Get the drill, and dance Melton’s only DrillDance club is placing the city on the dance landscape with back-to-back championship wins.

The club’s teams returned from the Australian DrillDance championships in Bendigo last weekend with more success.

The senior team, Electrikaires, reclaimed the title of Australian thematic dance champions and scored second place for its thematic drill routine.

The under-17s team, Electrik Force, also scored a second-placing in the technical drill leg of the championships.

Senior coach Billie Harrip said she was “stoked” with the club’s wins and said they were a testament to the members’ dedication and teamwork.

DrillDance teams perform fun and challenging routines in categories such as dance, prop and drill-team. Teams choose their own costumes, routines and music for performances.

Ms Harrip, a coach of about 20 years, said it was the sport’s uniqueness and beautiful costumes that initially attracted her. The club has 27 students, including one of only four males competing in Victoria. Ms Harrip says the club is now recruiting for under-eight-year-olds and masters (over 30).

School call to keep CaLM

By Yasemin Talat Some of Melton’s most vulnerable young people could find themselves without an education, with their school facing an uncertain future.

The Community and Learning Melton school (CaLM school), which is home to 45 secondary school-aged students seeking an alternative learning system, could close its doors at the end of the year.

The school is crammed into two rooms at Victoria University’s Melton campus but, with the university due to close, the CaLM school will need a new home.

CaLM co-ordinator Susan Gill said the school now had nowhere to go.

“We’re trying to find a space, but the problem is there are no public spaces here,” Ms Gill said.

“We need a big injection of funds, really, for a suitable venue.

“A lot of these kids probably wouldn’t be in school if we weren’t here.”

The school takes in students who don’t fit into mainstream education and who are otherwise likely to drop out.

“There’s a real need for the program,” Ms Gill said. “We could expand rather than not be here at all. We’ve got a number of kids here who wouldn’t be in school if they weren’t with us.”

Ms Gill said the program was important for the community in many ways and its closure would be a great loss.

CaLM school runs a program developed and funded by the network of secondary colleges, including Melton Secondary College.

“We have small classes. We know our kids individually; they are on individual working plans and we also work very closely with their families,” Ms Gill said. “They have a sense of connectedness here and a sense of belonging.”

Melton Secondary College principal David Reynolds said the network schools were exploring alternative sites.

“We have no clear answer as yet,” Mr Reynolds said, adding that the closure of the program was “absolutely not” the option the schools wanted to take.

“The preferred option is that the school will

remain open and have access to permanent and suitable facilities to run this program,” Mr Reynolds said. “It’s vital that the school stays open and continues to provide the program it does.”

Melton council’s economic development and advocacy manager, Michael Tudball, said the council was working closely with all parties involved to advocate for the CaLM school to remain at its present site. He said other potential sites were also being explored.

“The CaLM school is an extremely valuable program and we want to see it remain as an option available to young people in our community into the future,” Mr Tudball said.

Another is a road link between Maddingley over the river to Halletts Way, part of one of the council’s largest infrastructure projects.

The Darley sports ground change rooms will be upgraded and road rehabilitation works will be undertaken throughout the shire, including at Navigators, Darley, Mt Egerton, Lal Lal, Ballan and Gordon.

Mr Croxford said the capital works would help tackle some of the shire’s biggest problems, including traffic congestion and the need for

Moorabool council is set to deliver $15.3 million in capital works as part of its proposed 2015-16 budget.

New projects will be funded from part of a proposed five per cent rate increase.

Moorabool council chief executive Rob Croxford says capital works are the draft budget highlight with much-needed infrastructure being targeted.

“Some of the big projects include the Darley early-years hub, which will provide extra three and four-year-old kindergarten places

more sports and recreational facilities. The draft 2015-16 budget also foreshadows new initiatives and services, including ongoing asset maintenance and an increase in resources for maternal and child health.

Mr Croxford said ratepayers could expect a 2.25 per cent drop in their garbage charges to offset the impact of the forecast rate rise.

“With a reduction in some of our garbage costs, the average overall rate increase comes out at about 4.1 per cent,” he said.

The council foreshadows increasing borrowings by $4.48 million in the next financial year. Mr Croxford said that was

essential to deliver capital works, despite the heightened financial exposure.

“We are at a point now that our debt repayments trail off fairly quickly,” Mr Croxford said. “The council is comfortable that it’s not putting us into any financial risk.”

He said the council faced uncertain times with a rates cap limited to the consumer price index coming into effect next year, and the state government-imposed cap would have a “huge effect”. Public feedback on Moorabool’s draft budget closes May 25.

Thermal lift for firemen is, so we can put it out,” Mr Salathiel said. “If we were just looking at it [a fire] we might not know it’s … smouldering underneath.

