Sydney Swans AFLW Season 7 Adults Indigenous Guernsey

  • Fabric: 87% Polyester, 13% Elastane

Designed by Lisa Sansbury, mother of Sydney Swans champion Adam Goodes, the club’s original Marn Grook jumper depicts where the city meets the sea, telling the story of Indigenous people coming together around Sydney’s harbour and estuaries.

The red and white parts of the jumper represent meeting places, while the blue represents the water, all illustrated through connected circles to show that the land is connected to the water.

The design was first worn by the men’s team back in 2014, and at the time, Adam Goodes explained the meaning of the detail his mother put into her unique creation.

“When you think of Sydney, we’re pretty much surrounded mostly by water on the east coast, so it’s about us living with and on the land with lots of water around us,” Goodes said.

“The red and white parts are the meeting places, which actually intertwine with the water, which is the blue.

“There are lots of circles on the guernsey, which are all connected, which means that the land is connected with the water.

“There’s a beautiful story in there, and the story is a tribute to my late Aunty Margaret.”

Lisa Sainsbury’s design was worn by the men’s team in 2014-2017 and the pattern is shown in the club’s Marn Grook logo.
