$48.2 MILL-ION A PLANNED energy from waste project at the Maryvale mill has been given a leg up with a $48.2 million federal government funding commitment. Federal Member for Gippsland Darren Chester was on site at the Opal Australian Paper mill last week to announce funding for the $600 million project slated to start construction by the end of this year. Mr Chester stressed that the funding had already been committed and was not contingent upon the outcome of the May 21 federal election. “This is great news for the Latrobe Valley. Our region has an incredible history as a powerhouse, and of energy and manufacturing in this state,” Mr Chester said. “Part of this great future of what we are talking about

today, is the federal government working in partnership with the private sector to secure jobs here at Maryvale and also jobs for the future.” The facility will process 325,000 tonnes of municipal landfill into energy to power the paper mill, while reducing greenhouse gas emissions by 270,000 tonnes a year. Opal is hoping for the plant to start operating in late 2025, while providing 500 construction jobs and 450 operational jobs. The project has already secured half of the feedstock needed to power the plant through waste manager Veolia, with the facility to be built in a staged approach. Opal corporate strategic project general manager David Jettner said they were in the process of securing the remaining feedstock by applying for council tenders in metro and regional Victoria. Mr Jettner said the federal government support was

“crucial” to help resolve these final hurdles, which also included securing finance, with the backing of the Clean Energy Finance Corporation. “This $48.2 million grant demonstrates the federal government’s confidence in our facility and transformational manufacturing infrastructure projects,” Mr Jettner said. Latrobe City Council Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan welcomed the investment which she said would boost the region’s economy and secure the financial futures of local residents. “These types of commitments create lasting positive change for our community,” Cr O’Callaghan said. “Latrobe City Council has a commitment to driving economic transformation for the long-term. This announcement is welcome news to complement our work.”

A call to tackle climate change now By MICHELLE SLATER

Farm Box has since grown from being listed as an essential service during lockdown, with continued support from customers across Victoria interested in sourcing Gippsland procured produce. Mr Aridi said they were working closely with Morwell veggie growers Verduci Market Gardens, and have now expanded into a warehouse on Commercial Road. “Morwell is a prime location, it’s easier for suppliers to reach us and it has access to the freeway to Melbourne,” he said. “Now, two years after lockdowns, people are looking to continue their support for local farmers. This is premium produce. It’s different and it’s better.”

Farm Box started up two years ago amid the pandemic supplying Gippsland produce to people stuck in lockdown. The business distributes fresh fruit and vegetables, and an array of locally-made produce throughout Victoria, working out of a distribution warehouse in Morwell. Co-owner Basil Aridi said he signed on to the open letter to call for governments to take a stronger action on climate change, while looking after workers in the Latrobe Valley.

“By ignoring what’s happening with climate change, things won’t get any better. We’ve seen bushfires, floods and biodiversity decline, these are not good for anyone,” Mr Aridi told The Express. “We have to change. Now is the time for the federal representatives and candidates to back this. We also need to support workers with an appropriate plan in place to look at transition.” The open letter backed by Environment Victoria is calling for the federal government to replace fossil fuels with clean energy, while supporting the south-eastern region to adapt and thrive. It is calling for the feds to commit to stronger emissions targets by 2030, as well as contribute significant funding to the Latrobe Valley Authority.

HESC pilot project completed By MICHELLE SLATER

THE much heralded brown coal-to-hydrogen pilot project has come to a close with consortium partners now assessing the figures to move to a commercial plant. The $500 million Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain had successfully transported three tonnes of hydrogen created at the Loy Yang pilot plant out of the Port of Hastings to Kobe in Japan. HESC was backed by a consortium of project partners led by Kawasaki Heavy Industries and the Japanese government, with $100 million from both the state and federal governments. Consortium partner J-Power non-executive director Jeremy Stone said Victorians should be “proud of” the success of the world-first project. Mr Stone said now that the trial had successfully proven the supply chain, project partners would now analyse the pilot data to move to producing 225,000 tonnes of hydrogen a year. It comes as the federal government was

providing $7.5 million, to be matched by the state government, to help upscale the project. Mr Stone said he could not give a date on when the next step would take place, but he was “confident” the upscaled plant could be operating by the end of the decade. He said this would include looking at front end engineering designs, discussing off take agreements with potential customers and then obtaining regulatory approvals. “We need to get customers’ commitment to sign off on it. But this hydrogen could go anywhere, Japan, South Korea, Singapore. Or even in Victoria where it could be converted to ammonia,” Mr Stone said. “There are opportunities in Australia to use this hydrogen, as well as overseas.” Meanwhile, the Loy Yang gasification plant was now under “carer and maintenance mode into the foreseeable future”, while the Hastings plant was being used by other companies for research. “The (Latrobe Valley) plant is locked up, but

we are still conducting site visits and we have an organisation responsible for its care and maintenance,” Mr Stone said. “Once we work out the commercial pathway, we will proceed to the next ability for the pilot plant, either remove it, reactivate it or incorporate in into the larger commercial plant.” Mr Stone stressed that ongoing community consultation would be an important part of the project. But the upscaled plant would need to be operating in conjunction with the CarbonNet carbon capture and storage project underway in Bass Strait. “Both projects are progressing at the same time, it’s a coordinated approach and we are satisfied by independent assessments that this will work,” Mr Stone said. “We are confident based on the information we’ve seen that this will work.”

Local aged care privatisation to go ahead By MICHELLE SLATER

LATROBE City has announced new home aged and community care providers after it hands the service to the private sector from July, following major federal government reforms. Benetas will provide aged care services for people over 65 within the Commonwealth Home Support Programme in Latrobe City and Baw Baw Shire – as chosen by the federal government. Uniting Gippsland will deliver home and community care programs for younger people. Latrobe City made the decision in a closed-doors meeting in 2019, and this year will be among the last Gippsland councils to exit the service. Latrobe City will notify service recipients before the changes take place and will support them into the transition. “We understand and acknowledge that these changes will result in a period of uncertainty for our clients, their families and carers, along with our staff and volunteers, who are valued members of our aged and community care services teams,” Latrobe City said in a statement. “Residents who currently receive aged and community care services do not need to do anything.” The change means the loss of approximately 100 jobs from Latrobe City, including part time and casual employees. Latrobe City chief executive officer Steven Piasente said council had been working to transition staff to new jobs, while others may choose to head into retirement.

Decision: Latrobe City has announced new home aged and community care providers after it hands the service to the private sector from July, following major federal government reforms. file photograph “Some of these staff members have been working with us for a very long time and I thank them for all the work they’ve done for us,” Mr Piasente said. “Having these staff work with us for most of their careers, they should be proud of the work they’ve done for the community in that period of time.”

Mr Piasente stressed that the changes were being driven from a federal level, and Latrobe City could not compete in the market to deliver the services in the long term. The changes would mean significantly higher contributions from ratepayers and would not allow council to offer the suite of services expected as a funding package. “We went through a very thorough process to look at alternative providers, we are confident that the providers that were chosen will provide quality services,” Mr Piasente said. The decision had raised the ire of Australian Services Union members who last year had distributed a petition to stop the plan from going ahead. ASU secretary Lisa Darmanin said she feared that working conditions could be threatened, and the amount of time carers could spend with each vulnerable resident would be shortened. “The unwillingness of councillors to revisit the decision made in 2019 will have consequences for Latrobe City Council’s aged care workforce and elderly residents in the Latrobe Valley,” Ms Darmanin said “No region, least of all the Latrobe Valley, needs women workers pushed into insecure work with fewer protections and lower conditions of employment.” Latrobe City plans to host a series of discussion groups for the community to have its say on age and disability services.

Accountant’s warning about finance scam By JACI HICKEN

A SOPHISTICATED scam promising a start-up loan for new business from the Australian Taxation Office is targeting Latrobe Valley residents. The scam identifies itself as an ATO scheme that promises applicants a guaranteed loan with little or no repayments for values of up to $70,000. Operating by asking applicants for their MyGov log-in details, the scammers then ask people to log an initial Business Activity Statement. The scam appears to be targeting long-term unemployed, carers and older people who may

be starting a business to meet Centrelink requirements. Bull and Associates accountant Tony Albanese has had two people come forward after falling victim to the scam, once the fraudulent activity has been identified in their accounts by both the ATO and their bank. “The scammers focus is people who are down on their luck, maybe not in a very great financial position due to the pandemic and not very technically savvy,” Mr Albanese said. “You should never give any access to your MyGov account and always speak to a registered tax agent

or accountant if you need tax or business advice,” he said. “Once the applicants receive what the ATO thinks at the time is a legitimate refund, the scammers demand payments of amounts around $15,000 for their services, which people then pay.” Because the people targeted have willingly given over their MyGov details, it’s their responsibility and they will have to pay the ATO back the money, including the money they paid to the scammers for their services. “If it’s too good to be true, then it more than likely is not true,” Mr Albanese said.

Traralgon man found not guilty By CALLUM GODDE, AAP

A LATROBE Valley man has been found not guilty of failing to stop after his ex-wife was crushed by his car following a dispute in her driveway. Gayle Potter was arguing with ex-husband Glenn Graeme Martyn in the driveway of her Traralgon home in October 2018 when she was struck by his SUV. Ms Potter’s partner, Dean Matzke, found her body lying on the ground before grabbing some towels, ringing triple zero and performing CPR for about 15 minutes until paramedics arrived. Ms Potter, who had two children with Mr Martyn and one with Mr Matzke, was pronounced dead at the scene. Her former husband was ordered to stand trial in the Supreme Court on charges of manslaughter, dangerous driving causing death and failing to stop a vehicle after an accident. The court heard Ms Potter and Mr Martyn, whom she divorced 11 years earlier, had a heated argument as she stood outside his car window in her driveway. The prosecution alleged Mr Martyn then drove forward and his rear driver-side wheel caught his ex-wife, causing her to get dragged under the car. Mr Martyn allegedly told his daughter over the phone Ms Potter hit his car and he didn’t know he struck her, with his defence barrister Peter Morrissey SC arguing Ms Potter caused the incident by going at him through his car window. Justice Christopher Beale upheld the defence’s case, last week striking out the first two charges after a doctor gave evidence that ordinary drivers have a reaction time between 1.5 to two seconds. “It is conceded by the prosecution that there is no evidence which would allow the jury to work out how long elapsed between the deceased grabbing hold of the accused’s shirt through the car window and her going under the car and suffering the fatal injuries,” the judge said. “It is the prosecution’s case that once she did grab hold of his shirt, the accused should have stopped the car, but there is simply no evidence which would enable a jury to find that more than two seconds elapsed between Ms Potter grabbing the accused’s T-shirt and her being crushed by the car.” As such, Justice Beale said a reasonable jury could not exclude the possibility Ms Potter had suffered the fatal injuries before Mr Martyn had time to react and stop the car. “Consequently, it would not be open to a reasonable jury to find that the driver was driving that can be characterised as criminally negligent or dangerous in the legal technical sense,” he said. With those charges thrown out, the jury deliberated on the lower offence of failing to stop a vehicle after an accident and returned a not guilty verdict on Thursday.

Lifeline calls for more funding

GREG

HANSFORD is your One Nation candidate for Gippsland

GP1639937

LIFELINE Gippsland is pleading for more government funding as the state budget is being handed down today with demand for crisis support almost doubling during the pandemic. Lifeline Gippsland chief executive officer Michelle Possingham said extra funding was vital to keep providing counselling services, with calls to its crisis line jumping 40 per cent post-COVID. “Our projections show these calls will remain steady. While we are concerned by these increasing calls, we are also happy people are reaching out when they need it,” Ms Possingham said. “But from a practical perspective, more calls means we need more people on phones to take these calls, and this comes at an enormous cost to train and recruit volunteers.” The plea comes as Member for Morwell Russell Northe put out a state budget wishlist asking for an extra $5.5 million for Lifeline Victoria. Ms Possingham said the extra funding would provide for more phones and IT, as well as professional support workers and qualified trainers at the Morwell centre. “The funding we currently get is not enough to cover the costs we already had pre-pandemic,” she said. “There is a misconception that because an organisation has a strong volunteer base, the cost of running is nil. Sitting behind our volunteers is a work force who make sure no one has to face their darkest moment alone.” Ms Possingham said Lifeline had previously received state government COVID support packages, with ongoing financial support from local businesses and community donations. “We would be lost without this support and would be potentially looking at closing our doors without this support,” she said. “It’s a constant battle to stay afloat but we will stay in the battle until we win the war.” Mental Health Minister James Merlino visited Lifeline Gippsland within the past six months to meet with its staff and understand the local issues. Mr Merlino said last year’s state budget had delivered an “unprecedented investment” in mental health and this year’s would be no different. It comes as the state government had announced a Gippsland Mental Health and Wellbeing Regional Body chairperson to guide government

VICTORIAN Police Eastern Region Division 5 staged a medal presentation at the Moe RSL last week. A number of Victorian Police members, and a member of the community received medals of courage and commendations for their action taken after being threatened by an assailant at close range, following an incident in Callignee in March 2016. Before presenting the commendations, Acting Assistant Commissioner Anthony Langdon spoke about how important these awards are not just for members of the Victorian Police, but also for the community. “The members receiving commendation tonight are the finest of our community and the community is thankful for that,” Asst Comm Langdon said. “I really do not know what it’s like in the field and really do appreciate your efforts,” he said. First Constable Leigh Thorpe and First Constable Whitney Sutton received a regional commendation for rescuing a man from a rock ledge at Peterson’s Lookout, Tyers in August 2021. Among the many service medals was the Victoria Police Service Medal 20-year clasps presented to the Victorian Public Service employees Michelle Dunstone, Rhonda Kelly and Dora Marino. The three women have been working for 20 years in administration at the Moe Police Station, all having started at the station within months of each other. Talking about her time with Victoria Police, Ms Marino said “it’s like one large family”. “It has been a pleasure watching over my ‘other’ sons over the last 20 years,’’ she said. An unnamed officer remarked “that everyone that has worked in the Moe (police) station knows about Dora and her 10.30am scones and appreciates all her efforts”.

He was extradited from the Gold Coast after being charged by Central Gippsland Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team detectives after a report was made to police in 2019. A committal hearing has been set for August 12, 2022, with Farmer on bail until he next appears at the Morwell court.

Poor form: A CCTV image of an offender breaking in to the Traralgon RSL on Anzac Day morning.

Traralgon RSL stung by the lowest of acts By MICHELLE SLATER

THE Traralgon RSL copped a blow in the wee hours of Anzac Day after a thief broke in to steal alcohol causing building damage in the process. Traralgon RSL manager Simon Martin described the theft as a “low act” on Anzac Day, as the committee was preparing for that morning’s dawn service. Victoria Police is reporting that an unknown man attended the Grey Street premises just before 3am and forced entry via a side door, stealing four bottles of alcohol worth $200. He ran from the scene, wearing a grey hooded jumper, grey track suit pants, black hat, black shoes and a mask covering his face. Mr Martin said the damage was worth about $1000 to replace the broken door and the committee had passed security footage to police. “It’s heartbreaking, we put a lot of time and effort into our veterans, and for people to come in and potentially ruin the day is terrible,” Mr Martin said. “It’s a low act. It doesn’t get much worse than that. It’s not only the most important day for the RSL, we also had to spend the morning preparing and securing the venue.” Anyone with information is being urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Never forgotten: WorkSafe Victoria representative Perdita Dickson lays a wreath at the International Workers Memorial Day.

