On Tuesday, AFL chief executive Andrew Demetriou allayed fears over the Power's future, following revelations the club's licence holder the SANFL - which borrowed $4 million to underwrite the club last year - had reached its borrowing limits.
In a statement, Demetriou said the League was "committed to the long-term future" of the Power, and added that it would continue to work closely with the club and the SANFL to develop a framework to ensure the club's survival, as it continues to suffer from dwindling attendances and revenue at AAMI Stadium.
The move to Adelaide Oval is expected to generate up to an additional $3.5 million each year for both Port Adelaide and Adelaide through projected increases in membership, attendances and corporate support.
Details regarding the AFL's financial commitment to the Power are expected to be known within a fortnight.
The team was briefed on the developments but Chaplin said the club's financial dealings were none of the player's concern.
"I didn't really take much notice yesterday because I was on the golf course. It doesn't affect the players in any way," Chaplin said on Wednesday.
"I've got full faith in the hierarchy of the club, the AFL and SANFL to sort if out in due course. From a player's perspective, we haven't even spoken about it."
The perceived instability surrounding Port Adelaide's finances has prompted concerns out-of-contract players, including sought-after defenders Jackson Trengove and Alipate Carlile, might consider futures at rival clubs.
Earlier this year, Port Adelaide players combined to contribute $55,000 towards the club's debt reduction campaign.
Chaplin encouraged any players contemplating leaving to stick around and "ride out" the tough times.
"If a player is leaving because he thinks he club is in dire straits, it's a little bit disappointing," he said.
"Surely, you want to ride it out and go through the hard times because out the other end, it's going to be good in the glory times.
"You play for the club because you love playing for the club, want to be around the boys and play with this group of guys. Sure, you look at the situation the club is in [when you negotiate a new contract], but you've got to look at where the playing list is at as well.
"We think, as a group, that we're heading in the right direction. We've got an exciting list and we believe in what we're doing and what the coaches are putting forward."
It's been reported the AFL's commitment to supporting Port Adelaide over the next 2-3 years will enable the club to increase its football department spend.
Last year, the Power ranked last in the competition in football department expenditure, spending $4 million less than premier Collingwood.
"We need to look at doing the same sort of thing to make this a powerful club."