“Or you might think you’ve put the whole grass fire out but it’s still burning underneath – it will help detect those hot spots.”

The camera has already been put to good use.

“The day we got the unit we had a house fire, and [using the unit] we were able to focus on the areas that still needed a bit more water,” Mr Salathiel said.

A thermal imaging camera will help Bacchus Marsh firefighters better detect fires and hot spots.

The Baccus Marsh Fire Brigade recently took possession of the camera, which was previously used in the Hazelwood coal mine fire.

Fourth Lieutenant Dale Salathiel said the brigade was thankful to have received its own camera as it meant it no longer had to depend on other brigades.

“It’s important to help better distinguish fires as well as stopping things from igniting later on,” Mr Salathiel said.

Firefighters underwent a two-day training course to learn the ins and outs of the device last week.

Rental crisis hits women hard

By Yasemin Talat Melton is the only suburb in Melbourne that women fleeing violence can afford, new data shows.

The Council to Homeless Persons has compared the average weekly female wage for Victoria with median weekly rents by suburb.

It found that, on the average wage of $842 per week (including both part-time and full-time workers), Melton is the only suburb where a woman can rent a two-bedroom home and not be in housing stress, meaning

more than 30 per cent of income goes on housing.

With a median weekly rent of $245 for a two-bedroom house, Melton was a cheaper alternative to neighbouring suburbs, including Werribee, St Albans and Sunshine, which have median rents of between $270 and $280 a week. The median weekly rent for a two-bed apartment at Melton is $235 compared to $260 at Sunshine.

James Bennett, of the Tenants Union of Victoria, said the lack of affordable housing and low vacancy rates highlighted the dire prospects faced by women experiencing

homelessness and domestic violence. “The lack of affordable housing is an ongoing problem and causes stress for many tenants in the private rental market,” Mr Bennett said. “There are around 300,000 low-income rental households in Victoria. Almost half of those are estimated to be in rental stress, where they are paying more than 30 per

cent of their income on housing costs,” he said. “Combined with a low vacancy rate of about three per cent, it does create an environment where women fleeing from violent situations face the very real prospect of homelessness.”

The data looks at working women and, with about two-thirds of those experiencing family violence holding down jobs, women who are only on income support find it much more difficult to cope, the council study found.

It’s no snap decision It has been a long time since Brenton Spiteri has had a professional portrait taken with his mum, but that is set to change.

This month, the Caroline Springs photographer is taking part in National Family Portrait Month, which aims to get families in front of cameras to raise money for charity and create lasting memories.

As well as posing with his mum, Mr Spiteri will donate his talent and time to help raise $20,000 for the National Breast Cancer Foundation.

He said there was no better time for people to take portraits with their mum than in the lead-up to Mother’s Day. “Most people I speak to tend to never find the time to book in a family portrait – we’re hoping this gives them a reason. And it’s for a good cause … everyone knows of someone who has had, or been affected by, breast cancer.”

Mr Spiteri said people often neglected the importance of family portraits until it was too late.

“Sometimes people don’t get photographs until something happens.”

He said photographs captured precious moments and milestones in people’s life.

“Every family has a journey that should be documented.”

The National Family Portrait Month sessions cost $65, all of which will be donated to the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Additional photographs can be purchased for extra cost.

A mum’s story, blogged

By Yasemin Talat This Sunday, Stephanie Davidson will celebrate her first Mother’s Day with son William.

The Bacchus Marsh mother is especially excited because she has overcome a challenging first year of motherhood since William was born the day after Mother’s Day last year.

This year, Stephanie will celebrate motherhood with William’s grandmothers and great grandmothers, reflecting on the whirlwind year she’s had as a new mum.

In September last year, Stephanie was diagnosed with postnatal depression and anxiety. She had tried very hard to breastfeed William, to no avail.

“For me, that was really hard because I wanted to feed him,” Stephanie said. “I felt like everyone else was breastfeeding except me.”

The pressure to breastfeed, and the expectation that she should, led Stephanie to feel she had failed as a mother.

And although she felt things weren’t right, Stephanie said she kept her feelings to her self.

It was at a visit to the doctor for William that she sought advice.

She said even then it was hard to speak about herself and hard for those around her to understand.

“Although it looked like I had it all together and it looked fine, it really wasn’t,” she said.

“There is that stigma that mental health isn’t real, but one in five new mums and one in nine new dads will have postnatal depression – it’s a real thing,” she said.

“Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t there.”

In the past six months Stephanie’s mental

health has improved and she has opened up about her experiences.

She created a blog, Trays of Slice, where she documents the good and bad days and the ways she deals with her depression.

Before the blog, it was making trays of dessert slices that kept her occupied, hence

the name. Her advice to others is to speak out about how they’re feeling, whether to a doctor, friend or partner. “The first time I spoke to my GP I felt so much better,” she said. “There is no shame in mental health.”

