The Moree Boars league tag team have been on a roll in recent rounds and the Magpies girls were out to halt their momentum.
By half-time, the Boars had rocketed out to a 16-4 lead before Glen Innes pegged them back to 16-14.
In the dying minutes of the match, the Boars managed to find the tryline to seal the 22-14 win.
Captain Amelia Tunamena said mistakes were what cost her side.
"I was really happy with the Glen girls, we really put it to them," she said.
"In my opinion, we were the better side, they just capitalised on our mistakes.
"A few missed conversions, I kicked one and it hit the post. They scored right on the buzzer and that is always a coach killer. There was only two points in it and then just slipped through and scored."
Under 18s
An 11-man Glen Innes team travelled to face the undefeated Boars team and were dealt a blow early.
They were reduced to 10 players early on when one suffered a concussion.
Shortly before half-time, Ali Crossley went down with a neck injury and the Magpies were left with nine players. In the second stanza, the Magpies were leading 12-6 before another player went down with injury, this time a dislocated knee.
Country Rugby League rules state when a team falls below nine players on the field, the match must be terminated so the Glen-Boars fixture was cancelled.
Because Glen Innes were in front at the time the match was terminated, they were deemed the winners.
"I am rapt because the boys that we had there on the day worked their guts out and they deserved it," coach Gavin Peterson said.
"We spoke before the game, we knew we were short on numbers but our message was to go out there to win and not to give up and they didn't.
"They didn't give up and both myself and Danny, the assistant coach, were very proud of their effort."
A-grade
The Magpies A-grade team came out of the blocks firing against the Boars before a lapse in concentration allowed the home side back into the match.
After leading 20-6, the Magpies "fell asleep" and the Boars came back to level things up 28-all at the break.
"Whether it is just coming down to not enough footy games or maybe fatigue kicking in," Magpies player-coach Nick Say said.
"It is hard when you have got a few weeks off to get blokes to come and get them involved in again.
"We spoke about it at half-time because they got a bit of a roll on in the back of the first-half. We are going to have go back out in the second-half, nil-all now
"I thought we played a lot better in second-half."
The Magpies and Boars traded tries right up until the 80-minute mark but the visitors held on to land the 46-38 win.
