Council applauds Federal Government’s Monash Freeway plan
Advocacy drives road and transport investment
The City of Casey has welcomed the Federal Government’s plan for the upgrade of the Monash and Princes Freeways, believing it provides the best solution for Casey motorists. Council is now calling on the State Government to increase their contribution towards the Monash Freeway upgrade, to ensure a total of $1 billion is invested in the project. The Federal Government has promised $500 million to the upgrade, provided the State Government agrees to accept and match the offer dollar-for-dollar. The State Government has so far allocated $400 million towards the project in the 2016-17 Victorian Budget, to upgrade the freeway from Eastlink to Clyde Road. Council is urging the Andrews Labor
Government to match the federal funding - effectively increasing the state’s contribution by $100 million to bring the joint contribution to $1 billion, providing the best outcome and a long-term solution. Council was thrilled to learn that the Federal Government’s funding for the project would include the extension of 0 4IFB 3PBE UP UIF #FBDPOTmFME interchange on the Princes Freeway, providing a less congested and more convenient alternative than the Clyde Road interchange for residents south of Berwick. Casey residents need the freeway upgraded, and need the O’Shea Road extension, so Council is urging the State Government to partner with the Federal Government as soon as QPTTJCMF UP IFMQ mY UIF OPUPSJPVT Monash Freeway once and for all.

FEDERAL GOVERNMENT FIXING BROADBAND BLACK SPOTS
FURTHER FUNDS NEEDED TO FINISH THOMPSONS ROAD
The City of Casey is thrilled that the National Broadband Network (NBN) is set to be rolled out to Narre Warren South next month.
The City of Casey welcomes the State Government’s contribution towards Thompsons Road in the State Budget, but is calling for further funding to ensure the project can be completed in its entirety.
For many years the City of Casey, along with local residents and Member for LaTrobe Jason Wood MP, advocated to the Federal Government for improved broadband infrastructure in notorious internet black spot areas across Casey. Most particularly, Council pushed for an early roll out of the NBN in Narre Warren 4PVUI BT UIF BSFB EPFT OPU DVSSFOUMZ IBWF BEFRVBUF DPWFS GPS mYFE IJHI TQFFE broadband such as ADSL2. Following the extensive advocacy, the Federal Government announced last year that Narre Warren South would be added to the roll-out schedule.

Council is continuing to work with the Federal Government and NBN Co to address Casey’s black spots into the future, ensuring all residents have access to fast and reliable broadband services. Council congratulates Jason Wood MP, Federal Member for LaTrobe, on his strong support and action on this matter.
The State Government allocated $154.5 million in the 2016-17 Victorian Budget to complete the duplication of Thompsons Road between Frankston-Dandenong Road and Berwick-Cranbourne Road.

COUNCIL SUPPORTS BUSINESS INNOVATION The City of Casey plans to introduce a new scheme designed to support and foster innovation in local businesses. Council has proposed $100,000 in its 2016-17 Draft Budget towards a Business Innovation Fund, which will allow Casey businesses to apply for an interest free loan of up to $20,000 to develop or implement an innovative idea or concept.

Stage one works are on track to be completed by the end of August. Design of stage two is proposed in Council’s 2016-17 Draft Budget, which includes landscaping and accessible terracing, upgrades to the youth and skate precinct, improved pedestrian links and a bicycle path. Councillors Damien Rosario, Rosalie Crestani, Rafal Kaplon and Mayor Cr Sam Aziz were joined by community members to celebrate the progress of the revitalisation of the Endeavour Hills community and shopping hub.
City of Casey Mayor Cr Sam Aziz said “The fund aims to support entrepreneurial and enterprising business activities which grow businesses and generate new jobs in Casey. “To innovate is to do something in a new, creative or novel way. In business, that might mean improving an existing service or product in an original way that increases its usefulness or opens up new markets, addresses an everyday process in a revolutionary manner or developing new technology or tools to create a competitive point-of-difference. “Council hopes this fund will not only support businesses with innovation projects but also create local employment opportunities, increase the level of business investment in the municipality and foster new partnerships and collaboration between businesses.� *G BEPQUFE UIF GVOE XJMM CF MBVODIFE JO UIF OFX mOBODJBM year.

NEW AND IMPROVED ATHLETICS TRACK AT EDWIN FLACK! The community can now run, throw, hop, skip and jump at the Edwin Flack Reserve Athletics Track in Berwick all year round after the facility underwent a $2 million redevelopment. The new and improved track was reopened in December after the City of Casey converted the existing grass athletics track, as well as the javelin, long and triple jump run-ups and high jump area, to all-weather synthetic surfaces. The conversion of this athletics facility from grass to a synthetic surface has provided the community and Casey Little Athletics Club, who call the track home, with a modern facility, enabling athletics to prosper. The Casey Little Athletics Club is one of the largest athletics clubs in Victoria, currently having more than 300 members who have been making good use of their upgraded facility.

COUNCIL CONTINUES LOBBYING FOR IMPROVED SHARED HOUSING REGULATIONS The City of Casey is continuing to lobby the State Government to strengthen shared housing provisions to increase Council and DPNNVOJUZ JOnVFODF JO EFDJTJPO NBLJOH Earlier this year the City of Casey called on the State Government to undertake an urgent review of the state-wide provisions on shared housing, on behalf of residents of the Brookland Greens estate in Cranbourne where a shared housing project had been proposed. As a direct result of Council’s advocacy, the State Government made changes to the shared housing provisions clarifying that the development of shared housing proposals in Victoria were subject to local Council planning approvals. Under the previous state-wide planning provisions, there was uncertainty over whether Council approval was required to construct shared houses in Casey that comprise up to 10 habitable rooms. Whilst Council welcomes the introduction of the revised provisions for the development of shared housing, Council believes the changes are not extensive enough. The state-wide exemption for the use of new or existing buildings for shared housing up to 10 habitable rooms remains in place, and Council is still unable to consider the full potential impacts on neighbouring residents’ amenity as part of an application process.

CAMPAIGN HELPS SPREAD THE LOVE IN CASEY The City of Casey has thrown its support behind a goodwill campaign which encourages the community to carry out acts of kindness and love across the municipality. Casey City Church is set to launch its ‘Casey - Love This City’ campaign on Friday 24 June, which will encourage residents, businesses and
organisations to undertake random acts of kindness or to ‘pay it forward’. Council has resolved to support the initiative and has appointed former City of Casey Mayor Shar Balmes as the Goodwill Ambassador for the City of Casey to promote the campaign.
Council is continuing to advocate to the State Government for further urgent changes to the Victoria Planning Provisions that would require planning permits for both the use and development of larger shared housing proposals to facilitate greater community engagement in the approval process. Balla Balla Ward Cr Geoff Ablett is continuing to push for further changes to shared housing provisions.
Community members might like to welcome a new resident to the neighbourhood with a gift, bake something or mow the lawn for a neighbour or simply help out someone you might not know when an opportunity presents itself.

Sex in the city By GEORGIA WESTGARTH
1230320-CG24-16
SHE goes by ‘Lacey’ and she’s been a prostitute for six months - but all she wants is order back in her life. “Routine� she calls it, a sort of structure that the sex industry has thrown out of her life. “All I want is to have routine and responsibilities again,� she said. “You become slack in this job, you can always ring in sick when you want and you become quite disrespectful - I can’t wait to have that again, that’s the hard thing about this job.� ‘Lacey’- her working girl name - currently resides in Casey, but has spent the majority of her adult years backpacking with her best friend, two of those throughout Australia. The 27-year-old from northern England has been caught up in the secretive and often corrupt world of paid sex for four years. She has worked as a prostitute in Australia in two stints, for a total of six months - having returned to prostitution after separating from her husband of three years. “My best friend and I were backpacking and we were doing fruit picking for our second year visa in Shepparton and we came to Melbourne and had no money at all,� Lacey recalled. “We learnt that brothels were legal here because in the UK they’re not - so we thought we’d give it a go.� It was something Lacey never saw in her future, and she has decided it won’t be for much longer. “If I was doing this job and just getting by that would be soul destroying but because I know it’s just a little stint and I’ll have my life back like I did before, it’s easy to get through it,� she said. “But it’s not a bad job, it’s not.� Lacey worked at a brothel in Seaford for her first three months on the job and said she surprisingly liked it. “I thought it would be like mismatched furniture and mattresses on the floor, but it was beautiful and the girls weren’t junkies, they were lovely,� Lacey said. “We went for an interview and actually we mocked it at first.� Lacey, a believer that “sex is for love� shocked herself and her best friend after her first shift.

