TENSIONS are on the rise as a Facebook page trying to stop a new mosque being built in Narre Warren North garnered more than 5000 likes in less than a week.

The Stop the Mosque in Narre Warren page had attracted 5618 likes as of Wednesday 2 March.

A planning application to build a “place of worship” at 365-367 Belgrave-Hallam Road is being considered by Casey council.

The application, which includes plans for a school, was submitted by the Saarban Islamic Trust.

The protest page is calling on people to sign a petition objecting to the mosque and the council is taking submissions on the issue until 11 March.

A post from the page administrator states that Narre Warren North is “rural” and therefore not “suitable for a mosque” which will “destroy and go against the beautiful landscape and the foothills of the Dandenongs”.

Penny (not her real name) lives nearby and signed the petition after raising concerns that the mosque would create traffic chaos.

“We’re nervous it’s going to go ahead whether we like it or not and we don’t get a say,” she said.

“Narre Warren North is a small community; it’s semi-rural and not suburban.”

Pastor Danial Nalliah, the president of the hard-right Rise Up Australia Party, spoke out against the mosque plans on Channel 7 News on Tuesday along with his RUAP deputy and Casey councillor Rosalie Crestani.

Pastor Nalliah, whose office is in nearby Hallam, went beyond traffic concerns, claiming that a new mosque would increase the “potential” for a

terrorist attack. “A mosque is similar to a Nazi camp next door,” Pastor Nalliah told Channel 7.

“True Islam is terrorism.”

Mohammed El-Leissy, from the Jewish Christian Muslim Association, slammed the anti-Islamic sentiment.

“You don’t see Muslims wanting to shut down churches in this country, and yet you see these evangelical Christians wanting to shut down mosques,” Mr El-Leissy told Channel 7.

“I’d ask you - who’s the radical here?”

City of Casey Planning Manager Duncan Turner said the matter would be considered at a future meeting of council before “mid-2016”.

“Council considers all planning applications upon their own planning merits and as such it is not appropriate to make comment on the Facebook page,” he said.

Cr Crestani told Star News that RUAP was not “fighting the mosque through me” and said she had no conflict of interest.

“No matter of my faith persuasion or my political persuasion, my end result is whether this is going to help the community or harm it,” she said.

The mosque furore comes after Cr Crestani presented a 51-signature petition in January calling for a review of the process which saw plans approved for another Islamic school, this one to be built at the former Doveton North Primary School site in Rowan Drive.

The Saarban Islamic Trust did not respond to questions from Star News.

Clampdown on bad councillors

THE daughter of a rape, murder victim has put her full support behind a bold new Coalition Bill taking the power away from convicted killers.

Last week, the State Opposition unveiled proposed new laws that would prevent convicted killers from receiving parole if they refuse to reveal the location of the body of the victims.

Cranbourne woman Janine Greening heads the Victoria Homicide Victims Support Group’s Forget Me Not Foundation - set on supporting those left behind in murder, homicide and missing persons’ cases.

Some were adults when they went missing, others thought to have vanished due to foul play were children - but all leave behind a web of tragically torn friends and family left forever wondering.

“I can only imagine what a nightmare that would be. Every one of us would like to have the body of our loved one to put them to rest in a place we know,” Ms Greening said.

“These people are all stuck at that point in time when their loved one last went out the door.

“It’s horrific to think killers can have that power over them.”

Ms Greening’s mother, Marie Greening Zidan, 70, was sexually assaulted and killed by two minors in her Seaford home in 2000.

Her intellectually disabled son cowered in terror in the corner of the room as the killers, then aged 15 and 16, took the great-grandmother’s life.

Ms Greening was down the street as the horror unfolded.

But horror does not begin to describe the 15-year ordeal she has been through - though Ms Greening said it would have undoubtedly been worse if her mother’s

THE State Government has sent out a warning to all local councils as new misconduct laws take effect this week.

Under amendments to the Local Government Act passed last year, councils now have a greater authority to deal with councillor misconduct internally including new and improved procedures to address alleged code of conduct breaches.

The changes empower councils and the government to take action against councillors doing the wrong thing.

Allegations of misconduct and serious misconduct will be dealt with by independent Councillor Conduct Panels which will have the power to suspend councillors for up to six months.

Councillors retain a right of appeal to VCAT but can no longer bypass Councillor Conduct Panels and have hearings moved to VCAT before a final decision is made.

Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins said: “When one bad apple does the wrong thing” it is important that there are “quick and robust processes in place to deal with misconduct”.

“Standards of council governance in Victoria are higher than they have ever been before thanks to the Labor Government’s new laws,” she said.

No body: no parole

Janine Greening wants justice for those grieving the loss of a loved one by murder or homicide. 150802 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Shadow Minister for Community Safety, Corrections and Police Edward O’Donohue introduced a Private Member’s Bill into the Legislative Council on Wednesday 24 February.

“Families have a right to bury their loved ones and they should decide the resting place, not convicted killers,” he said.

body was taken.

“Of course it would have been (harder). Murder is murder. But to not have the body and be able to bury it ... that would be horrific.

“It is very important to have the body and have a place to grieve. To be denied that, it’s horrific.”

“The Liberal Nationals Coalition believes that the rights of victims and their loved ones should be at the heart of the justice system and that criminals should be held to account for their crimes.”

The early parole conditions also relate to convicted killers withholding other forms of critical information in a murder or homicide case.

Car teens behind bars

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD and GEORGIA WESTGARTH AT LEAST 19 teenagers have been processed by police in the last fortnight as the spate of home invasions and luxury car thefts across Casey and Dandenong ramps up.

Twelve of these youths have been remanded in custody, with police investigating at least 30 burglaries in Melbourne’s outer south-east over the last two weeks.

It’s understood almost all of the youths are teenagers.

A police spokesman told Star News it was “rare” to find anyone aged 20 or older involved in the burglaries, where brazen thieves break into occupied homes and steal car keys from a bench.

Last week it was reported that a series of car thefts occurred between Friday 19 and Saturday 20 February and spanned Keysborough, Berwick, Narre Warren South and Wheelers Hill.

Detective Sergeant Ivan Bobetic from the Dandenong Embona Taskforce said last week that investigations into the car thefts and possible links to the notorious

'apex gang' remained ongoing.

“It’s certainly an avenue of inquiry - it appears the ‘apex gang’ is so widespread now, however to categorise them as a group or gang is folly at this point in time, it’s just something that we’ve got in the back of our minds and are exploring as part of the investigation,” Det Sgt Bobetic said.

“This type of offending has been occurring for 18 months to two years but not all are related to this group of offenders.”

While those processed in recent weeks are all under 18 years of age, Det Sgt Bo-

betic said a range of different groups and ages were involved in the burglaries to some degree.

“A lot of them are known to each other,” he said.

“The level of violence and lack of contrition is alarming for their ages - it seems they have no concept of what they are doing, conscience for the victims or they simply don’t care.”

Anyone with any information in relation to this series of offences is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

A SINGLE gunshot was fired into a Hallam dental clinic this month.

The bullet was shot into the front window of the Arcadia Avenue clinic sometime between 19 and 22 February.

No apologies for $58,000 trip NARRE Warren North MP Luke Donnellan said he makes “no apology” for going on a $58,000 trip to Europe funded by the taxpayer.

According to a report in the Australian, which cites documents posted on the Department of Economic Development website, Mr Donnellan, also the state’s Roads and Ports Minister, and his chief of staff accrued costs of $58,168 on their European trip which included visits to England and Sweden.

This reportedly consisted of $30,000 on airfares and $17,000 in accommodation.

The 11-day trip in September also included a threeday cycling tour in The Netherlands, which was criticised recently by the Opposition.

It’s understood Mr Donnellan’s London visit was to see integrated transport planning and address a road safety forum, while the Swedish leg was also for road safety talks.

Mr Donnellan said there was “no better place” to apply what he learnt in Europe than in his Narre Warren North electorate.

“International travel can provide highly beneficial insights that we can use here in Victoria, such as how we might make our roads safer

and how we continue to cater for our growing city and state as our roads get busier,” Mr Donnellan said.

“There’s no better place to apply what I learnt in Europe than in my electorate, which has seen one of the fastest growing populations in Melbourne in recent years.

“I don’t intend to travel overseas on a regular basis, but I make no apology for bringing what I learnt from this trip back home and applying it here in the southeast and in other key areas of this city and state to ensure that Victoria remains a great place to live.”

BERWICK Primary School students are on the ‘moove’.

The school is gearing up to send their lifesized fibreglass cow ‘Hilda’ on a special excursion to the big smoke this week, as part of the 2016 Melbourne Food and Wine Festival.

Hilda is part of the Picasso Cows program, a Dairy Australia classroom initiative which aims to help kids discover the health and nutritional benefits of dairy foods.

As part of the program, students were tasked with painting their ‘blank canvas’ cow according to three curriculum-linked themes.

The Berwick Primary School cow is one of just a handful of Picasso Cows selected for the festival.

Charity turns full circle

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE irony was too much for Zoe - she couldn’t stop the tears from falling.

It was May 2010 and the 29-year-old from Endeavour Hills was visiting her Greek relatives in Athens, a mere two weeks after she had been diagnosed with multiple sclerosis.

Soon her uncle dug out an old Dandenong Journal article, cut from a 1988 edition.

Although the paper had yellowed with time, there was something timeless about the photo of 19-month-old Zoe AngouriasVerlin showing a beaming smile and clutching a teddy bear almost the same size as she was.

The article was about one-year-old Zoe taking part in a baby show fund-raiser - for multiple sclerosis.

“I cried, I actually cried, because it was so ironic,” Zoe told Star News this week.

