■ Naked driver on the run...

Wild cop chase

By Aneeka Simonis POLICE are yet to find the naked driver at the centre of a wild and dangerous pursuit which shocked motorists in the southeastern suburbs on Tuesday.

A teenage girl from Narre Warren, who was let out of the stolen getaway car in Pakenham, has been released by police pending further inquiries. The search for the driver - last seen heading toward the Western Port Highway from Cranbourne continues.

The pursuit began in Berwick about 10.10am on Tuesday 29 November, after police responded to a seemingly unstable naked man walking around a vacant block of land in Berwick.

Witness footage shows the man get into a reportedly stolen white Toyota Hilux bearing false plates, and drive from the vacant block with the female teen in tow.

The driver was picked up driving erratically on the Princes Freeway in Berwick, forcing a large-scale police chase which involved more than half a dozen police cars and the air wing.

Police pursued the car through Narre Warren, Pakenham and Berwick before terminating the pursuit in Cranbourne just after 11am.

The car was last seen on Cranbourne-Frankston Road in Cranbourne heading towards the Western Port Highway.

Casey Crime Investigation Unit (CIU) Detective Senior Constable Ray Gunton said a 19-year-old Narre Warren wom-

an was in the car throughout the pursuit, but was let out in Pakenham.

“It’s understood he was going to continue to drive and she was going to get out. She didn’t want to be involved in the matter any further,” he said.

She was taken in for questioning, but has since been released pending further inquiries.

At a media briefing after the incident, police would not confirm the pair’s relationship, but said the teen co-operated with police inquiries.

At least two police cars were damaged in the wild pursuit.

One was witnessed driving on Henry Road, Pakenham, with a damaged bumper, and another believed to be involved in the pursuit was towed away from Dandenong police station, covered in OC spray.

Footage also shows the car colliding with a ute in Cranbourne.

Det Sen Const Gunton said it was lucky no-one was seriously injured.

“It’s a great concern for us that this person has driven as erratically as he has. We ask this male to hand himself in to the nearest police station, so this matter can be resolved,” he said.

The car was fitted with false registration plates: AKC 72.

Police are appealing for anyone who may have witnessed the incident or who may have any footage to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or file a confidential report at www crimestoppersvic.com.au

Billy Slater will love the race A TROUBLESOME shoulder injury kept Melbourne Storm’s Billy Slater sidelined for the 2016 rugby league season, but that hasn’t stopped his love for racing.

The 2011 Dally M Medallist will be a special guest at the 2016 Superior Food Services Pakenham Cup at Racing.com Park in Tynong this Saturday, 3 December.

With his rehabilitation going strongly, he has embarked on a foray into thoroughbred breeding.

“I’m busier now that I’m not playing, compared to when I am playing!“ Slater laughed.

“I’m doing a lot of rehabilitation work and seeing a physiotherapist regularly, trying to manage the recovery. I visit the club a fair bit to be around the boys and it’s great to be back in that environment.“ Recovering from a long-term injury takes a little time, and Slater decided to focus on developing a small broodmare breeding farm with big ambitions.

“We’ve got a small property in Melbourne that we’re setting up as a breeding farm, and in four or five years I hope that we can get some breeding mares and continue to grow bigger.”

The farm recently saw the birthing of a Shooting To Win foal, the first of many says a hopeful Slater.

This foal, which the family has nicknamed ’TJ’ after Slater’s two young kids Tyla and Jake, will soon be sold to a trainer and hopefully be racing within two years.

In terms of advice on breeding, Slater has a few people he can lend

Rugby league champion Billy Slater with his former boss Gai Waterhouse.

Billy Slater with wife Nicole and children Tyla and Jake. the ear of, not least Melbourne Storm owner Gerry Ryan, who also owns Limerick Lane Thoroughbreds.

“Gerry has had so much success and knows so much about the industry, so it’s great to be involved,“ he said.

Slater was born in North Queensland and was playing rugby league at the tender age of four. He grew up on a farm, surrounded by animals and horses.

After finishing Year 12, Slater went to work for Gai Waterhouse, a role

which he says taught him a lot.

“Waking up at 3am every day to go to work and then return in the afternoon was tough, but it taught me a strong work ethic and also great discipline. I was only 16 at the time!“ His memories of Gai Waterhouse are fond.

“Gai was very disciplined. She ran her stables exactly the way she wanted them to be run. She knew everyone’s name and she was very polite, but she also expected a lot from her employ-

ees, so you needed to be committed.“ “I was always too big to realistically be a jockey,“ explained Slater.

“I’m very lucky, my two passions are rugby and horse racing and I’m very lucky to be able to work in both. Had I been about 30kg lighter at 16, then maybe I could have become a jockey,“ he laughed.

The 33-year-old has his sights firmly set on making a return in 2017, but following his professional rugby league career he believes he’ll be juggling a few different roles.

“I think I’ll be doing a bit of both (rugby and breeding). I want to stay in-

volved in the game, both in a coaching capacity and in the media too, but my broodmare business will take some of my attention too.“ Slater is looking forward to attending Pakenham Cup Day. “Country Racing is always so much fun, and the impressive Pakenham racecourse creates a great atmosphere.“ To keep up to date with at that is happening on Pakenham Cup Day, check out www.pakenhamracing.com. au and use #SFSPakenhamCup to join in the conversation on Twitter and Instagram.

On the road to resolution

By Aneeka Simonis EVERY day police respond to an average of four serious family violence incidents in Cardinia shire.

Disturbingly, just under half of these abuses are witnessed by or involve children.

It’s an indictment that many people are working hard to quash with children and their futures at the forefront of the push to end violence against women and children in the region.

A large number of campaigners turned out to the annual White Ribbon Day walk through Pakenham on Friday 25 November.

Hundreds of people holding antiviolence signs marched through the streets calling for the end of violence in homes across Cardinia shire.

The area has the second highest rate of reported family violence incidents in the southern metropolitan region, with an average of four serious incidents occurring per day.

