Wigan Warriors returned to winning ways ahead of next week's trip to Las Vegas to face Warrington Wolves as they eased past Hull FC at the MKM Stadium.
A week on from drawing a blank in an historic first single point 1-0 defeat against Leigh Leopards, and a week before the trip Stateside, Matty Peet's side were back to something approaching last season's best.
In a dominant first-half display which saw Jai Field hit Hull with two tries and Abbas Miski and Patrick Mago one apiece, Wigan blew their hosts away and went in 22-0 up at the break.
Despite a brighter start to the second period from the Black and Whites, which saw hopes briefly rise when Lewis Martin went over in the corner, the Warriors quickly extinguished them.
Jordan Rapana's short goalline dropout backfired, allowing Tom Forber to pick up and add a fifth try and another smart break from Field, finished off by Jake Wardle put Wigan back out of sight.
Field continued the rout with a training ground move off the back of a scrum to bag his hat-trick with 13 minutes remaining before Bevan French completed it, rounding off a break on the right wing.
