Good to see Hoggy going into the West stand with strip on today. Hope he enjoyed the win.

Already Scotland's greatest ever rugby player IMO.

I saw him earlier in the season - think it was the other game v Aberdeen. I hadn’t realised he was a Hibee until then.

Between him & Hastings, if you at ability rather than number of caps, Hogg blows him out the water. Originally Posted by Benny Brazil

Hastings and Irvine (and that’s just two played his position) might be aggrieved at that! Hibee or not what’s he won? Weve also have a decent share or world class scrum half’s. Just curious as Originally Posted by Cocaine&Caviar

You your reasoning?

There are other rugby players other than fullbacks. Great player still has someway to go to be the greatest. Originally Posted by Cocaine&Caviar

One of the best Scottish rugby players I've seen, such a talent. Always good to have noteworthy Hibees taking a real interest in the team.

It was also good to read during the week that John Rutherford, another Scotland and British Lion great, possibly our greatest ever stand off half and a massive Hibs fan has recovered from prostate cancer. Good on you John. GGTTH.

Carlsberg and week-ends
Hibs hump the Dons and, last night, Edinburgh see off Ulster to take a play-off place in the Pro-14. Just need Scotland and Hibs double next week-end.

Played against both Irvine and Hastings and both fantastic players. You could not get near Irvine he was so quick and Hastings was captain courageous strong and impossible to bring down! Originally Posted by Cocaine&Caviar

Still looks like Hoggie will be better than both though, he has attacking and defending and creating all in his skillset!
Still take Alex Edwards before any of them though!

Andy Irvine was an absolute thoroughbred of a rugby player, head and shoulders above Hogg in my opinion. And a really decent fella to boot. Originally Posted by Drumlanrig

Similar to Hogg, when AI caught an 'up and under' from deep you instantly got up off your seat because you knew he would change a game. At a time when it was 'amateur', what an athlete he was too. Yet to see a better player than John Rutherford though..........grace personified on a rugby pitch.

Ah good Sir is it not so fine to be discussion the attributes of a number of fine Scottish fullbacks! Aye Rud was and always will be one of my favourite 10s! Originally Posted by truehibernian

Agreed Irvine will always be up there in the gods, however when I think back to how much space and time there was in the game then, I remain convinced the Hogg would compete with and surpass any who have gone before.
Opinions eh!

It's strange how a post can develop on Hibs Net but the best Scottish rugby player in my life time has just got to be Jim Renwick - a true genius!

I was lucky to sort out tickets today for him, great guy does all he can to help out with requests from Hibs.
Done a talk for the development squad earlier in the season, is sorting out a visit for some of the hibs staff to visit the Scotland training camp whilst the 6 nations is on so they can possibly learn from other sports.
Sorted sir david gray with a ticket last week for the game and gave him his jersey after the game.
Hoggy has really bought into the HIBEES way and gets a buzz out of the games I suppose it's a good change from the rugby.
As always let's enjoy his talent whilst he is on the top of his game in his chosen sport and enjoy that he's s Hibby too. 🇳🇬
