With MP , we now have 9 indigenous players on our list

Shai, Shedda, Daniel, Junior, Marlion, Dekka, Melee, Syd & Parker

How bloody good is that

Was it 16 that Neesham had in the 1st Freo squad ?

I reckon it’d be great if we played all 9 this week.

Very good. We've overtaken the Bummers as the favorite club for indigenous players. Always love watching them play. The more we have, the more they'd feel at home.
 
Pretty sure we've fielded a Dreamtime team at least once without any indigenous players.
Caroline Wilson said that in the age, but missed the fact Edwards was indigenous.

I Believe that my sources said she might have possibly been mortified she'd actually been caught making a mistake in an article.

Must have really hated it when the club called her on it and she had to admit the mistake.

She wrote an apology a couple of years later.

Still looks a pretty decent side.
 
Is Nank indigenous? You'd think AFL Indigenous Programs would know.

A search of their facebook page shows in 2013 they congratulated Nank on getting drafted along with a number of other indigenous players.
 
Is SPS from Carlton worth having a chat too?, looked like a real talent , however now appears to be Carltonised , is there a vaccine for that ?

Assumptions and mistakes are made all the time, and players are added to and removed from the list.

e.g. Gary Malarkey and Lindsay Gilbee were recently added, and George Simmonds (played for Melbourne in 1924) removed, as well as Brandon Walker and Joel Western from the current Freo list and Aiden Bonar from North.
