Pulling out all the stops BENDIGO has one of the finest pipe organs in the country, and it is about to sound out the message for the next generation of music lovers. The newly-created Australian and New Zealand College of Organists is presenting four fundraising concerts to begin a nationwide outreach program providing school students with the chance to experience the nation’s pipe organ heritage. Sacred Heart Cathedral is the venue for one of the concerts, next Friday, November 11 at 7.30pm. Admission is $25/20, school-aged children free. KEY PLAYER: Christopher Cook at the Sacred Heart Cathedral organ.

A NEW plan for the city’s buses could see real-time tracking information sent to the mobile phones of passengers while they wait. Under the plan, passengers waiting for a bus will be told exactly when it will arrive at their stop, and inform them of any delays. The technology is part of a larger bus plan revealed at www.bendigoweekly.com.au on Monday morning.

Where’s the bus? Check your phone

The plan is council’s latest attempt to ease the chaos created when the Department of Transport re-routed every CBD bus down Mitchell Street more than three years ago. Council seems to be moving away from its old plan to widen the

Mitchell Street footpaths and have the buses stop in the left-hand lane of the busy street. The new plan, which is in its very early stages, involves keeping the bus stops where they are and building two large shelters nearby. One shelter would be built at

the end of the Hargreaves Mall, and another where Mitchell Street and Hargreaves Street meet, narrowing the road but keeping traffic flow. The concept plans, seen by the Bendigo Weekly, also include large screens telling passengers when

their bus is about to arrive, which will allow them to move down to the bus stops. That Integrated Transport System technology will track buses using GPS and relay that information to the large screens. It will also allow that same information to be sent to mobile phones for any Bendigo bus stop and route. Continued Page 5 TWO WAY STREET Page 5

Burnt tree deal By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

PARKS VICTORIA would have liked them all left, the residents wanted them all gone. This week’s announcement that the dead trees running along one side of Maiden Gully Road will be removed to a depth of 10 metres inside the park boundary is a compromise. It puts an end to a saga which began shortly after the February 2009 bushfires. “That’s the agreement we ended up with,” campaigner Joy Bice said. “It’s 10 metres further than the four metres council will clear. “We didn’t really get a chance to negotiate (at a mediation session last month) but I am feeling a sense of relief.” In July, Environment and Climate Change Minister Ryan Smith ruled that the burnt trees would not be removed. Member for Bendigo West Maree Edwards then tabled a 1200-signature petition in parliament, calling for the decision to be reversed. This week, Mr Smith did just that. “The Coalition was determined to find the best possible outcome for the locals,” Mr

Smith said. “The wishes of the community have been respected.” Mrs Bice said council has informed the road’s residents they will slash the vegetation along the road verge on Monday. The clearing of the 10 metres

council Planning and Development director Prue Mansfield said although the minister had given an exemption, the Department of Sustainability and Environment has advised they are unable to go ahead without a planning permit.

On the whole, we are satisfied, because we weren’t really hopeful of getting anywhere beyond that, into the area maintained by Parks Victoria, is subject to approval, which will be sought from council in the next month. City of Greater Bendigo

Resident Roy Sawers said he was still “sceptical”. “It’s been left too late,” Mr Sawers said. “If they had let the community services groups go in there

earlier, someone could have got some use out of the cleared wood. “Hopefully, now they’ll clear it right out so it won’t be a fire hazard anymore.” Mrs Bice said the residents hope the work will be completed by Christmas. “On the whole, we are satisfied, because we weren’t really hopeful of getting anywhere,” Mrs Bice said. “I hope this encourages the people of Kinglake who are also wanting the dead trees removed.” Tell us your thoughts

Violence sparks call for action as patrons left in shock

Library safety fear By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

THE Bendigo Library is calling for help to cope with an increase in anti-social behaviour near the entrance to their building in the centre of the city. “It’s become a major issue, and it’s a community issue,” manager Vivien Newton said, following an incident on Tuesday when a young man was arrested for smashing a plate glass window. “There are incidents every week in the vicinity of the library, and we have dealt with them to the best of our capacity. Ms Newton said patrons of the library feel intimidated

by groups of young people and adults who gather on the walkway. The access area is shared by the library and the two youth-support agencies also in the building, Headspace

Goldfields Library chief executive officer Carolyn Macvean said young people are “very welcome” at the library. “We encourage them to use our wonderful resources

out a solution but this is a problem for the community, not just the library.” Ms Newton said the library and youth services have asked for more rubbish bins in the area and also for the seats to be rearranged to free up the footpath. The police have also been asked to extend their mall walk-throughs to include a circuit of the library. “We have noticed that a greater informal police presence does make a difference,” Ms Newton said. “This has been going on for a while now, but it’s come to a point where something must be done, and we would like help to do it.”

We have noticed that a greater informal police presence does make a difference and Connect Central. It was a window of the agencies’ offices that was damaged in Tuesday’s incident. Library users who witnessed the violence were shocked. Several people told the Bendigo Weekly they were afraid to visit the library.

GARDEN GREATS: Lois Campbell and Ruth Rule expect a good turnout. By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

WITH roses, irises, pot plants, cut flowers, floral art, succulents, fruit and vegetables, as well as floral photography and a children’s section, who wouldn’t get along to the Bendigo Garden Club’s Spring Flower Show? That’s the question hardworking committee members Lois Campbell and Ruth Rule are asking themselves as they gear up for this year’s final preparations. “We are now the best show outside Melbourne,” Mrs Campbell said.

“We have over 700 entries, and we’ve worked hard to make the floral art section a feature with good prizes. “It’s a busy time of year, but we would really love to see more people visit us over the two days.” With such a good spring for gardens, the club is hoping their show this year will entice out many more than the couple of hundred Bendigonians they have had through the gates in the past couple of years. Mrs Rule, who has what she calls the “iris virus”, will be once again on hand as part of the club’s catering group,

providing Devonshire teas for visitors. A cook for many years before retirement, Mrs Rule said she will spend most of the time during the show in the kitchen, but she will be on hand to tell people how to cross-pollinate irises, if need be. ”I started out with three roses for my birthday 20 years ago,” Mrs Rule said. “Now I have between three and 400 different irises. “It’s a virus and there’s no cure!” Mrs Campbell, who will be showing succulents and cacti at the show, said six judges will

day with his dry wit, impersonating personalities such as Bruce MacAvaney, Sam Newman and Ian Thorpe. The serious side of the event will be covered by local urologist Stephen Lindsay who will discuss the importance of regular prostate checks. While there aren’t many tickets left, Mr Sutherland is calling for more auction items for the event. So far, the list includes:

be coming from Swan Hill. “There’s a trading table with many plants for sale and Purtill’s Wholesale Nursery and Neangar Nursery have provided us with seedlings and plants. “Because of the rains and the lifting of water restrictions, our gardens are a picture this year. “So we’re expecting even more entries in the garden show.” The Spring Flower Show is at Bendigo Exhibition Centre, Holmes Road, tomorrow (2pm-5pm) and Sunday (9am4pm), entry $3.

