Jack Ginnivan - Redemption arc

[jannissary]

JACK GINNIVAN, YOU WERE WRONG!

as funny as it would be, he'd probably talk about the dogracing

 

[hawkman]

Does anyone kind of hope Ginnivan is there tomorrow night? Then bobs up in the Sydney rooms for Roaming Brian

 

[LuvtheKangas]

He told Ken to "**** off" when Kenny was yapping



Can you show me another instance of an AFL coach taunting opposition players or coach on the ground after a game?

Clarkson to Lloyd.

'You better not f*ing retire you weak c*nt'

After the siren too.

But , but, something happened to justify it

It was false equivalence though

Pretty much sums up the blinkered disingenuousness of some Hawks supporters in this thread.

I would love that.

Yes. Big time. Starting this afternoon with an instagram post of his boarding pass and "I'm flying Kenny"

Sitting next to Ken would have been the ultimate troll.

Ken should shout him tickets. Be a nice apology and Ginni could hold up a sign or as suggested do the Di Caprio meme.

Photo with a cheezy smile holding up a game day ticket with the price circled. "Didn't cost me 20k."

 

[Cyclops]

Now I want him to show up with the beard so he can act out the whole Di Caprio suite.

hard hitting interview on channel 7

I can dig this. Not because I like Ginni and not because I like roving Brian, but because this implies swans win.

Would absolutely love it, as long as Sissyly doesn't throw another pathetic tanty.

 

[peetoo]

Ginni doesnt post what he did , none of this happens. Lets be a bit more 1990 instead of 2024 and finger point everyone else after the initial instigation.

He knew what he was doing. Same reason he knew what he was doing when he cracked a can cele after going to the pub, he seeks the attention and welcomes it.

It’s not bruests 300th, it doesn’t happen either.

Give it a rest son. Sicily is a sook, the others are just dumb.

Thanks dad. Ken was the dick everyone realises that

So as you get older, you come to sympathise with people from different backgrounds. You'll see that someone making an uncomfortable comment about you or yours is actually doing you a favour. We can admire blind loyalty, but we do so because Sicily chose loyalty, not because he chose blindness.

Best thing Sicily can do here is apologise to Ken. To Jack. To Breust.

And most of all to himself.

The commenting on player behaviours and acting holier than thou whilst supporting a club harboring Maynard is hilarious

Hilarious

Don't worry about replying, I don't care

Whole thing is weird.

Bloke who has an immature reaction gets wheeled out to say how proud he is for protecting someone who didn't need protecting.

The whole thing increases the pressure on the bloke he was supposedly protecting.

Resulting in the bloke he was supposecly protecting getting wheeled out to apologetically say how immature he is for posting the kind of inoffensive one liner that the whole football world of all ages says all the time - from supporters all the way up through the industry

 

[SSSSSS]

Kinda amazing how Jack comes out of this whole shitstorm the best.

"Upon reflection, it probably wasn’t the smartest idea, but the leaders and coaches had my full support and they backed me in".

Why would he give the coaches support?

He just misworded it - I assume.

I care, and I'm sad you're upset. Sicily is too. Perhaps he could speak to Maynard about self control, and conducting oneself like a man?

Kinda amazing how Jack comes out of this whole shitstorm the best.

Yeah spot on. He's a fine kid, and keeps smiling. Can do the odd dumb thing (and don't we all) but I've never seen him do a mean one. There's no redemption arc because he hasn't done anything wrong.

 

[BIGHAWK23]

Did somebody say something?

Jack should hopefully learn from this incident and has great mentors around him for this

 

[peetoo]

Everyone (except Hawks) sees that it was a dick measuring contest, which requires more than one dick.

Hawks didn’t get a ‘please explain’ from AFL. So you need to load a few more groups in your (except)

It’s said AFL partly imposed the fine because the port heirarchy wasn’t convincingly apologetic

AFL are a strange institution. Next time someone goes up to the MRO for retaliating, I wonder if they'll follow this example and apply the "He started it" principal when issuing their consequence.

But the reality is fines aren't for what you do - they're for it becoming a media story. Eg. You don't get fined if you get caught doing drugs they've got a non-fine protocl around that - but you do get fined if there's a negative media story or photo of you doing drugs. And the media making this a negative story were Hawks making it a negative story about Kenny - not Sicily. They ignored the over the top retaliation.
