DRIVE AWAY REGO 1DX9UW

“Not again!” Midfielder Luke Bee-Hugo is consoled by team-mate Marty Leinmueller after another season of promise had turned into despair for the Cranbourne Football Club. Saturday’s 30-point loss to Berwick was the Eagles’ fourth grand final defeat in a row, prompting coach Simon Goosey to ask if there was an issue that needs addressing.

“It’s something we definitely need to address as a group because you can’t go into grand finals thinking ‘what if we lose’,” Goosey said. “Who knows what the impact of losing a couple of grand finals has had on each individual, but we need to embrace that discussion in order to go forward.” For more on football’s biggest day, see Sport.

AN ICE-user who pleaded guilty to persistently visiting and bashing his ex-girlfriend described one of his attacks as not an assault but a “hug”.

Samuel George Patch, 25, of Hampton Park, repeatedly breached intervention orders and committed escalating violence against the victim, according to a police summary presented at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday 21 September.

Patch visited the victim’s Dandenong North house to smoke ice with her, then accused her of being a prostitute and working at a brothel, and asked how much men pay for her, the court was told.

He stayed until the next morning – in breach of a night curfew as part of his bail conditions.

At 6am, Patch aggressively pushed the victim onto her bed, grabbed her by the hair and pulled her head towards him. In the process, Patch scratched the victim’s right cheek.

She escaped to report the incident to Dandenong police.

He told police at the time that he didn’t think his most recent attack on 9 August was an assault.

“I see it as a hug,” he said.

At the time, Patch was serving a 12-month corrections order which began on 27 January.

In September Patch was issued a limited intervention order after assaulting the victim and smashing a mirror and window at her home, the court was told.

He was subsequently charged with breaching intervention orders in November, December and February.

On one of those occasions, Patch punched the victim to the

face after they had spent the day smoking ice together.

At another time, he ignored a five-metre ban from the victim by visiting her Clarinda home, punching her to the face and stealing her handbag, purse and phone.

She suffered a bruised back, cut lip and black eye as a result.

The handbag was returned by Patch’s brother-in-law two days later.

Magistrate Greg Connellan sentenced a smirking Patch to two months’ jail for breaching a corrections order plus a consecutive one months’ jail for his recent offending.

When released, Patch must serve an 18-month corrections order, including supervision, judicial monitoring, drug and mental health treatment and behavioural programs.

He was ordered not to contact or associate with the victim during the order.

“As a young man, it’s a pity to see you in custody but you are continually using ice and while on ice you assault your girlfriend.”

Patch was also fined $500 for two counts of unlicensed driving and cannabis possession.

Mr Connellan said he’d shown a “hell of a lot of faith” in the accused.

The 90-day jail term – which included 49 days of pre-sentence detention was “sufficient” only if Patch complied with the future corrections order.

“It seems in my mind that one month without a corrections order wouldn’t cut it.

“If you don’t comply with the corrections order, bring your toothbrush.”

All clear for Collison

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS RESIDENTS at a Cranbourne East residential estate have been spared a mooted $1 million-plus council planning bill to pave the way for them to subdivide their land.

For many years, Collison Estate’s residents have been divided over whether further urban development should be allowed in the semi-rural locale.

Cr Amanda Stapledon said she was confident Casey Council had at last found a “way forward” to the impasse.

“It is a win-win for everyone, which will allow people to develop while others don’t have to.

“And there won’t be a big impost to the residents or a big impost to the council.”

The possible solution is to rezone the estate - which is within the urban growth boundary - as general residential, with up to three development plan overlays.

This would give residents the choice of whether to subdivide or not, or to opt into being connected to mains water and sewerage services.

It would also shelve the council’s proposed Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) for the estate, which would cost the council $1 million plus in upfront planning costs.

The council was set to possibly bill upfront the estate’s landowners - if they

were “willing or able” - at least $10,600 each.

Ms Stapledon said a minority of the estate’s residents were still against development but the council “got to the point it had to do something”.

“We shouldn’t be prescribing how people in Collison estate live.

“We should be giving them the opportunity to do it or not do it - it’s important they get to choose.”

Cr Stapledon said the planning changes could take up to 18 months, about half the time of a PSP. Cr Gary Rowe said the “only way forward” was for a group of residents to partner a developer.

“It comes down to the costs of development and when it will be viable.

“It will be the market that determines when it is developed, which is as it should be.”

Graham Smith, who has lived in the estate since 1992, said residents long sought the right for subdivisions of up to 12 lots.

He said councillors had passed four resolutions for a PSP which had not been acted upon by council officers.

He described the latest solution as “a really good outcome - provided it’s not a way of delaying things”.

“I just want the options available to us in the future.”

Ring is the thing POLICE are urging the owner of a gold ring found in Cranbourne to come forward.

Detectives have released a photo of the ring, found in Cranbourne three weeks ago, in the hope someone will be able to help with their investigation.

Proof of ownership will be required.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Constable Munro, or the property officer at Cranbourne Police, on 5991 0600.

CRANBOURNE police were “amazed” and “touched” after being presented with gift ‘survival kits’ by a group of Girl Guides.

Senior Sergeant Phil Atkins said some police officers were “quite emotional” when they received the 50 kits - and some complimentary guides biscuits - from Cranbourne Dolphin Guides this month.

“I was blown away with what the kids have done. They’ve put such a lot of thought into it.”

The kits contain survival items - each with a thoughtful meaning - such as bubbles to blow away worries, matches to light when feeling burnt out and lollipops for when officers’ day sucks.

The guides also wrote personal notes of thanks and included a shiny star to show they appreciated the officers’ work.

Most of the kits have taken pride of place on the recipients’ desks.

Cranbourne police presented certificates of thanks to the girl guides on Tuesday morning, 22 September, and there are plans to give them an insider’s tour of the station in coming weeks.

Guides member Isobella said the group wanted to thank po-

The place where dreams come true

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH NO LONGER a dream but a reality, Livvi’s Place, can now be crossed off Casey councillor Amanda Stapledon’s wish list.

“It’s been a 20-year-old dream of mine to establish an inclusive play space in the City of Casey and I was on cloud nine on opening day - it was one of the best days of my life,” Cr Stapledon said.

Opened to a sea of children of all abilities on Sunday 13 September, Livvi’s Place means more to Cr Stapledon than just a playground.

“Often children with a disability miss out on playing with their family and friends because the infrastructure isn’t in place to cater for them and they’re left at home.

“For me this play space is about making things possible because the spirit to include everyone is there but the way the community is currently set up doesn’t always accommodate for children and people with disabilities,” Cr Stapledon explained.

Having personally experienced the exclusion of having an autistic child, Cr Stapledon said her 23-year-old son Pete would have gained a lot from a play space like Livvi’s.

“Pete and I were often excluded from so many things because I knew that he couldn’t attend because either he might hurt himself or others or he was just not welcome and that’s not the community we see today,” she said.

Dealing with her son Pete who also has a brain tumour, obsessive compulsive disorder, intellectual disabilities, epilepsy and challenging behaviours, Cr Stapledon said Livvi’s Place would

Cr Amanda Stapledon with the excited and happy Castillo family who adore their new local play ground. 144523 Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS have assisted in Pete’s social and emotional development.

“I had to teach Pete how to sit up, how to crawl, walk and how to do certain things because it didn’t come naturally and that’s why a playground like this can help with those skills - and we all know kids learn so well through play,” she said.

The $1.1 million play space brought about through public donations and fundraisers along with the City of Casey and the Touched by Olivia Foundation still has some finishing touches to come.

Cr Stapledon said she wants to see a sensory wall installed.

“For children who are tactile defensive and don’t like touching things, a sensory wall means they can feel different textures and learn different

words about what they’re touching, for example spongy, soft, rough, spiky.

“These are the things you often take for granted when you have a child but when you have a child with a disability you have to step them through it,” Cr Stapledon said.

Along with a sensory wall, Cr Stapledon would like to see lights, acoustic equipment, such as musical instruments, and illustrated and written signage for each activity added to the space.

“The cost for Livvi’s Place was significant but if you were to build all playgrounds this way they’d be no more expensive than any other playground, they’d just be part and parcel of the way things are done.

“I think it’s important to limit the isolation and we know that isolation

Amanda and her son Pete are looking forward to spending some quality time together at Livvi's Playspace. contributes to a huge amount of mental health issues and I don’t think it’s fair for a child not to get to play - it’s their birth right,” she said.

Proud and excited to bring her own son to the space for a play, Cr Stapledon hasn’t been able to wipe the smile off her face since the opening.

“Over the past seven years as a councillor the opening of Livvi’s Place has had to be my greatest joy.

“Parents said to me ‘we can’t believe you are considering kids with a disability’.

“It truly was the best day,” she said.

Council boss to keep rolling past 21st year

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS CASEY council has moved to extend its chief executive’s tenure without readvertising the position.

Mike Tyler has been the council’s only CEO for the past 21 years, with his position set to expire in early 2016.

Mayor Mick Morland said Mr Tyler had proven to be “one of local government’s most talented and respected chief executive officers”. “(The) council has carefully considered what it requires in a CEO before making this decision.

“It has taken into account the future needs of Casey and Mr Tyler’s performance.

“Mr Tyler continues to deliver for council, meeting and at times exceeding his performance criteria and therefore it is not necessary to advertise the position.”

In October 2013, councillors rejected calls to sack Mr Tyler after he was found guilty of failing to properly disclose a conflict of interest to the council and mayor Shar Balmes.

Dandenong Magistrates’ Court declined to fine or convict Mr Tyler.

