Rock up and rock on Brimbank guitarists can embrace their inner rock god with the launch of Those Who Rock. The community project involves amateur guitarists across Melbourne rehearsing a song in their local area ahead of a showcase night on the Hamer Hall stage on March 24. The project is the brainchild of musician Joseph Farrell, who said it was a chance for guitarists all over Melbourne to live out their dream. “How often do you get a chance to play at the Arts Centre in front of a big crowd?” he said. Rehearsals will run at various community locations across Melbourne, with each site learning a different song to perform. St Albans’ Bowery Theatre will be used throughout February as the rehearsal space, with Metallica’s Enter Sandman the song of choice for Brimbank. At the finale, all guitarists will join on stage to perform AC/DC’s classic For Those About To Rock. Farrell said it was a project for all skill levels, and called on anyone with music in their heart to get involved. “It’s going to be a lot of fun, and something memorable at the end of it which is a great thing to be a part of.” To get involved contact info@ thosewhorock.com.

Bus route under attack By Ewen McRae A group of concerned residents is petitioning the state government to reinstate the Caroline Springs to city bus route, claiming there are serious safety concerns with the new routes. The 216 bus route was altered in November 2017. It previously went from Caroline Springs to the city, but now starts in Sunshine. A new 426 route takes passengers from Caroline Springs to Sunshine. Petitioner Pauline Farrugia said having no continuous service from the outer western suburbs to the city had had a big impact on

‘‘

It’s another case of the western suburbs being - Pauline Farrugia overlooked

’’

many passengers. “Previously we could get on a bus in Caroline Springs, or other places west of Sunshine and have an uninterrupted ride to the city,” she said. “Now we have to change in Sunshine, and if you miss the connection you have to wait. A lot of the people who use the service are elderly,

or travelling alone, and if you get stranded by yourself at night it can be quite scary. “I had a situation where I was by myself until 1am, and I hid so no one could see I was alone. It’s a real concern for many people.” Ms Farrugia said it was a case of inequality. “It’s another case of the western suburbs being overlooked,” she said. “In the eastern suburbs you have more options, and out here we seem to get neglected. We only have trains and buses to get into the city, and if you have to keep hopping on and off, sometimes with a walker or shopping, it’s very inconvenient.”

A Public Transport Victoria spokesperson said the change in route was brought in to improve service reliability. “PTV continually looks for ways to improve our public transport network and to improve links between services,” they said. “Route 426 gives passengers better reliability and timetabled connections to train stations on the Sunbury line. “PTV works closely with Victoria Police, and our bus, tram and train operators, to ensure the ongoing safety of our passengers.” The petition can be viewed at tinyurl.com/ yb8m2bay

VU’s building block to success By Ewen McRae Victoria University’s new teaching model, introduced last year, has resulted in a steep increase in first-round offers for 2019. The university reported a 12 per cent jump in first preference offers compared to the previous year, crediting it’s block model of teaching for the success. The block model focuses on students successfully completing one unit at a time before moving to the next, instead of juggling multiple units simultaneously.

‘‘

We are transforming university for our - Peter Dawkins students

’’

Vice-chancellor Peter Dawkins said the results vindicated the university’s change of teaching model. “This strong growth is clear evidence that VU’s remarkable transformation, particularly through the block model method of teaching and learning, is attracting more students than

ever before,” Professor Dawkins said. “These results vindicate that we are doing something extraordinary in Australia’s higher education sector that is worth celebrating. “We are transforming university for our students and giving them a new way to do uni.” The results come on the back of strong enrollments in TAFE courses following the state government’s introduction of a number of free courses. Victoria University polytechnic has reported a strong interest in TAFE courses across its western suburb campuses, with the state

government reporting 3000 students had enrolled in free courses already. Popular courses included nursing, plumbing, accounting and disability support. Premier Daniel Andrews said the early figures on TAFE enrollments were a strong sign for the future. “Free TAFE is giving Victorians the skills they need to secure the job they want – without a hefty price tag,” he said. “Not only are we investing in the projects our state needs, we’re investing in the people we need to deliver them.”

Burger bites into new adventure space,” Ms Burger said. “It will be open to kids and adults, and I’m also hoping to get schools involved to come and have a go. “It’s such a fun activity, and it’s great for fitness as well as developing teamwork and also working with people from all nationalities. In the circus we were all one family.” The school will feature a number of different disciplines, including juggling, trapeze, acrobatics, balancing, hula hoops and unicycles. “I just wanted to give children in the area the

chance to maybe realise a dream,” Ms Burger said. “At first everyone will try all the different disciplines, and then people will probably specialise when they see where their talents or body are at. “We’ll hopefully do some performances at the end of the year so it should be a lot of fun.” For more information contact info@ lindadorjcircusstudio.com Ewen McRae

MFB firefighters rescued three puppies from certain death last week. Crews were called to a house in Longfellow Drive, Delahey about 11am last Tuesday after reports of a house fire. They arrived at the scene five minutes later to find the garage on fire and flames spreading to the roof of the adjacent house. The occupant had managed to escape the premises and told crews that three puppies were still inside. Firefighters equipped with breathing apparatus entered the building and rescued the dogs while battling the flames. They brought the blaze under control within 30 minutes. The cause of the fire is being investigated. The occupant of the house was treated on scene by paramedics and reunited with the pooches. It was a busy week for Brimbank firefighters, who also had their hands full as a blaze ripped through a house in Sunshine West. Firefighters were called to an address on Yaralla Crescent about 9.20pm last Sunday following reports of smoke. Crews entered the building to search for occupants and tackle the fire from the inside. The house was empty and the blaze was brought under control in about 20 minutes. The cause of the fire is believed to be accidental.

Clubrooms in poor form

Council roads feature on film

By Tate Papworth The Grand United Cricket Club isn’t looking so grand these days. The clubrooms at JR Parsons Reserve are in need of constant repair and club president Carl Comensoli says they’re no longer fit to house the club. “This is a condemned building, so we can only renew the lease one year at a time,” he said. “It’s housed us well over the years, but it’s desperately time for an upgrade.” The clubrooms have holes in the roof, a single male toilet, no dediacted female changeroom and asbestos throughout the building. Mr Comensoli said the state of the rooms was making it hard to attract players. “This whole park is fantastic – we have athletics, football, tennis and cricket,” he said. “It deserves to be better. We need decent changerooms to attract players. “The rooms aren’t up to standard for a female cricket team. We have a few girls playing here now, but we’ve had a lot go to other clubs.” Mr Comensoli said the club was forced to paint the main dining area with a mould repellant paint, which is bright yellow, and that asbestos had been identified throughout the building. “There were about 20 stickers placed around the building warning of asbestos,” he said. “We’ve been told it’s safe, but when you’ve got kids running around and you see the stickers everywhere, it’s scary.” Mr Comensoli said Brimbank council has plans to upgrade the facilities, but he believes the time for waiting is over. “There was an earlier plan on the reserve … scheduled for 2016-17. We were told then that this place would be completely redeveloped but nothing ever happened.

Grand United Cricket Club president Carl Comensoli and vice-president Jack Hale are unhappy about the state of the JR Parsons Reserve clubrooms. (Pictures: Tate Papworth)

“We keep getting told there’s a sport development facility plan and our facility is allocated between 2023 and 2028,” he said. “They’re saying it’s at the front end of that period, but it’s supposed to already be done. “At the moment council is here non-stop.

They’ve been pretty good in helping us out when we need things on the maintenance side of things, but it’s nearly every week. “Today they were out the front patching up a hole; the week before was blocked sewerage.”

Brimbank residents may be getting the sneaking suspicion that they’re being filmed. Brimbank council has deployed road survey vehicles to film council-owned local roads in a bid to identify areas needing maintenance and improvement. Brimbank mayor Lucinda Congreve said it was a vital task. “Council owns more than 900 kilometres of local roads,” she said. “The information gained in this survey will be vital to planning maintenance works to keep our roads in good condition.” She said survey results would assist council in prioritising projects for the next three years. “More than 300 roads have been treated as a result of the previous road condition survey conducted in 2016.” Road survey vehicles will travel across all of Brimbank’s suburbs until mid-February. Cr Congreve asked the community to be mindful of the vehicles. “When filming, these vehicles will have their hazard lights on,” she said. “If you find yourself travelling behind a vehicle that’s filming, please try to keep a full car length back so we can get a clear shot of the road. “And don’t worry, the cameras are focused on the road and kerb surface, so we won’t be recording people, cars or private property.” Tate Papworth

