With the Cats opening the scoring from a Gary Ablett goal after just nine seconds it seemed that the unbeaten Cats were going to steamroll the hapless Demons.
Russell Robertson returned from injury for his first game of the year and was the focal point the team had lacked over the previous few weeks.
Clint Bartram played his 50th game despite his father passing away the day before.
Best were Davey, Frawley and Robertson.