It instead ordered him to pay $1000 to his partner’s fundraising efforts for a breast cancer charity, to pay $9000 in agreed prosecution costs and placed him on a 12-month good behaviour bond.

After the case’s resolution, then-mayor Amanda Stapledon said the councillors were unified in their support for Mr Tyler.

“Under Mr Tyler’s leadership, the City of Casey has enjoyed sound financial management and delivered record investment in community infrastructure and services for one of the fastest growing cities in Australia.”

Councillors will vote on a resolution to extend Mr Tyler’s contract at a council meeting on 6 October.

A Casey council spokesman said Mr Tyler’s future salary and tenure length were still being negotiated.

Bikes give students a boost THE Happiness Cycle hopes free bikes will cause a chain reaction for students in the south east.

The Bicycle Network and Coca-Cola initiative teamed up with Beacon Foundation at the State Basketball Centre in Wantirna on Wednesday 9 and Thursday 10 September.

About 1000 students received bikes in a bid to improve their health, independence and connectivity and learnt bike mechanics and maintenance, road safety, balance, awareness and endurance.

Beacon schools Noble Park and Cranbourne secondary colleges, Keysborough College, Emerson School in Dandenong, Hampton Park Secondary School and Dandenong Valley Special Developmental School in Narre Warren were involved.

Beacon establishes successful transitions from education to employment.

“Mobility and independence in the community has a huge impact on how our students successfully transition from education into the workplace,” national marketing and communications manager Andrean Clarkson said.

“By teaming up with The Happiness Cycle we are providing them with another means of autonomy, assisting growth and enhancing employment opportunities.”

I’m neither a pretender nor a know it all person but as an ex-government minister, ex-secondary school principal, ex-secondary school teacher in Victoria and, above all, a migrant to Australia, I wish to have a say in the refugees debate.

Europe is under siege. It is being subjected to the greatest invasion of the 21st century.

Some European leaders like Angela Merkel and Francois Hollande seem to have lost touch with realities.

The UN General Secretary Ban Ki-moon is wrong; the EU president Jean-Claude Juncker is wrong too.

Nobody has a right to criticise Hungary’s efforts to protect its borders.

Likewise, no country in the world, whether it’s America or Indonesia, can dictate to Australia its policy on refugees.

One can imagine what would have been the situation in Australia if the Abbot Liberal Government had not taken a bold and courageous decision to stop the boats.

Today many world leaders are sighting Australia as an example in regard to the migrants crisis.

The federal Liberal MP Jason Wood is right.

Of course, the heartbreaking photo of Aylan Kurdi has moved everybody but what about the hundreds of Nigerian schoolgirls that were kidnapped by Boko Haram?

They have been compelled to change their religion; they have been raped.

Some have been forced to marry their Islamic captors and others to work as sex slaves.

What about the Iraki Christians that were massacred and their churches burnt down?

Those who escaped the massacre were sold as sex slaves.

Also, what about the great number of migrants that have died already because of unscrupulous people smugglers and due to the failure of European leaders to adopt a bold policy like Australia’s “to stop the boats”?

One has to be naive not to realise that the majority of the refugees are economic migrants.

They have different religions, different cultures and different values.

Many have publicly declared that they are migrating to Europe in search of a better future.

One may ask the question - how can refugees, if they were genuine, choose which countries they want to go to, namely Germany, Austria, UK, France et cetera?

Why don’t rich Arab Gulf states like Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and United Arab Emirates welcome refugees, especially those from Syria?

Why do all Syrian migrants flee westward rather than seek a safe haven in the rich Persian Gulf states? Why not in Iran?

Whether the Gulf states are signatories to the international conventions on refugees or not, is immaterial at this particular juncture.

Many Australians may wonder whether the federal Liberal MP Ewen Jones who said “Australia should take as many 50,000 Syrian refugees” has thought about the family reunion issue that will follow later? Can the Hon. MP Jones not foresee the inevitable problems related to housing, employment, health, education, “integration” and other social, religious and political issues that will follow.

Can the Hon. member guess how many of those 50,000 migrants will not be the supporters of IS and jihadists?

Let us therefore not be overruled by our emotion, instead, let us think with our head not with our heart.

Quote: “If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs…” - Rudyard Kipling.

We hope that the government and the Opposition in Australia will have a common bipartisan approach in dealing with this unprecedented migrants’ invasion.

Council should look forward Mayor Mick Moreland has officially informed Casey residents and ratepayers that council intends to reappoint Mike Tyler as our CEO from 21 March 2016.

This is very a disappointing decision for a number of compelling reasons.

The absence of any competitive selection process for the position of CEO means that we won’t necessarily have the best candidate for the job.

Leadership models are changing and Casey needs a new model of leadership that is capable of thinking outside of the conventional wisdom, parallel thinking.

Traditional models of leadership will be highly unlikely to deal successfully with the challenges facing Casey.

Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Rapid population growth and climate change are behind many of the problems now impacting on Casey.

These issues, however, require leaders with the capacity to hold community meetings with local residents.

Neither the mayor or CEO have attempted to engage Casey residents on the programs we will need for the 21 century to address the impact of growth and climate change on the quality of life in Casey.

Leadership today requires a lot more than financial management and reliance on vertical thinking.

Leaders in the 21st century need the capacity for parallel thinking.

Guilty - but no extra jail time AN IMPRISONED Cranbourne North man will not serve further jail time after pleading guilty to a $50,000 home burglary.

Agim Abdi, 32, who appeared via a prison video-link at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday 21 September, pleaded guilty to three charges, including breaking into a car parked at a Melbourne Airport long-term car park in March.

Abdi used an address book and household keys found in the vehicle to break into the owner’s house in Box Hill North, the court was told.

During the burglary, Abdi stole birth certificates, passports, clothing, jewellery and

electronic goods valued at $50,000. He also made more than $3000 of unauthorised transactions using the owner’s credit cards at a Harvey Norman outlet, a Ray’s Outdoors store and a Berwick ATM. Police prosecutor Senior Constable Tanique McFarlane told the court that Abdi was identified on CCTV while using the credit cards.

Further evidence was found in the accused’s bedroom.

Abdi declined a police interview at the time.

Abdi’s lawyer said the accused was remanded on 9 March over the offences, which weren’t considered when he was jailed for 14 months at a Dandenong Magistrates’ Court

hearing on 4 May. During that hearing, Abdi pleaded guilty to high-end burglaries and thefts, including a $20,000 ransack that cleaned out a Lynbrook home in 2013.

He was also sentenced for breaching two community corrections orders, stealing mail from home mailboxes in Berwick and taking trade tools and two jaws-of-life in a commercial burglary in Wheelers Hill.

He had already served 56 days in pre-sentence detention and was eligible for parole from 8 August.

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen convicted and fined Abdi $1500, noting further jail time would interfere with his parole prospects.

Act Sen Sgt Green said the Casey Highway Patrol was getting on the “front foot”, targeting the three neighbouring south-eastern municipalities.

“Because Casey has been identified as a high-risk Local Government Area for road trauma we’ll be getting the lion’s share of assistance outside our division,” he said.

POLICE are getting geared up for an operation targeting drink-drivers in Casey, Cardinia and Dandenong as the AFL Grand Final approaches.

While Operation Scoreboard will be officially launched state-wide from 1 to 4 October - Grand Final weekend - local cops in the south-east will be out in force earlier, signalling their intent of “saturating the roads” and getting even tougher on drink and drug driving,

and speeding.

Acting Senior Sergeant Pat Green, from the Casey Cardinia Highway Patrol, said a lack of public transport in Casey, Cardinia and Dandenong meant a rise in the likelihood of drinkdriving.

“We got an intelligence brief and our analysts looked at previous Grand Final weekends, and now because it’s a public holiday people are likely to be drinking more,” Act Sen Sgt Green said.

“After there was a three kilometre walk up a steep track to Lone Pine for the Australian service, we welcomed a seat in the stands and commemorated all those who served not (just in) the Gal-

lipoli campaign but all the conflicts and peace keeping settlements that Australia has been involved in.”

She said it was important for everyone to “share their connection” with World War I. “It is important for all young people

“There is so much of this 100-yearold history around us still today.”

THE home of racing in the south-east can expect a shiny, gold cup to take up temporary residence before the spring racing carnival takes hold of Melbourne.

The $175,000, 18-carat gold Emirates Melbourne Cup trophy will land in Cranbourne on Thursday 24 September after touring New Zealand, Malaysia and Australia.

In its last leg of the fivemonth tour the cup will take centre stage at the Cranbourne Turf Club, where residents will be able to get up close and personal with the treasured trophy.

Cranbourne Turf Club chief executive officer Neil Bainbridge said the club was delighted to welcome the people’s cup.

“Racing is synonymous with Cranbourne and we have a strong suite of Cranbourne representatives who have won the Emirates Melbourne Cup in the past, including Pat Hyland who rode ‘What A Nuisance’ to victory in the 1985 Melbourne Cup,” Mr Bainbridge said.

The winning schools that have participated in a cup colouring competition will also be announced on the day.

EVEN before she travelled to Gallipoli this year, Gul Dasta Ali knew more than most 14-year-olds about the impact of war.

Her father was killed in Afghanistan under the Taliban regime soon after Gul was born.

This tragedy saw Gul, now a student at Alkira Secondary College in Cranbourne North, flee with her family to Pakistan and then on to Australia where they have lived for the past 10 years.

This connection to war held a special significance for Gul when the Casey teen travelled to Gallipoli in April as one of 80 student delegates to represent Victoria at the 2015 Anzac Dawn Service.

