The retirement of former captain and current key forward Taylor Walker has posed the question: who makes the top 10 players of all-time to represent the "Pride of South Australia"?

Walker finishes his 19-year career with more than 300 games played and 700 goals kicked, to go with an All-Australian selection in 2023, four All-Australian squad seasons, being a seven-time leading goal-kicker and two-time AFLPA best captain.

Adelaide has a long history of stars littered throughout its 35-year history, which includes two premierships across 1997-98.

Players from those glory years feature heavily, but who from the modern day, including the Texan, will make Zero Hanger's top 10 Crows of all-time?

Two honourable mentions fall to former captain Simon Goodwin and superstar Patrick Dangerfield, who would have arguably become number one had he not moved to Geelong.

The third consecutive Crow on this list to be a mercurial player.

Betts could do things opposition players could only dream of and was a genuine star of the competition during his six years at Adelaide.

The small forward booted 310 goals from 132 games, won three All-Australian blazers as well as three (out of his four total) Goal of the Year awards at the club.
