Torquay remains unbeatable

Torquay looks to be a hard team to beat after taking out another win in the Bellarine Football League season.

After booting nine goals to three in the first half, Torquay maintained their unbeaten status, defeating Newcomb on Saturday, May 6, with a final score of 16.14 (110) and 6.3 (39).

Lucas Anderson and Jesse Dawson played a great game for the Tigers, both kicking five goals at Grinter Reserve’s PlasterCom Oval, while Jarrad Duncan scored two goals for Newcomb.

Barwon Heads recovered from their 52-point defeat by Torquay during the last round and took out an 16.17 (113) to 4.5 (29) win against Ocean Grove on the Howard Harmer Oval.

Brock Close led the Seagulls with five goals as the team kept the Grubbers from scoring during the third quarter.

Anglesea handed out a 73-point thrashing to Portarlington, which allowed them to retain their fifth-place spot on the ladder.

Dylan Pettingill helped carry Anglesea to victory by booting six goals, pummelling Portarlington 17.20 (122) to 7.7 (49).

Queenscliff and the Geelong Amateurs battled it out during the round’s closest game, with the Coutas taking the 13.14 (92) to 8.12 (60) win at home.

The Coutas were dominant early, keeping the Ammos down 45-3 in the first quarter, but the visitors never gave up, outkicking the home side eight goals to six for the remainder of the match.

Despite struggling in the first quarter and falling one point behind, Drysdale rose above Modewarre with a 16.15 (111) to 8.10 (58) win at Mount Moriac Reserve.

Jake Hargreaves and Tom Ruggles kicked four for Drysdale, while Jack Slater was best for the Moddas.