Fallen workers remembered By JACI HICKEN

WORKERS, trade union representatives and the community came together to remember employees either sick from or killed at work at the International Workers Memorial Day event held at Gippsland Heritage Park last week. April 28 was not only Workers’ Memorial Day, but also World Day for Safety and Health at Work, with the theme, set by the International Labour Organisation, ‘act together to build a positive safety and health culture’. Attendees relished being able to get together and talk about workplace health and safety for the first time in two years. Associate Priest of the Parish of Traralgon Reverend Marilyn Obersby led an ecumenical service to remember workers lost in the workplace, with a minute’s silence. Guests reflected on workers that have tragically been lost as a result of workplace injuries or illness, with wreaths laid in remembrance. Asbestos Council of Victoria/GARDS chief executive officer Vicki Hamilton OAM expressed her admiration for the hard work of all workers in the past two years through the COVID pandemic. “We are here today to say that we will never forget those people who have lost their lives and because of them, we will continue to work tirelessly to improve workplaces and make them as safe as possible,” Ms Hamilton said. Of major concern to GARDS is the rise in young men contracting silicosis in the benchtop industry.

At the rostrum: Reverend Marilyn Obersby who conducted the ecumenical service.

“Young men in their early 20s and 30s who have contracted silicosis in the course of their work are emerging and as an industry it needs to repair and restructure itself,” Ms Hamilton said. “The amount of victims is on the increase for

silica disease; people need to stop buying trendy bench tops for their houses – they are killing workers.” Safe Work Australia data revealed 194 people were killed at work in 2020.

Morwell welcomes return of parade By JACI HICKEN

AFTER two years of scaled back Anzac Day commemorations, the weather in Morwell was perfect for the returning service men and women to parade down Tarwin Street. The parade was led by Jason Hunter, re-enacting a light horseman on the horse, Clayton Eureka Gold. Flag bearers, many of whom came from the Australian Air Force Cadets 242 Squadron-Morwell, as well as returning service men and women, and members of the Morwell Fire Brigade. The parade was led by the event’s guest speaker, British Army Reserves Captain Luke Townsend MBE MA and members of the Morwell RSL. As always, Morwell RSL treasurer Bill Hall led the commemorative service, as master of ceremonies. To pay their respects, 48 wreaths

were laid to remember those who have fallen when serving Australia in past conflicts, including the 1st and 2nd World Wars, Peacekeepers and Vietnam. In introducing the guest speaker, Mr Hall told the audience that Cpt Townsend, who is an active member of the British Army, is travelling to Windsor this week to receive his Member of the British Empire from The Queen. Cpt Townsend is receiving the MBE for his work helping to stamp down on illegal rhinoceros and elephant poaching in sub-Saharan Africa. Speaking to the 1000-strong crowd that had gathered, Cpt Townsend spoke of teamwork and the teamwork that many of the men and women had experienced together serving our nation.

Poppy display at St Michael’s BEFORE the school holidays, the students at St Michael’s Primary School had the opportunity to make a poppy to be used in an Anzac Day window display at the school. Students from Foundation level through to Grade 6 were involved in creating the poppies during Visual Art lessons. Art teacher Sue Hill said the children learnt about the significance of the poppy during these lessons and then each grade level used different materials and techniques to complete their artwork.

! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! GP1641396

The variety of poppies were made by using techniques and materials including collage, printing, paint and oil pastels. The poppies were displayed along a series of windows in Seymour Street, making the display visible to the public. The Grade 6 school captains were also given the opportunity to attend the Anzac Day service at the Traralgon cenotaph. The captains laid a wreath on behalf of the St Michael’s school community.

Family tribute: Fay Langstaff and her daughter Leesa lay a wreath for Jack Langstaff, who was a prisoner of war on the Thai Burma Railway.

news@lvexpress.com.au

Respect: Gippsland Order of Australia committee chair Lorraine Bartling lays a wreath at the cenotaph.

Service: 419 Prince of Wales Light Horsemen Sergeant Stuart Mather and Corporal Aaron Worcester.

Next generation: St Paul’s Anglican Grammar School students Aaron Patel, Isabella Slocombe and Nicholas Fenech carry on the tradition.

Large turnout at Traralgon parade MORE than 1500 people turned out to pay their respects to Australia’s diggers at the Traralgon Anzac Day mid-morning march last week. Traralgon RSL manager Simon Martin estimated it was the biggest turnout in about five-to-10 years with 63 floral wreaths being laid at the cenotaph after the past couple of years of COVID restrictions. Mr Martin said the march was wellrepresented by community members, veterans and school groups, who assembled in brilliant sunshine to parade down Franklin Street to the town’s cenotaph. “It’s our biggest day of the year for our vets to remember time with their mates. We were blown away by the community getting together like that,” Mr Martin said. “There was also a lot of support from local schools, when they get involved it’s a platform to spread the word. There were so many community groups wanting to show respect, this means a lot to us.” Proud military mum Sheryl English was able to take part in the march with both of her adult air force sons for the first time since they were cadets. Ms English was formerly an army Morse code operator with the 126 signal squadron in Western Australia, before moving back to

Victoria to raise her family and train cadets in Traralgon. Her son Terrance English is now a military

doctor in the 1 Expeditionary Health Squadron, while Steven had served as a pilot flying C130 Hercules in Iraq and Afghanistan.

“I’m so proud of my boys. I couldn’t be prouder to see them come through cadets and go into the careers they’ve chosen and be good at what they do,” she said. “The military is like a second family, they have your back and they still have today. I said go for it when my sons wanted to go into cadets.” Steven joined up when he was 18, and was later deployed to the Middle East, flying Special Forces in-and-out of hostile operations. He is now a flying instructor at East Sale. “I put all the training into practice when I was deployed to make a difference on the world stage. I learnt that a lot of countries can work together,” he said. “We worked closely with Denmark, the UK and Canada, we worked together as a coalition very well.” Terrance said the air force sponsored his medical training before he graduated in 2018 competing hospital and general practitioner training. He said he was now looking forward to using his skills in the field. “Having a direct purpose for my skills that serves more than myself is important to me,” he said. “I’m the newest defence member in the family, it’s good to take stock today and recognise what my family has achieved as a unit.”

Pride: Military family Terrance, Sheryl and Steven English march together.

Silence: A bugler plays the Last Post during the Traralgon Anzac Day service.

Attention: Traralgon air force cadets stand proudly at the Anzac service.

A SLIGHTLY foggy start to the day didn’t deter approximately 150 residents, past residents and visitors attending the Yallourn North Anzac Day service. Guest Speaker was past resident Sue Coats (from Hervey Bay), who spoke of her father Syd Barter’s military service. Also attending was Sue’s son Ian Moore from Brisbane who sang “I Was Only 19” and read a Tribute to the Anzacs. The students from Yallourn North Primary School lead the audience for the national anthem and the New Zealand national anthem with their teacher Sara Bonacci playing the bugle. Flag bearers were Graham Lougheed and Graeme Stancliffe. As COVID-19 had prevented morning teas to be held previously, the opportunity was quickly taken up by those attending the service for a cuppa and Anzac biscuit served by Lyn Cook and Polly De Agnoi.

Respect: Yallourn North Primary School representatives Olivia and Brodie.

Honour: The Australian flag flies high.

The Latrobe Valley Express, Wednesday, 4 May, 2022 — Page 21

HOROSCOPES by Joanne Madeline Moore May 2 - May 8, 2022 week, indulgent Venus transits into your sign, while the Sun, impulsive Mars and rash Uranus activate your cash zone. So you’re in the mood for a spontaneous spending spree. But is that such a smart idea? When it comes to financial matters, if you are patient then you’ll be able to capitalise on any lucky breaks that come your way. It’s all in the timing and preparation. Just remember, Rams, slow and steady wins the money race at the moment.

Taurus Steady Bulls love their dependable routines. But prepare to be jolted out of pedantic predictability as Mars and Uranus shake up your perfectly planned timetable in the most delightful way. So it’s a good time to rejuvenate your physical appearance, revise your goals for the next 12 months, and have plenty of fun! Heed the wise words of birthday great Audrey Hepburn, who was born on May 4, 1929: “The most important thing is to enjoy your life – to be happy.”

GGemini Avoid being a superficial Gemini. This week there’s a lot more going on beneath the surface than meets the eye. The Sun and Uranus encourage you to dive deep, listen and learn. The planets also boost creativity, compassion, confidence and motivation, especially at work. So get must-do tasks out of the way early, then do something that really makes your heart sing. As birthday great Audrey Hepburn said, “I believe, every day, you should have at least one exquisite moment.” Cancer Transformation is the name of the

game as Jupiter and Pluto boost your personal magnetism, and your ability to rise like a Phoenix from the ashes of a difficult situation. A close relationship has the potential to be reborn into a much more positive partnership. But you must release old grudges, let go of the past, and move into a bright new future. No sulking or side-stepppingg, Crabs! You’ll find the rigght words – spoken at the right time – can transform the lives of those around you.

Leo Thursday’s Sun/Uranus conjunction could spark a brilliant creative idea that shakes up your career or helps you find a new job. Be adventurous! Then Saturday’s Sun/Mars link boosts motivation, energy and self-confidence. Your motto for the moment is from Audrey Hepburn, who was born on May 4, 1929: “For beautiful eyes, look for the good in others; for beautiful lips, speak words of kindness; and for poise, walk with the knowledge that you are never alone.”

Virgo g This week you’re in a curious state of

mindd, as the Sun/Uranus conjunction creates a sudden opportunity involving international connections, travel, tourism, publishing, education or social media. So get your ideas out there on the world stage, as you inform and entertain others with your mercurial thoughts. Your motto for the moment is from writer (and fellow Virgo) Samuel Johnson: “Curiosity is one of the permanent and certain characteristics of a vigorous mind.”

Libra The focus is on physical health as Venus,

Mars, Jupiter and Neptune activate your wellbeing zone. So it’s a good time to shake up your daily routine, improve your diet, and find fun ways to boost your fitness levels. Professional progress is also a priority, as Jupiter and Pluto encourage you to power ahead with a challenging work project. (Nothing ventured, nothing gained!) Some singles will be attracted to a colleague, client or customer. Who said that work and romance don’t mix?

Youngsters produce a fine tribute

CHILDREN at Kylie’s Early Learning Centre in Morwell commemorated Anzac Day with the children making their own wreaths and printing poppies on ‘Lest we forget’ paper. Staff at the centre explained to the children about how people (and animals) went to war and fought for the freedom we have today. The children’s efforts were displayed across an Anzac Day banner strung across the centre’s walkway.

Respect: Zoey, Eamon, Zaiden, Kable, McKenna, Dustin, Ella and Killian.

Scorpio p This week Jupiter (planet of prosperrity and opportunity) makes a lovely link with your ruler, Pluto, and Venus visits your work zone. So Lady Luck is poised to knock on your door. The question is – are you brave enough and confident enough to let her in? Be inspired by film star, fashion icon and birthday great Audrey Hepburn: “Opportunities don’t often come along. So, when they do, you have to grab them.” Friendships and local community connections are also favoured.

Sagittarius g Innovative ideas and lighttning flashes of inspiration make for a thoughtprovoking week. But you could blurt out the most inappropriate comment to the most inappropriate person (probably a relative or work colleague). So take your foot out of your mouth and think before you speak! It’s also time to nurture and appreciate your best mates, as Venus visits your friendship zone. As birthday great Audrey Hepburn observed: “True friends are families which you can select.” Capricorn p Can you keep your Capricorn contrrol-freak tendencies under control this week? If you can, then you’ll astound and amaze others with your can-do attitude, natural personal authority, networking skills, creative ideas and talent for leadership. You’re ready, willing and able to work hard and help others. Just make sure you are generous and inclusive as you encourage family, close friends, work colleagues and community members to pull together and make things work.

Standing to attention: St Joseph’s Primary School principal Trish Mulqueen, student leaders Lily, Ethan Paul and Rubi Myrteza together with Sgt R.J Timmers, RAAC Army (ret).

Importance of Anzac Day highlighted

Aquarius q Jupiter and Pluto boost your

natuural Aquarian inclination to reach out and help others. If you put other people first – at home, work and play – then you’ll be rewarded with karmic credit and a warm inner glow. Your motto for the week is from birthday great, actress and humanitarian Audrey Hepburn: “As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, the other for helping others.” Watch out for a tendency to overspend on the weekend.

Headwear: Student Odin Treyvaud pictured wearing the slouch hat.

Pisces Jupiter boosts good luck and your

confidence levels go through the roof. So it’s time to think big, especially when it comes to your hopes and dreams for the future. Pluto also helps you power ahead with personal changes that have the potential to transform your life in wonderful ways. You must be a persistent Pisces, though! Your mantra for the week is from Harry Truman (born on May 8, 1884): “You can always amend a big plan, but you can never expand a little one.”

Together: Students gathered for the Trafalgar march. photographs supplied

A NUMBER of the students at St Joseph’s Primary School in Trafalgar participated in the Trafalgar RSL Anzac Day march and service. Two of the student leaders laid a wreath at the cenotaph on behalf of the school community. Back at school, the students and teachers participated in a school Anzac Day service where The Last Post was played. The students sang our national anthem with meaning and patriotism. It was especially moving. The school also had a guest speaker visit from Sgt R.J Timmers, 353695 RAAC Army (ret). Sgt Timmers (ret) talked about his experience in the army. He came dressed in his uniform and he explained the different parts of it. Sgt Timmers (ret) showed the students and teachers how to stand to attention, salute and march. He helped the students to understand the importance of Anzac Day.

Special rememBEARance campaign

Support: Chairman of Legacy Australia Legatee Eric Easterbrook, Legacy Australia chief executive Graham Boyd and Defence Family Advocate of Australia and Sandi Laaksonen-Sherrin, with Jack, holding the Legacy Bears. photograph supplied

ON Anzac Day, Defence Families of Australia (DFA) worked with Legacy Australia and marketing partner RSL Australia to recognise and honour the strength, sacrifice and service of Defence families. As part of the RememBEARance campaign, those attending Anzac Day commemoration events were encouraged to lay a small teddy bear beside their wreath to acknowledge veterans, current serving members and their families. DFA purchased Legacy Bears for its employees to lay with a poppy remembrance wreath at Anzac Day Ceremonies around Australia. If the public chose to lay a Legacy Bear, they helped to raise funds for Legacy Australia to support the families of veterans, reducing instances of financial or social hardship. Legacy Australia chairman Legatee Eric Easterbrook said that this was an easy initiative to support, but had a big impact in commemorating our veterans and their families. “Laying a teddy, such as the Legacy Bear, with a wreath was a beautiful symbol to help

commemorate the sacrifices that our military families make for our country,” he said. RSL Australia was supportive of those who placed a tribute bear at commemorative services on Anzac Day. “Families are essential to supporting a stronger Australian Defence Force,” Defence Family Advocate of Australia spokesperson Sandi Laaksonen-Sherrin said. “Our defence capability thrives when families are valued and supported during and following their military service. “We hope this campaign will give defence and veteran families the recognition they deserve, but don’t always get, for their secondhand service to our nation by supporting their ADF member.” This partnership between Legacy, RSL and DFA is an example of a positive collaboration between agencies which support and pay respect to veterans, current serving members and their families.

