 Officers awarded and praised after dramatic chase...

On a knife-edge POLICE convinced a knife-wielding Noble Park man who was threatening himself, bystanders and officers to drop his weapons on 12 August last year. Their exceptional performance during a dangerous and volatile incident earned those involved Divisional Commendations at last week’s Southern Metro Region Division 3 honours and awards ceremony at Cardinia Cultural Centre. Acting Senior Sergeant Colin Huth was among the 13 officers who responded to reports of a man running through Nockolds Crescent, trying to attack someone with a knife. “It was a mentally affected male who had taken some form of drugs,” he said. “When we got there, we received some information that the male had barricaded himself in the house.” They locked down the surrounding area and ushered nearby residents to safety. “About five minutes later he started smashing his way out of the house, armed with various knives and implements, started throwing knives at police members,” Act Sen Sgt Huth said. “He jumped up on a car and started smashing the car, then he started running. “We had various members with firearms out.” He said officers negotiated with the man and tried to calm him down to “get some sort of resolution without anyone getting hurt”. “We were able to contain him over a period of 10 minutes, with him running at us and charging with the knives,” he said. “He managed to run down a side

street, we still contained him and continued to negotiate until eventually he dropped those knives. “We successfully apprehended him without anyone else getting hurt - without him getting hurt, without us getting hurt, so we had a good resolution.” Act Sen Sgt Huth said the incident lasted about 15 minutes. “The engagement part of the incident with him was only between eight and 10, so it was pretty quick, pretty dynamic,” he said. “Unfortunately on that particular day we asked for all of those additional support services that we would normally request, like the dog squad, and air wing, and they were either too far away or not working at that time so we were left to deal with the situation. “Fortunately we had a great bunch of guys who applied themselves extremely well under tough circumstances and came through. “They’re a great bunch. I’m very happy to see them rewarded for their work.” The team included Springvale’s Senior Constable James Frost, Constables Jon Weisshardt and Andrew Cox and First Constable Adrian Walter, and Dandenong’s Constable Jerome Ithier. Alongside them were Cranbourne Constable Nicholas Walters, Darebin CIU Senior Constable Richard Evans and Constable Matthew Toohey, Transit South 1 Constables Warren Frost and Wesley Yarnton and Operations Response Unit Constables Daniel Justice and Madeleine Robertson. See page 47 for more from the awards.

Fire rips factories, smokes up streets FIRE engulfed two factories in a Keysborough industrial area on Friday morning. CFA District 8 Operations Officer Paul Carrigg said more than 80 firefighters attended the Cambria Road site after receiving several reports of black smoke in the area about 3.40am. “The fire was very intense and when crews arrived they found two factories fully involved, one being a car wreckers factory and the other was a

plastic recycling factory,” he said. “The fire spread quickly and was impinging on a cool store premises to the north and another factory on the eastern side. “Crews from both CFA and MFB did a fantastic job containing the fire and stopped the flames from spreading to other surrounding factories.” The fire was declared under control about 7.15am. Its cause is yet to be determined. Picture: KEITH PAKENHAM - CFA

Health is all wrapped up in the kitchen A HEALTHY diet and lifestyle are so important with waistlines growing and illness resulting. So it was great to see the Dandenong Market making a contribution to the cause and joining a world record attempt along the way. Russell Bald is the resident chef at The Kitchen and showed visitors to the market how to create a ‘rainbow wrap’ last week. It was part of the Jamie Oliver Food Revolution Day which had people around the world cooking the same healthy recipe at the same time on 16 May. Beetroot, carrot, white cabbage, pear, mint, parsley, feta cheese, natural yogurt, English mustard, vinegar and olive oil were combined and put into wholemeal tortilla wraps. I haven’t yet heard whether the event was successful in breaking the

MY VOICE A MOMENT WITH

MARG STORK world record for the largest cooking lesson but it was a great way to show people an easy, healthy recipe. This cooking lesson and other healthy cooking initiatives at The Kitchen are all about providing our community with the skills it needs to live a longer, healthier life. Incredible power Koala Gymnastics Club contacted me last week after hearing some wonderful news. The not-for-profit community club in Noble Park was thrilled to find out it had won first prize in the

Gymnastics Australia’s Incredible People Power Competition. With this year’s Australian Gymnastics Championships on its way to Melbourne, the competition aims to spread the word throughout local communities. The club had to display four posters sent to it in an event pack in the most creative way possible. Koala coach Cathy Green proudly positioned the ‘blue super girl’ poster in the front window of the gymnastic club in the Noble Park Public Hall at the Paddy O’Donoghue Centre in Buckley Street for all to see. I remember the wonderfully community-minded Mr and Mrs Paddy and Olive O’Donoghue started the gym club more than 35 years ago. Although they’re no longer with

us, the club is carrying on the vision of sporting participation and a sense of belonging and achievement that the founders wanted to create for children in the local area. The club’s super girl was judged the most creative and it won a $500 first prize to spend on gymnastic equipment. Cathy will be presented with the prize at the Australian Gymnastics Championships. It has been a very busy time for the little club. It set up and ran a free come and try gymnastics area at Dandenong Primary School recently to help celebrate its special 140th birthday event. The club also recently turned pink for a week to raise money for a tremendous cause - the Breast Cancer Network.

LOOKING BACK 50 years ago 27 May 1964 Call for more tennis courts The Dandenong District Tennis Association is concerned over the decrease in the number of courts in the district. This concern was expressed by Mr Jack Thornhill, the association’s president, at the presentation dance which was attended by 300 guests. Mr Thornhill pointed out that the numbers of registered players in the 1963-’64 Summer Competition had increased to 1270, more than

The Department of Health, Housing, Local Government and Community Services has replied to an article in The Journal of 8 May in which Wallara chief executive Mr Bob Pascoe claimed the government would cease funding which would eventually see the closure of Wallara and other centres. But the claim has been denied by the department’s manager of disability programs, Mr Geoff McInnes, who described the comment as “inaccurate or misleading

and may cause distress and confusion on the part of people with disabilities and their families”. 5 years ago 25 May 2009 Ambos vote for strike action A south-east paramedic says she and her colleagues support industrial action following a breakdown in EBA negotiations between the State Government and union. Paramedics will vote on a plan to enforce minimum 10-

hour breaks between shifts in addition to 17 other different types of industrial action planned. The paramedic, who did not wish to be named, said ballot papers were mailed to paramedics last week. She said paramedics were being worked to the bone and were putting patients and people on the road at risk. - Compiled by the Dandenong and District Historical Society

