Picnic spot’s cool for kids Werribee Park was a popular destination at the weekend as a big crowd moved in for the annual Children’s Week Picnic. Popular attractions included a toy swap, rides on a trackless train and a giant inflatable jungle maze. Children took part in cooking classes and sports activities, and built small “cities” using recycled materials. Popular performers including the Cat in the Hat, Mudcakes and The Kazoos took to the stage to entertain the kids, while roaming performers included Tubby the Robot, Gemma Giraffe and the Litter Sisters. Presented by Wyndham council, backed by the state government, the event celebrated the passing of 25 years since Australia signed the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child.

Council in snake backflip By Charlene Macaulay Wyndham council will cover the costs of household snake removals until September, 2017 after a public backlash to its decision to scrap its in-house service. The council voted unanimously on Monday night to pass a motion by Cr Heather Marcus to extend a council-funded professional snake catcher’s employment for the next two years. The ongoing future of the service will be reviewed after September 2017.
Earlier this year, the council voted to scrap its existing in-house snake removal service from September and hire a professional catcher for one year before reverting to a user pays system from September 2016. Following that, residents were expected to fork out an average call-out fee of $150 to locate and remove a snake from their property. At the time, furious residents called on the council to reverse its decision and lodged a petition of more than 900 signatures with the council last month. That petition has since grown to more than 1460 signatures.
A council report found that requests to remove snakes from private properties had risen by 42 per cent from 115 during the 2012-13 snake season (from early spring) to 163 during 2013-14. The report attributed the rise to new housing estates encroaching on snake habitats and the creation of lakes near residential developments. Cr Marcus said the safety of residents, children and pets was paramount. “This is a safety issue we need to address; this is a service that we need to keep,” Cr Marcus said this week.

“Money should not come into this decision.” Fellow councillor Bob Fairclough said a council report showed a high level of dissatisfaction with the council’s previous in-house snake removal service. As many as 80 per cent of residents were unimpressed with the in-house service because council officers did not provide a “search and removal” service if the snake could not be located, he pointed out. “I think it’s a big improvement by getting the snake catcher to attend more of these instances,” Cr Fairclough said.

Pictures shame carpark cheats By Adem Saban Frustrated Wyndham residents are going online to shame drivers who park illegally in carpark spaces meant for disabled people. They are posting pictures on the Facebook page ‘Wyndham Disability Parking Wall of Shame’, showing cars without permits parked in spaces dedicated to disabled drivers. The cars’ number plates are clearly visible. One Wyndham resident, who asked not to be named, said she recently saw a furniture
truck offending, but after reporting the incident to Wyndham council she was told nothing could be done because it was in a private carpark. “I was told that because it wasn’t a council-owned carpark, not much could be done,” she said. “It’s irritating that these people can just park there when they clearly have no disability or permit. “People like me, who actually need these car spaces, have to walk further because of
‘‘
People who actually need these spaces have to - Angry driver walk further
’’
their laziness. It happens all the time.” Wyndham chief executive, Kelly Grigsby, said staff enforced parking rules in disabled spaces on council land and within private carparks that had agreements with council.
“People found to be illegally parking in disabled spaces may receive a $152 infringement notice,” she said. “On private land, landowners can seek the assistance of Victoria Police to ensure people are parking according to restrictions.” Senior Constable Josh Stolk, of the Wyndham highway patrol, said monitoring parking permits was not a large part of the job, but Victoria Police did issue fines of $152 if a vehicle was found to be parked without a permit.

Sister act in line for world award A Point Cook business is in the running to be named best family entertainment centre in the world. Wyncity Bowl and Entertainment complex is one of three businesses globally – excluding the US – vying for the ‘best family entertainment centre worldwide’ award, the winner to be announced at an International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions trade show in Orlando, Florida, next month. Wyncity is up against Turkey’s Kidzania and New Zealand’s Rainbow’s End attractions. Managing director Edi De Pellegrin, who
runs the Point Cook business with her sisters, Doriana Porto, Tania De Grandis and Julianne Morrow, said the family was thrilled to be considered among the world’s best. “I never thought we’d have the opportunity to get to the finals and the fact we have is a testament to just how hard we work here,” Ms De Pellegrin said. Her parents opened Wyncity as a bowling centre in Werribee in the mid-1980s. When the four sisters took over, they introduced a restaurant, bumper cars and other attractions, and two years ago they moved to
a bigger, purpose-built Point Cook location, which also offers laser tag, mini-golf and arcade games. Ms De Pellegrin said the family was looking at taking over an existing bowling centre in the Latrobe Valley and turning it into another family entertainment centre. “We’d like to open a number of them across Victoria over the next five years – some larger, some smaller, depending on the town and what we can fit in,” she said.
A fatal collision blocked traffic for several hours in Point Cook last week. A tip truck and car collided at the Hacketts Road and Sneyedes Road intersection just before 1.30pm last Thursday. A passenger in the car died at the scene. The car’s driver and another passenger were both transported to the Royal Melbourne Hospital. The driver suffered serious injuries and was yesterday still in hospital. The passenger sustained lifethreatening injuries. Police said they remained in a serious but stable condition. The driver of the truck was assessed by paramedics at the scene, but did not require hospitalisation. Wyndham highway patrol’s Sergeant Aaron Prentice-Evans said investigations were continuing. He said the cause of the accident was not expected to be known for some time. A spokesman for Point Cook CFA said 16 CFA members attended the crash. Tankers and pumpers from Point Cook, Werribee and Hoppers Crossing responded. “It may seem clichéd, but this was one of those instances where all emergency services – police, ambulance and CFA – worked really well together,” the spokesman said. Anybody with information about the incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Adem Saban

New road on old journey A food van with a long history in the northern suburbs now calls Werribee home. Tony’s Highway Takeaway set up shop along Railway Avenue more than two months ago, selling coffee, burgers, hot dogs, jam donuts and other hot food. Tony Laro, the man behind the business, has spent most of his working life on food vans, starting his first stationary version at the tender age of 11. Tony’s Highway Takeaway spent 15 years stationed at a roadside truck stop on the Hume Highway near Wallan but was pushed off the site four years ago after McDonald’s and a BP service station set up at the rest stop. Despite mounting an $85,000 legal battle to stay put, and challenging Mitchell council with a 10,000-signature petition, Mr Laro was forced to pack up and move on. The Craigieburn resident chose to relocate the business to
Werribee, to work alongside his brother, who then lived at Hoppers Crossing. But their best laid plans couldn’t anticipate his brother’s illness and subsequent death 10 months ago, which left Mr Laro to run the business on his own. “I thought this would be a good place for people to pull up and get food without interfering with other cars.� Mr Laro said he was amused by the rising popularity of food vans. “I believe a lot of people think they’re going to make it overnight then try to cut quality,� he said. “I enjoy it – it keeps my mind active.�

Manor Lakes close to promotion By Charlene Macaulay Manor Lakes is one step closer to officially becoming a suburb after Wyndham council approved proposed boundaries. On Monday night, councillors endorsed the proposed new boundaries, including the extension of Manor Lakes estate boundary to the Quandong border. Under the plans, the new suburb’s boundary would run from the junction of the north-east corner of Quandong and along Ballan Road in a south-easterly direction. The boundary would then run south, bisecting Hindmarsh Drive,
and continue westerly along Greens Road then Argoona Road to the south-east corner of the Quandong boundary. The proposed boundaries will be open for public consultation for 30 days and will need to be approved by council before going to the Office of Geographic Names for gazetting and registration. Cr Heather Marcus congratulated Manor Lakes residents on their tireless campaign to turn the estate into a suburb, but fellow councillor Glenn Goodfellow cautioned residents in other estates against trying to do the same.
‘‘
I want to put a word of caution out there for future - Glenn Goodfellow ones
’’
“I just hope that by supporting this we don’t set a precedent for further areas to become their own locality,â€? Cr Goodfellow said. “I understand why with Manor Lakes, and I support that, but there needs to be a little common sense ‌ I want to put a word of caution out there for future ones that are coming before the council.â€?
Cr Goodfellow’s comments come a fortnight after Sanctuary Lakes residents reignited their campaign to turn their estate into a suburb. Residents began circulating a petition earlier this month calling on Wyndham council and the state government to recognise Sanctuary Lakes as a suburb in its own right rather than as an estate within Point Cook. Sanctuary Lakes Resort chairman John Anderson said he was keen to obtain more than 1000 signatures before taking the petition to both the council and state government.

