Would I be wrong if I said it’s possibly in the DNA of all AFL supporters – no matter their colours – to secretly harbour a warm spot, deep beneath the duffle coat as they huddle at the MCG, for the Western Bulldogs? Perhaps it is because of the club’s proud Footscray origins and heartbreaking backstory that fans of all creeds can’t help but want the sons of the west to do well. Bulldog Marcus Bontempelli, the sensational All Australian midfielder who is a chance to hang Charlie around his neck on Brownlow night, shares with us his own proud footy origins in this week’s cover feature. ●

FIRST PERSON

““I am Scott Bosman ” … and I’m a corporate pilot I was 14 when I saw an F-111 fighter bomber fly very low and very fast through Port Phillip Bay Heads. I looked up and thought, “I absolutely want to do that”. I liked the technicality of it and appreciated the training of the pilot.

My first solo flight was at 16 with the Scouts at Moorabbin Airport in their two-seat Cessna. On the airstrip, the instructor stepped out and said I’d have to do one lap by myself, and then land. I did that and loved it.

I was accepted into the air force after my second year of an aviation degree at Swinburne, and on my 21st birthday I graduated as a junior officer.

I spent 15 years in the air force. I completed pilot training, did four months in the Middle East in the air operations centre, and fighter jet training in

formation with three other Hawks at a cruise speed of 600km/h. The most challenging run was during a night flight. We were so close to thunderstorms, veins of static electricity crisscrossed the canopy.

I was also a pilot for the VIP squadron in Canberra, and flew politicians within Australia and to the South Pacific. I flew Denmark’s Princess Mary to Broken Hill; my last passenger was former Governor-General Quentin Bryce.

I became a corporate pilot in 2014. First, for a wealthy individual in Western Australia, and for the past three years, for a company that flies out of Essendon Airport. I fly several times a month, and three to four times a year I pilot longer trips. In July, another captain and I flew the owner’s family to Europe for a month.

As told to

R O BY N D O R E IA N ●

Ph o t o

I love the responsibility of piloting a plane worth upwards of $US55 million ($81.3 million). I know I am handling a very expensive piece of equipment and ultimately, it’s down to me to get it right.

We visit the simulator in Montreal annually, where the aircraft I fly is made. We endure situations like engine failure, electrical problems and smoke in the cockpit. We also have to undertake detailed medicals.

Flying is not difficult. If it were, it would be problematic. Landing is still the most challenging.

Low visibility, strong wind or a wet runway, mean you sometimes need to call on nearly all your skills.

I am probably not a great passenger to travel with.

I’ll be like, “What’s that noise? Why are they doing that?” ●

COVER STORY It takes

a team to raise an AFL footballer. Star Marcus Bontempelli gives thanks.

A

s a youngster, Brownlow Medal contender Marcus Bontempelli spent countless hours kicking the footy at his Eltham home, imagining an elite career; the dream felt so real, he'd even commentate as he played in the backyard.

Bontempelli’s three sisters were more mad about horse show The Saddle Club than Sherrins, but there was a passion for footy elsewhere in the bloodline, via their cousin, St Kilda champion Nick Dal Santo.

“I spent a lot of time outside as the girls were interested in whatever they were interested in, so I was always outside kicking the footy on my own,” Bontempelli, 23, says.

“I would be in the backyard virtually as soon as I would get home from school. I'd throw my bag down and then be outside until dinner.

“I would be kicking the footy or playing basketball just to keep myself amused – I never had control of the TV remote.

“He [Nick] got drafted in 2001 and I was born in ’95, which meant I was about six or seven at that point.

“Once Nick got drafted I took an even greater love and interest in the game, and followed him and looked up to him as a role model.

“I think from that day forward I wanted to do what Nick was doing."

Now one of the league’s supreme midfielders and an All Australian, Bontempelli says while his sisters were busy together, he would spend hours alone outside with the footy, commentating to himself and visualising what it would be like to win a premiership at the MCG.

FIELD OF DREAMS

Wo r d s

Remarkably, just a few years later, that's exactly what Bontempelli did.

He was instrumental in the Western Bulldogs winning the AFL grand final in 2016, when he was 20.

That same year he polled 20 votes in the Brownlow (accompanied to the ceremony by his mother Geraldine).

Bontempelli was last week voted the player of the year by AFL’s coaches (the first Bulldog to win the accolade since it started 16 years ago), which has confirmed him as a hot favourite for the game’s highest individual honour at this year’s Brownlow count on September 23.

The Dogs’ premiership was extra special considering what the club had endured two years before, with Brendan McCartney resigning as senior coach and captain Ryan Griffen moving to Greater Western Sydney.

It was a time of upheaval at the proud club.

