Dante Visentini (38) and Trent Dumont (43) are among Port Adelaide's newest guernsey numbers for season 2022.

PORT ADELAIDE players have elected to retain the numbers they wore in 2021 but a host of new faces have learned which lockers they’ll have.

The arrival of Jeremy Finlayson from Greater Western Sydney in the trade period and free agent Sam Skinner, formerly of Brisbane via South Adelaide got the ball rolling before Port Adelaide picked up five other talented players via the National and Rookie drafts.

Finlayson wore the number 31 in 66 games with the Giants, a number that was available following the departure from Alberton of Trent Burgoyne.

However, the big forward has elected to take on the number 11 vacated by the retirement of Tom Rockliff.

Skinner wore number 21 at Brisbane and 16 at South Adelaide but with Aliir Aliir and Ollie Wines entrenched in those numbers respectively at Port Adelaide, he will take on number 31.

Former North Melbourne midfielder Trent Dumont, who wore the number 14 with the Kangaroos, will don the number 43, while first-round draftee Josh Sinn has been given the number 8, taking over from Hamish Hartlett who wore it with distinction for the last 12 seasons.

Jake Pasini will become the player with the highest number at the club as he remains in the number 48 and Tyson Goldsack hangs up his number 50 to take on a full time coaching role in 2022.

Of the other draftees, Jase Burgoyne will wear 36, Dante Visentini 38 and Hugh Jackson 39.

Number 35 remains preserved and 42 will not be used given it belongs to skipper Tom Jonas, leaving numbers 27, 40, 46, 47, 49 and 50 vacant for 2022.
