Subdivision decision deferred By Lachlan Ellis An application for a four-lot subdivision will be addressed for a second time, at Council’s next Development Assessment Committee (DAC), with a recent decision deferred at the 20 April DAC. Council planners recommended that Council refuse to grant a planning permit for the proposed subdivision at 6 Lyndhurst Street, Gordon, but Councillors voted to defer their decision to give the applicant more time. Cr Moira Berry requested the deferral, which was seconded by Cr Paul Tatchell, but opposed by Cr Rod Ward. “I believe the applicant hadn’t seen the content of the report and wasn’t aware of the details. He wasn’t aware of it being refused, or the grounds of why it was being refused either. He’d like a chance to speak to the item, that’s the reason for the deferral,” Cr Berry explained. “I think it’s common that we do this, in the interest of the democratic process,” Cr Tatchell added. Cr Ward argued that the applicant had been informed about Council’s intentions for his application. “I just note that Council wrote to the applicant regarding the lack of sufficient justification for the proposed amendments, and the applicant chose not to respond,” he said. Cr Berry said the applicant had contacted her and told her he “hadn’t seen the content of the report”. Crs Ally Munari, Moira Berry and Paul Tatchell voted in favour of the deferral, while Cr Ward voted against, and Cr David Edwards abstained. Therefore, the deferral was approved, and the matter will be heard again at the next DAC on 18 May. Cr Tom Sullivan declared a conflict of interest and left the room prior to the application being discussed, due to doing surveying work for the applicant. Deputy Mayor Cr Tonia Dudzik, officiated as the Chair.

Forest salvaging not logging By Lachlan Ellis Over 100 people have protested a “destructive salvage operation” undertaken in the Wombat State Forest, though the State Government says the works are merely to reduce fire risk. On Good Friday, members of the Wombat Forestcare group took to the Wombat State Forest with signs bearing slogans such as “stop the destruction” and “VicForest salvage savages”, opposing what they call an “industrial scale salvage operation”. Gayle Osborne from Wombat Forestcare said VicForests’ actions put local wildlife and the environment at risk. “The local community fought long and hard for the forest’s protection from logging and for its protection with park status, and are now very distressed and angry to see this environmental destruction,” Ms Osborne said. “This block of the Wombat Forest is considered to have conservation values that make it deserving of national park status, including a large population of greater gliders, a species threatened with extinction.” Last June, the State Government committed to establishing three new National Parks, including a ‘Wombat-Lerderderg National Park’, following the Victorian Environmental Assessment Council (VEAC) Central West investigation. Ms Osborne argues the operations in the Wombat State Forest “completely ignore the government’s undertaking to protect the environment and biodiversity”. But Victorian Minister for Regional Development MaryAnne Thomas, whose District of Macedon takes in much of the Wombat State Forest, said VicForests’ works were no cause for concern. “Many members of my community have contacted me about the amount of fallen and hazardous trees and debris. We know Wombat State Forest was one of the hardest hit areas during the storms in June last year, and VicForests, in partnership with Traditional Owners, is clearing only fallen and windblown trees,” Ms Thomas told the Moorabool News.

Photo - Sandy Scheltema “No trees are being removed unless they present a safety or operational hazard.” VicForests follows a ‘Timber Utilisation Plan’, a formal mechanism under which some timber will be removed during the recovery efforts for the forest. All works will also adhere to the ‘Code of Practice for Timber Production’. DJAARA Chief Executive Officer on the Wombat Forest, Rodney Carter, said DJAARA was working with VicForests to ensure the forest was restored in an environmentally friendly way. “Our Country as Landscape has been modified in many ways, so placing us back into the Landscape allows a positive

influence on the Country’s plants and animals’ healthy future. We better understand now how our Forest Gardening is applied to create open woodlands as our Ancestors had created in forested areas,” Mr Carter said. “Our priority in the greater Wombat Forest area is to restore the undergrowth to its natural ecology by removing the fallen trees from the 2021 storms, and we are actively working with VicForests as they assist our capacity to care for Country in the restoration and clean-up.” Royalties from timber sales will be paid to local Traditional Owners Corporation DJAARA, for restoration, healing, and care for Country.

