As part of the growing relationship between AFL club Hawthorn and AFL New Zealand in 2010 the Kiwis adopted the Hawk emblem (replacing the Falcon) and a Hawthorn inspired jumper. Recall that story in Hawks Loom Huge in New Zealand. It's interesting now to see that Hawthorn are selling that jumper. Although there's an obvious financial benefit to Hawthorn it should also help raise awareness in Australia of NZ footy. Perhaps one day we'll see a Hawthorn match for premiership points "across the ditch", with the Hawks gathering local support wearing this jumper. You can see the Hawthorn / NZ jumper at the Hawks' online shop (click on PUMA Apparel). |
