Willy fights for RSL By Goya Dmytryshchak

From behind the lense: a real beauty Altona Meadows resident Lucia Hou is not used to being on the other side of the lens, but she may have to get used to it. Ms Hou recently won the people’s choice award at the Mrs Globe Australia pageant. The Mrs Globe pageant is the largest charity event for the Women In Need (WIN) Foundation, and celebrates its 20th year this year. The pageant is open to women aged 25 and above and, for the past four years, the WIN Foundation has partnered with the Bully Zero Australia Foundation, which is how Ms Hou became involved. “I do photography at all of their (Bully Zero) events, and they asked me to apply for Mrs Globe,” Ms Hou said. “I actually resisted it three times. “I don’t wear make-up 90 per cent of the time, so I’d be the last person to apply for something like this. “But this pageant is more about inner beauty, so I guess it was a better fit.” From 25 contestants, Ms Hou won the Mrs Coral Sea title, as well as the peoples’ choice award, putting her in the limelight for the international title in Hainan, China. “It was a real eye-opener to be on the other side of the camera, and now it’s a real thrill to go to my father’s homeland for the first time for the international competition.” Ms Hou said she is especially proud to represent Australia on her first visit to China. “It’s a beautiful thing for me to represent Australia as a bit of an Asian-Australian fusion at this event,” Ms Hou said. “The best thing about Australia is we’re so multicultural, we’re the most liveable country in the world, with the best cafes and the best people, so I’m quite proud to represent all of that.” The winner of the Mrs Globe international contest will be announced on December 11.

The Williamstown community has vowed to keep its RSL sub-branch alive. Hundreds fronted a community meeting at the Williamstown RSL club on Monday night, where members voted unanimously to keep an active RSL sub-branch in Williamstown. Star Weekly has revealed that Williamstown RSL Club will close on January 3 due to a multi-million debt. Monday’s meeting heard that the club’s trading arm owed $1.77 million, while the sub-branch owed a further $1.738 million. RSL Victoria chief operations officer Brian Cairns told the meeting that the sub-branch must repay $1.77 million of its debt before it can re-establish. The meeting was told that the debt resulted from “bad trading practices” by the former committee of management, which resigned in October 2013. Williamstown MP Wade Noonan told the meeting that he could not imagine Williamstown without an RSL. “We as a community I think have to resolve to fight to retain the Williamstown RSL here in Williamstown, and that is something that I’m prepared to put my hand up for,” he said. Hobsons Bay councillor Peter Hemphill said the land had been gifted to the community in 1919, saying the community has “some sort of ownership to some degree of this land”. He said the council would do everything in its power to keep the RSL sub-branch in Williamstown and ensure it “not only functions as a club, but also has a place to call home … and we hope that it’s still here on this site”. Past Legacy president 99-year-old Ella Bambery said the club’s closure was very upsetting. “I look at this glorious room … our husbands’ photos on the wall, and I could cry.” Williamstown RSL vice-president Rob Rowe promised there would be no surrender. “My uncle’s up on that wall there too,” he said. “My father came back from the second world war and drank himself to death … aged 52. We know how important the RSL is. “I promise you, we will fight to keep the RSL in Williamstown.” The meeting heard that RSL Victoria had been working with Grocon to develop the club site, carpark and adjacent house – jointly valued at $4.5 million – into a five-storey apartment block, with the sub-branch at ground level, to pay off the debt. However, the meeting was told the project was not viable because the house was found to have a heritage overlay.

Super crew boosts ambo response By Benjamin Millar Faster response times to medical emergencies are expected in Maribyrnong following construction of a new ambulance ‘super response centre’. A new 24-hour paramedic team, featuring a new ambulance and 14 full-time equivalent paramedics, will be added to the area as part of a $500 million spend that will employ 450 extra paramedics over the next three years. Footscray MP Marsha Thomson said Maribyrnong’s new ‘super response centre’ will boost capacity and cut waiting times via extra

paramedics who can support local paramedics during periods of peak demand. “This means there will be extra capacity for emergencies such as the thunderstorm asthma event,” she said. “We will be able to build up capacity and better manage workload needs.” Ms Thomson said the location of the new ambulance station was yet to be finalised, but she hoped construction could begin sooner rather than later. “There will be a lot of consideration in the siting, but the intention is to move as quickly as we can.”

She said the increase in paramedics would be backed up by a $50 million boost to hire more clinicians and open more beds at hospital emergency departments. Health Minister Jill Hennessy said the spending was the biggest investment in the service in Victoria’s history. “In a medical emergency, every second saves lives. That’s why we’re ensuring people in Maribyrnong get the right emergency care, quickly, when they need it.” Ms Hennessy said the timing of the announcement was unrelated to last month’s thunderstorm asthma event.

Quirky sights, sounds and smells abound in a free Christmas playground designed to hold a new discovery at every turn, from mirror illusions and a candy cane jungle to scratch and sniff walls.

A cyclist was wearing high-visibility clothing and riding in a bike lane in West Footscray when he was hit and killed by a driver who allegedly then removed his own clothing and fled, a court has heard. New Zealand national Peter McGuffie, 54, died when hit from behind while riding along Barkly Street about 3.15pm on June 23. Mr McGuffie was wearing a fluorescent vest and kneepads and the visibility and road conditions were good, Melbourne Magistrates Court heard last Wednesday. “It was one of those situations where one could ask the rhetorical question, ‘how could you not see him’,” prosecutor Sandra MacDougall told the court. Police allege Matthew Terrance O’Connor, 27, was seen driving erratically before his ute hit Mr McGuffie. Mr O’Connor, who is charged with culpable driving causing death and the alternate dangerous driving causing death, as well as hit-run offences and breaching bail, applied for bail last Wednesday, but was refused and remanded in custody. Ms MacDougall said that after the crash, Mr O’Connor was seen removing his work overalls and was photographed by a witness leaving the scene. In refusing bail, magistrate Franz Holzer said Mr O’Connor was driving while his licence was suspended and had accrued 28 demerit points. Defence counsel Christopher Terry called on Mr Holzer to consider the long delay Mr O’Connor faced before a trial, as his committal hearing was not scheduled until June.

