Choc-a-block with taste Wine and chocolate is a union made in heaven and, of course, there’s a Melbourne festival to celebrate this decadent marriage of yum. The Williamstown Wine and Chocolate Festival is a celebration pairing the best chockie delights with wines that will have devotees of both dribbling with desire.

State push on west link The final route of the $5.5 billion Western Distributor could be up in the air for months after the Victorian government revealed two options for a new tunnel under Yarraville. Premier Daniel Andrews said last Thursday the government will spend almost $1.5 billion to connect the West Gate Freeway to Citylink and the CBD via a new tunnel under Yarraville and a bridge over the Maribyrnong River, despite earlier claims state funding would not be needed. The unsolicited proposal by toll-road operator Transurban, which would toll cars about $3 and trucks about $13, dwarfs the $680 million West Gate Distributor project Labor took to the 2014 election.

Transurban initially suggested it would pay one-third of construction costs, one-third would come from a 10 to 12-year extension to Citylink tolling, and the remaining third could come from the federal government, with no cash needed from Victoria. But Mr Andrews said the government “is providing certainty to the community” by allocating the $1.46 billion earmarked to come from federal coffers. “Although we will continue to advocate for the Turnbull government to partner with us on this project, we simply cannot wait to get on with delivering it, and we’re getting it done with or without their support,” the Premier said. Construction could begin as early as the end of next year and be completed by 2022, but no decision has been made on whether the West

Gate Freeway will connect with the Western Distributor tunnel via portals within the freeway reserve, or via ramps leading to portals closer to Yarraville village. RACV public policy manager Brian Negus said the western distributor is integral to relieving Melbourne’s crippling traffic congestion. But he also cited concerns about disruptions during construction. “It is critical that the state government and Transurban ensure that the project is staged to minimise traffic disruption on the West Gate,” Mr Negus said. Roads minister Luke Donnellan said the state government will continue to consult with residents, industry and councils on the final design.

But shadow roads and infrastructure minister Ryan Smith said the government is putting Transurban’s interests before those of motorists. “Victorians still haven’t seen a real business case for the Western Distributor,” Mr Smith said. “All Daniel Andrews has released is a document with all the detail redacted.” Western suburbs Greens MP Colleen Hartland said the funding announcement made the project seem like “a done deal”. “This makes me nervous as to how meaningful consultation will really be,” Ms Hartland said. “Will the community have a say on the design options?” ■

JK Grant funding

Altona Road

The state government will provide $100,000 funding for J K Grant Reserve. Thanks to securing this funding, Council will also receive a $25,000 grant from AFL Victoria, on top of the $20,000 in tenant club contributions. Together with the Council’s significant contribution, the total investment into the precinct will be about $1.5 million. The investment will be used to upgrade and extend the pavilion including updating changing rooms, showers, toilets and umpire facilities. The new facilities will improve access for female participants and officials, while a new office, first aid room, storage and undercover area will also be developed to support the 630 participants from the local football and cricket clubs who call the reserve home.

Work on the Altona Road reconstruction is complete. The works to the road involved preserving a section of historic cobblestone paving, thought to be laid by convict labour in the 1870s and widening the road to include a second carriageway. During the course of construction, a further section of cobblestone paving was discovered. The historical paving has formed part of the road’s median and has been recorded with Heritage Victoria. Council is now working with local bicycle user groups on a number of options to ensure cyclist safety in the area.

JT Gray Reserve pavilion

Convenient paid parking

A new pavilion at JT Gray Reserve is one step closer with Council allocating $275,000 for its design. JT Gray Reserve is the most heavily used reserve for formal sport in Hobsons Bay – with about 900 members across five tenant sporting clubs calling the reserve home. It is proposed that a future pavilion would be about 710sqm and feature four sets of change rooms, two multipurpose community spaces, canteen/ kitchen, spectator toilets, storage and a car park. Council will work with the JT Gray Reserve clubs throughout the design and construction. Over the past two years the JT Gray sportsgrounds have been redeveloped, lighting installed and the Coastal Trail realigned.

People will soon have a new option for paying for parking through the EasyPark app. From mid-May motorists will be able to use the app and only pay for the exact time they have parked. Areas that have paid parking in Hobsons Bay can be found along Nelson Place and the Esplanade near Williamstown Beach. By using this app, people will be able to control their parking from wherever they are – so if you need to stay a bit longer and you have not exceeded the maximum time allocation there is no need to run back to the parking meter for top ups. This app will give motorists more convenience as they no longer have to find coins or even get out of the car to go to a ticket machine. The option to purchase a ticket with coins

Fears over Altona school sell-off By Goya Dmytryshchak The Department of Education and Training is proposing to sell part of the Altona P-9 College site for residential development. On Monday, it advertised its request to rezone land at 103 Grieve Parade from public use to residential. The move is a worry for the Altona Community Action group. Group spokesman Aaron Hunt said selling the land to the highest bidder would compromise the potential expansion of Altona P-9 College.

“We have stated for some time that Altona is in desperate need of a full-years secondary school,” he said. “This site is the logical choice … any proposal to reduce the available land size may compromise the ability to do this properly. Urban in-fill development is set to continue in the years ahead, meaning that many more families are expected to move to the area. “It’s easy for the department to say that they could still provide a full-years facility on the remaining land when they have no intentions of ever doing it … once it’s sold, it’s too late to change their minds.”

The department maintains the sale will not affect potential for the school’s expansion. It says the two-hectare site it wants to sell, facing Belmar Avenue, has been deemed surplus to the department’s current and future needs. An advisory committee has been appointed to make a recommendation on the proposed rezoning of the land, paving the way for its sale. An information session will be held at the Hobsons Bay Civic Centre in Altona from 6.30pm on May 4. Written submissions can be made to the advisory committee until May 27. Meanwhile, another part of the school site is

being considered by Hobsons Bay council for a $7 million early years centre. The council is next Tuesday expected to vote on a proposal to close Altona, Somers Parade and Altona West kindergartens and relocate those children to a new hub to be built on the Altona P-9 school campus. The council has secured $1.6 million in state government funding towards the $6.9 million hub. The council said its proposed early years hub would not be impacted by the department’s proposed land sale as it was planned for an entirely separate section of the site.

Artists have been working on commissions in Maribyrnong council’s StreetWORKS community art project, which uses art to brighten city spaces while deterring illegal tagging. Locations include the Kingsville Post Office, the Footscray and District Angling Club, Footscray Milking Station and the carpark off Coral Avenue in Footscray, where Mayfield Palace (artists Chuck Mayfield and Júlia Palazzo (pictured) have been creating colourful creations.

