Henwood Park are in the drivers’ seat to secure a week off in the finals after brushing past Tumut 5-2 on Saturday. The Hawks capitalised on an Eagles red card to overcome a 2-1 deficit and register a convincing win at their Rawlings Park fortress. The sides were locked at 2-all at half time but Ryan McKenzie’s men were unstoppable with the numbers advantage, blasting three unanswered goals to notch their third win in a row and climb into second on the ladder. “I thought Tumut were pretty competitive even with a player out and we still had to focus on not giving the ball away and maintain possession,” McKenzie said.
