Bite sized for Halloween health A HEALTHY Halloween tradition is kicking off in Keysborough.

Intrapac and the Somerfield Social Club will hand out apples to guests at the Somerfield open air Halloween party to promote healthy eating.

The event will run from 5.30pm to sunset on Friday 31 October at the Perry Road housing estate’s pirate adventure playground.

There’ll be apple bobbing, fancy dress and scary monster dance competitions, a Halloween tattoo station, free stickers and more.

■ Fact finding trip to investigate Asian developer's plans for mega fun park...

Chinese cheer BANGHOLME’S paddocks could be home to a giant theme park under a proposal from a China-based developer.

Greater Dandenong Mayor Jim Memeti said Chongqing Mexin (Group) Industry Pty Ltd could possibly create either a Chinese or Gold Coast-type theme park.

“We’re really excited about securing something like this,” Cr Memeti said.

The company has proposed building the theme park within a 43-hectare

paddock at 616 Frankston-Dandenong Road.

The site is in a green-wedge zone which is close to Eastlink.

Cr Memeti and the council’s Greater Dandenong Business group manager Paul Kearsley will visit the city of Chongqing on 23 October as part of a council-paid business trip to a Chinese trade fair this month.

Mr Kearsley said they would visit several factories as well as the proponent’s Changjiang Scenic Spot theme park.

“The purpose of this part of the trip to China is to visit the theme park to see its size, type of operation etc... to get an idea of what might be proposed for the site on Frankston-Dandenong Road,” Mr Kearsley said.

Mr Kearsley said Chongqing Mexin’s owner had indicated he could provide government and chamber of commerce contacts in the city - which may provide opportunities for Greater Dandenong businesses.

In August, a $500 million Chinese theme park was unveiled by a differ-

ent consortium for a 15-hectare site in Wyong shire, NSW. Talked up as a tourist attraction to rival the Sydney Opera House, the Chappypie China Time theme park is expected to open in stages from 2016 and attract a growing Chinese tourism market.

Mr Kearsley said it couldn’t be assumed that the Bangholme proposal would be similar in style.

“I’ll be going (to Chongqing) with an open mind, looking to see if the park fits in from a business point of

view – its business model, what jobs it might create, whether it would include a hotel and conference centre.

“We want to see if, as an investment, it’s a good thing for Dandenong.”

Grant Hailes, who is managing director of development consultants Beveridge Williams, said preliminary investigations into potential markets were in train to determine the “right sort” of development for the site.

Woman gives chase to phone muggers THIEVES pushed a 20-year-old woman to the ground and stole her mobile phone as she walked home in Springvale.

Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Senior Constable Kane Taylor said she was outside Killster College on Springvale Road about 6.10pm on 5 October when the men approached, pushed her down and grabbed her mobile phone from inside her jacket as she lay on the ground.

She chased them for about 300 metres as they ran south along Springvale Road, turned left into Ann Street and turned right into Billing Street.

They’re both described as African and about 20 years old. One was thin and about 180 centimetres tall, and was wearing a white T-shirt, black shorts, white baseball cap, a backpack, and headphones around his neck.

The other was about 165cm tall and wearing a black T-shirt.

Sen Const Taylor said the woman ran to a friend’s house nearby then reported the crime to Springvale Police Station.

“Police patrolled the area but didn’t find anyone,” he said.

He appealed for witnesses to call Greater Dandenong CIU on 9767 7487.

Knife raider strikes Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS

Student in fast lane

By CASEY NEILL A KEYSBOROUGH student has overcome family tragedy to leave school with a 97.25 ATAR - and a shiny new car.

Sena Kocoglu’s younger brother Abdullah died in 2011 following a fire that also left his twin Omar with severe burns.

Last Monday, 6 October, the 18-year-old drove home to Hampton Park from Mt Hira College in a black Suzuki Swift.

The school’s business manager Nadir Yildiz last year suggested the board offer a car to any student who scored over 95 in their VCE. “I thought it would encourage the students, because we are a new school, to get better results,” he said.

Sena was the first to receive the reward, from Booran Suzuki in Dandenong.

“It’s surreal. It’s amazing,” she said. “The school doing this... I feel like the school just keeps wiping away the problems I have at every stage in my life.

“I wasn’t expecting to be able to get a car.”

Sena - who moved up from Grade 5 to Year 7 - is now studying psychology at the University of Melbourne.

“I’d like to be a psychologist. I’d like to venture out into business as well,” she said.

“Business was my favourite subject at school and the only one I got a perfect score in.”

The 2013 Mt Hira school captain when receiving her car keys told current students that her results were worth her hours of study, and urged them to study every chance they got.

“You can be comfortable knowing that you did your very best,”

she said. Principal Pat Gay said Sena was a kid “that really deserves something extra”.

“The past couple of years have been very traumatic for the family,” she said.

Abdullah died in the Royal Children’s Hospital on 24 April 2011 from complications following a fire in his family’s garage on 14 February.

Coroner Kim Parkinson determined Abdullah had lit the fire while playing with matches, and described the incident as a very tragic event that had forever touched many people.

“Many of the family’s neighbours and bystanders responded immediately and bravely to a shocking situation where the little boys had suffered dreadful injuries,” he said.

Sena said the tragedy “took a massive toll on me and my family”.

“It was hard to push through it,” she said.

“But when you come to a school like this and you’ve got support from the board members and all the teachers here - and my parents and my friends - it was easier than it would have been if I was at any other school.

“It was tough but the school catered to me a lot.

“The teachers helped me catch up with everything, and whenever I needed to take a day off were fine with it.

“That wasn’t an extra stress.

“The school was like an extra family. I grew up here.”

Omar, now seven, and their sister Bucu, 16, are current Mt Hira students.

“They already have that same family around them,” Sena said.

A THIEF armed with a kitchen knife terrified diners when he raided Keysborough McDonald’s.

Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Senior Constable Kane Taylor said the man entered the store, on the corner of Perry and Cheltenham roads, about 9.45pm on 4 October.

He covered his face with a T-shirt, demanded cash from staff, and fled the scene with a small amount of money.

Sen Const Taylor said the store was quite busy and customers included several children.

“It’s an absolutely horrible crime,” he said.

He is looking for witnesses who saw where the man ran to, and the driver of a light-coloured car who slammed on their brakes to avoid hitting him as he ran across Perry Road.

“We are very, very keen to identify who was driving that car,” Sen Const Taylor said.

Call the Embona taskforce on 8558 8638 with any information.

Man faces deportation threat after assault conviction A MAN may be under risk of deportation after being found guilty of a domestic assault against his wife’s friend and of breaching an intervention order.

In Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last Thursday, David Musa was ordered to undergo an assessment for a community corrections

order prior to final sentencing tomorrow (Tuesday).

Musa was acquitted of a charge of assaulting his wife at a party in a Dandenong flat about 2am on 15 June after his wife declined to give evidence in court.

However, magistrate Jack

Vandersteen found the accused guilty of assaulting the wife’s friend at the same party.

The friend claimed in court on 22 September that she couldn’t remember details of the alleged assaults outlined in her police statement because she was drunk.

The court was told Musa had been previously convicted for a domestic assault on his wife.

Polish passion for fresh food EAT LOCAL, DINE GLOBAL

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS THERE is good reason why there are few traditional Polish restaurants in Melbourne - because it’s such hard work.

Or as Kluska proprietor Barbara Szwed said - it’s “a bugger to cook because it has to be fresh”.

“You can’t reheat the food - my Polish customers will know.”

Each day Ms Szwed buys her quality ingredients fresh and locally - meats from Dandenong butcher Marmara Halal Meats and veggies from Dandenong Market.

From those goods, the kitchen laboriously produces hand-made delicacies such as white sausages, dumplings (pierogi and pyzy), potato cakes and sauerkraut.

Ms Szwed said the key to a good dumpling was a soft dough, with a quality cheese or meat filling (or farsz).

One of the most popular dishes is a tender duck leg topped with apple sauce, with a touch of carrot dip on the side.

Adding to the authenticity, there’s dried wild mushrooms imported from her homeland and a range of vodkas and Polish beers.

The recipes are little changed from what she learnt from her mother in the north-west Polish city of Zlocieniec.