YINNAR held its first Anzac Day dawn service under an illuminated town cenotaph, with the local RSL hopeful the heritage-listed statue will sparkle under lights every night. Yinnar RSL hall upgrade committee member Gareth Peters said the 102 year-old cenotaph was only three of its kind in Victoria, depicting a soldier holding a bugle crafted by a Geelong stonemason. Mr Peters said it was important for the cenotaph to be lit-up each night as a town centrepiece that honoured local families who went off to war. “It should be on display at all hours and be held in esteem by all locals. We are the custodians of it. There are quite a few families still in the area,” Mr Peters said. “In these smaller towns, not only did the father go, but the sons went as well, all the males in the family went off to war.” The cenotaph was put up in Yinnar in 1920, just three years after the end of World War I. The town then rallied to get its RSL hall built in the 1950s in the aftermath of World War II. Mr Peters said the hall was undergoing some upgrades to encourage locals to hire it out for a small fee, which would then be put back into the building’s maintenance. He said the Yinnar RSL was also planning to hold informal barbecues to meet new returned service people in the area. “We are aware there are a lot of returned vets in the area from recent conflicts and we welcome them to become a part of the Yinnar group,” he said. “There are a lot of returned service men who are not involved, we just want to keep in touch with those who have returned.”

Fine legacy of a wonderful wordsmith

By OLWEN FORD

NOTED writer Prue McGoldrick, nee Hyett, died at Paynesville on February 11, 2022, aged 96. She began her life with her twin sister Mary, at St Andrew’s Hospital, King Edward Avenue, Sunshine. Her parents were Agnes Elvira Hyett, nee O’Sullivan, and J. S. (Sam) Hyett. One of seven children, including three sets of twins, Prue spent the first quarter of her life in Sunshine. She wrote brilliantly about her childhood years in her book My Paddock, published in 1994. The title of her earlier book, When The Whistle Blew: A Social History of The Town of Sunshine 1920-1950, published 1989, reflected her experience of growing up in Sunshine, amid the whistles of factories and steam trains. The Hyetts were a large clan in Sunshine. Prue’s grandfather Jacob Hyett and his family were part of that remarkable migration of H. V. McKay and his workers from Ballarat to Sunshine and Footscray in the early 20th century. Prue’s mother was a schoolteacher, born in New Zealand, who met and married Jacob Hyett while he was working there as a miner. She was descended from Irish settlers while his ancestors were Irish convicts. The young couple moved to Sunshine in 1922 and bought a cottage in First Avenue, near Wright Street. Jacob worked at Darlings’ Flour Mill in the early 1920s, and then at McKay’s Sunshine Harvester Works as a welder, developing the use of oxygen and acetylene, but working on reduced hours during the Depression. Prue wrote later: “Despite the Depression, there was joy in our lives ...”. Her family had a productive veggie garden and orchard, chooks, and two cows (kept in a leased paddock nearby and brought home to milk).

PRUE McGOLDRICK (nee Hyatt) July 26, 1925 to February 11, 2022

Jacob Hyett caught yabbies, fish, rabbits and game, while Agnes Hyett produced freshly-baked bread, homemade butter, lemon cordial, rabbit in pies, or stewed, roasted, fried, as well as steamed puddings, jams, pickles, sauces and countless sandwiches. Well-educated Agnes was also a lover of words. She ‘kept her sanity’ by reading and attending a monthly ‘Readers’ Circle’. Prue and her twin sister Mary attended Our Lady’s Catholic Primary School, Sunshine from 1931, up to Grade 8. For three years (1939-42) they went to

Catholic Ladies College in Grey Street, East Melbourne. Prue enjoyed her time there, but later expressed the pain of growing up Catholic in Sunshine. In an introduction to The Story of Our Lady’s, Sunshine 1927-1987, she recalled ‘the bigotry that existed in those early days ... There was a ghetto mentality and Catholics tended to live apart.’ At one point, Prue was active in the National Catholic Girls Movement and on the national executive. On leaving school, Prue and Mary began working for Forest Products CSIR, in South Melbourne, testing timber for aircraft. They worked day and evening shifts, alternate weeks. It was wartime. They also attended evening classes, including classes at Melbourne Technical College (later RMIT). Prue did engineering drawing and Val McGoldrick, an engineer, was the instructor. In 1949, they married, living initially at Moonee Ponds. They had two sons and moved to Yallourn, where Val had a job with the State Electricity Commission. By 1955, they had a family of four children James, Bernard, Anne and Damien. They lived in Yallourn for 28 years, becoming active and involved in the local community. Prue was active in school, church, the Catholic Women’s Service League and part-time teaching. In her 40s, she studied at the Gippsland College of Advanced Education and matriculated. A photo taken in 1967 shows her in uniform as Superintendent of the Yallourn Red Cross. She began working as a journalist with the Latrobe Valley Express and in 1979, Gippsland Printers published her centenary history of Morwell, Steam horse to power - a history of Morwell town. When the town of Yallourn came to an

end, about 1980, the McGoldricks moved to Paynesville. Prue wrote Yallourn was ... a history of the town, worked for the Bairnsdale Advertiser and began preparing When the Whistle Blew, commissioned by the Sunshine City Council. Later, she donated her research material to Sunshine & District Historical Society and lodged manuscripts with the State Library of Victoria. In 1996, she wrote a history of St Patrick’s Church, Paynesville. Her book Jaberanda: Living in the Twentieth Century appeared in 2001. The title Jaberanda came from the first letters of her four children’s names. Her 13 grandchildren saw her as ‘technologically savvy’, a ‘super granny’ and appreciated her competence with digital camera and computer, her adventurous cooking and her humour. Prue’s husband Val suffered from Alzheimer’s and died in 2006. Her last years were spent in Paynesville Gardens Community Care. Prue died peacefully at Paynesville on February 11, 2022 and is buried at Paynesville Cemetery. Hard working, a meticulous reader who carefully cited her sources, Prue had a talent with words. Like her cousin Jack Hyett, a noted naturalist, teacher and writer, she loved nature. Honest and forthright, she was not afraid to speak her mind at times. She was humble and generous, and gave valuable help to Sunshine & District Historical Society through serving on a review panel, with Associate Professor Don Gibb, for the Society’s publication Harvester Town and Harvester City. Prue spent most of her life in Gippsland, though she never forgot her early years. Her books, including those on Morwell, Yallourn, and St Patrick’s Paynesville, are a lasting legacy. She is remembered with great affection by Gippsland people who knew her.

Brushing up on Hazelwood’s fabulous history A NEW exhibition at Latrobe Regional Gallery (LRG) reflects on the role the iconic Hazelwood Power Station had in the lives of Latrobe City locals over several generations. The feature piece is an eight-metre painting depicting the history of the power station from its farmland origins to its 1994 heyday and its imagined future, donated by Hazelwood owner ENGIE in 2020. Painted by then resident of Morwell River Prison, Jenardiy Zabenko, the artwork features images of well-known local identities and workers of the time. Two of those workers, David Addis and Scott Gillespie, star in video interviews as part of the exhibition. Historic material from State Electricity Commission films, newsletters, drawings, photographs and diagrams sourced from Morwell Historical Society, Gippsland Regional Studies Centre and PowerWorks are also on display. The exhibition includes three Kerrie Warren paintings commissioned by Hazelwood Power Station in 1998. LRG will host a free afternoon tea for former workers and their families on Thursday, May 5 from 12 noon. A conversation about Hazelwood and Latrobe City will take place at the gallery on Saturday, June 25 from 2pm. The talk will focus on the industrial history of Morwell, how the community was built and what we can do to preserve the memory of important heritage sites in years to come. Chaired by Erik Eklund, Professor of History at Gippsland Campus of Federation University, speakers include PowerWorks chairman Darryl White OAM and former Hazelwood engineer Clarke Spencer. The exhibition runs until July 10, 2022. “The Hazelwood Power Station held a special place in the hearts and minds of Latrobe City residents over the course of many years,” Latrobe City Mayor Kellie O’Callaghan said. “This exhibition offers a look at the history of the power station and its influence in our community.”

From Smith Street to Kay Street By MICHELLE SLATER

MELBOURNE indie rockers The Smith Street Band will be stopping off in the Latrobe Valley to play a live gig in Traralgon this week as part of a regional tour. The raw rock ‘n’ roll four-piece is heading to Gippsland for the first time since forming about 10 years ago. Guitarist Lee Hartney spoke to The Express as the Smithies were setting up for a gig in Hepburn amid recording a sixth studio album from the band’s off-grid studio in Daylesford. The studio – which adjoins the Wombat State Forest – is lucky to be still standing after being hit by the June storms last year. “We were actually debating whether to get some trees cut down to get more sun on our solar panels, then the storm came,” Lee said. “Right where the house is, there was one channel of where the wind came but luckily the house was hit minimally by one tree. “One of the friends of the band is a carpenter and is clearing the fallen timber on our property to mill and sell.” The band had recorded its 2020 Don’t Waste Your Anger album in the Bush House, before the record hit number one on the ARIA charts. The Smithies have also won a swag of Australian Independent Record Awards, and have played as the opening act to Midnight Oil in the United States and performed with the Brisbane Symphony Orchestra. The band is now hitting the road before heading back in to the studio to finish off the latest offering. Lee said the regional tour was one way to help navigate touring in a pandemic, after facing snap border closures and cancelled gigs in the past couple of years. “We are guaranteed to get a gig somewhere in Victoria and we won’t lose accommodation, it’s a little less risky booking shows. So many gigs get cancelled a week before,” he said. “Going anywhere new is a bit risky, but hopefully this means more bands will head out there and will come back to play if people come out to see them.” The Smith Street Band is playing an 18-plus show at the Kay Street Entertainment precinct in Traralgon, Friday, May 6. To book, visit Eventbrite.

The Guide GARDENING AUSTRALIA ABC TV, Friday, 7.30pm

Birds of a feather: Reggie Bird, who won Big Brother in 2003, returns to the hit reality series.

You may be a late bloomer to gardening, or perhaps you’re a seasoned green thumb; whatever you are, this long-running series sows a seed in viewers’ hearts. For some it’s the beguiling nature of big-bearded host Costa Georgiadis (pictured), for others it’s the no-fail, straightforward tips and tricks, but once you’ve dug into this show, your Friday night roots are firmly planted. Your future might even involve your own personal egg supply after being inspired by Costa and Millie Ross’s homemade chook run tonight. RAILROAD AUSTRALIA 7TWO, Sunday, 8.30pm

You needn’t be a Thomas the Tank Engine fanatic to be a zealous viewer of this series. You need only glimpse the fabulous scenery and aerial photography to admire this local doco, which is enjoying an encore on Seven from the Discovery Channel where it was the highest-rating local series in the channel’s history. It’s essentially a big story about logistics, with our landscape the entrancing backdrop. This week, Bernie Baker’s (pictured) streamliner festival is on track for calamity. THE FAMILY COURT MURDERS ABC TV, Tuesday, 8.30pm

PICK OF THE WEEK BIG BROTHER Seven, Monday, 7.30pm

If you thought you were done and dusted with Big Brother this lifetime, think again. In a turn of events almost too exciting for fans to process without breaking into a Sara-Marie-style bum dance, this new season features well-known past contestants. Besides the fact the reality TV pioneer is returning for its 14th season on its third TV network, it’s certainly a sign of a love when past housemates agree to rendez-vous for the mind games and food rationing once again. Among the series’ 21 housemates, the “royalty” includes 2003 winner Reggie Bird, 2004 winner Trevor Butler, farmer Dave Graham (2006) and 2013’s controversial lovebirds Anthony Drew and Tully Smyth. Prepare for an awesome twist.

If you’re feeling like nothing commands your attention, diving head-first into a true crime case that shocks you to the core could be the solution. Here, you can cast aside entry-level, one-episode shenanigans with a full-speed, fourepisode investigation by journalist and writer Debi Marshall (pictured). Based on her acclaimed book on the subject, Marshall lives and breathes the Family Court Murders, which involved a campaign of terror by one man, including a series of bombings and shootings in the ’80s that killed four people.

WHAT IS REQUIRED TO CREATE SAFE, STABLE AND SUSTAINABLE CONDITIONS AFTER MINING CEASES?

there are significant sustainability questions to be resolved. We saw in article 2 that the combined volume of void to be filled to the lowest level of the Mine void perimeter would require 2,900 Mm3 or 2,900 Gl of water. To provide some perspective on this volume of water, the Sydney Harbour is estimated to contain approximately 500 Mm3 or 500 Gl of water. Alternatively, according to Melbourne Water’s website, the total volume of Melbourne’s 10 water storages contains 1,812 Gl of water with the Thompson Dam dominating with 1,068 Gl. So, we would need more water than all of Melbourne’s water storages, if they were full!!!!

COMMENT By RICHARD POLMEAR

THIS is the third article in a series of four. The first article covered the Geology of the Latrobe Valley. The second article covered the “Impacts from Mining” in which we learnt: 1. Digging any hole creates horizontal relaxation which can lead to individual batter [1] destabilisation. 2. The predominate “highly dispersive” clays overlying the brown coal deposits can also lead to individual batter destabilisation. 3. The local groundwater table is lowered by mining which creates conditions where water ingress into coal batters may precipitate movement. 4. Slopes at the bottom of coal and the immediate underlying material properties can have a significant impact on batter stability. The properties of the immediately underlying material can be significantly adversely impacted by water saturation and make a stable batter unstable. 5. The need to maintain a balance between aquifer pressures and the weight of overlying materials is fundamentally important to floor and batter stability at Hazelwood and Loy Yang voids. There is no such issue at Yallourn. Aquifer levels will increase over time once pumping ceases. In this article we will discuss what is required to create safe, stable and sustainable conditions after mining ceases.

Safe:

WHETHER the post rehabilitated mine void is accessible by the public or not, there are minimum standards required by legislation. All areas above the water level (which if it is dry will include the floor of the mine void) must be maintained in a state to minimise the spread of fire. This will require slopes to be accessible for slashing. This is generally recognised as requiring a slope of three units horizontal to one unit vertical to be safely tractorable. Where any of the batters contain exposed coal, this will need to be effectively covered to prevent fire from getting established. We have seen and experienced how difficult it can be to extinguish a fire if it gets a hold in an area that does not have an existing highly reticulated fire protection system. It is important to ensure that our environment is not adversely impacted by toxicity, including but not limited to:  Water quality where water bodies are created within the mine voids,  Groundwater and aquifer contamination,  Run-off to local waterways, and  Soil contamination. Protection is enforced against these adverse outcomes under CFA, WorkSafe and EPA Regulations. There are likely to be some residual issues from work practices that were deemed acceptable prior to our current state of Regulations. Some of these residual matters

could be problematic to manage in perpetuity. They are more likely to reside at the older sites of Yallourn and Hazelwood.

Stable:

THE second article in this series dealt with the impacts of mining most of which involved potential conditions to create instability. So, it shouldn’t be surprising that managing these impacts, by:  Ensuring floor weight balance by either continued dewatering of artesian aquifers by pumping or placing sufficient weight on the mine floor to counterbalance these pressures,  Ensuring water pressure differentials in mine walls are minimised, even during high rainfall events (requires maintained drainage and horizontal bore/s [2] as a minimum),  Providing toe supports[ 3], minimising driving loads[4], or any combination of these for batters where adverse physical conditions suggest that a batter can become unstable with water ponding [5], and  Minimising rapid large changes in any water levels within any mine void (they are not ideal for pumped hydro without compensating works).

