FREMANTLE veteran Danyle Pearce won't pursue further action against a spectator in a corporate box who allegedly racially abused him after Sunday's game against Richmond.

Pearce was an emergency for the 104-point loss to the Tigers and came onto Domain Stadium about 30 minutes after the final siren to complete extra running when the incident occurred.

The spectator contacted Fremantle on Monday and offered to personally apologise to the 255-gamer after the Dockers confirmed they were investigating.

Club officials will meet with the male spectator to discuss the incident, but Pearce didn't wish to take the matter further.

"The incident on Sunday was not the first time I have experienced racism in my playing career," Pearce said.

"It is unfortunate to think that racist attitudes still exist in this day and age.

"I try to put experiences like this behind me and realise it demonstrates a lack of understanding and education on behalf of the person.

"I thank the AFL and the Fremantle Football Club for continuing to address racism when players are confronted with it."
