PRESSURE DOWN LATROBE City Council is rezoning farmland to the north of Traralgon to allow up to 600 residential lots in an attempt to ease pressure on housing availability in the municipality. Latrobe City councillors have agreed to rezone more than 51 hectares of farm land into a residential zone north of Baldwin Road in Traralgon, which will create between 500 and 600 lots. Council estimates the development will create about three years supply of

residential land, with forecasts projecting that there is between eight to 12 years of land supply in Traralgon. The Latrobe City planning scheme states there should be at least 15 years’ worth of land supply in the municipality. It comes as councillors approved land to be rezoned in Moe to allow for more residential growth, with nine dwellings pinned for Parer Avenue and continuing developments in Waterloo Road. Cr Graeme Middlemiss spoke in favour for the planning approvals at council’s ordinary June meeting, raising the need

for more residential land to be made available. “We have a shortage of readily available housing land in our three main centres,” Cr Middlemiss said. “I’m really happy we are seeing (these developments) coming forward and that land is getting closer to becoming available. We have run out of land and this will be welcome.” Cr Dale Harriman said he hoped the Traralgon development would help ease hot house prices. He pointed out one example of a house

block in Traralgon jumping by $200,000 in 12 months. “We are aware that land prices in Traralgon are getting a little bit out of control. We need this land to become available to take the pressure off the housing market,” Cr Harriman said. “We need to continue to expand our city, I think this is in a great location and makes it easier for people to get into the housing market. “With more houses coming into the market hopefully it will take the pressure off the rental crisis in our area.”

Inquiry: LVA transition report needed By MICHELLE SLATER

THE Latrobe Valley Authority should carry out an analysis of a post-Hazelwood worker transition service and how it could apply in the future, according to a parliamentary inquiry report. This analysis should include the extent of how affected workers’ needs and priorities were, or were not met. It comes as the recommendations into a Parliamentary Inquiry into the closure of Hazelwood and Yallourn Power Stations was handed down last week. The Inquiry received 63 submissions with public hearings held in the Latrobe Valley from expert and local witnesses.

The committee heard that it would be extremely difficult to replicate Hazelwood’s Worker Transfer Scheme for the upcoming closure of Yallourn. This was because Loy Yang A and B are the only remaining coal-fired power stations available for workers to transfer to. The report also recommended the Victorian government continues to work with energy companies and education and training providers to help power station workers find new jobs. LVA chief executive officer Chris Buckingham said that a similar scheme would be difficult, suggesting that focusing on transition to other industries is a better long-term approach for supporting workers. “It is going to require us to think probably more deeply about, once again, what we are heading

towards as much as what we are dealing with right in front of us,” Mr Buckingham told the panel. “Taking that longer term view around transition, knowing that we have oil and gas, forestry and brown coal all going through fairly significant changes over the next 10 years.” The report also found that international transitions away from coal indicated that the Valley’s coal-fired power industry will not be replaced by one single industry or large-scale employer. Instead, a combination of new businesses and industries will be required to offset the economic and social changes and impacts of the closure of the Hazelwood and Yallourn mines and power stations. The inquiry found the LVA was committed to

No cigar: Churchill and District Community Association president Margaret Guthrie by the town’s official symbol. photograph michelle slater

A RENOWNED Churchill town landmark is in the process of being formally named and recognised after locals had been incorrectly referring to it as the Big Cigar. Latrobe City Council will now formally adopt the name Churchill Town Symbol to correctly reflect the architect’s original intentions for the structure. Council will approach the Victorian Registrar of Geographic Names to have the correct moniker enshrined in history. The Churchill and District Community Association (CDCA) had been pushing for the unnamed structure to be formally known as Churchill Town Symbol. The CDCA is also hoping for Latrobe City to install a plaque for locals to properly understand its history, as well as to restore its lights so it can be fully illuminated at night. CDCA president Margaret Guthrie said the town symbol was never formally registered after it was built by the housing commission in 1967. “Many people think it’s called the Big Cigar under the mistake that it was designed to look like a cigar, as Winston Churchill smoked a cigar, but this is not the case,” Ms Guthrie said. “It was designed to be uplifting and to inspire residents to look towards the heavens. It’s a landmark, a beacon.” Churchill was indeed named in honour of the British prime minister who died in 1965 when the first residential developments were in place. There had previously been a fountain in memory of Winston Churchill in the town’s West Place courtyard before it was removed for re-development. Ms Guthrie said the architect wanted something in place so the burgeoning town could be seen from a distance. She said there was some conjecture at the time between locals who would rather have a town swimming pool built than the town symbol. “People have been making up their own interpretation of this landmark, but it’s all a myth, if you call it the cigar, everyone knows what you are taking about,” she said. “We want to record accurate history, not myth so let’s seize this opportunity now before it disappears into the mists of time.”

A PROLONGED unplanned outage at Loy Yang A has now been extended to late-September after technical assessments have been carried out on Unit 2.. Operator AGL is blaming global supply issues and the availability of specialised materials for the extended outage after it found the generator rotor had failed. AGL had completed a review of the scope of works when the unit went offline on April 15 following an electrical fault with the generator, with initial estimations it would return to service on August 1. “Since the initial outage, AGL has been working closely with its engineers and suppliers to plan and implement the necessary works to enable a safe and reliable return to service,” the company said in a statement. AGL will provide a financial impact on the outage in the new financial year and reiterated that it cannot be recovered on insurance. The Loy Yang fault comes on top of additional outages at AGL’s Bayswater and Liddell coal plants, with about 25 per cent of coal power capacity in the National Electricity Market down or offline. Meanwhile, the energy giant has announced more company heads are departing with chief executive-elect of AGL Australia Christine Corbett stepping down on June 24. She was due to move into the role as part of the company’s proposed demerger, but made the decision to leave after AGL announced it was ditching the demerger last month. Her departure follows the resignation of four other senior AGL heads including board chair Peter Botten and chief executive/managing director Graeme Hunt. “I am very proud of the work my team and I have done over the past 12 months on the AGL Australia strategy which will be an important input into AGL’s review of its strategic direction,” Ms Corbett said. Greenpeace Australia Pacific senior campaigner Glenn Walker said AGL’s poor corporate governance and reliance on unreliable coal generators stations was directly impacting the cost of living. “Rather than act in line with the energy transition, AGL instead wasted years and millions of dollars on a dodgy demerger which was never going to work,” Mr Walker said.

regional transition using smart specialisation identifying the region’s economic strengths and focus government support on those areas. But it also recommended the LVA better inform the community of its aims and how it will achieve them. Nationals Member for Eastern Victoria Melina Bath established the Inquiry after EnergyAustralia announced it was bringing forward the closure of Yallourn to mid-2028. Ms Bath said the final report had ignored the evidence and failed to address the future economic transition of the Latrobe Valley. She said so far, the LVA has not delivered a transition plan for the Valley, nor could quantify out of the 4000 jobs it had created, how many were on-going or full time jobs, or in what industries.

Council proposes House sale By MICHELLE SLATER

LATROBE City Council is seeking public feedback in its proposal to sell former aged care home Hazelwood House in Churchill to provide accommodation for homeless young people. Quantum Support Services is intending to purchase the building from Latrobe City to create 40 self-contained units for homeless and disadvantaged young Gippslanders. The plans include building extra kitchen, laundry and education areas to give young people a place to live for between 12 months and two years. Quantum chief executive officer Natalie McDonald said the Gippsland Youth Foyer would be supervised by trained staff 24 hours a day, with programs providing education, training and mental health support. Ms McDonald said young people would be required to pay affordable rent to equip them with the skills and a rental reference to transition into their own accommodation. “There is nothing like this in Gippsland. We run

a youth refuge for crisis accommodation, but there are only six beds and there’s a significant waiting list,” Ms McDonald said. “We are trying to get them into homes but there isn’t enough supply, by providing potentially 40 apartments this will free up accommodation for other people as well.” The Churchill community originally fundraised for Hazelwood House to provide local residential aged care, but it closed down in 2019 and was sold to Latrobe City the following year. Since then, it has cost Latrobe City approximately $100,000 to maintain the land and building. Latrobe City put out an expression of interest to find a suitable buyer when it went on the market last year, and received two proposals with one from Quantum and another from a private developer. But Quantum’s proposal is still in the public feedback phase and if approved, Hazelwood House would be sold for no less than the current market value as assessed by an independent valuer. Latrobe City has stressed that any money raised from the sale would be put back into Churchill.

Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said Quantum’s proposal would provide a valuable service for the region. “We are aware of the need for this kind of accommodation within our region, offering young people with appropriate support that’s still close to home,” Cr O’Callaghan said. “It will also create employment opportunities and pathways for training.” Churchill and District Community Development Association president Margaret Guthrie said if it was not to be used for another aged care facility, then it should be used for another community service. “We will be making a submission in support for this proposal as no one wants to the building to become derelict, it’s been vacant long enough,” Ms Guthrie said. “Quantum’s proposal will support the community, there is a pressing need for accommodation programs in the community and Quantum is a local agency with a wealth of experience.”

Long-term solutions needed for homeless GIPPSLAND homeless providers are looking for more long-term solutions as state government funding for crisis accommodation is about to tumble back to pre-COVID levels. The state government has allocated $165,000 for Gippsland homeless services under the Housing Establishment Fund. HEF provides crisis accommodation such as a hotel or motel room amid critical housing shortages in the Latrobe Valley. This was expanded in COVID lockdowns to help vulnerable people comply with stay at home orders, but it’s being knocked-back from July. Gippsland Homelessness Network co-ordinator Chris McNamara said post-COVID, there were now fewer options for locals to find a roof over their heads beyond a few nights in a hotel. Ms McNamara said there were 17 families including 52 children in motels across the Valley

being assessed to find more permanent housing. “This funding is welcomed by the sector, but this money won’t last long, we hope it will last until June 30,” Ms McNamara said. “We are working very hard to find accommodation for people as they leave crisis accommodation.” Ms McNamara said there had been “many, many” Gippsland families living in motels for months at a time in the pandemic. “Things have changed since COVID and there is not enough public housing or private rentals to provide any prospects of secure housing,” she said. “In the past there may have been transitional housing, but this has bottlenecked. Options such as rooming houses are expensive for people on low incomes and unsuitable for families. My view is we need more substantial housing as motels are not places where kids should be living long-term.” Ms McNamara said there were about 20 or 30 applications for a single vacancy for transitional

housing, and fewer motel rooms available as more people are hitting the road and booking holidays. The issue was raised by Member for Morwell Russell Northe in parliament last month, who called for a review into Housing Establishment Fund levels. Mr Northe said he was “concerned that service providers will only receive HEF funding at pre-COVID levels and this would just lead to an unworkable scenario for providers and their clients”. A state government spokesperson pointed to a $60 million investment in social and public housing being built in the Latrobe Valley. “There are already 28 new homes completed in Latrobe, with a further 34 underway, creating 200 local jobs,” the spokesperson said. “Over 2021-22 the government delivered more than $12 million in specialist homelessness funding to the Inner Gippsland area, including support to keep people safe during public health restrictions.”

Farewell to beloved market By MICHELLE SLATER

A MUCH-loved Latrobe Valley institution came to a close on Sunday as the Morwell Sunday Market traded for the last time with the land being slated for housing developments. Stallholders have been given until the end of June to clear out of the Latrobe Road site and spent last week picking through their sheds in preparation for the final day. The market has been the mainstay over the decades for people to rifle through stalls and find anything from local produce, collectibles, second hand, vinyl records, clothes, tools and even live chooks. Joanna Todd sold bric-a-brac at the Morwell Sunday Market for the past 15 years and used Sunday to farewell her fellow traders. “I think Morwell will really miss this, there’s a lot of really sad people. A lot of people come here for their day of socialisation. Some are lonely and come here for a cuppa and a chat,” Ms Todd said. “It’s a community and it’s like a family, you get to know the people here.” The 6.8 hectare site was once home to the Morwell Panoramic Drive-In, but is now being earmarked to develop 65 houses as part of the Panorama Estate. The market site forms part of the Morwell West development plan, which was endorsed by Latrobe City Council in 2016 to open up more residential land. Latrobe City issued a permit to allow the land to be subdivided into residential lots, but the developer still needs to meet more conditions before titles can be issued. Ms Todd’s stall was “choc-a-block” full of items which she had to either give away, throw out or sell at heavily reduced prices as she prepares to vacate. In the meantime, Ms Todd said some stallholders were looking to pool their resources to move their wares to another premises, such as a warehouse, shed or shopfront to keep trading. Ms Todd told The Express she was one of about 50 remaining stallholders at the market which started up more than 30 years ago after the drive-in closed down. She said over summer some stallholders waited at the gate at dawn to try and find a spot to trade on the day. “One of the stallholders here used to go to the drive-in with her boyfriend,” she said. Ms Todd said the market often raised funds for charity and also provided an opportunity for people to find affordable essential household items. “We had one couple with three kids come here and they didn’t even have a bed, we sold them furniture real cheap. Another bloke came here freezing and found a cheap heater,” she said.

Tears for Trish By DANIEL JOHNS

EVEN in her final days, Trish Sweeney put others first. Such was the selfless nature of the Traralgon real estate pioneer and community champion, who passed away peacefully on June 9 after a four-year battle with ovarian cancer.

She was 77. Whether it was prepping meals at Mick’s Kitchen for the less fortunate, sewing cushions for women living with breast cancer, establishing a Gallipoli Lone Pine Remembrance tree Memorial at Victory Park or sending one of her trademark cards to brighten someone’s day, Trish was driven by an intense passion – and compassion - for her community.

Born Patricia Aileen Graham in Traralgon on November 11, 1944, she was the eldest of two daughters to Aygee Soft Drinks founders Arch and Aileen Graham.

Trish became known for her integrity in an at-times ruthless industry, enjoying successful stints at L J Hooker and Keith Williams during her 28-year career. She married the “love of her life” Leon Sweeney in 1965, with the pair having two daughters – Rachael and Dianne. Her retirement years only accelerated her appetite for community work, and Trish threw herself into supporting a host of local organisations, from continuing her 20 year involvement with the Traralgon Lions Club, to Mick’s Kitchen and breast cancer cushions for the Pink Ribbon Ladies. Exemplifying her caring nature, Trish would regularly drop into Traralgon Police Station with a basket containing 101 Tim Tams and a card with 101 reasons why we love our police, earning her the nickname “the Tim Tam lady”. But it was her extraordinary personal touch – always engaged, always considerate, always bringing people together – that will live longest in the memory of many locals. “Mum really impacted everyone she met because she had a special knack of knowing what was important to someone,” Trish’s eldest daughter Rachael Sweeney said. “It was never about the accolades or the appreciation with Mum, it was always about improving the lives of others and making them feel better about themselves in some way. “She liked to make people happy and didn’t expect anything in return.” She had an indefatigable heart, performing regular random acts of kindness.

“If she drove past a house she sold decades earlier and saw their gardens were looking beautiful she would deliver a packet of seeds or some potted colour to their front door with a little note,” Rachael said.

“She went through four years of chemo and radiation therapy but even in those final weeks, she would deliver thank you gifts to the nurses. “Mum made the world a better place and we hope others can honour her by performing their own random acts of kindness, no matter how small, every time they think of her.”

A third generation local, Trish was also the town’s unofficial tourism ambassador, extolling the virtues of Traralgon to anyone that would listen.

ON NOW

Outside of her home town, her passions were deep and varied – her family, friends, travel (especially to Phillip Island), shopping and her beloved Essendon Bombers all figured prominently. Trish will be farewelled at St Michael’s Church in Traralgon from 10.30am on Thursday, June 16. Her family has requested donations to the Ovarian Cancer Research Foundation OCRF in lieu of flowers.

Trish Sweeney is survived by her mother Aileen Graham, sister Carole Vanderfeen, husband Leon Sweeney, children Rachael Sweeney and Dianne Sweeney-Johnston, and grandchildren Piper, Willow, Archie and Milla.

