Smith successfully kicked three of his four goal attempts in the victory, as Liam Farrell came off the bench on 77 minutes to make his first international appearance since October 2021.
Tyler Dupree, who is yet to make an appearance in the series, will be hoping to feature in the third and final match at Headingley Stadium next Saturday.

Laureane Biville opened the scoring for France who added further tries through Perle Ramazeilles and Dorine Samarra, before York Valkyrie’s Georgia Taylor crossed for Wales late on.
