Port Adelaide’s three newest recruits will make their club SANFL debut this Sunday, as the Magpies host West Adelaide at Alberton.
Harry Ramm, Ewan Mackinlay and Mani Liddy all arrived at the club last week through the AFL mid-season rookie draft.
Ramm is a welcome addition to a somewhat depleted backline, with talls Xavier Walsh and Jacob Moss both in rehab for long term injuries.
Mackinlay brings some firepower to the forward line, while damaging midfielder Liddy joins with 51 league games already to his name.
Following a month out with a fractured hand, Josh Lai comes back into the side, while Rory Atkins, Logan Evans and Ollie Lord have all been named after featuring at AFL level.
The Magpies are coming off the bye after an exciting two-point win over North Adelaide, while the Bloods sit on the bottom of the ladder, searching for the club’s second win.
Sunday’s game begins at 2:10pm at Alberton Oval and can be watched live on the SANFL Now app.