The exception is her self-taught and certified gluten-free dumplings.

Her childhood memories include pointing at Australia on a map.

“It was very exotic for us.”

Ms Szwed and her husband arrived in Melbourne 24 years ago and settled in Noble Park and then Lynbrook.

A trained accountant, she learnt English while working in factories and nursing homes.

“This is time for me,” she said of her decision to open Kluska four years ago.

It’s a consuming career that suits the self-described “energetic peopleperson”.

“I just had to be passionate because

Photos snap guards GREATER Dandenong Council is investigating the alleged harassment of a photographer taking pictures of its civic centre in Dandenong.

Sasha Colbert was taking photographs as part of a portfolio of “interesting” architecture on 28 October when a “security man” allegedly came out of the building and told her it was illegal to take pictures.

According to her husband Bernard, the man started to “harass” her when she moved to a different loca-

tion to take photographs.

“I noticed that his manner was very aggressive and he attempted to physically intimidate Sasha.

“He started demanding her name and address.”

Mr Colbert said the man appeared to be from the “security detail” and was dressed in a white button-up shirt and black jeans and was about 165 centimetres tall.

Mr Colbert said he had a “proximity pass” but that he refused to show his identification.

The man asked Mr Colbert into

what he said was his office inside the building and gave him a phone to speak to his supervisor 'Chester'.

“Chester repeated the claim about requiring permission, and... that the increase of security meant all photography of government buildings was prohibited.

“I thought get off the grass!”

In a letter to Mr Colbert, Greater Dandenong Council's acting chief executive Mark Doubleday stated there was “no apparent limitation, at least that, as a council, we are aware of, regarding the taking of photo-

graphs of the civic centre”.

“I would offer a view that as there is increased attention on security measures across Australia as a result of the counter-terrorism alert, there is a degree of concern when public buildings such as the civic centre or others are photographed.

“However, this does not excuse any inappropriate communication and these are matters that we will follow up internally.”

Last week, Mr Doubleday told the Journal that no council officers were involved in the incident.

BOOK cubbies are springing up in Springvale to get kids reading and books into homes.

The initiative started with a book swap last Wednesday at the Springvale Rise Primary School heights campus community hub.

“We are asking people to bring old books or magazines they no longer want to swap for another book or magazine,” hub leader Melanie Mumford said.

“We also have some donated books and magazines for people who don’t have a book to bring.

“We are establishing book cubbies - boxes of books out in the community that people can read, borrow, swap or just take home and keep.”

Contact Ms Mumford at Springvale Rise Primary School on 9546 3799 to get involved.

Change in the wind

By CASEY NEILL MORE than 130 people came together in Dandenong last Wednesday to raise awareness of mental illness and disability.

Support group Ermha held the Mental Health Week (5 to 11 October) event in Dandenong Park’s Greg Dickson Pavilion in the hope of reducing - and over time eliminating - the stigma around mental health issues.

The community based organisation’s marketing and communications officer Georgia Oldis said the event involved a live band.

“We even had one of the people supported by Ermha get up and sing a couple of songs,” she said.

“This is fantastic for us to see and would have taken a lot of confidence and courage.”

Ms Oldis said roving performer The Amazing Hazel entertained guests with juggling, balloon hats and animals, Rebecca painted guests’ faces, and there was a picnic lunch provided.

The event’s highlight was kite flying, including Kites 4 Kids flying jumbo kites up to four metres long.

“The reason we choose kite flying is because, in the mental health community, KITE stands for knowledge, inclusion, tolerance and empowerment,” Ms Oldis said.

“Also, kite flying is cultural and linguistically diverse and quite symbolic in other cultures.

“We hope that people with mental illness and disability feel supported in their recovery and feel connected to the community. Most importantly, we hope they had fun!”

Attacked man found wandering A TONGAN man who’d been struck over the head with a wine bottle has been found wandering around Keysborough.

Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Senior Constable Kane Taylor said passersby saw the 39-year-old on Chandler Road near Cheltenham Road about 7.20pm on 5 October.

He appeared to have head injuries and a broken right wrist, so they took him to a nearby service station and called an ambulance.

Sen Const Taylor said the man was taken to Dandenong Hospital for treatment and indicated someone had smashed a wine bottle on the top of his head.

“He can’t speak English. We used an interpreter, but he hasn’t shed much light on what’s happened,” he said.

Sen Const Taylor appealed for any witnesses to call Greater Dandenong CIU on 9767 7487.

Cash boost aims to bring safety to danger junction POTTER Street in Dandenong will receive a $756,000 safety boost.

South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Gordon Rich-Phillips announced the State Government Safer Road Infrastructure Program (SRIP) funding for the street’s intersection with Princes Highway East.

“The project is aimed at

reducing the number of accidents at the site by banning the right-turn movement from Potter Street to Princes Highway East,” he said.

“Of the eight crashes we have seen at or near this intersection in the five years to December 2013, five crashes involved cars turning right from Potter Street and cars travelling on Princes High-

way East. Two of those resulted in serious injuries.”

On the Dandenong Journal Facebook page, Brad Woodford said it was a “fantastic decision”.

“To be frank, it’s not the right turn itself that is the problem, but the sheer lack of competence of the drivers trying to execute them,” he said.

“So it’s best for everybody’s safety to simply ban them.”

The ban would include installing signs, pavement markings, traffic islands and modifications to the intersection’s layout.

A short-turn lane along Potter Street will also be provided to ease traffic into the service station and to avoid

vehicles queuing onto Princes Highway East.

Work on the project will start late this year and is due for completion early next year.

Do you think the project will improve safety? Email journal@starnewsgroup. com.au or visit www.facebook.com/DandenongJournal.

A DANDENONG South man, aged 64, suffered life-threatening injuries during an argument outside his home.

Police have arrested and charged two men aged in their late 20s over the alleged assault, which occurred about 8pm on 29 September.

Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Senior Constable Kane Taylor said the attackers and victim knew each other.

He said the victim was knocked unconscious and received “fairly substantial injuries” that required surgery.

“There’s an indication there was a weapon used,” he said.

Sen Const Taylor said the injuries were life-threatening initially but his condition had improved and he was recovering in hospital.

PSOs facing assault brunt

By CASEY NEILL PROTECTIVE services officers (PSOs) are assaulted at Dandenong Railway Station more frequently than at any other location in Victoria.

Dandenong also ranks third across the public transport network for overall crime.

But Transit Inspector Graham Higginbotham said PSOs and police were at risk every time they went to work.

“There are no issues with recruiting PSOs to work in Dandenong,” he said.

“PSOs complete a 12-week training program that includes operational safety and tactics training.

“The training prepares them to safely work in a dynamic environment with a high level of unpredictability.”

Insp Higginbotham said at least two PSOs were deployed together.

“The number of PSOs and police stationed at Dandenong each evening is based on need,” he said.

“We use our intelligence to determine where and when we place our police across the public transport system, right down to the most at-risk time, day of the week and locations where crimes do and may occur.”

He said there had been a reduction in serious crime at railway stations since PSOs hit

However, there had been an increase in overall crime.

“We believe that a lot of this increase is due to the work that PSOs are doing,” he said.

“We believe that PSOs will continue to detect and deter crime.”

Insp Higginbotham said that, anecdotally, the most common crimes PSOs detected at railway stations were graffiti, theft from motor vehicles and assault.

Insp Higginbotham said in

one case a victim had their credit card stolen in a robbery in the Dandenong CBD on 11 August.

“Less than 30 minutes later, PSOs working at the Dandenong Railway Station observed three males matching the description of the offenders involved in the robbery and arrested them before they could commit any further offences,” he said.

“The offenders were handed over to local police who charged them with robbery related offences.”

High Pressure Burners LP Gas

Big Stock Pot Burners

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS EAST West Link, Melbourne Metro Rail Tunnel and Port of Hastings may be the big-ticket issues in November’s state election but Greater Dandenong wants to bring the contest of ideas closer to home.

The council’s election wishlist calls attention to Keysborough bus stops without services, Noble Park’s three traffic-stalling level crossings and the state’s only hazardouswaste dump near Lyndhurst’s encroaching residences and businesses.

