Sporting chance (Damjan Janevski)
Three years ago, Werribee’s Josh Howlett (pictured) wrote down an idea for a movie inspired by Australian Matthew Dellavedova’s move to the US to play college basketball. Now, with Dellavedova’s star on the rise thanks to his performance in the NBA finals, Howlett’s movie is gaining traction in the US with several studios expressing an interest in getting behind the project. ■ Full story: Pages 8-9
Homestead doors close By Charlene Macaulay Brides and grooms have been left in the lurch and the future of the Point Cook Homestead remains uncertain after its tenants went into liquidation earlier this month. The tenants entered voluntary liquidation on July 7 and the site has since been closed to the public. David Quin, of PCI Partners, liquidator of the company that previously operated the

Bride-to-be Jessie Anderson and fiance Nathan Mattia put a deposit down for their February, 2016, nuptials three weeks ago and haven’t been able to get in touch with management since. Ms Anderson said the couple did not even get a receipt to confirm payment and only found out that the Point Cook Homestead was shut down when her fiance went to the homestead and found it locked. “I’m heartbroken and frustrated all at once,”

Accordingly, I do not expect that any people who paid deposits will receive a refund.” Rocky Barca, district manager of Parks Victoria, which owns the homestead, said the organisation was assessing options for the

The Point Cook Homestead, which includes a functions centre and cafe, is steeped in history. It was originally the property of the Chirnside family and is considered to be one of Victoria’s earliest pastoral homestead complexes.

City silence ‘in public interest’ EXCLUSIVE By Laura Michell Wyndham council has refused to release documents revealing how Eagle Stadium got its name, claiming that it’s not in the public interest for this information to be released. Star Weekly submitted a freedom of information (FoI) request to the council asking for documents relating to the decision to rename the Werribee Sports and Fitness Centre as Eagle Stadium, the community consultation process that was used, and alternative names that were considered.
Last week, the council’s freedom of information officer Joy Painter knocked back the request. Ms Painter said releasing the information would be “contrary to the public interest” because it showed possible names that were considered, but not adopted, by the council. She said this was “likely to lead to inaccurate assumptions and promote divisive debate in the community”. Ms Painter ruled that the documents contained information obtained voluntarily from the community and she was concerned their release would discourage people from participating in future community consultation processes.
She also had concerns about the release of information that would identify councillors, staff or consultants who had provided the council with an opinion on the subject. “There has been considerable community discussion in relation to the naming of Eagle Stadium, which appears to be primarily concerned with the process adopted by the council to assist in making a decision on the new name,” Ms Painter said. “If released, the documents would be likely to reduce open and robust deliberation in council’s decision-making processes.” ‘Not Eagle Stadium’ founder Ian Dooley said his group had also had its FoI request knocked

back. “The facility is used by the community. How the information about how they named this $47 million facility is not in the public interest is very confusing,” he said. Hoppers Crossing Basketball Club president Mario Costa said the organisation had had its FoI request knocked back also. It is considering appealing the decision. Mr Costa said he understood the Werribee Devils’ objection to the stadium’s name, given that the Eagles nickname was used by other representative basketball clubs. “We have 32 teams this season, and we weren’t consulted in regards to the name,” he said, saying the consultation was the issue.
Werribee worst fare evaders
Werribee Mercy Hospital coped with a birthing overload last week as 15 babies were born in 24 hours – triple the usual number of daily births. Eight girls and seven boys were born at the hospital last Wednesday, including five babies born within 45 minutes from 5am to 5.45am. To add to the drama, it was obstetrician Berna Venter’s first day at the hospital after moving from Darwin. Ms Venter said, on average, about five babies were born at Werribee Mercy each day. “It was a little overwhelming, but the team worked well together and knew what they were doing,” she said. “Every patient deserves all the care they need, and we had to borrow one or two midwives from other wards.” Ms Venter said although it was extremely unusual for so many babies to be born at Werribee Mercy on the same day, it was likely to become a more regular occurrence as the hospital aimed to increase its number of births by 20 per cent this financial year. Werribee Mercy delivered 3144 babies in 2014-15, a record for the hospital. The number was up from 2739 births in 2013-14 and a staggering 1392 more than 10 years ago. From existing data, it’s anticipated about 74 babies will be born each week at Werribee Mercy this financial year, meaning almost 3900 women will give birth at the hospital in the next 11 months and one week.
More commuters on the Werribee line catch a train without paying than on any other line in Melbourne, new data reveals. Latest fare evasion statistics from Public Transport Victoria reveal that 3.4 per cent of Werribee line users are travelling without a valid ticket. The Alamein-Glen Waverley line had the lowest level of fare evasion on the network, with just two per cent of passengers not paying their way. Overall, fare evasion on the train network is at 2.7 per cent. Public Transport Victoria said while some Werribee line commuters were still opting to travel without a valid ticket, fare evasion on the line had dropped from eight per cent in May 2014. “It’s extremely positive that customers on the Werribee line are now paying their way, demonstrating that PTV’s efforts to reduce fare evasion are working,” a spokeswoman said. “The chance of getting caught without a valid ticket continues to increase – more than 13 million tickets have been checked since July last year.” The spokeswoman said the fare evasion survey helped PTV determine where to target its operations. The survey is carried out over four weeks in May and October. Higher levels of fare evasion were recorded on Wyndham’s bus network where PTV-authorised officers found 8.7 per cent of passengers using buses at Werribee Plaza did not have a valid ticket. Fare evasion costs the public transport network about $38 million a year.

By Charlene Macaulay Highway patrol crews from Footscray and Williamstown police stations will move to Tarneit this week in a combined effort to drive down road trauma across the west. From this Sunday, the Wyndham, Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong highway patrol squads will operate out of the Wyndham North police station in Tarneit. The new unit, to be called the Westgate highway patrol, will have 28 police officers – 11 from Wyndham, eight each from Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong, and one tactical intelligence operative – as well as eight police cars and two off-road motorcycles. The Wyndham highway patrol is already based at the Tarneit station. Westgate road policing adviser Damien Madden said the merger meant the Westgate highway patrol would be able to focus on road trauma and problem areas en masse. Senior Sergeant Madden said the new unit would include a crew to focus on recidivist offenders, including hoon drivers and drink drivers. The merger also meant the region would have a supervisor on duty for every shift, which is currently not the case for the three areas. “It’s going to be a great leap forward in how we do things,” he said. “We know that distracted, or rear-end collisions, are a problem for road trauma due to congested roads and people getting frustrated and jumping in and out of lanes. “Vulnerable road users are also overrepresented out in the Westgate division. “In Hobsons Bay, we’re having more bicycle collisions; Wyndham is motorcycle collisions, Maribyrnong is pedestrians. So we’re able to target our operations and activities to what’s

going on at the time and provide a larger response to the problems. “Wyndham is our growth area and accounts for a larger percentage of the road trauma than Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong.” Senior Sergeant Madden stressed that
highway patrol officers would still be able to effectively cover the Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay areas in a timely manner, with units deployed regularly across all three areas. “They’re driving out of a different garage but still policing the same three areas.”

Werribee’s Avenue of Honour will live on while roadworks for the new East Werribee Employment Precinct are carried out. The $71 million project involves building a freeway interchange at Sneydes Road and upgrading the intersection of Hoppers Lane and the Princes Highway. Wyndham councillor Glenn Goodfellow said the council was working with VicRoads to ensure the First World War Avenue of Honour along the Princes Highway would live on as the new freeway interchange is built. The move follows concern in the community that the historic memorial of elm trees planted in 1918 would be lost. The council is also working to ensure a particular tree, known as the Governor’s gum, is retained during the works. The tree commemorates William Calder, a pioneer of Victoria’s road network. Cr Goodfellow said it was important that the city’s heritage was not lost. “While much-needed infrastructure for our growing community is delivered, our significant past should not be forgotten,” he said. “We have worked closely with VicRoads on the design review and negotiated with them to retain the Governor’s tree and minimise tree loss.” Cr Goodfellow said the council’s negotiations had resulted in more than 80 trees being saved. New trees will also be planted in the area.

Wyndham still on the NBN outer By Laura Michell Wyndham households face an even longer wait for high speed internet after the area was left off the latest NBN roll-out schedule. No new Wyndham suburbs have been added to the network since 2013, despite parts of the municipality having trouble getting on to the internet due to a shortage of space in the ADSL exchanges. Residents of large areas of Werribee, Wyndham Vale, Hoppers Crossing and Point Cook will now need to wait for the next roll-out to find out when the high-speed broadband network will be delivered in their area.
Lalor MP Joanne Ryan has raised the issue in Federal Parliament on several occasions and has written to Communications Minister Malcolm Turnbull asking when the rest of Wyndham will be connected to the NBN. She also recently conducted a survey to gauge residents’ views on the issue. “I have lobbied hard to ensure this community has access to quality broadband provisions. My recent survey shows we have a serious internet access problem,” Ms Ryan said. “Most residents have no idea when the NBN will be coming to town and what kind of NBN it will be.” The decision to leave Wyndham off the latest
roll-out comes as residents living in areas already connected to the NBN claim they are waiting up to two months to have their service activated. Manor Lakes resident Joao Canoquena was told his property would be connected to the network by the time he moved in. Two months on, he is still waiting for NBN Co to arrive and connect his house. Mr Canoquena, who is completing his PhD, said not having internet access was putting him at a disadvantage. “At our old address, there was no internet access or exchange space for us, so having internet was a high priority on our agenda when
we were looking for land,” Mr Canoquena said. NBN Co spokesman Michael Moore said there were more than 10,000 premises in Werribee and Wyndham Vale that could connect or would soon be connected to the network. He said the coming release of a three-year construction plan would provide a clearer picture of when the roll-out would start in other parts of Melbourne’s west. “In planning the roll-out, the Australian government expects us to prioritise those locations where there is poor service or no service at all; that’s generally in rural and remote areas,” he said.
Bollywood of the west The theme of the competition is Bollywood dancing, although teams can incorporate other dance styles into their routine. Ms Koorthy has visited the schools taking part in the competition to teach the students some Bollywood dance moves. “We chose it as the theme because it’s so popular. Everybody loves Bollywood because of the colour. “Some of the teams have been proactive and looked up Bollywood dancing on the internet. Everyone knows about Bollywood these days.” Prizes will be awarded for choreography, costumes and male and female performers. The competition starts at 4pm. The entry fee is $20.

Suzanne Cory High School will become a sea of colour on Saturday when six high school dance groups take to the stage in a Bollywood dance-off. The groups from schools across the western suburbs will compete in the High School Dance Competition. Organiser Archana Koorthy says the competition has been about two years in the making. She hopes it will encourage more young people to take up dancing and show off their creativity. “I’m a dance teacher and I am passionate about dancing,” Ms Koorthy said. “I wanted to do something for the youth in the area. “This is a platform to promote teamwork, boost confidence levels and inspire students to connect culturally through the art of dance.”

Kevin Hillier considers the appeal of social media
W
hen it comes to social media I think most of my generation has a love-hate relationship with most of its platforms. My vocation demands that I am across most of it. But, really, who is interested in what someone had for breakfast – including photos – or the continuous pictures of people at events, drink in hand, poking tongues out or pulling faces? I do like to know what my friends are up to, in a broad, general sense. Family updates are good, too, but some of the stuff people share about their personal life is opening up the too-muchinformation file. Is there no shame any more? The language of social media is interesting, to say the least. There are no censorship restrictions as anyone who saw Sinead O’Connor’s Facebook posting about Kim Kardashian last week can attest. I do find some of the rants from people highly amusing and some highly offensive. I guess, for some, Facebook is their version of this column – a chance to express their opinions and thoughts in a public forum. Maybe that’s why I don’t post a lot of stuff on my Facebook page. I value my
privacy, and as such still believe some things are not to be shared, either in this column or on social media, but I think that philosophy is fading fast for the next generation. Twitter is an instantaneous resource for people like me. I find it very handy when I’m on SEN radio, but I also make sure any major news is thoroughly checked out first before broadcasting it. Some reporters and news agencies are so keen to be first with the story that they’ll cut corners with the facts. One undeniable advantage of social media is its global reach. The world has been shrunk down to the screen of your mobile, tablet or computer, and that’s sensational. Yes, it has taken out the personal contact to a degree, but in many cases it has introduced contact we had probably lost or put in the toohard basket. The dark side is the sleazy sites, the scammers and the cyber-bullies, but like every layer of society, it’s there. I am interested to know how you use social media and your thoughts on the best and worst aspects of it. ■

Firefighters attended six Wyndham house fires in June, all of which they say could have been prevented. The Metropolitan Fire Brigade and Country Fire Authority reported 280 preventable house fires across Victoria last month, including six in Wyndham. Most (37 per cent) started in kitchens, 19 per cent due to unattended cooking.
Teen charged over robbery
Detectives with Altona North police’s Embona armed robbery taskforce have charged a 17-year-old boy after an attempted armed robbery at Wyndham Vale last month. Investigators have been told a man allegedly brandished a large kitchen knife at a milkbar on Cambridge Crescent about 8pm on Friday, June 26. The Werribee teen handed himself into police earlier this month and has been charged with one count of attempted armed robbery. He will appear at a children’s court.

Unpaid rates run into millions By Laura Michell A Wyndham property owner owes the council more than half a million dollars in unpaid rates. The owner is the ‘leader’ among ratepayer-debtors amid data showing that, as of June 30, the council was chasing about $14 million in unpaid municipal dues – $3 million more than this time last year. Chief executive Kerry Thompson said 9177 properties had outstanding rates for the 2014-15 financial year.
She said the rates deficit of $13,914,796 included properties that had not paid their rates in the years prior to the last financial year. “This figure relates to properties with outstanding balances of $100 or more and includes the fire services property levy, as well as partial and full outstanding rates balances,� Ms Thompson said. The largest overdue amount is $501, 607. Ms Thompson said the council followed a standard process to collect unpaid rates. “Arrears notices are sent for amounts outstanding and generally there are at least six

Western Community Legal Centre manager Denis Nelthorpe said home owners with
overdue rates were usually also experiencing mortgage stress. He urged the council to develop a “more sophisticated� way of pursuing rate arrears, adding that taking home owners to court was not always the best course of action. “It’s one of the most stressful ways of trying to obtain a payment plan,� he said. “They need to come up with a more sophisticated response to home owners who are experiencing mortgage stress. Councils that have much more effective mechanisms [employ] people with the specific purpose of dealing with ratepayers in arrears.�

The videos have resulted in Ms Ricci taking an interest behind the lens, and she will use the $500 grant she received from Wyndham council to buy camera equipment. “With auditions nowadays, you have to send what’s called a self-test; you have to film an audition at home, do a little chat to camera, put it on YouTube or email and send it to the casting director, and they screen people that way before they hold physical auditions. “I didn’t know how to use a camera or anything about lighting, so I thought if I made videos and put them on the internet it would be a good way to learn how to do all that.� Charlene Macaulay

Already she has had small roles on the ABC’s This is Littleton, and Channel Ten’s Party Tricks. “There’s always the thought that it’s a very superficial industry, and I’m not going to look how I look forever and I’m not going to be young forever, but I think that, ultimately, I want to be happy in my life and performing and telling stories is what makes me happy. “If I don’t pursue it, I think I’ll regret it later.�

Basketball in the frame A Werribee man wants to put Australians’ role in the NBA on the big screen, writes Laura Michell Werribee’s Josh Howlett has wanted to work in the film industry since he was a child. Now the budding producer’s dreams might be about to come true, with several film studios expressing an interest in his movie project inspired by Australian basketballer Matthew Dellavedova. About three years ago, Mr Howlett wrote an idea for a movie on four pieces of paper after watching an ESPN documentary on Dellavedova, who was recruited by St Mary’s College of California in 2009. Mr Howlett was interested in Dellavedova’s story and began thinking it could be the basis for a movie. So, the Final Four was born. The movie follows the story of young Australian basketballers who move to the US in the hope of being recruited to the NBA. It’s based on Dellavedova’s success since joining the Cleveland Cavaliers in 2013, including his team’s journey to this year’s finals. “The concept has now taken off due to Matthew Dellavedova’s performance in the NBA finals,” Mr Howlett said. “Final Final Four is about Australians competing against Americans. It’s hard to make an Australian story that does well over there, but I think this is an Australian story that can play worldwide.” Mr Howlett passed on his ideas for
the movie to screenwriter Bobby Galinsky, who put together a script, and he has since signed on as the film’s executive producer. Another member of Final Four’s production team is Jason Shuman, while True Detective star Woody Harrelson is being approached to play the coach. Mr Howlett hopes to cast unknown actors for the roles of the Australian basketballers. “We’re talking with studios at the moment and then we’ll go after the talent. “There has been interest from some pretty big studios and top talent.” While more investors are still needed for the film, Mr Howlett says he hopes filming can begin next year, with the majority of the movie to be shot in Australia. Mr Howlett, who spent the past year living in Los Angeles working on other projects, says he’s amazed at the level of interest in Final Four Four. “Nearly every day I get sent a new article [on the movie] from friends in America,” he said.