Almost three decades after she took part in one fund-raiser, Zoe will be participating in another when she has her hair cut for the World’s Greatest Shave.

Zoe sees it as the least she can do. She knows what it feels like to be diagnosed with an illness that changes one’s whole outlook on life.

When the left side of her body went numb six years ago, Zoe was convinced she had a brain tumour.

The truth - MS - wasn’t any better.

“It’s changed a lot of things, I’m constantly on medication,” she said.

“It’s the little things, it’s unpredictable.

I don’t know if I’m going to wake up tomorrow and feel great or wake up and my legs don’t work.”

When Zoe spoke to Star News on Thursday, her right eye has been blurry for three weeks.

“I have constant battles with fatigue and numbness,” she said.

“I have difficulty walking, I have to

As if that wasn’t enough, Zoe can’t feel her finger tips at all.

But what she can feel is the ongoing support from her family, including her husband Anthony, her seven-year-old daughter Andie, and her mum Andrea.

And until he died from lung cancer in 2012, Zoe’s father, Nick, was a constant source of inspiration.

“He was my life,” she said of her dad.

Now despite her fight with MS and the constant day-to-day battles it produces, Zoe is using her life to help others through the World’s Greatest Shave.

Freedom for a new dad

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A BERWICK ice addict found with an “Aladdin’s cavern” of more than 140 stolen items at his home will be released from jail in time to witness the birth of his first child.

Yianni Poulos, 26, was arrested after a Casey CIU raid of his home on 24 November uncovered the loot, a court has heard.

It included 22 watches, 15 laptops, several phones and tablets, passports, gift cards and membership cards.

Poulos pleaded guilty on 29 February to numerous property crimes, including burglary, theft, handling stolen goods and the proceeds of crime.

The accused made “some admissions” during a police interview but claimed he’d found most of the items from hard rubbish or he’d bought them from a friend, the court heard.

Police prosecutor Leading Senior Constable Tim Barlow said Poulos shared the raided house with his pregnant partner, who was a co-accused. Another co-accused had been jailed, the court heard.

Poulos and a co-offender were accused of stealing from homes, a home garage, a taxi, a Xavier College campus and a car over October and November.

The reported losses included

clothes, laptops, an in-car navigator, a Playstation 4, a wallet, passports and other personal ID. In January, he stole a custom-made surfboard from the back of a ute and pawned it to Cash Converters for $100.

On another occasion, he tried to sell jewellery stolen from a Berwick house on Facebook.

Some of the stolen items were recovered during the police raid.

Poulos also pleaded guilty to a petrol drive-off in Springvale South on 19 January; he admitted stealing the vehicle with NSW plates from Noble Park three days earlier.

Inside the car, police found several tools including a drill and air compressor. A bag of crystal meth was found in Poulos’s jocks.

Some of the crime was committed after Poulos was placed on a community corrections order on 11 November.

Poulos’s lawyer said the accused was now “clean” from his ice habit after spending the past 39 days in custody.

The court heard Poulos had had a “promising career” on a dairy farm, where he had been introduced to ice.

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said the “enormous” amount of stolen property and ID had

“great meaning” to the owners and was often difficult to replace.

“The amount of property was an Aladdin’s cavern. There would be tens of thousands of dollars here.”

Mr Vandersteen said he would hand down a 60-day jail term, including time served in custody.

It meant Poulos would be released on 21 March, a month before he and his partner’s baby was due.

The judge noted Poulos’s impending fatherhood and supportive family were “protective” factors that reduced the chances of re-offending.

“If you don’t change, your son will be speaking to someone like me here in 15 years’ time.

“If that’s the road you want him to go down, keep going on your merry way.”

The judge indicated Poulos would serve a lengthy community corrections order of at least 18 months on his release, due to the inadequacy of the jail term.

“I could be giving eight to 12 months easily, including an immediate term.”

Poulos was ordered to undergo a community corrections assessment ahead of final sentencing at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 1 March.

CONSTRUCTION UPDATE 03 Council welcomes boost for library The City of Casey is excited to share that it has received $750,000 in funding towards construction of the community library at Bunjil Place!

Awarded through the Victorian Government’s Living Libraries Infrastructure program, which aims to improve Victorian public library facilities, Council is thrilled to receive the maximum grant available.

The much-needed funding will enhance visitor experiences and interactions in the library.

It will guarantee the quality of the multi-story open plan spaces and the specialised outdoor reading garden, providing an accessible library that will adapt to the needs of the community.

This is a major boost for the community; giving this beloved and popular service the support it needs to continue providing valuable learning and cultural opportunities for Casey’s residents and visitors.

Teal touch to morning tea

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD OVARIAN Cancer was the main topic of discussion at a Berwick hospital this week.

The colour teal could be seen everywhere at St John of God during the Ovarian Cancer Awareness Day held at the hospital on Wednesday 24 February.

An afternoon tea, attended by hospital caregivers and obstetrician Dr Rudy Lopes, helped spread awareness of the disease - while teal-coloured cakes and treats were available to sweettooths seeking to help fund the cause.

According to statistics, ovarian cancer kills more than 50 per cent of the almost 1500 women diagnosed with the illness each year.

David W Bull Funeral Directors Provide understanding care and personal service.

Australian owned family business since 1979.

ALMOST every visitor to Australia is greatly impressed by the cleanliness of our cities.

Littering is strictly prohibited, household rubbish is placed in big garbage bins that are emptied within 24 hours.

But, unfortunately, all these glamorous aspects are gradually disappearing in some of our cities.

In the City of Casey, for example, the way in which hard waste is collected is very bad.

Residents are encouraged to leave their hard rubbish for days outside on nature strips before collection. As everybody knows the environment has become a daily topic of conversation worldwide and schoolchildren are taught about the protection of the environment and the fight against pollution.

According to council, though, “all hard rubbish should be placed out for collection

by Sunday night on the weekend before your scheduled collection week”.

In reality, however, the ugly sights on the nature strips remain for at least three weeks before collection. One may wonder why Casey council doesn’t follow the good example of some other councils in Victoria where residents of a pre-designated area or ward are asked to put their hard rubbish out for collection within 24 or 48 hours.

Undoubtedly, it would be wise for Casey council to review its policy regarding hard rubbish collection in order to spare all residents of such a permanent eyesore.

Eliezer Francois, Endeavour Hills.

Breaking boundaries THE Victorian Electoral Commission is currently conducting a review of the electoral boundaries for the City of Casey.

Under their plan, 9214 voters will be moved out of the wards that they are currently in.

I have made a submission to the VEC detailing how the number of voters affected can be almost halved and will be speaking about it at the public hearing at 6.30pm on Wednesday 9 March at the Old Shire Office (160 Sladen Street, Cranbourne).

The electoral boundaries need to remain relatively constant for us to be able to hold our councillors accountable.

CASEY councillor Damien Rosario was elected this year’s chairman of the Casey-Cardinia Library Corporation.

He hopes to link local schools with the online resources the libraries offer and promote community awareness.

“Schools can use these resources in classrooms for free,” he said.

“As a councillor I am facilitating conversations between school principals and the libraries.”

This week Star News also learnt a little bit about Cr Rosario’s fashion sense.

Opting for a man bag, his style choice is a Star Trek themed leather, across the shoulder.

Star News hopes this bag will live long and prosper.

A MAN recently felt the wrath of Dandenong Drug Court after bringing some of his stash to the courthouse.

The man, who is on a drug treatment courtorder, arrived at court with a mints tin con-

taining drug “residue” a defence lawyer told a judge.

He realised his mistake and threw the tin in a bin outside the court prior to being screened by court security.

Unluckily for him, an alert PSO retrieved the tin and arrested the man.

DANDENONG Magistrates’ Court dock and two custody officers were not enough to restrain one highly agitated offender.

The accused’s bail application came to an abrupt halt when he barrelled through the dock’s gate, bursting into the public gallery.

Fortunately, two police officers were in the courtroom and offered immediate reinforcement.

There was some doubt over whether the accused would find the inner calm to resume his quest for bail.

TWO Cranbourne stalwarts were warmly congratulated for their long-standing service to the community last month.

Retiring couple Barbara Maggs and Tony Jenner were acknowledged by Balla Balla Ward councillor Geoff Ablett at the February council meeting.

“A huge congratulations to Barbara Maggs and Tony Jenner on their retirement from organising the Cranbourne Christmas Motorcycle toy and food run for the past 31 years, delivering to those in need in our local community,” Cr Ablett said.

“You’re both champions!”

IT EMERGED at a function this week that Casey Mayor Sam Aziz was a contestant in a 1989 English speaking contest where former weather man Rob Gell was the MC. The pair were reunited in Devon Meadows at the Australian Fresh Leaf greenhouse launch on Wednesday 2 March.

“Sam was a student then... never mind,” Rob trailed off, realising he was showing his age.

But Cr Aziz told him: “You only seem to be getting younger.”

Bailed far from home A CASEY man accused of family violence has been bailed interstate, partly to give protection to his former spouse and two children.

The 32-year-old man, who was facing assault and breach-of-bail charges, will be bailed to live with his brother and uncle in Adelaide.

The man’s brother had driven to Dandenong Magistrates’ Court for the 29 February hearing, and was set to drive back home with the accused that night.

Among the man’s alleged offences on 6 February was threatening to hit his 10-year-old daughter if she spoke to police, the court heard.

At one stage, the wife and children allegedly removed themselves from the house and hid in a McDonald’s toilet at 3am.

“That decline in (the perpetra-

tor’s) behaviour is usually attributable to drugs or alcohol,” Mr Vandersteen said.

