PRE-SEASON action will ramp up this Saturday at IKON Park when the Blues take on the Demons.

Kicking off from 12pm, Carlton's line-up will feature a mix of familiar and fresh faces in a match simulation. 

Fresh off joining the Game Changers this week, Gen Lawson-Tavan will get her first run with the senior team while Irish recruits Erone Fitzpatrick and Dayna Finn will also get some game time ahead of the start of the season. 

Fans can attend the game for free with gates opening at 11am.

Food, beverage and snacks will also be available near the match-day pavilion.

The match simulation will be one of two pre-season opportunities for the Blues under new coach Mathew Buck, with the team travelling up to Sydney to take on the Swans next Saturday.
