The Demons took a surprising lead into quarter time, kicking four goals in quick succession while Sydney kicked eight straight points to open the term. Sydney didn't get their first until after the siren, but from there they were by the far better side.
Best were Jetta, T.McDonald and Petracca. Tomas Bugg was suspended for six weeks for striking.
