AUSTRALIA DAY ACROSS THE REGION INSIDE TODAY

Double act Twins Jack and Leo Bawden started at Moe’s South Street Primary School on Monday. They were among thousands of fresh-faced youngsters across the Valley to begin their school journeys. FULL STORY - PAGE 12

GAME FACE ON MUCH like the Canned Heat song, it appears the Commonwealth Games might be going up the country.

With Victoria emerging as the front runner in a seemingly one-horse race to be Australia’s bid for the 2026 Commonwealth Games, there is a groundswell of support for regional areas to be included in the games’ official programming.

Latrobe City has been slated as one municipality of potential, along with other major regional Victorian centres

such as Shepparton, Bendigo, Ballarat and Warrnambool.

Latrobe City has no shortage of highquality sporting infrastructure, with facilities like the Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports Stadium and Gippsland Regional Aquatic Centre both of professional standard.

As far as Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan is concerned, the region is ready to host Commonwealth Games events if called upon.

“If there is a chance for us to host significant scale sporting events here in Latrobe we would be very

open to it,” Cr O’Callaghan told The Express.

“These opportunities don’t come along very often. International level sport in Latrobe is something we know the community would absolutely love and we now have the capacity with the facilities that we’ve got.

“Whether it is the pools at GRAC, whether it is the international-standard stadiums that we now have in place particularly with the Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports Stadium in Traralgon, we’ve had some fantastic basketball games there so far and we have some

netball heading our way, but there is any number of sports that could utilise that facility and certainly the full size FIFA pitch at Latrobe City Sport and Entertainment Stadium would allow us that opportunity as well.

“Also just our gyms for any of their strength and conditioning training, and wouldn’t it be fantastic to see all the bikes up at Haunted Hills Mountain Bike Park if there is an opportunity to host people up there too?

More than a Games hope Continued from page 1

Fresh: Three highway patrol vehicles in the Latrobe Police Service Area have been fitted with new technology.

“I think we would be in a very good position to be able to host and I have absolutely no doubt that the community would not only welcome it, but fundamentally embrace all of the opportunity it would create for us.”

While there are still a number of pins to fall, Cr O’Callaghan said Latrobe City Council would keep doing its preparedness in creating a pathway for being able to participate in the Games.

Member for Morwell Russell Northe said the region had already proven it was capable of hosting Commonwealth Games events.

“Back in 2006 when the Commonwealth Games were held in Victoria, Traralgon Basketball Stadium hosted some games and they were an incredible success,” he said.

“The Commonwealth Games has a variety of sports that could be held in our region, everything from archery to bowls to basketball.

“Archery is maybe a sport that flies under the radar but we have Twin City Archers in Morwell which has hosted state, national and international events over time, there is no reason with the right investment that we could have archery events at the Commonwealth Games as one example.”

Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester also threw his support behind the proposal, but with a few conditions.

“I would only support Melbourne hosting the Commonwealth Games if the state and federal governments agreed that at least 30 per cent of the events, training, and benefits from the Games would flow to regional areas like Gippsland,” he said.

“The Commonwealth Games showcase some of the world’s best athletes and the opportunity to host it regionally would provide benefits for many years to come.”

A 13-person taskforce, which includes former Australian Opals captain Lauren Jackson and Hawthorn footballer Nick Holland, has been established under the banner of ‘Greater Victoria Commonwealth Games Bid’.

Vehicle theft after home invasion

Arrests made after allegedly stolen car hits police vehicles TWO Morwell locals have been arrested after allegedly stealing a car and hitting a number of police vehicles while attempting to evade arrest.

Police first spotted the red Toyota Camry sedan on Old Melbourne Road in Maryvale.

The car evaded police during the initial sighting, before allegedly hitting a number of police vehicles.

However police finally intercepted the car near Cross’s Road in Traralgon on Monday, January 17.

A male attempted to flee the scene on foot and was arrested nearby.

Police Beat with Alyssa Fritzlaff

The 35-year-old man was charged with theft of a motor vehicle, dangerous driving while pursued by police, assault of police and police ramming charges.

He was remanded in custody, and is due to appear at Latrobe Valley Magistrates Court on May 6, 2022.

The second person, a 32-year-old female was charged with theft of a motor vehicle and is due to appear at Latrobe Valley Magistrates Court on June 22, 2022.

This incident follows the alleged theft of a car from an address on Princes Drive Morwell between 8pm and 11.59pm on the night of Thursday, January 13, 2022.

The car, and other personal belongings were stolen from the address.

The owner, an elderly woman, was home at the time of the incident and did not witness the theft and there was no sign of forced entry.

Latrobe Police receive new technology THREE highway patrol vehicles in the Latrobe Police Service Area have been fitted with new technology.

(ANPR) technology has been fitted to allow police to detect drivers who are suspended, disqualified and unlicensed. It will also identify stolen vehicles and fraudulent number plates.

Sergeant Andrew Milbourne, of Divisional Road Policing said the ANPR technology will be a useful tool for Latrobe police.

“These vehicles will be a valuable tool for police in detecting suspended, disqualified or unlicensed drivers and removing them from our roads. Police will use these vehicles as part of Operation Amity, with patrols to focus on high-risk areas across Latrobe,” he said.

“The ANPR technology can also detect unregistered and stolen vehicles as well as fraudulent number plates, making it harder for offenders to avoid police detection.”

ANPR has been fitted to more than 200 Victoria Police highway patrol vehicles across the state.

The aim of the new technology is to improve road safety across the state. In about 10 per cent of fatal collisions in 2021, unauthorised driving was determined to have a factor.

A total of 19 people have already died on Victoria’s road in 2022. This is more than three times the figure recorded this time last year.

“Automatic number plate recognition technology gives us another set of eyes on the roads to stop these drivers in their tracks,” Assistant Commissioner of Road Policing Glenn Weir said.

“We will use the more than 200 highway patrol vehicles fitted with this technology at every opportunity.”

Wombat leads the festivities at Trafalgar on Australia Day

By LIAM DURKIN

Australia Day celebrations were TARAFALGAR held in the town’s public hall. congregation of around 50 people came to join in festivities, presented by the Trafalgar Community Development Association.

Well known Trafalgar resident and TCDA acting president David ‘Wombat’ Lyons led the ceremony, which heard an address from fellow Trafalgar resident and Baw Baw Shire councillor Darren Wallace.

Showing that even councillors can be informal, Mr Wallace did away with the suit and tie for Australia Day, appropriately donning shorts and a pair of thongs.

The guest speaker at Trafalgar this year was John Freyne - president of the committee of management behind local newspaper Traf News.

Freyne spoke about the role Traf News played within the community, and its importance in being something that connects people of all generations.

Traf News is a monthly publication put together by a band of dedicated volunteers, and is delivered to nearly 20 per cent of Baw Baw Shire residents branching from Trafalgar, Willow Grove, Thorpdale and Yarragon.

With community newspapers facing continued pressure to stay afloat during the pandemic, the fact Traf News has maintained its presence in town could serve as a beacon of hope for other small players in the print game.

The ceremony was highlighted by Marianne

Proud: Trafalgar Citizen of the Year Marianne Tyler with son Jarrod.

Tyler winning the annual Trafalgar Citizen of the Year award.

Ms Tyler has been a member of the Trafalgar Lions Club for 18 years, and also volunteers her time with the local op-shop and Trafalgar Cemetery Trust. As if that wasn’t enough, she has also provided cooking classes for boys at Trafalgar High School, and helped out with fundraising for the Youth Resource Centre and Trafalgar Boxing Gym.

On accepting the honour, it was clear Ms Tyler very much lived by the ‘do it because you can, not because you have to’ mantra.

“I love volunteering, I love Lions and I absolutely adore working in the op-shop, we have so much fun, every Thursday morning I can’t wait to get there,” she said.

“I think I like having fun and I like talking to people. We meet heaps of wonderful people and do good things for the community.”

Ms Tyler encouraged others to get involved with their community as much as they could.

“While you are still able to do things, why stop? You feel younger when you get out doing things, it gives you a purpose if you go and do something,” she said.

Those in attendance concluded the ceremony with a two-verse rendition of Advance Australia Fair, before the Trafalgar Lions Club treated all to the staple Aussie breakfast of bacon and eggs.

Dedication to Walhalla results in OAM honour

OAM: Beverly Holmes, pictured in front of the decorated rotunda at the Two Queens Diamond Jubilee.

Ms Holmes was commended for her service to the community of Walhalla.

As part of her extensive involvement in the Walhalla Heritage and Development League since 1968, she has played a key role in organising fundraisers, including the Two Queens Jubilee in 2012.

She is an Honorary Life Member of 30 years, former secretary, and museum curator.

The humble woman said she accepted the award on behalf of the Walhalla Heritage and Development League.

Ms Holmes expressed that she feels the League as a whole deserve recognition for their contributions to the township of Walhalla over the years.

She said there are many other people involved who have worked for Walhalla for a very long period of time and the League’s work as a collective “has resulted in the beautiful town we see today”.

“The League began in 1945 and has been responsible for restoring the band rotunda the Fire Station, the historic Corner Stores housing the Walhalla Museum and other infrastructure around the town,” Ms Holmes said.

“Without this early work there would be no original buildings left today.”

Ms Holmes’ volunteer work at the Old Walhalla Post Office, and membership at the Walhalla Cricket Club was also noted.

A CROWD of about 150 people turned out on a picture perfect morning for Churchill’s Australia Day celebrations.

The festivities at the Churchill Community Hub featured music, youngsters sporting flags and the barbecue doing a roaring trade as a raft of community members earned recognition.

Margaret McQuillan was a popular recipient as Churchill’s Citizen of the Year award.

Ms McQuillan, who moved to Churchill in 1975, has held and continues to hold a number of voluntary roles, including with the St Vincent de Paul Society, Lumen Christi Catholic Church, the Churchill Fire Recovery Committee and Churchill Cricket Club.

She has also assisted many international students at Federation University with finding accommodation and employment, helping transition into life in Gippsland.

“My family told me there was going to be a surprise today and I thought I might be getting a puppy, but this is better than a puppy,” Ms McQuillan said.

“All the kids kept it a secret, I had no idea …

I’m humbled to accept this award.”

Ms McQuillan’s family was on hand in large numbers at the ceremony.

“My daughter Paula (Biram) is down from North Queensland, my brothers have also come down from Melbourne, it is a special day,” she said.

“Thank you to the Churchill Lions Club and the work they do in our community.”

The festivities also saw a number of junior awards presented to Chase Hickman, Hayden Dent, Eddie Fairbrother, Paul Bonicci, Mia Fede and sisters Leandra and Jenna McLauchlan.

Chase was nominated by Hazelwood North Primary School, where he raised more than $1200 by taking part in the Jump Rope For Heart program.

Kurnai College junior campus student Hayden will study Year 11 in 2022 and has a keen interest in science, art and animal welfare.

Hosts: This is the first year Old Gippstown hosted Australia Day.

Renowned local artist named Moe’s Citizen of the Year

By ALYSSA FRITZLAFF

OE’S Old Gippstown hosted this year’s M Australia Day celebration.

Locals flooded through the gates to take part in the sausage sizzle and enjoy the festivities. Some dressed up in Australian themed costumes, while others donned their favourite pair of shorts and thongs.

Music was supplied by the 350s Blues Band, who volunteered their time to entertain guests, playing Australian themed songs all morning.

Moe Lions Club president Ken Bechaz took to the stage to present the 2022 Moe Citizen of the Year award.

The winner was local artist Steve Bechaz.

Steve is a well-known member of the community, recognised for his many murals scattered throughout Moe and the Latrobe Valley.

Last year he organised the Show me some Art Festival in Moe, bringing regional, metropolitan and international artists to the town.

Through the event he raised $6000 for mental health organisations Beyond Blue and Lifeline Gippsland.