Candidates in eight state electorates will be surveyed by the council on these issues and others including more support for material aid agencies, reducing poker machines in Greater Dandenong, more resources to combat family violence, alcohol abuse and youth unemployment.

The council’s acting chief executive Mark Doubleday said its request for the immediate closure of the Lyndhurst landfill is not supported by the ALP or the Liberal Party.

The need for an alternative site to house the state’s most toxic waste and to pen a policy on hazardous waste has been put in the “too-hard basket” by both parties, Mr Doubleday said.

Mayor Jim Memeti said a “thorough” 2007 state report found that Nowingi, 50 kilometres south of Mildura, was the best site.

“We say both sides of Parliament need to go back to that report.

“Meanwhile we’ve got places being built closer to the (Lyndhurst) landfill.”

On the other hand, there is bipartisan support for level crossing removals but the council will press for the elimination of the boom gates at Corrigan, Chandler and Heatherton roads

COMMUNITY ACTION FORUM

THURSDAY NOVEMBER 13, 2014 – 11.00am–3.00pm Balla Balla Community Centre – 65 Berwick Cranbourne Road, Cranbourne East

Councillor Matthew Kirwan at a Keysborough bus stop that fails to attract a bus service. 126354 within three years. Mr Doubleday said the ALP and Coalition had both shown “a lot of sympathy” for the knock-on effect that the closure of the automotive industry was having on south-east manufacturers.

The council is seeking a $325,000 fund to help 20-30 “financially distressed” southeast manufacturers to diversify and branch out beyond the auto sector.

The council’s wishlist makes passing mention of its support

for an expanded Port of Hastings as an economic boost to the region but there is no mention of the proposed East West Link toll-road.

“We’re not saying they’re not important but they’ve got daily coverage,” Mr Doubleday said.

“Our focus is on the southeast region and what’s going to make a difference here.”

“Police patrols around those areas will be increasing in order to deter and prosecute any people found participating in any hoon activity,” he said.

“With the warmer weather coming on there’s probably

been a bit more activity. We’re trying to get the message out as early as we can that we’re aware of the activity and we’re trying to put in as many resources as we can to deter hoons.”

Partners in Recovery would like to invite all community members (especially mental health consumers and carers) living in Casey, Cardinia and Greater Dandenong to a community action forum.

THE public will be given a more audible voice at council meetings under a proposal by Greater Dandenong councillor Sean O’Reilly.

Cr O’Reilly has called for a change to local laws to allow the public to ask their questions directly at council meetings.

He said the proposal wouldn’t “open the floodgates to spurious or vexatious questions” but allow the public to engage more “face-to-face” with the council.

“The public are not a ’pack of hyenas’ wanting to tear the council apart with questions. Many times they just want information on how council is spending their rates” Cr O’Reilly conceded there would need to be some “moderation” to stop residents asking repetitive questions “designed to wear down the council’s resolve”.

Under current local laws, the public may write questions, which are read aloud by the council’s chief executive at the meeting.

Bomb threat patient jailed

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN who threatened to bomb a Greater Dandenong community mental health service has been remanded in prison partly because mental health services refuse to deal with him.

In Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last Monday, Luke Hunn, 33, pleaded not guilty to phoning the service on 20 August to say he was not happy with his treatment and that the clinic would be blown up by a bomb.

His lawyer Bill Grimshaw told the court that Hunn, who suffers from schizophrenia, was willing to plead guilty to damaging a community services building’s roller-shutter and smashing a side door window

in Cleeland Street, Dandenong, on 11 September.

On that day, police alleged an “irritable and aggressive” Hunn was observed outside the building complaining about his treatment.

A number of police were needed to arrest Hunn who was taken to Dandenong Hospital for psychiatric assessment and discharged.

Hunn, who said he was homeless at the time, has since been remanded in custody at the Melbourne Assessment Prison’s acute assessment unit.

Mr Grimshaw said he had contacted the MAP for Hunn to be released in order for him to to be admitted as an involuntary patient at Dandenong Hospital.

“I think he should be in the hands of the mental health system rather than the prison system.

“Unfortunately, it seems a lot of his offending is against staff members at a local community health service, which is why they don’t want to engage with him.”

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Hunn was “clearly unwell” but the magistrate had no confidence that Dandenong Hospital would admit him. “(Police) took him to Dandenong Hospital and then (the hospital) let him go. What’s changed?”

The case was adjourned for a contest mention tomorrow (Tuesday).

Understanding your mortgage costs Parking is a long term headache The difference between a mortgage and most other financial products is that the mortgage is designed to be long-term. With regular repayment schedules set at 30 years, borrowers repay very large sums on a monthly or fortnightly basis.

Because of this large, regular repayment, Australians follow the value of their home and are hawkish about interest rates, which leads to mortgage refinancing as borrowers seek lower interest rates and try to use the equity in their home.

But an aspect of mortgages that doesn’t get much attention is fees and costs. Yet this is an area where with a bit of homework and a willingness to bargain, people can save money and get ahead.

The first type of mortgage cost to look at is application fees. With a standard variable rate mortgage, lenders charge anywhere from $300 to $600. If you’re paying in the upper reaches of this range, you should absolutely be asking your lender to waive or reduce the fee.

Big banks and well-known lenders have an application fee that covers valuation fees and document preparation charges. But when you get down to small lenders – especially those specialising in non-conforming loans – you often see three or four separate charges that could tally to between $700 and $900. Some of these charges might be able to be challenged.

LMI, or lenders mortgage insurance, is typically charged at a rate set by a financial insurer

for loans in which the borrower has less than 20 per cent equity. But many mortgage companies attempt to add a solicitor’s preparation fee on top of the LMI, and this should also be queried. Why are you paying for your own solicitor and for their solicitor?

If you want to take some of the fees and costs out of your mortgage you should look at what lenders call ‘packages’. With a package, the lender will incentivise you to use their other financial products (usually at least one credit card and one transaction account) by charging a flat annual fee for the mortgage, credit card and transaction account.

The best packages may charge you $350 a year for all your fees, but they won’t charge you for using another bank’s ATM and they won’t penalize you for the number of transactions per month.

When you add up monthly charges, ATM fees, credit card annual fees and mortgage fees, these packages generally save you money. Just watch out for the packages where the variable interest rate is higher than the standard product. And don’t get lured into a package if you have no use for the other products.

Lastly, look closely at the costs of refinancing: if a lender wants your business, you shouldn’t have to pay an application fee.

So when it comes to mortgage fees, be informed, be prepared to bargain and if you’re in doubt, ring Yellow Brick Road Dandenong to discuss.

TRADERS whose staff have been stung by a stream of parking tickets are calling for more long-term parking options in central Noble Park.

About 200 staff and business owners, particularly in the Leonard Avenue precinct, have signed a petition over the issue.

Some of them have also signed their support for a designated worker car park or a permit parking system.

Optometrist Adrian Bell said staff used to park in an all-day council-run car park in Leonard Avenue up until six months ago.

However, a four-hour limit was introduced after the spaces became cluttered with rail commuters’ cars.

“How do you expect us to run a business if staff have to move their cars all day long?

“I’ve lost a staff member who left after she got fined. I don’t want to lose another one.”

The nearest long-stay spots to Leonard Avenue are either in the railway car park, which is invariably full during the day, or in residential streets as close as 200 metres to the south.

Mr Bell said workers were afraid to walk the unlit streets to their cars at night.

“A lot of people park up there catching trains. I’ve had to walk in as far as 500 metres.”

Councillor Roz Blades said developments with insufficient on-site parking were causing problems.

Traders Susan Waller, Ashleigh Waller, Adrian Bell and Orville Dsa are among 200 petitioners who want closer, safe worker car parks in Noble Park. 128712 The pressure is set to rise with a four-storey apartment building being built on the corner of Buckley and Noble streets and a 105-apartment proposal on the corner of Noble Street and Leonard Avenue which was approved by the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal last year.

In a letter to traders last Monday, Greater Dandenong Council’s transport leader Daniel Przychodzki stated there were “numerous” long term parking spaces within a “reasonable” walking distance up to 800 metres away.

Mr Przychodzki stated that the issue may be more about

“public perception of personal safety” than a parking issue.

Douglas Street streetscape works, a public-area CCTV system and appropriate surrounding area street lights might improve “feelings of personal safety”, he stated.

