Three awards just all in the family for the Blackleys of Leopold BY ANDREW MATHIESON A THIRD member of a Leopold family to be honoured with an international service award has paid tribute to her sick mum and dad who have dedicated 50 years to community organisation Rotary. But the Paul Harris Fellow for humanitarian achievements is the last thing on Jenny Blackley’s mind. Dad Bill, who suffers pulmonary fibrosis, is hooked up to an oxygen tank every minute of the day. Mum Peggy has been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s disease, forcing Jenny to move back into their Leopold home to care for both parents and a disabled brother. “It’s about keeping the family together, which is important because that lets them to go off to be able to do these Rotary things that I want them to be able to do,” she said. Drysdale Rotarians believe the Blackleys are the first Australian family to be awarded the prestigious fellowship three times. A former secretary, Bill wrote computer programs for the club’s annual art show, which had Peggy as a driving force. “It’s nice recognition because, with dad being as sick as he is, he may not be able to do much more with Rotary,” Jenny said. “But he hasn’t finished, as far as he sees it. He’s still a Rotarian and always will be but, as for what he can do, I don’t know.” A talented musician and a paid teacher, Jenny’s talents first lured her into the service organisation two decades ago. She has since helped with the art show and Rotary car rallies at Eastern Beach. “The family had a music business and we would take an organ or a piano each (Rotary) changeover night and play music for the members and that’s how I got involved with my dad,” Jenny said.

Sand dump approved She said storms were responsible for the loss of beach sand, so replacing it was a waste of time and money. Drysdale Clifton Springs Community Association president Doug Carson expressed similar concerns to the Independent last month, saying the Government had failed to consult residents. Mr Carson said Clifton Springs had lost at least 50 to 100 metres of beach in the past two years, which

required a “considered and studied process” rather than a quick fix. He was concerned about the potential environmental impact of sand from a distant source with a different ecology. Environment and Climate Change Minister Gavin Jennings announced a $6 million Government “enhancement program” for beaches in April. He defended the project as a way to “revitalise” six Victorian beaches.

“The beaches around Port Phillip Bay and Corio Bay attract millions of visitors each year, which is why the Brumby Labor Government is taking action to ensure they remain attractive and functional for everyone to enjoy,” he said. “Over the next two years they will receive tonnes of sand and have restoration and revegetation work done on them to bring them back to the high standard the community expects.”

DRINKERS will soon be able to return to the old days of having a smoke at the pub after the state’s planning tribunal approved Belmont Hotel’s application for a rooftop terrace. Owner Belinda Shaw said the hotel planned to serve meals and drinks on top of the hotel. “It will be for smoking because it’s open-air,” she said. “It gives us one more area and on a busy night it’s great because most people have to stand out the front to smoke, so it will be nice for people to go somewhere else to have a cigarette.” Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT) dismissed residents’ concerns about noise from the hotel rooftop. Geelong’s council had previously issued a permit for live music in the hotel’s

ground floor bar area but refused to open the rooftop terrace to paying patrons. Mrs Shaw said the pub tried working with objectors to “make sure they were happy”. The tribunal restricted trading hours to satisfy nearby sleepers, she said. “We’re zoned commercial but we’re close to a residential area. “We had objections from people who lived around the area and they were worried about noise from people talking loud on the roof but we’ve been restricted until 10pm, which the tribunal said is in the normal sleep pattern.” Ms Shaw said she initially planned live music on the rooftop. “When it came down to being realistic in a residential area, it just wasn’t going to work.” “But we’re very excited – it’s been a very long process it’s a happy end.”

Course battle backed BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN TWO KEY business associations have backed councillors’ fight against plans to redevelop a former golf course in North Geelong. Geelong Traders Association and the city’s chamber of commerce said Woolworths’ application to establish a bulky goods outlet on part of the course was outside the region’s structure plan for retailing. The Independent last week revealed fears the Woolworths bid could allow site owner Links Living to escape an agreement to develop a nine-hole course on the former Geelong Golf

Club land. Links Living had claimed retaining the proposed course was “commercially unrealistic”. However, a 2006 Section 173 agreement with the City of Greater Geelong binds Links to either develop the course or hand over the land to council. Geelong Cr Stretch Kontelj told the Independent last week that Woolworths’ application, including plans for a par-three course, could help Links “wriggle out of its obligations”. Cr Kontelj said Links could use ministerial planning approval for the bulky goods outlet on the south-east parcel of the site to pressure council into renegotiating the Section 173.

The application last week went before an advisory committee to make a recommendation to Planning Minister Justin Madden on whether to approve the plan. Traders association spokesman Hayden Spurling said it was difficult to find anyone in Geelong who supported the Woolworths plan. “You have to wonder what the minister is doing,” Mr Spurling said. “Is Mr Madden getting pressure to even consider this? Will he be tempted to approve the application? “The agreement was made when the site was sold to Links and those requirements are now being thrown

out the window. This is clearly aimed at negating the Section 173.” Chamber of commerce president Jim Walsh said the organisation had written to Mr Madden indicating its opposition to his intervention in the usual planning process. Mr Walsh said issues of concern included: the compatibility of the Woolworths’ proposal to the previously approved rezoning of the course land and the accompanying section 173 agreement; consistency with council’s retail strategy; stormwater management; and a package of zoning and planning scheme provisions already approved.

Minister hears city’s aviation academy bid BY ERIN PEARSON TULLAMARINE and Essendon have emerged as tough competition threatening Avalon Airport’s bid for an $80 million aviation academy, according to Geelong figures lobbying for the facility. But they have told Skills and Workforce Participation Minister Bronwyn Pike that the academy was vital to ensuring a “viable” second airport for Victoria at Avalon. Ed Coppe, the chairman of regional councils alliance group G21, Avalon Airport’s Justin Giddings, Geelong Mayor John Mitchell The Gordon TAFE boss Grant Sutherland met Ms

Pike to plead Avalon’s case in Melbourne on Wednesday. Mr Coppe said Ms Pike “listened intently” to the delegation. Mr Coppe said Tullamarine and Essendon airports had also submitted proposals for the facility. He described them as “making tough competition”. “It took a lot of effort to persuade the minister (to listen to Geelong’s pitch) because the easy decision is to base the facility at Tullamarine,” he said. “But the strategic decision is to base it at Avalon because Tullamarine will get busier and training activities will become more difficult to execute.

“We talked about a range of issues but made the important point that Victoria would benefit from a second viable airport rather than just allowing Tullamarine to have a monopoly of services.” Mr Coppe said the meeting was a “really important” opportunity to demonstrate how keen Geelong was to secure the academy. “From Geelong’s point of view, it would be a fantastic opportunity to provide the community with more economic activity.” State Government began considering potential for establishing the state’s first aviation training facility in December after a meeting with indus-

try representatives. Mr Coppe said the delegation also handed Ms Pike a copy of a G21 petition with more than 2400 signatures supporting the academy bid. Mr Giddings said Ms Pike raised minor “concerns” about the bid but the meeting “felt positive”. “We pretty much did the best we could do and put forward a pretty powerful contingent,” he said. The academy would be Victoria’s centre of excellence in training aviation industry employees such as aircraft engineers, mechanics, baggage handlers, airport operators, flight attendants, tarmac staff and, potentially, pilots.

in brief Rail boost A NEW three-carriage VLocity train is set to boost seating on services between Geelong and Melbourne, according to Premier John Brumby. Mr Brumby inspected the first of the new trains set for regional Victorian lines when it rolled off the production line on Wednesday.

