Here’s cheers to local beer The amber ale will be flowing at the Great Australian Beer Festival in Geelong in January. After not going ahead this year due to the pandemic, the festival will be back to showcase some of the region’s best beers. Director Kieran Blood and the GABF team are working on making sure the festival returns with a bang. “We are working hard behind the scenes to ensure GABF 2022 is the best and brightest yet. With a new partnership with the BeerFest Australia brand, we have a team that have already delivered six successful COVID-safe events. We can’t wait to see you all sipping, sampling and socialising again.” The festival will celebrate the Geelong region’s burgeoning beer industry with a smorgasbord of local artisan brews along with wines, seltzers, gins and cocktails. Blackman’s Brewery will be one of the local breweries involved with the event, which will run across two days. Renn Blackman said they were pretty excited to be back at the festival. “It’s a local festival and it’s good to interact with people and share our beers. It’ll be pretty cool to be among a big crowd of people. “It’s been a pretty tough year.” Tara Murray

A roadblock for tourism By Tara Murray The postponement of the Cadel Evans Great Ocean Road Race is another blow for the tourism industry, according to tourism chief Brett Ince. Race organiser Visit Victoria announced the popular event would not go ahead in January after it was advised that the WorldTour Teams will not be able to travel to Australia for January’s elite cycling calendar due to national quarantine challenges.

The 2021 event was cancelled because of the pandemic. The race, which was started in 2015, has attracted some of the world’s best cyclists, while also bringing a number of tourists to the area. Tourism Geelong and Bellarine executive director Brett Ince said postponing the event was another blow for the tourist industry which has been hit hard the past two years. “The event is a big one for the area, as it’s an international event,” he said. “It will have a significant impact on the area

[it not going ahead] and it’s disappointing that it can’t go ahead. “I know the event organiser exhausted all avenues and we’re hoping there will be further opportunities for the event in late 2022.” Mr Ince said there had been significant challenges for the region, with several large events either cancelled or postponed as a result of the pandemic. He said many events that were scheduled for early next year were also still to be confirmed. “A lot of domestic events are likely to be on

a smaller scale and reimagined,” Mr Ince said. “The impact hasn’t just been events like the Cadel event. “Business events, large scale events and weddings, they all have a significant impact.” Visit Victoria chief executive Brendan McClements said the race’s postponement was a disappointing result for organisers and the communities along the Surf Coast. “Visit Victoria is currently exploring opportunities to hold an international cycling event later in 2022,” Mr McClements said.

COVID cases continue to grow By Tara Murray COVID-19 cases in the greater Geelong region continue to cause concern. The region recorded 16 new cases on Thursday, the second time in three days it had recorded that many cases. It means there are more than 80 active cases in the region. It comes as the state recorded 1638 cases on Thursday, the second highest total throughout the pandemic. Among the new local exposure sites is Geelong Arena. City Hall confirmed a positive COVID-19 case attended the arena on Monday.

In a statement released on Wednesday, community life director Robyn Stevens said the positive case had attended the site between 9am and 2.30pm on October 4. “The city has restricted access to Geelong Arena for a deep clean, after a community member who attended the facility was confirmed as a positive COVID-19 case,“ the statement said. “The individual had attended Geelong Arena via the Victoria Street entrance on Monday 4 October. The eastern (Victoria Street) section of the facility … is now closed and cleaning and disinfection work has begun. “The city has contacted all tenants, contractors and employees who attended that

section of Geelong Arena during the potential exposure period. “They have been asked to get tested for COVID-19 and to isolate while they await further instructions from the Department of Health.” Meanwhile, greater Geelong has broken through the 90 per cent barrier of people receiving their first vaccine dose according to new data. Australian government health data, released on Monday, showed that 90.6 per of people over the age of 15 in greater Geelong had received at least their first dose. At the same time 61.4 per cent of people have

received their second dose. The Surf Coast last week became the second local government area in Victoria to pass 70 per cent of double dosed. As of Monday, 71.8 per cent of people over the age of 15 in the area are fully vaccinated. Queenscliffe, which has been the leader throughout much of the vaccine roll out, sits at 87.7 per cent double dosed. Both local government areas have more than 95 per cent of people over the age of 15 with at least one vaccine dose. Overall, 82.3 per cent of people over the age of 15 in Victoria have received their first dose, while 52.6 per cent are fully vaccinated.

Creative talents explore the outdoors Aireys Inlet Primary School pupils have turned into movie creators as part of a Regional Arts Victoria program in schools. The six month program resulted in Rebecca Hosking and Scarlet Sykes-Hesterman visiting the school to create learning programs and materials about the film industry throughout the medium of stop motion animation. School principal Jennifer Abel said the pupils absolutely loved the project. “It is something fun for the kids after the last 18 months, where a lot has been

pulled out from under them,” she said. “It is something quite different to experience and Rebecca and Scarlet have worked with the kids and it has been absolutely fantastic. “It’s been something the kids have looked forward to and it has helped keep them on track.” Ms Abel said it had been really good to link the program with one of the core topics they had been studying, sustainability. As part of the filming, pupils had been able to go to the nearby beach and sanctuary.

“The kids haven’t been able to go on excursions,” she said. “We want to send a message to others about sustainability. What they’ve been able to do is quite creative.” The school had planned to have a big launch of the films, but that is set to be online due to the pandemic. The stop motion animation of marine creatures by the grade five and six students will be entered in the BoardRiders Sustainability Challenge.

