SARAH HARRIS QUE SERA

OUR COVER: John Weldon is looking forward to taking part in the Melbourne Writers’ Festival. Story: 10-11 Picture: Scott McNaughton

To know eternity, be a weekend patient eems there’s no escaping your genetic destiny. My grandmother became very food-focused after her stroke and so, too, has my mother. This explains why — though she knows she should never do so — my mum attempted to walk unaided and unsupervised across her room to reach a biscuit tin, and how she happened to come crashing down. The fall happened just after 11am. Of course, it was a weekend when people are crashing about doing all sorts of things, which is why it took two hours to get an ambulance to drive her the 300 metres from the nursing home to the hospital next door. The on-call doctor arrived at 4pm. He very gently assessed that she’d broken her arm in at least two places but couldn’t confirm this because the hospital radiology department is unattended at weekends. She needed to be moved to a larger hospital. An ambulance was called at 5pm. One arrived to deposit another patient at 7pm and, just as the paramedics were about to reload their gurney with Mum, they got a code 1 call. At 10.30pm, Mum was finally loaded into an ambulance and at 12.45am she was X-rayed. That allowed staff to remove her torturous neck brace, but it confirmed a small bleed on the brain, which required advice from a neurosurgeon. Just after midday, Mum was moved from the accident and emergency department into the surgical ward. Now, more than 24 hours since the fall, she still couldn’t eat or drink anything until an orthopaedic surgeon assessed her. At 6.45pm he arrived. She will not be having surgery today. Fifteen minutes later, Mum finally has a cup of tea, but something’s missing . . . something from 36 hours earlier. Can I have a biscuit, please?

Thousand say enough of TAFE funding cuts A PETITION containing more than 1000 signatures calling for the reversal of drastic cuts to TAFE funding has been delivered to Premier Ted Baillieu. The petition of Victoria University staff and students and western suburbs residents calls on the government to abandon about $300 million in funding cuts that are expected to heavily affect students from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. Western suburbs Greens MP Colleen Hartland delivered the petition to the Premier yesterday. “Victoria University TAFE plays a crucial role in educating the western suburbs community,” she said. “Victoria University staff and students are already feeling the pain of the TAFE cuts as redundancies take effect and courses are cut. I will stand up in Parliament and call on the Premier to not cut TAFE in the west.” Federal Maribyrnong MP and

Employment Minister Bill Shorten has also taken aim at the TAFE cuts. He welcomed yesterday’s forecasts by the Department of Employment, Education and Workplace Relations showing Melbourne’s western and outer western suburbs are expected to lead the nation in job creation over the next five years, but he pointed to the need for the right skills to match the opportunities. New research by the department predicts that in the five years to 2016-17, outer western Melbourne is projected to record the largest increase nationally with employment increasing by 33,600. “Our greatest challenge will be to equip our children and existing workers who are making the transition to new jobs or new roles with the skills they need to feed the demand for new workers,” he said. “My department is predicting that

Stop the cuts: TAFE student Naz Mahari (front) presents the petition to Colleen Hartland. the greatest growth in jobs will come from service industries and from skilled roles. ‘‘It should be an even more salient reminder to the Baillieu government that we need more, not less, invest-

ment in skills and education, and to reconsider its myopic policy on TAFE funding.” Federal Tertiary Education Minister Chris Evans has warned Victoria’s share of vocational funding is being

placed at risk by its cuts to the public TAFE sector. But Victorian Higher Education Minister Peter Hall says his aim is to grow the sector and more Victorians will receive training under the new funding model.

Commuters credit PSOs for ‘safe havens’ BY BENJAMIN MILLAR THE roll-out of Protective Services Officers (PSOs) at Footscray and other railway stations in Melbourne has been broadly backed by train travellers and local police. A survey of more than 1700 night-time travellers, including 357 at Yarraville station, found four in five people strongly agreed that PSOs patrolling railway stations is a good idea, and they would readily seek assistance from a PSO. PSO patrols are due to begin at Yarraville early next month. Police Minister Peter Ryan said the survey data indicated 41 per cent of respondents strongly

[ 4 ] WEEKLY – YOUR COMMUNITY VOICE

agreed having PSOs patrol train stations would influence them to travel more often by train after 6pm. “This is not just about addressing the incidence of crime and antisocial behaviour at train stations, but also about changing the perception of safety and creating an environment that will support greater use of the rail network.” The ‘Protective Services Officers Research’ survey found the less frequently people travelled at night, the less safe they tended to feel. People also reported feeling safer on trains than at train stations and safer during MondayThursday than on Friday and Saturday nights. Footscray police inspector Tony Long said

August 15, 2012

police and station staff had observed a sharp decline in reports of graffiti and vandalism at Footscray station since PSOs began patrolling from 6pm in May. ‘‘We feel they are a real asset to have here in Footscray,’’ he said. ‘‘They have made a number of arrests, but probably more importantly they have provided a safe haven at the station.’’ Inspector Long said police resources had been freed up to deal with other problems across the area. The state government has allocated $212 million to recruit, train and deploy PSOs at every metropolitan train station as well as four major regional centres from 6pm until the last train

every night of the year. A total of 116 PSOs are now patrolling Flinders Street, Southern Cross, Melbourne Central, Footscray, Dandenong, Parliament, Richmond, North Melbourne, Box Hill, Epping and Noble Park. This is still only a fraction of the 940 pledged by Premier Ted Baillieu before the last election. The Premier remains hopeful of reaching the target by November 2014, but Labor is critical of a doubling in the total cost of the policy in just 18 months. Victoria Police Chief Commissioner Ken Lay said Footscray was one of the first stations chosen because of high passenger numbers and existing crime rates.

All ready: Anthony Albanese (centre) turns the sod to mark the start of the rail link works. Pictured with him at front are mayor John Cumming and Nicola Roxon. Victorian Public Transport Minister Terry Mulder promised that service disruptions and road closures would be made up for with increased rail timetable services and reliability. “The west is developing quickly because of its close proximity to the CBD,” he said. “Residential development out here is booming. We want to make sure that the stations we build actually become a part of the community, and that’s exactly what this project will do.” Work on the 25-kilometre Deer Park to West Werribee section of track will begin later in the year.