Notably, Steve also works with young people in the community to help them develop their artistic abilities and express themselves through their work.

Steve was commended by the Lions Club president for his work in the community during the award presentation.

“Steve is not afraid to put in his own time and effort,” he said.

Citizen of the Year: Steven Bechaz (middle), with Lions Club President Ken Bechaz and 2019 Citizen of the Year Rosanna Colli.

Woof: Minnie the dog was all dressed up.

Popular: Locals lined up for sausages.

“He is dedicated to getting young people to recognise their abilities.”

Steve said it was an honour to be awarded Citizen of the Year.

“I grew up in Moe, I want to put Moe on the map with some amazing art,” he said.

“I want to promote Moe and the amazing town that it is.

“I’d like to thank my family. Especially sister Allison, who has really been a driving force in my work. Also, my dad, although he’s passed away, he really supported me.

“Thank you to the local community. They really got behind the festival last year, which was great.”

The festival is set to return to Moe in April 2022.

Old Gippstown manager Tina Fort said she was delighted by the number of people who showed up on the day.

“I think it’s fantastic ... it’s nice to see the community come together,” she said.

She thanked the many local organisations and businesses who helped make the big day happen, including Moe Lions Club, Banjo’s Traralgon, Gippsland Wholesale Meats,

Brentcorp Traralgon, Latrobe City Council, Gippstown Cafe, the Gippsland Vintage Car Club and all their volunteers and staff.

Family: Declan, Annette and Matilda Dougan.

Community champions

By GREGOR MACTAGGART

YINNAR’S Australia Day festivities attracted a crowd of about 100 people to Centenary Park.

The highlight of the morning was the presentation of the Citizen of the Year and Young Citizen of the Year awards.

The 2022 Yinnar and District Community Association Citizen of the Year was Nicole Allen.

Ms Allen, who lives at Yinnar South, was one of the founders of the Gippsland Sculpture Exhibition.

The exhibition, which runs every two years, has grown into one of Yinnar’s most iconic events.

It attracts some of the country’s most recognised interior and exterior sculptors, who work with a host of mediums, transforming steel, stone, wood, ceramic and bronze into one-of-a-kind masterpieces.

“I was very surprised,” Ms Allen said after receiving the award.

Ms Allen, originally from the Mornington Peninsula, moved to the region in 2012.

“When we came back from Vietnam I was looking for somewhere a bit more quiet and the Yinnar district has become our home,” she said.

Ms Allen reflect on the growth of the Gippsland Sculpture Exhibition, which has gone from strength-to-strength since the inaugural event in 2017.

“There was a tiny little town in Canada which was looking to reinvent itself after its major industry closed down,” she said.

“When I first move to Yinnar, I thought it would be the perfect town to do something similar.

“It is a testament to the people of the people of Yinnar, who have volunteered their time and effort to the event, as well as the support of the YDCA, Latrobe City Council and Bendigo Bank.

“We’re on the lookout now for support for the next exhibition which will be held in March 2023.”

The latest chapter of a family legacy was

from the actual game of basketball going on. A back-and-forth opening term saw scores locked at 19 apiece for the Round 8 clash.

The true nature of the contest opened up thereafter, as the Phoenix took advantage of their less conditioned opponents.

Having not played in over a month due to COVID complications, the Taipans understandably deteriorated after quarter time. Phoenix capitalised on a number of turnovers in the second, and shot a commanding 30 points to 18.

With a 49-37 half-time deficit, the Taipans did their best to eat away at the margin and got it back to six in the third.

Although the Phoenix was outscored 15 to 19 in this quarter, treys to Cam Gliddon and co-captain Mitch Creek ensured the men in green keep the game under control and the scoreboard out of reach for the Taipans.

The Phoenix played the game out in the last, scoring 23 points to 21 on their way to a 10 point victory. Phoenix forward Brandon Ashley saved the best for last, icing the match with a dunk at the foyer end of the court.

Creek was superb for the winners, shooting 26 points, with eight rebounds and seven steals - a new Phoenix record.

Phoenix coach Simon Mitchell said the team

may well have found an extra gear thanks to the parochial support of locals.

“You could not hear a thing out there in the gym tonight, they were loud as all heck. (I’m) really taken aback by the people of Traralgon and what they were able to do for us in the game tonight and I thought that they carried our energy levels and helped us continue to put pressure on the opposition with the energy they provided us,” he said.

“I’m glad we put on a pretty good show for them tonight, too.”

Phoenix chief executive officer Tommy Greer said the organisation was overwhelmed by what transpired in Traralgon.

“We were excited to put this game on, and have had wonderful support from Latrobe City Council and state government,” he said.

“To see it come to fruition last night with a great crowd was fantastic.

“The noise and atmosphere was amazing, our players drew off their energy and it created what I’m sure was a real cauldron feel for Cairns.”

The success of the game paid off in more ways than one for Latrobe City Council, who hardly had to dip into the piggy bank to make it happen, providing $50,000 in cash and $5000 in-kind support.

Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said

the atmosphere inside the stadium was a sight to behold.

“I said to one of my colleagues when I arrived ‘the energy in this building is like nothing I have seen’,” she said.

“The excitement from kids, from families - the noise that was generated - there was a wonderful post from the Phoenix, they posted ‘you’re loud Traralgon!’ That probably summed up what everyone was feeling, I think there was a real desire from the community to be able to get out and celebrate these events and get involved and engaged in it.”

Cr O’Callaghan believed the flow-on effect from the match would be seen in the months to come.

“The number of kids in that stadium was significant, the number of families that turned out to be able to participate, they got right into the spirit of the whole event, it wasn’t just ‘I’m turning up to watch a game’,” she said.

“Everyone was there in their club gear, everyone was there with a really clear intent and a purpose, the number of kids and families we’ve caught up with subsequent to the game who are just even more excited about their connection to the South East Melbourne Phoenix now is really lovely and I think it gives them something to look forward to - gives our kids something to aspire to.”

While it is unconfirmed whether or not there will be another NBL match here soon, it seems the Phoenix may well have followed the tried-and-true philosophy seen in the circus of ‘always leave town making the audience want more’.

“We plan for this to be an ongoing partnership, we want to keep working with the Phoenix around the opportunities we might have, that might be welcoming them back for more games, but I like to think that will develop into something that is also about them being engaged with our community and being able to use us as a great base in terms of what they are looking to do into the future,” Cr O’Callaghan said.

“Given the warm reception they’ve received and how loud we were on the night I think they know that we love the team, we love the sport and we love the opportunity to get out and get involved.”

For organisers, to have nearly 3000 people turn up for a game of basketball on a Tuesday night would have surely only served to reinforce the message ‘build it and they will come’.

With the match broadcast to a worldwide audience on ESPN, one can only imagine how many sets of eyes the spectacle was witnessed on.

To the basketball loving public of Gippsland, this wasn’t just an NBL game - it was a celebration.

THOSE living within close proximity to the Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports Stadium could have been forgiven for thinking another earthquake had struck the region the night before Australia Day. With the National Basketball League making its way to Traralgon for an in-season game between South East Melbourne Phoenix and Cairns Taipains, locals came out in force and full voice to show their support for the Phoenix, who it seems have quickly been adopted as Gippsland’s team.

If there was ever any doubt an elite basketball match in Latrobe City would generate enough interest, it was surely quashed at the mere sight of cars lining roads leading into the stadium.

Vehicles went right around Catterick Crescent and stretched as far back as Kosciuszko St. While this has been a familiar sight for all the wrong reasons in recent times, it was refreshing to see so many cars in this instance.

Even those with no or limited interest in basketball would have been staggered at how loud the stadium was.

Spectators raucously hollered whenever the Taipans took a free throw, and applauded wildly any time the Phoenix nailed a three pointer.

Chants of ‘defence’ were followed by two claps, or in some cases, two stomps of the feet which reverberated with such force they had sections of the retractable grand stands shaking.

At times the noise was literally deafening - so much so players and officials reportedly could not hear each other. Spectators at least could hardly hear the court announcer.

A graphic on the electronic scoreboard telling the crowd to ‘make some noise’ became redundant - they didn’t need any further encouragement.

Without diving into hyperbole, it is plausible the Taipans, who ended up losing the match 87 to 77, would have felt as if they were trapped underwater inside a cage with hundreds of sharks circling to see their demise.

Phoenix staff pulled out all the stops to make sure the night was as fun for those attending as possible.

Cheerleaders danced during time outs, while smoke machines went off whenever the home team shot a three pointer.

The Phoenix mascot entertained, at one point running onto the court and alongside the congregation while running away from a makeshift security guard to the cult classic song ‘Surfin Bird’.

T-shirts were also catapulted into the stands, and a well behaved crowd ensured there was no Maude Flanders style endings.

With all this going on, it was easy to get distracted

New head of St Paul’s Traralgon

By ALYSSA FRITZLAFF

A NEW era at St Paul’s Anglican Grammar School in Traralgon will be led by teacher Leonie Clark.

As St Paul’s welcomes the first Year 7 students that will be able to continue to Year 11 and 12 at the Valley’s campus, Ms Clark has been appointed the new Head of St Paul’s Traralgon Secondary School.

Ms Clark comes with a wealth of experience, having worked at a number of schools across Australia, including Geelong Grammar School, Methodist Ladies’ College and Canberra Girls Grammar School.

St Paul’s principal Cameron Herbert commended Ms Clark for her impressive skill set.

She is “an outstanding communicator who is extremely well-organised and efficient,” Mr Herbert said.

“Leonie is a highly motivated, creative and passionate professional.”

Ms Clark has a long history at St Paul’s, first working at the Warragul campus in 2006 and 2007, before moving to Queensland.

She returned in 2016, and was appointed Head of Year 9 at the former Miller’s Factory Year 9 Centre in Warragul.

Last year she took in a parental-leave position as the Head of St Paul’s Warragul Secondary School.

Ms Clark is delighted to be taking on the new role, especially at such an exciting time in the school’s history.

“St Paul’s is a school that, for me, when I walk through the door it feels like home. It feels like a really safe place, and a place that aligns beautifully with my values,” she said.

“St Paul’s is a very unique school, it is the best school that I have taught in.”

First day: Billie Whykes, Nate Mulder, Matilda Burke and Robert Pearce were excited to begin Prep at Churchill Primary School.

Ms Clark said she was inspired to apply for the role because she loved her former leadership position at Warragul so much.

“I really loved working with the staff and the students at that level. It was really exciting to lead a campus and to be motivating people,” she said.

The 2022 Year 7s will be the first Year 7s to go through to Year 11 and 12 at the Traralgon Campus, and Ms Clark is elated to be part of the leadership team involved.

“I cannot wait to grow this community, to grow our staff,” she said.

Ms Clark is particularly excited about the schools new Futures Centre, which has just started being constructed this year.

“It will have a performance space, a recording studio and collaborative learning spaces, a health and wellbeing centre and library and information hub,” she said.

Prep students begin school journey

By ALYSSA FRITZLAFF

MOE’S South Street Primary and Churchill Primary School were buzzing with excited energy when they began the new school year on Monday.

The Moe school has two classes of Preps starting this year, made up of 21 students including twins Jack and Leo Bawden.

Both boys were full of smiles as they took the momentous step into primary school, each supported by the other.

South St Primary School’s assistant principal Sandi Kilpatrick said all staff and students were excited to be back from holidays.

“We look forward to this year with our students in classrooms, building relationships with their peers and our staff,” she said.

“We know the children will engage in wonderful learning opportunities inside their classroom and in our specialist classes - Digitech, Art, Music and PE.” Churchill Primary School had a slightly larger intake this year, with a total of 24 Preps starting, along with a few new students in other year levels.

School principal Jacquie Burrows said a major priority for the staff is to keep the school year as normal as possible.

“We want to keep the kids at school. We will hopefully start planning some excursions and things that the kids have missed out on. We are having an extra camp, because we were in lockdown last time.”

