Santa’s furry helpers Santa is set to make an early visit to Sunshine this year, but he’ll be guided by some different helpers. The reindeer are resting up before their big trip on Christmas Eve, so Santa has enlisted the help of Siberian huskies to bring him to town. The big man in red will be stopping by the Sunshine Marketplace on Saturday, September 14 from noon. Sunshine Marketplace centre manager Nick Kyritsis said he was happy Santa could make the trip, with or without Rudolph and his friends. “Santa tells us the reindeer are resting at the North Pole before their work begins on Christmas Eve,” he said. “We’re lucky enough to have Santa at Sunshine Marketplace and know his huskies will prove to be a hit with our customers this Christmas.” While Santa is usually the star of the show, the pups will be primed for patting and pictures with families who stop by for a visit.

Record $1b drug bust By Ewen McRae More than $1 billion of illicit drugs have been seized after a series of raids across the western suburbs uncovered Australia’s largest ever onshore methamphetamine haul. Three people have been charged after Australian Federal Police executed warrants at properties in Darley, Sunshine West, Brooklyn, Elwood and Murrumbeena on December 4. IT worker Stephen Francis Mizzi, 37, from Elwood, and couple Rachel Annette Cachia, 37, and Donovan Mark Rodrigues, 38 – both

customs brokers from Darley – were charged on Thursday in relation to the record haul. The AFP alleges all three were involved in the importation of more than 1.6 tonnes of illicit drugs – equal to almost 16 million drug deals – in stereo speakers originating from Bangkok, Thailand. In total, 1.596 tonnes of methamphetamine and 37 kilograms of heroin (a total of 1633 kgs) were detected with an estimated street value of $1.197 billion and $18.5 million, respectively. Police say it is the largest seizure of heroin in Australia since 2017.

AFP Deputy Commissioner Neil Gaughan praised the work of officers in keeping the drugs from reaching the community, and said the seizure was a warning to those seeking to import illicit drugs into Australia. “Australian law enforcement agencies are committed to combating the hold organised crime has on Australia to keep dangerous drugs off our streets and out of our homes,” he said. “Australia is a lucrative market for drug traffickers only due to the amount of drugs consumed by the public and the price paid for those drugs.

“This is a social problem that is the responsibility of everyone to address. “Police will continue to protect our communities and borders against exploitation by sophisticated criminal networks.” Border Force officers detected the drugs in vacuum-sealed bags after x-ray technology detected anomalies inside the speakers. The three people have each been charged with numerous counts of importing a commercial quantity of a border controlled drug, which carries a maximum sentence of life imprisonment.

Concerns grow over landfill fire By Tate Papworth An underground fire continues to burn at the Kealba Landfill, heightening health concerns of local residents. Residents have complained of a “toxic, smokey chemical” smell in the area for weeks, causing some to feel ill and others throat irritation. Several residents have told Star Weekly they’ve been forced to seek medical attention. “Both myself and my five-year-old daughter have a cough,” one resident who wished to

remain anonymous said. “I have coughing fits that go for five minutes… I can’t stop, I’m coughing throughout the day, it’s a really dry cough. “My daughter has a similar cough and complains that her throat feels funny.” The EPA has repeatedly said the fire is under control, despite the fact the “hotspot” has remained for more than a week. The authority this week installed air monitors in some homes neighbouring the site after concerned residents called the fire brigade. The EPA said air monitoring had not shown

any issues with air quality, but it was concerned that odour may affect the local community, particularly when sections of the landfill will need to be uncovered to deal with the hotspot. Landfill operator Barro Group notified the EPA of a suspected fire within one of the waste cells on November 26. The cell has been covered with a thick layer of clay to contain the smoke and odour. Star Weekly understands the air quality monitors are to be removed early this week, but another resident is calling for them to remain in place for a longer period of time.

“I’m still experiencing health issues from the odour, I have a sore throat, tickling lungs, and am often wanting to cough. If you’re outside for any length time you get nauseated,” said the resident. “I just wish we knew what we’re breathing in. Apparently air monitoring hasn’t shown anything elevated above safe, but we’d love to have had this set up a lot sooner.” Brimbank council has urged the community to report suspicious odour to the EPA on 1300 372 842. Air quality data for Kealba can be viewed at www.epa.vic.gov.au9

Brimbank Park gets festive music so it will be great to see the outside of the cafe come to life, weather pending. “David Davros, our music co-ordinator suggested doing something on the 15th, so we’ve organised a visit from Santa, we’ll give out presents and I think we may even have a few schools here singing choir songs.” The cafe opened in December last year and has undergone significant renovations over the past 12 months. Mr Clarke thanked the public for their patience during the time.

Two commercial bus services have been grounded following a bus safety blitz at Melbourne Airport. Bus Safety Victoria, police and Commercial Passenger Vehicles Victoria conducted the blitz last week, targeting non-compliant services. Bus Safety Victoria director Lisa Faldon said 37 buses were checked during the surprise operation. One commercial bus service was grounded after it was found to be operated by a person who was not accredited to run a commercial service. The other service was grounded after checks uncovered it was being run using a 16-seat vehicle instead of one with a maximum capacity of 12 seats. Ms Faldon said two drivers were issued with infringement notices for using an unroadworthy vehicle or trailer on a highway, while eight drivers received infringements after errors were found in their work diaries. Defect notices were issued for six buses found to be unroadworthy and for six unroadworthy trailers. The operators of two buses may be issued with infringement notices after it was discovered the buses were not equipped with operating fire extinguishers. “A regulator must hold all operators to the one standard because the bottom line is that safety for passengers, drivers and other road users is paramount,“ Ms Faldon said. “Bus operators should expect to see us anywhere, anytime. “We work to ensure that the many visitors to Victoria who take bus trips have a positive experience underpinned by safe travel.“

Creekside College has again proven it has talent when it comes to science. The college entered the annual Science Talent Search competition for a second consecutive year and three pupils received awards. The college’s head of primary science Nichole Fraser said the competition was gaining popularity among students. “Last year we had 12 students enter, which climbed to over 30 this year,” she said. “We did really well. One of our year four students, Dylan, came away with a major bursary for a game he created called Maze Runner. The game looked at the three laws of motion.

Deer Park fire

“One of our year six students, Nikita, received a minor bursary for a model she created which shows how the ball and socket joint and hinge joint work. “Dylan’s brother Aaron, who is in year six, also received a minor bursary for research he did into the efficiency of ceiling fans.” The talent search competition is open to all primary and secondary students in Victoria and receives thousands of entries each year. Ms Fraser said the awards were a testament to the passion the school’s pupils have for science.

