Labor hopeful Dr Kate Maxfield will contest the seat of Morwell

FULL STORY - PAGE 7

Incumbent officially rules out running in the state election

By MICHELLE SLATER

INDEPENDENT Member for Morwell Russell Northe will not be recontesting this year’s state election, after holding the seat since 2006. Mr Northe told The Express he will be quitting politics at the November election and would “have more to say at a later time”. “I do wish to take the opportunity to sincerely thank those who have supported me during my years as a Member of Parliament, and wish all candidates the very best in the lead up to the election,” Mr Northe said.

Mr Northe was first voted into the former Labor safe seat 16 years ago, wining Morwell with 52.12 per cent of the two-party preferred vote from Labor MP Brendan Jenkins. The popular ex-Traralgon Football Club mifielder and coach first took the seat as a Nationals MP, and later turned Morwell into a safe electorate for the Victorian Coalition. He was elevated to Cabinet under the Napthine Government, becoming Minister for Small Business and Minister for Energy and Resources, holding Continued on page 3

Exhibition in Glengarry By MICHELLE SLATER

BEFORE

ART connoisseurs can enjoy a day of wine, music and food with a series of events that will showcase the history, creativity and cuisine of Glengarry. Pottery to the Vines is a day-long creative outing that will take visitors through Glengarry, starting off with an exhibition and morning tea, a pottery workshop and live music, lunch and wine. Local Gunai artist Ronald Edwards Pepper is featuring his latest exhibition ‘Colours of Country’ at Café 3854, with about 20 artworks including painting and

mixed-media. Mr Edwards Pepper said the show was about the colour and nature of Australia using contemporary colours and traditional markings. “The show represents the colours of Australia and all the beautiful flowers and trees and how it used to be when the Aboriginal people lived off the land, walking on country,” he said. Mr Edwards Pepper pointed to a central work looking at pre-colonialism, featuring the imagery of the Australian continent, native fauna and symbolic motifs. “Australia is made up of different colours, cultures

and ways of life. Uluru is in the middle of Australia, it represents a big meeting place and this spreads out to other clan groups,” he said. “When the floods were happening, all the rain was reviving the land, coloured raindrops fall on the land. “When I was younger, we saw a lot of bush animals, but we don’t see as many now.” The latest exhibition comes off the back of the Yirrimboi Festival, in which one of Mr Edwards Pepper’s paintings was in a prime position up on a metro tunnel siding on Swanston Street. The Morwell artist has had a prolific career in Australia and internationally, with several public works in the Latrobe Valley, including on the Glengarry bus stop. Pottery to the Vines is being organised by local artist Steph Shields, who is working collaboratively with a raft of local creatives and venues. “It’s about drawing people from outside the postcode into Glengarry to encourage tourism and connection in the township,” she said. “This is developing connections with other creators and makers, hopefully we can keep doing projects like this to continue community activation.” Colours of Country runs until October 30.

Shing’s key water role in mine rehabilitation

E L A S DOWN AYS

By MICHELLE SLATER

RECENTLY-APPOINTED front bencher Harriet Shing has stressed the need to continue to explore options around Latrobe Valley mine rehabilitation, since taking on the responsible portfolio. The Labor Member for Eastern Victoria was made Minister for Water, Regional Development and Equality in a state Labor Cabinet re-shuffle earlier this month. It comes after a raft of state government ministers announced they were quitting at the November state election. Ms Shing - who has an electoral office in Morwell - entered the state parliament’s Upper House in 2014. She will be sharing responsibilities for mine rehabilitation in her water and regional development portfolios, as well as with the ministers for environment, climate change, and energy and resources. “Water at the moment is cheap and plentiful, but we know this won’t always be the case,” Ms Shing said. “It’s important to make sure that we are considering options that are prioritised by the mine rehabilitation commissioner, project groups and operators and managing this against the needs of the community and irrigators, striking a balance.” It comes as Hazelwood mine operator ENGIE has touted creating a pit lake to rehabilitate the open cut, the plan gaining criticism over water availability and water quality for downstream users. Ms Shing acknowledged that there would be “similar challenges” at the Valley’s other mines. “The work we do at Hazelwood will be a significant help in what we do across the Latrobe Valley as far as rehabilitation goes,” she said. “This is a careful body of work and we will continue to explore all available options and the right solutions for the challenges we have here.”

this portfolio during the Hazelwood Mine fire in 2014. Mr Northe sat as a Nationals MP for 11 years, before he quit the party in 2017 when he took a break, citing issues with depression, gambling and debts, and came back as an Independent. The now 56-year-old recontested Morwell as an Independent in 2018, narrowly winning the seat with a reduced margin of 1.84 per cent against Labor. Latrobe University adjunct research fellow in politics Ian Tulloch said he believed Mr Northe’s departure would pave the way for The Nationals to reclaim the seat. It comes as Victorian Electoral Commission boundary redistributions shuffled Moe into the electorate, providing with it a traditional Labor vote. But Dr Tulloch said he did not think this would affect the outcome for Morwell, which would be won on the rural conservative vote, with a contest between the Liberals and Nationals. So far, two candidates have put up their hand for Morwell, with Traralgon Football-Netball Club member Martin Cameron standing for The

Ms Shing pointed to $2 billion in investment in the region since she was elected, but said it was important to keep investing to attract jobs growth the Valley. “I’m really delighted to be in this role where I can put my efforts and energy into the portfolios I’ve been privileged to take on; it’s a role in public service I take very seriously,” Ms Shing said. “I’ve taken my role as a local Member very seriously; I’m looking forward to getting into the thick of working in these portfolios and continuing this over time. “I won’t stop being a local Member for the eastern Victorian region. It’s also really important I’m representing and advocating for the needs to rural Victoria all over the state.”

Nationals, and emergency department doctor Kate Maxfield for Labor. Dr Tulloch said he did not expect an Independent to win Morwell off the back of the success of the small Liberal teals in the Federal Election, who campaigned strongly on climate action. “Russell Northe was a popular local person and not a typical independent because of his strong association with the Nationals in the past,” Dr Tulloch said. “Morwell is not a seat Labor can expect to win and I don’t expect them to win it. The Nationals should hold it comfortably. It is not a crucial seat and I don’t think it will go down to the wire.” Dr Tulloch said he expected there to be an overall swing against the Andrews Labor Government, but Labor would still win the election with a reduced margin. He said the seats of most interest were in Melbourne’s east and outer south-east. “It will be interesting to see how the polls go in the lead-up in the campaign proper. Most people don’t even know who the senior Opposition front benchers are, they have such a low profile,” he said.

Rainbrow Brick Road Project By MICHELLE SLATER

GIPPSLAND Pride Initiative is running an inaugural program to help understand what rainbow-friendly services are available, and how accessibility can be improved for the region’s LGBTIQA+ community. The Rainbow Brick Road project is looking to collect data about LGBTIQA+ community’s experiences accessing local services in the region, working with health, education, police and other providers. The project will include a survey, a series of roundtable discussions with service providers, public drop-in sessions, and informal social gatherings for the LGBTIQA+ community and friends. Gippsland Pride president Caitlin Grigsby said there was no solid data providing information on the region’s LGBTIQA+ community, or what services were available to them. Ms Grigsby said the community was still encountering discrimination and stigma from service providers, with some people unable to find social connections within their own regions. “We are constantly putting out fires. We are taking messages from people all across Gippsland asking which doctors we can go to without being discriminated against,” Ms Grigsby said. “I’m hearing stories about kids being bullied at school. Some people call me to say how scared they are, but we need the evidence to see where things are needed to tackle this. “Other than anecdotal stories, we have no data of how much of Gippsland is a part of the queer community, or which rainbow-friendly services are available.” The survey will collect demographic information and ask about experiences accessing health, education or emergency services, or participation in community or sporting clubs. Other parts of the projects include sessions with health providers, agencies, emergency services and schools in each Gippsland region, as well as free drop-in sessions to learn more about inclusivity. Pride Gippsland is also planning informal social gatherings to help connect members of the LGBTQIA+ community. “There are some people who may not know another gay person in their community, half the battle is isolation. We want to run something to connect people in each region,” Ms Grigsby said. “We want something in which people can take off their mask and don’t have to hide and connect with others.” The Rainbow Brick Road is being funded by Loy Yang B, with a publicly accessible report to be launched in October, and taken to the newlyappointed Equality Minister Harriet Shing. The report will be used to help create a strategic plan for Gippsland, and to create a directory for rainbow-friendly services in the region.

Labor chooses doctor By MICHELLE SLATER

A LATROBE Valley medical doctor with a Labor pedigree will be taking on the November state election as the newly-minted Labor candidate for Morwell. Kate Maxfield was endorsed about a week ago, and is the second candidate to officially nominate for the marginal seat, after the Nationals Martin Cameron put his hand up earlier this month. Dr Maxfield had previously stood as a Labor candidate for the seat of Gippsland East in 2014. Labor last held the seat of Morwell in 2006 under Brendan Jenkins The daughter of former Labor Member for Narracan Ian Maxfield said she grew up on the hustings alongside her father, which allowed her to gain an understanding of the region. “Labor has invested in jobs, education and health. I come from a union background and we will always prioritise workers, we are at a critical time in the Valley’s history,” Dr Maxfield said. “I will make sure I prioritise the people of the Valley, create jobs and make people better off.” Dr Maxfield is an emergency department doctor at Latrobe Regional Hospital, stating she was in the front line when the pandemic hit. The seventh-generation Gippslander and Morwell local had worked in the hotel quarantine system, where she treated the state’s first Omricon patient. She also lent a hand in the 2019/20 Black Summer bushfires by leading a team of four, providing emergency support to GPs in Mallacoota. “I decided to run for Labor because the Moe hospital I was born in was shut down by the Kennett Government. I’m standing up to protect health services in the Latrobe Valley,” she said. “This is a significant and powerful thing I can do. The Labor Government has always prioritised health.

“We need on-going investment in the Latrobe Valley, it’s a challenging time and we are still in a pandemic.” Dr Maxfield praised the Andrews Government’s handling of the pandemic by putting “politics aside and listening to the advice from the medical fraternity”. She cited the state government’s $217 million investment in the Latrobe Regional Hospital, as well as the Latrobe Valley Authority transition programs, free TAFE and kindergarten. Deputy Premier Jacinta Allan was in Morwell last week supporting the new candidate. “Kate Maxfield has a really strong connection to the local community, she is born and bred in Gippsland and has supported the community in the most challenging of times,” Ms Allan said. “We will put on a strong show in Morwell like we do in all the regional seats, and will put forward a strong set of policies, programs and projects to the community of Morwell.”

River diversions repaired

ENERGYAustralia is in the final stages of repairing the Morwell River Diversion at the Yallourn Mine after last year’s flooding caused parts of the structure to crack. A set of water diversions at the Yallourn Mine and upstream at Hazelwood has been constructed. Engineers have been able to investigate the extent of damage. EnergyAustralia was responsible for the financial cost of the repairs, and has assured these works will not influence the long-term rehabilitation for the Yallourn or Hazelwood Mines. “We appreciate the strong support of the Victorian government, local community, unions, regulators and especially our Yallourn workforce during this time,” Head of Yallourn Greg McIntyre said. The inspections revealed some cracking in the southern area of the MRD in the Low Flow Channel, which carries regular flows, and the High Flow Channel, which carries floodwater. The Low Flow Channel was returned to service

in late April, and maintenance on the High Flow Channel was completed in late May. Works an offsite water diversion at Hazelwood to carry three gigalitres of water per-day are also finished, but this will only be used to divert water in high rain or flooding. Additional onsite diversions at the Yallourn Mine are also underway to allow up to 4.5 gigalitres of flood water per day. This is being designed to provide extra protection for the MRD to enable repairs before the diversion licences expire in June next year. Geotechnical investigations also identified additional longer-term measures to help guard against future flooding, and maintain the structural integrity of the Yallourn Mine and surrounding areas. The works have gained state government approvals, and were overseen by the Environment Protection Authority, which included monitoring water quality in the Morwell and Latrobe Rivers.

Pedestrians will be provided with a free shuttle bus to cross the train tracks in Traralgon while the new overpass is being built from Friday, August 5. Coaches will be replacing trains along the Gippsland line until August 7, with level crossing removals taking place. Major revamps are underway at the Morwell, Traralgon, Longwarry and Bunyip stations, with major construction to be completed later this year.

Deputy Premier and Minister for Transport Infrastructure Jacinta Allan was in town last week checking out upgrades at Morwell. Ms Allan said these upgrades would allow for more frequent and reliable services in Gippsland. She said upgrades at Pakenham, and a new station at Pakenham East, would include a dedicated V/Line track to help remove bottlenecks and move Gippsland trains through to Melbourne. “We are putting in a new signalling system on the Gippsland line because of the big challenges historically with service delivery,” Ms Allan said. “The Gippsland line has more challenges with

service delivery to do with signalling than any other regional passenger line.” A waiting room on the new second platform at Morwell is taking shape, while crews have also started signal cabling route works in the car park. Traralgon Station is also getting a new second platform, and works to start building an accessible overpass will start in the next few weeks. The new overpass will be fully accessible with four lifts, with a bright interior and full cover. The upgraded Traralgon station will feature a relocated bus interchange with more seating and shelter.

