POLICE are warning online shoppers to take care after a 42-year-old man was robbed when he was lured to an address in Narre Warren South through internet sales site Gumtree.

They say the occupants of the address where the man was sent to were not aware of any sale.

Police advise that it is safest to carry out the transactions in a public place.

About 5.45pm on Sunday 18 January police said a man went to an address near Demint Walk where he had arranged to pick up a phone he had ordered off popular sales site Gumtree.

Police said that the victim arrived at the address and was still in his car when he was approached by two people who jumped into his vehicle. It is believed one of the men got in the rear driver’s side door and produced a knife, while the other man sat in the passenger’s seat.

It has been alleged that the victim was told to hand over his belongings, which included a substantial amount of cash, an iPad and an iPad mini.

It is also believed that both men then ran off down Demint Walk after the incident.

Gumtree advises online shoppers to have someone with them if they are visiting’s someone’s house for a transaction, or have someone with them if a customer is coming to their house, to always inspect the item before agreeing to a sale, and to never send or wire money to anyone they don’t know.

A 17-year-old male appeared in Melbourne Children’s Court charged with armed robbery yesterday morning (Wednesday).

Investigations are still ongoing, with police eager to speak to the other male involved.

The incident comes as Casey police urging residents to keep their cars locked after a spate of thefts since Christmas.

It’s understood there have been roughly 113 reported thefts from cars in Casey as of 1 January.

They urge anyone who may have been in the area at the time or who have any information to come forward and contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Lock or face thefts

Aimee does her Block

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD AIMEE Robson had always wanted to compete in The Block.

And in 2015 the 27-year-old from Berwick has been given her chance.

Aimee and her cousin Brooke Jackson, from Pakenham, are one of six new teams competing in the upcoming series of The Block Triple Threat.

“I’ve always wanted to do it,” Aimee said.

“Then I saw an ad for this new series and thought ‘Stuff it, I’ll give it a try’.

“I put up a post on Facebook about it to see who wanted to apply with me.”

Aimee received many eager responses to her post, from her cousin and others, and was eager to try out for the show with Brooke “because she’s family”.

Aimee applied for the show with little experience behind her, apart from completing furniture restoration as a hobby.

“I’ve always had a thing for design and interior design,” Aimee said.

“I wanted to give it a go and get some ideas from it. I love it.

“It’s something different and it’s fun getting creative I’m happiest when I’m doing stuff like that.”

But being on The Block doesn’t come without its trials and tribulations.

“It’s the most tiring thing I’ve done in my life,” Aimee said.

“You don’t get to sleep, unless you don’t want to have a room finished.

“There’s no time to stop.

You try and fit things in and things go wrong. Shops aren’t

open at night so you have to make sure you’ve already been.

“I also thought when watching the show that it wasn’t real how people ran out of time, I thought it was just for TV but it’s actually real.

“And I knew there were cameras but I didn’t expect them to be so constant either.”

But despite her lack of building experience, Aimee said she picked up the tricks of the trade pretty quickly.

“The first ceiling I painted in the house was the first project I’d ever done, and it was on The Block,” she said.

“If you have ideas and a steady hand to paint, then you’re fine.”

The Block Triple Threat will air on Channel Nine at 7.30pm on Tuesday 27 January.

CASEY police are urging residents to keep their cars locked after a spate of thefts since Christmas.

It’s understood there have been 113 reported thefts from cars in Casey as of 1 January.

On the weekend more than 20 cars were broken into in Berwick’s Eden Rise Estate, half of which were left unlocked.

Police believed car windows were smashed open in the estate when valuables were left in clear sight, including handbags, wallets, phones and laptops.

Call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Injured in attack

Berwick’s Aimee Robson, left, and her cousin, Brooke Jackson, from Pakenham, are competing in the upcoming series of The Block Triple Threat.

It’s all go on crossing for Fountain Gate THE ongoing saga to have a new pedestrian crossing installed at Fountain Gate Shopping Centre has finally come to an end, with Westfield announcing funding for the project.

The development comes after two years of community campaigning to have a crossing set up at the Magid Drive site, with a 400-signature petition presented to Casey Council in 2013.

Magid Drive borders part of the shopping centre and caters for a high volume of pedestrians who cross the road to access the sporting clubs at nearby Max Pawsey Reserve, including the Narre Warren Bowls Club.

The crossing is currently being completed.

“This has been an ongoing issue for some time, and I’ve supported local residents’ calls

CASEY.VIC.GOV.AU

for greater road safety on Magid Drive,” Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan said.

“I’m happy to see Westfield has stepped in to fund the crossing.”

At Tuesday’s Casey Council meeting, a motion was carried to write to VicRoads seeking a reduction in the speed limit along the notorious section of Magid Drive from 60km/h to 50km/h.

AN ELDERLY woman sustained a fractured eye socket and bleeding on the brain during a vicious attack in Endeavour Hills.

Police have urged anyone who has information about the attack on the 64-year-old woman to come forward.

On 2 January this year the lady was gardening, at her home along James Cook Drive.

Police believe she was pushed in the back and said she could remember waking up on the front footpath outside her house.

Police said when the woman awoke and saw her injuries she called paramedics who took her to The Alfred hospital where she remained for a couple of days.

They have appealed for anyone in the area or any people involved to come forward and contact the Casey Criminal Investigation Unit.

High time for help

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD AT HIS lowest ebb, Florin Bordei found no help in Casey.

It was five years ago when the fatherof-three was caught deeply in the thralls of a bipolar disorder, searching desperately for a support group in his local area but unable to find one.

Now in a better place and with a new outlook on life, Florin has taken responsibility into his own hands, this month starting up the not-for-profit South Eastern Bipolar Network.

“I needed something while I was going through it but nothing was available at the time,” Florin, 39, said.

“There was nothing. I went through all the motions - heavy drinking, my marriage was also in tatters at the time - I had to seek help from my local GP, and he referred me to a specialist and I had to learn the hard way.

“To tell the truth, until I was diagnosed I hadn’t even heard of bipolar.

"If I can help anyone at all by setting up this support network, it would be great.”

While in the grips of his condition, Florin, who migrated to Australia from Romania in 1992, learnt of the Melbourne Bipolar Network, a group he used for in-

spiration to form the Casey Network.

He said the Melbourne Network allowed people suffering from the illness to share and listen to other people’s experiences - a reminder that they weren’t suffering alone.

“The idea is that you meet regularly.

Once a month, once a fortnight, depends on what people need,” Florin said.

“Bipolar affects people differently.

Some people want to talk, some people don’t. At our meetings if you don’t want to talk about it, you may be happy just to listen.

“Bipolar sufferers, if they’re not aware they have the illness, it tends to lead to things like drug use, alcoholism or suicide in some cases and if we can stop these things, our mission is accomplished.”

When speaking of his own battle with the disorder, Florin recalls the huge emotional highs and the crushing lows.

“It goes from a very dazzling high you feel like you’re on drugs - and then you feel you’re on rock bottom,” he said.

“It takes its toll both mentally and physically.”

Those in need of immediate assistance, or who need to talk to someone they can trust, can phone Lifeline on 131 114.

Growing road to recovery in mental health A VOLUNTARY Australian mental health movement continues to help reshape people’s lives in Berwick after setting up in the community 15 years ago.

GROW is a mental wellbeing program that enables the participants, who are suffering from a range of mental illnesses and anxieties, to run the weekly two-hour meetings themselves.

The Berwick GROW group meets at the Berwick Neighbourhood Centre for two hours every Wednesday.

But GROW, which was originally called Recovery, was first set up in Australia in 1957, and now operates internationally.

The weekly meetings are run by group members and based on a 12-step framework, concluding with a written

evaluation involving all participants.

GROW meetings don’t include professional counsellors or psychologists, with one field worker noting that the meetings are understood as “complementing professional mental health services”.

The sessions are also open to all adults and only first names are used.

The field worker said there was no intake procedure, client files or fees.

For more information about the Berwick group, contact the GROW Community Centre on 1800 558 268, or visit www.grow.net.au.

Those in need of immediate assistance, or who need to talk to someone they can trust, can phone Lifeline on 131 114.

Robbers knock out boy’s teeth A MUGGING victim had his two front teeth knocked out when he and another boy were attacked on their way home from a house party in Cranbourne.

About 11.30pm on Thursday 8 January the two boys were walking down Fairfield Street in Cranbourne when they were approached by three males who were described as African in appearance.

Police believe these three men had been at the party uninvited.

One of the victims was kicked to the throat by a man who was described as tall and lanky wearing skinny leg jeans.

He also had spray directed at his eyes which caused him to lose vision and also burnt his lips.

The other victim was knocked out and police believe his wallet was stolen.

One of the victims will undergo significant dental repairs after his two front teeth were knocked out.

Both boys were taken to Casey Hospital and police have appealed for any witnesses to come forward or people who were at the same party.

Graffiti still scars

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

GRAFFITI vandalism in Casey has continued to rise over the past two years.

And Casey Council and Victoria Police are again urging the community to report graffiti sighted in the municipality as part of an ongoing joint operation between the two institutions.