The man had issues with alcohol, type-two diabetes and was taking anti-psychotic medication, though he had no diagnosed mental illness, the court was told.

The accused was arrested again on 10 February when he attended the house in breach of bail.

“He was saying he had nowhere else to go,” the man’s lawyer said.

“He was sleeping in the park.

He was apologising rather than making any further threats.”

Since his arrest, the man had been remanded in custody for 19 days - an “unpleasant experience” including a period of 23-hour-aday lockdown at Melbourne Remand Centre.

Informant Senior Constable Mark Muckley, of Narre Warren

police, argued that the man, while on bail, was likely to re-attend the family home because he had limited ties to the rest of the community.

The man’s lawyer said the move to Adelaide “removes the realistic probability that he reoffends”.

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen initially stated he never bailed people interstate.

He was at first sceptical that the court could even compel the payment of a surety from interstate.

Mr Vandersteen noted the man had family support, no prior offences and was “not certain” of being sentenced to further jail.

The bail conditions included complying with a full intervention order that barred contact with the man’s wife and children.

“You realise one phone call will lead you back to custody,” Mr

Vandersteen warned.

“There is concern that you’re outside the jurisdiction. There is a benefit that you’re away from your wife and children.

“There are ways and means for us to extradite people in your position should you breach bail. But I accept you don’t want to go back to jail.”

The accused was bailed on a $1000 surety from his brother, who is unemployed, taking English language classes and vowed to deliver the accused to the Dandenong court for hearings.

The man was ordered to report to Hindley police in South Australia three times a week and not to leave Australia.

He is set to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 21 March.

‘Not on our walls’, Casey tells taggers

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD and GEORGIA WESTGARTH CASEY Council has launched an online petition to tackle tagging across the municipality.

Council has long waged a war against the graffiti artists who adorn Casey’s freeway overpasses and signage with their spray paint tags, and now the City of Casey hopes its new Clean Up Your Act campaign steps it up a notch.

Local residents are being urged to sign the new petition which requests the State Government prioritise removing tags that plague

VicRoads’ controlled signage and noise barriers along the Monash Freeway (Hallam Bypass) and railway bridges controlled by VicTrack.

The online petition automatically sends an email to Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan and Roads Minister Luke Donnellan, who is also the Narre Warren North MP. Earlier this month Star News reported on how Casey Council was also planning to erect signs over graffiti-ridden VicRoads property to encourage motorists to make a complaint call to get the streets cleaned up.

“The Monash Freeway and the Hallam Bypass, which is the gateway to our city, looks like downtown New York in the 1970s,” Casey mayor Sam Aziz told Star News at the time.

“And here we are working hard to build beautiful neighbourhoods and VicRoads don’t want to lift a finger, even though it’s their responsibility - we won’t stop until it gets fixed.”

Acting Metro South East regional director at VicRoads Vince Punaro said graffiti which was deemed offensive got “prioritised depending

Keep it calm HOLT MP Anthony Byrne has warned people against using “inflammatory and derogatory” language in the debate about the Safe Schools program.

Last week Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull ordered an independent review of the taxpayer-funded program - aimed at helping lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans and/or intersex (LGBTI) school students - after its manual came under attack from right-wing politicians and the Australian Christian Lobby.

Former Prime Minister Tony Abbott Tuesday called for the program to be axed.

Mr Byrne, who convened a well-publicised summit on youth suicide in Casey in 2012, urged people to be wary of the language they used when discussing the program, days after Coalition MP George Christensen likened the Safe Schools initiative to grooming undertak-

en by sexual predators.

“It is critical in any debate about this issue that inflammatory and derogatory language not be used,” Mr Byrne said.

“Words can literally kill.

“Any debate about this program must be temperate and take into account the suffering and anguish of those whom the Safe Schools program seeks to help.”

A number of Casey schools are signed up to the Safe Schools program, including Cranbourne Secondary College, Fountain Gate Secondary College, Hallam Senior College and Oatlands Primary School in Narre Warren.

“I have met with young people dealing with gender identity and same sex relationship issues who tell me of the bullying they have experienced and heard of the attempts of self-harm that this bullying precipitated,” Mr Byrne said.

While Berwick Lodge Primary School is not part of the program, its principal Henry Grossek said the Safe School initiative was a “positive move” and could see his school joining up “down the track”.

“I think Safe Schools is a positive move, I think it’s one that’s new and breaking new ground, there’s a lot of community apprehension about it, because it does touch a sensitive area for a lot of people,” he said.

“Gender is a sensitive area, one that people hold strong views on, starting to dialogue on that can be awkward.

“I think teachers and principals have a lot to learn in a constructive way because we’ve not done it before.”

For more information on the Safe Schools program, visit www.safeschoolscoalition.org. au. Those in need of immediate assistance can phone Lifeline on 13 11 14.

Car wash burglary bid fails

1202687-PB45-15

POLICE are on the lookout for three offenders who used an angle grinder and a jemmy bar in an attempt to open a security door at a Cranbourne car wash.

Cruise Car Spa on the South Gippsland Highway in Cranbourne was targeted by thieves on Monday 1 February at 4.50am.

A female and male offender and an unknown third offender parked a silver Hyundai SUV

with false registration plates, SWP 154, before getting tools out in an attempted burglary. The third offender kept a look out while the other two grinded the door.

The security alarm was set off in the process and the three offenders made off in the SUV. The female was wearing bright pink Adidas runners at the time of the incident.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Trivia to fund kidney fight

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD MICHAEL Marks and his family know how devastating kidney failure can be.

In 2014 renal failure saw Michael suffer from two cardiac arrests, stopping his heart for 35 minutes during which the Hampton Park man was declared clinically dead.

Luckily during this incident, Michael was already at the hospital, and doctors were able to save his life, but the 50-year-old has been constantly reminded of his frailty as he waits desperately on the transplant list for a new kidney.

In the meantime, Michael, his wife Sandra, and their sons Paul and Shayne have been working tirelessly to seek support for a special trivia night fund-raiser they are holding on Saturday 5 March, in conjunction with Kidney Health Australia.

But the four of them have found it incredibly difficult to get local business on board, which has spurred Michael on to raise awareness about the terrible nature of kidney failure.

“Every time we go looking for donations from different companies, we keep getting the same response - ‘I’ve given to the cancer people’ or I’ve given

to the heart people’,” Michael said.

“We feel as if the people who have got renal failure, kidney failure, are being overlooked.”

Michael is not undermining the seriousness and the benefits of cancer and heart fundraisers, he just wants to ensure patients suffering from kidney disease are afforded attention as well.

“I’d just like to see awareness get out there in the community,” he said.

“If you can’t get awareness, you can’t get a cure and if you can’t get a cure, people die.

“It’s a pretty simple scenario.”

It was simple for Michael when he was diagnosed with kidney failure two years ago.

For him, the difference between life and death is dialysis treatment as he waits on the transplant list, a wait he’s already endured for 18 months and one he’s told can take up to five years.

Michael undergoes dialysis treatment at the Cranbourne Integrated Car Unit three days a week, for five hours at a time.

“They pump the blood out and clean it and put it back into your body,” Michael said.

“People don’t understand

the implications that renal failure has.”

Michael was first diagnosed with kidney failure in 2014 and since then his life has been a compromise.

Among many concessions, Michael is restricted to only doing paper work for his gardening business, as he is now unable to do the physical work he once relished.

“I can’t sustain any longterm activities, if I was to go for a walk, instead of half an hour I’m lucky to do five minutes,” he said.

“Any strenuous physical work and I’m done for the day.”

However, while his physical prowess has been diminished by the disease, the same can’t be said for Michael’s mental strength.

“It’s made me realise you’ve ‘gotta live life to the fullest you can’t just turn around and take things for granted,” he said.

The Kidney Health Trivia Night will be held this Saturday 5 March at the Village Green Hotel in Mulgrave from 6.30pm.

Tickets can be bought at the door, and to get involved with the event contact Paul Marks on 0458 454 427, or send an email to trivianight.kh@iinet.net.au.

Wendy loves balance.

Get a life balance

1212998-EB03-16

I LOVE Balance at Narre Warren is the brain-child of Wendy Anastasi and has opened in a new space at Victor Crescent.

Wendy has been in the fitness industry for 22 years and during that time has been a personal trainer and has run group fitness classes, yoga classes, Pilates classes, kids’ yoga classes and workshops.

And so for this reason I Love Balance will offer everything from yoga classes and breathing techniques for relaxation and meditation, Pilates, one-onone classes, workshops, kids’ yoga, information and recipes

for health, tips on time management and getting started on a healthy and fit lifestyle.

“I wish to nurture - to inspire people to be the best that they can be with my experience of more than 22 years in the industry,” Wendy said.

“I believe that I provide a non-judgemental and caring, safe, none competitive environment where I can cater for all students from beginners to advanced.

“The focus of my business is to help you balance your life and give yourself permission to shine by looking after your

body and your mind.

“I believe that age is no barrier and that as we get older it is very important to address weaknesses and to work on our balance to live the life that we deserve.

“Also stress management is very important to all of us.”

To celebrate her move to the new space, Wendy will be offering an unlimited pass to all classes on her timetable for March for $100.

I Love Balance is at Suit 5a, Level 1, 58-60 Victor Crescent, Narre Warren.

21st Century students need to be creative, lexible, independent thinkers, hence the curriculum at Rivercrest utilises an inquiry learning approach, with students as active partners in their learning. There is a strong environmental focus within the curriculum, with Information Technology being fully integrated into the learning experience.

In 2016, year levels include Early Learning for 3 & 4 year olds, Prep, Year 1, Year 2 and Year 3. Expressions of interest for a second Year 4 class are being sought for 2017.