Stephanie’s blog Trays of Slice is at www. traysofslice.wordpress.com

Thieves steal mobility scooter A Melton West woman is pleading with the thieves who stole her motorised scooter to “do the right thing” and bring it back.

Linda, who has multiple sclerosis, said the theft left her “absolutely gobsmacked” as well as housebound.

“I can walk a little way with my walker but I get very fatigued so [the scooter] is my main source of transport,” the 57-year-old said. “My scooter is my best friend.”

Melton police believe the thieves entered the backyard of Linda’s Hilton Way home between 5.30pm on Friday and 12.30pm on Saturday to steal her $4000 scooter.

“I had thought I was quite secure in my home environment, but not any more.”

Senior Constable Gareth Gutierrez said thieves usually took stolen scooters for a joyride before dumping them.

“This kind of theft is particularly despicable as the offenders have blatantly targeted this woman,” he said.

“People don’t just have motorised scooters lying around. It’s obvious that anyone who has one needs it – to take that from someone is really low.”

The four-wheel blue Invacare Pegasus scooter has a Geelong Cats sticker on the front and had a blue and white umbrella, a battery charger, black rain cape and walking stick on board.

Tickled pink to help mums Burnside Heights Football Club turns pink this weekend in support of junior football’s biggest backers – footy mums.

In sync with Mother’s Day, the charity sports weekend will raise money for the Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA).

Club president Justin Peagram said the BCNA was a worthy cause.

“The biggest drive for starting the football club was mums,” Mr Peagram said. “Mums are so important to junior footy; breast cancer is a disease that takes some mums from us.”

During the weekend senior players will don pink socks and juniors will wear pink arm bands. All matches will be played with pink footballs.

“Every one of the players have a mum, sister,

girlfriend, wife or people in their lives that can be affected by breast cancer,” Mr Peagram said.

He wants the pink accessories to send a visual message to help raise awareness, and funds, for breast cancer research and treatments.

The club has hosted the pink sports weekend for the past four years and this year aims to raise $3000 for BCNA. Mr Peagram hoped the club’s contribution could help women battling breast cancer by finding a cure.

On Saturday, high tea will be served in the clubrooms from 1.30pm to 3.30pm. Tickets are $35 and include nibbles, champagne, tea and coffee, as well as a Pink Lady pin.

Reservations: 0432 516 526.

Melton and Bellarine police have helped reunite a woman with stolen property that belonged to her late father, a former Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner. The victim discovered a number of items, including a heritage edition Constable T Bear. being sold online. She alerted Bellarine police, who tracked the “seller” to Caroline Springs. Bellarine police and Melton Crime Investigation Unit officers arrested and charged a 20-year-old Caroline Springs man on April 23. He will appear at Sunshine Magistrates Court at a later date.

More armed robberies

Three armed offenders held up the McDonald’s restaurant on the corner of Ballarat and Robinsons Road in Ravenhall last Wednesday armed with knives and other tools. Police believe the incident is linked to other armed robberies across Melbourne in recent weeks. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

DYLAN DI MARTINO

Global tradesman Dylan Di Martino may just be Australia’s best apprentice plumber.

The 21 year-old Hillside resident has been a fierce competitor in the WorldSkills competition – known as the Olympics of vocational training.

WorldSkills showcases the talent of top apprentices and trainees in about 50 categories, ranging from hairdressing to plumbing.

Dylan competed in a regional competition about three years ago, and won. He then progressed to the nationals where he won gold.

He has just returned from the Oceania titles in New Zealand where he scored silver.

Dylan will now join Australia’s team, the Skillaroos, on the world stage in August for International WorldSkills in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

“It’s getting pretty exciting,” Dylan said.

“Once the international competition is done, I will get my world ranking.”

The young man already is hoping to score gold again. The committed apprentice is going to school, working and getting in lots of practice in the lead-up to the international competition. “[The competition] teaches you to work so much quicker and more efficiently,” he said.

The fourth year apprentice is studying at Victoria University’s Sunshine campus. For his day job, he works alongside his dad and brother in the family plumbing business. “[WorldSkills] is not the kind of thing you would go in to with half an effort,” he said.

“You’ve got to give it your all and give it the best you can.”

NEWS MELTON.STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

By Yasemin Talat The mother of Sarah Cafferkey has said a formal inquest into her daughter’s murder may finally give her the answers she needs.

Victoria’s state coroner will investigate the murder of Ms Cafferkey in an inquest that includes looking at the roles others played in helping Steven Hunter dispose of the young woman’s body.

Judge Ian Gray told the Coroners Court on Tuesday he would hold a formal inquest into Ms Cafferkey’s November 2012 death, saying the investigation will also examine whether Hunter should have been monitored more closely while on parole.

