Regardless of trasnfer fees. And to be honest we're kidding ourselves if we think it's 7 figures. I think the real clutch element to this signing is Plymouth sit top of the League 1 ladder but will be well aware a lot can change between now and the end of the season. They may very well be signing purely on potential but they must believe he could be Championship quality, and believe he has the goods to be an integral part in their ability to not only, maintain a strong push for promotion but stay afloat in the next tier should they get there.

He's definitely come on leaps and bounds each season. He has a lot more physical presence nowadays and the shots he makes now are real class. It's just the ones he misses that have driven me up the bloody wall as fan. But what we've got is a home-grown striker who is driven and I think really loves his football and is eager to kick on. And Plymouth are getting a young prospect who can keep on developing and is malleable enough to keep upping their game and learning new tricks. If he can really zero in on consistency and composure in the final third during his time there, the sky is the limit. And that could be a bloody awesome thing for the All Whites as Chris Wood enters the latter stages of his career. 

Really excited to follow his progress from here, and absolutely stoked for our boy!
