Gazza’s coming home

Gary Ablett Jnr has paid an emotional tribute to the “overwhelming” support he received after the death of his sister.

The superstar’s “emotional rollercoaster” ended in the last hour of AFL trading on Thursday when the Gold Coast Suns sent him home to Geelong.

The agreement brought Ablett and his family “some joy” as they struggled with Natasha’s death, he said.

Ablett thanked both clubs, his fans, supporters and “the wider community”.

“The support has been overwhelming,” Gary Ablett he said.

“It saddens me deeply to have to say goodbye to my beautiful sister … we will miss her every day.”

But the Geelong homecoming provided some relief at a “difficult and painful time”, Ablett said.

Jail for one-punch killer “As you ran away from your mortally injured victim, he lay on Russell Street and was unconscious when attended to by passing doctors who did their best to preserve his life until emergency services arrived,” Justice Riordan said.

“You were intercepted by police elsewhere in the city and you initially denied any involvement in a fight however, in your formal interview, you admitted your wrongful conduct.”

Vincec wrote to Mr Walker’s family accepting full responsibility for his death and rang police every day until his victim died, the court heard.

Justice Riordan took the guilty plea into account when handing down the sentence and said Vincec had shown genuine remorse.

Vincec’s prospects of rehabilitation were good due to his supportive partner, stable employment, determination to support his children and compliance with bail conditions, Justice Riordan said.

The court heard Vincec had previous convictions for violent offending.

Mum, daughters’ cooking on show

Police have laid hit-run charges over the death of an 18-year-old Winchelsea man west of Geelong.

Detectives alleged a 21-year-old man, also from Winchelsea, failed to stop or render assistance after a four-wheel-drive he was driving collided with the bike rider at Buckley on Wednesday night.

Shares trouble Corangamite MP Sarah Henderson (pictured) has officially reported “one or more” potential discrepancies on her shareholdings register.

Ms Henderson wrote to the members’ interest registrar that she was “urgently reviewing” her shareholdings after reports this week that she faced investigation over undisclosed shares.

Acid outbreak Another outbreak of acidic water has forced Surf Coast Shire to issue a warning against swimming in Anglesea River or eating its fish.

The river has suffered numerous acid flows in recent years, with the shire blaming “natural sources” in the river’s catchment area.

By Luke Vogt Royal Geelong Show entrants have urged locals to get behind the annual agricultural event to keep it “thriving”.

Lisa Smith encouraged her daughters Irma and Arielle to enter after moving to Gherang in April.

Contributing to the show helped promote the region’s farmers, she said.

“And it encourages the girls to learn skills like photography and cooking.”

Arielle entered blueberry muffins, cornflake slice, octopus-themed cupcakes and photos of her horse Jimmy in her first Royal Geelong Show.

The avid baker and photographer won awards at a few Bendigo shows before her family moved.

“I hope I go well,” she said.

The 12-year-old was at the showgrounds on Wednesday as judging commenced and crews set up stalls and rides.

“There was lots going on and it was very bright and colourful,” she said.

Rain dampened the start of the show on Thursday morning but failed to deter local school groups, organiser Vanessa Wight said.

“It’s really great to see all the young ones coming through. The weather’s looking very good for the rest of the show.”

Vanessa was pleased with the number of entries and thanked the judges.

“The man hours that the volunteers put into the show is amazing - it would not run without them,” she said.

The show’s committee promoted “30 free things to do” in the lead up to the event including racing pigs, live music and the donkey derby.

“The committee have showed a great deal of resilience through difficult times and we’re heading in a direction that’s really exciting,” Vanessa said.

Death charges

Nurses’ action Nurses have continued industrial action against a Moolap aged care facility as they agitate for higher pay and staffing ratios.

The nurses stopped completing paperwork at Bupa Bellarine Lakes and refused overtime unless approved in writing as part of a campaign at the Bupa’s 26 facilities in Victoria.

Change ‘hub’ “Change-makers” now have access to a shared office space in Geelong’s TAC headquarters for “creating a positive impact on the world”, according to the building’s owner.

Impact Investment Group said the “coworking space” would help make the Brougham St building a “hub for innovation, connection and enterprise for the Geelong region”.

Ocean Grove father-of-three Richard Andrew Vincec will spend at least five years behind bars after killing a 22-year-old man with a single punch.

Supreme Court Justice Peter Riordan sentenced Vincec to eight years prison with a nonparole period of five years after he pleaded guilty to manslaughter on Thursday.

Vincec punched Jaiden Walker in the left cheek outside Cherry Bar in Melbourne’s CBD on 6 May, causing him to fall back and hit his head on the ground, the court heard.

Mr Walker died in hospital on 12 May after suffering a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain.

“As a result of your actions, a fine young man has been deprived of the rest of his adult life,” Justice Riordan said.

“One hopes that the intensity of the pain (Mr Walker’s family feels) will be reduced in the pas-

sage of time, but it will never be completely resolved.”

On the day of the manslaughter Vincec had been drinking and took drugs in the toilet of the bar.

Security camera vision played in court showed Vincec kissing a woman outside the bar who Mr Walker had been in a sexual relationship with.

After two minutes, the woman pushed Vincec away. Vincec offered to shake Mr Walker’s hand, who ignored him and moved away.

“You moved towards Jaiden, insisting that he shake your hand and you escalated the situation by saying ‘shake me hand, c***’,” Justice Riordan said.

The two eventually shook hands aggressively. “(You) said ‘grab my hand like that and I’ll hit you,” Justice Riordan said.

Friends tried to restrain the two men for 15 seconds before Vincec moved around them and punched Mr Walker in the left cheek.

Double Take Those boots might be made for walking but 300 pairs of free shoes are making a real impression in East Geelong.

The freebies were delivered to the students of Geelong East Primary School this week after it was chosen from a field of more than 800 schools as the winner of an initiative promoting the Walk to School campaign.

VicHealth and Bendigo Bank dealt out the footwear on Thursday morning, encouraging the kids to add their own decorations in support of the campaign.

A childhood spent in Corio battling a heart condition will culminate in a documentary with a difference at Melbourne Underground Film Festival this month.

Steve Williams’ Urine Aid explores the alleged therapeutic benefits of - blerk - drinking or bathing in wee.

Steve (pictured) says the documentary is a consequence of his interest in alternative therapies, which he developed after unfavourable experiences with traditional medicine as a kid.

Steve’s film interviews various people who claim the bizarre therapy’s efficacy in treating everything from cancer to ageing processes.

