Taser ends armed siege

A million memories By BRIDGET COOK

A MAN has been charged following a siege in Narre Warren South on the weekend during which he allegedly made threats to kill police. Officers were called to a house in Sugar Gum Court about 3am on Saturday morning following an alleged domestic violence situation. Police cordoned off the area after reports that an armed, intoxicated man was inside. A woman, who was also inside the house, came out when police arrived and the man followed carrying a baton. Police said the man then allegedly made threats to kill the police officers before retreating back inside. The Critical Incident Response Team was called and tried to negotiate with the 47-year-old man. The siege went on for more than an hour during which time the man allegedly threatened to release two Rottweiler dogs on police and said he had a firearm. The man came out of the house with the baton again and police were able to Taser and arrest him. The man has been charged and remanded in custody. Ron and Nita Chapman celebrated their diamond wedding Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS anniversary last week. 120272

been a highlight and we’ve enjoyed life as it’s gone along with our family.” Mrs Chapman said she felt the same. “Family is everything,” she said. “We’ve had our highs and lows throughout the years, but so does everybody. “With so many of us, we’ve just enjoyed life as it has gone along.” Both Mr and Mrs Chapman have had their fair share of health troubles over the years and said being able to celebrate 60 years together

POLICE charged a man this week following an armed robbery in Cranbourne in April during which two teens allegedly had a meat cleaver pulled on them. A 24-year-old man from Bayswater was charged and remanded to appear in Melbourne Magistrates’ Court at a later date. The charges come after an armed robbery on two Cranbourne boys, aged 16 and 17-years-old, in the rotunda in Greg Clydesdale Square on Friday 18 April. It was alleged the man pulled out a meat cleaver and stole the teens’ mobile phone, some cash and a Southern Star mountain bike from one of the victims.

Ron and Nita Chapman on their wedding day on 22 May 1954. “We all strive to be like them,” she said. “It’s amazing that we are able to celebrate the occasion with them. “The last couple of years they’ve both had their health issues so we value every day we have with them.”

was very special. “It’s just marvellous to make this occasion and get that far,” Mrs Chapman said. “Not many people are lucky enough to celebrate it. “When I went in for an operation last week, as they always say, they told me there’s always a risk that I might not make it through it. “I just said that I’ve got to make it to the 22 May!” Their daughter Debra said her parents had been an inspiration to them all.

POLICE are trying to locate the owners of two bikes which were found dumped in Narre Warren last week. The two bikes were left on the front lawn of a house in Peveril Court on Thursday 22 May and do not match the description of any bikes reported stolen. One of the bikes is a blue Paranoia Huffy BMX and the other is a black Trixter Southern Star BMX. Anyone with information about the bikes owners can contact Constable David Harrison at Narre Warren Police Station on 9705 3111.

speed limit reduction MOTORISTS have been urged to take note of a speed limit change along Thompsons Road in Cranbourne North. Following the recent Victorian Speed Limit Review, the a 3.3 kilometre section of the road, between Berwick Cranbourne Road and Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road has been reduced from a 90km/h speed zone to 80km/h. South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Inga Peulich said that the decision to decrease the speed limit was only made following a thorough review by VicRoads to ensure that the speed limit was appropriate for safety and traffic flow.

Police are trying to track down the owners of these two bikes.

“I urge everybody travelling on Thompsons Road to be aware of the new speed limit and adjust their speed accordingly,” she said. “One of the key outcomes of the Victorian Speed Limit Review was to reduce the number of changes to speed limits along short sections of road to make it easier for motorists to comply with. “Speeding continues to be a big problem and a cause of a lot of crashes. “This change, along with others being made across the state, will help reduce the confusion that drivers were telling us they were experiencing.”

SINCE meeting at the Bentleigh train station in 1948, Ron and Nita Chapman’s relationship has been full steam ahead. And the Cranbourne North couple proved that they have been on the right track as they celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary on Thursday 22 May. The lovebirds met on Saturday 10 January 1948 when Mr Chapman accompanied his friend to the station as he was planning to meet up with Nita’s cousin. It is a decision he is very happy he made after he managed to secure himself a date with Nita to the movies that night. “It all just developed from there and we continued to see each other,” Mr Chapman said. The couple married on 22 May 1954 at the Pioneers Presbyterian Church, Cheltenham. They moved into their first home together where they remained for the next 47 years before moving to Cranbourne North 13 years ago. They had eight children together - Graeme, Lynette, Cheryl, Leanne, Debra, Dean, Andrea and Sharyn and now also have 11 grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Both Ron and Nita said there were a number of key elements to their happy marriage but family was the major one. “Compatibility and working together is a big factor in a successful marriage,” Mr Chapman said. “But family has brought so much joy to our life. “Put it this way, you don’t have to have a million dollars in the bank to be a millionaire. “Our whole life together has

