Fantasy Impact

Rory Atkins will add experience and depth to the Port Adelaide squad.

He has the ability to play multiple roles including half-back and wing.

Atkins could push for a start in the Port Adelaide team over pre-season, it will be worth paying attention to the thoughts from senior coach Ken Hinkley on his prospects.

One thing to keep front of mind at Port Adelaide is the adjustments required to replace Dan Houston. Kane Farrell could certainly be the main distributor in defence, other adjustments are likely for Port Adelaide in 2025.
