Joe Newell isn't pinning blame on Kyle Magennis for how Hibs lost to St Johnstone on Friday night.
The midfielder was making his first Premiership start since last year in front of a packed Easter Road but was sent off for two bookings. Lee Johnson's men were in control of the match up to that point but his dismissal on the hour-mark changed the game, and Nicky Clark plus Stevie May goals sealed a 2-1 victory for Callum Davidson's visitors.
It was a sore moment for Magennis but midfield teammate Newell was impressed with his performance up until that point, and expects him to come again for Hibs.
