By Charlene Macaulay A Tarneit resident has been left flabbergasted after finding out she cannot get home internet access – and it seems she’s not alone. Daniella Camillo has not been able to get either ADSL or NBN since moving from Warrnambool to Tarneit Gardens more than 10 months ago. That’s despite trying numerous telecommunications companies, including Telstra, Dodo and iiNet. Ms Camillo, a Star Weekly employee, has been told there are not enough ports in her area to connect her to the internet. She said it beggared belief that she couldn’t get internet access in this day and age. “I thought, it’s been 10 months; surely the problem has been fixed by now,” she said. “I’m forking out extra money for data on my mobile because I can’t
get fixed-price internet at home.” Star Weekly used its Facebook page last week to ask residents if they had trouble getting ADSL or NBN at home. It turns out there are plenty. Leanne said she had also been told there were no ports available, and she was paying $49 a month for “a really unreliable” wifi connection. “At times I’ve had to use my mobile phone as a wireless hotspot to be able to get in to the internet on my home laptop,” she said. Erin said that when she moved to Manor Lakes six years ago, she “had to wait until someone left the neighbourhood before we could nab a port”. Kristen added: “We moved into Manor Lakes without checking internet connection, thinking that it’s a major, important thing everyone has. Wrong! Bam, no internet available. The NBN isn’t available for another two years and Telstra

No ports in internet storm won’t upgrade a dying network, therefore there are no available ports.” Meanwhile, business owner Dean Rogers, who moved his store REMS RC from Brooklyn to Old Geelong Road in Hoppers Crossing six months ago, said he was originally told he could not get internet access in store. He eventually
managed to secure an internet connection, but said he was lucky to get double dial-up speed. He has been told he faces an 18-month wait for NBN. “I’ve got full HD cameras throughout the place, and I can’t get a good enough internet connection to view my cameras from home,” he said. “It’s been the most frustrating thing.” A Telstra spokesman confirmed there were internet black spots within Ms Camillo’s estate. A Department of Communications and Arts spokesman confirmed there were no available ADSL ports in Ms Camillo’s area, and said NBN would start to be rolled out in the area early next year. “Telecommunications service providers are private companies and the availability of existing services is a commercial matter for these companies. The Australian government doesn’t have the authority to direct service providers to make new services available.”

Taskforces failing: police union By Sumeyya Ilanbey A police operation cracking down on car theft and traffic offences across the north-west region this week has been described as “a knee-jerk reaction” that has come too late for an increasing crime rate. Police Association secretary Ron Iddles said Operation Prevalent, a one-week operation targeting stolen number plates, stolen vehicles, and unregistered, suspended or drink drivers, was a reflection of “the fundamental failure of taskforce policing”. “We welcome any policing initiative that’s
designed to reduce crime and improve the community’s perception for their own safety,” Mr Iddles said. “But the need to plan operations of this nature reflects the fundamental failure of taskforce policing to do little more than deal with the consequences of offending as opposed to focusing on preventing crime in the first instance.” “This is a knee-jerk reaction that has come almost too little and too late.” Mr Iddles said a more sustainable and efficient approach to reducing and preventing crime would be to increase police numbers at
stations. As part of Operation Prevalent, booze buses and automated number plate recognition equipment will be set up across Altona North, Footscray, Laverton, Werribee, Williamstown, Wyndham North, Keilor Downs, Melton, Sunshine and Caroline Springs. Inspector Wayne Newman said the operation was aimed at continuing a downward trend in traffic-related offences. “We know that the community in north-west metro divisions 2 and 3 are feeling fearful after a number of incidents of young people breaking into homes to get access to car keys,” he said. “We want the community to know that we
don’t accept this offending in our community and our response has been swift and thorough.” Inspector Newman said taskforces had been set up to investigate the spate of aggravated burglaries and carjackings, and police patrols in high-risk locations across the north-west had resulted “in a number of significant arrests”. “We are working closely… on how we can prevent youth from offending, and we’re engaging with victims.” The crackdown comes days after western suburbs residents announced they would restart their own nightly patrols in Caroline Springs.
Faster service eases pain of waiting Patients at Werribee Mercy Hospital are facing shorter emergency department waiting times thanks to a new system that fast-tracks patients with minor issues. Since January, emergency department patients presenting with minor problems have been treated by a dedicated team consisting of a doctor and nurse. The pair treat emergency department patients in triage categories four and five, which include mild bleeding, foreign bodies in the eye, head injuries, possible bone fractures or symptoms such as rashes or minor aches and pains. Mercy Health chief executive of health services Linda Mellors said that since the introduction of the new system, the number of patients who had chosen to leave the emergency department without being seen by a member of the ED clinical team had dropped by 30 per cent. “The new ED process is widely accepted as being an effective model of care in emergency departments,” Dr Mellors said. “The average length of stay in the ED has also decreased and cubicles have been freed up for higheracuity patients.” The latest Victorian Health Services report shows the hospital bettered state government treatment targets for triage category one, two and three patients in the June 2016 quarter. It’s the first quarter in the past 12 months that the hospital has met all three targets.
Family time this father’s favourite gift Regardless of whether it’s socks or jocks this Sunday, Evren Velisha is looking forward to a day off on Sunday to spend with his children. The Werribee South market gardener will take a day off work to celebrate Father’s Day with his daughter Ivy, 2, son Ezra, four months, his partner Phoebe and other fatherly figures in the Velisha family at a special lunch. “It’s not about the presents,” he said. “I’m looking forward to waking up and spending the day with the kids.” It will be his third Father’s Day as a parent, and Evren says he’s enjoyed every moment of fatherhood. As soon as I walk into the house and see them, it’s all good,” he said. “Watching them grow up and seeing all the funny things they do is the best part of being a father.” Mr Velisha will join thousands of other dads in Wyndham in celebrating Father’s Day on September 4.

Not chalking it up to experience By Charlene Macaulay A Werribee CBD employee is going to war with Wyndham council over its “antiquated� system of marking car tyres with chalk. Antony Allan, who works on Watton Street, is contesting two parking fines issued by the council. Mr Allan claims that in both instances, he had moved his car in accordance with time limits but was nevertheless fined because the chalk mark used by a parking inspector had not rubbed off his tyre. Mr Allan suggested to Star Weekly that pictures taken on his phone indicated that
some of the chalk markings lasted a couple of days. He says he will not pay either fine unless the council can produce CCTV evidence that he had indeed overstayed the parking time limit. “When you actually move your car and the antiquated system of the chalk mark still remains on your car tyre, and you still end up getting a fine after you’ve moved your vehicle ‌ it’s ridiculous. I’m severely frustrated and annoyed about the whole situation.â€? Mr Allan said he had also tried, unsuccessfully, to get a parking permit, but the council had put a hold on the issuing of new permits since February 2015.
His comments come a week after a Star Weekly report revealed Wyndham council netted more than $1.4 million in parking fines in the 2015-16 financial year, handing out 13,334 fines over the 12-month period. According to Wyndham council city operations director Stephen Thorpe, the bulk of parking offences in 2015-16 were detected in Werribee’s CBD, in streets surrounding the city’s train stations, school zones, areas surrounding Werribee Mercy Hospital and in the Point Cook Town Centre. Mr Thorpe confirmed the council was reviewing Mr Allan’s parking fines. He defended the use of chalk marking.

Clear to launch: lift off It’s a dream shared by all budding fashion designers: to see their work on the runway. That dream became a reality for Werribee’s Erin Hearnden at the weekend when three of her designs were selected for an initiative of Melbourne Spring Fashion Week, the ‘emerging collective runway’. Ms Hearnden was among a handful of graduate student designers from some of Melbourne’s top fashion institutions to present their final collections on the runway in front of industry leaders. “I was quite surprised [to be chosen] because I didn’t want to get my hopes up too high. “My inspiration came from this idea of how we connect with our bodies and the relationship we have with our bodies and these ideas that society has in terms of gender stereotypes and what is classified as normal and acceptable in
society. I wanted to do a real play on gender, so I went for real, oversized shapes that had femininity to them, but then I used quite masculine fabrics.� The 21-year-old will complete her advanced diploma in applied fashion design and technology at the Kangan Institute later this year and plans to take on some internships after she graduates. She’s also keen to start her own fashion label. Her love of fashion was sparked when she decided to make a dress for herself in a high school textiles class. “I fell in love with the idea of being able to create my own style and express myself through fashion.� Ms Hearnden will head to Indonesia next month on a two-week scholarship to study traditional textiles.

