Female footy funds change Williamstown Football Club has secured a $1.5 million low-interest state government loan to improve female facilities at Burbank Oval. The club, which will also receive $273,000 from AFL Victoria, will use the money for two new unisex changerooms and lighting upgrades at the oval. The changerooms are part of the club’s $4.6 million redevelopment plans, which include match-day officials’ rooms, offices for Seagulls and Western Jets staff, and ground drainage and reconstruction. Club chief executive Jason Reddick said the changerooms were needed for Williamstown’s VFLW team and because of the growing use of its venue by local community clubs. “Our ground, last year, hosted nearly 40 different teams, over 3200 participants,” he said. “And with Western Region football finals being played there, VAFA finals being played there, there’s a genuine need to have club rooms to accommodate those sort of uses, as well as the local clubs and schools that come and utilise the ground throughout the year.” No.1 ticket holder, Williamstown MP Wade Noonan said he was proud of the club’s approach to create an inclusive culture and of its successes.

Residents challenge rates More than 400 Maribyrnong residents reeling from skyrocketing rates bills are challenging their property valuations. Star Weekly last month reported Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay ratepayers were coming forward in droves to say their properties had been wildly over-valued, including a 96-year-old Footscray man who was told his home’s value has more than doubled in two years – pushing up his rates bill by $1938 to $3832. While the average general rate increase is capped at 2.25 per cent across all properties, individual rates fluctuate more broadly in a revaluation year.

Maribyrnong council has so far received 414 objections since issuing the latest rates notices – more than five times the 73 objections lodged in the previous valuation year. Councillors were last week confronted by an overflowing public gallery at the monthly ordinary meeting. Maribyrnong chief executive Stephen Wall repeatedly deflected blame for the situation, pinning the spike on state government regulations requiring rates to be pegged according to the independent valuations. But angry ratepayers accused the council of failing to adequately curb expenditure and stand up for residents. Long-standing Footscray residents were

particularly vocal, arguing their rate payments had become untenable due to rezoning that has made the area more attractive to developers. They argued it was unfair to charge them according to the value their property could attract were their homes levelled to make way for multi-storey apartments. Footscray home owner Yvonne Collett said council rezoning her property had doubled her rate bill to $6000. Another ratepayer said he would happily sell his home for the valued amount, but would be unlikely to gain that price on the open market. Steve said elderly residents should not be forced to sell their homes to pay their rates. “My property in the two years has gone up

88 per cent in regards to the valuation of the land,” he said. “I mean that’s ridiculous. Even though these valuations were done independently, it’s not the case … we’re all in the same position here. I’m contesting it.” Mr Wall conceded the system was not ideal, but said the council’s hands were tied. Council’s director of corporate services Celia Haddock said the council offers one of the highest pensioner rebates in Victoria and does not charge penalties for late pensioner payments. “Payment plans and options for residents that are having difficulty paying are also available,” she said.

Sobering road crash figures released cent from the previous year. However, Hobsons Bay (151 collisions), Maribyrnong (154) and Melton (218) all recorded accident decreases from the previous 12 months. Four motorcyclists were among the fatalities, including a motorcyclist who veered from a Kurunjang Road and struck a tree. Other road fatalities over the past financial year included a two-car, head-on collision along Ballan Road in Wyndham Vale which resulted in the death of one of the drivers, and

a pedestrian on a mobility scooter who died when they were struck by a car while crossing the road on Market Road in Newport. Westgate Highway Patrol Sergeant Marty Wallace said distracted motorists and pedestrians had caused a number of collisions, many ending in serious injuries and fatalities. “Targeted road user behaviours continue to be drink and drug driving, unauthorised drivers, distraction driving – including mobile phones – and seat belts,” Sergeant

VU staff walk off the job amid talks

By Goya Dmytryshchak An Altona Meadows couple are attemping to snake-proof their home after their dog was bitten and nine snakes in 10 days were caught on their property. Kim Meurer and John Hillas, whose house in Eucalypt Court backs onto wetlands, said the suburb was inundated with snakes. “We always get snakes – nearly every year – but this year’s been remarkable where we’ve had so many in such a short time,” Ms Meurer said. “I’ve got two huskies and unfortunately the boy huskie, Boston, got bitten this time, so nearly $4000 in saving him.” She said the dogs were undergoing “snake evasion training” while Mr Hillas was installing snake wire and trying to plug every hole on the property. “One day was a little bit emotional for me because I’ve got one grandchild and I love her coming over on the weekends, but my daughter has trained her now when they get out of the car [to watch for snakes],” Ms Meurier said. “And we’re very cautious when we go out the backyard – we’re just constantly surveying the area, we have to be really vigilant.” Stewart Gatt, aka, Stewy the Snake Catcher, said he was receiving between 10-15 call-outs a day, mainly for tiger snakes. He said he was bound by law to relocate the snakes to within five kilometres of where they were caught. “There is a always a possibility that they can come back depending on where we let them go, but we try to find them a nice open area with plenty of food, plenty of water and stick them in there and hope for the best,” he said. Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning wildlife officer Abby Smith said snakes were emerging from hibernation to bask in the sun and search for food and a mate. “Snake controllers must relocate any snakes caught within a suitable habitat on public land,” she said. “This is to ensure they aren’t moved beyond their natural habitat. “When we choose to live in areas dense with wildlife, snakes will usually be a part of the ecological landscape.