House prices ‘back from dead’ By Charlene Macaulay Hoppers Crossing is enjoying a renaissance as house buyers flock to the established suburb in droves. The suburb’s median price jumped 6.4 per cent in the September quarter to a record $370,000. Barry Plant Werribee director Donald McKillop said it was currently taking only about two weeks to sell Hoppers Crossing properties, with the Mossfiel estate particularly popular. “It has come back from the dead,” he said. “I don’t know if the Pacific Werribee
redevelopment has done the trick, but it’s one of those little pockets between Tarneit and Werribee that’s central to everything. “It’s having a bit of a renaissance at the moment.” Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV) figures also reveal that Truganina properties enjoyed a 9.7 per cent price increase in the September quarter, making it one of the top 20 best-performing suburbs in Melbourne. Seven prospective buyers camped overnight recently to buy one of 10 new townhouses at Truganina’s Forsyth Park estate. Meanwhile, Tarneit’s median house price increased by 4.3 per cent over the quarter,
‘‘
It’s having a bit of a renaissance at the - Donald McKillop moment
’’
Werribee properties rose 3.2 per cent and Point Cook and Wyndham Vale fell slightly. The data for Williams Landing is considered unreliable as there were fewer than 30 sales for the September quarter. Mr McKillop expects the Wyndham property market to remain buoyant for the rest of the year and into the first quarter of 2016.
“These are the cheapest finance rates in decades and even if the Reserve Bank puts up interest rates, even if it goes up another percentage point, I can’t see it slowing down the market because it’s still affordable,” Mr McKillop said. REIV chief executive Enzo Raimondo said the Melbourne property market had experienced one of the strongest starts on record to the traditional spring selling season. “This level of growth indicates a high level of buyer confidence, with sellers benefiting from high auction numbers, solid clearance rates and low interest rates,” he said.
All’s fair at the Mercy Werribee Mercy Hospital turned 21 last week, celebrating with its annual community fair on Sunday. Mercy Health’s health services chief executive, Linda Mellors, said the fair was also held to thank hospital staff and the Wyndham community for their “unwavering support”. “The fair included entertainment, rides, a jumping castle, show bags and a variety of stalls selling arts and crafts, children’s toys, jewellery, homewares, and sweet treats,” she said. “Community radio station WynFM broadcast live from the fair and created a great atmosphere for everyone there and people listening at home.” Dr Mellors said the event was well attended by families and staff members.

M
y generation has a tendency to long for things from the past and cop a fair bit of criticism for it, most of which I think is misguided. Who wouldn’t like to be able to play kick-to-kick or a cricket match in the street like we used to? Long before gazetted 40km/h zones, drivers (aka dads of the kids playing) knew where the games were on and slowed down so you could get the rubbish bin or vegie box out of harm’s way, mainly because they’d have to replace them. Those wooden vegie boxes and tin rubbish bins could do some serious damage to cars! This week I noted the return of the Polly Waffle chocolate bar under a new name and wondered what else we’d like to come back. I posted this on Facebook and the reaction was unbelievable. Do you remember Choo Choo bars? I loved them and I’m sure all today’s dentists would love to see them back, along with Redskins and White Knights. Others mentioned included Curly Wurlys, Toobs (Shane Warne’s favourite I believe), Mates, Paw Print Paddle Pops, Barney Bananas, Triple

got some interesting reaction to last week’s piece on tattoos. I was accused of being part of the nanny state and of being old fashioned and then, from the other side, there was overwhelming support that tattoos and, for many, body and face-piercing, were a trendy statement that many would regret in the future. Some readers were passionate that tattoos were their way of expressing different events in their lives and making statements about who they are. I don’t have a problem with any of that. All I say is that it’s not for me and you can do whatever you like. To each his own: an old expression that shouldn’t be lost because it’s now more appropriate than ever. ■

Residents damn creek works By Adem Saban A residents group claims a developer who temporarily dammed Skeleton Creek to create a sewerage connection has left the area a muddy mess. Friends of Skeleton Creek spokesman John Dawes said group members recently inspected the site, two months after a temporary soil and rock causeway was removed, and found damage done by earth-moving equipment was still there.
The creek was dammed by Hallmarc, the developers of Waterhaven Estate in Point Cook, to create a sewerage connection from the estate to the northern side of the creek. “The sediment trap was still in place [when the site was inspected],” Mr Dawes said. “Yet the water downstream was a distinctive browner colour, with an assortment of soil sediment and plant-based flotsam moving around and up against the creek banks. “Some native vegetation had to be moved to higher ground to protect it from being

inundated by rising upstream water caused by the damming and heavy rainfall.” Mr Dawes again expressed disappointment his group and local residents were not notified or consulted before the damming was done.
Hallmarc had not responded to a request for comment by the time Star Weekly went to press. But a Melbourne Water spokeswoman said Hallmarc was responsible for rehabilitating the site, in collaboration with Wyndham council which owns the land, and Melbourne Water, which manages the waterway. “Melbourne Water will continue to work with the developer, council and Friends of Skeleton Creek to ensure the waterway is returned to its previous state,” she said.
Open door lights the way Opening up her home to people in need is nothing strange to Janine Hay. The Hoppers Crossing resident took in other people’s children, and sat them down at the kitchen table with her own two, for years. Then, one day, her son brought home a friend who didn’t have anywhere to go. This boy lived with the Hay family for 11 months. So it seemed only natural that Ms Hay become a foster carer when the chance arose two years ago. So far, Ms Hay has had about 18 kids come through her doors – some that have stayed for as little as an hour, and others who have stayed as long as 20 months. “Recently, I got a text from one of the kids we had for one weekend a month, saying thank-you for everything we had done, and that he had grown into the person he was today because of us,” she said. “That’s so nice to hear, out of the blue. It’s nice when you can continue the relationship
after they’ve left. That’s the most rewarding part. “When they’re learning new skills that they’ve never learnt before – whether it’s holding a knife and fork, or they’re pleased with their results at school – that’s a highlight.” Ms Hay works with Bridges Foster Care, and believes most people can be foster parents. “You don’t foster for the gratitude, you do it because you want to do it, and you’ve got a lot to give.” Bridges Foster Care is on the lookout for more foster carers. If you’re interested in helping call the team on 9742 6452 or send an email to reception@wsh.org.au Charlene Macaulay

The added numbers mean the urology team can provide a 24-hour service to patients presenting at the emergency department. “I look forward to serving the Wyndham community and, in time, providing a full service with all modern urological techniques and conditions treated at Werribee Mercy Hospital,” Mr Kearsley said.

Work on an $87 million alternative route for Wyndham Vale residents travelling to and from the Princes Highway is tipped to begin in the next financial year. Wyndham council chief executive Kelly Grigsby says the first stage of the Ison and Armstrong roads connection is expected to start in 2016-17 and be completed by 2020. The connection will extend Armstrong Road from Greens Road to Black Forest Road and link it with Ison Road. “The plans for the construction of Ison Road from the Western interchange, north to the intersection with Armstrong Road, include an overpass of the Melbourne-Geelong railway,” Ms Grigsby said. Plans for the road connection were first released in June 2013, in a strategy for managing growth in Wyndham. Ms Grigsby said the council was working with Lend Lease, the Metropolitan Planning Authority and state government to secure funding for the project. “Wyndham city is . . . ensuring infrastructure backlogs associated with residential growth are met,” she said. The state government has already committed $27 million for the railway overpass.

