A new vision for students Free eye tests will be offered at seven primary schools across Wyndham, thanks to a new state government initiative. The Glasses for Kids program aims to test the eyes of 30,000 pupils from prep to year three at 250 Victorian schools. Free glasses will be provided to those youngsters found to need them. Glasses for Kids, a partnership between the state government and Melbourne University, will use supervised final year optometry students to vision test about two-thirds of students. Studies have shown that children with undiagnosed vision problems often find it hard to concentrate at school, leading to poor results and disruptive behaviour – yet many struggling families avoid eye tests because of their cost. Education minister James Merlino said initial trials showed how essential this program would be to young learners. “The results from the trial were astounding,” Mr Merlino said. “At one school we tested 330 kids, and 125 of them needed glasses … teachers reported an immediate improvement in behaviour and academic performance.” Iramoo, Manorvale, Mossfiel, The Grange, Warringa Park, Westgrove and Wyndham Park primary schools will take part in the initiative.

New cop shop, more police By Adem Saban Werribee police station will be rebuilt as part of a $2 billion state government package to help police resources keep up with population growth. The four-year plan will also include the recruitment of more than 2250 new police officers statewide. Police Minister Lisa Neville announced the investment at a press conference in Melbourne on Sunday morning. She said there had been “incredible pressure” on police in growth corridors and many communities were left fearful and concerned. “We have seen a crime rise and seen a need
to deliver more [police resources],” Ms Neville said. “This is about starting the process of turning that around and supporting growing communities in Victoria.” Police Association figures reveal that Wyndham now has 45 police for every 100,000 residents, compared with a state average of 102 officers for every 100,000 residents. The association has said the region will need another 159 officers in the next five years to reach and maintain the current Victorian ratio. Earlier this year, Ms Neville guaranteed that growth areas such as Wyndham would see additional police on the beat by as early as February next year. On Sunday, she said a new allocation model
had been finalised and would provide a clear understanding of where frontline police were needed. The model would also help forecast future needs. Chief Commissioner Graham Ashton said police resources in western outer growth corridors, such as Wyndham, had been “well and truly stretched”, and he believed the new model would help combat that. Police Association secretary Ron Iddles noted: “Today is a historic event. Never in the history of Victoria Police have we seen such an injection.” Mr Iddles said the boost in police investment was the result of Victoria Police, the state government, and the Police Association

working together for a safer community. News of the upgrade was welcomed by the three state MPs representing Wyndham. Werribee MP Tim Pallas said: “I care about the safety of my community. We have to turn the recent crime trends around. That’s why these additional frontline police, and a replacement police station for Wyndham, are so important.” Tarneit MP Telmo Languiller, who received a petition from concerned residents at Spring Street earlier this year, said the government had listened to those concerns while ensuring police had the resources to do their job. Altona MP Jill Hennessy said it was “great news for local police in Wyndham”.

Ambo station for Wyndham Vale By Charlene Macaulay Wyndham Vale is set to get its first ambulance station as part of a $500 million state government plan to slash ambulance response times. The state government last week announced that the 24-hour station, which will cost about $3 million to build, will have 14 full-time equivalent paramedics and a new ambulance vehicle. It is not known where in Wyndham Vale the new station will be located, but it is expected to open in late 2018.
Wyndham currently has ambulance stations in Werribee, Hoppers Crossing and Point Cook, with a Tarneit branch under construction. The Wyndham Vale announcement is part of a five-year plan to meet demand across Melbourne’s outer suburbs and includes employing 450 more paramedics and building 15 new and upgraded stations across Victoria. There will also be six new super ambulance response centres, housing more than 200 paramedics, based in the west, the outer north-west, the north, the north-east, outer east and south-east.
Exact locations for the response centres have yet to be determined. Ambulance Services Minister Jill Hennessy said the new Wyndham Vale station would help cut ambulance response times. “In a medical emergency every second saves lives,” she said. “That’s why we’re ensuring people in Wyndham Vale get the right emergency care, quickly, when they need it.” Werribee MP Tim Pallas added: “The new Wyndham Vale ambulance station will make a huge difference to this community’s hard-working and dedicated paramedics
and makes room for more paramedics on the road.” Ambulance Victoria metro west regional director Anthony Carlyon said the new station would help paramedics “further improve our response to the community”. Wyndham council safer communities portfolio holder Kim McAliney was thrilled by the announcement. “Council supports any services that will reduce response times and improve the health and wellbeing outcomes of the community, particularly those that help people in times of emergencies,” Cr McAliney said.

Werribee line more on time
Circa 1910 and a rich life lived well “There were no cars around Werribee then; we used to drive a horse and buggy from Werribee to Geelong, over the hill. It would take a long time.” After her schooling, Edna left Werribee to teach at a school near Swan Hill. “Back then we taught everything, not just one subject,” she said. “We also taught the whole school, not one grade.” She returned to Werribee in the early 1930s, and met a young man by the name of Ernest Henry Fisher.

In Edna Fisher’s lifetime, there’ve been two world wars, television and the internet arrived, and 28 different Australian prime ministers held office. Last week, the lifelong Wyndham resident celebrated her 106th birthday. Although born in Brunswick, Edna’s family moved to Werribee when she was just a few months old. She grew up on the old Metropolitan Farm, also known as Werribee Farm, where her father worked, going to primary school at Cocoroc, then to Werribee for secondary school.
Werribee line commuters are experiencing fewer delays than they were at the beginning of this year, new figures reveal. Public Transport Victoria’s track record report shows that in the March 2016 quarter, 89.4 per cent of peak service trains along the Werribee line arrived on time – that is, within four minutes and 59 seconds after their scheduled time. In the June quarter, punctuality jumped to 92 per cent, and by the September quarter, it was at 93 per cent. The figures were similar for the Werribee line’s off-peak services, with a 93.8 per cent punctuality rate for the September quarter. Metro spokeswoman Sammie Black said a variety of mishaps had caused numerous delays on the Werribee line in the first quarter of the year. “In March, there was an increase in delays caused by faulty trains, signalling issues, ill passengers and trespasser incidents,” Ms Black said. “The improvement to the number of services arriving on time between March and June was due to a decrease of incidents … [and] the improvement from June to September quarter was attributed to no ill passengers, reduction in infrastructure-related cancellations (particularly during the AM peak) and number of police operations affecting train services due to unruly passengers.” Ms Black said Metro would be rolling out more X’Trapolis trains on the Werribee line in the next 12 months, which would further help to reduce delays.

Station carpark feedback call By Adem Saban Plans have been drafted – and Williams Landing train station will soon have a brand new commuter carpark. Preliminary designs released last week show a narrow carpark for 150 vehicles on land between Wallace Avenue and Palmers Road. The new asphalt carpark was announced by Altona MP Jill Hennessy in July this year following a public outcry over the difficulties faced by commuters wanting to secure a park each weekday morning. Ms Hennessy hosted a feedback session on Wednesday evening, hearing from locals about their thoughts on the new carpark design. “We know carparks around Victoria are getting busier earlier, including here in Melbourne’s west,â€? Ms Hennessy said. “We are boosting parking at Williams Landing station so that we can reduce the daily scramble to find a park. “These extra spaces will reduce pressure on the busy carpark, and make it easier to get to work and home again at the end of the day.â€? As part of the drafting process, the final plans will also consider: • A traffic flow and management analysis to ensure the carpark integrates with local traffic conditions; • Ongoing consultation with Heritage Victoria and Wyndham council to ensure designs are sympathetic to the area; • Ensuring people of all abilities are able to access the carpark; • Minimising the impact of noise and lighting

We know carparks around Victoria are getting - Jill Hennessy busier earlier
Cuisines of many nations will be on offer at Point Cook’s first-ever food truck festival. The five-day free festival at the Town Centre starts January 18 and will raise cash for sick children. Event organiser Danny Grant says the festival is one of 12 across Melbourne pursuing the goal of raising $200,000 in total for the Monash Children’s Hospital. The first such festival was in Berwick in March this year. “[We] thought it would be awesome to be able to use these crowds to help a worthy cause,� Mr Grant said. Funds raised from rides, face-painting and parking will go to the hospital. Mr Grant said the event also gave people in outer suburbs a rare chance to enjoy food trucks. The festival runs from 5-10pm on weeknights, and noon-10pm at the weekend. Cuisines on offer will include Indian, Spanish, Taiwanese, Greek, Italian, Korean and Brazilian.
’’
The petition was started in March this year, and within days, it had gained support, and signatures, of more than 1100 other commuters. In May, Ace Parking opened a 300-spot paid carpark on Overton Road between Palmers Road and Kendall Street. While this relieved some of the stress for commuters, there is presently a fee to use the carpark. Construction of the new carpark, which will offer free parking, will begin early next year, and is due to be completed by the end of next year. It will be funded through a state government investment of $20 million, which will create more than 1500 new parking spaces across the train network. People have until the new year to comment.

