The Saints gained their first five point win of the season with a five try demolition of Rotherham Titans at Millmoor this afternoon. Saints dominated proceedings from the off in front of a near 3000 crowd.

Despite losing Robbie Morris to an early yellow the Saints built up a commanding 27-6 lead at half time with tries through Dan Richmond, Mark Tucker and Johnny Howard and 12 points from the boot of Shane Drahm.

Chris Hyndman sedured the bonus on 55 minutes and a late score was added by an as yet unconfirmed Saints player.

Roth had a consolation try scored by strange.
