Big league dream

By Kath Gannaway When Sarah D’Arcy pulled on her first football boots with the Healesville Auskick program, she thought that was it.

There was no way, nearly two decades ago that the now 25-year-old left-footer could have envisaged playing for Collingwood in the inaugural AFL Women’s League match.

The experience of playing on Friday night, 3 February, before a crowd of 24,500 people at Princes Park is still sinking in, Sarah told the Mail this week.

The game marked the beginning of the 28-match competition and it was set up by the AFL as a ground-breaker, building on the traditional rivalry of Collingwood and Carlton.

While the final siren saw Collingwood go down to Carlton by 35 points, undoubtedly a huge disappointment for the Magpies, Sarah said it was an unforgettable night.

“Looking out at the crowd was just crazy; we couldn’t even hear our teammates talking to us on the field,” she said.

“It didn’t feel like they were cheering for one team, it felt like they were cheering for all of us.

“Just cheering for women’s footy.”

Her road to the elite level of women’s football has been a mix of opportunity and relentless pursuit.

Sarah was 14 when she decided to give football a go for a second time, playing a couple of games with Healesville Under 14s before coming up against the cut-off age for girls.

She was playing for Healesville High School at state level when she was spotted and invited to play in the local women’s league.

“I had no idea that this would be a career; I just played for fun,” she said, still slightly breathless after the euphoric Friday night explosion of the AFL Women’s League.

“There was no youth girls (compe-

Sarah D’Arcy training with Collingwood. 164747 Picture contributed by Robert Keeley tition) then, so no pathway to make it into the senior level,” she said.

She went straight into the Yarra Valley Cougars as one of their youngest recruits, playing alongside Mount Evelyn’s Lauren Tesoriero.

Both women progressed to the AFL’s Eastern Devils before being drafted to by Collingwood.

As a Cougar and a Devil, Sarah showed the athleticism, skill and grit that prompted commentators on Friday night to brand her a ‘shining light’ of the Magpies’ line-up.

Asked about the trail-blazing role she and her peers were embarking on, she said it was an exciting time to be a girl playing football.

“Looking back, I would kill to be 12 again and have all these role models to look up to,” she said.

“When I think now of how big the youth girls’ league is, the level at which the girls are coming in and the level of coaching, their skills will just be amazing by the time they get to senior level.

“I played football for fun. Now

there is somewhere they can go and all that has happened in the past few years.”

It’s early days still for the women making that ground-breaking leap.

Like their male counterparts in the early days of Australian Rules, it’s part of a bigger life.

Sarah juggles university where she is studying to be a teacher with parttime work at Australian Traffic Control and an intense training and match schedule as an AFL footballer.

She said the future of women’s football was still very much an evolving process that she was happy to be part of.

Issues such as development programs, pathways, player payments, different rules and just where women’s football fits in with the traditional AFL game, are all part of that process.

“For me, I’ve never been paid to do something I love like this,” Sarah said.

“I’m just happy to be out there.”

Residents, emergency services members, car enthusiasts and bushfire survivors came together over the weekend to mark eight years since the Black Saturday bushfires, with a 500-car cruise through the valley.

The annual Black Saturday Remembrance Cruise was held on Saturday, 11 February, drawing about 500 cars for a drive from Yarra Glen, through Toolangi and Chum Creek to Healesville.

After arriving at the Healesville Railway Station, visitors listened to speeches from Healesville CFA’s Ken Glenn, Casey MP Tony Smith and Brother’s Keepers Motorcycle Club’s Greg Chapman.

Organiser, Stacey Kinsmore said this year’s event, which featured a new starting point at the Yarra Glen Racecourse, worked out well and would raise about $7000 for the CFA. “We had a really good feel to it this year - it went really smoothly,” she said.

She said the cooler temperature after a hot week helped to make the cruise more comfortable, and a police escort to the Healesville-Kinglake Road turn-off made for an easy drive.

“Normally, we’re one of the last to leave, or in the middle ... but we were actually able to be the lead car this year, which was lovely.”

During the ceremony in the afternoon, where visitors walk around the labyrinth and place flowers in the centre, the band, Arc de Trio, performed a version of I Am Australian with verses about the fires. Ms Kin-

Marc, Deb, Jaz and Jax of Hoddles Creek came in their ‘57 Chev Impala. 164797

All years and all sorts of iron on display. 164797 smore said she had received positive feedback from visitors, including from Black Saturday survivors, whose visit to the cruise was their first time taking part in a remembrance event, eight years on.

She said a couple who lost everything in the blazes also attended every year and got in touch.

“They leave feeling kind-of happy, in a certain way - like people actually do care and we haven’t forgotten about them,” she said.

“That was my aim this year, and I think that’s what the event’s gone back to.”

Ms Kinsmore said next year’s cruise would be going ahead, the same as this year’s, and that preparations were being made for the 2019 event to mark the 10th anniversary of the fires.

“Regardless of if it’s going to be the 10th or the 12th (anniversary), it’s always going to - hopefully - run,” she said.

ALDI is out of place

By Jodie Symonds A Healesville couple has raised concern over the design of the proposed ALDI shopping centre in Healesville and say a number of issues need to be resolved before construction begins.

The application is likely to be considered at a Yarra Ranges Council meeting in March or April.

Elaine and Stuart Truman said while they were not against a new supermarket in the town, there were a number of issues with the design.

The Trumans told the Mail building elevations, height, finishes, signage and car-parking are among the issues they believe need to be addressed before building commences.

Specifically, they claim that twothirds of the height of the building exceeds the overall limit of 7.5m set by the council, and said two corner towers

according to plans put forward would be nine metres and 12 metres from their floor levels.