Mr Gerada said the competition, which had 165 participants and more than 1000 matches, exceeded expectations. “The event was a huge success with participants from Ireland, China, New South Wales, Queensland, South Australia and Western Australia. “Over $10,000 in prize money was awarded and Oceania Table Tennis scholarships were presented in what was a memorable weekend.” Tate Papworth

Police are appealing for information following what is believed to be a random shooting in Taylors Lakes. Investigators have been told a man was driving to work with colleagues when they noticed another car speed up and drive alongside them, city-bound on the Melton Highway, on Monday, January 22, about 1.30am. A short time later one of the passengers noticed what appeared to be a firearm appear out of the window of the other car and heard a number of shots. One of the shots penetrated the rear window and pierced the driver’s headrest before hitting the driver behind the left ear, but did not break the skin.

It all adds up for Ardeer By Tate Papworth Each year primary schools across the state welcome a swag of fresh new faces. While it’s a special time, for one Brimbank school this year it holds more significance than usual. Ardeer Primary School is welcoming 36 prep students, the most the school has had enrolled in a decade. Principal Graham Miller said it was a significant spike in enrolments.

‘‘

We’re a progressive school with great staff

’’

- Graham Miller

“We typically have 10 to 20 preps each year, but this year it’s 36,” he said. “It’s fantastic, we’re a small school so it’s nice to see so many new faces.” While he’s happy to see the student population grow, Mr Miller said there was an added benefit to the spike in prep students. “More children means more funding, which allows us to provide a better prep program and gives us a more realistic budget to work with.” The extra funding should bolster the school’s capacity to employ more staff. “We have a high number of students with special needs, so extra funding allows us to ensure there’s a teacher plus support staff in each classroom,” Mr Miller said. The school undertook a significant advertising push last year, which Mr Miller credits as a major contributing factor to the spike in preps. “We really tried to get the word out last year with doing things like a letterbox drop.

Blessing, Matilda and Hadassah. (Shawn Smits)

“We’re a small school, so we’re able to cater to the individual needs of children better than big schools might be able to and we’re really seeing word of mouth start to spread.”

The school’s total student population is 150, which Mr Miller hopes will continue to grow. “We’re a progressive school with great staff and offer a really caring education for our kids.”

Victoria Police are urging road users to put safety first after a disastrous long weekend on the roads. Police descended on holiday hot-spots, regional highways and city roads to target speeding and distracted drivers during the Australia Day weekend as part of Operation Amity. Five lives were lost on Victorian roads during the operation, which left the road toll at 22 – six more than the same time last year. Police detected more than 6500 traffic offences during the four-day operation, including more than 2200 for speeding and 371 for drink and drug driving. Road Policing Command Assistant Commissioner Stephen Leane said it was a disappointing result. “We all know that speed and impairment are among the biggest killers on our roads, so it’s astounding to see so many motorists exceeding the speed limit or driving after drinking or using drugs,” he said. “Last year saw a record low number of lives lost in Victoria, with 214, but the tragic start to 2019 shows that we can’t afford to be complacent. “Just this weekend, five families have been left devastated by the loss of a loved one, as have another 17 families since the start of the year.” Brimbank police impounded one vehicle and detected 38 speeding offences, 29

unregistered vehicles, nine drug drivers, two drink drivers, six disqualified drivers and 14 unlicensed drivers during the operation. Seven mobile phone offences, five seatbelt offences and four disobey signs/signals were detected.

We all have a part to play in reducing road - Stephen Leane trauma

’’

No lives were lost on Brimbank roads, but Assistant Commissioner Leane said the community needed to have a serious conversation about the responsibility each road user had in reducing road trauma. “We all have a part to play in reducing road trauma, whether that’s avoiding behaviors that increase risk, such as speeding or impairment, or speaking up when someone is putting themselves or others in danger,” he said. “A good starting point might be for everyone to understand that road trauma isn’t just something that happens to other people. “It is unlikely there is anyone in Victoria, or anywhere else, who doesn’t know someone who has lost their life or been seriously injured on our roads. “It can and does happen to people who are close to you and it can happen to you, too – so we all need to look after each other on our roads.”

