Last ‘link’ to free up Sunbury traffic

BY TARA MURRAY WORK on the long-awaited extension of Elizabeth Drive to Vineyard Road in Sunbury is expected to start next year, with Hume Council approving the Rosenthal estate development.

At a meeting last Monday, councillors approved plans for the estate, which will include 1300 houses.

The development, at 100 Vineyard Road, has been in the works for more than 10 years.

The extension of Elizabeth Drive is a key part of the development and will allow many residents to bypass Sunbury’s town centre when entering and exiting the town’s outskirts.

The estate will include a neighbourhood activity centre including a supermarket, shops, health and childcare centres.

Cr Jack Ogilvie said that while many developments like this one caused more problems, the project would benefit Sunbury. ‘‘This is a major project for Sunbury and has been on the go for 10 years, [but the road extension] has been a lot longer than that. ‘‘There’s been a plan to put Elizabeth Drive through to Vineyard Road since the 1960s. It will take pressure off other parts of Sunbury, especially the Mitchells Lane and Vineyard Road intersection, which we know is a bad intersection. It’ll also take pressure

off Horne Street and Gap Road.’’ He said the council had built time constraints into the agreement to prevent a similar situation to Jacksons Hill estate, where the viaduct crossing is still to be built. The final stage of the Elizabeth Drive extension is to be completed by June 1 2018 or before the 650th lot is built.

Cr Ann Potter said this would provide the missing link in the town.

She said there had been some objections when the initial plans had been made public. ‘‘If you look at a map of the development plan, you can see the Kingsley estate, which

is in the middle of this development. ‘‘They need exits out of it and there are also missing links coming from the Ashfield estate on to the new Elizabeth Drive [which will be built].’’ Urban Design and Management director Tom Milinkovic, who is managing the project, said it had been well received by the council and residents. ‘‘The Rosenthal development is seen as the missing link for Sunbury, with a number of major road and pedestrian links being provided.

This will ease the traffic burden on Sunbury roads. ‘‘The release of the first

% &' (&

stages is expected mid-2013, with construction expected to start later in the year.’’ Mr Milinkovic said a planning permit application had been submitted to the council last week for the southern precinct of the estate.

Work on the Vineyard Road and Elizabeth Drive connection is already under construction as part of Sunbury Business Park, which Urban Design and Management is also looking after.

Sunbury Residents Association president Bernie O’Farrell said the Elizabeth Drive extension had been long planned for. ‘‘The proposed extension will be welcomed to provide

A Gisborne woman’s car, travelling north towards Monegeetta, also crashed into the victim’s vehicle. The drivers of the second car and semi-trailer were taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital with injuries.

performances, stilt walkers, colouring competitions and photo exhibitions. ‘‘We’re starting to make arrangements for the spudfest,’’ Mr White said. ‘‘I’m looking forward to it. ‘‘It’s going to be the biggest festival we’ve ever had. There will be growers with up to five varieties to sell on that day.’’

Mr White, a third-generation potato farmer, eats spuds about twice a day.

But he grows and eats only his favourite

varieties. ‘‘I never get sick of them. There’s more than 50 varieties of potatoes, but I only grow our favourites. Pontiac, Dutch creams and nicola are beautiful for mash. ‘‘I don’t have any secret recipes. I just grow the silly things.’’

The Great Trentham Spudfest is on May 18 at Quarry Reserve. More details: trentham spudfest.org.au

HUME Council has slammed the state government’s decision to pass on costs over roadside weeds and pests.

At a council meeting last Monday, councillors voiced their disappointment at the state government’s move to pass on responsibility and additional costs for managing weeds and pests onto Victorian councils.

At present, councils and the government share the costs. Under the new plans, Hume Council will have to spend $125,000 a year to manage 462 kilometres of rural municipal roadsides. ‘‘There has been discussion over many years over who should be responsible for such works,’’

POTATO farmers in the Macedon Ranges are digging underground to find their dirt-caked treasure.

Trentham potato grower Bernie White has started his yearly harvest, but says this year’s crop is not as bountiful as before. ‘‘It hasn’t been great,’’ he said. ‘‘Prices are reasonable, but the crops are down on last year’s.’’

He reckons the yield has decreased about 30 per cent on the previous year. ‘‘We can blame it on the dry, harsh January that we had. Rain would help the market, but it won’t help the crops now.’’

The harvest is under way and will continue until October. The first variety picked is the pontiac, then the Dutch cream and the nicola.

The Coliban variety is harvested later.

So far Mr White has packed about 2000 bags.

They sell at farmers’ markets throughout the shire and at next month’s Great Trentham Spudfest.

The festival is now in its sixth year and is a celebration of the potato-growing heritage of the town. It transforms Trentham into a spud-hub.

Growers will sell their potato stocks, there will be market stalls, puppet-making workshops and

A 46-year-old Sunbury woman has died after her motorbike collided with a car in Clarkefield on Sunday. Police have been told two motorcyclists were travelling towards Sunbury on the Lancefield Road, near Bolinda Bridge when the incident happened just before 2pm. The driver and a passenger in the car suffered minor injuries.

Forget smelly septics or chemical treatments.

Experience the benefits of a natural system using exciting technology.

