A tribute in fields of red

(Joe Mastroianni)

From a distance, Altona’s Logan Reserve seems to be blooming with poppies. But a closer look reveals thousands of poppies that have been crocheted, knitted and cut from felt. The project commemorates the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing and is a labour of love by the Country Women’s Association’s Altona Evening branch. Sharon Walsh, a driving force behind the Pier Street Poppy Project, said it was a flow-on from the 5000 Poppies initiative that had crafters from around Australia sending poppies to be “planted” at Federation Square on Anzac Day. “The general consensus was that we should honour our soldiers in our hometown,” Ms Walsh said. “Our CWA ladies started knitting and crocheting. A call was sent out to our community and mums, nans, neighbours and friends began contributing to our project. “Red wool became scarce, but over lots of cups of tea, 2000 poppies were made. The installation on Logan Reserve has been admired by many; photos have been sent to the USA, Japan and Germany.” The project was also entered in Hobsons Bay’s Art in Public Places program and is on display all month.

Rates fund big-ticket plans By Benjamin Millar Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay councils have each flagged rate rises on residential properties of less than four per cent. A new Footscray community hub, redeveloping Little Saigon, a makeover for Nicholson Street Mall and rejuvenating the Maribyrnong River foreshore are all on the agenda for Maribyrnong council’s 2015-16 budget, which was voted on last night. A proposed $140 million budget would use funds from a 3.7 per cent rate rise – down from the 4.7 per cent rise last year and inclusive of a two per cent infrastructure levy – to carry out

some of the $55 million of city works which have been backlogged for several years. The rise would help collect $87.7 million in rates and charges towards a $48.7 million spend on capital works and infrastructure, including $8.6 million on open space and parks, $7.5 million on roads and $3.3 million on footpath and bicycle networks. Meanwhile, Hobsons Bay council has flagged a 3.8 per cent residential rate rise as part of its rating strategy, ahead of releasing its draft 2015-16 budget next week. (Last year’s rates averaged 4.8 per cent.) Also proposed are rate rises of 6.8 per cent on residential vacant land, 3.61 per cent

on commercial properties, 4.29 per cent on industrial properties, 6.8 per cent on industrial premises, and 4.48 per cent for cultural and recreational uses. These figures could change. Charges for garbage, recycling, garden waste and hard waste in Hobsons Bay have been decreased 17 per cent as a result of waste contract negotiations and the refunding to ratepayers of $650,000 collected by the scrapped carbon tax. In Maribyrnong, the biggest single spend is $5.4 million towards a new multi-deck carpark, retail and open space in Footscray’s Little Saigon. Other big-ticket items include $1.5 million on a new Footscray Community Hub incorporating Footscray library and

$1.4 million on improving the Nicholson Street mall. The council has allocated $800,000 for the Maribyrnong Rivers Edge project, $500,000 for Pipemakers Park and $300,000 towards an East Meets West welcoming archway in Footscray. Maribyrnong council also earmarks $530,000 for festivals, $500,000 for tree planting, $350,000 each for two early learning centres, and $200,000 for town hall refurbishments. A budget information session will be held at Maribyrnong Town Hall from 6.30pm, April 29. The budget is open for comment for 28 days. - with Goya Dmytryshchak

Cop patrols step up after killing By Goya Dmytryshchak Police will step up patrols in Altona Meadows in the wake of a fatal shooting on Sunday morning. Khaled Abouhasna, a father of six, was gunned down outside his mother’s Lewin Court home shortly before 2am. The 39-year-old from Altona Meadows, who also used the name Karl Kay, had just pulled into the driveway. Multiple shots were fired as he got out of the car. Detectives have confirmed he was known to police.

The homicide squad’s Detective Sergeant Sol Solomon said there were no witnesses to the shooting, but neighbours had heard screeching tyres as a car sped away. “At this stage, we have no suspects we’ve identified,” he said. “The investigators are following up all leads.” He said the victim appeared to have been ambushed in a “targeted attack”, but he would not say whether the killing was related to criminal gangs or connected to known underworld figures. Residents said they heard six shots, which they initially thought to be fireworks.

A woman whose young son was sleeping over at his father’s house in the same street said it wasn’t until the third shot that her son’s father realised it wasn’t fireworks. Like several residents, she said believing it was a targeted attack made her feel safer. “If it was random, then it could be any street, any suburb, any town,” said the woman, who asked not to be named. “Yes, it is sad that someone lost a son, a father, a brother, a friend, but when you hear that person is known to police, it does make it easier to know that it wasn’t a random attack.” Hobsons Bay’s Inspector Michelle Young

said police were mindful of the impact on people’s feelings of safety. “Police will be maintaining a visible presence in the community,” she said. As news of his death spread, friends paid tribute to a “kind and gentle” man who touched many lives. They also posted his image on social media, including a picture of Mr Abouhasna with former Bandido bikie Toby Mitchell. Underworld sources have confirmed the men were close associates. Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. with The Age

But Biggin & Scott real estate agent Tristan Tomasino said the new owner bought the property as an investment and had no intention of redeveloping the site. “The new owner loved the façade and the proportions of the building. They’re going to keep the Dancing Dog Café on and upstairs will be staying on as well, so it’s really good for the community.” Mr Tomasino said the building was sold for “just above” the $1.575 million final bid.

Footscray’s Dancing Dog Cafe tenants have welcomed the sale of the heritage building on Saturday to an investor with no immediate intentions to redevelop the site. About 200 people turned out for the auction of the iconic Albert Street building, with three bidders entering the fray after an opening bid of $1.3 million. Bidding reached $1.575 million before the property was passed in short of its reserve, later selling to the highest bidder for an undisclosed sum. Interest in the property from residential developers had raised fears the property could be taken out of community use, spurring a

Footscray’s skyline is back in Maribyrnong council’s hands following a state government decision to relinquish planning powers over the area. Planning Minister Richard Wynne has responded to calls to return planning control for Footscray’s CBD and riverside Joseph Road precinct as part of an amendment to the council’s planning scheme. The council and former Napthine government came to loggerheads over a number of controversial planning permits issued by former planning minister Matthew Guy, including a 28-storey high-rise tower that will overshadow the Maribyrnong River. Planning ministers have had the final say on all new development in the area since the council handed the powers to the then state Labor government in 2007. Maribyrnong mayor Nam Quach welcomed the return of the powers, noting the council had objected to about 90 per cent of the “overzealous” projects approved by Mr Guy. “We need to look at a more sustainable approach. We want to make sure the infrastructure is keeping up with the development and that the design is suitable.” Cr Quach said the main difference would be in stronger height restrictions and protections around the Maribyrnong River. The Planning Minister has retained control over a handful of key sites, including the Paint Spot site at 26-34 Buckley Street and governmentowned sites such as the former Le Mans Toyota land at 4 Hopkins Street.

