To be screened on the Bullants’ popular social media pages, the video was created by the club’s social media guru Michael Jordan without the aid of financial backing.

“We just used what we had,’’ Jordan told Leader.

“The footage that was used was a combination of our experienced and young players as well as showing how we are helping to develop Carlton’s rookies.’’