Carve-up bid fails By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A BID by Keysborough land-owners to carve up their green wedge property for housing development has been rebuffed by a council draft green wedge plan. In the plan, council officers stated that low-density housing was not viable in the flood-prone Keys Road precinct area - bordered by Hutton, Springvale, Perry and Pillars roads. It found the costs of the required major drainage infrastructure would be “prohibitive” and there were health and ecological risks from disturbing acid sulfate soils. A landowners’ group, which sponsored studies to support their case, argued the necessary drainage works could be funded by the shrinkage of the minimum sixhectare lot sizes and the resulting “modest” increase in low-density housing. Councillor Peter Brown had un-

successfully moved for the area and part of the Bangholme East greenwedge precinct to be reclassified within the urban growth boundary in 2011. He said there was little difference from Kingston’s green wedge, where ‘rural living areas’ of twohectare minimum lots had been introduced. He said the significant drainage issues could be fixed successfully, citing the Waterways housing estate in Kingston. “Ultimately there must be increased subdivisions. The land’s too valuable to allow it to stay the way it is. “Some like the idea of driving through the area in their 1980s Kingswood thinking this is nice countryside, just as it was when I was a child - that’s not the view of the majority of councillors.” He said councillors had taken the “sharp edges” off an earlier ver-

sion of the draft plan. “The report has been intentionally left as open as possible to keep a doorway open for suggestions from the community and the landowners.” Councillor Matthew Kirwan said it would be “irresponsible” to allow more residential subdivisions in a flood-prone area with acid soils, with the hastening risk of more frequent, intense flooding due to climate change. “Even if you find a way for developers to pay for the drainage infrastructure now, the council will have to find a way to pay for maintaining it in the future.” He praised the council’s “wellthought out” plan as a “reasonable balance between competing uses and values”. In the draft plan, the council stated residential subdivisions near Keys Road would alter the area’s amenity and topography, could have drainage impacts on other parts of

the green wedge and lead to costly drainage maintenance bills. It stated it could also create a precedent for further subdivisions in the green wedge. The council proposed the precinct be rezoned Green Wedge Zone A, which would bring stricter controls prohibiting intensive animal husbandry, abattoirs and waste transfer stations. The precinct, one of seven demarcated under the green wedge plan, includes several historic homesteads associated with the early-settler Keys family such as Glen Alvie, Eversleigh and Holmwood farms. The report states a band of Aboriginal-scarred trees from Keysborough-Lyndhurst may be possibly the state’s largest. The council’s 3741-hectare green wedge - about 29 per cent of Greater Dandenong - covers parts of Keysborough, Bangholme and Lyndhurst.

Forgotten corner into wetland oasis ATHOL Road Primary School has transformed a rubble-filled corner into wetlands. Environmental studies teacher Brian Hunter said the Springvale South school’s senior students finished the project last week and were

now Wetland Warriors. “Their jobs will be to monitor the wetlands looking for weeds or rubbish, checking the water balance on a regular basis and organising activities down there for the wider school community,” he said.

The water will soon be teeming with fish, frogs, turtles, insects and more. “I wanted to be able to show kids that connection to the real life habitat instead of just glass tanks,” Mr Hunter said.

POLICE are seeking witnesses to two deliberately lit fires in central Dandenong last week. A passer-by called triple zero about 4.10am on 17 May after spotting a fire in a Cleeland Street front yard. CFA crews attended and extinguished the blaze. Detective Senior Constable Rick Mokos said no-one was home at the time and that the fire started when someone set a pencil pine tree alight. The flames caused moderate damage to the premises. In the second blaze, a witness saw a man and woman running from an apartment complex’s front yard in Herbert Street about 9.10pm on 18 May, then discovered a small fire. Det Sen Const Mokos said a bamboo fence had been set alight and the CFA attended and extinguished the blaze. It destroyed about seven metres of fencing. Call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 with any information about the fires.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR We had a wicked time MY WIFE and I were two of the lucky winners of tickets to attend yesterday’s performance of Wicked at 1pm and we wanted to thank you, and your newspaper, for the competition and the opportunity to attend the theatre. As we are both seniors we decided to take advantage of our free Myki travel on weekends and caught the bus and train into the city. We walked through the new shopping precinct of Melbourne Emporium and bought lunch in one of the laneway cafés and watched the passing parade of people going by.

We wandered up to the Regent Theatre and took our seats for the show and we must say that it was a wonderful experience full of colour and movement. The music, acting and dancing was just first class. At the interval we struck up a conversation with a lady sitting next to us and her son from Olinda who had also won tickets from your newspaper and who also was enjoying the experience. At 4pm we walked out after thoroughly enjoying the show. We wandered back through the city looking

again at the shops, bought a coffee, shared a cake and then it was back on the train and bus for the trip home. So, thank you ever so much for the tickets and for giving us a Sunday we will remember for a long time. Denis and Sue Holland, Springvale South.

A MAN seemed mightily relieved after being handed a good-behaviour bond for cannabis possession by a Dandenong magistrate last Monday. The magistrate asked the accused if he had anything else to say. “I’m cool,” he replied.

“DADDY!” The gleeful cry from a toddler as his dad accepted a service medal warmed everyone’s hearts at last week’s Victoria Police Southern Metropolitan Region Division 3 awards ceremony. The event also provided a giggle, with one officer’s colleagues dubbing him “Sergeant two double one N-O”. Apparently Casey Highway Patrol Sergeant Glen Ziino’s handwriting caused confusion for one member of the public and the joke stuck.

I would like the council to contribute more for its upkeep. Sue Seaton, Dandenong.

SOCIALLY SPEAKING RE: Man pulled from burning car DIDN’T anyone wonder if the fire was started under the back of the car? I don’t think I’ve come across a fire that burns down. If, as Mr Kicker reports, flames were “lapping” from under the car’s rear and within the rear

of the passenger compartment. With my understanding, although basic, fire burns up – suggesting to me that the fire started at the rear underside of the car and burnt upwards and forwards. Foul play? Jas, via web.

Expo volunteer My Le Nguyen, My Dung Nguyen and Bic Picture: ROB CAREW Gresty. 120803 Ms Nguyen said some cancer patients view Western treatments as a last resort, preferring herbal and animal-based medicines. In some cases the last resort is sought too late. SICMAA is staging an aged and disability services expo titled Vietnamese Happy Living Day - to help break down people’s fears. It gathers together more than 30 of the region’s health, aged care and disability service providers - with about 25 Vietnamese interpreters - under one roof. Ms Nguyen said elderly people in the Vietnamese community were largely ignorant of what services existed and how to access them.

1124834-CA12-14

“There’s a combination of a lack of knowledge, lack of English, lack of personal transport, financial issues - so they just don’t know about the services. “Some are isolated from their families due to family conflict. They just stay at home. Their family members can’t live with them.” Ms Nguyen hopes the expo will also attract young people who may be more willing to seek help. “At least we can try to reduce the stigma for the next generation,” she said. The expo is at Springvale Town Hall, 397-405 Springvale Road, Springvale, on Wednesday from 9.30am to 2.30pm. Details from sicmaa.bh@ bigpond.com or 0414 840 523.

purpose to have the knife,” Sergeant Gannon said. “It has to travel with me between work and the farm,” Klimek replied. “Is it against the law to travel from my place of work to my farm with a controlled weapon in my pocket?” Sergeant Gannon told the court if it was a lawful excuse, then “anyone who uses a knife in their work can travel around (with the knife) anywhere he likes”. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen, in dismissing the charge, said Klimek’s situation was a “different” because he was travelling to a rural property. Klimek was convicted and fined $800 and disqualified from driving for two years which was backdated to 19 May 2013.

