On their marks

Hobsons Bay Running Club is inviting the community to help celebrate a milestone on Anzac Day. Following a one-minute silence, the club will hold its 250th 5000-metre handicap at 8.01am on April 25. Formed in 1994, the social running club regularly holds runs around the Williamstown and Newport area of Port Phillip Bay. Club member Kieran Leonard (pictured) says current, past and new members are invited to register for the five-kilometre run, which will be followed by a complementary barbecue breakfast at the clubrooms, situated at the Old Gatehouse next to Newport Power Station. “We run Tuesday and Thursday nights and Sunday mornings,” Leonard said. “We’re not-for-profit and we’ve got about 65 active members.” No fees will be charged for the anniversary event, but people are asked to register in advance and confirm their presence at 7.45am at the corner of The Strand and North Road, Newport.

Load on residents’ minds An industry push to increase truck loads to more than 85 tonnes has alarmed opponents of freight on the inner-west’s roads. The proposal, put to Roads Minister Luke Donnellan by some of Australia’s biggest container transport companies, would make loads almost 20 per cent heavier than the 68.5-tonne weight limit currently allowed on arterial routes. This would enable trucks to carry two fully loaded 20-foot shipping containers and build on the former Napthine government’s green

light for trucks up to 30 metres to travel on key freight runs. A “last-mile” loophole enables freight operators to apply to access local operations via roads such as Footscray’s Whitehall Street, Yarraville’s Francis Street and Williamstown Road, and Altona North’s Grieve Parade. Container Transport Alliance Australia director Neil Chambers said the freight industry wanted trucks to operate “wherever they’re physically able” to avoid losing container trade to other states. A spokesman for Mr Donnellan said the government would always look at more efficient

ways to safely move freight around the state and would consider all industry proposals. “Victoria has a strong reputation as a leader in freight and logistics and it’s important that we are doing what we can to ensure that remains so,” the minister said. “As a government, we want to strike the right balance between boosting productivity in the freight industry yet still accommodating the needs of other road users.” Maribyrnong Truck Action Group lobbyist Samantha McArthur said the latest push failed to address the broader issue of freight movement. “The aim is to get freight off the

roads and I think the government has to get really serious about freight on rail,” she said. “We have got a quadrupling of container numbers through the Port of Melbourne by 2030, so no matter how many HPFVs [high productivity freight vehicles] you have, the number of road trips is going to rise.” Ms McArthur said there was no place for larger, heavier trucks on residential streets. “We already see the damage done … and the danger they pose from a safety perspective, with B-doubles and semis. They are not intended for residential roads; they would be a really big problem for Melbourne’s inner-west.”

Plea to help farewell children By Benjamin Millar A Footscray priest is appealing for help to pay for the funerals of three children who died when their mother’s car crashed car into a Wyndham Vale lake last Wednesday. Akon Guode’s one-year-old son Bol, four-year-old son Madit and his twin sister Anger died when their mother’s car careened into Lake Gladman in a crash that remains under police investigation. Chaplain Soma Jackson, parish priest for

the Anglican Church of Footscray, said any funds towards the funerals would help the family, who already face a heavy financial and emotional burden. “They are already struggling with this terrible loss. One of the difficulties they are facing is, normally, the community will put their hands together to help with one funeral but, with three, this will make it very difficult for them.” Father Jackson said, as well as the funerals, a memorial service would also be held a few days later for each child.

He said the family is well known through church and social occasions as happy and friendly. The chaplain said he had stayed in close contact with them throughout the past week and said Ms Guode remained devastated by the incident. “No parent would wish something like this to happen. “In our culture, the parents are living to support the children – if you needed to die to let your child live, that is what would happen, so

she feels it would be better if she died herself.” Father Jackson said Awel, the only child to survive the crash, was still recovering in hospital. Grieving father Joseph Tito Manyang said the funeral services would be open to the public. Manor Lakes’ sporting community will hold a fundraising event at Manor Lakes Football Club, 3pm this Sunday, and a permanent memorial for the three children is also planned. To inquire about making a donation, email footscrayanglicanparish@gmail.com.