Now, it’s down to business By Charlene Macaulay
Show of colour warms winter Orchid blooms will be displayed in all their colourful profusion when the Werribee Orchid Club hosts its annual winter show this weekend. Club vice-president Philip Richards says Australian Orchid Society judges will award the ‘best home-grown orchids on show’. The event will include potting demonstrations, floral art and orchid sales. Mr Richards says the club has winter and spring shows each year, and he reveals the secret to growing award-winning orchids is love, attention and using the right mix. “It’s not that hard to do, actually.” Bill Botheras (pictured), a member of the Werribee Orchid Club since it started 22 years ago, will be exhibiting some of his blooms during the weekend. The orchid show will be held at the Italian Sports Club of Werribee, 601 Heaths Road, Werribee, this Saturday, 9am-4pm, and Sunday from 9am-3pm. Entry costs $4.

Companies are getting behind Wyndham’s newest advocacy group, which will promote business and tourism in the region. The Wyndham Business and Tourism Association hosted its first annual meeting last Wednesday, voting in foundation member and Park Hotel co-owner Nick Christou as president. Mr Christou says the association will run three sub-committees – advocacy, events and promotions, and membership services – to advocate for change on relevant issues and create a calendar of events to entice locals and tourists to spend time in Wyndham Further sub-committees will be created as issues and concerns are identified. Mr Christou urged Wyndham business owners to actively participate and have a say in shaping Wyndham’s future. “We’re local businesspeople representing local businesses at a local level,” he said. “People are time-poor and, with two associations, there’s a lot of duplication. “We want to grow Wyndham and represent business – whether it’s from an advocacy point of view and addressing things like car parking, or addressing things like graffiti, streetscapes and public transport. “From an events and tourism point of view, we want to put Wyndham on the map,” he said. “There’s already some very good work that’s being done at the moment and some very well-respected local businesspeople are involved at board level and as members.” The Wyndham Business and Tourism Association is kicking off with a membership drive to get more businesses on board.

MY WYNDHAM Eric Johnston served four years on the Burma-Thai railway as a prisoner of war. The Wyndham Vale resident celebrates his 97th birthday on July 28, and tells his story to Charlene Macaulay, with a little help from daughters Gail and Ann. You served in the Australian army – did you sign up voluntarily or were you enlisted? Eric: I signed up. I transferred from the army reserves into the regulars. I was about 18 and I’d left school – I wasn’t too good in school – and I went away to the war and luckily, came back home again. I wasn’t really damaged, there were a lot left worse than I was. You were fighting in the 8th Division Signals, F Force when you were captured by the Japanese, and spent four years as a prisoner of war in Changi. What was that like? It was very hard. The Japanese were losing the war, and so they decided to build a railway line in Thailand, and that’s where they employed most of the prisoners of war. We lost a lot of men over that, because it was all hand-done, there were no machines. War is a terrible thing. Ann: The hardest part was for the people back at home as well, because they didn’t know if he was alive or not; he was missing in action. I took him back to Thailand about 10 years ago; we went back on a mission to show him how the railway had gone back to nature. It was no longer this harsh, cruel place he had memories of … it was a big thing for him to go back. How did you meet your wife, Vera? Eric: I met her at a soldier’s dance, and she was as shy as a pussycat. I sold my pushbike to get the money to buy the marriage licence. Ann: He got married while he was on leave, before he went away to the war. Mum passed away last year.

What was life like when you came home? I played football, and did bike riding, and I was a bowler, a cricketer, a golfer – all the sports kept me pretty fit. After I was discharged from the army, I was a forestry officer. We went dancing a lot and had picnics; we lived a happy life. We always had our kids with us, we hardly ever went anywhere without the whole family. In my day, family was the big thing.
You were in the motorcade around the MCG for this year’s Anzac Day AFL match. What was that like? Gail: Dad’s a member of Ex-PoW Association of Australia, and they contacted him to see if he’d like to do the parade at the Anzac Day football match. He said yes, but then he had a stroke and was in hospital for three weeks, but anyway, we sorted it all out and went to the MCG like celebrities. His was the first car out.

Hail, red-cape cousins A memorial commemorating the work of two nurses from Little River during World War I was unveiled last Friday. The memorial features cousins Sister Kit McNaughton and Sister Sadie McIntosh, and was erected by the Little River Historical Society using $50,000 from the federal government’s Anzac Centenary local g rants program. Society president Les Sanderson said the base of the memorial was made of rock from the former family home of Sister McNaughton, while the tribute was located on Rothwell Road land that belonged to Sister McIntosh’s family. Sister McNaughton helped injured soldiers off the coast of Gallipoli before being sent to the Western Front to run an operating theatre during the Battle of Passchendaele. Sister McIntosh served in Egypt before

setting up a war hospital in England, helping injured soldiers from the frontline in France. Mr Sanderson said that while the memorial was ultimately a tribute to everyone who served in World War I, the society also wanted to commemorate the work of two locals. “It is so unusual for females to go away to war, and they have had no recognition until the last few years,” he said. “They were so important to the survival of the soldiers and they suffered, too, but they got no reward for it.” Lalor MP Joanne Ryan, who is Sister McNaughton’s granddaughter, said she was pleased the cousins had been recognised with a permanent memorial in the town where they grew up and to which Kit returned.

Work together, new MP urges R
achel Carling-Jenkins is the first female parliamentarian in the history of the Democratic Labour Party, and the 55th MP of the party. Having worked in the welfare sector since the age of 17, Dr Carling-Jenkins has a PhD in social sciences and has presented her work at numerous international conferences. In 2014, her first book was published and she continues to serve the community. “It’s human dignity and the common good that I will pursue here in Parliament, where I will tell the stories of the people I represent – people I will fight for and people I care about,” Dr Carling-Jenkins says. During her first six months in Parliament, Dr Carling-Jenkins has advocated for emergency accommodation and services in the Wyndham area to help homeless people and prevent people becoming homeless. She has also called for greater government support for those in the workforce with disabilities and, on a different tack, has advocated for a new police station at Point Cook and redevelopment of Werribee Football Club’s Avalon Airport Oval. Dr Carling-Jenkins has successfully sought government funding to build a community service centre at Essendon to provide pregnancy and family-support services. “Many families are burdened by the financial, social and emotional issues that come from problem gambling. This has invaded our regions and suburbs with expansion of poker machines into clubs and pubs where responsible limits, proven to deter problem gambling, have not been

adopted or enforced. This is another issue I will work on.” By putting her community first, Dr Carling-Jenkins aims to ensure everyone achieves optimal health and wellbeing. “In Parliament, I will be a voice for human dignity and the common good as I aspire to bring the value of human life to the forefront of our minds.” She believes thriving communities are built on strong relationships. “A society is only as strong as its relationships. While there are many different opinions and ideas in politics, the focus must always be on working together, not against each other, to make Victoria a better place.” Dr Rachel Carling-Jenkins, Suite 3, 1-13 Watton Street, Werribee.

