When Robert Manning went freediving the last thing he expected was to find his friend unconscious 12 metres underwater.

The 67-year-old Cranbourne man and his friend, Nathan Watson, 30, also an experienced free diver, had been scouting for fish off Leonards Island near Eden in New South Wales on 5 June 2014.

“The plan was to meet at the boat in an hour’s time,” Mr Manning said.

“His float hadn’t been moving for quite some time and I got curious and starting moving over to his direction,” recalled Mr Manning.

He followed the line down and saw Mr Watson lying on his back, motionless 12 metres from the surface on the sea floor.

“Before I did anything I had to go up and breathe,” he said. Mr Manning then swam back down to his friend where he “ripped his weight belt off and got him to the surface.”

He removed Mr Watson’s face mask, finding him unresponsive. “He was staring into the sun, he was gone. We’d lost him I thought.

“I rinsed his mouth and face and blew three or four breathes into him. His chest and everything was rising.“ Despite being about 300 metres from their boat, Mr Manning immediately began CPR and swam the man towards the boat.

“Everything was in slow motion. I was cool, calm, collected even though in the back of mind I thought I’d lost him.”

Once on the boat, he called triple-zero before returning to administering CPR for 45 minutes.

“I wasn’t going to give up ever,” said Mr Manning. “I would’ve kept doing it for days until someone took over.

“I had to push the panic and fear aside and try and bring him back to life,“ he said.

Finally Mr Watson regained consciousness and began to breathe on his own.

Mr Manning, a cancer survivor, credits his first aid training which he had completed only days earlier prior to the incident. “I just did what I was trained to do,” he said.

Mr Watson was airlifted to Canberra and placed in a coma.

“They treated him for secondary drowning and ammonia. He made a full recovery and

THREE … secrets to good living

1

Following Your Passion The first secret of leading a good life is finding and following your passion. Dr Francis Macnab, Professor Emeritus, and founder of The Cairnmillar Institute, has given years of study to the special psychological needs associated with ageing.Psychology and psychoanalysis have been mine for more than sixty years. What a privilege it has been to meet with the large numbers of people who have experienced the challenges and traumas of life and transcended them.

2

Creating Joy An important secret of living well is finding and creating joy. I find joy in writing words. I take words and they begin to form a theme, not premeditated, but rather streams of consciousness, a flow of words. Move one word, change another, the theme takes its shape, tell its story.

3

Fulfilling Moments Another secret is creating fulfilling moments. It could be discovering someone you have not seen for years. They were always a good presence in times past. The present and the past come together, and create a wondering about a future where joy is present once more.

saying something says a lot

To end family violence we need to recognise how it starts. It starts with a lack of respect for women. Whether it’s just a joke or a passing remark, when a mate says something about women that you think isn’t right, let him know about it. Speak up. Staying silent means you accept what he said, and he gets away with it.

You don’t have to say much, just something.

Wheelie bin war over $20

By Brendan Rees An elderly resident has declared war with Casey Council over their failure to pick up his bin, sending them a $20 bill.

Allan Mills of Cranbourne says he was at the end of his tether "dealing with idiots" from council with what he thought would be a simple reimbursement.

He says he "thought it was strange" when his wheelie bin went uncollected at the front of his Campbell Parade home on Thursday 3 May. "I told my wife and she told me to leave it out," he said.

As days passed and the bin remained uncollected, Mr Mills decided to take a trip to the Hampton Park Transfer Station where he

forked out a $20 fee to have the bin emptied.

"I have since sent emails to Casey Council and received from their representative's emails refusing to pay the reimbursement," he said.

Mr Mills, 72, says an email from council in June said they could not reimburse him because the "City of Casey did not direct you or authorise you to take the rubbish to the tip" nor did he "provide an opportunity to council or its contractor to rectify the situation."

"I'm not arguing about the truck stopping, I'm arguing the fact that the bin was not emptied."

Casey manager of waste and landfill management Michael Jansen said although "we

understand that it's frustrating when a bin collection is missed," Mr Mills' reimbursement claim had been refused.

"The resident did not contact council to advise of the missed collection or provide opportunity for council to rectify the situation before choosing to pay to use a private waste transfer station," he said.

"City of Casey has a commitment to returning to empty an uncollected bin by the end of the next business day, once the missed service is reported to council."

Mr Jansen said a letter was sent to Mr Mills with details of the internal ombudsman should he wish to have the decision reviewed.

Meanwhile, Mr Mills has written to the Vic-

torian ombudsman to take action: "I'll just keep making a fuss."

Mr Mills believes one of the emails from council was "really rude" and "didn't say sorry for the inconvenience nor can we help you."

"I just can't understand it...I worked out I've had six emails. It must have cost the council in wages about $700 to write back and tell me they're not going to pay me $20."

Residents can report a missed service within 48 hours via the online form on council's website or by calling Customer Service Centre on 9705 5200.

There is no additional cost to Council or the resident to return for a missed collection.

Tree standoff: footpath like a ‘skate ramp’

By Brendan Rees A Cranbourne resident is in a stand-off with the City of Casey over a "bloody big" council tree she says is causing havoc to her home.

Kerrie Welbourn has been battling Casey Council for 10 years to have the tree on the nature strip outside her Duff Street home removed.

She said leaves, bark, twigs and branches from the Red Flowering Gum were clogging her drains and roof gutters.

"My roof gets covered in it," Ms Welbourn said. "I physically have to get up there and scrap it all out. It's not my job to do that - it shouldn't be there."

She also likened her front footpath as a "skate ramp" due to the trees' root systems lifting the concrete and creating multiple cracks.

"There ended up being a step on the footpath because the tree lifted the concrete up

that much," Mr Welbourn said.

She said council workers came out to "bridge the gaps" on the footpath but "that all disintegrated and fell apart so you've got an even bigger step."

"Instead of the footpath being flat now, it looks like a little raised area."

Casey manager of city presentation, David Richardson says the tree had been inspected a "number of times" by arborists including last week and did not require "further works or removal."

"Council has undertaken minor works on the tree when necessary in the past to address the resident's concerns," he said "Council has not received any claims for private property damage and the footpath has been repaired to allow for the tree."

"There's a chance with a few big wind gusts it's going to be on my roof.

"They told me they were going to take some

of the height off it which they haven't done," she said.

Maurice Blackburn public safety lawyer Dimi Ioannou said councils had to ensure footpaths were kept safe and regularly maintained so they weren't open to trips and falls by the public.

"They have a duty to take reasonable care to prevent the foreseeable risk of injury arising from uneven footpaths," she said.

"Councils could be held liable where they have undertaken works but performed it negligently and if found liable pedestrians can potentially make a claim for pain and suffering damages and medical expenses."

Ms Ioannou added if councils have prior knowledge of a defect with uneven footpaths and fail to "remedy or rectify the hazard" they could be found liable.

Joy over first home buy as church and bank open doors tor Reverend Glenn Buijs.

"The vast majority of the requests came from within African communities. It became obvious a long-term strategic response was needed to a growing problem of housing affordability for refugee migrants," he said.

Reverend Buijis said the Community of the Holy Name (CHN) provided the Jireh Foundation with an initial grant of $500,000 which he hopes will further assist more migrant and refugee families of breaking into the housing market.

Learning of these concerns, the CHN Mother Superior Sr Carol approached Glenn offering a significant amount of money from the CHN community to purchase a home for a refugee family. Though selflessly generous the offer presented the dilemma of which family might be selected to benefit.

After discussion and prayer it was a decided a better, long-term solution would to create a foundation with the CHN money so that more

Jireh Foundation decided the best way to assist the maximum amount of people was to provide families with the equity needed to qualify for a housing loan."

The Community Banking Sector of Bendigo Bank has also provided the much needed third party to facilitate the Jireh Foundation as an equity provider and banker.

"We hope and expect that now that the Jireh Foundation is fully operational, we will assist a minimum of four families annually to acquire a new home," said Reverend Buijis.

Achok said her family felt like outsiders when they first stepped foot in Australia on August 2006, arriving into Melbourne.

"Owning a house in Australia is important to us because it allows us to feel like 'Australians," she says.

"It makes us feel like we are carrying our own weight and doing something for ourselves, so that we can stand in pride and sing 'Advance Australia Fair'."

A Sudanese family is celebrating the purchase of their very first home in Clyde North, which they have described as "overwhelming."

The Bieth family moved into their home - a new three bedroom detached home on Friday 27 July - courtesy of a joint partnership between the Jireh Foundation, Bendigo Bank and themselves.

It is the first Sudanese family the Jireh Foundation has assisted in purchasing their own home.

"My family and I feel overwhelmed by this, we never thought something like this could be possible but the Lord has made this possible," said the eldest daughter, Achok Bieth.

"The fact that the house is ours, we own it, we have the responsibility to take care of the house and it's something we can pass down to our children," she said.

Grandparents are all class

By Brendan Rees Nan and pop have been treated to a fun day out at Tooradin Primary School.

Students welcomed their grandparents through their school gates where they enjoyed classroom activities including a quiz, cooking homemade pasta sauce and sharing stories of school life on Thursday 15 August.

The kids also took the time to bake some tasty treats during their cooking classes to celebrate the annual Grandparent's Day event.

Teacher Rachel Davis said some grandparents even got to help planting in the school vegetable garden as a part of student's gardening classes.

"The children were very excited to show art displays and work samples that were on display and provide their Grandparents with a warm cup of homemade lentil soup on a cold winter's day," she said.

"Thank you to all our wonderful grandparents and friends who came to school and we hope they enjoyed the morning as much as we did."

Pokies toll is shocking

By Brendan Rees Punters in the City of Casey have fed hundreds of millions of dollars into pokies - prompting a leading anti-gambling campaigner to say the "blight" needed to be fixed.

The latest figures from the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation revealed City of Casey ranked second worst council for gambling losses, behind Brimbank.

Players forked out a staggering $131 million with 913 gaming machines at 13 venues between July 1 last year and June 30.

The report also showed gamblers poured $18.94 million into pokies at the Berwick Springs Hotel, $3 million at the Cranbourne RSL, $9 million at the Berwick Inn Taverner, $12 million at the Hampton Park Tavern and $7 miilion at the Amstel Golf Club in Cranbourne.

Casey acting city planning manager Kathryn Seirlis said council's preferred position was for no further growth with the number of existing or already approved Electronic Gaming Machines (EGMs) within the city.

"Council is naturally concerned about gambling losses being experienced by Casey residents," she said.

She said council wanted the State Government to extend a cap that limits the number of EGMs across the municipality.

"A city-wide cap would provide certainty to the remaining parts of Casey to keep the EGM density consistent across the municipality.

"Council is committed to minimising risk and harm from problem gambling," Ms Seirlis said.

"It is significant to note that Council was

recently successful in opposing an application by the Lynbrook Hotel, which is in the capped area, for an additional 25 EGMs." City of Casey Deputy Mayor Amanda Stapledon said: "While we can't prescribe how people live we have a responsibility to minimise harm."

"I realise how much damage this causes families and communities. I think Casey is really strong in this area, we've got to have more support from authorities," she said.

The Alliance for Gambling Reform director and spokesman Tim Costello said Casey councillors needed "to get serious" with tackling the issue of problem gambling.

"It is disappointing that City of Casey hasn't joined with 19 other Victorian councils and become a financial member of The Alliance for Gambling Reform for 2018-19 given that their community suffers the second highest losses of any council," he said.

Mr Costello suggested councillors could do something pro-active during the upcoming inaugural Gambling Harm Awareness week in October.

Cranbourne Information and Support Services executive officer Leanne Petrides said more efforts needed to be made with promoting counselling for people who wish to stop gambling.

"We know that it is far more likely that their money will be lost, and they and their families become victims of gambling related harm," she said.

"People find it very hard to talk about gambling addiction - they are extremely embarrassed."

Retracing a life’s journey

By Cam Lucadou-Wells Denise Lyons' grand plans to reprise her inspirational 32-kilometre charity walk in memory of her late sister Anne has taken an unplanned detour.

But she and the walk, which supports research into the 'forgotten cancers', are still steaming ahead on 8 September.

Ms Lyons, a personal assistant at Dandenong Hospital, had become an avid walker despite the "daily reminders" of her own cancer survival.

However at the start of the year, her daily walks were cruelled by a painful foot-ligament injury, plantar fasciitis.

"I'm absolutely hating it," she says.

"The doctors say the only treatment is rest.

It's a slow process."

Last year, she raised $4200 when she trekked from her childhood home in Nar Nar Goon to Hampton Park.

She travelled via Pakenham, Officer, Beaconsfield and Berwick to St Kevin's Catholic Church, Hampton Park - where her sister Anne's funeral service was held 16 years ago to the day.

The walk, in a way, covers the geographical arc of Anne's life.

Next month, Ms Lyons is aiming to cover about half the trip - as well as giving strong

SessIonal Kindergarten Program

support to her son Sam and other family and friends over the remaining 16 kilometres.

In the leadup, it's been a chance to delve through old photos and remember her effervescent, life-loving sister.

Anne was just 30 when first diagnosed with pancreatic cancer - the same illness that claimed her father.

She still loved life even while living with the illness for seven years, Ms Lyons said.

"She could tell a story with her hands.

"She was full of life, energy and fun."

Ms Lyons was diagnosed with cancer herself six years ago, and underwent two surgeries, chemo and radiotheraphy.

Daily, she endures lymphoedema and the occasional stinging pain. She has to avoid cuts, and take daily medication.

But she considers herself one of the lucky ones.

And along the way, she fell in love with walking.

"When you walk you solve all the problems of the world.

"It's a quiet time to think through all the things in your life.

"You see so much when you walk."

Before you embark on a campaign to ’Unblock the Gridlock’, (Berwick Star News, Thursday, 16 August), perhaps you/we need to correctly identify the most major road in the region! The Monash Freeway ENDS at Princes Highway in Narre Warren, from there it is called the Princes Freeway (East) all the way to and past Nar Nar Goon, towards Traralgon. Once we can all agree on that fact, perhaps we can then consider what needs to be done.

I have always said that the Princes Freeway should have had an extra third lane both ways from Clyde Road to at least Kooweerup Road.