Wallace said. Meanwhile, police impounded a total 647 cars in 2017 – 306 of those from Wyndham – and are on track to impound 700 cars by year’s end. Jim Giddings from road safety advocacy group RoadSafe Westgate added: “we still have a long way to go to reduce the over-representation of young drivers involved in road crashes”.

snakes occur should have immediate access to a wide, elastic bandage capable of covering an entire adult limb, and know how to apply the ‘pressure immobilisation’ first aid technique.” Ms Smith said all snake bites should be considered life-threatening. Snakes are protected under the Wildlife Act and it is illegal to capture, harm, or kill them.

Victoria University staff have walked off the job in an escalation of their industrial dispute with management. The 24-hour strike last Tuesday was just one of a range of planned actions in the long-running tussle to approve a new enterprise bargaining agreement. VU management argues the proposed EBA offers a fair salary, protects generous leave benefits and flexible work arrangements. But NTEU Victoria University branch president Stuart Martin said the proposal strikes “a very hard right position” and strips out vital protections. “They decided to go to an all-staff vote and comprehensively lost, with 77 per cent voting against it,” he said. “We expected they would come back to the table, but instead they have spent money engaging consultancy firm Deloitte to do a survey.” The stoush comes as management ramps up efforts to expand its first-year ‘block model’ of teaching subjects one at a time in intensive four-week blocks to the second and third year. The move looms as a sticking point, given the work that would be needed to reshape courses to fit the new model in time for the start of next semester. Further industrial action has been flagged, including bans on overtime. A VU spokeswoman said the staff survey was being undertaken to elicit feedback as to how the proposal could be reshaped in line with their priorities. “We have told our staff that we remain focused on working with them to find an Enterprise Agreement Package that meets the needs of us all.” Negotiations have been scheduled to continue this week.

A rare chance to act out your wildest puppet ideas is opening up in Footscray. One-of-a-kind puppet troupe Snuff Puppets will be throwing open their doors for workshops over the next three Saturdays. ‘Snuff Skool’ students will learn large-scale puppetry skills, sharing ideas and creating stories together. Snuff Puppets artistic director Andy Freer said the day-long workshops will have plenty of freedom to improvise and play. “People can have a taste of what it’s like to get inside the puppets,” he said. “I often talk about people disappearing into the puppets – people get right into the performances.” Classes will culminate in an improvised

roaming performance on the streets of Footscray. Freer said the opportunity to don the puppet suits may be extra attractive to people with an interest in performing but who may be a bit shy. “Once you are in the puppet suit and you are out there you are in another zone,” he said. “We’ve had past participants say it’s the best experience of their life.” Workshops are for those aged 14 and above and will be held 9.30am-5.30pm, November 3, 10 and 17 at the Footscray Drill Hall, 395 Barkly Street. Tickets ($35-$45) include one workshop, bookings via snuffpuppets.com/snuffskool2018 Benjamin Millar

Fire aftermath anger smoulders By Benjamin Millar Frustrated residents affected by the West Footscray fire are calling for greater transparency and a swifter response by authorities. Two months after fire tore through an industrial site housing chemical waste, spewing a thick black cloud into the sky and flooding nearby Stony Creek with harmful toxins, no action has been taken against the site’s owner or tenant. Residents abutting Stony Creek have slammed the lack of action to address their

concerns and what they say has been poor communication by Maribyrnong council. The council, the lead agency in the response effort, has defended its consultation and engagement to date. Claire Halford, who lives near Cruickshank Park and whose family suffered ill health following the fire, told last week’s council meeting she had felt continuously dismissed over concerns she has attempted to convey since the fire. Ms Halford said while the council had met behind closed doors with the friends groups associated with Cruickshank Park and Stony

Creek, other residents living along the creek corridor had been left in the dark. “I do feel that we’re not being heard,” she said. “It would be great if the council could hear the frustration of the residents who have felt very unsafe, very unengaged and quite dismissed by the council. “The residents have not felt safe and want more engagement by the council now, not some time in the future.” Maribyrnong planning services director Nigel Higgins said the EPA, Melbourne Water and the council were working on a recovery plan for Stony Creek.

“Extensive community consultation has been carried out since council became responsible for co-ordinating the recovery,” he said. “We fully understand the concerns of residents and we now are issuing a weekly bulletin through our website to provide the most up-to-date information.” Mr Higgins said the council would be calling for community members to nominate for a new stakeholder advisory group. “We will be inviting all residents to take part in that process,” he said. The police investigation into the cause of the fire remains ongoing.