Clean-up for many continues today

By MICHELLE SLATER

LOCAL residents are still clearing properties and some face ongoing trauma 12 months after a savage storm ripped through Victoria, leaving a trail of destruction. The Latrobe Valley was torn to shreds on June 9 last year, hammered by intense winds and pouring rain that caused flooding, giant trees ripped from their roots, and even mining halted at Yallourn. Boolarra South orchardists Michael and Sandy Boka marked exactly a year to the day of the storm anniversary when contractors came to clear heavy fallen and dangerous trees from their property. The couple estimated about 100 giant eucalypts came down that night, leaving massive holes in the ground, trashing fences and orchard infrastructure. Similar scenes still bare out across the ranges with countless, maybe hundreds-of-thousands of trees down, paddocks apart up by landslides and ruined roads awaiting repair. “It had been depressing going up our driveway and seeing all these logs still on the ground, there’s only so much we could do by ourselves,” Ms Boka said. “We had a big wind about a week ago, it was gusting through the night and I thought ‘please no’, it took me back to that memory and I pray and hope it won’t happen again.” South Ward Community District Recovery Committee chair John Harris said many landowners were unable to tackle the volume or size of downed trees on private land by themselves. He said they were awaiting details on potential state government funding for fallen tree salvaging on private land, but were also hoping to carry out a survey to ascertain what resources were needed. “Some of the trees are a metre in diameter and an ordinary chainsaw can’t deal with this, they need specialised machinery,” Mr Harris said. “Many people at the time feared that trees still standing were in real danger of coming down the next time around.” Meanwhile, some Traralgon residents who were

It comes as Emergency Management Victoria is yet to hand down the findings of a review into the failures of the emergency warning system that left residents knee deep in water. Traralgon couple Ingrid and Paul Snell had little-to-no warning that a flood was coming before they waded through a foot of water through their

house near the town’s recreation reserve. Mr Snell believed the stress of the situation contributed to his third cardiac arrest as the couple undertook repairing their flood damaged home themselves. “Our neighbour rings us if we get rain asking if we will flood, we’ve had all this rain in the last couple of days and I must admit I go down to the creek and look,” Ms Snell said. “I know there is talk of a Traralgon Bypass to help with flood mitigation, but this is not a

short-term solution, we need something now, but I don’t think there is a short-term solution.” According to Latrobe City Council, 2250 local residents were registered for help with temporaryaccommodation,insuranceassistanceor dangerous tree removal. Council has assessed 44 outstanding landslides on local roads, but many of these are worsened in heavy rain and need state government funding before council can carry out complex repairs.

Kindergarten funding boost

By JACI HICKEN

Looking back: Traralgon woman Ingrid Snell puts things up high as flood waters inundate her home. Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said she was aware of the ongoing impacts as recovery efforts continue a year on. Cr O’Callaghan said Latrobe City remained in talks with Emergency Management Victoria and local residents to address resources for ongoing recovery and mitigation for future events. “We are still hearing from community members with concerns, they worry and get nervous watching forecasts more than they

normally would,” Cr O’Callaghan said. “There is a persistent reminder of what that event was, and this is significantly challenging.” Emergency Management Victoria has assured that the results of a statewide Extreme Weather Event Community Report is in its final stages and will be handed down shortly. An EMV spokesperson acknowledged many communities were still recovering and the department was continuing to do all it could to support them.

“Victoria’s emergency management sector will continue to learn and improve together as we strive to do our best working with the Victorian community before, during and after emergencies,” the spokesperson said. “We are working through the lessons with relevant agencies, departments and stakeholders and are committed to progressing any key priorities outlined in the community report.”

ST Paul’s Anglican Grammar campuses in Drouin and Traralgon will receive $2.6 million in funding to expand kindergarten services. The Traralgon campus of St Paul’s will receive $600,000 to create 22 new places in their three and four-year-old kindergarten program and childcare, while $2 million will fund a proposed Early Learning Centre in Drouin. The school will be co-contributing $530,000 to the expansion of the Traralgon campus. The additional funding comes from the state government’s Victorian School Building Authority (VSBA) ‘Building Blocks: Capacity Building’ scheme. St Paul’s principal Cameron Herbert said the school was “delighted to be part of the state government’s initiative to increase the number of three-and four-year-old kindergarten places across Victoria.” Early Childhood Minister Ingrid Stitt last week announced a $10 million package that will fund 300 new kindergarten spots for three and four-year-olds across that state. “We’re delivering more funded kindergarten places across Victoria because getting kids into early learning will give them the best start to life,” Ms Stitt said. “We’re proud to be boosting early childhood services all across the state – this funding will help more families in Traralgon access kindergarten to give their kids the best start to life.” Labor Member for Eastern Victoria Harriet Shing is looking forward to helping more of our ‘littlest Victorians’ take part in kindergarten programs for three and four-year-olds. “These investments in extra kinder places for the Latrobe Valley will help more of our children be part of our ongoing investment into three and four-yearold kinder programs,” Ms Shing said. As part of the program, the VSBA is also building a new $5.35 million Integrated Early Learning Centre on the Morwell Park Primary School site. “Building a kindergarten and a primary school in the one central location is a sensible and forwardthinking approach to planning new education infrastructure,” Ms Shing said. “It’s already proven a lifesaver at Morwell Central Primary (School) where parents have been able to ditch the dreaded double drop-off. “More students across the Latrobe Valley will all enjoy new bright, modern, accessible, and fun facilities.”

Richard’s service recognised

Council endorses its annual budget

By JACI HICKEN

By MICHELLE SLATER

LATROBE Valley community worker Richard Elkington has been awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) as part of this year’s Queen’s Birthday Honours List. A member of the Freemasons for more than 40 years, Mr Elkington has had multiple roles including Regional Development Australia Gippsland chair, Mid Gippsland Football League treasurer, and enjoyed a long career working in the Latrobe Valley power industry. Mr Elkington was surprised he had been honoured for his service to the community. “Nothing I have ever done in anything, whether it’s been at the community level, business or in masonry has been with the aim of recognition, because what interests me in life is ideas, getting things done and working with people,” Mr Elkington told The Express. Born in Yallourn and raised in Newborough, Mr Elkington began his career in the power industry as a cadet engineer before later moving into management positions at Yallourn and Loy Yang power stations. He also was a member of the first Regional Development Advisory Committee under then Premier John Brumby in 2003. “I was a rep from Gippsland, which is really exciting work and I stepped off after five years to allow someone else, who was keen to participate,” Mr Elkington said. “Again it’s not about me, it’s about outcomes for Gippsland, and then I became the chair of Regional Development Australia Gippsland in 2009 and I stayed with that until the end of 2021. “At the same time all this was happening, I was on the Latrobe Valley transition committee that was about creating a future for the Latrobe Valley. “I have been involved in a lot of exciting projects, for example, we worked closely with local government, with the Committee for Gippsland and the predecessor of regional partnership, the regional management forum.” Mr Elkington, an avid supporter of Morwell East Football-Netball Club, spent 18 years as treasurer of the Mid Gippsland Football League, and was awarded life membership of in the late 1980s. “They advertised for a treasurer in 1978 and I had been the (Labor) Federal candidate for McMillan in 1977, and Jimmy Ryan, who was the president, I think he was the president of the Morwell East Footy Club, he was on the executive of the footy league,” Mr Elkington said. “So he said, come and join us - it will give you something to do in the community. “So I applied and got the job, so not only was I the treasurer of the Mid Gippy Football League, but I was also on the executive and the administrator of the players’ insurance fund. “I must admit I enjoyed going to the opening of the seasons, I liked going to the annual vote count, and I liked going to executive committee meetings because it was completely different from what I did during the day. “The thing about football people is that they are very passionate, especially if you want to be on a committee, there are some really dedicated people.” Asked why he originally joined the Freemasons, Mr Elkington said he almost joined another community organisation. “I was also interested in joining Rotary, but the Masons asked me first, so I joined them,” he said. “I was looking for an organisation in which I could reinforce a set of principles and values in me. Some of my friends were in the Freemasons and they suggested that I could join.” When becoming a member of the Freemasons, members join a craft lodge and then move through the organisation, joining different lodges including the Mark Lodge and Royal Arch.

LATROBE City ratepayers will be forking out an extra $31.70 a year for their bin collections and rates will increase by 1.75 per cent, as outlined in this year’s council budget. Latrobe City Council endorsed its annual budget this month, which includes $40 million in capital works to be carried out across the municipality. The waste collection increase incorporates expanded coupon and kerbside hard rubbish collection services, as well as increases in state government landfill levies handed down onto local councils. Major projects include the $2.5 million Kernot Hall upgrade, the $5.2 million stage two of the Moe Revitalisation Project and $3.6m to complete Stage one of the Gippsland Logistics Precinct. Capital works include $19m to renew existing infrastructure including $15.5m on roads, with $5.1 million to install signals on the Marshalls and Traralgon-Maffra road intersection in Traralgon. The budget also includes farm rates differentials as well as variable rates for derelict properties so land and buildings don’t pose a risk to public safety or amenity. Cr Dale Harriman spoke in favour for the budget but raised concerns over the impacts of increasing fees and charges being pushed by inflation. “Unfortunately fees and charges have to go up, and I’m sure we’ve all had a whinge and moan about how much it is to get a kid into a pool or how much it cost to get into a basketball facility,” he said. “We understand that, and we’ve done our best to rein in these costs and keep them minimal as possible and we continue to do that by making savings wherever possible.” Cr Harriman pointed out that council officers had looked at priority spending in an environment of monetary constraints due to rates capping. “Sometimes we can’t get to the facilities, roads, footpaths or tracks as quick as we’d like but we take into consideration how it can affect people,” he said. “It’s not a case of having a preference for a particular sport or town or area, this is something our officers go through in great details and bring to us a list of projects they see rated on merit or most deserving.” The budget also includes an operating surplus of $3.2 million, after raising rates and charges of $88.6 million out of total revenue of $139.3 million. When excluding non-recurrent capital funding and developer contributions, the budget projects underlying operating deficit of $6.3 million.

Honoured: Richard Elkington has been awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia in this year’s Queen’s Birthday honours list. Mr Elkington, a well-known figure throughout the Latrobe Valley and wider Gippsland region, paid tribute to his wife Kathleen and family for their support after learning of the accolade. file photograph Mr Elkington joined the craft lodge at Heyfield in the early 80s before soon becoming a part of the Mark Lodge and Royal Arch. “There were only two jobs I ever wanted; Grand Lecturer in the Mark and the second was Third Grand Principal in the chapter,” he said. “I became Grand Lecturer in the Mark in the early 2000s, and did that job for six years running. “I became the junior Grand Warden of the Mark in 2010, then Third Grand Principal in 2012 and at the same time I was in all these other Masonic orders. “So I achieved my objectives about what I wanted to be in life.

in my late 40s, then I became the Third Grand principle when I was 61.” In accepting the OAM, Mr Elkington paid tribute to his wife of 49 years Kathleen, their sons Jeremy and Andrew and their families, as well as professional and community colleagues. “My wife should take a lot of credit for me being able to do what I had to do,” Mr Elkington said. “My wife was brought up in Morwell, I was brought up in Newborough and when I was in my early 20s we went to Traralgon - this is my community, this is where I belong amongst the people I grew up with. “At the end of the day we are all heading towards the same objective and that is to make this a better place - a better place to live, bring up kids, educate them and liveable.”

Drones deployed

By LIAM DURKIN

DRONES are being deployed by local police across the Latrobe Valley to help keep the community safe. The Morwell Family Violence Unit recently utilised drone technology to assist with a special operation in catching those it believes are likely to breach intervention orders. Working with qualified police drone operators, the unit trialled the technology for the first time last Wednesday evening. Police made two arrests on the first night for breaching intervention orders in Morwell and Moe. The use of drones has made it easier for police to keep track of those likely to breach an intervention order, and is also a more cost-effective method than calling in air-wing. With eyes now in the sky and on the ground, the message to perpetrators is ‘you can run but you can’t hide’. Police have legislated power to enter homes under the Family Violence Act.

Support at heart of community expo By JACI HICKEN

Service: Latrobe Community Health’s Charli Hoy, Shupi Wadyehwata, Nina Elizarosa.

SERVICE providers from across the Valley came together for a community expo at the Moe Town Hall last week. Organised by the Latrobe Community Service Providers Network, the aim of the event was to reconnect the community with their range of services post-COVID. Gippsland Trades and Labour Council community project officer Kacie Duncan was really excited that the expo had finally happened, after originally intending to stage the event in 2021. “We have had a few people come in off the street, and a lot of networking between community groups,” Ms Duncan said. “The aim of today was a reconnection, making sure that people know what community services are in the area and what is available to them, as we have a lot of great services in the region.” Members of the public could access 21 community groups and service providers all in one place. Latrobe Community Health’s Nikki McNeilage found the expo helped her connect with different service providers. “Making networks with all the different service providers in one place and understanding the services they offer, helps me help my clients,” Ms McNeilage said. “The linkages made today means that, as a service provider, we know what other services are out there for our clients.” Latrobe Community Service Providers Network hopes to make the community expo an annual event going forward.

Gippsland cardiovascular study underway

A FIRST-of-its-kind cardiovascular study is underway in Gippsland to understand heart health in the region and how to support better health outcomes. More than 390 Gippslanders have already participated in the study, by accessing a 15-minute free heart health screening during May and June. The screenings are part of the Gippsland Healthy Heart Study, a collaborative project delivered by API, Si Su Health, Latrobe Health Services, Priceline Pharmacy and other key partners. According to Amy Sabatini, chief pharmacist

with Priceline, coronary heart disease remains the dominant cause of death among Australians with worse outcomes experienced in regional and rural areas. “The Gippsland Healthy Heart Study aims to sample the cardiovascular health of the Gippsland community,” Ms Sabatini said. “It also means that Gippslanders have access to a free heart health screening. “During their screening, participants have some key indicators checked including blood pressure, heart rate, body composition, diabetes risk and non-fasting cholesterol levels.

“Participants receive their results immediately and can take these to follow up with their GP as needed, and we recommend that everyone should get regular checks with their GP to maintain their health.” Latrobe Health Services chief executive officer Ian Whitehead said as Gippsland’s Private Health Insurer, Latrobe Health was happy to be supporting the study. “We’re passionate about good health in regional communities,” Mr Whitehead said. “Gippsland has some of the worst heart health outcomes in Australia, so we’ve been encouraging

our members and community to participate in the health screenings.”

The free health checks are open to all Gippslanders aged 18 years and have been conducted in Bairnsdale, Sale, Traralgon and Morwell. Early results have seen 50 people referred to their GP, with one person sent to hospital via ambulance.

STAR of the South – Australia’s first offshore wind project – has announced Charles Rattray has been appointed as chief executive officer, commencing in August 2022. The company said in a statement that Mr Rattray is a dynamic and respected senior leader in the energy and finance sectors, with experience across generation development, new technology and transmission. In his most recent role as managing director for Nexif Energy, Mr Rattray oversaw energy projects through all stages of the project lifecycle including the Lincoln Gap Wind Farm and Snapper Point Gas Peaking Plant. He succeeds Casper Frost Thorhauge, who served as Star of the South chief executive officer for 2 1/2 years until March 2022. Erin Coldham is currently acting chief executive officer and will resume her role as chief development officer in August 2022. Star of the South chairman Thomas Wibe

Poulsen confirmed Mr Rattray’s appointment last week. “We are pleased to have attracted Charles to lead the Star of the South team as the project continues to pave the way for an offshore wind industry in Victoria and Australia,” Mr Poulsen said. “Charles joins at an exciting time – as federal legislation comes into effect enabling offshore wind projects and following a 9GW offshore wind target announced for Victoria. “His experience working with new technologies and developing projects in the Australian market will strongly complement the specialist offshore wind expertise in the team. We look forward to welcoming Charles in August, when he will assume his new responsibilities, and I thank Erin Coldham for her leadership as acting CEO in the interim.” Star of the South is a planned 2.2GW project, with up to 200 turbines off the Gippsland coast and underground cables connecting to the Latrobe Valley, to power up to 1.2 million homes.