Suburb gets its first ‘high-rise’ By Adem Saban As the population of Melbourne’s western suburbs continues to soar, Williams Landing is to get its first high-rise apartment block. Work has started on Newton apartments, a four-storey development with 57 one and two-bedroom units, on the site of the former Laverton RAAF base. Patrick Archer, a director of project developer Cedar Woods, said there was a
demand for multi-residential buildings in the western suburbs. “There have already been plenty of registrations of interest and we’re confident there will be a lot more,” he said. Mr Archer said the Newton apartments would be an alternative for singles or couples looking to purchase in the western suburbs. And he said there had already been some international interest in the apartments. While their price has not yet been set, Mr
Archer said they would be more affordable than house and land in the area. They are expected to be completed by early 2017. The Williams Landing apartment development won’t be alone in Wyndham. A 27-home development is currently under construction in Point Cook, as is a five-storey building with 26 apartments in Werribee’s Watton Street. Wyndham chief executive Kelly Grigsby said the council had recently prepared a
Housing and Neighbourhood Character Strategy providing a 20-year plan for managing growth in the municipality. “The strategy identifies those areas that are most appropriate for higher-density development, such as apartments, with good access to services and public transport,” she said. “The strategy also encourages a diversity of housing types to cater for the different housing needs of our community.”
Cubs keep us waiting

You’ll have to wait a few more weeks before you can visit the latest additions to Werribee Open Range Zoo. The three African lion cubs were born in the early hours of Tuesday morning, the first litter for mother Nilo and father Johari. They are also the first lions born at Werribee Zoo. Nilo and her cubs are currently off display in a special birthing den, with vets and keepers monitoring them closely via a video camera link. General manager of Life Sciences Russel Traher said it was important that Nilo had the privacy to bond with her cubs and use her natural mothering instincts. “Video monitoring is really important in allowing us to take a hands-off approach while keeping a close eye on the health of mother and cubs,” Mr Traher said. It will be several weeks before vets can weigh and determine the sex of the cubs. When all that’s done, the cubs should be ready to meet the public for the first time. Charlene Macaulay

A 24-hour cycling event has raised nearly $12,000 for Cancer Council Victoria. Eight teams jumped on spin bikes at In Balance Fitness in Werribee at 5pm on October 16, and spent the next 24 hours riding for charity, raising $11,843. The winning team, K04, raised $5088 alone. Group exercise co-ordinator Michelle McDonald (pictured, front) said the gym was thrilled with the effort and may turn the fundraiser into an annual event. “It was phenomenal,” Ms McDonald said. “We have been blown away by the total raised. “We were thinking $2000 or $3000 would have been brilliant. “The weekend was tough, but good fun.

Council no fan of ‘rate cap’ bill By Adem Saban A bill to cap council rate increases at the consumer price index is before State Parliament, and Wyndham council is not impressed. The state government is proposing to amend the Local Government Act to empower the local government minister to impose a cap on rate rises. Any council seeking to increase rates beyond the cap would have to apply to the Essential
Services Commission for special consideration. Werribee MP Tim Pallas said the bill would also give the commission oversight of council spending to ensure ongoing compliance and enable it to monitor overall outcomes for communities. Earlier this year, the government asked the commission to develop a framework to cap council rate rises. The commission consulted with councils and communities across the state in order to develop the framework.
“I’ve heard loud and clear that local residents expect greater accountability, a greater say and greater value for money,” Mr Pallas said. “And that’s what the Fair Go Rates system will deliver.” But Wyndham council chief executive Kelly Grigsby has made clear the council’s opposition to the rate cap. “It is disappointing this process has not taken account of the continued cost shifting and erosion of grants from state and federal governments,” she said, adding
the council supported better community engagement in the budget-setting process. But, she said, capping rates “does not reflect the impacts of rapid residential growth on municipalities such as Wyndham”. Ms Grigsby said the council would continue to scrutinise its operations for efficiencies and increase its community engagement via initiatives such as community panels. Mr Pallas said the rate capping would start in the 2016-17 financial year.
Pacific Werribee, once known as Werribee Plaza, has turned 30. The centre has undergone a raft of changes since opening in 1985, and the final stage of a mammoth $370 million redevelopment is well under way. Hoppers Crossing resident Les Porter has frequented the centre for three decades in his work with the Salvation Army. Mr Porter says he remembers when the centre was much smaller. “It was just virtually the front section and the other end, where Big W is, wasn’t there,” he says. “Where the back part is now, they used to have the circus out there on vacant land. The variety of stores there now means there’s no need to travel anywhere else.” See a showcase of the changes over the past 30 years at www.starweekly.com.au

Caleb Haines is enjoying a taste of university life. (Supplied)
Uni’s try-it-and-see plan A Victoria University program is giving year 12 students across the west their first taste of university life. Students from 10 high schools have taken part this year in the Early Uni Pathways program, which allows VCE students the chance to complete two first-year university units for VCE credit and guaranteed entry to Victoria University after they graduate from high school. Unlike universities that target only academic high achievers for their early-entry programs, VU is also keen to take on students who may not have originally considered going to university. Program manager Jacinta Richards said VU was keen to make the transition from high school to university more achievable.
“If they get to know what a uni is like, they’re in a better position to make those choices.� Manor Lakes Secondary College students Caleb Haines and Kayla Davis – the only high school students in the state studying university-level paramedical science – believe the program is a great way to fast-track their careers. Caleb, who has attended the St Albans campus this year while completing year 12, said he found the experience interesting. “The course is pretty complex, but the tutorials and lectures are good and they help to break down all the content,� he said.
Frustrated by increasing reports of family violence in Victoria’s Indian community, Tarneit’s Jasvinder Sidhu decided enough was enough. In 2012 he formed Jagriti, a network of agencies, services and individuals providing what he says are “culturally appropriate� responses to family violence in the Australian-Indian community. The network helps women and children needing financial help through funds raised at the Tarneit Sikh Temple. Mr Sidhu believes existing solutions offered for Indian victims of family violence have repeatedly failed, and will continue to fail. He said Jagriti aimed to provide immediate support and counselling for Indian women, to create awareness among migrant victims about their rights in Australia It also planned to develop social awareness through events, media and research. Mr Sidhu said Jagriti was now offering advocacy support to clients in their dealings with community agencies and services, and acting as a liaison and referral source for clients to appropriate helping agencies. To date, Jagriti had helped more than 100 females and 20 males by raising funds for them and providing basic guidance, Mr Sidhu said. “Unless solutions of social problems are culturally appropriate, they will not work.� Details: http://on.fb.me/1RwqPoq Adem Saban

Welcome mat at mosque A Wyndham mosque will open its doors this weekend to help the wider community better understand Islam and its traditions. Virgin Mary Mosque in Hoppers Crossing will join in National Mosque Open Day, which promotes the objective of “living safely together�. Mosque vice-president Rifai Abdul Raheem outlined the goals of the open day. “The first is to educate the wider community on who is Muslim, and what Islam is. “Secondly, we aim to bring the community’s focus to Islam, even for just a day. We also want to break down stereotypes, connect the Muslim and non-Muslim communities and work together through the event.� Imam Mohamadu Saleem said the open day would provide a friendly platform for visitors

to talk to members of the mosque directly and see that stereotypes associated with Islam were untrue. “There are no hidden chambers here in our mosque. We don’t teach bad things; come and see it for yourself,� he said. “We’ll have books displayed here; we’ll also have the imams on site, open for a chat. Come and learn about Islam from its origin – not the sensationalised version of our religion that’s in the mainstream media. We are not a violent or radical people.� Imam Saleem said the mosque welcomed people of all cultures and backgrounds. The open day, this Saturday from 10am to 4pm, offers mosque tours, activities for children, a question and answer forum with young Muslim lawyers, and a free barbecue.

Tyre crew counts cost of dumping
Werribee South market gardening is under threat, a vegetable grower says. (iStock)
Irrigation update urged The irrigation of market garden areas in Werribee South and Bacchus Marsh needs drastic changes – and they need to happen quickly. That’s the verdict of a managing director of a Werribee South-based vegetable supplier. John Said, of Fresh Select, said the irrigation infrastructure was antiquated and ineffective, and failing to upgrade from concrete channels to pipes meant farmers would soon have to stop planting. “The irrigation system infrastructure needs to be upgraded to some sort of piped system so we don’t lose water,” Mr Said said. “If nothing is done and the status quo remains, large farmers will be forced to scale down, family operations will scale down.”
Lalor MP Joanne Ryan echoed Mr Said’s sentiments, calling on the federal government to contribute financially to an irrigation upgrade. “Werribee South is an agricultural area of national significance, producing 75 per cent of Australia’s lettuce, broccoli and cauliflower,” she said. Ms Ryan said it would cost about $34 million to introduce a piping system. A spokesman for federal Agriculture Minister Barnaby Joyce did not answer Star Weekly’s specific questions regarding an upgrade, instead saying the government was investing $2.5 million a day in water infrastructure programs.

