Ginni-watch thread

[What'sinaname]

Whinge all you want about a thread about Ginni. If you don't like it, piss off outta here.

Otherwise, let's hear ya!

Looks good so far.

Kicked his first goal for the Hawks.

Ginni has matched Schultz's 2 game output in less than a half of footy.

Some of us said this at the time 😔 Sad but it’s useless crying over spilt milk.

Listening to the game on MMM while doing some yard work. Sounds like Ginni is playing a good game. Not just kicking goals but getting up and down the ground and feeding out to teammates. Good on him.

I hope IQ sodomises him sans lube when we play them, but otherwise, best of luck to him.

Felt weird watching him at another club.

I mean, I hate the dons, so I was going for the Hawks (and for Ginni) on the day. But sheesh. We supported him, stood by him, defended him, and we really put up with a lot of unwarranted media attention and negative umpiring when it came to Ginni.

It just sucks how we were defending he and the club and then he was allowed to walk out. It felt good to see him get his flag. But, I dunno, I just felt odd watching him play at another club.

I didnt feel this way with Stepho, or Treloar, or Grundy....

^ Collingwood did the Schultz deal and Wright basically informed Ginni's manager he wasn't part of our plans going forward. They didn't "allow him to walk" - puttng it figuratively, it was more like they pushed him out of a moving car in Glenferrie Road.

[What'sinaname]

^ it was Wellington Road, not Glenferrie Road.

What a joke the AFL and Umpires are crucifying Ginni today. He shoud've had atleast 4 free kicks and all ignored, shocking really, if not pathetic.

Sounds like it will be raised next few days and the arrogance of the AFL will dismiss it.

I bet it will all change next week.

^ The treatment of the small forwards at the other end was quite shocking by comparison. The sad thing is that if he was a complete thug rather than a clever ball-player the AFL would take fewer steps to thwart his career.

Jack wasn’t entirely honest to The Age about what was said to him in his exit interview before the super fast Hawks trade, there’s a little bit more to the story. The club didn’t mince words, I’ll put it that way.

Was he one to miss a game by being on the nose beers and testing positive during the week?
