August Landmesser Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 A right-sided version of Alex Cochrane, maybe slightly more attack-minded. Sounds just the ticket! Smith gradually dropping into a squad-player role I guess. Decent option to have off the bench Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambo92 Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Plenty positive noise about this guy. Vaguely remember Mark Donaldson telling Cammy to go and sign him too? To temper expectations though looks like he has played mostly from the bench in their short season so far and seemed to have a few hamstring issues last season.

Gmcjambo Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Looks promising and in an area we had to strengthen. Hopefully brings good pace, attacking intent and good deliveries from out wide. Good age too. Great to see an early signing and hopefully we will see at least one striker join us, hopefully two as big Gnando seems certain to be moving on, which is no bad thing.

Homme Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Never heard of him but encouraging comments across the board from those that have it seems. If he plays half as good and takes to the club as well as Cammy does then we are onto a winner. Will also be a positive thing for Devlin having someone he knows well come over.

indianajones Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Reminded me of Ben Garuccio. Quite liked Ben. Seems to only have played a handful of games since leaving us.

That-Day-In-May Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 This looks to be some signing. 22 year old, energetic wing back.

bobskeldon Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I mentioned him to my Australian fitba contact a couple of months ago and his response at the time was that NA was heading for bigger things than the SPFL.

Equally, as he says, they’ve had him on a couple of times and he has done it as a favour so they can’t go around shooting his face off if they want to maintain decent relations with the club. So a decent balance. IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Hardy’s Dug Posted December 21, 2021 Author Share Posted December 21, 2021 (edited) Hopefully a 3.5 deal not a 2.5 deal. Might take half a season to properly bed in and get up to speed.

All roads lead to Gorgie Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 I just feel if we get the quality right and this signing sounds good, then we can turn a good season into a great season with a goalscorer a further priority.

Cruyff Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 It seems it was him or the Canadian/French lad. I don't know a lot about him but I know he's highly rated. I'd he has the same attitude as Cammy, he will do well here. Also good for Cammy to have a familiar face. We've desperately needed a RWB. Smith is still an important player to have as he can teach the boy the ropes. A bit like when we had Neil Pointon and Gary Naysmith. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 ****ing love the Aussie market. All great athletes with first class attitudes. Krisnorbo, Gowser, Dylan McGowan, Bozanic, even Garuccio. All extremely hard working players that hate the hibs. Excited about this one. Hopefully is every bit the wind up merchant Devlin is!

Deodato Posted December 21, 2021 Share Posted December 21, 2021 Take stock as we close out 2021. How long has it been since we had a transfer market strategy that was aligned with the clubs budget constraint and performance needs, and clearly moves the first team forward. Craig Levein made an arse of it. As did many others. Now, the tanker has turned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