‘‘A range of improvements to connectivity, safety, accessibility and amenity in the West Footscray precinct are proposed, should the Rising Sun footbridge not be replaced.” She said a review of pedestrian travel paths showed that there was very little, if any, difference in distance to key locations as a consequence of removing the footbridge. Seddon mother Shannon Lea argues the proposed works, such as crossings and lighting, should already be part of the West Footscray station redevelopment.

replacement to fund other works in the area. The decision was deferred to a meeting last night, but council officers are still seeking additional information. It is now expected that the matter will be revisited at a council meeting next month. A project spokeswoman said the RRL project team was working closely with the council on the West Footscray precinct. “A number of options were considered for the track alignment. However, no option was able to avoid impact to the Rising Sun footbridge,’’ said the spokeswoman.

MARIBYRNONG Council has again delayed announcing whether it supports rebuilding West Footscray’s Rising Sun footbridge. The pedestrian bridge, which crosses the rail corridor between Barkly and Gordon streets, will be removed next year as part of Regional Rail Link works. A group of residents is fighting for the footbridge to be replaced, but a council report has backed the Regional Rail Link Authority’s decision not to rebuild. Last month, councillors were due to vote on a proposal to use the money saved from bridge

Charges follow Braybrook raid

BY BENJAMIN MILLAR

Beatty, Parsons Brinckerhoff and Sinclair Knight Merz. Gellibrand MP Nicola Roxon said the project would deliver quicker travel times for western suburbs commuters. Work now under way in Footscray is expected to create noise, traffic and parking issues around Albert and Irving streets. Albert Street will be closed between Short and Raleigh streets while the Albert Street bridge is demolished and rebuilt to fit new tracks through the rail corridor. Works are expected to be completed by the middle of next year.

INBRIEF

Birthing pains herald rail link A YEAR-long shutdown of a busy Footscray bridge is just one of the signs that work has begun on the 7.5-kilometre Footscray to Deer Park section of the multibillion-dollar Regional Rail Link project. Buses replaced trains between Footscray and Watergardens stations in Taylors Lakes over the weekend to allow for works. Extensive changes to the road network, including the closure of Footscray’s Albert Street, are now in place. Federal Infrastructure and Transport Minister Anthony Albanese, visiting the intended site of the relocated West Footscray station last week to officially launch the works, said the project was Melbourne’s first new passenger rail infrastructure since the Glen Waverley line opened in 1930. Mr Albanese conceded that the loss of homes to make way for the new lines had upset the community, but people understood why it had to happen. “We need big projects in this country. That’s what I’m interested in as Infrastructure Minister and I’m very satisfied with the way we’re working with the Victorian government and, indeed, with the management of the Regional Rail Link project.” The Footscray to Deer Park section is being constructed by an alliance of the Regional Rail Link Authority, Metro, V/Line, Thiess, Balfour

A Braybrook man has been charged with a range of offences after drugs, firearms and stolen goods were found at a Braybrook home on Friday. Maribyrnong crime investigation unit detectives raided the Crothers Street house at 7.40am and seized a quantity of drugs and a loaded firearm, along with some allegedly stolen goods including computers and electrical equipment. The 42-year-old man was charged with drug trafficking, handling stolen goods and firearms offences.

Bunnings on the move Construction has begun on a new Bunnings Warehouse Highpoint on the corner of Williamson and Rosamond roads, Maribyrnong. Scheduled to open mid-next year, the $45 million, 17,000-square-metre development will relocate more than 130 workers from the existing Maribyrnong site in Rosamond Road and create more than 135 new jobs, as well as a further 260 during the construction phase. The news comes as British fashion giant GPT Group confirmed it would open Topshop and TopMan stores in Highpoint shopping centre early next year.

Artworks under the hammer A no-reserve art auction fund-raiser will give buyers a chance to pick up work from many of the district’s artists. It will be held at Footscray Community Arts Centre from 6.30-8.30pm on August 23. Artworks range from table tennis tables to greeting cards, painting and photography.

Playwright up for lucrative prize Spotswood playwright Daniel Keene has been shortlisted for Australia’s richest literary prize, the Victorian Prize for Literature. Premier and Arts Minister Ted Baillieu last week announced 21 works shortlisted across five categories, which carry total prizemoney of $225,000. Keene has made the drama shortlist with Boxman, which was performed at If Theatre for the Big West Festival. Boxman is about a man called Ringo who, displaced from his African homeland, finds a new address in ‘‘downtown Footscray’’.

SKY-high hopes well grounded

High hopes: Marney Junge, a SKY High group member, with her three-year-old son Coen in Kingsville. Picture: Michael Copp

Ms Lloyd said the new survey would provide valuable information that they could take to a meeting with Education Minister Martin Dixon in the next couple of months. They also intend to discuss findings from the SKY High secondary college provision report prepared with the Education Department. “The results from the [new] survey will be presented to minister Dixon to help demonstrate the strong support our parents have for public education in this area.” The group has been campaigning for a new high school in the area since 2006. It has taken heart from recent success of the High School for Coburg Group in having the Coburg Senior High School extended to become a years 7-12 school. The new survey will be sent to primary schools, kindergartens and childcare centres for parents to give their comments by August 31. It will also be available on the SKY High website and Facebook.

to the nearest high school. A previous survey found 97 per cent of SKY families would consider sending their child to a local high school and 64 per cent said they definitely would.

A progress update will also be delivered at the SKY High annual general meeting at the Yarraville Club, 135 Stephen Street, at 8pm on August 27.

BY BENJAMIN MILLAR PARENTS pushing for a new high school in Melbourne’s inner-west are gathering the numbers they need to make their proposal a reality. The Seddon, Kingsville, Yarraville (SKY) High working group is launching a community survey to show just how extensive demand is for a new local high school. Group spokeswoman Janine Lloyd says there is already clear evidence of the need for a public high school. SKY High figures show four in five children attending primary schools in Seddon, Kingsville and Yarraville go on to attend a public high school. With more than 2000 children in local primary schools, 1500-plus are forecast to need a local high school. Ms Lloyd said the area had been a secondary education ‘black hole’ since Footscray Yarraville High School was closed by the Kennett government in the early 1990s. “Our students are further from a public, coeducational high school than any other secondary student in Melbourne.” They have to travel at least five kilometres

