FIRE fighters have warned Bendigo’s outdated and undersized fire station is putting lives at risk. Only three of the five fire trucks can fit inside the main shed, leaving two constantly open to the elements. Bendigo’s CFA station has a rope and confined space rescue kit, but no specialised truck to put it on.

CFA station outdated and too small

Loading that equipment onto a truck can take up to 20 minutes, delaying call outs. Firies have also questioned why there are still three types of hose couplings, with the inclusion of each before a callout adding to more delays. There are also problems inside

the station. Firies said the building was built for four people, and there are now up to nine there at any one time. Uniforms and other clothing cannot be stored effectively, forcing firies to take equipment home. With only two showers on site,

The Weekly look at the local real estate market

City on the TV screen By CHRISTINE McGINN

BENDIGO will feature in a new television series showcasing the nation’s best homes. Channel Seven’s Australia’s Best Houses visited Reuben Beazley Builder’s award winning home The Monaco this week. The series visits aesthetically pleasing and unique homes to uncover the secrets behind the very best in architecture and design. RBB’s sales and marketing manager Deb Beazley said they were “very proud� of the accomplishment. The episode is set to air in April with the time yet to be announced. A NEW fleet of businesses will move into a shared showroom in the heart of Bendigo. Bendigo Curtains, hi-light Bendigo and Crimsafe are set to open their doors on High Street under a plan at council. The former Audi Centre Bendigo site has been sold to new owners with amended proposal plans for the tenants to take over the space. Signage is set to be placed on the front of the building and a signage pole to be erected.

The site has been subjected to various plans over the years and council is yet to approve the final plans. HOME buyers will be able to secure their slice of Golden Square with a four-hectare residential development on the market. The 56 lot YourLand subdivision will be sold in two stages with each slice ranging between 424 square metres to 725sqm. The 17 stage one lots are on sale now with prices starting from $154,000. The estate views are believed to become “a hallmark of the estate�. YourLand director Mark Erskine said the development was carefully planned to ensure an aesthetic appeal and residents’ safety. “The two basins either side of the entry will create a bridge feel and will be an entry statement with a bold use of the words The Last Piece,� he said. Particular tree species will be planted together to define each precinct in the development, ensuring cohesion and serenity throughout the development.

Fears wi-fi plan will delay coverage

By ANTHONY RADFORD

PREMIER Denis Napthine’s Bendigo wi-fi “thought bubble” was not lobbied for by any local authorities or interest groups. Dr Napthine detailed plans for a five-year free wi-fi trial in Bendigo last week, but the first thing Greater Bendigo council or digital lobby group iBendigo knew about it was when it was announced. Both groups confirmed they had not lobbied the State Government for the trial, unlike in Melbourne, where the idea was pushed for months by the local council. Member for Bendigo Lisa Chesters said she feared the trial would hold up the rollout of the more important NBN.

“This wi-fi plan is just a thought bubble,” she said. “I am concerned about the impact it will have on infrastructure for the whole region. “Bendigo is more than just the CBD. We don’t want to

Dr Napthine said the initiative would expand broadband connectivity to central Bendigo. “This will be a great opportunity to bring Bendigo into the 21st century,” he said.

lic transport hubs and tourist attractions for the next three to five years.” Deputy Premier Peter Ryan said if implemented, the wi-fi trial would benefit tourism. “Locals and tourists visiting Bendigo will soon have a consistent wi-fi experience enabling them to share their experiences of regional Victoria including local tourist hubs with family and friends around the world,” he said. “Providing strategic wifi hotspots ... will encourage community uptake of digital technologies and the development of new applications will see huge benefits in rolling out more public wi-fi networks across the state.” Both council and iBendigo said they supported the plan.

This will be a great opportunity to bring Bendigo into the 21st century see people leaving homes and businesses in Eaglehawk to come to the CBD for internet. “This thought bubble may impact the delivery of the NBN into the suburbs of Bendigo and towns like Heathcote and Raywood.” Ms Chesters said the Federal Government was also unaware of the wi-fi announcement.

“The modern cities of the world have public access wi-fi because it is a modern communications system. “It is a way people link to the world and link to each other. “The initiative aims to pilot fast, reliable and free wi-fi services in central Bendigo, in and around publicly owned infrastructure, including pub-

MITCHELL Street will be closed to traffic between Pall Mall and Hargreaves Street on Sunday as part of the bus stop redevelopment. The existing road surface will be removed and new asphalt laid as part of the Greater Bendigo council’s $3.8 million redevelopment of the street. Council Presentation and Assets director Darren Fuzzard asked motorists to avoid Mitchell St and seek an alternative route on Sunday. “In line with our previous commitments, we are attempting to minimise the disruption caused to traffic by conducting these works on a Sunday which is usually a quieter day in the CBD,” he said. “To minimise the time taken to complete these works and to assure public safety it is however important that we close the road to traffic during the works.” Mr Fuzzard said as part of the ongoing works the entry into Hargreaves St from Mitchell St will also be closed from next Tuesday, March 25 for six weeks to install new kerb, footpath and a new landscaped area. “Motorists will still be able to enter Mitchell St from Hargreaves St during this time and will also have access from Mitchell to Hargreaves streets during the Easter period,” he said. “The temporary bus stop located in Mitchell St between Hargreaves and Queen streets will remain as is during these works. “Traders will continue to be kept informed on how work is progressing and the nature of the impact they can expect week-to-week. “A project site office located at 34 Mitchell Street is staffed by the project’s Construction co-ordinator Brett Quarrier between noon and 1pm each day has also been set up to assist traders and the general public with any queries.”

Art class by the book

DRAWING on 20th Century works, a new style of art classes are making a splash at the library. Emerging and established artists can attend the latest initiative Art Classes @ the Library, to explore their creativity through various mediums. Designed for artists of all skill levels, the classes allow students to express their creativity and expand their knowledge of art. Local artist and organiser Karen Ward said the classes would introduce people to the “art of our time”. “I might be offering art history and starting with the Belle Epoque, but my aim is not to live in the past, but to use the past to understand the present,” she said. The classes will also discuss both historic and contemporary art in the art studio and history classes. “I am passionate about art and art history. I believe that art matters and that art is good for the soul and

good for our society,” Dr Ward said. Aspiring artists will practise and discuss 20th Century art in relation to current artworks. Itching to get back into teaching, Dr Ward hopes her mini art school will help locals understand and perfect their art. “I see my mini art school as one more alternative for people to learn how to express themselves and develop their own unique vision of the world,” the former La Trobe university teacher said. Foundation drawing classes start on April 29, from 9.30am to 12pm, the advanced drawing classes from 1pm to 3.30pm and art history from 6pm to 7.30pm. Foundation painting classes kick off on May 2 from 9.30am to midday with advanced painting classes from 1pm to 3.30pm.

