Kangaroos S7 Indigenous Guernsey - Adult - Women's

The North Melbourne Tasmanian Kangaroos have unveiled ‘Marram’, the club’s AFLW Indigenous guernsey for season 7.

 Designed by Wurundjeri/Dja Dja Wurrung artist Ky-ya Nicholson Ward, the guernsey will be worn by the Kangaroos across the next two weeks to celebrate AFLW Indigenous Round.

The design was previously worn by the Kangaroos men’s side earlier this year across the AFL’s Sir Doug Nicholls Round.

“Marram is the word for Kangaroo in Woiwurrung language, the language of the Wurundjeri people,” Nicholson Ward said.

 “The way I have represented it in the guernsey is to honour the Kangaroo. The Kangaroo only physically moves forward so it symbolises moving forward in a positive way and into the future in a positive way. I’ve also used Uncle William Barak’s men and women symbols used in his artworks.

 “The pawprint represents the players and their own unique journeys and the way they’ve come from different places across Australia and the world. It honours their diversity and uniqueness.

 “The meeting place represents the North Melbourne Football Club, it represents the players, staff and supporters all coming to Wurundjeri country to support the girls and boys.”
