A much-changed St Johnstone team ended their league campaign with defeat against Hibernian.Perth boss Callum Davidson clearly had one eye on Friday night’s Premiership play-off opener up in Inverness.But he would still be disappointed to watch his side concede four, without response, at Easter Road on Sunday.Paul McGinn opened the scoring towards the end of the first half before James Scott netted a hat-trick after the break.For Saints, they started relatively well and popped the ball around nicely but drifted away as the game progressed.Elliott Parish started between the posts - Zander Clark was rested - while big Irish centre-half John Mahon was handed a first start for the club.He was tasked with patrolling the backline alongside Dan Cleary and Jamie McCart, the latter captaining the side.

In the wing-back roles were Shaun Rooney (right) and Tom Sang (left).There was a rare go from the first whistle for Charlie Gilmour in the middle of the park, teaming-up with Jacob Butterfield and Cammy MacPherson.And in the forward department, Nadir Ciftci and Glenn Middleton were given the nod.

Unfortunately, Canadian striker Theo Bair missed out with injury.Middleton had the best chance of the early stages when, on 16 minutes, Ciftci slipped the ball into his path towards the edge of the box.

A quick touch and powerful hit followed, but goalkeeper Matt Macey palmed away.Soon a quick corner routine presented MacPherson with a sight of goal from a promising position.
