Police prang court was a daily reminder of the crash. “I was grateful that I was the one who got all the major injuries,” he told the court. His passenger, a female friend of Ringwood East, was placed in an induced coma with a closed head injury. Her fractured and torn ankles have been causing ongoing impairment; she suffers depression and shortterm memory loss. Nicolopoulos had a recorded blood-alcohol reading of at least 0.128, the sample was taken about 90 minutes after the crash. He was a twice-convicted drink-driver, a P-plater who was required to have no alcohol in his blood when driving. He had also been ordered to only drive a vehicle fitted with an alcohol interlock device. Nicolopoulos, who has no memory of the crash or its lead-up events, was driving his mother’s car without an interlock device. The court was told he later bought her a $15,000 replacement vehicle. According to a police summary, Nicolopoulos had been out with friends the night before at two inner-city night clubs. CCTV footage had allegedly shown him drinking liquor from “various receptacles” on several occasions at one of the night clubs. While on the freeway, Nicolopoulos’s sedan was allegedly seen by a witness swerving in and out of the far left lane and the emergency lane. At court, the accused was flanked by about a dozen supporters. His character referees described him as “caring and compassionate”, “hard-working” and “takes responsibility”. His mother told the court Nicolopoulos “wouldn’t harm anyone”, and has supported her financially since his teens. Continued on page 4
By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A SERIAL drink-driver who crashed into the back of a police officer’s station wagon parked in a Monash Freeway emergency lane has been jailed for 90 days. Stephen Todd Nicolopoulos, 26, formerly of Hampton Park, pleaded guilty to a string of charges including reckless conduct endangering life and negligently causing serious injury as a result of the crash in Mulgrave at 5.36am on 6 July. The impact allegedly caused the unmarked Highway Patrol car to spin 180 degrees into the freeway’s left lane and face oncoming traffic, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court was told on Monday. Leading Senior Constable Aaron Gribble had been sitting in the car making notes after a traffic intercept; his car had had its driving and emergency lights on at the time. In his statement, Leading Sen Const Gribble stated the car was struck “without warning”. “It appeared to me, I was ‘spinning’ down the freeway ... I felt slightly dazed, but managed to work out that I was facing city-bound on the out-bound lanes and could see headlights coming towards me.” Leading Sen Const Gribble, who is married with three children, escaped with minor injuries. He assisted Nicolopoulos and an unconscious passenger in the other car, both of whom weren’t wearing seatbelts. “I asked the male driver if he had been drinking in which he mumbled, ‘I’m f ... ed’,” Leading Sen Const Gribble stated. Nicolopoulos’s bloodied head had cracked the windscreen in the estimated 94 km/h crash. He was hospitalised with a right knee laceration, knee tendon tear and has a scar over his right eye-lid - which he told the

Break-ins: two charged
Public housing hopeless By LACHLAN MOORHEAD AN ENDEAVOUR Hills woman who tried to apply for public housing in Casey has claimed she was told not to bother because there was a likely 16year wait. Single mother-of-four Catherine (who didn’t want her last name published) said she went to apply for public housing in June last year, but was told by an employee from the Dandenong public housing office not to bother completing an application. Her claim comes as media reports last week revealed that spending on social housing in Victoria was slashed by $247 million during the last financial year, despite there being 35,778 people on the waiting list in 2013, according to the Productivity Commission’s Report
on Government Services. The report indicated that the Victorian Government spent $256.8 million on capital expenditure for social housing in 2012-2013, compared with $503.8 million in 2011-12. Catherine, who is currently not working, said she didn’t apply for public housing after becoming disillusioned by the long waiting list. “I was actually quite devastated. I’m a single mum of four kids and I can’t afford private housing costs,” she said. “I was shocked that I’d have to wait that long because I didn’t know there was such a big demand. If I could get on the waiting list, I’d wait my turn, but to be told there was nothing for me was just unacceptable.” Volunteer carer from the Andrews
Centre in Endeavour Hills, Judy Martin, said Catherine was one of countless people she knew of in the City of Casey who could no longer afford to rent privately. She said the area suffered from a “chronic shortage” of public housing. “You don’t reduce the amount of public housing, or the amount given towards public housing at a time where there’s such a crisis,” Ms Martin said. A spokesperson for Housing Minister Wendy Lovell said the State Government had “worked hard” to reduce the number of people in the Casey region awaiting public housing. “Public housing is prioritised to those people who are in the greatest need. The waiting list for the Berwick region also includes those wanting to move into the area from other parts of the state,” the spokesperson said.
“The waiting time for public housing can depend on a variety of circumstances including the type, size and location that is required. “Victoria’s occupancy rate for public housing has remained high and has increased from 96.9 per cent in 2012 to 97.3 per cent in 2013.” The spokesperson said the drop in government expenditure on social housing was largely attributed to the completion of “time-limited” Commonwealth funding through nation building and the housing affordability fund.

POLICE charged a man with firearms offences following an incident in Tooradin last week. Police were involved in a foot chase with a 28-yearold man on Friday 28 March about 3pm. While running across the Tooradin footbridge, the man allegedly threw a backpack into the water. Police retrieved the bag and found a double-barrel, sawn-off shotgun with two live cartridges inside. The man was later located by police in a house in Tooradin. The man, with no fixed place of abode, was charged with a number of firearm offences. He has been remanded in custody to appear before the Frankston Magistrates’ Court this week.

AN avid reader of the magazine Street Machine since he was a teenager, Daniel Andrews had vowed that one day his car would grace the pages of the ‘horsepower bible’. Not only did that wish come true for the Devon Meadows car enthusiast this month, but he got one better as his HQ Holden one tonne ute made the front cover of the April edition. “I’ve been reading that magazine ever since I got my learners,” he said. “I’ve always said to my family and friends ‘one day my car will be there’. “It was a sort of a dream of mine. “To get in the magazine was great, let alone the front cover - I never expected that.” Mr Andrews, 27, started working on his car about four years ago.
1123241-PB12-14
He said he’d “hate to think” how many hours he had worked on building it but was thrilled to finally get it done. “I got married in November last year and had to get it finished by then,” he said. “I managed to get it all done two days before the big day and got to drive it to my wedding. “That was really great for me.” This month, Mr Andrews’ car is one of hundreds in the sixth Annual Dandenong Valley Holden Street Car Show to be held in at the Dandenong showgrounds on Sunday 6 April. The show will be held from 9am to 3pm, at Greaves Reserve in Bennet Street.

Skydiving teddies By BRIDGET COOK BRAVE teddies will head straight from the skies above Tooradin and into the arms of sick kids at the Royal Children’s Hospital (RCH) on Good Friday. The Australian Parachute Association and Commando Skydivers have organised a fundraiser for the Good Friday Appeal, with the aim of raising $20,000. Canopies for Kids will see tandem and solo jumpers skydive from Tooradin Airfield with a Dropbear Teddy strapped to their chests.
Each brave teddy will travel straight from the sky, safely to the ground and then into the arms of a child from the RCH, accompanied with a message of hope and goodwill from the skydiver. Experienced skydiver and event organiser Gary Tayler urged people to get involved. “This event is about more than raising money, it’s a chance to bring much needed hope to those who need it most,” he said. RCH nurse Kathryn Hamilton said the tough teddies would be a welcome gift to children

at the hospital. “A brave teddy to cuddle at night or squeeze during scary times will make a huge difference to these kids,” she said. “Knowing that these teddies have dropped from the sky just for them will make our patients’ journey to recovery even easier.” The public can get involved by arranging a tandem jump with a trained instructor on the day. Tandem jumps, from more than 10,000 feet, will cost $350 and with places selling out fast, organisers
have urged people to nominate a friend, colleague or challenge themself to take the plunge. Skydivers who have their sporting licence are also welcome to get involved with a solo jump to raise money. Each jumper will become an Everyday Hero and get a fundraising page to be able to source sponsorship on the RCH website. Those interested can register or donate at the Canopies for Kids website at www.canopiesforkids. com.au.
Defence lawyer Belinda Franjlic said a psychologist’s report described Nicolopoulos as having a rather ordinary way of life but when he let go, he did so in a “disinhibited” manner. Prosecutor Leading Sen Const Marie Eales said it was “mere luck he was not facing culpable death charges”. “He should not be licenced again”. The court was read a series of prior driving offences from three incidents in 2007-11. The list included two drink-driving offences, speeding and careless driving. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen noted Nicolopoulos had started drinking with friends at 12. By 14, the accused was imbibing “a bottleand-a-half of Jim Beam” - and maintained that until his first drink-driving conviction for a 0.155 blood-alcohol reading at 18. “You engaged in something that placed [Leading Senior Const Gribble] in danger of death,” Mr Vandersteen said. “I accept that you take responsibility for your offending. It’s just a shame that it took so long for this to occur.” Nicolopoulos’s hopes for joining the army’s special forces were cruelled by an ongoing knee injury. He used to run 30 kilometres a week in training for the forces, but can no longer run. Since the crash, he has sold parts of his nightclub promotion business to cover legal and medical costs. “Not at one stage have I thought I’d get compensation from the TAC. I don’t think I’m eligible because I don’t deserve it,” he told the court. “I’ve got no remorse for myself. “What I’ve done to these people and my own family ... There’s nothing else I can do to take that back except to voice how sorry I am to those I’ve affected.” Nicolopoulos was also sentenced to a 12-month community corrections order of 150 hours of unpaid work and drug-and-alcohol rehabilitation. He was banned from driving for three years, backdated to his immediate licence loss after last July’s crash - and was fined $200 for failing to display P-plates.