“Our significant investment in road and rail upgrades across eastern Victoria will improve safety and reliability for the booming communities for years to come,” Ms Allan said. “Through major projects including the Gippsland Line Upgrade and Princes Highway East Upgrade, we’re better connecting locals and making it easier than ever for visitors to enjoy everything eastern Victoria has to offer.” Temporary coach replacement timetables for Gippsland Line services will be available at vline. com.au.

New magistrates have been appointed by state government THE state government announced the appointment of five new magistrates this week. Attorney-General Jaclyn Symes congratulated Lucia Raponi, Helen Spowart, David Langton, Brett Sonnet and Gregory Thomas on their appointments, which will assist in reducing the court backlog. Magistrate Raponi has been a barrister at the Victorian Bar since 1994, and served as in-house counsel for the then Department of Human Services from 2002 to 2006. Prior to joining the Bar, she worked as a legal officer at the Victorian Government Solicitor’s Office from 1989 to 1994. Magistrate Spowart was Senior Crown Prosecutor

at the Office of the Director of Public Prosecutions in the Northern Territory, and prior to that was special counsel for Victoria Police. Magistrate Spowart has been admitted to the Supreme Courts of Victoria, Northern Territory and New South Wales and the High Court of Australia and specialised in criminal law. Magistrate Langton, a barrister, was admitted to the Victorian Bar in 2005 and has extensive experience in family violence law, criminal law, sexual offences and fraud matters. He served as a prosecuting solicitor at the Office of Public Prosecutions from 2000 to 2001. Magistrate Sonnet, a barrister, was admitted to legal practice in 1991 and worked for the Office of

Public Prosecutions from 1998 to 2019, where he held a variety of roles including Associate Crown Prosecutor and Crown Prosecutor. Since 2019, Magistrate Sonnet has been at the Victorian Bar practising in criminal law. Magistrate Thomas was principal solicitor at Greg Thomas Barrister and Solicitors since 2007. Prior to this, he was a partner and solicitor advocate at Dowling McGregor Thomas from 2003 to 2007 and held several roles at Victorian Legal Aid from 1992 to 2003 as a duty lawyer, in-house counsel and also served a in the role of management at the criminal law division. Magistrate Raponi will serve in the Children’s

Court, while Magistrates Spowart, Langton, Sonnet and Thomas will serve in the Magistrates’ Court. Attorney-General Jaclyn Symes welcomed the new magistrates. “I’m excited to welcome five new, distinguished and deserving lawyers as magistrates to the Victorian judicial system, who bring with them extensive experience,” she said. “Having such a variety of skills on the bench is an important part of our work to make justice fairer for and more accessible to Victorians.” “We are continuing to support our courts to catch up follow the disruptions caused by the global pandemic.”

Climate plan is good for Gippsland: Bath

would produce green hydrogen from renewables as well as including coal-to-hydrogen with carbon capture. The new Coalition energy policies included transmission upgrades in western Victoria, and a taskforce to fix the state’s power grid. There would also be a Victorian gas supply guarantee on any new on-shore gas projects, with right-of-veto agreements for landholders. “Gippsland is the best place as any to lead these changes. I don’t see why the Latrobe Valley couldn’t end up being a manufacturer for renewables components,” Ms Bath said. “Developing hydrogen in the Latrobe Valley is an important component towards a transition, but it’s not the only one.” Deputy Premier Jacinta Allan took the Coalition’s announcement with a grain of salt, stating the Liberal Nationals had “blocked and knocked” the government’s climate policies for the past seven years. “This recent conversion we’ve seen simply can’t be believed by a group of people who have opposed pretty much everything we’ve done to support transition to lower emissions, invest in renewables and invest in jobs in the sector,” Ms Allan told The Express. “This has pretty much been opposed every step of the way. It’s pretty hard to believe this latest conversion isn’t it?”

By MICHELLE SLATER

GIPPSLAND should be a front-runner in lowering emissions, according to Nationals Member for Eastern Victoria Melina Bath, as the state’s Coalition revealed new climate policies last week. The Liberal Nationals would legislate to halve the state’s emissions by 2030 if the Coalition wins the November election, with a view to net zero emissions by 2050. The Andrews Labor government has a 50 per cent emissions reduction target by 2030, but its interim target has not been legislated. The federal Labor Government has a target of 43 per cent by 2030. Ms Bath said the state government had the levers to pull to open up investment opportunities towards supporting the Latrobe Valley’s transition from coal. “If we stand still we will not evolve. I do think people want more climate action, we saw this in the response to the federal election,” Ms Bath said. “We are not going to drive industry out. We need someone running in front with new technology to hand over the baton to make sure the change is smooth. “What we can’t afford is for homes, industry and business to not afford to be able to keep the lights on or the wheels turning.” Ms Bath said the key priority was to ensure there was affordable, reliable and dispatchable energy in place to replace coal, as the Latrobe Valley’s thermal plants closed. She pointed to the Coalition’s $1 billion clean hydrogen strategy, which if they were elected,

Planning: Member for Gippsland South Danny O’Brien says The Nationals energy policy will provide great opportunities for the region.

$$!

NATIONALS Member for Gippsland South, Danny O’Brien has welcomed the latest energy and climate change policies released by The Nationals and Liberals, saying they will give huge opportunities for jobs and economic development in Gippsland. Mr O’Brien said the establishment of a $1 billion Victorian Hydrogen Strategy to support research, development and adoption of hydrogen technologies offers great opportunities for Gippsland industry. “We have already seen the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC) project at Loy Yang conduct a successful trial and open up the prospect of a commercial industry supplying hydrogen to Japan from our brown coal,” he said. “Utilising the proposed CarbonNet project at Golden Beach, this could provide clean fuel for the future and help Gippsland further develop its hydrogen energy capabilities - both green and blue - including the skills, technology and infrastructure needed for this emerging industry. “With offshore wind and onshore solar developments in train there is great opportunity for Gippsland to transition from the coal and natural gas powerhouse that it currently is to the energy supply of the future. “Equally, our policy is about providing certainty for our existing industries. “We are not in the business of shutting down our baseload reliable, coal generators, and our policy sends a signal to the market of consistency and clarity. “The Nationals are committed to supporting workers and communities in the coal, oil and gas industries which will play a role in our energy needs for some time to come.

Open for business: Regional Development Minsiter Harriet Shing and Latrobe City mayor Kellie O’Callaghan turn the sod at the Gippsland Logistics Precinct last week. photograph michelle slater

Work underway at Logistics Precinct By MICHELLE SLATER

CONSTRUCTION has started on a parcel of land in Morwell to attract new businesses and industries to the Latrobe Valley, as part of the Gippsland Logistics Precinct. The 30-hectare precinct on Enterprise Drive is being developed with utilities such as drainage, roads and power to provide serviced industrial land to lure new business to Morwell. The precinct will allow for easy access for trucks and transport, situated close to the freeway and tucked-in behind the train line, and when fully operational will create up to 500 jobs.

Latrobe City Council has begun taking expressions of interest for businesses to set up at the site, which could include industries in advanced manufacturing or food and fibre. Businesses are being encouraged to apply for grant funding under a $30 million state government Regional Jobs and Infrastructure Fund. The fund had previously allowed for food service distributor BidFood to expand to a site across the road, providing 50 extra jobs in Morwell. Regional Development Minister Harriet Shing was at the logistics precinct, turning the sod on the new digs last week, encouraging businesses to get on board.

“This is a strategic opportunity for businesses across industries to make sure they have the right infrastructure to thrive and access investment opportunities,” Ms Shing said. “Supply and logistics planning is a key part of making sure our region has good and prosperous opportunities across a range of industries.” The site is being developed in three stages in conjunction with local, state and commonwealth funding, with $5 million in state government support already provided to help begin stage one. Latrobe City Council welcomed the opportunity for further investment in the region, with works progressing at the site.

Latrobe City mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said the precinct would build on the Valley’s skilled workforce, and reduce prohibitive establishment costs for businesses to set up on greenfield sites. “The conversations we’ve had with the community are they are open for new developments, but they want it in appropriate precincts in the right place and complementary to the workforce,” Cr O’Callaghan said. “Businesses are telling us they want to move to the regions, they want the opportunities, but they want the infrastructure in place so they can access markets and set up their businesses.”

Trafalgar newsagent lands Division One winner A TRAFALGAR woman’s decision to switch-up her favourite lottery numbers has paid off after she landed a $530,000 TattsLotto win last month. The West Gippsland resident held one of the 10 Division One winning entries in TattsLotto draw 4277 drawn Saturday, July 16 2022 and took home a total prize of $537,814.32. In addition to the Trafalgar woman, 10 Moe lottery players also scored a Division One prize in the same TattsLotto draw with their long-running store syndicate. “Wow, I’m still trying to process it all in my head!” the Trafalgar winner laughed when an

official from The Lott confirmed the life-enhancing prize. “I was in Melbourne and I checked my TattsLotto ticket at one of the newsagencies while I was there. “The team member who scanned my ticket couldn’t quite figure out why it was telling me to go to The Lott head office, and neither could I! “I decided to go back to Trafalgar Newsagency where I’d initially purchased the ticket and check the ticket there. That’s when they told me I was the Division One winner they were looking for! “I was so excited. It’s still sinking in!” When asked how she would enjoy her newfound

Welcome aboard: Local industry specialists Brad Platschinda and Nick Scammell have joined The Personnel Group. photograph supplied

All aboard: Night trains are set to return to Walhalla Goldfields Railway next month.

Dynamic duo appointed Night trains are back LOCAL industry specialists Brad Platschinda and Nick Scammell have joined The Personnel Group to support Gippsland jobseekers into work. The Personnel Group will deliver Workforce Australia’s Employability Skills Training (Block 2) across Bairnsdale, Traralgon and Warragul. Employability Skills Training (EST) gives jobseekers using the Digital Online Servicing platform the ability to meet their requirements by undertaking an intensive 75-hour training course over three consecutive weeks. A key feature of Employability Skills Training is the constant information flow on what’s happening in the local employment market, and how jobseekers can tailor a resume and interview to gain employment. In addition, jobseekers may undertake a micro-credential in an area of interest to meet local employer needs. The Personnel Group is a not-for-profit

organisation supporting jobseekers to gain and maintain skills and employment. It has 36 years’ experience developing people’s employment potential and establishing employer networks to help identify employment opportunities. “Both Brad and Nick have an in-depth knowledge of what’s happening in the Gippsland region,” The Personnel Group chief executive John Gibbons said. “It is so important that local people, with local knowledge, support jobseekers. “As a new service to Gippsland, we have deliberately sought team members who are locals and know how the area works and what employers are really looking for.” EST is free to jobseekers using the Digital online platform; however, any jobseeker can access the course with their Provider paying the required fee.

AFTER a two year break, the volunteer team at Walhalla Goldfields Railway has announced they will be running the popular winter night trains every Saturday in August. The railway was unable to operate the night trains for the past two years due to COVID lockdowns. “We’ve been running night trains for many years and have always received great feedback from our passengers,” Walhalla Goldfields Railway president and driver Phillip Milbourne said. “It’s a pretty exhilarating feeling, riding the train in the dark with the carriages and bush lit up. “It takes a lot of work to run the trains at night and we have a really passionate team of volunteers who are making this happen, and we couldn’t be more grateful.” Trains will commence the journey at Walhalla Station at 6pm and 8pm every Saturday night throughout August. The hour-long trip will take passengers through

the stunning Stringers Gorge, where you may be able to spot some of the local wildlife, and over the iconic trestle bridges, to stop briefly at Thomson Station for a hot chocolate around the fire before returning to Walhalla. Passengers are reminded to dress warmly and bring your beanies as the carriages are open on the sides. Rugs and hot water bottles will be available for use on the night. The Goods Shed Café will be open each evening while the trains are operating for passengers’ convenience, where you can purchase hot food and drinks. Bookings are essential, and can be made online at www.walhallarail.com.au/events-page or enquiries to 0491 741 822. If you would like to volunteer with the Walhalla Goldfields Railway, there are many ways you can help, email office@walhallarail.com.au

University partners with key locals

GIPPSLANDERS wanting to solve real-world problems in their local community can study with the support of major research scholarships at Federation University. The university has partnered with key local industries to co-design PhD and Masters projects that help tackle the region’s transition to new industries and technologies. Successful applicants for the four projects will each receive a tax-free stipend scholarship of $30,000 per year, and have the opportunity to participate in industry-based internships, with support from both industry and leading academics in Federation’s Future Regions Research Centre.

The projects include: Looking at how the community can be involved in a thriving renewable energy sector (PhD); Exploring the potential of by-products from a fish farm to be used as living fertiliser (Masters by Research); working with traditional owner groups to explore effective, respectful and culturally appropriate ways to connect traditional knowledge holders with land management practitioners (PhD); and improving the quality of wood pellets by incorporating renewable by-products (Masters by Research). The PhD and Masters candidates will be affiliated with Federation University’s Gippsland Campus at

Churchill and the new Morwell Innovation Centre. Federation University Dean of Graduate Studies, Professor Wendy Wright, said the scholarships offered an exciting opportunity to locals. “As Gippsland’s university, we have a key role to play in the region’s economic transition, so we are partnering with industry to help find real-world solutions to local challenges,” she said. “These research projects will contribute new knowledge to these sectors and help candidates to develop their research skills while gaining industry experience. “The scholarships will help ease the financial

burden of study, and support students to stay close to family, friends and their communities.” The scholarships are funded with support from the federal government’s Destination Australia program, which supports students to study and live in regional Australia. Applications close Sunday, August 14 2022.