Abduction attempt fails By BRIDGET COOK A CRANBOURNE father says his son has been stripped of his freedom to ride to school, after a man tried to lure him into his car with lollies last week. An 11-year-old Cranbourne boy was approached by a suspicious man in a car along Cherryhills Drive about 3.45pm on Thursday 15 May. Police said the man offered the boy a lolly, which he refused, and then called out ‘come here’. The boy, who was riding his scooter home from school, rode off and ran into his home just 40 metres down the road. The boy’s father Peter, who did not want his last name used, said they were so relieved that their son knew what to do in that situation. “He said he knew it was a bad man straight away,” he said. “He quickly rode home and the man screeched off when he saw him come inside. “You think you’re in a good, safe

neighbourhood and then something like this happens. “My son was very shaken up after it, and so are we.” Peter said they would no longer let their son ride to school. “We’ve just started letting him ride his bike or scooter to school,” he said. “We gave him that freedom and independence. “He’s a really active and fit kid and loved being able to ride to school, so it’s a shame that freedom has been taken away from him because of this.” Peter urged other parents and children to keep an eye out for any suspicious behaviour and report anything to police. Casey CIU First Constable Leanne Marshall said police were seeking any witnesses to this incident or anyone who might be able to assist in identifying this man. “My message to parents is that it is obviously an issue of concern, however be vigilant and if they see anyone

The man was driving a white 1988 or 1989 Ford XF ute with a canopy. matching this description of the male depicted to contact Crime Stoppers,” she said. “If something similar occurs, my advice to children is to seek assistance from someone nearby and to call triple zero straight away.” The man was described as about

45 years old, possibly Middle Eastern, with a long brown/grey beard, brown eyes, a gold earring in his left ear and wearing a black shirt. The man was driving a white 1988 or 1989 Ford XF ute with a canopy. He was last seen driving along Brookland Greens Boulevard, towards

Toilet move set in motion for Selandra Rise estate By BRIDGET COOK THE City of Casey will relocate a public toilet in Selandra Rise estate after residents continued to kick up a stink over its location. Casey councillors went against the officer’s recommendation at last week’s council meeting and resolved to move the problem toilet at a cost of $61,000. Home owners along Selandra Boulevard were angered to see a public toilet being built in Heritage Park, opposite their home, in March after more than eight months of fighting to have the location changed. More than 20 people signed a petition

in April calling for the council to relocate the toilet to a more central location in the park and away from homes - something the council agreed to investigate. A report came back to the meeting last week and council officers recommended that the toilet remain in its current location and that additional screen planting be undertaken around it to the value of $2000. Instead Mayor Geoff Ablett lead a push to have the toilet relocated. “We had some savings, we can afford to move it but what I want to do is consult with people,” he said. “This has constant stress, anxiety and

angst for people who have paid for an expensive block opposite the toilet.” Resident Ann Sergides said she was thrilled to hear the toilet would be moved. “I’m impressed with the mayor taking into account how we felt, how much this upset us and that we were misled over the location of the toilet,” she said. “We were ready to pack up and move because of this whole situation, so now we feel a lot better that our concerns have been addressed.” Ms Sergides said residents were not aware of the toilet location when they purchased the land.

Police have released an image of a man they wish to speak to in relation to an attempted abduction in Cranbourne. Cranbourne-Frankston Road. Anyone with information is urged to contact First Const Marshall on 9705 3121 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Attack leaves teen in hospital A YOUNG man was left with a broken nose and possible broken jaw after being bashed by a group of men in Cranbourne North on the weekend. The 18-year-old man from Endeavour Hills got off the train at Merinda Park Railway Station at 8.10pm on Saturday night. Police said he saw a group of about eight males fighting among themselves in the car park. One of the men questioned him about what he was looking at

and the victim replied “nothing”. The same man then approached the victim and punched him once. The victim tried to run off, but the group of men caught up with him and assaulted him, police said. The man was taken to the Dandenong Hospital, where he was treated for a broken nose and possible broken jaw. Anyone with information about the attack is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

According to the mayor Geoff Ablett (Taxing Times, News, 22 May), Casey needs a rates increase of 6.3 per cent to provide the infrastructure for a population growth rate of 120 new residents each week. The mayor believes this will help “future proof the city” from any compromise on our essential services. I would like to inform the mayor of Casey that population growth inevitably places pressure on any city’s infrastructure, especially when that city, such as Casey, has no population policy. Population growth means that taxes will always need to be raised to maintain our basic community services. The quality of life for residents, as well as our essential service levels, is compromised by population growth. We now know that population growth is one of the key drivers behind green house emissions and pollution. Pollution reduces the quality of the air we breathe and spreads allergens and health problems throughout the community. Growth means more traffic congestion and waste management problems. Moreover, where will all the new Casey residents get employment mayor Ablett? The Coalition in Victoria has budgeted for an unemployment rate of 6.25 per cent in Victoria. Roy Morgan research, however, shows that the rate of underemployment is really more than twice this figure and that consumer confidence has plummeted since the Abbott/ Hockey Federal Budget was announced? Isn’t it time that Casey developed a population policy based on what growth rates will be sustainable into the future? Or will our councillors leave their heads

Even the balloons were smiling at the Balla Balla Community Centre’s Biggest Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Morning Tea last week. 120812 in the sand on the most important issue impacting on our quality of life? John Glazebrook, Endeavour Hills.

