Fremantle will remain in WA until at least mid-August with the AFL confirming a further three home games at Optus Stadium between rounds nine to 12.

As expected, Fremantle will play Collingwood in round nine, with the twilight clash to be played at 4.10pm on Sunday 2 August.

Fremantle will then have a bye the following week, allowing Victorian clubs Hawthorn and Carlton to arrive in the WA hub and complete a 14-day quarantine. 

The Hawks and Blues will face off while in quarantine. 

Freo will return to Monday night football after the bye, taking on Hawthorn at 6.40pm on 10 August. 

Following a five-day break, Freo play on Carlton in a Saturday night clash at 6.10pm on Saturday 15 August. 

With Fremantle facing Geelong in round eight this Monday night, it means they will play three night games and one twilight game between rounds eight and 12. 

Fremantle CEO Simon Garlick said the club was happy with the fixture release.

“After playing the first six rounds of the 2020 season interstate, we are obviously pleased to have an extended run of games in WA,” Garlick said. 

“We are delighted that we will have the chance to showcase Optus Stadium under lights against big-name Victorian clubs in Collingwood, Hawthorn and Carlton as well as our upcoming clash against Geelong this Monday. 

“We were thrilled that our young group had the opportunity to play in front of our members in the RAC Derby and, fingers crossed, that will continue and we can treat our supporter base with some big games in the coming month.

Ticketing information will be communicated to members and corporate partners in the coming week.
