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.

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

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.

And their bombs and their guns.
In your head, in your head, they are crying...

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.

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?
