It means a lot to pull it off and represent so many diverse people because folks who come watch us don’t feel like they have to be anyone else.
“It makes no difference who you are. It is quite special because everyone is welcome.
The club will have to wear its away uniform since St Kilda and Carlton will be facing off in a guernsey match for the AFLW Pride Round the following week.
