Indigenous Jumper 2016

[Hollow Sorrow]

Each circle represent one of our indigenous players, shoulder Cyril, Above the Tasmania logo Hill, under the AFL logo Burgoyne and the other Jermaine. Each of them have a description of the meaning on the insider of the collar

 

[Grumblez]

Is it just me or does it look like a pepperoni pizza in the middle?

 

[StillAtLarge]

The afl and (particularly) the tasmania logo really don't suit this guernsey but aside from that I quite like it. Definitely should be used by the club as our clash strip post the indigenous round.

Yeah, shouldn't have the white boxes around the logos.

I like that it actually means something to all our aboriginal players note just a play on vertical stripes / something not related to the people in our game. Have definitely liked the last few aboriginal guernseys better than ALL of our clash strips (bar the heritage and majority brown with gold stripes)

I thought the previous Indigenous jumper was a ripper, so I had to have one.

This one's probably even more personal for the players, and I don't mind that.

Looks okay but hate it having to be white. Why couldn't we have gone with a predominantly gold guernsey against the Lions

 

[walhawk]

Horrible.
We have not played in Brisbane for a decade and they club dishes up a white jumper with more red than gold.
Looks nothing like Hawthorn.

That's the point.

I wonder if Hyphen had any part in the artwork on the jumper? If I remember correctly, he's quite the Aboriginal artist. I like it.

 

[Guerrahappyteam]

Hmm. Our most recent debutant is listed as an indigenous player here: http://www.aflcommunityclub.com.au/index.php?id=790

yet is not represented on the guernsey.

I feel your pain, I'm flying up to watch the game. How are my kids gonna recognize our club when I take photos and show them when I get back.

I like it too.
The problem with anything new is that there will always be someone who won't: isn't the statistic something like "15% of any group will not like any change, even it's for the better".

I'm going to the game and looking forward to seeing this in action.

 

[ahhhhhh]

I'm sure your kids will manage

 

[Grumblez]

I'm sure your kids will manage

How would you know? They know hawthorn and love hawthorn and know our colours are brown and gold, I wear our old white clash guernsey and my youngest as no clue I'm going to the footy and when I try explain he thinks I'm joking.
I'm guessing u don't have kids, or don't spend enough time with them when real young to understand.

 

[Adelaide Hawk]

To be honest, I'm not keen on it.

 

[flinchfree]

Very busy, not in a good way.
Really loved the previous indigenous jumper.

 

[MadDawg]

I like the idea of the circles, its the white which is a bit ugly.

Its essentially and indigenous clash jumper.

I thought the idea was to blend the traditional jumpers with indigenous artwork.

 

[LuckyHawk]

To be honest, I'm not keen on it.

Same here, brown and gold stripes are Hawthorn, nothing else.

I don't mind an alternate strip for genuine jumper clashes, but how many different jumpers do we need to wear?

These days its a relief when the brown and gold stripes run out.
I want a European round where on the guernsey front we have the acropolis doused in spaghetti
with a crown sitting on top - all in brown and gold of course.

 

[Collins-Langford-Ayres]

Really like it

 

[Gralin]

Reckon the boys will wear it with pride unlike the Power Rangers top as it actually means something to them

 

[Suntory Boss Coffee]

Oh wow I never knew Kieran Lovell had aboriginal in him. The more you know
