Emirates Lions qualified for the EPCR Challenge Cup Round of 16, beating the Dragons RFC 60-10 in Johannesburg on Saturday afternoon.
Francke Horn got their first try of the afternoon with a saucy step out wide to beat his last defender before Sam Francis dummied and darted through under the posts for the Lions' second.
Next to cross was Ruan Venter after breaking the line outside the 22 and powering through a third defender to make it to the line, and Tapiwa Mafura wrapped up the bonus point after a great miss pass put him in space out wide.
The Emirates Lions led 31-03 at the halftime break.
Apart from a try by Paula Latu for the Dragons the Lions continue to run the defence of the Dragons into pieces.
Francke Horn, Gianni Lombard, Jaco Visagie, Ruan Venter and Manuel Rass added their names to the scoresheet to secure the Lions a 60-10 win.