Backlash against gateway units By Benjamin Millar Residents have vowed to fight alongside Maribyrnong council against a 44-apartment development near Yarraville Village. VCAT has set a four-day hearing for June to consider developer Mahercorp’s proposal for the corner of Anderson and Fehon streets, which was knocked back by the council. The three-storey building would contain 21 one-bed and 23 two-beds units, with 44 parking spaces. The developer has sought a waiver of nine visitor spaces, arguing there

is sufficient public transport and on-street parking in the area to cater for demand. Residents claim parking is already an issue in the area and are calling on Maribyrnong council to carry out a “robust” traffic and parking study to guide future development in the area. A resident, who attended a VCAT mention on Friday and asked not to be named, said the plans had attracted about 80 formal objections. “Everyone is aligned with the council in terms of refusing the development and any removal of or encroaching on … heritage

trees.” He said putting 44 apartments on three residential blocks would have an unacceptable impact on parking and traffic, and there remained a long list of areas where the proposal failed to meet design standards. A town planning submission by Rothe Lowman Architects on behalf of Mahercorp argues the 2440-square-metre site “provides an ideal setting for an elegantly proportioned residential development” in keeping with the zoning and local character. “The prominence of the corner site provides the opportunity to create a refined architectural

response as the western gateway to Yarraville’s greater retail and commercial precinct. “The proposed development will assist in creating a strong benchmark for future developments in the area.” An arborist’s report for the developer noted all trees on the site would be removed, including a healthy 16-metre English oak tree estimated to be 50 years old. VCAT’s decision is expected to be made by early July. ■ VCAT

Eco future for ‘eyesore’ In 2000, the community campaigned to save the site from sale to developers and the council was appointed to manage the site. Preservation society president Jack Hallowell said the masterplan had been a long time coming. “It went back to government departments twice. After three years it lapses so you’ve got to go again. It’s part of Altona’s history. It closed in 1962 and has been fallow since then.” Due to the reserve being closed off to people, flora and fauna have flourished. The site hosts three bird species of state significance (nankeen night heron, white-bellied sea eagle and brown quail), three bat species and 56 animal species of which 79 per cent are indigenous. Its industrial heritage structures include the keeper’s residence, remnants of the tramline and the perimeter galvanised iron fence. Goya Dmytryshchak

Moves are under way to have Truganina Explosives Reserve, established in the late 1800s, placed on the Victorian Heritage Register. Previously described as an “eyesore” and once earmarked by a former government for development, the 16.5 hectares of Crown land in Altona has been described by Hobsons Bay council as a treasure that could become a destination for eco-tourism. The council last week released a masterplan for the reserve, which supports a nomination by the Truganina Explosives Reserve Preservation Society to preserve the land’s industrial heritage and environmental values. From 1901-1962, explosives from a Deer Park factory were transported to the site and stored in magazines. Explosives would then be taken from the reserve by a tramline to the pier and loaded onto ships.

All at sea over voting By Goya Dmytryshchak A weather observer stationed on a remote island 450 kilometres off Cairns cast his vote for Williamstown’s Labor MP with a message in a bottle. The Australian Bureau of Meteorology’s Colin Blobel sealed his voting papers in a glass bottle and threw it into the Coral Sea from the coast of Willis Island. The vote was actually cast after November’s state election, but it was Mr Blobel’s way of protesting about being unable to vote, unlike observers and researchers in Antarctica. He is one of four weather observers working at a weather station which acts as an early-warning centre for developing cyclones. Willis Island is too remote to receive regular mail deliveries and too small to have a polling booth. In Antarctica, the electoral commission selects one person to act as an electoral officer and they distribute the ballot papers and return results to the mainland via satellite. However, the commission believes that because there are only four people on Willis Island, there is great risk the electoral officer would know who everyone voted for. Mr Blobel’s voting papers were accompanied by a note directing that the bottle be sent to the Victorian Electoral Commissioner and Williamstown MP Wade Noonan. The bottle bobbed in the sea until the currents carried it to Sunken Reef Bay on Hinchinbrook Island, about 240 kilometres south of Cairns. It was found by picnickers Rob and Kelly Schmidt, who immediately

followed Mr Blobel’s instructions. Despite Mr Blobel’s vote not counting, it was warmly received by Mr Noonan. “This demonstrates how far some people will go to exercise their democratic right

to vote,” he said. “The casting of a vote by bottle is probably one of the more unusual stories I’ve seen during my time in politics. I don’t think I’ll be calling for a recount, but I’m humbled by Mr Blobel’s support.”

Panel to review town centre bid Maribyrnong council has moved to quash fears about the rapid redevelopment of a new ‘town centre’ near Highpoint shopping centre. Star Weekly last week reported the council wants to rezone industrial and commercial land around Highpoint to expand the shopping centre and build about 2500 new apartments based on estimated development demand to the year 2045. Amendment C135 proposes a new town centre with a mixed retail, bulky goods and residential precinct for Rosamond Road. Council chief executive Stephen Wall said the figures were estimates and not current applications before the council. “They are, instead, a 30-year economic estimate of what demand for space may exist for the entire area in the future,” he said. “These changes are yet to be adopted by council.” An independent panel is preparing a report on the C135 proposal, which will be considered by the council before passing to the minister for final consideration. Mr Wall said the council had nominated its preferred building height range for the Highpoint precinct of between three and 10 storeys to balance development and neighbourhood character. Height limits have already been criticised by developers, who want closer to 20 storeys in some places. Benjamin Millar

Permit needed, for better or worse By Goya Dmytryshchak Hobsons Bay council is launching a delicate campaign to stop couples getting married at Williamstown Botanic Gardens without permits. Infrastructure and city services director Sherry Clarke said the council would use a combination of education and enforcement to deter weddings being conducted without couples having paid up to $355 for permits. Cr Angela Altair said that on April 12 two weddings were held without permits.

“It’s very annoying because … those who do the right thing, are paying their fees and then you’ve got these people coming along and claiming innocence,” Cr Altair said. “But my understanding is one of the celebrants was a very well-known identity who should have known better. “I wonder if we could also have some sort of database of local civil celebrants … we should let them know about the rules because both celebrants [on April 12] claimed they didn’t know they had to pay which, sounds a bit disingenous to me.

“We should read the riot act to them, quite frankly.” She said council officers always tried to act sensitively in these situations and did not want to ruin a couple’s special day. Celebrant Kim Walsh said he always advised couples that a permit was needed for a wedding at the gardens, Commonwealth Reserve Rotunda, Newport Lakes or Truganina Wetlands, but he said the ultimate responsibility lay with them. “It is not the celebrant’s responsibility to obtain a permit – that is up to the couple,” he

said. “On a number of occasions, weddings have clashed – for example, if I’ve got a 2 o’clock wedding at the Golden Elm [in the botanic gardens] and there’s another wedding on the Sunset Lawn, which is 20 metres as the crow flies.” He suggested the council put up reserved signs at the four garden locations if weddings were scheduled there. “I’ve rocked up at the Golden Elm and there are people having a picnic there,” Mr Walsh said. “All you have to do is get someone to say, ‘Stiff bikkies, I’m not moving’.”

A zest for life at 101 Albanian-born Altona Meadows resident, Letfije Memishi, last Thursday celebrated her 101st birthday at a party hosted by Benetas aged care service provider. Mrs Memishi was born in the village of Ostrec and came to Australia in 1964. She lost her husband Feta in 1946 after the turmoil of WWII and raised their three children, Sajat, Sherin and Mustafa with support from her close family. She moved to Australia with her youngest son, Mustafa, and they initially lived in Footscray with her oldest son, Sajat, who had moved to Australia in 1960. Mrs Memishi lives independently at home with her grandson, Rahman, and attends Benetas’ Bateman House day respite program in Williamstown six days a week. She attributes her longevity to her beliefs, praying five times a day, healthy eating, always keeping busy and, most importantly,

family love and care. Benetas’ Mary Meilak described Mrs Memishi as an amazing lady with a real zest for life. “Letfije gets involved in all we do here at Benetas Bateman House,” she said. “She is very grateful for everything and always puts others before herself; I think that comes from being a great great-grandmother.” Mrs Memishi is the proud grandmother of 14, great grandmother of 20 and great great-grandmother of nine.