New cop shop in police build-up By Goya Dmytryshchak Altona North police station is among 10 statewide to be replaced over the next four years as part of a $2 billion police funding agreement signed on Sunday, the largest in the state’s history. Under the agreement, 2729 officers will be recruited over the next four years, while four metropolitan stations, including Wyndham, and six regional police stations will be replaced. Specialist units will also be established in

youth crime, family violence and frontline policing. The details of replacing Altona North station, including timing, are yet to be established. Premier Daniel Andrews said the new police came on top of 406 funded in the 2016-17 budget and included 415 frontline and specialist family violence officers and 42 youth specialist officers. “Recent events, and recent trends, have demonstrated to us that the boom and bust cycle of police recruitment is not the way to

’’

fight crime and keep our community safe,” Mr Andrews said. Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton said the outer west had been identified as an area where police services had been “well and truly stretched”.

He said more police and a new staff allocation model would help police meet growing demand in growth corridors over the next four years. “The staffing allocation model is designed to give police a good understanding of what our future policing needs are, what our frontline requirement will be in to the future,” he said. “It takes into account factors associated with population growth, calls for service, the types of calls for service, and other socio-economic factors associated with delivering policing services to the community.”

A street tells its stories The untold stories of an eclectic Footscray street are being unearthed through a creative writing project. Nicholson Street Now, a website created by Victoria University professional writing and editing students, explores the people and passions behind the street, which runs through the heart of Footscray and connects VU’s two Footscray campuses. VU lecturer Michelle Fincke said the idea stemmed from her observation that many students arrived in Footscray to study each day and left without necessarily engaging with the wider area. “Footscray is clearly in a state of flux. I thought, let’s get to know our neighbours,” she said. “Each story has a little treasure or gem.” Ms Fincke said the project was a way for her students to experience the complexities of journalism while learning more about the people who keep Footscray humming along. Her writing class was quick to take up the

project and revelled in the chance to interview people. “I tailored the project to fit their ambitions and they have embraced it,” she said. “The hardest job as a journalist is finding stories. It was a good experience for them to get to interview people face to face.” Ms Fincke said that like the rest of Footscray, Nicholson Street had undergone a great deal of change over time. She hopes Nicholson Street Now will give people a greater insight into the wide range of businesses and organisations that have made it their home. “It’s a street that has taken time to find its place. There was outrage when it became a mall, which seems a surprise now.” Visit: www.nicholsonstreetnow.com Benjamin Millar Students Jake Addams and Elizabeth Morris with teacher Michelle Fincke.

Celia Tran isn’t quite sure where she finds the time to fit in so much volunteering. But find it she does and her efforts have not been unnoticed. The Footscray resident has been named joint winner of the Premier’s Volunteer of the Year award. Ms Tran, 24, received the Dame Elisabeth Murdoch Award from the Families and Children Minister Jenny Mikakos at a ceremony at Government House on Sunday. She was recognised for providing leadership across various causes and organisations supporting multicultural youth, refugees, asylum seekers and disadvantaged youth in Melbourne’s west. Ms Tran said she was shocked by the award given the “amazing people doing great work”

who were also finalists. She hopes the honour will highlight the work of the organisations she assists, including Western Chances and the Asylum Seeker Resource Centre. “I started volunteering in high school and really enjoyed it,” she said. “Growing up in the west I know how many challenges there can be.” Ms Tran said that as the daughter of Vietnamese refugees, she understands the difficulties of growing up in a disadvantaged family. She now hopes her volunteering will, in turn, influence other young people to become involved. “I hope it encourages them to step up. It’s great for your wellbeing, as well as your resumé.” Benjamin Millar

Excess rail land for flats, not park By Benjamin Millar A $60 million apartment building will be built on a slice of Footscray land that residents had hoped would be used as a new park. Residential developers Keystone Property Group snapped up the 2736 square metre site at 94-104 Buckley Street from the state government, announcing plans to use the land to build more than 100 apartments. The site, sold through Savills for just under $5 million, was acquired by the state government during construction of the Regional Rail Link. About 80 homes and businesses along and

near Buckley Street were bulldozed to make way for the project. The government last year told Maribyrnong council it would need to pay close to $5.5 million to secure the site for public open space. Keystone is in the process of building The Buckley development next door, and hopes to get its new project under way within 12 months. Director Ray Evans said the developer will work closely with the council on an “iconic” design that will include two-bedroom apartments priced under $500,000. “We sold the previous two projects at 90-92 Buckley Street and 27 Victoria Street before

‘‘

Footscray is … emerging as a key investment - Julian Heatherich destination

’’

completion, and I’ve no doubt we will do that again,” Mr Evans said. Savills agent Julian Heatherich said the property had attracted strong interest from developers. “Footscray is rapidly emerging as the key investment destination of the west, and that is down to its prime location on the banks of

the Maribyrnong River, just five kilometres from Melbourne’s CBD, and its affordability,’’ he said. Resident Daniell Flood, who had been leading the push for the land to become a park, said the sale to a property developer marks a missed opportunity. “This land would have made a great secret garden,” he said. “Buckley Street will now become a tunnel of towers filled with port trucks.” The state government has also sold a nearby 646 square metre site at 112 Buckley Street to an investor for $1.425 million.

Headlights for the sleigh Williamstown’s annual Christmas night market is back again. Hosted by the Williamstown Chamber of Commerce, the market will be held in Douglas Parade and Ferguson Street on December 9 from 6-9pm. Organiser Richard Mills says that along with local stores offering Christmas products and activities, there will be appearances from Santa and his elves on a vintage fire truck, roving choristers, carousel rides and facepainters. Santorini Greek restaurant will have a lamb spit, while the Hellenic Hotel will offer a special selection of desserts. “The event is a great way to enjoy the village atmosphere in Williamstown, shop local and find some different and unique products you won’t find in the big shopping centres,” Mr Mills said.

“There’ll be a range of kids’ activities and giveaways as well as offerings for parents and people of all ages.” “This is a unique opportunity to bring the community together, wander around the streets, enjoy a bit of entertainment and activity – a night to get into the spirit of Christmas.” For updates, visit the Williamstown Christmas Night Market facebook page.