THE vision for the Thompsons Base Business Park was officially launched last week marking the first development in a future employment hub in Cranbourne West which could create up to 16,500 jobs. Minister for State Development Peter Ryan visited Casey last week to celebrate the launch of MAB’s Thompsons Base Business Park, which will create 800 jobs itself. The 19-hectare park will be the first industrial development in the broader 450 hectare Cranbourne West employment precinct. Once it is up and running, the Cranbourne West employment hub as a whole is predicted to create between 10,500 and 16,500 new jobs. Mr Hall said the Thompsons Base Business Park would boost the Cranbourne West economy and provide a place for local investors to set up new small businesses. “The new industrial estate has been welcomed by businesses wanting to set-up in the area, with MAB having already sold 19 lots worth more than $7 million,” he said. Mr Hall said the State Government recognised the importance of setting aside and protecting large tracts of employment land in growth areas - as was the case with the

David Bull Managing Director Australian owned family business since 1979.
Never-ending war WELL done to Mr Lance McDermott of Endeavour Hills for his letter (Not About Glory, News 20 March). I agree with him wholeheartedly. Sadly, the casualties didn’t end on the battlefield. For many veterans, the war never truely ended. Peace eluded them in life and (internal) scars never did fully heal. They, too, we remember. Also the women who served and those who waited at home with a patience and special courage that seems beyond the scope of those who see Anzac Day as war’s celebration and glorification.

JOHN Glazebrook’s claims that the Allied invasion of Turkey in 1915 was unwarranted and the campaign was a comprehensive defeat and that most Australians did not support the WWI effort are quite untrue. It was Turkey that declared war on the Allies and not the reverse. In the course of the Gallipoli campaign Turkey suffered over three quarters of a million casualities. Allied casualties were about half this figure. And whereas the Allies were able to absorb their losses and fight on to victory, the Turkish Army stumbled on to eventual disintegration and defeat. In 1914 almost all Australians supported the Allied cause but inevitably as time went on an increasing number felt that Australia had done enough. Nevertheless in 1917 the great majority still supported Australia’s participation - the issue was over whether this should extend to sending conscripts overseas to fight. The Allied failure at Gallipoli was a tragedy all round for had Turkey been defeated in 1915 the war would have ended at least a year earlier and Turkey would have been spared a further three years of war. Richard Bailey, Dandenong.
Dustbin of history MR JOHN Howard of Cranbourne (Voluntary Sacrifice For Empire, News, Thursday 27 March) states that I have “a unique and interesting view of Australian Great War commitment and sacrifice”. I refer Mr Howard to Professor Marilyn Lake’s and Professor Henry Reynold’s book What’s Wrong With Anzac: The Militarisation of Australian History. Both Australian historians and other leading scholars in Australian history, in this text, argue that the commemoration of the Anzac anniversary has seen historical fact replaced by mythology. The exact causes of World War I can be debated, but the Great War happened during a time of great imperialist rivalry between many countries, not just Germany, seeking to expand their empires and influence. It also happened when Australian foreign policy was still constitutionally dominated by Great Britain and when xenophobia had found expression in the White Australia policy. Mr Howard’s “domino theory” of Germany and the Great War has never ever been substantiated and should be relegated to the dustbin of history; where it belongs. John Glazebrook, Endeavour Hills.

Devon Meadows canine Paris enjoys the last dog days of summer. 118011 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS The campaign will see police saturate the state with 11 large scale operations targeting road safety over the next three months. For every person killed on Victorian roads, a further 20 are left with serious injuries. These are people’s brothers, mothers, sisters and sons and, for many of them, life will never be the same. Serious injury is the hidden toll of road trauma and each year close to 6000 Victorians are affected. Victoria Police and TAC invite the community to join with us, to take ownership of road safety and stand together as we work towards our mission of zero road deaths and zero serious injuries.

THE big ad in Sunday’s paper was ‘show your support by boarding the Dee Train’. As part of Melbourne’s City of Casey Round, the Dees will host a train from Pakenham. Cr Mick Morland to toss the coin. I thought the Dees’ training facility was at Casey and not Cardinia. Why on earth did the train not commence at Cranbourne rather than Cardinia’s Pakenham? Geoff Cousins, Cranbourne.

Ray’s
say
While neither of us have ever joined a political party, we usually support right wing politicians because our experience, since 1945, has been that left wing governments are only very good at one thing - squandering taxpayers’ money. However, if Geoff Ablett remains as the Liberal Party’s endorsed candidate for Cranbourne neither of us will vote Liberal since, in our opinion, he will be no better than the current Labor incumbent, who is known in Cranbourne as The Invisible Man. Allan and Elizabeth Tully, Cranbourne East.
Bandicoot boss I AM writing in response to the article Give a Hoot for the Bandicoots (Cranbourne News, 27 March). The Victorian government bandicoot strategy is currently in the process of being assessed and will be given thorough consideration under national environmental law. The Department of Environment has conducted further consultation on the strategy and the concerns raised will be carefully considered. The strategy will only be approved if it provides appropriate protection for populations of the bandicoot within the south eastern growth corridor. Protection of Australia’s threatened species is something I take seriously and very personally. We are facing a crisis in Australia with an ever-increasing number of native plants and animals faced with extinction. That is why I have announced that I will appoint a Threatened Species Commissioner this year. The commissioner will bring a renewed focus to practical action to secure threatened species in the wild and ensure that conservation efforts and investment are better targeted, better co-ordinated and more effective. Greg Hunt, Flinders MP and Minister for Environment.

Drugs raid By BRIDGET COOK A MAN had to be subdued with capsicum spray after he allegedly assaulted police during one of three raids across Casey last week. Drugs, firearms and illegal weapons were some of the items seized during three separate raids in Berwick, Endeavour Hills and Cranbourne. The first raid took place on Monday 24 March where police executed a search warrant at a house in Saul Avenue, Berwick. Police located drugs, believed to be both GHB and methamphetamine, an assortment of prohibited weapons and cash. The three occupants of the house, a 21-year-old woman and 20-year-old man both from Pakenham, and a Berwick man, 21, have been arrested and are assisting police with their inquiries. Police conducted another search warrant at a house in Skye Crescent, Endeavour
Hills, on Wednesday 26 March. Police seized a number of weapons, a loaded firearm and cannabis. Three Endeavour Hills men, aged 17, 23 and 39, were charged with drugs and firearms offences and have been bailed to appear at the Dandenong Magistrates’ Court at a later date. While police were at the address, a 19-year-old Endeavour Hills man showed up and was later charged following an alleged altercation with police. The man had to be subdued with pepper spray. He was charged with assaulting police and resisting arrest. He has been bailed to appear at the Dandenong Magistrates’ court on 3 June. Methamphetamine, weapons, firearms and cash were seized on Thursday during a raid at a house in Lonsdale Crescent, Cranbourne. A 28-year-old man, from Cranbourne, was charged with firearm, drugs and proceeds of
crime offences. He has been bailed to appear at the Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 17 August. Detective Sergeant Stuart Freeman, from the Casey CIU Drug Investigation Team, urged the community to keep an eye out for suspicious behaviour at houses in their area and report it. “Any information we get from the public, we actively investigate,” he said. “You can leave your information discreetly, and it is treated confidentially through Crime Stoppers. “We urge you to leave your contact details, which will be kept confidential, so we can verify things with you. “We would do ourselves a disservice if we were to treat your information with contempt, so you can be assured it will be treated with privacy.” Anyone with information about suspicious behaviour can contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Ward off on marathon run By BRIDGET COOK JAKE Ward plans to go the extra mile to raise money for breast cancer this year, as he gears up to run from Sydney to his Cranbourne home. In December, Mr Ward ran 110 kilometres around Casey and Frankston and managed to raise more than $8000 for the National Breast Cancer Foundation (NBCF). This year he will pull on his runners again and run 1000 kilometres from Sydney to Cranbourne with a target of raising $25,000. “I wanted to do another run because of the success from the first run,” he said. “If I wanted to raise even more money, I knew I had to go bigger and better for the next run - I’m just obsessed with raising as much money as possible. “At the end of the last run, I was so overwhelmed with the support of my family, friends and strangers; Facebook was going nuts and so many people came to visit or run with me. “My friends and family showed enough support throughout the day that made me want to do more runs. Plus my body didn’t breakdown, so I was very lucky there.”