Clyde R

Students are encouraged to be respectful, compassionate, lateral thinkers, who, although prepared to challenge prevailing ideas, will also be relective and sensitive. They will be people who are able to communicate efectively and work collaboratively with others. They will be challenged to become globally-minded citizens who epitomise Christ’s commission to love and serve others.

Berwick Show boots up

By KATHRYN BERMINGHAM CROWDS poured through the gates of Akoonah Park over the weekend to enjoy the 2016 Berwick Show.

This year’s event had something for everyone from rides and face painting to an exciting array of food, the traditional agricultural and horticultural competitions, displays, performances and even a fun run.

In fact, according to show president Andy Fyfe, it is the show’s broad appeal that attracts such impressive crowds year after year.

“In the end, if you have a nice day weatherwise, all the attractions are here,” he said.

“We’ve got live stuff in the arena, we’ve got rides if you want to go on rides.

“I think, first and foremost, agriculture is what it’s all about.

“It’s an agricultural and horticultural show and everything is based around that so while we can still entice animals to come here, that will keep it going.”

Mr Fyfe, along with the rest of the show committee, joined local politicians, councillors and select exhibitors at the show lunch on Saturday 27 February.

He said the success of the show was the culmination of months of planning and preparation.

“It’s nice to see it finished because a lot of people worked very hard to get this result.”

As always, the action centred around the main arena where Saturday’s attractions included FMCX motorbikes, whip cracking, mountain boarding, a gumboot throw, the truck pull, a display of medieval jousting and a fire show.

A spectacular fireworks display capped off the show’s first day and kept crowds at the event well into the night.

The arena schedule was similarly packed on Sunday when mountain boarders, motorcyclists

Also on the agenda were dog jumping and the 2016 Berwick Show Fun Run - a 10 or 5km run held in support of the YMCA’s Open Doors program.

There was judging all of Saturday and Sunday in the livestock sheds while members of the Waverley Spinners and Weavers Group demonstrated spinning, weaving and felting.

Visitors came from across Melbourne to make the most of the warm weather and exciting program, including Warrandyte’s Lucy Turner.

“It’s a great size and it’s got a bit of everything,” she said.

“I’ll definitely be back.”

WELCOME TO THE NEIGHBOURHOOD FROM PAGE 1.

BERWICK has a new neighbour that’s already proving popular with families drawn to contemporary home design, genuine community, extensive parklands and leisure facilities, and serious amenity - the Meridian development at Thompson Road, Clyde North.

Meridian is the latest contribution to the booming municipality of Casey by the Brown Property Group. The company has been creating well-planned, amenity-rich communities for more than 40 years, and is best known locally for developments like The Avenue at Casey and Highgrove.

Its vision for Meridian is to build on the 125-hectare site’s character and sense of place, capitalising on already strong links to local wetlands, open spaces and parklands views across Berwick to the Dandenongs.

Meridian is located moments from Berwick and close to the Princes Freeway, a variety of schools and tertiary institutions, transport links, shops, regional open spaces and a full range of local amenities. It combines easy access to established facilities with all the benefits of contemporary master planning.

For residents that means, tree-lined streets that go well beyond the ‘greenfields

norm’, a network of pedestrian and cycle paths that encourage more activity more often, wetlands that are easily accessed for all kinds of interaction, and parks packed with leisure facilities that can be used year-round for sport, play, fitness and social gatherings.

Residents of Meridian will have a range of lot options to choose from, including elevated sites that offer some impressive vistas over the surrounding landscape. The vibrant design palette draws on contemporary materials with classic, timeless appeal. Connection to the natural environment is at the heart of this development. A cleverly planned

network of neighbourhood parks, shared trails, open spaces and wetlands offers residents endless scope for socialising, exercising, resting and recharging in the great outdoors.

Meridian will ultimately be home to 1600 households and features 29 hectares of parks and open spaces, 4.8 hectares of active wetlands, a mix of gently undulating and elevated sites with panoramic views, and a business precinct that’s a boon to residents keen to work locally.

For more information or to register your interest for the Meridian community visit www.meridianclyde.com.au

MEGASAURUS PARK SET TO OPEN WITH A ROAR AT LIVINGSTON JOIN the family fun and free entertainment at the official opening of the new dinosaur themed Megasaurus Park at Peet’s Livingston community in Cranbourne East this weekend.

Kids will love this exciting new playground which features an impressive skeletal dinosaur climbing frame along with all the latest in outdoor play equipment including slide, cradle swing, climbing scales and zip line.

To celebrate the launch of the new park, Peet is hosting a free twilight screening of the original 1994 Jurassic Park movie (rated PG) on

Saturday 5 March.

Families are invited to come along from 6pm to explore and play in the new playground, bring a picnic blanket or grab a deck chair, and enjoy the complimentary popcorn, fairy floss, slushies, mini burgers, chips and drinks before the screening starts at 7pm.

Peet Limited managing director and CEO Brendan Gore said the event will be a great opportunity for the community to come and experience the new park for themselves.

“Megasaurus Park is an exciting

addition to the recreational amenity at Livingston,” said Mr Gore.

“Livingston is a community that has been designed with families in mind,” he added “with more than 10 hectares of open space and beautiful parklands planned to offer a convenient and enjoyable lifestyle for residents.”

With close to 600 lots now sold and only three new land releases to come - now is the time to visit Livingston, explore the community and experience the Livingston life first-hand.

Buyers looking to join the Livingston

community can choose from the great range of lots and house and land packages currently available.

This weekend also marks the last chance to enter Peet’s competition to win a family Gold Coast theme park holiday.

Simply visit the Livingston Display Village before 5pm on Sunday 6 March and enter the draw for the chance to win this fun-filled prize which includes flights, accommodation, transfers and entry into Movie World, Sea World and Wet ‘n Wild.

Hi-tech herbs on the way

By CASEY NEILL A DEVON Meadows farm is leading an agri-tech revolution and increasing its yields by 75 per cent.

Australian Fresh Leaf unveiled a new greenhouse on Wednesday 2 March, complete with cloud technology.

Television screens guide employees on exactly when and what herbs to plant, pick and pack.

The herbs are growing on Dutch-designed rolling benches that can be pushed together to increase planting space, and rolled into an adjoining shed so employees can harvest the herbs at the one location.

Australian Fresh Leaf co-founder Jan Vydra said the company started out producing 2000 bunches of herbs each week.

Today it produces 150,000 bunches, pots and punnets of 60 different varieties of herbs, edible flowers and Australian natives.

Mr Vydra credited a “persistence to challenge the norm and look for a better way to do things”.

“In 2008, we ducked out of our corporate jobs and took a bit of a risk, and our vision was to be the leader in the horticulture industry, to grow beautiful herbs and to evolve farming practices by using sustainable practices and innovative practices,” he said.

“We have bold plans.

“We want to expand our operations over the next 12 to 18 months to open a new 30,000 square metre new facility, hopefully in the City of Casey, and expand into New South Wales over the next three to five years.”

Mr Vydra said the greenhouse happened with help from a $430,000 interest-free loan through the Coles Nurture Fund.

Coles managing director John Durkan said this was the first Nurture Fund project completed.

“This is really why we started the fund,” he said.

Mr Durkan praised the “new technology and new efficiencies” implemented and said Mr Vydra had to “take a risk, be bold and innovative” to make the project happen.

“This is transformational for our herb business,” he said.

City of Casey Mayor Sam Aziz said the project was a prime example of the innovation that the Casey Cardinia Region actively encouraged.

He said the evolution of “agri-tech” would bring IT professionals, programmers and scientists onto farms.

“This new era of farming welcomes forward-thinking businesses,” he said.

Business profile

Kinder room for Eco Kids THIS month Eco Kids Early Learning Centre on Pound Road will enjoy its 6th year of operation, caring for and educating children in Hampton Park.

This month also sees the completion of a newly built kinder room for the service, allowing them to increase their capacity and offer a separate funded kinder program alongside their long day care.

“It’s been a long time in the planning, so it’s fabulous to see our new Kinder room completed and ready to accommodate young eager minds in play and learning” explained Jennifer Sutherland, centre co-ordinator and licensee.

“The children have actually quite enjoyed the process and there’s been a lot to watch over the past few months. Many of our older children (3-5 year olds) have also been involved in the planning of their new environments both indoors and out, sharing their ideas and deciding on the elements

that are most important in their play and learning.

It’s been an invaluable learning experience for all involved.”

Eco Kids ELC has also introduced Kids Xap™, an all in one software platform for their staff and families. This platform will increase transparency and visibility for the families by keeping them up to date with their child’s activities in real time via handy smart phone apps.

Parents can now receive photos, activity updates, send absence requests, notes, medication requests and keep up to date with fees and statements. Christina Marz, clients services executive at Xap Technologies explained - “Kids Xap™ helps increase interaction with parents and improves efficiency and productivity among staff.

It’s a complete childcare management solution with 100+ features available for all childcare centres around Australia for FREE." “Our parents are already enjoying the benefits

of Kids Xap, we couldn’t be happier,” added Mrs Sutherland.

“At Eco Kids we don’t offer free laptops or any other gimmicks. What we do offer is quality, nurturing care and education that is catered to the needs of our families and at an affordable price. Besides the luxury of premium food and a chemical-free environment, we also offer many extra curriculum features such as weekly Pilates classes, Kelly Sports classes, and music sessions,” she explained.

Jennifer encourages anyone looking for a quality childcare or kinder program to drop in and take a tour and discuss their needs. A limited number of funded kinder places for 2016 are still available.

Eco Kids Early Learning Centre is situated at 286 Pound Road, Hampton Park, telephone 8774 2262.