Valley songstress to play alongside Cebrano

By MICHELLE SLATER

A FORMER Latrobe Valley vocalist with a pedigree steeped in music, is returning to Gippsland to sing with Oz music royalty next month. Amy Calabro will be supporting signing legend Kate Cebrano at two sold-out sessions at the Bundy Hall, off the back of two live gigs performing her newly released debut EP. The now Melbourne-based muso grew up in the Valley in a music oriented family, which includes her uncle, famed Morwell guitar teacher Tony Calabro. “I’m the only one in the family who is musical and doesn’t play the guitar. Dad tried to teach me when I was young, but I just wanted to sing,” Ms Calabro said. “I love being able to make a song my own and interpret it in my own way, this is something I began from a young age.” Ms Calabro began performing as a kid in school eisteddfods, before progressing to singing in duos with her uncle’s guitar students when she learned the craft of song writing. The Adele and Beatles fan said singing had given her the confidence to take risks and tell

her life experiences through song. “I feel like I come alive when performing and my confidence comes out, I enjoy this more than any other avenue in my life,” she said. “I’m excited and nervous, because it’s one thing to perform someone else’s song that’s already accepted and another to perform a song so personal to me.” Ms Calabro is releasing a six-track EP ‘Exposed’ that was recorded at Lee Bradshaw’s Burwood studio, along with accompanying piano and strings. She will be performing two gigs at the studio this week with the Invictus Quartet and Bradshaw on keys, with one show already sold-out and the other at near capacity. But she said playing opening for Kate Cebrano was a “pinch myself moment” when the Bundy Hall hand-picked her as a support act. “Kate is incredibly inspiring and has an incredibly successful career, I’m looking to her as a mentor as she has a wealth of knowledge,” Ms Calabro said. “I’ve been working towards something like this for the past 10 years, I’m so proud I’m finally doing it.”

Advice changes as COVID infections surge

By TOM PARRY

VICTORIAN school students and staff are being encouraged to wear face masks, following a change in advice by the state government. The updated Schools Operation Guide from the Department of Education, made public on Monday, July 18, recommends that students over eight-years-old wear a mask “It is strongly recommended by the Department of Health that face masks are worn in indoor settings, with face masks mandatory for those aged eight and over who are household contacts and attending school,” the guide reads. “This is because the wearing of masks is effective

in reducing the transmission of COVID-19.” The guide goes on to say that it is “the Department’s expectation that, through to the end of winter, students aged eight and over and all staff will wear masks when in class…” and that schools are not required to sanction students or staff for non-compliance. The updated advice comes amid a surging number of COVID-19 cases in Victoria, with authorities fearing a third Omicron wave of infections. As of 9.30am Monday, there are 71,081 known active cases across the state, 855 of whom are in hospital. Since June, there has been a 99 per cent increase

in Victorians hospitalised with coronavirus, and a 47 per cent increase in healthcare staff having to isolate. In light of these figures, Victoria’s Acting Chief Health Officer, Ben Cowie, is encouraging businesses to let their employees work remotely. This view was echoed by his federal counterpart, Professor Paul Kelly, in a statement released last Tuesday. “The Australian Health Protection Principal Committee (AHPPC) has reiterated its advice on reinfection periods, testing and isolation, mask wearing, vaccine boosters and treatments and called on employers to allow work from home if feasible,” the statement read.

“Employers should review their occupational health and safety risks and mitigations, and their business continuity plans. “They should consider the feasibility of some employees working from home, wearing masks in the workplace and support employees to take leave when sick. “I also encourage everyone to follow the recent advice of the AHPPC and wear masks when outside the home in crowded, indoor environments, including on public transport. “This is important to protect yourself and others.”

Walking club is a welcoming club

All welcome: The Ben Cruachan Walking Club invites new members to join. ON June 27 1965, a group of like-minded, bushwalking field naturalists, predominantly from Heyfield, Maffra and Sale, hiked to the summit of Ben Cruachan, an 836-metre mountain to the northwest of Maffra. There, the Ben Cruachan Walking Club was founded. Today, it has grown to a club of more than 130 members, mainly from central and East Gippsland. The club has a solid walk schedule, with trips ranging from a pleasing stroll through the bush to something more unique or intense. Generally, walks are on each weekend, thanks to the dedication and efforts of the experienced volunteer leaders. Blue Pools, on Freestone Creek, and Track 96 to Peregrine Lookout, was the most recent walk

LIFT ONSUIDTE I

undertaken, with the group meeting at Blue Pools, outside Briagalong. With the snow-capped ranges as a backdrop to the drive in, it was a cool morning, with the promise of ideal walking conditions. The well-defined track, over some 8 kilometres, meandered through a range of landscapes and ecosystems, from moist gullies to wooded ridges of Stringbark, Ironbark and Red Box. Peregrine Falcons are known to be in the area around September. Wildflowers and fungus caught the eye of the walkers, who were able to share their knowledge about what was found. However, well before Europeans, the area was inhabited by the Briakulung, a tribe of the Gunai. Reminders of their time in the area include

grinding grooves and the scar trees, which are still evident to those with a keen eye. Gold was discovered in the mid 1860’s, and though not highly profitable, continued to be worked into the 20th century. The Freestone Creek, Lees Creek and Granite Creek areas were the location of a number of alluvial gold mines. A disused mine shaft sits alongside the track near Peregrine lookout. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, a track existed to service the needs of the miners, connecting Briagolong and Gladstone Creek (also an alluvial field) to the gold fields at Lees Creek and Granite Creek. This track was marked on a government map dated 1909 as ‘Track 96’.

With the circuit complete upon finishing up at Blue Pools, the second water crossing of the day, the group was delighted with the walk and what they found. A consensus was that such a venture should be followed up by a cuppa. Walkers then drove to a nearby café for a warm drink and more sharing of tales, tall and true. The Ben Crauchan Walking Club website has a wealth of information, including the all-important Walks Calendar. The Snow Shoe Shuffle to Mt St Gwinear is another yearly highlight, and many are looking forward to this, on Saturday, August 6. The club encourages those who are considering joining to come along as a guest, with a $5 fee, which covers associated costs.

Helping kids get active THE state government is helping more kids get active and fostering the talents of Victoria’s future sports stars, with more support for schools to offer exciting sports programs and encourage physical activity. Minister for Education Natalie Hutchins and AFLW Carlton star Darcy Vescio visited Ardeer South Primary School last week, one of 96 schools to receive an Active Schools grant this year. The grants are part of the state government’s $45.4 million initiative to give Victorian kids the skills, confidence and motivation to be active for life. Ms Hutchins said the grants would provide a huge boost to the lives of young people. “Regular physical activity makes a huge difference to young people’s mental and physical health as well as their educational outcomes - that’s why we’re investing in Active Schools to give every student the opportunity to find an activity they love.” “We’re thrilled to celebrate Active Schools funding recipients - I want to congratulate all the successful schools for their work to keep young Victorians active, fit and healthy.” The grant has transformed Ardeer South Primary School into a hive of football activity, using its grant to completely resurface the school oval and install new goal posts so kids can get into footy during and after school, and allowing the school to compete in interschool AFL competitions. The school has also partnered with the Western

Creative: Prep student, Charlotte, making her rainbow serpent.

Bulldogs Friendly Schools program, and built a strong link with the Sunshine Heights Football Club, helping to flood the club’s junior ranks with new players. The state government also announced more than $641,000 for new ‘innovative behaviour’ trials in some Victorian government schools, which will test the most effective ways to encourage adolescents to do more physical activity and maintain healthy habits for life. Regional Arts Victoria is one of four organisations to successfully secure a grant across three key areas - quality school sport, active travel, and active recreation - to help address declining physical activity rates among secondary school students through their Circus Active program. Other sporting and community organisations who will be supported to do this research include Victorian YMCA Community Programming (Quality School Sport), Cancer Council Victoria (Active Travel) and GippSport Inc (Active Recreation). As part of the Active Schools initiative, the state government earlier this year launched Get Your Move On, a campaign encouraging young people aged five to 18 years to get 15 minutes of physical activity, four times a day. The Victorian Budget 2022/23 invested more than $20.8 million to boost the Active Schools program and promote long-term health and wellbeing in generations of young Victorians to come.

HOROSCOPES

news

news@lvexpress.com.au

by Joanne Madeline Moore July 25 - July 31, 2022

Aries Have you been waiting in the wings or sulking on the sidelines, Rams? Remember that expansive Jupiter is transiting through your sign (which only happens every 12 years). So spring into action – wake up, explore, experiment, take a calculated risk and make some noise! Be inspired by fiery birthday actress Helen Mirren (who was born on July 26, 1945): “If you want to go make your mark in the world, you’ve got to go out and do it. Don’t be shy, be adventurous.” Taurus This week the stars favour home

and hearth, as the New Moon and Mercury highlight your domestic zone. It’s a good time to clean and declutter your living space or tackle an overdue DIY project. Venus (your power planet) also links up with Jupiter, so Bulls can expect a busy and bamboozling time. Prepare for some very short timelines. You don’t work well when other people try to hurry you, so have the confidence to cruise at your own preferred pace.

GGemini Family relationships and close friendships look complicated, as loved ones debate a wide range of controversial topics. If you have a problem that’s bothering you, don’t over-think things. Instead, let your intuition be your guide. Wisdom for the week is from birthday great, psychiatrist Carl Jung (who was born on July 26, 1875): “Your vision will become clear only when you can look into your own heart. Who looks outside, dreams; who looks inside, awakens.” Cancer You’ve been talking about saving

for something big (like a car, holiday, home deposit or renovations) for a while. With the New Moon in your finance zone (and impulsive Jupiter, Mars and Uranus aspects), resist the urge to be extravagant with cash and careless with credit. In an uncertain economic climate, be a canny Crab who is cautious with money. Plus,, do an inventoryy on your inner wealth,, as you nurture your self-esteem and consolidate your core values.

Leo With the Sun, New Moon and Mercury

charging through your sign, you’ll go to extremes this week as the planets press your ‘Let’s overdo everything’ button. So your motto for the moment is from birthday great Mick Jagger (who has four planets in Leo): “Anything worth doing is worth overdoing.” But resist the temptation to be a right royal bossy-boots, especially when you don’t get your way. Rather than being pushy, try being charmingly persuasive instead!

Virgo g Mercury (your patron planet) forms

difficcult aspects with Mars, Uranus and Saturn, so you’ll feel argumentative, restless and/or stressed. The New Moon and Mercury light up your solitude zone, so you’ll also feel like being on your own. Privacy and self-reflection are paramount, and activities like meditation, contemplation and yoga are recommended. Your mantra comes from birthday great Kate Bush: “There’s an awful lot you learn about yourself when you’re alone.”

Libra The fiery New Moon reignites a special

hope, dream or wish that’s been languishing on the sidelines. Plus, the lively Venus-Jupiter link turbo charges creativity and pushes you to be more proactive. If you are stuck in a professional slump or a relationship rut, don’t dwell on the negatives. It’s time to innovate and re-calibrate. Be inspired by actress (and fellow Libran) Kate Winslet: “The good and bad things are what form us as people. Change makes us grow.”

Scorpio This week looks rather shambolic, as the Venus/Jupiter square disrupts your daily routine and Saturn stymies domestic harmony. And your patience will wear thin with stressed work colleagues, frustrating family members, unpredictable friends or annoying acquaintances. For some Scorpios, a rushed romance could see you jump from the frying pan straight into the fire! So slow down, calm down and focus on the journey rather than the destination.

Sagittarius g There’s a Venus/Jupiter squaare, so you’re keen to communicate and exaggerate. However, if you say or do the first thing on your mind (especially involving friends or finances), you could find yourself regretting your haste. With the Sun, New Moon and Mercury activating your adventure zone, you’re keen to head off on an overseas trip, an interstate interlude or a weekend getaway. But be careful your spontaneous spirit doesn’t land you in unexpected trouble!

Capricorn p The New Moon stimulates your intriggue zone, so no secret is safe as you uncover clues and pick up on cues that other people miss. Be careful what you unearth because you could stir up problems from your own less-than-perfect past. Lust and loot also loom large, as you work through issues involving trust, intimacy, shared possessions or joint finances. The weekend looks frustrating when Mercury and Saturn slow communication,, frustrate plans and styymie progress.

Aquarius q This week you’ll be reliably unppredictable and consistently inconsistent! Love, loyalty, cooperation and compromise are the New Moon buzzwords, as one half of you wants to snuggle up close with someone special, while the other half longs to be footloose, fancy-free and spontaneously solo. Try to find the sweet spot between cosy companionship and invigorating independence. But resist the urge to be an Aquarian provocateur who is deliberately controversial. Pisces New Moon week is the ideal time

to ditch bad daily habits and start afresh. Work, health, fitness and food choices are the main areas where you need to make some long-overdue changes and adjustments – the sooner the better. Try to release pent-up Piscean frustrations via a chat with a close confidante or a trusted family member. Spending some quality time with your favourite four-legged friend (in the great outdoors) will also help to lift your spirits.

