Police have refused to comment on reports the drug ice might have been a factor in the killing. They have appealed for public help in finding a taxi driver who may have seen Cy Walsh, who was arrested in a nearby suburb.
The killing of Walsh has stunned Australia's sporting fraternity.
Adelaide's home match today against Geelong has been abandoned but chairman Rob Chapman says the club will travel to play West Coast in Perth next weekend and the Crows will probably appoint an interim senior coach on Sunday.
"A few of us gathered this morning to discuss that very issue," Chapman said yesterday. "It's impossible to go external so people within the club will step up. Everyone is going to have to take on big responsibilities."
The Crows hierarchy were bunkered at their West Lakes headquarters yesterday for further emergency meetings on how to deal with the tragedy.
"It's not something you can plan for," Crows chief executive Andrew Fagan said.
Players arrived from 8am, passing a makeshift shrine to Walsh at the door to the club where fans had laid hundreds of flowers, cards, football jumpers, scarves and beanies.
"We wanted to make sure everyone was OK and remind them of the support services that are available," Fagan said. "And have a couple of meetings and do a little bit of exercise as a way of working through the grief process and returning to a routine that they are used to."
The AFL are staging other matches this weekend and Fagan said the Crows were touched by Friday night's tribute to Walsh by Collingwood and Hawthorn after their MCG game, when players from both sides formed a giant huddle around the MCG centre circle in memory of Walsh.
"It has been overwhelming," he said.