Public call to ‘future’ forum What kind of suburb should Footscray become? A Victoria University public forum this month will tackle some thorny questions posed by the changing face of Footscray. VU community development academic Nicole Oke says the forum will explore the impact of rapid development and gentrification on the suburb’s traditional, ethnically diverse and working-class character. “Urban renewal not only changes what we see around us but also challenges how people feel they belong to, and identify with, Footscray,” Dr Oke said. “The shape Footscray takes in the next few years is not pre-determined.” She said services, public spaces and businesses were rapidly changing to reflect the shift in the people now visiting and living in Footscray. The forum will explore the issue of affordable accommodation, access to legal services and the use of public spaces. Dr Oke said it was vital to discuss what it is about Footscray that people want to hold on to, as well as what changes are worth embracing. “People talk about Footscray as the welcoming hub of a diverse range of communities,” she said. “They value, for example, the numerous African barbers and cafés that help African communities forge a sense of belonging in the city.” The free forum, organised by VU’s Community Development Association and its Community, Identity and Displacement Research Network, will have speakers including several researchers who work with community groups. It will be held at MetroWest, 138 Nicholson Street, Footscray, from 5.30pm on Wednesday, April 29.

Rubbish shows up as Brooklyn art the last year in East Timor, which were called scartato, which is Italian for discarded,” the artist says. “I wanted to play with it even more by exploring my local area – and Brooklyn’s kind of a bit notorious for being one of the most polluted suburbs in Melbourne. Definitely, there’s a stigma around the pollution of the west,” he said. “Overall, it’s a fun little project because I end up collecting as much rubbish as there is in the area and take it off the street.

“I did the first performance on Clean Up Australia Day. One time, I went to the end of my street in Kyle Road and I was completely covered in rubbish before I made it any further.” Performances throughout April are being filmed and will then be screened across three shopfronts at 10-14 Eames Avenue, Brooklyn, on April 30 from 6-8pm.

Kidnap sentence cut on appeal By Goya Dmytryshchak A man who kidnapped an Altona woman at gunpoint in 2011 has had his nine-year sentence reduced on appeal. Last April, John Booth was convicted in the County Court on charges of criminal damage, aggravated burglary, assault and kidnapping. He was sentenced to nine years and three months with a non-parole period of seven years. His sentence was cut to eight years and three months, with a minimum of six years and three months, after Booth appealed to the Supreme

Court. Justices David Ashley and Philip Priest ruled that the evidence of a neuropsychologist as to whether Booth had a mental disorder and intellectual disability should not have been rejected. During the trial, expert witnesses had argued about the level of Booth’s IQ and whether he had an intellectual disability or was malingering. On April 26, 2011, Booth had gone to Volt nightclub at Werribee Plaza, where his friend and another man got into an argument over the latter’s girlfriend. The dispute escalated into a fight between two groups outside the club.

Booth and his friends drove from Volt to the Altona home of the other man’s girlfriend and broke every window of her unit. He then returned with two other men early the next morning. The woman and her mother were sharing a bed because they felt insecure. They woke to find three masked men ordering them out of bed. Booth was holding a sawn-off shotgun and the younger woman was dragged by her hair from the bedroom to the lounge, as the men tried to ascertain her boyfriend’s whereabouts. When the woman said she did not know, she was dragged outside to a car and ordered into

the boot. One of the men raised his gun and fired into the air before the car was driven to Booth’s home. The woman was locked in the boot of the car for about eight hours before being released. She said her kidnappers opened the boot several times, including once when Booth wanted the phone number of the victim’s boyfriend and to throw water at her. In granting leave to appeal, the Supreme Court said while Booth’s offending was very serious, his intellectual disability would increase the burden of his imprisonment and his sentence should be sensibly moderated.

Group links council to ‘cash cow’ By Benjamin Millar Concerns are being raised about impacts on small businesses and residential areas of about 2500 new apartments slated for construction on land around Highpoint shopping centre. Maribyrnong council is seeking to rezone parts of the Highpoint activity centre, converting land now zoned as industrial to commercial or mixed use. A council document paving the way for the rezoning states the Highpoint plan envisions: a “walkable, people-friendly environment” with houses, shops, offices and cafés.

“The current zoning doesn’t allow this mix of uses. So, in order to implement the plan for a new community, the zone must change.” Building heights of up to 10 storeys have been flagged across seven precincts, with six to 10 storeys planned along Hampstead and Williamsons roads, as well as Rosamond and West roads. A report by Mark Sheppard, on behalf of the GPT Group and Highpoint Property Group, notes that pressure is mounting from developers wanting to redevelop properties. The report called for a scrapping of the council’s suggested 10-storey limit, arguing

that buildings up to 18 storeys “would be sufficiently distant from the public realm to avoid any material impact on it whatsoever”. The report also calls for a reduction in the amount of proposed open space. Robert Wiatrowski, of the Maribyrnong Residents Action Group, warned the rezoning would provide commercial and economic benefits to Highpoint developments at the expense of other retail precincts nearby. “Simply put, Highpoint is a commercial cash cow for Maribyrnong council and the council is working with the management of Highpoint developments to increase the size, scope and

financial power of the shopping centre,” he said. Mr Wiatrowski said the people most disadvantaged were the ratepayers of Maribyrnong and smaller retail precincts in the municipality. “The council is deliberately focusing its energy on benefiting Highpoint in terms of encouraging a bigger residential market around the shopping centre, deflecting shopper interest and appeal away from other retail precincts.” An independent planning panel hearing on the proposal was held late March with the panel report due in July.

