Adelaide should be hit with draft penalties as an example to all the other clubs not to do this poo.

Correct Ramps.

My question is why did betts hang around sign contract extensions if he hated the pricks?

Terrible story that is sure to sell a few extra books.. Just saying.

Ahhhh, at the end of 2019, he’s left the club and gone to the Blues.
Thank god people like Eddie exist in football. Hold the bastards accountable for the crap they do.

agree but what is going to happen? SFA just like the supplements fiasco. Evans was it got the heads up from someone. The place is as corrupt as you can get.

They make me laugh the AFL, yet some thought demetriou was bad. :lol :lol

He joined the Crows on a 4 year deal in 2014; it took in 2014,15,16 and 2017

He re-signed during 2017 before the infamous camp in 2018

Being a contracted player to get out of Adelaide had to agree to trade him. In 2019 they did

Interesting. My good friend over there tells me today that he signed after the camp.

Maybe he hoped he did.

 :lol

one of the finest pictures you will see. If i recall these 3 stooges or at least 2 of them were the ones who came out straight away and said the camp was great and taught them a lot.

Its safe to say they wont be any good coaching.

So everyone is now coming out to say sorry, including Gil as CEO of the AFL.

Honestly this whole thing is disgusting. Even stuffing work safe went and had a look. All this information was known years ago (bar the specifics from Eddie's point of view re: his family etc). We know about the disclosure of personal issues to be used as abuse and whatnot.

Totally disgusted that the club, CM, work safe and the AFL didn't have to balls the hit this on the head until someone kicked the hornets next. It makes them all look bereft of competence and humanity.

Work safe should have fined the club for endangering the players psychological health and the AFL should have stripped them of draft picks.

The firm that arranged the camp that took the Age (I think) to court and Caroline Wilson etc. will they be taking Eddie Betts to court now?
The club that keeps giving.