Pollies invited to commit a splash of cash With the federal election less than a month away, Moorabool Shire Mayor Cr Tom Sullivan has invited the Prime Minister and Opposition Leader to Moorabool, to discuss Federal funding. High on Council’s agenda is obtaining funding for an indoor pool, a facility that has been desired and advocated for by the community for many years. “Building an indoor pool in Bacchus Marsh is one of our highest advocacy priorities, and we’d love both sides of the federal government to commit funding for it,” Cr Sullivan said. “We hope they will use their cap and goggles on a return visit to see what they’ve helped create and test it out with a swim,” he said. In a Council survey, 56 per cent of respondents said they had to travel outside the Shire, to participate in swimming activities at indoor pools in other municipalities. An indoor pool would form the third and final stage of the Moorabool Aquatic and Recreation Centre (MARC), with Stage One being an Indoor Sports Stadium, and Stage Two being a Regional Bowls Facility.

The facility recently began construction on Stage One at Taverner Street, Bacchus Marsh. “Council has already made a huge investment of close to $15 million to build the indoor stadium component of MARC, a facility that will be used by residents throughout Moorabool and beyond,” Cr Sullivan said. “We’re asking for both the federal and state governments to commit to providing funding for a project that we know will create massive economic benefit to the region.” Council has also highlighted a number of other key priorities for funding in its letter to Mr Morrison and Mr Albanese, including a regional bowls facility, Stage 4 of the Bald Hill summit trail, female friendly change rooms for Dunnstown Recreation Reserve, and the sewering of Bungaree and Wallace. “We’d love to have both leaders visit us so we can highlight some of our priority projects, show them our advocacy prospectus, and let them experience the beauty of our Shire,” Cr Sullivan said.

It was a very Good Friday By Lachlan Ellis

Over $50,000 has been raised locally for the Good Friday Appeal, with the Moorabool community giving generously to volunteer tin-shakers and collection containers across the Shire. The Bacchus Marsh Lions Club raised $30,643.67 over the last 12 months, beating last year’s total of $30,338.60. David Atterbury coordinates the Good Friday fundraiser for the Club, and said he was amazed at the total raised. “I’m absolutely stoked, very happy with the amount raised. It’s probably the sort of target we hoped to raise, but because of so much lockdown over the last 12 months, it was a bit of a surprise,” Mr Atterbury told the Moorabool News. “People are extremely generous come that last week, particularly on Good Friday. The Appeal has been a part of what we do for so long…for me, it’s important because they saved the life of my son when he was seven years old, so it was a very easy decision to make when I was asked to look after fundraising for this area.” Fire brigades further west raised close to $20,000, with Ballan, Greendale, and Gordon Fire Brigades raising a combined total of $18,960.50, and Mt Egerton Fire Brigade collected $617.65 for the cause. Ballan CFA member and fundraising co-ordinator, Ian Ireland, said the total was a fantastic effort for a small community. “It’s a tremendous effort … it’s a worthwhile cause, and something CFA has traditionally always been involved in. Thanks have got to be given to all those people that came out and collected, on a day when they could’ve stayed home or done something with their families, but they gave their time so willingly,” he said. “If you have a look at the country board and look at some of the bigger towns, some don’t raise as much. We have some very generous people in our community. We’d like to thank Steptoes Op Shop too, they contributed $5,000 to the tally. That’s run by the Community House now, they’ve carried on the Lionesses’ tradition. What they contribute to our community and to charities is incredible.” The virtual tin for the Ballan Fire Brigade is still open, so if you’d like to provide a belated donation www.virtualtinshake.com.au/fundraisers/Ballan.

