Switkowski focused on Port clash as finals fate hangs in the balance

Fremantle will take on Port Adelaide on Sunday 25 August at Optus Stadium in the Club’s final game of the 2024 home and away season.
 
Bounce down for the round 24 clash is at 4.10 WST.

This weekend is Fremantle's Member Thank You round, where the Club will pay thanks to the record number of devoted members who have shown their support throughout 2024.

As the final match of round 24, the results of the Carlton, Western Bulldogs and Hawthorn games will decide if Freo has the chance to play finals or not.

Fremantle requires one of those three Clubs to lose their respective matchups, and then must beat Port Adelaide to jump into the top eight and continue on in season 2024.

Tickets are available for the clash via Ticketmaster, starting from just $39.

2.30pm – Gates Open
