YOUR GUIDE TO PROPERTY, NEW HOMES INSIDE TODAY Northern school programs well-being into lives of students, families
Life lessons: Ken Massari serves up improved prospects to students Kira and Alicia. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 53471
BY ANDREW MATHIESON A SERIES of programs lifting students marks at a “community” school in Geelong’s northern suburbs could provide a model to revolutionise education, according to its principal. Ken Massari said the results at North Shore Primary School were leading a community fightback against perceptions of social decay in Norlane. “I think care and compassion is something we all want to bring into the school environment like this,” Mr Massari said. “I would say a sense of knowledge of the community is most important.” Mr Massari said Geelong fruit wholesaler Glynn Harvey was the first to help out with the school programs, donating food to ensure students had healthy lunches and snacks daily. After-hour programs included building bikes, gardening, homework clubs and school sports. Mr Massari said the school was engaging families as well as teaching students. “We’ve gone beyond just the educational side of things to sometimes having to take a role in welfare, housing support, chaplaincy, all that sort of approach, he said. “We’ve brought a lot of other agencies into the school in order to ensure families have strong support. Whether it’s in a classroom or the office manager, everybody in the school has that mindset they can help a child and family.” Mr Massari said staff were trained to deal with a high number of autistic students in a school where 12 per cent of children had disabilities. A government report last year said one third were also “at risk” of harm or further disadvantage. Mr Massari believed the school’s holistic approach was reaping rewards. “Academically, our results are really starting to climb now as we work through providing an he said.
Rail push for Avalon Avalon would be a more practical rail link than Tullamarine so it should take priority. “Geelong’s probably the easiest because we can either redevelop a spur line from Geelong to Melbourne rail line to give that connection,” he said. “That’s more likely to be achieved than a fast-rail link to Melbourne airport.” The chamber listed the airport link as a long-term goal to be built
between 2015 and 2025. Visitors to Avalon have had to catch buses to either Geelong or Melbourne for the past five years passenger flights at the airport. Mr Kayler-Thomson said Avalon’s development potential was significantly ahead of Sydney airport, which battled curfews and congestion. “We have the advantage at Avalon of, if it can be developed as an international airport, having two
international airports in Victoria as opposed to Sydney which is still thinking about whether it can develop a second airport. “We think that’s very important from a leisure and tourism perspective, from a business perspective as well as from a freight perspective. “This is directly linked to internationalising Avalon Airport. We also know how important it would be to Geelong.” Mr Kayler-Thomson said a
recent visit to inspect fast-rail infrastructure to Shanghai airport was “absolutely amazing”. Opposition Leader Ted Baillieu has also publicly favoured the Avalon proposal over Tullamarine. The Liberals’ plan to make a policy announcement before the election. “We believe that Avalon has huge potential as a second international airport and obviously the rail line there produces other opportunities,” Mr Baillieu said.

The chamber included the link in policy papers released this week ahead of November’s state election to influence the next government. The paper listed airport infrastructure as a priority, calling for Melbourne’s two recognised airports – Tullamarine and Avalon – to match Sydney’s direct airport train lines. Chamber chief executive Wayne Kayler-Thomson said
PR
BY ANDREW MATHIESON AVALON Airport should have a rail link to Melbourne to ensure Victoria is Australia’s national entry point, according to the state’s peak business group. Victorian Employers’ Chamber of Commerce and Industry believes its proposal for a spur line from Little River to Avalon’s first train station then on to Lara would also open up the Geelong region to international visitors.

BY ANDREW MATHIESON STATE Government’s Regional Rail Link plan will stop commuter services between Geelong and Werribee, according to a public transport lobby. Public Transport Users Association’s Geelong convenor Paul Westcott said that under the plan Geelong’s new line would not stop at Werribee before diverting to Wyndhamvale and Tarneit. “When we saw the original proposal three or four years ago that was just a line on a map, it rang alarm bells right away,� he said Geelong trains heading to Southern Cross from 2014 will divert onto the Bendigo line at Deer Park station before joining the Ballarat line at Sunshine. Mr Westcott doubted Transport Minister Martin Pakula’s claim that trains from Geelong to Melbourne would run a “few seconds� longer than existing services. “Clearly, the trains that stop at Wyndhamvale and Tarneit are likely to take much longer than the trains now,� Mr Westcott said. He accused the Government of failing to publicly disclose all details of the proposed rail link. Mr Westcott said spending $4.3 billion on the new line was “extraordinary� considering more than 1500 users would be disadvantaged. Students, pensioners, the unemployed and the disabled would be “worse off�, he said. “The only thing the Department of Transport can offer them as an alternative is a bus from Werribee station out to Wyndhamvale on the new line.� Mr Westcott said a bus between the two stations would increase travel by 20 minutes, meaning a onehour trip to and from Geelong. Mr Pakula’s spokesperson said the Regional Rail Link would “untangle� congestion and delays on the Werribee line and service Melbourne’s growing outer-western suburbs. “Regional Rail Link will achieve this by largely separating regional trains from suburban trains for the first time, giving Geelong trains their own tracks into Melbourne and providing improved capacity and greater certainty about travel times for approximately 5550 people,� the spokesperson said.

Leopold land AN INDEPENDENT panel is set to recommend whether 12 hectares of land should accommodate around 300 new residents at Leopold.

Missing: Billy the stolen dog.
Couple in plea for pet lost with stolen Falcon and we always take him with us. “We don’t care about the car, we just want to find him.” Ms Hayes described Billy as a short-haired version of the crossbreed, with the hair on his tail and ears clipped. He was micro-chipped and wearing a collar, she said. Friends and family had been searching tirelessly for Billy. “We’re trying to stay positive, trying to be strong, but he’s such a big part of our family,” Ms Hayes said. “Adam has been driving all night all around Geelong and even to Werribee and Colac. “If anyone finds him please take him to the Geelong animal welfare centre.” Police urged witnesses or anyone with information on the whereabouts of the car or the dog to phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. The car’s registration is ORY 158.

