The actions in our plan for the period 2013-
2015 focus on nurturing and developing the
existing relationships and partnerships the club has with Wurundjeri Land Council and Elders, Northern Territory communities in Wadeye and Tiwi Islands, the Rumbalara Football Club in Shepparton and The Long Walk. There is also a genuine passion and commitment to expand our programs and influence within our local community and
to represent and work with the Wurundjeri people to continue strong relationships and provide lasting outcomes, especially in the area of employment and health. 

We want to ensure that through our actions, plans and communication that the richness and the diversity of Aboriginal cultures and people is reflected and represented in a way that honours and respects the partnerships and relationships formed along the way.

In 2012 the Club announced Michael Long as its official Indigenous Ambassador. Long is one of the most recognisable Indigenous figures in AFL football and championed the Indigenous cause within the AFL. Following an on-field racial incident in 1995, Long was a pioneering force behind the racial abuse code that was adopted by the AFL. Long continues to march on in the pursuit of improving Indigenous wellbeing through the work of The Long Walk.
