Traralgon Vineyard owner Leon Hammond decided to remain closed despite lockdown lifting in regional Victoria, saying the current patron capacity limits made it unviable for him to open.

NOT HAPPY, DAN

By TOM GANNON

MANY hospitality businesses across the Latrobe Valley have made the decision to remain closed as a result of the state government’s new dining restrictions which they say are ‘not viable’. Local businesses owners say the new rule change which allows for only 10 people indoors and 20 outdoors at any one time is not profitable and must be reconsidered.

Traralgon Vineyard owner Leon Hammond made the decision to remain closed despite lockdown ending in regional Victoria. Mr Hammond said the new limit was not enough for many hospitality businesses to even consider reopening and comes as an ‘insult’ after almost two years in lockdown limbo. “It’s just not practical, really it’s an insult to a person’s intelligence the decision they’ve made to do this because

you just can’t viably operate,” he told The Express. “The trauma for us in hospitality is when you get up in the morning, you’re just not sure what’s going to happen next.” Mr Hammond said he was particularly frustrated with the logic behind the decision to reopen hospitality businesses with such low numbers. “I’m sure they’ve got a spinning wheel or a dart board because there’s no

consistency, there’s no formula, there’s no scientific proof of what they are doing, and they just pluck a figure out of the air and go with it,” he said. Initially hoping to reopen at full capacity, Mr Hammond went as far as requesting bookings on Facebook, to which he received 102 in the hour and a half before becoming aware of the 30-person limit.

LATROBE City has the lowest COVID-19 vaccination rates out of the six Gippsland local government areas, according to the latest federal government health data. Local government COVID-19 vaccination rates up to September 5 revealed only 36.9 per cent of Latrobe City residents aged 15 years or over have received two doses. That ranks Latrobe City behind East Gippsland (48.4 per cent), Bass Coast (47.1), Wellington (44.4), South Gippsland (41.5) and Baw Baw (39.8) when it comes to double vaccinations. Across regional Victoria, 43.9 per cent of residents have received two doses. For single vaccinations, Latrobe City sits a distant last on 56.1 per cent, behind Bass Coast (74.1 per cent), East Gippsland (71.1), South Gippsland (68.6), Wellington (65.7) and Baw Baw (62.0). A Gippsland Regional Public Health Unit spokesperson said Latrobe City contained 40 per cent of Gippsland’s overall population, which meant it was “naturally going to take longer for people (in Latrobe) to get vaccinated”. The spokesperson said the GRPHU was building upon a vaccination outreach program to get more needles into local arms. It is being developed in partnership with local health s e r v i c es a n d c o m mu n i ty organisations to target remote and vulnerable people in Gippsland. It comes as people between 16 and 59 can access the Pfizer vaccine, while over 60s are eligible for AstraZeneca without any criteria. “We have the student blitz currently operating and (children from) 12 to 15 years are eligible under selective criteria,” the spokesperson said. “Vaccine supply is constantly increasing as is eligibility criteria. “People can now get vaccinated at state-run community vaccination centres, at their local GP clinic, a respiratory clinic and participating pharmacies.” The GRPHU spokesperson said vax rates may be higher in other parts of Gippsland due to older overall population demographics, where eligibility was initially a priority.

“With the increase in eligibility and access to the vaccine, we suspect the numbers getting vaccinated will steadily increase across the board - as figures are already starting to show,” the spokesperson said. Regional Development Minister Mary-Anne Thomas congratulated regional Victorians for rolling up their sleeves, stating vaccination was the pathway out of the pandemic. “We are looking all the time which way we can get more vaccines into more arms as quickly as possible,” Ms Thomas said. “We can only operate with the supply we have, we will continue to advocate to our Commonwealth government for Victoria to receive its fair share of vaccines.”

Vaccine passports trial being floated THE state government is looking to trial vaccine passports in parts of regional Victoria to allow people to attend outdoor events, Regional Development Minister Mary-Anne Thomas revealed last week. Ms Thomas said she had met with regional Victorian business leaders and local government representatives to discuss the concept. However, Ms Thomas was unable to confirm which regional areas would be a part of the trial. “We are looking to roll-out vaccine trials in rural and regional Victoria, this is an exciting opportunity for regional Victoria,” Ms Thomas said. “We know from talking to mayors this morning there will be many communities keen to put their hands up to be a part of these trials.” Ms Thomas said state government agencies were working with interstate governments to design an app that could ease-in the trial. But she stressed it was too early to give further details. “It means we will bring technology together, we will be looking to use parts of regional Victoria to test whether we can bring people together in larger groups,” she said. “People who have been vaccinated could go to

outdoor events and then indeed further down the track to larger indoor events.” Ms Thomas pointed to previous statements made by Premier Daniel Andrews around a “future much less about lockdowns and more about lockouts”. She said the trial could allow people to get “parts of their old life back they’ve been missing out on”. “This includes concerts, music, performances, art, and being amongst people again. Technology and vaccine passports will be a key to that.” It comes as Mr Andrews flagged that regionalspecific lockdowns could be applied if positive cases popped up, instead of plunging the entire state into lockdown. Public Health Policy and Strategy deputy secretary Nicole Brady said these targeted lockdowns would depend largely on the nature of individual cases. “It’s about the stories about the cases, it depends on whether we know how the transmission occurred, the nature of the interaction that positive case had on the community, if at all,” Ms Brady said. “There are a lot of different risks associated compared to a case that just pops up with no ability to understand where the transmission occurred or if that person was out and about.”

Mr Hammond told The Express logistical issues such as having to be prepared to cater for all dishes on the vineyard’s à la carte menu meant opening for 10 people would potentially equate to more losses. “The frustration is if you order food for 10 people and you’ve got an à la carte menu, if you only have four things on it, it means you’ve got to have 40 serves of food because they might all order chicken, or all order the steak,” he said. “We could do it if we made soup and toast for 10 people but we’d have to charge them $50 for soup and $10 for the toast.” Public Health Policy and Strategy deputy secretary Nicole Brady said the state government’s decision to implement a 10 indoor and 20 outdoor limit was made to prevent potential super spreader events. “It’s in regards to the number of people who

$ Out in force: Up to 200 police officers will be deployed the metropolitan-regional border to prevent an exodus of Melburnians to regional Victoria. file photograph

VICTORIA Police reassured regional Victorians that a heightened police presence along the metropolitan-regional border will prevent an exodus of Melburnians to the bush. Deputy Commissioner Rick Nugent said around 200 additional police officers had been deployed to assist with ‘Operation Guardian’ beginning at midnight last Thursday. “About 200 police have been tasked with this operation, it will include booze buses, random checkpoints, roving patrols and the use of AMPR technologies to ensure that those people trying to enter are prevented from doing so,” he said. Unlike last time lockdown was lifted for regional Victoria when police were mostly patrolling back roads, Dep Comm Nugent said there would now be an increased police presence on the main arterial roads as well. “That operation will be to protect that regional area by having permanent and highly visible police patrols on the regional arterial as well as back

roads. Absolutely expect you (Melbourne residents) will be intercepted,” he said. Dep Comm Nugent also said local police resources would be out in force in tourist areas likely to be visited by Melbourne residents. “At the same time, the sentinel resources and local police resources in regional areas will focus on targeting those tourist areas and places that is likely metro people may go to again make sure we identify those people and then deal with them appropriately,” he said. Dep Comm Nugent also defended the decision to not reinstate the ‘ring of steel’ checkpoints we saw during last year’s lockdowns. “At this point we are not planning on those large infrastructure sites with the checking of every vehicle,” he said. “What we’ve found with the two previous easing of restrictions, we had this mobile, highly visible police presence on the back roads and those main arterials. We found that was quite effective.”

IN Australia, more than 46,000 children and young people are not able to live with their parents for various and complex reasons such as family breakdowns, family violence or neglect. Foster and kinship carers are our community’s heroes who open their hearts and homes to provide care and opportunity for young Australians to thrive and belong, whether it’s for a few days, one night, a few weeks, a few months or even years. Quantum believes that all children and young people deserve safe, stable and loving homes. However, across Gippsland there is a growing need for more foster and kinship carers and on a daily basis Quantum is seeking more foster homes for those children and young people who are in urgent need of them. Often the need is 10 times more than the amount of foster homes we currently provide. The greatest barrier to providing short- or long-term homes for

young people is a shortage of carers.

Foster Care Week 12 - 18 September, 2021

Adaptability... caring through COVID GP1632113

Space for the kids to grow and thrive – Debra and Frank DEBRA and Frank first discussed the idea of foster care after seeing a TV advertisement calling for families to provide a home for children with additional needs. The couple live on acreage in West Gippsland, being out of town has meant they have lots of space so their children are able to pursue their individual passions while growing up. The couple undertook the required care training, knowing that they could provide a loving home to children who require a little extra support. Four-year-old James* arrived a couple of months later, and the couple suddenly found themselves on a steep learning curve. “It was challenging to begin with, I have to be honest, but there was no way we were going to give up on him,” Debra said. “James is the sort of person who wants to be involved in everything, so we promised

ourselves that he would have all the same opportunities as other children his age.”

choices, but we’re always close by if she needs a hand with something,” Frank said.

Once he settled into his new environment we got him into basketball and bike riding – he has completed three Great Victorian Bike Rides to date!

More recently when the couple were doing some ongoing foster care training, they were asked if they would consider taking a third child into their care.

“James is 32 now and is living and working in Western Australia,” he said.

After having such positive previous experiences, they decided to agree. “Matthew* was two-and-a-half when he came to us in 2010. We’re fortunate to have a really close relationship with his birth family who love him dearly – they are keen to be actively involved in Matthew’s life, but don’t have the resources to care for him full time due to his complex needs,” Debra said.

“He has support managing his finances to make sure he pays his bills and rent on time, and to make sure he budgets enough to spend on his groceries, but he has independence.” When James was eight, Debra and Frank were asked to become permanent carers for Rachel*, a four-and-a-half year old who was not able to talk or walk properly. “Rachel only walked on her tippy toes when she came to us, we would take her down to the beach and get her walking on the soft sand to build the muscles in her legs,” Frank said.

“With persistence and encouragement Rachel got the hang of it – and in terms of her speech, you can’t stop her talking now.” Now 28, Rachel lives in an independent unit on Debra and Frank’s property.

She works three days a week and has a carer come to help her with cooking and cleaning one day a week. “Having Rachel just down the driveway is the best outcome for all of us. She is able to do what she likes and make her own

“Matthew is 13 now and loves dancing. The closest dance class for children with Down Syndrome is in Cranbourne, so each week after school we drive to dance and have Hungry Jack’s for dinner in Longwarry on the way home – it’s our Wednesday routine.”