Pirate ship sails again By Charlene Macaulay Ahoy, me hearties … Point Cook’s pirate playground has re-opened at last. More than two years after the original timber playground at Bayview Park was destroyed in an arson attack, the new improved version had kids back on deck last Thursday. This time around the park has some safety features aimed at preventing anti-social behaviour. People will no longer be able to get under the pirate ship, and the equipment has been built with fire-retardant wood. The rebuild has had its fair share of controversy, with locals protesting the council’s original plans to replace the pirate ship park with a steel “ghost ship” structure. The council then agreed to rebuild the original pirate ship playground after an online petition bearing more than 2300 signatures and a pirate-themed protest at the September 2015 council meeting. Councillor Tony Hooper, who was one of the residents to lead the charge to rebuild Bayview Park as a pirate ship playground, said it was great to see that people power had prevailed. Cr Hooper said the park had always been a major drawcard for both locals and young families from other areas. “It carries a significance that’s hard to describe,” he said. “It’s a fantastic outcome, and something that people in the area are just going to fall in love with again. “We’ve rebuilt it in a way that’s not exactly like for like, but it’s a ship – and it’s going to delight a lot of kids for generations. “It’s a piece of history that’s been rebuilt, and in a new area, there’s not many places that have got that community connection. To see it come back is just magical.”

Other members to place well include Mitchell Ord, Ava Lazaridis, Max Lees, James Tucker, Saskia Wardlaw and Justin Miller. Sienna and Ava have also scored themselves a spot on the Victorian team. Ms Morgan said, for the first time in two decades, the club will host the state championships at its Hoppers Crossing track next year. The track is undergoing a makeover, with new tarmac to give it bitumen corners, bringing it up to Union Cycliste Internationale standards.

hat can we commuters do about the West Gate Bridge – apart from whingeing? Last week’s tragic accident highlighted what everyone already knows – we need an alternate gateway to and from the west. Politicians of all parties have let us down on this for decades. They have spoken about it, commissioned studies, legislated plans for a solution and even paid for it – then ripped it up and presented another one. The bottom line is, last week the west was effectively shut off from the rest of the city. In all honesty, we all expect that when there is a fatality like last week. What is driving all of us who use the bridge nuts is the daily crawl from the bridge to the tunnel when there is no accident or apparent reason. Lane closures so invisible workers can do invisible work are maddening. The time taken to clear broken down vehicles and those involved in minor accidents is not acceptable. When I am stuck in this constant gridlock, I am not thinking of which political party promised what – I just want it fixed.
People suggest the answer is moving jobs from the city to provincial hubs. In the long term, that is a very sensible option – but it will take time. Even the East Werribee precinct is years away from having a real impact. We are all the victims of political pigheadedness. It is becoming increasing obvious that the East West Link was and is a good idea that, unfortunately, became a political pawn. In a sea of ego, one-upmanship, party politics and personal agendas, a tangible solution to a decades-long ongoing problem was flushed down the gurgler followed by fistfuls of taxpayer money. What’s done is done, but it is now time to find the best solution to the problem. If that means revisiting the past then so be it, because from where I sit (front seat of my Ford, stuck in yet another bumper-to-bumper crawl past the Bradmill site), the time has come for an end to this misery. Put politics aside for once and do what is right for the people. ■
Three survive balcony collapse
Three people escaped serious injury after a balcony collapsed under them at a Point Cook home last week. Paramedics were called to the home about 3.45pm on Sunday, and found a wooden balcony on the second floor collapsed. Three people were taken to hospital with minor injuries. Police believe the balcony may have collapsed due to dry rot.
Artworks for CBD
The fifth annual RED program will be kicking off on December 17 with up to 18 artworks to be installed throughout the Werribee CBD. The temporary works are centred on the colour red. Council arts portfolio-holder Tony Hooper said artists had been given a brief to create three-dimensional works, either smaller than 15 centimetres or larger than 1.5 metres tall.

Road rage appeal bid rejected By Adem Saban A Tarneit man who was jailed for killing a 10-year-old boy in a road rage episode two years ago has had his application for appeal thrown out in the Supreme Court. Ian Bouch was sentenced to eight-and-a-half years behind bars in February this year, after being found guilty of culpable driving causing death and negligently causing serious injury following the death of Yahye Hashi. On May 27, 2014, Bouch deliberately stopped his Audi in front of the van that Yahye’s
mother, Anisa Rage, was driving. Ms Rage was unable to brake in time, and the family’s car was crushed by a truck from behind. Bouch applied for leave to appeal against the sentence and conviction. On November 15 this year, after an oral hearing, Judge Simon Whelan refused the application for reasons to be delivered later. He delivered those reasons last week. “In my view, the sentencing judge’s characterisation of the conduct was clearly correct,� Judge Whelan said. “The applicant deliberately created an emergency for Ms Rage

’’
- Anisa Rage as a form of punishment because he believed she was driving too slowly. This was a shocking example of what is sometimes described as road rage. It fully merited the sentencing judge’s characterisation of it.� Emotional victim impact statements from
Yahye’s family heard in the County Court in February shed light on the pain that came with his death. Yahye’s brother, Bilal Hashi, who was 13 at the time of the crash, said he had lost part of himself and he and his sister Yasmin had trouble sleeping. Ms Rage said she and her husband lived in constant dread and every morning was a struggle to show strength for her children. “There is no prison you can put [Bouch] in that is worse than the prison he has put our family in,� she said in her statement.
A school rich in flavours The flavours of the world were showcased at Alamanda K-9 College last week when the school’s grade 3 pupils hosted their very own food festival. The families of each pupil were tasked with bringing in a plate of traditional food from their culture to share with everyone else, while pupils gave a presentation about living in a culturally diverse society. Grade 3 teacher Suzi Koneski said the food festival gave pupils the chance to embrace their heritage and show appreciation of other cultures. Ms Koneski said there were more than 30 different nationalities represented in the school’s grade 3 classes alone. “It is important for us to understand different cultures because this will aid in better understanding of different celebrations and therefore we will be able to show respect to others,� Ms Koneski said.
“We noticed that celebrations have one thing in common, bringing families and people together. “Even though we might be different we are all similar in many ways.� Charlene Macaulay

