Port jobs threat GREATER Dandenong jobs could be on the line unless the Labor Party changes its port plan. Committee for Dandenong and City of Casey are urging local Opposition MPs to support the Port of Hastings and ditch the party’s Geelong port development. But Labor candidate for Dandenong Gabrielle Williams said the Hastings plan would flood local roads with freight trucks. The State Government announced $110 million in the 2012/13 State Budget for Port of Hastings planning. The State Opposition is instead supporting plans for a port on the western side of Port Phillip between Geelong and Melbourne, dubbed Bay West. Committee for Dandenong spokeswoman Jill Walsh said supporting the Port of Hastings would send a clear message of support for manufacturing in Dandenong. “There has been a lot of publicity around Geelong and the western suburbs, but no big job announcements for Dandenong,” she said. “Dandenong South has a large number of auto component parts manufacturers, who won’t be beneficiaries of large redundancies. What they want most, I’m sure, is jobs.” Ms Walsh said the Port of Hastings would generate confidence within the community. “The new dedicated freight rail link from Hastings to Dandenong would remove many of the large trucks from our roads, with benefits to the environment, the competitive advantage to Dandenong manufacturers both to export and import goods,” she said. She said port would bring “jobs and more jobs”. “Initially in developing the infrastructure but certainly with the attraction to new investment in terms of manufacturing, retail, etcetera,” she said.
Casey councillor Sam Aziz said the Port of Hastings could generate 5700 jobs in the region by the mid-2030s and 15,200 jobs by the 2050s. He challenged Dandenong MP John Pandazopoulos and his colleagues to “stand up and advocate for the development” and the jobs it would attract “instead of limply following a party position which significantly and detrimentally affects their own constituents”. The retiring Mr Pandazopoulos did not respond to questions from the Journal, but Ms Williams hopes to replace him at the November election and said the party’s position was clear. “A comprehensive and transparent cost benefit analysis should be undertaken to test how Bay West stands up against other possible sites, including Hastings,” she said. Ms Williams said there were many issues of concern to local residents associated with the Port of Hastings, including “the prospect of freight trains running frequently through our suburbs and thousands of additional trucks on local roads”. “Hastings requires around $10 billion in road and rail funding to get goods in and out, and without that additional investment, the Nepean Highway and Dandenong Rail corridor will be flooded with trucks and trains 24 hours a day,” she said. City of Greater Dandenong mayor Jim Memeti said the council had supported the Port of Hastings plan in the past, but didn’t yet have enough information about the Geelong plan to support one over the other. “I think it would be fantastic to have the Port of Hastings,” he said. “But we need to know what the other options are.” See page 12 for more on the Port of Hastings’ potential impact on Greater Dandenong.

CITY of Greater Dandenong is turning to cuttingedge technology to connect with more residents. Councillor Matthew Kirwan last year asked for a report on opportunities for using web and smart phone applications to engage with the people that its current practices were missing. He said this included young people who naturally turned to online resources, people working full time looking for convenience, and the mobility impaired. The report recommended the council consider allocating $30,000 in the budget for “an online collaborative tool” and promote the Snap Send Solve application. The app allows people to photograph issues that need council attention and fill in relevant details. Would you prefer to communicate with the council via apps?

JASMIN Franes won’t let fatigue from her Hodgkin lymphoma battle slow her down. The Keysborough 20-year-old will tackle more than 7300 steps in the Stadium Stomp MCG event on Sunday 6 July to support other blood cancer sufferers. Jasmin and her team the Violet Stompers, named for the Hodgkin lymphoma awareness ribbon, will traverse the top and bottom seating levels at the MCG to raise money for the Leukaemia Foundation. “Last year in March I was diagnosed. “In August I completed all my treatment and was declared in remission,” she said.
“They were constantly sending support group information, they called me just to check in. “I had a lot of support from my family and friends, but it was just good knowing they were there.” Jasmin went to the doctor with enlarged lymph nodes, and biopsies confirmed her worst fears. She completed three cycles of chemotherapy. “Sitting for four hours while they put lots of drugs to try and kill all the bad cells... “ she said. “I got very bad nausea. I was pretty much in hospital for the majority of the time of treatment.” Two weeks of less-severe radiation therapy followed. “I could start to return to doing
some normal activities,” she said. “Once that was done it was over. I started regaining my strength. “One of the main things that really affected me after treatment was fatigue. I got a gym membership and decided the only way to combat the fatigue was to get active.” Jasmin has since completed the Colour Run and Tough Mudder, with fundraising support from friends, family and workplace Keysborough McDonald’s. “Before all this I was pretty unfit. The first time I actually ran was after my treatment,” she said. “Sometimes it takes something horrible to put things in perspective. “This was another great opportunity to work on my fitness and to do
something for the Leukaemia Foundation.” The Stadium Stomp MCG half course is a complete circuit of the stadium’s Level 1 seating bowl, walking up or down every flight of stairs between the seats - about 1890 steps. The full course then takes entrants up to Level 4 to complete a second circuit of the MCG. There’ll be staggered start times from 8am to 1.15pm and anyone aged 12 years or older can enter. Friends and family can watch the action at no charge from a designated viewing area.

