    We've scored at least 2 goals from throws since Hecky came in. Total myth we're bad from throws.

    Considering how pathetic our throw ins are and have been for many years, this is a wee breath of fresh air.

    Agreed.

    You’re at it if you think it’s a myth. Just because we have scored a couple of goals from quick throws doesn’t change that

    Yeah, I don't agree with a blanket statement not backed up with any facts so I'm at it.

    What ‘facts’ do you need? Open your eyes and you will see it for yourself. How long do we take at throw ins? Lack of movement and lack of urgency from the thrower causes us issues at nearly every throw in. Taking 2 quick ones all season doesn’t alter that

    To be fair I think nearly every teams fans say the same thing. I certainly never see a team that I think are good at throw ins.

    When Hecky first arrived a feature of his new found input was the quick throw in worked a treat up in Dundee since then nothing

    Makes me think it was just a fluke

    Scored against livi from a throw in. Wasn't a quick one either.

    He took most of the throws for Australia in the Asian Cup and most were long.

    Yes we have.
    Yeah, we've been behind. But we've hardly put anyone under serious attacking pressure in those instances..

    But are we so much worse than anyone else? Never came away from a game thinking the other team were just exceptional at throw-ins.

    Tbf I’m no that fussed about other teams but over the last wee while I’ve thought on a number of occasions that the ref is going to give the other team the throw in due to how long we are taking. I can’t remember thinking that about any team we have been playing

    Not a clue about other teams, I just know by watching us for the past few seasons that we've been rubbish at throw ins.

    The noticeable thing when Hibs have a throw in, is the lack of movement to give the thrower an option. It been so bad in recent games I've wondered if this was a tactic by Hibs to slow the game down. Generally opposition teams show much more movement at throw ins and use them to their advantage whether to advance play up the pitch or to get the ball into the opponents box. As has been pointed out, it's a massive part of Hearts' game plan; it may not be pretty to watch but it certainly puts them on the front foot.

    Darren Jackson was excellent at taking a quick throw in. He was absolute quality at receiving them too. The difficulty came in doing both at the same time.
    We have been pretty rubbish with throw ins since them heady days.

    Is it any surprise we haven't been using the long throw in, when we lose the ball from short corners half of the time?!

    "Getting the ball in the box" seems to be lost on us more than other clubs.

    It was about a month ago, under Hecky, when we won 2-1. Mallan goal came from a throw didn't it? So was McNulty at Dundee.

    Yup. But it doesn't count for some reason.

    It's a giant myth that we've been crap at throw ins. Particularly in recent times where we've had John McGinn and his giant arse.

    Malians goal versus Livi came as a result of a ball played through from the left back position after some midfield play not a throw in
    McNulty’s goal was the goal that came as a result of the quick throw I was talking about in my OP up at Dundee taken quickly by Flo to Horgan who squared the ball to McNulty

    Yup, and the ball got to the left back position, via the midfield from the throw in.

    Eventually

    No throw in in goal highlights so one has to presume that passage of play has passed

    Its called a line out when Hearts use it.
    I have no doubt when watching hertz that they actually kick it up the park for fueld position
    similar to rugby.

    We are terrible at throw ins and have been for years.

    I can’t believe he only decided to use this in the second last game of the season.

    I don’t think we should just resort to throwing the ball in to the box at every opportunity, but there must have been plenty times when we’ve been chasing games and it would have been handy to do so.

    Yes, Ambrose was doing it. Also came to nothing then as well.

    Milligan's on Saturday was much better than Ambrose could manage. It dropped around the six yard box at the far end, just needed someone to attack it

    So just the four months since he left that we’ve chosen not to use it.

    Ambrose looped it in away up in the air. Milligan threw it in with a lot more pace, more of a chance that something might come of it if used consistently.