Sustainable:

THE sites of all three mine voids are within the catchment of the Latrobe River system. Presently there are structures in place so that each mine catches as little rainfall as is reasonably practical. These structures are in place to divert as much water away from the voids so as to avoid the costs of storing, pumping out excess water and treatment of that water which picks up suspended solids, colour and particles, on its journey to the bottom of the void. Excess water is treated and returned to the river system at EPA licenced discharge points which have discharge parameters that need to be met. There is considerable monitoring to ensure discharges are within the licence parameters. Effectively, all rainfall into the voids is ultimately discharged to the Latrobe River system less any evaporation losses during its storage and treatment phases. Not all rainfall runs to a river system and

ultimately to the sea. There is a difference between the volume of rainfall and the volume of run-off as some rainfall is:  Absorbed into the ground, recharging local groundwater tables and some recharges aquifers, depending on where their gravels and sands can be intercepted by the run-off. The amount of absorption is dependent upon the slope of the land, vegetation type and length, permeability of the surface on which the rainfall lands e.g., concrete paving, home roofing compared to ploughed level ground.  Is evaporated when it lands on warm to hot surfaces.  Rainfall, run-off and evaporation are not constant, and the degree of variability is likely to increase due to our changing climate. Any mine owner that proposes to hold any water in their mine void is effectively seeking to divert a portion of the Latrobe River catchment to service their plan. There are reasons why this may be a good solution but there are other pieces of the puzzle that need to be factored into this consideration: 1. The current power stations use substantial volumes of water that are captured from the Latrobe River system. With Power Station closures that committed water resource becomes available for other uses. 2. Others have rights to access water from the Latrobe River system and we certainly shouldn’t commit all future water to a single use. At the Mine Fire Inquiry following the February 2014, Hazelwood Mine Fire the matter of mine void rehabilitation and some of the complexities received a public airing. Subsequently the State Government established the Latrobe Valley Regional Rehabilitation Strategy (LVRRS) which undertook a series of studies to provide a framework to assist decision making in this critical area and established the Mine Land Rehabilitation Authority (MLRA). In the early days it was strongly advocated that the best technical solution to solving these problems was the flooding of every mine void. Whilst there is significant technical merit in this suggestion from a stability perspective

What have we learnt about the creation of safe, stable and sustainable conditions after mining ceases?

1. For all surfaces above water level the land is to be safely accessible for maintenance and fire prevention works. 2. Exposed coal surfaces will need to be covered to prevent coal fire from being initiated. 3. Ensure our environment is not adversely impacted by toxicity although there may be some residual matters that maybe difficult to manage into perpetuity at the older sites. 4. All of the stability related impacts from mining (article 2) will need to be managed in addition to preventing large rapid changes in water levels within mine voids. The most important of these (due to scale of impact) is the maintenance of sufficient weight to counterbalance aquifer pressures. 5. The most significant sustainability issue is access to sufficient volumes of sustainable water even without acknowledging the rights of others to access Latrobe River water in future.

NOTES

[1] A batter is the sloped section of the pit wall. It can be either an individual batter (slope) between benches or the overall slope of all the individual batters and benches. A bench is a near level surface used for access and the running of services. [2] A horizontal bore is a hole, generally into an individual batter, that slopes gently upwards from the outlet to be free draining. [3] Toe support is generally dirt placed at the bottom of a batter to increase friction and help stabilise a batter. [4] Driving loads are excessive weight on which gravity acts to reduce the stability of a batter. [5] Water ponding is water sitting at the bottom of a batter which may lower friction and make a batter less stable. Richard Polmear is a member of Great Latrobe Park. He is a former mine engineering manager and director of mining at Hazelwood with 34 years of employment in the industry.

LOOKING BACK THROUGH THE YEARS MORWELL FIRM WINS GIPPSLAND BUSINESS TITLE

By GREGOR MACTAGGART

WELCOME to the latest instalment of Looking Back Through The Years. Here’s what was making news in the pages of The Express during these points of our proud history.

Morwell firm Valley Windows is the Gippsland Business of the Year. The Gippsland Business Awards were announced at a gala dinner in Traralgon on Friday night, attended by more than 400 people and hosted by Rod Quantock. Valley Windows won the overall award, sponsored by Federation Health, as well as the Manufacturing/Export category. There were 41 finalists in 10 industry awards, with many LV firms recognised for making the finals.

STRONG PROTEST LIKELY ON RIVER DIVERSION

There will be strong opposition to any government move to divert headwaters of the Latrobe River to the Mornington Peninsula. This was made clear at a meeting in Traralgon last week of 110 representatives of Latrobe Valley city and shire councils, statutory authorities, state government departments, private industry and stream diverters.

SZABO KICKS 14 AS ROOS RUN UP CRICKET SCORE

AIRFIELD LIGHT WORK SOON

Work will start within the next few weeks on the installation of airport lighting at the Latrobe Valley airfield. A meeting of the Latrobe Valley Airfield Advisory Committee last Friday decided to proceed with the project so long as the costs do not exceed $8000.

YALLOURN WINS AT HOME

Yallourn coach Alex Bathgate tried out a new idea against Mooroolbark on Saturday in Division One metropolitan soccer and it paid off in what was a real crowd pleaser. Bathgate’s 3-3-4 system, which is an all-attacking formula, brought the best out of Yallourn and Mooroolbark as they fought all the way to the final whistle. The final score, a 1-0 win to Yallourn. FUN FACT: A five-piece Rio Converter lounge sweet could be yours for $189 from K.W Steele’s three big stores in Newborough, Traralgon or Morwell. 40 YEARS AGO TUESDAY, MAY 4, 1982

OFFICERS’ ROW: STAFF UNION ACTS

Traralgon City Council may call a special council meeting this week to discuss its executive staff problems and resolutions from the City Office staff. The resolutions were adopted last Thursday at a meeting of Municipal Officers Association members at the City Officers and have been followed up by an official letter to council from the union.

WORKERS VOTE IN LOY YANG SITE AGREEMENT

Building trades unions working at Loy Yang have voted to accept the terms of a new site agreement. The building trades move follows acceptance by metal trades unions at Loy Yang of a similar agreement. The new agreement includes two pay and allowance increases, which, according to the SEC, total about $50 a week at the carpenter level, with proportionate increases for all other classifications.

BULLDOGS BREAK THROUGH FOR A WIN

Newborough’s fighting eight-point win over neighbours Moe and Morwell’s five-goal victory over Leongatha provided the highlights of Round 5 in Latrobe Valley football last Saturday. The Bulldogs put the writing on the wall for their long-awaited win with improved performances in recent weeks. Their morale received a boost when their reserves opened their winning account for the season and it was apparent from the opening bounce that Newborough were pulling out all stops for their first victory in nine matches. With Neil Hunt showing the way in dashing style, Ross Shipp winning at centre-half-forward and Leo Knowles doing well in the centre, they were able to maintain pressure on the Lions all day, ultimately winning 12.17 (89) to 11.14 (80). FUN FACT: A 750ml bottle of Smirnoff Vodka would have set you back $10.49 at the Morwell Co-op Supermarket on the corner of Hazelwood and Ann streets. 30 YEARS AGO FRIDAY, MAY 1, 1992

BIG JOBS LOSS IN ONE-UNION SCHEME

Between 500 and 1000 existing Latrobe Valley power workers could lose their jobs within three years. In a leaked report to The Express, the SEC reveals its plan to follow Mission Energy’s lead for a ‘single union’, which could save the SEC up to $24 million per annum, losing anything up to a 1000 workers in the process. Using Mission’s work practices as a model, the SEC hopes to save $5 million on overtime reduction, $7.5 million on maintenance support personnel, $8 million on operation manning reduction and $3.5 million on management overheads.

APM PLANS IN JEOPARDY - MP

APM Maryvale’s $154 million expenditure plans are in jeopardy as the federal government’s forest resource security bill lies ‘‘dead in the water’’ in the Senate. The Coalition will oppose the Forest Conservation and Development Bill, when it is voted on in the Senate either today, Monday or Tuesday.

FIRST CLASS FIRST ROUND ENCOUNTER

A top class game of country interleague football is guaranteed when the Latrobe Valley meets Ballarat at Warragul. The LVFL side selected was as follows: B: P Helms (captain), I Bowman, A Gravener HB: G Collins, K Rainsford, M Cameron C: P Rowe, D Cunningham, N Mildenhall HF: T Lane, A Bond, B Szabo F: J Stevenson, C Kernick, D Read FOLL: M Cunico, B Sparks, G Morley INT: G Webster, G Harrington, A Bromage, J Dear.

PUBLIC HOUSING PLAN FOR REFUGEES

Latrobe City councillor Tony Hanning will tonight fight to have the Latrobe Valley opened to asylum seekers currently housed in Australian detention centres. At tonight’s council meeting in Moe, Cr Hanning will move a resolution - dubbed the Welcome Towns proposal - calling on the state government to volunteer the region’s public housing for refugees. It follows community anger at the conditions at several of the detention centres, in particular Woomera and Port Hedland.

Brett Szabo made an impressive return to North Gippsland football on Saturday with a 14-goal haul for Heyfield in their 250-point demolition of Gormandale. The Roos finished the match winning 42.16 (268) to 2.6 (18). Szabo headed the list of 11 goalkickers, with Gerard Kennedy slotting nine goals in a fine performance. Other winners were TTU, Glengarry and Churchill. FUN FACT: A three-bedroom brick veneer home in great Newborough location was on sale for $75,000 with John Kerr & Associates. 10 YEARS AGO THURSDAY, MAY 3, 2012

BUDGET SHOCKWAVE

Gippsland could lose two of its major TAFE campuses following the release of what has been described as a ‘‘shameful’’ state budget. A funding slash of more than $100 million from TAFEs across the state has prompted Central Gippsland Institute of TAFE to ‘‘prepare for the worst”. As a result of funding cuts, the institute’s Morwell and Leongatha campuses could close, according to GippsTAFE general manager of corporate services Jim Vivian, who said the institute would bear the brunt of a $7-10 million revenue loss up to January next year.

MORE FEARS FOR WORKERS

Fears Latrobe Valley workers will be ‘‘left in the lurch’’ have intensified following news this week Energy Brix briquette operations are being ‘‘reviewed’’, leaving 300 local jobs hanging in the balance. Managing director of Mecrus, contracted to manufacture briquettes at Energy Brix, Barry Richards, told The Express the local business could soon become ‘‘collateral damage’’ of the carbon tax.

PEGS FLY HIGH TO VICTORY

Morwell Pegasus has pulled off one of the ‘‘best wins’’ in the soccer club’s history according to coach Stan Webster. Last Sunday, the State League Division Two team ran home to beat Victorian Premier League side and 2011 champions Northcote City 2-0 in the fourth round of the Victorian State Cup. Webster said his side has the ability to ‘‘mix it’’ with the best sides in the competition. FUN FACT: The Gippsland Rotary Golf Classic raised more than $28,000 for local charities.

Time to give the other lot a go ..... SEVERAL myths have been busted so far in this election campaign by the RMIT truth checker and printed in The Age newspaper. For one, the myth that the ALP has always been higher taxing is debunked. The greatest percentage of tax as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was from the Howard government at 23.4 per cent, followed by this present government first elected in 2013 at 22.3 per cent, compared to the Rudd-Gillard years of 21.8 per cent. As well, unemployment averaged 5.1 per cent under Rudd-Gillard compared to an average of 5.7 per cent since 2013. Except for the Hawke-Keating years, Labor governments have had slightly lower interest rates as well. I’d conclude that Labor does know how to manage the economy and that ScoMo is trying to gaslight us every time he speaks about this. Then we have the latest furore of national security. While Peter Dutton and the PM have been talking up how tough they are with China, the Chinese have snuck under the radar and have established a security pact with the Solomon Islands. Highly predictable, as ever since Tony Abbott was PM, the LNP governments have slashed foreign aid to the Pacific nations and elsewhere, while at the same time shunning them on the issue that matters most to them - climate change and the consequent rising sea levels. To compound matters our present Defence Minister Peter Dutton was even caught joking about this with our present PM in 2015. Clearly, our diplomacy has failed Australia in the last 10 years and we need to spend more on our embassies in the Pacific. We also see the French, who have territories – New Caledonia and Tahiti in the Pacific, being humiliated with the “French submarines cancellation” fiasco. It will probably take a change of government to see the French start cooperating with security in the Pacific again. If you vote for the Coalition this time, you are simply agreeing that the failures and mistruths of ScoMo and the LNP don’t matter. In truth they do. It’s time to give the other lot a go. Dan Caffrey, Traralgon

Short memories

I WRITE in response to Brian Mawhinney’s amusing letter in last week’s The Express (Opinion, April 20), specifically in response to his question: “when did a Labor federal government sit through drought, bushfires, floods, a pandemic, and war in their term of office?” It was such a brazenly political question that I thought it deserved an answer in return. Surprisingly, after a short half hour of research online, I discovered that the answer to Brian’s question is: the Rudd-Gillard government! The Rudd-Gillard Labor federal government was in power from 2007 to 2013. During that time, we had the peak of the Millennium Drought in 2009. That same year also saw the terrible Black Saturday bushfires, one of the worst in Australia’s history. A year after that, we had massive floods all across the eastern coast in Queensland, New South Wales, and Victoria. As for pandemics, it seems that most people

have already forgotten the H1N1 influenza outbreak in 2009. While it was no COVID-19, I suspect the reason we have moved on so quickly is because it was managed far more effectively than what we’ve become used to these days. I also learned that our federal health minister at the time actually won an award commending her for her handling of the H1N1 outbreak! I thought I was stumped with the war part, but then I remembered that Australia actually had troops on the ground in Afghanistan throughout the Rudd-Gillard government. They also made the decision to bring our troops in Iraq home in 2008, which I’m sure many would agree was a sensible decision. I didn’t end up getting through the rest of Brian’s letter, but I’m hopeful that it was as insightful and well-researched as this question was. Tom Bulmer, Churchill

Building industry’s value to Victoria highlighted

WITH our state experiencing a building and construction boom, the reliance on our sector to keep the Victorian economy growing has never been more important. However, many building and construction businesses are struggling from the crippling effects of supply chain problems, large price hikes in key materials such as timber and steel, limited land availability, a fragmented planning system, a shortage of skilled tradespeople and the ongoing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. Since early 2021, Master Builders Victoria (MBV) has consistently raised awareness of the supply chain issues impacting our industry. As such, MBV welcomes the Victorian Government’s response to the supply chain challenges by the Commissioner for Better Regulation and Red Tape Commissioner, Anna Cronin, where it supported nine out of 10 key recommendations. However, MBV is disappointed that the Victorian government has not supported a measure to allow builders to share some of these cost increases with clients. MBV continues to advocate to find solutions to supply and skills shortages to ensure that Victoria maintains a strong building and construction industry and supports our state’s post-COVID economic recovery. In our submission to the 2022-23 Victorian State Budget, MBV has focused on sustainable economic recovery measures as everyone continues to navigate this pandemic.

An apology and some further discussion

AN apology to all Delburn wind farm supporters, and opponents, After my open letter to Richard Wynne, the state Planning Minister was published last week in The Express (Opinion, April 20), much discussion and, criticism has been voiced. And so it should. That’s how democracy is supposed to work. After all, this rushed approval, just two days after the Supreme Court’s ruling on the Bald Hills wind farm was released, affecting that community. I and many others think this issue should be considered more carefully and openly discussed by all residents affected by this decision who live in this area, and not just by those who want to undo decisions made in the 1920s to mine coal in the Latrobe Valley, nor those who live in Melbourne, who want the Latrobe Valley to continue being a source of electricity generation. And we who live in the Latrobe Valley, certainly don’t want to find ourselves in the same situation as the Moyne Shire residents (Warrnambool) where wind farms were installed in that Shire, without any real or meaningful consultation with them! The reason for this second open letter is, I owe you all an apology.

We have asked the Victorian government to:  Support the future of our industry by reducing the regulatory burden and duplication.  Place greater urgency on the Victorian Planning Authority to lead, develop, and deliver a pipeline of state-led land releases across Victoria, with an initial focus on Wodonga, Geelong, Ballarat, and Bendigo.  Eliminate stamp duty and replace it with a more broad-based land tax to encourage households to upsize and downsize, benefiting both home buyers and the Victorian economy.  To provide tax relief for building and construction businesses – many of whom are small businesses. These measures will ensure that our sector and Victoria’s economy will thrive for many years to come. However, in the meantime, and during these continuing unprecedented times, we encourage consumers to be kind and patient with builders – everyone is doing their best in some exceptionally challenging circumstances. Rebecca Casson, Master Builders Victoria chief executive officer

AKZ is locally owned employs local people Committed to Quality. Delivering Excellence.