Debra and Frank both agree that being a foster carer is a real joy. “For people who are considering foster care, we encourage you to find out more about it, we have just loved the experience. We often say that if we were 20 or 30 years younger we would have a house full of kids – seeing them reach their full potential and become independent is so rewarding,” Debra said. “The key is to stay positive and know there is support available when you need it. We don’t know what we’d be doing now if we weren’t caring for these children,” Frank.

10 YEARS PLAN FOR LOCAL TV AGGREGATION

25 YEARS AGO Tuesday, September 16, 1986

The Gippsland Broadcasting Taskforce has come up with an alternative to aggregation of regional television by 1988. In a discussion paper released yesterday, the taskforce has suggested a 10-year staged introduction to aggregation as a ‘possible fallback position’ to total aggregation within two years. The Taskforce claims this proposal would save local content and employment. Taskforce secretary Mike Willis said the main opposition to aggregation was the possible loss of jobs and local program content. “TV8 would continue its operations until 1988 when a second competitive station would be introduced. This would mean that throughout Victoria, two stations rather than three would be competing for the limited regional market,” he said.

Although 17 youngsters were assembled under the one roof in Morwell on Sunday, not a sound could be heard!

1986 will go down as the year of the Magpie following Sale’s 22-point win over Morwell in Saturday’s Latrobe Valley Football League grand final. Despite the drizzling rain which persisted all day, the two top teams in the competition turned on a highly-entertaining game of football which had the large crowd on its toes throughout the match. Shane Loveless booted four goals as Sale won the match 13.15 (93) to 10.11

The president of the Australian Medical Association (Victoria) has called the proposed formation of Gippsland Medicare Local a ‘’big mistake’’ and a ‘’waste of money’’. Speaking to The Express while on a two-day visit to the region, Dr Harry Hemley said doctors in the region were ‘’very angry’’ at the proposed changes as they did not feel supported by the government. The AMA president said the formation of Medicare Local is part of a federal government push, costing taxpayers $457 million to set up, with an additional $167 million annually to fund its ‘’bureaucracy’’, draining funds from general practices.

SHOUT OUT TO BLOCK NOISE

Angry residents have turned to politicians for help after their pleas to ease traffic noise near the Morwell Princes Freeway bypass have fallen on deaf ears. Residential Outcry Against Roadnoise called on State Member for Morwell Russell Northe to reduce the ‘’ever-increasing’’ noise from the freeway. ROAR spokeswoman Julie Hall said the freeway reopened, the current peace and quiet would be ‘’shattered by around 20,000 vehicle movements a day.”

DEMONS RISE TO THE TOP

Boolarra caused one of the biggest upsets in Mid Gippsland Football League history, knocking off undefeated minor premier Trafalgar to claim its first premiership in 14 years. It was just the fourth seniors’ flag the Demons have won since 1905. “It hasn’t sunk in yet, I can’t believe it,” premiership coach Tony Giardina said. “Two in the 50s and one in 1997 and other than that we have been down the bottom ... a lot of blokes that have played here have been thrashed week-in, week-out, so it’s as much for them as it is for us.” Boolarra won 13.4 (82) to 8.5 (53), marking the end of a 31-game winning streak for the high-flying Bloods,

STAFF WALK OFF THE JOB

Latrobe Valley Centrelink staff walked off the job in unison with tens and thousands of public service workers across the country for a 24-hour strike on Friday as a three-year-old industrial dispute intensifies. Local Community and Public Sector Union members said enterprise bargaining, which has dragged on for more than 1000 days, was about maintaining fair conditions and work-life balance. The federal government’s stance is the union was ‘’favouring industrial action over delivering pay rises for their members”.

CLOSE CALL AT DRIVE THRU

KFC Morwell’s drive thru received some unexpected thoroughfare on Friday when a vehicle crashed into the barrier outside the service windows about 12.30pm. The male driver of the vehicle was hospitalised after suffering a medical episode, which police say contributed to the incident.

Residents at a unit block in Moe say they are living in fear as a dilapidated burnt out flat has started to attract ‘’dangerous’’ visitors. A unit at the Langford Street complex was gutted by fire about 10 months ago and has become a hangout for alleged illegal activity, according to residents. Police tape and protective boards cordoning off the unit have been slashed, and inside is littered with drug paraphernalia, empty alcohol jars and rubbish.

PLANNERS SAY APPROVE PLANT Latrobe City planning officers have recommended councillors approve a permit to build a used lead acid battery recycling facility at Hazelwood North.

MILK TANKER COLLECTS SERVICE STATION BOWSER

The driver of a milk tanker that crashed into the Shell Coles Express petrol station in Traralgon just after midnight last Friday has no memory of the accident. The man, aged in his 60s, allegedly failed to brake at the intersection of Breed Street and the Princes Highway, travelled over a centre median strip, collected traffic lights before entering the westbound lane of the highway and into the exit lane of the service station. The truck collided with a parked car and stopped before hitting the service station, where the driver, two women and an attendant were inside.

Any changes in the bread dispute between retailers and manufacturers appears dependent on a meeting both parties hope can be held tomorrow. However, spokesmen for the retailers and manufacturers seem uncertain whether the meeting will be held. An estimated 95 per cent of Gippsland bread retailers are involved in some action against manufacturers who have reduced the retailers’ sales margins by five per cent and in some cases more. Gippsland retailers were represented by the Association at a meeting last Thursday in Yallourn with four bread manufacturers - Home Pride, Sunicrust, United Gippsland Bakers and Morwell Australian Continental Bakery.

Morwell branch’s closure a cruel blow By LIAM DURKIN

LONG-TIME Morwell resident Arie Van Der Stoep has spoken up in opposition to the impending closure of the town’s Bank Australia branch. Mr Van Der Stoep, who has carried the nickname ‘Harry’ since his younger days for reasons of simplicity, felt compelled to say something after seeing a letter in The Express urging Bank Australia to reconsider its decision. Bank Australia plans to close the branch at the end of the month, amid what it has described as “changing needs and expectations of customers”. Mr Van Der Stoep however believes the needs of many that use the bank have not changed at all, and said the closure of the branch will be a cruel blow for the community. “There are still a lot of people I know that are going to that bank,” he said. “That is the only bank, there are no other banks in Morwell.” Having been in Morwell since 1954, Mr Van Der Stoep has seen the customer-owned Bank Australia branch grow from humble beginnings. The bank also holds a special place in the former SEC worker’s heart, as he played a role in helping establish what was to become Morwell’s Bank Australia. “The SEC guys initially started it, then it became the co-op and it grew from there,” he explained. “Now a Johnny-come-lately comes to town and says ‘shut it down’ - no way (can that happen).” Bank Australia was formed in 1957 which over time merged credit unions and co-ops such as the one formed in Morwell. Mr Van Der Stoep said it was unreasonable to expect other pensioners to travel to Bank Australia branches in Moe and Traralgon just to “get their pocket money”.

Determined: Arie Van Der Stoep is calling on Bank Australia to reverse its decision to close the Morwell branch. photograph liam durkin

“It is a crazy thing to go to Moe or Traralgon,” he said. “I know a lot of people pay by card, but we are old fashioned - we pay by cash.” With calls within the community for Bank Australia to reverse its decision, the sprightly

Mr Van Der Stoep said he was up for the fight. “I’m 91, but you don’t walk over me,” he said defiantly. “We have to make noise.” The Morwell central business district has already lost three bank branches in the past 12 months.

The ANZ on Commercial Road and Bendigo Bank on Tarwin Street closed, while the Commonwealth Bank relocated to Mid Valley. Bank Australia was contacted for comment.

Health needs priority when it GEST’s relocation at the hub comes to planning provisions of recent council discussion

LATROBE City councillors are continuing their push for the Victorian government to include human health outcomes under state planning provisions. Latrobe City will ask the Municipal Association of Victoria to take up the issue at a state council meeting in November. It will ask the MAV to advocate to the Victorian government to include a greater focus on community health and well-being in the state’s planning provisions and decision-making. Cr Tracie Lund raised the motion at Latrobe City’s September meeting, on the back of a similar motion she had raised earlier this year. It comes after the issue had been rigorously discussed in the wake of a controversial planning application for a used lead acid battery recycling plant in Hazelwood North. Planning Minister Richard Wynne approved the development under the state’s planning provisions, despite local opposition which campaigned on adverse community health outcomes. Cr Lund said economic, environmental and social considerations were included under the Planning and Environment Act, but “health is not

on an equal footing with these other objectives”. She had previously asked the state government to clarify “the principles that exist in legislation to ensure the health of Latrobe City residents” in regards to the Health Innovation Zone. Part of her motion also included asking for local municipal public health and wellbeing plans to be linked into state planning schemes. She said the Latrobe Planning Scheme included a number of policy documents that included health as a guide for assessing planning applications. “Unfortunately though, this is not the same recognition as being an objective of an Act or including specific health clauses in the Victorian planning provisions,” Cr Lund said. Cr Kellie O’Callaghan said taking the issue to the MAV meeting would allow it to be discussed with other councils facing planning challenges. “This isn’t easy and it’s an ongoing difficulty for council. Changes that happen at state level directly impact what happens in our community in relation to planning,” Cr O’Callaghan said. “We often find ourselves as a council in a difficult situation where we don’t have the level of influence we need in terms of the works that needs to be undertaken in regards to community health and well-being.”

By TOM GANNON

LATROBE City Council will produce a report looking into ways it can assist Gippsland Employment Skills Training (GEST) after the service was forced to relocate from the former Moe Community Groups Hub. On July 5, GEST, who held the commercial lease at the former Moe Library along with other community groups were told to vacate the premises by August 20. Cr Dale Harriman moved the motion citing the short notice and impact on GEST as a reason for wanting to see if council could provide any financial or funding based assistance. “This has had a huge impact on GEST, they had to at very short notice attempt to find alternate accommodation and move a vast array of services, equipment and furniture from Moe to the only location they were able to find which was in Morwell,” he told council’s recent monthly meeting. Cr Harriman said he believed the July 5 decision did not meet with the resolution of council that was made during a closed session and had not been “dealt with in the manner that we councillors had decreed they should be”. “On the fifth of July (GEST) were advised they had to leave, that does not meet with the

resolution of council that was made in a closed session, therefore I’m asking my fellow councillors to allow a report to come back so we can determine how much of a financial implication or costing implication this had,” he said. Although the motion was ultimately carried, Cr Brad Law opposed the motion stating it would be a “disservice to ratepayers if we funded them (GEST) any more” and that Latrobe City Council had met their obligation under the lease. “While they’ve been tenants of that building GEST have been the beneficiary of, depending on what type of commercial rate you want to put on it, have been the beneficiary of probably $170,000250,000 in funding so for us to fund them again is just not on,” he said. In response, Cr Harriman said council should consider assisting GEST as it had been a council decision which saw the Community Groups Hub originally established. “It was a decision of council to agree to a peppercorn rent, it was a decision of council to set up a community hub, GEST fulfilled those, they were meeting the requirements of a council decision,” he said. The report is due to be presented at council’s next meeting on October 4.

