Gippsland Water Dragons president Heather Watts is seeking a permanent home base for the club.
MEMORIES FROM A LIFE AT SEA PAGE 8
SALE GOES TO SECOND SPORT
Tom Parry GIPPSLAND Water Dragons are calling for a permanent home at the Port of Sale to ease their storage woes. The Sale-based sporting club’s plea comes after months of uncertainty regarding their future. Founder and president Heather Watts has been liaising with Wellington Shire Council for a home since the club’s inception. “We’ve been asking for somewhere to keep our equipment since before we even formed, but over the last 18 months, I have been working really, really hard with the port redevelopment committee, with council, (and) with different user groups,” Ms Watts said. According to Ms Watts, her initial communication with council was positive, with consultants engaged to liaise with club members and other groups who utilise the Port’s facilities.
CONSIDERING
HAIRDRESSING
“They came up with an initial plan - a draft plan, which actually had us on (the western) side of the Port, along with the Sale Boat Club - and at that stage, everything seemed to be going swimmingly,” Ms Watts said. “But then the draft plan changed, and they’ve decided they want all the boating facilities down by the rowing club.” The decision to locate the Water Dragons near the Ian Howard Rowing Shed has been made by council, in accordance with its Port of Sale Masterplan, made public in September last year. The plan envisages transforming the Punt Lane site into “an integrated multiuse facility” for the Sunday Market and watercraft groups. Ms Watts argues that the proposal is not in the best interests of the Water Dragons, nor council. “They’re pursuing an abstract concept that I’m not even sure is particularly practical, (or) that will actually answer
our needs at the end of the day,” Ms Watts said. “If we’re down there, they’re going to have to build another boat ramp, or a winch. “It seems like an unnecessary expense to me.” The masterplan does note that an additional boat ramp will potentially need to be built at the Punt Lane site. Ms Watts also bemoaned the lack of clarity from council, saying “even their new plan, it’s a concept plan - there’s actually nothing concrete as to what sort of space we’re going to have”. Presently, all equipment belonging to the Water Dragons is stored at Ms Watts’ property in Cobains, she is also responsible for transporting the Dragon Boats on a custom-made trailer. Her 10-kilometre journey from Cobains sees her tow the trailer through roundabouts and sharp turns, before unloading the craft - and the associated equipment in her car - at the Port of
Sale’s boat ramp on the western bank. With the club’s boats 15 metres in length and each weighing 300 kilograms, it is the only site in Sale from which the Water Dragons can launch and retrieve their craft. Additionally, the adjacent car-park allows Ms Watts ample space to position her car and trailer, and her members with plenty of parking options. As such, Ms Watts believes that having a storage facility on the western bank is the most practical and cost-effective solution, even if it’s only temporary. “I was told (by council) there was somebody that was allocated to the redevelopment project, and they’d be helping us look for temporary premises; they haven’t come up with anything,” she said.

Remembering Korean Vets Sale RSL will hold a wreath laying service tomorrow, honouring those who fought in the Korean War. Pictured at the RSL on ANZAC Day this year are Bess Yarram and Marin Tanzer. Photo: File
Martin Tanzer Sale RSL President IN the pre-dawn hours of June 25, 1950, the North Korean Army launched a massive offensive across the 38th Parallel into South Korea. The North Korean forces drove the Republic of South Korea’s (ROK) forces down the peninsula, capturing the capital, Seoul, within a week. On June 28, Prime Minister Robert Menzies committed Australian Navy assets to the Korean War, followed several days later by the Air Force No. 77 Squadron. On July 26, an Army battalion, 3rd Battalion Royal Australian Regiment (3RAR), was committed to ground operations in Korea. Only five years after the end of World War 2, Australians were again at war, and would serve for the next three years in the defence of South Korea.

By early July, RAN ships were escorting US troop ships to Pusan and RAAF aircraft were flying ground support operations over Korea. By late July, Australian troops were on the ground and advancing with other United Nations (UN) through North Korea. In late 1950, as UN forces neared the North Korean/ Chinese border, Chinese troops entered the war and immediately pushed back the UN troops. Mobile fighting continued until mid-1951, including the Australian involvement in the Battle of Kapyong in April 1951. On July 10 1951, peace negotiations began between the warring powers in the town of Kaesong. Negotiations were suspended in August after the building used was reportedly bombed. Talks did not resume until October, and from then on, were held in the village of Panmunjom. A static war began in mid-1951 and basically continued until the
ceasefire came into effect on July 27, 1953. The Australians’ reputation for patrolling and raiding from both the First and Second World Wars was further enhanced by the efforts of the men of 1RAR and 3RAR during the war. The armistice was signed at 10am on July 27, 1953. Sporadic fighting continued throughout the day, but as evening fell the guns fell silent. The armistice came into effect at 10pm and both sides withdrew two kilometres to form the Demilitarized Zone which still exists today. Australian Forces remained in Korea as part of the multinational peacekeeping force until 1957. Over 17,000 Australians served during the Korean War, of whom 340 were killed and over 1,216 wounded. 30 Australians become prisoners of war during the conflict, with one dying in captivity due to malnutrition and mistreatment. One of the POWs was also local man Harry Jacobs’ brother; Alfred. He survived his captivity and returned to Australia. Local people who served in Korea include: Harry Jacobs, Alfred Jacobs (POW), Peter Cerda-Pavia, Wally Fawkner, Ian Macdonald, Geoff Collins, Kevin Dollard, David Dollard (Killed In Action), Dennis Pearce, Ted MacKenzie, Don Wilkinson, Joe Wilson, Don Macleod, Harry Watson and Horace Madden. David Dollard was killed in action on November 17 1952 in Korea. He was 26-years-old. The Sale RSL will hold a wreath laying service on Korean Veterans Day tomorrow, (Wednesday July 27), to remember the sacrifice of all those who served in the Korean War. The service will commence at 11.30am at the Sub-Branch in York Street. All are welcome. Lest we forget.

Mask back on in schools as infections surge Tom Parry VICTORIAN school students and staff are being encouraged to wear face masks, following a change in advice by the state government. The updated Schools Operation Guide from the Department of Education, made public on Monday, July 18, recommends that students over eight-years-old wear a mask “It is strongly recommended by the Department of Health that face masks are worn in indoor settings, with face masks mandatory for those aged eight and over who are household contacts and attending school,” the guide reads. “This is because the wearing of masks is effective in reducing the transmission of COVID-19.” The guide goes on to say that it is “the department’s expectation that, through to the end of winter, students aged eight and over and all staff will wear masks when in class…” and that schools are not required to sanction students or staff for non-compliance. Gippsland Grammar is adhering to the recommendation, having implemented an indoor mask requirement for students from Year 4 to Year 12,
on the advice of Independent Schools Victoria. Acting deputy principal Justin Henderson said the requirement was about a shared responsibility to community health and wellbeing. “Advice to reintroduce masks has proved to be very effective in schools in which they have experienced local COVID-19 outbreaks,” Mr Henderson said “They have reported to ISV that within a few days of the institution of mask wearing, the number of new cases has fallen dramatically and remained low while the mask wearing was in place. “Similarly, the Burnet Institute found that the introduction of masks was the single most important control measure in bringing Victoria’s second wave of COVID-19 under control.” The updated advice comes amid a surging number of COVID-19 cases in Victoria, with authorities fearing a third Omicron wave of infections. As of 9.30am Monday, there were 71,081 known active cases across the state, 855 in hospital. Since June, there has been a 99 per cent increase in Victorians hospitalised with coronavirus, and a 47 per cent increase in healthcare staff having to isolate. In light of these figures, Victoria’s Acting Chief
Health Officer, Ben Cowie, is encouraging businesses to let their employees work remotely. This view was echoed by his federal counterpart, Professor Paul Kelly, in a statement released last Tuesday. “The Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC) has reiterated its advice on reinfection periods, testing and isolation, mask wearing, vaccine boosters and treatments and called on employers to allow work from home if feasible,” the statement read. “Employers should review their occupational health and safety risks and mitigations, and their business continuity plans. “They should consider the feasibility of some employees working from home, wearing masks in the workplace and support employees to take leave when sick. “I also encourage everyone to follow the recent advice of the AHPPC and wear masks when outside the home in crowded, indoor environments, including on public transport. “This is important to protect yourself and others.”

