Adrian McRoss appeared via a video link from prison at the Ballarat Magistrates' Court on Thursday where he made an in-person bail application and sought a sentence indication.

The court was told three police officers attended McRoss' address on December 26 in relation to a welfare check on a woman, who he allegedly reported had been gang raped and held hostage in Mount Egerton.

When asked about the incident, McRoss allegedly threatened the police officers and ordered them off his property.

Police allege on January 7, McRoss phoned the police a number of times to make false reports about his wife being held hostage.

When police arrived at McRoss' address, the accused allegedly came out of his caravan in an aggressive manner and verbally abused the officers.

McRoss is accused of kicking a police vehicle and threatening and verbally abusing officers on another occasion.

The court was told one officer thought he was going to be assaulted when McRoss allegedly advanced towards him in a rage and dribbling saliva.

He has been charged with ramming the Creswick Police Station gates causing significant damage, hoon driving at Mount Egerton and ramming his vehicle through a person's fence at Gordon.

Police located McRoss' vehicle at Creswick's Shell service station with damage consistent to the ramming at the Creswick Police Station, police allege.

Victoria Police critical response team was called in to arrest McRoss.

Magistrate Letizia Torres indicated she would sentence McRoss to a combination sentence of six months' imprisonment followed by a community corrections order, which would include treatment, if he pleaded guilty.

McRoss said the indication was not acceptable before saying he had been in custody for more than five months and if he accepted the indication, he could appeal and be released from custody.

"The whole prosecution brief is made up of lies," McRoss said.

To support his bail application, McRoss said he had accommodation at St Albans, prospects of employment and a three-and-a-half-month-old baby.

He said he would voluntarily put himself in a psychiatric ward if he was bailed.

Police prosecutor Sergeant Steve Kent submitted McRoss was an unacceptable risk of re-offending and a risk of endangering the safety of the community and police members.

Ms Torres said she had no option but to adjourn the bail application until next month when she will have access to all of the evidence, including police witness statements.

McRoss was remanded in custody until June 9.
