Three players, first-round draft pick Phil Davis, big man Brad Moran and rookie Ricky Henderson, finished the session icing sore limbs on the sidelines after suffering heavy knocks during the three-hour session.
Davis, who has just resumed full competitive training after recovering from a shoulder reconstruction, cut his shin on a goalpost after losing a one-on-one contest with forward Taylor Walker.
Henderson suffered a corked thigh and Moran pulled up sore from a tackling drill.
None are considered in any doubt for Adelaide's NAB Cup opener against Geelong on Saturday, February 21.
Midfielder Bernie Vince said the players were keen to make amends for the sub-par performance against the All-Stars.
"We knew the All-Stars would be quick, but we probably didn't plan on us going down in the contested ball; we thought we could beat them in that area and that was probably the most disappointing thing," Vince said after training.
"There are a few things we need to work on before we take on Geelong, but we'll sit down and work on those, like we did at training today.
"It was disappointing not to win in Darwin, but we're going to make sure we turn that around by round one."
Crowd favourite Trent Hentschel (quad) missed out on a happy homecoming in Darwin, but joined his teammates for training on Thursday and could make his long-awaited return against the Cats next week.
"It's been a long road for Trent and he's really excited to get back," Vince said.
"He got through the pre-season unscathed apart from a little injury recently and he's looking really good. Hopefully he can come up by next week and it will give everyone a lift. Everyone is pretty pumped to see him out there."
But before taking on Geelong, the Crows must prepare for another all-important hit-out … the Twenty20 cricket game against Port Adelaide on Tuesday night.
'SA's Footy Bushfire Bash for Cash' will be held at AAMI Stadium, with all proceeds going to the Victorian Bushfire Appeal.
Vince will head a star-studded Crows 11, which could also include skipper Simon Goodwin, former star junior wicketkeeper James Moss, Chris Knights and ex-full forward Tony Modra.
Vince, who was playing grade cricket on the day he was drafted by Adelaide, said he'd had a few hits to prepare for the fundraiser.
"It's going to be a big occasion on Tuesday night. It's tragic what's happened over in Victoria and we're just happy to do anything we can to help out," he said.
"I'm sure there will be a fair bit of sledging and I'm looking forward to it. It won't be quite as serious as the Showdowns, but it's for a good cause and hopefully everyone enjoys it and we get a good crowd there.
"I'm sure we'll have a bit of fun along the way as well as trying to knock a few of the Port boys' heads off because the result will definitely matter."
Port Adelaide coach Mark Williams was an interested onlooker at training on Max Basheer Reserve and Vince suggested he was there scouting ahead of the Twenty20 clash.
"Choco might've come down to check out our cricket skills," he said with a laugh.
"I don't know what he was looking at, probably some of our game movements to see if he could pick up on anything.
"He's welcome to come down whenever he likes."