At the dance, a destiny
Warning: low flying aircraft on your radar
By Charlene Macaulay They just don’t make love stories like this any more. It was 1942, at a dance in the Yorkshire Dales, when Jean and Douglas Dickinson first laid eyes on each other. She was Yorkshire-born and bred; he had been stationed there as a captain in the British Army. Five weeks later, the two lovebirds were engaged.
‘‘
Point Cook residents, take note: a low-flying aircraft will be hovering over the suburb in the next week as part of flight path safety checks. The Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) will be running the flight path safety checks at 16 aerodromes across the state between December 5-11, including over the Point Cook RAAF base. The checks are carried out every three years to ensure that existing flight paths at the aerodromes continue to be safe. In particular, the checks make sure that any obstacles – towers, trees, masts or buildings – are accurately marked on flight charts, and that no new obstacles exist. A twin-engine Cessna Conquest aircraft will be used to carry out the safety checks with a 35 kilometre radius of each aerodrome. “Low-level flying is an essential part of the safety exercise, with the aircraft down as low as several hundred feet at times,” a CASA statement read. The flight checks come almost a month after Black Hawk helicopters performed high-speed runs close to rooftops in Wyndham and Hobsons Bay as part of the army’s urban counter-terrorism training. The Australian Defence Force exercises included night flights without lights.
… when he gets home, you fall into his arms
’’
- Jean Dickinson
Then World War II erupted and for the next four years, Douglas was sent all over the world to fight. The pair spent those four years writing letters to one another, but there were long stretches of time when the couple didn’t hear from one another. Three other men asked Jean for her hand in marriage during that time, but absence made her heart grow fonder and she waited for her Douglas to come back. “I didn’t know whether he was alive or dead,” she recalls. “Then the war ended, and he rang me up and said he was coming from Coventry to Yorkshire, and he would like to meet me. “I met him, and we went to the movies, and after that we went for a walk, and I went home to my parents and said, ‘I’m going to get married’.” Jean and Douglas wed shortly after, on November 30, 1946. Last week, among family

and friends, they celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary at Manor Court Werribee Aged Care. The Dickinsons, who went on to have three children, four grandchildren and three greatgrandchildren, started off their married lives in England then spent 40 years in New Zealand before moving to Werribee in 1995. Jean, now 92, said the secret to a happy
marriage was to marry a man who travelled a lot for work. “Just as you’ve had enough, they go away, and when he gets home, you fall into his arms because you’ve missed him so much,” she says with a laugh. “But really, tolerance and forgiveness, on both sides.” Douglas, 98, adds: “Compromise. If I want to do one thing, and she wants to do something different, we do what she wants to do.”

Sports upgrades as city grows By Charlene Macaulay Two Wyndham sporting ovals are set for multi-million revamps thanks to a $3 million state government cash injection. The new-look Mossfiel Reserve at Hoppers Crossing will include rugby ovals, a cricket pitch, netball courts, upgraded and unisex change rooms for players and umpires, better lighting, walking and cycling paths, and a state-of-the-art pavilion. The $7.2 million overhaul includes $1.8 million in state funding, and is expected to
be completed by June next year. In Truganina, Mainview Boulevard Reserve will also receive a new pavilion, as well as a meeting space, kitchen, change rooms, showers and toilets, umpires’ rooms, public toilets, a first-aid room, storage space and a cleaner’s room as part of a $2.98 million makeover, including $1.2 million from the state. Locals will have to wait until March 2019 for this project to be complete. The state funding is part of the government’s $50 million growing suburbs fund, which contributes to projects in Melbourne’s outer
suburbs. Wyndham council is footing the rest of the bill for both projects. Council’s sports development portfolio holder Peter Maynard said the projects will help meet the demands of a booming population. “We all know that Wyndham’s population has been growing at an astounding rate for quite some time now,” Cr Maynard said. “This population growth is bringing increased demand for access to sports, in particular cricket. “Over the last three cricket seasons alone,
the number of cricket teams in Wyndham has more than doubled, from 80 to 169. “This new pavilion being built at Mainview Boulevard will help meet that growing demand by accommodating 20 cricket teams.” Cr Maynard said the Mossfiel Reserve upgrade was an example of the council redesigning existing open spaces “to get the most out of them”. “The redevelopment of Mossfiel Reserve will focus on supporting the growth of women’s sport and encourage further participation.”
Wanted: footy women The Werribee-based Glen Orden Football Club is aboard the bandwagon gathering up women to play the national game, Australian Rules. And it wants more women to join it. The club’s division 3 women’s team is on the hunt for more players to guarantee its inclusion in the Western Region Football League next season. Coach Eddie Bryson said that since three other women’s clubs launched in the area, the Glen Orden team had lost half its members. Its women played their first season this year, and Bryson is hoping the club can attract more players to continue on. “There really aren’t any requirements,” he said. “Anybody willing and wanting to give it a crack can.” Bryson, who has been a part of Glen Orden Football Club since 1987, said the club had a great sense of community and was very familyoriented.
“It’s just a joy to be around the club.” Jade De La Rue, captain of the 2016 team, has been playing Aussie rules for 12 years. “I live and breathe it; footy is one of my priorities in life,” she said. “It’s a great way to get fit, and it really brings people together. “The culture at Glen Orden is just great and being in the third division means that anyone can play. “Half our team had never actually touched a footy before joining.” Anyone over the age of 15 is invited to join. For further information or to sign up, call Eddie Bryson on 0420 904 313. Adem Saban

Face-off at farm fringe By Adem Saban
Last week I spoke at an important funding announcement by local Member for Tarneit Telmo Languiller MP also attended by our Deputy Mayor Councillor Kim McAliney, our Sports Development Portfolio Councillor Peter Maynard and Chaffey Ward Councillor Josh Gilligan. We welcomed $3 million of State Government funding - $1.2 million towards the Mainview Boulevard Reserve Pavillion and Community Space in Truganina and $1.8 million towards the Mossfiel Reserve Integrated Sports and Community Hub in Hoppers Crossing. This funding comes from the State Government’s $50 Million Growing Suburbs Fund for local community infrastructure in fast growing outer suburbs. Council will contribute $1.7 million to the Mainview project and $5.4 million to the Mossfiel project. Both are expected to be completed expected in August 2017 and March 2019 respectively and will improve local life, support expanded sporting and other community uses and connections while also providing local jobs. It is good to see funds made available for not only a new area in our City but also for our older areas that need upgrades. As your Mayor I’ll continue to advocate strongly for the needs of all areas, both new and old in Wyndham without fear or favour. Regards, Henry.
Is the future of market gardening in Werribee South on the endangered list? Market gardeners, Wyndham Harbour residents and councillors have questioned where the area’s future lies. What appeared to be a standard update of council policy has opened up a hornet’s nest of questions. In May, the council moved to reaffirm its commitment to its Green Wedge Policy for Werribee South. A two-month community consultation period was met with a mixed response. The council received 44 submissions in relation to the green wedge – 38 called for the area to be rezoned. Several market gardeners claimed that farming in Werribee South is “no longer sustainableâ€?. They said smaller land sizes, chemical and fertiliser costs, low quality water and restricted water allocations were driving farmers off the land. Wyndham Harbour property owners also called for the green wedge to be lifted in order to create seaside towns, similar to Williamstown and Altona. And Cr Intaj Khan, who holds council’s urban futures portfolio, called for the entire area to be rezoned “mixed-useâ€?, suggesting a “tourism precinctâ€? could be the way ahead. Speaking with Star Weekly he said the future of the East Werribee employment precinct would suffer if the green wedge zone remained. He suggested investors would not be attracted to the area with a green wedge “next doorâ€?. “We have established the marina there; it will not be a successful area if it remains a farming zone ‌ we are missing out.â€?
Werribee South market gardens produce a large proportion of the state’s fresh produce. (Joe Mastroianni)
While the council discussed the submissions at its meeting last week, state planning minister Richard Wynne said the government has no plan to lift the area’s green wedge status. “Protecting farmland is a priority ‌ We have a steady pipeline of land coming to market in the growth areas and are planning for more
urban infill areas to keep pace with demand for residential land.� Federal Lalor MP Joanne Ryan said it would be “a backward step� to walk away from agriculture. She said removing agriculture would diminish the diversity of the local economy.

“Wyndham is well placed to take advantage of Australia’s role in the south-east Asian food market. “We produce premium products and, accordingly, we’re paid premium prices. “There are 100 market gardeners in the Werribee irrigation district and a proud
agricultural history – it does no one any good to destroy their way of life and waste this prime agricultural land.” Ms Ryan said proponents of “turning Werribee South into a concrete jungle” also ignore farming’s environmental benefits. Fresh Select chief executive John Said said Werribee South still had at least another 30 years of farming in it. Werribee South produces a large proportion of the state’s fresh produce. Mr Said said scrapping the green wedge would mean a significant amount of Victoria’s vegetable supply would be lost. “We need an overall development plan. We’re a bit too early to be subdividing. What we need to work on is how to become more sustainable.” He said the key to becoming more sustainable is securing water for the farmers and upgrading existing infrastructure. He also flagged the need to assist farmers who want to continue farming, by redirecting them to other areas. More than $11 million was set aside in this year’s state budget to upgrade the irrigation system at Werribee, replacing 39 kilometres of open channels with irrigation pipelines. At the time, state water minister Lisa Neville acknowledged that Werribee irrigators had been “doing it tough”, with ongoing dry conditions and ageing infrastructure. She said the upgrade would secure water supplies for farming into the future. Iramoo ward councillor Heather Marcus has thrown her support behind the green wedge remaining, but: “Only if we can continue to give farmers good quality water at a reasonable price,” she said. Councillors Peter Maynard and Mia Shaw, of Iramoo ward, also said they support the region remaining an agricultural zone.