Most victims are women.

This year’s walk was led by the Together We Can campaign, backed with the support of welfare agencies Connections, Anglicare, CatholicCare and Windermere.

In victims’ time of most need these agencies are there waiting to help - in addition to police who were dotted among the crowd at the White Ribbon Day event.

Pakenham police Senior Sergeant Graeme Stanley was impressed with the turn-out and encouraged more men to make violence against women in the community their business.

It was a particularly sentimental day for many people with the event creator Kerrie Thorpe from Connections, marking it as her last march.

Ms Thorpe’s contribution to family violence awareness in the community has helped influence significant change.

She started the first White Ribbon Walk in Pakenham six years ago with just six mums and their children. Hundreds now turn out to the event yearon-year.

Ms Thorpe can also be credited initiating the Cardinia Family Violence Network.

Those who took part in the campaign wrote anti-violence messages on tops and wore them throughout the day as part of The Clothesline Project.

People were also seen weaving stars to make up the 10,000 star contribution that Cardinia shire expects to provide to the 2018 Commonwealth Games at the Gold Coast.

If you or someone you know is impacted by sexual assault, family or domestic violence, call 1800 RESPECT on 1800 737 732 or visit www.1800RESPECT.org.au. In an emergency, call triple zero.

They did it all for Mel

By Victoria Stone-Meadows WHEN these few blokes get together to do something nice for a friend; they really get something special happening.

The Better Life for Mel fund-raiser dominated the Cranbourne Racecourse on Sunday 27 November, all to help Mel Popple from Tooradin who was tragically diagnosed with cancer for the third time.

The woman of the hour said she couldn’t believe the support from all her friends, family and the wider community.

“It has been an emotional roller-coaster of a day but it has been very hard to wipe the smile from my face,” she said.

“I have been moved to tears but they have been tears of happiness and I cannot thank everyone enough for bringing out their pride and joy just to support me.”

Mel said without the support from the people around her, she wouldn’t be as strong as she was today.

“I want to give a huge thanks to everyone,” she said.

“Everyone’s kind wishes and positivity is what helps me to keep fighting on and it’s amazing how uplifting it is.”

Event organiser Stuart Smith said the event went very smoothly and everyone was “over the moon” with the results.

Neil Fox rode from Pioneer Bay on his Lord of the Rings themed Harley Davidson for the Better Life for Mel Fund-raiser. 162582

The auctions both open and silent were a great success in helping to raise money for the Popple family, with all goods donated from local people and businesses. 162582

John Foy at his home's habitat-rich pond. 162598 The council has powers to withdraw it.”

Four supportive submissions and three opposing submissions were lodged after the council’s advertised public acquisition overlay was exhibited in July and August.

Ms Kane believes more neighbours would have objected had they had more details about the council’s plans. She said residents believed the council had only wanted to build a section of a 2.5-kilometre trail link in the site’s far northern corner.

The link is between Frog Hollow Reserve and Lysterfield Park, following the meanderings of Eumemmerring Creek.

In September, Casey Council requested a state planning panel to consider Amendment C223 for the overlay.

The council report states the development would help address a shortfall of at least three soccer pitches in

Casey statutory planning manager Duncan Turner said publicly exhibited information had included reference to "the future expansion of district leisure and sporting facilities", as well as the shared user path link.

The owners of the property, owners and occupiers of surrounding land were notified of the amendment's exhibition in writing, Mr Turner said.

JOHN Foy isn’t going to stand by and watch Casey Council dispossess and bulldoze his 34-acre patch of paradise in Narre Warren North.

The 78-year-old has spent 35 years transforming paddocks and a small billabong into a home with a luscious habitat garden with hundreds of plantings and a nesting pond for varieties of waterbirds.

“It feels like 300 kilometres from Melbourne,” he says as he surveys his tranquil plot.

On 1 December, Mr Foy and neighbour Marlene Kane will address a Planning Panels Victoria hearing to object to Casey compulsorily acquiring his land at 191-195 Belgrave-Hallam Road.

He sees it as a ‘David and Goliath’ battle against the Planning Minister who gave permission for the acquisition overlay’s exhibition - and Casey Council.

Mr Foy was disgusted when he saw the council’s illustrated plans for his land for the first time last week.

His house would make way for a road leading to sports fields, and fill in most of the duck lake.

The northern sheep pastures would be home to up to three soccer pitches, car parking and a pavilion as part of an extension of next door’s Narre Warren North Recreation Reserve.

Casey moved to publicly acquire Mr Foy’s property after lengthy negotiations broke down.

One of the sticking points for Mr Foy was he couldn’t get a guarantee from Casey to not disturb an embankment burial site for six family dogs.

“I was going to put in a covenant but I was told I was wasting my time.

A COUPLE from Narre Warren have achieved a diamond milestone in their marriage that started out with a glimpse across a lawn.

Bert Battin was working on a temporary basis at a factory in Clayton in the mid-1950s when he first caught sight of his future wife. “I was on holidays for a fortnight and I wanted some money to buy a car so my sister got me a temporary job at the Repco Forge in Clayton for two weeks,� Mr Battin said. “I was having my lunch one day when a saw a redhead beauty running across the lawn and I thought ‘Wow, look at that, who is that?’�

Mr Battin first saw a young flame-headed Iso-

bel on a Monday but didn’t cross paths with her again until the following pay day.

Mr Battin again saw Isobel running across the lawn while he was lining up to receive his pay and learned her name in an unusual way. “We were lined up to get paid and I saw her again running across but this time I could hear the migrants yelling out to ‘Isabella’,� Mr Battin said. “I turned to the young bloke next to me and asked him ‘Who’s that girl? And he told me she had just come out to Australia from Scotland.�

Mr Battin was so taken with the young Scottish lass he hadn’t even met that he knew from the exact moment he wanted to be with her. “I told the young bloke in line ‘I’m going to marry her’ and he turned and said ‘get out of here you little turd,

you don’t even work here.’�

This exchange took place in October and the two didn’t meet face to face until December the same year when Isobel popped over to visit Bert’s sister. “I opened door and saw the red hair,� Mr Battin said. “About a month later I ran into her again and we went out and that was it since then.�

A year later, on 29 September 1956, the two lovebirds were married at the Presbyterian Church in Springvale.

