This means you can't stay airside and will have to clear immigration/customs in SIN and stay at a landside hotel. QF has a very good system for prioritizing bags, and you'll be treated as Y bags if you are flying Y on QF. The tag doesn't matter, it is based on the barcode which links the bag to your ticket.
Sorry, its rubbish!

Don't listen to
number_6. Yes you
WILL BE ABLE your luggage all the way to PERTH ! Just show your connecting flight info (ie e-ticket info) to PERTH to the CX check in agent at SFO. You're flying First Class ! They will go out of their way to accomodate you! Your bags will be tagged as F class. It doesn't matter if you are travelling economy between SIN and PER.
You will get to stay at the Ambassador Hotel. You do not need to go through immigration and customs.
The only thing you need to get is your QF boarding pass in Singapore at the transit counter.
Remember to book your transit hotel at TERMINAL 1 as both airlines use this terminal:
