BARWON HEADS will play Torquay next Saturday to determine which club will play in the BFL Grand Final following a tremendous 14-point win over Drysdale at Portarlington this afternoon.

The Seagulls fended off a three-goal blitz by the Hawks in the third quarter to run out 17.8.110 to 14.12.96 winners.

Sammy Baker and Nathan Brown each kicked four majors in the win, meanwhile captain Mitchell Herbison added on a pair of his own.

Bellarine goal-kicking machine Mat Hebbard was limited to three goals, Tom Ruggles also snagged a trio of his own.

Drysdale will square off with the winner of tomorrow’s Elimination Final between Modewarre and Geelong Amateur next Sunday back in Portarlington.

Next Saturday’s bout between Barwon Heads and the Tigers will be a rematch of the 2019 Grand Final.
