    yeah he is bad but no worse than rankin and on current form, Miller

    also maybe he was kept on cos he is one of a few players above 4ft?

    I thought he had a decent game. Got in there, got the ball. The problem I saw was at times the entire central midfield was trying to get the ball and he was in the middle of it.

    The bloke behind me was going mental every time de Graff got the ball. He made some decent passes, but others wasted them.

    I'm not saying he was completely faultless today though.

    Agree, went through large periods of the game without realising he was there. takes unseen work to previously unscaled levels.

    Agree with you mate thought earlier on he was ok but with nobody to help him in that midfield made him look worse

    That was by no means the worst performance I have seen from De Graaf

    No, he's not the best but there's been plenty worse than him and a few of them are still getting a game !

    My God, I must have.

    He was totally lost, never jumped off the ground for a header, never tackled and was a complete and utter passenger.

    However you could add most of them to that list.

    Off all the signings Hughes made I don't think any of them have been a success.

    de Graaf

    Have to disagree with the OP, thought de Graaf was one of the few on show today to at least have a bit of spirit and fight about him, he was in no way the worst player for us today imo.

    Agree completely. Wasn't afraid to put hmself about today too. We could've done with a few more like him imo.

    Agreed. I thought, in the first half at least, he was one of the best Hibs players on the pitch... He was getting stuck in, and trying to make it happen, didn't succeed, and by all means was not faultless.

    De Graaf strikes me as someone who's been a good player, but has lost a vital yard of pace so can't quite get to the place he wants to be in time to do what he wants to do. I wonder how often Hughes or his scouts actually watched him last season.

    Good to see he learnt from our mistake with the first goal though, pity someone didn't take a similar booking then by doing what he did for his.

    Very possibly. Rankin gave him a good run for his money but De Graffe just shaves it for me.

    He wasn't great today but to single him out nonsense. The whole team was bad, de Graff was somewhere in the middle. Worse than Konre, Hurtado et al... No danger

    Agree. Our game plan for the first half was to punt the ball up to Riordan. If we're going to play like that then we need bigger players (FFS even Andy Walker could see this) and preferably someone who can make an attacking pass. However I would prefer if we just changed our tactics.

    Yep, don't want to make any snap judgements, he is definitely capable of worse, still at least it gets him noticed, but in a non positive way.

    I though it was just keepers you made daft claims about

    Had a good first half but dropped out the game after his booking. Looks a better player playing through the middle.

    That bad really ?

    Certain players always get the blame for teams poor performance how de graf can be singled out as worst player ever to pull on hibs jersey is beyond me as there were many poorer individual performances in this derby. Picked up a yellow for stopping Templeton going on a run , shame another 1 of 5/6 hibs players didnt do the same earlier as he ran away from Galbraith Millar cut inside Hart Bamba and Hanlon but lets blame DeGraf .

    Exactly, Nish was not playing today so lets blame De Graaf, who was imo one of our best players (which does not say much)
