With Anzac Day falling on a Friday next year, the Devils will clash with Casey Scorpions at Bellerive in round five for premiership points.
The club has always promoted the Anzac Day round -- usually with a match against Frankston -- but will play on the day for the first time since handing North Ballarat a 77-point hiding at North Hobart in 2004.
The Devils open next season with two away games against Bendigo and Box Hill -- the only two sides it defeated in 2007. Home-and-away matches have been evenly split, with Collingwood's decision to field a stand-alone VFL side increasing the roster season to 20 matches.
However, the Devils have the opportunity to "buy" home games, and Coburg has shown interest in selling its match on June 14.