Budget’s fine line GREATER Dandenong Council’s draft 2014/15 budget has walked a fine line, putting downpayments on major projects without piling up debt. The bottom line for ratepayers is a 5.9 per cent rate rise average - 5.8 per cent for residents and 12.1 per cent for the municipality’s 62 farm owners - with no “visible” cuts to services and a leaner capital works program. The median residential rate hike is $45 on a $380,000 property. Ratepayers will be charged up to $18 more in waste fees if they opt for similar size garbage bins in 2014/15. However, those who downsize their bins can save up to $52.70. The council, saddled with a $66 million debt largely from its recently-opened civic centre, has baulked at any more borrowings until at least June 2018. By that time, it hopes to have built its $30 million Springvale civic
project - a library, refurbished town hall and community plaza - without adding to its debt. In its draft 2014/15 budget, the council will invest $1.1 million towards planning, design and early works for the project. Corporate services director Mick Jaensch says he hopes much of the project funds will be reaped from the sale of a 20,000-square-metre former council depot site next to the town hall. He said he was “comfortable” with the council’s forecast debt levels - “at the high end at the moment” but to be reduced to $51 million by June 2018. The budget provides for the first steps of several long-term projects, such as a $960,000 skate park as part of the Ross Reserve master plan, Noble Park. The skate park is said to include Melbourne’s second ‘snake run’ - a meandering, undulating concrete canyon. The council has also plunged $200,000 into planning for a com-
munity hub, with maternity and early childhood health services, into its Keysborough South growth area. Other highlights include: - An extra $100,000 for Christmas street decorations - including festooning the Dandenong civic centre’s nine pine trees. - $50,0000 for New Year’s Eve fireworks and celebrations at Dandenong’s civic centre square - A long-awaited pavilion and changing rooms - albeit a $400,000 temporary one - at Tatterson Park, and $1 million pavilions at Edinburgh and Greaves reserves. - $3 million (including $2 million from the state government) for three new kindergartens at Dandenong Park, Dandenong West and Springvale Rise primary schools. - Adult cricket matches will return to Lois Twohig Reserve this summer, with a $145,000 fence to be installed to protect neighbouring residents. - $1.5 million in footpath renewal - up by $500,000.
- Greater Dandenong sustainability awards to be introduced. - $430,000 partial-funding for traffic signals at Robinson StreetPrinces Highway intersection On the future to-do list - but not in this coming budget - is a redevelopment of Oasis Aquatic Centre and a community hub at the former Dandenong council offices in Clow Street. Mr Jaensch said there was no “direct budget item” providing for $1 million-plus replacement lifts in Springvale’s “No.8 car park”. The existing lifts have been malfunctioning due to overcrowding, vandalism and technical breakdowns, the council stated last week. Mr Jaensch said if the existing lifts continued to malfunction, funds would be found to replace them. “We didn’t want to have a contingency budget (for that amount),” he said. Public submissions for the draft budget close on 28 May. The council will adopt its 2014/15 budget on 23 June.
FAMILY and friends of a Dandenong High School student fatally struck by a car outside her school have staged an emotional protest at the site. A band of about 50 supporters tearfully hugged and held signs from a Princes Highway footbridge and narrow median strips last Wednesday evening, drawing honks of supports from passing motorists. Their message was to “wipe off 20”, reducing the highway’s 80km/h speed limit to 60 km/h. Shaye Kosky, 13, was killed when crossing the highway near the James Street intersection after school on 6 March 2013, a short distance from the school’s front entrance. On that occasion, she opted not to cross at the nearby traffic lights and footbridge - a risky choice taken by many students and adults each day, according to protestors. Shaye’s mother Stacey Brown, who organised the protest and an online petition on change.org, says she won’t stop campaigning until the speed limit is reduced. “It’s just a matter of VicRoads moving the 80km/h signs a few hundred metres away. “I’ll print out the petition and take it to VicRoads and Greater Dandenong Council. We’ll keep protesting and they might listen to us.”
Some protesters were disappointed by the lack of student and staff participants last Wednesday. “I don’t know why the school haven’t done anything about this,” Ms Brown said. “You would think they would want to support their kids’ safety.” Shaye’s grief-stricken father Tony Kosky has been visiting the tree memorial dedicated to his late daughter alone at night. He cries for Shaye regularly, up to 10 times a day. “She’s my angel. Our world has just gone - why did they take my baby? I don’t get to give my daughter away anymore. “The three of us (including Stacey Brown and daughter Jacinta) are not going to stop fighting.” Protester Michael Bradbury pointed out a 40km/h school zone had been installed on the highway outside Haileybury College, Beaconsfield. “It could have been the difference of Shaye still being here.” VicRoads has stated the area is eligible as a school speed zone after a revision of the road authority’s guidelines in November 2013. “(It) will be considered for future funding in the context of statewide priorities,” acting regional director Frank De Santis told the Journal last month. Dandenong High School Principal Susan Ogden told the Journal last month she was concerned

What helps is making students use the overpass. “We met with VicRoads and police. They’re looking at a number of options, such as fencing to prevent students crossing the road (outside of the traffic lights and footbridge).
“Obviously for me and the school, the number one consideration is student safety. I’d be behind anything that improves the safety of our students. “My heart still goes out to Stacey and her family. We still remember.” Ms Ogden could not be contacted last week for comment on the protest.

Girls on film... Dandenong Girls A PRECIOUS 16mm film shot in Dandenong in 1957 has been unearthed by chance among memorabilia stored after the closure of Dandenong Girls’ High School. Member of the Dandenong High School Ex-student Association Greta Jungwirth said the film shows typical student activities in the first year of the school, which was initially situated at the former site of the Eclarte tweed mill. The second half of the film revealed another surprise. It shows scenes from the Dandenong Show in November of that year held at the old showgrounds in Clow Street. Horse jumping, cattle judging, marching girls and the Grand Parade are all captured, as is the inaugural Miss Show Girl in her horse-drawn carriage. These discoveries, and many more,
MY VOICE A MOMENT WITH
MARG STORK are the result of dedicated volunteer work undertaken by members of the ex-student association’s history unit. Since the merging of Doveton and Cleeland secondary colleges with Dandenong High School, Greta said the group had become the custodian of a treasure-trove of historic photographs and records.Separate DVDs of these two films have been professionally edited and can be purchased. Anyone interested can phone the school or go to the association’s website and leave contact details. In recent weeks, former students of
and one of the few in the public sector. Greta said it was an active and vibrant organisation with strong, co-operative ties to the school.
Doveton Technical School (which later became Doveton Secondary College) have accessed their class photographs from 1963 to the 1980s. This has resulted in a rush of enthusiasm and nostalgia and a planned reunion of staff and students on 12 October at the Dandenong Workers Club. Contact Chris Holland on 5996 1264 or cmholland1@hotmail.com for more details. It is hoped that this reunion will lead to the formation of a Doveton Technical School Chapter, or sub-group, of Dandenong High School Ex-students Association. Similar hopes are held for the formation of Dandenong Girls’ School and Cleeland Secondary College chapters. Formed in the 1920s, the Dandenong High School Ex-students Association is one of the oldest in Victoria
HISTORY LESSON In other school news, Dandenong Primary School in Foster Street is about to celebrate its 140th anniversary. When I was working in the Dandenong Journal’s former home in Scott Street, my routine on a Monday involved a news search “on foot” to the city’s churches, schools, RSL, fire brigade and other important venues. One of my regular ports of call was the Dandenong Primary School where I took notes to write up the school’s news. I was always met with courtesy and co-operation and could understand the popularity of not only the teaching staff but the ancillary staff with the general public.
Some of the teaching staff at Dandenong Girls’ High in 1957. On Thursday 1 May, the school will host a dinner for old students and former staff. On Saturday 3 May a community day will be held at the school from 9am until 4pm. If any Journal readers have a copy of the coverage of the schools’ 100th anniversary celebrations it would be appreciated if they could contact Carol at the school on 9792 2743.

20 years ago 2 May 1994 TAFE switch sparks ire THE ramifications of a name change are still being felt. There could be a hidden agenda in the former Dandenong College of
TAFE changing it’s name to Casey, a Dandenong councillor has claimed. Councillor Christine Ware said she thought the name change could have something to do with the Local Government Review Board’s examination of council boundaries. “Perhaps we might be seeing with the change of council boundaries, a neighbouring council of ours called the City of Casey?” she told last Tuesday’s council meeting. Dandenong council had opposed the change when asked for it’s views by the State Training Board, the responsible authority. Councillor Frank Holohan said he
believed it was a case of the “Worst possible manners” that the council had not been told officially of the change. 5 years ago 27 April 2009 Stars come out to laud maestro of the Drum SOME of the entertainment industry’s biggest names will unite next month to honour Drum Theatre identity Paul Streefkerk who died in March. Last week, Promac Australia announced it would host a celebration concert in honour of the man who built the Drum Theatre to be “the equal of Melbourne Concert Hall in Dandenong”.
Promac Australia owner Chris McKenna said Streefkerk was a unique character. “He loved performers and he was very good at his job.” McKenna said the concert was a way for the performers to “give back something of what he gave them.” Already confirmed on the program are Julia Anthony, Denise Drysdale, David Hobson, Simon Gallaher, Wendy Stapleton and Philip Gould. Julie Anthony said the show would be “Bittersweet”. - Compiled by the Dandenong and District Historical Society