More than 20 firefighters were required to contain a fire that broke out at a home in Deer Park on November 30. Crews were alerted to the incident on Stoke Street just after 8am. Firefighters prevented the blaze from spreading and the incident was declared under control after 25 minutes. No one was home at the time.

Property market continues to rise By Tate Papworth Brimbank’s housing market is continuing to rebound in line with the national trend. Figures released by property data and analytics provider CoreLogic earlier this month show housing values have enjoyed five months of consistent growth. According to the figures, housing prices in Melbourne’s west have risen 1.3 per cent in the past month and 3.3 per cent over the past quarter, however they remain 1.3 per cent lower than last year.

Barry Plant director James Hatzimoisis said it’s clear prices are well on their way back to historic highs. “Post election we’ve certainly seen a lift in buyer activity and sentiment. Buyers are back,” he said. “It’s a bit of a roller coaster, volume stock levels are historically low, so there’s increased demand, which is creating lots competition and we’re seeing strong results. “Some data will tell you we’re still below those levels, but out on the field, we’re seeing a different sentiment.”

‘‘

In the long run, Sunshine is ... where to buy - Benny Nguyen

’’

Mr Hatzimoisis said Sunshine and the Taylors Lakes/Hillside corridor were enjoying the strongest growth. Sweeney Real Estate director Benny Nguyen agreed that the Sunshine market was rising rapidly. “On our end, I can see about a 10 per cent

rise in central Sunshine and Sunshine North in particular,” Mr Nguyen said. “For example we sold two properties side by side in the same street recently. We sold one for $550,000 in May and two weeks ago sold the other for $710,000.” Mr Nguyen said he had little doubt that the market would rise to the record highs of 2016-17 once again. “There’s no doubt in the long run we’ll get back to record highs and probably go beyond that,” he said. “In the long run, Sunshine is the way to go, it’s where to buy. I think it has a lot more potential than already developed areas.”

Lighting up the castle Tickets are now on sale for a Brimbank Christmas tradition. Carols at the Castle returns to Overnewton Castle on Sunday, December 15 with a promise of plenty of festivity, food trucks and fun. Brimbank mayor Georgina Papafotiou encouraged everyone to join in, with funds raised going towards a great cause. “This wonderful family event has long been a tradition for local families and a fantastic way to get into the spirit of Christmas,” she said. “Carols at the Castle is also an important fundraiser – with all money from ticket sales going to the Brimbank Community Fund, which supports Brimbank’s most vulnerable residents through grassroots solutions.” This year, Carols at the Castle features a number of talented stars from Brimbank, Melbourne’s west and beyond. Albion’s own stage star, Aurora Kurth, will MC the event, while Melbourne singers

Anthony Monea, Lissa Dawson and Ricky Muscat will have audiences singing along to Christmas favourites. Accomplished musicians Louise Goh, Craig Strain, Lucky Pereira, Cheryl Durongpitsikul and children’s performers Carp Productions round out an evening of Christmas fun – along with plenty of elves, fairies and maybe even a special visit from Mr and Mrs Claus. Cr Papafotiou said this year the event will be bigger than ever. “We’ll have a range of food offerings on site so there will be plenty to feed the family,” she said. “We’re also adding even more sing-along numbers, including lots of Christmas classics that everyone will know, and producing a program of song lyrics that audiences can print out and bring along – so everyone can get into the Christmas spirit.” Tate Papworth

Watergardens plan takes shape By Tate Papworth Watergardens Town Centre’s evolution is taking shape. The project will deliver 5000 square metres of transformed retail space and include a new playground and a community space. Just under 400 jobs are tipped to be created during the construction stage and more than 400 new jobs are expected to be delivered once the project is complete. The centre’s new $50 million food

marketplace is poised to open mid-2020, but centre manager Joe Galea said a number of exciting milestones are closer. “We remain on track to deliver The Marketplace by mid-2020, and we look forward to reaching a number of key construction milestones in the lead-up to Christmas, including the delivery of its new roof,” Mr Galea said. “This new roof will reuse the existing structure but incorporate new steel work, expanding The Marketplace footprint to 5000

square metres, and allowing for the creation of two brand new entrances to the centre.” Supermarket giant Aldi has taken over control of its future site and is fitting it out. Meanwhile, the centre’s entrance adjacent to The Coffee Club will re-open in mid-December, just in time for last minute Christmas shopping. The Marketplace is the first of a number of planned future upgrades for Watergardens. “A number of other exciting proposed projects [are] planned as part of this evolution

– allowing the team to cement Watergardens as a town centre for the future,” Mr Galea said. “While it is still too early to share specific details, we look forward to making some exciting announcements in the coming months. “We have always held a long-term view about the future of Watergardens, and we are confident that we are equipped with the right plan to deliver our vision that pays tribute to the tradition and vitality of our community.” Details: www.watergardens.com.au

Melton hospital a step closer By Ewen McRae A new 24-hour hospital in Melton is a step closer, with the state government announcing that Western Health will run the facility once it is completed. While the business case for the hospital is still being formulated, the announcement that Western Health will integrate the new hospital into its existing health network – which includes Sunshine and Footscray hospitals – is a positive sign. Acting health minister Martin Foley said

Western Health was best placed to deliver the necessary services for the community. “Melton’s new hospital will be in trusted hands,” Mr Foley said. “Western Health has a proud track record providing the highest quality care to patients throughout Melbourne’s booming western suburbs. “As one of the fastest-growing communities in Australia, Melton locals deserve a world-class, 24-hour public hospital, right on their doorstep.” A tender has gone out to a shortlist of six

consultants, who will carry out the vital planning and design work and find the best site for the new hospital. The announcement has led Djerriwarrh Health Services and Western Health to start discussions over a possible amalgamation of services to better meet the needs of the community. A joint statement from the two organisations said any amalgamation would be voluntary from both organisations, and was still in the very early stages. “The announcement opens the way for a

wider examination of the future of healthcare needs of Melbourne’s west,” the statement said. “Following four years of close partnership between the services, the Western Health board and Djerriwarrh Health Service’s administrator have agreed to explore the best possible options and opportunities for healthcare in Melbourne’s west. “Engagement with staff and local communities of both health services will be an important part of this process and will build on recent community consultation by Djerriwarrh Health Services.”

