Theft’s hard twist By Brendan Rees

Courtney Hill and Clay Tharle are offering a $500 cash reward to anyone with information leading to the whereabouts of their lemonade trailer. Picture: CONTRIBUTED

Devastated couple Courtney Hill and Clay Tharle were ready to hook up their lemonade trailer to their car and start their first food truck carnival this week - only to discover it was allegedly stolen. 176773 Picture: GARY SISSONS

A young couple’s dreams for a small lemonade business could be over thanks to heartless thieves who allegedly stole their beloved custom-built trailer. Courtney Hill and Clay Tharle, both 23, say it was a “kick in the guts” when they discovered their trailer had been taken from a factory carpark in Deblin Drive, Narre Warren, during the early hours of Friday 12 January. “It was at my dad’s factory - right at the back, it had a tow ball lock on it, so it was locked up and normally the gate’s shut but the girl that left last didn’t shut the gate,” Mr Tharle said. “They’ve obviously cut the lock off somehow,” he said, adding the trailer was not insured. He said a nearby business had CCTV footage but was waiting on the owner to return from holidays. It has only been a year since the couple took a risk in starting their own small business, Lemon-Aid, selling lemonade at food truck carnivals - which was now in jeopardy. Ms Hill said they used the trailer during summer with their first food truck carnival planned for this week at Point Cook. “We also had bookings all the way through to March and now that seems like it may be an out of reach possibility because of a thief who probably doesn’t know the meaning of hard work.” “We are devastated and heartbroken as someone has not just stolen an object from us but they have stolen our business in which we have worked so hard to get.” Ms Hill said the trailer may only be a worth about $200 to the thief but added “to us its worth so much more than that”. She said they both worked hard with extra jobs and always did their best to save after recently purchasing a block of land to get ahead in life. “It’s almost made all of our dreams seem impossible and out of reach.” “We did up an old trailer and made it our own mini version of a food truck. Now someone has taken that from us.”

Bitter end for beloved pet By Brendan Rees A 70-year-old woman has been left devastated after her Jack Russell died after ingesting what was believed to be rat poison. His owner, Bev Shepard, of Hampton Park said there was no rat bait kept on her Highland Avenue property and warned others to be careful. Ms Shepard said she knew something was wrong with Lucky, 13, at about 7am on Sunday 10 December. “He was just nearly out to it. He wasn’t going to do anything. You could see he was struggling.” Lucky was taken to the Animal Emergency Centre (AEC) in Hallam but his condition deteriorated. “By the time we got him there he was critical; we couldn’t do a great deal for him,” she said. “He still had the bit of blue on his lip and that’s when they confirmed it that it was the bait.” The Vet told Ms Shepard they could operate but there was no guarantee Lucky would survive. “I said “it’s best that we put him to sleep.’” Ms Shepard said she suspected someone may have thrown bait into her backyard. “I know people next door who have got a little girl; they had had a couple of baits thrown over their fence at their dog, a German Shepherd.” “Whether it was meant to hit their dog or not I don’t know.” She said it was hard to describe losing her closest friend. “Even now, we look around and hear a noise, expecting to see him and he’s not here. He was a pretty well-loved dog.” “I would hate to see this happen to other owners and, especially those families with very young children, who may even pick these

Ms Shepard’s neighbour, Xue Wang said she sometimes heard noises coming from her backyard but believed it may have been a possum at night. “I’m not sure if it’s poison or not but I just suspect it, just worry,” she said, after receiving an anonymous letter in her mail box saying her dog was noisy.

City of Casey council say they are not aware of the incident or anything similar happening in the past. Under Victorian law, if someone is caught deliberately poisoning animals, they could be charged with animal cruelty - facing a maximum jail term of 12 months or a fine of up to $39,000. AEC Hallam Veterinary Director Dr Natalie

Rulton said there were many cases when owners suspected their pets had been baited by a malicious person but often pets had found something toxic on their property. RSPCA Victoria Head of Prevention, Sophie Buchanan said it was essential people contacted their local Vet as soon as possible if they suspected their pet had eaten a bait or poison even if their animal were not exhibiting any adverse symptoms. “It’s important to supervise your pet when you’re walking outdoors to minimise the risk they will eat something harmful that they may come across.” “Indoors, pet-proofing your house can also reduce the likelihood your animal will accidentally ingest a dangerous substance,” she said. Anyone who has concerns for the welfare of an animal is encouraged to contact RSPCA Victoria on 9224 2222 or at rspcavic.org.

Building resilience in others as Catherine vies for crown By Brendan Rees Cranbourne North's Miss Australia International's national finalist, Catherine Ayad, is on a mission to empower women experiencing adversity. The 23 year-old started volunteering as a personal dressing consultant with Fitted for Work three years ago, which helps disadvantage women build their self-confidence and get ready for the workforce. "I was working in retail at the time and I fell in love with helping women feel good about themselves through the outfits I chose for them," she said. So I was encouraged to start volunteering and help women." "At the end of the day it's how you feel in your clothes because how you feel is then going to reflect to the outside world." Catherine, who has also been nominated for the Victorian Young Achiever Awards, says her life was "flipped 180" in 2014 after experiencing

a devastating break up with her partner. "The more I started volunteering and hearing these ladies personal stories it made me realise I get can get through a heart break and put my life into perspective." Catherine has since created her own small business, by building her website, www.catherineayad.com.au after successfully receiving $6000 government grant, adding she's on the "way to the top" "My business tagline is driven by confidence and its being comfortable in your own individuality and fully embracing that, not shying away." She says she came across the application for the Miss Australia international beauty pageant by chance on Facebook and decided to apply. "It has been a dream come true and I live to inspire others to chase their dreams no matter what." The Miss Australia International Crowning Ceremony will be held in NSW on Thursday, 22 February this year.

Fuel fail is a wheel mess By Brendan Rees A 19 year-old motorist has told of how her visit to a United service station in Cranbourne South destroyed her car's fuel system - leaving her a repair bill she couldn't afford. Racqueal Kosakiewicz says she filled up her Holden Astra with a full tank of unleaded petrol at United Petroleum on Cameron Street on Wednesday 27 December. But after breaking down later in the day, the tank was believed to have contained diesel fuel. She says she heard a "crackling" sound and weird noises as she was driving. "It was getting worse as I got home. My dad turned it on and he said it was stalling and smoke was coming out of it." Ms Kosakiewicz, of Cranbourne East, said her brother-in-law; a mechanic checked the car thinking the timing chain needed replacing. "I almost bought the part and he looked at it again and he said 'It smells like diesel.' I said 'I'm not stupid enough to put diesel in my car.' I said 'I've got the receipt'." She said she topped up her car with premium fuel to try to flush out the diesel but adds "It shakes and dies because there's still diesel through the motor." "It's running really rough and you can't keep it on." She said she called United and was advised to fill out a complaint form. But United didn't return her phone calls for two weeks, she said, whilst her car was parked broken-down on her front lawn.