Rooftop play a ‘real risk’: VCAT

From servo to childcare By Benjamin Millar A 170-place childcare centre will be built on the site of a Yarraville petrol station, despite concerns about traffic and site contamination. The state’s planning tribunal has overturned Maribyrnong council’s rejection of the private centre, planned for the site of the National Lube petrol station at the corner of Williamstown Road and Francis Street. Council refused initial plans for a 206-place centre in May on grounds including building form, parking, interface with residential properties, excessive signage and site contamination. The applicant, Southern Capital Corporation, appealed to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT), lodging

amended plans for a two-storey child care centre with roof terrace playground for 170 children. The council argued the site was inappropriate for a childcare centre, and that traffic would unacceptably impact Dean Street. It also said the applicant had failed to adequately address the possibility the site is contaminated. VCAT member Michael Nelthorpe rejected all of council’s arguments, saying the traffic impact could be overcome if parking on Dean Street was prohibited during peak hours. Mr Nelthorpe found the built form to be acceptable and that noise from traffic and the centre could be managed. He also found the council had erred in categorising a childcare centre as a commercial activity requiring a more central site.

“I am not persuaded that the council has properly applied its planning policies to this proposal.” The council argued that soil investigation works should have occurred as part of the permit application process, given the site’s history as a petrol station. However, Mr Nelthorpe agreed with the applicant that the matter can be addressed by conditions on the permit. “The critical matter is to ensure the site can be used for a childcare centre before the use commences, rather than before the permit issues.” The decision comes as construction begins on a new 100-place private childcare centre on the corner of Barkly and Gordon streets in Footscray.

The state’s planning tribunal has expressed surprise at the lack of Victorian guidelines as it refused a permit to build a childcare centre near a Newport fuel terminal. The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) upheld Hobsons Bay council’s rejection of a two-storey, 112-place centre at 463-465 Melbourne Road. Wilcon Projects’ application had included a rooftop playspace. VCAT member Phillip Martin said the site was about 290 metres from a Viva Energy Australia fuel terminal, classified as a major hazard facility (MHF). “The Viva fuel terminal … is a major supplier of Melbourne’s day-to-day fuel consumption, including aviation fuel for the airport.” Mr Martin said “curiously” there were no formal planning controls in Victoria when it came to developing land for sensitive uses near a MHF. However, he said WorkSafe advised against certain developments within 300 metres of one. In refusing the application, Mr Martin said he had to consider the risk of a vapour cloud explosion (VCE), triggered by a fuel vapour leak that gradually builds up and ignites. He said there was “a real risk of … metal and glass, falling in a more vertical manner on children playing in the ground level open play area or the rooftop”. Victoria has 45 major hazard sites, eight of them in Hobsons Bay.


REKO RENNIE

Prized idea for arts west A proudly Footscray born-and-bred artist is relishing the chance to help judge the inaugural Footscray Art Prize. The $17,500 prize, launched on Friday night, offers Australian artists a chance to showcase their work and vie for rewards including $10,000 in cash for the overall winner. Reko Rennie, a Footscray-born artist who explores his Aboriginal identity through contemporary media, said he was excited to have been invited to sit on the four-person judging panel. “I thought it would be a wonderful opportunity given I grew up in Footscray,” he said. Rennie said growing up in the west, and being exposed to politically charged graffiti on

the streets of Footscray, had strongly shaped his own creative work. As well as the $10,000 prize, the Footscray Art Prize will include a street art prize ($5000), tertiary art prize ($1500) and two young artist prizes ($500 each) open to young people in Melbourne’s west. The Footscray Art Prize will be awarded every second year, in a collaboration between Victoria University, Maribyrnong council, Footscray Community Arts Centre and the Rotary Club of Footscray. Entries close on March 3, 2017, and winners will be announced in May, 2017. Further details: www.vu.edu.au Benjamin Millar

SMS alerts for water warnings By Goya Dmytryshchak Beachgoers can sign up for SMS alerts notifying them of unsafe water quality, as last summer’s data shows people were cautioned against swimming for a third of the season. Altona, Williamstown and Werribee South recorded 20 or 21 days when the water quality was ranked ‘fair’, meaning it may not be suitable for swimming.

The beaches had seven or eight days when the water was rated ‘poor’; that is, it was definitely not suitable for swimming. For water quality, Werribee South was ranked 28th out of Melbourne’s 36 bay beaches, while Altona came in at 19th and Williamstown 14th. The Environment Protection Authority’s applied sciences group manager, Anthony Boxshall, said water quality at the three western suburbs beaches was affected by stormwater

drains. “Williamstown, Altona and Werribee South beaches generally have suitable water quality for swimming during fine weather,” Dr Boxshall said. “All three can have poor bacterial water quality during and after rain due to stormwater pollution from nearby stormwater drains and waterways. Werribee South beach is the most susceptible to stormwater pollution out of the three due to its location near the mouth of the

Werribee River. During rain events, pollutants in runoff wash down stormwater channels and out into the bay, making nearby beaches unsafe for swimming from increased risk of illness.” Dr Boxshall said people should avoid swimming near stormwater or river outlets for 24 to 48 hours after heavy rain due to higher risk of illness such as gastroenteritis from high bacteria levels. Details: yarraandbay.vic.gov.au

The joy is in the details When it comes to Christmas, Altona couple Jillian and Joe Inguanez pay attention to detail. Their Christmas display at 2 Greeney Street this year includes an illuminated window containing thousands of thumbnail-sized figurines and fairground rides, with a choo-choo train passing through. Ms Inguanez said they had done different displays for the past 20 years. Any donations from visitors to this year’s display will go towards fighting breast cancer. “We started off with just a few small things, but then it just got bigger and bigger,” she said. “I think as it’s got bigger, we’ve got more enjoyment out of it. “I think it’s the joy of people coming and noticing that things are all different … this is new, that’s new. “We’ve had children come year after year. They come for the train. “We see them down the street and they say to my husband, ‘Oh, you’re the train man’, because they remember us from the actual

train that goes around.” Past displays have included a zoo and a shopping centre with houses below. “Every year we do something different, so this year we’ve decided to do rides,” Ms Inguanez said. “We’re doing it to raise money for Cancer Council this year. “I like to make the charities different each year, as well. “People persist in giving us money. At first we decided, no you can’t give us money, but then we thought, if they give us money we’ll put it towards a charity. “Christmas is all about giving, isn’t it?” The Christmas display at 2 Greeney Street includes a remembrance window for those who have lost loved ones to breast cancer.