Scope for growth: Gippsland has more than one million hectares of land suitable for forest plantations.

photograph supplied

Report highlights region’s potential By PHILIP HOPKINS

GIPPSLAND has more than one million hectares of land suitable for forest plantations, with Wellington and East Gippsland shires having the most and best land, according to a new consultant’s report. The report, prepared by PFOlsen for the Gippsland Forestry Hub, also notes that including money from growing trees’ ability to sequester carbon dioxide, greatly improves the revenue from plantations. The plantation suitable land figures for the various local government areas are as follows: Wellington 384,752ha, East Gippsland 337,818ha, South Gippsland 202,565ha, Baw Baw Shire 119,333ha, Latrobe City 93,621ha and Bass Coast 57,996ha. Most of these areas’ suitability are classed as ‘high’ to ‘very high’, with the exception of Wellington, where about half the land is classed as ‘moderate’. “Although land costs are high, there is great potential to work with current landowners (including institutional agribusiness investors to integrate plantations on their land,” the report says. “The region is not homogenous. The forestry industry must engage with local groups to develop solutions that work

with local communities and match local landscapes.” The report warns that the Andrews government’s policy to end native logging – despite growing demand for the timber - is expected to continue to the reduction in local processing capacity. “Loss of scale threatens the ability of manufacturers to compete in an open economy,” it says. “Plantation supply is insufficient to meet current demand. The supply gap will be around 1.2 million cubic metres by 20320 and 2.1Mm3 by 2050.” The report is the latest stage in the Gippsland Forestry Hub’s 30-year strategy to create a sustainable forestry industry. The hub, founded in 2000, is funded by the federal government and includes representatives from local processors through to education providers. Hub chairman Simon Gatt said the hub’s committee met monthly to discuss its various projects underway. These include understanding the barriers and opportunities for industry innovation in Gippsland; training, education and skills development; assessing community support for forestry; developing a carbon guide for farmers; farm forestry case studies. Gippsland’s current forest area is

1.43 million hectares of native forest, of which 2560ha were harvested in 2000 (0.002 per cent of the total); and 90,000ha of plantations – 80 per cent softwood and 20 per cent hardwood (mostly short-term blue gum crops). However, 8000ha of commercial plantations were lost in Gippsland between 2009 and 2019. Most were former Managed Investment Scheme blue gum plantations but also farmerowned radiata pine plantations. The report emphasises the role that carbon sequestration can lay in bringing forward the money that can be earned from plantations, particularly in Gippsland’s rich soils, high rainfall and welcoming climate. Plantations now cost a lot to establish, with this phase followed by long periods of management focussing on tending and protection. Next is thinning (for long-rotation softwoods) and the final harvest. Thinning brings in some income, but the main return comes at final harvest – about 30 years. With carbon, the report, using an estimated price of $20 per CO2 tonne, shows the accumulated cashflow from the accumulating carbon and the growing values of the forest. Integrating forestry on farms shows the well-known benefits: a more diverse

income, maximising the benefits of shelter for animals and crops, and creating social licence for plantations by avoiding ‘boundary to boundary’ land use change where companies buy up whole farms. “Thus, Gippsland has the potential to become a significant source of carbon credits if the carbon price is sufficiently high and where rules allow,” PFOlsen says. It notes that the Clean Energy Regulator has various approved methodologies landholders can use to generate Australian Carbon Credit Units (ACCUs) from their trees. The report emphasises the key role that trusted advisers and the GF Hub can play in providing good information to landholders on forestry. The Hub should push regional institutions to embed forestry in their strategic plans and work with leading groups such as the Latrobe Valley Authority, Food & Fibre Gippsland and catchment management Authorities to promote trees for harvest. The report lists various weaknesses, opportunities and threats to a successful forestry industry. These include:  Few plantations have been established on farms in the past. Despite positive cashflows, farmers prefer not to have pine trees in their paddocks.

 There is no shared vison for forestry or collaborative work. Private Forestry Gippsland (2000-2010) failed due to lack of regional support.  Farmers are put off by complex regulations to plant and manage plantations, with little information available.  Price signals for plantation grown trees should be clearer as the state exits native forest logging.  A skilled workforce and innovative businesses can be used to improve tree management on farms.  Water authorities are keen to better use their land to manage commercial plantations.  The effects of climate change, with fires an ever-present threat to forests and plantations, while severe storms have blown plantations over. Such storms are predicted to increase.  Knowledge is being lost by industry because there is not a central repository. Private Forestry Gippsland and the Victorian Association of Forest Industries files are not available. The report, ‘Investing in Gippsland’s Sustainable Forestry Future’, was written by PFOlsen in partnership with Industry Edge and Spatial Vision.

HOROSCOPES Latrobe City’s by Joanne Madeline Moore June 13 - June 19, 2022

Aries This week’s stars are all about travel, conversation, education and exciting plans, as the Full Moon motivates you to be adventurous and dream fabulous dreams for the future. With Mars and Jupiter charging through your sign, it’s imperative to strike while the iron is hot! Be inspired by music pioneer (and fellow Aries) Diana Ross: “You can’t just sit there and wait for people to give you that golden dream. You’ve got to get out there and make it happen for yourself.” Taurus Venus is visiting your sign, which

highlights your natural charm and sociable nature. So it’s the perfect time to communicate with a wide range of people from a wide variety of places. Plus party like a pro at a special public event or entertain guests more privately at home. Whatever you do, make sure you enjoy yourself and have lots of fun. But be extra careful on Thursday, when someone could pass on fake news or dubious information that is not to be trusted.

GGemini Mercury (your power planet)

moves into your sign, where it joins the Sun. So it’s time to be the best, most creative, most gung-ho Gemini you can possibly be. As birthday great Paul McCartney (who turns 80 on Saturday) observes: “You’ve got to believe in yourself … it really is true.” And then the Full Moon revs up your relationship zone. So it’s a wonderful week to fall in love, do something special with your sweetheart, or finalise a fabulous joint venture.

Cancer Strive to get the balance right

between your professional persona and your more private side. Some quiet time for rest and relaxation is just as important as networking widely and burning the midnight oil. On Thursday, don’t let your Crab curiosity (and fertile imagination) cloud your better judgment. Step back and view a complex situation from a wider persppective,, and a more realistic anggle. If something sounds too good to be true, then it probably is!

Leo This week you’ll feel your Lion’s roar

returning! Saturn trines the Sun, so – if you play your cards right – you’ll charm the cynics, dazzle the doubters, and show others what you’re really capable of. You’re keen to talk about your grandiose goals, divine dreams and spectacular schemes for the future. But don’t get lost in a quagmire of possibilities. Make sure you walk your talk, and put those plans into productive action. Fortune favours proactive Cats.

Virgo g Is your professional life progressing

well?? Are you overdue to retrain or apply for a promotion? Is it time to take on a second job or even change vocation? Avoid resting on your lovely Virgo laurels. With Mercury and the Sun/Saturn trine energising your career zones, you need to initiate some positive changes. Plus look for practical ways to manage your stress levels, otherwise you’ll find that home and work responsibilities will be in constant conflict.

Libra Tuesday’s Full Moon activates your

travel zones, so a heavenly holiday is likely sometime soon. But it won’t happen if you’re a lackadaisical Libran! Take action ASAP via a spontaneous booking (if you’ve got the money) or a smart savings plan (if you’re currently cash-strapped). Plus take a good, long look at your secret hopes and wishes for the future. Do they need a radical shake-up? Make sure your dreams are creative, innovative, flexible and fun.

Scorpio p It’s time to take stock of your financiaal situation and find fresh ways to trim expenses and boost cash flow, as the Full Moon fires up your money zones. The more creative your thinking is, the better the outcome will be. But this week’s stars could also stir up your jealous side, as you become increasingly demanding towards a child, friend, lover or family member. With Venus visiting your relationship zone, consultation and compromise are the keys.

Sagittarius g Tuesday’s Full Moon highllights the tenuous balancing act between Sun in Gemini sociability and Moon in Sagittarius independence; between being together and being on your own. Attached Archers – talk through problems with your sweetheart. Singles – look beyond the exterior package that a potential partner presents. Killer curves or bulging biceps may seem enticing but – if the two of you can’t communicate well – then it’s just not going to last. Capricorn p Venus (planet of peace and pleassure) encourages you to build bridges with a teenager, initiate a fabulous new friendship, start a romance or take up a hobby you’ve always been interested in. Tuesday’s Full Moon highlights your humanitarian side. Being of service to others (with kindness and compassion) brings much joy and satisfaction. Plus take the time to savour and enjoy the simple things in your everyday life … like a kiss from a chhilld or a wallk in thhe parkk.

Aquarius q It’s a good week to entertain fam mily and friends at home, as Venus and Uranus stimulate your domestic zone, Convivial conversation is a bonus. But has an old relationship finally run out of steam? Or is a fair-weather friend criticising your behaviour and holding you back? The Full Moon urges you to review your partnerships and peer group, discard negative influences, and surround yourself with positive people who encourage your talents and support your dreams. Pisces The Full Moon stimulates your

career zone, so socialising with colleagues will help improve workplace relations. If you’re looking for employment, then put the word out amongst friends. Jupiter and Mars encourage you to be financially knowledgeable and proactive. But your carefully planned week could be turned upside down when the Sun/ Neptune square throws some confusing issues into the mix, especially involving a family matter.

eventful 2022

LATROBE City started the year in style with a baker’s dozen of big events bringing in significant visitation and tourism dollars throughout the municipality. A suite of major infrastructure upgrades was showcased across an eclectic mix of sporting and community events, highlighting the benefits of recent multi-million-dollar investments from all levels of government. The upgraded Gippsland Regional Indoor Sports Stadium (GRISS) was in the spotlight with a near capacity 2634 crowd on hand for the in-season NBL showdown between SEM Phoenix and Cairns Taipans. In February, a further 500 people packed the GRISS to watch the Melbourne Boomers play the Perth Lynx in an entertaining WNBL fixture, while 1500 attended the Melbourne Vixens versus Adelaide Thunderbirds Super Netball double feature. The sporting smorgasbord also included a special six-term AFL pre-season clash between Collingwood and Hawthorn in front of 4500 fans at the new and improved Morwell Recreation Reserve. January’s ATP Challenger, ITF women’s and ITF Junior tennis events at the recently upgraded Traralgon Tennis Centre brought in more than $3 million in estimated economic

impact, including substantial bed nights and local spending from athletes and their entourages. Some new events also emerged on the Latrobe City calendar, including the debut of the AGL Loy Yang Gippsland Cup soccer tournament, including the likes of Melbourne Victory and Eastern Lions SC, as well as a Yinnar Food Truck Festival. Annual Australia Day breakfasts and citizenship ceremonies were again a highlight across the region, as was the recurring Energy Australia Classic and Latrobe City Classic Pairs lawn bowls competitions, which drew a combined 1400 people to Yallourn and Moe. The events bonanza played as a precursor for upcoming major events, including Latrobe City’s pending participation as a Commonwealth Games host hub. “The quality and quantity of major events staged across Latrobe City in such a short span reflects our growth as a regional sporting and cultural hub of national significance,” Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said. “We continue to gain momentum in this space, activating our world class infrastructure with increasing regularity and attracting a host of new events to our flourishing regional city.”

Advocate calls for Urgent Care Clinic

THE Latrobe Health Advocate is calling for one of the 50 Medicare Urgent Care Clinics, announced by the new Australian Government in an election promise, to be located in the Latrobe Valley. Her comments came in her address to Latrobe Valley health representatives at an Access to Services forum in Traralgon last Monday, highlighting issues of local doctor shortages and digital health literacy. Held at the Traralgon office of the Victorian Department of Health, the Access to Services forum is a priority campaign for the Advocate with the themes of promoting the Latrobe region, building health and digital literacy and increasing the number of doctors. In her address, Ms Anderson welcomed the recent Labor Party election promise of 50 Medicare Urgent Care Clinics nationally, urging that the Latrobe Valley be a priority location for one of the clinics. Ms Anderson also noted there was currently a state government EOI process out for the five GP-led Priority Primary Care Centres across Victoria proposed to open up to 16 hours a day, seven days a week, with selection influenced by need and interest from clinics. She said access to services was the top aspiration identified by Latrobe Valley communities in her recent Quarterly Report, with people saying they delayed seeing a doctor and other health services if their previous experience was unpleasant or if there were language or cultural barriers. According to Ms Anderson, if systems and processes are difficult or overly complex, if they feel rushed or judged, they are likely to put off going back. When asked who else they might see if they are unable to see a doctor, 60 per cent of respondents said they would attend an emergency department, up from 32 per cent in 2020. Another 40 per cent of respondents said they would phone Nurse on Call, up from 5 per cent in 2020. Ms Anderson said work was underway and ongoing to improve training pathways for doctors, build digital literacy, promote the liveability of Latrobe, and enable local system design and innovation to reduce the burden on the emergency department ‘’Local patients are often required to travel to other regional locations or Melbourne to access the care, medical equipment, or facilities they needed. When this occurred, the transition and communication between metropolitan and regional health services may have been lacking and disrupted the continuity of care.” As a way of attracting more health professionals, people want the region’s lifestyle, education offerings and more affordable housing in Latrobe, promoted widely. They want systems that encourage doctors to stay

It was suggested the story of the Latrobe Valley should be promoted as well as more work done to embrace different cultures and diversity within the community. Ms Anderson highlighted the following key themes of importance to the Latrobe Valley health sector: local system design and innovation; reducing the burden on the emergency department and creating a multidisciplinary business model for the future. Ms Anderson said her office had convened regular stakeholder forums where action plan agencies came together to provide updates on their work underway, discuss strategies to advance systems change and importantly, identify challenges and ways to address them. “An Urgent Care Clinic in Latrobe is a necessary part of the solution and will be welcomed by communities and health practitioners. Local clinics will have the opportunity to put themselves forward to partner with the government to deliver an Urgent Care Clinic in Latrobe,” she said.

St Mary’s students take a close look at the home of sport YEAR 3 and 4 students from St Mary’s Primary School in Newborough journeyed to the home of sport; The Melbourne Cricket Ground and adjoining Australian Sports Museum on May 26. The program was supported by the state government’s Positive Start Schools initiative. The students split into teams named after Hall of Fame Athletes to rotate between many activities on the day. They listened to Olympic sailor Carrie Smith, who talked about the importance of resilience, determination and having a supportive team to achieve your goals. Students then had the opportunity to put their journalism hats on in a mock press conference. “I asked her if people felt surprised or disappointed when she retired so young,” asked Scarlette. “I thought she had a good attitude,” Nafieth said. “I like that she never gave up,” Vince said. The “Game On!” section

Thumbs up: The Year 3 and 4 students from St Mary’s Primary School at the MCG. was popular with many hands-on exhibits that utilised touch technology and the co-ordinational skills of the students. The museum hosted a variety of sporting artefacts, informational touch screens, quizzes, a hologram, the Hall of Fame. “I loved the “horse race” activity where my drawing were scanned into a “race”

on the big screen,” Charlotte said. “It was so cool to see Cathy Freeman’s speed suit, she wanted to make a statement to show the world that she was the best,” Penny said. “The hologram of Shane Warne looked so real,” Stella said. To finish the day, our MCC experts guided the group on a tour of the MCG.

Wheely good: The National Sports Museum had a host of activities which kept the students entertained.

