RUGBY UNION: Gladstone Rugby Union Football Club Goats will need to do it the hard way if they are to progress to the Rugby Capricornia grand final.
Goats were outclassed in a big way 35-3 to Dawson Valley Drovers and will meet Rockhampton Brothers at a venue yet to be announced most likely this Saturday night.
Captain Seamus O'Connor said it was not the best day.
"Jaylyn Tanoi had a good game and other than that we weren't playing as a team like we planned to," he said.
"Finals are tough and we had one of those nights.
"We are lucky to get a second chance to take the long way to the GF. We can only get better, and we will."