The world’s most advanced research centre for next generation vehicles will be built at Deakin Univeristy’s Waurn Ponds campus, the state government has announced. The university, along with support from the state government, will create a $13 million Next Generation Simulator project which will allow students, researchers and industry to do cost-effective prototype testing, engineering and commercial product design of driver and driverless cars. Students will receive training in using motion technology platforms and research on driver- based and driverless vehicles. The facility will also house the European-built S3 Motion Simulator Platform for expert drivers to test products in a virtual environment. Partnerships with Ford Australia and Ansible Motion will also make sure locally-made vehicle products are commercially viable and internationally competitive as well. Construction is set to begin in November and finish early next year. Deakin University vice-chancellor Iain Martin said the funding would be a big boost for the university. “The government’s investment will help Deakin provide compelling virtual worlds where students and engineers can develop and test cost-effective products with real-world application,“ Professor Martin said. “As a bespoke training platform, the Next Generation Motion Simulator Platform will enhance Australia’s sovereign capability in mobility technologies and create new jobs for regional Victoria.” The state government has contributed $5 million to the project. Higher Education Minister Gayle Tierney said the simulator would enhance existing skills and knowledge in vehicle manufacturing. Tara Murray

Labor makes a pledge to build indoor pool in Drysdale An indoor aquatic centre will be built at the Drysdale Sports Precinct if the Labor Party wins next year’s federal election. On Wednesday, the party committed $20 million to build an all year-round facility, including a 50-metre indoor pool with movable floor and dry spaces for community functions, classes and rehab. Currently, there are plans with for a new 50-metre outdoor pool after the City Hall endorsed concept plans for the facility and put forward funding in its draft 2021-22 budget.

The federal Liberal Party has previously committed $10 million to the outdoor pool project. Federal opposition spokeswoman for infrastructure and regional development Catherine King said Labor’s pledge would help deliver a first-class aquatic centre for the Bellarine. “This commitment means that the Bellarine will finally have a top-quality, aquatic centre ready to be used by the entire community all year round,” she said. “Aquatic centres are vital community

infrastructure heavily used by people of all ages. It’s important these facilities are built properly to maximise community usage and maximise the value of the significant public funding investment. “Unlike an outdoor pool that is only used for lap swimming a few months each year, this will be a high-tech, year-round facility suitable for the entire community.“ Corangamite MP Libby Coker said she was thrilled to secure funding for an indoor pool. “This is a good day for young kids on the Bellarine who are learning to swim, residents

of all ages trying to keep fit, and people doing rehabilitation, or with disabilities,“ she said. “They can all now have access to a quality aquatic centre, including an indoor pool and allied health services. “A contained aquatic centre, where you can control heat loss, is also important to building sustainable local infrastructure.” “Everyone on the Bellarine deserves an aquatic centre and indoor pool that they can use year-round.” Tara Murray Friday, 8 October, 2021 GEELONG INDEPENDENT 3

Surf Coast crime on rise despite statewide fall locations, with Torquay recording the highest number of offences (628). Other theft, criminal damage, stealing from a motor vehicle and breaching family violence orders were the most common crimes, and were all up on the previous 12 months. There was also a massive increase in family violence incidents, up from 152 to 184, an increase of 21.1 per cent. While crime increased in the Surf Coast, the Borough of Queenscliffe recorded the lowest number of offences since 2013.

Crime offences increased in the Surf Coast, but dropped in both greater Geelong and the Borough of Queenscliffe in the 12 months to June, according to new data. Crime Statistics Agency figures for the 12 months to June, showed that despite crime dropping across the state, there was an increase in the Surf Coast area. Crime in the area was up 8.3 per cent on the previous 12 months, from 1345 offences to 1456 offences. The statistics showed crime was up in most

There were just 99 offences recorded in the 12 months to June, down from 115 in the previous 12 months. Just over half the incidents occurred in Queenscliff, while there were 45 offences in Point Lonsdale and four on Swan Island. Criminal damage was the most common offence. Overall offences in greater Geelong dropped by 6.8 per per cent, from 22,387 in the previous 12 months to 21,295 at the end of June. There was a drop in crime in Geelong, but

it still remained the highest in the police area. Corio and Norlane, which both recorded increases in offences, were second and third. Breach of family violence order was the top criminal offence in greater Geelong, followed by other theft, stealing from a motor vehicle, criminal damage and stealing from a retail store. Family violence also increased in greater Geelong, up 8.1 per cent. Tara Murray

Aged care centre set for upgrades

Walking with heart kids By Tara Murray The Two Feet and A Heartbeat fundraising walk in Geelong will take on more significance this year. The walk, organised by HeartKids, is back after having to go online last year due to the pandemic, and this year includes a community market. The walk, which raises money for HeartKids, allows families to pay tribute to their heart kids and have a moment of reflection for Heart Angels. The event will include a four kilometre walk in the honour of the four lives lost each week to congenital heart disease (CHD) or an eight kilometre event in honour of the eight babies born each week with CHD.

Hannah Pearl has taken on organising the event this year, which has been rescheduled for November 28. Her daughter Madison was the event’s ambassador in 2019. “I decided to reinvent the day and make it a big day out. For the first time we’ll have a market,” she said. Ms Pearl said having the market would allow food van owners, who have had a tough 18 months, to get back out and feed the community while also raising money for a good cause. Ms Pearl said the group is very close to her family’s heart but wasn’t well known in the area. She said she had heard so many different stories from families in the area while organising it which had touched her. Her daughter Madison was born with a heart

condition and required heart surgery at seven days old. The four-year-old heads to school next year. “The people in Geelong are a close knit community,” she said. “When Madison was born, I wasn’t able to go back to work. The only support we could get was from HeartKids, it was a family as such. “It’s been amazing when talking to so many new people who didn’t know about heart kids until now. “I want to raise awareness, so people know that it is here.” The event, which will be held in Mount Duneed, will also include face painting, an animal farm, live music, market stalls and raffles.