Since my previous letter was published, many supporters of the Delburn wind farm project have criticised my statement ‘that only 250 homes will have sufficient power it may or may not provide.’ Well after visiting the OSMI website, and searching … “how much electricity will the Delburn wind farms create?” … there were ‘no results’ found for my obvious and important question. Try it yourself. And after doing so, you too may question why an answer can’t be found. I then asked the same question elsewhere online about how much electricity an average wind turbine will produce, and I found a simple and direct answer that “turbines will produce a maximum of 10 kws under perfect conditions, so each can theoretically generate 10 kws for 24 hours a day, 365 days a week. With only soft breezes, it will generate just a handful of watts.” Mmm, so how many watts will the Delburn wind farms generate? I would have thought Mr Wynne, the Planning Minister would have asked that too? If he didn’t, then why not? Isn’t that his job? And/or, shouldn’t we know? However, here’s a fact we all should know. According to the EIA (the US Energy Information Administration) the average ‘western’ home consumes 28.9 kw per day. If we do the maths, 1 x Delburn turbine will produce 10 kw per day, but only if the wind is blowing non-stop, for that day. (We all know that will never happen in Delburn). So therefore, 33 x Delburn wind turbines will produce 330 kw per day, or 120,450 a year. But only if the wind is blowing 24/7, 365 days a year! I don’t know about you, but every time I have driven past a wind farm, barely 10 per cent-20 per cent of those turbines are actually turning at any one given time. So therefore, I should have said in my original open letter that 400-800 homes will be supplied with electricity. But here’s the thing. In Boolarra, Yinnar, Yinnar South, Budgeree, Mirboo, Mirboo North, Baromi, Darlimurla, Thorpdale, Driffield, Allambee, and those other affected environs, there are well over 1600 homes. So therefore, I apologise profusely to you all about the number of homes I said the now approved Delburn wind farm will provide electricity for. However, my original statement still stands. The Delburn wind farm still will NOT produce enough electricity even for the number of homes they will affect. For the record, I am not opposed to renewables, nor to wind farms. From what I have gathered, nor are those other like-minded opponents to the Delburn ‘now approved’ proposal. I’m sure, and like myself, all are aware and accepting of the fact that the world must make changes to its energy sources, how and when we use them. It is a no brainer. My concerns are where these wind farms are to be located, and why? And that each and everyone of us who live in this affected area, should have our say about it. Or shouldn’t we? If you agree with Mr Wynne’s ill-conceived and un-consulted decision, you will find yourself, with or without the backing of the Supreme Court, having to deal with a peremptory decision, made by him, during the Andrews’ ‘emergency sitting’ government’, to all our detriment? So come on Gippslanders, shouldn’t we all have our say and it be heard? A plebiscite must be held. And further apologises won’t then be needed. Jeffrey Glover, Yinnar South

Gippsland Motorcyclists Toy Run draws closer

CHRISTMAS is still many months away, but it is not too early to start thinking about others and supporting those in need. During the past week, members of three clubs, the Eastern Riders, the Red Knights and Riders Evolution got together with Bobber Dave’s Custom Cycles, Traralgon, to launch the 23rd Gippsland Motorcyclists toy run. Gippsland Toy Run co-ordinator Alf Vella said “the last couple of years were difficult enough for local families and that all would be better for 2022,” but this is not so. “The Salvos and St Vinnies tell us that there are just as many families struggling to make ends meet as there ever was,” Mr Vella said. “Many people are finding it difficult to pay for basic needs and are seeking support more than ever and this will be reflected in the coming Christmas period.” Mr Vella is hoping the community will once more rise to the occasion and make the 2022 as successful as past years, with members already starting to collect toys at the conclusion of the 2021 Toy Run. In the last three years the clubs have topped $6000 worth of toys, an achievement they are very proud of. If you would like to donate a toy there are already several collection points in Gippsland, with collection points at Melina Bath’s office and Russell Northe’s office, Bobber Dave’s Custom Cycles and the Erica Caravan Park. You can also contact Alf and Stella Vella on 0434 618 689 to arrange collection.

Bridge in Traralgon

WITH the easing of COVID restrictions and the onset of winter, now is the time to start embracing an old pastime or embarking on a new one. Bridge is a game for all ages and abilities. It sharpens the mind, challenges the intellect, attempts to synchronise your

thoughts with your table partner in a challenging environment. If you are a lapsed player, a whist enthusiast, a euchre or a 500 player you will find the game a challenge. The Traralgon bridge club meets for three hours on a Monday night, Tuesday and Thursday afternoons. The table fee is $5 for three hours play including tea/coffee and a bikkie (if you are quick). We also offer a one-hour supervised play session on alternate Thursdays. New members are always welcome, but if you are unsure come along as a visitor and observe a few hands. Our membership embraces most decades and skill levels, so come along and join in. Details of location, session times, and contact numbers can be found at www.bridgewebs.com/traralgon

Old Gippstown’s ‘It’s a Dog’s Day’ market

WE are inviting all dog owners and those that love anything to do with dogs, to bring their beloved canines along to our Dog’s Day Out market event at Old Gippstown on Saturday, May 14. We are aiming at educating and showing what is out there to assist us to help our beloved dog members of our family. We will have our gates opening to the public at 9am until 4pm, with demonstrations from the Gippsland Dog Obedience club commencing on the hour from 10am until the last one at 1pm. There will be other attractions as well as stalls both for catering specifically for the bettering of our dog’s quality of life, as well as stalls for us to simply enjoy the pleasure of buying their delectable hot foods and delightful wares. So, bring your dogs for a wander around the eight acres of historic park and enjoy what’s on offer for the day.

There will also be the premier showing for us in our theatre of a brand new release of ‘Clifford the big red dog’ at 11am. A wonderful new movie for all ages to sit and watch. All dogs must be kept on their leads at all times, as we have wildlife meandering about the park all day. If you are a stall holder and interested in joining us, please email events@ gippslandheritagepark.com.au

Transport of Unit 2 Generator Rotor from AGL Loy Yang A to Geelong AGL Loy Yang wishes to advise the community that its Unit 2 Generator Rotor will be removed and transported by road from Loy Yang to Geelong for critical repairs on Friday 6 May. On Friday 15 April 2022, Unit 2 was taken out of service due to an electrical fault with the generator. Investigations have determined that the 68.5-tonne, 16.80-metre-long Generator Rotor will be required to be removed and transported to a specialist workshop for analysis and repair. With the support of our dedicated contractors, the AGL team is working around the clock to safely remove the rotor for transportation on Friday. Significant route planning has been carried out with GE, Fracht Australia and VicRoads, with no delays expected. Transportation of the Generator Rotor is expected to take about six hours. The safety of our local community and employees is our number one priority as we transport the Generator Rotor from Loy Yang to Geelong. Please drive with caution when in the vicinity of the rotor.

Moe wins Riley Pearce Cup FOOTBALL GIPPSLAND LEAGUE By LIAM DURKIN

Rising high: Ronald Kong heads the ball for Gippsland FC against Mornington at the weekend. photograph supplied

Solid results for Gippsland

SOCCER

–

GIPPSLAND FC had their first game of the National Premier Leagues season on the weekend.

–

Under-15

–

THE opening match saw a similar result to those suffered in the qualifying rounds with Gippsland going down 4-1 to Kingston City. Kingston had done their homework on GFC, they were quick to lockdown Gippsland’s potential match winners and engaged in a very assertive game plan. Kingston scored in the second minute of the match with a decisive goal. Gippsland managed to hold sway through the rest of the first half, however Kingston remained in the ascendency. After a few positional moves at half-time, it was hoped the Gippsland boys would show a bit more fight, however Kingston held firm, piling on three more goals in the half. Henry Wynne was able to grab a consolation goal for Gippsland near the end of the match. Not the start to the regular season Gippsland wanted, there will be plenty of soul search at Latrobe City Stadium this week at training. Angus Dempsey was the GFC player of the match, working hard at left back, Luca Dicorleto persevered, as did Hamish Gleeson in midfield. Noah Jackson and Spencer Boughton brought more fight to the backline in the second half.

Under-16

GIPPSLAND’S Under-16 team travelled to Mornington. Without a win and having drawn with Mornington in the pre-qualification rounds, the boys were determined to begin the season on a positive note. Both teams had numerous shots on goal in the first-half, without any going into the back of the net. To win the boys would need to work hard for the entire 80 minutes. GFC began to control the play in the second-half. They worked hard to chase the ball and defended fiercely. Abraham Konyi and Levi Colantuono controlled the ball through the centre, while Brodie Neave locked down Mornington’s key forward. Harry Humphreys made runs forward to receive the ball on several occasions. In the 75th minute, Brody Demagistris passed the ball to Lucus Vick, who then put it in the box for Harry Humphreys to tap in. Gippsland took home the three points, winning 1-0.

Under-18

THE Under-18 boys made the journey down the M1 to take on Kingston City. Gippsland started brightly, but the home side withstood the early challenge and started to gain control of the game, hitting the upright three times in quick succession. Those warnings weren’t heeded and soon after the home team scored two quality goals as Gippsland FC started to struggle with the pressure. Half-time couldn’t have come soon enough for Gippsland FC as it gave them time to regroup. Brodyn Taylor was working hard as was Campbell Dastey, but the Gippsland FC team were caught out on the break as the home team scored their third. Harry Tosch battled his way through a number of defenders to pull a goal back, giving Gippsland FC some hope. But it was the lone highlight as Kingston City added three more goals to score a commanding 6-1 win.

EVEN those who don’t believe in fate may have been converted if they witnessed what happened at Ted Summerton Reserve, Moe last Saturday. Not only did the Moe Football-Netball Club win the inaugural Riley Pearce Cup, named after the young Moe player who tragically lost a battle with mental health at the start of last year, they did it with three truly Lion hearted performances to do their club moniker proud. In what was an emotion-charged day playing arch rival Traralgon, Moe completed the football trifecta in Round 4 of the Gippsland League with wins in the Under-18s, reserves and seniors. The sense of destiny was undeniable - the Under18s, coached by Riley Pearce’s uncle Paul Walsh, came back from a five-goal deficit at three quarter time to win by six points. Riley’s older brother Liam kicked three goals in the reserves, and to top it all off - the seniors won by a point. Players across the grades wore specially made t-shirts during their warm-up with Pearce’s nickname ‘Choppy’ written across the front, as well as green socks for mental health advocate Mindfull Aus. Riley’s number 16 jumper has been the last thing Moe players have walked past as they leave the change room to head out onto the field for every game in the last year. The Under-18 game was undoubtedly the most emotion-charged, as Moe players, many of whom had played with Riley, were addressed by his father Andrew before the match. As the contest played out Traralgon appeared for all money to be cruising to a comfortable victory, but come the last quarter, the young Moe players found something. That something may well have come from above. The Lions hit the lead for the first time late in the match, holding on for a remarkable 10.8 (68) to 9.8 (62) win. There was hardly a dry eye as Andrew Pearce was embraced by players in the immediate aftermath, while coach Walsh looked like he couldn’t quite believe what had transpired. “I mentioned it before the game, I just said ‘he’ll be looking over you today’ … very proud of the boys,” the victorious coach said. “We all knew how Choppy played and how hard he played, I said ‘if you boys take half of that you’ll go a long way to winning the game’. “I think the last quarter brought that out. I know I definitely looked up at the sky a lot of times

Choppy was looking after us that’s for sure.” Post-match, the entire Moe and Traralgon contingent came together and stood for a minute’s silence before the commencement of the reserves game. Like the Under-18s, the Lions reserves were addressed by a member of the Pearce family in Mark ‘Dougie’ Walsh, whose nephew Hamish also played in the game. Riley’s eldest brother Matt had played for Moe his entire career up until this season, moving to Dalyston to be closer to work. Later that evening, Moe was presented the Riley Pearce Cup, decided on count back by virtue of winning senior football and A Grade netball after the Lions and Maroons had split wins across the grades in the two sports five-all. Taking a moment to reflect, Andrew Pearce said it had been a poignant day for the family. “It’s been emotional. For the day to pan out the way it has, for the thirds to win the way they did, Choppy would have loved the hardness and the way they went about it,” he said. “Speaking to the thirds before the game I just touched on Chop and how he went about his football, just enjoying the game. Win, lose or draw they need to enjoy life and get around each other.”

With Riley playing for Moe and having gone to school with many from Traralgon FNC, the two clubs have formed a tight bond throughout the ordeal. A mental health round in Riley’s honour had been arranged last year, but was cancelled no less than four times. Andrew wished to pay tribute to both clubs for the work they had done in getting the match for mental health up and running. “Traralgon has been fantastic. There is that ultimate rivalry, but Kev Foley (Traralgon FNC president), the effort he went to has been fantastic,” he said. “On the Friday before the last game was cancelled (in 2021) I came up here (to Ted Summerton Reserve) and the whole Under-18 Traralgon team was here and they spent a couple of hours with me. “Clint Taylor and Mark Walsh (from Moe FNC) have been fantastic organising Mindfull Aus. Matt Runnalls (Mindfull Aus founder) came and spoke and I think the club got a lot out of it. The whole club has wrapped their arms around us, it has been very comforting. It definitely helps when you have that support network, it makes things easier.” If you or someone you know is struggling, phone Beyond Blue on 1300 224 636 or Lifeline 13 11 14.

Dodgers defeat Redsox BASEBALL LVBA By AMY FORRESTER

SATURDAY was the first game back for our junior players. Under-10s played first with Under-13s following. All the kids were excited to be back on the field after having their season cut short last year due. Sunday had an early start for the Under-16 teams. Taking to the field for their first game of the season with some outstanding plays made by all, it’s going to be a great season.

A GRADE

 MOE/NEWBOROUGH vs TRARALGON REDSOX

IT WAS a tough game for the Traralgon Redsox who lost to the Moe/Newborough Dodgers in a result of 9-2. Playing nine innings, Nathan Simpson led things off on the mount pitching for the Dodgers. Showing a strong game Simpson only allowed the Redsox eight hits over the nine, surrendering two runs and striking out five. Luke Hornstra was the first to score for Traralgon in the first innings. Tom Rynberk started off pitching for the Redsox. Pitching three innings, he allowed four hits, three runs, striking out one and walking one. John Kus and Josh Graham each contributed in relief pitching for the Redsox. Multiple hits were made by each side with the Dodgers getting 14 hits and Redsox eight.  SALE RANGERS vs CHURCHILL BRAVES

SALE Rangers two pitchers didn’t allow a single hit, as they defeated Churchill Braves 11-2. An early lead helped propel Sale to victory. Scoring on an error in the first innings, Jack Nessham collected a fields choice, a double by Will Hector, a single by Kevin Arbuthnot was followed by a single by Joel Hector all in the second innings which saw Sale establish a lead. Brad Jones was on the mount for Churchill,

lasting two innings allowing five hits, seven runs and only one strikeout. Bryce Haley, Rhys McKenzie and Jacob Dickinson contributed in relief pitching for the Braves. Joel Hector was on the mount for Sale allowing zero hits, two runs, striking out seven and walking one in four innings. Will Hector took the final spotlight striking out Haley to get the last out of the game.

