The 25-year-old took to Instagram to “apologise for how some of the comments have been received” not long after the podcast interview blew up.
And on Tuesday, he told 9 News that he does “regret how it happened.”
After the Storm bowed out of the finals, Smith, along with two of his Storm teammates, Cameron Munster and Chris Lewis were caught on video in a room where there was a white substance on the table.
The trio were fined and will miss the opening round of next season.