Hard border halts Peter’s grand final streak PETER Dell has attended every VFL/AFL grand final since 1954. His first was as a seven-year-old when he and his father watched as Footscray defeated Melbourne by 51 points - 15.12 (102) to 7.9 (51). But his 67-year streak (which includes being at the two grand final replays in 1977 and 2010 - so 69 deciders in total) has come to a crashing end due to Western Australia’s border closures. Mr Dell, a Collingwood supporter, was denied entry despite organising a property in Perth to quarantine in following a direct trip from his home of Nilma to Tullamarine Airport. He is a familiar face to many in the Latrobe Valley because he normally purchases his tickets at the Ticketek office in Morwell (Morwell Newspower Centre), at times spending more than a week sleeping in his car to be at the front of the line. “In my dreams I was hoping it would happen, but it wasn’t until I got the email that it hit me - it’s (the streak) over,” Mr Dell told the Herald Sun. It is somewhat ironic that the first grand final he has missed features the very two teams who played in the first he ever witnessed after Melbourne thumped Geelong and the Western Bulldogs dismantled Port Adelaide. The grand final, to be played at Optus Stadium in Perth, is on September 25. .

It has been a tough period for all in the hospitality industry due to COVID-19 and all the associated lockdowns, but hopefully Premier Daniel Andrews can lift the numbers and venues such as the one on the corner of Franklin and Kay streets will be once again full of people enjoying a cold beer or two sooner rather than later.

I HEAR Tell is a resurrection of the famous column which appeared in the pages of The Express during the 1980s. So each week, we’ll dig into the archives and share a story. This from January 23, 1986. THERE is something a little differet about this year’s Latrobe Valley Festival Queen Quest. As usual, there will be a Gala Ball to crown the young woman who wins the Quest and she will still officiate at Festival functions. But this year, the Quest has a new emphasis. Arguably the hardest aspect of the Quest ... plotting, scheming and working hard to raise that elusive cash for charity, has been axed. Entrants now only have to appeal to judges with their looks, personality and charm. The reason, it’s said, is that the organisational side of the Quest got off to a late start and so entrants had too little time to devote to fundraising.

A POWER PLAYER WE’VE got the story in today’s paper about AGL Loy Yang general manager Nigel Browne calling stumps after 37 years at the station. Did you know that Mr Browne was a top-quality soccer player, winning the 1996 Latrobe Valley Soccer League best and fairest and earning a spot in Churchill United’s team of the half-century announced in 2019. He and fellow Churchill legend Adrian Huizer’s contribution to growing the women’s game in the Gippsland region saw the Browne-Huizer Cup, named in their honour.

State government’s social housing plan By TOM GANNON

LATROBE City is among the areas to feature as part of the state government’s Big Housing Build program. The program will see $1.25 billion invested in new social and affordable housing across regional Victoria across the next four years in response to increasing population growth. It aims to create more rental housing to support employment growth in regional towns and cities. Latrobe City has been one of 18 local government areas selected for the Minimum Investment Guarantee. Morwell will receive four new homes delivered by Aboriginal Housing Victoria at a total cost of $1,327,124 and three new homes delivered by Community Housing Ltd at a total cost of $1,345,760. Housing Minister Richard Wynne said the program will have several benefits for the chosen areas in regional Victoria. “It’s about the provision of much needed social housing in regional Victoria, it also is really important in terms of its economic stimulus and the benefit to the supply chain in regional Victoria,” he said. Mr Wynne said it was important for these future

developments and existing properties that would be purchased by the state government for the purposes of social housing to be located in amenity accessible areas. “We see that as absolutely fundamental, particularly where for instance you’ve got women and children escaping domestic violence, we want to make sure there are appropriate support services located around them,” he told The Express. “You don’t want people to be pushed into areas that are not well located and do not have good services and amenities around them, that will always be at the forefront of our construction activity, but also our spot purchase program as well.” Mr Wynne said the state government wanted to “partner up” with local council and would use Latrobe City’s existing housing strategy as a guide for the development of this housing in Morwell. “I think Morwell have done a fantastic job in this space and they are doing excellent work to put that strategy in place which becomes guiding principles for not only the council but also for us as a state government,” he said. “You can be assured that we will continue to have a really strong association and relationship with councils like Latrobe who are at the front saying they are up for this conversation and want to be engaged actively with government.”

St Joseph’s show support

Thumbs up: Trafalgar High School Year 8 students Kyen Jenkins, Riley Claridge and Lincoln Riley show their R U Okay Day wrist band. photographs supplied

R U OK Day? at Traf High FOR R U OK Day? on Thursday, September 9, Trafalgar High School marked the national Mental Health promotion day as a school community reinforcing the importance of staying connected with friends, family, and colleagues with students, staff and our wider community. From themed word searches to staff PD webinars, the day was marked by students who were both working remotely and onsite. The school which has offered Teen Mental Health First Aid to all Year 10 students already in 2021 and will offer Year 8 students the program in Term 4 has participated in a wide range of mental health promotion activities. “It’s such a pleasure to see the confidence growing in our community to support friends & family with mental health,” principal Jane Mersey said. “Events like R U OK Day? and Teen Mental Health First Aid support our community to genuinely ask friends and family are you OK?”

ST Joseph’s School community has asked R U OK? In pandemic times this question is even more important. Because when it comes to our friends, family and colleagues, do we really know how they are doing? As close as we might be, sometimes it is hard to tell. So, stay connected and make asking R U OK? part of your everyday. That way, if they are struggling with something big or something small or maybe nothing at all, they’ll know you care. Are they really ok? Ask today. Learn how to ask at ruok.org.au because a conversation could change a life. To acknowledge R U OK? Day, staff at St Joseph’s School in Trafalgar were presented with care packages. Some staff had their packages delivered to their homes as they were working from home and others participated in the event at school in COVIDSafe conditions. The care packages included each staff member’s favourite hot and cold drink, chocolate treats and home baked goodies provided by the Parents and Friends Group (special thanks to Lauren, Ruby, Kylee and Narelle).

New skills are unleashed LOCKDOWNS haven’t prevented St Paul’s Anglican Grammar School Year 9 students from pursuing new skills as they work enthusiastically on their Personal Projects during online learning. A highlight of the Year 9 Thinking and Learning unit at St Paul’s, the Personal Project requires students to research, plan and produce their project around an area of interest or a passion. The students have worked hard on their projects during online learning and are optimistic about the prospect of presenting

them to other students at school next term. Teachers have supported the students and provided advice as needed. The St Paul’s Head of Years 9 and 10, Ms Kirsten Enders, has been thrilled to witness the growth of the students and said, “Online learning has been a challenge for our students, however one positive is that our Year 9 Personal Projects can still steam ahead, as most activity takes place at home to complete them. We have enjoyed touching base with our students this week to see the variety of marvellous talents and skills at work”.

Men: Get checked for prostate cancer

By TOM GANNON

Be on the front foot: Latrobe Regional Hospital’s Prostate Cancer Specialist Nurse Leanne Prosser is urging Gippsland men to get tested for prostate cancer. photograph supplied

them off and they don’t need to, they just need to have the PSA done,” Ms Prosser said. A prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test is a simple blood test which looks at the levels of the PSA protein in the blood, a common identifier of prostate cancer. Ms Prosser is urging all men aged over 50 and men in their 40s with a family history of cancer to book in for a PSA test as a top priority as it may mean the difference between life and death.

“If you’re 40 and you’ve got a family history of prostate cancer, breast cancer or ovarian cancer in the family you need to start having PSAs done at the age of 40, if you don’t have any of that history the age of 50 is when they recommend you start having simple blood tests,” she said. With many men experiencing anxiety and depression as a result of their cancer and 70 per cent of those diagnosed having an increased risk of suicide, Ms Prosser is urging family and friends to

recommend their loved ones get tested for prostate cancer before the outcome becomes dire. “With anybody who’s diagnosed with cancer of any sort, of course it’s going to affect them emotionally and to different degrees depending on what’s happened in their past, what other family members they’ve seen die from cancer,” she said. “That and the impacts of COVID, they’ve found the suicide rates go up in men with prostate cancer.”

LATROBE Regional Hospital’s Prostate Cancer Specialist Nurse Leanne Prosser is urging Gippsland men to get tested for prostate cancer. The issue of prostate cancer is timely as September is Prostate Cancer Awareness Month. Prostate cancer is the most common cancer among men with 45 Australian men diagnosed each day. Ms Prosser told The Express conversations around prostate cancer should be on the forefront of everyone’s mind because Gippsland men, particularly farmers, typically only get diagnosed at a point when the cancer has spread which significantly reduces chances of survival. “We get a lot of farmers who don’t worry about their health as much as they do with their own animals and they’re more worried about their season with their farms,” she said. “They put their own health aside and don’t look into it and treat it as if it’s an old guy thing and just think its ageing.” Prostate cancer can also be extremely dangerous and go undetected as its early stages usually do not cause symptoms and only become apparent when the cancer had advanced beyond the prostate. Symptoms of prostate cancer can include frequent urination, pain while urinating, blood in the urine or semen, a weak stream, pain in the back or pelvis, weak legs or feet, bone pain and unexplained weight loss and fatigue. Ms Prosser said misconceptions about expecting symptoms and signs of prostate cancer means many men will often be presented with dire outcomes once they do decide they should get tested. “A lot of people have died from saying I didn’t even have symptoms,” she said. “Prostate cancer doesn’t always have symptoms so they can go unaware because it doesn’t cause urinary problems like everyone thinks it does and that’s why it escapes the prostate and it much more difficult to treat. “We’ve had quite a few people come in recently who were complaining of bone pain and have been found to have prostate cancer all the way through.” Misconceptions about the methods of testing for prostate cancer also often see men being reluctant to get tested. “Everyone has this misconception that they are going to go in and get a finger test which really puts