A Hoppers Crossing tyre retailer will be forced to pay more than $4000 in fines and clean-up costs after dumping tyres near Campbells Cove beach. Pana’s Performance Wheels and Tyres has been issued with a $2500 fine from Wyndham council and ordered to pay $1889 to cover the cost of cleaning up as well as additional court costs for the dumping hearing. Wyndham mayor Peter Maynard said it was the council’s fifth successful prosecution for illegal dumping this year. “Illegally dumping rubbish costs the ratepayers over $1 million each year, not to mention the negative impacts on the environment and local amenity,” he said. Cr Maynard said many of the items illegally dumped could be taken to a tip for free. He encouraged residents to continue to collect key evidence when reporting illegal dumping, including location, date, time, items dumped, vehicle used and number plate details. “This information is invaluable when conducting an investigation and subsequent court case,” Cr Maynard said.

YOUR SAY Adoption stance is insulting
As a mother of two aged 40-plus gay sons, both of whom are in long-term stable relationships, I find MPs Bernie Finn’s & Dr Carling-Jenkins’ opposition to same-sex adoption insulting to gay members of our community. They must belong to that minority group who still imagine gays live each day as if it were Mardi Gras and spend their evenings slinking around the city in search of a night of depravity. The truth is, most gays seem to live in the suburbs, particularly couples who, like Mr Kennedy and Mr Mahfoud of Hoppers Crossing [Star Star Weekly Weekly, October 14] lead an ordinary, fairly unexciting existence. Maybe some people would be surprised to know that gay couples often work locally, shop in the supermarket, cook, clean the house and mow the lawn on Sundays and spend the rest of the weekend entertaining or visiting family or friends, going to a movie, an art exhibition or the football, like any of their neighbours. We never will know the outcome of our parenting until it is done, and that applies to all of us who have children. What the child needs most is to be wanted by somebody. Wendy Smith, Werribee

understand why people think they have the right to force their views on others. If you teach your children to value their bodies and that with time tastes can change, then hopefully they will make the right decision for themselves. My first tattoo was at 26 and I have no regrets and want more of them. Wendy Grima, via web
Council decision lacks respect
[Re: It’s council business, not ours ..., Star Weekly Weekly, October 21] As a resident, I am greatly offended by these statements: “The documents show possibilities ... likely to lead to inaccurate assumptions and promote divisive debate in the community.” Too late, the simple fact that they [council] refuse to release the information is extremely divisive because it says to residents: “We have something to hide from you, we refuse to be transparent, we don’t respect your right to know how your rates are spent by us, we don’t answer to you”. Unacceptable! Michael Young, via web

MY WYNDHAM As unit controller for Wyndham SES, Laurie Russell has a cool head in a crisis. The 72-year-old Werribee resident tells Charlene Macaulay about memorable call-outs and his new-found passion for cruising. (Damjan Janevski)
What’s your connection to the Wyndham area? I came here in 1977, we lived in the Dandenongs, in a town called Upwey, prior to that. I brought my wife and four kids down here to take up a job with the then Shire of Werribee as a parks superintendent. The job was full of challenges on a daily basis, and I tend to thrive on a challenge. When I first came here, my job description was to manage parks and reserves for a population of 18,900 people. Now, there are more than the number of people in Wyndham Vale itself. I retired a while ago. What do you like about living in Werribee? When we left Upwey, we were given a big send-off by the fire brigade and the remark was made to us that we’d be back - but we’ve had no ambition to go back. Being part of this community, and seeing it evolve around us, is a good feeling. You’re a founding member of Wyndham State Emergency Service (SES) - why did you put your hand up for the job? years, and I’m also on the board of directors of the SES. Tell me about some of the more memorable call-outs you’ve had through Wyndham SES. The call-outs that stick in your mind is the ones you do for the people who need you the most,
and they are normally the elderly. They will go out of their way to make sure that they say thanks in their own particular way. What other hobbies do you have? My wife and I over the last few years have got a passion for cruising. We’ve been on six so far,
we try to do one a year. I’ve got nine grandchildren and five greatgrandchildren, and they keep my occupied. I think in this day and age, you learn from your grandkids - you try to direct them, but you learn from them too just by talking and listening. We’ve got an extremely close-knit family.

The state government at the time was on a push to increase the SES units across the state, and the then Shire of Werribee was looked at as being an area that needed an SES unit. Both Gerald Greenwood, who was the original unit controller, and myself, worked for the council and were basically directed to start it up by our great friend, the late John Nicol. I have been unit controller for more than 20

Demands for a bridge to replace the Cottrell Street ford are mounting following the tragic drowning of a young Werribee boy last Wednesday. However, estimates of such a bridge have been placed as high as $700,000 which council would have to bear alone.
Prime Minister Bob Hawke has the power to turn the ageing Hercules parked at the Laverton RAAF base into a mini airforce for the UN in Africa. Boomtown Rats singer and Live Aid organiser Bob Geldof is the man who could persuade him to do it.
Werribee Football Club will fight the Victorian State Football League decision to expel the Tigers from its state-wide competition next year. The club has urged Wyndham residents to attend a rally at Chirnside Park on Friday night in a bid to convince the VSFL to reverse its decision.
The last thing Glenn Bunker remembers before waking up in a hospital bed with multiple head fractures is someone yelling out to him. The 30-year-old Werribee father of three has spent the past seven days piecing together his memory of a vicious assault on the night of Tuesday last week.

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir finds a Sri Lankan makeover of a fast food joint FUSION CEYLON Address: 27 Watton Street, Werribee. Phone: 9741 9656 It’s all good – the rice is packed with finely diced vegetables and chicken chunks, and the gooey fried egg sitting atop is just right, as is the nicely-charred chicken drumstick. Prawn crackers are, as always, unnecessary. The same vegie mix is found on the noodles kothu ($10), which is on the specials list. As with the more traditional roti kothu, in which roti is finely chopped with the other ingredients, here the noodles get the chop treatment. And, instead of chicken or pork, mine is served with lingu – house-made SL sausages that draw on a Dutch heritage. Chiran and Isuru make them with chicken or pork, vinegar, cumin, cardamom, nutmeg, pandan leaf and curry leaf. There’s one snag on top of my kothu and pieces mingled in, a distinctive and quite tangy sausage, not in the least confronting. The kothu noodles are served with what I’m told is a “mixed meat gravy”, for adding as I eat. It’s very nice and tasty.

TIRAMISU
NOODLES KOTHU 10003212-28-a14May©MMP
1143763-PB28-14
Sri Lankan tiramisu? What might that look and taste like? Basically, it’s a regular tiramisu configuration, just made with sweet Sri Lankan coffee, spiced with cumin and cardamom, the usual sponge fingers joined by gingernut biscuits, then topped with cashews and chewy praline. The textures are pretty much pure tiramisu, but the flavours are musty, mysterious and magical – not overly sweet and actually nicely on the bitter side. It’s the creation of co-proprietors and co-cooks Isuru Madusanka and Chiran Hemadas at their new baby, Fusion Ceylon. CTS has been to 27 Watton Street before, when it combined SL food with burgers, fish ‘n’ chips and the like. After that, before Isuru and Chiran arrived, it reverted to strictly fast-food under different management. The place still bears hallmarks of its fast-food heritage, but now there’s some nice wooden furniture that gives the place a sweet cafe vibe. These two blokes have background – many years between them working in top-shelf hotels – and they cleverly match the cooking of their SL culture with approaches a little more edgy. Their menu is short, but full of intrigue and of low prices. We choose some humble dishes for our first visit, and are very satisfied. Nasi goreng a la Ceylon ($13) seems not much different from regular versions, though Chiran tells me the spicing is not the same, and they use basmati rice instead of jasmine.

