Is the general public allowed to take signs into games especially at the MCG? Is there a size limit or a certian section you have to be sitting in?

Ive always thought a big banner with "WELCOME TO HELL" would be good, whats everyone elses ideas?

    Yes i would love to see more welcoming signs as the Demons climb the ladder. Opposition supporters have been giving it to us for decades. The MCG must become a feared place when the red & blue are there. Look at how Geelong OWN Kardinia. We are also still at our home ground.

    The Club had a similar idea - that the MCG must be our "Home" ground - that teams should fear to play us there. So they got us a... bugal player. :blink:

    Only time I've seen the AFL have an issue with a sign was the first North-Adelaide game when Carey played, as there were quite a few around about him and Anthony Stevens' wife around.

    Josh love the idea but too often the MCG has been HELL for Dees supporters. I'll never forget that Brisbane game last year... the worst win I've ever suffered and yes not to far from HELL.

    I just wanna see a huge "GOOD TIMES GRIMES" banner in the crowd. Would make my day.

    Would give someone $20 to make a huge banner saying "I LOVE TRENGROVE, PETTARD AND MALONEY!!"

    I'd give you $20 if you spelt more than a 1/3 of the players names correctly.

    I hope this helps to the original question...

    - Alcohol

    - Opened soft drink containers

    - Cans/glass

    - Torn-up paper

    - Musical instruments

    - Whistles

    - Flags with handles exceeding 1.6 metres

    - Fireworks/flares/laser lights

    - Chairs/stools

    - Rollerblades, skateboards or scooters

    - Animals (guide and hearing animals excepted)

    It's not like there will be an opposition fans to get narky at the GWS game so as long as your banner isn't one of those Port Adelaide style bay coverers or has foul language on it you should be fine.

    I'm hoping the $2m Turd doesn't even make it to Round 13.

    I want him to break down 20 minutes into the final quarter of Rnd13, with GWS 130 points down.

    Beware though , MCC attendants are on constant alert for "offensive" signs to confiscate. I suspect any of ours which feature $cully won't last !

    Why is this though? I mean, even if the players are a bit precious these days, it's not like they should actually be taking the time to read the signs. TV censorship maybe?

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Port Adelaide

      The undefeated Demons venture across the continent to the spiritual home of the Port Adelaide Football Club on Saturday afternoon for the inaugural match for premiership points between these long-historied clubs. Alberton Oval will however, be a ground familiar to our players following a practice match there last year. We lost both the game and Liv Purcell, who missed 7 home and away matches after suffering facial fractures in the dying moments of the game.

    • AFLW REPORT: Richmond

      A glorious sunny afternoon with a typically strong Casey Fields breeze favouring the city end greeted this round four clash of the undefeated Narrm against the winless Tigers. Pre-match, the teams entered the ground through the Deearmy’s inclusive banner—"Narrm Football Weaving Communities Together and then Warumungu/Yawuru woman and Fox Boundary Rider, Megan Waters, gave the official acknowledgement of country. Any concerns that Collingwood’s strategy of last week to discombobulate the Dees would be replicated by Ryan Ferguson and his Tigers evaporated in the second quarter when Richmond failed to use the wind advantage and Narrm scored three unanswered goals.

    • CASEY: Frankston

      The late-season run of Casey wins was broken in their first semifinal against Frankston in a heartbreaking end at Kinetic Stadium on Saturday night that in many respects reflected their entire season. When they were bad, they committed all of the football transgressions, including poor disposal, indiscipline, an inability to exert pressure, and some terrible decision-making, as exemplified by the period in the game when they conceded nine unanswered goals from early in the second quarter until halfway through the third term. You rarely win when you do this.

    • AFLW PREVIEW: Richmond

      Round four kicks off early Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields, as the mighty Narrm host the winless Richmond Tigers in the second week of Indigenous Round celebrations. With ideal footy conditions forecast—20 degrees, overcast skies, and a gentle breeze — expect a fast-paced contest. Narrm enters with momentum and a dangerous forward line, while Richmond is still searching for its first win. With key injuries on both sides and pride on the line, this clash promises plenty.

    • AFLW REPORT: Collingwood

      Expectations of a comfortable win for Narrm at Victoria Park quickly evaporated as the match turned into a tense nail-biter. After a confident start by the Demons, the Pies piled on pressure and forced red and blue supporters to hold their collective breath until after the final siren. In a frenetic, physical contest, it was Captain Kate’s clutch last quarter goal and a missed shot from Collingwood’s Grace Campbell after the siren which sealed a thrilling 4-point win. Finally, Narrm supporters could breathe easy.
