‘Fix this crossing’ By Matt Crossman

GOT

Two Gisborne brothers whose surname is almost synonymous with the town, have been recognised with Order of Australia medals (OAM). Like many siblings who grew up in country towns, Edward and Peter Gardiner have always done everything together. Both were mechanics at Gardiner’s Garage for 56 years and were the happy helpers welcomed by generations of motorists who found themselves stuck at the side of local roads. The pair also spent close to 20 years on the field with Gisborne football and cricket clubs, served in various committee roles and were members of the town’s fire brigade. Edward, 75, said that while it was nice to be recognised, the brothers’ contribution to Gisborne life was ‘‘just what you do’’. ‘‘We’re just ordinary people, really,’’ he said. ‘‘If there’s something that needs to be done, you do it.’’ The family has had a long association with Gisborne, having been among the town’s early pioneers. The garage in which the brothers spent so much of their lives also had deep roots. ‘‘It was the continuation of a family business that started as a blacksmith’s in the 1860s,’’ Edward said. ‘‘Then it was a coachbuilder’s and, when the ‘horseless carriages’ came along, they moved into them ... so there we were … continuing that tradition.’’ Peter, 79, said he was pleased to be awarded alongside his younger brother. ‘‘We’ve been in everything together,’’ he said. Woodend’s Jennifer Holliday was made a member of the Order of Australia (AM) for her services to softball as a player and coach at national and international levels, and as a senior administrator of the game.

Heart, soul of Gisborne

Hume councillors are being urged to push for the upgrade of a rail crossing that’s creating frequent traffic snarls and leading to risky behaviour in central Sunbury. Sunbury-based councillor Jack Medcraft wants the council to write to the state government seeking action on the Gap Road level crossing. About 18,000 vehicles a day use Gap Road. Cr Medcraft said traffic in the area had become increasingly choked since electrification of the train line in 2013. Population growth is also making matters worse, with traffic often banked up in surrounding streets, jamming a nearby roundabout. ‘‘It’s great to have a rail service, but if you’re not going to address the traffic problems, what’s the point?’’ Cr Medcraft said. ‘‘Boom gates are down for longer. Trains are coming through every few minutes. ‘‘To both political parties, I would be saying, if you want Sunbury people to take you seriously, get this crossing done.’’ Drivers often accelerate to beat boom gates and pedestrians sometimes walk around barriers, but Cr Medcraft said the crossing was more than just an inconvenience. He said possible solutions included an underpass or relocation of the main train station to a planned stop at Sunbury South. ‘‘It’s a major safety issue,’’ Cr Medcraft said. ‘‘If the road went underneath, you could eliminate all of that.’’ As reported by Star Weekly Weekly, the crossing and nearby roundabout were not mentioned in VicRoads’ priority list released last October. The Sunbury Residents Association has previously called for a third railway crossing towards Vineyard Road to ease congestion. Mayor Helen Patsikatheodorou said the council would support any measure to improve safety and traffic flow. ‘‘The state government announced last year that it would fund a study of this intersection, and we’re keen to see the corner improved,’’ she said. ‘‘While an underpass at the railway crossing would make a huge difference, council will continue to ask the government to install traffic lights at the corner of Gap Road and Horne Street.’’ Cr Medcraft said people were sick of the area being overlooked. ‘‘Sunbury’s going to be one of the biggest growth corridors in the west. If we can’t get this fixed now, what sort of problems are we going to have in 10 years time?’’ he asked.

Fire-hit residents back mobile phone campaign Residents who were cut off from the outside world during last October’s devastating bushfire near Lancefield are demanding major improvements to mobile phone coverage in the area. People in Benloch and surrounding towns are among those who have supported McEwen Labor MP Rob Mitchell’s campaign for up to 30 projects to be funded under the second round of the federal government’s mobile phone black-spot program. Darren Burns, who runs Benloch’s Weekaway

holiday camp, said poor coverage was a major safety risk. ‘‘Mobile and internet coverage up here is almost non-existent,’’ Mr Burns said. ‘‘We’ve got wireless on a 30-foot pole to try and get anything, but if the wind blows the wrong way it’s out for three days. We have to do better.’’ As reported by Star Weekly Weekly, the electorate was mostly ignored in last year’s first round, with one new tower funded and another reinstated. During October’s fire, many residents complained about poor or non-existent mobile