Clothing jobs GEELONG’S Cotton On clothing company plans to create 300 new jobs in the next three years after tapping into an investment fund to offset losses in the city’s manufacturing sector. Cotton On will use $750,000 from the state and federal fund to expand its distribution and administration operations as part of a push to expands its presence in domestic and international clothing markets.

Smart bike GEELONG researchers plan to unveil a new “smart bike” in time for international road cycling championships in the city later this year. Deakin University said researchers were working on a range of high-tech materials and design to produce a bike capable of partly “thinking for itself” to improve performance for its rider.

Station saviours CITY HALL is calling for volunteers to meet and greet train passengers while helping “keep an eye” on behaviour at North Shore Station. Councillor Kylie Fisher said candidates would join an existing volunteers trying to create a “friendly and inviting environment” at the station.

Lara scores STATE Government has thrown its weight behind plans for a $600,000 multi-purpose sport field featuring a turf area for soccer at Lara. MP John Eren announced a state contribution of $100,000 for the City Hall project at the Lara Recreation Reserve.

Ramped up ANGLERS are set to use a new boat ramp at Torquay by the end of October, according to Surf Coast’s foreshore management body. Great Ocean Road Coast Committee said it had awarded a contract to build the new ramp, with work to start in August.

Bypass anger MORE than 150 residents have attended an “angry” protest over plans to build a bypass extension near their homes at Grovedale, according to the organiser. Margarita Kumnick said participants believed they had been left out of the loop on the Surf Coast link plan.

NO DEBT..! ... it’s what we all want..!

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN NINE Geelong frisbee players are off to Heilbronn, Germany, as part of a 40-strong Australian squad competing in the world championships. Geelong has also supplied the team manager, Andrew Gruntovs, for the 2010 World Junior Ultimate Championships from August 2 to 7. But using the term frisbee was a bit of a misnomer, Mr Gruntovs explained. “The game is called ultimate and uses a disc with a lot more flexibility, accuracy and control than your standard toy but it operates on

the same principle as a winged aerofoil.” The sport was self-refereed, Mr Gruntovs said. “It’s the only continuing sport in world that is self-refereed, even at world championship level. “It’s fantastic because it breeds spirit and, while there are disputes, it’s always settled on the field by the two players concerned and the game goes on. “Voting for most valuable player always takes into account to a great degree the way players handle deci-

sions within a game.” Mr Gruntovs said ultimate was a non-contact team sport with seven players a side. The players passed the throwing disc passed around until a score was registered when a player caught the disc being in an end-zone. Mr Gruntovs said the Geelong club played every Tuesday night at Highton reserve, with monthly “frolf” – a cross between frisbee and golf – at Johnstone Park. Mr Gruntovs said the sport had a strong social aspect for its 14,000 reg-

istered players across the country. The nine Geelong representatives had to raise $6500 each to pay their way to the world championships. “We’ve done a lot of fundraising, and players have worked part-time jobs to raise the money,” Mr Gruntovs said. “Because we have so many great junior players in Geelong, we’re looking for some corporate or individual support.” Mr Gruntovs asked prospective sponsors to phone him on 0414 538 131.

Circuses make way for new track because of all the requests we’ll give the showgrounds a go. We’ve booked for this time next year.” City Hall expects the purpose-built criterium circuit to be completed by August 31. Construction of earthworks and drainage systems began this week. Mayor Cr John Mitchell said the site’s Sunday market would be able to coexist on the land with the criterium. The track was a key component in the lead-up to Geelong’s hosting of the 2010 World Road Cycling Championships, he said. The facillity would allow cyclists to train and compete in a “safe, car-free environment”. “The circuit will allow us to build on the increased interest in cycling that will inevitably arise after Geelong hosts the championships and confirm the Geelong region as one of Australia’s cycling capitals.”

Cr Mitchell said that the criterium circuit would benefit local cyclists while also serving as a regional venue for training and skills development. “The circuit would be available for additional uses such as school programs, wheelchair sports and in-line skating,” he said. The City contributed $1 million to the project and State Government $500,000. Geelong Environment Council president Joan Lindros said in a letter to the Independent she was concerned about council developing “the green heart of Geelong”. Council had effectively transferred public open space to single-use and “elite events”, Ms Lindros said. “The philosophy of developing every open space for a particular sporting use or facility is flawed. There are values in the retention of green spaces for their landscape values and intrinsic value as well as informal and community use.”

BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN THE START of work on a cycling track has ended a 40-year tradition of circuses at Belmont Common, according to Silvers Circus. But Geelong’s council said the new facility would cater for a boom in bike racing after the city hosts world championships later this year. Silvers Circus spokesperson Margaret Petersen said she had “hounded” City Hall to allow her one more visit to the site before it was closed to the amusement. “I’ve know for the last 12 months that it would happen but I wanted to come in one more time – we get so many requests from the people of Geelong,” Ms Petersen said. “But I was told it’s finished and we have to go to the showgrounds. I’m not happy. “We’ve been going to that site for 40 years. It’s a shame. “The management at Geelong Showgrounds is very accommodating and

Arts of glass send anti-dope message

BY ERIN PEARSON AN EXHIBITION of glass art at Geelong Hospital has helped spread a message that cannabis is unwelcome in Aboriginal communities, according to organisers. The Cannabis is not our Culture exhibition visited the hospital as part of NAIDOC Week celebrations of Aboriginal and Islander culture. Norlane Aboriginal artist Kerrie Black said art was vital to reducing inequalities between Aboriginals and the wider community. “I think each individual Aboriginal person plays a big role in fixing this because you need to be yourself to show the stereotype shouldn’t be there,” she said. “It’s important to teach the wider community about our culture so they understand.” Ms Black said art helped bring communities together. “Art is something that’s easy to recognise and describe,” she said. “Sometimes you can sit and talk about things but people don’t get the message. This way if you look at the artwork you can understand the message better.” Ms Black said her opposition to drugs inspired her

Draft laws propose crackdown on rogue canines

Dog threat registered BY ANDREW MATHIESON GEELONG’S council has registered 44 “dangerous” dogs so far this year as State Government prepares new laws giving by-laws officers more power to crack down on rogue canines. According to council figures, dangerous dogs were responsible for 65 attacks between January and the end of June. More than 80 per cent of the registered dangerous dogs had attacked other animals. A further two incidents were at the residences of owners with dogs trained to attack, council said.

State Government is debating in parliament a proposed Dangerous Dogs Bill that would compel councils to play a greater role in preventing and addressing dog attacks. The bill could lead to employment of additional staff to handle dangerous dogs. City Hall has existing staff including qualified dog rangers as well as procedures including enforced registration and optional micro-chipping of pets. The state opposition fears councils like Geelong were already struggling to cope with an unregistered dog rate of 40 per cent.

Shadow agriculture minister Peter Walsh said councils would need more support to implement the proposed dog laws. “Many councils aren’t sufficiently resourced to enforce these new laws as well,” he said. “The responsibility will fall on local government to employ more authorised officers and rangers needed to make sure dogs are registered. “The legislation will also place greater onus on owners of some breeds to register them as dangerous, menacing and restricted breeds.”

Monash University research has found that unregistered dogs are more likely to be involved in attacks. City of Greater Geelong local laws acting manager Adrian Holbrook said council applied a number of conditions on owners of “dangerous” dogs, which included 34 guard dogs around Geelong. “One of the conditions is that the dog must be kept in a secure yard, with council inspections of the property made every 12 months to ensure the enclosure continues to conform with stringent safety requirements,” he said.

Funding fears over code confusion BY ERIN PEARSON SPORTS clubs across the region are in the dark on a new State Government code of conduct, according to the chief of Football Geelong. Lee Hartman said clubs were yet to receive copies of the code for community sport after it came into force on July 1, throwing a cloud over their state funding. “We had a meeting the other week with the Victorian Government but they didn’t have any timing in place to let us know when we’d receive the new copies,” Mr Hartman said.