To book tables or donate auction lots and raffle prizes, contact Mr Sutherland on 0418 509 430. Tickets are $100 each, with tables of 10.

Octobra finds support

BENDIGONIANS have thrown their support behind the Octobra charity, collecting bras for those in developing nations. Headed by The Professionals real estate agency and Fernwood, more than 2700 bras were collected throughout the city. Organiser Jacinta McIvor thanked locals for their help. “It has been fantastic,” she said. “Fernwood donated $2000, as they said they would if we received enough bras to stretch around the QEO. “We did it easily. That money will go to the National Breast Cancer Foundation.” Mrs McIvor said she was hoping to repeat the success of the event next year. “We are looking for somewhere bigger next year,” she said. “If anyone has any idea of a large local space or building we can aim to cover in bras, let us know.”

ELECTED: Councillor Alec Sandner.

Early consultation marks a significant shift

Keeping track of buses

Two-way street By ANTHONY RADFORD

THE City of Greater Bendigo council’s latest plan to solve the Mitchell Street bus chaos shows a significant shift in the way it handles major projects. Council Presentation and Assets director Darren Fuzzard has created what is basically just an idea. He is running that idea past the traders before anyone else. Based on their feedback, he will then make any changes and talk to bus users about it. Only then will the project be developed beyond concept stage and presented to councillors. Then it will go out for formal consultation for the public to see and comment on. After that, council will vote on it. The change to a more consultative style is dramatically different to how the Mitchell Street project, and other major council projects, have been handled in the past. The Department of Transport simply re-routed all CBD buses down Mitchell Street

without telling anyone – traders or passengers. Then, after a backlash, the DoT and council presented another plan – where footpaths were widened and buses stopped in the left-hand lane – to the public and simply said this was going to happen. Not surprisingly, that also

From Page 1 Council Presentation and Assets director Darren Fuzzard said the plan could solve issues with passengers crowding footpaths and significantly increase the ease of catching public transport. “We need the DoT support to make this happen,” he said. “I have spoken to them and to VicRoads and they both have been happy to entertain the idea and to keep talking about it.” Mr Fuzzard said a similar system was about to be rolled out on the Melbourne bus system. “We have the opportunity to be the first in regional Victoria,” he said. “The potential is enormous to build on. “All of the network could have it and buses could be tracked in every location at every stop. “Young people might not even need the signs. “If they have a smart phone they could access the information wherever they are and whenever they want to use it.”

We need to understand whether or not this is a good idea... attracted major criticism from traders and drivers. A similar process was followed with both Hargreaves Mall redevelopment plans, and failed spectacularly. Mr Fuzzard’s new process has brought interested parties in at the ground level. This plan has hardly gone near an architect or draftsman. It is purely an idea, an idea Mr Fuzzard is nutting out with affected parties before a detailed plan is produced. “We are going to do plenty of consultation and try and get

it well then we will find ourselves still talking about this in a few years’ time and I don’t want that.” Mr Fuzzard said he would try and meet every trader in the affected area. “We have spoken to some and we will speak to more,” he said. “If there is someone we don’t talk to who wants to be consulted, they can contact us. “We need to understand whether or not this is a good idea, before moving to the formal process.”

Teamwork pays off TEAM leader Juanita Miller said six of the 12 staff have entered and the event has motivated all the staff – not just the entrants. “We haven’t been focusing on just weight loss, but on exercising and healthy eating choices,” she said. “This has been a wonderful team-building exercise and we will continue it long after Biggest Winner finishes.” Some changes in the Noah’s Ark workplace include: ● Replacing sweet biscuits at

morning tea with dips and vegetable sticks. Replacing slices at special events (eg staff birthday) with fruit platters.

●

●A

Monday morning health quiz for all staff, developed by Juanita, with the winner receiving a small plant, a fruit smoothie or other token gift. A ‘wellbeing book’ into which the quiz answers are displayed, and staff can place recipes and other healthy tips and advice.

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, November 4, 2011

WITH three weeks to go in the Bendigo’s Biggest Winner healthy lifestyle challenge, the team of six from Noah’s Ark is one of the front runners – certainly in the teamwork stakes. “There have also been changes among the staffs’ attitude to exercise, with one joining a gym, some parking further away from work and walking in, two now taking up rowing in preparation for the Murray River marathon, two entering the recent Bendigo fun run, and others meeting after work to go walking,” Juanita added. “We have been using the Sue Stanley book ‘Fitness Forever’ we received in our starter pack, and making use of the

vouchers and pool and gym access. It has just snowballed and we are really enjoying this, even the staff who aren’t entered.” Regional manager Michele Totterdell commended the Bendigo staff on their commitment, and said she would be recommending that the parent organisation subsidise the team entry for Noah’s Ark Bendigo next year. “This has been a great initiative for our workplace and I recommend it to other workplac-

es next year. We are all looking forward to the awards night too, to meet up with other entrants,” Michele said. The awards night is Tuesday, November 29.

Disappointed band reps tell mayor of their concerns

Not appy about Bendigo major events snub

Parade talks go on By ANTHONY RADFORD

BENDIGO Easter Festival organisers and representatives of local pipe and brass bands were in talks last night aimed at finding a compromise to the gala parade impasse. Late last month www.bendigoweekly.com.au revealed financial and planning reasons meant the traditional four-day carnival would be cut to three days – from Good Friday to Easter Sunday. The gala parade was shifted to Sunday, making it difficult for the city’s celebrated bands to march because of national competitions on the Easter weekend. Band representatives last night told City of Greater Bendigo mayor and festival committee chairman Rod Fyffe the proposed changes would be detrimental to the city’s musical community. “The bands requested the City of Greater Bendigo and the Bendigo Easter Festival Committee reconsider the decision to move the Torchlight Procession to Easter Saturday and the Gala Parade to Easter Sunday,” band member and protest organiser Chris Earl said. “Some bands will be deprived of appearing before their biggest audience of the year if changes to the timing of Bendigo’s Easter parades proceed.

“In a statement a number of bands expressed disappointment that they, along with many other organisations in Bendigo, were not consulted before the proposed changes were announced a fortnight ago.” Mr Earl said all bands traditionally planned to return to Bendigo for the parade and Torchlight Procession. “Bendigo bands have created a majesty and color free.

The Bendigo Olive Fiesta also rates a mention, as does the Australian Sheep and Wool Show. During the launch this week, Mr Drum said the app was “an important way to make sure information on local events was always available to locals and visitors. “We have to remain ready to use whatever tools technology provides to get our powerful regional message heard far and wide,” he said. Mr Rich-Phillips encouraged all Victorians to use the app. “The app covers major tourism events as well as community and regional events in Victoria,” he said.

rades to maximise local participation and best showcase the community to visitors are Easter Sunday and Easter Monday.” Cr Fyffe said the meeting was aimed at listening to each other. “It is part of the consultation process,” he said. “We are trying to get a better understanding of each other so we can move on.”