and internet coverage, with many unable to access the CFA’s FireReady app or not receiving text alerts until days afterwards. Under the federal scheme, areas are given high priority if they are susceptible to disasters, are small communities or are near significant transport corridors. Mr Mitchell said that with the Calder Freeway close by, the area fulfilled all three criteria. ‘‘McEwen is riddled with mobile black spots, creating risks – particularly on high-fire-danger

days when authorities, families and local communities rely most on mobile phones,’’ he said. ‘‘It’s no secret McEwen has faced five major fires the past six summers, including Black Saturday, the Mickleham-Kilmore fire and the recent Lancefield fire. ‘‘Townships and communities are counting on round two being conducted solely on need.’’ Successful submissions will be announced later this year.

Fire source ‘suspicious’

1134121-CG20-14

The occupants of a white sedan could hold the key to an investigation into a bushfire that tore through more than 100 hectares of land and destroyed a house at Edgecombe last Tuesday. As reported by Star Weekly online, the grass and scrub fire, which started north of the intersection of Edgecombe and Red Hill roads about 2.20pm, is being treated as suspicious. Police have urged anyone with information to come forward. Detectives from the Macedon Ranges criminal investigation unit said two vehicles

were seen in the area at the time of the fire. Police spoke to the occupants of a dark Mercedes Benz and ruled them out of the investigation. A police spokesman said there was nothing to suggest the incident was linked to a series of deliberately lit blazes near Malmsbury and Metcalfe since last November. More than 30 firefighting vehicles and six aircraft were involved in efforts to contain last week’s fire, which took place on a total fire ban day and sparked an emergency warning for surrounding communities and a watch and act alert for nearby towns.

A house on Black Hill School Road was destroyed by the fire, as were an outbuilding and kilometres of fencing. The house is believed to be attached to Langleyvale Vineyard. Kyneton resident Richard Beinac, who built the house in 1998 before selling, said he was saddened by its demise. Mr Beinac remains good friends with the owners of nearby Kyneton Ridge Estate, which sustained significant damage during a bushfire at neighbouring Black Hill Reserve in January last year. ‘‘It’s uncanny for this to happen almost a year to the day of that fire,’’ Mr Beinac said.

Bendigo line train commuters have welcomed moves to allow free travel after a week of major disruptions but are urging V/Line to quickly fix the problems that have plagued services on the line. Hundreds of trains were cancelled last week due to faults, including an escalated rate of wearing on the wheels of VLocity carriages and the failure of a train to trigger boom gates. Woodend’s Rob Knight, who has travelled on V/Line trains for almost 30 years, said last week’s mass cancellation of services was inexcusable. ‘‘Free travel is good, but they have to improve the service,’’ he said. ‘‘Things have improved as far as quality goes with the new carriages, but reliability and overcrowding has got worse over the past year or two.’’ Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan, who ordered an independent review and announced $23 million for axle counters to ensure trains trigger boom gates, said V/Line had failed to adequately prepare for increased regional services. She said it was an unacceptable and avoidable situation. ‘‘I’m advised that these issues are being addressed through additional maintenance and the replacement of wheels, and that services will progressively resume over the coming weeks,’’ Ms Allan said. All V/Line travel is free this week, with passengers not paying a cent until next Monday. A V/Line spokeswoman did not respond to questions by deadline, but in a statement the train operator said commuters using myki would receive automatic reimbursement equivalent to nine days of free travel being provided.

A man accused of lighting bushfires in Sunbury has denied he was in parkland when two fires were lit. Stuart Dean Robson, 48, of Sunbury, is charged with starting two fires in parkland on October 15 last year. Police allege that about 9.20am he lit a fire that was put out by walkers and that he started a second fire about 9.40am. Defence counsel Brad Penno told Melbourne Magistrates Court last week CCTV footage was of poor quality. The footage will be played to court on May 9 during a contested committal hearing. Robson is also charged with lighting three fires in Sunbury in the Christmas period. He will be remanded until March.

Teen found in SES search

Sunbury SES volunteers were involved in the successful search for a missing Melton teenager last Wednesday. More than 30 SES volunteers from four units were part of the effort, which ended at 4am when a crew found the teen and took him to a waiting ambulance.

