Sunbury’s finals hopes in the Victorian Turf Cricket Association division 3 suffered a setback on Saturday.
Sitting just outside the top four, Sunbury was keen to get the points and put the pressure on the top sides against Glenroy.
The Roar had a poor day one, bowled out for just 85. Only two players of the top six scored double figures, with Lachlan Treweek top scoring with 20 after opening the batting.
Glenroy resumed at 5-45 after a tough period late on day one.
Glenroy managed to get the runs bowled out for 113 in their 71st over.
Jason McGann, who had three wickets on day one of the match, finished with four wickets, while Brad Hunter finished with three.
The Roar then had to go out for bat.
It was another poor performance with the side in trouble at 6-65 when the match ended.
Treweek top scored with 15.
The Roar remains in fifth position but they are now nine points outside the top four with three two-day matches left.
The Roar this round face top side Grand United.
Meanwhile, the last of the T20 finalists have been decided.

The Roar will be joined in the next round by Gellibrand, PEGS, West Coburg, Sydenham-Hillside, Jacana, Yarraville Club, Sunshine, the Druids, Werribee Centrals, Point Cook, Maribyrnong Park St Marys, Sanctuary Lakes, Deer Park and St Francis de Sales.