"It's ongoing, nothing's been done and I do need to have a car. At the moment I've paid almost $400." She said her boyfriend's car was also affected at the same service station: "His was only $15 (of petrol). It's still playing up a bit whereas as mine was a whole full tank." Mechanics told her they wouldn't carry out any repair works until they confirmed they would be paid by United. "If it was cheap I would just pay it but it's going to cost me so much money I don't have." Ms Kosakiewicz finally received a call from United on the 10 January advising her to provide a quote from a mechanic. "I explained I haven't sent it out to you because I don't know what I'm paying for. No one has told me." "He said 'you can pay for it and be reimbursed or you can wait for the money to come and then pay for it.'" United Petroleum CEO David Szymczak apologised to any consumers affected, saying there was an unforeseen equipment failure whereby a mixture of petrol and diesel was dispensed from fuel bowsers at the Cranbourne South service station. "That equipment failure has been since rectified and is resolved. "We're working with consumers that have been affected and paying out all claims," he said.

Having recently had several dealings with the City of Casey and then reading the recent issue of your paper (11 January) highlighted to me the problem that is the Council and the way it goes about its business. After failing compulsory acquisition they offered Mr Foy a hot water service as compensation for the bully boy tactics of the council. And congratulations to Mr Foy for refusing the payoff and to Star News for highlighting the situation. I wish the council had people of the moral calibre of Mr Foy. Compare his behaviour to that of the antics of Mr Beardon and Mr Aziz during the year. Maybe the Star could have a segment where people could publish comments on their dealings with the Council. It would make interesting reading. Some would even be funny ... Like the bylaws officer who arranged for our neighbour to build a ‘soundproof chook shed’ to stop our complaints about their noisy rooster. It was eventually pointed out to the council that its own bylaws forbid the keeping of a rooster in a built up area. If some of the council actions were made known to the wider community we may be able to take a step towards getting local government that was accountable and acting on behalf of its existing community/ ratepayers. Ratepayers would then be aware of what is happening in their Wards and the long term effect it will have on their residences and future lifestyles. Last comment! Has anyone ever tried to contact one of their councillors? If you have please tell me how it is done as emails to them do not work! Maybe the local council elections are a bit too far off for any public relations exercises. Dennis Nish, Cranbourne.

Firies called to smouldering pot plant An improperly discarded cigarette has caused part of a plastic pot plant to melt at the front of a residential house in Cranbourne. Firefighters were called to the address in Sladen Street at about 10.15am on Thursday 11 January where they found a cigarette butt smouldering in a pot plant near the driveway. “It was nothing like it initially came through. It was literally in a plastic pot plant. Overtime it got a bit hot and melted part of the pot plant,” said Cranbourne CFA Station Officer Eugur Ali. Mr Ali said the owner called triple-zero after becoming worried when they saw some smoke. It is believed a family member at the house smoked cigarettes.

How should I address you? When Deputy Casey Council Mayor Cr Amanda Stapledon stepped up as chairperson at the 19 December 2017 Casey Council meeting - there was various titles used among councillors in addressing Cr Stapledon whilst Mayor Geoff Ablett apologised for his absence for the evening. There was Deputy Chair, Chair, Madam Deputy Chair, and Madam Chair just to name a few. At one point Cr Sam Aziz said “I’ve run out of titles ... what should I call you now?” Cr Stapledon responded “Call me what you want. I don’t mind.” At the end of the meeting, Cr Stapledon said “Tonight I’ve heard about 10 variations of my title which I think is hilarious. I couldn’t stop giggling. Thank you for the wonderful extension of my title.” cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Truck ploughs into paddock By Brendan Rees A truck driver was lucky to escape serious injury after veering off the road and hitting a tree in Pearcedale on Friday 12 January. It is believed the 12 tonne tip truck was travelling east bound on the Baxter-Tooradin Road just after 9am before ploughing into a nearby paddock. Police and emergency services were called to the incident which occurred near the intersection of Western Port Highway. The driver, a 39-year-old Traralgon man was transported to Frankston hospital for observation after it’s believed he suffered an epileptic fit. Pearcedale CFA Second Lieutenant Chris Police inspect the vehicles involved in a head-on collision. 176566

Judd said it was lucky no one was hurt. “To walk out of something like that without a cut or a bruise is pretty good.” He said the man was conscious but appeared very confused and dazed. “He was talking a little bit when we first got there and after a while he came good,” he said. Mr Judd said the truck driver narrowly missed hitting a power pole as he veered across the road. “He knocked over a farming fence and ended up in the paddock. Luckily there were no on-coming cars.” Police will investigate to determine the cause of the crash.

Robots rule By Brendan Rees Students at Hillcrest Christian College in Clyde North know more than a just a thing or two when it comes to the nuts and bolts of building robots. Having spent up to 25 hours a week of designing and building robots, Hillcrest's team of four boys are off to America this year after taking out the VEX Robotics Australia National Championship on Saturday 9 December at Dandenong High School. The boys won the 'Excellence Award' and will now take on the world stage for the third consecutive year at the VEX Robotics World Championship at Kentucky, USA in April. Head of science and VEX mentor at Hillcrest Christian College, Simon Taylor, said he was proud of his students who achieved an amazing feat through their hard work and determination. "They felt that they had invested many hours into developing their robot and that winning was an acknowledgement of this hard work." In the competition, called the 'In the Zone,' each robot had to navigate through an area filled with cones on a 12 foot by 12 foot field, Mr Taylor explained. "There are yellow cones set up on the field that the robots have to pick up and stack onto goals." "One set of goals are higher and stationary and other set can be moved. Moving the goals into zones on the field which is into one corner, scores extra points." The Hillcrest boys' winning team, named 7479A was made up of students Tom Austin, Connah Trotman, Zac Peacock and Elliot Lam. They also won the tournament challenge and Robot Skills Challenge - making them the envious all round winners at the championship. Mr Taylor said a second team from the college, named 7479B consisting of Bradley

Graffiti promise broken: Aziz By Brendan Rees National champions from Hillcrest Christian College celebrate their win, from left, Bradley Johnson, Zac Peacock, Tom Austin, Connah Trotman, Elliot Lam, and Ross Shilliday. Picture: CONTRIBUTED. Johnson, Ross Shilliday, Tristan Cross, Kaiden Westendorp also competed in the national semi-finals. "Students spent their lunch breaks, recesses each day during the school year (building robots). They also had two after school build sessions for an hour and a half per week and a Wednesday afternoon during their private study," he said. "Leading up to competition they spent much of their spare periods and weekends building." He said the students' expertise from competing in the last two world championships had helped developed the school's STEM program (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics). "I am very proud of both teams. They have shown such dedication and determination." "It is such a great learning experience for the students."

