WITH Jared Polec unlikely to front Collingwood this Saturday, there will be at least one spot vacant for Port Adelaide to make a change to the side that defeated Brisbane in Round 13.

However, with the Port losing to Sturt in the SANFL last week, there may well be a much smaller pool of candidates to choose from.

Brett Eddy and Jasper Pittard were Port's better players in that loss, but in victorious weeks prior, there have been several others pushing hard for selection.

They include players like Jesse Palmer, Joe Atley and Willem Drew.

Scans revealed Jared Polec had some minor hamstring awareness on Tuesday.

Port Adelaide's selection will take place at 5.50pm ACDT on Thursday 22 June.

Port Adelaide injury list as of Tuesday 20 June

Jared Polec – hamstring (1 week)
Aidyn Johnson – AC joint (1 week)
Angus Monfries – calf (1 week)
Karl Amon – knee (1-2 weeks)
