I wondering would we get him back as it appeared that Gray liked him as he put him back into the team when he took charge .

After we moved him into midfield I think he’s looked good , Motherwell game he was excellent in and showed the quality has .

I think we have added a very decent player to our squad in Triantis …..

I think he looked very good in centre mid.

The games he played there against Rangers, Livi and Motherwell he was brilliant imo.

Only thing is I think part of it is how well he’ll grow and develop into the position, so bit disappointed we don’t have an option to buy

I think he looked very good in midfield.

He’s got a couple of things working against him - that we were supposedly trying to make a statement signing for another midfielder when he arrived, and the fact that he can be labelled makeshift CB playing in midfield. Neither are actually valid arguments.

My concern about Triantis is that his more questionable moments weren’t always attributable to playing centre half. If he’s going to be coming back to defend corners etc, he’s maybe going to have to watch his flailing arms. Also, he might want to check Joe Newell’s pus isn’t in the way when he’s trying to shell the ball up the park.

Other than that - based on his performances last season, I think we’ve signed a good midfielder.

Looked excellent in midfield last season, but think we used him as a Deep Lying midfielder, which is why I thought we brought Kwon on board.

Time will tell.

He didn't look brilliant in midfield IMO, he just looked better than he did as a centre half which wouldn't have been hard.

Agree he looked comfortable on the ball in midfield, he is also cover for Centre Back. Who could forget his amazing free kick at Ibrox, next time Nectar make sure it's opposition players.

It’s a big Meh from me. We need creativity in midfield, we’ve already got Amos, JDH, NMW, Kenneh, Kwon that can play in there. And we finished bottom 6 with Triantis playing last season.

This.☝️

After expecting us to sign a box to box, creative midfielder we've ended up with a poor centre back that will be utilised as yet another defensive midfielder.

Excuse me if I'm not getting too excited at the prospect.

I don’t think JDH or NMW are DM’s though, Kenneh I don’t think we will see playing and will be struggling to make the bench.

As another poster said having Kwon and Triantis could allow us to play Newell , Levitt or Rudi further up which might help with the midfield being creative.

What I find odd is surely Sunderland must be saying yes to the loan but wanting him to develop as a centre back ?

If Hibs play him a different position then surely Sunderland will be asking questions about how we develop him?

Obviously they probably have had chats about him playing CDM but doesn’t happen very often with loan players.

Yep. Folk have been going on forever about the fact we don’t have a proper defensive minded midfield player.

I think Kwon was assumed to be that as he is tall but I think he has largely played as an all round midfielder.

We certainly don’t have too many in that role.

For the past two seasons Joe Newell has far too often been expected to play two positions - a Six and an Eight. For me he is a natural Eight and so if Triantis and Kwon can cover Six then I'm happy.

We will be looking to buy a permanent Six next summer

Are they wanting him to develop as a centre back though or is it maybe accepted that he looks more comfortable playing as Defensive midfielder now .

Interesting in his interview after coming back when talking where Gray sees him playing , he says he’s happy Gray sees him playing in the position he most enjoys ( 1:30 ) ….

Think there is something in that counting against him with fan opinion of his signing. Staked with defensive midfielders, crying out for an attacking midfielder and publicly pursue McCowan the whole window. Talk of it being a done deal and talk of a plan B (for attacking midfielder) then sign the polar opposite in Triantis adding to the stacked quota of what we already have in there.

I like him and kinda wish we had an option to buy added into the loan deal. Thought he looked a bomb scare at CB, but a good player as a CDM. He's good on the ball and drives forward with it. Think Kwon is similar.

Looking forward to seeing him play more.

Before we signed Kwon and re-signed Triantis we had NOBODY with the physical capability to play defensive midfield.

Remember trying to defend high balls with McGinn, Stevenson, Porteous and Hanlon - an average height of 5'10". Defensive midfielder Jimmy Jeggo who was less than 11 stone soaking wet.

We now have two six foot athletic full backs, four centre halves at 6 foot two or three and two six foot plus defensive midfielders.

No more trying to shoehorn Newell, Campbell, Levitt or other unsuitable options into that role. Mackay and Gray are building a hard as nails, physical backline.

Anyone who hasn't noticed the improvement in height, physique and aggression hasn't been paying attention.

Amos JDH kenneh will have very little game time rightly so. Nothing in any of thier games that supply confidence.

Kwon and triantis learning a new position are massive upgrades on those three players. Unless they themselves dig deep and get in,but I highly doubt it.

Huge hopes for nectar in midfield.

Has it been confirmed there is no option to buy or are you presuming that because it hasn't been mentioned? I hope we'll be eager to buy him after a stellar season so it will be a shame if we're just adding value for Sunderland.

As someone who was never over 5'9" and has now shrunk by a couple of inches, my heart sinks whenever I see Hibs linked with a short player no matter what the position. Once in a blue moon we'll unearth a Lewey whose other attributes make up for being shorter than typical for their role, but in general I've seen them outpaced and pushed off the ball too easily by bigger players. Triantis can be a very intimidating presence in midfield.

You know what, I was a bit on the negative side on his signing. I was never that enamoured by him before and thought he was just a stopgap at times. But actually if he can carry on like he did today with Kwon and Newell further up at times then we might just be a better team for having him.