Sunnies an eye-opener More than 50 short films will be screened at Yarraville this week when the Setting Sun Short Film Festival returns for its second year. The 2015 ‘Sunnies’, opening on Thursday night, will showcase 52 films across four days at the Sun Theatre and Kindred Studios. Director Anna Bourozikas says the festival will wrap up on Sunday with a Sunnies awards ceremony, where the best films and filmmakers for 2015 are proclaimed. “The festival has grown this year, with many films highlighting the people and places of the west, while a good range of films came from across the bridge and interstate,” she said. Newport filmmaker and actor Tom Vogel has two films screening at the festival. “I’ve been doing it for about 10 years now; I’ve directed 13 short films. “I’ve always been interested in telling stories. I was always interested in film but thought it

was out of my realm,” he said. “But after doing a one-week course I realised I could do it.” Vogel runs the West Side Shorts monthly short film night in Williamstown and is festival director and organiser of the decade-old Angry Film Festival. He does most of his filming in the western suburbs, including the two films being screened as part of the Sunnies. One of them is a sequel to his award-winning and Tropfest finalist film One In a Million, which is about a boy who discovers his dad is a serial killer.

T-bucket makes A-list A Seaholme man has been honoured for having Australia’s top hot rod after winning the Australian Street Rod Federation ‘nationals’ over Easter. Len Case’s T-bucket, which he finished building in 2008, has always attracted a lot of attention, but the award “blew him away”. A T-bucket is based on a Model T Ford from 1915-1927 but is extensively modified or built with replica parts. Mr Case won top T-bucket at the nationals

in 2009 and 2011 but missed out on the 2013 awards because of a back operation. The nationals are held every two years and attract entrants from all over Australia. “So this year, it was up at Newcastle in New South Wales,” Mr Case said. “I ended up getting top hot rod. There were 904 entries.” His massive trophy is a perpetual one that has changed hands for 44 years. Goya Dmytryshchak

Search on for stolen war medals By Goya Dmytryshchak

Police have released images of these men seen fleeing a Newport home where war medals were stolen. (Supplied)

War medals belonging to a veteran of conflicts in both Iraq and Afghanistan were stolen during a burglary at Newport last month. The 33-year-old former soldier was at work when two men forced open the front door and ransacked his William Street house about 1.45pm on March 29. The intruders stole military honours, including his Afghanistan Campaign Medal, Iraq Campaign Medal, Australian Defence Medal and NATO, or ISAF, Medal, which was awarded to him by the French government. The value of the medals is estimated at $20,000.

Senior Detective Olivia Dennison, of the Hobsons Bay crime investigation unit, said the medals were likely to be worthless to the thieves. “There wouldn’t be a specific place that they would directly offload them,” she said. “We’re just appealing for any witnesses to the incident and just appealing for any person that might have seen or come across the medals to get in contact with us.” Police have released images of two men seen leaving the house with a backpack. One was described as being of Asian appearance, aged 25-30, about 160 centimetres, with a slim build and short black hair. He was wearing a light-green jumper, light-blue jeans,

green baseball cap and prescription glasses. The second was described as Caucasian, 25-30 years, about 170 centimetres tall, with a solid build and scruffy brown hair. He was wearing a red jumper and grey track pants. Detectives have released images of the stolen medals in the hope they can be returned to the owner. Other items valued about $5000 were also stolen, including a PlayStation 4, computers and jewellery. Police are appealing for anyone with knowledge of the men’s identity or stolen items to come forward. Anyone with information is being urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Turk’s heartfelt tribute A Footscray community leader has helped spread a tribute to the fallen Anzacs of Gallipoli into 100 RSL clubs across Victoria. Mehmet Balikel has spent the past 18 months travelling across the state to deliver framed messages immortalising the compassionate words of Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, an army officer who became the first president of Turkey. In 1934, Atatürk wrote: “Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives … you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets where they lie side by side here in this country of ours … You the mothers who sent their sons from faraway countries, wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are

in peace. Having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well.” Mr Balikel said he pursued the project to mark the centenary of Anzac Day. “During this time I successfully completed my interest and passion of aligning the friendship between the Turkish and Australian community,” he said. The first framed reproduction was mounted at Footscray RSL. Benjamin Millar