State school marks birthday By CASEY NEILL DANDENONG’S first state school opened its doors on 4 May 1874. It’s since moved and grown, and will mark its 140th birthday next month. A dinner at Dandenong Club on Thursday 1 May - exactly 140 years since an official dinner to open the school - and a family day in the school grounds on Saturday 3 May will mark the milestone. The event will run from 9am to 4pm and feature activities from community groups, free rides, food stalls and history displays. Principal Christine Toth said the original school was on the corner of Robinson and Foster streets. She said the Education Act 1872 created the concept of public schools. Before that, people attended church-run education or didn’t go to school. “The people of Dandenong asked for a public school,” she said.
“It was very early in education in the state.” The school moved to its current site on Foster Street in 1881 with about 200 pupils. The Gothic-inspired building had three rooms - one for boys, one for girls and a gallery - and modern fittings included a porch, hat rack and ventilation. The education department bought the land for the school from Ken Masters’ family and a street behind the school is named after them. Mr Masters started his time at the school about 1942. He recalled air raid trenches under the pines that lined the school yard, and hand-milking cows out the back each day. “You had fresh milk for your lunch,” he said. He also reminisced about his time in teacher Jane Austin’s classroom. “My brother was a short stubby bloke and had big dimples,” Mr Masters said. “Miss Austin used to bring him to the front of the class ev-
ery morning and give him a kiss on his dimples. “I was five years after John. She always related to me as Johnny’s little brother.” Carmen Powell started at the school about two years after Mr Masters, and lived just minutes’ walk away in New Street. “But I was always late,” she said. “I often climbed the gate because it was closed at 9am. I could usually hear the bell ringing as I ran across the playground.” Ms Powell also vividly recalled her grade two teacher, Miss Austin. “Her hair was grey and coarse and always tied in a bun at the back,” she said. “The rumour being that it was a wig. I was always watching on a windy day for signs that it might slip or blow off.” There’ll be many more memories on display at the school on Saturday 3 May. Phone 9792 2743 for more information.
Charges follow syringe car-jacking A FRANKSTON man is in custody over a car-jacking at syringe-point at Dandenong Plaza last month. Police charged the 25-year-old with armed robbery, theft of a motor vehicle, conduct endangering persons, robbery and pursuit-related offences. He faced a filing hearing at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court
last Tuesday and was remanded to reappear in July. Greater Dandenong Embona Detective Senior Constable Jodie Stoll alleged the car stolen from the McCrae Street car park about 1.30pm on 29 March was three weeks later involved in a police pursuit in Melton. “The driver was identified during the pursuit,” Sen Const Stoll said.
“The car was recovered the following day.” She alleged the charged man stole another car in Melton and drove it back to Frankston, where police arrested him on 18 April. She said he was believed to have committed similar offences in Frankston. –Casey Neill

AUSSIE soldier Scott May choked back tears as he spoke at the Dandenong Anzac Day service. The hundreds gathered at the Pillars of Freedom hung on every word of the story they believed was about a 17-year-old soldier who signed up for World War I. Mr May, who served in Afghanistan, said the lad was looking for a great adventure, following his big brother into the armed forces. But the boy learns that war is not a game, and returns to Australia “changed a little”. He returns to a “relatively normal life” but is called back to the battle field. “This time he’s not so eager. He has seen what war is like,” Mr May said. An explosion changes his life forever. “The soldier doesn’t remember much. A searing pain,” he said. “The young soldier’s war is over. “This story is about my younger brother Christopher.” Mr May said his brother suffered permanent injuries when an improvised explosive device struck a vehicle he was travelling in. He said his story was to show that today’s soldiers were not dissimilar to the Diggers of years past. “Today is a day for us to show support for those of us fortunate enough to come home and pay tribute to those who didn’t,” he said. RSL President John Wells said he hoped the story helped the crowd realise “that these things are real”. “We must not continue to look back on Anzac Day without remembering at the same time to look forward.” See page 51 for more Anzac coverage.

Parents have drug answers By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS PARENTS concerned about their children’s susceptibility to the drug ‘ice’ should focus on providing a warm, nurturing home life, says a leading drugprevention spokesman. Geoff Munro, national policy manager of the Australian Drug Foundation, says the abuse of crystal methamphetamine - otherwise known as ‘ice’ - can “creep up” on users and their loved ones. “(The user) sees other people using it and it appears they are in control. You think you’re safe and in control, and the drug ends up controlling them.” The user starts taking more of the quick-acting drug, perhaps twice or three times a week. Once it becomes a daily urge, the user is spending all their income on the drug. “It can happen without other people realising it but one of the signs is they start to sell household items to pay for it. “They exhaust their bank accounts, spend all their pay and then start to commit crimes. “At the point they step into crime, they don’t feel in control. They need a supply of the drug and resort to criminal activity.” At that point, some parents report their children to police, hoping their child may get diverted to drug treatment programs. They can also seek help

Australian Drug Foundation national policy manager Geoff Munro. at community health centres, drug and alcohol centres, youth workers and doctors. “There are no guarantees. You can offer help but we can’t live the person’s life for them.” It’s a “major warning sign” if children about 13-14 start trying alcohol and cannabis, which puts them in “more danger” of more serious drug use, Mr Munro says. It can be difficult for parents to tell the warning signs in the first place. Adolescents, wanting to assert their independence, typically withdraw
from their parents. “Teachers and schools are generally a good way to keep in touch with what’s happening to their child. “If you find out they’re drinking and using substances, talk to them about why they’re doing it. Establish if it’s curiosity or something more. “If it becomes ongoing it’s important parents let their children know they don’t want their kids using drugs and drinking alcohol. It’s important to set firm boundaries about their behaviour.” Research shows children who are given such boundaries are less likely to do drugs. They’re also less likely to drink and more likely to drink much less than those given permission to drink. “We know parents are extremely influential on their children. It’s important they know their parents are looking out for them. “If (the drinking or drug-taking) is starting now, every week parents would want to take action. “If they are not making headway, talk to your local doctor or speak to their teacher to see if anything is happening in school. “If something is happening, it’s important to keep the lines of communication with your child open.”

Dolly books kids hooked DOLLY Parton is making her mark on Noble Park. On a recent trip to Australia, the international country music star announced her Imagination Library was spreading to the suburb following a successful pilot in Doveton and Eumemmerring last year. The program encourages parents to read to their children to improve literacy in disadvantaged communities. So every month until they turn five, 101 children in Noble Park will receive a free book in their letterbox thanks to the Rotary Club of Noble Park. Spokesman John Williams said the club paid $6 for each book from Penguin Books, or $72 per child a year. “We believe in it. We think it’s a fantastic project,” he said. “People have come back saying their children are looking forward to their next book.” Maternal and child health nurses at Paddy O’Donoghue
Centre in Noble Park selected the participants, and Mission Australia and City of Greater Dandenong provided financial support. “We’re getting a bit of interest in the program and we’d like to expand it at a later time - when we can afford to sponsor all those kids,” Mr Williams said. “We’d like to include all the kids in the City of Greater Dandenong, but it’s logistically not possible unless we can get some other organisations supporting it.” Doveton College principal Bretton New said the program had made a significant impact in Doveton and Eumemmerring. “Kids and their families, through no fault of their own, can be in economic trouble and books aren’t a priority,” he said. Mr New said some toddlers would now read close to 60 books by the time they start school. “It gives kids the ability to use their imagination and
develop language,” he said. South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Gordon Rich-Phillips said the Australian Early Development Index (AEDI) identified the Victorian communities involved in the Imagination Library as places where children could be three times more likely to struggle with reading. “Reading is a child’s passport to knowledge and opportunity - the sooner we can build a child’s literacy skills, the sooner they can broaden their understanding of the world,” he said. Children and Early Childhood Development Minister Wendy Lovell said reading every day when children were developing fastest made a very real difference to how they succeeded at school. “It has the effect of placing these children up to 12 months ahead of children who are not read to every day,” she said.