They told the Mail they have been architectural planners for the past 30 years and worry community members without experience in architecture would not be able to understand the plans on the council website.

Mr Truman also said the building’s large signage does not adhere to Healesville’s streetscape.

“Do you see any other buildings in Healesville with signs that big?” he queried.

“There is a discrepancy between the plans and the elevations and these things need to be resolved, so there aren’t issues later.”

Yarra Ranges Council’s director of Social and Economic Development, Ali Wastie, said the application was currently under assessment and was likely

to be considered at a council meeting in March or April.

“The council report will include an assessment on built form, parking, trees and other concerns raised by the community,” Ms Wastie said.

She said council had received eight objections.

Ryrie Ward Cr Fiona McAllister said there was really strong support for a second supermarket around the town.

“Given its location and the heritage character of the town, it’s really important how it fits in,” she said.

Mr and Mrs Truman however say there has not been sufficient time allowed to show the public an artist’s impression of what the building will look like in comparison to the Healesville streetscape.

The Mail contacted ALDI and Yarra Ranges Council who advised that there is no artist’s impression.

“I think a lot of the townspeople have missed the fact that it is about to be signed, sealed and delivered,” Mrs Truman said.

She called on the council to instigate appropriate community consultation on the multi-million dollar project.

“Please provide adequate 3D visual information and a forum for proper consultation with the townspeople before councillors make their decision,” Mrs Truman urged.

Following the Mail’s dialogue with council, a spokesperson has advised that public consultation would be arranged in the coming weeks.

Cr McAllister encouraged the community members to attend.

Submissions can be made up until the matter goes before council.

The Mail last week published an article about George Rallis’s conviction for drug dealing in Healesville.

In our article we wrote the dealer was employed at the Healesville Gymnasium and trafficked drugs through his workplace until the time of his arrest in 2014, which is true.

The Mail would like to clarify that Rallis no longer works at the gym, which is under new management following a brief closure after Rallis’s arrest.

A 76-year-old Yarra Junction woman was killed in a car crash on Friday, 10 February in Badger Creek, with police investigating the incident.

Shortly before 9.30am on Friday morning, a passer-by discovered a car that had come off of Healesville-Kooweerup Road and rolled onto its roof, leaking fuel.

Police, ambulance, SES and CFA crews arrived immediately afterwards, though the driver of the car died at the scene. CFA crews worked to clear fuel and debris to make the area safe, while emergency services crews directed traffic away from the scene.

Healesville police Leading Senior Constable Tim Stewart told the Mail at the scene that police believed the crash may have been the result of a medical incident, because of a lack of skid-marks or any attempt to brake - though he said investigations were ongoing.

He said he believed the crash happened minutes before the car was discovered, due to the road being a busy thoroughfare in the morning.

Anyone who has any information, or who may have witnessed the crash, is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or www.crimestoppersvic. com.au.

Clarification

Where:

Healesville Primary School is seeking people with skills and time to pitch in, with a group of parents and community members to be established later this month.

School staff will meet with interested residents on Friday 17 and Wednesday 22 February to establish Parents and Community Helpers of Healesville Primary School (PACH of HPS) - a group dedicated to pooling skills to help the school.

Staff member Louise George said the group would be similar to a parents’ club, but would include people in the community who had skills to offer, such as gardening or an interest in reading to students.

“It’s skills specific - if you’ve got skills to help with literacy, come in and help with a classroom,” she said.

“If you’ve got skills that help with fund-raising then great, come on in.

“But it’s basically to ... sort of push it out into the community a little bit more than most parent groups.”

The Friday meeting will be held at the school staffroom from 9am, while the Wednesday meeting will be held from 7pm at the Healesville RSL. Principal Cameron Heath said PACH was about gathering people from inside and outside the school community to work together.

He said the group would help with organising events, such as last year’s 150th fete, but would not be primarily focused on fund-raising.

“It’s about making connections and community, and having friends within there,” he said.

“That (fund-raising) might be the byproduct, but the main reason is to create

Chip pet a happy pet Animal

aid Mark Menze Animal Aid CEO

We are well and truly into the New Year and before we know it, Easter will be upon us.

I have no doubt some of you will have acquired a new furry friend over the Christmas period.

Others may already have a much-loved dog, cat - or both - at home.

Either way, have you asked yourself the question, ‘are you a responsible pet owner?’

Is your pet microchipped and registered with council?

I can hear some of you saying ... here we go again, just another way of filling council coffers.

Take a moment to consider the following. Would you drive your car unregistered?

If you were found doing so, the penalty is significant.

It is a legal requirement to register your pet with council, yet we know for a fact many pets are not registered.

On a day-to-day basis, Animal Aid received hundreds of calls from heartbroken pet owners, whose pet has gone missing or managed to escape.

If your pet is lost, you can be assured it will find its way to Animal Aid, where

it will be cared for and loved by our staff and volunteers.

We work closely with council and the community to reunite pets quickly with their rightful owner.

This can be achieved in less than 48 hours, if an animal is microchipped and registered with council.

In fact: 91 per cent of impounded dogs are reunited with their owners; Around one in four cats are reunited.

Return rates on cats is lower than dogs, largely due to a lack of microchipping, council registration or other identification; When a lost pet is reunited with an owner through Animal Aid, it is released with registration, a microchip and full ownership details.

An average pet registration costs as little as $3 per month - $36 per year and it will give you the peace of mind that if your pet is lost, it will be much easier for both Animal Aid and council to reunite it with you, the rightful owner!

An unregistered pet found roaming the streets could cost an owner over $700.

It’s a no-brainer.