“It’s the simple things (like couplings) that are potentially the difference between life and death. “There are different fittings on different trucks, so we can’t just plug them all in at the same time. “Realistically, we can only send two trucks out at one time, safely. We don’t have the right amount of people. But we work with what we have.” Mr Harris, a firie for eight years, said more State Government funding was needed. “We have five trucks in Bendigo and two permanently sit out of the station,” he said. “The trucks (all five) are constantly going out but they are

Instead, Dr Napthine gave this statement inside the function. “In terms of the CFA, under this government, (they) have received significant additional money,” he said.

Construction builds Bendigo’s wealth

By CHRISTINE McGINN

NEW data has revealed Bendigo’s construction industry contributes about $922 million to the city’s total economic output. According to REMPLAN research, more than $260 million comes from the residential building construction sector. The Residential Building Construction Economic Analysis gave estimates about the economic contributions of residential building construction in terms of output, employment, wages, salaries and value-added. The data found 6.7 per cent of locals are employed in construction with an additional 659 people employed in residential building.

The analysis discussed ways the industry can adapt and meet the requirements of the city’s housing sector. Greater Bendigo council Strategy manager Trevor Budge said the data confirmed that a strong and adaptable residential construction sector was

growth also has flow-on affects to the wider Greater Bendigo economy. Residential building construction in Greater Bendigo makes a greater relative contribution to the region’s annual output compared with that of other regional cities Ballarat and Greater Geelong.

From 2001 to 2013, the number of residential building approvals increased 16 per cent crucial to the city’s future development. “From 2001 to 2013, the number of residential building approvals increased 16 per cent, the majority of which were new houses,” Mr Budge said. “The result of this rapid

“To encourage and accommodate development, it is important local industry meets this demand with high quality, affordable and diverse housing options.” Urban Development Institute of Australia board member Damien Tangey said

the residential development sector would need to shift its mindset to ensure the city’s growth. “Greater Bendigo will experience significant demographic change in the next decade – households are forecast to become smaller and we’re going to live longer – so local engineers, surveyors, developers, real estate agents, builders and others associated with the urban development sector will need to identify how they can work together to vary their housing products to meet these more diverse community needs,” he said. Council commissioned the research to understand the real value of residential building construction in the region.

HUNTLY residents are petitioning to install a safe pedestrian crossing on the Midland Highway. More than 160 signatures have been penned, in bid for a safe on-demand traffic lights to cross outside school hours. Petition organiser Kathryn Stanislawkski said there was significant community support for the crossing. “There is no safe place to cross the highway other than during school hours at the school crossing and, of cours,e we do this whenever possible, however outside of this time there is no safe place for us to cross,” she said. The mother-of-three said she experienced the challenge throughout the school week, trying to cross the highway. The Huntly Kinder Volunteer Parent Committee started the petition when they realised the need for a safe crossing place. Greater Bendigo councillor Peter Cox has thrown his support behind the petition. “We need to build suburbs for people and not for cars. While it is the major road those cars need to slow down and there needs to be a crossing for pedestrian so it’s safe for them,” he said. Although the State Government is responsible for the road, Cr James Williams agreed action needed to be taken. “Huntly is a very fast growing area and rapidly growing part of Bendigo. Very young families are moving into this area. The community need a safe way to cross the road,” he said. “People are entitled to feel safe as they cross those roads. It needs to happen sooner rather than later.” Ms Stanislawski said she was happy to leave the safe crossing’s location to the experts. “I’m happy for others to decide where it goes. I just want to have a safe place to cross the road,” she said. Member for Bendigo East Jacinta Allan has also offered assistance to the cause. “Huntly is a very popular place now, more families are moving in and there are great facilities here. You can understand why families and residents want a safer way to cross what is a very busy Midland Highway,” she said. Ms Allan said the issue needed to be raised now and not kept until the election rolled around. Huntly Primary School principal Craig Burnett said he was concerned for his students’ safety. “The amount of traffic around through the northern corridor in the Huntly area, has just grown expediently,” he said. “This is a dangerous road to cross.” The petition has been placed in the local IGA, post office and other businesses for people to sign. Locals can jump onto the Huntly Safe Pedestrian Highway Crossing facebook page to join the discussion. – Christine McGinn

and Sally Phillips

Jeff Brennan and his family with Karen Sutherland after the big run.

/ ; HELD in the magnificent Chinese Gardens with a night of absolute highlights, last Friday’s Bendigo’s Biggest Girls High Tea was a huge success. Event organiser Karen Sutherland said she didn’t think anyone attending would ever forget the look on local sporting identity Jeff Brennan’s face after he completed the gruelling 100 kilometre run from Echuca to Bendigo to raise funds and awareness for Ovarian Cancer. ‘’Everyone was just in awe of his personal achievement ,’’ Karen said. Other highlights included the guest appearance of Winter Olympian Jenny Owens, who had a personal story to tell of her

mother’s ovarian cancer battle. Also local sponsor Lisa Smith, and her sisters Kim and Sally had a moving story to tell of Lisa and her family’s journey dealing with the effects of ovarian cancer. A new innovation at this year’s event was to acknowledge and to provide a makeover for Barb Daly who was pampered for the day with lunch, treatments limo ride etc to acknowledge her plight. While final proceeds from the night are still being tallied, iIt appears that the fundraiser raised approximately $31,000. Monies raised from Jeff Brennan’s Run100 are still to be finalised. Karen said that the committee expects the event to grow in popularity as the feedback

from this year’s event has been extremely positive but most of all the business community has really got behind the fundraiser. Karen thanked sponsors Jools For Jim , Bendigo Health , Bendigo Weekly , Symes Motors BMW , NAB , Win TV & Jeff Brennan High Performance Coaching , Telstra Business Centre Bendigo & Make Your house a home, also the wonderful help of the committee members Jill Cantwell, Lisa Smith, Julie Batey, Clare Opie, and Keith Sutherland. Special mention to Bryan Coghlan for being our MC and to Jeff Brennan for his amazing effort in running from Echuca to Bendigo.

Mollison on the move

By CHRISTINE McGINN

Boot sale bonanza

UPDATED plans have been unveiled for a four-storey multiuse development in Bendigo’s CBD. The unique development on the corner of Mitchell and Mollison streets will feature seven apartments, three businesses and two offices. The complex will house two and three-bedroom residential apartments ranging from 126 square metres to 173m2. The apartments are designed with open-plan living and a private balcony with views of the city. Two offices of 304m2 and 473m2 will be on the first floor. The ground floor will draw in visitors and has space for three businesses to set up shop. Masked in a facade veil, the complex blends the century old construction on the site with a modern twist. Developer spokesperson Scott Jackman said the complex would encourage a greater street presence. “Hopefully this becomes a real landmark with a practical and functional purpose,” Mr Jackman said. “It will reinvigorate and en-

YOU never know what you will find at a boot sale, and your next big chance comes on Saturday. Quarry Hill Primary School is having a “huge” car boot sale on Saturday running from 8am to noon. The aim is to raise much funds to buy new books and readers for the classrooms. Parents and friends association president Kasslea Shaw said the school has grown in numbers but the books have not. “We will have more than 25 stalls of people selling their jumble and handmade things,” Ms Shaw said. “There will be egg and bacon sandwiches to eat too. “It’s a big deal for the school.” The school will have a cake stall, and there are still vacancies for more spots if you fancy selling your wares. “We are happy to take money from anyone, they can sell pretty much what they like, as long as it’s legal,” Ms Shaw said. “It will be a real community fun day and chat too. If you want to find out more, or book a table, call Ms Shaw on 0429 652 857. Bookings must be made before 4pm on Friday.