Anger rises We the residents of Kiandra Mews, Hampton Park, are very angry that the City of Casey rates have gone up by 6.3 per cent. These completely ridiculous rates are just sky-rocketing. In the past 10 years the rates have gone up by more than 300 per cent. No one can earn a salary or pension to that level of percentage in a lifetime. Why must the ratepayers in established areas pay increased rates for newly developed areas. Instead developers and builders must pay to councils a stipulated amount to cover council rates for 10-15 years thereby there will be no burden on the ratepayers for those years. Secondly, all council assets - stadiums, parks, ovals, libraries, buildings - have been

paid for by the millions and millions of dollars of rate payers’ money. These assets can be privatised and the money can be used to pay for any investment in community services, thereby lifting the burden of us ratepayers. We call upon all ratepayers in the City of Casey to fight this ongoing increase in rates every year with no end in sight by refusing to pay your rates until a solution is found. Last but not least, why do we need 79 councils in this small state of Victoria. Amalgamate councils to just 10-15 councils. Councils are bleeding residents. In the City of Casey we have three offices, one CEO, six directors, 26 managers and that’s not counting the mayor, councillors, staff and field personnel. Also the cars, registration and fuel being paid for by the ratepayer. If we take into account all personnel in all councils in Victoria, they outnumber the staff and personnel of the Federal and State governments. Dunstan Girton, Hampton Park.

Socially Speaking In relation to Taxing Times (News, 22 May): MAYOR Geoff Ablett says that he understood the financial pressures facing residents. He has no idea of the pressures we ratepayers face. Does he not understand that since he has been our representative in council that my rates have increased over 21 per cent? Does he not know that this extra 6 per cent increase will hurt us. We are not fools Mr Mayor. Megan Jeemans, Cranbourne, via web.

In relation to Clyde’s No-go Zone (News, 22 May): CASEY councillors are always talking about a ’20 minute neighbourhood’. Now they are investigating stopping the creation of jobs in this designated industrial area which will allow Casey residents to access work close to their homes. Bert, via web. In relation to You’re Terminated (News, 15 May): WHEN people are losing their jobs and unable to pay their

bills, some councillors think spending over $100 million dollars on building another council building is a good policy. They really are out of touch with the families of Casey who are feeling pressure from the increased cost of living and pressure on jobs. If any state candidate asks for money from either the Labor or the Liberals, voters should not vote for them. Arthur Billing, via web.

MP’s campaign not welcomed By BRIDGET COOK THE City of Casey has attacked Cranbourne’s MP over a postcard he sent to the electorate criticising the council for what he said was misspending. Cranbourne MP Jude Perera sent a postcard to each registered voter in his electorate urging them to sign it and send to the Premier, claiming that ‘Casey council should spend our money on us’. The postcard criticises local government for wasting money and, in particular, Casey for hiring an Arnold Schwarzenegger impersonator to promote the Casey Cultural Precinct at a cost of $950. The postcard promotes Labor’s proposed policy announced this month to force councils to cap their rates at the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and justify any further increases. The council has hit back at Mr Perera this week, saying he was poorly informed about the facts. Mr Perera said rather than attack him for standing up for Casey ratepayers, the council should be looking at ways to cut costs. “I will not step back from standing up for ratepayers par-

ticularly from a council that spent ratepayer’s money on celebrity impersonators,” he said. Councillor Sam Aziz said the attack was a bit rich coming from Mr Perera, who was a member of the Bracks and Brumby government which wasted billions of dollars on an unused desalination plant and was responsible for the Myki transport ticketing system. “Two clear examples of wasting not just thousands, or even millions of dollars, but billions of dollars,” he said. Cr Aziz said while the council does not have a formal position on Labor’s proposal to cap rates, the council supported the advocacy undertaken by the Municipal Association of Victoria and the Victorian Local Governance Association against this proposal. “These positions point out that in an environment of costs rising faster than CPI, costshifting from state and federal government to local government and freezing of the Federal Grants Commission funds to local government for the next three years at the 2013 level, the financial sustainability of local government needs rate increases higher than CPI,” he said. “The proposal to cap rates is

a populist and poorly researched policy position designed to appeal to the hip-pocket of voters. “The inclusion of reference to council’s promotional methods for the proposed fantastic new multi-use community, cultural and civic precinct is a poor attempt to characterise as waste an entertaining video that cost only $950 to produce.” Councillor Wayne Smith said it was not unusual for projects of the Casey Cultural Precinct’s size to engage highprofile ambassadors to assist with advocacy and increase awareness. “Council is responsibly and entertainingly promoting the best arts and theatre complex which will be developed in Melbourne’s south-east and which will be used by theatre groups and numerous schools for school productions and speech nights instead of having to travel outside the municipality to more distant locations,” he said. “Mr Perera needs to understand the needs of the community better and also to understand that promotion of such a complex will actually enhance the financial operation of the complex.”