Secondly, I have always said that the diamond interchange at the intersection of the Princes Freeway and the Princes Highway and the O’Shea Road non-extension east from Soldiers Road, should also be completed.

Once these main roads are completed you can then work on the many other roads that either need building or duplicating. These would include building in part and duplicating, Glasscocks Road from the Western Port Highway all the way through to Clyde Road, to give a second east-west option to Thompsons Road. Building the Cranbourne bypass, which has been on the drawing board for more than 40 years! Duplicating Hallam South Road from the Princes Highway to Pound Road and also duplicating Pound Road from Hallam Road through to Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road.

Duplicating Greaves Road and O’Shea Road from the Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road, all the way through to the Princes Freeway diamond intersection and duplicating the Narre Warren Road south from Thompson’s Road through to the Cranbourne bypass referred to above, which should be duplicated all the way to the South Gippsland Highway, along what is currently Cameron Street.

While these above suggestions are really only playing catch-up, there are still more local roads that also clearly need attention as well.

Christopher Emolution Brent: What a joke he probably forgot to put it out on time or put it somewhere the truck couldn't get at the council doesn't owe him shit he chose to take the bin to the tip instead of contacting Casey council to arrange to have his bin emptied or discuss why it wasn't collected.

Christopher Emolution Brent: Probably expected the truck to come out just to empty his bin. He isn't the only person who has missed bin day or for whatever reason his bin hasn't been collected but he expects the council to reimburse him for him choosing to go to the tip when anyone else would have had the common sense to call the council but no he didn't.

Leanne Woodman: Very occasionally trucks forget our little court. All I had to do was ring the council and they came within 12 hours and emptied the bins.

Gabriela Juncal: Even if they missed his bin, couldn't he just take it back in and put it out again the following week?

Louis J. Russell: Truck didn't collect our bin - rang council the next day and they had sent a truck out to collect within an hour. Needed a new lid on a bin - sorted by the driver the following week. I don't like Caey council much, but they do their rubbish well.......

Gillian Crosby: What a whinger, all he had to do was call the council. They quickly rectify the problem and there's no issue. I know, I've done it

It’s all lies

Fix the roads

Council want to take all the praise for getting a crossing across Pound Road near the Seniors Club. It’s all lies, the River Gum councillors didn’t know about a crossing the Seniors Club have been fighting for 18 years but got nowhere. My wife Angela who was the secretary came and told me they were getting nowhere so I took it up with my local MP and that got the ball rolling. Work is due to start this month.

D. Gardner, Hampton Park

The worst roads in my area are Shrives Road and Pound Road from the Hallam Road lights to Vanessa Drive.

Advocate for housing It would be good if our councils and papers somehow were able to advocate for, or do something to advocate for, including Social or Commission Housing in the growth of this area.

There is a waiting list for such housing and it doesn’t assist or help these people to have increasingly expensive homes for sale in the area.

A number of Hampton Park and Doveton houses were built by the Housing Commission, but have since been sold.

Karen Young, Hampton Park

Pound Road between the hours from 5.10am to 9am going west and from 3.30pm to 6.30pm going east is chaos every day plus it's made worse just past the Hallam Road lights where the road goes from three lanes into one lane.

Traffic would be a lot better if Casey Council and VicRoads pulled their socks and reopened Central Road from Shrives Road to Hallam road just get the creek bridge repaired and put traffic lights at Hallam Road.

It would take a lot of traffic away from Shrives Road because drivers on Fullard Road could go on Central Road and not turn left onto Shrives Road; Central road was closed because the creek bridge was unsafe. I just say to the council and VicRoads - fix it.

Set for fundraising trek The Kokoda Track has been on Berwick's Michael Molloy and David Mounsey's bucket list for several years, so when the Association of Financial Advisers (AFA) decided to coordinate this trek they decided to jump on board.

The AFA Foundation also supports a number of charities including Legacy, The Black Dog Institute, MS Organisation and the Make a Wish Foundation, and the two men thought these organisations were very worthy recipients of the publics' very kind donations.

They have also decided to walk the 96km Kokoda trek in honour of our WWII heroes who went over to Papua New Guinea as young men

David Mounsey and Michael Molloy are set to hike the Kokoda Track to raise money for charity. 184191 and women to defend the country from the Japanese infiltration back in 1942.

This trek will be led by Brian Freeman, world

adventurer and founder of the carrying 41 Tribute which raises awareness of veteran suicide and PTSD. There are 12 trekkers together with 25 support staff and porters (Fuzzy Wuzzy Angels) going on this trek.

Mr Molloy has previously done the 100km Oxfam walk through the Dandenong's which took about 24 hours to complete.

"It was very gruelling, but I think this Kokoda trek will be a lot harsher due to the humidity and very steep harsh terrain," Mr Molloy said.

"The 96km Kokoda trek will take us approximately seven days to complete and our only goal is to finish."

Initially the 12 trekkers set a target of $40,000

for the four charities noted, but the support from the public has been overwhelming and the current amount donated to date has been $97,000.

Their new target has been set at $100,000 with less than a week to go, so we urge you to get on to the links outlined below and donate generously to the MS Organisation, a charity dear to their hearts.

If any of the public would like to donate please click on either of the links listed below as every dollar will make a difference. https://give.everydayhero.com/au/michaelmolloy https://give.everydayhero.com/au/davidmounsey 12388226-CG22-18

Cranny to go bolly with Indian precinct?

By Brendan Rees A $5 million Indian Community Precinct will be built in Cranbourne if the Liberals win the 2018 State Election, opposition leader Matthew Guy has promised.

The precinct will feature community halls and facilities to support the teaching of languages, dance, musical instruments and singing.

A kitchen and cookery training facility will also be included as part of the precinct.

Mr Guy made the announcement on Wednesday 15 August at the Indian Consulate in Melbourne which is to-date the biggest funding for the Victorian Indian community.

Half a million dollars will also go towards a comprehensive plan for the precinct, including the establishment of a dedicated board and consultation with the Indian-Australian community, Mr Guy says the board will ensure a coordi-

nated and informed approach to the ongoing management of the "unique and important cultural precinct."

"Victorians of Indian background have made a remarkable contribution to our state," Mr Guy said.

"The Liberal Nationals understand the importance of these cultural benefits to the community, and are willing to support it by ensuring that everything is done to enhance the extensive contribution from our Indian community to Victoria."

The Liberals hope by developing the precinct that the next generation will be encouraged to learn and enjoy the beliefs and customs of the ever-growing Indian-Australian community for years to come."

Anchal Agarwal, an active member of the Indian community in Cranbourne welcomed the announcement.

"An Indian Precinct in Cranbourne would be a significant economic and cultural infra-

structure for local Indian community," she said.

"With few major future Indian celebrations to be held hopefully in the proposed Cranbourne Indian precinct it would attract Victorian Indians across the state in the City of Casey."

Mrs Agarwal said the Indian community was growing in the area and this would be a "big boost to their cultural and social life."

"The International Tourists from India visiting Phillip Island could be encouraged to drive through the Cranbourne's Indian Precinct, thereby boosting local economy."