Cull fear for possums with flesh-eating bug BY KIM WATERS AUTHORITIES have warned residents against launching a “possum cull” on the Bellarine Peninsula after the animals were identified as carriers of a dangerous flesh-eating bug. Department of Health said research had found that some possums at Point Lonsdale were infected with Bairnsdale ulcer, which has previously attacked dozens of humans on the peninsula. Department spokesperson Bram Alexander said Austin Hospital research had revealed ring and brushtail possums as the ulcer carriers. The finding disproved a previous theory the bug was only transmitted through contact with aquatic environments, he said.
“More work is required to identify the exact mode of transmission between the environment where the bug exists, how it gets to humans and if indeed possums are a transmitter,” Mr Alexander said. “There are no recommendations from our research that possum control measures should be considered.” Mr Alexander advised residents to “take precautions” against mosquitos during warmer months, saying it was “likely” they were the main transmitter of the bug, whose scientific name was mycobacterium ulcerans. “It might just be possible that the possums have been bitten by mosquitos and infected in the same way humans have been in the past,” he said.
“We encourage people to avoid handling dead possums or their faeces but also to protect themselves against insect bites.” Mr Alexander said the scientists who discovered the infected possums had also developed a “rapid identification test” for doctors. The test was now available in parts of Africa where the bug was rampant, he said. “It’s a huge burden on the population in parts of Africa where they don’t have much health care. GPs on the Bellarine Peninsula are using this test to identify the condition quickly but residents can help by checking cuts or scratches that are sore, especially on their arms or legs, and are a bit
inflamed or not healing quickly. “The bug can be identified within 24 hours and we have good antibiotics to treat it.” Mr Alexander said the Bairnsdale ulcer was usually found in low-lying “marshy areas” consistent with parts of the Bellarine Peninsula. The bug had infected 22 people in Victoria so far this year after attacking 28 in 2009 and 36 in 2008. A City of Greater Geelong spokesperson said the City’s annual mosquito spraying program was “in part” aimed at preventing transmission of the bug. “The program is currently underway and will be ramped up as summer gets closer,” the spokesperson said.
COASTCARE is seeking members for a new branch to help care for dunes and beaches at Ocean Grove. A spokesperson for the volunteers organisation said anyone wanting to join should phone 5226 4669.

BY ERIN PEARSON A GEELONG couple has issued a heartbroken plea for the return of their beloved pet after thieves stole a car with a dog inside at Waurn Ponds. Ebony Hayes and Adam Harrison feared they might never see two-and-a-half year old Maltese-shih tzu cross Billy again as they waited for police to find their car on Wednesday afternoon. Billy was in the back seat of their 1997 EL Ford Falcon when it was stolen from Waurn Ponds Shopping Centre’s car park around 7.30pm Tuesday. Ms Hayes said Mr Harrison left the car running just metres from the shopping centre while he went to purchase food. He had left the engine idling because the car’s battery had run flat just hours before. “It’s awful and I feel absolutely sick,” she said. “Billy was our first little baby

Fired up: Major Robert Charles, at front, with Captain Sam Payne and Sergeant Helen Janner at Fort Queenscliff. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 53385 “It’s been one of the most heavily defended harbours in the British empire.” Ms Fountain said festival events included a Hesse Street parade at 11am Saturday and a military reenactment and gun demonstration at
managed surfing reserve, he said. Last week surfing legend Maurice Cole told the Independent that Surf Coast Shire had laid a complaint with police against him after he carried out “in-house” repairs to a drain pipe at Bells. Mr Cole, who is also a Bells Beach advisory committee member, said he drilled two holes into the pipe to stop gushing water damaging an adjacent cliff face and washing away sand. Mr Cole also revealed other environmental problems at the shire-managed reserve, including black sewage
the fort in the afternoon. Hesse Street would close from 11am to 4pm Saturday for street trading. Saturday would conclude with an evening fireworks display before guided historical tours of the fort and family sport events on Sunday.
Ms Fountain said residents and businesses had given the anniversary “plenty of support”. “The community really supports the fort and sees it as a pretty special attraction, so they’re really excited about the event.”
sludge leaking into bushland from behind a toilet block. “A lot of the issues that Maurice has brought up have been ongoing for a long period of time,” Mr Stammers said this week. Mr Stammers said SANE was confident Bells’ problems could be fixed. “SANE believes the future of bells is looking very bright because of the community representatives steering the Bells Beach committee,” he said. Mr Stammers hoped authorities would react quickly to Mr Cole’s calls for help.

“When people like Maurice, who feel very passionately about the issues at Bells Beach, are acknowledged and listened to it can only help speed up the changes that need to occur,” Mr Stammers said. “The committee feels that Maurice perhaps should not have been reported to police over the matter and that it should have been dealt with in a meditated approach.” Mr Stammers said the shire and the advisory committee were set to meet next month to discuss the shire’s master plan for Bells.

Damage revelations a ‘chance to save Bells’ BY ERIN PEARSON AUTHORITIES should use claims of Bells Beach mismanagement as an opportunity for “positive change” in caring for the iconic international surfing spot, according to a member of the beach’s advisory committee. Gordon Stammers, who is also a member of Surfers Appreciating the Natural Environment (SANE), said Bells needed an ongoing injection of funding to overcome environmental degradation.

BY KIM WATERS IN 1882 the sound of gunshots ringing from Fort Queenscliff would have signalled an approaching threat but this weekend the noise will be a cause for celebration. The iconic landmark is set to host a two-day festival to commemorate the 150th anniversary of military presence at Shortland’s Bluff. Event organiser Liz Fountain expected about 20,000 guests including “high ranking” army personnel. Weekend accommodation was booked out early in anticipation of a school holiday rush to the event, she said. “This type of festival helps the army and the community,” Ms Fountain said. “Shop owners and hospitality businesses have been really disheartened lately with the weather discouraging people from visiting the area. The event will bring a lot of people into the town and they’ll be spending money, so it’s really positive for local businesses.” Ms Fountain labelled the 150th anniversary as a “significant milestone”. “The fort has a really interesting and important military history. For example, the orders for the first allied shots in World War One came from Queenscliff.

LIQUIDATION HOUSE
Health focus for our senator “Geelong really highlights it.” Mr di Natale, a doctor, spent several years working on indigenous health in the Northern Territory and on HIV prevention in India. He contested seven previous elections for the Greens before winning a senate seat for Victoria last month. Mr di Natale said he hoped to advance a policy for a universal dental health plan. “Because I have a medical background, I’ve seen people who are in desperate need of dental help. “The public dental system just can’t help, so there’s a really urgent need to get more public dental treatment in Geelong where you have some of the highest waiting lists anywhere in the country.
PIONEER ORCHID FARM AUSTRALIA’S MOST SPECTACULAR ORCHID DISPLAY AND SALES
“Historically, the dental profession have resisted a public dental scheme and governments have been reluctant to make big reforms. “They lack courage and leadership and I want to put this back into politics.” Mr di Natale said the Greens would push for a “Denticare” system similar to Medicare, offering easy-to-access check-ups and treatments. “The reason we get into politics is because we want to make change,” he said. “The way to make change is to get into positions where you can exercise power politically. “The Greens clearly have huge potential to continue growing in Geelong and in the region and I’d like to be part of that.”

BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG’S dental health and addiction problems are the focus of the region’s new federal senator, he announced in the city this week. The Greens’ Richard di Natale, who lives at Deans Marsh, near Lorne, said Geelong “highlights” the demand for increased funding in health care. “One of the great failings of state and federal governments is that they’ve under-funded the drug and alcohol part of the health sector for a long time,” he said. “It’s very hard to access help for drug and alcohol problems - detox, withdrawal, counselling and substitution treatments – because they carry expensive costs and there is a huge need in Geelong for these services.

BY ERIN PEARSON DEAKIN University students are set to put up “more of a fight” over campus issues after their representative body affiliated with Australia’s National Student Union, according to a representative. Deakin University Student Association (DUSA) has joined National Union of Students (NUS) for the first time in 10 years after months of deliberations.
DUSA president Kali Watson said a new board of members backed the union partnership after DUSA’s “power of persuasion dropped”. “We felt DUSA’s lobbying power wasn’t as strong as what it was in the past, so we had consultations across campuses with representatives of each and made the decision,” she said. “I think we’ll probably see more of a fight now for student issues because will have delegates to the union.”
DUSA has representatives at Deakin’s campuses in Geelong and Warrnambool as well as the university’s distance education program. Ms Watson said the quality of education would be a “big focus” for the association. “NUS ran a quality education survey earlier this year and I think that related quite well with us in relation to the trimester system Deakin implemented.

BY ERIN PEARSON PLAYING on the world stage in China was the gig of a lifetime, according to Geelong musician Jeff Lang. The ARIA award winner represented Australia at a Shanghai World Expo after earning selection from a pool of candidates to entertain patrons at the international event. Mr Lang said he had played in China once previously but the expo gig was a new experience. “It was a good opportunity for me to return to China and expand on the work I did there last year. The shows were on an outside stage with loads of people around to listen.” Mr Lang, a blues and roots artist whose parents still live in Geelong, said he would continue touring overseas after the expo. “France, Germany and Spain are next up in October and November. After that I’ll be looking to write more songs for another album.” Organisers expect the Australia Pavilion at the expo to receive more than seven million visitors from May to October.

Growing up fast: Volunteer carer Samantha Hall with a furry bundle of trouble at Barwon Heads’ Jirrahlinga animal sanctuary.
423352-FB21-9
BY ERIN PEARSON READERS of the Independent have provided names for eight adorable dingo pups at Barwon Heads’ Jirrahlinga animal sanctuary. The readers entered a competition in the paper to name the dingoes after they arrived at the sanctuary in August. Volunteer carer Samantha Hall said the winning names were Ringo, Kianna, Tanisha, Bindi, Yasue, Kimba, Kaleb and Chip. The readers who won passes for providing the names were: Gwen and Bill Connan; Kianna and Tanisha Holland; Sophie Mairos; Bridie Lynch; Danielle Honeybul; Jessica Vandenhurk; Kirra, Patrick, Tahj and Strider of Torquay College; Judith Clarke; and Jason Brown. Some of the winners’ suggested names have been kept on file for future dingo litters. Ms Hall said the 10 and 11week-old pups had quadrupled in size since the Independent’s story on their arrival at Jirrahlinga. They also had “very distinct personalities” “With a dingo puppy, by eight weeks they are entirely dingoes,” Ms Hall said. “Because they eat meat from three weeks of age they grow even faster as well but they’re still cute and fluffy. They’re really wonderful to see.” Ms Hall said the pups had clas-

sic dingo traits. “They do things like chew and jump but will always be shy when they’re unsure of things - they flee rather than fight,” she said. “They’re very placid.” The pups will become part of the region’s first pure-bred dingo breeding program, operated
between Jirrahlinga and a dingo farm near Castlemaine. Sanctuary owner Tehree Gordon said the pups were an expensive addition to Jirrahlinga, costing around $2000 a year to raise. Four of the pups were on display so far, she said.

Big talk: How the Independent covered the bypass noise issue last year.
The Belmont Pallas this week said the cameras had yet to arrive in Geelong. “We made an announcement in Geelong because we thought it was important for people to know this trial was occurring,” the spokesperson said. “Because it’s a trial we only have a limited amount of cameras and we need to move them around. “We’ve already handed out some infringement notices in other places and the cameras will be moved on to all other spots eventually.” VicRoads vehicle management and safety director Don Hogben said the roads authority would use the cameras at 28 sites in Victoria.
He would not confirm when the trial would move to Waurn Ponds. “Waurn Ponds is on the list of places still to be hit and the cameras should move there sometime before the end of the year,” Mr Hogben said. “While there is no specific legal limit on engine brake noise, the national standard for truck noise is 81 decibels and applies to trucks that are accelerating at maximum power. “Noise cameras are intended to improve compliance with national heavy vehicle noise emission levels and encourage truck owners to maintain their trucks and exhaust systems.”

GLGSHW/BPP/2010
BY KIM WATERS STATE Government has failed to deliver on its promise to silence noisy trucks on Geelong’s bypass, according to residents. They say trucks are still ruining their peace and quiet six months after the Government announced a trial of “noise cameras” to crack down on drivers using loud engine-braking near homes. Albo Tatasziore, whose home is 50 metres from the bypass, said the noise was worse than ever. The trucks were keeping his kids awake at night, he said. “We understand that the road has to be there and that it’s done a good thing for Geelong but it’s like they’ve just forgotten about us,” Mr Tatasziore said. “Noise cameras will keep the truck drivers honest just like speed cameras discourage people from speeding. “It’s definitely something we need here and I’m not sure why they still haven’t been used when they were promised.” South Barwon MP Michael Crutchfield first flagged the trial in 2009 after residents expressed anger at the truck noise in the Independent. In March Roads and Ports Minister Tim Pallas announced the “new initiative” to deal with excessive truck engine braking, saying he had “heard the concerns of Waurn Ponds residents”. Mr Pallas labelled the area a “priority” for the equipment. But a spokesperson for Mr