Cr Drew Jessop said. ‘‘The council in partnership with the state government over considerable period of time have shared the responsibility and I think it has been a fair share of the responsibility. ‘‘The state government has gone off and done a consultation and study and made legislation changes to put the cost solely and directly onto councils. ‘‘Much of the issues are not caused by council but we are the ones now forking out the money.’’

Under the new plan, the council will have to implement a roadside weeds and pests management plan.

‘‘We have to do some research into it. We do not currently invest in roadside rabbit control and, under this, we would now have to.’’

Cr Jack Medcraft called on the Municipal Association of Victoria to support the councils on this issue. ‘‘It doesn’t matter which government is in power, they all seem to shift costs to councils because it’s an easy thing to do. ‘‘I think it’s about time and I really hope the MAV takes this issue up and belts the living daylights out of the minister and says it’s not going to be tolerated. We are not going to be there shooting bunnies to keep the ministers happy.’’

Society slugged with double rent

BY ANGELA VALENTE THE rent that the Malmsbury Historical Society pays for the use of the mechanics’ institute has doubled to $1040 a year, leaving the group unsure if it can keep up its payments.

The society, which formed in 1987 after the town of Malmsbury’s 150th anniversary, has occupied the front room of the mechanics’ institute.

The building is owned by Macedon Ranges Council and controlled by the Malmsbury Advance Association.

The society claims the MAA doubled its yearly rent — from $520 to $1040 — without consulting the society’s members.

Society secretary Ian Thomas said the rent had quadrupled in seven years. ‘‘We cannot afford this cost, which represents one-quarter of the society’s annual income,’’ he said. ‘‘The society is a volunteer, non-profit community organisation dedicated to providing community services.’’

The group raises its funds through donations, member subscriptions of its newsletter, research services and the sale of its own publications.

‘‘We cannot afford this cost, which represents one quarter of the society’s annual income.’’

— Ian Thomas Last year the council developed a policy, which has yet to be finalised, on usage and rent for its properties occupied by non-profit organisations.

Mr Thomas wants the council to step in and align the MAA’s rental charge with the council policy. ‘‘We’re just not satisfied that we’re being billed for our fair share. ‘‘We don’t have a say in how the building is run. The MAA makes all the decisions.’’

Council officers met members of the MAA last week. The council’s cultural development team leader Robyn Till said it was aware of the society’s concerns and that it ‘‘should not be paying any more than any other historical society in the shire’’. She said discussions would continue with all the parties ‘‘to achieve a suitable outcome’’.

He said the council should start looking at the reasons for the crashes. ‘‘I think . . . a lot has to do with the condition of that road. It’s our wish to have the Bulla bypass as the first part of the Outer Metropolitan Ring Road, which will take people off this road.’’

Cr Ogilvie said the road infrastructure wasn’t up to scratch. ‘‘Bulla Hill isn’t suitable any more for the type of vehicles and the amount of traffic using it. ‘‘It’s very dangerous and there is only one lane from the airport through to Wildwood Road.

‘‘Let’s get the facts and figures and it will help our case to do something about that road.’’

Cr Jack Medcraft agreed. ‘‘The sad thing about roads is it takes fatalities for it to get noticed, before they do anything.’’

He said barring trucks from the Bulla Hill and fixing vegetation at Oaklands Junction would help prevent some accidents. ‘‘Why VicRoads hasn’t cleaned up the vegetation at Oaklands Junction? I dare say it can have some bearing on accidents as people can’t see.’’

HUME councillors are concerned at the growing number of crashes on Sunbury Road.

Cr Jack Ogilvie raised the issue at last Monday’s council meeting, calling on council officers to compile a report on the number of accidents on the road between Lancefield Road and Tullamarine Airport in the past five years.

The request follows the deaths of two women, an 83-year-old from Sunbury and a 62-year-old

from Craigieburn, on Sunbury Road, Bulla, on April 12.

Police are still investigating reports that one of the vehicles involved in the crash had been travelling on the wrong side of the road.

Cr Ogilvie said: ‘‘There has been a spate of accidents on this road lately that has absolutely shocked a lot of people. ‘‘I could be wrong, but I would say this would be the worst road in the whole of the city of Hume besides the major roads like Sydney Road and the freeways.’’

Homestead owners granted new permit

BY TARA MURRAY THE battle to subdivide Emu Bottom Homestead in Sunbury continues, with Hume Council issuing a new permit to the owners.

As reported by the Weekly, the owners submitted an application to the council to have the 26-hectare property subdivided into three parts — the homestead and two one-hectare blocks.

The permit was granted by the council at a meeting last week, but any plans to subdivide the property need to be approved by Heritage Victoria.

On January 10, Heritage Victoria denied approval for the revised plans.

In 2008, the council issued a permit for the property to be subdivided into six lots — five one-hectare blocks and the homestead, which Heritage Victoria also approved.

But in 2009, the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal overturned the council’s decision, granting the applicants a permit for only three one-hectare blocks and the homestead.

The owners, Hedley and Janet Elliott, who

Rock on: Sabrina Parrini prepares for her charity run.

A rock-solid effort for charity run ROMSEY’S Sabrina Parrini likes to keep fit by taking part in fun runs, but there’s a serious goal in mind when she puts on her sneakers on Saturday.