Ms Cafferkey’s mother, Noelle Dickson, said a lot still needed to be followed up after her daughter’s death and she hoped the inquest would provide her with the answers she needed.

She said she wanted all those involved to be held accountable for their actions so that she can move forward.

“For me it’s important because it’s unfinished business,” Ms Dickson said. “The important part is that all areas are held accountable for their actions – Victoria Police, Corrections Victoria, the parole board and the others involved. That’s what I need to be able to move forward.”

Ms Dickson said it was important for the whole community to have the parole system closely scrutinised.

“Anything to improve the justice system, to protect the community, is of utmost importance,” she said, adding she believed

there was a lot of evidence that showed other people were involved.

Ms Dickson said police hadn’t followed up investigations into people who were questioned and she believed those people should be charged .

Hunter attacked and killed Ms Cafferkey, 22, with a hammer and knife in his Bacchus Marsh unit on November 10, 2012. Her body was discovered in a wheelie bin outside a Point Cook home seven days later.

‘‘

Anything to improve the justice system, to protect the - Noelle Dickson community

’’

Hunter was sentenced to life without parole in 2013. He had a long criminal history – including a stint in prison for the 1986 murder of colleague Jacqueline Matthews – and had completed a period of parole 11 days before he attacked Ms Cafferkey.

Previous court hearings have heard it was unclear whether Ms Cafferkey knew Hunter had been jailed for murder.

Judge Gray said the inquest would focus on both the police investigation into the disposal of the body and Hunter’s period of parole following completion of his jail term for assaulting a man and holding him hostage.

The inquest is scheduled for three days from July 29. Crime Stoppers: 1800 333 000 or www. crimestoppersvic.com.au - with The Age

Mother seeks parole overhaul

Study dreams on track Bacchus Marsh College student Joshua Coulson (pictured) hopes to one day study agriculture.

He was given help to reach that goal with a VicRoads Indigenous Secondary Scholarship.

The year 10 student was recently awarded the scholarship, which is part of the VicRoads Indigenous Employment Program.

The program provides financial assistance, practical support and aims to increase training and working opportunities for indigenous young people in Victoria.

Joshua will be provided $800 towards his studies this year, a further $1200 next year and $1600 in year 12.

Bacchus Marsh College Koorie support co-ordinator Julie Hamilton said Joshua was

proud of his Koorie heritage. She said he was engaged in the school and wider community, and was committed to extracurricular activities. In particular he was a highly valued member of the college’s senior team for the RACV Energy Breakthrough, an annual state event where students build human-powered and hybrid vehicles to race.

“We are all very proud of him,” Ms Hamilton said.

Joshua, too, is proud of his achievement.

“I am very happy and surprised to receive the scholarship as there was only four of these given out across Victoria,” he said.

Professionally landscaped gardens surrounding this house are indicators of the presentation standards found inside, where everything is ready to welcome new owners.

There are three good-sized bedrooms, two with mirrored wardrobes. The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite. Along with a tiled family-meals area, there’s an open carpeted rumpus room which can also serve as a home theatre space. The kitchen has a sizeable breakfast bench, a pantry cupboard, tiled splashback and 900mm underbench oven and gas cooktop. A covered deck at the back looks out to manicured lawn and perimeter planting ready to be added to. Ducted heating, evaporative cooling, surveillance camera, alarm, front-door security monitor and a double garage with internal access are other features.

On about 551 square metres, this house will be of particular interest to first-home buyers and those looking to downsize. Polished floorboards and large windows, coupled with a muted colour palette, create a feeling of lightness in the large family-meals area. This zone wraps snugly around the kitchen with breakfast bar, underbench oven and gas cooktop.

All three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes. The-low maintenance backyard includes a paved entertainment area and a garden shed. The garage with rear access provides secure parking for one vehicle, with additional off-street parking on the long driveway. Extras include ducted heating and a split-system. Golfers should enjoy the proximity to Bacchus Marsh West Golf Club – within easy walking distance. It’s also only a short drive to Peppertree Park, shops and Bacchus Marsh train station.

From the low-upkeep greenery of the front yard to the immaculately presented backyard with outdoor entertainment area, garden shed, and landscaped gardens, this property exudes a certain style. The interior is stylistically chic with a contrasting black, white and red colour palette throughout, tying the decor flow together. The kitchen is finished with black-and-white checquered flooring, red glass splashback, black benchtops, dishwasher, stainless-steel cooker and canopy rangehood. This style continues into the adjoining family-meals area, and in the main bathroom down the hall. Both the separate lounge room and the two bedrooms are carpeted, and have large windows providing plenty of natural light. With a remote-controlled single garage, the property is just a short walk from Melton train station, shops, restaurants and Toolern Creek bike trail.

