Here is the first look at the unique footballs to be used in next weekend’s round of AFL matches.

Former Essendon and Port Adelaide champion Gavin Wanganeen has designed the artwork on the Sherrin balls made for the Sir Doug Nicholls Indigenous Round.

The artwork includes 18 circles representing the 18 AFL clubs and the number 67, in recognition of the 50-year anniversary of the 1967 referendum amending the Australian Constitution.

Wanganeen, a premiership player for both the Bombers and the Power and the 1993 Brownlow medallist, now works as an artist and has had his work exhibited across the country.