Since then the couple have shared a full life together including raising three kids in Shane, Christine, and Stuart, seven grandchildren and six great grandchildren.

The couple have said they had led a wonderful life together and wouldn’t change any of it.

Front seat safety AS YOUNG car buyers scour the state for their first set of wheels, it is timely to remind them to put safety at the top of their shopping lists.

Many first car buyers and their parents would be surprised to find dozens of used car models with potentially life-saving features like side curtain airbags and electronic stability control, are available for less than $3000.

Gone are the days when the only cars firsttime buyers could afford were old clunkers with little in the way of safety features.

Victorians are 30 times more likely to crash in their first six months of solo driving, so it makes sense that young drivers do their research before buying a car.

The Transport Accident Commission’s How Safe is Your First Car website is a great place to start, allowing users to find four and five star ANCAP safety rated vehicles within their price range.

While colours, sound systems and fuel economy may seem important to some, these features should all take a back seat to ensuring we all get home safe.

Getting everyone in safer cars will help us in our Towards Zero vision for a future where no person dies or is seriously hurt on our roads.

For more information on safe affordable cars head to www.howsafeisyourfirstcar.com. au.

Chase ends in county court

By Cam Lucadou-Wells FOUR people accused over the alleged throwing of a Molotov cocktail at police in Cranbourne North are facing a new charge that puts them in front of the Victorian County Court.

Matthew Butler, 29; John Vave, 29; Angie Christdou, 26; and Kylie Blythman, 20, appeared briefly in separate video-link hearings at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 29 November.

The co-accused now face an additional serious indictable charge of attempting to pervert the course of justice by attempting to destroy a stolen Audi Q3

“by way of arson” on 11 November, the court heard.

According to the charge, police were in the process of seizing the vehicle as evidence.

The charge laid on 28 November took the hearing out of Dandenong Magistrates’ Court into the County Court jurisdiction, the court heard.

On 11 November, the four co-accused were allegedly involved in a high-speed police pursuit in Melbourne’s southeast after the unignited Molotov cocktail was hurled.

They were arrested when the vehicle allegedly hit a garden bed in Hampton Park.

Butler and Christdou were charged with recklessly endangering life by driving a vehicle at high speeds and changing drivers while driving in Hallam on the same day.

Other charges include recklessly endangering life and attempted arson by throwing a Molotov cocktail - a 750ml vodka bottle of petrol - at a police officer next to a police vehicle.

The four were also charged with receiving two stolen number plates and stealing a $40,000 Nissan Navara.

All were remanded for a filing hearing at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 5 December.

In the education grove

By Victoria Stone-Meadows A NEW early learning centre under construction will cater for young children in Clyde North.

The new centre in Heather Grove will be attached to the new Heather Grove Primary School and give children an opportunity for integrated learning.

The centre and primary school have been made possible through a partnership with the YMCA and the Victorian State Government.

In having the early learning

centre and the primary school as a single educational unit, education providers can ensure a student’s transition from kinder to school is seamless.

YMCA Victorian CEO Peter Burns said the organisation prioritised the wellbeing of students while offering the best educational outcomes and facilities possible.

“It is our number one priority to always create a safe environment that exceeds expectations, so parents can rest assured their child is getting the best possible

start,” he said.

“Our educational programs are based on international best practice and take a holistic approach to learning.

“Busy parents can feel comfortable knowing that their children are getting the opportunity to play outside every day and that we invest in high quality healthy food for the children in our programs.”

The new primary school and early learning centre at Heather Grove are scheduled to open in the 2017 school year.

A TALENTED music student from Nossal High School in Berwick has won second prize in a national song writing contest and will have her song released on a compilation CD. Jade Roman, 15, has been taking music composition classes at school but has grown up in a music household that nurtured her love of song.

“I really like music and my family is quite musical,” she said.

“Both my parents sing and my mum is a pianist, guitarist and violinist and I have been playing piano since a young age.”

Jade, who is in Year 9, has written some music before but never written a song with accompanying lyrics.

“I have made compositions but never with words and since I started at Nossal this year, the lessons have given me an opportunity to formalize my performance and improve.”

Jade found out about the Change the World with Your Song competition and wrote her song Bulletproof just two days before the competition ended.

The competition offers entrants a choice of four categories to write their songs in the theme of and Ms Jade chose to write about hard done by war veterans under the social justice theme.

“I looked at the themes on offer and saw social justice and it really appealed to me,” she said.

“At first I had no idea what I was going to do but recent issues like homelessness among war veterans once they come back and are left with nothing was an interesting topic to talk about.”

It was only though a stroke of luck that Jade could upload her song in time to enter the competition.

“I had two days to upload it and I had written and finalized and record it,” she said.

“I ignored my other homework because I had to put it in that next day and even though I thought it could be better I just submitted it.

Jade Roman has won second place in a national songwriting contest for her song Bulletproof. 162432 Picture: VICTORIA STONE-MEADOWS “When I went to upload, it was taking hours and I was stressing out but I got notified that the website had crashed and date had been moved two days forward so I got a chance to do harmonies as well.”

One of the prizes for coming second in the Secondary School category of the song contest on 4 October means Jade will have her song professionally recorded by Phoenix Sound Studios of Hurstbridge.

Her song will then appear as part of a collaborative CD with other well-known Australian artists such as Kutcha Edwards, winner of the 2016 Melbourne Prize, and Nicky Bomba, winner of the Best World Music Aria Award in 2016.

Layla’s little miracle

By Victoria Stone-Meadows A COUPLE from Devon Meadows are celebrating the newfound life in their granddaughter after she received a miracle liver transplant.

Terry and Elain Saxon are urging everyone to consider organ donation after their granddaughter finally underwent a life-saving liver transplant.