On about 689 square metres, this place provides a great opportunity to renovate or redevelop, subject to council approval. With large windows, high ceilings and expansive floor plan providing a great starting point, the house also has air-conditioning, split-system and ceiling fans. The kitchen has a stainless-steel wall oven, gas cooktop and fixed rangehood. The carpeted family-meals area and lounge room are located nearby. A sunroom at the rear provides additional living space in which to sit and relax. Two of the three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, with all three sharing a bathroom. A covered entertainment area and garden shed complete the low-maintenance backyard. Virtually adjacent to Woodgrove Shopping Centre, with Melton train station and the Western Freeway access a short drive away, the location alone should have house-hunters vying for a look.

This is a smashing property, hard to beat in terms of a solidly built residence with genuinely timeless characteristics, sitting on a beautifully landscaped block of about 6300 square metres. The house has great internal flow and is beautifully geared towards entertainment and relaxation, inside and out – and some fine architectural features stamp it with class that will last.

Entry is into a tiled foyer, to the right of which timber bifold doors open to a carpeted study. These doors, along with every bit of internal woodwork, have been limewashed to great effect. Opposite the study there’s a powder room and next door is the main bedroom, with walk-in

wardrobe and a big en suite, with a spa set against glass bricks, and a limed-timber vanity unit with twin basins.

Next is the lounge-dining room where clerestory windows light the space below a timber-lined pitched ceiling, and a wood storage nook is set in the brick chimney, giving this space a great ambience.

Elegant drapes under fabric pelmets add a hint of elegance, and a granite-topped wet bar makes the room a great winter retreat.

A leadlight-paned door then opens to a long hallway, ranged along which are four bedrooms (wardrobes and ceiling fans), a laundry with workbench, and main bathroom with limed-timber vanity unit.

Next to a tiled meals area and carpeted family room with an exposed brick wall and Masport gas log fire, the kitchen has limed-timber cupboards topped with granite, a square island bench, mocha-toned glass splashback, four-door pantry, dishwasher and a Lofra 900mm stainless-steel cooker under steel/glass rangehood. The sink is set in a wide bay, taking in views of the outdoor room.

A wide entry and a step down from the family room ushers in the large, tiled entertainment room, with a big bay window and a granite-topped wet bar. This, and the meals zone, link with a huge gabled pergola above brick paving; this is fully enclosed, with multiple glass sliders to

outdoors. Front and back yards are a treat, with mature exotics, fruit trees, arbors and densely planted garden beds joining sweeping lawn areas.

A timber gazebo and a timber arched bridge over an ornamental waterway punctuate the landscape and a weatherboard, cottage-look storage shed with roller door access could be many things, including a spot to keep gear for the adjoining grass tennis court.

Ducted heating, split-system, two water tanks (one with pump), irrigation system, a double carport and remote-controlled extended double garage are other keynotes.

WINE

Corkscrew’s fate still not sealed

By Ben Thomas

‘‘

It was terrific and saved a lot of money

’’

- Peter Cowley

When was the last time you used a corkscrew?

Do you still own one? I was given two last week

by French winemakers.

The first winemaker looked a little sheepish as he handed over the branded, promotional tool, knowing the bulk of wine we drink in Australia is sealed with a screw cap.

The second had my name printed on it – an aid, I presume, to ensure it makes its way back to me after a boozy picnic with friends.

The corkscrew rarely makes an appearance at tastings these days.

Despite the screw cap’s wide adoption in Australia, debate still rages as to what makes the best closure for a bottle of wine – especially between winemakers.

There are three major types of seals used on wine bottles: the screw cap, natural cork and an agglomerate cork made of tiny bits of cork that are glued and molded together.

It’s known as the Diam, after the company that makes it.

There are two main issues with corks that led to the development of alternatives. Cork taint, caused by the chemical 2,4,6-Trichloroanisole (TCA), gives wine a wet cardboard or musty smell and is so potent even the tiniest trace can be sensed by the human nose. About 5 per cent of all bottles sealed under cork are affected by TCA. The other issue is the amount of oxygen the cork lets in. The bark from the cork tree, which is grown in huge forests on the Iberian Peninsula, lets small amounts of air pass through it. In itself, this is a good thing because a little oxygen helps wine age and develop in the bottle. But,

because cork is a natural product, the amount that passes through isn’t consistent.

There’s a saying that “there aren’t great wines, just great bottles” and I’ve been at tastings that prove the point beautifully.

Few disagree that screw caps are a high-quality, consistent seal that retains freshness. But many winemakers feel corks are the perfect seals for the style of wine they’re trying to make.