Ms Parrini will run around Hanging Rock, covering five kilometres in Run the Rock, a fund-raiser for the Cancer Council. ‘‘One of the reasons is that it’s good for my health, but I also love how this one is local and, most importantly, it’s supporting the Cancer Council.’’ Ms Parrini’s aunt Elma died of breast cancer in 1998. ‘‘She was diagnosed with breast cancer

while she was pregnant with my cousin. My cousin was three years old when she passed away.’’ Ms Parrini, 34, will run with her husband Anthony Glatzel and hopes to raise $500.

She has taken part in three fun runs this year and has five more planned, including a second go at the Eureka Climb, making it up 88 floors of the Eureka Tower building.

To register for the run, visit starttofinish.com.au or and to donate, go to everydayhero.com.au/sabrina_parrini — Angela Valente

bought the property in 1968, are appealing Heritage Victoria’s decision.

Addressing the council meeting on behalf of the Elliotts, consultant Keith Altmann said some of the money from the sale would go towards the long-term maintenance of the property. ‘‘While some may see the subdivision as another development, this is an opportunity to maintain a key part of a heritage building, where I’d say far too many fall into disrepair.’’ Sunbury resident Trevor Dance, who spoke against the proposal at the meeting, questioned why the council report had parts of the property not included in the new application. He said it shouldn’t have gone before the council until the matter had been resolved by Heritage Victoria.

Residents would now have to appeal the case to VCAT because of the council’s decision, he said.

Cr Jack Ogilvie said the ultimate decision over the subdivision was out of the council’s hands. ‘‘We have a role and that role is as a statutory requirement. It’s one of those subjected to a Heritage Victoria appeal and what will really happen in this application will be determined by them.’’

WHAT’S ON WHERE

BY TARA MURRAY

Both men say the RSL and Anzac Day are important to keep memories alive. ‘‘It was all done [first] to commemorate the First World War and they are all dead now, so we must keep the memory going,’’ Mr Mundy said.

Mr Rose added: ‘‘The people who fought in Afghanistan are now coming on board [at the RSL] and we have a couple of young members here. ‘‘The community really supports us.’’

MOUNT MACEDON: At 6am, the region’s largest service at the memorial cross on Mount Macedon will start. Free shuttle buses to the service will pick up residents in Lancefield, Romsey, Riddells Creek, Gisborne, Macedon, Hesket-Kerrie and Woodend. Residents should arrive at 5.30am with warm clothes and a torch.

Scout groups will provide a barbecue breakfast after the service for a gold coin donation. Bus bookings and times: call Reg Till 0427 187 836 or 5427 3122.

KYNETON: A 6am service at the cenotaph at the corner of Mollison and High streets will be followed by breakfast at the RSL clubrooms at 37 Mollison Street for a gold coin donation. At 9.30am a march will assemble in Mollison Street between Yaldwyn and Hutton streets and will step off at 9.45am. It will finish at the cenotaph at 10am, when a service will start.

TRENTHAM: A 6am service at the cenotaph, corner of High and Market streets, will be followed by a cooked breakfast at the CFA shed in Market Street. At 11.15am a march will start at the town square and progress to the cenotaph where a ceremony will take place. Refreshments follow at the Trentham Neighbourhood Centre.

GISBORNE: A service will be held at the war memorial in Howey Reserve at 10.30am.

ROMSEY: A march will start at 8.30am in Main Street opposite the Romsey Hub and will finish at the cenotaph where a service will begin.

WOODEND: An 11.30am march will step off at High Street near Brooke Street and continue to the RSL in Anslow Street where a service will start.

SUNBURY: A march will start at 10am at the railway station and will finish at the cenotaph at the Sunbury RSL in Stawell Street for a service.

IT’S a Wednesday afternoon and the Sunbury RSL is full of members having a chat and drink.

Many have spent the morning selling Anzac Day badges; others have come along just for the company and a good time.

Come Anzac Day, the 200-plus members of the Sunbury branch will join together as one to remember those who have served in the armed forces.

Many will march in Sunbury on Thursday morning before a service at the cenotaph. Others, like Peter Mundy and Geoff Rose, will march through Melbourne to the Shrine.

Mr Mundy was sent to Vietnam after being conscripted. ‘‘I did two years National Service and spent 12 months in Vietnam. My time was spent with army aviation, which did all the reconnaissance work. ‘‘They go out and look at what is going on and then correlate all that information, then get ideas of the enemy’s movements.’’

Mr Mundy left the army after his two-year term but admits he’s ‘‘not sure that is the best move I ever made.’’

Mr Rose also went to Vietnam, with the

INSIDESTORY

cket The clock’s ticking for four-time Olympian Kristi Harrower, Sarah Harris reports, as the plucky point guard prepares to call time on her sporting career.

ad punters seen Kristi Harrower hobbling down the hallway of her Keilor home last month before the Women’s National Basketball League championship, the odds of the Bendigo Spirit winning the title would have blown out.

But on that crucial match morning Harrower woke crippled, just as she had for half the season.

“It got to the stage where I had to put my shoes on straight away in the morning because I couldn’t walk without my orthotics. My Achilles were that painful,’’ she reveals. ’’Even to walk down that little step in the hall hurt so much.”

For the latter part of the season, the veteran pocket-rocket could hardly train.

“They were just trying to save me for the games,” she says matter-of-factly.