Mill plan funds local projects By Goya Dmytryshchak The developer of the former Port Phillip Woollen Mill site in Williamstown will contribute almost $2 million towards community infrastructure in the suburb. Hobsons Bay council voted at last week’s meeting to set a developer contribution of $2468 for each of the 800 proposed dwellings, a total of just over $1.97 million. Under the previous state government the developer, AVJennings, would have been required to pay only $900 per dwelling, about $720,000, But mayor Peter Hemphill said the current state government changed planning regulations last June, allowing a higher developer contribution. “The redevelopment of the former Port Phillip Woollen Mill will be the most significant residential development in Williamstown over the next 10 years, with an estimated 800 new dwellings adding about 1200 new residents to Williamstown,” Mr Hemphill said. “A project of this magnitude will mean a significant increase of new dwellings in Williamstown and will certainly put increased pressures on our existing community infrastructure and services.” AVJennings bought the Waterline Place development, on the former Port Phillip Woollen Mill site, for $350 million in June last year. The company’s acting general manager, Joanne Furlong, said the company agreed to

the additional levies without hesitation as it was committed to being a good neighbour. “We believe that housing matters and community matters,” she said. “This additional funding will be invested in community facilities that will benefit almost everyone in Williamstown.”

Projects to be funded are community infrastructure for Dennis Reserve, Fearon Reserve and JT Gray Reserve, Williamstown Mechanics Institute, Williamstown Town Hall, drainage for Aitkent, Ann, Cecil, Cole, Electra and Hanmer streets, the Coastal Trail, Williamstown heritage elm tree replacement and street and park tree planting. AVJennings will also pay about $1.5 million as an open-space contribution. Save Williamstown spokesman Godfrey Moase said the residents lobby group welcomed the higher levy. “The cost of the infrastructure to accommodate this development would see a huge deficit borne by the council even at the [lower] level of contribution,” he said. “In Sydney’s west, a similar development adding to local population would incur [a charge] of between $12,139 and $20,000 per dwelling, a contribution of over $10 million.”

Art unveils tribal focus An eclectic collective of artists sharing the ‘motherhood’ thread are holding their first public exhibition in Footscray. Tribe for Art run a weekly playgroup focusing on co-creating with their children and will take over the Bluestone Church Art Space for their show Make Space | Hold Space | Claim Space. Co-leader Emily Raubenheimer said the exhibition by the group of visual artists, sculptors, dancers, writers and others explores what it means to be a mother, a woman and an artist. “When you become a mother, there is the sudden realisation that your space is shared; it fractures and is made whole again,” she said. Raubenheimer said artists who are mothers often experience guilt that creativity can seem

a selfish extravagance … but says it’s important to recognise that art is a lifeline for women who are otherwise isolated or invisible. Co-leader Claire Weigall said the Tribe for Art philosophy encourages children to view their parents making art and be given opportunities to make their own art. This has prompted a dedicated installation for children woven between the works of the mothers in the exhibition. Make Space | Hold Space | Claim Space opens at Bluestone Church Arts Space with an ‘artistic circle’ from 7.30pm Thursday and closes May 24. The opening night will be from 5pm Friday.

Heritage overlay refined By Goya Dmytryshchak Hobsons Bay council has voted to remove heritage protection from Mobil’s Altona refinery, which paves the way for the downing of a 76-metre catalytic cracking unit that was once the tallest structure in Melbourne. The refinery was used to produce lubricants and bitumen from 1949, and became one of Australia’s main petroleum fuel plants in 1954. The Altona refinery expansion project, including the installation of the “cracker”, involved 2200 workers, cost 20 million pounds, took 22 months to complete and was opened by Prime Minister Robert Menzies in 1955. The council last week voted to ask the state planning minister to amend its planning scheme to remove a heritage overlay on the site. The overlay meant Mobil had to apply for a planning permit for all buildings and works, including demolition and new buildings, even routine maintenance and repairs. When the heritage overlay was introduced in 2003, its aim was to identify circumstances that didn’t require a permit. However, this never happened. Mobil spokeswoman Melanie Saliba said removal of the overlay would cut red tape. “The heritage overlay currently adds an administrative burden to both Mobil and Hobsons Bay council,” she said. “Mobil … has an ongoing program of works to demolish and remove redundant buildings and infrastructure on site. “The refinery’s thermofor catalytic cracker, which operated from 1955 to 1997, is likely to be considered as part of this program of works sometime in the future.” An industrial heritage consultant will document the history of the refinery site.

School moves with the times Newport Lakes Primary School has been allocated $3 million in the state budget to upgrade its ageing buildings. Education Minister James Merlino on Monday announced the funding to modernise and upgrade school buildings. “Better facilities will mean better outcomes for students at Newport Lakes Primary School,” he said. “We’re making Victoria the education state, where every child has access to a great education and can achieve their potential. “I thank member for Williamstown, Wade Noonan for his strong advocacy for this project.” Principal David Moss said it was fantastic news for the school. “The school needs a refurbishment or an upgrade,” he said. “Wade’s been just brilliant in advocating for the school, working for the school over a long period of time. “It’s a school that’s in need of repairs. We do fantastic work within the classroom; it would be nice to get the sort of buildings that adapt to 21st century education. “There are some original old buildings, there are some that date back from the 1880s. “There’s one that’s 1920s,” Mr Moss said. “But they’ll be hopefully the ones that we can keep, and we can replace the old, what they called LTC buildings, that were built, I think, in the 70s.” Goya Dmytryshchak

Developer offers carpark solution By Adem Saban and Goya Dmytryshchak Parking woes at Williams Landing train station may soon be a thing of the past, with property developer Cedar Woods offering to help Public Transport Victoria find a solution. Cedar Woods development director Patrick Archer confirmed the company had proposed an interim commuter carpark to alleviate some of the stress experienced by commuters. “It’s up in the air at the moment,” Mr Archer

told Star Weekly. “We’ve offered to extend our existing carpark at the shopping centre, leading down to the same street the carpark is on. “We’re open to other options as well.” Cedar Woods’ suggestion comes as a petition launched by a Point Cook resident gains traction, with more than 1000 people pledging their support to a call for additional parking bays at Williams Landing and Aircraft stations. PTV spokesman Jake McLaughlan said potential future options to increase the capacity of the WiIlliams Landing carpark were being

investigated, and that included talking to adjoining land owners. He said the best way to alleviate parking congestion was to make it easier for commuters to get to the station in other ways. Wyndham council transport portfolio holder Glenn Goodfellow, and Hobsons Bay councillor Colleen Gates both welcomed the suggestion of more parking at Williams Landing but said more needed to be done. “This is not the answer but it’s part of the solution,” Cr Goodfellow said.

