ADELAIDE skipper Taylor Walker is in a moon boot and won't play in either AFLX or the JLT Community Series after straining a foot tendon.

The Crows say the plantar fascia injury will restrict Walker's training over the next fortnight, but he is expected to make a full recovery in five to six weeks.

Adelaide, the 2017 runner-up, is six weeks away from its round one match against Essendon on March 23.

Crows general manager of high performance, Matt Hass, told the club's website, "Taylor had some soreness in his foot during training last week and after further assessment the strain was revealed," Hass said.

"Fortunately, the injury doesn't require surgery and he will make a full recovery after a period of rest.

"He will not take part in AFLX or the JLT Community Series, but is focused on being available for round one."

The plantar fascia is the flat band of tissue that connects the heel bone to the toes and supports the arch of the foot.