Casey Councillors are united in urging VicRoads to clean up graffiti along the Monash Freeway with promises falling on deaf ears. Cr Sam Aziz said he was dismayed VicRoads had done “absolutely nothing,” despite faceto-face promises of cleaning up the freeway 18 months ago. “When you drive on the Monash today it’s like the Bronx in the 1970s. It’s a shame that we spend hundreds of millions of dollars upgrading this freeway and not paying attention to the aesthetics of it,” he said. “Where’s the comprehensive clean-up program that was going to start from Warrigal Road near Chadstone and go all the way down to Officer? They’ve promised us the world and delivered nothing,” he said. Cr Aziz said VicRoads agreed to spend $300,000 in not only cleaning up graffiti but setting up surveillance along the freeway to catch vandals. “None of that seems to have transpired and that was promised to us over 18 months ago.” “I just get frustrated by how long it takes for really simple things to happen.” Cr Aziz said he received more complaints about the graffiti problem on the Monash Free-

way than any almost any other vandalism issue in the City of Casey. “The thing we’ve learnt with graffiti is the more that you attend to it the less that it’s going to happen.” He said Casey Council had a 24-hour removal policy when graffiti was reported on Council owned property and believed that other government authorities should be equally vigilant. Casey Councillors voted during a council meeting on 19 December to send VicRoads a letter, asking for an update regarding the clean-up of the graffiti which they say remained in a “parlous state.” VicRoads Director Operations Metro South East Michael Barker said VicRoads shared the same frustrations as the City of Casey and residents regarding graffiti on public property. "We undertake regular inspections of our freeways to identify graffiti so we can remove it as quickly as possible, prioritising the removal of graffiti that is racist, offensive or a potential risk to road safety." He said VicRoads spends about $200,000 removing graffiti along the Monash Freeway each year. To report graffiti on Council infrastructure call 1800 VANDAL (826 325) or email caseycc@ casey.vic.gov.au

Centre to stand at heart of community By Brendan Rees Clyde North's growing Ramleigh Estate will receive a new major community centre thanks to a State Government announcement of a $1.2 million Growing Suburbs Fund (GSF). Member for Eastern Victoria Daniel Mulino said the grant will help deliver the Ramleigh Family and Community Centre which will be located in one of the most popular new residential areas. The project will deliver two maternal and child health consulting rooms with a storage and waiting area, a large multipurpose community room and outdoor yard, a community kitchen, three licensed kindergarten rooms, staff and public amenities, a staffed reception area and car parking spaces. The project also includes the supply of furniture, fittings and equipment that is accessible for all community members. Funding is part of the 2017-19 GSF round, which is supporting seven projects across the City of Casey through a total of $7.7 million. The GSF aims to improve the amenity, liveability and resilience of communities in Victoria's 10 interface councils on Melbourne's fringe. Mr Mulino said the community centre will be a great asset to young families moving into the estate. "The Ramleigh Estate will house thousands of new dwellings over the coming years so it's vital we meet the needs of this community." Minister for Local Government Marlene Kairouz said "We're getting on with delivering the facilities that a growing area like Clyde deserves."

City of Casey Mayor Cr Geoff Ablett thanked the State Government for their contribution and said Council looked forward to bringing the project to fruition. "Council welcomes these funding an-

nouncements and will continue to advocate to the State and Federal Governments to further invest in this region, particularly in transport infrastructure to get traffic moving so residents can enjoy the facilities and services we deliver."

Kindness is catching Casey Cardinia Libraries (CCL) has extended a heartfelt thank you to all who donated to the 2017 Forgiving Tree Appeal, which delivered more than $20,000 worth of gifts and non-perishable food items for people in need. The Forgiving Tree Appeal ran from 7 November until Christmas Eve and encouraged library members to donate food or gifts and get their fines waived. CCL made sure the donations were passed on to local charity partners, who included Cranbourne Information Support Service, Hampton Park Community House, WAYSS, Doveton Salvos, Transit Outreach Service and the 4Cs in Pakenham. CCL CEO Chris Buckingham said the generosity of library members was inspiring and library staff were delighted to be able to pay it forward by wiping the slate clean for members willing to give back to their community. "Christmas is a time when many households are under pressure to make ends meet. By waiving fines and encouraging people to visit our libraries, we bring people together and help build stronger and more connected communities." "During the Forgiving Tree Appeal, boxes full of food and gifts were distributed from our libraries, which helped to make Christmas just that little bit brighter for so many locals." Mr Buckingham said CCL was thrilled to be able to extend the spirit of giving into the new year by scrapping overdue fines across the library service as part of a 12 month trial. From January 1, people who are late returning goods will also have the opportunity to make a donation to the library which will be used to expand early literacy programs across the library service.

Thursday, 18 January, 2018

Stockland's Edgebrook community in Clyde has chalked up 300 sales since the project's first land release less than 12 months ago. Strong buyer interest at the $208 million masterplanned community has seen more than one third of Edgebrook already sold and new land releases fast-tracked to meet demand. Stockland Development Manager Sommer Thompson said the community's location and natural beauty had contributed to Edgebrook's popularity, with buyers pleased to find affordable land packages in such a welldesigned community. "We are delighted to reach our 300th sale after receiving such positive home buyer response to this exciting community," Ms Thompson said. "2017 marked a series of milestones here at Edgebrook, including the release of our new village of The Banks. This village comprises a wide range of lots including some of the largest to be offered at Edgebrook, with sizes ranging from 350 square metres to 714 square metres." Stockland's reputation and emphasis on quality enticed local real estate agent Rav Sharma to purchase a 604-square metre block in The Banks last month. "I think great communities should have a few key ingredients such as strategic planning and attention to small details, such as enhancing the quality of life," Mr Sharma said. "Edgebrook has all these ingredients because Stockland creates masterplanned, sustainable communities that have great durability. "I think there is also a great emphasis on nature at Edgebrook and that's what I like the most." Mr Sharma said planned parks, recreation facilities and access to amenities such as schools and public transport also ensured Edgebrook would be an excellent community for families. The Banks precinct is located in an elevated pocket off Pattersons Road and features 57 lots, including 12 premium home sites over-

