A SENSE of mystery surrounds whether Latrobe City’s seven-day lockdown will be extended beyond the current deadline of 11.59pm tomorrow night.

Seven fresh cases were reported yesterday, lifting the current tally of active cases in the municipality to 46, 35 of which are in the 3844 postcode (Traralgon and district).

Despite the introduction of the snap lockdown by acting chief health officer Professor Ben Cowie with less than six hours’ notice on September 28, case numbers continue to climb.

As of last night, there were 10 Tier 1 exposure sites and 21 Tier 2 exposure sites, all of which are in Traralgon, Morwell and Moe. COVID-19 commander Jeroen Weimar, who visited Traralgon last week following the announcement of the lockdown, gave a glimpse into Latrobe City’s progress on Saturday.

“There is quite a stable pattern across the growth in the households we’ve been working with,” Mr Weimar said.

Earlier in the week, Mr Weimar said public health teams believed all the cases in the Valley were linked, with 19 households affected, and transmissions relating to an alleged AFL grand final party on September 25.

“It’s always a risk and a concern,” Mr Weimar said last Wednesday.

“It appeared there were a large number of people there. Our focus at the moment is to look after these individuals.”

Mr Weimar said no fines had yet been handed out for those who attended the gatherings in breach of the chief health officer’s directions.

“Ensuring people are open and honest about who they’ve been in contact with, so we can look after their friends and loved ones is far more important than handing out a bunch of fines,” he said.

Increased testing measures were put into place, with Ronald Reserve at Morwell East joining the Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports Stadium in Traralgon as drive-through centres.

Anyone who has visited a Tier 1 exposure site during the times listed must immediately isolate, get a COVID-19 test and quarantine for 14 days from the date of exposure regardless of the result.

An increase too, in the availability of vaccinations, which lifted Latrobe City’s current first dose vaccination rate from its last count of 73 per cent.

The state government announced the interval between the first and second doses of Pfizer would be reduced from six weeks to three weeks from today.

In addition, the Moderna COVID-19 vaccine was available to walk-ins aged 12-59 years, at the Traralgon Racecourse across Friday and Saturday.

Latrobe City was not the only regional community to experience the lockdown fate in the past week with Moorabool Shire and Greater Shepparton entering snap lockdowns on Friday.

As of last night, there were 425 active COVID19 cases in regional Victoria and 11,785 active cases across the state.

LRH ready to treat cases

Business not happy with snap decision on Valley TRARALGON Chamber of Commerce president Luke Henderson is slamming the state government for springing the snap seven-day lockdown on Latrobe City with little explanation.

Mr Henderson said many local businesses were confused at how the latest set of lockdown rules would apply to them when the announcement was made just before 7pm on Tuesday night.

“The feedback from the business community is frustration - everyone is COVID fatigued. We are opening and closing and businesses are on their knees through exhaustion,” Mr Henderson said.

“We ask the community to support their local businesses, now more than ever show that you care. Let’s hope this is only a seven-day lockdown as we need to get this town open.”

Mr Henderson said local businesses may have been able to better weather the past 18 months if lockdowns were rolled out in individual local government areas.

“This method should have been done from day one. For the past 18 months we’ve

been told the lockdown in local government areas wouldn’t work, but now we are in lockdown,” Mr Henderson said.

“If we were able to operate when there were zero cases in the Latrobe Valley then we would have been better off.”

Moe Traders Association secretary Sue Broadbent said morale was low and businesses were “feeling it terribly”.

Ms Broadbent said some Moe traders had been copping abuse from angry customers refusing to check-in with QR codes, and one salon was even targeted by anti-vax campaigners.

“Businesses are trying to survive and are on the edge, and then we have to cope with people like that who just abuse you,” she said.

But the Turn Back Time Café owner said she had been giving away meals to those doing it tough in the pandemic, with some locals donating money towards the cause.

Meanwhile, Advance Morwell chairman John Guy said traders have to “grin and bear it”, in the wake of reduced patron capacities in hospitality industries.

“Let’s hope we nip this in the bud and it will be over quickly,” Mr Guy said.

LatrobeCityLockdown

Mayor calls on residents to ‘‘be kind’’ in these times

By MICHELLE SLATER

LATROBE City Mayor Sharon Gibson is calling on residents to “be kind” to one another as the municipality was plunged into a snap seven-day lockdown.

Cr Gibson said she was “not surprised” when health officials made the call late on Tuesday, September 28 considering the numbers of local cases that emerged.

“I assumed we would go into lockdown and it was consistent with what the state government did in other regional areas when the number of cases went up,” Cr Gibson said.

However, Cr Gibson was also calling on locals to hold back from blaming people for rising cases in the Valley, particularly after cases have been linked to an alleged home gathering on Saturday, September 25.

“Now is not the time to point fingers, we need to work together and be kind to one another. We are a community. There are many people doing it tough,” she said.

“I’m concerned people are not coping, I’m not saying lockdown shouldn’t happen, I’m concerned about people’s mental health. It’s taking its toll and blaming people is not helping.”

Member for Morwell Russell Northe said it was “frustrating” that the lockdown was called at such short notice, with impacts on residents and local businesses.

But he said targeted lockdowns in local government areas was a “better proposition” than plunging the entire state into lockdown.

“This demonstrates that we didn’t need the levels of lockdown we’ve been having for many months and months on end,” Mr Northe said.

Nationals Member for Eastern Victoria Melina Bath also welcomed the targeted lockdown after her party had been pushing for LGA restrictions rather than statewide closures.

“We have seen the state government implement sensible regional lockdowns in Ballarat and other LGAs, by the nature of the outbreak, now it’s the Latrobe Valley’s turn,” she said.

“No one welcomes lockdowns, but it’s not surprising it occurred, it’s frustrating, and my heart goes out to the shops and businesses that have to close again.”

Kept busy: Cars were lined up around the block waiting to get tested in Traralgon on Wednesday.

Testing times: Locals getting swabbed at the Gippsland Indoor Regional Sports Stadium’s COVID testing site on Wednesday.

Ms Bath said this was an important time for Latrobe City to boost its flagging vaccination rates – particularly as 5000 extra vaccinations have been made available throughout the Valley.

She also thanked those who went out to get tested, and thanked the region’s first responders and testing station staff who “sprang into action” when the lockdown was announced.

“We praise people who checked the exposure sites to get tested. This is showing strong community spirit to protect each other and to be safe themselves,” Ms Bath said.

“There will always be a minority of those who choose to not follow the rules, but we need to focus on getting out of lockdowns. It’s not helpful to want retribution for these incidents.”

Tough times: Yinnar South hairdresser Maddie Hill marked a year since opening her salon in the midst of the pandemic. photograph michelle slater

Hairdresser hit hard by latest Latrobe lockdown

By MICHELLE SLATER

A YINNAR South hairdresser who took a punt by opening her own salon in the midst of the pandemic is determined to keep hanging on despite being plunged into repeated lockdowns.

Maddie Hill recently marked one year since she started up her boho-style salon on her parent’s rural property, but said this latest snap lockdown sparked “stress and anxiety”.

“I didn’t even know we were going into lockdown, there was no prior announcement and I thought this is pretty much f*****,” Ms Hill said.

“My brain shut down and goes to mush and I have to call all my clients to re-book appointments.”

Latrobe City went into lockdown just as hairdressers and beauty therapists in regional areas were about to have some restrictions eased around mask-wearing.

But Ms Hill said hairdressing was a lifelong passion and the only job she knew.

The hairdressing graduate lost her job at the start of the pandemic at a Traralgon hairdresser and struggled to find employment elsewhere before opening her own on-trend salon at home.

“I threw myself in the deep end and see if I sink or swim. Opening was quite intense, never in my right mind would I think opening a business in a pandemic would be a success,” she said.

“But then I was open for a month and we went into lockdown again and I thought OMG! What am I doing?

“Every time I go into lockdown I have a cry and a breakdown, and it takes me a few days to get into the right mind.”

Ms Hill was initially not eligible for any government financial supports and was battling to pay the bills.

However, she said as a sole trader working at home she did not have to worry about rent or keeping on any staff.

“I know other salon owners have struggled and had to close their doors. The beauty industry is losing a number of people wanting to work, but they can’t get into a positive frame of mind,” she said.

“But the community has been wonderful, most of my business is word-of-mouth and many are from the Latrobe Valley. Sometimes people travel from other areas to get to me. I feel truly blessed.”

Can you help: Traralgon Blood Donor Centre is on the hunt for 300 plasma donors this October as patient need for the life-saving “yellow” part of blood reaches record high levels.

On the hunt for yellow not just red in October TRARALGON Blood Donor Centre is on the hunt for 300 plasma donors this month as patient need for the life-saving “yellow” part of blood reaches record high levels.

A total of 7000 plasma medications and transfusions are sent to hospitals in Victoria every week, with a growing number of patients relying on them for the treatment of cancer, immune disorders, haemophilia, trauma, and kidney disease.

It can take up to 13 plasma donations to make a single dose of some plasma medicines and more than 12,000 patients need plasma medicines and transfusions every month across Australia. Many of them are clinically vulnerable people who have been shielded during the COVID-19 pandemic.

“We owe an enormous thank you to Gippsland locals who donated plasma during the pandemic and ensured Australian patients continued to

receive the plasma and plasma medications they needed,” Lifeblood spokesperson Sarah Lacey said.

“But despite locals from Gippsland donating more plasma than ever before, these patients need more people on their support team to get them through treatment.”

International Plasma Awareness Week, which runs from 4-8 October 2021, highlights the importance of plasma donation and recognises the role of plasma donors in saving and improving lives.

It also increases understanding about lifesaving plasma therapies to treat rare diseases.

“Donating plasma is simple,” Ms Lacey said.

“Donating even once, or just once more, will help ensure Australian patients get the medicines they need.”

To make an appointment or learn more about donating plasma, call 13 14 95 or visit lifeblood. com.au.

Advocate’s report

Hot property: Churchill’s West Place Shopping Centre was recently sold to a Sydney investor group.

photograph supplied

New owners sold on centre

By MICHELLE SLATER

CHURCHILL’S West Place Shopping Centre and Eastwood Village Shopping Centre in Bairnsdale have been separately sold to Sydney based investors for a combined value of $30 million.

The sales were handled by JLL Retail Investments directors Tom Noonan and Stuart Taylor, following the sales of Stockland Traralgon and Coles Morwell earlier this year.

Both centres were contracted sight unseen by the purchasers. JLL was unable to reveal the individual sale price of each shopping centre.

These latest deals added to one of the busiest years on record for Gippsland after more than $140 million had been spent on shopping centre transactions in the region.

West Place Shopping Centre is anchored by Woolworths and supported by 13 specialty shops.

The sale did not include the opposite side anchored by the IGA. Mr Noonan said the investor would be looking to improve the shopping centre and lure new retailers into the existing vacancies.

The property was sold on the behalf of local developer Minster Constructions and was acquired

by Sydney-based Revelop.

Revelop director Charbel Hazzouri said the Churchill shopping centre was a “strategic acquisition” that would allow them to build on the established local shopping precinct.

Mr Hazzouri said West Side offered “vast upside opportunities” without detracting from its convenience for locals.

“Revelop has a very optimistic outlook on neighbourhood shopping centres that are well located, convenient and offer a truly one stop

shop customer experience,” Mr Hazzouri told The Express.

JLL senior director Stuart Taylor said the transactions reflected strong demand from national investors for retail in Victorian regional areas.

Mr Taylor said the state’s regional property market was experiencing some of the most buoyant conditions on record.

He said this was due to the tree change trend emerging from the pandemic and government incentives offering a 50 per cent reduction in stamp duty for commercial property investments.

“The ongoing lockdowns in Melbourne and Sydney are exacerbating the flight of capital towards these defensive assets,” Mr Taylor said.

“We fully expect demand to stay at the current elevated levels, which is likely to result in further yield compression.”

LATROBE Health Advocate Jane Anderson has released a progress report on her 2020 action plan aimed at improving the region’s access to primary healthcare services.