Long way home for Boss By Charlene Macaulay A Wyndham Vale family was left fuming after their lost dog turned up at a Werribee vet … and they couldn’t claim him until he had been transferred to the Lost Dogs Home. Kathleen Bramich said her six-year-old French mastiff, named Boss, escaped his Wyndham Vale home on July 29, prompting a desperate search across the city. Ms Bramich said she found out later that day through social media that Boss had been picked up by a local resident and taken to the U-Vet Werribee Animal Hospital.

However, Ms Bramich said she was told by vet staff that she couldn’t claim Boss until he had been taken to the Lost Dogs Home. She picked up Boss at the ‘home’ the following day, paying a $130 release fee. Ms Bramich called the ordeal a cash grab. “Microchipping is to help identify and reunite dogs with owners,” she said. “I am outraged by the whole saga and only found my dog because of Facebook, not the $80 microchipping fee I paid.” A spokeswoman for U-Vet Werribee Animal Hospital and Wyndham council’s city operations director, Stephen Thorpe, both told Star Weekly that state government legislation required all lost animals handed into a vet clinic to be passed onto an authorised council officer or a person or body that has an official agreement with council. Mr Thorpe said that outside business hours,

as was the case for Boss the dog, the Lost Dogs Home collected animals on behalf of council and reunited them with their owners. “Vets don’t have a database of pet registrations, meaning it’s often difficult for them to identify who the owner is,” he said. “Some people have also used images shared on

Grief as phone tower gets nod Point Cook residents have lost their fight against the installation of a 35-metre mobile phone tower. At last week’s council meeting, Wyndham council gave the green light for Vodafone to remove an existing 30-metre-tall light pole at Featherbrook Reserve on Windorah Drive and replace it with a taller communications tower to improve mobile reception in the area. The council will lease the site to Vodafone for 20 years for $18,000 a year, plus GST, with a four per cent annual loading. An equipment shelter will be built next to the phone tower, which will also carry lighting. The lease comes despite a petition bearing 265 signatures objecting to the phone tower’s installation. Among their concerns, residents claim the proposed tower will impact on the streetscape and neighbourhood character. They have also expressed concerns about potential health risks that they say come with having a tower so close to homes and a childcare centre. Cr Bob Fairclough said there was little evidence to suggest a long-term health risk. Fellow councillor Gautam Gupta warned residents to be careful what they wished for. “I live in an area where internet is very difficult to get and reception is very poor,” he said. Cr Intaj Khan received applause from the gallery after stating the tower should be located elsewhere. Charlene Macaulay

e are an ageist society, judging everything by its age. An old car is of little worth, but a vintage car is priceless. Wine gets better with age but people certainly do not, especially if they drive a car. Mind you, young drivers don’t rate very well either, which is one of the few areas where the two demographics align. Clothes are an interesting one as old is bad until it’s new again, then it’s fabulous … but then it’s bad again. Music follows a similar path and even the tools of the trade are affected. Vinyl is now very in, but not long ago it was seen as antiquated and cumbersome; now it’s pure. Old songs come and go depending on fads, but, funnily, the biggest money-making musical tours in the world belong to oldies such as The Rolling Stones, Springsteen, The Eagles and Elton John. We’re obsessed with not looking old when we are old, and looking older when we are young. The difference in attitudes and reactions to being asked for ID is hysterical. An 18-year-old gets offended, but a 30-year-old does

cartwheels and giggles. One of my favourites is this conversation: “How old are you?” (Insert age here) (In a surprised tone) “You look good.” So do you look good regardless of your age or appropriate to your age? Do we need a website to compare ourselves with others our age to see if we look good?
O
ur sports people are certainly judged by their age. Our tennis players behave badly because they are young and don’t know any better. Does anyone really believe that? We get rid of footballers because they are too old, despite the fact they are better than some of the younger players at their club. Age to me is the same argument as gender. It’s irrelevant and should not influence the decision-making process, which is something easier said than done, but if the best person for a task is eight or 80 then that person should get the nod. We’re hellbent on stamping out all prejudices, including age. ■

Dairy giant moves out of town By Adem Saban Dairy Innovation Australia has sold its Werribee landholdings to a registered training organisation for $4.375 million. Western Institute of Technology (WIT) chairman and Wyndham councillor Intaj Khan said his company has purchased the 180 Princes Highway property to further develop educational opportunities in the area. Cr Khan said the purchase was a great opportunity for his company to set up close to
the proposed Australian Education City in the East Werribee employment precinct. Plans for the precinct include a mini-city with apartment blocks up to 50 storeys high, as well as higher education centres and a research and development hub. “Western Institute of Technology intends to utilise this space for educational purposes in the very near future, bringing great jobs and opportunities for Wyndham residents and Melbourne’s western suburbs,” Mr Khan said. The 6001 square metre site includes a
modern office building and laboratory facilities across its 2088 square metres, with 90 metres of highway frontage and 41 onsite car parks. Selling agent Julian Heatherich, of Savills, said the property had attracted keen interest from buyers wanting to take advantage of the strong forecast growth for Werribee. “Werribee, with a forecast population growth of 42 per cent by 2036, is located in one of Australia’s fastest growing non-CBD regions, a region which has been identified as a major commercial focal point for the future
development and growth in Melbourne’s west,” Mr Heatherich said. “The property is well placed to take advantage of that growth.” James Lockwood, of Savills, said the property was subject to a partial lease (31 per cent) at a current net rental of $165,880 per annum. DIA announced in June that it was winding down its technical consulting operations and selling its headquarters and labs. The news of its departure comes just four years after the research centre moved into new “purpose built and state-of-the-art facilities”.
A new vision of safety They call it the Road Guardian and it’s in Hobsons Bay, Maribyrnong and Wyndham for the next week. Mercedes-Benz has loaned its GLE63 S Coupe to Victoria Police for 12 months to raise awareness about vehicle safety. Sergeant Aaron Prentice-Evans, of the Westgate highway patrol, said the car had just about every safety feature a vehicle could have. “Last year, road policing command approached Monash University to identify some of the safest vehicles available in Australia so we could promote the future of vehicle safety,” he said. “As a result, we formed a partnership with Mercedes-Benz. “The message we’re trying to push to both the public and car manufacturers in general is that there’s no reason why some of your cheaper cars couldn’t have most, if not all, of the safety features on that vehicle. If every car on the road had the safety features that that vehicle’s got we could potentially reduce the road toll by a third
overnight.” Safety features include warnings if a car is drifting in a lane or about to leave a lane, automatically maintaining a safe distance from the car in front when on cruise control, and warnings for cars in a blind spot. “If you go to change lanes and you ignore the warning it will assist you by providing a physical warning with the steering wheel and an audible warning, and will actually nudge you back into your lane,” Sergeant Prentice-Evans said. “It has driver assistance. If it senses that potentially you have been driving for a while and may be nodding off, it will maintain driver awareness so that you’re staying awake and in control. We’re looking at trying to get some of the safety features of this vehicle as standard in all cars.” He said road policing command was committed to the four “safe systems” principles: safer roads, safer speeds, safer drivers and safer vehicles.

Shocks aplenty for karate class By Adem Saban Tyrone Johnson has been teaching karate for 20 years. In the middle of an evening session in May, the Werribee resident’s class took an unexpected turn when he went into cardiac arrest. It was his quick-thinking students who brought him back to life with a defibrillator. “I don’t remember much,” Mr Johnson said. “It was a normal day. I’d been to work, come into teach the class at 5.30 and halfway through I had a hot flush. I woke up 20 minutes later.” Parents of the karate students, a fellow karate instructor and a member of the Iramoo Community Centre’s staff jumped to his aid and shocked him back to life with a recently installed automatic external defibrillator. By the time paramedics arrived, Mr Johnson was up and talking. He was reunited with his saviours on Friday when they were recognised by Ambulance Victoria for their bravery. “I’m so thankful,” Mr Johnson said. “Without their quick thinking, I probably wouldn’t be alive today.” Ambulance Victoria Point Cook team manager Brett Parker said that on the day paramedics from Werribee, Hoppers Crossing and Point Cook responded to the call, and they were surprised when they found Mr Johnson talking to the bystanders. Mr Parker described their response as an “amazing team effort”. “They used the public access defibrillator and the shock restarted his heart.” Paramedic Hayley Cobble, who responded to the call-out, said: “It’s not often we arrive to a cardiac arrest and the patient is sitting up and talking to us.” Mr Johnson spent nine days in hospital and is now back teaching his classes.

