Port Adelaide are contemplating adding further depth to their list after meeting with former Brisbane Lions' utility Michael Close.

The 23-year-old was a surprise delisting after four seasons at the Lions, which used selection 32 to pick him in the 2012 national draft.

Close played 27 games with the Lions but his 2015 season was wiped out with a knee injury that required a reconstruction.

He returned in 2017 to play forward in both the NEAFL and AFL and was a good contributor alongside Eric Hipwood and Josh Walker, providing a strong body inside the Lions' forward 50.
