Chemical fears linger
(Marco De Luca)
Concerns have been raised about chemical storage near residential areas in the wake of the West Footscray factory fire which sent toxic smoke over Melbourne’s west on Thursday. Emergency services were called to reports of a fire at a warehouse near the corner of Somerville and Paramount roads just after 5am on Thursday to find it fully alight. An MFB spokeswoman said the fire was about 14,000 square metres and was being fuelled by a range of materials, such as acetone drums, canisters and scrap metal. It took more than 17 hours to bring the inferno under control but it was expected to continue to smoulder for days. A WorkSafe spokeswoman said there would be a blitz on site occupiers in the inner west this week. “Last financial year, WorkSafe issued 1175 notices ordering duty holders to improve their storage and handling of chemicals, or potentially face prosecution,” she said. On Friday, a watch and act message remained in place for Altona East, Altona North, Brooklyn, Kingsville, Newport, South Kingsville, Spotswood, Sunshine, Tottenham, West Footscray and Yarraville. The Environment Protection Authority and Melbourne Water on Friday warned people to avoid Stony Creek and Cruickshank Park in Yarraville due to toxic water run-off.

Rates hike uproar Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay ratepayers are coming forward in droves to say their properties have been wildly over-valued after receiving their council rates notices last week. A 96-year-old Footscray man has been told his home’s value has more than doubled in two years, pushing up his rates bill by $1938 to $3832. Jonathan Manallack said his elderly father was devastated. While the average general rate increase is capped at 2.25 per cent across all properties, individual rates vary in a revaluation year.
Revaluations are conducted every two years, with the last one carried out in January. In both council areas, valuations were determined by independent valuers and certified by the valuer-general. From 2019, valuations will be conducted annually with the valuer-general to become the sole valuation authority by 2022. Mr Manallack said Maribyrnong council estimated the value of his father’s Victoria Street house had risen from $695,000 to $1.47 million since 2016. “He’s been here for over 50 years,” he said. “I know house prices are elevated around the area but to go up $735,000 in a two-year period is

pretty steep I reckon. But what had happened, a few years ago council changed all the zoning … because we’re close to a station and public transport, you [can build] a six-storey apartment building.” A Williamstown resident said his Chandler Street property was valued at $668,000 more than two years ago. “The capital improved value [market value] went from $1,390,000 to $2,058,000, so that’s an increase of $668,000 or 48 per cent increase,” said the man, who asked not to be named. “That’s just ridiculous. I’m going to be filling out the objection notice. I’ll probably go to the ombudsman as well.”
Numerous other ratepayers took to resident groups on social media or contacted Star Weekly to complain about their valuations. Maribyrnong corporate services director Celia Haddock said: “Council uses the net annual value system to determine its property rates – which is the fairest system for the ratepayers in our city.” Hobsons Bay chief executive Aaron van Egmond said people must understand that market changes in the past two years would have considerable impact on their rates. “We understand rate shock and this has happened in recent years when ratepayers get their individual rates bills,” he said.

Councils probe outsourcing care By Goya Dmytryshchak Moves to outsource home care for the elderly and younger people with disabilities in Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong are being opposed by the Australian Services Union. Both councils recently endorsed a tender process to sub-contract domestic assistance, personal care and in-home respite. ASU organiser Luke Cherry said members were campaigning to keep council services provided under the Commonwealth Home Support Program for over 65s and the Home
and Community Care Program for Younger People. “ASU members working at Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong city councils know the value their clients place in receiving continuity of care through people they know,” he said. “They don’t want the kind of rotating door of carers they’ll get under a contracted-out arrangement.” A Hobsons Bay council spokesperson said due to changes in state and federal government funding the council had an obligation to ratepayers to test the market.
“It is premature to report on or assume there will be any changes to our service yet as a result of the ongoing market process,” the spokesperson said. “Our staff and clients have been made aware that we are having a good look and we will be working very closely with them right throughout the process, as we have so far.” Maribyrnong’s community services director Clem Gillings said the council was only tendering out in-home support services, being personal care, respite care, and domestic assistance.
“Council will continue to support older citizens through the provision of a range of community-based support and engagement services such as meals on wheels, planned activity groups and community transport services,” she said. “This decision was made as a result of the national aged care and disability reforms that make it difficult for local governments to continue as providers, and there is evidence that other providers may be better positioned to provide a comprehensive and quality service for our residents.”