Prices in the first land release at The Banks started from $299,000 for a 350-square metre lot. "It is a very exciting time to buy at Edgebrook," Ms Thompson said. "Construction of the community's first park is expected to start next year and be completed to coincide with the arrival of the first residents." Edgebrook is located about 55 kilometres from Melbourne's CBD and less than 3km from Stockland's award-winning masterplanned Selandra Rise project, which is now sold out. The 65-hectare community will eventually be home to more than 2,000 residents and has been designed to blend seamlessly with the natural environment. Homes at Edgebrook are required to meet special building guidelines that require high standards of architectural design and landscaping. Edgebrook residents will have easy access to ovals, parks, shops, schools and sporting facilities in the area, as well as the Princes Freeway and Cranbourne Train Station. Families will also have a choice of existing schools located within 8km of Edgebrook and there are more schools proposed for the area. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Two nabbed By Brendan Rees Police have arrested two men following an alleged armed robbery in Cranbourne North on Sunday 7 January. A 23-year-old Hampton Park man was arrested on Tuesday 9 January following an alleged armed robbery at a service station near the intersection of Elizabeth Street and the South Gippsland Highway in Cranbourne North about 1.20pm. A 23-year-old Dandenong North man was also arrested on Wednesday 10 January in relation to the armed robbery and an aggravated burglary at a business address on Princes Highway near Power Road in Doveton on Sunday 7 January at about 6.45am. He was charged with a number of offences including aggravated burglary, prohibited person possess firearm, theft of motor vehicle, commit indictable offence whilst on bail and armed robbery. The man was remanded to appear before Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 5 April. The Hampton Park man was released pending further enquiries. It comes as two armed thugs, perceived to be of African appearance, threatened a service station attendant with a machete and large rock in Narre Warren North on Friday 12 January. A spike in criminal activity by African-Australian youths has left residents fearful.Australasian Association of Convenience Stores CEO Jeff Rogut has publicly called for actions to not only protect small businesses but to save people’s lives. Mr Rogut will host a forum calling for taking tougher action against criminals who target businesses without fear or deterrents. Mr Rogut said people who work in the 24/7 convenience industry were feeling less and less safe in going to work.

“We are at the point where the only stance on crime left to take is a tough one. Small business demands it and so do members of the community,” Shadow Minister for Police Edward O’Donohue said genuine engagement with communities to discuss the gang crisis was important, but would not fix the immediate threat facing the community. “Daniel Andrews needs to recall Parliament and consider changes to fix our broken bail system, soft sentencing laws and ineffective anti-gang laws.” Member for Cranbourne Jude Perera said the State Government had taken significant action to strengthen the sentencing regime in Victoria. “The Casey community can be assured that Victoria Police is taking a zero tolerance approach to criminal activity and anti-social behaviours.” “In addition an African Community Taskforce has been established to assist police prevent these behaviours in the first place.” “The Labor Government will continue to give Victoria Police the resources and powers they need to crack down on these young thugs, including 31 new police officers, part of the recent allocation of 300 frontline officers,” Mr Perera said. He said this allocation was the first stage of rolling out 3,135 new police across the state. Anyone with information or who witnessed the armed robbery in Narre Warren North is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report to Crime Stoppers at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au

Onboard for mission of hope Narre Warren South grandmother Jennifer Marshall has arrived home after spending the last seven weeks volunteering on board the Africa Mercy, the world's largest civilian hospital ship. A bookkeeper by profession, Ms Marshall worked in the on board cafe and shop, providing the crew of more than 400 volunteers with well-deserved coffee breaks and essential items. Operated by the international medical charity Mercy Ships, the Africa Mercy arrived in Cameroon, Central Africa in August with plans to provide more than 3,000 free, lifechanging surgeries during its 10-month stay in port. Mercy Ships volunteers will also treat over 8,000 patients at a land-based dental clinic, and provide health care training to Cameroonian health care professionals. "I loved serving on the ship, meeting so many amazing like-minded people" Ms Marshall said. "It took me a little while to appreciate that making coffee for the crew is important, however, I am told that it is integral to their wellbeing." Ms Marshall wanted to do whatever she could to ease the suffering of the world's vulnerable people. "I appreciate how blessed I am in Australia and I wanted to give back in an area where I feel there is great need and few resources." "To be able to offer healing to those that would otherwise never have this opportunity is a wonderful thing indeed." In addition to her usual duties, Ms Marshal took time to visit the ship's hospital wards, where she spent time befriending an 18-yearold girl who had surgery on board to correct burn contractures on both feet. "I loved spending time with her; even though we didn't speak the same language we developed quite a lovely connection," she remembered.

Narre Warren South grandmother Jennifer Marshall says her time serving on the Africa Mercy was invaluable in helping those in need. Picture: CONTRIBUTED. Ms Marshall found the burns injuries particularly distressing, as they can so easily be prevented. "With the proper treatment at the time of the incident, these types of long term issues wouldn't exist." Even with hundreds of volunteers from all over the world on board, Mrs Marshall says there was still a great atmosphere of unity. "There is no competition or arrogance. The doctors are on the same salary as the cleaners, so to speak, and we were all there with the same goal and reason, that is to serve the beautiful people of Cameroon and to provide relief and hope where we can" After spending Christmas in Central Africa, Ms Marshall returned to Narre Warren South recently for belated festivities with her family and plans to return to Mercy Ships as soon as she can.

steadily increasing over time due to advancements in medical treatments, however many Australians lack of quality of life today,” Dr Islam said. “As a General Practitioner, I have worked many years in rural and urban areas and have come across many inspiring and sad stories. “The hardest thing about seeing these patients is knowing that a lot of these diseases could have easily been prevented through simple lifestyle alterations.” Dr Islam explained that some of the leading causes of death among Australians, including cancer, heart disease and uncontrolled diabe-

tes, are often linked to obesity. “Prostate cancer in men and cervical cancer in females is quite common. But a healthy lifestyle, maintaining healthy weight, doing regular exercise, not smoking and not drinking alcohol can reduce cancer risks significantly,” Dr Islam said. “Do not wait until it is too late.

Three-pronged attack on kidney stones While some smaller kidney stones may pass, South Eastern Urology Urologist Philip McCahy warned that others can be so large that they will not pass and require medical attention. “Up to 15 per cent of the population may develop these stones which can cause recurrent urine infections, and, if left untreated, kidney damage or failure,” Mr McCahy said. Mr McCahy stated that there are three main treatment options for those suffering from large kidney stones. The first is shockwave therapy, a process where external shock waves are focussed on the stone and break it up into small pieces. “We are lucky in the Casey-Cardinia region in that Casey Hospital offers a service unique to Australia with day case, no anaesthetic lithotripsy,” Mr McCahy added. The next treatment is Ureterorenoscopy, a procedure where a very small flexible telescope is passed through natural passages into the kidney where stones are vaporised with a laser.

Philip McCahy of South Eastern Urology can help assist people dealing with small and large kidney stones. “The urologists at Casey Hospital have the most powerful stone laser available which significantly reduces surgery time and enables better clearance,” Mr McCahy said.

Finally, the third treatment Mr McCahy uses is Percutaneous Nephrolithotomy, a process where a needle is passed into the kidney from outside and a special balloon stretches the tissues to allow passage of a special telescope into the kidney. “The stones can either be plucked out or broken up and removed,” Mr McCahy explained. “Casey Hospital has one of the largest experiences of these operations in the country and the leading surgeons have developed techniques that have reduced hospital stay significantly. “There are pros and cons to all these treatments and a combination of procedures may be required to guarantee stone clearance. Discussion with a urologist with expertise in stone surgery is essential.” South Eastern Urology was established by Philip McCahy to provide consultant delivered local anaesthetic vasectomy service for the south-eastern suburbs.

