Girls gone feral

Erin Pearson
A GEELONG nightclub has ordered “feral girls” to stay away after a series of violent incidents culminated in a wild brawl last week, according to management.
Room 99’s ban has won the backing of patrons who accused young women of drinking to excess and starting fights.
Room 99 director Ines Perovic said the latest violence, on Australia Day eve, was the final straw.
After the brawl she posted on Facebook that the venue was “over feral girls starting trouble”.
“We don’t want you in our venue,” she wrote.
“Take your boyfriend’s wrongdoings out on him and your bitchiness elsewhere. Oh, and get some class”.
Ms Perovic called the Australia Day eve brawl a “big one”.
The fight spilled out of the venue and onto Ryrie Street, she told the Independent.
Management was “fed-up” with young women starting trouble.
“Often we equate fights with boys but lately they’ve all be instigated by girls,” Ms Perovic said.
“The last eight incidents in our venue have all been instigated by girls. I’m talking about girls punching other girls, not just having words.”
Ms Perovic said Room 99 had banned three women and one man for six months over last week’s brawl.