Jake Ward is preparing to run from Sydney to Cranbourne to raise money for the National Breast Cancer Foundation. Like many Australians, Mr Ward’s family has been affected by breast cancer when his cousin Samantha lost her battle with the disease in 2006. Mr Ward said since then he had made a personal vow to do all that he could to raise money to find a cure for the disease. He said it would be hard to train for such an epic journey, but was just running as much as he could in preparation. Mr Ward will leave Sydney on Monday 29 September and
plans to run 65kms per day for 15 days and 25kms on the last day. He urged people and businesses to help out in any way they could including donations, accommodation, training equipment, food and drink supplies and clothing printing. Anyone wanting to donate can do so at www.everydayhero.com.au/jakeward or by getting in touch with Mr Ward at jakewardmotivation@gmail. com.

HAMPTON Park’s Jai Barnard would have to be one of the bestknown faces at the Casey Indoor Leisure Centre. The eight-year-old boy spends most of his week there, cheering on his beloved players, helping out in the office, assisting with timesheets and high-fiving players before they take to the court. On Saturday night he even stood at the front of the line-up of the Casey Cavaliers BigV team as they sang the national anthem before they took on the Mornington Breakers. Jai’s mother Kerry said it was all because the Casey Basketball Association has seen how much joy basketball brings to his life and have gone above and beyond to make him welcome. Jai was born with heart defect and spent the first 12 months of his life in the Royal Children’s Hospital. He underwent three open heart surgeries in his first year, he has a pacemaker and also had a tracheostomy for a couple of years. When he was about 18 months old he suffered from strokes and had to go without part of his skull for a period of time. He has since been left with brain damage, global developmental delay and mild cerebral palsy. Ms Barnard said Jai had an extremely tough start to life. “We were told many times that he wouldn’t make it and to prepare for the worst,” she said. “But he showed them all just how strong he was and he is still here. “Every day is a new chapter in his life, and he is still fighting and had major surgery coming
Jai Barnard lines up with the Casey Cavaliers BigV team on Saturday night. 117766 Picture: JARROD POTTER up again soon.” Ms Barnard said basketball has been a major part of Jai’s life and brings him so much happiness.
His love of the sport stemmed from when his two brothers took it up with the Berwick Flames. “He became their team mascot and they gave him a uniform and he would high-five all the kids before their game,” she said. Ms Barnard said since then he has become the mascot for the whole stadium and has received great support from the Casey Cavaliers and other teams. “One of the parents made him a referee top and they have arranged for an official badge to go on it,” she said. “Everyone at the stadium just accepts him for the way he is and have made every effort to make him feel special. “When we get to the stadium it’s like, ‘Jai is in the house’. “He goes into the office and helps them in there and when you walk around everyone is saying hi to him.” Ms Barnard said she has been overwhelmed by the support from everyone at the stadium and wanted to thank those who had welcomed Jai with open arms. “I don’t know half the people that make an effort with Jai,” she said. “It’s a really heart-warming story when you walk around the stadium with him. “I feel like he is teaching people down at the stadium as well that anything is possible. “I thank everyone from the bottom of my heart for what they’ve done. “You’ll never know how much it means to Jai and our family.” To follow Jai’s story search ‘Jai Barnard The Basketball Mascot’ on Facebook.
Double tap for helpers A NEW system has been introduced in Casey which helps organisations tap into the supply of willing volunteers. The City of Casey has introduced a new and improved Volunteer Matcher, which is now also compatible with mobile devices. The online program provided helps community groups and organisations match up with local residents who are willing to volunteer their time, skills and energy to help the community. City of Casey Mayor Geoff Ablett said the program has increased volunteering opportunities in Casey in an easy and accessible way. “Volunteer Matcher has been a great way to get residents involved with the community, council and local volunteer organisations,” he said. “It not only helps volunteers seek out places for them to contribute their time, but the website also makes it easy for volunteer organisations to recruit new people. “With its recent enhancements, the website is even easier to use, it is strictly confidential and organisations seeking volunteers can place an advertisement for free.” To see some of the current opportunities for volunteering within Casey or to advertise a volunteering position visit www.volunteermatcher.com. au.

Medicine DNA test helps out By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A DNA test which revealed how a woman suffering from depression was unknowingly taking medication that made her condition worse is being offered at a Casey chemist. The DNAdose, a genetic cheek swab test which determines a patient’s response to more than 50 per cent of prescribed medications, is now being trialled at Casey Central Chemmart Pharmacy. The test is believed to be a first in Australia. Casey Central Pharmacist Carolyn Wynen said the test identified four major enzyme systems in a person’s body and how these genes metabolised, determining why a patient’s body may react badly to certain medications. “The idea is to take that DNA sample and map what a person’s enzyme profile is,” she said. “What we’re finding is, because medicines are broken down by a certain pathway, if that person does not have the enzyme that allows that medicine to be broken down properly, it can result in toxic side effects.” Ms Wynen said the DNAdose results were then sent to the patient’s doctor to assist the GP in prescribing medication. The DNAdose, already a popular test in America, costs a once-off fee of $225, but is
Pharmacist Carolyn Wynen completed a DNAdose test on Carley at Casey Central Chemmart last week. Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS not subsidised by the Australian Government. Last month, Ms Wynen said she completed the DNAdose test on a woman suffering from depression whose body was rejecting her medication. “The result came back, and it revealed that she was such a slow metaboliser of that drug that it was just storing toxic levels in her body,” Ms Wynen said. “She broke down into tears, she said she couldn’t look after her kids, she wanted to sleep all day and she had put on weight. “The fact of the matter was that the doctor was thinking obviously that the depression was getting worse, but for her the reality was that the medicine was storing toxic levels in her body.
“My recommendation went to her psychiatrist with her results and a list of recommended medications.” A study by GenesFX Health has found that between 17 to 25 per cent of people metabolise their medicines too slowly, which can result in potentially severe side effects. Meanwhile, up to 30 per cent of people metabolise their medicines too rapidly, which can reduce the effect of the prescribed medicine.

Police were yet to identify the dark-haired woman but Det McIntyre said she was aged between her late teens and mid-twenties and did not appear to have been carrying any personal items. “She’s wearing dark-coloured shorts and a dark-coloured longsleeved T-shirt,” he said. “We don’t know whether she was carrying anything else with her. “She had been wearing a pair of white coloured slip-on shoes; those have been recovered from within the scene. “At this point in time we don’t know what type of weapon has been used.” Police extended the crime scene on Wednesday to take in Eumemmering Creek at the end of Lace Street, discovering some discarded clothing in the process.

Police combed Eumemmering Creek on Wednesday after the body was discovered underneath a tree in Lace Street, Doveton about 7am by factory employees who work in the industrial area. Detective Senior Sergeant Stephen McIntyre from the Homicide Squad said the woman had sustained cuts to her upper body from what appeared to be a “struggle on the roadway”. “The girl appears to have been assaulted and at this stage we’re treating it as a homicide,” he said. “She’s got some significant injuries to the upper body, we believe there was probably an edged weapon used in it, but what type and how many injuries she’s actually got we won’t know until a post mortem’s conducted later on.” Detectives are appealing for information in relation to the incident

Roadside rubbish takes toll on neighbourhood

A CRANBOURNE North woman has called on a nearby property owner to clean up their act and remove rubbish from their nature strip which is obstructing drivers’ vision. Julie, who did not want her last name used, has urged the owners of a house in Lawless Drive to clear the rubbish on their nature strip, with some of it having sat there for more than three months. She says the house is on a corner and has a long nature strip, with the

A CRANBOURNE family services provider has received a funding boost to continue their work in changing the behaviour and attitudes of men towards domestic violence. Relationships Australia’s Cranbourne office will receive $401,000 of funding over four years to deliver expanded voluntary men’s behaviour change programs in Casey, Cardinia and Greater Dandenong. The money will allow the organisation to educate 50 per cent more men on changing and managing their behaviour towards women and their family. South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Inga Peulich said the funding was going into the South East region as it was identified as an area that would benefit from an expansion of this service. “With family or domestic violence being one of the highest legal issues in the area, this type of preventative program is invaluable to local residents,” she said. Minister for Community Services Mary Wooldridge said money was going into areas across the state in areas that are in need of expansion in this area, with the aim of breaking the cycle of violence and reducing recidivism. Services are being expanded where there is a high incidence of family violence, where the incidence is increasing and where there are high rates of substantiated child neglect and abuse. “This funding will provide more than 1000 additional places in behaviour change programs for men who use violence,” she said. Ms Wooldridge said the programs were delivered according to the No To Violence minimum standards for running men’s behaviour change programs. Participants are assessed for motivation, intention and suitability for the programs, which include group work, as well as individual counselling, advocacy and support.

rubbish putting drivers in danger as it obstructs their view. Julie said the rubbish had also affected the amenity of the area. “There are two trailers on the nature strip, one piled high with rubbish and the other with green waste,” she said. “Up until a week or two ago, there was also couches and other furniture sitting there for at least three months. “You wouldn’t want to be trying to sell your house around here at the moment. The valuation would be down.”