AN OWNER of a Springvale firearm shop has beaten a charge of carrying a prohibited knife in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday. Anthony Daniel Klimek, 39, had been charged after surrendering the 14-centimetre Gerber pocketknife when asked by police to empty his pockets at Pakenham police station about 10.30pm on 4 August 2012. He had been asked to accompany police to the station when caught drink-driving with a blood-alcohol reading of 0.12 - en route to his Modella farm after work that night. His trip had included a meal and drinks interlude with a friend at a Sandown pub about 6pm. Klimek told the court in sworn evidence that the knife

was stored in his car’s locked glovebox during the meal because he knew it was an offence to carry the knife in a public place. After the meal, he placed the knife in his pocket for the drive to his farm as part of his “standard practice”. His lawyer argued there was a lawful excuse for carrying the knife, which was used for cutting packaging at his shop and for cutting hay bales on the farm - where he keeps cattle and sheep. Police prosecutor Andrew Gannon, during cross-examination of the accused, asserted Klimek was technically “in possession” of the knife while it was locked in his glovebox, as well as travelling between the farm and work. “Between your work and the farm, there’s no legitimate

MANY in the Vietnamese community are silently shunning mental health and disability services out of personal shame, say members of a Springvale help agency. Bic Gresty, the disability support officer at Springvale Indo-Chinese Mutual Assistance Association, said the stigma had created a “hidden” health issue for patients and their families. It causes parents to hide away disabled children and older people to stay home out of the public eye. “They have no bad stories to tell. They don’t tell you until it’s too late,” Ms Gresty said. “One client came to see me in my office. She closed the curtains and spoke lightly because she was to tell me she had a child with a disability.” Ms Gresty said most Vietnamese were Buddhist, believing mental health and disabilities stemmed from doing something “really bad” in the past. “They believe they need to pay back in this life and come back (without affliction) in the next life. “That’s why people don’t get treatment for mental health or people with cancer don’t talk about it.” “If a baby has cancer, the parents don’t want the community to know. It means they have done something wrong in their past life and been punished with a baby with cancer.”

SPRINGVALE RSL’s first president is now at rest in the subbranch’s memorial garden. William Fleming and his brothers Vic and Tom founded the RSL in 1920 after returning from the World War I battlefields. They started with 50 members and initially held meetings at the Fleming family home. The RSL, now in Osborne Avenue, Springvale, named the Fleming Lounge in their honour. On 17 May it welcomed William back. Phil Cuthbert said the cremated remains of his grandfather and grandmother Ethel had been interred at Springvale Botanical Cemetery. “They called us and said ‘time’s up, what would you like to do with them?’” he said. “We called the RSL. They said ‘we have a memorial garden in the property we own next door and would be proud to have them there’. “I thought it would be nice for the family, but it turned out to be really important for the RSL as well. “To them it was a real piece of history to have a founding member buried on their grounds.” William Fleming was a market gardener in Springvale before he went to Gallipoli. “He was wounded, and did some time in France and he was gassed,” Mr Cuthbert said. “He ended up as an acting sergeant in training in England

Dog’s life on couch

Crying out for helpers

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS LEE Martin can’t believe at the ripe age of 52 that she’s been without a home for nearly a year. The grandmother has slept on friends’ couches, in seedy boarding houses and in her car since her private rental unit burnt down in June. She owes her life to her now 18-month dog Zeus, whose barks stirred her awake as the unit and all her possessions caught fire due to faulty ceiling electrics. “I won’t live anywhere without him,” Ms Martin said. Few rental landlords will now accept her staying with her loyal companion. Being on a carer’s pension for looking after her son, she would anyhow struggle to afford the standard $300plus a week rental prices in Dandenong. A home under $200 a week – not so uncommon not so long ago - would be more in her price range. In the past year she’s stayed at two boarding houses. She left the first because she feared for her safety and the second one “which was actually OK” was condemned. At the first boarding house, rooms were regularly burgled, electricity went out several times a week and the communal bathroom had used syringes left in it. Most homeless people she has met are younger than her and substanceaffected. She often wonders why she is in this situation. “No, I can’t see the light at the end of the tunnel,” she said. “Those getting on in age, they just can’t afford a home. They want to get a job. They don’t choose to be homeless,

She said that he saved her life when he was a pup. 120817 Picture: ROB CAREW it can be sometimes circumstances that can’t be controlled.” She has recently been placed for six weeks at Hanover Welfare Service’s 30-bed crisis facility in Dandenong, with no guarantees of accommodation afterwards. Hanover Dandenong said it supports more than 240 people in crisis accommodation, about 350 people in the community, and more than 900 people with urgent housing assistance in a year. The Australian Bureau of Statistics estimates that 1634 people were homeless in Greater Dandenong on the 2011

national census night - the highest in Victoria. Hanover Welfare Services chief executive Tony Keenan said the crisis hasdsince got worse because of a lack of affordable housing due to Melbourne’s soaring population. “We can house people in crisis accommodation for a short period of time. It’s hard to place them beyond that. “Those who are homeless are put on the highest priority for public housing. They still have to wait a couple of years.” He said his service had reluctantly

TESTIMONIALS I ve been using Body Be Best for weight loss and body sculpting. I am thrilled with the results. I have lost 5 kilos and 24cm from my torso, which equates to 2 dress sizes for me, since I started. When talking to the consultants about my severe Carpal Tunnel problems, I also discovered the beneits of the micro current machine as a symptom relief for the pins and needles, and the numbness I was experiencing in my hands and I was delighted with the unexpected results. I found after only a few treatments I was waking up with no pins and needles or numbness! I found driving easier and using my hands for tasks that usually I gave up on had greater improvement. I would like to thank very much the staff and management of Body Be Best as I have found them to be of the highest professional and personal standards and I highly recommend this experience.

placed people in “dodgy” rooming houses. “Services have to choose between the unpalatable and the unbearable. “Do you put people in a dodgy rooming house or have them sleep in the car?” What are the solutions? Mr Keenan said governments needed to invest in and create models for private investment into social housing. To Ms Martin’s eyes, every derelict building looks like a wasted opportunity to get “kids off the street”. “Actually, that should be any age off the street,” she adds.

VOLUNTEERS are needed for the growing mass of hungry and homeless families seeking help at Dandenong Benevolent Society. Co-ordinator Margaret Ladner said her ageing workforce was diminishing just as the benevolent society was being swamped by 15 new families a day needing food, clothing, furniture and toys. “It’s getting worse. I’m on the verge of retiring myself,” she said. “We’re seeing people who haven’t eaten for days, who haven’t got money for prescriptions,” Ms Ladner said. “Some elderly people don’t have anywhere to stay. We’ve got a lot of young people with babies, some who can’t afford the baby formula (milk).” She is worried that welfare cuts proposed in this month’s Federal Budget could “break” people. “I think people could just give up. We can give them clothes but what if they don’t have places to go to?” Ms Ladner said the demand was being matched by Dandenong’s “very generous” donors. Indeed, the benevolent society was in need of bigger premises to store its goodies. “I have the great privilege of seeing people come in crying and we can give them a lot of help. “That’s due to the generosity of Dandenong. There are so many good people.” To offer a rental premises or volunteer at the benevolent society, call Margaret on 9793 3736.