"The local Indian community would be able to do most of their shopping in the area.

Right now for various things they have to drive down to Dandenong," she said.

Mrs Agarwal had raised the issue of a Cranbourne Indian Precinct with Matthew Guy during the Shadow Cabinet Meeting held at Cranbourne Race Course last year.

Jail for two-month spree

By Cam Lucadou-Wells A 24-year-old Narre Warren drug user has been jailed over a two-month spree of dishonesty throughout the South East in the summer of 2017-18.

Joel Luke McCarthy pleaded guilty at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court to 33 charges including the theft of a car, handling stolen goods, assaults, driving disqualified, speeding, failing to stop for police and running a red light.

He handled stolen items such as a handbag, wallets, passports and number plates as well as using stolen bank cards to make purchases.

More than 40 charges were withdrawn, with

an arson charge shifted for trial at a higher court.

The mounting charge list across a host of suburbs in Melbourne’s South East and East had not been finalised until recently.

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen noted the sheer volume of offending and locations had at least partly contributed to the delay.

“He certainly knows he caused a lot of trouble in a few months,” a defence lawyer told the court on 20 August.

“He is willing to do the time he deserves.”

At age 8, McCarthy had endured deep family tragedy without grief counselling or treatment.

Afterwards, he was raised by his grandparents.

McCarthy had graduated from cannabis use at 14 to being “controlled” by drugs such as ice and ‘juice’ (GHB) a decade later.

He moved out of home due to his drug-fuelled “lifestyle” stressing his grandparents, the court was told.

Over the past six months, he had been in remand custody.

During that stint, he’d undertaken Narcotics Anonymous and Alcoholics Anonymous courses as well as vocational training, the court heard.

At one point, McCarthy seemed taken aback when shown a photo of his former drugabused self soon after his arrest on 7 February.

“It’s shocking,” he told the court.

Magistrate Vandersteen told McCarthy: “I don’t think I’d recognise you now.”

Mr Vandersteen took into account McCarthy’s limited prior history, age, show of insight and the developmental impediment caused by his uncounselled childhood grief. jailed McCarthy for six months, declaring his time had been served in remand.

McCarthy was however remanded for a committal mention for arson at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 28 August.

He was disqualified from driving for 12 months.

Police are awaiting the results of a toxicology report for a driver believed to be at fault in the Pictures: GARY SISSONS collision. 184220

Three taken to hospital

By Brendan Rees Police and ambulance responded to the scene of a two-car collision with multiple injuries in Cranbourne on Wednesday 15 August.

The incident happened at the intersection of Narre Warren Road - Cranbourne and Marklin Street about 7.30pm.

Cranbourne Highway Patrol attended and believe a vehicle was travelling south on Narre Warren Road - Cranbourne when it rear-ended a car also travelling south-bound.

Paramedics assessed five people at the scene including a teenage girl who suffered soft tissue injuries, woman in her 20s who also

suffered soft tissue injuries, and a second teenage girl who had facial injuries and soft tissue injuries.

All three were taken to Dandenong Hospital in stable conditions.

Two men were assessed at the scene but were not transported to hospital.

Police are investigating the cause and are awaiting the results of a toxicology report for the offending driver.

He is expected to be summonsed to court at a later date.

FOCUS ON … TAX

The Australian Taxation Office is launching an extensive data-matching program to identify taxpayers receiving income from short term rentals.

Information from online platform sharing sites for around 190,000 Australians will be examined to identify taxpayers who have left out rental income and over-claimed deductions.

Assistant Commissioner Kath Anderson said the ATO is aware that some taxpayers are not declaring all their short-term rental income and “therefore we are launching an extensive data matching program to identify taxpayers who have left out income or over claimed deductions“.

“The availability of short-term rentals has exploded thanks to the online revolution, and there is evidence that some taxpayers don’t understand their taxation obligations,“ Ms Anderson said.

“The ATO will now source information from online rental platforms and match it against

the information included in tax returns. This new data complements data the ATO has been obtaining for some time in relation to longterm rentals.

“Where a discrepancy is identified, the taxpayer will be given the opportunity to explain and if necessary, lodge an amendment.

“While improvements in technology are helping people find ways to make extra money,

No relief for traffic woes

By Brendan Rees Being stuck in traffic-jams has become a daily ritual for Remy Singh.

The operator of Go-Go Cabs in Cranbourne West said he was fed up with traffic on the Monash Freeway, Thompsons Road and Hall Road, particularly when there was a collision.

He said it was also costing him customers.

"They don't ring because of traffic and taxis are more expensive than Ubers.

"If you want to go from Cranbourne West to the other side of Cranbourne North it would take half an hour," he added.

"When you go through Lynbrook there's a lot of traffic."

Mr Singh, 33, said it wasn't uncommon for him to be late in collecting customers due to traffic.

"There's a lot of traffic on Hall Road and that's a kilometre all the time," he said.

Mr Singh said of the 12 hours he worked in a day, two hours were spent stuck in traffic.

Also affected by traffic was managing director of Cranbourne Pre-Mix Angelo Palermo who said it was taking a toll on his business.

"It is delaying us big time, especially if there's an accident - it's out of the question," he said.

He said between 6.30am and 9.30am traffic congestion was at its worst from Thompsons Road to get to the Monash Freeway via Lynbrook.

He said it was important that his team delivered concrete on time "because you don't

want the concrete going off by the time it gets to the customer."

Mr Palermo said travelling east bound on Thompsons Road between Westernport Highway and South Gippsland Highway was always a headache.

"Lucky I operate with a GPS system so I can radio the trucks and say listen don't go that way, go this way," he said.

"Also, there is a bit of congestion sometimes out the front here in our service lane.

"Sometimes we have been caught in an accident and you've got to try and do a U-turn somewhere illegally and then you're putting other people's lives in danger," he said.

"Sometimes you've got to do what you've got to do.

"These road works they're doing they're taking too long."

PROPERTY NEWS

BUYERS FLOCK TO OWN PIECE OF HISTORY THE first release of Galieo’s new Mt Pleasant residential development high above Pakenham has proved exceptionally popular with buyers, Premium lots flew out the door, selling 82 on the weekend of the launch day, Saturday 4 August.

Featuring 100-acres of prime land in Melbourne’s South East, part of the site’s appeal is its rich history dating back 175 years to city’s early days.

In 1843, an adventurous young Englishman named Thomas Minton was inspired by the site’s rolling hills and picturesque outlook to make it his home.

Christening his holdings ‘Mt Pleasant,’ his was one of the first pioneer families in the area.

Just seven years later there were enough residents nearby to establish a hotel, which quickly became a coach staging post and then a small village named ‘Pakenham’.

Minton’s acreage is now set to begin a brand-new chapter as the location for a next-generation, contemporary community in Pakenham’s heart.

The site will transformed into more than 500 home lots with land sizes ranging from approximately 300 to 1500 square metres - room enough for every buyer to build the home of their dreams.

“The buzz on launch day was phenomenal as future neighbours chatted over coffee and children destined to grow up together played in the petting zoo,” says Peter Nicolls, KR Peters Director.

