So impressive by Eddie. He’s such an honest and true person.
The AFC and AFL failed not just Eddie, but every player who was subjected to psychological abuse on that camp. It’s great to see Eddie speak out, sad that meaningful action was never taken.
Why are you all such pansies?
Like what?
Literally every person who was involved in that saga has been moved on from Adelaide.
@@MrBarry465 That doesn't matter. If the people aren't held accountable, then they think they can get away with it.
Psychological abuse? People these days are so weak minded 😂
@@wheelson7895 Nice use of irony.
Recken ya boys will be at the mighty Bluebaggers hey Ed! Love ya mate so proud of your strength and leadership.
In Eddie we trust. Love ya mate and you have my support and respect. You have brought so much to our game. Thank you.
Lol, he literally says it wasn't just about the aboriginal players and then Robbo's next question focuses only on the aboriginal players and that the issue was only with aboriginal players. I guess making it specifically about only aboriginal players gets more clicks, views and news.
Yeah I felt vicariously stressed listening to Robbo. Betts emphasised twice in this interview it wasn't just indigenous players who were affected.
Spot on👍
Well the narrative at the moment is whit people bad so that’s what the media has to push to get the clicks and it’s creating division
Eddie betts a wonderful man ambassador for his people and example of how to cope with the trials of life a real champion
Good on ya Eddie! Love ya mate. We made mistakes. Love to have you back one day at the AFC.
Stuff the AFC! Why would he go back?
@@michaelfeast9869 did you not watch the video?? He still loves the footy club and the city. The club has apologised to him which he accepted it.
@@michaelfeast9869 you didn't watch. How about you respect Eddie's wishes.
im a port supporter but no one better to watch i used to really look forward to crows games because of Eddie, loved watching you eddie. im not much of a reader so i cant wait for the movie to come out !!!
It is a tragedy how a game of catching, kicking and chasing a ball, can damage so many of the players that achieve the highest levels of performance, physically and mentally for the remainder of their lives.
that camp destroyed that club.
I agree, that team that went to this camp was capable of winning a premiership. Crows supporters have been robbed of a flag.
@@stewartgardiner9792 Crows players were robbed of their innocence.
Just do a power stance, that will show them
I've been living amongst these coward's most of my life, watch your back Eddie these people don't like taking L's and they don't go away. Stay safe, stay strong and don't stay silent they'll come for you and your family at some point, be prepared.
FFS he went on a stupid camp and someone hurt his feelings 5 years ago, get the hell over it!
Probably need to get off the internet bud 👍
@@Edtheboss973 it’s really bad when they used your private conversations about your personal life and use it against you I would be pissed off about it
@@Edtheboss973 wake up. It's abuse. And if you don't see that maybe you are part of the larger problem
@@kevsmagpies1306 I actually told some stuff to an unqualified counselor who did exactly that but guess what, I shrugged and moved on and didn't whine about it for the next 5 years. FFS.
Blobbo:"... I accept it partly but I don't accept it at all".
I hope other players come out and speak the truth, not just Jenkins and Betts. I remember the way Tex harangued a few players publicly when they left the club, particularly Jake Lever, getting really personal and implying he was a weak person because he wanted a trade and bigger money elsewhere. You don't need to wonder why now. This was right before the camp but I'd be surprised if the trade didn't have something to do with Walker's and other leaders' attitudes towards what they considered to be mutiny in the ranks. Either way, Walker is in no way fit to be a leader of any sort and it just shows what poor decisions the club made in the first place making him captain, sanctioning a camp like this, and then his blatant racism that came out a few seasons after all these other Crows had left the club. You only have to look at Walker's performance in the 2017 Grand Final, and more importantly his body language and attitude when things weren't going their way, to know what sort of 'leader' he is, backed by mates like Ricciuto who every time he opens his mouth on these issues you see why things went so south.
All love to Eddie. We will all kick up a stink. What a disgrace for Adelaide FC.
It's been 4 years since the camp and the footy club has moved on but can't because Eddie wrote himself a book that had to throw crap back at Adelaide. We've got a new coach, Chairman and CEO now.