However, Bontempelli says he and his teammates embraced the change and what it felt like to be the underdog.

LU K E D E N N E H Y ●

J U LIA N KI N G M A

Looking across the ground Bontempelli recounted, with a smile, just how important the club was to him growing up, and the long nights of training.

“I remember being out here after training until the lights virtually went off, that was my thing,” he says.

“On a Thursday night they would put on a barbecue and we’d be out here after training trying to kick some bombs from the 50-metre mark.”

Bontempelli says he was lucky to be in such a strong junior team, and puts a lot of his professional success down to his foundation with the Panthers.

“I think one of the big reasons why I fell in love with the game as a kid was because of the footy club, and because of the people who ran it, and the friends I made during that time,” he says.

“I never felt I was on my own trying to achieve the dream. I’m incredibly grateful to the club for creating such a positive environment.”

aren’t far behind them in terms of going to games.” Growing up with three sisters, Bontempelli is a strong advocate of the AFLW and the leading role the Western Bulldogs have taken in the league’s development.

“Hopefully every club has its own team and it virtually becomes the same competition as us, side by side,” he says.

“I would be kicking the footy or playing basketball just to keep myself amused – I never had control of the TV remote.”

“I think some of the best stories in sport [are] coming through various levels of adversity that you go through,” he says.

“In the short space of two years we really flipped the script on what had been written for us. It was a pretty special time."

The other place Bontempelli spent hours of his youth was at the Eltham Panthers Junior Footy Club, just down the road from his family home.

On the eve of the AFL finals series, he visited the oval at Eltham Central Park for Domain Review.

His siblings Olivia, Alanna and Sienna may have left their brother to his own devices while nurturing that big dream, but they are all incredibly supportive of his career.

Their parents Carlo and Geraldine are also always by his side.

“I've got a really close family and they support me through everything,” he says.

“I'm lucky my mum and dad come to a lot of the games, and they try to travel and are probably there for almost 90 per cent of my games.

“I'm really lucky, and the girls

“It’s so great for girls out there who now have a pathway.”

With his profile and superstar status, Bontempelli has attracted commercial interests outside of football; one of those roles is as a friend of Mercedes-Benz Melbourne Vans.

“It’s a great car to drive around in,” he says of his Mercedes-Benz X-Class ute. “It’s incredibly versatile but it’s a big car too. I'm a big lad so that helps as well.” ● ● mbmelbourne.com.au

Tracing a father’s footsteps LAST MONTH

A

s a child, Juliet Rieden always knew there was something different about her family, particularly her father, John.

She knew he was smuggled out of Czechoslovakia as eight-year-old on the eve of the Second World War by his fearful parents but, like many men of his generation, he was reluctant to talk about his past.

It wasn’t until her visit in 2016 to Prague’s Pinkas Synagogue that Rieden’s many childhood questions were answered, when she saw name after name of her father’s relatives listed as Holocaust victims on the synagogue’s walls.

Family curiosity and a burning journalistic instinct kicked in, as she set off on an 18-month investigation.

Rieden, the editor-at-large at the The Australian Women’s Weekly, travels across Eastern Europe and England to trace the fates of her relatives from the moment Hitler’s Nazis occupied Czechoslovakia.

The full horror of the extermination of the Jews is brought home as Rieden recounts how her father’s family had their possessions confiscated and were then herded like cattle into crowded freight trains for one-way trips to concentration camps.

This meticulously researched book produces more than a few twists and turns as Rieden scours the globe for any surviving relatives.

She also develops a new understanding of her late dad; the “immense courage and resilience” of that eight-year-old separated from his parents.

The Writing on the Wall gives the reader an insight onto the worst of human nature. It is also a story of hope, kindness and love. ●

Sausage rolls, but you won’t hit a snag

GREG BRIGGS

Vegetarian ‘sausage’ rolls

T

ucked underneath Bristol Temple Meads railway station in England is Hart’s Bakery. The whiff of freshly baked sourdough, flaky buttery croissants, delectable pasties and mouth-watering cakes is definitely worth missing your train for.

I was told they had the best sausage rolls I’ll ever have and blimey they were.

The pork and jalapeno sausage rolls were amazing but the vegetarian sausage rolls made with mushrooms, barley and rye blew me away.

I thought it was clever and have created a recipe of my own inspired by the ones I had at Hart’s. I love the idea of using olives and pine nuts, which gives them a great texture.

If you want to make them vegan, opt for a vegan puff pastry.

If you feel extra adventurous, mix the spices up. Use some sumac or cayenne pepper and have a play on flavours.