A NEW State Government smart phone app has snubbed two of Bendigo’s largest tourist events. The app, called VicEvents, was launched this week by Technology Minister Gordon Rich-Phillips and Nationals Member for Bendigo Damian Drum. The app is aimed at allowing “community groups and businesses” to promote their events. The government has come under fire for not giving a cent to the Bendigo Easter Festival, despite its need for funding. The festival does not receive any love from the new app, which fails to list it in any of its categories such as dates, council areas or types of events. To rub salt into the wound, rival Ballarat’s largest community festival – the Begonia Festival – is listed. However, if those who download the app are looking for something to do at Easter next year, they can choose from the Melbourne International Comedy Festival, the Stawell Gift, or the Melbourne UCI Track Cycling World Championships. Another of Bendigo’s major events – the International Cycling Madison – also doesn’t make the list. If you have the app and want to travel somewhere for the long weekend, the choices are Ballarat’s Begonia Festival, its antique fair, a festival of

Allan quizzes DHS

By ANTHONY RADFORD

MEMBER for Bendigo East Jacinta Allan has tackled Community Services Minister Mary Wooldridge in parliament over last week’s release of a scathing Ombudsman’s report into the Bendigo DHS office. Acting Ombudsman John Taylor’s report found Bendigo Department of Human Services staff failed to investigate reports of children at risk to make their completion figures look good. The claims were part of a scathing report on the Bendigo office and the Loddon Mallee region. Responding to a whistle blower, Mr Taylor said there was an intentional policy decision by the Bendigo office to reduce the amount of child protection reports it investigated. Ms Allan said the report left a lot of questions unanswered. “While the Minister and the Liberal National Government have said that they accept the six recommendations made by the Ombudsman, there are serious questions that the Minister needs to answer regarding the safety of the children identified in the report,” she said. “I am particularly concerned that children may have been left at risk. The Minister needs to answer these questions.

“To date she and her Liberal National Government have not addressed issues about the welfare of these children under her watch.” Ms Allan asked: • How many of the 59 children whose cases were reopened as a result of the investigation were placed in at-risk situations as a result of their case being closed. • How many of the 90 cases closed on June 28, 2011 have been reviewed and as a result reopened. • How many of the child protection cases

closed during May and June 2011 have been reviewed and as a result reopened. • How many children, of the 90 child protection cases closed on June 28, 2011 have been left at risk because their cases were closed. A spokesman for Ms Wooldridge said the government was acting on the report. “The department is doing what the Ombudsman has recommended in regard to protecting vulnerable children in the Loddon Mallee region and Victoria generally,” he said. “The safety and well-

I am particularly concerned children may have been left at risk. These questions need to be answered being of these children is the driving factor behind the reforms of the child protection system, which was left in crisis by the former Labor Government. “As well as accepting the Ombudsman’s six recommendations, his report will be forwarded to the Protecting Victoria’s Vulnerable Children Inquiry, which is comprehensively investigating the child protection system and will report to government in January 2012.” Meanwhile, Domestic Violence Victoria has called for more funding to better co-ordinate responses to children who

have experienced family violence. “Vulnerable children deserve better, and the fact that over 50 per cent of the child protection notifications are a result of or involve family violence is a disgrace and something the Victorian Government must tackle head-on,” DVV chief executive officer Fiona McCormack said. “Bendigo Family Violence services said that there was a significant need for more integration between the services that encounter vulnerable children, in order to ensure that no child is left without support.”

One of the shifts in the service is treatment of “sexually abusive behaviour”, which provides therapeutic services to young people aged from four to 14 years nine months. “There must be an expectation that they act appropriately, and understand their behaviour is offending or hurting someone,” Ms Oates said. “Our hope is that, from the treatment, they will go on to lead normal lives.”

Bendigo Day Surgery - Our Patients Who are our patients? Our patients are any privately insured or self paying patient who requires a surgical or medical procedure which can be done as a day case, meaning the patient is admitted and discharged home on the same day. How many patients have been admitted to Bendigo Day Surgery? Over 12,000 since we opened on November 11 2009. How do you become a patient of Bendigo Day Surgery? If you have a condition requiring treatment, your GP or other medical professional would refer you to one of the many specialists who have admitting rights at Bendigo Day Surgery. Patients are booked on operating lists as per the specialists booked sessions. How are patient admissions organized? Once an operating list has been submitted it is referred to the Patient Services Manager of BDS. This nurse then organises the list based on medical needs, distance to travel, patient requests and any other relevant factors. All patients are contacted the day prior to their admission and their medical history is discussed. Patients are then informed of their fasting requirements and admission time. All admissions are staggered so as to attempt to avoid any unnecessary waiting for our patients. Are all patients with health insurance covered for admission to the Bendigo Day Surgery? Yes, if their cover is for treatment at a private hospital. We have contracts with all health funds. All of our contracts are for no out of pocket expenses to be paid by the patient to BDS, unless a patient has an excess to pay as part of their health fund contract. Can patients with no health insurance come to Bendigo Day Surgery? Yes, we have self funded pricing for patients who have chosen not to take out health insurance. From time to time we have also been able to assist Bendigo Health with public patients to help them reduce their waiting lists. How do I find out more about Bendigo Day Surgery? We can be contacted by telephone on 5444 3533 or you can visit our website www.bendigodaysurgery.com.au. We are even on facebook and Twitter now!

SHARING HER SANCTUARY: Judy Milner will open her garden. Photo: VICKI HARRINGTON.

By VICKI HARRINGTON

THE Open Gardens Australia Scheme will showcase three of Bendigo’s best gardens this weekend. A not-for-profit organisation, the scheme is dedicated to promoting the enjoyment, knowledge and benefits of gardens and gardening to the Australian community. Bendigo gardens open tomorrow and Sunday are “Tatiara� at 30 Herbert Avenue in Strathdale featuring massed cottage-style plantings amid clipped hedges. “The Gilded Garden� at 24 DeGille Street includes a rose arbour, gleditsia forest, crabapple walk, an orchard and vegetables and the Laidler garden at 123 Neale Street is a leafy garden encompassing

outdoor rooms where lawns give way to paved areas designed for entertaining. Opening her garden as part of the Open Garden Scheme for the first time has been a stimulus for Judy Milner of The Gilded Garden. She began her two-acre garden 11 years ago while undergoing treatment for breast cancer. “Planning the garden was my release, my sanctuary during a difficult time. It gave me something else to think about, to look forward to,� Judy said. Her next hurdle was the drought. “I just about gave up on the garden, I carried water for ages and became depressed watching it wither and die before my eyes,� she said. “I drew the curtains one

day and threatened to take up embroidery.� She didn’t and when the rains finally arrived in 2010, the majority of her garden immediately came back to life. After opening her garden in 2009 to support the Zonta Club of Bendigo, Open Gardens Australia invited her to join their scheme prompting, her to finally finish all the little jobs and projects she originally envisioned. All three gardens will be open from 10am to 4.30pm on Saturday and Sunday ($6, under-18s free). Devonshire teas will be available with proceeds going to Zonta Birthing Kits and Dragons Abreast Bendigo.

