The North Queensland Cowboys have piled more misery on the Wests Tigers with an NRL club-record win in front of a sellout crowd.
Eight Cowboys players crossed for tries in a 74-0 thumping to erase any memory of their shock defeat to the same opposition six weeks ago.
Five-eight Tom Dearden and fullback Scott Drinkwater wreaked havoc on the Tigers' toothless defence, combining for three tries, seven assists, and 412 run metres.
After an encouraging opening 15 minutes, the Tigers couldn't keep Deardon out, which led to the floodgates well and truly opening.
By halftime, the Cowboys had scored a further six tries for a stunning 42-0 lead at the break, and showed no sign of easing up in the second half.
Valentine Holmes and Semi Valemei dotted down to complete their try-doubles, while Murray Tuilagi scored two tries inside 15 minutes.
Veteran prop Jordan McLean capped off a sensational win with a rare try in the 79th minute, and for the third-biggest NRL victory in history.
It takes the Cowboys' win tally to nine wins for the season, equalling the NZ Warriors and Parramatta Eels.
Meanwhile, the Brisbane Broncos further solidified their title credentials with a 24-16 win over state rivals The Dolphins.
Queensland star Selwyn Cobbo scored a hat-trick, including an incredible chip-and-chase to deny Wayne Bennett's team.
Despite the loss, there were encouraging performances from The Dolphins' Kiwi contingent, with hooker Jeremy Marshall-King and Valynce Te Whare both scoring tries.
Marshall-King marked his return from injury with 32 tackles, and three tackle-breaks to go along with his four-pointer.
While former Waikato rugby player Te Whare again proved a handful in possession, shrugging off four tackles on his way to the try-line.