Students were excited to step onto the ground and go “behind the scenes” including the team rooms, viewing platforms, media centre, the MCC members section, and to stand at the very top of the stands. “My Dad wouldn’t stop asking our guide questions and sharing facts,” Louis said. The spectacle of the ‘G was impressive, and the excitement of the train journey thrilled many of the students. Many of the students enjoyed the humble thrill of their first V/Line train ride. The students went home as exhausted as athletes after a huge day exploring topics of leadership, communication, collaboration, problemsolving and persistence.

pins and needles or numbness in the thumb index, miiddle andd hallf off the riing finger tendds to be diagnosttic of compression of the median nerve in the base of the palm or carpal tunnel syndrome. The term carpal tunnel syndrome comes from the tight space between the small bones of the wrist and the sinew or ligament bridge crossing above the median nerve and tendons that control finger movement. The nerve is quite large and thick, almost the thickness of a little finger and is prone to being compressed in this tight anatomical area causing the symptoms of pain and ‘pins and needles’. Think of it as the nerve crying out for more space.

without all the fuss. In most situations relief from the nocturnal pain is immediate, or within a day or two. The pins and needles and altered sensation in the fingertips taking longer to resolve. With long standing carpal tunnel syndrome it can take many months but if the symptom duration is short these tend to improve over a few weeks. Unfortunately the procedure is not a general practice procedure and a referral will be necessary for an opinion and discussion of individual circumstances and how to proceed.

Sometimes, if the clinical symptoms of carpal tunnel are not that clear, nerve conduction studies or an MRI of the hand and wrist may have to be done but most of the time the clinical situation is convincing. The fix for this is relatively simple. Either rest the hand in a splint for months, sometimes a steroid injection which is a bit painful and not that successful or a simple operation under local anaesthetic. Carpal tunnel decompression can be done in a hospital under a general anaesthetic, but with skill and expertise it can be easily done in a half an hour without discomfort and is equally successful and

Painful hands and carpal tunnel syndrome is very common especially in older people who have lead a generous and productive working life. It is sometimes difficult to sort out the cause of hand pain as it can result from ‘wear and tear’ such as osteoarthritis in the small joints of the hand, the moving structures such as inflammation of the tendon sheaths or from compression of the median nerve at the wrist. To complicate things, problems with the neck and also the elbow can also refer pain to the hand.

BACKSTAGE PASS: the Grit and the Glamour is the first book by Newborough author Joe Matera about his life interviewing some of the biggest names in rock music. Australian guitarist and well-known rock ournalist Mr Matera has interviewed the journalist likes of Kiss, Queen, John Mayer and the 5th Beatle, Sir George Martin. Mr Matera kept diaries of his music and continued with this when he started writing music journalism. “I kept diaries over the years and then when the pandemic hit, and I couldn’t tour or do shows, I thought I needed to do something, so I pulled out the diaries and had a read of them,” Mr Matera said. “As I was looking at my diaries, more memories came to me and I started writing them down.” Pulling together three chapters, Mr Matera wondered if there was any interest in a book. “I sent it to a few publishers around the country (Australia) and they all went - nah, it’s not the sort of book we want,” he said. “A journalist friend of mine in the UK said to me, ‘I know there’s a publisher who will love this,’ so I sent it off to the publisher in Europe and they said ‘if you finish the book, we’ll publish it’.” After 18 months of writing, Mr Matera’s book was published in Europe last November. “It’s done so well, it got rave reviews overseas and went to number one in Sweden recently for two weeks,” which was no surprise to Mr Matera, as he is a member of the Swedish rock band Rough Rockers.

From there, the book was picked up by an Australian distributor. Being a musician himself has helped Mr Matera create relationships with other musicians. One of the stories that stuck out to Mr Matera was meeting Hank Marvin from The Shadows. “I met and interviewed him in 2006 and the first thing I said was ‘Hank, you are one of my guitar heroes,” Mr Matera said, noting that when he was 15, he bought the 20 Golden Greats of The Shadows and learned it note by note. “And he was like, ‘I’m happy about that and I’ll tell you a story.’ “One of my friends (Hank Marvin’s friend) that’s a guitar teacher also used that album to teach all his students guitar. Afterwards, he

wanted to hear about my music, asking me about my music and my guitar playing.” Mr Matera said this is why the book is called BACKSTAGE PASS: the Grit and the Glamour, as it is not about sex, drugs and rock and roll, but the music and the hard work that goes into it. “And being a musician, once they know that I was not there for a headline, they would open up to me,” he said. “I’ve always been about the music and artist will always call out for me.” An example of this was John Mayer requesting Mr Matera to interview him as part of his first three tours of Australia. “I interviewed him the first time he came to Australia and then for the following two tours,

he asked me to interview him because he knew I would talk about music and guitars,” he said. “I didn’t care about what happened in their life, it’s personal, which is why my book is called the grit. “The grit is the hard work because lifestyl of people think it’s all glamorous lifestyle Rolls-Royces and parties and it’s not, with those who do that, don’t last long. “It’s about the hard work because in the book I explain, usually 23 hours of the th day is spent getting ready to play, on the train on hour between gigs, sleeping, eating and one on stage; which is what you live for. “The glamour is what people see, th the public persona, with people thinking musicians are making millions and don’t understand that there are all these overheads and are not making millions.” Mate You can find Joe Matera’s BACKSTAGE PASS: the Grit and the Glamour in all good bookshops. launc of There will be a launch BACKSTAGE PASS PASS: the Grit and the Glamour Gla in Sale at the Wellington Sh Shire Por of Library, Port Sale on August 4, Aug 2022, bookings through Eventbr Eventbrite.

Forestry taster program is on offer

By MICHELLE SLATER

GIPPSLANDERS can learn more about how to get work in the timber industry with a new free, three-day course being offered to local jobseekers, students or transitional workers. The forestry taster program is being run by the Gippsland Forestry Hub with funding from Responsible Wood to encourage more people into the industry. Gippsland Forestry Hub general manager Lesia Clark said the pilot course was the first of its kind in

Victoria, looking at jobs with focus on plantations. Ms Clark said the industry was suffering from high job vacancy rates, with a range of local employment opportunities across the sector. She said these jobs varied from nursery work and tree planting, through to harvest haulage, plantation mapping or drone operators. “We are encouraging more people to get employed in the forest industry, it’s a good industry to work in, there are jobs ready to go in Gippsland,” Ms Clark said. “It’s a highly regulated industry and this course

will let people learn about the skills to get trainedup. There are plenty of jobs available, we have large plantation resources already.” Course attendees will be able to meet with a range of industry mentors who will discuss career opportunities and offer work experience placements. They will then be able to complete TAFE Gippsland units in OH&S for the forest industry and environmental care in forestry. The course will wind-up on the third day with site visits to a plantation nursery, sawmill and softwood and hardwood coupes.

“We have such a variety of work, it’s not just going in and cutting down trees, people don’t get it there is so much involved,” Ms Clark said. “If you like working outdoors there are plenty of things to do, or if you like working in an office there are plenty of office jobs. In Gippsland, this is right on our back door step.” The Gippsland Forestry Taster will be run on June 20-22 and June 27-29 from 9am to 3pm at the Morwell Innovation Centre. For more information, email admin@gippsland forestryhub.com.au or phone 0429 300 716.

A TWO-week Outer Space inquiry is currently taking place across all the classes at Morwell Central Primary School. It began with a ‘Blast Off’ extravaganza in the school’s Performing Arts Centre and was followed by a day of ‘Tuning in’ activities. These activities included rocket building, astronaut training, and activities to do with the constellations, moon phases and the Solar System. During the Outer Space inquiry, the students are participating in various space-related activities and researching many different aspects of life beyond Earth, such as the planets, the sun and other stars, the moon’s surface and orbit, the galaxy and space inventions. To support their understanding, both the 3/4 and 5/6 Hubs enjoyed an excursion to Scienceworks to

Special night for Traralgon West brigade

TRARALGON West Fire Brigade held its annual awards dinner recently with a number of members being awarded service awards, life member awards and national medals. The brigade also conducted a special presentation to the Little family in honour of the late ex-captain, Don Little. District 27 A/ACFO Gareth McDermott presented a 70-year honorary life member medal on behalf of CFA to Don’s wife Shirley, daughter Susan and brother in law Ken. Shortly after, the Little/Markham family graciously presented the brigade with a collection of Don’s medals and pins of which the brigade will now be the proud caretakers of. In recent years, Don had spoken of his embarrassment for receiving service awards. This reflects strongly, a humble man who perhaps did not understand the enormity of his legacy to CFA and the Traralgon West Fire Brigade. To acknowledge the concerted and sustained efforts of Don during the years he was captain and beyond, after his passing it was only fitting that the brigade honour Don in some way. So in May 2021, the brigade submitted an application to the ACFO to formally request that the tanker be named the ‘Captain Don Little’. The ‘Captain Don Little’ was formally presented to Don’s family in a very moving, special presentation. Shortly following were a few words from excaptain Ian Dunbar who was recruited by Don during a recruitment campaign back some 46 years ago, one that essentially saved the Traralgon West Brigade from disbandment. He spoke very fondly of a friend and mentor and thanked Shirley, Suzanne and Ken for supporting Don through his years at the brigade. The brigade are proud and honoured to have been presented with Don’s service medals, pins and national medals and will have them mounted to be displayed in the station. Such a kind act from the Little/Markham family will ensure Don’s legacy and achievements are preserved and will serve as a daily reminder to members that their dedication and involvement in the present day may seem small and insignificant, but the effects may be felt forevermore. The brigade would like to thank special guests Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan, Nationals Member for Eastern Victoria Melina Bath, Member for Morwell Russell Northe, CFA Deputy Chief

Scammers alert issued MEMBER for Gippsland South Danny O’Brien is urging residents to be vigilant after repeated reports of nuisance phone calls to local households from telemarketers claiming to be calling from the state government. Mr O’Brien said that he was aware of many locals receiving cold calls from persons claiming to be a representative of the state government spruiking the Victorian Energy Upgrades program. “The Victorian Energy Upgrades Program is a legitimate rebate program that is available to Victorians and I encourage those wanting to take advantage of this program to speak to local companies about the products they have available,” Mr O’Brien said. “Unfortunately, what appears to be happening is that dishonest persons are using this program as a front to obtain personal information from unsuspecting victims. “It’s important to note that genuine providers of this program have signed on to a code of conduct and will not inundate you with repeated calls. Indeed, the code of conduct states that they must not call the same household twice within 30 days unless specifically asked to do so by the householder. “Genuine telemarketers representing the Victorian Energy Upgrades Program would also only call between 9am and 8pm weekdays and 9am–5pm Saturdays with no calls allowed on Sundays. “They would also not claim to be calling from the state government or request any personal information.” Mr O’Brien encouraged anyone receiving such calls to report them to Scamwatch at www.scamwatch.gov.au/report-a-scam. Further information about the Victorian Energy Upgrades Program and a list of accredited providers is available at www. energy.vic.gov.au/energy-efficiency/ victorian-energy-upgrades. If you believe a company who is an accredited provider of the Victorian Energy Upgrades Program is breaching the code of conduct, you can make a complaint by calling 03 9032 1310 or emailing veu@esc.vic.gov.au.

Gippsland Regional Aquatic Centre wins major accolade

GP1643790

Page 26 — The Latrobe Valley Express, Wednesday, 15 June, 2022

THE Gippsland Regional Aquatic Centre (GRAC) has been recognised as a leading community facility in Victoria at the 2022 Local Government Professionals awards. Latrobe City Council took out the Community Assets and Infrastructure (more than $2.5 million) Initiative category for its delivery of the $57 million aquatic centre. “The Gippsland Regional Aquatic Centre has been a point of great pride for the Latrobe City community since opening last March,” Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said “It has made a significant contribution to our regional city’s overall health, wellbeing and visitor economy. “Being recognised by LGPro and our local government peers as a leading regional facility is a wonderful accolade and a tribute to the council staff, local community members, state government partners, contractors and many others who combined to deliver this exceptional project.” The role of local community collaboration in the design and scope of GRAC contributed to the award. A project reference group, including an eclectic

cast of local stakeholders, was engaged to ensure GRAC aligned with community expectations and needs. The result was a modern, inclusive facility that reflects the growing community’s needs into the future, underpinned by improved health and wellbeing outcomes. Accessibility features were recently bolstered by the creation of an ‘Access Key’ - a customised guide to the centre’s programs and facilities tailored to people living with a disability. Innovative design features, such as the implementation of geothermal energy throughout the facility, were also key to GRAC’s recognition. Harnessing geothermal energy has led to annual savings of about $639,000 and a reduction in carbon emissions by some 840 tonnes per year. In just over a year of operation, the aquatic centre has welcomed more than 140,000 visitors through the doors despite the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic. The facility was funded through the Latrobe Valley Authority’s $85 million Sports and Community Initiative, Sport and Recreation Victoria and Latrobe City Council.

Safety Week for school LATROBE Special Developmental School staged a safety week recently, which saw emergency services visit the school to talk about people in the community who help us and keep us safe. Classes had activities and games about staying safe. The students enjoyed meeting police, firefighters, and had RACV come to talk about home and road safety, and the ambulance visit also. They had a turn of using the fire hose and got to listen to the sirens and ask the officers questions about their jobs. Focus: Logan using the fire hose. All smiles: Victoria with members of the local police.

Thin blue line: Tilly with members of the local police.

Donation: Sammi, Rylee, Maddie and Matilda.

Fun day: Avya with the fire truck.

Up close: Logan with a fire truck.

wear their pyjamas for the day and in return donate a can of food towards the food drive. The Junior School Council’s target was to collect 1200 cans. With the amazing generosity from the school community we were able to collect a whopping 2347 cans. Classrooms tied in maths to the fundraiser with each class measuring the length of all of their cans. The winning Year 5/6 class collected 267 cans and were able to make a can line that measured 27 metres. The Latrobe Valley Express, Wednesday, 15 June, 2022 — Page 31


Rotary’s support for the community WE are so lucky to have members of the Rotary Club supporting our community. Frequently at events Rotarians are active raising money for important community needs. I was pleasantly surprised to see Rotary members in conjunction with Traralgon Centre Plaza Management maintaining the area around the plaza. What a fantastic initiative. This action is a worthwhile example for other Latrobe Valley businesses to follow suit and engage other community groups to clean up their areas. Thank you to all volunteers for the support they provide to our communities. Denise Stranger, Traralgon

purely a punitive measure aimed at punishing those Victorians who chose not to get vaccinated with one or two injections and, worse still, choose not to get the booster shot. This is discriminatory and beyond cruel. In this connection, it is worth noting that our Premier, still smarting at having his dangerous Belt and Road contract torn up by the Morrison government on the grounds of “national security”, recently and self-servingly signed a lucrative contract with Chinese outfit Chunxing Corporation via its ULAB (Used Lead Acid Battery) operations on the outskirts of Morwell, starting in December 2022.