Dr Eden Mogridge, Director of Summit Health and Performance Centre.
With six local businesses, Sale has the secondhighest number of finalists, behind Traralgon with eight. The awards night is on Friday, August 26 at Federation University’s Gippsland campus. The 43 finalists across 11 industry and specialist categories will attend the gala presentation, where the winners of each category will be announced. The 2022 Gippsland Business Awards categories include Accommodation, Beauty and Personal Care, Business and Professional Services, Food & Wine Producers, Health and Wellbeing, Hospitality, Manufacturing/ Export, Mechanical Trades and Construction, New Business, Retail, Tourism Activities and Attractions.

We have such an asset here in the river, wetlands, lakes, and history.” Since establishing the Port of Sale Heritage Cruises, more than 32,000 passengers have climbed aboard the 112-year-old Rubeena to discover the bountiful natural wonders surrounding the City of Sale and learn of the region’s deep history. With the number of patrons boarding the Rubeena down 60 per cent following COVID, Mr Lewis completed the application for the 2022 Gippsland Business Awards hoping to attract more tourists to the Port of Sale Heritage Cruises and the Sale region. A first-time Gippsland Business Awards applicant, Port of Sale Heritage Cruises will join this year’s finalists at the gala presentation night. Mr Lewis hopes to add a 2022 Gippsland Business Award to the Port of Sale Heritage Cruises collection, alongside the 2019 Central Gippsland Business Award.
Port of Sale Heritage Cruises REPRESENTING the city of Sale in the Tourism Activities and Attractions category is Port of Sale Heritage Cruises, run by 80-year-old Alan Lewis. Mr Lewis moved to Sale in 1968, where he was city engineer, town planner and engineer for water supply at Wellington Shire Council until 1985. After retiring, Mr Lewis was keen for something to do, so in 2013 he bought the Rubeena from a seller in Lake Tyers and, with the help of his daughter Rachel, established Port of Sale Heritage Cruises. “I just wanted something to fill my time,” Mr Lewis chuckled. “I wanted to do something that would put Sale

Summit Health and Performance SUMMIT Health and Performance Centre was opened in August 2020 by locals Dr Eden Mogridge and Dr Mitchell Dowse. The company is a finalist in the 2022 Gippsland Business Award New Business category. Not long out of university and working at McMillian Chiropractic Centre, Dr Mogridge and Dr Dowse were eager to branch out and create a modern chiropractic practice that reflected their values, interests and passions. “I was only at McMillan (Chiropractic Centre) for a year and a few months. Dr Dowse was there for a year on top of that,” Dr Mogridge said. “One day, we were talking when our paths happened to cross, and we resonated with what each other wanted to do, what we thought was holding us back and what we were lacking, so we thought ‘why not do it while we’re young?’ “It was big; I didn’t expect to open somewhere when I was 24, and Mitch is only four years
older than me, so he was 28,” Dr Mogridge added. Opening a new business at the pandemic’s peak wasn’t an easy start for the young doctors. “Lockdown was challenging .. me and Mitch were able to continue working, looking after urgent-care patients only, but we couldn’t staff anyone else, and that was tough,” Dr Mogridge said. “It is so devastating to see some of the places which had to close their doors. I think we were very lucky because we are in health care, and that’s probably what it came down to at the end of the day.” Through the challenges and hardships, Dr Mogridge and Dr Dowse prevailed, and today, six members make up the team at Summit Health and Performance Centre. Dr Mogridge and Dr Dowse are chiropractors, and Summit Health and Performance Centre’s directors, who work alongside remedial massage therapist Jordan Frend, exercise and rehabilitation specialist Sarah Vranek, and occupational therapist Lucy Dowse. Amie Howard works in administration. “There are so many new businesses out there, so we are pretty stoked to even make it as a finalist,” Dr Mogridge said. “In our category, there is such an array of different types of businesses, so it’s not even like we are going up against other health care places.”
Elva’s Hairdressing ELVA’S Hairdressing is representing Sale in the Beauty and Personal Care category. In 1966, Elva Gannon established Elva’s Hairdressing on Foster Street. Following in her mother’s footsteps, Estelle Carroll began her career in hairdressing at Elva’s in 1997. Working through the era of baby bangs, butterfly clips, chunky highlights and pompadours, Mrs Carroll bought the salon from her mother in 2003. Elva’s Hairdressing is one of the longeststanding and operating hair salons in Sale. Highly rated across various internet platforms, including Google, Facebook and Word of Mouth, it does not surprise that this Sale business is a Gippsland Business Award finalist.

SALE and Maffra businesses have been named 2022 Gippsland Business Award finalists. Sale companies Motel 24seven & Apartments, Summit Health and Performance, Elvas Hairdressing, Scarlet & Grace, Port of Sale Heritage Cruises and Siesta Central Apartments, and Designer Cabinetry from Maffra, were the finalists. The Federation University Gippsland Business Awards are the leading business prizes in the region, highlighting the successful efforts of local Gippsland businesses. Gippsland Business Awards committee chairperson, Graeme Sennett, said following the cancellation of the 2020 awards and virtual presentation of the 2021 awards, this year’s face-to-face awards would be an “extra special” occasion. Mr Sennett said once again, Gippsland businesses had shown their ability to change and adapt in unprecedented times, with this year’s awards attracting a wide range of outstanding entries. “Never before have we seen such a diverse range of finalists,” he said. “Usually, a large portion of applicants are from the larger Gippsland hubs, like Bairnsdale and Traralgon. This year, we saw a significant increase of applicants from further away, from places on the outer rim of Gippsland. “The fact there were entries from every part of Gippsland shows how our small to medium businesses continue to grow and develop despite recent challenges.” Mr Sennett said it was fantastic to see small businesses persevere and succeed. “It is wonderful to know that people still have dreams for the future despite all the hardships they have been through,” he said. “This year, the judging process has again been extremely difficult, with many outstanding entries vying for finalist status. We have particularly been blown away by our New Business category, which attracted a huge field of entries, all of a high standard.” Mr Sennett said the Gippsland Business Awards allowed businesses to reflect on what they had achieved and what they needed to do to continue growing. “It is also an opportunity for businesses to recognise and appreciate their staff’s effort and, of course, promote tourism to the Gippsland region,” he said. “Overall, I think it is so important that we celebrate success, especially when there is so much negativity and bad things happening in the world.”

