Having held a slender 3-0 lead at the end of the first half, Tigers went on to record a convincing 27-7 victory at Oval Park.
Tigers outscored their opponents by four tries to one as they banished the memories of a 15-10 away defeat in the very first match of the season.
Hooker Tom Collett scored his third try in two games, with blindside flanker Josh Goldspink grabbing a brace of scores and lock Dan Hemingway also crossing for the home side. Outside-half Joe Glover added two conversions and a penalty as Tigers built on last week’s 14-11 win over Sale Sharks.