The silent history of war’s impact on women is being unveiled in a Footscray exhibition. The Women Wept exhibition, by artists Karenne Anne, Tamara Watt and Heather Horrocks, explores the terrible toll war takes on women left at home. Ms Horrocks said when men perished overseas or returned broken in mind and body, women were there to pick up the pieces. “We honour the men who died overseas, but lots of men came back injured and with shell shock; it was up to the women to look after them.” The FAIR [Footscray Arts Industry Resources] project is in two parts, the first focusing on research, including objects and memorabilia, the second on grief and grieving. Ms Horrocks said the project involved gathering anecdotes from many different women. They include a story from a woman who recalled her mother taking her to the movies every Friday night as a child. She later learned that Fridays were the nights her father would drink heavily to forget what he had seen on the warfront. “War is a terrible thing, but we keep doing it. It ricochets and echoes right through the generations – we need to honour the loss and grief on the largely silent victims as well.” As part of the project, Ms Horrocks will be

Women Wept has been funded under the federal government’s Anzac Centenary Local Grants Program. The exhibition can be viewed by appointment at Ercildoune, 66 Napier Street, Footscray.

Still filling in the blanks of loss By Goya Dmytryshchak An Anzac project launched on Sunday will delve into the history behind 265 Diggers from Williamstown who did not return home from WWI. In 1917, Williamstown councillor Bill (William) Henderson gave an undertaking to collect photographs of each veteran who died for an honour board at Williamstown Town Hall. Now historian Lindy Wallace is collecting the stories behind each face. “Our project – The Sons of Williamstown, A Labour of Love – continues to commemorate the spirit of Cr Henderson’s work,” Ms Wallace said. “Of the 1800-or-so Williamstown men who enlisted, 265 gave their lives. “Those who died were not returned to Australia. They remained in marked and unmarked graves in the countries where they fell. “The need to have somewhere to commemorate sacrifice and loss led to the creation of the memorials and honour boards we see in many Australian towns and cities today,” Ms Wallace said. “In the absence of graves to visit, the listing of names on memorials became, for families, the physical presence of lost loved ones.” Her research has uncovered some of the men’s stories. One is that of Gordon Rankin Inglis, who enlisted as a naval clerk in August 1914 and was wounded in a lung at Gallipoli on April 26,1915. “He’s the only Australian serviceman buried in Danygraig cemetery, Swansea,” Ms Wallace said. “A champion bagpipe player, originally in

the Victorian Scottish Regiment, Gordon was nursed and protected by his mate, who refused to allow him to be taken on to the deck of the hospital ship, which was a precursor to being buried at sea. “A fellow bagpipe player who had befriended him in the Swansea hospital returned especially to play over his grave. The people of Swansea erected a cedar cross and his grave was turfed and planted with spring plantings, of which a photo would be sent to his mother.

‘‘

Those who died were not returned. They remained … - Lindy Wallace where they fell

’’

“In 1920, his grave was visited by a stranger who picked a flower and pressed it to send to Gordon’s mother, along with a photo of the grave.” Other stories include those of Private Brendan Calcutt, a railways timekeeper who enlisted at 19. Calcutt died in December, 1916, while a prisoner of war in Turkey. Then there’s the story of three of the four Chandler brothers, who enlisted together and perished in France, two of them within two months of each other. Or that of naval clerk Geoffrey Gladstones, who enlisted at 22 and was fatally wounded while resting in his dug-out at Polygon Wood, at Ypres, Belgium. As the project progresses, historians will be calling on the Williamstown community to help uncover more Diggers’ stories.

Studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wider focus A young inner-west leader is tackling the complex topic of mental health in AfricanAustralian communities. Victoria University student Tabotu Teklemariam (pictured) co-founded the non-profit organisation Afro-Care to combat the delicate and often taboo subject of mental health in Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s African communities. Ms Teklemariam said the idea for AfroCare was hatched during a 10-week African leadership program for young emerging leaders who discussed problems each community faced. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We focused on mental health. Problems exist in our communities, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so taboo,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s also a negative stigma attached; you canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t come out to your community. Either you are doing well or you are not mentally stable. There is no in-between.â&#x20AC;?

The Flemington high-rise resident said anyone with mental health issues in African communities could become very isolated. The first year of Afro-Care has been an exercise in learning about how to tackle the delicate issue, with solutions being generated from within the communities. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is about creating dialogues, having open discussions,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not right to â&#x20AC;Ś make conclusions. We need our community to help us implement possible solutions.â&#x20AC;? Afro-Care will present an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;African mental health and well-beingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; forum from 6pm-7.30pm on Wednesday at VU at MetroWest, 138 Nicholson Street, Footscray.

NBN ‘rollback’ duds the west By Benjamin Millar Almost 5000 Footscray homes have been quietly struck off the National Broadband Network rollout plan. An April update to the rollout schedule has removed 4800 Footscray premises previously listed as being at the ‘build preparation’ stage for fibre-optic cable. Construction work was originally scheduled to begin by June 2016 but no new date has been set for a return to the preparation stage.

An NBN Co spokesman said a range of factors could contribute to delays once “on the ground” investigations got under way. “Spending public money wisely on a project of the scale of the national broadband network means our rollout plans must be flexible enough to accommodate local factors,” he said. “While there have been some changes to the rollout plan, work to make the NBN available to more than 13,000 premises in Footscray has already been completed or is under way.”

Maribyrnong MP Bill Shorten slammed the delay, also criticising the $600 charge to connect newly built homes to the NBN. “Tony Abbott and Malcolm Turnbull have managed to work together on one thing and that is destruction of the national broadband network,” he said. “They have turned the rollout into a rollback, reverted from fibre-optic technology to archaic copper wire and set our nation’s communications back years.” Mr Shorten said residents of Footscray and Melbourne’s west were “being dudded”.

“Just because we don’t live in a blue ribbon suburb of Sydney shouldn’t mean we miss out on this vital infrastructure,” he said. Gellibrand MP Tim Watts said the community feared being stuck with “a second-rate NBN” that relied on the copper network. “There is a real risk the Abbott government will create two classes of people in Melbourne’s west: those who get the real NBN and those who don’t.” Residents and business operators can check NBN availability at their home or business by visiting www.nbnco.com.au.

