It was one way traffic yesterday as an unstoppable Coffs crushed the in-form Rebels.
Back from injury, captain Alfred Penese, was judged man of the match, scoring three tries and leading his side to a confidence boosting win.
The Comets’ Kerrod Selmes top scored for his side scoring three tries and two conversions.
His effort earned him the Players’ Player award.
Adding to South Grafton’s woes, halfback Anthony Cowan looks like being out for weeks after landing badly in a tackle.
For the Rebels the thrashing will serve as a lesson in complacency.
Coffs Harbour jumped out of the box early with two quick tries and we never recovered from that.
Next week the Comets will be full of confidence when they travel to Grafton to take on reigning premiers, the Ghosts.