Dire need for foster carers
Bill’s medal of honour By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS DURING Bill Rogers’ ‘retirement’ for the past 20 years he has still been going full-time. As a volunteer welfare officer at Legacy, he has been diligently working 3040 hour weeks in Melbourne’s south-east – and at times further abroad – to look after veterans and their families. “If you live in the community you give back to the community,” the Berwick ex-police officer and Vietnam 7RAR veteran said. On 13 June, Mr Rogers was named as a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) recipient for his voluntary deeds. They include being a past president of the Rotary Club of Belgrave and an RSL member of Berwick and Dandenong. Mr Rogers has also held board positions at Legacy in Melbourne and its national council. As a police officer he protected witnesses and VIPs and organised the Police World Games featuring 7000 athletes in 1995. At the time the event was the biggest in Melbourne since the 1956 Olympics. He said there’s a great need to look after the recent waves of veterans coming home from Iraq and Afghanistan. But often their families’ struggles are overlooked. “What the families are going through is extremely tough. They’re trying to hold things together.” He knows how veterans tend to keep things to themselves, and tries to help families to understand why the returned servicepeople have changed. “Nothing will ever replace the camaraderie and the mateship that you share with those served with. “It’s the mental trauma they go through. A lot of them want to go back to where they came from – it’s what they know best and their mates are there.” Mr Rogers remembers a wife strug-
Bill Rogers OAM lives in the community so he contributes to the community 155216 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS gling to deal with how she was treated by her returned WWII soldier husband. “I sat down and went through what her husband went through in New Guinea and the Middle East. The things he had seen, the mates he’d lost ... it changes him. “He is not as tolerant, doesn’t like crowds, doesn’t like going out. They become introverted.”
Your smile is our top priority.
The wife had not heard her husband’s war travails, hadn’t understood their impact and broke into tears. “That explains so much,” she told Mr Rogers. As a veteran himself, Mr Rogers said post-traumatic stress has come and gone for him – and it’s been suffered by servicepeople for all time. He deals with it by keeping busy.
He helps with difficulties at veteran families’ homes. Sometimes he sits and keeps company with war widows, some in their 90s who have endured real hardship and loneliness. “I feel highly honoured. They accept a stranger into their home and tell you about their life.”
MORE than 6500 children in Victoria are placed in out-ofhome care on any given night. Victoria needs at least 300 new foster carers every year to meet the demand for foster care placements. The need for foster carers in the Casey and Cardinia areas is growing, and there are not enough foster carers in the region. There are many types of fostering, ranging from looking after a child for a night or two when you can or the odd weekend. Full time care is also needed for some children and young people who need a home for a few months to a few years. While full time foster care may not suit all lifestyles, new foster carer Jane encourages people to consider applying for part time, emergency or respite care. “Try it, it’s really rewarding. Foster care has opened up a whole new life for me,“ she said. To find out more about becoming a foster carer, contact SalvoCare Eastern on 5662 6400 or go to Facebook and search SalvoCare Eastern Foster Care.

$250,000 wasted By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS Brendan Browne is accusing Casey Council of pouring money down the drain with its failed ESC submission. 155436 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS
CASEY Council has been accused of “wasting” $250,000 on its failed submission to lift rates above a 2.5 per cent rise. Casey Residents and Ratepayers Association spokesman Brendan Browne said the council should have known the Essential Services Commission’s likely verdict, given the bid’s unpopularity. “The council tried to argue the unpopularity of the excessive rate charges didn’t matter because it was still in the best interest of ‘all ratepayers’. “It makes you wonder whether the council are so used to wasting money, that $250,000 down the drain doesn’t matter to them.” The Municipal Association of Victoria estimated the submissions would cost up to $40,000. Casey Mayor Sam Aziz said it was inaccurate to portray Casey’s bid as “wasteful”, noting there was no “extra cost” to the ratepayer. He said the ‘cost’ comprised the hours devoted by council staff on the bid, though external consultants were hired for required community consultation. “The (Local Government) minister (Natalie Hutchins) told us we should not hold back on community consultation. “If you look objectively at what was required for the best possible shot, we did what we had to do. “We put in a very professional document of full modelling and analysis on the impact of rate-capping on the fastest-growing (council area) in the state.” The ESC stated that councils had reported the required paperwork was “extensive” and the process itself “cumbersome”. “As part of its review of the system, the ESC should ... make it as simple as possible for councils to meet their application requirements.” Casey chief executive Mike Tyler told the ESC, in the course of the council’s submission, that one of the required tasks was a 50-page spreadsheet, with more than 9000 cells requiring individual data. “This alone was about 30 days’ work that had to be diverted from other tasks.” Mr Browne said the argument that there was no extra cost to the council was “feeble”. “What kind of council would redirect so much valuable staff time into a dubious attempt to increase rates? “With Mayor Aziz’s support, those staff could have been working productively for the betterment of the City of Casey.”
POLICE have charged a 13-year-old girl and three other teens over burglaries and car thefts in Dandenong, Hallam, Narre Warren, Officer and Pakenham. Southern Metropolitan Regional Crime Team investigators found and arrested the two boys and two girls at a Dandenong motel. Upon further investigation, officers also found an allegedly-stolen SUV linked to aggravated burglary in Cranbourne. Police charged the 13-year-old,

Thumbs up for Judy By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS THE escaped noxious weeds blighting Cardinia Creek once seemed “insurmountable” to Casey’s recently-crowned environment volunteer of the year Judy Smith. For 18 years, the Berwick greenthumb and other co-founders of Friends of Cardinia Creek have culled the exotic plants, removed shopping trolleys and rubbish, and revegetated the reserves. “I didn’t think we’d get this done in my lifetime,” Ms Smith said. Though, of course, the task - as with any weeding job - doesn’t have an end date. “The creek will never have a clean bill of health because the (weed) seeds are still there.” One of the worst is pittosporum - a tall East Gippsland-native with orange berries and cream flowers favoured by some gardeners as a hedge. “Nothing grows underneath them - only the other weeds,” Ms Smith said. Ms Smith’s 25-year commitment to the creek’s bushland reserves was recognised by Casey Council creating a seat - with a bronze plaque in her name - by the creek. Her announcement as volunteerof-the-year was at a civic reception on World Environment Day on 3 June. “I’m not a front person. I do the work but I’ve got a good team to work with - six of the original Friends members are still there with me.” There’s still a need for new, young members, she adds. “People say you can come and do my garden but they never say I’ll come and give some help.
Judy Smith holds her plaque at her beloved Cardinia Creek. 155227 “But they do say thank you for the work you do.” Fittingly the plaque seat will be planted near a platypus sign that marks the re-introduction of platypi in 2004 - an indicator of the creek’s continuing good health. Recent surveys have been encouraging, with a platypus recently spotted as far away as Inglis Road, Beaconsfield. Each year, the friends group organises Clean Up Australia Day working-bees in Berwick and Bea-
consfield, collecting more than 40 bags of rubbish. Ms Smith does her own clean-up round twice a week in the area. She went to the first meeting of Wilson Botanic Park when the first seeds of transforming the abandoned quarry site were sown 25 years ago. A member of Australian Plant Society, she’s helped flourish a native-plant section in the beautified park She’s a person who likes to be
Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS near the earth, bushwalking in pristine marvels like Wilson’s Promontory or helping her son establish his garden in Warburton. As Casey-Cardinia fills with houses, the creek, the botanic park and Beaconsfield Fauna and Flora Reserve are increasingly “precious” places. Ms Smith feels at home by the creek. “I really enjoy Cardinia Creek and I want to make sure others can as well.”

Sex in the city From front page He was a client and would book Lacey up to four times a week for up to four hours at a time for a month. “My ex-husband was my client - that’s where I went wrong,” Lacey said. But he only paid to have sex with Lacey once all the other visits would be spent chatting. “My best friend was seeing her partner, now husband, at the time and I guess I was lonely - we became friends, for six months we met up outside of the brothel and would chat on Facebook. “He initially booked me for sex but because we got on so well it developed.” Now broken up for reasons that cannot be recounted, Lacey decided to start working again as a prostitute at the Garden of Eden (GOE) in Dandenong and says she loves it. “I love the GOE, we’re like a family,” she said. “It’s just a job, I’m making somebody happy at the end of the day.” But Lacey revealed she couldn’t do the job without using protection. “The difference between doing the job and not is the condom for me,” she said. “If I had no condom then that is actually doing the job, and I couldn’t do it mentally - thank God for the condom, it makes me a lot of money,” she said, laughing. Lacey sends money to her mum to pay for the care of her cat, and apart from paying rent, saves every cent. In between clients Lacey surfs the net and talks to the other girls, or washes the towels. With a background in caring for those with learning disabilities, Lacey said she couldn’t wait to return home to start a routine. “I’m saving to go back to England for good.” Lacey’s message to those removed from the industry is this: “People are very quick to judge, but people that are on this side - both men and women - are open-minded. “Everyone has sex behind closed doors, that’s why we’re all here on this earth, so as long as its done safely and you’re doing the right thing I don’t see any problem with it. “We’re all human beings.”

