Maybe its lemon lime and bitters. Doesn't look like beer. I very doubt he would be drinking.
He was also home by 9pm.
No harm done.

eta:
Soft drink as per HS

It's beer. He'd want to play well this time.

 

[Fat Jesus]

IMO the problem here is that somebody was taking a pic of a player out and about, and posting on social media with the intent of embarrassing them. Not cool IMO.

It's cool if photo is taken the day before a final.

 

[barrackers]

Having dinner isn't a crime.
its a whole 24hrs before the game. While it may be different, but whatever is comfortable for the players.

I had no problem with Ginnivan going to see a mates horse run either. What it shows though is he hasn’t changed his pregame and therefore wouldn’t fit with McRae’s values.

Mitchell was supposedly OK with it, but if Ginnivan turns in a stinker tonight, Mitchell might change his tune.

This stuff with Ginni - you can excuse it or gloss over it, but it’s a distraction before an important game (again) which his team doesn’t need. He’s a high profile player, and he can’t control what other idiots might do to - or around - him when at these venues. He attracts attention and it’s not needed on the eve of important games.

It’s just dumb.

 

[Big Bryza]

Ginivan at it again.
Out at the London Tavern the night before his final.

He's just an attention seeking little campaigner that will go missing tonight. Nothing surer.

Read the room, Jack.

If that’s water I bet he will be sick at home not playing due to drink crap water

I know some on here still love him, but that wasn't water in his cup.

Not sure he could have expected to cause a kerfuffle by going to (presumably) his local for a few softies and maybe a counter meal?

I can only take this as Pub Patron Vilification. If one of us is smeared, it hurts us all. Feeling quite diminished.

I think that main point is whether he can back up his actions. He was awful in the GF, so the pressure is well and truly on him now to play well tonight.

Surely he's not out pub drinking before a game? Maybe...
he is a bit thick
it's ginger beer
Sam Mitchell owns that pub
It's just a ploy to tease us finals deprived Pies fans
We shouldn't care



If they do win, the massive gloats around the Glenferrie/Burwood Rd pubs and wine bars will be beyond unbearable



If Ginni kicks multiple goals will some posts be deleted?


Go Dogs anyway

Easy to get there when you play and train in your own backyard

Worst is some pie fans still sucking up to him on socials today after the way he has treated us this year.

Didn't help Port last night

Essendon players’ rare finals act after 20-year drought anniversary

The Bombers aren’t jetting off on holidays just yet, agreeing to subject themselves to a torturous ‘learning experience’.

No, but port dont train on AO and they share it with crows
Geelong train at GMHBA and play there. Nobody else has that ability.

It's a storm in a teacup - or perhaps in a pint. Hawks other players or coaches won't be distracted. Will Ginni? Seems to thrive on attention. Might give him that little extra motivation.

Cats don't play their finals at GMHBA though..

IIRC they played one there against Freo a while back.

Yes. One. And they lost. So it's hardly an advantage, which was my point

It is if you order pizza with pineapple

This is true …

• Pizza
• Beer

Both are forms of carb loading.

Kinda amusing how people still stick up for Ginnivan after all the shit he has flung at us this year and there’s no way that’s water or soft drink. Just shows the narrative changes when you aren’t a Pies player anymore because he wouldn’t be getting the “soft drink” excuse if he was still with us.