Family ties extended By Tate Papworth Sometimes in life we all need a helping hand. St Albans brothers Tizazu (13) and Efriem (9) have had to fight to earn everything they’ve achieved. Born in Ethiopia, the two moved to St Albans three years ago to begin a new life with their uncle and aunt after their parents died. The boys’ aunt Hewote Yabio said starting a new life wasn’t easy. “At the start it was hard. They weren’t eating much and couldn’t sleep but after about a year they settled in,” Ms Yabio said. “For the little one the biggest struggle was the language barrier. He’d never been to school back home and would get annoyed because he couldn’t understand people, but he’s progressed quickly. “The older one was already in grade 3 when he moved here and already had an established way of doing things, so adjusting was a struggle.” Through hard work and determination, the boys have begun making enormous strides in their education. However the financial burden of sending two extra children to school weighed heavily on Ms Yabio. While there’s still some struggles, Ms Yabio has found some much-needed support from the Smith Family’s Back to School campaign. The campaign aims to help families struggling to cover the cost of sending children to school. Ms Yabio said the program made the world of difference. “When the kids are in primary school you don’t feel it as much because things like the uniform aren’t as expensive, but last week I spent nearly $250 on uniform and it was only for summer. If you’ve got three kids it’s almost $1000,” she said.

Brothers Efriem and Tizazu are Smith Family success stories. (Shawn Smits)

But it’s not just financial help, the organisation’s homework club also is proving to be a huge benefit. “Before starting the homework club the boys couldn’t read for even 20 minutes, now they can read as long as they like without distraction,” Ms Yabio said. “They meet every Thursday for 90 minutes

and on top of doing their homework, they get to make friends outside of school.” Efriem will continue his primary school education this year, while for Tizazu it’s once again the beginning of a new chapter as he embarks on secondary school.

Migrants back national day A large majority of migrants and refugees new to Australia plan to become citizens and feel it is important to mark Australia Day, according to a new survey. The survey of 150 new migrants and refugees, commissioned by refugee and migrant agency AMES Australia, also found curiosity on the part of recent arrivals about Australia’s history The survey asked ‘Is a national day such as Australia Day important for the nation?’ Seventy-seven per cent of respondents said ‘yes’ while just 10 per cent said ‘no’. An overwhelming 89 per cent of respondents said they planned to become Australian citizens. AMES Australia chief executive Cath Scarth said results showed that migrants and refugees were overwhelmingly committed to becoming Australians and contributing to the nation. “It’s our experience that almost without exception people who are newly arrived to Australia want to fit in,” Ms Scarth said. “They want to learn about Australia’s culture and history.” The survey found 82 per cent of respondents said they knew, or planned to learn more, about Australia’s history and the reasons Australia Day is celebrated, while 10 per cent said they did not. The survey also found Australia Day events and the publicity around the day helped new arrivals feel welcome. Ewen McRae

MY BRIMBANK Charlie Mellino is an experienced karate teacher and Brimbank resident. He’s decided to give back to the community by offering free self-defense classes for women. He spoke with Tate Papworth.

I’ve lived in Brimbank for the past seven years and my wife has actually lived out here for over 20 years. In the past year I’ve also started teaching karate in Kealba. What do you like best about the area? There’s a real sense of community out here. There’s a nice family feel to the area and it’s a genuinely safe environment. It’s a great place to raise a family. Where’s your favourite place to go for a feed? We love the Keilor Hotel. The whole of Keilor Village is actually really lovely, particularly in the winter. It feels like you’re in the countryside out there and yet it’s so close to the city. You’re offering self-defense classes for women? I am. Women only self-defense classes

are something I’ve done in the past. I find that when it’s women only, they feel more confident and can focus a bit better. Did you decide to offer them again in response to recent tragic events? Absolutely. Unfortunately when things like this happen, there’s a demand. I put a call out and the interest was there, so I’m going to be running four workshops. I’m holding them at Kealba Hall every Tuesday for four weeks starting tonight. I’m not doing this for money so there’ll be no charge. If it can help just one person then it’s worthwhile. And what can people who come along expect? Over the four sessions I’ll explain situational awareness and teach basic self-defense skills to help women remove themselves from a threat. It will be practical skills. And do people need to book? Nope, just come along to the Kealba Hall.

