Port Adelaide has swung a late change to bring Karl Amon into their starting 22.
The Power clash with West Coast at 4.35pm AEST at Adelaide Oval in search of their first win, and Ken Hinkley has recalled Amon despite making the surprise call to drop him during the week.

Port Adelaide defensive coach Chad Cornes shed some light on Amon’s omission on Friday.
“Karl has been a little bit off from what we saw last year. It’s not a one or two-week thing, Karl hasn’t really shown the form over the five games and even in the pre-season,” he told SEN Breakfast.
“Karl for his own good needed a bit of a jolt. He’s a great guy, all the boys love him, so we’re expecting him to respond to this little jolt.”
The late change is due to Miles Bergman withdrawing through illness. Lachie Jones is the medical sub for the Power, while West Coast has made no late changes.
Zac Langdon is the medical sub for the Eagles.