Progress turns on history By Goya Dmytryshchak A piece of Williamstown history is about to be covered up. Two murals depicting the CCS Shenandoah, a US confederate army merchant raider ship, have made Shenandoah House, on the corner of Ann and Aitken streets, a popular tourist attraction. Homeowner Leigh Goodall said the mural at the rear of the historic house will soon be obscured by the high-rise Port Phillip woollen mill redevelopment next door. Mr Goodall, who started a Shenandoah society that led to the forming of Williamstown Maritime Association, said he has been “on a mission” to educate people about the ship’s connection to Melbourne, and the controversy its arrival in Hobson’s Bay created. “I researched the Shenandoah when I was in America about 20 years ago,” he said. “I started a Shenandoah society, which evolved into the Williamstown Maritime Association, which evolved into Seaworks. “No one knew about the Shenandoah then, and I think they sort of do now.” The Shenandoah docked at Williamstown on January 25, 1865, with a Confederate crew hellbent on sinking Yankee whaling ships because they were at war with the northern states. It was allowed into Williamstown to make repairs to its propeller bearings, which had been damaged in a storm. While the US consul in Melbourne fumed at the presence of a ship known for burning its whaling fleets, Melburnians were in awe. Thousands lined the docks of Williamstown and special trains brought them dockside to catch a glimpse of the ship and, when it departed, 42 local men stowed away.

After 25 years in Footscray Park, the colourful Albanian Community Festival will be staged at Yarraville Gardens on Sunday. Albanian Australian Community Association secretary Adzi Ceni said the annual cultural celebration marks the republic’s independence day, the most important day for Albanians worldwide. “People come from all over the countryside to enjoy traditional food and music, making this the largest gathering of the Albanian community in Australia,” he said. “It is also important for us to engage with the wider community … and present a little of our culture to those that would not normally come across [it].” The Albanian Community Festival is in Yarraville Gardens, 11am-6pm.

Braybrook trafficker jailed

WILL RICHARDSON

Leap for ‘green’ business By Benjamin Millar Small businesses with big ideas for sustainability and wellbeing are being backed by a new $13 million fund launched in Footscray. Impact Investment Group’s Giant Leap fund focuses on investment opportunities for companies with a strong social or environmental mission. Small business and innovation minister Phillip Dalidakis joined IIG chief investment officer Will Richardson last week to launch the fund at the IIG-owned Dream Factory.

The first investment formed part of the $5 million raised for Sendle, a carbon offset parcel delivery and postal service. The second investment is YourGrocer, offering same-day delivery from local small businesses, including butchers, green grocers, bakers and delicatessens. Mr Richardson said the tide is turning on business that comes at the expense of people or the planet. “We believe that the most successful businesses are the ones that make money by doing good, and they are the ones we are going after,” he said.

“Research from Harvard Business School, Deutsche Bank and ACNeilsen show that companies with sustainable practices outperform competitors without those practices, and that people will pay for goods and services from companies that make a difference.” Mr Dalidakis said the investment will help boost the local economy and jobs in Melbourne’s inner-west. “Not only will this money help our start-up ecosystem, but it will help those that are dedicated to making our world better for everyone.”

A Braybrook man has been sentenced to 23 months in jail after being caught with almost 80 kilograms of cannabis. Appearing in the County Court last month, Van Vuong Phan, 27, entered a guilty plea to trafficking a commercial quantity of cannabis and possessing a prohibited weapon. The court heard police executing a warrant at Phan’s Braybrook home on March 3 detected a strong cannabis smell. Police seized seven large plastic bags containing small vacuum-sealed bags of cannabis, four vacuum-seal machines, five mobile phones, a prohibited knife and a Commodore car. Phan, a Vietnamese national, arrived in Australia on an education visa in 2013. The visa was cancelled a few months later and he remained in Australia unlawfully. The court heard Phan had experienced a dysfunctional upbringing, with limited education and issues with substance abuse from a very young age. Judge Claire Quin said a gambling problem had led Phan to amass a $200,000 debt. “Though gambling is not a matter in mitigation, it does provide background or explanation for … this criminal behaviour,” she said. Judge Quin said Phan had expressed remorse and had a strong chance of rehabilitation, but trafficking of drugs in a commercial quantity was very serious. Phan was sentenced to 23 months’ jail, minus 253 days already served. Benjamin Millar

MY PLACE Rosa McKenna loves Spotswood, or ‘Spotty’ as it is affectionately called by locals. She speaks with Goya Dmytryshchak.

My great grandmother settled in Yarraville next door to her sister’s family in the early 20th century, where they raised a large Irish brood that has now dispersed all over Australia. It is said that my grandmother bought a plot of land in Spotswood. In the ’90s, I worked across the western suburbs establishing adult education programs, so I travelled through Spotswood frequently, and was always interested in returning. I bought here in 2007, conscious of this history. What do you like about Spotswood? I love Spotswood because it is so compact and unassuming. It has everything you need within walking distance, or you can easily hop on the train or bus to go anywhere else. When I first moved, people were initially reserved, but as I have become involved in reviving Spotswood Kingsville RSL and helping establish the Spotswood South Kingsville Residents Group (SSKRG), I have made many friends and got to know many more. I have grown to love Donald McLean Reserve – my wilful dog, Lucy, knows every cranny and hole. What would you change? Spotswood is already changing. Its modest working class and industrial landscape is gradually being gentrified, and that is not a bad thing. Renewal is needed. The cottages are being replaced by high and medium density developments alongside long-standing homes. This brings a nice mix of old and young,

