Underworld link handgun, shotgun shells, orangetip ammunition and disassembled pen pistols in Glad bags. Police also allegedly seized items and substances used to make drugs, more than a dozen number plates, $1950 cash, mobile phones, drivers licences under different names, six bags of “white crystal substance”, and a BMW tin and documents. At the time, Lodin had admitted to being a frequent ice user, Sen Const Harris said. Defence lawyer Chris Edwards said Lodin had been assessed as suitable for CREDIT bail and would be in danger from inmates if he remained in custody. A $2000 surety was offered by one of Lodin’s relatives. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Lodin failed to show cause for bail because he was an unacceptable risk of reoffending and endangering the public, despite his family’s support. He noted Lodin was sitting on a 199-day suspended jail term and had “significant” prior convictions for dangerous driving, threats to kill, assault, affray, armed robbery and driving while suspended and disqualified. In recent months, the applicant had failed to appear at court for ice trafficking, being a prohibited person possessing a firearm, assaulting a Sheriff’s officer, reckless conduct endangering serious injury and driving at dangerous speeds. Mr Vandersteen said: “The risks you pose cannot be alleviated by any conditions of bail.”

He had also been badly beaten during a previous stint in prison, losing the sight in his left eye, the court was told. Lodin also had close links to three “main targets” and “dangerous offenders” within the Apex and YCW gangs, the court was told. The gangs’ alleged crimes included armed robberies, car jackings, driving stolen vehicles at high speed as well as a culpable driving charge levelled at a 15-year-old boy. “These people he’s associating with pose extreme danger to himself and his family,” Sen Const Harris said. “I can’t express how grave my concerns are.” Lodin faced charges of theft of a boat, a Navarra ute and petrol from Seaford, aggravated burglary and car theft from a Langwarrin home on 21 July, and stealing a $40,000 Audi from a Malvern East home on 19 October. The Langwarrin victim identified Lodin as one of three male burglars who she found in her garage. The terrified victim ran from the intruders and later found that two motorbikes, power tools and motorbike equipment to the value of nearly $5000 had been taken. Lodin was also seen travelling in the stolen Audi in November, the court was told. The car was later allegedly found during a police search warrant at his home, along with an Audi car key, Audi documents, a Winchester Hornet .22 firearm with 18 rounds, an imitation

A NARRE Warren South man stands accused of being a conduit between juvenile car thieves in Melbourne’s south-east and an outlaw motorcycle gang. Ahmed Farhad Lodin, 30, was refused bail on 7 December after a court heard he had assisted in the sale of high-end vehicles stolen by Apex and Young Crucified Warriors (YCW) street gangs this year. Lodin had admitted to arranging the exchange of stolen vehicles for cash and methamphetamine, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court was told. Detective Senior Constable Mick Harris of Casey CIU told the court it was believed the young offenders were introduced to buyers from the Mongols outlaw motorcycle gang. “We have concerns with these young offenders, some who have committed violent armed robberies, being out there high on meth. “We have worked incredibly hard to get these youths in custody. “It’s an ongoing investigation that we’re working very hard - for the sake of the community - to get on top of.” The court was told that Lodin was arrested at his home on 11 November and taken to Dandenong Hospital due to wounds allegedly inflicted by Hells Angels OMCG members over a drug debt. According to a police summary, Lodin was suffering stab and burn injuries to his legs and had a cut to the bridge of his nose.

Housemate attacked over phone hack claim By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A EUMEMMERRING man clawed his housemate’s eyes as he accused him of hacking his mobile phone, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court heard. Stephen Simpson pleaded guilty to assaulting his then co-tenant of two years as the victim watched TV at their Berwick home late one Sunday night in July. The victim was then pulled by the hair, placed in a headlock and accused by Simp-

son of “trying to destroy my life”. Simpson then pulled at the victim’s eyes with his fingers until the victim agreed that he did hack the accused’s phone. The housemate was treated for sore, bruised and blood-shot eyes at Casey Hospital, where he rang police. Simpson was visited by police and taken to hospital for a psychiatric assessment while an intervention order was created to protect his housemate.

After his arrest two months later, Simpson gave a largely no-comment police interview and denied the incident. Simpson’s lawyer told the court the accused was in a “good place” since being placed on a community treatment order. “If he fails to comply with the requirements of the treatment order, he’ll have to deal with the consequences of that.” Magistrate Julie O’Donnell said a medical report showed the accused had an “in-

credible lack of insight” and his offending was directly related to his mental illness. In sentencing, she took into account that Simpson was already on a compulsory order. “Given the paranoia behind this offending and the lack of engagement with the treatment team, I doubt if he could do a corrections order.” Simpson was convicted and fined $1500.

Stage set for festive play SOME of Casey’s brightest young stars are taking to the stage this Christmas. The Narre Warren Baptist Church is once again putting on its annual Christmas performance, following on from last year’s successful production of Tom’s Diner. This year’s Christmas show will feature university students Josh Cameron and Gabrielle Dalton, who will play lead roles. “You will be thoroughly entertained by the hilarious script, talented acting, fantastic sets, lively dance, big musical numbers, a few of your favourite carols and a powerful Christmas message,” Senior Pastor Lee Kohler said. The show will run from 10 to 13 December, and for more information contact 9796 8737, Gabrielle Dalton, Lachlan Parkinson, Evangeline Kohler and Madison Scully will perform in the Narre Warren Baptist Church's Picture: ROB CAREW upcoming Christmas show. 148094 or visit www.nwbc.net.au.

A bad call for sellers CASEY police are warning people to keep vigilant after a spate of phone thefts in the area involving the online sales website Gumtree. It’s understood the offenders call people who are selling their phones on Gumtree, organise to meet up with them for the transaction, and then flee with the owner’s phone. In some cases the offenders are even using violence to steal the phones, Detective Senior Sergeant Rod Maroney said. “It’s an increasing trend that we’re seeing and it can escalate into violence,” he said. Earlier this year Star News reported on an incident in which a 42-year-old man was robbed when he was lured to an address in Narre Warren South after using Gumtree. Gumtree advises online shoppers to have someone with them if they are visiting’s someone’s house for a transaction, or have someone with them if a customer is coming to their house, to always inspect the item before agreeing to a sale, and to never send or wire money to anyone they don’t know. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential crime report at www. crimestoppersvic.com. au

Solo group cheered up

POLICE are investigating a suspicious grass fire lit in a vacant block in Hampton Park earlier this month. A man was driving past the block on the corner of Pound and Shrives roads, about 3pm on Thursday 3 December, when he noticed the blaze and pulled over to put it out. Police and CFA member soon arrived to help extinguish the fire. The incident is being treated as suspicious. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD CHRISTMAS time can be more difficult for some families than others. With this in mind the Hope Centre, run out of the Winepress Church in Intrepid Street, Berwick, held the annual Christmas Lunch for its Solo Parents Support Group last Saturday. The lunch gives single parents in the local community the opportunity to meet with others in similar situations, while also bringing along their children. Berwick single mum Jo Johnson, who only joined the group recently, said it could be difficult for single parents to get out and about and the group “gives them a chance to socialise while their kids are cared for”. “I think it’s really important to have others we can connect with, and you realise you’re not on your own,” Jo said. “It helps to have other people we can talk to and share ideas with, because single parents can feel really isolated at times and quite left out of things.” The solo parents group meets once a month for a “coffee and a chat”, Jo said. “I heard one lady saying to someone else that she feels really comfortable there, it’s a non-judgemental atmosphere ... ” she said. “Everyone accepts her and it’s a very loving environment.” Star News photographer STEWART CHAMBERS visited the solo parents’ lunch on Saturday to take some photos.

A MAN was attacked by six men wielding machetes and baseball bats as he walked home through Endeavour Hills. The man was walking along Daniel Solander Drive about 9.30pm on Sunday 6 December when the group of men threatened the victim and demanded his wallet and phone.

Drug offences up By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE number of drug offences committed by men and women in Casey has sharply risen last year, according to data released by the Crime Statistics Agency (CSA) last month. The number of drug use and possession incidents in Casey for men rose by 111 and women 48. From July 2014 to June 2015, the number of drug offences for men rose to 507 from 396 a year earlier.