300 hour Budget cuts hit service penalty By LACHLAN MOORHEAD

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS AN ENDEAVOUR Hills man has been convicted and ordered to do 300 hours of unpaid community work after a spate of trafficking and driving offences. In Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday, Michael James Karam, 26, pleaded guilty to more than 30 charges, including 12 counts of driving during a six-month licence suspension period in 2012 and 2013. During the time he was twice detected speeding at least 20 km/h over the speed limit. The court was told that on several occasions he had told police he had driven while suspended because he had not wanted to ask anyone else to drive him to his night shift work. Karam was also charged with trafficking, possession and use of amphetamines, and several counts of possessing gammahydroxybutyrate (GHB) and methamphetamines (ice). He had admitted to police that he used all of the substances during his arrests. The court was told his unregistered car contained 15 car keys - all from different vehicles - as well as a bottle of GHB and 0.8 grams of ice after being intercepted at Hampton Park shopping centre in August. On 18 December 2012, Karam - while his licence was suspended - fell asleep behind the wheel on Monash Freeway, his car veering right and mounting the steel dividing barrier.

Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said if not for his guilty plea, Karam would have been jailed for 12 months. Karam was also fined $500 for failing to wear a seatbelt and using a mobile phone while driving. Mr Vandersteen was encouraged by Karam being forthright about his drug use, had no prior convictions, was not estranged from family and still had a job. Up to 100 hours of Karam’s community work could be deducted in lieu of drug treatment and rehabilitation. Karam’s night curfew was removed but was warned to beware “when the shackles come off”. “It’s a very slippery slope in regards to those drugs you’ve used,” Mr Vandersteen said. He warned Karam to stay away from his past “associates”. “I would bet your mum has never told you to use drugs,” he said. Karam replied: “I realised that too late.” Mr Vandersteen said he had previously had a “great deal of confidence” in another accused that he’d assigned to a similar community work order last week but that order was breached within a few days. Mr Vandersteen ordered the destruction of the seized drugs and paraphernalia including glass pipes, a knife and several mobile phones containing texts which suggested drug deals.

A NEW Narre Warren legal service specialising in family violence incidents will have no choice but to close its doors if the Federal Government follows through on its planned budget cuts, a leading solicitor from the group says. The new Narre Warren office of the Casey Cardinia Community Legal Service, officially opened in Victor Crescent in March but operating since last year, is in jeopardy of closing down after the Commonwealth Government announced plans to cease funding previously guaranteed to the service through a four-year agreement which started last year. Casey Cardinia Community Legal Service Principal Solicitor Vera Hardiman said under the agreement the service was promised funding until 2017, currently used towards the operating cost of its Narre Warren office, but which now looks set to stop as of 30 June 2015. It comes as this month’s Federal Budget also foreshadowed a further $6 million in cuts from community legal services. Ms Hardiman said the closure of the Narre Warren office would significantly reduce the number of people the service could help locally. “With the growing population and the incredible local level of need, we need to expand, rather than shrink,” she said. “Our centre faces the closure of its new Narre Warren branch office, which means a cut in services to local residents. “Without the office, we would have to return to renting a room from a local agency for one or two days per week, to see clients in the Narre Warren area. This would significantly reduce the number of people we could help locally.” Ms Hardiman, who works at the Narre Warren office three days a week, said the new facility had already been able to service a great number of people

Casey Cardinia Community Legal Service Principal Solicitor Vera Hardiman fears the service’s new Narre Warren office will be forced to shut down if the Federal Government follows through with its proposed budget cuts. Picture: DONNA OATES in the Casey community in a short space of time. “A lot of people are saying they really love the location that we’re in, in a building where there are other services that also refer their clients to us, disability services,” she said. La Trobe MP Jason Wood said the government was considering options for future legal assistance arrangements from 1 July 2015 that will be in line with the findings of the Productivity Commission’s inquiry into access to justice ar-

rangements and the recent Review of the National Partnerships Agreement (NPA). “As part of the budget announced this month, $15m of funding was withdrawn, but it needs to be understood that this was supplementary funding,” Mr Wood said. “This was never part of the major funding provided to legal aid commissions under the NPA and would have expired at the end of the financial year in any event.”

