after the Grand Final loss, they had gotten every player to run successive 100-metre sprints while the theme song of the Richmond Football Club played on repeat over loudspeakers. Collective Minds and the Adelaide Football Club had a multi-year regimen with each other. Prior to the camp, Crows players were made to sign non-disclosure agreements barring them from publicly discussing the events of the camp. Allegations about the camp The camp, run by Collective Minds and masterminded by Head of Football at Adelaide Brett Burton and Amon Woulfe, a self-proclaimed "coach, facilitator and trainer", who is not a registered psychologist, took place in a forest about an hours drive away from Broadbeach, Queensland, a suburb of Gold Coast. It was run with the intention of strengthening the mental capabilities of the players, which had been blamed by senior staff as the cause for their Grand Final loss. The players were not told where they were going prior to the trip. 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. Players were housed in tepees for the duration of the camp. According to an unnamed Adelaide insider who was quoted by the Herald Sun, the camp was "like a trance", with this unnamed insider also claiming that players had had difficulty remembering what had occurred on the camp. Experience of Group 1 Upon entering the bus that was to carry them from Broadbeach to the camp, Group 1 was alarmed to be greeted by men wearing combat uniforms and holding what appeared to be automatic firearms, though the guns were revealed to be fake. The players were then blindfolded, and were driven for an hour until they arrived at the camp. Upon arrival they had their blindfolds removed, and were greeted by roughly 25 camp workers, who refused to reveal the location at which they were.