A grin and beer it fest This year’s Williamstown Heritage Beer and Cider Festival promises to provide a very stein time. One of Melbourne’s oldest ports, Williamstown once had more than 40 pubs within a two-kilometre radius. In the spirit of those days, Willy Beer Fest organisers are bringing a swag of local brewers to the waterfront Seaworks Maritime Precinct. There’ll also be live music, food trucks and – new this year – the Willy BBQ Cook Off. Terri Jackson, of the Waterfront West Group, said there would be a great line-up of independent Aussie brewers alongside a few cider makers. “Participating brewers include Thunder Road, Hop Nation, Two Birds, Three Greens, Bonehead, Holgate, Cavalier and Colonial, with many more to be announced and 100-plus beers and ciders on offer on the day,” she said.

“Willy Beer Fest works in conjunction with popular venues in the west, including Hop Heads, Prince Albert, Stags Head and Lay Low Bar. “Our Visit the Breweries campaign encourages ticket-holders to drink at partner exhibitors’ venues.” The festival has a partnership with Food Bank Victoria, hoping this year to raise $10,000, which equates to 20,000 meals. The Williamstown Heritage Beer and Cider Festival will be at Seaworks, 82 Nelson Place, Williamstown, on Saturday, November 17 from noon to 7pm. For details and tickets, visit willybeerfest.com.au.

Big plans for Williamstown Rose By Goya Dmytryshchak Detailed plans for the partial demolition of one of Williamstown’s oldest pubs to make way for a four-storey apartment block and wine bar have been released. As reported by Star Weekly in August, Pantelli Investments has applied to Hobsons Bay council to build 22 dwellings at the Rose of Australia. A social impact assessment by ARG Planning, submitted on the developer’s behalf, says the two-storey Victorian building is covered by a heritage overlay. “The building was constructed in 1865 and is the earliest surviving commercial building in Ferguson Street,” the report states. “It dates from an era when Williamstown was the main port of Melbourne.” The project would retain the hotel building and its roof fronting Ferguson Street. “Later single-storey additions at the rear of the building will be removed to facilitate the development,” the report states. “A commercial (wine bar) use is proposed at ground level of the hotel building fronting Furguson Street, with apartments introduced at level 1.” The application proposes a basement carpark with stacker arrangements to providing 29 residential spaces and two for the wine bar. The proposed apartments are expected to be priced at $550,000-$700,000 for one bedroom, $500,000-$800,000 for two bedrooms and $900,000-$1.25 million for three bedrooms. The pub was established in 1867 and has a colourful past. One of its most eccentric publicans was New Zealander Denis Irwin, who took over in 1987 and is thought to have been the first to introduce topless barmaids to Williamstown.

In a class of their own Four teachers have been recognised in Altona City Rotary Club’s inaugural Vocational Awards for Teaching Excellence. Amy O’Dowd from Newport Lakes Primary School was nominated by the parents of class 10. Among her qualities, parents noted she went above and beyond to help children with learning disabilities and had developed a strong rapport with families. Hobson’s Bay mayor Angela Altair presented the awards last week. Josephine Montalti, of Laverton P-12 College, was awarded for being a positive influence in the lives of many students and for seeking improvement for every student and staff member. Sally Tonge, of Wembley Primary School in Yarraville, was recognised for being inspirational with a laser-like focus on learning, a collaborative culture and a focus on data. Julie Mason, principal of Baden Powell College in Tarneit, was honoured for offering students the opportunity to join service clubs. Rotary past district governor Murray Verso said teachers were often unsung heroes. “The outstanding work of our best teachers often goes unheralded,” he said.

An interview with Art & Industry Festival Filmmaker, Heather van Heerwaarden Williamstown resident, artist Heather van Heerwaarden, has a fine arts degree majoring in painting. Over more than twenty years, she has worked across many different media and first found her feet with filmmaking during the Art & Industry Festival in 2016. “Williamstown is surrounded by maritime industry and you hear the sounds of tugboats all the time,” she said. “I was fascinated to find out what really goes on out there.” ‘Sealegs’ was shot entirely on her i-Phone partly because there was very little room in the wheelhouse. “I did a few workshops at Apple in videography and I’ve been surprised at the high resolution and quality of the end result.” For the 2018 Festival, Heather is curating a series of four new films about local industries, including O-I Glass and Two Birds Brewing in Spotswood, Link Pumps in Williamstown and Heather’s own film ‘Shimmer’, about renowned costume designer and art teacher Anna Kolusniewski from Aa is for Art, also shot on her i-Phone. Anna, pictured above with Heather has a studio in South Kingsville

and was commissioned by the Art & Industry Festival to make costumes using bottle tops and other brewing paraphernalia from Two Birds Brewing. The film project is called ‘Container Cinemas.’ Shipping containers will pop up in Paine Reserve in Newport on Saturday 17 November, Railway Avenue in Laverton on Friday 23 November and Logan Reserve in Altona on Saturday 24 November. All films will screen between 6:00 and 10:00pm and the filmmakers will be present at various times to answer questions. “There is something lovely and intimate about a container cinema,” Heather said. “I think people will really enjoy seeing films shot in familiar locations that tell their own stories.” The Art & Industry Festival 2018 runs from 16-25 November. Entry into the Container Cinemas is free. Find out how about all the events by subscribing to the AIF18 newsletter at www.artandindustryfestival.com.au