Town planning company MacroPlan Dimasi, acting for Axcell Management Services, has applied to Hobsons Bay council to create 58 industrial lots, known as Enfield Industrial Estate, at 37-77 Ajax Road. The estate’s eastern boundary – Lot 55, which is 6.6 hectares – faces homes in Galvin Street and the north-west corner of Mount St Joseph Girls’ College. A traffic report by Cardno, prepared for the applicant, anticipates the development “could generate up to [about] 350 vehicle movements during the peak-hour period and therefore up to [about] 3500 vehicle movements per day”. One resident, who could not be named for work reasons, said there was a paucity of information about what kind of industrial development was being proposed. “At the moment it’s just an open paddock,” he said. “Morally, council shouldn’t be allowing any sort of industry in that pocket. It is purely a residential street. Now, our purely residential street may have to share it with light industry and we don’t know, no one seems to know, what the hell it is.”

The resident said no one would be able to police industrial traffic using Galvin Street to access the estate. A report prepared by MacroPlan states that a buffer zone is proposed between Lot 55 and Galvin Street homes. “A large allotment (Lot 55) is proposed at the far eastern end of the subdivision, which will interface with the established residential area and Mt St Joseph school located along Galvin Street,” the report states.

“This allotment has been designed to incorporate required buffer areas in a future development proposal.” Applicant, MacroPlan manager Paul Beatty, said the land was “appropriate for any sort of industrial development”. “There are no uses that are actually lined up for any of it at the moment,” he said. “It’s purely just a subdivision.” A 21-hectare reserve, south of the Altona rail line, is also proposed as part of the new subdivision. The proposal is being advertised by the council for submissions.

Paws to show you care By Goya Dmytryshchak A fundraising event for a dog and puppy rescue organisation is being held at Altonaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Cherry Lake this month. Kerrie Gebert, of Puppy Tales Rescue, says all money from a 3.5- kilometre walk will go to the not-for-profit group, which saves dogs and puppies across Victoria and, in some cases, South Australia and New South Wales. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The aim of Puppy Tales Rescue is to not only help the lives of dogs on death row but to stop the dumping of unwanted puppies that eventually end up on the street or on death row,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Often dogs and puppies taken in by Puppy Tales Rescue need some form of medical attention, whether itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s standard health checks or major surgery, which can be costly. Sharon Nelson, of Manners For Paws, which organised the Altona event, urged people to bring a picnic lunch and their dogs to support the cause. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m passionate about rescue because it can save the lives of animals that may otherwise be condemned to death or left starving and homeless,â&#x20AC;? Ms Nelson said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The joy of seeing a dog find their â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;foreverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; home with a loving family makes all the work we do worth it. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Social dogs on lead are welcome; grab a coffee, visit the Puppy Tales Rescue team and other stallholders and enjoy the morning out with your fur-kids for such a great cause.â&#x20AC;? The Cherry Lake Rescue Walk is on April 26 with registration from 8.30am and the walk to start at 9.30am. Registration (cash only) is $10 for adults, $5 for children and $25 for families. All registration fees will be donated to Puppy Tales Rescue. More information is at www. mannersforpaws.com.au.

Anti-abuse calls multiply

‘Dog’ activists are well-versed

By Goya Dmytryshchak A public gathering will take place at Altona beach this weekend for survivors and victims of childhood sexual abuse. Altona’s Mairead Ashcroft has organised the “free, peaceful, non-political and non-religious event”, which she’s named Innocent child of the village. Ms Ashcroft said perpetrators of abuse relied on victims’ silence, which was why talking about the issue was so important. However, she said greater media focus on childhood sexual abuse and events, such as the recent arson attacks on Melbourne churches with links to paedophile priests, could trigger painful memories for survivors. “For victims, it stirred things up,” she said. “It triggered people, and there’s a lot more in the media now that is triggering for people, and they don’t know where to go, they don’t know how to go about it because a lot of people think, I thought it only happened to me. “The media is very important because the strength of perpetuating childhood sexual abuse comes from its silence,” she said. “So, although it can be painful to hear these stories, hearing them can give people the strength to come forward. I know there are people out there who are suffering because they tell me. People are saying to me, I’ve never told anyone this before but … ” At 5pm on April 19, Ms Ashcroft will create a circle in the sand to the right of Altona pier, light candles in the centre and watch the sun go down with other survivors. “It’s just sending positive intentions out there for people and letting them know, you know, we know that this happened … and we care,” she said. “That’s basically what it is, we care. It’s not a