Saloon owner Estelle Carroll and manager Bree Shields, the leaders of Elva’s close-knit team of six, feel being finalists acknowledges their ambitions and achievements. “Our business is acknowledged in the business industry, not just in Sale or the hair and beauty industry,” Mrs Carroll said. Elva’s administration specialist Tegan Smith chimed in from across the room “We were also (Gippsland Business Award) finalists in 2018 as well,” pointing to the certificate on the wall. While Mrs Carroll and Miss Shields have high hopes to win this year’s Gippsland Business Awards, their focus remains making an impact in the hairdressing industry, particularly in training, development and creating more stylists. “We have a huge emphasis on employing apprentices, which we focus on nurturing and helping them grow throughout their training,” Mrs Carroll said. “In a broader sense, in our industry, there has been a skills shortage. “That is because there hasn’t been continuous training of new team members coming through, which is why we are really focused on implementing individual training plans and team training plans so that there is a clear training focus. “We are excited about having apprentices come through with their new enthusiasm, and to help them grow and develop in their career.” The lovely ladies from Elva’s will attend this year’s Gippsland Business Awards gala presentation night, looking fabulous no doubt.
Six years ago, upon returning home from a family holiday, the Clancy brothers had made an unexpected life trajectory. They would leave their current jobs and create a range of products using 100 per cent Australian ingredients, designed to delight the senses and take you on a real sensory experience. Just weeks before Christmas 2018, the first Scarlet & Grace products hit retail shelves. Fast forward four years, the Clancy brothers have moved out of their shed into a factory and opened a chic storefront, selling products to more than 150 retailers across Australia and New Zealand. But wait, there’s more! “Expansion to the UK is happening as we speak,” James Clancy said. “We’re expecting around October this year for products to hit the shelves in the UK and Ireland.” Scarlet & Grace has gone from a backyard business to an international supplier in just six short years. When the Clancy clan created Scarlet & Grace, today’s successes were merely dreams. “You always dream that (international markets and business success) would happen,” James said. “But when you start off in a small little town, you definitely don’t expect it to happen. “Especially not so quickly. “It is very exciting.” Being a family man with small children and a rapidly growing business, there is not always time for James Clancy to stop and smell the roses, so to speak. But, like all worthwhile goals in life, running the successful Sarclet & Grace poses its challenges. “It is hard to balance things at times,” he said. “When we are busy, it can be very difficult; long hours, little children. “But being a family-run business, with my wife April, my brother, his wife Kaitlyn and mum and dad, we all chip in where we can.” The Clancy clan are thrilled to be a 2022 Gippsland Business Awards manufacturing and export finalist. “Being a Gippsland Business Awards finalist is great!” James Clancy said.
“We’ve actually been finalists three years in a row now. “There are so many great businesses out there, and not just in manufacturing and exporting, that are doing amazing things, so to win would be excellent.”
course, being named a 2022 Gippsland Business Awards finalist.
Siesta Central Apartments
THE walls of Motel24seven & Apartments are replete with awards: 2019 Central Gippsland Tourism Business Award Winner, 2018 Loved by Guests Award, 2020 Traveller Review Award. All that’s missing is a 2022 Gippsland Business Award. With a 9.2/10 rating on Booking.com, spacious modern rooms fitted with large flat-screen TVs, a 24hr automated check-in kiosk, Netflix, free wi-fi and boasting a beautiful garden landscape, it’s no surprise that Motel24seven & Apartments are 2022 Gippsland Business Awards Accommodation finalists. John Seton bought the business in February 2016, and it came with a bad reputation. “It was known as the worst spot in town,” he said. “But I saw the potential, it is on a great bit of land, and the gardens are beautiful, plus it is right on the highway. You know what they say - buy the worst house in the best street.” Putting his handyman skills to work, with some outside help, Mr Seton transformed the once dilapidated highway motel into modern, comfortable, affordable accommodation. “We are always striving for new and better things,” Mr Seton said. “Since 2016, we have completely changed the place. New paint, carpets; we completely gutted all the bathrooms and started over; new beds, furniture, everything. “You have to stay updated, that is why we installed the 24hr automated check-in kiosk. We were the first place in town to offer free wi-fi and Netflix. “We really strive to be different and offer guests a comfortable, affordable stay.” Motel24seven & Apartments is a family-run business with John Seton at the head of the table next to his partner Anita Claridge and his parents, Colin and Helen Seton. “I am really happy to be recognised for this award,” Mr Seton said. “Being a Gippsland Business Awards finalist is a fantastic achievement for any business.”
Scarlet & Grace IS the third time a charm for Scarlet & Grace? After two years of being named a Gippsland Business Awards finalist, falling short each time, will 2022 finally see Sale’s best-smelling business take home a win? Local brothers James and Ryan Clancy founded the home fragrance and body care business in 2016. Scarlett O’Hara and Grace Kelly inspired the name Scarlet & Grace as James Clancy says they were two beautiful, encapsulating women, who led fascinating lives. Ryan and James Clancy grew up in a house abundant with beautiful, tantalising smells.
IN 2016, Sale brothers Tom and Richard Moulton played Russian Roulette with their professions, jumping ship from property managers to proprietors, purchasing Siesta Central Apartments on York Street. “As property evaluators, we saw the place had potential,” Tom said. “So we took the risk and have since completely refurbished what was an old, outdated motel into modern accommodation, leaning more towards service apartments.” Despite no prior experience in accommodation, leaving Catholic College and heading straight into their career in property management, Tom and Richard have indeed established themselves as one of Sale’s most outstanding local businesses. The Siesta Central Apartments are one of the 2022 Gippsland Business Awards Accommodation finalists. The first-time Gippsland Business Awards finalists are up against Sale accommodation business Motel24seven & Apartments, South Gippsland’s Chapter Barn & Studio, Yarram Holiday Park, Beachcomber Holiday Units and Sandbar Motel - Lakes Entrance. Tom Moulton is overjoyed to be a 2022 Gippsland Business Awards finalist. “It is fantastic,” he said. “We are just so fortunate to have such a great team here, especially after COVID, and for us being a finalist highlights, acknowledges and rewards the effort everyone has put in.” The care and dedication the Moulton brothers have exercised to building their Siesta team is bleedingly obvious as the group radiates connection and contentment. And for Tom and Richard, their efforts in providing the best working environment for their staff has paid off, with online reviews raving about Siesta’s wonderful staff and, of

Maffra intersection petition received
FOLLOWING a meeting between Wellington Shire Council officers and those in the Maffra community, a petition containing 133 signatures was presented to council requesting improvement of traffic and pedestrian safety at the intersection of McLean and Boisdale Streets. The petitioners have expressed concerns about incidents that have occurred at the intersection over the past decade. The petition recommends the installation of more relevant signage, rumble strips or other safety measures that would bring more awareness and slow the traffic down in the area. They have also noted that traffic flow has increased dramatically over the years, with new estates opening, school buses and local residents going about their day, a busy restaurant at the intersection and also being the main road used to attend the Maffra Cemetery. The petition was received at the council meeting on Tuesday, July 19. Resident Wilhelmina Coleman addressed the meeting to express her support for the petition, noting that she has lived very close to the intersection for 10 years, and had witnessed four accidents on that corner. “The last one was Mother’s Day of this year, and two cars were completely written off. One was a Mercedes with an airbag that saved the
COUNCIL BEAT lady’s life,” Ms Coleman said. Ms Coleman’s petition uses a number of words to describe the intersection. “Almost all of the people I approached commented at how they knew of someone or they themselves had witnessed how dangerous that particular intersection was. Using words like ‘speedway, dangerous, tricky, frightening and poor visibility’ to describe how they felt about it,” Ms Coleman said in the petition.
Yarram Traffic Management Plan on Nightingdale Street Petition Received
COUNCIL received a petition with 13 signatures from the residents of Nightingale Street, Yarram, requesting that a traffic management plan be implemented for the street to allow visitors to access the mural being painted on the Yarram Water Tower, while still allowing for safe access and egress for the local residents, their children and visitors. Also of concern is that Nightingale St is a
single-lane unmade road and a number of the children who live in the area use the street to access school by bicycle or on foot. Details of the petition note that South Gippsland Water has approved the addition of the mural to the water tower, with plans to promote it as a local attraction across Gippsland and surrounds. Residents believe the increase in traffic will create congestion as there is no off-street parking along the length of Nightingale St for vehicles, which is the greatest concern, additionally, there is currently no space for buses or caravans to park or turn around. Yarram resident Chris Barclay addressed council to outline the concerns from the perspective of the residents.
Mustons Lane Heyfield Special Charge Scheme Approved
COUNCIL carried the motion to proceed with the proposed construction and sealing of Mustons Lane in Heyfield. Based on survey results, the level of support for the scheme exceeds the 60 per cent minimum level required under the ‘Residential Road and Street Construction Plan’, and therefore, it is
considered that there is sufficient level of initial support for the proposal. Mustons Lane is located within a rural-residential area of Heyfield and currently consists of a formed (but unsealed) gravel pavement of approximately 5-6m width and 4.8 km in length with irregular surface drains. The road is primarily a rural-type road, with an unsealed section extending for 1530 metres length of the road, commencing from Licola Road and westwards along Mustons Lane. The road is maintained by council. A formal investigation of the proposed Special Charge Scheme was commenced following ongoing property owner concerns and complaints in relation to council’s maintenance grading regime, which applied to the roads. The initial work undertaken by council in response to these concerns included the preparation of concept designs and an estimate of costs. Property owners were advised that, if implemented, the Scheme would provide for the construction and sealing of the road to a 6.2 metre width, with kerbing at intersections, and improved road surface drainage and driveway crossovers.
Not-for-profit Barrier Breakers goes into liquidation
A GENERAL meeting of members of Gippsland mental health advocacy group, Barrier Breakers Inc. last week (Monday, July 19) voted to place the not-for-profit agency into liquidation. The association’s board had recommended this course of action as the agency was considered insolvent as it could not meet its creditor’s demands. Barrier Breakers has provided free advocacy services to people with a mental illness in Gippsland since its formation in 2006. Founder and long-serving director, Derek Amos,said he was deeply saddened by the decision, but accepted the association had no choice but to close its doors.
“The association had pleaded with governments for funding over the years, but little support had been provided,” he said. “It is a tragedy that two of the region’s major mental health NFP agencies have been allowed to wind-up their services within the same week.” The other agency, Within Australia, went into voluntary liquidation about two weeks ago. Mr Amos said that the association’s board had taken steps to transfer its clients to another agency in order to protect their consumers interests. “The last thing a person suffering from depression needs to know is that their needs are no longer being looked after,” he said.
“We have gone to great lengths to ensure that their interests are protected and that every possible endeavour will be made to gain a favourable decision for them. “Our deep concern is for our long-term creditors, who have stood by us over the years. “We are truly sorry that inaction by governments will mean that they too will pay a penalty for that loyalty.” Mr Amos said that the region’s loss of now two pioneering mental health agencies will deal a serious blow to many families in Gippsland. “Perhaps we should be excused into thinking that the relatively recent Royal Commission into
Victoria’s mental health system was going to improve people’s access to good mental health outcomes,” he said. “We believe Barrier Breakers made a valuable submission to the Commission and we thought the state government’s response to its findings by accepting all the recommendations was very heartening. “However, it leaves us with a sour taste in our mouths, for the region to be now be faced with the complete loss of two advocacy agencies, who had a tremendous record of providing help to many thousands of Gippslanders.”