A 50,000 litre tank, pump and electrical substation have resolved the issues with slight external adjustments to the building at council. Aware the design could be confronting, Mr Jackman said those behind the development

hoped Bendigonians would embrace its contemporary nature. “We hope if successful in the region, it might pave the way to contribute to reinvigorating the CBD and complement the wonderful stock of heritage buildings we are lucky to have,” he said. “Hopefully the city embraces the new architecture and that it can sit beside historical develop-

ment. “This is how we get a vibrant city.” The tender will go out next week with construction expected to start in April and completed inside 12 months. “We have wanted to take the risk as we believe in the future of Bendigo,” he said. “If it pays off hope that other land owners will follow.”

Slide into fun at Cooinda GREATER Bendigo council has invited all young families, especially those who are new to the city, to have fun and celebrate National Playgroup Week on Tuesday. Slide into Fun with Playgroup Victoria, a free community event, will be held at Cooinda Park in Mackenzie Street, Golden Square from 10am to noon. There will be fun for all the family with a range of children’s activities includ-

ing art, craft and sensory experiences, interactive activities with Fusion Australia, games with Kelly Sport, face painting, Animals 2 U animal farm and the opportunity to meet Goldie the Wonder Dog. Parents and carers will also discover what Greater Bendigo playgroups can offer their children and also find out about other local services including Mother Goose, Community Toy Libraries, Off to an Early

Start and Small Talk. Council’s Community Partnerships manager Suzie Mansell encouraged all parents of young children up to school age to attend the community day. “Families will receive information about the benefits of early learning and will be able to meet with local professionals and hear about the best programs to encourage their child’s development,” she said.

MUSCLE POWER: Members of e.motion21 on the move. Photo: ANDREW PERRYMAN

stepping up TODAY is World Down syndrome day and a local group is dancing to celebrate. e.motion21 is a small band of children with Down syndrome who participate in a weekly dance group. Rebekah Fraser is e.motion21 regional manager and sees a growth in the need for the classes. “It started in Melbourne, a mother with a Down syndrome child could not find a group that was suitable, so she started her own,� Ms Fraser said. “Now there are 200 in the group. “We started the Bendigo group in term

four of 2013 and we have 10 members.� The group works to the mantra of moving bodies, moving boundaries and has members from six to 15 years old. “We looking for dancers to age 40,� Ms Fraser said. “People with Down syndrome have low muscle tone, and that has to be taken into account. “Our classes run once a week on a Wednesday from 4.30pm to 6pm at Belle Etudes in East Bendigo.� Call Rebekah Fraser on 0409 190 991 for more details.

Helping at a classic ORGANISERS are gearing up for the annual Mother’s Day Classic fun run and walk to be held on Sunday, May 11. Based at the Beischer Park in Strathdale, Bendigo’s Mother’s Day Classic is a major fundraiser for breast cancer research, with all money raised going to the National Breast Cancer Foundation towards research and to help find a cure for the disease which claims the lives of about 2800 Australian women each year. Breast cancer remains the second leading cause of cancer-related death in Australian women, accounting for about 15.3 per cent of

all cancer deaths in women. In a few short years, the Bendigo Mother’s Day Classic has grown to become one of the largest events of its type in regional Victoria. In 2013, a record field estimated at 2000 took part in the Bendigo Mother’s Day Classic. The Bendigo event involves two distances, a four kilometre walk or run and a challenging eight kilometre run. Previous participants and anyone thinking about taking part in the Mother’s Day Classic is encouraged to go online for details on how to register, make a donation to the Mother’s Day Classic for breast

There’s also information on how to fill in a tribute card to wear on the day in memory of a loved one or offer words of encouragement to someone currently undergoing treatment. Organisers have also offered a general invitation to the community to come along and support all walkers and runners and join in the entertainment and activity taking place around the course throughout the morning.

BENDIGO man Ross Streeter was sentenced to 34 years jail on Wednesday for the double murder of his father and uncle. Mr Streeter, 30, pleaded guilty to murdering the two men at Natte Yallock in March last year. Honourable Justice Lasry said the case was “very unusual� as Mr Streeter said he had little memory of the incident and “no discernable motive� for his actions. “The facts of what you did however, demonstrate there was significant amount of pre-meditation for your actions, “ he said. “Murder is always an offence productive of human tragedy and heavy punishment.� Justice Lasry said the time delay between the murders indicated pre-meditation and was “dubious� about his memory loss.

But Justice Lasry said Mr Streeter was remorseful for his actions as demonstrated in his early guilty plea. Mr Streeter was sentenced to 20 years imprisonment for each murder with 14 years to be served cumulatively. Mr Streeter will be eligible for parole after serving 25 years. Without a guilty plea, Mr Streeter would have been sentenced to 37 years imprisonment and been able to apply for parole at 28 years. Mr Streeter has already served 369 days of the sentence.

Police are eager to return the goods to their owner or the goods may have to be auctioned in Melbourne if not collected. Anyone with information should call Crimestoppers at 1800 333 000. A WOMAN in her 40s suffered minor injuries after the vehicle she was in collided with a parked truck on Saturday night. The car collided with the truck on Averys Road near Tom Thumb Lake about 8.15pm. The woman was taken to hospital with minor leg and arm injuries.

ELEVEN statues were found down a mine tunnel in Golden Square on Saturday morning. Lions and a young couple figurine are among the collection

YOUTH living in nursing homes will share their experiences through a creative and personal digital story exhibition. Home to Home shows how youth have overcome their struggles in a revealing, participant directed display. Bendigonian Vicky Smith was 16 years old when the car she was travelling in hit a tree and left her in a coma for five months. Ms Smith moved to a Ballarat nursing-home in her youth but has returned to her home city to live with other young people with a disability. “I lived in a nursing home

for more than 20 years. They are no place for a teenager to grow up,” Vicky, now in her 40s, said. Summer Foundation chief executive officer Di Winkler said the exhibition gave an insight into the personal journeys of people in care. “This exhibition is a credit to the people who have bravely shared their very personal stories with us, in the hope that the community can be educated as to why the introduction of an NDIS is critical,” she said. “Anywhere, anytime, any one of us could acquire a brain injury and be faced with the prospect of entering