Hospital on the move Regular checks for skin cancer are essential.

Early detection is key transferred from Gibb Street at 8am, with the entire hospital expected to be relocated by mid-afternoon the same day. Once the last patient has arrived at 75 Kangan Drive, the Gibb Street hospital location will close while it undergoes a redevelopment of its own. A rehabilitation hospital, to be known as the St John of God Langmore Centre, will open in its place in 2019. For more information, visit www.sjog.org. au/berwickredevelopment or call the hospital on 8784 5000.

Alarmingly, two in three Australians will be diagnosed with skin cancer before the age of 70. Australia’s harsh climate and exposure to UV Rays over time can damage skin and lead to several types of skin cancers. Not all skin cancers are the same, however. Basal cell carcinomas, which are the most common type among people with pale skin, are tumours in the cells that produce the top layer of skin. These are typically located in areas of high exposure to sun. Less common, but a more dangerous form of skin cancer are Melanomas which most commonly appear on the face, back and lower legs.

On Thursday January 18, St John of God Berwick Hospital will open its doors to patients for the first time at its new location on Kangan Drive in Berwick. The date marks the end of a two-year construction process that has seen St John of God Berwick Hospital grow from an 82-bed facility to a multi-storey state-of-the art hospital which can now accommodate 202 patient beds. The hospital is also expanding its services also in order to meet the demand of the growing Casey-Cardinia communities and the Eastern Victoria region. Theatre capacity has doubled, growing from four theatres at Gibb Street to eight at Kangan Drive. A new Critical Care Unit will open which will house the area’s first intensive care unit and a cardiac/high dependency service, along with the region’s first catheter laboratory. Rehabilitation services will also open next month. “These services enable us to continue to provide a more comprehensive range of services to enable us to fulfil our commitment to serving the needs of our local communities,” CEO for St John of God Berwick Hospital Lisa Norman said. “It’s about continuing to expand our services and build on the legacy that was started some 100-plus years ago when the first health care facility was opened on our Gibb Street hospital site in Berwick back in 1910.” On January 18, the first patient will be

Fun is stolen By Brendan Rees A teenager has been left heartbroken after thieves allegedly stole his beloved KTM bike in Narre Warren South. Jackson Prvulj, 16, was given the $1600 bike as a birthday present two years ago but on Tuesday 9 December it was allegedly pinched outside Casey Central Shopping Centre. His mum, Sandra said Jackson was with his brother, Ricky and two friends where they had locked their bikes outside Coles at about 4.30pm when the thieves pounced. "They came out about 45 minutes later and three of the four bikes were gone." She said police arrived and scoured CCTV footage from Coles and identified three Sudanese youths believed to have been involved in the theft. A passer-by witnessed some youths leave Casey Central and dump a BMX at a nearby park before fleeing when police arrived, she said. "It just happened there was a gentleman and his wife that were walking from shops up to the park to go home and they yelled out to the kids when they dumped the two bikes and took off." "The police came and grabbed the bikes from the kids but they didn't match the description on the CCTV. They (youths) reckon they found the bikes dumped in the park," she said. "One of my son's bikes was returned and his mate's bike. Of course the expensive one is still missing unfortunately"

Jackson, left, is gutted after thieves pinched his bike at Casey Central Shopping Centre recently. His brother, Ricky, right, was fortunate to have his BMX returned which was also allegedly stolen. 176652 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS. Ms Prvulji posted a desperate plea on Facebook's Casey Crime Page for the return of the bike which is described as black and orange in colour with a Cranbourne Cycles sticker on it. "Keep a look out for my son's bike," she said in the post. "This happened to two of my son's and their mates who were very distressed by the whole incident." She said Jackson had been riding his bike everyday during the school holidays. "It's disgraceful. I don't care what nationality they are they have not right to help themselves to other people's belongings," Ms Prvulj said. "These poor kids were devastated."

Living in fear By Bonny Burrows Constitution Rise residents have had enough. They've had enough of the hoon behaviour, drug use, littering and sexual activity they say is occurring at the Berwick "make-out spot". The scenic street, which overlooks much of Berwick, is popular among the shire's youths, who use the road as a place to meet up with friends. Residents accept the street will attract traffic, but say they aren't fine with the "illegal" activity occurring almost daily by who they say are mostly young people on their P-plates. "Kids will be kids but it's gotten out of hand," Shan Addison, who lives on the street with partner Leigh Cook and their five teenage children, said. "The sex, the drugs, the loud music, the cars hooning and the rubbish; we're calling the police every second day. "It's just constant and it's constantly getting worse." According to the couple, more than 15 cars at a time can be parked on the bowl of the street day and night, for hours on end. It's been occurring since August last year, and for the most part, Ms Addison, her family and neighbours have been simply dealing with it, picking up the waste left behind and taking down the registrations of those engaging in suspicious activity. But the family said a car fire on 9 January was the last straw. Ms Addison and Mr Cook were having a coffee at a local cafe when they got a panicked call from daughter Stephanie - a car was alight in the vacant block two doors from their home.

Constitution Rise, Berwick has picturesque views and is a popular spot for visitors. Ms Addison was furious. "In the middle of the day, they had the guts to do it in the middle of the day when my children were home," Ms Addison said. "That was the end of it for us. Because if the fire brigade didn't come ... there's dry grass and with embers it potentially could have been a huge mess." Ms Addison said police were aware of the situation, but had said on numerous occasions they couldn't do anything. "They say they're not doing anything illegal and that's crap," Ms Addison said. "I know police are busy but why not drive up here and have a look?" In the meantime, Ms Addison is investigating the installation of security cameras in a bid to deter crime. "I shouldn't have to do this, but what choice do I have?" she said. "I don't know what to do anymore, the kids are scared." Ms Addison was due to meet with the City of Casey on Tuesday 16 January to discuss the situation. It is believed the council will write to the police asking for increased patrol in the area. Narre Warren police was contacted for comment.

DISCRIMINATION IN ADVERTISING IS UNLAWFUL

Full time with overtime. Must be: Hard working and reliable. Great working environment.

The Victorian Equal Opportunity Act 1995 makes it unlawful for an advertiser to show any intention to discriminate on the basis of sex, pregnancy, race, age, marital status, political or religious belief or physical features, disability, lawful sexual activity/sexual orientation, HIV/AIDS status or on the basis of being associated with a person with one of the above characteristics, unless covered by an exception under the Act. As Network Classifieds could be legally liable if an unlawful advertisement is printed, Network Classifieds will not accept advertisements that appear to break the law.