Freeway exit crashes alarm
HUNG LE
Prime time for comedy material There’s nothing like a leadership spill to give a comedian material. Rod Quantock and Hung Le are performing their Rubber Chicken Soup show in the Newport Comedy Room this month. Le, who arrived in Australia as a refugee in 1975 after the Vietnam War, said the pair were compelled to reflect on recent events in Canberra. “I was just on a cruise ship and then come back, got a new prime minister,” he said.
“Four days I was away. “You can plan your whole life around new prime ministers now. Every time we get a new prime minister, I go and tune my car. “Peter Dutton wanted to be prime minister and all of a sudden there were smiling pictures of him. “He’d never smiled in his life. He’s got the resting angry face and all of a sudden he’s smiling. “He didn’t fool anyone anyway.”
Looking at the new cabinet, Le said it’s a case of if you don’t laugh, you cry. The show will end with an original song titled, I Still call Australia by Phone. Rubber Chicken Soup is on September 14 at 8pm at Newport Bowling Club, 4 Market Street, Newport. Tickets at $30/$35 are available at www. stellavision.com.au Goya Dmytryshchak
VicRoads is reviewing safety at a notorious freeway exit at Altona Meadows where two cars slammed into a wall in the space of a fortnight. The cars crashed while attempting the tight turn on the Newland Street off-ramp from the Princes Freeway. Altona Meadows Community Association president Jodi Martin said she had contacted VicRoads to request improvement to what she considered a black spot. “Newland Street is the main entry way to our suburb and it’s two things – ugly and extremely dangerous for people not aware of the tight turn,” she said. “I hear of an accident or near miss there every week. “Many people in the suburb are concerned it is only a matter of time before a major incident occurs.” She said many crashes at the corner went unreported. VicRoads only records casualty crashes – those in which people are injured. There have been five recorded casualty crashes involving vehicles exiting the off-ramp at Newland Street in the five years to 2013. Three resulted in serious injuries. To be eligible for federal black spot funding, a location is required to have at least three casualty crashes in five years. VicRoads transport and planning director David Teague said options to increase safety at the off-ramp were being reviewed. “Keeping people safe on our roads is our No.1 priority and we’re investigating ways to improve safety at the Newland Street off-ramp,” he said.

Writer and director Davina Wright said the show was for children aged nine and over, but was equally aimed at adults. “What I’m excited about making is not a kid’s show or an adult’s show, rather a show that pushes to see the world through both eyes,” she said. “A world where the things we imagine are less binary and more magical.” The performance is part of the Melbourne Fringe Festival.

Footscray schools build boost By Benjamin Millar A new three-storey building will be built at Gilmore College for Girls and Footscray City College will be upgraded with a new science, technology, engineering and mathematics block, according to a state government pledge. The government last week promised $20.2 million for the next stage of the Footscray Learning Precinct, on top of more than $50 million already allocated to design the new precinct, purchase land and build the new Seddon Junior Secondary Campus.
Education Minister James Merlino visited Gilmore College for Girls in Footscray on Tuesday to announce the cash boost and turn the first sod to officially start construction. The all-girls school will become a co-educational junior campus from 2020 and Footscray City College will become a senior campus for years 10 to 12. The Seddon Junior Secondary Campus is due to open in 2021. One lead principal will be appointed to oversee the entire precinct, with campus principals based at each site. Footscray City Primary School will be
redeveloped to increase capacity and a new early learning centre and a new hall and gymnasium will be built on the site. Footscray MP Marsha Thomson said the entire Footscray Learning Precinct would be “an iconic project” and the first of its kind, drawing together every stage of education from early learning to university. “This will deliver education in a whole new way,” she said. “This is about becoming a centre for educational excellence.” Melissa Horne, president of lobby group
SKY High and Labor’s state candidate for the seat of Williamstown, welcomed the funding promise. “Today’s commitment for an additional $20.2 million, on top of the $50 million already allocated for the Footscray Learning Precinct, means that the high school places that the SKY community has lobbied hard for, over many years, will be up and running in time for children in grade 5 to go to the new precinct in 2020,” she said. “The tireless efforts of the SKY community have not gone unrewarded.”
Sailing into new era A $3 million upgrade to Seaworks at Williamstown was officially unveiled on Friday. The state government-funded renovation of the former Melbourne Harbour Trust workshop – known as the big shed – is the first stage of a bigger plan for the maritime precinct. The site is home to the Seaworks Foundation, two commercial piers, a boatbuilder, commercial ferry operators, Melbourne Seaplanes, a maritime museum and the Sea Shepherd fleet. It is Hobsons Bay’s second-biggest visitor attraction after Scienceworks, drawing more than 100,000 people annually to its festivals and events. The upgrade includes a new facade on Nelson Place, large glass panels at the rear, refurbishing a heritage shed, a new mezzanine-level event space, a lift and new toilets. Ports Minister Luke Donnellan and Williamstown MP Wade Noonan attended Friday’s launch.
“Locals will be amazed at the transformation of this grand old maritime building,” Mr Noonan said. Seaworks has deep-water port and is Melbourne’s key mooring for local and international tall ships. Chief executive Pauline Hobbs said the upgrade was just a start. “It’s the beginning of making the site much more accessible and attractive for users, enabling us to generate revenue to reinvest in the rest of the site,” she said. “We’re looking for funding to upgrade our piers. Our piers are the connection between the CBD and Williamstown in terms of tourism activities like the Melbourne International Tall Ships Festival and other maritime events.” A creative technology hub will also soon be developed at the site.