Celebration of life OBITUARY Judith Barlow Born: 23 May 1945 Died: 18 March 2014 JUDITH Barlow will forever be remembered as a woman who lived life to the fullest, loved her family more than anything and who fought a courageous battle right until the end. The well-known Tooradin woman sadly lost her fight against cancer on Tuesday 18 March, aged 68, after a hard three year battle. But as hundreds of mourners packed Bunurong Memorial Park to say their final goodbyes last week, the focus was on her years before that as they celebrated her life. Ms Barlow, affectionately known as Jude, was born at the Glenhuntly hospital on the 23 May 1945 to Eric and Gladys Billingham. She had one sibling, her brother Gordon. Jude grew up in that area and did her secondary education at Brighton high which led her to become a stenographer with the government. She met her husband Terry Barlow at the Mentone Police Boys Dance in January 1959 and five years later they married on 17 October 1964 at St Paul’s in Bentleigh. It wasn’t before long that they had their three children, Anne, Steven and Kerri. The couple moved around a bit in the early years of their marriage to Noble Park, Five Ways and Yannathan, before settling in Tooradin about 30 years ago when Terry purchased the butcher’s shop. The Barlows stayed in Tooradin ever since, apart from the past few years where they spent a lot of time
in Tocumwal, and got involved in the local community. Jude was a member of the Devon Meadows school committee, a foundation member of the Tooradin and District Sporting Committee, served as secretary of the West Gippsland Netball Association, was a member of the Tooradin Netball Club and helped with the football club canteen and she volunteered with the local Meals on Wheels. Terry prepared a tribute to his wife which was read out at the funeral by close family friend Simon Marshall. He said he prepared it while sitting in his car on the foreshore in Tooradin as the sun went down, listening to Neil Diamond, something Jude had barred him from ever playing again because she had had enough of his music after many concerts and listening to it so much. Terry reflected on their 55 years together and their “amazing ride”. “We enjoyed all the highs and rode the many bumps that popped up along the way,” he said. “We worked bloody hard, played bloody harder, watching and supporting the kids all the way to where they are now. “Jude was so proud to be not only their mother but, more importantly, their best friend. “Jude lived her life to the fullest, she loved her luncheons with all the girls down here and it took her no time at all to find a group of girls with the same interests at Tocumwal.” Her family and friends spoke of her love of sport, with her trying her hand at tennis, tenpin bowling, squash and particualry golf over the years. She was also an avid Es-

Teen robbed
A TEENAGER was robbed by two youths on bikes in Hampton Park on Saturday. A 15-year-old boy was walking into a reserve, opposite the Hampton Park Shopping Centre, about 3pm when two young people rode past him on pushbikes. The two boys, about 16 years old, started an altercation with the victim before stealing his Sony mobile phone and backpack and rode off. It is believed about $600 worth of valuables were taken in the robbery. One of the offenders was described as Islander appearance, with short black hair, solid build, wearing shorts and a maroon jumper and riding a BMX. The other teenager was Caucasian and was riding a blue and white mountain bike. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
Two charged with dangerous driving
Well-known Tooradin woman Judith Barlow lost her fight against cancer on Tuesday 18 March. sendon Bombers supporter and as a teenager never missed a game with her friend Annette. But her biggest love was her family, her three children and her grandchildren, Ryan, Zoe, Ainsley, Zac and Kelsea. Terry said she also had many great friends and thoroughly enjoyed a party, dining out, lunches with the girls, music, dancing, reading, musicals, playing the pokies and talking on the phone. Terry took the opportunity to thank all those who had a great impact in Jude’s life.
“On our way through life together, through our many businesses, schools, golf clubs and Tooradin Football Club, we have met and made friends with so many great people, with some friendships that go back as far as 50 years,” he said. “If you were a friend of Jude’s you were a true friend for life. “So, my love, you leave us broken hearted, you will never be forgotten. “Rest in peace with your God and his angels, no more pain.” -Bridget Cook
POLICE charged two men following four separate pursuits in Casey, which police had to terminate due to their alleged dangerous nature. Police were involved in four pursuits between December and February, which did not result in any accidents or injuries. On each occasion, police were required to stop the pursuit due to the dangerous nature of the drivers. A 31-year-old man from Narre Warren South was charged with two counts of reckless conduct endangering people. A 24-year-old man was also charged with two counts of the same offence. Both men have been remanded in custody and are expected to face the Dandenong Magistrates’ Court later this month.
Narre Warren burglary POLICE charged a man and interviewed another in relation to an aggravated burglary in Narre Warren last month. A 26-year-old man from Lyndhurst has been charged following the aggravated burglary at Rolstone Court on Sunday 9 March. He was charged with one count of aggravated burglary, as well as assault related charges.

Pumpkin pump-up By BRIDGET COOK TOORADIN Primary School students showed off the fruits of their labour last week as the school held a giant pumpkin competition. Giant pumpkin seeds were sent home with students in October for families to try and grow the biggest pumpkin they could. On Friday, students brought in their best efforts to be judged in the competition. Tooradin Primary School teacher Rachel Davis said the activity was both fun and educational. “The competition was aimed at getting families involved in the fun of gardening, sharing a challenging experience together and maintaining student enjoyment of our own kitchen garden,” she said. “There were a wide range of entries on the day, ranging from some amazing giant pumpkins to families who got creative and substituted another giant vegetable instead.” The school also had a visit from local farmer Phil McCauley who brought in his prize-winning pumpkins for students to be amazed by. “Phil enjoys growing many giant vegetables and kindly donated giant vegetable seeds for students to grow in their school kitchen garden,” Ms Davis said. “The students were eager to ask him how he grew such big pumpkins and what they would need to do to grow their own vegetable mega-monsters for next year.” The students continued their fun with pumpkins this week when they held a ‘pumpkin drop’. Students had to try and drop their pumpkin closest to a target from the school’s multipurpose room balcony.
Tom Schreurs from The Rotary Club of Cranbourne presents Blairlogie Living and Learning chief executive Carolyn Carr with a cheque for $10,570 from the Black Caviar Phenomenon fundraiser.
Night’s a winner By BRIDGET COOK

THE Rotary Club of Cranbourne’s most recent event had great form to be a successful fundraiser - full house, deeps pockets and centred around one of the best racehorses of all time. And it did not disappoint, with the club raising more than $10,500 at the Black Caviar Phenomenon event held at the Clover Cottage restaurant on 27 February. All money raised from the event has gone to Blairlogie Living and Learning in Pearcedale towards its work in supporting people with a disability. Rotary Club of Cranbourne president Lea Corrigan said it was a great night at which former rotary member Colin Madden and his wife Jannene, who is a member
of the Cranbourne Inner Wheel, shared their story as part owners of Black Caviar. “The night was a sell out, with more tickets needed than were available,” he said. “The Maddens came to tell us how this incredibly lucky purchase of Black Caviar changed their lives. “Colin concentrated on the horse and its achievements and left Jannene to tell of their meeting with The Queen and other members of the royal family. “The horse’s incredible record puts it into Australian folklore only matched by Phar Lap and few others.” Mr Corrigan said the night was a huge success in terms of fundraising and was a great outcome for all involved.

Day in, day out, I would wear the same sort of baggy clothes. I didn’t like going clothes shopping because I knew I wouldn’t look good in anything. I also dreaded going out to functions, I didn’t feel comfortable and always thought to myself that Ï’m the biggest person there. In May 2011 I made a decision to join Weight Watchers to

or distant body sites. However they can spread locally across the skin and destroy skin and cartilage. Basal cell cancers can be
very disfiguring if not detected and treated early, especially on the face. They typically appear as pink flat or raised lesions on the skin and bleed and ulcerate easily. They are not usually itchy or irritating and people often don’t realise they have them – especially on the back. We would recommend an annual whole body skin check and report any pink/bleeding lesion to your doctor sooner than later. The Sun Patrol Skin Cancer Clinic is at 48 Van Der Haar Avenue, Berwick.

right food choices, which includes learning and understanding what your body needs, balanced with the right type of exercise. It sounds easy and it can be for those who are guided in the right way and supported throughout the process. People should simply ask themselves how many times in the past they have started an exercise program only to find it going nowhere? Why couldn’t they reach the next stage? The answer isn’t always obvious so here are some facts to remember. 1. Research shows that more
BASAL cell cancer of the skin is by far the commonest cancer of any type in paler skinned populations. In Australia they appear in people as young as their late twenties. Well over 50 per cent of the population will have had one by the time they reach their sixties. They are very much a suninduced cancer occurring on all the body sites most commonly exposed to the skin, especially the face and upper trunk and limbs. They are a less aggressive skin cancer and are relatively slow growing. It is very rare for them to spread to lymph glands

than 80 per cent of people who start an exercise program drop out in the first six to eight weeks. 2. It’s hard on your own. 3. Memberships don’t achieve results - individualised programs do. 4. Without the right guidance and support, education is minimal. Getting started is the first step to success. However getting started the right way ensures continued success. Just like anything new, the right entry level is critical. Would anyone take a chance by sky diving without lessons? Vo2 Express’s results based program ensures people get started on the right exercise journey that is tailored specifically for them. They will meet with their own trainer who will provide them with ongoing support and guidance ensuring they are achieving their fitness results. The benefits of a proper exercise routine are: - Lose weight and keep it off; - Time flies when people are having fun and exercise doesn’t have to be boring; So why wait any longer, let Vo2 Express staff help.