When she was recognised by the council recently with her Casey peer Sammy who also travelled to Gallipoli, Gul spoke of the ever-lasting toll of losing loved ones in conflict.

“I think it was just, understanding war,” Gul told Star News.

“I saw that within my own family, the impact of war. You see it all over the news... I think it personalised the issue for me.

“I look at the Anzacs as humans, as people, as individuals who had families.”

Gul’s family moved to Victoria after applying for a humanitarian visa as the conflict in Afghanistan waged on.

She came to Australia when she was so young that she can’t remember too much of her time spent in the Middle East.

Australia has always been her home.

And in this way as well Gul’s journey to Turkey was made extra special as she stood in the “ice-cold darkness” before the Anzac service.

“We stood amongst thousands of Australians and New Zealanders awaiting the break of dawn at the shores of

IN the third of a series reflecting on the Numan Haider shooting, CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS sought the views of Holt federal MP Anthony Byrne.

Byrne praise for response THERE’S much to be proud of the way the community in the Holt electorate handled the difficult aftermath of Numan Haider’s shooting, says its MP Anthony Byrne.

But this wasn’t reflected in the portrayal of the police officers involved and the Islamic community by “stupid press”, he told Federal Parliament on Thursday 17 September.

It would have been good if “idiots from the media” occasionally wrote about the “incredible work” done by community members rather than “wedge politics” he said in the House of Representatives. “(The community) did not overreact. They were calm, they were strong, they were resilient and they were committed to community wellbeing.

“Take a leaf from us. We dealt with this situation. It is a pity that this damn press did not actually report that.”

Mr Byrne described the fateful incident at Endeavour Hills Police Station on 23 September - which is being investigated by the State Coroner - as a young man who tried to stab to death two police officers.

“Had he been successful,

Anthony Byrne says life has gone on in the new reality since the Endeavour Hills shooting last September. (he) would then have gone into the ... police station (and) tried to kill as many people as he could.

“If it were not for the bravery of two very fine men, an Australian Federal Police officer and a VicPol anti-terrorism officer, he would have been successful.”

He told Parliament he was proud of the police response to what was like a “scene from a horror movie” and to a subsequent Anzac Day terror plot.

He was also proud of the local Afghan community which “came to my office and said ‘what can we do to help? What

can we do to prevent this occurring again?’”

Mr Byrne has had ongoing meetings with police, security agencies and Muslim community leaders ever since, he told Star News.

They have talked about how to deal with the threat of Islamic State propaganda and the radicalisation of at-risk young people.

“Community capacity building projects which involve young people at risk is essential,” Mr Byrne said.

“I will be working with the State and Federal Governments to ensure that we get the programs that we need for this area.”

Mr Byrne said he had been determined to restore community confidence after the “great shock” of the Endeavour Hills incident.

The events showed the local community wasn’t immune from terrorism’s reach.

“I am very proud of how we dealt with this.

“The people of Endeavour Hills are a strong, resilient and proud community.

“Life has gone on with this new reality.”

Just one mosque, and online ban

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE Hampton Park teenager who had Anzac Day terror plot charges dropped has been placed on an interim control order which stops him going to any mosque bar one.

Harun Causevic, 18, was arrested in April and charged with conspiracy to commit acts done in preparation for terrorist acts, following pre-dawn counter-terrorism raids throughout Casey.

The charges were dropped after the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions decided there was insufficient evidence.

The control order, initiated by the Australian federal po-

lice, requires Causevic to wear a tracking device for 24 hours a day, includes a midnight to 5am curfew, and prohibits him from going to any mosque apart from the Emir Sultan Mosque in Dandenong.

The teen is also not permitted to use his mobile phone, computers, or web messaging services.

The order was granted last week, with a hearing planned for December to determine whether it would be confirmed.

It comes after Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton on Wednesday announced the set-up of a new Counter Terrorism Command team.

The new command will bring together a number of units within Victoria Police to form a single department responsible for counter terrorism activities including investigations, intelligence, policy and capability development. Causevic and Sevdet Ramdan Besim, also 18, of Hallam, were both arrested in the Operation Rising raids, while in July, Narre Warren teen Mehran Azami, 19, pleaded guilty to 19 counts of importing weapons and three other charges and was remanded in custody to appear at the County Court on 22 October.

Last month a 16-year-old British girl linked to another UK teen pleaded guilty to two terror offences.

Local heroes honoured GOING all the way back to 1945, an honour board has taken pride of place at the Tooradin CFA marking a special year for the community organisation.

Celebrating 70 years on the job, volunteers and friends of the Tooradin CFA can now look back at past and present volunteers, life members and managers.

Third Lieutenant at the Tooradin CFA Megan Angel said the board has hundreds of names on it.

“We did a lot of searching going through all the old records,” Megan said.

The sit down lunch and birthday celebrations held on Saturday 19 September also paid tribute to those who have given 20 years or more of service to the CFA. “Seven people were awarded brigade life medals including Rose Johnston who was secretary for more than 20 years and she also collected one on behalf of her husband Arthur Johnston who has passed,” Megan said.

The CFA situated on Evans Road was opened up for the public to take a look inside the fire truck and grab a piece of cake.

Ms Angel said 2015 marks 70 years of the organisation’s registration, adding that it may date back even further.

Hit to library’s books leaves finances far from fine

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH AN unexpected drop of $18,500 in State Government funds for the Casey-Cardinia Library Corporation (CCLC) has prompted South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Inga Peulich to look for answers.

The funds delivered in July highlighted that the library corporation’s annual increase in funding was below the state average.

A statement released from Ms Peulich’s office noted that the State Govern-

Golf club fire not deliberate

ment was delivering an average increase of 2.5 per cent in funding to Victorian libraries.

However the corporation has received an increase of 2.38 per cent.

“Casey is the third fastest growing municipality and it is essential that its library services are adequately funded,” Ms Peulich said.

The corporation's customer services manager of 18 years Pru Menzies said that in her time she couldn’t recall a similar dip in funds.

“There was no reason given for the drop - our CEO Peter Carter has written to all local MPs and to my knowledge we haven’t received a response from the State Government outlining how the funds were allocated,” Ms Menzies said.

The library corporation was awarded more than $2 million but Ms Peulich said “Daniel Andrews and the State Labor Government have failed to properly fund library services in the City of Casey that will impact important services for the community.”

Ms Menzies said the annual funds are spent on operational expenses, running costs, material and basic library services.

“I’m not entirely sure how the State Government divides the funds, there is a formula based on population and need but we are a growing population and it’s disappointing,” Ms Menzies said.

Ms Peulich has called on Minister for Local Government Natalie Hutchins to investigate the funding allocation in a bid to get the corporation’s full share of 2.5 per cent.

THE ceiling fire at the foyer of the Amstel Golf Club which erupted on Monday 14 September afternoon has been deemed non-suspicious by Victoria Police.

Manager at the Cranbourne club Peter Butler said it was a typical Monday and everyone was safely evacuated despite the “lively” events.

“We are not overly sure what started the blaze however it didn’t start in the roof cavity but external to the building,” Mr Butler said.

A large timber feature wall adjacent to the entrance is believed to have been the site of the blaze.

“We were fairly lucky that it was at the front entrance which gave us plenty of time to remove people so that wasn’t a concern,” he said.

It’s believed about 50 people were evacuated from the club, about 1pm, and Mr Butler said the foyer was out of use due to the “extensive damage”.

“It will most likely take a few weeks to rectify and see what else was harmed by smoke but there was no water damage,” he said.

Daily operations at the club are running as usual.

Get it solved in app snap IT’S fast, easy and free, and according to Lynbrook resident Christopher Morgan it gets results with the right people.

The community-minded app used properly seems to be cleaning up Lynbrook.

President of the Lynbrook Residents Association, Mr Morgan said he had seen the phone app Snap Send Solve make a difference first-hand.

“You only need a small number of people to use it to ensure things get fixed around your estate and in my experience the Casey Council has done a great job in responding to the app,” Mr Morgan said.

Using the app just two weeks ago - concerned about a broken playground post at the Banjo Paterson Park - Mr Morgan took a photo of the broken playground equipment on Saturday 5 September, sent it off to the Casey Council via the app and had a response the following Tuesday.

“I got a call from the council thanking me for contacting them and to confirm that they have temporarily removed the post for safety reasons and they will be going back soon to replace and repair it permanently.

“It’s so nice to see them acting so quickly on issues like this once they know about it,” Mr Morgan said.

An avid user of the smart phone app Mr Morgan said nine times out of 10 he receives a response from council within the same day of snapsolving.

“It’s very user friendly and getting the response reinforces that it wasn’t a waste of your time and you tend to snapsolve more often and it feeds on itself.

“I know that it can definitely help clean up your town and I think it has developed a culture

Casey’s communications manager Steve Coldham said the council had noticed the public’s online shift and was developing a digital strategy in response.

“We are working so residents and businesses can interact with council services via any device, anywhere and at any time.

“We are also considering how emerging technologies can create new opportunities for Casey’s economy and make the council a more efficient and effective organisation,” Mr Coldham explained.

The draft digital strategy will be available for resident feedback later this year.

Reach out to help

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD KATHARINA took it upon herself to try to help Robby.

Young mum Katharina Storey - a participant in the Substance Use Recover (SURe) service, run by EACH Social and Community Health, which recently opened a new Narre Warren facility, saw in her friend, Robby, another person battling addiction that she could relate to and help.

“I’m one of those people who takes it upon themselves to rescue the world one person at the time,” Katharina, 32, said.

“I had just had my son taken off me, and been requested to do drug screens.

