Former Fremantle Docker is facing fresh domestic violence allegations – this time for allegedly threatening to share a compromising image of his ex in an alleged act of ‘revenge porn’.

The West Australian can also reveal the footballer, who was known as ‘The Prince of Pockets’ during his career, is accused of recording a private activity that he was part of – twice – as well as breaching a violence restraining order.

The alleged recordings took place in November and December 2019 in Attadale – the same location where Mr Chisholm was accused of attacking a former partner.

The former AFL star was due to stand trial last July on allegations he assaulted his ex and had damaged her phone during two alleged incidents in 2021.

However, before proceedings began police prosecutors dropped the three charges against the 47 year old.

A few months later, in September, he was due to face court again on two separate domestic violence charges - breaching protective bail conditions and possessing a controlled weapon.

The West Australian has since learned the inaugural Docker faced Fremantle Magistrates Court in December on six new charges which include the revenge porn and recording offences.

Chisholm is accused of threatening to distribute an intimate image of a former partner on May 2020 in North Fremantle. He then allegedly breached a VRO in Bicton a few months later.

He has also been charged with possessing a prohibited drug (cannabis) and possessing drug paraphernalia.

Those alleged offences are said to have taken place in Attadale on August 25 last year.

Adding to Chisholm’s woes, is a civil matter brought against him by The City of Melville. The local government authority is pursuing Chisholm for unpaid debt.

City of Melville chief executive Marten Tieleman would not comment on the matter but confirmed the city had a debt collection procedure, which “at times may involve the engagement of legal services to assist with debt recoveries”.

A means inquiry hearing between the parties is listed in Perth Magistrates Court later this month.

Chisholm, who played 63 games for the Fremantle Football Club before he was traded to the Melbourne Demons in 1998, is expected to appear in Fremantle Magistrates Court again next week.