“It was wonderful to see so many families ready to move to the area and call Mt Pleasant home,” he added. “It’s the kind of place people can imagine creating the life they’ve always wanted and building a prosperous future for their children in a

thriving, like-minded community - just like Thomas Minton did 175 years ago.”

Only a few lots remain available from the

first release. For more information about owning a piece of Melbourne’s pioneer history, contact Mt Pleasant Estate on 1300

Men, look after your mates

By Russell Bennett One key message came through loud and clear when close to 500 men came together for the fifth annual Cardinia Casey Biggest Ever Blokes Lunch at the Cardinia Cultural Centre in Pakenham on Friday: Look after yourself, and look out for your mates.

A record crowd posted a record profit for the event, with $130,000 raised in the afternoon for prostate cancer research and awareness, as well as local men’s health initiatives.

That takes the total raised over the event’s five-year history to $460,000.

Organising committee chairman Garry Howe was thrilled with the success of the event.

Mr Howe said it was not all about the money and that attracting that many men in the room to talk about their health issues was a greater achievement.

“Blokes are generally not good at looking after themselves and getting to the doctor to have a check-up,” he explained.

“I think a lot more are aware of their health now that we’ve been lecturing them for a few years and hopefully the local clinics are seeing a bit more of them now.”

The huge crowd - the biggest to ever attend the event at the Cultural Centre - heard from Prostate Cancer Foundation of Australia’s state chief executive John Strachan, Berwick-based

urologist Shekib Shahbaz and local prostate cancer survivors Roger McGill and Troy Apthorpe.

Mr McGill, in his 70s, spoke about just how close he came to losing his life through his battle with the disease, and emphasised the importance of regular check-ups.

“I was a bit unlucky - they did lose me on the (operating) table but that doesn’t happen to everyone, don’t worry about that, and they brought me back,” he said.

“I did have a very aggressive cancer.”

Mr Apthorpe also spoke of his own battle, having been diagnosed in his 40s.

“The biggest thing I was told after I was diagnosed was to get the message out there, and the message is we all find time to catch up with our mates, or go to work, or get our kids to footy - please take the time once a year on your way home or on your way to work, or even take a sickie, to go and get a check-up,” he said.

“It’s that simple. I’m 50-years-of-age in

November, and I’m pretty lucky ... I probably shouldn’t be sitting here today.”

The men’s health message was also rammed home by keynote speaker, Essendon Football Club legend James Hird.

He spoke of his mental health struggles through a particularly tumultuous past five years as football’s ‘supplements saga’ engulfed not only the game and the club he loved, but also his own private life.

“I don’t know how many people here have been through depression, or had a brother, a sister, a wife, a mother, a daughter, a father or a friend who’s been through it - but it’s the worst illness you could get,” he said.

“I got my face smashed in Perth and got 10 metal plates through here and I almost lost my eye in 2002 from this knock, and I thought that was the most horrendous pain I could go through.

“I’d go through that every day of the week before I’d go through the depression I went through.

“If you know anybody (battling mental health issues), or you’re there yourself, you’ve got to rely on people and if you know people in that position go and help them - talk to them.

They probably won’t ring you back. They won’t respond to you because they’re in such a dark place, but you have to help and keep contacting, and contacting, and contacting them.”

Camping out for refugees

By Brendan Rees Students of Casey Grammar spent a night without their usual comforts as part of their effort to raise money for World Vision.

Twenty-five students and staff took part in the 40 Hour Famine's new Backpack Challenge which started at 8pm on Friday 17 August to help raise funds for displaced children impacted by the refugee crisis.

They camped overnight on the school oval with the basic necessities and participated in a range of activities to experience what it would be like for refugees who flee their homes with very little.

This included team building activities including crossing through fences and rivers and some students cared for a baby doll.

The students were allowed packed food, sleeping bags and tents.

In the evening, students also cooked Rocky Road, lemon slice and choc-coconut slice for the Cranbourne Food Truck.

The school's chaplain Monique RivierePendle said the students embraced the challenges and were appreciative of the small things in life.

"The overwhelming sense from all involved is how easy it is to forget how fortunate we are and how challenging life can be without the basics," she said.

"Whilst we were going to sleep out in tents, a few collapsed and the wild weather threatened, so halfway through the night most moved inside, relieved that they had a second option.

"They also worked with Judy who volunteers for Days for Girls and assisted with making sanitary items for girls in developing coun-

tries," she said.

The school was currently sitting third in the state for the most money raised with $8100.

Students left school at 9am on Saturday 18 August and continued the challenge until 8am on Sunday 19 August living out of their backpacks.

One student said: "It must be so intensely difficult to be a refuge and it must take so much strength and perseverance."

School chaplain Monique Riviere-Pendle briefs students prior to them starting their 40-hour famine experience.

Free TAFE courses galore

By Brendan Rees Free courses have expanded at Chisholm TAFE in Cranbourne with an additional seven courses being made available from next year.

Premier Daniel Andrews, together with the Minister for Training and Skills, Gayle Tierney MP announced on Thursday 16 August that 10 non-apprenticeship courses and two preapprenticeship courses will be free under the Andrews Labor Government's Free TAFE for Priority Courses initiative.

The additional courses at Chisholm TAFE in Cranbourne include: Certificate III in Commercial Cookery, Certificate IV in Cyber Security, Certificate IV in Youth Work, Certificate IV in Alcohol and Other Drugs, Diploma of Justice, Certificate III in Tourism and Certificate II in Building and Construction (pre-apprenticeship).

From 1 January 2019, Free TAFE for Priority Courses covers tuition fees for priority courses for students who are eligible for governmentsubsidised training.

The announcement comes as Mr Andrews toured Cranbourne Chisholm on Wednesday 1 August and met with students who are undertaking courses that will be free from term 1, 2019.

The free priority course list at Chisholm Cranbourne includes a total of 20 non-apprenticeship courses and 18 courses that provide pathways to apprenticeships.

Cranbourne's Chisholm Institute CEO Dr. Rick Ede said the free TAFE initiative was a great opportunity for students in the south east.

"The free TAFE initiative will give the Casey community the required skills and knowledge to assist then to obtain employment in industry throughout Casey and surrounding area. This area has a large number of businesses that require a steady, skilled workforce," he said.

Premier Daniel Andrews visits Chisholm TAFE in Cranbourne in August. Accompanying him was from left, Jane McLennan (CEO Chisholm Institute of TAFE), Labor candidate for Cranbourne Pauline Richards and Head of Water Industries and Workplace Safety Service at National Water Centre TAFE, Lisa Kinross.

183564 Picture: GARY SISSONS Member for Eastern Victoria Region, Harriet Shing said: "We know that the cost of training can be a huge barrier to getting the right skills, so we're investing $172 million to provide free TAFE across 30 priority courses and 20 pre-apprenticeship courses in key areas of industry and jobs growth."

TAFE institutes, including universities that offer TAFE courses, across Victoria can take enrolments in 2018 for free TAFE courses that begin in 2019.

A-League at Casey Fields?

By Nick Creely Casey Fields will play host to the majority of Team 11's home games in its debut A-League season if it is granted a licence to join the national competition.