Memories up for sale A Newport home known as Rose’s Cottage, because of a little girl who played there, is listed for sale for the first time in 43 years. Rose Eracleous was born next door to Rose’s Cottage in Collingwood Road, where she was raised by her Greek parents who arrived in Australia as immigrants. Her mother, who was pronounced dead when Rose was born but was revived, was often ill in hospital. With her father busy working, Rose would venture next door to play with the couple who lived there, Mr and Mrs Williams. The Williams’ home came to be known by locals as Rose’s Place or Rose’s Cottage. The couple loved Rose so much that in their will they said they wanted her family to have the first option to buy their home because they had so many happy memories of her playing there. Ms Eracleous’s parents eventually did buy the house for $18,000. Now in her 40s, Ms Eracleous has lived in

Rose’s Cottage for 22 years. As a carer for her parents, she is selling up to plan for their future needs. “It’s extremely emotional leaving my home, leaving this beautiful place that I’ve had all my life. Mr and Mrs Williams were wonderful people and it’s just a nice completion for me to know they’re not forgotten.” Village Real Estate has listed Rose’s Cottage for auction at 10.30am on May 2, and it is expected to fetch more than $1.5 million. The original handwritten deed of the property dates back to 1885. Located in The Grindlay’s Estate Heritage Precinct, which was mapped out by Thomas Braim in 1888, the property has land size of about 1169 square metres. It was previously on the market in 1972 with only two previous owners. Goya Dmytryshchak

Fight for aged-care cash

Future leaders recognised

By Benjamin Millar A leading aged-care provider in the west is lobbying for a return of federal government dementia-care funding. Doutta Galla Aged Services, an independent, not-for-profit agency, has lost $800,000 in funding in favour of a “token” advisory service. Shadow Minister for Ageing, Shayne Neumann, visited Doutta Galla’s Footscray centre last Wednesday to discuss the funding loss and its effect on dementia programs and building projects. Doutta Galla chair Bruce Mildenhall said the visit came about after a recent trip to Canberra with chief executive Vanda Iaconese, as part of an Aged & Community Services Australia (ACSA) delegation to talk to federal MPs and senators about the challenges facing aged care providers in the wake of the cuts. The Abbott government scrapped $100 million in annual funding to aged-care providers looking after dementia sufferers, replacing it with $54.5 million over four years to establish severe behaviour response teams (SBRTs), a mobile workforce of clinical experts sent out to support dementia patients in aged-care centres. “It’s very frustrating, they took $800,000 out that was for specialist dementia services and replaced it with an advisory service that tells us what we already know,” Mr Mildenhall said. “We need to look at returning these services – as the government recently said, dementia is a huge issue and has now become the second biggest killer in Australia.” Mr Mildenhall said Doutta Galla would continue to advocate and lobby on behalf of more than 500 residents to improve the aged care system and health outcomes for older people.

Hobsons Bay’s most inspirational young people have been proclaimed as part of National Youth Week. The awards were presented by Future Leaders Unite and Hobsons Bay council last week to people aged 12-25 years. Group winners were all-girl band, She Wolf, for challenging masculine stereotypes in rock music, 10 participants in Hobsons Bay council’s 2014 Whitten Project who completed a seven-month youth leadership program with the Western Bulldogs, and the Fill your Sole community project, in which nine women filled empty shoeboxes with necessities to give to homeless youth. Six individual winners were announced for fundraising, outstanding academic achievement and services to the community. Eritrea-born Noela Ido is a trilingual student from Bayside College. Charlee Jane Maru organised several festivals for the west’s Mauri and Polynesian community. Noah Callan, who has dyskinetic cerebral palsy, has overcome enormous barriers. Former Altona P-9 College captain Daniel Ketchley raised $600 for Diabetes Australia while Tim Lilley, recipient of the Australian Defence Force Long Tan leadership and teamwork award, goes into the Melbourne University Kwong Lee Dow Young Scholars Program. Pianist Damian He was awarded for exceptional academic achievements at Bayside College. Goya Dmytryshchak

High rise hits the deck at VCAT By Goya Dmytryshchak

The developer appealed to VCAT with revised plans showing two buildings – five storeys and three storeys – with 38 apartments and 37 car spaces. VCAT presiding senior member Laurie Hewet and member Tracey Bilston-McGillen echoed residents’ concerns about the visual bulk of the buildings. “As the building is designed, we are uncomfortable with the height due to the proposed materiality and harshness of the form,” they reported in their decision. “The building should create a sense of place and identity at different levels, generally for

Plans for a 38-dwelling apartment complex up to five storeys high at Spotswood have been refused by the state’s planning tribunal. The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) upheld Hobsons Bay council’s refusal to grant a permit to Melbourne Cup Pty Ltd for the development at 637 Melbourne Road. Last June, the council rejected an application for an eight-storey, 56-dwelling apartment block on the same site. It drew 176 objections from surrounding residents.

‘‘

We want growth and development … but not at - Colleen Gates any cost

’’

Spotswood, as well as the future occupants of the building. While the building is creative, it fails in our view to successfully integrate itself into the area.” The VCAT members expressed concern with the form of the three-storey building, which had a flat roof and extended 30 metres. They said they were also concerned about the

impact of freeway noise, noting that residents of relatively small apartments relied on external balconies for their amenity. Mayor Colleen Gates said VCAT’s decision was a win for sensible planning. “The development simply had too many important issues that remained unresolved, including drainage, traffic and amenity concerns,” she said. “We want growth and development in Hobsons Bay, but not at any cost. We’re looking for developments that create quality living environments for future residents that also fit in with their surrounds.”

Food program at risk at fundraising to be able to sustain this very pivotal support program for the community because, if anything, the need is growing.” A fundraising dinner will be held on June 12 at Yarraville Club. Ms Milhem said community organisations that had previously helped fund the program were feeling the bite of government cutbacks and had been unable to commit this year. “Everyone’s cutting back where they can, which has left us with a really tight budget … we’re having this fundraiser to see if we can at least run it for another year or two until we can get some different source of funding.” The program received the Minister for Health Volunteer Award in 2012 and 2013. More details, donations: Fatima Milhem, 9399 3511 or fatimam@gatewaysupport.org.au.

An emergency relief program delivering food to people in need across the inner west is in danger of folding when it runs out of funds in June. Gateway Community Foodlink, a not-forprofit group based in Spotswood, is trying to raise $20,000 to keep its program going for at least another year. Each week, it delivers 2.5 tonnes of food to more than 750 people, including disadvantaged school children, older men and church groups. Volunteer co-ordinator Fatima Milhem said the Foodlink program did not receive government funding and relied on community grants and donations. She said at least $20,000 was needed to operate a refrigerated truck to continue distributing food from donors such as Foodbank, Second Bite, Altona IGA and Bakers Delight. “Now, we’re in a situation where we’re looking

CAKE CHALLENGE Do you ever look back at the first birthday cake you baked for your child and marvel at how far you’ve come since then? My son’s first birthday cake was meant to resemble a farmyard, and it sort of did … though I couldn’t seem to stop the plastic toy cows from sinking up to their udders in the green coconut grass. Since then I’ve graduated to all kinds of cakes – Cookie Monster, Formula One cars, Spongebob Squarepants, Etihad Stadium …

NATHAN COE Melbourne Victory goalkeeper, Yarraville local and part owner of Rocco and Coe in Port Melbourne FB: How would you rate your cooking skills? NC: Not too bad. My wife’s better but I love to cook … at times. FB: What is your signature dish? NC: Salmon and couscous tagine FB: If you could only have one more meal, what would it be? NC: Thankfully, I can include multiple courses. Oysters into some dumplings, a beautiful pasta dish. Actually no, I think I would just go to Chin Chin and I would have the beef and also the barramundi and pork salad. FB: What is your favourite food TV show and who is your favourite TV food person? NC: I would say all the MasterChef guys and Heston [Blumenthal]. FB: What is your favourite food? NC: My favourite cuisine would be Italian and all the Asian food at Chin Chin. FB: What is your favourite drink? NC: I drink sparkling water all the time. I like a really good Aussie beer. Also occasionally a Japanese whisky. FB: Which five people would you most like to invite to dinner? NC: Archie Thompson, Alex Schultz (Starbucks), Blake Mycoskie (founder, TOMS), Jack Welch (CEO, General Electric) and Elon Musk (CEO Tesler Motors and co-founder of PayPal)

But now I find myself in a quandary. My son’s 10th birthday is fast approaching and his favourite thing in the world is soccer … or to be more precise, Melbourne Victory. He wants a Melbourne Victory cake (of course he does), so do I go all out and attempt to make a dark blue cake in the shape of a Melbourne Victory jersey? Do I make one in the shape of Nathan Coe? Or do I work from the inside out and attempt a cake with layers of dark blue and white? Not entirely sure where I’m headed with this one. It may well have disaster written all over it, so any advice is welcome!