In September last year, Anderson’s action plan Improving Access to Services in Latrobe was released.

The plan detailed opportunities, and demonstrated community commitment to improving access to GPs. Various stakeholders and agencies contributed to it’s development.

The original action plan has also been revised in the recent assessment, to ensure it remains in-step with current community needs.

“I am pleased to see that action is being taken to address the systemic underlying issues faced

by Latrobe communities in accessing primary healthcare services,” Ms Anderson said.

“There has been great bipartisan support of the action plan from politicians in Latrobe and across Gippsland, and local members have committed to ongoing discussions surrounding the changes needed to affect real and lasting change for the benefit of communities across the region.”

During the past 12 months, actions have been taken in line with the advocate’s plan.

According to the report, action has already been taken to improve training pathways for doctors, build digital literacy, promote the liveability of the Valley and reduce the burden on emergency departments by enabling new local system design and innovation.

Areas of ongoing opportunity have also been highlighted, the progress report states: “investment into longer term sustainable change with a view towards future population health trends and health system innovations are likely to achieve greater results.”

National Rural Health Commissioner, Ruth Stewart said the action plan had merits.

“The Latrobe Health Action Plan fills me with hope. Within its pages can be seen a deep level of community, consumer and clinician engagement with the complex issues of how to improve access to primary health care in a specific rural region in Victoria,” she said.

“I look forward to following the future development of the Latrobe Health Action Plan. I believe that it is a springboard for great change.”

Heavy rain in the Valley last week

BLUE skies at the weekend eased the immediate flood threat after heavy rain lashed the Latrobe Valley on Thursday.

The Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) site at Latrobe Regional Airport recorded 42.2mm of rain in the 24 hours up to 9am on Friday morning.

But higher falls were recorded in other parts, including Hazelwood North, which received upwards of 90mm.

Water was reported over the road in a number of locations, including Moe, Morwell, Traralgon South, Yinnar South, Churchill and Traralgon.

Morwell’s Crinigan Road was one of the major urban thoroughfares closed temporarily as water levels rose quickly throughout Thursday.

Other notable road closures were on Tyers Road, Walhalla Road and Maryvale Road.

A number of flood warnings were issued for Central Gippsland waterways.

A moderate flood warning was in place for the Latrobe River at Tom’s Bridge and Rosedale.

The Latrobe River at Tom’s Bridge peaked at 5.75m around 4pm on Friday, with the peak at Rosedale hitting 4.4m on Saturday night.

Traralgon Creek was the subject of a minor flood warning and peaked at close to 3.5m.

Fells Creek, Toongabbie.

The Moe River at Darnum peaked below the minor flood level of 3.5m, while it was a similar story for the peaks on the Tanjil River and Morwell River. But concerns still remain with predictions of a wet week ahead.

The BOM has forecast 5-8mm of rain in the Latrobe Valley today, 10-15mm of rain tomorrow, 1-5mm on Wednesday and 6-10mm on Thursday.

Traralgon East company fined by the EPA TRARALGON East company Crystal Dancer was fined more than $8000 by the Environment Protection Authority for keeping stockpiles of green waste that were too big and too close together.

EPA Gippsland manager Jessica Bandiera said compliance officers checked the site on Rocla Road and found 22 piles of green waste that included timber, woodchips, shavings, bark and mulches.

The inspection was part of an EPA fire prevention program that targeted hundreds of sites in Victoria.

“They found there were stockpiles more than 20 metres wide, which exceeds the size limits, and had inadequate separation distances between the piles,” Ms Bandiera said.

“With combustible waste and recyclable materials, stockpile separation is critical to enable Fire Rescue Victoria and CFA firefighters the access they need to safely control and supress fires.”

EPA officers found that the company had not taken all reasonable steps to manage and store this combustible waste to minimise the risk from fire.

Ms Bandiera said there were detailed documents for how to correctly deal with these materials on the EPA website.

“Businesses are given every opportunity to understand their responsibilities to the community and the environment,” Ms Bandiera said.

“EPA has zero tolerance to unsafe waste management practices including uncontrolled fire risks at waste and resource recovery sites.”

She said the EPA conducted routine inspections, as well as responding to pollution reports from the public.

“Many of them (are) unannounced, and it’s up to businesses to take every reasonable step to make sure they are doing the right thing,” she said.

Chester rules out a state tilt

By MICHELLE SLATER

FEDERAL Nationals Member for Gippsland Darren Chester has quashed speculation he was aiming for a crack at running for the seat of Morwell in next year’s Victorian state election.

But Mr Chester did confirm he had been approached by senior Nationals party figures to consider running for Morwell - a seat held by Independent and ex-National Russell Northe.

“I have carefully considered the suggestion, but believe I can best serve Gippsland and the Latrobe Valley by continuing my work in the federal parliament,” Mr Chester told The Express.

“The experience I have developed at a senior level in government has made me well-equipped to keep delivering outcomes for the Latrobe Valley

in whatever role I hold in federal parliament in the future.”

The former Veterans Affairs Minister recently announced he was having a breather from the National party room, in the wake of party leader Barnaby Joyce dumping him from the ministry earlier this year.

Mr Chester said he had been pre-selected as The Nationals candidate for the seat of Gippsland and intended to contest the next federal election to be held in the next 12 months.

“At the same time, I look forward to supporting The Nationals candidate in the state seat of Morwell, when the preselection is held,” he said.

“The Nationals have a strong and united team in Victoria that is standing up for regional

communities with sensible and well-balanced policies.”

Victorian party colleague and Member for Eastern Victoria Melina Bath said all state Nationals MPs in Gippsland had a “solid and great working relationship” with Mr Chester.

Ms Bath said she was “confident” Mr Chester would head into the next federal election with the Nationals.

“I would be highly surprised if he didn’t. He is doing an amazing job at representing Gippsland issues in Canberra, I will be pleased to see him continue to do this,” Ms Bath said.

Ms Bath said the Victorian party was yet to open its pre-selection process for next year’s state election.

Attempted child abduction in Moe A MOE man, 28, was arrested following an alleged attempted child abduction late last month.

The man approached a woman and her six-monthold child on George St, Moe at approximately 5pm on Saturday, September 28.

He allegedly began grabbing at the child and then allegedly attempted to take the child from the pram. However, the child was strapped in, and he was unable to do so.

When bystanders emerged from a nearby takeaway restaurant, the man fled up George

with Alyssa Fritzlaff

St. Shortly after, he was located and arrested.

The man has been charged with attempted child stealing, and is set to face Latrobe Magistrates Court at a later date.

The mother and child were uninjured.

Missing Traralgon man

TRARALGON man Ryan, 43, is missing.

Police are appealing for the public’s assistance to locate him. He was last seen in Lakes Entrance about 2am on Monday, September 27.

Ryan is medium height and build, with brown eyes and short dark hair. There are concerns for Ryan as he has a medical condition for which he requires medication.

Latrobe Valley Express Lesley Hogan

What is your business, and what is your role?

Advert rtising t manager at the Latrobe Valley Express. The Express publishes not only The Express newspaper, which contains themed features, but in addition many special publications that are target marketed to specific industries/serv rvices. v In some instances these publications are distributed to those specific to the industry ryy for pick up by their clients, and in other circumstances they are insert rted t into The Express across the full circulation, of 35,200 copies.

When and why did you start rtt your business?

I commenced employment with The Express in September 1996, making it 25 years this year. Initially working 20 hours to eventually full time. I have held the manager position for 13 years, and love every ryy minute.

On a personal level, what have you achieved with your business?

Forming great working relationships with clients, having them trust in you, and in the power of The Express in promoting their businesses across Latrobe.

What are some of the challenges you have faced in growing your business?

As with all print media, the impact of electronic media has been massively detrimental, and for some regional newspapers has seen the end for them. Local newspapers have always, and will always, be an integral part rtt in any community ty. y It’s what residents reach for to obtain in-depth report rting t by dedicated journalists.

COVID-19 has caused many diff fficulties f for businesses with lock-downs, restricted numbers and so on. How has COVID-19 aff ffected f your business, and what measures did you try ry y to overcome them?

The onset of COVID-19 in 2020 cert rtainly t bought many hardships to local businesses, and that included The Express. With many businesses closing due to lock-downs, others suffffering f severe restrictions, the advert rtising t percentage within the paper was heavily impacted and as a paper that is delivered free, this was a massive negative hit. The Express continued to publish two tw w editions per week, until recentlly, wh hen it became no longer sustaiinab ble in th his current markket. The deciisiion to remain a once per week publication into the future will be determiined d by markket trend ds as we workk our wayy through CO OVID-19 and it’s impacts.

What makes your business stand out from the res st? ?

As a newspaper that is delivered free this is cert rtainly t y becoming a rarity ty. y Most major mast heads are paid publications but the history ryy of The Express is somewhat difffferent. f It has,, and will continue,, to be provided as a free publication as that has become a community tyy expectation.

62 Queen Street, Warragul 0418 996 596

Name your favourite thing about your business? ?

As a community tyy minded person myself, it fits well with me that The Exp press also serv rves v as a wonderf rful f community tyy resource which is passionate about what’s going g on in their local community ty/ y council/sport rting t g clubss and d local bussinesssess and in Latrobe, The Exp press delivers this.

HOROSCOPES

news

news@lvexpress.com.au

by Joanne Madeline Moore

October 4 - October 10, 2021

Aries This week a partnership or joint venture could veer off in an unpredictable direction as Mercury reverses through your relationship zone.

Or a work colleague could surprise you by making a decision that seems like a backward step. And are you being rather lazy? With Mars (your power planet) and retrograde Mercury both transiting through lackadaisical Libra, you could find your motivation is missing and your adventurous streak has gone AWOL!

Libra Stylish Librans have a passion for fashion

Taurus You’ll experience the greatest satis-

faction if you share your professional dreams with other like-minded people. Collective collaboration is the key. But you need to think long-term and be patient. Do your best to get the balance right between being creative and being thorough; between having inspirational ideas and making practical progress. Mercury is in retrograde motion until October 18, which could disrupt your daily routine or stir up an old health issue.

Scorpio Expect a rather intense week as the New Moon, fiery Mars and retrograde Mercury stir up inner compulsions, submerged secrets and hidden resentments. You could also become obsessed about someone from your complicated past. Smart Scorpios will learn from your mistakes, let go and then move on. Inspiration for the week is from birthday great, actress Kate Winslet: “The good and bad things are what form us as people … change makes us grow.”

GGemini With Mercury (your ruling planet) in

Sagittarius g When it comes to your

retrograde mode (until October 18) expect travel disruptions, phone frustrations and/or computer chaos that will test your limited patience.

So how can you survive Mercury retro in a reasonably sane state of mind? Make sure you back-up all your computer files; allow plenty of time to get to appointments and catch flights; check and then double-check everything; and be incredibly adaptable. Plus maintain your sense of humour!

Cancer If you are crabby with friends or family members this week, then they will be in the mood to fight back! So do your best to be more compassionate and generous towards loved ones. Plus try to view a troubled close relationship from a much more philosophical perspective. As birthday great John Lennon observed: “We’ve got this gift of love but love is like a precious plant.

You’ve got to keep watering it. You’ve got to really look after it and nurture it.”

Leo You’re in the mood to talk, text, tweet,

publish and/or podcast as the New Moon, Mercury and Mars activate your communication zone. But with Mercury retrograde, make sure you convey your message clearly and concisely, otherwise misunderstandings are likely. Love planet Venus transits into your friendship and love zone (on Thursday) so Friday, Saturday or Sunday is a good time to organise a catch-up with your bestie or a romantic rendezvous.

