Mr Gardner said a daily dose of oil and grease helped his mullet stand out.

“Being a diesel fitter (my hair) loves getting bathed in oil and grease,” he said.

“When I’m not at work it spends most of its time oily.”

Mr Gardner’s hairstyle came about as a matter of convenience.

“It mainly started because I cut my own hair and couldn’t reach the back,” he said.

Malak’s Josh Joyce and Woolner’s Justin Peek rounded out the podium.