For women, in the same period, the number rose to 130 from 82 the previous year. The rise for men comes as the number fell to 396, in the period July 2013 to June 2014, compared to 411 from July 2012 to June 2013. Detective Senior Sergeant Rod Maroney, from Casey CIU, said the increase this year could partly be attributed to a rise in detection rates. “Our drug crew is having a good run and drawing on lots of good in-

formation,” Det Sen Sgt Maroney said. “It’s positive in the fact we’re detecting more offences, getting to the heart of it, and getting to major dealers and the people manufacturing drugs. “But it’s also concerning that there’s more and more use and young people becoming vulnerable to it.” Asked about the overrepresentation in the data of men compared to

women, Det Sen Sgt Maroney said the gender disparity was common. “That would be the same across every crime scene we have,” he said. “Whether it be burglaries, theft ... males always dominate. “There’s no rhyme or reason, they’re just more at the forefront of it. “And when you look at manufacturing and high level dealing, it’s always dominated by males.”

Work on early stages of Monash widening By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

Premier Daniel Andrews joined Narre Warren South MP Judith Graley and Roads Minister Luke Donnellan last month to announce plans to widen the Monash Freeway. Roads Minister Luke Donnellan said up to Christmas the testing would be focussed between the EastLink interchange and the South Gippsland Freeway. He said traffic flow was not expected to be affected.

“We’re not wasting a day to get this project done. It will cut travel times, improve safety and remove frustrating bottlenecks on the Monash,” he said. “This will mean a more reliable trip to 200,000 drivers a day, with

TESTING on the Monash Freeway has already started ahead of the road being widened in a $400 million upgrade announced last month. Geotechnical works on the road’s pavement started on Sunday night (6 December) and are scheduled to continue into next year. Surveying is also taking place on and off the shoulder of the road at various locations. Under a proposal from the Andrews Government the freeway will be widened to five lanes running each way between EastLink and the South Gippsland Highway, and three lanes each way further out to Clyde Road. The project is expected to go to tender in mid-2016, with construction slated to begin in 2017, and expected to be finished the following year. But testing on the major road is already underway and is expected to continue until late February, stretching from Dandenong North to Berwick.

less time stuck in traffic. “If you’re driving late at night on the Monash please observe the roadworks speed limits, watch out for workers and take extra care.” In October, it was reported that the Turnbull Government agreed to unlock the $1.5 billion East West Link money allocated to the State Government, provided it would be used on projects like the Monash Freeway. After the upgrade announcement La Trobe MP Jason Wood questioned why construction wouldn’t start until 2017, claiming the Andrews Government could already access the $1.5 billion in Federal funding. “The $1.5 billion is already with the State Labor Government, this is totally unacceptable to start work in 2017, I have been told via sources that work could start early next year, especially the traffic management,” he said. “There is $1.5 billion of Federal funding which, in part, will go towards the project, so only State Labor is holding back with funding.”

Cops know their crowd THE police certainly know their audience. When speaking to a police spokesperson about a random weapons search held at Dandenong train station last Friday, a Star News reporter was asked to hold off reporting on it for a few hours so as not to give too many people a heads-up. Police had already broadcast about the weapons search on ABC radio - but the spokesperson said that was okay because those likely to be caught in the search wouldn’t be likely to be listening to the ABC.

Driven crazy SEVEN years driving with an expired Jordanian international licence has finally caught up with a woman in her fifties. The woman became trapped in a Dandenong Plaza roundabout after she entered it in the wrong direction. She then reversed at speed about 15 metres into a vehicle behind her, then fled the scene in her car without exchanging details. “There were significant language barriers,” the woman’s lawyer explained to a court. “On what lawful basis did she believe she was entitled to drive the vehicle?” the judge asked the lawyer. He placed the woman on a 12-month good behaviour bond, on condition she wrote an apology letter to the victim and donated $250 to the court’s charitable fund. She was banned from applying for a valid driver’s licence for a month.

Apex teen bailed to avoid other members in detention

Robbery key

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

AN ALLEGED Apex Gang member has been granted bail partly to keep him away from ringleaders who had recently been remanded in juvenile detention. At a children’s court hearing on 7 December, the teenage boy faced burglary charges but complained of being forcibly arrested at school over the alleged January break-in and of being doused with capsicum spray. He was allegedly found in possession of cannabis during his arrest. The applicant said he had been “keeping out of trouble” in recent times to be a good role-model for younger siblings. “If he is in the Apex group, all the leaders are in custody so that might not be a good place for him to be,” the magistrate said.

“Their behaviour has been so high-end in the past two-to-three months.” The street gang’s members had been allegedly involved in armed robberies, car jackings and speeding in stolen cars in recent months. The judge granted bail due to the applicant’s age, engagement with Youth Justice services and to prevent him being in contact with the street gang’s leaders. “Those offenders are on a different radar than you at the moment,” the judge said. “You know the boys I’m talking about and you know the trouble they’re in. “They’re putting members of the community at risk, they’re not being committed to their family and have absolutely zero future.”

ANOTHER car has been stolen in Casey after thieves broke into a Doveton house on the weekend and took the keys. The silver Mazda CX7 was stolen from outside the Rebecca Street home about 2.25am on Saturday 5 December after the thieves broke in through a rear sliding door and stole the car keys from the kitchen while the occupants were sleeping. The victims awoke as the car sped off, allegedly doing a burn-out in the process. The theft comes despite Detective Senior Sergeant Rodney Moroney, of Casey CIU, telling Star News last week that locking up eight or nine “main offenders” had

slowed down car thefts. He said the rate of car thefts had fallen from roughly three a day to now one a week. “This is our one a week,” he said of the Doveton theft. Last week, Star News reported how police have arrested several young members of a so-called 'Apex Gang’, who have broken into homes to steal car keys and vehicles in Melbourne’s south-east in recent weeks. But Det Sen Sgt Moroney said the crime spate extended wider than just the Apex Gang members, who were typically aged between 15-25. Inspector Bruce Kitchen, regional commander of Greater

Dandenong police, said there was a trend across metropolitan Melbourne of this type of crime. Over the past month, up to 15 young people had been charged in Greater Dandenong, Casey and Frankston, he said. “It’s a broader spectrum than just this Apex Gang. It involves a wide age group. It’s not one particular culture.” Some of the stolen cars were being used to commit armed robberies, some for joy riding and also to be stripped down for parts. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Fireworks wow the crowd By LACHLAN MOORHEAD FOR most of the 1000-strong crowd the highlight of the Endeavour Hills Christmas Carols is the fireworks show which ends the event. But that’s not to say all the singing and entertainment that occurs beforehand is taken for granted. The annual Endeavour Hills Community Carols will again take place this month on Saturday 12 December at the South Eastern Christian Centre on Gleneagles Drive.

Organiser Amanda said there would be a lot of entertainment to choose from on the night including the plethora of fan-favourite carols, hip hop dancing and enjoyable music from the Casey Concert Band. “It’s great to be able to do this for the community and celebrate Christmas for the community and welcome everyone here,” Amanda said. “We have the opportunity for people to celebrate and we definitely get a lot of locals down.”

31

And when it comes to the fireworks at the end of the show - set off from nearby Barry Simon Reserve - Amanda said there was nothing better than seeing the wonder on everyone’s face. “They love it,” Amanda said. “You can hear lots of gasping and lots of ‘wows’.” For more information on the Endeavour Hills Community Carols, which will run from 5pm to 9pm on 12 December, contact the South Eastern Christian Centre on 9700 2314.

EPIC future for Fountain Gate By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE future of Fountain Gate has been solved by a group of determined Casey high schoolers. The community gathered with pride on Monday morning as the student problem solving team from Fountain Gate Secondary - EPIC - officially unveiled their Fountain Gate Entry Feature. The new icon is a symbol of identity for Fountain Gate, which is often overshadowed by its neighbouring suburbs. The entry feature was the brainchild of the Fountain Gate Secondary Future Problem Solving team, EPIC - short for Encouraging Pride In Our Community. The group began its project last year by looking at what its members felt were the major issues affecting the Fountain

Gate community. Starting with bullying, the group expanded their investigation to include an appraisal of crime in the area, including graffiti, littering and hoon driving. It soon became clear to the team that there was a need for greater pride in Fountain Gate, and the students quickly went about uncovering the history of their suburb while trying to find a way to teach others about it. The students worked strategically with community stakeholders to re-design the gardens surrounding the Robin Boyd fountain and garnered wide-ranging support from the City of Casey and local MPs. These councillors and MPs again got together on Monday as the entry feature was officially revealed, more than a year

since the EPIC team placed second in the International Future Problem Solving world championships in Iowa, America. Narre Warren South MP Judith Graley on Monday praised the EPIC team for working “tirelessly” on their project. “These outstanding students have worked tirelessly to ensure that the onceproud heart of the local community is restored to an iconic centrepiece we can all be proud of,” she said. “It has a been a great pleasure to be involved in this project and I am just so very pleased to have seen how this experience has allowed these young men and women to grow and achieve so much. “They should be quite rightly proud of their efforts, and I have no doubt that the new fountain and surrounding garden will be loved by all.”