OVER the years Daniel Fabien, a personal trainer at Vo2 Express, has been asked “what’s the easiest way to lose weight?” His general answer is there isn’t one. What works for one person isn’t a guarantee that it will work for the next. He also adds that there are lots of diets, fads and magic pills that are advertised daily to wow the consumer with the miracle cure. Everybody wants instant results with little effort. This is where the yo-yo phenomenon comes from consumers will try these in the attempt to lose weight which initially they will as they cut out important nutrients or minimise their food intake. However, in time this becomes too difficult to maintain as their body starts to rebel against the changes and their lifestyle doesn’t permit such strict rules, so they find themselves searching for the next best thing. Unfortunately during this stage more weight is gained, motivation drops and the harsh reality hits that there is no magic cure. As a result they gain the weight they lost plus a few more kilos, hence the up and down journey. So what is the answer? Put quite simply, the best way to fitness is to make the

Leaders search for insight PA GROUP of Casey’s budding politicians, lawyers and public servants visited Parliament House this month to get an insight into how the government works. The 10 Casey students were chosen for the 2014 Australia Day Study Tour, which aims to give them the opportunity to learn more about the three tiers of Australian Government. The group visited the City of Casey Civic Centre in Narre Warren to learn about local government and spent a day at Parliament House in Melbourne learning more about State Government by meeting politicians, touring the facilities and attending a sitting of parliament in both the Legislative Assembly and the Legislative Council. Last month they flew to Canberra to learn more about the Federal Government at Parliament House for four days by meeting with politicians, including leaders of both parties and attending sittings of Commonwealth Parliament. Holt MP Anthony Byrne got to meet the local participants in Can-
berra and said it was a great honour. “One of the best things you are able to do as an MP is to engage vibrant, intelligent young people in dialogue,” he said. “It is exciting and challenging to talk about young people and about Australia’s future, particularly with young people who have passion, energy and ideas. “After our discussions, I am very sure about the future of our region, given the quality of the young people and the conversation we had. “The questions put to me were probing and intelligent. “I sincerely hope that a number of these young people, who are learning about community leadership and participation, will want to get involved in the political process.” The students participating in the 2014 Australia Day Study Tour are Stephen Capon, Samantha Chapman, Kelsy De Prada, Sarah Dunstan, Sitarah Mohammadi, Mason Peatling, Nelson Phan, Arnhie-Marie San Juan, Asanga Seneviratne and Wali Sultani.

Focus on Casey youth KIDS from Casey are being encouraged to get involved with the upcoming National Youth Week. The week runs from Friday 4 April to Sunday 13 April, and the City of Casey is organising a range of events for children to celebrate the occasion. National Youth Week is a joint initiative organised by all levels of government and provides young people with an opportunity to express their views and act on issues that affect their lives. “Young people make a significant contribution to our community, and National Youth Week is a great way to acknowledge this,” Casey mayor Geoff Ablett said. “More importantly, all activities and events are fully supervised, drug, alcohol and smoke free.” National Youth Week will also play host to Casey council’s annual Rock ’n’ Skate
Jamie Symonds is playing Aladdin and Aadyn Goodlet is playing Genie in BATS Theatre Company’s upcoming production.
Aladdin mystery show deepens By BRIDGET COOK BATS Theatre Company will bring to life the magic and mystery of Aladdin during the April school holidays. Cranbourne Community Theatre will come alive with an adaptation of the traditional Aladdin story, presented by a talented youth cast. Jamie Symonds is playing the role of Aladdin and Aadyn Goodlet has been cast as the Genie, with the show being directed by Susan Bergman and assisted by Thomas Out. Jamie’s mother Jacqui Symonds said the cast and crew had put in a lot of hours for
the past couple of months and urged people to head along and check out the show. “It is shaping up to be a very entertaining show,” she said. “This show is not just for the young ones either, it is great entertainment value for only $12 a ticket. “There’s a little intrigue, mystery, action and, of course, a little romance.” The adapted story, by Adlib Entertainment, follows the story of street urchin Aladdin as he tries to save the small but thriving Daily Scroll from Arabian newspaper mogul, Gassin. He is not able to do much with just the clothes on his back and an old lamp, until he
realises the lamp is magical and gives him three wishes. As the genie appears, chaos follows and Aladdin is thrown into the world of big business and true love. There will be five shows between Tuesday 8 and Friday 11 April at the Cranbourne Community Theatre, corner of Brunt Street and Codrington Street. Shows will be at 7pm on the Tuesday and Thursday and at matinee at 2pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday. To book tickets call 0422 096 768 or visit http://tiny.cc/a6hobx. Tickets will be available at the door, if not sold out prior.
Festival on Saturday 12 April, held at both The Shed Indoor Skate Park and The Factory Rehearsal Centre for the Arts. This event will raise the awareness of issues affecting young people, including depression and anxiety, while promoting this year’s theme for National Youth Week - ’Our Voice. Our Impact’. The festival will also include a free scooter, BMX and skate competition organised by YMCA South Eastern Skate Park Series. Meanwhile, the festival’s major sponsor 7-Eleven will supply Slurpee voucher giveaways and great prizes for participants. For more information about National Youth Week including the Teenage School Holiday Program, Casey 360 bus and a full list of activities, visit www.casey.vic.gov.au/youth or Council’s Youth Services Facebook at www.facebook. com/caseyyouth.

The day will include the planting of 700 Indigenous trees and shrubs in the reserve, Melbourne Water water watch activities, bird watching with local experts as well as face painting, showbags, giveaways and lunch. PPWCMA Living Links coordinator Mary-Kate Hockey said the day was for anyone who would like to learn about, help or simply enjoy their local environment. “People of all ages are welcome to come along to plant some plants, talk to local wildlife experts or simply enjoy the
free activities and lunch,” she said. “The River Gum Creek Reserve and wetland is a beautiful area. “We hope this day will help the community to further appreciate their local area and learn how to protect it.” The event is one of many activities run through the PPWCMA’s Living Links project. The day is funded through the Victorian Government and the Environment Protection Authority’s Inspiring Environmental Solutions Program. The event will run from 9am to noon on Saturday 5 April at the River Gum Creek Reserve, Kilberry Boulevard, Hampton Park. It is the park located next to Kilberry Valley Primary School.

Bands set to rock CRANBOURNE Public Hall will rock with live music tomorrow night for the FReeZA Fringe Fest. Spectrum Entertainment, Casey’s FReeZA committee of young people, aged 12 to 25, have organised a great line-up of bands for the popular event on Friday 4 April. Storm the Sky will headline the festival, which will run from 6.15pm to 11.15pm this Friday night. The supporting acts include Elegist, Void of Vision, Exposures, Danger, Earthquake, Heathercross and Stuck Below. City of Casey mayor Geoff Ablett said FReeZA was a State Government program which en-
couraged youth to get involved with their community by planning and running drug, smoke and alcohol-free music and cultural events for other young people. “Casey’s Fringe Fest not only gives young and emerging talent the opportunity to display their musical talents, but it also gives the community an occasion to enjoy great music at a safe and supervised event,” he said. Cost to the event is $12 or $10 with a pass. Passes are available from all City of Casey youth information centres and customer service centres. For more information, call City of Casey on 9705 5200 or visit our website www.casey.vic.gov.au/ youth.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
David Murphy, here with a chassis for a ‘B-double’ truck, is buoyant about his Hallam-based business TRJ Engineering.
Picture: ROB CAREW
Engineering firm defies odds By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A HALLAM engineering business is proving resilient despite the negative speculation that is clouding the future of the manufacturing industry in Australia. TRJ Engineering, which turns 40 in 2014, was last year crowned a Casey Business Award winner and continues to be a pioneer in its field of engineering. Manager David Murphy inherited
the business from his father 15 years ago, and has since been pivotal in raising TRJ Engineering’s profile to see it become a leader of manufacturing in Casey. Mr Murphy said the number of employees at the business had now increased to over 30. “We build a lot of stuff for the city of Melbourne, including street furniture, truck chassis and earth moving equipment.
“We’re pretty diverse in what we actually do. “We also design items for customers which has kept us going throughout the years. “We’ve had to change with the demands of the customer, they usually have an idea of what they want on paper, but they need help, so we take over.” TRJ Engineering’s range of services has certainly grown over the years and now encompasses laser and guillo-
tine cutting, welding, metal fabrication and brake pressing. Mr Murphy said 2013 was a tough year for all manufacturers, but he was buoyant about TRJ Engineering’s recovery. “Last year, everyone took a whack on the chin, but this year we’re well above sales targets and things are going pretty well,” he said. “We have ongoing contract work, transport related.”
Mr Murphy’s positive business outlook also extended to neighbouring companies in the Hallam industrial area, which, he said, were all overseeing an upturn in the market. “We’ve now been in Hallam for 17 years, but when we first came in there was no one around, now its thriving, it’s a desirable estate,” he said. “The engineering businesses on this part of the street, on either side of us, all seem to be extremely busy too.”
Ray White Employers need new outlook says analyst takes leap in sales stakes By CASEY NEILL
A CRANBOURNE real estate office has been named as one of the country’s top performers. Ray White Cranbourne placed 13th in the 2014 Real Estate Business (REB) Top 50 Sales Offices benchmark report last month. Last year, the office was ranked 35th in the same report. The report ranks real estate sales offices across Australia according to a range of financial year business metrics, including sales volumes, sales dollars and listing numbers. According to the report, Ray White Cranbourne sold 343 properties in the 2012/2013 financial year, totalling more than $132 million. The businesses’ eight salespeople were able to sell 72 per cent of the properties they put on the market. REB publisher Tom Sullivan ranking provided insight into what the top performing offices do to stay ahead of their competition. “The results are testimony to the hard work and leadership shown by principals, many of which operate in incredibly tough and competitive markets,” he said. “This report highlights some of the most effective and productive sales offices in Australia, and incorporates an array of businesses from various parts of the country, including regional areas. “The goal of this benchmark ranking is to look beyond just sales figures and provide a clearer insight into how these successful businesses operate.”
EMPLOYERS in Melbourne’s south east need to change their attitudes and think outside the square. This was the message from Ivan Neville who spoke about recruitment challenges at the South East Business Networks (SEBN) breakfast on 27 March. The Department of Education, Employment and Workplace Relations (DEEWR) labour analyst also participated in a questions and solutions panel alongside Anita Francis from the Department of Human Services (DHS), Todd Hartley from
Hilton Manufacturing and Terry Breheny from Link Employment and Training. To finish, all attendees got out butcher’s paper and textas to brainstorm solutions to recruitment scenarios. SEBN manager Sandra George said the morning aimed to find a better match between what employers wanted and the available workforce. The South East Melbourne priority employment area (PSE) is one of 21 regions recognised as vulnerable to slow-downs in the economy. Mr Neville said a recent survey of local employers showed they
needed to change their expectations, particularly around experience. “Employers need to understand the labour supply in this area and manage expectations,” he said. “We’re ruling out people who actually might have what it takes.” He said employability skills were vital and training and experience could follow. More work experience would improve young people’s employability skills, he said. Mr Neville also urged employers to look beyond traditional sources of labour, to the ageing workforce in particular, and improve workplace flexibility through part-time posi-
Margaret Brabham from CRS Australia, Jill Wardle from AMES and City of Greater Dandenong’s Melda Rasool and Toby Sargent brainstorm. 117645
tions and phased retirement. He said better utilising the migrant population would also reduce unemployment. More than 26,500 migrants have moved into the region over the past five years. About 25 per cent of these migrants of working age from “other than majority English speaking countries” have a degree. “We are not taking advantage of their skills,” he said. “These people are occupying jobs that could be filled by people who don’t have their skills or qualifications.”