The ultimate in air-show biz By Adem Saban History, heritage, new technology and impressive aircraft will all be on show at next year’s Australian International Airshow at Avalon. Having grown from a country airshow in outer western Sydney in 1976, the event which moved to Avalon in 1992, now features some of the best on-ground and sky-high displays. Returning to the show in 2017 will be national aerobatics champion Paul Bennett, bringing with him his aerobatic team, The SkyAces.
‘‘
… so many things happening on the ground - Ian Honnery and in the sky
’’
Demonstrating precision while doing formation loops and rolls just two metres apart, the team of three biplanes will be a major feature of the weekend. Mr Bennett says he’s looking forward to returning to Avalon. “The SkyAces have been an international hit overseas, and now we’re excited to be bringing the team back home to Australia’s largest airshow. There’s no crowd like Avalon.” The Lockheed Super Constellation, designed in 1939, will also be making an appearance at the 2017 show. Known as “the Connie”, it was designed as a high-speed, transcontinental passenger aircraft. During the post-war years, 856 units were built. Qantas bought 16 of them for the route to London, but the aircraft was decommissioned in 1977. Australia’s Historic Aircraft Restoration

Society managed to negotiate the purchase of a Connie from the US Air Force and, after restoring the plane, flew it to Australia in 1996. On the ground, military re-enactment groups, decked out in authentic period uniforms, vehicles, artillery and weaponry, will also
take patrons back in time. A new feature will be a drone showcase, featuring live drone demonstrations. Airshow chief executive Ian Honnery says the show will be the “most dynamic pageant of its kind”.
“There will be so many things happening on the ground and in the sky that patrons will be wondering where to look next,” he said. The show at Avalon Airport will run from March 2-5.

Tracker finds west in poor shape By Benjamin Millar A new online tool paints a troubling picture of the health issues in Melbourne’s west. Australia’s Health Tracker by Area, developed by Victoria University in conjunction with the Public Health Information and Development Unit at Torrens University, was launched last week, and provides localised data on chronic diseases and their risk factors.
cent, and greatest rate of overweight or obese people, at 65 per cent. Altona North also has the highest rate of early deaths from cancer at 164 per 100,000, and cardiovascular disease at 103 per 100,000. Footscray, West Footscray and Braybrook have the highest rate of early deaths from respiratory diseases at 27 per 100,000, and highest blood pressure at 36 per cent. Braybrook’s diabetes rate is the west’s highest
The tracker provides details of obesity, high blood pressure, cancer screening, early deaths by chronic disease and suicide rates. VU professor Maximilian de Courten said the data shows wealthier post codes are healthier post codes. “There is a social gradient when it comes to Australia’s biggest killers,” he said. The health tracker shows Altona North has the inner-west’s highest rate of obesity at 30 per
at 6 per 100, and early death by diabetes rate the highest at 16 per 100,000 Laverton has the highest rate of smoking at 24 per cent, almost double the 12.8 per cent national average. Newport and Williamstown people more than 15 years old are most likely to be drinking at ‘risky’ levels, at 19 per cent. Altona has the highest number of deaths by suicide at 15 per 100,000.
Happy to have a chat Eighteen months ago, Jeannine Thorley was looking for a way to volunteer and give back to the community. The Werribee resident often visited her mother at Mercy Place Wyndham and thought combining the two roles was the perfect solution. She now visits the home regularly, undertaking a range of different duties. “No day is the same – helping with exercises to help keep them fit, calling them to tell them functions are happening or even just taking them out into the garden to smell roses,” Ms Thorley said. But the most important of Ms Thorley’s duties is keeping the residents company by just having a chat. “I always pop in just to have a chat with them and see how they’re going,” she said. “A lot of them are lonely and just want somebody to talk to. “We talk about the old days, how things have changed, and footy – a lot of them just love footy.”
The most rewarding part about volunteering at the home, Ms Thorley says, is simply seeing residents smile. Mercy Place Wyndham lifestyle co-ordinator Kerri D’Arcy said volunteers such as Ms Thorley were invaluable. “They each bring their individuality and really enhance the quality of life of residents,” she said. “They become a part of our extended family. “[Ms Thorley’s] added touch that she brings to the home is her sense of humour, dry wit, genuine personality and gentleness.” Adem Saban

Slip, slop and sun smart By Charlene Macaulay

Festive fun at the Lakes
LILLY, 16-MONTHS
(Damjan Janevski)
It’s never been more important to slip, slop, slap, seek and slide. Summer is officially here and the Cancer Council is calling on Wyndham locals to be sun smart and prevent getting sunburnt. The Cancer Council’s National Sun Protection Survey reveals that only 37 per cent of Victorian adults wear sunscreen when outdoors on summer weekends, and only 38 per cent wear a hat. Closer to home, there are 29 cases of melanoma diagnosed in Wyndham each year. SunSmart manager Heather Walker said it was concerning that adults risked getting sunburnt, and in turn getting skin cancer, by not taking simple preventative measures. “There’s no doubt that by neglecting to slap on a broad-brim hat and cover their skin, Victorians are increasing their cancer risk,” she said. Australasian College of Dermatologists’ president Chris Baker said that dermatologists regularly treated skin cancers that could have been easily prevented through proper sun protection. “Dermatologists see a lot of skin cancers on the face, ears, head and neck,” Associate Professor Baker said. “These skin cancers are particularly concerning because they can arise quickly and are more difficult to treat. “It’s important to remember that skin cancer can be prevented and, if detected early, can often be successfully treated. “If you notice any changes in size, shape or colour of an existing spot, or the development of a new spot, you should get it checked as soon as possible.”
‘Tis the season to be jolly. Deck the Halls and other popular Christmas carols were all the rage in Sanctuary Lakes at the weekend for the 11th annual Christmas at the Lakes event. Thousands flocked to Breezewater Reserve on Saturday to indulge in live performances and Christmas carols by professional local talent and school children. Children’s rides and an animal farm, face-painting, food and craft stalls, a special visit from Santa and fireworks were also on display.

Rubii and Addasyn with Santa. (Charlene Macaulay)
A very special Santa For three-year-old Addasyn, meeting Santa has usually resulted in tears. But this year, the little one, who has autism and global development delays, and her six-year-old sister Rubii were all smiles when visiting the big man in the red suit. Pacific Werribee has been giving the families of special-needs children a helping hand this Christmas by offering a ‘Sensory Santa’ photo experience, where kids can get their Santa snaps before the centre opens without encountering the usual hustle and bustle of Christmas shopping. The sensory experience gives children and their parents some special time with Santa in a low-stress environment. Mum Kira Stemm said she was thrilled with the result. “Every other year, we’ve had trouble
[with normal Santas] and felt rushed,” she said. “This was our first time visiting Sensory Santa, a wonderful experience for my daughter Addasyn as it gave her the chance to experience Santa like all other children. She just needed a little more time to warm to him. “The staff were aware of my children’s needs and took the time to make them feel comfortable – not hurry the session.” Pacific Werribee centre manager Jonathan Codman added: “Everyone should be able to enjoy our magical Santa set, in their own time and own way.” The Sensory Santa sessions continue until December 18.