Making the cuppas count By BRIDGET COOK MORE than 100 people turned out in Cranbourne last week to make their cuppa count as part of the Biggest Morning Tea. The Balla Balla Community Centre hosted a fund-raising event on Tuesday 20 May and managed to raise about $1700. The money will go to the Cancer Council for cancer prevention, research and support services. One of the organisers, Jo Hall, said the event was a huge success. “Maree Cullinan, manager at Balla Balla, and a team of volunteers organised all the details, providing catering, table service and administration activities to ensure a successful day,” she said. “The event went remarkably smoothly and was declared a resounding success with dollars raised and the

satisfaction of those attending. “MC Rita Hartney ensured an upbeat program with her dynamic and witty personality. “Guest speaker Kate Welk had the audience’s full attention with her entertaining and emotional personal cancer story and guest entertainer, singer Jessie Asadur, enchanted the audience with her melodious voice.” Ms Hall said they had received great feedback from all those who attended. “The attendees wholeheartedly embraced the spirit of the day, generously supporting raffles and the ‘best tea cup’ competition,” she said. “Feedback received on the day was very positive and the quality of morning tea was a highlight.” Ms Hall thanked businesses Whoops a Daisy Florist and Wicked Sensations for sponsoring the event.

POLICE are looking to identify a truck driver who abused and punched another man in a road rage incident this month. Two men in a truck followed a car being driven by a man along Heatherton Road, from Stud Road, hurling abuse at him and driving erratically around him about 6.40pm on Friday 16 May. The victim stopped behind the truck in traffic on the Monash Freeway entry and the driver of the truck got out of his vehicle. The truck driver approached the victim, opened his car door, grabbed him by the shirt and punched him several times to

the face and upper body. He then slammed the car door, got back in the truck and drove off along the Monash Freeway outbound. The truck driver was described as being about 30 years old, Caucasian, with short brown hair, of muscular build and wearing white shorts and T-shirt. The truck was a white Mitsubishi and is believed to have had Queensland number plates. Police said there was lots of traffic around at the time and plenty of witnesses. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

They see red over traffic By BRIDGET COOK TRAFFIC congestion on a number of Casey roads has residents seeing red on daily basis. That is why the City of Casey has urged people to help them in their advocacy efforts to push for upgrades by nominating local congested road locations in the 2014 RACV Redspot survey before Sunday 1 June. The RACV classifies a redspot as a location on the road or public transport network with unnecessary or excessive congestion. These can include intersections, part of a road, a railway crossing or along a bus or tram route. Casey councillor Sam Aziz urged all Casey residents to make their voice count by voting in this year’s survey. “After the 2012 Redspot Survey, over $800 million was committed to fixing some of Victoria’s most notorious redspots,” he said. “The major congestion locations in Casey are on the state arterial road network.” Residents can support the council’s advocacy for transport upgrades by registering locations through the survey. The survey is held every two years to allow the public to have their say on redspots across the state, with the results used to advocate to the State Government and Opposition Government for funding commitments. This survey links in with the council’s advocacy campaign, Make Your Voice Count, launched in the lead-up to the election in November to bring much-needed services and infrastructure to Casey. Three of the priorities of the Make Your Voice Count campaign

Congestion along Hallam Road, Hampton Park. include notorious road redspots across Casey, including: Duplication of Narre Warren Cranbourne Road from Thompsons Road to South Gippsland Highway; Upgrading the Western Port Highway and Thompsons Road intersection; and Upgrading the South Gippsland Highway, Evans Road and Hallam Road intersection, which would also allow Evans Road to be reopened to through traffic. For more information or to complete the survey visit www. redspotsurvey.com.au or contact the RACV’s Public Policy Department on 9790 2863.

Set for perfect presentation By BRIDGET COOK THE atmosphere in the Narre Warren North Hall each Thursday morning for the past few weeks has been electric. That is because rehearsals are now underway for the inaugural Rotary Club of Casey Presentation Ball for people with a disability who have never had the opportunity to be involved in such an event before. The smiles in the room were infectious – from the participants working hard to learn their dance moves to the organisers who watched on to see how much joy it has brought to people’s lives already. The initiative all came about after a representative from the City of Casey and disability service provider Scope visited The Rotary Club of Casey and asked if it could run a presentation ball for people with a disability. Since then, preparations have been in full swing in the lead up to the big night on Saturday 30 August at Cardinia Cultural Centre. A number of businesses and organisations have thrown their support behind the event already including dance director Simone Robbins who runs the rehearsals for free, Imij Hair who has offered to do participants’ hair and a number of make-up artist who are ready to get the women dolled up. A member of the Casey Rotary Club will arrange the formal wear for those involved and Narre Warren North Hall is not charging for the use. There are already 27 people, ranging from 21 to 88-years-old who have signed up to take part from disability service providers across Casey, Cardinia and Greater Dandenong including Scope, Yooralla, The Bridge, Outlook and Wallara. Lynne Westland, chairwoman of the organising committee and member of Casey Rotary, said so far the event has

brought as much joy to those involved in the organising as it has to the participants. “The ball is an opportunity for people with a disability to participate in a high profile event which is focused on improving health and wellbeing, enhancing confidence and self-esteem and providing an opportunity to gain new friendships,” she said. “This will have ongoing and lasting benefits.