long-time Spotty folk and newcomers into the area. One thing likely to bring a lot of change to Spotty and other areas along the freeway corridor is the Western distributor. This will bring at least 500 placarded trucks into the suburb, transforming Simcock Avenue as an entrance to Spotswood, and building a ramp alongside Donald McLean Reserve. It will bring more noise and ultra-fine exhaust closer to this precious piece of open space, and to Emma McLean Kindergarten. What’s your favourite cafe and/or eatery? I mostly like eating at home and from my own garden, but it is hard to resist the lure of the growing range of eateries on Hudsons Road and Vernon Street. I have a regular beef pho at Chase and meet friends for coffee and cakes at any of the other local cafe – Mies, Doyle & Sons, Candied and the Duchess. My family are regulars at the Spottiswoode Hotel, but my heart is in the intimate little bar at the Spotswood Kingsville RSL. What are you passionate about and why? I keep my eye on remote communities in the Northern Territory, where I worked off and on for 10 years. I remain in touch with ‘family’ in East Arnhemland and the Thamarrurr region west of Darwin. I tease them with the success of my Bulldogs over their AFL passions, and watch as young ones make names for themselves in footy, art and music – all made possible through their continuing bilingual and bicultural education systems that allow them to live and work in both cultures.

As might be expected from a place with a fourth-level rooftop terrace taking in West Gate Bridge, marina and ocean views, the architect-designed fit-out over three floors is chockful of sophistication and clever use of generous space. Gorgeous picture windows, expanses of plank flooring, white-on-white palette, bespoke fittings and stylish timber accents characterise the house; and outdoor integration is excellent. The three bedrooms all have chic en suites, one at lower-ground level has a fitted study. The main bedroom looks out on vertical greenery, and there’s french doors to a private deck. Storage is exemplary. In the second-floor living hub – which has a large terrace – the kitchen has stone benches, a butler’s pantry and all mod-cons. Refrigerated cooling, central heating, a garage plus an off-street space are other drawcards. The property is securely leased until January 2018.

Behind the postcard California bungalow façade lies a brilliant makeover oozing sophistication and confident design statements, with luxe liveability to the fore. Within a leisurely stroll of Yarraville Village, the house has three charming carpeted, robed bedrooms, the main with original fireplace, and a designer en suite with fab tiling, walk-in shower and two vanity basins with exposed chrome plumbing. The main bathroom is similarly chic. Under a gently raked plaster ceiling, the living hub has Tassy oak floorboards and bespoke joinery in white to match the wall paint. The all-white kitchen has stone benches, all mod-cons, and a bifold servery window to the west-facing rear deck and garden. A concealed study nook is also in the hub, and there’s a separate laundry and attic storage. From a right-of-way, the double garage has internal access through a mud room.

Within steps of the foreshore and a three-minute bike ride of Cherry Lake, this newly crafted stunner will attract buyers looking for high-end specifications in a fab lifestyle locale. The soft-grey and white palette is anchored with beautiful Australian chestnut floorboards in the light-filled living domain.

Two downstairs bedrooms share a sleek bathroom, and there’s a study nook.

Price: $1.2 million – $1.3 million Auction: December 10 at 12.30pm

In a pocket of Williamstown that presents a compelling lifestyle and views across Jawbone Reserve and the bay, this contemporary townhouse has sophistication to match its setting. The house appears to have addressed every demand of practical living, with a clever and stylish design. For lovers of voguish-style, the interiors will hold particular allure and entertainers will love the indoor/outdoor living zones. Fixtures and finishes marry practicality and refinement, with bespoke touches lifting the bar to memorable heights.

Let’s start with the wide, tiled hallway. To the left of entry is an ingeniously designed carpeted theatre room (or potential third bedroom). Sound-proofed and fitted with BOSE sound system, this room offers the ultimate, at-home cinematic experience. One of the two bedrooms is next door to this. Large and chic, it has a built-in wardrobe and split-system and has access to the main bathroom. The kitchen, with stone benchtops and glass splashback, presides over the dining hub. There’s the full gamut of quality appliances: Miele induction cooktop,

under- bench oven, dishwasher and integrated fridge and freezer. The chef also gets unimpeded views across to the outdoor dining area, which is easily accessed by glass sliders. A timber staircase leads up to the main bedroom and first floor living zone. This bedroom has a gorgeous en suite with spa and twin vanity basins. The second, sun-lit living zone accentuates the townhouse’s entertainment value. Equipped with a kitchenette with integrated Miele coffee machine, the

space has access to a balcony, which offers spectacular bay views. The paved backyard has a built-in gas barbecue within the confines of its timber-lined fence. There’s an outdoor drip-watering system, and a double garage could be another entertainment space. Indoor features include double-glazed windows, two Velux skylights, two Zip taps, security monitors, and Gainsville blinds. Eleanor Tabone

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

CONSIDER THE SAUCE We all know Kenny Weir’s penchant for burgers … well … Running ahead of time, I decide to take the scenic route to Altona’s Harrington Square, but as I pass Bezirk cafe on Millers Road, I feel a twinge of guilt. I’d exchanged emails a while back with one of Bezirk’s proprietors with a view to doing a CTS review – but we simply haven’t got around to it yet. Now here I am, heading to another Altona cafe to do the biz on the eve of its big opening! Oh well … happily, after I enter Birdcage Cafe Altona, I discover the couple behind it, Adrian and Cath Davey, are the very same folks who run Bezirk – problem solved … or rather, no problem at all! Adrian tells me their initial focus in opening a sister joint for Bezirk ran more along the lines of a hole-in-the-wall operation. But when they found and secured 7 Harrington Square, they decided there was no other way for it than to run with gusto, with the greater space at hand. And a lovely space it is, too. It’s kinda minimalist, but in a warming way. Naturally, Birdcage Cafe is doing a fine line in brekkies, including breakfast pumpkin gnocchi and apple crumble pancakes. But with more room, and more room to cook, Birdcage Cafe is going further than Bezirk in terms of lunch offerings, running to – for instance – a Thai beef salad and a grilled salmon. I’m told the menu testing has all been done, and I’m on hand for a sort-of softish opening

BIRDCAGE CAFE ALTONA Address: 7 Harrington Square, Altona Phone: 0414 224 821 for friends and family. So my lunch options are limited to the burgers … no matter. Now, take it on board that my lunch has been prepared in the knowledge it is to be eaten by a food writer and that I did not pay for it. That said … IMO (in my opinion) this fried chicken burger ($17) is a sensation! There’s nothing particularly sophisticated about it, but … A massive slab of crisp, juicy and tasty fried chook; cheese; rough-cut, excellent coleslaw; a single rasher of very good bacon. Excellent chips on the side. Really top stuff, it all is. And so substantial that I have no room left for a chunk of Nutella baklava. Adrian tells me they’re creating some of their sweet treats in-house, but are sourcing others from local specialists, such as Fresh Prince of Baklava. Also keeping the righteous local vibe going are meat from Paddock to Table in Laverton and hams and the like from Sycamore Deli in Altona. My cafe latte is marvellous.

