The Bees smashed Grafton 94-nil.
"Scored plenty of points but we did drop a lot of ball because we had so much," coach Phil Jones said.
"We did try and score off every phase instead of sticking with our structures.

"It is a great win for the club and we need to score a lot of points to get our for and against up again."
While the team scored plenty of points, Jones highlighted the performances of Jayson Murphy, Jack Cowan and Matthew Minns.
Off-the-field, a signed Wallabies jersey was auctioned off for $1700 as well as other fundraisers for Mystery Box Rally and Queensland wheelchair rugby player Luke Matthews.
"It was a fantastic day for Ladies' Day, big crowd, weather was beautiful," Jones said.
"They couldn't complain about not scoring any tries.
"A big thank you to all the ladies for coming and supporting and people on the barbeque and bar.
"Also, Jim at the Telegraph, he bought the jumper and has been giving us heaps of support.
"Jess Lockwood entertained on the day and she was really good."
The Bees are on the road again this Saturday to face the Kyogle Cockies.
Heading into the final few matches, Jones said results are crucial to earning a semi-final spot.
"We have just got to get to training this week and we have a must win against Kyogle," he said.
"It is away, they will be strong at home. They have sneaked in front of us on the table with all games against Grafton and two forfeits.
"We are going to have to win two of our next three to cement our spot in the finals.
"It is a must-win, must-train sort of situation."