So I appeal to you, if your pet is not registered, please mark the date 10 April in your diary, as the annual deadline for pet registration.

Register early and you will get the benefit of an extra two months for the same annual registration fee.

And you won’t be penalised for not having previously registered your pet.

For further information on Animal Aid, www.animalaid.org.au or call (03) 9739 0300.

Blue Vein coupe works halted

By Kath Gannaway Timber harvesting was stopped last week in the controversial ‘Blue Vein’ logging coupe adjacent to the Ada Tall Trees Reserve out of Warburton.

Warburton Environment staged a demonstration outside the logging area on Thursday, 9 February in an attempt to halt logging in what they describe as ‘prime habitat of the critically endangered Leadbeater’s Possum”.

Warburton Environment president, Katrina Doughty, said there had been eight Leadbeater’s Possum detections recorded by citizen science group Wildlife of the Central Highlands (WOTCH) within one kilometre of the logging coupe, making it a major stronghold for the survival of the possum.

Ms Doughty said requests had been made to VicForests for their pre-logging surveys of the area, but that they had not received them.

“We need to know that they have done their surveys comprehensively,” she told the Mail.

Mr Doughty said logging also dam-

the guidelines and did not believe they were in breach of the relevant Act. A spokesperson for the State Environment Minister Lily D’Ambrosio, confirmed that timber harvesting had stopped in most of the Blue Vein Coupe while the Department of Environment, Land and Water Protection (DELWP) were doing further surveys.

He said DELWP had issued a direction to VicForests on 9 February to protect potential habitat for Leadbeater’s Possum, but that it did not preclude operations.

“It only identifies the values that need to be protected,” he said, adding that timber already felled could be removed.

The Blue Vein coupe is around 20 hectares of which the area of potential habitat under the direction covers 65 per cent of the coupe.

The results of the verification survey are expected at the end of this week.

“A decision will then be made about the continuation of timber harvesting in the areas being assessed,” he said.

Food appeal will help out farmers

By Jesse Graham Yarra Glen residents are being called on to donate food for farmers, with the local brigade collecting for the Need for Feed Appeal, supporting Gippsland farmers.

The Yarra Glen Fire Brigade will be collecting non-perishable food, toiletries, dry pet food and items such as school accessories for the

Wandin chainsaw sculptor Rob Bast has taken out his second consecutive Australian Chainsaw Carving Championship.

Bast competed against some of the best national and international chainsaw carvers at Mount Dandenong on Saturday 21 January to take the $3000 first prize with his incredible piece The Man from Snowy River as well as picking up the people’s choice award.

Bast was in his element with the theme for this year’s championships - Australiana. “The Man From Snowy River is something that is very iconically Australian,� Bast said of his inspiration for the sculpture. “I grew up with the movie and when I think of that I think of the high country and the bushmen,� he said.

Carved from one log, the sculpture depicts one of the most memorable scenes from the film “but the man from Snowy River let the pony have his head�, the heart-stopping, almost vertical ride down the mountainside.

The two paragraphs of A B ‘Banjo’ Patterson’s poem telling of that ride are written on the back of the sculpture.

Jeff Samudosky’s sculpture The Dance took second prize

Rob Bast with his prize-winning sculpture of The Man From Picture: GREG CARRICK. Snowy River. 164092 and Japan’s Kikaru Kodama, third prize with his piece called Elders With Family.

Rob Bast will be carving at the Seymour Alternative Farming Expo on 17-19 February.

Volunteer thanks

By Jesse Graham The work of volunteers to help the community recover from the 9 October storms was recognised with a barbecue event at Lillydale Lake.

On Saturday 11 February, about 50 volunteers, community group members and Yarra Ranges Council staff were treated to a barbecue lunch and a visit from Emergency Services Commissioner Craig Lapsley to thank them for their work.

Council’s executive officer of emergency management and community safety and organiser of the event Corinne Bowen said the day was a “nice surprise” for people who helped in the effort to clean up after last year’s storm.

The storm saw 120km/h winds hit the Yarra Ranges on Sunday 9 October, downing power lines and trees, with tourist sites and building sites damaged and a Millgrove woman killed as a result of a falling tree.

“We had volunteers that volunteered to actual work for the clean-up campaign and some that were part of Volunteers Victoria, some local community leaders as well and, obviously, council staff that had been heavily involved in the campaign,” Ms Bowen said.

“The storm was a significant event, in that it did cause widespread devastation and a lot of disruption to our communities.

“It was just a way of thanking people who gave up their time so generously to do that - it’s always important to say thank you.”

Mr Lapsley spoke on the day about forming connections between community groups and leaders, so areas like the Yarra Ranges can respond to disasters and become more resilient.

“He was just highlighting that everyone in the community plays a role whether you’re part of a primary school,

“By developing and creating more of

these community connections with community leaders, it bolsters community resilience.”

Parks Victoria crews are continuing the clean-up from last year’s massive 9 October storm, with Badger Weir and Donnelley’s Weir still closed to visitors four months later.

On Friday, 6 January, Wonga Park resident Lindy Sperring and her husband visited Maroondah Reservoir Park in Healesville.

In a letter sent to the Mail on 29 January, Ms Sperring said she and her partner were “very surprised to find the beautiful park in such a state”, with “overgrown garden beds”, fallen trees and rubbish scattered around the women’s toilets.

She said the carcass of a kangaroo was also seen in the reservoir.

“In the many times we have visited the park, we have never seen it in this sad state and felt embarrassed for all the tourists and visitors the park attracts,” Ms Sperring wrote.

Parks Victoria Area Chief Ranger, Conrad Annal said the “extensive damage” to parks in the area from the 9 October storm resulted in a “significant” clean-up and interruptions to regular maintenance work.