When it’s easy being green
Green day: Bridget Ure is one of the faces driving the push toward sustainability in the Geelong region. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 53222
Stop Looking
BRIDGET Ure was hooked from the day she smelt the fumes of pollution and heard the chants of protest. Living in bayside Melbourne as a pensive 15-year-old, she had become accustomed to sandy beaches and green trees framing her backyard. “It was back when the Alexandra Parade median strips were being removed and was joining onto the Eastern Freeway,” she reflects now. “There was a big uproar about pollution and a few of us ended up making a tram out of cardboard just for the protest. We participated in what I’d say was a passive protest and we were in the paper.” The protest was a turning point, enough to convince Bridget of her new calling. She became environmental warrior, a face behind a cause. The schoolgirl immediately signed up to volunteer countless hours for Friends of the Earth. “I’m sometimes the defender of the undefendable – that’s what the environment is in some way,” she declares.
Local Legends ANDREW MATHIESON “Someone has to stand up and speak.” Bridget is not just about tough words. “I walk the talk,” she happily boasts. Bridget has cut down on her water use and consumer goods, never takes paper or plastic bags at the supermarket checkout and has been a vegetarian for the past 16 years. Now 31, she left the congestion of Melbourne for the surf of Ocean Grove before joining Geelong Sustainability Group. Now Barwon Water hires her to monitor water conservation during tough times. “I love the coast and I like to surf,” she adds. “I also ride my bike from Ocean Grove to work in South Geelong.
“I do own a car but if the bus services were a little bit more regular to Geelong, a bus rather than a car would probably be an option.” Bridget sells the message like a missionary preaching in the South Pacific. She’s quick to point to Easter Island – known commonly for its 887 moai statues – as an example of a civilisation that collapsed because it run down its natural resources. “My point of view is that, regardless of climate change or not, the way we live is currently not sustainable.” Sustaining civilisation is just one challenge. Rehabilitating an ecosystem damaged by the effects of acid rain in a neglected former Communist bloc is another. Bridget was one of only 12 environmentalists from eight countries who Earthwatch handpicked to travel to the Czech Republic for the cleanup mission. They monitored sites around the Jizera mountains near the Polish border to collect water samples in streams, check on
fish breeding and habitats, gauge soil acidity and measure tree heights and oxygen and temperatures levels inside them. “They call it the black triangle this region,” she explains, “because there are three coalfire power stations in Germany, Poland and the Czech Republic. “There’s quite a real heavy industry in this part of the world.” One of the stations’ sulphur emissions was responsible for the acid rain. For decades the water supply was contaminated, killing aquatic life and weakening trees. A world away now from acid rain, Bridget can still raise a smile over her experience with Earthwatch. The volunteers, for one, installed new weather stations for Prague scientists to improve monitoring of temperature, water and soil measurements. “There were some times when I was standing on the mountains, looking out over everything and thinking how amazing it was,” Bridget sighs. “This is the sort of job you do for no pay.”

Kinder closure ON BEHALF of Torquay Kindergarten, it is with great sadness that we say goodbye to our three-yearold kindergarten services (Independent, August 6). For many years weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve offered three-year-old kindergarten as part of Torquayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s early childhood services but due to increasing enrolments and a lack of available facilities Torquay Kindergarten will unfortunately be unable to provide the service in 2011. We sincerely hope those responsible for planning our childrenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education can keep pace with the growth of young families in Torquay in order that the high-quality early-education we currently offer is available for all. In 2011 Torquay Kindergarten will welcome a full house of four-year-olds ready to begin their educational journey, which is an exciting prospect for our service. We hope to continue to meet our communityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s changing and growing needs and would like to thank everyone involved with Torquay Kindergarten for their continued support.

Truth of consensus
ing that carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses will not increase the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s temperature. If only the politicians would understand it is a natural event in which climate change is initiated by Earthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s cyclic spiral orbital swings around our Sun over an 11-year span. If this could be understood we would be much better off applying all our energies to improve our education system. During the last federal election I heard from a Green representative that our Sun is orbiting Earth. Was this the quality of education? Thomas T S Watson Bell Post Hill
Model propaganda OUR POLITICAL leaders must not bet the nationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s economic well-being on contrived results from computer-modelling of global warming. The precautionary principle needs to be applied to our economy, not to trumped-up predictions of changes in the weather. When will scientists of integrity publish an independently reviewed paper based on verifiable, recorded data, not computer modelling, to conclusively prove that CO2 and other so-called greenhouse gases will overheat the planet? When will they publish their conclusion on the proportion of greenhouse gases derived from human activity as distinct from nature? Without both, scientists, economists and politicians cannot assert that a price on â&#x20AC;&#x153;carbonâ&#x20AC;?, which is actually carbon dioxide, would actually solve unproven global warming. Global warming is a figment of imaginative computer modellers. A price on carbon is skulduggery designed to prolong the careers of those involved in what emeritus Professor Garth Paltridge calls â&#x20AC;&#x153;the climate caperâ&#x20AC;? and to fatten the egos and wallets of others at the expense of hard-working Australians. An infamous propagandist once said: â&#x20AC;&#x153;If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it people will eventually come to believe itâ&#x20AC;?. The global warming debate must be truthful and open to dissent, nothing less than a royal commission. Gordon Alderson North Geelong

Give library, heritage a sporting chance
IT WAS with great glee that I witnessed the compromising of the federal independents with the major parties and their efforts to gain a workable majority. Bucketloads of money were promised to the bush, apparently, and the willingness to listen to normally minority players was extraordinary to see. I have long been an advocate of independent candidates and it seems that even more of them next time around might result in even more positive results for voters in the bush and other electorates. Whether good government is necessarily achieved through one party having an unassailable majority may be sorely tested in the current federal period. The fact that Tony Abbott and his cronies can run a legislative agenda augurs well for the nation because it may mean better outcomes and reform simply because of the need to convince the independents of its veracity and worth. In the future, voters might find it prudent to elect
a good number of independents just to keep the major parties in check and to ensure positive legislative outcomes so the lower house may also become a house of review, like the senate. So-called stable government is in no way threatened by the current parliamentary situation. It is in fact healthy because the independents could achieve for their electorates outcomes that may not have occurred under the normal majority system commonly referred to as “stable government”.