were briefed by the MFB at two community meetings held at Footscray Town Hall. A Yarraville resident told the meeting that factories in the industrial precinct in the area were a “time bomb waiting to happen”. “This area of Brooklyn and Tottenham is a no man’s land – anything goes,” he said. “These woolstores were built back in the 1950s. They have been sublet and there’s a whole lot of spurious items in there. We don’t know. “Why is no one monitoring the activities of these companies operating in this area? It’s a disgrace. “I’d like the government to audit all these factories that are operating without control.” Former Greens MP and West Footscray resident of 30 years Colleen Hartland called for inspections of industrial warehouses, saying self-regulation did not work. “What appears to have happened last night is there was a tenant moving in and a tenant moving out and they had things in there like shipping containers – they think, to separate the two parts of the warehouse – and there were old oxy acetylene tanks and drums that were being recycled but it probably had been burning for some time before the first fire alarm went at 5am,” she said. “Just because we live in an industrial area doesn’t mean that our safety should be put at risk.” EPA chief environmental scientist Andrea Hinwood said authorities were trying to contain the run-off but people should not walk along the edge of Stony Creek, eat any fish from it or let their dogs swim there. The EPA is also warning people not to eat fish from the lower part of the Maribyrnong River, from the West Gate Bridge.

“EPA officers are continuing to monitor air quality in the western suburbs with mobile equipment deployed to keep residents informed,” Ms Hinwood said on Friday. Friends of Cruickshank Park secretary Sue Vittori said the state of Stony Creek was “outrageous and disappointing”.
“Yesterday there were officials wearing heavy duty gas masks monitoring the creek where it passes through our local park,” she said. “This is not the first time we’ve seen the creek change colour, and we fear it won’t be the last.” MFB acting deputy chief officer Ken Brown said the brigade had worked with the EPA

Safe landing for historic wharf By Goya Dmytryshchak Work is set to begin on an iconic Footscray wharf that has lain in disrepair since collapsing two and a half years ago. Henderson House Landing on the Maribyrnong River has been off limits since the collapse of the crossheads supporting the deck in February 2016. Parks Victoria considered demolishing the landing but the Footscray Riverside Action Group successfully campaigned to save it.
Footscray MP Marsha Thomson and Maribyrnong council on Monday announced the start of works costing $1 million. The state government has contributed $800,000 and Maribyrnong council provided the rest. Ports Minister Luke Donnellan said the wharf was important to boaters, fishers and walkers. “We know how important the Henderson House Landing is to the local community – that’s why we’re investing in this rebuild to

make sure it remains available for people to enjoy,” he said. “This work recognises the historically important role the Maribyrnong River played in our past and will secure the future of Henderson House Landing.”
Parks Victoria commissioned Simpson Constructions to replace all the piles, crossheads, beams and decking. Ms Thomson described the rebuild as a win for the community. “I am delighted that we’ve been able to work alongside the Maribyrnong City Council to save our much loved wharf.” A temporary floating landing will be available for public use during construction. Works are expected to be completed by mid-2019.
Big idea just the ticket Altona North boy Oliver Nguyen has cooked up a generous way to help the Royal Children’s Hospital. Six-year-old Oliver has amassed an entire 30-piece set of Coles Little Shop Mini Collectables, which he is raffling to raise funds for the hospital. Oliver, whose parents own The Baker’s Son in Hoppers Crossing, is selling the raffle tickets for $5 each through the bakery. His mother, Huong Nguyen, said Oliver started out hoping to raise just $100, but the raffle had now raised “hundreds of dollars”. “We’ve just had a really positive response from customers and everyone’s been really happy to support it,” she said. Mrs Nguyen said that the bakery’s customers had also contributed some Coles Mini items to the raffle – enough for Oliver to give away another set as a second prize. She said the Coles supermarket in Hoppers Crossing has donated a folder for the
additional Minis. Oliver said the raffle winners would be drawn on Saturday, September 22, at the Baker’s Son. Oliver has been a patient at the RCH’s emergency ward and his mother also spent a lot of time in the hospital as a child after she was diagnosed with a genetic disorder. “When mum said she had stayed at the hospital, I wanted to give thanks,” he said. Oliver, who is in prep at Sacred Heart Primary School in Newport, said he hoped to become an astronaut or ninja warrior when he grew up. Alesha Capone

