Brisbane youngster Sam Skinner has been ruled out of Saturday night's clash with Port Adelaide.

Skinner was named to make his debut for the club when teams were announced on Thursday evening, however, the 19-year-old unfortunately hyper-extended his knee at training yesterday and has subsequently been ruled out of the match.

The 197cm tall is not stranger to heartbreak, with a knee injury ending his season last year during the Under-18 Championships.

Skinner was selected with pick No.47 in last year's National Draft.