Unwanted results from ‘rooming’ laws BY MELISSA CUNNINGHAM and BENJAMIN MILLAR SUPPORT workers have welcomed moves to impose on-the-spot fines for rogue rooming house operators, but they warn forcing them to close properties will intensify the cycle of homelessness. From next March, all rooming houses will be bound by minimum standards, such as locks in every bedroom and bathroom, and adequate kitchen amenities and power supplies. Consumer Affairs Victoria says new regulations will mean that failure to meet the standards can be dealt with immediately, rather than only through the courts. Companies operating rooming houses face fines of up to $2800 for each breach. The changes come amid heightened concerns about living conditions in the burgeoning rooming houses of Melbourne’s west. Earlier this year, the Weekly reported an eightfold increase in the number of rooming

houses in the inner-west, including Maribyrnong, Brimbank, Hobsons Bay and Moonee Valley. There are 46 registered rooming houses in Maribyrnong, but the council estimates more than 100 illegal houses are operating throughout the city. In the inner-west, the number of tenants soared from 288 in 2006 to 2669 last year. Norwood Association team leader Brad Wilde said rooming house residents were among society’s most vulnerable people and many had mental health issues. “It’s often a stressful period for these individuals to secure housing and then it’s hard to feel safe in their housing.’’ Mr Wilde said conditions in rooming houses were often extremely poor. He called on the state to waive fines for landlords trying to abide by the law. “There are landlords doing this out of the goodness of their hearts. Rather than close down their houses, the government needs to help them fund improving the standard of living. Otherwise they’re

Picture: Darren Howe contributing to the cycle of homelessness.” In a submission to the government on social housing released last week, the Victorian Council of Social Services noted Victoria continues to experience a housing affordability crisis, with rents having risen faster than the incomes of the most disadvantaged Victorians for over a decade. “Ultimately,’’ it stated, ‘‘the only way to address housing affordability for low-income households is to expand the supply of low-cost housing and increase the resources available to households to secure housing.” Maribyrnong mayor John Cumming said: “Enforcing this legislation is essential to ensure the safety of residents in rooming houses. Overcrowding within them can put the well-being and safety of residents at risk.”

BY BENJAMIN MILLAR THE wheels are turning in Maribyrnong’s cycling revolution as The Cycle Saloon prepares to swing open its doors in Pipemakers Park. The not-for-profit community bicycle workshop on the Maribyrnong River is the brainchild of keen cyclist Glen Mason. It was inspired by a similar volunteer-run operation at Brunswick’s Centre for Education and Research in Environmental Strategies. Mr Mason said the bike workshop contained workstands, a wide range of tools and donated second-hand bicycles and parts. “I was running my own business for the past couple of years, mainly fixing up old bikes, and thought it was something I could take in the not-for-profit direction,” he said. “I saw it as a good opportunity to get involved in the local community.” The Cycle Saloon will provide instructions on building, repairing and servicing bikes. There will also be workshops on specific skills such as building wheels.

Bike station: Glen Mason at the site of The Cycle Saloon. Picture: Martina Gemmola ‘‘There has been a cycling culture developing in the west; there are a lot more people riding in the area,’’ Mr Mason said. He wants to draw upon the industrial history of the area and the park itself and get people ‘‘hands-on’’. Another motivation is reducing the number of old bikes ending up in landfill. The saloon will also be a hub for information on cycling routes such as the nearby Maribyrnong River trail. The saloon, housed in a revamped bluestone factory, will be launched on August 26.

Leadership ladies BY BENJAMIN MILLAR WOMEN in the west shared an insight into life as a leader during a forum at Maribyrnong Town Hall last Wednesday. A panel featured Women’s Health West chief executive Robyn Gregory, Maribyrnong councillor Sarah Carter, African Women’s Sewing Enterprise’s Halima Mohammed, Victoria Immigrant and Refugee Women’s Coalition executive officer Melba Marginson and artist Paola Balla. The panelists discussed the different styles and roles of leadership that women can use to strengthen communities. Ms Gregory spoke of the responsibility to use educational and other privileges to build a more just society. Ms Marginson said moving people towards a goal could involve walking behind or leading from the front, but the important thing was to be a voice representing the voiceless. Ms Mohammed told of how she had starting a sewing group to bring women together and get them talking about their experiences. Through this, she had helped people get into English classes and further education.

United front: (From left) Sarah Carter, Robyn Gregory, Melba Marginson, Paola Balla and Halima Mohammed at the forum. Ms Balla talked of growing up with an Aboriginal and Italian heritage. She said the idea of leadership needed to be re-thought as it could take many different forms. “Love has to be at the heart of leadership.” Cr Carter said true leadership was about empowering others. “It is not about the person, it is about what you can cultivate in others. You need passion and an absence of ego.” The evening also featured local artworks, African dancers and an expo of information about leadership opportunities in the area.

Writes of passage About 350 writers will be involved in this year’s Melbourne Writers’ Festival, which runs for 11 days from August 22. Claire Knox talks to three of them from Melbourne’s west. LICE PUNG’S melodic tone lifts slightly when she recalls a childhood memory of Footscray’s shopping mall, the first of its type in Australia when it opened in 1975. Alice and her grandmother would sit on a bench among the languid junkies, clusters of chatting Vietnamese women and businessmen in ill-fitting suits, observing the concrete madness and waiting for sprawling department store Forges to open. “We’d sit outside, by a fountain, called Dolphins Alive I think, that has never been in operation while I’ve been alive.” Pung, a lawyer, teacher and award-winning author, says idiosyncrasies like the fountain and the mall, and the working class and migrant roots so intrinsic to Footscray have shaped her writing immeasurably. The 31–year-old wooed literary critics, publishers and readers alike with her coming-of-age memoir Unpolished Gem, which scored her the 2007 Newcomer of the Year Award in the Australian Book Industry Awards, following up with Her Father’s Daughter, the poignant tale of her father Kuan’s horrific experiences enduring the Khmer Rouge dictatorship. Pung’s mother was eight months’ pregnant with Alice, her first child, when she and Kuan arrived in Melbourne. Both Cambodian refugees with Chinese heritage, they had fled war-torn Cambodia and spent a year in a stifling Thai refugee camp. Now a writer in residence at Melbourne University’s Janet Clarke Hall, Pung will speak to throngs of children, teenagers and teachers at the festival. Pung says growing up in the west’s bosom meant she perceived its multiculturalism to be the norm. “Before I went to university I didn’t really realise other places were so different. “You grow up thinking the rest of Australia is diverse too - brown, black, white, yellow - but it’s not at all, it’s very Anglo-Saxon, particularly in pop culture representation.

