KANGAROO Flat is chasing a third win in a row when it faces the BBD's biggest challenge on Saturday, Bendigo East.
The reigning premier Beasties are the competition's only undefeated team after five rounds, with all their wins so far having been by double-figure shots.
Kangaroo Flat, whose recruits include former Bendigo East premiership skipper David Keenan, are coming off a pair of wins over Castlemaine (22 shots) and Inglewood (36) in its past two games.
The Flat has had six of its eight rinks up over the past two rounds and will need a consistent performance from all four on Saturday if it's to take down the might of Bendigo East, which has lost just once in its past 21 games.
As well as East (1st) and the Flat (4th), Eaglehawk (2nd) and South Bendigo (3rd) are also in the top four.
