• Vanilla Bean Cafe Owner Adam Salerno has never missed a Dockers game. His shop is heavily decorated with the Purple Haze, and the framed poster he is holding is up for raffle. So far $700 has been raised, and the winner gets to choose which organisation the proceeds are donated to.
• Year one and two students from Christ the King school in Beaconsfield. They have been chosen to play in the half-time nipper’s game at the Dockers v Hawthorn preliminary final. Student Fred Rodriguez plays for the Fremantle City Dockers Junior Football Club and played in last year’s Auskick AFL grand final. Unfortunately, mum is an Eagles supporter. But then, you can’t choose your family.
• THE mysterious artist who’s been decorating the side of the Woolstores usually has a political bent to their artwork, previously referencing global conflicts in Palestine and Syria. But the latest piece to pop up touches on a civil war a little closer to home, with a massive Matthew Pavlich stencil sprayed across the ground floor wall.