“Rectifying the storm damage has caused some minor disruptions to regular park maintenance sched-

ules,” he said.

“A member of the public recently alerted Parks Victoria to a number of maintenance issues at Maroondah Reservoir Park, including rubbish and broken tiles in the toilets.

“Parks Victoria immediately investigated the issues raised and is addressing them as soon as possible.”

Mr Annal said staff had been removing fallen trees, repairing roads, clearing tracks and repairing visitor facilities since the storm, which saw 120 kilometre per hour winds lash the area.

The Mail reported on 28 October that 162 trees had fallen in Maroondah Reservoir Park alone, with similar, extensive damage to both Donnelly’s Weir and Badger Weir.

Mr Annal said both weirs were “significantly impacted” by the storms, and would remain closed until further notice.

“Parks Victoria is working to make the parks safe again and to re-open both parks as soon as possible,” he said.

He said the kangaroo carcass was reported to Melbourne Water, which manages the reservoir.

Beautiful stitches in time

By Kath Gannaway A display of modern and traditional tapestry is on show this month at the Mont De Lancey Museum in Wandin.

More than 40 works by members of the Needlework and Tapestry Guild of Victoria made up the exhibition which includes the guild’s magnificent 40th anniversary wall hanging, geometric and old-world designs.

President Marion Miller and secretary Anne Bryan launched the display and said the magnificent museum space and historic surrounds at the Wandin historic homestead were an ideal setting with tapestry very popular in the 1800s, about the same era as Mont De Lancey.

“The 1800s saw new and vibrant colours, and people had money to pay for these things to decorate their houses,” Ms Miller said.

“Going back in history, people did it at home because they were not working outside the home.”

While most enthusiasts are in the ‘mature’ age group, Ms Bryan said as with many traditional crafts, social media is revitalising interest in tapestry among younger generations.

Members are very happy, keen in fact, to share their love of the craft and help newcomers.

Ms Bryan says a lot of people think there is just one basic stitch, but there are around 100 different stitches and a range of fancy, colourful threads to work with and create beautiful and unique works.

For more information on the guild, call Ms Bryan on 0400 644 086.

Mont De Lancey museum is at 71 Wellington Road, Wandin North. Open Wednesday to Sunday, 10am to 4pm.

Letters Some compromise It was with dismay that I read the article 'Good compromise plan’ (‘Mail’, 31 January 2017).

The lobbying of the Yarra Waterways Group (YWG) against the expansion of the Yellingbo Conservation Area (YCA) into Crown Land has resulted in political expediency by our local council and State Government representatives, who have not analysed or sought expert second opinions on the issues the YWG raised and presented as fact, before taking action.

Subsequent to the council motion of 13 September to write to the Minister for Energy, Environment and Climate Change, Lily D’Ambrosio, several groups and individuals contacted local and state politicians, DELWP officers and the Yellingbo Conservation Area Consultative Committee (YCACC) with evidence to refute many claims of the YWG. Minister D’Ambrosio was also invited to meet with supporters of the YCA to discuss the issue, but she has never responded to this invitation.

While local papers have printed letters from those opposing the YCA, many supporters have remained silent in the public arena due to the aggressive behaviour and bullying tactics displayed at public forums from some supporters.

The premise spread by the YWG that any revegetation will increase fire risk is false, and it is a disgrace that this is being used to gather support from some in the community, based upon fear.

To any clear-thinking person who has read the scientific evidence available, is it appalling that the Minister has changed the revegetation timeframe and conditions for part of the YCA to pacify its opponents.

I hope community groups, individuals, researchers and other land management agencies continue to provide scientific and evidence

based information to support the development of the YCA, in accordance with the ‘Victorian Government’s Response to the Yellingbo Investigation Area’, despite many of our efforts to date falling on deaf ears.

Karen Garth, Badger Creek.

Going Gaga I have just watched the superbowl half-time show with Lady Gaga for the third time.

I know you are laughing already - Bob has got it bad. Gaga gets trolled on line, misunderstood and criticised more that she deserves.

I enjoy what she does, because she is brave and creative and manages to tap into a level of passion and intensity other entertainers only dream of. So to all the jealous trolls, no talents, leave Gaga alone.

She is better than great IMHO. Stanley R. Burgess, Healesville.

For the fans After reading D. O’Sullivan’s very kind letter, ‘The catch-up, on film’ (Mail, 24 January), I would like to respond with a quick letter of my own.

D. O’Sullivan, I am very thankful for your kind appraisal of my film reviews.

It feels good to know I inform and entertain readers such as yourself, and I am especially flattered by your likening of me to Margaret and David - they are truly prestigious company.

Your gracious letter was, as it happens, my first piece of fan mail, and a great reference for the future.

Seth Hynes, Healesville.

Teen dream A group of teenagers hangs out at the skate park in Don Road. They have done things like wrecking a bike a little kid had left behind, and throwing it in the creek; and destroying the water fountain, which waster thousands of litres of precious water. They litter the area with paper, cans and bottles.

However, recently they did a nice thing. With the hard rubbish put out, they carried an old couch there, tacked up some scraps of carpet, and made themselves a little cubbyhouse. They placed a note: “Please leave.”

The response was two council employees with a truck, who removed it all.

I think much better would have been to send a youth worker to chat with them, take their needs and interests seriously, and help them to find a way of having their cubby house in a way the council would find acceptable.

Which of these two courses of action is likely to move them toward decency, responsibility, cooperation? Which of them is likely to move them toward further alienation, defiance of authority and destructiveness?

Bob Rich, Healesville.