Pandemic Declaration Accountability and Oversight Committee chair Suzanna Sheed.
Photo: Contributed
Reports show findings
THE committee set-up to review restrictions under the pandemic orders tabled two reports last week, as part of its ongoing review of orders made by the Minister for Health. The Pandemic Declaration Accountability and Oversight Committee’s report reviewed the Visitors to Hospitals and Care Facilities Orders, and the Quarantine, Isolation and Testing Orders. Since the pandemic declaration came into effect on December 15 2021, there has been many changes to restrictions under pandemic orders, which have gradually eased since then. The joint investigatory committee found that the orders were compliant with the requirements of the Public Health and Wellbeing Act 2008. In addition, the committee raised concerns with information relating to limitations of rights under the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act 2006, and sought clarification from the Minister. The committee has recommended that the state government should improve the way it communicates pandemic orders to the public. The committee found the legalistic and complex language of pandemic orders has made them difficult for the public to interpret and understand, risking the pandemic orders being misunderstood and increasing the likelihood of non-compliance. “Many of the pandemic orders place a significant burden on the Victorian community, in this case, restricting the ability of loved ones to visit those
in a hospital or care facility,” committee chair Suzanna Sheed said. “It’s important we ensure the minister’s approach to issuing pandemic orders strikes the right balance between protecting public health and reducing the burdens placed on Victorians.” The Review of the Pandemic (Visitors to Hospitals and Care Facilities) Orders found that restrictions on visitors to hospitals due to government mandates were in place from March 2020 to April 2022, aside from a brief easing at the end of 2020. In this time, the majority of patients were not permitted any visitors at all, as the categories for exemptions were narrow. The committee found that some key stakeholders such as hospitals and care facilities were not informed of major changes to pandemic orders ahead of public announcements in the media. They also did not receive official communication from the state government until close to when the orders were to come into effect. It also found that in some instances, public statements and announcements made at state government and agency press conferences differed from the detailed changes made to pandemic orders. This led to confusion for key stakeholders and the general public when official advice received from the state government differed from that announced in the media.
The committee found the effects of the COVID19 pandemic itself, as well as the public health response, contributed to Victoria’s mental health crisis. According to the reports, pandemic orders which require levels of seclusion, such as isolation, quarantine and visitor restrictions, significantly contributed to a decline in mental health across the Victorian population. The Review of Pandemic (Quarantine, Isolation and Testing) Orders recommended the Minister for Health publish as an addendum to the Human Rights Statement, an explanation on why the orders do not limit the right to privacy under the Charter of Human Rights and Responsibilities Act. It also recommends the state government continues supplying two free rapid antigen tests per week to Victorians enrolled in primary and secondary schools, as long as testing requirements are still in place. The Pandemic Declaration Accountability and Oversight Committee was set up late last year under new provisions of the Public Health and Wellbeing Act. It will continue to review the pandemic orders as long as the pandemic declaration remains in place. The reports are available on the committee’s website.

The actual writing was easy.” Ms Sipirok said the club was very encouraging towards her husband. “They said they liked his style,” she said. Mr Rose hopes that readers sit down and

take the book in. “I think those over the age of 40 in particular will understand all the references and get what I’m talking about in the book,” he said, “It’s definitely a reader’s book. “You don’t just skim through it. “I’m telling you, you don’t. And if you got a sense of humour, it’s got a lot of laughs.”
“And it’s very educational too,” added Ms Sipirok. The title refers to the Tonto character from The Lone Ranger. “I was 15 years old during my navy traineeship and there were 200 of us boys. There was a cinema in the gymnasium we watched once a week. What was very popular at the time was The Lone Ranger,” Mr Rose explained. “Tonto would ride into town and you knew he would wind up into the slammer. Always. “So when we would hear the line ‘go into town Tonto and see what you find out’, 200 boys would stand up and yell ‘don’t go into town Tonto!’ at the same time. “And it made me think about when I went to sea. Every time I went ashore, I got into s**t,” Mr Rose laughed. The ‘hero’ spoken about in the book is Mr Rose’s stepfather, Robert Wynne. “He had been in the Navy as well and he was on the same ship I was on, donkey years ago of course,” Mr Rose said. “My mother met him after the war. My biological father had disappeared in the war, so (my stepfather Robert Wynne) was the hero I needed as a seven-year-old kid. Mr Rose said he doesn’t like to refer to Mr Wynne as his ‘stepfather’. The word ‘step’ is not used at all in the book in this context. Mr Wynne is Mr Rose’s pop. “We never used the word ‘step’. Never. Us four boys weren’t his step-sons, we were his sons,” Mr Rose said. Mr Rose is looking at doing more writing, but this time a book full of short fictional stories. Don’t go into town, Tonto! by Hugh Rose is out now.

HUGH Rose has proven it’s never too late to publish your first book, with the 84-year-old ex-sailor, fisherman, farmer and Loch Sport resident recently releasing his memoir Don’t go into town, Tonto! Hugh Rose was born in December 1937 in the UK. He left school at age 15 to join the Royal Navy. He then joined the Merchant Navy and emigrated to Australia where he travelled extensively. He worked in a copper mine, did various labouring jobs, and went back to sea again on a Tasmanian lobster boat. In later years he worked in Aboriginal communities in the Gulf of Carpentaria and the Red Centre. The sea would not escape Mr Rose’s heart, and he’s now enjoying semi-retirement with his wife Rosalin Sipirok in Loch Sport, surrounded by water once again. Despite living in Australia for 59 years, he finally became a naturalised citizen in January this year. His many unexpected encounters with colourful characters and events taught him life lessons in an entertaining, humorous and honest manner over the years, and it was a story he wanted to tell. “I had the ideas in my head about 30 years ago, but started writing the book in 2015,” Mr Rose said. “We had moved back to the Snowy Mountains where we used to live. But eventually, we knew that because of encroaching age, the property we were living in was too much - it was way too large. “We wanted to go back near the water again. We found the right house, the right time and the right price, here in Loch Sport at the end of 2018. “It was at that point, we suddenly decided, let’s see if we can get the book published.” Mr Rose didn’t use a computer to write the book, he wrote it by hand. Ms Sipirok, a community development worker, assisted with administrative tasks like emails to get the book published. “It’s not easy to do the website stuff and emails. It’s a jungle out there,” Ms Sipirok said. “Especially for the older generation. But we still got the book published by Austin Macauley Publishers, a British publisher. “The publishers loved his honesty.” Mr Rose said it was an easy book to write. “It was the editing that took a long time,” he said. Asked if he had any advice for those who want to write a book, Mr Rose said “don’t bugger around”. “Just sit down and write a lot of bull, and stacks of it. And then take out all the dross, condense it, and then keep on writing whatever comes into your head. And you can write from memory if it’s a memoir.” The couple hope that the publication of the book proves that anyone can get their first book out there, no matter what age. Mr Rose was part of a Writers Club, which was run by Loch Sport Community House, but stopped when COVID hit. “At the writers club, they talked about using mind mapping to write fiction or if you don’t know what to write about,” Mr Rose said. “But I didn’t need a mind map with this book. I started with when I was born, I went to school, later on the bombs (that) fell on us and that sort of stuff. It was just using my