Shrouded in secrecy CASEY council has been slammed as “hypocrites” after recent statistics revealed that more than a third of its decisions are made in secrecy. Data released on the new Know Your Council website found that the City of Casey makes more decisions in council chamber meetings that are closed to the public than any other municipality in the south-east region. The website uncovered that the state-wide average number of council decisions made at closed meetings, known as ‘in-camera’, was 12.20 per cent in the 2014-2015 year. However the City of Casey made 37 per cent of its decisions behind closed doors, which is a stark contrast to neighbouring Cardinia shire which made just one decision in a closed meeting during the period. Casey Residents and Ratepayers Association (CRRA) President Rex Flannery said the high number “isn’t surprising”. “They want to go out into the community by conducting door-todoor market research by hiring a company to seem more transparent but then they are shutting us out in closed meetings,” Mr Flannery said. “They’re doing it because they want to make the rates go up by 1 per cent each year because they want their capital works projects to go ahead. “They are trying to open our doors at home and closing theirs 37 per cent is not transparent, transparency is when you have nothing to hide,” he said. During the same period neighbouring Cardinia shire made only one in-camera decision making it

the most transparent council in the region. That figure has baffled the secrecy-inclined Casey Mayor Sam Aziz. “To say they’ve only made one decision in 12 months boggles me,” he said. “There must be a clerical error somewhere. “I can’t speak for them but I find it difficult to understand how that can be.” Standing by his council’s high number of closed meeting decisions, Cr Aziz said he was doing his municipality a service by making so many in private. “They are made that way in the best interest of rate payers,” he said. “You’ve got to remember, Casey is a huge infrastructure city and our current financial spending on infrastructure sits at 90 million, so there’s a lot of contractual building activity in this municipality. “Tendering decisions are best made in closed council to get the best value for money, otherwise information can be leaked into the market and give bidders an advantage.” Cr Aziz said it was not appropriate to discuss certain matters such as suicide prevention and various sensitive subjects in public. “In all seven years on council, I think the number of topics discussed at closed meetings has remained at around the same level,” he said. “At the last council meeting about eight matters were brought up in closed council and all related to contractual matters.” He said topics discussed in closed meetings included the consideration of personnel matters, personal hardship of a resident, industrial matters, proposed developments, contractual

And the bomb squad was called to the Narre Warren property after explosives were allegedly found in a car. The two men were arrested by the Echo Taskforce in relation to a shooting at a restaurant in Preston just over a month ago.

On Friday 4 December the 29-year-old commander of the Comancheros Hallam chapter was arrested at a property in Fredrick Street, Dandenong, while another 24-year-old

member of the bikie gang was arrested at a property in Narre Warren on Heatherton Road. During the search of the Narre Warren property detectives found a large number of guns, and what appeared to be explosives were found in a car. The area was cordoned off and the Bomb Response Unit was called in. Police also found a small amount of what was believed to be methylamphetamine at the Dandenong property.

Inga Peulich is sueing a racial abuse complainant for defamation. and business groups in Dandenong on 27 October. He said there was a resolve among the normally staunch Liberal gathering to defend Mr Prasad in any legal action. “We are all standing against the Liberal Party and Inga. “This will have a big impact on the Liberal Party in that corridor of Dandenong, Hampton Park and Cranbourne. This is where the Indian community is so large. “Politically, she will pay a high price.� Mr Thomas, who has been involved in Indian associations for 30 years, said the conflict could have been easily solved if Ms Peulich had apologised. Past president of the Federation of Indian Associations Victoria Vasan Srinivasan, however, backed Ms Peulich. “Inga still has good standing in the community. “She’s supported FIAV over the years and is well respected by the FIAV committee members.�

Mr Prasad is awaiting a Liberal Party investigation into the incident. He said he’d also formally complained to police and the Equal Opportunity and Human Rights Commission over the incident. In a legal letter sent to Mr Prasad in July, Ms Peulich took offence at Mr Prasad’s quote in the newspaper article that she “carries the poison of racism in her�. The letter claimed the story bore the imputation that she was a “hypocrite and liar in her public stance against racism as shadow minister for multicultural affairs�. The furore has divided the Indian community, some of whom are threatening a backlash against the Liberal Party and Ms Peulich.

OPPOSITION multicultural affairs spokeswoman Inga Peulich is facing a political backlash from Indian community leaders after suing a fellow Liberal Party member for defamation. Ms Peulich has sent a defamation writ to Cranbournebased Liberal member Phillip Prasad over an article in The Australian in July in which he accused her of threatening him and deriding his Indian background during a post-state election party meeting last December. Soon after the story was published, Mr Prasad challenged Ms Peulich in the Journal to sue him if his claims were untrue. On Thursday 3 December Ms Peulich told Star News that Mr Prasad was given the opportunity to apologise and retract his claims. “This did not occur so, regrettably, I have no other options but to defend myself and the negative impact of this false allegation on my family, especially my 83-year-old mother who, along with her parents and siblings, was interned in a concentration camp. “Racism is abhorrent and (the) allegations are totally untrue. “Without a retraction and apology, I cannot let the allegations stand.� Mr Prasad has said he did not want to comment publicly. In October he told Star News: “If it’s not true, she should sue me.�

Chant breaches council protocol

Batteries Not Included?

By GEORGIA WESTGARTH A MULTI faith chant meant to unite has left its audience cold after it breached the strict protocols of a Casey council meeting. The multi-faith statement, which is read after a Christian prayer at every City of Casey council meeting, was followed by a chant sung by Casey Multifaith Network member Jamel Kaur on Tuesday 1 November. The chant, which includes messages from numerous religions, raised eyebrows on the night and saw councillor Rosalie Crestani march out of the chamber in disgust. “I left because I didn’t want to have anything to do with it. I was deeply offended,” Cr Crestani said. “I stood outside of the chamber praying in the spirit realms against those last two prayers because I don’t want Islamic and Hindu spirits released into the council chambers.

“She made a mockery of what is allowed and what’s convention.” Casey Mayor Sam Aziz said the current set up was one of fairness and that Ms Kaur’s extension of the multi-faith statement was “inappropriate”. “We respect all faith and cultures and the multi faith statement is designed to be one of unity about common values of humanity. “It’s not designed to be a platform for individual faith to get up there and deliver part of their faith,” he said. “I wasn’t offended by what she did but I was disappointed that a protocol had been breached. “I don’t think it was appropriate to extend the statement in the manner that she did.” Councillors Louise Berkelmans, Mick Morland and Rafal Kaplon all echoed the mayor’s sentiment. “I thought it was very inappropriate. They are allowed to

give the multi-faith statement and nothing else,” Cr Morland said. But Ms Kaur, who has been a Casey Multi-faith member for more than a year, said she was advised to chant. “It was my first time reading the multi-faith statement at council and I asked the officer or councillor who booked me if I should sing the chant and they said yes,” Ms Kaur told Star News. “I was not aware it was against protocol and I’m sorry if I offended anyone.” Cr Aziz said he did not step in at the time because he did not want to escalate the matter. “I could have easily reminded the reader that this was not the protocol, but I don’t think it would have been good leadership because it could have offended her,” he said. He said he has arranged for the relevant governance officers to advise Ms Kaur of the correct procedures for next time.

POLICE are investigating after two BMWs were stolen from inside a Cranbourne mechanic’s shop over the weekend, with the thieves also stealing the garage’s CCTV hard drive to cover their tracks. A silver 2006 BMW X5 and a blue 2006 BMW Coupe were stolen from Auto Care on

the South Gippsland Highway sometime between 6.30pm on Friday 4 December and 9.30am on Saturday 5 December. The thieves broke into the store through the glass front door, took the car keys hanging from a hook and stole the two cars which were in the process of being repaired.

