PORT Adelaide recruit Jack Hombsch says the playing group is excited about leaving for its European training camp on Saturday.
Having been traded from Greater Western Sydney on Tuesday, Hombsch is set to join 28 other Power players training at the Australian Institute of Sport's base in Milan before tackling the Western Bulldogs in an exhibition match at The Oval on November 3.
''Europe will be very exciting,'' said Hombsch, who arrived at Alberton with the Giants' Northern Territory zone selection Jake Neade in exchange for pick No.29.
''It will be a great way to bond with my new team-mates while getting some training in world class facilities.
''It will be a good way to bring us closer, it's a great way to get to know everyone. Hopefully we'll have a look at our game plan and what the coaches want us to do for next season.''
The 10-day trip will also include a visit to the Lords Cricket Ground in London before watching Liverpool clash with Newcastle in an English Premier League soccer match.
Hombsch is this afternoon joining Port's first, second and third year players for the opening training session for the pre-season at Alberton Oval.
Essendon recruit Angus Monfries is also alongside Hombsch for his first appearance in Port colours.