Virgo g Does it feel as if your dreams are on

hold or your finances are going backwards? This week retrograde Mercury slows things down and increases frustrations. But then lucky Venus swoops in and encourages you to pair up with a loved one and make your combined dreams come true. You’ll need to be patient though! Your motto is from birthday great John Lennon: “A dream you dream alone is only a dream. A dream you dream together is reality.”

and Wednesday’s New Moon is in your sign. So it’s the perfect week to refresh your appearance via a hot new hairstyle, a make-up makeover or a creative wardrobe revamp. But with Mercury reversing through your sign (until October 18) and Venus (your patron planet) shifting into extravagant Sagittarius, watch that impulse buys don’t burn a big hole in your budget. Remember – some of the best things in life are free!

invollvement with a friend, acquaintance, colleague, client, customer, group, club or organisation, this week looks tricky as fiery Mars and retrograde Mercury stimulate your argumentative streak. So do your best to avoid aggravating others, especially from Thursday onwards when Venus transits into your sign. October 7th through until November 5th is the time to smoke the peace pipe as you socialise, compromise and sympathise.

Capricorn p Impulsive Mars and retrograde Merccury are disrupting your career plans and future aspirations. So Wednesday’s New Moon is the perfect time to revise, reassess and reboot.

Think of creative ways that you can navigate the unpredictable Covid landscape, adapt professionally and pivot personally. Draw inspiration from birthday great, actress and activist Susan Sarandon: “I take responsibility for the ups and downs of my life, and that is very liberating.”

Aquarius q Aquarians often feel restless,

rebeellious and agitated. This week, with the planets illuminating your philosophy zone, you need to slow down and look within as you contemplate, meditate and ruminate. Negotiation planet Venus also encourages you to hold out the olive branch of peace (especially to a stressed friend or colleague). So your motto for the moment is from birthday great, music legend John Lennon: “Turn off your mind, relax and float downstream.”

Protect our forest: Mirboo North community in the Arty Gras Parade

New report pinpoints forests conservation

By ALYSSA FRITZLAFF

PRESERVE Our Forests (PoF) Mirboo North community group has released a new report detailing the area’s biodiversity, socio-economic values and amenity.

The report calls for Mirboo North’s Immediate Protection Areas (IPAs) to be turned into a Nature Conservation Reserve and will be presented to the state government.

In the report, the group requests Mirboo North’s IPA forests be “urgently elevated to higher protection under law”.

The research was conducted by the PoF group from 2017 to 2020, and contains detailed information about the fauna and flora present in the area, collected primarily by volunteers.

The community has been greatly involved in activism surrounding environmental preservation, and since 2017 has participated in several surveys which examined their collective investment in the issue.

Preserve Our Forests Mirboo North chair Marg Thomas said they were “thrilled” to release the report.

Ms Thomas described the report as a “unique document containing a wealth of information and wonderful images of the Mirboo North forest – all of which will be a substantial reference source for generations to come.”

She highlighted the impact of area on local tourism, and explained that the Mirboo North community have always been invested in issues surrounding forest preservation.

Climate change is also an issue, and Ms Thomas

explained that forests play a significant role in carbon.

According to Climate Council, forest store large amounts of carbon, however “when these trees are cleared or burnt”, carbon is released back into the atmosphere.

The PoF report lists threatened species that currently reside within Mirboo North’s IPA including “the Greater Glider, Powerful Owl, Lace Monitor, and multiple crayfish species, as well as regionally significant and iconic species like the South Gippsland Koala, Superb Lyrebird and Platypus”.

Ms Thomas said “local volunteers were also able to effectively demonstrate the forest’s value to the wellbeing and economic security of the district”.

As part of the investigation into the area’s socio-economic values, the group examined the impact turning the forest into a Nature Conservation Reserve would have on the local tourism industry.

The report outlines the importance of the tourism industry: “In 2016/17 tourism brought an estimated $19.1 million in total to the Mirboo North Township and local area, with $12.2 million going directly to the town and $6.9 million indirectly to the local area”.

It was concluded by the group that the area is “a rich local asset which is vital to Mirboo North’s tourism industry and local economy, as well as to the growing regional tourism industry”.

The group hopes the report will lead to the Mirboo North Community being about live without the “threat of logging damaging this much loved community asset”.

Pisces Wednesday’s New Moon spotlights close relationships and trust issues. However, with Mercury stuck in retrograde mode, you could suffer from a lack of motivation, low libido or just plain exhaustion. So pace yourself Pisces and don’t take on too much. The weekend stars highlight sensual pleasures, intense negotiations and vivid dreams. But be careful you don’t blurt out something that you later regret. Think (carefully) before you open your mouth and speak!

HeadtoHelp for your mental health and wellbeing Since September 14, 2020, free HeadtoHelp services have helped thousands of Victorians, including Gippslanders, with their mental health and wellbeing.

When a person calls HeadtoHelp on 1800 595 212, an experienced mental health professional will listen and work with them to find the best ways to get the help they need.

health package to further enhance the mental health support available to Victorians during the COVID-19 pandemic.

HeadtoHelp is person-centred, recovery oriented and evidence-based, reflecting PHNs’ commitment to these principles.

Two hubs are currently supporting Gippslanders – HeadtoHelp Baw Baw in Warragul and HeadtoHelp Wellington in Sale.

HeadtoHelp uses the Initial Assessment and Referral Decision Support Tool (IAR-DST) – this is a series of clinical and social questions that help the trained intake team understand a person’s needs and what type of support or services will best help. A caller may be referred to existing services or if there is no existing service that is suitable, to one of the HeadtoHelp services which offer a multidisciplinary team to help with more complex mental health needs.

The HeadtoHelp central intake and hubs are operated by PHNs (Primary Health Networks) in cooperation with existing health services.

Depending on a person’s needs, they may:  be connected with suitable existing services  receive care at a HeadtoHelp hub, either onsite or through telehealth  be connected to specialist or acute mental health services, including into emergency care.

The unique HeadtoHelp model of care has been jointly developed by Victoria’s PHNs in collaboration with the Australian Government.

PHNs are primarily funded by the Australian Government to improve health care and support people receive from health services.

The Australian Government invested $26.9 million to establish a central phone intake service and 15 HeadtoHelp hubs as part of the Australian Government’s $31.9 million mental

The HeadtoHelp model draws upon insights from consultations conducted by PHNs with people with lived experience of mental illness, consumers, clinicians and other experts.

HeadtoHelp is a unique service; a further step towards integrating the mental health system and coordinating care for people, when and where they need it most.

Please check in Recovery challenges and with your loved ones and mates resilience

National Mental Health Month is an initiative of the Mental Health Foundation Australia (MHFA) to advocate for and raise awareness of Australian mental health.

It is an important time where the Australian community comes together to raise awareness and promote better mental health for all.

Throughout this month, many events have been organised in each state of Australia aiming to attract and unite Australians of all ages and backgrounds to raise awareness and promote better mental health for all.

This year’s theme will focus on raising awareness about mental health in various industries.

Every industry has faced and many are still facing unprecedented challenges due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

With this theme in mind, we aim to extend our

campaign even wider than previous years, with events planned to embrace many different community groups and people of all ages walking on the road to recovery and fostering resilience #ResilienceAndRecovery.

That’s the message from local MP Darren Chester to help anyone struggling with their mental health.

“The past 18 months has brought more than our share of challenges and we cannot underestimate the health impact of events like the summer bushfires, floods, storms and the coronavirus pandemic,” Mr Chester said.

“We need to keep supporting one another in any way we can. For some, accessing professional mental health support will be important.”

October is National Mental Health Month. Mr Chester says that’s a perfect time to check in with others.

“It may seem daunting, but please reach out and make use of the many professional services

available, there is no shame in seeking help” Mr Chester said.

“Mental health is just as important as physical health and it must be prioritised the same way.

“There are many mental health services available: there’s simply no need to go it alone.”

Gippsland is now home to two mental health hubs – one in Warragul and one in Sale – to help people find the right service for their needs and provide onsite support or assistance via telehealth and appointments can also be made for services in Bairnsdale, Lakes Entrance, Leongatha and Traralgon.

For those looking for support and unsure where to turn visit www.headtohealth.gov.au for helpful resources and support.

The Guide ADAM & POH’S MALAYSIA IN AUSTRALIA SBS Food,Thursday, 8.30pm

Like cookies and cream, garlic with pasta and cheese with potato, could this be a match made in foodie heaven? Former MasterChef stars and stalwarts of the Aussie food scene Adam Liaw and Poh Ling Yeow unite for this new series. The fun-loving chefs explore the best of Malaysian cuisine in Australia, and how the two cultures intertwine, across six episodes. Adam and Poh begin in Tasmania, with some of the best seafood in the world, as Adam dives for abalone and sea urchin. Expect an Aussie twist on Malaysian favourites, such as beef rendang, in this lip-smacking travelogue.

GRANTCHESTER ABC TV, Saturday, 7.30pm

CSI: VEGAS 10, Sunday, 9pm

LOVE ISLAND AUSTRALIA Nine, Monday, 8.45pm

Whether you are a diehard James Norton fan, a convert to the charms of relative newcomer Tom Brittney, or an admirer of Robson Green (pictured, right, with Brittney), there’s something for everyone in Grantchester, even if you pine for the old days of Norton. As this British period drama has developed over five seasons, its charisma and heart have stuck around, even as much-loved actors have departed. In this season, Brittney really lays on the charm. Tonight, in the second episode of the fresh instalment, Will (Brittney) and Geordie (Green) negotiate a complex family dispute involving a local adoption agency. Storm clouds gather for Leonard (Al Weaver) when a threatening letter arrives.

Good things do come to those who can’t let go of their favourite TV characters from yesteryear. More than 20 years since the original CSI: Crime Scene Investigation premiered and ran for 15 seasons, the sequel has landed.

Two of the series’ fan favourites, detectives Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle (William Petersen and Jorja Fox, both pictured), are back and appear to be as cosy as ever. In a move that will make fans’ goosebumps even bigger, the show’s original theme song is back and is guaranteed to let loose a flood of memories. Grissom and Sidle arrive to help a team of Sin City-based CSI agents who are facing an existential threat. Everyone looks older, but will it be the same?

Host Sophie Monk returns with her dry wit, megawatt smile and bombshell wardrobe for the third season of this reality dating bonanza, but the same can’t be said for the exotic island location promised in the show’s title – previous seasons have taken place in Mallorca and Fiji.

Nevertheless, we’ve all become adept at compromise and adapting during the pandemic, which has closed the door on international travel. In the season three premiere, the gaggle of singles heads to a villa in northern NSW where they hope to find a match and resist the temptation of new potential partners to win the public’s affection, and the $50,000 prize.

It’s no small feat.

LOOKING BACK THROUGH THE YEARS manage any transition in the Valley in terms of reskilling.”

By GREGOR MACTAGGART

WELCOME to the latest instalment of Looking Back Through The Years.

Here’s what was making news in the pages of The Express during these points of our proud history.

NUMBERS TO BOOST POLICE PATROLS

Five new frontline police officers will be patrolling the Latrobe Valley by the end of the month.

The boost to frontline numbers, which is part of an additional 400 officers allocated across Victoria, are expected to ease strapped resources, according to a senior officer.

Morwell Superintendent Tess Walsh said the boost to frontline officers would increase foot, bike and car patrols surrounding Traralgon’s nightclub precinct.

‘DUD’ $10

It’s hard to tell, but a $10 note being inspected

by Kevin Cain, manager of the Commonwealth Bank in Morwell, is only worth the paper it is on.

The note is a forgery and was detected by a teller last Friday morning.

The note was included in a deposit being made by a representative of a Morwell business.

It was the first counterfeit note detected at the bank.

Office bearers are E.A Charleston of Morwell president, Cr J. Dwyer (Moe) senior vice-president, Cr J. Tabuteau (Moe) junior vice-president and from Newborough, J. Graham treasurer, I.E Wolstencroft secretary and G. Randle assistant secretary.

The match of the round in the TDCA will be between Churchill and Rovers at Andrews Park, with both teams lining-up with similar combinations to last season.

The CGCA season opens with the traditional rematch of last season’s grand final between Yallourn North and Latrobe.

SEC ‘SHALLOW’ ON OPEN CUT RESTORE PLANS

The Latrobe Valley Community Forum has accused the SEC of adopting a ‘very superficial’ approach to open cut rehabilitation planning.