“We are just trying to give the kids a normal year and make up for some of the fun and exciting things that they missed out on.”

While last year was a challenging year for all schools, Ms Burrows said all the new students

All over the campus kids were seen in their classrooms, learning face-to-face among their peers.

Loud laughs and happy giggles could be heard through open classroom doors.

New prep students Billie Whykes, Nate Mulder, Matilda Burke and Robert Pearce were elated to be at the campus, and enjoyed playing on the play equipment together.

Ms Burrows said that despite the rocky last few years, the new prep students began their first day with big smiles.

“I think the kids are resilient, they’ve all come in with smiles and they are all very happy,” she said.

The school is taking many measures to ensure all staff and students are safe, in line with government recommendations.

“We have masks in Grades 3 to 6, and we are trying to keep the kids in cohorts when they go

out to play and obviously the kids have to do rapid antigen tests twice a week,” Ms Burrows said.

However, neither staff or students appear to mind the extra measures, they are just happy to be back in the classroom and out on the playgrounds.

“Everyone’s used to it now, so they’re all excited - maybe a bit nervous - but everyone’s been really positive,” Ms Burrows said.

Caroline on The March Charge

By ALYSSA FRITZLAFF

WORLD Cancer Day is this Friday and local woman Caroline Lia is calling for support.

Mrs Lia, a Newborough resident, is asking people to get behind Cancer Council Victoria’s first ever Research Giving Day. From 9am-9pm, on Friday, February 4, all donations will doubled by matched donors to help fund cancer research.

An average of 515 people in the Latrobe Valley are diagnosed with cancer each year, according to the Cancer Council, and in 2016, Mrs Lia was one of them.

After being diagnosed with breast cancer six years ago, Mrs Lia has spent many years fighting the disease.

Following her first diagnosis, she underwent radiation treatments.

“It was so tiring, but I got through it,” she said.

In January 2018, Mrs Lia had been striving to become a healthier person, she began walking regularly and discovered parkrun.

However, as she reached her peak fitness level in May 2018, she also received her second cancer diagnosis and had to undergo chemotherapy sessions and immune-therapy sessions.

“In January I started walking around home, and then I started parkrun ... and it got to May and something just didn’t feel right,” she said.

“Because my fitness journey had just started, it made me want to keep going.”

Caroline has since kept up with her fitness, and is currently doing a virtual run around Australia.

“I’ve been doing it for two years.

“You walk or run, at your own pace around Australia, you start in Canberra and you end up in Sydney. At the moment I’m not far out of Broome.”

Mrs Lia is also channelling her passion for fitness into the Cancer Council’s ‘The March Charge’, a fitness challenged that raises funds for cancer research, prevention programs and support services.

She is very passionate about raising money for cancer research, and hopes others will do what they can.

“It’s very important that they keep researching, because they’re always finding answers and something else that may actually help with the disease,” she said.

“The more we can find out the better, so

Run: Caroline Lia is passionate about cancer research. that - maybe not my generation - but the next generation will be able to face cancer a bit better.”

Millions of dollars are spend on cancer research every year, and very donation can help.

“In 2020, even with the COVID-19 pandemic’s impact on our fundraising, we spent $23.7 million on cancer research. Together we can continue to fund world-class local research to improve diagnosis, detection, and treatment for every cancer,”

Cancer Council Victoria chief executive officer Todd Harper said.

“For 12 hours, every dollar you give will have twice the impact for the 34,675 Victorians diagnosed with cancer each year and will bring us closer to a future without cancer.”

Official opening of Mirboo North swimming pool MIRBOO North’s refurbished pool promises even more summer fun for locals.

The updated facility was formally opened on Australia Day by Labor Member for Eastern Victoria Harriet Shing.

“The local community has been so passionate about this project, and I’m delighted the Victorian government has been able to help make it happen,” she said.

“The timing has also been excellent – investments like these are all about creating jobs, stimulating local economies, and fast-tracking community recovery by improving health, wellbeing, and social and economic outcomes.”

The upgrade was made possible by a $3.6 million loan from the governments Community Sports Infrastructure Loans Scheme to South Gippsland Shire Council.

Locals pitched in $700,000 for the project through fundraising by Friends of Mirboo North Pool and the Mirboo North Pool Committee, and $100,000 from the Mirboo North Bendigo Community Bank.

The pool has been open since 1904, and has been an integral part of the Mirboo North community.

The facility has long been used for recreation, learn to swim programs and school swimming sports.

The refurbished pool is 25 metres in length with new modern upgrades. Additional upgrades were given to the learn-to-swim pool and a new water play area.

Other additions included new wet decks, an accessible pavilion, a community program room, a kiosk and a new plant room.

“Council is pleased to have received strong support for the Mirboo North pool refurbishment from the local Mirboo North community and all levels of government,” South Gippsland Shire Mayor Mohya Davies said.

“The Victorian government’s loan scheme was particularly helpful as it enabled us to progress the project and deliver a fantastic new aquatic facility to the Mirboo North community.”

Climate targets the focus for AGL

By MICHELLE SLATER

ENERGY giant AGL is in the midst of establishing climate targets for both of its proposed companies ahead of its planned demerger, with details expected to be announced next week.

AGL will unveil its half-yearly results at a stakeholder meeting with further details on its plans to split the company into two separate entities Accel Energy and AGL Australia.

AGL Australia will be focusing on energy retail, while Accel will hold on to the portfolio of coal and gas.

However, it is unclear how this could affect the Loy Yang A closure date by 2048 with the company’s current climate statement outlining targets to achieve net zero by 2050.

An AGL spokeswoman said the new climate commitments would enable “each business to focus on their respective strategic opportunities and challenges presented by the accelerating energy transition”.

“As Australia’s largest electricity generator and largest electricity retailer, we recognise our significant role in the energy transition and energy needs with the commitment to decarbonise.”

The spokeswoman said AGL still believed thermal generation had an “important role to play” as the energy industry phased out coal and gas.

“The exit of thermal generation must happen responsibly and via a co-ordinated plan across governments, industry, regulators and the community,” she said.

It comes as health care workers and community members held an action outside of AGL’s Melbourne headquarters on Monday calling to replace coal with renewables by 2030.

The group set up a mock medical ward with dying patients to demonstrate the health impacts of air pollution and climate change, warning the “climate crisis could dwarf the impacts of COVID-19”.

Latrobe Valley mental health nurse Veronique Hamilton addressed the rally stating that Loy Yang A’s 2048 closure date was “unrealistic”.

“AGL needs to come clean with the community about a realistic and appropriate plan to replace it with renewable energy and ensure a transition that includes skilled local jobs,” Ms Hamilton said.

Healthy futures: Gippsland healthcare workers and community members Heike Weber, Latrobe Valley mental health nurse Veronique Hamilton, Warragul GP Benjamin Lewis and Dan Caffrey rallied at AGL headquarters on Monday. photograph supplied “As a mental health professional, I see a lot of uncertainty in the community about both climate change and the future of the energy industry, and that can have severe impacts on people’s mental health.”

The state government reiterated its commitments to work with “all energy market participants to

ensure an orderly energy transition which protects workers and regions”.

“The Victorian government continues to implement nation leading renewable energy reforms which are delivering thousands of jobs, energy security and lower power prices for Victorians,” a government spokesperson said.

The Range Retirement Village is a retirement living community in Moe, boasting high-quality residential villas set inside a gated community.

Nationals Member for Eastern Victoria Melina Bath said the state government had an “urgent responsibility” to “come clean” on its plans for the Valley, whatever the update from AGL. “Labor must work with the community and industry to ensure the right planning and investment is provided,” Ms Bath said.

Villas now available

Major boost for health services

Become a girl guide

Fun: Traralgon Girl Guides are excited to welcome new members.

LATROBE Valley Girl Guides are preparing for another fun-filled year.

The Traralgon Girl Guides are launching a new fourth unit, for girl aged five to seven years old, ensuring all ages can take advantage of the opportunities Girl Guides offers.

Girl Guides region manager Amanda Clark said this is primarily due to the significant growth the Traralgon Girl Guides have experienced over the last 12 months.

“We went from 16 girls to 36 girls ... and we had six or seven year olds in with the nine year olds, they’re at a different developmental age,” she said.

“We’ve already managed to get something like 11 girls registered for the new unit to start next week.”

Similar activities will be offered for this unit as

other units in the Girl Guides, however they will be targeted towards their developmental stage.

“We want the girls to have a say over what they get out of their program. We want to start building their skills from a really young age, so they get to have a say in what they are doing and learning.”

Morwell Girl Guides will be kicking of the new year on Monday, February 8 with a water fight night. Both new and old girl guides are welcome.

Additionally, both groups are looking forward to their first big camp of the year in early March.

They are set to visit Coonawarra, where they will engage in activities aimed at improving confidence, resilience and friendships. Canoeing, horse-riding and abseiling are on the agenda for this fun-filled getaway.

Other fun camps are on the cards for the

remainder of the year, with state wide camps and other fun activities.

The Newborough Girl Guides are hosting a ‘Come and Try Girl Guides’ day for $10 this Saturday for girls aged six and over.

Parents are required to stay for the evening and girls will be required to bring a packed lunch.

“You can stay in your comfort zone, and that’s okay ... but if you push that comfort zone just a little bit beautiful things happen,” Ms Clark said.

“That’s usually when people have the most fun, they create amazing friendships and memories.

“So if you’re a little bit unsure (about joining Girl Guides) that’s okay, come and give it a go.

You might just be surprised.”

RSVPs required.

THIRTY-THREE health services across Victoria have received funding for the latest medical equipment.

The $85 million grant will be split across the health services in a bid help Victoria to continue to provide world-class healthcare.

The funded equipment includes CT scanners, digital X-Ray units, ultrasounds, operating room microscope, and heart imaging equipment.

Additionally, 25 metropolitan and regional health services will share another $50 million as part of the Engineering Infrastructure Replacement Program, which will upgrade and replace important engineering infrastructure such as generators, emergency lighting, nurse call systems and patient lifts.

“We’re investing in health services across the state, helping them deliver the high-quality care Victorians deserve and ensure hospitals can continue doing what they do best – saving lives,” Health Minister Martin Foley said.

“Every Victorian deserves access to high quality, safe care when they need it – we’re supporting health services to do just that “We’re making sure our busiest hospitals have the vital infrastructure and equipment they need – because Victorians should be able to access quality healthcare, no matter where they live.”

New priest welcomed ST Michael’s, Traralgon has a new parish priest.

Father Aju Varghese was welcomed to St Michael’s recently, and can now add Traralgon to the number of parishes he has served in the Catholic Diocese of Sale.

Since moving to Australia a decade ago, Ft Aju has served in virtually every pocket of Gippsland.

“I arrived in Australia from India in 2012, my first appointment was in Bairnsdale parish, then I moved to Leongatha as the assistant parish priest of Leongatha, Korumburra, Foster and Yarram,” he explained.

“When I was in Bairnsdale we went to Omeo, Benambra, a lot of churches in 10 years, a lot of people.

“Three priests lived in Leongatha and when we moved around to those parishes, starting from Woodside to Loch, that was a nice experience, a lot of driving through countryside, staying at Leongatha and driving to Yarram for masses.

“After serving as the assistant priest for two years there I was appointed as the administrator of the St Mary’s Cathedral at Sale, then in 2016 I was appointed as the parish priest of Leongatha and Korumburra parishes.

“Now I am in Traralgon for another chapter of my life.”

Fr Aju was ordained in 2005, and worked in his home country and the Philippines - where he was hospital chaplain - before making the journey to Australia.

“More than 1000 patients, most of them Catholic, so there were two priests staying in the hospital looking after the needs of patients and offering mass,” he said.

The move to Australia came about through his religious order with the Carmelites of Mary Immaculate, who were asked to send two priest to Australia.

