Doidge

[Since452]

Surprised not to see a thread. Another game another goal. How long have we been crying out for a player like that? Good display, even in that horrid first half.

[Seveno]

Worked his socks off and scored again. Motm for me.

My MOTM. Yes the half time subs changed the game but Doidge was very good for the whole game

wait for the ''but he never strikes the ball well enough or the goals are flukes''

[Pretty Boy]

He's the master of the scrappy goal.

Probably the only player to get pass marks for the 1st half tonight and played his part in the improved 2nd half.

Decent night at the office for him.

[The Spaceman]

He's been brilliant since Heckingbottom left. A real handful and never stops running. Has really good control in bringing down high balls and shows glimpses of good strength and good feet.

[Jdawg]

Brilliant. First half, not one player was close to him when he was doing well to hold possession. Thankless task.

got his goal and I’m general, a great performance. Maybe he can teach Kamberi how to bring a ball down?

[JohnM1875]

MOTM for me tonight as well. Never stops trying, excellent at holding the ball up and linking play and pops up at the right place right time for another goal.

Never thought I would be saying this after the start he had. But it was just that, a start. Playing really well now.

[The Harp Awakes]

My MOTM. Yes the half time subs changed the game but Doidge was very good for the whole game

Agreed, Doidge was the only one who got pass marks in the first half. Loved the way he just bounced up when the Hamilton Centre Half smashed him and got a yellow in the 2nd.

[Diclonius]

Extremely intelligent player.

[Hibbyradge]

I thought Stevenson had a very solid first half.

[Eyrie]

The Artful Doidger.

[Gloucester Hibs]

One of his best performances for us, would probably give him MOTM too based on his showing over the full 90 minutes. Boyle and Newell also candidates.

[Hi Heid Yin]

I concur with previous posters: Doidge is a delight.
He has come good after struggling under Heckingbottom.

[Radium]

The only bright spot in the first half was his interchange with Boyle down the right

I thought he was a dud but happy to be proved wrong. Hold up play excellent and lots of nice link ups.

[BILLYHIBS]

Just what others have said only HIBS player to get pass marks first half

Singled out for some rough treatment but kept his head up and kept bouncing back for more deserved his goal

His all round play has improved leaps and bounds and he really looks as though he is enjoying life at HIBS

I like him

[hibee_girl]

He was great tonight. As others have said he was the only one in the first half to get pass marks.

His goal was such a typical Doidge goal :greengrin

He was my MOTM

[Ozyhibby]

I like Doidge. A real handful for centre half’s. MOTM for me.

How many goals does he have now?

[MWHIBBIES]

Better than Shankland

[B.H.F.C]

Can hold on to the ball as well as anybody we’ve had up front for a long time. Some decent link up play as well.

Becoming one of our main players.

[Hibeesmad]

He's always in the right place at the right time, exactly what you ask for from a striker.

[ancient hibee]

Looked a lot sharper tonight.

[wookie70]

I'm going to change my mind on him. I thought he was very good on Sunday and did well again tonight.He is moving better now and looking sharper. possibly the only player with pass marks in the first half

[I_Love_Latapy]

He was my MOTM too. As other posters have pointed out before on other threads (sorry forgotten who), Doidge is always following up in the six yard box whenever we score. This time it paid off and he netted the rebound off the post. Great to see.

Great movement off the ball, creates space, works well with Boyle in particular.

[EAZY-ME]

Hes been a decent signing after a shaky start...... could hit the 15 goal mark pretty soon

[The 90+2]

Good contribution every single match. How can people not love The Vegan Nish? Works his socks off, always finds himself in the best positions and doesn’t lose heart when it doesn’t come off?

[The 90+2]

He missed a few to begin with but even as a lone striker his link up play and movement off the ball has always been there.

[hibsbollah]

Veganism. It's the way forward.

[jacomo]

Fair play.

He’s got the right attitude and is scoring goals. Well played big man.

[greenlex]

I called him an upgrade on Kamberi after the Dunfermline pre season game. I think I called it correctly.

[MrRobot]

Very good game tonight, all round play was excellent.

[Bishop Hibee]

He played well without any help in the first half. Decent second half eclipsed by the subs and Boyle who came into a game. A different player from the one I slated on here earlier in the season.

