The victory was sparked by an inspired four-goal performance by Lance Franklin, while Tom Papley kicked two majors.
It ended up a surprisingly comfortable win for Sydney after a tight and fiery start that saw the Demons kick 4.0 to Sydney’s 1.8 in the first term.
The sparks flew early after Tom Bugg took the mantle of primary Melbourne antagonist from Clayton Oliver, who started the night on the bench after his controversial week.
Bugg was nearly ripped apart by the Swans after he socked defender Callum Mills in the first quarter…