GOOD BEER WEEK If you’re a fan of Aussie beer, May is the month to really let your palate loose. Good Beer Week is held over nine froth-filled days from May 16 to 24, with 250 events across 180 venues in Melbourne and throughout Victoria. This year’s event will see beer celebrated in some unusual ways. That includes pairing it with – and pitting it against – spirits, cider and wine. For more information, visit www.goodbeerweek.com.au

The science of coffee Gone are the days when ordering a cappuccino was a once-in-a-blue-moon thing. As tastes have refined the era of the “coffee snob” is upon us. It’s all about the bean, the blend and the roast. For the newly initiated, here’s a bit of a breakdown: The cappuccino is where most young people begin their coffee journey. The anatomy of it comprises equal parts coffee, milk and foam. The “capp” (as it’s affectionately known) is all about the froth. But when powdered chocolate is sprinkled on top, it transforms from a drink to a delectable delight. 10010598-25 1181684-LB17-15

Coffee drinkers graduate to the cafe latte, consisting of a double shot of espresso to which is added steamed milk and a small layer of crema. Hardened espresso drinkers may turn their noses up at this fluffy brew but it’s the most popular coffee order. Espresso is the drink of choice for those who enjoy their caffeine hit without any interruptions – just bold full-bodied flavour. It’s just pure, unadulterated coffee. An affogato offers a way for lovers of coffee to get it into their dessert – it’s a shot of coffee poured over a scoop of vanilla ice-cream. Sarah Aquilina

Keep your home. Budget for your future Whether buying a first car, a house or saving to retire, it’s important to know the best ways of getting the most from your savings and how much money you need. Saving for retirement depends on your age and intended lifestyle. Most retirees need more income in their first years of retirement because these are often when they decide to travel or pursue hobbies. As they age, their lifestyle slows down and less income is required. One way people can boost their nest egg is to make extra contributions to their superannuation each week before retiring. Although this will decrease take-home pay during that time, it will make a difference later on. The Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) estimates a couple looking for a comfortable retirement needs $58,326 a year. Those seeking a ‘modest’ retirement lifestyle will need $33,784 a year. For singles, a modest retirement will cost them $23,489 a year or $42,597 a year for a comfortable retirement. The ASFA refers to a modest lifestyle as better than living off the pension but still only able to afford fairly basic activities. Meanwhile, the ASFA says a comfortable lifestyle allows for the retiree to be involved in a range of leisure activities and have a good standard of living, including private health insurance, a reasonable car, domestic and, occasionally, international travel.

CALL 9379 8022 / 1300 445 537

Upcoming retirees who are unsure of their budget and the best way to get the most from their money can contact a financial advisor for professional advice. Be sure to choose someone who holds an Australian financial services licence. By Rebecca Miller

Price: $680,000 – $750,000

Price: $540,000 – $570,000

Looking mighty fine kerbside, with its traditional facade and leadlight window panes, this renovated and extended house has retained period features such as original baltic floorboards, deep skirts, dado panels and lovely high ceilings. But it’s a contemporary place, with on-trend decor and good integration with the outdoors. Two of the three bedrooms with built-in wardrobes share a bathroom with a clawfoot tub and a customised period-style vanity unit. The main bedroom has a sleek en suite with a stylish floating vanity unit and walk-in shower. An open lounge room provides a second living area to accompany a family-meals hub with floorboards, a study nook with built-in cabinetry and two sets of bifold doors to a covered deck with pizza oven. The kitchen is an appealing cook’s space with stone benches, a deep enamel sink and dishwasher.

With Seddon establishing itself as a sought-after spot, with a burgeoning cafe culture and proximity to the CBD, this two-bedroom weatherboard terrace is an enviable location. It’s close to Seddon Village and Seddon train station thus supporting city commuters or those simply wanting to share in the vibrancy of the western suburb’s inner-city ring. There’s a living room, bathroom and a kitchen with wall oven and gas cooktop. It all needs serious renovating but would make a great project, a rewarding experience to bring it up to scratch, and ultimately an investment into a bright future. The property also has scope for an extension, subject to council approval.

Price: $700,000 – $750,000

Floorboards and white walls throughout make this period abode a bright, modern place that’s kept lovely ornate plaster ceilings and stepped cornices to add richness of character. Three bedrooms with wardrobes include the main with a cast-iron fireplace under a period mantelpiece, and an en suite snazzed up to meet today’s demands. An open lounge room at the front joins with a casual living hub awash with northern light. The galley-style kitchen, next to a meals zone, has lots of white cupboards topped with charcoal laminate, a dishwasher, underbench oven and gas cooktop. A carport at the back is accessed from a second frontage in Margot Street; next to this is a secure storage space. The property has a water tank and is close to schools, shops and transport.

If city skyline views from the kitchen and bay views from the living area sound a treat, this fully renovated, beautifully presented townhouse may prove hard to resist. There are two big bedrooms at the back, one with built-in wardrobe and the other with a walk-in; both rooms have timber-framed bifold doors to a large, paved courtyard which is totally private and beautified with greenery. A carpeted living-dining room with modern decor links with a kitchen-meals zone, next door to which is a good-sized bathroom/European laundry. The skylit kitchen has loads of blonde-timber laminate cupboards, a pantry cupboard, stainless-steel underbench oven and electric cooktop. Climate control is assured with slab floor heating, a split-system and ceiling fans. A spacious garage downstairs has a storage area and separate studio space. Yacht clubs, cafes and restaurants are within easy reach.

Melbourne Water is undertaking a control program at Kororoit Creek & Truganina Swamp during April and May, to reduce the number of rabbits. This is part of our commitment to responsible land management, biodiversity conservation and continued good amenity for our neighbours. An experienced, licenced vermin controller will install bait stations on site using Pindone, an authorised bait for urban areas. Visitors to the area are reminded that the area is a conservation zone and the following precautions should be observed: â&#x20AC;˘ Remain on established pathways â&#x20AC;˘ Do not attempt to enter any fenced areas â&#x20AC;˘ Ensure children and pets remain outside restricted areas â&#x20AC;˘ Do not touch or handle animal carcasses â&#x20AC;˘ Observe warning signs and follow any instructions If you suspect that a pet may have come into contact with bait, seek veterinary treatment immediately and inform the vet that the bait is Pindone.