VCFL EYES LEAGUE REVAMP

A total merger between the West Gippsland and Gippsland Latrobe football leagues was yesterday the latest recommendation from the Victorian Country Football League (VCFL) to ensure the future of elite football in the region.

But while there was some interest in the proposal from the Latrobe Valley, the merger was slammed in West Gippsland and is now facing a similar fate to two earlier VCFL recommendations.

The new competition – the West Gippsland Latrobe Football Netball League – would be split into two divisions of nine teams, with no promotion or relegation system.

CONTRACT FOR CLOSURE

Latrobe Valley power stations interested in closing as part of the federal government’s carbon pricing package would not begin being phased out until at least 2016, Energy Minister Martin Ferguson has revealed.

The federal government has begun calling for expressions of interest from generators interested in participating in its contract for closure program, which aims to remove 2000 megawatts of high emitting capacity by 2020.

“There could be expressions of interest from the Latrobe Valley, but in terms of the contract for closure, there is no bottomless pit of taxpayers’ money,” Mr Ferguson said.

“Having a phased transition allows us to

LOVISON LEAD

Police have unearthed a new and potentially pivotal lead in the mysterious death of Newborough man Jarrod Lovison.

Investigators now believe the 37-year-old was last seen alive with his green mountain bike, which remains missing, in the early hours of April 16.

It was initially thought the last sighting of Mr Lovison, who cut an imposing figure at seven-feet-tall, occurred the evening prior when he was captured on CCTV visiting Kmart and Woolworths in Moe.

VALLEY TOUTED AS IDEAL SPOT

The Latrobe Valley is an ideal site for a Renewable Energy Industrial Precinct (REIP) to create new manufacturing opportunities, according to climate change think tank Beyond Zero Emissions.

BZE hosted a briefing last week with investors representing more than $150 billion in private capital, as well as Latrobe City Council, Latrobe Valley Authority and energy sector representatives.

BZE lead researcher Michael Lord said the Valley was one of a series of clusters that could host a REIP, opening up opportunities for new and existing energy-intensive businesses from renewables.

No fresh cases of infectious hepatitis have occurred in Traralgon in the last couple of weeks according to the city’s chief medical officer Dr T. McLean.

He reported five cases of infectious hepatitis in the Traralgon East area to last week’s council meeting.

Outbreaks occurred occasionally, but the Latrobe Valley had not been as badly affected as other districts, he said.

Personal hygiene was a major factor in preventing the disease, he said.

What began as a pipedream two years ago hit home as reality last Thursday with A-League soccer club Melbourne Heart officially announcing it would play a home and away fixture in Morwell in December.

Heart chief executive Scott Munn, Football Federation Australia board member Jack Reilly and Latrobe City Mayor Darrell White made the highly-anticipated announcement at Latrobe City Soccer Stadium, where the Heart will play Wellington Phoenix on Sunday, December 4.

Be a part of the BioBlitz

CITIZEN scientists are being invited to help catalogue and celebrate Latrobe City’s biodiversity in the Great Southern BioBlitz 2021.

Nature lovers of all ages are identifying as many species of flora and fauna as possible in the international project in September and October.

Locals can participate in BioBlitz 2021 by downloading the iNaturalist smartphone app to record and upload photos of local plants and animals in their towns.

More than 50 Latrobe City residents jumped on the experiment in its opening week, making more than 1700 observations and identifying more than 650 separate species.

Latrobe City Mayor Sharon Gibson said BioBlitz was a great way to encourage community members to enjoy the outdoors and celebrate the arrival of spring.

“By contributing your photos you can help researchers all over the world track changes in biodiversity,” Cr Gibson said.

“It’s the perfect way to interact with nature in your local area and learn a thing or two along the way.”

Cr Gibson said Latrobe City’s reserves, parks and gardens could be ideal places to find interesting plants, animals, fungi and insects to photograph.

“You could even have a look around your own backyard, or explore your nearest rail trail for inspiration,” she said.

To take part, download the iNaturalist app and sign up and create a profile, then join the Great Southern BioBlitz 2021- Latrobe City project.

EPA fines company

A WILLOW Grove chicken company has copped an $8000 EPA fine after complaints about smelly chook poo from two excessive manure stockpiles.

EPA issued CD & AM Schmidt and Sons Pty Ltd - operating under the name South East Organic Fertiliser - with a Pollution Abatement Notice to bring the stockpiles within the allowed limits.

EPA Gippsland regional manager Jessica Bandiera said officers began an investigating the Sale Road site after members of the public reported an unpleasant odour to the EPA hotline.

Ms Bandiera said officers found two large stockpiles of chicken manure mixed with feathers and wood chips.

“One stockpile was more than 60 metres long, 20 metres wide and five metres high. Both stockpiles exceeded the size limits set out in EPA’s management and control of combustible waste guideline, designed to protect the environment

and the community, and there was a strong, acrid odour,” she said.

Ms Bandiera said the company was given two chances to comply after it was granted an extended deadline from the original compliance notice.

“But when officers returned after the extended deadline, the stockpiles still did not comply,” she said.

“The size limits and other rules for stockpiling combustible and recyclable waste materials are easily available on the EPA website, and they are there to protect the public and Victoria’s environment.

“The message to all businesses in this case is that any member of the public has the power to report pollution, and EPA will investigate and enforce the law.”

Ms Bandiera said the site operator must still carry out the requirements of the Pollution Abatement Notice, on top of paying the hefty fine.

Regional Victoria unemployment rate has dropped

NEW data shows regional Victoria’s unemployment rates have dropped more than any other state, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS).

Now sitting at only 3.2 per cent, data shows unemployment rates in regional areas have lowered by 1.1 per cent.

Treasurer Tim Pallas said that regional Victoria doesn’t just have the lowest unemployment of all the states, “it has the lowest rate of all time”.

August 2021 statistics indicated that the overall unemployment rate in the country is 4.5 per cent, a decrease of 0.1 per cent since July 2021.

“We are getting thousands of people into work through employment programs like our $619 million Jobs Victoria initiative, which will help thousands of people find work and gain economic independence,” Employment Minister Jaala Pulford said.

The Jobs Victoria initiative was established as part of the 2020/21 state budget, intended to move jobseekers into long-term work.

In August, 29,000 people found work in Victoria.

This was also the largest increase in any state.

Since recent lockdowns, the ABS reported that significant falls were observed in NSW. According to Bjorn Jarvis, head of labour statistics at the ABS, in NSW “employment and hours down by 210,000 people and 13.0 per cent since the beginning of the lockdown in late June”.

Over the May/June lockdowns in Victoria, the state government provided $4.2 billion in cash grants to 145,000 businesses.

Treasurer Pallas commended how well regional Victoria was performing.

“Our economy is much like regional Victoria – resilient,” he said.

“While we acknowledge this has been an unprecedented time for businesses and workers, these numbers are testament of your attitude and work ethic to simply get on with it.”

Gippsland Rotary plaque a permanent thank you Water seeks customers feedback

GIPPSLAND Water is asking its customers to share their feedback this month as part of its annual customer satisfaction survey.

A sample of customers will receive a phone call and be asked to complete a 10-minute survey and share their thoughts on Gippsland Water’s services.

Gippsland Water managing director Sarah Cumming said the organisation had been speaking to its customers a lot recently, and the annual customer satisfaction survey was another chance for customers to have their say.

“We’ve been seeking customer input into two important plans we’re working on – our 2022 Urban Water Strategy and our 2023 Price Submission, which will set our direction for the next five years and beyond,” Ms Cumming said.

“This survey will add to those insights and further help us to make decisions about our services and infrastructure for the future.

“It also lets us know if we’re hitting the mark and if there are areas where we need to improve.”

This annual customer satisfaction survey has been organised with six other Victorian water corporations to save costs.

It commenced started on September 27 and will continue for six weeks.

Australian-based contractors Insync and TKW will phone a random sample of 400 residential customers from each participating water corporation’s service area.

TKW Research will clearly identify themselves and will not being selling any product or service.

Customers can find other opportunities to have their say at www.gippswater.com.au/ lets-talk

Thank you: Mike Answerth (past president of Morwell Rotary Club), Lyn Reid (secretary of Morwell Centenary Rose Garden Committee), David McInnes (president of Morwell Rotary Club) and Bev McGuire (acting chair of Morwell Centenary Rose Garden Committee) noting the installation of the Rotary Acknowledgment Plaque. photograph supplied

A COMMEMORATIVE plaque has been installed in the Morwell Centenary Rose Garden to acknowledge our local medical, hospital and other health personnel for their dedication during the past two years, bringing the Latrobe Valley community safely through the COVID-19 pandemic.

An initiative from the Rotary Club of Morwell, the plaque has been in planning for several months as part of the club’s vocational service portfolio.

“This plaque is a good fit for our Rose Garden, which is one of Morwell’s most valuable assets,” club president David McInnes said.

Originally, an unveiling event and afternoon tea was intended for the public and representatives from all medical, hospital, ambulance, pharmacy, and other related organisations.

However, this plan was stalled and postponed by intermittent lockdowns.

It became clear that public attendance would not be possible.

Despite these challenges, support for this project held strong in the Morwell Rotary Club and was extended over two Rotary years, ext supported by last year’s club president, Mike Answerth, p and this year’s club president, a David McInnes, and their D boards. b In lieu of a public event, a smaller gathering was held rrecently to note the installation oof the Rotary Acknowledgement Plaque, attended by members of P tthe Rotary Club of Morwell and tthe Morwell Centenary Rose Garden Committee.

G Gloria Auchterlonie, who nitiated the project as past in vocational servi service ce director d for the Morwell Rotary Club, was among the attendees.

“Despite public attendance not possible on this occasion, the most important thing is that the plaque is now permanently placed in the beauty and quietude of our Rose Garden. It’s an everlasting tribute to our medical and hospital personnel for all to see and appreciate in years to come,” Mrs Auchterlonie said.

Health & Safety Month October 2021 INNOVATION ADDS SAFETY AT LOY YANG B

Loy Yang B Power Station’s vision for safety in the workplace applies to all its employees, contract workers and visitors. Safety is at the forefront of everything that the power station does. Even if a job is urgent, there is always time to do it safely.

Loy Yang B’s safety vision – ‘Everyone, every day, every job - zero harm,’ sets the foundation for its day-to-day operations, business plans, and health and safety initiatives. It is supported by three safety principles which are ‘We speak up for safety,’ ‘We always stop and think’ and ‘We don’t cut corners.’

In 2019, Loy Yang B implemented a ‘Safety Value Add’ program. A Safety Value Add is any activity which benefits Loy Yang B and aligns with its safety vision and principles. The program encourages everyone working at the site to brainstorm ideas to control or eliminate risks or hazards, resulting in a safer workplace for all.

Loy Yang B General Manager Tony Hicks said employees had embraced the Safety Value Add

concept and integrated it into their daily activities.

“This program has engaged our employees and got them thinking of solutions and innovations to control or eliminate hazards, many of which have been present for a long time,” he said.

“The program uses an inclusive approach, encouraging all staff to think about how they could genuinely improve safety, and gives them a sense of ownership to implement safety outcomes.”

Improvements have been made by way of equipment redesign to reduce manual handling hazards or lower the risk of injury from dropped objects, and have also been created in response to external events such as the Gippsland bushfires and the coronavirus pandemic. These include:  Modifying air conditioning systems to reduce bushfire smoke from entering buildings.  Chemical and Environmental staff shifting to manufacture personal hygiene and cleaning products for use at Loy Yang B due to

worldwide shortages at the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic.  Introduction of a COVID-19 contact tracing device to rapidly identify close contacts who would need to isolate should a positive COVID case be detected at Loy Yang B, minimising the risk of infection spread.  Information sessions by experts to help staff manage their mental wellbeing during the COVID pandemic and make informed decisions on COVID vaccination.

Improvements made within the power plant under the Safety Value Add program include:  Improved safety inside the boiler in the form of a net that catches any dropped objects, adding an extra layer of protection to people working at all levels of the boiler during maintenance activities.  Additional protection to gas offtake doors in the form of tarps to prevent materials falling from height.  Tailor-made panels which can be used in areas

where there is a risk of tools falling though grid mesh within the power plant.