I attended the afternoon opening and was disappointed that Adjunct Professor David Plunkett, after speaking for some time, never once acknowledged the work by our local group.

This group has only the best interest of our community at heart and, quite frankly, I believe Eastern Health’s attitude is very disappointing.

I would like to congratulate all the Save Healesville Hospital Action Group committee for the work they have done and the successes that they have achieved. Keep up the good work.

Anne Dennehy, Healesville.

Cartoon

Silent service On Sunday, 29 January, I attended the Healesville Hospital, for the inspection of the newlybuilt hospital - which was a delight.

However, I was somewhat puzzled when the gentleman who was giving us a running commentary on everything never once mentioned the work that had been done by our local Save Healesville Hospital Action Group.

Pages from the past Healesville Guardian 3 February 1937 In Case You Didn’t Know Members of the Healesville Tourist and Progress Association on Monday night expressed the opinion in no uncertain terms that publicity on the platypus as far as Healesville is concerned, should be curbed.

It was pointed out that many people came here with the express purpose of seeing the platypus but were told it was either hibernating or could not be seen, and many visitors had left the town greatly disappointed.

The association unanimously deemed it expe-

dient that the platypusary in the sanctuary should be re-established.

On Friday Feb 19, Messrs Macarthur and Macleod Pty Ltd in conjunction with Messrs Sydney H. Bradshaw Pty Ltd will sell by auction at Scott’s Hotel Melbourne the property at Healesville known as Wallingford comprising 471 acres and a dwelling of six rooms.

The location is about five miles from the township and there is a permanent creek running through the property. Some 50 acres has been cultivated, the greater part of the balance being ringbarked.

Upper Yarra Mail 16 February 1995 Local Conservation Projects Jim Plowman Member for Evelyn announced that volunteer conservation project groups were to receive funding of $14,910.

The funds go to Friends of Mt Evelyn Aqueduct, Friends of Yarra bridge, Warburton Advancement League for Yarra Ranges, Friends of Leversha Reserve and the Warburton Trail Committee of Management.

It’s a long way to the top...

It’s a long way from busking out the front of AJ’s Bakehouse in Healesville to a national tour, but it’s just part of an ongoing journey for Healesville musician Ash King.

King’s band Smoke Stack Rhino played at The Who Club in Warburton on Saturday night as part of their ‘Love and Other Monsters’ album tour.

The tour will see them play 17 shows in five states and territories and notch up 5000-plus kilometres.

Joining King (guitar, vocals, keys and blues harp) are Dave Sirianni (vocals/guitar), Shane Andison (bass) and Jeremy Berg (drums/ vocals).

The band formed in 2013 around a concept of “bringing the blues back to the mosh pit” and has successfully reconciled the gap

across the blues, roots and rock music genres.

King has proved his endurance for the journey going from busking to competing in the local battles of the bands and launching his first solo album to finally fulfilling his dream of being in a touring band.

Endurance paid off again with ‘Love and Other Monsters’ self-funded through two years of live performances.

Smoke Stack Rhino has one final performance near to home at the Sooki Lounge in Belgrave on Thursday, 16 February, before heading off of the national tour.

Joining Smoke Stack Rhino are six-piece soul band, Mayfield, and acoustic roots guitarist, David Knight.

Visit Smoke Stack Rhino on Facebook for more information on the band and full tour information.

Culture is making tracks

By Jodie Symonds It will be a year full of art, culture and music with this year’s ‘Culture Tracks’.

The event was launched at The Memo in Healesville on Monday 5 February.

About 150 people attended the event to get a preview of the upcoming talent showing this year.

There will be an array of international and Australian talent at six of the Yarra Ranges’ best venues.

Seven of the program’s acts performed at the launch, some including: columnist Hanni Rayson, guitarists Ziggy and Miles Johnston, Blue Heelers actors John Wood and Julie Nhill and the Melbourne Ballet.

Mayor Noel Cliff officially opened Culture Tracks, and said the program was a great way to see some of the best performances without having to travel great distances.

Mayor Noel Cliff with some of the performers. 164725 PICTURE: JODIE SYMONDS “It’s just fabulous,” Cr Cliff said.

He spoke about how Culture Tracks brought the community, art, culture and partners together.

Culture Tracks was proud to present Australian-Israeli singer Lior as a headlining act for the program.

This year’s Culture Tracks

will be held at Burrinja Culture Centre in Upwey, Mooroolbark Community Centre, The Memo in Healesville, Arts Centre Warburton, Montrose Town Centre and Yarra Ranges Regional Museum in Lilydale.

Dates and tickets are available at culturetracks.info or call 1300 368 333

Some early Oscars buzz

By Seth Lukas Hynes This week, I’d like to talk about some of the categories in the upcoming Academy Awards (26 February).

I want Arrival, Denis Villeneuve’s intelligent, riveting film about alien visitation and the human psyche, to win Best Picture, but it probably won’t.

The film is up against excellent competition - including Barry Jenkins’ harrowing African-American drama Moonlight and Damien Chazelle’s charming, Hollywood egostroking La-La Land - and the Academy has always had a general disdain for science fiction.

But Arrival will almost certainly win Best Adapted Screenplay, as it’s a remarkably complete yet innovative interpretation of the source short story. Best Original Screenplay will hopefully go to The Lobster, for its witty, surreal satire of our relationship-obsessed modern culture.

Setting aside the encouraging racial diversity in this year’s acting nominees, there are still some actors who I believe were sorely overlooked.

Michael Keaton was magnetic as McDonald's founder and charismatic sociopath Ray Kroc in The Founder.