Cyclist’s sinkhole drama A cyclist was taken to hospital last week after falling victim to a sinkhole in Sunshine North. Emergency services were called to the corner of Gerald and Eastcote streets on the morning of Friday, November 29. The cyclist was treated for minor injuries before being taken to Footscray Hospital in a stable condition. The SES was called to the scene to assist in traffic management and assessment of the sinkhole. It is believed a burst water main caused the damage on the council-owned road. Brimbank council’s director infrastructure and city services, Neil Whiteside, said temporary repairs have been put in place. “Council was concerned to hear a cyclist had been injured during an incident last week. We wish them a speedy recovery,” he said. “Upon being alerted to the incident by Victoria Police, council inspected the road

on the same day and found the collapse had occurred near the main sewer line. “City West Water were called immediately and made temporary repairs to the road.” Investigations are now underway to determine the exact cause of the collapse. Once a determination is reached, the council says permanent repairs will be made. Tate Papworth

Feather in young author’s cap By Tate Papworth A young Brimbank birdwatcher is putting his passion to paper. At just 18, Chanith Wijeratne has already penned eight books dedicated to birdwatching, some focusing on species in Melbourne’s west. It’s a burning passion for Mr Wijeratne, who admits he fell into the hobby under unusual circumstances. “It’s an odd hobby. I got into it after dad gave me a bird field guide for my birthday many years ago,” he said. “I read it, found it very interesting and now I’m obsessed.” He said putting his knowledge onto paper is an outlet to manage his passion. “The first book was on birds of a wildlife park in Sri Lanka, I write them on places I go to and also use them as a way of improving my bird photography skills,” he said. “The beauty is you can do it anywhere. There’s a bird nesting in our backyard at the moment, you don’t have to go anywhere specific. Some of my favourite places are around Melbourne.” Mr Wijeratne said one of his favourite places to explore is Brimbank’s famous Organ Pipes Park, but his favourite sighting came in Sri Lanka. “There’s a very pretty black bird with a blue patch on its shoulder, called the Sri Lanka whistling thrush. “It only lives in the hilly areas of Sri Lanka and is quite a rare, shy species. For six years I’d visit this one spot along a stream … but never saw anything. “But one day I showed up and met a biologist there who told me I was looking in the wrong spot and that there was a bird feeder 100 metres away. I went over to the feeder and there was three of them sitting there.”

City secures new recycling contract

Hide your secret stuff By Goya Dmytryshchak Pickpocket-proof travel undies for women made in Melbourne’s inner west are about to take off. Squirrls – pronounced ‘squirrels’ – are the brainchild of Lynda Ford who is this month launching the global phenomenon from her Yarraville home. Made from cotton woven in Spotswood and dyed in Sunshine, the undies come off a production line in Braybrook, are packed inside boxes from Sunshine North before

I asked her to put a little pocket in the front of these undies for me and it worked. “So, over the last 10 years I’ve tried lots of different ways of fastening them – do you put Velcro, do you put a zip, do you put little press studs – but the way that we have them now is the best way to wear them.” While the production of Squirrls is local, Ms Ford said she wanted to help all women. The undies are made in sizes 6-24 and will be mailed all over the world. For more information, visit the Squirrl website: squirrl.com.au

being marketed and sold online from South Kingsville. Ms Ford said the briefs, which store items such as passport and credit card in a secret pocket with no bulge, had been 10 years in the making. “It started in 2009 – I was travelling from Australia to Buenos Aires, to go to Antarctica,” she said.“I had about four or five days there by myself before two of my friends turned up and I was absolutely paranoid that I would lose my passport or have it stolen. “I knew a young women who could sew … so

Brimbank council has entered into a short-term contract with Cleanaway for its kerbside recycling collection. The 19-month contract will be used as a stop-gap measure while the council decides on the long-term recyclable processing for the municipality. Mayor Georgina Papafotiou was quick to reassure the community that operations were back on track. “There have been a number of disappointing disruptions to recycling services over the last year but I want to assure the community these disruptions are now well and truly in the past,“ Cr Papafotiou said. “This new contract … gives council and the community the assurance household recycling will continue to be processed correctly.” She said that while the council seeks to sure up it’s long-term recycling options, it would look to the state government for guidance. “Council will continue to look at its longer-term recycling options beyond June 2021, through the collective procurement process with the Metropolitan Waste and Resource Recovery Group,” she said. “We also eagerly await the Victorian government’s Circular Economy Policy and outcomes of the parliamentary inquiry into recycling and waste management.” Tate Papworth

Award nomination is cream on top By Tate Papworth Sunshine-based Bulla Dairy Foods is a finalist in Australia’s premier dairy awards. The dairy giant has been recognised in the cream category for its Double Cream. The Australian Grand Dairy Awards, which will be held in February next year, are widely regarded as the most prestigious in the industry and aim to celebrate and promote the world-class quality of Australia’s top cheeses, ice creams, milks, butter, and gelato. Australian Grand Dairy Awards convener Alexandra Kury said it was about providing due recognition to an industry synonymous with hard work. “The … awards recognise the hard work, dedication and care our farmers and producers place in developing Australia’s fantastic dairy produce,” he said. Bulla isn’t the only western suburbs business recognised. Truganina-based Meredith Dairy has been recognised for its goat’s cheese. Meredith Dairy employee Julie Cameron said she was delighted to hear the announcement. “The Australian Grand Dairy Awards are the benchmarks we strive to reach each and every year, it’s great to be nominated, this award is the best of the best,” she said. “For everyone, this is a celebration and reward for the hard work required to overcome the challenges faced by the dairy industry.” While it’s now over to the judges, the public is also able to lend the local company a helping hand. Public voting is open for the People’s Choice Award. Anyone who votes also goes into the draw to win a dinner for two at one of Australia’s top fine-dining restaurants.

Gaming lease relies on goodwill By Tate Papworth Brimbank council and St Albans Sports Club have entered into a lease agreement designed to cut the harm caused by gaming machines. After more than a decade of Brimbank topping the list for the highest amount of money lost on pokies in the state, the council reviewed its agreements with two clubs that operate gaming machines on council land. As part of the new agreement, the St Albans Sports Club will be entitled to significant discounts over the term of its 10-year lease

if it can prove it is implementing harm minimisation practices and show that they are working. The club will receive up to a 40 per cent ($108,000) discount on its lease for implementing gambling harm reduction programs. It will also receive a 25 per cent ($67,500) discount for sports facility capital works investment over the future term of the lease, and a further 15 per cent ($40,500) for the implementation of community benefit activities.