Carl, who then lived in Harkaway, has since worked with Windermere as it expanded from 10 staff members, some working for free, to about 200. And the current CEO at Windermere, Dr Lynette Buoy, is thrilled for Carl’s OAM. “He has been an inspiration to everyone he meets, both professionally and personally and has always
gone above and beyond to support, guide and promote Windermere’s interests and its role in the community,” Dr Buoy said. A previous chairman at Windermere, Carl said he was “extremely humbled” to be awarded an OAM. “There are a lot of other people who do a lot more work than I do and probably not recognised,” he said.
Now residing in Middle Park, Carl is also responsible for founding and funding Windermere’s Achievers Program and the Kids Becoming Champions program. Carl was also the founding chair of the Embryonic Stem Cells International and an advisory board member at the Institute for Reproduction and Development.

CARL Strachan’s Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) all started with a beer at the Berwick Inn 35 years ago. That beer has paid dividends for the south-east region’s welfare support service, Windermere, and has meant a new and improved watering hole for Berwick. So it may not have been through his chain of thriving pubs, from his first in Cooktown to his second in South Melbourne, that has earned Carl his OAM, but it sure did set him on the right path. A month away from his 80th birthday, the businessman from Cohuna who has two sons, recalled what has brought him to receive such “humbling” recognition. “Then in my fifties, I called into the little Berwick Inn on the corner - it was just sitting there with vacant land behind it - to have a beer one Saturday, and I thought it was an interesting little spot,” Carl said. And before he knew it, Carl had bought the little pub on the corner. “I bought it not knowing what to do with it, and I thought, ‘let’s restore it and build it up as Berwick grew’.” But it was Berwick’s growing welfare needs that struck a chord with Carl 24 years ago more than a beer at the corner pub. “Windermere, who I’d never heard of, came to me and asked me for some money. “They told me their story, and I thought it was nice, so I went down and had a look at what they did every day and it shocked me,” Carl said. “I thought ‘this can’t be happening in our community’.”

NAIDOC Reconciliation Week at Berwick Secondary College showed off the school Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS through red, black and yellow. 155056 This outlines the suggestion by councillors Rafak Kaplan and Rosalie Crestani of a project to establish a tourist attraction of “1000 steps” to the top of the hill at Narre Warren North. At the top of the hill is a reserve named Kurll Park. This piece of land was donated to the community in 1974 by local farmers Mr and Mrs Reg and Lil Kurll. They were public spirited people who did a lot for the community, including the local Scout Group and many other organisations. Their names should not be expunged from the historical records. What a travesty to rename the park, as suggested by councillor Crestani, to become Bayview Park in the name of Bayview Quarry. The only claim to fame of Bayview Quarry is mining and desecrating the countryside! There would be a public outcry if it was suggested to rename Wilson Park to become Boral Park. John Ide, Berwick.

IN RELATION to the draft budget, Casey has been told there is no need to cut any planned infrastructure projects as it is flush with funds and has no case to raise rates above the state cap. In fact, having read the report from the ESC, it could easily be argued that any rate rise could, and should be lowered below the 2.5 per cent cap. On another issue, there are council elections around the corner with some aspirants looking for any expenditure they can highlight as a potential cut to the budget. May I suggest that informed, researched decisions accompany proposals and perhaps a case for requesting the budget and the entire 5000 plus line items in the budget be released for all to read before targeting Casey council’s investment in proven strategies, such as graffiti abatement. A clean city adds value to residential values, the net worth, perception and attitude of entire suburbs, encourages a sense of family and safety, deters criminal activity and has been shown to attract corporate and retail investment offering jobs and further investment throughout our communities. Pathways that lead to greater economic development, opportunities for local employment, and cleaner suburbs we can all be proud of is money well spent and money well invested. I, for one, often point out that rates and costs need to be cut at Casey but not from programs that add value to our entire community. The best outcome for our city is for Casey to be among the most celebrated and desirable places to live in Victoria. Funds that generate positive outcomes need to be supported. If candidates wish to target expenditure, request a copy of the budget in full, currently denied to ratepayers, and request a performance review of council operations, independent of the CEO and mayor to ensure every dollar is invested wisely. Otherwise, lay off looking to cut funds that add incredible value to our community. Steve Beardon, Lynbrook.
THE colouring book craze has Casey seniors rediscovering their inner child. The pastime is proving so popular that the next Great Art Show has a colouring award specifically for seniors. Organiser Calvin Bell said the Great Art Show was a major visual art event in the City of Casey. “We are excited that we are the first art show to have dedicated section for seniors colouring in,” Mr Bell said. “We like to be at the forefront of innovation.” Mr Bell said all seniors were invited to exhibit and possibly sell their finest colouring in from colouring in books or printed from the web. All works must be done in pencil only and displayed in a frame with wire or string ready for hanging. Entries close on 24 August. The Great Art Show will be held at Nossal High School between 16 and 18 September. For more information contact Judy on 9704 8376 or Rhonda on 9707 4286 or visit www.artshowsofoz.com.

AN ENDEAVOUR Hills man has been arrested after an alleged car-jacking followed by a 25-minute police pursuit in Carrum Downs and Dandenong in the early hours of Wednesday 15 June.
The car-jacking victim told police he was threatened with a handgun and his Hyundai ix35 stolen in the driveway of a business in Ashley Avenue, Frankston, about 12.35am. The stolen car was spotted by Somerville Highway Patrol officers who followed from a distance and then initiated a pursuit. During the chase, the stolen car’s 22-yearold driver pulled into a driveway in Dandenong, tried to run away and was arrested, police said. He is assisting police in their inquiries. Police are investigating whether another man was also involved in the theft of the car. He may have left the scene in a black Holden Commodore just prior to the stolen car taking off, police said. The handgun is yet to be recovered.

Dial up a hero By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS IT’S a good thing that Doveton’s Mia Curtis has a calm head in a crisis. In a matter of fact way she recounts how she called triple zero to help her mum Samia Ghasi who was struck down with a heart attack as she lifted a bed at home last August. An overcome Ms Ghasi, whose heart was racing with palpitations, was battling to breathe and couldn’t talk. She just pointed to a phone dial pad and seven-year-old Mia - with no one else at home - did the rest. During the call to triple zero, Mia followed the instructions
1231011-KC24-16
from operator Neville Stella. She relayed her address, moved pillows under her prone mother’s feet, routinely reported on her mother’s medical condition - and asked a few personal details about Neville, like his name - until paramedics arrived. “He asked me if he could talk with her but there was no response,” Mia told Star News. Mia felt “a little bit” anxious at the time. “It’s happened a couple of times before but there were adults there then. “Kids are usually calmer in a crisis because they’re used to teachers and parents telling
them what to do.” A proud Ms Ghasi underwent heart surgery and is now back at home. For her actions, Mia received a Triple-Zero Hero award from the Emergency Services Telecommunications Authority along with another 28 kids. Unsurprisingly, she dealt with the presentation with aplomb. After getting her face on TV, her St Paul Apostle South School schoolmates in Endeavour Hills are her “number one fans”. She won a certificate and a showbag of treats - “and a day off from school”, she added.

Fireys unite By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS and VICTORIA STONE-MEADOWS
“It’s causing a divide between volunteers themselves, the staff and volunteers, but things are good down at our station.” He said he stood “firmly behind” the State Government, which has moved to replace the CFA board. “I just want to get it sorted. It needs to be resolved yesterday.” Volunteers and paid firefighters also staff the Cranbourne CFA. Cranbourne career firefighter and UFU delegate Geoff Barker said the mental health of firefighters was at risk if the dispute continued. “The vilification of firefighters in the media causes a great deal of grief and despair to the mental health of career firefighters “We require leadership from CFA to defend the professionalism and integrity of its workforce. “At the moment there is a deathly silence from headquarters. “While they defend the EBA position they are allowing disgraceful attacks on career firefighters.” The three-year dispute between the UFU and the State Government reached a tipping
point last week when the CFA board refused to sign the proposed enterprise bargaining agreement. The CFA put forward 14 objections to the proposed agreement that they argue disenfranchise and disempower CFA volunteers and will have a major disruption to firefighting operations. CFA District 8 operations manager Mark Kennedy said the politicised dispute was having wide-reaching negative effects for CFA members. Mr Barker said despite the negative attention, the proposed EBA will have no effect on the way paid and volunteer firefighters interact at integrated CFA stations. “Many of the conditions in the EBA are things we already do in the stations.” Mr Barker said the volunteers and paid staff at Cranbourne CFA would continue to work together once the EBA dispute had been settled. “Career firefighters will continue to respect and value the work of volunteers and we have a great relationship with volunteers in our district,” he said. “Nothing will prevent us delivering a service that meets the expectation of the community.”