Anya Taylor-Joy delivered graceful pathos in The Witch,

and even Daniel Radcliffe deserved a nod for his bold, bizarre performance as a gassy talking corpse in Swiss Army Man. I thought Victoria, a nailbiting German thriller shot in one continuous take, should have been nominated for Best Cinematography, but it had already been unsuccessfully submitted as Germany’s Best Foreign Language Feature nominee for last year’s Oscars.

Oscars results rarely reflect the tastes of the everyday movie-goer, but I’m still excited to see how this year’s Oscars turn out.

Legendary Lee’s top hits at silver

By Jodie Symonds The boy from the bush is getting ready for a big show full of his top hits.

Country music legend Lee Kernaghan spoke to ‘The Mail’ and said he was excited to be performing his 25th anniversary show at the York on Lilydale on Saturday 25 February.

“I think the highlight of 2017 will be playing at the York on Lilydale- I cannot think of a better venue,” Kernaghan said.

Although he has visited the Yarra Ranges before, this will be Kernaghan’s first time performing in Lilydale.

He described the show as a “party atmosphere” with all of his top hits.

“It’s a spectacular show,” Kernaghan said.

“I’ll be turning it on and turning it up for everyone.”

Celebrating the quarter of a century career milestone, he preferred to call his fans 'mates’, as they have inspired his music.

Country music artist Lee Kernaghan. 153639 PICTURE: CONTRIBUTED “ ... because they feel like family,” Kernaghan said.

He said some of his most memorable shows would include the Gympie Muster when he set one of his guitars on fire and his first ever show at the Deniliquin Ute Muster.

Kernaghan opened the 25th

anniversary tour in Tamworth on Thursday 26 January.

He will be joined by Australian country-rock band The Wolfe Brothers and Australian country music artist Christie Lamb.

Final positions firm

By Chris Anderson YARRA VALLEY CRICKET ASSOCIATION With just two rounds remaining before finals, the finals picture is becoming clearer.

However, just as the DJ Strachan Shield ladder looks set, the lower grades still have some intriguing match-ups to come to finalise the combatants.

In DJ Strachan Shield, WarburtonMillgrove and Mount Evelyn have stitched up home finals, while Woori Yallock and Yarra Junction will be their opponents.

The only thing to be settled is who plays who in the semi-finals.

The RA Finger Trophy looks set for a last-ball finish.

No more than seven of the 10 teams can mathematically finish in the top four, with no guarantees as yet.

Coldstream, Gruyere, Hoddles Creek and Healesville currently hold the tickets to the finals, but even the slightest of slip-ups could see them miss altogether.

In DJ Strachan Shield action, Yarra Junction fell agonisingly short of capturing an outright victory against Seville, thus missing the opportunity to leapfrog Woori Yallock on the ladder.

Entering day two, having already captured first innings points and a commanding 80-run lead, the home side elected to declare their innings overnight at 3/120, in a bid to clean up the Blues, and chase what runs were left, if any.

Quite often when a team has been embarrassed with the bat in the first innings, they find some grit in the second with a purpose of saving face and pride.

Seville battled gamely against some excellent bowling once again from the Eagles, but with some resolve they kept their wickets intact more successfully than on day one.

Harrison Byrne was the mainstay of the visitors’ top order; and his gritty, well-made 54 looked to have Seville well on task to see out the day, and therefore denying Yarra Junction a dash for outright points.

Tom Page did his best to support Byrne with 29.

The Blues managed to pass the intended target to ensure Yarra Junction would have to bat again, but the spin bowling of Cam Spaulding would ensure the Eagles would get that opportunity.

Spaulding, often classified as a part-timer behind the likes of Bomford and Dempster in the slow-bowling stakes, has provided some wicket taking spells when required this season; and this was again the case as his tricky lines, lengths and subtle changes of speed caught the Blues off guard.

Although late in the piece, his excellent spell of 6/22 bowled the visitors out for 123, leaving the Eagles 44 to chase off seven overs for victory.

The Eagles threw everything at the outright victory, but Seville captain Matt Hadlum managed to guide his side safe of the indignity of falling to an opposition outright.

His figures of 3/19 in the face of the onslaught ensured there were enough new batsmen who had to take up the pace.

In the end, the Eagles fell four runs

short of their target.

Although disappointed to fall short, Yarra Junction will be chockfull of confidence as their form leading into the pointy end of the season is peaking at the right time of the year, and they are establishing that they won’t be there just to make up the numbers.

They face Yarra Glen in their final hit up before finals, and they will be looking for another complete performance with both bat and ball to have themselves at their peak entering a last round bye.

For Seville, on the other hand, it’s all about pride and consistency against competition leaders, Warburton-Millgrove. The Blues have been a little Jekyll and Hyde over recent rounds with a gutsy performance against Mount Evelyn being followed by a meek showing against Yarra Junction.

An improved performance is a must for them.

At the other end of the scale, Warburton-Millgrove again flexed their collective muscles against Woori Yallock making a difficult chase look relatively easy.

Woori Yallock worked hard with the bat to post a total of 202 on day.

The total looked respectable, and a score that would take some chasing.

Early wickets would be the key, and when Simon Young skittled the inform Ben Lever in the first over, it was game on.

Sean Humphrey has been an excellent acquisition for the Burras since the Christmas break, and his good form continued as he combined with the explosive David Lever for a steadying, and what turned out to be a game-breaking, 123-run partnership.

The pair took the game away from the Tigers with a blistering display of stroke-play.

The visitors looked bereft of answers.

Young claimed some reward for his hard work claiming Humphrey (48) on the stroke of tea, and with a rest and refreshment, the Tigers could press on the opening, but the Burras batting line-up in proving too strong for most opposition this summer.

