The Raiders ran riot at Apex Oval on Sunday afternoon, cracking triple figures in another low point for Dubbo Westside.
The derby finished 128-0, the Raiders' for and against getting a massive and much-needed boost after two heavy losses following a round one draw with Narromine.
The Raiders, giving first grade debuts to Brody Chapman and former reserve grade captain-coach Adam McDermott, were simply unstoppable on Sunday and ran in a stunning 23 tries.
Fullback Sam Thorpe finished with four tries while Boche Satrick bagged himself 40 points courtesy of one try and 18 conversions.
Young winger Brodie Ford also finished with a hat-trick in the rout.

McDermott finished with a double in his shock appearance in first grade.
