ADELAIDE wants answers from the AFL's official telecasters - both Fox Sports and Channel 7 - on why footage of Crows utility Ricky Henderson revealing his genitals in the Gabba changerooms was put to air on Saturday night and turned into a comedy skit.
This also allowed thousands on social media to bombard Henderson on Twitter, increasing his embarrassment.
"Ricky was really stressed (on Saturday night)," said Adelaide football chief Phil Harper.
"He should have been joining his team-mates celebrating a good win against the Lions; instead he was locked away in his room.
"We are quite angry that people chose to put the original footage in other forums, particularly social media.''
Henderson was captured on camera walking into the Adelaide rooms at half-time and opening his shorts out of concern for a groin injury.
It is unlikely Henderson will follow rugby league player Andrew Ettingshausen in legal action. Ettingshausen was awarded $350,000 in damages - reduced to $100,000 on appeal - from a magazine that published a photograph of "ET" in the showers during the 1990 Kangaroos tour of Great Britain.
Ettingshausen had the expectation of privacy in the team showers. But Henderson should have been aware of the cameras that have been placed in AFL team changerooms for more than 10 seasons.
"We thought everything filmed in the changerooms was shown on delay and the telecaster had the opportunity to drop images such as those of Henderson," Harper said.
"Ricky's quite distressed by it all. He plays footy - he is not worrying about cameras when he comes into the changerooms."
Beyond Fox Sport's error, Adelaide has taken exception to how Henderson was lampooned on Seven's Saturday night football coverage hosted by former VFL player Brian Taylor.
AFL Players' Association executive Ian Prendergast says his group will be questioning the telecasters.
"We'll follow up to find out why (the images were put to air)," said Prendergast.
"Cameras are in place in the changerooms on the basis player privacy will be respected."