Local knowledge: Dr Kevin Tolhurst AM says a local approach is needed to make bushfire management successful. file photograph

We need to go ‘local’ to fight fires: expert By PHILIP HOPKINS

ANALYSING the forest through more local natural fire catchment units is a key means to make the landmark federal-state national bushfire management strategy successful, according to one of the nation’s leading bushfire experts. Dr Kevin Tolhurst AM, Associated Professor of Fire Ecology and Management at Melbourne University, said such fire landscape units were not administrative areas on a map, but smaller, natural units for planning, managing and reporting on the policy. These fire catchments may have some naturally lower fire frequency due to a gully, ridgetop, or rocky outcrop. “Fire tends to stay within those catchments, although not always,” he said, citing specific areas in the Highlands, Glenmaggie and Avon in Central and West Gippsland within Victoria. Analysing these units would be a way to gauge the progress of the bushfire strategy. Dr Tolhurst was presenting a paper ‘Turning the National Bushfire Management Policy Statement into Reality’ at a recent three-day conference in Melbourne, where he spoke on ‘Fire and Climate’. The conference was presented by the International Association of Wildland Fire (IAWF) in partnership with Natural Hazards Research Australia, which is building on the work of its predecessor Cooperative Research Centres, the Bushfire CRC and the Bushfire and Natural Hazards CRC. Dr Tolhurst said the statement for national bushfire management had been agreed to by the Council of Australian Governments (COAG) in 2014. It was comprehensive and included a vision, principles, four strategic objectives and 14 national goals – “a national consistent vision of what fire management should look like”. However, fire management was dominated by alternate paths based on politics and science. “Politics has dominated the fire world for several decades and is based on perceptions and beliefs,” he said. Being popular and understood was important, as was being accepted by the public through royal commissions, public inquiries, government reviews and the media. “But the political approach has major problems with long-term vision and solutions to long term issues.” In contrast, Dr Tolhurst said the approach of

science was based on evidence, known assumptions, with the process repeatable and objective. “You can have both, but policy needs to be science driven” and spelt out to politicians, the public and media. “The science process shows what we know of the world. It is not based on thoughts and opinions, which does dominate some science,” he said. Some peer-reviewed papers in scientific literature did not “cut the mustard” and were “very poor from a scientific point of view”. Dr Tolhurst said science-based management was needed to change beliefs – “to make sure we have a social licence so that we are trusted, and can justify to ourselves what we are doing, garner necessary support in terms of dollars and people to implement the management strategy”. “We also need to progressively increase the skills and the knowledge of outcomes we are trying to achieve. We need clear direction.” This included key performance indicators (KPIs) measured on an annual basis and “that you can report on publicly”. Dr Tolhurst said impediments to a successful policy included a social and political focus on response and recovery, not prevention, preparedness and fire regime management. “It’s like trying to improve public health by buying more ambulances,” he said. Individuals, communities and agencies all had a specific role to play in fire management. “However, the role of professional groups, such as IAWF and Forestry Australia, is to set the professional standards and communicate them to governments and the public,” he said. Dr Tolhurst said our scientific knowledge always exceeded the level of practice. “It is not more research that is needed, but greater efforts to use the knowledge we have,” he said. Research did not provide all knowledge but could deliver valuable insights and guides to future directions. “Adaptive management, properly used, uses a scientific approach (evidence-based) to management in a way that we ‘learn by doing’ to continually improve management outcome.” Dr Tolhurst said the implementation of policy needed to be done incrementally but comprehensively. “It needs to be based on good science and be defendable. Achieving the vision requires the national government, states and territories to work together.”

SOUTH EAST REGIONAL BUILDING AWARDS 2022

Congratulations Pro Mara BEST RENOVATION/ADDITION $300,000-$500,000 PRO Mara Builders took out the Best Renovation/ Addition $300,000-$500,000 section. Judges at the MBAV Awards were impressed with Paul O’Mara’s work on a Traralgon property, which has been given a modern, sophisticated revamp that doesn’t compromise the late-1800s aesthetics of the exterior. Paul O’Mara, the man behind the family-run business Pro Mara Builders, admitted it was “really challenging” to integrate the new with the old, but is nonetheless pleased with the end result, and the win. His advice to fellow home-builders is to strive for quality, and have a great relationship with your clients, noting that some of his clients have gone on to become “really close” friends. “That’s something that we try and do - keep the client happy, do high-quality work and leave with a friendship at the end where everybody’s happy with the product and the build,” Paul O’Mara said. Pro Mara Builders was established by Paul O’Mara in 2016, and previously won at the MBAV South East Awards in 2019.

High-quality finishes have been used cleverly throughout to give the home a high-end feel. The result is a beautifully presented, four-bedroom home with a large alfresco area leading off the main living space. A simple colour palette was used to add to the facade’s modern aesthetic, which continued throughout the home in the cabinetry and stone benchtops. Built at the end of a cul-de-sac with a narrower frontage, plans were manipulated to achieve a roller door at the rear of the garage.

SOUTH EA AST REGIONAL BUILDING AWARDS 2022

Gippsland,” general manager Brad Chugg said. The family-owned and operated business boasts four decades of experience building custom homes, and knows what it takes to stand-out from the competition. “You could drive around new estates or the town – mainly Warragul, where we build most of our houses – and people can pretty much spot our

houses as they drive along the street,” Brad Chugg said. “It sits taller, sits prouder, as is more unique than every other house that gets built.” While the team relishes their each and every accolade, for Brad Chugg, the most rewarding aspect remains the happy clients at the end of the whole process.

HARRY POTTER: HOGWARTS TOURNAMENT OF HOUS SES 7Flix, Sunday, 6pm

WILDLIFE RESCUE AUSTRALIA 10, Saturday, 6.30pm

You never know what to expect in this heartwarming series. Featuring Dr Bree Talbot (pictured) and her trusty mobile vet hospital, the bubbly medico travels around the beautiful surrounds of Byron Bay and beyond to rescue native wildlife. Not only is it a celebration of nature and its diverse and colourful inhabitants, it’s an educational adventure into all the scrapes that creatures can get caught up in. This week, Willow the owlet-nightjar needs a gentle checkup after falling out of its nest. Bree and the team are also concerned about the gas in Sandy the eastern grey kangaroo joey’s stomach. Tune in for an up-close look at some of Australia’s cutest creatures.

The timing of this screening is a little behind, but Harry Potter fanss won’t mind. If they haven’t already watched this four-part series on repeeat – which niversary concludes tonight – they’re in for a treat. Celebrating the 20th ann of the movies, fans of the franchise compete to answer trivia quesstions about the meticulously detailed world. Dame Helen Mirren (picturred) hosts the entertaining spectacle in her first role as a quiz host. The Oscar winner plays her part with aplomb, admitting this role “was a great way to o be able to participate in the whole extraordinary phenomena that is Harry Po otter.” JUST FOR LAUGHS AU USTRALIA 10, Monday, 9.30pm

David Wenham wraps p up p his stellar turn as interviewer in this enlightening series in which he chats with well-known Australian figures as they take a trip down memory lane, propelled by the riches of the ABC archives. Wenham concludes with a flourish tonight as he sits for a relaxed conversation with former prime minister John Howard. p The surprising and nostalgic look back includes footage of Howard campaigning for MP Tom Hughes in Sydney’s Campsie during the 1966 Federal Election, and his first day in parliament in 1974. In the forthcoming chat, Howard o a d reflects e ec on o thee ups p and downs of his political career, from Port Arthur, to tax and his cherished morning walk.

Stand-up comedy is a rariity on free-to-air and shows that celebrate Australian comedians aree even more few and far between. So iit’s with a pplause rambunctious round of ap that this local series returns for its eighth season tonigght. This year, the live recording of the show moved from the Sydney History repeating: Opera House to Melbourne’s Malthouse Theatre, giving rise to Former PM John some extra excitement from the crowd. The much-loved Judith Howard takes a walk Lucy (pictured) kicks off the laughs along with Logie Awarddown memory lane winner and Celebrity MasterChef standout Dilruk Jayasinha and for The ABC Of. storytelling songstress Michelle Brasier.

Warning from EnergySafe Vic

Farmers market in Yinnar

Fresh: Penelope Swales is passionate about locally grown food. THE high cost of fresh fruit and vegetables has often been in the news this year. But with much lower overheads for transport and storage, and without the difficult growing conditions being experienced in other states, prices for fresh produce from local Victorian farmers markets are currently cheaper than at the supermarket. Yinnar South residents Rosemary Abetz-Rouse and Skye de Hommel want to showcase the produce grown in the local district with a Yinnar Farmers Market on April 1 2023. “Yinnar’s closest farmers markets are in Traralgon (a 54 kilometre round trip) or Mirboo North (a 40km round trip)”, Rosemary said. “Also, the cost of a stall in the bigger farmers markets can be prohibitive. We want to offer smaller producers the opportunity to reach a local market without a big fee”. Skye de Hommel said she has been wishing for ages that there was a quality fresh produce market option closer to home.

Having spearheaded the popular Yinnar Food Truck Festival, she is familiar with the paperwork involved in holding a large event. “We hope it will be successful and we can convince all the stakeholders to support something more regular”, she said. Penelope ‘Pea’ Swales of Piggery Road Permaculture in Boolarra, is passionate about grow-it-local food. She said small-scale local food production was a far more resilient way to feed communities. “Right now, the whole country is feeling the impact of floods on the Lockyer Valley,” she said. “The broadacre farmers affected have lost millions and are facing enormous personal and financial stress. “It has been suggested to me that I could take the opportunity to put my prices up, but to me, that would defeat the purpose of what I am trying to do, which is demonstrate that local communities can feed themselves with fresh, local and in-season

produce. The Yinnar Farmers Market will be backed by a small grant from Food For All Latrobe Valley (FFALV), an initiative of the Latrobe Health Innovation Zone, “COVID-19 has highlighted the instability of the current food system, and we have seen more people interested in purchasing local produce”, FFALV coordinator Claire Tartaro said. “We are excited to support this community project, working to increase local access to fresh, nutritious food”. The Yinnar Farmers Market is looking for stallholders selling fruit and vegetables, meat, seafood, dairy, eggs, honey, plants, seeds, nuts, sausages, cheeses, olive oil, fruit juice, bread, jams, sauces, coffee, flowers, and biscuits. To find out more, email yinnarfarmersmarket@ gmail.com or visit the Yinnar Farmers Market Facebook page.

ENERGY Safe Victoria (ESV) is warning people not to use outdoor heating appliances to keep their homes warm through a particularly cold Victorian winter, following a carbon monoxide incident. Six people, including two children, were hospitalised with carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms in western Sydney on Tuesday. Reports suggested the victims had been trying to heat a granny flat by using a charcoal-fuelled barbecue. Carbon monoxide is a colourless and odourless gas. Carbon monoxide poisoning can result in serious health issues and even death. This incident serves as a timely reminder that outdoor gas appliances, such as patio heaters and gas or charcoal-based barbecues, should not be used indoors. These appliances require ventilation to allow the carbon monoxide to escape. In Victoria, the Coroners Court is currently investigating the death of an elderly woman who suffered carbon monoxide poisoning while sleeping in her van at Cohuna in the state’s north in late February. ESV recently provided a report that will form part of the Coronial brief of evidence. Victorians should always follow health and safety instructions with a gas appliance. In more severe cases, confusion, shortness of breath or chest pain can be symptoms and very high levels of carbon monoxide can be fatal. ESV Commissioner and Chairperson Marnie Williams urged people to take caution. “It is cold and people need to stay warm but never use outdoor gas appliances in your house or an enclosed area,” she said. “Carbon monoxide poisoning symptoms can present like the flu or COVID-19, but can very quickly become fatal.” ESV has been advising the community on the threat of carbon monoxide poisoning for more than a decade.

Race to seat of Morwell heating up

THERE is barely four months left until the Victorian state election, and soon we will be inundated with attention and promises from political parties. Why? Because Morwell happens to be one of the most marginal seats in the state. Russell Northe won by a 1.8 per cent margin last time, meaning just 738 votes needed to switch to change the result. Now the redistribution which includes Moe in the seat means that, according to the VEC, Labor have a notional 1.1 per cent advantage over Mr Northe. Hopefully this means whoever wins government will finally provide our region with some much-needed attention and improvements to infrastructure and services. Whoever wins, I also hope we have good candidates who offer detailed and honest policies to voters to judge. Personally, I also hope we have some more diverse candidates instead of the traditional choice between dopey local footballers or trade union officials. The Nationals were first out of the block with the pre-selection of Martin Cameron, whose claim to fame is playing football. In this newspaper (‘Cameron enters a new field of play’, July 5), Mr Cameron expresses the view that his playing of football means he’s qualified to be a parliamentarian. He will need to do better than that, and I would encourage him to focus on his small business background instead, which is more relevant and interesting.

