Lance Franklin the destroyer as Hawthorn thrash Sydney in grand final re-match Lance Franklin about to kick a goal in the second quarter against the Swans. Hawthorn 18.11.119 Sydney 12.10. LANCE Franklin, coming off the worst barren spell of his career, helped to lead Hawthorn's revenge mission against Sydney last night. The Swans will be significantly better for the test they gave against a Hawks outfit much further in their development for this season. Franklin started the ball rolling with three early goals before Jarryd Roughead (four goals), David Hale and Jack Gunston (three apiece) helped set up a 41-point three-quarter time lead. The Swans' best quarter was their last, with five goals. There is no doubting Franklin's sense of timing on the big stage. After two weeks where he couldn't buy a goal, he took just 2min 21sec to leave his mark on the scoreboard. A mark on a long lead in front of Ted Richards followed by a long-range shot from near the boundary line was all he needed to bring back his confidence and swagger. Franklin had a second just four minutes later to stretch the lead to 17 points. The Hawks' tough start to the season clearly held them in good stead for this contest. Playing every one of last year's finalists in the first seven rounds had them big- match tough. They dominated at centre bounces and around the ground early on. In contrast, the Swans' relatively easy build-up was shown up as they were second to the ball all over the ground. Franklin's second goal was followed by another from the unlikely source of ruckman Max Bailey, who showed rare skill for a big man as he converted with the outside of the boot. The Swans weren't helped by Shane Mumford's late withdrawal with a groin injury. His absence opened the way for Jesse White to play his first game since Round 7 last year. During the off-season White had been offered as bait to the Adelaide Crows in the trade for Kurt Tippett. By throwing White into the ruck, coach John Longmire was able to move Mike Pyke up forward. It looked to be an astute switch when Pyke took two strong marks inside forward 50 and produced the Swans' only goal of the term. But it was barely enough as the Hawks went to the first break with a 23-point lead. Unlike the grand final, the Hawks were the making the most of their chances. Roughead opened the second quarter with two brilliant goals, when he could only come up with three behinds in last year's decider. Franklin was another who found the range after coming under fire for his wayward kicking when these teams last met. His third goal was one of his best as he took on Richards and the rest of the Swans defence before booting a major from close range. Ben McGlynn, who missed last year's grand final with a hamstring injury, was one Swans player to make an impact with two goals in a brief period to threaten a comeback. But another goal to Roughead brought his tally to three for the half and another two from Jack Gunston gave Hawthorn a 40-point break. The Swans did better in the second half, with Josh Kennedy having 30 disposals and Adam Goodes working his way into the match, but it was a lost cause by then.