Te Mata winemaker Peter Cowley uses screw caps, cork and Diam for his wines and we’ve spoken about the merits of all over the years. Te Mata, in New Zealand’s Hawkes Bay, trialled all three seals on its high-end wines.

“After those trials were about three years old, when we were trying them, we were seeing a difference in the wines,” Cowley says.

“Reds move on a bit more after three or four or five years; there’s more evolved aromas and flavours. The tannins are softer and more evenly straight on the palette. “[With screw caps] I find the same wine a bit shorter and a little bit harder. The tannin seems to be on the end of the line a little bit.”

But Cowley also saw positives in screw caps: “The wine’s freshness – a sweet, fruit thing that is terrific.”

Te Mata chose to use screw caps on some of its cheaper wines.

Crowley uses Diam corks on his top whites, which are fermented and matured in oak barrels to add extra complexity to the wines.

Screw caps, he found, amplified some of the characters in these wines.

“We were picking up a flinty, tonicky note on those wines in the whites, which is kind of OK. [As drinkers] we’re all getting used to that character a bit, but we think it’s a bit of a negative.”

59 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ MAY 5, 2015

SPORT Cup tour worth more than gold for young Rebels pair He may be only young, but that hasn’t stopped rugby union rising star Elijah Tuigamala clocking up some serious travel miles.

Last year, the then-14-year-old toured New Zealand with the Melbourne Rebels’ under-14 side, competing against the likes of Auckland, Waikato and Bay of Plenty.

Now 15, Tuigamala recently returned from more travel, this time throughout Australia with the Victorian under-15 Rebels for the national Gold Cup. Tuigamala was joined in the team by his club teammate, Tipene Broughton-Thompson.

Together, the Melton boys helped the Rebels win their first five matches and progress through to the competition’s semi-final against the ACT Brumbies.

It was there their run came to an end with the Brumbies coming out on top in Canberra.

The boys’ club coach Ivala Tuigamala – Elijah’s father – said it had been a fantastic experience for the pair.

“These guys got to mingle with some of the senior Rebels players from the Super Rugby games,” he said.

“It’s really good what they’re doing at the

moment. Hopefully, it can continue for a long time.

“It’s only in its second year this Gold Cup tournament. Our under-15s from last year won it, but unfortunately they just came up short this time.”

Among highlights of the tournament was a huge upset victory by the Rebels against one of the cup favourites.

Taking on Sydney West, the Rebels came out on top 52-10, signalling their intentions for the rest of the tournament.

From there, the team went on a three-match tour of Sydney, collecting three wins along the way.

Tuigamala and Broughton-Thompson will now turn their attention to trying to qualify for the under 17 gold cup next year.

“Towards the end of the year they’ll begin trials for the under-17s,” Ivala Tuigamala said.

“Because the boys turn 15 this year they will not be eligible to play under-15s so they’ll have to play under-17s. It is hard to make it as a bottom-age player but we will see how they go.”

Young Mustangs click

By Liam Twomey Signs of a brighter future have lit the horizon for the Melton Hockey Club through the early stages of the state league 3 season.

The club’s men’s side began its campaign knowing the focus would be on rebuilding with a young squad set to take the field in 2015.

But what they have lacked in experience they’ve more than made up for in enthusiasm.

The Mustangs collected their first win of the season in round one against OHA before competitive performances against Box Hill Whitehorse and St Bernards.

Melton coach Glenn Lawrence is rapt with the season’s start.

“The first game was a win and it really wasn’t what I was expecting off the bat.

“But we have shown we can match it and I think we will match it with at least half the competition.

“I don’t think it will be a disappointing season. I think the players will continue to develop with the more pressure that gets put on them.

“Hopefully next season we’re a better side for it.”

After three rounds, Melton is fifth on the ladder.

In another opportunity to grab a win, the Mustangs will take on the seventh-placed Swinburne this weekend.

Lawrence says his team’s aim over the next month will be to react better against attacking players.

“I think we’ve been exposed a little bit with the speed of how we move the ball and how we handle the pressure of an experienced player who’s tackling,” he said.

“We’re going to look at how we are holding the ball, riding the attack and trying to not panic.

“We will work on that over the next couple of weeks and try to develop a little bit more resilience to the attacking player.

“We’ll try and get the ball moving quicker, which will bring us up to the level that we’re expected to be at in this competition.”

John Kovarik prepares to send Melton forward against St Bernards at the weekend.

RDFL squad rich with Melton stars Premiership favourite Diggers Rest has been rewarded for a strong start to the season with five of its players named in the Riddell District Football League interleague squad.

Brett Caton, Stuart Clarke, Lenny Clark, John Ryan and Jason Williams were all selected in the initial squad.

The RDFL will take on the Nepean Football League later this month.

Senior interleague coach Matt Power was rapt with the quality and depth of his assembled squad.

