PORT ADELAIDE has suffered a blow ahead of Showdown XXVI with star midfielder Shaun Burgoyne ruled out for up to a month with a knee injury.
Burgoyne was a late withdrawal from the win over Hawthorn in round four with knee soreness and was not considered for selection for last Friday night's clash against St Kilda at AAMI Stadium.
The 26-year-old had minor surgery on Tuesday morning with some damage to the surface of a joint repaired.
Port says the surgery revealed no ligament or major structural damage.