IT WAS something of a Jack and the Beanstalk moment for Noble Park resident Josie Luppino. A novice gardener, she was unaware of her ‘green-thumbed’ abilities when she decided to start a vegetable garden a year ago. Little did she know she would soon be sprouting vine vegetable that she calls “long zucchinis”. One specimen came close to out-growing her own “five-foottwo” height. Ms Luppino says it’s best to pick them when they’re smaller, when their flesh is less tough. As a food on their own, the fruit is quite bland – not as sweet as the stouter, more common zucchini – and similar in taste to a marrow or pumpkin, Ms Luppino says. Once peeled of its tough skin, the ‘zucchinis’ can be fried or stuffed with meat, rice, tomato, onion, garlic and a dash of chilli. “You can put whatever you like with it,” Ms Luppino said. “You can stuff it, boil it, fry it the same way as the other zucchini. “It’s beautiful.”

IMMUNISATION rates across Greater Dandenong have increased by as much as 23 per cent in the past two years. But the council’s regulatory services manager Peter Shelton says there’s room for improvement and plans to make it happen. “These programs protect children against many different diseases such as whooping cough, chicken pox and other viruses that can cause cancers,” he said. “Immunisation of these children also helps to reduce the spread of these diseases and, in some cases, can lead to almost total eradication of particular diseases within a community.” Mr Shelton said maintaining immunisation rates was more challenging for Greater Dandenong than many other municipalities because of the culturally and linguistically diverse community.
He said the council needed to help newly-arrived families understand the immunisation process, educate them about its importance, and communicate effectively with parents to gain consent for immunisation and an understanding of immunisations already received. “These difficulties were reflected in immunisation rates, which in the period 2010 to 2012 were consistently lower than the regional average,” he said. “The council’s immunisation team recognised this problem in 2011 and commenced some analysis to try and further clarify the reasons.” Mr Shelton said the team introduced initiatives aimed at improving rates, including forming stronger working relationships with local schools where most of the immunisation program was delivered. “These efforts met with success, with immunisation rates across the various programs increasing between
four and 23 per cent by the end of 2013,” he said. The team also successfully sought Department of Health funding to conduct more formal and detailed analysis, “with a particular focus on secondary age students, where the biggest problems seemed to exist”. The project was completed in January. “Findings of the analysis will be used to inform further work on improving immunisation rates over the coming years,” Mr Shelton said. “One of the key messages from the analysis is that there is a need to improve community understanding of the importance of secondary age children participating in immunisation programs.” During Immunisation Week, 21 to 27 April, everyone is encouraged to check their vaccinations.

Roads in a jam By CASEY NEILL A DANDENONG South road closure is reigniting calls for an overpass amid fears it will overload surrounding streets. VicRoads is closing Bayliss Road at the Western Port Highway after deeming the intersection’s operation “not satisfactory due to the increasing volume of heavy vehicles now using this intersection”. “These vehicles create potential safety risks as they cross or enter the highway,” a City of Greater Dandenong report on the issue said. Industrial packaging waste recycler Waste Converters is on Bayliss Road. Managing director Ward Petherbridge said it had been closed for several weeks, except for traffic entering and exiting his site. “Our transport costs have increased since the closure,” he said. “Our vehicles and custom-
ers are now having to access the site exclusively via Western Port Highway. “Accessing Western Port Highway in peak hour traffic from Dandenong involves using Abbotts Road and the South Gippsland Highway, which are already overburdened.” Mr Petherbridge said the main problem with many Dandenong South roads was that they were not coping with the growing traffic volumes. “Abbotts Road in particular needs urgent upgrading and I would strongly encourage the construction of an overpass linking Remington Drive directly with Pound Road and the freeway,” he said. “Traffic lights would also be highly recommended for traffic entering Western Port Highway from the South Gippsland Highway as this intersection is becoming diabolical. “This would really assist with the overall traffic flow through the Dandenong South precinct.”
Councillor John Kelly said he was “amazed that they’re going to be putting more pressure onto Abbotts Road”. “As a council we need to lobby for the bridge over Remington Drive,” he said. “It’s so imperative. “Putting all this traffic onto Abbotts Road is just ridiculous. It’s putting a lot of pressure onto our local road network.” Closing Bayliss Road was part of the Dandenong South Industrial Area Extension Structure Plan, which has strong support from Mr Petherbridge. “This area will become a vibrant precinct in conjunction with the development of the Port of Hastings,” he said. “I am a strong supporter of the both the Inland Port and the Port of Hastings, both of which will shape the Dandenong South Industrial Precinct in the coming years. “These projects will bring economic growth and jobs to Dandenong South.”
Customer service stays put SPRINGVALE’S council customer service centre is staying put. Councillor Peter Brown last month suggested moving the service out of the civic precinct on Springvale Road to save cash, and requested a report. At their 14 April meeting, councillors heard that retaining a customer service presence in the former council chambers was the best outcome for Springvale residents and Great-
er Dandenong ratepayers. The report recommended proceeding with renovation plans, and contained information about the costs and benefits of various options. These included converting a space the council owns in the 303 Springvale Road arcade, leasing shopfronts and using Springvale Library. Converting the council chambers had the lowest price tag and the benefits of customer familiarity, good car parking
and bus access, and continuity of service, according to the report. Community feedback regarding the Springvale Civic Precinct Masterplan indicated residents wanted to see a customer service presence stay on the site. The council’s 2013/14 budget allowed $503,200 to provide a customer service presence in Springvale.