Medal winning marriage By Goya Dmytryshchak A Laverton husband and wife have returned from their first Transplant Games of America as a married couple with 19 medals between them – but they say they won gold when they found each other. Terry Holyoak met Californian Anna Modlin at the end of the 2016 games. Ms Modlin, 37, was diagnosed with cystic fibrosis at 18 months and underwent a lung transplant eight years ago. Mr Holyoak, 42, was diagnosed with an eye deformity about age 11 and had two corneal transplants between the ages of 21 and 25. “It was a lot of interest at first sight,” he said of the first time he laid eyes on his future wife. “It was unexpected but it was good. She was my gold medal from two years ago.” Ms Modlin said not a day had passed since that first meeting that the two hadn’t spoken. “I was just doing my competition and I had a whole life and everything completely changed, because I’ve lived 10 miles from my own home where I was born my whole life and then I move here,” she said. She said the games, held every two years, were life-changing for all participants. The couple won medals in swimming, trivia, darts and dancing. They started learning ballroom dancing so they could compete. “Most people learn to dance before they have their wedding and they have their little dance but we kind of did it backwards,” Ms Modlin said. They will now compete at the Australian Transplant Games on Queensland’s Gold Coast from September 30 to October 6. For information on organ donation, visit www.donatelife.gov.au
Church Street work starts Work is finally under way to rebuild the demolished Church Street Children’s Centre in West Footscray. Maribyrnong mayor Cuc Lam and Footscray MP Marsha Thomson visited the site on Friday to witness the official beginning of work on the new $5 million double-storey childcare centre and kindergarten. Star Weekly reported in July that parents had been fuming at the lengthy delays to rebuilding the trouble-plagued centre, originally slated for a $2 million redevelopment that stalled in 2016 when builders discovered “serious structural design issues”. Church Street Children’s Centre was formerly managed by a committee of parents, but is now operated by not-for-profit organisation Early Childhood Management Services. The new centre will increase the capacity of the previous centre and cater for up to 98 children aged up to six. Cr Lam said the redevelopment was in line with the council’s approach of creating flexible spaces that met the needs of local families. “This is an exciting time for local children and families, who will be able to use the new facilities,” she said. “Once complete the new centre will provide a contemporary and innovative educational play spaces.” Work is expected to be finished by August next year.

Things to consider: ■ The Victorian Auditor General raised very serious concerns about the EPA’s ability to monitor our air quality because it has “not kept pace with informa on on air pollu on sources”. It also found “errors in EPA assessments against PM [par culate ma er] standards, all of which overstated air quality”.

Williamstown will host next month’s Oktoberfest in the West, with a special beer locally brewed for the occasion. Seaworks will be transformed into a Munich-style beer hall inspired by the volksfest held annually in Bavaria, Germany. Spotswood’s Two Birds Brewing has created a Kolsch-style beer, Westbier Bitte, for the event. Brownlow medallist Adam Cooney, wife Haylea and Western Bulldogs premiership player Clay Smith will manage the bar and run traditional games. “Haylea and I loved the idea of an Oktoberfest in our backyard,” Cooney said. “It’s a lot of fun and will keep the family entertained.” Event organiser Thomas Clifford said it would be the first in the refurbished waterfront

Real estate the way it should be
Upside Realty, an Australian-owned real estate agency with a low fee and no commissions, is taking on the industry by shining a spotlight on common myths spruiked by other agents. Upside Realty chief executive Adam Rigby is keen to address what he refers to as “self-serving information peddled to property owners”. “Some commission-based real estate agents would have you believe that their approach equates to higher sale prices and more motivated agents, which may be far from the truth,” Mr Rigby says. “Upside Realty is here to set the record straight – selling a home or investment property can be a stressful time, so it’s incredibly important people are armed with the right information.” Mr Rigby identifies what he believes are the top three misconceptions agents may encourage clients to believe. 1. Paying a commission means your agent is pushing for a higher sale price “In fact, it’s quite the opposite,” Mr Rigby asserts. “Every additional day it takes for a property to sell delays the income of a commission-based agent, ultimately decreasing hourly rates. “This can mean an agent will look to close a sale as soon as possible and move on –
regardless of whether it’s the best option for a property owner.” 2. Commissions equate to agent motivation “One of the most common industry misconceptions is that commission-based agents are more dedicated than those who work for a flat price agency,” Mr Rigby says. “Like many sales roles, agents employed by Upside Realty earn a salary with bonuses awarded on performance. This means Upside agents are motivated by these incentives, as well as job satisfaction, career progression, ongoing training opportunities, freeing them up to support clients all the way to the finish line.” 3. Real estate shop fronts are the only mark of reliability “Before the digital age, most buyers saw property listings at local real estate offices and agents had their own network of buyers and sellers,” Mr Rigby says. “Now buyers search online and agents have access to extensive local market data. Yes, it’s still important to work with experienced agents, but they don’t need a shopfront in your suburb to get the best price for your property. “We believe Upside is the way real estate should be. Upside’s standard is other agents’ ‘extras’.” For more information, visit upside.com.au

