The overarching theme of the guernsey is palak yunti-warrun ‘bringing people together’ which is on display every home game at the Adelaide Oval when Members, fans, commercial partners, players, coaches and administrators come together and ngantun yamalai ‘Fly As One’.

The Club is symbolised by the large daldawi tunar “Crow track” print in white in the centre. This is surrounded by 23 white dots which symbolises the 23 Indigenous players past and present who have represented and donned the Adelaide Football Club’s guernsey since inception in 1990 and is a celebration and acknowledgement of their contribution, commitment and dedication to the Club.

The large circle in the Club’s tri-colours which surrounds 23 white dots serves two symbolic purposes. Firstly, it symbolises the Club’s respect, recognition, commitment, and acknowledgement to those 23 Indigenous players and the wider Indigenous community and secondly it symbolises the Adelaide Oval as the home of the Adelaide Football Club and the place where thousands of Members and fans flock every football season to witness and anticipate the achievement of great things.

The circles on the outer (navy, red and gold) symbolise and acknowledge those Indigenous communities from around Australia from which the Indigenous players originated from and that they are connected to, whilst the connecting lines (navy, red and gold) symbolise the connections between players and their community as well as the many journeys and pathways each player would have endured to achieve and live their dream to play AFL and represent the Crows. The pathways all eventually lead to the large circle in the Club’s tri-colours and daldawi tunar “Crow track” in the centre of the guernsey.

To embrace all of the above depicted on the front of the guernsey and symbolised by the royal blue dots is the community, Members and supporters and daldawi tunar “crow tracks” which represents the players and Club, walking together on the journey to reach greatness and achieve success as one.

On the back are kuko kanaki “two fighting sticks/clubs” and kuko yo:yang-amaldi “two warriors in combat” which symbolises the courage, skills and strength required by the players to enter a yo:yanggi “battle”.
