The victory over Port Adelaide yielded plenty of facts and figures ...
* Chris Mayne continued his resurgence by racking up a career-high 27 disposals in the win over the Power. His previous best was 25 against Geelong back in round eight. Mayne never tallied more than 23 disposals in his 172 games with Fremantle.
* Steele Sidebottom finished the game with 33 disposals, which took his tally for the year to 619, placing him fourth on the table for most disposals in the AFL this season. Hawthorn's Tom Mitchell leads the way with a whopping 762. Scott Pendlebury (554) is the second-best Collingwood player, followed by Tom Phillips (548), Jack Crisp (491) and Taylor Adams (477).

* Pies skipper Scott Pendlebury laid seven tackles against Port, taking his total for the year to 119. Pendlebury is Collingwood's leading tackler this season. Brodie Grundy has laid the second-most tackles of all Pies players (112). Grundy laid nine tackles in Saturday's win.
* Tom Phillips is best known as a run-all-day midfielder, and he can rack up plenty of marks as well as kicks and handballs. Phillips took only three marks on Saturday, but he is now Collingwood's leading mark-taker in 2018, hauling in 127 marks at an average of six per game. Jeremy Howe has taken 126 marks, although his average (7.6 per game) is higher than Phillips'.
* Saturday's win ended a four-game losing streak against the Power, which dated back to 2015. In fact, Collingwood had lost six of its previous seven games against Port. Here's hoping the head-to-head record turns sharply in the Pies' favour over the coming years.
Tom Langdon is in sensational form down back. He had 18 disposals + held Robbie Gray to just one goal in Saturday's win. Now his first finals series beckons #FOREVER pic.twitter.com/RE7f7ZV4t1