It has been most unusual in the past for women to be employed as gardeners, but it has become more popular in recent years. The women at Sunshine are Miss Julie Tennyson, 21, of Essendon and Mrs Ann Gooda, 19, of Kealba. Ann achieved an excellent pass and was selected to be interviewed for the W. Brens Scholarship.

Destruction of the Deer Park war memorial swimming pool was “sacrilegious” and showed disregard for those who gave their lives for their country, Victorian RSL president Bruce Ruxton said on a visit to the pool site last week. Mr Ruxton said it was “the callous act of a socialist-controlled council,” which had no sympathy for ex-servicemen and their contribution to Australia.

Plans for a $4.3 million licensed gaming venue on the Brimbank Heights housing estate, off Taylors Road, have upset the St Albans Sports (Football and Cricket) Club and the Green Gully Soccer Club. The Brimbank Club will take up 1.69 hectares of what is presently reserved general industrial land with a 70-metre frontage onto Regan Street.

Trucks are using Quinn Street, Deer Park, as a shortcut to nearby quarries despite the road having a weight limit, residents have told police in the wake of a truck ploughing into a house last week. Linda Farkas was enjoying a lie-in on Wednesday morning when she heard a massive bang and felt her house shake.

CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir casts a line at this Maribyrnong fish bar

Any surgical or invasive procedure carries risks. Before proceeding, you should seek a second opinion from an appropriately qualified q practitioner

“Dad, your patty looks like it’s a frozen one!” Such is Bennie’s gloomy visual assessment of my wagyu burger at Fugu Fish Bar. A fresh-faced fish and burger joint, Fugu is at the nexus of Hampstead and Wests roads, a few blocks from Highpoint and in a long-standing small shopping precinct that houses another dedicated burger joint. This is an area undergoing rapid change as more and more people move in. We both “combo” our meals for $3 extra, so my burger deal clocks in at $17 with the addition of coleslaw. My burger is better than indicated by Bennie’s scorn – but it’s acceptable without being memorable. The coleslaw is outstanding. Bennie is happy with his southern chicken burger ($15 with chips), even though it appears a little crumpled. The chips are OK. Just. On an earlier, reconnaissance visit, I enjoyed my blue grenadier with chips and coleslaw, the latter again superb. The little things count! In this case, I was not offered a combo set-up so my lunch costs more through the addition of $6 worth of salad on top of the $12 for the classic fish/chip deal. The fish was bigger than it looked at first glance and good eating, though the batter was a bit doughy. Fugu has been recommended to us so we are disappointed to be a little underwhelmed.

In a great court location, this neat abode offers plenty of space for family living. Interior character is enhanced by cathedral ceilings and polished floorboards, complemented by the timber staircase and balustrades featured throughout. The kitchen has loads of solid timber cabinetry and granite benchtops. Glossy floor tiles run out from here to incorporate the adjoining dining space. There are five bedrooms, the main with built-in robe and en suite. The bathroom has been renovated and features dark tiling and a step-up corner spa. Ducted heating and split-systems throughout keep temperatures comfortable. Out the back, a mix of timber decking and concrete spaces provides plenty of room to entertain or dine alfresco. There’s also a shed. If the double garage doesn’t cover parking, there is plenty of driveway space behind a secure front gate.

With a three-bedroom brick veneer residence that can be leased for some holding income, this block of about 615 square metres is a slice of prime St Albans real estate. It’s zoned mixed use, making it suitable for a variety of developments, subject to council approval, such as retail, commercial, residential apartments or a mixture. This is an excellent chance to tap into the remarkable potential of an ever-evolving suburb close to Melbourne’s CBD via the Western Ring Road and West Gate Freeway.

SPORT Devils keen to focus on a new era Everything is heading in the right direction for Keilor Park ahead of the Essendon District Football League season. The Devils fielded only a women’s senior side last season, but are on track to have a men’s and under-19 side this season. New senior men’s coach John Mangos said it was exciting to have men’s football back at the club. He said there had been good numbers around the club, with a mixture of new and old faces, but they were still to make a decision on whether they would have a reserves side. “We’ve got 16 new players at the club now which is a positive,” he said. “We’ve had a number of older blokes that have come back as well. We’ve been trying to keep everything positive and we can’t wait for the season.”

