Charlie Cameron wouldn't of attended the camp as he was traded to Brisbane during the 2017 trade period in October, the camp was in January/February 2018.

This is from an article by Sam McClure he wrote in the Age in 2020.
Players were divided into three groups, based on their playing experience, prior to the journey to the camp. Group One, consisting of the more senior Adelaide players, namely Eddie Betts, Matt Crouch, Richard Douglas, Bryce Gibbs, Kyle Hartigan, Josh Jenkins, Tom Lynch, Rory Sloane, Daniel Talia and captain Walker, were the target of the most severe regimen. 

The second group, consisting of Mitch McGovern, Curtly Hampton, Paul Seedsman and Brodie Smith, had a less severe experience, though it was still described as "weird". 

The third group, consisting of the more junior players, were subject to what was deemed to be a regular fitness camp.

Without further investigation that looks a solid list.

Apparently there were groups of 12.

Need to have a look at how those guys went 2018

So Rachele plays SANFL today - does this mean Nicks loses his job this week? That's why Nobes lost his job when he played JHF in the VFL apparently :lol:

Graham Cornes article in the Sunday Mail re the camp was an absolute disgrace. He just does not get it :shock:

Pressure on Roo to resign is growing, he has to be gone at seasons end, the only one from this disaster still around!

On 5AA and also in the Sunday Mail article, he welcomed any class action by players because they would have to give evidence under oath. The insinuation is that players have lied about their experiences. Your right .... he doesn't get it.

It's a Graham Cornes article, I haven't read it but I'd be surprised if he didn't look to fully deflect or blame another source to attempt to protect his crows and his old mates.

Heck I'm sure he's probably made mention to Port in there as well going by his normal articles.

What Im saying is that it's typical Graham and Adelaide fluff media. Not worth the time to read it because we have all seen this script before.

Several, however I think we'll find out in time that each group was subjected to different treatment and those who had happy, healthy upbringings weren't given as much, shall we say, shit.

It is an interesting issue.

Way back in the late 1970s and early 1980s I knew fairly well ex-Norwood player (and Psychiatrist) Keith Le Page. I'd attended a few lectures he did for doctors and he knew I had been a Norwood supporter since the late 1950s. He used to do lectures on motivation technique for SANFL trainers too and occasionally when he was away I substituted for him. It was not the kind of heavy stuff the Crows camp used - more about focus than aggression.

One time the SANFL administration approached me about doing a similar thing for coaches of under 14 teams. My comment was that I did not think it was appropriate to apply that technique to kids that young - never heard from the SANFL again!

Strange hearing Olsen on the radio today. I'm not sure where this ends for Adelaide, he stated Riccuto isn't going anywhere, neither are the other board members.

But this tit for tat crap between 5aa's Penbo, Rowe and Cornes and Caro is very childish.

Again though, not sure how it all ends.

He never said Roo is going nowhere. He said it’s not on the agenda which is avoiding the question. It’s happening.
