Hull KR sent another warning to promotion favourites Castleford with a second victory in a month over the LHF Healthplan National League leaders.
Third-placed Rovers got the better of the Tigers in a tight Northern Rail Cup final and bettered that with a 46-18 win at Craven Park.
Byron Ford, Leroy Rivett, Paul Mansson, Dwayne Barker, Andy Ellis, James Webster, Mark Blanchard and Dale Holdstock were all on the scoresheet as the dominant Robins moved within two points of their Yorkshire rivals.
Jordan James, Waine Pryce and Andy Kain were the Tigers' tryscorers.
But National League One remains very much a three-horse race after Whitehaven moved level with the Tigers with a 36-16 win over Oldham at the Recreation Ground.

Match Report Taken from the Excellent Castigers.net site run by Stuart Main
A week off and a slightly reshuffled side seem to have done wonders for the Tigers. Looking uncertain and ragged even in victory two weeks ago they looked incisive and assured this week as they cooly dispatched local rivals Featherstone 40-6. Aaron Smith returned but at hooker with Andy Henderson moved to number 7 and Andy Kain starting from the bench. Michael Shenton scored a try of the season contender to open the scoring for the afternoon. Tommy Haughey contributed 2 tries whilst Waine Pryce extended his tally to 29. There was also a well taken try for Damien Blanch - his second in two appearances.
Second rower Tom Haughey also scored a hat-trick of tries as pre-season promotion favourites Castleford were condemned to second place despite ending the regular campaign with a 54-12 win at relegation-threatened Batley.
Haughey's support play and powerful running brought him two touchdowns in the first half and another after the break.
There was also a two-try display from prop Adam Watene while other scores came from Wayne Pryce, Andy Cain, Jordan James, Jon Hepworth and Brad Davis.
Batley, who must win the League Two play-offs to keep their current status, had the consolation of scoring the try of the match when threequarters Steve Jones and Jamie Stokes combined over 50 metres to provide a touchdown for Jones.