Among those to join the club are Zeyad Elayoubi and Noureddine Noor, who have come across from Hadfield. Friends Mark Caruana, Josh Bernardi and Athan Lontos have all come across together and there could be a couple more joining. Reece Davies, Dom Dajak, Kane Trotterl and Jesse Gila are among former Devils who have returned. In a bonus for the Devils, they will field an under-19 side for the first time in a number of years. The club is hoping these players will stick around and progress through the ranks. Mangos said it was a real credit to the junior branch of the club. “The junior committee have really stuck it out and it’s great for the club. I will look at playing one or two under-19s every week if I

can. Which I think is really great.” The women’s side has put in a big pre-season and has been training for months already. Mangos said despite all the positive news, they’re realistic of what’s ahead. He said the focus was on ensuring the long term future of the club. “We’re welcoming players into the club and we want to continue to focus on the club for the next year or two. We know that it might be tough to win a few games, but these guys just want to play football.” The Devils are still looking for players in all senior age groups. The men’s and under-19s train Tuesday and Thursday nights. The women’s side trains Monday and Thursday nights. Tara Murray

Knights ready for action By Lance Jenkinson Melbourne Knights coach Micky Colina is looking for across-the-board improvement for his side to make the jump from a mid-table team to a finals contender in the National Premier League. As the under 20s coach and senior assistant last season, Colina had the benefit of stepping into the head coach position with prior knowledge of the players already at the club, the youngsters coming through and the areas of need. In an honest assessment, Colina felt the Knights entered this pre-season with improvement needed in all areas of the field. “We need to concede a lot less goals and score more goals – it’s very simple,” he said. “We’ve looked at our squad and some of the areas that we feel we need more depth and quality. “We needed to create a lot more competition in the squad. “I think we’ve recruited very responsibly with the right people, from a character point of view, and also people that add value on the park, which is naturally important.” Melbourne Knights have exhausted all avenues to improve this season. Internally, the Knights are hoping for natural growth from the established players and want to fast-track some of the promising homegrown youngsters. Luke Jurcic and Ayden Brice are two that are tipped to go up another level this season, while a fit Nikola Jurkovic will be a bonus on the backline after he only managed 13 games last season. Anthony Duzel is one of the younger brigade who could take the step up. No matter what the make up of the Knights starting XI for their season opener against Oakleigh Cannons on February 15, the message from Colina is that every player will have to earn their spot. “Whoever gets the nod on any given game, it’s up to you to keep yourself in there for the next game, it’s as simple as that,” he said. “Actions speak louder than words.” Since the new year, Melbourne Knights have announced a number of key additions. With veteran Ben Surey retiring from the NPL, the Knights needed a strong defender to replace him. Corey Sewell, who transferred from Bulleen Lions, is earmarked for a key role in the Knights defence. “He’s a solid defender who brings us quite a few attributes across the back third,” Colina said. “A footballer that can play, reads the game well and is physically strong. “He’s got enough presence to dominate that part of the ground.

IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ It is difficult not to refer to the run-making brothers who pilfer bowling attacks in the subbies for Werribee as The Dean Machine, because they are a prolific combination. It is a name that the unassuming pair is not fond of, but one they’ll have to get accustomed to based on current form. Last weekend Matt knocked out yet another century – his third of the season – and he has a 97 as well; while brother Shaun scored 77, his third 50-plus score of the year. Unfortunately younger brother Travis, who plays for Footscray Edgewater in premier cricket and for Victoria, had a lean day with the willow, scoring 1. Werribee amassed a formidable 7/294 against Hoppers Crossing. The Werribee bowlers will have the collective might of four, first XI premiership reunions supporting them next Saturday at Chirnside Park. ■ Adam Contessa is juggling a few sports caps at the moment with his new role as senior coach of the Sunshine Kangaroos in the WRFL division one competition ramping up. The Kangaroos suffered a grand final hangover of sorts in 2018 and Adam has the big job of righting the ship. He also is a very important cog in the Yarraville Club Cricket Club first XI where he got among the wickets last weekend. With Will Sheridan out of the attack early, Contessa chimed in with a tidy 4/27 as the Clubbers took the points over Spotswood. Adam is also on the committee for the Western Bulldogs past players and officials, has a young family and business life. ■ Yarraville Cricket Club is holding its annual president’s luncheon on Friday, February 22, at the Yarraville Club in Stephen Street, Yarraville from 12.30pm. Guest speaker is former Australian and Victorian batsman Brad Hodge, with Dave O’Neil as the MC. The pair should be very provocative and entertaining. Tickets are $120 which includes a two-course meal with drinks and are available through rod.wood@ toyota.com.au or 0407 357 121. ■ As I wrote last week, you can vote on the name of the west’s A League franchise and help choose the colours. It is a very important decision and one I hope is not hijacked. The club is using ‘We are west. We are proud’ as its slogan in the lead-up to beginning life in the A League. I think giving fans an involvement from the start is the way to go and sets up a relationship built on trust and respect.

