Thought last years was a better look to be honest.

the away strip part spoils it

I hate it. Looks stupid.
I don't know why the club needs to do this. We don't even have 1 good indigenous player.

I'll play the devils advocate here.
Do we need indigenous players in our team to recognise their contribution to the game or to wear a dreamtime jumper?
Do we need a good one?
Is it still relevent considering we have had our share of champion indigenous players in the past?
Does the dream time jumper mean something to our aboriginal supporters?

Are the bummers having a stupid jumper?
Do aboriginal supporters really care if we didn't have a stupid looking jumper?
Do we need to have an italian jumper now?

Truth be known, i am not fussed about what the bummers are doing. We can take the lead on some things without being reactionary, however, i believe it was the bummers coach of the time who thought of the whole concept of a dreamtime game.
Also, i would hesitate to suggest that aboriginal players have had a significant contribution to our game in terms of participation than any other background.
My point is, i have no issue with the jumper, it don't hurt anyone.

Mr. T., i do understand your frustrations in a sense. Hardly a week goes by without a 'such and such cup' with someone winning a 'so and so' medal in a recognition round of some description.
I do like the rivalry round and indigenous round though.

we should rename round 1 against carlscum. Wogarama.
I wonder what jumper we would come up with.
And let's not forget India.
We could really tap into the Indian culture and make all the players wear the curly toed shoes instead of footy boots.

why do you whine so much when you think you are missing out something? it's not like you are actually losing anything.
you seem to have some serous prejudices.

Last years guernsey was better and I will be wearing that on the night.

no Al I don't have any prejudices. I don't like the jumper I think it looks stupid. I don't think it's necessary to change it. It's my opinion. An opinion isn't right or wrong.
I guess you will be buying the jumper then and will wear it proudly. Good for you.
-
wogorama????..please elaborate
-
Did not like last years, this one is worse!
Looks like a test pattern.......

ah, i thought you were against the concept of the dream time game.
Apologies.
dont really give an eff about jumper though, it has no bearing on the outcome of the game.
-
a completely stupid design. looks like a sample you get from Bargain Tiles.
-
wogorama????..please elaborate
Well my vision is quite large infact.
We begin with some prematch with Vince Sorrenti comic genious as people take their seats.
The parade of past wog champions headed by triple brownlow medalist and richmond champ Ian Stewart (Cervi) as well as other past italian greats Stephen Silvagni, Anthony Koutoufides, John Kennedy Jr, Robert DiPierdomenico, Peter Matera, Peter Riccardi, Alan Martello, Mark Mercuri, Saverio Rocca, Brendan Fevola, Mark Ricciuto and tiger legend Mark Merenda.
It's all a massive build up before the start of the bounce when instead of the national anthem Joe Dolce belts out the famous hit Shaddap_You_Face.
At half time Tina arena can sing some numbers whilst a sea of little wog auskickers stop their game and do the tarantella and the chicken dance.
The food served would only be quality wog dishes cooked served by all the mammas and nonnas which means not 1 of the 90000 fans will miss out on any food.

umm, not sure if you realise but its a themed event dreamtime, one could argue if we chose to ignore really embracing the occasion we'd have our heads well and truly immersed up our clacker..get into the spirit :lol

ok I'm going and I'm going to honour the land of the warrandigi but I think the jumper shouldn't be changed. I think it looks stupid and I don't think it's necessary to change it.
I do however really wish we had some decent aboriginals in our team and it annoys me that rioli is playing elsewhere.
-
+1 for a wogtime jumper :bow
-
What about an Aussie time jumper, just need a splash of
sauce on the sash and bobs ur uncle.......

That's beside the point we did have one of the greatest in Maurice Rioli and greats Michael Mitchell, Phillip Egan and various others like Richard Tambling, Ashley Blurton, Andrew Krakouer and Marty McGrath. Get with the times and the spirit of the event.
You started on us Wogs from Lalor and Thommo and now you have moved to the Indigenous Aussies.There's a word for people like you it escapes me right now.......

Well said Tucker
On top of that....
We also house the Korin Gamadji Institute which is the Australian Institute for Indigenous Learning and Skills Development. We run programs in Alice Springs schools and other parts of the NT for Indigenous children. Our Club is workling hard to not only embrace a unique culture but also through these various programs they are trying to improve things
So I think our links to Indigenous Australia run a lot deeper than past footballers.
That's why our clubs does these things and personally i reckon it is great. Sure as hell beats paying "lip service"
And although I am again not sure about the actual design on this years jumper (because I love Indigenous art) I applaud the club for embracing this game and all it stands for in this way

Looks good.

Ok i'm going to mention this 1 more time just incase you all think Im racist or something.
I like the dreamtime concept. I've been to every dreamtime game.
My dislike is with the jumper. I don't like it. I didn't like it last year either.
Why is it so wrong of me to hate our great jumper being changed?
-
I agree, I don't like the jumper being changed for any reason, no matter how noble.

Should play in no shoes

I prefer the look of last year's one to this one but if we win on Saturday night then who cares. It'll probably bring in a few extra $$$ in sales for the Club too.

Dookie asked me to let everyone know that he loves the new jumper

He would.

Great stuff, thanks for the info RFCO. Gee the club has turned itself around in the past few years in so many facets.

Will that involve recruiting someone who doesn't pee off back to the N.T after 6 months?

It means it will go to assist with the running of the education programs through the Korin Gamadji Institute

Richmond reveal Dreamtime guernsey
By Tim Clarke
SportsNewsFirst
14 May 2012
RICHMOND has revealed the one-off guernsey it will wear for the Dreamtime clash with Essendon this weekend.
After the popular concept last year, the Tigers offered Indigenous artists the chance to design an own original style for the Tigers' guernsey.
The winning entry was voted on by a judging panel, which included Aunty Joy Murphy, Leon Egan and last year’s winning artist, Jirrra Harvey.
Stuart Harradine, an independent Wotjobaluk man of the Wimmera in Western Victoria, was the lucky artist chosen.
“As an Aboriginal person, I am especially proud of the impact that Indigenous players like the great Maurice Rioli and the dynamic Michael Mitchell had on the club, and during those times I gained no small satisfaction in knowing I barracked for a club that valued Aboriginal football talent,” Harradine told the club website.
“Now, with the inception of the Dreamtime game and the establishment of the Korin Gamadji Institute, my feelings of connection as an Aboriginal man to the mighty Tigers are even stronger.”
All proceeds raised from the sale of the Tigers’ 2012 Dreamtime guernsey will support the club’s Indigenous programming.