THE NATIONAL TALLY Nationally, a record-breaking $22,328,154 was raised for the Appeal, with $2,581,661 of that tally coming from regional and rural Victoria. Executive Director of the Good Friday Appeal, Rebecca Cowan, thanked everyone who had been a part of this year’s Appeal, whether through volunteering or donating. “From the millions of dollars donated by the RCH Auxiliaries, Woolworths, CFA, Henley and Villawood, The Herald Sun/Transurban Run for the Kids, through to funds raised by local lemonade stands, pub trivia nights and handmade craft stores, the Appeal sends its heartfelt thanks,” Ms Cowan said. “The 2022 Good Friday Appeal has been made possible thanks to the thousands of committed collectors, volunteers, devoted tin rattlers, exceptional area managers, corporate partners, community groups and the people of Victoria. It is because of their dedication that Australian children are able to receive the best care possible.” This year’s tally is over $5 million more than last year’s total of $17,122,879, and over $4 million more than the previous record raised - $18,200,000 in 2020.

Designs help conservation A local school has joined forces with Parks Victoria, to design and build signs raising awareness for local wildlife and vital habitat trees. Environmental Science students at Bacchus Marsh Grammar designed signs which explain the importance of ‘habitat trees’, which are used by over 300 species of wildlife across Australia. The signs have been placed in the Lerderderg State Park and Brisbane Ranges National Park, with an official launch in March attended by Bacchus Marsh Grammar students, and staff from Parks Victoria and the Department of Land, Water and Environment (DELWP). Parks Victoria’s Area Chief Ranger, Stuart Lardner, said some might look at a habitat tree and think it is a piece of debris instead of an important ecosystem. “Signage is important to educate visitors, so they don’t interfere with habitat trees,” he said. “We were delighted to work on the new visitor signage with Bacchus Marsh Grammar. The signs will make a great difference illustrating the importance of protecting habitat trees in parks.”

Call a qualified gasfitter today.

Education Officer Vanessa Wiggenraad said the collaboration was a great opportunity for the students to both learn about local wildlife, and contribute to the health of the local ecosystem. “The students were really interested to learn about the different animals like the vulnerable brush-tailed phascogale who regularly breed and live within the habitat trees,” she said. “The students were thrilled to see their work printed for display throughout the park. It was a great opportunity for the local community to make a positive impact in their neighbourhood.” Ms Wiggenraad said there are many things that go into making an effective sign, but the Bacchus Marsh Grammar students handled the task exceptionally. “You can't have too much text and it needs to be eye-catching. It is harder than it looks to condense all the important information required into a couple of sentences. The class did an amazing job,” she said. The class created a range of designs, before picking one from the group to feature across the parklands.

No age limit to study and exhibit By Lachlan Ellis A local artist has relished the opportunity to have her work displayed to the public recently. Fortunate to have her work on exhibition in Ballan, Concetta McFall is a well-known Ballan resident and volunteer at the Ballan Community House, and an exhibition of her work was held at the Leslie Batchelor Gallery in mid April. The exhibition was marked with an opening night where Ms McFall thanked attendees and those who had helped her along the way, including Lyn Plummer and Michelle Gersch from the Ballan Community House. Ms McFall said that she’d always been interested in art, but developing it beyond an interest had only been a recent decision. “Art has always been a focal point in my life; it is a vehicle for storytelling and relating of family history. It is only in the last six years that I wanted my art to develop into more than just a hobby,” Ms McFall told the Moorabool News. Ms McFall said holding her first solo exhibition in her home town at the Ballan Community House’s Lesley Batchelor Gallery, is another dream come true. “I am fortunate to learn from Lyn Plummer, Manager, and Facilities Coordinator Rodney Browne, both exhibiting artists over many years, on how to mount a successful exhibition,” she said. “The Ballan Community House and the Lesley Batchelor Gallery are an invaluable resource in the Moorabool Shire.”

changed her life and given meaning to it. One of the hardest things for an artist is to find out what it is you want to say,” Ms Plummer said. “I’ll leave each of you to take the work in and contemplate this great journey through the experiments Concetta’s gone through with the graphite and pastel spheres, floating in space and the small canvases.”

