Port Adelaide are firming as a likely destination for Jack Watts after the Melbourne forward met with Port in Adelaide on Wednesday.

The former No.1 draft pick, 26, has two years remaining on his contract with the Demons but it's understood there is an openness from Melbourne to facilitate a trade, after another frustrating year from Watts in which he played 16 games but found himself on the outer at either end of the season. His career tally with Melbourne stands at 153 games.

Watts was spotted by television cameras at Adelaide Airport on Wednesday night.

Port, who have also been firmly in the mix to land free agents Tom Rockliff (Brisbane Lions) and Steven Motlop (Geelong), are understood to have a list management meeting on Thursday, with greater clarity on their impending trade activity likely to follow.