Crossing’s cash century By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS A SUM of $159 million for a levelcrossing removal and underground railway station in Springvale sounds like a lot of money. But then consider its worth as a 100-year project, says Springvale Asian Business Association (SABA) spokesman Stan Chang. “It’s a lot of money for you and me but over 100 years it is nothing.” He, like many gathered at the new station’s opening last Tuesday, is excited by the project’s transformative effect. No longer will closed boom gates stall traffic for 50 minutes in every two-hours of weekday peak-times in which about 8000 vehicles and 80 trains travel through the crossing. During a rainy morning peak time last Tuesday, there were few signs of
traffic squalls - despite some altered turning directions into side streets. According to Mr Chang, the shabby northern side of the railway tracks will be replaced by new swathes of residences and retail. Previously unviable projects, such as the redevelopment of Warwick Avenue car park, would become economically viable, he said. “This new premium station will give Springvale a new image,” Mr Chang said. “It will provide a new opportunity for the expansion of the shopping precinct. It’s almost like a chain reaction. People will jump on the bandwagon because they won’t want to miss out.” SABA will lobby Greater Dandenong council to capitalise on the drawcard with improved lighting to further encourage a street café scene.
Transport Minister Terry Mulder with John and Sonnia Rodriguez. Picture: CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS Springvale residents John and Sonnia Rodriguez, who knew two pedestrians killed by trains at the former level crossing, said the project was an overdue safety improvement. Last month, a woman in her seventies was struck and killed by a train as she crossed the tracks.
“(The killed pedestrians) probably had got confused about when to cross when the lights were down,” Mr Rodriguez said. “We’ve been living around here for 40 years. It’s about time” Mr Rodriguez said. “It’s going to be beautiful for everyone.” Greater Dandenong Mayor Jim Memeti quipped that he hoped the levelcrossing removal program was “stopping all stations to Dandenong”. He was referring to the council’s lobbying for the removal of three Noble Park level-crossings at Heatherton, Corrigan and Chandler roads. “It’s the future,” Cr Memeti said. “It means saving lives. It’s something that both sides of politics have to commit to.” At last week’s opening, Premier Denis Napthine was flanked by Transport Minister Terry Mulder and a host
of Coalition state MPs in the station’s spacious ground-level entrance. The State Government stated it had carried out “planning and pre-construction works” for removing level crossings at Chandler, Corrigan and Heatherton roads, Noble Park. Mr Mulder said there was $2.5 billion of investment in the Dandenong rail corridor to come, including four other grade separations and 33 per cent more train service capacity. The finishing touches are still to be applied to the Springvale project. To come are bus, taxi and parking sites, with short-term drop-off points. Road resurfacing, landscaping of the station forecourt, the installation of lifts and demolition of the former railway station building is expected over coming months.
IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT… THE two McDonalds in Keysborough got together on Easter Sunday to raise funds for sick kids and their families. McDonald Real Estate owner Le Hoa Wysham organised the day in conjunction with staff at McDonald’s restaurant. Dozens of kids and their parents from Keysborough and surrounds enjoyed a day of fun activities including face painting, a colouring competition, a magician, loads of giveaways and a raffle for a huge hamper of Easter goodies. Mrs Wysham said there was much enthusastic coloring-in and the “standard was very high, which made selecting a winner a tough job”. “Many of our staff gave their personal time to help set up and run the day and we are enormously proud of their generous spirit. “We have also formed a strong community culture with the team from McDonald’s restaurant through days like this and McHappy Day each year.” Money raised was donated to Ronald McDonald House. PLENTY of eyes will be on Mayor Jim Memeti’s waistline over the coming weeks. Launching a new health initiative, the Cubby Pear at Dandenong Market, he pledged to lose five kilograms in 10 weeks to improve his health. JAYCO chairman Gerry Ryan has made a struggling family’s caravan dream come true. Michelle Newland was 19 when she suffered an asthma attack and died in her mother’s arms, depriving her brain of oxygen for 10 minutes. Medics brought her back to life but by then she had lost the ability to walk, eat and communicate and was placed in a nursing home. Her family mortgaged their home and cancelled their caravanning holiday to prepare to have Michelle living at home. More than 10 years after the tragedy, the Dandenong company last week gave them a caravan. A TRAIN’S test run proved worthwhile ahead of the public opening of Springvale’s new railway station last week. During the test run, a train mirror clipped a platform’s emergency handrail. “It happened once,” a Metro Trains spokeswoman said. “The handrail was immediately rectified and it hasn’t happened since.” THE Dandenong Journal will feature in an upcoming documentary on Springvale sheepowner Vu Ho who has fought with Greater Dandenong Council to keep his pet sheep in his backyard. The short feature-film by independent doco-maker Lisa Priest will screen at Mr Ho’s home in coming months.
Open to Vic residents 18+. Starts 08/04/2014. Closes 04/05/2014. To enter, complete an entry form available from Dandenong Market traders or Dandenong Market Office (located on Cleeland Street Dandenong) and submit in the entry box in Market Square. There is no minimum spend required to enter. You can enter the promotion more than once. All valid entries received during the Entry Period will be entered into the draw. The draw will be conducted at Dandenong Market Office, Cleeland Street, Dandenong, Vic 3175 at 09:30am (AEST) on 06/05/2014. The first 4 valid entries randomly drawn will win 1 of 4 $1,000 EFTPOS cards. Total prize pool valued at $4,000.00 (inc GST). The Promoter is Dandenong Market Pty Ltd; corner Clow & Cleeland Streets, Dandenong VIC 3175. See Dandenong Market Office for full Terms and Conditions.

HOMES in Noble Park will be soon able to connect to the National Broadband Network. The NBN had been under review after the change of federal government last year, meaning a zone of 2500 homes and businesses in Noble Park were temporarily taken off the rollout map. Last week they were reinstated, with a 12-month further wait for local construction of the fibre broadband network. To see if your street is on the map, visit nbnco.com.au.

The quality large new six-bay shed has two bays fully enclosed and a concrete floor.

ANZAC DAY 2014 - Lest we forget
Keeping the Anzac tradition KEYSBOROUGH retirement home residents were a day early when they marked 99 years since Australian troops landed at Gallipoli. Dandenong RSL held a remembrance service at Lifeview Villa Lombardia on 24 April for residents who can no longer attend the traditional Dawn Services on Anzac Day. The event included a wreath-laying, The Ode, the Last Post, readings, an afternoon tea and two-up. “Many of our residents are exservicemen and women who would have attended the traditional Dawn Services in years gone by,” Lifeview CEO Madeline Gall said. “It’s important we help carry on this tradition in our homes, so residents can continue to lead active and fulfilling lives.” Residents also enjoyed a traditional gunfire breakfast on Anzac Day.

Early parade for veterans By CASEY NEILL GREATER Dandenong’s Anzac Day commemorations started on Easter Sunday. The Springvale RSL sub-branch held a march down Springvale Road from Union Grove to the cenotaph outside Springvale Town Hall on 20 April. Former sub-branch president and World War II veteran Geoffrey Charters read the first lesson, taken from St John’s Gospel Ch: 15:9-13. Students from eight schools interrupted their holidays to participate, and Hotham MP Clare O’Neil, Lyndhurst MP Martin Pakula, Mayor Jim Memeti and councillors Loi Truong and Sean O’Reilly also attended. Springvale RSL president Michael Custance said the event was smaller than usual due to Easter and school holidays. “Next year, our thing’s going to be bigger than Ben Hur, because it’s the 100th anniversary,” he said. “We’re already planning.” Guest speaker, Vietnam Veteran and former Noble Park RSL subbranch president Gordon Murray told the Noble Park service about local residents who’d served in conflicts over the years. He said they’d played a key role in the conflict and the suburb should be very proud. “This RSL is one of the best RSLs in Australia,” he said. “When you mention you’re from Noble Park they say ’that’s the one that does the work for veterans’. “The same comradeship we have here is what those World War I diggers had.”

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST Way forward for manufacturing MANUFACTURERS need to work with educators and each other to grow into the future. This was one finding of the manufacturing workforce study report, launched at the Manufacturing Skills Australia symposium on 8 April. The Australian Workforce and Productivity Agency consulted the industry, unions and the tertiary education sector to examine the impact on jobs and skills in the years to 2025 of Australian manufacturing’s shift from heavy industrial to technologically advanced production. It found that despite recent downturns and closures in some sub-sectors, manufacturing in Australia could have a positive future. The report recommended industry-wide collaboration on skill development, continued Australian Government support for programs that help businesses to up-skill, reviewing and revising management training and pursuing strategies to help vulnerable workers transition to new roles. It also recommended better promotion of the range of manufacturing jobs available. Australian Workforce and Productivity Agency chairman Philip Bullock said the industry was Australia’s fourth largest employer, made a disproportionately large contribution to export revenue and played a critical role in innovation. “To remain competitive, Australian manufacturing needs to transition to a more diverse, highend base, where there will be a stronger focus on research and innovation and more niche manufacturing of complex, high value-added goods,” he said. Mr Bullock said raising skill levels in this workforce would be critical. “Particularly science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) skills and improved management skills, to provide the technical and leadership capacity to drive the sector’s transition,” he said. “Deeper engagement will also be needed between manufacturers and universities and research bodies to ensure the supply of the higher skills required and to drive innovation through research.” The Australian Workforce and Productivity Agency is an independent statutory authority which advises the Australian Government on Australia’s skills and workforce development needs.

