UPDATE: Real estate website Domain has been unveiled as new naming rights sponsor for Subiaco Oval.

Subiaco Oval will be used to host AFL matches for a further three years before games shift to the new Burswood Stadium in time for the start of the 2018 season.

WAFC officials found the new sponsor to take over the final leasing rights at Subiaco Oval in a deal that will help fill funding shortfalls faced by WA’s peak football body.

It is a coup for the commission, which had been bracing to re-sign Patersons on a reduced deal that would have slashed revenue from about $870,000 a year to less than $300,000 annually.

The announcement comes just days after the WAFC secured a fifth sponsor, Kennards Hire, for the broadcasting package for the WAFL starting this season.

WAFL matches will appear on Channel 7 for at least the next three seasons, with fast food giant McDonald’s the new naming rights sponsor of the league.