Fr Aju said he was looking forward to serving the Traralgon parish, especially in a church

featuring majestic colour French glass windows dominating the north and south walls.

“It is a beautiful church, I really enjoy when I am in the church it looks fantastic, especially in these summer times when there is sun, the bright light and all the glasses are beautiful,” he said.

“I’m happy to come to Traralgon, it is a new appointment for me, a bigger town compared to Leongatha.”

With St Michael’s taking in the neighbouring primary school of the same name as well as St Gabriel’s and Lavalla Catholic College, Fr Aju will be kept busy conducting a number of masses throughout the school year.

“We have two schools and a college so once the schools are open there are so many things we have to do there,” he said.

“Opening masses and the sacrament programs we have to plan, that will be my next month.”

Away from the priesthood, Fr Aju pointed to cooking as a hobby, and somewhat surprisingly given many priests are known to be avid golfers, Fr Aju said his main sport of interest was basketball.

Monday is the official day off for priests, and Fr Aju said he also enjoyed connecting with the other 34 priests in the Diocese.

“We have a great friendship in our Diocese, and people on Monday if two or three priests can get together for lunch or dinner they do that,” he said.

Fr Aju replaces Fr Francis Otobo, who has moved to St Mary’s Cathedral, Sale, as administrator, while former St Michael’s assistant priest Ft Ajin Albarnas has made the move to Narre Warren.

Fr Aju will conduct mass at St Michael’s alongside Deacon Tony Aspinall.

Mass times at St Michael’s are: Saturday 5pm, Sunday 9.30am and Sunday 5pm, with weekday masses Tuesday (9.30am), Wednesday (Adoration 11am, mass 12pm), Thursday (9.30am) and Friday (9.30am).

Yinnar to host food truck event

By ALYSSA FRITZLAFF

Delicious: The Yinnar Food Truck Festival is happening on February 13.

YINNAR will play host to the ‘Yinnar Food Truck Festival’ on Sunday, February 13.

The new event was organised by Yinnar South community members Skye De Hommel and Victor De Beer, who felt the community needed something positive to kick start the year.

They decided to bring an event to Yinnar that gives the community an opportunity to get together and enjoy each other’s company all the while enjoying delicious food from a variety of vendors.

“It was born out of the fact that Yinnar and Yinnar South have faced some very significant weather events over the last two years ... the idea behind the event is to get people together,” said Mr De Beer.

“We are hoping to provide the community with different tastes, different textures, different cultures that they probably wouldn’t be able to access locally.”

Between eight to 10 food trucks are currently expected at the festival, including ‘That Charcoal Meat Guy’, ‘Dypsy Jypsy Soft Serve’, ‘Amazing Calamari’, ‘Twisted Spudz and Dogz’ and ‘Doin’ Dumplings’.

Entry to the event is free, with meals averaging $15 each.

Live entertainment will also be provided by local musicians.

“We’ve got three different bands that are coming, and we’ve also got a person who does busking,” Mr De Beer said.

“We approached them, for the music industry it has been a really tough year.”

More than 3000 people have already shown interest in the event on Facebook, and Mr De Beer said he and Ms De Hommel hope it will be a success and bring more visitors into Yinnar.

Attendees are encouraged to bring a picnic blanket or some camping chairs to relax on while they enjoy the food and music.

The festival is being held a Yinnar Recreation Reserve (88-144 Jumbuk Rd Yinnar), from 3pm until 8pm.

The full list of food trucks is available on the event’s Facebook page: https:// fb.me/e/2SKNYggns

Rural odyssey helps prepare junior doctors THE new cohort of interns and junior doctors have taken up positions right across Australia for their 2022 placements, with many starting work in country hospitals and general practices in rural and remote towns.

Rural Doctors Association of Australia (RDAA) president Dr Megan Belot said that rural rotations provide one of the most beneficial experiences in a junior doctor’s training.

“Regardless of their future plans, time spent in a rural hospital or workplace is invaluable to a doctor’s understanding of the needs of their rural patients – whether that be while in a rural town, or when seeing patients referred in from the bush later in their career,” Dr Belot said.

“We love for them to get a great experience, and we know that some will fall in love with rural medicine and follow that pathway.

“It’s also an opportunity for many city based junior doctors to put their hand up and do a short term rural placement and see for themselves the variety in the clinical caseload as well as the broad range of training and career opportunities that exist in rural and remote settings, with amazing mentors and quality supervision.

“Many will return to the large hospitals in metro centres to complete their training, but we hope that some will return later in their medical training journey or even later elect to provide much needed outreach work into rural communities as a Consultant Specialist.

“But even if they never return to work in a rural setting, the insight they gain into the challenges faced by rural patients in accessing care, particularly non-GP specialist care, makes a real difference.

“Understanding the travel times, the impact of being away from work and family, and the difficulty of remaining away from home to seek treatment can really help these specialists plan treatment plans and consultations more sympathetically to their rural patients.”

LOOKING BACK THROUGH THE YEARS “We don’t want to be involved in a project we can’t do that with,’’ director Paul DeNicola said during a visit to the Latrobe Valley yesterday.

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.

Joint project to ‘green’ our Valley

50 YEARS AGO WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1972

No LV shop age discrimination Latrobe Valley supermarkets and large stores deny that they have a policy of dismissing female employees when they reach senior status.

“These allegations are something of a hardy annual which crop up, especially when employment is not so easy to come by,” a spokesman for a large chain store organisation in Morwell, Moe and Traralgon said.

The Commonwealth Employment Officer in Morwell, Con Doherty, said the complaint was heard more often at intermediate level than senior.

Safer soon A section of a Latrobe Valley road described by nearby residents as a tow truck operator’s ‘’paradise’’ will soon be made safer.

It is a section of the road between APM’s Maryvale mill and Morwell.

Residents say there are about two accidents a week on the steep section running between the two clay pits.

Morwell Shire will spend $30,000 on reconstructing the road from Crinigan Road, Morwell to the junction of Old Melbourne Road, and $10,000 on resealing it.

10,000 metre record slashed by Mike Traill The best distance runners assembled in Gippsland Little Athletics covered themselves in glory at Ronald Reserve, Morwell last Thursday when all seven boys who finished in the 10,000 metres broke the existing Under-12 world record.

Winner of the glamour race, a first over this distance in local athletics, was Morwell’s Mike Traill, who sliced a staggering 10 minutes, 49.1 seconds off the existing record, held by Mike O’Hara of the United States.

Traill ran a time of 40.51.9.

Runner-up to Traill was Shane McLachlan (Traralgon), with Wayne Mayall, Gary Milburn, Michael Millar, Anthony Knott and Ric Watson also breaking the previous mark.

Water bans to stay Tight water restrictions in the TyersGlengarry area will not be eased despite a statement from the Latrobe Valley Water and Sewerage Board that the level of Moondarra Dam is rising and so water bans were not necessary.

The restrictions forbid Tyers-Glengarry people from watering their lawns between 10pm and 5am daily, and using sprinklers or any other form of irrigation.

East win by eight runs Morwell East and Yallourn Yallourn North turned on a game equal to what would have been expected of two sides battling for fourth place in the CGCA. The game was in doubt until the last wicket fell, giving East a victory by eight runs.

Morwell East scored 9/121 batting first with Michael Smith (39) holding the innings together as Graeme Freshwater (6/38) made a welcome return with the ball.

Yallourn Yallourn North finished all out 113 despite a courageous 48 from Rudi Bence.

Plans for giant tourist complex

Southern so sure there’s a profit with Loy Yang B

A multi-million dollar tourist complex has been planned for the Erica-Walhalla area, and it is envisaged that it will become one of the biggest tourist attractions in Victoria.

The complex will involve the full reconstruction of the Erica to Walhalla railway line and the implementation of three G42

Southern Electric International believes it can run Loy Yang B as a profitable project.

SEI, a subsidiary of giant American Southern Company, which is the largest electric utility in the country, is confident it can offer ‘’an attractive price and a deliverable deal’’ when the bids close on February 28.

The Latrobe Regional Commission and SEC’s multi-million dollar joint program to beautify and rehabilitate non-urban brown coal areas in the Latrobe Valley has finally started.

‘Greening the Valley’, which is part of the Latrobe Region Landscape Improvement Program, will examine land managed by the SEC and other areas affected by SEC activities with a view to co-ordinating landscaping, rehabilitation and land management.

SEC corporate manager of environment Dr Harry Schaap indicated the SEC was strongly committed to the initiative.

“The SEC through its greenhouse strategy and the rehabilitation committee, is already addressing many of the environmental problems arising from its activities,” he said.

“Greening the Valley is a positive extension of our efforts and we are pleased to be able to work closely with the LRC on this program.”

New accessible toilet for Moe LATROBE City Council has received an $110,000 funding boost from the state government to build a new toilet at Apex Park, Moe. The Changing Places accessible toilet will be situated close by the All Abilities Play Space in the park, and will be a standalone facility.

Changing Places provides toilet facilities for those who are unable to use standard bathrooms and include things such as height adjustable adult-size change tables, constant charging ceiling track hoist systems and centrally located peninsula toilets.

Currently there are 195 Changing Places

accessible toilets across Australia - 90 of these are in Victoria.

The toilet in Moe will be the third of its kind in Latrobe City, with existing facilities in at Traralgon Library and Service Centre and the Gippsland Regional Aquatic Centre.

Latrobe City Council will contribute $100,000 to deliver the project in the next financial year, as part of the state government’s Changing Places Program.

Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said she is looking forward to the project’s completion.

“Latrobe City Council is committed to making our community facilities and spaces accessible to the whole community. This project will further enhance access to this much-loved park and make it a destination for local families and visitors to the region,” Cr O’Callaghan said.

“We would like to acknowledge the support from the Victorian government for this important facility upgrade and we look forward to seeing it completed.”

In 2021, the state government provided $2.5 million to expand the Changing Places initiative.

SAPUTO Dairy Australia Pty Ltd has recalled six types of butter due to potential contamination.

The butter potentially contains microbial contamination that could cause illness in consumers.

The products have been available for sale nationally at various supermarkets and outlets, including Woolworths, Coles, ALDI, independent supermarkets and Costco.

HOROSCOPES

by Joanne Madeline Moore

January 31 - February 6, 2022

Aries The New Moon and retrograde

Mercury shake up and reboot your peer group and work zones. So, a friend or colleague from the past could boomerang back into your world! Whatever happens, do your best to surround yourself with authentic people who help you in hard times, encourage your talents and support your dreams. As birthday great Bob Marley reminds us: “True friends are like stars; you can only recognize them when it’s dark around you.”

Libra No less than seven planets – the Sun, Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Saturn and Pluto – are currently transiting through your family and friends zones. So it’s time to focus on the important people in your life who make your world go ’round. Make sure you love, nurture and appreciate them to the max! Your motto for the moment is from actor and singer Harry Styles (who turns 28 on Tuesday): “I’ve got a really good family; I’ve got great friends around me.”

Taurus This week you’ll be in the public eye in some way as the New Moon, Saturn and the Sun stimulate your reputation/career zone.

So, you could shine at work, at school or in a volunteer position. When it comes to your job, do you need to upskill? Are you looking for employment or is it time to change vocation?

The winds of change are blowing so prepare to pivot! Are you looking for love? You could be attracted to someone from another country or culture.

Scorpio Peace-loving Venus is now moving

Gemini Mercury (planet of communication and commerce) is reversing through one of your money zones until February 4. So avoid signing contracts and buying bigticket items until after Friday. In the meantime, look for creative ways to recycle resources and boost cash flow. Plus, be extra careful how you pass on information. If you make assumptions or give vague instructions, then you’ll be misunderstood. Clear thinking and a patient approach will get you through.