“It really is one of the most interesting areas in Melbourne. The culture changes every decade due to the different waves of migration, Greek and Italian, Vietnamese, African, and Indian. Sometimes people ‘talk’ about multi-culturalism, but in Footscray people just live it. There are African people buying Chinese food, Vietnamese eating Indian, it’s not as segregated. “The west is more diverse than its bad representation and it’s important to move away from the generalisation that it’s grotty. But of course that’s also the drawcard. “I’m glad I wrote Unpolished Gem at the age I did, before I had really left the west and before I learnt about literary place and theory, because if I did know those things the book would have been more contrived and not about family and love and people.” Yarraville writer John Weldon spent his first few years in Australia, after arriving as an English migrant, in a symmetrical brick set of Braybrook commission flats, flanked by factories and weatherboard, working-class homes. He believes the cultural and physical landscape of the west provided him with a sense of dislocation from other parts of the city, peering through a looking glass which provided the perfect writing environment. “As a writer it gives you a great place to start from. If you can observe things and put a little bit of distance between you and your subject it helps you to be clearer.” Growing up as a migrant, Weldon felt he was floating in a grey, murky sea, where he found it hard to identify as English or Australian. “In literature, there is often an idea of the ‘other’ - you know this is us here and there are those over there and there are those who came to our country on boats. Growing up here you’re certainly outside the mainstream. “That certainly helped shape the way I looked at institutions, at being a man, being a migrant, even though there wasn’t a huge cultural difference. “I think a lot of people in the west are constantly in that ‘other’ space, and as a writer or artist that is a huge, huge influence.’’ For Weldon, a tangible symbol of that separation was always the West Gate Bridge, the “idea of having to get over that bridge to get ‘there’.” “Everywhere you turn in Seddon and Yarraville, or from the Williamstown foreshore, you can see Melbourne looming in the distance.’’ A former Fairfax journalist and a lecturer in professional and creative writing at Victoria University, Weldon will launch his latest novel, Spin Cycle, at the Writers’ Festival. “It’s a coming-of-age story and a love story,

INSIDESTORY

If you can observe things and put a little bit of distance between you and your subject it helps you to be clearer. exploring truth and identity. It’s about a man who is about to become a mouse, he’s on the verge of 30, but can he take the next step and grow up or continue to drift.” He says he has written a slew of short stories set in the west. “I mean I have a huge working-class chip on my shoulder. I just can’t shift it,” he concedes with a smirk. “I always wanted to be a writer as a kid, but it just seemed, living in Braybrook, that I may as well have wanted to be an astronaut. I had no idea how I could do it.’’ But Weldon’s flair was recognised and he picked up a column in the Western Times, writing a sportsbased commentary on his surrounds, and later filing opinion pieces for The Age (which he still does) and freelancing as a food critic for the same paper. “Even in my food writing I wrote about the great Vietnamese and Ethiopian places in the western suburbs, which is what they wanted I suppose, that different angle.’’ Murray Middleton stands dreamily in a vast and sparse factory room, watching through the ceiling’s glass windows storm clouds roll in over the city skyline. The building is Kensington’s creative hub the Younghusband, a space Middleton knows intimately, having worked for theatre set design company Scenic Studios, painting sweeping canvas backdrops for Australian Ballet productions like The Nutcracker and Wicked. The 28-year-old Fitzroy writer has worked in Kensington and Flemington for more than eight years now, in the Younghusband building, at independent book store Wayward Books and now as an integration aide at Mount Alexander College. Middleton garnered literary recognition after winning The Age short story competition last year for his melancholic tale of a middle-aged newspaper editor and his drug-addicted sister’s journey through central NSW to a rehabilitation centre. Although much of his writing to date has been set across sweeping rural highways and terrains, he says the grittiness of the inner north-west is now unconsciously seeping into his narratives. Middleton is compiling an anthology of shorts stories, a number of which are set in the west. “My time here has had a huge influence… that (Younghusband) building itself is incredible, both visually and culturally. There are so many creative and eccentric people, and I feel like I’ve explored every nook and cranny of it.’’ For further information on the Melbourne Writers Festival go to www.mwf.com.au

INDA Millard’s personal battle against breast cancer was harrowing enough, yet it was the toll it took on her family that upset her the most. Believing breast cancer didn’t run in her family, the 58-year-old ignored a lump in her breast for several months before diagnosis in 2010. “I regret putting it off when I knew something wasn’t right; I really don’t know why we do such silly things,” she says. Mrs Millard, of Werribee, is one of eight Victorian women who have shared their story for a range of short films produced by BreastScreen Victoria. BreastScreen Victoria CEO Vicki Pridmore says the organisation has also made a fourminute film looking at the mammogram process. “These stories highlight the screening experiences of a woman with a disability, an Aboriginal woman, a regional woman and women who survived breast cancer.” The films were launched at the Sun Theatre in Yarraville last week in the hope of

L

spreading the message that mammograms are an important tool in the fight against breast cancer. The location was chosen to encourage women in the area to take part in screening as participation in the western suburbs of Melbourne is less than 50 per cent. One in nine Australian women is affected by breast cancer and women over 50 are at the highest risk. Mrs Millard had a mastectomy, which stopped the cancer from spreading through her body. She is now recovering well. For more information or to book a mammogram, call 13 20 50. The short films can be viewed at the BreastScreen Victoria website: breastscreen.org.au

WESTERN suburbs politicians are trading barbs over the future of dental services at Footscray’s Western Region Health Centre. The Weekly last week reported that Greens MP Colleen Hartland will implore the need for action to prevent the clinic closing. But Liberal MP Andrew Elsbury said Ms Hartland needed to outline what exactly she wanted the government to fund. ‘‘Ms Hartland continues demanding ‘something’ to be done but doesn’t seem to know what that ‘something’ is.” Mr Elsbury, who chaired a taskforce investigating the health centre’s problems, said it was hypocritical for Labor and the Greens to call for action ‘‘while they sat idle for 11 years’’. ‘‘The dental clinic can’t be fixed by rhetoric,’’ he said. ‘‘What’s needed is sound planning and a business case to support the great work being done by the staff at Western Region Health.” But Ms Hartland said there was a redevelopment plan ready to begin. “All that is needed is the Baillieu government to commit a moderate $9 million to rebuild the clinic and continue to provide quality dental health services in the west,’’ she said. “Mr Elsbury and the Baillieu government have failed to invest in dental health and Victoria’s projected dental waiting list times are set to explode, increasing 30 per cent in one year to an average of 22 months.”