Engineering services director Julie Reid said there was currently no need for additional multi-deck car parking in the area.

She said about 20-30 per cent of parking spaces were empty in the activity centre “even in peak periods”.

A DANDENONG magistrate gave a would-be advocate short shrift last week.

With his mate in the dock, the man positioned himself to give no-doubt well-meaning advice to the defence lawyer.

“Who is that person?” the magistrate inquired.

Up rose the man, who started with his case for the defence: “The reason why...”

But the magistrate cut him short and ordered him out of the court: “If he’s a friend, he’s not doing (the accused) any favours,” he told the defence lawyer.

When I irst joined Corrections Victoria, I was of the belief that I would be entering a hostile environment every day, but that’s actually not the case. That’s not to say that you don’t have your issues from day to day. It’s very important to listen and observe, demonstrate good judgement, and have a sense of humour. It has become a very culturally diverse workplace, and I just love working in this job with a great bunch of people.

Aboriginal and/or Torres Strait Islander people are strongly encouraged to apply.

THE Journal spotted this sticker on a car on Heatherton Road last week and there’s no doubting residents’ passion about stopping high density housing.

But Dandenong Council hasn’t existed for 20 years - it amalgamated with Springvale to form the City of Greater Dandenong in December 1994.

Remembering that the devil’s in the detail might help the cause.

ANTI-ISLAM party Rise Up Australia was on the hunt for burqa-wearing women in Dandenong’s Palm Plaza last Wednesday.

The plan was to “lovingly and respectfully” ask these women if they would show their face in public, according to party leader and Catch the Fire Ministries pastor Daniel Nalliah.

The party faithful didn’t find anyone in the attire but were themselves confronted by two feisty Wilderness Society collectors, who told the 25-strong gathering to move on.

“We paid for a permit to come here and you’re impeding our work,” one informed Mr Nalliah, who then shuffled his troupe a little to the west.

HOME MAKES A BIG STATEMENT | 18 MAYFIELD DRIVE, KEYSBOROUGH THIS former Henley display home successfully combines high-end, luxurious elegance with a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Six years ago, Henley built Brightonlevel quality and scale into this sumptuously appointed residence, and it’s construction cost at that time was over $900,000. It is 52.75 squares, excluding the alfresco/pergola.

From the moment you step into the lobby, you realise you are in a very luxurious space. Rich wood panelling and large mirrors welcome you. As does space aplenty.

An elegant open study with extensive built-ins is following by one of the largest and most striking formal living areas you will have seen. Beyond the guest powder room is the vast family precinct comprising large, casual dining and living spaces anchored around the most stunning of kitchens. Double ovens, wide, stainlesssteel and stone benches, butler’s pantry and more.

A beautiful, timber-panelled alfresco is directly off the living area and accessed through a slide away wall of doors.

Upstairs are four bedrooms and a further living/media room for relaxing and watching movies.

The master suite is a true six-star experience with the best ensuite bathroom the agent has seen and a bedroom-sized dressing room and private balcony.

Another bedroom has its own private bathroom, and there is a third bathroom servicing the other two bedrooms.

The home is fully air-conditioned throughout and comes with a sumptuous collection of high-end light fittings and wall decorations.

Perfectly located close to Haileybury College, bus and nearby to all sought-after amenities, this is a stunning yet practical premium home for those who love space, tasteful luxury and being spoilt every day.

Go for a nice drive, on a nice day to find a nice spot on a gently undulating hill with a must have panoramic bay view approximately one and a quarter hours from Melbourne.

Coronet Bay is one of the very few places that qualifies. The Pakenham-Koo Wee Rup bypass is on schedule to be completed which will shorten the travel time making this 50 acre site at 386 Agar Road in easy commuting distance to Melbourne.

Also going the other way is Phillip Island that is famous for its beautiful long sandy beaches and surfing, the motor bike Grand Prix, the Holden/ Ford car races, the super bikes, the vintage and classic cars, the Bass Wooolamai Picnic Country horse races, the international restaurants and bars and the wild coastal safe walking, bike and horse riding tracks and trails.

Just metres down Cutty Sark Road is the well stocked local shop with deli, bait, fuel and liquor licence almost opposite the very safe, sheltered sandy swimming beach with small boat launching ramp where fish are still plentiful. All of the above are great points for the developer who wants to build a road etc, and develop approximately 64 half acre blocks and make some real money.

It’s a smashing site with stunning blue bay views to Phillip Island, French Island and Hastings with loads of potential.

It has lovely large magnificent feature trees, a visual experience and environment on three or four very special allotments which will bring a premium price as they have privacy and bay views.

At dawn the rising sun shines directly on to the San Remo/Phillip Island bridge and almost lights it up some mornings and the sunsets in the evening are panoramic full sky scapes.

It is expected that this 50-acre paddock will be a quality project that is zoned rural-residential and should yield 64 blocks as per the draft plan.

The selling agent says that each block could sell for more than $200,000 bringing in more than $12 million. Mains water, sewerage, SEC and phone are all adjacent – the draft plan needs the engineering to be done to finalise it.

NEW HOMES AND LAND

COCOON OF LUXURY WRAP your family in a cocoon of luxury with Fairhaven Homes’ Tuncurry 269.

Experience the Tuncurry 269 for yourself at the beautiful Waterford Rise Estate in Warragul. The display includes all standard items as well as a selection of options that buyers can consider as part of a complete Tuncurry package.

The Tuncurry’s modern facade, which includes an attractive portico, is an arresting mixture of textures including render, plain brick and timber lining.

It is one of a range of facades available to suit your style and estate guidelines.

A double garage offers direct access into the home and buyers can choose between a Colorbond or cement roof at the standard price. The Waterford Rise display also gives potential buyers an appreciation of the Tuncurry’s magnificent raked ceiling which soars above the main living/kitchen space. Although the raked ceiling is an option, it is well worth considering.

The master bedroom at the front of the home boasts a fantastic walk-in robe, which runs the whole length of the rear wall.

Cleverly, the design of the master suite includes entry to the robe from either side of the bed, offering easy access to abundant hanging and storage space. The ensuite has a double shower, separate toilet and double vanity.

The open-plan family/dining area boasts a myriad of large windows letting in an abundant natural light. Square-set cornices in the entry and living further enhance the modern feel. Beautiful stone benchtops immediately create a feeling of quality in the kitchen, as does the 900mm free-standing Westinghouse oven, a standard inclusion in the Tuncurry. The kitchen has ample storage options including a clever pop-out drawer with

concealed powerpoint, perfect for hiding phone and iPod chargers. The main living area flows through to a rumpus room, which has sliding doors to the rear garden/entertaining area. The further three bedrooms are larger than standard, spacious and light with access to the main bathroom.

Other features of the Tuncurry include mixer taps throughout, solar assisted hot

water, a separate linen cupboard, 20mm stone to all benches and laminate benchtops in the laundry. As a special promotion Fairhaven Homes is offering free evaporative cooling for all new deposits during September.

The Tuncurry 269 starts at $172,900.

See it for yourself at 25 Silkwood Drive, Warragul or contact new home consultant Peter Leydon on 0409 554 394.

NEW HOMES AND LAND

TIMELESS DESIGN BUYERS with a discerning eye for early 20s century architecture will love Red Bluff Homes’s take on the iconic Californian bungalow.

The Californian pays homage to the timeless design principals which originated in America in the early 20th century and were popular in Australia in the 1920s and ‘30s.

The façade of the home is immediately recognisable as a Californian bungalow with its distinctive front porch, incorporating stone and brickwork, framing the main building.

The quality of the build is immediately evident in the portico’s timber decking and timber ceiling.

Art deco touches, including ceiling roses, lighting and decorative cornices, feature throughout the front of the house, before the rear gives way to a more contemporary feel.

High ceilings and above average door heights add to the spacious feel of the interior.

The master bedroom, featuring a large window looking over the porch, includes his and hers walk-in wardrobes and a spacious ensuite, with separate toilet, glass shower and double vanity.

There are four distinct living zones including a theatre room, family space, meal area and a rumpus space.

A sunken double sided fireplace is a stunning central feature.

The kitchen, with double oven and stone benchtops, includes a discreet butler’s pantry.