They also stole a CCTV hard drive before fleeing the garage. It’s understood another two cars were in the garage at the time, but they weren’t stolen. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or make a confidential report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au.

FRESH from performing in The King and I, Berwick’s multiaward winning opera singer Shu-Cheen Yu will grace this year’s Cranbourne Community Christmas Carols. A Casey resident of 15 years, Shu-Cheen said she was humbled to perform for her local community. “I love singing carols and I was booked for another concert at the same time as the Cranbourne performance so I am making sure I can sing at both,” she said. Chatting on Casey Radio’s ‘The Women of Today’, ShuCheen revealed her life was set out for her before she was born. “My mother is a Chinese opera singer and when she was pregnant with me she still performed - at seven months she was on stage singing opera,” Shu-Cheen said, laughing. “I was destined to be a singer and actress.” But Shu-Cheen’s true passion lies elsewhere. “A lot of my family members work in medicine and I am very interested in it myself, Chinese medicine is my love,” she said. The Casey celebrity recently finished a real estate course to work alongside husband Kelvin Gough in their business ‘Safe Super Homes’ and said she was excited to watch her home town grow. “Casey is the best place to

CASEY residents have a lot to argue about - more than most of the state. Statistics recently released from the Dispute Settlement Centre of Victoria (DSCV) have revealed the City of Casey made the second highest number of calls for help in Victoria over the past year. Close to 900 calls to assist Casey residents in settling disputes were made to the DSCV in 2014/15, which is more than 78 other local government areas in Victoria. Greater Geelong City topped the list with 914 angry callers but Casey wasn’t far behind with 898 calls made. Neighbouring Cardinia Shire was much further down the list making just a quarter of Casey’s number at 230 calls for help. However just 50 Casey calls were referred for further advice and mediation with 303 Geelong residents taking their matters further. The free and confidential dispute resolution service deals with disagreements over fences, trees, animals, noise, drainage, difficult or antisocial behaviour, workplace issues, committees, clubs or incorporated associations, and matters referred to mediation by a magistrate. And the high number of rows in Casey has prompted the DSCV to release a message urging residents to “keep cool” this summer. DSCV director Gina Ralston said the festive season was often a busy period for the service with issues stemming from parties and family gatherings. “People often make the most of the warmer weather to use outside spaces to celebrate the festive season with family and friends. This can result in greater contact with neighbours, families and friends,” Ms Ralston said. “These are usually celebratory social occasions but can sometimes exacerbate existing tensions with neighbours around issues such as noise, behaviour and fencing disputes,” she said. Nearly 20,000 people seek help each year from DSCV to resolve disputes early. Of those, more than 7000 calls in 2014/15 were for fencing disputes, 5566 for behavioural issues and 536 for noise-related matters. Ms Ralston said many disputes could be resolved through communication and negotiation, which saved time, money and stress for individuals and families. “Doing something as simple and courteous as leaving a note in a neighbour’s letter box to let them know that you’re planning to host a gathering can avoid disagreements down the track,” she said. “We always encourage people to try and resolve their disputes among themselves where possible. But if that can’t be achieved, DSCV can assist and provide an alternative to court action,” Ms Ralston said. Anyone seeking to resolve a dispute can find further information on the DSCV website www. disputes.vic.gov.au

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Back in the workforce By CASEY NEILL NATHAN Isailofski never thought he’d be able to handle a 7am start at work. But with help from DVJS Employment Solutions and employer Lakkis Catering, the 22-year-old from Narre Warren is now doing just that. He’s worked for Lakkis since February and is no longer letting his battle with mental illness hold him back. Nathan started out working afternoon shifts. “Sleep is a big problem for me but we’ve worked through it,” he said. He gradually brought back his starting time, an hour at a time. “It was what I needed to be able to keep a job,” he said. “In the past I’ve just burnt out. Being able to do it and do it at my own pace ... “Now I’m starting at 7am which I thought I’d never be able to do. “This is the longest I’ve ever held a job.” Max Lakkis is one of three brothers who own Lakkis Catering, which has cafe contracts with Holmesglen TAFE in Chadstone and Glen Waverley, Kangan TAFE in Docklands and Federation Training at Chadstone. He employs five clients with mental illness disabilities through DVJS - formerly Dan-

They come in very shy and very nervous. “It’s all about empowering people and letting them realise what they’re capable of.” Mr Lakkis also offers unpaid on-site training for DVJS clients.

“People have got some experience in the kitchen and moved on to work somewhere else,” he said. He said DVJS provided training and check-ups and government incentives made his decision to give people a go a little easier. “Without that you wouldn’t take the risk,” he said. “A lot of them are slower or not as capable as able-bodied people.” DVJS is a non-profit service with eight sites in the southeast, including Dandenong, Cranbourne, Narre Warren and Pakenham. It specialises in placing people with disabilities into the general workforce.

THE future is all about flexibility, businesses at the SEBN Christmas Industry Breakfast have been told. “I want you to think of yourselves as a recyclable bottle,” global business futurist Morris Miselowski said at Sandown Racecourse in Springvale on Thursday 3 December. The morning’s 190 guests donated cash to buy Christmas gifts for those less fortunate, to be distributed through agencies including Dandenong Community Aid and Advice Bureau. The generosity continued when Simone Hackett from State Schools Relief Fund (SSRF) spoke about how money from the Take a Swing for Charity golf day had supported struggling students. Golfers raised more than $44,000 at the SEBN event in February, which helped SSRF to dress 679 students at 17 schools within Greater Dandenong in $95,977 worth of clothing this year. SSRF will also be the recipient of next year’s golf day proceeds, which are scheduled for Monday 22 February at Sandhurst Golf Club. Mr Miselowski told breakfast guests that some of today’s most successful companies had no assets - driver service Uber owns no cars, accommodation service Airbnb owns no hotels. He expects this trend towards “using rather than owning” to continue. Tomorrow’s jobs will include tasks not yet imagined. Mr Miselowski said everyone would be employing a transhumanist designer within 10 years - a human resources role assigning tasks to humans and robots. Other roles of the future will include vertical farming and genome specialists, 3D prosthetic engineers and machine linguists.

Martin Miselowski speaks to SEBN breakfast guests. 148002

Accountants and auditors, retail sales assistants and library technicians are among those on the way out, Mr Miselowski said. He said employing many people in one space from 9am to 5pm weekdays would become anachronistic, and businesses would instead have a small team they could add to when necessary. Wearable devices will continue to increase in popularity, he said, to the point where in 10 years everybody would be wearing nine devices at any given time. “The world is increasingly based on data,” he said. Mr Miselowski said more inanimate objects would be hooked up to interact with and understand humans. Homes will recognise that their owners are about to arrive and open the garage door, turn on lights and more. “And next year will be a huge growth year for drones

across the planet,” Mr Miselowski said. But don’t worry: “This is not robots taking over the world.” “There will still be humans at every touch point. “At the core we are still humans. We still have need for all the products and services in this room.” He said today’s tsunami of new technology would calm down in 10 to 20 years. “We’re seeing so much that is so different,” he said. Autonomous cars could be a matter of years from dominating roads, dramatically reducing - if not eliminating - road deaths. Mr Miselowski said they’d also remove the need for driver’s licences and so improve transport accessibility for the disabled, elderly and young. The more efficient mechanised driving would also be better for environment, he said, and less stressful for commuters.