The sporting precinct - which plays host to a raft of sports and is the home of Melbourne Demons' AFLW side and also has AFL pre-season matches at the site - will give Team 11 an readymade local option to host matches while the construction of a rectangular stadium next to Dandenong Train Station is completed.

The build time for the boutique stadium would be approximately two years, subject to A-League entry and State Government funding, meaning that Team 11 would need to find an alternative.

City of Casey Mayor Geoff Ablett confirmed that they will host the Team 11 side for the majority of their matches.

"Casey Fields is already the premier regional sport, recreation and play precinct in Melbourne's south-east, known widely for its size and success in providing such a diverse mix of quality facilities for a range of sports and recreation opportunities," he said.

"We are confident that the intimate capacity, uninterrupted sight lines and ample standing room around the venue will provide a unique and enjoyable experience for A-League fans in the early evolution of Team 11."

Team 11 project officer Matt Windley said that it was extremely important to keep matches in the south-east.

"We are a club that will be representing a specific part of the state. Why would we take our games away from that region when many of our potential fans are telling us that distance to the city is one thing preventing them from

becoming hard-core followers of Melbourne's existing clubs," he said.

"In an ideal world we would be playing out of Dandenong Stadium from day one, but the reality is stadiums are not built overnight.

"For the sake of football's future 10, 50, 100 years from now, we think the potential of having a boutique rectangular stadium in the middle of one of the country's major population hubs is an

exciting proposition worth waiting for."

In a show of support for the progress of Team 11's bid, a large host of local south-east clubs gathered at Casey Fields on Tuesday 14 August to brainstorm about the bid, and to find out any further information.

Power clubs in the region such as Dandenong City, Berwick City and number of others were in attendance, as the excitement builds

ahead of some key deadlines.

Final bids are due by 31 August, and the announcement of the two successful bids is expected by 31 October.

There are currently 10 active bids (including Team 11) across Australia, with South Melbourne FC and Western Melbourne the other Victorian regions looking to obtain an ALeague licence in 2019/20.

The Cavs are primed for Big V grand final action.

Grand final time at the business end for Cavs’ season

By Hayley Wildes With a spot in the Big V Division 1 women's grand final up for grabs, it was the Casey Cavaliers' defence that got them over the line and into the big dance.

They join the Cavs Youth League 2 women - who booked their place in the grand final a week earlier - in the Championship round.

Taking on the Geelong Supercats at Casey Stadium on Saturday night, the Cavs were at their suffocating best, limiting the Supercats to a measly six points in the first quarter.

Despite not being able to take full advantage of their defensive work due to their inefficiency on offence, the Cavs five-point quarter 28 STAR NEWS

Thursday, 23 August, 2018

time lead was increased to 10 at half time.

Loni Jeffs scored 10 vital first half points and was the one player able to find her offensive rhythm early.

The third quarter was when Casey's offence returned to normal programming as they opened the second half on an 8-0 run and held Geelong scoreless for the first four minutes of the quarter.

Steph Pal lit up the third quarter with eight points and with a quarter to play, the Cavs had a massive 20-point lead.

With the game all but over, the Supercats outscored the Cavs 19-14 in the final quarter, but it mattered little as the Cavs booked their

place in the grand final with a comprehensive 64-49 win.

Casey's defensive work was the highlight as they held Geelong to just 26% shooting from the field and never allowed them back in the game after jumping out to an early lead.

Loni Jeffs (16 points, 5 rebounds) led the way for the Cavs and produced big plays when no one else could. Tarryn Wilkin (10 rebounds, 9 points) and Jamie-Lee Jeffs (10 points, 8 rebounds) were important, while Stephanie Pal (10 points, 5 rebounds) provided a nice boost off the bench.

Looking ahead, it would be an understatement to say it's going to be a massive

two weeks for both the Division 1 and Youth League 2 women's teams. With Championship glory on the line, both tip-off their respective best-of-three grand final series on the road this weekend.

The Division 1 women make the long trip over to Warrnambool to face the Mermaids on Saturday from 6pm, while the Youth League 2 women will take on the Blues in Frankston at the same time.

After finishing on top of their respective competitions, both Cavs teams have homecourt advantage, meaning games two and three (if necessary) will be played at Casey Stadium the following weekend. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

The partnership between Casey Basketball and the YMCA Open Doors program may be a new one, but the positive effects are already being felt within the City of Casey.

With Casey Basketball getting behind YMCA Open Doors - an initiative that provides full or subsidised access to YMCA programs and services to people in need - the program will be able to provide even more programs to those in the local community that need them most.

"Our association embraces worthy causes, and are proud to support the YMCA Open Doors Program," Casey Basketball general manager Tammy Bower said.

"We see first-hand the benefits this program has made in the local community, and look forward to future opportunities to work together."

Casey Basketball's connection to the City of Casey is immense and with this new partnership, that connection becomes even stronger.

YMCA Open Doors aims to help as many people as possible and the $992 raised by Casey Basketball - through hosting multiple sausage sizzles, a raffle and a Big V round - will help four people undertake swimming lessons for nine months.

"Within the Casey municipality, we have a lot of kids that don't have much experience with water," YMCA community engagement coordinator Tori Norris said.

"Because of this, one of our big focuses is helping kids gain basic water safety training and making sure that, if the situation occurred, they could get themselves out of danger."

Norris has seen the positive effect the program has on those involved.

"It's unbelievable and this might be something that some of us take for granted, but they've got something to go to school and talk about," she said.

"It gives them the ability to be more inclusive with other kids.

One might think football careers end when your mid-30s roll around, but Superules football is proving you can play well into your 50s if the passion still burns.

Superules is football for the over 35s and recently Beaconsfield - in the last round of the season - celebrated what may just be the most impressive games milestone haul in a single match ever.

Col Cameron (200 games), Peter Lowe (150 games), Collin Ross (150 games), Paul La Roche (100 games), Shaun Stirton (100 games) and Darren Hansen (100 games) all reached major milestones on August 12.

With 800 combined games played, it was a moment to savour for the club.

Football has brought those involved with the Beaconsfield Superules together, but it's about much more than the game that keeps everyone coming back.

It's the comradery and mateship that makes the group special.

Cr Collin Ross, Mayor of the Cardinia Shire Council, has been involved with the Beaconsfield Superules since 2004 and he has seen the positive physical effects firsthand.

"I think a lot of guys that have played football earlier in their lives really enjoy that team and club atmosphere," he said.

"We're a long time retired from football, so when you can keep doing an activity with people that you enjoy being around, it's a whole lot easier than trying to go out there by yourself - it gives a purpose to keeping fit and active."

He also talked about the importance of Superules for mental health.

Wickers apply the heat

By Nick Creely SOUTH EAST FOOTBALL NETBALL LEAGUE REVIEW - ROUND 16 Berwick and Narre Warren may have had their eyes firmly fixed on what's yet to come, but Saturday provided a fascinating glimpse into the mindset of both clubs entering finals.

With notable outs including Madi Andrews, Jo West and Michael Riseley for the Wickers and Brad Scalzo and Nick Scanlon sitting out for the Magpies, depth was on display, and the Wickers proved too strong, 8.19 (67) to 4.6 (30).

