Adelaide captain Taylor Walker isn't blaming his foot injury for his AFL form slump.
Walker says while he's been unable to train fully recently because of the injury, it's not the reason for his below-average output.
"I set high standards on myself, obviously I'm not playing to that standard at the moment," Walker told reporters on Monday.
The key forward, who has kicked just 14 goals this season and is averaging about 12 disposals a game, refused to detail the exact nature of his foot injury.
"I just had a sore foot over the last few weeks, so we're on top of that," he said.
But Walker was confident an increase in his training loads would lift his form.
"I obviously had a bit of a sore foot so I couldn't consistently train but I'm back out there and enjoying being back out there," he said.
"(My) form is on the way up.
"I know it's not far around the corner.
"I think the beauty of playing AFL, you control you're own form and the pathway that you want to go. So I have been working hard, as much as I can behind the scenes, and I'll continue to do that."
The Crows have four wins and four losses in a season Walker described as inconsistent.
"It's just a reflection of our football at the moment," he said of the win-loss count.
"We have been playing some inconsistent footy so we're crystal clear where we're at.
"We have been able to do. It's just doing it for longer."