That’s a bit hard to, er, swallow, so did Steve

do personal research and put the medicine where his mouth is?

“Yes,” he claims, “it would be very hypocritical to make a film about urine thereby and not try it myself.

“I pinched my nose and went straight for it. It was a little unpleasant with a salty flavour but, honestly, not as bad as you would think.”

Actually, we’d prefer not to think about it at all, thanks Steve.

Council election candidates have been busily spruiking their credentials as greater Geelong enters the final week of campaigning.

But one candidate has received a reputational leg-up from an unexpected quarter - Slovenia.

The additional feather in Eddy Kontelj’s campaign cap arrived this week when the country’s Australian embassy appointed him Honorary Consul for the Republic of Slovenia.

Not the usual OAM or footy club life membership, to be sure!

And it’s not just a trinket, either. The unusual gig comes with a new Geelong office, open after hours and on weekends, for Eddy to “foster and build healthy relationships and connections between Australia and Slovenia”.

So now he’s Honorary Consul for the Republic of Slovenia, managing director of Catepillar dealer Williams Adams, and soon possibly City of Greater Geelong councillor for Brownbill Ward.

Maybe he can use the side of a Caterpillar for his business card!

Leak left for five months ‘despite repair requests’

By Luke Voogt A failure to plug a leak drenching front yards in Highton for five months has angered residents.

Porter Avenue resident Rod Fraser rang Barwon Water three times only to be “handballed from one person to another”, he said on Tuesday.

“We’re in the 21st century, how can’t they fix a water leak? It’s ridiculous.”

But the authority stated on Thursday that it would fix the leak next fortnight, following Indy inquiries.

“It seems funny how all of a sudden things have happened,” Mr Fraser said on Thursday.

“It’s about time.”

Other neighbours had phoned to complain about water streaming into the street “24-7”, Mr Fraser said.

“The front yard of the house next to us is shockingly wet. They’ve rung to complain but nothing gets done - it’s pretty bloody ordinary isn’t?”

Barwon Water had scheduled a complex repair on the water main for next fortnight, infrastructure manager Paul Northey said on Thursday.

“We apologise for the inconvenience to these customers. They have done the right thing by contacting Barwon Water to report the issue several times.”

But the complexity of the repair prevented Barwon Water from resolving it sooner, Mr Northey said.

Barwon Water identified the pinhole leak in a main on South Valley Road, near the intersection with Porter Avenue and installed “a temporary fix” while planning repairs, he said.

But the fix broke and water had been travelling

Gazza’s big return From page 1 “I’m excited to return to where it all began and get around the club and my new teammates in due time.”

Ablett was especially looking forward to playing again for Cats fans, noting their reaction when he returned for his first match with the Suns at Simonds Stadium. He was prepared for “serious booing” but was surprised when they cheered him instead.

Ablett concluded his statement with a request for privacy as the family prepared for its “final goodbye to Tash”.

Thirty-five-year-old Natasha died in non-suspicious circumstances on Friday 13 October.

The Suns agreed to release Ablett from his contract a year early for Geelong’s pick 19 in the 2017 draft and the club’s second-round choice in 2018.

The dual Brownlow medallist and two-time Geelong premiership player cited family reasons for his wish to return.

On Thursday the Cats said they were ecstatic with the trade.

“We are very pleased to have Gary return to the club and the Geelong community,” club football general manager Simon Lloyd said.

“Gary is still playing exceptional football, and we believe he improves our team. He obviously has a long association with the club and to have Gary back, playing so well is an exciting day for everyone involved with the club. We know in talking to Gary that he is thrilled about coming back to Geelong.”

But some football figures were less enthusiastic about Ablett’s return.

“Can’t wait to play against Geelong’s midfield … #saidnooneever,” St Kilda’s David Armitage posted on Twitter.

He said isolating the main could affect the thousands of customers which it services.

“The size and location of the main means the repair has to be carefully planned.”

He said Barwon Water would work with the customers affected by the leak to reinstate the nature strip and front yards if required.

Almost a third of residents have voted in Geelong's council elections a week ahead of the 27 October deadline, according to Victorian Electoral Commission.

A $4 million dredging project will boost Geelong shipping safety ahead of an expected increase in port trade, according to a state authority.

The seven-week project would assist larger vessels now using Geelong’s port after previous initiatives to improve access in recent years, said Victorian Regional Channels Authority chief Michael Harvey.

The ongoing improvements “highlight to the shipping world that Geelong is a vibrant and efficient port”, Mr Harvey said.

“Forecasting and modelling predict that there will be additional tonnes through the port during the next few years. The works will improve safety for vessels and tugs alike.”

The seven-week project had secured formal approval and met “all requirements for the projection of the marine environment”, Mr Harvey.

A Machiavelli backhoe dredger would return

to Geelong for the project after completing previous dredging works in the port during 2014 and 2015.

Barges would then dump the Corio Channel spoil east of Point Wilson in an area previously used for the same purpose, Mr Harvey explained.

Dredging and placement activities would be managed under the strict controls of an approved environmental management plan, he said.

“I am completely confident that these works will improve safety and efficiency while protecting the bay.”

“There will be no interruption to normal shipping activity in the port although a 100-metre exclusion zone will be in force around the dredging operations. Notices to mariners will be issued.“ The port has recorded booming trade in recent years on the back of substantial grain harvests across Victoria and New South Wales.

Charity overheads on rise

By Luke Voogt

COSTLY BUSINESS: Give Where You Live chief executive Bill Mithen. 153742 Mr Mithen cited charities such as World Vision, Oxfam and Variety Club Victoria which had expenses ranging from 19 to 31 per cent.

“Give Where You Live Foundation operates a reasonably unique business model, and it can be difficult to find other like organisations making comparisons difficult.”

In 2016-’17 the foundation assisted more than 7800 people in Geelong with food, material aid and pharmacy aid, Mr Mithen said.

“Many of these received food for their families and children that if they had not have received would have meant they would have gone hungry.”

The foundation supported 2000 young people struggling with homelessness, unemployment, addiction and domestic violence.

In the ’90s. Uniting Way Geelong advertised that it donated 90 cents in the dollar to Geelong.

But Mr Mithen said the expenses had been “well over 10 per cent since the 1960s”.

Police have identified human remains found near Anglesea as those of missing woman Elisa Curry.

The Surrey Hills mother was last seen at a residence on Aireys Street, Aireys Inlet about 10pm on 30 September.

Police attended Point Roadknight beach about 11.30am last Wednesday after a woman walking a dog located suspected human remains.

They confirmed the identity on Monday following pathology tests.