The campaign to save the Dancing Dog building has taken a creative turn. Poet “Initially NO” has taken to YouTube with a devotional ode to the building that hosts Westword, one of Melbourne’s longest-running poetry events. The building faces an uncertain future as it heads to auction this Saturday. Hip-hop artist “Al-flex” has also released specially written track Save the Dog, a call to action to stop Footscray Dog becoming “another Docklands”. Campaigners are scrambling to raise funds to buy the iconic Albert Street building, built in 1909 as the United Friendly Societies Dispensary. Star Weekly last week reported Biggin & Scott agent Matthew Alderman expects the building to sell for more than $1.5 million. While the campaign to buy the building faces an uphill battle, organisers have taken heart from the outpouring of community support. A Pozible crowdfunding campaign has attracted more than $51,000 in pledges, which campaign organiser Katerina Gaita said put Maribyrnong council and developers on notice. “Even in the worst case scenario, we have put developers on notice that there is strong feeling about the building in the community,” she said. More details about the campaign are at www.pozible.com/buythedog.

Emily started working for Bakers Delight as a Sales Assistant when she was just 21. At this time she was at university, studying a science degree in genetics and pathology. Despite finishing her degree, she never went on to work in a science lab. The prospect of owning her own business appealed to her and she loved her job at Bakers Delight Williamstown so set her sights on becoming a franchisee. At 25 Emily became the proud owner of Bakers Delight Yarraville and hasn’t looked back. For Emily, the decision was easy. She had witnessed firsthand the financial and lifestyle benefits on offer to Bakers Delight franchisees and the extensive training and support provided through the network. But the most rewarding part of her job is being able to work within her local community. “One of the things I really love about my job is that it’s so social,” says Emily. “It’s allowed me to get to know my local community and build relationships. I’ve also been able to give local kids their first job and watch them develop. It’s extremely rewarding.” Looking back on her transition from sales manager to franchisee, Emily reflects on how valuable the support and advice she received from other Bakers Delight franchisees was to her development into a successful business owner. “There’s so much support available through the Bakers Delight network…If you ask lots of questions and follow the processes, things will go well.” Today, aged 32, Emily has sold Bakers Delight Yarraville and now owns Bakers Delight Altona.

Friends meet to mulch on May 24. “We’re spreading mulch around the plants that we’ve planted, and we’re going to do some more planting in a month’s time,” she said. “The mulch helps to keep the weeds down and the moisture in, so it’s got a double purpose, and we’re providing habitats for birds and invertebrates along the creek, too, by putting in indigenous plants.” Sunday’s event is from 1-3pm and afternoon tea will be provided. People are asked to register at 1pm at the corner of Creek Water Close and Markham Way, Altona Meadows (Melway ref: 208 D3). For more information, visit Friends of Skeleton Creek on Facebook.

Two familiar faces are thoroughly enjoying their return to Footscray. George and Blair, who have racked up a combined 25 years collecting trolleys at Footscray Plaza, spent the duration of last year’s extensive renovations patiently counting down the days until they could get back into the swing of things. For two days each week, George travels from his St Albans home while Blair makes the journey from Tullamarine.

‘‘

I like helping out and feeling like I’m part of the - Blair team

The pair gained their positions through Wesley Mission Victoria, which arranges jobs for people with disabilities as trolley collectors for Kmart. Both pride themselves on providing a helpful service to shopping centre customers, often helping out with directions or sharing a friendly chat. George, a passionate Cats supporter, and Blair, a devoted Hawks fan, love to talk about the football and to bump into their favourite customers. “I know all the customers off by heart – talking with them makes the time go quicker,” George said. “This is the only job I’ve been doing all my life. I’ve been here since 2000 – I’ll be 65 and doing this with my walking stick!” Blair began collecting trolleys at Sunshine but made the shift to Footscray 10 years ago. “I like the interaction with the customers

George who would like to be able to contribute to their community,” she said. “With the government wanting people with a disability to be working, if there are more stores that are allowing a service like this to run from them, that’s going to give more opportunities to those people.”

Industrial emissions at Yarraville on Saturday apparently were contributed to by other chemical plants in the area, a statement issued by ICI on Monday said. The statement said: “We can only assume that a combination of emissions from chemical plants in the area, of which ICI is one, together with the particular wind direction and atmospheric conditions, caused the reported inconvenience to local residents.”

Footscray footballer Neil Sachse was a last-minute inclusion last Saturday in the match which made him a cripple. The Bulldogs’ football manager, Mr Kevin Webb, did not know until 10.30am on Saturday whether Sachse, troubled by a back injury, would play. “Neil had been having treatment for the injury received in the game against Melbourne,” Mr Webb said. “But he rang me on Saturday to say he was fit and available for the game.”

