The jersey was designed by Elenore Binge, a proud Indigenous Australian and an avid Raiders fan.
Elenore’s jersey design incorporates several features which are synonymous with the ACT, the most prominent being the Bogong Moth and the ACT colours of blues, white and yellow.
“This jersey is a celebration of the Ngunnawal people and the Bogong Moth, which the actual Aboriginal name for is Urri Arra,” she said. “The Bogong Moth is unique to Canberra and very special to the area.”
“I really love the jersey,” Raiders star Jack Wighton said. “I think it’s a really good design and it’s great to see the club recognising the Aboriginal culture.
“I was lucky enough to meet Elenore after our trial in Tamworth and she’s a lovely lady who absolutely loves the Raiders.
“She’s done a great job with the jersey and it’s nice to see there’s a local feel about it with the Bogong Moth and the ACT colours featured in it. It’s wonderful that we’ll be showing our respects to the Ngunnawal people and I think that our fans will be stoked with how it looks.”
“Close the Gap Round is a wonderful thing that the NRL is doing in bringing two different cultures together through their love of the game,” Binge said. “It helps celebrate reconciliation, Aboriginal culture and assists in closing the gap between the health inequalities of Indigenous and non-Indigenous Australians.