Fr Dillon urged the church to go further than just a letter of apology. “I think what we’ve got to do in the long run is having a proper examination of the people who have been through the current system,” he said. “Ask them what they have thought about the process – was it supportive, was it intrusive, was it demeaning, was it helpful and, having completed the process, what did you think of the outcome, was it fair and just. “To say ‘Here is something that’s not done on a public trial basis but we do our best’ isn’t enough. We want to try to determine what the best things we should be doing are and what priorities we should have. Archbishop Hart’s letter went to every church in the 219 parishes of the archdiocese, which

includes the Geelong region. The letters have earned widespread praise for acknowledging sex abuse in the church as a crime. “One thing that made [the letter] very welcome was that it indicated a sense of personal distress on the part of the archbishop and echoed the thoughts of most Catholic people and those in the community,” Fr Dillon said. “The significant thing was he used the word criminal and to acknowledge these things as crimes from within the church I think has been an important step. “It’s a good starting point but I hope from there we don’t leave it sitting there.” Under Archbishop George Pell’s Melbourne Response process, an independent commissioner reviews complaints, with compensation capped at $75,000.

our clubs and associations don’t enforce the new Code.” Under the Code each peak association must develop its own sanctions, which could include mediation and education programs, suspensions, fines and bans. Mr Hartman said clubs would have to follow their own codes of conduct until the Government’s new format arrived. A spokesperson for Mr Merlino had not responded to the Independent’s call for comment about when the code would arrive when the paper went to press this week.

Apology ‘just Catholic start’ BY ERIN PEARSON THE CATHOLIC Church must do more than simply apologise to victims of clergy sex assault, according to Geelong’s Father Kevin Dillon. The St Mary’s parish priest called for a review of the church’s formal Melbourne Response to allegations of assault after the city’s Catholic Archbishop sent a letter of apology to parishes, including Geelong churches. Fr Dillon read the letter to parishioners at Geelong’s St Mary’s on Sunday. Fr Dillon said the letter was the first step in healing the wounds of sex assault within the church. The process should extend to reviewing the Melbourne Response process, which had remained unchanged since its introduction 15 years ago.

“We’re waiting for their direction but we still haven’t received anything.” Mr Hartman said local sports leagues were also unsure whether they or individual clubs had to sign the code. Sports Minister James Merlino said last week that the code would be binding on 84 associations representing more than 16,000 clubs. “The Victorian Government is a proud supporter of community sport and we have provided more than $200 million to the thousands of local clubs that are vital to our communities,” he said “But that funding is at risk if

News from Shell

A 600-tonne crane, similar to the one pictured here, will be used to replace part of one of the reﬁnery’s columns during a regular maintenance shutdown.

REFINERY MAINTENANCE WORKS UPDATE During the next month you may notice a new temporary structure dominating the Shell Geelong Refinery skyline. As part of its regular maintenance schedule, the refinery is conducting a shutdown of one of its production units. This will involve replacing the top third of one of the refinery’s columns using a 600-tonne crane with a 90-metre boom. Nicknamed Bertie, the crane will be used to remove the existing column section and install a new section. Thirty trucks are being used to transport pieces of the crane, which will be constructed on-site, to the refinery. When travelling to and from Melbourne by car or train, passengers may be able to see the crane and the column pieces being lifted up or down. All the works are being carried out in accordance with the refinery’s health, safety and environment procedures and EPA Victoria and WorkSafe guidelines. These activities do not affect access to or supply from the refinery.

State ‘expert’ to advise on climate change STATE Government has employed a “Climate Communities facilitator” to provide the region with “expert advice”, South Barwon MP Michael Crutchfield has announced. He said Amy O’Brien was one of eight facilitators across the state set to deliver the Government’s $10 million Climate Communities program. The facilitators would help community groups tap into program grants of up to $50,000 for climate change projects, Mr Crutchfield said. Examples of potential projects included a “bike hire cooperative” or trials of new “clean” technology. Mr Crutchfield said the facilitators would provide chances for “all levels of the community” to get involved in actions on climate change. “Each particular region has its own unique set of circumstances and in this instance Amy O’Brien will help aim to fight the effects of climate change particular to the

Spreading the message: Michael Crutchfield MP, Amy O’Brien and Environment, Climate Change and Innovation Minister Gavin Jennings. Geelong, Bellarine, Surf Coast and other Barwon south-west communities,” he said. “It is important that the communities of the Barwon southwest region utilise their facilitator to reap maximum reward

for the project they have in mind and I’m sure Amy O’Brien will be able to help the community groups in the Barwon south-west region through (her) expertise and skills to develop programs and

assist with grants. The climate facilitator positions were advertised as carrying a Victorian public service award salary at level four or five, which ranges from about $64,000 to $90,000 a year.

Women lead new ‘wave’ in asbestos BY ANDREW MATHIESON AT LEAST 15 Geelong residents have come forward fearful they have been exposed to deadly asbestos, according to a prominent law firm. Lawyer Tracy Madden said blue-collar workers and an increasing number of females were joining Slater and Gordon’s asbestos register. Ms Madden said the response to the register had left the firm “a bit surprised”. “I’ve been in this department for nearly 20 years and I’ve definitely seen a significant increase in people who have got asbestos-related illnesses, especially in that whole Bellarine

Peninsula area,” she said. “In my mind it’s for two reasons: first, because Geelong was a terrific manufacturing hub in its day and still remains quite industrial. “Secondly, it’s the great appeal of the place and people retire there but if they develop an illness and it’s not related to their time in Ford they’re still getting picked up by the medical community in Geelong.” Slater and Gordon lawyers had been running a campaign for former Ford Geelong employees who may have been exposed to asbestos in maintenance or on the production line. Ms Madden said the firm was already investigating the claims

of a female worker who alleged she was exposed to deadly asbestos fibres at Ford’s Geelong warehouse. “Geelong had a big manufacturing industry and I’d say anyone could be exposed to asbestos at any time.” Ms Madden said Geelong historically had high numbers of proven life-threatening cases. Cancer Council Victoria’s most recent figures, for 2002 until 2006, included 14 claimants in the Barwon region diagnosed with mesothelioma cancer from exposure of the protective lining of organs to asbestos. Ms Madden said builders,

carpenters, electricians and plumbers were most at risk but a “third wave” of women who washed their husband’s work clothes and children exposed to asbestos in old homes had appeared in recent years. “It’s a long wait between when you were exposed and when you actually develop the illness,” she said. Asbestos was most common in the building industry as sheets or installation, in manufacturing for brakes in cars and in textile factories’ steam pipes. Ms Madden said homes manufactured before 1982 were at risk because cement sheets in wet areas behind tiles could include asbestos.

MP hits back at printing ‘inconsistency’

t a le a s a s ’ y a d y r e v E Double standards LARKO’S

BY ANDREW MATHIESON A LABOR MP has accused his election rival of double standards over a glossy brochure printed in Melbourne. Corangamite’s Darren Cheeseman said Sarah Henderson had demonstrated a “lack of consistency” after attacking him in the Independent four weeks ago over his own brochure printed outside Geelong. Ms Henderson had ridiculed Mr Cheeseman’s mail-out as “ironic” for creating printing work in Melbourne while talking about his efforts protecting jobs in Corangamite. She told the Independent her objective was “to do as much of our printing as we can in the Geelong region” and that “it’s very important to deliver work to the region where I live.” Mr Cheeseman defended his brochure as “getting the best value for local taxpayer dollars”. But Ms Henderson’s own brochure began arriving in letterboxes this month

Mailout: Sarah Henderson’s brochure. with the name of a Melbourne printer on the spine. Mr Cheeseman said her about-face on printing locally was indicative of the Liberals’ campaign for votes in the marginal seat. “I think the overall issue here is about the Liberal candidate’s lack of consistency – and this has happened on a number of issues,” Mr Cheeseman said. “In this case, she’s criticised me for not printing everything locally, then done it herself.