Barwon Water is easing water restrictions in the greater Geelong region from Stage 3 to Stage 2, effective Wednesday 1 September, 2010 We thank you for your water conservation efforts and encourage you to continue to save water wherever possible. Major factors that have also contributed to the easing of water restrictions include favourable winter rain and the delivery of critical water solutions such as our Anglesea borefield. It is now safe to ease water restrictions to Stage 2 and these will be reviewed in early 2011.

Worth saving: Mick Robinson at Geelong Heritage Centre. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 49455 small investment in real terms for community access to free reading, learning programs and internet use in a public facility. An investment in a new library and heritage centre
would support our community’s forecast population growth with the arts and cultural infrastructure it needs while providing a balance to investment in sport and recreation projects. I am unashamedly passionate about our community continuing to have free access to the heritage centre’s unique collection of documented history, stored in a deteriorating facility that is Victoria’s largest regional archive. If the funding to match council’s $20 million is not forthcoming we will lose an opportunity to preserve our heritage collection for future generations. After all, knowing who we are and where we came from and preserving our stories for the future is a price worth paying. Mick Robinson Newcomb

POLITICIANS and their opponents exuded a seemingly unending appetite for funding commitments to sport-related projects during the federal election campaign. I hope they do not overlook the importance of City of Greater Geelong’s $20 million commitment to a new, integrated Geelong Library and Heritage Centre. In my 27-plus years of voluntary involvement at Geelong Heritage Centre, there has been a disappointing lack of funding from federal and state governments. The 50-year-old Geelong City Library, despite its significant shortcomings as a community facility, still attracts more visitors each year than my beloved Cats attract to home games at Skilled Stadium! A funding commitment of $15 million from federal and state levels would surely be a

Countdown to festival BY ERIN PEARSON THE countdown is on to this year’s Queenscliff Music Festival, with just 70 sleeps until acts like Kate Miller-Heidke, John Williamson and Little Red roll into the seaside village. New festival director Michael Carrucan announced the confirmed 14th annual line-up would “impress”, with Skipping Girl Vinegar, Mr Percival and Pikelet joining the bill. “We just want to keep people entertained,” Carrucan said. “I love the fact we can put on Public Opinion Afro Orchestra and next the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra. “It doesn’t matter whether you’re nine or 60 years old, there’s something for you.” A self-confessed “80s music reject”, Currucan said the 2010 festival line up would deliver over 80 acts presenting 150 performances in 13 venues across Queenscliff from November 26 to 28. Direct from three years of staging large scale concerts in Macau and a decade at the USA’s Telluride Blues and Brews Festival, Carrucan said even he was looking forward to the long list of artists. “I can see the latest greatest on the contemporary stage with Kate Miller-Heidke or go over and relive my youth with the Black Sorrows and Vika and Linda,” he said. Carrucan promised this year’s festival would continue the tradition of encompassing all types of music from blues and roots through to rock, classical, jazz and reggae. A live version of ABC television music trivia program RockWiz would be a highlight. “It’s been selling out shows all around the country and providing a really interactive experience.” Carrucan was particularly excited about American performer Kaki King. “People will want to check out how she can play a guitar – she will blow you away.”
Something to trumpet: Michael Carrucan promotes the music festival. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 53304 Carrucan attributed the success of the festival to its 500 volunteers. “Anything from wristbanding to helping run bars and stage-managing, they’re on board and it’s great THE INDEPENDENT is giving away two testament to the volunteer spirit we have in this Saturday passes to the Queenscliff Music festival. country,” he said.

The lead singer for the Australian rock band was jumping on the bandwagon ahead of Thirsty Mercâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s gig at Geelongâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Bended Elbow on October 13 to play songs from latest album Mousetrap Heart. He was also reeling from the AFL choosing the bandâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest single, All My Life, as this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s finals theme song. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It all happened so quickly but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re stoked,â&#x20AC;? he told the Independent. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I prefer Sydney but now theyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re out of the finals Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll look at Geelong.â&#x20AC;? The regional tour will hit towns from Dubbo and Hobart to Kalgoorlie and Melton, with Thistlethwayte promising a â&#x20AC;&#x153;feel goodâ&#x20AC;? edge. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Each song on the new album has its own little emotional connection,â&#x20AC;? he explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it really is a get in the car put the album on and wind the windows down and starting driving down the highway and

Thistlethwayte said the band travelled to Los Angeles for the first time to record the new album. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Recording in another country gives you a fresh feeling with no distractions. I started writing music on my main instrument the piano and I natu-
rally write in a different way, with a blues and soul influence, and that is noticeable. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can definitely hear anecdotes of whatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going on in the studios and in LA- itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a very intriguing, amazing, strange place. Some of LA is messed up and other parts show that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the most amazing music hub on the planet.â&#x20AC;? Thistlethwayte said the band
was always happy to hit the road. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As musicians weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re pretty used to travelling,â&#x20AC;? he said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Taking your whole shebang to the people, thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s what touring is all about. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s our thing, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in our personalities, so the gigs always have a very communal feel. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter whether weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re in a small town or big city, you can get pretty addicted to the adrenalin of that.â&#x20AC;?

Get in early and book your CHRISTMAS PARTY NOW!
BARWON TYRE CENTRE is looking to raise up to $10,000 for the Camp Quality Escarpade charity fundraiser. Owner Graeme McMahon and two mates, Mal Stewart and Con Sheahan, wanted to give back to the community. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was something that my friends and I always wanted to do,â&#x20AC;? he says. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s very much like the Variety Bash.â&#x20AC;? Camp Qualityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aim is to ease the pain on kids and burden on families suffering from cancer with weekend camps and day trips away. The Barwon Tyre Centre staff is raising sponsorship and donations before the outback trip through New South Wales and Queensland between October 16 and 23.
Belmont Tyre Centre kicked off the campaign donating $1000 to the cause. Graeme has personally raised a further $2500. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I got a pot at home, I put gold coins in it and youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be surprised how it adds up,â&#x20AC;? he says. Belmont Tyre Centre has collection bins on the premises and receipt books for any large donations. Other businesses that donate hundreds of dollars to Camp Quality Escarpade will get the right to have their name on the car. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Their names stay on the car all year,â&#x20AC;? Graeme says, â&#x20AC;&#x153;and the car is always used around Geelong because it is one of our company cars that we always use.â&#x20AC;? For more information, go to campquality.org.au/escarpade