THE Festival of Cultures has been uniting people of all nationalities and talents this week. Music and live entertainment will be heard in Hargreaves Mall today to celebrate Harmony Day from 11.30am. More than 300 students from Kangaroo Flat, Kennington, Lightning Reef and Golden Square primary schools will put on a show to display our multiculturalism. The Seven Turns Dance Collective and the Dutch Australian Friends will

also put on a vocal showstopper. Locals are invited to join in the festivities at the free event, running until 2.45pm. Loddon Campaspe Multicultural Services general manager Noemi Cummings said the week-long festival highlights aspects of multiculturalism. “This year’s theme is ‘The World’s On Your Doorstep’. You don’t have to go far to enjoy the many cultures in our community,� she said. Roots, the multicultural arts exhibition, allows people to share their stories through artistic expression. “It’s the community’s work togeth-

er and that was one of the big goals, to bring groups of people together that don’t usually work together for an outcome that anyone can understand,� LCMS communications co-ordinator Shaun Mackrell said. “Art is a way of speaking when language is a barrier.� Roots will be on exhibit tomorrow from 9am to noon in the Allans Walk Artspace. A family fun day of entertainment and multicultural workshops for all ages end the festivities on Sunday. Details at www.bendigofestivalofcultures.org.au.

editorial

We must ask wi? IT seems local fire fighters need more than just red balloons and goodwill. Revelations in today’s Bendigo Weekly the city’s fire station is too small and too old are concerning. As far as vital services go, the fire station and the hospital are pretty much it. When the hospital was identified as being too old and too small the community rallied to fight for a new one. $630 million later we are twoand-a-half years away from realising that dream. Perhaps it is time to do the same thing for the Bendigo fire station. The main difference, of course, between the hospital and the fire station, is hardly anyone gets to see inside the CFA shed to see what the problems are. That is where we rely on station staff and firies to tell us what it is like. They are the experts. They are the ones who deal with the frustrations of having to move around

multi-million-dollar trucks every day to get to the right one. Comically, it sounds like something from The Castle. Our professional firies are the ones who have to deal with three different types of hose couplings, not enough showers and a lack of storage space for their clothes and uniforms. They also have to deal with a rescue kit that takes 20 minutes to fit onto the trucks. Across the state, they are concerned about not enough money being spent to fix these, and other, problems, and not enough personnel. Yet another thing they seem to share with the ambos. These men and women put themselves in danger almost every day to save our lives and our property. They deserve more than just a promise that these things are being looked at and, hopefully, corrected. It has to be questioned why something as important as equip-

ment for the CFA can take a back seat to things like a free wi-fi trial for Bendigo’s CBD. While teenagers will no doubt delight in being able to check their twitter and facebook for free, the benefits to Bendigo, Ballarat and Melbourne of a free CBD wifi service are not clear. In fact, the case to introduce such technology in Bendigo did not come from here at all. While welcoming it, Greater Bendigo council had never pushed for it. Nor had iBendigo, a group of local businesses and community groups who are pushing for greater digital technology in the town. It beggars belief that a government can look past a CFA station in need, to impose a costly tax-payer-funded “service” on the town, that has benefits that are yet to be highlighted. Perhaps we can put free wifi into the ambulances and fire trucks. twitter @weeklyeditor

pk Always put safety first with Peter Kennedy

LOOKING at THAT piece of footage of a female cyclist being hit by a taxi door in Melbourne earlier this week makes me cringe. Not just because of the impact, or the passenger’s subsequent behaviour immediately afterwards, but because the collision simply should never have happened. I cannot believe a bike lane exists on the inside left of a traffic lane designated for cars and hard up against the kerb. That’s so dangerous and poorly conceived it’s a wonder there’s not more “doorings” occurring on the streets of Melbourne every day. Even as a cyclist I initially felt sorry for the bloke who appears to have opened his door into the path of the female cyclist. I’m still at least slightly ambivalent about it. We are just so fortunate here in Bendigo that the designated bicycle lanes we do have are far safer than the one in that particular video.

And where we don’t have bike lanes, the roadway is usually wide enough to allow plenty of room for a cyclist and a motor vehicle to share the carriageway. In the absence of more dedicated bike lanes, (something even this keen cyclist is

to the left. There’s usually a very good reason for this, in that the bike lane is often littered with debris, broken glass, tree roots or other obstacles that make it dangerous to ride so far to the left. Any rider that rides so far towards the centre of the

There’s a shared responsibility of all road users to obey the law not sure we need), adopting a safety first principle is also a victor for common sense among all road users. Riding alongside cars in places like High Street in Kangaroo Flat or along Mitchell Street makes you look ahead to try and anticipate the actions of drivers, and pedestrians, who may not realise you are there. We hear and read a lot about cyclists who allegedly hog the road and fail to stick

road without good reason, and who subsequently irritates other road users, is quite frankly, an idiot. And while the relationship between cyclists and drivers might not always be perfect even here in beautiful Bendigo, one fact remains… There’s a shared responsibility of all road users to obey the law, to consider other road users and to always put safety first. twitter@peterkennedy23 pk@bendigoweekly.com.au

I

WAS ranting away on the ABC on Tuesday about fundraising. Poor old Fiona the host put up with it for a while and then changed the subject. But it has made me think, and I want to rant some more. We live in a state which champions the introduction of wi-fi to the CBD of Bendigo and Ballarat, yet has volunteer fire fighters and won’t give the ambos a pay rise. Methinks Dr Napthine’s funding policies are a bit off line. Sure, wi-fi in the CBD may be of some use but I think I would rather have a goodhumoured ambo turn up rather than check my status on facebook. As for the Country Fire Authority, the government should hold its head in shame, collectively. Volunteers risk life and limb protecting people and property and have to do it as volunteers. They have to fundraise in part for equipment and even then there is not enough. Bendigo is in the most ridiculous situation, the station is too small. Some of the vehicles are

housed outside, and the equipment shortage is dire. We can find federal money to send aircraft out over the Indian Ocean looking for crashed jets, but we can’t find it to look after live people in Australia. Who makes the decision on spending? You get the idea, it’s done by chance. Picture the scene. Man with map and dart, throws dart, lands on Bendigo. Throws another dart, misses ambos and firies and lands on internet. Decision made. The strange thing is wi-fi in the CBD is unlikely to save one life. Ambos already save lives every day and would continue

to do so with a wage increase, and most probably deserve one. CFA volunteers with correct equipment will save lives, wi-fi in the CBD will allow people to update their twitter. Please. Did you know CFA hose fittings are incompatible with the Melbourne Fire Brigade’s and New South Wales’ Rural Fire Service? Did you know that they are standardising gradually rather than all at once? This means each CFA unit has to have old CFA fittings, MFB fittings, perhaps NSW RFS fittings and the new, fix all, Stortz fittings. Is that not madness? None

of it the fault of the fire services, it lands squarely at the feet of the funding body, ultimately the State Government. Surely a universal refit of all fire vehicles to the new Stortz fitting is the way to go? Perhaps a payment for CFA firefighters is not out of the question either. Let’s hope the funding dart lands there soon, it may just save some lives and property. But hey, let’s put the wi-fi in first, perhaps it will garner more votes for a government which is staring down the barrel of a November election. Then again, it may not. Twitter@stevekendall1