Reassess your decision Bank Australia TO the management of Bank Australia, Morwell. I am writing on behalf of the Fossick and Find Committee which has expressed their dismay that our Morwell branch is to be closed. We run a charity opportunity shop in George Street, within the CBD of Morwell. The shop is staffed by volunteers, most of whom have concluded their regular working life and are happy to give back something to the community by contributing their time and energy without pay. Fossick and Find is frequented by many local people who are looking for a bargain, prefer to reuse items rather than have them go into landfill, or who need to minimise their weekly costs to simply survive. Morwell is currently facing a severe lack of banking options for small businesses and social enterprises like ourselves. We need somewhere to deposit cash and understandably our (mostly older) volunteers do not want to drive after a tiring shift to deposit the cash which many of our customers continue to prefer to use. When the Commonwealth Bank decided to move to Mid Valley Shopping Centre and the Bendigo Bank closed, I encouraged the committee to bank with Bank Australia, with whom I have been a customer (across the variations of the organisational mergers) for more than 30 years. Your purpose to create a world where people and the planet thrive, gave me good reason to be assured that the Morwell branch would be here to stay. How wrong I was! I am perplexed how closing the branch at Morwell, the most disadvantaged town in the Latrobe Valley, can fit with your stated values of ‘Care and empathy’, ‘Belonging and community’ or your aim of wanting all ‘Australians (to) thrive in a fair, just’ society. I recognise that many people use banking apps, but in areas of disadvantage there are fewer people who have this option available to them. How does driving to another town fit ‘generational thinking’ or concern for the environment? People who no longer earn an income often do not have the financial resources available to add extra fuel to their own outgoings. I personally and the Fossick and Find committee encourage you to reconsider your decision to close the branch and to maintain a face to face banking presence in Morwell. Simply using your building for offices will not address the issues raised in this letter. I await your response. Sue Jacka, Fossick and Find chair Anglican Parish of Morwell rector Bank Australia customer

Mr Chester, I presume

RE: Chester to adopt pragmatic approach in Joyce dealings (The Express, 1/7/21). I was interested to read in the above story that Mr Chester described his relationship with Mr Joyce as ‘dead’! Whether Mr Chester likes it or not, Barnaby Joyce was elected as Nationals Leader and therefore Deputy Prime Minister of the Coalition government. I have met him and he is an affable leader. As a Veteran, and a holder of a white card; I wonder if there are any benefits at all; as I am also an aged pensioner. The local RSL and the Carry On Café do an excellent job in trying to assist the Veterans, but were hampered by the lack of attention to the plight of Veterans by the previous minister (Mr Chester).

I would appreciate a list of names of all members of this group to validate their ability to speak on behalf of my community. Alan McFarlane, Morwell

Elementary manual work

In focus: Bank Australia’s decision to close its Morwell branch continues to attract letters to the editor, including one today from Sue Jacka. Sadly it was deemed necessary by the Carry On Café crew to start up a food bank. Mr Chester appeared to be more active in taking photos, than his actual presence. Veterans’ benefits should be at a premium above Centrelink, to allow for a bit of dignity. In an article in the Herald-Sun (5/12/20) “Happening on our soil” – Vikki Campion (Barnaby Joyce’s wife) made some valid points and insight into why Mr Chester was axed from his cabinet position. “It was not Chester who stood by Julie-Anne Finney, mother of Dave Stafford Finney, who took his own life; when she powerfully called for a Royal Commission into Veteran suicides, but his Labor shadow! “We must ask why it was only two returned servicemen members of parliament, Phil Thompson and Luke Gosling, who spoke up for soldiers on each side while the Minister was silent. “Accountability should start at the top and Cabinet Minister Mr Chester is being paid $365,000 a year to not say – or do – very much at all.” It is not hard to deduce why the Royal Commission was necessary, but Mr Chester was apparently not supportive. Merv Geddes, Morwell

Just who do Voices of the Valley represent?

COULD someone please advise our community who ‘Voices of the Valley’ represent? I continuously see them in the media speaking on behalf of the Latrobe Valley community. For the past 40 years, and with a pretty broad network, particularly in Morwell, I am unaware of any of my friends/contacts who have ever suggested that this group represents them. From my point of view, our council, Latrobe City represents its community. It is disappointing that an activist group gets mileage from purporting to represent the broad community.

I CAN see the men working in the gardens and on the road. I can also see that the men are doing elementary manual work, which has no economic potential and almost no economic value. Most of the men working on the new freeway also do elementary manual work. Driving a steam roller or a grader is obviously elementary work. In contrast, the work of professional engineering can be seen in the American Journal of Civil Engineering, which is available on the internet. It should be clear that driving a steam roller or grader is a very small part of the construction work of a freeway. It should also be clear that professional engineering is much more difficult than driving a steam roller or a grader. All academic work is like this. Grahame Bell, Earlville

Latrobe City Council needs to be the beacon that attracts developments

RESPONDING to the article “Council calls on Minister” (The Express, 19/8/21). The Latrobe City Council has again missed an opportunity to lead in the transition to a clean zero emissions future based on renewable energy. Their claims that there was not enough time for council to consider the Delburn Wind Farm proposal flies in the face of the facts that the project was announced more than two and a half years ago and that community consultation has been going for over two years. It is simply untrue to say that the company has not tried to reach all stakeholders near the proposed development site. OSMI have local employees and a local office and have continued to offer briefings to any interested individuals and community groups or organisations, including the Latrobe City councillors. If the councillors have chosen not to proactively engage with the proponent on what they now consider to be a project with important community issues and if they say that they are unaware of what is being proposed, then I would suggest it is their own fault. As for the council’s complaint that planning permissions for major projects has been removed from local government and given to the Planning Minister, I would think that there is a good reason for that. Nothing would get built otherwise. This council in particular, seems incapable of seeing the bigger picture, that action on climate change is urgent. By not supporting this project, nor the Fraser Lane Solar Farm last year and not declaring a climate emergency as 100 other LGA’s have already done in Australia, they are just demonstrating a lack of vision that serves the residents of Latrobe City poorly.

GROWING trees need three essentials – radiant energy from the sun, CO2 and rain from the atmosphere, and nutrients and minerals from the soil. Climate alarmists correctly claim that burning forest products in thermal power stations is “netzero emissions” because burning the wood just puts the same CO2 back into the atmosphere. Identical reasoning applies to grazing cattle. Grasses have the same needs as growing trees: sunlight, CO2, water, and soil nutrients. Cattle eat pastures to build proteins, fats and bones. If meat and milk from cattle is consumed by humans, some of the carbon is quickly returned to the atmosphere via emissions from cattle and humans (from both ends). The rest is sequestered for a longish time in human bodies, bones and cemeteries, but eventually returns to the atmosphere. Thus raising cattle for meat or milk produces negative carbon emissions in the short-term and “net zero emissions” in the long-term. Managed properly in concentrated moving herds, grazing cattle also improve the health and carbon content of pastures and soils. Thus “All cows are green”. What about bovine methane? The carbon in methane comes from pastures and the atmosphere – grazing cattle put it back. About 20 per cent of Earth’s surface is covered by grasslands but trees and scrub are continually invading the grass. Huge mobs of wild and domesticated ruminants have been grazing the grasslands for millennia, providing food for humans and other carnivores further up the food chain. Replacing wild herds of grazing ruminants with domestic herds of grazing ruminants is another net zero game. Without grasses and ruminants, humans would starve. Despite what the green-smoothie set believe, humans cannot digest grass - that needs the second stomach of ruminants and that natural digestion process produces methane emissions. These emissions return valuable carbon to the atmosphere to nourish next season’s grasses. Methane has always seeped from marshes, bubbled from methane hydrates under the oceans and leaked from coal seams, oil and gas seeps, termite mounds and volcanoes. Ruminants will never trigger global warming but global cooling is a deadly threat. We are past the peak of this warm era. When the great ice sheets return only those with reliable energy and food supplies will survive. If we protect our cattle, they will support us. Viv Forbes, Washpool

The race to transition to 100 per cent renewables is well and truly on, and Latrobe City needs to put our region at the forefront of the replacement technologies. Wind and solar can be put anywhere in the state and there is nothing to mandate that they go here. Rather than presenting an impenetrable wall to sustainable development, the council needs to be the beacon that attracts developments here that will future-proof and benefit the Latrobe Valley and Gippsland and which are sustainable long term and can have a huge impact on saving the planet.

Yes, they’re masked: but not in the way we’ve recently come to know it. A crazy concoction of fun and masquerade, this unique escape from reality features celebrities disguised as wacky and quirky creatures – including an angelic baby, a downright bizarre kebab, a creepy looking, sparkly volcano, and a marine-inspired mullet creature – in a singing competition that is sure to leave you spinning. Their out-of-this-world garb is designed by Oscarwinning costume designer Tim Chappel, and the diverse guessing panel includes Dannii Minogue, Dave Hughes, Urzila Carlson and Jackie O, with Osher Gunsberg hosting. One peek, and you’ll lose yourself in the tomfoolery.

Flush with deeply flawed yet instantly engaging characters, this excellent series pulls the curtains tonight with its final episode. From the hustle and bustle of a Melbourne newsroom during a pivotal period of world and local news in 1986, the show has been packed with memorable moments from the headlines, but it’s the captivating mix of personalities that lingers. Tonight, will the intense and confusing relationship between newsreaders Helen ((Anna Torv) and Dale (Sam Reid) be resolved? The chemistry between the co-stars is magnetic, but as frightening reports of a nuclear disaster in Chernobyl emerge, they finally face their truths. Anna Torv in The Newsreader

Congratulations: Traralgon swimmer Emily Beecroft (second from right) with her relay teammates in Tokyo. Emily’s efforts at the paralympics earned many congratulations online last week. photograph supplied ash from EnergyAustralia, namely Yallourn Power Station, yet it’s closing in just under six years. Please explain. Benjamin Nichols: Ash ponds. Rosemary Twyerould: Is this the site where all the RTL machinery is? Joy Beulke: Sounds like a great investment for the area. NEW BOSS FOR YALLOURN POWER STATION Guss Lambden: Will be closed in a few years. The area needs these HELO power stations or nuclear. We need to move into the 21st century. Sherrie Hall: Do we still have a power station? NO JAB, NO ENTRY DECLARES BUSINESS Kristen Taffs: Anyone who agrees to segregating communities in this way should be ashamed of themselves. I will never support a business that pushes this agenda. I would never judge anybody for any choice they make and neither should you. Shame on you all!! Peter Weuffen: I think reducing the risk to himself his family and co-workers isn’t a stupid thing to do. That is my view, I’m entitled to it, just as others push their own. Jim Moore: If he was so concerned now, why didn’t he do it four lockdowns ago? He’s doing what the state government isn’t, forcing

