The game brings communities together and also provides a means of sending positive messages to their youth. Any AFL player or staff member of the West Coast Eagles Football Club, Indigenous or non-Indigenous who visits a community, carries enormous influence over the kids. This Reconciliation Action Plan brings together a lot of things and it is an important step for all Indigenous and non-Indigenous players and staff of the West Coast Eagles Football Club to be a part of closing the gap between Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people by providing opportunities.

The traditional Noongar dreaming story in short is about a great drought; the animals and Noongar people could not find any freshwater sources! The Waalitj’s eye was the only one that could find water from searching high up in the sky. The Noongar people followed him at this time of great hardship and adversity, and always found a fresh water source. The moral of the story is through great adversity, the Waalitj finds a path. His strength and power is respected and revered throughout Noongar country, because of his capacity to not simply overcome adversity, but to succeed in places that others fail. My artwork contained within the West Coast Eagles Football Club’s Reconciliation Action Plan and on the design of the inaugural West Coast Eagles AFL Indigenous Round guernsey includes tracks which connect to six fresh water sources throughout the state of Western Australia. The feature of the design is an image of the Waalitji (Wedge-Tailed Eagle) painted ready for ceremony and attack. The hope is that the West Coast Eagles Football Club takes on board many of the characteristics that the Waalitji possess and gains a better understanding of how important a totem this bird has been in traditional HIS STRENGTH AND POWER IS RESPECTED times and continues to be in the modern contemporary society. He is AND REVERED THROUGHOUT NOONGAR resilient and a successful predator and it is not considered in Noongar COUNTRY BECAUSE OF HIS CAPACITY TO culture a coincidence that he became the first symbol of this state’s first NOT SIMPLY OVERCOME ADVERSITY BUT TO AFL club, but a testimony of the totem’s strength and power. SUCCEED IN PLACES THAT OTHERS FAIL. Peter Farmer, Noongar artist, 2014 6 7 OUR VISION FOR RECONCILIATION The West Coast Eagles Football Club is committed to sustained success on and off the field and enriching the lives of the Western Australian community. The West Coast Eagles Football Club supports Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders and non-Aboriginal Australians working together towards reconciliation for the mutual benefit of all. The club respects the unique position of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders as the first peoples of our nation, and values the contribution they continue to make to our country, our community, to the game of Australian football and to our club. The development of our Reconciliation Action Plan has involved a review of all existing Aboriginal relations commitments, the formal establishment of a representative Reconciliation Action Plan Working Group, and Torres Strait Islander peoples, communities and organisations. The West collaborative and consultative engagement of staff across our organisation, Coast Eagles Football Club is very proud of our Reconciliation Action Plan as well as other key community and corporate stakeholders.

  • The David Wirrpanda Foundation
    Submission 004 ‘INQUIRY INTO THE CONTRIBUTION OF SPORT TO INDIGENOUS WELLBEING AND MENTORING’ A SUBMISSION ON BEHALF OF THE DAVID WIRRPANDA FOUNDATION Submitted by Lisa Cunningham (CEO) Catherine Gurney (Grants Manager) Kodie Blay (Operations Manager) David Wirrpanda Foundation PO Box 508 Subiaco WA 6904 (08) 9242 6700 1 1 Submission 004 A MESSAGE FROM OUR DIRECTOR “After years of doing community work, the David Wirrpanda Foundation is a formal way of recognizing the influence sport has on the lives of our children. The Foundation is a dream come true for me. I made my debut with the West Coast Eagles in Round 5 of the 1996 AFL Season, at the age of 16 years, and played in the 2006 premiership team. My first passion isn’t sport however, its community work in helping to improve the lives of young Indigenous Australians. But using sport as a magnet to attract our young Aboriginal people into positive activities to improve their education and wellbeing is an amazing tool that must be utilised. I hope you find this submission of assistance, and agree that sport has a a vastly significant contribution to the health and wellbeing of Aboriginal people”. 2012 NAIDOC Person of the Year David Wirrpanda SUBMISSION SUMMARY - The David Wirrpanda Foundation was born from an idea our Director, David Wirrpanda, had to increase the retention and attendance of Aboriginal children in education. David, a former AFL premiership player, knew first hand how passionate his people were about sport, and how this can be used to attract Aboriginal people to positive programs.

  • Week9 E-Record .Indd
    E-Footy RECORD 31st May 2008 Issue 9 Editorial with Marty King AFL AND AFLPA SET TO MOVE ON NEW ALCOHOL POLICY It’s terrifi c to see the AFL and the AFL Players Association working collaboratively to formulate a new policy on responsible alcohol consumption in the football environment. They are seeking feedback from each of the 16 AFL clubs, together with key national drug and alcohol experts, before framing a policy with guidelines that all AFL clubs and associated bod- ies like AFL Queensland can use to develop their own. This comes after a lot of background work was done over almost two years and the AFL Com- mission received a full briefi ng. The AFL, the Players’ Association and the AFL clubs understand that quite clearly that they have a responsibility to promote responsible drinking within the AFL and among the 16 clubs, the players and staff. But it’s not just about the elite level. The same will apply at the grassroots level and we at AFLQ will look to partner with the League on this important initiative. The guidelines within the AFL Framing Policy will provide a framework for AFL clubs and asso- ciated bodies to assist them in developing their own individual club responsible alcohol policies. The AFL Framing Policy lists a set of objectives for players and club staff, including the devel- opment of approaches for responsible consumption, effective pathways for treatment of alco- hol-related problems, creating responsible drinking cultures and using player welfare oriented and education-based approaches to promote responsible alcohol consumption.

  • Race, Photographs and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural
    A Forgotten Picture: Race, Photographs and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural This is the Accepted version of the following publication Osmond, Gary and Klugman, Matthew (2019) A Forgotten Picture: Race, Photographs and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural. Journal of Australian Studies, 43 (2). pp. 203-217. ISSN 1444-3058 The publisher’s official version can be found at https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/14443058.2019.1581247 Note that access to this version may require subscription. Downloaded from VU Research Repository https://vuir.vu.edu.au/39123/ A Forgotten Picture: Race, Photographs, and Cathy Freeman at the Northcote Koori Mural Visual images have played a key role in the history of Australia’s troubled race relations. As Jane Lydon has detailed, images of Aboriginal Australians and Torres Straight Islanders have been not only a key route by which non-Indigenous Australians have come to believe they know Indigenous Australians, but also a powerful site of intervention, protest and resistance by Indigenous Australians.1 The power of these images as a site of engagement, negotiation and struggle has depended on their circulation and reproduction – images typically need to be seen, often over and over again, in order to have a significant impact. It is a simple point, but one that is often taken for granted in the study of photographs and other visual images. It leads to the question of why certain images have become renowned, celebrated or decried, while others that appear equally (or more) deserving have not. This paper is concerned with one such image – of Australian athlete Cathy Freeman – that seems to have had little impact and was quickly forgotten, despite appearing on the front page of Melbourne’s most-read newspaper, the tabloid Herald Sun, in 1994, a time of intense debate around Australia’s race- relations.