SunFest rocks awards

Staff brace for job losses

By Matt Crossman Efforts to celebrate links between Sunbury’s biggest community festival and the famous rock concerts of the 1970s have paid off, with SunFest sharing Hume’s ‘event of the year’ Australia Day award. The 39th annual festival, held on March 14-15 last year, was named joint winner of the title with the Iraq Unity Cup soccer tournament played in Dallas on March 7, 2015. SunFest stage entertainment co-ordinator Graham Hanley-Smith said there had been a real effort to reconnect with the history of the event, which grew out of the rock festivals that featured the likes of Billy Thorpe. ‘‘We’ve always said that that’s where we started from, but until recently there haven’t been real links drawn,’’ he said. A popular feature of last year’s SunFest was the display of rare memorabilia from the original concerts. Other highlights were a traditional street parade with floats celebrating local emergency services, schools, community groups and businesses, a talent show, fun run and live music on the Village Green. Mr Hanley-Smith said organisers still wanted a permanent space developed for exhibits relating to the rock festivals and Sunbury’s role as the birthplace of cricket’s Ashes. ‘‘For us, it’s a no brainer,” he said. “Any other town would do it because it would be such a major thing for tourists.’’ Mayor Helen Patsikatheodorou said the award-winning events had brought residents together. ‘‘[SunFest’s] organising committee produced an event in 2015 that delivered colour and excitement to the town centre,’’ she said.

About 100 Sunbury workers could lose their jobs after Woolworths said it may off-load all its Masters hardware stores. A Woolworths spokeswoman said there were close to 100 employees in a mix of full-time, part-time and casual roles at the Vineyard Road store. The company last week said it was going to either sell or wind up its home improvement business, which includes Masters. Woolworths chairman Gordon Cairns said it was forced to make the hard decision to exit the chain as it would take “many years” for Masters to become profitable. “We intend to pursue an orderly prospective sale or wind-up of the business,” he said. He said the process would take at least two months to complete. A “potential sale process or other exit process will take additional time,” Mr Cairns said. The company spokeswoman said the Sunbury store would remain open as normal for ‘‘some months to come’’. ‘‘How we exit, which will either be through the sale process or a wind-up process, has yet to be decided,’’ she said. ‘‘If Woolworths is unable to sell all of the business and has to close any of the operations, it will seek to provide alternative employment opportunities within the Woolworths group to all current home improvement employees.’’

Meanwhile, Hume’s citizen of the year award has been won by Tullamarine’s Esme Pigott, 99, who established the suburb’s community house in 1989 and still serves on its committee. The young citizen of the year award went to Nisal Lochana Karawita, 18, a Gladstone Park Secondary College graduate who volunteers

for groups that support young people in Broadmeadows. This year’s 40th annual SunFest will be held from March 18-20. The Macedon Ranges award winners will be announced on Australia Day. Updates: www.starweekly.com.au

Stroke of knowledge By Matt Crossman A Sunbury resident who watched her father-in-law have to re-learn basic activities after a stroke is spreading a life-saving message for the Stroke Foundation. Chris Heyes has been visiting community groups across Hume for six years to deliver her warnings and encouragement. She urges her audiences to learn the signs of the preventable but often fatal affliction that affects one in six people. ‘‘Sadly, too many people don’t understand what a stroke is and what they can do to potentially avoid having one,’’ Ms Heyes said. Strokes occur when blood flow to the brain is interrupted. They can be fatal or cause permanent or temporary disability. The risk of brain damage increases the longer they remain untreated. Symptoms include facial and arm weakness and difficulty talking. Risk factors range from age and family history to smoking, diabetes, high blood pressure and cholesterol, obesity and excessive drinking. Ms Heyes decided to become a StrokeSafe ambassador after her fit and active father-in-law was struck down in his 70s. ‘‘It was so sudden,’’ she said. ‘‘He was never able to regain his ability to communicate. It was hard for him … it was hard for everybody. ‘‘Volunteering in this role is something that’s extremely important to me.’’ Ms Heyes is one of a growing number of ambassadors who can be booked by community groups for a StrokeSafe talk. ‘‘[It’s] a great way to learn lifesaving stroke prevention and awareness messages and, most importantly, how to recognise the signs of stroke.’’ Details: 1300 194 196 or www. strokefoundation.com.au

Police are seeking information about an assault at a popular Sunbury swimming hole.

