Darren Potter, Dean Bowditch, Cody Cropper and Mark Randall all featured in a behind-closed-doors friendly with Peterborough United on Tuesday afternoon.
Potter, who has been sidelined for eight weeks with a knee injury, played 45 minutes while Bowditch also made it through the first period unscathed on his return from an ankle problem.
Cropper, meanwhile, has been out of action since early September with a knee injury but made it through the entirety of the clash at Woughton on the Green. Randall played 57 minutes in his second game back from a long-term pelvic issue.
The match finished 6-1 to the visitors, with the Dons’ only goal of the game coming courtesy of Daniel Powell after six minutes.
First-team coach Keith Andrews told mkdons.com: "It was good to see Cody, Darren, Dean and Mark get minutes under their belt - it was probably one of the only positives out of the game after losing by the margin we did. Bowds, in particular, set the tone for a lot of things we did in the first half."
Lee Hodson, Harry Hickford, Sergio Aguza, Giorgio Rasulo, Sam Gallagher, Cristian Benavente and Tom Hitchcock were the other first-teamers involved in the friendly.
