That is insane.Richmond had relaxed HHH sessions (talking about your Hero, Hardship and Highlight moments).
We trolled players about the murder of their coach and the recent death of a sibling.

Not true. Narrow minded view.
Triple J had an interview with a cult specialist a while back, very interesting stuff:

So much of Adelaide FC and Collective Minds over the past 12 months.

To appreciate light. First you must get to know the dark
As above so below.
There's such a spiritual aspect to all this

Wasn't an insult.
Was funny.
Was accurate.
Collective Minds and its influence on your club is certainly cult-like. I can see it and there are plenty of examples that do fit the description I said above (the camp, Walker messaging everyone about leaks, etc). I honestly don't care if you disagree or can't see it, it's not my club self destructing.
It's interesting for everyone else that isn't blinding themselves to the facts of the situation.

.
It's always nice to be lectured by the fan of a club, reliant on a corrupt system to stay out of crisis.
We value your input tremendously.
Relax Crows fans, its an Adz thread. You are now going to win every game for the rest of the year, re-sign all players and have every other player in the AFL wanting to get traded in to the club.

Id be concerned if the captain of my club didnt text players about leaking inside information to the media.
I suppose he could've done a Cotchin and got his partner to cry on social media about it?
I think you're far overstating the effects of the camp. I dont think we're struggling on-field because of the camp. We simply just do not have the personel to compete at the moment. We did compete for a few weeks with our 2nds in, until the inexperienced players got sore and tired yet had nobody to replace them.
I dont think your team would do that well with say Riewoldt, Cotchin, Rance, Lambert and Caddy on the sidelines.
Do you realise that this collective minds thing started pre last season?
A season where we were the best team for most of it and fell at the final hurdle.
I guess we'll see come the end of the year whether half the squad leaves like you guys seem to think.
Also your club self destructed for about 30 years. Dont pipe up when you're briefly a successful team.

Who's lecturing?
Like I said to your mate, it doesn't bother me what you do. One less team to worry about the better.

Apparently this is the world class best footy department in the AFL that Andrew Fagan promised the customers when he joined the Crows. Sounds like a bunch of amateurs to me.

Adelaide are not done yet.
I remember flogging you guys so many times. Tony modra didn't have to train the week he played you. Got free entry and drinks to crazy horse all week
Now that was a crisis.

Lol Chapman said today you are continuing with CM. Sounds like the forever camp is based at the swamp to me.

Roo has too much power and a Fagan is his puppet.

Lucky you had the easiest part of your draw while you had the injuries, otherwise the tally wouldn’t look so good.

I don't think you guys are either. I think it can be easily turned around. On field will of course be hard given the injuries but off field will determine the future direction.
Get rid of Collective Minds and most of your issues go away. Prove to the players that their wellbeing is more important than a cult.
Isnt he on that "future of the game" committee or whatever it is called?

i suspect as always the truth is somewhere in the middle.
however, IF we have ended up going on some kind of camp, and they have done what ended up transpiring what is alleged to have happened to betts and jacobs, then the club needs to have cut all ties with this absolute nonsense. i dont know who thought it was a good idea in the first place, but it clearly, on top of the injury management, has failed.
so to see stuff about the club potentially being involved with them again is unbelievable.

What would you know? You've only got about 30% of the facts, whereas Ive got about 60%. Hey, I know twice as much as you! Go figure.

This is the main reason I think there's a lot of garbage involved.
Surely alarm bells would ring at the club if these reactions were the reality.
For example with the Jacobs' brother thing...there's a huge difference between having a player talk about it with trained psychologists, to then bringing it up in a negative 'torturous' manner like is being reported.
I mean theres a point where people say enoughs enough in a professional organisation.

To be fair that was the last time you were relevant before now.
How about the fact that this rabble smashed your team not 8 weeks ago?