Loch Sport on international TV Stefan Bradley
LOCH Sport has hit the world stage after Syrianborn businessman Elias Saliba’s kebab van was featured on a Syrian morning show broadcast internationally. “I got a call from a friend in The Netherlands, who said they saw me on Syrian television through satellite TV,” Mr Saliba told the Gippsland Times. After that, friends and family from Belgium, Switzerland, Germany and all over called Mr Saliba to say they saw the Syrian-inspired Loch Sport Kebabs on Syrian TV. The program and its website had translated the original Gippsland Times story ‘A taste of Syria at Loch Sport Kebabs’ (June 14, 2022), that featured the van. The show is on the Syrian News Channel and is a morning program, similar to Sunrise or The Today Show. The presenters on the show discussed in Arabic what was written in the story, in particular the origin of the kebabs and how Mr Saliba had become famous in Loch Sport. “A lot of people think that kebabs are Lebanese, Iraqi or Turkish,” Mr Saliba had said in the original story. “I would correct that by saying that kebabs are from Mesopotamia. They are from Assyria, going

Mesopotamia doesn’t exist today but the nations do exist, so the neighbouring countries took that tradition and used it as their own.” While Loch Sport may be enjoying some international attention, Mr Saliba wants to invest in the area at a local level. “I want to open a Syrian and Assyrian cuisine
restaurant, and a motel,” he said. A taste of his Syrian heritage may have returned home when his van appeared on TV, but Mr Saliba is more than happy to be living in Gippsland today. “Thank you to the Australian Government, the Wellington Shire and citizens of Loch Sport for allowing me and my family to come here and be a part of the community,” he said.
The Gippsland Times story on Loch Sport Kebabs was translated for a Syrian TV website.

The school procured tables, bats, balls and coaching from two very passionate locals representing Keenagers groups in a down-the-line winner for the Airly Primary School community. Sharon from Sale, and Brian from Bairnsdale were keen to spread the word about the sport,
expressing a desire to become more engaged at the school and community level. As Sharon and Brain revealed their table tennis secrets, there was smiles from every participant, whether parent, teacher, child or coach. On a fabulous day for Airly Primary School, the reaction from all involved showed how inclusive, fun, and deceptively tricky the sport of table tennis is.

Fragile Earth Exhibition coming Zoe Askew THIS weekend, (July 30-31), the Gippsland Art Gallery will host the Fragile Earth: Extinction in Conversation symposium as part of the Fragile Earth: Extinction Exhibition. In a special addition to the Fragile Earth: Extinction Exhibition, showing at the Gippsland Art Gallery until August 28, experts, scientists and artists from across the country will come together for a weekend-long symposium to discuss the critical state of the environment, and how to cultivate responsibility for ecological practices. The Fragile Earth: Extinction symposium will begin at 10.30am with a panel discussion from Fragile Earth: Extinction artists led by Associate Professor of Art, Environment and Cultural Studies at RMIT University in Melbourne, Linda Williams. Professor Williams’ expertise in the interdisciplinary field of environmental humanities, studies in human-animal relations, contemporary issues of climate change, and mass species extinction, has seen her deliver many keynote lectures and publish numerous research papers across Australia, England, Ireland, the United States, Japan, China and New Zealand. Australian National University Professor David Lindenmayer is next to follow, presenting his keynote lecture, ‘The Great Forest’.

Earth: Extinction symposium couldn’t be more crucial. “It will give the public a better understanding of what has been happening under our noses,” she said. “It has been overdue for real leadership from the power-brokers of this country to take real action about the destruction of our very life support system. “Governments have shirked their duty of care towards species loss for so many years now; it’s hard to see what native wildlife is left.” Since the previous State of the Environment
Report, released in 2016, 17 mammals, 17 birds, and 19 species of frogs have been added to the endangered list or upgraded to critically endangered. The Fragile Earth: Extinction symposium this weekend offers the Sale and surrounding community the opportunity to engage with those at the front line of climate action, and who have dedicated their life’s work to preserving the earth we live in.

THE Gippsland Symphony Orchestra is returning to The Wedge with a program of works composed by the child prodigy Felix Mendelssohn. Felix Mendelssohn rightly takes his place in the pantheon of Classical Music greats - a virtuosic instrumentalist and composer, he is considered one of the most important German composers of all time. His music combines the expressive elements of romantic music with the clarity of classical music, while reflecting the artistic attitude of his time: clarity, balance, and discipline. The GSO will be performing the Overture to A Midsummer Night’s Dream, which Mendelssohn originally composed aged 17 for two pianos and orchestrated at 19, demonstrating his precocious talent. The overture captures the works of Faires, Oberon, Tatiana, and the myriad of characters that Shakespeare created. The orchestra will also present two works that
are not regularly performed: the 10th String Symphony and the Trauermarsch for Woodwind and Brass. The featured work for this concert will be the Symphony No. 4 in A Major, op. 90, also know as the Italian - a composition that reflects Mendelssohn’s enthusiasm for travel and particularly Italy. In a letter to his sister, he wrote effusively of the Symphony No. 4 as being the “happiest piece I have ever written”. On its premiere performance, the Italian received great acclaim and was widely considered to be the ‘perfect’ symphony. Ironically, it was in 1851 that the piece was published for the first time, some four years after Mendelssohn’s death. The Gippsland Symphony Orchestra’s full performance will take place at The Wedge on Sunday, July 31 from 2pm. Tickets are available through thewedge.com.au and at the box-office.

Gippy Gig Guide back Stefan Bradley LIVE at the Bundy’s Brett Glover and Paul Versteden have relaunched the Gippsland Gig Guide through their website. The idea is to connect venues, artists and punters in the region and in turn, produce opportunities for creative thinkers to run events. Mr Glover and Mr Versteden collate the information to keep the region up to date on what events are upcoming. “Shows are well and truly back at all of the usual venues around Gippsland, with some new
places even opening up in the last two years,” Mr Glover said. “At the Bundy Hall, we have been extra busy dealing with ticketing with last minute cancellations but that’s the nature of todays COVID climate. “We have many people, bands and venues working directly with us.” The Gippsland Gig Guide also curates the dates by shire, so music lovers can easily find the shows coming to Wellington this year.

Calabro/Cebrano Live at The Bundy By MICHELLE SLATER
A FORMER Latrobe Valley vocalist with a pedigree steeped in music, is returning to Gippsland to sing with Oz music royalty next month. Amy Calabro will be supporting signing legend Kate Cebrano at two sold-out sessions at the Bundy Hall, off the back of two live gigs performing her newly released debut EP. The now Melbourne-based muso grew up in the Valley in a music oriented family. “I’m the only one in the family who is musical and doesn’t play the guitar. Dad tried to teach me when I was young, but I just wanted to sing,” Ms Calabro said. “I love being able to make a song my own and interpret it in my own way, this is something I began from a young age.” Ms Calabro began performing as a kid in school eisteddfods, before progressing to singing in duos. The Adele and Beatles fan said singing had given her the confidence to take risks and tell her life experiences through song.
“I feel like I come alive when performing and my confidence comes out, I enjoy this more than any other avenue in my life,” she said. “I’m excited and nervous, because it’s one thing to perform someone else’s song that’s already accepted and another to perform a song so personal to me.” Ms Calabro is releasing a six-track EP ‘Exposed’ that was recorded at Lee Bradshaw’s Burwood studio, along with accompanying piano and strings. She will be performing two gigs at the studio this week with the Invictus Quartet and Bradshaw on keys. But she said playing opening for Kate Cebrano was a “pinch myself moment” when the Bundy Hall hand-picked her as a support act. “Kate is incredibly inspiring and has an incredibly successful career, I’m looking to her as a mentor as she has a wealth of knowledge,” Ms Calabro said. “I’ve been working towards something like this for the past 10 years, I’m so proud I’m finally doing it.”