Perhaps their only blemish was their goal kicking, but it was nonetheless an impressive performance driven by a class display from Bryce Rutheford, who was simply sublime.

The Magpies' defence was certainly under its fair share of duress across the day, but despite the Wickers' dominance, they could only hold a nine-point lead at quarter time.

At quarter time, Wickers coach Stewart Kemperman lauded his side for its 12 inside 50 tackles, saying "we're on boys, I can feel it."

They certainly were, producing a quality second quarter to extend their margin to 26 at the main break, a lead that the Magpies were unable to claw back from.

Rutherford's presence was immense, offering plenty from the inside before bursting away to be a menace with his run, and his teammates lifted with him, with the likes of Luke Sheppard, Luke Jellyman-Turner and Reece Piper finding a stack of the footy to give their forwards plenty of looks at goal.

After struggling to deal with the wave of pressure supplied by the Wickers, the Magpies could only add one major in the third term courtesy of a cracking running goal by Jake Richardson, and starred down the barrel of a heavy defeat.

Magpies coach Matt Shinners issued a challenge to his players ahead of the final quarter, staring his players in the eyes and delivering a message.

"We haven't really worked for each other let's see if we can work to instruction," he said.

"Let's at least try and win this quarter, and finish it off."

They did win the last quarter, snaring two late goals, with Dylan and Ryan Quirk once again prominent, while Joel Zietsman was once again impressive in defence.

But it was a quality effort from the reigning premiers, who have hit top gear at exactly the right time of the season.

"I'm certainly happy with our effort, and our application to the contest, and I suppose we didn't execute as well as we would have liked," Kemperman said of the game.

"But there are plenty of areas of improvement."

Down at Frenken Homes Oval, Beaconsfield gained a huge confidence booster with a gritty win over Cranbourne, 8.10 (58) to 6.8 (44).

Now with three wins ahead of finals, it's the perfect preparation for the Eagles, who have built steadily after a raft injuries.

Leading at every change, the Eagles showed great maturity, with the likes of Tylah Stokoe, Matt Homfray, Damien Johnston and Jake Bowd leading from the front to claim a late season scalp.

Beaconsfield's Tylah Stokoe runs into goal on Saturday against Cranbourne. 184189 "My boys really enjoy playing them, it's always a challenge and the players have a great amount of respect for each other from both clubs," Beaconsfield coach Leigh McQuillen said of the match.

McQuillen believes his side was even across the board, and was thrilled with how his group matched up on the Eagles' quality forward line and midfield. "(It was) very pleasing - it's two pronged as you not only have to get your match ups right on their key targets but you also have to win more of the midfield battle," he said.

"We believe we did well in both areas after they defeated us at their home ground earlier in the year.

"They're a good side and they do play an extremely attacking brand so we invested the time into them earlier in the year knowing we had them again and possibly in the finals."

For the Eagles, usual suspects Brandon Osborne and Michael Wenn were terrific.

And Tooradin-Dalmore held on to register a nail biting win over finals bound Officer in their

final game of the season, 11.16 (82) to 12.7 (79).

Down by the Westernport and with a stiff breeze, the Seagulls held the Kangaroos scoreless to be 27 points up at quarter time, before Doug Koop's side fought back to level pegging at half time.

In a see sawing final half, the Seagulls once again used the wind to their advantage to work out to a 29 point lead with a quarter to play, and despite being held goalless in the final term, held on to win narrowly.

Andrew Dean finished his strong year off with three majors next to his name in a quality display, while Luke McKenna, Nathan Goodacre and Jake O'Donnell all played well.

For the Kangaroos on a disappointing day, Tyler Clark, James Waldon and Will Hanson were all important contributors.

In the final game of the round, Pakenham finished the year off on a high with a comfortable win over Doveton, 14.9 (93) to 5.9 (39).

The Lions and Doves were neck and neck for the first half, but Ash Green's side powered away with a 12 goal to three final half.

Eagles’ main man signs on

By Nick Creely Cranbourne coach Steve O'Brien has been locked away, with the Eagles main man signing a contract extension to the end of the 2020 season.

After a review of the football coaching appointments for 2019, a unanimous vote of confidence was given towards the re-appointment of O'Brien, with the club announcing on Thursday 16 August to its members that he will stay on for a further two years in a sign they are looking for stability into the future.

O'Brien has brought through plenty of youth in his first season in charge, but has his side well and truly in the premiership frame to challenge after finishing in third spot on the SEFNL ladder.

Football director Manny Vella is thrilled with the signing of O'Brien, and said it was important for the future of the club as it embarks on a new challenge in 2019.

"The club is now well positioned to continue its growth on and off the field and we look forward to the likely move to the MPNFL in 2019," he said in a statement.

Vella said that O'Brien has exceeded all expectations in his first year, stripping things back and backing in his style, something that has made them one of the most eye-catching sides to watch.

"We're extremely happy (with O'Brien's progress) - on field, we're probably 12 months ahead of where we thought we'd be," he said.

"Our average age has actually gone significantly down, so we're extremely pleased."

Steve O'Brien will remain as Cranbourne coach until the end of 2020. 177394 Picture: NICK CREELY cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Bulls score upset win over Hawks

By Hayley Wildes

By Hayley Wildes and Nick Creely EASTERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE DIVISION 1 - ROUND 17 Noble Park came to play against Rowville and delivered a thrilling upset win over the Hawks at Seebeck Oval on Saturday.

A five-goal to one second term set up the win for the Bulls as Jake Gains, Cosimo Anagnostou and Piva Wright (three goals) played pivotal roles across the ground.

The Hawks came storming home in the final term, but were unable to pull off the comeback, falling short by 10 points - 11.13 (79) to 10.9 (69).

Aaron Bond was impressive for Rowville in a disappointing day that now sees them fall to fifth with a round to play. A win against the lowly East Ringwood Kangaroos on Saturday will guarantee the Hawks a finals berth.

SOUTHERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE DIVISION 2 - ROUND 18 On the eve of finals, the Doveton Eagles sent an ominous warning to the rest of the league as they claimed the minor premiership with a brutal 103-point win over the fourth-placed Keysborough, 23.16 (154) to 8.3 (51).

A barnstorming nine-goal second term set up the win as the Eagles - led by Darren Sheen (seven goals), Russell Robertson (four goals) and Nick Battle - flexed their muscle. Riet Pal stood up for the Burras.

DIVISION 3 - ROUND 17 Endeavour Hills took care of the lowly Black Rock with an 11.9 (75) to 4.5 (29) win. Nathan Reid and Byron Hoe were dominant for the Falcons.

Hallam came agonisingly close to claiming its first win of the season but fell 7.4 (46) to 5.9 (39) against Ashwood. Rory McIvor and Dylan Thompson almost got the Hawks over the line with superb performances.

Hampton Park's dominant season continued with a demolition of South Yarra. A ninegoal to one opening term had the game all but won at quarter-time and the Redbacks went onto win 22.18 (150) to 3.8 (26). Michael Henry was sublime for Hampton Park.

Springvale Districts claimed a win over Heatherton, 13.15 (93) to 4.3 (27). Mladen Josic was best for the Dees, while Justin Whyte was strong for Heatherton.

