With Rovers now chasing the game in the second period Josh West and Joe Cook tormented the Swan defence, but, when Craig Dean found himself bearing down on Craig Evans in the Rovers goal, the tired legs of a chasing Josh West tangled with Dean's and Swan were awarded a penalty. After Josh West received his marching orders, Neil Conway stepped up to put the game beyond doubt, but, he put the ball wide. Swan held on and now face George FC in the final.