Ivan’s terrible time on TV

Nominate for the Stony Creek Recovery Stakeholder Advisory Group

(Joe Mastroianni)

Five community members who live, work or study in Maribyrnong are being sought who have a keen interest in the recovery of the Creek.

Altona North’s Ivan Krslovic left The Bachelorette in dramatic circumstances last week. Ivan, 29, was featured in Star Weekly last September saying he aimed to become Australia’s answer to Channing Tatum after winning a dance scholarship in Los Angeles. Ivan, aka Ivan the Aussie, grew up in Altona North, going to St Leo the Great Primary School and Emmanuel College (St Paul’s). Speaking to Star Weekly about his elimination from the show, Ivan explained what happened in his last date with Ali Oetjen and fellow contestant Bill Goldsmith. “One of the boys threw me under a bus and

said I was using the show to get closer to Step Up [film franchise],” he said. “And another one of the boys threw Bill under the bus and said he’s just telling [Ali] what she wants to hear and that he’s fake. “I think it’s ridiculous. I knew I was there for the right reasons and I was really invested in Ali and having a future with her, so it did hurt getting my name called out on the date card.” He said he also learnt a valuable lesson. “There’s no bro-code on something like this,” Ivan said. But there is good news: “I am an eligible bachelor … so, if you know anyone.”

Should nominations exceed the number of vacancies, public voting will determine the successful applicants.

12403991-RA45-18 10072121-01

The Group will comprise residents and representatives from key stakeholders, community groups and business. The Group will advise on the development and implementation of the Recovery Plan for Stony Creek following the warehouse fire in Somerville Road.

Peek behind curtains of suburbia By Benjamin Millar The fading glories of Melbourne suburbs have been captured for posterity by Seddon photographer Warren Kirk. The documentary photographer behind the acclaimed Westography book has wandered beyond his beloved western suburbs, collecting more than 150 striking images from further afield for his latest published collection. Nearly all of the photos in Suburbia: The Familiar and Forgotten were taken in the past decade, a period in which Kirk has observed rapid change in the suburban landscape. “The pace of change is speeding up, especially if you go out to Brunswick and some of those northern suburbs where it’s just apartment after apartment,” he said. In Suburbia, antiquated barbershops and vacant shopfronts rub up against the kitsch and the colourful in a collection that invites the eye to drift through suburbs from all points of the Melbourne compass. Kirk again provides his trademark glimpses behind the curtains of homes and workshops populated by the elderly inhabitants of a disappearing suburban dream. “The face of Australia is definitely changing,” he said. “A lot of my photography is a post-war Australia, with a lot of European migrants, but in another 30 years’ time Australia will be far more diverse than it was then and even is now.” Now that Kirk has retired, what began as a hobby more than 30 years ago has grown into a full-time passion. “It’s a reflection of what I do most days,” he said. “Virtually all I do is walk the dog and think about photography. Sometimes I just end up in a suburb, finding little pockets of gold.” Kirk has long attracted a cult following,

Armed robber wins right to appeal By Goya Dmytryshchak A man facing deportation from Australia after serving jail time for an attempted home invasion and carjacking at Newport has won leave to appeal his armed robbery conviction. As reported by Star Weekly in March, Mazin Putrus, 28, was sentenced in the County Court to five years and two months in jail, with a minimum of three years and 10 months, for his part in the 2016 armed robbery and other offences. Last December, he was convicted of one charge of armed robbery following a trial

in the same court. He had previously pleaded guilty to charges of attempted aggravated burglary, theft and committing an indictable offence (aggravated burglary) while on bail. Putrus and his family, from a persecuted Christian minority in Iraq, had fled to Syria when he was 14 and arrived in Australia on humanitarian visas in 2009. At the time of his conviction, County Court Judge Susan Cohen said his visa had been cancelled and he was “most likely” to be deported upon release from prison. The Court of Appeal heard Putrus arrived at

a Newport property with a co-offender about 3.45pm on April 13, 2016. A third accomplice arrived at the same time in a separate vehicle. The property owner was inside watching them on CCTV as they tried to enter. At that point, a second victim arrived at the property and parked his Holden Commodore outside the front gate. The court heard Putrus opened the driver’s side door and told the victim to get out. Putrus got in the car and drove it a short distance down the street before returning to the property. The court heard his two co-offenders had

threatened the victim, using him as leverage to get the home owner to open the front door. Putrus returned to the property while these threats were being made. The door was not opened and the three offenders then left the scene in the victim’s car. Putrus is appealing against the armed robbery conviction on the grounds that the trial judge erred. The Court of Appeal granted leave to appeal based on Putrus having already stolen the Holden Commodore before the victim was threatened at the front door of the property.