A MAN hobbled by illness has been declared a risk to the community after pleading guilty to his latest arson and drink-driving offences.

Murray Craw, 55, of Dandenong, who is fighting prostate cancer and type-two diabetes, wore a beanie as he pushed a wheeler into his Port Phillip Prison court link on 29 February.

He had been in custody for 82 days, facing his ninth drinkdriving offence, 13th for driving while suspended and fourth arson-related charge.

Among his recent charges was setting a dump master skip full of cardboard alight at the back of a Hampton Park servo about 3.15am on 9 December.

According to a police summary presented at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court, Craw set the blaze with a cigarette lighter, stepped back and lit a cigarette.

He then walked away.

While waiting for a bus in Traralgon West on 6 June, Craw lit a large pile of rubbish behind the bus shelter on Princes Highway.

ported the fire, Craw walked out from behind the shelter and boarded the 7.40am bus to Morwell.

CCTV footage on the bus showed a large fire continuing to burn as the bus drove on.

Firefighters confined the fire damage to a 1.5-metre by 0.5 metre area, without it catching the wooden and metal bus shelter or road reserve.

During a police field interview, Craw said he lit the fire because he was cold, admitting he didn’t extinguish it before he left.

On 20 September, Craw ran a red light and crashed into a pregnant driver at the corner of Princes Highway and Heatherton Road, Noble Park North.

The driver and her passenger were taken by ambulance to Dandenong Hospital for observation.

An uninjured Craw, whose licence was suspended at the time, produced a 0.100 bloodalcohol sample at hospital more than 90 minutes later.

Craw was also charged with stealing a helmet from a parked Vespa on Flinders Street, Melbourne.

The accused returned it when the victim was alerted

by his son: “That dude has got your helmet.”

Craw later complained to police: “How can it be theft, he has got his property back.

“Well, people stole from me while I was in hospital.”

Defence lawyer Bernard Keating said Craw desired to return to his Dandenong boarding house.

“He did trades in New Zealand. He’s lived the life, so it’s more the pity he finds himself in this situation.”

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Craw was “likeable” but a risk to the community if his issues weren’t addressed.

“In my opinion, you’re better on a corrections order than a parole order (when released).

“From what I know of your past, drugs aren’t the issue. It’s the alcohol.”

Craw replied: “Alcohol and putting other people in front of myself.”

Craw requested the Journal “make it known” that it was the “people I have helped” that caused him to go to jail.

He was ordered to undergo a community corrections assessment at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 7 March.

Daunting bipolar battle

By LACHLAN MOORHEAD SOME people may not know they have bipolar disorder because they’ve never been diagnosed.

Loved ones may also battle because they don’t understand the intricacies of the illness.

This week a community information night, convened at Berwick Healthcare by the Melbourne Bipolar Network (MBN), started to address these issues. The night was organised

by Ray Farrelly, a volunteer from the Melbourne Bipolar Network, which has a support group that meets in Berwick monthly.

Moderated by Emma Higgins, a Learning and Development Consultant from Mind Australia, the inaugural Berwick information night included presentations from Psychotropic Drug Advisory Service pharmacist Christine Culhane, Grow Clinic founder and perinatal psychiatrist Adaobi Udechuku and Eastern Health Peer Support co-ordinator Paula Kelly. Bipolar disorder can be traumatic for the friends and family of those with the illness, which can result in episodes of depression and mania and induce a multitude of stresses.

Mr Farrelly said there were more than 3000 people in the City of Casey who suffered from bipolar disorder - 1500 of those reportedly undiagnosed.

“Melbourne’s got 55,000plus people with bipolar disorder and half of them are undiagnosed, so the focus on an evening like this is the undiagnosed and their families and carers,” he said.

“So we’re hoping to get the

Melbourne Bipolar Network volunteer Ray Farrelly with Berwick Healthcare practice manager Cathy Hermans. sort of people who we don’t normally see.

“If we can get them down here, it’s going to help the lousy situation.”

Ms Higgins spoke in detail about the Mind Australia Recovery College, and how healthy discussions of mental illness help break down any stigmas.

“Facilitators like me have lived experience and we’re able to have robust discussions,” she told the room.

“It’s transformational education and insight moments.

“People can be open about what they’re dealing with ... in those open conversations people can often have moments of insight - those lightbulb moments.”

Mr Farrelly, who suffers from bipolar, has worked in the mental health sector for more than decade and is passionate about helping others through education and discussion.

“I had a lot of people help me on my journey, and I started getting involved in the mental

“My motivation is to help people.”

The Melbourne Bipolar Network is a non-profit charity set up in 2008 and run by volunteers, which organises a support group at Berwick Healthcare on the first Tuesday of every month.

Bright future for Bramich

By JARROD POTTER TOM Bramich is revved up for 2016 after a stellar end to his 2015 superbike campaign.

Bramich, 19, from Beaconsfield, did it the hard way to clinch the Honda Moto 3/125GP class of the 2015 Yamaha Motor Finance Australian Superbike Championship, with the final round going down to the wire at Phillip Island in October.

After a shaky start, Bramich reached top gear fast as he excelled across the rounds at Morgan Park, Barbagello, and claimed a perfect three-from-three victories at Symmons Plains.

With those wins and peak placings under his wing, Bramich needed to excel once more in the finale to take the title.

“It was a fairly long season and we didn’t get off to the greatest start, but a couple of the highlights were Western Australia were I got second overall in the points and Tasmania where I won three out of three races,” Bramich said.

“I think going into the round I was two points behind the leader.”

At the three-race final round at Phillip Island, he trailed the category leader Brian Houghton going into the third and final sprint race.

Bramich passed Houghton on lap six, but fell down the order back to third ... requiring a bit of racing heroics late in the day to move back into first as he took the chequered flag in a thrilling threeway finish.

“Complete disbelief and that feeling of success are unexplainable and unimaginable,” Bramich said.

The first race on the Saturday was a bit of a mishap and I came sixth, so he had another eight points on me, then I clawed back a bit.

Tom Bramich capped off 2015 in style, claiming the Moto3 category of the Australian Superbike Championship.

Pictures: LEONIE O CONNOR-BYRNE “I got second in the first race on Sunday and was only two points behind and managed to win the race and win the championship.”

He wants to take his racing to the next level this year, hopefully entering the superbike’s top category if the team can

pool the funds needed to race the series.

“Our plan is to possibly ride a superbike - the premier class in the Australian road racing scene - but currently we’re trying to find financial support to race properly in that category,” Bramich said.

The Bramich boys are excelling on two

wheels with Tom’s younger brother Ben having spent time in Spain late last year trialling for the Red Bull Rookie series.

“Ben is doing really well and kicking goals and I’m trying to do my own thing and make some headway into the more serious racing in the world - at the inter-

national level,” Bramich said.

Bramich wanted to thank his family, friends and race-team sponsors Ron Angel Classing Racing, TinGate Racing, Whinner Motorcycles, Nelsigns, Nolan Helmets and Rock Oil for their amazing support.

Football’s elite high flyers draw monster crowd

By JARROD POTTER SHOWCASING the national game in the south east, Richmond came to Beaconsfield to play with purpose.

The Tigers brought all the big guns to its NAB Challenge clash at Holm Park Reserve on Saturday, as the power-packed list, hungry to impress in 2016, tore-apart the undermanned reigning premiers Hawthorn.

The gulf between the sides was evident to the 6834 fans that streamed to the ground, just to get a glimpse of the Tigers thrashing the Hawks by 71 points.

Richmond’s elite stood tallest and had the touch of class that Hawthorn’s up-and-comers have yet to develop in a decidedly one-sided rampage.

Coleman Medallist Jack Riewoldt stole the show at Beaconsfield, playing on to slot a monster super-goal from outside the 50-metre line at the netball court end.

It started well for the powerhouse forward as he took two huge speccies in the first term, as well as a regulation goal later in the piece to keep the crowd up and about.

From there the Tigers cantered home as Shane Edwards (four goals), Ben Lennon (three goals) and youngster Connor Menadue (two goals) had it on a string up forward.

Bachar Houli (34 touches) and

Richmond speedster Daniel Rioli was another reason for the Tigers faithful to celebrate at Holm Park Reserve. 150749

Cyril Rioli's high flying efforts were short and sweet as the four-time Hawthorn premiership star was rested early. 150749 Pictures: ROB CAREW

Alex Rance (26) ensured Hawthorn had little chance up forward as the defensive duo negated the best efforts of the youthful Hawks, led by standin captain Liam Shiels (20 touches).

For the Hawks, James Sicily and Tim O’Brien put their hands up for senior selection with a goal apiece.

Richmond assistant coach Brendan Lade thought the side’s top brass put their best foot forward, especially

played host to the biggest local day of football in the region’s history.

The second oval was a sea of tiny Richmond supporters before the match as the club ran plenty of activities and painted what seemed like an ambush worth of faces.

Cardinia Shire Mayor Jodie Owen said it was fantastic to be part of the first AFL pre-season clash in the region.

“It was great weather, the reserve

Dustin Martin and the beast that is Jack Riewoldt.

“It was hard to hold him (Riewoldt) back last week - he wanted to play then, but he always wants to play as he’s a competitive animal,” Lade said.

“His first quarter probably set us up and he was pretty good up the ground definitely.”

It wasn’t all about the on-field action though, as the Cardinia Shire

had a great atmosphere and a great crowd,” Cr Owen said. “The game attracted a wonderful mix of die-hard football fans as well as families and groups of friends enjoying the chance to see professional AFL played at their local football oval.

“It was a successful event and we hope we have an opportunity to host another NAB Challenge game next year.”

