The Bulls charged early to ensure there wouldn’t be another slip up against the team yet to win a game this season.
Coach Daniel Dowson was impressed with they way his team responded for a 57-10 victory.
“The boys were pretty rusty for the first 20 minutes," Dowson said.
“It was a bit tough in the middle, they came back and we threw it around a bit, doing silly stuff forcing the pass.
“But after half-time we regrouped, played to our strengths and structures, strung some good phases and earned the right to score.”
Tom Mouat impressed during his Southern Inland debut and continued that good form on against the Reddies.
“He had a blinder,” Dowson said.
“He got our players player and going away has lifted his standard going away for that (representative football).”
Will Onus was also strong in the forwards, as the captain-coach struggles to find his way back into the team.
Dowson is looking to keep the roll on against Wagga City on Saturday after both teams returned to the winners list.
“That will be a tough test but we should be good,” he said.
“We have come out pretty injury free and are looking to put that in the bag too.”
The wins leaves the Bulls three points clear of Leeton in second place.
Wagga City have moved up to fourth, courtesy of their win over Ag College, will CSU remain rooted to the bottom of the ladder.
They fave a massive test against undefeated Waratahs on Saturday.
