Tom Rogic retires

[PatHead]

Not sure if there ever was a chance of us signing him or if the rumours were just because he is Australian.

Anyway he has retired from football and returned to Australia.

What rumours?

[MWHIBBIES]

Was zero to suggest he was coming to Hibs. Great player, but very lazy and injury prone.

I would take that ‘ very lazy ‘ every time

I think it was just his style the guy was class in a glass but cursed with injury

6 SPL titles 5 Scottish Cups 5 League Cups 1 A League 51 caps for Australia 10 goals SPL player of the year 2021-22 awarded by the players ( PFA) so they wouldn’t award it to someone perceived to be lazy

I remember him scoring winners in cup final’s versus Aberdeen and Hearts and ripping us a new one at Hampden without even breaking sweat

As I said it was just his style he was a class act and I wish him a happy retirement

Very Lazy?

Not too many ‘very lazy’ players play in championship and cup winning sides I’d suggest.

Change very lazy for very talented.

[JimBHibees]

What rumours?

There was some chat Hibs had offered him a deal

[MWHIBBIES]

Change very lazy for very talented.

Exceptionally talented. But he wasn't high in work rate.

You know he can be a fantastic player and be a bit lazy? Messi won the world cup doing absolutely zero defensively. Rogic was very good. I never said otherwise.

You said ‘ very lazy ‘ which is so not true

As someone else said substitute it for very talented

I have seen Rogic back helping out his defence loads especially in the League Cup Final when we had them under the cosh and they were praying for the final whistle

I would describe him more effortless like a finely tuned engine just sublimely purring along a la Pat Stanton

Maybe you should engage your brain before posting rubbish

Okay. Not quite sure that was required mate. You can describe him however you like, same as I have. Think we both agree he was excellent and talented. He's also retiring at 30.

OK apology accepted 😂

Is he retiring to go to his bed like?! 😂

It’s your analysis of him as a player and his decision to retire that comes across as lazy.

Not even going to start on the crap Messi comment..

So he wasn't a great player then? Because that's what I said multiple times.

He was certainly a bit lazy IMO and certainly quite injury prone. Really don't see that as ****ing mental. Certainly not worthy of a .net circle jerk, but crack on if you want.

You insinuated he’s retiring at 30 through laziness, in your last reply to Billy.

No cracking on from me. Was bored before even started typing this reply, and I’ve seen this movie all too many times.

So go ahead, have the last word. Tell us that’s not what you said and/or why you’re right. Someone else can indulge you if they so wish.

Tom Rogic retired at 30 and returned to Australia to spend more time with his family

After 7 years of IVF treatment they now have a two year old girl and his wife is expecting twins

I suppose he has earned his money

Family comes first

Plenty good memories though and a great career

[hibees 7062]

He helped us win the Scottish cup