or many Aussies, August 15 may be just another day, but to Pardeep Veerma, owner of Sangam Tandoori Indian Restaurant in Williamstown, it’s Indian Independence Day. And he invites diners to celebrate with him. How better to honour the special day when India became free from Britian’s reign than to enjoy Indian food cooked by Pardeep, with his wife Mona taking care of the hospitality. ‘‘I love cooking something nice for our customers and feel I am doing something good,’’ head chef Pardeep says. ‘‘We have 20 years’ experience running an Indian restaurant, but this year is particularly special as we recently became a finalist in Menulog’s Tasty Takeaway Awards for 2012.’’ The menu includes a tandoori platter — tandoori chicken malai, chicken tikka, kashmiri chicken,

Past with promise of future There is potential to renovate, including a second-storey extension, writes Tegan Forder ovingly maintained, ‘Penagraig’ is just waiting for a few more additions to turn it into the complete package for a family of any size. The lilac grey fretwork, picket fence and neat front garden are charming features of this cute-as-a-button dwelling with plenty of potential. It’s around the corner from Williamstown Road and close to Yarraville and Seddon villages. Owners Richard and Kirsten say the period style of the home, combined with it’s location, make it the perfect choice for buyers wanting the Yarraville village lifestyle. Period features inside can be seen in the ceiling rosettes, oldfashioned light switches, picture rails and leadlight windows. Such features are evident in the two spacious bedrooms. The front room has an original fireplace and beautiful leadlight windows. A leadlight door at the end of the hallway opens to a cosy lounge room with a gas heater in the fireplace.

L

Dinner parties will be a breeze with a designated dining room, with traditional wood panelling, just off the kitchen. The kitchen and adjacent bathroom have both been renovated and are now bright and contemporary spaces. Wood-topped white painted cabinets and a stand-alone cooker are kitchen inclusions, while plenty of room remains for additional appliances. A bath, square-basin vanity unit and towel racks are highlights of the gleaming bathroom. The laundry is quite spacious and there’s a separate toilet at the back of the house. It’s at the back here where new owners can really add their own touch with renovations, subject to council approval. Architect-designed plans for a second-storey extension (STCA) are available to view. The low-maintenance courtyard which catches the northern sun, is concreted and there is a garden shed and established garden boxes waiting to be planted with herbs and flowers.

hile you can move in and enjoy this weatherboard house, there still remains plenty of scope to add value down the track due to its deep block. There are two bedrooms, the main with wide built-in wardrobes. A lounge room has a tapestry fireplace, floorboards and decorative cornices. A recently refurbished kitchen has timber venetians and white appliances. A dining room can be used as an office. The back garden enjoys a north-westerly aspect and there’s an undercover entertainment area.

Footscray flies with flair in derby BY LANCE JENKINSON ALTONA has had some heavy defeats upon its return to the Lacrosse Victoria men’s state league and Saturday’s local derby with Footscray was no different, being pummelled 18-4 at PJ Lynch Reserve. The A’s were competitive in a 2-2 opening period but could not sustain efforts over the course of the game, out-scored 16-2 in the last three quarters. ‘‘It was always going to be a tough game for us,’’ A’s president Maurice Zicman told the Weekly. The A’s could not dampen the visitors’ attacking flair. Chris Plumb and James Lawerson were lethal for the Scray with five goals apiece. Luke Moore joined in the rout with four of his own. The A’s have found the transition to the big league a lot tougher than expected and were on the back foot from the get-go. They had initially secured three imports, but only two would be available when the season arrived, and they also lost three starters from the previous year’s squad. If there is a silver lining, they have unearthed a handful of youngsters who might not have otherwise seen time in the top team. ‘‘It’s given the guys on the fringe a chance to test themselves,’’ Zicman said. ‘‘They’ve actually stepped up.’’ Despite the 1-15 record, the A’s are determined to keep their place among the elite clubs next season. The players were under no obligation to go up this year but wanted to play in the highest league possible, even if that meant the odd thrashing. ‘‘The thing I was proud of most is the young guys in the club putting their hand up and saying, we’ll go up

Choices: Shawn Donahue assesses his options further afield for Altona. and test our mettle against the best,’’ Zicman said. ‘‘The indication I’m getting from the players is they want to stay up again. ‘‘We don’t want to be the only club in the western suburbs not to have a state league team.’’ Meanwhile, Altona will host one of Lacrosse Victoria’s finals days on September 1 at PJ Lynch Reserve. The action starts with junior finals at 9.30am, then with games all the way through the seniors in the after-

noon. Zicman wants to see as many first-time lacrosse fans at the venue as possible. ‘‘It’s a sport that people fall in love with the first time they see it,’’ he said. ‘‘It’s going to be a good showcase for the club and the sport. ‘‘We want to see as many people as possible.’’ Lacrosse Victoria Men’s state league: Camberwell 15 Williamstown 8, Altona 4 Footscray 18

Altona’s onfield class fails to bring the points ALTONA had the lion’s share of possession and more shots, but it counted for nought on the scoreboard. A clinical MCC made the most of limited chances to win 3-1 in the Hockey Victoria women’s state league 1 at the MHS-MCC Hockey Facility in South Yarra last Saturday. The A’s had the look of team eager to complete the double over MCC after a win in round seven, and they held the early momentum with ball movement that was pleasing to the eye. Their dominance was thanks largely to a master class from homegrown star

Danielle Schubach, who controlled the tempo of the game on her stick. Import Kate Gillis, a Canadian international, was just as impressive in her last game for the club. For all the A’s’ control in general play, they had little to show for it where it counted most. ‘‘We are working very hard trying to play in a certain way,’’ said A’s coach Marc Richardson. ‘‘When that doesn’t translate into a positive result it’s obviously disappointing . ‘‘We had plenty of chances to score

and will keep working on that aspect of our game.’’ The A’s did eventually find a way to goal through Tegan Purser, but the horse had already bolted. They will play their last home game of the year on Saturday against Doncaster. Footscray remains in the hunt for a finals berth after a 3-1 victory over Camberwell at McIvor Reserve. Amy Turnbull fired in a double for the Bulldogs to take her season tally to nine, with a third goal scored by Emma Robinson.

