Hawthorn young gun Jack Ginnivan is the latest AFL player set to be sanctioned for giving the bird to Adelaide supporters.
Ginnivan was caught on camera pulling his finger to Crows fans while walking off Adelaide Oval after the Hawks’ 14-point loss on Friday night.
The 22-year old, who’s set to cop a $1000 fine for the incident, took to Instagram to respond to a video of the act with the comment: “Best coin spent.”

Ginnivan would join the likes of Geelong’s Bailey Smith and West Coast’s Harley Reid in getting fined for the middle-finger salute in 2025.
“There was definitely a one-fingered salute from Jack Ginnivan,” Herald Sun reporter Jon Ralph said on Fox Footy.
“I think we call that the Bailey Smith … the going rate is $1000, we saw Bailey Smith double-finger salute and also Harley Reid earlier in the year.
“That’s what (Ginnivan) does, that’s Hok-ball for you.”
Ginnivan was among Hawthorn’s best players on Friday night, finishing with 20 disposals and two goals.
The youngster’s post-game bird weren’t his only cheeky antics on the night, with Ginnivan turning to the crowd after kicking an epic goal on his left foot late in the third quarter and pointing to his ear.
