Even a short contract until January would be a good result.
Teams like ours need consistent performers and Irvine fits the bill.
Would leave Hibs with only a quality goalkeeper to sign for our team to stay at our current level.
With the likes of Magennis hopefully kicking on next season after a good pre season and another couple of starters signed in the summer we would be a better equipped team next season which would keep Aberdeen in the rear mirror.
I hope we can get this deal done as I didn't think we would be able to keep Jackson beyond his short term deal.
I think we will see an even better player next season along with Cadden once they get a proper pre season with hibs. We had a lot of players playing together for the first time this season along with a few players making their breakthrough at first team level this year also which can only be good for next season

I think Jackson would fancy a crack at Europe next season.
In a parallel universe Ross Jack is giving an update on contract talks with Irvine Jackson...
I'm hopeful
My gut is saying that Ross wouldn't be talking openly about this if it didn't have a very high chance of happening/already close to being finalised.
Would be a great signing on a free.
When’s the Hibs.net exclusive interview oot?
If he signs up, it’s a coup for Hibs. There’s plenty to come from Irvine and he’ll be a tremendous asset to what is shaping up to be a formidable midfield.
I love the contrast between how our club is managed and those that are now floundering in our wake. Hibs have the chance to take advantage of how badly run our rivals are and build something substantial. We’re lucky to have an owner who is investing and a manager who knows what he’s doing.
This is probably the best transitional period we've ever had and is pretty ominous for our nearest challengers. Ross's first full season. He now has the foundations in place to build an extremely good legacy. Jackson Irvine signing would go a long way to that. Promising.
Hope we can get him signed up.
Would be a huge signing if we could get him for a couple of years. Been solid so far, with many glimpses of what I believe he would offer when fully fit, with a full preseason behind him.
Back in the day we signed the likes of Ricardo Vaz Te who were on their bike as soon as they could once their deals ran out.
The fact that we’ve got players with such a pedigree as Jackson Irvine willing to even discuss staying with us shows how well run a club we are.
It’s a good feeling.
I reckon he will sign on for another year if we finish third and get the European spot that guarantees us to be in a group stage.
I noticed that the interviewer singled out Irvine for praise in JR's post match interview, then an unusually long (for a player) post match interview with Irvine himself.
I was a wee bit surprised given that he wasn't a stand out today.
Maybe a wee announcement in the offing?
I really like Irvine and think he would be brilliant after a full pre season. Don’t think he gets the recognition for some of the passes he plays either, both today and even last week against QOTS.
Has the ability to play the Scott Allan pass which I was expecting.
I would play him as part of the central 2 with Gogic though and have Newell further forward if that’s the 3 we’re going with.
Newell better on the half turn and playing in tight spaces. Irvine better defensively.
Agree with you.
He was disappointing today I think but that final 5-10% of sharpness when he is fully fit could make a world of difference.
Jack Ross clearly favours a pretty cautious, tactical approach. We need a player or two who can stay disciplined but also knows when to take a risk or grab an opportunity.
Irvine isn’t playing with that level of freedom yet imo.