Soccer booted Stingrays take wayward win for softball

By JARROD POTTER

By JARROD POTTER

Adam Talarico has put his injury woes behind him to excel in his preferred sport - softball. 150211 Picture: JARROD POTTER cause the under-19s is every two years, I missed out on the one previously and this is my top age year of under-19s, so I was lucky enough to make it.

“I was pretty shocked at the start - I didn’t know what to say as I got a phone call and found out before everyone else and had to keep it hush for a couple of days before they announced the team.”

He was picked on the back of an exceptional 2015/'16 softball season, making the Victorian side and also playing in the Friendship Series.

The side will head over for a short practice tournament in Toronto, Canada, in July before heading down to the US to battle the rest of the world.

On top of that, his hopes for softball include a stint in America playing domestic league before returning to Australia to make a big impact in his summer sport.

throw at the Stingrays - while midfielders Courtney Jones (Cranbourne), Emily Browning (Lyndhurst) and Georgia Gee (Beaconsfield) flourished.

Geelong-Western fought to stay alive, booting their only major in the third term with some solid work in the centre rewarded, but in the end Dandenong was a class above in the 6.16 (52) to 1.2 (8) triumph.

Stingrays coach Scott Gowans was pleased with everything except the goal-kicking as he hoped the girls can straighten up and cash in on chances in front of goals.

“Very inaccurate - I think it’s probably a result of playing early games, I have a bit of a belief that the early mornings really affect girls’ footy and especially

the goal-kicking,” Gowans said.

“Nothing you can do, everyone is in the same boat, but I’m just happy they got the opportunities to have those shots on goal.”

The win keeps Dandenong’s chances of qualifying first in the Southern conference alive, now sitting second behind Sandringham heading into the last round against Gippsland this Sunday at Garfield from 5pm.

“The way I predict it I think every team is going to lose one game and that’s why I was a little bit frustrated with the goalkicking,” Gowans said. “But our percentage today will go right up and as long as we finish one or two, which is the goal, it will be right.”

SPENDING a year on the sidelines solidified Adam Talarico’s resolve and pushed him towards the peaks of junior softball.

Talarico, 18, from Berwick, was left to make the toughest decision of his sporting journey - whether he picked soccer or softball - after rupturing his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) playing soccer for the Casey Comets.

Instead of risking his knee to another tackle, Talarico hung up the boots, at least for the time being, to focus on softball instead.

“I was actually playing soccer until two years ago, but then I got injured and it was a pretty serious injury of tearing my ACL,” Talarico said. “I got tackled and had to take a year off from all sports altogether and was only good enough to play again at the start of last year.

That decision has paid off as the powerful shortstop was selected for the Softball Australia under-19 men’s team.

He is set to take on the rest of the world at the upcoming championships in Michigan, USA, later this year, and is thrilled to get his opportunity.

“Because I knew this was coming up, I had to make the decision, and this was more of a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and I doubt I’d get that in soccer, so it helped make the decision,” Talarico said.

He didn’t get a chance to represent Australia at the last World Championships, but is pleased to get the chance this time around in spite of everything he’s gone through.

“It’s been a long process I’ve been in the Aussie squad, a squad of 33, for the last couple of years,” Talarico said. “Be-

YOUTH GIRLS ACADEMY CHALLENGE- ROUND 2 TAKING a big win over Geelong-Western, Dandenong Stingrays Youth Girls kept their challenge campaign alive with an emphatic 44-point victory.

The only downside to the triumph was Dandenong’s woeful goal-kicking, spraying its way to six-goals-16 as the big sticks proved a bigger challenge than the Jets/Falcons combination team.

Dandenong’s worst enemy was its shonky kicking as the second term reaped two-goalssix and the last one-goal-seven to cut down the potential percentage that might have proved useful heading into next week's final home-and-away round.

As opportunities flew frequently for the Stingrays’ girls, Jas Greirson reaped the rewards and showcased her all-round attributes.

She stormed forward this week, after featuring last weekend as centre-half-back against Issy Huntington, but this time around it was Grierson’s turn to shine in the forward-50 on Saturday.

Greirson cut a path through Geelong-Western’s defence in a three-goal best-on-ground haul while Sophie Phillips was just as potent up forward, as the Cranbourne flanker carved up the arc towards the victory.

Defensively the stand-in skipper Jordy Allen was superb - negating just about all attacks Geelong-Western could

Heinz take the win

By JARROD POTTER DDCA TURF 1 REVIEW - ROUND 11 (One Day) HEINZ Southern Districts (125) took a narrow win over Parkfield (119) to sneak in the back door and claim the fourth spot in the Turf 1 finals.

Needing a win and some other results to fall their way, the Cobras struck through to get a second chance at the Turf 1 flag.

In a sweet piece of irony, the Heinz victory helped eliminate Mordialloc, who defeated the Hampton Park-based cricket team in last year’s Turf 1 grand final.

Taking on the batting burden, Trevor Davies (71) stood tall throughout the innings and just about carried his bat. The starring Cobra didn’t have much to work with as only Stephen Milne (16) and Adam Semmens (13) flew the flag alongside him. Davies flayed the Bears’ attack to all parts of Reedy Reserve as his knock set the stage for a decent chase.

The response was harrowing for the hosts, as the Parkfield middle order starting piling on the runs through Matt Aslett (340 and Shaun Nugara (21), but in the end Matt Downe (3/13) and Michael Davies (3/19) ensured the visitors would fall seven short. The victory helps Heinz sneak into the last spot in the semi-finals and book a battle against minor premiers Springvale South this week.

Cranbourne (8/171) saw off Dandenong West (8/145) via an all-round performance off Matt Chasemore (75 and 2/8). The Ea-

Trevor Davies was the deciding factor in Heinz qualifying for finals as he smashed 71 of 125 in Picture: JARROD POTTER the last one-dayer. 150850 gles’ middle order stole the show as the total ballooned around Chasemore - who smashed nine boundaries and two monster sixes - while Steve Spoljaric (33) and Lucas Ligt (37no) also dug in. Shaun Weir (4/47) and Peter Atkinson (2/20) proved a strong opening tandem for the Bulls’ bowling, but not much can be said about the Bulls’ batting. Clay McCartney (38) endured against the likes of Spoljaric (4/21) and Chasemore, but struggled to get enough support as Cranbourne stayed on course to earn a home

field, facing Berwick in the second semi-final at Casey Fields this week.

Narre Warren (6/221) finished its first season back in the top flight in style, smashing North Dandenong (127) to all parts of Lois Twohig Reserve. Kaushalya Weeraratne (124no) kept his name in Wookey Medal contention with an impressive century, supported

by Janaka Liyanabadalge (51).

Berwick (9/177) smashed its way into finals as (70) capped off a horror season to go winless and be relegated from Turf 1,

Teams ready for finals NARRE WARREN BOWLS MIDWEEK WITH only one round of homeand-away competition left in the midweek pennant, two of Narre Warren’s sides are confirmed to play finals, with the third side still a big chance.

Unfortunately, all matches this week were cancelled due to the extreme hot weather.

SATURDAY With the home-and away rounds completed, Narre Warren’s pennant teams performed excellently, with all our sides winning this week to finish on a high, and three sides playing in finals next week, two at home and one away.

The Division 2 firsts went away to Elsternwick Club for their final hit-out for the season; they came home smiling all round as all four rinks won. Wilma Haringsma, Carl Lapham, Rod Lane, Ian Brotherton 26-6; Zade Bulmer, Erik

Luyters, Iain Stevenson, Wilma Stevenson 25-15; Arthur Scheurer, Reg Young, Joe Selfridge, Jimmy Millar 32-18; Shirley Bell, Alan Dawson, Eric Sydenham, Neville Bradley 25-14.

The Division 4 seconds played host to third place Murrumbeena, and with a 3 rinks up win, they confirmed their place on top of the ladder. They will play Parkdale at home in next week’s first round of finals.

Michael Graham, Alan Mark, Ralph Devonshire, Stan Robinson 27-12; Mark Groom, Keith Mark, Peter Castricum, Greg Cowan, 24-19; Colin Groom, David Shearer, John Heathcote, Reg Johnstone 18-15; Janis Dukats, Luca Klarica, Bill Brewster, Norm Hosmer 12-16.

The Division 6 thirds visited Eastwood Golf in Kilsyth this week. With a good 3 rinks up win, they too confirmed their top spot on the ladder and booked a home final next week

against Heatherdale. Fred Fox, Bob Gye, Sharon Bull, Brent Grigg 25-12; Len O’Brien, Rudi Pompe, Micki Horton, Enid Gibb 32-11; Peter Rouse, Rick Hoare, Ethel Van Maanen, Brian Fraser 17-18; Glen Cadman, Ernesto Vergara, Steve Boyd, Damian Brick 30-14.

The Division 7 fourths were at home playing against Blackburn North; with a 3 rinks up win, they firmed up their third ladder position and set up an away final at Bayswater. Darren Moore, Margaret Hyam, Stan Birkett, Phillip Howard 17-19; Rose Rasmussen, Nancy Pugh, Jack Norman, Peter Pater 25-13; Callum Osborne, Pam Uren, Leo McGeary, John Uren 33-19; Helen McCarthy, Stan Bulmer, Sep Van Maanen, Andy Tobler 20-15. A special mention to John Uren’s team who made the club’s only 8-shot end (the maximum possible) for the year; well done to them.

Young Miners bounce back THE Berwick Miners juniors have bounced back impressively from a week one hiding to record a nailbiting win over the Western Crusaders in Gridiron Victoria competition on the weekend.