VOLUNTEER and staff firefighters at Casey fire brigades are maintaining a united stand despite an acrimonious threeyear industrial dispute between the CFA, the United Firefighters Union and the State Government. At Hallam fire brigade, professionals - represented by the UFU - and volunteers fight blazes side by side. Volunteer firey of 10 years Raj Faour says that will continue despite the political “mess” that has ousted Emergency Services Minister Jane Garratt and unseated the CFA board. “I’m a big advocate for staff and volunteers working hand in hand. We both need one another and stand in solidarity with one another. “We just want to reassure the community everything is OK here. There’s nothing to worry about in terms of their safety.” Mr Faour says clauses giving UBU the power of veto on attending fires was not a cause of concern. It actually helped to ensure there were adequate resources for each incident, he said. “It’s unfortunately all over the news and the media.

PEARCEDALE’S Moonlit Sanctuary recently welcomed a couple of new additions - two Australian owlet-nightjars to join its wildlife park. The duo arrived from Perth as part of the preserve’s threepronged species selection criteria which focuses on housing local, threatened and educationally beneficial animals. Director Michael Johnson said the sanctuary, particularly through its guided evening tours, aimed to provide people with a glimpse into the lives of night-time wildlife. “We’re trying to show people animals that are found in our region they don’t see at daytime on our evening tours,” Johnson said. And after resettling from the other side of the country, Johnson said the pair had made themselves right at home. “They’ve settled in brilliantly, I was on a night tour with them and they were quite active. They quite enjoy themselves;

Colin Alderson at Freedom Fields. “He made the suggestion that perhaps I should get a horse to train and he’d finance me.” Colin worked up to three jobs at times during his journey, including a milk round with a horse and cart. He counts 1999 Caulfield Cup winner Sky Heights as his most successful horse. Among his greatest achievements is the Cranbourne Training Centre, where about 150 trainers work with up to 800 horses.
He worked with Tommy Harrison to secure finance and design the facility. Colin has been the ATA president since 1997 and was the Victorian branch president from 1992 to 2012. “We’ve just got the racing industry to come on board to help with the collection of bad debts where owners will be banned from racing if they don’t meet their bad debts,” he said. “I think that’s probably the big-
gest thing we’ve done in my time in the training association, to give them some security.” Cranbourne Racing Centre will host a lunch to celebrate Colin’s career on Friday 24 June. “It’s a passion. It’s a disease, in one way, to be a horse person,” he said. “It’s like alcohol - you’re not an alcoholic until you have a drink. “Once you’ve had it you won’t walk away from it.”

THE horse bug bit Colin Alderson early and the “disease” has paid off in spades. A Medal of the Order of Australia in the Queen’s Birthday Honours List on Monday 13 June recognised Colin’s instrumental role in establishing the Cranbourne Training Centre and his dedication to supporting fellow trainers that’s spanned more than three decades. “You don’t go into things like trainers’ associations or racing expecting to get awards - you do it for the benefit of racing and trainers,” he said. Colin has been a licensed horse trainer since 1966 and owns Alderson Racing which is based at his Bayles home Freedom Fields. He officially retired from training earlier this year and his daughter Cindy took over the business. “She’s trying to manage a stable of 35 horses on her own,” he said. His son Steven was to join her but tragedy struck in January. “He was up in Brisbane at the Magic Millions sales,” he said. “He didn’t wake up one morning. He just had a heart attack and died.” Colin’s dad was a trainer. “I grew up in that environment and then I, as I got older, I took up riding and rode as a picnic jokey for a while,” he said. “You can see by my size it didn’t last long!” He met his wife Lyn through breaking in a horse for her family when they were 16. “My father-in-law was the first instigator of me taking out a trainer’s licence,” he said.

Federal election countdown
Labor woos voters By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS
LABOR has pledged up to $20 million for 1600 technical education places in a pilot scheme in Berwick, if the party wins government on 2 July. Opposition Higher Education Spokesman Kim Carr, with La Trobe ALP candidate Simon Curtis, said the proposed Commonwealth Institute of Higher Education would “fill a big hole” in the education system. The institute will offer two-year sub-degree courses at advanced diploma and associate degree levels, with a focus on “employability”, Mr Carr said. Students would have a “high-skill exit qualification”, with the option of going onto university. The ALP will pledge similar institutes in Frankston and Preston, and nationally, as part of
its 2 July Federal Election pitch. The Berwick institute’s $20 million federal funding was subject to a joint funding agreement with the Victorian Government. Mr Carr said increasing numbers of unprepared students were being signed up for university, with many dropping out or failing. Half of students with entrance scores less than 50 and enrolled in university did not succeed, he said. “We’re filling a gap in the education system, particularly in areas such as this.” He cited the Casey area’s economic downturn, higher-than-average unemployment and the need to teach a technical skills-set for manufacturing and material-science jobs. “Educational attainment is way under par,” Mr Carr said.
“Engagement with the higher education system is lower than we want to see.” The institute would be partnered by Chisholm Institute and the future operator of the soon-to-bevacated Monash University site in Berwick, Mr Carr said. “We’d like to see that we continue to offer higher education at the (university) site. That we ... ensure people of this region get entitlements that the rest of the state gets.” La Trobe ALP candidate Simon Curtis said he’d advocated for such an Institute at the site which linked education and skills to “real jobs”. He said La Trobe incumbent Jason Wood had known of Monash’s potential closure at Clyde Road for two years, but “nothing’s been done to ensure its future”.
Kim Carr and Simon Curtis announce the ALP’s plan for higher education in Berwick 155539 Picture: CAM LUCADOU-WELLS Training and Skills Minister Steve Herbert said the state government looked forward to supporting “these industry linked institutions in partnership with our TAFEs and universities”. “Victoria has the best universities and TAFEs in Australia and this will only be enhanced with the introduction of Commonwealth Institutes of Higher Education.”

Tests help catch risks early in life BOWEL cancer, also called colorectal cancer, is the second most common cancer in both men and women in Australia. Eighty per cent of cases have no known hereditary genetic associations. Bowel cancer is preceded by adenomas (polyps), which may become invasive cancer if undetected. Around 90 per cent of bowel cancers are curable if caught early. Yet currently fewer than 40 per cent are being detected in the early stages. June is Bowel Cancer Awareness Month and St John of God Berwick Hospital will support Red Apple Day on Wednesday 22 June to raise awareness and funds for Bowel Cancer Australia. Michael and Irene Ajani, owners of 9Mile Fresh, will donate red apples which will be sold for a gold coin donation and will also be included in the lunch menu offered to patients. St John of God Berwick Hospital has a team of gastroenterologists, colorectal surgeons and oncologists that can assist in the diagnosis and treatment of colon cancer. A diagnosis is made via colonoscopy and this procedure along with surgery and chemotherapy, if required, can all be accessed at St John of God Berwick Hospital. Cancer Council Australia recommends all Australians aged 50 and over screen for bowel cancer with a faecal occult blood test (FOBT) every two years. The government currently sends free FOBT tests to all 50, 55, 60 and 65-year-olds. By 2020 the free screening will be every two years. If you are not in the eligible age brackets under the national screening program, you can still be tested. Contact your general practitioner (GP) to discuss your screening options.
Healthy eating can reduce the risks. Your GP can request a faecal occult blood test which is eligible for a Medicare benefit. The risk of bowel cancer can be reduced by not smoking, a healthy diet with plenty of fresh fruit and vegetables, and maintaining a healthy body weight. Risk factors include age, inherited genetic risk, inflammatory bowel disease, obesity and smoking. Symptoms of colorectal cancer include change in bowel habit with diarrhoea, constipation or the feeling of incomplete emptying, thin bowel movements, blood in the motion or abdominal bloating or cramping. More general symptoms are tiredness, weight loss and unexplained anaemia. Mr Brian Hodgkins, Mr Phil Harris and Mr James Lim are colorectal surgeons who operate at St John of God Berwick Hospital. Mr Hodgkins consults at Berwick and for appointments call 9707 0685. Mr Harris (Casey Surgical Group) consults in Berwick and for appointments call 9707 3664. Mr James Lim also consults in Berwick and Dandenong and can be contacted on 9793 2687. Talk to a GP if there are any concerns for a referral to a specialist.