SMS alerts for water warnings By Goya Dmytryshchak Beachgoers can sign up for SMS alerts notifying them of unsafe water quality, as last summer’s data shows people were cautioned against swimming for a third of the season. Altona, Williamstown and Werribee South recorded 20 or 21 days when the water quality was ranked ‘fair’, meaning it may not be suitable for swimming.
The beaches had seven or eight days when the water was rated ‘poor’; that is, it was definitely not suitable for swimming. For water quality, Werribee South was ranked 28th out of Melbourne’s 36 bay beaches, while Altona came in at 19th and Williamstown 14th. The Environment Protection Authority’s applied sciences group manager, Anthony Boxshall, said water quality at the three western suburbs beaches was affected by stormwater
Water trespass warning Almost $100,000 of damage has been caused by break-ins at Western Water reservoirs and storage tank reserves in the past few months. The water company is urging people to be on the lookout after intruders damaged fences to gain entry to some sites. Water systems and solutions acting manager Rod Curtis said the incidents had been reported to police, but they are unsure why the reservoirs and tank areas are being targeted. Each break-in has cost Wester Water $20,000 to repair the fences, $5000 to test the water quality and an additional $5000 for manpower, Mr Curtis said. He said the organisation needs to be hypervigilant after each break-in and ensure the water has not been contaminated. “We have to commit a huge amount of resources to understand if the water is safe … you can never know for sure before testing it out,” he said. “Even a small breach of the fences can escalate the situation.” People found guilty of entering drinking

water storage areas face fines of up to $9300, or six months’ imprisonment for a first offence. Western Water will increase security measures at its sites, but Mr Curtis has urged people to stay out. “These assets are providing water to the community, and if tanks have to be taken offline, there are huge ramifications,” he said. “This includes water outages or notices. “It’s important, if people have seen something, to say something.” Sumeyya Ilanbey

drains. “Williamstown, Altona and Werribee South beaches generally have suitable water quality for swimming during fine weather,” Dr Boxshall said. “All three can have poor bacterial water quality during and after rain due to stormwater pollution from nearby stormwater drains and waterways. Werribee South beach is the most susceptible to stormwater pollution out of the three due to its location near the mouth of the
Werribee River. During rain events, pollutants in runoff wash down stormwater channels and out into the bay, making nearby beaches unsafe for swimming from increased risk of illness.” Dr Boxshall said people should avoid swimming near stormwater or river outlets for 24 to 48 hours after heavy rain due to higher risk of illness such as gastroenteritis from high bacteria levels.

I did that when my children were growing up, and followed on when my grandchildren were going to school. I’ve always loved horse racing and attended the Werribee race track meetings. I used to play squash a lot, and now I play tennis. Earlier this year the council decided to name the new outdoor netball courts at Eagle Stadium in your honour. You must be quite involved in netball too. I love netball. I’ve been involved in the game for 48 years locally. I played and captained a team for 25 years. I’ve also coached, and was a member of the Werribee Netball Association
committee back when that was around. I still umpire netball today. How many people do you think you’ve coached or umpired for over the past five decades? I have absolutely no idea! Whoever has taken part in netball in that time! What do you love most about netball? Just being able to play the game was the best part. Now, umpiring and giving back to the girls. The fitness involved in netball is great and just meeting new people. Back to Werribee: what’s changed over the past 51 years? The town itself has grown so much. Back then you knew everyone and every shop down the street. Now it’s a city! The sporting facilities have changed heaps, that’s a welcome change. This big stadium [Eagle Stadium] we have now is just so much better than the outdoor court we had at Soldiers Reserve. Would you ever leave Werribee? No, I’ve never even thought about it. I’ve got everything I need here.

Members of Werribee and Laverton Credit Co-ops will meet next Tuesday and vote on a move to merge both organisations. Directors of Laverton and Werribee Credit Unions, after several months of negotiation, have unanimously agreed to recommend the merger of both co-ops. The merger, if accepted by its members, would create one of the largest credit co-operatives in Australia.
The Victorian Liberal Party leader, Jeff Kennett, gave a commitment that the worst industrial toxic wastes (intractable wastes) would not be treated “in Werribee or anywhere in Victoria” under a Liberal government. However, his commitment did not exclude the bulk of Victorian industrial waste, much of which is hazardous and toxic, but for which there are environmentally acceptable disposal methods.
Almost a quarter of a million visitors are expected to visit Victoria’s Open Range Zoo At Werribee within the next few years. The figure was released following yesterday’s opening of new $7 million facilities at the zoo and the introduction of a range of African animals including its first carnivores. Cheetahs, Australia’s only vervet monkeys, serval cats and meerkats were shipped in from zoos around the world.
Wyndham faces the prospect of its police operating only during business hours as the force buckles under the strain of resource shortages, a growing workload, and an exodus of officers to regional taskforces. The alarming state of Werribee policing was revealed in a leaked memo from the head of the city’s police, Inspector Shane Dowling, to senior force management, in which he details exhaustion and low morale among his officers.

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
CONSIDER THE SAUCE We all know Kenny Weir’s penchant for burgers … well … Running ahead of time, I decide to take the scenic route to Altona’s Harrington Square, but as I pass Bezirk cafe on Millers Road, I feel a twinge of guilt. I’d exchanged emails a while back with one of Bezirk’s proprietors with a view to doing a CTS review – but we simply haven’t got around to it yet. Now here I am, heading to another Altona cafe to do the biz on the eve of its big opening! Oh well … happily, after I enter Birdcage Cafe Altona, I discover the couple behind it, Adrian and Cath Davey, are the very same folks who run Bezirk – problem solved … or rather, no problem at all! Adrian tells me their initial focus in opening a sister joint for Bezirk ran more along the lines of a hole-in-the-wall operation. But when they found and secured 7 Harrington Square, they decided there was no other way for it than to run with gusto, with the greater space at hand. And a lovely space it is, too. It’s kinda minimalist, but in a warming way. Naturally, Birdcage Cafe is doing a fine line in brekkies, including breakfast pumpkin gnocchi and apple crumble pancakes. But with more room, and more room to cook, Birdcage Cafe is going further than Bezirk in terms of lunch offerings, running to – for instance – a Thai beef salad and a grilled salmon. I’m told the menu testing has all been done, and I’m on hand for a sort-of softish opening
BIRDCAGE CAFE ALTONA Address: 7 Harrington Square, Altona Phone: 0414 224 821 for friends and family. So my lunch options are limited to the burgers … no matter. Now, take it on board that my lunch has been prepared in the knowledge it is to be eaten by a food writer and that I did not pay for it. That said … IMO (in my opinion) this fried chicken burger ($17) is a sensation! There’s nothing particularly sophisticated about it, but … A massive slab of crisp, juicy and tasty fried chook; cheese; rough-cut, excellent coleslaw; a single rasher of very good bacon. Excellent chips on the side. Really top stuff, it all is. And so substantial that I have no room left for a chunk of Nutella baklava. Adrian tells me they’re creating some of their sweet treats in-house, but are sourcing others from local specialists, such as Fresh Prince of Baklava. Also keeping the righteous local vibe going are meat from Paddock to Table in Laverton and hams and the like from Sycamore Deli in Altona. My cafe latte is marvellous.

ADVERTORIAL
Building a city on a safe road network Wyndham is a big municipality with lots of roads for the council to manage – 1345 kilometres, to be precise. This equates to 17,697 jumbo jets – or 67,250 D class trams – lined up end to end. Each year for the past 10 years, Wyndham City council has added an extra 50 kilometres of new roads, on average, and in the 2015-16 financial year, invested more than $7 million on road maintenance, $3 million on asphalt re-surfacing and $9 million on road upgrades and rebuilds. Wyndham City Mayor Henry Barlow said there is plenty more work yet to come to improve the city’s road network.
‘‘
With Wyndham [growing] … a top-notch road network - Henry Barlow is a must
’’
“Maintaining and improving Wyndham’s expansive system of roads is a big job, and one that council is constantly working on,” Cr Barlow said. “Council’s own research consistently shows us that roads and transport in Wyndham are two of the most important issues for residents. “That’s why we have $28 million of road works planned for this financial year alone.” This includes $4 million to widen Dohertys Road between Fitzgerald and Foundation roads, $3.5 million to widen Tarneit Road between Hogans Road and the Good News Lutheran School, and $8 million on Armstrong Road between Greens Road and Black Forest Road. “There are also 124 kilometres of VicRoads’ managed roads in Wyndham,” the mayor said.
Wyndham City council is responsible for the upkeep of 1345 kilometres of local roads. (Supplied)
“Council works hard to lobby for state government funding to upgrade these roads. “We recently welcomed $1.8 billion in funding from the state government for vital road upgrades here and in Melbourne’s west.
“With Wyndham’s population continuing to grow, and with plans to revitalise Werribee’s city centre and bring more jobs to Wyndham, a top-notch road network is a must,” Cr Barlow said.

