While Trent McClenahan did play some part in the latest Olyroos matches, Chesterfield captain Aaron Downes travelled but did not feature at all - incurring the wrath of manager Lee Richardson.
Richardson told the official Chesterfield site: "It can't be right that a player travels all the way to Australia for a couple of Internationals and takes no part at all. I feel there has been a lack of respect of the club's needs by the Australian Football Federation.
"If they weren't going to select him for any of the games then he should have been released, especially after the first game, to travel back to the UK to prepare for our important game against Mansfield this weekend.
"I will be contacting the Australian Football Federation to express my displeasure and will be looking for a proper explanation."
