Certainly doesn't seem Port are going to bottom out, I guess if Butters is genuinely undecided you need to find a way to be competitive in '26.

“List clogger haven”: Cornes on Port's links to Stephenson

Kane Cornes didn’t like seeing a Code Sports report that Port Adelaide is looking at former North Melbourne and Collingwood forward Jaidyn Stephenson for their 2026 list.

Stephenson retired from AFL football at the end of 2024 with a year remaining on his Kangaroos deal, with the former Rising Star and 122-gamer falling out of love with the game.

While Stephenson seemed happy with his decision early in 2025, he’s reportedly regained the hunger to play at the top level following a season with Ferntree Gully in Division 3 of the Eastern Football League.

According to the report, Port Adelaide is considering Stephenson for a train-on spot across the pre-season.

Cornes hopes that the club doesn’t look in the 26-year-old’s direction with the Power already adding three experienced options who aren’t stars this off-season in Will Brodie, Corey Durdin and Jacob Wehr.

“From a sporting perspective on the weekend, what was the best thing that you saw? For me, it was that World Series Game 7,” Cornes said on SEN Breakfast.

“The worst, though, was the story I read about Port Adelaide considering Jaidyn Stephenson.

“Now, hopefully, it's just for a train-on spot and they’re not seriously considering him.

“It’s a list clogger haven at Port Adelaide at the moment.

“There’s (Corey) Durdin, we’ve got Will Brodie, we’ve got Jacob Wehr, and I’m just not sure what’s happening there.

“That was the worst thing I saw.”

It’s believed that Stephenson has approached several AFL clubs in recent weeks in a bid to resume an AFL career, including the Power and Blues.

Haha probably the only time I’ve ever agreed with him


He is far more critical of Port now Chad has gone.


FYI I would rather be called a **** than Kornes

Has the foot skills and footy IQ to be a good CHB but sadly he’s only a concussion or two away from retirement

Not sure that I'd like him in defence when he can go weeks without laying a tackle.

Channel 9

“ Jason Horne-Francis has undergone scans on his left foot...the same foot he had surgery back in July.

He tells me he "went to take off and heard a pop in my foot" but says it "didn't feel like the plate or bone."

He left training because of discomfort in his foot and will now have the plate in his foot removed.

https://www.portadelaidefc.com.au/news/ ... OIbVX_7pmw
Port Adelaide midfielder Jason Horne-Francis will undergo a planned procedure to have the plate in his foot removed.

The 22-year-old completed a good block of running and conditioning during the off-season and the fracture in his foot has now healed, following an injury he sustained in Round 18.

The plate removal was initially slated for later in the year, but has been brought forward to alleviate ongoing irritation and to allow him to train without discomfort.

Horne-Francis is expected to be back in training prior to the Christmas break.