“On the WorkChoices issue she pretends to oppose it but then supports individual contracts and abolishing laws protecting people against unfair dismissal. “You can’t be saying one thing one minute then doing the complete opposite in reality.” One of Ms Henderson’s priorities listed on the back of the brochure was to “support responsible economic policies to create job opportunities and maintain jobs across Corangamite”. Ms Henderson said her campaign team has produced a mixture of highway signs, introduction brochures, stickers and surveys printed in the Geelong region. Liberal party headquarters in Melbourne had arranged others using commercial contractors and privately donated funds, she said. “Unlike Mr Cheeseman, I don’t have the luxury of a taxpayer-funded and staffed electorate office or taxpayer-funded printing allowances to convey my message to the people of Corangamite,” Ms Henderson said.

Geelong now a ‘growth attractor’, says economist BY JOHN VAN KLAVEREN LEADING Australian economic commentator Robert Gottliebsen has a secret love of the Geelong region – he has a property in Anglesea. But he also knows that regional Australia is becoming a key growth attractor, he told a Geelong Chamber of Commerce breakfast this week. “Geelong is an attractive place to live – it has land, geography, good communications and sense of community and is close to a major market,” Mr Gottliebsen told the breakfast. Mr Gottliebsen said southern Australia was driving economic growth. “Victoria has had better governments than Queensland or NSW, therefore Melbourne and Growth: Robert Gottliebsen. Geelong are more prosperous than our north-

DARREN THOMAS CPA

ern neighbours.” Mr Gottliebsen believed property prices would remain stable despite a “pent up” demand. “The world economy and, more importantly for Australia, the Chinese economy are slowing, share markets are down and our interest rate is above the level required for the housing sector,” he said. “Real estate in this region was threatened by the mining tax,” he said. “We were riding on the mining boom and therefore had a flow of international loan money to our banks but housing finance would have tightened considerably had the mining tax gone through.” Mr Gottliebsen said the country still faced challenges formulating an emissions trading scheme.

Deaths prompt call for road safety SIX DEATHS on Geelong roads in the first half of the year have helped prompt a statewide warning for drivers to take more care on the road. Traffic Accident Commission (TAC) said this year’s road toll was 163 so far, 10 more than at the same time last year.

City of Greater Geelong was equal second with East Gippsland and Bendigo for road deaths in Victorian municipalities from January to the end of June, with Whittlesea’s 10 fatalities topping the toll. TAC road safety manager Samantha Cockfield said road

fatality statistics showed deaths were down among young motorists but up for motorcyclists and “older drivers”. She encouraged drivers aged over 50 to participate in road safety programs for their age group or to consult their doctors on how health issues can affect driving.

Rachael chills out Local Legends WHEN stuck on an ice-capped desert for most of a year, adventurer Rachael Robertson stepped forward to literally take the plunge into her cold environment. That meant diving into -49C Antarctica waters to commemorate the winter solstice during the only public holiday at Australian base on the frozen continent. “It’s been historical for, like, 100 years that, for explorers in Antarctica, that’s what you do on the 21st of June,” she says, nodding. The icy dip is a rite of passage dating back to when famous names like Mawson and Shackleton led the first expeditions to Antarctica. Australia’s latest batch of 21st century explorers take it in their stride when their organs go into shock as the water engulfs their bodies. “I knew I was awake; I knew I was alive,” Rachael chuckles away. “It literally takes your breath away but it was colder out of the water than in when I got out.” Rachael says that after running to a hot tub it takes 30 minutes to warm up from a numbing freeze to a mild winter chill. After the frozen swim, a prepared 17-course meal is waiting in a warm room, with each course representing one of the seventeen gutsy souls left on the Australian National Antarctic Research expedition. The population of scientists,

Cold comfort: Rachael Robertson relaxing on the job in Antarctica, above, and taking a traditional dip in the depths of winter, right. meteorologists, pilots and tradespeople peak at about 80 in summer months when temperatures peak at 7C. Freezing temperatures are, of course, part of the daily grind on Antarctica. Rather than leaving a freezer door open and the heating off during winter at home, Rachael acclimatises by travelling into a Hobart winter for three months. But nothing really prepares for the height of an Antarctic blizzard, she observes. “I hurt my hand because I took it out of the glove because it was cold,” Rachael says. “I went to bunch it out into a fist and I got what’s called frost mist. It’s not frost bite, it’s a stage but I recovered from it. “That was literally two or three seconds of being exposed at those temperatures.” After responding to a newspaper advertisement for expedi-

tion leaders, in 2005 Rachael left her cosy home in Anglesea where she was a chief park ranger on the Surf Coast. Not only did she become one of the youngest to lead an expedition party, the then-36-yearold was one of just two women in 58 Australian trips. She only had to look over her backyard to the next street for advice from neighbour Dianne Patterson, who was Australia’s first woman on expedition in Antarctica. Rachael remembers the challenge of her expedition, particularly a plane crash that left four members stranded on a glacier 400km away. Like a true leader, she stayed in radio contact with them every three hours for the next five days. Rachael’s role overseeing the successful rescue of the stranded group earned her respect

from the team. “I knew the rest of the community was watching me and they were taking their cues to see whether they should be anxious or worried by how I was behaving,” Rachael reflects. “I was careful that I was very visible – I wasn’t going to burrow away in my office. “I made sure I was seen to be talking about an incident, not accident; a retrieval, not a rescue, and just careful of the language.” Other decisions in charge aren’t as cut-throat. When confronted from May to August with pitch darkness, dead silence and stuck endlessly inside camp, life becomes tough and people can turn on each other over the smallest issues. “For us it was how to cook bacon,” Rachael laughs. “There was a blue between the tradies whether it should be soft or crunchy.”

letters Rough injustice AN Independent June 25 story headlined ‘Road so rough drivers crash’ told of ongoing neglect by Bellarine Bayside Foreshore Committee of Management, which is responsible for maintenance of the foreshore road at Portarlington. The condition of the road is disgraceful and, as pointed out by the local police sergeant, extremely dangerous and has remained in this condition for years despite residents’ complaints. In 2006 when this issue was first raised in the local press, Bellarine Bayside’s chief executive officer tried to sidestep the issue, saying it was the responsibility of City of Greater Geelong. Not so, said the City, try Vicroads, which then stated responsibility for the road remained with Bellarine Bayside, as had always been the case. Portarlington Community Association again failed to stand up for the community when it refused to address the issue of danger to road users in the Independent story. The association should show more concern for the daily issues that confront residents, such as the dangerous road. Lack of good infrastructure is a huge problem in our town yet it appears to get little consideration by groups and individuals that applaud and support almost every proposed development whether fact or rumoured. Is it any wonder more than 1600 people signed a petition calling for Bellarine Bayside to be replaced with a body that would respect the community and its needs? Des Badrock Friends of the Bellarine Hills and Foreshore

Hostile MP undeserved GROVEDALE residents are furious about a lack of consultation on the ring road bypass (Independent, June 25), Barrabool residents were not consulted about a massive state grant for the purchase and development of McAdam Park, consultation over schooling issues in Torquay was inadequate and Geelong councillor Jan Farrell called the Barwon Heads Bridge consultation a “Claytons consultation”. Michael Crutchfield MP publicly attacked a Barrabool land-owner who complained about McAdam Park and referred to people with “agendas (that) don’t sit with the rest of the community” in relation to Torquay schools. The president of Friends of the Barwon Heads Bridge described him as “constantly absent or against us”. Mr Crutchfield has repeatedly demonstrated an unwillingness or inability to consult and is overtly hostile to those who disagree with him. The community deserves better.

