The Hawk replied to the post with a short comment, stating, "see u in 14 days".
It's a nod that Ginnivan believes his side will overcome Port Adelaide in their semi-final clash at Adelaide Oval on Friday night, to reach that elusive preliminary final against Sydney.
It follows Ginnivan's antics on the night before Hawthorn's 37-point win over the Western Bulldogs in their elimination final.
Ginnivan was spotted at Richmond pub, the London Tavern on the Thursday night, before taking to the MCG 24 hours later.

After his night at the pub, Ginnivan then took to his X account to share a picture of his bedside table, with a cup of tea and candle lit.
The next morning, he took to his X account again, to share a tweet, stating, "just gone for a walk", alongside a breaking news image.
Ginnivan went on to collect 15 disposals alongside a goal in the Hawks' win over the Dogs, in which he celebrated accordingly, motioning himself drinking a beer in an ode to his pub night.

"Absolutely (a non-issue). I didn't ask, I probably should have. I wonder how many players went out for dinner to a public place last night? I would guess maybe half," Mitchell said post match.
"I think most of us have watched Friday night footy or watched Thursday night footy at a public venue for the majority of the year.
"(Ginnivan) played well, he lives how he lives, and I knew about it," he said.
The Hawks head to Adelaide Oval on Friday night to play Port Adelaide, with the winner advancing to a preliminary final clash at the SCG against Sydney.