Connecting people and communities

Schools on fresh pathways By CASEY NEILL TWO Greater Dandenong schools have been applauded for innovative programs with Victorian Educational Excellence Awards. Noble Park’s Carwatha College P-12 received the Outstanding Youth Pathways and Transitions award at the ceremony on 16 May, and the Education Support Team of the Year honour went to Dandenong West Primary School. Jodie McCarthy is part of the Carwatha pathways team and said the $20,000 prize would help to further develop the team’s programs. “Pathways programs at Carwatha are vibrant and responsive to community needs,” she said. Opportunity Knocks is a Year 9 program that includes workshops and takes students into workplaces, and brings guest speakers to the classroom. The school runs a Year 10 Mock Interview Day where students receive constructive feedback about key employability skills, and university and TAFE excursions expose students to post-secondary school opportunities. There’s a Year 10 and 11 Managed Individual Pathways program that involves one-on-one and small group mentoring around goals and career planning. “There is no doubt that we affect generational change and that the life opportunities of our students are greatly enhanced,” Carwatha principal Bronwyn Hamilton said. Dandenong West principal Bev Hansen said she was “immensely proud” of her school’s well-

being team, which includes a full-time social worker, a part-time social worker, a youth worker and a community hub leader. “That team is charged with supporting students and their families and the wider community,” she said. “They’re charged with making sure that things are in place to support families so that they can support their students.” The team offers support groups, one-on-one counselling sessions, parenting courses and activities, and a men’s shed. “We’ve had women in leadership programs for parents in the past,” Ms Hansen said. “And we have a playgroup, so parents have opportunities to connect with each other before coming to school. “There is so much happening across the school, it would be impossible without this team. “They enable the teachers to be able to concentrate on teaching.” Ms Hansen said the team would use its $15,000 prize to develop its professional learning. “They have a whole range of things that they would like to go and learn about so they can bring them back into the school,” she said. “They’ve been able to put their own stamp on it. They didn’t have to do what another team had done before them. “They came in with fresh eyes and responded to what the needs were. “I was just so excited and delighted for them, and incredibly proud as a principal.”

SUPERANNUATION LUMP SUMS IF YOU CAN’T WORK. “Many people don’t know they are covered for disability benefits under their super,” said superannuation lawyer, John Berrill.

“Although Michelle hadn’t worked for many years because of her mental illness, we were able to successfully claim the disability lump sum.”

John was a factory worker who suffered injuries in a work accident. He also suffered from depression and couldn’t work. John was on workers comp and had a lot of debts. Maurice Blackburn discovered he had work superannuation which included a $54,000 disability lump sum. His compensation lawyers hadn’t told him about it. Maurice Blackburn made a claim for John and won. He now has money to pay the bills.

Scots day for old stock yards MORE than a touch of tartan graced the Dandenong Showgrounds yesterday (Sunday). The Dandenong Agricultural and Pastoral Society held its 12th annual Scottish Heritage Day, plus a Back to Dandenong Stock Market Reunion. The day showcased Scottish animal breeds, dancing and fashion, and provided an opportunity for people connected to the former Dandenong stock yards to meet and reminisce.

NOBLE Park woman Suzanne Boyle’s life changed forever when a drunk driver ran her over outside her home in 2012. She shared her experience in the lead-up to Fatality Free Friday on 30 May which asks road users to promise to drive safely in a bid to cut the day’s road toll to zero. Ms Boyle was locking her car when she saw another vehicle careering toward her. “I thought he was going to hit the back of my car, so I ran for the other side of the road,” she said. “He did hit my car - and he hit me, in the middle of the road. “It was very traumatic for my children. They heard the accident, my son rang the ambulance.” Ms Boyle still suffers pain in her leg, hip and lower back that prevents her from performing her previous job, so she’s had to return to study to

change career path. “It’s very traumatic. I still get quite upset about it. I’m very nervous out on the road,” she said. “People need to be more aware when they’re out on the road and what condition they’re in before they get in their car and drive.” Maurice Blackburn road accident lawyer Tim Dionyssopoulos said Fatality Free Friday was an important reminder for all road users to look out for each other. “I see so much pain and suffering in people affected by road accidents but with a bit more care and awareness the road toll can be cut,” he said. “We hope Fatality Free Friday will encourage people to be more mindful of every move they make behind the wheel.” Drivers can take the Fatality Free Friday road safety pledge at www. fatalityfreefriday.com.

DANDENONG JOURNAL

Connecting people and communities

Sergeant selfless By CASEY NEILL DETECTIVE Sergeant Dean Hedge has spent the past 20 years sparring with youths, forming fast friendships and breaking down barriers. The Greater Dandenong CIU member received a Divisional Commendation for his “selfless dedication and commitment” to the Greater Dandenong Blue Light Boxing Club at the Southern Metro Region Division 3 honours and awards ceremony on 19 May. The citation said his efforts established relationships with the community and City of Greater Dandenong, “providing life-changing opportunities to disadvantaged youth”. “I love boxing and I love the kids and I loved the fact I was representing Victoria Police and that the project worked,” he said. “I’d train with them, I’d spar with them, you’d mentor them, you’d talk to them one-on-one - it broke down the barriers. “It was great to get the recognition. It wasn’t expected. I didn’t ask for it, I didn’t really know it was coming. “It could have never run without the help of the committee members and the non-police members who were down there over the years. “They take as much credit as I can.” The club closed its doors in December last year. “Unfortunately there was no real succession planner,” Det Sgt Hedge said. “It was a lot of work, a lot of time. “I’d been doing it for so long that I couldn’t cover all the nights.” He had been at the council hall on Hammond Road, Dandenong, three to four nights a week and some weekends. “It was all voluntary,” he said. “I would love to see something to take its place. It’s sad that there isn’t a program like that.”

FRIDAY

Detective Sergeant Dean Hedge with his award. 120464 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Det Sgt Hedge joined the club in 1994 at the suggestion of its founder. “We called him OM,” he said. “He, basically, wanted to start a boxing club and get police involved to link with young people.

“We ran it together with other trainers. “We had a lot of non-police members as well as police members.” Some sparring partners went on to box competitively but the focus was on fitness and youth-police interaction.

Proud to be of service By CASEY NEILL TEN Greater Dandenong police were last week recognised for 35 years’ service to Victoria Police. The Southern Metro Region Division 3 honours and awards ceremony was held at Pakenham’s Cardinia Cultural Centre on 19 May. Sergeant Martyn Cox from Dandenong RIMU received a 35 Years Service Award, a 35-year clasp for his Victoria Police Service Medal (VPSM) and a second clasp for his National Medal. The National Medal is awarded for 15 years of service and clasps are added for each additional 10 years. Also receiving 35 Years Service Awards were Inspector Bruce Kitchen, Senior Sergeant Bryce Pettett and Sergeant Larry Grimshaw from Greater Dandenong SOCIT, Leading Senior Constable Ian Bidgood and Sergeant Warren Wise from Dandenong DIU, Dandenong Sergeants Leonardus Van Tol and Stephen Ashley, and Springvale Sergeant Max Walker. VPSM 25-year clasps and National Medal first clasps went to Springvale Senior Sergeant Scott Brennan and Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol Senior Sergeant Scott Roberts and a VPSM 20year clasp went to Greater Dandenong SOCIT Leading Senior Constable Sharon Guthrie. Dandenong Sergeant David Fyffe took home a National Medal and VPSM 15-year clasp. The National Police Service Medal (NPSM) recognises ethical and diligent service and among its recipients were Greater Dandenong CIU Detective Senior Sergeant Martin O’Brien,

Springvale Senior Sergeant Alan Dew, Springvale John McDonald, Greater Dandenong Highway Patrol Sergeant Jeffrey Stockdale and Dandenong Leading Senior Constable Patricia Hasson-Vallas. Dandenong Leading Senior Constable Adam Mottershead was among six members recognised with the Humanitarian Overseas Service Medal for their work in New Zealand after the 2011 Christchurch earthquake. Dandenong Senior Constables Annemarie Logan and Daniel Gathergole, Greater Dandenong CIU Senior Constable Michael Silva and Springvale Senior Constable Matthew Davey took home VPSMs recognising their 10 years of service. Southern Metropolitan Region Commander Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius said the division was the second largest in the state, serviced 13 per cent of the state’s population and faced significant challenges. “But there’s been a huge turnaround,” he said. “We’ve seen a significant reduction in residential burglary and we’ve also started to turn around public assaults.” Mr Cornelius said the rise in family violence crime had slowed thanks to police work with the community on problem behaviour. “But we won’t rest easy until every woman and child feels safe in their own home,” he said. “Close to 46 per cent of all crime, particularly assaults, in this part of the world are family violence related. “That’s an absolute disgrace.”