Overdose not about illegality
PETER MAYNARD AND BRUCE MACKAY
Two million mark met By Adem Saban It’s a milestone week at Wyndham’s Aquapulse and Eagle Stadium as the centre celebrates two million customers through the doors in a little more than a year. Western Leisure Services chief executive Bruce Mackay said visitor numbers showed the strength of programs that build healthier lives. “In this age of obesity and widespread health issues relating to sedentary lifestyles, we are proud to join with council in helping to fight obesity,” he said. Council’s sport and open spaces portfolio
holder, Peter Maynard, said it is great that residents embrace the facilities the council is providing. “What we have in Wyndham is state-of-the-art. Why would anybody need to go anywhere else?” he said. “The fact that two million people have visited Aqua Pulse and Eagle Stadium in a little over 12 months is testament to just how excellent these two facilities are.” In celebration of the milestone, Western Leisure Service is offering a free 12-month all-access membership to one lucky visitor this month.
The second stage of Werribee’s Eagle Stadium opened to the public in June. It includes 12 indoor multi-purpose courts, a 1500-seat show court with retractable seating, a state-of-the-art gym and four new netball courts. Aquapulse, which opened at Hoppers Crossing in June last year, also features a gym, a 25-metre learn-to swim pool, a 50-metre pool, spa and warm water exercise pools, steam and sauna room, two waterslides, an aquatic playground and a crèche. Western Leisure Services also operate the Werribee Outdoor Pool.
Thursday marked a year since Aaron Short’s death by overdose. His mother, Cherie, commemorated his life at an International Overdose Awareness Day forum. “My son was studying to be an AOD (alcohol and other drug) worker, so we are continuing his line of work, honouring his legacy,” Ms Short said. The forum, organised in conjunction with Odyssey House, included speakers from Harm Reduction Victoria, beyondblue and Werribee Mercy Hospital. QC Robert Richter, social worker Les Twentyman and former Collingwood Football Club player and Sober House Living’s Gavin Crosisca, were among keynote speakers. Ms Short said the forum aimed to educate people and promote awareness about mental health and wellbeing, as well as the use of drugs and alcohol, and the possibilities of overdose. “The overall message is that overdose does not discriminate,” she said. “We also hope to convey a warning message that not only alcohol or illicit drugs are dangerous. The number of fatalities rising from prescription drugs is rapidly increasing. “Medicines are not always our friends.” The forum was the first of its kind in Wyndham, and Ms Short plans to continue it next year.

A Werribee research team has been given a $5.25 million grant to reduce the risk of race horse fatalities. The state government announced last week that it will continue to fund the Equine Limb Injury Prevention Research Program for the next three years, with funding also coming from Racing Victoria and the University of Melbourne.

It’s a sad fact that bone fractures in race horses are often fatal - Martin Pakula
’’
The university’s equine centre in Werribee has been running the program, which aims to detect and prevent bone injuries in racehorses, since 2014. Bone injuries are the most common cause of horse fatalities but are also a common factor in lameness and premature retirement. The new funding will be used to discover how the bones of racehorses respond to exercise, why some bones fail under repeated stress, and how bones may be helped to adapt to stressors and how accumulated damage can be repaired. A state-of-the-art MRI machine will also be purchased so that researchers can examine bones and cartilage without putting horses under anaesthetic. Racing Minister Martin Pakula said the funding would be aimed at making racing as safe as possible for both horses and their riders. “It’s a sad but true fact that bone fractures in race horses are often fatal and it’s currently very difficult to identify which animals are most vulnerable before one of those injuries

occur,” Mr Pakula said. “This project is about improving the odds of identifying those horses by creating a program that will lead to the early detection and prevention of bone injury.” John Fazakerley, of the University of Melbourne, said the new funding would
allow researchers to identify risk factors and determine safe levels of training while maintaining the fitness of the horses. “The result for the industry will be guidelines and systems which help identify a horse at risk of injury and reduce that risk.”

Boatshed battle drags on By Jane Lee / The Age The case against a Yarraville man embroiled in a three-year legal battle with Wyndham council over works he did at a public reserve is “an abuse of process”, his lawyer told a court this week. The council alleges Frank Grima, 60, installed a gate and laid concrete without a permit at Baileys Beach Reserve, near Werribee South, where he has leased a boat shed for the past few years. The council charged Mr Grima with a number of planning breaches in 2013 over the works. It is understood it initially issued Mr Grima an infringement notice, but later withdrew this, deciding instead to prosecute him in court. On Monday, Mr Grima pleaded guilty in Melbourne Magistrates Court to two charges of developing land by erecting the gate and laying a concrete slab, but is contesting two further charges related to other building works, including constructing a boat ramp. Barrister Julian Burnside, QC, a prominent human rights advocate, told the court on Monday that he wanted to apply for the case to be halted, saying the sheer volume of evidence involved – filling eight lever-arch binders – was “absurd”. “The case should be stayed because it is an abuse of process … it is unjustifiably and unreasonably oppressive,” Mr Burnside said. Mr Grima had undertaken works to make the road safer to drive on, he said, and had installed a gate at a point where drivers dumped their rubbish. The council’s barrister, Justin Foster, said Mr Grima was “in essence treating the [alleged developments] almost like his own kingdom”. He said Mr Grima kept keys to the gate and

did not give them to the council or emergency services. Mr Burnside said: “We say he hasn’t done most of the things alleged, and that the things he has done are trivial.
No Need To Look Around We Provide All-on-4™
“But we’re facing a 10-day trial.” Fairfax Media has reported Mr Grima sold his family home to help fund the legal battle. On Monday, Wyndham councillor Intaj Khan conceded the council had failed to
maintain Baileys Beach Reserve. “The foreshore area is in urgent need of an upgrade, and that’s obviously the responsibility of council,” he said. The case continues.

Werribee huddles up
THIS SATURDAY IS MARKET DAY AT WILLIAMS LANDING
Werribee is getting its own huddle. The Werribee Football Club is joining North Melbourne Football Club, the Scanlon Foundation and the Refuge of Hope to establish its own huddle, which will be aimed at engaging and inspiring young people, primarily those aged between 12 and 25. Based on the huddle that has been running out of Arden Street since 2010, the Werribee Huddle will focus on empowering and inspiring young people and strengthening social inclusion in the community through four key areas – sport and recreation, education and careers, digital skills, and civic participation. North Melbourne community engagement general manager Cameron McLeod said the Werribee Huddle, which will be based at the
Youth Resource Centre in Hoppers Crossing until the Chirnside Park redevelopment is complete, would start offering programs from the start of term 4. He anticipates up to 5000 people will use the huddle in its first year. “Our community in North Melbourne and surrounding areas is very similar to that here in Wyndham,” he said. Werribee Football Club chief executive Mark Penaluna said the club was committed to playing a leadership role in the community. “We’ve had this philosophy, for a long time, to try and extend ourselves and to assist people – especially those from newly arrived communities,” he said.

Opportunity knocks again Students Taliah Bowen and Melisa Mason with teacher Louise Devenyns (middle) at the new Gordon campus in Werribee. (Damjan Janevski)
A top job for Wyndham By Adem Saban A new vocational education campus on Werribee’s main street is aimed at providing training for jobs in the Wyndham region. Gordon Institute opened its doors on Watton Street on August 22, offering a range of courses in business administration, disability and age caring, and early childhood education. The institute’s Wyndham development manager, Brendan Quirk, said the campus was funded through the state government’s Back to Work funding scheme and created in a bid to train people of all ages for employment in the growth area.
“The business administration courses will focus on the healthcare sector and ‘individual support’ courses will provide training for those looking to work in aged or disability care,� he said. The early childhood education courses will train people to work in day care and childcare. Vocational education and training (VET) courses will also be offered to year 11 and 12 students. The new Watton Street campus, on two floors, features practical training areas for those studying childcare or aged-care nursing. Mr Quirk said Wyndham was identified as an area in need of the campus for reasons that
included its growing population, new hospital and re-development of the existing Mercy hospital. He said the average age of students at the institute was 30, demonstrating a wide range of ages were enrolled. A focus of the courses was industry engagement that allowed students to complete placements. Gordon Institute is no stranger to Wyndham. It has a campus in conjunction with Deakin University and specialising in construction training at Bridge Street in Werribee. It also teaches horticulture at Werribee Park and uses the Melbourne University campus in Werribee for veterinary studies.
Two years in the offing, Werribee’s Rotary-managed op shop has finally opened its doors. Named Fit4Use, the store sells clothing, plants, homewares, furniture, manchester and more, and will be staffed by Rotarians from Werribee, Wyndham, Hoppers Crossing, Laverton Point Cook, and host club Flemington. Store manager Lorry Rowe, of Werribee Rotary, said the store had been in the pipeline for years. “All the funds raised will go directly back into the community for projects,� she said. Hoppers Crossing Rotary’s Colin Styles said the role of the store was the same as other op shops. “We work with the local organisations like the Salvation Army and Werribee Support and Housing,� he said. The store is at 135 Railway Avenue and open from 10am until 4pm, Monday to Friday, and 9am until 2pm on Saturdays. Adem Saban

Wellbeing fed on mobile service By Adem Saban When Carol Stoate retired three years ago she didn’t want to sit around at home all day. The Tarneit resident and former disability services worker looked for volunteer work around the community, which is where she came across Meals on Wheels. She and friend Sandra Thorpe now spend two days a week delivering meals to elderly Wyndham residents. “It’s such a great scheme,” Ms Stoate said. “When I was working, I worked with people with intellectual disabilities – it’s what I’m comfortable with. “I just love the people. They’re mostly elderly, all retired. I enjoy meeting people and talking to them. Sometimes delivering meals is the only contact these people have
for the day – a lot of them are living on their own and wouldn’t normally see anyone else. “It’s very rewarding,” she said. Ms Stoate delivers meals to people in two Wyndham retirement villages, and a few houses in between, as part of the program managed by Wyndham council. Wednesday, August 31, is National Meals on Wheels Day. This recognises the work of the 87,700 volunteers involved in 740 meals-on-wheels delivery services around Australia.