Future linked to zinc By CASEY NEILL A DANDENONG company is offering an Australian-first service in a bid to double in size. A and A Electroplating owner Mark McHale this year invested $360,000 in new equipment to introduce zinc nickel to the company’s zinc plating services. “We corrosion-resist steel parts for various industries,” he said. “We need to diversify for us to get stronger, try and create a new market. “If it doesn’t work, I’ll be ringing you up for a job. If it does work, we’ll be laughing.” Mr McHale’s is a manufacturing success story, and not the only one in Greater Dandenong according to Committee for Dandenong spokesman Todd Hartley. “It’s not all doom and gloom in the region’s manufacturing sector,” he said. “I speak to many customers and suppliers on a daily basis and I get the feeling things are really ramping up for a big year. “We still are the manufacturing hub of the country. “Although we are losing the automotive industry over the next
three years, we still have a presence of truck, bus, caravan and rail industry original equipment manufacturers in the south east region who are all currently increasing their build rates.” Mr Hartley said Chisholm Institute’s enrolments and student contact hours had increased dramatically over the past 12 months. “We have an institute in our own backyard that is supplying the training and skilling of our staff to keep the region world-class competitive,” he said. “What’s not to get excited about?” Mr McHale is certainly excited about the next six to 12 months. “We’re doing a new thing no-one in Australia does, called zinc nickel,” he said. “They do barrels, for screws, but no-one does a steel line. “We’re in the process of putting that in now. “Currently we do zinc, which gives you a couple of hundred hours of salt spray or corrosion resistance. “Galvanising is the highest you can get, it’s a really rough finish. Zinc nickel will give you the same smooth finish (as zinc) but a greater salt-spray resistance.
“That could be our bread and butter and zinc could become 20 per cent.” Mr McHale bought A and A in 2010. “The guy I bought the business off was my one employee,” he said. “I now have eight full-time staff and two part-timers. “We’ve grown 30 per cent, every year, on top of each other.” He said diversification and customer service were the keys. A and A uses about 60 per cent less water following recent innovations. “The electroplating industry is a very old industry that in the years no-one’s ever said ‘where are we going to be in five years’ time?’” he said. “They’re worried about here and now and making their money and getting out. “They never put money back into the process, never try to improve the process to make it more efficient, try to make it more economical ... “ Mr McHale said the company’s quality and service was talking. “We’ve got great relationships with all our customers,” he said. “They know they can ring us on a
Friday or a weekend and say ‘we’re in the s**t, can you get us out of the shit?’ and we’ll say ‘no worries’. “I can’t beat your Chinese price, but give us a shot – I’ll give you quality and service.” He said businesses might be purchasing a product for 10 cents in Australia and find it available for two cents in China. “They don’t factor in that now you’ve got to buy 400 million of these,” he said. “You pay up front 30 days, not 60 days after. You have to pay for warehousing and transport. “That two cents is probably eight cents, so you’re probably saving two cents. “And you never know, with a call to the supplier you might be able to haggle two cents out of it.” Mr McHale compared the business dealings to buying a hamburger from a milk bar. “You can’t go to China and say ‘I want one hamburger with the lot, one hamburger with cheese, one hamburger with beetroot’,” he said. “You’ve got to order millions of the bastards. “Here, we’re a phone call away. That’s how we can beat China.”
Next generation production A SPRINGVALE engineering company will use a $45,000 grant to develop a part for recreational electric vehicles that is currently imported. Elektromotive Australia received a State Government Technology Development Voucher to work with Aqua Trip to develop a power control component. Technology Minister and South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Gordon Rich-Phillips said that until now, Elektromotive Australia had been modifying off-the-shelf power control components sourced from independent overseas suppliers that have limited capabilities, communication, reliability and unstable pricing. “Developing this type of technology in-house and in close collaboration with an Australian supplier will remove the difficulties in communication and reliability,” he said. “The project will give them an increased competitive advantage in existing categories and open up new, local and overseas markets with nextgeneration products, as well as create more jobs in-house, and outside of the company.” Mr Rich-Phillips said the Technology Voucher Program supported projects that involved developing new technology or exploring the application of existing technologies in innovative or novel ways. “We have also established a searchable directory of technology capabilities and suppliers, listing companies and organisations that can provide services to voucher applicants,” he said. “The directory lists over 200 Technology Voucher Program suppliers and enables users to easily connect applicant needs with supplier capabilities.” Visit www.business.vic.gov.au/tvp for more information.

GUIDED tours have unlocked the hidden gems of central Dandenong’s Afghan Bazaar, which has a fresh new look. The cultural precinct’s heart is Thomas Street and today (Monday) Multicultural Affairs Minister Matthew Guy, Greater Dandenong mayor Jim Memeti and the Afghan Ambassador to Australia officially opened the upgraded space. Changes included more effective street lighting, the removal of overhead powerlines, expanded footpaths, landscaping and a feature artwork called The Lamp. The Journal recently joined one of the City of Greater Dandenong’s Afghan Bazaar Cultural Tours, which are held regularly. It started at Mashreq Carpets in Thomas Street, which was filled with 400 carpets from Afghanistan and around the world, and other homewares. The next stop was Maiwand Bakery in Scott Street, which makes tandoori bread for a steal - just 75 cents - and cooks up to 800 per day. Tour-goers picked up exotic

Dazzler debut
By JARROD POTTER FROM under a green vest on Monday afternoon, Mitch Hallahan knew that he was finally ready to make his mark on the AFL. Hallahan, 21, from Sorrento, finally received his call up to the AFL team and was given the substitute’s vest for his inaugural match - a relatively long wait for a debutant. But the occasion was supreme - Easter Monday against Geelong at the MCG - and Hallahan thought he had the best seat in the house for the match. The former Dandenong Stingrays’ captain was thrilled to soak in the rumbling cauldron of the MCG, settle a few frayed nerves and watch from the sidelines as his team mates duked it out with Geelong for three quarters. “You probably have the best seat in the house,” Hallahan said. “I was sitting down there at ground level and can see what’s happening. “For me there was a little bit of nerves pregame and leading into the game, but to sit there for three quarters and to take it all in, soak in the atmosphere and bide your time til you take the vest off - the nerves had settled and I was ready to play footy.” His time came in the fourth quarter - subbed on for ruckman Ben McEvoy - and started in the midfield against the likes of Joel Selwood and Steve Johnson through the centre. He drilled a goal in the loss as Geelong took a 15.16 (106) to 12.15 (87) win over the Hawks, but Hallahan won’t forget his debut or the feeling he got when his team mates cheered him onto the ground for his first moments as an AFL footballer. “The first moment where you know you’re going to come out on to the ground and that you’re about to be amongst it,” Hallahan said.
“Once I took the vest off, the boys were a little bit excited for me and we were going into the last quarter and it was a tight game, but the enthusiasm towards me coming onto the ground was really good and something I won’t forget. “It’s always good to get recognised for the hard work you put in and earn a debut, but to play against Geelong - who is our modern day rival and on a big stage - it was pretty special and I guess you could say it was worth the hard work I have put in over the last four years.” Hallahan starred in the VFL last season - playing in Box Hill’s premiership winning team and also claiming the prestigious Liston Trophy in a three-way tie with Steve Clifton and Jordan Schroeder. He puts his personal success down to the team atmosphere at Hawthorn and Box Hill and the tireless work of people behind the scenes to get the team ready. “It’s been a really interesting 12 months and a lot of work has gone on behind the scenes,” Hallahan said. “You see the results on game day, but there are a lot of people behind the scenes that put in time and effort to your development and work in closely with you so you get those results.” Not one to forget his grassroots connections or where he came from, Hallahan wanted to thank all the football clubs along his journey for their part in his success. “Plenty of people and I’ll thank those people personally - but there’s a lot along the way; junior club at Sorrento, Dandenong Stingrays in the TAC Cup and everyone involved at the Hawthorn and Box Hill Football Clubs,” Hallahan said. Hallahan retained his spot in the Hawthorn side and was selected to face Richmond on Sunday afternoon.

