Dan Gordon, Leith: "I think it was good to win so easily, they had a wee spell when we stopped playing in the second half but most of the game was played in their half and we could have scored a few more. Best for us was Colin Nish f
or the second week running."
Ross Watterson, Wardie: "It was so easy, all the front players scored except our top scorer which was strange. Best player for us was Nish but he should have scored at least a hat-trick."
Ally Sunderland, Granton: "I thought we were really good and scored five goals again – good to be a Hibby just now."
Mark Hamilton, Musselburgh: "Montrose looked like a team that were just making up the numbers – they had nothing to threaten us. Hibs were very organised and strolled through the game."
Mike Brown, Leith: "Five goals and an easy passage through this round – let's hope for a decent home draw on Wednesday."
Paul Brandon, Leith: "As a team, we were brilliant in spells but we didn't need to play anywhere near 100 per cent."
Paul Hughes, Duddingston: "Could have been a lot more if our old keeper wasn't playing, he made about ten great saves. Wotherspoon was my man of the match."
Simon McNeil, Portobello: "This could be our year if we get a decent draw. We were in easy street from the minute Nish started the scoring."
James McNeil, Leith: "Dominated the game and it turned out like a training game. Good day out for the Montrose boys and their fans were noisy but they were really outclassed everywhere."
Ross Cooper, Trinity: "We put on a show. Only five goals, but that was down to Andy McNeil in the Montrose goal who showed his class, the man of the match award goes to him."
Fraser Corrigan, Wardie: "I don't expect us to get another game as easy as this was. Nish scored twice and Riordan scored a cracker. Great to see Benji and new boy Gow getting goals as well."
John Keys, Leith: "I thought we played really well and deserved to win – Miller and McBride were our best players."
Thomas McDougall, Muirhouse: "No sweat, we just bulldozed through them throughout the game."
George Marshall, Piershill: "Easy to see why Yogi wanted Alan Gow – sweet strike for the fifth goal. I'm very excited bout the team we have now, a bit more composure and it would have been a cricket score."
Jackie Muir, Goldenacre: "Great that two of the subs scored but it will be harder on Wednesday against Aberdeen – just hope we play as well."
May Lothian, Leith: "It was good performance to get through the tie. Best for us was Nish and Wotherspoon and Zemmama gave us a lift when he came on."
Craig Lewis, Dunfermline: "Absolutely first-class performance from the Hibees, five good goals and a trademark goal from Deeks. It was a good cup tie and I hope the Montrose fans enjoyed their day out in the Capital."
Robbie McGee, Inverkeithing: "We kept the good run going and with a great performance. Any team that scores five is well worth the entrance money; it was a good day out, I enjoyed it."