Baby Layla was diagnosed with biliary atresia at just seven weeks old and was given six months to live if she did not receive a new liver.

The awful disease that afflicted Layla is rare and only occurs in infants, causing the liver to malfunction and bile to damage the vital organ.

At six months old, Layla has spent most of her life living at the Royal Children’s Hospital waiting on donor lists for an infant-sized liver.

“Layla would not have survived unless she had that transplant and unfortunately she needed a child-sized donation,” grandfather Terry said.

“We are over the moon our little girl has received this donation but I would encourage people to look at the opportunities of registering themselves as a donor so they can see they will help others.”

Grandmother Elain Saxon also said organ donation had the power to save many people’s lives, although it took a hard truth to realise it.

“It is something that has been bought to our attention, unlike most people who have never been in this situation before,” she said.

“We weren’t fully aware of the impact of the situation and I think you can say that it really has brought it home when we speak to people about the numbers and stats.”

According to the organisation Donate Life, around 1500 people are on Australian organ transplant waiting lists at any time and one person can improve the life of 10 or more people.

“When you see those sorts of stats and the impact it creates, going into the Royal Children’s is heart-breaking, it’s really something quite thought-provoking,” Mrs Saxon said.

It is through this experience with their granddaughter that Terry and Elain Saxon are asking everyone to consider organ donation for themselves.

Licences missing AN ALLEGED disqualified driver - and his ‘ride home’ - are both facing charges after a police intercept in Cranbourne North.

The first driver, a 22-year-old Narre Warren South man, was stopped in a silver Ford Focus by police on Berwick-Cranbourne Road about 1.40am on Tuesday. After being discovered as a disqualified driver, the man called a 26-year-old Narre Warren South woman to pick him up and take him home.

A check revealed the woman’s licence was allegedly suspended, police said.

The pair were then driven home by a 63-year-old Narre Warren South man.

The Focus was impounded, costing the owner $1060.

Police said the man and woman were expected to be charged with driving while disqualified and suspended respectively.

Baby Layla before and after her lifesaving liver transplant.

“If you are thinking about it, discuss it with the family, discuss it and then be aware that one person can improve the life of 12 people,” Elain said.

“It’s just a wonderful gift and it doesn’t take away or make a big difference - a lot of people

Picture: CONTRIBUTED

aren’t aware of it, they think it’s a lot more gruesome than it is.”

“My understanding is we are brought into the world to help each other and to choose not to is not what we normally do,” Terry said.

TWO Honda trail bikes were stolen from a property in Cranbourne after thieves broke into the garage of a house on Central Parkway.

Between 6.30am and 3.30pm on Friday 18 November, the two bikes, which were chained together, are believed to have been dragged from the property.

Both trail bikes were red and white Honda CRS dirt bikes, one was a 250cc bike with registration 1699E and the other was a smaller unregistered 110cc.

Police have released images of a white Ford Territory with a trailer that were caught on CCTV making a getaway from the scene of the crime.

Anyone with any information relating to this incident is asked to contact Detective Senior Constable McAllister at Casey Crime Investigation Unit on 9705 3114 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

BERWICK

FROM PAGE 1

OCCUPYING an esteemed 3.4 acre position in Berwick’s most prestigious lifestyle estate, 8 Mallaig Rise comes to the market.

Freshly built and truly in a class of its own, properties of this calibre are extremely difficult to find and virtually impossible to forget.

Crafted to fastidious perfection, this residence spreads across some 70 squares and offers impressive proportions coupled with sophistication.

Custom gates that evoke Tuscany lead visitors through a maple-lined driveway which is elegant by day and breathtaking by night.

The internal floorplan is thoughtfully designed.

It comprises three wings within the main house which include five sizeable bedrooms, each with its own full bathroom and craftsman-built cabinetry closets.

The master suite is bathed in sunlight

and boasts a superb walk-in closet as well as a luxury en suite bathroom.

Soaring ceilings and aged oak flooring ensure this exceptional home will always remain timeless.

The kitchen is simply the epitome of class and its over-sized and sensational bench top is crafted from American walnut and is a feature by itself.

It comes complete with a host of exceptional appliances from WOLF and Miele, including an over-sized stove and double ovens, a built-in refrigerator and freezer, a steam oven, an under-bench warming drawer and two dishwashers.

Complementing the kitchen is a full butler’s pantry and wine room.

The new owners will be able to enjoy movies in the theatre room, have a hit of tennis on the floodlit court or enjoy summer days in the sprawling solarheated, self-cleaning and glass tiled Aloha built pool.

Two further outbuildings are just as impressive as the main house.

A fully separated executive studio, with exquisitely crafted cabinetry, is ideal for maintaining a library and features showroom windows to the garage and a wet area for business entertaining.

The pool house is the perfect spot to enjoy the heart-stirring views.

In the winter, a stone-mantled gas log fireplace will keep the ambiance and, in the summer, it’s the ultimate place to sit back, relax and entertain family and friends. A full bathroom, sauna and entertainment room finish off this sensational area.

The extras list for this home, which are too numerous to enumerate here in full, include the following features: eight separate Daikin heating/cooling zoned systems, smart-wired lights and sound which is accessible remotely, a network of routers to maintain a stable internet connection throughout, an under-house equipment storage area, double-glazed windows and extensive insulation, and a full American oak stairwell.

Numerous more unique features will all be revealed upon an inspection.

Tuscan-inspired exteriors showcase archways and cobbled stone driveways are all finished off by soft mood lighting.

This tribute to premium styling, extreme quality finishes and graceful aesthetics ensure that buyers will put this sun-drenched villa on their must-inspect list.

There seems to be a growing number of web based businesses claiming to be independent advisory services who will put you in touch with the best real estate agents in your local area, at no cost. Unfortunately, this is not the case.