DIVISION 4 - ROUND 18 In the final round of the season, Dandenong claimed its fourth win of the season with a solid performance against the bottom-placed and highly inaccurate Sandown Cobras.

The Redlegs led at every change as Michael Scott's fine season was completed with another striking performance, which included three goals. Dandenong claimed the win, 9.8 (62) to 3.13 (31).

For the Cobras, Nathan Isles and Shane Cosstick were best.

Demons’ streak snapped

Noble Park's Luke Nelson (7), Luke Bull (2), and Ali Zijai (64) celebrate the win over Rowville on Picture: ROB CAREW the final siren. 184232 Carrum Patterson Lakes - who had already wrapped up the minor premiership - were beaten by Frankston in an absolute thriller. It was a back-and-forth battle all day, and with the Dolphins leading by one point at the final break, they held on for a classic win, 7.6 (48) to 7.5 (47).

Carrum Patterson Lakes were led by Toby Darma and Liam Hickman.

Lyndhurst was a class above Moorabbin as they held the Kangaroos scoreless for the first three quarters, eventually running out 17.16 (118) to 1.1 (7) winners. Jarrod Murphy (five goals) was dynamic for the Lightning.

Cerberus completely dominated Lyndale from start to finish to claim a massive 17.16 (118) to 1.1 (7) win. The Pumas had no answers for the offensive weapons that Cerberus possessed.

MORNINGTON PENINSULA NEPEAN DIVISION TWO - WEEK 1 FINALS Red Hill powered away to a barnstorming qualifying final win against Karingal at Somerville on Saturday, 8.11 (59) to 3.9 (27).

The Hillmen were up by seven points at three quarter time in a slow scoring encounter, before slamming the door shut by kicking four unanswered goals in the final term.

Down at RJ Rowley Reserve on Sunday, Langwarrin knocked out Chelsea from the premiership race in a tight elimination final, 9.15 (69) to 8.9 (57).

The Kangaroos got the jump to lead by 28 at quarter time, and managed to hold off the Seagulls, who came close to running all over the top of their opponents with a gallant final term.

Dromana will take on Red Hill in the second semi-final at Hastings on Saturday, while Karingal get another chance on Sunday when they do battle with Langwarrin.

SOUTH EAST WOMEN'S FOOTBALL DIVISION 1 - WEEK 1 FINALS Cranbourne's finals dreams are over after they were unable to kick a winning score against Mornington at Holm Park Reserve on Sunday afternoon.

The Eagles trailed by just two points at the main break, but the Bulldogs scored two vital third-quarter goals and despite kicking with the wind in the final term, Cranbourne couldn't find the goals they so desperately craved.

Mornington claimed the win, 3.7 (25) to 1.6 (12). Alicia Heins starred for Cranbourne in a dynamic display, while Brooke Campbell and Shani Dixon battled hard all day.

Riding a 12-game winning streak, the Casey Demons came crashing back to earth over the weekend as the Box Hill Hawks thoroughly outworked them.

In terrible conditions at Box Hill City Oval, the Demons were unable to work their way into the game as the Hawks simply wanted the ball, and the win, more.

Although it was an even first quarter, the Hawks dominated proceedings in the second term and then kicked away with a brutal third quarter performance.

With the wind and rain playing havoc, Hawk David Mirra was one of the few players able to navigate the conditions and he looked a class above from the outset.

Despite trailing by just 13 points at halftime, 4.7 (31) to 2.6 (18), the Demons were thoroughly outplayed and it all fell apart in a devastating third term display from the Hawks.

Dangerous Hawk small forward James Murphy booted two goals, helping his side to a seven-goal to three third quarter.

For Casey, the likes of Corey Wagner, Declan Keilty and Jay Lockhart were working hard but there simply wasn't enough help around the ground.

The Demons trailed by 37 points after three quarters and despite the win likely being out of reach, Casey still had plenty to play for as percentage may become a factor in the race for a top-two finish.

Casey limited the bleeding in the final term, eventually falling by 45 points, 13.13 (91) to 6.10 (46).

Corey Wagner's relentless attack never wavered - he and Tom Bugg collected 28 disposals each - while Jay Lockhart (22 disposals, 2 goals) never gave up.

Tim Smith missed his chances in front of goal, but he presented well and gave a contest in the air all day.

On an otherwise dour day for Casey, former Dandenong Stingray Tom Freeman made an impressive VFL debut.

He competed hard and his second and third efforts stood out in the trying conditions.

Entering the final round, Casey (14-3) sits on top of the ladder, but a loss to Williamstown (12-5) on Saturday afternoon at Casey Fields could see the Demons drop to third.

In what is an extremely tight top-three, a win will guarantee Casey the minor premiership, but if Richmond and Geelong win and Casey lose, the Demons will fall out of the allimportant top-two.

The Rays score a perfect 10

By Hayley Wildes It wasn't easy, but when the game was there to be won, the Dandenong Stingrays answered the challenge and claimed their 10th win on the trot in typically tough Ballarat conditions on Saturday afternoon against the Geelong Falcons.

The Falcons came out firing and had the Rays on the back foot as their aggressive attack on the ball paid dividends early. Uncharacteristically, the Rays were unable to lock down in defence and at quarter time, trailed by three goals to one.

Dandenong peppered the goals but couldn't convert its early second quarter dominance, and when Oscar Brownless kicked truly at the 16-minute mark of the term, the Falcons held a two-goal lead.

Second-gamer Cody Weightman slotted a set shot from a tight angle - his first goal in TAC Cup footy - with just over four minutes remaining in the term to give the Rays an important lift heading into half-time. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

The Rays finally kicked into gear in the third term, playing the type of attacking and ruthless football fans have become accustomed to this season.

The leaders stood up as Campbell Hustwaite and Bailey Williams took control of the game. Hustwaite continued to throw his body at the footy relentlessly and did plenty of heavy lifting at stoppages.

Dandenong owned the third term; holding the Falcons goalless, while scoring three of their own.

Majors to Zac Foot, Sam Sturt and Finlay Bayne had the Rays 12 points up at the final break.

The fourth quarter was a battle of attrition as neither team was able to score the goal they so desperately craved. That was until Falcon - and possible number one pick - Sam Walsh stepped to the fore and put through a classy goal from just inside 50, reducing the margin to six points.

With the game on a knife's edge, the crowd was treated to the 'Sam Sturt Show' in the final

The Rays recorded their 10th win in a row over the weekend. 181553 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS three-and-a-half minutes.

In just his second game of TAC Cup footy, the surprise-packet forward proved to be the game-winner. Two goals - a roving snap, followed by a set shot after out-marking two opponents - in less than two minutes gave the Rays an 18-point win, 7.13 (55) to 5.7 (37).

Captain Campbell Hustwaite, Lachlan Young and Bailey Williams impressed, while

Sam Sturt's three second-half goals were ultimately the difference.

The Rays (14-1), who boast a 10-game winning streak and the minor premiership, incredibly haven't lost a game since April.

In what should be a great test on the eve of the finals, Dandenong faces the third-placed Sandringham Dragons at Trevor Barker Beach Oval on Saturday morning.
