THEY SAID IT: "Oh, they're not morons and the missed opportunity bit - clearly we're disappointed. We knew what was at stake." - Geelong coach Chris Scott after his side blew the chance to lock in a top-four spot, letting a 33-point lead slip in a shock loss to also-rans St Kilda.
STAR PERFORMER I: Port Adelaide midfield jet Zak Butters amassed a Showdown-record 42 disposals in steering his side to an important win over arch-rivals Adelaide. Butters also had a game-high 20 contested possessions, 10 clearances, five tackles and a goal in a performance that earned him his first Showdown Medal. Butters' disposal tally was one more than the previous record held jointly by former Port stars Peter Burgoyne and Tom Rockliff, as well as Crows great Mark Ricciuto.