“On my good days I would clean his (Robby’s) house... he lived in a computer chair, he’d either be high and dealing or drug-affected, or in his chair ’cause he was fighting to stay awake.

“He was not cut out for that life ... he got walked all over.”

Despite her best efforts, Katharina couldn’t save Robby. He passed away from heart failure in 2013 about 10 months after she had met him.

A few months ago Katharina wrote a poem in memory of Robby but was unable to have it published until now, when she sent it to Star News.

“He was the one I was closest to that had passed,” Katharina said of her friend.

“Looking at his situation from some angles, it seemed that Robby had put himself where he was during this time, nevertheless he still needed help.

“Robby had only been using ice for a year or so and I couldn’t be-

Katharina is all too aware of the consequences of drug addiction and she is now helping others to stay clean.

144616 Picture: ROB CAREW

lieve how fast it happened, to someone with such a kind heart - his situation really impacted me.

“It’s given me huge inspiration to stay clean ’cause I saw the impact.”

Star News reported on Katharina’s own journey back in July when she shared her story at the opening of the Narre Warren EACH facility.

Having started to use drugs at 15, Katharina soon turned to ecstasy and heroin, and later ice.

In more recent years Katharina fell pregnant.

She abstained from drugs during the nine-month pregnancy and while breast-feeding her son and thought she could remain that way - but she didn’t.

As friendships and relationships with her family members crumbled

around her, the Department of Human Services became involved in Katharina’s life and she lost custody of her son.

Having hit rock bottom with seemingly nowhere left to turn, Katharina found a glimmer of hope through the SURe program.

“I couldn’t continue on like this and although I thought counselling was a stupid joke, not understanding how someone could help you without knowing you, or have walked in your footsteps, I decided to give it a go,” she said.

“However, I found it amazing how much Nigel (her counsellor) knew and understood about me. I was hooked on these lessons to learn about Katharina.

“At times it was confronting

and I had no idea how I felt - I had blocked my feelings out for so long.”

With her son back in her care and her family relationships re-kindled, Katharina - also completing a certificate four in community development - wants to serve as a role model to help others battling drug addiction.

She said sharing her story with the crowd that attended the EACH opening, which included her family, was an important first step.

“It’s been very good for my family to understand my story and how I felt during the whole process,” Katharina said.

“Even when I was reading it out it was like ‘I’ve been through a lot and to come through the other side, I’ve done pretty well’.”

The friend I lost

By Katharina Storey I once had a friend called Robby, Who I loved so dear, He lived the last of his life only in fear.

All he wanted was to see his daughter, To give her all the things he’d bought her.

I literally became a maid for him, While he sat there committing sins.

The ice pipe had taken its toll, And took away his mind and soul.

He lived the last of his life in a chair, Filled with sorrow, anger and despair.

Involving himself in petty crime, It wasn’t long until he was looking at time.

His first visit to the hospital was extreme, Realizing he would never live the dream.

I cried to him for many nights, I could see he was losing the fight.

He never picked up his guitar, Just stared at something afar, The support we gave him was no use, He was broken inside from all the abuse.

I’d leave for a few hours and then return, To find him sitting there still having a burn.

His health deteriorated more and more, He became scared to answer the door.

I begged for his family to come and attend, To visit the damaged person and help him to mend.

We sat there together him and I, He was no longer enjoying the high.

The beautiful smile he had was gone, He’d become totally withdrawn.

Ice took him from us to a place far away, But still I think of him every day.

He haunts my dreams and I see the light, I am so thankful to have won that same ice fight.

A beary good time for all

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH CHILDREN at Rangebank Preschool in Cranbourne got to share a picnic with their oldest, cuddliest and fluffiest friends.

It was their teddy bears picnic and after hunting down their bears to the ‘Bear Hunt’ song, the kitchen was a flour flurry with finishing touches put on their teddy bear biscuits.

Barbara Ryan-Perkins from the preschool said all her students loved icing and decorating their treats and fairy bread.

“They all took part in teddythemed activities and building bears with play dough,” she said.

Working for good Social Enterprise

By KATHRYN BERMINGHAM DESERVING community organisations have been recognised with nominations in the social enterprise category of the Casey Cardinia business awards.

Casey North Community and Information Support Service provides services and programs to many within the City of Casey, working tirelessly to support those in need of assistance.

Its hugely successful programs, including ‘Stay On Track’ and ‘Keeping It Together’, utilise the expertise of professional workers and trained volunteers who provide assistance on several interconnecting welfare issues, from financial counselling to family breakdowns - a particularly pressing issue in the area.

The Cranbourne Information and Support Service provides the community with similar essential services and programs, including crisis support, counselling, case management, advocacy, education assistance, tax help and a no-interest loan scheme.

As well as its own programs, CISS also offers a range of services hosted by external providers on-site, such as

housing support, sexual assault counselling, a child support program and anger management counselling.

Serving the community for over three decades, the organisation credits much of its success to a tireless team of paid workers and volunteers.

Leanna Petrides has been manager of Cranbourne CISS for 17 years, and says she finds the work to be extrememly rewarding.

“I’ve never felt in the morning like I don’t want to go to work, I always feel I’m lucky to have a job I like doing and a great team,” she said.

“I’m working with volunteers that come in and aren’t getting paid and they’re doing hard work.”

In the past, the Casey North Community Information Support Service and Cranbourne Information and Support Service collaborated to tackle various issues, such as homelessness within Casey.

Waverley Industries provides a service that benefits both its happy employees and loyal customers. The not-for-profit organisation was founded in 1984 to provide employment opportunities for local adults with special needs.

Today, Waverley Industries employees over 250 disabled adults split into three divisions - packing and assembly, manufacturing and catering. It operates out of Notting Hill and Hallam.

The winner of the award will be announced at a gala dinner at Cranbourne Racing Centre on 22 October.

Casey North CISS manager Susan Magee, left, and Cranbourne CISS manager Leanne Petrides agree that homelessness in Casey is on the rise. 107462

DESIGNED FOR MODERN LIVING FROM PAGE 1.

RAWDON HILL is a leading home building company that has been located in the south east of Melbourne for the past 40 years.

It has a diversified product range with houses ranging from 12 squares to 560 plus squares starting from $135,000.

Its clients are largely people who have built with Rawdon Hill previously or know someone else who has.

Rawdon Hill has trades who have been working for the company for more than 20 years.

The company says its success is due to it maintaining control on its expansion and that it does not intend to build many more than 200 homes a year.

Aside from working exclusively in south east Melbourne, Rawdon Hill also differentiates itself with amazing inclusions and the high quality finish of its homes.

It’s just small things like three coats of paint on the walls and brick infills over windows which give its homes a quality finish.

Rawdon Hill has focused on its inclusions and making sure it is doing what the market is asking for.

They include floor coverings, cooling and LED lighting to keep those electricity bills down.

The Rawdon Hill Smart series home packages all include everything buyers need to complete their home including driveways, fencing allowance, landscaping, clotheslines and even a letter box on the outside.

There is no need for sheets on the windows as the blinds to windows are also included.

Its homes have a variety of floorplans that suit most demographics from families to investors, whether upsizing or downsizing.

The homes are designed with the modern allotment size in mind and the layout makes the most of a block of land ensuring that residents are able to view their rear yard from the main living areas.

Inquire now to discover the great value on offer.

Seeing is believing so buyers are encouraged to drop into a display this weekend and chat to one of the sales consultants who will be able to help.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

75,000 jobs on the way UNEMPLOYMENT rates are climbing but there’s good news for young people. South East Local Learning and Employment Network (SELLEN) CEO Andrew Simmons told a Migrant Youth Employment Forum at Dandenong Civic Centre on 15 September that jobs were on the way.

He said youth unemployment rates were the worst they’d been for 14 years and many entry-level jobs had disappeared.

But Mr Simmons said the Department of Employment predicted that about 45,000 jobs would be created in the south east over the next five years, with the greatest number appearing in the health care and social assistance sectors.

He said that coupled with the 30,000 jobs retirees would vacate in the next five years, there would be 75,000 job opportunities in the region.

The forum audience also received advice from Bunnings Victoria regional learning co-ordinator Darren Moulder, Target regional manager Paul Newnham, Skillinvest operations manager Paul Konig, Metalsa Australia HR manager Esperanza Sugay and Wurth Australia human capital manager Kelly Alford.

City of Greater Dandenong youth development officer Edem Eduesi served as moderator as young people

fired questions at the panellists.

They encouraged young people to use their life experience to demonstrate employability skills if they lacked work experience.

Volunteering, team sports participation, taking on responsibility at school and receiving awards all fit the bill.

Panellists urged job-seekers to research the organisation before attending a job interview, including a visit

if possible, and to demonstrate their communication, team work and leadership skills in group interviews.

The audience heard that they should ask organisations for feedback if their application has been unsuccessful and be careful about ‘cash in hand’ jobs because their tax will be unpaid and WorkCover insurance won’t cover injuries.

Ray Keefe shares advice with St Margaret's School Year 11 students.

High-tech isn’t a boys club

Hire a Hubby Rob Mackie in action. 144582

Picture: ROB CAREW

By CASEY NEILL A BERWICK businessman is encouraging teenage girls to consider a career in technology.

Successful Endeavours managing director Ray Keefe spoke to Year 11 students at St Margaret’s School in Berwick on 9 October and said the presentation was a big success.

“We even have one of the students keen to do work experience with us,” he said.

“We talked a lot about not letting other people design your life for you, but to take responsibility for it yourself and think through the issues you care about.

“We discussed the impression that the high technology industry isn’t for women, and how wrong that impression is.”

Mr Keefe said his workforce included four men and four women.

