Port Adelaide has wasted little time making change in the post Ken Hinkley era, with Ryan Burton and Jeremy Finlayson among five players delisted by the Power.

With new coach Josh Carr officially taking the reins after Hinkley's departure, Burton and Finlayson have been informed they will not be offered new deals, while Dylan Williams, Lachie Charleson and Hugh Jackson have also been let go.