The Bulldogs will host a penultimate round blockbuster against Essendon on Saturday with fourth spot up for grabs. In men’s state league 1, Footscray was beaten mercilessly 10-1 by Camberwell, while Altona had a 1-1 draw with MCC after a Chris Coleman goal. — Lance Jenkinson

Jarry shines on Olympic stage as Opals bring back bronze ALTONA Gators-grown forward Rachel Jarry scored eight points and grabbed three rebounds in the Australian Opals’ successful bronze medal playoff against Russia at the London Games last Saturday. The Opals won 83-74 on the back of starring roles from forward Lauren Jackson (25 points) and retiring point guard Kristi Harrower (21). It was the Opals’ fifth consecutive medal at the Olympic tournament. [ 52 ] WEEKLY – YOUR COMMUNITY VOICE

Jarry, 20, averaged 4.2 points, 2.8 rebounds and 0.9 assists over the tournament. The Bulleen Boomers star’s best game was in the semi-final loss to a powerhouse USA, which hasn’t been beaten since Barcelona in 1992. Jarry played with a real vigour to finish with five points, six rebounds and five assists. While the Opals did their utmost, they fell short to the eventual gold medal winner by 13 points.

August 15, 2012

Meanwhile, Seddon-trained wrestler Farzad Tarash had a blink-and-you-miss-it Olympics campaign. Australia’s only wrestling competitor was beaten 3-0 5-0 in just four minutes by North Korea’s Jong Myong Ri in the 60-kilogram freestyle event. Tarash told reporters after the bout that it was a ‘‘dream come true’’ to represent Australia at the Olympics and that the top-level experience would be invaluable for the rest of his career.

Geelong cyclists in fine form GEELONG Cycling Club took revenge on Footscray CC with a dominating 35-22 win in the sixth annual Challenge Cup of Cycling in Geelong on Saturday. The tally now stands at three wins apiece in the head-to-head battle in what is fast becoming one of the hotly contested races on the western suburbs cycling calendar. A chilly southerly wind and threatening rain made racing a challenge. The A grade race was dominated by Geelong club champion Tom Paton. With a killer climb and a stomach-churning descent to contend with each lap, it was not long before the peloton was broken up, with many riders heading for the showers early. In the end, it was Paton who took the long, drawn-out sprint from a gallant Chris Zucchet, with Nick Squillari coming through for third. In the B grade race, a strong bunch of 20 riders was thinned out to six by the end of the first lap. The insane pace resulted in B grade riders ranging up behind A grade for a while, with Matt Castles charging up the hills as if he was on an electric bike to take the win from the inform Chris Munro and the equally strong Mark Scouller. C grade winner Ryan Burt led home a Geelong domination of the podium, taking the sprint from fellow club members Rylan Bird and David Rhodes, while D grade gave Footscray some solace when 17-year-old Stephen Liley won from Peter Bloink and Phil Galea.

Challenge Cup A grade: Tom Paton (G), Chris Zucchet (F), Nick Squillari (G), Steven DelGallo (G), Jason Costin (F). B grade: Matt Castles (G), Chris Munro (F), Mark Scouller (F), Sam Lane (Pt F), Tony Ross (G). C grade: Ryan Burt (G), Rylan Bird (G), David Rhodes (G), Zac Dynes (G), Michael Dam (F). D grade: Stephen Liley (F), Peter Bloink (F), Phil Galea (G).

Shock turns into delight

Diving effort: Williamstown youngster Jack Charleston launches in to tackle Northern Blues ball winner Brent Bransgrove.

Confident Gulls in finals action BY LANCE JENKINSON WILLIAMSTOWN sealed its berth in the finals with a determined 24-point win over Northern Blues in the Victorian Football League at a soggy Burbank Oval on Saturday. The message to the Seagulls players heading into the game was clear: win the stoppages, win the game. ‘‘The Northern Blues are the No. 1 stoppage side and that was always going to be the key,’’ Seagulls assistant coach Andrew Mirams told the Weekly. ‘‘The first quarter we came out kicking into a three to four-goal wind, but we smashed them in the stoppages and that was important.’’ It was a huge win in the context of the season for the Seagulls, as it means they can’t be dislodged from the top eight in the last two weeks. It also adds to the team’s ever-growing confidence that it can make a rare run to the flag from the bottom half of the eight. ‘‘We’re in it to win it,’’ Mirams said. ‘‘We think we’ve got a realistic chance if we keep playing the way we have been.’’ The depth of talent at the Seagulls has been crucial. They have been able to absorb the long injury list sustained by AFL affiliate Western Bulldogs because of the strength of their undefeated development squad team. ‘‘We don’t care who we have playing as long as when they pull on the jumper they play the style that we play and do the role we ask of them,’’

SCOREBOARD VFL Seniors: Williamstown 9.12 (66) d Northern Blues 6.6 (42). Williamstown — Goals: P. Veszpremi 2, L. Jones, B. Goodes, E. Carr, D. Conway, T. Hill, S. McCallum, A. Cordy. Best: A. Cordy, E. Wood, B. Jolley, J. Wall, B. Goodes, P. Veszpremi. Development: Williamstown 13.11 (89) d Northern Blues 11.12 (78). Williamstown — Goals: J. Mead 3, A. Anastasio 2, S. Wyatt 2, D. Bugeja 2, M. Lyons, N. Giles, J. Wallace, J. Polizzi. Best: D. Bugeja, S. Critchley, J. Walker, A. Anastasio, S. Wyatt, D. Hoghton.

Collision course: Northern Blues defender Marcus Davies and Williamstown forward Tom Hill have eyes only for the ball. Pictures: Darren Howe Mirams said. The Seagulls flew home in a lowscoring game with a four goals to one last quarter. The midfield group of captain Ben Jolley, Brett Goodes and Ed Carr, along with youngsters Stephen McCallum, Michael Fogarty and

Kwame McHarg, worked tirelessly to lead their side to victory. Youngster Ayce Cordy relished the freedom of playing as the Seagulls No. 1 ruckman and was named best-on-ground for his influence at the stoppages. ‘‘He was super,’’ Mirams said. Patrick Veszpremi was the only multiple goalkicker for the Seagulls with two. Easton Wood, playing in his first VFL game for the year, and James Wall, were named in the best. Youngsters Jack Charleston, Stephen Witkowski, Anton Woods and Nick Sing showed their improvement. However, Mirams said it would be unfair to single out individuals after such a good win. The Seagulls will be out to make it five straight wins when they host Sandringham Zebras in the penultimate round at Burbank Oval on Saturday.

