Port Adelaide will welcome AFL experience and an academy young gun to the side this weekend, as it hosts traditional rivals Norwood at Alberton.
Just seven points split the sides last time they faced off, with the Magpies heading into Sunday off the back of a stunning 24-point win over Woodville-West Torrens.
Jackson Mead, Jacob Wehr and Brandon Zerk-Thatcher return from AFL duties, while Tom Cochrane’s younger brother Dougie is set to make his Port Adelaide debut.
Former captain Nick Moore has also been named after overcoming a groin injury, as has Dylan Whimpress.
Sunday’s game is Round 16’s SANFL Super Match, featuring giveaways, games and activations around the grounds, and free face painting.
The Magpies will take on Norwood at Alberton Oval from 1:10pm, with tickets available at the gate and the membership counter.