City of Casey Manager Community Safety Caroline Bell said the increase could be attributed to the municipality’s growth in both infrastructure and population.

“It’s (graffiti) certainly increasing in the last 12 months to two years.

“We’ve seen an increase in the amount of graffiti that we are removing,” she said.

“It remained fairly static for five to eight years and then it has gradually started to increase.

“But we’re also seeing a significant increase in the amount of hard infrastructure that we have in the municipality - industrial areas, housing areas, fences, buildings and all of those things.

“As the municipality continues to grow, obviously there’s an increasing pallet for people to be using.”

Casey’s graffiti management program was started in 2002 by the council and police, and en-

Acting Senior Sergeant Jen McKenna and Casey Manager Community Safety Caroline Bell are urging the local community to report graffiti. courages residents to report sightings of graffiti to both bodies.

Graffiti is reported from hotspots across the municipality including in Endeavour Hills, Narre Warren and Cranbourne.

It’s understood a vandal, who has been using the same tag and has still not been caught, has clocked up to $18,000 worth of damage in Hampton Park in the last few months.

Police are interested in speaking to anyone that may be aware of the offender.

Acting Senior Sergeant Jen McKenna said the City of Casey provided police with monthly graffiti statistics, indicating which suburbs are peaking for graffiti incidents at that current time.

“That’s how we work in partnership. We discuss the tags, we work it out - sometimes it might be a one-off tag, most likely it’s one we’re seeing over and over,” she said.

“The data base is fantastic. If we apprehend someone for graffiti and it’s a specific tag, we’re not just focused on the one incident.

“We have contact straight away with council, with our Community Safety Officer and we go through the data base and often - we had this shown from our last offender that was picked up - we were able to go through the data base and find that they were responsible for numerous incidents.”

For graffiti removal, call 1800 VANDAL (826 325), or email casey@ums.com.au.

Anyone with any information about the incident or the identity of the robber is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Pastor praise for probe of family violence A RESPECTED Casey pastor and Challenge Family Violence mentor has welcomed the new Victorian Government’s proposal for a Royal Commission into Family Violence.

Premier Daniel Andrews released the proposed terms of reference for the Royal Commission on Monday.

Pastor Graeme Cann, from the Casey Pastors Network, said the investigation was “desperately needed”.

The Andrews Government’s proposed terms of reference outline an investigation into the most effective ways to prevent family violence, the most effective ways to improve early intervention to identify and protect those at risk, the most effective ways to make perpetrators accountable, and the most effective ways to improve how government and society work together.

“There’s a long way to

“If only to continue to put the size of the problem before the Australian public,” he said.

“There’s always going to be a need for caring and supporting victims and hopefully there will be a focus on them throughout the commission.

“The big thing is how we can decrease the numbers of people being abused, and not just abused but killed on a regular basis.”

go to hold people appropriately accountable,” Pastor Cann said.

“I also think there is a need to look at what we do with people incarcerated for domestic violence. I think it all fits with the issue of changing the attitudes that lie at the basis of family violence.

“The Royal Commission is another great step forward.”

It’s understood there

were more than 3700 family violence incidents reported in the City of Casey in 2014 - the highest in the state by just under 1000 incidents.

Last year the News ran a month-long White Ribbon campaign throughout November, in conjunction with the Casey Council’s Challenge Family Violence project. For more information, visit www.whiteribbon.org. au.

Letters Disapproving I DON'T approve of the article on page 11 (Berwick News, 15 January), 'Eaten Alive’.

In my opinion the last six lines of the article glamourises the use of methamphetamine (ice) and doesn’t give illicit drug users a suggested pathway to rehabilitate. The case study says he has recovered, but in no way says how. I imagine he did rehab, counselling and possibly narcotics anonymous.

Other drug users will be drawn to reading this article but you offer no helpful solutions for them.

The last six lines of the article, in my opinion, make ice sound like something you might want to try.

Lastly, meth users never beat their addiction. Instead they become clean from drug use. They will always be addicted to meth. The chemistry in their brain has been changed by using meth. This is a concept non-addicts often don’t understand, but easier terminology for the general population is “the drug user is now no longer using and is following a program of recovery”.

The 12-step program of recovery at Narcotics Anonymous is an excellent program of ongoing support for addicts and recovering addicts. In your article also it’s good to use a few names for the drug not just “ice.”

Ice, shard and meth are some of the street names that kids will be offered, it’s good if they know what they are being offered, education is a big part of the solution.

Meth addiction is a vicious problem we have in our society and is growing at a frightening rate. It needs to be approached by the media by providing tools to assist in solving it.

The News is produced in three editions with a total audited circulation of 88,807

SHOOTING an inoffensive bird with a bow and arrow is indeed a “despicable“ act (Cruelty for the birds, News, 15 January) but how many of us are guilty of cruelty to birds on a daily basis without even recognising it?

How many of us eat commercially produced eggs? If so we are guilty of slicing off birds' beaks with a red hot blade or laser and permanently incarcerating them inside small, barren, wire cages in which they are constantly feather pecked by their half-crazed “cellmates“. We are guilty of killing all male chicks by dropping them live into mincing machines.

How many eat chicken? Chickens raised for meat are abnormally bred to grow to adult size in just six weeks. Almost all are in chronic pain by the time they reach slaughter weight because their baby legs buckle under the weight of their huge bodies. All birds die a hideously cruel death. As a vegan of 35 years I can assure you that no cruelty to animals is necessary in order to enjoy a healthy and happy life.

Jenny Moxham, Monbulk.

That ain’t art GRAFFITI is not art, it is vandalism and it is open flouting of the rule of law.

It is sometimes said that those who spray graffiti are “are above the law” and that graffiti is “soft terrorism”.

Public places have been vandalised and terrorised by graffiti vandals. Graffiti is a whole bunch of meaningless scrawls, saying nothing except that they have scored one over the other contenders for space.

The places they reach out into are ridiculous, and are scrawled at great risk to their lives. Graffitti lines the walls alongside the railway corridors of all Metro rail routes and are an eyesore.

The cost to local government goes into the hundreds of millions, if not billions of dollars.

A gross waste of tax, and ratepayers' money.

This vandalism and “soft terrorism” must stop. It does not reflect well, and is a deterrent to tourism; we come across as a chaotic society which tolerates mayhem.

I urge the federal, state, and local governments to jointly start a program of elimination of graffiti, by placing the onus to clean up on the owners of property alongside the railway corridors, or wherever graffitti occurs.

If it is private property, then the property owner has responsibility to clean up, and if it is public property, then it is the responsibility of the relevant government authority to clean up. We owe it to ourselves, to create an environment that is graffiti-free, and not let these vandals and terrorists dominate our

Food for thought MY HAT goes off to the young Digger featured in last week’s edition of the News. The returned soldier, “a Cranbourne boy“ at heart, who risked his life along with others in his unit to save countless lives, is a true hero, deserving of the highest accolades.

Such an inspiration doing his speaking tour, raising awareness about the dangers that they face on a daily basis while oversees and also about the difficulties of readjusting to civilian life.

But unfortunately we live in world of consumerism, twisted priorities and so-called “celebrity“ worshipping. No wonder the returned soldiers find it hard to reconnect with old friends, and readjust to the so-called normal life.

In my opinion, the men and women that put their lives in danger, and sometimes pay the ultimate sacrifice so we can have the lifestyle and freedom that we take for granted, are the real celebrities. But these humble Diggers are not doing it for the glory and the fame. Food for thought?

CASEY residents with more than 20 years’ service are set to lose their jobs at Sandown Racecourse.

Sandown and Caulfield garden and grounds maintenance staff last Thursday learned that the Melbourne Racing Club (MRC) would be contracting out their 34 jobs.

The announcement followed six months of enterprise bargaining agreement (EBA) negotiations.

“Some of my mates have been here 40-odd years,” one worker told the News.

Workers’ contracts include a clause banning them from speaking to the media so the News is withholding his identity.

“All they’d offered was a zero per cent pay rise for three years, which basically equates to a pay cut,” he said.

“We went down last Thursday for another meeting. I thought they’d at least offer us one or two per cent,” he said.

But instead the MRC representative produced voluntary redundancy documents, offering a 10 per cent bonus on top of the EBA-stipulated redundancy payout and entitlements.

“They’re calling them voluntary, but according to them you either take the redundancy or take your leave. After that I don’t know what will happen,” the worker said.

“Four guys have already signed them.

“One of the blokes that signed his was in tears over it.

“I don’t think it’d be the same place to work. I don’t know if I can enjoy it anymore.”

He said the MRC told employ-

ees that it had engaged contractors to start work on 1 February and encouraged them to apply for a job with the company.

“The pay will be half the money we’re earning now and the conditions won’t be the same,” he said.

“We fought for years to get these conditions and pay.

“The MRC is crying poor all the time. They’re the richest racing club in Australia.”

The worker said industrial action was likely but the Sandown Australia Day Races would be safe.

“You’ve got to go through all the rigmarole. You have to apply with Fair Work for protected action,” he said.

The Blue Diamond Stakes is on at Caulfield on 28 February.

“They’d be probably a little bit worried about that one, I’d say,”

he said. Australian Workers Union (AWU) Victorian secretary Ben Davis said the decision was “a disproportionate response”.

“There were no whispers. It’s just come completely out of the blue,” he said.

Mr Davis said the union would lodge a dispute with Fair Work and call an emergency meeting of delegates from all metropolitan Melbourne racecourses to “talk through a campaign”.

An MRC spokesman said the decision followed a broader 18-month efficiency review to tackle rising losses in its racing business, which topped $6 million per annum in recent years.

He said MRC was forced to explore other options because the AWU made unreasonable demands.

Dogs gone, but not stolen

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD CASEY police have dismissed suggestions dog thefts in the municipality have become a major problem, after media reports the area was Victoria’s top dog theft region.

This week the Herald Sun reported that 102 dogs had been listed as stolen in the City of Casey in the past five years, according to data provided by Victoria Police and confirmed on Friday by the state’s new Crime Statistics Agency.

But Detective Sergeant Geoff Rumble from Narre Warren police said there was no current anecdotal evidence that the theft of dogs was a “major issue” in Casey.

“It is our belief that the majority of the reports are that of dogs that have gone missing for whatever reason and not stolen,” he said.

“Some are attributed to insecure yards not registered with council, so there’s no way of tracking the owners.”

Reports also suggested that dogs were being stolen for illegal fights, but Det Sgt Rumble said this was unlikely.

“There is no evidence to suggest that dogs are stolen to participate in illegal dog fights,” he said.

City of Casey Manager Community Safety Caroline Bell said any “objective reporting” of dog thefts in Casey should be based on a comparative basis between stolen dogs and registered dogs, rather than “absolute numbers”.

The City of Casey is the state’s largest municipality, with more than 280,000 residents and 25,589 dogs, as of 30 June last year.

“Council undertakes a range of animal management services, including reuniting lost dogs with their owners and investigating and prosecuting serious

“Council would like to remind residents to register their animals by 10 April each year.

“While registering your dog

or cat is the law, it also provides a number of additional benefits.

“The most important benefit to many is that if their pet becomes lost, the unique registration number on their identification tags will help council reunite them with their owners.”

HUMAIRA Ansari knows what it takes to make a fresh start.

The Berwick resident was born in Afghanistan, before spending 15 years as a refugee in Pakistan and then moving to Canada to study and start a career.

Humaira, a Master Hypnotherapist, has now helped the Casey community find a new lease on life after she held free empowerment and weight loss sessions at Berwick Healthcare this week.

“There is a need for this support and there needs to be awareness that help is out there, and awareness that people can do it themselves,” Humaira, 37, said.

“People feel sort of helpless, especially when they get into habits that they can’t change.”

Humaira, a strong advocate for change in one’s life, said most people came to her to stop addictions such as smoking, while many also sought relief for their anxiety.

“I lived as a refugee in Pakistan for 15 years, then I went to Canada to study, then moved to Manchester - the reason I’m so passionate is because I know change can happen,” she said.

“The people who come from my background, the same upbringing as me, they may live with such despair, but I have changed so much in my life through decision-making and choices.

“Every single one of us has the power in ourselves.”

Humaira said the biggest changes she brought upon her-

And she is now urging Casey residents who feel restricted to take a similar leap of faith.

“The main change for me was moving from different cultures, adapting to these cultures and embracing the changes,” Humaira said.

“When you don’t live in your own country it’s very diffi-

cult, the things I didn’t have that people take for granted - there was a lot of trauma.

“Things like fresh air, peace, comfort and a warm bed.

“I want people to take advantage of their opportunities when they come up.”

Heartfelt graffiti in Dandenong.

“Our goal is to make sure there’s plenty of people to talk to and understand,” he said.

Mr Crinall said the program encouraged directly asking someone whether they were considering suicide.

“Being that open and that courageous in posing the question invites people to be equally courageous in their answer,” he said.

“If you kind of skirt around the issue and ask ‘are you thinking of harming yourself?’ or ‘are you having a tough time?’ you give people opportunities to not respond.

“When you say ‘are you thinking about ending your life?’ you’re communicating that you can handle either answer.”

Mr Crinall said the program would create a more healthy, connected and supportive environment at the schools and connect students at risk to other community services.

He said there was a misconception that talking about suicide encouraged it.

“Actually the opposite is true,” he said.

“If people talk and seek help, there are more successful outcomes.”

Mr Gormlie said there were 9500 road fatalities and 1500 homicides during the 10 years to 2012.

There were 22,000 suicides in the same period.

“Our goal is to actually address what is people living in silent desperation in the community,” he said.

GRAFFITI scrawled on signage at Ermha meant much more than your average tag.

Vandals wrote the message “stop suicide plz” outside the south east mental health service’s Dandenong office.

Ermha service development manager Samuel Crinall said it was a reasonable point to make.

“We’re not in a rush to remove it. We think it’s a good message,” he said.

“It’s a deeply concerning issue for the community.”

And Ermha is doing its best to meet the request.

It’s partnering with Life Central to seek funding for a pilot across at least four secondary schools in the south east. They’ll take independently assessed findings to the Federal Government.

Life Central CEO Drew Gormlie said it was likely the graffiti vandal had lost a loved one to suicide and was also suicidal themselves.

“People that have known somebody who has ended their life, their risk of suicide goes up significantly,” he said.

“We’re excited about the prospect of affecting our communities in such a positive way and confident that sooner or later that’s going to happen.”

The program will train teachers, staff and parents to identify students at risk of taking their lives.

Suicide Safer Communities president Debra Croft developed the program they will be using and will be one of the key trainers.

“The likelihood is that people are in such a difficult emotional and mental place that they can’t bring themselves to actually tell someone that they’re at risk,” Mr Gormlie said.

“So the goal is to be aware of that non-verbal communication.

“It’s a risk to tell somebody because the consequences of that, for instance, if you’re in a work scenario could be that you lose your job.

“You could get rejected or ostracised if you’re a school kid.”

Mr Gormlie said most people at risk said there was no one to talk to and no one who understood.

Hallam resident Basil Harrison has called on council to install more speed bumps in Hinrichsen Drive after another car ploughed through his front fence. 133129 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS

Plea after crash

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A HALLAM grandfather has implored Casey Council to install more speed bumps in Hinrichsen Drive, after a car ploughed through his front fence on Tuesday afternoon.

It’s the second time in three years that a car has crashed through Basil Harrison’s front fence in Appilla Close, a deadend street which runs off Hinrichsen Drive.

Mr Harrison was sitting on his bed using his computer tablet when he heard a “big bang”.

Mr Harrison thought it was thunder but when he looked out the window he saw a car had reversed through his fence while trying to do a U-turn, around 2.45pm last Tuesday.

“My grandkids had just

moved from the driveway,” Mr Harrison said.

“They could have been killed.”

Mr Harrison said it was constantly hard to sleep at night because his street was always used as a playground for hoons.

“It’s the worst road in the world,” he said.

Council last year installed a speed bump in Hinrichsen Drive, near Keppel Drive, after a 100-signature petition was present to the City of Casey last year.

But Mr Harrison said more were desperately needed near the turn off to his street.

City of Casey Acting Manager Transport Anitha Ajay said the council will “investigate” the potential installation

of additional “traffic calming measures” in Hinrichsen Drive, following consultation with residents “later this year”.

“Council has previously identified one section of Hinrichsen Drive where design works were undertaken and a speed hump was installed on the northern approach to the intersection of Hinrichsen Drive/ Keppel Drive,” Mr Ajay said.

“A report on the LTM Program and review of locations for traffic calming measures was considered by the council at its meeting on 19 August 2014.

“Hinrichsen Drive has been identified as a location which warrants consideration of treatments through the Local Traffic Management (LTM) Program. “

Countering the creep A 21-YEAR-OLD Narre Warren woman who allegedly spotted a “creepy” older man touching her younger sister in a Fountain Gate lolly shop said she was shaken by the encounter, which ended in a second physical assault.

The woman, who had taken her 10-year-old sister to Discount Lollie Shop before heading to the movies, said the man approached them at about 2.50pm on Tuesday 13 January.

“He was just standing there staring at us in the same aisle the whole time. I didn’t want to look at him or give him any reason to talk to us,” the shaken older sister, who did not want to be identified, recalled.

She said she told her young-

er sister she was going to the next aisle but a sense of dread flooded over her which drew her back into the aisle, where she found the man’s arm around her sister.

“He took the first chance he could get to talk to her,” she said.

The man, who the 10-yearold said was telling her she was ‘a good girl’, forcefully grabbed the 21-year-old girl when she tried to pull her sister away.

“I told him we were leaving and he got a tight grip on my arm and told us to ‘stay here and you’re not going anywhere’,” the older sister alleged.

“I finally got him off my arm ... I was so scared I ran out of the store straight away.”

The 21-year-old said she

returned to the store days later to report the incident and was told their security camera did not cover the aisle where the alleged incident occurred.

The girls’ mum, who works in Pakenham, said she planned to report the incident to police in hope they might find CCTV footage of the man.

“You just don’t know what could have happened ... he could have grabbed her and gone off,” she said.