WILLIAMSTOWN CYMS prevailed in a game of two halves over St John’s by a too-close-forcomfort 14 points in the Victorian Amateur Football Association division 1 at Fearon Reserve on Saturday. CYs had to beat the bottom-of-the-ladder Saints to keep their survival hopes alive, but the outlook was grim when they stared a 43-point deficit in the face at the end of an insipid first half. ‘‘We were in a bit of trouble at half-time,’’ CYs coach Ian Rickman said. ‘‘A few stern words were told and we came out a different side after the break.’’ CYs were desperately off-colour in the opening half. They suffered a massive letdown after a huge build-up to a game that would have major consequences if they failed to get up. Rickman was not accepting of what his side served up attitude-wise in the first half and he let them know about it. ‘‘To be six goals down in a crucial game like that was unforgivable,’’ he said. ‘‘St John’s came to play, took it right up to us and they wanted it more. A few of our boys might have thought they could just turn up and win.’’ CYs came out after the long break refocused and edged to within 18 points at the last change on the back of a four goals to two third quarter. But there was still plenty of work to be done in the last term. ‘‘It was backs to the wall stuff,’’ Rickman said. ‘‘I called on a special effort from our backline. I thought if we could keep them goalless in the last quarter we could win.’’ The CYs defence stood up big time and answered the call by restricting St John’s to a mere three points in the final 30 minutes. The whole back six was watertight, led by Shannon McAlpine, Nick Walsh and Phillip Johnson. McAlpine came to the fore when the game was on the line and must have repelled at least six attacks with his inate ability to read the play in the dying minutes. There was only one match-winner and he was nowhere near the defensive 50. Josh Vanderloo showed why he is one of the best focal points in the competition with eight goals. The mid-sized forward has the all-round package: a strong pair of hands, a precision kicking boot, speed off the mark and ability to out-smart any defender. ‘‘It was a phenomenal effort from him to kick 8.1,’’ Rickman said. CYs have one last chance to move out of the relegation zone for the first time since round nine when they host third-last Glen Eira at Fearon Reserve on Saturday. ‘‘If we can’t win this one, it’s more than likely going to end in relegation for us,’’ Rickman conceded. — Lance Jenkinson VAFA scoreboard Division 1: Williamstown CYMS 15.11 (101) d St John’s 13.9 (87)

One more chance for Roosters

Magic get back to true form BY LANCE JENKINSON

Scoreboard

ALTONA Magic comprehensively outplayed Western Suburbs for a 2-1 road win at Ralph Reserve in the Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 1 on Saturday. The Magic were stinging after the previous week’s injury-time loss to league leader Port Melbourne Sharks and were hell-bent on a focused 90-minute showing after taking their eyes off the ball the game before. Magic coach John Markovski said it was a more thorough and professional performance this time around. ‘‘I don’t think we played to our full potential the week before against Port Melbourne,’’ he said. ‘‘We were a little bit flat. This week was much better. We were the better side by far and could’ve scored more.’’ The Magic were breathing a little uneasy at half-time with scores locked at nil-all. They had done the bulk of the attacking and had nothing to show for their hard work on the

scoreboard. The second half saw more of the same, but attacking midfielder Rini Muriqi found the back of the net to give the visitors the lead, finishing off a nicely worked team goal from the back. In the space of 10 minutes, the Magic doubled their lead in a similar fashion, with striker Juso Julardzija scoring on the back of a sound team build-up. Suburbs halved the deficit from the penalty spot through Simon Kelly with 15

minutes to go, but the Magic would not be denied by a late goal. They got to celebrate a vital three points that keeps them in arm’s reach of the promotion places. ‘‘It’s always good to win and especially at their ground,’’ Markovski said. The midfield was the cornerstone of the Magic’s victory. Muriqi, Melvin Becket, Robbie Naumovski and Benjamin Vahid provided a constant flow of ball to the strikers. Such was their command, goalkeeper Stefaan Sardelic was hardly called into action apart from a penalty which squeezed under his body. The Magic have the luxury of facing winless and goal leaking bottom side Springvale White Eagles at Paisley Park Soccer Complex on Saturday, but Markovski fired a warning to his side. ‘‘Anything can happen if you take them lightly,’’ he said. ‘‘We’ve got to go out and put the effort in for 90 minutes and the rewards will come.’’

Gators take cliffhanger to set up grand final berth ALTONA Gators have advanced to the Victorian Basketball League Big V women’s youth league 2 grand final with a cliffhanger 48-47 win over Craigieburn Eagles. The decisive game two of a best-of-three semifinal series played out at the Altona Sports Centre on Saturday night. One second on the clock, one free throw to be made and ice cool co-captain Ashleigh Richardson at the line was just the tonic for the Gators to clinch a 2-0 series win. Richardson told the Weekly it was important she landed the winning basket from the free throw line to avoid overtime and a potential return to the court less than 24 hours later. ‘‘I had to make one,’’ she said. ‘‘We were all so [ 54 ] WEEKLY – YOUR COMMUNITY VOICE

exhausted. We knew we had to win it on the night. No one wants to have to back up on Sunday again.’’ The Gators’ series win was built on a sound team effort. Richardson says it is what makes the Gators unpredictable. ‘‘It’s all 12,’’ she said. ‘‘Our whole team is talented. We work hard and we all get along. Anyone can step up.’’ It was Richardson’s turn on this night and she was happy to deliver for her team. Ashley Patterson, the other co-captain, led from the front with a team-high 11 points to go with six rebounds. Jenna Conroy was a defensive powerhouse with 10 rebounds, five steals and two blocks.

Sally Cameron was also busy with 10 rebounds, four assists and three steals. The Randy Shanklin-coached Gators will meet Hawthorn in a best-of-three grand final series. They will visit Boroondara Sports Complex for game one on Saturday night. Game two and, if required, three will swing back to the Altona Sports Centre the following weekend.