Dear John, You have to remember with a young side to take it one game at a time. Stress to your players that you are rebuilding for the future, and have faith in their development. Give them positive re-enforcement and ensure that they do not stress about the results on the scoreboard, instead focus on the game contest by contest. Indeed tell them it’s about the game, not winning, and try not to choke. Dear Dotty, I was more than amused to hear the comments from Premier Napthine who said during the week that wi-fi “will be a great opportunity to bring Bendigo into the

Dear Colleen., I think you’re right. We’re being patronised here. The Honourable Doctor Premier Denis Napthine is pulling ideas out of his bottom or as the current vernacular would have it, he’s having a “thought bubble”. The Great Dividing Range divides us from Melbourne no more. Why, we even have cars and trains and planes and some of us even talk on the electric telephone. So come on old chap, give us a break. There’s more to Bendigo than the jockey club and the business council. Twitter: @DearDotty

Friday, March 21, 2014 – Bendigo Weekly

works of genius By Dianne Dempsey

This week the Bendigo Weekly took five visitors around the latest exhibition at the Bendigo Gallery, Genius and ambition, which coincides with the gallery’s new $8.5 million expansion. Their onerous task was to select just one favourite work from some 130 pieces and tell us why. The glorious and rich collection of 100 art works traces the history of the Royal academy of art, London, from 1768 to 1918. as well, Bendigo Gallery curator Tansy Curtin collected 30 works by australian artists who exhibited at the Royal academy during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

Beth silveira, a La Trobe education student A Mermaid 1900 (cat. no. 42) John William Waterhouse (18491917) “in Waterhouse’s oil painting he explores the dark side of mythology. i love the way this painting has a narrative, and that it is telling us a story. The mermaid looks very beautiful and peaceful. she is singing, she is a siren, luring sailors to their death.”

peter Thompson, iT consultant

samatha Barkla, graphic artist Bendigo publishing

Queen Victoria, 1876 (Marble) (cat. no. 37) Princess Louise, Duchess of Argyll (1848-1939)

The Lion Bas-reliefs, early 1770s (Cat no. 86) Giovanni Batistes Pyrenees (17201778) “This etching with engraving probably stood out for me because of my background as a graphic artist. i liked the black and white detail, that is so extraordinary. There is something very modern about the subject matter which is an imaginary prison, it is an image that reflects an interior nightmarish life.“

“i was intrigued when i saw this bust of Queen Victoria which was sculpted by her daughter Princess Louise. There was a recent documentary on TV about Victoria’s children and Louise stood out as a rebel. her mother was disapproving of her working as a sculptor and yet despite the constraints of the court Louise went on to do very skilful work. Victoria looks soft and motherly. Louise certainly didn’t try and do a number on her mother, no matter what the nature of the relationship was between them.”

Damian sherry, house painter To the Workhouse 1891 (cat.number 102) Emma Minnie Boyd (1858-1936) “i work on the basis that every exhibition should have a Boyd in it anyway. And Minnie Boyd was the matriarch of that distinguished family. This painting by Minnie Boyd stood out both in terms of the subject matter and the style. There’s no sirens or mermaids here; the couple depicted are on their way to the work house. The stark contrast between the white background of the snow and the dark, sombre figures of the couple emphasises the dire nature of their situation.” andrew perryman, the Weekly’s award-winning photographer The Sirens, 1892 John Longstaff (1861-1941) (Cat. no. 103 “The size and the luminosity, the whole dramatic aspect of the painting, first attracted my eye. Then when you look closely, you find figures, such as sirens faintly depicted in the top part of the painting, and what appear to be devils and lost souls in the lower part of the painting. You could also put yourself in the place of the sailor, at the bottom of the picture, or your eyes can go to the luminous part of the painting.”

Local food industry insider with Marika McMahon

Picnic time A

TOUCH of crispness in the air and rolling grey skies overhead failed to dampen the enthusiasm of a sell out crowd at Bendigo’s final event for the Melbourne Food and Wine Festival, the Food Fossickers Mad Hatters picnic. The rejuvenated Botanic Gardens was the perfect spot for this showcase of wine, cider, restaurants and food from our region. Whether you took along your own chair or picnic rug or perched on a pallet, it was the ideal place to spend a Sunday grazing on some fabulous offerings. The crowd seemed to be a mix of locals and out-of-towners, many appearing to use the opportunity to catch up with a group of friends. There’s something nice about so many people taking time out of their busy lives to spend an afternoon in the park. Another great reinforcement of the lifestyle we have here. While local wineries were loving the opportunity of a captive audience trying their wares, the Harcourt cider and apple juice for

the drivers was really popular and the Tooborac Hotel beer went down a treat. While the drinks were nice, food was the big winner. It was a great way to enjoy dishes from your favourite restaurants and a great opportunity to try dishes from other great dining places in our region. There seemed to be many parents with littlies in prams and pushers who seemed to be enjoying the talents of these chefs without having to arrange babysitters and designated drivers. The hard working Mad Hatter (whose voice would be familiar to many), kept the kids entertained although most kids took advantage of the proximity of the fabulous new playground in the gardens to burn off energy. The hawker style food stalls also helped fulfil one of Food Fossickers’ aims, trying to introduce fabulous local produce and more than fried products to children. It’s pretty exciting to see the school age

crowd chowing down on a wagyu in the park. As the day drew to a conclusion it was clear it was a resounding success, with patrons strongly voting for a bigger and even better version next year. In fact, that has to be the result of all Bendigo events in the now wrapping-up Melbourne Food and Wine Festival. Gone are the days of looking at that program and thinking there is nothing happening locally. Bendigo is now full of food events and a great food destination. However, while days like the Mad Hatter picnic are great to sample a wide variety of local producers and products, don’t forget that all of these are available for us around the year, right on our doorstep.

Planning bigger for next year T

HANKYOU to all picnic goers who braved the weather, packed their picnic blankets and chairs and joined us for a magical day at the botanic gardens. Also a big thank you to those who came to support but were unable to enter as tickets had sold prior to the day. Next year will be bigger and better and we look forward to welcoming you for another feast of Central Victoria’s best food, wine, beer, cider and coffee.  Please, email us your details, we would like to send out a special pre-ticket sales invitation so that you don’t miss out in 2015. On behalf of the committee, I would also like to take this opportunity to thank Bendigo Tourism, Bendigo Botanic Gardens and in particular, the curator Brad Creme, Events Bendigo, Audi and Tough Cookie Marketing as our major sponsors and support. This would not have been possible without them. Thanks also to b&b basil for sponsoring the floating stage, the crazy Chesters Band for keeping our toes tapping, Kelly Sports for keeping the kids active, all of our local producers and restaurants who embraced the event and delighted us with their quality produce. Thanks also to our delightful mad hatter Bec Chalmer; mad in so many wonderful ways. The school band from BSE college who entertained us, Bendigo Community Farmers Market for their solar powered mic system (available for hire), Bendigo Sustainability Group, the Bendigo Weekly, 2 Cool Ice, Coliban Water, Caterworx and last but certainly not least, the amazing people who volunteered on the day. Thank you!  We look forward to seeing you all next year, 2015. - Sonia Anthony, President Food Fossickers Central Victoria Inc.