Cash goes to car cast-offs By CASEY NEILL AN $8.4 million boost to skills, training and job search support in the south-east is part of a $46.5 million State Government auto industry transition package. Premier Daniel Andrews and Industry Minister Lily D’Ambrosio launched the Towards Future Industries: Victoria’s Automotive Transition Plan on Monday 7 December. The plan followed announcements from Ford, Holden and Toyota last year that they would stop manufacturing in Australia by 2017. Training and Skills Minister Steve Herbert joined Dandenong MP Gabrielle Williams at Chisholm’s Dandenong campus to outline the South East Automotive Industry Transition Package (SEAT). “With the decline in auto-

motive manufacturing in the south-east, it is crucial we support TAFEs and other training organisations to retain workers so they don’t become a statistic,” he said. SEAT will include $4 million for a joint project between Chisholm and Holmesglen Institutes to up-skill and re-skill retrenched automotive supply chain workers, engage workers with industry, support businesses to restructure into new opportunities and to help retrenched workers find jobs. There’ll be $2 million to establish two Skills and Jobs Centres to allow Chisholm and Holmesglen to work directly with employers to help prospective students find jobs or move into further training. The remaining $2 million will fund Group Training Organisations (GTOs) to employ about 250 retrenched mature

aged automotive supply chain workers as apprentices and trainees. GTOs will receive $10,000 per apprentice they take on and $6000 per trainee aged over 40. Towards Future Industries: Victoria’s Automotive Transition Plan also included a $5 million Automotive Supply Chain Transition program to help businesses identify and capture new opportunities in other markets; a $33 million Local Industry Fund for Transition to support communities hit hard by the departure of Ford, Holden and Toyota; incentive payments up to $7000 for businesses employing retrenched automotive workers; and up to an additional $4000 for employees who provide workers hired under the scheme with accredited training.

BUYERS MOVE QUICKLY TO THE RIDGE CONSTRUCTION is underway at Peet’s new Acacia community in the sought-after suburb of Botanic Ridge, paving the way for buyers to start building their new homes in mid-2016. Peet managing director and CEO Brendan Gore said the response from homebuyers to the new community has been incredibly positive. “The masterplan for Acacia takes full advantage of its natural setting and that is certainly proving to be a drawcard for buyers looking to live close to nature while still being close to important amenities and key transport links,” Mr Gore said. “This presents a unique opportunity for a range of homebuyers, including those looking to upgrade their home - and lifestyle.” And buyers have been quick to act, with stage one selling out and the release of stage two brought forward to meet demand. More than 60 home sites have now sold at Acacia since land sales began in July. Brett and Michelle Simmonds are delighted with their purchase at Acacia. “We knew we were on a good thing when we bought,” said 28-year-old Michelle Simmonds. “Acacia was selling like hot cakes. It’s got ‘family’ written all over it. “We live nearby and there are lots of new estates around the area but Acacia has a lot of things the others were

lacking,” Michelle said. Brett and Michelle have secured one of the keenly contested corner blocks overlooking the wetlands they had their hearts set on. “We loved the block, we loved the wetlands and there’s so much going on in the estate. “There’s the future school, parks and facilities, a shopping centre, there’s even a community centre planned,” she said. “For us with a young family, they’re all massive ticks in the box.” Michelle said the family will grow and 10-month-old Byron will have brothers or sisters to explore the wetlands with and kick a football or throw a frisbee in the park. “We’ll go for walks, feed the animals and play in the parks,” Michelle said. “We’ll be living in an estate but also surrounded by nature.” The Simmonds are planning to build their new two-storey home around a balcony with a focus on

NOW SELLING MAGENTA STAGE 14

Acacia’s wetlands. “Quite literally, the balcony will be the main feature of the house,” Michelle said. ”It will be an unusual house in that we want the living areas upstairs connecting onto a big balcony so we can do our living and entertaining overlooking the wetlands.” The Simmonds recently took their son Byron to visit Acacia and were amazed at how quickly the site works were progressing. The family is looking forward to living in Botanic Ridge, a suburb with a good name and postcode as well as easy access to Casey Fields and the amenities of Cranbourne. Acacia is just three kilometres from the Cranbourne town centre in one of Melbourne’s most sought-after locations.

THE team at Clark First National Real Estate Warragul and Drouin took on a different look during November - but it was all in a good cause. With more men dying from prostate cancer each year than women from breast cancer and suicide being the greatest killer of men aged 15 to 44 years, the Movember Foundation challenged all men to grow and women to support the Mo for 30 days to help spark conversations between men about their health - and the team at Clark First National answered the call. In fact they did it in spectacular fashion raising $2334 dollars across the month though some were more spectacular than others - according to sales co-ordinator Daisy Wright. Daisy said Matt Pyle was named Man of Movember for his spectacular effort while Dean Macfarlane and Anthony Rabl both finished at the back of the pack in the mo growing stakes.

Pollies pitching in for a greater goal By LACHLAN MOORHEAD POLITICIANS can be pretty willing when they’re in Parliament House, but get them on the soccer pitch and they become even more competitive. Dandenong MP Gabrielle Williams and State Treasurer Tim Pallas were among the seven MPs who took to the field in a friendship match against players from the Doveton Special Soccer School (DSSS) on Saturday. Ms Williams and the school’s founder and director Juan Carlos Loyola organised the match, held at Waratah Reserve in Eumemmering, to coincide with the end of the club’s 2015 program, and to raise awareness of the school’s valuable work. The game ended in a 10-1 thrashing in favour of the DSSS, and was followed by a barbecue and a formal presentation. The DSSS gives opportunities for intellectually disabled children and adults across Victoria to play soccer, develop their skills and make new friends. Carlos has run the DSSS for more than 24 years with the help of volunteers, parents and community support. “The school is a credit to our local community,” Ms Williams said. “It ensures that people of all abilities have an opportunity to engage in physical activity, and benefit from the social rewards of playing team sport.”

Piper back on feet By JARROD POTTER BRAVERY almost cost Reece Piper the ability to walk, but the courage to get past his accident ensured he wouldn’t be lost to football forever. While 2015 started off amazingly for the young midfielder - earning his Berwick senior debut in round one - the rest of the year quickly became a battle to get back on the field after a harrowing TAC Cup incident. In his Dandenong Stingrays debut, Piper, 16, from Berwick, remembers his four minutes of elite football vividly. It was cut extremely short in the first term as the Stingray slammed head-first into the Shepley Oval fence from an attempted spoil on the grandstand wing. While the initial diagnosis was grim - with limited movement leading doctors to think he might be paralysed - Piper escaped the incident with torn back ligaments instead of spinal fractures or worse. “I didn’t think I would be playing football again when I was hospital,” Piper said. “Just coming back and seeing where it happened and being to training with the boys, things like that just motivate you, basically. But throughout his rehabilitation - including a month off work and more than two months before he could run again - he knew he wanted to get back out to Shepley Oval. Last week Piper fulfilled the promise he made to himself as he returned to

the training track with the Stingrays. He was thrilled just to be out there after his nearbrush with what could’ve been a forced retirement as he looks towards the 2016 TAC Cup season. “Pretty excited, pretty keen to get back - it was a terrible incident coming into the fence but just to get back out there again with the boys is great,” Piper said. “Been hitting the gym a bit - been there for over a month and a half - getting in there and strengthening the back up. “I’ve now got a bigger mindset on what to do - rehab and those kinds of things - and just how much you’ve got to do and push yourself to get back into footy.” While most people dread pre-season training, the summer run-around means Piper is one step closer to returning to the Stingrays’ line-up for his top-age draft year and a hopeful round one return. “Going through it now, feeling that I’m feeling much better now,” Piper said. “There’s this excitement - just pushing to be out there again and most of all just getting back into it. “I need to get my fitness up to peak, work on my skills and mingling with the new boys who are training with us. “Definitely just want to play round one.” Piper said he was grateful to his family, friends and the Stingrays who stuck with him.

Umpires help Nepal kids’ recovery effort By JARROD POTTER THREE South East Juniors umpires made their mark on Nepal, working hard as part of a Heritage College volunteer recovery effort. Heritage College Officer campus students Jason Girardo and Jordan May, along with May’s father Paul Bower, went to Nepal recently to help the Nepalese recovery effort, following the massive earthquake that shook the nation in April. The trio - part of an Adventist Development and Relief Agency (ADRA) trip - lent their support to rebuild a school in Dulikhel, 30 kilometres south of the capital Kathmandu. Taking off late last month for the 10-day trip, the trio brought along plenty of footballs to give out to the eager children at the 230-student school and teach them a thing or two about the game in between the hard work to get the school back

up and running. “This is a great opportunity for us to be able to go over there - not only students, but parents of students as well - and we appreciate all the efforts of the school in being able to accommodate us,” Bower said. “We’ll be helping out with carpentry, painting, laying carpet, putting furniture in and generally helping to get the school up and running again.” May was inspired after seeing the devastation on the news and wanted to help out in any way he could as part of the Year 11 volunteer project. “Just seen all of the pictures from other trips and it looks like what they’ve been doing is a real plus for the community,” May said. “Because of all the stuff we have and they don’t have almost anything - so to be able to do that for them is a great thing we can do to help.”

