Catalans Dragons climbed to second in First Utility Super League with a 40-0 win over Hull KR at the KC Lightstream Stadium.
It was their fifth successive win and their third on the road, while Rovers' first game back on home soil since conceding four tries in the final quarter of their derby against Hull FC continued in the same manner.
Catalans got on the front foot right from the opening kick-off with Willie Mason taking the first hit-up in his return to Rovers, where he spent a brief spell before an acrimonious departure in 2010.
At the end of the first set Jodie Broughton touched down, and from the restart Pat Richards won a penalty, from which Vincent Duport scored his side's second.
Broughton strolled through for his second of the night in the 22nd minute before Christian Inu jumped higher than Kieran Dixon to score the French side's fourth try.
Things got worse for Rovers just before half-time when Gregory Mounis picked up a pass from Olivier Elima to score from close range.
Rovers were caught napping nine minutes into the second half when Richie Myler, who was in great form throughout, nipped through from two metres out.
Ben Cockayne's sin binning summed up Rovers night in the 54th minute and Mason used his gangly frame to ground the ball.