Keeping the gold in Victoria By JARROD POTTER
Star recruit Eric Miraflores hopes to repay Keysborough one he denied them back in 2012. 118205 Picture: JARROD POTTER
By JARROD POTTER IF YOU can beat them... join them! It’s a strange reversal on the old adage but it proves true for Keysborough Cougars’ basketball team recruit Eric Miraflores. Cougars’ fans will remember Miraflores starring on court for Craigieburn in the 2012 Big V Division 2 Men’s grand final series to overcome Keysborough in the bestof-three series. Miraflores, who emigrated from the Philippines in 2006, had offers from all around the Big V competition this season but he chose Keysborough for the great environment. “Last summer I was trying out with different clubs and got a few offers, but with Nathan, we kept in touch after the grand final, and he kept asking me what I was doing this year and I said I didn’t know, but then I decided after Nathan said
to come down for a try. “I thought I’d give it a go for one training session and after that I fell in love with Keysborough. “I wanted to go to a team that needs me and I feel happy to play with and I think Keysborough is the right place for me and they treat me like family and I feel at home here.” Keysborough coach Nathan Vogt said off the court the Cougars always liked Miraflores and when he became available, it was an easy choice to sign him. Vogt did have one important caveat for Miraflores coming across to the Cougars - he needs to repay Keysborough for what he did to them in 2012. “I will put this on the record - he owes me a championship,” Vogt said. Keysborough face Western Port next week from 7.30pm at the Steelerdome.
JUNIOR Dandenong Rangers Jack Perry and Mitchell Barry have earned selection in a prestigious representative basketball team. The 15-year-old basketball rising stars, Perry from Berwick and Barry from Narre Warren, will represent Under-16 Victoria Metro, hopefully defending its title at the Australian Junior Championships. The duo squared off against other Australians in the East Coast Challenge to earn their place on the Victoria Metro team. Knowing they’ve made one of the elite junior teams in Australia - on arguably one of the best development pathways in the country - is a great honour for the duo and they hope to help Victoria Metro raise the championship once again. “It feels pretty good to know that you’re one of the top 10 players in your state,” Perry said. It feels alright.” “Really good knowing that you have worked really hard and made it to the moment you got picked,” Barry said. Perry will hope to start for Vic Metro with the ball in his hand as a specialist point guard while Barry likes to sit off and make his shots as a shooting guard and is especially fond of drilling long-range three pointers. Above all, they want to help guide Vic Metro back to the championship match and keep the cup in Victoria. “Vic Metro is always pretty good, so hopefully we do well and get gold,” Perry said. They both play for the Dandenong Rangers under-16 in the Victoria

Big money in Black
SEABL - round 5
By JASON ADAMS SANDOWN Park’s Sandown Cup Carnival kicks off this Thursday night with the running of three Black type races the Lizrene, Bert Bryant, and the Bill Collins - the first of eight Black type races showcasing the best greyhounds in Australia. With a feature event being run over each race distance, the night serves as the perfect entre to an exciting month’s racing in which over $800,000 in prize money will be on offer. Last Thursday night, a number of high profile greyhounds fine-tuned their campaign with impressive performances. The aptly named Heaps Of Ability announced himself as a greyhound to follow in the upcoming stayers series winning last Thursday night in 41.68. The son of Sandown Park’s 515m record holder Bekim Bale lead all the way to record the fastest time of the year over the 715m journey. The Carl Schlensog trained stayer is closely related to Australian record prize money earner Miata, and will be aiming to claim one of the few feature finals to elude the West Australian star. Over the middle distance, Campaspe Will won his 11th race from just 18 career starts, the only dog in Norm Walls’ kennel saluting in impressive fashion, stopping the clock at 34.00.
Campaspe Will stormed home to win for the McGrath Foundation as part of the ‘Go The Pink Dog’ campaign. 119318 Picture: SUPPLIED Campaspe Will’s victory from box eight added another $500 to the Go The Pink Dog Campaign, the month long campaign raising funds for the McGrath foundation. Meanwhile over the sprint distance, Buckle Up Mason took his career prize money to over $100,000 with his fourth consecutive city win.
The May carnival includes the $145,000 Group 1 Macro Meats Sapphire Crown, Australia’s richest race for female greyhounds, as well as the $145,000 Group 2 Berwick Mazda Harrison Dawson for male greyhounds. The carnival concludes with the world’s richest stayers’ race, the $250,000 RSN Sandown Cup to be run on Thursday 22 May.

Thunder left feeling Green By JARROD POTTER THUNDER found itself struck by a Bentleigh Greens’ barrage on ANZAC Day - downed 1-3 at Kingston Heath on Friday night. The Thunder could not match pace with the Greens and former Thunder keeper Stuart Webster knew exactly how to stop any Dandenong foray into the Greens’ goal. Matt Millar broke the early deadlock in the 47th minute - coming on fractionally before then as a substitute for Jake Nakic - Millar darted through the box to beat Webster for the only Dandenong goal of the evening. After that Dandenong was at the behest of a Bentleigh rampage for the last 40 minutes - David Stirton pushed the Greens ahead with a brace in the 49th and 59th minute before Luc Jeggo iced the victory with a low ball slotted into the bottom of the net to take the two-goal victory. Dandenong Thunder now has a 2012 VPL grand final rematch against Oakleigh Cannons on Friday night from 8.30pm at Jack Edwards Reserve.

After a Fesseha penalty at the 47 minute mark, the White Eagles smashed
in two more with Millar and Maghiar sealing the deal and earning Springvale its first points in the competition. Dandenong City will face FC Bulleen Lions on Monday night at the Venuto Club from 8.30pm.

Some Rangers get over their Blues By JARROD POTTER ANZAC Day action this year was on court as Dandenong clashed with Frankston. The Rangers stormed ahead in the first match of the night against Frankston’s women - taking a 23-8 lead at the first change. Dandenong’s women jumped out of the blocks in the second term as well before Frankston’s Maddie Garrick (24 points, 11 rebounds) - a Bendigo Spirit WNBL player started smashing down three after three. It levelled the ledger and left the match at half-time poised at 37-36 favouring Dandenong. Larissa Anderson’s charges started to find their feet again in the second half as Lauren Scherf (13 points, 10 rebounds) started amassing stats at both ends of the court. The match devolved after halftime as shooting became more difficult and the defensive pressure from both sides proved im-
mense. Dandenong shot away in the final term to add some leeway to the final margin and boost the Rangers to third in the East Women’s conference. It was a night for the high flying Rangers as Alison Downie (13 points, 13 rebounds) and Faith Probst (12 points, 7 rebounds) took the skies to keep the ball away from Frankston. Guard pair Aimie Clydesdale (9 points) and Clare Papavs (8 points, 5 assists) supplemented Dandenong’s tall timber and relished taking a few shots of their own. The men however could not replicate the women’s success downed 90-94 in overtime. Daequon Montreal (44 points, 7 rebounds) starred for the Rangers with Tony Lewis (12 points, 8 rebounds) and Owen Odigie (11 points) also impressing. The Rangers face Canberra on Saturday night.

