Have it scanned for codes. Our reference resource doesn't list Holdens, but we'll do our best.
Make sure it's getting spark and has fuel pressure.

Often these will have a crank angle sensor problem, do as last post suggests and get a scan done, also fuel pumps are an issue these cars do not like running with low fuel levels, they will over heat fuel pumps easily, you should hear the pump cycle with the key on, there is a special tool required to disconnect the fuel rail to test flow.