Aged care facilities in greater Geelong and the Surf Coast are among those that will benefit from a program to upgrade regional aged care facilities. Last week, the state government announced that 21 public aged care facilities had been successful in applying for the $10 million rural residential aged care facilities renewal program. The renewal program supports improvement projects to deliver significant enhancements for aged care residents and help meet the growing demand for services in regional and rural Victoria. The funding will help upgrade Wi-Fi to link to nurse call and electronic care systems at McKellar Centre and Percy Baxter, Blakiston and Alan David Lodges, which are all run by Barwon Health. The Lorne Community Hospital, which is run by the Great Ocean Road Health, will be upgraded to include improvements to the layout and workflow of laundry including the installation of new benches and sink. Disability, Ageing and Carers Minister Luke Donnellan said the program was was about providing older Victorians with access to the very best services, amenities and care. “This is about ensuring aged care facilities in regional and rural Victoria have the vital infrastructure and equipment they need to continue to care for their local community,“ he said. “There is no more worthwhile investment – helping to rebuild our economy, while also ensuring the quality of aged care for all Victorians, no matter where they live.

Appeal strives to help feed those struggling in Geelong Food relief charities across Geelong have reported a surge in people seeking help during the COVID-19 pandemic. According to the Give Where you Live Foundation, which runs the Feed Geelong Appeal, 71 per cent of food relief organisations that took part in a recent survey reported a surge in clients over the past 18 months. The foundation launched its Feed Geelong Appeal last week, which aims to raise money to help award grants to Geelong food assistance network.

People shouldn’t have to worry where their next meal is coming from

- Bethany Long

Food is something we don’t often think about until it isn’t there,” the foundation’s Bethany Long said. “The clients are the homeless, people who have lost work due to COVID-19.

“You’ve got international students who couldn’t get government funding and a lot of asylum seekers needing support to get food. “There’s others who are out of work and need help for the first time.” Ms Long said as well as seeing more clients needing food, many food relief organisations were going through their own struggles with restrictions, lack of the volunteers and the pandemic meaning they needed to pivot their services. Ms Long said the group was keen to

continue its mission to make sure that every one in the Geelong region has access to food. “It is one of the most basic human rights,” she said. “People shouldn’t have to worry where their next meal is coming from, especially in a city as prosperous as Geelong.

Getting Geelong Students Back in the Classroom

There is no guidebook to continuing education during a global pandemic. But despite the challenges, everyone involved has shown incredible resilience. Students have done so well that Victoria topped the NAPLAN results this year, registering huge improvements on previous years. I want to congratulate them all for their hard work. Now that the vaccine rollout is hitting its stride, Minister for Education James Merlino has announced a stage return to the classroom in regional Victoria.

To make sure the return to the school is as safe as possible, we have invested in 51,000 air puriﬁers to be installed in classrooms and prevent the virus from spreading. We’re also investing in shade sails, to create more outdoor learning spaces. This week we announced the biggest boost in individual learning support in Victorian history. It will mean extending the tutoring program that has successfully deployed thousands of tutors across Victoria, making sure students who have struggled with remote learning aren’t left behind. We’re making sure that Victoria’s reputation as “The Education State” continues well into the future. Our students deserve nothing less.

On Monday, Prep to Grade 2 and ﬁnal year students have returned to the classroom full time. From Wednesday, Year 11 students are also back in the classroom.

The magic continues Dazzling Dan the Magic Man has continued to wow audiences throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Dan Bingham, who is the vice-president of the Australian Institute of Magic, would normally have his weeks filled with children’s and adults’ parties, functions, schools, agricultural shows and shows at retirement villages and aged care facilities, but this has not been possible under lockdowns. But, the full-time professional magician has been able to continue his business after receiving a $4000 arts and culture COVID-19 recovery grant from Geelong council. The grant allowed him to set up a home studio to live stream his magic shows. “I had a month of magic shows lined up in August and many would have been cancelled had it not been for the grant,” Dan said. “Nursing homes all over the Geelong region were deeply impacted by lockdowns and

unable to have visitors on-site, but I was still able to connect with residents by live streaming my shows.” The council has helped to support performers across the city by committing $510,000 to help those in the arts sector. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said it’s vital the council continues to support its creative community, which has been hit hard by the COVID-19 pandemic. “The pandemic has had a devastating impact on our cultural sector, through the cancellation of gigs and events, the closure of cultural facilities, and the overall economic downturn,” he said. “The grants have helped support our creative community and artists like Dan to keep performing and safely bring a smile to people’s faces.” Tara Murray

Held each year in October, Sustainable House Day provides an opportunity to learn how to improve the thermal comfort and energy efficiency of your home. This year the event will be held online across two days to allow people to tune into as many of the eight seminars as possible. Among the activities as part of the 13th edition of the event are virtual house tours narrated by homeowners, extensive online resources, question and answers with home owners, and seminars to help with selecting building materials, going all-electric and cost-effective retrofitting. Event co-ordinator Vicki Perrett said they had been asked to extend the event

to a whole weekend to allow people to visit more houses. “Now because of COVID restrictions, we’ve done just that,” she said. “Our online event is a rich learning experience that is open to everyone. There are four exemplar properties and a range of case study seminars to set people up for sustainable housing success.” Geelong Sustainability, which runs the event with support from the Geelong council, has produced preview slideshows for each house as well as 10-minute video tours narrated by the homeowners. Participants will be able to submit questions online before and during the event and each session will be able to be watched afterwards. Details: geelongsustainability.org.au/shd21

I think the Australian Bird Guide book is a wonderful resource. I also think it’s important to put the welfare of the birds first. It’s important not to scare and disturb birds especially if they are nesting.

