ABOUT 3000 people have flocked to an Adelaide training session as the emotional aftermath to the death of coach Phil Walsh continues.

The Crows staged their main training session at their West Lakes headquarters on Wednesday with players overwhelmed by the show of support.

"Everything is still so raw," midfielder Scott Thompson told reporters.

"There are probably a lot of questions that everyone has, but you can only go day-by-day."

Thompson is the first Adelaide player to speak publicly since Walsh was allegedly stabbed to death by his 26-year-old son last Friday.

And he reckons coach Walsh would have a simple order for his troops: get on with it.

"He had a saying that everyone used to listen to: 'just get the job done'," Thompson said.

"You look back since the events and the amount of love and support that we have seen from the whole football community ... has been overwhelming."

Walsh was allegedly murdered by his 26-year-old son last Friday.

Thompson said the players were still dealing with their grief in different ways but were resolved to return to action against West Coast on Saturday.

"The feel I have at the moment is the group is in the best possible place," Thompson said.

"We have had a couple of training runs this week and the fact we have been around each other a fair bit had been really important.

"I'm looking forward to getting back out there again and sticking tight with the team.

Adelaide's scheduled home game against Geelong last Sunday was abandoned after the death of Walsh, a 55-year-old in his first season as Crows coach.

Scott Camporeale has stepped up from midfield coach to take on the interim senior coaching role and he has been joined by West Coast’s 2006 premiership coach John Worsfold as coaching director. 

Worsfold insisted his was purely an advisory role for Camporeale and his assistants and that he wouldn’t help coach the team in a hands-on manner. 

Thompson said Camporeale was capable of moving the club forward by following Walsh’s plan. 

"We’re clear with our direction now and it’s great – in the worst of circumstances – to have Scott Camporeale in charge, and he’ll continue to drive what Phil was driving," he said. 

"To have John Worsfold on board as well … we’re thankful for him giving up his time and joining the club in the second half of the season.'