Police were not treating the death as suspicious but continued their investigation Elisa Curry this week.

Mrs Curry went missing on AFL Grand Final night, sparking a ground and air search spanning a 20-kilometre radius of her family’s Aireys Inlet holiday home.

Investigators lacked clues common in other cases, such as her clothing at the time, mobile phone signals and witnesses after she left the house.

The 43-year-old disappeared overnight before her husband David and their three children returned the next morning after attending the Grand Final.

Mrs Curry had sent a text message to them the night before about the Grand Final result.

Search crews scoured bushland, beaches and cliffs for four days before acknowledging the chance of finding Mrs Curry alive was “very remote”.

On 5 October Inspector Peter Seel revealed Mrs Curry spoke to a neighbour about a “personal” matter before disappearing.

The cost of running Geelong’s leading charity has doubled in 20 years, with nearly a third of donations going towards operating expenses.

Give Where You Live spent 29 per cent of its revenue on expenses in 2016, compared to 14 per cent in 1996 as Uniting Way Geelong.

But the foundation’s chief executive Bill Mithen said charities increasingly had to compete for donated dollars.

“Our donors and the community expect us to achieve good results ... and you can’t do that for nothing.”

The foundation spent 16 per cent on expenses in 1997, according to its annual report, compared to 27 per cent in the past financial year.

Mr Mithen admitted the foundation’s workforce had increased, but said expenditure had remained between 20 and 30 per cent for the past decade.

“My board is really careful and prudent about the amount of money that we spend.

“You tread that line between investing and spending prudently, and achieving the maximum outcomes.”

In 1996 Uniting Way Geelong recorded advertising and campaign costs of $146 and $9011 respectively.

Give Where You Live’s market, fund-raising and events expenses totalled $506,982 during 2015-’16.

But the foundation’s contribution to Geelong had also increased by a third during the 20 years, allowing for inflation.

The foundation contributed $2.86 million to Geelong in 2016-’17, compared to $1.2m in 1996 - about $1.96m in today’s dollars.

“We think it’s a good result,” Mr Mithen said.

“There’s a lot of hard work that goes into that.”

Recent decades had seen the establishment of new charitable organisations in Geelong, he said.

“Previously, we were probably the only organisation in Geelong who was a really active fundraiser.”

THE CITY WELCOMES THE FESTIVE SEASON WITH ONE SPECTACULAR WEEKEND Geelong’s Christmas celebrations will open with a bang as the City hosts a weekend full of free attractions and visual delights to mark the start of the festive season.

It all begins on Friday 10 November, when Geelong’s Floating Christmas Tree will return to the bay. One lucky local child – chosen through a City-wide colouring competition – will have the honour of flicking the switch to officially launch the City’s celebrations. See page seven to enter.

Lara RSL has made an “important contribution” to Australia’s wartime understanding with a cigarette case made from the windscreen of a Japanese Zero fighter plane.

The “historically significant” Word War II relic will appear in a curated display supporting a national initiative digitally preserving 100,000 objects, according to a Museums Victoria spokesperson.

The cigarette case was an example of “trench art” made from “the debris and by-products of warfare”, the spokesperson said.

“The object makes an important contribution to our understanding of Australian soldiers’ experience of the war.

“Normally located at Lara RSL sub-branch, the cigarette case is catalogued online through Victorian Collections, a central portal to Victoria’s rich cultural heritage and diverse histories for use by historians, researchers and the general public.

“Victorian Collections allows members of cultural organisations to capture and store critical information about their collections in a safe and secure manner, and publish the resulting records online. Lara RSL Sub-branch joins hundreds of groups in contributing to this growing database of objects.

“These objects represent the breadth and diversity of cultural materials made accessible through Victorian Collections - spanning fine art, war heritage, sporting culture, technology and innovation, archaeological finds, and social history.”

More than 450 organisations across the state had contributed to the collections initiative, Museums Victoria said.

Other examples of contributed items ranged from “a mummified cat and Ned Kelly’s cartridge case to a koala tea-cosy”, the organisation said.

The Lara cigarette case and other items go on display at Melbourne Museum on 26 October.

A sport legend - and that’s official

By Luke Voogt Roger Allen will give North Geelong cricket a much-needed boost after becoming Geelong’s first Club Legend on Monday night.

The 69-year-old received $5000 for himself and his club after winning the Viva Energy Australia Club Legend Award.

“We’ve been battling to get grants for some junior nets out here,” he told the Indy the next day at Keith Barclay Oval. “(The money) will just about top it off if I get my way - which I will.”

Roger was overwhelmed to receive the award after more than 50 years playing and volunteering for his beloved North Geelong Cricket Club.

“For Viva to come along and honour people like this is incredible,” he said.

“You don’t expect something like this to come along - you do this because you love doing it.”

Roger has held almost every position at the club and won its clubman award five years in a row.

The committee re-named the trophy after him so it could be “shared around” with the club’s other “role models”, he said.

“North Geelong Cricket Club’s not just one person.“ Past players and selfless volunteers, such as Jared Lewis, had helped keep the club strong, he said.

“He’s out here now fixing up a wicket.”

He thanked his wife of 48 years and fellow volunteer, Barbara, who he introduced to the club as his girlfriend half a century ago.

“I wouldn’t be able to do it without her,” he said. “She’s still doing a heap of stuff.”

Roger congratulated the award’s 147 nominees and 20 finalists, like long-time Ocean Grove surf lifesaver David Renton.

“Fifty-one years of lifesaving patrols is amazing,” he said.

“I know a lot of people who do the stuff I do at other clubs and that’s why it’s so humbling.

“A lot of people do the same things in every

sporting club in Geelong.“ Goalkeeping granny Claire Barnes took the runner-up prize after helping Newtown City Hockey Club become the largest regional club in Victoria.

“She coaches my grandchildren in hockey,” Roger said.

Claire won an Order of Australia earlier this year for her contribution to recruitment and junior development.

North Geelong Warriors Football Club junior coach and operations manager Josip Zilic won the People’s Choice Award.

The club nominated him for his “can-do attitude” and efforts in integrating migrant communities into Australian sport.

Claire and Josip received $2000 for themselves and their clubs.

Viva refinery general manager Thys Heyns congratulated the nominees, finalists and winners on their contribution to their clubs and to the community.

“We are proud to support such inspiring role models within Greater Geelong’s sporting clubs and we are proud to be part of this great community,” he said.