Why this critical infrastructure is needed

TM

The Western Victoria Transmission Network Project will bring cheaper, cleaner renewable energy to Victorians. It’s a simple, powerful goal with several key drivers: Transport energy from where it is generated Western Victoria is blessed with some of the best resources in Australia to create wind and solargenerated electricity. But the existing transmission network was never designed to collect renewable energy from the West of the State. The transmission network is currently set up to collect coal-fired power from the Latrobe Valley . This project will unlock that locally-generated renewable electricity for all Victorians. Help meet emissions targets The vast majority of Australians have made it clear they want Australia to do its part in keeping global temperatures down and that means cutting carbon emissions as soon as possible so we achieve the national target of net zero by 2050. This project will help achieve that by fast-tracking clean electricity. Ensure energy reliability and keep power bills down Over the past 12 months it has been announced that a significant amount of the coal-fired electricity generators in the Latrobe Valley that Victoria relies on will be shutting down faster than planned, so there

is real pressure on the State to make sure renewable electricity from the Western renewables link fills the gap to stop power bills soaring and to ensure we keep the lights on. This is a race. With many coal stations set to retire by 2030-40 - some even sooner - it really isn’t that far away. Especially when it can take around 10 years to build new infrastructure that will connect renewable generators to the grid in Victoria to keep the power flowing to homes and businesses. But the good news is that planning for the 190km Western renewables link is well advanced. Projects like this renewable link will help Victoria achieve our renewable goals. This project alone will power half a million Victorian homes with clean energy, employ 300 people during construction and unlock billions in investment across the local region through new renewable projects, creating a pipeline of jobs for years to come as well as new industries for the region to support the renewable sector.

A creation of cards By Lachlan Ellis

A new exhibition will be held at Lerderderg Library next month, with a local, lifelong artist eager to have her work on display for the community to enjoy. Joan Addison’s ‘Tawny Creations’ exhibition will begin on 2 May, with the hand decorated cards on display at Lerderderg Library’s Arena space until 31 May. The name ‘Tawny Creations’ was inspired by a visiting tawny frogmouth, which spent two days and nights sitting on the stair railing outside Ms Addison’s front door. Ms Addison said she had been into arts and crafts for many years, and the idea to sell her own cards had sprung from cardmaking for her family. “From learning knitting and crochet at my nana’s knee, learning dressmaking from my aunt so as to clothe myself as an impoverished uni student, not to mention quilting, patchwork, embroidery, sewing dolls clothes and clothes for my children, craft of some kind has been part of my life for a very long time,” she said. “I now create hand decorated cards, which started just with cards and stickers for my grandchildren. The gift of a die cut and embossing machine from my family, led me to classes where I learnt to work with distress, oxide, and pigment inks, mostly watercolour paints, water colour pencils, pan pastels, hot and dry embossing, die cutting, and many more exciting things.” All cards at the exhibition are for sale, and details on how to buy them will be available at the exhibition. She also holds 2-hour card creation classes on the third Wednesday and Thursday of the month for $15. With the money from card sales, Ms Addison hopes to build an office and support a ladies’ sewing project run by a charity in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. Ms Addison’s exhibition is being held as part of the 2022 Moorabool Libraries Art Spaces Program. For more information, contact Joan Addison via email at tawnycreations2016@icloud.com.

Bostock back in e Council Indigenous hands

Local Wadawurrung members conducted a smoking ceremony at the announcement in 2019. Photo – Barwon Water.