The City of Altona is financially disadvantaged because it has a lower income per household than other parts of Melbourne. Cr Les Crofts said this in evidence before Commissioner DV Moye, at a Grants Commission hearing in the council chambers last week. Cr Crofts was supporting Altona Council’s application for an Australian Government grant.

The Housing Ministry’s proposed public housing development in Cole Street, Williamstown, will go ahead following a ruling by the town planning tribunal last Friday. Anti-public housing campaigner Cr Ian Thomas said he was “devastated” but not “surprised” by the tribunal’s decision. The tribunal hearing was a “puppet show”; it appeared the decision had been made before the hearing, he [claimed].

A Century of ANZAC “Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours... You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well.” Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

There are few places in Australia where war has left a physical mark. Our war memorials, cenotaphs and avenues of honour in towns and cities across our land mostly honour those Australians who fell fighting for their country in far away places. When we talk about hallowed ground it’s usually in reference to sporting arenas. This seems almost sacrilegious when you consider the places on almost every continent, where Australian blood was spilled. Each of these is sacred but none is more celebrated than Anzac Cove on Turkey’s Gallipoli Peninsula. Gallipoli has become a major component of Australian folklore. Like any legend the narrative differs from reality in parts. The ANZACs were just part of the overall attacking force, which included British, Irish, French, Indian and of course the Turks

There have been countless words written about why Gallipoli has become such a dominant part of the national psyche – the larrikin sprit of the Diggers and the occasional demonstration of humanity between foes are among the many stories behind the legend. Critics rightly argue that such traits weren’t exclusive to Gallipoli and those who fought. However, the commemoration of Gallipoli through Anzac Day has evolved to embody every event that has shaped our military history since. This is probably why Australians and New Zealanders fortunate enough to visit Anzac Cove feel an almost spiritual sensation, even though the territory itself holds little value to our nations in the greater scheme of things. For many young travellers there’s an initial bravado, which includes looking for rusted bullet casings to souvenir and running up the sandy embankments like their compatriots did under fire. However this soon gives way to sombreness upon visiting the war graves. Walking around Lone Pine cemetery it’s the ages of the fallen who lay beneath the neatly arranged rectangular gravestones that stand out the most. The numbers 17, 18 and 19 are over-represented at Lone Pine, like it is at war cemeteries in places such as France, Libya, Papua New Guinea, Borneo, South Korea and Vietnam.

Of the 130,842 total deaths throughout the Gallipoli campaign, 21,255 were from Britain and Ireland followed by 10,000 French, 8709 Australians 2,779 New Zealanders, 1358 Indians and 49 from New Foundland.

Anzac Day acknowledges them all and everyone else who has served in every military operation involving Australia and New Zealand including recent campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan. It’s not about glorifying war but reflecting on their sacrifices and ensuring they weren’t in vain.

The Turkish/Ottoman Empire forces suffered almost double the Allied losses, with 86,692 lives lost.

Hopefully, it won’t take another hundred years to learn its harsh lessons.

There were more than a quarter of a million wounded from all sides.

David Bonnici

As horrendous the toll was, it would soon be dwarfed by the devastating losses suffered on the Western Front as the First World War dragged on for another three and a half years. Yet for some reason, this ill-fated Allied action to occupy the Dardanelles would strike a chord in Australia and New Zealand for the next century, despite later battles and wars where we emerged triumphant.

53 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ APRIL 15, 2015

WINE MARIBYRNONG.STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

The woman behind the label When it comes to wine, we choose a bottle based on the grapes, the region and maybe the vintage and the wine. The people who make the wine are usually an afterthought. Most winemakers like it that way. They refer to themselves as farmers, happy telling the story about their patch of dirt and why their wines taste like they do. But sometimes the story is the winemaker, rather than their wines. Wynns chief winemaker Sue Hodder has played a key role in some of the best, and best-known, wines made in Australia. It started at Penfolds, where Hodder went to work after finishing at Roseworthy Agricultural College in the 1980s. “Penfolds had just merged with Kaiser Stuhl, a co-op of Barossa growers, which is a label that not many people remember now, but in the ’70s and ’80s, it was a significant part of the Australian wine industry,” says Hodder. “My job at that time was to visit all the growers from Kaiser Stuhl and … rate them on quality and how they would fit into the Penfolds wines. “Penfolds was relatively small at that time. They were lucky to acquire the Kaiser Stuhl vineyards. It’s a chapter that’s not often described.” A stint in London – as for so many Aussies in the past 30 years – followed Penfolds. It included a job at wine retailer Oddbins. “At that time there were two Australian wines in the shop: Rosemount chardonnay and Brown Brothers’ red something,” Hodder says. After working wine vintages in California, Hodder returned home to stints at Seaview in McLaren Vale and Seppelt in Great Western before joining the Wynns winemaking team

