In fairness to SigmUnd though, he was the standout player of the NZFC so there was a fair idea of what he could produce. Who is the standout player in the Premiership? (Mulligan) Lookiing at Smeltz's bio, he had a couple of dozen game in the old NSL before 20 then came to NCR and tore it up... They have something there to show for it.
Its funny if you look at it from a cricket aspect, that NZC pick players that have zero domestic pedigree when they pick their T20 side. Then again that probably doesn't say much for T20 being the hit and giggle game it is.
edit: only 1 season in England did Smeltz not have a good one. His Wikipedia bio shows that from about 20 onwards, he has a really good strike rate (NCR, AFC Wimbledon, A League)
