Taylor Walker led the way in Adelaide’s forward line this season, booting a club-high 43 goals in 2019.

The 29-year-old kicked three or more goals on eight occasions, culminating in a season-best five majors against the Western Bulldogs in Round 23.

In Adelaide's come-back win over Melbourne in Round 11, he recorded his 400th goal.

Walker’s also ranked equal-second of all key forwards in the League for inside-50s (66), sixth for score involvements (135) and sixth for goal assists (15).

He took the most contested marks of any Crow with 31 and the most marks inside-50 with 42.

After proposing to long-term girlfriend Ellie on Christmas Eve of 2018, the couple tied the knot in a surprise wedding just weeks before the start of the 2019 AFL season.

In September, after five years as skipper, Walker decided to step down from his role as co-captain as the Crows.

A day later, he announced Ellie was pregnant, with the pair expecting in November.