“We’ve got several experienced interleague players in the squad plus some exciting new additions to the league, with a good mix of experience and youth,” he said.

“We feel like we’ve been able to put together a strong squad of committed players, which we know we’ll need against a strong Nepean Football League side.

“We’ll also be watching more games over the weekend of round three to identify any players we may have missed who will suit our squad.”

Of the other Melton-based RDFL teams, Melton Centrals and Rockbank each had three players named in the squad. Peter Corridig, Rex Hickman and Andrew Lorimer will represent Centrals, while Jake Armistead, Leigh Sobotnicki and Jack Sims are from the Rams.

The Sunbury Kangaroos were the best-represented RDFL club, with nine players named in the initial squad.

League operations manager Toby Boyle added that the competition for spots had been impressive.

“After two rounds of local football, a large number of players across all clubs have put their hands up to be part of the initial squad which will start training on May 13.

“We’re really excited about the challenge ahead of us against a league ranked in the top 15 in the state and we can’t wait for May 23 to show the football world how strong our league is.”

Big guns to be turned on Bloods

By Liam Twomey A season-defining three weeks looms for Ballarat Football League club Melton.

A bye last week was poor preparation as the Bloods take on top-six contenders Lake Wendouree, Sunbury and Ballarat before the month is over.

Melton coach Brad Murphy knows his side will need to win at least two of these clashes to maintain its charge towards finals.

Anything less will put the Bloods’ September push in jeopardy.

“In the next three weeks, we’re playing against teams we’re going to be fighting with for the fourth, fifth and sixth spots on the ladder,” Murphy said.

“If we can get at least two of those as wins, we probably shore ourselves up to be in a good position to make the finals.

“If we can win three out of our next three then, obviously, that would be even better.”

Despite sitting second on the ladder, the Bloods have found it hard to gauge where they’re at during the season’s early stages.

In round one, Melton drew with cross-town rival Melton South, which had former AFL player Chris Tarrant making a one-off appearance in the Panthers’ forward line.

The following week, wet and windy conditions forced players to grind out a win against last year’s strugglers Sebastopol.

Melton has also had a number of injuries rob its line-up.

Prized off-season recruit James Mulligan is expected to miss another two matches with a hamstring injury.

In his absence, Cameron McCallum forced his way into the senior side after an eight-goal haul for the club’s reserves in round one.

“Cam has been good,” Murphy said.

Lions land champion allrounder

By Liam Twomey

Heath Pritchard stats

It may only be early in the off-season, but that hasn’t stopped Ballarat Cricket Association side Darley from pulling off a huge recruiting coup.

The Lions have signed Victorian Sub District star Heath Pritchard.

Pritchard will join the Lions after spending the past two seasons playing with Werribee, where he was outstanding with bat and ball.

He will captain the Lions in 2015-16.

Former Darley captain Matthew Cape said it was a huge signing.

“We’ve been chasing him for a while, but now the timing was right and he decided to come across,” Cape said.

“He will captain the side; I will hand over the reins there. And he will have a fair bit to do with the planning and the way we set up for next year.”

In his first season at Werribee, Pritchard scored 127 runs, took 47 wickets and played a huge role in the Tigers reaching the VSDCA grand final.

• Thirty-five first XI Premier games.

• 210 first XI sub-district games – 395 wickets and 3980 runs.

• Captain and representative player for VSDCA on five occasions.

• Twice in VSDCA team of the year.

• Twice runner-up in RM Hatch/Val Holten Medal for VSDCA champion player • Five times in top five of RM Hatch/Val Holten Medal • 10 times club champion at VSDCA level • Has captained and/or coached at VSDCA level for 10 seasons In his second season, he continued the form, smashing 293 runs and taking 30 wickets.

“To get someone of his calibre, I’d say he will be one of the best players in the

competition, if not the best player,” Cape said.

“He’s more than a good cricketer; he’s a great bloke and very professional.

“That is why we targeted him. The young blokes around the side will be able to learn a lot from him.”

Terry Moloney will continue in his role as head coach.

Cape says the club will be looking to add an overseas player to complete its 2015-16 playing stocks.

“We will probably have one more big signing,” Cape said.

“We’re not sure if we will add a Sri Lankan import or an English import.”

The changes should go a long way to helping Darley re-climb the ladder next season.

The Lions finished eighth in 2014-15, winning just three matches.

Heath Pritchard has signed with Darley for 2015-16. (Shawn Smits)

Rams butt up against Tigers’ brick wall

Sport shorts

A six-goal haul from Rockbank’s Lachlan Calder wasn’t enough to lift the Rams to a first win of the season.

Taking on Riddell District Football League rival Lancefield, Rockbank fell 26 points short, 15.11 (101) - 11.9 (75).