Learning at the highest level T
homas Carr College is a school that wants to provide students of all cultures with exceptional education. “We aim to educate our students with an appreciation of the spiritual as well as the intellectual and physical aspects of their lives,” principal Dr Andrew Watson says. “We work with our parents to produce young people of faith and character.” Thomas Carr College, in Tarneit in Melbourne’s west, is a catholic co-educational college on about 11 hectares of land. It caters for students from years 7 to 12. The college’s new iD9 program is focused on providing year 9 students with personal growth and community living skills, leadership qualities, an appreciation for sustainability and physical fitness. The program also gives students the opportunity to experience city living for a week and three weeks of country living at the newly refurbished Good Samaritan campus in Coragulac, near Colac. This year, the college completed the first stage of its $22 million building program. Stage one involved the construction of a $7 million learning centre for students in years 7 and 8. Stage 2, which cost $3 million, produced a state-of-the-art trade training centre which gives students the opportunity to achieve a Certificate II and III in carpentry, furniture-making and brick and block laying. In 2016, the trade training centre will also offer plumbing courses. The new facility uses the latest technology and has a fully stocked workshop and studios.

Thomas Carr College aims to provide students with the opportunity to pursue their desired pathways. “The college has built a beautiful chapel, which is the central focus of the Catholic identity of the college and a reminder of the important place that faith has in educating students,” Dr Watson says.
“As a Catholic school, we meet the educational needs of our families. “We recognise change as a positive and provide our students with the confidence and skills to become future leaders.” Thomas Carr College, 25 Thomas Carr Drive, Tarneit. Inquiries: 8734 2444 or www.thomascarr.vic.edu.au

The next expo, at Hobsons Bay Civic Centre on Saturday, August 15, will give senior drivers the chance to have free, confidential, one-on-one sessions with registered driving instructors who, among other things, will explain some of the consequences of bad driving habits. “We can all be better drivers with a few simple things, like keeping up with new road laws, ensuring our health is as good as it can be, getting rid of bad driving habits and keeping our cars in good condition,” says Jim Giddings, the chairman of RoadSafe Westgate. The expo will provide drivers with a free and confidential once-over of their vehicle, and there will be professional advice from VicRoads roadworthy officers and experts on proper tyre care. As well, participants will get the latest information on updates to Victoria’s road laws. Drivers will also be informed of what medicines may inhibit safe and proper driving technique. “There will be the opportunity to ask highway patrol officers questions and everyone will receive a free senior driver’s expo pack,” Jim says. “This will include a reusable carry bag, a senior driver’s handbook, a book on the rules and responsibilities of driving and other relevant information.”
So if you’re an older driver and you want to ensure you remain one, make a booking now and keep up to date with what’s happening on Vctoria’s roads. To secure a place or for further

ustralia’s first Catholic saint, St Mary MacKillop, is the inspiration behind Werribee’s MacKillop College, a Catholic school that integrates faith, life and culture. The co-educational school encourages individuals to reach their full potential as life-long learners by providing an innovative, challenging and collaborative learning and teaching environment in a rapidly evolving society. MacKillop is a Catholic secondary college named after Mary MacKillop, co-founder of the Congregation of the Sisters of St. Joseph of the Sacred Heart. Inspired by Saint Mary of the Cross, we are a Catholic school with Gospel values that are lived out here every day through our faith commitment to Jesus, animated by the charisma of St Mary of the Cross and our Josephite tradition. The college pursues excellence in learning and teaching to support the vision of Catholic Education in the development of the whole person, founded upon Gospel values. The MacKillop community strives to follow in the footsteps of St Mary of the Cross MacKillop. Current building of a college chapel will further nurture education in faith. “We are so proud of who St Mary was and still is to us,” says principal Mr Rory Kennedy. Mr Kennedy says he strives to ensure his leadership style is in accordance with the mission of the Church, saying: “Our vision statement is ‘Celebrating all life, Challenging all people, Dreaming the new day.’ “I lead the MacKillop community in accordance with our vision and mission
statements, which encompass pastoral care and faith development. “Pastoral care is at the forefront at the college. Parents are looking for a place that’s safe and where there’s a joy of learning. “We have a beautiful environment with state-of-the-art facilities, where a major emphasis is placed on digital contemporary learning strategies; the college is incredibly ICT savvy. Students are supported in becoming active, self-sufficient and engaged learners.” The pathways available to senior students continue to diversify, with the SEDA Sport Development Partnership Program and more than 40 Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) subjects with alternative pathways through Victorian Certificate of Applied Learning (VCAL) and Vocational Education and Training (VET) certificates. The college has introduced the Trade Training Development Program Certificate II in engineering studies in mechanical and fabrication streams as another pathway for senior students. From years 7-10, a strong core and elective program establishes good learning and study practices. MacKillop has a dedicated year 9 campus at St Mary’s Werribee South and a select-entry vocational pathways program for year 10 students. Some of the programs offered have been designed to foster close links with the local community and raise awareness of local, national and international citizenship and responsibility. The Individual Needs Program offers a contemporary curriculum for gifted and talented students and to support students who experience learning difficulties.

ood News Lutheran College continues to grow and expand, providing quality education to the young learners of Tarneit. Built on the fundamentals of developing a strong sense of service and respect, the college encourages students to grow spiritually, intellectually, socially, physically and emotionally, right through from prep to year 12. “Our college prepares students and helps them become responsible, contributing members of the college, church and wider community,” says principal Simon Hughes. Opening in 1997 as the Good News Primary School, the college began with just 24 students and two staff. In 2010, it received funding to build a multi-purpose hall, gym, drama room and canteen, and approval was granted to begin secondary education. The school was then formally renamed Good News Lutheran College. This year, year 11 studies began and full VCE studies and further campus expansions are under way. Based on Australian curriculum standards, middle and senior school students cover a range of subjects, with teachers involved in curriculum development on a regular basis. All students take part in Christian-based studies, chapel and wellbeing sessions, reinforcing the college’s core values. “Every student has their own unique gifts and abilities. Each has their own valuable contribution to make,” Mr Hughes says.

A recent study published by Nature Neuroscience found that the brain processes being socially disconnected as a fundamental survival threat, as humans have always relied on others for survival. If cues that signal our connections to others are threatened or damaged, this may activate a neural alarm system, activating negative responses from the nervous system. In contrast, having social cues that signal you’re cared for and connected to others activate neural regions and promote good health.

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.

EAT YOUR VEGIE WEDGIES
JOE PIGNATARO
For me, winter is synonymous with wedges – of the potato variety. They’re a great go-to, warm-up food because they’re quick to prepare, they’re healthy and kids can’t get enough of them.
HUNGRY FOR SPORT PRODUCER AT SEN
Recipes such as Jamie Oliver’s smoky mixed potato wedges will give any oven chip a run for its money. Just wash two large sweet potatoes and two medium potatoes (keep the skin on), slice them lengthwise into four pieces, then across – so you end up with eight pieces. Pop them in a bowl, then add a teaspoon of sweet smoked paprika and a pinch each of sea salt and pepper. Drizzle over two tablespoons of olive oil then mix everything together to coat.
FB: How would you rate your cooking skills? JP: Competent. FB: What is your signature dish? JP: Pumpkin ravioli with a burnt butter sauce and sage. FB: If you could only have one more meal, what would it be? JP: Pizza. And a large one at that!
Spread out over a single layer on two large trays and bake at 200 degrees Celsius for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.
FB: What is your favourite food TV show and who is your favourite TV food person? JP: Love My Kitchen Rules, especially the episodes when the guests are sitting there for hours on end! Favourite TV food person is Giada De Laurentiis … simply because of the way she says ‘eerbs’ instead of ‘herbs’.
Thanks so much for your feedback on food phobias. I both laughed and sympathised when Food Bytes reader Poormina emailed me about her dislike of watermelons: “Once I ate a watermelon when I was a child, and vomited. From then on, I never ate watermelons. If I try it, I feel like vomiting. My husband used to comment ‘whichever is healthy, you don’t like.’ I know that. But what to do?”
FB: What is your favourite food? JP: Pizza, by the length of the Flemington straight. Schnitzel way back at the turn would be the closest thing to it. FB: What is your favourite drink? JP: Water when I’m at home. Out – lemon, lime and bitters. FB: Which five people would you most like to invite to dinner? JP: Emma Watson, Rachel McAdams, David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd, Daniel Harford and Jason Richardson. FB: Do you have a kitchen tip for us? JP: Let mum do as much as possible. Mums know best.

