BRISBANE has continued its ominous run to September, riding a 14-goal second half avalanche to outclass Port Adelaide by 59 points on a glorious Sunday afternoon at the Gabba.

After a tightly contested first half, the Lions blew the game open with a seven-goal third quarter and then piled on another seven in the fourth to win 19.12 (126) to 9.13 (67).

The back-to-back premiers have now won seven games straight and sit one game plus percentage inside the top four with a month of the home and away season remaining.

Leading by three goals midway through the third term, Sam Draper unleashed a Goal of the Year contender when he burst from the middle of the ground and bombed the ball home from inside the centre square.

From there it was a party for the Lions.

Will Ashcroft kicked his second goal on the three quarter-time siren to give the hosts a 29-point lead. Logan Morris bagged two to open the fourth quarter and then Charlie Cameron surprised even himself with a towering goalsquare hanger to delight the 30,722 home fans.

Logan Morris, Zac Bailey, Charlie Cameron and Kai Lohmann all got amongst the goals with three apiece.

For the second straight week Port Adelaide was more than competitive against one of the competition fancies, but just as happened a week ago against Fremantle, they were opened up in a short space of time.

Jason Horne-Francis was arguably the best player on the field with his 30 touches, a goal and three assists, but he battled for midfield help.

Mitch Georgiades was his usual handful in attack, but was wayward with the boot, kicking 2.4.

Despite conceding the first three goals of the game, the visitors worked their way back into the contest with a disciplined approached that forced Brisbane into taking options it wasn't comfortable with.

Dante Visentini's set shot midway through the second quarter gave them the lead, but Brisbane never panicked and eventually assumed control after the main break.

They had almost 100 more total disposals and as the warm afternoon wore on, were able to get their uncontested mark game going.

Gallop MRO moment
Brisbane defender Ty Gallop is likely to come under scrutiny from the MRO following a second quarter incident with Mitch Georgiades. After a strong tackle bought the Port forward to ground, Gallop grabbed Georgiades, who was lying face-down, by the jumper and slammed him back into the turf. The Port star was not concussed and played the game out, but it was an unnecessary action.