Annie Goode: This is so sad. Jo Morgan Hunt: Highlights the need for more psychogeriatric beds. This is a specialty and needs specialist treatment. Michelle Maxwell: Thoughts are with all concerned. Dementia is a bloody hard thing to cope with regardless of age, situation etc. Melissa Ferguson: This is a most unfortunate event. My thoughts are with all involved. Very stressful indeed. Mike Hamilton: OK. What are the real issues? Under staffing? Inexperienced staff? Incorrect health assessment? Patient should have been in ‘safer’ accommodation that is unavailable due to lack of beds? Raeleen Pendlebury: Such a sad outcome for all involved. So many people with dementia act very differently to what they would have done when they were ‘normal’. Please have compassion for this gentleman, just as you do for the staff and other residents who were hurt. Remember, one day this could be you. VACCINE PASSPORTS FLAGGED FOR REGIONAL VICTORIA Julianne Pilgrim: They say it’s not mandatory to get vaccinated, but if you want to go places you have to be vaccinated? So in other words they are making it mandatory. Lizzie Wilson: This makes me mad beyond words Michelle Jenkins: So wrong, people’s own risk if they choose not to be vaccinated. Stewart Healy: I haven’t had the jab and you can’t stop me going anywhere, simple. It’s your choice to have the jab because you believe in it, if it works you don’t have a problem! John Arkinstall: Let’s hope that this move is matched by funding, with conditions about attendance, supporting communities and their volunteer organisations, the arts, sport and recreation. Steve Aitken: As if businesses that have been starved of income for the last 18 months, on the edge of bankruptcy, are going to turn away people that haven’t had the jab. Stephen Breheny: Great news. Anthony Clarke-Bruce: “Exciting times for regional areas.” OMG. Marcus Hiam: I just want to leave the state. Don Moore: This is just insane, seriously. Chris Szkwarek: I’m not in favour of this one. Kara Smith: All you people jumping up and down over semantics and the use of words ‘’vaccine passport’’. You already have a vaccine record! Look it up on Medicare. Gary Edwards: I decline your offer of a vaccine and associated vaccine passport.

all their employees to have the jab. With the amount of people employed in the public sector, we would get to 70 per cent reasonably quickly. Makes you wonder why the state isn’t doing it. Barb Wallis: I agree with this. However what if the person isn’t medically allowed to have the vaccination? Jacki Ward Malady: Good luck with that mate.Your business will suffer. Suzie Lissa: Why don’t companies organise a day on-site with nurses vaccinating the employees. Anne Orman: Good on them.You have a choice on getting the vaccinations, however, if you choose not to get it, you can deal with the consequences which are a restricted life, so better forget about flying. James Ruff: There’s plenty of jobs where other vaccinations are required, so why should this be any different? Andrew Balfour: A very progressive move by this company. Brad John: Creating division. Just what we need! Kathy Langstaff: About time. People need to grow a brain. POLICE INVESTIGATE ALLEGED ALTERCATION AT TRARALGON AGED CARE FACILITY Rochelle Leanne Marks: Thoughts are with all involved in this very sad situation.

NO NEW COVID POSITIVE CASE IN THE VALLEY Paula Stirzaker-Ostojic: They’re all negatives! Or should I say false positives! Desirea May: Funny how it comes out publicly when we are about to leave lockdown. Phillips DawnLa: Good news Jason Xerri: Surprise, surprise. LOCKDOWN TO BE LIFTED IN REGIONAL VICTORIA Dale Bleach: Let’s hope all the rural country folk remember how he’s locked them down for 18 months when many towns haven’t had hardly a case of COVID. Rachel Rachford: So many businesses still not allowed to open and no timeframe given. Louise Hogan: I don’t understand why we have to wait until tomorrow night ... they can lock us down with two hours’ notice, why can’t we open up first thing in the morning? Tia McNair: Regional dance schools for school age kids have been excluded once again! Aaron Young: Hopefully restrictions won’t be implemented that kill community events or entertainment from occurring.

Sam remembered as a cut above OBITUARY ISIDORO ‘SAM’ FINOCCHIARO JUNE 15, 1944-JULY 21, 2021

SAM was born on June 15, 1944 in Gaggi, Sicily, the youngest of four children. He migrated to Australia with his family in 1960, settling in Trafalgar and then moving to Warragul where he worked in a local fruit shop. Later, he started his first business venture running a small coffee lounge. In 1964, his brother Frank invested in a barber shop in Commercial Road, Morwell. Within six months he was so busy that he asked Sam to step in and this was the very beginning of Sam and Frank’s franchise that still thrives today. In 1975, they moved their business a few doors up to 244 Commercial Road and bravely opened the first unisex salon in Victoria. Their business expanded rapidly and during this time Sam travelled to Melbourne once a week for two years to complete his ladies qualification. He saw no reason for men and women to be separated and employed the first female barber in Victoria. Sam trained so many young apprentices, was mentor to hundreds of staff and connected with thousands of customers and touched many hearts. Sam was an entrepreneur and always challenged himself and the people around him to strive and flourish. By 1978, the business grew to 28 employees and in 1980 expanded again to open a second

Over the years the businesses continued to thrive and service the community and produced many award-winning staff. Sam gave support to the Latrobe Valley community through Apex and later the Rotary club. He organised many fashion parades and productions to raise money, awareness and support for many local charities. He continually improved his knowledge of the industry, having travelled overseas to enhance his skills in seminars and workshops globally.

He shared his knowledge and talent ahead of its time, also having the opportunity to showcase his skills in Melbourne and on national television. In 1987, he played an integral part in establishing a hair and beauty department at TAFE in Newborough to offer apprentices schooling who before this could only complete their qualifications in Melbourne. Sam was also a life member of the Italian Australian Club which included time serving as president and also the multicultural committee. He played an important role in establishing the Immigration Park at Kernot Hall in

Morwell and also received a multicultural award for his meritorious service to the community.

Psychologists shortfall is felt THE Gippsland region is experiencing a shortage of psychologists which has been exacerbated by long lists fuelled by COVID lockdowns. Gippsland was experiencing long waiting lists before lockdown due to the 2020 bushfires and other challenges faced by rural residents such as inaccessible housing, lack of employment and lack of mental health services. Local psychologist Dr Debra Smith feels that not enough people are in the profession, “the government always promises better mental health services but we don’t have enough people trained up. “We need more people training and better pathways...we need to attract people to rural areas and keep them in rural areas,” she said. Currently it takes at least six years of education to become a general psychologist, consisting of a bachelor’s degree followed by a fourth year of further studies then either an internship pathway or post graduate studies which can take a further two years. As of June 2021, Victoria had 11,231 general or provisional psychologists registered with 2381 of them approved supervisors according to the Psychology board APHRA. Dr Smith said the community was ready to fight through lockdowns and come out the other side at the beginning of Victoria’s lockdown last year. “In this region we felt we would do well and we could recover from natural disasters and bounce back...but no one expected it to go on this long,” Dr Smith said. Dr Smith was critical of governments for talking a lot about mental health services but failing to provide adequate assistance to the regions. “The government always promises better mental health services but we don’t have enough people trained to fill the gaps,” she said. Dr Smith says the mental health services in the Wellington Shire such as head to help are being stretched thin with some reports of a waiting list of up to nine weeks to see a mental health professional. Throughout lockdown seven we have seen claims that lockdowns are causing a mental health strain, but Dr Smith says it is not that simple. “A lot of things causes mental health issues, availability of housing would cause more problems than lockdown,” she said. While she says lockdowns are not solely responsible for a decline in mental health, Dr Smith believes the ending of lockdowns will lower the need for people to seek out her services, “if we open up again they no longer have such a need to come and see us,” she said.

Connection: Former Gippsland Grammar board chair and current parent Vicki McLeod, of Yarram, enjoys the opportunity to connect with the School Community at the Michael Grose session.

Parenting expert shares insights RENOWNED parenting expert and self-confessed anxiety sufferer Michael Grose ‘visited’ Gippsland Grammar last week to help families and staff understand and navigate anxiety generated by the COVID-19 pandemic. The online Zoom session was attended by about 200 members of the School Community from throughout the region including Yarram, Latrobe Valley, Sale, Maffra, Bairnsdale, Orbost and Metung. Each participant brought different experiences and challenges, some with children in the School’s Early Learning Centre and others with teenagers battling through VCE. Michael Grose is one of Australia’s leading parenting and educational writers and speakers. He is the author of nine books for parents, including the best-selling ‘Why First Borns Rule the World’.

Essentially, the evening explained the brain, the fundamentals behind anxiety, how to recognise anxiety and tips and ideas to manage it. “Fundamentally what is behind anxiety is a lack of control … and we need to give them (children) ideas to give them control,” Mr Grose said. “We need to get children out of their heads and into their guts.” Mr Grose said everyone had different ways of coping or managing in different situations. He explained that personality types and genetic predisposition impacted the way individuals coped in different or stressful situations. Mr Grose said there was no doubt that encouraging children to live in the present moment would make them feel less anxious. “Teenagers, and even adults, will fuse anxious thought with fact,” he said. Mr Grose said the key was to help students

recognise or notice the thought and move forward from there. Gippsland Grammar principal Leisa Harper was delighted to be able to help the school community convert some of the anxiety into resilience. “I know the pandemic continues to bring worry and anxiety to children and young people,” Mrs Harper said. “While children and teenagers were the special focus of this presentation, the messages of hope and resilience were just as pertinent for parents and teachers. “I was so pleased to engage with our families on this important issue - anxiety, the common cold of mental health. “It gave us a practical language to talk about anxiety, permission to be vulnerable, and tools to move forward.”

Gippsland Business Awards celebrated THE 2021 Federation University Gippsland Business Awards finalists were celebrated with an online event last week that also acknowledged the agility of all regional businesses in ongoing challenging times. Unable to celebrate in person as planned, the 2021 finalists were recognised at the Federation University Gippsland Business Awards’ first virtual launch. Gippsland Business Awards committee chair Graeme Sennett said while current restrictions prevented a face-to-face launch, it did not stop the launch celebration. “Gippsland businesses have been busy contending with and overcoming the many challenges presented by COVID-19 and this was just another bump,” Mr Sennett said.

“This year’s finalists represent the region’s most innovative, enthusiastic, professional, and outstanding businesses. In all, there are 51 finalists in 11 categories, with all areas of Gippsland well represented.” Mr Sennett said the organising committee was “thrilled to have the strong support of both Federation University as naming rights sponsor and Telstra, who traditionally sponsor the finalists’ breakfast”. Finalist categories this year include Accommodation, Beauty & Personal Care, Business & Professional Services, Food & Wine Producers, Health & Wellbeing, Hospitality, Manufacturing/ Export, Mechanical Trades & Construction, New Business, Retail, Tourism Activities & Attractions.

Happy 100th birthday to Marjorie

MARJORIE Metcalfe celebrated her 100th birthday on September 8 at the Royal Freemasons, Moe, with a high tea. Marj emigrated from England in 1957, with her husband Dick, and children Richard, Paul and Mary, leaving behind six sisters and a brother. The family settled happily in Moe, the children married and have presented her with eight grand children and 16 great grand children, who have all missed her greatly due to COVID lockdowns. After her husband died in June 2019, Marj went into care at the Royal Freemasons, where she has been well looked after ever since. From all her family, friends and us here at The Express, happy birthday Marj.