High school students from across the west rubbed shoulders with some of the country’s big decision-makers at a forum canvassing national issues. About 70 students from MacKillop Catholic Regional College, Werribee Secondary College, Emmanuel College, the Islamic College of Melbourne and Sunbury Downs Secondary College descended on MacKillop’s Werribee campus for the day-long constitutional convention. Victorian senator Janet Rice, Lalor MP Joanne Ryan, Werribee MP Tim Pallas and Sherry Balcome of the Aboriginal Catholic Ministry gave their views on injustice towards
the Indigenous people of Australia, both historically and currently. Year 10 MacKillop student Natasha Paranema said the keynote speakers took part in a panel discussion on the issue, before the students broke off into smaller groups to discuss their thoughts on the topic. “It was great to hear the views of other people rather than the people you surround yourself with every day,” she said. “It was great to get new ideas and new insights on topics that really affect us as Australian citizens.” Charlene Macaulay

Trash turned to treasure By Adem Saban Suzette Twaddle loves the environment, fashion and all things beautiful. They’re the three themes that come through in her inaugural exhibition to be held at Saltwater Community Centre next month. Her art deco-inspired artwork uses beading and knotting (macramé) to turn trash into treasure. Twaddle’s career as an artist began just four years ago. “I’ve always worked in fashion,” she says. “I had my own boutique and fashion label. When I decided to semi-retire, I thought, what am I going to do with myself?” The Hoppers Crossing artist decided to make a career of mannequin art – painting and decorating mannequins she had kept after retiring. “It was cheaper than buying a canvas, using mannequins as a medium of art. “I sort of started doing it without realising it was something that was seen to be worthy of an exhibition. “I also restore old furniture, do garden art, sometimes pick up odd bits and pieces and use them for my art. “I’m not trained as an artist; I haven’t done any studies and don’t have any degrees. I just do whatever I feel, I do my own thing.” Twaddle’s inaugural exhibition will be held at Saltwater Community Centre from September 15 until November 15. It will feature mirrored furniture, jewelled bodices, beaded flamingos, and more. An opening event will be held on September 15 from 6.30pm.

Well-rounded lessons learned Some of Werribee’s newly arrived migrants have formed new friendships at a bowls tournament. Hosted by Werribee Bowls Club and the Western Bulldogs Football Club’s Community Foundation, more than 100 students enrolled in the Adult Migrant Education Program went head-to-head in a roll-down. The players’s families had come from Burma, Sudan, Ethiopia, Iraq and Syria. Rhonda Edwards, of the bowls club, said the event was a great way for students to learn English while having some fun. “Seeing them laughing and having fun was great. It also creates a direct link to clubs if they want to continue, all while meeting new people.” Western Bulldogs settlement services co-ordinator Kim Kelsey said the event was a two-way learning street for the migrants and those running the event. “It’s us teaching them our culture, while at the same time we learn about theirs.” Adem Saban

MY WYNDHAM Jerry Hart loves to run. The 77-year-old has completed in 84 marathons over his running career. He tells Charlene Macaulay how he got into the sport, and about his love of Werribee. What’s your connection to Wyndham? I was born in Werribee. I’ve lived here all my life and seen a lot of changes. It’s gone from a country town to what it is now, and it’s just getting bigger and bigger. I wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. What was Werribee like when you were a child? I knew every street and I would have probably known everybody. Even if I didn’t know them personally, I knew of them. Tell me about your family. My darling wife Helen passed away about four years ago. We met on a blind date. A friend asked me to take her out for her 21st birthday. I didn’t want to do it … but I did and three weeks later I took her out again and we were never apart after that. I knew she was the one for me. We had five children, three girls and two boys, nine granddaughters, two greatgrandsons, and one great-granddaughter, and they’re all beautiful.
(Damjan Janevski)
How did you get into running? I’ve always played sport. I played football, I played tennis, I did some cycle racing then I stopped all sport and dedicated my life to work, work, work. I got a bit run down so I started to go for a run after work, and those runs kept getting longer and longer. They used to have the Victorian marathon
championships from the Werribee racecourse, and I wondered if I could do one of them. Twelve months later, I did. I’ve run in 84 marathons and finished them all. I’ve also done about 20 ultra-marathons. My biggest disappointment was not finishing the Sydney to Melbourne [run] in 1985. I got an injury early on and never got another chance to do it. What do you think about when you’re running? Getting to the finish line, that’s the main thing. Do you still run now? I want to get back to running, but I’ve got a little bit of arthritis in my spine and my physio tells me I shouldn’t run any more. He’s telling me not to do something that I love. I still go out on the bike every Tuesday, but running is still my sport. It does something for my head. Do you have any other hobbies? I’m a life member at the Werribee Centrals Football Club and I’ve been a volunteer there for 25 years. I’ve done just about every job you can name over there. Where do you like to go for a coffee or meal? Chatterbox, I’ve been going there for years. I meet a lot of friends there.

Werribee Shire Council is concerned at Sunshine City Council’s suggestions regarding relocation of Newmarket Saleyards in the Laverton North area. For 40 years a site has been set aside in the City of Sunshine, just across the boundary from the Shire of Werribee. However, a recent report on the matter by Sunshine City Council recommends that the proposed site be shifted into Werribee Shire.
A Werribee councillor has dismissed out of hand an article in last week’s Banner which claimed the councillor’s Laverton North companies were given a “second chance” to comply with health regulations. The article claimed that a second 90-day notice period was imposed by the council on two food packaging companies directed by Cr Stuart Southwick.
Werribee Park is to get a $5 million hotel and conference centre. The Minister for Conservation and Land Management, Ms Marie Tehan, will call for private sector investment when she launches the project, Vision for Werribee Park tomorrow. The development is expected to involve revamping the St Joseph’s wing, built by the Roman Catholic Church as a seminary between 1925 and 1928.
Werribee man Joseph ‘Jack’ Thomas will tonight spend his third night under a curfew imposed by an interim control order, less than a fortnight after winning his appeal against terrorism-related convictions. The order, applied by the Australian Federal Police and granted by the Federal Magistrates Court in Canberra on Sunday, is the first granted under Australia’s new anti-terrorism legislation.

What’s in a name is history … By Alexandra Laskie Names are tricky … and prominent Australian linguist and current Chair of Linguistics at Monash University Professor Kate Burridge is one of the first to admit this. Despite Australia’s relatively short history, the way we pronounce the names of some Victorian suburbs has changed since they were first nominated and assigned a post office in the mid to late 19th century. “Pronunciation [of words will change] spectacularly over time,” Professor Burridge says. “Often sounds will drop off at the end. “Typically words get shorter, and names can do that dramatically. What happens is frequently [used] words shorten strikingly.” And, she says, there’s no definitive answer when it comes to the “correct” way to pronounce any suburb names due to the fluid nature of the English language. “I suppose it’s not a clear-cut thing. Things change and will always change.” She says snobbery can be attached to certain pronunciations – such as Reser-VOIR, pronounced with a French inflection, as opposed to Reser-VOR – for the area known for its three water reservoirs; while the way a person says Lalor can reveal their age or how new they are to the area. Star Weekly has delved into the history of suburb names in Melbourne’s north and west that people often bumble over, fight about, say incorrectly or, after taking a look at the spelling, are too downright scared to say aloud at all.
Cairnlea Park Primary School teacher Margaret Connelly.
the suburb should be pronounced CAIRN-lea and later continued his fight for the working not CARN-lea. “It’s not phonetically correct to class in the Victorian Upper House. The Peter Lalor Co-operative Housing say CARN-lea,” Ms Connelly points out. Society was named in his honour. The society LALOR – The northern suburb of Lalor was was formed in 1947 and was made up of named after Eureka stockade leader and ex-servicemen who built 900 homes on land politician Peter Lalor, whose surname was north of Thomastown – today’s Lalor – to pronounced LAW-ler. Mr Lalor migrated to address Victoria’s severe housing shortage and Australia in 1852 and headed straight to the rampant building costs following the war. Annie MacKenzie’s husband George was goldfields. He rallied thousands to fight for the rights and liberties of diggers and spearheaded part of the co-operative and built their brick the infamous Eureka Stockade uprising in 1854, home in Middleton Street where she continues
say the tropical north Queensland city ‘Cairns’. She says the name has its origins in the Scottish word for a pile of rocks – a cairn – in reference to the cairn on the corner of Station Street and Ballarat Road, which was built to commemorate the centenary of the Hamilton Hume and William Hovell expedition to find new grazing land for the young colony. This passed through Deer Park in 1824. According to Sunshine and District Historical Society, ‘lea’ refers to a paddock. Ms Connelly, the school’s literacy coach, says
CAIRNLEA – Long-serving Cairnlea Park Primary School teacher Margaret Connelly says Cairnlea is a Scottish Gaelic word and should be pronounced as native speakers would say it, which is the same way Australians

