He wasn't seen with his rumoured romantic partner Tammy Hembrow on his arm however, confirming earlier in the day that he was taking his jiu-jitsu coach instead.
Smith is in for a chance at the win at tonight's award, with many tipping him to take out the Brownlow after emerging as a household name this season.
Earlier in the day, Smith spoke about his rumoured romance with millionaire influencer Tammy Hembrow after they were spotted on multiple dates together.
The cosy photos came after the influencer's short-lived marriage with Love Island Australia star Matt Zukowski, which lasted just eight months.

Smith and Hembrow were spotted, hand in hand, at the Gold Coast's Burleigh Pavilion on Saturday August 9.
Hembrow then posted a picture of Smith's hand on her thigh at dinner a few weeks later.
Smith said on The Kyle and Jackie O show on Monday morning ,that Hembrow, 31, would not be attending the Brownlow Medal with him.
"What's going on? Are you taking Tammy tonight or not?" host Kyle Sandilands asked.
"No, I'm not... I didn't want to bore her with footy all night," he replied.
"She's not a big footy fan. And we're just mates."

Sandilands' co-host Jackie 'O' Henderson then jumped in and asked if the pair were exclusively dating.
"No, we're just mates," he replied once again.
The AFL star then said he would be taking his jiu-jitsu coach to the Brownlow instead.
He went on to say he's been single for a year and a half and was enjoying it, but is "keen to get a missus eventually."