“We discussed how you could tell if something was for you and how your hobbies and things you enjoy doing are a good starting guide,” he said.

Mr Keefe left them with some of his favourite quotes, including advice Bill Gates plastered on the front door at Microsoft: “Change the world or go home.”

“If you are going to do something, do something awesome,” he said.

Student Ebony Hughes said

Handy bloke to know

By CASEY NEILL

Ray Keefe presents to St Margaret's School Year 11 students. the presentation made her consider a wider range of careers.

“His talk made me consider how I wanted to change the world and reminded me that I am capable of doing so,” she said.

“The fluid nature of his career assured me that I didn’t need to decide everything about my life now, I could do a range of things in the future.

“He also really focused on the fact that your uniqueness can be what sets you apart from the rest and while it may bring you some struggles, you will be more successful for them.”

Classmate Cherry Kohli said it was great to understand the

role of women in a male-dominated industry.

“The speaker gave us an insight into his diverse business, which helped me consider a career path which I thought was not particularly suited to girls,” she said.

Jessica Bhardwai said she found it interesting that engineering could have so many different pathways, especially for women.

“It was insightful to see the journey the presenter went through with his science and engineering degrees and how he built his own career,” she said.

ROB Mackie could be the handiest man in Cranbourne.

The Maryknoll resident won Hire a Hubby’s Victorian award for New Franchisee of the Year.

Mr Mackie bought the Cranbourne area franchise 18 months ago.

“I came out of the last 15 years working in the corporate world, managing a large corporate business with a lot of staff and a lot of headaches,” he said.

“I got sick of all the pressure and frustration.”

So he took control of his destiny, looked into starting his own business and ended up at a Hire a Hubby information night.

The Cranbourne franchise was up for sale and Mr Mackie knew the owner.

Since 1 April last year he’s been hanging pictures, fixing doorknobs, patching holes in walls, cleaning gutters, putting together furniture, repairing bathrooms, renovating kitchens and changing light globes, among other things.

“I look after all the little

jobs no one’s got time to do,” he said.

He said many clients were seniors who couldn’t climb a ladder and single mums without the tools for the job.

Mr Mackie also looks after such places as Cranbourne Shopping Centre, childcare centres, Stockdale and Leggo properties and medical centres.

“I enjoy the variety. Every day is different,” he said.

“I meet lots of new people every day.”

He’d always renovated his own properties and built furniture.

“I came into the business with a pretty good skill set,” he said.

But he also completed a Hire a Hubby training course in Sydney, learns on the job every day and calls on other hubbies for help when he needs it.

He employs two part-time workers and calls on licensed tradesmen when he needs to.

“Being a Hubby is hard work but it’s very rewarding,” he said.

Mr Mackie was “pretty shocked” to take home an

award for “just getting on and doing what I do”.

“It was nice to be recognised for the hard work that I’ve put in over the past 18 months,” he said.

He put the nod down to coming into the business with a clear plan and his volunteer work.

Mr Mackie has been a firefighter for 32 years and now volunteers at the Maryknoll brigade.

“There was a lot of good customer feedback, too,” he said.

His customers said they felt safe and comfortable to welcome him into their homes.

“It’s about treating people like you want to be treated and building repeat customers,” he said.

“It really annoys me when I read about pensioners getting ripped off by tradies.

“I treat people like I’d want someone to treat my parents.”

Mr Mackie said his next step was completing a certificate three in carpentry and applying for a limited builder’s licence.

Newspapers remain a popular medium for job hunters searching for their next role despite the wide choice of domestic and international alternatives online.

Emma data shows 1.4 million job seekers use print newspapers each month. Job seekers from certain industries are more likely to use print newspapers for job hunting. Those looking for work in public administration are 46 percent more likely to use print newspaper’s employment sections with similar results for mining (44 percent), and teachers and lecturers (27 percent) more likely to use print.

Businesses looking to find the right candidate should employ print newspapers as part of their search, or risk missing out on a large pool of potential candidates.

Always on song

By CASEY NEILL BERWICK Youth Choir will see in its 30th birthday next year with a new name.

It became the Melbourne Youth Chorale at the Berwick Youth Choir Showcase at Nossal High School in Berwick on Saturday 12 September.

Choir manager Louise Phillips said members now came from a much wider area than Berwick.

“We wanted to reflect that,” she said.

The choir is also planning an international tour.

“When you’re marketing for an overseas audience - even an interstate audience - people don’t really know where Berwick is,” Ms Phillips said.

“It helps to identify us and who we are and where we’re really from.”

She said the decision came from the whole choir community.

“We agonised over it because we have such a wonderful history,” she said.

“It’s been very much supported by the choir’s founder, Jean Heriot.”

Ms Phillips said the new name also offered the possibility of branches in different parts of Melbourne.

The non-profit association teach-

es musicianship to people aged five to 20 years.

Jean Heriot founded the choir in 1986 after travelling to Hungary to study the Kodaly Music Education method as a Churchill Fellowship recipient.

While developing the St Margaret’s School music department she formed a vision to provide all children in the community with access to high quality music education.

Ms Heriot was made Casey Citizen of the Year in 1998 and received an Order of Australia Medal in 2006 for her contribution as one of the pioneers of Kodaly Music Education in Australia.

The choir’s music reading and aural program are based on Hungarian composer and educator Zoltan Kodaly’s philosophies on music education.

He said that music was a prime necessity of life, that only the highest quality music is good enough for children, that music education should begin as early as possible, that music instruction should be part of education for everyone, and that the ear, the eye, the hand and the heart must all be trained together.

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH FOUR new art spaces in Casey are open and ready for decoration.

The City of Casey is looking for artists of all ages and experiences to apply to exhibit their works for free throughout Casey next year.

City of Casey Mayor Mick Morland encouraged any artists from Melbourne’s south-east to apply before applications close on Friday 16 October.

“The popular Civic Centre Art Space has presented exhibitions featuring artists from across the region since 1997 and that will be no different next year,” he explained.

Cr Morland said the art spaces at Cranbourne, Doveton and Endeavour Hills libraries support a variety of mediums including

digital and 3D works.

“With four exhibition spaces now opened across the municipality, there is ample opportunity for local artists to showcase their talents to the community, providing more chances for local residents to enjoy wonderful art close to home.

Painting, printmaking, photography, drawing, sculpture, ceramics, jewellery, textiles and digital art and film are all welcome.

“This is a great opportunity for artists to gain exposure and share their love of art with the community, as well potentially sell some of your pieces to interested buyers,” Cr Morland said.

For more information or to obtain an application pack visit www.casey.vic.gov.au/artspace or phone Customer Service on 9705 5200.

Business profiles

International learning RIVERCREST Christian College in Clyde North has recently been authorised by the International Baccalaureate as an official World School offering the Primary Years Programme (PYP).

In early June 2015, Dr Michelle Cafini, Head of Rivercrest, was informed that her school was successful in its application to be an official International Baccalaureate (IB) school after serving a short period of time as a Candidate School.

“This is really a momentous occasion and a fabulous achievement for Rivercrest.

“Authorisation usually takes approximately three years,” Dr Cafini said.

“The staff at Rivercrest have worked exceptionally hard to implement the program since our college opened in January 2014 and we are delighted to have been authorised in under 18 months.”

The curriculum offered at Rivercrest in the early years and primary years implements the

PYP framework that builds upon students’ prior learning and past experiences.

While the teaching of literacy and numeracy is a core component of the curriculum, there is also a strong focus on social, emotional, physical and spiritual development.

Christian world view is strongly embedded into all aspects of Rivercrest’s operation.

The curriculum aims to foster in students the ability to think critically and creatively within a framework of structured inquiry-learning.

The curriculum takes on a transdisciplinary approach, enabling students to make valid and meaningful connections between their learning and their developing worldview.

Being an International Baccalaureate (IB) school, Rivercrest’s philosophy is aligned with the IB’s mission, which is to develop students who are inquiring, knowledgeable and caring young people who help to create a better and

more peaceful world through intercultural understanding and respect.

Rivercrest Christian College was merely pasturelands a few years ago and now boasts 174 students.

The college only recently celebrated its first birthday and yet much has already been accomplished since the middle of 2013 when the first spade of dirt was turned on the site.

In 2015 Rivercrest offers classes for three and four-year-olds in the Early Learning Centre as well as classes for prep, year one and two students.

Additional year levels will be added each year.

Eventually Rivercrest will expand to offer classes from ELC right through to year 12.

Dr Cafini said: “Rivercrest is an exciting educational option for parents in the City of Casey.

“Rivercrest offers a curriculum that is grounded in 21st century thinking where all facets of

Dr Michelle Cafini enjoys cupcakes with Rivercrest students during the college's first birthday celebrations. education are connected and interlinked.

“It embraces an inquiry approach to learning within the context of a Christian worldview.

“All learning experiences are designed to be engaging, relevant, meaningful and significant.”

Rivercrest will be having an open day on Saturday 10 October from 1.30pm to 3.30pm.

Prospective families will have an opportunity to tour the facilities and meet with the Head of College and staff.

Eclectic and electric Eckersley

Spring has sprung at the circuit

SINCE its official debut at the 2013 Tamworth Country Music Festival, the Adam Eckersley Band has enjoyed a steep rise in popularity, firmly positioning itself as an Australian band to watch.

Hearing the Adam Eckersley Band (AEB) crunching through nimble rockers, fiddle-led stompers, reflective acoustic tunes and blistering country-rock, music lovers are reminded of the broad church that is known as country today.

Now this amazingly eclectic band is coming to the Hallam Hotel.

