Fans are being taken for granted.

Is that the colt in the background of the mfc twitter update? Thought he was playing tonight?

In fairness the average fan wouldn't even know the VFL practice game is on.... Dland fans are a bit different of course

The VFL comp is taken for granted so it's lucky that a pre season hit out gets any coverage.

4-5 weeks until the next match for most of these guys

I'm guessing he will play 2-3 quarters and then will have a quarter in the seniors maybe?

Tholstrup, Jefferson, McDonald weren’t part of the main group of the captains run so clearly the emergencies for tonight, they might pull them out early to cover.

It is. I would imagine that any players named on the extended bench that weren't in the 23 I listed as training with the main group in the Captain's Run like Kolt, TMac and Jefferson will probably play a half or 3/4 in the 2s and then play a 1/2 or 1 quarter in the 1s.

Funny, potential old man eyes at play and point granted, but that's not how i read team selection.

[Demonland 71,622]

At least it's an update.

70k members is a fair audience

Errol Flynn, Tyrone Power and Roan Steele all ‘early’ matinee idols.  RS continues his fine run of ‘classic goals’ should have the turnstiles clicking over. Get him in mid-season draft!

Teams in the Practice Match can name and play an extended Bench. We named 3 players (Kolt, TMac & Jefferson) that didn't train with the main group of 23 yesterday. The photo I posted above from Carlton Reserves Twitter shows TMac and the Dees photo from Twitter showed Colt. An educated guess is that these 3 who were named on the extended bench for the Dees will play 1/2 or 3/4 with Casey and then 1/2 or 1/4 with the Dees.

I am really confused: the photo of the 'huddle' shows McDonald who, I thought, was named for tonight. I am also confused that there are 2 games this evening and on a hot day like today, how can players be expected to show up for 2 games? It's kind of surreal...

[Demonland 71,622]

Dees pile on 3 more.

See my posts above. They will either not play at all for the 1s or play 1/2 and 1/2 or 3/4 and 1/4.

Have you raised concerns with the club re our social media Andy? 

I assume you would have some contacts there that would pass on supporter feedback.

[Demonland 71,622]

Dees kick another
