Macedon hang on

Century makers: No wonder Woodend Cricket Club's senior coach Josh Eastley (at left) and First XI captain Marcus Stewart were in a happy frame of mind on Saturday. Eastley had just top scored for his side with a fine 116 against Sunbury Kangaroos, and Stewart was still being bombarded with congratulations on his record unbeaten 152 for Gisborne District Cricket Association at Melbourne Country Week. The GDCA won two matches, and lost two at Country Week, with Ballarat going on to win the final on Friday. Eastley said he was pleased how Woodend's top side was progressing two matches out from the finals. "It was good that some of our down the list players spent time making runs today, and 311 was pleasing at this time of the season. "We hope to remain on top of the ladder, but are not taking anything for granted," he added.
