Wingard has a glute complaint which has forced him from Port Adelaide’s 25-man squad which travels to Launceston on Saturday.

The club is hopeful the complaint will sideline the first round draft pick for one week only.

Steven Salopek will come into the squad as an emergency outside of the Power 22.

Port Adelaide’s final team will be named at 4.00pm (CST) on Friday afternoon.