Co-owner Cheryl Barker said that they first had to go through a competitive tendering process before establishing their second cafe. Along with co-owner Laurie Whelan, Cheryl said they were both pleased to be able to supply healthy, wholesome and fresh food to the Monash medical students. And the food, by all accounts, is much appreciated. The cafe is attached to the student lounge so the students can eat and relax, read and use the computer terminals. The food is typical of the Good Loaf’s fare: fresh salads, soups, pies, sausage rolls, focaccias and of course, sour dough bread which can also be bought to take away. The manager of the hospital branch of

that public spaces are friendly and open to the general public,� he said. “I’ve noticed a lot of the customers are very polite and they are also very busy,� Brendan said. “So we make sure the service is quick and accessible.� In her former role coordinating medical education needs for local GPs, Cheryl said that it was great for her to be able to catch up with so many friends. “ I also believe that philosophically it is appropriate that we provide healthy food, especially considering that we’re in a medical environment� The Good Loaf is situated in the Monash Building in Mercy Street and is open five days a week from 8.30 am to 4pm.

Lovelies on sass road T

HE Bendigo Folk Club plays host to some Canadian sass next Friday. The Good Lovelies made their first visit to Australia two years ago and as they moved around the country their reputation grew and went before them. By the end of the tour they were filling festival tents, concert halls and under grandstand folk club venues. Funny and upbeat, with just a pinch of sass, the Good Lovelies‘ textbook three-part harmonies, constant instrument swapping and witty onstage banter have enlivened the folk music landscape since they joined forces in 2006 for their first show at Toronto’s funky Gladstone Hotel.

Reyne rolls into the theatre

HEN James Reyne kicked off with Australian Crawl in the late 1970s he had no idea he would still be performing in the next century. Now 13 solo albums on, this veteran of the industry is on tour, including the Theatre Royal in Castlemaine. “At first I didn’t think what I’d be doing the next day,� he said. “I was at college and some of the others were at uni, one was working as a printer. We had to decide what we were going to do. “We had a meeting and decided to take it seriously. We worked out who would do the PR and the posters. It was a different world.� The band had been playing at school, and so on, and after they decided to make a go of it we landed up on Countdown. “We were all on the dole, when we started, there was certainly no money in it at first,� Reyne said. “We went to sign on and Centrelink said they saw us on Countdown and we had to pay the money back. “We had no money, but it made no difference.� Reyne said he has learned the trade a bit better now. “I love performing, I am certainly better at it than I was 30 years ago,� he said. “I actually call myself a singer now. “I write much better songs too.� Out of the blue this year, Reyne was awarded the Order of Australia Medal. “I was very chuffed, it came completely out of the blue. It’s really pleasing to be considered worthy,� Reyne said. Nowadays, Reyne sees a real mix in the audience.

JAMES REYN

“There are the loyal fans, but there are also the new musicians who like what we do and have done. At least a couple of generations.� “I write pretty traditionally, a verse a bridge and chords, so it’s pretty standard.� Reyne on tour is where he wants to be, having no real affinity with studio technology. “Technically I am an idiot, I even need help knocking up a demo. I like the writing and construction of songs, but don’t really get too much from being in the studio,� he said. The tour features songs selected from throughout his career - over 20 albums representing an extensive catalogue, spurning 19 Top 40 hits (seven with Australian Crawl, 12 solo) and 10 Top 10 albums. “While I’m not inclined to get all nostalgic, it feels like the right time to go through this material and present it songbook style,� Reyne said. “The songs we’ve chosen are a lot of fun to perform – and it scratches my never-ending itch to tour, to play live.�

Saturday night dance: 8pm until midnight at the Spring Gully Hall in Spring Gully Road. Music by Adrian Holmes Trio, $9. Delicious home made country supper. Details: 5444 2953.

AYLIA Bell had a cafe in Inglewood for 25 years where she faithfully used Eucalyptus Oil Products. “They were fantastic for cleaning scruffy floors and all of the surfaces so I had real faith in the product,� she said. When Gaylia wanted to retire from the shop she decided on another less, time consuming business, so she and Jill Barker established The eucy Maids Cleaning Service . The women said they still use products from The Australian Eucalyptus Oil Company and find they are just perfect for cleaning houses. These products will be available for sale to clients. “I actually sold the products from the cafe in Inglewood for years to travellers

and tourists and they always came back to buy more,� Gaylia said. Gaylia and Jill started their new business a few weeks ago and clean houses, hand-overs and deceased estates. They also do general cleaning such as windows, ceiling fans, ovens and light fittings - all those tricky, messy jobs we like to avoid. The products they use are multi-purpose, and cover a wide range of surfaces from the bathroom to the more formal rooms in your home or office. Another big plus is that the eucy products are biodegradable, natural and environmentally friendly. The eucy Maids cover jobs from Bendigo to Inglewood. You can contact Jill on 0467 173 767 and Gaylia on 0459 520 115.

If you hire it for the day you can make as many trips as you like with it. A couple of obvious advantages here are that the skips are covered and so you are not in any danger of leaving a trail of flying rubbish behind you.

A welcome return for a true artisan

IVINE Hair & Body (formerly Pure Indulgence) conveniently located in Buckley Street, Bendigo, has undergone a recent rejuvenation and is now open for business under the watchful eye of Alana Nalder. Alana has more than 15 years’ experience in the hair and beauty industry as well as raising four young children and completing a nursing degree. “I really loved nursing but needed some flexibility regarding hours with a young family,� Alana said when telling the Weekly about future plans for Divine Hair & Body. Alana has kept a keen eye on the latest trends in the industry while still working parttime as a hairdresser at one of Bendigo’s better

known salons. But the temptation to work for herself proved too much, especially after her and her partner, Brad bought the heritage listed residence and disused salon. “Living right behind the salon has proved ideal and makes it easy to suit my clients requests for out of hours appointments,� she said. Divine Hair & Body caters for all your hairdressing needs and exclusively uses the luxurious kitoko range of hair products. Including their extremely popular paraffin free range of shampoos and conditioners, ideal for those with sensitive skin. Divine Hair & Body at 24 Buckley Street, Bendigo.

heritage matters

The Ironbark Chinese Camp g

uAn gong was the main deity to which the Joss House was dedicated, in what was termed the ironbark chinese camp, where thales is now situated. A photograph of the abandoned Joss House building of c1933, was illustrated last week. it should be made clear that there were a considerable number of joss houses within the camp, along with a small number of shrines. According to the late charles chew, who lived on the ironbark chinese camp site, there were seven places of worship in the area, including the shrines. not all these joss houses were as substantial as the one illustrated last week, or the surviving example that still can be seen and visited at Emu Point. charles chew lived near the railway line almost due west of the remaining Joss House. to the south of his modest dwelling was a Victorian Railway house occupied by the Hammil family, who were responsible for opening and closing the Finn Street railway gates when required to let the train to Swan Hill pass along the line.