 Design of a device for screw removal and replacement which reduces manual handling risks.  Improvements to on-site traffic management in the form of solar powered radar and speed sensing LED signs to allow for better identification of speed limits, improved safety for pedestrians and the ability to easily advise of lowered speed limits during busy times.

Mr Hicks said all of these activities had contributed to an increased level of safety at Loy Yang B. “Safety is the main focus of everything we do and it is wonderful to see that our employees are using their innovation skills to implement initiatives that benefit everyone,” he said.

Health & Safety Month October 2021 CRYSTALLINE SILICA AND SILICOSIS

Crystalline silica (silica) is found in sand, stone, concrete and mortar.

It is also used to make a variety of products including composite stone used to fabricate kitchen and bathroom benchtops, bricks, tiles and some plastics.

WHAT IS CRYSTALLINE SILICA? Silica is silicon dioxide, a naturally occurring and widely abundant mineral that forms the major component of most rocks and soils.

There are non-crystalline and crystalline forms of silicon dioxide.

The most common type of crystalline silica is quartz (CAS 14808-60-7).

WHAT IS SILICA DUST? Silica dust is generated in workplace mechanical processes such as crushing, cutting, drilling, grinding, sawing or polishing of natural stone or man-made products that contain silica.

Some dust particles can be so small that they are not visible; these are commonly referred to as respirable particles.

Respirable silica dust particles are small enough to penetrate deep into the lungs and can cause irreversible lung damage.

Examples of work activities that can generate respirable silica dust particles include:  During fabrication and installation of composite (engineered or manufactured) stone countertops  Excavation, earth moving and drilling plant operations  Clay and stone processing machine operations  Paving and surfacing  Mining, quarrying and mineral ore treating processes  Tunnelling

 Construction labouring activities  Brick, concrete or stone cutting; especially using dry methods  Abrasive blasting (blasting agent must not contain greater than 1 per cent of crystalline silica)  Foundry casting  Angle grinding, jack hammering and chiselling of concrete or masonry  Hydraulic fracturing of gas and oil wells.  Pottery making.

CHOOSING THE BEST MEASURES Managing risks and worker exposures to silica can be achieved by selecting and implementing measures using the hierarchy of controls:  Substitution such as sourcing composite stone benchtops with a lower percentage of silica  Isolation of the hazard – using principles of safe work design to designate areas for tasks that generate dust and appropriate worker positioning during these tasks, using enclosures and automation to conduct dust generating tasks  Engineering controls that minimise the risk of exposure to generated dust, for example, local exhaust ventilation, water suppression (wet cutting) or using tools with dust collection attachments  Should a risk still remain; administrative controls, including good housekeeping policies, shift rotations and modifying cutting sequences  Should a risk still remain; personal protective equipment including appropriate respiratory equipment (generally a minimum of a P2 efficiency half face respirator) and work clothing that does not collect dust.

More than one control will normally be required to adequately protect workers.

‘Frustration’ led to break from Nats MY decision to ‘take a break’ from The Nationals Federal Parliamentary party room meetings and organised activities will allow me to focus more on the issues impacting Gippslanders.

The decision was made out of sadness and frustration with the Federal party and is no reflection whatsoever on the Victorian Nationals.

Quite the opposite: if the Federal party room actually operated as a united team and focused on the issues that impact all regional Australians, I would not be in this position.

It follows months of frustration with the repeated failure of the Federal leadership to even attempt to moderate some of the more disrespectful and offensive views expressed by a minority of colleagues.

Freedom of speech also comes with responsibilities, particularly for public figures.

Some of my colleagues have failed to meet the standard that Australians expect from their elected parliamentarians.

Removing myself from that party room environment is intended to provide some time to reflect on issues of significant concern, seek input from locals, and consider the best pathway forward when Federal Parliament resumes in late October.

The Nationals Federal Parliamentary party room needs to reform the way it operates for the good of all regional Australians.

We need a strong voice representing the interests of regional Australia but it needs to be a sensible voice.

Going forward, my primary responsibility remains to represent the views of Gippslanders in Federal Parliament and deliver results for our community.

I’ve been honoured to have that role for 13 years and intend to contest the next election as The Nationals endorsed candidate for Gippsland.

I am completely focused on the local issues that impact Gippslanders on a daily basis.

Our recovery from natural disasters and the coronavirus is an ongoing challenge, and delivering the services and infrastructure we

need in a timely manner requires constant advocacy and lobbying by my local team.

Darren Chester, Federal Member for Gippsland

There is a newer act

WHILST I agree with Merv Geddes about the importance of taking Occupational Health and Safety Laws and Regulations seriously, he’s living in the distant past by referring to the 1985 Act. The current act in Victoria is the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2004 and the current Regulations came into force in 2017.

Cameron Baker, Morwell

Dees glory days a reminder

FOR the past 57 years since the Melbourne Dees won their last VFL/AFL Cup, I have been reminiscing and pondering when their next one would eventuate.

During that time, then going back to grand final day in 1964, there was a pop song that made it to the top of the record charts by a female artist named Sandie Shaw.

The song that many oldies would remember was ironically titled ‘’There’s Always Something There To Remind Me’’.

Jim Muscat, Yallourn North

Come on Mr Chester

THROUGH jobs in the power stations and running small businesses whose customers also work in those jobs, my family and I worry deeply that Green ideas have become too powerful in this country.

People demonise coal, but fail to point to a credible alternative of equal affordability and reliability.

Most of us worry about our livelihoods and the local economy, including the economic wellbeing of our friends and neighbours who run small

businesses in the area who are simply having a go to ‘get a go’ as Prime Minister Scott Morrison said at the last election.

That doesn’t make us right wing extremists, which Darren Chester seems to think coal supporters are after quitting the National Party to protest against the pro-coal beliefs of his Queensland colleagues.

In fact, most of us are not very party political.

So, to Darren Chester, as our local member, show some respect and represent us instead of attacking us.

That’s meant to be your job as our MP. Arielle Day, Churchill

Disappointment at Mr Chester’s decision

I WAS concerned and disappointed to read the news reports that our Federal member Darren Chester has left the Federal Nationals partyroom because his efforts to “moderate” the comments of his Queensland colleagues Matt Canavan and George Christensen had failed.

When Mr Chester talks about “moderating” others’ comments, those of us who have immigrated to Australia after fleeing undemocratic countries which lack freedom of speech know that this is just a code word for censoring and silencing political opponents.

Australia is at its best when it embraces free speech, which includes respecting the right of others to express views you might dislike or disagree with.

That is called tolerance, and is why my family chose to call Australia home.

To do otherwise is immature, thin-skinned and dangerous, and undermines our democratic freedoms.

As an immigrant to this country, Mr Chester, please listen when I say that attempting to silence others is undemocratic and dangerous.

If you were truly confident that your own ideas and beliefs were correct, you would not shy away from debate, but that is what you have done by leaving the partyroom and quitting the party’s group messenger chats.

Etiquette for guide and service dogs

"

" " "

"

GUIDE dogs are the guiding eyes for people who are blind or visually impaired. Service dogs are assistance dogs for people with disabilities other than blindness. These dogs are specially bred and trained for this most important job. There are several guidelines people should follow when in the presence of a guide or service dog to allow for the safety of the dog and its handler.

Disregarding these guidelines can distract the dog, which can create a dangerous situation for the dog and its handler.

It’s also important to know, that under the Commonwealth Disability Discrimination Act, 1992, people with disabilities are allowed to be accompanied by their guide or service dog in all places the public is permitted.

1. Please don’t touch, talk, feed or otherwise distract the dog while he is wearing his harness or vest. You should allow the dog to concentrate and perform for the safety of his handler.

2. Don’t treat the dog as a pet; give him the respect of a working dog.

3. Speak to the handler, not the dog. Some handlers will allow petting, but be sure to ask before doing so. If allowed, don’t pat the dog on the head; stroke the dog on the shoulder area.

Reminder: Traralgon’s Philip Chalker has provided an etiquette for guide and service dogs in today’s letters to the editor. file photograph If the handler says no when you ask to pet the dog, don’t be offended. The dog (or handler) might be having a bad day, or he might be in a hurry. Remember, a service dog is as vital to a disabled person as a wheelchair or cane. You wouldn’t ask to pet their wheelchair or get mad if they wouldn’t let you pet their cane.

4. You should not give the dog commands; allow the handler to do so.

5. Guide and service dog teams have the right of way.

6. Don’t try to take control in situations unfamiliar to the dog or handler, but please assist the handler upon their request.

7. When walking with a guide or service dog team, you should not walk on the dog’s left side, as it may become distracted or confused. Ask the handler where you should walk. Depending on the situation, they may ask you to walk ahead of them on their right side, or behind them by their right shoulder.

8. Never attempt to grab or steer the person while the dog is guiding or attempt to hold the dog’s harness. You should ask if the handler needs your assistance and, if so, offer your left arm.

9. Try not to be overprotective or overbearing when the graduate first arrives home with the new dog. Be thoughtful, patient, and try to inspire confidence in the handler. In time, you will admire the expertise of the team.

10. Don’t expect too much too soon, remember, the dog is young and that complete harmony and confidence takes patience, perseverance and time.

11. Never give the dog table scraps. You should respect the handler’s need to give the dog a balanced diet, and to maintain its good habits.

12. Don’t allow anyone to tease or abuse the dog, allow it to rest undisturbed.

13. Make sure not to allow your pets to challenge or intimidate a guide dog. You should allow them to meet on neutral ground when all parties can be carefully supervised.

14. A guide and service dog should not jump on furniture or go in areas of a home not mutually agreed upon by the family or handler.

You can ask the handler to correct any errant behaviour or trespassing.

15. Never let the dog out of the house unsupervised, and be sure that all doors and/or gates are closed to prevent the dog from exiting your property.

16. The Guide Dog must not be the centre of attention.

17. Please ensure your pet dog is on a leash or under control when near a Guide Dog. 18. If you see a loose Guide Dog, please contact the local council.

19. According to government legislation, you must allow a Guide Dog to go anywhere that the person working with it can go.

20. Guide Dogs are fully vaccinated and health-checked regularly.

Rainfall history

HISTORICAL rainfall data from Moe Gippsland Water dating back to 1897, shows the highest rainfall for September was 68.3mm on the 19 September 1957.

Unfortunately this recording was decommissioned late in 2018.

I have been using the statistics for the morning breakfast show on Gippsland FM 104.7 in the Moe area for last four years.

John Wasiukiewicz, Moe

Online comments RAFT OF NEW LATROBE CITY TIER 1 EXPOSURE SITES ANNOUNCED Julie Brogan: It’s also an issue as some places don’t show up under their actual business name. For example, I know I have been to food co. so I went to check my history and Food Co. doesn’t show! It took me a while to find it - it shows as 217 Franklin Street, not as Food Co. People could easily miss if they have been to an exposure site, as when you search your history through the app, it won’t show up, if the business name isn’t listed correctly.

Nina Bajada: Gee these people getting around.

Chris Annells: Government website says different?

Michael McLeod: That’s unfortunate.

WET DAY IN THE VALLEY Axella Johannesson: People in flood-prone areas would have already begun sandbagging, no doubt! I hope no one is waiting for an engraved invitation to arrive by special messenger!

Col Richards:Yep, the paddocks are already loaded and we’ve still got two weeks of rainfall ahead of us.

Erny Ernst: 52mm since 4pm yesterday at Churchill - Hazelwood Road Closed, Tramway Road intersection with Hazelwood Road flooded, Monash Way flooded.

Bec Marmo: My back yard is flooded in Trafalgar, it’s like the local pool.

Michelle Lenser: We’re in Churchill.. NO puddles in the yard before i went to bed at 11 pm.. woke up at 6.. took the dog out and MASSIVE puddle of a front yard.

Rowen Earl: Good weather to be in a seven-day lockdown.

