And as Jordan Rhodes contorted to seal his third in their a rampant 4-0 win at Nottingham Forest on Saturday, he became the first man since Derek Dooley back in 1951 to score an first-half away treble, that time at West Ham United.
But who has scored more recent trios and what of Rhodes’ penchant for match balls?
Let’s take a look at a few interesting facts around the forward, the Owls and hat-tricks.

3. Up for the cup
You don't have to look too far into the annals of history for Rhodes' last hat-trick. He bagged three in Norwich City's 4-3 Carabao Cup win over Wycombe Wanderers last season, while on loan from Wednesday. | Getty Images Photo: Alex Morton