“We need more frequent trains and buses [to the station] to truly address the issue.” He said while bus patronage was on the decline across metropolitan Melbourne, Wyndham was bucking the trend, experiencing a 14.9 per cent rise in the nine months to March. Cr Gates agreed, saying an integrated solution was needed to enable commuters to get to their nearest train station. “This includes the provision of a dedicated bus and transit lane from Point Cook and more bicycle parking at all stations,” she said.

Small ideas take root People in recovery from mental health issues are among residents reaping big benefits from a Hobsons Bay Community Fund grant. The fund, which is about to call for submissions for this year, gave $27,890 in grants to nine community groups, schools and services last year. Among the recipients was Mind Australia, which received $3000 to develop a therapeutic horticultural program at Amaroo in Williamstown. Manager Elise Pointer said she got in touch with volunteer horticulturist Ash Dehnert and, together with the community, they developed a program called Turnip ’n’ Grow. “The idea is that we’re supporting people in their recovery, but also there are so many other benefits of being outside – community spirit and also skills that they can use outside of here,” she said. For clients such as Amy Nardo, who attends the weekly program, it’s more than growing

plants. “I get physical stimulation, mental stimulation and social stimulation that supports my recovery,” she said. “I also participate in the cooking program where we actually get to harvest and use what’s being grown in our Turnip ’n’ Grow program. “I feel like a proud mum when I see them grow.” Ash Dehnert said the program was very rewarding for him as a volunteer. “We started off with basic propagation, seed germination, cuttings, to get some stock up before we planted them. Then we started renovating the old beds here into new vegie patches … and it’s taken off.” Hobsons Bay Community Fund raised $20,000 at its inaugural golf day at Kooringal Golf Course, with more than 100 golfers of all abilities taking part.

The $5.5 billion Western Distributor is expected to cut travel times and bring relief to residents impacted by heavy truck traffic in the inner-west. But lengthy traffic disruptions during its construction will be unavoidable, and the final route will leave some people worse off. The project will widen the West Gate Freeway from eight to 12 lanes between the M80 Ring Road at Laverton North and Williamstown Road, and build twin tunnels under Yarraville to meet a new bridge crossing the Maribyrnong River and an elevated road along Footscray Road, linking to Citylink, the port and the CBD. The state government says Transurban’s proposal could remove as many as 6000 trucks from local streets. The new road is forecast to divert up to 22,000 vehicles a day off the West Gate Bridge and carry between 50,000 and 70,000 vehicles a day by 2031. A government business case, released in December, says the project could cut peak time travel by up to 20 minutes a day, create 5600 new jobs and deliver an $11 billion boost to Victoria’s economy. An additional 4.5km of new cycling and pedestrian paths have been flagged, including completion of the long-awaited Federation Trail. Existing truck curfews on local roads will be extended, but the government is yet to reveal whether it will bow to pressure for a blanket ban across all inner-west residential roads. An Environment Effects Statement is being prepared with the design to be finalised in consultation with the community, local government and industry.

Decisions are yet to be made on the location of tunnel entrances and the route of new ramps for fuel trucks and other dangerous vehicles to connect directly with Hyde Street. Maribyrnong council and Yarraville residents are likely to favour the longer tunnel

Little Saigon Revitalisation Project Update

Changed Traffic Conditions: Byron Street One Way Traffic Construction of the new retail and car park development, on the corner of Byron and Leeds Streets, is well underway as part of the Little Saigon Revitalisation project. To facilitate construction and minimise disruption to traders and visitors changed traffic conditions will be introduced from Monday 18 April 2016. Vehicle access on Byron Street, between Nicholson and Leeds Streets, will be reduced to one lane flowing in a westerly direction. Pedestrian Access will be maintained at all times. Access to the Little Saigon Market roof top car park will be maintained however, access will be limited to entry via the Leeds St end of Byron St and right turn exit only. The southern service laneway will remain closed to vehicles during construction with the western laneway undergoing periodic closures. If you require further information regarding the above please contact Maribyrnong City Council on 9688 0200.

option, reducing impacts on parkland and nearby houses, while Hobsons Bay council and Spotswood residents and sporting groups will prefer the shorter tunnel, which would also be cheaper and less disruptive. Hobsons Bay mayor Peter Hemphill said the

council needs to closely consider all the design options before formalising its position. “We know that the key concerns of our community relate to potential land acquisitions, impacts on local sporting facilities, excess noise, air pollution, traffic

volumes and general residential amenity,” he said. “Another issue is to receive assurances there will be minimal impacts on traffic flows in and out of the CBD during the construction phase, so as to ensure rat runs don’t develop in our

residential streets as motorists try to avoid delays on the freeway.” Consultation sessions continue this week at Altona North (Wednesday), Yarraville (Thursday) and Footscray (Saturday). www.westerndistributorproject.vic.gov.au.

MY PLACE Lesley Ould, a Laverton resident of nearly 50 years, has been described as a “community treasure”. She speaks with Goya Dmytryshchak.

I’m a ratepayer and I’m involved in everything that goes on. I’m on the Laverton Community Association, the garden club, highland dancing. I’m still a Cub leader. I think I’m too old, but the kids seem to want me there. Anything that’s involved in Laverton, I’m always on the committee or going to it or whatever, because I live here and I want to make sure everything’s OK. I was citizen of the year for Rotary and later on for Hobsons Bay. I’m lucky enough to have an OAM too – I don’t know why, there’s a lot of people who deserve it before me. What do you love about Laverton? It’s easy to get to everywhere, easy to get to the city. The train services are good. I go to the football every week, mostly on the train, so I don’t have any problems getting there. I find, even if I want to go to Geelong or if I want to go anywhere else, it’s not hard to get to or from Laverton. What would you change about Laverton? Oh, the traffic congestion of a morning, if it’s possible. Maybe just a few slight things – Woods and Lohse streets need probably a bit more of a shopping precinct for some of the older people in Laverton, because it’s a little bit hard – if you’re on one side of the railway line and that lift breaks down at the railway station,

they can’t get across to the other side. That’s probably one of the downfalls of Laverton because we’re sort of cut in two with the railway line, and it makes it hard sometimes if you’re on the other side and you don’t drive. But on the whole, it’s fairly good. The lifts have only been out a few times. But we could do with some more shops that sell everything, not only groceries, because you’ve got to go out of Laverton to get clothes or even to get a needle and cotton. What are you passionate about and why? Anything to do with kids and Laverton itself, to make sure that we get the best of everything. Remember, we were the back end of Werribee council, and then we transferred over to Hobsons Bay, which naturally you have to be the bottom end of it until you can get yourself up and running. I think we get a fairly good go with Hobsons Bay now. We mightn’t have at first, but we didn’t with Werribee at first either, but we do now, so it’s quite good. Do you have a motto or philosophy that you live by? Just to be there if anyone wants me, I suppose is my motto. If anyone asks me to do something I try and do it. If I can’t do it I get someone else to, and I certainly would like to think I’m there for all my grandchildren and great grandchildren and my family.

