That Crows training camp in full

I confess, I hoped that someone would reveal all regarding the infamous Crows training camp and Eddie is the man to do so.

A knife, a harness and the ‘power stance’: Eddie Betts reveals ‘cult-like’ training camp

It reads like a plot from a bad movie. Many of the events were already public (the power stance, the use of the Tigers song), but there are new details around the inappropriate use of cultural practice, and using personal information that players thought was given in confidence.

And wouldn't this ring some alarm bells?

After the Crows lost successive games in the 2017 season, Betts says the training group reviewed game videos and claimed they had identified where the playing squad had lost these games.

At fault was the way players had run through the supporters’ banner onto the ground, they said.

Yet the club clings to the line "sorry if some were offended" rather than just admitting that they got it very wrong. Reading this, I completely understand why Eddie went back to Carlton.
