Think they had the scans today Billy and just waiting on the results.

Fingers crossed for both of them

Hope so. Even short term would be fine as thought Jason's one looked potentially very nasty.

I was surprised to see him stay on until halftime albeit a couple of minutes

Naismith is out for the season according to this journo based down south.

Part of the reason we conceded the first. Far from mobile.

Naismith is a massive blow. Very decent player for this level imo.

Good going forward, solid defensively, good in the air and understood the club.

With Gray, James and potentially Block filling in we should be ok there. If we were looking for a new right back the Livingston right back Steve Lawson tore us a new one a couple of weeks back.

Granted it’s the first time iv seen him play there buts he’s rapid, had good delivery and got up and down the pitch easily. Out of contract this summer too.

[J-C]

Shame but he was only an average player with a few faults, we need better if we want to improve, nice lad though and got Hibs but still would've been handy till the end if the season.

I disagree, we already look weak at the back and this further complicates things. A consistent fit Gray is more than adequate but James at right back over a period of time isn’t good enough. I know a defender who can play centre half and right back though....

Naismith is a blow. I hope it’s not the last we see of him.

[MWHIBBIES]

****ing bizarre he played on. Can only have made it worse

Lessons shouldve been learned after porteous was left on the park last season when his knee was clearly away. Only makes it worse long term and could lead to players careers being hindered in the future.

This was completely different. If Naismith was 100% certain he couldn't continue he would have said. As it was he didn't seem to be in too much pain once he got up and gave himself 5 minutes to try to run it off. Any player will do the same.

Absolutley, the staff can only go on how the player himself is feeling (within reason obviously). If it’s been a bad twist Naismith might have thought it would ease off.

Any long term injury would have been done with the twist itself though, the couple of minutes after wouldn’t have made it much term.

He must have thought he was ok

[Robbo6-2]

We have had absolutely no luck with injuries this season.

Feel for Naismith as he has played well for us.

Really hope Porto is ok and it was only precautionary

[GreenCastle]

Like concussions the physios should do a simple running test (forwards / back wards / angled running). If the player can’t do these they should be subbed.

Said it earlier in thread - it was obvious both injuries were bad and players should have both been off straight away.

Even downsouth Rashford played with stress fracture which will have long term effects for his career.

I agree that defence hasn’t looked great this season but imo it’s been more centrally or down Stevenson’s side we’ve looked poor.

Portoeus, for Having a lot of potential has been poor and at times a liability this season. He has some brilliant performances or moments dint get me wrong, but he still has a hell of a lot to learn and really has to start learning from his mistakes.

Shame for Jason, was loving it at Hibs, and gave us a good shift

Yet another long term injury in the squad, to add to Gray, Boyle, McGregor, and all out of the back 4
Plus the recent one with Mallon
Just have to hope Ryan’s is not too serious

[BILLYHIBS]

Shame for Naismith

Started off ring rusty but unlike Heckys other signings improved the more he played a decent attacking threat plenty of energy and decent in the air

My abiding memory is one poster saying on one of Jonnyboys This is how it feels threads: “ Naismith runs like the Mummy and tackles like the Mummy”

Haste ye back!

I totally agree with what you say, that’s why I wouldn’t want our strongest area Of defence be covered by the likes of James if Gray isn’t fit enough.

Agree shame for Jason think he has done good, cracking goal against Killie also. Probably unlikely to see him back if he is out for a long period of time.

FFS, players shouldn't be forced to do running tests if they might have concussion!

Hibs physios must be sheite.

[HibeeSS0762]

Has anyone heard any news on Porto’s injury? Sorry if Iv missed something.

[TimeForHeroes16]

Unfortunate about Naismith never really took to him thought he was bang average constantly backing off players letting them in our box. A shame for the boy but won’t be missed

[Diclonius]

Real shame for Naismith, hope his career can kick on at the same level after the injury.

Fortunately for us we have four more right backs, though three are injury prone themselves and one is a youth player.

[Borderhibbie76]

Gutted for Naismith though I'm not so sure he was as good defensively as some are making out on here. He was deffo good at bombing forward but not so great at defending. A fit and firing SDG (fingers crossed) is still an upgrade in that position imho

[EAZY-ME]

Gutted for him...good player who loved being a hibby

[Broken Gnome]

And that's Porteous until at least May as well.

[hibbysam]

Porteous out for the foreseeable, while signing a deal until 2023.
