Yeah, hopefully the end of that disaster. He genuinely couldn't even play there in the championship never mind semi finals. I've been slaughted on here before for saying it (with the one example at Tynecastle being mentioned always) but seriously. Its clear as day. He is a dreadful striker. Ross has to see that.
He is a (very) one dimensional right winger. Nothing more.

Boyle as a striker

We question his position every so often. Striker, winger or wing back.
Hes played all of them this season and has been very poor/quiet most games.

We change shape when bringing on Doidge who was very poor and went back to long balls

I think we’d have had a better few weeks if we hadn’t dropped him. We rarely play well with the 1 or the 3 up front.

Boyle being high on the right makes Paul McGinn a much better attacker as he has room to move into. Playing Cadden was a risk tonight and didn't work. We had next to no attacking threat down the right.

His pace was his main assets, he seems to have lost that so is now just a very limited footballer I’m afraid with zero composure in the final 3rd.

i remember saying to a mate at a game a few seasons back exactly that, when he loses his pace well, i'm not sure what else he will bring, i'm sure he will score again though

It's even more worrying to think he now has 2 inferior players in competition for the right midfield slot. Boyle has to play there, even in a 3-5-2. It makes no sense whatsoever.

Boyle sums Hibs up.
Unpredictable, inconsistent, liable to go missing in big games.
Not the kind of player to put a lot of faith in.
He is good sometimes which is the reason why he is at Hibs.

Boyle has been Scottish Championship material most weeks this entire season.
Rarely beats a man, crosses inevitably hit the first man, can barely lift a set-piece a foot off the ground.
Another one who isn't half as good as he thinks he is.

Boyle up front was not the right choice today, imho.
I think it lessened Boyle’s impact and took Nisbet out the game.Follow the Hibs podcast, Longbangers, on Twitter (@longbangers)

He should’ve dropped boyle and had nisbet and doidge up top
Or started boyle at RWB. Didn’t get him starting cadden tonight at all & the boy looked lost