Sagittarius When it comes to a

Cancer Expect some communication

Capricorn The New Moon stimulates

Leo Retrograde Mercury is activating your

Aquarius On Monday, you may feel frustrated by current constraints in a relationship with your partner or a family member. And Mercury is still retrograde until Friday, so you could be rushed into making some hasty, half-baked decisions this week.

Don’t worry if you make a messy mistake though. As Irish writer (and birthday great) James Joyce reminds us: “Mistakes are the portals of discovery”. Your annual Aquarian New Moon suggests a promising fresh start.

chaos, as Mercury reverses through your relationship zone until Friday. It’s a time when unresolved issues may be dredged up all over again. On Monday, a romantic relationship or a professional partnership could veer off in an unpredictable direction. When it comes to your career, don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater! Try to get the balance right between keeping what works and exploring exciting new options.

work zone, so be very clear when you’re communicating with bosses, colleagues, clients and/or customers. What you say and what they hear may be two different things. Keep them up to date with what you are doing, otherwise misunderstandings are likely. If you’re applying for a job, make sure you do all the research required before your interview. Winging it is not recommended … this week the devil is in the detail.

Virgo The New Moon highlights your health and wellbeing zone, so strive to be the fittest and most vibrant Virgo you can be. No lame excuses or empty promises. Get your body moving ASAP! Reinvention is the name of the game, as Saturn urges you to reboot your daily routine with discipline and determination.

The best way to handle stress is with relaxing indoor pursuits (like meditation or yoga) and vigorous outdoor activities (like running, cycling or hiking).

forward, but Mercury is still in retrograde mode until Friday. So do your best to keep the conversation flowing with a sulky sibling or a grumpy relative. The New Moon encourages you to patch up a rocky relationship with a frazzled family member, as you demonstrate endless patience and hold out the olive branch of peace. As music legend (and birthday great) Bob Marley sang: “Overcome the devils with a thing called love.”

relative, neighbour or work colleague, hold onto your seat and prepare for a roller-coaster ride. The New Moon inspires you to contribute your versatile talents to a worthy cause within your local community. Then satisfying connections and positive friendships will follow.

Friday is your lucky day, when Mercury moves forwards and Mars and Jupiter make a positive connection. So a financial issue or a family problem is set to improve.

your cash zone, so take stock of your financial situation and initiate some smart strategies.

And don’t forget to do an inventory of your inner wealth, which includes your self-esteem and core Capricorn values. Remember – you are more than your job, what you earn and what you own. With love planet Venus visiting your sign (until March 6) romance is in the air.

Singles – amazing synchronicities could lead you to your soulmate.

Pisces Thanks to the influence of the New

Moon in your spirituality zone, solitude is soul food for you at the moment. So put aside some special ‘me time’ as you meditate, contemplate, ruminate, slow down, calm down and re-calibrate. With Mercury in retrograde mode (until Friday) pursuing your goals and dreams won’t be a direct journey. There will be lots of frustrating twists and turns along the way! So, plenty of patience is required this week, Pisces.

How big of a moment was this?: Dan Caffrey writes the first shipment of liquefied hydrogen from Hastings was not the breakthrough it has been touted by the likes of Energy Minister Angus Taylor and fellow HESC proponents. photograph supplied

All hype, no substance THE Australia-wide media hype around the recent first shipment of liquefied hydrogen from the Port of Hastings was heralded as a breakthrough by the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) proponents. However, this is tempered by the fact that the hydrogen was made from coal.

Coal to hydrogen will never be the way to reach carbon-zero.

To produce just three tonnes of hydrogen for this consignment, up to 500 tonnes of CO2 was released into the atmosphere. Admittedly, this was offset by buying carbon credits. But this does not include the CO2 released in the production of electricity to cool it to -253 C to liquefy it.

The federal and state governments each contributed $50 million with the Japanese government putting in another $56 million out of the $496 million cost to get it to this stage.

Energy Minister Angus Taylor has promised tens of millions more taxpayer dollars to help commercialise it and to subsidise the unproven Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) necessary for it to proceed.

In view of the urgency of addressing the looming climate catastrophe the hundreds of millions of taxpayer dollars would be much better spent on developing carbon dioxide-free Green Hydrogen from the electrolysis of water.

The HESC project is just another government funded gift for the fossil fuel industry to keep extracting coal for the benefit of only the coal miners. It will do little to reduce carbon emissions in the long run.

Dan Caffrey, Latrobe Valley Sustainability Group

Summer storm in Morwell Rose Garden FEW things have I found in my life to be quite as mystical as being in Morwell Rose Garden before, during, and after a rainstorm.

Few things can compare in the way the scent of the roses subtly changes with the anticipation that the high winds and grey clouds bring into the atmosphere of the garden.

Few things have I found to be quite as intoxicating as to find the wall of summer rain moving in one direction through the garden, as if the roses themselves were weeping out of the sheer beauty of it all.

And then to feel the aftermath, the slow and melodious dripping of the raindrops from the tips of the rose petals and the leaves of the trees.

To witness and hear the birds in their first songs of relief that the rain has resided, and to capture in your lungs the freshest of air.

Nothing is holier, nothing is higher or more beautiful in life.

What an experience it is!

Joseph Lis, Morwell

Victoria exists outside the city limits THERE has been significant state-wide commentary over the last fortnight in response to the state government’s plan to cut the speed limit across our country road network.

When Labor assumed government in 2014, they swiftly axed the Liberal and Nationals’ well-supported Country Roads and Bridges program that was maintaining roads and rebuilding deteriorating bridges across the state.

Since that time, Labor has neglected our road and bridge infrastructure, with funding being cut to the bone – another 25 per cent reduction in the current budget period alone.

When it comes to our bridges, Victoria is allocating a mere $20 million a year to slap a band aid across them. That’s compared to NSW’s annual $500 million fund to maintain and replace their bridge infrastructure.

Labor’s lazy policy amounts to nothing more than a scandalous act of sticking their head in the sand and ignoring the issue.

Disappointingly, there is now a very real concern that Victoria’s crumbling road network is risking the lives of freighters and commuters.

Those of us who live and work in regional Victoria look on and see mega-projects being installed across Melbourne, all while we struggle for basic roads.

We don’t begrudge the $52 billion being spent on these projects.

We object to the people living in country towns and regional cities not getting their fair share.

The bitter pill we refuse to swallow is the total disrespect and lack of accountability Labor takes when spending taxpayers’ money – your money.

The gross negligence on the West Gate Tunnel and Melbourne Metro projects sits at approximately $6 billion alone.

If I factor in the cost over-runs on all major projects in Melbourne, that cost blows out to a waste of $23 billion taxpayer dollars.

That is $23 billion of your money that has gone towards absolutely nothing. Except for the bulging coffers of the contractors bungling these projects under the nose of the state government. That money could revolutionise our road network, and so much more.

Yet regional Victorians sit, looking patiently to the horizon, hoping that Labor’s city-centric government will someday remember that Victoria extends past the outskirts of Melbourne.

Based on his book of the same name, this foodie adventure sees him cooking on the beach (his favourite spot) as well as the kitchen (another place he obviously loves). The show is all about food that makes him feel good and the feeling is infectious. It’s hard to object with Harriott’s fervour.

PICK OF THE WEEK LA BREA Nine, Monday, 9.10pm

Who could forget the cult series Lost? As possibly one of the best TV series ever made, it’s only natural there will be other shows that copy its mysterious, sci-fi flavour.

Melbourne-made series La Brea, premiering tonight, leans heavily into the sci-fi, while also indulging in a wallop of disaster drama. When an enormous sinkhole suddenly opens up in Los Angeles, hundreds of people fall into an unexplainable primeval world.

Expect a raft of predictable dialogue as the Harris family are separated and must find a way to be reunited. Fortuitously, Gavin (Eoin Macken) discovers the apparitions that have haunted him for yonks might hold the key to bringing his family home.

The Absolutely Fabulous star charts Australian-born conservationist Sacha Dench’s (pictured, right, with Lumley) quest to raise awareness about climate change in this wholesome doco.

Dench got her nickname after following a flock of swans on their three-month migration journey. Here, she uses the same method of transportation – a battery powered hang-glider called a paramotor – to journey along the British coast, while Lumley follows on land, and they meet folk making a difference.

Fresh COVID-19 campaign has been launched by state government THE state government has launched a new campaign targeted at those with mild COVID19 symptoms.

Victorians who contract COVID-19 and find their symptoms are mild are being encouraged to recover at home, using measures such as rest, hydration and pain relief through the Get the Right Help for Your Recovery campaign.

More than 550,000 cases of COVID have been diagnosed across the state since January 1.

However, only 0.71 per cent have required hospital care.

The campaign will appear on TV, radio, digital, social, print and outdoor media, and will be translated into 41 languages.

It will also serve as a way to ensure Triple Zero calls are reserved for emergencies, so that hospitals are used for the most unwell patients.

Those who experience more severe symptoms, will be instructed what to do through the campaign - such as speaking to their GP, pharmacist or the National Coronavirus Hotline.

Currently, Victorians are being supported through their diagnosis with the COVID Positive Program.

A total of 545,000 people have been helped by the program since October 2021.

Health Minister Martin Foley said the campaign will help people received the most appropriate care and instruct them on what to do if they do start to experience severe symptoms.

“For most Victorians who catch COVID, what they’ll need is a few days of rest and some pain relief – not an ambulance or an ED,” he said.

“Our COVID Positive Pathways program has already helped thousands of Victorians recover safely at home – easing the pressure on our busy health system.”

Book your youngster an eye test

By ALYSSA FRITZLAFF

LATROBE Valley optometrists are calling for parents to book an eye test during this early part of the school year.

Following the events of the last 12 months, optometrists are harbouring concerns about digital eyestrain caused by an increase in screen time.

Fresh research by Specsavers has indicated that, in comparison to last year, concern around children’s screen time has risen by 10 per cent.

Additionally, 86 per cent of parents expressed concern about the long-term effects of their child’s screen time.

According to Specsavers, the average child spends three hours on screens each day - triple what is recommended by the World Health Organisation.

“When kids are on phones and computers, it adds a significant demand on close vision, which can cause digital eye strain. Staring at screens and being indoors for extended periods of time has been shown to increase the risk of myopia or becoming short-sighted,” Traralgon Specsavers optometrist Josie Mills said.

“The eyes are designed for looking in the distance, not close up for long periods of time ... in susceptible children, when they do look close up for long periods of time sometimes that can cause their eye to change sizes and to become short sighted.

“If your child complains about headaches, blurred vision, trouble focusing or any other issues with their eyes, I recommend booking an appointment with an optometrist straight away rather than waiting until their next check-up.”

Other indicators may be things such as frequently rubbing of the eyes, squinting, changes in the way they look at screens or books, and having too look at things really closely.

Ms Mills explained that having poor eyesight can impact children’s engagement and enjoyment at school.

“If they’re not seeing the work on the board, in their books and on screens, it can really interrupt their concentration ... if they start getting headaches then it can make them feel unwell and they might not want to be at school. So it will disengage them from their learning somewhat,” she said.

Ms Mills’ top tips for children’s screen time: 1) Remind your child to blink. This keeps the surface of your eyes from drying out.

2) Keep a bottle of water close-by. Your eyes dry out when you’re dehydrated so making sure your

Health: Optometrist Josie Mills asks parents to book their kids in for an eye test. photograph supplied child is drinking plenty of water throughout the day is important.

3) Follow the 20-20-20 rule. This means, every 20 minutes remind your child to shift their eyes to look at an object at least 20 metres away, for at least 20 seconds. The easiest way to do this is to take small ‘window’ breaks and look out at a faraway object to give their eyes a break from their screen.

4) Make sure that during the school week, your children spend time playing outside or stepping

away from the screen to do another activity to give their eyes a break.

It is recommended that children of all ages have an eye test every two years for a general check-up, unless otherwise directed by an optometrist.

