THREE former Power players will play in Tuesday night's annual EJ Whitten Legends game at Etihad Stadium.

The 20th installation of the annual match is run by the EJ Whitten Foundation, named for the famous Footscray and Victoria player, which raises awareness around prostate cancer and men's health.

Peter Burgoyne, Nathan Eagleton and David Rodan will play in the game. 

Burgoyne played over 200 games for Port Adelaide after becoming a foundation player of the club when it entered the AFL in 1997, playing in both an AFL and SANFL flag. 

Eagleton was also a foundation player for the club in the AFL and was prominent for the Power in its early years before being traded to the Western Bulldogs at the end of 1999. 

Rodan was a popular player for the Power between 2007 and 2012 after joining the club from Richmond; later finishing his AFL career at Melbourne.