Men’s Health Week

THIS year will see Men’s Health Week acknowledged June 13-19, 2022. Despite significant medical advances over the years, the life expectancy of men continues to remain significantly lower than our female counterparts. Men’s Health Week is all about encouraging men to speak up and take action to ensure we are actively staying healthy by recognising and removing the barriers that typically prevent us from doing so. While not exclusive to men, research has identified the main five barriers that prevent men from taking action to ensure their health are: Denial – convincing themselves that there is no issue. Delay – convincing themselves that it’s not important and can wait indefinitely. Perception – worrying that they might be seen as ‘weak’. Embarrassment – uncomfortable discussing their concerns. Trust – not knowing who they can rely on for accurate medical information. This year Men’s Health Week will focus not just on physical health, but also mental health and emotional wellbeing. For many men, mental health is still seen as a taboo subject, as historically the willingness to open-up and be honest about struggling with mental health has been shrouded in a stigma of perceived weakness. As a result, men take their own lives at four times the rate of women. Men’s Health Week aims to help remove this stigma and encourage everyone, regardless of gender, to speak up and seek-out treatment. A dedicated mental health support phone service is available through Mensline which can be reached on 1300 78 99 78 at no cost. For more information on Men’s Health Week or for trustworthy advice on men’s health issues please visit www.healthymale.org.au. Danny O’Brien MP, Member for Gippsland South

Australia’s great green gamble

AUSTRALIANS took a great green gamble in the recent election. Green millionaires and other left-wing activists supported slick campaigns promoting a gaggle of well-off women who won 6 seats in the leafy-green suburbs. Being rich blue-bloods with dark green policies they adopted Teal-coloured uniforms. Dark Greens also grabbed some inner city electorates. The Liberal-National “conservatives”

got their lowest vote for over 70 years, losing control of parliament. The left-wing ALP also got their lowest vote for over 70 years but won a slim majority in the lower house of federal Parliament. This Teal-Green-ALP lurch to the left promises a disorderly rush into green energy – their aim is to cover this huge continent with solar panels, wind turbines, transmission lines, access roads, giant batteries and National Parks. Off shore wind turbines will start sprouting but no new coal developments will be approved. The new PM wants to make Australia a “renewable energy super power” and “Get-Up” wants to “protect indigenous communities from fracking”. And just when Matt Canavan and Barnaby Joyce of the National Party started to talk energy sense, their mob also caught the virulent green virus. They dumped Barnaby and elected a new leader, David Littleproud, who wants to support “the sensible centre”. He is likely to ensure farmers get their noses in the climate subsidy trough via clever accounting for soil carbon. The new ALP government plans to triple green energy to supply 80 per cent of Australia’s electricity market by 2030 (but only on sunny/ windy days). They invite electricity chaos by promoting quick closure of reliable coal-fired power stations, while also promoting more electric cars – more demand, less supply. Adding to the looming energy turmoil, another green millionaire has taken a big share-holding in AGL, Australia’s biggest electricity producer, with the aim of closing coal generators to support “Paris-aligned plans”. And the Green G7 and their big business friends want the western world to “cease funding fossil fuels and shift to green energy”. This is great news for Big Miners who produce green-age metals like copper, nickel, cobalt, lithium, aluminium, rare earths and uranium. Green energy is a wild bull in the electricity china shop. Australia’s new green government has a $20 billion plan to “rewire the nation” to connect the spreading rash of wind and solar toys.

Eastern Australia recently had a couple of days of high wind, which caused many outages as trees and powerlines were blown down. Imagine the outages after a cyclone cuts a swathe thru this continent-wide spider-web of fragile power lines connecting green energy generators, batteries and markets. We also have the hydrogen evangelists. The fact that many voters, politicians and some businessmen see hydrogen as a net fuel source merely illustrates the tragic failure of science/ engineering education in Australia. Like pumped hydro, hydrogen will never recover the energy needed to generate it. Our clever politicians also have plans to “decarbonise aviation”, presumably with hydrogen fuel. They should call it “Hindenburg Aviation”. But coal producers see a good business case for Carbon Capture and Burial – it will consume more coal to produce the same usable electricity, with electricity consumers picking up the tab. German Greens can fool around trying to run a modern society with windmills and sunbeams, but unlike Australia, Germany has extension cords to nuclear-powered France and a (nowfragile) pipeline to Russian gas. We will have more energy plans, more energy czars and greater energy chaos. Australians are destined to discover that they lost heavily in the great green gamble. Viv Forbes Washpool, Queensland

Mandates discriminatory and beyond cruel

REFER to Anthony Wasiukiewicz’s letter titled “Restrictions impacting on foodbank” (The Express, Opinion, 8/6) and share Mr Wasiukiewicz’s concerns 100 per cent. Indeed, the intrinsically anti-democratic vaccine mandates are not fit for purpose as, very clearly, they do not prevent catching COVID in the first place and, moreover, do not prevent transmitting the virus to others. In other words, the mandates have become

God Save Our Gracious Queen

OUR Queen’s Birthday weekend was an occasion to celebrate the remarkable reign of our Monarch Queen Elizabeth II. We have been lucky Australians to have lived in the 70 years of The Queen’s reign as Head of the Commonwealth and Sovereign of the fifteen Commonwealth Realms. There have been celebrations over much of the world, marking this Platinum Jubilee of our Monarch. As a young woman Elizabeth pledged to serve us all of her days, and her devotion to duty, her presence at absolutely innumerable ceremonies, has proven her pledge, winning her the acclaim of millions worldwide, especially in America. For 70 years, our Monarch, Queen Elizabeth has steadfastly done her best for all the Countries of our Commonwealth. A unifying focus in these very troubled times. For 70 years, we have been spared the divisions, the colossal expense and the bitter

WHO would have thought that all of the billionaire sponsored Teal ‘Independents’ would now be sitting on the Federal cross benches in total silence since Labor has formed a majority government? The cross benches and their electorates no longer have a voice in federal parliament. At a time when Australia is crying out for more doctors and nurses we have two doctors flying to Canberra at taxpayers’ expense, sitting on the cross benches for approximately 45 days of the year for the next three years, having no input into parliamentary decisions and collecting $200,000 each year. They were all generating the fear of climate change just like the millennium fear back in 1999 when people committed suicide because they thought that the world was going to end. Now we have the AMA coming out and saying that all doctors should be promoting climate change if they want a job in the health system. Really? Whatever happened to the ‘Hippocratic’ Oath? Did the voters not learn from Oakeshott, Windsor and Wilkie in a previous Labor government? Did they not learn from the cross bench MP’s here in Victoria that gave Daniel Andrews the power to lockdown Victoria and destroy the economy along with people’s lives? The shoe is on the other foot now so let’s see how Labor handles debt and the economy and let’s see how many pre-election promises they deliver over the next three years. Brian Mawhinney, Traralgon

HYPOTHERMIA may kill many elderly immuno-compromised Australians this winter. With rapid increases in the cost of all forms of power predicted and huge question marks over reliability of supply. Michael J Gamble, Belmont

Just William a century on

ONE hundred years ago, in May 1922, the first Just William book, by Richmal Crompton was published. Her 385 stories were collected into thirty-eight books, written over five decades, translated into seventeen languages and at one stage were outsold only by the Bible. I read the hilarious books as a child and still have a wallow every few years. William is an eleven-year-old anti-hero who, like Bart Simpson, remains the same age through the decades. His creator is the JK Rowling of her day. The books are a satirical take on life in a ‘quiet’ English village, with its ostensibly ‘normal’ inhabitants and ‘ordinary’ activities. Hypocrisy and self-importance in the adult world are exposed through William’s exploits. Being helpful was William’s aim in life. Not all the recipients of his help were grateful. He would have given much thought to helping organise a centenary celebration in his village, should that ever be necessary. He might have had the brilliant idea of a party for all the children of England but after discussion with his mates, the Outlaws, that would have probably been reduced to all the children in the village. Except Hubert Lane, his sworn enemy and Arabella Simpkin, a thorn in his side. He would have liked to exclude the domineering Violet Elizabeth but he knew that would not work. Other centenary specials William might have thought of, could have been a trip to the moon (how many people could fit in the rocket? said the Outlaws), round the world in a pirate ship (we thought you didn’t like the sea, said the Outlaws – no, only the sea-side, said William) or offering the Society for Giving Decent GrownUps a Good Time, a Good Time. He tried this once, by including Aunt Florence in his Red Injun game, but it back-fired, with Aunt Florence having morning tea with Hubert Lane’s mother! The books were not written for children; the language is sophisticated and obviously for grown-ups. When it became clear that children had discovered the books, Richmal Crompton didn’t change her style or write down to her younger readers. I remember, as a twelve-year-old, asking my mother what ‘ejaculated’ meant. ‘Exclaimed dear, exclaimed!’ I wondered why she seemed embarrassed. A telegram from the Queen? Who knows?

Online comments

By 2122, William may still be very much alive and well and planning even more centenary celebrations. Elisabeth Middleton, Trafalgar

Morwell has been shanghaied

AS we celebrated the 30th anniversary of Mabo Day on June 3, 2022, we are reminded of the Aboriginal Victorians Act 2018 (Treaty Act) which passed both houses of the Victorian Parliament in June 2018 and commenced on August 1, 2018. We also note that on October 8, 2018, Premier Dan Andrews of the state government of Victoria, Commonwealth of Australia, and the chairman, the National Development and Reform Commission of the People’s Republic of China signed a Memorandum of Understanding which allowed the entry of the Chinese Chunxing Corporation to establish a Used Lead Acid Battery (ULAB) plant in Morwell. Has this been ratified by the Gunaikurnai peoples of Morwell? Your front page article, The Express, (1/6/22) titled “New owner takes over ULAB plant”, states that Pure Environmental has acquired shares in Chunxing Corporation. No matter whether the ULAB plant is called Chunxing Corporation or Pure Environmental, the community has made it clear that we do not want a lead smelter in Morwell processing 50,000 tonnes of used car batteries per year. We note with interest that the Chunxing environmental officer has resigned from his position. Perhaps he can foresee a pure environmental disaster? Dr Christine Sindt, Gippsland Resource Group Inc president

Honouring our mental health heroes

THE majority of Australians are touched by the impact of mental health in some way and there is no doubt that the past few years have been some of the most challenging in recent history. Many live with the daily burden of anxiety or depression, or care for a loved one. Too many in our communities have been lost. There are thousands of people working tirelessly to make a difference to the mental health of Australians and they should be recognised for their leadership. This is the goal of the Australian Mental Health Prize, established by UNSW Sydney to acknowledge those who are doing innovative work in areas such as advocacy, research or community service. Nominations are now open and we strongly encourage people across the country to help us to honour the mental health heroes in your community. This year, the prize has expanded the nomination categories for the first time. More information and nomination forms can be obtained from www.australianmentalhealth prize.org.au. Entries close on August 1. For those who are living with the burden of mental illness every day, thank you for your support. Lucy Brogden AM and Professsor Allan Fels OA, Australian Mental Health Prize Advisory Group co-chairs

END OF AN ERA FOR MORWELL MARKET Sally Jorgensen McIntyre: Been more than 30 years since we went religiously every Sunday with George and Shirley Taylor. Katie Galbraith: I think people are remembering how good it was a very long time ago.Yeah markets aren’t that great. Be happy development is happening down here. Mick Feil: About time. Housing estate will be much better for Morwell. This is happening 10 years too late IMO. Kriss-Tine Moy: I imagine there will be a lot of bargains from the stalls on Sunday. Michael Hixy Hicks: So shutting down the golf driving range to develop an estate wasnt enough. I agree the sunday market has gone downhill bigtime compared to 10 years ago, but seems there’s enough development at present. Bring back the drive-in. Chezza Rawling: Sorry to hear. It will be a sad day. Baz Bobber: More housing.Yes that’s what the Valley needs.You know. To go with all the jobs we have here in the Valley. Industry shutting.Yeah. Great idea. Kellie Elizabeth Mullins: Isn’t there another space? The Morwell Sunday market has been a treasure for many many years ... we shouldn’t just close up and be done ... surely there’s another space that can be used for our beloved Morwell Sunday Market. Melissa Turner: This is sad news. Susan Van Sambeek: Might have to go one last time. I will miss finding my little treasures. Kerrie Hunt: That will be the end of an era.

Nana Nevenka Petkovic: Thank you Michelle. John Auger: This is terrible. Laura Ida: Memories. Nadeene Aubrey-Haines: Great place to go if you wanna buy a broken lawn mower or 14 shovels. LOY YANG A UNIT OUTAGE FACES MORE DELAYS Luke Ripper: 8 billion was a pretty good offer. David Norton: Unreliable fossils. Marcus Hiam: Mind you, if we’d had a new power station built to take the pressure off the ageing gear, we wouldn’t be having this conversation. Marianne Robinson: A number of new power stations have been proposed and are going through the processes to be built. These include Star of the South and Delburn wind farms. Warwick Landy: A wind farm should not ever be referred to as a power station. It will never have the capacity to supply constant baseload energy supply 24/7. Only good to supplement not replace. Do you know exactly how many wind turbines it takes to replace just one of Loy Yang’s generators. Stuart Bell: Surprise, surprise.

community corner Moe VIEW Club calling on the community to give generously

MOE VIEW Club is urging the local community to give generously to The Smith Family’s Winter Appeal this year, to support thousands of children and young people with their education as they deal with the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. This year, The Smith Family aims to raise $5.4 million by June 30 to provide learning and mentoring support programs to children in need. VIEW is the largest community sponsor of students on The Smith Family’s Learning for Life program, which is why its members are calling on Australians to get behind the appeal. The Smith Family’s chief executive officer Doug Taylor said support from the public is vital, and will help the charity extend its reach. This is especially important with a national survey conducted by the charity revealing families are still worried about their children’s education, even as Australia emerges from the pandemic. “Helping students in need who are struggling at school is a focus of The Smith Family’s work. And what we’re seeing in this third year of the pandemic is the need is greater than ever,” Mr Taylor said. “Our survey found that more than half of parents and carers believe COVID is continuing to make schooling difficult for their children, with disrupted routines, illness, and mental health all key concerns. “It’s alarming that 70 per cent of respondents said they are worried about their children’s schoolwork in the future. “We want to extend our tailored learning support programs to help more children over the coming year address these issues, and to ensure they can thrive in their education once again.” Funds raised will support 12,857 children across Australia to access a range of proven numeracy, reading, and mentoring programs, including after school Learning Clubs. MOE VIEW Club president Maureen said support from the community was vital in this difficult time. “COVID has been so disruptive for all of us, but children experiencing disadvantage have felt this impact more than most. By donating to The Smith Family this appeal, we can ensure those children who are most in need can get the best out of their education,” she said. VIEW (Voice, Interests and Education of Women) is a national women’s organisation and support network, bringing together women to enjoy social activities, develop skills, and make connections – all while supporting Australian children experiencing disadvantage. For those who are interested to find out more about VIEW or who would like to join visit view.org.au. You can also call Sue on 0417 515 745 or Dawn on 0403 511 730.

Not-for-profit groups across Australia can apply for grants of up to $10,000 to support projects with the primary purpose of improving mental health and wellbeing in local communities. Last year’s program saw half of all grants made to organisations in regional and remote locations. Australia Post head of Community Nicky Tracey said past recipients included projects such as friendship and buddy programs, peer support groups for young people, mental wellbeing workshops and community morning teas. “We are delighted to once again offer these grants to help support the mental health of Australians all around the country. We’ve seen how these grants make a real difference in local communities, building connection and encouraging open and positive conversations around mental health,” Ms Tracey said. “As an organisation that delivers to customers everywhere - in cities, rural areas and the most remote corners of the country - we want to support local communities deliver a diverse range of projects, and we’re delighted to once again do that through the 2022 Community Grants program.” The program illustrates Australia Post’s longstanding commitment to mental health, which includes supporting mental health and wellbeing in the transport and logistics industries as a founding member of Healthy Heads in Trucks & Sheds, and a partnership with Beyond Blue that to date has delivered mental health resources to more than six million letterboxes across Australia.

