Really impressed by both players today , Bowie puts in a really good shift upfront and Mulligan looks strong and a quality signing . Going to be two big players for us this season.

Agreed. Mulligan looked very handy, could fill that Triantis shaped hole in midfield I reckon.
Wouldn’t be against trying him in that role in fairness , looks strong and certainly won’t be out muscled while also direct too .Quote:

Mulligan is best at right wing back
Hope we don’t try him in the middle, go and sign a proper centre mid if Triantis isn’t coming back
Completely different players, Nectar was so good for us because of his control and composure which is probably Mulligan's biggest downfallQuote:

When Triantis was playing CH for us I don’t think anyone would have thought how well he’d adapt to the midfield role he ended up playing. We need a Defensive midfielder though I think Mulligan would probably be the best option to play there as things stand in this moment of time .Quote:

While that is true Mulligan has already demonstrated his strengths and weaknesses as a midfielder and his passing and control are part of the latter categoryQuote:

Mulligan & O'Hora would be better.Quote:

RWB is a position I’ve felt we needed to strengthen, and in mulligan he instantly does that. If we don’t get Triantis I think we need a new centre mid instead of playing mulligan there and Cadden on the right
That isn't what the club indicated when he signed. He was described as a defensive midfielder that can play right wing back.Quote:
