R FA M ILY HO ME

Courthouse fracas A MAN has lashed out at police in court after being jailed for repeatedly driving without a court-ordered alcohol interlock device in Narre Warren and Doveton.

Vincent Jean-Paul Manuel repeatedly yelled expletives and struggled with three police officers as he was escorted to cells after the Dandenong Magistrates’ Court hearing on Monday.

During the violent scuffle, walls were thumped outside the courtroom exit as he was forced to the ground by officers.

“Get f ****** off me, c**** ,” Manuel screamed during the struggle.

Manuel had pleaded guilty to a range of charges, including drug-driving with ice and cannabis, and driving without an interlock six times in September, March, April and May. Each interlock offence was punishable with up to four months’ jail.

He had been serving a community corrections order at the time for driving without an interlock in 2013. During one of the detected breaches, Manuel claimed he had removed the interlock because of a battery issue, police prosecutor Senior Constable Fiona Davis told the court.

He had also resisted arrest in a Rowville backyard in February over false number plates affixed to his black Clubsport Commodore - one of several charges involving false plates.

Manuel told police at the time to “get f*****“, that he’d done nothing wrong as he refused to put his hands behind his back, the court was told.

He was subdued with OC spray after he lunged aggressively at a police officer.

Manuel was also charged with pos-

sessing ice as he sat in a car with no plates in Cranbourne, several counts of driving an unregistered vehicle and failing to answer bail.

Defence lawyer Rachel Hopkins told the court Manuel suffered posttraumatic stress and memory loss from being stabbed in the head in 2007, as well as injuries from a car crash.

She said Manuel had completed seven of the required 40 hours of un-

paid work as part of his existing community-based order.

The order didn’t address his underlying drug and mental health issues, Ms Hopkins said.

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said he wouldn’t place Manuel on another community corrections order because “he’s not going to comply”.

“You’ve got such repetitive (offending) behaviour, there’s no alternative

for a court but to impose a term of imprisonment.”

Manuel was jailed for two months, disqualified from driving for 12 months and fined $1500. Hours after his sentence, Manuel appealed but was refused appeal bail by Mr Vandersteen.

The magistrate said appeal bail was normally granted but took into account Manuel’s disobedient history as well as his “appalling” behaviour to police that morning.

“You’re simply an unacceptable risk of re-offending.”

Defence lawyer Rachel Hopkins said her client claimed he was “handled badly” by the officers and “responded to the treatment he received”.

Manuel was remanded in custody to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 31 August.

His County Court appeal was scheduled for October.

Casey backs plan for suicide action

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

CASEY Mayor Mick Morland has thrown his support behind the State Coroner’s findings into the “cluster” of youth suicides in Casey and Cardinia in 2011 and 2012.

Coroner Audrey Jamieson’s findings into the spate of youth suicides in Melbourne’s south-east were formally released last month at an official Department of Human Services briefing.

The findings come after the Coroners Prevention Unit (CPU) completed a retrospective case series examination of suspected suicides and hospitalisation for self-harm among residents of the City of Casey and Cardinia Shire, aged 24 and under, for the period 2007 to 2013.

For suspected suicide, the CPU found that compared to previous years the frequency and rate per

100,000 population was elevated in 2011, meeting the Centres for Disease Control and Prevention’s definition of a “suicide cluster”.

Cr Morland said he and council supported Coroner Jamieson’s recommendations, which centred on developing a suicide prevention and post-vention response framework, which “has the ability to take into account various socio-demographic and geographic profiles of individual local government areas”.

“Council will continue to work collaboratively with our community, state and federal agencies as well as health providers in providing a range of support services,” Cr Morland said.

“Through these and other initiatives, the City of Casey has demonstrated a commitment to leading the community discussion on youth mental health.

“The City of Casey acknowledges the collaboration with the partners and thanks them for their leadership and commitment to the young people and the broader community.”

Specifically in the findings, six suspected suicides were identified among “usual residents” of the City of Casey in 2011, compared to one in 2010 and three in 2009.

Similarly four suspected suicides were identified among usual residents of Cardinia Shire in 2011 compared to one in 2010, two in 2009, and zero in both 2008 and 2007.

And in the two years after 2011, while the frequency of suspected suicides was found to have reduced slightly, it remained higher than 2009 and 2010 in both the City of Casey and the Cardinia Shire - with four suspected suicides in 2012 and 2013 for Casey, and three in both

2012 and 2013 for Cardinia.

The Casey and Cardinia findings were the culmination of years of research, in many ways instigated on 23 November, 2011, when a member of the public contacted the CPU to express concern over the perceived increase of youth suicides in Casey and Cardinia Shire; followed in January 2012 by the formation of the Casey Youth Suicide Steering Committee (YSSC).

The YSSC has developed an online resource kit that can be found at www.sayft.net.

The increase of youth suicides in Casey and Cardinia saw a community summit held in 2012 at the City of Casey chambers, and covered by the ABC’s Four Corners.

Cars stolen after break-ins THE theft of two cars from houses in the same Endeavour Hills street in a matter of days could be linked, police say.

The first incident saw an offender break into a Heatherton Road home through a rear door about 10.30pm on Tuesday 11 August, take car keys from a bench inside and use them to steal a Mitsubishi Coupe from the property.

The second incident occurred only a few days later on Friday 14 August, in which an offender broke into another Heatherton Road home, took keys from inside and used them to steal a Toyota station wagon from the driveway.

Detective Senior Sergeant John Bergin said there was certainly a chance the two thefts were linked.

He has previously urged residents to ensure their house and car doors were locked.

Looking down the barrel A MAN has reported to police that he had a shotgun pulled on him in a terrifying road rage confrontation in Dandenong South this week.

Police said the 33-year-old victim, from Bonbeach, was driving a motorbike along Greens Road between 8am and 8.30am on Monday 17 August when a man driving a black Holden Clubsport cut the motorcyclist off as he approached Hammond Road.

When the victim honked his horn at the car driver the offender swerved several times at the motorcyclist and hit his bike, causing damage to the motorbike’s indicator and the handlebars.

The Holden driver also allegedly tried to use his car to push the motorcyclist into traffic.

When both drivers soon stopped at a red light at the intersection of Greens Road and Dandenong-Frankston Road, the offender went to grab at the motorcyclist and then pointed what appeared to be the barrel of a shotgun at the victim out of the car window.

The motorcyclist rode off and the car driver was last seen heading south on Greens Road and on to the South Gippsland Highway, towards Cranbourne.

CASEY Council has called on local community groups in Doveton to throw their hats in the ring to host an Australia Day event next year.

Council wants to hear from groups that would be interested in hosting a community event catering for at least 500 people on 26 January next year, in either Doveton or its neighbouring suburbs including Endeavour Hills.

“Each year there are many great Australia Day events, hosted by local groups and supported by the council, held across the municipality where local residents can join in the festivities, ignite their national pride and celebrate what makes our country such a wonderful place to live,” Casey mayor Mick Morland said.

“There is an opportunity in 2016 for a group to deliver an event for the Doveton and surrounding communities. The event must be of cultural significance, free, open to all residents of Casey and able to cater for attendance numbers of a minimum of 500 people.

WHAT’S IN A NAME DELVES INTO THE FASCINATING STORIES AND PERSONALITIES BEHIND SOME OF THE CITY’S BEST-KNOWN STREET NAMES. THIS WEEK THE JOURNAL LOOKS AT MACPHERSON STREET, NAMED IN HONOUR OF AN EARLY EDUCATOR.

Scottish educator was a street wise influence on town MALCOLM Macpherson was the first headmaster of the first state school in Dandenong - now Dandenong Primary School.

He emigrated from Scotland to New South Wales in 1855 at age 21. He and his London-born wife Mary lived in several towns in country NSW and Victoria before arriving in Dandenong.

Malcolm was always a teacher and was also active as a farmer and a businessman.

The Macphersons were a family of teachers. Among Malcolm’s small staff at the state school was his daughter Jane, who was listed as a pupil teacher.

His son Jeffrey was born at Bathurst, NSW, and was four years old when his father took up the headmaster position in 1874.

Malcolm had a wide range of inter-

ests and was involved in civic life. Records show he was public-spirited and a well-known figure in the community.

For a time he was a shire councillor and he was involved with the Mechanics’ Institute and the Masonic Lodge, as would be his son.

Malcolm invested shrewdly in land, and at age 55 he was appointed a sworn valuator.

In an advertisement in the Journal eight years later, he was still offering his professional services in the field.

Young Jeffrey was to follow in his father’s footsteps as a teacher.

He taught at Melbourne Grammar School where he was a master in the senior school from 1891 to 1902 and the librarian from 1895 to 1898.

He was also involved in some teaching at Dandenong Grammar School, a

private secondary school his father established on leaving the Victorian Department of Education. Malcolm foresaw a growing demand for secondary education in Dandenong.

Jeffrey was proud of Dandenong.

Like his father, he pressed for improvements to the town. In a letter to the Journal on 26 February 1908, on the subject of ‘that windswept Sahara which we call Lonsdale Street’ he suggested that gardens be built down the centre of the street.

Jeffrey placed the ad in the Journal on 4 October 1905, announcing that he had acquired William Brocket’s legal practice and started practice as a barrister and solicitor.

He gave 237 Collins Street as his Melbourne office, the Royal Hotel in Dandenong as his local place of busi-

ness and Macpherson Street, Dandenong, as his home.

Charles Hyde Parker Kelley, also of Dandenong, became Mr Macpherson’s junior partner about 1914.

Macpherson and Kelley in 1972 built the first high-rise in Dandenong at 229 Lonsdale Street, moved to Scott Street in 1999.

Jeffrey died of pneumonia in 1938, aged 68. He was described as “one of Dandenong’s best-known and bestloved citizens”, “the quiet, kind philosopher and scholar whose tolerance, keen sense of humour and unassuming humility made him stand out from his fellows and earn their regard”.

Cop dragged with car

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS AN ICE addict dragged along a police officer for several metres as he drove off from a police intercept in Beaconsfield.

On Monday, Michael James Nagy, of Langwarrin, pleaded guilty to reckless conduct, failing to comply with a police officer’s lawful directions and possession of ice over the incident in front of Haileybury College late on 16 January.

After being pulled over, police observed a plastic bag of ice on the centre console, police prosecutor Senior Constable Fiona Davis told Dandenong

Magistrates’ Court.

She said Nagy allegedly wound down his window and blankly stared ahead as he was spoken to by a police officer.

Suddenly the accused drove off, over a nature strip and several plastic roadside palings.

In the action, the officer’s shoulder was struck by the car’s driver-side pillar; his hand caught up inside the car as he was dragged along.

The officer was later treated for shoulder, wrist and finger injuries at Casey Hospital, the court was told.

The vehicle was found by police the next day in a fast-food outlet car park.

Inside the car were two plastic bags of ice and two shotgun cartridges.

Nagy also pleaded guilty to drugdriving while ice was in his system in Hallam in December, and for possessing a machete in his car in Narre Warren in April.

Nagy told the court he stopped drinking and started an ice habit after his divorce three years ago.

He had since gone “cold turkey” from drugs.

“This is one of the biggest down-

points of my life.

“That (drive-off) incident woke me up to an extent.

“I realised I’ve done stupid things.

My life has turned 180 degrees around.”

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Nagy was “very lucky” he had not killed the police officer.

He sentenced Nagy to a 12-month community corrections order, including supervision, drug testing, mental health treatment and 150 hours of unpaid work.

Nagy was disqualified from driving for six months.

All together for service at new headquarters THE new Ermha headquarters is more than an office space - it’s a community.

And the Dandenong South space is increasing staff productivity and the notfor-profit’s ability to serve people in need throughout the south-east.

Ermha supports people facing challenges resulting from a disability, mental illness, homelessness, or experiences of trauma or substance use to live the life they choose.

Its 200-plus team members had been running between four buildings on Robinson Street in Dandenong to find space for a meeting, chat to a colleague or pick up a document.

At the end of June they came together in a new head office in the Estate One precinct on the Princes Highway.

“It’s actually been quite exciting for all the staff,” Ermha marketing and communications executive director Christine Thorn-

IN BRIEF Man stabbed in bank brawl A FIGHT between three men outside a Westpac bank in Springvale has ended with one of the men being rushed to hospital with puncture wounds from an alleged stabbing.

It’s not known what started the fight nor whether the men were known to each other when the fight broke out outside the bank on Springvale Road, about 2pm on Monday 17 August.

A 40-year-old Springvale man was taken to The Alfred hospital with non-life threatening puncture wounds to his lower back.

A Footscray West man and a second man, both in their twenties, were interviewed by police and released.

Armed robbery

ton said.

“It’s created a new environment that’s more of a community, more of a family feel.

She said the new space was bright and open, but had breakout rooms for when staff needed quite time or a client meeting.

“The clients absolutely love it. They’re starting to feel very welcome."

She said Ermha had been expanding at a rapid rate and outgrew its spaces.

“It was never our plan to have four leases in four different buildings. It was just meeting demand,” she said.

So Ermha signed a seven-year, $411,445 per annum lease for a 1349 square metre space at 81-125 Princes Highway.

“We are still maintaining our drop-in space at 65 Robinson Street,” Ms Thornton said.

Hot car risk The Napthine Government last year raised the penalty for leaving a child in a locked car to $3690 and a maximum of six months’ jail.

Kidsafe Victoria set up the ‘Do Not Leave Children In Cars’ campaign to raise awareness of the dangers of leaving children unattended in cars and reduce the number of incidents across the state.

As part of the campaign, Kidsafe Victoria produced a number of resources including the ‘Do Not Leave Children Unattended in Cars’ signs, which are ideally suited for car parks at shopping strips, parks, gardens, shopping centres, entertainment venues, petrol stations, business premises, schools, kindergartens and early childhood centres.

Cr Stapledon applauded Mooney Valley’s initiative when raising her motion, commending Mayor Narelle Sharpe and her council on supporting the campaign and unveiling plans to install hundreds of signs in their region.

It’s been reported that Mooney Valley will spend around $50,000 to install the Kidsafe signs at 246 councilrun off-street parking facilities.

Cr Stapledon said money spent by Casey on the campaign would be worth the investment.

A report on the motion is expected to come back to Casey Council next month.

1195853-KK35-15

CASEY Council will follow in the footsteps of Moonee Valley City Council and push for the installation of signs warning community members not to leave their kids in cars.

Cr Amanda Stapledon on Tuesday raised a motion calling for the City of Casey to join Mooney Valley in advocating for the Kidsafe Victoria ‘Do Not Leave Children In Cars’ campaign, which will see officers investigate the viability of setting up signage outside kindergartens and maternal health wards across the municipality.

Between 1 September 2013 and 31 August 2014, Ambulance Victoria paramedics rescued 1165 children who had been left unattended in a car.

DANDENONG JOURNAL

The member next door

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS WHAT are the chances: a former Dandenong-based MP living next door to a Dandenong-based journalist?

Dr Ron Wells represented Eumemmerring Province in the State Upper House in 1992-'99 - the first Liberal elected to the seat.

My tenure on the Dandenong Journal started more than a decade later.

Nearing his 80th birthday, Dr Wells remains vital and politically alert as we visit his old stomping ground at Dandenong Market.

The former veterinary medical researcher and university teacher tells me he doesn’t think of old age.

“I’m looking forward to a vigorous career ahead.”

At Dandenong Market, he marvels at its reconstruction, its comfort and array of foods and cultures.

“Dandenong is a wonderful place,” he says. “It’s looking bigger and better now.”

He listens eagerly to a merchandise trader’s gripes about the lack of shoppers.

“Get onto your MP,” Dr Wells advised.

Listening was a big part of the job, he tells me.

He started up an Unemployment Hour radio program on Casey community station 3SER - talkback that generated headlines in the nation’s media.

He also got to know the waves of new arrivals who had settled in Dandenong since the end of World War II. When he arrived in the seat, Dr Wells was quoted by the Journal refer-

As we sit in the market food court, Dr Wells tells me he knew Dandenong was much more important than its size indicated.

When I was elected to Eumemmerring, I said: as Eumemmerring goes, so Australia will go.

“We had the greatest challenges facing us. I was very conscious of that.”

Picture: ROB CAREW

One of the over-riding concerns of the area was “money to do more things”.

“In a growing society there are huge welfare needs that are difficult to meet.

“It’s always about economic management. You’ve got to have people who understand the economy in charge.”

Dr Wells had a fiery introduction as an Eumemmerring MP, especially for one who appreciated “the priceless experience of being well-educated”.

A month after his election, Dr Wells and Berwick MP Robert Dean - with 10 police on hand - fronted a hostile public meeting in Doveton.

In its front-page story “School Fury”, the Journal reported about 1000 parents, students and teachers taunted and hurled papers at the pair over the government’s impending closure of Joseph Banks Secondary College.

Photographer Andrew Henshaw captured the moment when an angry parent was restrained as he fronted a “startled” Dr Wells.

The closure doesn’t seem to sit well with him when I remind him.

“Education was and is central to a modern, democratic way of life and

I could not be in favour of closing schools.

“But I believe democracy is the way to go. It’s a team effort and you can’t get your way every time.”

Within two months of that public meeting, Dr Wells announced no doubt more welcome news - an extra 1000 places at Dandenong College of TAFE. Dr Wells says he’d always wanted to see schools more like community hubs - an idea that is increasingly catching on.

“At day, a school; at night, a community centre” was how he put it.

As we leave the market, we’re confronted by a waist-high metal barrier.I’m shocked to see a sprightly Dr Wells, without a creaking joint, duck under the bar and move on.

In March 1993 - the first of several columns for the Journal - Dr Wells reflected on the need for an “efficient media to report and discuss the events of daily democracy”.

“Journalists have such immense political power that if they fail to present fair, efficient and accurate reporting of events, they fail in their unique responsibility and democratic government suffers.”

He tells me that he had a mutually helpful relationship with local newspapers.

“It’s hard work for the local officials because they have got so many demands.

“That’s why newspapers are important. They get our attention to what needs to be done. And they express the will of the people to get it done.”

Families behind thin blue line

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE boys and girls in blue couldn’t do what they do without their families.

Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius made a special point to thank these family members when he attended the Southern Metro Division 3 Awards Ceremony on Thursday, where officers from throughout Casey, Cardinia and Dandenong were formally recognised with service medals and certificates.

“I’m a dad. I’ve got a seven-year-old daughter and a 13-year-old daughter and I’ve got a loving wife and I can’t do, and my colleagues can’t do what they do, without the love and support of their families,” Asst Comm Cornelius told the guests gathered at the City of Casey council chambers.

“And our commitment and our sacrifice in service to the community is as much your commitment and your sacrifice. We miss birthdays, we miss special school performances, we miss the odd anniversary - we hope not to but we do.

“There are those key points in our lives where our work life, our vocations, and our commitment to serving the community comes first and that comes at some cost to our families.

“The acknowledgement of your loved ones in the blue is also in part an acknowledgement of your service, your commitment and your sacrifice.”

About 70 female and male officers from the three municipalities were recognised at the ceremony, with a range of service and bravery awards handed out.

A large group of Justices of the Peace were also awarded commendations for

Sergeant Sherree Moore with Assistant Commissioner Luke Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Cornelius. 143173 Justice of the Peace Heather Glossop was congratulated by Dandenong Inspector Bruce Kitchen. their selfless contribution to helping run police stations throughout the Division 3 region.

“Having a Mum or a Dad who’s a police officer is a very special thing and I just want each of you to know, you should be very proud of your mum or dad,” Asst Comm Cornelius said.

“They do a really important job, they keep other kids and other mums safe, they look after the community and they make the community a better place because of what they do.

“So when you go to school tomorrow, make sure you share with your mates just how proud you are of your mum and dad.”

The importance of family and keeping loved ones safe was certainly a theme for the afternoon.

When introducing the awards, Superintendent Russell Barrett made a par-

ticular mention of the work the Division 3 officers had been doing in relation to curbing family violence, working in a region where that type of crime was notoriously high.

“We’re also state’s leaders in term of reducing the trends around repeat victims of family violence and people who repeatedly perpetrate family violence crime onto their partners or children or family members,” Supt Barrett said.

“It’s something that we are focused on here and I just want to acknowledge the effort of everyone in this division for their continued commitment to reducing the harm caused by family violence.

“We have a lot of work to do, we cannot lose sight of that, but for a moment in time I think we should all take a moment to just reflect on the journey so far and how much effort’s gone in to making inroads with family violence.”

Superintendent Russell Barrett hands Glen Ziino his award.

They're growing successes

By CASEY NEILL TEN-ROSE International Simmental in Longwarry is a seventh-generation farming business shipping cattle world-wide.

It’s among three finalists for the Agriculture and Food Business of the Year title at the Casey Cardinia Business Awards.

They’ll be up against JD Propagation and Mountain Harvest Foods at a gala dinner a Cranbourne Racing Centre on 22 October.

Ten-Rose was established from international genetics with an emphasis now on current and heritage Australian bloodlines.

Chris and Sharon Jordan ship cattle worldwide and have a large range of artificial insemination straws and embryos.

Their mission is to lift farming profitability and productivity through genetic selection and they run their breeding program accordingly.

Ten-Rose breeds tenderness and feed efficiency into its cattle and can set up beef operations in Australia, China, Japan, New Zealand and Brazil.

It this year won the Baw Baw Shire Business Excellence Awards for Agribusiness Beef and Dairy, and in 2014 was a finalist for the Casey Cardinia Agribusiness and Primary Industries award and the Baw Baw Shire agribusiness award.

JD Propagation is a family-owned and operated wholesale propagation nursery that’s been operating on a 10-acre property in Pearcedale since 2009.

It has more than 3000 square metres of individually temperature-controlled greenhouses to ensure high quality plants are available yearround.

JD specialises in propagating and contract growing herbs, flowering annuals, flowering perennials, strappy leaf plants, shrubs, vegetables and indoor plants.

The company propagates from cuttings, seed, tissue culture and division, sourcing seeds and vegetative genetics from the world’s leading breeders.

Mountain Harvest Foods’ Anthony Failla didn’t see a long-term future for the family potato farm - established in 1946 - when he came on

Professor Leon Piterman from awards sponsor Monash University, Thomas Jordan and Sharon Jordan from Ten-Rose International Simmental, Cardinia Shire mayor Leticia Wilmot and City of Casey mayor Mick Morland, Jen and Dan Patience from JD Propagation, and Picture: ROB CAREW Christina de Sousa and Anthony Failla from Mountain Harvest Foods. 142858 board in 2003. So he built a potato cake factory on the Mountain Road property, bought and relocated two established suppliers and got his sister Christina de Sousa on board.

“We needed to be able to utilise 100 per cent of all the potatoes that were harvested,” he said.

“At that time, our only customer was Woolworths and Woolworths were only taking 70 per cent of all the potatoes we were harvesting.

“They want it perfectly round, they want the

right colour, the right soil colour.

They only wanted potatoes between 120 grams and 350 grams.

“This processing factory was an avenue for us to be able to utilise those out of specification potatoes, to the point now where we’re trying to grow more of the out of spec potatoes.”

Farm turnover has grown from $230,000 a year in 2003 to $10 million today.

It created sweet potato chip and zucchini fries for national burger chain Grill’d and a skin-on chip to Lord of the Fries. We do have to buy potatoes at certain times of the year from other farmers, but that’s going to increase,” Ms de Sousa said.

“We’re going to need support from other farmers to work together with us.

“If we can all work together as a community, we’ll all be rewarded for it.”

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A “FRUSTRATED” head of a voluntary asylum-seeker help group has called for Greater Dandenong Council to inject more “practical funding” into the cause.

In recent years, Greater Dandenong Council has established an advisory group and an action plan focused on asylum seekers and refugees.

The council has also led a joint push by 20 Victorian councils for more federal funding for asylum seeker services and co-ordination.

But Friends of Refugees chief executive Sri Samy said after two years of talks with the council, it had yet to create a centralised body to co-ordinate the plethora of volunteers and groups helping hundreds of asylum seekers in the community.

“They say they don’t have the money with rates-capping and things.

“They just do the symbolic things. They design an action plan and beautiful flags but what have they done for asylum seekers who are actually living there.

“We have so many meetings but they’re wasting my time.”

Ms Samy said despite the council’s advocacy to the Federal Government, she held little hope of more federal support to help house, feed, teach and clothe the families.

“The Federal Government just handballs it.

“They just want these people to go back (to their homelands) in frustration.”

Over the past few years, the need has been enormous in Melbourne’s south-east. As of December, there were more than 1600 asylum seekers on bridging visas and another 2000 in surrounding suburbs.

Without any form of govern-

Sri Samy is calling for more funding to help asylum seekers in Greater Dandenong. 139395 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS ment funding, Friends of Refugees collects bikes for children at Christmas, set up a men’s woodwork shop, women’s support groups, English and work skills classes, children’s homework tuition and pitched in with food, beds, fridges and other necessities.

Ms Samy said she was frustrated the ‘professionals’ such as government-funded agencies and the three tiers of government can’t do or spend more.

It’s a system that “doesn’t care enough”.

Employed people from funded agencies help only 9-5 and within their budgets, she said.

They often refer clients to Friends of Refugees for a chop-out.

Greater Dandenong community services director Mark Doubleday said the council worked with many local agencies and groups to encourage co-operation and co-ordination of asylum-seeker services.

Eligible not-for-profit groups were also able to seek council funding through its community support grants program, he said.

Mr Doubleday said the action plan had led to raising the profile of asylum-seeker needs, positive messages of welcome, forums and celebrations, language classes and conversation circles, volunteering programs for asylum seekers, work skills programs and sporting activities.

“Over the next 12 months, implementation of the (action plan) continues with priorities to improve education, employment and social opportunities for asylum seekers and refugees in Greater Dandenong.”

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Training cash for Dayco

By CASEY NEILL A HALLAM business is among the first in Australia to receive new training cash.

Dayco Australia will use its $2000 Industry Skills Fund (ISF) grant to train two staff in its supply and logistics team.

“We identified this training need for better materials management to help our manufacturing operation, which manufactures harmonic balancers for the automotive aftermarket,” managing director Arnold Mouw said.

“A large part of our increased capacity is exported to Dayco US. “We are also a supplier to Ford original equipment at both Geelong and Broadmeadows plants, although most of our business today is aftermarket to customers such as Burson, Wesfil and Repco.”

Dayco has a global network of manufacturing facilities, distribution centres, technical facilities and sales offices.

The Australian branch has been a major player in the country’s automotive original equipment and aftermarket sectors for more than 30 years, specialising in automotive power transmission and cooling system components.

Victorian Senator Mitch Fifield said the $664 million Fed-

“The ISF is targeted at small and medium-sized businesses that need to upskill or retrain their workers so their business can diversify or take advantage

of new market opportunities,” he said.

“Free skills advice is also available for small and medium businesses.

“Experienced advisers will work with eligible businesses to understand growth opportunity and identify skills needed to increase competitiveness.”

Mr Fifield encouraged other businesses to apply for a grant.

“Employers will be supported to decide what training is needed in their business, and which training provider they want to work with,” he said.

“With better trained employees, Australian business will be positioned to diversify into new

Picture: ROB CAREW markets, adopt new technologies, enter export markets and create more jobs.”

Under the ISF, businesses are required to contribute to the cost of training, and the government will cover the rest of the cost.

Niria's carving out a new career in business

By CASEY NEILL NIRIA Blockley didn’t think she was smart enough to tackle a business course.

But she has not only completed a Diploma of Business Administration - she finished the eight-month course in four.

The Eumemmerring 27-year-old was the first graduate from Evocca College’s Dandenong campus.

“I’ve wanted to do business studies for quite a while but I had a lot of people saying I wasn’t smart enough,” she said.

“I wanted to see what it was like and see if I could actually do it.

“I was quite shocked at what I could do.”

Ms Blockley is now studying a Diploma of Management.

“I thought I’d give management a try and see how that goes,” she said.

“Believe in yourself and you can achieve anything.”

She’s studying with the aim of opening her own butcher shop.

“I’m a trade qualified butcher. I love my meat,” she said.

“I thought having my own butcher shop would be an ideal future.”

When Ms Blockley’s not studying, she’s searching for work.

“I’m trying to get into administration work,” she said.

“I need to get some experience in another business.”

She said her confidence grew during her studies and she learnt something new every day.

Evocca College Dandenong opened in April this year and offers diploma-level courses in counselling, community services, business and events.

BUSINESSES can tap into the south-east’s future workforce at a smorgasbord of inspiration.

SEBN and South East Local Learning and Employment Network (SELLEN) will next month host Lunch with the Winners.

Speakers will include last year’s Chisholm Apprentice of the Year Alex Woller, The Social Studio CEO Susan Yengi, PACCAR Award recipient Elliott Altmann, and braaap motorcycle company founder Brad Smith.

Their journeys through school and work will highlight possible career pathways for the Year 9 and 10 students from across the south-east who are in attendance.

Schools attend free of charge so organisers are looking for table sponsors to offset the cost.

ACACIA DELIVERS THE BEST OF BEAUTIFUL BOTANIC RIDGE

Real Estate

RIVER FRONTAGE NOOJEE RETREAT

Homebuyers have been quick to buy into Peet’s new Acacia community in the sought-after suburb of Botanic Ridge.

Acacia will feature beautifully landscaped parks, designed wetlands and wide tree-lined streets that blend the 600-household community with the very best elements of the neighbouring Royal Botanic Gardens.

Peet Managing Director and CEO Brendan Gore said this presents a unique opportunity for a range of homebuyers, including first-time buyers and those looking to upgrade their home - and lifestyle.

“The masterplan for the new Acacia community takes full advantage of its natural setting, and we expect that to be a drawcard for buyers looking to live close to nature while still being close to important amenities and key transport links,” Mr Gore said.

In time, Acacia residents will benefit from a range of planned amenities, including a future Town Centre with its own supermarket, café and specialty stores, primary school and community centre.

10 BENNETT STREET NOOJEE

A very special property with the rear of this 673m2 block having absolute frontage to the Latrobe River, yet extraordinarily just 50 meters from the General store and the ‘Red Parrot’ café, restaurant.

For an evening of ine dining, the home is within walking distance of the “Outpost” and “Toolshed” restaurants and the Noojee family friendly Hotel.

The 1930’s solid 2 bedroom home with large family room extensions built in 2000 makes for a unique Mountain town retreat opportunity.

Ride to beat the black dog

Festival lights up

By CASEY NEILL

DANDENONG will next month host an Australianfirst light and lantern celebration.

The Chinese Cultural Works Light Spectacular is coming to the country for the first time following successful tours throughout Europe and China.

The Dandenong Festival of Lights at the Dandenong Showgrounds in Greaves Reserve will celebrate Chinese culture through 32 silk lanterns, some 20 metres wide.

Shapes and forms include windmills, Chinese zodiacs, dinosaurs, flowers, insects and animals.

A marked route will guide visitors through the festival, which will also feature music, performances, ceremonies, food trucks and jumping castles.

Logistic Events Australia director Rod Stoller hoped the festival would not only share Chinese culture, but enlighten and educate people of all ages.

The festival will be open to the public from 6pm to 10pm from 11 September until 18 October.

Tickets are $20 for adults and $12 for kids. Visit www.lightfestival.com.au for more information.

DEPRESSION has brought two brothers together for the first time in nine years for a motorcycle journey to the heart of Australia.

Dandenong man Mark PembertonWebb and David Pemberton, from England, left Melbourne on the Black Dog Ride to the Red Centre on Saturday 15 August.

About 500 motorbike riders from around the country will make the weeklong journey to raise funds for Mental Health First Aid’s teen program and Lifeline’s online Crisis Support Chat service.

They’ll stop in towns along the way to start conversations about depression and suicide prevention.

David is the only international participant and flew to Australia to reunite with Mark on 7 August.

Together, they’ll make the almost 6500 kilometre round trip on their motorbikes.

Their father in England was diagnosed with terminal cancer in 2006. Mark relied on telephone conversations to keep in touch but flew to England to see him as the condition took hold.

“I had my 46th birthday there, and on that night had a heart attack,” he said.

“Things changed for me after that.

“I saw the photos, read the stories and felt an immediate connection.

“I knew right then and there I had to get involved.”

Mark said the suicide rate in Australia was sickening, at an average of seven deaths every day. He said 79 per cent were male.

Gwen Jarvis Born 22 September 1922 Died 14 August 2015 DANDENONG treasure and former mayoress Gwen Jarvis has died just weeks shy of her 93rd birthday.

Alongside her late husband and three-time Dandenong mayor Maurie Jarvis, Gwen not only built a life in Dandenong for her own family, but a community for generations to come.

She made her mark through the Truby King Infant Welfare Centre, Dandenong West Kindergarten and Primary School, Girl Guides, Dandenong Trinity Uniting Church and Wallara.

“Wallara was started in our living room in 1959,” Gwen proudly told the Journal.

For 40 years she volunteered with Dandenong’s Festival of Music and Art for Youth, and the YWCA recognised her work to establish the organisation in Dandenong by naming a facility in her honour in Hammond Road.

Gwen was named a City of Greater Dandenong Living Treasure, an honour reserved for people who made a lasting impact on the quality and nature of life for all in the municipality.

She was the second daughter of Charles and Doris McPhee and was born at home in Close Avenue, Dandenong, in 1922.

She attended Dandenong West Primary School followed

by Dandenong High School, where she was a prefect in her final year.

Church was an important part of her family’s life and it was there Gwen met Maurie.

They were married in the Methodist Church in 1944

Gwen Jarvis was a Dandenong Living Treasure. when Maurie was home on wartime leave from the Torres Strait Islands.

They first lived in Stud Road, Dandenong, before building a home in Jones Road, Dandenong West.

Journal reporter and Gwen’s Dandy High classmate Marg Stork in 2012 wrote: “Over the years, I had the pleasure of visiting them at their home, to see the banks of beautiful rhododendrons which struck a colourful springtime note and which we featured in the Dandenong Journal on a number of occasions.”

Gwen moved into Valley Village Mews on Stud Road, Dandenong, when Maurie passed away in 2003 and later moved to Millhaven Lodge in Pakenham where she died peacefully on Friday 14 August.

During her 85 years in Dandenong, Gwen watched a small country town transform into a bustling multicultural city.

Gwen’s grandson and Journal reporter Russell Bennett recently spoke to her for the paper’s 150th anniversary, and said her memories of what made Dandenong so great in her eyes were still as vivid as ever.

“All the friends we had were great - they were my life. The people there were all good to me, and I was good to them,” she said.

At a council-hosted 90th birthday party in 2012, Gwen told Marg: “I love Dandenong.

It is the city where my heart is.”

Gwen is survived by daughters Elizabeth, Bronwyn, Sue and Marion, eight grandchildren and 14 great-grandchildren.

Navy looking for a few good cadets

By CASEY NEILL

Buy & Sell in our

Motoring section of Network Classiieds.

SUB-LIEUTENANT Matthew Hine has gone from navy cadet to commanding officer.

The Hampton Park 26-yearold is encouraging kids from Casey and Greater Dandenong to follow in his footsteps.

Sub-Lt Hine is the Commanding Officer (CO) for the Training Ship (TS) Bataan Australian Navy Cadets (ANC) unit, based at the Monash Barracks in Dandenong.

“We moved here last year in October,” he said.

“We wanted to focus on the kids that were here first, so it was a solid group before we moved on.

“We’re at a stage where we’re ready to recruit again.

“Army cadets recruit heavily in Greater Dandenong, so we’re

hoping to focus on Casey.”

Sub-Lt Hine said cadets learnt rope work, defence force ranks, leadership and unit structure.

“When we go on camp, we’ve done dragon boating, we’ve done sailing,” he said.

“Power boats is something we focus on, and we’re very lucky that we get pretty good access to HMAS Cerberus for camps.”

He started his 12 years with the ANC as a Hampton Park Secondary College student.

“I was the training officer for a while and then my CO retired last year and I took over,” he said.

“I’ve hit it young.

“We opened it up to tender, and other staff in the ANC applied for it.

“They’re older than me and

much more experienced in other ways, but I’ve owned businesses and my management and leadership was what this unit needed to get it into a community stage.”

TS Bataan had been at the school for 15 years and received government funding.

“Now we’ve got to fund ourselves and seek out our own connections,” he said.

Sub-Lt Hine has about 20 cadets, who march under a new banner provided by the National Servicemen’s Association of Australia’s (NSAA) south-east sub-branch.

Cadets can enrol from the year they turn 13 and are discharged at age 20.

Visit www.navycadets.gov. au or call Sub-Lt Hine on 0401 809 315 for more information.

SPORT Rangers in it... to win it

By JARROD POTTER SEABL - Semi Finals DANDENONG Rangers had to dig deep to finally put away Ballarat after a supreme SEABL finals come-back.

After a back-and-forth opening half, through the third term it appeared the Rangers would canter home after building an impressive 20-point lead on the back of starring efforts from Daequon Montreal (31 points), Lucas Walker (18 points and 12 rebounds) and Chuck Long (16 points, 9 rebounds).

But with the season on the line in a do-or-die SEABL elimination final, the Miners didn’t go down without a fight.

Battling foul trouble and Dandenong’s rampaging offence, Ballarat chipped away at the deficit as Roy Booker, Gregory Thondique and Everard Bartlett caused nothing but headaches down the stretch for the home side.

Dragging the gap back to four in the final term - 73-69 - it took the heroics of Long and Montreal to save the Rangers in the end.

Long reeled in a number of pointsaving blocks, steals and rebounds while Montreal smashed in his seventh 30-point haul of the season, spending a full 40 minutes on court.

Long’s five-point effort late in the fourth - with a match-defining block, before hitting the jumper coast-tocoast and the ensuring free throw raised the bar once again to where the Miners could not strike.

Thondique’s reach-around block on a dunk-attemping Montreal left a tiny glimmer of hope in the Ballarat camp

with a minute to go, but Dandenong calmly tightened the screws and shot out the match to advance.

“The game is always a game of runs - the momentum can shift,” Dandenong coach Darren Perry said.

“They had it in the first term, then we were down a few at quarter time, then we got a great second quarter run, finished the half well and looked like we were going to really do something in the third.

“But like all teams that make the finals, they (Ballarat) had a great run into the finals - they’ve hung tough and won games you thought they wouldn’t win - and they found a way to come back at us.”

Dandenong men head down the highway on Saturday night to face Geelong, with the winner through to the SEABL East Conference final against Albury-Wodonga.

Meanwhile the Rangers’ women had a far easier time, dispatching Geelong 78-68 to earn a place in the SEABL East Conference final.

While the Supercats had fired out of the blocks - taking a 38-36 lead at the half - Dandenong returned from the rooms with renewed confidence and clamped down on any of Geelong’s offensive forays.

Aimie Clydesdale (16 points) started off proceedings in the third term with an incredible chase-down steal on future WNBL team mate Sara Blicavs, before running the court and draining the three-pointer on the next play.

From there the Rangers’ outing steadily improved as Dandenong sunk

The mighty efforts of triple SEABL premiership winners Alison Downie (7 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists) and Clare Papavs (13 points, 6 rebounds) shone through on the evening, with fellow champion Amelia Todhunter (17 points) stepping back up to her best.

Papavs relished her defensive role on Blicavs - clamping down on the Australian Opal and keeping her to 16 points.

Dandenong’s hustle set itself apart from Geelong as Rangers fought through the pressure to make its way back to the conference championship.

Coach Larissa Anderson put the win down to an almighty word.

“One word… defense,” Anderson said.

“That’s the only thing I spoke about at half-time.

“I’m never worried about our shots - even though I went off at them in that last bit as offensively we were getting rushes of blood to try and get on top when we needed to run it down - but that’s what we’re about.

“It was just about team defense and just energy and I thought the energy - Alison Downie in particular in that third quarter - was excellent.”

Dandenong will face the winner of Geelong and Nunawading in two weeks and Anderson implored the Rangers’ fans to get along and support their side in the conference final.

WNBL - Fixtures

Season opener on the road

By JARROD POTTER TWO months out and the WNBL season is shaping up to be a wall-to-wall bonanza.

The fixture has been announced with incoming Rangers’ coach Larissa Anderson set to begin her WNBL coaching career on the road.

Dandenong heads up to the AIS (Australian Institute of Sport) to face the UC Capitals before Anderson’s first home game against WNBL newcomers South East Queensland and she was excited to see the season inch another step closer.

“Absolutely does - the fixture is only bounced around once or twice - now that it’s released, and our first game is October 10 and it’s against Canberra, so it’s all becoming pretty surreal,” Anderson said.

With the introduction of South East Queensland, the byes are gone from the schedule and Dandenong will have

to back up from October to March with only the December holiday break to help rest up and recover.

The Rangers have to deal with four-double header rounds and a tough schedule consisting of two Perth trips and back-to-back trips to Queensland to face Townsville on Sunday 20 December before returning from the Christmas/New Year’s break to clash with (SEQ) South East Queensland on Saturday 2 January.

The other unique feature of the schedule is a Monday night showdown against cross-town rivals Melbourne in an Australia Day eve battle from 7.30pm.

Dandenong’s WNBL Roster has yet to be finalised with the eight signed Rangers - Sara Blicavs, Aimie Clydesdale, Steph Cumming, Alex Bunton, Lauren Scherf, Tenaya Phillips, Annalise Pickrel and Tegan Cunningham - having just begun their

training in preparation for the season opener and Dandenong’s first home game in Round 2 against SEQ. “Big week this week - started on court this week with the WNBL last night (Monday) - exciting to have them all in town, everyone was training except for Sara and Annalise,” Anderson said.

“It’s definitely hitting home and getting exciting and once SEABL finishes we’ll be able to really focus on the WNBL season.

“First home game in Round 2 will be a Friday nighter against SEQ and we’d love the support - we’re a young team that will play a quick, exciting brand of basketball and we can’t wait to get into the season.”

SPORT SOUTHERN FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE Division 6 - Grand Final

Maiden glory all true grit

By JARROD POTTER

Dandenong Redlegs claimed the SFNL Division-6 netball premiership on Saturday.

ONE year in the netball ranks was all it took for Dandenong Football Netball Club to claim a gutsy Southern league premiership.

While Mount Waverley surged towards the final minutes - with fatigue and injury decimating the Redlegs’ goalers - Dandenong’s earlier brilliance through the second and third terms in particular saw them across the line to claim the Division-6 premiership 38-31 at the Springvale Netball Complex on Saturday.

Dandenong Redlegs’ captain/ coach - and best on court medallist Mandi Hall - said it was a phenomenal feeling to hoist the cup in the maiden season of Dandenong netball.

“Inaugural year for Dandenong with a bunch of new girls - it’s amazing, easy bunch of girls to work with though and they deserved this right from the beginning,” Hall said.

The girls gritted their teeth despite the challenges of their first grand final together - especially once they lost star goaler Corrine Pegram to a serious ankle injury.

“Having our vice-captain going

down in that last quarter - pretty badly as she’s waiting for an ambulance - it rattled us a bit and had to make some changes we weren’t ready for,” Hall said.

“Already had one of our shooters out, but Beck (Smith) did well coming in and we held on and did it.”

2015 has been on nothing but an upwards trajectory for the Redlegs since joining the association ranks this year - with Dandenong finishing second during the home-andaway season only separated by percentage to Mount Waverley.

Hall wanted to thank the club for backing her desire to bring in netball along with her girls who fought it out all year to truly earn their flag.

“I want to thank the committee and the supporters - the footy boys - for supporting me and my decision to want netball at Dandenong,” Hall said.

“It’s proved to be a winner, we’ve got a great bunch of girls and a bunch of new supporters… and I just want to thank the club for letting me roll with it… and for the girls - I love you, you’ve been amazing.”

Hall wanted to thank the committee and sponsor ‘Melbourne Online Motors’ for their support.

Hang on Soupy

By JASON ADAMS IN HER ninth attempt at a metropolitan win, Kraken Soupy finally delivered the goods on Thursday evening at Sandown Park.

Kraken Soupy was fast to begin from box one asserting her authority early. It was then a case of catch me if you can as Kraken Soupy extended her margin down the back straight, before going on to win by three lengths in a smart 29.55.

Trainer, part owner and breeder Kevin Eyles was “pleased as punch” with the run.

“I thought her run was excellent, she hasn’t been jumping that good lately… luckily she came out well last night (Thursday) and picked the right night to do it - I’m pleased as punch,” said Eyles.

The win shines plenty of attention on Kraken Soupy,

something she thrives on back at home.

“She’s a happy little dog, she just loves affection and that’s what she gets - we look after her in every way we can.”

It was the third time Kraken Soupy has visited Sandown Park within the month, after Eyles was uncertain if she was able to run out a strong 515 metres.

“Early in her career I took her to Sandown but it was just a bit too far for her.

“For a while I didn’t think she was quite strong enough to race in Melbourne, now she’s a bit stronger she gets the trip fine.”

The Kraken greyhounds have a large following, with all members of family owning their own Kraken hat.

“Our family makes up the Eyles syndicate… we got the Kraken hats a little while back, everyone including the grandkids owns

Mandi Hall and Tori Webb celebrate Dandenong’s maiden SFNL premiership. 143416

Kraken Soupy and connections were thrilled to finally pick up a metropolitan win.

Picture: SUPPLIED a Kraken hat - it’s all part of the fun.”

Hailing from Murchison, a small town on the Goulburn River, Eyles has been involved in greyhound racing for 15 years and it all started with the transaction of a car.

“I had a car for sale and the fella who bought it talked me into forming a syndicate, before that I didn’t know anything about greyhounds - now we’re doing the lot, owning, training and breeding.”

Dandy’s best in the hunt HIGH-FLYING speccies, long bombs and superb goals - these are the trademarks of junior footy finals throughout Dandenong.

With North Dandenong, Parkmore and Noble Park still in the hunt across the boys’ divisions, the best of our local footballers remain alive in the South East

Juniors football premiership hunt.

Dandenong’s South East Juniors sides locked horns in preliminary finals around the region on Sunday morning.

What a difference a week can make

By JARROD POTTER TURNING around the inclement form of last week, Greater Dandenong’s finals-bound sides emphatically swept aside their lower ranked opponents in the last home-and-away round.

EFL DIVISION 1 - Round 18 EXCISING its wounds from two miserable losses back to back against high flying Balwyn and Norwood, Noble Park took out some frustrations in a 129-point demolition of lowly Lilydale.

Mick Fogarty’s men would boot 24.16 (160) to turn around its errant form and enter the finals on a high note.

Kyle Martin had a phenomenal day out. You can put the votes in his back pocket already as the Bulls’ midfielder/forward snagged 52 possessions, 11 marks and five goals in a best on ground performance.

The ball ricocheted out of the Bulls’ back line at light-speed as Jackson Sketcher and the Kempermans Stewart and Bobby - ensured Lilydale would have scant possession.

Also starring was Shayne Allan - as the forward found a heap of the pill in a seven-goal haul while Luke Cody and Jarrod Plymin (4 goals each) also savoured their time in the forward line.

“We did what good sides do and

that’s bounce back after a couple of ordinary weeks,” Fogarty said.

“It was a great win, especially with Craig Anderson, Trent Robertson and Piva (Wright) out.

“To get them back in - those three will definitely play - we’ll get some great stock back next week and we’ll hopefully go to Norwood - apart from Valenti - at full strength and there will be some tough decisions this week.”

Forward turned champion defender Brett Dore had to exit the game at halftime on account of his wife going into labour.

Noble Park will face Norwood at Bayswater Oval on Saturday from 2.10pm in a qualifying final.

“We set ourselves at the start of the year… people thought it was a foregone conclusion, with who we picked up, but it’s a long year,” Fogarty said.

“Injuries can occur and things happen… we were always confident we would make the finals and was a matter of where we finished… we aimed for top three and got it so here we go.”

VAFA DIVISION 2 - Round 18 ST JOHN’S pasted Elsternwick to the wall in a 96-point whitewash. The JOCs - coming off their most heartwrenching loss of the year last week

against Ivanhoe - had champion performers across the board.

Aaron Thornton (4 goals) finished the regular season on 75 goals to finish second behind Richmond Central’s Jake Munro in the league goal-kicking, while Gerald Ennis (3 goals) and Rhys Dyker (2 goals) were also prominent. The usual suspects Corey Ely, Glen Costas, Manny Jakwot and Jarrod Gaget were clear standouts in the heavenly performance.

St John’s will travel to face Ivanhoe in a qualifying final on Saturday.

VAFA DIVISION 4 - Round 18 MASALA finished its inaugural Division 4 season on a high note, knocking off South Mornington by 16 points.

Sam Freeman (5 goals) and Wayne McMahon were exceptional up forward alongside Zachary Kelly, Josh Kyle and Furkan Erkel. The Tigers finished the year in 10th with a 2-14 record.

SFL DIVISION 2 - Round 18 KEYSBOROUGH had its work cut out against lowly Heatherton, with the home side not shying away from the contest in an eventual 36-point Burra barrage.

Newly anointed forward tandem

Kyle Martin was at peak performance in Noble Park’s 129-point win, snaring 52 possessions and booting five goals. 143418 Picture: JARROD POTTER Matt Collett (5 goals) and Davor Rajic (4 goals) swept aside the Heatherton defence while Ryan Goodes, Shane Dunn and Tim Bacic mopped things up through the middle of the park.

The Burra will now battle Murrumbeena in a qualifying final on Saturday

In other Division-2 matches Doveton Eagles lost their final match of the season, a 106-point loss to Murrumbeena, while Springvale Districts capped off the year with a gutsy effort against Hampton - losing 5.8 (38) to 7.12 (54).

Fences no barrier to Piper

By JARROD POTTER

Burra out on a high note

By JARROD POTTER BACK-TO-BACK was not meant to be for Keysborough, as an inaugural Southern Football Netball League premiership slipped from its grasp with a 38-46 grand-final loss to Dingley.

After switching to Southern (SFNL) this season, leaving the now defunct Casey Cardinia Football Netball League with a B-Grade premiership, the Burra was immediately thrust into the SFNL Division-1 competition - slotting in straight away at the top of the ladder.

Keysborough had earned the week off, after defeating Dingley in the semi-final, but that result wouldn’t transpire again as the Dingoes learned the necessary lessons to best the Burra.

Looking to earn back-to-

back flags at the senior level, the Burra flew out of the blocks in the SFNL decider but shot by shot Dingley returned fire and surged ahead.

Facing former clubwoman Penny Byers-Timms, the Burra could not halt the steady flow of Dingoes’ goals, or accurately enough hit their own.

A 25-32 half-time margin spelled trouble for Keysborough, but to the side’s credit the initiative never slackened even in the dying minutes as the lead ballooned back out to eight by the final siren.

Laura Agius battled on in the arc while goal shooter Elise Boyd stepped up in absence of Keysborough’s main 2015 shooter Chloe Plumb who ruptured her ACL in the last minutes of the semi-final victory over Dingley.

The gallant efforts of midcourt tandem Alana and Bree

Vieceli stood out alongside captain Sam Downie - who threw herself around the backhalf to try and stem the Dingley attack.

“I think we maybe chose the wrong options down the court,” Downie said.

“They applied some really good pressure and we just dropped it off and lost our run.

“Guess it also came down to our goals as well - made a few and the rebounds were there, but it’s got to be the first one in.”

Downie thought the Burra’s first year in the new league had been a strong one and the result gives them plenty of motivation heading towards 2016.

“It’s been good for us - really competitive competition so hopefully next season we can take it.”

broken back or fractured vertebrae.

But just getting those four minutes on field and receiving his inaugural Dandenong jumper make the experience well worth it - despite its sudden end.

“I was quite emotional when I received my jumper off Blacky (Dandenong coach Craig Black) and my dad presenting it to me before the game,” Piper said.

“Even though I only played four minutes, I can look back and say I’ve played a TAC game at 16.”

Up until the accident, 2015 was a year of unending success for Piper as he earned a spot in Berwick’s senior line-up for Round 1 and continued to push on the door until the Stingrays’ couldn’t help but add him to the side.

That small taste of TAC Cup football will drive Piper to get back into the ranks in 2016, while powering through his rehabilitation and hopefully returning to the field later this year.

“I’ve just got to rest up now and keep my body healthy for next year,” he said.

Piper wanted to thank the Stingrays for the opportunity and his family and friends for their support and being there for him throughout his football journey.

FOUR minutes… scarcely enough time to make a piece of toast, let alone savour all aspects of a TAC Cup debut, but if that’s all Dandenong Stingrays’ midfielder Reece Piper receives this year then he’s happy with it.

Piper, 16, from Berwick, is officially the youngest player on any TAC Cup list this year, but in spite of his age he barrelled head-long into the side that took on Oakleigh Chargers, after an impressive senior debut with Berwick and some promising under-19’s form.

After taking his jumper - number 53 - and getting into the thick of it early, Piper’s debut ground to a screening halt after a sickening collision with the boundary-line fence left him writhing in agony - requiring a trip to Dandenong Hospital by ambulance.

He was cleared of major damage on Saturday evening as tests showed he had torn some of the ligaments in his back - utter relief considering how bad it could have been potentially with a