The Express welcomes letters to the editor. All letters must carry the writer’s name, address and telephone numberr forr verification purposes. Preference willl be given to shorter letters emailedd to news@lvexpress.com.au or post it to Latrobe Valley Express, 21 George Strreet, Morwell 3840. The editor reserves the right to edit alll lettters either for length or legal reasonns, or omit letters. The views of the letter writers don’t necessarily reflect the vieews of the paper.

In the same article, Nationals MLC Melina Bath proclaims that Mr Cameron is “not a political appointee”. Ms Bath may have been a schoolteacher before entering politics, but I hope she was never in charge of teaching English. By definition, winning party endorsement to contest an election means the person is political. As dictionary.com states, the word ‘political’ means ‘of, relating to, or concerned with politics ... or with a political party’.

As Ms Bath is herself a serving politician, I’m not sure why she would think the word ‘political’ is a dirty word. She should improve her use of English and just be direct! Last week, Labor announced that they have preselected a female medical doctor. Dr Kate Maxfield is the daughter of Labor union officials, but clearly has a proper job outside the world of politics. Well done to Labor on the diversity front, but Dr Maxfield needs to remember that the closure of Moe Hospital happened about 30 years ago and she must campaign on current issues if she wants to be taken seriously. I hope all Valley residents will pay close attention to the election, and use their votes wisely. Good luck to all candidates! Marcia Davidson, Morwell

Thank you to kind bus drivers

WE are Colin and Margaret Armitage, from Maffra. We wish to express our grateful thanks to two bus drivers who assisted us greatly on Tuesday, July 12. We travelled from Traralgon to Southern Cross on that morning, to attend a medical appointment in the city. On arriving at the carpark in the street behind Traralgon Station sometime around 7.40am, we were advised that the pedestrian bridge was closed, due to work happening there. We waited for the shuttle bus, which took us

Loud noises: A fine issued to Hotel Traralgon generated plenty of discussion with The Express readership.

back around to the station where we boarded a city train. When we returned later that day - around 5.30pm or so - we caught the return shuttle bus (driven by the same driver who had been on driving duty all day). We discovered when leaving the bus that Colin had inadvertently left his small back pack containing his wallet, phone, car keys etc at a spot on the grass near the shelter in front of Traralgon Station. We advised the driver of the fact, and said we would have to return with him to the front of the station on his next run in the hope the back pack would still be there. This driver immediately spoke on his phone to a colleague - another bus driver - who collected the abandoned item as he passed it, placed it at a prearranged spot on his own route for our driver to collect. Our shuttle bus was now driven, with us aboard, to that place, from where our driver retrieved it for us, subsequently once more taking us to the back car park where our car was waiting. We are grateful indeed to those two drivers for helping us in that way. We do not know their names, but they may recognise themselves from the date and times in our note to you. Seeing these men willingly step outside their normal work at the end of a long day, to do this for us, refreshed our faith in human nature. Colin and Margaret Armitage, Maffra

as November state election looms Human rights

REGARDING Steve Mitchell’s letter in The Express from July 20, ‘It is about choice’, on abortion. It’s not “extremist rhetoric” to state that abortion takes the life of a human being. It’s fact. If you’re pregnant, you have a human life growing inside you. The whole point of an abortion is to stop that human life from continuing. The question is whether a mother has the right to take that life. Yes, a woman has a right to determine what happens to her own body. So does a man. But they don’t have the right to decide that their child’s life should be taken. For whatever reason. Steve writes that he is not aware of any law that allows control of one person’s body by another, apart from slavery. Yet this is precisely what abortion allows control of the baby’s body by the mother (or often by the father by coercion). Does he really believe that unborn children have no rights whatsoever? Like slaves? They live or die purely at the behest of their parents. A whole class of human beings without rights. Do they gain rights when they’re wanted, or planned? Or only when they’re born? Do they have any protection in their mother’s wombs? Or are they no one’s business until they’re born. Why do we care if a pregnant woman smokes or drinks, or drives without a seatbelt, or is beaten by her partner? The human rights of men and women, slaves and free, babies born and unborn, toddlers and elderly people, should all be equal. Women in crisis pregnancies should be supported and cared for, not fed the lie that their babies are the enemy and should be eliminated and no one will suffer. They say it takes a village to raise a child. It takes a village to protect them too. Janet Kingman, Morwell

Gratitude for Smith Family Winter Appeal

I AM writing to express my heartfelt appreciation to everyone in Victoria who supported The Smith Family’s 2022 Winter Appeal. At a time when Victorians continue to face COVID challenges and ongoing economic instability, we’ve been humbled by their tremendous generosity. This show of support could not have come at a more necessary time, with the fallout from COVID still impacting children’s education, particularly those experiencing poverty. We know that financial disadvantage creates barriers for learning, and our recent family survey found parents and carers continued to be worried about their children falling behind at school, during ongoing disruptions and the aftereffects of extended periods of home learning. The Smith Family’s vision is a world where every child has the opportunity to change their future - and our programs equip students with the knowledge, skills, and aspirations they need to unlock their potential. With the donations received, The Smith Family will provide extra learning and mentoring support to an additional 3879 Victorian children and young people during terms three and four. These include an out-of-school reading program and our after-school learning clubs. We know these evidence-based programs work

non-profit organisation and an incorporated body. With the future retirement of long-standing committee members, we are on the look-out for suitable people in our community to put their hands up to join us. We meet once a month on the second Wednesday at 5pm in the very comfortable meeting room at the Yinnar Hall. At the monthly meetings reports are tabled from the treasurer, the maintenance volunteers and the resident representatives. Meetings are usually only one hour in duration. Greenside Villas is a valuable asset to our town, and worth over $2 million. If the committee of management cannot be run by volunteers the facility could (but this is definitely not the plan) be handed over for social housing with no local management involvement, so it is important that the committee stays active. If you are looking for a way to give back to your local community please call our president Graeme O’Hara on 0427 849 158 for further information. Di Whitehead, vice president Y&DHD Inc

Putting building issues into perspective

Picture paints 1000 words: Taking a satirical look at mine rehabilitation. because we measure the progress of students to ensure they are benefitting. Parents, students and teachers tell us that our programs are helping children to be more confident and engaged at school, improve their learning outcomes, and become more aware of study and career opportunities post-school. In the last year, our programs reached around 180,000 children and young people nationally. And with more young Australians in need of support than ever before, we want to extend this reach to 250,000 in the next five years. But we can’t do this vital work alone, and that’s why community support is crucial. So, to everyone who generously contributed to our Appeal, I say a great big thank you. Anton Leschen, General Manager, The Smith Family Victoria

Music generates noise and discussion THE online comments about Hotel Traralgon fined for excessive noise printed in The Express on July 20, are worthy of further discussion about the problems from Ryan’s/Hotel Traralgon. Firstly, other nightclub venues in the same area of Traralgon (eg Star Bar on Grey St; Inferno & Arcadia etc on Kay St) are not creating a current noise problem because they have four-walls around their noise sources. Ryan’s have only produced regular excessive noise since October 2021, which was when they decided to establish a ‘disco’ in an outdoor tent. Without walls to contain their noise, Ryan’s need to be more careful than they have been to

not disturb the hundreds of residential properties in nearby streets. Secondly, Ryan’s hasn’t been fined for excess noise (at least not yet) but rather the 5/7/2022 fine issued by the EPA was for Ryan’s failing to respond to an EPA Information Gathering Notice. Seems like Ryan’s management might have an arrogant disregard for engaging with the lawful authority about their behaviour. If so, then Ryan’s woes about being fined result from them being wilfully uncooperative. Finally, I can only hope that some of the profits flowing to Ryan’s (from disco patrons paying $10 to huddle in a drafty tent) might be put to good use in preserving the Ostlers House heritage building. This important building is currently half-hidden behind the disco tent and is apparently suffering from callous neglect by its owner (Ryan’s). John Stewart, Traralgon

From the Yinnar and District Housing Development THE role of the committee of management of the Yinnar & District Housing Development Inc is to provide assessable and affordable housing for those in the community aged over 55 years. The committee is responsible for the management and upkeep of the 11 units that make up Greenside Villas at 9 Main Street Yinnar. We are not a fundraising committee and we never hold fundraising events. The committee is comprised of volunteers from the Yinnar and District community. There are no paid positions and elections are held annually for all positions. We are a

MUCH has been written in the media after several established building and construction companies have been liquidated this year due to rising material costs, supply chain delays, and labour shortages. This perfect storm is causing mounting pressure on our industry. The vast majority, if not all, of the state’s builders, are experiencing a challenge to their profitability. We are calling it a profitless boom. However, the number of building and construction insolvencies in 2022 must be put into perspective. While several high-profile builders have gone into liquidation this year, insolvencies are still relatively low compared to pre-COVID levels. The building and construction industry recorded 541 insolvencies in 2019. This dropped to 311 at the end of 2020. Unsubstantiated claims by some industry commentators that “up to 50 per cent of small builders could go to the wall in the next 12 months” do not appear to be based on evidence. Master Builders Victoria (MBV) has consistently advocated that the best way to protect consumers and help prevent further insolvencies is to protect builders. Many builders in the residential sector have signed fixed-priced contracts. Unlike other products like fuel and food, these unforeseen price increases cannot be passed on to consumers. If builders cannot pass increases onto clients, there is a risk of insolvency, and clients may end up with half-finished homes. That’s why MBV has continued to advocate to the Victorian government to include rise and fall clauses in domestic building contracts. In the meantime, we urge all clients to be kind and patient with builders - everyone is doing their best in exceptionally challenging circumstances. We remain confident that the building and construction industry will overcome these challenges and continue to be the cornerstone of Victoria’s economy. Rebecca Casson, chief executive Master Builders Victoria

July 2022 The Jeeralang Power Station is located at Bonds Lane, Hazelwood North. Jeeralang plays an essential role as a peaking power station providing electricity to the national grid during time of high demand or constrained supply. The Jeeralang Power Station operates predominantly on gas and has provision to operate on diesel as a back-up fuel. With uncertainty regarding ongoing gas supply for electricity generation, EnergyAustralia has sought Environment Protection Authority (EPA) approvaltooperateJeeralangunitsondieselfueltoconductoperational test runs and undertake stack emissions monitoring. During July, EnergyAustralia will commence test firing on diesel to confirm operational readiness and allow for stack emissions testing. Stack wmissions testing involves gathering data from the Jeeralang units when running on diesel for comparison with the parameters applicable to the site s operating licence. During this testing period, the emissions from the stack will be more visible during diesel testing than when operating on gas. The Diesel testing will occur infrequently, and over a period of no longer than 90 days. At the conclusion of the 90 day period a report will be provided to the EPA and we will seek feedback from residents. Should you have any concerns or questions regarding this matter, please contact David Burt, Community Relations Lead on email community.yallourn@energyaustralia.com.au or by telephone 0407 503 990.

Junior baseball stars hit the Valley BASEBALL LVBA BY NICOLE WHTE

LAST weekend saw the Latrobe Valley Baseball Association host the Under 16 State Winter Championships. Teams arrived from Bendigo, Diamond Valley, Dandenong Baseball Association, North East Baseball Association, City West and Geelong to compete against the local Latrobe Valley side. Despite early morning fog on Saturday, the weather held up beautifully to showcase to teams and visitors the best winter baseball that Latrobe Valley has to offer. Games were held over two days at the Morwell Cougars and Traralgon Redsox clubs. Tight scores saw Geelong come out of the round robin as the winners. Most valuable players were awarded for each team. Austin McConvoll was the winner for Latrobe Valley. Others to win the award were Sarah Parley (North East), Cade White (Geelong), Josh Villanti (Dandenog), Hudson Pallay (City West), Jesse Hando (Bendigo). Latrobe Valley finished fourth overall. The LVBA was absolutely thrilled with the weekend and the quality of play shown. LVBA would like to thank Latrobe City Council and Baseball Victoria for the opportunity to host the event, and are thrilled to announce they will again be hosting in 2023.

NOMINATIONS are now open for the 2022 Victorian Disability Sport and Recreation (VDSR) Awards. The VDSR Awards are a celebration of the achievements of sportspeople with disability, plus the coaches, organisations, officials and volunteers who support them and the inclusive sport and recreation sector across Victoria. “Our sector is made up of many humble people, who quietly go about volunteering, coaching and supporting people with disability so they can live healthy, active lives,” Disability Sport & Recreation chief executive Richard Amon said. “Together, these individuals, organisations and clubs are making tremendous, positive change in the lives of people with disability. “We strongly encourage everyone to consider those people who are making a quiet, but significant impact in their communities and acknowledge their contribution by nominating them for an award.” Entrants in the Awards can be nominated by state sporting associations, regional sport assemblies, local government, individuals, teammates, club members, coaches or their local community. Previous winners include Paralympian and wheelchair tennis champion Dylan Alcott, and the 2018 Commonwealth Games Sports Ambassador for Cycling, Dr Jessica Gallagher. Any and all nominations must be submitted by August 31. More information is available on the Disability Sport & Recreation website: https:// www.dsr.org.au/vdsr-awards

Bloods gather for reunion FOOTBALL By BRETT TONKIN

ON Saturday July 15, the Trafalgar Football Club Past Players & Officials Association held their annual Past Player’s Day to celebrate the 1962, 1992 and 2012 senior premierships, 1982 and 1992 reserves premierships and to announce the team of the decade for 2010-2019. A two-course lunch was provided by the club and was attended by over 70 past players as well as Ellinbank and District Football League officials Roger Gwynne (president), Ken Moore (vice president) and Steve Pratt (junior development officer). Past Players Association president, Bryan Leaf, was master of ceremonies, and invited a coach or captain from each premiership being celebrated to talk about the key players and events in that year’s premiership success. Thorpdale farmer Frank Powell spoke on behalf of the 1962 premiership where he was vice-captain, while legendary coach Gary McAlpine spoke on the

1992 premiership which was the club’s first ever back-to-back success. Finally, Brendan Dawson spoke about the 2012 victory over Newborough, which was the club’s third premiership in four seasons. Donna Noonan was the worthy recipient of the Keith Browning Medal for her long-term service to the club as a netball player, coach, club administrator, canteen manager and volunteer in the kitchen on Thursdays and Saturdays over more than 30 years. The club was thrilled to have Keith’s daughter Julie on the day to present the medal on behalf of her father and the wider Browning family. The final presentations for the luncheon were to induct club historian and games record-holder Paul ‘Mopsy’ Taylor, and fellow 400-plus games player and long-term volunteer and official Robert Sapkin (posthumously) into the Trafalgar Football-Netball Club Hall of Fame. The 2010s was a successful decade for Trafalgar, highlighted by Mid Gippsland Football-Netball League premierships in 2010, 2012 and 2018.

