\u201cTo be honest, I don\u2019t think I could live in Tassie,\u201d he said on SEN\u2019s Summer Run.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy lifestyle in Melbourne is too elite to go down to Tassie. I just don\u2019t think I would be happy down there, to be honest.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ginnivan cheekily added: \u201cLook, if they offer me $2 million, I probably wouldn\u2019t say no!\u201d<\/p>\n
The 23-year old thinks his friends around the league would feel similar and that Tassie might be a tough sell to players from interstate.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think it will be pretty challenging for Tassie (to attract) young kids from Melbourne,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cObviously, the lifestyle is amazing in Gold Coast and Melbourne. I\u2019ve got a few mates up in \u2018Goldy\u2019 and everyone loves being around a bit of atmosphere. I think it will be a challenge for Tassie to bring in young talent away from these places where you\u2019ve lived for 20 years.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s going to be a tough challenge for them, but if someone can do it, our man Kenny (Hinkley) can, I reckon!\u201d<\/p>\n
The Devils couldn\u2019t help but clap back at Ginnivan with a cheeky social media post.<\/p>\n
Ginnivan is among several key Hawks due to come out of contract next year including Will Day, James Sicily, Karl Amon and Mabior Chol.<\/p>\n
It follows another big trade splash where Hawthorn added Zach Merrett and Ben King during the player movement period to make Sam Mitchell\u2019s side one of the chief flag contenders in 2027.<\/p>\n
While Ginnivan indicated contract talks weren\u2019t pressing, he said he wanted to be a Hawk \u201cfor a long time\u201d ahead of the ex-Magpie\u2019s seventh AFL season \u2014 and fourth in brown and gold.<\/p>\n
\u201cI was talking to mum and dad about it. When you think about it too much, it becomes too much,\u201d Ginnivan added.<\/p>\n
\u201cYou just let these things play out. Hopefully the Hawks still have enough money after the last few years. We\u2019ve got \u2018Daysy\u2019 (Will Day) out of contract as well, so hopefully he doesn\u2019t sign for $1.5 million and have a monster year.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019ve been loving the Hawks and I feel like we\u2019re obviously in a great position with our list. I love the coaches, obviously Sam (Mitchell) and our forward line coach \u2013 who is the best coach I\u2019ve ever had, Adrian Hickmott.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m keen to stay a Hawk for a long time. Hopefully we\u2019ll start the season off well and go from there.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Hawthorn star Jack Ginnivan says it will be a \u201cchallenge\u201d for Tasmania to recruit players from other clubs…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":937453,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[560],"tags":[638,64,63,55,639,85],"class_list":["post-937452","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-afl","tag-afl","tag-au","tag-australia","tag-australian-football-league","tag-australianfootballleague","tag-sports"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/937452","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=937452"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/937452\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/937453"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=937452"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=937452"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=937452"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