South East Juniors umpires Jordan May, Paul Bower and Jason Girardo were part of a trip to Nepal to help with the recovery Picture: JARROD POTTER effort. 147223 The three umpires spent 10 days in Nepal as part of the project and Bower wanted to thank Lexus Crash

Repairers and Toyota Repairers who have helped raise $10,500 to help the relief effort.

HAVING represented Australia already, young Beaconsfield soccer star Maddy Hanna is turning heads already in her burgeoning soccer journey. The St Francis Xavier student had the experience of a lifetime when Hanna, 15, recently travelled to South East Asia to represent Footskills Australia in the Singapore Cup. Playing in the heat made the 10-day, sevengame trip a challenge, but despite the soaring humidity and temperature, the holding-midfielder loved every second of playing for her country. “It was really amazing actually - was really warm over there so it was hard to play through,” Hanna said. “The team and our coaches were really good we bonded really quickly. We played against really good teams - played Germany and beat them 3-0 which was really good and then the semi-final came down to a penalty shootout which we won and we all went crazy and psycho. “We lost our grand final - but we lost to a really good team - so we finished second and the boys finished third.” She didn’t get to feature much in the grand final after dislocating her ankle, leaving her to watch on from a wheelchair as the Australian side was downed by Thai team Chonburi FC 1-2. “In the grand final in the second minute I had to be wheelchaired off,” Hanna said. “Only two minutes into the match - I’m alright now though. “Playing against Chonburi - the Thai team - all their players were international players and playing against them was a really good, fun experience.” The trip started in Kuala Lumpur as the Footskills Australia side trained at the prestigious Singapore Sports School before beating a local sports side 8-0 to warm up before the tournament. Her next challenge will be in the newly formed Women’s National Premier League (WNPL) Victorian competition where she is training with Southern United, but her dream is to get a chance in the best college system on the planet, playing in America’s NCAA competition on a college scholarship. She wanted to thank her coach Ian Williamson for selecting her in the side and his disciplined, but effective, mentoring

Star set to train juniors By JARROD POTTER

Berwick City Cougars pitcher Mark Surtees was outstanding for his side in a bounce-back Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT win on Sunday. 148241

Cougars blow away losses By RUSSELL BENNETT THE Berwick City Cougars snapped their six-game losing streak in emphatic style on Sunday afternoon, smashing Malvern 10-1 at Cyril Molyneux Reserve. Cougars manager Dan Betreen said the result was richly deserved for a side that had played strong baseball in recent rounds but didn’t have the wins on the board to show for it. “It was great that we could really put the foot down and show what we could do as a team,” he said. “We had the momentum from the second inning and it was great to see us actually execute from a scoring position. “We had five (runs) in the third and that was all from

keeping the ball in play, finding the gaps and hitting it hard. “It was a great confidence boost for us as a side.” The Cougars are now in a great position to capitalise on the Malvern win by taking strong momentum into their upcoming pre-Christmas clashes with Bonbeach and Ballarat. “Next week is all about scoring early and putting pressure on right from the start,” Betreen said, admitting that his side reached a low point with its 6-0 loss to Port Melbourne in Round 11. But since then the Cougars have refused to let frustration get the better of them during games, or let pressure snowball into negativity. While Betreen was thrilled with his side’s hitting prowess

on Sunday, it was starting pitcher Mark Surtees who shone specifically. “He really set the tone with his first inning,” Betreen said. “He’s doing a lot of great work for us on defence and the side is feeding off that.” In further good news for the Cougars, Hawaiian import Eland Tsubata is once again fully fit - adding another string to the side’s already impressive bow. Berwick City will head to Bonbeach this Sunday where its game will start at with its game starting at 3.30pm. The Cougars are currently fifth on the Baseball Victoria Summer League Division 2 ladder, level on points with the fourth-placed Williamstown.

CALLING in the big guns to coach the next generation of female soccer talent, former Matilda Debbie Nichols will be part of the inaugural coaching set-up at Southern United. In a coup for the Under 13 program, Nichols, from Beaconsfield, is set to coach the smallest Southerners in the inaugural Women’s National Premier League (WNPL) competition. Nichols brings a great wealth of playing and coaching experience to the side - having featured for Australia 12 times including at the World Cup and an upset-defeat of Brazil in 1983 - and she’s excited to see the south east super-club earn its place in the league. “It’s a bit of a shock to the system, but the numbers have been good,” Nichols said. “Really pleased and it’s good that Southern got up in the consortium bid as this is a growth area of Melbourne and you’d want to make sure it’s represented.” Having played in Australia since she was 12 - going through senior sides at Springvale, Dandenong North, Dandenong, Berwick City and the Casey Comets - Nichols thinks the junior girls pathway will allow kids to slowly develop and hone their skills rather than fending for themselves against the adults. “It’s absolutely exploded the fact that at this age, me and Theresa (Deas) had to play in senior teams as there was no junior set up,” Nichols said. “It makes it easier for those who maybe aren’t as talented now - who wouldn’t survive playing open age.

Former Matilda Debbie Nichols has joined Southern United Picture: JARROD POTTER as a junior WNPL coach. 146864 “It gives them an opportunity to develop between 12 and 17 ... and gives them a pathway and a great opportunity to grow.” While she’s used to coaching the seniors - having stood at the helm of the Casey Comets for 15 years - Nichols thought it was nice to step back to juniors and help cultivate the south east’s finest. “I’ve been coaching senior women for 15 years at least and I’ve had some absolute superstar 13 and 14-year-olds through that period,” Nichols

said. “I’ve done all age groups before but never a group this young so it’s going to be different.” “It will be fun - takes a bit of pressure off not doing the seniors - but we’ll see how we go.” Southern United president Theresa Deas - another south east soccer champion from the Dandenong area - thought Nichols' appointment was a boon for the juniors as the club looks towards its inaugural 2016.

New juniors structure for SEFNL By DAVID NAGEL DIVISIONAL football has come earlier than expected to the South East Football Netball League with the SEFNL board deciding to run two Under 19 tiers in 2016. The decision will see the demise of the Under 18s competition and mean - for the first time since the now SEFNL clubs formed to become the Casey Cardinia Football League in 2005 - that there will be no Under 17s or 18s football at senior clubs next season. Under 17 football will become the sole domain of the South East Juniors with players then transitioning to Under 19s at senior clubs. SEFNL expects some of its member clubs to field teams in both divisions, some will just field one, with the remainder of division two to be made up of new clubs entering the league. The SEFNL board’s decision is the direct result of a 2014 AFL South East Youth Football

Review that concentrated on the transition from junior to senior football for 16-20 year olds. One of the worrying statistics that triggered the review was that a staggering 82 per cent of the 2014 Under 17s competition, or 252 of 310 players, were not eligible to remain in 2015. It forced SEFNL’s hand to revert to both Under 18 and Under 19 competitions this year. SEFNL Operations Manager and board member Liz Triffitt said the new structure was crucial to the growth and sustainability of existing clubs and important in trying to attract new clubs into the competition.

“Obviously growth is an important part of our strategic plan and this does provide the opportunity for new clubs to come across,” Triffitt said. “An entry level in division two is a lot less daunting and provides a staggered progression for potential new clubs.” Some of those potential new clubs, not officially aligned to senior SEFNL clubs at the moment, include SEJ affiliates Narre North Foxes, Narre South Lions, Endeavour Hills, Fountain Gate and Berwick Springs. Those clubs now have a vehicle to launch their own Under 19s, and build administration structures that could see them become part of senior divisional football in the future. The SEFNL board has recognised that in moving forward with its desire to establish senior divisional football, it needed to create opportunities for new clubs to join SEFNL. Any club wishing to join SEFNL can call Liz Triffitt on 5995 5060.

