The Demons were quick out of the box and took Collingwood by surprise early, but a six goal to two third quarter - like so many third quarter efforts that year - put the game out of their reach. Josh Fraser dominated the ruck against a disappointing Paul Johnson and second gamer Jake Spencer.
Best were Davey, Martin and Green.
