TICKETING
For this match, you will need to get yourself into the ground. This is either by using your Home and Away membership or by purchasing a general admission ticket through Ticketek.
Unfortunately we didn't receive as many tickets as we'd hoped for so we can only offer tickets to Demon Army members for this match. (Sorry - no extras.)
​We only have enough tickets for a third of our members so please be prepared to have to find your own tickets for this match. It's not what we wanted and we're not happy about it but it's beyond our control.
​
Let us know who you're booking for and who you're keen to sit near and we'll do our best to keep everyone happy.
CLICK HERE to purchase your tickets.

IMPORTANT - All Demon Army seats will be allocated. You will receive your ticket from our award winning ticketing team on Wednesday morning.

RUN THROUGH
The run through for this week has been made as a joint effort with the Richmond Cheer Squad on Wednesday 17th April.

WANTED - BIG FLAG WAVERS!
Did you know we have a group of people who sit and analyse our replays to see how we look and sound? Yes, it is a bit tragic but it shows huge dedication to the group and a sense of pride in how the group looks.
We know most of our equipment is clustered down the front of our area and then we have a few big flags half way back. Bit of a strange one but we're looking for some assistance from our members who sit further back or in the bays around us to help plug some holes. If you think you might be able to help occasionally, please have a chat to the people handing out equipment each week. You won't be locked in to doing it each week but doing it once or twice a season may make all the difference.
And now when you watch the replay, you too can focus on big flags!

​OBSERVANCE CEREMONY
The Observance Ceremony will take place from approximately 7.05pm. We ask you to stand, remove hats and observe the minute silence in respect for our Armed Forces.

FUNDRAISING
There's a few fundraisers coming soon!
From a signed 2024 team guernsey, a pair of boots, and Guard of Honour positions, there'll be plenty of things to spend your money on!

FIRST GOALKICKER
Help support the group and have a bit of fun. Enter our First Goalkicker for just $2. You'll be allocated a player randomly and if your player kicks the first goal, you win $20. Click here enter


You can now also purchase for the whole year in one go. For full details check out our First Goalkicker page.

CLEAR THE AREA!
We've had a request from our post-match crew for all members to please clear the first 6 rows at the end of the game. We're not talking about the happy moment when we've won and everyone comes down the front but the period after the players have left the field, when people come down for a chat while others are trying to pack up and get out. Security has been instructed to move along anyone not actively packing up.

Could all members also keep their eyes out for our equipment walking out of the stadium, particularly the big heads. If you see someone trying to steal our gear, please let security know.​

BIG FREEZE BEANIES
The Big Freeze returns to the ‘G for 2024, and once again, we paint the MCG blue with the new Big Freeze 10 Beanies, and raise much-needed funds for vital research to beat the Beast that is Motor Neurone Disease.
Order yours here. Pick up will be at Rounds 11 & 12 from the back of M3.

SEE YOU AT THE BAR
No Lock Up Bar this week, so join us at the Outer Bar on Level 1 behind M30.