Only thing is ... I would double the recipe because they are that good. Freeze them for a rainy day. ● Instagram: @diana.chan.au

Ingredients (Makes 12) 100g pearl barley 1 brown onion, finely diced 2 celery sticks, diced 1 tbsp olive oil 500g button mushrooms, chopped 2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced (optional) 2 tbsp Dijon mustard 1 tbsp smoked paprika, extra for sprinkling ∏ tbsp dried thyme leaves 50g panko bread crumbs (or substitute with normal bread crumbs) 50g pine nuts 40g black pitted olives, chopped 20g fresh flat-leaf parsley, chopped Juice of half a lemon 1 sheet ready rolled puff pastry (depending on the brand, may need two sheets) Olive oil for brushing Salt and pepper to taste 1 egg beaten, for brushing Tomato chutney, for serving Method ■ Cook the pearl barley in plenty of water until tender (about 30 minutes), drain and leave to cool.

■ Fry the onion and celery in olive oil for 10 to 15 minutes until softened in a large pan.

■ Add in the chopped mushrooms and minced garlic. Fry for a few more minutes until

the mushrooms release their juices.

Stir in the Dijon mustard, smoked paprika, thyme, salt and pepper and the cooked pearl barley.

Cook on a medium to high heat for five to 10 minutes, or until all the liquid has evaporated.

Allow to cool slightly, then place in a food processor and pulse until roughly blended, leaving some texture.

Mix in the bread crumbs, pine nuts, chopped olives and parsley and lemon juice. Add more salt and pepper to taste. Leave in the fridge to chill.

Divide the mix and roll into two long sausages the length of the puff pastry. Place the sausages in the freezer for an hour until solid, but not fully frozen.

Preheat the oven to 200C. Line a large baking tray with baking parchment.

Cut the sheet of puff pastry in half down the length. Roll each piece out to make them slightly wider so they will be wide enough to cover the sausage rolls with overlap.

Roll up pastry to enclose the filling, finishing seam side down. Brush top of log with egg mixture. Cut into 12 pieces. Place pieces, seam side down on prepared tray, about 2cm apart.

Repeat with remaining mince mixture. Brush the rolls with olive oil egg wash and sprinkle with paprika.

Bake for 25-30 minutes or until golden. Eat when warm with some tomato chutney. ●

TRAVEL \ AMALFI COAST We don't really want to tell you about Praiano in Italy, but we will. Snug between big-ticket Positano and atmospheric Amalfi on that sweeping, majestic coastline, Praiano nuzzles into the hillside like a magnificent secret. There, now you know.

A day Don't do anything else if you're day-tripping to Praiano – sit on the gorgeous pebble beach at Marina di Praia and watch the sun dapple the azure water. Maybe a simple, rustic seafood pasta at one of the three beachfront restaurants, maybe a short stroll along the seafront's gorgeous stone carved path to finish at Il Pirata for a crisp Aperol spritz as the sun sets and the boats skip their way back home.

A weekend

Base yourself in the middle of town, between the lofty peaks and the sea, and walk. There are a handful of excellent restaurants up here to fuel you as you ascend to the highest points of the village.

A week Divide your seven days by land and sea. The best, most fun and probably most hair-raising way is to hop a Sita bus and marvel as the driver hurls the full-size coach around the tight bends and narrow stone tunnels between towns. Wander Amalfi and its sublime Duomo di Sant Andrea to soothe your jangled nerves or the serene heights of Ravello before your return trip.

Both Vesuvius and Pompeii are within easy reach of Praiano, too. Day tours take about eight hours.

Numerous boat companies also offer skippered or self-driving/sailing packages to get you to Capri. â—?

O N E F I R E B E AC H

Don't miss the NaturArte Project – a series of mosaics and sculptures by local artists that adorn the houses that cling to the hillside turning the town into the open-air art gallery. Praiano's churches are worth more than a passing glance. The 11th century San Giovanni Battista offers beautiful mosaics inside and an eye-popping view. The vista from the broad terrace of lofty San Luca Evangelista to the endless blue will make you weep.

If you want a memorable Saturday night, the Africana nightclub, carved into a cave a stroll from the marina, has plenty of fans. Rumour has it Jackie Kennedy and the jet set used to arrive here by speed boat from Capri.

WHERE TO STAY \ Anywhere that has a view and that means most places. The popular Hotel Pellegrino has a warm family vibe. At Marina de Praia there are numerous apartments for rent.

The Church of San Gennaro in the town centre.

GETTING THERE \ Naples is the gateway to the Amalfi Coast. Most of the large airlines fly to Rome daily and have connecting flights. From Naples, bus or train to Sorrento then take a Sita bus to Praiano.

Private car transfers will take you door-to-door.

BUILDING

A

small house can be charming when you’re a loved-up couple happy to share a loo and a lounge room, but when you start a family, living in close quarters can be challenging.