Nivin’s star on the rise By Nick Creely Cranbourne youngster Nivin Sathyajith not only possesses match winning talent with either bat or ball, but he’s already got a mature head on his shoulders. The 17-year-old all-rounder is taking everything in his stride with a refreshing amount of humility during the 2017/18 cricket season, with his name starting to become known in not only the DDCA, but the Victorian selectors. Nivin’s season has been a whirlwind, with junior and senior cricket at the Eagles, Under 17 representation with Northern Territory (NT) at the National Championships in late September, and finally captaining the Southern Pioneers in the recent Under 18 Male State Championships. “It’s been a huge year for me, breaking into the national comps and doing well there, and club cricket is going really well - I’ve got some Turf 1 fifties under my belt, and it’s been a huge improvement on the last couple of years,” he said. The all-rounder struck 189 runs at 31.5 for NT (with a highest score of 68) and took 9 wickets at 23.7, in a carnival that almost wasn’t after missing out on Victorian selection. “They pick a trial squad to select the Victorian team, and when they announced the team, I wasn’t in it - for a week, I was really shattered, and then I got the call from the Under 17 coach saying they wanted me to play for Northern Territory,” he explained. “It was the best news of my cricketing career - I felt like I made the most of my opportunities.” While he continues his development at Cranbourne in Turf 1 cricket - where he has already struck two half centuries this year - Nivin is still trying to work out the balance between

Cranbourne youngster Nivin Sathyajith is a mature young cricketer. bat and ball, looking at a famous South African as inspiration. “I like to do a bit of both (batting and bowling) - in Twenty20 cricket especially, it’s important to have both skills, but I’d consider myself a batting all-rounder at the moment, but I enjoy both facets,” he said. “In the long run, I would like to slot into the top order, and then bowling as well if needed, but batting is my strength.

“Ever since I was little, Jacques Kallis is the player I’ve probably looked up to, he’s the idol for what I want to do.” Leadership is also another aspect of the youngster’s game that continues to evolve, with his recent experience as captain of the Southern Pioneers a raging success despite some tough results. In the four games, Nivin struck 149 runs at 37.3, including a brilliant 84 opening the batting in the final game against Barwon.

“It was a good challenge and a great learning curve for me - I improved as a leader, and picked up a lot of little things along the way,” he said. “Being a captain as a bottom ager means I’ve got another year ahead of me, and I’ll try and take it a step further with the Southern Pioneers. “It’s a good competition - but when you’re playing Turf 1 cricket, you’ve got big men running at you, and the difference is that everyone’s kind of got the same frame as you.” But for now, it’s back to club cricket for the rest of the season with the Eagles, who are rebuilding from the ground up after the losses of premiership heroes Steven Spoljaric and Matthew Chasemore. “Most of the blokes have probably taken it as a blessing (Spoljaric and Chasemore leaving), rather than a negative - the club is heading down the right path, despite the stats,” he said. “There are a couple of kids coming through - Cranbourne’s producing some quality players, we’ve got some young blokes playing high grades. “The future at the club looks really, really good to me - this year has been a development year, but in years to come, we’ll be a powerhouse once again. “Our coach, Funky Miller, has done a wonderful job to get the club to where it is - I miss guys like Chasemore because I did get a lot of information from him, but he’s at Berwick now, and we’re doing just fine. “I’ve also thoroughly enjoyed playing under Lucas Ligt - he’s a pleasure to be around, and a great bloke for our club. “I want to do as much as I can for Cranbourne, and try and help them win games.”

Jakobsson dee-lighted to come home By Nick Creely Melbourne recruit and Cranbourne star Bianca Jakobsson hasn’t looked back since being traded from Carlton ahead of the second season of AFLW, which kicks off at the start of February. The 24-year-old joined the Demons - in a homecoming to Casey Fields - in exchange for pick 12 in the trade period. For Jakobsson, the move narrowed down to one important thing. “I had a meeting with the head coach, and the operations manager at the time, and it just seemed like an incredible environment - I just wanted to be a part of it,” she said. “Being a Carlton supporter growing up, it was a tough decision, but I saw the Melbourne Football Club as the perfect fit for me, and the culture just really stood out. “I really wanted to grow and develop my football, and I found Melbourne to be the perfect fit. “It’s been a smooth transition, and a bit daunting at the start coming into a new club, but I’ve absolutely loved it and I’m learning a lot. “I haven’t looked back since.” Jakobsson played seven games for the Blues in the inaugural AFLW season, but said that the excitement around the club is different ahead of round one, as they look to improve on their third placing in 2017. “It’s three weeks now until round one, so the excitement is certainly building, and we’re just doing a lot of match play now at training, so we’re really getting our bodies ready,” she said. “There’s a lot of excitement around the club, and obviously a lot of hype about us outside the club, so it’s all really exciting. “What’s really stood out for me is the culture- the club is so big on getting everyone better - the drive to get better is so prominent at the Dees, we simply can’t wait.” The dynamic playmaker is also set for a shift in roles at her new club, after being drafted as a key forward. “Since the State of Origin I’ve been playing defence - I’ve been able to read the play and use my strengths a bit more, so I’ve been train28 STAR NEWS

that every game has something on the line you can’t drop games, and a loss can feel like losing a grand final,” she said. “You just have to prepare the best you can, and not worry about any outside noise - we need to just put everything out on the track, and on game day, it all just has to click.” The Demons will host the GWS Giants at Casey Fields, Cranbourne in round one on 3 February, with virtually a full list, in front of Ja-

kobsson’s home crowd. “That affiliation with Casey, and being a Casey girl myself, makes it all the more exciting - to be able to play in front of family and friends is pretty exciting,” she said. “We are in really good shape - everyone’s doing great except for Kempy (Ainslie Kemp) who has done an ACL, which is really devastating. “All the girls are on track, so the list is in very healthy shape.” cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

You can’t keep a good man down. Kooweerup opener Chris O’Hara had time for a breather during Pictures ROB CAREW his fine knock of 74 against Merinda Park. 176658 the Seagulls and Lions clash in the WGCA Premier Division Match of the Day at Rutter Park on Sunday. A victory is crucial to both team’s premiership aspirations - a home final is possibly at stake - but the opportunity to raise awareness of the issues surrounding mental health give this contest extra special meaning. Both clubs have been impacted by the condition in recent years and Tooradin skipper Aaron Avery hopes the Beyond Blue clash will help fight the battle against mental health issues, including depression and anxiety. “We’re hoping to turn this into an annual event between the clubs to help raise awareness for an issue that is really having a huge impact on the community,” Avery said. “At Tooradin, we’ve had a couple of ex-players fall due to mental illness and Pakenham has been impacted as well. It’s out there and it affects everyone, so if we can raise awareness and make a difference to just one life it will all be worthwhile in the end.” Tooradin is extending an open invite to the day, with activities including a jumping castle, face painting, music, raffles along with plenty of food and drinks to enjoy while watching the cricket. The day will also include silent auction items including memorabilia, Medallion Club passes, a family Luna Park pass, Rebel Sports vouchers, cricket gear and much more. And on-field it should be a cracker, with both teams keen to emerge as Kooweerup’s number-one challenger for this year’s title. “We always look forward to the games against Pakenham, we match up well with each other and they’re always pretty close games,” Avery said, before identifying the key to rolling the Lions on Sunday. “They’re a bit like us, a very even team, but Dom Paynter is probably the most dangerous. He comes in at five or six, and if they’re in trouble he brings them back in it, and if they’re on top he puts the foot down and puts them ahead of the game. “But they’ve got plenty of good players. Smithy’s (Chris Smith) dangerous and due for a big score, Chappy (Zac Chaplin) has had good year and Robbie Elston is always hard to get out. “But we’re really confident. We’ve probably worried too much about the opposition in the past but now we’re just focussing on what we need to do.” Avery is hoping a team-first mentality will lead the Seagulls to their first grand final appearance since their last premiership success in 2013. “As a team we’re combining really well and not relying on one or two players to get us across the line,” he said. “Huss (Tom Hussey) has obviously had a