Federal election countdown
Business profile
Labor’s fresh hope By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS SIMON Curtis is having his first tilt at a federal election but is no stranger to politics or to Berwick. Mr Curtis, running as the ALP candidate for La Trobe, is part of seven generations who have lived in Berwick for the past 160 years. His grandmother and greatgrandmother were housekeepers for La Trobe’s first MP Richard Casey (later Lord Casey, Governor-General of Australia) who was “very good to my family,” Mr Curtis said. Mr Curtis still owns a picture of himself as a toddler sitting on Lord Casey’s knee. Mr Curtis is at political odds with this lineage: Lord Casey stood for Labor’s rival, the Liberal Party. Mr Curtis describes his own parents as Liberal-leaning but not “parochial”. “My family have always discussed politics at home but never in a parochial way. It was always an open discussion. “The news was always on. Politics was always something I was interested in.” Mr Curtis studied a politics major at university. His keen sense of “social justice” ignited in reaction to the state’s former Liberal Premier Jeff Kennett in the 1990s. “I could see the damage he was doing to this state. “I think taking care of people ... it’s always been a party of the ethics of my family background and my community background.” Ahead of the 2 July election, Mr Curtis nominates “saving” Medicare
Simon Curtis in front of a statue of Lord Richard Casey in Berwick Picture: CAM LUCADOU-WELLS Village. 155585 and a strong education system as the electorate’s chief concerns. He says elderly voters are switching long-held Liberal allegiances over concerns about pension and
superannuation changes but especially the expected expenses under Medicare. “I’ve had doctors say to me they have had patients not gone off to
their tests because of the out-ofpocket expenses. “That’s not the kind of health system we want.” Mr Wood has promised a suite of projects such as a Puffing Billy centre, Monash Freeway upgrade and funds for the civic-arts precinct Bunjil Place. Mr Curtis said his vision was for “genuine action for the community”. He accused sitting La Trobe MP Jason Wood of “never securing any money in the budget for important infrastructure” in the electorate. “What we see is a Member of Parliament standing for elections since 2004 that has never achieved any infrastructure spend of significance for these suburbs.” When asked about the Coalition’s $1 billion plan to widen the Monash Freeway, Mr Curtis says “it’s not about making pork-barrelling promises”. Mr Curtis noted that Victoria’s share of Federal infrastructure funding was about eight per cent despite having about 24 per cent of the national population. “It’s about ensuring we fund Infrastructure Australia to deliver on these projects of national and local significance, rather than politicians coming out and making bold statements. “You can’t just have buzz words such as ‘agile’ and ‘nimble’ that this Prime Minister (Malcolm Turnbull) likes to use, while failing to invest in education and stripping jobs from CSIRO.”
School helps all to speak Greek MORPHOSI Greek Language School is an ethnic school that started four years ago at Keysborough Secondary College every Saturday. Although it’s a small school, the teachers, parents and students are aiming for high achievements. At Morphosi not only do students learn how to master the Greek language but also learn about Greek culture, dance, music, theatre and religion. An open/fun day is to be held on Saturday 18 June. Go along and see the program and join a hip-hop workshop by Michael (Katumba Dancers).

AWARD-WINNING developer Dacland’s first community in Melbourne’s south-east Lochaven - is proving extremely popular with only a handful of lots left unsold after the weekend. The 66-hectare site on the corner of Hall and Evans roads will become home to around 500 families in Cranbourne West. Almost 90 per cent of available lots in the first release were sold on Lochaven’s opening day, Saturday 4 June. Dacland managing director John Dywer was not surprised by the result. “Lochaven is in a fantastic location and Dacland’s reputation for creating beautiful sought after places to live clearly appeal. We had over 450 registrations of interest before we launched selling so we knew this new community was going to be extremely popular.” Lochaven will include an eight-hectare school and 10 hectares of Dacland’s signature beautifully landscaped green open space. It also incorporates a nine-hectare retirement village, and a Woolworths supermarket will be central to a six-hectare neighbourhood activity centre. At the heart of Lochaven is an impressive central park that contours around the area’s existing waterway and opens into a series of smaller, interconnected parks. This is central to developing Lochaven’s truly integrated community, as the open space and

pathways link all aspects of people’s lives through a natural parkland corridor. “Residents will be able to walk to everything they need for quality living in 21st century Melbourne,” Mr Dywer said. A sense of place has always been important to Dacland. John L. Dwyer, founder of the family-owned company, came from farming stock. It’s something that makes Dacland’s second-generation managing director John C. Dwyer very proud. “For us, heritage is an important part of creating authentic communities. It’s essential to our philosophy as a developer, especially in a place such as Lochaven where the land has been managed by several generations of the same family.” Street names throughout Lochaven are drawn from McNab memories and milestones. The name itself, Lochaven, evolved as a nod to the Scottish heritage of the family, and Dacland even created a commemorative coffee table book in appreciation of the McNabs’ century on the land. “This collection of memories and photos creates an awareness of special experiences, large and small, that we hope will enrich the lives of the families who move in and make a place of their own,” Mr Dwyer said. Dacland intends releasing more lots at Lochaven next month. For more information see www.Lochaven.com.au.

NEW PARK AT TIMBERTOP THE long awaited Neighbourhood Park is coming soon to Timbertop Estate, Officer, with works commencing. The two hectare park, located in the heart of the estate, will be just one of many places to relax on the weekend at Timbertop, including the popular Timber Mill Café. Offering something for everyone, the
park will include picturesque walking tracks, playground equipment for the kids, barbeque facilities and picnic area for Sunday lunches, and a large kickabout area for sport lovers. It has walking paths surrounded by native planting so visitors can go for a leisurely stroll and take in stunning views at various lookout points on the trail.
Completion of the park is expected to be late 2016, just in time for summer. Ben and Sarah Manelski are building their home at Timbertop and are looking forward to enjoying the new park with their daughters. “The girls love to get outside - they love to play and run around so it’ll be great to have the park,” Sarah said.
With places to explore and entertain in a safe, friendly community, Timbertop is more than just a land estate, it’s a way of life. Stay up to date with what else is changing at Timbertop Estate on the Facebook page - www.facebook.com/ timbertopestate or visit timbertopestate. com.au.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
They’re making the future by NARELLE COULTER IN THE future, households won’t buy refrigerators, they will “hire cold hours“ and “wearables“ won’t only clothe people but monitor the environment and turn body heat into electricity. Those were two predictions made at a manufacturing and future industries forum held at the Sofitel on Tuesday 7 June. Sponsored by the Casey Cardinia Region, the forum featured representatives from the CSIRO, the State Government and the Australian Industry Group. CSIRO deputy director of manufacturing Cathy Foley said in the future manufacturing would become a service industry. She predicted the evolution of cars that would monitor how we drive with the information fed back to insurance companies and “wearables“ that would monitor the environment around us, including the quality of the oxygen we breathe, directly affecting health insurance premiums. She said the problem of clothing going to landfill would be solved by “dissolve on demand“ threads and instead of buying a refrigerator, customers would purchase “cooling hours“, with the manufacturer responsible for monitoring when the appliance needed fixing and recycling it at the end of its life. Ms Foley said these ideas were being developed now in universities and the CSIRO. It’s a high tech future the Casey
From left, CSIRO manufacturing deputy director Cathy Foley, executive director of the Australian Advanced Manufacturing Council Jennifer Conley, executive director of the Future Industries Project Michael Green, Ray Keefe from Success Endeavours, Tim Leeds from Melbourne Rotomould and chief economist with the Australian Industry Group Julie Toth. Cardinia region is keen to be a part of. The region is making a concerted push to attract manufacturing and especially smart manufacturing in order to create jobs, cut down commute times and improve the health and wellbeing of the entire community. Cardinia CEO Garry McQuillan said jobs and innovation were vitally important to the region, which was one of the fastest growing in Australia and
would eventually boast a population the size of Canberra. He said manufacturing accounted for more than 20 per cent of the region’s output. “We see advanced manufacturing as crucial to the ongoing success of our economy and is directly linked to employment opportunities for our 400,000 residents of today,“ he said. “Seventy per cent of our working
population leave the municipality and head to the Monash. On average they spend two hours on the Monash. Fifty per cent of the Cardinia population suffers from obesity and we have one of the highest domestic violence rates in the state. Jobs are critical.“ Chief economist with the Australian Industry Group Julie Toth said despite the demise of Australia’s auto industry and the loss of jobs in the sector, 18 per
cent of manufacturing jobs or 200,000 positions had been lost since 2008, the news was not all bad. She said the biggest growth areas were food, beverages and groceries. Pharmaceuticals were also on a growth trajectory, as were cosmetics, toiletries and vitamin and health supplements. “These are all areas of production where quality control is paramount and they have also benefited from the (lower) Australian dollar,“ she said. “Ten to 15 years ago, the expansion was in cars and heavy machinery. It’s more now in food and beverages.“ Ms Toth said domestic construction demand was contributing to a strong building materials, industrial textiles and furniture sectors. She said 20,000 businesses in Australia were identified as advanced manufacturers. Dr Michael Green, executive director of the Future Industries Project said the Casey Cardinia region was perfectly poised to become a major centre of food manufacturing. He said the region’s location on the edge of the urban growth boundary and clean, green image was a distinct advantage “The Casey Cardinia region has a lot of manufacturing capability and there are a lot of opportunities in the south east region.“ Mr Green said State Government investment in high velocity trains and Federal Government defence contracts were both manufacturing opportunities for the region.