A further three bedrooms are arranged around a media room with built-in

desks which provide the perfect space for younger members of the family to study or use technology.

Quality timber craftsmanship continues through to the rear entertaining deck.

The Californian combines the quality and style of yesteryear with a modern twist.

It offers 39.59 squares, including the double garage and porch, and prices start at $189,900 for the three bedroom version.

Buyers should take a drive through beautiful West Gippsland to see The Californian for themselves at 6 Cedarwood Drive, Warragul.

Contact Peter Konjevic on 0418 515 755 or metro inquiries can be directed to Angie Williams on 9709 0400 or 0423 398 183.

We don’t mind if you change our plans.

It’s called layout flexibility.

Arden Homes is a different sort of company creating very different homes.

Firstly, our homes are architect designed and inspired to bring a new sense of space, light and sweeping architectural proportions. You sense the difference immediately. Innovative sun courts, picture windows and full length windows and views that connect inside and out are hallmarks of our design. We insist on luxury standard inclusions such as porcelain tiles, Smeg appliances, Franke sinks, quality carpet, and stone benchtops throughout.

Secondly, we limit the number of houses we build, and are up-front about the pricing of display home extras.

“Arden let us swap rooms around so our new home is exactly as we want it.”

– Sharon and Michael, Croydon And best of all, we encourage layout flexibility. It means you can work with us to switch and swap rooms and features to suit your lot size, orientation and family needs.

Visit an Arden display to see and feel the difference. And ask us how we can tailor the design to make one of our stunning homes your unique dream home.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Small steps open doors

By CASEY NEILL A GREATER Dandenong business delegation will build stepping stones to open opportunities in China.

City of Greater Dandenong business group manager Paul Kearsley will spearhead the trip to China from 26 October to 1 November.

Mayor Jim Memeti, three South East Melbourne Manufacturers Alliance (SEMMA) members and Committee for Dandenong chairman Gary Castricum will travel alongside him to the three-day Xuzhou Trade and Investment Fair.

“We really wanted to focus it more on business leaders rather than businesses, just to get the business leaders within our community sharing the same view,” he said.

“The more people we can get to spread the message into the business community the better.

“There is a lot on offer but it’s quite difficult for businesses to pinpoint exactly what they might get out of it.

“They were very receptive, but I think the challenge is how. How do they get from running a 20-person business in Dandenong South to possibly exporting to China?

“The concept and the idea is exciting.

“What I’m keen to do is put the stepping stones of the how together.”

Mr Kearsley said Xuzhou was home to 10.5 million people.

“And that’s a small city. You only need to get one contract and you’re off,” he said.

“We can’t compete on the intensive labour stuff, because of different pay rates.

“But we can get in with high-end value-add manufacturing.”

He said food was another opportunity.

“The middle class over there are a little bit untrusting of some of the home products that are made because of issues of contamination in the past,” he said.

In addition to the business fair, Mr Kearsley has arranged to meet with organisations and businesses in Xuzhou and Nanjing.

The council has maintained a sister city relationship with Xuzhou in Jiangsu Province for 17 years.

Mr Kearsley is hoping to build on it and expand to Nanjing, which is also in Jiangsu - Victoria’s sister state.

“The chamber of commerce in Nanjing has 22,500 businesses. If we can get a couple of those... ” he said.

The delegation will also visit the Austrade and the Victorian Government Business Office in Shanghai “to get a better understanding of how to do business and what services they offer”.

“So that when our business has got to go over there we’ve got names and contacts,” Mr Kearsley said.

He is also hoping for a meeting with the Jiangsu Development and Reform Commission to start the process toward a memorandum of understanding.

The commission signed one with

City of Greater Geelong’s Enterprise Geelong in July. “It’s about the sharing of information, sharing of investment opportunities, doing some joint research on which businesses could possibly do business in either place,” Mr Kearsley said.

“It’s really formalising a relationship.

“The idea is to examine whether or not an agreement would also be beneficial to us.

“I think it would.”

Mr Kearsley said two delegations from China would visit Greater Dandenong in coming weeks.

“They come out to see what they’ve been reading about,” he said.

“Investors are looking for opportunities in Australia.

“A lot of the larger Chinese developers in a property sense are now looking at Brisbane, Sydney, Melbourne as opportunities to build.

“When I say build, it’s the big stuff - it’s the CBD, 50-storey stuff.

“When they come here, a lot of the other developers of a smaller scale will also follow them in.”

He visited the City of Paramatta in New South Wales earlier this year.

“One of the things we wanted to talk to them about was the level of Chinese investment they’re getting for apartment buildings,” he said.

“They’re certainly getting some significant interest from that side of things.

“Paramatta are probably about 10 years ahead of where we are at the moment in terms of development opportunities.

“Apartments are something we need to get more of into Dandenong, get more people living in the centre.”

Mr Kearsley said current conversations were about seeing what was possible in the future.

“And they’re long-term - these things will take time to get going, but you’ve got to start somewhere,” he said.

Award puts boost into juice A DANDENONG business owner has picked up a national award for his dedication.

Former banker Ravi Chaudhary bought his first Boost Juice store at Waverley Gardens Shopping Centre in 2008.

Last month he beat 220 franchise partners to win the National Kokoda Award for Endurance at the annual National Company Awards.

The honour recognised the 35-year-old’s commitment to the company and his stores while juggling family life.

“No one told me about it or to get a speech,” he said.

“It was an amazing feeling.

“Most of the awards, they are for people who have got big turnover stores, or people who’ve been in business for 10 years, 12 years.

“I’m really honoured.”

Mr Chaudhary moved to Australia from India in 2004, completed a double degree in commerce and business administration, but

Ravinder Chaudhary juices up his business. decided against finding a finance job.

“I decided to look for a business. It’s worked out,” he said.

“I bought a very low-volume store in Waverley Gardens Shopping Centre, Mulgrave, which was a company store before.

“Being a low turnover store I had to put more hours in.

“I was single at the time, with not much responsibility, so I could work.

“It’s a very small shopping centre, so most of the customers are local.

“I have a very good rapport there. I know most of the customers by name and what they want.”

Mr Chaudhary increased the store’s turnover by 20 per cent and bought the

Dandenong Plaza store after marrying Meena in 2010 and welcoming a daughter in 2011.

“I spend most of my time in Dandenong Plaza,” he said.

“When I got this store, for the first year sales only rose about 3 or 4 per cent.

“This year it’s really picking up.

“The other store, my wife is running now.

“It’s all because of my wife - she is really helpful.

“She’s also a migrant.

She’s really adjusted to this environment and she works with me a lot.

“It’s not like I’m doing everything - she’s equal with me.”

Mr Chaudhary said people were becoming more health conscious and the Boost Juice brand had grown significantly since he bought in.

“Probably next year, I’ll be looking for another Boost. It’s a good company,” he said.

Call to break poverty cycle

By CASEY NEILL A DANDENONG women’s group says governments need to address education gaps to break the poverty cycle.

Dandenong Evening Voice, Interests and Education of Women (VIEW) Club raised the issue in the lead-up to AntiPoverty Week (12-18 October).

VIEW fund-raises and volunteers for The Smith Family to help vulnerable young Australians to succeed in their education.

Dandenong Evening VIEW secretary Gunta Delvers said it was hard for kids to concentrate on schoolwork when they were hungry or battling a health

problem. She called on state and federal governments to address the gap in educational performance between disadvantaged and advantaged young Australians.

“Financial vulnerability also means children don’t have access to important learning resources such as books or a home computer, or the pursuits that are at the heart of receiving a comprehensive education, such as school camps, hobbies and sport,” she said.

“As they reach their teens, children in disadvantaged communities often lack positive role models and the networks so crucial in creating a pathway to future study or a job.”

Ms Delvers said that if a young person left school with an inadequate education it was likely their cycle of disadvantage would continue.

“That’s not only bad for them but for the entire community,” she said.

“Anti-Poverty Week is an opportune time for VIEW to contribute its voice to tackling disadvantage in Australia - to help change perceptions and raise awareness of this critical issue, in the Dandenong region and across the country.”

Anti-Poverty Week aims to strengthen public understanding of poverty and encourage discussion and action aimed at addressing the problem.

