Barwon Heads will meet Torquay in the Bellarine Football League grand final.

The Seagulls won their way through by defeating Drysdale in the preliminary final by six goals.

Both teams took turns in being inaccurate in front of goal.

Barwon Heads took a 16-point lead into half-time but it was reduced to four points after two quick goals to open the third quarter.

Drysdale would boot only one more major for the match while the Seagulls scored six to run out convincing winners.

Young gun Charlie Hurst starred for Barwon Heads while Nathan Brown was a focal point, especially early, with four goals.

Defender Jack Jenkins was Drysdale’s best while Mat Hebbard booted four goals to end on 95 for the season.

In the reserves, Torquay will play Drysdale after the Hawks won their way through by beating Geelong Amateur by 26 points.

Mitch O’Dowd was best while Jake Hargreaves kicked four and Nick Moriarty and Darcy Mullen three each.

Skipper James McGrath tried hard for Ammos with five goals.

Both grand finals are at Newcomb’s Grinter Reserve with the reserves starting at 11am and the seniors at 1.30pm.