THE key to TRJ Engineering thriving as a manufacturer is it “got off our bums and found work”, said its managing director David Murphy. The Hallam-based business, which employs 30 people and turns over $5 million a year, was named as a finalist at the recent 2016 Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards. It has not shed a job in recent times despite the challenging times for manufacturing, including the wind-down of Australia’s automotive industry, Mr Murphy said. “We’ve actually employed 10 or so more people since 2008,” he said. Apart from effort, the manufacturer has also drummed up business because of its versatility. Much of its work comes from making B-double truck
chassis, as well as vandal covers and safety handles for earthmoving equipment and stylish, custom street furniture locally and across the nation. As part of its “high end, high impact” work, TRJ made the striking, custom bins, bike racks and benches in the Revitalising Central Dandenong project and the seats in the recent revamp of Eaton Mall, Oakleigh. It has produced bins, illuminated signs, benches in Argyle Square, Carlton, a toilet block, barbecues for the City of Melbourne, as well as custom work for Perth and Randwick city councils. Mr Murphy’s motto is that the company will make anything, with the help of design software that produces 3D models. “Our skill sets are really high. There’s nothing we can’t have a crack at. “I’d go stir-crazy if we were
just doing the same thing each day.” Mr Murphy’s father Terry started the company in a small factory in 1974. David joined the business 20 years ago, initially reluctant to work for the “old man”. He now holds the reins of this family company with some pride. “Whether or not it goes for another generation, we’ll see,” Mr Murphy said. TRJ’s services include metal fabrication, all types of welding, laser and guillotine cutting, general engineering, powder coating, and brake pressing. Another Hallam business Dorma, which is part of an international manufacturing chain that makes automated door and gate operating systems, was also a finalist at the Victorian Manufacturing Hall of Fame Awards. For more on Dorma’s story, see Star News next week.

Centre’s council squeeze By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS CASEY council has mothballed a family and community centre in Autumn Place, Doveton, in response to the rejection of its proposed 3.47 per cent rate rise for 2016-17. The $3.4 million project to replace outdated 40-year-plus child and maternity health centre and pre-school buildings with a modern one-stop shop is badly needed, say councillors Damien Rosario and Wayne Smith. The councillors said the long-awaited project, which is planned to start in 2017-18 and finish the following financial year, was now facing, at best, further delays. “It’s not in the budget for the future,” Cr Smith said. “It’s disappointing. You’re talking about the most disadvantaged community in the city.” Cr Rosario said a new wave of demand was created by young families, many new arrivals to Australia, settling in the area. “Doveton is a growing young community. Doveton is one of the first places they come to.” On 31 May, the Essential Services Commission rejected Casey’s application to raise rates above the 2.5 per cent rate cap in part due to the council’s strong finances - including a $33.9 million underlying surplus in 2016-17. Casey’s proposed 0.97 per cent increase - or $14 a household on top of the 2.5 per cent
rate rise - would have raised an extra $1.6 million in 2016-17. The ESC noted Casey had “historically” underspent on its capital works budget - saving on average $14 million a year over the past five years. It also factored in the $2.5 million allocated to the council from the state’s Interface Growth Fund. Cr Smith said the council was “flush with funds” but they could not be tapped for the Autumn Place development. The funds, raised by developer contributions, were earmarked for new estates’ infrastructure such as roads and facilities. “The older areas like Doveton, Hallam and Hampton Park don’t have access to those sort of reserves.” Since the ESC decision, the council has also dropped plans for a Hunt Club Football and Cricket Recreation Facility, Cranbourne East from its $149 million capital works program. Mayor Sam Aziz said the ESC decision was an “unacceptable act of economic vandalism” that didn’t consider Casey’s continued growth. Brendan Browne of the Casey Residents and Ratepayers Association said talk of an infrastructure black hole was “just scaremongering”. “The commission found that there are options available to the council to ensure these projects (such as the Autumn Place facility) proceed.”

Reckless rampage ended by arresting citizen By GEORGIA WESTGARTH A CITIZEN’S arrest brought an 18-yearold from Berwick to justice after two days of rampaging through Casey in an allegedly stolen car. Police said a carjacking started a string of crimes on Sunday 12 June, when the teen is alleged to have jumped in a gold Nissan Maxima while the owner was loading the boot with groceries, at the Parkhill Plaza in Berwick, about 10.15pm.
The Nissan, with registration QUR 075, was running with its keys in the ignition at the time it was taken. The following day, the car was used to steal petrol from a Caltex service station in Berwick before it nearly caused a multi-vehicle car crash in Cranbourne North. Between 12.40pm and 1.15pm that same day, the stolen car was seen driving erratically on the wrong side of the road at the intersection of Thompsons Road and Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road.
Several drivers had to take swift action to avoid colliding with the stolen Nissan. Later that same day the Maxima crashed into a car after trying to overtake a person turning right into the Berwick Church of Christ on Centre Road. Both cars sustained serious damage. The teenager tried to run away from the scene of the accident but was arrested by a witness of the crash and was held in a citizen’s arrest until police arrived. The witness was bitten on the chest
while holding the suspect and sustained redness and bruising. The 18-year-old was arrested and charged with 10 offences including theft of a motor car, dangerous driving, recklessly causing injury, unlicensed driving and possession of cannabis and methamphetamine. Detectives from Casey CIU are requesting that anyone who saw the stolen car around Berwick and Cranbourne North areas to call Detective Senior Constable David Sweeney on 9705 3178.
Police swoop on drugs CASH and more than three tonnes of drugs were seized by police after warrants were executed throughout north-west Melbourne, with a Hampton Park man charged. It’s alleged a total of around 3.8 tonnes of 1,4 butanediol, 6kg of ecstacy, 3kg of ice and 15kg of dried cannabis was seized along with a substantial amount of cash. Warrants were executed on Tuesday 14 June at properties in Lygon Street, Brunswick, Racecourse Road, Flemington, Ashley Street, Braybrook and Station Street, Coburg. Detectives arrested five men and one woman who faced an out of sessions hearing last night charged with trafficking a large commercial quantity of illicit drugs. Those included a 25-year-old Coburg man, 30-year-old Hampton Park man, 29-year-old Glenroy man, 30-year-old Keilor East man, 29-year-old Craigieburn man and a 25-year-old woman. Investigators allegedly recovered a firearm and stolen vehicle in Derrimut Street, Albion. The men and woman were remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Wednesday 15 June.

Larnie’s striving to soar By JARROD POTTER HOPING to soar higher in her beloved gridiron, a rare state-level experience has only pushed Larnie Gubatanga to work harder. Flying into the Victorian Eagles squad, Gubatanga, 23, from Narre Warren North, was the sole Berwick Diamond to make the state squad and made her inclusion on the big stage count. Taking to the field in the inaugural state clash between Victoria and the ACT Monarchs and switching from running-back to slot receiver, Gubatanga took to the new position with gusto as she toiled in the less familiar role to push the Victorians to a 38-24 triumph. The Victorians had to come from behind after trailing the Monarchs 1824 in the second quarter but the superior legs of the visitors came to the fore to set up the 16-point victory. “It was so interesting, as soon as we arrived on the field, had to be there 4.30. “There was a rugby game before us and the girls were sitting and watching
and were so excited,” Gubatanga said. “We were wearing all our merchandise and it just felt all official and real - was really great.” Gubatanga believes the Victorian vigour showed the country that the southern state is more than capable of matching it with anyone in coming national championships - whether by foot or in the air. “How we played on the day we showed, not just NSW and ACT, but the rest of the leagues that we can not only run the ball, but pass it too and we’re a well-rounded team,” Gubatanga said. “The first half was pretty even, I think we were tied, but the second half we were just able to punch in the win. “Our defence held on, making sure their offence wasn’t moving anywhere, and our offence was moving the ball so well. Gubatanga wasn’t just playing in a different side to usual, but also different positions as she lined up as a punt-returner on occasion, setting up a touchdown with a gutsy return through the Monarch’s defence.
“I had a good return. I caught the ball which was the achievement as I don’t really catch the ball but I had a great return that set up a quick touchdown,” Gubatanga said. One run-around in the Victorian colours isn’t enough for the shining Diamond though as she hopes an even better Gridiron Victoria women’s season in 2017 pushes her case for another Eagles inclusion. “It definitely makes me want to improve my own game,” Gubatanga said. “Training with the state players and coaches makes me realise what I need to work on and makes me want to do better this season and try again next year.” Berwick Diamonds are on the lookout for new recruits ahead of next year’s season.