Bulldogs help ‘lost’ kids Father Bob Maguire and Western Bulldogs president Peter Gordon have helped local youth homelessness support service Latitude launch its ‘Belong’ campaign. The Altona-based service supports 200 young people annually in Hobsons Bay and Moonee Valley. Latitude manager Rhonda Collins said the campaign aimed to give young people at risk of homelessness a sense of community belonging. The campaign includes videos outlining Latitude’s work and how the public can donate and get involved. Ms Collins said there were only five support workers attached to her agency to service all of Hobsons Bay and Moonee Valley. “You may not know about us but if we weren’t here you’d miss us,” she said. “The young people we work with have been around the system for so long. They’re fatigued, exhausted by life.”

Father Maguire said Latitude had been successful in engaging at-risk youth by creating a sense of belonging. “I’ve been hanging around for 40 years and I still reckon there’s an ingredient missing and [Latitude] has it – the belonging thing,” he said. “It’s one thing to be homeless, it’s another thing to be placeless. “They’ve got the vaccine. The vaccine is belonging.” Mr Gordon said the Bulldogs had long supported Latitude and felt there was a great need for their work addressing issues that may lead to kids becoming homeless. “As Bob Maguire so eloquently put it, you need a sense of place in addition to a roof over your head,” he said.

Photo legend comes to town Internationally acclaimed Berlin photographer Sven Marquardt will present his work in Australia for the first time at Newport’s Substation this month. His exhibition, titled Fotografien, opens on April 28 with a one-hour talk by Marquardt and runs until May 31. Marquardt, born in 1962, started his photography career in East Berlin in the early 1980s. For 20 years he was also a well-known bouncer at the Berghain techno club, a job he said both influenced and shaped his photography, “It’s just like how the punk and new wave influenced the 80s music in East Berlin – neither a divided city nor the dictatorship could prevent that,” he said. “It was our attitude towards life, even though it was only within a small ‘scene’. “We felt some sort of ‘freedom within borders’. “‘Scene’ always means to me that you can be autonomous. It has risen from a sort of counter-culture. “My first photographs were the results of this counterculture. “Although Berghain is a club, it is also a place where a large number of artists come together. “It is both a source and a place where you can grow. “Many things flow together there. Sometimes I wonder whether it was a similar vibe in the legendary Studio 54.” Marquardt said he would not be doing any photography while in Australia. “I don’t even take a camera with me when I’m travelling,” he said. “I try to take an unfiltered look at everything and experience with all my senses. I can’t understand people, who always put an iPhone between themselves

As D Company left their base at Nui Dat at 11am on August 18, 1966, it was to the songs of Australia’s Little Patti as she entertained the fighting men, surely bringing to mind the normality of home. What their patrol would then face was not just a long, long way from the peace of home. It subsequently assumed a similar significance to battles such as Gallipoli and Kokoda: the Battle of Long Tan. D Company (100 to 225 men), in the sticky heat of the wet season, were patrolling the rubber plantations following a mortar and other heavy artillery attack on Nui Dat at 2.43am on August 17. B Company and A Company were already out searching for Viet Cong and North Vietnamese Army (NVA) firing positions and discovering weapons pits. Company D wanted to meet up with them. Despite the heat, D Company moved fast over low scrub, swamp and paddy fields as they closed in on B Company, a weary group who had been already out for hours and should have been enjoying leave that day. Meanwhile, back at the base, Col Joy and the Joy Boys were setting up for the afternoon concert. As the Aussies patrolled, they could occasionally hear the music through the trees. D Company and B Company hooked up at 1pm on the edge of the rubber tree plantation, about 2.5 kilometres from Nui Dat. B Company returned to Nui Dat, leaving D Company to resume pursuit of the enemy. Unaware of the presence of a platoon from D Company, the Viet Cong appeared in their path and, following a brief engagement, the enemy scattered. The Australians believed it was just another fleeting contact. At 16:08, shortly after resuming the advance, the platoon came under machine-gun fire from an undetected Viet Cong force, killing and wounding several men. Pinned down by heavy firepower, the now isolated platoon had to fight for their lives. The Aussies had believed they were numerically superior, yet far from clashing with a small force, the platoon had run into the forward troops of a main force regiment of Viet Cong.

14 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ APRIL 20, 2016

All the while, the monsoonal rain poured down, the ground was mud and visibility was down to 50 metres. What began as an encounter battle escalated to a clash between D Company and advancing battalions (550 to 1000 men per battalion) of Viet Cong and NVA who were trying to encircle and destroy them. Back at base, The A Company prepared to reinforce D Company, despite having got back from a three-day patrol just an hour ago. Meanwhile, on hearing the sounds of the fighting while returning to base, B Company halted and was ordered to rejoin D Company. Despite the firepower available to support it, D Company was heavily outnumbered and, as they awaited another assault, their destruction seemed imminent. The fate of the battle now rested on whether they were strong enough to repel the Viet Cong until a relief force arrived. As Viet Cong were amassing for another assault on D Company which would likely have been destroyed them, an armoured relief force from A Company, B Company and 3 Troop arrived as daylight was fading. That turned the tide of the battle. Fifteen more minutes and it would have been too late and the loss of life can only be imagined. The main Viet Cong withdrawal route was discovered after midday on the next day, moving east away from the scene of the fighting. The Australians counted 245 enemy dead, still in the plantation and surrounding jungle, with evidence that others had already been removed from the battlefield. Captured documents and information from prisoners suggested that D Company had faced some 2500 Viet Cong that day at Long Tan. Eighteen Australians were killed in the Battle of Long Tan and 24 wounded. All but one of the dead were from D Company. Carole Levy

Although the structure and governance of the Returned & Services League (RSL) are fundamentally unchanged since 1916, there’s a rich and chequered history behind the organisation, peppered with political activism and sometimes acrimonious disputes between traditionalists and progressives.