When did you first start getting into birds and birdwatching? I’ve loved birds since I can remember. I think I’ve spent most of my life looking up at trees or at the sky. In suburban Melbourne I remember seeing a barn owl in the park behind my house when I was about 10 and I was fascinated. My dad was a very keen bushwalker and we always went on family holidays to Wilsons Promontory, Port Fairy or Phillip Island, where there were many birds and other animals to observe. Did your love of birds snowball from there? I love going to remote places where I can escape into nature and inevitably there are birds to spot as well. Birds are beautiful, they come in many different colours, shapes, sizes; they construct amazing nests, some species can be commonly seen and others terribly elusive, they have such a range of songs, and can live in such a variety of habitats. Birds can be sedentary and stay in the same place all year around, and other species are migratory and fly thousands of kilometres every year to different habitats. Some species live in the remotest deserts, and others in the Antarctic, and they adapt their behaviour and physiology to enable survival. I don’t like all birds. Common starlings, seagulls, ravens, common mynas are becoming more plentiful and upsetting the balance for smaller species. Some of these species compete with native species for nesting hollows and food. I wouldn’t be averse to culling some species, which is something I never thought I would say. When seagulls kill hooded plovers on the beach, I want to cull the gulls myself.

What birds are still on your bucket list? There are approximately 898 species of birds in Australia, and I’ve seen around 490, so there are 400 species still on my bucket list. I would love to see a palm cockatoo, sooty owl, Pacific baza and a cassowary, so another trip to Far North Queensland is definitely required. What makes the Bellarine special in terms of bird-watching? There are lakes, beaches, farmlands, some remnant bushlands, so a variety of birds can be seen. Having said that the new housing estates around Connewarre, Curlewis and Banks Rd, Mannerim are a worry due to loss of habitat, and the increased human activity on beaches has certainly affected the variety of birdlife that can be observed around these parts. There is just so much environmental destruction happening in Australia for short term gain. Jennifer Carr at Eyre Telegraph Station in Western Australia.

What has been your most memorable birding experience? I was amazed to spot an American kestrel and a woodpecker in Hollywood, USA. Instead of going to Disneyland I walked around the local neighbourhood and saw an Allen’s hummingbird and a mockingbird. I must be the only person ever to go to Anaheim and

consciously not go to Disneyland in favour of birdwatching. Any tips for novice twitchers? Joining a local bird group is essential when starting out, as you can learn so much from the experienced twitchers. Local knowledge in these groups is shared freely, which is very

What are your favourite places to see birds? Not necessarily on the Bellarine. If I have a day off work and no commitments (if Covid allows), I usually go to Western Treatment Plant, Anakie Gorge, Stoney Creek Picnic Area in the Brisbane Ranges, Lake Murdeduke or Anglesea Heath. If I only have half a day free, I go to the Ocean Grove Nature Reserve, Blue Waters Lake, Lake Victoria, Connewarre or Curlewis.

Viva Energy’s Gas Terminal Project Community Meeting October 11th – Focus on Safety NOW ONLINE

Safety is central to Viva Energy’s plans for a new terminal to bring LNG into Refinery Pier via ship. We will build on our experience and long track record of responsible operations at Geelong Refinery to safely build and operate the proposed floating gas terminal, investing in important new infrastructure for the benefit of Geelong and all Victorians. Visionary Energy Hub for Geelong The Gas Terminal is at the centre of Viva Energy’s plan to transform the Geelong Refinery into a visionary energy hub to support Victoria’s evolving energy needs. Other proposed projects focus on alternative fuels like hydrogen, and renewable energy and emissions reduction – including a solar energy farm next to the refinery. The Energy Hub investments will help to secure the future of the refinery and its 700+ jobs. The gas terminal project alone means construction jobs for up to 150 people and permanent positions for 50–70 more – bringing new skills, economic activity and opportunities for Geelong.

Gas for Victoria The Gas Terminal will bring in around 40 Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) ships each year to boost natural gas supply in south-east Australia. Victoria needs a new source of gas to replace declining supply and avoid projected shortages in coming years.

Focus on safety We know that safety is an important topic for local residents and neighbours. As an experienced operator of Major Hazard Facilities like the Geelong Refinery, we are confident that we can safely build and operate the new floating gas terminal.

Two million Victorian households rely on gas for heating, hot water and cooking. And gas is essential for many businesses too – 50 per cent of gas used in Geelong supports local industry.

We will hold a community information session online on October 11th to discuss safety including the extensive hazard and risk studies which are underway. Local residents will have the opportunity to talk to the experts, ask questions and raise any issues of concern (details below).

Gas supports the growing use of renewable energy, and will be a critical part of the energy mix for many years to come.

NEWS Mosquito treatment program update This spring and summer, we’re likely to experience an increase in mosquitoes as our treatment program focusses on ground control around townships while we seek a 10-year permit to continue treatments in wetlands. We’ve applied to the Commonwealth Government to continue to conduct treatments in Ramsar listed wetlands in our region including the Bellarine peninsula, while our ground treatments outside the wetlands continue until May. People, other animals, and the general environment are not adversely affected by the treatments as we only use products approved by the Australia Pesticides and Veterinary Medicines Authority for mosquito control. We target mosquitos in their larval stage to prevent adult mosquitoes from emerging but once emerged, we are unable to treat them.