MEDICALLY SPEAKING

Empowered to help JUST for Kids Psychology offers a wide range of services to meet childrens’ individual needs.

“We aim to help children reach their full potential and to work with parents to empower them to assist their children proactively in the future,” principal psychologist Lis Arnheim said.

“We offer a comfortable, confidential and child-friendly service.

“We believe children need a service that focuses on their needs.

“At the same time we involve the parents with their children’s treatment.

“We understand that parents are often distressed about their child’s condition.

“Involving parents helps alleviate many of their concerns.”

She said all staff were experienced and specialised in working with children.

“Our clinic is open and friendly and our staff are very approachable.”

The clinic has a large room for those children that require space - this often removes the clinical aspect of a closed door to an office.

“We encourage children to spend time playing with other children to alleviate the feeling of isolation,” she added.

Lis Arnheim A very experienced psychologist, Lis has worked in the public and private sector for 23 years and has established an extensive referral basis to assist families to access appropriate services.

She has worked Endeavour Hills for 15 years and Just for Kids opened in August 2013.

It now has 10 staff with a range of qualifications and experience.

All the Just for Kids team continue to attend courses to further develop their professional skills.

Many of the team are currently completing higher educational courses.

Lis said case management was also an essential component in co-ordinating services for children with special needs.

The clinic bulk bills families who hold a current family HCC. “We offer in-home support and hands-on assistance to parents to help establish strategies that will work in the home environment,” she said.

As well as its many services, Just for Kids really enjoys giving the children and families something to gather together and enjoy.

“This year we have hired an indoor play centre for our Christmas party,” Lis said.

“We will have food, santa, a roaming magician and lots of fun.”

Just for Kids Psychology can be found at 20 Adamson Drive, Endeavour Hills.

It is open Tuesday, Thursday and Friday from 8am to 5.30pm.

Clinic hours vary throughout the year and they may be able to accommodate outside these days and hours - by appointment only.

Bang for their buck

By CASEY NEILL IT’S been 21 years since a handful of people decided that refugees needed more support and advocacy in Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia.

Southern Migrant and Refugee Centre (SMRC) will celebrate the milestone birthday this Wednesday, 15 October.

CEO Jenny Semple said the notfor-profit community-based agency formed with $200,000 from the then-Department of Immigration and Ethnic Affairs.

“We started with about seven staff and a committee of management and from that point we really grew and grew based on the demands,” she said.

“We’ve worked with all the waves of refugees and migrants that have come through.”

SMRC started in Walker Street, Dandenong, offering settlement services.

It’s expanded into aged care and added a youth worker, employment programs, driver education, counselling and family support, home tutoring and more.

The organisation is now based in Thomas Street, Dandenong, and has about 64 office-based staff, 93 casual workers and 90 volunteers.

“We would be looking to move in the near future to something a bit bigger... and where the community would come in and have events and dancing and music,” Ms Semple said.

Jaqueline, CEO Jenny Semple, Natalia, Zlata, Sharon, Jacob, Tatjana and Berla celebrate SMRC’s 21st birthday. 127727 Picture: GARY SISSONS SMRC’s greatest demand is from asylum seekers who are ineligible for many government services.

“Those funded to provide for asylum seekers, they do a good job but it’s with very limited funding and within very limited scope,” Ms Semple said.

“What they can’t deliver moves the need onto other agencies that aren’t funded to support them.

“A lot of people want to help asylum seekers but they haven’t got the resources to do it.”

She said volunteer groups stepped up to meet the demand but services were “a bit disco-ordinated”.

“So they might be addressing a need that’s already being met in-

stead of looking at what the gaps are,” she said.

“When you’ve got limited resources you want to make sure what you’ve got goes as far as it can and can help as much as possible.”

Ms Semple said technology was also a struggle for many migrants and refugees trying to access advice on housing, migration and other issues.

“A lot of service providers and government assume that everyone has a laptop and an email.

“A lot of our clients don’t have laptops or iPads or emails,” she said.

Another challenge SMRC has faced is working with short-term funding.

“You set the program up and you

get everything established and you become very well experienced, people know about you and then suddenly the funding stops,” she said.

“You lose staff, you lose the program, you lose the confidence of clients.

“It’s difficult to plan ahead and have a strategic plan of what programs and where you want to go.”

But Ms Semple said SMRC was resilient.

“I think we have a very good culture of assessing what the client’s needs are and always looking to meet those needs,” she said.

Those needs include supporting the ageing migrant population through planned activity groups and through Diverse Care.

“We find that people as they get older revert back to their original language,” Ms Semple said.

“Diverse Care is a large pool of about 110 bilingual qualified personal care workers who we match with clients from other aged care agencies to provide personal care and other services to a person who speaks their language.

“That’s been really successful.

That’s been operating for over 10 years and is continuing to grow as the population ages.”

Another successful SMRC initiative is providing community profiles and cultural training.

“I think it’s good that people are willing to learn and hear about how they can improve, and not just think that they’re all doing it right,” she said.

Pondexter...

Wright move for Rangers

By JARROD POTTER FROM a light-hearted recruiting joke to signing on the dotted line, the Dandenong Rangers have wowed the WNBL community with the signing of American Cappie Pondexter.

Dandenong’s latest recruiting coup came to fruition this week as Olympic gold medallist Pondexter signed on to play in the WNBL. From the early days of this pre-season, Dandenong’s recruiting efforts have reaped exceptional rewards as the Rangers secured star centre Liz Cambage and WNBA champion Monica Wright to pump up the roster.

Injuries to both players - ruling them out of the 2014/15 WNBL season - forced Dandenong back to the recruiting table and unearthed Pondexter, a prized recruit that most thought was out of reach

for a WNBL franchise.

Pondexter’s credentials speak volumes of her capabilities.

The six-time WNBA All-Star and Olympic champion turned down a chance for a rare summertime sabbatical and instead will pull on the green and gold for her first time in Australian’s premier basketball league.

Dandenong coach Mark Wright hailed the signing as one of the best the league has ever seen and knows Pondexter will slot into her scoring duties with aplomb.

“Was a bit of luck and good fortune and persistence,” Wright said.

“Obviously by losing Liz (Cambage) and the amount of scoring she brings - let’s not bring into it her size and her rebounding and the intimida-

Dandenong coach Mark Wright is thrilled to recruit WNBA star Cappie Pondexter for the Picture: JARROD POTTER upcoming WNBL season. 94607 tion factor of having Liz there - we had to bolster up our scoring.

“We started investigating and looked for what scorers were out there and we were lucky that Cappie had decided to take the season off from Europe and we had a good relationship with her agent.

“What started out as a bit of a joke turned into a distinct possibility and through the negotiations she decided that she’d never been to Australia and wanted to have a taste of the Australian connection.”

With injuries to a number of Dandenong players - including season enders for Cambage and Wright while Alice Kunek (shoulder) remains over a month away from playing - Wright knows

Pondexter will be a valuable addition to shoot the Rangers into a winning position.

“I’m sure Cappie coming in will add a dominant scorer, then when Kunek comes in that gives us another dominant scorer,” he said.

“It’s really about hanging on until those players are playing… Cappie is due in on 15-16 October, just before the season starts so she’ll get a quick rundown of what we do and then she’ll get to work.”

Dandenong’s Spring Shield campaign - held in Bendigo over the weekend - did not fare well with three losses to West Coast, Townsville and Canberra respectively.

JOCs evolve with McGee Miller - Thunder’s Rising Star

By JARROD POTTER

By JARROD POTTER

A DECADE after his last stint at the club, St John’s OC Football Club coach Ben McGee has returned with a check-list of ambitions for the Victorian Amateur Football Association (VAFA) team.

He’s not focused on living off past success - which includes the 2005 VAFA Division-3 premiership when he last coached at Thomas Carroll Reserve - but instead is striving solely towards the club’s next achievement.

“I was part of a fairly successful football culture at the school and then was very fortunate to be involved as a coach of the club back in 04-05 with that culminating in a premiership,” McGee said.

“The stars have aligned and I’m back here ready for the challenge.

“It’s great to be a premiership coach but you can’t reflect on that - it has to be about what we’re going to do next.

“The key to coming back here is that I’m hungry and that’s why I do it.”