59 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ APRIL 22, 2015

TECH TALK MARIBYRNONG.STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

Music to your ears In many years of writing about audio I have come across both good and bad electrostatic speakers, but what I have never encountered are electrostatic speakers that don’t require a second mortgage. (Although an importer once offered me a pair of $20,000 electrostatics that had put in considerable mileage in showrooms and shows for $8000. Bargain. I would have bought them if not for the threat of divorce from my better half.) Electrostatics are imposing beasts. They’re not like normal speakers. Regular speakers have cones that punch in and out to move air and create soundwaves while electrostatics have a wafer-thin sheet of plastic film stretched in an electrostatic field that vibrates with the current to move air. The music they create is so delicate and crisp it seems to hang there, so fragile that if you sneeze you’re afraid it will all crash down. There’s a purity here that’s achingly beautiful. There are electrostatic headphones too but these are similarly expensive. The best-known brand is Stax and they start at $1700. So when BenQ announced a portable electrostatic speaker for $399 I wasn’t just surprised, I was amazed. Like almost every other portable speaker around, BenQ’s treVolo has a rechargeable battery (good for 12 hours) and Bluetooth but, unlike almost every other portable speaker, it isn’t built to thump out heaping helpings of bass, rather its makers say it has been engineered around musical accuracy, with emphasis on the mids and highs. Mind you, electrostatics are notoriously

weak in low-range sound and that’s why the bulk of them have conventional coned woofers built in. And so does the treVolo. It has bass drivers housed in a centre cabinet from which the electrostatic wings, on left and right, fold out. Because the wings can each be folded through 90 degrees, they can be set up to fill quite a large space, even from a corner. So the treVolo sounds like an attractive option to anyone into any music other than hip-hop, punk and rage. In terms of clarity and definition it’s brilliant for $399. All of the electrostatic strengths are abundantly evident. The treVolo is a genuine proposition for people into classical and orchestral music and it also does a good job with vocals, especially female vocals. But if you want something with lots of low end this is not for you. It can handle bass, just not lots of it and, when it gets it, it winds down the volume. And it doesn’t go terribly loud.

A hint: for best detail and performance, mount it so the electrostatic wings are on the same level as your ears.

(Supplied)

By Rod Easdown

When folded, the TreVolo measures 18 x 13 x 8 centimetres and weighs just over a kilogram. By the way, connected to a phone it can also be used to make and take calls.

SPORT Seagulls downed by Wellers’ onslaught “Coming up against strong opposition in round one has given us a lot to think about and a lot to review during the week.” The only positive for the Seagulls was the debut of new recruit Sandy Yeates, who worked hard on the front line and capped her club debut with a goal. “She performed well,” Drake said. “She’s very mobile and can create something out of nothing.” Meanwhile, Leah Merrett scored a hat-trick and Tegan Purser fired in a double as Footscray mauled Kew 5-2 at Elgar Park. In the men’s premier league, Footscray routed Casey 10-3 on the back of five individual goalscorers, including a hat-trick to Oscar Allen and two each to Andrew Monte, Riley Damnics and Kyle Gildea. Altona won 2-1 over Camberwell after goals to Andrew Scanlon and John Camilleri. Lance Jenkinson

Falcon eyes on the prize

■ What

a thrill it was to be MC at the Victoria University Whitten Oval last Saturday when, for the first time in more than 60 years, a premiership flag was unfurled. Like many of my era who missed out on the 1954 flag, it was great to be a part of this milestone. I hope we all can be part of an AFL flag at the same venue in future. On that subject, playing Hawthorn in Launceston at the weekend, we got a reality check, although many positives for the Doggies came out of the game. Back to the VU Whitten Oval … and despite the VFL side losing to Box Hill, it was a great day for the club. The red, white and blue army were there in force and the way they have embraced the VFL side is sensational. Susan Alberti has taken on the role of president of the Footscray Bulldogs and Scott West is the number one VFL ticketholder.

■ The

Bulldogs trainers have a great line-up for their function coming up on May 22 at the Whitten Oval’s Elite Learning Centre. The great Kelvin Templeton will make his return to talk about his days in the red, white and blue. Other guests will include Mark and Lachie Hunter, Jake Stringer and Marcus Bontempelli, Luke Beveridge, Chris Maple and, fresh from the jungle, Merv Hughes. Bobby Murphy and I will be hosting the event, which raises funds for new equipment for the players. There will be a few very precious auction items. All Bulldogs supporters should be there as it’s a great night.

By Lance Jenkinson City West Falcons mid-courter Clare Moylan says the week’s break for the under-age nationals carnival was a welcome refresher of body and mind for the players, but now it’s “full steam ahead” for the run in to the Victorian Netball League finals. The Falcons are perched on top of the championship ladder – a game and percentage clear of second-placed Boroondara Express – and all but certain of making the finals. An internal review conducted during the break must have been full of glowing appraisal. What’s not to like about 10 wins, a draw and a loss from 12 rounds? The Falcons have sharpened their focus on a single goal: to make amends for last year. “We’re definitely looking long term now and aiming towards that ultimate win,” Moylan said. The Falcons have been the most successful club in the VNL’s short history. They went through last season undefeated before losing in the grand final. There was a feeling around the VNL – and even within the Falcons’ nest – that 2015 might be a rebuilding year for a new-look team. That has not been the case. “They would’ve looked at us as a fairly different team and might have thought we weren’t going to be as strong as we have been,” Moylan said. “It was surprising how quickly we’ve gelled, but we’ve all been so focused and willing to work.” While last season’s shock grand final loss to the Southern Saints is a reference point for the media, Moylan hardly gives it a second thought. The 22-year-old said it had been brought up in conversation “once or twice” around the team, mostly as a valuable learning tool. “It’s last year to me and I’m not bringing it into this year,” Moylan said. “It gave us a taste of what it’s like when we get into those positions and … what it takes to come back and get back into a winning position.” Moylan has been with the Falcons for the best part of six years. She was drawn to the club because of the quality of coaching from Marg Lind and Nicole Richardson, who worked closely with her in netball academies as a teenager. A Reservoir resident, Moylan spent a season with her hometown North East Blaze but never felt settled. “That year I wasn’t really happy with the way it went for a few different reasons,” she said.

IN THE DOGHOUSE

■ Auskick

is a great program, but this year the AFL has taken on the responsibility of getting the Auskick packs to participants and, quite frankly, it’s a disaster. Previously, the Auskick centres looked after the distribution, which worked perfectly. We are more than a month into the program and there is no delivery of the packs. For my son this is not so important as he has his footy from last year, but the first-year kids have nothing. Interestingly, the AFL has no problem processing the payment, but it has a problem delivering the goods after that. This is just not good enough.

■ Great

to see nine WRFL representatives in the Vic Metro representative squad. Even though we lost the game against the EFL, we got the highest number of representatives in the squad: Wayde Skipper, Kwame McHarg, Jack Purton Smith, Rhett King, Tim Jenkins, Tim Quick, Murray Boyd, Andrew Panayi and Jayden Post.

“I had Marg and Richo at the academy, so I thought I’d give it a go at the Falcons and luckily got in. “They’ve taught me almost everything I know in netball and have kept me on track to make sure I’m doing everything right, not just in netball. I love it here, I’ve formed great friendships and learnt so much, so I can’t really fault the place.”