The Endeavour Hills-based side was smashed 50-0 on their own Rawling Field home deck in week one of the competition, but rebounded brilliantly to

sneak past the Western Crusaders at Ranger Field in Croydon on Sunday morning 32-28.

The Miners’ women’s team, the Diamonds, also suffered a heavy loss in their first game of the season, going down to the Rangers in Croydon 48-0 on Saturday afternoon.

They’ll look to record their first win of the season this Sat-

urday at the Corio Community Reserve when they take on local side, the Geelong Buccaneers from 2pm.

The junior Miners will look to record a second straight win when they take on the Northern Raiders at DR Atkinson Reserve this Sunday afternoon, also from 2pm.

- RUSSELL BENNETT

while Hallam Kalora Park (9/178) couldn’t hold back Buckley Ridges (4/181).

In Turf 3, Beaconsfield (8/153) earned the minor premiership with an emphatic win over Cranbourne (73), led by Brendan Johnson (49) and another five-wicket haul to the skipper Dylan Frietag (5/11).

Beaconsfield will host Doveton North in the first semifinal; an incredible effort for the new-comers to DDCA to make the top four in the inaugural season.

Chase is on for Swans

By JARROD POTTER PREMIER CRICKET ROUND 17 (Day 1) CASEY-SOUTH Melbourne will have to chase a monster total in its last day as it failed to make a dint against Carlton (9/295).

After a couple of early scalps - hard earned by Lee Diston (2/48) and Nathan Lambden (1/7) - the Swans struggled to restrict the opposition any further.

Lambden was restricted to four overs first up - where he skittled opener Mark Phelan (4) - but his absence from the attack made life all the more difficult for the young Swans.

Brendan Rose (2/76), Diston, Jackson Fry (2/42) and

James Seymour (1/41) were left to burden the bowling duties in Lambden’s absence.

For Casey, the main problem arose at number four in the form of Nicholas Ross (114).

From 2/12 when he arrived, Ross departed at 6/250 and completely stole the show as the hosts were left to scramble for scalps. Jayden Borg (66) kept the tempo ticking along as well.

Seymour has a chance to notch 700 runs for the season if he can make 19 in the last knock of the year.

WITH pride on the line, Dandenong (252) stood tall against Greenvale. The last salvo of 2015/16 started horribly for Dandenong though, losing

the skipper Tom Donnell (0) for a duck, but the rescue work began at first-drop. Brendan Murphy (73) and Brett Forsyth (69) anchored the innings with a superb 148-run partnership - the best this season for the first XI in the last round of the season.

The middle-order failed to make any impression after the duo succumbed though, as the next seven scalps fell for a scant 28 runs. The late order hitting of Justin Butterfield (38) and Peter Cassidy (21) guaranteed a massive total for Greenvale to hunt down next week. Debutants Comrey Edgeworth (3) and Josh Dowling (4no) didn’t have long at the crease, but stand alongside the litany of young Panthers to get a chance at the senior level in 2015/16.

Finals pressure is on

By RUSSELL BENNETT WGCA PREMIER DIVISION PREVIEW - SEMI FINALS MERINDA Park Premier skipper Danny Diwell summed it up best when interviewed by the News in the lead-up to this weekend’s door-die semi-finals.

“They well and truly deserve to be favourites - they’ve been the dominant side all year,” he said of the so far undefeated Pakenham, the Cobras’ opponents this weekend.

“But finals cricket is a funny game, and a different game.

“People say they don’t feel pressure and just play their natural games, but that doesn’t happen.”

“Finals separate the great players from the good players.”

That, in a nutshell, sums up the situation in this game. Pakenham has been the class of the competition all season, with great depth with either bat or ball in hand. They’re the red-hot favourites who’ve comfortably defeated Merinda Park twice already this season. But none of that means anything now. Not really.

“Everyone is on a clean slate now. We get a home final, but it’s still a 22-yard pitch - the same as theirs,” said Pakenham’s inspirational leader Dom Paynter.

“The proof is in the pudding."

When it comes to his own fitness this week, after picking up a nasty thumb injury, Paynter is emphatic.

“I’m playing - I’ll be right,” he said.

TURF 2

Merinda Park skipper Danny Diwell will have to play a huge role if his side is to find a way past Pakenham this weekend. 149836 Picture: ROB CAREW Paynter remained tight-lipped but the News understands that he’ll get his thumb seen to at the completion of his side’s season, whenever that may be.

“I batted on Saturday and felt good - I didn’t feel any discomfort and the instinct to play naturally was still there,” he said.

“If I don’t score any runs, it (the thumb) is no excuse.”

“You can’t take blokes into a final who aren’t up to it.”

Diwell and his men enter this weekend’s game knowing that, at stages, they did have Pakenham on the ropes at one stage in Round 6.

“We’ll take the positives out of those games (earlier in the season),” he said.

“They were 4/50 at one stage in the first game and we let the foot of the pedal.

“But we need to be consistent with the ball all day.”

Diwell predicted any score around the 200 mark by the side batting first would be particularly tough to chase down, with finals pressure thrown in the mix.

Merinda Park advanced to the finals off the back of an emphatic win over Upper Beaconsfield; while Kooweerup and Cardinia -

who fought it out for the past two premierships - will go head-tohead in the other semi-final after the Demons proved a class above Tooradin.

The semi-finals will both be held over Saturday and Sunday this weekend, with Pakenham taking on Merinda Park at Toomuc Reserve; and Cardinia hosting Kooweerup at E. Gunton Oval at the Cardinia Recreation Reserve.

Saints look to expand

X Men head in right direction

By RUSSELL BENNETT

FOR the love of the game, and by the passion and dedication of its members. They’re the two, overriding reasons the St Francis Xavier Old Collegians Victorian Amateur Football Association (VAFA) club continues to exist.

Chris Seuren, the club president of the ‘X Men’, admitted to the Gazette last year that they were lucky to have a club at all after all they’d been through.

And yet they went on to claim the Club XVIII (2) premiership with a big win over the Melbourne High School Old Boys in August. The result marked a seismic shift from where the club had been less than 12 months before as a lack of numbers forced them out of Division 3 and back to Club XVIII - right where they started in 2007.

But that’s what the love of the game can do.

As the sport of football, even at a local level, continues to become more and more monetised, the X Men are proof of where a club can go on the back of the passion and dedication of its members, and the sheer love of the game. They’ve got a long way to go, but under Seuren and new coach Luke Fulton-Tindal they’re headed well and truly in the right direction.

Fulton-Tindal is new to the area, in fact he’s moved in opposite St Francis’ new campus in Officer. But he’s already embraced the community and everything the club has to offer.

He comes to the club with a playing history including stints at the Shepparton Bears, East Coast Eagles (Sydney), and Uni Blues (VAFA A Grade) and coaching stints at Uni Blues, East Coast Eagles reserves, and Melbourne Uni Women’s Football Club.

He’s still in his 30s, but an osteoarthritic condition in his hips forced him to walk off the field for the final time as a player at just 24.

FOOTY is a game for everyone, regardless of their personal circumstance, background, or ability.

No local club better epitomises this than the St Francis Xavier Saints and they’re on the lookout to expand their ever-growing army on the eve of the 2016 season.

The club is a part of AFL Victoria’s Football Integration Development Association (FIDA) - an Aussie Rules competition for players with an intellectual disability.

The Saints are the brainchild of Paddy and Jen McKenna, who’ve been heavily involved in the local footy landscape for many years.

They’ve had nothing but support from the local community, councils, the Bendigo Bank, other local businesses and AFL Victoria along the way in setting up the new club.

But the team isn’t just for people with a disability - it’s for anyone who feels they don’t necessarily fit into the mainstream football community.

“Paddy, Simon (coach Simon Van Dam) and I just got so much out of it last year,” Jen said.

“It’s so rewarding, and we’re just so happy for the boys to see them involved in team sport.

“For me, the most rewarding thing was the parents and how happy they are that their boys are involved in a team sport they wouldn’t normally be exposed to.

“We had our presentation night (at St Francis Xavier) last year and Duffy and Simon in Pakenham donated all the trophies to the boys.

“They approached us, having

Trent Davidson and Andy Connor love being a part of the St Francis Xavier Saints FIDA side. 150946 Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT read about the team in the paper, and said they wanted to help. All the boys got a beautiful trophy from them and that night was amazing; all their families, friends and carers came along and some of the players - who’re normally anxious or aren’t confident in speaking - actually asked us if they could speak and they got up and thanked us and told us what the team has done for their lives. Their parents were all just sitting there with tears pouring down their faces.”

Those involved in the team last season are all coming back to give

footy another crack in an inclusive, accepting environment.

Heath Richards, one of the Saints players, says he just loves being involved in the team and making new friends, while Andy Connor - a star of the forward line - just loves the excitement.

The 2016 season is rapidly approaching and new players are urged come along and join in. Training is held each Wednesday from 5.30 to 6.30pm at Beaconsfield’s St Francis Xavier College campus, beginning on 16 March. For more information visit www.sfxsaints.org.

By RUSSELL BENNETT

“I look at these guys and think they don’t know how lucky they are to still be able to play footy - to be out there running around and enjoying what this game has to offer,” he said.

“I’d give anything to be able to play again, but this is my way of giving back to a sport I love and to a new community.”

And now, he can’t wait to take the X Men to exciting new heights. He’s in it for the long-haul, too.

“I saw it as an opportunity to come in and help build a culture for football in the area about the love of the game,” he said.

“I think it’s just that. There are a lot of clubs around that’ll pay players good money to play, but when it comes to playing football for the love of the game nothing beats the Amateurs. It’s football for people who love playing, and that’s what I want to get back to - that passion.”

