Leading 12-0 at half-time, a strong second half from the Magpies ensured they secured their third win of the 2025 season.

It was Luke Jack who grabbed the first points of the afternoon, as Krystian Mapapalangi set up the charging back-rower for his second try in three matches in the NSW Cup.

Leading 12-0 at the break, the Magpies scored an outstanding try to extend their lead in the 48th minute, with some second-phase play allowing Heath Mason to break the line and offload to a flying Solomona Faataape.

Faataape grabbed a second shortly after when he cleaned up a loose ball from a Magpies bomb.