An exercise in mindset
(Pictures: iStock)
Lessons from a special forces trainer. By Sarah Berry
This is pathetic. You should be able to do better. Why aren’t you trying harder? For 10 kilometres, as I scrambled up rocks and through dirt trails, I berated myself. It was three months since I started training with special forces strength and conditioning coach, Kevin Toonen. Originally, I was expecting to pick up some interesting training tips from someone who spent 15 years in the military and not only
trains but also helps select some of the country’s fittest. After all, more people have climbed Everest than completed the SAS selection process worldwide, Toonen informs me. I did pick up training tips, but what I really got from the sessions was something I didn’t expect. Physical ability is only an accessory, Toonen tells me at our first meeting. Rather, it is mindset that makes the difference to what we achieve.
“I think what most people lack these days is grit and determination,” Toonen says. “Physically you can train anyone to do anything – to a certain point. Genetics play a part, but the average person is never going to hit their genetic potential.” Why? “People will do themselves out of a session before it’s even started. They’ll start coming up with excuses,” he says.

“There’s a big difference between having worn a path in your brain about ‘Well, I feel tired today so I won’t do this’ or ‘I didn’t eat well last night, I won’t sleep well’, so we come up with excuses about why it’s already OK to fail as opposed to ‘Well, I’ll give it 100 per cent and keep going until I stop’. “We put soldiers in a different league. You have to remember that they all have families, they all get yelled at from their wives, they all get tired, they all come from a normal background … it’s about becoming a complete person and mastering whatever they’re in.” At our first session I make a mental note against my many excuses and what has become habitual when I work out: never pushing myself to my limit. I don’t like the discomfort and, since intense sport training during my school years, frankly have not seen the point. Over the next three months I inevitably get smashed once a week and inevitably swear at Kev under my breath, but I also try to pay attention to how I deal with the sessions mentally and whether it can be an exercise in presence and staying relaxed (oddly yogic concepts from an army man) under physical pressure. By challenging ourselves mentally, becoming aware of our attitude (and excuses), we tap into different parts of ourselves and shatter false identity, he says. “A lot of people choose not to see something because it will cause them pain or discomfort,” Toonen explains. “At least 80 per cent of people have a cognitive bias towards avoidance – they choose not to
do something because it’s going to cause them short-term pain instead of looking towards ‘OK if I do this now it will be good for here, here and here’. “It’s about personal growth. Have you raised your expectations? Have you raised yourself physically and mentally?” This is because not only does exercise improve our physical and mental fitness and quite literally allow us to move through life better, it also improves how we think and feel about ourselves, which feeds into all areas. “From my background, I’ve seen remarkable things from unremarkable individuals – purely because our brain is capable of telling our bodies to do much more,” Toonen says. “The hardest thing you’ve done – that’s where
you’ll cap your expectations at. Your personal growth, your physical growth, that’ll be it. “Every time you make a tiny gain in here, in terms of your physicality, you can relate it back to the rest of your life. You never thought you’d get there, but you did. “Then you can start asking better questions of yourself, because you can see another possibility from taking another step. All the old ideas have been washed away and instead of asking yourself what I can’t do, you ask yourself what you can do. Can you improve your position by 1 per cent? In 10 steps, you will get to 10 per cent.” And so I push, and keep trying to develop awareness about how I hold myself back and create excuses in my own life – not just with

exercise, but with everything. It has changed my attitude to exercise. In the end of the Manly Dam trail race, I wasn’t far off finishing in the top five females and, although I had negative self talk, I noticed it and stayed present in my body as I moved, paying attention to my own response to discomfort. I also asked myself the questions: “Can you try any harder right now?” The response was “No”. “Are you giving it your 100 per cent right now?” The answer was “Yes”. And that’s all any of us can do – until we break through and find a new 100 per cent, which really, is only a matter of time and a matter of mindset. - The Age

Until next April pril 17, the museum is staging the Australian National Maritime Museum’s interactive exhibition based on the bestselling Horrible Histories books. Entitled Horrible Histories – Pirates: The Exhibition, Exhibition and produced in association with Scholastic Children’s Books, the exhibition brings author T Terry erry Deary’s and illustrator Martin Brown’s unique approach to bringing history to life with foul facts, lively illustrations and gruesome games. Families amilies will be transported back to the days when perilous pirates ruled the seas, and they’ll be challenged to discover if they have what it takes to be a really horrible pirate. They hey can take command of a pirate ship, design their own pirate flag and try out different weapons – from cutlasses to cannons. The he audience will learn their fate on a wheel of misfortune and discover the best loot to steal ... and they can take a pirate selfie. Along long the way, discoveries will be made about why pirate women were just as wicked as the men, and chances will be offered to practise talking the patois of pirates. Visitors learn about the ships the pirates sailed on, the punishments they suffered and the rules they lived by. Horrible Histories has been filling children’s heads with foul facts since 1993. It’s the world’s best-selling children’s history series, with more than 60 titles published. It’s been seen on ABC3 for the past six seasons and is award-winning. The theatre shows, created with Birmingham Stage Company, are in their 10th year and have toured extensively around the world, including a sell-out performance at Sydney Opera House in 2014. Horrible Histories – Pirates: The Exhibition,, National Wool Museum, 26 Moorabool Street, Geelong. Opens 10am daily until April 17. Inquiries: 5272 4812 or nwm.vic.gov.au.

For more information on events, visit www.wyndham.vic.gov.au/whats-on
Packages range from a range of tasty finger food, through to spit roasts and formal sit-down dining. Vegetarian and gluten-free options are available. Hot buffet menus are a popular choice – expect to sample dishes such as Kashmir lamb curry, teriyaki chicken and quiche lorraine, as well as classic spag bol, and everything in between … perhaps a traditional bread and butter pudding to finish. “Whilst the centre is booked out until Christmas, there are a range of booking times available in the new year and into the Autumn. Popular dates are filling fast so book now.” Werribee Racing Club, 2 Bulban Road, Werribee. Inquiries: 9741 1800 or admin@werribee.countryracing.com.au

