Olney were rocking and Phillips reacted quickest to the ball popping out of a five-metre scrum to go over.
Matt Goode then crossed and scrum half Phillips landed the kick to make it 26-0 at half-time.
Bulls dominated and Mills breezed over, Phillips slotted the extras.
It was then 45-0 when Isham scored his second try and Jimmy Manley got in on the act.
Phillips converted the latter.
And there was still time for the half-back to grab his second try, which he duly converted.