B GRADE

MORWELL Cougars fell behind early and couldn’t make a comeback in a 12-1 loss against Moe/ Newborough Dodgers. The Cougars struggled to contain the highpowered offence of the Dodgers. Sale Rangers also fell behind early and couldn’t come back in a 21-0 loss to Churchill Braves. Churchill pulled out all the tricks with a total of 13 hits with some of those being multiple hits, and with 14 stolen bases there was no stopping them.

C GRADE

MORWELL Cougars lapsed early and struggled to make a comeback with a 16-7 loss to Moe/ Newborough Dodgers. Churchill took the win against Sale Rangers 9-0 due to a forfeit on Sale’s behalf.

Kayla’s full house of medals SWIMMING By LIAM DURKIN

THE Latrobe Valley might have another Paralympian in the making. Churchill swimmer Kayla Wilson recently returned home from the Australian Age Championships in Adelaide with one gold, two silver and one bronze medal. The performances continued a steady rise for the 16-year-old, who has dominated the pool in the last five months. Wilson started 2022 winning three gold and two silvers at the Victorian Country Championships in Mildura, and then followed up by winning all four multi-class events at the local Gippsland Championships in February. Not to be outdone, the youngster then won a remarkable 10 gold medals at the Victorian State Championships in March before making her way to Adelaide for the nationals where she won gold in the Girls 15-16 100 metre breaststroke, silver in the Girls 15-16 50m freestyle, silver in the Girls 15-16 100m breaststroke multi-class and bronze in the Girls 16-18 200m individual medley. Wilson, who lives with hypochondroplasia (a form of dwarfism) said she was happy with how she performed in Adelaide. “It was a good experience. I flew across with my coach Dean (Gooch) and back by myself. I had 10 events in Adelaide, I was very proud of my efforts and got PBs in most of my events,” she said. “I was just hoping to get a PB and to get into the top five which I did for most of my events.” Wilson has been swimming since age nine and trains most nights of the week either at Churchill or in Traralgon at Ford Swim Centre. Traralgon Swimming Club head performance coach Dean Gooch congratulated Wilson on her achievements, saying she had displayed a great level of commitment outside club hours. “Kayla has been swimming with the club now for over six years and due to circumstances is unable to attend all her required sessions with the club thereby having to regularly train on her own during the week at the Churchill Leisure Centre,” he said. “She is a very determined young girl who is very

resilient, self-sufficient and adaptable. She has so much upside to her improvement that a future in swimming at the multi class level could be a sustainable and long term journey for her as she works her way through the ranks of Paralympic swimming. “Her recent results, even though fantastic, could just be the tip of the iceberg in relation to her future success in the sport.” Wilson’s achievements have attracted the attention of those in high places, and she has been added to the Swimming Australia Paralympic National Development Squad - the only Victorian to do so.

In the next 12 months, Wilson will head up to the Gold Coast for three separate five-day development camps as the sport heads toward the 2024 Paris Olympic Games and 2026 Commonwealth Games, part of which will be held in the Latrobe Valley. Wilson looks well on the way to follow in the footsteps of fellow Traralgon swimmers and Paralympic medallists Emily Beecroft and Ruby Storm. “They were always people I looked up to and hoped I could get to that level,” she said. “If that is able to happen I would definitely like to take my swimming further.”

Moe holds bumper Anzac Day meeting HORSE RACING By LIAM DURKIN

MOE Racing Club hosted its traditional Anzac Day meeting last week. In what has become a good coup for the region, Moe is the only country racing club in Victoria to have a meeting on Anzac Day. Honouring the Anzac spirit was of upmost importance on the day, and the club held a flag raising ceremony before on-track action commenced, while Moe RSL general manager Don Field recited The Ode. Earlier in the day, the Moe RSL Dawn Service saw an approximate 800-strong congregation come to pay their respects. A crowd of around 900 was treated to a sevencard meeting on a track rated a Soft 7. The opening race, the Law Somerville Maiden Plate over 2082 metres, was won by Maktastic for Cranbourne-based trainers Emma Lee and David Browne. The four-year-old gelding hit the lead with 400m to go and finished well to win by a length. A similar margin was seen in the next race, the Smick Health and Fitness Maiden Plate (1114m) as Sarwattle got home by 1.25 lengths. Trained at Sale by prominent trainer Reg Manning, the Moe victory gave Sarwattle its first from 12 career starts. Spectators were given an exciting spectacle in the Young Signs Fillies and Mares Maiden Plate (1214m). Mornington three-year-old Kashmere Star led at both the 800m and 400m but needed to withstand a challenge from Lady Vuitton to win on the inside. Another close finish followed in the Hip Pocket LV BM58 Handicap (1214m). Sestillia stormed home in the last 300m to sneak in ahead of Too Viennese by a neck. The Brandt Leongatha BM58 Handicap (2439m) saw an incredibly tight finish, with only 0.2 of a length separating the top three finishers. A photo was needed to decide who took places in the trifecta, and in the end it was Capellani that won literally by an inch for Ballarat trainer Richard Cully. Ima Dozer ran a great race for Moe trainer Christine Sexton to come second. The penultimate race, the Cool Aqua Springs BM58 Handicap (1114m) saw State of Class stretch to the line to win by 1.25 lengths, while Sale trainer Susie Wells ensured there was a Gippsland winner that saw out the day, securing the Ladbrokes Live Betting BM58 Handicap (1623m). The Wells-trained Bishop Rock put in a strong performance, winning by almost two lengths.

Triumph: Bishop Rock, ridden by Lewis German, returns to the mounting yard after winning the Ladbrokes Live Betting BM58 Handicap at Moe on Anzac Day. Moe Racing Club chief executive Shane Berry said the club was always proud to hold a meeting on Anzac Day. “It is a special day. All net profits from the day

will be passed onto the Moe RSL. Both clubs work together, the RSL and racing club come together on the day to raise funds for Anzac proceeds,” he said. “The weather was great, everyone was out having a really good day. “The racing was spectacular. The course kicked up a little bit of young grass early in the day but then settled down and was perfect, everyone ran good times.” There was more good news to come out of the meeting, with a snap of jockeys and officials in the mounting yard at Moe for the flag-raising ceremony awarded ‘Photo of the Week’ in the Country Racing Victoria bulletin. Looking further ahead, Berry said all Gippsland racing clubs (Moe, Latrobe Valley, Sale, Stony Creek and Bairnsdale) had been working together to form a united Gippsland racing front to really showcase the sport and hopefully generate greater interest. “We’ve been meeting quite a few times all the general managers of the clubs,” he said. “We are trying to work out ways to come together instead of working separately and try to sell Gippsland racing as a whole.” Racing will next be held at Moe on Tuesday, May 17. The club’s next major meeting will be the Christmas in July event on Saturday, July 16.

Falcons’ winning run continues SOCCER LVSL By LAURIE WILLIAMS

ROUND 7 REVIEW ROUND 6 of the Latrobe Valley Soccer League could go down as league-defining come the end of the year, with Falcons moving to the top of the table after downing Churchill while Newborough/Yallourn caused the upset of the round by beating Moe United in their local derby. Fortuna 60 was equally impressive beating previously undefeated Morwell rivals Morwell Pegasus while there was wins for Sale United and Monash.  CHURCHILL v FALCONS 2000

FALCONS claimed top position on the ladder after their hard fought win over a tenacious Churchill who pushed the Morwell side all the way on a difficult surface. Churchill was competitive in the first half keeping Falcons scoreless after the Birds had the bulk of possession. Churchill keeper Glen McColl was under pressure by a constant barrage of shots at goal as Falcons kept attacking, but Churchill was resolute in their defence. The Rams almost took the lead midway through the term when Charles Simon had to stretch to keep out a long range bomb forcing the ball wide. If the game had finished at half time at 0-0 then Churchill would have been pleased with their efforts but after the break Falcons proved too strong and showed why they are still undefeated this season. On the 55 minute mark some exceptional interplay on the left hand wing brought about a sumptuous cross for in-form striker Nonda Lazaris to expertly drive the ball home from 15 yards out into the bottom corner to settle the nerves of the away side. To Churchill’s credit they continued to fight and harass but were only able to manufacture one chance in the half which saw them sky the ball over Simon’s goal. As the game entered its final stages the high fitness levels of the Morwell side came to the fore and striker Jamie Pistrin helped himself to a late brace to put the result beyond doubt at 3-0.  MOE v NEWBOROUGH/YALLOURN

NEWBOROUGH/YALLOURN, who have had a stop-start campaign thus far, now have the bragging rights of the traditional derby thanks to a hard earned win over crosstown rivals Moe. The Combine flew out of the blocks to be up by two goals at half-time. After the break Moe was still not on the board as Newborough increased their lead to 3-0 with still half an hour to play. The Devils got one back seven minutes later, but Newborough/Yallourn was determined to

win and subsequently scored again only four minutes later. The two sides traded a further goal apiece, leading to a final scoreline of 4-2. The loss was the third of the season for Moe, who are seemingly out of touch in the fight for the league title at this point in time. Many thought Newborough/Yallourn would be out of the league title picture after some off-season recruitment issues but they have been extremely resolute and find themselves only six points off top spot with a game in hand.

three matches to give Monash a 3-1 buffer. After a corner kick a goal-mouth scramble ensued in Traralgon’s attacking end which saw the ball deflect into the net. Adam Semple’s shot from 20 metres out was fumbled by the keeper and Paulet seized the opportunity to score his second to give the Wolves a 4-2 victory. The win sees Monash up to equal seventh while Traralgon City find themselves in eighth.

 PEGASUS v FORTUNA

SALE’S match against East Gippsland brought great rewards as the Swans tried to get back in form after their trouncing at Falcons last week. The 5-1 victory over the Eagles was full of merit with Isaak Jondahi scoring a brace, his second for the season, Cooper Coleman also scored twice with Callum Campbell rounding out the scorers. The game was made harder for the Eagles as they finished with only 10 players. East Gippsland remain winless this season while the win for Sale sees them jump to sixth place.

A TANTALISING all-Morwell fixture played out on Sunday with Fortuna upsetting the more fancied Pegasus on their own turf. Pegasus, with five wins from five, were expected to win what was billed as a tight contest, however they now find themselves out of top place and in turn the Orangemen firmly inserted themselves into the league title race. Fortuna showed good signs early and by the break were one up on Pegasus with Hayden Tanti scoring with a bullet that beat Santo Simon. Simon was in stunning form saving a number of guilt-edged opportunities and his side solely had him to thank for keeping them in the contest. There was plenty of action on field as Pegasus tried to make up lost ground but Fortuna was defensively strong. Fortuna custodian John Beamer was called into action at least four times in the second half as Pegasus tried to level the score. Players were going down like nine pins as the on field activities saw some very tough tackles. Fortuna was sitting on their slender lead well into the term when a Kuku Mahmoud shot shaved the top bar which saw Fortuna clear from defence upfield where Ollie Spiteri was lurking and he beat the keeper on a one-on-one to give Fortuna a 2-0 lead. With time running out Pegasus, with the last throw of the dice, was able to claw a goal back to ensure a nervous end to the match but it was a case of too little too late as Fortuna took the match 2-1 for Pegasus’ first defeat of the season. Fortuna’s victory, along with other results, sees them move up to third position with a game on hand. Pegasus will have to quickly shake off the defeat as they host a plucky Churchill side this weekend.  MONASH v TRARALGON

MONASH won their first match of the season with a comfortable 4-1 win over Traralgon City, their fourth in a row over the Roosters. Monash scored first through Jarrod Baldacchino beating Traralgon’s new ‘keeper Mason Loprese, but the Roosters got one back just before the interval. The ever-present goalsneak Braden Paulet put the Wolves ahead just after the break then Broden Grover scored his fourth goal in

 SALE v EAST GIPPSLAND

ROUND 8 PREVIEW TWO more night games are planned for this weekend with Traralgon City hosting Moe and Falcons at home against East Gippsland. Both matches commence at 7pm.  TRARALGON CITY v MOE (7pm Saturday)

UNDER lights again are these two teams with Moe smarting after being rolled by crosstown rivals Newborough/Yallourn last weekend. The Red Devils were surprised by the tenacity of the Combine who seemed to want possession more. However some of Moe’s injured brigade will return and they will be baying for blood to restart their season. RECORD: Played: 96, Moe 53, Traralgon City 29, 13 draws. Last time: Moe 2-0.

 FALCONS v EAST GIPPSLAND (7pm Saturday)

EAST Gippsland see themselves going from the frying pan to the fire as they face the daunting trip down the highway to the ladder leaders. Falcons are riding the crest of a wave at present, they remain the only undefeated side and are playing well although Churchill gave them some anxious moments last weekend which will give the East Gippsland side some encouragement. Potentially Falcons could reach double figures on form against the Eagles who are finding it a tough season. Falcons hold the perfect record against the East, not dropping a match against them. RECORD: Played 9, Falcons 9, East Gippsland 0. Last time: Falcons 10-1.  FORTUNA v NEWBROUGH/YALLOURN (3pm Sunday)

GIANT killers Fortuna are starting to make people sit up and take notice. Their wins on Anzac Day (where they defeated Churchill 5-2) and Sunday beating the top side Pegasus in a tough encounter (2-1) are giving them a new bout of confidence and will put them in good form against Newborough/Yallourn who surprised Moe last weekend in a return to winning form. If Fortuna are looking to make a run for the league title they must win encounters such as this, but the battlehardened Combine are big-time performers and this fixture takes top billing as the match of the round.

