Gorgiewave Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Put your reasonable players here. Not the greats, not the munters, just the right-down-the-middle OK players. Neilson, Andy Kirk etc. Who is the exactly average Hearts player? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robbo27_22 Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Christ, this could be a record breaker!! Unfortunately, we have so many that fit into this bracket - that is why we've been relatively unsuccessful over the years. Most of the guys from Levein's era were middle of the road.

TheBigO Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 I always thought George Wright was a sensationally reasonably gifted, half decent player. Never forget him turning in week after week of performances, that while not great, were, well, no bad. The memories. AND he pig-sticked Jo Guest. He must be up there with the all-time most sort of OK players we've had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scott_jambo Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 My choices would be Maybury and Mckenna. (The latter has probably been name checked more on JKB the last couple of days than when he had a career here!) Chuck in Balogh, Mcdonald, Kello, Moilanen and Mckenzie. We have never really had a zibby since Craig Nelson. While Hibs have had a few makalamitys in goal in recent years. Oh and Robbo too. He was decent.

Good call for John Millar add in Tommi Grundland and they get my vote for "nothing fancy just hard graft". John Millar could score a few as well if I recall.

N User Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 I wouldn't put Gary Wales in the list. Before his injury he was a cracking player. I though Tomascheck was a good player.

Debut 4 Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 Wales is a ******. John Millar without a doubt. Millar was a funny one. He seemed to be average at times but he was one of those players who had a knack for a particular thing and that was being able to finish when given the chance and making decent runs into the box.

Jammy T Posted September 21, 2009 Share Posted September 21, 2009 John Millar was the one that came to mind Boyack also had 3/4s of a season of alrightness....

Kalamazoo Jambo Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Millar was a funny one. He seemed to be average at times but he was one of those players who had a knack for a particular thing and that was being able to finish when given the chance and making decent runs into the box. I remember seeing him play left back a couple of times and he looked poor. But when we put him in midfield he was great at making those runs into the box, even if the rest of his game was average. I remember being disappointed at losing his goal-scoring skills when he signed for Raith Rovers, but luckily the player we got in return (OK, a bit of money exchanged hands too) wasn't too shabby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, I'm surprised about John Millar being on the list, I would have thought he would have been higher. Two goals against dundee United in the cup was a good thing. He was not booed when sent off for Raith Rovers against us, a sign of popularity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