The other 17 finalists of the Club Legend Award were: Len Alford - Newtown and Chilwell Football and Netball Club; Susan Bissett - Tennis Geelong; Kevin Bowers - Surfside Waves Soccer Club; Carmel Brown - Geelong Canoe Club; Mandi Cole - Geelong Guild Athletic Club; Jill Delahunty - Special Olympics Barwon; Criag Durston - Guild All-Stars Baseball Club; Vic Fuller - Geelong Football Club; Fiona Gray - Dolphins Basketball Club; Rebecca Henriksen - St Albans Football and Netball Club; Sadat-Jon Hussain - Geelong Swimming Club; Mary McDonald - Chilwell Athletics Seniors and Little Athletics; Bill Polwarth - Geelong West Giants; John Reaney - Geelong Gaels; David Renton - Ocean Grove Surf Life Saving Club; Lyn Toll - Geelong Rangers FC; Tamika Wood - Bell Post Hill Football and Netball Club.

$5m carbon cash Deakin University’s Carbon Nexus centre received a $5 million boost from the Federal Government on Tuesday to expand its operations.

The university and business partner LeMond Composites received $2.5m each from the government’s $10.1m Advanced Manufacturing Growth Fund.

Vice-Chancellor Jane den Hollander welcomed the investment in “Geelong’s future.”

Earlier this year the university and LeMond Composites signed a $58 million deal to use local carbon fibre technology in world-class bicycles.

Three-time Tour de France winner and founder of the company Greg LeMond signed the agreement with Prof den Hollander in June.

“Our university has played a key role in finding these solutions, leveraging off our world-class research, infrastructure, and industry and government partnerships,” Prof den Hollander said.

The Geelong Economic Futures blueprint identified carbon fibre as a key project for the city.

“As we all know, Geelong’s future is high-value, advanced manufacturing,” Prof den Hollander said.

“For Geelong to secure 34 per cent of the Advanced Manufacturing Growth Fund’s first round demonstrates the strength of this vision.”

Prof den Hollander praised Federal Corangamite MP Sarah Henderson for advancing “the region’s plan in Canberra”.

Deakin established its Carbon Nexus centre at Waurn Ponds in 2014 to research carbon fibre production methods and composite manufacturing techniques.

Prof den Hollander said the centre had since helped establish Geelong as a world leader in carbon fibre research and manufacturing, and created new jobs in the region.

Put the finger on build site crime Police want reports of suspicious after-hours activity on building sites after recovering a “large hoard” of stolen tradie items at St Leonards.

Power tools, scaffolding, trailers, building materials, three motorbikes and two other vehicles were among last week’s haul, police said.

Officers arrested a female over the Ward Street bust then released her pending summons, police said.

“Investigations are still ongoing and likely further arrests will be made in relation to the matter.”

The investigators obtained a search warrant for the residential address after reports of “several” building-site burglaries across the Bellarine Peninsula.

Police called on residents around Geelong to be “pro-active” in fighting crime on local building sites.

Witnesses could report suspicious activity to

EYE ON CRIME: Police have called for reports of suspicious activity on local building sites. support the region’s Building Site Crime Prevention Initiative, police said.

The first potential indication of suspicious activity was people on-site after dark or outside normal

building hours. Other indicators could be unknown people “loitering” around sites then returning later, or individuals removing materials from rear or side doors, police advised.

Witnesses could also watch for people damaging or removing fixtures on-site, or loading recently delivered items into vehicles with obscured or missing registration numbers.

Police also urged neighbours to consider “unusual circumstances” during daytime, such as an apparent carpenter taking away a hot-water unit.

“As a general guide, ask yourself (whether) the description of the goods removed match the person seen removing them?

“If at night, why would a person be removing materials when the site is in darkness?”

Anyone witnessing suspicious activity or vandalism should record descriptions of suspects and any

registration numbers then “immediately” report the details by phoning triple-zero, police said.

Theft from building sites emerged as a significant local crime issue in recent years as the region underwent a construction boom with the opening of numerous new residential developments.

In 2013 the Indy reported that local police had launched a campaign utilising surveillance cameras and invisible ink to catch on-site thieves. The initiative followed a rise in site thefts at emerging estates at Armstrong Creek, Ocean Grove and Clifton Springs. The Housing Industry Association (HIA) estimated the same year that the thefts were costing on average $1500 per site.

“With construction levels around 50,000 new starts per year, this amounts to a massive $75 million raw cost passed on to consumers,” the HIA’s regional director said at the time.

Helipad is saving life without limit Barwon Health’s new helipad helped save almost three lives a week across Victoria since it opened in June 2016.

Almost 200 flights left the $11.5 million helipad at University Hospital Geelong since it opened - including 143 in the first 12 months.

On average, there have been 2.9 flights each week, with about 59 per cent of transfers coming from the HEMS4 air ambulance based in Warrnambool.

Barwon Health emergency department director Michael Sheridan estimated the average was an increase of about 50 per cent compared to the previous helipad.

“The helipad has improved the ability for inbound patients to arrive at Barwon Health consistently,” he said.

“Access to the previous helipad was sometimes limited by the buildings around it, particularly weather patterns that made it difficult to land.

“Now as one of the highest points in Geelong, it’s always uninterrupted access to the hospital.”

Dr Sheridan said the helipad provided numerous clinical benefits to patients treated in the emergency department.

Geelong’s catheterisation laboratory saw a significant growth in the treatment of people with heart attacks thanks to the helipad, he said.

“The new helipad and lift system can make a 15-minute difference in getting someone to treatment in a cath lab. The reception is smoother, safer and quicker.

“We can provide a life-saving procedure earlier because we have direct access with a seamless transition to different areas, and a pre-hospital notification system that has a team waiting to assess patients on arrival.”

The new helipad had also improved the care of critically unwell patients, who transfer from a regional or rural hospitals, and complex trauma patients, Dr Sheridan said.

Diwali fest to go off with a bang Fireworks will light up Geelong’s waterfront in Hindu celebration of light over darkness on Friday.

The display is the finale of Diwali, the Hindu festival of lights, which comes to Deakin University’s waterfront campus for a night of Indian culture.

Diwali is an annual celebration that signifies the victory of good over evil, knowledge over ignorance and hope over despair.

The festival represents new beginnings, and is a time to come together and experience a moment of rejuvenation and good fortune.

Diwali is one of the highlights of the Deakin calendar, and the university has celebrated it for the past nine years.

Official celebrations take place at the campus, including special cultural performances, food and market stalls.

Festivities include music, jewellery, saris, henna tattoo and children’s activities.

Diwali takes place in either October or November each year, depending on the cycle of the moon.