to live today. The 92-year-old gets frustrated when people say LAY-lor because she feels it is disrespectful to the hundreds of soldiers who fought for this country during the war and built much of the suburb. “It was named after Peter Lalor, the man who gave us an eight-hour working day.” TRUGANINA – Honorary secretary of the Truganina Progress Association Wendy Bitans says Truganina is named after an indigenous woman called Truganini. But, she says, the name isn’t pronounced phonetically, it’s Truga-NINE-a, not Truga-Neena as most people tend to say. “When people say it like that it makes it an Italian name but it is actually an Aboriginal name,” she says. ROXBURGH PARK – The Heritage Council of Victoria notes Roxburgh Park was “almost certainly” named by Thomas Brunton, a prominent flour miller and public and community office holder, president of the Royal Agricultural Society and a Member of the Legislative Council [upper house parliamentarian]. A Victorian heritage database report says Mr Brunton named his 131 hectares at 30 Whiltshire Drive after his birthplace on the Tweed River in Scotland. Brunton bred cattle, horses and Shropshire sheep at Roxburgh Park. Hume councillor Jack Ogilvie says many people pronounce the suburb’s name Rox-BERG Park, rather than the way the Scottish town of Roxburgh is said. “I tell people, no, it’s called Rox-BROUGH Park, without the emphasis on the ‘g’.” RIDDELLS CREEK – The first European settlers in Riddells Creek were cousins John
Annie (Peg) MacKenzie outside her Lalor home. (Joe Mastroianni)
Carre Riddell and Thomas Ferrier Hamilton in 1841, who emigrated from Scotland on the Abberton. They purchased a stock and depasturing licence of the Mount Macedon run to graze cattle. According to the Australian National University’s National Centre of Biography, Mr Riddell’s surname, after whom the suburb was named, is pronounced “Riddle”, not “Riddell” as it appears. MYRNIONG – Bacchus Marsh District Historical Society member Jenny Couper says Myrniong should be pronounced Mer-NE-ong. “The name is thought to be an Indigenous word meaning edible root,” she says. COIMADAI – Ms Couper says the historical society believes the town’s name is derived from an indigenous word describing an old, male kangaroo at rest. She says it should be pronounced Com-I-da. Coimadai Primary School opened in 1862 and is still open today.

FOOD REVIEW
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir takes a punt on an old Aussie favourite … Pokie venues are not a natural habitat for Consider The Sauce. In fact, if memory serves, this is only the second such story in CTS history. Sunshine RSL is very much part of the Sunshine central area with which we are so familiar. But it’s kinda tucked away in a back street, so is easy to overlook. Yet, despite its nearness to the hustle and bustle of Hampshire and Devonshire roads, this is like another world. And never, or almost never, the twain shall meet. But I feel immediately comfortable and at home – once I pass the obligatory sign-in procedures. I tune out the electronic gambling, and the garish lighting, and take in the scene – I’m pretty sure I’m the only non-regular here. I’m pleased to see that, aside from a few regulation-style pasta dishes on the specials list, the food is straight-up pub tucker. Why bother with a try at curries or wok food when there is so much of them to be had nearby for so little money? The prices seem fair, kept down perhaps by the fact there’s no table service – meals are ordered, delivered and picked up from the kitchen servery, which I actually like as it lends a cheerful participatory air to proceedings. Like me, it seems, about half the customers are here for the Sunday roast special. And for $10, I have only the most modest expectations.
ROAST PORK AND VEGETABLES
So I am knocked and otherwise delighted by the meal I proceed to consume. The serve is big … always a good sign, and the pork – there’s beef also available – is tender. There’s plenty of good gravy too. The broccoli aside, all the vegetables are roasted – this is most excellent, as we know of another place that does $10 Sunday roasts and all the veg except for spuds are steamed in order to keeps costs down. I wish, just a little, I had asked for pumpkin to be excluded – there’s a stack of it – and had more of other vegie choices on offer. But overall, I could hardly be happier.

Tokyo, jam-packed city of delights By Alexandra Laskie I witnessed something very unusual on a sunny winter’s day in Tokyo earlier this year – in a city of 13 million people, order and courtesy prevailed. In the jumping ward of Shibuya, right near the famed intersection in front of Shibuya train station – named The Scramble and one of the world’s busiest – pedestrians crossed huge multi-lane highways on overpasses. It happened to be peak hour, when thousands of Edokko (Tokyo residents) were headed for work. A single-form queue of more than 100 people had formed to walk up the stairs and onto one of the pedestrian-only overpasses. People often don’t even wait for passengers to exit a train carriage before pushing on themselves in Melbourne, yet here were these patient “salerymen” – as white collar workers are called in Japan – and women waiting in a line that snaked its way up the street just to walk up a flight of stairs. The scene says a lot about Japan and the Japanese, who are typically polite, punctual, kind, hard-working, respectful, shy and clean. And Tokyo is the perfect place to introduce yourself to Japan’s uniqueness. Taxi drivers are usually impeccably dressed in suits, a black cap and white gloves. Their doors open automatically (allowing passengers to avoid touching germ-covered handles) and the drivers rarely speak English. Welcome to a first world city unlike so many others, where you can almost entirely escape the English language. Yet those who do speak English often approach tourists offering assistance. On a gruelling search for a café a friend had recommended, we decided to take a pit stop
28 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 31, 2016
Shibuya Crossing, one of the busiest crosswalks in the world. (iStock)
and buy a drink from one of the many ‘family marts’, a Japanese convenience store franchise dotted across the city that sells everything from ice-creams to stationary to bento boxes and alcohol. When paying, we asked the cashier whether he knew where the café was. At that, he walked around the counter, out the door and beckoned
us to follow him up the street. Three minutes later he stopped to provide further directions before excusing himself and returning to the store. Such is the friendliness and charity of the Japanese! Even for those with an aversion to travelling to cold places, Tokyo loses none of its appeal in the winter. Sunny days are still frequent and it
would not be unusual to strip down to a T-shirt when criss-crossing the city in search of cafes, restaurants and galleries. Something you learn about the Japanese when a visitor in their country is their penchant for the finer things in life. According to Monocle magazine, there are 298 Starbucks cafes in Tokyo. But for the
STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
discerning Melbourne visitor (and coffee drinker), there are just as many smaller, boutique-style cafes using only the best singleorigin beans, which are often roasted in Australia. For a taste, try Streamer, Fuglen and About Life Coffee Brewers. The same penchant for quality is shared by restaurant and bar owners. While the main alcoholic drinks enjoyed by the Japanese are beer, sake and shochu, wine lovers need not despair. Top quality (and mostly French) wines can be had at wine bars, such as at Ahiru Store in the hip neighbourhood of Tomigaya. Eating out in Tokyo is an experience in itself. Many restaurants serve only their speciality, which may be tempura (dishes that have been battered and deep fried), ramen (a noodle and broth dish) or soba (buckwheat noodles), and you can rarely go wrong. For breaded pork cutlets, though, Butagumi is a must. And for tempura, try Miyakawa Tempura Aoyama. The café around the corner, named Down the Stairs, does an unmissable bento lunch. For those who want to stay in the heart of the action, the Tokyu Stay hotels are reasonably priced and centrally located. Each room has a washing machine, with washing powder provided. The boutique hotel experience can be had at Claska Hotel, in Meguro ward, which is known for its on-trend furniture stores and lively neighbourhood. It’s a short walk to the train station, which is on the Yamanote line and will connect you to the city’s main train stations quickly and easily. While it might seem premature to book a trip to Tokyo during their winter (our summer) now, just remember, those two-for-one Jetstar flight deals can’t be too far away.

