THE SYDNEY Swans have enjoyed a Sunday afternoon stroll at the SCG, easily dismissing a disappointing Brisbane Lions outfit by 60 points.

Sam Reid (three goals) and Lewis Jetta (21 possessions, two goals) showed some welcome form in a 17.13 (115) to 8.7 (55) victory that moves the premiers to 5-1 for the season ahead of a huge showdown with Hawthorn at the MCG.

Second to every ball and lacking urgency and competitiveness, the Lions were more like newborn kittens in perfect, sunlit conditions.

The Swans had 6.4 on the board virtually before the Lions had made it anywhere near their forward 50.

The Swans won the disposals 121-56, reportedly the most touches in a quarter in the club's history, and dominated the marks (23-10) and inside 50s (15-6).

Perhaps most worryingly for Voss, his side also lost the tackle count 20-16, despite barely touching the Sherrin.

They finally kicked their first score with a Pearce Hanley goal 25 minutes into the quarter, going into the break trailing by 40 points.

Brisbane did lift in the second quarter, matching the Swans with three goals, but it was still all too easy for the premiers.

The remaining three quarters were relatively even but the damage had all been done early on by the Swans.

Dan Hannebery, Kieren Jack and Nick Malceski were excellent for the Swans in Jarrad McVeigh's 200th game.

For the Lions, Ryan Lester and Jed Adcock had their moments and Joel Patfull did a reasonable job on Adam Goodes but there was little else to write home about for the visitors.

There is also no relief in sight. The Lions' next seven opponents are West Coast, Essendon, Carlton, Collingwood, Fremantle, Geelong and Hawthorn.
