Brisbane has just announced it's 2015 indigenous jumper (nice and early) and is already available to order on the Lions Shop website.
Anything with the traditional Lion on it is an improvement. Relatively speaking, it will probably go down as one of the better indigenous strips - it's a bit hard to get something that appeals to our expectations due to the "messy" nature of indigenous artwork as opposed to western styles.

This limited edition guernsey was designed by local Brisbane artist Stephen Hogarth and will be worn against St Kilda at the Gabba in Round 9 on Sunday 31 May. The design shows that there are no boundaries within sport and we can work as a team to achieve common goals.
Guernsey Design: Corella - The Story
Woolloongabba was a meeting place where hundreds of indigenous people gathered for seasonal celebrations.
The guernsey design depicts Woolloongabba as a major meeting place for the area, with the Brisbane River and surrounding waterholes a great hunting ground for local indigenous people.
Corella was the name of the waterhole where the Gabba now stands – a gathering point where pathways meet, and stories and knowledge were shared. Today, people still gather to celebrate sport on these ancient grounds.