Letters Geelong lights up foundation I thank everyone who supported the Leukaemia Foundation’s recent Light the Night fund-raising walk at Geelong.

By raising money, carrying a lantern or donating they have shown families facing blood cancer that they’re not alone, even in their darkest hour.

Over $13,584 was raised by the wonderful Geelong community. This money will fund the emotional and practical support needed to beat blood cancer.

The Leukaemia Foundation provides locals living with blood cancer and their families with emotional and practical support, information and educational resources following a diagnosis.

Thanks to people like our Geelong fund-raisers, hundreds of regional families will be provided free home-away-from-home accommodation near their treating centre.

With Geelong’s help we’re lighting the way forward.

Australia Day in the Geelong Indy.

I spoke about the day with local Aboriginal community member Corrina Eccles, a Wadawurrung traditional woman. She said: “Australia Day should definitely be moved from 26 January, as it’s a day which is painful for Aboriginal people.

“I believe it should be on 27 May, when Aboriginal people received citizenship in the 1967 referendum.

“New citizens could then be welcomed on this day about citizenship, creating a diverse community and celebrating all cultures.”

I did receive Ms Eccles’ agreement that I could use her name and opinion in this letter.

We look forward to the new Geelong Council addressing this issue with the community.

Conversely, he must agree with me why this is so: that without CO2’s greenhouse gas properties Earth’s average temperature would be about -18C. Therefore, the pre-industrial CO2 level of 280 parts per million was enough to raise the average temperature from -18C to 16C, a change of about 34C. But now, according to Mr Saclier, it stops there.

Why? Because the temperature response is logarithmic.

So temperature rise will magically stop even as we head to double the CO2 concentration. If only all those poor physicists and climate scientists knew about logarithms.

Well, lots of things in nature vary on logarithmic scales. Hearing is logarithmic but, still, the louder a sound is the more it hurts.

I agree the temperature rise will not double because of this relationship, but it is on track for the predicted 3.5C rise later this century at existing emission rates.

All for nothing Since 2011 Australia has closed 10 coal-fired power stations. Only 24 are left, with most operating beyond their design life. No new plant is planned.

Coal still produces 70 per cent of Australia’s electricity. Wind plus solar is a mere seven per cent.

Since renewables have been promoted by successive governments electricity prices have doubled and gas tripled. Additionally, annual subsidies for renewables currently cost taxpayers $3 billion, or $300 per household.

Federal Labor wants 50 per cent renewables by 2030. Victoria wants 25 per cent renewables by 2020 - only two years away!

South Australia boasts it has occasionally reached 50 per cent but when the wind blew too hard last September 2,000,000 were left without power and industry lost millions of dollars.

A senate inquiry into chief scientist Dr Alan Finkel’s report asked him was what difference Australia would make to global temperatures if it closed completely. He replied “virtually nothing”.

Of global CO2 emissions, China contributes 29 per cent, the USA 16 per cent and India 6.5 per cent. Compared with these giants, Australia contributes a miniscule 1.3 per cent.

China is constructing 384 new coal-fired power plants, India 149 and Japan 45, often using our coal.

China’s annual CO2 emissions alone are rising more than Australia’s entire emissions.

We are told blackouts are likely this summer.

Our government’s solution is movie tickets if we turn off our air-conditioners!

We are being governed by fools advised by lunatics urged on by rent-seekers.

Beatlemania will hit home - hard

By Luke Voogt Few musicians will create the fanaticism which surrounded The Beatles, but tribute artist Chris Frazer has had a small taste.

Frazer spoke to the Indy fresh off performing to more than10,000 fans with The Beatle Boys at Sydney’s Domain on Sunday.

“Everyone was up singing and dancing - it was amazing,” the band’s ‘John Lennon’ said.

“We’ve got generations passing down their love and admiration from The Beatles’ prolific periods.”

Frazer’s obsession with The Beatles began singing Octopus’s Garden at pre-school in the Hunter Valley in the 70s.

“They’ve always been there,” the 41-year-old said.

Frazer began acting onstage at age 11 and first picked up the guitar at 18.

“I was looking for an outlet to express myself and the poetry I was writing,” he said.

He combined those skills 10 years ago to play Lennon, before joining The Beatle Boys three years later and experiencing his own form of Beatlemania.

“I would always obsess about standing in The Beatles’ shoes and doing what they did,” he said.

“I had an opportunity, and I wholeheartedly threw myself into that experience.”

The boys do more than sing the songs - they mimic the lads from Liverpool down to their accents.

“It’s a total experience for me,” Frazer said.

“We’re all very much similar to the Beatles that we portray.

“It’s often the case after a show when we meet with our audience that people will come up to me and ask from where I’m from.”

“It’s funny because our Paul McCartney is actually from Liverpool - but Liverpool in western Sydney.”

TWIST AND SHOUT: The Beatle Boys in action.

That man, John Kater, has played the role in various bands for more than 20 years, including seven with The Beatle Boys.

“Originally, I wanted to play John, but I’m lefthanded and no one would let me in,” the 46-yearold said.

Like Frazer, Kater’s obsession with the Beatles

at n o s ’ t Wha

began at a young age. At four, he could name all of the band members and sing all of their songs.

His “pretend life” would see him play across continents, for the Sultan of Brunei and on national television.

But he still enjoyed going to Geelong each year

to play in its “intimate” theatre.

“Last time we played there, we loved that little theatre and we hope everyone can come rock out with us,” he said.

The Beatle Boys play their show The Rock N Roll Years at Geelong Performing Arts Centre on 28 October.

Hope on stage it’s like no other

By Luke Voogt The Hope Song is a play like no other, according to Grovedale actor Simon Finch.

The father-of-two plays Dave, a 36-year-old gay Indigenous man struggling with anxiety and depression, in the raw Surf Coast play.

The Hope Song is “verbatim play” based on Surf Coast writer Janet Brown’s interviews of seven people dealing with mental illness.

“The work she does is unlike any in Geelong or the Surf Coast,” Finch, 41, said. “You’re not trying to put on a character.“ The cast had never met the interviewees or seen photos of them before learning the scripts, which were verbatim copies of the interviews.

“You’ve memorised these lines to the punctuation and you’re telling them to the audience,” Finch said.

Reading Dave’s interview presented a unique acting challenge for Finch. The only window he had into his character was the interview.

The unemployed Dave had a great support network and partner, but was in the middle of a battle with depression, Finch said.

“The reason I do acting is so I can take a break from being me and inhabit a different person’s life.

