IN: T Jonas, J Mead, S Hayes, J Sinn, B Teakle 

OUT: F Evans, H Jackson (AFL), T McCallum (appendix), D Aldridge, M Carter, J Lee, M Short, C Szust (omitted) 

BRYNN Teakle will return to the field for the first time since May, with the ruckman being named in the SANFL side for Sunday’s Sturt clash. 

Teakle has overcome early signs of stress in his foot to return sooner than expected, and will provide a welcome boost to the forward and ruck stocks ahead of a tough game. 

Defender Tom Jonas and midfielder Jackson Mead will both return to the Magpies after playing at AFL level last weekend, along with ruck Sam Hayes and winger Josh Sinn, who served as travelling emergencies. 

Captain Cam Sutcliffe has been named after a successful return to football last week following a calf injury, with the fan favourite set to play his third game for the season. 

Tom McCallum comes out of the side after having his appendix removed, while Dylan Aldridge, Miller Carter, Jackson Lee, Murphy Short and Cody Szust have all been omitted.  

Port Adelaide is hunting its fourth-straight win against second-placed Sturt, with the Blues being defeated just twice this season. 

Jase Burgoyne, Ollie Lord, Hugh Jackson and Dylan Williams have been named AFL emergencies, with those not required expected to play in the SANFL. 

Sunday’s game gets under way at Alberton Oval gets at 1:10pm, with gates opening at 11:40am. Tickets are available at the gate.