Fresh era of funding services for Gippsland PHN GIPPSLAND Primary Health Network is moving into a new era of funding services for the community with the launch of a new outcomes-focused commissioning approach from July 1. The aim is to ensure all commissioned services effectively meet the current needs of the Gippsland community. Importantly, the new approach has been informed by extensive consultation with stakeholders including people with lived experience. The first services to be launched under the new approach are in the areas of Primary Mental Health Care and Psychosocial Support. Gippsland PHN chief executive officer Amanda Proposch said the organisation had not run an open tender process for core Primary Mental Health Care and Psychosocial Support for several years. Until now, commissioned services had been based solely on an annual population health needs assessment. “It has been a significant amount of time since we last ran a competitive process for our commissioned services,” Ms Proposch said. “Instead of re-contracting services each year as we have done in the past, we are ensuring that all services meet current community needs and align to our 2022-2025 Health Needs Assessment.” While the Australian Department of Health encouraged all PHNs to move to outcomesbased procurement, Gippsland PHN’s aim is for the process to be informed by best practice and through consultation with people who have lived experience. “We consulted widely including holding open forums with people who have lived and are living with a mental health illness, advocates and community,” Ms Proposch said. “The overwhelming response was a request for services to meet consumer needs.” Importantly, the change was informed by the Royal Commission into Victoria’s Mental Health System. “We recognise the seriousness of mental health in our community and we are committed to ensuring people can access the most appropriate services for their mental health needs at any given time— including the ability to step up and step down to different levels of care as they move along their recovery journey,” Ms Proposch said. “Consumers also told us they only want to tell their story once and want people to understand their needs.” Gippsland PHN contacted all affected commissioned service providers in 2021 to explain the new outcomes-focused commissioning approach. Providers were invited to consult on the review and were encouraged to tender for the services. A unique element of the new approach was inviting potential tenderers to have input into their own performance measures and service evaluation. The result is a comprehensive service evaluation process that focuses on outcomes, not necessarily through-put numbers, with self-determined KPIs. Gippsland PHN has a strong track record of commitment to Gippsland and to being accountable. Ms Proposch said governance standards were unashamedly high to ensure health outcomes and safe, quality care was delivered in Gippsland. “Strong accountability is the anchor enabling the work of the PHN, with strong governance that allows decisions to be made in the best interest of Gippsland communities. This is critical in our role as commissioners of services and in our procurement activities,” she said. “Several of our community and clinical advisors sit on our tender evaluation panels, along with industry subject matter experts, and their contribution is always outstanding and enriches our decision making.”

Donation helps animal rescue By JACI HICKEN

MAY was National Pet Foster Care Month and local businessman Jack Wyhoon took it upon himself to help out the Grounded Paws Animal Rescue service with a sizeable donation. Mr Wyhoon, a parent to dogs, said it was important to support the cause of rehoming rescued animals. “I want to see all animals go to a good home and the work they do here at Grounded Paws Animal Rescue does that,” Mr Wyhoon said. “I heard that the Cat Cafe was struggling and in need of support, so I’m here to help out.” Grounded Paws Animal Rescue operates the Traralgon Cat Cafe for ongoing fundraising and as a place, you can cuddle a kitten while having a coffee, even if you are not looking to adopt. Grounded Paws Animal Rescue director Shellie Chessum said the Cat Cafe was an ongoing source of fundraising for the animal rescue. “We rescue all animals from all over Gippsland, taking many from local pounds,” Ms Chessum said. “Through the Cat Cafe, the organisation is able to rehome 10 to 15 cats a week.” One of the programs the animal rescue runs is the ‘last litter program’, where they pay for people to get their cats de-sexed. “So far this year the animal rescue has spent over $33,000 to help the community and stop the stray cat population, so the donation from Jack will help,” Ms Chessum said. Grounded Paws Animal Rescue is a not-for-profit organisation and donations to help them rescue and rehome animals are tax deductible. The Traralgon Cat Cafe is open between 9.30am and 5pm, with bookings for a cat cuddle required on the weekends.

Saving lives is in the blood

VICTORIAN Emergency Services are launching a lifesaving campaign to help top-up blood supplies this winter. The emergency services blood drive is an annual challenge that sees services across the country compete to see who can give the most blood. With one in two donors cancelling their appointments at Traralgon Donor Centre and colds and flu expected to impact donations, Lifeblood faces a seasonal challenge. “We’re hoping donations by emergency service personnel will inspire other people from the region to donate blood and become lifesavers themselves,” Traralgon Donor Centre manager Ally Woolan said.

Page 40 — The Latrobe Valley Express, Wednesday, 15 June, 2022

“Winter is always a difficult time for blood donations because you need to be feeling 100 per cent well to donate. “Patients fighting cancer, infections and blood diseases are relying on donated blood to keep them healthy throughout winter. It only takes one hour to donate blood and help to save lives.” Emergency service workers see the benefits of blood donation every day through their work, but you don’t need to be a professional lifesaver to help save lives this winter. “If you’ve escaped the cold and flu season and are feeling 100 per cent healthy you may be eligible to donate,” Ms Woolan said.

MEMBER for Gippsland South Danny O’Brien was given plenty of work to do when he conducted a mobile electorate office visit to Jimmy Jambs Café in Mirboo North recently. “It was fantastic to be able to meet face-to-face with constituents and discuss matters that are most important to them at their local café,” he said. “Sometimes with such a big electorate it’s difficult for people to come to my office so I believe it’s important to take the office to them. “I take the responsibility of being the voice of Gippsland South in Parliament very seriously and it’s important that I hear all voices to ensure that I am addressing the issues that are important to regional Victorians.

“Helping people with state government issues is the focus of these trips, but many people came along just to chat or to vent about issues that are troubling them. “In Mirboo North there was a range of issues raised with me including roads, ongoing pandemic rules, local police presence, fire management and planning matters. “I am following up a number of concerns with the State Government as a result of these visits. I will be at a town near you again soon.” Mr O’Brien can be contacted at any time via 5144 1987 and email at danny.obrien@ parliament.vic.gov.au.

Reason to smile: Newborough has enjoyed exceptional depth so far this season, with its reserves side undefeated. Showing their support at the senior huddle are Will Troy, Joel Jacovou and Pat Frendo, who well and truly earnt his post-match beers after kicking six goals. One could argue it would be harder to kick six goals in the reserves than the seniors. photographs liam durkin

Blockbuster headlines round

SOCCER LVSL By LAURIE WILLIAMS

ROUND 11 PREVIEW  FALCONS V MOE THE feature match this Saturday will see Falcons take on Moe under lights. It is an important match for both teams, with Falcons equal first on top of the ladder, with Moe only four points behind. Last time Falcons beat Moe 2-1, so the Red Devils will be out for revenge and with added impetus knowing they will probably have to win most games for the rest of the season to have a chance of claiming the league. Falcons played well against Newborough/ Yallourn a fortnight ago, but leaked three goals which is unusual for the reliable defence. If Moe can exploit any weaknesses they will be in with a show. RECORD: PLAYED 51: MOE 24, FALCONS 19, DRAWN 8.

 FORTUNA V MONASH AN important game for Fortuna to keep building

up the points and keep within striking distance of the the top two. Last time it was a picnic with the Lions winning 5-1 and the Fortuna fans will be calling for another dominant display. Fortuna has been below their best in the last two games, but are expected to bounce back against the Wolves. Monash’s form has been spasmodic this season. While they have the potential to be higher on the table, they will need plenty of good play to beat the Lions. RECORD: PLAYED: 120, FORTUNA 63, MONASH 35 DRAWN 22.

 TRARALGON CITY V NEWBOROUGH/ YALLOURN SINCE their great draw against Fortuna a few weeks ago, the Roosters have taken a step backwards with three losses in succession to Newborough/Yallourn, Churchill and Sale. Traralgon City again faces the Combine due to a recent fixture change that saw the two clubs play each other after their game earlier in the season was cancelled due to COVID. Going off their last encounter, Traralgon City should be mentally prepared for a tough match.

Playing at home might see a close result for the Roosters, but on recent form United should be too strong.

AS if playing 1200 games didn’t already make you a legend. Moe United Soccer Club games record-holder Peter Albanese was officially elevated to legend status of the Latrobe Valley Soccer League on Saturday night. The presentation was made at a formal gathering of Red Devils players, officials and supporters for the club’s 70th anniversary. Well-known local soccer identity Lee Dastey made the presentation on behalf of LVSL president Allan Roberts. Roberts sent his congratulations, saying Albanese’s length of tenure and service to the league had been extraordinary - the likes of which will probably never be seen again. Of the around 1200 games Albanese has played, an estimated 800 have been in the seniors, and

 PEGASUS V SALE PEGASUS at home will be a hard nut for Sale to crack. The Horsemen are going along fine at the moment, pushing Falcons for top spot. Sale won well against Churchill in their last outing which gave the the club something to cheer about, but they will be in for a much greater challenge against a fleet-footed Pegasus team.

Deserved honour for Moe’s No.1 SOCCER LVSL By LIAM DURKIN

LVSL LADDERS

he has been with Moe United for almost half a century. Not one to ever show too much emotion or make a big deal out of individual awards, Albanese said he was “humbled” to receive the honour, citing a love of the game as the reason he kept playing. Amazingly, the 55-year-old is still regarded as the premier goalkeeper of the LVSL. Renowned for his ‘shot stopping’ ability, his work between the sticks has seen Moe United to no shortage of league titles over the years. Although he might belie his age, his longevity comes as little surprise as he still trains twice a week and completes preseason. Post-presentation, Albanese was swamped by well-wishes, while teammates gathered to give him ‘three cheers’ on stage. With no signs of slowing down, players within the LVSL look set to hear the call of ‘Albo’s ball’ for a few years to come yet.

Magpiies in fine form FOOTBALL MID GIPPSLAND By ROB POPPLESTONE & LIAM DURKIN

ROUND 9 marked the halfway point of the home-and-away season in Mid Gippsland football, and started to give some sort of indication of just where clubs could ‘hope’ to be but with no guarantee that it is where they ‘would’ be.

 FISH CREEK v YINNAR

IT was D-Day for Fish Creek. The Kangaroos were third from the bottom on the ladder and three games from the league’s top six and three games behind Yinnar. The Magpies had both the opportunity to kill off Fish Creek’s final hopes and also the chance to climb tantalisingly close to the top sides in the competition. In short, there was a lot to play for, but only one could be rewarded, and that was Yinnar with a comfortable 11.10 (76) to 3.6 (24) victory. Yinnar coach Daniel Taylor said it was a pleasing performance. “We got a five goal jump in the first quarter with the help of a pretty strong breeze, the second and third quarters were a real arm wrestle with Fish Creek having a lot of the momentum and territory, but not being able to hit the scoreboard which was a credit to our back six,” he said. “I’m really proud of the boys for digging in, it was a great win and a really important one for the group.” Fish Creek coach John Danckert said his side had a long way to go. “It was a bit of a reality check for us, we got left in the barriers and were down five goals early,” he said. “We fought back in the second and early in the third quarter, but Yinnar were too good in the end.” The Kangaroos’ season, while not officially over, has now reached a stage where winning, and stringing wins together, is now crucial, starting with their clash with Thorpdale this coming Saturday.

 FOSTER v BOOLARRA

THIS clash promised so much with Foster sitting precariously in sixth spot with a handful of clubs desperate to reel them in if they faltered. Boolarra, by contrast, was third before the weekend and within just percentage of moving into the coveted top two spots in the competition. Both sides have been in sensational form in recent weeks, but that winning momentum stopped abruptly for Boolarra, as Foster was too good and is now starting to make a real move up the ladder after winning 8.10 (58) to Boolarra 6.9 (45). Victorious coach Sam Davies praised the effort of his troops. “We got our reward for efforts in the third term, Boolarra are a really well-structured team who are where they are on the ladder for a reason. It was really a galvanising win for our group, some really special moments post game,” he said. It was possibly one that got away from Boolarra, with the Demons seemingly in control early in the day according to coach Tony Giardina. “It’s not a good day when 15 minutes of football costs you a game,” he said. “It puts us right back in the pack with more big games to come.” With just one win separating second-placed Newborough and the seventh-placed Foster, Boolarra, who currently sit in fourth spot must now prepare for the top-of-the-table and unbeaten Tarwin this week. Away from the seniors, Mid Gippsland followers may have noticed the name Jesse Giardina again among the top goalkickers in the early game. Giardina (son of Tony) kicked six on the weekend, backing up his effort of seven a fortnight prior. Having clearly lost none of his goal scoring power on the comeback trail, some interest will surely abound whether or not Giardina makes a return to the senior side at some stage.

 MDU V MORWELL EAST

ON their home ground and with everything to play for, MDU had prepared themselves for a ‘finals like’ clash with Morwell East. A win for the Hawks was a non-negotiable for coach Devon Soutar, fully aware that anything less than securing the four premiership points would put his side’s finals aspirations on very thin ice as they prepared for the second half of the year. The Hawks ended doing what was required, winning 15.16 (106) to the 7.5 (47). Morwell East are slowly starting to put

together the type of football that will trouble any side in the competition, and what’s more pleasing for Soutar is that his team is also doing it for longer. “We felt like we controlled the game across all quarters which is something we have struggled with so far this season,” he said. “The connection and trust within the group is growing and we are starting to all swim in the same direction.” MDU coach Peter Harris did not mince words when asked for his summation of the game. “We were outplayed all day by a better side. We need to turn a few things around for next week now,” he said.

 MIRBOO NORTH v TOORA

A WINLESS Toora turned up with belief that this game could deliver them their first victory of the season. The Magpies, even in their losses, had played some impressive patches of football and were confident that they might catch an out of sorts Mirboo North side off its game. For the Tigers however, a loss would mean their season would effectively be over, and that is something Mirboo North are not yet ready to give up. The Mirboo North pulse remained beating, after claiming a 14.9 (93) to 8.10 (58) win. Tigers’ coach Josh Taylor said it was good to secure the four points. “They were tough conditions on the weekend, wind roaring to one end of the ground, which made it a very defensive game all day, both sides playing loose backs, it was nice to break away in the last quarter and have a nice win,” he said. For Toora, players like Jack Weston, Peter Grant and Lukas Jenkins kept the Magpies in the game for much of the afternoon.

 TARWIN v HILL END

TARWIN had managed to fend off all comers in the opening rounds of the season, unbeaten and sitting on top of the ladder. The Sharks were well aware Hill End would possibly provide their biggest challenge to date. The Rovers, fresh from a week off, and with coach Mike Santo wanting to send a warning shot over the bow of the home side ahead of any likely meeting in the future, knew that this game was worth more than four points, it was also worth a mental edge to the victors. This edge went to Tarwin, who won convincingly 15.14 (104) to 5.10 (40). Tarwin coach Troy Hemming said it was a fantastic win. “It was great that the boys stood up on the big stage, really proud of the whole group, the boys are enjoying the footy and that’s all that matters,” he said. Hill End coach Mike Santo was willing to acknowledge the quality of opposition. “Tarwin were way too good for us on the day, they set up really well behind the ball, Troy Hemming has a great group with plenty of size and zip on the outside, they link up tremendously well and work for each other,” he said.