SPORT Drama aplenty in Altona races The Footscray Cycling Club’s Legends Criteriums were held on Sunday on the fast and furious Drake Boulevard circuit in Altona. The annual event, held in honour of the late Harry Jones and Hugh Cram, as well as club living legend Frank Zanatta, is hotly contested due to the immense respect club members have for the three club legends and their dedication to cycling in general and the Footscray Cycling Club. Adding drama to the racing, riders contested two races in one – a single point was awarded to the first rider to finish each lap, the rider with the most points at the end of the races taking the points race prize, while the coveted memorial sash went to the overall winner. The A-grade race was dominated by incessant breakaways that broke up the bunch,

with club criterium and road champion Dom Dudkiewicz taking both the points race and the criterium wins. But it wasn’t easy, the 32-year-old Melton

resident being challenged by Matthias Kiernan and Nick Leonard at every point. “You don’t often get the pleasure of winning a memorial in the presence of one of the living legends in Frankie Zanatta, so it was a real pleasure,” Dudkiewicz said. The B-grade race was dominated by a masterful one-man breakaway from Joe Bury, who crushed the point score race, only to be denied the race win by a small margin by 32-year-old Sunbury resident Daniel Standen. In C grade, veteran FCC racer Bob Shannon rode a measured, strategic race to take the sprint win, with Phil Tehan taking the points race. In D grade, Doug Page secured a win in the points race, with veteran time trial expert Tommy Gray nailing the race victory with a masterful solo break.

IN THE DOGHOUSE Last week I wrote about how the Bulldogs’ premiership affected past players like Doug Hawkins, but this week I saw a video that really brought home to me how much the win meant to so many people involved at the club. Former player and coach Ian ‘Bluey’ Hampshire lives in a nursing home and is battling several health issues, but when a few old teammates brought him the cup recently, it was very touching to see his reaction and just how much it meant to him. Bluey was a great servant of the red, white and blue … he played 111 games, kicked 73 goals and was runner-up in the 1979 best and fairest to Ian Dunstan. When the club sacked Royce Hart in 1982, Bluey stepped in as senior coach for a season and a half. The players of the day loved him … and still do.

■ Sad

to hear of the passing of Nino Arrigo last week after a courageous battle over the past few years. Nino was a well-known Werribee identity through his family business Werribee Glass, and his service to the west through the Werribee Rotary Club was widely acknowledged. Nino was a very determined man, best illustrated by a bike ride from Perth to Melbourne for charity in 1992, raising more than $150,000 for cancer research. He was a very good footballer as well, playing for Werribee in the VFL from 1970 to 1978. He will best be remembered as a generous, decent, caring man who always had a smile. My condolences to Elaine, his family and many friends.

well known western suburbs sportsmen have gone into the fitness business together with the latest franchise of F45 opening in Hoppers Crossing. Dion Golotta, Michael Czepil, Mark Rizza and Chris Black are behind the new venture, which has centres opening up across Melbourne. One of the men behind the original concept is Mark Armstrong former head of fitness for Werribee Football Club. Several AFL players are involved in other suburban branches.

Matthew Love has found his groove for Yarraville this season. (Damjan Janevski)

Eagle confidence soars Much to the delight of his teammates at Yarraville, star batsman Matthew Love has regained his spark in sub-district cricket after a campaign last summer he describes as a “glitch in the system”. Love has pummelled the bowlers this season, scoring 410 runs in all forms at an average of 68, including centuries against Bayswater and Taylors Lakes. In total contrast to his 2014-15 season, when he managed just 211 runs at 16, Love has already posted 324 runs at 54 just five games into the new season. After self doubts crept in last season, Love believes he is winning the battle above the shoulders. “Confidence in sport is a huge thing,” he said. “Once you get in and settled down in an innings and manage to get a big score, you just feel confidence from that. “Thinking back on some of the dismissals last season, I wasn’t able to keep out some of the good balls, then you get yourself into a bit of a rut and question your own ability.

“If your confidence is down, it can be detrimental to your game, and vice versa, if your confidence is up, a lot of luck and things go your way.” Yarraville is in the midst of a crucial east-west division two-day encounter with Box Hill at the Box Hill City Oval. The Eagles have just one win from five games and need to pick up the pace if they are to make a finals push. Box Hill is in a similar predicament. Yarraville posted a defendable 200 off 79 overs. In-form No.3 batsman Matthew Harrison provided the backbone of the innings with 44. While the Eagles don’t have the premiership points they wanted at this stage of the season, they are far from dispirited. Had a bit of luck gone their way, the Eagles may have been perched in the top six, not on the outside looking in. “Like [captain] Nathan Allen has said, we’ve been thereabouts and playing good cricket and we’re trending upwards,” Love said. “If we had’ve got over the line on one or two of those occasions, which we probably

should’ve in the positions that we got to, we could be sitting with at least three wins. “But that’s the way it goes. We’ve got to keep our focus fairly narrow now. “We’ll keep doing the basics really well and results will come, both individually and on the scoreboard.” Box Hill will begin its run chase at 1pm on Saturday. Elsewhere, Williamstown has breezed to first-innings points on the road against Endeavour Hills and will now set its sights on an outright. The Seagulls cruised past the home side’s total of 128 to go to stumps on 1-175 and with a lead of 47. Seagulls captain Dale McDonald (75no) and playing assistant coach Brent McMinn (94no) have put on an unbeaten 175-run partnership. Altona took the honours on day one against Bayswater after a remarkable eight-wicket haul to Shannon Clarke. Clarke finished with 8-60 off 21 as Bayswater was all out for 194. The A’s are 1-32 in reply, with Greg Sheehan (15no) and Aaron Maynard (7no) at the crease.

