Fremantle are encouraging all our supporters to come out in force on Saturday for the NAB Challenge Derby against West Coast at Subiaco Oval to support the Victorian Bush Fire Appeal.

The funds raised from the game at Subiaco Oval on Saturday 7 March will go towards assisting sporting clubs affected by the Victorian Bushfires.

Fremantle CEO Steve Rosich said both clubs were united in their support of the game.

“We were delighted to work proactively with the AFL on this initiative,” Rosich said.

“As a follow on from the $19,623 raised at Fremantle’s NAB Cup fixture at Subiaco Oval against Richmond, it is another great opportunity for Fremantle supporters and the WA football community in general to support this very worthwhile cause.”

Patrons can use public transport at no charge upon presentation of their match ticket three hours prior to and after the game on Transperth services.

Transperth has agreed to waive its usual charges to allow for increased funds to be raised for the Victorian Bushfire Appeal. Ticketmaster will also make a contribution from its usual match-day fees towards the appeal.

Tickets to this match will be sold on a reserve seat basis and must be purchased to reserve a seat. Reserved 2009 AFL Premiership Season seats do not apply to this match.
