Adelaide the best side in 2017 home and away.. Fell short on Grand Final Day.A lot of changes happend over the summer.However it all appears to be going pear shaped in 2018.One of the biggest injury lists with key players going down.
The latest to come out is Mitch McGovern finding out the size of Bryce Gibbs contract .Freo offered McGovern the same money as Gibbs. Lever and Cameron already left the club for similar reasons.Adelaide pay on a a scale for time spent at the club.Slone and Laird are also mentioned in moves to Melbourne clubs.
And the most bizarre of all.All players where told they where going to the Gold Coast for a weekend.Packing there bathers expecting some sand + surf.Adelaide hired a metal toughness expert. Who locked the players in dark rooms with no windows for 24 hours. Playing the Richmond theme song constantly for that 24 hours. Players Eddie Betts and Josh Jenkins have stated that they are still scared from that bizarre 24 hours. And are contemplating breaking there lucrative contracts and leaving the building. Crazy stuff.. Coaches like Toddy and Sheedy liked to think outside the box.But never came up with something like this.
