A DOMINANT seven-goal second term from the Brisbane Lions have helped them to a 27-point half-time lead over Western Bulldogs at Etihad Stadium.
The Lions have ran and moved the ball with great pace, with Rohan Bewick (19 disposals) leading the way in his return game.
The Bulldogs' defensive work has been below par, while they also seem flat-footed when the Lions break from stoppages.
In tonight's other game, Essendon leads GWS Giants by 10 points at half-time in greasy conditions at Spotless Stadium.

Essendon kicked the first goal of the game through late inclusion Corey Dell'OIio, but it was GWS who controlled the game for the remainder of the opening term.
The Giants had more inside 50s than Essendon in the first quarter and looked hungrier around the ground.
Essendon developed greater fluency in its game towards the end of the first half and Dell'Olio's second major — after a 50m penalty — gave it a narrow buffer.
Earlier, Port Adelaide responded to a St Kilda second-quarter challenge to run out comfortable 70-point winners at the Adelaide Oval.
Chad Wingard punctuated the victory, taking a huge mark over Sean Dempster in the third term. Wingard finished with three goals and a mortgage on Mark of the Year honours.

Robbie Gray was among Port's best with four goals while Jay Schulz slotted three of his own. St Kilda champion Nick Riewoldt played a lone hand up forward with four goals.
In Launceston, a seven-goal third quarter saw Hawthorn demolish West Coast at Aurora Stadium.
Jarryd Roughead was the star with eight goals as the Hawks shrugged off any injury concerns, to win 19.9 (123) to 12.7 (79).
Hawthorn debutant Luke Lowden kicked three goals in an impressive display while Andrew Gaff and Luke Shuey were among the best for the Eagles.
