“I thought we played well,” coach Kylie Proctor told the Baw Baw Citizen after the game.
“We probably didn’t score as many turnovers as we would have liked to, but we shot [69] goals so I guess that’s some good form going into finals with lots of different combinations.
“One of our best players is pregnant so she’s not playing anymore, but it’s good to get ahead and shoot lots of goals, because that’s what we’re going to have to do in the finals to be competitive. Hopefully we’ll continue doing that.”
The Hawks A Grade side will face Warragul in Sunday’s elimination final. Drouin has struggled against the Gulls this season, losing against their rival in Round 4 by 15 points, and again in Round 13 by four points.