These businesses are simply collecting your personal information and selling it on to any local agents prepared to sign an agreement with them to do business. The price charged to the agents who are receiving these leads can take the form of a percentage of the commission being paid back to the lead generating company. In some cases, this is as much at 40% to 50% of the commission for simply collecting a name and address off a website.

The bad news for the end consumer is, most of the best agents will not do business with these companies and if they do, they will charge you a much higher fee in order to re-coup what they now have to give away. This means you would have got a better deal by going direct to the agent.

PLENTY OF PASTURE water/troughs all paddocks, 40 tonne pellet silo in good condition; cattle handling facilities, large hardstand yard, easy truck access, landscaped surrounds; a 26-year-old home, four bedrooms, formal lounge, dining on concrete slab in good sound condition.

This reliable farm, can’t stop the grass growing, it presents in first class condition, the owners are retiring and are offering immediate possession with vendor terms a consideration.

These lead generating companies do not meet the agents they are referring you to and have no knowledge of the local market or the quality of the agents they are recommending. They are asking you to trust them to find you the best agent, however the reality is they are just looking to make money out of the transaction, often without contributing anything except passing on your details. This should be of concern when entering your personal details. Where else is this data going?

It is advisable that anyone looking to sell or rent out a house, does do their own homework on the local agents. Look at their success rate, quality of service, reputation and who you can trust. Cheapest isn’t the best when it comes to selling the biggest asset you own.

YANNATHAN country is well recognized as having some of the best grazing in Gippsland, if not Australia and this is a fine example of the best of it.

There are 217 acres of a gently undulating blend of typical clay loam soils to river silts and well laid out in about 22 paddocks, all with good fencing, gates that open and close, central laneway provides a perfect walk in opportunity with nothing to improve.

The entire property functions well with a clean, well maintained farmyard and sheds. Originally a successful dairy farm with the “eight-a-side” shed and plant in top condition, it could easily be returned to production.

There is a large four-bedroom brickveneer home with landscaped surrounds.

Main features include excellent pastures, undulating, well fenced, central lane, shelter belts throughout; two hay sheds (500 rounds), 100’x30’ machinery, old milking shed (re-clad); brick milking shed, dairy with 500-gallon and 350-gallon vats, complete plant, grain crusher and store; S and D bore (e.c.), reticulated

THINKING OF SELLING? DON’T GET TRUMPED IF you’re thinking of selling but can’t decide whether to list with an agent this year or early in the new year, First National Real Estate Neilson Partners principal Ross Neilson says there are some unusual factors to consider as 2016 draws to a close.

“In my experience, this is the time of year when people who are considering selling start worrying that it’s too close to Christmas to list their property for sale,” Mr Neilson said.

“And, of course, they’re right to be concerned about the slow-down in the market that traditionally takes place over the Christmas and new year period.

“However, last year we were busy handling buyer inquiry right through the holiday period and, with stock levels far below normal levels nationally, we expect to be even busier this year.”

Typically, home sellers get the best response to their property when there are few other properties for sale to compete with.

Buyers are quick to make offers and keen to negotiate acceptable prices because they’re keen to secure a new home before listings dry up over the holidays.

Homeowners thinking of selling should definitely be talking to agents now because preparing a home for sale, completing photography, and obtaining the necessary legal documents for an agent to start

work all takes time.

“I’m anticipating increased stock levels in January because it’s currently a seller’s market and vendors have been holding back throughout 2016.

“The real estate market is cyclical and we generally see bounces in stock levels after periods of shortages,” Mr Neilson said.

“Another factor that’s hard to predict but likely to influence market conditions in 2017 is the ‘Trump Factor’.

“We’ve already seen America’s largest non-bank lender start to lift fixed rate mortgages in anticipation of the US turning on the debt tap to fund infrastructure builds.

“This is likely to drive interest rates up and Australia will not be immune.”

Mr Neilson said that confidence is everything in the real estate marketplace and uncertainty about USA policy under President-elect Donald Trump could influence overall market conditions in 2017.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Business digs in for jobs

By Casey Neill A Dandenong business breakfast with a twist featured a “call to arms” to help Doveton’s unemployed.

The Rotary Clubs of Dandenong, Dandenong South East, Casey, Endeavour Hills, Berwick and Narre Warren joined forces to host the event at Beletti Restaurant Cafe Bar on Wednesday 16 November.

Dandenong MP Gabrielle Williams was among the morning’s guest speakers and spoke passionately about breaking the entrenched disadvantage and unemployment in Doveton.

She said the suburb’s downward spiral followed the exit of major employers General Motors, International Harvester and Heinz which she said served as a lesson given the pending automotive industry exodus.

Ms Williams said the south-east was home to more than half the auto supply chain jobs, with 81 of the 137 tier one and tier two suppliers in Victoria located in the region.

“Not one single thing can replace auto,” she said.

Guest speaker James Sturgess, from law firm Macpherson Kelley.

She spoke about State Government measures to assist, including funding projects in industries that could create jobs for auto workers.

Ms Williams said the State Government also had a significant role to play in helping Doveton to spring back

from 22 per cent unemployment.

“Industry is also a huge piece of the puzzle,” she said.

Fellow guest speaker James Sturgess from law firm Macpherson Kelley said finding the people in Doveton who wanted jobs was hard and there was a

disconnect between employment networks.

He’s fielding job offers from employers and contacting Doveton College for candidates.

“M and K have employed three people from Doveton, through Doveton College,” he said.

Mr Sturgess said the school was engaging with parents as well as students to make a change.

He said Macpherson Kelley was always open to opportunities to put back into the community.

“We want to be part of the community,” he said.

“We are privileged to be in business in this region.”

And it’s been a fixture of the community since 4 October 1905.

“There’s not a lot of businesses in Australia that have a heritage of more than 100 years,” he said.

Mr Sturgess has been with the firm for 30 years next month and said it had changed dramatically in the past 15 years in particular.

It’s now a commercial law firm

with a focus on substantial businesses, and has grown from a $15 million turnover and 90 staff 12 years ago to $60 million and close to 300 people today.

“It’s a really successful business that has grown up in this community,” he said.