Mosquitoes are a natural part of our region’s ecosystem and while it’s not possible to eliminate them, you can take steps to protect yourself and your family. When mosquito levels are high, wear clothing that is light coloured and loose ﬁtting, covering your arms, legs and feet, and use an effective insect repellent. Around your home, remove water in blocked gutters, bird baths, stagnant ponds, old tyres, pot plant bases, buckets and toys.

When: Tuesday 26 October Time: 6pm Where: COVID-19 restrictions will determine if an in-person meeting can be held and whether public attendance will be possible. You will ﬁnd details about the meeting and can view it live at geelongaustralia.com.au/meetings The report provides an overview of our major achievements during the 2020–21 ﬁnancial year, as well as a summary of how we’re performing against our council plan, annual budget and the Local Government Performance Reporting Framework.

WADAWURRUNG COUNTRY Friday, 8 October, 2021 GEELONG INDEPENDENT 9

FRIDAY FEATURE GEELONGINDY.COM.AU Corio Soccer Club has gone from having zero kids registered at the club to a thriving junior base. Janakan Seemampillai finds out how the Eagles made their mark on the Geelong football community.

Juniors help Eagles to soar H

ow does a sports club go from zero juniors two years ago to 120 in a COVID-impacted year? Just ask Corio Soccer Club president Mario Gregorio, who recently celebrated the fifth anniversary of his reign by praising the enormous work done by volunteers to grow his club. The Eagles are one of Geelong’s most community-minded clubs, and now boast nearly 200 members after working closely with locals to grow their brand. “Firstly, it has been extremely positive to see new individuals joining in the activities of the club,” praised Gregorio, in a heartfelt message to club members. “Whilst there has always been support around the fringes of games, what was encouraging to see this year was how an increasing number of individuals have stepped up even further to help with canteen and bar activities during junior and senior games. “This has enabled myself on senior match days to focus primarily on player welfare before and during games.“ Gregorio highlighted the likes of Dom Schillings, Ant Andrianos, Serge Di Blasi, Slavko Pantelic, Zoli Luczo, Pauli Grull, Miki and Eleanor Potara and Tanya and Jay Critchley as key players in running the club. The Eagles have traditionally struggled to attract juniors and as recently as two years ago, had only senior men’s teams. Led by Gregorio and his committee, the club made a concentrated effort to attract young players – boys and girls – and their families to Hume Reserve, with a focus on making football accessible and welcoming. The club has especially embraced the local refugee community, who have thrived at Hume Reserve. With the cost of playing football spiralling out of control, Gregorio ensured playing for Corio was affordable which was a key selling point for a club who is based in a low socio-economic area of Geelong. “With an increasing number of members and juniors, along with promotion to state league 1 for our seniors, we have seen our sponsorship grow 300 percent in the last five years,” explained Gregorio. “Sponsorship has been used to ensure our fees are kept as low as possible for our junior base to continue to grow.” The plan has reaped rich dividends, with Corio now boasting an impressive junior base, one of the largest in Geelong. “There has been a marked shift in increased junior participation at Corio,” explained Gregorio. “From zero juniors in 2019 to 120 in season 2021, it has been a tremendous effort by the junior committee involving Slavko Pantelic, Mika and Eleanor Potara, Tanya and Jay Critchley as well as our dedicated junior coaches.” One of the other challenges the Eagles faced in getting families to Hume Reserve was the dilapidated state of their facilities. The club have long struggled to obtain funding to improve their Bell Park-based home, but thanks to the work done by the committee, they secured nearly $3 million this year to build new facilities which will be ready early next year according to Gregorio. “Great strides have been underway between the club, City of Greater Geelong and the Victorian state Labor government to ensure we have the funds to complete our $2.8 million clubroom and change room development, which will be completed on time in mid-March 2022,” he said. “The club has done a miraculous job in securing funds in different capacities throughout the year to ensure the funds are available to ensure the development will be completed.” With the popularity of the Matildas and 10 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 8 October, 2021

the 2023 World Cup coming Down Under, Gregorio is also keen to build the club’s women’s program, which will be significantly easier now with better facilities. The club has tried to get a women’s team up and running for a number of years but has always fallen short on numbers. Gregorio, though, is keen to use the same philosophy that has been successful for them over the last two years, building their girls’ program at the Mini Roos and junior level, with the plan for those girls to form the core of a women’s team in the future. “We are going to concentrate from the bottom up. Our goal is to get more female junior teams in Mini Roos, under-9s, under-11s and under-13s. “We have tried unsuccessfully in the last five

’’

years to put together a women’s senior team, but the committee has decided the best way forward is to build a senior team from our junior girls’ program. “If we get inundated with requests for a senior women’s team, then yes we will definitely look at it for 2022.” Gregorio expressed his deep gratitude to everyone at Hume Reserve, and insists the future is bright as the Eagles continue to soar as a community leading organisation. “Once football is back up to full speed in 2022, we can look back briefly to this shortened year, but predominantly forward, with the hopeful knowledge that players, mums and dads, supporters, sponsors and our local community, have a wonderful club to acknowledge and enjoy.”

The Guide ADAM & POH’S MALAYSIA IN AUSTRALIA SBS Food,Thursday, 8.30pm

Like cookies and cream, garlic with pasta and cheese with potato, could this be a match made in foodie heaven? Former MasterChef stars and stalwarts of the Aussie food scene Adam Liaw and Poh Ling Yeow unite for this new series. The fun-loving chefs explore the best of Malaysian cuisine in Australia, and how the two cultures intertwine, across six episodes. Adam and Poh begin in Tasmania, with some of the best seafood in the world, as Adam dives for abalone and sea urchin. Expect an Aussie twist on Malaysian favourites, such as beef rendang, in this lip-smacking travelogue.