final days of the November transfer window were not a frenzy, and players and clubs will now wait till the New Year to make any big moves. It was noticeable that Sanctuary Lakes has been hit with seven players asking to cross to Wyndham Suns and three of those were WRFL team of the year players in 2016. That kind of exodus is not good for any club. Kevin Hillier

Bulldogs eager to amend for T20 losses mark when Prahran passed the target with five balls to spare, despite three wickets to Bulldog spinner Jeremy Hart. In the second game on Sunday, it was a near identical tale, with Footscray Edgewater going down by four wickets to Casey-South Melbourne at the Merv Hughes Oval with an over to spare. The Bulldogs made 8-121, with Matthew Gudde top-scoring with 38 off just 26 balls and Buszard reaching 25 not out at the close of the innings. The Dogs seemed to have a stranglehold over the contest when Casey-South Melbourne struggled to 5-54, but some lusty hitting from Dylan Hadfield, who made 48 off 23 balls, delivered them to another loss.

(Damjan Janevski)

Footscray Edgewater has endured a tormenting second week of Premier Cricket’s shortest format with two narrow losses. The Bulldogs could only snare one win out of four Twenty20 games in the past two weekends and finished with a three-game losing streak. The good news for the Dogs is that the results have not cost them a spot in the top eight. Stellar early season form in the longer formats kept them in seventh place following the T20 section of the draw. The Bulldogs will be looking forward to getting back into a two-day game when they face Ringwood on the road in the final match before the Christmas break. In game one on Saturday, Footscray Edgewater went down by four wickets in the last over to Prahran at Toorak Park. The Bulldogs posted a competitive 7-126, Hayden Butterworth leading the way with 64 and Matthew Underwood (25) and Tim Buszard (23) providing some valuable late runs. It was a total that proved just short of the

Blazing a badminton trail By Lance Jenkinson Western Suburbs Badminton Association coach Ann-Louise Slee has shown her squad how it’s done on the court by combining with her ex-national doubles partner Talia Saunders to win a state title. Slee and Saunders were the top-seeded pair in the women’s doubles at the Yonex Victorian open championships and they lived up to the billing with a stunning come-from-behind 18-21 21-18 21-16 victory over New South Wales second seeds Sylvinna Kurniawan and Jennifer Tam in a gruelling three-set final at Albert Park. Slee also reached the semi-finals in the open mixed doubles with partner Ashwant Gobinathan. Slee and Gobinathan were the top seeds in that section at the Open, but were shocked 16-21 21-7 19-21 by third seeds Joel Findlay and Nhi Phung. Eight WSBA-aligned players featured at the Open. Eric Vuong and Matthew Chau, No.4 seeds in the open men’s doubles, were taken out by the top seeds and eventual winners Ross Smith and Robin Middleton in the semi-finals. David Cutroni partnered with Andrew He to lose a marathon three-set quarter-final of the open men’s doubles. Cutroni, partnered with Catherine Mashalidis in open mixed doubles, also lost in the quarters. Shaun Matthews, Rudy Rigg, Ella Bradwell and Lily Rigg produced some creditable performances in their open events. Altona Badminton Centre stadium manager Ron Gray says badminton is booming in the west. The WSBA numbers are slightly down due to the number of badminton centres that have opened up in the past decade since the sport’s exposure at the 2006 Commonwealth Games. “Because it’s so popular, five other venues have opened up in the area,” Gray, a Badminton Victoria life member, said. “Our numbers are slightly down, but the sport is going strong in the western suburbs. It’s great for badminton in the area because there’s so much more opportunity for people to come and play now.” Badminton has been played at Paisley Park’s Altona Badminton Stadium since 1985. Some of the west’s top young players call the club home. “A big focus for the centre is our junior development program,” Gray said. “We have about 75 juniors in our squad, training for a minimum of two hours a week and some training up to eight hours a week while playing pennant competition. “The players regularly enter into open

and underage tournaments along with team competitions.” Next year will be huge for the Altona Badminton Centre as it’s hosting an under-13 interstate series between Victoria and New South Wales, a regional team’s challenge from

those states, as well as the under-13 Australian championships and under-19 Australian junior international championships. The WSBA will be holding a ‘come and try’ day at the Altona Badminton Centre on December 18 from noon to 3pm.

Leo Malik has signed on as coach of Westvale Olympic with one eye on now and one on the future of the Football Federation Victoria club. Malik wants to break the mould of selfish coach and set Olympic up for a period of sustained success with his whole-of-club approach. “I’m one of those coaches who likes the whole club to work together under the same philosophy,” he said. “There’s no point the senior coach going one way, then the reserve coach going the other, and then the under 18s going another way. “What I’m trying to do is to get everyone to work with the same philosophy and the same type of football style. “Obviously, each coach can adapt their team to what they want as well, but if you can focus on getting all the juniors playing a similar way, then, when it’s their chance to play at senior level, it’s going to be much easier for them.” Malik hit out at the one-and-done style of local coaches in the modern era. The 39-year-old reckons too many are focused on personal success for their coaching CV, and not what is in the best interests of the club. He wants to be at Westvale for at least three to four years to properly implement what he set out in his interviews with the club. “Nearly every coach that comes into a club now, they bring their own players, get paid whatever money, they win the league and then, the following year, that coach leaves and all the players leave, and the club is back to zero again,” Malik said. “We want the club to grow [from within] and build the junior base. We want to give those kids who have invested so much time and money in the club an opportunity to play at senior level.” Malik does understand the need for positive results in the seniors and reserves from the get-go, though. He will have to find a balanced approach between blooding youth and playing seniors. Senior results will count towards Malik’s longevity at the club, but the work in the junior section will only come to fruition over time. “We know what we want and what we need, and it’s going to take time,” Malik said. “We need support from the committee as well, we need support from the members, we need support from the community.” Westvale finished second in the FFV men’s state league 3 last season. The good news is the vast majority of players will return to chase that promotion in 2017. Promotion is something that Malik is familiar with, having taken South Kingsville-based Melbourne City to two promotions in four seasons. Former Melbourne Knights’ star Andy Vargas will be Westvale’s assistant coach, while Juan Toro (fitness) and Daniel Campos (goalkeeping coach) have also joined. Lance Jenkinson