SPORT Middle order struggles for Centrals Werribee Centrals was struck down by an all-too-familiar middle order batting collapse in its 108-run first innings loss to Glenroy in the VTCA north-west division at Sewell Reserve on Saturday. The Centurions needed everything to go right to be in with a chance of chasing down the Roys’ big total of 244, but lost the last six wickets for 26 runs to be all out for 136. Centurions’ captain Luke Allister could see light at the end of the tunnel for his winless side when it marched confidently to 4-110, but the glimmer was quickly taken away by Glenroy’s spin star Steve Goodwin, who left a trail of destruction, taking 7-23 off 21.5 overs. “It was pretty disappointing, but it’s probably the story of the year for us so far,” Allister said. “Those middle order collapses are just killing us at the moment. We had a pretty good start, we were 4-110 and the next thing you know we’re all out for 136.”
Werribee Centrals were not the first and will certainly not be the last side to fall to the magic of Goodwin, a former sub-district stalwart with Roxburgh Park-Broadmeadows, who is wreaking havoc through batting orders across the north-west. The veteran has taken a mind-boggling 29 wickets at an average of 7.9 in five games … that was his fifth five-wicket haul of the season. “As soon as he came on, we sort of struggled to play him,” Allister said. “The way he was bowling, he was very crafty. “The ball was skidding on the wicket and blokes weren’t playing him very well, and getting themselves trapped in front. He was definitely the difference in the game.” Werribee Centrals is a little downcast to be without a win, but some signs are positive. A second innings half century to Jordan Birch (51no) was encouraging, while Danny Williams and Agha Adeel have been
consistently good at the top of the order. All three have been threatening a game-breaking score without going on with the job. “People are getting starts, but we need someone to go on and make that big score that will take us home,” Allister said. A newly constructed team in the off season, Werribee Centrals will take time to mesh, but Allister believes a breakthrough victory is not far off. “It’s been pretty testing so far, but we’re still a brand new team,” he said. “We’ve only played five games together and, obviously, are a completely different side to last year. “We’ve just got to keep working hard.” Werribee Centrals has one last chance for a breakthrough win before Christmas, against Pascoe Vale Hadfield at Galvin Park in a two-dayer starting on Saturday. Lance Jenkinson
IN THE DOGHOUSE Last week I wrote about how the Bulldogs’ premiership affected past players like Doug Hawkins, but this week I saw a video that really brought home to me how much the win meant to so many people involved at the club. Former player and coach Ian ‘Bluey’ Hampshire lives in a nursing home and is battling several health issues, but when a few old teammates brought him the cup recently, it was very touching to see his reaction and just how much it meant to him. Bluey was a great servant of the red, white and blue … he played 111 games, kicked 73 goals and was runner-up in the 1979 best and fairest to Ian Dunstan. When the club sacked Royce Hart in 1982, Bluey stepped in as senior coach for a season and a half. The players of the day loved him … and still do.

■ Sad
to hear of the passing of Nino Arrigo last week after a courageous battle over the past few years. Nino was a well-known Werribee identity through his family business Werribee Glass, and his service to the west through the Werribee Rotary Club was widely acknowledged. Nino was a very determined man, best illustrated by a bike ride from Perth to Melbourne for charity in 1992, raising more than $150,000 for cancer research. He was a very good footballer as well, playing for Werribee in the VFL from 1970 to 1978. He will best be remembered as a generous, decent, caring man who always had a smile. My condolences to Elaine, his family and many friends.
■ Some
well known western suburbs sportsmen have gone into the fitness business together with the latest franchise of F45 opening in Hoppers Crossing. Dion Golotta, Michael Czepil, Mark Rizza and Chris Black are behind the new venture, which has centres opening up across Melbourne. One of the men behind the original concept is Mark Armstrong former head of fitness for Werribee Football Club. Several AFL players are involved in other suburban branches.
■ The
Bees bask in a top win By Lance Jenkinson Times have been tough for Werribee in Bowls Victoria division 1 this season. That makes it all the more sweeter for the Bees when they register a win. The Bees claimed their second in eight games on Saturday when they took down Sunbury 81 (16)-70 (2) at Chirnside Park. It was just what the doctor ordered to breathe some life into Werribee’s top side. “It was a good win,” Bees skip Snowy Barker said. “They’d been going all right, Sunbury, but we mixed our sides up a bit and it went OK. Everyone was happy just to get a win. It gives us a bit of breathing space [from the relegation zone] and keeps us competitive down there.”
Werribee was impressive in disposing of Sunbury. In a consistent display across the board, the Bees claimed three of the four rinks with Rob Panton finishing up six, while Barker and Mick O’Neil were both plus-four. Could this be a turning point in Werribee’s season? Saturday’s trip to Essendon, a side that is sitting two spots above the Bees on the ladder, will provide a good indication. The Bombers have also been up and down this season, but they are going in with winning form after upsetting high-flying Deer Park last start. It is a must-win for both sides if they are to get back into the finals mix. “We’re not taking them lightly,” Barker said. “They’re going to be a formidable opponent
there after their win last week, so we’ll have to play at our best. “Our win put confidence in ourselves that we can play a reasonably competitive game. “The strength of our side and quality of the players is not like we’ve had in the past, but we can still be confident.” In Werribee’s men’s singles championships on Sunday, Barker went down to Panton 25-17 in a hard-fought final. “He played very well and it was a thoroughly deserved win,” Barker said. In division 3, Hoppers Crossing sunk to a 78 (14)-58 (4) loss to Yarraville-Footscray, leaving it in third place on the ladder. Hoppers will be aiming to get back on track when it hosts a one-win Melton side on Saturday.

final days of the November transfer window were not a frenzy, and players and clubs will now wait till the New Year to make any big moves. It was noticeable that Sanctuary Lakes has been hit with seven players asking to cross to Wyndham Suns and three of those were WRFL team of the year players in 2016. That kind of exodus is not good for any club.

Giants pip Brewers in a thriller to remain on top
Reece Haywood produced an energetic performance in the field for the Werribee Giants. (Damian Visentini)
Werribee Giants have escaped with a thrilling 11-10 win over Ballarat City Brewers after a rollercoaster ride in its Baseball Victoria division 2 contest at Prince of Wales Park on Sunday. It was the second time this season that Werribee has recorded a one-run win over the Brewers, a team struggling on the lower rungs of the ladder that seems to bring its best to the table when facing the Giants. Werribee coach Charles Thompson expected nothing less from the Brewers, or any other team his side confronts now, with the Giants perched top of the ladder. “With us being on top of the ladder, every team that we play are going to come with their best to knock us off that top spot,” he said. “Our guys were up for the challenge.” On a day when 21 runs were scored, you would be forgiven for thinking the pitchers got touched up and the fielding was below standard.
But that was not the case for Werribee’s three unearned runs, and spectacular plays in the field made up for these. “Defensively, we had guys making plays like they were on ESPN,” Thompson said. “Trent Evins made a diving catch at shortstop on a line drive up the middle, Reece Haywood was making quite a few running catches over the back going in the shallow centre field and shallow right field down the foul line. “So, defensively, it was great.” Josh Lee started well on the mound for Werribee, but ran into trouble, with bases loaded before the call was made to the bullpen. Youngster Connor Wilson was entrusted to get the Giants out of the jam, and did so with aplomb. “He’s very young, but very talented … He came into this game with bases loaded and struck out one, then got a ground ball play to get us out of the innings with no run recorded. “It definitely could’ve been a different story,
so credit to him for stepping up big time.” John Curnow worked in relief for Werribee before Evins closed out a wild game. Werribee’s batters were on-song all game with John Curnow the standout, going three-from-four with two doubles, a single and three RBIs. Wilson, Todd Kriehn and Oliver Box also came up with big hits at important times. “It was a real good offensive game,” Thompson said. “We had 14 hits on the day.” Werribee will be out to preserve their buffer on a busy week when they face Berwick Wednesday at Melbourne Ballpark, followed by a western derby with Williamstown at President’s Park on Saturday. In women’s division 2, Werribee had a heavy 16-8 loss to Essendon on their home diamond at President’s Park last Saturday. The one-win Giants will make the short trip to third-placed Footscray this Saturday. Lance Jenkinson

