00:00Yeah, so each year we have an Indigenous round to put efforts and emphasis on celebrating
00:10and sharing and acknowledging culture, Aboriginal culture.
00:14Our club is all about reconciliation, so for us Indigenous round probably is every week,
00:21but it's always nice to mix it up with a special jersey, you know, we'd love to see anyone
00:28from community come down, if you want to taste the culture, you want to have a look at how
00:35a welcome works or how a smoking ceremony works, or even some Aboriginal dance on Saturday,
00:41come down and check it out.
00:42I guess I've become a bit of a, I'm not a narcissist or anything, not that this isn't
00:43my artwork or anything, but I get a bit of enjoyment out of mucking around and playing
00:44around with jerseys and different designs here, there and everywhere, and it actually
00:45works for, what it is, the Indigenous All Stars jersey from last year, so we've played
01:05around with it in partnership with ISC, the guys that made the gear, with the permission
01:13of course, of the NRL All Stars, but yeah, we wanted to make it a little bit more formal,
01:19and in previous years we've used local artists and things as well, but we just try and mix
01:23it up each year and give everyone an opportunity.