 STONY CREEK v NEWBOROUGH

JUST a game out of the top six and returning to their home ground, Stony Creek were as prepared as they could be for an in-form Newborough side. The Bulldogs had tackled some of the best sides in the competition in recent weeks and managed on each occasion to walk away with

the points. This run had them inside the top four but with a hunger for even more, that hunger was more and more evident as the game went on as Newborough ran out comfortable winners 10.14 (74) to 4.8 (32). The Bulldogs kicked into a very stiff breeze in the third quarter, and after managing to dominate possession, one got the feeling the damn wall was about to burst open. And so it proved as Newborough kicked 4.1 (25) to one behind in the final term. Under instruction to attack from the grandstand side of the racecourse ground, the Bulldogs were able to hit the scoreboard before conditions deteriorated completely around the 15-minute mark. Before that time, Joel Mitchell kicked one of his five goals for the day with a calculated set shot from the pocket that curled back like an in-swinger, while Jayden Van Dyk was able to launch one from long range. Despite the sloppy conditions, Mitchell had vice-like hands, marking most things that came his way in what was a very impressive exhibition. A potential match-up between Mitchell and Chris Verboon didn’t eventuate as the latter was on holiday, but spectators could still be treated to this contest if the two clubs happen to play each other in a final. Verboon has returned to his home club this season after a career at Leongatha saw him crowned the Gippsland League’s Most Valuable Player. Rain pelted down midway through the last quarter, as the game turned into a matter of running out the clock as quickly as possible. With the result beyond doubt, umpires too looked equally keen to get the match over and done with, as most if not all players would have been happy for the siren to go there and then. At least one journalist who had travelled to Stony Creek to catch the second half literally couldn’t feel his fingers, one can only imagine how the players felt. Josh Hecker capped off a best on ground display with a neat dribble goal toward the finish, while youngsters Liam Flahavin and Zac Skinner were also prominent. Someone who is perhaps not so young but continues to belie what his birth certificate says is Peter Ainsworth, who was again in the thick of the action for the Bulldogs. As well as Ainsworth, who has over 350 senior games of Gippsland League experience, the knowledge-base of Newborough players that have played at the higher level was evident in the second-half. During the third quarter, Van Dyk was able to get dangerous by sneaking goal side on a number of occasions, while Hayden Prestidge accumulated possessions on the wing simply by creating space and not getting drawn to the ball. Van Dyk and Prestidge combined smartly for the Bulldogs only goal of the third quarter, after Van Dyk took his time lining up for a set shot while most of the Stony Creek defence dropped back assuming he was going for glory. However, the kick instead went short to Prestidge, who, by not screaming for the ball, was able to sit in acres of space inside 50 with the opposition completely oblivious he had drifted forward. You can communicate without talking. Given the wind factor, the pass got the percentages in Newborough’s favour by turning a 40 metre set shot into a 25 metre set shot - of which Prestidge duly nailed. Newborough coach Craig Skinner said while the win wasn’t a great spectacle, it was always good to win on the road nonetheless. “We played an undermanned Stony Creek that turned on the South Gippsland weather which showcased their ground can withstand 180 millimetres in a week and the ball still bouncing at the final siren,” he said. “We did well into the wind to stop Stony from getting a head start and managed a small lead at half-time. It wasn’t worth the $12 entry, but we got going after half-time with Josh Hecker in the midfield and Joel Mitchell marking everything in his area. The effort from the Lions was genuine for most of the day, but the pressure is starting to build as each week passes. Stony Creek coach Jay Accardi said his team fought as best it could. “Well, in tough weather conditions against a strong Newborough outfit, we didn’t get the result we were after, but the boys cracked in all day and that’s all we asked for,” he said. Those wanting to see the quintessential country football ground might want to make the trip to Stony Creek. Players and umpires get changed in jockeys rooms and run out onto the ground across the racecourse straight. They even still have a manual scoreboard, surely one of the few left in existence in Gippsland. THORPDALE had the bye.


Gippsland League heats up FOOTBALL GIPPSLAND LEAGUE By LIAM DURKIN

THE second-half of the Gippsland League season gets underway this Saturday. Most teams will head into Round 10 fresh from a week off, having retreated for the midseason break over the Queen’s Birthday long weekend. Bairnsdale and Warragul played a standalone match last Saturday to complete Round 9. The Redlegs were too strong at home, winning 15.14 (104) to 8.13 (61). A six-goal second quarter broke the game open, with Bairnsdale going on its way from there to record its second win of the season. Shane McDonald, Austin Hodge, Josh Wykes, Sam Gilbert, coach Logan Austin and pocket-rocket Brayden McCarrey, who kicked four goals, collected best on ground honours for the victors. Jed Lamb was again prominent up forward for the Gulls, and finished with four majors. Fellow Carlton teammate Nick Graham was in the best players, as was Nick Mulqueen, James Davidson, Jake Hughes and Brad Hefford. The much maligned PlayHQ system looks to still be causing headaches for administrators, as Warragul had someone listed as just ‘player’ in the best as well. WARRAGUL returns home this week to take on Moe. Having dropped three of their last four games, the Lions simply need to win to stay in touch with the top three. Moe has no right to take Warragul lightly, and events of four weeks ago just a few minutes down the road at Drouin, where the Lions had to overcome an 18-point deficit at three-quarter time, will surely be in the memory bank of some players. MATCH of the round billing will see Traralgon host Leongatha. The battle of the two top teams should provide an indication into either Traralgon’s standing as a legitimate challenger, or just demonstrate how

much further ahead the Parrots are from the rest of the competition. Leongatha has mercilessly crucified opponents in recent weeks, winning its last two games by 153 and 94 points - the latter coming against a team that was second on the ladder at the time. The Parrots are three games clear on top, and in the eyes of most, only a hailstorm or major COVID outbreak on grand final day will be enough to stop them winning the flag. However, the Maroons have shown they have the capability to beat Leongatha, going down to them by only seven points at home back in Round 1. Since then, Traralgon has ticked off credible wins against other top five opponents, and will go into this week’s clash with four wins under their belt. This should bode well for belief within the Maroons group in thinking they can genuinely beat Leongatha, and forgetting the outcome for a moment, Traralgon will be eager to embrace the challenge of playing an opponent that looks to be firing on all cylinders. After all, a footballer with any soul wants to prove themselves against the best. From a technical side, Traralgon coach Jake Best will be charged with making sure his team has the right balance around the ball, and that not too many players are trying to be heroes and getting first hands on that ball. For it is not the contest itself that makes Leongatha so breathtakingly effective - it is what happens immediately after. MORWELL takes on Bairnsdale. The Tigers are seventh on the ladder heading into this game, which is looming as a must-win if they want to keep their finals aspirations alive. The Redlegs will be buoyed after their performance a few days ago, while Morwell will surely look to use its fresher legs to full advantage. Given this match is being pitted against one team coming off a break and one team that has just played, it does present an interesting case study. Debate has always raged in local footy surrounding the week off being an advantage or a hindrance. While logic would suggest a week off should mean clubs have a chance to get more players back,

it can also mean it takes longer for them to exit ‘holiday mode’. Conversely, the team that has played through might be battle-hardened, and with greater continuity of system. This can sometimes be on full display during a finals series, where the week off can often stall momentum. How often do you see teams have a week off in finals and not go all the way? Regardless of what happens for the rest of the season, Morwell appears happy where it sits in the grand scheme of things. In the club’s midseason report distributed recently, senior captain Boyd Bailey said there was plenty to be positive about for both the now and the future. “We are really happy with being able to produce an exciting brand of footy that has surprised a lot of good teams,” he said. “We have seen lots of improvement in our younger players and the improvement within the first nine rounds has been huge. (For the) rest of the season we are aiming to continue to play our style and get plenty of senior football into our younger players. “We want to win as many games as possible coming home and we feel we are in a good position to do this. “(If we) keep our training standards high and stay injury-free hopefully this gives us an opportunity to finish the year off well and we will continue to strive for a finals berth.” Coming home may prove the greatest challenge for Morwell - they will only play at home twice more after this round. A somewhat strange fixture has meant the Tigers have already played six out of nine games at home. Pundits will be watching on with interest to see if or when the burn-out factor kicks in for Morwell playing away most weeks as the regular season draws to a close. OTHER games see Maffra take on Drouin and Sale play Wonthaggi. The Eagles will start favourite against the Hawks, while the winner of the Magpies and Power clash could have huge ramifications when the top three is decided.

Netball wrap NETBALL By LIAM DURKIN

MID Gippsland was the only local league to play netball at the weekend, with the exception of Bairnsdale and Warragul, who played each other in a standalone fixture to complete Round 9 of the Gippsland League. Mirboo North firmed to premiership favouritism after defeating Toora in a close fought match 51-48. Playing at home, the Tigers were ahead when it mattered most, and now have a six-point lead at the top of the table. Perennial powerhouse Yinnar continued its methodical rise up the ladder with a 62-47 win over Fish Creek. The Magpies are equal third on the ladder with Toora, and will want to stay there to give themselves the best chance of beating Mirboo North come finals. Morwell East is another that looks to be a good show of earning a double chance. The Hawks doubled their opponents score at the weekend, defeating MDU 50-25. Boolarra had a big win over Foster 57-30, a result which is sure to do the Demons confidence no harm. Tarwin and Hill End played out a thriller decided by just one goal. The Sharks had their noses in front at the final whistle, taking their win tally to five. With 20 points to their name, Tarwin is one of three teams making up a logjam between five and seven. Newborough holds a place in the five by virtue of percentage, which was increased substantially at the weekend. The Bulldogs won 61-16 over Stony Creek, with Charlize Bird, Demi Caldow and Amber Macmanus among the best players. The win was cause for celebration, and in true 21st century fashion, Newborough coach Sammy Waters obliged with a team selfie to toast victory.

Tigers ready for Roughead boost

FOOTBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND By LIAM DURKIN

NORTH Gippsland football resumes this weekend. While all matches will carry a great deal of importance, the one carrying the most amount of interest involves Gormandale. The Tigers will welcome Hawthorn legend Jarryd Roughead to the fold for their match against Glengarry. Roughead’s arrival is set to create a buzz around the Gormandale Recreation Reserve, as the Tigers search for their second win of the season.

Roughead was secured by Gormandale to play a one-off game as part of a promotional campaign by brewing company Carlton & United last month. Elsewhere, top side Yallourn Yallourn North faces a danger game against Sale City. The Bulldogs have been one of the surprise packets this season, and are currently fifth on the ladder. Traralgon Tyers United meets Heyfield in what should be a competitive match. The Bombers are two wins out of the top three, while the Kangaroos started to hit their straps before the midseason break and need to keep winning to stay in contention for a finals berth.

Churchill takes on Rosedale at home. The Cougars can solidify their place toward the high point of the ladder with victory over the sixth-placed Blues, who will be equally motivated to take a scalp. Yarram travels to Cowwarr. The Demons have continued to find ways to win this season despite a mass exodus of players, speaking volumes of their quality and overall club culture. Yarram should claim the points against the Saints, but can expect a dogged fight from a team that generally gives opponents a run for their money. Woodside has the bye.

Our man reflects on first marathon

COMMENT By LIAM DURKIN

THE decision to run in this year’s Traralgon Harriers Marathon continued a belief I have carried throughout my time writing sport. The reader generally wants the full story, so what better way to tell it than to be inside the narrative itself. So, with that philosophy in mind I entered the full marathon. I’ll be the first to admit I had no idea what I was doing. Had I ever ran a marathon before? No. Had I done any specific training for one? No. Do I know much about running technique or sport science? Not really. What I did have however was relevant experience in other fields, fields which I was hoping I could draw on as I put pavement for the p foot to p marathon. Having played a lot of two-day cricket, the issue of longevity regarding the marathon n wasn’t going to be a problem. If I could spend six hours in a field d working at one task I could surely spend the four or so required to complete a marathon. Cricket also teaches you mental toughness. You learn that pretty quickly as a 17/18-year-old facing A Grade bowlers trying to knock your block off. Out in the middle there is nowhere to hide - I thought the same could be applied to a 42 kilometre run. Fitness wise I felt I had a relatively solid base. I had a full football preseason under my belt which I figured would count for something. I’d won our club’s 2km time trial during summer with

a time of 6:40. Granted the marathon was a much greater distance, but you can’t run a 2km time like that without a decent volume of work behind you. I’d also done a number of 20km runs along the Moe/Yallourn Rail Trail in the past, so my body was use to some form of long distance running. Having grown up on a farm and gone to boarding school as well, you were always outside or moving. Living out of town the only way to get around was either on foot or on your bike. At boarding school you had to be physically and mentally fit just to survive. A lifetime of fitness and mental toughness surely a good starting point to run a marathon. The day leading into the marathon was a bit of a mad scramble. Ordinarily I am one to be meticulous with my i ffor either i h cricket i k or ffootball. b ll I need d preparation to have everything perfectly packed and give myself plenty of time to drive to the venue to get re ge r ady. F r the marathon however, a few factors Fo d d no di n t allow this to happen. I normally spe d Sunday’s compiling sport sp spen pages for The Express, but given pa t e likely exhaustion to follow th the marathon, I needed to get th a l this done Saturday night. al I religiously need to get eiight hours sleep every night, but writing pages of sport is a time-consuming task and I was writing up until 11.30pm the night b fore the marathon. be I got to bed around m dnight and had mi the alarm set for 6am. Not ideal, but I always remember s mething Sam Mitchell so said when he spoke about preparation as being ‘malleable to cirrcumstance’. He went on to explain how he once had a 38-possession

game coming off two hours sleep while his wife was in hospital giving birth. The preparation obviously wasn’t great, but as Mitchell said “it was the best routine I could have had for that day”. So, with just under two hours between wake-up and take-off, I had to get ready as best I could for what was ahead. I’d been told of the benefits of eating bananas before a long distance run, and I had some handy, but in the end I just had what I have for breakfast every morning - muesli and Greek yoghurt topped with a few diced strawberries. Not before I have my black tea though. I fear I would go insane without my tea.

I had played a full game of footy the day before as well so I had to keep that in perspective. Not knowing what to expect, and knowing I looked totally out of place in my current get-up, I was given a small rev-up by one of the many lovely Harriers members, the gist of which went “look at me, I am an old lady and I have done 20 of these, if I can do it, you can do it”. With those words, I headed to the starting line, and from there, it was headband on (we all need a trademark after all) and on your marks. I wouldn’t say I was ready, but I was as ready as I could be. I was sure enough going to find out if I was not ready. As the gun was shot the field set off along Burnets Rd to welcoming applause. Those with ambitions of setting times under three hours broke from the pack, leaving most of us to settle in for the long haul. To borrow from football-speak I was ‘just ticking them over’ at this stage, cautious of the fact I wanted to still be running and now crawling in the last 10. There was already jokes going between runners about pulling out, which served as a bit of comic relief. A left turn off Burnets Rd heading back toward Traralgon acted as a precursor to the main drag that lay ahead. Running along the Gippsland Plains Rail Trail, we made a u-turn at the start of the trail and headed for the far off distant town of Toongabbie. This ignited the time most of the field dispersed. I myself glanced up at a sign that said Traralgon to Stratford was 60km along the rail trail. My first reaction to that started with the letter F, and knowing the marathon length was more than two-thirds of that, there was clearly a long way to go. In the early stages of the run I was jogging alongside a seasoned campaigner, quite some years older than me. Knowing the Harriers mantra of this being ‘the friendly marathon’, he said with an admirable sense of positivity “no matter what happens, keep smiling”. I couldn’t help, but smile wryly in response. I ended up passing this gentleman some time later, and sure enough, he was still smiling, true to his word.