Destined to be well By BRIDGET COOK CASEY youths have been urged to pull on their runners, grab their ‘passports’ and make their way to Destination Wellbeing. The City of Casey is hosting the free event at Casey Fields on Wednesday 9 April which aims to raise awareness about the challenges facing young people. Destination Wellbeing will bring together activities and stalls from a variety of well-known local organisations which are keen for participants to have fun while gaining new ideas, resources and celebrating National Youth Week. Some of the stalls will include the council’s Youth Services team and the 360 bus, Headspace, South East Alcohol and Drug Service, Disability Sport and Recreation’s WheelTalk School Awareness Program, Cricket Victoria and the Melbourne Stars. City of Casey mayor Geoff Ablett said he was ecstatic to host the event and he couldn’t wait to participate in the fun activities on the day. “Approximately 60,000 young residents, aged 10 to 25 years, call the City of Casey home and this number is set to skyrocket to more than 70,000 by 2020,” he said. “Council is committed to supporting young people and providing opportunities each and every day to enhance the physical, social and emotional development of young people and this event is one fun way to raise awareness for something that is so close to my heart. “This innovative event will be unlike anything held in our municipality; I encourage all young people

Man faces water meter theft charges By CASEY NEILL A DOVETON man faces 57 charges over a string of water meter thefts in Greater Dandenong and Casey. Greater Dandenong Tactical Anti-Crime Team (TACT) Constable Andrew Bierwirth said police recovered the devices from metal re-
cycling yards where they had been sold for scrap. “Some of the charges go back to the end of February,” he said. “The water meters have a serial number on them. From speaking to South East Water, they were able to tell us the location where they’d been installed.
“Then we could go and match them to theft reports.” Police said factory and warehouse managers had been arriving at work to find they had no water because their meters had been stolen. They then had to send staff home for the day without pay. South East Water asset creation
general manager Charlie Littlefair said 87 customers had reported their water meter stolen since 1 January. There were 184 meters stolen in the South East Water area last year. The charged man was bailed to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 23 May.
$3000 spree on stolen card TWO men smashed a car window and stole a handbag sitting on a seat, before using the stolen credit card to buy $3000 worth of goods. Overnight between Thursday 20 and Friday 21 March, a car window was smashed on a 2013 Mazda parked outside a house in Bellevue Drive, Berwick. A handbag, which was in plain view on the car seat, was stolen. Credit cards that were in the stolen handbag were then used at businesses in Scoresby, Ferntree Gully, Wantirna, Ashburton and Dandenong. About $3000 was spent in total. Police have released images of two men they wish to speak to in relation to the incident. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Collins is all class By JARROD POTTER
ST PETER’S College Year 12 student Jaide Collins, 17, from Cranbourne South, has aced her way back into the School Sport Victoria (SSV) 18-andunder tennis team to compete for the Australia Cup. Heading off to Perth early next month for the School Sport Australia championships - Collins goals for the tournament are simple. She wants to improve her game and become one of the more prominent and reliable players on the Victorian team. “The more senior players aren’t there this time so I get the chance to be one of those more experienced players on the team,” Collins said. “Leadership role - there’s three players in Year 12 and I’m one of them. “Showing the people the ropes and helping pick the teams.” Getting through qualifying, despite a back strain keeping her off the court on the final day of selection, Collins hopes she can become the number one ranked player for Victoria’s SSV team and help guide them to victory. “Hopefully I can get number one (seed) in the team and become captain and win the Aus Cup this year,” Collins said. “It’s hard to say, but we have a pretty strong team so we have a good chance.” Playing in the Asia-Pacific Tennis League in the Victorian division, Collins played for the Waverley Warriors and kept busy throughout the summer by heading to a collection of regional toptier tournaments.

Jaide Collins wants to step up as a leader for her final Australia Cup Picture: JARROD POTTER campaign with School Sport Victoria. 117877 As all VCE students this time of year tend to do, Collins has started thinking about her academic future - with a move to America to play college tennis on the cards. “College tennis - that’s something I’ve been looking at a lot - at the moment
I’m hoping to go to Middle Tennesee State, so that’s my hope for the future,” Collins said. There’s no rest for Collins as she heads to tournaments over the school holidays - going to Bendigo and Rosebud.
Every kick counts
CRANBOURNE captain Marc Holt couldn’t believe it after the Eagles went down to Narre Warren by a point in last year’s grand final with the very last kick of the season. Images like these will be forever etched in the minds of local football fans as the greatest finish in the history of the local game put an unbelievable exclamation mark on the season. Well it all starts again on Saturday when the Eagles travel to ROC to begin their long trek back to the top of the football mountain. Can Holt and new-coach Scott Sutherland bring home the silverware or will the Magpies make it a three-peat of flags? Turn to page 58 for a preview of all the round one action, and for a fully comprehensive look at the season, including a look at the top 25 players in the Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS league, grab a copy of this week’s Pakenham-Berwick Gazette. 106300
A PREMIER recruit has gone to a premiership side in Dandenong District Cricket Association with Parkfield premiership captain Steve Spoljaric heading to Casey Fields in 2014/15. A week on from playing the all-round match of his life, batting the Bears out of trouble in the DDCA Turf 1 grand final with 106 before snaring 4/49 with the ball, Spoljaric has left Dunblane Reserve and will head down the South Gippsland Freeway to join Cranbourne. Spoljaric said the time was right to head off with Parkfield strong on the field and Cranbourne on the rise into the top division. “They had a chat to me the previous season and they showed their interest, but they didn’t make it (to Turf 1),” Spoljaric said. “This year they made it and… what happened to us was a bit of a surprise… I had a think about things and thought I’d done this and that and I think I’ve left them (Parkfield) in a healthy state on field. “They’ve got enough talent to see them through, provided they stay together over the next few years… it was time to move on.” The 2013/14 Wookey Medalist - his third in four seasons - will be part of a bumper squad for the newly promoted Turf 1 team Cranbourne, which features former Buckley Ridges allrounder Te Ahu Davis. “When you do your research they shouldn’t have been in Turf 2, but hopefully a little bit of my direction and we can turn them
into a powerhouse like they should be,” Spoljaric said. “Just happy for the fresh start… it’s going to be good fun… I’m there for two years and I hope I can get them on a very dominant path.” Looking back on his time at Parkfield, Spoljaric was rapt with the medals he’d won individually but loved getting the side a premiership and was still thinking about his run-out of Springvale South’s Aaron Morison in the grand final. “That little cheeky run out was the highlight for me,” Spoljaric said about the grand final win. “Doing something that only I knew what was going on at the time - everyone else was probably wiping their eyes, wondering what happened then.” Cranbourne Cricket Club president Shaun Petrie said the allure of Spoljaric isn’t just his on-field contributions, but his ability to help develop the group as a player with Premier Cricket experience. “It’s a bit of a coup isn’t it,” Petrie said. “I’ve been working on it for quite a long time, so it’s a recruiting coup and he’s a ripping bloke too. “It’s not just about his cricket, but it’s about having someone who has succeeded at a really high level and knows it will rub off on the rest of the boys.” Spoljaric, also a former Ryder Medal winner in Victorian Premier Cricket, finished up his time at Parkfield with 3055 runs and 117 wickets including nine centuries and three six-wicket hauls.