But the RSL’s essential objective has remained consistent: to honour the memory of fallen comrades; preserve the fraternity among the living; assist the repatriation and rehabilitation of returned servicemen and women; and support families of exservice personnel. However, the integration of veterans into RSL clubs never did run smooth. Veterans of the Gallipoli campaign received much honour while militia and national service conscripts for Pacific and Vietnam wars didn’t gain ready acceptance. There was a large degree of intergenerational tension and misunderstanding, an attitude that’s now at odds with how Australians and the RSL perceive all their fighting men and women.

time but when Ernest Turnbull became president for periods between 1921 and 1929, membership climbed and significant gains were made. These included employment preference for ex-servicemen, advancement of soldier settlement, improved pension benefits, the provision of homes for war widows and widowed mothers and the official observance of Anzac Day. Between 1929 and 1960, George Holland’s RSL leadership (both Victorian and Federal) led to the provision of war service homes, along with a strident position on defence and the ‘White Australia’ policy. The league was anti-socialism and barred communists from membership as well as having a powerful political voice against immigration from former enemy countries. To this day, RSL loyalty is to the Crown and Commonwealth, requiring members to keep republican views private. Bruce Ruxton’s 23-year presidency (1978-2002) was headlinegrabbing and recalled RSL outspokenness and sabre-rattling of the Cold War years. His uncompromising views nevertheless were coupled with a high-profile campaign for veterans’ benefits, keeping uppermost in the public’s mind the contributions of Australian soldiers, air force and naval forces across many theatres of war.

As early as 1916, there was bitter community debate around the issue of conscription and, in October that year, a Billy Hughessupported plebiscite on the issue was narrowly defeated. A second plebiscite the following year was also defeated under the prime ministership of Hughes and his Nationalist Party (the forerunner to today’s Liberal Party).

RSL clubs and branches are a refuge and base for veterans, while providing far-reaching support for local communities. It remains true to its motto: “Serving Still”.

The RSL’s close association with the Nationalist Party is believed to be the cause of a dramatic fall in RSL membership at that

Both agreed they were onto a winner when they attended one of the resort’s regular open days, and were impressed with the bowling facility, fully equipped gymnasium, pool, library, craft activities and much more.

There are no entry fees, no stamp duty when purchasing, and a low fortnightly site fee covers all council rates, garbage disposal and unlimited use of all the facilities the resort has to offer.

Bob and Joan placed a $1000 deposit on their new home soon afterwards and have now been happily living at Palm Lake Resort for almost two years. “We’d looked at other resorts and nothing even closely compared to what Palm Lake offers here,” Joan says. “It was a big thing for us to know that our grandchildren were able to come and visit and stay over with us. They’ve been in and shared a few laughs over a game of table tennis in the clubhouse. “We are very happy we’ve made the move.” Palm Lake Resort Truganina has an indoor heated pool and spa, a luxurious 50-seat air-conditioned

JAMIE MACMILLAN NORTH MELBOURNE FOOTBALL CLUB PLAYER FB: How would you rate your cooking skills? JM: Average to above average. FB: What is your signature dish? JM: Stir fry. FB: If you could only have one more meal, what would it be? JM: A rich tomato soup followed by roast lamb cooked to perfection, finished with a dessert of rich, creamy cookies-and-cream ice-cream. FB: What is your favourite food TV show and who is your favourite TV food person?

BY GEORGE, IT’S ALMOST HERE Jamie Macmillan isn’t the only George Calombaris fan around here. I’m counting down the days until George opens his third Hellenic restaurant, this one in Williamstown. It’s tipped to be up and running by mid-June.

JM: I’m a MasterChef man. I admire the work of George Calombaris. FB: What is your favourite food? JM: Sushi. As always, if you have any recipes, tips or other info you’d like to share, email me at sarah@ howdypartnersmedia.com.au

I’m a big fan of balsamic vinegar. I mix it with extra virgin olive oil and dunk crusty bread in it. I splash it on salads. I pour it onto pan-fried, shredded purple cabbage. It’s a bit like a science experiment … I find the vinegar turns the cabbage from deep purple into a beautiful, blushing shade of pink! Having noticed “balsamic reduction” becoming a bit of a trend on TV cooking shows, I thought I would have a go at making some myself. It’s really just a concentrated, thicker version of balsamic vinegar that’s made by cooking down the vinegar until it reduces, intensifying the flavour. But then I happened to stumble across something simply fabulous at the supermarket – Moro Gourmet Italian Glaze. Sweet, sticky and denser than regular balsamic vinegar, it gives meals a sophisticated touch. You can drizzle it over everything from pizza to chargrilled meats and vegies, or even try it on strawberries for a dessert idea with a twist. I had a friend over for lunch at the weekend and made a simple salad of spinach, roasted pumpkin and fried haloumi cheese. I drizzled the Moro Gourmet Italian Glaze over the top – my friend was in awe. She said it looked like something out of MasterChef – and it tasted as good as it looked.

FB: What is your favourite drink? JM: Gatorade. FB: Which five people would you most like to invite to dinner? JM: Barack Obama, Shaun Atley, LeBron James, Tom Brady and Leonardo DiCaprio. FB: Do you have a kitchen tip for us? JM: Pre-boil your water in the kettle before you place it in the pan. Saves you time and gas.

THE MILL, NEWPORT

SCHOOLS

THE MILLNEWPORT A property market comparison between bayside suburbs of St Kilda in the south-east and Newport in the inner west throws up interesting statistics revealing both differences and similarities. It also shows just why savvy house buyers and investors are paying attention to a CBRE boutique project, The Mill in Newport. They want to get on board the inner west property express, reports Carole Levy.

N

ic Cuni, director of residential projects with CBRE, says Newport not only matches St Kilda in terms of city commuting and lifestyle, but beats it hands down in property prices. “Everyone seems to be turning on to the west’s attractions, which is creating a hot market,” he says. “When you consider that the median price for a two-bedroom unit in St Kilda is $569,000 compared with $454,000 in Newport, that $115,000 differential is a huge budgetary incentive – and an important dissimilarity between the suburbs. “In terms of city commuting, there’s little difference, with public transport, cars and bikes taking roughly the same travel times and with similar ease. The median age in each suburb is 20 – 39, while Newport has nearly as many families as singles and St Kilda has 80 per cent singles. “St Kilda has The Esplanade, we have The Strand waterfront, plus Yarra River; St Kilda has its Botanical Gardens, we have the extraordinary Newport Lakes Reserve. The number and nature of sporting facilities in the Newport area are greater than St Kilda’s by a big margin. Schools? Each has a P-12 private school and two to three primary schools, while Newport also has a P-12 government school.” This year, 295 two-bedroom apartments changed hands in St Kilda, whereas in the same period, Newport had 18 sold. “There’s a shortage of apartments, especially new and off-theplan, in Newport and neighbouring suburbs,” Nic explains, “which makes The Mill [a boutique development of 39 homes] almost a no-brainer as an investment, or for downsizers, first-home hunters and executive couples. “Inner-ring west really has it all going on.” For more information, please call Nic Cuni on 0424 523 532 or visit www.themillnewport.com.au.