‘‘

How it actually works is the key to it

’’

- John Hedditch

The club operates 35 state government approved gaming machines at the site. According to the Victorian Gaming Commission, a total of $5,167,145.47 was lost by gamblers at the club during the past financial year. A total of $142.9 million, equal to $879 for every adult, was lost at the 15 gaming venues

operating in Brimbank in the same time. Cr John Hedditch commended the new agreement, but said constant evaluation was imperative. “This has been a process where goodwill between the club and council has come to the fore,” he said. “This discount lease arrangement is a really good set of principles, but the devil is in the detail with it and how it actually works is the key to it. “That it works well is the key to it and that it is monitored and evaluated as it’s going forward is a key to it as well.”

Kindness rewarded St Peter’s Primary School is one place where acts of kindness don’t go unnoticed. Three of the school’s pupils, Elizabeth, Marcus and Sophie, have recently been recognised for their compassion, integrity and kindness at the Fred Hollows Humanity Award ceremony, held at Melbourne Town Hall. Elizabeth was nominated by teacher, Ashleigh Mastin, for her kindness and inclusivity. “Elizabeth is an integral member of the class, someone who continually goes out of her way to assist her teachers and peers,” Mr Mastin said. “The bonds she’s created with other students are beautiful and she exudes kindness to every person she encounters.” Fellow recipient Marcus was also nominated by Mr Mastin, for his encouraging and supportive manner. “Marcus is a student who is approached

by fellow classmates for help, support and laughter,” he said. “From picking up a scrap of paper to playing with a friend in need, his kindness and compassion is evident in the relationships he has built with everyone.” Sophie was nominated by teacher Elise Hunt, for her reliability, dedication and enthusiasm. “Sophie always puts in her personal best to every task and she understands the importance of her actions,” Ms Hunt said. “During our fundraiser for the water crisis, Sophie created a mini well to demonstrate the living conditions of those living in poverty and then continued to educate the wider community with announcements and updates.” The Humanity Award is a national initiative of The Fred Hollows Foundation that acknowledges year six pupils who demonstrate humanitarian values towards others.

Final approach for spotters By Jessica Micallef Plane spotters will need to find a new place to gaze at landing aircraft as a popular viewing site is set to close for nearby construction. The aircraft viewing area on the corner of Sunbury and Oaklands roads will close at the end of January to make way for a staging area and site office for workers building a nearby 12-megawatt solar farm for Melbourne Airport. The viewing area is a popular destination for locals and tourists to watch planes take off and land. The site is also home to food trucks and coffee vans. Melbourne Airport spokesperson Grant Smith said the “temporary” closure could be up at 18 months. “At this stage we’re anticipating the area will be closed for 12 to 18 months starting at the end of January 2020,” he said. “We don’t have a specific date at this point but the project team will have one for us in the next couple of weeks. “We understand that millions of Victorians all have their own plane spotting story and we appreciate that even the temporary closure of an area like this will be quite emotional for some of our community members.” Mr Smith said alternative viewing spots will be available on Operations Road along the western and southern perimeters of the airfield. However, the decision to close the popular destination has come under fire by staff at Airport Ice Cream and Kebabs. The food truck has called the aircraft viewing area home for nearly two decades and employee Eric said he was disappointed by the decision to close the “known Melbourne icon”. “That’s like telling someone you are going to get sacked,” Eric said. “It’s hard, we have loans to pay, bills to pay.

The Bulla viewing area at Tullamarine airport is closing for 18 months. (Mark Wilson) 201955

You get the rich, you get the poor. “It’s a meeting point for everyone. Everyone comes here.

Schools set to get greener Students at a number of Brimbank schools will soon be encouraged to roll up their sleeves and embrace their inner green thumbs. Braybrook Early Learning Centre, Deer Park North Primary School, Albion Primary School and Springside College have all been named as recipients of Woolworths’ Junior Landcare Grants. The grants of up to $1000 for Australian primary schools and early learning centres are designed to inspire students with hands-on environmental projects such as sustainable food production, improving waste management practices and enhancing native habitats. Woolworths Victoria state manager, Andrew Hall said the Brimbank schools were worthy recipients. “Our Woolworths Junior Landcare Grant program will continue to support students to get hands-on with worthy projects in our local environment,” he said. “The local Brimbank and north-west students have developed deserving projects that will contribute to a greener future for our community and we look forward to tracking their progress and success.” The Braybrook Early Learning Centre aims to develop a bush tucker project, which it hopes will expand on its Aboriginal education program and develop the children’s connection to country in an urban setting.

Sunshine will not have an elected council until at least 1981, according to the Premier of Victoria, Mr Hamer.

The old Smorgon’s meat works in McDonald Rd, Brooklyn, will re-open early next year, creating jobs for up to 600 workers. The international trading company Louis Dreyfus Australia Pty Ltd, has acquired a controlling interest in the abattoir and cold storage complex. It imports cars from the USSR and exports agricultural machinery there.

It’s seen the growth of the west, struggle and boom times, but now one of Brimbank’s two last remaining historic farmhouses is a testament to neglect and the misery of drugs. Built in the early 20th century, Stevens Farmhouse has been left to ruin, escalating concern in the community for its future.

Brimbank’s house sales are gathering pace again despite the global financial crisis, with one house in Deer Park now valued at $1 million. The 34-year-old four-bedroom, three-bathroom house in Millbank Drive is the first in Brimbank to be valued at a seven-figure sum, Real Estate Institute of Victoria spokesman Robert Larocca said.

MY BRIMBANK Award-winning writer Ennis Cehic is a deep thinker. With a number of projects on the horizon he spoke with Tate Papworth about writing, what drives him, and the west.