ALTONA Roosters have one last hurdle to overcome to seal a berth in the Victorian Rugby League first grade finals. The Roosters will claim the fourth and last spot with victory over Waverley-Oakleigh Panthers on the road in Sunday’s last round. If they lose, it muddies the waters somewhat, as they will be rely on lowly Doveton Steelers to upset fifth-placed Craigieburn Phoenix to advance. Roosters player-coach Jason Warr told the Weekly his team was treating the game as cutthroat. ‘‘It’s our final,’’ he said. ‘‘For us, every game is a grand final from now on. It’s do or die all the way through.’’ The Roosters are in this predicament for two reasons. They had an incredibly tough adjustment to life with a fresh squad of players, losing their opening three games of the season. And they had a chance to lock down a

‘For us, every game is a grand final from now on. It’s do or die all the way through.’ — Jason Warr finals spot on Saturday but left the door open for the Phoenix with a 24-14 loss to that side at Hothlyn Reserve. Warr is proud of what his Roosters-intransition have managed to achieve with a new squad after the defection of seven players, including state representatives, at the end of last season. They have won seven of their past 10 matches to stay in the hunt for the finals. ‘‘It’s been a big transition year,’’ he said. ‘‘There’s been a bit of shuffling around and a lot of new guys. ‘‘The harmony is there and the boys have all put the work in. ‘‘To come back from that is testament to the boys and the culture at the club.’’ Warr and fellow co-coach Mike Hurinui have formed a strong halves combination for the Roosters. Their leadership on the park has been a guiding light for the squad’s younger members. Hurinui has set the example with his ‘‘old school’’ style of play. ‘‘He just goes hard all the time,’’ Warr said. ‘‘One of those blokes that never gives up.’’ Aiden Hema, Bradley Potae and Ben James are of a similar ilk. The hard-running back rowers will have to be at their best if the Roosters are to achieve their finals goal. — Lance Jenkinson VRL First grade: Craigieburn Phoenix 24 d Altona Roosters 14

Bulldogs’ Kaifa carves niche in new home BY LANCE JENKINSON FOOTSCRAY rising star Josh Kaifa has a whatever-it-takes mentality in his drive to become a professional rugby union player. The 20-year-old made a brave decision 18 months ago to leave his native Auckland and settle in Melbourne for better opportunities in the game. Kaifa saw a clearer path to the top than the dog-eat-dog system for youths back in New Zealand. ‘‘Back in Auckland, you’re just another rugby player,’’ he said. ‘‘Moving here, I’m getting more of

an opportunity. With the Rebels starting up, I saw it as a good opportunity to make a name for myself.’’ The talented flanker has not regretted the move for one minute. He’s turned heads from the moment he set foot on Henry Turner Reserve. Kaifa is a permanent fixture in the Footscray first team in the Premier 1 Dewar Shield, which is on the verge of playing in the finals. And he recently captained Victoria to an unexpected title at the under-20 interstate carnival. Kaifa’s team blew away its muchfancied rivals in all three matches,

including a 42-5 drubbing of Queensland Country in the final. ‘‘They [Victoria] usually don’t do well in this competition,’’ Kaifa said. ‘‘The scores we won by were quite overwhelming.’’ Kaifa said Victoria was given little respect before it arrived on the Gold Coast for the tournament. But it certainly departed with a burgeoning reputation as a state to watch. ‘‘They saw that we had come from down south and thought we couldn’t play the game. They looked down on us. It just shows what we can do.’’ Kaifa has rugby in the bloodline. He

is a cousin of Wallabies international Tatafu Polota-Nau. ‘‘It just clicked for me that I wanted to be a professional rugby player when I met him,’’ Kaifa said. Meanwhile, Footscray’s hopes of a double chance in the top-tier Dewar Shield took a blow with a 14-11 loss to Harlequins on Saturday.

Woodsmen onballers cut down Warriors BY LANCE JENKINSON

SCOREBOARD

SPOTSWOOD has earned a reputation as one of the premier contested ball sides in the Western Region Football League division 1. When the Woodsmen arrived to wet and muddy conditions for their penultimate round clash with Hoppers Crossing at Hogans Road Oval on Saturday, they were licking their lips with anticipation of a good-old-fashioned slog. Woodsmen player-coach Chris O’Keefe told the Weekly that his onball brigade, led by captain Tom Langlands, Dylan Ayton and mobile ruckman Ben Perry, thrived at the stoppages to orchestrate a workman-like 48-point win. ‘‘It was pretty tough out there,’’ O’Keefe, another onballer, said. ‘‘It was wet and slippery, and as you would expect from a game against Hoppers Crossing, it was a hot ball and a fierce contest. ‘‘We made winning the contested ball first and foremost in our minds and we did that.’’ The Woodsmen burst out of the blocks like a certain Jamaican in a 100-metre dash. They opened up a 27-point quarter-time lead and it would prove unassailable in the conditions. The green and golds were outstanding at applying forward pressure. Christian Elliott, Will Langlands, Ben Pope, Torin Baker and Chase Morgan were constantly chasing and harassing the Warriors defence into

Where to now?: Chase Morgan has to weave through traffic for Spotswood. errors and ensuring the ball spent the majority of time in their forward half. ‘‘All those small forwards were working super hard,’’ O’Keefe said. The only blot on the Woodsmen copybook was their errant kicking for goal. Eleven goals was all they had to show from 26 scoring shots.

Perry, who bucked the trend with a team-best three goals, was a standout for the Woodsmen in all departments. The former basketballer has come on in leaps and bounds since his arrival from Ainslie in the AFL Canberra competition and he showed against a finals opposition that he could be an

The Eagles swooped on the minor premiership with their unbeaten record still in tact. They won their 16th straight game in a 170-point annihilation of local

rivals West Footscray at Yarraville Oval on Saturday. For their scintillating season, the Eagles get the benefit of a rest in week one of the finals this weekend, and have a double chance up their sleeve.

X-factor for the Woodsmen in September. Not only did Perry win his fair share of hit outs to advantage, his tireless coverage of the ground set the tone for his teammates. The Woodsmen are still a slim chance of snatching the minor premiership from under the noses of ladder-leader Altona Vikings. The Vikings lost for just the second time when they travelled to Deer Park on Saturday, leaving both sides on equal points heading into the final round. The Woodsmen will be heavily favoured to beat North Footscray at McLean Reserve this Saturday, putting a bit of pressure on the Vikings.
