The next match that afternoon saw the Rocky boys take on competition favourites Sunshine Coast Falcons. The match saw the Rustlers score first which would later become their lifeline. The game was back and forth and both sides had missed opportunities, but at the end of the match it was 8 all. The rules regarding a draw in the Round Robin format is that the first scorer progresses into the final. So Rockhampton marched on. The Final saw arguably the best two sides of the competition facing off for the first time.