A brand built on doing the best job A
drian Williams is a very focused kind of man. When he started with Godings – a landmark establishment on the Western Highway for the past 38 years – he spent lots of time learning his products, and even more time building a successful operation. That eight-year focus paid off. Adrian is now the new owner and group manager of Godings, and has a lot of confidence in where the business is heading. “I was, and am, committed to continuing our longstanding association with Kubota, the best machinery brand around,” says Adrian. “I want the name Kubota to spring to mind when people are looking to purchase the right bit of equipment for their needs. “Another confidence-builder is the team I have around me. Most stayed when I took over, and they’re very happy with the change. And they have such a good understanding of the local market, with most of them living locally as well. “We’re a small family operation, with an emphasis on customer service and, because I’m here every day, they have an immediate contact point, which enables us to respond quickly.” The Kubota label appears on most of the product range – excavators, compact track loaders, tractors, utility vehicles, mowers, generators and grounds-care equipment. Excavator buckets and attachments (including auger drive units), and a range of small-line implements from manufacturers such as Berti, Landpride, John Berends, Kanga, Silvan, Digga, Augertorque, are also in stock. “We’re planning to consolidate our relatively new excavator line, an important

There’s nothing better than, say, a plumber who’s just got his first new machine, and seeing him down
the track when he’s enthusiastically telling us how it’s significantly improved efficiency. “Or it might be a lifestyle customer, who might have just bought their first dream hobby farm, has never operated a tractor and can’t get the smile off their face the first time they slash a paddock.” This very focused man intends Godings to be the tractor and excavator destination of
choice … and all the right elements are in place to make sure Godings is exactly that place. Godings, 2129 Western Highway, Rockbank. Opens 8am-5pm Monday-Friday and 8am-noon Saturday. Inquiries: 9747 1359 or rockbank@godings.com.au

Taking action for mums and bubs L
ast month, Dr Rachel Carling-Jenkins MP succeeded in her push to establish a Victorian parliamentary inquiry into the current situation relating to the health, care and wellbeing of mothers and babies in Victoria during the perinatal period. This period is generally defined as starting from as early as the 20th week of gestation until up to four weeks after birth. The Family and Community Development Committee will undertake an inquiry that will look into: • The impact of the loss of commonwealth funding (especially to the National Perinatal Depression Initiative); • The adequacy of the number, location, distribution, quality and safety of health services capable of dealing with high-risk and premature births; • Disparity in outcomes between rural, regional and metropolitan locations; • The availability, quality and safety of health services; • Access to and provision of an appropriately qualified workforce of midwives, paediatricians, obstetricians, lactation consultants and other relevant specialists across Victoria, and, • Identification of best practice. Dr Carling-Jenkins is pleased Victoria’s Health Minister Jill Hennessy has fully supported this move, as did the Victorian branch of the Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation. In Australia, the number of babies dying at birth or in the first 28 days of life is greater than our national road toll. In 2012, there were almost 3000 perinatal deaths in Australia. When viewed alongside Victoria’s baby boom, we can see that this is a serious issue that warrants our attention.

Parliamentary inquiry: mother and baby wellbeing

Wyndham, Melton and Hume have all been identified as baby-boom areas. It was reported that, during one particular week, 15 babies were born in a 24-hour period at the Werribee Mercy Hospital. While this was extraordinary, on average five babies are born at the hospital every single day. In the 2014–15 financial year, more than 3000 babies were delivered at this hospital. This financial year it will be close to 4000. This is a substantial increase. With rapid growth in the birth-rate in these areas, systemic capacity has become
an issue. Hospitals including Sunshine Hospital and the Werribee Mercy are at risk of not having the right facilities and resources to deal with the increase in demand. The inquiry will investigate and make recommendations to address these issues. Dr Carling-Jenkins has visited hospitals, held discussions with doctors, nurses and mothers, and reviewed the academic literature on this issue. It is very clear an inquiry is needed to address a range of issues, gaps, deficiencies and disparities
to ensure all Victorian mothers and their babies receive nothing less than world’s best practice during the perinatal period. Dr Rachel Carling-Jenkins, Suite 3, 1-13 Watton Street, Werribee.

eter Haines has been in the paint industry for more than 40 years, so he’s picked up a lot of know-how over that time – just the type of bloke you need when considering a painting project or a decor makeover. He started in a small shop at Boronia, but soon realised he needed to align himself with a large franchise in order to give his customers the best prices – hence his move to the Paint Spot at Hoppers Crossing 13 years ago. Now, Peter has a team of 10 around him – and prices rival Bunnings and Masters. “Being part of the Paint Spot stable gives us significant buying power, resulting in really good prices we can pass on,” Peter says. “But we’re also able to offer a level of customer service the big boys can’t match.” His team of mostly western suburbs locals gets ongoing training to keep them on top of all new products and trends. In fact, some members of the team are known as “champions”, imparting product knowledge and advice well above the norm. “We have, for instance, our ‘wallpaper champion’, Romina Volo, who’s also a colour consultant. “Romina’s the one to guide customers into the right wallpaper and colour scheme to complement their home decor,” Peter says. The wallpaper range – think Hume Internationale, Rosemont and Vision – provides home decorators with a top-notch designer product for a very classy decor statement.

Back stage, more students can hear the buzz as their families and friends fill the school’s 500-seat, architecturally designed auditorium. It’s opening night at Thomas Carr College’s new performing arts centre, the third and final stage of the school’s master plan after the already-completed middle years school and the trade training centre and state-of-the-art chapel . . .

The very well-regarded Mr Diamond was also instrumental in forging a relationship between the school and its students with the Malay Borneo Vets Association, something of which the school is proud. As the school celebrates its 20th anniversary next year, it will reflect
on how far it has come in terms of student numbers (more than 1200) and outstanding amenity. Its Catholic identity is at the centre of school life, along with a broad-based curriculum in years 7 and 8 through to a comprehensive range of VCE, VET and VCAL courses. The school’s renowned patron, Archbishop Thomas Carr (Melbourne Catholic Archbishop, 1886-1917), was a
visionary leader who was instrumental in establishing Catholic education throughout Melbourne. He is a constant reminder of the value of a pioneering spirit and a good education, two qualities the school continues to celebrate. Thomas Carr College, 35 Thomas Carr Drive, Tarneit.

Acoustically treated music, band and drama rooms, tutorial suites and a recording studio will be other features when the performing arts centre is completed in time for the start of the 2017 school year. There’s a promise of excitement in another area, too. The existing gymnasium will double in size, allowing for two basketball courts, retractable tier seating for a show court, a weights room, a PE classroom, renovated change rooms and a high-quality audio visual system for school liturgies, assemblies and events. While the school is invested in ‘the new’ to enhance teaching and learning through up-to-date technology across all levels, it also gets year 9 students ‘back to basics’ in an innovative, engaging way.

Leave racing for horses, police warn V
ictoria Police will be out in force over the Melbourne Cup weekend, with Operation Furlong running from Friday, October 30, until Tuesday, November 3. Road policing advisor Senior Sergeant Ross Burbidge said Operation Furlong will be conducted throughout Victoria by all operational police in all police areas over the five days, using all available personnel from local highway patrol units, general duties police and other units. The major focus for the operation will be speed, fatigue, impaired driving (drug and alcohol), mobile phone offences and seatbelt compliance. Motorists will be aware of police units in marked and unmarked vehicles targeting major arterial roads over this holiday weekend. Traffic camera vehicles will also be rostered on roads known for high collision rates. The aim, in addition to detecting offences, is to provide a highly visible and mobile police presence to reinforce positive driving behaviours and reduce the incidence of road trauma. “It has been demonstrated time after time,” Senior Sergeant Burbidge explains, “that speed is a contributing factor in most road crashes. Therefore, stay within the speed limit and drive to suit the conditions.” Speeding affects both the risk of a crash and the severity of injuries sustained when a crash does happen. RoadSafe Westgate Community Road Safety Council chairman Jim Giddings says road trauma isn’t just about the people who die. “It’s about the enormous impact on the community, from the family members and emergency services workers, who have

to deal with these tragedies on a daily basis, to the police who have to deliver the devastating news to loved ones,” Mr Giddings says. Drivers are urged to plan their trips, be patient and ensure they have frequent breaks when driving long distances. Mr Giddings said holiday driving has its special challenges, and motorists should
drive in the hours they are normally awake, take regular breaks to reduce fatigue and allow extra space between vehicles. They need to adapt to the conditions of the road – the onus is always on the driver to suit the conditions they are facing, and that includes the quality of the road. “If you plan to have a drink, then plan not to drive. Taking a big risk like drinking and
driving is just not worth endangering your or other road users’ lives,” Mr Giddings warns. “And before embarking on any driving trips, drivers should check their tyres, windscreen washers, brakes and lights. “Be prepared and stay safe.” Report speeding drivers to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000