RECORD: Played 44, Fortuna 34, Newborough/ Yallourn 8, 8 draws. Last time: Newborough/Yallourn 1-0/  SALE v MONASH (3pm Sunday)

AN important match for both teams where winning means so much for their morale. Monash bounced back with a good win over Traralgon City while Sale battled hard for a win against a determined East Gippsland team last week. Monash has the better record over Sale, but the Swans won the last encounter and will be keen to make it two in a row. RECORD: Played 91, Monash 41 Sale 30, 20 draws, Last time: Sale 2-1.  PEGASUS v CHURCHILL (3pm Sunday)

THIS is a game where Pegasus need to pick up the pieces after their loss to Fortuna last weekend, but they lost more than the match as they also lost top spot and it was their first loss for the season. Churchill put up a brave front against Falcons, but were worn down by the relentless pressure from the top side. Pegasus should return to the winning list, but can’t take the Rams too lightly. RECORD: Played 59, Pegasus 33, Churchill 14, 12 draws. Last time: Churchill 1-0.  INFORMATION REQUIRED

North Gippsland Football & Netball League

NORTH GIPPSLAND LEAGUE

Large margiins highhlight North Gippsland action FOOTBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND By SCOTT BERECHREE

COURTESY of Churchill having the bye and their 173-point demolition of a hapless Gormandale last week, the Jets of Yallourn Yallourn North have taken up residence in the North Gippsland Football-Netball League penthouse. As much as there is a rush to check the goal kickers list to see who kicked how many when a side wins by such a margin the hidden gem among the big score in Round 4 was perhaps that the league leaders kept their opponents scoreless across three quarters of footy. Having placed 1.2 (8) against Gormandale’s name in the first quarter whoever was in charge of that half of the scoreboard on Saturday could have broken out the banana lounge and cocktails after the first break as that’s where the home side’s score remained until the final siren. In contrast YYN piled on 21.25 (151) across the last three terms to run away with a percentage boosting victory 25.31 (181) to 1.2 (8). Jets president, and man of the people, Evan Sheekey however lauded the Gormandale boys when speaking in the post-game. He was taken by the Tigers attitude that saw YYN’s 25th major as hard to come by as their first. He said he couldn’t believe the Gormandale defenders simply kept plugging away despite the odds in a sign that while the scores might not have gone the Tigers way since Round 1 the endeavour and effort remains. In addition to the obvious, Dean MacDonald’s bag of seven majors and Dylan Bath’s best on ground performance, Sheekey was also full of praise for youngster Lachlan Fry who bagged a pair of goals in his first senior game. Sheekey was also effusive in his acknowledgement of the return of James De Virgilio. De Virgilio played his first game Saturday after a full shoulder reconstruction ended his season early last year. DV, as he is known, found enough of the ball to suggest a return to full form is imminent. IN a round of lop-sided results the closest clash was between Yarram and Sale City. Yarram was coming off a win in their local derby over Woodside last week while Sale City made the trip to the home of the Demons

coming off a pair of wins from their only two games of the season so far. The scene was set for a titanic tussle and that’s what those in attendance saw as Yarram won 8.9 (57) to 6.7 (43). Somewhat encumbered by the after effects of a curiously timed Friday night wedding Yarram managed to notch a 14-point win over a young Bulldogs line-up that was missing their boom recruit Dr Sam Davidson. In his absence, the tri-colours shared the goal kicking responsibilities with Riley Boyle, Jaxsyn Whitehill, Mitchell Evans and Lachlan Carman kicking singles while Jia Nelson slotted two. Up against a Yarram side that included the returning Boadie Motton from the SANFL and Jayden Shea, however six goals was never likely to be enough for the visitors. With Motton dominant in the middle and Corbin Sutherland damaging, if inaccurate, in front of goal kicking 2.5 (17) the Demons got the points. Sutherland was incredibly complimentary when talking up the Sale City youngsters and suggested the Bulldogs would surprise a few sides across the course of the season. He also, admittedly reluctantly, offered some praise to his own teams back six suggesting the blue collar work of Yarram’s defensive unit was crucial to the home side’s win. IN a clash that looked almost certain to end the losers finals hopes Rosedale prevailed over Heyfield on the back of a strong first-half performance. The Blues jumped the visiting Roos and led by 26 points at the main break. From then on it was five goals each for the two sides with Rosedale keeping their season alive thanks to their 29-point win 10.11 (71) to 6.6 (42). Playing his first game of the season, Brad Scott helped himself to a pair of goals and provided some much needed structure to Rosedale front half. His presence in the forward 50 also freed up Frazar Brouns who was dominant around the ground and found his way into the best players list. Benefiting the most from Brouns’ ruck work was young gun Riley Atlee, who was listed as best on for the winners in what will be a real confidence boost for him for the rest of the season. Best for Heyfield was Brayden Woodland, Liam Heasley, Bailey Escreet, Tyson Birss and James Beha.

TRARALGON Tyers United 100-point plus win over Cowwarr consigned the Saints to the bottom of the ladder for at least another round. Saints coach Shane Galea led the way for The Warr bagging two goals, but with only Toby Thorburn joining him on the goalkickers list his side was never really in the hunt and went down 18.17 (125) to 3.4 (22). For TTU midfield bull Jayden Cutts and new recruit Rowan Hore managed four goals each in what would have been a terrific tuneup for this week’s clash with Churchill to be played under lights at the Tyers Recreation Reserve. For those unable to attend this game will be covered by 104.7 Gippsland FM. In terms of the Bombers better players it was no surprise to see the likes of co-captain Jye Nielson, gun on baller Michael Jacobsen and key defender Jack Brown listed. The upside for coach Jamie Aitken however is the inclusion of youngsters like Liam Willaton and Tom Fleming among the Bombers better players yet again. THE final clash of the round saw Woodside rebound from their loss to Yarram last week and get the points over a persistent Glengarry. Glengarry in fact only trailed last year’s league champions by 20 points at the final break, but a five goal to none last term saw the Wildcats walk away with a 50-point win 15.10 (100) to 7.8 (50). With the wind blowing across the ground scoring was hard with only Jay Neagle managing multiple majors for the Magpies. Wildcats coach Michael Duncan, playing his first game for the season, kicked two for the victors with Ben Johnson and David Waddell grabbing three apiece. Duncan reflected after the game that it was a contested battle noting the game was played in close all day. This, he said, was symptomatic of both the conditions and both sides preparedness to play a loose player behind the ball. When the game was on the line Duncan felt his club’s leaders, the likes of Ryan Foat, Dan Missen, Johnson and Will Broadbent all stood tall to ensure the Wildcats got the win. Duncan also noted the efforts of David Waddell and Bailey Tatnell up front who presented well all day and took some telling marks.

TTU and Churchill’s Quantum support FOOTBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND

TRARALGON Tyers United Football-Netball Club and Churchill Football-Netball Club’s will come together this Saturday for a very worthy cause. The Bombers and Cougars will play under lights at Tyers Recreation Reserve in the North Gippsland Football-Netball League, all the while raising awareness for the work of local provider Quantum Support Services. TTU will be donating gate raffle takings to Quantum while QR codes will be displayed at the ground for attendees to make a donation if they wish. Bombers president Tim Aitken encouraged local footy and netball fans to come along. “It is going to be a great day and evening of football and netball, we have some exciting additional activations planned so it would be great to see a bumper crowd attend,” he said. “I am really pleased that both TTUFNC and CFNC are supporting Quantum Support Services who are based here in Gippsland and doing some really wonderful work in the area. Our aim is to provide awareness for their not-for-profit work in Gippsland and also assist with raising much needed funds. “We had new ground lighting installed two years ago so this is the first ever night game for TTU which is really exciting for the club. “We really appreciate Churchill FNC’s support and flexibility to accommodate the night game concept, I’m sure we will see

some great football and netball matches across the day and evening.” Senior football starts at 6pm and A Grade netball at 4.20pm. Entertainment will be provided by rock duo Steve and Adam, who will play at half-time of the senior football match and post-game until late.

Great cause: Traralgon Tyers United and Churchill Football-Netball Club’s will come together this week to raise money for local provider Quantum Support Services. Pictured are TTU co-captains Mitch Mustoe and Jye Neilson with Churchill co-captain Angus Mitchell.

Hillman holld offf a brave Bulldogs for tight victory FOOTBALL MID GIPPSLAND By ROB POPPLESTONE

 HILL END v NEWBOROUGH THERE was no question Newborough had already indicated some significant improvement had been made at the kennel in the opening rounds of the 2022 Mid Gippsland Football-Netball League season, but it was this test against Hill End on the Rovers home ground that would give a more definitive opinion on whether that improvement might be enough to threaten the big boys at the top. The conclusion is that the Bulldogs are good and getting better, but still have a little way to go after Hill End won a very good contest 9.13 (67) to 6.14 (50). Newborough coach Craig Skinner said despite the result he was pleased with his side for the most part. “It was a great opportunity to gauge where we are against the competition’s best,” he said. “We played one and a half quarters of footy and was disappointed to watch Hill End kick the last five goals of the game … but that’s what good sides do!” Hill End coach Mike Santo said both teams traded momentum. “(It) was a back and forth game, we started well and led at half-time but Newborough made some adjustments at half-time and they came out ready to play and had most of the play in the third quarter and the start of the fourth,” he said. “The Newborough crowd were in full voice as they led by 15 points halfway through the last quarter before we switched on and kicked five straight to win the match. “An entertaining game, although we are still not playing our best footy it is always good to get the four points ‘anywhere anytime’.” Hill End, in defeating an aspiring team, answered a few questions that were being asked post their surprising draw against Boolarra just seven days prior. Now the job for Santo and his team is to start to string a few wins together that gives far greater opportunities and challenges later in the year.  MIRBOO NORTH v YINNAR TIGERS coach Josh Taylor had kept his normal cool facade despite his team losing the opening two rounds, and part of that front has been built on his side being able to ‘bounce back’ from similar starts in recent years. Going into this match against Yinnar however he was acutely aware, as was his senior team, that a third loss in a row would have the odds of them being a finals aspirant quickly building against them, and indeed that is what happened as Yinnar won 16.12 (108) to 3.9 (27). The Tigers now have a power of work to do just to be in contention let alone a contender. Taylor said it was a disappointing performance. “Not a great day. Yinnar won the toss and kicked with the wind which was a huge advantage. Second quarter the wind dropped off which was a pain but that’s footy,” he said. “Beaten by a quicker, fitter and better side. “It’s a must win against MDU next week at home or our season is off to a disastrous start.” While the Tigers season is on the brink of disaster the last fortnight for the Magpies has been super impressive. Yinnar coach Daniel Taylor enjoyed getting a win over his brother. “Another great effort by the boys, our workrate and tackling pressure was outstanding from the start which really set the day up for us,” he said. “Everyone is having a crack and contributing which is very pleasing to see. “Mirboo North are always hard to beat up there so we really set ourselves for a big game, I thought they were good in patches and have some promising kids, we got the jump on them and to our credit we didn’t let them get back in the game.” The Magpies are well placed to climb their way further up the MGFNL ladder, while for Mirboo North it seems the only way is up for now.  MORWELL EAST v THORPDALE THERE would not have been a more disappointed coach in Victoria than Morwell

Great game: Nick Grainger (being congratulated during a game last year) kicked three goals in Morwell East’s victory at the weekend. file photograph East’s Devon Soutar after his team’s effort against Yinnar just one week prior. I say effort, because it wasn’t so much his team’s loss that hurt, but it was their application to the contest that obviously had him fuming. The chance to atone for a less than acceptable performance was the Hawks priority as they welcomed Thorpdale on the weekend, and they destroyed them with four solid quarters of football winning 21.15 (141) to 9.6 (60). Soutar said it has been a better week. “We needed to respond strongly after last week and thankfully we did. It gave the group real clarity about the link between workrate and result, and consistency in that aspect is what we are chasing,” he said. Thorpdale coach Ray Picketing put things in perspective, saying some uncontrollable factors had affected the group leading in. The Blues had to cancel training on Tuesday after three quarters of the senior team came down sick. “After a tough week with the flu, thankfully not COVID, going through the playing group the boys did well to get up for the clash and started brightly with a very competitive first quarter but with a strong wind behind Morwell East in the second they piled on the goals and essentially put the game to bed,” he said. “Our boys fought the game out well in the last but they proved way too good.” Both of these teams are showing improvement. For the Hawks it’s about being good enough to compete in finals, for the Blues, at this stage, it’s about being good enough to trouble sides above them.  TARWIN v FOSTER AS good as Tarwin had been in their two wins in two rounds to start the season, their home ground clash with classy rival Foster was always going to be the type of opposition that would fast track their credibility of being a finals contender rather than a middle of the range team. Foster had a fortnight to stew on their first round loss to Fish Creek, in a game where they led comfortably before inexcusably giving up what should have been an opening round win, but as disappointing as that loss was, things got even worse, when the Tigers went down to the Sharks 10.2 (62) to 4.6 (30). Tarwin coach Troy Hemming was buzzing after the win. “Foster have some big bodies and are really strong around the contest. They brought some heat but our boys just stuck to the plan and played great footy,” he said. “First game for the club for Noah BeeHickman was solid down back with Lachie Schreurs having his best game for the season next to him in the backline chopping everything off setting us up to attack. “Jack Vanderkolk is on antibiotics this week after receiving leather poisoning having his best game for the season “Very proud of our group, seconds and seniors have all earned respect and the week off as we have the bye this week”. Good sides won’t panic under pressure, and in fact more times than not, they respond in a way that sees them at their best. Foster coach Sam Davies paid credit to Tarwin. “They are very well structured and a much improved side,” he said. “We really let ourselves down with front half turnover and letting the ball out of the back, which ultimately was the difference, but we’re far from worried.” Foster this week host Newborough, the

Bulldogs too, coming off a loss and keen to put the Tigers to the sword. The clash looms as crucial for both teams, but especially for the home side as they chase their first win.  MDU v FISH CREEK THERE are not too many things worse than losing by a solitary point, as there are so many instances in a game where you can look back and think what if we did that, what if we goaled then, what if we didn’t turnover when we did. But the fact is the only thing you can do is bounce back the following week and that’s exactly what MDU had planned to do when they welcomed Fish Creek to their home ground, and didn’t the Demons love it when their plan came together, winning comprehensively 7.17 (59) to just 0.9 (9) - the well-respected Fish Creek side kept goalless for the entire match. Meeniyan Dumbalk United coach Peter Harris said he couldn’t have been prouder. “The effort the boys have been putting in on the track paid off today against a top side. We have set the benchmark now and have a real belief within the group,” he said. The bar has been lifted not only for MDU, but also for many teams in the MGFNL competition, with the knowledge that unless any side on any given day has come prepared, they are vulnerable no matter the opposition. Fish Creek coach John Danckert was left searching for answers. “Really tough loss take,” he said. “Out played in every aspect of the game. We remain positive, we understand that we are a work in progress, we lick our wounds and learn a lot from a loss like that.” It’s been said before, and it will be said again, this competition is as even as it’s been, perhaps in decades, and even a small blemish as that of the Kangaroos on this occasion can have longer lasting effects than just the one week. This week the test doesn’t become any easier when they prepare for the challenge of Morwell East.  TOORA v STONY CREEK SUCCESSIVE 100 point plus losses are obviously not the way you want to open your season, but for the Power, overcoming such comprehensive defeats would start with a much improved performance against the visiting Lions. Stony Creek was one from two, but desperately keen to take advantage of Toora’s poor start to the season by assuming control of the match early and in doing so further deflating a team who had been bashed for a fortnight prior. It didn’t all go exactly to plan, but importantly it went well enough for the Lions to get the points with a five goal victory, 10.10 (70) to 5.10 (40). Stony Creek coach Jay Accardi said he was happy to get the win and move on. “We had a great contest against Toora who pushed us all day,” he said. “It was pleasing from our point of view that we were able to play the style of football we have been aiming for and we are starting to gel as a team.” Toora coach Matthew Ponton said it was a better effort from his troops. “Our boys put pride back in the jumper today with a never give up attitude, although we didn’t get the result the fight and belief we showed in each other all day was pleasing and something to build on for the rest of the year,” he said.  BOOLARRA had the bye.

Morwell’s victory just marvellous Woodside setting the pace in North Gippy

NETBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND By LIAM DURKIN

WOODSIDE is the only unbeaten team in North Gippsland netball. The Wildcats are four from four, and hold a one game lead over neighbouring rival Yarram on the competition ladder. Woodside played a competitive match against Glengarry last weekend, and did enough to win 57 to 54. Heading into the game with top spot up for grabs, the contest did not disappoint, as teams traded momentum throughout the match. Yarram consolidated its place in the top three after recording a 47 to 36 win over Sale City. The Demons bounced back strongly from their defeat to Woodside last round and handed the Bulldogs their first loss for the season. Yallourn Yallourn North got on the winners list with a 41 to 36 victory over Gormandale. The victory was welcomed for the Jets who faced a danger game against the Tigers brimming with confidence following a win the week prior. Samira Heffernan collected the plaudits for best on court, followed by Paige Roberts who played a great game. Rosedale got back to business with a commanding win over Heyfield. The Blues were rarely challenged and took control of proceedings from the get-go, eventually winning 47 to 16. Cowwarr won their second match for the season, accounting for TTU in a two goal thriller. The Saints had their noses in front when it mattered most, winning 44 to 42.