The X Men are based at Beaconsfield’s St Francis Xavier campus on Beaconsfield Avenue. For anyone interested in playing for them this season, visit www.sfxoc.com. au or www.facebook.com/sfxocfc.

Peugeot adds its allure

By PETER ANDERSON THE 208 range hasn’t exactly set Australian sales charts on fire but has been a fine return to form for the French manufacturer after a couple of duffers.

Its top-of-the-range GTi has, however, got plenty of attention for the most convincing attempt to reboot the beloved 205 GTi.

Not everyone wants or can afford that rangetopper, however, but with its excellent ride and handling on offer, Peugeot has sent the 208 Allure to finishing school to create the GT Line.

While the 208 range starts at $15,990 with a fivespeed manual 60kW Access, the GT-Line weighs in at a GTi-troubling $27,490 (the GTi is $29,990).

The GTi has more power and torque but is a sixspeed manual only and will, of course, cost more to run.

The price is almost the same as its French rival Renault’s Clio GT. For this level of spend you get Peugeot’s seveninch screen powering a six-speaker stereo, front and rear parking sensors, auto-parking, dual-zone climate control, power windows and folding mirrors, leather steering wheel and handbrake, rear parking sensors, central locking, cruise control with braking function, cloth trim and 16-inch alloy wheels.

The optional Active City Brake feature at $500 also includes a reversing camera which is $300 on its own.

The GT Line, as the name suggests, is well on its way to looking like a GTi with 16-inch alloys, a lower stance and the tell-tale bodykit and LED daytime running lights.

The grille is flecked with red flashes for an “equaliser” effect and there’s various chrome and red bits to sort the GT from the lower models.

The windscreen is gigantic, soaring up to your forehead (and further if you have the panoramic roof), with the high ceiling delivering a ton of headroom. Inside space is impressive for such a small car with a decent-sized boot at 311 litres.

The sportier more heavily bolstered seats are still very comfortable with a wide range of adjustment to help you get comfortable behind the i-Cockpit,

Peugeot 208 goes GTi-lite and is still heaps of fun. which consists of high dials and low steering wheel.

As in the 308, the steering wheel is very small indeed so you can see those dials but is off-putting to some. It takes a while to get the position right.

The rear seats are comfortable enough, but the rear seat is tight for leg, knee and shoulder room.

Storage is limited with a pair of small cupholders up front and a bin hidden underneath the rather inconveniently-sited central armrest.

Six airbags, ABS, brake assist, brake force distribution, stability and traction controls and loadlimited front seat-belts add up to five ANCAP stars.

The seven-inch screen is bright and clear but is

still slow to respond to your inputs and isn’t exactly the last word in ease-of-use or up-to-the minute design. The screen takes care of not only sat-nav and stereo but also the full trip computer and climate control. There’s a lot going on there and it would be fine if the screen wasn’t so slow to respond to your fingers.

The standard GTi is the best riding hot hatch in the world even if it doesn’t have that ultimate handling ability, which few of its owners will ever use, of its Renault, Ford and VW rivals. Even if you’re not a petrolhead, the GT Line comes with plenty of useful features but you might just have to ask yourself if $27,490 for a 208 is worth it.

Space race

By ALISTAIR KENNEDY ALTHOUGH it doesn’t attract as much attention as its i30 hatch twin, the Hyundai Elantra sedan has been in the Korean carmaker’s Australian range since 1991.

The latest sixth generation Elantra, which has just been launched, gets extra thrust from a new 2.0-litre petrol engine (up from a 1.8) as well as a facelift, equipment upgrade and extra size.

The most significant improvement, however, is beneath the surface with a more rigid chassis and suspension changes providing increased occupant safety and comfort through improved noise, vibration and harshness (NVH) suppression as well as better vehicle dynamics.

Local Hyundai engineers played an important part in the development and testing of the new chassis and suspension which uses significantly more advanced high-strength steel and new aerospace-derived advanced structural adhesives.

The new Elantra gets the latest Hyundai hexagonal grille flanked by slimline headlights atop vertical LED daytime running lights.

In profile it has retained the attractive coupe-like lines from preceding models.

As is the norm with model upgrades, the new Elantra is larger than before with 20 mm

New Hyundai Elantra looks and feels like a much more expensive car.

added to the length, 25 mm to the width and a minimal 5 mm extra height.

Two variants are offered the entry-level Active with a six-speed manual gearbox at $21,490 or the six-speed automatic ($23,790), and $26,490 for the auto-only Elite.

The only engine option is a 2.0-litre naturally-aspirated petrol which replaces the previous 1.8-litre used in the outgoing gen 5 Elantra.

Outputs, while increased, don’t match the extra engine capacity with power up just 2 kW to 112 kW and torque going from 178 Nm to 192 Nm. The new torque peak does come in 700 rpm lower on the tachometer at 4000 rpm.

Standard safety features include six airbags; ABS brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist; electronic stability and traction control; reversing camera; rear

parking sensors; and hill start assist.

The Elite’s $2700 price surcharge over the Active offers excellent value with a variety of extras features including chrome radiator grille surrounds and belt-line moulding; smartkey and push-button start/stop; leather-trim interior (the Active is cloth only); powered folding side mirrors; auto dimming interior rear-vision mirror; rainsensing wipers; 17-inch alloy wheels (16-inch alloys in the Active); dual-zone climate control air conditioning; and rear seat cooling vents in the centre console; boot cargo net; and illuminated front door handles and sunvisors.

The Elite also gets a clever automatic boot opening feature.

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

Makeover for feisty Fiat It’s surprisingly well balanced for a front driver and the harder you go the more the steering and suspension ‘talk’ to you. Love it!

Ride comfort is noticeably better than the superseded model, we know because we have a Fiat 500 by Gucci in our family and it can be on the bumpy side at times when on roads that have seen better days.

Road noise is also lower.

During the media launch of the facelifted Fiat we sampled a 500 Pop cabriolet with a 1.2-litre engine (51 kW and 102 Nm) and a five-speed manual gearbox as well as a Pop hardtop with an automated manual gearbox.

This self shifting manual, DuaLogic in Fiat speak, can be irritating at times in its lower gears, but in this latest model feels to be better than in previous iterations, possibly because the computer has been smartened up. Nevertheless, it would be nice to the see a double-clutch auto as fitted in big brother 500X installed in the standard 500 We also drove a Fiat 500 Lounge with a 1.4-litre powerplant (74 kW / 131 Nm) and a six-speed manual.

This is certainly our powertrain of choice as the extra grunt and closer-spaced DIY gear ratios are a neat combination.

If the nippy little Fiat doesn’t help the driver from staying out of trouble they will be pleased to have ABS with electronic brake distribution (EBD), advanced electronic stability control, anti-slip regulation (ASR), Hill Holder and hydraulic brake assistance (HBA) to try and save them.

Should all else fail, a well engineered body and seven airbags will minimise the impact on the occupants.

Colour and customisation are big features in building a Fiat 500 to suit individual tastes.

There are no fewer than 13 paint colours, three roof colours on the cabriolet and 10 interior themes.

Then there are various decals to really get your imagination into top gear and go all the way with customisation.

By EWAN KENNEDY IT’S hard to believe the new Fiat 500 is approaching its 10th year.

It has just been facelifted, as well as given out-of-sight technical advances.

The bonnet is a carryover unit but the styling of the headlights is new, as are the daytime running lights (DRLs).

The front is closer to vertical than before, which gives the 500‘s a slightly bolder look.

The most noticeable design change is to the lowset grille which now has a diamond shaped theme similar to that of the new 500X crossover.

At the rear the taillights are the same shape as before but now have a funkier design courtesy of the guys and gals at Fiat’s Centro Stile.

The biggest changes are in the 500‘s cabin.

It still has the painted metal look on the dashboard that everyone loves.

As introduced in the previous makeover, the readouts in the upmarket 500 Lounge are electronic while those in the lower cost Pop remain conventional.

A central infotainment screen tends to dominate the centre of the dash area. To our eyes this takes away from the simple purity of the original design, but we are well aware buyers want to stay in touch with what’s happening in the outside world so the 500 now gets the Fiat-Chrysler Uconnect system and USB, Aux and Bluetooth connections on all models.

The central console has the same switch arrangement as previously but the switches themselves have been redesigned as part of the upgrade.

Seat and trim designs have been given a work over, both visually and in the outof-sight areas to increase comfort by revising seat padding.

On the road there’s no doubt you’re at the wheel of a European car; no, not just European, an Italian machine.

The baby Fiat is lively in its handling and just loves to tackle bend after bend at the sort of speeds keen drivers crave.

Transmission team keeps cars in top gear CASEY Transmission Centre has been established for more than 20 years in the Berwick area.

Owner Stephen Vanzetti said the company specialises in automatic and manual gearboxes and carries a wide range of changeovers off the shelf to suit most common vehicles to improve turnaround times.

Free courtesy cars are available to

ensure that customer inconvenience is kept to a minimum while their car is being worked on.

Casey Transmission Centre is also an Exedy clutch stockists and authorized installers.

It also has its own new flywheel grinder in-house to minimize downtime and to ensure the job is done properly.

Stephen also recommends transmission servicing at least every 30,000 to 60,000 kilometres depending on the transmission type and model.

This should be more frequent as the car ages and the kilometres increase and contaminants cycle through transmission causing filter blockage and oil starvation.

There is also a misconception that

‘filled for life’ transmissions do not need servicing.

While attending a recent seminar staff asked ‘how long is ‘life’?’

The response they received was “manufacturer warranty period” and that it has a lot to do with lease vehicle and running costs of competing brands.

Stephen does not believe that oils
