The Queensland Reds have finally chalked up successive Super rugby wins, flogging the Western Force 50-10 at Lang Park.

The Reds ran in seven tries to one, with Digby Ioane, Anthony Faingaa and Scott Higginbotham all bagging doubles as the home side notched up back-to-back victories for the first time since 2006.

Luke Morahan was the other try-scorer for Queensland, with Quade Cooper converting five of them and Ben Lucas another.

Cooper also grabbed three points via a penalty.

Nick Cummins crossed for the last-placed visitors, who are yet to chalk up a win in a sorry start to their Super 14 campaign.

The Reds are in sixth position with three wins from their five matches.Reds: 50 (A Faingaa 2, S Higginbotham 2, D Ioane 2, L Morahan tries; Q Cooper 5 conversions, penalty, Ben Lucas conversionForce: 10 (N Cummins try; J O'Connor conversion, penalty)
