Designed by Mali Isabel. THE ARTWORK of Melbourne's 2024 Sir Doug Nicholls Round guernsey is fittingly titled 'My Heart Beats True.'

The design was created by Mali Isabel, an Arabana and Kokatha artist living on Kaurna Country, whose family's special connection to the Melbourne Football Club is at the core of this year's jumper.

Mali's intricate art, centred around a heart, tells the story of her younger brother and passionate Demons fan KC Melbourne Herriman-Place.

After suffering from cardiomyopathy, his first cardiac arrest at just 11 years old, KC received a heart transplant in 2020.

He was on the transplant list for 405 days and on March 16, his life was changed forever.

Bursting with pride for her brother and his resilience through this time, Mali was thrilled to be able to honour KC and his journey in Melbourne's Indigenous guernsey for 2024.