City enjoys healthy bounce Casey’s dim view of defeat DANDENONG CITY fired off a 4-3 victory over Brunswick City to rebound up the ladder after a disappointing round one loss to North Geelong SC. The City of Casey’s highest ranked FFV club, based at Frank Holohan Reserve in Endeavour Hills, bettered its record to 1-1 with the win and pushes up to sixth in the NPL1 competition. Dandenong City’s frontline strikers kept the game alive after goals from Brunswick’s Dimitri Vithoulkas, Denis Sadik and Nicholas Terezakis. It left a fight-back in earnest as Keegan Ziada slotted his second of the season, with Damien Miskulin, Goran Jozeljic and
By JARROD POTTER CAN Casey be beaten? Eleven matches into the season, Casey’s senior men, women and youth men’s teams have kept losses off their ledgers. Casey’s rout of Mornington Breakers in an exciting tripleheader left all the Cavaliers teams towards the top of their respective ladders three rounds into the season. Casey men had the toughest night on the card, fighting out of a double-digit deficit to record a thrilling 86-80 win. A 29-19 last quarter showed Casey can finish the job when it is forced to chase. Monster games from Matt Pebole (28 points six rebounds) - playing without a break throughout the match - and Jono Hawes (19 points, seven rebounds) pushed the scoreline back in Casey’s favour while captain Dean Johnson (four points, 16 rebounds, five blocks) was a towering problem the Breakers could not break through. Cavaliers’ women dispatched a dogged Breakers outfit 55-38 with guard-pair Sammy Johnson (11 points) and Lara Pauline (10 points) leading the score-sheet. Mornington fought back in the fourth quarter to reduce the

WOMEN’S PREMIER LEAGUE Casey Comets and Cairnlea split the points in a 1-1 draw. Leading from the front, Lara Croft (34’) levelled the scores after Cairnlea’s Aneta Komijat (16’) scored early. Neither side could break the deadlock from there, leaving each to take a point from the encounter. Casey Comets WPL faces
Box Hill at home on Friday night from 8.30pm. STATE LEAGUE A Marce Janneker brace allowed Casey Comets men to open its State League 1 South East campaign in fine style over Doncaster Rovers. Comets head to Warner Reserve to face South Springvale. In the cross-town showdown, Doveton SC easily accounted for Berwick City in a 4-0 drubbing. Aleksandar Dukic, Grant Lane, Matt Williams and Ioasa Saemo made it a cakewalk for the visiting Doves. Doveton hosts Nunawading City while Berwick City travels out to Beaumaris.

IN very warm conditions, ten Casey netball teams competed in the Mountain District Tournament at the Knox Regional Netball Centre. The 17 Spirit side enjoyed a sleep in, beginning their day on the court at 10.40am and it worked well for the Casey girls who continued their unbeaten form, accounting for their opponents in convincing fashion, the girls let their netball do the talking defeating Mountain District by five goals. It was also a positive day for the 13 Purple team, winning seven of their matches and finishing fourth. The girls just kept improving as the day went on, making for a very happy coach. The 15 Angels had a fantastic day only dropping one game and going on to contest the grand final against Banyule. In a high scoring match, the Angels lost 17-14.

Sharks in the swim By JARROD POTTER GLASGOW might have an influx of Casey TigerSharks’ swimmers if results fall their way at this week’s Australian Swimming Championships. Serving also as Commonwealth Games selection trials, the meet will have six TigerSharks in its midst in the Brisbane-held championships. TigerSharks’ head coach Ben Hiddlestone said the best chances of his TigerSharks’ troupe come from butterfly/backstroker Mitch Pratt and the 200-metre backstroke showdown featuring Tooradin’s Josh Beaver and London Olympian Matson Lawson. “We’re optimistic,” Hiddlestone said. “They do a lot of time in the altitude tents and it’s just a matter of staying confident now. “I’d be happy if they all swam personal best times - if they did it would put most of them on the team. “It’s a big deal, but the reality is they have to swim a personal best time “Same as our 12-year-olds… got to swim the personal best time - just at the level if they do it they will get on the team and even if they swim their bests and don’t make it - that’s the best they can do.” The return to the water of Beaconsfield’s Holly Brettle - the Victorian record holder for the women’s 400-metre individual medley - has been nothing short of remarkable after breaking her hip last year. “Holly with broken hip - not expecting great results - but it’s a major achievement for her to get back into the water against the best,” Hiddlestone said. “If she can make a couple of finals then we know her recovery is really on track.” The next generation of Australian-standard swimmers will be taken up by Hiddlestone - with 15-year-olds Bowen Gough and Shaun Banzon getting their first taste for national open-age competition. “We’re taking two young ones up,” Hiddlestone said. “They’re both 15 so they’re not old enough to compete successful - but they’re old enough to compete and we worked out that if you went only when you were old enough you weren’t prepared for it. “Going to national open champs and if we’re looking at Rio (Olympic Games) there’s only three opens left until Rio so they’d be missing out on a third of the process.” The championships will be televised live on ONE-HD each evening from Tuesday 1 April to 6 April from 7.30pm.

STINGRAYS, state representatives and likely draftees have risen to the top of Hallam Senior College’s football program. Coaches Manny Peresso and Brett Alexander’s football academies have found their captains and leadership groups for 2014. The boys team will be led by Dandenong Stingrays/Narre Warren midfielder Ben Giobbi and Matt Scoczynski and the girls will be headed up by Victorian Youth Girls representative Jenna Edwards and All-Australian Karly Tapner Giobbi, who is a couple of months off with recovery from a hip injury. Giobbi said the honour of captaincy was siginificant as he had always looked up to the past captains of the school. “It’s a good achievement for me and definitely one of my proudest moments,” Giobbi said. “A lot of good captains have come through here like Jack Scoczynski and other people like that and it’s a pretty good achievement to lead the school and get us into a higher grade again this year.” Tapner and Edwards said it was a great honour to lead the women’s team and hopefully take them back to the state championship grand final and win back the title. “Yeah it’s pretty good, we’ve got a pretty good legacy with all the captains we’ve had, so developing a lot more girls this year is a pretty big honour,” Tapner said. “Especially with all the hard work Brett puts into it, to put faith in us to lead the girls is amazing.” “Redemption from last year - we want to get back to state finals and hopefully we take it back home after winning the past three except for last year,” Edwards said.