Medical professionals might have questioned whether she should have been allowed on court at all, but when she sets her mind nothing stops Harrower – fierce determination being the hallmark of a stellar career that’s included four Olympic medals, junior and senior world championship gold, and now two WNBL titles.

“I can play through pain. Once I step over that line I will play with that pain. Yeah, you feel it, but it’s like, you know what, let’s just get on with the job and get it done.”

Harrower has always defied the odds and often the prevailing logic. After tearing her anterior cruciate ligament in 2001 her surgeon predicted she wouldn’t be able to play past the age of 29.

But last year she lined up for Australia for her fourth Olympics – ever the shortest and, then at 37, also the oldest member of the Opals, silencing any doubters with a 21-point contribution to the Opals’ 83-74 bronze medal win over Russia.

Harrower has never allowed her height – a mere 162cm or 5ft4in – to handicap her, walking tall even in America, a land of giants where 196cm (6ft5in) players are “bred everyday”. It was with her first WNBA team, the Phoenix Mercury, that she earned the nickname Shrimpy Shrimp.

But as she confides: “I never feel short when I am on

H

court – never. Of course when I see myself in a photo standing next to all the girls then I realise, hey I’m short. I think it’s just that I have so much determination when I step over that white line – it doesn’t matter.”

Harrower’s willingness to take it up to bigger players extends off court. It’s one of the reasons she refused to swap the No.10 jersey she wore for her whole Australian career when it was proposed the numbers should ascend in height order.

As a member of the players’ union she has not always endeared herself to Basketball Australia by pointing out, for example, the inequity of funding that forces the Opals to fly cattle class while the men’s team, the Boomers – who have never medalled – stretch out in business class.

It still rankles. “They rely on the fact the girls will represent the Opals no matter what because the Opals are successful. We go along with it because we want to represent our country, but things need to change in our league and things need to change for the Opals.”

Although the smaller guards have to fight twice as hard as their taller team-mates to draw attention when it comes to the big-money contracts, the professional game has been good to Harrower. “This house is because of Russia – that’s the truth of it,” she says candidly.

“I’ve been lucky enough that my dad has put me in the right direction with my money. I have always saved and never been someone who will go out and spend money on designer clothes and stuff.

“I’m sure if I played overseas for a bit longer, maybe another three or four years, I’d maybe not ever have to work.”

As it was there were many good reasons to come home – not the least being the minus 30-degree temperatures in Yekaterinburg, the fourth largest city in Russia and Harrower’s last overseas signing.

“When you look at it I was overseas for such a long time.

You learn so much and you grow up so much from playing overseas, but it is hard. When you leave it is summer here.

You miss Christmas, you miss family.”

Harrower and her then-boyfriend now-husband Aaron Willoughby – a primary school teacher and former VFL player with the Coburg Tigers – really worked to keep their long-distance relationship going. “We were together for eight years before we married. It hasn’t always been easy,

but we knew [living apart] was not forever and if I could stick it out it would set us up.”

In the end, coming back to Bendigo to help position the home team for its first premiership under the hawkeye of dad/coach Bernie seemed not just natural, but necessary.

“I felt I had achieved a lot for Australia, but I hadn’t achieved a lot in Australia. I had only one WNBL title and that was with Adelaide, because Bendigo weren’t even in the league back then.”

It was in Bendigo that it all started when – according to family legend – Harrower picked up a basketball at the age of three.

Back in those early junior years it was mum Janice who was her coach and sister Kylee who looked like she would star.

“When we were younger my sister was actually better than me,’’ Harrower says. “She was a great shooter, but didn’t have the drive I had.”

But as team manager Kylee was very much part of Bendigo Spirit’s victory over the Townsville Fire as was mum Janice, who is one of the club’s volunteer caterers.

Cut to match morning last month and Harrower, who turned 38 six days earlier, was feeling the pressure as never before.

“I was tired and stressed,” she admits. “This was bigger for me than the Olympics, because at the Olympics you are away from everyone and you just go out and play.

“Here, I am in my home town with people who have followed my whole career watching me and those stands were packed. To win this and to win it with dad was so incredibly special.”

All the more so as the game would likely be her last, though she can’t quite bring herself to say it, even now.

Harrower has made no secret of her wish to start a family, but admits “because basketball has been my life it is sort of hard to walk away.

“But if I did walk away this off season at least I am walking away with a great team that I played with and a great record.

“I want to be remembered off court as someone who was always easy to get along with, that I had the time to talk to anybody and was not big-headed or selfish.”

It’s a modest ambition for Australian basketball’s biggest little star who has always been the game’s perfect 10. I

Shop’s a one-stop job centre MMP Media publications Shop 3, 342 High Street, Melton, 3337 PO Box 424, Melton, 3337

BY TARA MURRAY WHILE unemployment levels may be low in Sunbury, the need for help in finding jobs is still important for the town.

It’s for this reason a number of local job networks, schools and Hume Council came together to form the Sunbury Employment and Learning Committee two years ago. ‘‘The various groups co-operate and came together to provide more comprehensive employment and training services for the people of Sunbury to fill a hole in the community,’’ committee chairman Mick Gibson said. ‘‘It has been a very slow process since we got together.’’

The groups involved include Ostara Australia, Youth Projects, Kangan, Job Prospects, Train to Learn and the Macedon Ranges Further Education Centre. The committee has since worked on a number of projects to try to help people find jobs and has established the Sunbury Job Shop.

