Qualifying Final

PORT
Port Adelaide has been strengthened by the inclusion of three key players in each sector of the ground for its Qualifying Final against Adelaide on Saturday night.
Tall forward Todd Marshall, midfielder Willem Drew and long-kicking defender Trent McKenzie all return after lining up in the Power’s final game against Fremantle.
They have been joined in the Magpies’ 23-man squad by SANFL-contracted trio Sam Davidson, Matt Appleton and Jack Elwsworthy.
Davidson will line-up at half-forward while the other pair have been named on the five-man extended interchange bench.
Pacy forward Aidyn Johnson couldn’t be considered due to a one-match suspension for striking from the SANFL Match Review Panel while Steven Motlop, Dougal Howard and Zak Butters aren’t qualified for the SANFL major round.

Experienced defender Andy Otten will be an important inclusion to potentially stand Port dangerman Billy Frampton.
Forward Ben Davis accepted a two-match ban for engaging in rough conduct from the SANFL Match review Panel while Jordan Butts couldn’t be considered due to concussion.
