The latest negative news reveals Hibs down on 10 players - five injured plus five COVID affected. I think our hopes of attaining a positive result are remote. Therefore I'd expect JR to at least attempt to organise a decent "spine" of a scratch side - goalie, CB and CF with some form of experience and accountability. Build a reasonable team around that foundation and stick to a game plan that is simple for all the players to understand and deploy, bearing in mind this looks like it's gonna be a scratch side comprising players unfamiliar with playing together at this level of footie. Boyyy, Hibs have a "drawn a short draw" in a match where grabbing the 3 pts would be invaluable in gaining an upward position near the top of the Scot Prem.
