Mitch McCarron didn’t hold back.
The Adelaide 36ers skipper delivered an all-time, expletive-laden spray to his teammates, accusing them of “snitching” in a rant caught by 10 News Adelaide cameras during a training session after a tumultuous week for the club.
The 36ers sacked coach CJ Bruton amid the team’s grim 4-9 record this season to occupy second-last spot on the NBL season, with Scott Ninnis to take over as interim coach.

In hopes of salvaging their disappointing season to date and having better unification, McCarron urged his teammates to keep things “in house” in a fierce bake.

“Shut the f*** up, stop f***ing bitching!,” the 31-year old exclaims in the centre of Adelaide players and staff on the training court in the video.
“This is why we’re in this f***ing position, everyone wants to f***ing snitch on each other.
“No f***ing consolidarity, no one can f***ing keep it in house, everyone wants to f***ing snitch on every other person and throw every other f***ing person under the bus.
“We’re not going to f***ing do it! Train hard, shut the f*** up, get stops, win games — end of story!”
The staff and players then huddle in together as a group at the end of the clip.
McCarron has spent the last three seasons at the 36ers after previous stints at Melbourne United and Cairns Taipans.