Although still winnings games off his own back this season, Lever would be disappointed with his returns with the bat this far, and he had a point to prove.

When in full flight, he is an irresistible force, severe on anything full, and anything short.

His combination with Liam Barnard (26) for a partnership of 59 runs ended this contest.

The only blemish in Lever’s innings was he was unable to see his team home to the victory target, as his brilliant century will prove a warning to the other team’s in the competition that his ability with both and ball will be a key card for the Burras come finals time.

Tim McKail (35no) enjoyed some early beach party time with a brisk innings that saw his team to 4/235, and an extremely impressive victory against a quality opposition.

Simon Young battled gamely for 3/69, but he is playing a lone hand for the Tigers at the moment, and without his partner in crime, Jackson Wright, the Tigers looked toothless against the

Burras.

Woori Yallock are now winless since Christmas, and in a desperate need of a reversal of form leading into finals.

They need more contributors to support the likes of Simon Young and Ryan Smith if they are to challenge for a hat-trick of premierships.

There were some signs of improvement with the bat this round; and this will need to continue as they travel to Healesville next round.

Warburton-Millgrove in the other hand could not be better placed as their form with both bat and ball seems complete. Complacency is their only enemy in a near flawless season thus far. The Burras will view their contest with Seville as another opportunity to fine tune things before a last round encounter against Mount Evelyn and finals.

The question is, who is going to stop them?

Mount Evelyn are hot on their heels; and although less impressive with their victories, the Mounters keep notching up the wins with consistent form.

After posting an impressive 5/339 on day one, they had little trouble defending the score, despite some valiant resistance from Healesville.

The target was always going to be tough to chase; and with some impressive bowling up front, the Mounters gave their opposition limited scoring opportunities despite their fight with the bat. With the fourth wicket falling with the score on 41, and with over a third of the overs gone, the Bloods efforts looked forlorn.

Mark Minney joined Scott Hamer (31) at the crease and the pair upped the scoring rate in a bid to give the Bloods some chance of chasing the total after tea.

This was curtailed somewhat by the wicket of Hamer on the stroke of the break. The home side sensed an easy kill, but the inform Mark Minney would have none of it. In a bleak season, Minney has been a shining light for the Bloods.

In a stroke of fortune, Minney, a legend of Eltham Cricket Club, with a decorated career in the Diamond Valley, looked to spend some time playing cricket with his son Max, and he has rarely failed this season.

With partners running out, and the required run rate ballooning, Minney set on a calculated assault on a tiring bowling outfit.

A quick-scoring 82-run partnership with Dylan Moore (22) put some pressure on the impatient fielding side, but just as the deficit had been closed, and a score beyond 200 beckoned the resistance was broken down.

Moore fell with the score on 181, and the rest of the cards fell quickly.

Minney followed for an excellent 82, leaving him to wait yet again for a much rewarded century after five half centuries in seven innings.

Gareth Fraser (3/30) proved to be the game breaker cleaning up the tail, and the innings for 190.

Mount Evelyn now have a couple of weeks rest courtesy of the bye, and will eagerly await their final round clash against Warburton-Millgrove.

The Burras are the only side the Mounters are yet to conquer and a

victory would be a huge boost going into finals.

Healesville on the other hand will be looking for some competitive showings over the final weeks of a trying season. The Bloods had high aspirations for the season after falling just short in last season’s grand final, but they haven’t met expectations with a mixed bag of performances.

They return home for a clash against a stumbling Woori Yallock and a victory or two in the closing rounds will make the bitter pill easier to swallow when the season is all said and done.

Never in hunt HEALESVILLE BOWLS Healesville (1) travelled to Upwey-Tecoma to play their second side, only to get beaten easily and were never really in the hunt, in a very disappointing effort.

After a promising start to the season, they are now placed eighth on the ladder and are struggling to avoid relegation.

Healesville (2) played Montmorency (6) at home and had a good win with super veteran Cliff MacLaine’s rink having a big win 41/5 and covering for the two losing rinks; they are now fifth and level on points with fourth-placed Eastwood Golf (2).

Saturday’s Pennant results: Healesville (1) 1/53 def by Upwey-Tecoma 17/104: J. Harris 11/36, C. Lowe 21/21, T. Pye 13/16, R. Young 8/31.

Healesville (2) 13/85 def Montmorency 6 5/66: L. Stewart 17/22, C. McLaine 41/5, B. Brookes 10/22, R. Turnville 17/17.

Healesville Bowling Club’s eagerly awaited Corporate Challenge kicks off again on Wednesday, 15 February at 6pm and goes for six weeks, with the final being played on the last week.

There are 26 local businesses contesting the competition and all are as keen as mustard to be number one on the final night.

Last-time winners McDonald Maintenance butters up again, along with many others, including Coles, Bendigo Bank, Rotary, Mocha and Lime, Healesville Hospital, Barz Up - to name a few.

Burras shine WARBURTON BOWLS Beautiful conditions were enjoyed by all bowlers on Saturday with Warburton (1) returning to form at home, winning 110 to 55.

Well done to Jason Van Der Zweep on skipping his first Pennant game, winning 22/16.

Other rink scores were: P. Woods 31/10; J. Brooks 30/11 and B. Woods 27/18.

They play top side Blackburn (1) away this week.

Warburton (2) came back from a long way at the break to be within a few shots with a few ends to go against top side Ringwood (3) away.

However, Ringwood steadied at the finish to win 89 to 68.

Rink scores: C. Gell 13/31; R. Zunneberg 18/23; S. Mahoney 24/18 and G. Wynd 13/17.

They play Chirnside Park (2) at home this week.