And because our workforce is such a stable one, it means people will deal with familiar faces – this is invaluable when people are dealing with the stress of a sick pet.” Dr Davis offers some final advice on snake-bitten pets. “To give pets the best chance of surviving, they need to receive antivenom as soon as possible. Do not wait. “Vomiting, salivation, wobbliness or weakness in the legs, red-coloured urine, floppiness and collapse followed by seeming recovery can be signs of snake bite.

hen seven-year-old Nemo, an adventurous Burmese cat owned by Point Cook resident Kathryn Jenkins, returned home lethargic, puffy in the face and vomiting, it wasn’t immediately obvious that he’d been bitten by a snake, possibly a tiger or brown which are the most common culprits. Three days in intensive care and two vials of anti venom later, Nemo returned home from U-Vet Werribee Animal Hospital (recently rebranded from University of Melbourne Veterinary Hospital). “It was the work of our amazing emergency and critical care team that saved Nemo’s life,” says Dr Mark Davis, senior lecturer at U-Vet. “We have a unique 24-hour care service and a team stands ready every hour of every day of the year to treat emergencies.” Dr Davis says U-Vet has already treated eight snake bite cases since the start of spring and expects a lot more, with an average of 50 to 75 cases treated at the hospital each year. He believes more pet owners are signing up for pet insurance because snakes are an ever-present danger and associated treatment costs can be significant. This longstanding, high quality practice may have changed its name, but what hasn’t changed are the highly credentialed team on board.

Kevin Harrington, actor and Western Bulldogs tragic FB: How would you rate your cooking skills? KH: Me – 10 out of 10. Daughters rating me – four out of 10. FB: What is your signature dish? KH: Steak on the barbecue. With salad. Spag bol. I often cheat by mixing mince with Dolmio jars of spaghetti sauce. But where does that end, that reliance of pre-mixed sauces? Is tomato paste out of bounds? Should you mince the meat yourself? Should you buy and feed the cow and kill it? I think people get a bit precious about these things. FB: If you could only have one meal, what would it be? KH: I personally think steak and salad is an unbeatable combination of hot, seared and juicy with cold and crunchy. Salt and pepper on the steak. Dressing on the salad. How can you beat that? I’m not really a dessert person but once again the barbecue is handy for mango with cinnamon sugar and lime juice seared quickly with double cream or vanilla ice cream.
As always, if you have any recipes, tips or other info you’d like to share, email me at sarah@ howdypartnersmedia.com.au
FB: What is your favourite food show and who is your favourite food show personality? KH: I watched MasterChef in the early days and liked Matt Preston. He is larger than life in his dress sense and theatricality. Iain Hewitson always prepared very doable food. The sort of thing an amateur could comfortably have a go at. Maggie Beer is such an infectious enthusiast you can’t help but be attracted to her cooking suggestions. FB: What is your favourite food? KH: If I say steak and salad again? I love bananas, cherry tomatoes, cos lettuce, scotch fillet, avocado dip, Twisties and Crunchie chocolate bars and Cascade premium beer. Please note not all of these accompany each other favourably. FB: Which five people would you invite to a dinner party? KH: My dad (passed away), my wife, my two daughters and Teddy Whitten. Dad knew him from footy at Braybrook so it would be fun to hear their reminiscing. FB: Do you have a kitchen tip for us? KH: It is not a law of the Commonwealth of Australia that you can’t leave the dishes unwashed until the following morning.
It seems my chat about popular chocolate blocks a few weeks back really struck a chord. I’m always excited when readers email me with their recipes, and one such treat I cannot wait to try is this coconut chocolate recipe from Jackie Whyte, of Hobson’s Bay.

Melt together the coconut oil and rice malt syrup on very low heat. Blend in the cacao powder, cinnamon and maca. Whisk until smooth. Line a square baking tin with greaseproof paper and pour the mixture into the tin. Place in the freezer. After an hour, remove from freezer, tip the frozen block of chocolate on to a chopping board and remove the grease-proof paper. Allow to warm to room temperature for approximately 15 minutes before cutting into bite-size pieces. Keep chocolate in fridge or freezer to prevent it melting.
“If you can eat with mates or friends or family, I mean, it’s such a brilliant thing, isn’t it? If you feel really rubbish and you have a nice bit of food it makes you feel good, you know?” – Jamie Oliver

Blake James discovers some cool, and not so cool, share trading apps
Plus500
IQ Option
EzTrader
Banc De Binary
If you are interested in trading indices, shares or stocks, then this application is the one for you. Plus500 delivers a professional binary trading platform that is user-friendly. Plus500 delivers all the necessary utilities to monitor and make decisions in quick-time. It provides high-quality tools for alerts about prices and has an automatic withdrawal system that can be pre-set. The GUI (graphical user interface) is easy to navigate and doesn’t take long to understand. There is a wealth of knowledge available about the application, which really helps with the technical side of things. One neat aspect of this application is the demo mode, which allows practice with pretend money to simulate the real market before using actual money. Overall, I highly recommend this app for anyone who wants to take binary trading seriously and possibly make some money.
IQ Options is a slick, well-designed binary options broker application that delivers on speed and reliability for an amazing trading experience. IQ Options differs from the Plus500 application by being so visually appealing. But I mark it down due to navigation difficulties. The GUI is very nice to look at and everything stands out, but the screen is occasionally cluttered because there is too much going on at once. Overall, I still recommend trying this application because it’s very well made and has a very good reputation – very important when using investment applications where there is high risk and high reward involved. It still delivers on many levels and might appeal to more visually inclined users.
EzTrader is a fairly simple trading application. The graphs are a little less sophisticated than other trading platforms. The GUI for this application is clunky at best. General navigation of EzTrader is simple but the application feels empty, almost incomplete. When opening the available indices, the list is largely unpopulated and is not full or comprehensive. EzTrader fails to deliver an enjoyable user experience and instead delivers disappointment. It’s unclear on how to order or sell currencies and information about the application is scant. Overall, EzTrader as a binary trading platform is not recommended. It falls below the high standards set by both Plus500 and IQ Option. The trading performance when trading is slow and often disconnects without notice. The only thing that works within Ez Trader is its simplistic navigation.
Banc De Binary is – much like the other applications – a binary trading platform aimed at people who would like to make some quick cash. Banc De Binary, unlike the other applications, has a comprehensive “tutorial” for those about to start their first trade. This goes over how easy the system is to use and gives some hints to get users started. For users who are new to binary trading, this is very helpful. The graphical user interface is quite basic and easy to comprehend. It displays both numerical changes and graphical changes of the chosen share. What is disappointing is that – much like EzTrader – there is a very small list of tradable items. Overall, compared to the top trading applications, this platform is second rate and lacks quality and depth.