After trialling the shop elsewhere, the committee has recently settled on the Sunbury Library as the location. ‘‘We have tried a couple of times before, but this will be a more permanent footing,’’ Mr Gibson said. ‘‘People are unemployed and not getting access to

Shire leans towards conservative budget TRENTHAM residents will pay 4 per cent more in rates if Hepburn Council’s draft 2013-14 budget gets the go-ahead.

The previous financial year’s increase was 4.5 per cent.

The draft paper, released last week, is open for public comment.

A total of $7.84 million in capital works is proposed. This includes $23,000 to review buildings in Trentham, a project that is now in its second stage.

The council has earmarked funds for a number of shire-wide projects dependant on state government funding.

The council has set aside $2.8 million to be spent on roads, bridges, footpaths and drainage, with hopes the state government can inject a further $1.8 million.

A new office building in Daylesford is planned at a cost of $250,000 with $150,000 funded through government grants.

Under the proposed budget, $120,000 will go

towards planning for new streetscapes in five towns, including Trentham and Glenlyon, with $90,000 coming from government grants. A total of $300,000 will be spent on Daylesford’s streetscape, with an extra $250,000 funded through government grants.

The draft budget was released with the council’s 2013-17 vision and its 10-year financial plan.

Hepburn mayor Bill McClenaghan said the budget and council plan would ‘‘best meet the needs of our residents and ratepayers over the coming 12 months and long into the future’’.

Trentham resident Ian MacBean said the budget was ‘‘conservative’’ and had minimal new initiatives. ‘‘I think most ratepayers will probably be happy enough with the 4 per cent increase [in rates]. ‘‘I don’t think [the proposed new office building in Daylesford] will go over very well with ratepayers. There’s not a lot in the budget and that’s the single biggest-ticket item.’’

Submissions on the budget paper close on Monday, May 20. Details: hepburn.vic.gov.au

BY SUMEYYA ILANBEY DIALYSIS is a daunting prospect and and support is imperative to triumph over the bad days experienced by people with kidney problems. ‘‘Dialysis is a big deal and we need to make the community aware of it,’’ says Merrilyn Harbour, who has organised a support group in Sunbury.

Mrs Harbour’s husband, George, has been a dialysis patient at Royal Melbourne Hospital.

The Harbours were asked by the hospital authorities whether they would like to start a support group in their community. ‘‘There is one lady who is preparing to go on dialysis now and is really grateful for the support group,’’ Mrs Harbour said. ‘‘She is really glad to be talking to us and says she understands dialysis better now.’’

The Sunbury Dialysis Support group was established last month.

The Sunbury Day Hospital is hosting monthly support group meetings for those wanting to share experiences and educate the community about the dialysis process. ‘‘Most people don’t know about it. We want people to be aware and come have a chat with us,’’ Mrs Harbour said. ‘‘We want to assure dialysis patients that you can get through it, no matter how daunting it seems. Support groups are a helpful way to minimise the burden on the patient and the family.’’

The support group is free of charge and is supported by the Sunbury Christian Church.

Meetings are held on the third Thursday of every month at the Sunbury Day Hospital from 1-2.30pm.

Join in: Merrilyn and George Harbour are looking for more members for their dialysis support group.

‘‘Outdoor kitchens and alfresco living features have become more affordable. Now Aussies can do what they love more often — spend as much time outdoors as they can,’’ he said. ‘‘When building a new house, builders now include alfresco areas in the original plans because they’re so popular.’’ Nick says people often like to have plenty of colour in their outdoor area rather than having everything stainless steel. ‘‘Stone has become more affordable and therefore popular. A variety of colours are available and buyers often like to match it with their indoor kitchen.’’

o you’ve been to the homeimprovement warehouse and bought yourself a barbecue. And like a car, it can be ‘pimped’, along with your entire entertainment area.

A pool and spa will always impress but to make your party patch even better, consider installing ceiling fans, a fire pit or gas fireplace.

Other impressive features include surround-sound, built-in box seating, a water feature, hammock(s) and glow-in-the-dark pebbles.

After pimping the surrounds, it’s time to focus on the cooking area.

For the ultimate outdoor kitchen include a sink, dishwasher, bar fridge with glass door, pizza oven and teppanyaki cook top.

Melbourne outdoor kitchen specialist Nick Detsirapis says kitchens range in size from 2.2 metres to as large as buyers can fit into their entertainment space. But, to squeeze in the dream elements, he recommends 2.5 to three metres.

Real Estate Today Owner/Agent Co-operation Works Wonders Selling a home requires teamwork between the agent and owner, especially when it comes to those all important inspection times. Owners can quietly assist to make the house more inviting to prospective buyers, by action taken before and during their inspections. For instance, before the inspection: *Air the house or perhaps spray a subtle room freshener around. *Ensure the house has a tidy and clean glow - beds made, clutter reduced to a minimum, kitchen and bathroom spick and span. *Open blinds, drapes and any connecting doors for an added sense of spaciousness. *Turn on some heating in winter. *Put pets outside and under control, and remove feeding bowls. *Add some homely finishing touches like vases of fresh flowers, clean towels in the bathroom. *Mow the lawns and ensure that you garden looks fresh and well tended.

