PORT ADELAIDE will face five new Swans in Saturday’s NAB Challenge match in Blacktown.
New Sydney recruits Michael Talia and Callum Sinclair, and draftees Jordan Dawson, Tyrone Leonardis and Callum Mills will make their debut in the squad.
Local favourite Lance Franklin has been named along with leadership group members Heath Grundy, Dan Hannebery and Dane Rampe.
Saturday’s match will provide the first opportunity for several Sydney players who are yet to debut to secure a spot in the senior team, including Aliir Aliir, George Hewett, Jack Hiscox, Harrison Marsh, and rookie Tom Papley.
Port Adelaide named an inexperienced squad to make the trip to the harbour city, with five new players positioned to make their first appearance for the club.