One win and two milestones for Gipp United BASKETBALL GIPPSLAND UNITED BIG V

A HUGE double-header was hosted by Gippsland United at the weekend, with results shaping the upcoming finals. With only one regular season round left to go, the club came away with two key wins by both the Women and Men. The last time the women played Altona Gators, they had the trek to the western suburbs to face them at the ‘Swamp’, and lost by 12 points. The home team started off really well early in the first quarter this time around, with the same starting five that got them the win last week. Some terrific ball movement created scoring opportunities, and excellent defence forced a number of Altona turnovers. A late run saw Altona take a two-point lead at quarter time. The second quarter was a tough affair with Altona captain Sharna Appleby going on a tear and carrying her team to a 10-point half-time lead. Gippsland United’s coaching team made some astute adjustments on both ends of the floor, and with timely substitutions the team roared back to lead by two at three quarter time. With great ball movement and an aggressive attack on the rim, the scoring options opened up. The game was on a razor’s edge, with the women holding a narrow lead throughout when co-captain Laura Vannapraseuth hit a massive three-pointer with 11 seconds on the clock to seal the win. It was the best performance as a cohesive unit the team has produced and at the right time of the season. Before the men’s game commenced, the club recognised the game milestones of two club legends in Stephen O’Brien and Ben Barlow. Both have played 100 BigV games. After a rocky start to the game, the Men completely dominated the visiting Melton team to finish the better, winners by 43 points. Led again by B1 & B2 (Brandon Armstrong and Ben Barlow), who both scored team-high 17 points. It was the team contributions from Kody Tibballs and Ben Waller also making a big difference, with Tibballs standing tall and taking three charges to force Altona turnovers. Selection for this team is going to be a headache for coach Scott McKenzie, with star guard Billy Hughes due to be back on the court for the final round. Another massive double header this week sees the women play Blackburn and the men take on Mornington.

Lopsided games feature in North Gippsland footy FOOTBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND BY SCOTT BERECHREE

ROUND 15 of the North Gippsland FootballNetball League saw two changes of note to the ladder at the completion of hostilities on Saturday afternoon. Firstly, Woodside found themselves back in fifth spot as a result of their twenty-odd goal spanking of a lacklustre Glengarry and Sale City’s loss to Yarram. And secondly, courtesy of their huge win over Gormandale, Yallourn Yallourn North leap frogged Churchill, who had the bye, back to top spot. It is fair to say the Yarram result could be one of the few times in history that the Wildcats were happy to see their fiercest rival chalk up a victory. And of course, from a Yarram point of view, their win sees them remain a live chance to get back into the top three at season’s end. While it is all but given the top four will consist of Yallourn Yallourn North, Churchill, Traralgon Tyers United and Yarram, no club as yet can lay claim to owning a top three position, let alone the coveted top spot. And with just two points separating fifth and sixth place (Woodside and Sale City) the battle for fifth spot is likely to go down to the very last round of footy in three weeks’ time. SALE CITY’S chances of maintaining their coveted spot in the five took a hit at the selection table prior to the weekend’s clash with Yarram when Sam Davidson (hamstring injury) and Ben Chivers (knee) were unable to be considered. Yarram too were missing a few players but they seemingly had the superior line up available to them, and that is precisely how the game played out, with the Demons winning 17.11 (113) to 9.7 (61). A five-goal to one first term and four-goal to two second term saw the travelling Demons enter the long break with a more than healthy five goal plus lead. On the back of Dan Vardy’s dominance, teammate Corbin Sutherland reporting that the ruckman won virtually every tap out, Yarram were able to get the ball forward at will and with Josh Swift, six goals, having a day out in front of the big sticks, things got harder for the home side after half time. Sutherland himself slotted three from a wing, and with Boadie Motton hitting the scoreboard to go with what Sutherland suggested was at least forty possessions through the middle of the ground, the game was done by the last change when Yarram led by north of fifty points. Ben Brett, Jack Heywood and Mitch Evans managed multiple goals for the tri-colours but it was too little, too late when they

managed to match Yarram on the scoreboard in the last. For anyone who’d forgotten, clearly Yarram are a better side than they have shown for large parts of this year and whilst they sit fourth now, the top three sides won’t need to take too many peaks in the rear view mirror to see the perennial powerhouse looming large. For Sale City, they now know the standard required to complete with the finalists. Having secured a win over third-placed TTU, we can be sure that their best is good enough but with only three games to go and a few significant injuries, it might be tough for them to sneak back into the five before the end of the season rolls around. SITTING between City and finals is Woodside. The Wildcats, according to coach Michael Duncan, found some of their best form on Saturday playing their “most complete game since round one” when they steamrolled Glengarry by a huge 116 points, 22.20 (152) to 5.6 (36). A whopping 10 Wildcats kicked majors, with Bailey Tatnell and Dave Waddel slotting three apiece while Zac Richards booted a career-best five. While impressed with his side’s offensive output, Duncan was most impressed by the defensive efforts of his front-half, heaping praise on both Richards and Tatnell in particular for their efforts. As good as they were, it was Ryan Foat however who won the most praise from the coach, with Duncan noting Foat was at his absolute best from start to finish. Duncan was also effusive in his praise of first-gamer Adan Jansen and relative newcomer Alex Walpole, who enjoyed his first senior win in Wildcat colours. For Glengarry, only Spencer Poulton managed multiple goals with two, in an effort that must leave the coaching panel scratching their heads. The Pies’ best has proven to be competitive for large parts of games with sides in and around the top three, so how they could cough-up 152 points to the league’s sixth-best side while only managing five goals themselves must be frustrating beyond belief. As one-sided as this clash might have been, it had little on the YYN demolition job over Gormandale. THINGS looked somewhat easier for Gormandale when Yallourn Yallourn North skipper and gun full-forward Dean MacDonald was not listed in the team Thursday night; however come Saturday, D Mac pulled on the jumper and set about kicking the lazy 10 majors. Ably assisted by his wingman Keenan Hughes, who slotted seven majors, the Jets managed to run away

229 point winners, 37.14 (236) to 1.3 (9). Again though, while the focus goes to their heavy-scoring coach, Barrie Burnett must be rapt with his defence. The Jets held Gormandale to just one goal for the day and kept them scoreless in both the second and final terms. Post-game, Burnett acknowledged it was a “good team win” whilst of course noting the individual efforts of several better players, but was adamant it was the Jets ability to “stick to their team structures and not become selfish” that would hold them in good stead come finals time. For Gormandale, Kodie Owen continued his excellent recent form with another best-on performance, but with Isaac Copland the only goal scorer there was little to be positive about for the Tigers. With their percentage taking another big hit, they now appear to be odds-on favourites to remain anchored to the bottom of the table come season’s end. SITTING a relatively comfortable five percentage points in front of Gormandale in second-last place is Cowwarr. They too were soundly beaten Saturday, but managed to at least hit the scoreboard a few times when going down to TTU by 130 points, 24.16 (159) to 4.5 (29). Unlike last week, TTU shared the goalkicking duties around this week, with coach Jamie Aitken managing to manufacture thirteen different goal scorers. Tim Hendricken and Brad Kelleher led the way with four each, with four other players kicking multiple goals. Kade Duncan was named best-on for the Bombers for his efforts on the wing, while midfield weapons Mitch Mustoe and Michael Jacobsen joined Hendricken rounding out the Bombers’ best four players. For the Warr it was all singles with Jack Casson, Wayne Swan and Matt Bourke listed as their best. THE final clash of the round saw Heyfield blow Rosedale out of the water early and then maintain a healthy break across the next three quarters to run out 44-point winners, 16.6 (102) to 9.4 (58). As the first quarter came to a close, the home-side Roos had piled-on seven straight majors to lead by 36 points. With Leigh Brown and Wayne Knight dominant up front - the duo finished with seven between them - the Roos were never seriously challenged. For Rosedale, Declan Barnett and Frazar Brouns kicked two each but after the first quarter it was all academic. Rohan Diamond joined Barnett as the Blues best pair on the park for the visitors. CHURCHILL had the bye.

Race is on to play finals for Mid Gippsland teams FOOTBALL MID GIPPSLAND By ROB POPPLESTONE

FINALS positions, and in fact finals lives, were on the line in round 15 of the Mid Gippsland Football-Netball League, with all five games’ results impacting what lies ahead for teams wanting to be part of what they all play for: finals football.

 THORPDALE V MORWELL EAST

MORWELL EAST arrived at Thorpdale confident of success, but more importantly also wanting to play the style of footy that would have them competitive against some of the better teams in the MGFNL. The Hawks had been hit-and-miss for most of the season and their inconsistency had put in-doubt their chances of a place in finals. Morwell East delivered a clear message to the league, and that is that they want to play finals football, winning, 18.7 (121) to Thorpdale 9.7 (61). “We wanted to take control early and luckily we did just that,” Morwell East coach Devon Soutar said. “Despite a mediocre second quarter, we were able to put the game to bed early in the third, which gave us enough breathing room to somewhat cruise to the line.” The pressure remains on the Hawks as they continue to fight fiercely for a finals position, while for Thorpdale the frustration of not being able to put together four full-quarters remains. “Some great passages of footy but once again can’t sustain it longer than a quarter,” Thorpdale coach Ray Pickering said “When we stick to the plan we can more than hold our own!” That remains the secret for the Blues as we head towards season’s end, but you wouldn’t be taking Thorpdale too easily either, as they are capable of bobbing their head up when you least expect it.

 HILL END V YINNAR

OF all the sides outside the top six, Yinnar would quite possibly be the most dangerous if given the chance to take part in finals. The Magpies have mixed it with and beaten some of the best, only to be cruelly beaten on a handful of occasions by less than a kick. Those close losses during the season not only denied them a position much further up the ladder, but also had them fighting for their lives against Hill End on the weekend before - guess what - the Magpies did it again! Hill End 7.8 (50) to Yinnar 7.6 (48). “I can’t fault the boys’ effort,” Yinnar coach Daniel Taylor said. “We brought a negative game plan as I knew it was the only way we could hang in there; to the boys’ credit they stuck to it and it kept us in the game. Unfortunately it’s our third loss in a row by under a kick. “Really proud of the boys’ effort but unfortunately we came up short. That’s footy. “We crawl into the bye, which is really needed. We should get eight or nine blokes back, but we’re now relying on results to go our way, which is never how you want it to be.” The close contest was another the Magpies

were on the wrong side of, and one which Hill End was happy to take the points from. “We played patches of really good footy but overall I thought Yinnar outworked us over the four quarters,” Hill End coach Mick Santo said. “They came home hard and they played like their season was on the line; we only did in patches which was disappointing. Some individual brilliance from Aaron Fawcett and Ambu allowed us to get the win over a hungrier team. “Although we don’t have the budgets of the Newboroughs and Fosters of the league, talent still isn’t our issue - it’s concentration and a desire to work harder than the opponents. “In saying that, it’s really encouraging to lock-in a finals spot with that win.” The Rovers can certainly plan for finals with some certainty, while for the Magpies there remains some work to do.

 NEWBOROUGH V FOSTER

WITH a fair bit of heat below these teams, a win was crucial for both, but only possible for one as the Tigers arrived at the Kennel. Foster was still fighting to secure their top six spot, Newborough desperately keen to retain the second position on the ladder. The clash didn’t disappoint either, with the visitors surprising the home-side favourites with a 27-point victory, 17.11 (131) to 12.14 (86). “Big day for us against a very good Newborough side, they obviously have high quality players on every line,” Foster coach Sam Davies said. “It took a quarter to get the play on our terms, but I thought we were super for quarters 2, 3 and 4. It’s nice for the playing group to see what our best looks like. Discipline and experience adds up.” The good news for Foster spells danger for Newborough, with the Bulldogs dropping from their second spot to third and with some work to do over the next few weeks. “The weekend was another good start against good opposition and felt we had control of the game early,” Newborough coach Craig Skinner said. “And maybe that was the problem, because midway through the second quarter there was a momentum shift. “At half-time we knew we were going to be in a fight after losing Zac Skinner for the day, and struggling to find answers as to why we were being beaten in so many areas of the ground. “Sam and Foster earned their win today and have some serious firepower up forward now. They will be the most dangerous come finals.” It appears that finals time will present the most intriguing series for the MGFNL in many years, with every side capable of beating any other on their day, and at this stage whose day it will be is anyone’s guess.

