    Thanks for that.

    I just hope it is selling at a price that the whole supporting community can afford.

    A lower price product sold in greater volume can produce better returns than a higher price product sold at lower price.

    Lets get the demand for this beautiful jumper up to represent the usually hidden supporters.

    Most AFL sanctioned and distributed merchandise is provided in very limited distribution compared to other clubs.

    Lets own this, club make it easily available, I hope they have plenty at the ground when we play doggies.

    Just got the advice from the club. Sent before I had posted.

    Well done.

    $130 seems pretty steep I hope it doesn't discourage purchases.

    As an artist I’ve got to say our jumper is a ripper. Amunda has done an amazing job and should be super proud of the work. I’m excited to get one.

    But…
    WTF was Port Adelaide doing? I didn’t see them trying to be supportive of emerging engineers when they built the stadium, and just get the work experience kid to build it. Sentiment is given far too much credence in the arts and cultural space. At the end of the day if more organisations supported more professional artists communities would get a better product - and be much more inclined to continue to support funding art and cultural endeavours.

    It’s not the kids fault - she’s a teenager and can’t comprehend the cultural and economic reasons why what she did is wrong. Port should know better, and anyone advising them should have told them to get some professionals involved. They aren’t going to play a member of the cheer squad in a forward pocket on the weekend just because it’s a ‘good story’. Bizarre.

    Apparently only small and extra large sizes left!

    what a beautiful jumper - I’ve got to say the jumpers that are designed for our club for indigenous round are spectacular.

    the women’s indigenous jumper this year was so good I bought my 17 year old daughter Casey Sheriffs match day jumper for her birthday....and she loves it!!

    Unless you are colour blind, that is not a clash. What a joke.

    To be honest though, it seems more appropriate to wear it against the Lions in our game up in the territory. 

    could wear it more than once ?

    Love the Indigenous jumpers each year, all clubs. The story's behind the artwork I find absolutely fascinating. I know little to nothing about aboriginal culture (which is a poor reflection on the education system in my opinion, but I don't want to turn this into a political argument)

    The ability for indigenous artists to not only tell a story through a painting but fully articulate that meaning perfectly to non Indigenous people's is amazing.

    With the utmost respect each year I see these jumpers and think "it just looks like dots and lines" and then you watch an explanation video and it's so obvious the meaning. 

    I have no doubt that it is as clear as day the meaning to other Indigenous people's. Amazing stuff.

    I guess 30,000(?) Years plus will do that.

    Brilliant design. Been meaning to buy one in previous years. Will buy this one

    Same here. Assume they'll auction the match-worn ones as well. 

    I'm a few beers in at the pub (weekend away with the better half)...perfect time for auction bids.

    Has it sold out? Make some more New Balance!

    Just want to buy one and have Mayzy and Kozzy sign it but all adult ones sold out

    Seemingly some Youth Large still available, that may be best option.

    Out of interest, what do player auctioned ones usually gone for?

    Why won't New Balance crank more out, beautiful strip - looking forward to seeing it in action

    Great Front Bar episode tonight with Kickett & Winmar.  Forgot how good Kickett was.  Amazing highlight reel.  Those torps on the run freakish.  Seems like a great bloke too.  What a travesty he was left out of the 93 GF by Sheeds and missed getting a cup.

    I still can’t fathom how the AFL saw a clash with the bulldogs indigenous guernsey, predominant red with bits of navy blue vs predominantly royal blue with hints of red and white. Can only imagine after the ANZAC Day blunder with Pies and Bombers they’ve got skittish. 

    Anyway it’ll be great to see us where it this round, and if there’s perhaps a opportunity maybe we wear it again if there’s a navy clash.

    Loved this years jumper. Definitely looking forward to getting one if possible. 
     

    I hope we can wear it again this year. Maybe swap Dees v Giants to Alice Springs for round 16.