Mr Sturgess spoke about manufacturing as “a critical part of this region”.

He said the sector had grown by a few hundred jobs in the region in the past 10 years against a downward trend more widely.

Rotary Club of Dandenong South East’s Phil Thurgood said every dollar donated to Rotary “gets to the cause” unlike many charities.

He spoke about the work the club had been doing, including supporting Disaster Aid Australia and Romac, and funding pizza nights and swags for Cornerstone Contact Centre.

Greater Dandenong Mayor Jim Memeti said more than 50 per cent of council rates came from businesses, and that the council and Rotary shared a common goal to see the municipality grow and prosper.

Hard work pays off for Max

By Russell Bennett UPPER Beaconsfield young gun Max Marinic will have to wait a few days to get his hands on his best Christmas present this year.

It’s one that he’s worked tirelessly towards, and the one that will give him the greatest sense of accomplishment.

It’s his Victorian state cricket cap, and Max will receive it on day three of the Boxing Day Test at the MCG. If his name sounds familiar, it’s because he’s the 12-year-old son of Beaconsfield Cricket Club icon and local legend Glenn Marinic.

But Max is his own player, set on his own path, and his old man says he’s leaps and bounds ahead of where he was at the same age.

Though he’s only recently turned 12, Max has an incredible mature head on his young shoulders.

The Haileybury college student has made quite the name for himself on turf wickets in the school system, at clubland with the Beaconsfield juniors, at the Sharks, and now at state level.

The batsman made it through to School Sports Victoria 12-years-and-under boys side that will head to Canberra for the nationals in January next year.

But to get that far, he had to survive a series of list culls.

Around 500 youngsters tried out in the first place, and the last stage of the selection process

Max Marinic’s best Christmas present of all will come a few days after 25 December – at Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT the MCG. 162571 was in the nets of the hallowed MCG. “Everyone in the side is from a different location, which is good because it bonds everyone together,” Max said with a beaming smile.

He’s continually working on his calling and running between the wickets, and that will remain

a focus as he gels with an entirely new set of team mates.

But Max is no stranger to hard work. In actual fact, the two go hand-in-hand.

He’s been playing club cricket for four years, but has been honing his craft with his dad since

he was three.

Max’s choice of favourite cricketers gives even more insight into his temperament and shows that trademark Marinic grit hasn’t fallen far from the tree.

“I like Ricky Ponting - I like his intent - and also Steve Waugh as well, just because he’s such a tough cricketer,” he said.

Max is most proud of his ability to concentrate at the wicket for long periods, not just the array of shots in his arsenal.

He’s constantly working on his technique - for hours on end, often until late into the night - and it’s his pull-shot that he’s really trying to refine.

“A lot of kids are gifted, but he’s worked really hard at it - he’s put in a lot of hours in the nets and on game days,” Glenn said of Max. “When you set a goal for yourself and it takes hard work and time but you achieve it, that’s just so satisfying.

“He said to us before Christmas last year that he’d really like to get into the state side. He set his goal and he achieved it. We’re just so proud of him.”

And as for Glenn seeing his own likeness in Max’s game?

“He’s much more technically correct than I was but the main similarity is just that desire - the want to be competitive, and score runs,” he said.

“His actual batting - he’s well and truly ahead of where I was.”

Inaugural season a great success

Lewis Newman, Aaron Miles, Simo Pajdic, Tom Greer, Tristan Blacka and Cam Andre were the inaugural ‘general managers’ of the South East Super League. 158969 Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT relationship will only continue to strengthen into the future.

The Sharks - including the likes of Lee Belton, Dylan Larkin and Cody Fredrickson - will take on Tyrone Tonkin, Calvin Enge, Aaron Miles, Dylan Jenkinson, Tyler Hogg and their Mustangs team mates this weekend.

“It’s been a really good 10 weeks - the guys have done really well,” Blacka said.

“We’ve had quite a few people come down to watch.

“At the start it was very much like a Big V game - manto-man defense from start to

finish - and then it kind of plateaued out a little bit as the guys got a bit flat but as they realised it was only a short 10-week competition those positions on the ladder started to become very close and it really picked up.”

Blacka said the few teething issues the league experienced in season one will be ironed out for season two, and the plan is now to develop and grow the SESL. For more information visit www.seslbasketball.com or search for ‘South East Super League’ on Facebook.

AS the inaugural season of the South East Super League draws to a thrilling crescendo this weekend, the future of the competition looks bright for seasons to come.

The concept of the basketball league was the brainchild of Simo Pajdic and Tristan Blacka from the Pakenham Warriors and it involved a draft, player signings and trades to fill out the rosters of the six inaugural teams - the Pakenham Pirates, Beaconsfield Mustangs, Berwick Sharks, Cardinia Crocs, Lakeside Vikings and Officer Hornets.

Pajdic and Blacka served as general managers of the Hornets and Vikings respectively in season one, while the Sharks and Mustangs will fight it out for the title this Sunday from 2pm at the Officer Hub. The competition was set up, in part, to fill the gap in the Big V representative off-season and a number of players on the six rosters either play for the Warriors’ men’s side or the Youth Men’s, which Pajdic coaches.

But a wide range of other Big V clubs are also represented, including Western Port, Mornington, Dandenong, Sherbrooke, Keysborough and Melbourne.

The SESL - backed by invaluable support from major sponsor Ash Mason from Stockdale and Leggo in Pakenham - is affiliated with the Pakenham and District Basketball Association (PDBA) and that

Warriors to face off with Goannas

By Russell Bennett THE Pakenham Warriors will break new ground this Saturday as their Big V Youth Men’s side takes on the might of the Australian Goannas the national men’s basketball team for the deaf.

In what is a real coup for basketball in the south-east, Simo Pajdic’s Warriors side will take on the Goannas at Cardinia Life in a bid to raise some much-needed funds for the fully self-funded national side.

This Saturday’s game marks the Goannas’ first official lead-up game to the 2017 Deaflympics in Samsun, Turkey in January.