 STONY CREEK V TOORA

STONY Creek were under no illusions as to what was required in their clash with Toora; it was win or nothing - a win would keep them in touch with the top six, a loss and it was all over. The Lions had courageously kept in-touch, hoping that some above them would falter under the pressure and provide an unlikely

opportunity for them to pounce. That opportunity remains alive after their convincing 20.20 (140) to Toora 5.5 (35) victory. Stony Creek coach Jay Acardi described the win as “a good result” for the club. “We were able to control a lot of play but if you take the score-line out of it, to the Toora boys’ credit they didn’t give up...” “The job gets a fair bit tougher next week when we head to Tarwin.” An unlikely win against Tarwin would have the Lions well-positioned to steal a spot late in the league’s top six, and from there anything is possible. The Magpies on the other hand didn’t expect a lot going into the game, but it is probably fair to say they expected more than what they got. Matthew Ponton, “Taking an undermanned side in to Stony Creek was always going to present a challenge and it proved true on the weekend,” Toora coach Matthew Ponton. “Our effort and two-way running picked-up in the second half but our skills were poor to say the least, and we didn’t pressure our opponents up to the standard of senior football. “All in all, a poor day from our side.” Best players for Toora included Jake McFarland, Jake Weston and Jessie Biemans, but the Magpies still need plenty more contributors to win games.

 FISH CREEK V MDU FISH Creek’s chances of competing in the finals were very slim, almost nil, before their clash with MDU on the weekend, and all that was needed by the Kangaroos to keep the dream alive heading into the last month of football was to keep winning, and that is exactly what they did, winning 12.8 (80) to 9.5 (59). “Terrific to win a close one this week; this year we’ve lost those closer games, so it’s satisfying,” Fish Creek coach John Danckert said. “Really pleased for the boys, it’s been a frustrating year but to hit some form late is reward for some hard work.” Although it seems that the Kangaroos’ run has come a little late, at least it’s there and is a tremendous foundation from which to build a 2023 season. MDU too, it must be said, continues to show all the signs of a side on the way up. MDU coach Peter Harris said it was a cracking game of footy. “Unfortunately we made some skill errors that Fishy were able to capitalise on late. Boys played a great brand of footy that we should be proud of. Need the bye next week with plenty of sore boys after today’s contest.” The brand of football being played throughout the league should be commended - it’s honest, aggressive, hard but skilful, and you get the feeling the best is yet to come. BOOLARRA, Mirboo North and Tarwin all had byes.

Maroons in thrilling tie with Wonthaggi Power FOOTBALL GIPPSLAND LEAGUE BY LIAM DURKIN

LIKE a bag of Allen’s Party Mix, Round 15 had a bit of everything in the Gippsland League. There was a game decided by two points, a game decided by multiplying that amount by 70, and a game that couldn’t be decided at all. SALE played like it was 2012 again. The Magpies catapulted to second spot on the ladder after massacring Moe by 140 points at Sale Oval. The Lions hadn’t won at Sale Oval since 2002, and it became clear early in the third quarter another year was going to be added to this drought. Not long after the ball was held aloft to start the game, Sale had a goal on the board, the first of what ended up being a final scoreboard reading 26.16 (172) to 4.6 (30). Moe showed some resistance in the firsthalf, and trailed by 41 points at the main break, before the wheels well and truly fell off. Sale kicked eight goals to none in the third term, and then 10 goals to two in the last. Truthfully, the Magpies treated the Lions as witches’ hats in the second half. The word ‘clinical’ was probably the best description of how Sale went about its business, as they dominated possession and continually surged the ball forward. The Magpies’ skill level and presence of mind was top shelf, to the extent they constantly seemed to be toying with their opponents. Ryan Pendlebury exemplified this, at times shaping to handball, only to then have acres of space in which to kick having sold the dummy. Play-of-the-day resulted in a bizarre outcome, after a crafty handball from Jarrod Freeman in the forward pocket in front of the Past Players Hill, set up a path for Tom Campbell to snap the ball through. The only problem was the snap was called a behind, despite the fact the ball clearly went through for a goal. For Moe, this was their only win for the day, and shaved five points off the final margin. Campbell ended up being credited with five goals, while Jesse Collins, Jack McLaren and Shannen Lange each kicked three. Moe’s plan to tag Lange backfired completely, as he was voted best-on-ground. Collins and McLaren also played well, as did the Leslie brothers, Will and Jack, and Pat Tainsh. Moe defender Brock Smith was kept busy, and battled manfully, while Scott Van Dyk, Ben Morrow, James Blaser, Ben Maslen and Grady Cocksedge did likewise. If the scoreboard wasn’t a reflection of how one-sided the contest was, the sight of Moe players looking exhausted post-game, while one Sale player was heard to say they “didn’t even break into a sweat”, surely painted a clear picture. Having put together as close to a complete performance as one would hope to see, Magpies’ coach Jack Johnstone was understandably pleased with how his side played. “We knew that it was going to be tight early on, but if we kept our pressure up, eventually the game could blow out,” he said. “Luckily the boys cashed in at the end and blew the margin out, which is a bit of reward for effort. “You know what you are going to get out of your Shannen Langes and Jack Leslies, but Mitchy Bown and Cooper Whitehill, Jake Hutchins coming in off the back line, there is a lot of pressure from this young group, it has been nice to see the older guys take a step back.” Following their huge win and other results falling their way, Sale now has a clear path to securing a double-chance, something Johnstone said the team was striving toward. “We have to win these next three games, the Traralgon one especially (in Round 17),” he said. “We would be disappointed if we didn’t get the top three, but at the end of the day we just want to keep winning games of footy.” Arguably the biggest difference from Sale this season compared to their finals series squads of 2018 and 2019 is depth. For the first time in close to a decade, the Magpies have healthy numbers and quality players running around in the early game. There was some more than handy names on the Sale reserves team sheet at the weekend; names such as Shane Fyfe, Jamie Sweeney, Russell ‘Rusty’ McAdam and Mitch Thacker

Dan the man: Dan Musil breaks through the banner to celebrate his 100th game for Morwell at the weekend. photograph morwell fnc - all who have senior finals experience. “We’ve had 42 blokes the last two Thursday nights, at the moment there is 14,15 guys missing out on reserves selection,” Johnstone said. “That is a credit to Sam Anstee the footy director and Pete Morrow (Peter Morrison) the twos coach, that they have guys wanting to play at this club again. “When you have both teams winning and looking like they are going to play finals it just adds that motivation to get more guys involved, and that is what is happening.” For Moe, the season has reached a stage where there may only be one thing left to do: Spotify > The Beatles > Here Comes the Sun. MAFFRA pulled off a miracle. The Eagles hit the lead right at the death against Morwell, and held on to win by three points 11.10 (76) to 9.19 (73). The result had instant ramifications for both sides, with the visitors climbing back into the top five after their victory. Had Morwell won, they would have gone two games clear into the top five, and Maffra’s season could have been effectively shot. Instead, the Eagles live to fight another day. For at least 90 per cent of the game, the Tigers looked to have the match won, however, poor conversion in front of goal allowed Maffra to stay in the contest. By half-time, Morwell had registered 21 scoring shots to nine, but led by only 22 points. A stalemate played out in the third, with both sides only managing one goal, with the Tigers ahead by 15 points heading into the last. Tensions boiled over as teams made their way to their respective huddles, the fallout of which saw two very different outcomes. From all reports, the quarrel fired Maffra up, while Morwell became slightly rattled. The Eagles then kicked 4.3 (23) in the last term, and kept the Tigers to 1.3 (9) to steal victory from the jaws of defeat. In the eyes of most, Maffra had no right to win the match, but the cool heads of Ed and Alex Carr, along with John Butcher (four goals), ensured the Eagles stayed composed during the frantic last few minutes. Young gun Tom Jolly kicked five for the winners, while Jack Challands was voted best-on, and was closely followed by David Adams. Tristen Waack continued his stellar form, and was best for Morwell. Others to play well were Archie Grant, Boyd Bailey, Brandon Mcauliffe, James Jacobsen and Tyler Brown. The match was also Dan Musil’s 100th for the Tigers. A somewhat unassuming type, Musil has become one of Morwell’s most reliable and respected players.

SPECTATORS got their monies worth at Wonthaggi. The Power played out a thrilling draw against Traralglon, as scores were deadlocked 62 apiece. The Maroons kicked more goals than their opponents, but had to make do with splitting the points as the scoreboard read 8.14 (62) to 9.8 (62). For the most part, the game was evenly matched, and a tie may well have been a fair result. Wonthaggi got on top in the second term, keeping Traralgon to just two points, before the Maroons responded in a dominate third term, during which time they kicked five goals to one. The visitors were nine points ahead at the last change. Wonthaggi then kicked three straight in the last to 1.3 (9), to see each team receive two points for their efforts. Best for Traralgon were Conor Little, Tye Hourigan, Tom Schneider, Hugh Dunbar, Luis D’Angelo and Matt Northe. Jack Hutchinson, Josh Bates, Harry Dawson, Flynn Anderson, Steven Scott and Will Lenehan played well for the Power. Wonthaggi has now drawn two matches this season; the first team to do so since Leongatha in 1978. DROUIN celebrated a win for morale sake. Making the never-easy trip to Bairnsdale, the Hawks got the points in a 14.14 (98) to 10.5 (65) contest. Drouin showed good character, and finished strongly with four goals to none in the final term. Best for the victors was Tom Barr, Jordan Kingi, Jarrod Marshall, Joe Collins, Cambell Jolly and Clayton Kingi. Logan Austin, Nathan Dennison, Kieran Vickery, Brayden McCarey, Simon Deery and Oscar Clarke were solid for the Redlegs. The win puts Drouin equal on points with Bairnsdale in ninth, meaning the ‘race’ to avoid the wooden spoon is still on. LEONGATHA did as Leongatha has done 14 times previously this season. The Parrots maintained their unbeaten run, defeating Warragul 12.16 (88) to 3.7 (25). Luther Juric, Jake van der Pligt, Cade Maskell, Cameron Stone, Ned Hanily and Luke Bowman were best for the green and gold. Kai MacLean, Sean Masterson, Brad Hefford, Sam Whibley and Liam Serong did well for the Guls. With 21 consecutive wins, Leongatha holds the longest winning-streak out of any team in country Victoria. The Parrots last lost on June 19 last year. Do you back Leongatha or the field for the premiership?

Around the netball courts

Case of déjà vu for Traralgon NETBALL GIPPSLAND LEAGUE BY LIAM DURKIN

MOE survived a huge scare from Sale in Round 15 of Gippsland League netball. The Lions, safe for the time being in third position on the ladder, very nearly dropped the bundle when they travelled to Sale Oval. Sale, who having struggled this season with only a handful of wins to their name, came within two goals of causing what would have been the biggest upset of the season … possibly many seasons. The Magpies fought tooth and nail against their more fancied opponents, only for the final whistle to sound just as they saw the chance of securing the four points. Moe would have breathed a sigh of relief when the match ended, and will be hoping it is not a true reflection of their form. Sale meanwhile, will take a great deal of confidence from the result, and although disappointed to have lost, are now all of a sudden a team that could provide some nuisance value for opponents in the last three rounds of the home-and-away season. Morwell continued its domination in Gippsland League netball stakes, defeating Maffra 57 to 31. The Tigers were rarely challenged at home, and gave their percentage something of a boost in the aftermath. Shannon Freeman was again best for Morwell, and is showing exactly why she was recruited to the club in the offseason. The Tigers are 10 points clear of their nearest rival on the ladder, and with three games to go in the regular season, something would have to go drastically wrong for Morwell not to claim the minor premiership. A major COVID outbreak is looking like the only thing standing in the way of a Morwell premiership this season. Having won the flag in 2019, would it count as back-to-back flags if the Tigers saluted this year? In one of the most bizarre occurrences, Traralgon’s A Grade netball team and senior football team had ties in their matches at the weekend. The Maroons and Power could not be separated on the football field or netball court, and had to split the points in both. The Traralgon netballers saw the scoreboard deadlocked at 49 apiece at the end of their game. It was a familiar feeling for the Maroons, having tied a game previously this season. Traralgon is still fourth on the table, and will

look to make its finals qualification a mathematical certainty this week. Drouin got over the line against Bairnsdale, winning 51 to 44. The Hawks, in sixth, need to keep winning to try

and pinch a spot in the finals, and are currently two points out. Leongatha is finals bound, and did a number of Warragul, getting the job done in a comprehensive effort 67 to 36.