Ben – It’s the local you know 3BO. That was Bruno Mars and The Lazy Song. Nothing lazy about this man, Bendigo Weekly editor Anthony Radford joins us this morning. How did you go in the Melbourne Cup? Anthony – Probably like many locals I put my money on At First Sight. I saw his run to finish second in the Bendigo Cup and I thought the extra few hundred metres would suit him, but it wasn’t to be. Ben – Let’s revisit a local issue that hasn’t been front and centre for a while now, the buses in Mitchell Street. You ran a story on the web earlier in the week. Tell us a bit about that. Anthony – We ran a story on Monday morning about new plans to try and fix the bus chaos which has been going on in Mitchell Street for more than three years now. Council came up with a new plan that could be a good one. They want to build shelters away from the bus stops themselves, away from any shops, which will make things a bit cleaner. It could just work. Some traders like it and others think it will be a waste of money. Ben – Radders, an issue that crops up far too often for my liking is violence in the CBD. This time it is near the library. What has happened here? Anthony – The anti-social behaviour in Hargreaves Mall seems to have shifted down Hargreaves St. There was an incident yesterday out the front of the library, a window was smashed and I believe a young man was arrested. There have been a number of reports the past couple of weeks of incidences in this area. A couple of youth services have set up shop next to the library, which has resulted in youth congregating there and some behaving very poorly. Yesterday’s incident was violent and scary and we had a number of people contact us to voice their displeasure and call for something to change. Ben – I think there are a few places in the world you shouldn’t feel intimidated or scared and your local library is one of those. Let’s hope that situation improves very quickly.

Double standards? I RECENTLY read in the City of Greater Bendigo’s Environmental Health and Local Laws manager statement that both council officers and police officers will be on patrol over the swap meet weekend to enforce the recently passed council bylaw that prohibits a person from advertising a motor vehicle for sale on a road reserve. This would appear to be a little heavy handed for our visitors and local motoring enthusiasts for that weekend. You only have to travel along the Midland Highway at Epsom any day of the week and you will find several LMCT dealers with their cars for sale on either the roadway or the nature strip. Even on a trip through High Street, Bendigo out to Kangaroo Flat I saw the same offences being committed by some dealers out there. So can council inform us when these dealers will receive the full force of the law, as the motoring enthusiasts have been threatened with, or is there another double standard at work? Robert K Smallpage, Huntly

The right three days OUR Bendigo community has sent a very clear and articulate message over the past week regarding the future format of the Bendigo Easter Festival. We want our city’s showcase event, if it is to be three days, on the right three days – Easter Saturday, Easter Sunday and climaxing on Easter Monday with the gala parade. The right three days will show respect to the Christian traditions of Good Friday, will engage locals and visitors to our city on the key days of the Easter break and maximise the opportunities for community participation in our festival. The role of community organisations and volunteers who have made and shaped our Easter traditions in Bendigo is celebrated and applauded, sponsors recognised and thanked for contributing to our community in a positive way. However, the decision by City of Greater Bendigo and the Easter Festival committee without community consultation to change the scheduling

from 2012 is not in step with the community. It is disappointing there has been no response of substance to views expressed by the festival’s major stakeholder – the community – from the Bendigo Easter Festival. The campaign to have the 2012 festival on the right three days has already gained support from within the Christian and Chinese communities of Bendigo as well as our local brass and pipe bands (many of their players will be at Australian championships at the time the festival committee proposes holding parades). Support is also coming from expatriate Bendigonians who return at Easter and from other bands across Victoria. Importantly, the campaign is attracting strong support from our community that is passionate about its Easter celebrations and traditions. With a lifetime of involvement in brass and pipe bands, and currently being president of Golden City Pipe Band, I intend to be at the meeting called by the mayor and festival chairman Cr Rod Fyffe on Thursday. Our community can be assured that its views and comments will be placed before the mayor to ensure that the 2012

Bendigo Easter Festival is conducted on the right three days. Chris Earl, Kangaroo Flat

Councils must step up LOCAL councils must lead the way to ensure regional Australia benefits from high-speed broadband. This is the evidence the Regional Telecommunications Independent Review Committee heard this week from Dr Tim Williams, a global expert in community regeneration and author of ‘Connecting Communities’, a report commissioned by broadband technology company Huawei. His point is clear: if local councils don’t act now, their communities risk missing out on the wealth of benefits broadband can bring to the bush. Rural and regional Australia is now getting the attention it deserves regarding the critical utility of the 21st century: highspeed broadband. It is time for local councils to step up and ensure their communities don’t miss out.

Magnificent white wedding display RECENTLY I was given the opportunity to attend the White Wedding at the Bendigo Art Gallery. How wonderful to wander around and go back in time looking at wedding dresses of decades gone by and for some to bring back happy memories. People who took the time and effort probably didn’t even realise that just by lending their wedding outfit to be viewed, they would give other people in the community such pleasure, not forgetting those who spent many tireless hours preparing this magnificent display. I would like to congratulate all those who had any part in making this possible. Displays like this should happen more often. Well done and once again thanks to all concerned. Lyn Hartland, Bendigo

Action is needed SHOULD Bendigo residents have the chance to elect their own leader? That’s the question the Bendigo Weekly believes needs to be not just asked, but more importantly answered. This week’s announcement of the next mayor for our city for the next 12 months is a good catalyst

for such a discussion. Of the 20 largest cities in Australia, only one or two continue to elect their mayor the way Bendigo does. The time is ripe for Bendigo to consider the way it considers its future leaders. Geelong is about to change the way it elects

the support of the city’s Chamber of Commerce, and Melbourne lord mayor Robert Doyle In an interview with The Age earlier this year, Cr Doyle said he also saw the potential for other regional cities to adopt the system. ‘’Where you draw the line is a matter for a conversation between State Government and the local population, but cities that are getting up to 100,000 are very substantial cities,’’ he said.

Cr Doyle said the move to a directly elected mayor for Geelong will bring cohesion to Victoria’s second-largest city. ‘’You are directly elected so you are expected to govern for the whole of the city. It is marvellous for a city like Geelong,� Cr Doyle said. “The difference is a directly elected mayor does no deals with councillors. You have a mandate directly to the people of the city.� Premier Ted Baillieu

says a directly elected mayor of Geelong, will make it no longer possible for political parties to determine mayoral appointments, away from the glare of public scrutiny. Mr Baillieu’s description of the current system ‘’where councillors and political influence are used to appoint a mayor, without input from residents,’’ applies equally to Bendigo as it does to Geelong or anywhere.

“It would give back to the people of Bendigo the right to choose who will lead our community�

Our choice THE Weekly believes a simple populist vote for a mayor alone could lead to political parties pushing and funding some candidates, creating a disadvantage and a conflict of interest.

structure are asked to elect nine councillors to serve four year terms. It would be a simple change for voters at the same time to also nominate one of the candidates as their preferred option for mayor. That person would then serve a four-year term as elected mayor.