Show your support this Legacy Week.
Many thousands of Australian men and women have served in Australia’s defence forces – service for which Australia is thankful. But sometimes the families of those who have served need extra help – and that’s where Legacy comes in. Melbourne Legacy president Graeme Plumridge says Legacy supports defence force families through serious illnesses, injuries or deaths of loved ones. “We currently care for about 80,000 families including widows. widowers, children and disabled dependents all over Australia,” Mr Plumridge says. Involved with Melbourne Legacy since 2008, Mr Plumridge became president in March this year. Previously he was chairman of the inner-eastern branch and was treasurer and a director of Legacy Australia. “I served in the army as a national serviceman,” he says. “I was in Vietnam for 12 months and then left the military to train as an accountant. “Dad served in World War II … when he passed away, Legacy stepped in to care for mum. I am forever grateful for the support.” Connecting and supporting widows, dependents, families and children on a social and professional basis, Legacy provides individuals and families with basic needs; advocates for entitlements, rights and benefits; assists them through bereavement; and helps people move on. “For widows, Legacy is about connecting them to the community,” Mr Plumridge says. “We have 30 Legacy widows clubs in metropolitan Melbourne and each hold luncheons and have guest speakers and special guests. “Social interaction is very important – no one can relate better to another widow than a widow.
“Legacy understands that some families may just be treading water so we pay their bills, take the kids out or offer them a njury, special family outing,” Mr Plumridge says. To raise awareness and funds for the families of incapacitated and deceased veterans, the annual national appeal, Legacy Week, will run from August 28 to September 3. “Funds raised will provide essential services such as counselling, medical, advocacy and social support.” Legacy has more than 5900 volunteers nationwide, including students, defence force cadets and service personnel.
Helping clear life’s hurdles One of Legacy’s mission statements is that it will support families by delicately assisting a spouse and children by offering relief – physically and emotionally – so they can deal with the strain of any immediate crisis. “Our work can be about the little things that make a big difference,” president of Melbourne Legacy Graeme Plumridge says. “We help families with pension applications and other advocacy support. Practical assistance can also provide immense peace of mind. “Recently we assisted a partner of an Afghanistan war veteran who was suffering post-traumatic stress disorder. The veteran was unable to work and was undergoing treatment. The couple had a 10-month old baby girl and a three-year-old boy and were struggling to pay their household bills. Legacy stepped in to help with expenses to give them breathing space and a chance to focus on his health.” For children, Legacy assists by holding camps, giving them valuable time-out. “Each has a parent who has given their life or their health while serving for our nation in the defence force, and the kids quickly bond together through their shared experiences.”
Thomas Kaye, of Brunswick, agrees and says he’s very thankful for all Legacy has done for him and his family after the death of his father when he was 14. “Dad served in the British then the Australian Navy. After his death Legacy stepped in and I’m forever grateful,” says Thomas. Now 22 and studying for a bachelor degree in surveying at Melbourne University, he says their help has been amazing. “I’m living in Australia by myself so not only do they help out with university expenses but they’re my friends. That’s why I decided to become a volunteer.” Thomas says he recently went on his first “big camp” as a Leader. “Other Leaders, staff and 50 kids aged 10 to 17 went to Falls Creek. Being a Leader allows me to stay involved and offer a firm word if needed. “Everyone has an interesting history. It’s so amazing to see the kids bond so quickly; they’ve all been through similar experiences and understand one another. “Legacy is an amazing charity, and Legacy Week is a really good chance for the organisation to raise awareness and funds for all the amazing work they have done and continue to do,” Thomas says.

PRD Nationwide: 9742 7557 Price: $695,000 Private sale
This place takes quite a formal turn, showing an appreciation for quiet elegance and refinement rather than dash and splash. It reveals its essence immediately in the open, beige-carpeted lounge-dining room (off the entry hall), where soft-blue walls, white ornate cornices, stepped skirts and mid-blue drapes under matching pelmets partner with a pair of chandeliers and a period-style gas log fireplace. The same mood and palette is employed in the living hub, where the
window-rimmed, recessed meals area has pastel floral curtaining and floors are in blue-and-white diamond-checkered laminate, the latter also anchoring the hub’s remainder. The kitchen has a stone-topped island bench, plenty of storage and a stainless-steel dishwasher, under-bench oven and gas cooktop. Two of the three good-sized bedrooms share a gleaming bathroom with period references, while the large main has the
same soft-blue on a feature wall, floral drapes under matching pelmet and an en suite as sparka-larkling as the rest of the place. A study could serve as a fourth bedroom. The outdoor areas are immaculate and well executed, with brick paving under a large gabled pergola providing kick-back space galore. The big, manicured backyard has an expansive lawn with a feature specimen tree in the centre and dense plantings of trees and shrubs concealing

the fence. The integrated double garage has a back roller door allowing backyard access through the pergola area, with the block of about 920 square metres well able to accommodate the parking of a boat or van. The property is tucked away in Derrimut Heath estate, off Morris Road, putting it within easy reach of schools, medical centres, parks, transport, reserves and Wyndham Village shopping centre.

“YOUR FOOTBALL CLUB”
Tigers deliver at last By Lance Jenkinson Werribee Tigers coach John Lamont was apprehensive leading into Sunday’s historic final game of the season against Sandringham. It was a dead rubber game for the Tigers with VFL finals out of the equation, but it was also billed as one of the biggest days in the club’s history – the last game at the Watton Street ground in its current format before it is transformed into a state-of-the-art venue to serve coming generations. Throughout a tough season – one that began with the expectation of finals before petering out to an 11th-place finish as injuries and form slumps wreaked havoc – Lamont maintained the players had for the most part played with spirit and that morale remained high. Even Lamont was wincing when he checked the AFL results from Saturday, seeing Melbourne and Richmond, both sides with little but pride to play for, on the end of 100-plus point losses. Lamont wondered what the mindset of his players would be when he arrived at Avalon Airport Oval on Sunday morning, knowing they were four quarters away from the end of a long, tough campaign. To Lamont’s delight, his players were up for the challenge, claiming a 20-point win over finals-bound Sandringham. “The morale of the group has been terrific, even though we have had a lot of injuries and lost a lot of games of footy,” he said. “The blokes were really keen to finish the year strongly and sending off the pavilion was one little part of it but the big part of it was finishing the year off on a positive note.”
Werribee produced what it had yearned for most of the season – a consistent four-quarter performance. The Tigers answered numerous challenges from the Zebras, leading at every change and claiming a seventh win for the season. Key forward Josh Porter and midfielder Joe Maishman saved their best until last. “They probably had their best games of the year,” Lamont said. “They were real stand-outs for us, those two boys.” Porter was the focal point for Werribee’s attack. He kicked two goals and was the conduit between midfield and goal. Maishman’s explosiveness through the middle of the ground had the eyes of the forwards lighting up. Ryan Clarke consistently found the ball and played his way into the minds of the North Melbourne selectors for the AFL finals. Robin Nahas was dangerous around goal with three majors, while young key forward Ben McKay jagged two. It ended on a positive note, but the 2016 season will be remembered as one that was unfulfilled for Werribee. “The whole year has slipped by and we haven’t gotten to where we wanted to go,” Lamont said. Meanwhile, there is no rest for Lamont and the support staff, with planning already under way for next season. The Tigers will play all games on the road in 2017, with the club looking to secure nine “home” venues away from Watton Street. They are in talks to stage games at Hoppers Crossing, Torquay and perhaps even an AFL curtain-raiser at Etihad Stadium, plus Arden Street will be a logical venue given the Tigers’ ties to North Melbourne.