Kids can Rock “Check out on in holidays the free school holiday fun”
arents can find peace of mind at Geelong’s The Rock Adventure Centre during school holidays. The Rock offers indoor climbing in a safe and controlled environment where kids can keep themselves entertained while enjoying terrific exercise at the same time. Parents can also try their hands on The Rock’s climbing walls to discover a fun way to improve their fitness. Indoor climbing uses all muscles simultaneously while providing an excellent low-impact fitness regimen. Climbers also enjoy boosts to their self-esteem as they overcome challenges and reach their climbing achievements. Parents who don’t want to climb can still be involved by holding their children’s safety ropes while they climb to share in their achievements. The Rock is also ideal for grandparents searching for ways to entertain grandchildren during holidays. Instructors are always available to help show beginners the ropes. The Rock’s climbing walls are designed to accommodate all levels, from beginners through to expert climbers. The Rock also has a huge bouldering area with short climbing walls that are only a few feet above a padded floor, so no safety rope or partner is required. The Rock will be open from

LOSING WEIGHT WITH MANDY FISHER ith all the rain and cold days we may wonder where spring is but the days are getting longer and it wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t be long before the advent of the warmer weather. Unfortunately, as winter draws to a close we often find our girth has expanded due to the eating of heavier foods. We can also have the mentality that â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;one little bit wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurtâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Unfortunately, where food is concerned that is not the case. How often do we get home from work tired and hungry and start dinner preparation, washing and listening to kidsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; readers etcetera. We fly past the pantry or the fridge and grab something and start picking. A few rice crackers, nuts or a sweet biscuit or two and all the while weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re telling ourselves that one little bit wonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hurt. Add all those bits together and you will have consumed as much energy as eating a meal. At dinner we sit down and eat again even though weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re not really hunger due to the food on which weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve been picking. I learnt a long time ago that this is a damaging habit when trying to maintain a healthy weight. It is usually four or five hours since you have eaten lunch, so it is advisable to sit down and have a snack, such as coffee and two plain sweet biscuits, when you get home to take the edge off your hunger. You may say you havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t got time but it takes 10 minutes to sit, have your snack and relax, which could make all the difference to your weight management and you will enjoy your evening meal much more.

very now and then while at a friendâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s place, out for dinner or watching the footy, people will ask me about what exercise programs and diets are the best. In turn, I ask them what are they doing at the moment or what do they enjoy doing? The answers are often puzzling. I have heard so many people tell me â&#x20AC;&#x153;I just want to lose some weight before I start exercisingâ&#x20AC;?. To me, that is a big problem. Far too many people see health and fitness as the thing that fit people worry about. I believe this all comes down to comfort and

For example, small group training might suit people who would like to gain confidence without the price of personal training. There are also walking groups and express fitness centres, which provide a more-personal experience than the traditional gym but at a rate much lower than personal training and in some cases lower than the average gym membership.

Sporty new coupe from Volvo
Racy: Styling of the Volvo C30 appeals to those who like a mixture of sportiness and tradition. On dirt roads the Volvo coupe can be knocked about a little at times, but you can say the same about many European machines. The turning circle of the T5 version of the Volvo C30 is larger than that of the
standard models due to the wider engine, but this is only a hassle in really tight driving conditions. The Volvo C30’s list of standard safety features is extensive and is carried across to the new R-Design.

tures include front, side and curtain airbags, side impact protection system, ABS brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist, ABS brakes, whiplash protection system, stability control and traction control. \Volvo’s high-performance C30 T5 coupe harks back to the days when Volvos were at the cutting edge in image and sportiness. The hot 2010 R-Design version we have just reviewed as part of our road test program attracted a lot of favourable attention, though some weren’t keen on the rear end shape. The Volvo C30 T5 is as much a hot hatch as a two-door coupe. Performance from the 169 kilowatt engine is brilliant, with acceleration from rest to 100 km/h in only 6.1 seconds – that’s into V8 territory. Even more importantly it provides huge amounts of grunt at just about any engine speed for fast overtaking and easy hillclimbing. Getting into the back seats is easier than average for a coupe, but check for yourself as older and/or plumper passengers may find it a challenge. The view from the back seat isn’t too bad, but ask younger kids to try it for themselves as part of your personal road test. There’s easily accessible boot space under that stylish tail and the fact that it’s as much station wagon as coupe means the volume is better than average. Handling of the Volvo C30 T5 is impressive thanks to its firmed up sports suspension. Road behaviour is largely neutral and it’s only when you push it really hard that some understeer begin to show up. But it seldom intrudes and can be easily controlled on the throttle. Ride comfort remains good despite the C30 R-Design’s suspension leaning towards the handling end of the eternal handling/comfort compromise.

BY EWAN KENNEDY imed fairly and squarely at the youth market the sporty little Volvo C30 comes with an interesting blend of tradition and innovation in its styling. The low, wide grille clearly identifies C30 as a Volvo while in profile it has a fashionably modern sloping roofline. However it is the radical styling of the rear of the car that will be the major talking point, and which continues to turn heads three and a half years after its release here in March 2007. The rear is dominated by a large glass tailgate fringed by long vertical taillights that taper up to the roof and is like nothing else on the road. While the styling won’t be to everyone’s taste it certainly makes the little Volvo stand out from the crowd. Although the C30 is Volvo’s smallest passenger car there’s still good interior space for four adults, but four only – there is no fifth seat belt. There’s plenty of front leg and headroom and reasonable rear legroom although the sloping roof will inconvenience taller passengers. All seats are large and supportive. There’s also good, and easily accessible, boot space although the large glass rear hatch window does leave it exposed to prying eyes. Although our test car didn’t have one, a removable soft cover for this area is standard. C30 has a neat, clean dashboard layout the centrepiece of which is Volvo’s clever “floating” centre console that made its debut in the Volvo S40 sedan. Only about two centimetres thick the curved slimline unit can even be customised to suit the individual owner. Being a Volvo means that the C30 is an extremely safe vehicle.

