MELBOURNE has revealed its 2026 Pride jumper, with the design celebrating the AFLW’s impact in creating safe and inclusive spaces for the LGBTQIA+ community. Â
Â
The club’s AFLW playing group helped design this year’s guernsey, selecting its structure, colour palette and meaning.Â
The design process, which began over a year ago, involved reimagining and inverting Melbourne’s iconic flame ‘M’ to form a rainbow ‘W’. Â
Words chosen by the players themselves anoint the back of the guernsey, capturing what pride means to them and further connecting the jumper to the team’s values. Â
Pride Round will run across the next two weeks, Melbourne set to pull on the jumper this Saturday against Gold Coast and in Round 10 against Richmond. Â
The Dees will host the Tigers for their home pride game, which is set to be a Friday night party at IKON Park. Â