What do you like best about the area? I’m particularly fond of its changing perception. The west has always been seen as an immigrant hotpot — and it still is, but nowadays the area has become more fascinating to the outside observer. It’s no longer ignored, but rather, it’s being seen as the place where the idea of community thrives. Where different ethnicities mingle. Food and social ideas get exchanged. I think the west is a symbol, a microcosm of Australia’s multiculturalism. What do you think could be improved? I think the improvements I wanted to see in the west are already underway. The Bowery Theatre in St Albans is a good example because it’s offering opportunities to creative individuals who otherwise might find it hard to find a common ground for collaboration. I certainly did back then. If anything, I’d like to see more investment in the Brimbank Readers and Writers Festival – particularly now as many more writers, thinkers and storytellers are emerging from this region. I also think the general community is interested in hearing

stories from their own homes, streets and places. Tell us a little about the book you have just finished. I’ve actually finished two books. The first one, which I am publishing independently is called New Metonyms. It’s a book I created with Australian photographer, Shantanu Starick and it explores the key landmarks of Bosnia and Herzegovina – my homeland, where I’ve been living for the past year. Bosnia, unfortunately, is still tied to an image of war, even if the war ended nearly 27 years ago. This international image has always bothered me, and this book is an attempt to change this perception by showing – through photography, poetry and stories – the places and landmarks of Bosnia that have never been scarred by war. The book is a limited edition release and will be available to buy online, via our website, www. newmetonyms.com from late December. And book two? The second book is called Sadvertising. This is really my main project and will be my first literary body of work. It’s a short story collection that explores the existential dramas of the global creative industry, consumerism and advertising. I’m very curious about our modern condition, and since I’ve been working in advertising for the past 12 years or so, it has given me a really interesting insight into how consumerism plays out in our lives. The book was written over the past 12 months in Sarajevo under the mentorship and guidance of writer, Nam Le who wrote the award-winning book, The Boat.

(Luke Hemer) 201980_02

What’s your connection to Brimbank? My family and I migrated to Australia in 1997 after spending five years as refugees in Germany. We arrived in St Albans and lived at my uncle’s house till my parents built our family home in the same area. I’ve pretty much grown up in the west; from high school until I finished my degree at Victoria University in Footscray. Much of my teenage years were spent there, and I believe it’s also where I built up my initial curiosity for exploring the human condition, existentialism and storytelling.

New Homes

Albion Mews, a boutique 16-townhouse development from Spice Property Development, will likely be a magnet for savvy investors, with every box ticked for significant gains. Albion, a small suburb of nearly 5000 residents, closely neighbours Sunshine and is still considered undervalued, with strong potential for capital growth. A lot of urban regeneration is occurring in the inner west.

Albion Mews

The latest economic reviews have all the right indicators for a continued rise in the Melbourne housing market, with NABâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most recent forecast estimating a 7.4 per cent price rise for houses and units in 2020.

Why invest in Albion? While Melbourneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s west is flourishing, Albion is yet to be fully discovered, giving investors a chance to get in on the ground floor. Just 12 kilometres from Melbourne CBD, Sunshine/Albion is designated as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;20-minute neighbourhoodâ&#x20AC;?, with everything needed for a convenient life no further than 20 minutes away. In the case of Albion, most destinations are considerably closer than that. The Victorian government has earmarked Sunshine/Albion as a National Employment and Innovation Cluster (NEIC), with projected employment growth of 2.3 per cent a year â&#x20AC;&#x201C; the highest in the west.

22 Talmage Street, Albion

Albion station is just down the road from Albion Mews, and Sunshine Superhub will see the construction of a rail line to Melbourne Airport, resulting in a forecasted creation of 20,000 jobs. The Superhub will also create greater connectivity with Geelong, Ballarat and Bendigo. Sunshine Hospital and the new Joan Kirner Childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Hospital are just seven minutes away, while Sunshine Marketplace (five minutes away) is set for a huge upgrade, potentially attracting increased investment in mixed use and commercial development. Victoria University, just moments from Albion Mews, has recently announced the creation of a state-of-the-art job skills hub on Ballarat Road.

Cafes are popping up in Albion, but Sunshineâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s renowned multicultural dining precinct is right on the doorstep. Parklands abound and walking/bike tracks along Kororoit Creek are a five-minute bike ride from Albion Mews.

Albionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rental scene Investors can expect good returns, with 38.63 per cent of residents living in rental accommodation, according to realestateinvestar figures. A simple equation: demand is high, supply is short. According to REIV, Albionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s median rent for townhouses is $395 a week, with a median yield

of 4.37 per cent â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and a median rent change (one year) at 8.21 per cent.

Albion Mews news The community of 16 townhouses (2, 3 and 4 bedrooms) is being created for young adults and growing families. Albion Mews provides practical storage, spacious open-plan living, low maintenance and good security â&#x20AC;&#x201C; elements renters look for. The extra bathrooms and secure two-car garages will command higher rental. Visit our sales office, open 1-2pm Saturdays, at 24 Talmage Street.

Property of the week

SUNSHINE 8 McIntosh Street, 3020 Douglas Kay: 9313 7888

Price: $690,000 – $730,000

All your dreams of a house with a picket fence can come true at this charming Sunshine property. At some point this mid-century weatherboard has been given a cute country-style makeover and, with its generous 17.8-metre street frontage, decorative verandah posts and mature gardens, the facade presents a welcoming invitation to what’s inside. The front door opens to the open plan kitchen/living/dining area that occupies just over half of the house.

Glossy honey-coloured floorboards contrast well against white walls and a ceiling punctuated by designer pendants. The kitchen is a cook’s dream with oodles of drawer and cupboard storage, timber benchtops, a wall-mounted oven and separate cooktop. A gas heater in a brick surround in the lounge zone keeps it all cosy. All three spacious bedrooms have built-in robes and share the central country-inspired bathroom. Leadlight windows in the two minor bedrooms are a

Auction: December 14 at 2pm charming touch. There is a separate laundry and powder room. French doors from the dining area open to the verandah that runs the width of the house with more than enough room for both an outdoor dining and lounge setting. The north-facing backyard captures the winter sun and has a manicured lawn and the mature fruit trees will keep the pantry stocked. A kids cubby adds to the family appeal. On a more practical note, the secure drive-through garage with electric door

leads to an enormous four-car carport that, with a few tweaks, could also be a haven for year-round outdoor living or a tradie’s paradise. McIntosh is a quiet one-way street but it’s close to plenty of services and leisure options. There are five bus routes on nearby Forrest Street and Sunshine station is a 15-minute walk. The Kororoit Creek Trail is a block away, and there are plenty of nearby reserves. Jan Fisher

Wake me up before you go go because it’s back to the ’80s with this solid family house. All the ’80s classics are here; the stepped facade, vertical blinds, beige tiles, a touch of pastel in the decor, a fully timber kitchen, but it’s all been well kept and could be moved into straight away. Five generous bedrooms – main with en suite – provide plenty of flexibility and there is also a retreat/study. Outside there is plenty of room for entertaining, both on the lawn and under the verandah and a koi pond adds to the serenity. Other attractions include modern kitchen appliances, secure parking, garden shed, mature gardens and heating and cooling. All within a 15-minute walk to Keilor Plains station, a three minute walk to the International Gardens Reserve and close to Delahey shops.