Sophie to shave her head for a great cause

GIPPSLAND Grammar Year 12 student Sophie Nickson will shave her head on Thursday, September 16 to raise money and awareness of kids’ cancer. But this not the first time the 18-year-old has donated her locks for a good cause. When Sophie was in Year 6 she cut nearly 30cm of length from her hair in honour of her best friend’s mum who had just been diagnosed with breast cancer. Back then the hair was made into a wig. “Ever since that day I told myself I would shave my head at the end of Year 12,” she said. “I have two younger siblings, both below 10, and the thought of them, or other children like them, having to worry about fighting cancer when all they should be worrying about is their next play date, seems so unfair to me.” At the time Sophie discovered The Kids Cancer Project she knew immediately she wanted to be part

New scholarship for Gippsland students

MONASH University is offering a new scholarship for a talented Gippsland year 12 student to support them in their higher education studies. The Vin and Rosemary Massaro Family Scholarship is available to students from the Latrobe Valley and wider Gippsland region, who will start their undergraduate studies at Monash University in 2022. The scholarship is thanks to a generous philanthropic gift from Vin and Rosemary Massaro. Dr Vin Massaro grew up in the Latrobe Valley, after his family moved to the region from Italy when he was eight years old. He recognises the fundamental change a tertiary education at Monash University made to his future prospects. Since graduating from Monash with a Bachelor of Arts and a PhD, Dr Massaro has had a successful career

in education management and policy in universities and government, both in Australia and internationally. Dr Massaro and his wife Rosemary met at Monash while studying French together. “The intention is to support talented students from the region who might otherwise lack the means to study at Monash, to help students realise their full potential through education, and to reduce the cycle of disadvantage, ultimately changing their lives for good,” Dr Massaro said. The scholarship will support an eligible student with an allowance for four years, plus support for on campus accommodation for the first two years, up to the value of $42,000.

Moe Art Society

THE Moe Art Society is now starting to set out their Art Show, which had been delayed because of restrictions. Members are working in with Rebecca Thomson of the Moe Library as regards to numbers allowed to be in the library during the setting up. The Opening Night now scheduled for Friday, September 24 may not be able to be held unless the restrictions are eased further. However, at this stage the Art Show and Artists @ Work will go ahead and the public will be welcomed into the Library to view the exhibition, although numbers will have to be strictly monitored. It has been an unsettling time for the Art Society as it has been for many other organisations during this COVID time. Members are looking forward to setting up and even though our advertising material and catalogues have the original dates we know the public will understand and come along and enjoy the experience.

Bumper meeting at Moe

HORSE RACING

MOE plays host to a bumper nine-race program today. Sadly due to current restrictions, no members of the public are allowed on course as participants vie for a share of $225,000 in prizemoney. Two Benchmark 64 Handicaps headline the program. The first, run over 1200m, sees the return of the exciting talent Holt. Holt, a four-year-old son of Night and Thunder, broke his maiden status at the 1214m trip on August 29 in impressive fashion. The track was last night rated a Soft 6, but with showers predicted today, a downgrade may not only be likely, but suit the chances of the Enver Jusufovic-trained galloper. Jake Noonan has been booked to ride Holt, who was rated a $2.60 favourite on Ladbrokes. Gdansk, fresh from a Benchmark 58 Handicap win on the Pakenham Synthetic at his most

The race boasts a strong local presence with

Joltin’ Joe generates attention on the strength of his fourth place effort in Benchmark 64 company at Cranbourne in his most recent start. Jason Maskiell stays in the saddle. Some of the early races feature interesting debutants including Miss Middle Park, a daughter of Japanese star Maurice and Senagalia, who both line-up in Race 1. Team Hawkes bring a rare horse to Moe in Saskatoon, who was bought for $80,000 at the 2020 Melbourne Premier Yearling Sale.

Good to be here: The Canfield family from Sale travelled to be part of the Grand Ridge Rail Trail parkun.

Parkrun makes a welcome return

PARKRUN GRAND RIDGE RAIL TRAIL

SATURDAY morning was a warm start to the weekend and 40 people came out to run, jog or walk for the return of parkrun after lockdown 6.1 and the first event of spring 2021. In addition to many of the regular local participants, parkrun was joined by eight first timers including the Canfield family from Sale, all decked out in matching shirts and Pam Viola, in a change from her regular spot as photographer, pushing young Charlie along on the trail. With finish times over the 5km course ranging from Darcy, the first finisher who regularly runs the course in a quick 20 minutes to tail walker Helen, a volunteer role that ensures everyone gets back safely to enjoy a post parkrun coffee who clocked a time of one hour and 27 minutes, parkrun really is for everyone. Walk, jog or run at whatever pace works best for you, join everyone at the café of the week for a catch up afterwards – it’s all about getting everyone out and about to start their weekend right. Thanks as always to parkrun volunteers this week, Glenn Wearne, Julia Groves, Helen Lughetto, Liz Radcliffe, Mark Lynch, Stacey Harriage, Libby Belton, Pam Pincini, Paula Calafiore, Glenn Wearne, Annie Holland.

All smiles: Participants were happy to be back at parkrun following the changes to lockdown restrictions in regional Victoria. photographs supplied

MOE galloper Long Arm earned a pass mark from trainer Peter Gelagotis following his first-up 11th at Flemington on Saturday. The Irish import, who holds nominations for both the Caulfield and Melbourne Cup, closed home well to finish 3 ½ lengths adrift of winner Floating Artist in the $130,000 Very Special Kids Pin and Win Plate (1700m). “Long Arm was a good return for his first-up run and naturally should come into his own over distance,” the stable reported on Saturday night. The two other Team Gelagotis runners at Flemington finished down the track in the TAB Long May We Play Plate (2500m). Serenade The Stars was second-last, beaten 13 ½ lengths and edged out stablemate Blandford Lad for that position by a nose. “Both (horses) …. are heading to low grade staying races in the near future which should suit better during this tough period,” the stable reported. The highlight of the meeting was the $1 million Makybe Diva Stakes (1600m) won by boom horse Incentivise. The Queensland product, who was transferred to the Peter Moody stable after a dominant winter carnival in the Sunshine State, produced a slashing performance in his debut appearance at Group 1 level. Incentivise ($3.90) rolled to the lead and evoked memories of the great Vo Rogue as he responded under pressure to stave off Mo’unga, with 2020 Cox Plate champion Sir Dragonet third.

Gorman lands Meadows win

GREYHOUNDS

TANJIL South trainer Kate Gorman engineered a boilover when Mirror Illusion won the TAB Grade 5 Final (525m) at The Meadows on Saturday night. Mirror Illusion ($18.30) pounced straight on speed from box eight and illustrated great tenacity after being challenged by Invictus Rising to win by a length. The daughter of Orson Allen stopped the clock in a good time of 29.87 seconds to claim the $6540 first-prize cheque. This success took Mirror Illusion’s career record to eight wins from 16 starts, four of which have come at The Meadows. Kennelmate Desert Flame finished secondlast, while fellow Gippsland chaser Do Good Davlin ran fifth for Hazelwood North trainer Wendy Neocleous. TRARALGON owner/trainer Steve Nagy enjoyed a winner at Sale on Friday night. Kisber ($5.20) scored a tough victory in the James Yeates Printing Maiden (440m). It was the first career success at start six for the son of Swagger, who had finished third at his previous four starts. NAMBROK trainer Lyn Smith proved the punters pal when odds-on favourite Finniss Flash lived up to expectations at Warragul on Thursday night. Finniss Flash started at $1.30 and withstood a plucky challenge from Morwell chaser Prada Gem to win the Top Run Images Mixed 6/7 (460m) by a 1 ¾ lengths. It was a strong showing for the former South Australian speedster on his Victorian debut, having headed across the border with a record of one win and six placings from 13 starts. Smith was not the only Central Gippslandbased trainer to enjoy success. Moe’s Pasqualino Romagnino was all smiles after Kiwi Billy ($25.40) won the third heat of the Grassroots Eastern Sprint (460m). In a bunched finish where less than half a length separated the top three placegetters, it was Kiwi Billy who hit the line best. The winning time of 26.36 seconds was the slowest of the four heats, with the quickest winner being Parzival (25.95 seconds). YINNAR South trainer Ben Joske’s smart chaser Persian Goddess produced a slashing display in the RSN Central Grade 5 (515m) at Sandown Park on Thursday. A daughter of Aston Dee Bee, Persian Goddess ($9.10) pounced straight to the lead from box three and packed too much punch late for a 1 ½ length win from Nihari Bale. Persian Goddess took her career record to 12 wins from 33 starts.

Back to the future at Newborough FOOTBALL

CRAIG Skinner has been appointed senior coach of Newborough Football-Netball Club for 2022. Skinner (pictured) returns to the Bulldogs having previously coached the club for three seasons, winning premierships in 1999 and 2000. More recently he coached juniors at Moe in the under 18 and under 16 age bracket. He was awarded the Victorian Australian Football Coaches Association Youth Coach of the Year in 2010 for his work with Newborough Junior Football Club. His son Alex was senior captain of Newborough this season. Skinner takes over from Peter Ainsworth, who has coached for the previous two seasons.

Ramayer appointed as coach of Lions NETBALL By LIAM DURKIN

MOE netballers will have a familiar face calling the shots next season, with Ramayer Gourley appointed coach of the Lions A Grade side. Gourley will make the transition from playing assistant coach to the top job, taking over from the departing Peter Moody. Moody leaves after spending four years at the helm, during which time Moe won a premiership (2018), made a preliminary final (2019) and claimed the minor premiership this season to go with an overall win-rate of 75 per cent. Gourley came to the Lions this season, in what was a huge coup for the club given her credentials and standing as one of the best players in the Gippsland League. The defender previously played for Traralgon, where she won no shortage of league awards, including grand final best on court honours twice and a place in the leagues team of the year four times. Adding to that, she also represented Vic Fury in the Australian Netball League. In taking on the role, Gourley said she was looking forward to what was ahead. “I’m very excited, I haven’t been an A Grade coach or head coach anywhere so I’m really keen,” she said. “I loved my first season here, we had a really good year and the girls were really lovely and welcoming … I really like the culture that they’ve built. “I think that’s really important to me to keep up the integrity of what we’re putting out there for the club.” With Moody indicating this would be his last season, Gourley said a transition plan had been in the works for virtually the entire 2021 season. “Pete and I discussed it pretty early on that it was an option (me coaching) and we’ve been touching base all through the season trying to prepare for it,” she said. “He knew he wanted to take a step back - he was travelling heaps.” The new coach said she would be looking to draw on her experiences playing under high profile coaches such as Kristy Birrell and Elissa Kent in helping the team further along. “I love taking drills that I’ve learnt in Melbourne and bringing them down here,” she said. “It is really rewarding for the girls once they get it.” Given the common football adage determines that those who played in the back pocket end up making the best coaches because they’ve seen the whole field, it will be interesting to see if the same applies in netball considering Gourley’s position in the defensive third. In preparing for season 2022, Gourley said she would be expecting her charges to play with what she described as “relentless intensity”. There might be an interesting authoritydynamic at Moe next season, with Ramayer set to coach her sister Taylin. The Lions new coach however said she didn’t expected there to be too much drama. “We’re pretty chill and I pretty much do it (coach her) all the time anyway,” she said laughingly. It will be a coaching couple at Moe, as Gourley’s partner Declan Keilty was recently appointed the Lions new senior football coach.

