K Rock Football | For Torquay, the lucky number is 10.
A stunning ten-goal third-quarter burst has secured the Tigers their tenth Bellarine league premiership, beating Anglesea by 62 points at Leopold Memorial Park, 16.17 (113) to 7.9 (51).
For Dom Gleeson, it was his third premiership win as coach in his tenth season in charge.
After being on the end of a seven-point loss to the Roos in the second semi-final, Torquay proved why it has been flag favourite for most of the season.
“As I tried to explain in the couple of weeks after being beaten by Anglesea, they’re a formidable side,” Gleeson said.
“People were saying over that two-week period, ‘What happened?’.
“We lost to a better team on that day, and we did some learning and some soul-searching, and we were fortunate to get through Drysdale and gave ourselves an opportunity to play today.
“A lot went right for us today, that’s for certain.”