Leigh Edwards punishes the ball to the leg side for Seabrook on Saturday. (Damjan Janevski)
Saint hits a winning ton By Lance Jenkinson Seabrook captain Leigh Edwards rode his luck en route to a match-winning century in Saturday’s 66-run win over Williamstown Congs in VTCA west A1 at Bruce Comben Reserve. Edwards was dropped twice on his way to 108, but those were mere blips in an otherwise confident innings in which everything seemed to come off for the Saints’ leader. “I got lucky, I got dropped twice, but other than that I was hitting them pretty cleanly,” Edwards said. “It was one of those days where everything was coming off the right way, minus the two dropped catches. “The wicket ended up playing pretty well, so you could get yourself in and hit through the line.” Seabrook had been set a relatively small 137 target for first-innings points. 90 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ DECEMBER 7, 2016
The Saints expected their home pitch to break up under the sun later on day two, so they had no plans of sticking around and tempting fate. “Small targets can be tricky but we knew we had to make the runs pretty quickly,” Edwards said. “I just went out and tried to knock it over as quick as possible and luckily got away with it a couple of times.” A feature of Seabrook’s win was the all-round contribution. The Saints have been criticised in recent seasons for being too reliant on their top-end talent to get the job done, but that seems to be a thing of the past. “I back our guys in 100 per cent,” Edwards said. “We’re a pretty solid team this year and everyone seems to be switched on.” Gun youngsters Mitchell Haberecht (5-32), a left-arm paceman, and Tom Flynn (3-35), a right-arm quick, had their fingerprints all over the victory.
“They’re two young fellas who are really finding their form and really starting to fill their shoes in senior cricket,” Edwards said. Medium pacer Dhaval Patel also made his mark with an economical 2-15 off 14 overs. With 11 wickets at an average of 9.9, Patel is far and away the Saints’ most dependable bowler. “He nibbles around both ways and could basically hit a two dollar coin if you put it on the pitch,” Edwards said. “You can set your 7-2 fields for him and know he’s not going to drop one down the leg side.” The Saints remain undefeated in fourth spot on the ladder, having experienced a couple of draws brought about by Melbourne’s fickle weather. The Saints will be aiming to go into Christmas with an unblemished record when they face Bellbridge at Mossfiel Reserve in the final game for the year.
The Footscray Cycling Club’s Legends Criteriums were held on Sunday on the fast and furious Drake Boulevard circuit in Altona. The annual event, held in honour of the late Harry Jones and Hugh Cram, as well as club living legend Frank Zanatta, is hotly contested due to the immense respect club members have for the three club legends and their dedication to cycling in general and the Footscray Cycling Club. Adding drama to the racing, riders contested two races in one – a single point was awarded to the first rider to finish each lap, the rider with the most points at the end of the races taking the points race prize, while the coveted memorial sash went to the overall winner. The A-grade race was dominated by incessant breakaways that broke up the bunch, with club criterium and road champion Dom Dudkiewicz taking both the points race and the criterium wins. But it wasn’t easy, the 32-year-old Melton resident being challenged by Matthias Kiernan and Nick Leonard at every point. “You don’t often get the pleasure of winning a memorial in the presence of one of the living legends in Frankie Zanatta, so it was a real pleasure,” Dudkiewicz said. The B-grade race was dominated by a masterful one-man breakaway from Joe Bury, who crushed the point score race, only to be denied the race win by a small margin by 32-year-old Sunbury resident Daniel Standen. In C grade, veteran FCC racer Bob Shannon rode a measured, strategic race to take the sprint win, with Phil Tehan taking the points race. In D grade, Doug Page secured a win in the points race, with veteran time trial expert Tommy Gray nailing the race victory with a masterful solo break.

Hoppers Crossing calls on firepower to topple Balwyn Hoppers Crossing is hellbent on making Saturday the most uncomfortable day of sub-district cricket that ladder-leader Balwyn experiences this summer. The winless Cats have been written off by all and sundry, but undefeated Balwyn have been warned by their unfancied opponents that victory is not a fait accompli. If there is one aspect of their game the Cats can hang their hat on so far this season, it’s their bowling department. The Cats produced 185 with the bat, not a large total, but one that skipper Greg Kennedy believes can be defended. To show how serious the Cats are about defending the score, they bowled three overs of fireworks late on day one that was a mere entree
to what Balwyn can expect when play resumes on Saturday. “They won’t be sleeping as easy as they hoped they might be,” Kennedy said. “We gave them a nice introduction – we were hostile as a fielding unit, we got stuck into them, and they know we’re a quality bowling line-up. “Brett [Smith] and I can’t wait to fly that new ball and have a couple of nicks through to the keeper.” Every ball counts when you are defending a low total. Hoppers Crossing will need to be disciplined with the ball and alert in the field. The Cats want to create some perceived pressure with their enthusiasm in the field, much like Balwyn did to them on Saturday. “The fieldsmen always help create the
atmosphere, both in their actions charging after the ball and making sure we cut off every run, but also with the noise and atmosphere we create,” Kennedy said. “That excitement and belief, showing the batsmen we believe we’re going to win, is particularly important. “Balwyn was really good at doing that, and I’d like to think we can match that.” Hoppers Crossing was a little underwhelmed with a score of 185. The Cats probably should have set a bigger target considering the bulk of the runs were made by Sanka Abeyruwan (85) and Kaluwahandi Prasad (40). On a bright note, the Cats are trending in the right direction with the bat, following a horror streak that saw them bowled out for 105, 103 and 19 in their past three digs.

Tiger Kelly puts ’em in a spin
Jonathan Burton has taken 12 wickets at 17.5 this season. (Damian Visentini)
By Lance Jenkinson Everything was going at a million miles an hour. Werribee was taking wickets at a rapid rate and Croydon’s run rate was soaring on the back of the free-wheeling Aaron Fenton. The wickets were handy for the Tigers, but the runs were coming a little too easily for Fenton, much to the chagrin of Tigers skipper Tim O’Brien. So O’Brien turned to spinner Michael Kelly to bring about the downfall of the dangerous Fenton, who had amassed a blazing 61 of Croydon’s first 76 runs. Like the other bowlers, Kelly suffered a bit of stick in the form of a couple of boundaries, but he would have the last laugh with the dismissal of Fenton. The wicket proved to be the turning point on an extremely positive day for Werribee. The Tigers rolled Croydon for just 138 and returned fire to be 1-64 at stumps and in a commanding position. “It was a good time for Mick Kelly to come up and get his scalp,” O’Brien said with a hint of relief in his voice. “He [Fenton] could’ve made 150 by tea the way he was going. “I thought he was going to take Mick on, so we’d be a chance to take his wicket. “He hit him for a couple of boundaries and tried to go again and Mick got him out stumped.” This was not only Kelly’s spotlight to take. There was hardly a weak link for Werribee with the ball, in the field and later with the bat.
All five bowlers got among the wickets, wicketkeeper Mason Frenkel took a catch to go with the crucial stumping of Fenton, O’Brien pulled the right reins as captain and then Adam Alifraco (35no) and Shaun Dean (11no) guided the Tigers to stumps. Jonathan Burton’s bowling performance was the icing on the cake. He took 4-45 off 14.3 overs to continue his great start to the season. “He’s started the year really well and picked
‘‘
[Burton] can bowl all day, he never gets - Tim O’Brien fatigued
’’
up where he left off last season,” O’Brien said. “Pretty much with Jono, you know what you’re going to get. “He can bowl all day, he never gets fatigued so he’s one guy you can rely on with the ball to settle in.” While just about everything transpired perfectly for Werribee on day one, it’s not taking first innings points to the bank just yet. O’Brien asked his batsmen to start their innings with an element of caution, knowing how tricky the conditions were at the Croydon Oval. Still, with just 75 runs to get and nine wickets in hand, Werribee will be hot favourites entering day two on Saturday. “It’s still going to be hard work next week,” O’Brien said. “The wicket is not an absolute belter, so we’ll have to bat well to get these 70-odd runs.”

Cats claim big scalp Hoppers Crossing has broken through for its landmark first win in the Women’s Community Cricket Competition north-west division. The Cats upset in-form Craigieburn by 18 runs in an absorbing Twenty20 encounter at Hogans Road Reserve on Saturday. It took a season-best score of 30 from opener Kayla Koropeckyj and a captain’s knock of 35 from Ashleigh Mills to steer the Cats to a competitive 4-117 off 20 overs. Late runs from Lindsay Tucker (10no) and Madalyn Smith (8no) proved vital for the Cats. Needing 5.85 runs an over for victory, Craigieburn could not keep up with the required run rate, losing a steady stream of wickets. They finished on 5-99 with most of the damage for Hoppers Crossing created by Brianna Herman, who took 3-21 off four overs.
“It’s good and it’s bad,” Kennedy said. “It shows that we’re good enough – we had a couple of good partnerships and we set up the game to give ourselves a chance to win. “At the same time, losing two lots of four wickets for 10 or 15 runs shows we still haven’t all applied ourselves properly to put the game away. “Having said that, it was quite a tough wicket to bat on, a bit up and down with a big crack down the middle, so at no stage did you really feel like you were in out there,” he said. “Our bowling line-up will like that, and we think we’re a really good shot … if we bowl well, we can get the points.”
