Adelaide veteran Taylor Walker will pull on a Crows jumper for an 18th season after penning a one-year extension at West Lakes.
The club's all-time leading goalkicker, Walker will add to his 278 games with the Crows next year after extending his contract.
The new deal places Walker in reaching distance of the 300-game milestone, potentially becoming just the fifth Adelaide player to do so.
โBeing a one-club player means a lot to me and I still feel I have plenty to contribute to the team,โ he said in a club statement.
โI love working with our exciting young forward line and get a lot of satisfaction out of seeing them develop their own games.
โAs a team, we didn't get the results we wanted this year, but that only makes me more determined to continue working hard to get our Club back to where it belongs.โ
Walker has kicked 641 goals across his AFL career with the Crows, 76 of which came in a career-best season last year.
The veteran sharpshooter played 18 games in 2024 for a return of 29 goals and 16 assists.
โYou can't measure what Tex brings on and off the field for our football club,โ Adelaide list manager Justin Reid said.
โThe fact that his playing career is continuing well into his 30s speaks to his professionalism and the way he approaches his training and preparation.
โHe drives high standards and makes his teammates better and we're very pleased that will continue for another season.โ
Walker joined the Crows via the 2007 AFL Draft out of Broken Hill and has won the club's season goalkicking award in seven separate seasons to go with a maiden All-Australian selection last year.
The 34-year-old was also captain of the club from 2015-2019.