Further to the north, tom Waters lived in a mud brick house, close to the gateway signal. in almost the same position as the main driveway into thales was where the main street of the ironbark camp ran into a t intersection. to the left and the right were the other joss houses. there was one joss house almost at the end of the main road. close to the intersection there was a water tap connected to a main. to be connected to the reticulated water supply was a real effort and not a priority for those dealing with these matters in time gone by. george Knight is one of the rare caucasians who pitied the plight of the chinese at the camp because there was no connection to the growing network of Bendigo’s water mains. Back in 1878, Knight acted as a spokes person for the chinese to alert the Bendigo community to the fact that the 300 or so residents of the camp were not to be forgotten. the nearest water main to the camp was about one kilometre away. to obtain water, it had

to be carried about 400 metres from an abandoned mine shaft and this water was quite brackish. little wonder that chinese hoteliers, shopkeepers and others had asked george to state their dire need for the necessity of life. Knight went on to argue that if a fire broke out in the camp nothing could be saved because of the lack of water. Another thing that george mentioned was that the chinese were prepared to pay to have the water pipes extended to the camp. in time, a water pipe was laid to the chinese camp, but it proved to be quite inadequate, as the diameter was relatively small and so when there was a major conflagration it was almost impossible to control. one of the big fires at the ironbark chinese camp occurred on September 23, 1887. According to a report at the time the fire started in the house of lin Keo and family, which was close to the centre of the camp. the buildings were all very close together and constructed from relatively light and highly combustible materials.

The practice of poulticing P

improved conditions: Businesses were rebuilt.

the flames spread quickly and it took some time for the fire brigades to arrive. About 70 houses were destroyed. the firemen acted quickly, to pull down some of the houses which created a break and allowed the fire to be brought under control.

the damage bill was estimated at about £5000. only 10 years after this first major fire there was another conflagration, soon thereafter much rebuilding was done. this can be seen in the above photograph, showing the main street and the businesses occupying the prime positions.

oulticing may sound like an ancient medical procedure but it is actually a way of fixing the common problem of salt attack on brick and stone heritage buildings. Salt attack is associated with damp and causes damage to bricks and mortar when soluble salts form crystals in the pores of the masonry. Repairs will only be successful in the long term if the salts are properly removed. Major restoration work has been carried out on the Queen Elizabeth oval grandstand but the salt-damaged brickwork at the front of the pavilion still needs to be fixed through poulticing. A paper pulp paste is applied to the brickwork to draw out the salt. When the pulp dries, it is removed and takes the salts with it without damage to the brickwork. the greater Bendigo council is funding the project under the guidance of its heritage advisor. – Megan McDougall

Winner of a week BOWLS action continued in Bendigo this week after Golden Square’s Bendigo Bowls division premiership win, with Bendigo Country Week in full swing. About 800 bowlers from all over the state converged on Bendigo, with pairs, triples and fours competitions on offer. More than $8600 in prize money was up for grabs during the week, concluding with the Herb Hesse Shield for triples to be contested on Friday to conclude the week. Square took out last Sunday’s BBD division one grand final with a thrilling five-shot win over Eaglehawk, to break a 51-year premiership drought. The premiership-winning side will face Moama at Rich River this weekend in the region final.

Sporting double at the QEO THE Bendigo Thunder and Bendigo Football Netball league will join forces this season to put on a Queen Elizabeth Oval double-header, when the BFNL takes on the Gippsland League on Saturday, May 24. AFL Central Victoria region operations manager Justin Abrams confirmed the move this week, which will see the Thunder face Melbourne University as a curtain-raiser to the senior interleague game. Gippsland will not field an under 18 side, and instead of playing an intraleague under 18 game – as occurred when Bendigo faced Gippsland in 2012 – the BFNL board has decided to involve the two-time VWFL North West Conference premiers in the day. “They’re not going to bring an under 18s side, and we have made the decision as

a board that we are not going to play under 18s,” Abrams said. “What we have got in place of that is a women’s game, so the Bendigo Thunder will take on Melbourne University. “It was fixtured as a Melbourne Uni home game but has been changed so they will play as a curtain-raiser which is great.” The league also announced this week a round three game between South Bendigo and Eaglehawk on Saturday, April 19 would be played at Harry Trott Oval in Kennington. South Bendigo are currently working through plans with council and AFLCV with a view to moving to the ground, currently solely used by the Bendigo Junior Football League. “It’s a long-term strategy, and the club is certainly

working through a plan for their future there. The way it was fixtured meant the QEO was unavailable, and created a great opportunity for the game to be played at Harry Trott,” Abrams said. “It’s exciting and is great for the club. Unfortunately there is no netball facility so the netball will still be played at the QEO, but it is a good step in the right direction.” The league also announced this week round eight would be indigenous round, held during Reconciliation Week. The centrepiece event will be Golden Square and Sandhurst’s clash at the QEO, in which both clubs will wear one-off jumpers designed by the winner of a competition. More information on the indigenous round jumper design competition can be found at www.aflcentralvic. com.au, entries close April 4.

CLOSE GAME: Avondale Heights just tipped out Bendigo at the John Cain Memorial Park, Thornbury.

Ballsy Bendigo By JOEL PETERSON

FC Bendigo coach Steve Martin said he was encouraged by the side’s start to its inaugural National Premier Leagues Victoria season, despite going down 3-2 to Avondale Heights last Sunday. Bendigo was 2-0 down in the second half before launching a stirring fightback, Amara Kromah slotting Bendigo’s first NPL1 goal through before playing coach Steve Martin connected on a Matthew Breeze corner for the equaliser. Unfortunately for the visitors, standout forward Opeksiy Khrapko put through a third for Avondale Heights with 15 minutes to spare, handing them a one-goal buffer that saw them through until the final whistle. It was not all doom and gloom for Bendigo though, with Martin saying the fightback showed Bendigo’s potential.

“It was certainly encouraging, given that we have only been together for a short time I was happy with how we performed and were able to not drop our heads and get back into the game,” Martin said. “It was our second time when we had played as a team, we’ve added some more players this week, and in regards to our combination play and working together I was pleased. “The experience of not having played together and that kind of thing did show up some small mistakes, but that will take time and I think having a week off has come at a good time for us.” The side will take the week break before tackling Whittlesea Ranges at Epping on Saturday, March 29. Martin said the side still had a way to go in terms of improvement. “The week off will give us more time to get together as a team, focus on what we need to do and keep build-

ing that chemistry,” he said. “We will continue to improve as the year goes on, there’s no doubt in that.” Martin, originally from Bendigo, said his main goal for the season was developing a style of play and foundation with which the club can move forward. “I’m not going to forecast a number of wins or anything like that, because I think if we can play the way we want to and keep improving the results will speak for themselves,” he said. “This program is great for building the pathway for younger players and players like myself who may have had to move away to play, and the link with the BASL clubs is as important. “Hopefully the community can get behind us, because I have no doubt that we will be doing good things in years to come with the group that we have, and how we have set the club up.”