Next year, there will be a variety of groups on offer, so families should take the opportunity to visit centres on their Open Day and speak to the teachers and educators. Families are encouraged to ‘Look for the Kinder Tick’ when looking for kindergarten for both three and four-year-olds. When you see the Kinder Tick, you can be confident that the program will be led by a qualified teacher, the children will benefit from play-based learning, that it is a program funded and approved by the state government, and the program complies with the National Quality Framework.

Teachers and educators help children become curious, creative and confident about learning. Kindergarten programs are designed to meet the needs of their local families. All kindergarten programs work with the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework. This makes sure the programs are right for children’s ages.

for Agriculture, Gayle Tierney. “Agriculture Victoria continues to work hard to ensure its staff are prepared for any biosecurity risks from exotic disease such as foot-and-mouth,” Ms Tierney said. Although often considered a bovine disease, FMD is also know to infect other cloven-hoofed animals such as sheep, goats and pigs. Last Wednesday, fragments of FMD were detected in pork products - confirmed to have been imported from China - at a Melbourne retail outlet. According to Agriculture Victoria, the most significant risk of entry of FMD into Australia is through illegal meat and dairy products. There are over 300 dedicated biosecurity staff currently employed by Agriculture Victoria, representing a quarter of their workforce. The body is also regularly briefing the livestock industry and other peak bodies to ensure they understand their responsibilities and know what to do to manage the threat of FMD. “Biosecurity is everyone’s responsibility, and we all need to help protect our agriculture, our
Strong measures needed IN light of a potential foot-and-mouth disease outbreak, Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester says the Labor government’s introduction of foot mats at international airports is finally a step in the right direction. Mr Chester, who has been calling for further measures to be introduced, said Labor had failed to act with enough urgency to protect Australian farmers. “The outbreak of foot-and-mouth Disease (FMD) in Indonesia is a major concern for our country and we need to act,” Mr Chester said. “The disease would be devastating to our agriculture and livestock industries as well as the nation’s economy. “The Victorian livestock industry alone employs 52,000 people and accounts for more than $8 billion in production value each year. “We cannot risk the decimation of this industry, the jobs it provides, and the flow-on social and
economic losses that would result.” Mr Chester said the government needed to consider further measures to bolster protection. “While the introduction of the foot mats is welcomed news, we must remain vigilant,” he said. “Departmental briefings have advised of the disease spreading in Indonesia with it being found in 22 provinces. “It is time to consider what stronger measures can be implemented, such as border controls, 3D x-ray scanners and increased screening requirements for all passengers. “An FMD outbreak would affect us all and the industries and economy would take years to recover. “Our biosecurity is at risk here and I urge the Labor government to take the necessary precautions to keep our livestock industry safe.”

economy and our unique natural environment,” Ms Tierney said. The Minister’s words come amid an outbreak of FMD on the Indonesian island of Bali, with fears that the disease could soon spread to Australia. Deputy Nationals leader Emma Kealy has urged both state and federal Labor governments to do more to combat the disease. “Victoria’s own Agriculture Minister has been totally silent despite (FMD) being a $6 billion threat to our own local industries,” Ms Kealy said. “Where’s Gayle Tierney and why isn’t she working hard to push her Federal Labor colleagues to take strong action?” The federal government recently announced it would introduce sanitation foot mats at international airports to reduce the risk of FMD in Australia. Any suspected or confirmed cases of foot-andmouth disease must be reported to Agriculture Victoria on the Emergency Animal Disease Hotline: 1800 675 888.

Safe to eat meat: Cattle Council CATTLE Council of Australia is reassuring the public that it is perfectly safe to eat beef, following the outbreak of Foot and Mouth Disease. Viral fragments of the disease were found in food products in Melbourne on July 20, however Agriculture Minister Murray Watt, remains confident that Australia can remain free of the disease. “I feel very confident that Australia’s worldleading biosecurity system stands us in very good stead to resist this outbreak arriving,” Mr Watt said. “There is a very serious outbreak of foot and mouth disease in Indonesia at the moment, just as there is in a number of other countries around the world. “Malaysia, Vietnam, we have seen it in South Africa, in China, in other countries as well. But we are certainly working extremely hard in partnership with industry to make sure that we keep it
out by taking really strong measures here at home as well as making sure that we are helping our neighbours abroad.” Australia has been free of the disease for over a century, but just one positive case of foot and mouth could shut the $27 billion livestock export trade down for months or even years. The federal government has estimated the total cost of a major outbreak at $80 billion. Viral fragments are not live and cannot transmit the virus, but head of biosecurity at peak body Animal Health Australia, Rob Barwell says their presence in meat products raised concerns that other tainted products had breached Australia’s biosecurity system. As a result of the detection of viral fragments, Cattle Council of Australia has made it clear that it is perfectly safe to eat beef, a necessary reassurance due to confusion around the impact of Foot and
Mouth Disease. Cattle Council president Lloyd Hick said the disease was not transmissible to humans. “Foot and Mouth Disease can’t make you sick,” Mr Hick said. “It also has no impact on the quality, flavour or nutrition values of beef or any meat product. “We take this seriously because it would cause an animal welfare crisis and potentially lose our access to international markets. “Producers wouldn’t be able to sell affected cattle on the domestic market if they are sick. “Affected cattle need to be isolated from other herds to prevent the spread of the disease and can’t be sold. “This means we could lose great volumes of stock which would have a big impact on producers. “We ask everyone travelling back from countries with Foot and Mouth Disease to ensure they follow
biosecurity protocols. “This includes cleaning and disinfecting clothing and footwear - especially if you come in contact with agriculture. “Also, always make sure you make an honest biosecurity declaration at the airport. “If your personal effects need to be cleaned, they will be returned to you. “Biosecurity is everyone’s responsibility, and it protects the standards of living for all Australians.” There have been 401,205 cases of Foot and Mouth Disease detected across 22 of Indonesia’s provinces. According to Indonesia’s National Disaster Mitigation Agency (BNPB) foot and mouth taskforce, 2772 animals have died of the disease and more than 4000 have been slaughtered in an attempt to eradicate the virus.

the presence of Agriculture Victoria in the region will help protect bees during this busy time, and assist efficient tracing if varroa mite is detected. “Check your hives for Varroa mite and if you see anything suspicious, please report it immediately to the Exotic Plant Pest Hotline on 1800 084 881,”
Dr Crnov said. “If you plan to take beehives to the Sunraysia region, visit the Agriculture Victoria website and apply for a permit.” Permit applications can be made at agriculture. vic.gov.au/varroa

AGRICULTURE Victoria has taken steps to ensure this year’s almond pollination season goes ahead, with permits to be issued to Victorian, Queensland and South Australian beekeepers, allowing them to enter the Sunraysia region. Beekeepers who are granted a permit will be required to inspect their hives before arriving at Victorian almond orchards to protect the state’s bees from varroa mite, which has been detected in New South Wales. Bees, hives, equipment and bee products from New South Wales are prohibited from entering Victoria. Agriculture Victoria will continue to review the situation and consider making amendments to the permit system as conditions change. Victoria’s Chief Plant Health Officer Dr Rosa Crnov said the Sunraysia permit system has been extended to include South Australia and Queensland to ensure bees can be sourced for Victoria’s valuable almond pollination to go ahead. “We’re doing all we can to support Victoria’s almond producers and to keep Victoria free of varroa mite,” Dr Crnov said. “Our bee biosecurity team will be on the ground during the pollination season, inspecting hives and working with beekeepers to ensure hives arrive and leave in a healthy state.” Varroa mite is a serious threat to Australia’s bee population, and Victoria’s $524 million almond industry, which relies on pollination. The state’s almond producers, located in the Sunraysia region, require between 150,000 and 200,000 hives to pollinate crops every August. The detection of Varroa mite so close to pollination season has made sourcing hives for this year’s almond crop more challenging. Dr Crnov said the Victorian permit system and

BLADES, Brian. Eighteen years have gone but loving memories linger on. To have, to love, then to part is the saddest story of the human heart. In God's own time we will all meet again. Kath, loving family and grandchildren.
New touch season ONLY one game was played in the opening round of the new touch season when Longford Trailer Hire played The Drop Kicks in a re-match of last season’s grand final. In the grand final, the scores were tied at three-all and it was only in extra time that Longford managed to make the winning try through Mason Annear. Wednesday night’s game was also a close encounter, with Longford scoring four tries in the first half to The Drop Kicks’ three, and each side making two in the second-half. The Drop Kicks’ Andrew Campbell opened the scoring at the five-minute
It has been 18 years but only feels like yesterday. You are always in our hearts and will forever be a part of all of us. We miss you every day. Deb, Cass and Damien and families.
Grummisch and The Drop Kicks’ Tawh Ashby each made two tries. Best players were Oscar CrundenSmith, Ashby, Grummisch, Massey and Alicia Kingi. In tomorrow night’s games, The Drop Kicks play Phoenix (referee Mustangs) from 6.30pm. At 7.20 pm, Mustangs plays Porky’s (referee The Drop Kicks). Longford has the bye. The Pink Panthers will be in recess for a short time due to the work commitments of players.

