Woodside is among Australia’s largest polluting gas companies. Its plans to build the Scarborough Gas Project and Pluto extension would generate emissions over its lifetime equal to ten years of running all of the country’s coal-fired power stations combined!
No matter where it is burnt, the gas Woodside digs up is fuelling climate damage and destroying Australia’s precious places like the Great Barrier and Ningaloo Reefs, compromising the wishes of Traditional Owners and putting people’s health at risk.
How do they get away with it? Woodside, and other big polluters, are sponsoring and exploiting our favourite sports to buy a positive reputation.
When Woodside plasters its logo across the purple hearts of Fremantle Dockers players, it’s paying for the connection and loyalty we feel for sports, and marketing themselves as a community-oriented brand – all so that Woodside can keep polluting.
We need to stop Woodside from using sports sponsorships to wash away their dirty image. That’s why, we're calling on people, no matter what footy jumper you wear or if you don’t support any team, to sign this petition:
Our teams are not for sale. We urge the Board of Fremantle FC to immediately end its sponsorship deal with Woodside Energy to protect the people, places, and game we love.
We will be delivering the voice of the community and your messages to the board of the Fremantle Dockers Football Club. Sign now and share!

Who is allowing this company to pillage our land and oceans and make squillions while doing it? It’s shameful.
Woodside are one of Australia’s biggest polluters and Burrup Hub’s planned extension to 2070 is outrageous. They are literally stealing my children’s future! Our future! Your future! Right now they are dredging and about to start seismic blasting in the middle of whale season. They don’t care about 40,000 year old Indigenous rock art or the desires of Traditional Owners, they don’t care about the whales swimming past their seismic blasting, they don’t care about the environment, or our planet. They don’t care about footy. All they care about is getting as much Fossil methane out of the ground as fast as they can to cash in on high prices from Putin’s miserable war. Woodside’s social license is extended by sports washing. Woodside needs you to but you don’t need Woodside. Give them the boot!
Like the Saudis paying off FIFA for the World Cup and funding LIV Golf, Woodside buys a sport social client base. Same!
Stand up to corporate window dressing and tell Woodside your not interested in their sponsorship.
Have the balls to do the right thing, Australian Netballers did with Rina Rinehart.
Woodside support for sport is an insidious maneuver to buy support for its destruction of the environment
Woodside are destroying this beautiful country that we live on. They could have chosen to put the Burrup Hub elsewhere to protect the densest area of Aboriginal rock art in the world, but they didn’t. Respect is completely lacking. Please give them the boot!
Enough oil and gas greenwashing while they destroy the environment for us and our children!!!
This has got to stop. These companies are the reason for climate change and ruining our children’s future. It’s that simple. Why would you want their names plastered on your kids jerseys and all over sports grounds. It’s a disgrace
Don’t be a part of sports-washing no matter how lucrative. Seek sponsorship from companies that can inspire and lead our young people toward healthy futures, and show support of global wellbeing.
I’d love to see WA Ballet (as well as Fremantle Dockers) refusing to accept sponsorship from climate-wrecking Woodside.
Please make the right choice and give Woodside the old heave ho outta here
We need to do everything in our power to transition to a green future…
