A Flagmantle fan has slammed the UFC for scheduling the Perth Fight Night on a date when he will still be celebrating in Melbourne.
We spoke to the sports fan who was working out if he could change his flight home so he could continue his celebration bender at the event. He told us,
“It’s not like everyone didn’t have prior warning. The 2025 premiership has been sealed from about 6 weeks ago. It’s just disrespectful to Freo fans who will clearly be in Melbourne this weekend”
He’s not alone. In fact, the sheer volume of purple dollars flowing into the hands of Qantas means it’s virtually impossible for anyone to leave WA around that time.
We spoke to a source close to the Dockers who said a lot of members were pretty dirty at the UFC and the State Government. Adding,
“The feeling is that more respect should be afforded Fremantle for their fantastic victory in 2 months time. Is this some kinda consolation prize for Eagles fans who will deffinetly be in Perth that weekend?”
It’s hard to fathom.
