If memory serves the Gallipoli campaign ended in January 1916 so if the October 1915 order did include Rising Suns that wouldn’t leave much time to get them out there, not impossible but unlikely I’d say.
Others will hopefully have more information on these.

Hi Luke
As far as I know the last Diggers left Anzac on or about 20th December 1915, certainly not in 1916.
