Not knocking Jason Cummings at all as he was brilliant for us in scoring the goals to get us up and is forever a Scottish cup winning legend, but what a great thing it is to have a striker who chases lost causes and harassing defenders. He will make things happen out of nothing. Terrific start from the lad!!

A lot off hibbys didn't fancy him when he was signed but the laddy has answered that on the park by scoring goals and working his bahooky off running for every ball and HE IS the type of player that I love in a hibernian shirt, sweat blood and snotters every game . All power to him

I loved Jason Cummings, but Simon Murray is a different type of player. He probably won't score as many, but he is such a trier and he can back that up with goals and assists.
He could turn out to be one of the best signings we've ever made.
United we stand here....

He brings much more to the team than JC did. In a 451 set up he is almost the perfect striker.

Unbelievable work rate and fitness. Won so many balls he had no right to.

Him up front with stokes is the perfect partnership. Murray will run all day and Stokes will smash them in. Originally Posted by underscore

Had a lot of doubters but i'm delighted to say that so far he is proving them wrong. Creates a lot more than Cummings IMO, makes runs, creates space and is a constant hassle for defenders, he chased down everything today.
Well done Simon, your fast becoming a favourite of mine

Settled in to his Hibs career perfectly so far and deserved his goal.
Some wrote him off before he even kicked a ball and now some are saying he offers more than JC. Let's just enjoy his performances. Hopefully a sign off things to come. Superb today

People writing him off on goals, but I can see him scoring 20+ this season quite easily. Looks likely to score in every game he plays.

First time I have seen him playing for hibs and he is a player.
Endless energy, causes mistakes in defence, scores goal (8 and it's 5th Aug !). Has strength and pace. Has all the tools but will still be learning the game and important for consistency. Brilliant start though!

Agree he's a totally different type of player but, with 8 goals just 5 days into August, he'll struggle not to score as many as Jason! Originally Posted by lord bunberry

He has a fair bit of technique as well. Could go on to be a very complete player.

Superb today, hopefully he hasn't picked up an injury just before he was subbed, after his trade mark running the defender down. Keep it going SM

Great shift and a far better player than I fought he was. Really brilliant to see him closing down defenders and the keeper

I hope he scores double what Jason scored. He's already my favourite player ever. Originally Posted by WestEndHibee

Huge fan of Simon Murray already.
Fantastic attitude, fast, strong, plays off the shoulder, works himself into good positions and is always wanting the ball. Quite a tidy player as well. He isn't a natural finisher from what I've seen/maybe lacks composure when he is given too long to think about it...but he more than makes up for that elsewhere.
Don't think we should expect too much of him/put pressure on him, but does look like real gem of a signing.