“You are directly elected so you are expected to govern for the whole of the city.�

Time for change THE current system sees the mayoral position up for grabs each year, chosen on secret ballot by the councillors. This raises the prospect, every year, of the best candidate being potentially cast aside because of a backroom deal. Such situations do not represent the best interests of the ratepayers, or the community. Interestingly, the push for change in Geelong was led by the Committee for Geelong, with

its mayor, thanks to an election pledge from Premier Ted Baillieu, and every city in Australia larger than Geelong has already made the change. That puts Bendigo, and our cousins in Ballarat, next in line. As it works now, voters in the City of Greater Bendigo’s new three-ward

In parts of NSW, this system leads to council stalemates and corruption. The Bendigo model the Weekly is suggesting makes it harder to rig the vote, or to elect a singleissue candidate.

Tell us your thoughts

It means a person who is already popular enough to win a seat in their ward, can also be elected mayor, by all voters across the city If you lose your ward, you cannot be mayor. It would allow for

both parochial issues and council-wide issues to be put in focus and campaigned on. It would give back to the people of Bendigo the right to choose who will lead our community.

Bendigo Weekly – Friday, November 4, 2011

The movies provide the best kind of heroes, but in the real world, we’re sadly lacking ATTENTION world leaders: we might all be sheep to you, but watch out, we bite. True leadership is an inspiring thing, which comes in all shapes and sizes. Let’s face it, most of us have rooted for either the booty-avenging and bloodthirsty Russell Crowe in Gladiator, the junkie-madegood Ewan McGregor in Trainspotting, or “sh*t, the world really does revolve around me, doesn’t it?� underdog of Jim Carrey in The Truman Show. If you’re not a movie buff... lift your game, because these are the best kind of heroes: magnificently flawed, relatable, with more issues than the Australian Government, but you have to admire them for their bravery to overcome the odds. And who wants an even tempered, blue-eyed and

BEN CAMERON ON LIFE

blond-haired hero anyway? Unlike the movies, there’s a leadership vacuum in the real world at the moment. When our own Prime Minister bumbles from one doomed policy to the next, rogue despots are flushed out of drainpipes and an elderly blue rinser comes across all heroic for simply catching a tram, we’re clearly crying out for inspirational leadership. It’s probably why the average Aussie looks to footy for illumination; while paradoxically, seeing how quickly absolute power can dissolve. The AFL season 2011 will be remembered not just for a stale serving of Meatloaf,

but why youth policies can sometimes extend to coaches too. In the space of a few months, footy’s old firm of Neil Craig, Dean Bailey, Rodney Eade and eventually Mick Malthouse, felt the sharp corner of a magnetic whiteboard. It can be an even quicker kill in politics.

the notion that if you’re blessed with the opportunity of leadership and influence, you should always try to use it for the good of the human race. When I was 18, my own personal Gaddafi was my supermarket boss. This six foot six sociopath enjoyed ultimate power over his little realm (that is,

really taught me how not to behave as a functional human being, cheers big fella�. At least he was committed. Admittedly, to being a total douchebag, but he worked hard towards a clear and obvious goal. But then there was Gary, a former South Australian district cricketer who came to play at our local club, for

The point is both were leaders, and both left their mark, it’s just one used his position to intimidate, the other to inspire Last year it was Kevin Rudd’s career that went down the drain. This year Muammar Gaddafi was shot in one. Don’t get me wrong here, I was a card carrying Kevin 07 fan, but his story showed the tables can turn pretty quick. While Gaddafi proved

a few dozen pimply faced teenagers), and enjoyed terrorising the meek as much as he did drinking himself into oblivion every night. No doubt to numb the shame. But if I saw him on the street I’d say: �Maaaate, thanks for being such a pr*ck for all those years , you

sadly, just one season. With elite skills in cricket, sportsmanship and selfdeprecation, him coming to an isolated town like Mildura, was like signing the Dalai Lama as a club motivational speaker for the summer. He could have said something like: “Now Ben, I want you to replace your

Kookaburra bat with a wet fish, and use rolled up newspaper for pads�, and I would have only asked “the midweek or Saturday edition, Gaz?�. Unlike my tyrant of a boss, who believed arrogance and mental abuse were genuine qualities, Steve preached self-belief, respect and never giving up. Well, until he swerved to miss a kangaroo driving to work and hit a tree, but that’s another story. The point is both were leaders, and both left their mark, it’s just one used his position to intimidate, the other to inspire. We need more leaders like Gary. So remember, if you’re ever put in charge of a flock, be hard but fair. These kind of sheep have long memories. Just ask Gaddafi.

FOODfossickers How does your garden grow? AT the beginning of spring, we gardeners were keen to get our veggie gardens up and growing and looking forward to the fruits of our labours come summer. To get those plots started, Keith MacDonald of MacDonald’s nursery shared his tips for a no-dig garden with us. So how are the veggies progressing? Following Keith’s suggestions, I planted onions, parsnips, carrots, broccoli and spinach and sat back to wait for my crops to come in. Everything is doing really well but the broccoli quickly produced little side florets and sadly, the next day they turned into yellow flowers instead of nice, crisp green broccoli heads. After asking around the veggie patches I discovered this

problem is not unique to my plot. A quick Google search produced an answer courtesy of the Burke’s Backyard website; “To stop broccoli going to seed and dying, continue to feed the plant and harvest the stems. The plant will continue to put out side shoots. If the heads of broccoli are allowed to flower the plants will seed and your production will cease. To keep plants growing strongly feed every month with Dynamic Lifter. ” I admit to neglecting to feed my broccoli so we may have to eat spinach instead this year. Garden lovers should not miss the beautiful Bendigo gardens open this weekend as part of the Open Gardens Australia Scheme. See page 10 for details. - Vicki Harrington

BROWSING in one of her favourite bookshops – Book Now in Bendigo – Kaz Cooke became absorbed by descriptions in old “ladies’ encyclopedias” about the complicated treatments for various ailments. “So many of them finished with, ‘the patient will recover … or die’”, she laughs. While she says it would be fibbing to credit Bendigo, therefore, with setting her on the path to her latest and greatest book, it did help. And she’s also hoping women in places like Bendigo find Women’s Stuff both entertaining and helpful. “I hate the way so much stuff is Melbourne or Sydneycentric,” Kaz says. “And I hate the way the concerns of women are presented in the glossy magazines, not really about mental and physical health things.” Women’s Stuff is the fourth in Kaz’s series about what it means to be a female.