Only one Links Living in course push THE LATE Kerry Packer readily acknowledged that you only get “one Alan Bond in your life” as a commercial opportunity when he retrieved GTV9 at a bargain-basement price. Albeit on a smaller scale, Links Livings’ purchase of the former Geelong Golf Club while being gifted prime real estate via buffoonery nevertheless demonstrated right-placeright-time private-sector positioning. It was a multi-milliondollar windfall for the developer and, while it irks, good luck to them. What remains in dispute, however, is Links Living’s

More than books IT MAY interest Tilly Burlford (Letters, June 2) to know that in 2010 the largest collection of information in the world is actually digital. It’s my understanding Geelong Regional Library Corporation is attempting to make this information more accessible to more people at Geelong Library by improving computer access at their branches. Regardless of what Ms Burlford and allegedly most people she knows think, it’s just not true to say that borrowing books to read “is the general reason why libraries exist”. It may have been the reason historically but today information is so much more than books. The changes in the Geelong library system have come about because of demands of people in the community, not in opposition to them. I, for one, am glad to see that libraries are taking their role as providers of public space and information into the 21st Century. Of course having libraries located in more accessible areas would be ideal but that’s a question of increased funding and improving the public transport system, which are issues that would be worth taking up with local, state and federal governments, not the devisers of the survey at Geelong Library.

Shire’s Bells delusion SURF Coast Shire is basking in delusion if it believes Bells Beach is a worthy winner in the Clean Beaches Awards. The awards for Bells indicate there was either little competition or the judging criteria was inappropriate.

Kontelj and Barbara Abley are entitled to bi-partistan support because Links Living appears set to renege on its Section 173 (Independent, July 2). An impending state election provides a window of opportunity for the community to marginally square a proportion of the historic green-belt ledger. As the fat lady hasn’t yet fronted, Monday’s public meeting needs punters of all political persuasions, including remaining councillors and a vocal and pro-active Ian Trezise MP, to lend the trio a hand. Richard Worland Manifold Heights

Bells is not clean. Overflowing rubbish bins, cigarette butts, plastic, paper, dog and human excrement and a leaking toilet block confirm this. When I first visited Bells in 1959 it was pristine. There were no human footprints, no rubbish, no bitumen car parks and no steps and platform infrastructure. Bells is a special, sacred place for me and many other surfers. Bells is not about contests and tourism, which are subservient to its sanctity and free-surfing culture. Sadly, while we were privileged to surf Bells in uncrowded waves in those early years, we had no idea surfing would develop with industry, everincreasing crowds, contests and environmental pressures. The uncontrolled and undisciplined use, environmental ignorance and lack of preservation spiralled out of control in the 1970s until Alan Reid and Charles Bartlett laid the foundation of preservation and Bells’ reserve-status achievement. Bells is now at another critical phase. Increasing parking capacity and building more infrastructure is not the answer. We need fresh visionaries like Alan and Charles now; people who enable the restoration of the sanctity of Bells and its pristine state. Barrie Sutherland Torquay

A common concern GEELONG Environment Council continues to express concerns at the proposed development of Belmont Island for a bicycle criterium track. Council has decided this land will be transferred from public open green space for the general public’s use to a single-use facility for bicycle riding and elite events.

Furthermore, we have noted that the Belmont Island land is of insufficient size for the proposed facility, which has been planned to encroach onto Belmont Common and to fill up the remaining unallocated common land not already set aside for formal sport activities. The safety of children wishing to use the new track will be at risk because the proposal will provide limited parking space and is bounded by major highways, which is not ideal for children to reach by bicycle. We have requested to be informed where council proposes to relocate the extremely popular Sunday market with parking for probably well over 200 cars. Where will circuses and similar events be located? The proposed sites will require significant space for caravans and other facilities as well as stalls and car parking. Any proposal to use Eastern Park or other parkland will be strongly opposed. We believe appropriate relocation sites should have been one of council’s major considerations in its choice of Belmont Island for this development and that the public should be informed of council’s intentions. Again we submit that the philosophy of developing every open space for a particular sport use or facility is flawed. Joan Lindros Geelong Environment Council

Safety for the birds IT IS A tragedy that a cat killed Sad Bird Lover’s pet (Buckets and Bouquets, June 2) and, yes, the cat shouldn’t have been out at night. But for the cat to have got at the bird it must have been in an unsafe place. As far as I know, cats cannot open locked cage doors and I doubt Sad Bird Lover leaves windows or doors open, so the cat could not have come inside the house, which leads me to question just how safely the bird was kept. We’ve been through the debate over cats being in at night, so please don’t dredge that up again. Cats cannot take all the blame for killing our wildlife and pets. Owners must ensure their moggies are confined. I obey the curfew for my cat even though I still think it’s stupid but I can understand why some owners don’t. Hearing our precious darlings cry and look at us with huge eyes asking ‘Please, I wanna go out’ is hard to bear. Please, people, stop bad-mouthing innocent cats it’s not their fault instinct tells them to roam. Suzanne Bridson Herne Hill MORE LETTERS PAGE 70

New festival for Anglesea BY ERIN PEARSON ANGLESEA is set to rock out to its first music festival in October. Organisers are promising a “new direction” with a combination of music legends and grassroots talent taking the stage between October 8 and 10. Festival Director Karren Stoneham said Anglesea Music Festival was now an “exciting reality” after years of wishing and waiting. Stoneham said “the concept has evolved” from an existing Anglesea Live platform, which features about three family-oriented shows a year in a function room at the town’s pub. “I just felt that we had so many artists coming to Anglesea Live that we really needed to expand off that,” she said. “It’s really going to be an exciting time for Anglesea.” Stoneham plays in band Mangy Black Dogs and duo Mystique, both of which will appear at the festival. “I’m very in-touch with the

local music down here,” she said. “So often I see band and am blown away and I want others to be able to experience the talent that I see. “Down the track I want people to say ‘Wow, we saw them at the Anglesea Music Festival and now look at them’.” The run to the festival’s finish line has been anything but easy, Stoneham said, with many hurdles to overcome. “The biggest challenge so far has been securing funding and we’re still looking for a major sponsor,” she said. The keen muso and performing arts teacher said she had even returned to study public relations and event management to sharpen her skills for her hands-on role with the festival. Stoneham said Anglesea Live would continue as a “stepping stone” to the new festival. “The line-up we have is pretty special and we’ll be different because we will maintain a focus on grassroots music,” she said.

“This will be our footprint.” Stoneham expected the festival’s “exciting list” of headline acts would be the drawcard for music buffs. “We have the likes of Wendy Stapleton, Paul Norton, Michael Christian and Chris Wilson on top of Dave Steel, Tiffany Eckhardt and Lisa Edwards,” she said. “The big unknown acts are Jessey Jackson, who plays some amazing soul blues, Almacknjack, who play an alternative style of music, and Underhanded, which is a new combination that recently won Geelong’s Battle of the Bands. “The not-so-well-know will get to play with the well-known because at the end of the day it’s all about celebrating all that’s great about our music and our community.” Stoneham said early-bird tickets were on sale, with more information available at angleseamusicfest.com.au or www.moshtix.com.au.