Hume council has called for more schools to be built in its growth suburbs, including Sunbury. Mayor Helen Patsikatheodorou welcomed state government plans for a new school at Newbury, a Craigieburn neighbourhood, but said areas of Sunbury, Greenvale and Mickleham also needed new schools to cater for rapid population growth. The number of primary school-age children in Hume is expected to grow 65 per cent by 2035.

Salvos swamped by calls for aid By Matt Crossman Cost-of-living increases and back-to-school expenses have forced growing numbers of Sunbury and Macedon Ranges families to seek help from support agencies. Charities have reported that more families asked for assistance in 2015 than in any previous year, and early indications are that the trend will continue. Household gas prices are expected to rise between five and eight per cent this year, while the cost of public transport, car registration

and postage all went up on January 1. Sunbury Salvation Army’s Auxiliary Lieutenant Andrew Webb said people on low incomes or those out of work were again being asked to do more with less. ‘‘Post-Christmas is a particularly tough time for many,’’ he said. ‘‘We’ve had 50-60 clients just this year.’’ The Salvos offer emergency relief in the form of vouchers, food parcels and referrals to financial counselling and other services. More than 270 Sunbury cases were handled in the final six months of last year.

A typical Australian family … will lose up to - Lisa Chesters $15,000

’’

Bendigo Labor MP Lisa Chesters has warned that the pressure on parents of students is going to get worse, with the federal government axing the schoolkids’ bonus from next year. The bonus gives eligible families $430 for every primary school child and $856 for every child in secondary school.

‘‘The scrapped scheme means a typical Australian family with two kids in school will lose up to $15,000 over the course of their children’s schooling,’’ Ms Chesters said. ‘‘Local families simply can’t afford to pay any extra, leaving our schools and children worse off.’’ Mr Webb urged anyone finding themselves struggling to meet basic needs to seek immediate help rather than go into debt. ‘‘It’s better if we can intervene early,’’ he said. ‘‘It’s much easier to keep people on track than it is to recover people who have gone way off.’’ Details: 9744 2095

Evenings training under car lights that barely cut through winter fog will soon be over at Woodend-Hesket Football Netball Club. Power to the club’s netball courts at Gilbert Gordon Oval will be upgraded, in part thanks to a $10,000 grant provided by car maker Holden last week. Club president Stuart Braddy said 80 metres of trenched wiring would link the court’s light poles with the change rooms, ending netballers’ reliance on a fickle generator. ‘‘Woodend is dark after 5.15pm in the winter … many training sessions have been held using headlights from cars parked around the court.”

Step in the right direction Whether it’s ballroom or rap, dancing is a great way to express yourself through body movements. And, for parents, dance is a great way to focus children’s physical prowess and social skills. Enrolling your child in a dance course could be just what they need – and here is why: 1. Social skills: Many dance schools work towards a yearly performance or show. For a group routine to look its best, children must work together and co-operate. For children who lack social skills, dance classes teach team work, develop trust and co-operation between performers, and help youngsters become confident and make new friends. Dance can also help overcome the fear of performing in front of an audience.

2. Educational benefits: Dancing takes practice, discipline and focus – skills needed in all aspects of life. Some dance schools have yearly exams, with children required to work through a syllabus and practice hard for months before demonstrating their skills to examiners. Dance exams can help students with the discipline needed for their academic tests. 3. Physical health: Dancing is a highly physical pursuit, and can increase stamina, strength and flexibility. It can also improve co-ordination and balance, correct poor posture and increase cardiovascular health. Eleanor Tabone

If ever a property had ‘active retiree’ written all over it, this is it. Built in the days when a 13-square footprint wasn’t uncommon, the house is small enough for minimal upkeep, but big enough to have family stay, while the immaculate block of about 700 square metres allows scope for further gardens, fruit trees and vegie patches, as well as play space for littlies. Black plantation shutters and grey roman blinds provide contemporary accents to white wall paint in the living zone, while the well-designed, storage-rich kitchen is open to a breakfast room. Three bedrooms share a fresh, updated bathroom. Pretty gardens, a large covered pergola, a Colorbond shed (concrete and power) and a carport with roller door finish a place that will also pique the interest of first-home buyers.