The musicianship, coupled with the gravelly emotive Eckersley vocals, makes it clear why the AEB is setting fire to the pews.

Having just won the 2015 Golden Guitar Award in January for New Artist of the Year, Eckersley also picked up a prestigious APRA award for Country Work of the Year for his hit single Give Her the World.

The AEB has also been chosen for Commercial Radio Australia’s coveted spot on the 2015 Global Artist Showcase for CMA Music Festival in Nashville in June.

It seems industry and fans alike have come together in their mutual acclaim for Eckersley whose roots are, of course, impeccable.

He writes what ZZ Top might call “beerdrinking, hell-raising” great music - learned from many years of touring both the US and Australia constantly.

Goosey: It’s not all doom and gloom

By DAVID NAGEL

Cranbourne’s champion full-forward Marc Holt was in great form against Berwick on Saturday but was starved of supply. He was disconsolate at the final siren. 144497 Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS

CRANBOURNE needs to address its mindset heading into grand finals if it’s to turn around its devastating losing streak in the biggest game of all.

That’s according to coach Simon Goosey, who had just watched the Eagles lose their fourth grand final on the trot against Berwick at Officer on Saturday.

“It’s something we definitely need to address as a group because you can’t go into grand finals thinking ‘what if we lose’,” Goosey said.

“Who knows what the impact of losing a couple of grand finals has had on each individual, but we need to embrace that discussion in order to go forward.”

Goosey said Berwick were deserving winners of the title,

but was disappointed his team didn’t stick to its structures on the weekend.

“Take nothing away from Berwick, they were terrific, but it wasn’t them that stopped us from going away from our brand of football,” he said.

“We proved during the year that our best was good enough to get there, but we went long down the lines and that’s not our style of play.”

The former champion fullforward thought his side had just the one clear winner on the day.

“Holty (Marc Holt) was the only clear winner, and that just shows the competitor he is and what it means to him,” Goosey said.

“We were beaten in the midfield, which starved Holty of opportunity and put enormous

pressure on our back six.”

Goosey said he was confident in the club’s make-up for next year.

“I think as a club we’ve come a long way and you just don’t go making changes because you lost a grand final,” he said.

“The players have been terrific at embracing the game plan and we’ve got some really good young kids coming through that we can develop from within.

Berwick probably has the best list in regards to depth, and players that have that have played at a higher level, but I’m happy with our list and we’ll get more in.”

Charges take on the challenge

Big score for The Alice

By JARROD POTTER

TAKING Casey basketball to the national stage, a group of Under 14 Cavaliers, the Challenge for the Cavaliers, will be on the national stage once again as coach Simon Philips and his charges head to Perth for the Under 14 Boys Australian Club Championships.

Phillips believed his Cavaliers had the tenacity and spirit to shock a lot of high-ranking sides at the national tournament.

“It makes me really proud that some of these boys have been playing rep basketball for three or four years and all the hard work is starting to pay off and show great rewards,” Phillips said in June.

“If teams go in overconfident against us then they’re going to get a bit of a rude shock and I think we can pinch a couple of wins where other people think we shouldn’t get them.

“Our trademarks are speed, aggression defensively and our shooting - probably perimeter shooting as we’ve got some great outside shooters.”

Phillips’s Cavaliers had their first national tournament earlier this year as one of

COURTING the support of the local sporting community, Berwick College basketball academy trio Tamsyn Pentland, Jordan Acker and Jaz Shelley have been busy this year both on-and-off the court.

The academy students appealed to the basketball community to donate shoes for a school project and the response has been outstanding.

The trio acquired 45 pairs of basketball sneakers to send to the Northern Territory and help remote Aboriginal communities get properly equipped to play the great American export sport.

Pentland said the donation would be a great help to the remote communities in the Northern Territory as many players have never had access to a pair of basketball shoes before.

“At the start of the year our science teacher gave us a project and we had to base it around giving back to the community so, all sharing a passion in basketball, we decided to raise some basketball shoes,” Pentland said.

“About January I travelled around Australia and we visited some Aboriginal communities and realised they didn’t wear

“I spoke to Jaz and Jordan and we came up with that idea.”

All 45 pairs will be shipped north later this year to help encourage some lucky Territorians to persist with their basketball.

“We didn’t think we would get as many shoes as we got we were pretty happy with the amount of support we received, though,” Pentland said.

Berwick College basketball academy coach Chris Pentland said it was great to see the students help promote the growth of the game.

“It was fantastic - the shoes are pretty amazing, too. Most of them are $200 pairs of shoes and nearly brand new, most of them,” Pentland said.

“I think the people we give them to up in Alice Springs will be pretty excited, I’d say.”

Stingrays’ season over

By JARROD POTTER TAC CUP - PRELIMINARY FINAL REVIEW TURNOVERS and lacklustre tackling pressure put a premature end to Dandenong’s 2015 TAC Cup campaign.

Dandenong found out the hard way how the younger, quicker Eastern Ranges line-up could brush aside the Stingrays’ experience when put into the finals' spotlight.

Dandenong was well placed going into the clash - bringing national champions Brandon White and Kurt Mutimer back into the line-up - with Mitch Cox (illness) and Sam Pickess the unlucky tandem to miss out.

A first-term shootout was about as good as it got for Dandenong throughout Saturday at Princes Park with Mutimer and unlikely forward target - an All Australian full back - Kieran Collins helping push the Rays ahead.

Lachie Batten led from the front through the midfield while the partly rearranged Dandenong defence - anchored by Jacob Weitering, Daniel Capiron and Brandon White - also held strong in the trenches.

The Stingrays kept playing musical positions throughout the day - putting Collins at both ends, Capiron and White onto the wing and eventually Weitering up forward to try and manufacture something of note.

The run and carry was strong for the Rays all afternoon, but no one seemed to spot up the next kick in the line, instead handing it back to the Ranges time-and-time again.

With a fleet of 16 and 17-year-olds taking it to their oppositional elders and then some, Eastern had control over the procession through the second and third terms towards the final fight of the TAC Cup season.

The only reason Dandenong had any chance entering the final term was Eastern’s failure to kick accurately.

It could’ve been all over early if Ranges had capitalised on the rampaging forward spree it cre-

But the Eastern force wasn’t the only side squandering chances, as Dandenong went missing in the “premiership quarter” - going goalless.

It all but sealed the Stingrays’ fate in 2015 and despite some fourth quarter heroics, it was too little too late to resurrect the flagging Dandenong chance.

The Stingrays rolled the dice in the last term to try and reel in the 31-point deficit - switching likely top draft pick Jacob Weitering (two goals) to full forward. Weitering finished up his elite junior journey with two goals in a minute to give Dandenong one last glimmer of hope.

But Eastern fired off the nail-in-the-coffin to take the first spot in the TAC Cup finale.

“I think at the start our inability to use the ball the way we have all year,” Dandenong coach Craig Black said.

“We turned the ball over early then we were

chasing from the start, so it was pretty tough from there on.

“When we had the ball we had opportunities to go forward, but then when we turned it over they just moved the ball really quickly and was unlike us as we usually start the games pretty well.

“The third quarter I thought we had a crack early, but couldn’t kick a goal and they go down and kick one and took the momentum.

“Then in the fourth, we kick a couple of early goals and gain some momentum, but they were a good young team and took it up to us and had the better of us today which was disappointing.”

Black highlighted the efforts of defender Brandon White - earning the thumbs up for his early role negating TAC Cup leading goalkicker Blake Hardwick - as well as Liam McKay, Weitering and Jake Di Pasquale. Looking back on what could have been proved tough in the moments after the loss, but Black thought the side had the potential to make a great impact on senior football throughout the country in years to come.

“At the moment we’re pretty disappointed because when you think you have a good team that had a chance of going all the way and not making it is disappointing, but hopefully in the next few years we can read up about these names playing AFL or even VFL footy,” Black said.

“They’re a really good bunch of kids and I hope this spurs them on to get a bit of momentum in their careers when they look back at it.”

Despite the trying day and the bruising disappointment setting in, Dandenong’s final words on field for season 2015 were fittingly upbeat, uttered to the entire playing group by one of the

club’s champions over the last three seasons former skipper and hopeful AFL draftee Daniel Capiron.

“We’ll get through this together ... we’re best mates and brothers.”

Eastern was well led up forward by resourceful tandem Callum Brown and Jaidyn Stephenson - who got off the chain to boot three apiece and lead the Ranges into the grand final - while Bryce Batty, Dylan Clarke and Aaron Cotte proved a handful. Eastern will face Oakleigh in a surprisingly All-Metro showdown on Sunday morning from 11.05am at Etihad Stadium.

Eagles miss out - again

By DAVID NAGEL SO close, but yet so far away.

It’s a continuing theme for the Cranbourne Football Club after another haunting grand final performance, this time going down to Berwick by 30-points in the first ever South East Football Netball League decider at Officer on Saturday.

The Eagles have now made the last five grand finals, but have lost the last four after the sweet taste of premiership success in 2011.

And this one will probably sting most, the Eagles finishing the season on top of the ladder and taking a 12-game winning streak into the biggest game of all.

Four grand final losses in a row - the impact of that statement alone will be a massive hurdle for the Eagles to overcome as they look to regroup for next season.

It’s back to the drawing board!

Meanwhile Berwick will celebrate its first premiership success in 16 years, and the greatest day in its history, after completing a clean-sweep of all four grades on offer.

The most impressive thing about this victory was the courage that it took for Berwick to take Cranbourne’s best shot, a devastating seven-goal burst in just 20 minutes in the second quarter, and then stand tall and deliver a knock-out blow of its own.