In arguably one of the best spots in a vibrant suburb, this well-formed unit on about 298 square metres has a smaller footprint than some but manages to pack in plenty of temptation for a small family, downsizer or investor. Three good-sized bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and share a bright, mostly white bathroom. A spacious family-meals area (tiled meals, carpeted sitting) abuts the kitchen, which has ample top and bottom cupboards, a breakfast bench and an upright cooker. A Laserlite-clad pergola out back sits above brick paving and faces greenery which screens the fence nicely. Ducted heating, an air-conditioner and a concrete driveway leading to a garage are other features – and there’s driveway space for a second car.
This one in much-admired Alamanda estate is within metres of Club Alamanda’s gym, pool, tennis court, function centre and children’s indoor playground. And, to add icing to cake, it’s in the high-demand Alamanda College zone. Shiny and well-presented, the house has a decor that borrows from a Tuscan palette, with terracotta-toned floor tiles and laminate benches against sandstone wall paint and carpets. Four good-sized bedrooms include the main with an en suite. An open, carpeted lounge room at the front couples with a tiled family-meals zone, where the kitchen has stainless-steel cooking appliances and a dishwasher. Presently leased to superb long-term tenants at $1540 a calendar month, the house also has ducted heating, a split-system and remote-controlled double garage with internal access.

If movie nights with family and friends are part of an entertainment agenda, this well-presented house has it sewn up, with its separate, carpeted theatre room with sound-proof insulation. This is one of three distinct living zones, another of which is a retreat area and the other a large family-meals zone with floorboards. The classic black-and-white kitchen has a return island bench under pendant lights, a pantry cupboard and stainless-steel appliances, including dishwasher. Four bedrooms include the main with en suite and each has a vibrant feature wall. A sail above paving is the spot for outdoor entertainment and there’s a good wedge of lawn and landscaped gardens. Other treats are ducted heating, evaporative cooling, downlights, alarm system and remote-controlled double garage with internal access.
In a top-notch spot in Manor Lakes estate, this modern gem on about 342 square metres has a price point that will have first-home buyers and investors rubbing their hands in anticipation. It has heaps going for it, not least the location, within a stroll of the new train station and Manor Lakes shopping centre. The tiled entry hall is flanked by two bedrooms (with wardrobes), a good-sized bathroom, separate toilet and laundry with closet. The big main bedroom is at the back and has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite. The entry hall ends at the living hub of kitchen-family-meals zone which opens to expansive concrete (the spot to put up a pergola in future) and landscaped gardens. The kitchen has an island bench and stainless-steel appliances, including dishwasher. Gas ducted heating and cooling, downlights and a lock-up double garage are part of the deal.

WERRIBEE 1 Delatite Court, 3030 Sweeney Estate Agents: 9974 0922
Price: Contact agent
Designed to reflect the owner’s German heritage, this distinctive abode on a corner block would look equally at home on an English village postcard. There’s a classic elegance here, juxtaposed with the rusticity of timber ceilings with exposed beams in most rooms. Doors (with brass fittings), architraves, skirts and an archway maintain the timber motif, but this is the kind of place that would also respond well to some bright paintwork, if a more contemporary note is on the decor agenda. Let’s start upstairs, where the cute cottage feel really comes into its own – it’s

Private sale
a space that littlies could fall in love with and grown-ups could relish for its romantic appeal (and value-adding potential). At each end, there’s a smallish bedroom with steeply pitched ceiling, while the two in between have multiple ceiling beams, and deep in-roof storage (an oft-repeated feature up here). One of these bedrooms has a deep dormer window, with an external window box planted with red geraniums – cute as. The bathroom they share is fully tiled in a blue-and-white pattern (reminiscent of Delft), and has a heat lamp. Also up here is a narrow spiral staircase
up to a carpeted loft space, large enough for two rooms, if needed, but, as is, a perfect play retreat. There’s another bedroom downstairs, near a fully tiled bathroom (same blue-and-white pattern), with dual vanity basins and brass tapware. A separate toilet and a laundry (both fully tiled, same pattern) are nearby. Double doors from the entry foyer open to a beige-carpeted lounge room, which has an archway defining the entry to a large study with built-in cabinetry. These elegant rooms link to the kitchen (under the same exposed-beam ceiling), which has lots of

timber cupboards, dual wall ovens, electric cooktop and dishwasher. The adjoining meals zone accesses the back garden, where brick paving and dense greenery make it a pretty spot to perch. The side yard is large and has a big shed, and potential for driveway space – there’s already an off-street parking area on the other side. Within a stroll of Watton Street treats, this is a house waiting for new owners to appreciate its utter uniqueness. Carole Levy 31 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ JULY 22, 2015

NEW HOMES AND LAND
Did you know that choosing timber cabinets for your new kitchen can make you feel physically and mentally better? That’s the finding of a Planet Ark-commissioned report, released earlier this year. Numerous studies found that exposure to wood products and interiors has measurable health benefits, similar to those created by spending time in nature. “An increasing body of research is beginning to show that being surrounded by wood at home, work or school has positive effects on the body, the brain and the environment,” says Chris Philpot, Make It Wood campaign manager at Planet Ark, “and can even shorten hospital stays through reduced recovery times.” Studies clearly demonstrate that the warmth and comfort of wood in interiors has the effect of lowering blood pressure and heart rates, reducing stress and anxiety and increasing positive social interactions. Wood products in a room also improve indoor air quality by moderating humidity. Planet Ark’s report said that increasing urbanisation means people have less access to nature in their daily lives and Australians on average now spend more than 90 per cent of their time indoors. This has well-reported health consequences, so understanding how to incorporate the many benefits of nature into the indoor environment is an increasingly important area of research. In addition to its health impacts, the use of responsibly sourced, certified wood can have significant positive environmental outcomes and help reduce climate change.

Timber is a healthy design choice for you and your new home
New-home builders would be wise to take these findings into account and, just like energy ratings, the use of wood could be a significant, credible selling point.
good to note that an increasing number of architects who design buildings for healing, learning and relaxation are now incorporating significant amounts of wood into their structures.
Yet only six out of ten survey participants understood that wood stores carbon and creates less carbon emissions during production than steel and concrete. In the light of these findings, it’s

FOOD REVIEW
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir visits an old favourite and is happy all over again In the rush of the new and the thrill of discoveries, it’s inevitable we all overlook places that have been around for a while, ones we come to take for granted. We hit Magic Momo Kafe in its early days but have since looked, gone, eaten and written elsewhere. But on a freezing early-in-the-week night, Bennie and I make an impromptu visit and become very happy we do so. We bugger up the ordering to some extent – in terms of similar dishes – but end up reflecting that here’s a local establishment that offers intriguing and very affordable points of difference from the plethora of nearby Indian eateries. It’s a cosy place, although tonight is such a chiller that the heater near our table struggles. And we love the pressed metal ceilings! We start with entree serves of five of the steamed chicken momo ($5) and chilli vegetable momo ($6.50). We like them both but the vegetable numbers win the day with their smooth, tasty innards. The “chilli” component is an OK jumble of vegetables somewhat in the Chinese style. The same vegetables pop up in the traditional soup thukpa ($11.95). Our vegetable version is a noodle-based large bowl of niceness that is easily big enough for us to share. More of that Chinese influence on Nepalese food is displayed in the staple chowmein ($10). It’s far less oily than we might expect from a
MAGIC MOMO KAFE Address: 588 Barkly Street, West Footscray Phone: 9972 2616 Chinese, Vietnamese on Indo-Chinese dish. The whole thing has a beaut charred thing going on and the lamb strips are chewy and a bit like jerky. It’s very good and it’s the highlight of our meal. Grilled sekuwa ($9.90) is described as “meat roasted in a natural wood/log fire in a real traditional Nepalese country style”. The marinated lamb – cumin is among the ingredients – is served on puffed rice and is quite good, if a little on the chewy side but I suspect that’s just the way it’s supposed to be. It’s a rather pricey dish, though, for what amounts to not much more than a handful of meat. On a slightly earlier visit, I’d selected one of several “sets” available at Magic Momo Kafe. The Nepali khana set ($17.50) is a tad more expensive than your average Indian-style thali offerings found in the west and across Melbourne but I enjoyed the heck out of it. I hope we’ll find time to visit Magic Momo Kafe again soon – the menu is longish and there’s lots to explore.