The out-offices I FIND it amazing that in Australia we have so many descriptive names, both polite and less so, for what we now regularly refer to as the toilet. Reflecting back to Victorian times there were numerous appellations for the place that everyone had to use at various times throughout the day. We also have to remember that the facility we use today is far removed in regards to placement as well as character, from what was the norm at the time when the North Sandhurst State School no 1267 was constructed back in 1873. The school, according to one source, was sufficiently large to accommodate up to 1000 pupils, although when the children moved into the new weatherboard building, the enrolment was 236. All these youngsters and their teachers needed to make use of that certain facility. Toilets were frequently referred to as outhouses, sometimes they were called the pan house, alternatively the lavatory and surely there are many more names that can come to mind. For the practical reason of odours, the outbuilding was located a distance from a residence

through. You can’t take it for granted you’re going to get there.” Through his work with The Whitlams, Freedman has earned his rightful place in Australian music history, mainly through 1997’s monster hit No Aphrodisiac, off breakout album, Eternal Nightcap. Its significance was crystallised by Triple J fans earlier this year, when it was voted the country’s 17th best-loved local release. “That was a very pleasant surprise,” Freedman says “I think that album worked because it was actually written over the course of about 12 years. “It was all about my 20s. People listened to it in their 20s and it became a soundtrack for a few people. “And you don’t forget those years.” Freedman splits The Whitlams years into two distinct periods, each with their own vastly different highlights. For the pre-Eternal Nightcap days, where boozy road trips were commonplace, it was all about simple pleasures. “Driving up and down the New South Wales north coast in a bus like Priscilla Queen of the Desert was our signature period,” Freedman says. “It was like The Partridge

I hope it’s a cheerful listen.” Australian Idle is not all beer and skittles; Freedman puts the issues of encroaching old age and expected ma-

turity under the microscope (“friends getting a bit crook... and blokes trying to hold on to their youth”). “Lyrically it’s pretty truthful,” Freedman says. He’s not one of those who pine for the years gone by, however. On opening track Old Man, he sings “I want to be an old man”, but without a trace of sarcasm, or the trademark Freedman cynicism. “That was about having a few friends that are very sick,” Freedman says. “It was a way of saying, I really do want to be an old man. “It’s an achievement just to get through, and you need to remind yourself and count yourself lucky if you have got

Family, but filthy. “We were disgusting and drunk and crazy and wild and stupid, we had a wonderful time in patches.” Then there’s the ARIA Award winning era. “That was really quite an achievement in a musical and business sense,” Freedman says of the Best Group, Song of the Year and Best Independent Album trifecta. Did the 200,000-plus seller of Eternal Nightcap set him up for life? “It gave me the chance,” he says. “I used to say I hope it takes as long to get to the bottom as it takes to get to the top.

“But The Whitlams was only six years old when I got that award, luckily it’s taking a little bit longer to get to the bottom from the top. “Otherwise I’d have been down in the bottom again by 2004. “But we’ve managed to keep peddling.” While Australian Idle is a lot sunnier exercise, it still contains a Whitlams’ trademark: a tune with a darkly comic twist. Misty is his attempt at an antipornography song. “But it turned out a little more humorous than I meant it to,” he says. “It ended up about a sad old bloke in a pole dancing joint.”

So, does Australian Idle represent Freedman’s happiest period in some time? “That would be pretty difficult, I’ve had a bloody good time,” he says. “I’m terribly more relaxed... and I call it Australian Idle because I’ve learnt how to smell the roses. “I mean nothing beats being seven years old and playing centre forward in the Under 8s, you’d never have more fun than that, let’s face it.” Tim Freedman and The Idle plays Castlemaine’s Theatre Royal on Friday, November, 25.

By ROSEMARY SORENSEN

ASK Neil Athorn why the National Swap Meet in Bendigo has become such a big and successful event and his answer is surprising. First and foremost, according to the president of the Federation of Veteran, Vintage and Classic Vehicle Clubs, it’s the undulations. “The shape of the Bendigo showgrounds, the way it undulates, it’s not daunting,” Neil says. “And there’s a friendly atmosphere, too. Bendigo is very welcoming to the invasion of visitors.” A third reason for the success is the proximity of the event to Melbourne. Improvements in the road, and the shorter travelling time between Bendigo and Melbourne has meant more visitors (about 20,000) but it has also gradually focused attention on the Saturday. Many interstate stallholders are packed and gone by lunchtime Sunday, but trading on Saturday continues well into the evening. When gates open at the Exhibition Building on Holmes Road at 6am next week, there will probably be several thousand people lined up ready to hit the ground running, fossicking for that 1923 Buick carburettor they need for their pride and joy, rummaging among old catalogues and car magazines for the missing edition that will finally complete their collection. There will be plenty of time during the day to catch up with mates they

haven’t seen since the last Meet, swapping yarns, kicking tyres, admiring the sheen on one of the historic Chevolets which are this year’s special display. But the crack of dawn is the moment when the real enthusiasts do their thing. And Neil will be there, checking among the 1598 stall sites to make sure all is well. National Swap Meet changes a little every year, but the essentials stay the same. Neil, who is also secretary of the volunteer team that runs the Swap Meet, estimates it’s now the fourth or fifth largest in the world. Although not much

swapping takes place these days (it’s most straight selling), it is still all about old engines, “anything from the era, tools, oils, tyres”, Neil says. “It’s got to be car-related,” he says, although it’s motors really, since tractors, bikes and even ancient mowers are all part of the panoply. “You get people who want to use it as a flea market, but it has to be connected to vintage (pre1918), veteran (to 1930) and classic (at least 25 years old) cars.” Neil calls the 10,000 members of the 103 historic car clubs across Victoria adherents of the “movement”.

Neil is disappointed the traditional roadside line-up may not be there this year, although there’s a for-sale area for used cars (any age) inside the show, on Sunday. “It used to add to the atmosphere,” he says. “Maybe there could be a facility given to them. Instead of taking it away, they (the council) need to put in an option for people to privately sell their cars. “We’ll be watching to see how it works this year.” Bendigo National Swap Meet runs on Saturday, November 12 from 6am ($10) and Sunday, November 13 from 7am ($5), at the Prince of Wales Showgrounds in Holmes Road.

complement the National event in Bendigo are “good for the movement”, he says. “Old cars need to be protected. “Our Swap Meet is really the biggest museum that Australia has got. “People come from all walks of life with a common goal, which is to protect the history of veteran, vintage and classic cars.” This year, one of the changes visitors to the Swap Meet will notice may be more availability of nearby parking. If council sticks to its new rules, parking your car on the road and putting a For Sale sign up will attract a fine.