Pies steam-roll over Scorpions By JARROD POTTER
Eddie Morris snatches up a contested possession on a brutal day at Casey Fields. 155468
VFL - ROUND 9 STORMED on their home soil, Casey Scorpions left the arena muddied, bloodied and beaten by a fleet-footed Collingwood. The anticipation of a marquee televised match at Casey Fields didn’t live up to its billing as Collingwood steam-rolled the hosts in the wet-weather slug-out. After a captivating back-and-forth first term, with neither side truly seizing their chances early on, the match petered out for Casey. Tim Smith’s early goal proved a bookend for the Scorpions, as Ben Newton managed to boot the side’s second and final major in the fourth term. After he was unceremoniously dropped again, following last week’s loss to Port Adelaide, Collingwood forward Travis Cloke (two goals) made the most of his latest VFL outing. Casey skipper Jack Hutchins had the hard task manning up on the premiership winning forward, but had good support with chopouts from Declan Keilty and Mitch White. Cloke snagged two for the day, dished off another and generally attacked anything within the Pies’ forward-50 to impress the sea of fans and not-quite fans which followed him from end to end. Across the board Casey had difficultly halting the Magpies’ march - with AFL-listed duo Adam Oxley and James Aish starring across the paddock. Four from the Pies in the final term shut the door on Casey’s chances and left the Scorpions with their second loss of the year and concerningly their second loss against a VFL top four side in 2016. “It was just a tough day,” Casey coach Justin Plapp said. “Certainly a really wetweather day of football and our players didn’t adjust quickly enough. “Collingwood were clearly better around the ball and played the conditions better than we did.
Travis Cloke made life difficult for Casey captain Jack Hutchins, but the skipper starred nonetheless in the toughest task of the day. 155468 Pictures: JARROD POTTER “There were patches in the game where we showed that we had the game on our terms, but we had an inability to score and goals became really crucial on the day like that, so all respect goes to them.” Keilty was best afield for his defensive efforts - and is quickly playing his way into AFL draft reckoning this year - alongside Viv Michie, Hutchins, Colin Garland and Jake Spencer. Matt Jones (32 possessions), Michie (27) and Alex Neal-Bullen (22) led the stat-sheet for Casey on a tricky day on field. Plapp praised Hutchins efforts against his powerhouse opponent, showing his credentials as one of the VFL’s best on the last line. “Jack is probably one of the most in form defenders in the competition and showed why he was on an AFL list,” Plapp said. “His role that he did on Cloke was very mature and very admirable role he played.” Sliding back to second on the VFL ladder, Casey heads up the hill to face North Ballarat on Saturday as part of a big month on the road. “That’s a challenge in itself - we have had a lot of home games and had good results but now we’ve got to do it on the road now,” Plapp said. “The North Ballarat trip is the
hardest of the lot - as we’ve travelled there a few times in the last few years and haven’t performed well. The Scorpions hosted a VFL Women’s curtain raiser, which ended with Darebin snaring a closely-contested 4.3(27) to 2.3(15) victory over Melbourne University in trying early morning conditions.

Mel’s keen to be seen By RUSSELL BENNETT LONG-TIME Berwick Miners coach Mel Martin thought his time in the game was up, until the Pakenham Silverbacks came calling. A stalwart of the game in Australia, and a Gridiron Victoria life member, Martin retired from gridiron at the end of last season - admitting he felt somewhat disillusioned. But when Richie Howlett - the Silverbacks’ co-founder and a former player under Martin at the Miners - called, Martin answered. The state coaching coordinator was initially reluctant to take on the head coaching role at Pakenham, in no small part due to the travel from his house in Croydon, but he ultimately grasped it with both hands. He couldn’t ignore the opportunity to help a club that’s still in its infancy, despite winning the Division 2 men’s championship in sensational scenes last season, and to develop the next wave of local playing and coaching talent. “I said I’d come and coach them on the proviso that we develop the coaches as well,” Martin said. “That’s basically why I’m here. “To be in the league as a club you need to have a certain level of coaching, and a pathway forward. “I’m concentrating on making sure these guys get the fundamentals down because ultimately
they’ll become better footballers and the club will be better for it. “These guys are basically selftaught but they’re eager to learn, and that’s what you want. “The playbooks I put in aren’t what you’d call super-sophisticated but they are new to them. They’ve taken to them really well.” Martin isn’t the only new face to enter the ‘jungle’ this year. The Silverbacks have also welcomed an American import quarterback, Kevin Russell from the University of Redlands. “There’s a website for American players to play elsewhere around the world,” Martin explained. “They put their details and highlights down on the site and it’s like a supermarket for players. It includes the Canadian, Arena and US College leagues. “I’ve already told him that his role will be to help develop the guys at the club. “In my usual manner, I’ve told him how it is - it’s American football, but this is no America. This isn’t the NFL, but he’s super excited to come out for a life experience, and get to play football at the same time. We’re excited to have him. It shifts the season more in our favour. This club has some very talented footballers, and he adds to that.” Martin said during his time at the Silverbacks he wants to help build the club for sustained - rather than short-term - success.

“That’s the thing - I’m just trying to add a bit of consistency in my game and so if I can start well and just need to finish well and that’s something I’m working on,” Jok said. “I’ve enjoyed every moment of the second chance. “I wasn’t around as much this time last year, just due to injury and school footy - but I’ve got a second chance and another go at it now and it’s a great opportunity and I’m doing everything I can to take it.” Vic Country coach Paul Henriksen was impressed with Jok’s efforts across his two Vic Country seasons and his absence on Monday for long stretches of the clash really hampered the side’s fightback. “Really hurt us while he was off the ground - with a shoulder injury for a while, a collarbone - that hurt us as the way it was,” Henriksen said. “He’s been quite good over the first two games, so I think there’s still another work in progress but he’s a likely type.” Jok has two more possible Vic Country outings against South Australia and the Allies to round out the championships before returning to Dandenong for remainder of his last TAC Cup season.

MAKING the most out of 2016, Tom Jok has ticked all the right boxes. With no school footy or major injuries halting his run at TAC Cup and Vic Country duties this year, Jok, 19, from Pakenham, has been in superb nick through the first eight rounds at Dandenong. Averaging 20 touches, five marks and four tackles a match, the Beaconsfield/Dandenong Stingrays roaming wingman did more than enough to earn a second campaign with Vic Country’s Under 18s. Despite the side’s win-loss record not looking as impressive as last season, after two early losses, Jok has relished his second chance to impress the football world. Jok was on song early for Vic Country in its Queen’s Birthday clash against Vic Metro at Simonds Stadium. An electric first term set the stage for Jok, as he was seemingly part of every passage through Vic country’s amazing five-goal opening quarter, but his match was derailed by a shoulder complaint. Despite the injury, Jok was pleased with his performance - racking up 16 possessions and five tackles in the two-point loss - but the heartbreak of a devastating defeat was at the front of his mind. “It’s good individually so far - playing my role and doing what I can for the team so far - but it’s just disappointing that we had our second loss in a row,” Jok said. “It’s pretty devastating - the WA loss was just down to who could be harder for longer and obviously they were and were more powerful, physical and showed it on the scoreboard. “With this game today (Monday) it was a grind out and who could take their opportunities and Metro probably deserved it.” After he was overlooked in the 2015 AFL national and rookie drafts, Jok has set about ramping up all aspects of his footy this time around and seizing the opportunity he’s been received again.

Thriller as Country falls By JARROD POTTER AFL NATIONAL UNDER-18 CHAMPIONSHIPS - ROUND 2 IT WAS a tale of two directions on Monday as Vic Metro fought back against Vic Country in a home-state thriller. In the age-old battle between the big smoke and the bush - this time held on a perfect winter’s day at Simonds Stadium, Geelong - Vic Metro managed to turn around a 20-point, three-quartertime deficit to snare the miraculous two-point triumph. It started well enough for the Country boys. Tommy Jok - featuring in his second Vic Country campaign - stole the show in the first quarter alongside Dandenong team-mate Myles Poholke. Jok would have his match hampered by a collarbone injury though, leaving the side another rotation down at the death knock as Sam Fowler (hip) had to leave the field too. North Ballarat’s Hugh McCluggage (three goals) alongside familiar faces Josh Battle and Ben Ainsworth - back in the mix after serving his four-week suspension - set the stage in the first term as they reaped the rewards of lace-out reception. Will Brodie had an assisting hand in the last three Vic Country goals of the term - with the Murray ball magnet racking it up across halfforward, slotting it onto the chest of Jarrod Berry, who dished off to Braidon Blake for the third of the term, as well as giving Willem Drew and Poholke a chance in front of the sticks. From a 22-point buffer at the first break, Vic Country started to fade away. The best efforts of Vic Country started to recede in the second stanza. Reece Piper and Oscar Clavarino provided a one-two Berwick punch through the back half in the first two terms, but there was too few adhering to the team tasks as Vic Metro responded in a massive fashion. The third term belonged to Morwell’s finest,
Ainsworth (four goals) - who slotted four majors in an extraordinary display. Showing the form that earned him All Australian honours in 2015, Ainsworth was electric in the forward half - whether on the lead, taking contested grabs or doing it himself at ground level. Vic Metro had no answers to his ironclad attack and in tandem with Brodie, Battle and Jarrod Korewha, really dictated terms. Vic Metro booted two against traffic, but by and large its third-quarter impact was nowhere to be found. Metro booted the first three of the last, with easy handballs out the back giving Tim Taranto and Jordan Lynch a chance to slash the margin, before a massive pack grab in the square from Dylan Clarke put it back to four. It left Vic Country to fight it out to the line in the final 15 minutes with the lead going back and forth. Metro’s Callum Brown got the snap out of the back of the pack to take the slender lead, before Mitch McCarthy and Poholke combined at the other end to regain a five-point margin. One last roll of the dice fell Vic Metro’s way in the last 70 seconds. Jaidyn Stephenson booted it long to the square where Daniel Venables floated across to pluck it out of thin air and seal the match winner. “Probably was just a game of chances - but we really focused on our chances after the match against WA last week,” Vic Country coach Paul Henriksen said. “For three quarters we were OK then they kicked nine or 10 goals last week and we didn’t give a whimper. “So really the emphasis this week was on effort and bringing it to the table - so in a funny way I was happy we brought that but you can’t be happy losing games of footy as it’s not that sort of business.” Henriksen praised Brodie’s in and under efforts and was impressed with Ainsworth’s second

