BATLEY BULLDOGS eased to an eight-try 48-10 victory at Rochdale Hornets yesterday ahead of next weekend's rematch with the same opponents.

The home side made the better start and took the lead when Declan Kay went over after some fast passing but Tyler Whittaker missed the conversion.

But Batley soon hit back when prop Michael Ward, rammed his way over the line from close range. Patrick Walker added the extras.
