“Get a Guernsey” = Được khoác trên mình màu áo của Guernsey (áo của một đội bóng đá ở Australia) -> Được chọn vào một ví trí, được ca ngợi/tuyên dương và công chúng biết đến.

Ví dụ
We note that locals commenting on the post have expressed their disappointment that Stockton, West Wallsend and Toronto didn't get a guernsey on the campaign poster. There was also sadness among the good citizens of Beresfield, Argenton, Raymond Terrace and Morisset that their suburbs (ngoại ô) missed out on selection.

Then, in a volte face, he announced terms of reference that focused on "practical matters". Climate science doesn't get a guernsey. The key topics include preparedness (sự sẵn sàng) and recovery, natural disasters, hazard reduction burns, wildlife conservation (bảo tồn thế giới hoang dã), development approvals and a raft of other matters mainly the preserve of the states.

Bob Joyce writes: There is one thing missing from the discussion here. The definition of religion. Christians get a guernsey, presumably all flavours from Catholic to Mormon to Hillsong and everything in between and beyond. So do all the varieties of Islam, and Hindu. I assume that the Pagans will get a look in, and you can’t really deny that Scientologists and Satanists should also get a run. People who believe in Baphomet? Rastafarians? Pastafarians? Me and my mates down the pub who worship the Boags Draught tap? Is there a limit?
