Rodan is expected to make his AFL comeback against Geelong at Skilled Stadium on Sunday, just 16 weeks after having successful LARS surgery on his knee.
The 26-year-old has played two games for SANFL club Norwood and Power vice-captain Jacob Surjan said the players couldn't wait to get the speedy onballer back into the team.
"It would be huge for the playing group if D-Rod played this week. We went and watched him play his first game for Norwood and I think all the boys are really excited," Surjan said on Wednesday.
"He brings a lot of energy - he's that sort of guy. We're really looking forward to having him out there; he's a very important player for us and a guy that's definitely going to help our midfield."
Brogan, 31, pulled out of last weekend's clash with the Brisbane Lions because of lingering shoulder soreness.
The experienced big man completed Wednesday's light training session and is expected to take his place in the side against the Cats, with untried ruckman Matthew Lobbe to be named an emergency.
Classy onballer Hamish Hartlett could earn a recall after two weeks in the SANFL reserves and Robbie Gray will also be considered if he gets through training on Thursday.
Geelong is also poised to make wholesale changes, with premiership players Matthew Scarlett, Darren Milburn, Brad Ottens, Cam Mooney and Max Rooke all in contention.
Port Adelaide was the last team to upset Geelong at Skilled Stadium, back in round 21, 2007, and Surjan said his side would draw on the result of that game for motivation this week.
"It's the toughest gig in football going down to Skilled Stadium and playing Geelong," he said.
"We were the last team to beat them down there in '07 and it's a great challenge for us to go down there and do that again. That win gives us confidence that we can go down there and win again."
Port Adelaide defeated North Melbourne and West Coast, non-finalists from last season, in the opening two rounds but fell short against top-four fancies the Lions last weekend.
Surjan said the Power were keen to make amends for a disappointing performance against the Lions, which saw his side lay just 16 tackles in the first half.
"I wouldn't say we were found out last week. Brisbane is definitely a tough opposition. We were really disappointed that our tackling pressure wasn't up to standard. We've set our bar and we know what we have to bring as a playing group week in and week out. Hopefully, we're not going to serve that up for the rest of the year."
