Would love to know his pass success rate tonight. Less than 30%?

Set pieces awful, horrendous defensively, terrible going forward and making Liam Craig look like Kevin De Bruyne.

How slow is he? He must a stone overweight.

Nowhere near as bad as that.

"Q" the low post counters appearing from nowhere to slag the team.

Better than listening to the pish that comes out of you high posters. Must be good to post a lot. This is a very average Hibs side. Ross has brought in Wright and Magennis and not a ball kicked by either. Time to deliver before we slip back in to mid table. I know my football and have supported Hobbs for 55 years. What’s your credentials.
Criticising my team does not make me a Jambo by the way.
This site is every bit as bad as the Jambo one by the way. Both full of slavers.
As a low poster don’t worry I won’t be back for a while.

Did anyone else fear things a bit when Gogic went off?

Boyle absent again.

That was a strange one - a brave and positive move to get Doidge on and go two up front - but would have made much more sense to take off Mallan who was not having a great game while Gogic going off left our defence more exposed I thought.

Yet we're above all of these teams in the league suggesting we're better than them.

Check back early next year and we shall see.

Saturdays draw was a good result. Tonight's draw was a poor result. Imo.

True - would have been better off points wise losing Saturday and winning tonight if we could choose. Great not to lay down to the OF but these are the games we really need to win

Your saying that as if it's a good result.

The day we are happy with a draw at home to St Johnstone is the day we pack it in

This.

Just shows how far some of our fans standards have dropped.

Wright’s been a big disappointment for me but are you seriously writing Magennis off already? Pretty poor comment imo.

[Baldy Foghorn]

We have a poor record against St Johnstone at home (a team with a fraction of our resources).

Thought we started off well, then fell out of it. Some players are struggling. Wouldn't have taken Gogic off tonight unless injured

[Hunts]

As much as McGregor is one of out heroes how much do we not play out of defence well. We need good cover across the centre of defence. Second St J goal was a joke between the central defence.

I believevSt.J. have an equally poor record against us at home .

Taking Gogic Off got the trouble it was asking for.

Joe Newell can be tremendous but he was so far off that tonight. A frustratingly inconsistent player.

I thought Newell was only a composed finish away from a very good performance. He hardly conceded possession the whole game and put some good challenges in - and if he puts away Mackie's great pass (which he was begging for by the way) then we'd all be drooling.

It's fine margins I suppose - Mallan tried a bit too hard to be creative I thought and ended up being a breaking point rather than a focal point by the end of the game. Murphy had a fine game but even he over pushed things a couple of times and it never quite clicked. Gogic had a typical 6/10 game - breaking up and linking up in equal measure and I think he should have stayed on rather than Mallan.

I think we've got some good footballers in the side and when it works it can be great to watch. There's more to football than just being pretty though of course - it's a matter of getting a balance that wins games. I don't think Jack's far away from that and I feel a lot more patient than some seem to at the moment. I think our first team looks stronger than it did last season and look forward to more of that kind of progress.

[WYHibbees]

I was surprised to see Gogic make more attacking runs than Newell. I get that Newell was maybe in a deep-lying playmaker role, but giving the ball to a streaking Gogic 30-40 yards from goal is hardly going to inspire fear in defenders. I'll always prefer Allan over Mallan in the role of light-tackling attacking mid, particularly with some of our other players on that side of the ball.
Thought Mackie looked good, and Murphy is getting his feet under him. And was that the first brace by a McGinn for Hibs? Saved us on the day.

I don’t think that goal would have come about if Gogic was still on the pitch. Defence was far too exposed.

That would have been my substitution. Gogic was playing well, and despite criticism for his passing recently I thought it was good as anyone today.

Agree with you mate apart from maybe knowing your football. Plenty on hear that think they are Uber fans cause they post a lot on Hibs.net.
Half them have probably never seen Hibs live in there life.
Watch all the games live on the Hibs net match thread and police every thread having a go at anyone who doesn't agree that Hibs were great.
Apparently you can't have a go at Hibs because there is a pandemic , anybody that has an opinion they don't agree with is an instant yam with the Uber back ups jumping in patting each other on the back.
Any points you make don't mean anything , you are not allowed to still be upset about the semi final defeat or question mentality.
God forbid you have a go at the elite players.
I am certainly missing being at the games and in the pub before and after where you can have a good chat / arguement / disagreement about Hibs and everyone's entitled to there opinion wether you agree or not .
Try to have that on here but you get shot down , probably if the Ubers met you in the pub nothing would be said.

Newell I think would be excellent with the right players around him.

Mallan is decent enough when he's given freedom to play - he's very rarely going to be given the freedom he needs and is hopeless when pressed.

Our first choice defence is very good. Anyone drops out, it appears we're in trouble, McGregor didn't have a good night tonight, Gray looked like he struggled a bit on Saturday.

Forwards are good, lack of depth when anyone is missing though.

Decent out wide, Murphy and Boyle good, again we lack depth.

Midfield is still all over the shop for me. We've not fixed that at all. Magennis might be the answer, he hasn't looked it so far.

Ross will be criticised but at least you can make some sort of sense of his changes. He had a go at trying to win the game tonight, gambled that we'd give up chances in a bid to get more chances at the other end and that's the way it worked out. I had an issue with Mallan lasting the game when he was clearly struggling but he has the ability to bang one in from 25 yards and decide a tight game even when playing badly so Ross is forgiven for leaving someone on that might win the game - even if he didn't.

As is often the case i agree with you.

Murphy has been decent but to fit him in we are either having to sacrifice a third central midfielder or play one up top. Neither doidge or nisbet play as well without a partner and i think both should be playing every week.

Boyle hasnt been at his best for a while but he has never been very effective as a forward imo. He is at his best when he starts deep and i think the wingback role suits him.

Ross had us using 352 to good effect at the start of the year and i wish we would go back to it and stick with it. If it means murphy playing centrally or even being left out then so be it.

Hanlon being out would be a major blow, i hope his injury isn't serious.

On the plus side, mackie looks like he is up for grabbing his chance and rocky looks very confident at the moment.

I’m absolutely with you on your first sentence.

I’m still not really sure what style of football JR has us playing. Very turgid stuff.

It’s boring watching us just now

I just don't agree on the whole turgid front. There have been one or two flat performances this season for sure but more often than not we've been good to watch. Tonight was a good game I thought albeit we certainly didn't have it all our own way. St Johnstone brought a lot to the table and exposed some weaknesses which we undoubtably have - but it was far from boring. Sure I'd like to be winning these fixtures but a 2-2 with two equalisers and a few good chances to win the game is far from turgid IMO.

Agreed.
Unfortunately I don't have the answers as to how we do it but we have to find a way to get him more of the ball.
In Boyle and Murphy we have 2 very dangerous wide players but unfortunately don't seem to be getting the dividends from them I feel we should be at the moment.

Better quality midfield players.

how bad was Rocky positioning at the second goal , ball was nearly in the middle of the goal when it hit the net.