Altona Yacht Club is hosting a Discover Sailing Day for people to go out on the water with an experienced sailor for free. More than 65 sailing clubs statewide are taking part in the Australian Sailing initiative. Altona’s vice-commodore Gail Lines said the club prided itself on an inclusive and diverse membership and welcomed all people to come for a short sail, look around the facilities and find out about the programs and courses. “There is something for the whole family and even kids as young as five years old can sail under guidance,” Lines said. “People of all abilities are most welcomed. “The club also offer accessible facilities for people with a disability.” Australian Sailing regional manager Gavin Wall said last year’s Discover Sailing Day had more than 4000 participants statewide. “The family atmosphere and opportunity to sail with experienced sailors, combined with

the beautiful locations, really showcases club life,” he said. Altona’s Yacht Club at 10 Beach Street, Seaholme, will host Discover Sailing Day on Sunday, November 11 between 10am and 2pm, and people wanting to sail should allow at least one to two hours. All boats and safety equipment are provided. Participants should wear clothes and shoes they don’t mind getting wet, a hat and sunscreen.

Optraffic is switched on In significant signs of the times, the work, services and products of Optraffic will soon be seen by motorists and residents all over the western suburbs and Victoria. Managing Director Dean Faranda has been busy establishing Optraffic’s newest branch in Williamston North, getting it ready to meet traffic management and screen advertising needs of a wide variety of organisations and projects. Business Development Manager, Rebecca Petrovic, says it’s all systems go since the branch was officially opened on October 25, with a partner representative from China coming out to cut the ribbon.

“We don’t just provide high-quality, affordable products – we offer 24/7 after-sales support. So if a piece of equipment isn’t working properly, we can have someone quickly on the ground. Some companies in this industry don’t offer that, but we’re very focused on providing top customer service. That’s the main reason we’ve seen such rapid growth – there’s an acknowledgement that we do things right.”

Norah Chu, Steven Kaisis, Rebecca Petrovic, Dobri Maksimovic, John Xu, Dean Faranda, Matt Perry, Marko Cenic and Josh Inskip. (Damjan Janevski) Optraffic also has the ability to modify products to meet specific needs. The company is building a large factory in China to facilitate quick supply and ongoing innovation. So what products does Optraffic supply?

“We have advertising boards that are five colour as well as full colour video boards,” Rebecca says. “They can be mounted on trailers or on walls and really help to get our clients’ messages out in eye-catching, innovative ways.”

The product range is wide, with spare parts also provided.

Rebecca says Optraffic understand service.

Included are custom-made vehicle cages and fit-outs, variable message signs, arrow boards, lighting towers, generators and many other types of traffic and safety equipment.

“We’ve developed the business around meeting client requirements,” she says. “If a prospective customer touches base with us at our Williamstown North branch, they will find their

sales and service inquiries responded to promptly and effectively. “Our team, drawn from many different industries, offers experience and expertise, as well as an ability to spot product development ideas and innovation. “We’re in a dynamic industry and respond accordingly, keeping abreast of trends and maintaining quality standards.” Optraffic, 35 Chelmsford Street, Williamstown North.

balcony, having a drink and listening to music,” says the vendor. In the central kitchen find stone benches, a walk-in pantry and quality appliances, including the integrated Liebhen refrigerator. There are four large bedrooms, all of them carpeted and with fantastic built-in robing. The main bedroom is on the ground level and includes beautiful views of wetlands via large picture windows, a substantial office area, walk-in robes and a large en suite. This level also hosts the neatly concealed European laundry, set to the side in the

hall, and there’s access to the double garage. The guest suite on the third level has beautiful floor-to-ceiling bay views and a built-in office space. This room could be a dedicated office, a play room or teenager’s retreat. Two further bedrooms on this level are of a generous size and are well lit and welcoming.

One of the profound advantages of living on Waterfront Place is the direct access to the path that meanders through the wetlands and on to Williamstown Beach. Being away from the hustle and bustle of Williamstown central means you can enjoy peace and quiet, watching birds in their natural environment every morning with your coffee or tea – all while knowing inner-city living and style is an easy drive or walk away.

How to sell your “dream” home The real estate market is increasingly competitive; buyers are savvy and often not prepared to compromise. In many cases, they’re looking to buy not just a home, but a lifestyle. An open house is your chance to showcase your home at its best, sell the “dream” to potential buyers, and secure a top-dollar sale.

