Gabriel Hamer-Webb scored five tries as Leicester Tigers crushed an ill-disciplined and desperately outclassed Newcastle Red Bulls in The Prem.
Newcastle already had Elliott Obatoyinbo in the sin-bin when Jamie Blamire put the hosts ahead in the second minute, and the visitors were down to 13 men soon after when Ollie Leatherbarrow was shown a 20-minute red card for a reckless challenge.
Another Blamire score against his former side was followed by a first-half hat-trick from Hamer-Webb that put the East Midlands side 31-3 up at the break.
Izaia Perese added to the advantage after the break before Hamer-Webb grabbed a further two tries and Adam Radwan got among the scoring spree with a double of his own to complete the romping home victory.
And it was a win that was made all the sweeter for Tigers when fit-again England lock George Martin came off the bench for his first appearance in 14 months after a horror run of injury setbacks.
