Jase Burgoyne is expected to continue his midfield role in 2027.
Port Adelaide senior coach Josh Carr confirmed Burgoyne’s role on Monday which will include inside midfield usage along with time spent on a wing for the 2027 season.
“Jase will definitely be, I guess, more inside than outside.”
“He will still have moments where he’ll go out into the wing, but we saw him step up in that last month as an inside mid, and he showed everyone what he’s capable of.”
“Now it’s for him to keep going and taking that next step.” Josh Carr
