IN: C Dixon, F Evans, J Horne-Francis, T McKenzie, W Rioli 

OUT: D Byrne-Jones (concussion), J Burgoyne, T Jonas, O Lord, J Mead, D Williams (omitted) 

LAST WEEK’S SUB: R Burton 

PORT ADELAIDE will welcome multiple key players back into the side for a top-of-the-table clash against Collingwood on Saturday night. 

Trent McKenzie and Charlie Dixon both missed Round 18 with ankle sprains but the pair have recovered well and will provide welcome boosts to both ends of the ground. 

Back soreness kept Jason Horne-Francis out of the side last weekend, but the 20-year-old will be a valuable midfield inclusion for a huge home clash. 

Willie Rioli returns after being unavailable last week for family reasons, with the exciting forward to take the place of Darcy Byrne-Jones, who will miss the game under concussion protocols. 

Small forward Francis Evans has been added to the side after a run of electrifying SANFL form, rewarded for his 17 goals in 10 games.  

Tom Jonas, Jackson Mead, Dylan Williams, Ollie Lord and Jase Burgoyne have all been omitted from the side, with the latter three named as emergencies alongside Hugh Jackson. 

If Jackson was to be selected as the tactical substitute, it would be the young midfielder’s first AFL appearance. 

The sub will be selected from among the emergencies and announced one hour before the first bounce at 7:10pm ACST. 

General public tickets for Saturday's clash are officially exhausted, but fans without a ticket can still access the highly anticipated game by purchasing a Port Adelaide 3-game membership for just $100.
