GWS Giants centurion Toby Greene has kicked a career-high five goals, with his side recovering from a mid-match snooze to post a record-setting 102-point pasting of Gold Coast.
Smarting from a opening round 56-point thumping by Adelaide last weekend, the Giants swiftly got their percentage back into the black on Saturday with a 24.16 (160) to 8.10 (58) victory at Spotless Stadium.
It was the Giants' biggest ever winning margin, beating a 92-point victory over Fremantle last year, and their highest score, eclipsing their tally of 158 against Hawthorn which was also in 2016.
The Suns slashed a 52 point-deficit to point to 22 early in the third quarter but GWS slammed on 10 straight goals and kicked 14 of the last 15 majors.
Jeremy Cameron kicked six goals and Steve Johnson booted three, with the latter boosting his career tally to 499.
Greene, who became the first player drafted by the Giants to play 100 games for the club, was prominent in the early onslaught.
For the second straight week Gold Coast leaked seven goals and trailed by 38 at the first break.
The Giants kicked 10 of ther first 12 goals but the Suns threatened to make a contest of it with five straight either side of halftime.
It proved a false dawn for the Suns, with the Giants piling on the last six goals of the term and the first four of the final quarter.
Some of the Suns big guns failed to fire with Tom Lynch finishing goalless and Gary Ablett tallying just one touch in the first quarter and 16 for the game.
Callan Ward (32 touches), Dylan Shiel (28) and Josh Kelly (27 and three goals) were all prominent for GWS..
Jack Martin kicked three goals for the Suns and Kade Kolodjashnij accumulated 27 touches.