SPORT Falcons shattered again By Tara Murray It was a familiar feeling for City West Falcons when they suffered grand final heartache in the Victorian Netball League championship on Saturday night. Having lost the previous two deciders, the Falcons lost to Melbourne University Lightning by the cruellest of margins – a single goal. A total of just four goals had separated the two teams across the clubs’ three previous matches this season, and from early on it looked liked the grand final would be another close one. When the Falcons scored the first goal of the last quarter, their leading margin was five – that would be the biggest margin of the game. The Lightning didn’t go away, scoring the next five goals to level the scores. A key turnover to the Lightning allowed it to open up a two-goal lead with several minutes remaining. That proved to be the final difference. The Falcons were unable to break the Lightning’s centre pass, with the Lightning claiming a 53-52 win.
City West stays strong City West Falcons’ hold on the unofficial title as the Victorian Netball League’s strongest club is undiminished. Their championship side suffered a heartbreaking grand final loss but the Falcons’ division 1 side won back-to-back titles at the weekend. Their under-19 side was knocked out in the preliminary finals. The Falcons were one of two clubs, along with DC East Blaze, to have all three sides make the finals. Falcon head coach Marg Lind said the overall season had exceeded pre-season expectations. “A one, two and three finish across the grades is a good result,” she said. In the division 1 grand final, the Falcons fired late against Boroondara Express. Only one goal separated the teams at the three breaks. The Falcons made savvy line-up changes late in the game, producing their best quarter for a 56-49 win. Falcons’ co-captain Emily Post was named best on court. Lind said it had been a difficult season but she was pleased with how the club as a whole had responded to the challenges. She said the club had given a number of younger players opportunities. “To get two teams into the championship and division 1 grand finals was excellent,” she said. “We lost a few players to Ballarat after the selection process, which really affected all the teams. “It was really a test for us and has been a constant battle. Credit to the staff to get them to this point and credit to the girls who have worked really hard. “From that point of view, it’s been a good year, but it would be nice to get the championship.”
Melbourne Lightning’s Danielle Stewart and City West Falcons’ Molly Jovic go hard for the ball. (Shawn Smits)
Falcons coach Marg Lind said to go so close yet again was devastating. “We had our chances,” she said. “It was a classic grand final which could have gone either way with two evenly matched teams. We put
ourselves in a position to win it and were four goals up going into the last. Their [Lightning] physicality in the last quarter paid off. “There was a couple of calls which were very dubious, which really hurt us, but we needed to get back on track earlier than we did.” Lind said the Falcons had focused on having a better start against the Lightning, after trailing by as many as nine goals in the semi-final between the two sides. “It was an even start,” she said. “It’s something we focused on … we played a lot better this time even though the result isn’t different – one goal. “They had a couple of calls go their way which were costly for us and it gave them momentum and we didn’t respond quick enough. “We gave ourselves a chance and we played reasonably well most of the game. “We put them in a good position with a four-goal lead into the last. “We spoke about whether we could make any other changes, but it’s hard to say as you can’t predict a couple of calls and luck.” Lightning co-captain Danielle Stewart, a former Falcons mid-courter, was named best on court.
IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ With
no AFL this week the spotlight turns to local comps. It is grand final week in the WRFL’s divisions 2 and 3, with Yarraville Seddon to play Caroline Springs at Avalon Airport Oval on Sunday and Newport Power to clash with Parkside at Wootten Road Reserve on Saturday. It really is the old versus the new, with founding club Parkside playing Newport in its first senior year. Caroline Springs enters its first ever grand final in senior football, while Yarraville is one of the oldest clubs in the west. The stage is set for a wonderful weekend of local footy, especially when you add the division 1 preliminary final between Altona and Hoppers Crossing. Deer Park won its way through last week and looks unbeatable for its fourth flag in a row.
■ The
AFL finals really gives our city a big lift. Those at the Werribee Football Club lunch last Sunday got an early dose of finals fever when Mike Brady entertained with his football anthems Up There Cazaly and One Day in September September. Nothing expresses the public passion about footy in this town better than those two iconic songs, and Mike is belting them out as good as ever. The Bulldogs will head to Perth to tackle the in-form Eagles in a cut-throat elimination final. It will be a tough task for the red white and blue. It was great to see former Wyndhamvale junior Jack Fitzpatrick star for the Hawks last week. He has had an unbelievable run of bad luck during his footy career with illness and injuries. I hope his match-winning goal is the turning point.
■ VFL football also heads into the finals and while Werribee won’t be part of it, they did finish the season with a win over Sandringham. Williamstown and Footscray get the double chance. The Bulldogs have been in great form of recent weeks while Williamstown is the reigning premiers and deserves to be respected. The Bulldogs will play Casey Scorpions while the Seagulls face Collingwood. The AFL week off will have no impact on Willy but the Doggies might put a few in cotton wool, especially with the first final for the AFL boys being in Perth. Does Jake Stringer get another VFL game? Under the AFL eligibility rules Will Minson can’t line up in the VFL, nor can any other player from AFL round 23. What are the Bulldogs plans with bringing back some of their injured players? There is never a dull moment in September. Kevin Hillier

Tigers turn up trumps at the pointy end of the season It has been a bumpy ride for 18 weeks, but Werribee will be part of this season’s Hockey Victoria men’s Vic League 2 finals after all. The Tigers have not made things easy for themselves this season, losing games that were pencilled in as wins, but also causing a shock or two to reach the 30 points needed for finals. Goal difference was the Tigers saviour after Saturday’s dull 1-0 loss to Knox in the last round at President’s Park. It was a deflating performance after the Tigers had thrilled supporters in the second half of the season. Tigers’ co-captain Jayden Street told Star Weekly it was better to get the off-day out of the way before cut-throat finals begin. “It was not one of our best days,” he said. “We dropped down to fourth, but it doesn’t really affect us that much – third or fourth is the same anyway. After dropping the game this week, we’ve got work to do on the track
to make sure we get it right because now it’s cut-throat, we can’t afford to drop anymore games.” Werribee looked back on their round 11 encounter with lowly Greater Dandenong Warriors as the turning point of their season. From a neutral perspective, it was a game that will be remembered for some time, as both sides attacked en route to the 4-4 result. For the Tigers, it was a dreadful result against a Warriors’ side that finished the year with the wooden spoon. “It wasn’t convincing whatsoever,” Street said. “Everyone had a good hard look at themselves after that game. “From there, we seemed to build our season, and started to realise we were good enough to beat the top teams, so we shouldn’t be dropping points to the lower teams.” An honesty session, organised by the players,
was also crucial in getting the season back on track. Each and every Tigers’ player was told a few home truths, and it had the desired affect. “We were honest with each other about what we needed from each other’s games, moving forward,” Street said. “Sometimes you hear a few things that you know, and sometimes you hear a few things that you’re not aware of, and you don’t realise the team wants that from you. “That seemed to spark us a bit.” Werribee will face CV Blazers in a do-or-die game in the first week of the finals. The Tigers go in as hot favourites having beaten the Blazers convincingly in their two meetings this season. “So we’re going into the game confident that we can get a result,” Street said.

Crunch time for Warriors By Lance Jenkinson Who wants a spot in a preliminary final? That’s the question Hoppers Crossing coach Steven Kretiuk will ask players at training this week. And he would not rule out wholesale changes after the Warriors’ dismal 52-point loss to four-peat premiership hunters Deer Park in the WRFL division 1 second semi-final at Avalon Airport Oval on Saturday. Kretiuk and the selection panel will watch like hawks at training this week, seeking a winning formula for this Saturday’s preliminary final against Altona Vikings back at the Watton Street venue. “We were disappointed with the way we presented ourselves,” Kretiuk said about the weekend’s loss. “We dealt with it, we had a good talk after the game about what we need to get better, and as soon as we walked out of that meeting room, we moved on. “We’ll pick a side this week from the guys who really put their hands up at training and commit themselves to taking this club to another level this week. “I don’t care if we have to rotate in six or eight players, it doesn’t bother me.
“One thing we have got is a lot of faith in our list, a lot of faith in our young guys playing reserves footy. “We’ll give those guys opportunities, the guys who want to put their hand up and really commit themselves to this finals series. “I’m looking forward to training to see who puts their hand up.” Hoppers Crossing only had nine scoring shots for the match, but was still in the contest midway through the third quarter because of Deer Park’s inefficient kicking. While the door was left ajar for the Warriors, they would be victims of their own ineptitude. “We just shot ourselves in the foot with our ball movement and execution,” Kretiuk said. It’s easy to forget the different stages of development when comparing Hoppers Crossing’s young line-up to a Deer Park’s battle hardened side, which is on the verge of WRFL first premiership division 1 four-peat. The Warriors and the Lions were neck and neck all season in the chase for the minor premiership, which gave the illusion they were near level pegging. The cold hard numbers show a sobering reality; Hoppers Crossing is 0-3 against Deer
Park this season, losing by an average of 56 points. “They’re still the benchmark of the competition,” Kretiuk said. “The more exposure we get against sides like Deer Park, the better we’ll get. “We’ve just got to keep playing these finals games and giving these guys finals exposure. “Hopefully, we do that against Altona this week, but it’s going to be a tough ask.” Altona is on a roll in the finals, disposing of Spotswood and Werribee Districts in consecutive weeks. The Warriors have the wood over the Vikings, comfortably accounting for them on both occasions during home-and-away rounds. In division 2, Caroline Springs moved through to the grand final, where it faces Yarraville-Seddon at Avalon Airport Oval on Sunday. The Lakers pulverised North Footscray in the preliminary final by 70 points with full forward Mathew Sutton booting eight goals. In division 3, Tarneit took its last breath, eliminated by Parkside after a 26-point loss. Parkside will face new kids on the block Newport Power in the grand final at Wootten Road Reserve on Saturday.
The Werribee Bears have devoured the entree – now they’re eyeing up the main course. The Bears became the inaugural NRL Victoria 9s champions on Friday night, but have bigger fish to fry this weekend, taking on Casey Warriors in the Victorian first-grade grand final at Casey Fields on Saturday. “It’s a very big week for us,” Bears captain Chase Hoare told Star Weekly. “We’re preparing well for it, we’re doing everything right. We’ve come in a lot more settled than last year.” Werribee is seeking first-grade redemption – and there’s no better way to do it than against Casey, the side that downed the Bears 12 months ago in the season decider. Despite qualifying for the finals in second, the Bears will go into the big one as slight favourites after smashing the Warriors in the first week of the finals. Having tasted grand final defeat at the hands of the same opponents last season, there is no chance of the Bears – searching for their first top-flight title – getting ahead of themselves. “It’s going to be a good game against them,” Hoare said. “We put a good number on them last time [in a 32-10 semi-final win], but that was only one game. “I think we’ve got the team to do it, but it’s going to come down to the better team on the day. “A lot of us are healed up nice and fine now after the break, so we’re ready to rock ’n’ roll.” Werribee won the final of the 9s competition with a 30-10 victory over Casey at AAMI Park on Friday night. The competition has been well received by Victorian clubs, giving them the chance to play on a big stage before Melbourne Storm games and promote the local competition. Bears player-coach Phil Pese was rewarded with player of the tournament honours. “It was a big privilege to be able to play in the competition and to go on and win the title,” Hoare said. “The speed of the game is definitely a step up because there’s not as many on the field … the team that we fielded was a pretty fast side and we adjusted to that. “It’s the first year running … hopefully we can make it a bit of a tradition to win the title.” Lance Jenkinson 71 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 31, 2016