Warburton (3), unfortunately, had to forfeit due to several players unavailable.

Hopefully, they can field a team this week against Monbulk (3) away this week.

Max scores WARBURTON GOLF WEDNESDAY Stableford - The winner was Max Carvill with 36 points. There were five players on 36, so there was a countback with Allan Hubbard runner-up.

As expected, balls only went to 35.

The NTP winners were A.J. (3rd), this time Allan made his birdie. Ossie won on the 9th, and on the 15th, Ron Neilson.

Twilight: Jason Kennedy came out on top, with 20 points from David Clinch on a countback. Balls extended to 17. The NTPs went to Mr Kempton (1st), Ralph Logan (3rd) and Grant Handasyde (9th).

SATURDAY Stableford 2-Ball - The best performing pair on the day, with a staggering 50 points, were Peter Bell and Ralph Logan. Well done, boys. Just behind, accumulating 49 points were Ian Garside and Trevor Porter. As expected, balls only went down to 45. The NTPs went to Peter Fox (3rd), Shane Campbell (5th), Clinchy (9th), Allan Hubbard (12th) and Danny Fox (15th).

Great results for shield finals

By Jamie Strudley YARRA RANGES ATHLETICS Yarra Ranges Athletics senior athletes track and field Shield season came to a close on Sunday with four teams qualifying for the Athletics Victoria Shield Finals - Open Women and Open Men, Under 16s Women and Under 16s Men, competing at Lakeside Stadium.

This was an excellent reward after 12 rounds of summer competition.

Athletes across a range of track and field events score points for the club, with total points determining the team position on the ladder.

A long, tiring, but ultimately enjoyable day saw our four teams finish with exceptional team and individual performance.

Final results were unavailable at the time of printing; however, it is likely the Open Women team finished an agonisingly close second place behind a strong Mentone team.

The other teams were unofficially 5th (Open Men), 6th (Women U16s) and 8th (Men U16s).

Stand-out perfomances came from Michaela Duncan, Lucas Taylor, Harrison Van Duuren and Mia Strudley.

Special mention to Mia, who added three extra events to her day’s activities to cover for ill or absent athletes, 2000m steeplechase, 1500m, 100m and 400m.

This week’s Yarra Ranges Athletics competition on Saturday morning was the unique and busy ‘Choose Your Own Event’ round.

Oliver competes in the long jump. 164806 Unlike a standard round, when events are scheduled for each age group, athletes were able to choose their favourite events, or an event they were looking to improve.

Parents and officials were kept busy as all possible events were offered to athletes in one morning.

The format provided a fantastic morning of competition and smiles.

With only one week until the Eastern Metropolitan Region Championships, the choose your own event round is often used as a ‘fine tune’ for competition.

Conditions were almost perfect for achieving new personal best results, and these conditions helped several athletes achieve new club records on the day, with the most spectacular being Under 15s athlete, Zane Wheeler, setting a new club record and personal best of 1.77m.

Motoring Oh brother!

What a feat In the space of just over one month, Millgrove-based Paull brothers, Jamie and Justin, have achieved an historic and impressive feat, both being crowned 2016-’17 season Victorian Champions in their respective classes.

Representing the openwheel class, Justin claimed a hard-fought win in the Victorian Compact Speedcar Title at Rushworth Speedway in December.

Jamie, not to be outdone, recently sped to a popular victory in the Victorian Sports Sedan Title at Rosedale Speedway, after a challenging five years in the class.

It was a difficult run in qualifying, due to not yet nailing the correct set-up, which saw him line up ninth for the feature race.

Jamie, who won the 2008 Victorian Marsh Modifieds Title at Rushworth Speedway, managed to work his way through the quality field in the 35-lap feature race, making his way up to second place with 10 laps remaining.

Bridging the gap between himself and race leader Andrew Jordan, Paull gave it everything he had in his VZ Holden Commodore, making a low dive on

Jordan on the final turn of the last lap to take the lead and seize the Victorian Title crown.

“It’s such a great feeling to win another Victorian Title, particularly with Justin having also won one recently,” Jamie said.

He was also awarded the Best Presented Car award at the Victorian Title event, having completed Ripper Sticker kits for both his and Justin’s cars.

“It’s great for our team to know that we can both be competitive while running different classes and it just goes to show how much the hard work our team continuously puts in has paid off,” he said.

Off the back of his convincing Victorian Title win, after two disappointing DNFs in previous Victorian Titles, Justin’s strong form continued recently when he took to the track at Brisbane’s Archerfield Speedway in Queensland for the Australian Compact Speedcar Title.

Starting out of position six for the 30-lap feature race, Justin gave an impressive performance to move into podium contention, where he became involved in a tough battle with Nathan Mathers for the final podium place.

Unable to hold off Mathers’ advances, Paull relinquished third place and went on to finish

a gallant fourth.

“To come away with a fourth-place finish in the Australian Title against the best drivers in the country, as well as the Victorian Title, is an amazing feeling,” Justin said.

“Jamie and I come from a family of racers, so to both come away with Victorian Titles in one season is extremely exciting for us all and it’s no doubt in part due to the amazing support we receive from our family and our sponsors.”

With their dad, Phil, previously racing Super Sedans, their mum, Debra, previously racing One Litre Sedans and their sister, Tania, currently racing Compact Speedcars, both Jamie and Justin have a rich racing pedigree and largely credit their supportive families for their recent success.

While Justin can’t thank his girlfriend Amy and daughter Kaleysha enough for always being by his side, Jamie also especially thanks his wife, Fahy, who has been there every step of the way through all of the highs and lows, as well as his son, Clay, who loves to help work on the race car and watch his dad race.