The Moorabool News – 26 April, 2022 Page 9 By Lachlan Ellis A 54-hectare section of land at Bostock Reservoir is back in the hands of Traditional Owners, with plans ongoing to put the land to both recreational and productive use. Barwon Water sold the land, which lies just a short distance from the Ballan township and in the heart of Wadawurrung Country, to the Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation (WTOAC) in August 2019. WTOAC CEO Paul Davis said the sale was a significant moment for the Wadawurrung people. “The area of the Wadawurrung Registered Aboriginal Party is over a million hectares. Up until the purchase of that land, all that the Corporation owned on their behalf was 800 square metres in Ballarat,” Mr Davis told the Moorabool News. “Without wanting to sound like I’m speaking for them, the views that have been expressed to me are that they’re glad they’ve got something back. Somewhere they can go to and have free use of. “What they’ve decided they want to do, is make the land available for Traditional Owners to spend time at, whether that be camping or other ways to spend time with one another. Also, they have views around setting

up a small enterprise in natural resource management. They started to do that from around June to July last year, they’re working gradually to build that up.” Managing Director at Barwon Water, Tracey Slatter, said the land was not needed by the company, and its sale to Wadawurrung supported reconciliation efforts. “We sold the unused land at Bostock Reservoir in 2019 as part of our property realisation program, which maximises the value economically, environmentally and socially of our unused assets to our customers and our region,” Ms Slatter said. “The sale of the 54-hectare parcel of then-Barwon Water-owned land to Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation, following a Valuer-General’s valuation, also supported key actions in our Reconciliation Action Plan to partner with and support First Nations people in our service area. “Sale proceeds of the landholding, which was no longer required for operational purposes, also helped us to keep downward pressure on customers’ water bills.” Bostock Reservoir was not sold in its entirety – the reservoir itself is still owned by Barwon Water as part of the regional supply system.

The Moorabool News – 26 April, 2022 Page 11

Delay for street name change By Lachlan Ellis A proposed name change for a street in Ballan has been put on hold, with an ongoing State Government review standing as an obstacle. A recommendation came before the 6 April Ordinary Meeting of Council (OMC), to approve renaming of the section of Duncan Street, Ballan off Simpson Street to ‘Shamrock Court’. The landowner at 26 Duncan Street suggested the ‘Shamrock Court’ name, as the noncontiguous nature of the street “causes her property to be difficult to locate due to vehicles not being able to access this section of road via Inglis Street”, according to the recommendation. Concerns around mail delivery and emergency services delays were raised by the landowner. However, an objector at the 6 April OMC, Helen Tatchell, suggested the street instead be named ‘Simpson Court’. Citing historical records, Ms Tatchell argued that Simpson Court would be a more appropriate name, and would help mail delivery workers and emergency services locate the court. “I’ll just explain some brief background. I read from the Ballan Shire Historical Society’s ‘The Settler’, which is their newsletter, from June 2003, Volume 7 Number 2. In June 2002, Moorabool Shire Council attracted funding under the State Government’s ‘Pride and Place Program’…in that, they wanted to develop street signage,” Ms Tatchell said. “In that study, they found that there was an early map of Ballan township, dated 1856. And in that, there was a survey done of the town…

within that framework, the names of eight streets were identified. One included Simpson Street. Of those streets, they were named to recognise persons of significance in Ballan. “In that, we have Mr Simpson. He was, from around 1854 to 1855, acknowledged in the Walsh Papers, and a reference was made in the Densley and Lewin memoirs, as an early school teacher. Mr Simpson was alleged to be the first teacher at the denominational school established by the Church of England in Ballan.” Ms Tatchell said a street name should be after a person of historical significance or for a person who has had some sort of standing within the community. “The Shamrock is just an emblem of Ireland, a piece of clover grass even,” she told the Moorabool News. “Currently, there are two properties in Simpson Street that have their letter boxes in Duncan Street, just metres from the applicants. The mail person already identifies with the name Simpson. There is no entry from Inglis to Duncan, so anyone wanting to stay at this Air B&B, would have to navigate to Simpson Street anyway. Confusing I know, but logical.” The name change to Simpson Court was supported by Cr Tonia Dudzik, however, Council moved unanimously to defer the motion until an ongoing State Government review on naming conventions has concluded. Council cannot change street names without State Government approval, as all proposed street name changes in Victoria are overseen by Geographic Names Victoria, a State Government agency. The applicant did not request to speak at the meeting.