Industry insiders offer these tips: 1. Spruce up the garden The front yard is your first chance to make a good impression, and it’s worth investing some time to get it looking its best. 2. Freshen up the facade Stand outside the front door and look at it with fresh eyes. A neglected facade will make people feel like the home hasn’t been well maintained. • Clean front door and walls • Buy a fresh doormat • Add pot plants 3. Make an entrance Clear away all clutter that can pile up near the front door, and remove any furniture that’s too large for the space. 4. Declutter the entire home Think minimal: clear crowded shelving units, keeping only a few key pieces. Clearing all horizontal surfaces can transform a room’s look. 5. Remove personal items and family photos A primary objective should be to make interiors look beautiful, but impersonal, so people can imagine themselves living in the space.

6. Add value by adding function If possible, show people more living zones. This can be as simple as creating a reading nook by a window. In a larger home, style the smallest bedroom as something else, such as a home office or playroom. 7. Style the kitchen Remove everything from benchtops and soften the look with a beautiful oversized bowl or platter, or some cut flowers. • Pay particular attention to cleaning cooktop, oven, sink and tap. • Take “stuff” off fridge door. 8. Style the bedrooms Clear all surfaces and remove personal items. Make the bed the focal point, dressed up in its “Sunday best” bed linen. Turn on matching lamps on the bedside tables to create soft glow. 9. Style the bathroom Conceal all personal items. Make sure every surface is sparkling. New towels and flowers help. 10. Put away any pet food bowls and beds. This is an edited version of a story by Houzz’s Gabrielle Chariton on domain. com.au

Think minimal: Create a beautiful, impersonal interior so people can imagine themselves living in the space. (iStock)

FOOD REVIEW

CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir road tests an old favourite For as long as I can remember, 123 Nicholson Street has been occupied by a chicken shop. Has it ever been anything else? In any case, these days it is something to behold. Time To Eat is run by husband-and-wife team Harera and Lageal Amea. He boasts Lebanese heritage; she, Indian background. Backgrounds of their staff members range through Lebanese, Nepalese and Fijiian. On my visits here I have noted an equally diverse customer base that mirrors many of the eateries in the area, including those of the three ostensibly Turkish kebab houses. The United Nations ain’t got nuthin’ on us! The Time To Eat salad display features the expected gloopy coleslaw and seafood extender offering (familiar from chicken shops everywhere) – but also tabouli and a Greek salad. Another cabinet boasts a handsome range of Lebanese-style pizzas and pies. I take a spicy potato and a lamb pie home with me; they’re excellent. At the front of the shop are Lebanese sweets. The chicken here come in varieties such as lemon and herb and tandoori. My half chook, tabouli and chips costs a top-notch $16 with a can of soft drink. In truth, there is only the faintest whiff of tandoori flavour about my chicken, but it’s still pretty good – as is the tabouli. I see my chips being doused with some sort

TIME TO EAT A AT Address: 123 Nicholson Street, Footscray Phone: 0405 526 729 of chicken salt variant, missing by a millisecond the opportunity to get them with plain salt. But even that doesn’t phase, such a nice time am I having. Otherwise the chips are hot and crisp.

They must have seen something in the games I did play.” A 170-centimetre utility player, Davies was used in a variety of roles when she got on the park this year. “I’ve been playing a lot on the wing or as an outside midfielder, but I feel like I’m a bit untapped at the moment,” she said. “I don’t mind playing in defence and [having] that freedom of coming off half-back and reading the play. Both last year and this year my goal at the start of the season has been to get drafted, and that’s what I’ve been working towards. So I guess I need some new goals now.”

Davies said working with the team at Footscray would help her with the transition to the national stage, with the AFLW and VFLW sides often training together and having access to similar facilities. “The Bulldogs treated us equally with the AFL girls all year, so knowing the area and the club already makes it a lot easier to transition, I think,” Davies said. “Their culture is so positive, successful and really well driven. “Even though they’ve just won the premiership, they’re all hungry to repeat, so it will be good to be their teammate and grow as a footballer around that group.” Ewen McRae

Cats snap up Sophie By Ewen McRae Sophie Van De Heuvel has never let a bit of travel get in the way of following her sporting dreams. The Ballarat 17-year-old, who played VFLW football for Williamstown this season will ply her trade on the big stage in 2019, after she was snapped up by Geelong with the second overall pick in the AFLW draft last week. Van De Heuvel enjoyed a breakout first season with Williamstown in the VFL this year, after several years of strong performances for the Greater Western Victoria Rebels in the TAC Cup and a stellar National Championships for the Vic Country team this year. Speaking on SEN radio, Van De Heuvel said she was excited to be joining Geelong for their first season in the AFLW competition. “It’s an absolute honour to be drafted to Geelong,” Van De Heuvel said. “I found out two days before the draft that I would be taken at pick two, so it’s all been very exciting since then. “I think mum had a few tears when I went up to get my jumper, and my family have been so supportive and my biggest role models so I can’t thank them enough.” A midfielder and half-forward, Van De Heuvel has lined up an impressive array of onfield achievements this year, including AFLW under-18 All Australian, TAC Cup Team of the Year, and under-18 State of Origin representative. She also performed well at the draft combine, setting the best running vertical jump score, as well as the second fastest 20-metre sprint. This all came as she juggles year 12, as well as a promising cricket career which has included being named best first year player in Victoria Premier Cricket playing with Plenty Valley. She only began playing football three years ago and plans to play in the Women’s Big Bash League this summer with Geelong’s permission, while still training with them ahead of the AFLW season in February 2019. “I started footy a little bit late because of cricket, so it was straight from youth girls to the TAC Cup for me, and then this year in the VFL which was really good for me,” Van De Heuvel said. “Geelong’s been pretty flexible and really supportive in letting me juggle both sports so fingers crossed it all goes to plan. “It’s been pretty difficult to juggle it all, with cricket training twice a week, and footy training twice a week, and then school, but I’ve had great support from family and friends. “I hope I don’t have to choose one sport over the other, but I guess in the future it might end up that way so we’ll see how we go.” While it’s still early days after her drafting, Van De Heuvel said she was looking forward to joining her new teammates and getting into the hard work ahead of the season.

IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ Next Tuesday Matt Hill will call the race that stops the nation. He called Winx to her fourth Cox Plate last Saturday, but it wasn’t always the Group One superstar races for the Altona resident. Hill started at the bottom, or not very far from it, calling dogs in his teens. He was trying to get a foot in the door and got an opportunity through Mr Clayton to call races with literally two dogs at Werribee. Mr Clayton is Alan Clayton, a dog breeder and well-known identity around Werribee, especially the Werribee Football Club where he has been a player, committee man, fundraiser, sponsor, you name it. ■ Mark Williams is making his mark in the west, now that he knows it does not cease at Williamstown. He spoke at the Cox Plate lunch and told the story of the tie that made the 2004 AFL grand final ending so memorable. You will remember his famous choke gesture to the grandstand that day, and his post-game speech castigating the major sponsor of the Power. The tie he was wearing at the time was auctioned at a Port Adelaide function not long after the history-making win and went under the hammer for $38,000. It was bought by Tony Santic, owner of Makybe Diva, which has won three Melbourne Cups and one Werribee Cup. ■ The Western Melbourne Group is looking good in its quest for one of the two A League licenses the FFA will grant in the next expansion of the competition. The group is now in the final six contenders and is confident of success. There is no doubt it would be an enormous boost for the City of Wyndham and the west in general. Soccer definitely needs a base in the west of Melbourne to grow the sport and to service the growing participation and interest from the area. We can only hope that the shoot-yourself-in-the-foot mentality that has been the hallmark of soccer’s hierarchy does not strike here. ■ Deer Park Cricket Club is holding a past players’ and reunion day from 2pm on Saturday, November 10 at its home ground John McLeod Reserve, Deer Park. The club is looking forward to welcoming back past champions such as Les Joslin and Terry McGarity, among others. The will be a barbecue, cold beverages and non-stop story telling for all to enjoy. For more details contact Mark McGoldrick on 0408 575 596.

Jess Davies won’t have to go far to find her new AFLW teammates, with the Footscray VFL player snapped up by the Western Bulldogs at last week’s draft. Davies, 22, went to the Bulldogs with pick 46 in the AFLW draft – the final pick for the Bulldogs. She said the reality of realising a dream was still sinking in. “I honestly didn’t expect to hear my name called out, so it was all a bit of a shock,” Davies said. “I was watching the live stream with my partner … when I heard my name I went a bit crazy at first and then just sort of shut down. Once the real-ness of it all started to sink in, I started to contemplate what it all means.

Seddon’s grit delivers

Sports shorts VSDCA

A composed batting performance has delivered Yarraville its first win of the sub-district south-west first XI season, as it took the points over Moorabbin on Saturday. Josh Turner (52) and Lucas Nikoloski (56) were the standouts for the home side as it finished its 45 overs on 9-242, before two early wickets helped slow the Moorabbin chase. Nathan Allen (3-36) and Matthew Grose (2-40) were the pick of the bowlers as Yarraville restricted the visitors to 8-207 at the close of play.

