Good news. Well done Tex
He's playing good football and we certainly need him.
700 in sight.
There's every chance he plays on into 2025 and does get there.
Get an All Australian jumper or two and his career starts to look stack up.

If he plays on in 2025 and is still getting games he's a chance to reach 300 games. Would love to see him play 301 just to pass Kane Cornes

Walker probably ends up with the most Brownlow votes of any Adelaide player again this year. It'll be close between he and Dawson, but Walker will end up with more.
Incredible to think Adelaide basically tried to engineer the end of his career between 2018-2020

And that closes the book on contracts for over 30 players. All done. No one else to get a contract. Great job everyone. 
Then join the fire brigade and actually put a fire out.If he plays on in 2025 and is still getting games he's a chance to reach 300 games. Would love to see him play 301 just to pass Kane Cornes

2009/10 - early years
2011 - Possibly Adelaide's best and most effective forward in a weak team
2012 - Probably Adelaide's best and most effective forward in a strong forward line
2013 - Definitely Adelaide's best and most effective forward until serious injury
2014 - Probably Adelaide's best and most effective forward after returning from injury
2015 - Probably Adelaide's best and most effective forward in a strong forward line
2016 - Probably Adelaide's best and most effective forward in a strong forward line of unprecedented strength
2017 - Probably Adelaide's best and most effective forward in a strong forward line of unprecedented strength
2018 - Not Adelaide's best and most effective forward. Coincidentally the year he was subject to a campaign of systematic undermining and harrassment by the club at the behest of insane cult leaders who had undue influence over important positions in AFC hierarchy
2019 - Definitely Adelaide's best and most effective forward
2020 - Definitely Adelaide's best and most effective forward despite injury and lowered output due to playing in one of the worst teams of all time.
2021 - Definitely Adelaide's best and most effective forward
2022 - Definitely Adelaide's best and most effective forward
2023 - Definitely Adelaide's best and most effective forward
Without the club induced blips in 2018 and 2020 he is the model of consistency (on field).
The club's greatest forward, many knee jerked and wanted him on the scrap heap a few years ago. I still think he plays for another 2 years.
Interesting take. Dawson is 6th fave at 21-1. Laird 150-1. Walker in the unquoted market meaning odds have blown out past 500-1
Hard to argue with that analysis. Will he go down as our greatest ever forward? Certainly has the longevity and records now but not the extraordinary highlights and averages from Godra (in a different era of footy)
I was really hoping Fog this year would hit where Tex was in his 5/6th year. Dominating big finals. Remember the Footy Park semi vs Freo with Bruces call 'Tex has been THE difference' upon kicking the sealer at the northern end, and then backed it up in the Prelim vs Horks at The G that we nearly snuck. I still believe and hope next year Fog overtakes Tex as our most important forward. We need him to
sublimely skilled like you RARELY see from a KPP - general field kicking, BOOMING set shot distance, the left foot, exquisite handball skills, decision making and overall footy nous

If you told me three years ago that we’d be extending Tex into 2024, I’d have been inconsolable with the bad decisions being made by the club.
But this is awesome. Love the big man and what he’s doing.

Watching him play is one of the pleasures of going to the football
Yes, it's probably not the healthiest thing that we still rely on him so much but how many players of his class will you ever get to see in your lifetime? Drink it in, every last sublime touch
