A beautiful yarn with Aunty Pam Pedersen (Nicholls)

AFL, Football, Interview

This week is Sir Doug Nicholls Indigenous round in the AFL and the Chicks had a beautiful yarn with Aunty Pam Pedersen (Nicholls) a proud Yorta Yorta Elder, a passionate advocate for her community and Sir Doug’s youngest daughter.

Pam provides great insight into the significance of the AFL Indigenous Round being named after her father, to Sir Doug Nicholls football journey, to how important the Aboriginal flag is to Aboriginal people, to the excitement of the Dreamtime game being played in Darwin for the first time.  We loved this yarn and hope you enjoy it as much as we did.

Bree, Bec and Fi also manage to talk about footy news bubbling around and review the Round 12 matches. Give us a listen.