“It is an innovative way to promote positive images of people with a disability and raise awareness, acceptance and inclusion of people with a disability in our community. “Further to this, parents, carers and friends will be given an opportunity to view with pride the achievements of their loved ones who are meeting their personal goals and aspirations. “All those involved have not had a chance to be presented at a ball and

we are helping give them that opportunity.” Ms Westland said after a few rehearsals organisers have already seen the joy in the faces of those involved. “Rehearsals have just been so much fun,” she said. “They all laugh and get into and interact with each other. “It’s been the most humbling thing to watch and I’m just so glad we took this on.”

Organisers are still looking for support and urged anyone who could assist with sponsorship or donations to get in touch with Ms Westland on 0407 998 556 or Margaret Heslin on 0417 210 747. Ms Westland said there were still places available for people with a disability who might also like to get involved and urged anyone to call them to find out more.

Business profiles

Evolving music scene MUSIC is going through a new evolution in the area thanks to Luke Hatch and his new store and music academy. Luke is managing director of the new Evolution Music which opened on the first floor of Unit 10, 2-8 Northey Road, Lynbrook, three months ago. Evolution aims to stock a wide-range of instruments to suit all levels of musicianship. It is a musical instrument retailer which also provides instrument hire and servicing. The music academy offers lessons in guitar, bass, piano, drums, vocal, saxophone and other wind instruments. “Customers say to us that the ambience of our store makes them want to spend time viewing and playing our unique range of instruments,” Luke said. “Our displays of exclusive brands gives the customer a good choice and our prices and aftersales service is what today’s consumer is looking for in a retailer. “We always strive to give our customers the best price possible. “Our keyboard and acoustic guitar sale on 31 May will be our first sale since opening and we will have great deals.” Luke said Evolution stocks a very wide range of instruments including electric and acoustic guitars, bass guitars and amps, drums, keyboards and digital pianos. Evolution also has a range of PA equipment, effects and print music. Its exclusive range of brass and wind instruments has also just arrived. “We are focused on providing this rapidly growing region with a great range of products and to develop, through our teaching academy, the future musicians of the area,” he said.

Get the word on homemaking

Luke Hatch is aiming to develop local musical talent through his new store, Evolution Music. 121202 “Our exclusive brands are world-class and well worth looking at before you make the final decision on your next instrument.” And while Evolution Music has only been operating for the past three months, Luke himself is no stranger to the world of music and musical instruments. Starting in 1996 with Allan’s Music, he also worked with Concerts Music before taking the position of musical products manager with APMC. He also worked part-time at Whitehorse Music until opening his new shop. “Our other guitar specialist, Denis Sudzuka, who also teaches in our academy, and Candice, our piano, keyboard and print specialist, complete our team,” Luke said. Music is Luke’s passion and he said, as such, Evolution will be sponsoring more local events as it establishes itself. Its first foray, though, will be the Hard Rock Show on Channel 31 shortly. For all music needs, head to Unit 10, 2-8 Northey Road, Lynbrook, or phone 8787 8599.

CALLING ALL GOLFERS PRESENTED to impress, this immaculate red brick classic is touched with the engaging warmth of Federation-inspired elements. Why pay body corporate fees for a golf course, when if you become a Cranbourne Golf Club member you can apply to have a rear gate allowing access to this highly regarded golf course. Large enough for the whole family, the floor plan strikes a balance that creates a perfect environment for everyone to enjoy. The sunken formal lounge enjoys plenty of space for entertaining, while the formal dining is ideal for relaxed daily activities. The oak style kitchen is open planned to the second living area that flows outside to the delightful entertaining and a barbecue area. A second courtyard on the opposite side of the home makes an ideal spot for that quiet cup of coffee.

We don’t mind if you change our plans. It’s called layout flexibility. Arden Homes is a different sort of company creating very different homes. Firstly, our homes are architect designed and inspired to bring a new sense of space, light and sweeping architectural proportions. You sense the difference immediately. Innovative sun courts, picture windows and full length windows and views that connect inside and out are hallmarks of our design. We insist on luxury standard inclusions such as porcelain tiles, Smeg appliances, Franke sinks, quality carpet, and stone benchtops throughout. Secondly, we limit the number of houses we build, and are up-front about the pricing of display home extras. “Arden let us swap rooms around so our new home is exactly as we want it.” – Sharon and Michael, Croydon And best of all, we encourage layout ﬂexibility. It means you can work with us to switch and swap rooms and features to suit your lot size, orientation and family needs. Visit an Arden display to see and feel the difference. And ask us how we can tailor the design to make one of our stunning homes your unique dream home.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST

Apprentice has it nailed By CASEY NEILL SHARING the Victorian Apprentice of the Year title last week marked a turnaround in Rhonda Neil’s fortunes. In February, thieves stole a trailer with $20,000 in tools from the 24-year-old carpenter’s Dandenong North home. “I’d spent all my money buying tools over the past four years, and it all got stolen on Valentine’s Day,” she said. Ms Neil, who did her apprenticeship with Junction Village business Willright Nominees, and Brandon Betts were jointly presented the Master Builders Association of Victoria Apprentice of the Year Award on 9 May. The title included $4000 worth of tools, workwear and vouchers. Master Builders chief executive Radley de Silva said the pair exemplified the skills, work ethic and positive attitude required to be a successful tradesperson in the building and construction industry. “This year was too close to call, causing our judges to award the first-ever joint State Apprentice of the Year Award,” he said. Rhys Linnett from Springvale South won the Apprentice Bricklayer of the Year award and Ms Neil also won the Female Apprentice of the Year honour. “I kind of knew about the female one a little bit, but the other one I had no idea and that was a massive

shock,” Ms Neil said. She completed her four-year carpentry apprenticeship three months ago and continues to be sub-contracted by Willright Nominees. Boss Barney Patterson was “like a proud dad” after her win. “I think he’s told every single person he knows,” she said. “We do a lot of work at Wesley College. He put up a sign at Wesley on Monday. It was so embarrassing.” Mr Patterson, who nominated Ms Neil for the award, said he had no regrets about taking on a female apprentice. “She’s the first female I’ve employed and she’s one of the best apprentices I’ve ever had,” he said. “She’s a great worker, thinks outside the square and is capable of working on her own. “I wouldn’t hesitate to employ a woman again.” Ms Neil’s father, Ryan, cried when they called out her name for the top prize. “We’ve been going through a lot of crap,” she said. And it was her dad that set her on a path to carpentry. “We used to build stuff in the shed when I was little,” she said. She excelled at woodwork at high school and taught the craft at a school camp in America during a gap year in 2009. “When I was travelling I still

Apprentice of the Year Rhonda Neil. 120377 Picture: DONNA OATES didn’t know what I wanted to do,” she said. “I never really wanted to go to uni - I wasn’t too good at studying, but I was always handy.” Ms Neil started her apprenticeship soon after returning to Australia. She said it wasn’t hard to fit in on work sites. “I’ve always kind of been one of the boys,” she said. “I played field hockey when I was younger and I played on the boys’ team instead of the girls’ team. “If you can take it and give it back then you’ll be all right. If

you’re going to get emotional then it’s never going to work.” Her favourite part of the job is seeing clients’ reactions. “Watching their faces light up truly makes me feel like I have achieved something great,” she said. “To be able to create someone’s dream home or a place for them to make memories is very fulfilling.” Ms Neil is in the running for the National Apprentice of the Year which is being presented at the Annual Excellence in Building and Construction Awards at Parliament House, Canberra, on 21 November.

MORE than 80 hopeful businesses will have to wait until August to learn if they are in the running to win a Casey Cardinia Business Award this year. City of Casey manager of eonomic development David Wilkinson said more than 80 business awards applications were received by the closing date on 16 May and the judging process would be extremely difficult due to the exceptionally high standard of the entrants. This year’s applications cover a wide range of businesses from sole operators to large enterprises which shows the diversity of those working within the region. Mr Wilkinson said the Casey Cardinia Business Awards were a great way to acknowledge and celebrate the many outstanding businesses operating in the Casey Cardinia region. “It is an opportunity to recognise excellence and support the region’s thriving business community,” he said. “As a follow on from the highly successful individual award programs of both the City of Casey and Cardinia Shire Council, these inaugural regional awards are a chance to bring attention to the local success stories by showcasing the great work being done across the Casey Cardinia region.” Finalists for the Casey Cardinia Business Awards will be announced at a function which is to be held at Monash University on Thursday 14 August. Winners will be announced at a gala dinner which is to be held on 9 October at the Cardinia Cultural Centre.

Manufacturing still a success By LACHLAN MOORHEAD RAY Keefe is here to tell Australian manufacturers that the industry they have devoted their careers to is not dead. The managing director of Successful Endeavours, based in Berwick, was buoyed by the recent national Endeavour Awards which was held this month in Sydney at which his business was lucky enough to have an exhibit and where innovation was the buzz word. Mr Keefe said his company received an extremely favourable response from the exhibition, while his confidence in the Australian manufacturing industry had been re-affirmed. “The general picture you get from the federal level is that manufacturing is dead, but manufacturing is the fourth largest sector of the overall Australian economy, only a little smaller than mining, and it’s the largest industry sector in Victoria still, according to the Australian Bureau of Statistics,” he said. “Decline is expected for a number of reasons but nobody expects us to make low grade products in Australia. “What we definitely can do is niche and high value products that are highly sophisticated in a number of sectors.” This is where Successful Endeavours comes in. Founded in 1997, and with a strong foundation in audio engineering and analogue signal processing and design, Mr Keefe’s company is at the forefront of electronics and embedded software development. It is the kind of innovation that saw Successful Endeavours crowned a finalist at the recent Endeavour Awards held

Junette and Ray Keefe (front), and Joyce Pinto and Matt Ratten (back), here holding several of their production items, hope Successful Endeavours will become an international market leader in the manufacturing industry. this year at the Sydney Showgrounds, an annual event which recognises the high achievers throughout the Australian manufacturing industry. While the team at Successful Endeavours were no strangers to the awards, they were also invited to hold an exhibit at the event with the Casey Cardinia Region group for the first time. “We went up to represent the Casey Cardinia stands and if you know what the two councils are doing in terms of cooperating for economic development it’s an innovative move,” Mr Keefe said. “We were going to be up there anyway for the Endeavour Awards and we had thought about exhibiting but decided the whole cost and week weren’t worth it. Casey Cardinia then offered to give us some of their stands.