“But saying (the lines) with the emotions pulled back a little has more potency than trying to overdramatise it.”

Finch met Dave (not his real name) during a showing of the play and admitted being worried about portraying him negatively or over-acting.

“The walk up to shake his hand was absolutely terrifying, but he seemed quite happy with what we did.”

The play was Brown’s first foray into verbatim theatre after decades of writing.

“I’ve been interviewing people for other writing projects for many years, and have always found it very interesting and humbling when people share their life experiences with me,” she said.

She hoped the words of her interviewees could give an insight into mental illness.

“They have been so insightful, frank and very generous by agreeing to share their stories,” she said.

Each interviewee nominated a song which uplifted them, which Brown incorporated into the play.

“I know that music - actually, the arts in general - and mental health have a beneficial nexus,” she said.

“Though the topic is quite serious, it (is) a very entertaining show.’

Lorne’s Iris Walshe-Howling directs the play following previous collaborations with Brown.

“I do love her innovative theatre work, which is so highly respected,” Brown said.

“I thought Iris’ sensitivity and her creative vision would align well with my concept for the project.

“Now it’s time for me to step back and let Iris and her talented team bring this project to the stage.”

Anglesea Performing Arts performs the Hope Song for its final shows on Friday night and Saturday at Anglesea Memorial Hall.

Spring cycle to recycle your health Spring is now in full flight and what better way to get out of the house, do something active and be a little social than going for a bike ride.

Riding a bike provides all these benefits and quite often leads to stopping in a coffee shop to enjoy a brew with a few old or new friends.

Geelong is a great place to ride as well with its plethora of safe riding paths in beautifully scenic locations - whether along Corio Bay or down by the Barwon, there is something for everyone.

Life Cycle 55+ offers this opportunity right in the heart of Geelong.

“Life Cycle 55+ Explore is a great program that allows me to take out people over 55 onto the bike paths and trails around Geelong and, of course, to some fantastic local cafes,” said Chelsea Fisher, Geelong’s Life Cycle 55+ Ride Leader.

“The program is about getting out onto your bike in a welcoming and friendly environment where it doesn’t matter your level of ability just that you are out on the bike and enjoying yourself.”

Chelsea leads a ride that starts at 10am every Friday from outside the Little Creatures Brewery in Swanston Street, South Geelong.

For more information on the program visit www.lifecycle55.com.au or call Chelsea on 0434 222 514.

Call up some friends for a ride.

Life Cycle 55+: Explore Geelong Life Cycle 55+ Explore is a program for older adults. It is all about social riding with like-minded individuals on a regular weekly ride. If you are looking for a fun and a social way to stay active whilst riding your bike, with the support of a qualified riding leader, this is the perfect way to begin!

ADVERTISING IN THE INDY SENIORS REALLY WORKS

Pains in the feet

I advertised my orange peel powder supplement only in the Indy and a Deakin professor phoned me about researching it – he saw the ad.

My powder also sold out at Diversitat Wholefood in just days.

If it wasn’t for the Indy the opportunities that have opened up for me would never have happened.

12334681-DJ49-16

Advertising in the Geelong Indy’s been amazing.

Feet are at the far end of bodies and often at the bottom of priorities.

But whilst most of the time people don’t give their feet a second thought, when something goes wrong with them it can be debilitating.

Feet are vital for mobility and balance and are the basis of most physical activity, so it’s no wonder problems and pain are common.

What many people aren’t aware of is that feet can affect and cause problems in the rest of the body including ankles, knees, hips, backs and necks.

Bad foot posture can continually pull bodies out of alignment so any foot or leg pain should not be ignored.

Problems left untreated almost always get worse but there is often a simple solution.

A sports podiatrist who has expertise in musculoskeletal issues and biomechanics is the best person to help with any foot and leg pain or discomfort.

Dr David Kavanagh, musculoskeletal podiatrist from Foot and Leg Pain Clinics, one of Australia’s leading foot and leg pain practices, said: “People often endure painful foot, heel and ankle conditions for far too long.

“They either don’t know who to turn to in order to get appropriate help or they assume nothing can be done, but most conditions are extremely treatable.

“Even patients who have been told that there is no solution or that surgery is their only option, we are now able to treat with great success.

“Recent medical advances are enabling us to treat most foot and leg problems quickly, easily, effectively and naturally.”

Bad foot posture can continually pull bodies out of alignment.

Dr Kavanagh said: “If you’re seeking assistance for any foot and leg pain, ensure you see a practitioner with expertise in musculoskeletal concerns and one who keeps up to date with the latest medical research and treatments.

“It’s also important to see a practitioner who takes a holistic approach, looking at the whole body as well as lifestyle factors that may be contributing to your concerns.

“Most foot pain, injury and degenerative conditions, including arthritis, can now be effectively treated.

“You just need a correct diagnosis, expert treatment and advice, including the use of the latest regenerative therapies such as prolotherapy and PRP and a sound knowledge of biomechanics and the musculoskeletal system.”

For anyone who is suffering from foot or leg discomfort, bunions, heel pain, arthritis, injuries or adolescent growing pains, Foot and Leg Pain Clinics in Belmont can assist.

Relaxed lifestyle As buyers flock to the Greater Geelong region for a lifestyle change with all the amenities, many seniors are looking to downsize their family home and capitalise on the growing market demand.

Over the past 12 months, the region of Greater Geelong has seen medium house prices increase by 13.1 per cent which is not too dissimilar to Melbourne’s price increase at 13.9 per cent in the same period to September 2017.

As prices continue to increase, Victorian seniors in the region are turning to the emerging suburb of Lara to downsize and reap the financial rewards of the land lease ownership model.

Nestled at the gateway to Geelong, and with links to the M1 for the Bellarine Peninsula, the Surf Coast and Melbourne, Lara is becoming a highly sought after location for those looking for a change in lifestyle.

In a bid to cater to the growing demand from seniors looking to downsize and capitalise on the regions popularity, Ingenia Lifestyle Lara has released the community’s fourth stage of homes.

Regional Sales Manager Zoe Ilich-Paul said 2017 had been a bumper year so far for the community with 10 new homes in stage four selling in just weeks.

“The community’s popularity among downsizers, from both the local region and those seeking a tree change is on the rise, with our community welcoming many new residents this year alone,” Ms Ilich-Paul said.

To celebrate the launch of the new release of homes, Ingenia Lifestyle Lara is hosting a springthemed open day for seniors on Saturday 21 October from 10am to 2pm.

Guests will be able to come in and explore the increasingly popular lifestyle-focussed land lease community where affordability and convenience are combined.