The Government of Victoria is implementing a Bushfire Buy-back Scheme as part of its commitment to implement all the recommendations of the 2009 Victorian Bushfires Royal Commission Final Report. In its Final Report, the Royal Commission noted that landowners in extraordinarily high-risk locations have little option but to rebuild if they cannot sell and move on. “But if they rebuild the risk to life and property returns; if they sell their land to someone else who then rebuilds the risk is merely transferred to someone else. Were they able to sell their land to the State, ‌, they could resettle elsewhere, and the problem of the risk would be redressed.â€? The Commission recommended that “the State develop and implement a retreat and resettlement strategy for existing developments in areas of unacceptably high bushfire risk, including a scheme for noncompulsory acquisition by the State of land in those areas.â€? The Bushfire Buy-back Scheme (the Scheme) has been developed to implement this recommendation. Eligible properties will be determined by the following criteria: 1. Owner occupiers whose principal place of residence 2. was destroyed by the Victorian bushfires of early 2009, and 3. who have not commenced rebuilding, and 4. A site is not available on the property that will enable a replacement dwelling to be located at a distance greater than 100m from forest vegetation, and that vegetation adjoins a large area of forest such as a National Park, State Park, State Forest or private plantation. The Government is seeking feedback from potentially eligible landowners on the proposed approach, application process and timing of the Scheme, and will hold Information and Consultation Sessions in regional locations in November and early December. These landowners will receive a letter from the Bushfire Buy-back Project Manager with details of the Information and Consultation Sessions. Letters will be sent to the property address. If you do not receive a letter, you can either send an email to bushfirebuyback@justice.vic.gov.au or call (03) 8685 1314 for details on how to register. If you are not a landowner whose principal place of residence was destroyed but would like to attend an Information and Consultation Session, you can register as above however you may be placed on a waiting list. Participation in the Buyback Scheme is voluntary. Properties will be identified as eligible and owners of those properties can decide for themselves whether they are interested in selling. If a property is eligible for the Scheme, and the landowner and Government agree on the sale, the Government will offer to acquire the land. Private information about property owners gathered during these Information and Consultation Sessions will be used to inform the Scheme and will not be made public. Information on the proposed Bushfire Buy-back Scheme is available on the Department of Justice website: www.justice.vic.gov.au/buyback. If you are unable to access the website, you can email bushfirebuyback@justice.vic.gov.au or call (03) 8685 1314 for further information.

A bicycle collector’s passion - Part Two TIM STIrLINg was drawn to Moulton bikes after staying with a friend who has a huge collection of these unique bicycles. Together they used to compete in many long distance AUDAX rides together and every time Tim stayed at their home, he would always be planning to purchase an older style Moulton. At a Bendigo Swap around 15 years ago, another cycling friend had a 1965 Stowaway Moulton for sale. This type of Moulton comes apart in about two minutes and is very convenient to transport and store. The person Tim bought this Moulton from had actually ridden it around Turkey. Tim restored this cycle and rode it many kilometres on rides up to 100km and has since sold this one to another Bendigo cycling enthusiast. Since his first purchase, Tim has collected nine Moultons, including five of the Stowaway models (16 inch wheels), a Mini complete with 4 speed Sturmey Archer gearing and a Midi (both with 14 inch wheels). he has owned a very rare Stowaway model, but swapped this one for a Moulton Pashley uni cycle that he could never master! But his favourite model is a late model (1984) Moulton AM7. AM represents the initials of the originator Dr Alex Moulton, while the 7 represents 7 speed gearing. This type of design looks more like the Sydney harbour

eddie barkla Bridge than a bicycle due to the amount of small lightweight aluminium tubing used in its construction. These style of Moultons have also referred to as the Spaceframe Moultons. Tim purchased this machine from a cyclist in Ballarat, who in turn had purchased the AM7 from the Isle of Wight in the UK and provided Tim with the original owner’s name. Tim made contact with the original owner and he forward-

It has been great fun spinning along on a small-wheeled bike among a group of riders on conventional road bikes. he also raced his AM7 on several occasions in the Sunday morning Vets races. The gearing on the AM7 is comparable to a road bike even though the wheels are only 17 inches in diameter. This is achieved by having such small sprockets, as small as nine teeth, a feat not even available on current road bikes. When Tim began collecting these machines, he wrote to Sir Alex Moulton asking for his autograph. Sir Alex was only too pleased

“Tim has ridden this bike over 200km in a single ride” ed the history of the bike from the day it left the factory in Bradford upon Avon, near Bath. Tim has ridden this bike over 200km in a single ride, which included climbing Mount Alexander twice and Mount Tarrengower, and marvels over the smooth and comfortable ride provided by a Moulton, due to the front and rear suspension. No soreness even without a great amount of training for long distance rides. Tim has ridden most of his Moultons on AUDAX rides from 50-200km, even the smaller models.

to forward this to Tim, who has been a member of Moulton Bicycle Clubs, both within Australia and the International Division. The Moulton experience has been great fun, the design of the Moulton has created great interest for Tim and those who have seen him out riding. With today’s busy lifestyle, being able to ride long distances with such a small amount of training has suited Tim intensely. Looking forward to seeing you on the road soon, god willing.

The Bendigo Spirit must start playing four quarter matches if it wants to challenge the WNBL’s top teams, star recruit Deanna Smith said earlier this week. Smith, with 18 points and five rebounds, along with Tess Madgen (21) and Kristi harrower (20) almost brought the Sydney Flames’ undefeated run to an end, in a gripping 81-79 loss. however a poor second term, where the Spirit were out-scored 30 points to nine, forced them into playing catch-up basketball. Smith said four quarter efforts were the key to improving their 2-3 start to the season. “We have to put together 40 minutes, and at the moment we’re not doing that,” Smith said. “We had a great start but we really let ourselves down in the second quarter... after that we’re chas-

Your horoscope

0411

Aries (Mar 20 - Apr 19):

Cancer (June 21 - July 21): Activities involving learning or teaching are especially favourable now. Pay attention to new people you meet and what information they tell you. You are likely to encounter one who can help you find the next step in your career/work. Organising files and papers so you will be ready to make a new beginning is also favoured.

Libra (Sep 23 - Oct 22):

Taurus (Apr 20 - May 19): Venus, your ruling planet, enters the 8th sector and will remain there through Nov. This week is one of sacrifice of your resources. After that, the rest of Nov. suggests favourable influences and opportunities concerning gifts or other financial resources that come through other people.

Leo (July 22 - Aug 21):

Scorpio (Oct 23 - Nov 21):

Good fortune and good news come your way this week. The areas of positive omens are via the internet, people at a distance, the law, education, publication and/or travel. These probabilities are the result of effort you have made in the past. You are in favour with many now. Romance, however, may prove disappointing.

Gemini (May 20 - June 20):

For the next two months you will want to experiment with and try on multiple points of view. You probably will be taking “polls” among friends and associates. Your capacity for objective thinking grows during this period and it is generally a good time to discuss relationship issues with partners and close associates.

This is a fairly routine week for the Lions. Most of your activities will go as planned. Keep everything backed up as you approach Nov. 8. You may have nuisance problems related to high tech equipment. Expect the unexpected at that time.

Virgo (Aug 22 - Sep 22): Mercury, your ruling planet, moves into the sector of life related to children, recreation, personal creativity, and romance. Your attention will be focused in these areas through the end of the year. Beware of setting plans in stone, because Mercury will retrograde on Thanksgiving and cause you to reverse decisions.