[Crab apple]

Works extremely hard, good in the air and most importantly he scores goals. He’ll win over his doubters of which I was one.

[Danderhall Hibs]

Very good tonight.

Happy to say I was right all along. :greengrin

[Hibbyradge]

That's such a crap nickname for the player. Gonny no?

[Crab apple]

He was certainly much more effective than Kamberi tonight.

[Borderhibbie76]

It wont be Doidge losing his place in starting 11 when we sign another striker that's for sure...1st pick just now. Same cant be said for Flo...if wed had a 4th sub available tonight am sure he would have been hooked...was awful

[hibsbollah]

He was certainly much more effective than Kamberi tonight.

Flo's so wasteful with possession.

[calumhibee1]

Absolutely love the guy.

[Since452]

Took him a while to settle in but I don't think it'll be long before he's attracting suitors if he keeps this up. Is all round game is very good

[Allant1981]

I got pelters from a few commenting on this very thread earlier in the season for backing him, yip he missed a few easy chances, especially against aberdeen but he was bringing a lot more than just goals then, glad to see him scoring and getting the plaudits he deserves now

[Brightside]

Best player on the work for me. Never stopped working.

[MagicSwirlingShip]

Really like the big man. Comes across humble & considered in interviews, works hard for the team and is getting his just rewards.

Long may it continue.

If we can improve the service into our front three of Boyle, Kamberi & Doidge and supplement with another (I like the idea of this Nisbet) then we’ll be laughing.

[Hibernian Verse]

Great player. I had to sit and listen to the "supporter" behind me slating him all game and describing him regularly as a "dope" and a "carthorse". It's amazing what people can make themselves see and believe.

He didn't even celebrate the goal he scored!

[Bostonhibby]

Really pleased he's come good, like the guy a lot. Grafter and puts the ball in the net. First name on the team sheet just now.

What’s that now? 11 in 27?

Still got A minimum of 17 games left, could easily find himself on 18+

If he does I imagine their will be some bids from English clubs in the summer.

Hes not a natural finished by any means and I’m less than convinced about his actual execution of most of his shots. However, he’s a poacher and always seems to find himself in the right position which is something we’ve been missing for a long time.

Hes a really likeable lad who appears to be living every moment at the club.

I’m a fan of his and absolutely love it when he grabs a goal.

[Captain Trips]

The big chap has turned from Hans Eskilsson to Hans Krankl to a matter of weeks.

Agree with this, I love the guys to pieces, but even I can admit that his finishing sometimes is a bit off. Like you say, it's his hard work to get into the right positions that gets him his goals. Even last night, he was very alert to follow in Boyle's shot just in case, and it paid off. Think he's a lovely player to have in any side, and long may his good form continue

[Shrekko]

Making a case for Hibs POTY....

[Onion]

Has there been a more dramatic transformation of a player in one season at ER than Doidge ?

[Keith_M]

Boyle was probably MoTM, but you can't fault Doidge for his overall scoring rate since Hecky's departure.

He went from seven goals in five games to zero from the next five... but hopefully that's him back on form again, with two from two

Great jump on him. Not as tall as you would think. Hanlon taller when they were interviewed after the game

[#persevered]

Steven MacLean - 2 goals
Steven Naismith - 3 goals
Conor Washington - 2 goals
Uche Ikpeazu - 2 goals
Total - 9 goals

Doidge - 11 goals.

Amusing.

To put that into perspective, Steven Naismith is their key player and has only scored three more goals in the Scottish Premiership than me this season and I'm a fat bloke in his mid thirties.

Newell?

Doidge started ok, then dipped, now is doing ok again.

Newell was written off as useless in September, people raving about his performance last night and demanding he starts the next game.

[Northernhibee]

Joe Newell.

[Unseen work]

Noticed before he’s not the tallest, Kamberi is quite a bit bigger than him also.

[Hibs90]

He's not really your typical Hibs striker. See Cummings, Griffiths, Deek etc. That's probably why he gets a bit of stick but he's a goal scorer and they all count. Who was the last striker we had that would win almost every header? He has to work hard and get himself into the positions to score those goals so fair play. Keep it up sir.