I'm not saying that what Eddie is saying is wrong, I'm sure what he experienced was shocking and traumatic for him.
One thing about the release of Eddys book.All the focus has been on the infamous camp and its overshadowing the celebration of all the woderful things he has achieved.
Awesome eddie
NO
I don't think it was our game that failed him, it was more Adelaide FC and their decision to run that camp. 'Our game' has always been behind him.
“Our game” that has racially abused him? Yeah that sums AFL nicely
I would say that the AFL upper management and the crows that failed him, not other clubs and players that werent involved
AFL did a health and safety check of the game and didn’t find anything wrong with it. They’re at just as much fault.
@@David-lq8cx and there's the snowflake.
The AFL loves our indigenous player's princes.
what happened to eddie?
eddie stand up what you believe in onya brother he has every right to speak out in what happened the people who criticise eddie get a life
Look what happened to Adam Saad on the weekend not surprised
One comment from a whole round of footy snowflake.
But good on you making it about racism 🤦
I've never spoken to man at a pub who doesn't think you're a legend, stay true and ignore the fire
He is one amazing human being this man, if he so desires he would make a huge difference politically, hopefully with his courage this book can make a difference in some small way, hopefully a big way
Little off the topic ,
Breaks my heart as a Carlton supporter that he wants his kids to play for crows after what that club has put him through ,
To me i don’t consider Eddie as a true blue anymore ,
It’s a true Shame
Should of stayed at carlton
The Melbourne Storm do this boot camp EVERY pre season. They’ve been the most dominant team in their sport for 20 years. Adelaide do it once and everyone starts crying? 😂
Wasnt a boot camp tho
@@chook2870 what was it?
This comment is made out of ignorance. The camp has clearly ruined the Adelaide football club and they need to own that mistake they haven’t done so
@@Chuckakhan Explain to me how this is ignorant? Training/boot camps are designed to build resilience under duress or change of environment. I feel sorry for management because they thought it would make them better when in fact it probably showed them how many sooks they had in 1 team.
@@npd6225 The melbourne storm intentionally get players to reveal private thoughts and feelings during councilling sessions and then unknowingly to the player give that information to staff and team mates and use it as abuse? We arent talking about a tough training session and pushing it physically and players being soft. We are talking about intentional psychological abuse towards players. You clearly are out of touch when discussing this and have no experience when it comes to these types of boot camps because the military themselves do not put initiates through something like this as they are aware for most/the untrained it is nothing but damaging. Athletes are not Spec Ops.
Do really feel for Eddie, can see here how much of a struggle it is to revisit these things. He's done here what he's consistently done and had the courage to face it open and head on, all as an attempt to push things in a positive direction. But the current media reaction and the public forum seem solely focused on the camp, and missing his grander vision. The narrative set by headlines and interview questions is completely at odds with what Eddie is putting forward here.
Would be nice to grow past this for the better like Eddie has, hope that comes once people get past the initial shock.
Did someone take his talking stick??
OK, just tell how much $$
And to think all of this could have been avoided if the arrogant Adelaide Crows didn't do their Power Ranger stance thinking the game was already won! Tigers broke them completely.
Well done to Eddie for calling out the massive cultural issues at that club. Says a lot when a former captain in Tex is a racist himself.
Sounds like living under Dan Andrews during Covid19 Psyop.
Eddie is a great of the game but I hope he doesn't turn into Adam Goodes.
It was just some names and he should get over it.
POWER WOULDNT OF ALLOWED THIS
You were there?
sad to see
If you take the emotion out of this, this is an ad for a book
What actually happened at this camp ??
I am sick to death of Bett's gripes.
F@#k Me, here we go again with another Indigenous Player complaining about something..... :-( ..
In the world of feeelings the Adelaide players are kids, and their parents tried to toughen them up and they’re just privileged kids who are sooking to the police for their parents smacking them.. relax a bit Eddie
Were you even aware of what they went through? He was berated for being brought up by a single mother and tethered to a rope he had to cut himself out of whilst players yelled abuse at him.
Mate, that's a poor analogy. Betts wasn't a "privileged kid" at all, calling it parents trying to "toughen them up" is completely missing the point.
Cry me a river
coward