Avington offers stylish living and security in a brilliant bay setting Avington Point Cook, an over-50s gated community developed by Hallmarc, is proceeding in leaps and bounds, with stage four under construction. Hallmarc’s director, Michael Loccisano, explains to Carole Levy just why Avington is proving such a resounding success. “A month ago, we had our 100th resident make Avington their home,” Michael says. “Residents love it and, as one of the only residential communities in the area, we’ve offered them exceptional value for money and a lifestyle tailor-made for the age group. “When you consider that a block of land in Point Cook will set you back about $400,000, our homes are a truly exceptional buy. Our homes start from $265,000 and rise to $410,000 for a premium corner property with two bedrooms and a study. “Another important advantage our homeowners have, is that we don’t charge entry, exit or deferred management fees at Avington.“ What facilities does Avington offer? • Fully equipped gym • Luxurious dining and lounge rooms • Library Libr and computer room • Bar and games room • Theatre room • Commercial kitchen and function f room • Beauty salon • Bowling green and bocce court • Tennis court • Workshop with car wash • Community garden plots • Barbecue and alfresco areas • Caravan Carav and boat storage What do the homes have? Charming and contemporary homes, with one or two bedrooms, have an elegant neutral palette to suit all furniture styles. Layouts maximise light and space. Every home has a walk-in wardrobe, plush carpet, stone benches and a linen closet. A split-system provides climate control, while outdoors there’s plenty of space for setting up seating, immaculately landscaped gardens, a garden shed and a clothes line. What’s in the surrounding neighbourhood? • Williams Landing station – 30 minutes to the city • Princes Freeway – connecting to the city, Geelong and Bellarine Peninsula • Skeleton Creek Trail’s flora, fauna and unique bird life • Point Cook Coastal Trail, an 863-hectare park connecting with Point Cook Marine Sanctuary • Hobsons Bay Coastal Trail • Sanctuary Lakes and Point Cook Town Centre shopping precincts “Our residents really value the security at Avington,” Michael says. “They know they can travel with peace of mind, knowing everything will be exactly the same when they return. Grandkids can stay for up to four weeks with no fees incurred – and up to two t pets are welcome.”

SPORT Falcons’ fight for title By Tara Murray
City West Falcons celebrate their title. (Shawn Smits)
Lind said she thought nerves played a part. “Our attack end tried very hard to give them a big lead. We weren’t letting the ball go,” she said. “We tried a couple of different strategies and probably complicated things. “At quarter-time we said [let’s] go back to what had been working for us.” After half-time the Falcons took control of the game and extended their lead. The Cougars made a number of changes to counteract the Falcons, but could not stop them. Lind said the playing group was hungry and made the most of the one per centers.
Second half blitz seals win Western Jets have survived a tough examination in the TAC Cup wildcard round to advance to week two of the finals on the back of a 38-point win over Eastern Ranges on Sunday. The Jets were slow out of the blocks, trailing by 10 points at quarter-time and 16 at half-time. There were concerns for the Jets, but coach Torin Baker was not reaching for the panic button because his side had shown signs of life in the second term. “Our boys certainly got a bit of a shock with the way Eastern started,” Baker said. “They played the game on their terms in the first quarter, won a lot of footy around the stoppage and controlled the ball. “We started to make waves in the second quarter, which was comforting, so I don’t think there was too much panic.” Any fears of an upset were put to rest when the Western Jets delivered a second half to remember. The Jets roared to life with a five-goal-to-nil third quarter, which was part of a nine-goal-to-one second half blitz. “Our boys were fantastic in the third quarter,” Baker said. “It was certainly up there with some of our better footy. “We had some leaders really lift in the third quarter and the rest of the guys got behind them.” Captain Xavier O’Halloran and rapidly rising onballer Connor Thar instigated the comeback for the Western Jets with their play from the midfield. Thar has been one of the bolters into draft contention in the second half of the season and showed why with a stellar performance. O’Halloran’s leadership qualities and football ability stood up in a pressure situation. “They were both really good in that third quarter,” Baker said. “They won us a lot of clearances and then the ball stayed in our forward half a fair period of time.” Thar’s form continues to draw praise. The Werribee Districts product came second in the Morrish Medal vote count on Sunday night with 16 votes, just two behind winner Liam Stocker of the Sandringham Dragons. “He’s had a terrific year,” Baker said of Thar. “We calculated that he’s been in our best players 13 out of the 16 games. “He’s had a very consistent season, but particularly his last 10 games, he’s gone from strength to strength.” Emerson Jeka was the Western Jets most
■ At the elite level of sport no one wants to hang on for that last season where it becomes bleedingly obvious the carnival is over. I am sure those thoughts would have been racing through Dale Morris’ mind in recent months as he evaluated his future. In signing a one-year contract for 2019, the elder statesman of the Bulldogs has made many people happy. Unquestionably one of the nicest blokes to ever don the red, white and blue jumper, he is also one of the fiercest competitors and most durable players in the club’s history. His passion for the game and the club shines like a beacon and it will be great to see him running around again in the famous number 38. ■ John Lamont has moved on from Avalon Airport Oval after five years as senior coach and three before that in a development capacity via the North Melbourne alignment. Lamont finished on a high, with his side winning four of the last six games of the year and his final duty will be naming the 2018 Bruce Montgomery Trophy winner later this month. John has wonderful people skills and in the cut-throat environment of elite football, it’s a trait that goes a long way. That, along with his football know-how, will make him a wanted commodity. ■ The search for players is a constant for any football club and there will be many players contemplating their next move in the coming weeks and months. Spotswood Football Club Life Member Bill Bond is on a sub-committee of the Torquay FC which is entering a senior women’s team next year and it is looking for coaches, players and volunteers. If you are making a sea change and want to be involved, contact admin@torquaytigers.com.au ■ I don’t think local and second tier footy cash in enough on the opportunity they have with the AFL bye weekend. Suburban leagues and VFL should fill some of the space normally given to AFL, but they have to do some work to get that space and airtime. In our backyard the Deer Park story is a beauty. If it wins and makes it six straight, what a dynasty. If it gets beaten it is the underdog story of the decade. Either way it is far more interesting than a large slab of what was written last week. If the bye week stays, local clubs should do some work to get some much-needed and deserved publicity.

dangerous forward on the day. Jeka kicked three goals and took an impressive one-handed mark. Daniel Pantalleresco chimed in with three goals, while Cassius White added two. “There was a combination of things that occurred to help get the game on our terms,” Baker said. “One of them was changing up a bit of the
forward structure in that second half, which gave us a bit of a different look up forward.” “Emerson’s ability to lead up and provide a contest was very good. It was nice to see him get some reward in the second half.” Spencer Johnson’s run and carry was another feature of the Jets play.