    • GAMEDAY: Hawthorn

      It’s game day and the Demons are chasing a fourth straight win as we take on the high flying Hawks at the G. After decades of being tormented by the Hawks the Dees will be keen to extend their 7 year dominance over Hawthorn.

    • NON-MFC: Round 09

      Round 9 kicks off out west with the Dockers hosting a Collingwood side resting several stars. Fremantle need to make a statement on their home deck after some disappointing form on the road, while the Magpies will be keen to maintain their Top 2 position. Friday night sees a must-win clash between two sides desperate to stay in touch with the eight. St Kilda have shown glimpses while Carlton are clinging to relevance after a flat start to the season. Saturday’s twilight game at Marvel pits the Bombers against a struggling Sydney outfit. Essendon can’t afford another close match against a lower-ranked side, while the Swans risk sliding down the ladder even further. Up in Darwin, the fourth-placed Suns will look to extend their stay in the top four. The Bulldogs have hit their stride with three big wins on the trot and will be very keen to consolidate on their momentum. The always fiery Showdown looms as pivotal for both clubs. Adelaide are eyeing a spot in the Top 4 with a win, while Port Adelaide’s season could slip away if they drop another game and fall further behind the pack. Sunday begins with a yawn fest between Richmond and West Coast. The Tigers need to bank the points to stay clear of the bottom two, while the Eagles are still chasing their first win of the year. The Giants face one of the league’s toughest road trips as they travel to GMHBA Stadium to face the Cats. With GWS at risk of a third straight loss, Geelong will be eager to consolidate their position inside the eight and start their climb up the ladder. The round wraps up with the top-of-the-table Lions heading to Ninja Stadium to take on the second-last Roos. The Lions should easily take care of the struggling Roos who might be powerless against the best in the comp. Who are you tipping and what are the best results for the Demons?

    • PREVIEW: Hawthorn

      Melbourne and Hawthorn who face off against each other this week have more in common than having once almost merged and about to wear a blue jumper with a red v triangle and an embroidered picture of a bird on the front. They also share the MCG as their main home ground, their supporters are associated with the leafy suburbs of Melbourne and in recent times, James Frawley graced the colours of both teams. Even more recently, both have bounced back from disastrous five game losing streaks to start off a season. Of course, the Hawks turned their bounce into a successful leap from the bottom of the ladder into a finals appearance, making it to the semifinals in 2024 and this year, they’re riding high in third place on the AFL table. The Demons are just three games into their 2025 bounce back, and are yet to climb their way out of the bottom four although they are sitting a game and percentage out of the top eight. However, with the current sportsbet odds of $3.90 to win this week’s encounter, it seems a forlorn hope that their upward progression will continue much longer.

    • REPORT: West Coast

      On a night of counting, Melbourne captain Max Gawn made sure that his contribution counted. He was at his best and superb in the the ruck from the very start of the election night game against the West Coast Eagles at Optus Stadium, but after watching his dominance of the first quarter and a half of the clash evaporate into nothing as the Eagles booted four goals in the last ten minutes of the opening half, he turned the game on its head, with a ruckman’s masterclass in the second half.  No superlatives would be sufficient to describe the enormity of the skipper’s performance starting with his 47 hit outs, a career-high 35 possessions (22 of them contested), nine clearances, 12 score involvements and, after messing up an attempt or two, finally capping off one of the greatest rucking performances of all time, with a goal of own in the final quarter not long after he delivered a right angled pass into the arms of Daniel Turner who also goaled from a pocket (will we ever know if the pass is what was intended). That was enough to overturn a 12 point deficit after the Eagles scored the first goal of the second half into a 29 point lead at the last break and a winning final quarter (at last) for the Demons who decided not to rest their champion ruckman at the end this time around.

    • PREGAME: Hawthorn

      The Demons return to the MCG to take on the High Flying Hawks on Saturday Afternoon. Hawthorn will be aiming to consolidate a position in the Top 4 whilst the Dees will be looking to take a scalp and make it four wins in a row. Who comes in and who goes out?