Finally Friday Taste of the country saddled with stars for a show in Geelong THREE of Tamworth’s greatest country and western stars have teamed up to bring the country to the regional city of Geelong. Golden Guitar winners Carter and Carter and Dianna Corcoran have joined forces with 2009 Golden Saddle winner Lianna Rose for an intimate acoustic show. David and Merelyn Carter have not played Geelong for a long while. “It’s our first time playing The Studio and it’s going to be great for our show – it’s a little more intimate and relaxed for an acoustic afternoon performance,” David said. “We spend a bit of time chatting with the audience and we have lots of stories about our songs. We’ll even take requests and we stay and have a chat afterwards.” The three acts perform individually before team-

ing up at end of show for a big finale. Carter and Carter have enlisted the aid of fellow music festival award winners for the sixth Taste of Tamworth tour. “We love coming back to Geelong because we

is one of Australian country music’s most distinguished vocal and songwriting talents. She has won a Golden Guitar for New Talent of the Year in 2004. Carter and Carter have had 17 national top-10 hits including eight national number ones. The duo was recently named Australian Independent Country Music Artists of the Decade. Liana Rose burst onto the Australian music scene in late 2008 with the release of her debut album, Soak up the World, creating a whirlwind of critical acclaim including three Golden Guitar finalist nominations in 2010. Rose won a Golden Saddle Award for excellence in the Australian independent country music scene. Taste of Tamworth will play at The Studio from 2pm on August 15.

letters Debate is over

Response ridiculed OH DEAR, Mr Barron (Letters, June 25) just doesn’t get it. It makes no difference if we “touchy-feely dogooders” use sound scientific arguments or ridicule - his response each week is the same. We could write a thousand words on the five false statements he made then follow it up with a statement about how Geelong and local jobs could benefit from creating a low-carbon future but, really, who could be bothered most of the time? At least ridicule might get a few laughs. Mr Barron’s challenge for a “debate” was equally laughable. Yeah, one non-scientist debating another non-scientist about the science of climate change. Perhaps Mr Barron should go bowling with the

dude who thinks Westfield needs a cinema and a McDonald’s outlet (Letters, June 25). Goshen Watts Belmont

Words of precaution THE WORDING of Alan Barron’s offer to defend another letter writer against “touchy-feely, do-gooder environmentalism” betrayed Mr Barron’s prejudice. Mr Barron was right about one thing, though: “The pursuit of scientific knowledge is a journey, not a destination”. I am not a scientist but, like Mr Barron, I take an interest in climate science. Unlike Mr Barron, however, I have the humility to acknowledge that reading a few books and surfing the internet does not make me an expert. For what it’s worth, I think it extremely likely that humans are changing our planet’s climate. For example, the atmosphere contains around 30 per cent more CO2 than in pre-industrial times, with the

trend steeply rising. How could that not have an effect? It also appears there is a broad consensus among climate scientists that Earth is warming and that human activity is the main cause. Ninety-seven per cent of active climate scientists in a recent survey believe this. For me as a humble layman, the precautionary principle has to apply; if we treat the threat as real and it proves to be false then we have saved some valuable hydrocarbons for future generations and done less damage to our environment but if we treat the threat as false and it proves to be real then we have destroyed pretty much everything we care about and future generations will despise us. Even if you think the odds are 50-50, it’s a nobrainer that you take the threat seriously. Steve Williams Clifton Springs

HAVE YOUR SAY Mail: email: FAX:

PO Box 407, Geelong, 3220 editorial@geelongindependent.com.au 5221 3823 487117-SAH27-10

WHILE I thank Alan Barron for his invitation to participate in a public debate on the anthropogenic nature of climate change (Letters, June 25), I must decline because the debate has already been had. It’s done and dusted, all over, the oil lobby has lost. The scientific debate is over. There is no doubt we are running out of the oil that is destroying our planet. There is little doubt peak oil has arrived too late to save us from ourselves. It is now time to remove our collective heads from the tar sands and work toward a healthier, safer, low-carbon future. Those of us who wish to move toward low CO2 solutions rather than remain in denial don’t want to waste time trying to educate those unprepared to keep up to date or, worse, who wish to derail sustainable solutions. We have to learn how to de-link consumption and economic growth from emissions growth. We need to re-think the very notion of growth and what it

means to be genuinely prosperous. While I’d be prepared to share a cuppa and a chat with Mr Barron, I would not want to provide a public forum for his views. Stuart McCallum Bannockburn

eelong Street Rodders Club has announced it will host the 2011 Australian Street Rod Nationals at Easter. Club spokesperson Ray Bedson said the nationals, now in their 20th year, could attract more than 1400 modified rod entries and a further 500-600 vehicles to the runs. “We are expecting it to be as big as the last Nationals we ran in Geelong in 2003. The event will take over most of Geelong with modified vehicles for the Easter weekend,” Ray told the Independent. The Geelong Showgrounds and racecourse precinct will be used for most of the events. “There will be trade stands, displays and rock and roll dances.” Organised rod runs will also be held throughout the duration of the event. The runs will travel to popular and iconic locations around the region. Ray said the runs would be an excellent opportunity for local tourism operators to showcase their attractions to the national and international visitors. “Some of Australia’s best modified vehicles would travel to Geelong, mostly from Australia’s eastern states. We are hoping for at least 30 to 40 entries from overseas as well. “There’s a possibility some of America’s big names in hot rodding will come to Geelong for the event. “There’s some really high-profile people who have their own rod shows on the cable networks and we are hoping to attract them to Geelong,” Ray said. Motoring and hot rod enthusiasts will get a preview of what to expect from next year’s Nationals at the hot rod show this weekend at the Geelong Showgrounds. The Geelong Street Rodders will host the third annual Ol’ Time Hot Rod Show where the cream of Geelong’s nationally awarded modified vehicles will line up in a gleam-

GREG WANE

hirteen years ago, Grovedale’s Daryl Wilkinson bought an old Falcon from Johnny Major’s yard in Torquay Road for $150. Daryl and his children were into fishing and they wanted to buy a boat but needed an old car to tow it. “I only had a little Laser at the time and I thought ‘how am I going to tow a boat’. So I decided to get a cheap old car, with a bigger engine, that wouldn’t matter if it got salt water or sand on it,” Daryl recalled. “When I got the Falcon home I had a look at the brakes first. They needed redoing so I fixed them up all round. “Then I thought I would tidy up the inside a bit and the seats, so I did that, and suddenly it all went out of all proportion and I kept going with the restoration.” Daryl’s old Falcon was a 1965 XP Futura sedan. It was still very similar to the first Falcon, the XK that rolled of the assembly line in 1960, but Ford had freshened up the XP a bit with a facelift. Gone was the first Falcon’s droopy nose design. The new treatment featured a sculptured side extending to form a brow over the lights and grille making the Falcon appear more aggressive. Introduced with the new XP Falcon range was the prestigious Fairmont, fitted out with all the latest luxury features including power-assisted brakes and the reclining front bucket seats. It was offered as a three-speed manual or 2 speed auto transmission with a six-cylinder engine. Following the launch of the XP range in February 1965, 71,000 cars were built by Ford in Australia until late 1966. The manual sedan’s list price was $2150 and the Futura Super Pursuit was $2954. Today the XP is regarded as the most collectable of the early model Falcons. Daryl’s Falcon took more than three years to restore. “Mine is a four-door Futura sedan. There was a bit of rust in it and I had to put a new motor in it too. “I put in a 6 cylinder and renewed the interior but I couldn’t get the original red seat colour at the time. I had to use a blue for the seats and trim and head lining. “After I’d finished I found out a short time later that I could now get the jam-red original trim colours used on the inside. “I was a bit disappointed.” The result of the restoration left Daryl with a car that was half modified on the inside but the outside was still original. “So every time I went to a car show I couldn’t enter it as a standard original car. “That’s when I decided I would continue with the modifications outside so I put in a

$150 Falcon: Daryl Wilkinson bought a cheap old Falcon Futura to tow his boat.