CSI: VEGAS 10, Sunday, 9pm

LOVE ISLAND AUSTRALIA Nine, Monday, 8.45pm

Whether you are a diehard James Norton fan, a convert to the charms of relative newcomer Tom Brittney, or an admirer of Robson Green (pictured, right, with Brittney), there’s something for everyone in Grantchester, even if you pine for the old days of Norton. As this British period drama has developed over five seasons, its charisma and heart have stuck around, even as much-loved actors have departed. In this season, Brittney really lays on the charm. Tonight, in the second episode of the fresh instalment, Will (Brittney) and Geordie (Green) negotiate a complex family dispute involving a local adoption agency. Storm clouds gather for Leonard (Al Weaver) when a threatening letter arrives.

Good things do come to those who can’t let go of their favourite TV characters from yesteryear. More than 20 years since the original CSI: Crime Scene Investigation premiered and ran for 15 seasons, the sequel has landed. Two of the series’ fan favourites, detectives Gil Grissom and Sara Sidle (William Petersen and Jorja Fox, both pictured), are back and appear to be as cosy as ever. In a move that will make fans’ goosebumps even bigger, the show’s original theme song is back and is guaranteed to let loose a flood of memories. Grissom and Sidle arrive to help a team of Sin City-based CSI agents who are facing an existential threat. Everyone looks older, but will it be the same?

Host Sophie Monk returns with her dry wit, megawatt smile and bombshell wardrobe for the third season of this reality dating bonanza, but the same can’t be said for the exotic island location promised in the show’s title – previous seasons have taken place in Mallorca and Fiji. Nevertheless, we’ve all become adept at compromise and adapting during the pandemic, which has closed the door on international travel. In the season three premiere, the gaggle of singles heads to a villa in northern NSW where they hope to find a match and resist the temptation of new potential partners to win the public’s affection, and the $50,000 prize. It’s no small feat.

Foot and leg help to get kids up and running Foot and leg concerns amongst children and teenagers can greatly impact their activities and be of real concern to parents. To highlight the importance of these issues, read on for expert advice from the professionals at Foot and Leg Pain Clinics. “Apart from the usual incidents and accidents kids may experience on the sporting field or in the playground, there are some common growth and development concerns that parents should seek advice about, especially if problems are ongoing or if pain, mobility or balance issues are present,” says Dr David Kavanagh, musculoskeletal podiatrist at the Geelong West clinic. Some of the common concerns Dr Kavanaugh addresses includes:

Heel pain / Sever’s disease If your child has heel pain, it definitely requires investigation. Commonly referred to as Sever’s Disease, this can cause significant disruption to children’s physical activity.

Flat feet Contrary to popular belief, the appearance of flat feet in children is not usually cause for concern. However, if there is associated pain, balance issues or excessive rolling inward of the ankles, parents should seek professional advice. Foot and leg issues in children can be addressed to prevent further complications later in life.

Viva Energy is proposing to build a potentially dangerous and polluting gas import terminal in Corio Bay. The terminal would be nearly as high as the giant sky wheel on the Geelong foreshore and the length of Cunningham Pier. Residents in North Shore, North Geelong, Norlane, Rippleside, Geelong West and Corio could be at risk from an accident or incident involving gas tankers. Risks include potential explosion, fire and damage to infrastructure and possible impacts on the Corio Bay marine environment and our access to the Bay. Community group Geelong Renewables Not Gas is hosting an online meeting in which a panel of speakers with expertise in the oil and gas industry, environment and recreational fishing will answer residents’ questions about the risks associated with Viva’s proposal.

Owner Richard Lodge has been climbing for almost 30 years now and is immensely proud of his team and business. “I started as an instructor and helped to construct the centre as a builder, then moved to management and now I’m the owner,” Richard laughs. “People of many different ages and backgrounds can climb together – we always wanted [the Rock] to be a place for people to come together and meet.” Though the last two years have been difficult for everyone, Richard is full of praise for the community and their continued support of the region throughout the pandemic. “The community has been fantastic, it’s what makes the gym what it is,” he says. “The last 18 months they’ve been wonderful, the people just wanted us to be back open so we’d get to see them and help them, and they’d get to join us for a climb.” Utilising social media to keep climbers interested during lockdown, the Rock has been providing at-home training ideas for climbers, as well as selling gear via COVID-safe click and collect methods. During its closure, the Rock has also undergone some upgrades and updates in the gym. Having been heavily involved with community initiatives since its inception, the Rock has sponsored local schools and sporting

clubs with prizes and passes to raise funds for good causes in the region. This year, the Rock is a finalist in the Geelong Business Excellence Awards; their second time involved after receiving a nomination in 2019. “To get nominated again was great and to make it through as a finalist was terrific, I was a bit floored when it came through,” Richard says. “Winning an award wouldn’t change a huge

amount [at the gym] but would definitely solidify the effort we’ve put in through the last two decades and encourage us to keep doing what we’re doing – giving people a fantastic space to climb in, meet people and discover something new.” The Rock Adventure Centre is located at Rear 403 Pakington Street, Newtown. For more information, phone (03) 5221 3101 or visit www.rockadventures.com.au.

Love your car with Darby’s – the perfect choice in paint If you love your car, your pride and joy, it can be devastating if it’s scratched or damaged, right?