COULD you say that you have done something exactly 100 times? Abbey Kinnish can, after playing her 100th game of senior netball for Sale City Football-Netball Club against Yarram last Saturday. “It’s taken me five and a half years, but we finally got there,” Kinnish said. Introduced to netball at a young age, it wasn’t until Kinnish finished university that she began ‘football league’ netball with Sale City in 2016. “I have always loved and played netball,” Kinnish said. “But due to work commitments in my teenage years, I couldn’t play netball on the weekends.” Growing up, Kinnish’s parents were players and active members of Sale City FNC, so upon her return home from university, there was no other option for this eager netball player. “Both my parents played at Sale City when I was growing up,” Kinnish said. “I just love the atmosphere at Sale City; everyone is very welcoming, whatever your skill level or experience. “The girls are so friendly, the coaches, the managers, everyone behind the scenes are amazing. “It is a great club to be a part of.” In her position as a defender, Kinnish has played a crucial role in Sale City’s three consecutive D Grade premierships in 2016, 2017 and 2018. In her first year back in D Grade following a two-year stint in C Grade, Kinnish is hopeful the D Grade Bulldogs will take out yet another premiership in the North

SALE CITY’S chances of maintaining their coveted spot in the top five on the North Gippsland table took a hit at the selection table prior to the weekend’s clash with Yarram, when Sam Davidson (hamstring injury) and Ben Chivers (knee) were unable to be considered. Yarram too was missing a few players, but they seemingly had the superior line-up available, and that is precisely how the game played out, with the Demons winning 17.11 (113) to 9.7 (61). A five-goal to one first term and four-goal to two second term saw the travelling Demons enter the long break with a more than healthy five goal plus lead. On the back of Dan Vardy’s dominance, teammate Corbin Sutherland reporting that the ruckman won virtually every tap out, Yarram were able to get the ball forward at will, and with Josh Swift (six goals) having a day out in front of the big sticks, things got harder for the home side after half-time. Sutherland himself slotted three from a wing, and with Boadie Motton hitting the scoreboard to go with what Sutherland suggested was at least 40 possessions, the game was done by the last change when Yarram led by north of 50 points. Ben Brett, Jack Heywood and Mitch Evans managed multiple goals for the tri-colours, but it was too little, too late when they managed to match Yarram on the scoreboard in the last. For anyone who’d forgotten, clearly Yarram are a better side than they have shown for large parts of this year, and while they sit fourth now, the top three sides won’t need to take too many peaks in the rear view mirror to see the perennial
powerhouse looming large in another finals series. For Sale City, they now know the standard required to complete with the finalists. Having secured a win over third-placed TTU, we can be sure that their best is good enough, but with only three games to go and a few significant injuries, it might be tough for them to sneak back into the five before the end of the season rolls around. SITTING between City and finals is Woodside. The Wildcats, according to coach Michael Duncan, found some of their best form on Saturday, playing their “most complete game since round one” when they steamrolled Glengarry by a huge 116 points, 22.20 (152) to 5.6 (36). A whopping 10 Wildcats kicked majors, with Bailey Tatnell and David Waddel slotting three apiece, while Zac Richards booted a career-best five. For Glengarry, only Spencer Poulton managed multiple goals with two, in an effort that must leave the coaching panel scratching their heads. The Pies’ best has proven to be competitive for large parts of games with sides in and around the top three, so how they could cough-up 152 points to the league’s sixth-best side while only managing five goals themselves must be frustrating beyond belief. THINGS looked somewhat easier for Gormandale when Yallourn Yallourn North skipper and gun full-forward Dean MacDonald was not listed in the team Thursday night; however come Saturday, D Mac pulled on the jumper and set about kicking the lazy 10 majors. Ably assisted by his wingman Keenan Hughes, who slotted seven, the Jets managed to run away 229 point winners, 37.14 (236) to 1.3 (9). The Jets held Gormandale to just one goal for the day, and kept them scoreless in both the second and

final terms in what was a complete one-sided affair. For Gormandale, Kodie Owen continued his excellent recent form with another best-on performance, but with Isaac Copland the only goal scorer, there was little to be positive about for the Tigers. SITTING a relatively comfortable five percentage points in front of Gormandale in second-last place is Cowwarr. They too were soundly beaten Saturday, but managed to at least hit the scoreboard a few times when going down to TTU by 130 points, 24.16 (159) to 4.5 (29). Kade Duncan was named best-on for the Bombers for his efforts on the wing, while midfield weapons Mitch Mustoe and Michael Jacobsen joined Hendricken, rounding out the Bombers’ best four players. For the Warr, it was all singles with Jack Casson, Wayne Swan and Matt Bourke listed as their best. THE final clash of the round saw Heyfield blow Rosedale out of the water early, and then maintain a healthy break across the next three quarters to run out 44-point winners, 16.6 (102) to 9.4 (58). With Leigh Brown and Wayne Knight dominant up front - the duo finished with seven between them - the Kangaroos were never seriously challenged. For Rosedale, Declan Barnett and Frazar Brouns kicked two each, but after the first quarter it was all academic. Rohan Diamond joined Barnett as the Blues best pair on the park for the visitors. CHURCHILL had the bye. NORTH GIPPSLAND SCOREBOARD WILL APPEAR IN FRIDAY’S ISSUE