Decision day draws closer FOOTBALL/NETBALL By LIAM DURKIN

THIS coming Thursday will be D-Day for the Gippsland League. Should an announcement not be made by the state government by then allowing a return to play for Saturday, September 25, the 2021 season will be cancelled for senior and junior competitions. Time is running out for any such resemblance of a finals series to be played, as AFL Victoria’s COVID framework requires a 14-day training period once return to play is granted. Because of this, it looks like if there will in fact be any finals football in the Gippsland League, the only option is to have the top-two teams play each other for the title of premier. That option in itself calls into question the very concept of what would constitute a worthy premiership winner, with any such ‘victory’ unlikely to hold much significance in years to come, especially considering Gippsland League players have not even played in more than two months. While the league and clubs have been working under immense pressure with the rolling issue of lockdowns either being extended or lifted, there is a feeling among most players that the time has well and truly come to officially put a red line through the season for the simple reason that the majority of people don’t see any point in continuing. The league and nine of the 10 member clubs had previously committed to playing the last homeand-away round with restrictions in place for the weekend of August 21. All looked set in motion before disaster struck and community sport was halted on the Friday night beforehand. Had matches gone ahead that weekend, games would have been played in front of no crowds and players based in Melbourne would not have been able to travel. Junior teams in the Gippsland League got onto the park the week before, but their joy was shortlived as they were met with the same fate as their senior counterparts six days later. The league abandoned its final home-and-away round recently, meaning a compromised fixture as all teams were still one round short of playing each other once. Should grand finals be played, it will be a South Gippsland showdown in senior football between Leongatha and Wonthaggi. The Power are yet to win a title in the Gippsland League as a merged entity (Wonthaggi Blues

Decisions decisions: The Mid Gippsland Football-Netball League could call its season off when it meets tonight. photograph tom gannon and Wonthaggi Rovers combined in 2005), which presents a truly bizarre set of arrangements in which Wonthaggi might claim a maiden flag. If there happens to be an A Grade netball grand final, Moe and Leongatha will face off. The Lions could well become the first team in sporting history to play a grand final without a coach, as Moe coach Peter Moody is based in Melbourne. THE Gippsland League and Mid Gippsland Football-Netball League are the only two leagues left in Gippsland not to have abandoned their season. Mid Gippsland has previously said Saturday, October 2 is the cut-off date for a grand final. The MGFNL is meeting tonight to decide on its best course of action. CHRISTMAS might be coming early for junior footballers. Provided restrictions are further eased, the Central Gippsland Junior Football League has announced it will play a finals extravaganza starting this Friday. Semi-finals will be played between the top four

teams (first versus fourth, second versus third) on Friday, with the winners to progress to the grand final two days later. The CGJFL said this was the preferred option of member clubs. “This scenario gets the finals over and finalised in case of another lockdown and also gives families a chance to get away for the school holiday period,” it said in a statement. “If restrictions aren’t eased enough for this to happen next weekend then we will go for just grand final options where first plays second. This again was passed by all clubs with similar reasons in mind. “Our next option for this will be on Friday, September 24 (AFL Grand Final public holiday) and if restrictions are still not eased enough by then our absolute last chance to play a grand final would be on Sunday, October 3. “Hopefully this gives all our remaining participants clarity and although it won’t please everyone we were very keen to try and salvage something of the year if we could.”

Race for prized medal an open one FOOTBALL GIPPSLAND LEAGUE By LIAM DURKIN

WITH the regular season over in the Gippsland League, the awarding of best and fairest medals might become a point of interest for those involved. Although only 10 home-and-away games will count toward the voting, the Gippsland League has committed to acknowledging players efforts this season. Sale’s Shannen Lange looks to be a good show of winning the award, and has featured in the Magpies best players seven times this season. Lange has also topped the votes in the most valuable player award, which is decided upon by the coaches of the match in a 3,2,1 format. The midfielder secured 11 MVP votes this season, ahead of Traralgon’s Matt Northe and Drouin’s Ed Morris. Northe has had a terrific season for the Maroons, regularly collecting 30 or more touches a game and showing his ability to impact the scoreboard with 16 goals from his 10 games. On six occasions this year Northe has been in the top three best players listed for Traralgon, and he has also demonstrated his leadership skills standing in for injured skipper Dylan Loprese from Round 7 onwards. Kristian Jaksch appears to be Moe’s best chance of claiming the medal, and should attract votes in the games he kicked bags of eight against Leongatha and six against Bairnsdale. Given he kicked eight of his side’s 13 goals in a losing effort against Leongatha in Round 9, there will be genuine head shakes if he isn’t given the three votes for that performance. Jaksch, who slotted 36 goals in 10 games this season, has the JC Lawless Award wrapped up for the league’s leading goal kicker - the first Moe player to win the award since Matt Forys in 2002. Others expected to poll well are Wonthaggi brothers Jarryd and Jack Blair and fellow midfielder Aiden Lindsay, as well as Leongatha pair Aaron Heppell and Tom Marriott, for whom the award has become affectionately known as ‘Marriott’s Medal’. Parrots ruckman Ben Willis remains a smokey as for whatever reason, he always seems to place highly in the league vote count stakes.

Solid season: Moe’s Kristian Jaksch (right) already has the Gippsland League goal kicking sown up and is expected to poll well in the Trood Award and Rodda Medal. photograph tom gannon The reserves vote count will also carry some interest, with onlookers surely keeping an eye on the type of player who ends up winning. While it is said the Brownlow Medal has become a midfielder’s award, one could argue the Gippsland League reserves best and fairest has become a ruckman’s award. Recent winners have been James Heslop (Moe, 2018), Chris Rump (Leongatha, 2017), Macklin Raine (Maffra, 2015) and Will Joplin (Wonthaggi, 2013) - all ruckman. The Gippsland League senior best and fairest receives the Trood Award and Rodda Medal, named after former Sale player Victor Trood and Morwell’s Fred Rodda.

Trood, who played 41 games for University in the VFL, donated the award in 1928 and continued to do so for many years. He went on to become the inaugural president of the Latrobe Valley Football League (Gippsland League) in 1954, and was inducted as a life member of the league in 1959. Rodda tragically died from internal injuries in 1935, leading the then Central Gippsland Football League to rename its best and fairest award the Rodda Medal the following season. After the CGFL disbanded and the remaining clubs joined the LVFL, the names Trood and Rodda were enshrined onto the one award.

Four F our Quarters Quar ters

with Liam Durkin and Gregor Mactaggart

Four classic grand finals THIS week would have been Gippsland League grand final week. A grand final for any league is undoubtedly the biggest day on the football calendar, and those who have been to a decider in either the Gippsland, Mid Gippsland or North Gippsland league will attest to the carnival-like atmosphere as thousands of people converge to see the last game of the season. Everything is just bigger for a grand final. There’s the build-up during the week, the banners as the teams run out, and the emotion as the final siren is blown. With grand finals in mind, the Four Quarters team thought it would take a look at some of the great Gippsland grand finals in recent memory.

Euphoria: Traralgon players and supporters celebrate their miracle 2005 premiership. file photograph

1. Traralgon 2005.

IT was a result no one saw coming. Of the 20 Gippsland League senior premierships Traralgon has won, the 2005 victory is arguably its greatest. The Maroons have had better and more dominate teams before and since, but for a truly magical against the odds triumph, there can surely be nothing that compares to what they managed to pull off on September, 17 2005. Even beyond Traralgon it is one of the most famous grand final victories in Gippsland football history To understand the significance of the Maroons 2005 grand final win, one has to firstly appreciate what they were opposed to. Maffra had won the previous three premierships and by grand final day appeared a near certainty of writing themselves into the history books as the first Gippsland League team to win a quartet of flags. The signs could not have been more ominous. The Eagles went into the decider with a league record 45 consecutive wins under their belt, and had beaten Traralgon by 64, 51 and 81 points in their previous three encounters - the 81-point margin coming in the second semi-final just a fortnight earlier. In that game alone Maffra kicked 11 goals in the last quarter. Many believed the trophy engraver could have put the Eagles name on the cup there and then. Not since Phar Lap had there been a hotter favourite, and just like Phar Lap, Maffra was the best competitor by the length of the Flemington straight. The odds for the grand final pointed to an impossible Traralgon victory. But then, something happened it rained on the Friday night. Rain carried over to grand final day, and continued to fall throughout. Conditions may well have been best summed up in the Thirds match, as Sale defeated Maffra in a scoreline of 2.4 (16) to 0.2 (2). By the time the seniors started it was clear the game was going to be an old-school slog. Traralgon stayed with Maffra in the first quarter, before taking a handy nine point lead at the main break. With the sniff of an upset, the Maroons carried on in the second half and was 16 points ahead with one quarter to play. From there, Traralgon was able to fend off some nervy moments early in the last, before Dane McGennisken booted the sealer with five minutes remaining. A goal to Jarrod Zuehlke from the goal square courtesy of two 50

NGFNL history. The Blues were out to break a 36-year premiership drought, and after finishing the season on top of the ladder, went straight through to the decider by winning the second semi-final. Rosedale made use of a howling breeze heading toward the scoreboard end at the Traralgon Showgrounds in the first quarter of the grand final, and kept Churchill goal-less in the first half. Amazingly, the Cougars kicked 12 behinds before scoring a goal, but made some running in the third, and at three quarter time the margin was only 17 points, with Rosedale ahead 10.8 (68) to 6.15 (51). The Blues ultimately kicked away in the end to run out 58-point victors, 17.10 (112) to 6.18 (54). Such was the significance of Rosedale’s premiership win, some took it upon themselves to properly mark the occasion. Drivers entering Rosedale will still see ‘NGFL premiers for 2001’ written on the sign welcoming motorists into the town, while local baker Rex Sheehan even created a wood sculpture of winning coach Anthony Dessent. The creation resurfaced some time ago after many years in the wilderness.

The end result: a 23-point win to Traralgon. A result that shocked even the most diehard Maroons supporters.

