Thats because there are *alot* of aboriginals there, and they've become accustomed to saying bloke. Its quite cool really, me and my friends use bloke often, just to be stylish. Also, in Perth, accents change suburb to suburb. Head to the eastern hills, and its a lot more relaxed language than the norther suburbs.