Hands up on Triantis - Thought it was a terrible deadline day signing and said as much. Thought he was between awful and average last season. MOM today, great performance. Him, Kwon and Ekpiteta thought were all very good. Big Marv looking far more solid last 2 games after a rough start, fair play.

Only one game and needs to hit the same standards but it was a very good 2nd debut fot Triantis

I called it a rubbish signing during the week. Can’t argue that he had a good display in the second half today and if he can keep that level of performance up then obviously it will have been well worth it. I remember feeling the same about NMW after his first couple of games though.

To be fair, Triantis did show some glimpses of that ability in his few midfield appearances. It was his appearances at centre half that were grim.

Definitely but even over the piece of his few games in midfield last year I felt he was just another pea in the pod of a poor midfield. Second half today was clearly a level above though so fingers crossed it continues. I’m probably guilty of forgetting how young he is due to his stature so there is time for improvement as well.

After some questions as to whether we would play both Kwon and Triantis, today proved that we can, and after the performance of both it’s going to be hard to leave one of them out of a starting 11.

If Triantis can keep this level of performance in the midfield then it can only augur well, particularly on a proper surface rather than the abomination of a surface today, which of course he adapted to very well.

A close contender with Youan for the “almost goal of the season” with that wonder run and shot that crashed off the upright. Can throw Myko’s long range effort into that mix as well!

Hopefully I feel more stupid about my opinion as the season goes. :agree:

It’s what the midfield lacked, a proper anchor to it. Has an easy out ball for our defenders, putting them under less pressure. Allows the other two midfielders to push forward more without making us vulnerable to a counter attack. Can also pass the ball and move with it.

Despite the clamour to bring in McCowan he wouldn’t have done the above. Triantis is a player worth spending that money on IMO, he’s young and very good at what he does.

Another former Central Coast Mariner.

I said at the time that while he was referred to as a centre half my memories of him in the A League were more as a left sided defensive midfielder.

He was very much an unsung hero in the Mariners championship winning side with his team mate Josh Nisbet being the standout talent.

Most pundits thought that Nisbet would play at a higher standard than Triantis, and it was a surprise that Triantis went to Sunderland, and Nisbet stayed home.

Nisbet ended up at Ross Cty, but I still harbour hopes that he may join his midfield mate in our colours, but I’ll guess we’ll have to wait a while for that to happen.

Much as we all love Hibs, many down South don't rate Scottish football at all... he's probably playing out of his skin to avoid ever having to have to come back up here.

I'd be surprised if the Hibs of the second half of last season was the happiest place to be, and having been here might have had an unintended consequence of making some people screw the nut.

Not going to get too excited about a player we weren't exactly raving about the last time he was here after just one game, but if he can continue to play well and even improve ( he's only 21 ) then we would have to be thinking about this.

The same goes for Kwon ... But if him and Triantis do become part of a midfield that is a big improvement the fly in the ointment is they are both loans, leaving us once again scrambling about next summer, by which time Joe Newell will be 32 and a bit, leaving us possibly looking for practically a whole midfield.

Triantis only cost Sunderland 300K so a deal for him might be eminently possible, especially if they get promoted.
Kwon not so much, only one year into a 5 year deal and already with a successful loan spell at St Mirren behind him. If he does well here I can't see Celtic, or him, being easy to deal with.

I think most rational folk will give more than a game before the knives come out. As always there will be extremes but I don’t think you’ll find any genuine Hibs fan that wants him to fail so they can say “I told you so”.


If it was the case that he went on to have lots of bad games then folk would, I think, be within their rights to feel that they saw it coming though.

And hopefully if he keeps playing the way he did on Sunday there will be plenty of folk happy to say they were completely wrong when they thought they could see it coming. I bet most folk want the latter scenario to play out.

Apparently, scouts for the Greek national team are monitoring his performances.

I’m really surprised that Australia didn’t call him up , I think Triantis has all the attributes to become a top player.

They’d maybe read the posts when he signed on social media from a large number of our ‘fans’ and thought let’s not bother😏

What a difference reading a thread that's become mostly positive about a hibs player.

Hopefully he keeps it up.

Said when he re-signed on loan I was gutted there wasn't an option to buy added in to the current deal. Not based off one performance against Killie either. Thought he stood out as soon as Montgomery moved him into CDM last season. Just full of attributes needed to succeed in that position for me.

Hoping Sunderland have a bumper of a season and get promoted, can't see him being in their plans in the Premier League.

Once again, I think he had a good game, really growing into that midfield role, him and Kwon will only get better with each game as well. We deserve a good midfield, after the last few years.

He looked really good - assured and strong. Much more like what I was expecting when he initially signed for us on loan.

Another good performance from him. I like Nectar and Kwon as a pairing, although like the rest of the team they were better second half than they were in the first.

After what Gray said I wonder maybe was there a confidence issue as we looked a totally different team in the 2nd half?

Kwon and Triantis seems like a great pairing. Kwon likes to push a little and find a pass or a shot whereas Triantis likes to sit and settle.

Seems like a great pairing to me !

Kwon has been a terrific signing for me and Triantis has been solid as well.

He’s a very good player. We needed a sitting midfielder who can let the others play, and he’s very good at it.

He can play a bit himself too.

Couple of odd passes. The free kick he passed straight to their centre forward being one, but at least he didn’t knock a team mate out in the process. Otherwise, thought he was good and helped us control things second half. Kwon was my MOTM but what a change to be talking about positive midfield performances, which I thought we got at Kilmarnock as well.