This solid brick house is just dying for a makeover. While the interior may not be up to modern expectations, the good ‘bones’ and sizeable block at 662 square metres, mean it is ripe for renovation. It has been in the same family since it was built and as such retains many period features. The front door opens to a long entry way with the bedrooms to the left and living areas to the right. The generously proportioned lounge room has quality curtains and a gas heater set in stacked stone. The timber kitchen has plenty of storage space, modern appliances and enough room for a dining setting. Outside, there is a wide verandah, storage shed and pathways dissecting the lawns which would be great for delineating a vegie garden. Close to shops and Kororoit Creek.

This neat Hillside house would be perfect for buyers looking for minimal maintenance and maximum living. The sleek decor is shades of white and grey with modern fixtures and fittings. All four bedrooms have built-in robes, the main with an en suite. The main bathroom has a stand-alone bath. The glossy kitchen is sparkling white-on-white with stainless-steel trims and has overhead and underbench storage, a breakfast bar for three and is open to the spacious dining area. Full height sliding doors in the dining area facilitate seamless transfer between the indoors and out. The large living area takes in the street views through a charming bow window and a study next door adds to the amenity. A paved area is perfect for outdoor entertaining and there’s a lawn big enough for a kick of the footy – it’s all kept private by established hedging. Other attractions include ducted heating, split-system, alarm and double garage with internal access. The family-friendly location has it close to parks, schools, shops, bus routes, the Watergardens shopping centre and the Melton Highway.

Learn how to stamp your style on a rental property and keep your bond When you move into a rental place, it’s normal to want to make it your own by hanging pictures or even painting an accent wall, writes Kathleen Kinney for Domain. But when you’re renting you must remember: Any changes you make may need to be reversed once you move out – and landlords are entirely within their rights to use your money to do it. But all is not lost. Sometimes, modifications can be made with the owner’s approval. In fact, sometimes they’ll help out with costs. Just make sure you’re 100 per cent clear about the stipulations of your lease, and that you have fully informed the landlord before you pick up a paintbrush or hammer. Communication is the key. Painting There’s an excitement with moving into a new home. And, to many, that means breaking out the paint. Experience has shown that it’s not always the colour (although that’s important, too) but the skill that’s the sticking point. “I’ve had tenants get paint on the ceiling, on the trim, on the doorknobs and outlets”, says Richard, a landlord of three properties. “I even had one tenant who painted around the pictures they’d hung on the wall, and around the furniture that was placed up against the wall.” Hanging pictures Filling in holes in the wall is one of the most common issues landlords have to deal with after a tenant moves out. “Everyone likes to put up pictures, and fortunately there are less destructive hanging methods, which is great,” says Richard. “But not everyone sees the benefit of Blu-Tack over thumb tacks.”

Experience has shown that when it comes to painting it’s the skill that is the sticking point. (iStock)

Installing window treatments Those cheap vertical blinds are so ugly. Your impulse to put up a curtain rod or roman shades is completely normal. But the holes you have to drill into the wall to mount window treatments will require patching once you move out. Landlords

fume every time they see big screw marks around the window frame. Gardening You would think that planting a few tulips would delight a landlord. But that’s not necessarily the case.

“As a landlord, I want the most maintenance-free rental as possible,” says Richard. “I pay for a basic lawn-mowing service, but I do not want to keep up a garden.” Pots and planters are the best bet if you’re renting.

Would you gamble with online only in this market? Why would you even consider using an agent that wasn’t advertising in print..... Don’t leave it to chance with the cluttered digital space alone. Showcase your home to your local buyers.

SPORT Stability at the top as Thunder re-signs coaches Keilor Thunder is hard at work constructing its squads to be contenders in the Big V senior competitions in 2020. The Thunder got a head start with stability in its coaching ranks with both the men’s and women’s coaches re-signing for next season. Tom Bandilovski, who took the Thunder’s women’s championship team to the grand final last season, has re-signed, along with Liam Glascott, who fell just one game short of taking the men’s championship team to the playoffs. “It was a priority for us to re-sign our coaches at the end of the season,” Thunder operations manager Jason La Rocca said. “Players see that stability and it kind of filters down from there. “It helps them prepare for the season coming in and knowing what to expect from their coaches. “It was no-brainers for us to retain the coaches.” Keilor women’s team came agonisingly close

to taking out the championship title last year. The Thunder lost the best-of-three grand final series in heartbreaking fashion to Werribee on their home court in game three. “It was neck-and-neck the whole series,” La Rocca said. “We viewed ourselves as kind of on-par with Werribee. “I don’t think there was much in it at all and it was just on the day that they were a little bit better than us.” Keilor is hoping the acquisition of new import Claire Lundberg can boost its chance of going one step better. Lundberg, who signed last week, joins the Thunder after showing qualities at both ends of the floor for Montana State University, where she averaged 17 points, 3.6 rebounds, 1.1 steals and an assist per game. She has impressive shooting percentages from all areas of the court, making her a threat from mid-range and beyond the arc.

La Rocca is excited to have a player of Lundberg’s quality on board. “Any time you get an import, you’re getting them thinking and hoping they’re going to not only be not only an on-court performer, but a leader amongst the group as well,” he said. “The coaches will definitely pencil her in as a leader on the team.” Keilor has re-signed Ellen Kett and Genna Anderson from last season’s roster. The Thunder have brought in new recruits Ally Keating and Casey Valenti-Paea, while promoting youth players Amelia Velardo and Victoria Ikenasio. After a big finish to last season, Kett’s signature was important for the Thunder. In the men’s program, ambitious youngster Paul Tsapatolis has re-committed to Keilor, along with Brad Kelleher. Keilor Thunder women’s coach Tom Bandilovski.

