Falcons fall to Magpies
The Sunshine Coast Falcons suffered a 35-4 loss to Souths Logan Magpies on Saturday afternoon.
The visiting Magpies jumped out to an early lead and didn't look back, recording their second victory of the 2015 season.
Trailing 12-0 at the half-time break, the Sunshine Coast clawed their way back into the contest when U20 Thunderbolt Tony Tumusa, playing his first game in the Intrust Super Cup scored on the left wing.
Tumusa's try failed to spark a Falcons comeback however as Souths Logan piled on the points during the second half to run away with victory.
Sunshine Coast will travel to Langlands Park in Brisbane to face Easts Tigers in Round 11.