in Coonawarra at the end of 1992. Six years later she was promoted to chief winemaker and inherited vineyards scattered with old, dying vines. Hodder’s promotion was followed by the appointment of viticulturalist Allen Jenkins. In 15 years the pair has carried out a massive rejuvenation of Wynns’ vineyards. “The ’90s was a beautiful decade [for making wine] – we really didn’t have to work too hard as winemakers. But we knew that we had these old vines with too much dead wood on them,” Hodder says.

‘‘ ’’

The ’90s was a beautiful – Sue Hodder decade “When Allen arrived, I think he was shocked at [the state of] these beautiful old vineyards, and we had to work out how to rejuvenate the old vines. And that’s become an enormous undertaking. We’ve also done a big replanting project in the past two years … We’ve put a lot more effort in the vineyards and the winery.” Hodder has also had to contend with her region and its flagship grape, cabernet sauvignon, playing second fiddle in the past decade’s boom in big, boozy shiraz. “In early 2000s you had to have a big wine,” she says. “The success of Australian wine was driven by the powerful shiraz and we didn’t have it.” The next challenge for Hodder and her team is dealing with climate change. “We have seen climate change in Coonawarra – it has got warmer and we have to contend with that. Over that past decade, we’ve seen our coldest, warmest, wettest, and driest years in the past 60.”

SPORT Roosters hellbent on redemption got the old boys around, leading these boys through the first grade.” Justin Bernard was the star of the show for the Roosters in their 20-point win. The second rower was superb at both ends of the ground. “His aggression when he runs the ball, it’s always at 110 per cent. His defence is outstanding and his talk is as well,” Taonoa said. Roosters captain and elder statesman Caine Sinclair made a fine start at hooker. Sinclair is one of four Roosters in the Victorian state training squad, along with Aiden Hema, Lutero Leota and Michael Bernard. Winger John Hale had a debut to remember, profiting from the forwards to score two tries. The Roosters face Werribee Bears at Haines Drive Reserve on Saturday night at 7.30 for the Tyrel Hunt Memorial Shield. It is the second season since Hunt’s tragic death. Lance Jenkinson

Dogs on a shorter chain By Lance Jenkinson Footscray is putting on its serious face this season in the Victorian Rugby Union. A neutral observer will have long been drawn to the Bulldogs’ matches for their ability to make highlight-reel plays and produce an up-tempo style, and for their daring use of the ball. But this has proven more of a sideshow than a premiership formula. The fact remains that the Bulldogs’ last Dewar Shield premiership came all the way back in 1937 so it’s simply not working at the business end of a campaign. For the Bulldogs to break the drought, new coach Justin Carroll told his players they must embrace change. Carroll is not totally against the Bulldogs using their flair, which can be a strength when applied at the right times, but he wants them to temper it. Gone are the days when the roll-the-dice long pass in the defensive half will be accepted. “They’ve got a natural flair about them and they want to throw the ball around,” Carroll told Star Weekly. “What we’re trying to do this year is choose the right time when to use that flair. “We’re trying to play a little more structured and a little more conservative but, when it’s time to go, we have the ability to do that. “Last year, they lost a number of games by a try or less, and a lot of that was on the back of errors from throwing the ball around. “We’re trying to instil into the group when is the time to be flamboyant and when is the time to be conservative,” he said. Carroll could be seen as the fun police at the kennel. He admits the new approach can at times be considered “boring” when lined up against highlights packages of yesteryear but, he says, “it’s a means to an end”. “The bottom line is, nothing will be acceptable this year unless we make the semi- finals and from there it’s a new season,” he said. “When you look at our roster, you look at our size, you look at the ability that we’ve got, a semi-final position was our global target. “The group has the faith; they honestly believe we can beat anyone.” The Bulldogs will embrace the grind this season. There will be more ball in the hands of the forward pack and less margin for error. “We’re trying to use our strengths, in particular our big forward pack,” Carroll said. “We’re just trying to rumble over the top of our opponents first and foremost.” The grind is working. The Bulldogs are

great to have local footy back but there is some bad news for WRFL division 1 clubs – Deer Park is still very good. Despite losing big names such as Thornton, Guerra, Hargrave, Barling, Ayres, Harrison and Smith, the Lions have recruited well and have emerging juniors who are going to be stars this year. Senior coach Marc Bullen admitted to us on WYN FM that everyone expected perfection from them last year with the talent they had, and they delivered it. His third year in charge might be his most challenging and exciting. All eyes will be on the Lions as they have been for the past few years. The second and third divisions will be extremely competitive and it was fantastic to see Wyndham Suns win their first-ever senior game on debut last Saturday – what a boost for the newest club in the competition. Our radio coverage of the WRFL is up and running again, with the preview show on Fridays from 5pm and match day-coverage from 1.30pm on Saturdays on 88.9 WYN FM.

