It’s where global superstars and homegrown heroes go to compete - heroes such as Allora’s Matthew Denny.

Matthew performed well with a throw of 68.17 giving him a comfortable win in the discus event.

2nd placegetter was Lawrence Okoye, Great Britain at 64.60m and 3rd Connor Bell of New Zealand at 62.14m.

Last September In Bruxelles Matthew threw his PB of 69.96m.

Matthew is now aiming for the magic 70m and we’re backing him to do it this year.
