Hogg Solid Today

[mandiandihibs]

He gets a bit of stick from time to time, but just finished watching the whole game again, must say Hoggy was immense. Stood up to the long throw onslaught and dealt with everything thrown at him. Nothing fancy, did what he needed to. Murray didn't put a foot wrong either, another clean sheet is a positive.

[Phil MaGlass]

You are kidding eh? unless you were watchin a different game from me:confused: he made so many basic errors in the first half it was frightening,his positioning was gash and only by LUCK they didnae score, one or two good tackles does not mean he had a good game in my book.Mibbe Im wrong?
Although it is good to see hertz, 2nd bottom, equal.

You are smoking too much, sweetie :wink:

I thought Hogg and Murray were brilliant today :agree:

All defenders make mistakes, our's didnae cost us :agree:

Given they're a big physical team and no Bamba today, well done to both Hogg and Murray :thumbsup:

[heretoday]

He was great in the second half but I was very uncomfortable with the defence earlier. It looked uncertain and clumsy.

[down-the-slope]

I thought all 4 defenders stood up well today when I thought we might have missed Bamba.

Only complaint would be too few balls played out from the back through midfield in first half, resorting to humping it up to Nish who couldn't make a stamp stick at the moment

[Ell_Chrisso]

Infact :top marks for the thread, to the original post.

Its not often Chris Hogg does get a mention when he deserves one. I thought he was superb today. Never looked under pressure.. Won plenty of headers, and stayed solid all game along with the man beside him Ian Murray.

I think this is one reason we are doing well this season, the fact that we are defending well!

CH was outstanding today so yeah, you must have been watching a different game?

[Danderhall Hibs]

I'm not a big fan of Hogg's but I thought he had a good game today. Their barrage of long throws, big punts and corners were all dealt with comfortably IMO.

[Broken Gnome]

So much better. Not going to go over the top in praise as it's about time he had a decent game, but really good today.

As comfortable a Hibs defensive display, particularly defending crosses, as I've ever seen against Hearts,.

[AllyF]

I thought Hogg dealt well with everything thrown his way today. Particularly at the corners and long-throws which just kept on coming.

The defence as a whole were rock solid.

[Hibee_Lisa]

Good game from CH today, not one of his biggest fans but credit where credits due :agree: Keep it up.

It would seem that we were all watching a different game than you today. :wink:

I thought Hogg was great today... He's been gradually improving again.

Most of the stick he gets is uncalled for.

It's easy to point to the captain of a team.

[Alex Trager]

Am being deadly serious the whole back four were solid today!!

[NaeTechnoHibby]

I know this sounds pish but.... Hoggy can jump like Cannavaro( not quite but any watcher will get my drift) or a Salmon and he gets punished :bitchy:

I have seen both players punished because they can "jump" :thumbsup:

He also seems to get the right side defence if he's in a 3 man defence :agree:

Lay off Hoggy IMO :thumbsup:

Cheers for that. Hoggy can be a frustrating player, but I watched closely today, hardly missed a header and cleared his lines time after time. Good to hear I wasn't the only one who noticed! Need that every week now!

[Perspective]

Thought Hogg was our most impressive player today. A real captain's performance, despite all the stick he takes for apparently lacking leadership qualities.

Organised those around him well, was brave, won his headers and kept it simple with the ball.

Pass marks also to Murray, Stevenson and Wotherspoon.

:agree: And the keeper.

[blackpoolhibs]

Hogg was very good today, thats a sentence i never thought i'd say. He needs to play like that every week.:top marks

[The Voice Of Reason]

Hogg was very good today, thats a sentence i never thought i'd say. He needs to play like that every week.:top marks

:agree: Thought he played really well against Aberdeen last week also. Give me a solid defender over a "flashy" one every day of the week !

[Perspective]

:agree: And the keeper.

Still not convinced.

[Hibs Spain]

:agree: And the keeper.The telly obviously lies.. His phobia of coming for crosses or long throws couldn't have manifested itself accurately.Minute 69..a cross came over and from where I was sitting passed him by less than three feet with no attacker in sight ..He stays on his line and starts shouting at the guy at left back to clear the ball up the left wing, in a very authorative manner:bye ..Near the end he spillsa bread and butter ball,nearly a pen as a result and you think he's had a good game :faf:

[Danderhall Hibs]

It's such a shame that you can't see past this. Your posts are normally really good but you just won't give this guy any credit for some reason.

Was I not at the match? Another clean sheet - that's all that matters, isn't it?

And another "nearly" penalty - if the refs keep getting the decisions right we'll be ok. :rolleyes:

[lucky]

Idont like Hogg as he could not pass water but today he was our MoM. Won all the headers he played very well

[Perspective]

I've no axe to grind with Stack and, obviously, as a Hibs fan I want him to do well.

I just don't like the aimless punts, inability to claim crosses or his idiotic behaviour (streaking, winding up oppoistion fans etc).

I realise the latter point might get me grief but I think too often in this country people associate 'character' with people acting like tubes.

[euro Hibby]

credit where credit is due, Hogg had a very good game. He was busy for much of the 90 minutes and was never flustered. OK Nade is no great shakes but he is built like a bus. The fact is the defence could have played for 24 hours and still not lost a goal. Hearts deadball delivery was crap all day. Time and time again they floated the ball in and our defence just dealt with everything .......