89 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ OCTOBER 28, 2015
SPORT Top-of-the-table Giants are in the pink With three wins in six days, tireless Werribee Giants have soared to the top of division 2 of Baseball Victoria’s summer league. The Giants moved into a share of first place with Berwick City after Saturday’s 6-1 win over Ballarat at President’s Park. Giants pitcher Josh Lee told Star Weekly the side should be taken seriously after four wins in a row. “We’re sitting on top now so we’ve definitely sent a message,” he said. This week is big in more ways than one for Lee. The Giants new recruit is a likely starter for Saturday’s clash with former club Williamstown Wolves at President’s Park and
is excited to be able to take it up to his former teammates. But the day will hold extra special meaning for Lee and the rest of the players who take to the field as the Giants will hold their pink day for breast cancer awareness. The home team will be decked out in specially made uniforms and proceeds from the day will go to cancer research. “Cancer has touched my family. I think cancer is something everyone has to focus on,” Lee said. “To be able do something special and to help with the research is awesome. “A lot of clubs across the nation are really getting behind it.”
With most of the league playing on Sunday, Lee urged opposition clubs to get to President’s Park and throw their support behind the day. He cheekily said it may be in their best interests to watch his team play while digging deep into their pockets. “It’s a Saturday game and most of the other clubs will be playing on the Sunday, so we hope, now we’re 4-1 and starting to send a message to the league that we’re a contender for the premiership this year, they’ll want to come out and suss us out a little bit and see exactly what they will face against us,” he said. Lance Jenkinson
IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ Brian Lake at Caroline Springs and Brendan Fevola at Deer Park must have footy fans of the west ready for anything in 2016. Brian committed to the Lakers (now the Brian Lakers, I assume) last week, even though it has been the worst kept secret ever that he’d play there when his AFL days were up. I’ve no doubt he could have commanded a sizeable pay cheque at VFL level and at numerous suburban clubs but he chose the Lakers. The fact his boys play at the junior club and he lives a short golf cart drive from the clubrooms would have aided his thinking. How many suburban clubs currently boast a Norm Smith medallist and a three-time AFL premiership player in their ranks? Get back to me with an answer on that one. ■ One really interesting AFL trade that caught my eye was Jack Fitzpatrick’s move from Melbourne to Hawthorn in return for pick 94. Jack is a former Wyndhamvale junior who won the WRFL’s B&F as an under-16. He was drafted to Melbourne but then had serious health problems, including diabetes and chronic fatigue syndrome. But what a wonderful opportunity he has now after being picked up by the reigning premiers. Who knows, we may see another fairytale story like that of Brian Lake unfold with Jack. To play at the highest level would be just reward after his health problems. ■ Great to see James Winks riding winners at the Spring Racing Carnival and several country meetings on the back of the passing of his grandfather, Mick, last week. Mick was a popular trainer and former jockey. James is showing himself to be one to watch and I know a bunch of Braybrook people who follow him because of his ties to the west. They will have pocketed a tidy sum in the last few days of racing.
Lee pitches to old pals By Lance Jenkinson Werribee Giants boom recruit Josh Lee will come face-to-face with former club Williamstown Wolves in division 2 of Baseball Victoria’s summer league at President’s Park on Saturday. It will be Lee’s first match against the Wolves since he left the club in the off-season, although he did cross paths with them at a mid-week double header at Melbourne Ballpark recently. Lee made no apologies for moving to a western suburbs rival, nor do his old teammates seek one. “They have no hard feelings,” he told Star Weekly. “They’re a good bunch of blokes and I caught up with some of them. “It was good to have a fun chat with them and I’m looking forward to playing against them this week.” Lee can be a cornerstone to the Giants push for a premiership as the 29-year-old left-handed pitcher has the experience that has been lacking in a young line-up. “The average age of the playing group is about 24, so when I came to the club, I was like ‘holy 90 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ OCTOBER 28, 2015
crap, I’m one of the old guys’,” he said. “If we can keep this group together we can do some big things for the next 10 years.” There were three key factors behind Lee’s decision to move to the Giants. Playing closer to his Geelong home was appealing. Getting to play year-round under his winter coach, Justin Charles, was a drawcard. The sealer was a new committee at the Giants, one that has lofty ambitions to take a talented team to division 1 sooner rather than later. The acquisition of Lee and Geelong Baycats recruit Charles Thompson, the imminent arrival of Venezuelan import infielder Jose Ruiz and the retention of the bulk of last summer’s finals team tell you all you need to know about the Giants’ goals this season. “The first couple of weeks were the unknown, but we’re all starting to gel now,” Lee said. “Everyone has a different playing style, so we’re starting to get a feel for each other and getting to know each other’s playing abilities. It’s so much better now everyone is coming together.” Lee’s obvious strength is his pitching and the Giants will need him to churn out lots of quality
outings on the mound if they are to challenge at the pointy end of the season. Lee also has an ace up his sleeve as a batter. “Justin and I crossed paths five or six years ago at a carnival in Mildura,” Lee recalled. “I played outfield and had one of the best hitting tournaments I’ve had, with eight home runs. “I like to pitch and mainly just pitch, but I think I can hit a little bit to help out.” Lee has been playing baseball since he was six, when he got his start with Bacchus Marsh. He was on the verge of being drafted to the Toronto Blue Jays minor leagues before tearing ligaments in his elbow. Interest from the Blue Jays cooled and Lee stayed in Australia. “I was very close,” he said. “But I had that injury setback and the Blue Jays said they didn’t want to go any further with my injury.” Lee has played division 1 at Geelong and Williamstown, all the while retaining his links with local club East Belmont Saints, where he is a six-time MVP winner. Now he wants to take the leap to top division with the Giants.

■ Local footy can be very ruthless . . . Parkside grand final coach Nathan Boyd is moving to Corio for 2016, Paul Growcott is heading back from Caroline Springs to Laverton to replace Christian Spencer and Jamie Lane has the job at Braybrook. There’s still no word on the Werribee Districts appointment, although there are plenty of rumours. I believe the Montebruno brothers are heading to North Footscray and Spotswood may be waving goodbye to a few key players. There will be a lot of movement in VFL ranks after the drafts, as there always is.

Teen ace academy-bound By Liam Twomey
If he needs any advice he has the perfect mentor close by in brother Michael, who has been through the TAC Cup system and now plays for VFL side Footscray. All indications are Fogarty will be a valuable member of the Jets’ squad after the representative side struggled throughout 2015. The hard-working midfielder and year 10 student also had a promising junior basketball career, making a number of representative teams. Fogarty isn’t letting his early footy success go to his head and is refusing to get swept up in AFL draft speculation. “I’m not really focusing on AFL at this stage. There are a lot of other things to look at, like school and catching up with my mates … so I’m not just focusing on football all the time.” For his outstanding sporting achievements, Fogarty is this month’s nominee for the Don Deeble Rising Star award, run by Sunshine Western Region Sports Club in conjunction with Star Weekly. Fogarty will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes to help him reach his sporting goals. The Don Deeble Rising Star award recognises young western suburbs athletes who achieve outstanding results at state and national levels.

Falcons’ spin kings reign Wyndham Vale spun a 26-run win over Newport-Digman in the VTCA west A1 at Wyndham Vale South Reserve on Saturday. The Falcons managed to defend their total of 9-210 declared, bowling the Bulls out for 184. Spinners Michael Nalesnyik (4-56), a new recruit from Footscray Edgewater, and Jonathan Ford (3-47), back after injury last summer, combined for 54 overs to take the home side to victory. It was the Falcons’ first win of summer, lifting them to mid-table ahead of a trip to third-placed Williamstown CYMS for the start of a two-day game on Saturday. Werribee Centrals had its first victory this season, crushing Royal Park-Brunswick by 142 runs. Thanancheyan Arunthavapalan stood out with the bat for the Centurions, scoring 60 from the middle order. Teammate Nathan Johnson set the game up with seven wickets on day one. In west B1, Seabrook fell a tantalising four-wickets short of an outright win against Barkly Street Uniting. The Streeters were six down, still trailing by 73 runs at the compulsory close of play. Point Cook failed in its chase for Sunshine YCW’s 168, bowled out for 129. The Warriors were 7-56 before lower-order batsman Daryl Groves (35) and Raj Sandhu (34) breathed life into the innings, but to no avail, as the Warriors went down by 39 runs.
No matter what level of football, all clubs are looking for big-game players. Williamstown’s Lachlan Fogarty may only be in the early stages of his career but he certainly fits the bill. The 16-year-old has long been known around the west as a rising star, but he’s now being spoken about nationwide after an incredible under-16 national championships. Representing Vic Metro on the Gold Coast, Fogarty dominated for the Big V and was named his side’s most valuable player. The selection earned him a position at the prestigious AFL national academy. He will now get the chance to work with some of the best junior development coaches in Australia, including former Adelaide coach Brenton Sanderson, Western Bulldogs’ legend Brad Johnson and Essendon goalkicking machine Matthew Lloyd. “My main goal was just to make the Vic Metro side,” Fogarty says. “I wasn’t really thinking about the games at all; I just wanted to earn the respect of my teammates and the coaches. “Once I made the team and got up to the Gold Coast, I just wanted to play hard for my teammates. I was lucky enough to get a kick and it went from there.” His time with Vic Metro will give Fogarty the perfect grounding to move into TAC Cup football. Having played juniors for Spotswood and school football at St Kevins, he will now turn his attention to earning a spot on the Western Jets’ list Lachlan Fogarty is this month’s Don Deeble for 2016. Rising Star nominee. (Damian Visentini)