By Ewen McRae Seddon staged fightbacks with bat and ball to grab its first win of the Victorian Turf Cricket Association season on Saturday. Taking on Keilor in the senior division, Seddon had Duleeka Thisakuttige and Liam Braithwaite to thank for giving it a competitive total to bowl at, before the bowlers came alive late in the day to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. Keilor needed just seven runs from the final nine balls of the innings, and had two wickets in hand, but botched the closing stages. Shafraz Mohamed, who had hit two beautiful boundaries to bring Keilor within sight of victory, was caught trying to find the fence in the penultimate over, before wicketkeeper Chetan Arjun was bowled by Damith Priyadarshana with three balls to spare and just five runs needed for the win. Earlier, Keilor took control of the contest with three early wickets, as Arkii Van Wills (0), Priyadarshana (12) and Ben Speake (1) all fell cheaply to have the visitors in early trouble at 3-17. From there, Thisakuttige and Braithwaite were able to stabilise the innings, their 129-run stand giving Seddon a defendable total. Braithwaite looked right at home when he got to the crease, with his 70 coming off just 79 balls, while Thisakuttige anchored the remainder of the innings to be unbeaten on 85. In reply, Keilor lost Luke Delbridge for a duck early when Chris Sole disturbed the timber, but it was able to settle the innings with a succession of handy partnerships. Nathan Beever (41), Stavris (14) and Upal Bandara (22) all got good starts, but it was Kaushal Lokuarachchi who looked like giving the hosts the win, his whirlwind 59 coming off just 48 balls. Sole (2-33) got the vital wicket of Lokuarachchi, while Hayden Dryiski (3-40) was crucial through the middle and later part of the innings before the late drama. Elsewhere, Spotswood proved far too strong with both bat and ball for reigning premier Yarraville Club, coming away with a 131-run win. Batting first, Spotswood recovered from 2-23 to stage a middle-order fightback on the back of 52 from Mac Short. With four other batsmen scoring between 20 and 35, the home side hit 8-189 from its 40 overs. That would prove to be more than enough, as the new ball pairing of Dan Schuppan (5-24) and captain Allan Wise (4-10) ripped the Yarraville Club batting order to shreds. Just two of the premier’s batsmen made it to double figures as Spotswood wrapped up the innings for just 58 in 26 overs. The win sees Spotswood second on the table, while Yarraville Club is winless through the first two rounds and will look to get its season rolling against Keilor, which is also without a win.

Premier Cricket

Footscray struggled to contain a rampant Fitzroy Doncaster batting line-up on Saturday. With too much to chase, Footscray fell to its third loss of the Premier Cricket season. Travelling to Schramms Reserve, Footscray’s bowlers were punished as the Lions had three players score quick 50s, including a belligerent 64 off 32 balls from Trent Lawford, as the home side made 8-256. Lucas Dredge was best with the ball with 3-69. In reply, the Dogs got good starts from Dean Russ (46) and Matthew Underwood (47), but the middle order couldn’t capitalise. Tallan Wright impressed late with 64 not out off 57 balls, but the Dogs were bowled out for 202 in the 41st over.

Bowls

Altona is still hunting for its first win of the Premier Bowls season, while Yarraville Footscray scored an impressive win over the previously unbeaten Deer Park on Saturday. Altona hosted fellow winless side Bundoora RSL, but while they split the rinks, the side fell agonisingly short of a breakthrough win as it lost by a single shot, 81 (14)-80 (4). The reigning premier is anchored to bottom spot, the only side without a win. Yarraville Footscray dominated Deer Park, with three big rink wins resulting in a commanding 98 (17)-59 (1) victory.

Baseball

Footscray’s women’s baseball side is licking its wounds after a huge loss to Springvale at the weekend. Footscray grabbed two runs in the opening inning, before the Springvale batters ran in 14 runs in the first inning, another 11 in the second and six more in the fifth to run away with a 31-2 win.

Williamstown bursting with confidence Williamstown kept its perfect start to the Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association season going at the weekend, dominating with bat and ball to claim the win against Altona. Hosting its western division rivals, Williamstown wasted little time in chasing down Altona’s 113, sending a message to the competition in reaching the target in just 18 overs to snare win number two for the summer. Williamstown captain Brent McMinn said it was just about the perfect all-round game. “It was a very dominant performance from us, which was good to see,” McMinn said. “The bowling was really well set up by our two openers Jarrod Flood-Bauce and Daniel Popa, they set the tone for the day and everyone else chipped in. And then with the bat we set ourselves the challenge of finishing it in 20 overs and got there in 18, so it was just a really good, solid win by us.”

While Altona won the toss and took first use of a wicket made for run scoring, it was the home bowlers who made the early inroads. Greg Sheehan (1) was trapped in front by Flood-Bauce early, and a steady run of wickets followed as the next three visiting batsmen contributed just 13 runs. David Kinsella tried hard against the new ball on his way to 30, and Daniel Mackenzie (30) helped push the total into triple figures late in the innings, but the home bowlers all chipped in to run through the rest of the order. Popa (2-14 off nine overs) and Flood-Bauce (2-15 off seven) did the damage early, but it was a team effort to set up the small chase. In reply, the Williamstown batting order flexed its muscle to make short work of the chase. James Cook (22 off 18 balls), Matthew Dervan (22 not out) and Mitchell Streiff (42 not out off 33 balls) were brutal against the young Altona

attack, while Shannon Clarke (2-33) was the pick of the Altona attack. Williamstown now turns its sights to Brighton, and it’s biggest test of the season to date. “Everyone’s in pretty good form, so everyone’s set up well for this next test,” McMinn said. “Our batters are all hitting the ball well, and the bowlers did the job for us this week, so I’m backing us in all the way against Brighton and we’re full of confidence at the moment.” Ewen McRae