This month, the council voted to endorse a Monash Council submission to the Municipal Association of Victoria which proposed reducing the maximum pokies bet from $5 to $1 and giving councils some of the gambling losses. The proposal sought changes to how the Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation assesses the “community benefit” of applications for poker machines. In January, the VCGLR approved five extra pokie machines at Noble Park RSL, stating the “likely social impact of the proposal will be positive”. The RSL sub-branch had stated that the $450,000 estimated windfall would help it run its welfare office for veterans and war widows.

Plaza’s the place for police training By CASEY NEILL MORE than 20 police officers in training descended on Dandenong Plaza last Thursday. The probationary constables from the Victoria Police Academy spoke with traders and shoppers as part of Project OPTIC (Operational Police Training in the Community). Senior Sergeant Simon Delaney said the 23 recruits were in week 19 of their training and had support from supervisors from the academy and from Springvale and Dandenong police stations. “It’s a chance for the recruits to use their communication skills and start to engage with the public,” he said. “It’s the first time in uniform for them to engage with the public. “Dandenong is such a diverse community, it’s a great stepping stone for them to realise they need to adapt their approach. “They probably realise that they can have a bit of an impact in the community. It gives them confidence.” Sen Sgt Delaney said the recruits received fantastic community support. “The feeling we get from the local traders, they’re pretty happy for us to be there, too,” he said.

AMBULANCE paramedics removed and revived an unconscious man from a burning car in Dandenong South last Tuesday. Advanced life support paramedics Amanda Stolk and Colin Kicker attended to the car and its two male occupants parked on Frankston-Dandenong Road within four minutes after being called by bystanders. Mr Kicker said the quick response from bystanders in calling for an ambulance - as well as him removing the man - had helped save the man’s life. “I don’t see it as a heroic act. My job is to save people’s lives if in danger and that is what I’ve done.”

Mr Kicker said when the paramedics arrived, flames were “lapping” from under the car’s rear and within the rear of the passenger compartment. He first opened the front passenger door, advising a conscious man to immediately evacuate the car. “From there I saw an unconscious patient in the driver’s seat. “I’ve gone around to the driver’s door, opened that door, undone his seatbelt and removed him from the vehicle by his arms,” Mr Kicker said. The paramedics revived the unconscious man, who was suffering smoke inhalation, within a few minutes by feeding him oxygen via a face mask.

FOSTER care volunteers are critically needed to house children and young people at risk of homelessness in Greater Dandenong, says the manager of a foster care service. Simone Carr, acting regional manager of Wesley Mission Victoria, said it was “heartbreaking” that it might not be able to place vulnerable young people in caring homes. “Every day we are swamped with requests. “Often children and young people find themselves sleeping in the lounge rooms of friends, acquaintances and extended family and being moved from place to place until appropriate accommodation can be found.” She said children couldn’t live with their parents for a variety of reasons, such as physical or sexual abuse, parental substance abuse and mental health issues. Ms Carr said a traumatised child might exhibit challenging behaviours but foster carers were supported 24/7 and received accredited training.

Simone Carr is concerned about the shortage of carers. 120011 Picture: DONNA OATES “You just need to have a spare room, a good heart, a willingness to make a positive difference in a child or young person’s life.” A tax-free financial reimbursement is also provided to carers to assist with costs. To help, call Wesley Mission Victoria on 9794 3032.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Work for health in the workplace By CASEY NEILL SUCCESSFULLY creating a healthier workplace starts with staff input. This was the message at the South East Business Networks (SEBN) industry breakfast at Highways, Springvale, last Wednesday, 21 May. The morning’s theme was ‘Thinking about health differently’ and focused on Healthy Together Greater Dandenong. The program is designed to encourage mental health and wellbeing, healthy eating and physical activity, and reduced smoking and alcohol consumption. City of Greater Dandenong, the State Government, schools, businesses and families are involved. Its premise is that healthier workers are more productive, less likely to seek employment elsewhere, less likely to take sick leave and involved in fewer workplace accidents. “It’s not just about bowls of fruit on the front desk,” FBG Group director and organisational psychologist Simon Greaves-Brown said. “And if people are not well, there will be obvious and significant falloffs in productivity.” Mr Greaves-Brown said wellbeing projects needed to be sustainable, widespread in their application and target the correct area. He gave the example of a stress program for workers whose supervisor was the cause of their stress. “They step straight back into the issues that were causing problems in the first place,” he said. Supervisor training would be a better investment. Mr Greaves-Brown also recalled a boss who called his workers together at 3.30pm on a Friday for a round of carpet bowls and distrib-

When they’d wrapped up a round he sent them back to their desks to work out the day. “Telling staff what would be fun doesn’t work,” he said. He urged businesses to collect data before making changes because running a workshop that half the participants thought was irrelevant could do more harm than good. Dowell national health, safety and environmental (HSE) manager Steve Boothman discussed the company’s success in creating a healthy workplace. The company reduced chronic disease high risk factors, staff turnover and absenteeism, increased productivity, improved practice standards and saved more than $1.2 million. “We made some mistakes in the beginning. We encountered some

huge barriers,” he said. “But be resilient. Communicating with your staff is absolutely key.” Mr Boothman suggested asking staff to bring 50 per cent of the resolution to the table when they raised an issue. Darrell Bramley from A and L Windows and Doors joined Mr Boothman and Mr Greaves-Brown for a panel discussion, which M and K Lawyers director Andrew Douglas chaired. Mr Bramley urged employers to recruit to fit the culture they’re trying to achieve. “It’s about the workers taking ownership and delivering the outcomes they want in their workplace,” he said. “If it comes from above, it won’t succeed.” He accepted recognition for A and L completing stage one of the

Guest speakers Simon GreavesBrown and Steve Boothman.

Healthy Together Victoria Achievement Program, alongside The Bridge Inc CEO Phillip Toovey and City of Greater Dandenong CEO John Bennie. The achievement program is a free step-by-step program that helps organisations create healthier workplaces. And from next month, SEBN will hold a seven-workshop Healthy Workplace Series to help create healthy workplaces. Workshops include local business case studies, guest presenters, networking opportunities and free tools and resources. The first will be held at the new City of Greater Dandenong offices on 24 June.

Hitched up to the career carnival of fun By CASEY NEILL A CARNIVAL complete with popcorn descended on Dandenong High School last week - but it wasn’t all fun and games. About 1500 students made their way through dozens of information stands at the Careers Fair on 22 May. “The idea is to help students understand the different options out

there,” organiser Jo Gleeson said. Businesses, tertiary institutions, community and not-for-profit organisations and essential service providers all presented career paths to students in Years 9 to 12. “Some of our teachers have already commented that their students were very involved in the day,” Ms Gleeson said. “Some specifically called out

students who have been disengaged at school and at risk of leaving, but talked to representatives at the fair, found out things that they didn’t know and now have a level of enthusiasm the teachers haven’t seen for a long time.” Year 11 student Paul, 16, would like to see more events like this one and has his eyes on a career as a lawyer.