This place has a special charm that reveals it as well-loved, and designed with the pell-mell of family life in mind. An example of this is the big rumpus room (or office) taking out the top floor, away from family noise. Terracotta-toned floor tiles line the big family-meals zone, at the end of which is a smart kitchen with mid-grey cabinetry and quality stainless-steel dishwasher and 900mm cooker. There’s also a separate, carpeted lounge room. The four bedrooms include the main with an en suite with spa. Gas hydronic heating throughout tames Woodend winters, and hot water is solar boosted. Rustic brick pathways, trimmed hedging defining a brick-paved courtyard, pretty gardens and a detached double carport are part of this perky package, and it’s all within a walk of shops, schools and the V/Line station.

19 SUNBURY & MACEDON RANGES STAR WEEKLY \ JANUARY 26, 2016

SPORT Leaders aim even higher By Tara Murray Diggers Rest Bulla is yet to put together the perfect game, despite sitting on top of the table in Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s McIntyre Cup. In their first season back in the top grade, the Burras have been one of the two dominant sides in the competition, along with Riddell. Burras coach Kevin Barker said his side was yet to put it all together. “I still don’t think we have played the perfect game yet,” he said. “It’s encouraging, as we still have more to give. Hopefully, we can have the full performance towards the end the of the season.” Barker said the side wouldn’t be taking the foot off the pedal in the lead-up to finals, with every team still able to make the top four. “We want to win every game for rest of the year,” he said. “We don’t want to just win a few games thinking we’ll just finish in the top two. “There’s still a lot of cricket to be played; the job isn’t done yet.” On Saturday, the Burras took the upper hand in the top-of-the-table clash with Riddell, bowling out Riddell for 115. “It was a really good result,” Barker said. “They were 3-86 just before tea and we were staring down the barrel of a big score.” But then Riddell collapsed, losing 7-29. Opener Brendan Alger top-scored with 49. “Getting two wickets just before tea was a big key,” Barker said. “We knew we had to make sure we were switched on after tea and, to our credit, we were great with the ball and in the field.” Darren Quarrell took five wickets. The Burras will resume on day two at 2-19, after losing Kane Shaw (7) and Rhys Berry (1). In other matches, Woodend made 225 against Sunbury United. Daniel Eastley made 79, while James Hughes took 5-75. Rain saw a delayed start to Sunbury and Bacchus Marsh’s match. Only 42 overs could be bowled and it was a hard slog for Bacchus Marsh. Sent in, Bacchus Marsh finished the day at 3-32. Sunbury captain Jason McGann took 2-18 off his 16 overs, while Heath Boffey bowled tightly, taking 0-4 off 13 overs. In the other game, Romsey made 156 against Gisborne. The Dragons are 2-26 in reply.

GDCA

East Sunbury’s good form with the ball continued, bowling out Rupertswood for 112 in the Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s B-grade competition. Jake Doyle and Jack Dillon were the stars with the ball, taking three wickets each. The Thunder faced seven tough overs at the end of the day, and will resume at 1-2. Ashfield is 1-10, chasing Wallan’s 134; Macedon made 236 against Bacchus Marsh; while Lancefield made 243 against St Anthonys.

CHBD

Gisborne bounced back from its first loss of the season with victory over Bacchus Marsh in the Central Highlands Bowls Division. The ladder leaders defeated Bacchus Marsh 94 (14) - 85 (4). Their nearest competitor, Kyneton Golf Gold, also won, scoring 102 (14) – 87 (4) for their victory over Lancefield. Woodend scooped the points against Romsey, 115 (18) 68 (0), while Kyneton remains in touch with the top four after its win over Kyneton Golf Blue, 121 (16) – 71 (2).

When it went into the A-grade finals of the Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s 1985-86 season, Macedon wasn’t meant to come out as a winner. Having finished in the lower half of the top four in what was then called top grade, Macedon had to beat Romsey to even make the grand final. While it bowled its opponent out for not much, Macedon struggled to get its own runs, just managing to sneak through to the grand final. There it faced Bacchus Marsh and the challenge of trying to break a 19-year premiership drought. Then vice-captain, now-playing club secretary, John Ewels recalls that the grand final was also a low-scoring match. “We were the underdogs, having finished third or fourth, and all the other teams in the finals had big-name players. “We batted first against Bacchus Marsh and didn’t get a lot of runs. But we did have runs on the board, and they had to chase them. “Bowling was our strength. Captain Kinnear Beatson took five wickets late on day two of the match to give us the game.”