“Our community provides the perfect alter-

Seniors are looking to the benefits of lend lease home ownership. native to traditional city living for prospective homebuyers, particularly with the launch of our new homes,” Ms Ilich-Paul said.

“Our range of homes provides buyers with the option of selecting their new home based on their individual needs, whether it be for singles, couples or those who require a little extra space after downsizing,” Ms Ilich-Paul said.

“Locals will see first-hand the benefits of downsizing into a land lease community specifically tailored to meet the needs of active seniors where they lease the land and secure ownership of a brand new home.

“Ingenia Lifestyle Lara’s open day provides the opportune time to tour the community, view the range of display homes and mingle with residents.”

Residents, family and local community members are invited to Ingenia Lifestyle Lara’s Spring Open Day on Saturday 21 October from 10am2pm at Ingenia Lifestyle Lara, 40 Watt Street, Lara.

Leopold’s Craig ‘Watto’ Watson is bringing the thunder on his drive down under as he takes on his eighth Camp Quality esCarpade.

Watto is driving his Thuderbird-themed Mini to Port Macquarie on Friday before he takes off from there on Sunday.

“Camp Quality has a soft spot in my heart,” the 55-year-old says.

“There couldn’t be anything worse than being told your child’s got cancer.

“For an organisation like Camp Quality to give kids a bit of respite - it’s a great cause.”

The esCarpade is more than just a charity drive - the teams will meet with Camp Quality families and stop for fun and games.

“It’s about putting smiles on kids’ faces,” Watto says.

Watto returned to the esCarpade after a 20year break in 2016 and met fellow veteran Graeme McMahon, who has driven nine times in the event.

The owner of Barwon Tyre and Auto Centre and his ‘Fun Patrol’ will drive from Port Macquarie to Toowoomba in their police-themed car.

“We saw it advertised nine years ago and thought we give go,” the 57-year-old says.

“We saw the fantastic work that Camp Quality does.”

Graeme is also driving to Port Macquarie on Friday after leaving on Thursday, a day after Watto, to give him a “head start”.

“He’s got a mini so he’s a lot slower,” Graeme says.

Graeme and Watto and their co-drivers have raised more than $13,000 for Camp Quality.

Improving a car’s power by up to 30 per cent while actually improving fuel economy sounds like a big ask for a Land Rover, BMW, Mini or Jaguar or other European marques.

Not so, says Hunter Cuthill director Adam Hunter.

It’s readily achievable by using top-line Autologic technology, he advises, adding that it’s also a sound way of ensuring efficiency performance in a more-sustainable fashion.

Hunter Cuthill, in Geelong West’s Autumn St, specialises in quality independent servicing and repairs to all BMWs, Land Rover, Mini and Jaguars - as per factory schedules and directives and with full book service.

The business also services car makes including Peugeot, Renault and Citroen.

It is the only service centre in Geelong outside of direct dealers with the software and diagnostic equipment for these brands.

“We utilise state of the art diagnostic equipment from Autologic, the world’s leading independent vehicle diagnostic software,” Adam says.

“It’s the only independent tool that can program control units. Autologic also offer software power upgrades for diesel and some petrol engines, giving 30 per cent more power while improving fuel economy.”

Hunter Cuthill is also right across the best battery choices to meet the energy demands of European cars.

VARTA batteries, powered by AGM technology, feature advanced equipment such as start-stop technologies and regenerative braking systems.

“This is a battery that delivers optimal performance, faster conductivity and reliable starting power, even when the charge is low,” Adam says.

“AGM batteries deliver up to eight times the cyclic stability of conventional flooded batteries resulting in a longer battery life.”

Catching ’em young ing out some of our sports,” Marija says.

The organisation runs sports ranging from basketball, judo and trampolining to ninja gym and gymnastics at its Newton, North Geelong and Bannockburn centres.

Its young qualified instructors connect well with the kids, Marija says.

“We’re quite proud of the fact that we employ a lot young people.”

One of those instructors is Toby Ford, 25, who has introduced new sports to Bannockburn kids for the past five years.

“When you watch them develop those, it’s quite rewarding,” he says.

But more than anything, the program is about running around, having a good time and making new mates, he says.

“They love it. We focus on enjoyment before development.”

The YMCA is launching Rookie Sports at North Geelong following the success of the program at its Newtown and Bannockburn centres.

The program is open to kindergarten-aged children at the Geelong Arena for term 4, says YMCA’s Marija Privitelli.

“The littlelies come in and do different ball sports each week,” she says. “It’s all about developing motor skills and hand-eye co-ordination in a fun environment.

“We just want to let the community know there’s something for everyone - it doesn’t matter where you’re from in Geelong.”

And Children’s Week is the perfect time to launch the program, Marija says.

The YMCA will join festivities at Geelong’s Big Play Day at the Botanical Gardens on 24 October, hosting sports for the city’s youngsters.

“We’re looking forward to getting the kids try-

(NEVER KNOWN TO FAIL) Oh most beautiful ower of Mt Carmel, fruit vine splendorous of heaven. Mother of the Son of God. IMMACULATE VIRGIN assist me in this my necessity. Oh STAR OF THE SEA help me and show me herein you are my mother. OH HOLY MARY MOTHER OF GOD, queen of heaven and earth, I humbly beseech you from the bottom of my heart to succour me in my necessity. There are none that can withstand your power.

Oh show me here that you are my recourse to thee. (3 times) Holy Mary I place this cause in your hands. (3 times) Thank you for your mercy towards me and mine. Amen.

This prayer must be said for three days and after that request will be granted and the prayer must be published.

SPORT Cats must win this one LOCAL CRICKET Jim Timberlake Despite another strong showing, the Geelong Cricket Club is yet to gain any points in a season that could quickly slip away if they can’t get themselves on the winners list soon.

Batting first at home against Frankston Penninsula last Saturday, the top order got off to a bright start reaching 2/122 midway through their innings.

Skipper Eamonn Vines (79) top-scored, while gun recruit Tim Ludeman (27) lent good support in a handy 60-run stand.

Tom Treble (52*) ensured the Cats posted a competitive total of 6/231 from their 50 overs.

In reply, Geelong once again opted to open with the off spin of Luke Muller, and although he bowled tightly, the side failed to take early wickets.

Billy Hyde claimed 2/51 through the middle overs, but the strong Frankston Penninsula lineup cruised to a seven-wicket win with two overs to spare.

With another One Day game scheduled for tomorrow at Carlton, Geelong simply must win or they risk their season being over before it’s really begun.