Moving is always an option, but so many of us fall in love with where we live. Perhaps we have the world’s best neighbours, the world’s best coffee down the street or a brilliantly short commute to work.

“The cost of moving is kind of dead money,” says Sherbrooke Design and Construction director and owner Rob Drechsel. “You could put that money towards upgrading the home you live in.”

Sherbrooke helps Melbourne families re-invent their homes, either by renovating their existing dwelling or knocking it down to build anew.

“As the family dynamics change, kids grow up, quite often people need more space,” Drechsel says.

“Sometimes clients have been in their home for 10 years and it’s just a little bit weathered and tired.

They might think about moving but they’ve become entrenched where they are. They’ve got good neighbours, they live in a good suburb with good schools and they tend to want to stay put.”

Sherbrooke’s clients include families who want to add an extra bedroom, a second living room or music room as the kids get older.

With 30 years in the industry, Drechsel says he’s witnessed the shift from separate kitchens and dining rooms to more open-plan living, and from single living spaces to multiple zones that might include a rumpus room, study or parents’ retreat.

“House sizes have become bigger, and as the values of property increase, people are doing larger extensions,” he says.

Instead of modernising period homes, clients are now keen to retain the unique character of their dwelling and add a modern extension to the rear.

For houses that are “well and truly past their use-by date”, Drechsel says a knock-down rebuild

T O TA L M A K E OV E R

Your home reimagined has become an increasingly popular option.

“They’re becoming more and more prominent for dilapidated homes or homes lacking in style,” he says.

Drechsel says Sherbrooke’s point of difference is providing a design and build service in a bid to better match a client’s budget with their wish list.

“Quite often architects design something for the owner, but because they’re not builders they are only really guessing at the cost. We knew there must be a better way.”

Sherbrooke clients can choose from a drafting or an architectural consultancy service and receive a design concept, a generic scope of works and a

budget estimate to then figure out if they can afford their dream renovation. And with Sherbrooke guaranteeing the budget within five per cent, your lender can rest easy as your walls come tumbling down.

“We’re a one-stop-shop for your renovation, extension or new home,” Drechsel says. ● KATE FARRELLY

Hampton Street is so full of tasty tucker, it almost makes home entertaining superfluous. Why mess up your kitchen when one of Melbourne’s best eat streets is within a minute’s walk?

Step into this Californian bungalow, however, and the thought of hunkering down for a feast regains its oldfashioned allure. The house is spacious, designed for big gatherings of friends and for parties in all weather.

The current owners expanded on the old floor plan – swanky 1920s rooms off a central hall – and redesigned the rear as a modern living area opening to a vast deck below a pitched roof, and a glass-fenced pool facing north.

And if that orientation isn’t temptingly perfect, look at the geography. The beach, station, buses, Hampton Primary and Haileybury are quickly walkable.

Single-level, solid brick and gabled, the house presents a handsome face to Holyrood Street. An L-shaped verandah leads to a double-door entry. The living room, at the front, looks everlastingly good in original hardwood floorboards below an ornate ceiling and new bookcases. The brick fireplace was recently rebuilt.

Across the hall, a sunny study with sash windows and a double desk opens into the main bedroom. Parents will adore the main suite, a ’20s belle with a fireplace, walk-in wardrobe and fully-tiled en suite with Rogerseller tapware.

Two further bedrooms have wardrobes, and one has a corner fireplace. The main bathroom has a bath and shower, and there’s a powder room next to the laundry.

Here’s something to keep the chefs happily at home – a

Dr. Tony Stubbs, Eye Surgeon, says that just about anyone can have their vision restored and be rid of their glasses for most of the time. And this is without the use of laser surgery.

Dr Stubbs formerly at the Royal Victorian Eye Hospital who has worked with the Fred Hollows eye department at the Prince of Wales Hospital in Sydney, says he began his career through the inspiration of his father, Dr Maxwell Stubbs.

“My father was a pioneer in cataract implant surgery from 1963! He has now passed away but some of his patients still come in for a check-up. Not only is this inspirational, it also demonstrates that good surgery outlasts the surgeon,” Dr Stubbs says.

A specialist who helps people who have been advised they are unsuitable for laser surgery, Dr Stubbs is also committed to demonstrating that age, corneal distortion or astigmatism are no barriers to eliminating the need for glasses.

One of my best moments was treating a 12-year-old girl who was struggling at school because of poor vision due to congenital cataracts even with the use of thick glasses. Now 10 years later, she still has 20/20 vision without glasses. That inspires me.

“Seeing my patients’ bright smiles after surgery, as they stop squinting and can read without glasses, is definitely the best part of my job.”

No referral is needed and no out-of-pocket expenses are incurred for an assessment to enable all options available to be considered.