On the coveted south side of Williamstown and a handful of blocks from The Esplanade, this cute Victorian has a large backyard that makes it ripe for extension – or one of the vertical kind, subject to council approval. Right now, however, it’s all bright and modern with square-set cornices (on high ceilings), neutral wall paint and a mix of honey-toned floorboards and off-white floor tiles combining with picture rails, a bay window and a gorgeous cast-iron fireplace and original mantelpiece. Two large bedrooms share a fully tiled bathroom/European laundry that is smart and modern. The kitchen has oodles of white cabinetry and a stainless-steel under-bench oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher. French doors open from the kitchen to a deck shaded by a sail and a lovely old tree, one of several in the appealing backyard that has a storage shed. A split-system and off-street parking for one car are other drawcards.

In a quiet, sought-after pocket bordering West Footscray, this semi-detached duplex with terrific parks nearby has been designed with artistic flair and has a neutral colour palette, honey-toned floorboards and stylish fittings. Two bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and one has a chic feature wall. The bedrooms share a sleek bathroom with a free-standing tub and timber vanity unit with square raised basin. In the spacious family-meals zone, the kitchen has gunmetal-grey cabinetry and plenty of bench space. A pretty, north-facing courtyard with grass and a timber deck has a mural feature and retractable awning. Also out back is a studio that could be used as a small office. The lock-up garage has access to an outdoor shower and laundry. The property is within relaxed walking distance of schools, shops and cafes and has an easy route to the city.

SPORT Spotswood had to wait a week longer than the rest of the Western Region Football League division 1 to play its first game of the season, taking out its frustrations on St Albans with a hard-fought eight-point win at Kings Park Reserve on Saturday. The Woodsmen were champing at the bit after drawing the bye in round one and came out with all guns blazing to open up a 25-point quarter-time lead over the Saints. The boys in green-and-gold managed to build on their lead to head to three-quarter time with a commanding 31-point lead. It was then that the Woodsmen’s lack of match fitness perhaps caught up with them. They held on grimly to four premiership points as the Saints charged home with 11 scoring shots to three in the last term.

In a division 2 tussle, North Footscray lost to Caroline Springs by seven points at Hansen Reserve. Yarraville-Seddon eventually found a way past Glenorden by 19 points at the Yarraville Oval. West Footscray showed some encouraging signs but was still comfortably beaten by 54 points on its trip to Manor Lakes. In division 3, Newport Power celebrated its first home win, thumping Braybrook by 104 points. Parkside was upset at home by Sunshine Heights, despite six goals to star Brent Kelly in the nine-point loss, while the new-look North Sunshine beat Laverton by 41 points. Lance Jenkinson

Pressure mounts as Phoenix fails By Lance Jenkinson Surely, the only way for Altona East Phoenix is up. The Phoenix already hit rock bottom in Saturday’s 6-1 drubbing at the hands of Sydenham Park. An out-of-sorts Phoenix finished its Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 1 game at the Paisley Park Soccer Complex with just nine on the field, after red cards went to Josh Martignago and Matthew Napoli. Phoenix president Jim Dimitriou insists his club’s rough form is only temporary. “It’s a long season,” Dimitriou said. “We’ve been a bit disappointing, but our squad is still finding its feet. “We’ve got quite a few new players, so hopefully, in the next two or three weeks, we can start hitting our straps.” The fixture makers have certainly not been kind to Altona East. All three teams the Phoenix faced are in the top half of the table. They picked up a point against Banyule City in the home opener in round one, but it has turned pear-shaped from there. There was no contest in their second round game against champions Western Suburbs, coming home with a 3-0 defeat. The five-goal defeat by Sydenham Park only compounded the woes from the week before. And there is no respite on the horizon either, with a difficult away game against Keilor Park

on Saturday. The Phoenix have plans to address their needs in the transfer market before it’s too late. “We’re still looking to strengthen our squad, at least another two players,” Dimitriou said. “We want another good striker … and possibly a quality defender.” There is unlikely to be any protest from the Phoenix over the red cards. Martignago was the last man and denied a scoring opportunity, while Napoli was given his marching orders for a crude tackle. In better news, veteran Soner Kul played his first game of the season for the Phoenix and came out unscathed. Yarraville Glory has moved up to fourth after a 3-2 win over Diamond Valley United at McIvor Reserve. Altona Magic remains on top, with an unblemished record after a 1-0 road win over Banyule City at Yallambie Park Reserve. In state league 2, Altona City enjoyed a 2-0 win over Heidelberg Stars, after goals to Craig Moss and Marcus Slimane. In state league 3, FC Williamstown claimed its first win of the season, thrashing Geelong Rangers 3-0 with Gorgi Niceski, George Iliovski and Aleksandar Dimitrijevic scoring. It was Dimitrijevic’s third goal in as many games. A double to Branko Durand lifted Melbourne City to a 3-2 win over Upfield.


Flags unfurl in new year

IN THE DOGHOUSE

By Lance Jenkinson

■ The Fevolution came to the west with spectacular results on Saturday, when Brendan Fevola made his WRFL debut for Deer Park. And I have to say it was not his 10 goals that caught my eye, although some were brilliant. It was his interaction with his teammates and supporters that was worth whatever he is being paid by the Lions. It was reminiscent of the Tony Lockett days at St Kilda, when the crowd would move from behind the goals at one end to the other just to watch Plugger kick. Fev high-fived the kids after goals and posed for photos and signed jumpers and autographs after the match. I watched him on the ground during the warm-up and he was genuinely having fun with his new teammates. ■ While Fev was running riot in Deer Park, another former AFL star, Mark Williams – now playing coach of third division side Newport Power – was also on his way to 10 goals in the team’s first senior home game. It’s certainly a star-studded start to the WRFL season. ■ Junior football in the west is in an interesting position and the dynamic is different as you go from suburb to suburb, club to club. I’ve received several emails regarding the state of junior footy and there’s no clear-cut solution. A club like St Albans is looking for players to fill out a team in the under-9s and under-15s and if they don’t do it soon, these kids will be lost to footy. Contact the club if you have potential players. Wyndhamvale can’t field an under-17 team yet are in a huge growth area. Is it the fees, the scheduling of games or the commitment of training and playing and the availability of parents to be the taxi? There’s a huge push for girls’ and women’s football, which I think is good and healthy for the code. My concern is the drop-off in numbers in the older boys’ age groups and the standard of the competition, which, in my opinion, has plummeted.