McGee returns to the JOCs from Southern Football League’s Clayton with different coaching philosophies and understands evolution is the number-one aim to staying competitive.

“You’ve got to move with the times and evolve… got to be progressive,” McGee said.

“The way you initiate your conversations with players you have got to be able to be flexible and patient - these are two areas I’ve had to really evolve over the last 10 years.

“Whilst they’re important you’ve still got to be able to maintain a fairly intensive purpose in your actions so it’s

A GENTLE nudge towards the midfield paid off for Dandenong Thunder’s literal rising star Matt Millar.

Millar, 18, from Pearcedale, was named the inaugural National Premier Leagues Victoria (NPL) Rising Star at the NPL Gold Medal awards night last week after a sensational year through the Thunder midfield.

His move into the centre was only given the go-ahead

by Thunder coach Dean Hennessey this year and Millar relished his chance to broaden his skills away from the last line of defence.

“It’s very, very humbling to know that I’ve won this award and I’m really grateful for it,” Millar said.

“Coming into the season I was considered as a fullback… Deano (Dean Hennessey), the coach at Thunder, saw bigger things for me and pushed me up the ground some more… it gave me a lot more freedom.

“The move gave me more of an attacking presence and I got on the scoresheet as well.”

The year was not ideal for Dandenong - finishing ninth in the 14-team competition - but Millar appreciated the step-up in competition and thought it was a big improvement on the Victorian Premier League model.

“I definitely thought it was a lot more structured and a lot more professional,” Millar said.

“With Dandy - being there the year before - we brought in a lot of technical directors like Stuart Munro and coaches and we had a good, young

With St John’s standing as the highest ranked VAFA club in the south eastern suburbs, McGee wanted players in the wider area to know the JOCs are keen to recruit from all ways of life and all backgrounds, to forge a strong community on and off the field.

“It’s a great community club and has a different ethos to the financial clubs around the area,” McGee said.

“It’s an environment where

you’re measured not just on your football ability but your football character and that comes in regards to just having a crack.

“We’re a very multicultural club… embracing multiculturalism and all religions… we just want to build the game in the Dandenong and south-east area.”

The club is now recruiting new players and looking for main sponsors. For more information, email the St John’s at info@stjohnsocfc.com.au.

With seven goals and a number of starring performances - including his impressive solo-run from defence to the match-winning goal against Green Gully Millar earned 17 votes in the NPL Gold Medal count to finish just off the pace of winner Milos Lujic (24 votes).

His busy year also included Schoolboys’ representation with School Sport Victoria and he will head to England early next year to represent School Sport Australia after starring at the championships

held in New South Wales in August.

Millar has his VCE exams to keep him busy alongside his commitments playing for Melbourne City’s National Youth League (NYL) team this summer.

“Training a fair bit with the seniors and in with the (Melbourne City) seniors and being there with the Youth has been unreal and fairly full on as well, but enjoying it a lot,” Millar said.

“Hopefully just continue to seize the opportunity with the first team and put in some good performances with the Youth and go from there.”

SPORT WOMEN’S PREMIER CRICKET

Lion King tames Lamb Dandenong’s Chelsea Moscript whips a boundary away en route to a career-best 47 not out. 128831

Courtney Neale claimed two wickets in her second match of the day for Dandenong. 128831

A SEVEN-WICKET victory over Plenty Valley gave Dandenong Lions Women’s Cricket Club plenty of reasons to roar.

Plenty Valley won the toss and took the batting initiative on a batting-friendly day at Greaves Reserve. The visitors could not capitalise on the conditions as Sharomi Wijeratne (3/11), Alana King (2/14) and Emma Gallagher (1/30) claimed the early scalps.The Plenty Valley fight back came from captain Kirsty Lamb (25) to give the visi-

tors something tangible to defend, but after she dollied a caught-andbowled back to King, the rest of the order failed to put up a struggle.

One of the up-and-coming, Lions’ bowler Courtney Neale (2/6), finished the job with her two overs to give Dandenong 87 to chase.

The next young Lion to stand tall was Chelsea Moscript (47 not out), who anchored the innings from the top of the order as wicket fell about her. The gutsy Gippslander saw off the Plenty Valley attack, which claimed the early wickets of Erica Kershaw (2) and Alana King

(0). With Dandenong on the ropes, Moscript held on strongly to see off the onslaught and capitalise on two partnerships with Shelly Hart (15) and Australian Test mainstay Sarah Elliott (26 not out). While the half-century went begging, it is Moscript’s highest score in Premier Cricket first grade and will stand as proof of her capabilities when the VicSpirit come knocking.

The Lions’ seconds weren’t as victorious as the firsts, forced instead to share the points with Plenty Valley as the sides tied on 101 runs apiece after their Twenty20. Captain

Carin Eastburn (47 not out) guided the run-chase alongside Naomi Fullwood (24) but couldn’t find that extra run needed to take the triumph.

Fourth placed Dandenong will host Essendon Maribyrnong Park in a one-dayer this Saturday from 11am.

In other Dandenong WCC news, any girls from 11-15 years old who want to play cricket this season are encouraged to contact Emma Gallagher at dandenongwomenscc@ gmail.com for more information on joining the newly formed DDCA under-13 team.

DANDENONG DISTRICT CRICKET ASSOCIATION

Eagles take shine to new caps

By JARROD POTTER CRANBOURNE’S big-ticket recruit sung for his supper emphatically as newly appointed skipper Steve Spoljaric (94) starred in the Eagles’ 80-run win over Dandenong West.

After raising the DDCA Turf 2 flag from last season and presenting Turf 1 caps to the players, Cranbourne started horrendously as the Eagles fell to 4/32.

The revival came from Spoljaric and another big signing for the Eagles in years gone by as Te Ahu Davis (64) went the tonk as he walloped his first Turf 1 half-ton. The duo notched 126 runs together and was finally broken at 5/158 as Jamie Brown (2/38) earned Davis’ wicket.

Another collapse would leave Cranbourne in tough waters, but Spoljaric remained to keep the Eagles soaring. Spoljaric would hang on til the final few overs before giving up a catch off Kieran Rodgers (2/390) falling six runs short of his 10th Turf 1 ton - but by then Cranbourne had escaped danger and turned the tables on the Bulls. Dandenong West had no answers for Cranbourne’s bowling as the only innings of note came from Anthony Brannan (29) in the middle order. Martin Kelly (4/16) and Davis (3/17) carved up the Bulls and left no remains as Cranbourne stormed home for its first win in its Turf 1 resumption.

A gutsy captain’s knock from Coomoora (124) skipper Rob Johnston (59) was nowhere near enough to surpass Parkfield’s (227) impres-

DANDENONG (4/253) demonstrated its true batting potential with a heroic chase down of Carlton (5/252cc).

The Panthers struggled to make inroads into the Carlton batting order, as Nathan Lambden (2/63) did the best of the bowlers.

It left Dandenong with a steep 250 run chase at Princes Park, but the conditions suited the Panthers to a tee as they started with a bang.

Tom Donnell (45) and Brett Forsyth (19) started the hitting display before Peter Sweeney (22) and new recruit David Alleyne (81 not out) started the next wake. Alleyne’s run-a-ball 81 anchored the innings alongside Cameron Forsyth (32) and Victorian/Australian representative James Pattinson (37 not out) as the Panthers chased down the runs with an over to spare.

Dandenong’s next challenge waits at home as Camberwell Magpies visit Shepley Oval on Saturday from 11am.

THE reigning premiers Noble Park (188) could not be split from Malvern (188) after the opening round of Sub-District cricket.

The Bulls charged through the Malvern middle order following a strong secondwicket stand from James Lynch and Michael Jones (68). Ash Perera (3/45) kept things tidy from one end while Mevan Fernando (3/14) and Marasinghe Perera (2/45) started chipping away in tandem with the former Premier Cricket dynamo. The last Rooster resistance came from Leigh Alford (42) and from there the visitors collapsed properly - spurred on

by Fernando getting on a hat-trick - before the scores levelled with the last wicket to be claimed. Fielders crowded the bat as Perera bowled what would be the final over, trapping the captain Simon Conway (0) in front to leave the match at a tie.