experience step by step of the way

As the run continued we strolled to Glengarry and further north. Those enjoying Sunday breakfast clapped us through Glengarry at the old train station, while local scouts, Lions Club and Gippsland Plains Rail Trail committee members were there in support and marshalled us along at various intersections. A number of drink stations were set up along the course. Being the novice I was, I thought they would be staggered every 10km, so I used them more or less as checkpoints to tick off along the way. After the fourth one I knew this wasn’t the case as it was located on the outskirts of Toongabbie, which equated to about halfway. The field had well and truly separated by then, and leading up to that point I had been feeling fine in a physical sense. The competitive side of me had declined water up until halfway. For some reason before that I had in my head Denzel Washington’s line from Remember the Titans - “water is for cowards, water makes you weak”. Totally illogical of course, but having been brought up in a football club environment you are always looking for ways to show some sort of bravado. I was able to take my mind off running for a while just by daydreaming. By doing so I felt my body movements were more or less automated. My football team had lost heavily the day before for the second week in a row, so I spend a good amount of time thinking along the lines of “okay if we repeat the wins we’ve had in the second half of the season and pick up points against x, y, z that will take us to so many wins which puts us here on the ladder”. There was other random reflections I had during the run. I passed a group of kids carrying a scooter along the dirt track and couldn’t help but think “funny place to be riding a scooter”. The encouragement continued from fellow runners, even from leaders who were so far ahead of everyone passing people on the way back. I didn’t know whether this was a runners code of some sort or just a Harriers thing, but every time someone ran past or overtook you

the words of ‘good work’ or ‘keep going’ echoed around. Being reserved by nature I was caught off guard a few times when people ran past, not exactly knowing what to say, I just gave a nod of the head and raised eyebrows as if to say “hey, you’re doing alright”. Heading back towards Traralgon I could see Loy Yang Power Station in the distance and used that as something to figuratively run toward. I thought it would get bigger the closer I got, but it seemed to stay the same size which may well have been a blessing in disguise. Passing the second-last drink station I nabbed a few of the jelly snakes on offer, more so in the thought the sensation of chewing would act as a distraction to running rather than providing a sugar-hit. In Glengarry on the way back I was greeted with ‘only 10km to go’ by a passer-by. That 10km mark had arrived, now I was going to find out if it was in fact the hardest. The verdict? I wouldn’t say it was any harder than the previous 30km, but I will admit to becoming delirious around this point. Physically, the inside of both quads were starting to burn, but it was nothing you couldn’t push through. The main thing that stood out was my sense of reality. For a moment I couldn’t remember if I had run through Glengarry or not, and even after I had, I wasn’t sure if I was even going the right way. The rail trail back to the Vineyard was sealed in parts, but I could have sworn the whole track was gravel when I had run on it in the first half of the marathon. Just prior to this I passed a woman on a bike who was none other than the one who had given me the pre-race pep talk. I knew there wasn’t far to go and once I got to a series of foot bridges along the rail trail I knew there and then the finish line was in sight. From the last leg of the rail trail I could now see the finish line clearly, nestled on a hill at the top of the Vineyard’s driveway. The inflatable blue finish line was hard not to take a glance at every so often in those final few moments. There you just have every football and cricket

coach ringing in your ear telling you about process over outcome. Just before the finish I went past another competitor. Knowing our times were of no real significance, I asked if he wanted to cross together. He told me to go on ahead, so I did, past the Vineyard entrance, which was being guarded by spectators with beers in hand. One of them asked if I wanted one. While I could see the funny side, I could also see the much greater priority of the finish line. The final challenge was a small hill heading up the Vineyard’s driveway. Readers familiar with that hill might scoff at the suggestion it is small, but having grown up in Thorpdale, where there are more hills than days of the year, there aren’t too many slopes that can take you by surprise. If you want to run up a real hill check out School Rd in Trafalgar. With the finish line only a few metres away, Harriers members gathered to welcome me across. After finally touching in I was handed a red Gatorade, which was gone in the next five seconds. The most surprising part I found was how off-balance I was. Having ran at the same pace for over four hours, the mundane task of walking suddenly became a challenge. Taking in football preseason once again, we are constantly told to ‘keep moving’, and to have ‘no hands on knees’ following a series of runs. This is all I had to go on in my immediate recovery after the marathon. I walked, or more hobbled, around for a bit, talking to race director Steve Renehan. I confided in him I underestimated just how far 42km was, but was happy to have finished nonetheless. By now I was starving, which was another aspect I wasn’t quite prepared for. Luckily the Harriers were prepared for this, and had enough food to feed a small army. Lunch bags filled with ham, chicken and salad rolls had been prepared. Each bag also had yoghurt, dried fruit and a chocolate bar inside, while soup, a cheese platter and a huge selection of fresh fruit was also available.

I spoke to Harriers president Phill Mayer in the function room afterwards. His team really had done a great job putting together a great race. I then reacquainted with the runner I’d passed toward the finish. He introduced himself as Jason and gave me some gel packs to try out. Here was someone I didn’t even know less than an hour ago, and there we were sharing a meal together. Post-presentation, those who had taken part began to head off. By this stage I could barely walk, but I managed to manoeuvre myself into my car. On the way out I decided to drive to Toongabbie and back just to get an appreciation of how far it was. With radio tuned off and just the sound of an engine humming in the background, there was a moment I was able to privately acknowledge, in a somewhat self-fulfilling way that “yes, you did cover a lot of ground”. The sheer soreness in my legs wasn’t a great surprise, but it was a surprise just how long the pain lasted. Even on the Tuesday night I was still feeling tender. What really throttled me however was fatigue. I got home around 2pm Sunday, laid down, and woke up 14 hours later. Running a marathon was something I always felt I could do, so it was pleasing to prove to myself that I could. My official time was 4.19:12, but judging by the way each finisher was congratulated, results or times didn’t appear to be the most important thing. Playing football in winter and cricket in summer, you are indoctrinated to believe success is only determined by winning or losing. In marathon running however, the emphasis seems to be more geared toward seeing a task through to the end. Everyone who completed the marathon, half-marathon or 10km event as part of the Traralgon Marathon was given a medal with the word ‘Finisher’ written in capital letters. As much as we all want to win, the word finisher evokes a quality without which winning isn’t possible. For to finish means you didn’t give up. And it is hard to beat somebody who never gives up.

Celebrations as Moe United turns 70 SOCCER LVSL By LIAM DURKIN

MOE United Soccer Club celebrated its 70th anniversary last Saturday. Players, officials and supporters gathered to reminisce, recall and remember deeds performed during their days with the Red Devils, with a number of specials events taking place as part of the celebrations. A past-players match was arranged by club legend John Cardona, and played as a tribute game in honour of late Moe United icon Bert Lietzau. A formal event was then held later in the evening at the Moe Racing Club, where the Red Devils announced their greatest team of all time. Ever the professionals, Moe United players of today did not see the club’s anniversary or the fact there was no competition matches across the weekend due to the Queen’s Birthday as an excuse not to train, taking to their Olympic Park pitch on Saturday morning. Perhaps it is this commitment that has led Moe United to become arguably the most successful club in the Latrobe Valley Soccer League since starting out way back in 1952.

Great show: Moe United past players gathered for a tribute game to club icon Bert Lietzau as part of the anniversary.

A CLUB IS BORN

MOE United Soccer Club was formed in November 1952 and played its home matches at the racecourse. The racecourse set-up was indeed primitive, as the pitch was used as a car park whenever there was a meeting on. In terms of geography, the old Moe United home ground was located near where Apex Park is now. The Red Devils were a strong team from the outset, finishing runner-up in the league four years running from 1953-56. It had to wait until 1960 however to put something in the trophy cabinet, winning the Battle of Britain Cup. During the early years there was also the formation of the Moe Rapids, a Dutch contingent of the club that broke away to form their own team. Come 1971, the Red Devils found a new home ground at Olympic Park along Vale St, a place that has been home ever since. In a stark contrast however, that same year playing stocks were stretched to the limit, with youngsters fronting up to take part in junior, reserve and senior matches all on the one weekend. While some of the hits were severe, they paved the way for Moe United to dominate in the years to follow. And dominant they did.

GOLDEN ERA

MOE United won the first of a quartet of LVSL titles in 1975 … and just kept winning from there. As well as senior titles from ’75-’78, the team also claimed the Battle of Britain in 1976 and ’77, Charity Bowl in ’77, Six-a-Side trophy in ’77 and Joe Hutchinson Trophy in ’78. The Red Devils had exceptional bench strength during this time, with its reserves winning four league championships in five years between 1974 and ’78. Chris Tullett was the man to lead Moe to its first ever senior championship, before Les Stansbury took over and saw the team go back-to-back 1977 proved to be Moe United’s greatest season. The Red Devils swept the LVSL clean, winning all league trophies on offer in the seniors and reserves.

TESTING THE WATERS

HAVING blitzed the local scene, Moe United decided it was time for a new challenge. The club’s 25th year coincided with a record fourth consecutive championship in 1978, and the following season, the Red Devils were accepted into the Victorian Provisional League. The step up certainly proved a different dynamic, with little old Moe competing against metropolitan clubs and teams from much larger towns and with much larger budgets such as Geelong and Shepparton. The Red Devils were not totally disgraced in their five-year stint at the higher level, winning half a dozen or so games most years. Moe United made it as high as Division 2 in 1982, while its best finish was eighth of 12 teams in 1980.

First of many: Moe United claimed its maiden trophy in 1960. photograph supplied However, with the financial pressure to stay competitive at Provincial level mounting, the Red Devils hand was eventually forced, and they returned to the LVSL in 1984.

BACK WITH A BANG

IT did not take long for Moe United to again be on the podium at LVSL level. The Red Devils won back-to-back league championships in 1988-89 under club legend Andrew Bednarski. By now Moe United’s women’s team was also enjoying success, and won a hat-trick of league titles from 1988 to 1990. The 1990s saw another senior league title added in 1997, while trophies were also sprinkled across the reserves and second division side.

MODERN DAY MARVELS

AFTER a bit of a dry-spell in the 2000s, Moe United has enjoyed its second-best era in recent years. The club welcomed new clubrooms in 2012, which saw two more senior championships added in the four years to follow. The Red Devils most recent championship came in 2016, in what was an emotion charged moment as Bert Lietzau presented the winning trophy. That win marked Moe’s ninth title, making the Red Devils, the LVSL’s most successful club in terms of senior championships. Moe United looked set to make it a 10th last season before it was decided not to award a championship amid the COVID pandemic. The Red Devils were in a virtually unlosable position, four points clear on top of the ladder with a game in hand and five rounds to go.

THE MIRACLE OF 2013

Go the Red Devils: Moe United Soccer Club vice-president Lachlan McKenzie, long serving committee member John Cardona and president Reg Poxon celebrated the club’s 70th anniversary at the weekend.

Moe, one belongs in a category all on its own. Forget Cinderella stories, forget fairy tales, forget rags to riches, what Moe United managed to pull off in 2013 is surely the most improbable win any team in Gippsland has ever seen - in any sport for that matter. While the full story can be saved for the 10-year reunion, in short, the Red Devils were eight points behind Churchill with three games to go, and went on to win the league by a point. The ending was one of the most dramatic finales in LVSL history. Moe United, needing to win the last game of the season against Traralgon City to claim the silverware, hit the lead on the stroke of full-time, sending a disbelieving public into raptures. Even the most diehard Red Devils were ready to concede with three weeks to go, as was coach Lee Dastey. One can only imagine what the odds of a Moe United championship were at that stage. The odds of something like it ever happening again are probably even higher.

GALAXY OF STARS

MOE United has produced no shortage of great players across 70 years. A litany of those who have donned a red shirt have gone on to have stellar careers at national or metropolitan level, with one even making it all the way to the Australian team. Matildas goalkeeper Teagan Micah started her career at Moe United, and has played eight internationals to date. The local product keeps tabs with her old club, and a Teagan Micah signed Australia shirt with the words ‘to Moe United, cheers’ takes pride of place in the Red Devils rooms.

Incredible: Moe’s most remarkable championship was won in 2013. The Red Devils came from the clouds to take the title in dramatic fashion by one point. photograph supplied

MOE UNITED SOCCER CLUB ‘The Red Devils’ Founded: 1952 Senior league champions: 1975, 1976, 1977, 1978, 1988, 1989, 1997, 2013, 2016. Battle of Britain Cup: 1960, 1976, 1977, 1988, 1989. Charity Bowl: 1977, 1999. Top four premiers: 2007, 2014, 2016. Reserve league champions: 1974, 1976, 1977, 1978. Second Division league champions: 1986, 1988, 2004, 2005. Women’s league champions: 1988, 1989, 1990. Life members: Bert Lietzau, Marj Lietzau, Walter Hardy, Jan Van Zanin, Frank Wakker, Henry Huizer, Gerd Raun, Cess Van Oosterom, Corrie Koppen, Archie McGarry, Joe Meli, John Cardona, Rick Umbrasas, Reno Borg, Tony Koppen, Peter Albanesee, Gordon McHallam, Paul Fletcher, Andrew Bednarski, Frank Heusmann, Lee Dastey.

Other Moe players to have progressed far in their soccer include Manny and Peter Gelagotis, Adrian Savage, Ross Duckworth, Keegan Grealy, Lee Dastey, Andrew Bednarski, Jason Koppen, Sam Gatpan, Jobie Heusmann, Marc McHallam, Joel Baldwin, Joe Gauci, Les Stansbury, Bob Duljas and Werner Broad, who all played metro or National Soccer League. Stansbury is universally regarded as the best player to ever play for Moe United. He won seven best-and-fairests for the Red Devils and coached the club to three consecutive senior championships (1976, ’77, ’78). In a true show of his class, he was runner-up in the Provisional League Division 3 league best-and-fairest in 1979. Marc McHallam has five club best and fairests to his name, while Joel Baldwin and Gordon McHallam each have three. Current goalkeeper Peter Albanese has played the most games for the club, with a remarkable 1200 or so to his name. Past player John Cardona has been awarded best clubperson 11 times, and is still an active member of the committee and has done an extensive amount of research detailing the club’s history.

AND NOW

TAKING a moment to reflect on the club’s 70-year milestone, club president Reg Poxon said the anniversary had been a great celebration of all things Moe United, more so the people rather than any trophies. “I look at this club and the people I have met here are family. You meet people and I think that is what sport is all about,” he said. Heading into the immediate future, the club has plans to host more night games now that it has adequate lights, and connecting further with other Moe sporting organisations through initiatives such as dual membership. With such a rich history behind them, it seems a certainty one will still hear Moe United players singing their club song to toast victory in another 70 years: Ho! Ho! Ho! We are the Moe It’s only now and then we lose a game, we lose a game Oh we play them all around On our home or any ground If they only play a fair and honest game We are the Moe We are the team We can’t be beaten That’s easily seen At the end of the season You’ll know the reason Moe are the premier team


FOOTBALL MID GIPPSLAND By LIAM DURKIN

MORWELL East Football-Netball Club met last Thursday night to discuss the long-term direction of the club. While most local football and netball followers were quick to make assertions, the meeting did not automatically mean the Hawks were seeking a move out of the Mid Gippsland Football-Netball League. The meeting instead wished to garner a consensus view from members about what would best serve Morwell East moving forward. Members were provided with a questionnaire, information from which will be used by the club in formalising a follow-up meeting in due course. Morwell East FNC president Colin King stressed the club was “not anti-Mid Gippsland”, but having now got a taste for the new MGFNL after two years, said the club needed to take another look at its options. King cited the “South Gippsland focus” of the

new MGFNL, taking in six previous Alberton Football-Netball League clubs, as a reason the Hawks had decided to call the whole club meeting. Inevitably, a whole club meeting involving Morwell East meant the words ‘North Gippsland Football-Netball League’ were mentioned in the same sentence. This is not the first time talk of Morwell East joining the NGFNL has done the rounds. Rumours surrounded the Hawks moving to North Gippsland a couple of years ago, only for the club (to their credit) to get on the front foot and publicity squash and clarify the innuendo. King said any such decision regarding Morwell East’s playing arrangements would be at the hands of a majority vote from members. When asked about a possible Morwell East defection, MGFNL publicity officer Rob Popplestone said the league “wouldn’t want to lose them”, adding it would be “interesting to see how it plays out.” From a travel viewpoint, the Hawks would have most North Gippsland clubs covered within a local corridor (Yallourn Yallourn North, Glengarry,

TTU, Churchill, Rosedale, Sale City, Heyfield, Gormandale and Cowwarr), and would take the league up to 12 teams, thus eliminating the bye. The bye would also be eliminated in Mid Gippsland, as the league would become a 12-team competition. Those at Morwell East with a soft spot for history however may find it hard to leave Mid Gippsland. The Hawks have only ever competed in the MGFNL since their inception in 1973, and have a number of life members currently serving on the Mid Gippsland board. If Morwell East was to leave, they will join YYN and Trafalgar, who joined the Ellinbank and District league at the end of 2020, as former Mid Gippsland clubs since the ‘new Mid Gippy’ was established, as well as Yarragon, which left for the 2019 season. Such an outcome could well call into question the amount of time, energy and research that has been undermined from AFL Gippsland in recommending the MGFNL and AFNL come together in the first place for what was sold as being for the ‘betterment’ of football in the local area.

Bocce Nationals held in Morwell BOCCE

THE Bocce Nationals took place in Morwell over the long weekend. Teams from across the country came to the Italian Australian Club to compete in a tournament that welcomed players of state and even international standing. The Nationals were a huge coup for the Italian Australian Club, as it was just the second time in Bocce Australia’s history the tournament was held in a regional town. This, added with the fact the Nationals had been rescheduled multiple times, capped off an extensive amount of work for locals involved at the Italian Australian Club. So big was the tournament, volunteers even had to construct new courts to accommodate the number of teams. The Bocce Nationals started on Friday, and presentations were made Monday. Due to timing restraints, results from the tournament were not known at the time The Express went to press. A full wrap of the Bocce Nationals will be published in next week’s issue.
