Hawks ‘cruisy’ with Ginnivan’s pre-game pub outing

Hawthorn dynamo Jack Ginnivan has shrugged off criticism in typical fashion after he was spotted at busy pub 24 hours before the Hawks’ elimination final.

Ginnivan ventured to the London Tavern in Richmond on Thursday night to watch the qualifying final between Port Adelaide and Geelong.

His appearance raised some eyebrows, especially after energetic forward came under ***** for going to the races at Moonee Valley the night before Collingwood’s grand final.

Magpies coach Craig McRae gave Ginnivan a public dressing down in his victorious press conference, and he was traded to the Hawks only weeks later.

The 21-year-old has played up to social media storm ahead of the Hawks’ sudden-****** clash with the Western Bulldogs, responding to a post on X with a photo of a cup of tea and a candle on Thursday night.

“Sam (Hawtorn coach Sam Mitchell) has utter trust in me and I texted him before I went to the pub … I just had a few waters with my mates and I was home by halftime,” he told the Seven Network on Friday night when arriving at the MCG.

“Pretty cruisy from Sam’s end and everyone’s end.”

Mitchell has been praised for allowing his young Hawks to show personality on flair through on-field celebrations, and on social media.

“I didn’t (go out for dinner the night before games) but it’s not unusual for him or many others,” Mitchell told Fox Footy.

“Half the team probably went out for dinner last night.

“He’s obviously very recognisable.

“There’s a lot of media and only half the teams, or less than that, that are being followed now.

“Obviously it becomes a story and the boys had a bit of a laugh about it before, so it’s not something that’s too big in our minds.”