Vic Kids Eat Well program makes impact in community A NEW movement is aiming to transform food and drink options in schools and community organisation across Victoria.

Vic Kids Eat Well will be delivered by Cancer Council Victoria’s Achievement Program, and is supported by the state government.

It aims to support organisation to take simple, achievable steps such as ditching sugary drinks, boosting health food options in canteens and removing unhealthy marketing.

Statistic’s cited by the Cancer Council found that as much as 41 per cent of children’s diets come from highly process food, and over 77 per cent of secondary schools still sell sugary drinks.

“We all want our kids to attend school, play sport and attend their local community centre free from unhealthy food and sugary drinks,” Cancer Council Victoria chief executive officer Todd Harper said.

“Vic Kids Eat Well is supporting schools and other community organisations to make healthier food and drink options front and centre in their canteens, kiosks and vending machines.”

Gippsland MP encouraging the public to donate blood FEDERAL Member for Gippsland Darren Chester is encouraging Gippslanders to roll up their sleeves and donate blood or plasma.

Mr Chester said that 1.6 million Australians had given blood in the last year, but more donors were needed.

“Throughout my life I have been fortunate enough to not need a blood transfusion, but I know many people who have and will need to in the future,” Mr Chester said.

“COVID restrictions have made it difficult to donate so now is the time to book an appointment and help out our blood banks.

“Donations can be made at the Australian Red Cross Lifeblood Donor Centre in Traralgon or the mobile bus which travels throughout the region.

“To make an appointment visit https://www. lifeblood.com.au/blood or call 13 14 95.”

27/12/1944 - 19/1/2022.

Dad, Heaven called upon a gentleman and they chose you. The night you left us, a piece of our hearts went with you. It hasn't sunk in that you have gone forever. I know you will always watch over us, but it's not the same as your visits and seeing Willow and Shae run out the door as soon as they see your car coming up the road, so they could greet their Poppy. Shaz loved you like a father and she to will miss you dearly, she always loved spending time with you. I will miss our chats, laughter, your input on my home projects and I will certainly miss our cold beers and quality time together in the shed. You meant the world to us and our memories of you will always be cherished forever.

Rest in peace now Dad Love always, Steve, Shaz, Willow, Shae and Trig.

DI CIERO, Domenico.

16/6/1935 - 27/1/2022 Passed away peacefully at Latrobe Regional Hospital on Thursday, 27 January 2022.

Aged 86 years Beloved husband of Michela for 68 years.

Adored father and fatherin-law of Giovanni and Gina, Pierina and Anthony.

Cherished Nonno to Domenico, Michele, Daniele, Alessio and Nicholas.

With tears we watched you suffer, and watched you fade away, With courage and concern for others, you fought so hard to stay, But God saw that you were weary, and did what He thought best, He gently took you in His arms, and whispered come and rest.

We all love you Papa May you rest in God's care. Michelina X. Papa, after many years together, it is with a heavy heart that we need to say our goodbyes. You will always be in our hearts and minds, never forgotten.

With all our love, Giovanni, Gina, Domenico, Michele and Daniele.

My beautiful Papa, you tried so hard to stay with us. You couldn't go on anymore. Your concern was always for us, before yourself. I couldn't wish for a more generous and loving father. I will miss you coming up the driveway in your Ute; it was my signal to put the coffee on.

You were always so happy when we were together. I hope you can rest now, your work is done and you are in the company of your beloved parents, brothers and so many friends. I will love you forever. Pierina X. You were a wonderful father-in-law. You did so much for our family. We shared so many good times and I will miss you.

Rest In Peace Dom Anthony X. You were the most wonderful Nonno. Always loved, forever missed. We hope we can make you proud.

Alessio and Nicholas XX.

DiFABRIZIO, 'Vale' Donato (Don) OAM. Patron and Life Member of Falcons 2000 Soccer Club Incorporated.

Last week our Club lost a man that was the catalyst for everything we enjoy today, whether it be our venue or the pride and joy that comes with being part of a Club and a family that has a history like no other in regional Victorian football.

Don, you were many things to our Club; President, Patron, Life Member, a Leader, a Giver and a Visionary.

But most importantly you had love for our Club, your Club, that meant so much to you.

Quite simply, our great Club wouldn't be where it is today, nor would it have arguably the most storied history of any sporting club in country Victoria.

Even up to last year, you would attend games where you could, always vocal and proud of the young boys and girls that shared the love of the Club where it matters most, on the pitch. Every time a Falcons player, member or supporter see our main grandstand, nostalgic photos and videos of when we were in the National Soccer League and the many trophies being held aloft by players past and present, they will do so in the knowledge that if it wasn't for you, we wouldn't have had those life changing experiences.

From everyone including the past players to the current ones and supporters and members both near and far, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts.

Rest In Peace Don, may you continue to support us from above. We know you will be watching.

CBL final four is decided BASKETBALL CBL

By LIAM DURKIN

THE final four of the Country Basketball League was decided last Sunday, as the last round of the regular season concluded.

A pair of Latrobe Valley teams qualified for finals, along with Maffra and Warragul, who claimed the minor premiership and will go into the playoffs boasting an unblemished 10-win, zero-loss record.

Moe secured its finals berth with a commanding 78 to 53 win on the road over Korumburra. Heading into the Saturday match needing to win to sew up a position inside the top four, the Meteors never gave their opponents a look-in, shooting an incredible 29 points to seven in the first quarter.

The home side never recovered from the opening term blitzing, and could only watch as their season drifted further and further away.

Simon Vannapraseuth led the scoring with 14 points for Moe, closely followed by Stephen O’Brien who netted 13.

Moe then ventured to Cameron Sporting Complex to take on Maffra on Sunday.

With both teams safe in finals, they faced the dilemma of wanting to win to get a mental edge but also not playing with absolute intensity to avoid the risk of getting injured.

In the finish, Maffra won 103 to 90, with a big final term effort of 33 points doing what was required.

Rohan Demczuk had 19 points and O’Brien 18 for Moe. Ben Van Dyk was also productive with 17, as was Josh Pearce with 16.

TRARALGON was too strong for Churchill last Sunday, winning 78 to 57.

The visiting T-Birds used the match as finals practise after establishing a 21 to seven lead at quarter time.

The Blue Devils competed well after quarter time, scoring 50 points to Traralgon’s 57 for the

rest of the match. Jordan Canovan did the bulk of the scoring for Churchill, shooting 25 points.

Christian D’Angelo shot the same number for the T-Birds.

The Blue Devils ended the season in sixth position with a four-win, six-loss record telling the story of what might have been.

IN OTHER games, Maffra poleaxed Lakes Entrance on Saturday, winning 101 to 58 on the Pelicans home court.

It didn’t get any easier for Lakes Entrance, who had to drive to Warragul the next day to take on the undefeated Warriors.

The Pelicans promptly lost 97 to 48 to ensure it collected the wooden spoon after a dismal campaign saw it unable to win a game from 10 starts.

Wonthaggi and Sale each had the bye, and ended the season in seventh and eighth respectively with two wins each.

IN THE women’s, the last finals spot came down to percentage between Moe and Maffra.

The teams each ended the regular season with five-wins and five-losses, but the Meteors were able to scrap into fourth by just 4.51 per cent.

The result means Moe will face traditional rivals Traralgon in a hotly contested semi-final this weekend.

Moe was forced to sweat on its chances of playing finals last weekend, after it was unable to topple second placed Korumburra away from home on Saturday.

The Meteors started promisingly, leading 11-8 at quarter time, before the Wildcats put the foot down and slammed on 43 points to 24 in the next two quarters on their way to a 61-44 victory.

Caitlin Demczuk shot 17 points to be the leading light for Moe. Needing to win and by some margin the next day against bottom-placed Lakes Entrance, who had come off a 77-44 drubbing at home against Maffra the day before, the Meteors thumped through 75 points to 32 in a rout at Moe/Newborough Leisure Centre.

Top scorers for Moe were Caitlin Prestidge (18), Demczuk (17), Danielle Davies (17) and Carly Wood (15).

The Meteors had little time to celebrate their dominant performance, as over at the Cameron Sporting Complex, fifth-placed Maffra was doing the unthinkable and trouncing top side Traralgon.

The Eagles ended up winning 73-37, which meant the calculators needed to come out to crunch the numbers to determine who out of Moe and Maffra would be playing finals.

Moe players and officials were eventually able to breathe a sigh of relief, as their fate was sealed when word came through they had definitely done enough to qualify.

Wonthaggi and Sale each had the bye. The Coasters finished third and will continue their season this weekend, while the Sonics will look to next season after running sixth.

WNBL here on Sunday Busy week for the Harriers BASKETBALL WNBL

ELITE basketball is set to keep rolling into Traralgon, with the Women’s National Basketball League confirming the Melbourne Boomers will be playing the Perth Lynx at the Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports Stadium on Sunday.

A WNBL double-header featuring the Boomers, Lynx, Canberra Capitals and Sydney Uni Flames was originally scheduled for Saturday, January 8, but had to be postponed due to COVID protocols.

Traralgon basketball product Jade Melbourne was expected to play for Canberra on her home court.

While the Flames and Capitals won’t be making the trip down, locals will still be treated to basketball of a high calibre, as the Boomers and Lynx are both currently inside the top four on the WNBL standings.

The Boomers have formed a visible presence in the region over the past few years, delivering events and community programs in partnership with the Latrobe Valley Authority and state government.

The WNBL will complement the Country Basketball League finals happening throughout the day, making for a full extravaganza at the GRISS. The Traralgon T-Birds men’s team will be locked in a semi-final battle, as will the T-Birds women’s side who are up against the Moe Meteors.

Those who purchased tickets for the previously cancelled WNBL game will be honoured now that the games have been rescheduled.

More information from Ticketek will be emailed to ticket holders.

ATHLETICS TRARALGON HARRIERS

FOR many of the 44 Harriers who enjoyed the fresher conditions last Thursday it was the first time they had faced the challenge of the 5km-plus Scales Road course.

Course marker Andrew Legge said, “For some older members, Scales Road brought back both good and bad memories. The scenery is striking, but the last long steep climb to the finish line is energy sapping”.

Fastest finisher was ageless veteran Ian Cornthwaite, ahead of Andrew Greenhill who shaded Shane Gavin at the finish by five seconds.

Quickest women were Yani Cornthwaite, refreshed after her 28km Two Bays trail run ten days earlier, followed by ultramarathon runner Zoe Kirkman and Tanjil South’s Carly Korab.

Four Peaks – Bright Alpine Climb A number of Harriers and other local runners recently joined a large field to run the multi-day Bright Four Peaks events to the top of - not one but – four mountains in the Victorian Alps region.

On four consecutive days, beginning last Thursday, many keen mountain runners tackled, in order, a climb to the summits of Mt Buffalo, Mt Feathertop, Mt Hotham and Mystic Mountain. Some keen participants planned to run all four, while for various reasons others choose to do one, two or three days.

On Day 2, competitors finished at Federation Hut below the Mt Feathertop summit because of poor weather conditions.

Tomorrow’s 5km Harriers’ event (February 3) is on the Traralgon-Morwell walking path, starting from alongside the Latrobe Regional Hospital car park in Village Avenue, with staggered starts from 5.50pm.

Eagles soar to win against Sharks CRICKET LVDCL

BY LIAM DURKIN

ROUND 10 results of the Latrobe Valley and District Cricket League proved the race to this season’s premiership is still wide open.

Results from the weekend meant winners did a favour for not only themselves but for a number of other teams, which keeps alive any number of possibilities in the weeks ahead before there is a clearer picture of just who will take up the four finals spots on offer in either the Premier A or A Grade division.

TRARALGON West could be daring to dream after a heart stopping victory over traditional powerhouse Latrobe on their home deck.

In what may well be the Eagles most memorable victory in recent history, the visitors defeated the Sharks via Duckworth-Lewis-Stern method surviving a couple of near death experiences toward the end.