Kevin Hillier

Nikola Jurkovic’s experience in the defence will be important for the Melbourne Knights this season. (Mark Wilson)

“I think he’ll give us a lot more balance in the defensive set-up.” Tom Podaridis, from Oakleigh Cannons, will provide energy on the left side, while Ivan Grgic, returning to the club, will add experience to the defence. There will be some exciting additions to the front third too, with Gian Albano and Yutaro Shin joining. Albano, from Bayswater City in the WA NPL, is described as an explosive attacker who

can play as a winger or more centrally. “He’s quick, strong and knows how to finish,” Colina said. Shin, a native of Japan, has crossed from Savan United in the Laos Premier League. He is not new to Australia, having played with Sydney United and Blacktown City in the past. “He’s going to bring us quality in the front third,” Colina said. Melbourne Knights will face Hume City in a pre-season friendly away tomorrow night.

Victory an inspiration as Heights hustle for finals

Saman Gonawala is averaging 49 for Sunshine Heights this season. (Damjan Janevski)

For Sunshine Heights, a big win over a local rival was as much about confidence and belief as it was about bragging rights. In a commanding Victorian Turf Cricket Association division 3 54-run win over top-of-the-ladder Sunshine on Saturday, the Heights proved that their best is plenty good enough to match it with any team in the competition. For Heights coach Luke Simpson and his team, it was an important victory. “To beat the top side, who are the side to beat at the moment, is great for the confidence of our guys going forward,” Simpson said. But Sunshine Heights will not be able to catch ladder-leaders Sunshine and Point Cook. The Heights’ hopes were dashed in a four-wicket loss to Williamstown Imperials in a one-day game on Sunday. So the Heights’ focus now turns to making sure of a finals berth.

“As you can tell by the ladder at the moment, it’s pretty tight for those third and fourth spots, while Sunshine and Point Cook have kicked clear,” Simpson said. “Mathematically they can be caught, but they’ll have to slip up, obviously. “We’re fighting tooth and nail to try and get a finals spot first.” The victory over Sunshine came largely through the impact of Saman Gonawala with the bat. His 87 was the cornerstone of the Heights’ 9-192 declared. Averaging 49 this season, Gonawala is underlining his status as one of the premier batsmen in the competition. “He’s all class,” Simpson said. “I was quoted in the paper last year saying he’s one of the best batsmen in the comp and I don’t think much has changed there. “His 87 was probably worth 140 when you consider how slow the outfield was and how big Sunshine’s ground is.

“He’s just a super classy batsman and one that you’d rather have on your side watching him bat than watching him bat while you’re fielding.” Sunshine was bowled out for just 138, Asela Aluthge providing the only resistance with 64. Akon Mawien was brilliant with the ball for the Heights with four wickets, including the scalp of Aluthge. “He’s taken a while to get into form, he’s been injured, but he’s just firing at the right time of the year,” said Simpson of Mawien. “He got a couple of big wickets early for us and then a couple more through the middle that really changed the game. “On his day, he’s the most dangerous bowler in the competition.” Sunshine Heights will have another huge pre-finals test when it travels to Point Cook for a two-day game starting on Saturday.

Sports shorts VSDCA

Taylors Lakes will need to lift its batting if it is to chase down Altona’s 253 in their Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association north-west clash at Lionheart Reserve. The Lions have made sub-200 in all bar three of their matches this season. If the Lions can get up, they will be thankful for the influence of captain and spinner Jarrod Wakeling on day one. He churned out 30 overs for a return of 6-109. Nipun Sumanasinghe took 3-45 off 20.2. The match will conclude this Saturday.

