Opinion Indigenous Power

[DPS72]

I'm guessing they'll play this if the boys win after indigenous round?

Better than the 1997 'Port Power' song they played in the NT last year!

 

[jdeezy]

I like it, and I like the fact we're not only using it in the NT, but giving people a chance to hear it at home. I'd be happy for Port to rock their Indigneous guernsey at that West Coast game too. Let us see it in the flesh.

I guess they'd need to officially actually show off the Indigenous guernsey first though. Why haven't we done that? I would like to buy one.

Well. Put me in my place hey.

 

[Nemisis]

Classic , would be good to hear it with a digeredoo and a bull roarer lol

Not sure about using the bull roarer. Unless of course you want to have a male only crowd.

 

[DaTBird187]

Great work by Paul and the club.

 

[Hellgood]

some of our squads best players in that pic

No disrespect to any of the guys, but only Wingard fits that description.

Guernsey looks awesome though, have we ever had an indigenous round game at home? Some reason I don't think we have yet.

Well. Put me in my place hey.

That's actually a really cool looking guernsey. The silver dots all over it give it that point of difference without making it too power-rangery.

Will buy. Thanks Karl

Actually I would love to see an Indigenous version of the Silver Fist and the lightning bolt.

I love how Paddy is included in the design!

Well done Karl - it looks superb!

And nice how Amon included the supporters. Excellent design and story.

Nah, we're always in the Top End on Indigenous Round, which is fitting, but it would be nice to have a home guernsey to work from. Maybe Bulldogs or Kangaroos or someone we wear black against even as an away team will take over the next deal in the NT, and we'd be able to use a Black Indigenous guernsey one day.

It may depend on a game in China in 2017 or, surely, 2018. By that time we may have a full-scale Indigenous Academy at Alberton which connects with a game at Adelaide Oval. I'm only guessing, mind.

Yes, but it is a disgrace that Paddy can't be in the photo with our other indigenous players to promote it.

Imagine Port Adelaide - the team that everyone said was too focused on Alberton and Alberton oval - with games and a following in China and with a full scale Indigenous Academy linked to games perhaps in both Adelaide and the NT in just a few years. Golden.

 

[RussellEbertHandball]

I really like the concept behind Karl's design more than the look of it. Probably need to get a good look in the flesh but it doesnt look as good as the previous couple of white guernsey designs.

 

[stokholme]

That song is ****ing rad. Is anyone else doing this for indigenous round or is PAFC leading the way once again?

Leading the way yet again

 

[scotty13]

Love the song! Give us the words so we can learn it and sing along proudly!

Port vs kangaroos 2012, good match it was

 

[Prison bar Pete]

Agree. Would be good to have a Kaurna version as well (get in before the Crows!)

 

[davo999]

Oops is that male only .? Is that to listen as well or just male only to play like the didge

 

[Dalphonso]

Oh no! The AFL are alerted now and will more than likely call for a design change.

 

[I Dont Care]

Yes, but it is a disgrace that Paddy can't be in the photo with our other indigenous players to promote it.

I agree. It's utter bullshit...we're not Essendon

 

[Steve Dore]

They are not even good at imitating.

The AFC's welcome to country consists of Kaurna Elder, Uncle Lewis standing in a suit with Eddie Betts, Charlie Cameron, Cam Ellis-Yolmen, Wayne Milera and Curtly Hampton standing behind him in match gear while he recites the welcome to country. Not a patch on the video we play.