Bounchanh Vannapraseuth: COVID, earthquake, rain, what next?

Mary Smith: My backyard in Newborough.

James Ruff: 93.5mm so far since midnight in Hazelwood North.

MINOR FLOOD WARNINGS ISSUED FOR CENTRAL GIPPSLAND WATERWAYS Gloria Harbridge: My husband just came in from Toongabbie. He said there is water over one lane at Fraser’s Lane. I think he said that road. I have seen it there in the past. I am guessing the left lane heading to Toongabbie.

Luke Bell: Government certainly wants Latrobe locked down. Sending floods as a deterrent.

Emma Boland: Good thing lockdown means we don’t have much reason to go anywhere huh? Hoping everyone’s homes stay dry this time.

Nicole Lee Smith: Why not. What else can they throw at us?

PETER’S STERLING SERVICE HONOURED Paul Roberts: No doubt he probably kicked me out of his class. I hope I didn’t contribute too much to his grey hair. Great effort Peter.

Caz L Lia: This is awesome. Congratulations.

I was probably one of those Year 10’s that gave you a hard time. Sorry.

Andrea Kypriotis: Well done Mr Larsen from the Cruickshank family.

Olga Norwood: Awesome achievement Peter!

Congratulations.

Mark Hore: Congrats Peter, nice to see you being recognised. I still remember our Film Studies class, my all-time favourite!

Amy Williams: This man introduced me to real music. Thank you.

Coola Nassiokas: Congratulations Peter.

Tamara Warden: Congratulations, Peter. What an amazing achievement.

Anita Hammer: Best teacher I had.

Susan Edwards: Well done Peter. A great achievement.

Debbie Sesa: Geez I feel old.

WEIMAR: NEXT FEW DAYS CRITICAL WHEN IT COMES TO LATROBE CITY’S COVID OUTBREAK Sarah Louise: So selfish, hope every one of them was fined. Took Latrobe’s freedom off them.

Adam Norton: So I as a construction worker cannot travel down to Melbourne to earn money but … this guy can travel to Gippsland just for a photo seems like unnecessary travel to me.

Silvana Summerfield: If everyone has a conscience and respected the heath authorities we wouldn’t be in this situation. About time the majority of population start to react. Had enough.

SEVEN-DAY LOCKDOWN FOR LATROBE CITY Steve Krupjak: End of the day the government is to blame for it all. Even though Melbourne is in lockdown, how many did I see going away for the long weekend and shops don’t ask for ID because they want the money because of these lockdowns.

David Bell: What about the families away for two weeks over the school holidays? I hope they all stay where they are and enjoy the holidays.

Rowen Earl: Lucky the grand final isn’t this weekend.

Amanda Pollutro: What’s the point of being fully vaccinated!! Ffs! Victor Tracey: The first month of a seven-day lockdown is always the hardest...

Renee Baxter: Thinking of everyone back home. Hopefully you can get back to normal soon... Talk about kicking you when you’re down.

You can’t get a break!! Stay safe!!

Discussion: Jeroen Weimar was in Traralgon on Wednesday after the lockdown of Latrobe City. photograph michelle slater Tracey Kneebone: Be careful everyone.

VALLEY HYDROGEN POWERING ONE SPEEDY COROLLA Erny Ernst: So they pump hundreds of tonnes of CO2 into the air in the production of this BROWN Hydrogen so they can play boy racer!! Remember our taxes have dropped over 1/2 a Billion dollars into this project - a project which will only be viable as long as Loy Yang remains - which is increasing unlikely. Return on investment, oh look no business case available classified as “commercial in confidence.

TWO FRESH COVID-19 CASES IN LATROBE CITY Deanna Paulet: 2 more, I’m OK with that. I imagine the bulk of the families involved have reported their close contacts who have all been tested days ago, with negative results. Could be so much worse. Dodging a bullet I reckon (or am I getting ahead of myself....)

Mark Booga Bateson: They keep saying these cases are linked to a party but can you please tell us how did it get into Latrobe Valley in the first place before it got spread around the party.

Christine Heily: Might help if people can actually get online and book in. Tried 12 times the other day and I gave up.

Jenny Harp: All these terrified people better stock up on groceries, what are you all going to do once things open up? Cases mean very little, there are going to be cases, it’s inevitable.

Neil Linda Perkins: Come on guys, get out and get tested.

Tom Hope: I hope the police fine these people for the illegal party.

FRESH COVID POSITIVE IN LATROBE CITY TODAY AS A RAFT OF NEW EXPOSURE SITES ANNOUNED Amber Roberts: Unfortunately going to happen in Latrobe Valley when stores in the Plaza who are checking ID are turning back people from Melbourne regularly - some up to five customers a day. A couple from Melbourne were asked for ID in Smiggle in front of me and politely asked to leave.

Lynne Mansfield: It’s getting too close.

FIX THIS NOW Nic Hodgskiss: Franklin Street is in desperate need of a school crossing! I have seen countless near misses on this side of the school.

Jan Knox: The whole parking and driving around Grey St at school times is atrocious, no wonder there are many near misses.

Shaun Azlin: Put the crossing on the other side of the school, issue fixed.

Karen Nilsson: Bypass Traralgon.

Bonnie Russell: It’s in desperate need of some upgrades around the surrounding streets.

Cameron Boucher: The amount of cars that don’t stop when they see kids approaching the crossing is staggering.

A WONDERFUL STORY Jennifer Canovan: What a hero Rick is.

Nikki Pearless: My bird is my therapy.

Margo-rob Danek: How beautiful.

DUE to the lockdown, our AGM as will now be held on the October 18.

If at this date we are still in lockdown, we will attempt to hold the AGM at the next available meeting.

As the hall is limited to 20 people, only the first 20 people to arrive will be able to attend the AGM and sausage sizzle.

For more information, contact Geoff Wales (president) on 0478 040 880.

Spring Art Show closed for duration of current lockdown

MOE Art Society’s Spring Art Show has been closed for the duration of the current lockdown, but will re-open as soon as restrictions allow.

The show can stay at its present venue until the end of November.

The Society was given a wonderful opportunity when the Mayor, Sharon Gibson, together with the Latrobe City Council and the Moe Library suggested we consider an Art Show in the Library’s East End and throughout the library.

The idea was to promote the library together with the Art Society endeavouring to make it a Community Event.

The Library Staff, led by Rebecca

Idyllic spot: This wonderful photo was taken during a previous Ben Cruachan Walking Club odyssey at Nyerimilang Park. photograph supplied Thomson, have intended to Showcase the Library an award-winning building which we, as a community, can be justifiably proud of.

The Exhibition has been for our members to present their art to the public, to make the public aware of local talent and despite COVID restrictions to bring the community through the library and to participate in the venture.

Local service groups and Scouting are running sausage sizzles each Saturday in the forecourt of the library.

We were to have schools through and other Art Groups for morning tea, but restrictions have made that difficult.

We are working towards a permanent venue for the Society and the Arts in general in the Moe/Newborough area.

We are working hard to achieve this for the Society, local artists, and the Community.

This venture has been a lot of hard work, but well worth it, we had 80 people through to view the exhibition in 2 ½ days.

We were very pleased and hope that when restrictions lift that the community will still be behind us and come to visit, have a natter with the artists on duty and view the exhibition.

Judging of the Entries has been finalised and we thank Lea Jones of Morwell Art and Framing and Andrew Corrigan of Frame by Frame in Moe for giving up their time. We are very grateful for their sponsor ship.

The winners were: John Reeve, Best in Show, Ling Wang, Second and Ken Downes took out the Third prize.

The awards were well deserved.

We look forward to re-opening as soon as the restrictions allow.

The Moe Art Society will be in the Library until the end of November.

Traralgon & District Historical Society

DUE to the current lockdown the Traralgon & District Historical Society Inc has made the decision to cancel the events scheduled for October, namely

the Members Night and The Shire display which was to be held in the rooms.

We hope that we will be able to hold our Annual Dinner which has now been rescheduled to Tuesday, November 9, 2021 (depending on COVID restrictions).

The 2022 calendar is now available from NewspowerGo, Seymour Street Traralgon for $10 each.

The calendar features “Local Remarkable Women”.

We hope you can support the Society by purchasing a calendar.

Moe Neighbourhood House events cancelled DUE to the local Latrobe City lockdown all programs and events at Moe Neighbourhood House are cancelled until notified by the state government.

We apologise for this inconvenience.

During this time the office will be closed! If you need to contact us you can do so by phone or email.

The office will reopen Wednesday, October 6, 2021 as long as lockdown is lifted.

For more, you can contact the Moe Neighbourhood House team via moemnh@bigpond.com, 5126 3123 or 0493 074 392.

Ben Cruachan Walking Club OUR walking club has a number of interesting walks planned for October.

Any walks will comply with the COVID requirements that apply at the time and are subject to cancellation at short notice as a result.

Club members will be able to enjoy walks in several locations across Victoria, from day walks to long, challenging pack walks.

Non-club members are invited to join us on a walk scheduled for Saturday, October 9.

MORWELL Historical Society open days are the first and third Wednesdays of the month (Feb-Nov) from 11-2pm.

Our general meetings are held on the third Wednesday of the month at 2.00pm, followed by our guest speaker at 3.00pm.

These days all depend on Covid restrictions at the time.

All members and the general public are encouraged to come and visit us, have a cuppa and a chat and view our collections.

After our general meeting on October 20 our guest speaker will be one of our own members, Peter Lendon.

Peter is a respected bookbinder with60 years of experience.

You may have come across Peter in his bookshop in Yarragon. Peter will talk to us about bookbinding and how it relates in the modern world.

This is a must for all book readers, those who may have books at home they are too scared to open in case they fall apart or those that like to see these specialist fields continue in the future.

OSMI Australia and Cubico Sustainable Investments are calling for applications for funding from the 2021 Delburn Wind Farm PreDevelopment Fund.

The focus for the allocation of the $20,000 fund has been discussed with the Community and Stakeholder Consultative Committee, which will support OSMI and Cubico in the evaluation process for grant applications.

Given the devastation caused in the region by the storms experienced in June 2021, it has been agreed that preference will be given to projects which support the repair of community infrastructure damaged by the storm or flooding or that improve community resilience in the event of natural disasters. OSMI and Cubico are open to projects that are co-funded.

In addition to the focus on storm recovery and improved community resilience, projects will be viewed favourably if they contribute to: • Building sustainable communities; • Enhancing community safety, health and wellbeing; • Supporting community education; and/or • Enhancing the natural environment.

This is the second round of community support funding from the Delburn Wind Farm, with more to follow during the construction and operations phases of the project.

Enquires about the fund can be directed to contactus@osmi.com.au, 1800 676 428 or in OSMI Australia’s Mirboo North office at 52 Ridgway (which will be open in line with COVID-19 restrictions).

The application form is available on the OSMI website at https://osmi.com.au/community/ communitybenefits-scheme/ Applications will close on Friday, November 26, 2021.

‘100 per cent Authentic Gippsland’ was an opportunity to showcase the diversity of the region.

“We are so lucky to live in this part of the world with the mountains, bush and ocean right at our doorstep,” Mr Chester said.

“Taking the photographs may be a little more difficult this year due to coronavirus restrictions, but I am confident the standard will be as high as it has been in the past.”

More than 20,000 free copies of the calendar will be available across Gippsland at the end of this year.

Photographers are also encouraged to upload their photos to social media using the hashtag #lovegippsland.

To enter the #lovegippsland calendar competition, photos must be a minimum size of 4MB to a maximum of 10MB. If photos are selected for inclusion in the calendar, they must be available in a resolution of greater than 4MB at 300dpi.

Latrobe Valley Chess

CLIFF Thornton advocated plans to reconvene when possible and follow all COVID restrictions.

New member Matteo Bonifaccio made full use of his chance for a game forcing the victory against Ian Hamilton.

Both Matt Bolding and Ian Hamilton have enjoyed wins and losses playing online chess, and agreed that this does not replace the over-the-board contest.