And during the inspection: *It is better if you and the family are not present, as buyers will then be more relaxed and take their time to fully appreciate the property. If you have a dog as a pet, take it with you when you leave the house. *If you are present, be as inconspicuous as possible and refrain from answering or discussing specific details of the sale. That is best left to the agent. We at Dunlops are very experienced in all aspects of the real estate market, so why not take advantage of our expertise, contacts and depth of experience. Once you discuss with us your preferences, your price range and what you require, we can assist you in your search for a home of your dreams.

Feel free to call me, John Dunlop on 9744 2555 or call into our offices at Sunbury and Gisborne for a discussion.

Gritty Cannons foil Dragons’ surge

BY TEO PELLIZZERI CALDER Cannons had the answers to a Sandringham Dragons comeback and won by 26 points in TAC Cup at Highgate Reserve on Saturday.

A five-goal-to-none first quarter put the Cannons on track for the 11.12 (78) to 7.10 (52) win.

But a surge at the start of the last quarter from Sandringham made the Cannons earn their breakthrough win, with the Dragons closing to within 14 points.

Calder held the Dragons to just two goals until the mid-stages of the third quarter, at one stage leading by 37 points.

Sandringham made a game of it though, with four unanswered goals, two either side of the three-quarter-time break.

Callum Cathcart goaled just a minute into the last quarter to put Calder on notice, then forced a mistake on the last line of Calder’s defence and soccered through his third of the day.

But Charles Van Der Byl took a contested mark a minute later and converted from 15m out, restoring a 20-point cushion.

The teams exchanged misses through the next 15 minutes, with Sandringham hitting the post twice.

On 16 minutes Sandringham’s Josh Clayton kicked a 50m set shot to make the deficit 15 points.

But Victor Carboni goaled on the run in the 19th minute to again halt Sandringham’s momentum, with Josh Cauchi’s third goal of the game a minute later sealing victory.

Save for an error that cost a goal, Jake Lever was outstanding in the Calder backline alongside the consistent James Ferry. Mitchell Jensen stood out with his attack on the ball and courage in the air.

Calder also named Matthew Merlo, Liam Berry, Joel Goodyear and Carboni in its best.

SCOREBOARD Calder Cannons 11.12 (78) d Sandringham Dragons 7.10 (52) GOALS — Calder: Cauchi 3, Prestia, Christensen 2, Van Der Byl, Cooke, Carboni, Berry. Sandringham: Cathcart, Clayton 3, Freeman.

BEST — Calder: Merlo, Lever, Carboni, Berry, Goodyear, Jensen. Sandringham: Clayton, Ritchie, McLaren, Langdon, Munro, Freeman.

Cannons coach Andrew Jago was at the match but didn’t coach for medical reasons.

Midfield coach Graham Burgen was in charge for the day, his third game in five years service as an assistant coach.

Jago will return to full duties when the Cannons clash against North Ballarat Rebels at Highgate Reserve from 1pm on Saturday. ‘‘Sandringham are a good running team and good outside and we thought we could take control with some bigger-bodied onballers inside,’’ Burgen said. ‘‘We didn’t want to give the ball back and played a possession game. ‘‘Our midfielders hit up the small and mid-size forwards. The goals came from run-and-carry. ‘‘I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have concerns in the box (during Sandringham’s comeback) because this team has been in front before and made mistakes. ‘‘But we made less and less mistakes, and at three-quarter-time we encouraged the team to keep taking risks and keep taking chances. ‘‘This is the first week we’ve gone from having six on the bench to four on the bench, and players went from between 60 to 70 per cent game time to 90.’’

INBRIEF

Bulldogs’ tails between legs again THE BFL grand final rematch was anything but the classic encounter played out by Golden Square and Gisborne for the premiership last September, with the premiers this time romping to a 64-point win.

The 16.5 (101) to 5.7 (37) win was a superb response by Golden Square to its thrashing by Strathfieldsaye a week earlier, but Gisborne failed to fire a shot and has now started the season on the bottom of the ladder with back-toback losses by a combined 102 points.

The Bulldogs looked a shadow of the team that finished less than a kick away from winning the premiership last year.

“It was a very average performance . . .we just torched the ball today, especially in that first

half,” Gisborne coach Kevin Fitzgerald said.

“We’ve got a hell of a lot of work to do . . . I honestly believe there are blokes who think they are better than they are, so we have to go back and start to realise that it’s hard work.’’

Gisborne returns to Gardiner Reserve this weekend to face Maryborough (one win, two losses).

In Reserves, Kyneton’s winless start to the season hit a worrying low as Eaglehawk kept the Tigers goalless. Eaglehawk won 13.17 (95) to Kyneton 0.4 (4).

In A grade netball, Gisborne continued its unbeaten start to the season with a 42-35 win against Golden Square.

Basketball It was a breakthrough at last for Sunbury Jets on Saturday as the men recorded their first division 1 win of the season by beating Melbourne University. The 85-78 was enough to get one-andfive Sunbury off the foot of Terrill pool, overtaking winless Warrnambool (0-7). Corey Collier scored 22 points in the victory with Gavin Mitchell (17) and Jay Boyle (16) other leading contributors.

Sunbury’s women are still winless though, losing 61-55 to Camberwell Dragons to slip to zero-andfive. Emmie O’Nial scored 11 points and grabbed 17 rebounds for the Lady Jets while Chelsea Giannino scored 11 points. Sunbury’s men are at Camberwell this Sunday and the women head to Traralgon on Saturday night to play LaTrobe City.

Soccer Sunbury United’s up-and-down start to the FFV state league 3 north-west season continued on

Saturday with a 2-0 home loss against Sporting Whittlesea. United’s three points has it sitting in 10th of 12 on the table tied with teams 8th to 11th.

Sunbury plays at Yarraville on Saturday.

In Men’s Metro 1, Gisborne has two losses from two after a 2-4 loss to South Yarra. Samuel Dias and Eustathios Tzamouranis scored Gisborne’s goals. Gisborne’s state league 3 west women lost 4-1 to Keilor Wolves. In Metro 2 north-west, Kyneton District drew 2-2 with Altona City. Jake Sartori and Ryan Cole scored Kyneton’s goals.

Kyneton’s women lost 7-1 to Mill Park in state 3 north.

VWFL Bendigo showed Sunbury Lions no mercy on Sunday as the home team was held scoreless at Clarke Oval. Bendigo won 8.11 (59) to no score.

Sunbury will look to bounce back at home against North Geelong at noon this Sunday.

Poor kicking costs Devils as Lions win

BY TEO PELLIZZERI SUNBURY survived a kick after the siren to continue its unbeaten start to the Ballarat Football League season at Darley’s expense on Saturday night.

Harley Inglis put his shot from about 45m wide to the left after the final siren to leave Sunbury standing, 11.4 (70) to 9.14 (68).

But it should not have come down to an all-ornothing kick for Inglis as three of his teammates missed gilt-edged chances in a gripping last eight minutes of action.

Sunbury showed its class in slippery conditions, getting out to a 12-point advantage at the 15-minute mark. The Lions enjoyed the advantage of scoreboard pressure for much of the night, with Darley’s spells in the lead brief enough to leave the Devils feeling like they were always chasing the game.

Simon Clarke was Darley’s main headache and kicked five goals, the fifth a brilliant dribbling effort from close range 10 minutes into the last quarter after ducking and weaving away from his man Sam Hitchings.

Jake Edwards (three goals) put Darley within a

kick on 19 minutes when he converted a 30m set shot from the front. But a minute later when Edwards won a free kick 40m out in front for holding the ball, he missed to the right.

Dane Grenfell missed from 30m on an angle at the 22-minute mark, then Brett O’Bree from 30m out after a 50m penalty that took him from the forward flank into shooting range.

Sunbury made a venture into their attacking 50m to try for a sealing goal but Darley swept the ball off the last line of defence.

On the last passage of play, Inglis marked a long hopeful kick from the wing and was at the top of his run-up when the siren went.

DARLEY coach Rod MacPherson couldn’t believe his team’s inaccuracy as the Devils blew a host of chances to beat Sunbury on Saturday night.

Four missed shots on goal at end to the night, dewy conditions or not, was unacceptable for the Darley coach. ‘‘That’s a fork in the road for the season,’’ MacPherson said. ‘‘If that doesn’t burn in their guts. . .it’s easy to be emotional after a game but that’s as agonising a loss as I’ve been involved with in a long time. ‘‘We burnt 15 forward entries in that last quarter. I thought that for large sections we controlled the game and we didn’t have the polish, composure and calmness to get it done. ‘‘Some of our young players missed but also some of our experienced players and cooler heads who should have been able to finish. ‘‘When we kicked downhill in the second quarter our direction and ball use was terrible, spent a lot of time over on the scoreboard (outer) side and needed to learn from that. In the last quarter we went around the higher side where you should be able to convert. ‘‘One of the issues that’s never in dispute with Darley is the club prides itself on being aggressive and strong at the footy. We’ve got to be more clinical when we get the ball in open space to transition, it’s something Sunbury do exceptionally well.’’

MacPherson said his own players needed to take some responsibility for their kicking for

goal. ‘‘Unfortunately a lot of country players now see the only time for footy being when they come to training on Tuesday and Thursday nights. When you have to balance fitness, structure and other components, you can’t afford the luxury of letting forwards drop out to work on kicking goals. ‘‘They have to be professional enough to find the time themselves.’’

Sunbury coach Rick Horwood asked his players to come to training today with a selfassessment of their match performance.

He told his players to go one-on-one at the three-quarter-time address and implored them to be accountable to their opponent. ‘‘It’s great to win for Scott Lobb in his 200th game,’’ Horwood said. ‘‘There was fatigue, we’ve been slowly building and we’re probably not as up-and-running as much as we were in previous seasons. That’s the risk you take, that you might drop an early game, but we’ll get a lot out of it and bank an early four points. ‘‘Darley played a loose man and halfway through the third quarter we decided we weren’t going to allow that so we manned up.’’

Sunbury’s last-quarter goals came thanks to some moments of individual inspiration from Jay Cheep with a goal assist from midfield and Simon Clarke one-on-one in the forward line.

Rivalry round pits Sunbury against Redan in the grand final rematch at City Oval, while Darley hosts Bacchus Marsh at Darley Park.

It’s Sunbury all the way SUNBURY continued its winning start to the season in the Riddell District Netball League A grade, beating Diggers Rest 54-28 on Saturday.

Kila Elavo dominated for the Kangaroos, scoring 37 goals, as Sunbury backed up from its win over Rupertswood the week before.

The B and C grade teams also beat Diggers Rest, 24-22 and 26-17 respectively.

Coach Melanie Watts said the wins proved Sunbury had a strong team despite having a nearly new line-up.

“We’re really building together as a team,” she said. “We started off a bit slowly in the first quarter in the A grade, Diggers Rest had good pressure early and we had to adjust to that.

“But after that we worked a lot better and we looked more like the team that beat Rupertswood last week.

“We took a bit longer to settle this week but the girls are coming together and we are learning as we go. We mixed it up a bit more and it worked.”

In other A grade matches Melton Centrals destroyed Woodend-Hesket 80-22. The Hawks did not reach double figures until the third quarter.

Romsey beat Wallan 40-70, Macedon took the points over Rupertswood with a 40-23 victory and Lancefield beat Rockbank 25-12 in an incredibly low-scoring contest.

Round three football and netball fixtures – Sunbury Kangaroos v Rockbank, Broadford v Diggers Rest, Lancefield v Rupertswood, Melton Centrals v Kilmore, Riddell v Woodend-Hesket, Macedon v Romsey, Wallan bye.

Burras hold on to deny Kangas

BY DANIEL PAPROTH A CLUTCH goal to Brandon Kilty was enough for Diggers Rest to get a two-point win over Sunbury Kangaroos in Riddell District Football League on Saturday.

Diggers Rest went into the final quarter with a three-goal lead and just managed to hold on. Sunbury’s Jason King opened the scoring in the last term and, when Matt Welsh ran into an open goal 10 minutes later, the margin was back to three points.

Kilty’s mark, set shot and goal was the Burras’ only one for the quarter after three crucial misses early in the term. His major extended the lead back to nine points and despite a late goal to Sunbury’s Jake Powell from a 50-metre penalty, Diggers Rest did enough to hold on.

The Burras started the game in terrific style, simply outclassing the Kangaroos, who were lethargic.

Diggers had nine shots on goal to two for the quarter and but for inaccurate kicking would have led by more than 22 points at the first break.

But this Sunbury team cannot be kept down, and despite missing five premiership players, the Kangaroos had cut the margin to just a point at half-time. Much of the scoring was done to the Houdini Drive end, with just four of the game’s 20 goals scored at the primary school end.

Diggers kicked the only three goals of the third quarter.

In the end it was the Burras’ pres-

SCOREBOARD Diggers Rest 10.12 (72) d Sunbury 10.10 (70) Diggers Rest – goals: S. Sims, S. Clarke 2, T. Gleeson, B. Kilty, R. Hannan, J. Piccolo, B. Cunningham, T. Evans.

Best: A. Richardson, S. Clarke, T. Gleeson, B. Caton, D. Hannan, K. Marsh.

Sunbury – goals: B. Sutherland, A. Leonard 2, M. Welsh, R. Pretty, D. Pollard, J. Powell, J. King, R. Hatty.

sure that got them over the line. When all signs pointed to Sunbury coming home with a two or three-goal win, Diggers Rest found the extra commitment needed, getting numbers behind the ball to thwart Sunbury’s forward50 entries late in the game.

“We were three goals up at threequarter-time and we just had to keep the pressure up in the last,” said Burras coach Jamie Elliott. “It was our pressure mainly. We had 16 tackles in the last quarter, put our head over the footy and worked pretty hard.’’

His Sunbury counterpart Chris Meacham wasn’t too concerned with the loss. “To be honest it’s not frustrating to come to Diggers Rest and lose by two points. We’ll get a lot out of it,” he said. “It was a 50-50 hitout and they just wanted to win a lot more in the end.”

Sunbury takes on Rockbank on Anzac Day and Diggers Rest travels to Broadford to take on the might of Barry Hall.

Leading leap: Diggers Rest’s Shaun Sims goes for a mark against Sunbury Kangaroos’ Dwayne Tate. For more shots by Darren Howe, go to sunburyweekly.com.au

Blues keep perfect record, but win was no cakewalk

BY DANIEL PAPROTH MELTON Centrals have continued their perfect start to the Riddell District Football League, winning their third consecutive game by 38 points against Woodend-Hesket on Saturday.

The Centrals sit atop the ladder on 12 points, though the win was not as comfortable as expected.

After wasting several opportunities in the first quarter — Melton had 10 scoring shots to two but led by only 18 points — Woodend hit back in the second quarter with three goals to trail by 10 going into half-time.

But the Centrals largely controlled the match from there on out, restricting the Hawks to three goals in the second half as they booted seven of their own.

Adam Fenton had his quietest day of the season but still kicked four goals, taking his season tally to 17 in three games.

Lancefield bounced back from its seven-goal loss to a Barry Hall-led Broadford in round one with a 10-point win over Rockbank.

The win was all the more impressive considering the Tigers trailed by 21 points at threequarter time. It was a see-sawing contest for most of the afternoon, with Lancefield up by three goals at quarter time only to fall behind in the second and third quarters.

But five goals to three behinds in the final term gave Lancefield the victory it needed.

Romsey led all day in a comfortable 72-win over Wallan. The Redbacks led by 20 at the main break but broke the game open with seven goals in the third quarter before rubbing more salt in