“That’s the difference between the group we’ve got now and the groups we’ve had in the past I suppose,” said Berwick coach Rhys Nisbet.

“I have a lot of faith in them and you know they’re never going to wave the white flag, I haven’t seen them do it this year and today wasn’t going to be the day. In the third quarter we played some sensational footy but we combined it with some real hard stuff as well.”

This game was played in five stages.

Cranbourne dominated early before Berwick kicked six unanswered goals to skip out to a 26-point lead, five minutes into the second quarter. The Eagles, with their champion full-forward Marc Holt in full flight, then responded in style, their seven-goal onslaught leading to a 15-point lead just prior to half time.

The opening 10 minutes of the third quarter, the premiership quarter, saw the biggest and best arm-wrestle of the contest, neither side conceding an inch. But a Brody Connelly goal started the slide for Cranbourne, the Wickers kicking nine of the next 11 goals to sew up a famous victory.

Goals to Tom Brennan, Luke Nelson, Ben Kearns, and a cracker from skipper Madi Andrews at the end of the third quarter, and a quick start from Andrew Morozoff in the last, put the issue beyond doubt.

Berwick’s leg-speed was too much for Cranbourne, with Lucas Jellyman-Turner winning the best-on-ground medal for his performance on one wing, while Tom Brennan dominated possession on the other.

Brothers in arms Think famous footballing families and the name McLardy won’t spring immediately to mind, but it’s a surname that will forever be etched into the history books of the Berwick Football Club. On Saturday, at the Officer Recreational Reserve, the four McLardy boys all became premiership players -that’s unusual in itself- but the really unique factor is that it happened in four different grades of footy.

From Mathew (second from left) in the Under 18s to Daniel (right) in the 19s to Hayden (left) in the reserves, and Jake (second from right) in the seniors, the McLardy’s dominated the biggest stage that local football has to offer. 144499 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS

Berwick premiership players from left, Mick Manley, James Phillips, Michael Riseley, Andrew Morozoff, Ben Kearns, Ryan Hillard, Tom Brennan, Mitch Johnson, Paul Vanschilt, Tim Gunn, Jo West, Jayden Goumas, Michael Harold, Luke Sheppard, Ash Smith, Luke Nelson, Lucas Jellyman-Turner and Jake McLardy. Hidden are Madi Andrews, Jayden Joyce, Michael Johnson and Brody Connelly. 144499 Andrews and his co-captain Michael Harold were terrific at the coal-face for the Wickers, while Kearns kicked four, including a laser-like bullet from the boundary line at the start of the second quarter.

Ash Smith, Michael Johnson and Michael Riseley, who spoiled magnificently, made it a great day for Berwick’s 2015 recruits.

This was another sort tale for Cranbourne.

Holt was ready to deliver an absolute masterclass in forward play, but his midfield let him down, with 23 inside 50s to just five in the third quarter giving a glimpse of the Wickers’ dominance.

Holt was simply starved of opportunity, while at the opposite end of the ground Berwick youngster Brody Connelly enjoyed an embarrassment of riches when it came to supply.

Let’s not be too harsh on the Eagles, they had a great season, but some players are now repeat offenders at not performing on the big stage. Holt performs as the lead man, there’s no doubt about that, but back-up singers like Michael Theodoridis, Tim Smith, Ryan Jones and Curtis Barker couldn’t clear their throats on the weekend.

Cranbourne players make their final preparations for Saturday’s SEFNL grand final against Berwick. 144497 Andrews summed up his sides’ premiership winning performance.

“It was huge effort, a huge effort,” he said.

“When they did kick seven in a row they were right on top of us, we weren’t missing easy opportunities or anything, they were right on top, so to come back from that shows signs of a really good team.”

A great team Madi ... a great team!

Magpies’ cup runneth over

By DAVID NAGEL SOUTH EAST FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE GRAND FINAL REVIEW - A Grade NARRE Warren finally has an A Grade premiership cup to call its own, to love and to cherish, after the most brilliant of performances against Hampton Park in Saturday’s grand final at Officer.

The Magpies took an already amazing level of netball this season to astronomical new heights, dismantling the Redbacks 59-34 in front of a bumper crowd at Starling Road.

It was a performance that left co-coach, and centre, Jade Heinrich almost speechless.

“It’s hard to describe in words, to work so hard and then to play our best game of the season on the biggest day of the year is extremely satisfying,” Jade said.

“Greg (Jade’s co-coach and husband) and I couldn’t be happier; I still can’t believe it to be honest.”

Jade almost didn’t make it onto the court, reinjuring her calf at training on Thursday night and spending Friday in a hyperbaric chamber.

“I was little overwhelmed at the finish, because I put myself under so much pressure to play, it all sort of caught up with me in the end.”

The Magpies started brilliantly, and got better, extending a five-goal margin at quarter time to eight at the main break.

But that was just the forerunner to a brilliant second-half of netball where they outscored the Redbacks 34 to 17.

“We lost to Hampton Park the last time we met but it was a good loss to have and that was the turning point for us,” Jade said.

Above: Unbridled joy for Narre Warren defenders Kara Hargave (left) and Tracey Dell as they celebrate their premiership win over Hampton Park with coach Greg Heinrich. 144499 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Right: Narre Warren captain Leigh Taylor (left) and co-coach Jade Heinrich walk arm in arm to receive their premiership medals. 144499 Tayla Shannon was unstoppable for Narre Warren, winning the best-on-court medal in the club’s first ever A Grade premiership on Saturday. 144498 “We just didn’t perform that day, but the girls believed in the game plan and we delivered when it mattered.”

Tracey Dell and Kara Hargrave were superb in defence, Erin Clark and Leigh Taylor combined wonderfully well through the midcourt, while Elly Stewart and best-on-court medallist Tayla Shannon were unstoppable under the ring.

The Magpies found themselves in a luxurious

position in the final quarter; with a big enough lead to give Chloe Phillips, Courtney Phelps and Demi Brettoner some precious court time.

“I really admire those three girls,” Jade said.

“They were just so happy and excited to get their chance and they were fantastic in those last 10 minutes of play.”

Jade said the joy that the premiership had delivered to the club wasn’t lost on either her or Greg.

“I’ve been at a few clubs, but Narre Warren is a special place,” she said.

“The footballers were excited for us, the committee, it just makes Greg and I so happy to see so many people join in the celebrations.”

For Erin Clark, Leigh Taylor and Tracey Dell, this premiership means a lot after losing to Pakenham in 2013.

For Hampton Park, gun goal-shooter Emma Ryde shot 30 of her sides’ 34 goals, while Kim Coulson, Sara Drain and Cathy Leeves can hold their heads high.

But the Magpies have a cup ... one they will love and cherish!

Beaconsfield victorious over Doveton

By DAVID NAGEL SOUTH EAST FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE REVIEW - Lower Grades B GRADE BEACONSFIELD became the most successful club on grand final day, winning its fourth premiership for the day with a 47-29 victory over Doveton.

League best and fairest winners Natalie Montanari and Breanne Miller battled bravely for the Doves while Abbey Dean was also handy.

C GRADE THE best grand final of the day saw Beaconsfield come from the clouds to defeat Narre Warren 3028 in an absolute thriller on court one.

The Eagles looked gone in the third quarter, but unleashed something special to take home the prize.

Molly Murnane was named best-on-court after a calm and composed display of goal-shooting in the dying stages, while her Eagles’ team-mates Danielle Adrien and Elyce Boulter also lifted under pressure.

Britti Donaldson was all class through the midcourt for the Magpies, while Rebekah Booth tried her best to quell the Eagles’ last-half onslaught.

D GRADE A BRILLIANT third-quarter surge has steered Beaconsfield to the D Grade flag, winning 34-27 against Cranbourne.

The Eagles led by just two at half time but an 11-goal to six third term sealed the premiership for former champion goal-kicker Steve Tippett and his girls.

Beacy’s goal-scoring combination of Madison Kellett and Bridget Arthurson was consistent for four quarters, while Shelley Ziesler and Kahrynn Lloyd were terrific through the midcourt and Zoe Mason unbeatable in defence.

Cranbourne goal-keeper Brodie Davenport won best-on-court honours while Kristy Whitnell and Stephanie Wright never stopped trying until the final whistle.

17 AND UNDER PAKENHAM’S one and only football or netball premiership came from its White Division side which defeated Beaconsfield 38-15.

The Lions got off to a roaring start, with Lauren Briggs scoring eight of her 28 goals for the match in the opening quarter. The Lions led by seven at quarter time, were restricted by the Eagles in the second term, before exploding away

with a 21 to six second half.

Renae Joiner was named best on court after a great game in the centre, while Hayley Melsen and Keely Wright combined brilliantly at the defensive end. Maddison Wrench, Tianah Talbot and Briana Pratt were great defenders for Beacy.

Narre Warren is the champion side in Red Division after holding out a brave ROC challenge by nine goals on Saturday.

Gabrielle Dwyer was dynamic for the Magpies, scoring 36 of their 43 goals, but it was Sophie Gambetta who stole the spotlight by winning the best-on-court award for her terrific defensive display.

Madison Nation and Kealeigh Brown were also good for the winners, while Ashleigh Barnett, Alexandria Kilpatrick and Chloey Dodds were fantastic performers for the Roos.

15 AND UNDER NARRE Warren has completed a great season in Red Division, winning the grand final by four goals after a 29-25 triumph over Doveton.

Best on court Kacey Maund controlled things from the middle for the Magpies, who won the first three quarters before surviving a late surge from the Doves.