Before that though, everything Traralgon West touched turned to gold after winning the toss and electing to bowl.

Wickets tumbled at Peter Siddle Oval, as virtually every chance created by the Eagles took the edge and nestled into the hands of gleefully awaiting fielders.

With the scoreboard reading 5/35, one can only imagine Latrobe players were thinking “gee we’re in a bit of trouble here”. There was surely no doubting what they were thinking when it got to 8/42.

Sharks heart and soul wicket keeper Adam Duncan put up admirable resistance at number nine, batting for two hours in a stoic hand of 34 not out.

The veteran partnered with youngster Izayah Terrick, who himself saw out 58 balls in helping Duncan get the team to something of a competitive total.

Duncan and Terrick put on 39 for the ninth wicket, and then another 36-run partnership between Duncan and Tyron Gamage meant Traralgon West had a tricky 117 to chase.

The Eagles bowlers could hardly be faulted, and all chipped in with wickets.

Salman Rasool, Tim Fitch, Hayden Kimpton and Ben Edebohls each took two in a great display of partnership bowling.

Persistent rain at the innings break meant the calculators came out to determine the required total needed for Traralgon West to win under DLS. A target of 59 runs in 30 overs was established.

Although this seemed relatively straightforward for Traralgon West, it needed to be cautious of the number of wickets it lost, as under DLS, the loss of too many wickets would hand Latrobe victory even if the Eagles got the required runs.

The stage was therefore set for a grand stand finish.

In an attempt to go for quick runs, Traralgon West sent attacking players Ihraam Zafar and Hayden Kimpton out to open.

The Eagles best laid plans backfired when Kimpton was caught by Duncan and Zafar was trapped leg before by Jamie Brierley within four balls of each other early in the piece.

By the ninth over Latrobe captain Benn Zomer saw the back of his opposite number Rob Wilkie and Traralgon West was 3/17.

Fitch and Josh Monacella then got together, and set about stabilising the situation.

Monacella batted over two hours, while Fitch batted close to three as the pair took the chase right to the death.

Not only did the pair have to bat under the duress of time, they also had to do it knowing that just one wicket could have been enough to tip the scales back in Latrobe’s favour - possibly enough for a win.

Fitch was able to score the winning run in the last over, completing the job in a partnership of 47 with Monacella.

While numerically Fitch’s score might have only been 22 not out, in the context of the match it may well have been the equivalent of a century, and could be rated by the man himself as highly as any other time he has made a big score.

CENTRALS had an equally nerve-killing win against Mirboo North.

The Lions took the points for the win, but needed to rely on a man who hadn’t scored a run this season before last Saturday to get them over the line.

Electing to bowl first at McGregor Reserve, Yallourn North, Centrals struck at semi-regular intervals to see the Tigers bowled out for 141.

Opening batsman Zach Hollis did the bulk of the scoring, making 61, with his knock featuring seven fours.

South African spinner Reghard Hefer tore through the Mirboo North top order, taking 4/18.

Tye Hourigan and Corey Pollard also helped the cause, nabbing 3/13 and 2/30 respectively.

Centrals looked in control after a steady start, and had no reason to panic at 3/86.

However, Mirboo North refused to go away, and a few wickets against the run of play all of a sudden had the game delicately poised at 5/104 after the dismissal of Sam Gray for 25.

From there, Centrals slipped to 8/116, and the Tigers, with their tails up, had the match there for the taking.

Trafalgar Innings

Tweak: CATS spinner Harry Cooper approaches the bowling crease, as Trafalgar captain Rhys Holdsworth backs up. Amazingly, Cooper is one of a rare type that bowls left handed and throws right handed. photograph liam durkin

Another wicket left the situation 9/133, meaning Centrals needed nine to win with number 10 Bohdi Bright and the ultimate number 11 Marc Fenech at the crease.

Fenech, who hadn’t scored a run in three attempts so far this season, held the fate of the Lions hopes in his hands.

The left arm bowler was able to open his account courtesy of a free hit, which he struck for two, and followed by another double to see out the 41st over.

Nerves were evident from the Mirboo North players as well, with three no balls and one wide tallied while Fenech and Bright were at the crease.

As they say, every tail-ender has at least one match winning innings in them, and on this day,

Page 40 — The Latrobe Valley Express, Wednesday, 2 February, 2022

Bright was able to scamper the required run in the 43rd over, netting a huge sigh of relief from all wearing the Lions colours.

Hudson Kerr took 3/19 for Mirboo North, while Will Lawrey (2/22) and Jesse Giardina (2/40) also featured in the wickets.

IT was a Maynard Masterclass at Ted Summerton Reserve, as Raiders skipper Liam Maynard virtually single-handedly saw his side to victory over Moe with a sublime unbeaten century.

The need for an innings of such substance appeared light years away when Moe sank to 5/26, as Raiders went to town on the Lions top order.

Young quick Harry McColl continued his amazing knack of getting wickets, grabbing three of the first four poles to fall, taking his season aggregate to 20.

With Raiders dominating, and Moe 6/49, the Lions needed a saviour, and found one in Sean Spiteri, who came to the crease at number seven - a spot made famous by Adam Gilchrist.

Spiteri proceeded to produce a Gilchrist-like innings, torching 93 not out from 89 balls, with seven fours and two sixes.

A purist in the truest sense, the left hander with an ‘easy on the eye’ technique combined with Ash Savige, who contributed a fine 56 not out, to take Moe to 6/203 at compulsory close.

Having let the Lions off the hook, and having going for 62 off 10 overs himself, Maynard put all that behind him, and in a show of true leadership, went out to open the batting in pursuit of victory.

Taking on the new ball with Chris Stanlake, the pair put on 42 before Stanlake was dismissed for 28.

Joining Maynard at first drop was Mick Higgins (44), who batted with the skipper in a 129-run partnership.

Maynard continued on, and fittingly, made it a double celebration as he brought up his century at the same time the winning runs were hit.

In the wash-up, Maynard ended on 101 not out from 140 balls, with 11 fours, to see Raiders win by eight wickets.

Clinton Taylor was the most successful bowler for Moe, and ended with figures of 2/42.

CHURCHILL made short work of Jeeralang-Boolarra.

The Cobras batted first after being sent in, and compiled 136 on the Yinnar turf.

Traralgon West 84 (S Kosterman 26, G Franklin 20, C Whitehead 3/12, B Williamson 3/14) lost to Centrals 4/88.

Brendan Mason top scored with 33 from 42 balls, while a few other players got starts.

All bowlers for the Panthers took a wicket. Stan Urbanic led the effort, taking 3/27, while Hasitha Hewawasam (2/15) and Ossy Brennan (2/36) also had success.

The bowling side of the scorebook is where the joy ended for Jeeralang-Boolarra, as the batting innings turned into an absolute train wreck.

Chris Williams had the ball on a string for the Cobras, and took the first five wickets to see the scoreboard reading 5/32.

The Panthers never recovered from there, and things only got worse as Churchill wiped out the tail.

Williams ended with 5/13, Ijaz Ahmad 3/6 and Steve Warr 2/16 to see all 10 wickets fall with Jeeralang-Boolarra only able to muster up 54.

Churchill has secured a bonus point in all seven games it has won so far this season, the result of which has meant it has gone to the top of the ladder.

CATS and Trafalgar was the only match that didn’t see a winner.

Slippery conditions pushed the start time back one hour at John Black Oval, before play got underway with the Ships electing to have a hit in a match reduced to 41 overs-a-side.

Aiden George and Rhys Holdsworth negotiated a tricky period from the six to 12 over mark as the effects of the roller started to wear off and CATS new ball operators Tinashe Panyangara and Cal Stewart had the ball darting in all directions.

George played a busy hand of 76, with his innings featuring three sixes.

On a day of firsts, Aydan Connolly nailed his maiden career six with a lofted drive over mid-off, as he made 32 from 45 deliveries.

Amazingly, the maximum was the only boundary he hit in his innings.

Trafalgar closed at 5/144, before showers came at afternoon tea, forcing the covers to be placed on the strip.

With rain continuing to fall, players were forced to play the waiting game until the drizzle completely stopped. Unfortunately that time never came, and the decision was ultimately made to split the points and call it a draw.

MORWELL had the bye.

Yarram & District Innings

Tigers tuck into Pelicans CRICKET TDCA

WILD weather threatened the TDCA on the Friday night leading into round 10, but due to all club curators and volunteers being well prepared all matches were able to start on time.

Gormandale v Yarram & District THE match of the round was Gormandale and Yarram & District who were sitting in fifth and fourth on the ladder leading into Round 10 which meant it was a must win clash for both sides if they wanted to firm up a spot in the top fpur.

The toss didn’t go ahead as seems to be tradition between these two teams as Gormandale’s skipper Luke Henderson declared his intention to bat first while Yarram & District’s captain Ant Scott indicated he was going to bowl so it was decided then and there.

It looked to be good decision for Yarram early as Gormandale quickly lost wickets with conditions suiting bowlers early.

At 4/25, the Tigers were wobbling but the sun managed to poke its head out from behind the clouds just enough to settle the wicket down and stop the ball from swinging.

The fightback was on from then as James Jacobsen and Dylan Freitag put on a 54-run partnership before Jacobsen was out for 30.

Dylan Freitag was able to keep the score ticking over until Jarryd Swift caught his edge falling three runs short of a half century.

Adam Brady then steered the ship home making 15 important lower order runs which got the score up to 169 after 50 overs.

Jarryd Swift was devastating with the new ball as he took 4/35, Griffin Underwood and Korey Carrison both claimed two wickets each.

Yarram came out firing as they do but the wickets started to fall as well.

In a flurry of big shots Yarram found themselves in trouble with star batsmen Anthony Scott and Dylan Rash back in the sheds with the score on 38.

It didn’t improve much from there as the Pelicans batsmen continued to play their shots and soon the wickets were tumbling due to a Brady bowling masterclass on a wicket that perfectly suited him.

Only four Yarram batsmen were able to make double figures as the team was bowled out for 83 in just 20 overs.

Brady was the destroyer taking 5/7 while Nicholas Scammell was the next best taking 3/36.

This is the first time Gormandale has beaten Yarram in a limited overs match and with that monkey off the back Gormandale now have their destiny in their own hands coming into a potential finals berth.

Toongabbie v Imperials AFTER the last match-up between these two clubs the Toongabbie and Imperials game didn’t disappoint as Toongabbie took the points in another close match.

Batting first Imperials took an opportunity to get a good opening partnership together with Keenan Hughes unavailable for the game.

Ryan Morley and Brad Sizeland put on a very good partnership of 74 before Morley was dismissed on 42.

Imperials then had the foundation required to get a good score and had solid contributors throughout the rest of their innings as Sizeland (35), Shaun Boyes (24) and Tuan Abdeen (21) all got important scores to take the score up to 7/166 after 50 overs.

Tom Shippen was the pick of the bowlers claiming 3/34 with the other wickets being shared around.

A frustrating misty rain then descended on Toongabbie with a couple delays early in Toongabbie’s innings causing some issues.

Overs were lost and a revised target under Duckworth Lewis was set with both teams in the hunt for the win.

Shippen opening in the innings set the tone making a run a ball 50, putting on a 60-run partnership with Rob Wheildon who made 22 himself.

Gerard McIlroy and Kev Stoddart then got

the Rams home winning by five wickets under Duckworth Lewis method.

Ross Williams, who has made the ball sing this season took another three wicket haul to now find himself clear on top of the bowling aggregate for the league.

This win was crucial for the Rams as it now gives them a good buffer between themselves at three to Gormandale in fourth spot.

Rovers v Ex Students AT Duncan Cameron Park Ex Students lost the toss and were sent in by Rovers which proved to be costly.

The Sharks got to work and were 90 when they lost their first wicket.