Stingrays bog down By JARROD POTTER OVERCOME after a spirited wetweather fight back, the Dandenong Stingrays could not hold off the Western Jets’ last salvo. Soggy conditions greeted all comers to Shepley Oval as the Western Jets soared above the field to take the early lead. The Jets had the upper hand throughout the match - with runners Liam Duggan and Jackson Volpato steaming through the middle to hit up their forward team mates at will. It left the Stingrays trailing at all changes but some life reared its head late in the third term as Keegan Downie (3 goals) and Jayden Tompkins (2) set up a revival. The final term swayed Dandenong’s way heavily as debutant Lachie Williams found the goals early in the quarter before Aaron Wilson’s hard clunking mark in the wet set up another pack flier from Tompkins to take a slender lead for the first time in the clash. Western fought back with goals to Mitch Norton and Jayden Laverde to take the lead and hold on doggedly to seize a 7.12 (54) to 7.9 (51) win. Narre Warren’s Mitchell Cox made a strong showing in his Stingrays’ debut - setting up goals and spoiling Western opportunities defensively. Also making a name for themselves on the wet arena were Mitch
White, Bailey Dale and Tooradin’s ruck rising-star Elliott Hunt. “Obviously a bit disappointed we probably didn’t play as well as what we were hoping,” Dandenong coach Craig Black said. “We didn’t adapt to the conditions well - overused the ball when we could have kicked it - they were a bit cleaner around the stoppages and they used the ball really well. “It’s one of those things we’ll practice at training and hopefully next week we’ll come out a bit better.” Cox, Bailey Rice, Jake Lovett and 23rd man Lachlan Williams all showed they are hungry for the Stingrays’ jumper and stood tall in their TAC Cup debuts. “Four kids playing their first game and they were all in our better players - Jake Lovett, Lachie Williams showed a bit of life up forward and he (Lachie) was the 23rd so he could only play half a game and we also had Bailey Rice and Coxy so that’s the exciting part of our program and for them to stand up like that on debut is great.” Defensively impressive Jacob Weitering and Jake Lovett (The Peninsula School) will miss next week on school duty as will cocaptain Daniel Capiron (Caulfield Grammar). The Stingrays face NSW/ACT Rams on Saturday at home from 12pm.

Eastern Football League - round 3
Southern Football League - round 3
Miracles happen! By DAVID NAGEL KEYSBOROUGH’S spirit and resolve is about to be sternly tested after the Burra went down to Pakenham by a flattering 21 points at Rowley Allen Reserve on Saturday. Coach Chris Bryan will need to steel his troops like never before as the Burra this week make the horror-trip to Narre Warren, looking for its 40th consecutive scalp - before hosting an in-form Berwick in round five. Likely losses in those two encounters will make it four on end for the Burra, who made a bright start to the season with a win over Doveton in round one. That victory seems an eternity ago now, after the Burra were run off their legs by the fleet-footed Lions on Saturday. The Burra were quite simply outgunned in all departments. Pakenham’s midfield of Russ Lehman, Dom Paynter, new-recruit Sean Winsall and returning skipper Dean Blake were too nimble for their Keysborough counterparts, despite the efforts of Ryan Goodes and Richard Minney who battled hard. That midfield deficiency translated to trouble for the home side’s forwards, Davor Rajic and Tyson King kept to two and one goal respectively against a disciplined Lions’ defence. Glen Hawthorn and Reece Spadaccini stood firm under some relentless pressure from the Lions in the third quarter, but a lack of support saw the margin blow out to 41 points at the final break, courtesy of 3.5 to 0.3 term. A late rally by the hosts, who kicked 4.3 to 1.1 in the final stanza, failed to camouflage a clear gap between the two sides. Big-men, Bryce Sutton and Bryan, joined Goodes and Hawthorn as the Burra’s best while Tim Werner was the home sides’ only multiple goal-kicker with two. Daniel Fry returned to form for the Lions, kicking four goals, while Lehman was also dangerous in front of the big sticks with two.
A sloppy affair A better Bulls still beaten By JARROD POTTER
its fifth-place spot on the ladder.
DIVISION 3 The Cobras got on the board with a 37-point shellacking of South Yarra in tough conditions at Edinburgh Reserve. The rain made for heavy going on field, but it did not stop the Cobras as Clint Sheedy (5 goals) returned to his scintillating best up forward, while Jake Chapman, Brad Hemphill and John Frenken fed him plenty of opportunities from the midfield in the 11.14 (80) to 6.7 (43) win. Meanwhile Dandenong fell away after half time against Ashwood as waywardness cost the Redlegs in the 6.13 (49) to 9.9 (63) loss. Daniel Atkin (3 goals) and Jarrod Lapthorne (2) were the prime scorers for the Redlegs while Dale Jose, David Barrie and Kevin Atkin deserve just mention for their stellar performances. At Roy Dore Reserve, Lyndale was pumped by Carrum Patterson Lakes 6.12 (48) to 18.12 (120).
EARLY ascendancy did not translate into victory for Noble Park, with the marching Norwood Norsemen able to seize a 26-point win. The Bulls kicked away to an early lead with man mountain Brett Dore (3 goals) and and former Bulls’ ruckman - now Dolphins’ tapper Vergim Faik (3) hitting the scoreboard. Noble Park had the services of Morrish Medalist Jackson Sketcher to add some more firepower to the Bulls’ engine room. But the bolstered line-up wasn’t enough to stop the march of Norwood after quarter-time, as Leigh WIliams (5 goals) made amends for last season’s final’s defeat by the Bulls. Norwood kicked six goals in the second quarter to work to within a point of the Bulls before steaming past them after half-time. Jon Knight’s men could not stop the Nordic charge as Norwood’s John Holmes, David Johnson and former North Melbourne/Melbourne midfielder Jordan Gysberts fought past Noble Park with ease.
Flying the flag for the Bulls were Dore, Rob Kemperman and Glen Manson while midfielders Tim Robertson, Tim Kelly and Sam Monaghan toiled in the centre. It leaves Noble Park sitting eighth on the EFL Division 1 ladder, hoping to boost their place on Saturday when the Bulls travel to Knox.

SPRINGVALE Districts failed to fire against the Bombers, with Skye snaring a six-point win in their SFL Division 2 clash. A deluge of heavenly detritus soaked Springvale Reserve and left the match as a scrappy affair with the Districts kicking the only goal of the first quarter. From there the match stalled in the slop as the half-time margin only favoured Skye 1.9 (15) to 1.5 (11) over Springvale. The Demons and Bombers found the goals in the second half with Skye opened its account with four majors to two in the third term before holding off the dogged Districts, which kicked three goals to one in a nail-biting last quarter. Rob Johnston (3 goals) led the Springvale charge and almost created the come-back victory while Lance Baptist, Clinton Brooks, Justin Doust and Aidan Jolly were best afield. Springvale heads to Highett on Saturday with hopes of boosting