“It was good hearing from experienced people instead of searching up on the web,” he said. “The web doesn’t answer back to your questions.” Year 11 student Anthony, 16, said he didn’t know what he wanted to do. “I asked as many questions as possible,” he said. “I wanted to broaden my horizons and get as much information as I could.”

On the job trail for interviews By CASEY NEILL BUSINESSES joined with Noble Park students last week to help improve their employment opportunities. Carwatha College P-12 welcomed 28 community partners to the college to run a Mock Interview Pathways event last Thursday, 22 May. Students in Year 10 and the Year 11 and 12 VCAL program prepared resumes and job applications before the event, and discussed interview techniques and attire. It was many students’ first interview experience. Daniel said he was more excited than nervous and learned a lot. “It was a unique experience to sit down with a real person and get interviewed,” he said. Sara was very nervous the night before. “I practised my words and thought hard before and made sure I came fully prepared,” she said. “My interviewer was Monika Emerson, she was lovely and made me feel welcome. “I gained confidence in my speaking. Overall it was a great experience.” Nevena wasn’t nervous beforehand. “However, when I started talking to the interviewer it became quite scary,” she said. “I loved the experience and got a few pointers on what to put in my resume.” Organisations involved included RACV, City of Greater Dandenong, Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust, Noble Park Rotary and LINK Employment.

Traders get together DANDENONG Retail Traders’ Association (DRTA) will hold a free networking night next week and all retailers and businesses are invited. The Tuesday 3 June event will be at the new Dandenong civic centre at 225 Lonsdale Street and will run from 6pm to 7.30pm. There’ll be free drinks and nibbles and a tour of the building. “The invitation is open to all customer-related businesses within central Dandenong,” DRTA chairwoman Glenys Cooper said. “This will be a great opportunity to gain an insight into what is currently happening in and around Dandenong, new works planned, and network with other retailers, council representatives or executive committee members of the DRTA. “It is also an excellent opportunity to tour this exciting new facility.” Ms Cooper said the event was a wonderful opportunity for prospective members to come along. “If other businesses know you and your business, then they are more likely to refer their customers to you when your services are required, so do not forget to bring along your business cards,” Ms Cooper said. Registration is essential to Joanna Palatsides on 0437 370 036, Glenys Cooper on 0417 394 722 or dandenongrta@yahoo.com. au

SPORT Impeccable timing and Sweet It Is By RUSSELL BENNETT HOW sweet it must have been for Devon Meadows’ trainer Darren McDonald to win the world’s richest staying greyhound race at Sandown on Thursday night. He and his family have been through more than their fair share of health battles recently but those tough times were blown away as ‘Sweet It Is’ turned on the afterburners to claim the $250,000 RSN Sandown Cup in front of a massive crowd, which included the likes of Eddie McGuire and Wayne Carey. Just like her trainer, Sweet It Is showed plenty of fighting spirit to claw her way back from the brink - she was 10 lengths adrift of the leader and last in the field with a lap to run in the 715-metre race. But the $1.90 favourite wouldn’t be denied, and on the one-year anniversary of the passing of McDonald’s father no less. Sweet It Is had a reputation leading into the race as a lightning-fast finisher and her legend only grew as she unleashed a devastating closing burst to win by one-

and-a-half lengths in 42.04 seconds. McDonald was blown away, much like the rest of the field in the race’s closing stages. “You can’t really describe the feeling,” he said outside the kennels straight after the stunning run. “Your heart is in your throat and it’s about ready to pop out of your mouth, and then there’s just this incredible relief straight afterwards. “There are so many hours that you put into getting these dogs ready and it doesn’t always come off like it did tonight.” But Sweet It Is, or ‘Zoe’ as she’s known at home, is no ordinary racer. Since she joined McDonald’s kennel just two months ago she has won three races and finished second four times in seven starts. Two of those wins were Group 1 races and she’s netted connections more than $260,000 in prize money. “She’s had some of the biggest runs I’ve been associated with in dogs’ racing,” said McDonald, who has also

Darren McDonald (far right) with his Sandown Cup-winning greyhound ‘Sweet It Is’, and TAB’s Jaimee Rogers and Eddie McGuire - who hosted the $120,000 ‘The Dog, The Money or The Box’ competition. claimed Melbourne Cups, Australian Cups, Golden Easter Eggs and Topguns in a decorated career so far. “She always just gets out the back and charges home.” McDonald wasn’t surprised to see his dog trailing in the race’s early stages. “That’s her pattern, that’s just how she races,” he said. “One day she’ll get a clean run

A summer to remember

With medals galore adorning him, it’s easy to see why Waterlion Sam Washington is a swimmer on the rise. 120144 Picture: JARROD POTTER

By JARROD POTTER AS summer fades into memory for most people, Haileybury Waterlion swimmer Sam Washington will remember this one fondly. Washington, 14, from Mount Eliza, has been in sensational form in the pool this season as he won multiple medals at the state and national swimming levels. At ease in the water, Washington finds his best form in the fastest and slowest disciplines of swimming respectively as a freestyle/breaststroke specialist. “Just really like the water and it

came naturally,” Washington said. “Freestyle and breaststroke are the two main strokes for me.” “Nationals I came second and school swimming I won four gold in regionals and four gold in state.” Earning silver in the 100m freestyle at the Swimming Australia National Age Championships, Washington’s time of 54.23 was a personal best and he was only edged into second in Australia by Miami’s Andrew Ryan by fourtenths-of-a-second. Backing up from his club duties with Haileybury Waterlions, Washington took the schools championship by storm

as well to win and set a new state record in the boys 12-15 100m freestyle. Washington’s freestyle was the style of choice for the School Sport Victoria swimming championships, claiming wins in the 50, 100 and 200-metre finals and Frankston High School men’s 200m freestyle relay. Washington’s success will continue over winter as he earned a place in Swimming Australia’s (SAL) National Talent ID Program. Washington wanted to thank his family, the Haileybury Waterlions’ Swimming Club and head coach Wayne Lawes for their support.

and really carve out a good time but the times don’t really matter - if they win the race that’s all that counts, and she seems to have a habit of winning the right races, which is even better!” McDonald paid tribute to a seemingly endless list of friends and family that turned out to support him on Thursday, adding that they’re what make the result so special. “I’ll continue to try and get this feeling back again next week, and

the week after that,” he said. “Whether it’s a fifth-grade race or a Group 1 race it doesn’t matter. All of your effort and work goes into it.” The Sandown Cup, Race 8 on Thursday’s card, followed another win for McDonald - with ‘Awesome Project’ taking out Race 5, the Berwick Mazda Cup night sprint. Between McDonald’s two big winners, connections netted $190,000 on the night.