Chasing a double From Page 40 Klemm agrees, saying that a strong start could be a catalyst. “We’ve done well against them in terms of restricting their batsmen, but haven’t been able to make too many big scores against them,” he said. “They have beaten us the last three times we have played and we know what they are capable of, but we need to all come to play on the day. “We haven’t done that too

many times this season where we have all played well, and hopefully this weekend the pressure can fire a few guys up.” Emu Creek and United will lock horns from 1.30pm at Club Court on Saturday and Sunday.

two new grand finallists this season. The QEO provided a bowlers’ paradise last year when Strathdale Maristians defeated Eaglehawk, and getting off to a quick start will be vital to both sides. In second XI, Eaglehawk faces Maristians at Weeroona, Golden Square and Bendigo United again lock horns in third XI at Canterbury Park, and in under-17 action White Hills faces the Suns at Tannery Lane.

New players boost ladies By JOEL PETERSON

CHAMPIONS IGA Bendigo Lady Braves coach Jonathan Goodman said he wants to see how his group comes together before making predictions on whether it can go one better than last year in the 2014 South East Australian Basketball League season. The Lady Braves roster had its first group training session on Tuesday night, with Goodman faced with the tough task of integrating five new players to the team in four days. WNBL players Alex Bunton, Chantella Perera, Rosie Fadljevic and American import LaSondra Barrett join Kerryn Harrington, who returns to the side after a year playing netball, as additions to last year’s side. Jane Chalmers and Lauren King will lead the returning contingent, along with Heather Oliver, Elise Strachan and young up-and-comers Caitlyn McLachlan and Molly Greetham. “I’m really excited about the group, I think we’ve put together a really, really competitive team,” he said. “We had our first session on Tuesday night with everyone but Rosie Fadljevic, who still has commitments with Townsville, but she arrived on Wednesday. “Being that we have a group with so many more outsiders, if you like, it’s about trying to build chemistry, and build chemistry quickly, which is the main challenge at this stage.” With so much depth on the roster and a marked increase in the size of the front court over last year, there will be no shortage of competition for the spots in the starting five. Goodman, who was announced as an assistant coach of the national under-19 women’s side this week, believes any one of his players could step into the starting group. “It’s a great situation to be in, as long as everybody is on board,” the second year Lady Braves coach said. “We’ve got a lot of talent and we can start absolutely anybody, our top eight players will be extremely strong.” Boom recruit Alex Bunton said this

WISE WORDS: Ben Harvey is chasing a title.

Coach backs a good year LEADER: Jane Chalmers. week that she is excited about getting the season under way against Brisbane at the Bendigo Stadium on Saturday night. “We’ve got a good mix, we have every position filled and have a good level of youth and experience as well,” the 195cm Canberra-born centre said. “It’s going to be a good first hit out for us, and I’m really excited for it.” After Brisbane on Saturday, the Lady Braves face the side that defeated them in last year’s SEABL championship game, the Kelly Wilson and Gabe Richards-led Knox Raiders. They then host Frankston, before travelling to Ballarat for a Wednesday night clash in round four and hosting traditional power Geelong in round five. “I think our first five games will be character building, a lot of groups have had at least the core of their group together but we haven’t really had that,” he said. Saturday’s game against Brisbane tips off at 6pm, with all spectators in attendance going into the draw to win a trip to Los Angeles, while entry is free for La Trobe Bendigo students.

AS he approaches what could be his last season as Bendigo Bank Braves coach, Ben Harvey believes he has a team good enough to win an elusive SEABL championship. Harvey has amassed an 85-35 record as coach since 2010, and has collected two conference titles but the Braves great is yet to win a national title. This week, when the Braves open their season at the Bendigo Stadium playing under the rafters from which Harvey’s number hangs, they will begin their assault on a title with a new-look roster. Imports Zack Atkinson and Dustin Salisbery form the spine of what Harvey believes is a side that can again contend for a championship, alongside newcomers Michael Vigor and Lachlan Urwin. “I’m really confident in the group we have, they’ve come together pretty well and although it has been an up and down pre-season in terms of results at training on Tuesday everyone was

focussed and ready to go for Saturday,” Harvey said. “Dustin and Zack have been through some ups and downs but they are enjoying themselves, (Vigor) is loving it here, and sometimes building a championship team is more than Xs and Os, and that‘s what we’re trying to do. “I feel we should have won a national title in the last four years and that still burns deep within me, but if we can play team basketball this season I think we can definitely have some success.” Unlike last year, that saw the team go on a long road stand to start the season, the Braves play six of their first nine games at home this season. Harvey said a first home win this Saturday night against Brisbane would be vital in seeing the club off to strong start. “The pre-season has been up and down, but you have to take the strengths and weaknesses out of the pre-

season and work on those,” he said. “At the end of the day they don’t remember whether you won four practice matches or lost four, as long as you can keep improving. “We still haven’t got Josh Wilcher, he won’t arrive until mid-April, so I feel like we won’t play our best basketball until the middle of the season but we need to start well.” As for his future as coach, Harvey said he had not given it any thought. “It’s a huge job, and if it was full time I’d take it on for sure. But I feel as though if you can’t give 100 per cent, you shouldn’t be doing it,” he said. “I’m enjoying working with PEAK Sports, and having a young family that is really supportive is great, but eventually it takes its toll. “I haven’t really thought about it though, I’m certainly enjoying coaching and I can’t wait until tip off at 8pm on Saturday and to get the season started.”

Chasing a double

By JOEL PETERSON

TWO years after finishing bottom of the table in the Emu Valley Cricket Association, Emu Creek will be gunning for back-to-back premierships in this weekend’s grand final against perennial powerhouse United. The Emus made a stunning return to form last season that took them all the way to the decider where they defeated 201112 premier Mandurang, and claimed the club’s first EVCA flag. United finished top of the table, and after a dominant performance with the bat that denied West Bendigo any chance of making the decider last week, are in peak form heading into this weekend’s game at Club Court, Strathfieldsaye. “Even though you go in with top spot and the rules favour you, especially in the conditions like last weekend, it is still an apprehensive time,” United captain Forbes Klemm said.

“All of the top four or five sides were really close and the results this year showed that, so we knew that West Bendigo would be ready and I was pleased that we were able to play as well as we did. “We’re under no illusion that Emu Creek are a really good side as well. We’ve made finals for a number of years now and

games that we probably shouldn’t have through the year which didn’t come back to hurt us luckily,” he said. “There’s blokes there that we’ve grown up with and have played a lot of cricket with and against, so there’s certainly a bit of a rivalry there.” Chamberlain, who came on board last year as

captain/coach and led the Emus to the premiership, said the match could go either way despite Emu Creek beating United both times in their matchups this season. “We match up pretty similarly, we are both evenly poised in both the way we bat and bowl,” he said. “It’s nice to have beaten them twice in the home and away season but come this weekend it is a completely different game.”

AS a new season starts for the Braves and Lady Braves, one coach is not keen to predict form at this point. - Stories Page 39