Moylan will never shut the door on the hope of playing at the next level. “I wouldn’t say no,” said Moylan on the prospect of a national league team calling. “But right now my focus is more of a team focus on the Falcons rather than worrying about my own performance and where I’m going.” The Falcons tonight face ACU Sovereigns at the State Netball and Hockey Centre.

Altona coach Greg Drake refused to let his players off the hook after Saturday’s ugly 6-1 loss to Camberwell in Hockey Victoria’s women’s premier league season-opener at JK Grant Reserve. Drake was shocked at the severity of the beating as the Wellers underlined their reputation as finals contenders from the outset. He was most alarmed by the insipid performance of his own team. The Seagulls lacked cohesion, coughed up possession too easily and neglected defensive responsibilities. It was the kind of form that was not evident during a “reasonably strong pre-season”, which prompted Drake to feel as though the Seagulls were in a better position than 12 months earlier. “It was a pretty disappointing first outing,” Drake told Star Weekly. “We had a fairly good couple of practice matches so this was fairly unexpected, but luckily we’ve got 17 rounds to improve.

Eagles caught in the storm By Lance Jenkinson Yarraville-Seddon Eagles had it all its own way for 30 minutes until the Manor Lakes turned up the blowtorch on last Saturday’s game. The Storm choked the Eagles running game after quarter-time, forced errors and turning up the momentum of the game to pile on 11 of the last 17 goals. The 10-point Storm win was an early-season cracker in the Western Region Football League division 2 round. Eagles’ coach Dean Callaway gave credit where it was due to his opposition but admitted his side helped in their own demise. “We kicked six goals to two in the first quarter, four goals up at quarter-time, and we sort of just got in our comfort zone and thought it was going to happen,” he told Star Weekly. “We didn’t work hard enough and let them back in the game, and it was even at half-time. “Our decision-making was poor at times and when we overused the footy they capitalised. “To their credit, they put the pressure on us and played a good brand of footy and we didn’t withstand the pressure.” With the absence of five key players, Yarraville-Seddon’s lack of taller options in defence and attack was exposed, forcing Callaway into playing some of his players out of position as stop-gap measures. The Eagles got multiple goals out of Sam Boyce (four) and Chris Topalidis (three), while Gordon Hillsdon chimed in with three goals from the midfield, but it was a bit too predictable going forward. The good news for the Eagles is there will be an influx of five starting players for the Anzac Day trip to Glenorden, including the return of sons of guns – Scott Krakouer, son of Phil, and Jason Harmes, son of Wayne.

“They’re both half forward flankers who run and carry the footy; they’ve got an amazing ability to read the game well and are good overhead,” Callaway said. “They can really power, have got great ground speed and can deliver the footy and take marks. “They’re fairly tall guys, too, which we probably lacked down back; a couple more talls up front will give us four targets instead of two.” Callaway is not hitting the panic button yet but, with no wins in two games, there is some urgency for Yarraville-Seddon to keep up.

“There are no negative vibes, it’s just a matter of working through the tough times and getting the fundamentals right,” Callaway said. Meanwhile, West Footscray was tested early by Sunshine Heights before slamming on 21 goals to four after half-time to win by 132 points. Roosters forwards Hayden Bray (seven goals), Munir El Houli (six) and Damien Yze (five) had the goal umpires working overtime. North Footscray stormed home with seven last quarter goals to two to beat Glenorden by 51 points. Kaine Williams shone with six goals.

Woodsmen set to face foes A scintillating second half saw Spotswood come from behind to beat St Albans and claim its first win of the Western Region Football League division 1 season at McLean Reserve on Saturday. The Woodsmen trailed by 31 points at quarter-time and 23 at the main break but came home to pile on 14 goals to six after half-time and run out 23-point winners. The big guns came to the fore for the Woodsmen when the game was on the line, including onballer David Iaccarino, who was best-on-ground, Michael Cassidy, David Sablich and Murray Boyd. Shaun Buttigieg-Clarke, who crossed from second division Caroline Springs in the summer, caught the eye with five goals for the Woodsmen, while Christian Elliott and Spencer Davis booted three each. The Woodsmen squared the ledger at 1-1 ahead of the match against old foes Port Melbourne Colts on Saturday. Altona was brought back down to earth by premiership favourites Deer Park in its home opener at JK Grant Reserve. The Vikings stalled out of the blocks, scoreless in the first term and played catch up for the remainder in the 76-point loss. In division 3, Parkside held on to defeat a fast-finishing Laverton by eight points in the clash of the Magpies. The Keenan boys – James and Ryan – were named best for the Parksiders. Aaron Gauci and Brent Kelly booted three goals each.

Brothers in arms flying high for Western Jets Liam Carter arrived at the Western Jets as a skinny defender and played just one game in his first season of TAC Cup football. Fast forward two years and through a tremendous amount of commitment and hard work, Carter – now 12 kilograms heavier – is entrusted with playing on the opposition’s best forward each week. His TAC Cup coaches were so impressed with his work ethic, they invited him back to the club to play an extra season with the Jets as a 19-year-old. “After last season I had a few VFL clubs interested in me but I thought TAC Cup was the way to go,” Carter says. “I really wanted to have one more crack at it and see what I could achieve this year.” The Melton Football Club junior didn’t wait long to repay the faith shown in him by the Jets. Carter was named Western’s best player in its opening round loss to the third-placed Eastern Ranges. He backed that performance up with a strong hit-out against the Sandringham Dragons the following week. Western Jets coach Torin Baker said Carter’s improvement had been great to watch.

“We saw that gradual progress over the course of the season and thought we should give him another year,” Baker said. “He has been taking the opposition’s most dangerous forward each week. The fact that he can play on a tall or a small is a real advantage for us.” As part of the club’s 2015 leadership group, Carter is a vital Jets member off the field as well. “Having a couple of years of experience under his belt, Liam has grown more confident in himself,” Baker said. “He has always been really impressive in being able to meet all club commitments and be a real leader with his organisation. Now it is about him helping others to achieve the same levels as him.” As if stopping one Carter wasn’t tough enough for opposition sides, this year they also need to concentrate on shutting down Liam’s younger brother, Ryan. Also a Melton junior, Ryan made his debut for the Jets as a bottom-age player in round one. It was the first time the pair had played a match together at any level of football. “We are both really enjoying it,” Liam said.

