Adelaide’s Tyson Edwards on Thursday announced his retirement, effective immediately.

Edwards, 33, has played 320 AFL games for Adelaide in 16 seasons with the Club. He played in the 1997 and 1998 premierships, finished Club Champion runner-up three times (2002, 2003, 2006) and finished third in 2004.

He was drafted from West Adelaide in the 1995 pre-season draft and made his Crows debut in round 11 of the same year.

Crows chief executive officer Steven Trigg said: “Tyson has been one of the all-time greats of the AFL. He will be remembered for an extraordinary impact on our Club, as a player of incredible consistency, durability and talent. We’ve been very privileged to have had Tyson at the Adelaide Football Club.

“He has been exemplary in everything he’s done, and as a 300-game player, and with two premierships - he’s not only one of the competition’s all-time best players; but a much loved person to many people in our Club. We wish him, Mandy and the boys all the very best for the future.”