■ The

VFL season starts on Friday night when Werribee will host Geelong at Avalon Airport Oval at Chirnside Park. The teams will play for the K-Rock Cup, with Werribee limping into the game with a very long injury list that includes captain Michael Sodomaco and key on-baller Tom Gribble. Senior coach John Lamont said he had 18 injured players. Williamstown starts the season away to the Northern Blues at Ikon Park and the Footscray Bulldogs will be on the new Channel Seven match-of-the-day telecast from noon at Whitten Oval as they unfurl their first premiership flag since 1954. The form of the Bulldogs seniors at the moment means they will have a top-notch VFL side running out on Saturday afternoon in front of the red white and blue faithful. It will be a special moment, after which they will face the Box Hill Hawks in a grand final rematch.

■ The

Western Bulldogs have started the AFL season much better than almost anyone could have expected with two wins. This week’s match against Hawthorn in Tasmania will be a very interesting spectacle. If you have not yet seen the mini-documentary on Bobby Murphy, A Captain’s Tale, go to the Bulldogs’ website and watch why this man is going to be remembered and revered with the likes of Doug, Charlie and Teddy. The first Inside the Kennel will be on April 21, from 6.30pm. Call 9680 6154 for bookings. Kevin Hillier

undefeated in three games with two wins and a draw following Saturday’s 24-10 win over Power House at Loft Reserve. “I’m happy with the way we’re progressing, but we’ve still got a long way to go,” Carroll said. English imports Harry Key, at flyhalf, and Danny Hartwell, at number eight, have been

superb additions for the Bulldogs, while Martin Naufahu and Frank Amituanai are the pick of the established players. Young fullback Iasaiah Leota, the son of Trevor Leota, a Samoan international who played his club rugby with Wasps, Free State Cheetahs and Stade Montois, has been a revelation.

Altona Roosters took their first step towards redemption with a convincing 30-10 win over Northern Thunder in the opening round of the Victorian Rugby League first grade on Saturday. The Roosters had a frustratingly long offseason after missing out on last year’s finals and Roosters coach Brandon Taonoa and his players are hellbent on ensuring last season remains a rarity for the once-powerhouse team. “We want to try and do better this year,” he told Star Weekly. “I thought for our first hit out, we played well. There’s still a lot of work to do, but to get over the line was a good effort.” The Roosters are young and inexperienced as the side embarked on a rebuild last season. It will be even younger this campaign, but it still has enough talent in the line-up to be considered a finals contender. “We’ve got a lot of new players in the team this year,” Taonoa said. “We’ve got a bit more youth, but we’ve still

Vikings work hard for early win By Lance Jenkinson Altona Vikings overcame a 21-point threequarter time deficit to shock last season’s preliminary finalists Werribee Districts in the opening round of the Western Region Football League division 1 at Soldiers Reserve on Saturday. The Vikings’ stirring four-point win came on the back of a five-goal-to-one last quarter and provided an early sign of their finals intentions after a big off-season recruiting campaign. Vikings coach Josh Russo was delighted. “It’s always good to start the season with a win,” he told Star Weekly. “It pays for the hard work we’ve done over the summer to get the points first up.” It was a topsy-turvy affair, with the complexion of the game seeming to turn on a whim. The first quarter was a shoot-out with 11 goals kicked, and the message at both quartertime huddles was to tighten up the defensive work. “After quarter-time, we made it a bit more of a battle, rather than the free-flowing type of game,” Russo said. The game turned into an arm wrestle with only 14 more goals kicked over the last three quarters. The first sign of breaking open the game came when Werribee Districts added to its six-point half-time lead with three goals to one in the third quarter. The Vikings, however, had the aid of a slight breeze in the fourth term and a nothing-to-lose mentality as they set about eroding a hefty deficit. Russo got one last-gasp effort from his players. “I just asked for five or 10 per cent more because I didn’t want all their hard work to go to waste,” he said. “It’s the first game; you want to build a platform to move forward, so we gave it everything; we took the game on