Brown scores a medal

Casey’s repeat win By JARROD POTTER VICTORIAN PREMIER CRICKET REVIEW - ROUND 10 and 11 (Twenty20) CASEY South-Melbourne’s (7/164) second triumph in as many weeks was in many ways a carbon-copy of its first. With his side struggling at 3/9 against bottom ranked Greenvale Kangaroos (108), the batting burden fell to captain Lachlan Sperling (86) - who stood up and posted his best Premier innings so far. Belting Greenvale around Casey Fields - Sperling sent a few sixes into the trees, showing the best of his batting at the right time - standing alongside Michael Wallace (41) in a match-defining 111-run partnership.

Wallace was hitting them just as cleanly as the captain - putting three sixes and a couple of cracking fours into the ledger before falling to Ramneet Dhindsa (2/31). The captain kept the pace up as a century loomed, but Sperling unselfishly played the team game and went the late wallop to his personal detriment - falling to Aaron Smillie (4/23). Their good work set the stage for the Swans’ bowlers. Outside of Adam Amin (62no) the rest of the Kangaroos’ order hopped from the crease quickly. James Seymour (3/18) and Brendan Rose (2/23) proved the instigators of the visitors’ demise with a 56-run victory secured with an over in hand. Saturday wasn’t as pleasing for Casey (117) as Fitzroy-Doncaster (5/171) was too mighty in the end.

Casey hosts Melbourne Uni in the final two-dayer of 2015. Meagre rations proved enough for Dandenong (8/92) to get by against Geelong (5/87) on Saturday. After Tom Donnell (21) and Brett Forsyth (14) got the side away, a familiar affliction set into the Panthers’ attack. Forsyth had an early chance dropped in the deep but couldn’t cash in afterwards as the small boundaries at Shepley Oval seemed fortified against Dandenong’s efforts. From set and ready to fire at 0/42, to scrambling to reconsolidate at 4/49, the old ways began to creep back in. It took a stand up innings from Tanner Stanton (21) to correct the sinking innings and he eventually found help down the order via first grade debutant Peter Cassidy (10no)

- who pushed the tally to 8/92 at the completion. Geelong’s chase was too sedate as Hayden Butterworth (39) went at a Twenty20 snail’s pace - striking at 75 as he and Josh McDonald (25) cantered through the opening phase of the clash. A couple of clutch wickets when the side was ready to launch proved devastating to leave Geelong in disarray. Butterworth’s glacially-paced innings drew to an end via Fairbanks as well as the visitors had no more answers to Dandenong’s persistent line and length. Dandenong faced Melbourne away on Sunday and just lost 4/122 to 7/136 despite the best efforts of James Wilcock (3/22) and the openers Forsyth (46) and Donnell (43).

CARDINIA BEACONHILLS GOLF THE monthly medal was played last Saturday and the winner was Peter Brown (14) with an impressive 64 nett. The A Grade winner was Nick Jones (7) with 68 c/b nett and Matthew French (17) won the C Grade with 66 c/b. The best gross on the day is Matt Rennison (3) with 71. In Sunday’s Par competition, new member Hoppy Ing (18) secured his first comp win and the (8th round) Beaconhills Cup with +6. Brian Czempinski (21) was runner-up with +5 c/b. MIDWEEK On Tuesday, Matt van der Kraan (2) won A Grade in the members competition with 41 points and Franz Eckhardt (23) won B Grade with 42 points. In Thursday’s members competition, Roy Solomon (6) had a massive 44 points to win the A Grade and Colin Campbell (26) took out the B Grade comp with an impressive 48 points. In Wednesday’s comp, Judy Butler (32) played well with 40 points and Jean Wheatley scored her first hole in one on the 6th hole.

Peter Brown took home the December Monthly Medal from the Cardinia Beaconhills Golf Links on Saturday.

BUCKLEY RIDGES v HEINZ SOUTHERN DISTRICTS GIVING a monster margin a good shake, Heinz (259) was just pipped at the post by Buckley Ridges (283).

It left too much work for Hari Krishan (69) and the rest of the attack as Lukas Hoogenboom (4/54) toiled to get his side through. Krishan cashed in at the postage stamp - belting six fours and four sixes - as he upped the Cobras’ run-rate, but the visitors ran out of steam just as Hoogenboom got his second wind. A gallant tail-wag from Rob Davies (23) and Lee Brown (12) kept forward momentum, but the clean-up was just about done as Wes Nicholas

(2/40) and Susantha Pradeep (2/36) chipped in at the death. Buckley Ridges sits third and will face Berwick away. The Cobras host Lyndale to cap off 2015. HALLAM KALORA PARK v BERWICK REAR-GUARD 80s from Adam Watson and Josh Holden ensured Berwick (3/211) chased down Hallam Kalora Park (9/207) with plenty of time to spare. Battling to stay in the top four, the Bears’ top order was more than enough to hunt the total. Ryan Williamson (25) started strongly alongside Watson (89) and his mantle was carried on by returning Premier opener Holden (89no). The Watson/Holden combination held a three-hour vigil in the middle as the total slowly but surely was chipped away. Holden slapped a couple of sixes to keep the scoreboard ticking and in the end the duo surpassed the Hawks with 15 overs left. Watson’s wicket - out caught off Amila Perera (1/43) called an end to proceedings - leaving Holden stranded 11 runs shy of what would’ve been his first Berwick ton since the 2011/12 semi-final. Jordan Hammond (2/27) was miserly from his 10 overs but couldn’t crack the main

partnership. Berwick faces Buckley Ridges while Hallam heads out to Sweeney Reserve to face the Magpies. CRANBOURNE v NARRE WARREN BATTING practice was the order of the day for Cranbourne (107 and 7/206) - with the Eagles not even bothering to hunt down a 10-pointer against Narre Warren (72). After tying up first innings points last week, the Eagles set about giving the full roster an extended run in the middle as the opportunity for an outright didn’t eventuate. Jake Harrington (47) glued himself to the crease alongside Martin Kelly (37) and Brayden Roscoe (27) as the top order held firm against the Magpies’ finest. Jarryd Straker (3/54) spun his way through Kelly, Harrington and Lucas Ligt (3) while Janaka Liyanabadalge (2/76) also found some form in his 21 overs. Matt Chasemore (56no) came in at six and had a field day while skipper Steve Spoljaric didn’t even put the pads on - in what was a rare day off for the DDCA legend. Cranbourne heads to North Dandenong for the final fixture of 2015 while Narre hosts Hallam Kalora Park.

Smith roars galore By DAVID NAGEL IT’S a saying we have all heard before, “it’s a funny game cricket”, and it has never been more appropriate after what took place between the top-two sides in West Gippsland Premier Division on Saturday. Pakenham (176) and Tooradin (59) packed more into 76 overs at Toomuc Reserve than the big man in the red suit will into his sleigh in two weeks’ time. It was high-octane action with 20 wickets falling for just 235 runs by day’s end. And it was two home-town heroes who stole the show. First, Chris Smith (107), the sublimely talented Pakenham opener who has made more runs than any man in the history of the Premier Division. Smith was the rudder that saved an ailing ship, blazing 17 fours on the way to his third century of the season as his team-mates fell around him. Tooradin’s attack, led by Aaron Avery (3/39), Dylan Sutton (3/53) and Josh Lownds (2/36) would have been smirking after rolling through the undefeated hosts in just 51.2 overs. But what happened next quickly wiped the smile from their faces. Led by irrepressible left-hander Jack Ryan (5/25), the Lions produced a session of cricket that longtime supporters claim to be the best they have ever seen. Ryan claimed the prized wicket of Tooradin captain Tom Hussey (0) with the third ball of the innings and then sliced through the Seagulls like a hot knife through butter. Remarkably, Ryan and the match-winning Smith (4/12) took just 23.5 overs to end the Seagulls’ innings. “I really don’t know what to say, it was definitely a day for the cricket gods,” Lions skipper Dom Paynter said to the News before praising Ryan for his spell. “It was fast and aggressive, but

Christmas magic

Pakenham gun Chris Smith shows a touch of class on his way to 107 against Tooradin on Saturday. 147959 Picture: ROB CAREW also controlled and measured,” he said. Cardinia (2/35) spinner Dwayne Doig (6/70) has taken his tally to 27 wickets for the season after leading the Bulls into a powerful position against Merinda Park (152) at Gunton Oval. Doig showed his class by taking five top-order wickets on the trot to bring a halt to the Cobras’ early momentum. Anthony Craddock (56) and skipper Danny Diwell (25 not out) were best for the Cobras while Trav Wheller (3/26) provided valu-

able support for Doig. Upper Beaconsfield (4/124) has already claimed its second win for the season after outclassing Emerald (89) at home. Chad McDonald (4/20), Jayden Joyce (2/16), Scott Pitcher (2/1) and Tommy Tyrrell (2/21) did the damage for the Maroons, before Matt Hutson (42 not out) and Julian Bayard (31 not out) topped off a great day with an unbeaten 67-run stand. Hashan Goonetilleke (3/30) toiled manfully for the Bombers.

