And the captaincy of the Crows appears to be off the table as a lure to keep the 24-year-old at the club.

Dangerfield, in Perth to prepare for Saturday night's international rules clash with Ireland at Patersons Stadium, gave a strong endorsement for the leadership qualities of current Adelaide skipper Nathan van Berlo.

Dangerfield is out of contract at the end of the 2015 season and as a free agent, he is likely to attract some strong offers from many rival clubs.

He says he won't be rushed into making a decision, but recent history has taught us that this could easily mean that he has already made up his mind to leave Adelaide Oval.

Tuesday's announcement that Crows power forward Taylor Walker had committed to an extra three years at the club has also had little effect on Dangerfield.

"It is great to see that Taylor has signed on, but as I have said before, there is no time limit with that," he said.

"My focus at the moment is solely on preparing for this international series and then Adelaide's season next year."

Dangerfield's public support for van Berlo also means that it is unlikely that there will be change of leadership at the Crows next season.

There had been mounting speculation that the Crows would offer Dangerfield the captaincy in a bid to entice his signature on a contract extension.

"I don't think it's (the captaincy) up for grabs," Dangerfield said. "Those within the football club understand the value that Nathan has; he's a terrific leader and continues to be and I think he will be next season."

"I have been really strong on the fact that Nathan has been a terrific leader and continues to be with our football club.

"We have a great group of young leaders at the club. But Nathan's standing within our team is certainly unquestioned within our four walls."