SPORT Rhinos call for competition restructure division. The second division – I call it the set-and-forget division – they set it and forget about it.” The Rhinos feature in the top-flight A-grade section of the second division. That competition started with eight teams, and went down to six after the demise of Melton and Northern. Instead of playing a game this Saturday, the Rhinos will have a bye due to Melton pulling out of the competition. Drummond feels it’s time for the structure of the leagues to be reviewed, and he wants to see the stronger second division clubs promoted to the premier ranks where they can fight for promotion to higher leagues. “I think they need to rethink the way the
competition is structured,” Drummond said. “They have P1, P2, P3 and P4. “In years gone by, the P4 was a bits and pieces kind of division, but it’s formed into a fairly good competition. “Where we’re at, we can only play who’s in the second division … there are Melbourne-based clubs here we could get into a competition with in Premier 4,” Drummond said. “They need to make it more competitive for clubs like ours, which are still fairly strong.” Meanwhile, the Rhinos are bound for the finals after a 57-19 win over Maroondah at Mossfiel Reserve on Saturday. Lance Jenkinson
Tigers spoil long ‘party’ By Lance Jenkinson Werribee Districts reached for the top shelf and dusted off a vintage performance to bring Deer Park’s 23-month unbeaten run to an abrupt halt in Western Region Football League’s division 1. Not since August 31, 2013, after an upset by Spotswood in a semi-final, have the Lions swallowed the bitter pill of defeat. Incredibly, they’ve won two premierships and had an undefeated season since that day. The Tigers were not even part of the WRFL the last time Deer Park was beaten, but were certainly front and centre on Saturday, lapping up a stunning 55-point win on home turf at Soldiers Reserve. “The boys are pretty happy at the moment,” Tigers’ co-captain Matt Dean told Star Weekly. “We’ve always thought that when we play our best we can beat anyone in the competition.” The question has to be asked, why can’t the Tigers produce this type of form consistently? This is not the first time this season they have troubled the all-conquering Lions. They got to within a kick in their first meeting earlier in the year. Instead of merely fighting for a finals berth, they should now be entrenched in double chance territory of the top three – but the side sits fourth as a result of its turbulent form. Dean is not hiding from the fact that inconsistency is a major issue. They go from giant-killers one week to shock losers the next. Only when they stop their yo-yo form can they be considered a true premiership contender. A month out from finals and with big clashes against St Albans, Hoppers Crossing and Spotswood still to come, now is the perfect time for the Tigers to get off the rollercoaster and find their level – to see if they can push for a flag in their second season back since crossing from the VAFA competition. “We’ve dropped a couple of games this year that we definitely shouldn’t have, which looks like it’s going to hurt us and we might have to play an elimination come finals time if we’re lucky enough to finish in the top five,” Dean said. “We put it down to the mental side of the game. You turn up some weeks and everyone is switched on and you turn up other weeks and not everyone is mentally prepared to do the right things. “We just need to do what we did today each week and be consistent, and hopefully come finals time it all gels together.” The Tigers kept Deer Park to just nine scoring shots and had 29 their way. This was a total dismantling of the Lions not seen in years. Shaun McGuinness, who kept dangerous Lions’ forward James Wong to one goal, was adjudged the Tigers’ best player. “He won so many one-on-one contests, getting the punch in and rebounding and 72 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ JULY 22, 2015
■ It finally happened. Deer Park lost a game of football, something they have not endured for nearly two years. The loss will not jeopardise their position on top of the ladder, but it does give hope to all the sides in finals contention that they can be beaten. It also gives coach Marc Bullen new motivation for the rest of the season. Contrary to some of the Deer Park faithful who spoke to me after and during the game, I did not take great personal delight in seeing the Lions lose. I think it is good for the competition and I also think it will be good for the reigning premiers in the long run. Werribee Districts did their homework and they worked relentlessly to get the four points. Well done. ■ Albanvale Football Club is by no means one of the glamour clubs of the WRFL. However, there is a lot to like about the club and the people involved. Internally they are a band of brothers. This is best illustrated by the recent and upcoming milestones. John Sirianni played his 400th game recently, John Allen his 300th and in the next few weeks Brendan Cassar has his 300th and Dean Formosa his 400th, all Albanvale games. Those names along with Borg, Henderson, Spatolisano, Cuthbertson, Karim and Bassi have been at the club for many years. They have not won a senior flag despite many finals’ appearances but are red-hot favourites in division 3 this year. ■ They don’t make them much tougher than Dale Morris who played his 200th AFL game last week for the Bulldogs. Unfortunately it was a loss to the Cats but nothing can sour the amazing achievement of one of the most popular men to wear the red, white and blue. He battled to get to league footy. He didn’t make the TAC cup, went to Werribee on the recommendation of Simon Minton Connell and he did not exactly have clubs clamouring for his services. After a few rejections and 36 games for Werribee, the Bulldogs finally rookie-listed him. The broken leg he suffered in 2011 would have ended the career of a lesser person. He never gave up and eventually came back and has plenty more football left in him. And he is a gem of a bloke. One of those people who you can’t help but like and who you want to see do well. ■ Happy to report thanks to this column we tracked down Henry Ogilvie for the Werribee Football Club. Several readers contacted the club. Thanks for your help.

setting up for us down back,” Dean said. “He’s no fuss, he goes about his business and seems to get the job done every week.” Onballers Dean and Lachlan McDowell and under-sized ruckman Jameel Sargent were influential across the park for the Tigers. Chris Molivas played a vital role at centre half-back, while Joey Halloran was moved forward to provide height to the attack. Andrew Panayi, Ryan Harrington and Scott Miller booted three goals each in the Tigers’ runaway win.
All eyes will be on the Tigers to see if the rage is maintained against a desperate St Albans as it fights for survival at Kings Park Reserve on Saturday. Meanwhile, Hoppers Crossing went down in a thriller to Altona by five points, despite having five more scoring shots in a low-scoring game at Grant Reserve. The Warriors stay second on percentage but could tumble if results go against them while they have the bye this weekend.

Wyndham City Rhinos’ president Ean Drummond has called on the Victorian Rugby Union to look at overhauling the competition’s second division. The Rhinos are one of a number of second-tier clubs that don’t meet the criteria for premier status because they lack the prerequisite three senior teams. Drummond told Star Weekly the second division was fast becoming the backwater of Victorian rugby, and he fears his club will be forgotten in the bigger picture if changes are not made. “We don’t get a lot of support from community rugby in the second division,” he said. “All of the emphasis is on the premier

Red-hot promotion push By Lance Jenkinson Hoppers Crossing is meticulously defending its seven-point lead at the top of the Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 3 north-west ladder. The Reds have been in pole position with that large gap for a month and showed no signs of letting it slip in Saturday’s professional 2-0 win over Brunswick Zebras on the road at Sumner Park. There seems to be a ruthlessness about the Reds that has carried over from their title-winning campaign in the division below a year ago. Six rounds are all that stand between Hoppers Crossing and consecutive promotions. First-year Reds coach Steve Iosifidis said his players had a taste for success. “They won’t let it go so easily,” he said. The Reds’ remaining fixtures are a mixed bag with games against top-four outfits Williamstown and Upfield in the last two rounds preceded by four games against sides sixth or below. “Our defence has really stepped up,” Iosifidis said. “I think they’ve conceded the least amount of goals in the whole of the state league.” Goalkeeper Kieron Sharratt’s clean sheet against the Zebras was his fifth in eight games. The Reds nailed all three points against the Zebras on the back of goals to John Little and Liam McDermott. In state league 4, Truganina Hornets sunk deeper into relegation quicksand with a 5-1 loss to Melton Phoenix, while Point Cook slipped further from promotion and remains stranded on 26 points after a 1-0 loss to Keilor Wolves. In the NPL, Werribee City tumbled into the bottom two after a 3-1 defeat to Port Melbourne Sharks at Galvin Park on Sunday.

