Essendon Football Club would like to congratulate Nathan Patterson on winning the club’s 2015 Dreamtime Guernsey Design Competition.

Patterson’s design was selected from a wide range of entries into the competition since launching earlier this month.

In Nathan’s own words his design represents Essendon Football club’s enduring support of Indigenous communities through the footprints of Michael Long’s walk and the recruitment of Indigenous football players.

It highlights the ripple effect this has had not only in bringing together our Aboriginal communities but also in reconciling Indigenous Australia and non-Indigenous Australia…. walking together.

The design will be revealed to the public in early 2015.