And Kooweerup (3/122dec) looks primed for consecutive outright victories after dominating dayone against Cranbourne Meadows (118 and 4/49). This one would be over already if not for the batting of Shameera Weerasinghe (81 and 42 not out), who made 123 of the Rebels’ 167 runs for the day. Matt Davey (4/8), Jake Bardwell (56 not out) and skipper Michael Giles (49) were the Demons best performers.

State colours and more for Samason By JARROD POTTER RETURNING to the Victorian colours for another year has Killester College’s Rahni Samason “over the moon”. With a wide array of netball commitments already scheduled for 2016, Samason, 17, is in the midst of a hectic summer preparing for April’s national championships in Perth. Samason was one of 12 Victorian under-17s to make the cut, and she wasn’t any less excited the second time around getting another chance in the navy blue. “It’s a fantastic opportunity, I’m overjoyed just being able to do it,” Samason said. “It’s such a great honour and privilege to represent my state again. “It’s very interesting to see the best of each state battle it out - Victoria always are in really good shape and it’s great to have that competition. “I just want to make sure I’m in the best shape I can be - so I’m the absolute best that I can and hopefully help my team take out the championship.” Her state duties add yet another layer of netball complexity to her already jam-packed schedule.

Rahni Samason will play for Victoria once again as her busy 2016 netball schedule continued to fill up. 127674 Picture: JARROD POTTER She trained with the Australian under-17 team at Netball Australia’s Centre of Excellence in Canberra last May and that selection also

earned her a scholarship for the Victorian Institute of Sport. Samason also made the step up to the Championship Division in the

VNL this season as she relished her time with the Southern Saints. “I play Championship Division this year and the girls are all so lovely and Jane Searle, she’s the coach, she’s absolutely brilliant and always trying to help me,” Samason said. When you add her training duties with the ANL Victorian Fury as well, her busy timetable has forced Samason to leave Doveton, where she has been a fixture for the last two seasons. With all the commitments on her plate, the 2014 Casey Cardinia (now South East) A Grade MVP and premiership player had to make the tough choice to leave the Doves in favour of her neighbourhood side Heatherton. “Everything is happening now all at once, all these other netball commitments made it extremely difficult to play at Doveton, with travel as I have brothers who play sport as well,” Samason said. “Trying to tie it all in was pretty difficult and my parents can’t be everywhere at once and Heatherton is within walking distance for me.” Samason wanted to thank her parents and family for their unwavering support of her netball ambitions.

Camry grilles and bears it By EWAN KENNEDY

fornian design centre, Calty, where I’m not sure they understand the concept of ‘conservative’. Camry, and its brother Aurion (which is a Camry with a V6 engine) are still being built in Altona but only until 2017 when, sadly, local car manufacturing in Australia becomes nothing but history. Our test car for the past week was the semisporty variant, the Camry Atara SX. Interestingly, it’s designed and made purely for Australian market. This is a smart move given the number of hot variants of Commodores and Falcons sold here, not to forget the big sales of ultra-sporty models from Audi, BMW and Mercedes. Keen on attracting younger buyers Toyota Australia has given Camry new body panels everywhere except the roof and it has also gone for the biggest baddest grille of all. Camry Atara SX has 18-inch alloy wheels with low profile tyres and sports suspension. Though Toyota’s commitment to petrol-electric hybrid technology is used in all other versions of the Camry, the Atara SX doesn’t get it, which seems odd given that hybrids provide extra urge off the line and are increasingly common in the top levels of motorsport these days. Changes to the trim and a new design of steering wheel are aimed at giving Camry a more upmarket feel. Toyota Link is installed in Camry Atara SX. It provides Pandora music streaming, apps that can used to find destinations, fuel and weather details and roadside assistance. It can use voice recognition and Toyota Link.

TOYOTA Camry has been unfairly put down by too many people when they comment on its conservative looks. Now the Japanese giant has given it a radical reworking in its shape. With most of the work being done in its Cali-

Huge grille dominates the front of the heavily revised Toyota Camry. Pandora is operated through the vehicle's audio head unit via a touchscreen display; there’s Bluetooth, Aux, and USB connectivity; AM/FM radio and a CD player. The 2.5-litre petrol engine is unchanged with 135 kW of power and 235 Nm of torque in the Atara SX. Transmission is by six-speed automatic through the front wheels. The upgraded Toyota Camry retains its fivestar ANCAP safety rating with all models coming with seven airbags, reversing camera, vehicle stability and traction control, ABS brakes with brake assist and electronic brakeforce distribution; and LED daytime running lights. We stepped out of the Atara SX feeling very impressed after our initial drives out of Melbourne in May this year. After a week of heavy-duty traffic driving, some lovely country running and a quick trip over

our secret test route behind the Gold Coast nothing has changed our opinions. It’s no sports machine, but the Atara SX is certainly the most enjoyable Camry we’ve ever driven. The suspension work was done in Australia, mainly by Aussie engineers, but there’s some input from Japanese engineers as well. A new design differential is installed in all Camry models, not just the Atara SX.

Fiat makes the crossover

www.pakenhamisuzuute.com.au

(03) 5922 4111

By EWAN KENNEDY

Introductory offer to new and existing customers for now and into the New Year! Basic Oil and Filter Service and a full safety inspection.

All-new Fiat 500X looks like a regular Fiat 500 at the front, but takes the SUV route in other areas. may be rather risque for Australia. Suffice to say a viagra-type pill manages to find its way into fuel tank of a standard Fiat 500 and causes it to expand into the 500X. The Fiat 500X was designed in conjunction with the recently launched Jeep Renegade. Fiat controls Chrysler and Jeep these days after the American giant got into financial strife in early days of the GFC. There’s a nice combination of Italian style and American all-wheel-drive knowhow in this partnership. Not that the 500X is aimed at tackling the Rubicon Trail, but its clever AWD system gives it added traction on slippery wet roads, or in icy conditions in the Snowy Mountains or Tasmania. Should you not need AWD the 500X also comes with 2WD, through the front wheels, at a lower cost. Which brings us to the price - Fiat 500X is not cheap. With a

range starting at $28,000 for the 500X Pop with two-wheel-drive and a six-speed manual gearbox and rising to $39,000 for the allwheel-drive 500X Cross Plus with automatic transmission. As well as the Pop and Cross Plus, the 500X is sold as the Pop Star an rrp of $33,000 and the Lounge for $38,000. The 500X Pop can be specified with an automatic transmission for an added $2000. The auto is a six-speed dualclutch unit, which is standard in the Pop Star (love that name!). The AWD models, the Lounge and Cross Plus, have a ninespeed automatic. On a positive note equipment levels are high. The new Fiat 500X offers Italian style, the ability to be personalised in thousands of different ways - yet is practical as well. What more could you ask from this expanded Fiat Cinquecento?

FIAT has expanded its popular 500 range with the introduction of a crossover SUV called the 500X. The ‘X’ sort of stands for crossover and joins the 500L, a model not imported to Australia at this stage, in providing added interior space and the handiness of back doors. It’s significantly larger than the standard Fiat 500 but carries a family resemblance to its baby brother at the front, in various details around the body, and in the nifty interior. Like the 500, the 500X is offered in a big variety of colours and there’s a huge range of accessories to permit personalisation. Would you believe 12 body colours, 15 dress-up decals, nine choices of door mirror covers, five door-sill inserts, five alloy wheel designs, fabrics and leather can be part of the pack. And did we mention the key fob can be ordered in five different designs? Look out new Mini and Renault Captur, the Fiat 500X is out to challenge you in the customisation stakes. I love it - there are far too many cars in different shades of grey on our road these days. Olivier Francois, the global head of Fiat, paid Australia the honour of flying from Italy to talk us through the design and marketing of his all-new 500X. The marketing includes an overseas TV commercial that