Eagles core to soar By DAVID NAGEL
Rohan Welsh will have a lot of youth in his side this season as Casey Scorpions recruited heavily from the TAC Cup ranks. 101542 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS
Go young, go early THIS season Casey Scorpions have gone young. The baby-faced VFL Scorpions feature a number of TAC Cup alumni from the Dandenong Stingrays and Gippsland Power, including ex-Stingrays Matt Rennie and Dale Gawley and Gippsland Power ball magnets and hard nuts Garfield’s Eddie Morris and Ellinbank’s Nate Paredes. Fresh off a premiership with Narre Warren is former Stingrays defender Ryan Morrison. Also with a premiership of a different kind on his resume is former Eastern Ranges midfielder Daniel Welsh (Gembrook-Cockatoo) - who jagged three goals in the Ranges demolition of the Stingrays in the TAC Cup grand final at Etihad Stadium last year. VFL state representative and steely defender Evan Panozza will lead the Scorpions again, with long-time captain Kyle Matthews (Blackburn) and former vice-captain Luke Tynan (Port Melbourne) pursuing careers elsewhere. It comes as Rohan Welsh’s charges have left in dribs and drabs, not to mention the loss of Melbourne-listed pair James Magner and Tom Couch leaving a hole in the Scorpions midfield. The Demons have drafted strongly, but are determined to use the likes of Daniel Cross, Bernie Vince and top draft picks Christian Salem and Jay Kennedy-Harris. Added to the Melbourne rookie list is Devon Meadows/Dandenong Stingrays alumnus James Harmes and newly-promoted Alex Georgiou will likely play a fair few matches down at Casey Fields too. The Scorpions will head out to Windy Hill for their season opener against Essendon VFL on Saturday from 2pm. CASEY SCORPIONS LIST CHANGES IN: Edward Morris (Gippsland Power), Nathan Paredes (Gippsland Power), Jake Thomas (Gippsland Power), Daniel Welsh (Eastern Ranges), Ryan Morrison (Eastern Ranges), Matthew Rennie (Dandenong Stingrays), Joseph West (Dandenong Stingrays). OUT: Kyle Matthews (Blackburn), Danny Nichols (St Albans), Michael Riseley (Sydney Hills), Luke Tynan (Port Melbourne), Chris Clay (Richmond), Luke Hill (Southport), Jordan Pollard (Frankston).
CRANBOURNE’S push for a fourth consecutive grand final appearance begins at Starling Road on Saturday when the Eagles take on a youthful and fast-paced ROC. And the core of what has been a brilliant side over the last four years is still intact. The Eagles will miss one of the best defenders in the league, in Matt Thompson, to a long-term injury, but players like Brandon Osborne, Nick Barker, Matt Rus and Stu Morrish are capable of covering his loss. Max Gearon and Curtis Barker are just so creative through the middle while new recruit Luke Bee-Hugo joins returning stars in Michael Boland and Brad Hermans in the blue and gold. New ROC coach Brad Jones has a massive challenge on his hands first up, but will get a great indication early on just which of his chargers can handle the heat best. Chris Potalej, Shaun Croxford, and Blair Allan will make the Kangaroos a better side ... but good enough to beat Cranbourne ... we think not, it’s the biggerbodied Eagles to strike gold. The only round one encounter involving two last start winners takes place at Westernport Oval where Tooradin roll out the welcome mat for Hampton Park. The corresponding clash last year resulted in a 150-point
pasting of the Redbacks by the Seagulls, but things will be a lot tighter this time around. “As far as I’m concerned, Hampton Park is the best team in the competition right now and we need to give them our full attention,” Tooradin coach Andrew Clarke explained. The Seagulls will unleash a band of new recruits ... Phil Burns from Garfield will harden up the midfield while his former teammate at the Stars, Ryan Louch, will be dangerous around goals. Matthew Cox, Billy Thomas and Brodie Yapp will make a difference to Hampton Park while Luke Nunan, Nathan Dawes, Adam Koe and Jimmy VanElewould will grit their teeth until the end. The Redbacks have improved ... but they’re impossible to tip ... it’s the Seagulls to get the points. In other games, Berwick and Beaconsfield will unveil their star new recruits when the long-running Battle of the Creek continues at Edwin Flack Reserve. Berwick will have Aaron Purvis and Ben Waite slip on the navy blue while the Eagles will be strengthened with the inclusion of midfielder Tyson Mitchem and Bunyip full-forward Brent Heus. Narre Warren will unfurl a remarkable sixth premiership flag in eight years before taking on Pakenham at Fox Road while Keysborough and Doveton will lock horns at Rowley Allen Reserve.
Ryan Jones was in full-flight during Cranbourne’s visit to ROC last year and will be hoping for a repeat dose when the Eagles travel to Starling Picture: DONNA OATES Road on Saturday. 103781
Victorian Women’s Football League - preview
Off-season exodus: Berwick gets the boot By JARROD POTTER AN off-season exodus has left Berwick Women’s Football Club in need of players. Work commitments, study and changing clubs has left the team short of 15 players needed to field two football teams in the Victorian Women’s Football League (VWFL) Premier Division and Reserves competition this season. “It’s the perfect storm I guess,” Berwick VWFL coach Shaun Smith said. “A lot of girls have stopped playing due to work or uni commitments and most were senior players. “You start looking at players that have gone and you can’t believe it - obviously we have to go into a bit of damage control and need to get things happening. “One after the other - can’t play because of uni or work - don’t have qualms with that, but it just seemed to happen all at once.” Victorian representatives Courtney Clarkson (work) and Ellie Blackburn (Melbourne University) lead the list of experienced senior Wickers including Romy Timmins, Steph Cutting, Stephanie Brown, Georgia Punton and Danielle McIntyre. The list of departures doesn’t include Melbourne draftee and Victorian ruck/forward Bianca Jakobsson, but with a significant knee injury she won’t be sighted much on field this season. The young players left will need to step up quickly and Smith believes the likes of Danielle Hardiman and Alice Barfoot are capable
Berwick Women’s Football Club coach Shaun Smith said the Wickers need 15 new players to keep Picture: JARROD POTTER firsts and seconds football teams in the league. 97697 of making that leap. “These are only young girls but they’ll all step up,” Smith said. “We hope so - it’s going to be hard against some of the better sides - Darebin and Diamond Creek- but we’ll just have to see what we can do.”
“Dani Hardiman is young but has some time under her belt, B.J. (Jakobsson) will be a leader but won’t play a lot.” Berwick trains twice a week during the pre-season - Monday and Wednesday while during the season it will be Wednesday and Friday. “Berwick is a really good club
and is a great team environment,” Smith said. “Anyone who can play or come down, that would be great.” For more information on playing for Berwick in the VWFL this season, contact Shaun Smith on 0407 040 525.

Honda CR-V has bold styling and a strong road presence.

CR-V in the mix By ALISTAIR KENNEDY AFTER giving its mid-sized SUV competitors a free kick by not offering either two-wheel drive or diesel power the Honda CR-V is now back in the thick of things with its fourth-generation model providing both options, albeit not together. While Australian car buyers continue to resist diesel engines in their passenger cars they do love it in their big workhorse utes and wagons but haven’t quite decided on their preference regarding compact SUVs. So it makes sense to give potential buyers the choice between petrol and diesel. Honda CR-V now comes with the choice of two petrol engines (2.0 and 2.4 litres) and one diesel (2.2 litres). The smaller of the petrol engines is only available with two-wheel drive but with either six-speed manual or five-speed automatic transmission. The lower-specced DTi-S diesel gets the same transmission choices, all other variants are auto-only. The CR-V diesel comes with a 2.2-litre turbocharged engine that generates a moderate 100 kW of power but, more importantly, 350 Nm of torque between 2000 and 2750 rpm. The entry level 2.0-litre petrol peaks at 114 kW and 190 Nm and, with nearly 100 kg less weight to carry without 4WD, supplies more than enough urge for the average urban user. The 2.4-litre petrol has more power (140 kW) than the other two engines but, with 222 Nm at 4400 rpm, it falls well short of the diesel’s torque. Surprisingly, at 1500 kg, the towing capacity of automatic versions of all three engines is the same. If you need more then the manual DTi-S is the only option. It can tow up to 2000 kg. The petrol CR-V comes in three equipment levels, VTi, VTi-S and VTi-L with the diesel only available in the higherspecced DTi-S and DTi-L. Some clever design work has managed to make the fourth generation CR-V smaller on the outside but larger on the inside than its predecessor. The front seats are slightly further apart than before, thus increasing shoulder room. There’s excellent leg and head room throughout with seats which are both supportive and comfortable. Two adults or three children can travel long distances in comfort in the rear, the latter aided by theatre-style seating
that improves their front visibility. With all seats in place there’s 556 litres of load space but drop the seat backs to an almost-flat position with a clever lever and this jumps to 1648 litres when loaded to the roof - not something that we’d recommend. All models come with a fullsize spare wheel. Built around Honda’s intelligent Multi-Information Display (i-MID) are a reversing camera, integrated hands-free Bluetooth phone and audio with MP3 and WMA capability, and USB connectivity. Satellite navigation is optional on the VTi and standard on all other models. The i-MID system is let down by small rectangular controls below the screen, including a volume control that requires a series of prods and inevitably takes the driver’s attention from the road. Fortunately there are steering wheel mounted controls as an alternative. All models in the new Honda CR-V range have a five-star ANCAP safety rating and a full suite of electronic safety features including ABS brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution; stability and traction control; front, side and fulllength curtain airbags with rollover sensors that measures the tilt of the vehicle and activates when it senses an imminent rollover; whiplash-mitigation system; and reversing camera. Models above the VTi also get front and rear foglights and rear parking sensors. In addition passive safety in the CR-V has been improved with a body structure developed by Honda to provide optimum protection for occupants in crash situations while the front of the vehicle has been designed to minimise pedestrian injury. All models come with Honda’s Econ and Eco Assist systems. Press a button and the Econ mode alters the drive-by-wire throttle’s mapping for increased torque and better economy. Eco Assist prompts the driver to optimise fuel efficiency by colour-changing arcs around the rim of the speedometer. Our most recent test vehicle was the top-of-the-range Honda CR-V DTi-L diesel with automatic transmission. While there is the usual diesel clatter from outside the CR-V, extra sound insulation material has been fitted to the under-cabin floor and that, combined with additional sound absorption material, means that it’s all but impossible to tell
that you’re travelling in a diesel once underway. We’ve always loved the CRV’s dashboard mounted gear lever with its sporty short shifter and there is also the option of shifting through steering wheel mounted paddles. Changes on the automatic are slick and timely. Rear visibility is hindered somewhat by a relatively small rear window and large C pillars but this is offset by large side mirrors. Ride quality is on the soft side but not sufficiently so as to compromise handling and even in relatively aggressive driving it turns in with reassuring precision. Fuel consumption is officially listed on a combined cycle at 6.8 litres per 100 litres and we found ourselves recording only marginally higher during our test. Honda Australia has emerged from a frustrating period that saw CR-V production halted altogether back in 2011 because of the Thailand floods, with its biggest variety of models yet and keen on pushing back up towards the top of the medium SUV sales charts. With a fresh new style and the option of petrol or diesel engines and two or four-wheel drive combined with a distinguished heritage the signs are certainly promising. Ask about a test drive of the Honda range at New World Honda, 6 Prestige Place, Narre Warren, phone 8794 0000.