Star power helps club rebuild A golden generation of swimmers has come and gone from Hoppers Crossing Swimming Club. Under coach Ken Warren, the club produced a number of regional, state and national representatives, but now stocks are starting to get a little thin. “We have a pretty good history with national swimmers,” Warren told Star Weekly. “But they’ve done their time and left the club and we’re now in a rebuild.” The club, based at the new Aquapulse centre in Derrimut Road, needs a regeneration of its ranks. Being shunted to the Werribee outdoor pool while Aquapulse was being built did not help, and the club has struggled to retain existing members or attract newcomers in recent years. “We lost a lot of swimmers in that time,” Warren said. Hoppers Crossing will hold a club information day from 10am on November 7. It will be the most important out-of-pool event in years as the club tries to attract new swimmers. Star power will be used to drive the cause, with
Australian swimming sensations Mack Horton and Monique Murphy on hand to share their knowledge and experience. Horton won gold in the 4 x 200m freestyle team and silver in the 1500m freestyle at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow in 2014. Murphy is a multi-class paralympic swimmer who competed at the IPC World Championships. Both have totally different tales to tell about how they got to the top of their chosen sport. The crux of the presentation will undoubtedly revolve around the hard work and sacrifices they made to get to the top. “We’re asking these swimmers to explain how much they have put into swimming to get to where they are,” Warren said. “They have totally different backgrounds but it’s all about finding out about how they got there.” The information day is open to anyone with an interest in joining the club.

Bees back in win zone By Lance Jenkinson It was time for Werribee to stand up and show it meant business in Bowls Victoria division 1. The Bees have built a strong reputation in the division in recent seasons but one win this season from the opening three matches hardly had the rest of the competition’s sides shaking in their boots. This was an early crossroads game for the Bees against credible opposition in the form of undefeated Altona Sports. They could win and square the ledger at 2-2 or lose and fall to 1-3 and play catch-up for the rest of the summer. Just as important was the chance to build confidence after a rough start. Trailing by nine shots at the mid-point of the match, the Bees produced a timely comeback to pip the visitors 76-75 in a thriller at Chirnside Park on Saturday. 92 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ OCTOBER 28, 2015
Bees skip Snowy Barker did not play down the importance of the victory. “We actually mentioned that it was a line in the sand game,” he said. “We couldn’t afford to go 1-3 down. We had to make a stand there and then.” Like good sides do, the Bees found a way to get the victory and move away from the lower reaches of the ladder. They had to do it without three first team regulars but the reinforcements played valuable roles. Aaron Evans and Gavin Joyce were promoted into the side after strong form in the seconds. Their lack of first-team exposure mattered little and they both played a part in the win. The Bees might even reward them with repeat outings in the ones next week. “They stood up and played well,” Barker said. “We’ll have a couple of hard decisions to make – there will be a big dilemma at selection.”
Barker rated the win highly – Altona Sports might be a newly promoted side but it’s one that has been running hot in recent weeks. They are a team on the rise yet on Saturday the Bees showed them who was boss down the stretch. “They had won three in a row, so they’re going all right,” Barker said. “It got a bit close towards the end but we got through. It was a workman-like effort right across the board.” The Bees moved up to fifth to set up a fifth-round blockbuster with fourth-placed Deer Park at Ballarat Road on Saturday. In division 2, Hoppers Crossing went down 92-77 to ladder-leader Richmond Union, leaving the former at second-last with just one win in four games. Hoppers Crossing will host Keilor on Saturday in a crucial match for the two struggling sides.
Downing Gulls a super tonic for Werribee If it could, Werribee would bottle that sweet taste of success over arch-rivals Williamstown in the sub-district cricket. The Tigers proved far too good for the Seagulls with a 79-run win at Chirnside Park on Saturday. Tigers captain-coach Mitch Johnstone is in his first season at the club so is on his way to becoming well versed in the history of the rivalry between the clubs. But he only needed to hear training chatter in the lead-up to the game to know how special it would be for the Tigers to get bragging rights over the Seagulls. “I wasn’t too aware of the rivalry, but with the talk at training, I can see there isn’t any love lost between the two teams,” he said. “The boys were pretty excited to beat Willy but that’s a new rivalry for me.” Werribee has retained its spot at the top of the ladder. The Tigers are one of four teams with perfect 2-0 records but are statistically the best batting and bowling side in the competition at this early stage. But Johnstone is cautioning his team about complacency. He believes the greatest challenges will come from the other side of town when the Tigers are pitted against the south teams. “We’re under no illusions that it’s going to get trickier,” he said. “We’ll just keep on keeping on playing consistent cricket and we’ll see where it gets us. “So far so good but we know there’s going to be some tough challenges ahead. We’ve got a pretty level-headed group so we’re not getting ahead of ourselves.” The Tigers were always going to be hard to catch when they posted 4-253 on day one. Williamstown saw out its 80 overs but could not lift the run rate sufficiently enough to make the Tigers sweat. The Seagulls finished on 9-174, a long way short of the target. “We strangled really well,” Johnstone said. “I don’t think anyone stood out with the ball and bowled fantastically well, but I guess those bowling partnerships meant the run rate required built up and that way we built some pressure.” Three new Tigers recruits combined to bowl 45 overs between them. They were effective overs, too, with spinner Johnstone taking 3-24 off 22 overs and new-ball operators Brad Robertson (1-33 off 12) and Aangan Parbhakar (2-27 off 11) tying up the top order. Parbhakar’s biggest impact came in the field with a direct-hit run-out of dangerous Seagulls captain Dale McDonald. “He’s the opposition’s best player so that really changed the course of the game,” Johnstone said. The Tigers will face their first southern test when they travel to Elsternwick for a one-day game on Saturday. Meanwhile, Hoppers Crossing went down to Yarraville by five wickets in a disappointing result on home turf at Hogans Road Reserve. The Cats fought tooth and nail to defend their small total of 124, producing 30 maidens for the day, but the Eagles were always in front of the run rate and comfortably reached the target. The Cats will travel to Williamstown for a one-day clash on Saturday. Lance Jenkinson
MOTOR Lexus SUV is a sleek contender David Bonnici drives Lexus’s foray into the small-to-medium SUV market Having spent the previous week in automotive heaven strutting around in the brutish Lexus RC F racing coupe, jumping into an SUV should have been a let-down – but this is no ordinary SUV. The NX 200 is the smallest of the Lexus SUV range and the first to enter the hotly contested small-to medium SUV market. It is a turbocharged petrol version of the hybrid NX 300h released several months earlier. While the NX 300 is stately, the 200 is it’s sporty cousin though it isn’t wanting for luxury and features. On the outside, it’s very attractive, with angular lines, a hawkish face and squinty headlights in an aggressive-looking grill. As is the fashion with SUVs, the side windows are quite narrow, particularly at the rear, which means reduced all-round vision for the driver and a lesser view for those in the back seat, particularly children. Inside is nice, as you’d expect from Lexus. The test car had two-tone red and black leather that took a bit of getting used to but suited this car well. A nice, big centre console leads up to the gear shift, air-conditioning controls and the 7-inch multi media screen atop the dashboard. Multi-media functions are controlled by finger pad, which takes a little getting used to, especially when trying to input a destination for the satellite navigation.

speedometer sit either side of a multi-function display that has trip computer info and also lets you know which driving mode is being used – eco, normal or sport. The NX200 F Sport lives up to it’s name and goes along very nicely. It has the height advantage of an SUV with the handling of a car. The F Sport comes with All-Wheel-Drive, which makes it handle well, and the 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder engine is incredibly responsive. It handles dirt roads nicely, too, in terms of ride and handling, which made for a lovely Saturday out on the back roads near Mt Macedon – as close to Lexus heartland as you can get. This is a lot of fun to drive and at the end of our seven-day dalliance I was as reluctant to let it go, as I was the RC F. The fuel economy isn’t bad – 7.7 litres/100km compared to the NX300 hybrid’s 5.7L/100km. Safety features are abundant and include blind-side monitoring, hill-start assist, rear camera, eight airbags and a nifty panoramic view monitor that lets you see all around the car and makes up for the narrow windows. It makes me wonder what took Lexus so long to enter the popular small-to-medium SUV market, though I’m glad they’ve done so. With prices starting at $57,567 drive away for the base-model 2WD NX 200t, this is a luxury SUV that more than holds it’s own against much pricier German models in terms of quality and driver enjoyment.