This year’s title might be the sweetest of them all for City West Falcons coach Marg Lind. With a young playing group and players missing games because of Australian Netball League commitments, Lind had said all along that making finals was a bonus. The Falcons found form in the second half of the season and moved into the top four in the final round, then stepped it up at the right time. On Sunday, all the hard work came together when they defeated Geelong Cougars in a 56-48 win to claim the club’s fifth title in 10 seasons. “I reckon this is nearly the best,” Lind said afterwards. “We’ve had the most struggle as a club, coming to terms with ANL and having to play young kids all over the shop. “We’ve trained really hard, but weren’t seeing results midway. “There’s a real inability to give up.” The Falcons started nervously on Sunday, but settled to lead by a goal at quarter-time. From about midway through the second quarter they took control of the game.
Defender Zoe Davies was named best on court. Lind said she was proud of Davies, who got the nod ahead of Maddy Balson in the second defensive role. “If they went with the smaller line-up we were going with Zoe, if they went with Ruby [Horton], we were going taller with Maddy,” Lind said. “For Zoe, it’s all about mentality and about the self belief. We’ve had a lot of conversations over the last couple of weeks, she had doubted herself. “She deserves to be there.” While the Falcons used just seven players in the grand final, Lind was quick to praise the efforts of the whole squad. She said without those players on the bench who took on a bigger workload earlier in the season, they wouldn’t have got where they did. After the match, Lind revealed that skipper Maggie Lind probably shouldn’t have played. Maggie had a partially torn plantar fascia and was in a lot of pain. Lind said with such a young playing group the future looked bright. “It will be tough again next year,” she said. “We’re heading in the right direction and we’ve rebuilt the culture and we’ve tried to get a different mindset.”

Bulldogs shine despite injury to star For Footscray Lacrosse Club, it was a wildly contrasting week of emotions. The Bulldogs went from the depths of despair on Thursday night to cloud nine by Sunday evening. There was devastation in the Bulldog camp on Thursday when superstar Chris Plumb, the Australian national team captain, went down with a season-ending knee injury. While the weekend was bittersweet because of Plumb’s injury, the mood lifted considerably as the Footscray men’s and women’s teams won their way through to grand finals. The men’s team overcame a four-goal deficit to beat Williamstown 14-11 at PJ Lynch Reserve on Saturday. The women’s team was too strong for Williamstown in a 16-7 victory at Caulfield Park on Sunday. Bulldogs president Tim Lane said Plumb would not want his injury to be a distraction. “The sort of person that he is, he’s not going to be selfish and worry about his own loss,” Lane said.
“He’s just going to look to do everything he can do for the team before the grand final. “He’ll be there on the sidelines and will still be involved with his leadership off-field. “It was good to see the boys play with a lot of heart without him on the field.” Footscray came back from four goals down at quarter-time to win. It was Plumb’s replacement, Nicholas Wynne, who took charge for the Bulldogs, throwing in five goals. “He really stepped up,” Lane said. “He had a fantastic game and filled the void where Chris would’ve played. Williamstown didn’t really have an answer for him.” Lucas Parsons-Quintiao scored three goals for Footscray, while there were two each for James Lawerson, Kane Mollison and Matthew Davies. Footscray will be gunning for its first premiership since 2013 on September 15. The Bulldogs played in three consecutive losing grand finals between 2014-16 and suffered a heartbreaking straight sets finals
exit last season after going undefeated in the home-and-away rounds. Lane believes the side is better placed to finish the job this time around. “With our new coach and sort of a new-look team, we’re much fitter than what we have been, so we have confidence we can run games out,” he said. “We’re just really excited, glad to be back there.” Williamstown will face Surrey Park in the preliminary final this Saturday. The Footscray women’s team will face Newport in the grand final at Newport Ladies Lacrosse Club on Sunday. The Bulldogs are going for back-to-back premierships, while the Porters are featuring in their 45th consecutive grand final and will be looking for redemption after last year’s loss in the season decider. “The girls are really excited,” Lane said. “It should be a good game like it always is between the two teams.” Lance Jenkinson
Eagles strengthen bond By Lance Jenkinson It’s more than a game for grand final-bound Yarraville Seddon. The driving force behind their run to the Western Region Football League division 2 big dance is not measured solely in wins and losses, ladder positions or statistics. It runs deeper than that for the Eagles, particularly in Saturday’s 28-point win over Point Cook in the semi-final at Burbank Oval. Eagles coach Vinnie Turcinovich said he could feel a strong emotional bond between his players and that is what got them over the line. “We’ve had some tragedy happen in the past week to one of the players,” he said. “I don’t want to elaborate on that, but it’s been pretty devastating. “He’s playing for what’s happened in his life and there’s a few other boys going through some hardships. “Just the relationships and the close bond these boys have got for each other, that’s why they deserve to win.” Yarraville Seddon stalled out of the gates. The Eagles – the competition’s highest scoring team, averaging 111 points per game – were kept scoreless in the first quarter. It was an early reminder for a young team that finals is a whole new ball game. “We’re a very young side,” Turcinovich said. “You can tell them so many times that finals are different, that you’ve got to play at your best for the first 10 minutes of the first quarter and to Point Cook’s credit, that’s exactly what they did. “The boys have learnt really quickly from today. “I can guarantee the first quarter in the grand final will be different.” Once Yarraville Seddon got into its groove, it was hard to stop. The Eagles banged on five goals to one in the second quarter to take a slight lead into half-time. The third quarter was an arm wrestle before the Eagles landed the knockout blow with a three-goal-to-one last quarter. “They were closing our space really quickly, not allowing us to play our normal game in the first quarter,” Turcinovich said. “We got numbers to the footy, we lifted our second and third efforts and the work rate lifted. “We moved the ball a little quicker and gave the forwards a chance.” A feature of Yarraville Seddon’s game was the unpredictable forward line. Four players – Michael Tsaloukis, Josh Crofton, Lewis Parsons and Matthew Taylor – kicked two goals apiece. There was a worry about the Eagles’ attack when Corey Salvador, the competition’s