The Western Jets will take on the New “Before the season I just told him to train hard, do everything that the coaches ask and South Wales/ACT Rams in the TAC Cup this really have a crack at it and when he gets the weekend. opportunity, just to take it with both hands. I think he has done that.” Liam Twomey

Teamwork yields an ace By Lance Jenkinson It’s a long way from the tiny country town of Dunkeld to suburban Footscray. A two-hour 56 minute drive, clocking up 254 kilometres, will get you from point to point. That is the journey young tennis prodigy Curtis Noble made to give himself the best chance of becoming a professional player. Noble was not going to get elite coaching, professional structures or competitive matches back home, so he opted for a move to the Maribyrnong Sports Academy with its program for emerging athletes. The decision to move impacted not only on Noble but also his parents, as he was only 14 at the time. The incredible sacrifices of Noble’s mother, Rose, and father, Perry, made their son’s dream a reality. Perry still lives and works on the family farm in Dunkeld, while Rose has picked up work in Melbourne to be with her son, so he can give tennis his best shot. Four years on, the move is reaping rewards, with Noble set to represent Victoria in the 18-and-under national championships in Tasmania next month. Noble is thrilled to be able to represent Victoria. The 17-year-old will play in both the singles and teams events at the tournament. “It’s an honour to play for the state,” he said. Noble’s game has grown exponentially since his move. He credits coach Marc Sophoulis for refining his game to the point where he enters next month’s nationals with a genuine shot at success. “He’s a top coach,” Noble said. “I was a pretty good tennis player when I came to the school, but I never really had a structure to my game, never really had a game plan, and he’s given me that. “He’s identified my strengths and weaknesses – helped me build on my strengths and reduce my weaknesses.” Noble is not afraid of hard work and has embraced his time at the sports academy, spending upwards of 10 hours a day on court and three hours in the gym – all the while keeping his year 12 studies ticking over. “I love getting out on court and playing and training,” he said. “I’ve accepted the fact you’ve got to train hard and you’ve got to love the feeling that training hurts because it’s going to be beneficial in the long run.” Noble looks up to Roger Federer – the only man to have spent more than 300 weeks at the top of the ATP rankings. He likes the Swiss superstar because of his work ethic and ability to grind out a victory in a five-setter.

Williamstown CYMs is on the winners’ list for the first time since its promotion to the Victorian Amateur Football Association’s Premier C grade. The CYs booted five straight goals in the last term to secure a 15-point second round win over Old Camberwell at Gordon Barnard Reserve on Saturday. Nick Ebinger was unstoppable for CYs with six goals, while Sean McVernon, Ben Deller and Jack Gray were among the best. The CYs face a stern test against unbeaten Peninsula at Fearon Reserve on Saturday.

Soccer

A late goal from Slave Bozinovski saw Altona Magic edge out Sydenham Park 2-1 in Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 1 north-west at Paisley Park on Saturday. The Magic are undefeated with two wins and two draws, and still maintaining touch with the ladder-leading sides. Altona East Phoenix picked up maximum points for the first time this season with a 3-1 away win over Keilor Park after a Craig Tomkins double. Yarraville Glory is three points clear on top of the state league 2 north-west ladder after an entertaining 3-2 win over Essendon United, sparked by a double from Keith Burch.

Basketball

Noble points to the mental toughness of Federer as what sets him apart from the rest. “He pushes through; he’s mentally focused,” Noble said. “He trains hard and is so smooth in the way he plays.” Mental toughness is the main area of Noble’s game he wants to bring to its optimum with the sports psychologist at the academy. “Everyone can train for the physical side of stuff, but not many people have access to a sports psychologist,” Noble said.

“The mental part of the game is bigger than physical, so if I can get that down pat, it gives you a huge edge over many players.” Once he completes his VCE, Noble will turn his attention to carving out a full-time tennis career. “I’ve always dreamed of being a pro tennis player,” he said. “I’d like to go full-time and put all my time and training into tennis and go for a pro ranking and see if I can hold it. “It’s all about giving yourself the best shot,” he said.

The turbulent start to the season continued for the Altona Gators, with its losing streak extending to six in the Big V basketball men’s division 1. The Gators were thrashed 88-76 by Geelong at the Altona Sports Centre on Sunday, Joey Mausar being the only shining light with 27 points, including four threes. The struggling Gators will be out to break their duck when they entertain Sunbury Jets at home on Sunday.

Smart game turns tide for Gulls By Lance Jenkinson Williamstown showed how far it has come in 12 months under coach Andy Collins when it held on for a thrilling one-point win over Northern Blues in the Victorian Football League season opener on Saturday. The Seagulls lost the corresponding game to the Blues in similar circumstances last season. Saturday’s result, and how it was crafted, show how comfortable the players are with the plans laid out by Collins for late-game situations. Seagulls football manager Chris Dixon said the side performed really well when up by a point in the last three or four minutes. “We were smart in the way we controlled certain situations – we were killing time and clogging it up,” he said. “It’s funny – you look back 12 months ago when we were in the exact same situation against the Northern Blues. “This year, we’ve had a much settled list … having less changeover probably allowed us to win the game in the end, because the boys knew each other, knew how we play.” In beating a Blues team that featured 18 AFL-listed players, the Seagulls proved once again that standalone sides can succeed in this competition. That the Seagulls ran the game out strongly can be attributed to the late start to the season. “I think we’ll find across the competition that most of the teams will be fit, but certainly we were pleased to run out the game strongly in that last quarter and overcome a deficit,” Dixon said. When the going got tough for the Seagulls, they called on their leaders to stand up. Peter Faulks, Sam Dunell, Ben Jolley, David Fahey, Mitch Banner and Cameron Lockwood

answered the call. Faulks was impenetrable at the back, standing tall for the four quarters and marking the Blues dangerous key forwards. In his first official game with the Seagulls new recruit Dunell, a former St Kilda player at the top level, proved how valuable he will be starring in attack with two goals and having a hand in a number of others. “He was really important for us,” Dixon said. “He’s a hard player to match up on because he’s so strong overhead but he also covers a lot of territory.” The Seagulls had 12 individual goalkickers. “We’re the sort of team that is going to rely on an even spread of goalkickers,” Dixon said. “We think we can get a lot of goals from our midfielders and we also think we’ve got a real good mix up forward.” Williamstown will play its first home game of the season against Sandringham at Burbank Oval on Sunday from 2pm. The club is encouraging families to attend the home opener with free kids activities on offer. Colourful former Richmond player Jake King will be the president’s luncheon guest. Tickets are available through the club’s website at www.williamstownfc.com.au. Meanwhile, it was a bittersweet opening to the VFL season for Footscray. Before the game, the Bulldogs had the thrill of unfurling the 2014 flag for which they worked so hard last season. And there was the feel-good factor of the successful return of Clay Smith from a second knee injury. But the Box Hill Hawks exacted revenge in the grand final re-match with a hit-and-run 13-point win at the Whitten Oval on Saturday. The wayward kicking Dogs managed only two goals after half-time. The Bulldogs will host Casey Scorpions at Barkly Street from noon on Sunday.

A race of champions Top western suburbs cyclists have the chance to add their names to one of cycling’s most prestigious honour rolls in the west when the 55th annual Bob Robson Memorial road cycling race is run in Williamstown on Anzac Day. A who’s who of Australian champions have won the famous race, including the legendary Peter Besanko, Don Allan, David Allan and John Bylsma. It takes place on a circuit of Pasco, Verdon and Perry streets and Railway Place, 2.30-3.30pm, on Saturday, with a support race starting an hour earlier. Footscray Cycling Club criterium champion Dom Dudkiewicz is a clear favourite but will not have it all his own way, with Matt Heath, Mark Ferguson, James Love and last year’s winner Miles Da Costa all in great form.

The race is named and run in honour of the late Bob Robson, who was a foundation member of the Williamstown RSL Club and the Williamstown Cycling Club. These clubs merged into the Footscray Cycling Club in 1970. Robson was a well known and popular figure in Williamstown until his death in 1959. He owned and operated the Seagull Cycles shop on Ferguson Street, which was popular among cyclists. Robson lived behind the Williamstown RSL and was a committed member and worker for the returned veterans’ club. The Bob Robson Memorial has formed part of the RSL Club’s Anzac Day celebrations since 1960.