A-League Western United 3 (Berisha 17, 43; Kone 24) d Melbourne Victory 1 (Nabbout 14) At GMHBA Stadium

Filip Kurto has been superb between the sticks for Western United. (Luke Hemer) 200394_18

Sweet taste of Victory By Lance Jenkinson Western United coach Mark Rudan cut the look of a satisfied and relieved man on Sunday evening. United ended its frustrating three-game losing streak with a come-from-behind 3-1 win over Melbourne Victory in an A-League local derby at GMHBA Stadium. With honourable losses piling up in recent weeks, United needed to find a win that would keep them within touching distance of the top teams in the competition. Carrying a two-goal lead into half-time, United did what it has rarely done in the early part of this season, put up the shutters and defended all three points. Rudan made no apologies for the defensive style of play after taking the lead in a pulsating first half. “Today, particularly at half-time, it was about doing what we needed to do [to win],” Rudan said. “We play in a bit of a result oriented world, so it was important that defensively we tightened things up. “The last three games we’ve won every facet in terms of stats, except for the one that’s the

most important and that’s the scoreboard. “Today, the opposite, but we don’t really care. “The first half performance, we did enough to win that game, then in the second half they rolled their sleeves, they were very disciplined and very structured in terms of what our game plan was, so I’m really proud of them.” The opening 45 minutes was action packed for the 10,128 spectators – a record home crowd for Western United. It was the visiting Melbourne Victory who drew first blood, when the speedy Andrew Nabbout pounced to score on the counter in the 14th minute. As has been the trend for most of the season, Western United seem to enjoy the challenge of fighting back from a deficit. United was swift with its response with veteran striker Besart Berisha awkwardly latching on to a perfect Connor Pain cross to head in the equaliser in the 17th minute. Out of respect to the Victory fans, who he will remain a legend amongst, Berisha was relatively muted in his goal celebration. If Victory’s defending of Berisha left a lot to be desired, its lack of attention at the set piece to Panagiotis Kone seven minutes later was

46 BRIMBANK & NORTHWEST STAR WEEKLY Tuesday, 10 December, 2019

unforgivable. Dead ball specialist Alessandro Diamanti whipped in a nice ball into the box and Kone was afforded too much space and volleyed home uncontested. Just before the break, Western United found a third goal, and this was jaw-dropping good. Speedy winger Josh Risdon delivered a peach of a cross to Berisha, who glanced his header inside the far post. It was a thing of beauty and Berisha could not help but celebrate with gusto on this occasion. If Western United had been criticised during its recent losing streak, it all centred on its lack of cutting edge in the front third. That issue was totally rectified in the win over the Victory. “There was a massive emphasis on our attacking third [at training] and you saw the result today,” Rudan said. “I’m really pleased for them because when you work on things on the training track and it comes to fruition out on the pitch on game day, as coaches there’s nothing better for us.” The fourth-placed Western United will have a short turnaround to Friday night’s trip to Brisbane Roar at Suncorp Stadium.

Lions knock on the door of the four Deer Park is knocking on the door of the Victorian Turf Cricket Association division 1 west top four. The Lions have moved level on points with fourth-placed Seddon after a seven-wicket thrashing of Tullamarine in a one-day game away at Leo Dineen Reserve on Saturday. It was a complete performance by Deer Park from the first ball to stumps. The Lions rolled Tulla for just 123 in an impressive bowling performance. Third change Shiran Rajakaruna produced his best display of the season with the ball for the Lions, taking 4-24 off eight overs. Opening bowlers Gayan de Silva and Ricky Suvada captured three wickets apiece. Deer Park cruised to the target three down in the 33rd over. Wicketkeeper Mohammed Alfar, who took four catches behind the stumps earlier in the day, led the charge for the Lions with 42 not out. Rajakaruna also impressed at the crease with 35, while Angelo Emmanuel made 25 not out. Deer Park will host Spotswood at John McLeod Oval in the final two-day game before the Christmas break. In senior division, St Albans played out a dramatic tie with Doutta Stars. Set 199 for victory, the Saints could only muster 9-198 off their 40 overs. Thilina Masmulla (52) and Shanaka Silva (50 and 3-41) were the standouts for the Saints. Sunshine United moved to within three points of the top four with a 48-run victory over Druids. The Tigers posted 149, thanks largely to 74 from opener Thomas Duxson. The Druids were bowled out for just 101. In division 2, Keilor Park fell short by eight runs in its chase for Newport-Digman’s 5-168. Dean Gila top-scored for the Parkers with 50 in their score of 8-160. Sunshine suffered its first loss of the season, going down to St Andrews Pascoe Vale by 85 runs. In division 3, Saman Gonawala made 47 in Sunshine Heights’ three-wicket win over East Keilor.

Surprise ABL call up spurs Sunshine’s Jordan Young

Jordan Young has enjoyed a strong start to the season for the Sunshine Eagles. (Luke Hemer) 200396_18

One of the keys behind Sunshine’s blistering start to the Baseball Victoria summer league division 1 season has been the form of shortstop Jordan Young. Young has been growing in confidence in the batters box, while maintaining his typically high standard defensively in the in-field, which has seen Eagles coach Stuart Clayton label him as the best shortstop in the league. Young’s impressive start to the season was recognised at higher levels when he was recently called up to play for a short-handed Auckland Tuatara in the Australian Baseball League. The 26-year-old had long aspired to play in the ABL, but never thought the opportunity would come with anyone other than the hometown Melbourne Aces. It was a nice surprise for Young when he was called up for the Tuatara to play against none other than the Aces. “They gave me a call early in the week saying they needed a local player, so I was able to make the time and go down,” Young said. “It’s something I wasn’t expecting, but very exciting at the same time.” Young relished the experience playing with

Auckland. Welcomed to the Tuatara fold by the players and coaches, he felt comfortable from the moment he stepped into the clubhouse. “They were really good people all round,” Young said. “They all welcomed me in and enjoyed having me there. “It was very positive.” Young showed he was not there to merely make up the numbers, producing a number of quality, though luckless at-bats, before getting his first ABL hit. He was not as nervous as he envisaged he might be, which is probably to do with the fact he was coming face to face with Aces players, who he has great knowledge of through his time with Sunshine. “Playing against Melbourne, I know a lot of guys on that team, so it made it a bit easier,” Young said. “I had a little bit of knowledge on the opposition that I could use to help me prepare. “The nerves weren’t as bad as I thought it would be.” While he is hopeful of another ABL call up in the not too distant future, the Eagles’

Lions seek a big scalp

playing assistant coach is focused on taking his club side to premiership glory. The Eagles remain top of the ladder, despite a narrow 3-2 loss to Sandringham on Sunday. “We’ve got a really good team this year and our record shows that,” Young said. “We’ve got to keep it going. “I think everyone is pretty eager to go as far as we can and try and win the championship this year. “Last year we made it to the finals for the first time in quite a while in division one, so we’re keen and driven to go as far as we can.” Young will continue to play a key role for Sunshine. “I’ve been pretty consistently getting on base throughout the whole season, but in terms of clean, safe, good quality hits, they’ve been starting to come in the last five or six games,” Young said. Sunshine will play the third game of its three-game series with Sandringham at the Melbourne Ballpark tonight before turning its focus to Waverley Wildcats on Sunday. Lance Jenkinson

