Port Adelaide key forward and 221-game AFL veteran Charlie Dixon has announced his retirement from the competition after 14 seasons, in a move that signals further player turnover at the Power following its finals exit.
"I've been incredibly lucky to have had so long in a game that has given me a lot of great memories," he said. "Houston and Soldo are yet to nominate a club of choice and are committed to staying at Port Adelaide if a suitable trade is not reached," the club said.The Power also announced defender Trent McKenzie, who did not play at senior level during the 2024 season, had retired after 165 AFL games, also with both the Suns and Power.
He went onto become the club's leading goal kicker in three seasons, including 2017, in which he booted 49 majors, and 2020, when he was runner-up in the Coleman Medal.
