The Gold Coast SUNS have made four changes to its side to play Port Adelaide this Saturday.

Jack Hutchins, Jackson Allen, Josh Hall and Andrew Boston all return for the Round 21 game at AAMI Stadium. 

As reported this week on goldcoastfc.com.au Nathan Bock, Alex Sexton and Sam Day have been ruled out with injury, while Campbell Brown will miss four matches with a suspension.

But after stand-out performances in the NEAFL’s 145-point victory against Labrador last weekend, GC SUNS General Manager of Football Operations Marcus Ashcroft said Hutchins, Allen, Josh Hall and Boston had earned their spot in the senior team.

“Unfortunately Alex and Sam suffered injuries and Nathan has been ruled out of the side for this weekend match,” Ashcroft said.

“But after putting their hand up for senior selection in the NEAFL last week, Jack, Josh, Jackson and Andrew will be ready to return this week. 

Having emerged as the SUNS go-to-tagger in recent weeks, Danny Stanley appears the most likely opponent for Travis Boak after the Power skipper finished with 30 disposals against Geelong at Simonds Stadium.