Peter Bakker and Bob Copper were almost ready but not available to join the latest contests.

Contact Cliff Thornton on 0413 330 458 or Ian Hamilton on 5134 1971 for more information.

Traralgon cricket aces in spotlight

CRICKET TDCA

THE cricket season traditionally starts on the first weekend of October in the TDCA and even though COVID restrictions have pushed the season back it turns out cricket wouldn’t have been played anyway due to the amount of rain Traralgon recorded over the weekend.

With the season so far away still and with the threat of COVID restrictions playing havoc with the 2021/2022 season, now is perhaps a good time to take a look at some of the players set to make their mark in the summer ahead.

There has been some seriously good players unfortunately leave the TDCA this season, with reigning LH Cox Player of the Year Jordan Gilmore set to make his mark in Victorian Premier Cricket, as well as Mitch Floyd who is returning to the Sale-Maffra Cricket Association.

Brett Chapman is also potentially moving out of the region for work.

This means there is now a great opportunity for young and exciting players to take charge and stamp themselves on the competition.

This week, instead of being able to run through the results of what would have been a great Round 1 for the TDCA, here is a selection of players that are tipped to be the standouts for this coming season.

Lee Stockdale (Ex Students)

THE Ex Students captain is not only regarded as the best player in the TDCA but also the best in the region.

Stockdale made 357 runs last season and also claimed 30 wickets to win the league bowling aggregate in an outstanding regular season.

Add to that his 137 runs and five wickets at Gippsland Cricket League level and there’s no reason to see him slowing down any time soon.

Stockdale commands respect as the TDCA’s representative skipper and his aura on the field and take-no-prisoners attitude is second to none which is why he is the most highly-rated player in the TDCA.

Nathan Freitag (Glengarry)

RETURNED to the TDCA last season for the first time in a long time and had an instant impact.

Most would have predicted a bigger return from the superstar left hander after coming back from Victorian Premier Cricket but he still made just over 300 runs and claimed 10 wickets during the regular season.

Freitag paced himself brilliantly throughout the season and peaked at exactly the right moment where he picked up his team and carried them into a magnificent finals campaign making 80 runs and claiming eight wickets, leading the Magpies to a premiership in the process.

Freitag is as calm a character as you would meet in cricketing circles and his finals series reminded everyone just how bright of a shining star he is.

Keenan Hughes (Toongabbie)

THE big athletic left-arm quick returns to Toongabbie after a season in Kalgoorlie where he was able to add another premiership medal to his growing trophy cabinet.

Hughes will always be remembered in the TDCA for his blistering spell against Ex Students in the 2018/19 grand final and rightfully so as the big

Backing up: Reigning TDCA premier Glengarry will be fighting hard to defend its crown. quick will easily be regarded as the fastest bowler in the league once more.

It looks as if his batting has improved out of sight as well making over 400 runs last year in Western Australia which included a Country Week campaign where he smashed 91 from 78 balls in the CW semi-final and then 88 from 57 balls in the final.

Coming off that sort of form will be huge for the Rams finals chances as Hughes will stamp his authority on the TDCA this season.

James Pryde (Ex Students) HAS a huge reputation as a big-game player and rightfully so as Pryde has been outstanding for not just Ex Students since getting the opportunity to bowl more, but for the TDCA representative team as well.

The aggressive spinner showed his class last season in the GCL grand final where he earned Man Of The Match honours for his mesmerising six wicket haul and after knocking on the door every year of the TDCA Team of the Year since his first selection in 2018/19, this season is shaping up to be a big one where he’ll be in the mix for the bowling aggregate trophy come presentation night.

Anthony Scott (Yarram & District) HIGHLY regarded in cricketing circles all across the Gippsland region, the Pelicans skipper will be chomping at the bit at just the thought of playing all one-day fixtures this season due to COVID restrictions.

Scott hits a huge ball and will be perfectly suited to play the shorter format each week this season.

It doesn’t stop there for Scott though as his bowling should not be underestimated due to having the ability to prize a wicket when things aren’t going his teams way while also having the ability to bowl very economically and throw in a few tricks as well.

He was the inaugural captain of the Pelicans and

now that they have a strong foothold in the TDCA expect his 254 runs from last season to be nearly doubled as he smashes his way through 2021/22.

Adam Brady (Gormandale)

LIKE a fine wine Brady continues to get better with age.

The new Gormandale captain is coming off another superb season where he finished second in the bowling aggregate for the league, earnt himself a black cap at GCL level and for the 10th time in his career was named in the TDCA Team of the Year.

Brady shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon and considering he’s only one Team of the Year selection away from equalling the record of 11 held by Kent Hammond there is no doubt the star quick will be primed for another big season.

Matthew Hibbs (Gormandale)

THERE was never any doubt that Matthew Hibbs is a talented cricketer and after his best season in the TDCA in 2020/21 where he amassed 483 runs at an average of 48.30 he’s put himself on the list as one of the best cricketers in the competition.

The challenge now is for Hibbs to go to the next level and start to be thought of as one of the best two or three batsmen in the league by getting some hundreds under his belt. If his form continues on from last season that will certainly be on the cards.

Although he doesn’t bowl much anymore he still provides plenty for the Tigers in the field, having made the point position his own in recent years where he hunts the ball beautifully and is as clean as any other fielder in the TDCA.

Jackson McMahon (Ex Students)

ANOTHER batsman who will thrive in an all one-day season, McMahon is Ex Students’ regular opening batsman in the shorter format and will be one to watch this season.

file photograph

Coming off a regular season of just over 300 runs, McMahon is more than capable of big scores and accumulating runs in a short amount of time.

Without Jordan Gilmore potentially in the Ex Students line-up this season McMahon is just the person to take the mantle and establish himself as the main man at Shark Park.

Alistair Jenkin (Glengarry)

WON the LH Cox Player of the Year only two seasons ago and has built a huge reputation as a classy opening batsman.

Jenkin didn’t have the biggest season in the most recent campaign, making only 200 runs during the regular season, but he made 59 runs in the finals series while also showing his class with the ball in the grand final taking 2/17 from 14.2 overs.

Jenkin is a genuine all-round threat and considering he is now Glengarry’s number one spinner he will be crucial for his club this season and be required to bowl plenty of overs while also getting lots of opportunity with the stick. Watch this space because Jenkin has got a big season brewing.

Ewan Williams (Rovers) IT is now time for Williams to go from child prodigy to established superstar and there will be no better time than this season.

From a TDCA point of view Williams didn’t have the biggest season in 2020/21, making 242 runs at 16.13 while claiming 15 wickets at 17.93, but it was what he did and got to experience outside the TDCA which will hold him in good stead for the coming year.

Williams earned a Black Cap playing representative cricket on his way to a GCL premiership while also being a part of the Gippsland Under-21 premiership team as well.

With these experiences under his belt the allrounder should have picked up plenty of great cricketing knowledge during the past season.

Rawson lays new wicket ahead of possible return CRICKET LVDCL

By LIAM DURKIN

Helping hand: Locals recently laid a new wicket at Rawson Cricket Club.

photographs rawson cricket club facebook

Welcome inclusion: The new wicket replaced the old one that had been down for over 30 years.

THOSE playing cricket in Rawson this season will be welcomed with a brand new wicket.

The picturesque oval recently had a new synthetic strip laid, replacing the old pitch that had been in place since the early 1980s.

A band of locals helped complete the project, adding to the country warmth that has made Rawson one of the marquee grounds in the Latrobe Valley and District Cricket League.

Spectators at Rawson are treated to a view from atop a hill that overlooks the oval on the northern boundary edge, while a lightning fast outfield makes it an attractive proposition to any batsman in their quest to go big.

It is also a great journey back from Rawson for visiting teams - just so long as you aren’t the one driving.

Although the Rawson Cricket Club itself hasn’t played for a few years, those reading between the lines may see that a new pitch will mean Rawson might be fielding a team in 2021-22.

Kookaburras stalwart Rod Fleming confirmed the club was aiming to get on the park when asked

by The Express.

“Absolutely, that’s what we’re trying and do, we

hope to get a side up. I can’t 100 per cent say we’ll have a side but we hope to,” he said.

“We just think it would be good to have a team in the town.”

Rawson last fielded a team in October 2018, but was forced to pull out of the LVDCL second grade competition after just four games.

Since then, the Kookaburras have been forgotten about to some extent, but have maintained their affiliation with the LVDCL while in recess.

The formation of Rawson Cricket Club coincided with the establishment of the town to house workers constructing the Thomson Dam. The now extinct Erica Cricket Club played at Rawson before virtually morphing into Rawson Cricket Club in 1984.

While the Kookaburras have been in-and-out of recess during its history, they do have some silverware to show for it.

Their most recent flag came in 2011-12 when the seconds won the Central Gippsland Cricket Association title.

For a town of less than 300 people, Rawson has also produced some more than handy cricketers including Wayne Fleming, Alex Sword and Nathan Lee. Those that might be interested in playing cricket at Rawson this season are encouraged to phone Rod Fleming on 0459 224 553.

Opals secure bronze at Asia Cup

BASKETBALL

By LIAM DURKIN

LOCAL basketball products Jaz Shelley and Jade Melbourne finished their Asia Cup tournament last night.

The pair walked away from the event in Jordan with a bronze medal after the Opals defeated Korea Republic 88-58.

Melbourne ended up with six points courtesy of a pair of three pointers, while Shelley provided an assist during her four and a half minutes on the court.

It was the culmination of an impressive campaign for Australia, who opened the tournament with a 76-65 defeat of Chinese Taipei, before thrashing the Philippines the following night.

In the match against the Philippines, Australia more than doubled their opponents score, winning 120-56.

Shelley and Melbourne got on the court in both games and netted baskets throughout.

Newborough’s Shelley ended with six points in the first match, while Traralgon’s Melbourne got on the board with a free-throw after getting her opportunity.

Due to the one side nature of the match against the Philippines, Australian players had their court time managed and were heavily rotated.

Shelley scored 10 points in this game, with two lay-ups and two three-point jump shots.

Melbourne scored seven, including a 100 per cent free-throw percentage.

Australia lost its next match to China, going down 82-64.

Shelley was unable to have much impact, with two rebounds and one assist, although she only play just over 10 minutes.

Melbourne got on for less than three minutes and shot three points during that time.

After finishing Group B in second position, the Australian team faced New Zealand in the qualifying round for a place in the semi-final.

The Trans-Tasman rivals played a hard-fought game, and it was the Australians who came out on top, winning 72-61.

Scores were tied at 20-all at quarter time before Australia took control.

A 20-14 point second term gave the team enough breathing space, which it was able to maintain throughout the rest of the contest.

Moe track stands up to test on wild weather day

HORSE RACING

HEAVY rain did not deter proceedings at Moe Racing Club on Thursday.

While the region was lashed with wild weather and flooding, Moe completed a nine-race program.

Although rain fell continuously throughout the meeting, industry representatives, jockeys, trainers, and course commentators were full of praise as to how well the StrathAyr sand-based track performed, which allowed the entire program to be completed in severely inclement conditions.

The club recorded a total of 15 millimetres fall prior to the meeting and 36ml throughout.

Moe was plagued with cancelled meetings after heavy rain in the years leading up to 2014.

The committee at that stage took the attitude that ‘enough was enough’ and made the ambitious decision to spend $5 million on an all-weather sand based StrathAyr surface.

Racing Minister for Victoria Martin Pakula, Racing Victoria and Country Racing Victoria supported Moe Racing Club’s decision and assisted with funding.

Moe Racing Club borrowed $3.5 million to allow the project to be completed and racing on the new track commenced in 2016.

The debt has since been repaid in full and after getting through last Thursdays meeting unscathed, it is clear the investment was money well spent.

It took 12 months for the new track to consolidate but since that time Moe has not lost a meeting due to inclement weather.

The sand-based track is designed to allow continuous drainage to occur and prevent surface water laying on the track.