great year but most of the other batsmen have chipped in and made some important runs at times.” In other games, Cardinia make the toughest road trip to Kooweerup, Clyde will look to keep its finals hopes alive against Merinda Park at Lineham Oval, while Emerald host Upper Beaconsfield in a must-win clash for both clubs.

Isn’t it ironic ... ... .don’t you think! Tooradin’s season in the WGCA Premier Division is summed up perfectly by the above lyric from Alanis Morissette’s 1996 smash hit. In fact, if you could add another lyric to the song it would go something like this. ‘We haven’t lost a game, but we sit in second place, isn’t it ironic ... don’t you think!’ The irony of Tooradin’s season continues to grow after the undefeated Seagulls fell further behind a surging Kooweerup in a weather-affected round 10 on the weekend. The Seagulls, who won their first eight games, sat idle due to extreme heat in round nine and were denied the chance to chase Upper Beaconsfield’s (5/162) competitive score on Saturday due to the skies closing in. Two weekends - two frustrating draws. The Demons, meanwhile, banked a crucial win against Clyde last Sunday - escaping the heat - before scoring their ninth win on the trot (7/186dec to 4/138) against Merinda Park on Saturday. Two weekends - two opportunistic victories. The bottom line is the Demons have now extended their margin to 16 points over the Seagulls with four rounds left in the season. But rather than dwell on his team’s luck, Tooradin skipper Aaron Avery preferred to heap praise on a team that he knows he will have to topple to earn a grip on this year’s cup. “They may have had some breaks with the weather but the bottom line is they know how to win games of cricket,” Avery said. “They had a small window on Saturday and got the job done against Merinda Park and they’ve won two outrights as well so they deserve their place on the ladder.” The Demons were ruthless against the Cobras, with Chris O’Hara (74) cracking his fourth half-century of the season and Chris Bright (47) taking his average to 49 from his last four visits to the crease. Peter Jessop (3/32) took top marks for the Cobras, who then crashed to a precarious 3/11 in reply, with Demons’ opener Jack Bacon (3/27) in red-hot form with the Kooka. Mitch Thomas (54 not out), Chris Smith (33) and Jass Dhaliwal (30 not out) played defiant roles, but the Demons rushed and crushed their way to a very impressive victory. At Upper Beaconsfield, the Seagulls were first denied by a sparkling innings from Maroons’ opener Imesh Jayasekara (91 not out), and then by the weather, the Maroons (5/162) score just a tempting target in the distance. But despite his frustration, Avery is keeping a very level approach to the remainder of the season. “We were pretty shattered that we couldn’t get out there and try and chase down the runs but all we can do now is keep winning and make sure we finish second,” the Seagulls skipper said. “That’s been our goal all along, to finish top two and host a semi-final and give ourselves the best opportunity of qualifying for a grand final. Every game from this point forward needs to be played at a finals standard.” Cardinia (8/148) was the other big winner on the weekend, with its three big-guns leading the Bulls to victory over Emerald (83) at Gunton Oval. Te Ahu Davis (55) led the way with the willow, scoring his first half century as a Bull, before the irrepressible Dwayne Doig (4/18) cut a swathe through the Bombers top order. The champion spinner took the first four wickets to fall before leaving some crumbs for both Alex Nooy (3/24) and Travis Wheller (2/22) to mop up. Julian Hanfi-Scott (3/26) and Jason Burns (21) were best of a poorly performed Bombers outfit. And Pakenham and Clyde (9/129) had to settle for a draw at Toomuc Reserve. Kane Avard (37) was top pick for the Cougars while Sean Gramc (3/27) and skipper Dom Paynter (2/19) were at the top of their games for the Lions.

Rain washes cricket away By Nick Creely Wild weather across the south-east once again proved the enemy for the local competitions, with the weekend’s cricket once again severely disrupted. Turf cricket was the hardest hit on Saturday, with no game in the Victorian Premier Cricket competition even getting through half the day’s play before the rain swept through. Dandenong got off to a strong start in their clash with Ringwood at Shepley Oval, with the Panthers rolling out another debutant, quick bowler Jakeb Thomas (0/11) from Wonthaggi. Experienced Rams openers David King (25) in game 200 - and Pat Ashton (13) got the visitors off to 41 runs for the first wicket, before young talent Pat Turner (1/18) trapped King in front to get the Panthers on the board. All-Rounder James Nanopoulos (1/15) wasted little time finding his length, and eventually forced Ashton to snick one behind to Jacques Augustin only a few overs later. The Rams entered lunch at 3/56 after a late Akshat Buch (1/2) wicket just before the end of the session, but only a few overs were played after the main break as rain pelted down in the area, and the day ended with the visiting team on 4/68 after 36 overs. Down at Toorak Park, 32 overs were bowled between Prahran and Casey-South Melbourne, with the True Blues finishing on 1/133. But, as per the Premier Cricket rules of 2017/18, both games will revert into one dayers next week. In Women’s Premier Cricket on Sunday, Dandenong were taught a harsh cricketing lesson by Plenty Valley at Shepley Oval in a Twenty20. The Panthers sent Meagan Ciavarella’s side into bat, with the visitors putting up a strong 128 off their 20 overs. Shiromi Wijeratne (3/20) and Sarah Elliot (2/17) were the pick of the bowlers for the home side.

