Led by stand in Captain Mike Gould who booted 13 goals for the afternoon, the Saints ran away in the second half to record a 21.14.140 to 9.2.56 win.
One of the most pleasing aspect of the win was the debut of a number of players including Dallas Baldwin, Will Kent, Hayden Chappel and Simon Reid, who all played their part in the Saints big win.
The Cats held their own and were competitive during the first half but the Saints were able to run riot in the second half as they brushed of the cobwebs to put in a workman like effort.
Stand-in Coach Allan Martin praised the backline consisting of Matt Harrison, the Hillybilly boys, Hayden Chappel, Pete Dunlop and Jono Elphick for their outstanding performance, saying they were responsible for the Saints big win.
It sets up a meeting with reigning premiers, the New England Nomads, next week in Armidale in what promises to be an exciting match.
The Saints should regain the services of Captain Justin Pay and Sam Kimmince for the crucial clash.