By Lance Jenkinson Could Saturday be a coming of age for Taylors Lakes in the Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association? A victory over perennial contenders Werribee could be a realisation that the Lions best is enough to match it with the top sides in the competition. The Lions are halfway there after marginally taking the honours on day one at Lionheart Reserve on Saturday. Lions captain Jarrod Wakeling was pleased to have seen his side bowl a potent Werribee out for 224. A hiccup with the bat late in the day – losing two wickets – put a minor dent on the Lions day, but at 2-20 with 205 more runs needed for victory, they still consider themselves in the box seat to win the match. “A bit disappointing to lose two wickets in the last four overs, but, all in all, we would’ve taken what we got,” Wakeling said. “We lost the toss, they batted on a pitch that played pretty well and to have them out for 220-odd, we were pleasantly happy with that. “They’ve made some pretty big scores this year. “If you could have a side with their talent and their ability and get them out for 224 on a pitch that was playing quite well, you’d be pretty happy.” This is all about Taylors Lakes now. The Lions have shown tremendous improvement in their batting this season to be the second ranked side for runs entering the round. Can they do it with the pressure on against a heavyweight contender? Wakeling is backing his team in. “If we bat the way we have all year, which has been our guys being very patient, keeping their head and playing very straight, I expect us to be able to chase down 224,” Wakeling said. “The weather looks like it’s going to be in our favour, it’s not going to be wet, so if we apply ourselves and bat the way we have all year, we should get 224 on that pitch and on that ground. “If we walk away and don’t make the runs, I’ll be a little bit disappointed because we probably haven’t batted the way we should.” Taylors Lakes was not exactly perfect in the field. The Lions might be made to rue the dropped catch of James Freeman when he was on a duck. Freeman went on to make 71 and was the catalyst behind Werribee’s score of 200-plus. “We did some really good things and, at times, some bad things,” Wakeling said. “We dropped some catchable catches, which

Gridiron Western Crusaders have done it again. The Craig Wilson-coached Cru made it a three-peat in the Gridiron Victoria on Sunday. A one-sided Vic Bowl saw the Crusaders thrash Monash Warriors 32-6 at Casey Fields. The Crusaders have completed three consecutive undefeated seasons.

Cricket Kealba-Green Gully went in for a quick kill in an eight-wicket victory over Aberfeldie St John’s in the North West Metropolitan Cricket Association Luscombe Shield at Green Gully Reserve on Saturday. The Cougars steamrolled Abers for 91 in 34.4 overs with Jarrod Catania leading the way with 3-0. It only took the Cougars 19.4 overs to pass the target for their third win of the campaign with Evan Long top-scoring with 30 not out. Burnside Springs went down by 40 runs to Preston Druids.

hurt us a little bit, but we did fight back well.” Wakeling was Taylors Lakes’ leading wicket taker on the day, finishing with 4-96. Though a little expensive, the spinner got crucial wickets in the middle order, including that of Freeman. “At times I bowled well, but they took to me a little bit,” he said. Wakeling made no secret that Hoa Lai was Taylors Lakes’ best bowler on the day. The left arm medium pacer took 2-25 off 18.1 overs to

be an irritant to the Werribee batsmen. “He was definitely the pick of the bowlers,” Wakeling said. “He just bowled a line and length where he just gave the batsmen nothing. “If there was a 20-cent piece on the pitch, I reckon he’d hit it more often than not.” If Taylors Lakes can chase down the runs on Saturday, it will further consolidate its spot in the top six and get a victory over a contender that it craves.

Deer Park is licking its wounds after a tough trip to Caulfield Park in the Bowls Victoria premier division. The fourth-placed Parkers went down 87-77 in an upset defeat. Deer Park will travel to Mentone looking to atone on Saturday. FOR MORE SPORT, VISIT Web: starweekly.com.au Brimbank & North West Star Weekly @starweeklysport @star_weekly

MG takes on SUV big hitters By Alistair Kennedy, Marque Motoring The Chinese-owned MG carmaker has taken another important step in its bid to make an impact on the Australian car market by opening its first flagship metro dealership, Sydney City MG. Located at Mascot and surrounded by many of the automotive big hitters, the venue was used to unveil its new mid-sized HS SUV as the replacement for its ageing and underachieving GS model. MG HS is bigger all round than its predecessor and, more importantly comes with a raft of safety, driver assistance, technology and entertainment features that combine to make it the most refined MG to date. Two variants are offered, both with the same 1.5-litre 124 kW / 250 Nm turbo-petrol engine, seven-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission and front-wheel drive. The entry-level Vibe has a driveaway price of $30,990 while the higher-spec will sell for $33,990, or just $1000 more than the listed prices of $29,990 and $32,990 respectively. The styling highlights come at the front of the car with a large honeycomb grille with chrome finish and the iconic â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;MGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; badge front and centre. The grille then flows into wide, narrow headlamps with daytime running lights above extended lower air vents, also honeycombed. Entry into both front and rear seats doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t require much effort and thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s plenty of headroom in both areas. Boot space is an impressive 463 litres with the rear seats in place and expands to 1287 litres with the seatbacks folded. The advanced safety and driver assistance features in the HS are packaged together with the clever name of MG Pilot. They include autonomous emergency braking; adaptive

yet but given that the outgoing GS received five stars itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s likely that HS will match that score. Infotainment features are displayed on a 10.1-inch touchscreen with both Apple CarPlay and Android Auto available. There are four USB inputs, two at the bottom of the front console and two at the rear. Paying the extra three grand and stepping up to the Excite model provides satellite navigation; LED headlights; 18-inch alloy wheels (17-inch in the Vibe); dual-zone climate control; rain-sensing wipers; powered tailgate; welcome lights; and a Super Sport mode that adjusts transmission, throttle and steering for enhanced driving performance. The MG HS launch was conducted entirely within the dealership and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll need to wait until the new year to take one out onto the road. Taking on such established and similarly-sized rivals as Mazda CX-5, Nissan X-Trail and RAV4 will be a huge challenge for the new MG SUV but the combination of very competitive pricing and a comprehensive safety and tech inventory makes it worth considering. Then of course thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the most recognisable badges in automotive history â&#x20AC;&#x201C; that alone will no doubt attract some buyers. MGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s policy regarding warranty is to match the best available in the country that theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re being sold in which, thanks to Kia, equates to seven years and unlimited distance in Australia. MG also provides seven years of roadside assistance.