No boat: The car went through a three-year restoration but Daryl never got around to buying a boat. Pictures Tommy Ritchie 289 Windsor motor and a C4 gearbox and 3-speed auto transmission. When I bought the car it had the original two-speed auto.” When Daryl fitted the new motor, leaded fuel (Super) was still available. “These days you either get the valves done, and on a V8 it could be as much as $1200, but based on the amount of times I drive it, I go for the second option just put in some valve-saver additive and use the high octane fuel the 98 — it runs much better.” Daryl put in an XP Fairmont differential but this change led to him having to change the axles. “I had to put the XP ute axles in it because they were five-stud but I had to change the backing plates on the ute to fit into the end of the tube. “Then I had to take the bearings off the

XP ute because they were bigger and put the smaller ones on that fitted the XP Futura sedan. “I had to get all the journals turned down to modify that part of it. “Eventually I got it all done.” Daryl decided to rebuild the brakes next. “The front ones were XP discs and HP callipers, they are only boosted on the front. “The shoes on the back are of a bigger diameter than the normal ones are on the sedan. And they are a little bit narrower.” Following a three-year restoration period, Daryl ended up with a fully restored car. “But I never got around to buying the boat. “I think in hindsight it was a better option I don’t have a boat but I’ve got a car that is probably more valuable than a boat would have ever been.”

Quality care and service for leading brands of motorbikes M

otocraft is the expert in quality motorcycle supplies, servicing and repairs. Owner/operator Justin Willman has a proven sports bike background in the best that Suzuki, Ducati, Honda, Kawasaki and Triumph have to offer. Justin’s expertise came from working in factory or dealer-based training with leading motorcycle businesses, which is still reflected in his work today at Motocraft. “I strive for quality and quality products for experienced riders,” Justin says. “I really don’t believe in any of the after-market Chinese motorcycling components - it’s pretty much about professional-based work. “I’m pretty strict on quality and how the works are completed.” Justin also specialises in building road-racing motorcyles and professional superbikes. He says his “strongest point” is maintaining, repairing and restoring the most prestigious bikes. Some customers choose to bring Justin their new motorcycles so he can make them “feel comfortable” on the bikes. “I set up all suspension, the heights of the bike, the geometry of the bike, wheel alignment and cam timing,” he says. “What I like to do is to see people feel comfortable. I want them to get the most of that particular bike. I’ve seen a lot of bikes that aren’t set up too well and it’s disappointing to see they sell their bike after they haven’t got the best out of it.” Justin can easily customise bikes right from the seat pad to the handlebars, even the foot pegs. Motocraft is at 10b Maxwell Street, Belmont, just behind BJT Auto. Phone Justin on 5297 9306.

uality workmanship, products and customer service are key elements to professional glass tinting and Tintmaster is the leading name when it comes to window tinting. Lasting quality and skilled tinting technicians offer value for money, which all combine to provide the very best window tinting for your car or home. Owner Dave Kershaw says the installation process makes all the difference to a good tint job. “Not all window tints are the same, there are many different types, styles and films. If you buy a fridge, you go to an electrical store and you get the same fridge anywhere, but with window tinting, it’s important not only what the film is, but how it’s applied and the care that’s taken in the installation process. “That’s the edge we have at Tintmaster. We use the best films and the most experienced and technically qualified tinters in Geelong.” Tintmaster, the professional glass tinting company is Geelong’s only licensed installer of 3M and MEP Australia films and uses the best solar controlled window film from leading manufacturers in the United States. To top this off, all of the work is done in a modern workshop with the latest technology. “When you want your car to look great and to be cool and you want to get the best value-for-money window tint, come and see us at Tintmaster,” Dave says. So visit the showroom at 9 Gordon Avenue, Geelong West and see things in action or call 5221 8877.

Bearing arms to fight cancer BY ERIN PEARSON LARA Sporting Club will tackle its toughest opponent yet this month – cancer. The club is the first in the region to sign up to Cancer Council’s Call To Arms campaign. The campaign aims to raise awareness of men’s cancer. Club spokesman Peter Shannahan said cancer had affected friends and family of many of the clubs 2000 members. “Everyone knows someone directly or indirectly affected by cancer,” he said. “I have a brother-in-law who battled leukaemia, some female friends who passed away from breast cancer and a number

nephews and uncles with prostate cancer.” Shannahan said the club’s annual Lindsay Gillett Cup fundraiser this weekend with St Mary’s Football Club would raise funds for the campaign. “The Lindsay Gillett luncheon and Cup was already on our agenda and working in with the Call To Arms campaign seemed like a good, common sense fit,” he said. “It really is a worthwhile day and we’re looking forward to raising money again this year.” Club legend Lindsay ‘Slugger’ Gillett died from cancer aged 40 after begining his senior football career with Geelong in the early 1970’s. In the mid ‘70s the left-footer returned to his childhood home to

play for Lara before moving to St Mary’s in 1981. Cancer Council spokesperson Irene Manitta urged other sport clubs to register. “Compared to women, Australian men are more likely to be diagnosed with cancer and are more likely to die from the disease,” she said. “The statistics are scary – we all know someone who has been affected by cancer but there are things we can do to change them. “By getting your team involved by wearing a yellow armband and raising funds we can help save men’s lives.” Cancer Council aims to recruit 2500 clubs and raise $1 million throughout 2010.

he was thrilled with his medals but even prouder of Josh. “We’re both thrilled with our medals and I am now looking forward to competing in Friday’s breaking event,” Phil said.

sport Saints to keep Lara on outer GEELONG Football League plays only one game this weekend, with St Mary’s and Lara completing round 12 when they clash at West Kardinia on Sunday. This is a huge game for Lara as it finds itself outside the five for the first time this year but can regain its spot with a victory. In fact, it could even jump from sixth to fourth. Lara enters the game in good touch, having beaten South Barwon two weeks ago. With coach Ben Harris set to return from injury, the Lara team can only get better. Kane Smith, Dave Ibister, Mitch Day and Lee Holmer provide plenty of drive and the side has a good mixture of quality big men and talented small men. Beating St Mary’s will not be easy because the Saints know they can consolidate second spot on the ladder if they win this one. It’s great to see youngster Daniel Jull settling into the side and being one of the better players in what is a star-studded outfit. Matt Dyer, Josh Maddox and Andrew McClean are also at the peak of their game and provide plenty of experience.

Local Footy FRANK MASON With so much on line expect both sides to have a fair dinkum crack in front of what will be a big crowd given it’s the only game in town on Sunday. Lara will be good but St Mary’s will be better. All other sides have the week off and will resume next Saturday.

