The Picton Magpies have defeated the Camden Rams and will go into the Minor Semi Finals this Saturday after winning of 24 points to 18.

With the Rams already securing three wins over the Magpies so far this season they were the hot favourite to win, but instead they were short fated after the Magpies stormed home with the win.

The Rams had scored 12 points nearing the half time mark before the Magpies decided to hit back, evening the score up.

After that the Magpies were determined not to let the Rams take the win home when centre Rob Chauvet forced himself over the line to score another try just before the half time.

10 minutes into the second half Brett Clark made an addition to the point score charging over the try line for the Rams.

That was how the game’s score line stayed up until the whistle blew for full time with the Magpies ending up 24 points to 18 winners.

The Magpies are now flying off to the Minor Semi Finals this Saturday.
