So... Smeltz or Wood in the starting XI for the All Whites quals?
Chill out I didn't say it wasn't a good hat trick - all hat tricks are good. Just pointed out that all three goals were rather soft. Thats just a fact especially if you are comparing to the goals he usually scores.
Suppose what I was getting at was that a Goal is a Goal, you dont get "extra" for a 30 yard screamer
Even then would not say it was all that soft. Two from the edge of the area one a tap in after some good anticipation for him to react and get in the six yard box. Goal keeping may not have been great admittedly but would still not call it (or indeed any hat trick) soft

Fuck this stupid game
Hi Toplefty, How many hat tricks have you scored?
I call yarn on that.
But his point is valid, the 3rd goal in particular was terrible keeping but then wood has likely had to put up with some stunning saves denying him goals, take the good with the bad. Is pretty cool checking on the websites and seeing a kiwi knocking them in regularly and getting rated so highly.
Fair point about the step up and managers looking to bring in proven quality.
However, I can't recall too many Championship players banging them in as regularly as he is and as young as he is over the last few years. The only one that comes to mind was Earnshaw, who is a completely different typ of player and was also a few years older when given a chance.
Truth is we'll never know until he finally gets a decent crack at it.
Quick question... are Championship strikers generally seen as better players than those in the Scottish Premier League (Celtic and Rangers really) because players making that move have been hit and miss also.
Burnleys Charlie Austin is in fire..again.
A small town in Europe........looking to bounce straight back up....well that aint going to happen
Got no clue if it's really true, but someone posted on the Foxes forums that Wood is the leading goal scorer in Europe in 2013 at the moment. Messi who?
It is only 15 days into 2013, and lots of the other european leagues breaked over xmas period, so its probably right

To the tune of 'aga do':

On his head, on his chest, he is up there with the best'

One of New Zealand's best performing Footballers Chris Wood joins us now
I like the Gold one too
fuck off - that is sung about Carlton Cole (the player Chris Wood hopes to become if he finds a genie in a bottle) and no one else.
All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight
As I walked past my local Ladbrokes this morning I saw that the offer in the window was Chris Wood to score first on Friday night. Putting down £10 would win me 80 apparently. Given that I have no idea how odds work over here, does that mean he is paying 8/1?

Watchandbet not working for me. Odd because it definitely used to.
Switched computers and it works.
Snuck a dollar or two on boro. Odds too good when everything is against the home side.
That haircut of Marshalls is worth a yellow card.

No, that would be wrong... (officially)