After trailing by 15 points at half-time, the Rams had clawed back into the contest after an improved third quarter in which they booted three goals and restricted Lancefield to just one.

That allowed the margin to be cut to three points at the final change.

But the Rams couldn’t sustain the pressure, which allowed the Tigers to regain control.

Lancefield forward Jonathon Kent proved the difference between the two sides, kicking six goals.

While Calder was the standout for Rockbank, he was well supported by Tim Senserrick and Leigh Sobotnicki, who were also among the club’s best players.

The Rams had six individual goal-kickers.

For Lancefield, Tevita Fonua was named best on ground.

Rockbank now has to wait two weeks before getting another chance to secure its first win.

The Rams will take on Broadford after this weekend’s bye.

After three rounds, Rockbank is 12th on the ladder, joining Kilmore and WoodendHesket as clubs still looking for their first win.

It’s been a better start to the season for the Rams’ reserves, just one game outside the top six.

Also in the RDFL, Diggers Rest got back on the winners’ list after a strong performance against Rupertswood.

The Burras recovered from a 12-point deficit at quarter-time to control the match from midway through the second term.

Brent Tuckey was impressive up forward for Diggers Rest, booting three goals.

He was well supported by Cameron McCabe, who also kicked three for the match and was dominant around the ground.

The 14.7 (91) - 7.12 (54) win is the Burras’ second of the year.

After three rounds, Diggers Rest is fourth on the RDFL ladder.

A goalless first quarter cost Melton Centrals any chance of victory in their Riddell District Football League clash with Riddell. Melton went down by 15.13 (103) - 9.6 (60). While the Centrals struggled to hit the scoreboard early, Riddell had no problems. The Bombers went on a rampage, booting seven goals in the opening quarter. And there was no letting up on the pressure, Riddell going on to kick another eight goals to seal the win.

Rockbank’s Bobby Johnson and Lancefield’s Michael Jones lock horns on Saturday.

RDFL

Ballarat Football League

Darley came off second-best in a battle of the Ballarat Football League’s undefeated teams. Taking on Redan, Darley was beaten 17.19 (121) - 13.8 (86). Shane Page stood up for the Devils, booting five goals to be judged his side’s best player.

Also impressive were Nathan Lyons and Dane Grenfell. After three rounds, Darley is fourth on the BFL ladder.

Elsewhere at the weekend, North Ballarat defeated Ballarat, East Point edged past Sunbury, and Bacchus Marsh got the better of Melton South.

Basketball

Melton was at its best in Big V basketball on Saturday night. The Thoroughbreds produced one of their most impressive performances of the season to smash Geelong 96-65.

After a tight first quarter, Melton took control in the second term, scoring 31 points and restricting Geelong to 11.

That handed them a 22-point lead at half-time and complete control of the match. Despite a better effort from Geelong after the main break, the damage was done and Melton was able to cruise to its win. Ivan Harris was a standout for the Thoroughbreds, scoring 24 points, with seven rebounds.

TAC Cup

The Western Jets continue to battle through the first half of the TAC Cup season, copping another big loss on Sunday. The Jets succumbed to Gippsland Power by a whopping 105 points. For the Jets, defender Liam Carter continued his strong season, working hard in the backline.

ADVERTORIAL

Home cooked goodness – home delivered FINDING the time to cook a nutritious meal every night can often be challenging. Then you need to have a seemingly endless list of ideas to keep the meals ‘new’ and not ‘boring’.

If you are finding it testing to come up with a healthy meal options every night, why not freshen up your ideas in the kitchen by calling on the team at Choice Fresh Meals?

For almost two decades, the Company has been keeping people well fed without the hassle of preparation, providing meals in our community to: • Seniors who need our meal service to allow them to remain independent • Busy professional people who don’t have the time to prepare nourishing food • People with an ongoing illness who are unable to cook for themselves.

A couple who have taken advantage of the service Choice Fresh Meals offers are Jack and Mavis Kennedy. Both 86, the couple decided to try Choice Fresh Meals after Mavis had heard good reports from friends.

“I belong to seniors and we began talking about meals one day and someone said they were using the company and we decided to give it a try”, Mavis said.

“The main reason we did it was that if anything happens to me, Jack would struggle to carry on with preparing food.

And the same goes for me if something happened to Jack. It’s a nice break from cooking every night and they have a large choice of 10006735-01-a11Mar©MMP meals…everyone has something they don’t like, so it is nice to have a good range to choose 14 SUNBURY & MACEDON RANGES WEEKLY from.”

“We have tried a few different services, but we are very happy with Choice Fresh Meals,” Mavis said.

“It’s conveniently delivered to us by Choice Fresh Meals who also now deliver fresh bread and milk and I look forward to not having to cook for the three nights… it’s a nice break.