The premiership, now 30 years ago, is still the most recent for the club in the competition’s top grade. Macedon has won premierships in lower divisions, but this one remains the most recent in what’s now known at the McIntyre Cup. The 1985-86 season wasn’t all highs for the club, though. President John Clifford dying during a match. “He had a heart attack while playing for the thirds, and it was big shock to everyone,” Ewels said. “Everyone at the association knew him; he was a bit of a legend. “His death was a big motivation for us to win the flag. We spent a lot of time at his grave the night of winning the premiership.” Every member of the premiership side will be at the club on Saturday for a reunion. They will watch the club’s second XI play then go out for dinner. “We’ve managed to contact them all and it was the only date we could get everyone here,” Ewels said. “Kinnear, Chris Climas and Graeme Dodkins have worked really hard to organise the day … I’m looking forward to a few tales on the night.” Tara Murray

Twenty Calder Cannons’ players have been named in the initial 65-girl Victoria Metro Youth Girls squad for this year’s AFL national youth girls’ championship, to be held in early May. The squad names released last week include Mernda’s Deanna Berry, Sunbury Lions’ Madison Prespakis, Molly Hemburrow, Felicity Theodore and Stacey Smith, Yarrambat’s Marnie Jarvis and Epping’s Alexandra Pronesti. Gisborne’s Eshe Lane and Kyneton’s Alicia Rooth were both named in the initial Victorian Country squad for the championships.

GDCA

The Gisborne and District Cricket Association is the Bendigo Country Week division 1 champion. With wet weather washing out the final, and without a ball being bowled, the GDCA was named champion due to having more points and a greater percentage over its opponents, the Ferntree Gully and District Cricket Association. The GDCA won all four of its matches during the week to qualify for the division 1 final. The association’s division 1 win comes on top if its win in division 2 last year.

Star turnout unites kids By Tara Murray Melbourne United basketball star Chris Goulding was king of the kids at a Sunbury Basketball Association clinic. The coaching panel at the two-day clinic included former Olympian Jenni Screen, WNBL stars and New Zealand’s women’s coach Kennedy Kereama, but it was Goulding everyone wanted to see. After working with different age groups last week, Goulding said it was gratifying to get the sort of reaction he did at Sunbury. “Melbourne United has really taken off and we are playing some good basketball on the court and getting good crowds,” he said at the clinic. “Obviously, a lot of the crowds we get are kids like we see today. “To come back to their environment to see how they are and get the reaction we do is pretty cool. It makes it all worthwhile when you come out and they recognise me or the team or some of my teammates.” Goulding said he and Screen stressed to the children that they were once in the same spot as they are. “We were in their shoes and all the players in the NBA and NBL were in their shoes, too,” he said. “It’s about enjoying it and having some fun, and knowing we all started this way … if they love the game anything is possible.” On court, Goulding’s focus is a premiership tilt with top-of-the-table United and then trying to make the Boomers team for the Olympics. “We’ve had a successful year so far to this stage,” he said. “The tough stuff starts in the next month or so. We’ve been getting good crowds and playing good basketball, so hopefully that translates into the finals.”

Sunbury win never in doubt Sunbury had no trouble accounting for bottom side Moonee Valley (2) in Bowls Victoria division 2, section 2. In a battle between the top and bottom sides, Sunbury won 93 (18) – 63 (0) to maintain a nine-point lead at the top of the table. Sunbury’s Dave Glennon said the win was never in doubt with all four rinks in front all day. Mark Cowan continued his sensational form, with his rink winning 28-9, following a 25-9 win the week before. Carla Krizanic won 21-18, Deeon Dean won 22-20, while Brad Willoughby won 22-16. “We were pretty much in control, even though three of the rinks were reasonably close,” Glennon said. “It was a pretty slow track due to the rain.” Cowan, the only player to skip every week, has now won 10 out of the 12 rounds. Krizanic has won her rink all seven weeks she has played. Sunbury will be back to full strength this week, making for another difficult week at the selection table. They face Broadmeadows at Sunbury on Saturday. “It is first versus fifth, so a win for them is crucial as they are a game-and-a-half outside the four. Hopefully, we can get another good win,” Glennon said. The top side is one of three for Sunbury on top spot on the ladder with five rounds to go. Sunbury’s third and fifth teams head the ladders in their sections also.