Manor Lakes crowns a stellar climb Manor Lakes went from worst to first in three Victorian Women’s Football League seasons. The Storm barely had the numbers to get a competitive team together three years ago, winning just one game and finishing the season on the bottom with 18.72 per cent. Hit the fast-forward button and the Storm is the toast of the north-west division premiership. “From last to third, to the premiership – it’s a lot of hard work by the girls,” Storm coach Andrew Richards told Star Weekly. “The girls were ecstatic. It was like a fairy tale had come true.” Manor Lakes beat minor premiers Melton Centrals not once but twice in a remarkable finals series. Centrals were unbackable favourites, going through the home-and-away rounds undefeated with a dizzying percentage of 967.94. The top-ranked finalist produced 1268 points and conceded just 131. But somebody forgot to inform Manor Lakes about the odds stacked against them. The Storm showed nerves of steel to win the semi-final over Melton Centrals by a point. And lightning did strike twice – the Storm backed up in the grand final to repeat the dose by six points.

In a remarkable performance, the Storm did not score a single point from the 12-minute mark of the third quarter, resolutely defending a 17-point lead to win 6.3 (39)-4.9 (33) at Coburg City Oval. “The sheer determination was unbelievable,” Richards said. “The last quarter, the ball was inside their forward 50 about 90 per cent of the time. There was always three or four of our girls tackling their one. “There was a lot of bodies being thrown around, tackles, bumps and they were getting
pretty tired, but they well and truly stood up.” Manor Lakes had no weak links. The Storm could not afford to have players below their best if they were to bring down Melton Centrals. Storm’s Jovy Coulson was best-on-ground, magnificent at reading the play in the backline, particularly when the match was up for grabs. “She interpreted the play much better than her opponent,” Richards said. Christie Stone’s tackling pressure was a feature. “I reckon she would’ve had 25 tackles on the day,” Richards said. Suzanne Letzing executed the loose player in defence to perfection, CJ Bonney had a number of eye-catching runs, and Carley Smith was at the base of most packs, while Kellee McIntosh and Yana Frontczak put on the finishing touches with two goals apiece. Manor Lakes will want to move up a division next season. With 10 new players already committed, the Storm could field two women’s teams next season. “We’re looking at building a second team if we can get the numbers,” Richards said. “We want to keep pushing up through the divisions.” Lance Jenkinson
Win-win for Warriors By Lance Jenkinson Westbourne Grammarians provided no surprises this time – just a typically dominant performance. The Warriors have rightfully sealed promotion after a professional 31-point win over Point Cook in the VAFA division 4 second semi-final at St Bernard’s College on Saturday. Mostly the same Warriors side that stumbled out of the finals in straight sets last season was not going to let lightning strike twice, opening up a commanding 25-point lead at quarter-time and never looking back. Warriors playing assistant coach Justin Johns said the players knew what was at stake so came out firing. “There were two prizes – a spot to book in the grand final and a spot to definitely go up to division 3,” he said. “After last year’s disappointment, the boys really made a point that’s where they wanted to be – in division 3. “I think our best footy is good enough to compete with most clubs at the next level. The boys are pretty excited to be going up a division, that’s for sure.” Now it’s time for Westbourne coach Roger Hand to go to work. Teams sealing promotion in week one of the VAFA finals are often found wanting in the grand final. The Warriors have a chance to not only claim a premiership, but also go through the season undefeated. With two weeks between the semi-final and the grand final, Hand will need to find a way to keep his players minds on the job and away from thoughts of next season’s division 3 challenges. “While you’re getting promoted, it would be a bit hollow [to go up as runners up],” Johns said. “We shift our focus straight away to the grand final and prepare as well. “We’ll have a look and see who we’re up against … and then prepare accordingly.” Westbourne’s victory over local rival Point Cook was driven by its hard running wingmen and half-backs. Adam Imber was best-on-ground for his setting up of play off the half-back line. Daniel Stoios and Adam Rompel were defensively stout and also used as attacking weapons out of the back half. Chris Sneddon offered plenty of run and carry on the wing. Key forwards Nick Schiano (four goals) and 72 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 31, 2016

Chris Hudson (three) relished the waves of attack. “We’ve got a lot of different avenues to goal now and don’t just rely on one person,” Johns said. “I think that’s probably our strength now. “Our forward line is what most sides would
find hard to match up on, but that comes on the back of the hard work of our defenders and running midfielders who get it inside 50.” Point Cook will face Mount Lilydale in the preliminary final, with the winner to meet Westbourne Grammarians in the big one.

Bees hold early lead to send SGC home Werribee City relished its role as party-pooper in Sunshine George Cross’s farewell at Chaplin Reserve on Saturday. The Bees claimed a 1-0 win in the historic NPL2 west game, protecting a second-minute lead after a goal from captain Gus Martin. Bees’ coach Sergio Sabbadini didn’t want his players to get caught up in festivities on the day, not at least until after the referee blew the final whistle of the top-tier football season at the famous old ground. “We spoke about that before the game,” Sabbadini said. “We’re coming here to win a game and we’ll join the party after.” Werribee City was desperate to bounce back after a disappointing performance the previous week. The Bees have been tough to crack defensively since Sabbadini took the reins as coach, but conceded five goals in a dismal effort against Melbourne City a week earlier. “We pride ourselves on our defensive game at the moment,” Sabbadini said. “We were really disappointed with conceding five goals the week before, and we revisited that last week at training, and made sure everybody did their jobs properly this week … they were perfect. “They couldn’t break us down.” Werribee City gave promising teenager Cameron Markie his first start. At just 16, Markie slotted into full-back and looked right at home, the latest teenager Sabbadini has given first team action. “I don’t care how old they are, they’ve just got to be good enough, and they’ve got to have the right attitude – then they can play,” Sabbadini said. “Not to say he’ll play every week, but he’s certainly got a good future. “Yasin [Nur] was 15 when we gave him a game, Ibby [Mohamed] is 17, Cameron is 16, Zach [Ahmad] is 18, Ben Mammone is 19. “We’re a pretty young group that’s for sure. We’re sort of getting things ready for next year now.” Werribee City will round out its season hosting Bendigo City at Galvin Park on Saturday. Meanwhile, Hoppers Crossing are champions of the FFV women’s state league 4 west. The Reds capped a fine season with a 6-0 thrashing of Kyneton District at Grange Reserve on Sunday night. Sarah Sumner fired in a hat-trick for the Reds; they finished one point clear of Spring Hills at the top of the ladder. Other Reds’ scorers were Bosiljka Jovetic, Jovana Vukovic and Leonora Wharehinga. Lance Jenkinson
