Murder accused teens face Perth court

Three boys charged with murder over the bashing death of a 26-year-old man after a post-Australia Day brawl in Perth are due to face court together for the first time later this week.

Patrick Slater was attacked with star pickets, screwdrivers and rocks during a fight between two groups near Elizabeth Quay Station in the early hours of January 27, and later died in hospital.

Two boys, aged 14 and 17, appeared in Perth Children's Court heard on Monday, when a fresh date was set as neither were ready to submit a bail application.

The court heard the pair would also not be in a position to apply for bail at their next appearance on Friday, when they will be joined by a 12-year-old co-accused.

The boy is one of the youngest people charged with murder in Australia and was 11 at the time of the alleged offending.

There have also been repeated deferrals of his bail bid as details surrounding who will care for him if he is released from juvenile detention are finalised.

The trio are among eight males who have been charged over Mr Slater's death.
