  • Why Are Black Fellas So 'Darn' Good at Footy?
    Why are black fellas so ‘darn’ good at footy? Paper written by one of the many top Oncountry Learning students Carmen Hawker, as part of her major research essay for the course, 2009 – a course that she explains ‘completely inspired her to do other Indigenous studies subjects, including an internship with the Koori Courts justice system’. I think it’s an excellent and a very informative piece of research analysis and writing that gives a deeper insight into the reasons why were so darn good at footy. It’s a question that I like to raise when we are hosted by the Academy of Sport Health & Education, ASHE program, and the Rumbalara Football and Netball Club, RFNC Shepparton, who nurture the talents of many up an coming young sportspeople. This is the way that Carmen has dealt with the fundamental question and the reasons why Indigenous Australians seem to have an ‘innate suitability to this code of football’- do enjoy (Dr Wayne Atkinson, Coordinator, 166392: Oncountry Learning: Indigenous Studies, School of Social & Political Science, University of Melbourne). Koori Mail, 2003: Deadly mark & eye for the ball son There has to be a reason why Indigenous Australians make up only two percent of our national population but fifteen percent of Australian Football League (AFL) club lists.1 This essay will attempt to identify the reasons why not only the number of Indigenous players in the AFL is growing year by year but why they exemplify the electricity, skill and flare of Aussie Rules.2 Some say it is because football has its roots in the traditional Aboriginal game Marngrook, others say it is the style of the game itself that suits what seem to be natural Aboriginal characteristics, speed and agility.