The Saints won’t be watching By JARROD POTTER DANDENONG Saints’ Junior Football Club is no more. The Saints, formerly under the operations of St John’s Football Club at Box Reserve, will shift to Doveton Eagles’ home of Power Reserve from this week and don the Eagles colours. The Saints financial position forced the club to shut its doors and look for a new place for its only team in the South East Juniors under-17 competition. Dandenong Saints’ vice president and coach Trent Cornell said the bottom line was becoming too difficult for the club to manage, so shifting to Doveton Eagles was the best choice. “Due to financial struggles with our club, we weren’t able to successfully run a club this year without struggling a bit more,” Cornell said. “We were struggling a bit, being such a small club only having one team for the last few years has been challenging as well, but in the long run we did what we had to so we ensured the boys could get on the park and have a game.” “We branched out, looking for a senior club who was looking to establish a junior team and would be keen to keep the boys on board - the under 17 team - to ensure they could finish the season off. “Doveton Eagles offered to give us a hand and the league was happy to oblige by letting Doveton do so.” Formerly known as St Gerard’s Football Club, the Dandenong Saints leave behind their Dandenong District Junior Football League/South East Juniors legacy, but Cornell said the spirit of the

Saints will live on at Doveton Eagles. “Most of our boys come from Doveton - they’ve basically located between our club and Power Reserve - the only difference for myself and the boys playing is that we’re wearing different jumpers, new name and new ground - everything else is exactly the same,” Cornell said. Doveton Eagles have appointed David Morison as the Eagles’ under-17 coach for the remainder of the season. Cornell wanted to thank the Dandenong Saints’ community and the Doveton Eagles for persevering with the club and finding it a new home. “I’d really like to thank Doveton Eagles,” Cornell said. “It was disheartening to see so many years of memories at Dandenong and St Gerard’s put to rest, but having Doveton Eagles get on board as quickly and eagerly as they did to ensure the playing future was very touching.” Doveton Eagles’ president Jenny Davis said it was a great boon for the club to bring the Saints across and kickstart the Eagles’ junior program. “The Saints disbanded and the kids didn’t have anywhere to go and we were in talks with the South East Juniors and we brought them across,” Davis said. “It’s quite exciting we haven’t had juniors at our club… the Under 17s fell into our lap as they had nowhere to go and we wanted them. “With netball coming in this year - and they’re undefeated… and to get under 17s it’s a great asset to the club… it’s very exciting.”

SPORT FOOTBALL FEDERATION VICTORIA - National Premier Leagues

Thunder rise above Devils By JARROD POTTER SENDING the Red Devils back home with nothing, Dandenong Thunder maintained its top-four billing in the NPL with a 3-1 win over Ballarat. A lacklustre first half - with a couple of minor chances untaken by Dandenong - was completely juxtaposed by a fast-running, high-tempo Thunder outfit in the second. Ballarat boy at heart David King put the first goal in the Red Devils’ net leaving his brother and Ballarat captain Charlie King to celebrate his brother’s goal but rue Dandenong’s first simultaneously. Matt Millar was the maestro down the left side - running at the defenders and peeling off them to set up two Jake Nakic goals to seal the victory. “It’s a great result,” Hennessey said. “First half was pretty even - we were the better side and had more of the chances but to be fair we should’ve been 1-0 up at half time and nothing more. “Had a good chat at half time and came out with a different mindset - we were 0-0 last week after dominating and we didn’t want to make the same mistakes - we weren’t ahead this week but we lifted another level. Hennessey highlighted the efforts of Millar and Nakic at the front, with

Rama Tavsancioglu holding down the fort defensively, but the Thunder coach was thrilled with the whole team performance. “I rested Matt (Millar) as we have three games in eight days,” Hennessey said. “He came off the bench… was great with his directness and because he was running at people and drawing the defenders… it left a lot more space for the rest.” “I think everybody was great and the whole team contributed - Matt Millar obviously did well and Nakic scoring two - Rama was pretty good at the back… it was a really good team effort.” In State Knockout Cup action Dandenong Thunder will host South Melbourne on Wednesday from 7.30pm - its first of two matches against the blueand-white boys this week - while down the road Springvale White Eagles hosts Hume City at the same time. Hennessey wants to ensure his lads are prepared for Wednesday night and bring the same intensity across both clashes against South Melbourne this week. “We play them Wednesday at home and we are going to go out to win the game,” Hennessey said. “Whatever happens there dictates whatever happens on Sunday.

“It’s a big game, we obviously want to stay in and continue our cup run and everyone is interested to get involved with the national A League teams, so we’re two wins away from that part of the competition. “Because South Melbourne has been so dominant so far, if we were to get a result it will inject an enormous amount of confidence in the group - if we can be the team to beat them first, that will be a boost for the rest of the season going forward.” In other results, Springvale White Eagles rained goals over FC Bendigo in a 4-1 canter. Abel Fesseha nailed a brace as Bendigo failed to match pace at the other end. Dandenong City fell to the might of Avondale Heights with the visitors unable to stop Avondale’s early onslaught in the 1-2 loss. Avondale Heights opened the accounts early through Jason Principato and Zoran Pajic to take a two-goal lead into the main break. Dandenong City kept its head up to run in a consolation goal in the 83rd minute from Andres Jerez. Dandenong Thunder travels to clash with South Melbourne on Sunday afternoon while Dandenong City and Springvale White Eagles host Whittlesea Ranges and Sunshine George Cross respectively on Saturday.

SEABL - round 9

Resurfaced track raising concerns

Rangers ravage Brave visitors By JARROD POTTER BENDIGO was no match for the Rangers with both Dandenong teams snaring SEABL wins on Saturday night. What was billed as the top-of-the-ladder showdown didn’t disappoint as Dandenong and Bendigo kept at each other’s heels throughout the clash. In a tight game - separated 64-57 in Dandenong’s favour - the small things added up with the Rangers forcing more Bendigo turnovers and nailing 36-to-29 per cent from the field. Shining through the stoic demeanour of Dandenong triple-premiership coach Larissa Anderson was a wry grin as her star centre Lauren Scherf (11 points, 7 re-

bounds) started drilling jumpers from around the key, on top of Scherf’s usual domination under the basket. Also impressing were Amelia Todhunter (13 points, 7 rebounds), Jacinta Kennedy (14 points, 5 rebounds) and Aimie Clydesdale (10 points, 6 rebounds). The Rangers men finished the job by eviscerating the visiting Bendigo 99-69 as Darren Perry’s charges left no trace of the Braves. An 18-assist master class by the unselfish Rangers made the Braves timid as Dandenong dished off through star guard Andrew Harms (9 points, 5 assists) - who returned for his first match in over a month. Tony Lewis (31 points, 10 rebounds) and Daequon

Punching above her weight is Dandenong’s Aimie Clydesdale as she goes up for the rebound against Bendigo’s Alex Bunton. 120993 Picture: JARROD POTTER Montreal (23 points) made sure the league would be worried as Bendigo could not extinguish the premier import pair’s on-court rampage. A step-up in minutes proved handy experience for young guard Michael Wearne (5 points, 3 rebounds) while Owen Odigie (13 points, 5 rebounds) also relished his chance to shine at Dande-

nong Basketball Stadium. With a 9-1 record, Dandenong’s women top the SEABL East conference while the men improve beyond a .500 record to move into fourth with a 6-5 record. Dandenong will host Brisbane in a double-header on Saturday night in its SEABL round 10 clash.

RACING Victoria steward Rob Montgomery said no concerns were raised about the safety of the Sandown track ahead of an ill-fated jumps race meeting on Wednesday. According to a stewards report, Show Dancer was euthanised after losing its footing and crashing at a fence in the opening race. Its jockey and two other riders who fell from horses weren’t injured. The day’s final seven flats races were abandoned due to jockeys reporting horses were slipping on the track, which had been resurfaced last year at a cost of $3.2 million. Melbourne Racing Club track manager Tim Bailey reportedly said after the races that he had “a few sleepless nights” leading into the meet. He told reporters that adding

two jumps races to the card “may have bitten us on the bum”. Mr Montgomery said Mr Bailey had not expressed safety concerns to stewards before the race. “He was concerned because two extra races were on the program and would cause extra wearand-tear on the track. “The track was rated a dead four - it had wear and tear on the inside. “This is a new track we’re talking about - it’s only just been laid.” He said after race 3, an aerator was unsuccessfully used to stabilise shifting turf plugs. Mr Montgomery added that widening the track to include jump’s races had exposed the loose sections of the track. Stewards abandoned the rest of the event at 1.15pm.