leading goalkicker at the time, went down with a serious knee injury. “We just rotate the players through there,” Turcinovich said. “We’re moving players all the time and it’s hard to defend. “When you get a lot of inside 50s like we do, you have a chance to kick a good score.”

Hot Spotswood shoots straight into sem-final Spotswood was at its efficient best in front of goal in a 23-point win over Werribee Districts in the Western Region Football League division 1 elimination final at Avalon Airport Oval on Sunday. The Woodsmen’s straight shooting in the first and fourth quarters proved the difference on a day when their opponents had the lion’s share of scoring shots. The Woodsmen kicked five goals straight in the first quarter to give their day the kick-start it needed and finished the game strongly with seven goals straight in the final term. Jordan Boyd led the way with three goals, while Tom Langlands, Gareth Newton, David Iaccarino, Matthew Rix and Jordan Dimkovski kicked two each. Spotswood has proven to be Werribee Districts bogey team in 2018 – The Woodsmen won all three meetings between the sides this season. The latest has booked the Woodsmen’s ticket to a semi-final with Hoppers Crossing at Avalon Airport Oval on Sunday. Spotswood will have to turn the tables on Hoppers if it is to cause an upset though, having lost both encounters between the teams during the season. After having the week’s rest as a reward for finishing on top, Altona will take its first steps in the 2018 finals this weekend. The Vikings will square off with Deer Park in a semi-final at Avalon Airport Oval on Saturday with the winner to move through to the grand final. In division 2, Parkside ended North Footscray’s season with a 13-point semi-final win at Burnbank Oval. Luke Buttigieg booted three goals in a best-on-ground display for the Magpies. Parkside has set up a preliminary final with Point Cook at Whitten Oval on Saturday. In division 3, Braybrook’s season has come to a close with a 58-point loss to Wyndham Suns at Dempster Park. The Brookers were just a class below the top three for most of the season, but have built a strong foundation for the future under coach Jason Hamilton. The Suns will move on to face Tarneit in the preliminary final, with Point Cook Centrals awaiting the winner in the grand final. Lance Jenkinson

Altona Magic’s drive stays at full throttle Altona Magic is powering to the line in National Premier League 2 west soccer. Not content with being crowned champion three weeks from the end of the season, the Magic has kept its hot form going to move a dizzying 13 points clear at the top of the ladder. The Magic’s 5-0 mauling of second-placed St Albans Saints at Churchill Reserve on Sunday was their 14th consecutive game unbeaten. They have won 12 of their past 14 matches. Magic coach Goran Lozanovski does not want his team to stop there, though. He is keen to see his club cap its 50th anniversary season with a victory over Moreland Zebras in front of adoring fans at Paisley Park on Saturday. “Our boys have been all class,” Lozanovski said. “We’ve got one more game to make it 15 weeks unbeaten. “Hopefully, we’ll have all our juniors there and really celebrate the moment.
“We’ll have a few things happening pre-game and after the game there will be some celebrations happening in the clubrooms.” Not even a disrupted week could throw Altona off its game on Sunday. The Magic has scaled back training to two nights a week since wrapping up the title, but could get only one session in after a fire at a nearby factory forced cancellation of the main session. “It’s been quite a relaxed week, but when we get in that changeroom, everyone just gets their game face on,” Lozanovski said. “The boys had their targets to hit. They wanted to make up for the first time we met them [and lost].” Altona was at its brutal best. The Magic scored twice in the opening eight minutes, through Daniel Kuczynski and Jordan Wilkes. Kuczynski has scored in four games in a row to take his tally to 10 goals in 12 games. Jon McShane, another regular goalscorer, hit the back of the net just after the break to make
it 3-0. McShane has three goals in his past two games to take his tally to 17 for the year. It was clearly party time for the Magic when substitutes Daniel Mitwali and Melvin Becket came on in the second half and scored to complete the rout. “Both boys who came off the bench scored goals, so it was a tremendous feeling,” Lozanovski said. “The motivation within the group, seeing the boys come off the bench and making an impact, their celebrations were awesome together.” Altona’s midfield trio of Troy Ruthven, James McGarry and Ben Litfin were outstanding.

