Welcome Welcome to Hawthorn : Jack Ginnivan!

[The Seaword]

It was a bit cringe when Mitch Clearly asked Ed Richard’s about it in the dressing rooms post match. The media love making a big deal about this as if it’s the biggest issue in footy.

I don’t mind Jack doing this, it’s his nature. But the only thing I’d warn him about is make sure he kicks the ball dead straight next time, it was nearly they biggest fail of all time.

Happy with this. Happy they DID this, highlighting his sheer hard work and footy smarts, rather than simply providing internet idiots with yet another platform to mindlessly howl 'giNniVaN's a fLoG!"

Of course, they used 'that' shot as a thumbnail to attract the clicks, but we'll excuse that since the content is meaningful and not sensationalist engagement farming.....

When Leigh Mathews goes out of his way to make an example of you on national television it might be time to pull up.

Huh

Why? Our game will never grow outside if we just keep up with the same dour look.

Leigh is a legend

Not the standard for onfield behaviour

When any media pundit bangs on about anything like this, you know they're just fishing for clicks....

Lethal played with Dermie

I loved his on-field behavior, esp against the handbags.

I loved Don Scots description of the handbags at the tribunal as well.

In a nutshell I totally disagree that these players were not the standard for on-field behavior, in their day.

Indeed, if we had players like this in todays game, players like duckwood would have been taken out of the game, for good.

 

[Hodgey 15]

Cheeky bugger lol.

 

[libbylou]

It is a Tik Tok thing all the young players are doing it.

Cheeky bugger lol.

“Glad you called, Jack. Just wanted to let you know you’re the sub Friday…
Goodnight!”

It’s just another form of banter. Move on. Game is better for it, fire up.

It's pretty tame stuff really compared to some of the show boating that goes on in the NBA / NFL. Shows how sterile our game has become really that such a minor action ike that would gain so much press.

I don't mind it, every club needs a s..t stirrer to fire up the players and Ginni is backing it up with some seriously good on field form.

Geezis imagine all the toffs that are getting in a knot over it watching whaco jacko play today.

What would these knobs talk about for the whole week if Jack didn't do it ?

 

[Judd2Sewell]

Was there any outrage when Bolton did the same thing years ago?

 

[Hawks_Footy]

Big game player.. Loves the moment and our boys feed off him, can't wait to see what he's got for us against his old side

 

[The Spirit of Cricket]

Has been phenomenal since being dropped. What a pick up

 

[SSSSSS]

Probably been our best player since he came back in after a VFL stint.

 

[TylerDurden]

Been awesome.

 

[rei154]

Love Jack.
Love the ball in his hand just about anywhere on the ground and I love that he makes our boys more cheeky.
Big things from him this Thursday, I reckon!

 

[VandoHawk]

Ginnivan has been great playing higher up this year. His football IQ and skills allow him to be impactful in transition. He's hitting the scoreboard and is almost too selfish with his approach.

I just wish we had a Puopolo type to complement his strengths.

 

[Paul Kersey]

Like to see him be a tad more selfish around goal tbh.

 

[MC_9]

He will be top 5 possibly 3 in our B&F. Has been huge since coming back from BH.

 

[kanga kanga kanga]

felt quite bad for him after what that idiotic reporter did

should be fired

 

[MasterSamurai]

AA level but off course the selectors will fit Corey Enright in there somewhere.
