Nathan, Mitch and Ben Wright all posted half centuries to lead Robertson/Burrawang to a big first innings total at Lackey Park.
The side sat in a dominant position when stumps were drawn in its first grade clash with Hill Top.
Robertson/Burrawang batted first and compiled an imposing 356 runs in its first innings.
Opener Ben Wright led the way with 88, while Nathan (72) and Mitch (56) provided support.
Aaron de Jager also scored 32 and Matt Arnold shared a 100-run partnership with Mitch Wright.
In reply, Hill Top lost in-form opener Cam Arlington before the end of play on Saturday.
Robertson/Burrawang captain Nathan Wright said he was pleased with his team's batting performance.
"I was pretty happy after we were sent in to bat," he said.
"We thought there would be a little bit in it (the pitch)."
However, Wright wasn't completely happy with Robertson's total.
"We still lost wickets in clumps... we need to work on batting in partnerships," he said.
Robertson will head into play on day two without key bowlers Mitch Wright and James Hart.
Nathan Wright said Robertson would need to work hard on Saturday.
"The pitch didn't too many tricks for us and Hill Top has some good batsmen left," he said.