Freezing for a good cause is our man Aussie Now, it’s back to the footy By RUSSELL BENNETT
JUST hours before the Big Freeze 2 at the MCG on Monday, Berwick business P3 held its own ‘Little Freeze’. Former St Kilda star and Narre Warren and Beaconsfield coach Aussie Jones runs P3 Sports and Recovery alongside great mate and two-time premiership winning coach with Cora Lynn, Travis Marsham. On Monday, the pair held the first ever ‘Little Freeze’ in honour of P3’s new swim instructor, Paula Olsson, whose husband suffers from Motor Neurone Disease. After listening to Neale Daniher’s story on the radio on the way into work recently, Marsham - together with Jones - was inspired to act. They made use of the facilities already at P3 - such as its ice bath - for the event. It was only $100 per nomination, plus a gold coin donation for anyone who wanted to go along and watch. All the money went straight to the Cure for MND Foundation, just like the Big Freeze at the MCG. A big crowd gathered to watch, with Jones, local identity Frank Welburn, former Essendon player and St Kilda recruit Jake Carlisle, and Australian fast bowler James Pattinson just a few of those who took the plunge on Monday. Marsham was the last to enter the icy water - which he made even colder earlier in the day by dumping nine bags of ice into the pool that was already set to 10 degrees. Getting right into the spirit of the occasion, he took the plunge fully-clothed - despite not having a change of clothes to wear afterwards. Jones was earlier joined in the water by his wife Kate and their little boy Kai, who was the first to jump after raising his own $100. Marsham said he hopes the Little Freeze becomes an annual event, with the aim of making next year’s version even bigger and better. All up, $1900 was raised at Monday’s event, which was then matched dollar-for-dollar by the Federal Government.

AFTER a stuttering start, the South East Football Netball League begins an uninterrupted run through to the finals on Saturday with Cranbourne and Beaconsfield stealing the spotlight at Casey Fields. Only two rounds have been played in the last month, with representative duties on May 21, and last week’s Queen’s Birthday weekend giving most players some time to rest up. In the clash of the Eagles Cranbourne, coming off a fantastic last-start performance against Doveton, should be too strong for Beaconsfield, while reigning champs Berwick should have no problem with Pakenham at Edwin Flack Reserve. The final game could be interesting, with Narre Warren taking on an improving Officer outfit at Kalora Park. The Magpies, despite the expected challenge, should still be too strong. Tooradin has the bye while Doveton and Hampton Park played their Round 9 contest in the season opener on Good Friday. Ladder: Berwick 32, Narre Warren 24, Cranbourne 24, Beaconsfield 24, Doveton 24, Officer 16, Pakenham 12, TooradinDalmore 4, Hampton Park 4.

Sporty Mazda has the power By DEREK OGDEN THE latest iteration of the Mazda MX-5 compact two-seater sportscar has won more than 65 major international awards, including the prestigious European Red Dot Best of the Best award which recognises exceptionally ground-breaking design, the UK Car of the Year, and the 2015-2016 Japan Car of the Year. It comes in two variants – Roadster and Roadster GT, with the 2.0-litre version rolling on 17-inch alloy wheels, as opposed to the 1.5’s 16-inch, and sporting daytime running lights. Designers were told to come up with proportions that would, short of plastic surgery, make occupants stand out and look good, especially with the top open and windows down. The front and rear overhangs are some of the shortest on the market; the cabin was moved slightly to the rear to match the position of the occupants’ heads, and the hip point of the seats lowered in conjunction with the new design’s low centre of gravity. The new rear design, with its Ushaped rear combination lamp cluster and round tail lamps, hark back to previous generations of the MX-5. The layout is plain and simple and is aimed at giving the driver real opentop sportscar pleasure. The steering wheel and three-meter

The meters, all trimmed with satin chrome rings, consist of a large analogue tachometer in the centre, a speedometer on the right and an information display on the left. The tacho and speedo feature vertical zero position needles; the water temperature gauge covers a higher temperature range to support spirited sports driving. Of two interior leather options, black represents pure sportiness, while
the Sport Tan presents a luxury character with good looks. Metallic finish is used on air-conditioning control dials and steering wheel spokes to attract the eyes or express rigidity.

The satellite navigation system, with smartphone connected, can also search for destinations and display the weather on route and live traffic. The engine, according to the maker, also delivers fuel consumption of 6.9

The use of high-strength steel and ultra-high tensile steel around the centre of the cabin, along with highstrength aluminium in the front bumper beam, reduce weight while achieving greater strength. Front and side airbags are standard across the MX-5 range while active safety includes Dynamic stability control, Anti-lock Braking with Electronic Brake-force Distribution, Emergency Brake Assist, Emergency Stop Signal and Hill Launch Assist. The MX-5 is by no means a perfect vehicle. With the fabric roof up it’s a matter of doubling up to get into the car; once in, there‘s no guarantee occupants can make themselves comfortable, so limited is the space. The steering wheel and its surrounds deserve a special mention. With a diameter of 366 mm, the steering wheel features a sharp, compact look, three slim spokes coated in satin chrome, and a grip covered in black leather with red stitching The grip and rim are designed to enable quick, precise steering wheel operation when negotiating winding roads. The Mazda range is available for test drive at Bruce Clough Mazda, Princes Highway, Nar Nar Goon. Phone 5942 5584.

THE Australian Audi R8 range consists of two cars, the V10 Coupe and the V10 Plus, the former weighing in at $354,900, the latter $389,900. Visually you can easily tell the two apart. From the front the Plus’s big grille is a glossy black. There’s a huge, DTM-inspired carbon fibre wing on the back, replacing the Coupe’s electric-lift wing that pops up at 120 km/h. The bigger differences are under the skin. Both run the same 5.2 litre V10 FSI paired with a sevenspeed dual-clutch transmission. The Coupe has a stout 397 kW with the Plus adding 52 kW for a grand total of 449 kW. The Plus also has different gear ratios from gears three to seven, the first two shorter to increase punch, the top two longer to eke out an extra 10km/h top speed (330 km/h, if you’re game). The R8’s interior is cool, clear and calm. The dash appears to float in the air and gives the cabin an airier, roomier feel. The driving position is also just right, with everything in a straight line. The new Audi R8 goes without the older car’s manual option, with a set of paddles attached to the flat-bottomed steering wheel. The Coupe has two buttons on the wheel, one to start the engine, the other to choose between driving modes.
Unmistakable style of the latest Audi R8 supercar is neat and very German. Comfort keeps things quiet while Dynamic amps things up considerably, including opening up the exhaust to let out the V10’s glorious racket. Audi R8 Plus gains the Performance dial, three more modes over and above Dynamic – Snow, Wet and Dry. Last but not least is a separate control for the exhaust, letting you float along in Comfort mode while crackling and popping as you lift off for that red light up ahead. Long, fast sweeping corners are easily dispatched in the V10 Plus and it’s a very convincing GT car. The only fault we could find was a propensity for a hefty metallic clunk to issue from the front wheels when skipping through divots in the road. A sudden heavy shower soaked the road – the R8 took it in its stride, the quattro allwheel drive keeping the car firmly planted. Running downhill is always a fantastic test of brakes and the carbon discs have excellent feel and don’t need a series of hard stops to get them working properly.
They’re easy to modulate, too, with finely judged travel and assistance. The V10 spins like a motorbike engine, careening to the redline with glee, the fully digital virtual cockpit instruments madly flashing red at you to shift up. The R8 turns out to be almost vice-free. Despite its allwheel drive, you can still trim the line with a lift or push of the throttle depending on what you want. The steering is sharp and light – that second attribute will cause some drivers a little heartache but it also means that the vast majority of the time when the car is used as a tool rather than a weapon, it won’t tire you out. Audi’s new R8 is probably the most low-key supercar you can buy and is bristling with technology that all just works letting you get on with the thing it’s built for – driving. For more information contact Audi Barry Bourke, 755 Princes Highway, Berwick. Phone 9707 2222.