Finals fortune on the line

By Lance Jenkinson Williamstown is ready to exorcise its Victorian Football League preliminary final demons. The Seagulls advanced to the penultimate week of the finals with a 25-point win over minor premiers Richmond in the qualifying final at the Swinburne Centre on Saturday night. Since its last premiership in 2015, Williamstown has been knocked out of the finals at the preliminary final stage in the past two seasons. Seagulls coach Andrew Collins believes the harsh learning curves will stand the side in good stead for their next shot on that stage. “To get into a prelim final is really hard, to get into a grand final in the final eight system is really difficult because it’s do or die on that prelim final day,” he said. “I’d rather be in this position every year than not. “The mathematics is such that if we keep putting ourselves in that position, we’ll win them as well.” Williamstown has been one of the hottest teams in the competition since near the halfway mark of the season. After round nine, the Seagulls were ninth on the ladder and giving no inclination of their premiership contender status. In the last 10 games of the home-and-away rounds, the Seagulls won nine out of 10, including confidence-boosting wins over top two sides Richmond and Casey Demons. The momentum rolled into week one of the finals for Williamstown. “I think this year our game is as strong as it’s been and it’s not reliant on any individual,” Collins said. “I feel like I’ve got quite a few options on game day to make some significant changes if things aren’t working.” With the AFL having a pre-finals bye and the VFL taking centre stage on Channel Seven in prime time television on Saturday night, it was Williamstown that rose to the occasion. The Seagulls showed no signs of stage fright as they marched to a convincing victory. “It was a real credit to Channel Seven and they should get all the accolades for putting a VFL game on in prime time,” Collins said. “I suppose the old cliche is that it becomes a game of footy really quickly. “The initial nerves or excitement of that prime time television quickly faded and we had to get down to business.” After a closely fought first half, Williamstown kicked clear with three goals to one in the third quarter to lead by 19 points. All that could stop the Seagulls at that point was the lights going out at the venue, which forced umpires to delay the game. Even with the momentum sapping time out, Williamstown remained focused on the task at

Footscray is into the preliminary final in Hockey Victoria women’s premier league. The Bulldogs shocked minor premier Hawthorn 1-0 in the qualifying final on the back of a match-winning goal from Olivia Colasurdo. The Lachie Anderson-coached Bulldogs will have the benefit of a week’s rest before facing the winner of the Doncaster-Mentone semi-final for the right to move through to the grand final. In men’s premier league, Footscray was knocked out of the premiership race after losing to Waverley in a heartbreaking penalty situation.

Williamstown CYMS will be forced to take the long route if it is to climb to the summit in Victorian Amateur Football Association Premier C. The CYs were pipped by three points in a semi-final nail-biter against Fitzroy at Bill Lawry Oval on Saturday. Mathew Montebello’s CYs led by two points at three-quarter time in a low-scoring game, but Fitzroy kicked two of the three last quarter goals for a thrilling win. CYs will play their preliminary final against Old Geelong at Box Hill City Oval on Saturday.

hand with a goal from Sam Dunell early in the fourth quarter boosting the lead to 26. Richmond did not give up though, causing a bit of panic late on, but Lachie George kicked the game sealer deep into time on. “I thought that our pressure was outstanding in that third quarter and that was a small difference,” Collins said. The eyes of the football world were on Michael Gibbons – one of the VFL’s most highly rated midfielders and widely urged to be drafted this
year. Gibbons only enhanced his reputation with a 35 possession game. Collins rates him highly and would dearly love for AFL recruiters to have a closer look. “I’ve coached too long to be mucking around with this,” he said. “He’s an elite footy talent that needs an opportunity [in the AFL].” Williamstown will await the winner of the semi-final clash between Geelong and Box Hill Hawks on Sunday.
Yarraville Glory claimed its first win in over a month when it rolled Essendon Royals 2-1 in Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 1 at Ormond Park on Saturday. Altona City played out an entertaining 2-2 draw with FC Clifton Hill at Quarries Park. In men’s state league 2, Altona East Phoenix had its first win since July, beating Mill Park 1-0. In women’s state league 3, Altona Magic hammered Point Cook 5-1, with Gabriella Panagiotou scoring a hat-trick, while Altona City won 1-0 over Melbourne University.