The man has been described as being very short, in his early sixties, of Indian or Sri-Lanka appearance with white hair and no facial hair.

A security representative from Fountain Gate Westfield said they could only issue CCTV images under police authority.

PLUS AMAZING 3 NIGHT Casey Mayor Mick Morland and author Michael Pryor with the winners of Council's Fresh Words Young Writers Competition.

Young writers get fresh READING and writing won’t die if Casey’s youth has anything to say about it.

Last year students throughout the municipality were given the chance to prove their writing talents as part of Casey’s Fresh Words Young Writers Competition.

Council held an awards ceremony to congratulate the winners, selected from 164 entries across four different categories - Creative Writing, Poetry and Lyrics, English as a Second Language, and

Honouring the Anzac Centenary.

‘No matter what you do in life, the ability to express yourself well will always be a great asset,” Casey Mayor Mick Morland said.

“It is remarkably easy to tap out a witty remark on Twitter or leave a thoughtprovoking comment on Facebook.

“It’s much more challenging to take a blank sheet of paper or empty screen and create something where there

was nothing, to capture the reader’s imagination and conjure a connection, knowing that your words are being judged.

Author Michael Pryor was guest speaker at the ceremony.

Winners of the competition included Courtney Ould, Russell Reader, Priyanka Simini, Katie Corley, Thomas Harris, Adrian Harper-Gomm, Mansoor Ali, Adilah Hussaini, Navena Segar and Matthew Harper-Gomm.

POLICE are still searching for a man seen fleeing a fire at the abandoned Endeavour Hills Secondary College gym in November.

Casey CIU detectives believe he entered the disused gym in Amalfi Drive just after 11.30pm, and fled shortly before flames engulfed the building.

A female witness spotted the man running from the school and then saw a second man chase after him.

Police are yet to identify both men.

It’s believed the alleged of-

fender ran down an embankment on Power Road and fled across the Monash Freeway.

He is described as Caucasian in appearance and aged in his late teens to early twenties, with dark hair.

He was wearing a black jumper at the time.

Police want to speak to anyone with information regarding the fire, especially the witness who chased the man away.

This witness is described as Caucasian in appearance and was wearing a black longsleeved top, a fluoro work vest and black shorts.

He is not believed to be involved in the fire.

Brigades from Dandenong, Hallam, Casey, Hampton Park, Narre Warren, Frankston and Scoresby - roughly 14 trucks in total - attended the fire around 11.45pm on Thursday 20 November last year.

It’s understood the blaze took an hour to bring under control and a further three hours to extinguish completely.

2 Whirly Birds

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD CHRISTMAS isn’t easy for the Murphys.

Ever since Paula Murphy’s 20-year-old daughter, Maddy, was found dead at her Pakenham unit more than a year ago, her family hasn’t had much to celebrate.

Maddy’s body was discovered on 23 October, 2013, and homicide detectives continue to investigate the death.

But last month the Murphys were given the chance to smile again, thanks to the team at Melboards in Hallam.

John Sanders, Max Croaker and Richard Halpin, from Melboards, helped provide a Thomas the Tank Engine bed for Maddy’s two-year-old son, Noah - a Christmas present to cherish.

Carpenter Warwick Deking and his partner Sue, good friends of the Murphys, also helped build the bed for Noah.

“A close friend of the family made it. Everything was donated right down to the cushions on it,” Paula said last week.

“Our friend knew how mad the boys were on Thomas anyway. In conversations he just decided this was something he wanted to do to.”

Paula said the family were poised with cameras at Christmas time to capture the moment

BEAT the HEAT this SUMMER! Noah, right, and Brydon were ecstatic to see the new Thomas the Tank Engine bed at Christmas time. when Noah came into his room to find the Thomas the Tank Engine bed inside.

“We were all waiting there with the cameras,” she said.

“Noah does this shy thing at the moment where he has this grin and walks really slowly to whatever is in front of him, but it wasn’t too long until he and Brydon were jumping on the bed.

Brydon is Paula’s one-yearold son, who she now raises along with Noah.

Homicide detectives are still investigating Maddy’s death following the discovery of her body on 23 October 2013.

“Even after a year, there’s

still so many people thinking of Noah. Trying to help and do happy things for him,” Paula said.

“It’s hard to get through these times and you don’t think things will ever get better. You don’t know if you’re ever going to see anything happy again.

“So something like that was so refreshing, just to see Noah’s face.

“It’s a good thing; it’s a really good thing.”

Paula thanked everyone who had helped build and donate materials for the bed, including Sharon and Ian Glencross from the Paint Place in Cranbourne, and painters Noal Hunter and Eric Spokes.

Here for the journey with you ST John of God Berwick Hospital will be celebrating its 75th year of officially being a hospital in Berwick.

Many of the babies born at the hospital are second, third and even fourth generation babies.

Midwifery manager Joyce Coyle said that the care for the mothers and babies doesn’t just cover the days in hospital, but that staff are there from the moment a woman discovers she is pregnant to when they are discharged with their precious new child.

This journey often starts with a tour of the unit or an information session.

The information sessions run on the first Sunday of each month from 2pm.

An obstetrician hosts the event with a midwife and physiotherapist also giving a presentation.

Bookings can be made on 9709 1400.

Tours of our maternity unit and a chat with the midwives are available every Sunday at 1.30pm and every Tuesday at 8pm.

These do not require a booking.

Booking into the hospital can be done at any time, whether it is a face-to-face meeting with a midwife or an over the phone consultation.

During a pregnancy the 24hour hotline is available on 9709 1400 and no question, at any time, is too small.

There is a pregnancy assessment service which is available for anything related to pregnancy health, whether it be a blood pressure check or a doctor’s referral to check the baby’s heart.

Once the baby is born the mantra is “Mother the Mothers”.

Joyce is very keen to ensure all our mothers have their needs attended to.

A recent addition is the afternoon teas including cheese platters and gourmet mini cakes.

Happy Hour was introduced following feedback to Joyce from ex-patients who were keen for the foods that are denied in pregnancy!

There are four lactation consultants onsite for assistance with any breast feeding issues.

The Breastfeeding Clinic is available to mothers after they go home.

Book an appointment at the clinic to get more breastfeeding guidance.

Fathers are welcome to stay at no extra costs.

Meals can be provided for a small cost. It is important that Dad is involved in baby care and settling.

A level two nursery is staffed by expert midwives and can take babies from 34 weeks, 1500gms or those needing a little extra care even though they are full term.

Early discharge, for those who would like it, is available with a home visiting service within 30km of the hospital.

A special bonus package has been put together including a restaurant lunch, gold class movie tickets, massage

and much more.

A hotline is also there for mums after discharge and, again, no question is too small at any time of the day.

Breastfeeding Clinics for any mums still requiring some support with breastfeeding are held two or three days each week and a lactation consultant is available by appointment.

The Raphael Centre is there for any of mums or families and those of the Casey and Cardinia

community if there are any postnatal depression issues.

A GP or obstetrician can assist mums in obtaining a referral for this clinic.

This is St John of God Berwick Hospital Outreach service which is run for the community at a minimal cost to the families.

For further information please call St John of God Berwick Hospital (Maternity Unit) on 9709 1400.

Club keeps them coming back for more NARRE Warren Calisthenics Club, continues to grow and has enjoyed another successful 2014 competition season.

As the club logo promotes, ‘Make friends for life’ and this is what its members do.

Last year marked many milestones for a number of its girls and it is a credit to the club that many of the seniors of 2014 were the club’s ‘tinies’ in 2000.

The club has girls who have been members for 10, 15, 20, 30 and 35 years.

The club has had success year after year across all sections, but is proud that it has kept the girls at the club doing a sport they love for so long.

Calisthenics develops strength, flexibility, deportment and co-ordination through its physical items - march, freearm, rods and clubs - while at the same time enhancing grace and poise in aesthetics (an item with elements of ballet) and encouraging girls to express themselves and perform with confidence through singing and dancing.

Calisthenics is such a diverse sport and a team sport.

The club welcomes new members to come and have a go.

The first three classes in February are free for new members to come and have a go and classes are offered to girls from four years of age to masters, 27 years of age plus. The club’s masters are in their sixth year.

Former cala girls or those who have experience as a dancer or who are just keen to give it a try can drop by on 2 February and join.

The club competes at local competitions and the juniors, intermediates and seniors go to the Royal South Street competitions in Ballarat (the highlight for every girl - which is performing at Her Majesty’s Theatre).

It holds weekly classes in the performing arts hall at Fleetwood Primary School, Fleetwood Drive, Narre Warren.

For class times or more information call president Marilyn Howlett on 0468 492 611 or 9795 1298.

See the website for more details www.narrewarrencalisthenicsclub.com.

Narre Warren Calisthenics Club encourages young performers to express themselves and perform with confidence through singing and dancing.

Australia Day

Day of national pride

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE Casey community will once again be able to display its national pride at a number of events on Australia Day next week.

The City of Casey is supporting four free events on Monday, held in Berwick, Hampton Park, Cranbourne East and Tooradin.

A range of activities including flag-raising ceremonies, children’s entertainment, multicultural performances and sausage sizzles will be occurring in the municipality throughout the day.

“Australia Day is the perfect opportunity to get together with family and friends and celebrate what’s great about this country and being Australian,” Casey Mayor Mick Morland said.

“More specifically, the local events celebrate the great people and places that make Casey a wonderful and diverse municipality to live, work and play.

“You might like to head along to Hampton Park for an Aussie breakfast and to watch multicultural entertainment or to the beautiful Pioneers Park in Berwick to enjoy musical performances, whip-cracking, vintage machinery and wood chopping displays.

“Or why not start your day in Cranbourne at the Passport to Casey’s Cultural Heritage Showcase, before finishing your night under the stars at the open air sunset cinema in Tooradin.

For Australia Day in Berwick, the Rotary Club will be holding its renowned festival at Pioneers Park from 10am to 3pm.

Across the way, the Hampton Park Progress Association will hold an Aussie breakfast from 9am to 12pm at Arthur Wren Hall.

INVITE TO CELEBRATE

INSPIRED HOMES

FROM PAGE 1.

INSPIRED Homes is celebrating its 10th anniversary – and giving new homebuyers an opportunity to save $15,000 with its Celebrations package.

The locally based company was started 10 years ago by managing director Andrew Stickley.

He had a vision to create homes that were different in concept and performance.

Each home is designed in partnership with customers to give them an unheard of level of flexibility.

In fact, Andrew reports that the company has never actually built the same house twice.

“Personal requirements, budgets, land sizes, shapes and orientation are all variables that should be considered for an optimal outcome,” he said.

In a world where every estate seems to offer variations on a generic theme, Inspired Homes really does live up to its slogan of being “refreshingly different”.

Online Creator Would-be buyers can explore the difference themselves by clicking onto the Inspired Homes website and exploring the Home Creator tool.

It brings the Inspired concept to life and opens buyers’ minds to new possibilities.

Before building, each online layout is manually adjusted or combined with different components to create a unique design.

Celebrations The 10th Birthday Sale offers $15,000

of extra value at no extra cost.

It includes Contour evaporative cooling, LED downlights, an aluminium alfresco sliding door and a $6000 Colour Room voucher.

Competitive pricing, house and land packages, build quality and practical layouts all make Inspired Homes excellent value.

But perhaps the real secret lies in the flexibility of its modular concept.

Tractors pull in the crowds THIS year’s Tooradin Tractor Pull and Truck Show has been dubbed as being bigger and better than ever.

Event organiser Allan Reeve said they had the “biggest crowd that’s ever been there”.

“That’s what people were telling me,” he said.

The 16-year-old event revved up Rutter Reserve in Tooradin last weekend much to the delight of hundreds of people.

“There were cars banked up on the other side of Tooradin,” Mr Reeve said.

The organiser said he would put

down the huge numbers to advertising prior to the event and said “everyone knew about it”.

He said the tractors were a huge hit.

“They were a drawcard, the crowd really started to come in around 2pm,” he said.

“There were around 43 tractors and 86 trucks.

“The weather was nice to us, too, not too hot and not too cold.”

He said the entire committee worked well together as a team and the group will look forward to an event just as big next year.

Burnouts were part of the show at the Tooradin Tractor Pull. 133420

THE aim of the Head Lice Clinic is simple - to help people get rid of head lice and teach them how to remain lice free.

Owner Miriam Cormack said the clinic offers treatment and removal of head lice and education on prevention techniques.

“Most over-the-counter lice treatments are no longer effective and people are spending lots of time and money on treatments that don’t work,” she said.

“Our treatment is 100 percent effective.”

They stock head lice prevention products and are located locally providing discrete and effective service.

“We are the only head

lice treatment salon in the area,” Miriam explained.

“We use specially formulated products that kill all the head lice but don’t contain poison. We offer free hair checks if people aren’t sure that head lice is the issue.”

You can find the Head Lice Clinic in Beaconsfield at the corner of Beaconsfield and Emerald Road and the Old Princes Highway.

They are open Monday to Friday from 9am to 7pm and Saturday 9am to 5pm by appointment only.

Branding new Bridge

By CASEY NEILL THE Bridge has unveiled new branding for three services that are supporting people with disabilities in the south-east.

Assistant Social Services Minister Mitch Fifield launched The Bridge Works, The Bridge Connects and The Bridge Employment on 15 December at a special event at supported employment service The Bridge Works in Dandenong.

The Bridge, formerly known as Options Victoria, has been operating for more than 40 years and provides employment and community services to people with disability throughout the region.

The Bridge Works is a supported employment service in Dandenong with more than 40 staff with a disability that provides warehousing and logistics.

The Bridge Connects includes day support, respite, social and leisure activities and The Bridge Employment provides job placement and support.

More than 200 guests watched a short film starring supported employee Jono Burggraaf who uses The Bridge Connects’ getaways service.

The film showed a day in Jono’s life, his passion for his job, his independence in travelling, working and friendships, and his love of reading the weather report on a local radio station.

The celebration concluded with Mr Fifield and supported employee Giuseppe di Benedetto unveiling plaques for the three new service names on stage.

“Today we’re here to celebrate the good things about The Bridge Works,

Top: Adam and Fiona at the celebration. 131046 Right: Helen spoke about how well her daughter is doing at The Bridge. 131046 Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS and the benefits of supported employment to the people involved,” The Bridge CEO Phillip Toovey said.

“The Bridge Works supports and em-

ploys nearly 50 people, so we’re a small part of this industry, but when it is comes to the workers, it certainly is all about quality - and when it comes to quality of

services to business, it’s the same thing quality work.”

Visit www.thebridgeinc.org.au for more information.

Driver on drugs caught in street A DISQUALIFIED female driver is likely to be charged on summons after she was allegedly caught driving a stolen car while on drugs in Cranbourne last week.

Police allege the 31year-old Frankston North woman was stopped by the Highway Patrol after they detected a stolen Ford Focus on Sladen Street about 6.30pm on Thursday.

The woman underwent a drug test and returned a positive result. She is also believed to have allegedly been driving while disqualified.

The woman is expected to be charged on summons with the theft of a motor vehicle, handling the proceeds of crime, drug driving and driving while disqualified.

Anyone with any information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential crime report at www.crimestoppersvic. com.au.

Entertainment �� Dining, what’s on, bands and more…

Station’s festival of song means you best dial in IT’S time to stay tuned in.

This week Casey Radio is broadcasting live for each day of the Tamworth Country Music Festival, transmitting from the centre of town.

A range of Casey musicians are participating in the festival including Cathy Dobson, Sonyta Trahar and Nia Robertson, while stars James Blundell, Beccy Cole, Adam Brand, Kayla Bell and Jared Porter are also performing at the gig.

Casey councillor Wayne Smith, who is helping to cover the festival for Casey Radio, said the show has been afforded a three-hour slot each day, compared to last year’s hourly session.

“We’ve set up the studio in Tamworth and all the performers and artists come to us,” Cr Smith

said, on the first day of the festival.

“We have another four days in store and we’re trying to feature all the Casey people on the radio show.

“Casey Radio must have earned a bit of reputation over the years. We’re doing a daily three hour show compared to one hour last year.

“Publishers are throwing their names at us.”

The Casey Radio volunteer crew consists of Cr Smith, Bob Halsall, Casey muso Andrew Swift and Bryce Eishold.

The Tamworth Country Music Festival will run until 25 January.

THE last month or so is always a busy time for most, but for one Cranbourne mother it’s been a total whirlwind.

Mother of two and pageant contestant, Mrs Australia Becky Branca recently returned from China where she attended the Mrs Globe competition.

The Cranbourne North resident said it went really well.

“It was such a fantastic and rewarding experience,” she said.

“You know when you feel like you’re in the right place at the right time.”

Ms Branca was overseas for just over 10 days and said it was “full on”.

“Each day we had a full production on live TV,” she said.

“I was in the paper nearly every day.”

The pageant has a high profile in China and Ms Branca said it was huge, with her face on billboards all across the city.

The Mrs Australia won “Most Helpful” during her time over there and said as an Australian it was a great privilege. Mrs South Africa won the pageant overall.

“Most Helpful is like their Miss Congeniality,” she said.

“We hold ourselves in high regard of helping others.”

A proud supporter of a number of charities, including Pink Hope and Bully Zero, she hoped to raise her profile further and one day work from

Cranbourne Gardens director Chris Russell said the day had quickly become a must-do for families throughout the area.

“Now in its fifth year, the family fun day is a great day out for the whole family,” he said.

“Not only is it lots of fun for the kids, it’s also a great opportunity to chat with the gardens’ experts and get lots of hints and tips about plant selection, water use, and how to keep your garden looking good in a dry climate.”

Upper Beaconsfield’s Kyle Gibbs had this very ball on a string on Saturday, taking his first ever hat-trick against Cardinia. 133308 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS

Kyle misses the moment

By DAVID NAGEL TAKING a hat-trick is a moment for a sportsman to savour, like a golfer having a hole-inone or a jockey passing the clock-tower at Flemington and heading for the finish line in the Melbourne Cup. Only a lucky few get to experience the feeling.

Upper Beaconsfield’s Kyle Gibbs took a hat-trick against Cardinia in their Premier Division clash on Saturday ... and he still doesn’t know the exhilarating and unique feeling of a completing a bowler’s holygrail.

You see Kyle and his teammates - they didn’t even know he had achieved it.

Brought on in the 36th over by his skipper Chris Savage, the talented 20-year-old left hander took the wicket of Cardinia coach Simon Parrott with the final delivery of his first over.

He then had Mark Andolfatto caught with the first ball of his second over, before Brayden Browne hit one high to Jayden Joyce at cover, who accepted the catch and the

hat-trick was complete.

“It was all pretty anti-climactic really, because we didn’t even know,” Gibbs said.

“Alex Nooy was walking out to bat and we were talking about tactics and getting ready for the hat-trick ball. He looked at us and said ‘What are you blokes going on about, you’ve already got it’, and that’s when it started to sink in. We tried for the double-hat-trick and I nearly caught the edge but he missed it.”

Gibbs, who has been on four or five hat-tricks before, started his cricket career with Pakenham Upper/Toomuc in the then under-12s. The next season he followed his step-father Glenn Kilburn to Upper Beaconsfield and, despite Kilburn moving on, has remained a loyal Maroon ever since.

“We lived on Stoney Creek Road, right next to the ground, and I went to primary school at Upper Beaconsfield,” Gibbs said.

“I live in Doveton now but I’m not going anywhere, there are a lot of good people around the club and I enjoy playing

with blokes that I went to school and came up through the juniors with. It’s all about the mateship factor really.”

Gibbs said that despite some inconsistencies with the Maroons’ batting this season, he can see some promising signs under the leadership of Savage.

“Sav’s the sort of coach that you want to play with and achieve with,” he said.

“He’s had a real positive influence on the group, we’re still young, and the main goal now is to stick together and try to achieve some success for the club down the track.”

Gibbs, whose hat-trick was just the third in the club’s history in the top flight, finished with figures of 3/10 from his two overs, backing up his 3/13 off five overs against Tooradin a week earlier.

“The key for me now is to try and get some early wickets and have an impact at the top of the order instead of getting wickets in the death overs,” he said.

And when he does get the chance and takes wickets ... hopefully he can saviour the moment!

Cavs are looking strong

By JARROD POTTER EARLY signs are extremely promising for the Casey Cavaliers after smashing through their first pre-season practice match.

With the Coburg Giants sending out the request for a January practice match, Casey was more than happy to take up the opportunity and excelled on Sunday at home in the 64-42 win.

The Cavaliers’ new look senior men’s roster was tested for the first time against external opposition and three things became clear in particularly.

They’re tall, they’re fast and most importantly, the Cavaliers have a lot of weapons in their arsenal.

There were no punches pulled in a particularly bruising and high intensity practice match as rebounds were contested like rugby scrums and the tempo never shifted off full throttle as Casey built the early margin and held onto it comfortably in the pre-season skirmish.

The Cavaliers had options upon their options - four players tall enough to play centre, three swingmen, three fleet-footed 1-2 guards and all this did not include newly recruited Dandenong 205cm NBL/SEABL forward Brent Hobba - who was still away on holidays.

Hobba and Witherden will stand as a tantalising insideoutside tandem alongside the returning Jay McMillan - who will play the majority of the Big V season before heading to college for his junior year at Colorado Mesa University.

Running the tallest Cavaliers’ offence yet, coach Stewart Baird threw Witherden, Ash Szalek, Dean Johnson and Lester Strong on court three at a time to give Coburg nothing but big headaches in the front court while Steve Michalski, Brad Szalek and newly recruited speedster James DeNeefe ran the ball excellently.

Michalski returned from the Christmas break lean, quick and hungry for the hard ball - which was all the more impressive considering his wedding, to Gabie, was held the day before.

“Firstly it was good to get up and down against someone else,” coach Baird said after the 22-point win.

“You practice against each other all summer and it’s nice to get up and down against other opposition.

“We deliberately came in with not a lot of structure - I just wanted get the ball through guys’ hands and see who would produce for me.

The first, but not last, of many powerful rebounds this year came on Sunday for Casey's import centre Lester Picture: JARROD POTTER Strong. 133236 “Overall we stuck pretty much to our rules and all in all I’m pretty happy.”

The Cavaliers wore black armbands in memory of Michalski’s mother and longtime Cavaliers volunteer Debra Spinks, who passed away earlier this year.

Baird praised Michalski for his commitment to the team - as the guard chose to never miss a training session or the practice match, despite a trying few months where he rescheduled his wedding in an attempt to have his mother there, but she sadly passed away less than a fortnight before the big day.

“Stevie’s last two weeks with his mum passing away and then the wedding - not even two weeks later - he hasn’t missed a practice and he’s been amazing and the guys have been amazing the way they’ve rallied around him,” Baird said.

“The whole club has and it’s a perfect example of what’s great about this club - everyone is part of the family and when he needed us to be there for him, everyone stepped up.”

The Cavaliers Youth Men also faced Coburg on Sunday in a Big V practice match double header.

All taken by storm

By JARROD POTTER SPITTING rain and a howling wind did not curb the Dandenong District Cricket Association’s under-21s as they powered towards the VMCU grand final with a 67-run win over Eastern Cricket Association.

Playing at Casey Fields, after the previously scheduled Victorian Metropolitan Cricket Union (VMCU) semifinal was washed out last weekend, the DDCA went in to bat first and had to rebuild after the top order failed to dig in against Eastern’s attack.

Cranbourne’s Jordan Cleland (26) and the skipper Dylan Quirk (22) started off strongly, but when both holed out to Tim Wilton (2/29), the cause was left to North Dandenong’s Clay McCartney, who backed up 95 in the previous round with a matchdefining 70.

McCartney held out as the order collapsed around him, as the DDCA fell to 5/77 in the 20th over when Ryan Quirk (8) was found short of his crease.

Jordan Hammond (20 not out), Travis D’Souza (14) and Jagveer Hayer (12) ensured McCartney had enough support for the Norths allrounder to raise the bat on his second half-century in as many VMCU games and guide the tally to 9/203 by the 40-over completion.

The response in the growing gloom was too difficult for Eastern CA to muster as Hallam Kalora Park’s Hayer - who hit 96 for the Hawks on Saturday against Cranbourne - ran through the order with his left arm orthodox spinners.

His 6/21 from eight overs was more than enough to run through Eastern for 136 and seal the DDCA’s emphatic win.

“I’m pretty happy to be honest we were 5 for about 70 so we finished really well and bowled even better,” Quirk said.

“Clay was really good - he got 95 last game so he’s in pretty good knick and he timed his innings pretty well.

“Big boundaries and slow outfield and I reckon the wicket had a little bit in it too - they set a pretty good field and they bowled pretty well.”

Brettle's school in the pool

By JARROD POTTER

Flying through for a quick single, Clay McCartney held the ship together for the DDCA under-21s with a Picture: JARROD POTTER well-compiled 70. 133235 Quirk gave thumbs up to all of his bowlers as he thought no-one lowered their colours as the bowling unit on whole was exceptional.

The DDCA is through to the grand final and will face Diamond Valley CA on Sunday 1 February at Jubilee Park (Russell Lucas Oval) in Ringwood and Quirk rates his side’s chances of taking home the trophy

against a traditionally tough opponent.

“They’re walkways pretty strong and we played them in a semi last year after they knocked us off round one, so it would be interesting to see how many of them are still in that side,” Quirk said.

“I think our bowling is the strongest in the competition which holds

us in pretty good stead.

“Definitely get to enjoy the carnival a lot more when we’re winning - especially on the Sunday they can drag on a touch - you enjoy it when the team is doing well and enjoy the company and we’re pretty happy to be out there.”

The match starts at 11am next Sunday.

CASEY TigerSharks surged to success in the Swimming Victoria Open Championships over the weekend as medals and fast times were proudly attained.

The best of the TigerSharks’ brood was Beaconsfield’s Holly Brettle, who returned to the top of the podium in her beloved 400m individual medley.

Brettle, 21, has brushed off all her prior injury concerns to claim the longcourse title in 4.47.92 ahead of Meagan Ramsay and Helena Gasson.

The Beaconsfield battler also earned a bronze medal in the 200m individual medley and finished fifth in the 200m breaststroke final to round out a successful campaign at the Melbourne Sports and Aquatic Centre this week.

Josh Beaver, from Tooradin, was the other Casey TigerShark to sink his teeth into the racing - finishing second in the 200m backstroke - edged out by .2 of a second by Mitch Larkin - and two third place finishes in the 50m backstroke and 100m backstroke.

Matson Lawson, third place in the 400m freestyle, and Tyrone Dobrunz, fifth in the 100m breastroke and sixth in the 200m breaststroke, rounded out the Casey success.

Of the younger TigerSharks, Bowen Gough held his own in the open standard as he fifth in the 200m backstroke behind team mates Beaver and Lawson and earned eighth in the 200m butterfly.

Kyle Young - who finished seventh in the 1500m freestyle - and Natalie Gray - achieving 13th in 400m freestyle and 14th in 800m freestyle - gave good signs to come for the TigerSharks’ middle/long distance ambitions in the pool.

The TigerSharks have a couple of months to train up before the heading to Sydney in April for the biggest meet of the year, the Australian Swimming Championships at SOPAC.

South-east will be a blast BLASTING the boundaries will be the next generation of south-east cricketers with the start of this year’s Milo T20 Blast program.

Milo T20 Blast bridges the gap between Milo in2Cricket and junior club cricket.

The program introduces primary aged boys and girls to real games of T20 in a fun, inclusive and action packed environment where kids can develop the skills learnt from Milo in2Cricket and build their passion for Australia’s favourite sport.

“Going from Milo in2Cricket to juniors is a pretty big step, but this makes it so much easier,” Cricket Australia senior game and market development manager Matt Dwyer said.

Running at two south-east locations next month - Berwick Fields Primary School and Barry Simon Reserve in Endeavour Hills - the program is focused on participation as every child gets to bat for four overs and bowl two.

They also go to “skills zones” when they are not involved in the play.

“The format is a fantastic learning environment where kids have fun and develop confidence to progress to junior cricket,’ Cricket Australia’s junior participation specialist Kirsty Clark said.

More than 120,000 boys and girls around the country will take part in Milo T20 Blast School Cups at 600 sessions across Australia.

Hawks knock it on

By JARROD POTTER DDCA Turf 1 - Round 8 (day 1) THE gauntlet has finally been thrown to Cranbourne as an unlikely contender stepped up to post the biggest score against the Eagles this season.

CRANBOURNE v HALLAM KALORA PARK THE thorn in Cranbourne’s side was the young Hallam Kalora Park (6/266) opening tandem Ben Hilliard (101) and Jagveer Hayer (96), who managed to finally put the Eagles on the back foot this season. The duo had the match by the throat as they bludgeoned 197 for the opening wicket as the openers powered towards their maiden centuries.

Once Hayer fell - agonisingly short of his maiden DDCA century the advantage was well and truly with the Hawks and the fun could begin.

Once Hilliard reached his century.

It’s been quite a while since Hilliard got this close to triple figures, having to trace his history all the way back to under-13s where he was stranded 95 not out against Coomoora. He made sure there would be no missed centuries this week as he smashed through for the ton before finally succumbing.

Cranbourne opener Cam Kelly (3/54) started to churn through the Hawks’ order with Steve Spoljaric (1/57) and Te Ahu Davis (1/73) also grinding through the overs. Cory Booth (27) and Amila Perera (16 not out) had free licence to smash the last few runs into the ledger as the overs started ticking down.

Hallam Kalora Park called it a day and will send Cranbourne in to chase a whopping 267 runs on Saturday which would be the Hawks’ largest total this season and also become the biggest margin Cranbourne has been set to hunt down.

BERWICK v PARKFIELD A ROLLER-COASTER ride at Arch Brown Reserve left Berwick (0/13) with the honours on day one as Parkfield threw it away not once, but thrice. The opening initiative failed spectacularly as the top-order crumbled.

By JARROD POTTER PREMIER CRICKET - Round 13 and 14 (One day and Twenty20)

It was a Goodes day out for Berwick skipper Jarrod Goodes, charging in to claim 4/29 against Parkfield. 133230 Picture: JARROD POTTER Leaving the effort to Nilochana Perera (54) and Travis D’Souza (35), the duo notched 85 together and looked set to turn the tables on the Bears before a pre-tea collapse.

Losing four wickets in quick succession - the Perera/D’Souza partnership was broken by a careless “yesno” run-out before Brad Baptist (0), Perera and Matt Aslett (0) succumbed.

It left the last battle to be fought by the Parkfield tail as Mike Willmott (31 not out) and captain Shane Bell (25) turned a sub-par tally into something fortified.

Jarrod Goodes (4/29) and Dushan Wickramarathna (2/29) ran through the Lions’ share of the visitor’s order, leaving it up to Adam Watson (6 not out) and Brad James (6 not out) to see off the new ball and get to stumps unscathed at 0/13.

Berwick is 0/13 overnight off its 10 overs.

COOMOORA v HEINZ SOUTHERN DISTRICTS REMAINING in the balance, Coomoora (142) can still escape with its inaugural win of the season as Heinz Southern Districts (5/99)

lurched towards the first-innings victory. Joel Robertson (36) showed the needed grit to push the Kangaroos past 100 and towards something marginally respectable as Heinz tandem Paul Stockdale (4/62) and Michael Davies (3/23) razed any batsman who crossed their path.

The Cobra retaliation was comfortable before Adam Semmens (49) and Shehan Bandaranayake (22) fell to Saliya Saman (2/18) and Robertson (2/22), leaving Heinz’s lower order exposed with 43 left to attain next week.

Gibbs’ hat-trick a highlight for Beaconsfield

By DAVID NAGEL A RARE hat-trick from Upper Beaconsfield (137) medium-pacer Kyle Gibbs was the highlight of a surprisingly competitive affair between the Maroons and WGCA ladder-leader Cardinia (6/155) at Upper Beaconsfield on Saturday.

Gibbs joins Pakenham young-gun Zac Chaplin on the unique honourroll this season after claiming the wickets of Simon Parrott (26), Mark Andolfatto (2) and Brayden Browne (0).

“It’s something you dream about as a bowler I suppose but it happened so quickly, I wasn’t even expecting to bowl,” a humble Gibbs said after his achievement.

Gibbs’ late flurry, at the end of the 36th and start of the 38th overs, couldn’t stop the Bulls from posting a competitive total with their mercurial skipper Neil Barfuss (78 not out) once again leading the way.

Barfuss and Parrott were joined by Daniel Strahan (28) as the three main contributors to the innings, while Gibbs (3/10) and Tommy Tyrrell (2/23) led an under-rated Maroons’ attack.

The home-side started well in reply with Robert North (57) and Tyrrell (21) adding a 36-run stand to their

Ups and downs for the Swans

Jarrod Williams was in great touch for Beaconsfield, scoring 48 and then taking 2/17 in the Tigers WGCA Premier Division clash with Picture: ROB CAREW Emerald. 133166 debut century opening partnership against Tooradin last week.

North’s wicket was the key one for the Bulls, who looked behind the eight-ball as the home side worked its way to 5/134. But the Maroons’ lower order remains brittle - and it fractured in a big way after North’s dismissal - losing 5/3, including the last four wickets for no runs to throw away a

golden opportunity.

Ben Darose (3/13), Barfuss (3/20) and Travis Welsh (2/26) stood firm under fire for the Bulls.

Kooweerup’s (5/197) champion opener Chris O’Hara (80 not out) has piloted the Demons to one of the wins of the season in a last-ball thriller against Tooradin (5/196).

Needing four runs to win off the

last two balls, O’Hara lofted Ash Adams back over his head for two before top-edging the last ball of the match past wicket-keeper Tom Hussey’s gloves to give his side a memorable victory. Hussey (64) and Cal O’Hare (58 not out) had earlier batted beautifully for the Seagulls while Michael Giles (33) and Matt Bright (32) played key roles in the Demons’ run-chase.

Merinda Park (6/156) has killed off the finals hopes of Pakenham (9/151), rolling the Lions in their daynight contest at Toomuc Reserve.

Andrew Martin (42), Anthony Craddock (36) and Glen Ward (33) were the mainstays of the Cobras innings before Craig Boswell (2/28) and Dylan Cuthbertson (2/34) produced some magic with the ball to restrict the Lions to a losing score. Pakenham captain Jason Williams (40) nearly got his side across the line.

Beaconsfield (8/129) veterans Don Kerslake and Geoff Bliss celebrated their 300th games, but the party was spoiled by Emerald (6/131) at Perc Allison Oval.

Nathan Bownds (3/18) was superb for the Bombers early before Mark Alenson (49) steered the visitors to their third win of the season. Jarrod Williams (48 and 2/17) was best for the still winless Tigers.

CASEY-SOUTH MELBOURNE (8/166) was gallant in defeat against Camberwell (7/168), but made amends with a Twenty20 triumph on Sunday.

With the top order succumbing simply - falling to 4/12 at one stage - the revival was spurred on by Tasmanian Tigers/Melbourne Stars all-rounder Clive Rose (46).

Rose and Shane Maggs (42) pushed the run rate along and kept the Magpies on the back foot.

Captain Chris Hall (31) also starred as he guided the tally to 166 by innings’ end.

Despite taking wickets in clumps - as Hall (3/19) and Cam Brown (2/22) struck in succession - Camberwell was able to eke out the win via Justin Lampard (65).

Twenty20 proved just as lucrative for the Swans on Sunday as Casey-South Melbourne (3/149) held on against Geelong (123). Dan Watson’s power-packed 51 off 39 balls - pushed advantage towards the visitors as Geelong could not run through the order.

Lachie Sperling (31 not out) and Clive Rose (29 not out) finished the innings in style to give Casey a chance at an unbeaten weekend.

Seeing off the Geelong top-order - taking wickets of Hayden Butterworth (30) and Josh McDonald (30) - Rose (4/12) made his mark on the middle order and spun the Swans towards a comfortable 26run win. Simon Black (3/14) and Watson (2/32) also helped push past Geelong in the sensational triumph.

Dandenong will now battle CaseySouth Melbourne in another cross-town derby, starting this weekend at Casey Fields.

Eagles slog it out to make sizeable tally VSDCA South East 1st XI - Round 9 (day 1) ENDEAVOUR Hills (193) virtually matched the Bulls to set a headache-induced chase for Brighton (180).

Starts through the top and middle order pushed through a sizeable tally, but no-one managed to convert their 20-30 into a big score to really tip the match in the Eagles’ favour.

Justin Merlino (48) fared best for the home side, as he carried on the strong start from Thomas Hafil (34) and Dayle Olson (28). Brighton started to shine as wickets fell in clumps at the

hands of James Harrod (4/35) and a superb 27over spell from Jack Rutter (4/92).

Richard Saniga (30 not out) shored up the lower order as the veteran all-rounder resisted a quick exit from the home field.

The chase was hampered from the get-go as Endeavour Hills claimed regular wickets against the Brighton order. Despite scoring its runs quickly - facing 59 overs for its 180 - the wicket column proved the difference maker for Brighton as Endeavour Hills dictated the tempo.

Not even the omission of captain Chris Periera

could stop the Eagles’ bowling attack as Vaughan Baxter (3/38), Saniga (3/41) and Daniel Wiles (2/18) chipped away at the visitors wicket-bywicket.

A 21-run last wicket partnership between Neil Bezuidenhout (21no) and Harrod (18) threatened to steal the victory, but Shane Peake (2/56) delivered the finishing blow to push the Eagles back into the top six.

The victory grants Endeavour Hills fifth spot on the VSDCA South East ladder and will host Malvern in a round 10 two-day match.

NARRE WARREN BOWLS DIVISION 2 playing at home against Clayton in round 13 had a dismal day in Saturday with two rinks up and two down for a 28-shot loss 68-86.

The team is still holding on to third spot on the ladder but will need to show a big improvement in the coming weeks to stay in the fight for a finals berth.

Wilma Haringsma, Geoff Miller, Iain Stevenson, Ian Brotherton 11-35. Paul O’Day, Keith Mark, Wilma Stevenson, Jimmy Millar 10-29.

Shirley Bell, Alan Dawson, Erik Luyters, Neville Bradley 26-10. Ernesto Vergara, Andy Kidd, Rod Lane, Jeff Parker 21-12.

Division 3 away at Glen Waverley were desperate for a win to avoid sliding down the ladder.

The side was once again disappointing in a very close game against the bottom side and went down by just two shots 71-73 with two rinks up and two down - but with other results in their favour the side is still hanging on one spot above the relegation zone.

Peter Lister, Carl Lapham, Eric Sydenham, John Heathcote 10-22. Luka Klarica, Peter Castricum, Kerry Davis, Norm Hosmer 16-26. Arthur Fitt, Janice Moran, Ray Pigdon, Reg Johnstone 24-13. Michael Graham, Fred Fox, Arthur Scheurer, Greg Cowan 21-12.

Division 7 travelled to Waverley Golf hoping to maintain the form they showed before the break and are up and running to start the second part of the season with a resounding win by 52 shots 100-48, with all rinks winning.

The team is still on top of the ladder with five games to play.

Division 8, playing their first game in six weeks due to walkovers and the Christmas break, hosted Noble Park - and with a new look about the team came out winners with a rink up and one down by six shots, a good performance with some novice bowlers in the side and performing well.

Travis Moore, Helen McCarthy, Jack Norman, Peter Pater 26-18. Phil Howard, Leo McGeary, Stan Birkett, Peter Rouse 16-18.

Berwick Mazda �� Reviews and news…

Heading to the top end

... a bigger Mazda feeling!

New Year demo sale ALL STOCK MUST GO Mazda3 Mazda2

By EWAN KENNEDY HYUNDAI Genesis is an upmarket, high-tech sedan/saloon which is designed to tackle the big-name Germans and Brits at their own game at the top end of the market.

This is a large car, bigger than the Holden Commodore and Ford Falcon.

It’s also a little larger than the cars with which Hyundai would like to compete head on; Mercedes-Benz E-Class, BMW 5 Series, Audi A6 and Jaguar XF. The new Hyundai Genesis is priced from $60,000 making it a bargain in its class. Interestingly, the Genesis may benefit from the withdrawal of Ford and Holden from manufacturing in Australia.

Limousine companies, taxi operators, corporate owners, even government fleets, are all on the lookout for large cars to replace Caprice, Statesman, Commodore, LTD, Fairlane and Falcon.

Genesis is not as out-there in its shape as the smaller Hyundai models.

As it’s aimed at more conservative buyers with substantially more money than the owners of the rest of the Kia range, this is probably a sensible move.

The shape is graceful and very much in the European vein - which is interesting as one of the senior designers was a Korean-Australian fellow.

The Hyundai has a large single-frame grille of the type favoured by Audi and Mercedes, though BMW has taken a different direction, as has Jaguar.

The side profile is curved and almost in four-door coupe territory.

There’s a fashionable rise in the window line at the side-rear.

Tail treatment has a built-in spoiler lip and the wide stance gives Genesis a powerful look from the rear.

There’s no doubt this is a large car.

The interior of the Genesis is excellent, with a modern appearance using multiple materials, including an upmarket hand-stitched look, real timber, suede and aluminium.

Like just about every prestige car these days, Hyundai Genesis has an analog-look clock sitting in the centre of the dashboard.

However, it’s rather small and doesn’t exactly grab attention the way competitors do.

Only one engine is offered in the Australian Genesis though the gen-two model now has its steering wheel on the Australian side, only those buyers who drive on the ‘other’ side of the road have a V8 option.

Our Genesis has a thoroughly modern 3.8-litre petrol V6 developing 235 kilowatts of power and 400 Nm of torque.

Transmission is by an eightspeed automatic to the rear wheels. Yes, the rear wheels, as in Mercedes, BMW and Jaguar, though not Audi.

Hyundai’s new Genesis has upmarket, slightly conservative, styling in the manner of the prestigious large German and British cars.

The Hyundai Genesis is crammed with the latest in incar entertainment, including a 17-speaker Lexicon audio system.

Bluetooth, USB and Aux inputs are simple to use. The screen is a good size and easy to read.

There are numerous crash avoidance or minimisation features including all-round electronic vision, automatic emergency braking, lane keeping, radar cruise control and a large, coloured head-up display.

Not all items are sold in all models.

Hyundai Genesis has gained the highest score ever in Australian NCAP testing, an impressive feat given the huge amount of work being done in this field by the major European car makers.

The optional $11,000 Sensory Pack adds a range of driver assistance features including Blind Spot Detection, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Lane Change Assist, Head-Up Display as well as premium leather interior and LED front foglights.

Hyundai’s big 3.8-litre V6 engine is rapidly becoming one of our favourite powerplants.

It’s not only strong throughout the rev range but also produces the near instant response to the throttle you just don’t get in even the best of turbocharged units.

In normal driving the Genesis six is as smooth and luxurious as you want from a large car, but when pushed along hard it provides the sorts of sounds keen drivers love.

While not exactly a gas guzzler it uses 11 to 13 litres per 100 kilometres in suburban day-to-day running and quickly climbs into the mid teens if you really have a go. Freeway and open road driving can bring it way down, into the high sevens, a factor of the tall gearing in the eight-speed automatic transmission.

Many buyers in this class put comfort ahead of dynamic handling and steering. However, the importer understands that Australian drivers like more feel and feedback than their Asian and American cousins so have modified the suspension,

Mazda 3 Neo Safety Automatic Sedan

giving it a slightly firmer.

Road grip is plentiful and the car is nicely balanced; even better, the Genesis can be cornered on the throttle in true rear-drive fashion if you’re feeling that way inclined.

At over two tonnes with just one person on board it can hardly be described as nimble.

Seat comfort in the front is very good, with side support that works nicely without the seat bolsters being too aggressive. Fair enough, the Genesis isn’t intended to be a sports sedan.

Despite the apparently sleek roofline there’s good headroom in the rear of this big saloon.

Legroom in the back is good without being outstanding if tall adults are travelling in the front, but powering the front seats forward brings the Genesis into the semi-limo class.

Three can be carried in the back but, as in rear-drive cars footroom in the centre-rear seat is compromised by the transmission tunnel.

The rear-centre armrest folds down to provide not only extra comfort, but also to give access to controls for the infotainment and ventilation systems.

As is common in large Asian cars the front passenger seat can be controlled by way of controls in the rear seats.

This lets the most important person in a limo, the man (sadly, it almost invariably is a man) sitting diagonally behind the driver, the ability to maximise their knee and foot room.

Noise and vibration are impressively reduced.

Hyundai Genesis makes an excellent long distance tourer, even on rough and ready Australian bush roads.

The Hyundai range is available for test drive at Cranbourne Hyundai, 200 High Street, Cranbourne, phone 5995 1188.
