A masterful performance by the Free State powerhouse saw them lay down a marker ahead of the Craven Week, which is set to take place at Monnas in June.
The halfback pairing of Philip McLaren and Alzeadon Felix caused the visitors endless problems, combining for three tries to help drive their side to a convincing win.
The big Grey College winger Pretorius Ekeji also dotted down twice in quick succession to help tighten the screws.
The Krugersdorp outfit got onto the scoreboard early in the match through Jason Joubert, and a second by the big lock Nathan Erasmus gave them a glimmer of hope before the break.
In the second stanza, however, it was one-way traffic, and Monument’s only points came through their speedy winger Ernesto Oersen, who turned on the afterburners to score from his own half, completely against the run of play.
Heinz Stockenström had a memorable day for Grey, contributing 25 points to his side’s considerable total.
Both Marcel Coetzee and Thristan Maree, who came into the starting XV in the place of regular starters, Heinrich Theron and Ethan Adams, also crossed the try line, which served to underline the strength in depth of the Bloemfontein side.
After their provincial duties, the Grey College boys will be back in action again on 20 July when they host their sister school from Gqeberha, Grey High, before taking on Oakdale Landbou in Riversdal.
As always, they finish their season with a big derby against their rivals, Paul Roos Gimnasium, who are still unbeaten this year.