Caitlyn Pritchard, Tamika Cairns and Taylah Boatwood shared the scoring duties for the Magpies, while Caitlin Egan, Alexandra Stephenson and Olivia Catrucco were terrific defenders all day. Hayley Stewart and the Pupuke bookends, Emily (GS) and Jamana (GK), were great players for the Doves.

Beaconsfield overcame a slow start to win the Red Division title in comfortable fashion against Pakenham.

The Lions led by a goal at quarter time, but the Eagles then went crazy eventually winning 36-19.

Best on court Emily Wrench was unstoppable for the Eagles; scoring 31 times, while star-centre Cailie Goodes was also at the top of her game.

Sarah Jones, Rachel McLeod, Telomi Paniora and Ebony Mateariki never once stopped trying for the Lions.

13 AND UNDER SATURDAY’S hosts, the ROC Netball Club, claimed both of the early premierships up for grabs.

Narre Warren’s Caitlin Stephens (left) and ROC’s Samantha Neil refused to take a backward step during Saturday’s 17 and Under Red grand final at Officer. 144488 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS In the White Division, the Kangaroos caused a huge surprise, defeating the previously unbeaten Beaconsfield by five goals, 30-25.

Goal-shooter Anastacia Toeleiu was fantastic for the winners, scoring 27 goals, while midcourters Karly Meinecke and Darci Kneebone, and defenders Georgia Murphy and Christopher Luxford also played big parts in the victory.

Beaconsfield’s league best and fairest winner Tahlia lane tried her best, as did defender Mikayla Halstead, who was awarded the best-on-court medal for her great effort in the defensive ring.

In Red Division ROC had to overcome a brave Doveton, eventually winning 26-22 after a great battle.

Scores were locked at 19 each at three-quarter time, but Kangaroos’ goal-attack Grace George kept her composure to shoot five last-quarter goals to get the Kangas across the line.

Grace was named best on court, while Kiaya and Maddison Chamberlain, and Brydie Engellenner were next best.

Helen-Margaret Ashin, Megan Hunt and Adele Batten were fantastic for the Doves.

Testament to Hyundai style

By DEREK OGDEN THE Hyundai Genesis: it’s hard to know where to start.

The luxury sedan from South Korea was benchmarked against BMW, Mercedes-Benz, Audi, Lexus and Jaguar.

In Australia it even competes with top end Australian models from Holden and Ford, as well as the Chrysler 300 from the US. Hyundai’s flagship delivers eye-watering high levels of automotive technology and refinement at astonishingly low prices.

The first-generation left-hand-drive only BH Genesis set the standard with rave reviews and major awards, including the 2009 North American Car of the Year, now the all-new second-generation DH model eclipses this in many ways.

The unfortunately tagged ‘DH’ underwent high-speed and durability testing on the famed Nordschleife Nurburgring in Germany and at Yeongam Circuit, Korea.

It also did some extreme hot-weather testing in Death Valley in the USA and cold-weather testing on Sweden’s Argeplog Lake.

That wasn’t the end, our local engineers oversaw final durability testing in eastern and central Australia.

The basic Genesis is bursting at the seams with innovative high-tech kit, some of which is an expensive addition in European rivals, and others not at all, yet it comes to Australia market for a mere $60,000.

This can be topped up with more features from two packs, Sensory and Ultimate, for $71,000 and $82,000 respectively. Hyundai took the middle ground with our road test vehicle, the Genesis Sensory Pack.

Genesis has a one-piece hexagonal grille, HID headlights, LED indicators and daytime running lights, a sweeping line along its flanks, aerodynamic boot lid, and ‘jewelled’ LED tail-lights.

At 4990mm, the Genesis is 91mm longer than a BMW 5 Series and 43mm longer than a Holden Commodore and its width of 1890mm is 30mm wider than a 5 Series and only 8mm narrower than a Commodore.

Genesis, with its Sonata stablemate, last year earned Good Design Awards for quality design, function and aesthetics from The Chicago Athenaeum, the Museum of Architecture and Design, and The European Centre for Architecture Art Design and Urban Studies.

The wheelbase of 3010mm is not only longer than that of a BMW 5 Series but also 1mm longer than the wheelbase of a Holden Caprice and translates to a generous amount of space for occupants.

It’s a premium look all round with widespread use of soft-touch materials, timber-style trim surrounds and real aluminium detail, while doublestitched, perforated leather-appointed front seats offer 12-way adjustment for the driver.

The test vehicle’s Sensory Pack has an extendable seat-cushion for under-thigh support, bolster adjustment and four-way lumbar-support adjustability.

Attention to detail is characterised by a new dash top designed to decrease reflections in the windscreen.

stock list Model range Genesis 3.8L GDi V6 8sp automatic: $60,000 Genesis 3.8L GDi V6 8sp automatic: Sensory Pack $71,000 Genesis 3.8L GDi V6 8sp automatic: Ultimate Pack $82,000

The stylish centre console features a square clock that’s synchronised via satellite.

An impressive 9.2-inch wide-view touchscreen is centrally located on the dash.

It gives offers access to satellite navigation incorporating Here maps, Suna live traffic updates, and a comprehensive Point of Interest database.

Also included is Here MapCare where up to three years free mapping updates are provided when the vehicle is serviced at a participating Hyundai dealer.

The touchscreen also acts as a display for the Genesis around-view monitor, providing a 360-degree bird’s-eye view of the vehicle.

In amazing attention to detail, the Grammy Lexicon sound system utilises 17 speakers uses an algorithm program to the car’s interior contours and trim materials.

Genesis sedans are powered by Hyundai’s 3.8-litre V6 engine, driving the rear wheels through an in-house eight-speed automatic transmission.

The motor produces 232 kW maximum power at 6000 rpm and 397 Nm maximum torque at 5000 rpm, with 90 per cent of the latter available between 2000rpm and 6000rpm.

The Lambda II uses Gasoline Direct Injection, triangular-pattern fuel injectors, Dual Continuously Variable Valve Timing, three-stage variable induction, all-aluminium block and heads, steel timing chain and iridium-tipped spark plugs.

Hyundai Genesis was awarded the highest ever ANCAP score achieved in local crash testing.

Passive safety equipment includes nine airbags, pre-tensioner seatbelts and anti-whiplash head restraints.

Active safety features are smart cruise control, autonomous emergency braking, blind-spot detection, lane change assist, lane departure warning, rear cross traffic alert and smart high beam.

There has been great attention given to incabin noise, vibration and harshness suppression with extensive use of sound-deadening measures.

On the other hand, Hyundai engineers worked to enhance agreeable sounds.

The Hyundai range is available for test drive at Berwick Hyundai, 34 Kangan Drive, Berwick.

Last Aussie Holden tweak

By EWAN KENNEDY THERE are sure to be tears when the final Australian-made Holdens roll down the production line in 2017 but there were certainly no signs of any at the weekend when Holden announced details of the final major changes to the Commodore.

Reflecting on the past and looking to the future, Holden set up a huge Commodore Gallery at its Port Melbourne HQ to announce its future plans to the media.

Examples of all 37 years of Commodore to date were on display, not just cars you see on the streets, there were also concept cars and models that were exported, particularly to the USA. Then it was time for us to move onto the reveal of the very last Commodore model, a facelift of the VF named, without a great deal of imagination, the VFII. Though it will be offered in a variety of dayto-day sedans and wagons, the big emphasis for the latest Commodore is on a heavily revised version of the much loved LS3 6.2-litre V8.

Possibly the last V8 engine ever to be offered in a Commodore as it’s likely its imported replacements will be four-cylinder turbo-petrols, and naturally aspirated and turbo-petrol V6s.

The latest LS3 will give sub-five-second time to 100 km/h, the first time a Commodore has squeezed into the four-second bracket.

This requires 304 kW of power and a very useful 570 Nm of torque so it will be a stunner on the road.

In true marketing fashion, Holden is holding back on details of the LS3 at this stage, teasing us by only talking about the sounds it produces.

Holden tells us its engineers have developed a bi-modal exhaust system with what’s called a Baillie Tip, a mechanical sound enhancer.

This aural package will be installed in the sports variants, the SS, SSV and SSV Redline.

We will have to wait until we drive the VFII at its launch in Adelaide in the first week of October for our ears to experience what the guys and gals

Final Holden Commodore revealed; big push on stunning LS3 V8 engine. in GM-Holden’s exhaust department have given us.

A mild facelift and tail tuck is part of the VFII package.

The emphasis on the LS3 sees it getting functional bonnet vents and fascia duct.

These are certainly not just for show, being developed by Holden engineers with support from Melbourne’s Monash University wind tunnel.

The heavily revised V8 is backed up by upgraded FE3 rear sports suspension said to increase ride comfort while retaining sharp handling.

The top-of-the-line SSV Redline gets Brembo brakes front and rear which sounds like the makings of a weekend track-day machine to us.

Harking back to a once glorious Commodore past, Holden’s chairman and managing director Mark Bernhard described the Commodore VFII as the culmination of nearly four decades of design, engineering and manufacturing expertise. “We made a commitment to keep this iconic car exciting and relevant for Australian motorists and that is exactly what we have done.

This is the vehicle that our Commodore customers have been asking for,� Mr Bernhard said. “Commodore VFII is powerful and refined, it will evoke emotion in its driver and exhibits all of the hallmarks Commodore has become renowned for over the years. “Holden’s design, engineering and manufacturing teams have produced the best Commodore

ever - a vehicle that truly lives up to its reputation and one that the entire company is incredibly proud of. “This is the reason Holden is committed to ensuring we will continue to have engineering and design input into Commodore, and every other Holden vehicle in our range, for generations to come.�
