Umyla Hanley's hat-trick helped Leigh Leopards brush aside a misfiring Catalans Dragons to extend their winning start to the Super League season.
Catalans struggled to turn pressure into points, while their clinical hosts tore into a 16-0 half-time lead as Hanley, Keanan Brand and Jack Hughes all crossed.
Hanley extended the lead soon after the break and Ethan O'Neill went over for his first Leigh try as the Dragons' error count soared.
Alrix Da Costa finally got the visitors on the board, but Hanley completed his hat-trick to cap an emphatic win.