NETBALL GIPPSLAND LEAGUE By LIAM DURKIN

MORWELL remains unbeaten after four rounds of Gippsland League netball. The Tigers latest victim was Warragul, who they defeated 38 to 30. The visiting Gulls took it right up to the Tigers in what was a margin that surprised a lot of people. Warragul netballers, much to their credit, have put in honest performances this season amid the great inconvenience of needing to play off-site as their Western Park facility is still being upgraded. Those who have played for sporting teams unable to play at their actual home ground will attest to how much of a hassle it can be, with not just the on-field or on-court action taking a hit. Moe and Traralgon played out an equally good game. The Lions prevailed by 10 goals, 57 to 47 at Ted Summerton Reserve. The win made it back-to-back wins for Moe and also went some way to the club winning the inaugural Riley Pearce Cup that was being played for in the name of mental health between the two clubs. Goal attack Georgia Moody was best on court, followed by Macy Gardiner and Laini Galea. Traralgon is still yet to get off the mark in 2022, although in fairness has played four teams expected to be finals bound in Leongatha, Drouin, Morwell and Moe. This tough draw should give the Maroons a battle hardened edge for their upcoming games, and their match against Warragul this Saturday looms as very much season defining. Drouin won a close encounter against Wonthaggi, getting the points 44 to 38 at home, while Leongatha thumped Bairnsdale 68 to 28 at home as well. In the Battle of the Birds, Maffra was too strong for Sale, winning 42 to 27. Taking the home court advantage, the Eagles bounced back from their loss to Moe last week to enjoy better success this time around. Jaz Schellen was voted best on court, along with Abbey Pleydell who took out the Pam Birss Memorial Medal. Rach Ronaldson and Katy Troughton played well for Sale.

Toora outclasses Stony Creek to remain top

NETBALL MID GIPPSLAND By LIAM DURKIN

TOORA is still tops in Mid Gippsland netball. The Magpies consolidated their position at the head of the competition ladder after smashing Stony Creek 61 to 11. Toora and Mirboo North remain the only unbeaten teams from those who have played at least three games. The Tigers took care of Yinnar with surprisingly relative ease, winning 65 to 40. Yinnar, a powerhouse of recent years, have been in uncharacteristic form in the last fortnight. The Magpies only won their Round 2 encounter against Morwell East marginally, and have now lost to Mirboo North by 25 goals. The Tigers could not be faulted in their performance, and found solid contributions from Louisa Pratt and Abby Forrester. Newborough recorded their first win of the season, defeating Hill End 52 to 36. The Bulldogs played well at home and were well served by Caitlin Prestidge, Tayla Knowles and Olivia Rock. Morwell East won easily against Thorpdale, getting the job done in a 74 to 23 rout. Steph Campbell stood out for the winners. In other results, Tarwin defeated Foster 43 to 23 and Fish Creek scrapped home against MDU in a 32 to 29 scoreline. Boolarra had the bye. The Demons are third on the ladder, with Morwell East, Tarwin and Fish Creek behind. Foster, Hill End and Thorpdale remain win-less heading into Round 4.

Lions tak ke out thriller to extend unbeaten streak FOOTBALL GIPPSLAND LEAGUE By LIAM DURKIN

MARGINS provided the biggest talking point as results from Round 4 of the Gippsland League came to hand last Saturday. While the season is still in what one might term the ‘establishment phase’, results so far have meant there is no shortage of questions to keep the heads of those with an interest in the competition spinning. There cannot be many questions surrounding one particular team however, as, scarily, Leongatha might be even better than most people expected. MOE was saved by the bell against Traralgon. The Lions held on for dear life to win by a point 8.8 (56) to 7.13 (55). In a bruising affair at Ted Summerton Reserve, an old fashioned grind ensued between the two rival clubs. The game had feelings of a soccer-match such was the low scoring nature, and for a long while in the final term a draw looked very much on the cards. The Maroons peppered the goals in the last quarter, but had to lament having 20 scoring shots to 16 in the finish. While the parochial Moe Can Bar was more than happy to declare ‘the only thing better than beating Traralgon is beating them by a point’, even those most staunchly aligned to the Lions would have to admit their team was very lucky to escape with the win. The Moe players appeared to know this as well, and their reaction at the final siren was one more of relief than jubilation. That being said, the Lions showed good character to fight the way they did after being down multiple rotations heading into the last. Come three quarter time it was clear several Moe players were sore, and would need to dig deep to maintain its six point lead. Key defender Ben Maslen was in his tracksuit by this stage, while the Lions rolled the dice on midfielder Jordan Ceppi who did some run throughs and short kicks while the huddle was going on in a bid to prove his fitness. With Maslen out of action, Moe coach Declan Keilty rose to another level in the third quarter, denying Traralgon a number of scoring opportunities with many desperate smothers, spoils and pressure acts. Those who remember Alex Rance’s performance for Richmond against Sydney in Round 23 of the 2014 season where he repelled virtually everything that came his way in a match the Tigers needed to win to play finals may get an idea of the kind of game Keilty played. Traralgon showcased its hybrid ability, throwing usual defender Tye Hourigan forward and key forward Dylan Loprese up the other end. Hourigan took a few nice grabs inside 50 and kicked a classy goal from deep in the pocket during the third. The ball lived in Traralgon’s half for most of the final quarter. The Maroons played a high press in an effort to condense the ball, and looked prepared to win ugly even if it meant repeatedly pumping the ball inside 50 to try and manufacture something. A one handed mark from key forward Brett Eddy deep in the pocket on the outdoor cricket nets side proved to be the last genuine opportunity the Maroons had of scoring. The kick from Eddy was sent to the hotspot, where Traralgon players tried in vain to force it through to even salvage a draw, but the siren sounded a short time later. At the risk of delving into clichés, it was simply poor conversion that cost Traralgon, a thought shared by their coach Jake Best after the game. While Moe slammed on five goals to one in the first quarter to take an 18-point lead, the Maroons still had seven scoring shots but only managed 1.6 (12). Truthfully, the Maroons dominated most of the game after quarter time, with their fleet-of-foot system appearing to be well up and running during the third term. The match also seemed to defy logic in many ways, as a howling north-westerly would ordinarily mean the Can Bar end would be the scoring end, yet both teams only managed a combined total of 1.6 (12) kicking with it in the second half. Best for Traralgon was Hourigan, followed

Fan favourite: Moe captain Jacob Wood was among the best in his sides one-point victory over Traralgon. photograph julie sim by Tom Schneider, Mark Collison, Tate Marsh, Tom McMahon and Matt Northe. Keilty was judged best for Moe, while Ben Daniher, Harry Pepper (five goals), Trent Baldi, Ben Morrow, Jacob Wood and Harri Sim played well. Youngster Nathan Wheildon made his senior debut as did Dylan Brooks who has made the move from Hill End. If there is any silver lining to losing a match by a point, it could be that there is an ending to the misconception Traralgon is solely an uncontested team. For whatever reason this stigma has been attached to the Maroons for a long time, but under Best there is a definite hard edge about how they play their football. Although they sit 2-2, Traralgon players should be confident their system can match it with anyone in the competition, especially considering those two losses have been by seven points and now one point - the former of which was against Leongatha. For Moe, the response after the match would have been more pleasing than the match itself to coaching staff and supporters. There was no carry on from the Lions in the rooms which could be viewed as a sign of maturity. If Moe had of beaten Traralgon by a point five years ago they would have celebrated until the sun came up. With some injuries now on the list, onlookers will be interested to see how the Lions fare after questions were raised in the preseason over just how deep they bat, although the side should welcome back Tom Long and Tyson Biffin in the next few weeks. Long was picked to play this round but had to withdraw due to a COVID scare, while Biffin has done the running for the reserves in the last two weeks and looks to be moving well. Incidentally, it was the closest match between the two sides since Traralgon’s onepoint win over Moe in the 1972 grand final. MORWELL had a commendable win over Warragul. The Tigers put together a consistent fourquarter effort to defeat the Gulls by 53 points 11.18 (84) to 4.7 (31). Playing at home for the third week in a row, Morwell established a handy 14-point lead in the second term, which it was able to build on from there. The Tigers led at every change, and broke the game open in the third kicking five goals to one. Such a performance would have been pleasing to coaches Denis Knight and Boyd Bailey, as the young team took facets of what had served them well in patches the previous week against Traralgon and put it all together six days later. Brandon McAuliffe was best on ground for the home side, while Tyler Brown, Burkeley Macfarlane, Dan Musil, Cohen Campbell and Riley Loprese found themselves in the thick of the action. Brandon McDonald kicked three goals for the victors, and was one of seven players to hit the scoreboard. Best for Warragul was Nick Graham, Sean Masterson, Sam Whibley, Jed Lamb and Lane Ward. The Tigers have now evened their ledger to 2-2 and sit among a logjam of teams between fourth and seventh. With Warragul proving they are no walkover this season, having recorded a draw with premiership fancy Wonthaggi, the confidence Morwell should gain from this will surely count for something as they

are now faced with taking on the might of Leongatha. Given they are the youngest team of any in the competition, the Tigers could actually hold something of an advantage in going out and playing without fear week-to-week. This approach may well have helped Hawthorn win the 2008 grand final. By all reports the Hawthorn players reasoned that ‘Geelong have belted everyone this year, so what does it matter if they do the same to us?’ Sure enough, the Hawks, having no fear of the result, played with absolute freedom and won the premiership. In its preparation this week, perhaps Morwell will see Leongatha as the equivalent to Geelong. SALE won the traditional Battle of the Birds clash against Maffra. The Magpies swooped into the Eagles nest and flew away with the four points, winning a hard fought game 11.8 (74) to 8.8 (56). As with most contests between Sale and Maffra, a genuine war of attrition played out until such time one side found a chink in their opponents armour. For Sale, that came during the third quarter, where they were able to add five goals to one to take an 18-point lead heading into the last. This margin was exactly the same when the final siren sounded. Jack Leslie was best for the Magpies, followed by Shannen Lange (14 clearances), Will Leslie, Jack McLindin (25 disposals), Jack McLaren and Nathan Whitford. Hudson Holmes had 34 touches in a best on ground display for Maffra. Others to play well were Ed Carr (22), Kade Renooy (19), Tom Thatcher, Danny Butcher and John Butcher who kicked four goals. LEONGATHA made at least one journalist double check the scores to make sure they were entered correctly after seeing them for the first time. The Parrots did in fact kick 31.24 (210) to 4.2 (25) against Bairnsdale on their way to a 185-point annihilation. The margin was the equal highest for Round 4 in Gippsland League history. Oddly enough, the Parrots now hold the record for the greatest winning and losing margin in Round 4 of the Gippsland League having lost to Sale by 185 points in 2006. On that occasion, the Magpies kicked 33.27 (225) to 6.4 (40). It is unlikely anyone 16 years ago would have thought a worldwide pandemic would ever take out an entire football team, but unfortunately for the Redlegs, that is precisely what happened. Bairnsdale was unable to field a reserves team for the trip to Leongatha, and as a result, had to take a severely depleted senior line-up into the main game. The Parrots showed no mercy, and after an innocuous start, crucified the Redlegs with nine goals in the second quarter and 14 in the last. Leongatha had 14 individual goal kickers, led by Justin Pellicano who nabbed six and Aaron Hillberg and Jack Hume who each kicked four. Kieran Vickery, Byron Vickery and Randall Stewart battled hard for Bairnsdale. WONTHAGGI easily accounted for Drouin. The Power did as most expected, winning 16.16 (112) to 7.3 (45) away from home. The Hawks took it up to Wonthaggi in the first quarter, but could only hold on for so long before the dam wall opened. Jack Hutchinson was best in the win, and received good support from Jakeb Thomas, Jack Blair, Aiden Lindsay, Jye Gilmour and Toma Huther. Best for Drouin was Jarrod Marshall, Jordan Kingi, Tim Hancock, Harry Wans, Aden Quirk and Joseph Collins. Power coach Jarryd Blair did not play for the second week in a row. Although Wonthaggi sits outright third on the ladder with one loss to its name, there is already a feeling among Gippsland League pundits the Power have been perhaps a touch underwhelming in the early part of the season. Granted there is still a lot of football to go, and as ridiculous as it probably sounds, those trawling through the Gippsland League record would have noticed Wonthaggi did not submit any club notes last week. While it might seem trivial and of no great consequence on the surface, it is one of those jobs you can be sure a club like Leongatha or Maffra would have filled every single week.

Gormy rapt with Roughy

FOOTBALL NORTH GIPPSLAND By LIAM DURKIN

JARRYD Roughead has answered Gormy’s SOS. The former Hawthorn champion will play a one-off game for the intrepid Gormandale FootballNetball Club in Round 10 of the North Gippsland Football-Netball League this season. Roughead is scheduled to play for Gormandale on Saturday, June 18 against Glengarry at Gormandale Recreation Reserve. The Tigers started 2022 on a positive note in Round 1, winning their first game in four years, but since then have suffered consecutive losses by 236, 189 and 173 points. Roughead was secured by Gormandale as part of a promotional deal by brewing company Cartlon & United, who ran an initiative where eight ex-AFL stars were put into a pool and drafted to country clubs. Working under the banner ‘The Carlton Draft’ (a play-on words from Carlton Draught beer), country clubs put forward cases as to why they should be chosen to have one of the eight draft picks available. Having collected four wooden spoons in the last five seasons, Gormandale had little trouble attracting attention from those shifting through applicants. The Tigers were granted a pick, and submitted former Carlton and Adelaide excitement machine Eddie Betts as their first preference from the players available. The draft was televised on Fox Footy last Wednesday night, where Gormandale players and officials gathered at the Grand Junction Hotel, Traralgon to learn their fate. A collective ‘awww’ went around the sports bar when Betts was taken by another club, but this was quickly forgotten when the name ‘Jarryd Roughead’ was announced at Pick 5 a short time later.

The 2013 Coleman Medallist was presented a Gormandale polo shirt by Brisbane Lions great Jonathan Brown during the telecast, getting his first feel for the yellow and black. Speaking to The Express a day after the draft, Roughead, from Leongatha, said he was looking forward to venturing back to Gippsland to help out. “It aligned well that Gormandale picked me. It’s close to home, it’s a good chance to come back and play,” he said. “The opportunity to come back Gippsland way, it’s just a good chance to give back to country footy and what has been a crappy two years and no one winning a flag, hopefully there will be a lot of people there. “I’m at St Kilda (as an assistant coach) and Tim Membrey is involved at Glengarry, so I know the area quite well.” With his work at St Kilda and having played a handful of games last year alongside his younger brother for Inverloch-Kongwak in west Gippsland, Roughead believed he was match-ready for the rigours of North Gippy footy.

“Being part of a footy club you still have to get out there and train so it’s not like I haven’t been touching a footy for three years,” he said. “I’ve done a bit of research and seen that the boys (Gormandale) have been going okay this year, Churchill seem like they are the number one team.” Gippsland was well represented in the draft with Roughead joining Traralgon’s Brendon Goddard and Drouin’s Dale Thomas. Gormandale FNC president Daniel Earl said it was exciting to welcome a player of Roughead’s calibre. “It is probably one of the best results we could have hoped for so looking forward to it,” he said. “One of our fellas behind the scenes, Leigh Fabris, he does a lot of work, we all got together, wrote a letter into it and gave them our position where we’re at. It has been a struggle the last four/five years.” Despite the recent heavy losses, Earl said morale remained high at Tigerland. “To have three of the top four sides in a row is hard but at the same time with the younger generation around there is a good vibe around the place which is nice,” he said. “Off the field I’m still really ramming it home to the guys (players) that we are getting a lot of things right off the field and I think they are believing in the committee and what we are trying to do and they are repaying us by showing up and supporting us.” The support was evident by how many people were decked out in Gormandale colours at the Grand Junction to watch the draft. Such a turnout even took this writer by surprise. It certainly didn’t look like a club that was struggling. It only reinforced how much supporters keep a football-netball club together. As the days tick down, Gormandale will be hoping Roughead gives those supporters plenty to cheer about. Now the players just have to get the ball to him.