Leigh Masters extends to take a strong mark for Williamstown. (Shawn Smits)

Vikings not there to make up numbers Altona should not be putting a ceiling on what it can achieve this season, according to new senior coach Saade Ghazi. The Vikings’ pass mark is to achieve more wins than last season, a target that would again get them into the Western Region Football League division 1 finals. But for Ghazi, making finals isn’t enough – he wants to win them. “Our expectations are that we want to win enough games to make the finals,” he said. “If we don’t do that, I think we will have under-achieved and I wouldn’t be happy as a coach. “I always coach for finals … the club, having made finals last year, aims to make the finals and win a final.” Altona stalled out of the gates, losing its first game in a tight contest with last year’s runner-up, Werribee Districts. Having rested up after the bye last weekend, the Vikings have a tricky second-game

encounter with St Albans at Grant Reserve on Saturday. The Vikings can ill afford to drop two straight at home. “It becomes super-crucial for us,” Ghazi said. “You don’t want to lose your first couple of games, especially at home. We’ve just got to win some games early to get the confidence up.”

Ghazi is a Williamstown Football Club legend. In 2014, he was inducted into the Seagulls’ hall of fame – hardly a surprise, considering he won the JJ Liston Medal for best-and-fairest in the VFL, a club best-and-fairest, was a member of the team of the century and captained the club. He has plenty of coaching experience at local level, too, having led Epping and Avondale Heights. He took the Seagulls reserves to the 2008 premiership and the Port Melbourne reserves to a flag four years earlier before taking over as senior coach. Ghazi’s business sense helped secure him the Altona job. “It’s about bringing in sponsorship, some new recruits and looking after some of the young kids coming through,” he said. “It’s the whole package.”

■ The Western Bulldogs have been hit hard by injuries early in the season and while we won’t be seeing the likes of Bob Murphy and Jason Johannisen for a while, we may see Lukas Webb, Bailey Dale, Tom Campbell, Will Minson, Fletcher Roberts or a dozen others, and that’s not a bad thing. It was great to see Dale Morris captain the side last week, a very fitting accolade for a true team man.

It will be remembered as a proud day for Williamstown Football Club, even if it ended on a sour note. The Seagulls had the rare opportunity to unfurl not one but two Victorian Football League premiership flags from last season on Sunday. In front of adoring fans at Burbank Oval, the senior and development league teams had a last chance to reflect on a job done well last season. Seagulls’ football manager Chris Dixon told Star Weekly past players had come along and club legends Gerry Callahan and Ray Smith unfurled the flags. “It was a wonderful day for the club off the field, but we were disappointed we couldn’t match it on the field,” Dixon said. It was a day for the stinging Box Hill Hawks to exact revenge on the Seagulls. The Hawks came out with a plan to physically unsettle the Seagulls, and it worked early on, giving the visitors an early lead in what was arguably the most telling period of the game. “They brought a lot of heat to the contest early on and we took a while to adjust,” Dixon said. “The disappointing thing from our end is we didn’t bring that effort and intensity early … and it allowed them to get a bit of a jump on us.” The Seagulls took a 10-point lead in the final quarter, but the Hawks went on to win with a withering four-goals-to-nil in the last quarter. “We’re disappointed we didn’t use the ball better,” Dixon said. “I reckon we’ve had five or six shots that ended up on the full or touched on the line, so if we used the ball a bit better inside 50 and defended their transition, the result might’ve been a bit different.” Michael Gibbons was at the forefront again in the Seagulls midfield. He certainly enjoys playing against the brown and gold. “Two really good games against Box Hill,” Dixon said. “His draft prospects continue to shine. Hopefully, there’s more AFL clubs looking at him.” Sam Dunell was outstanding on the forward line with four goals, while Dylan Conway bobbed up with three at crucial times. Sean Hetherington finished with two goals after a stellar performance on the wing and Brett Bewley’s booming kicks were a feature off half-back. The Seagulls face top side Casey Scorpions at Casey Fields on Saturday night. “It’s going to be a really important game for us,” Dixon said. “We’ll be looking for a response, looking to bounce back.”

points and seven rebounds in just 17 minutes of action. The Gators are 2-2 on the season and face Coburg, a team with an identical record, at The Swamp on Sunday. In men’s division 2, Altona Gators succumbed 102-79 to Pakenham. The Gators were never in the hunt after trailing by 19 at half-time. Joey Mausar, Justin Eckhardt and Brent Radoslovic were the leading scorers, with 14 each. Lance Jenkinson

West women hold court The western suburbs dominated over the opening three rounds of Hockey Victoria’s women’s premier league – Altona and Footscray are both undefeated and occupy the top two spots on the ladder. Altona came from a goal down at half-time to beat MCC 3-1 at Sugargum Drive on Saturday. Captain Danielle Schubach, Lisa Schrock and Emma Hatton found the back of the net for the A’s. Footscray won a seven-goal thriller 4-3 over Mentone. Tegan Purser fired in a double, while

Bethany Russ and Tara Hall completed the dose for the ladder-leading Bulldogs. In the men’s premier league, Altona broke through for its first win of the season, edging out MCC 2-1 at home. Patrick Phillips and Tim Sheahan found the back of the net for the A’s. But it was another barren weekend for Footscray, losing 4-1 to Powerhouse/St Kilda. Justin Ellis was the Bulldogs’ lone goalscorer. Lance Jenkinson

Altona has claimed its second win of the Big V basketball women’s division 2 season in emphatic style with a double-the-score 83-41 win over Pakenham Warriors at Cardinia Life YMCA on Saturday. The Gators dominated from start to finish, which allowed court minutes to be spread around the team late in the game. Stacey Procak was the Gators stand-out with an efficient 17 points and 13 rebounds. Alysha Carden-David maintained her rage with 19 points and 11 rebounds, while Nadine Collins well and truly chipped in with 16