Berwick opener Jarryd Willis is bowled first ball of the match on Saturday. 176657 Pictures: ROB CAREW All it took was a stunning spell from spinner Providence Cowdrill (5/6) to inflict the Panthers to a tough loss, bowled out for just 78 in 18 overs. Jess Matin top scored for the Panthers with a fighting 27. In the Dandenong District Cricket Association’s Turf 1 and 2 grades, all games were disrupted due to the weather, with rain coming down in the afternoon. In Turf 1, four matches got a reasonable start, with the clash between Berwick and Cranbourne drawing out to 51 overs before the rain took over. In a fascinating beginning to the match, the highly fancied Bears were immediately under the pump from the struggling Eagles. After skipper Lucas Ligt sent Berwick in, Pardeep

Boyal (4/29) struck with the first ball of the match, knocking out opening batsman Jarryd Willis’ stumps. The Bears struggled in the tough batting conditions on an excellent bowling track, crawling their way from 4/39 to 7/123 after Nathan Pilon (42) and Jarrod Armitage (37 not out) salvaged something from the wreckage. Buckley Ridges reached 0/86 against St Mary’s before play was abandoned, Hallam Kalora Park were cruising at 0/59 against North Dandenong before rain soaked Lois Twohig Reserve, while Mordialloc and Heinz Southern Districts (2/14) didn’t get much play in. Dandenong West’s clash with Dingley was abandoned last Friday night, while rain leaked through the covers at Alex Nelson Reserve meaning no play was possible between

Springvale South and Narre Warren. All Turf 1 matches will be replayed as one dayers next week, except the match between Berwick and Cranbourne. The DDCA’s Under 21 side also played its semi-final of the Neil Wright Shield on Sunday, but were inflicted with a heavy 93 run loss to Southern Bayside at Boss James Reserve in Hampton. Winning the toss and batting, Bayside’s batsmen were full of momentum from the very start, and finished in a blaze of glory to finish 5/226 off their 40 overs. Talented young spinner Riley Siwes (2/52) was the only multiple wicket taker for the DDCA. The DDCA were rocked early by the wickets of Liam Hamilton (3) and Jack Jessiman (0), and couldn’t fully recover to be bowled out for 129. Skipper Caleb Millman (29), Imran Laghmani (28) and Zach Martin (20) all put in solid performances. In other news, the DDCA’s Twenty20 quarter-finals will be played on Wednesday night (tonight), with Berwick hosting North Dandenong, Springvale South clashing with Dingley, Mordialloc travelling to Park Oval to play Buckley Ridges, and St Brigid’s/St Louis playing Heinz Southern Districts.

Lang Lang and Nyora played for the inaugural Beyond Blue Trophy on Saturday.

Clubs combine for a great cause By Lang Lang President Bob Taylor The match between Lang Lang and Nyora on Saturday held extra significance with the game taking place for the inaugural Beyond Blue Trophy donated by Nyora captain Jake Hackett. Owing to the inclement weather the game was declared a draw with both sides claiming a moral victory. On Saturday night the spotlight turned to the Lang Lang Hall where the crowd heard a talk on the issues associated with depression, anxiety disorders and related mental disorders.

Nyora President Don Scott welcomed everyone to the event and introduced guest speaker Gary Friend, who gave a wonderful and informative talk on the subject. This was the first year of the Beyond Blue Trophy but all agreed it was a huge success and will only get bigger as the years roll by. On behalf of Lang Lang I would like to congratulate Nyora Cricket Club on showing such great initiative for a good cause.

Riding high after the recent acquisition of the Beaconsfield Driving Range, the club will host the eighth edition of the challenge on Friday 23 February. An 11.30am shotgun start will signify the start of the three-person Ambrose event, which features an opportunity to win $10,000 by having a hole in one on the par three fourth hole. Entry per team is $450 which includes golf for three players, on-course food and drinks, food after the round and a large bucket of range balls for each player. Nearest the pins on all par threes and lon-

gest drives over three grades will also prove popular, while novelty holes and an aftergame shootout will also keep the masses entertained. This year the club is also offering a fantastic 'Team Sponsorship' package that allows businesses to nominate their team's starting hole on the day and includes hole signage on that starting hole. The sponsorship package also includes vouchers for rounds of golf for four players for all three team members, vouchers for four large buckets of range balls at the newly acquired driving range next door for all three team members. The sponsorship packages will go quickly at a cost of just $350 so businesses are encouraged to apply quickly.

Windy rinks rock top side CRANBOURNE BOWLS While the second side cruised to a magnificent 40-shot win against Mt Waverley at home, it was disaster for the top side playing on a tricky synthetic windswept green at Pakenham. After the long break the ladies Division-1 side resume playing this Tuesday at home and remain on top of the ladder. Side 1 - Division 2 Cranbourne played Pakenham away with two rinks competitive. Skip Ron Lyfield, playing with his old mate Neil Drummond, managed to squeeze out a one-shot win and skip Frank Byrne just fell off the pace on the last end to lose by three shots. But the other two rinks were soundly beaten on the day. “No excuses, we just could not match it with them on a tricky wind swept synthetic green today” said team member Peter Elgar after the game. Cranbourne went on to lose by 55 shots and hopefully will redeem themselves next week when they take on Berwick at home. Side 2 - Division 3 Full points went to Cranbourne with a 40shot win with all rinks winning at home. Skip Sue Hudson won by 11 shots, well supported by Terry Byrnes, Joe Byrne and Tony Collins. Skip Graeme Wood continues to impress with his team winning also by 11 shots. He had strong support of his team mates with Maree Taylor, Peter De Lisle and Ian Barrenger giving their best. Skip Chris Griffiths was a lot steadier on the bowling green than on a tractor with a massive 14-shot win, well supported by club legend, Ray Boskell Joy McLisky and Michael Scotter. Skip Gerry Dudink got off to a slow start but persevered and went on to win by four shots with Vic Butera, Nick Arnold and Brian Grant all contributing significantly to the victory.

Destanee draws high praise Wild weather on the rinks By David Nagel Narre Warren teenager Destanee Aiava has drawn comparisons with one of the greatest players of all time despite a 7-6 (7-5), 6-1 defeat to world number one Simona Halep in the first round of the Australian Open. The 17-year-old roared out to a 5-2 lead in the first set before last year’s French Open finalist steadied, eventually winning in one hour and 51 minutes. Halep paid tribute to Aiava after their Rod Laver Arena encounter, saying the 193-ranked Australian had similar power to all-time great Serena Williams. “She is very talented and powerful, and I think she is going to be very good,“ the Romanian said. “She’s a little bit like Serena, she’s hitting the ball strong, she’s a powerful girl and for sure

she will be good in the future.” Aiava, who was awarded a wildcard for her Australian Open debut last year, said confidence was the main thing she would take away from the clash against the world’s best. “The fact that she referenced me to Serena gives me a lot of confidence in myself,“ Aiava said in her post-match interview. “I feel honoured as well, especially coming from her, being the best player in the world right now. I’m going to take a lot of confidence out of that match.“ Aiava is continuing on from a breakthrough 2017, when the then 16-year-old was named by Australian captain Alicia Molik to make her Fed Cup debut against Serbia. Aiava will always be remembered as the first player born in the 2000s to compete in a grand slam main draw when she took to the court for last year’s Australian Open. Destanee Aiava pushed the world’s best player at Rod Laver Arena on Tuesday. 163919 Picture: SUPPLIED