Magpies’ massacre and Maffra miracle LIKE a bag of Allen’s Party Mix, Round 15 had a bit of everything in the Gippsland League.There was a game decided by two points, a game decided by multiplying that amount by 70, and a game that couldn’t be decided at all. SALE played like it was 2012 again. The Magpies catapulted to second spot on the ladder after massacring Moe by 140 points at Sale Oval. The Lions hadn’t won at Sale Oval since 2002, and it became clear early in the third quarter another year was going to be added to this drought. Not long after the ball was held aloft to start the game, Sale had a goal on the board, the first of what ended up being a final scoreboard reading 26.16 (172) to 4.6 (30). Moe showed some resistance in the firsthalf, and trailed by 41 points at the main break, before the wheels well and truly fell off. Sale kicked eight goals to none in the third term, and then 10 goals to two in the last. Truthfully, the Magpies treated the Lions as witches’ hats in the second half. The word ‘clinical’ was probably the best description of how Sale went about its business, as they dominated possession and continually surged the ball forward. The Magpies’ skill level and presence of mind was top shelf, to the extent they constantly seemed to be toying with their opponents. Ryan Pendlebury exemplified this, at times shaping to handball, only to then have acres of space in which to kick having sold the dummy. Play-of-the-day resulted in a bizarre outcome, after a crafty handball from Jarrod Freeman in the forward pocket in front of the Past Players Hill, set up a path for Tom Campbell to snap the ball through. The only problem was the snap was called a behind, despite the fact the ball clearly went through for a goal. For Moe, this was their only win for the day, and shaved five points off the final margin. Campbell ended up being credited with five goals, while Jesse Collins, Jack McLaren and Shannen Lange each kicked three. Moe’s plan to tag Lange backfired completely, as he was voted best-on-ground. Collins and McLaren also played well, as did the Leslie brothers, Will and Jack, and Pat Tainsh. For Moe, defender Brock Smith was kept busy, and battled manfully, while Scott Van Dyk, Ben Morrow, James Blaser, Ben Maslen and Grady Cocksedge did likewise. If the scoreboard wasn’t a reflection of how one-sided the contest was, the sight of Moe players looking exhausted post-game, while one Sale player was heard to say they “didn’t even break into a sweat”, surely painted a clear picture. Having put together as close to a complete performance as one would hope to see, Magpies’ coach Jack Johnstone was understandably pleased with how his side played. “We knew that it was going to be tight early on, but if we kept our pressure up, eventually the game could blow out,” he said. “Luckily the boys cashed in at the end and
to exit the field after the match was done. There is little doubt those kids will look up to the senior players and think ‘I want to be part of this one day’. While the margin on the scoreboard may have stood out, the number of ‘Sale people’ mingling around the place was even more telling. A club is nothing without its people after all.
Shannen Lange was again best-onground for Sale at the weekend. Moe tried tagging Lange, only for the plan to Photo: Zoe Askew backfire completely. blew the margin out, which is a bit of reward for effort. “You know what you are going to get out of your Shannen Langes and Jack Leslies, but Mitchy Bown and Cooper Whitehill, Jake Hutchins coming in off the back line, there is a lot of pressure from this young group, it has been nice to see the older guys take a step back.” Following their huge win and other results falling their way, Sale now has a clear path to securing a double-chance, something Johnstone said the team was striving toward. “We have to win these next three games, the Traralgon one especially (in Round 17),” he said. “We would be disappointed if we didn’t get the top three, but at the end of the day we just want to keep winning games of footy.” Arguably the biggest difference from Sale this season compared to their finals series squads of 2018 and 2019 is depth. For the first time in close to a decade, the Magpies have healthy numbers and quality players running around in the early game. There was some more than handy names on the Sale reserves team sheet at the weekend; names such as Shane Fyfe, Jamie Sweeney, Russell ‘Rusty’ McAdam and Mitch Thacker - all who have senior finals experience. “We’ve had 42 blokes the last two Thursday nights, at the moment there is 14,15 guys missing out on reserves selection,” Johnstone said. “That is a credit to Sam Anstee the footy director and Pete Morrow (Peter Morrison) the twos coach, that they have guys wanting to play at this club again. “When you have both teams winning and looking like they are going to play finals it just adds that motivation to get more guys involved, and that is what is happening.” Looking on from afar, it is clear a key focus for Sale this year has been to embrace and get as many people involved as possible. Last Saturday, the Sale social rooms were packed, the senior team had no shortage of assistant coaches, and young kids proudly wore their Magpie colours, and lined the change rooms waiting for their senior heroes
MAFFRA pulled off a miracle. The Eagles hit the lead right at the death against Morwell, and held on to win by three points 11.10 (76) to 9.19 (73). The result had instant ramifications for both sides, with the visitors climbing back into the top five after their victory. Had Morwell won, they would have gone two games clear into the top five, and Maffra’s season could have been effectively shot. Instead, the Eagles live to fight another day. For at least 90 per cent of the game, the Tigers looked to have the match won, however, poor conversion in front of goal allowed Maffra to stay in the contest. By half-time, Morwell had registered 21 scoring shots to nine, but led by only 22 points. A stalemate played out in the third, with both sides only managing one goal, with the Tigers ahead by 15 points heading into the last. Tensions boiled over as teams made their way to their respective huddles, the fallout of which saw two very different outcomes. From all reports, the quarrel fired Maffra up, while Morwell became slightly rattled. The Eagles then kicked 4.3 (23) in the last term, and kept the Tigers to 1.3 (9) to steal victory from the jaws of defeat. In the eyes of most, Maffra had no right to win the match, but the cool heads of Ed and Alex Carr, along with John Butcher (four goals), ensured the Eagles stayed composed during the frantic last few minutes. Young gun Tom Jolly kicked five for the winners, while Jack Challands was voted best-on, and was closely followed by David Adams. Tristen Waack continued his stellar form, and was best for Morwell. Others to play well were Archie Grant, Boyd Bailey, Brandon Mcauliffe, James Jacobsen and Tyler Brown. SPECTATORS got their monies worth at Wonthaggi. The Power played out a thrilling draw against Traralglon, as scores were deadlocked 62 apiece. DROUIN celebrated a win for morale sake. Making the never-easy trip to Bairnsdale, the Hawks got the points in a 14.14 (98) to 10.5 (65) contest. The win puts Drouin equal on points with Bairnsdale in ninth, meaning the ‘race’ to avoid the wooden spoon is still on. LEONGATHA maintained their unbeaten run, defeating Warragul 12.16 (88) to 3.7 (25). With 21 consecutive wins, Leongatha holds the longest winning-streak out of any team in country Victoria. Do you back Leongatha or the field for the premiership?

ANNIHILATION AT THE NEST Sale players Jayden Allison and Brad Dessent work together inside 50 during the Magpies’ huge win over Moe.
Sale moved to second on the Gippsland League ladder after their 140-point win. FULL STORY - PAGE 37.

Double-chance all but sewn up Liam Durkin STRATFORD is a step closer to securing the double-chance in East Gippsland football. The Swans defeated Lindenow in Round 15 action, and are now two games clear with three rounds to go. Conversely, the Cats have hit a slight form slump at the worst possible time, dropping three of their last four games, sliding to fourth on the ladder. Travelling to Lindenow, Stratford broke away in the final term, kicking four goals to two to claim a 20-point victory. For most of the day there had been little in the contest. The Cats held a two-point advantage at the main break, and the Swans an eight-point lead at three quarter time, before the final scoreboard read 15.14 (104) to 13.6 (84). Haydn Erfurth and Tim Hawkins each had a big say in the result, kicking five and four respectively for Stratford. Will Webb was best-on-ground, while Gavin Bickery, Alex Morcom and Jackson Cottrell also played well. Best for Lindenow were Brodie Cameron, Todd Alexander, Conor Harvey, Matt Irish, Jack van Reyk and Josh Lando. Looking ahead, Stratford’s match against
Wy Yung in the penultimate round is shaping as an intriguing contest between one-and-two. A win to the Swans will give the team genuine belief they can win the premiership, although the Tigers might opt to hold a few cards close to their chest in the hope of luring Stratford into a false sense of security. BOISDALE-BRIAGOLONG showed some fight against Lakes Entrance. After a lacklustre performance the previous round, the Bombers got some respect back in an 18.14 (122) to 15.7 (97) effort. Just seven-points separated teams at the main break, before the Seagulls made their move. With eight goals to six in the second half to the advantage of Lakes Entrance, the story showed Boisdale-Briagolong was far from disgraced, but ultimately, not good enough when it was all said and done. Matt Wilkinson shouldered most of the workload for the Bombers, and couldn’t have done much more to help his side, kicking eight goals in a dominant display. Kel Porter was again industrious, and received good support from Brandon Rimington, Byron Sandeman, Ben Wilkinson and Tom Brew. Best for Lakes Entrance were Tom

Smith, Jordan Cullen, Liam Carroll, Jarred McDonnell, Aaron Wheatley and Sam Nickless. The Seagulls are two games out of the top four, and will need to win virtually every game for the rest of the season to make finals. ELSEWHERE, Lucknow had a win over Orbost Snowy Rovers. The Magpies led at every change, and got up 14.8 (92) to 11.11 (77). Hamish Nettleton did his best to win the game for the Blues, kicking six goals. Max Welsh, Gus Rogers, Will Walker, Jackson Bates and Andrew Malcolm were other prominent performers. Joel McNamara was best for Lucknow, along with James Sanford, Ry Mutimer, Damian Hodder, Brenden Flinn and Josh Carroll. WY YUNG was too good for Paynesville. The Tigers ran away with the contest in the end, winning 14.12 (96) to 5.5 (35). Brad Daniel nabbed eight in the victory, and had a few mates help him out in Mitchell Toms, Jack Halabut, Jock Overend, Jobe Somerville and Tom Betts. David Ashworth, Ben McKinnon, Caleb Holland, Ash O’Connor, Isaac Smith and Scott Joustra played well for the Gulls. EAST GIPPY SCOREBOARD - PG 35