Dark Knight for Bulls By JARROD POTTER

By JARROD POTTER

Brendan Gillen tries to slip a tackle from Blackburn’s Sam Macaulay. 120995 Picture: JARROD POTTER Monaghan and Bobby Kemperman deserve a pat on the back for exceptional efforts. Noble Park coach Jon Knight said the mistakes have to stop for the Bulls to compete with the best in the league as the better sides relish opposition blunders. “At that stage in the game we were two goals down then they kick two in a minute from our errors,” Knight said.

“Probably lose a bit of momentum when that happens... body language disappears and faith in your team mates gets questioned and from there a few blokes’ heads dropped which was disappointing.” Despite sitting eighth on the EFL Division 1 ladder with a 2-4 record, Knight believes the season is still alive and the Bulls are a much better side than the results suggest. “Skill errors are killing us,” Knight said.

“We still think we’re a good side and able to beat Blackburn but at certain times today when we got in front we didn’t stay in front because to Blackburn’s credit they pressured us more around the footy and when they got in front our heads’ dropped.” The week off is a blessing according to Knight and Noble Park will hopefully regain some of its ammunition when it clashes with Balwyn on 7 June for its annual Queen’s Birthday weekend fixture.

Death-defying Demons SOUTHERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE Division 2 - round 6 A HIGH-SCORING affair at Murrumbeena Park favoured the homeside with the Lions drilling four goals in the final term to clinch victory over Springvale Districts. Springvale’s accuracy kept it in the game - kicking an astonishing 16.4 (100) to the wayward Murrumbeena’s 18.12 (120). With plenty of options streaming forward, Springvale Districts advanced to a six-point lead at the first break before the home side got its act together. Only seven points split the sides at the final break as coach John McTaggert implored his Demons to put in for one last term. Clinton Brooks manfully booted four goals while Matt Thompson and Chris McTaggert snagged a double each, but the District boys could not stop the fleet-footed Lions. Springvale falls to seventh on the SFL Division 2 ladder and faces Doveton Eagles at home on Saturday.

Division 3 - round 7 BY THE skin of their teeth, the Pumas held on for a four-point victory over Endeavour Hills. Lyndale’s early kicking was subpar as it plonked 11 behinds through to lead by only six at the main change. Needing an urgent kick up the backside, whatever Pumas’ coach Rodney Bernstead said at half-time must have worked as Lyndale charged ahead in the third term. The bump-and-tackle game from these cross-town combatants was strong, but Lyndale proved stronger to hold off a last-ditched charge from Endeavour Hills to take its sixth win of the season and move to third on the ladder. Dale Tormey charged through the centre to rake in the possessions and earn a Best on Ground nod while Mark Greene (3 goals) and Ben Cox (2) also impressed. Sandown emerged with the points against Ashwood in a 17-point triumph. Clint Sheedy (5 goals) kicked past 20 goals for the

Dandenong was delivered a 127-point lesson by the Division 2 aspiring Carrum Patterson Lakes. The Lions kicked away in the second half to drill 12-goals-to-one and take its seventh-straight win.

VICTORIAN AMATEUR FOOTBALL ASSOCIATION - Club XVIII (1) MASALA showed improvement on-field despite what the ledger will record in its 6.3 (39) to 27.14 (176) loss to Mt Lilydale.

The Tigers charged through the first and second quarters to maintain some relevant offence in the match as Jordan Toikalkin and Daniel Berecic drilled two goals each. The problems manifested at the opposite end as Masala failed to keep momentum in the even numbered quarters - kicking only one goal throughout the second and fourth terms. Masala will host Old Xaverians on Saturday from 11.40am at Barry Powell Reserve.

RUNNING hot and cold Dandenong Stingrays eventually found just the right temperature with a 17.10 (112) to 13.8 (86) win over Tasmania. Everything hinged on a fantastic third quarter as Dandenong drilled seven goals to two with Bailey Dale and Taylor Joyce hitting the scoreboard with a pair apiece in quick succession. Alex Harnett generated a ton of run through the midfield and tackled like a rabid dog while Jayden Tomkins flew for a number of stellar marks and a pair of last-quarter goals to seal the 26-point win. Also impressing were captain Jack Lonie, Daylan Kempster and Sam Geurts, who all stepped up when it was their turn. It was a stark turnaround from the first half where Tasmania gained ascendancy by the half-time break. A four-goal second-quarter showed Tasmania won’t sit still or be led to the ball by their northern counterparts. The telling difference in the first half came in reasons to handball - Tasmania made it a weapon while Dandenong used it as a measure of last resort. The link up play from the visitors will surely have impressed the astounding coterie of AFL/VFL recruiters surrounding Shepley Oval on Sunday afternoon. Tasmanians Callum Mitchell and Phillip Bellchambers made ample room for themselves and hit up forwards Mitch Rainbird, Josh Fox and Nicholas Dodge to take a 16-point half-time lead. One goal against traffic from Keegan Downie was the only highlight of a middling second term for the Stingrays, erasing their promising start from the first bounce. Dandenong gave a debut to emerging AIS-AFL ruckman Gach Nyuon and the Narre Warren prospect toiled to get to the ball and assist first choice rock Elliot Hunt. “I thought it was that the kids really applied themselves and stuck to the plan,” Dandenong coach Craig Black said. “We drifted away a little bit but the players were a bit disappointed with their second quarter… we didn’t make any radical moves it was just the boys who decided to play great footy.” Their inexperienced personnel - with first choice players and potential draft picks To, Lamb, Daniel Capiron, Rourke Fischer and Jake Wilson unavailable - didn’t matter for Black as the on-field effort from the younger group impressed him. “It’s good that you can give those guys a rest - it’s been a solid eight weeks of footy going away on the AIS tour - but I don’t care who’s not in the team just the 23 that’s in the team getting the job done.” Dandenong faces the Northern Knights on Sunday at home from 12pm.

POOR skills cost Noble Park dearly against EFL heavyweight Blackburn. Injuries mounted for the Bulls, including champion midfielder/defender Stewart Kemperman, and it left Noble Park to scrounge together its best remaining 22 to take the field. It only got worse for Noble Park’s battered and bruised contingent as Luke Mann (hamstring) and Aaron Green (concussion) left the Bulls down two men throughout the match. The chipping, short game benefited Blackburn on both sides. When the Panthers did it, goals rained towards the Blackburn end via forwards Jake Hammond, Max Otten and Ben Fraser. When Noble Park did it, the goals kept coming for Blackburn. Switch kicking across the defensive goals - a sacrosanct act taught to juniors from their first match - were blatantly butchered by the Bulls, leading to two courtesy goals in the third quarter before a wayward out of bounds in the final term sealed Blackburn’s win. These goals shaped the match and halted Noble Park’s revival. Blackburn pounced in the final term to erase all chance of a Noble Park fairy-tale comeback to seize a 29-point win. Shayne Allan (6 goals) was exceptional up forward to provide a target at any cost for the injury-depleted Bulls while Dan Keely, Sam
