Hull KR kept up the heat up on the top four and boosted their hopes of a home play-off with a comfortable 28-10 victory over Catalan Dragons at Craven Park.
Four first-half tries for the Robins with two from Jack Broadbent and one each from Jez Litten and Joe Burgess put the hosts 22-6 up at the break.
Charlie Staines, with a brilliant solo effort, got the Dragons on the scoreboard but the visitors were unable to mount a comeback in a second period in which both sides scored a try each - the hosts through Tyrone May and Catalans by Tommy Makinson's effort seven minutes from time.
Victory means the Robins stay fifth, two points behind Wakefield and Warrington, with the reigning champions playing the Wolves on Tuesday in a match that could have a huge bearing on the play-offs.
