100%. An organization as big as MFC would use a multi platform application that automatically posts to all its social media accounts from a single point of posting.
No chance somebody is logging in manually to FB, Twitter, Insta and TikTok and making updates separately. If they are, it’s no wonder our social media is so bad. 
 

It literally takes 1 second to update these things, and it’s really not good enough that it wasn’t done in a timely manner.

 Surely someone on DL has some connections at the club and can pass along this stuff up for future rectification. It is not much to ask. 

Yep there's all sorts of ways to multi-load data to several platforms, this wouldn't have been difficult at all.

I still find it ironic that in an age of the sporting organisation that wants their website/social media to be the first point of information, the one that wants you to have a digital membership because cards are too hard now, can't communicate vital info via these channels. 

Based on comments, half of Demonland was at Gosch's today. V Disappointing for you stalwarts

We get the most reports on the Wednesday Open Sessions at Gosch's. Seems like today would have been a bounty.

No training at Gosch’s today. Apparently it’s out at Casey today.

I know the training times page comes with a caveat but they should have some comms on social media if an advertised open session is moved or canceled. 

Hello Demonlanders, thinking like you all, I imagined that training would be at Gosh's today and at 10.25 logged onto Demonland ready to read your reports! After the first few posts and reading no training and having the morning free thought..... Sod it I'll just dash down there and do a Mini Report as from Berwick its not that far away. Hope thats O'K So no T.V Show intros and setting scenes for this one so I'll just get straight down into it.

REHAB  CLARRY, MAX, FARRIS WHITE, MELKY, MATT JEFFERSON, JAKEY L, JOEL SMITH AND 1 OTHER I COULDNT PLACE. Glad to see the Club being ultra cautious with Clarrie's thumb BUT the fact he is still troubled with it is worrying ( God I hate Selwood)

Got there at 10.50 to see Full match Simulation Game between the Blues and the Whites. Quite clearly the Blues were the A Team and the Whites were the possibles. Some interesting faces in the white Team headed by JvR and on todays form I couldn't pick him for a place in the ones just yet. JAMES JORDON also in White team as was MICHAEL HIBBERD and JOSH SCHACHE ATTACKY . Saw about an Hour and 15 of solid match sims. A few takes.

BEN BROWN was in SCINTILLATING form. he must have kicked 5 or 6 goals gave about 3 away. Took strong marks in pack and on the lead. Completely overshadowed ADAM TOMLINSON who although tried was just outmanoevered. HE IS A LOCK FOR ROUND 1 IMV. BRODIE GRUNDY was all over it like a flock of angry seaguls fighting over a legless prawn. His ruckwork was great and his run and carry and work below his knees was flawless. BAYLEY FRITSCH was also in scarry good form kicking some goals and cleverly placing himself in irresistable and dangerous positions.LACHY HUNTER,?? He is going to be a weapon and a half with his Run and carry up and down the wing and Flawless disposal. JAMES HARMES, JV, and KOSSY were just phenomenal in the midfield and just racked up disposals at will.CHARLIE SPARGO complemented the run and carry of the mids and was involved in several chains which resulted in Goals. T.MAC was a little quiet by his standards but still imposes and with his hi end run and leads created many opportunities.JAKE BOWEY playing in the Blue team was impassable across half back and his disposals were alway creative and on the money smart. Looks to have maybe beaten Hibbo for that HBF spot perhaps. The defense of MAY, HARRISON (THE HEARTBREAKER) PETTY were frugal and meaner and madder than a mosquito in a manikin factory.KADE CHANDLER also played for the Blue team and he was busier than a one armed man trying to hang a picture! Kicked some opportunistic goals and was really involved.

Thats about all I have and I'll be back at Casey next week with another Blockbuster training and T.V Show dialogue. I hope this mini report makes up somewhat for all you Landers that went to Gosch's which would also have infuriated me!

Cheers P.F

I’ve got my Melbourne shorts on and will be kicking the footy around with my son at Goschs shortly if anyone wants to report on me. Took the day off for this too. Go dees. 

Really sorry for both you and your son. On a positive note at least you can say you’ve spent more time on Gosch’s Paddock this pre season than Joel Smith. Hope the club makes it up to you.

Lack of information coming from the club is becoming endemic again. Website still has last year’s membership tally posted, with no updates. Why post training times at all if it isn’t current.?

Bring back Ben Gibson.

where has he gone?

CLARRY

 

If it’s the same thumb that’s troubling Clarry why didn’t he get the surgery at the end of the season rather than the Christmas break? Seems weird to me, hope this isn’t a mismanagement issue

I thought I read somewhere that Dodoro was asking for a future first round social media influencer to be added to the trade. 

You're a lifesaver @picket fence

Perhaps the club wanted a proper closed session????

Was it possibly due to JVR coming up against May/Petty - he wouldn't be the first key forward to have little influence against those two ?

LOL Pretty hard to get a Closed session with cyclone fencing all around and plenty of great vantage pionts outside the ground. Not the greatest place in the world though

Reminds me of classic Deep Purple song Pictures of Home "

Somebody's shouting
Up at a mountain
Only my own words return
Nobody's out there
It's a deception
When will I ever learn?

I'm alone here
With emptiness eagles and snow
Unfriendliness chilling my body

And whispering pictures of home
Wondering blindly
How can they find me
Maybe they don't even know
My body is shaking
Anticipating

The call of the black footed crow...
I'm alone here
With emptiness vipers and snow

Unfriendliness chilling my body
And taunting with pictures of home
Here in this prison
Of my own making
Year after day I have grown
Into a hero

But there's no worship
Where have they hidden my throne?
I'm alone here
With emptiness eagles and snow
Unfriendliness chilling my body
And screaming out pictures of home

Ooh ooh …
