PORT ADELAIDE veteran could play against St Kilda at Telstra Dome on Sunday despite not being named in the club's initial squad of 27 players.
Burgoyne was handed a club-imposed one-match ban for presenting himself in an unfit manner for training approximately a month ago.
The 30-year-old was to be left out for another week after performing below expectations for the Port Adelaide Magpies in the SANFL last weekend.
But Port Adelaide assistant coach Adam Kingsley said Burgoyne was a chance to be recalled earlier than expected.
"Peter is certainly a chance to play, we'll assess a couple of players after today and he's a certainly a chance to come back in," Kingsley said.
"To be honest there are a couple of issues there and we may change that squad if we at all can. That's the way it goes and if the right player goes out, and we don't have coverage, then we'll change it."
Kingsley refused to elaborate on what the club's 'issues' were.