Everyone at Western Jets breathed a collective sigh of relief when youngster Blake Graham made a successful return, despite a 10-point loss to Sandringham Dragons, in the TAC Cup at Burbank Oval on Saturday. Graham booted three goals only three weeks after finishing the Jet’s season opener in an ambulance with a serious concussion and no feeling in his legs, thankfully temporarily. After his all clear to return, Graham played more than a bit-part role. “It was an enormous relief,” Jets’ coach Torin Baker told Star Weekly. “He had the week’s break, he was seen by a specialist and cleared, so it was good to see him back on the field. “He got on the scoreboard with three goals and just seems to find a way.” But the Jets could not harness their positive energy and turn it into a victory. They charged home with four goals to one, with the breeze at their backs in the last quarter, but the deficit was just too much. The wind ruled strongly at one end all day, but it was the Dragons ability to score three goals that proved the decisive factor. “Sandringham got out in the first and the third quarters, and we were pegging them back

in the second and fourth,” Baker said. “The two goals we conceded against the wind in the second quarter ended up being quite telling at the end of the game. When you lose by 10 points, it is probably, in the end, the difference. “Overall, I was really pleased with our effort, we had more inside 50s and won the clearances, but we just wasted some opportunities going forward.” Connor Griffiths impressed for the Jets. The onballer is hard and a smart user of the ball. “I’ve been really impressed with the development in his footy from last year to this year,” Baker said. “He was a consistent four-quarter performer, and when we were challenging at the end, he was a big part of us getting close.” Alex Bouris’s forward defensive pressure was a feature for the Jets, while athletic key defender Ryan Carter produced a number of goal-saving intercepts. Brandon Lester, who had his 2015 season ruined with a broken collarbone, booted three goals. The Jets will simulate an AFL-style fly-in, fly-out of Brisbane to take on Queensland in Aspley on Saturday. The team leaves Friday, plays at 10.30am Saturday, and returns that afternoon.“

Falcons’ star set to swoop again By Lance Jenkinson City West Falcons goal shooter Kath Knott is the reigning Victorian Netball League championship division most valuable player, but her desire to improve has never been stronger. Knott remains the top finisher in the competition and the focal point of the Falcons’ attack, but she insists she can get even more out of herself at the age of 28. “I still learn something new every time I take the court,” Knott said. “Although I won the league MVP last year, I told [coach] Marg [Lind] that I want to develop again as a player, I want to learn something new and she was like, ‘alright, let’s do this and this’.” City West is the envy of the competition because of its ability to keep up with the Joneses. Ever since the VNL’s inception, the Falcons have been a force and are there when the whips are cracking at the pointy end of the season. In Knott’s six years with the Falcons, the club has managed to overcome setbacks like injuries and representative call-ups. They have also rebuilt on the fly, tapping into their rich talent pool of youngsters. Knott believes the Falcons stay at the top because of the ability of the coaching staff to engage with their players and keep them stimulated at training. “There’s that two-way communication between coaches and the players,” Knott said. “They always make it exciting; they always make it challenging. It’s different every week.” There is a whole heap of question marks hanging over City West again this season. Can they overcome the mental scars of two heartbreaking grand final losses in two years? Do they have the depth to cover a defensive end decimated by departures?

Knott is backing the Falcons to deliver once again and remain in the premiership hunt in a transition year. “I guess the club has been so strong over the years because of the depth of juniors coming through,” Knott said. “It’s such an elite environment that players do develop quickly. “I guess it’s a new challenge for us. It’s something I’m excited about because I like new challenges. I’m looking forward to it.” Knott has reached the top of the sport, playing ANZ Championship with Melbourne Vixens and Australian Netball League with Victorian Fury. While she remains sharp on the court, Knott does not expect to reach the heights of the trans-Tasman league again, believing selectors have more than likely moved on. “I’d love to but I’m getting older and the coaches at the next level are looking at younger players coming through so they can develop them and have the next Sharelle McMahon or Sharni Layton,” she said. Knott will get the chance to play alongside her younger sister, Julia Woolley, in the attacking circle this season. Woolley missed the opening round loss to Boroondara through concussion but should be back for the round 2 battle with ACU Sovereigns. The pair will pose more than a few headaches for oppositions this season. “I think she brings out the best in me and I hope I can bring out the best in her,” Knott said. “We’ve been playing in the same team since we were seven and nine years, so we’ve got a connection that’s been built across those years. “There are sneaky look-away passes every now and then. I know when she’s going to pass it but the defenders don’t and I’m like ‘how do you not know that!’ ”

Pics for illustration purposes only.

Little cars with a boot aren’t normally as popular as the hatch versions but I reckon Mazda is on a winner with the Mazda 2 sedan. For a start, it looks good. The boot doesn’t look like an afterthought and it has more than a passing resemblance to it’s graceful Mazda 3 and 6 siblings. Its form is matched by function with a huge (for its class) 440-litre cargo area hidden under a small boot lid considerably bigger than the 250-litre cargo area at the back of the hatch. Inside This feels pretty roomy for a compact car. The front seats are comfortable. Legroom is at a premium in the back but there’s plenty of arm and headroom for two adults. As you’d expect from Mazda, the interior is well put together. The interior designs of many small cars go too far in trying to appeal to younger drivers but this has a nice general appeal to it. For the driver, the Mazda 2 Maxx has extras such as the seven-inch touch screen that sits on the dash in place of the standard entertainment unit with buttons in the base-model Neo. The main gauge cluster in front of the steering wheel looks good, though the LCD displays on either side of the speedometer that show the tacho, fuel contents and trip computer info can be difficult to see on a bright day. The entertainment system syncs quickly to your phone or device via Bluetooth, the reversing camera is clear and the in-built satnav works fine. The touch screen can be hard to reach while driving so there’s a little control knob on the centre console that’s easy enough to use. It does take a while to input your destination into the satnav. There are buttons on the steering wheel to

control volume and select songs, radio stations and entertainment mode, as well as phone, trip computer and cruise control. The air-conditioner is how I like it – nice and simple – and it’s pretty powerful for a little car. There isn’t too much storage in the centre console – one of my first-world pet hates is when a car has push-button start but nowhere convenient to leave your keys while you drive. There’s a couple of cup holders and a small pocket in front of the gear stick as well as the usual door pockets and glovebox. Driving For this rev head, compact cars aren’t usually the most exciting to test drive but I quite enjoyed driving the Mazda 2. It goes well, has nimble steering but doesn’t feel as floaty as some small cars. It even has a throaty, sports-car-like exhaust note. The 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, SKYACTIV-Drive petrol engine is more than enough and is quiet economical despite revving well beyond 2000rpm at 100km/h in sixth gear. The manual version I drove was zippy. The gear shifting felt a little loose and it was a little too easy to accidentally slip into reverse gear – not much fun at traffic lights. It has i-stop which stops the car when idling. I don’t usually like this feature but I must admit that when I first picked it up, I didn’t realise it was even engaged as the engine is so quiet. The engine starts instantaneously when you lift your foot off the brake. Safety features include hill-start assist and Smart City Brake Support, which senses a potential collision and primes the brakes so the car stops quicker when you stomp on the pedal. If you’re too slow, it will stop automatically to reduce the impact. Mazda 2 pricing starts at $16,990 drive-away for the Neo and $19,690 for the Maxx.