Your ruling planet is Venus, goddess of love and the arts. “She” moves into a new sector now through the end of Nov. Your attention will be drawn to parties in neighbouring areas and with those of your usual environment. Those with siblings may enjoy improved relationships through this period.

Capricorn (Dec 21 - Jan 19):

Life concerning romance and children continues to be favored by a Jupiter trine which lasts through March, 2012. Do not follow the temptation to manipulate or take control in these areas or you will meet resistance. Maintain faith that things will generally flow in your direction.

Aquarius (Jan 20 - Feb 17):

You have poured on the energy and now you are bringing a project to its end. You may feel exhausted and burned out. Don’t listen to the internal critic. He/ she always gets noisy when you are fatigued. A week of rest will do wonders for you.

At the beginning of this week your energy is high and your social life favorable. You have invitations from everywhere. Be careful not to go over the top with promises and self-expectations. Toward the end of this week there will likely be a droop, sort of like the day after Christmas. If you avoid going too high then the drop will be minimal.

Sagittarius (Nov 22 - Dec 20): Both Mercury and Venus enter your sign this week. Venus, goddess of love and beauty, will be travelling “with you” through Nov. Her presence gives you an air of poise and people will simply like how you look. Mercury is a long term visitor, beyond the end of this year. Communications of all types will be prominent.

Pisces (Feb 18 - Mar 19): It is possible you will be feeling hurt and disappointed over a situation with a loved one. People just don’t always respond to us as we wish. Sometimes they are distracted by life situations of their own and are unable to appreciate what we offer. If a friend seems oblivious, try not to take it personally.

Emu Valley Cricket Association – Division 1

Axe Creek plays on

Bowlers stay right on target as rain stays away WE woke on Saturday to gloomy weather but luckily the rain stayed away and all games got started on time with the bowlers right on target, and no team able to muster more than the 150 West Bendigo have set Axe Creek for victory. It could have been a lot less if not for Anthony Medhurst (48 not out) and Glen Wallis contributing 42. For Axe Creek, Travis Nolan claimed four wickets and Ben Hunter three, including a hat-trick, to lead the bowling. Axe Creek will resume this week at 3/37, with still plenty of work to do. Spring Gully could only manage 127 against Golden Gully with Shaun O’Shea the

star with the ball capturing 6/25 off 18 overs. But you can never underestimate the depth of Spring Gully as they fought back late in the day to have Golden Gully in trouble at 6/55. United are in the best position of any side after Day One, dismissing Emu Creek for 114 with skipper Alex Collins capturing 5/62 and Frank Mc Carthur (44) the best of the Emu Creek batsmen. They resume this week, needing another 14 runs to take first innings points with five wickets in hand. Marong would have been pleased to dismiss last year’s grand finalist Mandurang for just 143 with Richard Murphy

FIGHTERS: Peter Stepien bowls for Spring Gully at the Ken Wust Oval. and Dean Cosgriff claiming three wickets each, and only Matt Giri (32) showing any real resistance. But at stumps Mandurang have the upper hand with Marong slumping to 7/35 by the close of play. In our final game of Round Three, Maiden Gully dismissed Sedgwick for just

110 with Scott McKenzie (20) top scoring, and David Becker taking 3/8 from 11 overs with eight maidens, and Hamish McCartney following up his five wickets on debut with 3/29. But Maiden Gully still have quite a bit of work to do when they resume this week at 4/40.

Player of the week Hamilton has what it takes THIS week’s EVCA Sportspower player of the round was another close one but Shane Hamilton of Emu Creek just edged out Shaun Makepeace from Spring Gully. ‘Hammo’ made 131 not out and took a catch against Axe Creek... although from what we hear that batsman might have been a tad unlucky as Hammo wasn’t having the greatest day taking catches. Unfortunately for Makepeace, the game against Maiden Gully was washed out so he couldn’t add to his stats that went with his 132 from the week before.

Sandhurst coach tells of ‘contempt’ STRATHDALE-MARISTIANS have paid the price for a lack of respect, new Sandhurst coach Harry Hart said earlier this week. The Dragons will start the second day of their Weeroona Oval clash needing just 43 runs to claim an upset victory, and break an 11 year hoodoo against the Suns, who were bowled out for a paltry 129 on the back of handy spells from Elias Bowe (3/18), Quinton Bentley (2/23) and Mathew Pask (2/20).

“Maristians came out with contempt, and tried to smash us off the park,” Hart said. “Apart from Ben DeAraugo, the rest of them played like millionaires.” Hart said his team’s approach this Saturday would be about batting their full quota of 85 overs. “We have to show the competition we can bat out each day we play,” he said. Hart said 12 weeks spent on the fundamentals of fielding over

the pre season was beginning to pay dividends. “When I took my first session, I reckon I’d not seen worse from a senior squad,” he said. “I was really pleased how the boys stuck to the game plan and didn’t drop their bundle.” With a focus on fielding and good body language, the Dragons have made a solid start to the season, with a score of 9/302 against Eaglehawk in Round Two, before rain washed the chance of play on

the second day. Hart singled out Dylan Gibson, with scores of 44, 146 and 12 so far, as a Dragon who had begun to combine talent with application. In other A Grade action, Golden Square are chasing Strathfieldsaye’s 191, White Hills need to make 245 to beat Bendigo United, Huntly/North Bendigo are 2/27 chasing Bendigo’s 173 while Eaglehawk are 3/154 after play was shortened to 60 overs due to rain.- Ben Cameron

Bat’s the way, Kyle Making a hundred is a cricketer’s dream, but two in a single day is batting nirvana.

Bendigo’s a major player THE Melbourne Cup may have been won, and lost, just, but Bendigo is bracing for an influx of sporting events to be held at the city’s grounds and venues. Before the end of 2011, Bendigo will play host to two major sporting events – the WM Loud Bendigo International Pro Tour tennis and, two weeks later, the National Schools Basketball Championships. It will be the third year the tennis tournament has been held in Bendigo with Australia’s top tennis players competing in the week-long event. Then, eight days later, more than 1500 young basketballers will arrive in Bendigo to battle it out in the National Schools Basketball Championships. For five days competitors, organisers and

support crews will eat, sleep and play in Bendigo – bringing an enormous economic boost to the community. It will be the second year running that Bendigo

We actively

seek quality events has hosted this national event. City of Greater Bendigo Major Events manager John Rossi said the city’s reputation as a community capable of successfully hosting these large events was gaining momentum. “We actively seek quality events to utilise Bendigo’s infrastructure and heighten awareness of the Bendigo brand,”

he said. “Our recent success with the World Snooker Championships has turned the spotlight on Bendigo as a major player in the major events sector. “And of course, this complements the publicity generated by the Bendigo Art Gallery’s White Wedding Dress and the Art of Couture exhibitions and previous Archibald Prize displays all stand us in good stead when it comes to having the infrastructure and facilities required to host major events. “The fact that our community is only a two-hour train ride from Melbourne and with the upgraded Calder Freeway, it really does put us in serious contention for event organisers from throughout Australia,” he said.