Rotary award for her service By Lachlan Ellis A policewoman from Bacchus Marsh has thanked Rotary for its support, after winning a Rotary Community Award this month. Leading Senior Constable Joanne Mutsaerts lives in Bacchus Marsh but works in Melton, and said the recognition by such an important community group was humbling. The award was the first of its kind awarded by the Rotary Club of Melton, and LSC Mutsaerts was also its sole winner, at the North West Metro Division 3 Police Awards on Monday 11 April. “It was a massive honour; it was the first time that Melton Rotary had handed out that award. Being recognised in towards the name that Rotary holds, I think it was a massive honour,” she told the Moorabool News. “On the back of what our community on a whole has gone through in the last two years…it’s been tough going. Hopefully we can come out the other side and return to some normality within the wider community, and get back to what we know and love about our community.” She was also recognised – belatedly, as has been the case with so many awards thanks to the pandemic – for her long career, being awarded for 25 years of dedicated service.

LSC Mutsaerts said she still loves her job after close to 28 years in the force, and felt privileged to serve. “I still love coming to work. I think the fact that I get to work amongst the community giving back helps. That’s something I really enjoy. Being there sometimes for someone’s worst day, and sometimes their best day… it’s a mix of emotions at different times,” she said. “When I look at the work with victims of crime and that sort of thing, just to be there as a helping hand to get them back on their feet is vital. It’s the most devastating moment for some people that they’ll ever experience. To know where that support is or where we can make some referrals is really important.” State MP for Melton, Steve McGhie, congratulated LSC Mutsaerts for winning the award, and thanked her for her long service to the local community. “Jo is a leading example of the many great Victoria Police in our area. To be recognised by Rotary is a testament to her standing in our community. I recognise and appreciate her long service to the community and Victoria,” Mr McGhie said. The Rotary Community Award complements an Australian Police Medal (APM) LSC Mutsaerts was awarded in June 2020, being one of just 12 Victoria Police recipients that year.

Opportunity for young coders

By Lachlan Ellis Information Technology (IT) is an industry that doesn’t look like slowing down any time soon, and young Mooraboolites now have the chance to learn about coding for free in a fun, relaxed environment. CoderDojo is a global program of free programming workshops, and thanks to local volunteers, a Ballan chapter of the program has opened this year, open to ages 7 to 18. Patrick Bonello is a Ballan resident and also a mentor for ‘CoderDojo @ Ballan Library’, and said the sessions offered a useful start to coding. “The CoderDojo is about giving kids a space to be able to be creative with coding, so either learning how to make games, or program little robots. It’s a location for kids that maybe don’t fit into that traditional sporting environment, but want to be able to interact and engage, and learn how to code in a space that’s really conducive,” Mr Bonello told the Moorabool News. “It’s about the kids deciding what they want to do, it’s not a classroom. Essentially, it’s a club for kids to get together and learn how to code. Technology is such a part of our integrated lifestyle, that getting kids involved can set them up for a career in something they’re really passionate about.” Mr Bonello said it wasn’t unusual for the sessions that have been run so far to be at capacity, and hoped more volunteer mentors would get on-board in the future, to give more kids the opportunity to get involved. Ashley Nicholls, who moved to Ballan less than three years ago, has been a driving figure in getting the program organised in Ballan.

Letters to the Editor Dear Editor, With respect, as just another ordinary member of our proud community for the past 34-years, I was rather disappointed with the choice of a political advertisement, disguised as an article, on the front page of the last edition (M/News 19 April), which suggested that our communities best interest was the main objective. Gary Shaw Ballan