In the Geelong Cricket Association, two undefeated sides in Geelong City and East Belmont clash tomorrow in the first two-day round of the season.

Both sides will feel they have been thereabouts in recent seasons, but have failed to come away with any silverware, meaning they will want to win here to send a message out that they intend to be there at the business end.

East Belmont look in ominous form, after Sean O’Neill (121) and Andrew Baars (91) put St Joseph’s to the sword early last week in a powerful 238-run first wicket partnership. Their total of 9/336 proved to be too much for St Joseph’s, only managing 256 in reply.

Geelong City’s batting also proved to be their strength, chasing down Leopold’s 182 with complete ease, thanks again to openers Richie Oliver (35) and Stephen Anastasiu (66).

With both sides in good early season batting form, it could be the bowlers that decide this game. East Belmont looks to have a bit more fire power, with Englishman Alex Willerton proving to be the perfect partner to David Lineen, the big quick already has two bags of three wickets.

The Sharks, on the other hand, look like they are struggling to fill the void left by Kent Agg who retired at the end of last season.. Unless one of

their lesser lights can have a huge game here, East Belmont should be too strong.

MURGHEBOLUC v Leopold, South Barwon v GROVEDALE, NEWTOWN and CHILWELL v Lara, NORTH GEELONG v St Joseph’s, EAST BELMONT v Geelong City In division two, Marshall has started the season in great form, knocking off both of last season’s grand finalists already. The Bears have had a young side for a couple of years now, but with the likes of the Dubbledam brothers Jake and Kal really starting to mature as cricketers, the future looks bright. If they can defeat Manifold Heights this round, they will rightly be considered one of the main contenders.

ST PETERS v Torquay, Newcomb and District v HIGHTON, BELL POST HILL v Bell Park, Manifold Heights v MARSHALL And in division three, Alexander Thomson look like one of the teams to beat after winning their first two games in good fashion.

They play Waurn Ponds - Deakin this week, who have lost both of their games, and a win will consolidate their place in the top four.

OUT AND ABOUT: North Geelong Warriors leaders catch up with the Elcho Park Cardinals.

Training key to success on Warriors’ regional road trip

By Josip Zilic Connecting with each other is the theme to North Geelong Warriors recent road trip around the region.

The under-12s boys NPL squad took to staging a series of matches and training sessions with various clubs all over the Greater Geelong Region.

Visiting Geelong SC, Geelong Rangers, Elcho Park Cardinals, Barwon SC and Barwon Heads, the North Geelong under- 12s put themselves to the test as they commence to transition from under-12 9v9 format in the NPL structure to full field football for the 2005 born players in 2018.

Besides the learning and adjusting to different demands of a full size pitch, the greatest asset they all picked up over the duration of the experience was creating connections with their friends in

community football, which for some was a visit back to their original clubs.

This year’s North Geelong NPL under-12s represent the region from eight (Barwon SC, Geelong, Geelong Rangers, Kardinia International, Surf Coast, Elcho Park Cardinals, Werribee and North Geelong itself) different community-based clubs in the state-wide competition. It was the first year that the under-12 format took on the 9v9 format, and it was a terrific success.

The format provides coaches and technical assessors the opportunity to identify future talent for representative squads such as the FFV’s Talent ID Centre where 17 members of the 23-member squad were invited to be a part of the Federation’s program including one member of the under-12 team being selected to join the Vic Country Rep team of under-13 and 14 travelling to Japan on a

lifetime experience.

North Geelong had a further 11 members from their under-13s and 14 program selected for that same tour.

With NPL Trials underway, the result of the connections North Geelong is making with its community is a direct result of open communication and collaboration with record numbers attending trials, most significant is the under-12 group with 50 players trialling from 13 different community clubs.

“What we need now is those (all tiers of government and business) willing to act upon and endorse the progress of facilities and infrastructure to keep us (clubs) all engaged and supporting our members of the community to remain involved in a healthy and active lifestyle,” a Football Operations spokesperson said.

Fish bag ready for the taking ON THE BITE Chris Pitman Last week’s great weather spoiled anglers for choice, with a wide range of species caught.

Corio Bay presented little trouble for anglers seeking pinkie snapper around structures. The spoil grounds also fished well, too, around tide changes, with the odd pike to 80cm thrown into the mix.

Clifton Springs fired on all cylinders, with gentleman’s hours reportedly very productive on the snapper. The Point Richards channel from the bend through to the Alcoa area produced fish to more than 7kg on pilchard and silver whiting, especially around tide changes.

I ventured out to the spoil grounds out from Leopold with soft plastics on Saturday for a catch of pinkies.

Other anglers fishing from Clifton Springs also took excellent numbers of King George whiting on pippies along the Curlewis Bank.

Daniel Sparks fished the outer harbour early Sunday, catching some well-conditioned snapper on silver whiting.

Portarlington again allowed anglers to bank reasonable numbers of pinkie snapper from the new harbour. Squid and whiting were also taken.

The area out front of Swan Bay produced some bag-limit captures of whiting.

The stronger tides returned the best results.

Monster squid kept entertained anglers drifting in the Queenscliff Bight. Fishing deep with large jigs was the key.

Peri and Michael Stavropoulos took a run out from St Leonards over to Mornington in search of snapper on Sunday afternoon. The drive paid off, with Peri boating a fish just over 6kg.

Local surf beaches fished well on incoming tides for Australian salmon to 2kg.

Bait or lure worked well, with Bancoora Beach and the rock platforms either side of Lorne fishing best.

Portland hosted another run of southern bluefin tuna to over 100kg. Trolling skirted lures around bird activity caught fish, with some anglers reporting double hook-ups on huge tuna.

Freshwater anglers continued enjoying productive fishing in the region’s west.

Lakes Bolac and Toolirook along with Deep Lake gave up brown and rainbow trout on trolled Tassie Devils.

Wurdee Boluc Reservoir produced a few redfin on soft plastics cast lengthy distances.

The Barwon River fished well for carp from Breakwater to Queen’s Park. The mud marlin devoured corn fished on light running sinker rigs.

Next week the snapper off Clifton Springs should be hard to pass up, while some massive gummy sharks could be an option in 30m offshore. Freshwater anglers could fish the Barwon River for redfin with small hard-body lures.

And don’t forget this Friday night’s Trelly’s Tackle Spectacular with a huge lineup of guest speakers and discounts at Geelong Marine World, 401-409 Portarlignton Road, Moolap.

BIG TIME: Daniel Sparks with a pair of large snapper.