Exciting action ahead during summer season LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers With all community competition sport on hold until November, the Tennis Geelong competition committees are busy grading and creating draws for the 181 junior and 113 senior teams for the upcoming 2021-22 summer season. Waurn Ponds is a club that appears to be building again with two new junior teams and an extra senior team. The Ponds have submitted teams for six boys sections and will be hoping for section 1 with a couple of new faces to the competition. On the seniors front, Billy Spicer, Jayson Tomicic and Nicole Mullen will be making the transition from section 1 mixed to section 1 men as they welcome James Brushfield to their ranks. As coach at both Waurn Ponds and Inverleigh, Nicole Mullen would be happy to

see an increase in junior teams at both clubs. Inverleigh will have last summer’s section 6 girls premiers returning to the court and a team of new starters playing their first season. The premiership for section 5 men in the senior competition also went to Inverleigh in the summer, so they will be looking to move up and do well again this season.

Ocean Grove had a small drop off in teams last summer, not doubt due to the pandemic, but they are back to normal with 8 boys and 7 girls teams. The section 1 boys and girls teams both finished in fifth last summer, so they will be hoping for some improvement this season, and put themselves into the finals. In seniors, the Grove will again field teams in the top two men’s grades. The teams this season will look different with a change up to the combinations, and the inclusion of Ari Levinson. The premiership in section 2 mixed last year went to the Grove, and after a reasonable performance in the winter, it would be expected that they will push up to the top grade. It is good to see some of our smaller clubs continue to field teams. Ceres have entered their usual combination, which has been together for more than 12 years. Eastern Districts have the Heap family team

continuing to play, with a couple of new faces coming back after time away from the game to complete the ranks. Barwon Heads would be happy with their team numbers this season. The Heads have two teams registered for the top two men’s sections, with the line-ups remaining largely unchanged and a mixed team returning after missing the 2020-21 summer. The big move is juniors, with 17 teams registered. This eclipses last season’s club record of 14, and sees 20 players starting their first season. The girls continue to build from ground up with 10 new starters, and with good results from both summer and winter seasons the summer section 5 and 6 girls will continue to move up the ranks. In the boys, the Heads will again field a section 1 team with Curtis Fitgerald and Lily Duff filling the void left by Ben Reid and Jordyn Aitken who have aged out.

Busy trade week for Cats By Tara Murray Geelong has had a busy first trade week for a number of different reasons. While the Cats have lost key position player Nathan Kreuger to Collingwood, the club has locked in a number of key parts on and off the field. Kreuger, who made his debut this season playing two games, was traded to the Magpies along with pick 55 in exchange for pick 41. Collingwood football manager Graham Wright had previously told Trade Radio that the Magpies saw Kreuger, who had played as a defender, as a forward and would look to play him at that end of the ground. Geelong list and recruiting manager Stephen Wells said the club wished Kreuger well. “Nathan has made a fantastic contribution to our club, and we’ve enjoyed having him as part of our program.” As of lunchtime on Thursday, no deal had been done to trade the contracted Jordan Clark to Fremantle. While Kreuger has left the Cattery, five players have re-signed for next season. Rhys Stanley, Gary Rohan, Brad Close, Zach Guthrie and Francis Evans have all agreed to 22 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 8 October, 2021

terms to pull on the hoops again next season. Stanley has led the Cats ruck division in recent years, playing 105 games, including 13 finals, since crossing from St Kilda. Rohan has been a key player in the Geelong forward line since crossing from Sydney in 2019. He kicked 32 goals this season, as the Cats made another preliminary final. Close is one of the Cats’ rising stars and cemented his spot in the team this year. In his second season, he played 22 games and 15 goals. Guthrie has played 33 games and kicked two goals since debuting in 2017. The defender, who has been in and out of the side, has played 13 games in 2021, including two finals. Evans broke through for his debut early in the 2021 season, before suffering injury in his second game. The young forward returned to the field late in the season at VFL level. Off-field, the club has added recently retired forward Eddie Betts to the coaching ranks. The mercurial forward hung up the boots at the end of the season after 350 games with Carlton and Adelaide and will be a part-time development coach. Geelong general manager of football Simon

Lloyd said that Betts had seen the game from every angle after originally arriving at Carlton via the rookie list. “His knowledge, wisdom, leadership and experience will be a great asset for our team. Eddie is a great communicator and he is excited to work with our players, Chris and our coaching staff, and everyone involved with the club. We are equally excited that he has chosen to join our club.” Betts said he was looking forward to starting his post-playing career with the Cats. “Geelong is a successful club with a magnificent culture that has always been consistently strong, and I cannot wait to get involved,“ he said. “I’m excited to support the club and I’m looking forward to being able to grow myself as well. Geelong is known for developing people and that is also an exciting element of joining the club. It’s important for players to develop skills in all parts of your life. “Obviously I will spend some time with the forwards, particularly the small forwards, but hope to get across all on-field spaces where the club see they need me.” Betts will begin the part-time role in January.

North Geelong has appointed the experienced Mark Hounslow as its coach for the 2022 Geelong and District Football League season. The club announced on its Facebook page that it had secured Hounslow for the next two seasons. Hounslow comes to the club having had a long career as a player and coach. Most recently had been involved with the Western Jets in the NAB League, while he had held several roles with Coburg’s VFL side previously. Hounslow is no stranger to the Geelong football scene. He was an assistant coach at Grovedale, Geelong West and Newtown and Chilwell in the past 10 years. He also coached at Geelong College. In its post, the club said that Hounslow was the perfect fit for the club’s developing side and he was excited to take on the new challenge. The Magpies were sitting in 12th when the season was called off early due to lockdowns as part of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Magpies had four wins from their 12 matches. Hounslow, who has played football in Queensland as well, replaces Ayden George as coach. George, a playing coach, decided mid season he would step down from the coaching role after a tough few years with COVID-19 not allowing a full season the last two years. George was appointed coach in late 2018 having previously played VFL with North Ballarat. The club recently announced that Jeff Czajkowski had been reappointed as women’s coach. Tara Murray

Women primed for new season By Tara Murray Becky Webster is hoping to back up a breakout season for Geelong in the upcoming AFLW season. Webster, who is coming into her fourth season at the club, was a star for the Cats in their midfield last season and finished third in the club’s best and fairest. Webster and the rest of the playing group returned to the track last week to start their pre-season. “It has been great to see the girls and have a kick of the footy,” she said. “We are so lucky to be able to train together and go out there and tackle. “Everyone is pumped. It’s been a few weeks back now and everyone is looking great and very cohesive.” “There’s been a few new girls who have added a new dimension.”