Wolves stalk the pack, keen to take out western rivals Williamstown is standing at the crossroads in the Baseball Victoria summer league division 2. The Wolves have four hugely important games in the lead-up to the Christmas break, which will help shape their destiny this season. With a 6-6 record, the Wolves are yet to stamp themselves as a genuine premiership threat, but they want to be more than just a middle side. Wolves’ player-coach Jarryd Rogers has honed in on his side’s next two games, in particular, against western rivals Sunshine tonight at Barclay Reserve and Werribee at President’s Park on Saturday, as being “incredibly important”. “We’re pretty excited to be playing against these top teams like Sunshine and Werribee,” Rogers said. “It’s going to give us a good chance to see where we’re at. “We’re pretty confident we can get wins against these teams, and it will put us in a better spot on the ladder.” Williamstown will need to move on from Sunday’s 10-7 loss to Upwey-Ferntree Gully at Greenwich Reserve in a hurry. The game played out similarly to others this season, with the Wolves’ batters getting hot, only to be let down in pitching and defence.

Starting pitcher Daniel Chircop had the Wolves in a strong position, but the bullpen let the side down. The fielding performance was also a touch off on the day. “Our hitting is doing really well, we’ve been happy with that,” Rogers said. “We found that most of the time this season it’s just come down to whether our defence can last nine innings. “We made a few mistakes on the mound and a few mistakes in the field, and they were very opportunistic. We were disappointed to concede that many.” Despite going winless in three games – they had an 8-8 mid-week draw with Doncaster. The Wolves are sixth on the ladder and doing everything to bridge the gap on the top four. “We’ve beaten some good teams, and lost some other games we probably should’ve won,” Rogers said. In division 1, Newport Rams enjoyed a 3-2 victory over Cheltenham for their fifth win of the season. The Rams, fourth in the west, travel to Waverley, third in the east, on Sunday. In division 3, Footscray crushed bottom of the ladder Ormond Glenhuntly 9-2. The Bulldogs travel to face Chelsea on Sunday in a meeting of two three-win sides.

Spotswood has come back from the brink to mow down Strathmore in Victorian Turf Cricket Association senior division. The Woodsmen were in deep water at 6-54 in their search for the Mores’ big total of 9-241. Just when it looked as though the Woodsmen would sink to defeat, the tail sparked to life with Upal Singankutti-Achchige (78) and Nick Bartol (62) leading the way to victory and Ashley Robertson (35no) and Matthew Short (15no) bringing it home. The Woodsmen remain well placed in second spot on the ladder, hot on the heels of ladder leader Yarraville Club, which won on first innings over Doutta Stars on Saturday.

Yarraville Glory has appointed Tony Merakis as its new senior coach for the 2017 Football Federation Victoria season. Merakis, an A-licensed coach with an extensive coaching background that has included roles with South Melbourne youth, Richmond and North Caulfield, will replace Charlie Egan in the role. The Glory has promoted from within for its reserves coaching position, with Dimitri Efstathiadis taking on the role after working with the club’s development squad last season.

Woodswomen wallop it By Lance Jenkinson Spotswood is counting its wins in the CV Women’s Community Cricket north-west division, smiling like a poker player with a big stack of chips. The Woodswomen’s collection is sky-high after five victories in a row, including a 10-wicket mauling of EMP-Williamstown Congs at Donald McLean Reserve on Sunday. It’s no surprise the Woodswomen are firmly entrenched in the top four with inspirational captain Kim Borg at the helm. Borg is the premier bowler in the competition, a handy batter and a supreme leader of the Woodswomen, which is not a bad starting point if you are putting together a team that wants to contend for a flag. The off spinner has taken 23 wickets this season – a whopping 13 more than any other player in the competition. She has come away with five-wicket hauls on two occasions and is averaging a miserly 3.17 runs per wicket.

But Borg has never been one to delve too deeply into the stats, preferring to play for the love of it. “I enjoy playing with a great bunch of girls,” she said. “I used to play here at Spotswood with the ladies’ team about 20 years ago. “It’s great to be back – it’s a good club.” What makes Borg’s season all the more remarkable is that she is on the comeback trail from a foot injury. The Bacchus Marsh resident had a tear underneath her right foot that disrupted her cricket last summer. A decision to take it easy and rest up the foot seems to have paid dividends. “I decided to take myself out of the game so I can heal and be ready for this season, and that seems to have paid off,” Borg said. “This is probably the best I’ve ever bowled.” What’s more, Borg is taking the competition by storm. The all-rounder will turn 43 this week and she is dominating players half of her age. Borg, a single mother to 11 year old Ryan, has implored more women to take up sport.

Football

She believes the success of the Women’s Big Bash League will encourage more females to take up cricket. “You’re never too old to pick up the bat and ball and have a go,” she said. “Hopefully, with the Big Bash and even the women’s AFL, young girls can aspire to do whatever they want and play a sport, and hopefully, make a career of it.” As for how long Spotswood can keep up its winning streak, that is a subject that Borg prefers to leave alone. “I don’t want to answer that question because I don’t want to jinx it,” she said with a laugh. “It’s one game at a time. “First and foremost, I’ve always played just to have fun – winning is a bonus.” Spotswood will feature in an exciting double header of Twenty20 cricket at Donald McLean Reserve on Sunday. The Woodswomen will face Melbourne University at 11am, followed by a clash with Jacana at 2.30pm.

Caroline Springs will begin life in the Western Region Football League’s top-flight division 1 on April 1 next year by unfurling its second-tier premiership flag at the season opener against Albion at the Town Centre Oval. Defending first division champion Deer Park will also have a flag to reveal – one of the rare four-peat variety. It will do so on the same date when it hosts Altona in the 2017 opener. Sunshine has a difficult home game first-up against Spotswood, while St Albans’ round one fixture away to Hoppers Crossing will be played as a stand-alone game on Good Friday. There will be a Wyndham derby in round one with Wyndhamvale facing Werribee Districts.