He said taking part in Moorabool Shire Council’s Community Leadership Program had helped him get the local chapter of CoderDojo off the ground. “When we moved to Ballan, I tried to work out what I could be a part of. With country towns, it’s great to be active with others,” Mr Nicholls said. “I saw Moorabool Shire’s Community Leadership Program, and got involved with that. I wasn’t sure what I really wanted to do, and the program I was originally planning wasn’t really possible thanks to COVID…but I built a good network with the Council. “I put a post up on a Ballan community group, asking if any adults would like to be part of a coding group. I got no response other than Bec who works at the Shire, who said her kids would like to do something. I did some research on what was out there, and found the CoderDojo program … it all went from there.” After trials late last year, CoderDojo had its first full sessions at the Ballan Library in Term 1 this year. CoderDojo @ Ballan Library sessions run fortnightly during school terms, with Term 2 sessions running on Saturday 7 May, Saturday 21 May, Saturday 4 June, and Saturday 18 June, all from 1 pm to 3 pm. For attendees 12 and under, a parent or guardian must join you for the session. A laptop is also required for the sessions. If you don’t have one, let Moorabool Libraries know in advance and one can be supplied. For any enquiries or to reserve a laptop, email ballan_library. au@coderdojo.com, or ring Moorabool Libraries on 5366 7100. Dear Editor, Ausnet Ad perfect example of deception Ausnet’s Western Victoria Transmission Network Project advertisement in the Moorabool News (12 April, Page 4) is a perfect illustration of their deception and lack of transparency about this project. Why does the photo show one lone wind turbine in a picturesque sunset? The project is about 85m high steel transmission towers stretching 180km through our communities and environment. Clearly a photo of towers is too ugly to even put in their own advertising. Shame on you AusNet – show the true and whole picture of how your ugly and dangerous towers will sherdominate our farming landscapes. Nick & Vicki Sher Ballan

Ballan Golf Club Results - Week ending Saturday 16 April

Navigators C3 Premiers – (L-R) Perrie Grant, Archie Grant, Rye Hateley and Jarvie Stephens. Photo – submitted

Big win for small club

The season may have concluded however, it is not too late to acknowledge the winners from a local sporting organisation. The Navigators Tennis Club fielded two junior teams in the C3 category with both making it through to finals. The C3 Yellow and C3 Green teams made it through to the semi-finals with only the C3 Green side progressing to the grand final. The finals berths were a turnaround for the club who have only been back on the court for the last two years; they were dormant for four years prior due to a lack of players. Navigators Green faced Meredith Blue in the C3 Buninyong District Tennis

Association Summer Pennant grand final, at the Buninyong courts. The match started evenly with both teams winning their opening games. Navigators soon drew away to take the win. Final score – Navigators Green 3/22 def Meredith Blue 1/11. Archie Grant won Best Player in C3 for the overall season. In season 2021/22 the club fielded two junior teams, with a total of nine players. Interested in becoming involved as a player or a volunteer at the Navigators Tennis club?

Greg Sugars and his charge One Over All. By Tim O'Connor (HRV) Top Myrniong reinsman Greg Sugars claimed to have coined the “True Mildura Style” catchphrase after an action-packed running of the 2022 Aaron Bain Racing Mildura Trotters Cup on Friday night. Sugars and his charge One Over All had to withstand some serious pressure through the race, but eventually prevailed with a convincing success in the Group 3 feature. One Over All was heavily supported in betting and strolled quickly to the lead after getting away cleanly from the standing start, but didn’t get it all his own way for long. Nathan Jack and Illawong Stardust surged up quickly from their 30m back mark to pour on the pressure in the early stages and sat parked until galloping shortly after the bell.

From there, the race was in One Over All’s control and he cruised down to score by 8m over runner-up Indefensible (Daryl Crone/Neil McCallum) with Garshaway (Laura Crossland) third. The mile rate of 2:04.3min was less than two seconds outside

the 2600m standing start record set by Our Twentyten in 2016. “I’m going to pen a phrase here, and I don’t know if you’ve heard it before, but True Mildura Style. I think that’s what it was,” Sugars said with a laugh in the post-race interview. “I was getting away with murder early and was just starting to think to myself it was probably only a matter of time until someone comes looking… most likely it was going to be Nathan and there he was, quick as a flash. “I didn’t expect to get it all my own way for too long and that’s what racing’s all about here. You’ve got to get up and into it if you think you’re good enough and have a crack. “Thankfully our horse, he stood up and was counted tonight.” The four-year-old gelding was only having his fifth start for trainer Jess Tubbs on Friday night after being sent to her Myrniong stable from New Zealand late last year. His second Australian victory takes his record to seven wins from 27 starts.