THE year 2005 proved to be a season for the underdogs. As well as Traralgon in the Gippsland League, Morwell East overcame incredible odds to win the Mid Gippsland FootballNetball League premiership. The Hawks had only won two flags prior to 2005, with both coming one after the other in 1979 and 1980. Supporters and players were more than likely entertaining thoughts of ‘how many more?’ during the back-to-back celebrations, but little was anyone to know the wait they would endure before they again reached the premiership dais. Come 2005 Morwell East looked to be a good show, yet there was one thing standing in their way - Yinnar. The Magpies went through the regular season undefeated, and then accounted for Morwell East by 29 points in the second semi-final, although even that margin may have flattered them as Yinnar registered 30 scoring shots to 16. Grand final day however produced a different result, and with Danny Millar as coach, the Hawks put it all together on the big stage to win 11.5 (71) to 6.8 (44). Morwell East 300 gamer Brad Gibson remembered it fondly. “It was absolutely huge, it’s something I won’t forget,” he said. “After winning the prelim by 10 points to sneak in we had a pretty good day in the grand final. “You still see the blokes you played with every now and again,

it was a pretty special day for the club.” The 2005 premiership ignited some boom years for Morwell East, as the Hawks played in three more senior grand finals during the next five seasons. Gibson said this was his most enjoyable time. “It was a very successful period for the club, the seniors were probably unlucky to miss a couple through those times but it was probably the brightest patch for a while,” he said. “We had a lot of good players and there was exceptional depth back then, some of those players in the twos teams could have been playing senior footy but it was very tough to crack into the senior team in that four-five year period from 2005 to 2011.” The 2005 flag remains the Hawks last senior title to this day.

3. Rosedale 2001.

THE 2001 North Gippsland Football-Netball League grand final took on heightened emotions, but for reasons much bigger than football. Just four days before the grand final between Rosedale and Churchill, shockwaves reverberated around the world following the September 11 attacks. With the grand final paling in significance to what was happening overseas, Rosedale captain at the time Cameron Mayne said it was a surreal experience. “It went from football talk on the Tuesday night (at training) to ‘that’ talk,” he said. “It definitely made people think leading up to it. “We had a minute silence at the grand final; it put things in perspective a fair bit, to realise how lucky you are to be doing what we were doing.” As the teams stood shoulder-toshoulder, the national anthem and minute’s silence which followed is believed to be one of the most emotionally stirring moments in

IT is not often someone is celebrated for spoiling a going away party, but that was indeed the case for Stony Creek in 2009. The Lions ensured Wonthaggi Power didn’t leave the Alberton Football-Netball League with the premiership cup before crossing to the Gippsland League the following season. The timeline of events that led to the Power’s exit from the AFNL is a story for another day, but in a nutshell, it came about following the merger of Wonthaggi Rovers and Wonthaggi Blues in 2005. The merged entity initially competed in the AFNL, but was eventually ordered to move to the Gippsland League by the Victorian Country Football League as it was deemed to be too powerful to compete against clubs from smaller towns. Wonthaggi was given the 2009 season as its last in Alberton, and looked set to go out on a high after finishing the season on top to advance to a fifth successive grand final. By contrast, Stony Creek had taken the long way, winning three sudden death finals just to qualify - the first semi by only seven points against Yarram. Understandably, most pundits believed Wonthaggi would be too strong for little old Stony Creek. After all, the reason the Power was leaving was because they were ‘too good for Alberton’. Taking the role of David, the only favouritism Stony Creek had was that of sentimental favourites as they lined up for battle against Goliath. Yet in a day for the underdogs, the Lions produced a sterling performance to do its Lions moniker justice, winning 14.10 (94) to 11.14 (80). By all reports the noise at Foster that day was absolutely deafening. The win also secured Stony Creek’s first premiership since 1983. Did we get it right?

On the ball Express reporters Gregor Mactaggart and Liam Durkin run the rule over the past week in footy LD: Thursday is looking like D-Day for the Gippsland League. GM: I’m surprised it’s taken this long to be honest. I would have thought them and Mid Gippy would have made a call by now. LD: I would have thought so to. I read during the week Mid Gippy coaches said they were happy to play “anywhere at any time” even if it meant going as late as December which is remarkable. GM: The question is will it just be the top-two? I just wonder what those that finished third and fourth reckon or don’t they get a say? LD: I’m not too sure. Surely the majority of people are just well and truly over it. GM: Cricket season would usually be starting in just over a fortnight. Any news? LD: I’ve heard November 6 is the date most associations are aiming to start. GM: You have to appreciate the frustrations of footballers and netballers over the last two years. LD: It is amazing to think people in Gippsland and Mid Gippsland could be starting preseason before the current season has even technically finished. GM: Junior football a chance to return? LD: The kids will be thinking all their Christmases have come at once if they get the go-ahead for next weekend. GM: I hope they get on. The kids are the ones you really fell for. Let’s hope they get a chance and a finals series but again it is just a mess the whole lot. LD: Pivoting to the AFL now. GM: Zip from two, geez I’m going well. I must admit I didn’t see the Cats going as bad as they did. Melbourne were just outstanding. LD: I thought they were the Harlem Globetrotters in the third quarter. They could have walked on water that’s how well they played. GM: A great story on the cards. LD: Crazy how football goes full circle, Melbourne lost to that same team by nearly 200 points a decade ago. GM: And Stefan Martin played for Melbourne in that game and now he is at the Bulldogs. They just shell-shocked Port Adelaide. Two remarkable efforts that now set up a superb grand final. LD: I know the Dogs broke the drought a few years ago but both these clubs have loyal supporters who haven’t had a lot to cheer about so it will make for compulsive viewing. GM: Who you going for? LD: I’ll be going for Melbourne just for the sentimentality. GM: The Dogs for me ... just. Before their blip I was bullish about them, pardon the pun, but I think that edge in grand final experience might help them. LD: Surely we’re feeling for Nathan Jones? GM: There’s always tough stories around grand final time. I can’t think of one greater than Nathan Jones, a bloke who has given his heart and soul to the Dees. But at the end of the day I think there would be nobody happier if Melbourne win it than him. LD: If Melbourne win I’d like to see a Luke Beveridge-Bob Murphy moment with Simon Goodwin handing a medal to Nathan Jones at some point.

A true gentleman and for a few years a great neighbour. - Robert Mayo “He was a big part of the fabric of the club … admired by everyone, staff, parents, the opposition,” he said. “He was one of those guys who always had a kind word, he was approachable and very professional in his role. Just a smile and a nod of the head when you said g’day. “People really loved him, he was very

witty and funny as well. A bit of a master of one-liners. “He’ll be sorely missed. There are thousands of people across Gippsland who know and respect who Stan Morgan is and was.” His service to local sport continued away from football, as he stood as a cricket umpire for many seasons, winning the John Mussared Medal for Central Gippsland Cricket Association Umpire of the Year in 2004-05. The Morwell FNC is in the process of having a lasting tribute to Morgan’s contribution to the club formally and properly created in the near future. Yellow and black extended beyond Morwell for Morgan, as he was a passionate Richmond supporter and enjoyed the last few years immensely. He died following a battle with pulmonary fibrosis age 74. He is survived by wife Pauline and daughters Vanessa and Kara.  “For 40 years he displayed a club first mentality, was a thorough gentleman, as honest as the day is long and never sought the limelight or recognition.” - Morwell FNC football operations and close family friend Michael Henderson “He was a big part of the fabric of the club … admired by everyone, staff, parents, the opposition, “There are thousands of people across Gippsland who know and respect who Stan Morgan is and was.” - Gippsland Power stalwart Peter Francis

Barrie re-appointed at YYN FOOTBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND

Going again: Barrie Burnett will coach Yallourn Yallourn North in 2022. file photograph

YALLOURN Yallourn North Football-Netball Club has re-signed senior coach Barrie Burnett for 2022. Burnett will enter his fifth season at the helm, and second in the North Gippsland FootballNetball League after YYN made the move from the Mid Gippsland Football-Netball League last year. Although the Jets ended the abandoned NGFNL season in second position on the ladder, Burnett said the side would be taking nothing for granted as they prepared for next year. “I hate to use the old cliche, but we have some unfinished business in 2022,” he said. “We were really starting to adapt to the North

Gippy conditions and finally heading to a full list come finals this year, but now like all other clubs we start from scratch in 2022. “Our list is the right mix of young talented and experienced guys, we have put a substantial effort in developing our younger guys and now with 20 to 30 senior games under their belts they are key to our success. “I’m just looking forward to another year at this great club.” Burnett currently boasts a coaching record of 40 wins from 49 games. A YYN legend, he guided the club to a long awaited senior premiership in 2019 and also broke the senior games record earlier this year. Fellow club stalwart Owen Budge will again coach the reserves.

MORWELL Football-Netball Club icon Stan Morgan died last week. Morgan is being remembered as a true gentleman and the greatest volunteer in the club’s history. While the term ‘legend’ is tossed around rather loosely in local sport, there can be no questioning Morgan is befitting of the title given his service to the Tigers. After playing 77 games in the yellow and black between 1964 and 1969, Morgan turned to administration, where he was to make his mark across five decades. A truly extraordinary length of service started in 1980 and continued until this year. Fulfilling virtually every role at the club, Morgan served as secretary from 1980 to 1996, treasurer (1986 and 1988), vice president (1999-2001) and on the committee for all the years in-between. As well as all that, he also ran the club’s bingo for 22 years - something for which he will possibly be best remembered. Under Morgan’s leadership, the Morwell FNC bingo raised an estimated $1.2 million for the club. Morwell FNC football operations and close family friend Michael Henderson said Morgan’s legacy was ensured. “Stan’s contribution to the Morwell FNC is immeasurable,” he said. “The club will still be benefiting from his efforts for decades to come. “He can only be described as a club legend. “For 40 years he displayed a club first mentality, was a thorough gentleman, as honest as the day is long and never sought the limelight or recognition. “You could always trust Stan. You knew he had the club’s best interests at heart. He always wanted to do what was best for the club. “He’s without doubt the greatest volunteer in the club’s history and his contribution will never be surpassed.” Morwell won seven senior premierships during Morgan’s tenure, occasions which brought him great joy. Regarded as one of the best sporting administrators in country Victoria, he was inducted as a life member of Morwell FNC in 1987 and of the Gippsland League in 1996. A man of great humility, he responded to the creation of the Morgan-Stanistreet Cup, played for between Morwell and Traralgon, by personally seeking to have his name removed and instead giving the honour to fellow Tiger legend Brett Stanistreet. He took his skills literally next door to Gippsland Power in 2012, becoming secretary and team manager. Gippsland Power stalwart Peter Francis said Morgan was a terrific asset to the organisation. “He was absolutely outstanding, he had a wealth of knowledge and a good understanding of the wider Gippsland football landscape as well,” he said. “He was that wise and considered head that I could discuss issues with. We worked really closely and effectively together. “I was more than happy to have him on board, he was the perfect fit for us.” While not only a great administrator, Francis said Morgan was an equally great person.