Noble Park faces Endeavour Hills in a two-day local showdown starting this Saturday at Sydney Pargeter Reserve.

Panthers... with a bang

reaped the other multiple wicket tally.

Most sides would rear up at a 280-run chase, but Buckley Ridges (8/283) did it in style as they batted down the order to take a triumphant first-up win against last year’s runner-up Springvale South (8/279cc).

Anchoring the innings was Simon Fonceca (99) who was cruelly denied his maiden Turf 1 century by Andrew Sharp (1/29) and an equally sharp catch from Dylan Quirk. The damage was done though as Matt Goodwright (44) and Paul Rudd (25 not out) steered the Ridges home with three balls remaining in the clash. Jarrod Armitage (3/89), Tim

Ford (2/76) and Craig Slocombe (1/32) bowled the majority of overs as Armitage and Ford rattled off over 20 overs each.

North Dandenong (2/219) had the batting firepower to overcome a strong tally from Hallam Kalora Park (9/214cc) as Nasrat Mulkezada (85 not out) and Craig Gunawardana (63) pushed the tally along. Jurgen Andersen (22 not out) batted up the order and flourished to guide the Norths home after overcoming an injury that limited him to 3.3 overs last week.

Berwick versus Lyndale results were unavailable at time of publication.

Most inclusive netball

SPRING FEVER

By JARROD POTTER EMBRACING the diverse Dandenong community earned St Mary’s Netball Club prestigious recognition from Netball Victoria.

St Mary’s - based out of the Dandenong and District Netball Association - was named the Inclusive Netball Community of the Year at the Netball Victoria Gala Awards Night for the club’s efforts with its “Grow With Goals” program.

The program encouraged players and family members from different cultures to get involved with netball and was inspired by St Mary’s player Achel Liai and her mother Alwal Madut - who is a leader within Greater Dandenong’s Sudanese community.

“It was a long process,” St Marys president Penny Collins said.

“It’s not like it has just been the last six months and we went ‘let’s go for the award’, this has been an ongoing aim for the last five years.

“Not that we’re looking for awards as such, but it was great to be recognised by our peers to know that we’re doing a great job.”

Winning the award was a huge honour for Collins and the club… she was proud to represent the Greater Dandenong netball community on the night.

“I think we’re all really happy and

Collins wanted to thank Netball Victoria and Dandenong and District Netball Association for their continued support and encouraged players from all backgrounds to get along and join the club.

“If you want to play or just want to have a try, there’s somewhere you can go

to do that and I suppose that’s what St Mary’s is about,” Collins said.

“If you want to give netball a go, come and try.”

Banjo strums number-one tune

By MICHAEL FLOYD BANJO Boy burst back onto the feature scene Thursday evening when he brilliantly took out a TAB Melbourne Cup Prelude at Sandown Park.

One of the fastest greyhounds ever to grace the View Road circuit, Banjo Boy took full advantage of box one and powered to a lead he wouldn’t relinquish.

“I thought he’d run around 29.30 so it was in the window of about what I expected,” said trainer Ken Virtue.

“He hasn’t had many trials (since resuming from a three month injury lay off), I’ve used the races to get him to 500m so I reckon at his next run he should be tops.”

While delighted with Banjo Boy’s first win since May, Virtue was conscious of what lay ahead to get his charge into the world’s richest greyhound race.

“It’s great to tick the Pre-

Banjo Boy hammered out a scintillating tune to win the TAB Melbourne Cup Prelude. 128832 lude box and get him qualified for the Cup heats, but we’ve still got a month to go (before the heats).

“The Preludes are great, but I’m not sure if I’ll run him in another one… but then, I’ve got to keep him racing, so it’s a problem I’ll deal with when I sit down and have a good think about the options.”

New Zealand bred

greyhound Above All also booked his berth in the TAB Melbourne Cup heats with an impressive win in 29.44.

Robert Britton’s exciting youngster claimed the biggest win of his burgeoning eight-race career, and will aim to become the first Kiwi greyhound since 1974 to win the world’s richest greyhound race.

Superfonic recorded the

biggest upset of the night when claiming his Prelude in 29.40.

Lining up in a high quality field that included Australia’s highest stake earning greyhound Xylia Allen, Superfonic was sent to the boxes a $29 chance but proved too good to hold out highly rated Sydney chaser Shoulders by a length.

In the night’s final Prelude, Crawf’s Bread led all of the way from box eight to win in 29.64.

Unfortunate to miss a berth in the TAB Melbourne Cup heat last year, Crawf’s Bread has now won 26 of his 89 career starts and claimed over $116,000 in prize money, a remarkable feat considering he has never won above free-for-all level.

All four of the Prelude winners automatically qualify for the heats of the TAB Melbourne Cup on Thursday 13 November, with the $600,000 final to be run on Friday 21 November.

AFTER several years of absence the Japanese are again here to contest the major spring races and they look to have a strong hand in Saturday’s (October 18) $3,150,000 Group 1 Crown Golden Ale Caulfield Cup (2400 metres).

It is hard to forget the Japanese quinella of Delta Blues and Pop Rock in the 2006 Melbourne Cup but we must also remember that Delta Blues ran an unlucky third to Tawqueet in the Caulfield Cup that year.

The Crown Golden Ale Caulfield Cup is the toughest, richest and most prestigious 2400 metres handicap in the world and this Saturday will see the 137th running. The field will be declared following final declaration, carrying a fee of $24,750, at 10am on Tuesday, October 14. At the close of third acceptances on October 7, 41 horses remained in the race, including seven internationallytrained horses. The field limit is 18 horses with four emergencies.

There looks likely to be at least two Japanese runners, Bande and Admire Rakti, with the former appearing an outstanding chance.

Bande is prepared at Ritto in Western Japan by one of the nations’ top trainers, Yoshito Yahagi. He has raced 12 times for five wins, three thirds and $1,332,418 in stakes. The five-year-old ran third in the Group 1 Kikuka Sho (Japanese St Leger) last October and, at his most recent outing on August 10, won the Listed Sapporo Nikkei Open (2600 metres) at Sapporo. He has a liking for firm tracks. I viewed a video of the Sapporo race and Bande went straight to the front and dictated the race before racing clear on the home turn to win by five lengths, destroying his opposition.

Christophe Lemaire has been booked to ride Bande this spring and he has been pleasing in work at Werribee.

“We hope he can roll from the front but it would depend on the other gallopers in the race,” assistant trainer Takahide Ando said recently.

“If we can go front we try to…

he’s a star to racing… it’s just how much he has… we will see”.

Another international to watch will be Dandino, who flew home down the outside to run second to Fawkner in last year’s Caulfield Cup - beaten by 1.25 lengths - and ran fifth to Fiorante in the Melbourne Cup - 3.45 lengths adrift.

He is prepared by Marco Botti.

The horse to beat in the race looks to be the Kris Lees-trained mare, Lucia Valentina, impressive winner of the Group 1 Turnbull Stakes (2000 metres) at Flemington on October 4. She has raced 12 times for five wins, a second and two thirds. The Caulfield Cup will be her fourth start this campaign and the mare looks ideally suited at the weights. Last Autumn Lucia Valentina won the Group 1 Vinery Stakes (2000 metres) in Sydney.

Australia’s leading Group 1 winning trainer last season, Chris Waller, is likely to be well represented and Who Shot The Barman caught the eye with his win in the Group 3 Bart Cummings (2520 metres) at Flemington on October 4. He won the Auckland Cup (3200 metres) in March and has been successful in both starts since coming to Melbourne. His 1.5kg penalty should assure him of a start. Waller will also have Hawspur, who ran seventh last year - beaten by 2.35 lengths.

Dear Demi, Ambivalent (to race here as My Ambivalent) and equal Melbourne Cup favourite, The Offer also command attention.

A lot of attention will centre on the $750,000 Group 3 Caulfield Classic (2000 metres), which was formerly the Norman Robinson Stakes and has proven one of the best guides to the Victoria Derby two weeks later.

Whilst most attention centres on Saturday there is a strong meeting at Caulfield on Wednesday with the $250,500 Catanach’s Jewellers Blue Sapphire (1200 metres) the feature event.

Sportingbet Sandown Guineas Day will be held at Sportingbet Park, Sandown on Saturday, November 15.