Cobras salute in ANZAC thriller Darley v Bacchus Marsh – By Todd Whelan Bacchus Marsh needed the last goal of the game to clinch a one-point win over town rival Darley to go 2-0 for the first time since 2016. The Cobras led at every change to deny a desperate Devils outfit who hit the front halfway through the last quarter to lead by as much as 11 points, only to be denied by unlikely hero Tyler Huynh who snapped truly in the dying moments. A monster crowd made the trip to an ‘under construction’ Darley Park to witness another chapter in the healthy rivalry between these two willing combatants. The Cobras win narrows the Anzac blockbuster record back to 4-5 in favour of the Devils. But that record accounted for very little at 5.30pm Saturday as contrasting emotions hijacked the landscape at the final siren. Darley Club President Mark Shelley addressed the players, officials and crowd with an Anzac tribute and later awarded the Greg Light Medal to Andy Azzopardi (Darley best) and Laurie Wheelahan Medal to Jake Owen (Bacchus Marsh best). Shelly along with RSL dignitaries made heartwarming tributes upon reflection putting the days occasion into perspective. Cobras Captain Jake Owen was the star, led from the front with his contested marking and three goals. Nick Stuhldrier was the sole midfielder in the first half to find any real space as weight of numbers around the ball made it difficult to extricate, leading to countless stoppages. It was an arm wrestle first half, far from a highly skilled, free running contest you could expect in perfect conditions. Pressure around stoppage proved the catalyst for poor disposal, while perceived pressure played its own role, impacting the youth especially with their execution on arguably the biggest stage finals aside. Azzopardi gave the spark the Devils needed, a rare breath of fresh air with his run and carry amidst the traffic jam. The youngster took the game on, and had one of his better days managing the football. His three goals kept the Devils within a kick on just as many occasions. Key Devils forward Nick Rodda (5 goals) was terrific in just his second game in the Black and White but as far as aerial targets for the Devils forward of centre, the former Williamstown big man was their only success. Brett Bewley was given little protection at the coal face and while he had his moments, was denied the game on his own terms. While Nick Stuhldrier had his plentiful share of the footy, Cobras playing Coach Tom German was made right at home amid the stop start nature of the game especially in the first half. German willed himself from stoppage to stoppage and his in and under numbers may not reflect their importance on the stats sheet. Harry King played one of his better derby’s, while Cobras newbie Michael Culliver was important with his run and handball receives in the second half. Tyler Huynh (four goals) was the most effective small forward on the ground and will sleep well this week. And for those who missed the Owen, Matthew Brett enthralling battle, you’ll have to wait until round 16 for the encore. The Cobras bank their second win of the season albeit by the barest of margins. They return home this week for a week three footy audit against flag fancies Melton. Darley travel to Melton South, keen to atone and go ahead with their win/ loss. 1-1 sits okay with new coach Dan Jordan is up for the journey ahead. Saturday marks part three. *Saturday Apple 98.5FM - Bacchus Marsh vs Melton - LIVE RADIO 2pm. WHAT THE COACHES SAID Where was the game was won and lost? JORDAN (Darley) - We competed hard, I was proud of our effort and was just on the wrong side of a tight one. Our inexperience cost us in the clinches, but we’ll learn a lot from today. GERMAN (B/Marsh) - Was an even game. We showed some composure in the clinches. Rate your ‘forwards’ performance JORDAN - It was good to see (Nick) Rodda clunk a few, he’ll be even better for the run. We’ve got some work to do with our connection and crumbing around our talls. GERMAN - Solid but we remain a work in progress in this area.
