Power veteran Justin Westhoff earns late reprieve with Trent McKenzie injured in warm-up

Power veteran Justin Westhoff earns late reprieve with Trent McKenzie injured in warm-up  AFL

VETERAN Port Adelaide utility Justin Westhoff has scored a reprieve after being dropped on Thursday night. 

FOLLOW IT LIVE Power v Saints

Westhoff is a late inclusion for the Power's Adelaide Oval return against St Kilda on Saturday, replacing Trent McKenzie who hurt himself in the warm-up and is dealing with back spasms.

The Saints will play as selected. 

Port Adelaide coach Ken Hinkley said on Friday that Westhoff's form as a forward-ruckman hadn't been good enough but he may now be thrust into defence. 

The first-placed Power have won eight straight games against St Kilda but Brett Ratten's side broke its Adelaide Oval hoodoo on Monday night against the Crows.
