Also this might be unpopular, but as much as Koch, Thomas and Hinkley cop shit on here for accepting mediocrity, not one of those blokes would ever have signed off on a camp like this, or tried to sweep it under the carpet after it happened.

A knife, a harness and the ‘power stance’: Eddie Betts reveals ‘cult-like’ training camp
A pre-season training camp for the Adelaide Crows left the AFL champion feeling ‘shattered’, and he says his complaints led to him being dropped from the club’s leadership group. He tells the story in a new autobiography.
Wish Betts would've exposed the training camp group so this would never happen again.
Lmao the camp had received overwhelmingly positive feedback from players and the club at the time, yeah right.
All sounds pretty fked up to me how on earth any sane person at any footy club could get involved in this rubbish in the first place is amazing.
Just have a BBQ piss up in the Parklands,would have cost a lot less and been more positive.
So much BS in footy now all this Americanised crap.

“The saddest” aspect of Betts' camp revelations and those now with “a lot of egg” on their faces
Kane Cornes has given his thoughts on the Eddie Betts/Adelaide camp revelations.

Not a Karen Cornes fan, but this is pretty cutting

Ex-players shocked by Betts’ experience, AFLPA believes players were ‘pressured’ to stay silent
The AFL and SafeWork SA confirmed they would not re-open an investigation into the Crows’ 2018 pre-season camp, but the AFL Players Association said it believed players were pressured to remain silent and would recontact them to discuss their experience.

"Ricciuto is the only senior off-field figure who remains at the club since the camp with chairman Rob Chapman, CEO Andrew Fagan, coach Don Pyke and football manager Brett Burton all finishing up at the Crows within the past four years."
How many more scandals need to occur at West Lakes before Ricciuto 'moves on'? I mean, seriously.
Or is he protected by his relationship with the pokey baron hotel owner and former Crows Board member who also has a key role in the Adelaide Oval SMA?
Surely not. Those things just don't happen in little old Adelaide do they?
How do you even respond to this ^
They've gone from Eddie's Pocket to Eddie's Hip Pocket in under 60 seconds.
Say what you like about Koch, Thomas and Hinkley, but they have never put down a player for being too slow in the 2km time trial. They only do it to greyhounds
Gave a mighty mean look to Jimmy Toumpas though
Just wait till he finishes ... Really is gonna cop it!

SafeWork SA's investigation went as far as, was this camp conducted in SA? No? We therefore have nothing to investigate.
Also, anything signed off by the AFL Integrity Unit is probably the least ethically/morally business practice to be done.

Missing Wayne and Lyndy, but this is their supporter base.