VTCA

Keilor has leapt up to third on the VTCA senior division table after a stunning six-wicket win over Yarraville Club in a one-day game at Hansen Reserve on Saturday. Chasing 177, Keilor went nuts, hitting boundary after boundary to reach the target in 24.1 overs at a run rate of 7.34 an over. Kaushal Lokuarachchi blasted 84 off 55 for the Blues, while Upal Bandara added 52 not out off 46. Sunshine United is stuck outside the top four after a seven-wicket loss to Spotswood, while St Albans kept its finals hopes alive with a 94-run thrashing of Seddon.

Soccer Heptathlete Celeste Mucci is the 2018 Don Deeble rising sports star of the year. (Damjan Janevski)

Rising star eyes Tokyo By Lance Jenkinson Celeste Mucci has beaten a star-studded field of young western suburbs athletes to emerge with the Don Deeble rising sport star of the year award for 2018. The heptathlete was adjudged to be the best of the best at the annual awards night at the Yarraville Club on Wednesday night. Mucci received the honour, along with $5000, donated by Yarraville Club Cricket Club. “There’s so many amazing athletes in the west,” Mucci said. “I’m really happy we get to have this awards night … I’m really grateful for this club and to the sponsors. I have a lot of interstate and international trips this year, so this money will definitely help towards that.” Mucci, 19, a product of the Williamstown Athletics Club, competed at two major events in 2018. She was in the Australian open-age team at the Commonwealth Games on the Gold Coast and represented Australia at the IAAF world under-20 championships in Finland. 46 BRIMBANK & NORTH WEST STAR WEEKLY \ FEBRUARY 5, 2019

Coming fourth in the Commonwealth Games on home soil is something Mucci will reflect upon fondly. “I took away a lot of confidence from that trip overall and competing in front of a home crowd is something that I will never forget,” she said. “I definitely learnt a lot from that experience and, moving forward, I’ll definitely take bits from that into my future competitions.” Later in the year, in Finland, Mucci strutted her stuff on the international stage. At the world under-20s two years ago, the Maribyrnong College graduate had to settle for 17th. This time around, she just missed out on the podium, finishing fifth. “Going back to my age group in my second world juniors as a top-age athlete, I definitely wanted to compete better than I did in 2016,” Mucci said. “It was definitely one of the strongest competitions I’ve ever had, so to come away with a fifth, I was very happy.” Mucci has a number of landmark events to tick off in the next 18 months.

Everything the Altona resident does will be geared towards qualification for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. “I’ve got a few European competitions coming up this year,” she said. “Hopefully [I’ll] score well enough for the World University Games and put myself in a good position for next year’s national trials, which will be Olympic trials.” Mucci will do it all with a smile. She relishes the chance to compete against the best heptathlates in the world and the challenges that come through training every day. “The girls coming through my age are very strong as well,” she said. “I love all of them – they’re all great athletes and great girls.” The Don Deeble rising sport star of the year 2018 runners-up, Bailey Lewis (taekwondo) and Luke Plapp (cycling), each received $2500. The other finalists were Dylan Molinaro (squash), Dylan Brasher (cricket), Louise Mendes (athletics), Xavier O’Halloran (football), Carly James (hockey), Nikau Pouaka-Grego (baseball) and Frank Mazza (athletics).

Sydenham Park has taken out the 2019 Victorian Macedonian Cup with a 1-0 victory over Preston Lions in the final on Sunday. It was not all bad for Preston, though, as it won the senior women and the reserves. Sydenham Park last week announced the signings of goalkeeper Max Minuzzo and Su Beom-An. Minuzzo is a youngster who impressed in a trial, while Beom-An crossed from Caroline Springs George Cross and has previously played in the Chinese Super League.

Bowls

Deer Park’s new year form is as good as any in the Bowls Victoria premier division. The Lions have returned to the greens with three straight wins, including an 80-63 victory over St Kilda away on Saturday. The Lions won in emphatic style, claiming all four rinks for a maximum 18 competition points. They have moved into second spot on the ladder ahead of a blockbuster against third-placed Melbourne at Ballarat Road this Saturday.