BFL Bellarine Football League returns to action this weekend after last week’s bye. The game of the round is at Queenscliff Recreation Reserve where the Coutas host Anglesea. There’s no doubt the Coutas are genuine flag con-

tenders this year and play an exciting brand of football. Eddie Grout and Tom Limb are kicking plenty of goals, while Josh Evans, Luke Orvis and Roscoe Holmes work hard around the ground to provide them with scoring opportunities. Anglesea currently sits in fifth spot but knows that Ocean Grove is breathing down its neck and could feasibly take fifth spot by season’s end. The Roos could stop all speculation about this occurring by winning this game. Two rounds ago they were only just beaten by flag favourite Drysdale and followed up by thrashing Portarlington. Coach Luke Primus is in the thick of the action and is surrounded by class acts in Brock Shiels, Luke Norton, Tom Midolo and Marcus Smith Queenscliff at home is always hard to beat but I have an inkling the Roos will win this one . Other selections: Modewarre v AMATEURS, OCEAN GROVE v Newcomb, Portarlington v DRYSDALE, TORQUAY v Barwon Heads.

appears to be settled, with Werribee Centrals, Bannockburn, Bell Post Hill, East Geelong and North Geelong set to fight it out for the flag. Thomson has a remote chance but results would have to start going the Tigers’ way very quickly as there are only six rounds left. The composition of the five may be set but the finishing order of the sides is far from settled, with little separating the teams both on the field and the ladder. Tomorrow second-placed Bannockburn travels to Myers Reserve to play third-placed Bell Post Hill, with the result to have huge ramifications on who will get the double chance in the finals. Bannockburn could even climb to top spot with victory, while Bell Post Hill will avoid dropping to fifth if it wins. The Tigers have impressed all year and are playing consistent football, while the Panthers are a bit hit and miss. Expect Bannockburn to win. Other selections: WERRIBEE CENTRALS v Thomson, INVERLEIGH v Anakie, EAST GEELONG v Winchelsea, Corio v GEELONG WEST, Geelong and District Football League final five Belmont Lions v NORTH GEELONG.

Trout about on school holidays as families get among the action On the bite BRIAN LONG LAKE Bullen Merri has been a magnet for family outings over school holidays, with great numbers of rainbow trout caught. Trolling gold and white-coloured Tassie Devils flat lining has worked a treat, with the majority of the larger fish being taken by this method. Shore-based anglers only need Powerbait in either Chunky Cheese, Sherbet Burst or Rainbow Candy flavours fished on a running sinker rig for fish averaging just under 1kg. Also in freshwater action, Lake Purrumbete continues to reward patient anglers with brown trout close to 3kg. All the best action has been on trolled lures such as SX 40s and Devils. A good number of quality fish have also been taken casting from the shore with lightly weighted soft plastics such as Power Minnows in the Casper clear colour. John Delaney just returned from a few days fishing at Lake Fyans where his bag included trout to 1.2kg and some great redfin, the best 1.6kg. All John’s fish were taken on lures, with the best an SX 48 in colour number 357. Kids still keen to catch a fish close to home over the weekend should try either North Geelong’s Seagull Lake or

In the pink: Jeanette Long shows off a pinkie from Corio Bay’s foreshore. Highton’s St Augustine’s Lake, just off South Valley Road. Both were stocked with rainbow trout just prior to the holidays. Powerbait or worms fished on the bottom is all that’s needed. Corio Bay was quiet in the past week, with the best reports from soft-plastics anglers working either the Geelong waterfront, North Shore rocks or Rippleside Pier. Snapper to 55cm, flathead of a similar size and bream to 40cm were caught using Turtleback worms and Squidgy Critters. Thirteen-year-old Sam Pither fished

Rare catch: Sam Pither with a gurnard from St Helens.

St Helens with only small snapper and flathead to show for his efforts until his rod buckled over with a ripper gurnard of 48cm – an uncommon capture but a great one at that. Dean Osborne fished soft plastics along the retaining wall in front of Royal Geelong Yacht Club where salmon, up to 2kg, were readily available along with many small snapper. Dean managed to catch and release two better snapper of 45cm. Surf anglers continued to be frustrated with heavy ground swells breaking close to shore, making the water sandy and unproductive for salmon.

On the limited occasions when the water cleared the fish were only too willing to come on the bite, as Jacob West found while casting metal baitfishprofile lures from the rocks just past Lorne. In a hot two-hour session he caught and released around 30 fish, with the best pushing 1.5kg. Danny Carmichael had similar results at Artillery Rocks where he landed and released almost 20 fish on bait and lure. Barwon Heads’ estuary had many small salmon on offer upstream of the Sheepwash, with three-inch Gulp minnows in the Smelt colour doing all the damage.

Both the Anglesea and Airey’s Inlet estuaries produced small bream but anglers fishing small, hard-bodied lures grassed some quality fish. Terry Sheldon’s 44cm bream from the Anglesea River was one of nine he caught on an SX 40 in the 308 Pearl colour. Queenscliff cut remained consistent for quality trevally for soft-plastic sanglers two hours either side of high tide or near the yacht club for boats. Xavier Holt again caught gummy sharks from Swan Bay. Fishing after dark on the run-off tide he landed four, the best just on 4.5kg cleaned. Squid have remained in good numbers all along the grass beds between St Leonards and Queenscliff, with anglers finding small, dark-coloured jigs working best during first and last light. Cold weather kept most snapper anglers indoor for the week but not Danny Goodwin, of Hoppers Crossing, who had heard a few fish were biting off Point Wilson. Danny spent two nights on the water with fantastic results. He caught six fish, the best a respectable 6.4kg. All Danny’s snapper took silver whiting fished unweighted. He also lost a much larger fish at the boat when the line tangled on his motor propeller but he estimated it at 8kg, which would have been his personal best. As I mentioned two weeks ago, salmon are still between the Point Wilson pier and Werribee, with numerous reports of fish to 2kg. Both soft plastics and metal baitfish lures have been working.

Cats ‘still feel pain of 2008’ BY ANDREW MATHIESON GEELONG still holds mental scars from its last grand final loss to Hawthorn that “we will never ever forget,” according to coach Mark Thompson. Two premierships since 2007 and 73 wins from the past 86 matches have cast the club’s place in history as one of the great VFL/AFL sides ever. Even an unblemished record against the Hawks in the two teams’ past three clashes has done little to erase those bitter memories. “I don’t think you ever forget,” Thompson said of that heartbreaking 26-point loss in the 2008 grand final. “I don’t think the Saints will ever forget what happened to them last year – and we’ll never forget, either. “It’s either going to be the best day of your life or the worst day of your life. “That (the 2008 grand final) was a pretty bad day for us.” Hawthorn’s finals hopes looked shot earlier this season when the Hawks languished on 1-6 but seven consecutive victories – including four by under two goals

– have breathed new life into their campaign. Thompson said facing Hawthorn at the top of its game was what the Cats wanted. “We don’t take pride in getting clubs when they’re wounded or in bad form,” he said. “It’s quite exciting to play a team that’s in form.” Racking up an AFL record of 505 possessions, Geelong has now gathered five of the AFL’s top-six possession games over the past six seasons Thompson expected replicating last weekend’s performance against the Kangaroos would be tough. “Hawthorn are renowned for their zone defence and the squeeze,” he said. “We watched them play last week and they certainly do it like every other side. “It’s going to be a challenge to get the ball through again.” Thompson also joined the chorus of fans backing the return of Saturday afternoon football to the MCG. The traditional format of the game has been missing from Victoria for the past four week-

ends. “I like playing at the ‘G on a Saturday against a good side,” Thompson said. “I think the crowd should be fantastic. “I know night games are good for TV but I think day games are great for people to turn up to the matches, so we should have a cracker crowd.” Thompson said night games also created another problem – a lack of sleep afterward. Amid fears for Richmond’s Ben Cousins’ health after an adverse reaction to prescription sleeping tablets landed him in Melbourne’s Epworth Hospital, Geelong clarified its policy that each player checks with the doctor to “work things out”. Thompson said he also had problems sleeping after arriving home at 1am from late finishes but encouraged players to sleep-in and avoid early recovery sessions the next day. “The problem with sleeping tablets is it’s not right,” he said. “I have spoke to our doctor and not many players take the caffeine tablets, not many players take sleeping tablets.” 420748-RMB27-10
