Aliir\u00a0Aliir\u00a0is\u00a0among\u00a0seven Port Adelaide players\u00a0in\u00a0reach\u00a0of\u00a0a triple-figure milestone during the 2026 season, with the All-Australian defender\u00a0approaching\u00a0200 AFL games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Currently\u00a0on\u00a0178,\u00a0Aliir\u00a0would need to feature 22 more times to hit 200, while Zak Butters (139) and Willem Drew (130) could both\u00a0tick off\u00a0150.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Mitch Georgiades, Brandon\u00a0Zerk-Thatcher\u00a0and Jason Horne-Francis are all edging closer to the 100-game mark, while Lachie Jones could reach the\u00a0same\u00a0milestone, should\u00a0the Power play\u00a0deep into September.\u00a0<\/p>\n

A host of players are expected to notch 50 games, with ruck Jordon Sweet currently just three matches away.\u00a0<\/p>\n
If Georgiades can\u00a0record similar personal success to that of the last two seasons, he needs just 33 goals to hit 200 career majors, while Todd Marshall is 41 goals from the same milestone.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Sam Powell-Pepper is just 26 goals from 150,\u00a0but the heart-and-soul player is expected to miss the first few weeks as he\u00a0recovers from\u00a0his second ACL tear\u00a0in as many seasons.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Jack\u00a0Lukosius\u00a0and Darcy Byrne-Jones are close to 100 goals, with\u00a0Lukosius\u00a0just 13 goals away\u00a0from triple figures.\u00a0<\/p>\n
