PORT ADELAIDE playmaker Nathan Krakeour will miss Sunday's clash against Sydney at the SCG after coach Mark Williams decided to give him a rest.
Williams said Krakeour, who has played 14 matches in a row - including pre-season clashes - needed a break.
"He's just a bit stiff and sore so we don't think it's the right thing for him to be playing this week," he said.
Steven Salopek has recovered from a dislocated shoulder he suffered a fortnight ago and is expected to replace Krakeour.
Meanwhile, Port forward Brett Ebert is in doubt with a sore back.
"You saw us testing Brett Ebert there so we are not sure what will happen, we'll take Matthew Westhoff as well," Williams said.