Entry to the game, which tips off at 5pm, is just $5 for adults, $2 for youngsters between five and 14, and free for anyone under the age of five.

All proceeds will go to the Goannas, while Aligned Leisure has also donated the Cardinia Life facility for the clash.

The young Warriors are eagerly anticipating the contest, which will pit them for the first time against a na-

tional-quality opponent.

The Goannas are one of the most improved deaf basketball teams anywhere in the world and the side is made up of arguably the best deaf athletes throughout Australia.

Given that players are from all corners of the country, they come together once a month at their training base in Melbourne for a weekend before resuming their normal club duties in their home states.

Because there is no funding available for the team, players split the expenses for training camps - things such as airfares, food and accommodation - to keep the costs down as much as possible.

Pajdic said his side couldn’t wait for this Saturday’s challenge, which will give one of the first indicators of just where the team is at during its pre-season.

Many of last season’s Youth Men’s players have returned for the new campaign in a bid to go bigger and better.

The Warriors are hoping for a bumper crowd this Saturday at Cardinia Life.

Lions jumping to the top of ladder

By Nick Creely WEST GIPPSLAND CRICKET ASSOCIATION ROUND 6 - REVIEW (Day 2) PAKENHAM are continuing their impressive season in the Premier division, dismantling bottom-placed Emerald in an outright victory, and in the process, have captured top spot on the ladder.

The Lions, after just falling over the line in their pursuit of the Bombers first-innings total of 148, took a 39-run lead, before sending them back in to bat.

Skipper Dom Paynter (72) was once again the dominant batsman for the Lions, while Bombers bowler Geordie Scott (5/29) did the bulk of the damage.

But in their second dig, the Bombers meekly lost 9/38, after at one stage being 0/45.

Tom Jones (5/16) was devastating, shredding the middle-order en route to his best ever figures.

Dom Paynter (3/36) was also amongst the wickets.

This left the Lions with just 47 runs to chase down, with Dom Paynter (23no) ensuring they gain the double-points in just 6.3 overs.

Tooradin has annihilated Upper Beaconsfield, and were close to gaining outright points before a resistance by the Maroons batsman.

After rolling the Maroons for just 62 last week, the Seagulls resumed at 4/130, spanking a further 59 runs before declaring on 7/189, 127 runs in front.

Aaron Avery (48) top-scored for the Gulls, while Tom Hussey (44) and Cal O’Hare (35) were also amongst the runs.

The Maroons then dug deep, batting out the remaining 66 overs of the day, finishing on 6/138 after losing three quick wickets early in the innings.

Bathiya Perera (30), Julian Bayard (30) and Scott Pitcher (29) were all solid with the bat, while Gulls opening bowler Cal O’Hare (3/25) did all he could.

Pakenham-Upper Toomuc has stood no chance to a powerful Kooweerup unit, losing by a staggering 233 runs at Pakenham-Upper Reserve.

With an imposing 357 to win, the Yabbies were never really in the contest, bowled out for just 133 in 61 overs.

Opener Ben Clough (30) top-scored for the Yabbies, but it was all the Demons, as Skipper Mark Cooper (3/32) and Cody Miller (4/40) run amok.

And finally, Merinda Park has upset Cardinia, defending their solid total of 266 at Donnelly Reserve.

After a sparkling maiden century for Cobras opening bat Daniel McCalman the week prior, it seemed the momentum was with the home side, bowling out the Bulls for 212, with Neil Barfuss (100) once again reaching the triple figures.

Seamer Leigh Paterson (4/50) was again the pick of the bowlers, while Daniel Diwell (2/9) and Grant Pearson (2/70) were among the wickets.

Cranbourne Meadows just can’t seem to keep themselves out of the limelight, with yet another controversy in the District division, marring the round’s action.

The Rebels, who were thumped by Tooradin, refused to bat in their second innings, due to their claim that the sledging received by the Seagulls fielders was incessant.

The Seagulls crushed the Rebels, who could only muster up 63 in their chase of 188, with Kade Burns (3/15) and Tim Lenders (4/15) skittling them with no mercy.

It only took 39.3 overs for the Rebels to be dismissed, but the day was over.

Kooweerup were clinical in victory on Saturday. 162332

Mick Floyd celebrates a wicket in the Panthers' crushing victory. 162339

Kalgidhar are continuing their stunning rise, holding off a competitive Nar Nar Goon/Maryknoll batting side to claim a vital victory.

After Kalgidhar amassed a whopping 349 last week, off the back of a wonderful century by the classy Sunny Paul, the Marygoons gave it their all, as skipper Daniel Glen (72), Troy Schepisi (53) and Dean Henwood (47) put their best foot forward.

But the total was just too far of a mountain to climb, as Pankaj Goyal (3/27), Vishal Thind (4/38) and Gagan Singla (1/34) eventually took the ten wickets.

Clyde has been taught a cricketing lesson, dismantled by an impressive Devon Meadows bowling attack.

Chasing 248, the Cougars failed miserably with the bat, bowled out for just 78.

Matthew Hutchinson (5/37) was destructive, while Scott Clark (2/23) and Michael Floyd (2/13) were excellent supporting acts.

And finally, Carlisle Park has tasted outright victory, crushing a hapless Officer in a dominant display of cricket at Carlisle Park Reserve.

After the Bullants stunning batting collapse of 9/46 last week, the Vikings wasted little time in chasing down the total, but were eventually dismissed for 151 off the back of an impressive 51 by Henry Staughair.

David Collins (5/41) continues to take wickets at will, while Adam Reid (2/18) was also in good touch with the ball in hand.

The Bullants then simply had to grind out the last day, 40 overs to be exact, but were instead equally as disappointing, bowled out for just 85, as Jesse Fitzgerald (5/31) run amok.

The Vikings then had to run down 19 runs to claim the outright victory, which they did in 5.4 overs.

Meanwhile, in the Sub-District division, after Lang Lang’s ominous 325 last week, it was always going to be tricky for Aura Vale to chase.

