GO WITH IT
TIME TO CELEBRATE The First Nations Rounds over the past fortnight have been a wonderful celebration – and they have featured some brilliant footy and impressive celebrations. Rounds 7 and 8 have recognised SANFL and SANFLW Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander players past and present who have made, and continue to make, a significant contribution to our great game. The 10 clubs revealed stunning guernsey designs telling unique stories, while Adelaide was known as Kuwarna – the Kaurna translation for the word Crows – and Port Adelaide as Yartapuulti – the Kaurna translation for ‘Yarta’ meaning place or land and ‘Puulti’ which means sleep or death, the name Kaurna people gave the land around Port River. There have been moving Welcome to Country ceremonies and the Indigenous players, men and women, of North and South linked together at Prospect Oval. And the goal celebrations of West’s Luke Redfern and North’s Lachie Grubb showed off their outstanding guernseys. Photos: Peter Argent and Matt Talbot
