Collingwood premiership forward Jack Ginnivan has requested a trade.

The 20-year-old’s manager has reportedly contacted the Pies and is keen to explore his trade options, according to 7News’ Mitch Cleary.

Hawthorn are at the top of the list.

After a turbulent 12 months for Ginnivan, it emerged on Tuesday the Magpies were open to moving on the small forward with a year to run on his contract.

That followed the signing of Lachie Schultz, who was traded in from Fremantle less than 24 hours prior, meaning Ginnivan could again struggle to find a place in the Magpies’ best 22.

Rebuilding Hawthorn, who finished 16th this year, have lost young forward Tyler Brockman to West Coast and will be without veteran goalsneak Chad Wingard for most of 2024.

After kicking 40 goals during a breakout 2022 campaign, the 20-year-old struggled to regain those heights following a controversy-affected start to the new campaign.

Ginnivan was banned for the first two rounds of the 2023 season after admitting to illicit drug use in January.

He kicked 12 goals in 14 games this year, spending periods in the VFL, and failed to have an impact during Collingwood’s three finals wins.

Ginnivan, who grew up supporting Hawthorn, also landed himself in trouble for attending a horse racing event on grand final eve.

“Read the room, Jack,” Collingwood coach Craig McRae said in his post-grand final press conference when asked about Ginnivan’s night at the races.

“You’ve got to grow up, but you’ve got to make mistakes to learn from them.”