And despite some fight in their second dig, the Lakers were outclassed, and were bowled out for just 92.

Joseph Dalgleish (4/37) continued his strong season, doing the bulk of his work in the middle overs, while Ricky Caddell (2/8) was also in fine touch.

The Swamp Tigers then sent the Lakers back in with outright on their minds, but the batting side dug in, finishing on 7/162.

Clyde has continued their dominance over the competition, putting Nyora to the sword.

After the Cougars whacked their way to 4/260 last week, the Maroons could only muster up 118, as Cougars bowlers Dean Williams (2/33) and Matthew Bayliss (2/12) took control.

Pakenham have fought to a 58-run loss, after Catani managed to fend them off in their clash at Catani Reserve.

The Cats posted 239 last week, and the Lions were on track, as Dene North (20) and Dwayne Noyahr (58) put on 71 for the first wicket.

But a middle-order collapse, led by trio Lachlan Gregson (2/37), Ben Ahern (2/10) and Trent Adams (2/3), ensured the Lions could only reach 181.

Cardinia have won a thriller, defeating Gembrook by just one wicket.

Chasing 227, the Bulls were well led by gun opener Bradley Remy (97), who got them to a cruisy position of 5/219, eight runs short of victory.

But the Bulls collapsed, losing four wickets in a short space of time, to be sitting on 9/225.

Somehow the Bulls survived, surpassing the Brookers despite immense pressure.

Brookers quick Kyle O’Reilly (6/47) was the star, lifting his side by taking an astonishing five wickets in his last spell.

The Bulls were eventually dismissed for 228.

Out of the ordinary luxury

By Ewan Kennedy INFINITI, the upmarket Japanese car maker operated by Nissan, is pushing hard at the moment with new models in several segments, particularly in the small hatchback and SUV arenas.

Now, the Infiniti Q70 is joining the sales push, with major changes for the 2017 season.

It has refreshed styling front and rear as well as in the cabin as well as improved NVH (noise, vibration and harshness) features that add to the upmarket feel.

The Infiniti Q70 S Premium grade we have just tested also has suspension changes which not only make it smoother and quieter but also add to the sporty feeling.

From the start the large Infiniti sedans have had sporty styling of the type favoured by British Jaguar saloons.

This latest model continues to be low slung and attractive, with large guards, particularly at the rear that give it the sort of look that it’s ready to leap at the road.

For 2017 the double-arch grille has a more three-dimensional look with what the designers call a ‘waved-mesh finish’, made to stand out even more by having chrome surround. The front bumper has been redone, with integrated foglights.

The bootlid has been flattened and

the rear bumper slimmed down to make the rear of the Q70 look wider and lower.

Our S Premium model had its rear bumper finished in high-gloss black paint.

Large 20-inch alloy wheels in a double-spoke design certainly add to the sporty look.

Inside, the big Infiniti continues to have a high-quality look with wood accents and leather trim. The front seats are heated and have 10-way power adjustment, including two-way lumbar support.

Infiniti Q70 is powered by a 3.7-litre V6 petrol engine producing 235 kW at 7000 rpm, and 360 Nm of torque, the latter not peaking until a very high 5200 rpm. However there’s solid torque from relatively low revs.

Power goes to the rear wheels through a seven-speed automatic transmission with manual overrides. Solid magnesium paddle shifters are a feature of the Q70 S Premium.

The Infiniti Drive Mode Selector provides four modes - Standard, Eco, Sport or Snow.

In Sport the Infiniti has measured the 0-100km/h time a 6.2 seconds so this big sports sedan is no slouch.

There’s also a Q70 hybrid model that’s even quicker than the pure petrol version we tested, running a 5.3 second time to 100 km/h.

Bold, sports styling is a major feature of the revised for 2017 Infiniti Q7.

MODEL RANGE Q70 GT 3.7-litre petrol four-door sedan: $68,900 (automatic) Q70 S Premium 3.7-litre petrol four-door sedan: $78,900 (automatic) Q70 Hybrid GT Premium 3.5-litre petrol/electric hybrid four-door sedan: $82,900

An 8.0-inch high-resolution touchscreen and Infiniti Controller give access to multiple functions, including satellite navigation.

Our Q70 S Premium had a Bose Premium Sound System with Bose Studio Surround sound system with digital 5.1-channel decoding and 16 speakers.

Two of the speakers are mounted in the shoulders of each front seat.

An Enhanced Intelligent Key system remembers last used audio, navigation and climate control settings for each key

The latest Infiniti Safety Shield system as fitted to the Q70 S Premium has Forward Emergency Braking, Lane Departure Warning (LDW) and Lane Departure Prevention (LDP).

Predictive Forward Collision Warning (PFCW) system and Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI) are fitted as part of the self-parking system.

The front seats are large and comfortable and the aforementioned multiple adjustments make for secure travel.

The rear seat is good for legroom and can carry three adults without too

much trouble. Two, with a child is a better way of doing it, though.

The Q70 S Premium has the Active Noise Control feature, which monitors cabin noise levels and generates ‘cancelling waves’ to make travel almost eerily quiet on smooth roads.

Despite the large tyres comfort was generally very good, though some rough surfaces did challenge the suspension due to the low profile tyres.

Road grip is high and the steering responds nicely to driver input, as well as giving good feedback.

Engine performance is fast and responsive thanks to the use of a large capacity V6 without a turbocharger.

The transmission is generally in the right gear at the right time and we seldom found any need to override it using the manual modes. We preferred the added urge of Sport mode and kept the auto there most of the time.

Fuel usage was relatively high by today’s standards, running at about seven to nine litres per 100 kilometres on country drives and motorways.

Around town this went up to the low teens if pushed hard, but spent most of the time in the 11 to 12 litre range.

Looking for something out of the ordinary in the luxury car field? Then the Infiniti Q70 certainly deserves a place on the shopping list. Its combination of quality build, quiet running and a sporty sedan looks and feel works