Werribee Devils are on the lookout for a new men’s coach after Mark Hughes announced last week he will be stepping down from the position at the end of the campaign. The Devils were consigned to the wooden spoon in the Big V basketball men’s championship after a 109-93 loss to Ringwood on their home floor on Saturday night. They will round out the season on Saturday night when Eltham Wildcats visit Eagle Stadium on Saturday night.
Football
Westbourne Grammarians have blitzed Mt Lilydale by 140 points in a desperately one-sided VAFA division 4 clash at the Westbourne School Ground. Warriors full forward Dale Collins booted eight in the rout, taking his tally to 88 for the season, while Paul Hudson, Adam Rompel and Mitchell Gatti (five goals) had a big say over the outcome. Point Cook came back from 32 points down at quarter-time to beat Parkside by eight points in a thriller. William Dawson jagged five goals for the victorious Bulldogs.

Devils’ new coach thrown in deep end Werribee Devils’ coach Brant Lowry has conceded it’s been a “bit of a tough slog” for his team in the second half of the Big V basketball women’s division 1 season. The club was forced to make a coaching switch in the middle of the campaign when Lloyd Klaman accepted a job offer too good to refuse in Sydney. It disrupted the momentum of the young Devils team. Players tried hard to adapt to a slightly different playing style, but motivation is dwindling fast with finals out of the equation. “We’re in a bit of a hard position,” Lowry told Star Weekly. “We were out of finals a couple of weeks ago, and we changed coaches. “We’re in the phase of trying to learn something and still win at the same time, and compete. “I came a bit late to coaching; I’m trying to find a style that suits the girls, and put a bit of my spin on it.” The Devils’ 67-39 loss to Keilor Thunder at the Keilor Basketball Stadium on Sunday was lifeless – and the eighth loss in nine matches. The result was not helped by the fact that key player Alex Moss was missing through injury,
and preparation was cut due to Lowry’s own illness. “We were just flat from the start,” Lowry said. “They came out and really blitzed us. “They had a really good point guard, who was quick and hard to defend, and it put us on the back foot. “I think once we get some scores on the board and we get that momentum flowing, everyone builds on that, but there was nothing to spark us today. We got down early, got a lot of fouls, and it put us in a hole we didn’t build out of.” The stats were damning for the Devils. They shot an abysmal 16 per cent from the field and landed just one three-pointer from 16 attempts. They were also careless with the ball, turning it over 26 times. “We turned the ball over a lot early, when we weren’t under a heap of pressure,” Lowry said. “We struggled to find a way to score, and that was to do with shot selection.” The Devils remain confident of ending the season on a winning note. The side hosts Craigieburn Eagles – a team with an identical 5-14 record – at Eagle Stadium for the final game on Sunday. Lance Jenkinson

Kiwi’s adoption pays off By Lance Jenkinson Flying winger Liam Reid has been a revelation for the Werribee Bears in Victorian Rugby League. The New Zealander was virtually unknown when he arrived at the Bears last season but has quickly made a name for himself. The 26-year-old came to Australia seeking work but was also eager to get back into the game. It was at his first job in Melbourne that he came across someone from his home town of South Auckland, who pointed him in the direction of the Bears. Reid decided to commute from Caroline Springs to give the club a go and was instantly welcomed into the Bears family. “I want to thank the club for showing their faith in me,” he told Star Weekly. 74 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ JULY 22, 2015
“They didn’t know me at all when I first came here, but they gave me a shot and I’ve been here ever since.” Reid wasted no time repaying the Bears for their faith. He featured in 12 of the team’s games in his first season and was an integral part of the Bears’ first trip to the first-grade finals, scoring a try in a semi-final defeat to North West Wolves. Reid has produced some of his most dazzling rugby this season and is a major reason the Bears are a premiership chance. At one stage he was on top of the competition’s try-scoring list, but a quiet patch in recent games has seen him settle into the top-five with 11 tries. Reid has great speed and dancing feet and is a natural finisher. But it’s the rapport he has built with his
teammates in the past 18 months that is his strongest asset. “I have a really good combination with our halves,” he said. “We have little signals that we do when we’re going to put a kick in or throw a long ball. “We always talk about it at training.” Reid believes Werribee is as good a chance as any team in the competition to win the premiership. The Bears also have a massive motivating force behind them. Reid says he and his teammates were “gutted” after going down to the Wolves in last year’s semi-finals. “Everyone’s stuck together … we worked hard in pre-season and it’s showing up now,” he said. “I think we’ve got a good chance of taking it out this year.”
Coach fazed by Tigers’ goal drought Alarm bells are ringing for Werribee Tigers in the Hockey Victoria men’s Vic League 2. The Tigers’ lack of killer instinct in the past two games has resulted in consecutive losses where they have failed to score. Frustrated with the lack of goals, Tigers coach Andrew Purcell tried to shake up his line-up in a disappointing 2-0 loss to CV Blazers at President’s Park on Saturday, but it was to no avail and the side’s position in the top four is now under threat. “I’m trying to think why we haven’t scored in the past two games,” he told Star Weekly. “I’ll have a meeting with the guys at training and ask them why they think we haven’t scored in the last two games. “Again, it wasn’t from a lack of opportunities, we’re just not capitalising on our chances.” The Tigers wasted an otherwise strong outing by failing to make their dominance count on the scoreboard. They had all the early play against the Blazers, only to be hit on the counterattack twice in the game. “It’s all about momentum and putting scoreboard pressure on, which changes the whole dynamic of the game,” Purcell said. “We had some early opportunities to score and just didn’t capitalise on them and they got us on the counter-attack from a couple of our poor decisions. “We’re putting in all the work, we’ve just got to see the results on the scoreboard.” Jayden Street, one of the Tigers’ best defenders, was thrown forward to try to spark the attack. Sam Huxtable, the side’s leading scorer with 10, was put back to the midfield, while Josh Pace, the second-top scorer with six, was behind him. It was a calculated move by Purcell that had its pluses and minuses. “We tried to change our structure up a bit,” he said. “At times it worked well and at other times it probably didn’t.” Haymish Wawatai, rock solid in defence, was the Tigers’ best player on the day. Perhaps Sunday’s trip to Greater Dandenong Warriors is just what the doctor ordered for the Tigers to cure their goalscoring woes. The Warriors sit second-last on the ladder with the second-most goals conceded in the competition this season. With teams outside the top four breathing down their necks, the Tigers can’t afford a slip-up against the Warriors. “The losses have made everything a bit tighter,” Purcell said. “They’ve brought us closer to the pack with teams around us winning. “It’s going to be tight for those last couple of finals spots come the end of the year.” Meanwhile, Werribee was scoring goals for fun in the women’s Vic League 2, defeating Frankston 8-0. Incredibly, the Tigers had eight individual scorers: Laura Baker, Chloe Pickersgill, Lisa Ross, Aimee Tout, Morgan Jolly, Catherine Munro, Emma Tivendale and Jenna Howley. The Tigers are knocking on the door of the top four after the big win. Lance Jenkinson

Tigers fight tooth and nail By Lance Jenkinson Werribee Tigers jokingly posted a photo on social media on Monday of a stuffed toy giraffe in club colours, suggesting its long neck depicted the length of the club’s injury list. The Tigers had to make five enforced changes – all bona fide walk-up starters in the seniors – to the side that ran out seven days earlier and it severely hampered their chances of beating Sandringham in the VFL in Saturday at Avalon Airport Oval. Tigers coach John Lamont told Star Weekly his young side had produced one of its most gutsy performances of the season, battling it out until the bitter end before losing narrowly by 13 points. They even had to do it two rotations down after Joe Maishman (concussion) and Tom Holman (calf) suffered in-game ailments. “We had five out from the previous week and all experienced players, so we brought some younger blokes in, not first-gamers but inexperienced players, and I was pleased with their effort,” Lamont said. “We had some more injuries late in the game and just ran out of legs. We just ran out of soldiers a bit.” The Tigers fought tooth and nail the whole match and were priming for an upset. They bolted out to a two-goal lead at quarter-time before parity was restored at half-time. They even held a narrow lead at three-quarter time, largely on the back of the ball-winning abilities of Isaac Conway and Matt Hanson in a depleted midfield James Hussey did a fine job in a run-with

role on Zebras damaging midfielder Seb Ross. Josh Porter was a key target in attack with two goals, and Holman impressed in a threadbare defence. For all of the Tigers’ good work on the day, they just lacked the composure to finish off the job in the last quarter. “Sandy were just a bit steady for us,” Lamont said. “We just made some mistakes under pressure. “It still ends up being a missed opportunity – scores were level at half-time and we were in front at three-quarter time.

