Port Adelaide’s Dan Houston will miss this Sunday’s clash against Gold Coast in China.

The defender wasn’t part of the 25-man extended squad who departed for Shanghai ahead of the historic round eight match. 

Houston has played all seven games this season at half-back, but has been left out of the travelling party after a poor couple of weeks.

In the mix to replace Houston are Brendon Ah Chee, Aidyn Johnson, Karl Amon and Dougal Howard, who come into the extended squad.

Gold Coast and Port Adelaide will meet at Jiangwin Sports Centre in Shanghai, China at 3.15pm (AEST) on Sunday.