I saw him claim a cross and also punching another one away today. No doubt they were straight at him or something though...

Eh?

He did excellent at coming for crosses today. Punched at least two of them out and at one point he was so desperate to get to the ball that he ended up heading it clear. Thought Stack had a great game today.

Whats Stack done thats been so bad? :confused:

He seems fairly confident at claiming crosses and punching them IMO.

His kicking isn't always that great. But I'd much rather see us building from the back than simply hoofing it up the park.

[WindyMiller]

I was undecided before (despite HibSpain's forcefull attempts), but Stack's performance to-day confinced me that he's just the keeper we need.

Idont like Hogg as he could not pass water but today he was our MoM. Won all the headers he played very wellHe had an average game,which is a few notches up from his usual.Was sitting with daughter No one during a six or seven pass move ..Ball went to Hogg,he lined up for a 50/50 lob up front ...I said we're going to lose possession here cos of this aimless punt ..And surprise surprise....

Sorry, but you talk pish. Hogg was immense today, won every header that came near him.

:faf: :faf: :faf:

You were on the wrong channel mate! :wink:

Hogg and Murray were possibly our two best players today IMO! :agree:

Had they not been we could easily have lost a goal or two with the continual high ball launched into our box although (:eek: :woohoo: :shocked:) Stack did come off his line to help out two or three times especially in the second half! :cool2:

Your constant attention seeking must be working as I heard 2 Hibbies on the way into the ground actually mention your name (in completely derogatory terms of course).

Must be agony to see him have another clean sheet eh :bye:

Oh and well done Hoggy, wasn't up against much but dealt with everything very well indeed.

[Broken Gnome]

Hibs keeper in clangerless Tynecastle debut appearance gets stick.

[AFKA5814_Hibs]

Thought the whole defence coped well with the corners, long balls and throw ins into the box., was a bit worried that without Bamba this would be our downfall today.

Glad to also see that the goalkeeping howlers which has blightened every Hibs goalkeeper in recent seasons didn't show face today. Stack doesn't come off his line as much as he should, but I do feel that with Stack in goals we're less likely to lose the freakish goals we've lost under previous goalkeepers.

He didn't have a lot to do today tbh BH but he did come for a couple of high balls and punched clear so that's progress as far as I'm concerned! :agree:

Hogg and Murray comfortably dealt with most high balls that came in today and played well together IMO! :wink:

Hogg was very good,:agree: as was murray, my MOM.:top marks Stack again showed why Yogi plays him before Maka, we had another new defence today, and Stack organised them as if they had played together all season. Another game without a calamity, its wonderful, i wonder if it will catch on?:greengrin

Yer wrong on todays performance Phil :wink:
,Im of the opinion that Hogg should never have got the captains armband , and in the first quarter of this season was the weakest link in the defence ,Yogis dropped him and hes came back made the odd mistake like most players do at times ,but credit where credits due he Hoggy was superb today just my 10p worth .

Yes they were good. Stack makes the position his own more with each passing game.

I think you are in the minority, you are the only one who thinks Maka is up there with Buffon, while thinking Stack is worse than Zibi. Most folk realise we have 2 keepers who are decent, you on the other hand cant see whats staring you right in the face.

:agree::agree::agree: hogg done a good job :thumbsup: im not hoggs biggest fan but he done well .

[sahib]

I find my self warming to Stack. He is sort of a non-keeper. He has a sort of less is more, minimalist, approach to keeping goal. I thought that when he had to act to help his defence he did it, but by and large he just lets them get on with it.

As pointed out earlier this is a Hogg thread.

Well done Hoggy :thumbsup:

[ceecee]

Thought Hogg was very good at winning headers and clearing his lines. But his distribution - a key part of defending IMO - was the usual cack. Reminded me of his Hamilton performance. But maybe that is influenced by Nish playing up front and we simply lump it up to him.

[Jonnyboy]

Hoggy's had a bit of an up and down season IMO but he was good today. If I had to pick a fault it would be that he sends too many clearing headers into the middle of the park when he should be aiming to head the ball to either wing

[Hibercelona]

Please point me to a post where I've been fantasizing about Maka..

You're going on and on and on, and you pick out every little thing that Stacks does and you put a negative spin on it.

On the other hand... You were always quick to defend Makas clangers.... You even said he done some of them on purpose. :crazy:

If you're that deluded... May I recommend a place full of your type? :cool2:

[EasterRoad4Ever]

Thought Hogg had a good game today, against arguably the worst strike force in the SPL :agree:

Overall, Hibs were awful against bottom 6 fodder. The only players worth a mention were Murray and Wotherspoon. The rest we pretty poor. 2 points dropped meekly.

[ian cruise]

hogg was great today, showing the form of last couple of seasons

would it be crazy to suggest trying a 3 man defence and lt lewis and wotherspoon play further up field

Dear Hibs Spain

Whilst undoubtably you are entitled to your opinion, please take note of the following points:


Arguing with the admins is NOT a good idea unless you want a ban or expulsion
This is a Chris Hogg thread as pointed out previously. IMHO, I think the Capt. has his best game this season.
I'm sorry, but it is slightly deranged to continue arguing that your version of events/opinion is the only truth. Surely the fact that Hibs, not just Stack, kept a clean sheet today is the only point of the exercise?
Yours in a concerned, fellow Hibs.netter way