Yinnar and Morwell East have big wins NETBALL MID GIPPSLAND BY LIAM DURKIN

ROUND 15 netball saw three teams have the bye in Mid Gippsland. Mirboo North, Boolarra and Tarwin all put their feet up, while 10 other clubs went out to do battle. The Tigers of Mirboo North are still looking down on everyone, two-points clear on top of the ladder. Yinnar looks to be a team that might upset Mirboo North, and gave its percentage a huge boost at the weekend after showing no mercy against Hill End. Needing to fine tune before finals, the Magpies did just that in an 81 to 19 pounding. Goals flowed freely through the net for Yinnar, who left the Willow Grove Recreation Reserve with plenty to be happy about. Newborough had a similarly one-sided game against Foster. The Bulldogs, in sixth, powered to a 68 to 41 victory. Newborough’s destiny is in its own hands, and the Bulldogs will make a return to finals if they can just string a couple more wins together before the regular season is out. Morwell East dominated Thorpdale. The Hawks put the foot down from the outset, and never gave the Blues a look-in, eventually winning 75 to 21. Like Yinnar, Morwell East looks like a team that can beat Mirboo North come finals, and the Hawks will take confidence from the fact they have already done so during the home-and-away. In other matches, Fish Creek and MDU played out a tight game decided by only three goals, while Toora was far too good for Stony Creek, winning 59 to 20.

Recruit of the year: Shannon Freeman was again best-on-court for Morwell, this time putting in a strong display against Maffra. photograph gippsland league

Bombers rewarded with consecutive victories

NETBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND BY LIAM DURKIN

WOODSIDE showed it is still the best team in North Gippsland netball. The Wildcats defeated Glengarry by four goals, in what will surely be a huge boost to the team as finals loom large. After the Magpies had assumed top-spot a couple of weeks ago, Woodside got the better of their opponents on this occasion, in a match that could well be a precursor to the grand final. Sale City won a very important match against Yarram. The Bulldogs triumphed 52 to 35, and remain a realistic change of taking it to Woodside and Glengarry as a result. The Demons on the other hand, now face a series of mini-finals before the actual finals begin. Yallourn Yallourn North found good reward for

effort, and were too good for Gormandale in a 42 to 24 scoreline. Traralgon Tyers United made it back-to-back wins, after defeating Cowwarr 52 to 41. Having gone 13 rounds without a victory, leaving many to wonder if the Bombers would even win a game this season, they have all of a sudden found two. Scores or the outcome of the match between Heyfield and Rosedale were not available at time of going to press. Churchill had the bye. Match-of-the-Round this Saturday sees Glengarry take on Sale City. In other games, Cowwarr and YYN will both entertain thoughts of a win, as will TTU and Churchill when they meet. Yarram and Heyfield clash in what is a must-win for both teams, while Woodside should have too many answers for Gormandale. Rosedale has the bye.

Gippsland FC celebrates 3-0 win

SOCCER GIPPSLAND FC

UNDER 15 AFTER a really strong start, the Gippsland Under 15s looked to right a few wrongs from recent clashes with Ashburton FC. The boys looked switched-on early, with high pressure on the ball-carrier, passes hitting their marks and a couple of attempts on goal. Then all of a sudden, it all stopped. For the next 25 minutes the boys went missing. In this time Ashburton were able to put a goal on the board and Gippsland were chasing the game. Some strong words in the rooms at half-time saw the desired response from the team. Ashburton did manage another goal, however the approach from the team was much improved. In the last few minutes, Gippsland pressed hard. Siya Mapiye managed a well-taken goal after some hard work on the wing by Aiden Rodriguez. The last few minutes were all Gippsland as they pushed relentlessly for the equaliser. Ashburton managed to hang on, winning 2-1. Best for Gippsland was Siya Mapiye, awarded player of the match. Luca Dicorleto was also hard to beat in defence and Noah Jackson gave his usual wholehearted effort.

UNDER 16 GIPPSLAND’S Under 16s travelled to Princes Park in Caulfield to take on South Melbourne, who were one point ahead of Gippsland on the ladder. The game was hard-fought with both teams having numerous shots on goal. The defenders were all working hard to keep the ball out of the net, with keeper Jeffrey Pearson making many great saves. When given the opportunity to move the ball forward, Gippsland’s midfield of Nicolas Nardone and Levi Colantuono controlled the ball before slotting it through for the forwards to strike the back of the net. Unfortunately though, South Melbourne’s keeper was able to stop all attempts. The game finished in a nil-all draw. Abraham Konyi was awarded player of the day.

UNDER 18 THE Gippsland Under 18 boys travelled out for an early 11am kick-off on the Mornington Peninsula to take on a determined home team. Gippsland winger Julian Colantuono was able to pounce on a defensive error to put his team ahead. Gippsland would maintain their status on top of the game throughout the rest of the first half,. Gippsland maintained a solid status at the back through the second half. With only a few minutes left in the game, Campbell Dastey belted the cover off the ball and smashed it into the back of the net for Gippsland’s third goal, securing three points in a 3-0 performance on a wet and slippery surface in Mornington.

Poise: Harry Humphrey’s in action for Gippsland FC.

Falcons hold narrow lead with two rounds left SOCCER LVSL BY LAURIE WILLIAMS

ROUND 16 REVIEW IT now seems to be a race between two for the coveted 2022 Latrobe Valley Soccer League title, with Morwell rivals Falcons 2000 and Fortuna 60 neck-and-neck with only two games to go. Both sides were victorious away from home whilst there were further wins to Monash, Pegasus, and Moe due to Traralgon City forfeting their Saturday night fixture.  MOE V TRARALGON

FOR a brief time Moe moved into second position on the ladder, courtesy of a forfeit by Traralgon City on Saturday night. Due to injuries, COVID and unavailability, Traralgon City were unable to field two competitive teams for Saturday night’s fixture. Moe were gifted three points which put them in second, but only briefly as Sunday’s matches Falcons, Pegasus and Fortuna all won, which put Moe back into third position. The win sees Moe still four points behind league leaders Falcons and with only two games to go, their title aspirations have all but evaporated.  NEWBOROUGH/YALLOURN V FORTUNA

ARGUABLY the match-of-the-round was in Newborough as the Combine hosted a red-hot Fortuna side looking to press-on with their quest for league title glory. A see-sawing affair started in fabulous fashion

Sooner after, The Orangemen scored their third and fourth goals to put the game beyond doubt to win 4-2, keeping them two points behind Falcons on the ladder.

for the away side as they hit the lead with a thunderbolt from central midfielder Daniel Cooper. Despite being on top early, Newborough/Yallourn soon equalised after a defensive mix-up gifted them the opportunity to put the ball in the net. The home side then took the lead as a John Cook free-kick was poorly dealt with by the Fortuna ‘keeper and the rebound was tucked away. Not to be denied, Fortuna found an equaliser as Alex Bowman, a former Newborough/Yallourn player, came back to haunt his former side with a solid header to ensure the game was tied at the main break. Unfortunately for the home side, they could not muster the effort required to upset their more fancied opponent and a red card to Shayne Pavich made it all the more difficult.

PEGASUS made hard work of warding off a determined Churchill side, with the Flying Horsemen knowing that they still needed points with only two matches to play, but Churchill made it hard for them to get goals on the board. Pegasus were first to score after a well-taken free-kick and then made it two by half time. Churchill came out fighting in the second term and were rewarded with a own goal from Pegasus after a shot from Will McGrath was fumbled by the usually-alert keeper Santo Simon. A middling affair ended up in a 2-1 win to Pegasus and with only two games to go, their league title aspirations, like Moe, are all but extinguished.  MONASH V SALE

IN one of the comebacks of the year, Monash came from two goals down to win 3-2 against ladder rivals Sale. It’s been a topsy-turvy campaign for both sides, but the win for Monash sees them leapfrog the Swans into sixth spot on the ladder.  EAST GIPPSLAND V FALCONS

IN one of the good news stories of the year, East Gippsland proved to the wider Gippsland football community that gone are the days of uncompetitive displays, and it was none more present than on Sunday at home against the might of league leaders Falcons 2000. After copping what could only be described as a

severe drubbing at the hands of the Morwell side earlier in the year, the Eagles were breathing fire to prove a point and that they did. The home side have a unique playing surface that they clearly understand better than most opponents, and even the Morwell side could not fashion much more than two guilt-edged chances in a first half that was full of vigour and tenacity by the youthful Eagles outfit. It was nil-all at the break and whilst East Gippsland hadn’t created much in the way of chances, it would be pleased with the stalemate at half time. Once the second-half commenced, it was clear Falcons had been read the riot act at half time and it responded in a way that good sides normally do: a lift in intensity and pressure. A stroke of genius by coach Mark Cassar was to thrust veteran Nick D’Alessandro into the middle of the park, and his physicality started to turn the tide. It would be D’Alessandro who would indirectly give his side the lead. His marauding run into the box caused the East Gippsland defence to bring him down in such a blatant manner that a penalty was inevitable. Captain Sam Amaira, with the game on the line, finished like a true marksman that eased the tension around the Falcons players and supporters. With five minutes to go, Elias Yousif put the result beyond doubt as he cut-in from the right wing to smash the ball into the top left hand corner. The win sees the Morwell side maintain top-spot and their eyes firmly on what is, probably, the game of the year against Morwell Pegasus in two weeks’ time in a Saturday night blockbuster.

STANDING IN THE HALL OF FAME Legends: Maria Maselli, Anna Prezioso and Diane Penney were selected in the Bocce Australia Team of the Half Century. BOCCE By LIAM DURKIN

A TRIO of local bocce players are now officially some of the best to ever grace a court. Italian Australian Club, Morwell members Diane Penney, Maria Maselli and Anna Prezioso were recently selected in the Bocce Australia Team of the Half Century. The timing of the announcement was quite fitting, as it coincided with the recent National Bocce Championships, held in Morwell. The who’s who of Bocce Australia, and most of the Australian bocce fraternity, were on-hand to congratulate the ladies, who were formally bestowed with the honour during the nationals. Penney, who plays both Bocce-Volo and BocceRaffa, has won and holds 10 Australian Bocce-Volo titles, and has represented Australia twice in world titles, in China and Argentina. Penny said it came as quite a shock hearing her name called out. “I was just gobsmacked, it was a great honour, something that I didn’t expect,” she said. Maria Maselli has had a distinguished career in the sport, being a four-time doubles Australian

champion and a two-time triples Australian champion. Maselli also won a Gold medal at the Asia Oceania Sport Boules Championships, and represented Australia at the Women’s World Titles in China. “To be put in the same team as some of the members that you look up to, because a lot have been playing a lot longer than us, to even think that we are in the same team as them is a big honour,” Maselli said. “There were 10 inducted and three from Morwell so that is a big thing.” Anna Prezioso has just about done it all in bocce, with four doubles Australian championships, two triples, a Gold medal at the Asia Oceania Sport Boules Championships, and an Australian guernsey at the Women’s World Titles leading her to already be inducted into the Hall of Fame for her services to the Morwell Club, Bocce Victoria and Bocce Australia. “It was an honour, I never expected it,” she said. “We have been playing for quite a while together, that is what makes it an honour … very proud.” Bocce Australia president Frank Funari was on hand to make the presentations, and congratulated the trio on their induction. “We have three from Morwell, which is a credit

FINALS venues for the Gippsland League have been locked in. The Gippsland League Board of Management released the venue allocations for the 2022 finals series last week. The 2022 venues will feature the centralised finals system with Ted Summerton Reserve (Moe), Morwell Recreation Reserve and Terry Hunter Oval (Traralgon) being utilised to hold the finals match days. The decision to implement the centralised finals venues for all finals, as the league has done in the past, aims to keep the travel of competing teams, volunteers and supporters as fair as possible, taking into account the geography of the league’s member clubs. With all 10 clubs set to feature in finals, the goal to reduce any outstanding distances of a competing club and their supporters was a high priority in the decision-making. The league will continue to operate a shared catering services model, which allows all 10 member clubs an opportunity to be involved in the catering arrangements and revenue model during the finals series. GIPPSLAND LEAGUE FINALS SERIES Qualifying Final: Morwell Rec Reserve (Saturday, August 27) Elimination Final: Terry Hunter Oval, Traralgon (Sunday, August 28) 2nd Semi Final: Ted Summerton Reserve, Moe (Saturday, September 3) 1st Semi Final: Terry Hunter Oval, Traralgon (Sunday, September 4) Preliminary Final: Morwell Rec Reserve (Saturday, September 10) Grand Final: Ted Summerton Reserve, Moe (Saturday, September 17)

to the club; they have produced a lot of champions over the years, and to have three of the women inducted is a great achievement for them and the club, and we are so proud of them,” he said. Away from the courts, Penney, Maselli and Prezioso have contributed greatly to the life and times of the Italian Australian Club, as has Franco Fava, who was also inducted into the Bocce Australia Hall of Fame as a General Member for his contribution to the sport as a coach, referee and athlete. Fava has been a successful coach and referee and one of the most colourful performers in Australian Bocce history. As a coach he has trained many successful junior, men and women athletes at the club at national and international level, and has won Silver medals in Raffa singles and doubles at the Asia Oceania Bocce Raffa Championships. The new inductees were presented with a green badge sporting the Bocce Australia logo and the words ‘Team Of Half Century’ emblazoned across the front. Those badges are set to be proudly displayed by Penney, Maselli and Prezioso whenever they are down at the Italian-Australian Club.