“We showed plenty from our blokes so it was disappointing to be beaten.” The Tigers have tumbled to eighth on the ladder after their fourth loss in five games. The task will not get any easier with premiership front-runner Box Hill Hawks visiting Watton Street on Sunday. The good news is captain Michael Sodomaco and experienced defender Scott McMahon should be back in the line-up, but there are fears that onballer Jye Bolton could miss the rest of the season with a foot injury. “He’s touch and go whether it’s the rest of the year,” Lamont said. Meanwhile, the knock-on effect of the injuries was felt by the Tigers’ development side, who managed to kick only two goals in a 106-point loss to Sandringham.
Footy’s international flavour intensifies “That was something a little bit unique.” Wallace is a North Melbourne-listed international rookie aligned with the Werribee club. The 26-year-old, from Winston-Salem in North Carolina, came on the radar of the Kangaroos at the AFL draft combine in 2012 when he showed outstanding athleticism and speed. After playing the first nine games in the development league this season, Wallace has put together four consecutive senior games for the Tigers and is starting to make his mark. “He’s improved a lot,” said Lamont, who has observed Wallace’s AFL journey from the day he walked into North Melbourne. “This is his
third year and he’s come on in an enormous way.” If Wallace does go on to make it to the AFL, he would not be the first American to do so. Don Pyke, a two-time West Coast premiership player, and Sanford Wheeler, a former Sydney player, blazed that trail in the 1990s. Lance Jenkinson

Australian rules football clubs are casting their nets wider than ever in search of talent. The game has grown immensely in the past decade from a multicultural standpoint and its overseas advance is growing by the year. The game’s evolution took another significant step on Saturday when the Werribee Tigers and Sandringham Zebras had opposing international ruckmen in the VFL – both from the US. Eric Wallace had the big-man duties for the Tigers, with Jason Holmes taking him on in a Zebras jumper. Tigers coach John Lamont told Star Weekly he could not have envisaged such a duel not so long ago. “In terms of the game’s development, it was a pretty big thing,” he said.

MOTOR Kit, colours a Fabia combination “All things bright and beautiful” can imply twee but in the case of the new Skoda Fabia it conveys a measure of style and substance. In a bid to attract buyers who like to stand out from the crowd, the Czech car maker has gone to some lengths to offer kit and colours to do just that. With a $15,999 entry level price, there is plenty of room to make an automotive statement without flooding the bank with red. But that is only part of the story. As well as a long shopping list of options, the new Fabia, which comes as a hatchback and wagon, features a choice of two efficient petrol engines and an eye-watering range of in-car technology in the form of front assist with city emergency brake, plus smartlink smartphone connectivity including Apple carplay and Android auto and rear-parking sensors. A 1.2-litre 66TSI engine is mated with a five-speed manual transmission, while a similar-sized higher output 81TSI petrol engine is paired with a seven-speed DSG transmission. Both come up with claimed 4.8 litres per 100 kilometres fuel economy thanks to a start /stop system and brake energy recuperation. They have a Euro 6 emission rating. Both hatch and wagon exhibit the latest Skoda design thinking that debuted in the new Octavia, with the compact Fabia reaching new heights in cargo carrying capacity – 1125 litres of storage space with the rear seat backs folded for the hatch, and 1370 litres for the wagon – and leaving many sports utility vehicles

lagging. Top of the class in European NCAP crash tests, the new Fabia is fitted standard with the latest technology in front assist with the city emergency braking function across the range. The system uses a radar sensor to continually
measure the distance to traffic ahead. Whenever the distance is too small, front assist goes to work with audio and visual warnings followed by automatic emergency stopping when necessary. While the third generation Skoda Fabia

announces its arrival with sporty proportions, it is the capacity for owners to put their own stamp on the vehicle through many sharp colours and unique features that will attract many buyers. It can be customised inside and out. With the colour concept option, customers can choose between four colours – silver, white, black or red – for the roof, including A-pillars, mirror housings and 16-inch alloy wheels. Six body colours are available, including standard candy white and corrida red; and metallic race blue, magic black, quartz grey and moon white. A vibrant sprint yellow and rally green metallic are available through colour concept. A bespoke interior of quality fit and finish can call on an array of colours and their combinations. The Bolero infotainment system has a sharp 6.5-inch TFT colour display and a touchscreen, while six speakers deliver clear, balanced audio reproduction. As well as front assist with integrated city emergency brake function, the new Fabia features the third generation of multi-collision brake system, which reduces the risk of the vehicle becoming involved in a subsequent collision following an accident. The new Fabia is a neat compact car at a competitive entry-level price with the capacity to spec it up to suit individual owners with a range of packages. A range of warranty packages are also available. Details: www.skoda.com.au

Great sports car fun to a tee The recent introduction of the third generation Audi TT coupe and the imminent arrival of the open-top roadster has created quite a stir of publicity about the seriously stylish sports car. Quite a few trade-ins are already appearing in used-car yards so here are some hints, tips and historical info to help you get yourself into a terrific TT. Audi TT is great fun to drive but the front-drive models feel more like a warm-to-hot hatch than a full-on sports car – not surprising because underneath that gorgeous Audi skin there’s a Volkswagen Golf GTI. Introduced to Australia in May, 1999, the Audi TT was a hit right from the start, chiefly because of its radical shape. It was originally sold only as a coupe – potential buyers were forced to wait another year for the roadster. The fascinating domed theme of the body carries through to the cabin. Big circular dials and ventilation outlets really look the part. Later models had modified suspension and a rear wing to push the tail to the road at speed. The latter spoils the purity of the visual effect to my way of thinking. There were suggestions that a lift-up wing in the manner of a Porsche 911 would have been a better fix but Audi says this could have been too expensive. The gen-two Audi TT, which arrived in Australia in November, 2006, sorted out the problem. It has a rear wing that’s hidden at lower speeds and raised at “moderate speeds” above 120km/h. The original Audi TT was offered with 1.8-litre four-cylinder engines, in either light-pressure or high-pressure turbocharged format, the latter coming with the traction advantage of quattro all-wheel drive. The capacity of the four-cylinder unit was increased

to 2.0 litres using a turbocharger with the second generation TT. In December, 2004, a 3.2-litre V6 was shoehorned under the bonnet of the Audi TT coupe but not the roadster. Sensibly, the TT 3.2 also received the quattro system. As Audi regarded the TT as being a pure sports car, no automatic transmission was offered until March, 2003, when a six-speed torque-converter auto was offered with the low-pressure engines. Audi TT is a high-tech car and should only
What to look for • Look for signs of previous crash repairs. A ripply finish in any of the panels, or a mismatch in paint colour from one section to the other are fairly easy to spot.
• Look at the floor of a roadster for signs of water entry. If there’s the slightest cause for concern, get permission from the seller to lift the carpets. • Check the roadster’s roof seals correctly when it is closed and that it doesn’t have any tears or cuts, especially around the stitching. • Gear changes should be reasonably light but remember the gearbox is a long way from the shift lever, with a multitude of links connecting the two. This can give it a slightly spongy feel.
