Never seen him play but he seems to bang in the goals for the development team. Does anyone who watches him regularly think he's ready to make a step-up?

Only seen him a couple of times this season but watched him a lot last season. Not ready imo.
Cummings is often quoted as being a success story of being thrown into the 1st team and scoring goals. He certainly ended up a success but it took him 16 (I think) games to get his first goal and he looked lost in a fair few games before that, admittedly with plenty mitigating circumstances.
I'd class Shaw as a bit behind were Jason was at this stage of his development with Hibs.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years

Too lightweight still, I reckon.
Although he nearly got a great goal in Lewy's testimonial, hit the bar.They've only gone and done it! They've only gone and won the Scottish Cup! What kept you, Hibs?!

Seen him a few times and don’t think he’s ready, I’m not sure he’ll ever be ready but I hope I’m wrong

Shaw appears to have an instinctive knack of scoring goals for fun, much as O'Connor and Riordan did.
We won't know what he is capable of unless he gets a run of first team games behind him.
Neil Lennon is bringing him along nicely and will introduce him when he feels the time is right or circumstances dictate.
I keep my fingers crossed that we have a gem on our hands.

Cummings got half a season to get himself up to speed in first team football where he didnt really contibute much. All youngsters should be afforded the chance to come in make mistakes and learn. The likes of Scott Martin & Fraser Murray have rerely played a bad game for us but the chances are wont make it at Hibs as we would rather bring someone in than give the oppertunity.

Was surprised he got on ahead of Murray but took his chance very well. Promising.

Some boy in section B4 had a breakdown down when he came on. These guys are the future. 18 year old and a cup semi, give him the experience of these games and reap the rewards in the future.

Hmm, not sure about that. Definitely on the bench though.

Well done to the lad. Fantastic. Needs to knock on now and cement his place in the team - Alex Harris scored his first goal at Hampden in a semi final and he didn't reach his potential.
With the right coaching, hard work and the right direction the lad will be very good however. Bags of potential.

And yes, I realise Shaw is the player I've mentioned in both of them, and like I said, it worked so fair play, that's why Lennon is the manager and I'm not, but I can't blame people for being a bit sceptical at the time of the sub. I know I was.

Great to see Shaw seize the moment and show us that he can also score goals at the highest level in Scotland. Doing so regularly is now the next question. Will Neil Lennon throw him in against Hearts for example? It's exciting to see a young talent break through. Still early days, but Ollie will go to bed tonight buzzing.
While we're talking of goal scoring, what on earth has become of Murray after his early season goal blitz?

Oli scored half that today so I'd take nothing less than £17.5m.

Glad to see him get a chance. I've seen him a few times in the dev team, not loads, but enough to form the impression that he has quick feet and an instinct to score. He puts me in mind of Peter Crouch and if he grows into anything even approaching that then we will be very fortunate.Last edited by Mibbes Aye; 21-10-2017 at 08:21 PM.
There's only one thing better than a Hibs calendar and that's two Hibs calendars
