Made a great save from I think Jordan Jones in the 0-0 draw vs Killie and another in the win at Dundee which if it had gone in could have changed the game.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

91 games for Scotland
MBE for services to football
Rocky on a run of 9 good games after a mixed bag of indifferent performances interspersed with some admittedly outstanding saves
Rocky has a long way to go to catch up needs to keep this run going for the next 15 years

In my time supporting Hibs he's top 3 now:
1. Andy Goram
2. Jim Leighton
3. Ofir
He's good but the top 2 were world class at times. The only sad thing is the way in which Goram left the club but doesn't take away from the fact that he was an exceptional goalkeeper, especially when you consider his height.
Never forget him scoring against Morton from a kick out as well, brilliant.
Who knows though, in 2 years Rocky could well move up that list.

Spot on!
I have spoke up on here for Jim Leighton Rocky lately has been magnificent but Andy Goram has to be number one simply unbeatable at times
I also liked Jim Herriot very much underrated and got the blame for the Hadjuk Split debacle

Was too young to remember Goram at Hibs but for me he's up there with Leighton.

Marciano seems to have upped his game. He’s a very, very good keeper at SPL level and the best at Hibs since old bandy legs. Comparisons aren’t easy but Ofir is better with crosses and better with the ball at his feet. Leighton was a great keeper for Hibs, but he had his flaws and was prone to the odd howler too.
An inspired signing by any standard.

But if we are going down that route then the most nuts thing Ive read on this thread is that Marciano has only had a run of 9 good games for us Thats just outright nonsense. A total dearie me statement.
Leighton and Goram were fantastic but they spent the overwhelming majority of their careers in the same league Rocky is in now so to say they had continued success at the highest level is also stretching the truth.
In their time at Hibs they've all been brilliant lets leave it at that.

He seems to have removed a lot of negatives from his game
Goram and Leighton were always on their A game from day one
You are of course entitled to your opinion and I of course repect that
Please check feedback from other posters
Rocky has been a revelation lately and his distribution has improved beyond all recognition his command of the box and his confidence have increased a 1000 fold
It wasn’t that long ago he was kicking the ball out of play or to the opposition much to the frustration of every HIBS supporter
Long may his good run of form continue
Still do not agree he is anywhere near better than Goram or Leighton
Onwards and upwards

Goram wasnt on his A game from the start as
I've already mentioned, and they both made errors in a Hibs shirt thats is defo true!
Lets agree to disagree though

2) Leighton
3) ?
I am sure others will disagree
It is all about opinions
We have Ronnie Simpson a European Cup Winner
Roughie
Andersson
Younger
Harper
Herriot
Budgie
Logan
Thomson Allan
Willie Wilson
Still feel sorry for Bogdan
Rocky is the man in possession of the gloves it is up to him to put himself up there beside the all time greats

Jim Leighton, Darren Jackson, and Kevin Harper. My three heroes when I first started supporting hibs. Loved Jacko and find it hard to dislike him now even though he has more of an affinity with the Jambos.
Anyway, I generally won't hear a bad word said about Leighton. The common thread even right up until he left was how many points he was worth to us a season. Top top keeper. We struggled to find as good for years afterwards (Chris Reid, Ollie Gottskalksson, Bryan Gunn, Zibi, Simon Brown) which is testament to how vital he was.
We have a great keeper now that is for sure. I don't think we need to knock down club greats to appreciate what we have. If we look back on Ofir's hibs time and mention him in the same breath as Leighton and Goram then he'll have had a very successful time here.

Some great goalies quoted but my favourite goalie quote was from Budgie
'Come anywhere near my six yard box, Hately, and I'll break your effing back'
Result : Rangers 0 Hibs 1.

Goram and Leighton played against Larsson Gazza etc the standard was different class to today. Absolutely no comparison to be made.

Goram and Leighton were both at Man U, (albeit short spells) both signed by Fergie, - Realistically, is Rocky anywhere near that level?
Still prefer Bogdan 😜