It wasn’t until the score was on 189 when the second wicket fell as Lee Stockdale showed his class, raising the bat for a well compiled 121 from 160 balls.

Stockdale was the last wicket to fall going for quick runs at the end of the innings, having only hit one boundary in his first 50, he ended up with three sixes and seven fours in his 121 which is the third A Grade hundred for the season.

Matt Dyke (35) and Rick Battista (29) both batted well as Ex Students finished 3/229 and were in a commanding position.

Rovers stumbled early and were in big trouble at 3/5 which had them behind the pace.

Dougal Williams as he has done for the entire season then came in and batted well before rain ruined his chance to get a good score as he finished unbeaten on 34 when the game was called off.

With 21 overs bowled it meant that due to Duckworth Lewis, Ex Students won the match as Rovers needed to be 106 with four wickets down at that stage of the game.

This win sends Ex Students back to the top of the ladder and in a very good position for the rest of the season.

Rovers now need to bounce back quickly if they are to give themselves a chance at finals this season.

Important Round 11 of TDCA action CRICKET ROUND 11

By TYRON BRAMWELL

by the batting of Ryan Morley for Imperials, and Leading wicket takers, Ross Williams, and Brad Sizeland who are both also followed

by Yarram’s Jarryd Swift.

Imperials v Yarram & District

One to watch: Ross Williams is on fire with the ball at the moment and will be sure to take a handful of wickets.

Prediction: This match is too close to call and could go either way.

THIS will be a game to keep a close eye on this weekend, as Yarram went down to Gormandale last round, getting bowled out for 83.

Imperials, last time they played Gormandale, won comfortably.

So, in hindsight, if you go based off that, Imperials should knock off Yarram.

However, Yarram have the fire power, and determination to bat long periods of time, and post big scores.

Thanks to the likes of Yarram batters, Daniel O’Keefe, Jarryd Swift and Anthony Scott, who can hit a very long ball.

However, this will be challenged

Rovers v Glengarry THIS will be another close match against the rival clubs, as Rovers know they can bowl Glengarry out for a low score and chase it down comfortably.

Nathan Freitag will be sure to trouble Rovers batting, alongside Cam Graham, with their experience in fast bowling, and accuracy to hit the spot every ball.

But the likes of class batter Simon Duff for Rovers will be up for the fight and is sure to show some of the younger players how it’s done.

Rovers bowlers will need to get Freitag out early if they want to have a chance at winning the game.

As he leads the run scoring for Glengarry and is in good form at the moment.

The likes of Rovers leading wickettakers Duff and Dougal Williams, will be looking to keep the star batsman quiet and ensure that he does not make a big score.

One to watch: Simon Duff, on his home wicket with the ball turning square, will be sure to take a handful of wickets.

Prediction: Rovers need to win this game to still have hope for finals. So this is a must win for Rovers, so they will be motivated and will take home the win on their home ground.

Ex Students v Toongabbie LAST time these two matched up against each other, Ex Students took home a nine-wicket win against Toongabbie.

But this will be a good challenge for left-arm orthodox Matt Barry, from Toongabbie, to show the quality side of Ex Students what he has.

However, Ex Students are more than happy to face him, as they are comfortable around spin, facing Lee Stockdale, Michael Warne and Jimmy Pryde in the nets every week at training.

So, it should be a walk in the park for the Students batting line-up.

Toongabbie will really need to lift their batting, as only five of their players have scored more than 100 runs this season, with the highest being Kev Stoddart at 146 runs.

One to watch: Spinner Matt Barry, will be one to keep an eye on, as he gives the ball good airtime, and gets it above the eyeline of the batter making it hard to get away.

Prediction: Ex Students will walk away with the win.

Queenslander takes out Pro-Am title GOLF

By LIAM DURKIN

THE Latrobe City WIN Television Traralgon Pro-Am Classic delivered another two days of high quality golf.

Despite heavy rain ending the tournament prematurely last Friday, the event saw more than 70 professional golfers take to the fairways of the Traralgon Golf Club for one of the most prestigious Pro-Am’s in regional Victoria.

Brisbane’s Tim Hart won the Pro-Am after shooting nine-under par 63 on day one.

Hart was level with Blake Collyer at 12-under when play was suspended, but with lightning strikes and some holes under water, the siren was sounded and the second round abandoned with Hart declared the winner.

The Queenslander nailed nine birdies in the opening round to go one clear of Collyer.

Hart began Friday with three straight birdies, while Collyer had to make do with taking outright second after shooting eight under 64 the previous day.

Having been to Traralgon a number of times, Hart said it was gratifying to finally get his hands on the trophy.

“Over the years I’ve played well here but never managed to get the win so it’s finally good to,” he said.

“I always love coming back here to Traralgon and just good memories, good to come back to a course I’m familiar with.”

Hart said he felt he was in a good headspace for the tournament.

“I think my mentality the last few days, I’ve been getting a bit upset over the last few weeks with my golf so I just tried to stay calm g and take each shot as it came and I managed to doo that very well,” he said.

“I managed to keep the mistakes off the d, no bogeys for both rounds, it was nice card, just to have no mistakes.

“It was tight, there was a few guys playing well so it was good to keep in my own game and just play well. behin nd me were going to “I knew the boys behind p making birdies so I had to keep making keep ies of my y own.” birdies art pocketed $25,000 0 for winning the Hart Am, and continued his h recent run Pro-Am, ood form after makin ng the cut at the of good making tralian PGA and Qu eensland PGA Australian Queensland mpionships.

“The field was absolutely awesome, a lot of players such as Marcus (former European Tour player Marcus Fraser) have been back year after year so it is really good that they actually come along and support the club in this way and they are bringing some of these young guys through as well.

“It is good to see some of the ladies playing as well, we really want to develop that even more and maybe look at developing the junior side of things as well.

“All the players, professionals, amateurs, sponsors and everyone else that turned up they were absolutely rapt in relation to how the course was presented, it is just a great event to be involved in.

“Unfortunately the weather played havoc and we had to suspend play and then cancel play after nine holes of the final round, which is really unfortunate because the course is in the best condition we’ve ever seen, but there is not much we can do, it is an outdoor sport and that is the hazards that we have to put up with.

“We had to call it because there was lightning coming through and in the interest of safety for players we didn’t want anyone out there getting hurt, as it happened, just as we got everyone back into the clubhouse we had a couple of lightning strikes on the course, so the right decision was made.

“The work that the committee does starts 12 months out, so after this event we’ll take a break for a week or so and then we’ll be back into it.”

As for this writer, he was told he needs to open up his front foot more in order to hit the ball cleaner by the time the next Latrobe City WIN Television Traralgon Pro-Am Classic rolls around.

Team Gelagotis sets sights on Blue Diamond with dazzling filly HORSE RACING

MOE’S Team Gelagotis has a genuine contender for Victoria’s premier two-year-old race, the Blue Diamond.

She is Miss Roseiano, who made a winning debut to secure the Group 3 Blue Diamond Preview (1000m) for fillies on debut at Caulfield on Australia Day. The Peter Gelagotis-trained daughter of Exceed And Excel ($14) led all the way to defeat Written Swoosh ($12) by a half-length.

Miss Roseiano stopped the clock in 57.17 seconds, more than half a second quicker than Daumier, the winner of the Colts and Geldings preview clocked 30 minutes earlier.

In doing so, Miss Roseiano not only recouped her price purchase of $300,000 at the Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale, but comfortably added to that value and staked her claim as a major contender for the Group 1 Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m).

“That was unbelievable,” Manny Gelagotis, who selected and purchased the filly as a yearling, said post-race.

“She’s had one trial and I know it’s easy to say after the race, but the last month has been really difficult with her because – we’ve had a lot of good horses and this one is out of the box.

“This horse has shown exceptional talent and I am very pleased she transformed that to the racetrack today.”

Manny Gelagotis said the filly had trialled well, but it was not enough to attract one of the state’s big name jockeys.

Instead, Jordan Childs, who is building up a good association with the Gelagotis stable, made the trek

to the Latrobe Valley to ride Miss Roseiano in her work ahead of the debut appearance.

“Manny gave me a call last week and said he’s got a really nice two-year-old and would I go down to Moe,” he said.

“So I jumped in the car on Saturday morning and galloped the horse, and she’s very nice. She’s got a lot of improvement in her and is a very professional type, so it was worth it.”

Miss Roseiano’s price firmed from $34 into $8, making her the second favourite behind top elect Jacquinot for the Blue Diamond on February 26.

2018 winner Poke The Bear. His sons Luke and Ben were on hand to accept the trophy, with the win also carrying with it a $47,000 first prize.

Traralgon Greyhound Racing Club president Don Haley said the historic meeting had been a great night for the club.

“It is absolutely fantastic, it has been a great night, we’ve had a few meetings leading up to this but our first cup on the new track and so far everything has gone well,” he said.

“We had a terrific cup race tonight, eight of the best dogs in Victoria, the best sprinters, one of the best dogs in Victoria winning it, you have to be happy with that.

“All in all a fantastic night, everyone likes the venue, the racing is safe which is what this track was designed to be, so couldn’t be more thrilled.

“We need to thank Greyhound Racing Victoria who backed this, University of Technology in Sydney who designed the track, a lot of science went into the design, everything was done with safety in mind. I have to thank the Traralgon

Greyhound Club committee, we haven’t raced for three years, it is a long time to be out of business, but we still retained the interest.

“I’d also like to thank our track staff, everyone who works at the club, we employ a lot of people - it is pretty exciting for the club.”

Haley said the club was eager to make up for lost time.

“The more the merrier. We’ve been out of business for so long, we want to race as often as we can,” he said.

“At the moment Cranbourne is closed so we are certainly looking at two meetings a week to go to three meetings a week on a fairly regular basis, that is yet to be determined but we can handle three meetings a week.

“Greyhound racing has been in Traralgon about 46 years now, this is the third track in that time, there was greyhound racing in Traralgon even before that, not many people alive will remember they use to race up at Park Lane, so it is steeped in history.”

IT WAS a history-making night at the Traralgon Greyhound Racing Club last week, as the club officially heralded the start of new era in greyhound racing.

Traralgon can now lay claim to having a worldfirst, with the specially designed ‘J Curve’ track at Glenview Park up and running.

The one-turn track has been designed with animal welfare and safety front of mind, and aids injury prevention in competing greyhounds.

Appropriately, the first major meeting on the new track took place on Traralgon Cup night, which gave onlookers a chance to see how the track fared hosting some of the best greyhounds in the state.

The SENTrack Group 2 Traralgon Cup meeting netted a huge crowning glory for all who had worked hard behind the scenes in seeing that greyhound racing returned to the Latrobe Valley after a more than three-year hiatus.

Greyhound Racing Victoria put on a tremendous show for the opening, with guests treated to scrumptious hospitality while a large outdoor area and superb lighting offered premium viewing of the new track for all to see.

Of note among facilities at the new track is an underground passage for dogs and trainers to make their way to the starting gates, as well as a giant television screen, which could well be large enough to double as a drive-in theatre.

With the Traralgon Cup held on Australia Day, those in attendance made their way trackside to take part in a smoking ceremony led by Koori elder Uncle Lloyd Hood and Gunaikurnai Land and Waters Aboriginal Corporation chairperson Grattan Mullett before the first race.

The feature race, the SENTrack Traralgon Cup was won by Pearcedale speed machine Typhoon Sammy, who stormed its way to the lead on the bend and then staved off fast finishing challenges from Paua Of Janie and Hill Top Jonah.

The favourite ($2.90) won by just over a length from box seven to maintain its amazing record of 23 wins from 34 starts.

Fittingly, there was a Traralgon connection to the win, as trainer Jason Thompson spent most of his teenage years growing up in the town.

The Thompsons have quite an affinity with the Traralgon Cup. Jason won the event 28 years ago with Light Of Fire, and his wife Seona trained
