Port Adelaide has made three changes ahead of its Round 19 clash against Hawthorn in Launceston this Saturday afternoon. 

Connor Rozee and Jason Horne-Francis both come out of the side with hand and foot injuries respectively, while small forward Willie Rioli has been omitted. 

Dylan Williams has been named for his first AFL game of the year after kicking seven goals in the SANFL on Saturday, in a rare appearance in the forward line for the usual defender. 

Jackson Mead also returns after three weeks finding some form in the SANFL, while young defender Logan Evans will play his ninth game at AFL level for the season. 

Ollie Wines will mark two milestones this week – he and Travis Boak will play their 250th game as teammates, while Wines and Darcy Byrne-Jones will play their 200th game together. 

Williams and Mead have been named on the interchange alongside Josh Sinn, Will Lorenz and Hugh Jackson, with one of these five players to be named as the tactical substitute an hour before the bounce.    

The last time the Power played the Hawks was in Gather Round (Round 5) at Adelaide Oval, with Port Adelaide securing a 30-point win.  

Saturday’s game will begin at 12:50pm Adelaide time, and the match will be broadcast live on Channel 7, Fox Footy and Kayo.