Gippsland FC seeking new players for 2022

SOCCER

Don’t mess with girls from the Valley: Shelley and Melbourne swarm on an opponent from the Philippines at the Asia Cup. photograph fiba women’s asia cup Unfortunately for the locals they virtually had to watch from the sidelines in this match. Melbourne only played just over a minute-and-a-half, while Shelley did not play at all.

After securing the win over the Kiwis, a date with destiny awaited against Asia Cup powerhouse Japan.

Australia needed to win this match to progress to the final, and in a pulsating match, was denied by just two points in a 67-65 scoreline.

The Opals came so close to defeating a team that has won the previous four women’s basketball Asia Cups, and looked to have the game in their grasp as they led by six points with four minutes to go.

However, Japan stepped up their defensive play and powered to a nine-nil run that ultimately saw them over the line.

There was plenty of drama right at the death when a block on Australia’s Sami Whitcomb denied her a last-gasp three-point effort.

In the aftermath, it was a heroic effort from Australia, who played their hearts out against much more seasoned opponents, while for Japan, they well and truly used the get-out-of-jail card.

Despite the result, Australia coach Paul Gorris was full of praise for his team.

“The scoreline reflected the tightness of the game,” he said.

“It was two great teams battling it out. It hurts to lose and we don’t want to lose, but being able to get here and do what we did today is a reflection of how far this group has come. It also reflected the toughness of how we play. We held them to their lowest score of the tournament, but we gave up too many turnovers and that hurt us.”

Melbourne saw 13 minutes in the semi-final, scored two points and had one rebound and one assist. Shelley did not play.

As one of the top four teams Australia qualified for the 2022 World Cup, to be held in Sydney.

GIPPSLAND Football Club is seeking expressions of interest from dedicated players to trial for its National Premier League squads for 2022 to be held in coming weeks.

Those interested in being part of a football program that focuses on individual player development and want to continue their football journey by playing at the highest level in the state against some of the biggest clubs in the country such as A-League teams Melbourne Victory and Melbourne City are encouraged to put their name forward.

Trials will be held for: Under 13 (preNational Premier League for players born in 2009 and 2010), Under 14 (born 2008), Under 15 (born 2007), Under 16 (born 2006) and Under 18 (born 2004 and 2005).

Interested players must register for the trials via the Gippsland Football Club Facebook page or via the clubs website at www.gippslandfc.com.

All registered players will receive an email with trial dates and times once announced.

The club is in the process or recruiting coaches for its girls development programs next season.

Expressions of Interest will be advertised for these programs in early 2022.

Stackhouse treble highlights meeting HORSE RACING

By GREGOR MACTAGGART

JOCKEY Daniel Stackhouse dominated a wet and soggy meeting at Moe on Thursday with a winning treble.

Stackhouse, one of the state’s most underrated hoops, proved the punters pal as he dominated the quaddie legs.

All three of his winners started favourite or equal favourite.

O’Mahlo ($5.00) kick-started proceedings for Stackhouse with a tough effort in the S&S Equipment Hire Benchmark 58 Handicap (2088m).

The five-year-old revelled in the heavy conditions to defeat Stradari by 1 ½ lengths, much to the delight of trainer Tim Hughes.

“He really enjoys Moe this little horse, he’s won two in a row here now,” Hughes said.

Some of the talk post-race centred on a possible Moe Cup start, although Hughes tempered expectations, saying “his rating still has a bit of work to do.”

Stackhouse was a little more bullish, saying a heavy track come Cup Day would suit the son of O’Lonhro.

“He’s racing in consistent form and handles Moe, so you may as well have a throw at the stumps,” he said.

“He’s going super this horse, he really liked the conditions, we travelled well and had a nice run in transit.

“The run came at the top of the straight for us and he was able to get through (the heavy).”

Real Thinker ($3.30fav) was the middle pin of the treble, staving off the in-form Toorak Playboy in the Moe Optical Benchmark 64 Handicap (1628m).

The result was a role reversal of when the pair of gallopers met on September 13, bringing a smile to the face of trainer Eric Musgrove.

“This horse is ultra consistent,” Stackhouse said post-race.

Put the name La Caresse into your blackbook after the promising four-year-old gelding took his career record to two wins from as many starts.

La Caresse ($2.60eqfav) powered away to a big lead midway down the home straight, but tired late and in the end only held off a fast-finishing Night Hussler by a lip.

“He’s got a lot of upside,” Stackhouse said.

Expect the form from the Moe winners to hold up well, not just on the country circuit, but at metropolitan level in the coming weeks and months.

Turf wars: Capella sets up its run on the outside to win the Race 4 Tycass Pty Ltd Maiden Plate.

photographs liam durkin

Wet and wild: The field heads for home in the Race 1 Ladbroke It! 3YO Maiden Plate at Moe on Thursday. Leading the race was Baekdu, which came second in the finish.

There are bigger assignments ahead for Capella, a Japanese-bred mare from the Danny O’Brien camp who won her first race at start eight in the Tycass Pty Ltd Maiden (1628m).

The mare had put the writing on the wall with solid efforts at Echuca and Sale, her first two runs after arriving Down Under.

Jockey Ben Allen enjoyed an armchair ride on Capella ($4.00), who bolted in by a soft six and a half length margin.

Despite starting 50-1, Ninyo produced one of the best performances of the day to run down odds-on pop Baekdu in the Ladbroke It Maiden (1017m).

The filly, ridden by Lewis German, sprouted wings down the outside of the track to make it a debut to remember.

Enver Jusufovic’s good record at Moe continued when Pinstriped ($2.70fav) made light work of the CME Installations Maiden Plate (1117m).

But the Cranbourne trainer had to play second fiddle in the very next race with his charge Major Impact defeated by Stern Impulse (Shane Nichols/ Zac Spain) in the Colli’s Hair Design Maiden Plate (1117m).

Hometown trainer Christine Sexton’s perseverance paid off when Ima Dozer ($4.40fav) scored a drought-breaking success in the Ladbrokes Maiden Plate (2088m).

“He’s been screaming out for this distance, I’d been too frightened to step him up (in trip), but I thought today’s the day I had to do it,” Sexton said post-race.

“He’s come along really well this preparation.”

The win was certainly well-deserved considering Ima Dozer had finished second in four of his previous five starts.

Miss Sarasota ($9.50) rounded out the day’s racing with a narrow victory in the Ladbrokes Moe Cup October 15 Benchmark 58 Handicap (1117m).

In her first start for new trainer John McArdle, the four-year-old daughter of Pierro withstood a late charge from No Shame to register her second win at start five.

New T20 league

CRICKET

By JOSH FARRELL

Big hitting: Morwell Cricket Club is set to play in the Kookaburra T20 Smash competition.

file photograph

GIPPSLAND will be home to a new Twenty20 cricket competition in 2021, with the exciting Kookaburra T20 Smash bringing eight teams from different leagues together to battle it out.

Gippsland cricket fans will no longer have to travel to Melbourne to watch exciting T20 cricket and will even have the opportunity watch it from the comfort of their own homes.

Gippsland T20 Smash is set to bring clubs together from the Traralgon District Cricket Association, the Latrobe Valley and District Cricket League, the Sale-Maffra Cricket Association and the Leongatha District Cricket Association.

Local clubs Ex Students, Toongabbie, Yarram and District and Morwell have been invited to play in the competition, along with Stratford, Maffra

and Collegians (SMCA) and Leongatha Imperials.

While only a select number of clubs will be able to play in the competition, the goal is to create the best spectacle possible with clubs having the option to bring marquee players on board.

All clubs will have the opportunity to bring in six marquee players from their competition to an 18 man roster and can use up to four of them in a game.

The competition has come about thanks to a small sub-committee who has worked hard to start up the region’s first T20 competition.

Ex Students cricketer Lee Stockdale formed part of the sub-committee, and said it was an exciting prospect to see what the competition could do for cricket in the region.

“We are trying to make the product really good … there will be a lot of Friday night games, there will possibly be some double-header games played on a Sunday as well,” he said.

At this stage the teams have been announced with no fixture yet, although Stockdale is hopeful they will be able to get a large amount of games together.

“It’s obviously a challenge with weather and COVID and we have a bit still to iron out with the fixture, but we hope we can get a lot of cricket in,” he said.

Kookaburra has come on as a major sponsor and encouraged the use of the pink balls to ensure the best viewing experience for fans.

All matches will be live streamed through a designated Facebook page to ensure maximum engagement. Automotive company MG has also come on as a sponsor for the tournament, with the winning team taking away a new car.

Stockdale hopes the competition can grow in the coming years to include teams from Bairnsdale and Warragul, but said it was important to make sure the first edition gets off the ground strongly.

Valley’s Aussie paralympic star glad to be home

SWIMMING

By LIAM DURKIN

TRARALGON swimmer Emily Beecroft returned home recently from the Paralympics.

The 21-year old lived the dream in Tokyo, securing a silver and bronze medal.

Swimming as part of the Australian 4x100m freestyle relay team, Beecroft helped her country to a silver medal and the first of her career.

She followed up with a bronze in the 4x100m medley relay.

Taking the all-important third leg for both relays, Beecroft said she was proud to have contributed to her country’s medal tally.

“Seeing the Olympians perform really well while we were over in our staging camp definitely got us really hyped up to perform, it was amazing just to see everyone’s hard work pay off,” she said.

“Australia has a really big emphasis on our relays so we knew it was going to be really important.

“The para relays work a bit differently to the able-bodied in terms of the points. I was really excited to swim the third leg, I was just going to focus on my own race plan and I was really happy with both my swims.”

The silver medal came about in dramatic circumstances. The Australian team was promoted to second after the first finishing USA was disqualified for leaving the blocks too early on changeover, as well as Great Britain.

There was some nervous moments as the Americans protested the result, which delayed the medal ceremony to the next day, but it came to no avail and an Australian silver medal was inscribed.

“It was very unexpected, just a crazy few minutes as soon as we got out,” Beecroft said of the postscript to the race.

“It was a really good race, pretty close, and I saw there was two disqualifications … a pretty unforgettable experience for my first relay.”

The bronze medal race also carried a sidestory, as Beecroft played a part in cementing Australia’s most successful Paralympian in Ellie Cole, who claimed her 17th Paralympic medal - taking her past the mark set by Priya Cooper.

In a nice touch, as was customary at the games due to COVID restrictions, the athletes presented each other with their medals at the ceremony.

Beecroft pointed to these moments as the highlight.

“Standing alongside those girls in my relay was definitely an unforgettable experience,” she said.

The medals themselves are quite heavy and are emblazoned with the name of the event on the side.

Along with the medal wins, Beecroft said other highlights included rooming with fellow Traralgon swimmer Ruby Storm, and seeing the Paralympics receive a similar amount of media as their Olympic counterparts.

“It was amazing to see the amount of coverage we had,” she said.

“I know the athletes got a lot of letters and social media support from a lot of people around Australia … it’s amazing to see how far we’ve come just from the Rio Paralympics (in 2016).”

Unlike her previous Paralympics, Beecroft was unable to do any y sightseeing g g in Tokyo y or mingle with players from other countries, but said d competing under the COVID D cloud did have at least one positivee effect.

“The T Tokyo stadium would have beeen amazing if it was filled, b but I’m a very nervous swimm mer and I think the fact there w wasn’t a huge crowd worked d in my favour, I could just foccus on my relay,” she said.

“Para alympics Australia worked d really hard just to make sure we were safe.”

Follow wing the games, Beecroft had twoo weeks in hotel quaran ntine, giving h her a chancce to reflect on the culmina ation

of hard work in the last five years that ultimately led to her achieving two Paralympic medals.

The training load was quite intense, with Beecroft taking to the pool and gym 13 times a week, all the while studying on the side.

There will be no letting up however, as the youngster has her eyes set on her next challenge challenge. again, hopefully “2022 will be a busy year a I’ll make the Commonweealth Games team hampionship team as well as the world ch and then look forwarrd to Paris (2024 Paralympics),” she said. back home in For now, she is b Traralgon and wiill be training psland Regional at the new Gipp Aquatic Centree once restrictions allow. ky to have the “I’m very luck Traralgon.