Renault’s supermini BY ERIC BLAIR enault’s Clio is a supermini that is large enough to be used as a family car if the children are in their preteen years. Having said that, in Australia Clios tend to be used more as a premium alternative to Asian cars, generally being driven by singles, or used by families as a second car for the daily runaround trips. In Europe, the Renault Clio is considered to be large enough for use as a family car. Though in Australia Clios tend to be used more as a premium alternative and are generally being driven by singles or couples. Clio is generally reliable and is put together well enough, though often not quite to the standard of the Japanese cars of the same size. Then again, the Renault is so much more pleasant to drive than a Japanese car, particularly if you’re an enthusiast who likes a lot more than simply transport in your machinery. Some cars with ‘Sport’ in their name are pretenders with no extra performance, others are the real deal. Renault Sport Clio certainly falls into the latter category. The extra-hot Renault Sport was in the vanguard of the French marque’s return to Australia in May 2001. There is nothing subtle about this machine, the Renault engineers installed a big 2.0-litre engine into a small, light car. They also gave it bigger brakes and firmer suspension to match the extra power. The result is an excellent hot hatch that’s a huge amount of fun to drive. Though the Renault Sport models tend to grab the limelight and make up quite a large percentage of Clio sales, there’s more to the range than this three-door excitement machine. After the Sport had made its name, the more affordable models began to arrive downunder in December the same year. These were five-door hatchbacks to complement the sporting three-door models and sold pretty well from the time they were introduced. Handling is sharp and pleasant, even in the standard models, simply superb in the Sport. Ride comfort is very good for a car in this class. Rough roads are generally handled with ease, but if you plan to do a lot of bush driving the car may be a little out of its depth. If you are still keen, try one for yourself on some dirt roads, many find it quite acceptable. As well as the hot 2.0-litre engine in the Sport, Renault Clio is also offered with a 1.4 or 1.6-litre powerplant. These units have enough power for most people, though those who really enjoy their driving may wish the engines had a bit more urge. Power is taken to the front wheels only and is delivered by way of a slick-shifting five-speed manual gearbox or a four-speed automatic transmission. Somewhat oddly to the Australian way of thinking, the auto option is only offered with the 1.4-litre engine, not with the larger units.

Both the 2001 and 2006 versions of the Renault Clio have helped the marque re-establish itself on the Australian market. All the more so if you continue to have the car serviced and keep the record clean and therefore do a better deal when it’s time to trade up.Having been back since the first year of the 21st century, the Renault marque is now well re-established in Australia. There are now quite a few dealerships, although they tend to congregate in major cities. We have heard of no real problems in getting hold of spare parts. These are slightly more expensive than similar bits for Asian cars, but not outrageously so considering what you are buying in the way of European image. Insurance on all but the Sport Clio is a little more expensive than average, but some companies will really slug you for the Sport version. When shopping around, check on what’s covered and what’s not before settling for a lower price. Sales of the Clio were disappointingly slow and imports were temporarily discontinued in 2006. The Renault Sport Clio reintroduced the brand in 2008. The first examples of the third generation Renault Clio were imported early in 2010 but are unlikely to be on
the used-car scene in these early days. And during your test drive find a rough road and listen for any squeaks or rattles in the cabin. An engine that doesn’t start easily and idle reasonably smoothly should be treated with suspicion. The sporting versions aren’t as smooth as the standard ones. Check the camshaft and accessory drive belts have been replaced according to schedule, that is within the recommended four-year / 100,000 km period. A gearbox that’s stiff at times could have problems, some are OK once they are warmed up but a bit reluctant to move when stone cold, this is probably acceptable. Quite a few Sport Clios will have been driven hard. Check the condition of the tyres and be wary of any with severe wear on their outer edges. On the Sport, also look for a lot of brake dust on the insides of the wheels, particularly the fronts, as well as on the brake callipers and suspension components. Make sure to follow up your inspection with one from a professional, preferably one with experience of these cute little French cars.

All star: Gary Ablett says Geelong has underdog status for the showdown with the Pies. Picture: Tommy Ritchie 36612 “It’s hard to work out whether you should train hard in that week off or take it easy. “We hope Collingwood will have the same troubles and it will give us a bit of an advantage.” Still, Geelong could be carrying injuries into the game to forwards James Podsiadly (ankle) and Paul Chapman (hamstring).
Coach Mark Thompson earlier this week declared the pair would overcome their niggles sustained in last Friday night’s 69-point smashing of the Dockers. Defender Harry Taylor only had to look back to history when the Cats struggled to win their 2007 and 2008 preliminary finals. Collingwood almost caused the boilover in the 2007 clash but Geelong turned the tables in a 76point thumping last year. The rising centre half-back, who was one of six Cats named in the All-Australian team, also predicted a disjointed preparation for the Pies. “I’m not all that sure it’s a big advantantage. “AFL footballers are very much creatures of habit and we’re very used to playing every weekend and it comes to the stage when you have a weekend off it seems quite strange. “It can be difficult to know how to actually prepare, knowing you’re not playing that week. “I wouldn’t say it’s going to hinder them but it’s something they’ll have to prepare for as a club as best they can.” Cats Corey Enright in the back pocket, Joel Selwood on the wing, Paul Chapman at half-forward flank and Steve Johnson on the interchange joined Ablett and Taylor in the all-Australian side.

BY ANDREW MATHIESON GEELONG players believe behind the scenes that a tough finals campaign places the Cats in the box seat to advance into this year’s AFL grand final. But one of the 2010 AllAustralian Cats still admits they are “going in as underdogs” for this Friday night’s preliminary final against minor premier Collingwood. Geelong superstar Gary Ablett said he was aware punters were backing the in-form Magpies to upset the defending champions. “They’ve had a fantastic season,” he said at this week’s AllAustralian awards. “They ended up on top of the ladder but the great thing about the boys down at Geelong is that we love a challenge – and it is a big challenge for us. “We’re going in as underdogs, so we’ll see how we go.” Ablett said avoiding an unscheduled rest during the finals would toughen the side’s resolve. The Cats had to fight back against a battle-hardened St Kilda a fortnight ago but were forced to snap out of their stupor in a sudden death semi-final win over Fremantle. “We definitely did struggle a little bit to get going when having the week off,” Ablett said.