Being able to be around their teammates is a welcome relief for the side, with restrictions meaning they were limited what training they could do by themselves. Webster was among the lucky ones who played in the club’s VFL side and was able to play football throughout much of the year. The Cats made the grand final, but it was later cancelled due to the pandemic. “It was good to have a kick and be able to play some VFL towards the back end of the season and finals,“ she said. “It was good to get out there and have a kick. The AFLW season is quite short and it was good to get some extra games in. “Not being able to play the grand final sucked, but I’m looking forward to seeing some of the VFL girls coming into the AFL season.” The VFL games formed part of Webster’s focus on her fitness as she looks to take her

game to the next level. She said that was one of the main reasons for her development in the previous 12 months. “Some more time in the midfield also helped,” she said. “I was able to get my hands on the footy a bit more and help the team out. I was able to grow my fitness range. “It’s something I’m looking to do this year. I want to be combative and still be able to get

the fitness up and burst through the packs.” As well as stepping up on the field, Webster will also take on more of a leadership role for the young team. The 20-year-old said it was a bit different from being the youngest player. “It’s been four seasons and it has been great seeing players coming through. “It’s about setting standards about what it is like to play at Geelong and I want to be a great role model.” Webster said the focus under new coach Dan Lowther was about working on fitness while building relationships. The Cats finished the 2021 season with just one win and finished ahead of only Gold Coast. “We will be getting lots of touches of the football and building on those relationships,” Webster said. “We’ll look to build over the next few weeks.”

Calder Cannons’ up-and-comer Georgie Prespakis has won her second straight NAB League best and fairest.

Another honour for Cats young gun Geelong young gun Georgie Prespakis has another honour, winning her second straight NAB League best and fairest. The 18-year-old, who was taken in this year’s AFLW draft at pick two, was rewarded for a dominant season in the midfield for the Calder Cannons, blitzing the competition with seven best-on-ground performances from just nine appearances. She topped the tally with 21 votes, seven votes clear of Northern Knights player Ava Jordan in second. The midfielder averaged 23 disposals and more than eight tackles for the season. With Georgie’s sister Madison Prespakis having won the award in 2018, it makes it three years in a row that a member of the Prespakis family has received the coveted accolade. Georgie Prespakis said the award has given her confidence as she prepares for her first season in the AFLW with Geelong. “It was really nice to top off last year like

that, and now I’m just really looking forward to moving on to see what I can do at the Cats,” she said. “Being selected as captain [of the Calder Cannons] made me step up. I knew a lot of the girls would look up to me and I wanted to be able to give them extra support. “I think probably the biggest challenge [this season] was going from Calder Cannons to playing VFL games [for Essendon]. I realised it’s a step above in terms of adjusting to body contact. “I’ve also worked on my skills, not just getting the ball and putting it on the boot but actually hitting targets.” In July, Prespakis was taken by the Cats with the second overall pick in the AFLW draft on the back of her stand-out form for the Cannons and in the VFLW at Essendon. Across five matches for the Bombers Prespakis averaged 17 disposals and more than 10 tackles per game.

Her stint at Essendon included three finals matches, including a semi-final against Collingwood where she laid 13 tackles in a seven-point loss at Victoria Park. With preseason underway for the 2022 AFLW season, Prespakis said she’s settling into the next phase of her life in Geelong and has enjoyed having Cats star Nina Morrison around at training. “I moved down here around September, and it’s actually been a lot better than I thought, I’ve adapted really well,“ she said. “It’s such a big difference with age [in the AFLW], in the NAB league there’s maybe someone just two or three year older, but now it can be like 10 years. “I’m hoping I can fit into the midfield, have a really good preseason and earn my spot.” The AFLW season has been postponed and will now begin January next year.

The fishing at the moment is white hot with the whole regions fishing producing top captures. Landbased anglers off St Helens rocks are securing some quality snapper nearly every day at the moment with the average fish around the four kilograms mark. After a few days of rough weather is has certainly stirred it all up for them and they are feeding well with pilchards and squid the standout baits and fishing on a tide change being a key factor to success. Australian salmon and tailor are still patrolling the Geelong waterfront at the moment cleaning up any lure or soft plastic in sight and still holding in big numbers. Soft plastics are very effective or if the tailor are thick try throwing around a few hardbodies and upsize your leader to avoid being snipped. Calamari have been a little tough out of Clifton Springs over the past week, probably due to the weather making it all dirty but towards Queenscliff it is on fire. The clean water from the ocean is coming through allowing the squid to hunt easier and there sure is plenty out there. Fishing the deep water in the bight has seen anglers land some monster squid on both artificial jigs and natural baits. Offshore Barwon heads has continued to fish very well for both snapper and gummy sharks. Many anglers over the weekend flocked offshore in search of one of these with many having great success, especially on the snapper. Fishing the 40 metre mark has been a very productive location with anglers landing large numbers of snapper to six kilograms and beyond with a fair share of anglers boating a bag limit.