BY ERIN PEARSON GEELONG basketballers Kylie Morrissy and Jessica Watson have finished their respective Big V women’s basketball seasons with top honours. Twenty-three-year-old Lady Cats championship player Morrissy said the side’s 2010 premiership win had been capped off with her individual All Star Five guard gold. “This season was the first time the Geelong women’s team made it into the finals and to get the award too is fantastic,” she said. “I love the competition. I’m very aggressive toward the basket and being in a team with such great depth means it’s easy to feel natural in game-play.” Morrissy said winners were nominated throughout the season, with coaches, players and officials casting the deciding votes. Big V announced the winners during a dinner presentation in Melbourne on Saturday night. Morrissy said Watson’s awards were “very encouraging”. She hoped to see the youngster playing with the Lady Cats in the near future. Watson took home the Youth League Women Rising Star and All Star Five forward awards. “This is so great to see because the youth league was in its first year in the competition and to have some like Jess really step up and get two awards is great for the program,” she said. “Hopefully we can see her eventually step up into a position with the Lady Cats.” Lady Cats’ Grantley Bernard won a Coach of the Year honour, while Shayne Bow also took out the coaching trophy in awards for the division one men’s com-

Release the trout: kids set for holiday angling MANY options are available for school holiday fishing in both fresh and saltwater. Last week an energetic group of year nine students from Lara Secondary College contributing with the liberation of rainbow trout into a number of our waters. As part of their Connections Program under the guidance of teacher and renowned angler Brenton Hodges, they liberated 800 fish into North Geelong’s Seagull Lake along with 400 into Highton’s St Augustine’s Lake. These fish are purposely liberated to enhance angling opportunities for junior anglers over school holidays. The best method to catch one is to use Powerbait fished either on a running sinker rig or suspended around 50cm below a small float. Rainbow trout were also liberated into lakes at Bannockburn and Lethbridge. Further to freshwater reports, Mick Scott has been having a ball at West Barwon Reservoir where rising water levels have fired up brown and rainbow trout. With the fish taking a variety of both baits and lure, the reservoir should only improve over the coming weeks as the level steadies. Darren Jones fished Wurdee Buloc Reservoir in the past week, landing a brown trout of 2.4kg and a rainbow weighing 1.4kg. Both were taken on a lay-down minnow lure in a natural coloration. Lake Bullen Merri has been consistent over the past few months, with plenty of small rainbows taken again over the past week on Powerbait and larger browns taking on trolled Tassie Devils. Lake Purrumbete rose enough to finally give access to the original boat ramp. Peter Graham of Ballarat fished Purrumbete to land a superb brown trout of 3.7kg, which was one of four caught on mudeyes fished close in to
On the bite BRIAN LONG the bank. Predictably with the high water levels in the Barwon River eels were always going to be an option. Mario Sanchez landed a dozen on Monday night fishing at the end of Fyans Street using scrub worms. Brendan Sheedy and I have been working the streams at Angelsea, Airey’s Inlet and Lorne, which are producing quality bream. We have only been using lures but other anglers fishing with fresh bait have also taken some nice captures. Offshore waters have produced increasing captures of gummy, seven gill and school sharks on fresh bait. Most reports have come from either the inshore reefs or the 32-metre mark. Surf anglers have had a frustrating time with either dirty or sandy conditions but Jacob Forbes found clean water at Stony Creek, near Lorne, where his metal baitfish lures caught nine salmon to 1.5kg. Fred Sullivan found squid willing to nail jigs at the entrance to Swan Bay. Using Yamashita Hots in the 2.5 size, Fred landed his bag limit in under one hour. Also fishing Swan Bay was David Knot who landed and released three gummy sharks and a flathead of 58cm. His brother-in-law
fishing close by also landed a gummy along with a leatherjacket of 51cm. Whiting were generally slow in the past week, with size down as well. St Leonards to Clifton Springs was the productive area. Snapper anglers worked hard for fish, with Darren McLaughlin’s four trips returning just two fish. However, his 8.1kg snapper made all the cold, tough hours worthwhile. Darren has been hounding the Wilson Spit area where he had fantastic results this time last year. Soft plastics anglers found fair numbers of small snapper along Long Reef. Most fish are under 40cm but in big numbers, with Turtleback worms and Critters the best performers. Garfish were taken from the landings at North Shore, with silverfish suspended under a quill float working nicely. The same area produced a few small flathead. Garry Shaw cast soft plastics from his canoe to return with a nice bag of fish, mostly trevally and salmon, from around the moored boats in the grammar school lagoon. Geelong’s waterfront produced a few snapper but not in the numbers normally expected of this time of year. I saw three nice snapper over 3kg each taken from the bay on Monday night but the angler who caught them asked not to be named because his wife was unaware he was out fishing. He’ll be caught sooner or later. Further afield, Bill Heywood and mate Bob McMillan visited Wallagaraugh, in Gippsland, where they landed quality flathead to more than 70cm on soft plastics.

BELL Park and South Barwon meet in Geelong Football League’s grand final at Skilled Stadium on Saturday. Bell Park has had a fairly easy route to the grand final. It had the first weekend of finals off courtesy of finishing on top of the ladder and then had another break last week after beating South Barwon in the second semi-final. The Dragons should be well rested and primed for action but will know South Barwon will be no pushover after only knocking it off by two points in the second semi. The Dragons’ backline has been pivotal in the side’s domination this year. Dean Talbot at centre halfback may look loose but he sets up many Dragon forward thrusts with his excellent reading of the play. He has capable allies in Rowan McSparron, Steve Brown and Lincoln Thomson, who play a bit tighter but also set up attacking moves. In the middle of the ground the Dragons have a bevy of talent in Ben Armstrong, Tim Sheringham, Dam Lowther, Tom Couch and Nick Batchelor. There is also the height of ruckman Zane Vail who makes life a bit easier for the small men. A real plus for the Dragons is the freakish abilities of Jason Graham and Charlie Hallam, who can make something out of nothing. South Barwon is the reigning premier and has featured in the past six finals series and knows how to win the big ones. Last week its experience shone through when it held off the in-form Leopold in the preliminary final. There’s a lot to like about the
Local Footy FRANK MASON way the Swans go about their business, with great leadership from the experienced Mark and Paul Corrigan, Luke Buckland, Adam Wiseman, James Garvey, Michael Barker and Clinton Wells. Apart from their leadership, they are exceptional players, with Wells set to play a big part in the outcome of this game. His ability to control play and kick goals from centre halfforward is one of the reasons the Swans have featured so heavily in recent premiership victories. Like Bell Park, the Swans’ backline is a real strength, with Wiseman and Buckland always willing to back their ability to win the ball and set up the play. Other standout players are youngsters Sam Stavenuiter, Daniel Kee, Mitch Herbison and Mitch McKee. This promises to be a skilful and close game of football. Bell Park has been the standout side of the year and this should transform itself into a grand final victory. Newtown and West Saints meet in the reserves, while Newtown and South Barwon clash in the under-18s. Last Saturday Drysdale came from behind to overrun Amateurs to capture Bellarine Football League’s premiership. Bell Post Hill was never troubled in its Geelong and District Football League grand final against Werribee Centrals.