“The interesting thing is that we were the only product development company there, the only electronics manufacturers from Australia. “We came back with roughly 10 industry contacts, six leads and already a new client. Within a week, we’ve already landed a new client.” Mr Keefe said it was an opportunity his company would definitely jump at again - anything to reassure manufacturers about a bright future that is still attainable within the industry. “There are companies that are growing, but where we’re seeing doom and gloom is in traditional manufacturing sectors and automobile manufacturing,” he said. “I think that you can do better in manufacturing if you rethink the whole thing.”

City of Casey mayor Geoff Ablett with Berwick Mazda general sales manager Trevor Arnold.

Mazda backs mentor program By BRIDGET COOK SUPPORT from Berwick Mazda has been a driving force behind the continued success for Casey’s L2P Learner Driver Mentor Program. The car dealer has just donated its fourth new fully maintained and serviced vehicle to the program since it began in 2010. The community-based road safety initiative assists learners without ready access to supervising drivers or vehicles to maximise their supervised driving experience in a new vehicle with a trained volunteer mentor driver.

City of Casey mayor Geoff Ablett said the program would not be possible without the generosity and support of Berwick Mazda. “The continued commitment from Berwick Mazda is key in keeping the program running and providing Casey’s youth with the skills necessary to drive safely,” he said. The City of Casey is currently receiving a steady flow of applications from young people wishing to join the program, so additional support is required in order for the program to remain sustainable. “The program relies heavily on volunteer participation and

there is currently a need for new volunteers to assist young drivers,” Cr Ablett said. Since its introduction, the L2P program has helped 102 young people gain driving experience and 64 of these participants have gained their probationary licences. Casey volunteers have provided more than 7000 hours of driving experience and together with participants have travelled more than 180,000 kilometres. Businesses or community members who would like to support the L2P Program can contact City of Casey Customer Service on 9705 5200.

Watch our man in 20 By JARROD POTTER

Darren McDonald, right, is pictured here with his Sandown Cup-winning greyhound ’Sweet It Is’, TAB’s Jaimee Rogers, and Eddie McGuire - who hosted the $120,000 ’The Dog, The Money or The Box’ competition last Thursday. Picture: SANDOWN GREYHOUNDS

How sweet it really 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. 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. Since the Sandown Cup, McDonald has also claimed the Group 2 WA Derby making it four black type race wins in just 10 days.

Mason’s got the gift of gab By RUSSELL BENNETT

Mason Faumuina aims to one day race on the national stage. 121170 Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT

CRANBOURNE Little Athletics star Mason Faumuina definitely has the gift of the sprinting gab. He competed on Stawell Gift day last month, finishing fourth in the 100-metres boys final, and he has national goals in mind. The Year 7 student at St Paul’s Anglican Grammar School in Warragul said he was nervous in the lead-up to his first Stawell Gift carnival, but he kept up his routine of watching motivational videos on YouTube to get in the right

frame of mind prior to the race. He has run, and won, other gifts before - including the under-13/14 Cranbourne Meteorite - but Stawell was something different. He said he was happy with his performance at Stawell, but is already running faster times and aims on breaking the 11-second barrier by the end of the year. Still going through continual growth spurts, Mason said he only started to get “really serious” about his running last year but he’s now constantly racing and hopes to one day reach national level.

The 12-year-old regularly competes with the Cranbourne Little Athletics - based out of Casey Fields - and trains on the grass track at Toomuc Reserve most Sundays during the season. His current personal best times are 13.31 for the 100-metres and 27.10 for the 200. The Australia Post Stawell Gift is one of Australia’s oldest and richest sporting events and is now seen as the most prestigious foot race in the country. This year’s event was held on the Easter long weekend, Friday 18 to Monday 21 April.

CANNONFIRE will be prominent in school state hockey this year with Casey Cannons’ Tristan Chaffey set to ignite his representative journey. Chaffey, 15, from Pakenham, was selected in the final 16-man School Sport Victoria Under-16 squad to clash for the national championship in Adelaide in August. The Beaconhills College student has been playing for a decade and wants to emulate his hockey role model Matthew Swann - including always wearing Swann’s famous number 20. Helping boost the profile of south east suburbs hockey is another bonus for Chaffey making the SSV team - as it helps show the metropolitan centric hockey community the outer areas are just as capable. “It was pretty cool to make the team,” Chaffey said. “It’s very good, very strong. “You don’t see many athletes out here since you have the Youngs and the Lights and T.J. (Tyler Jacobs) making the team for Under-12s - so it’s pretty good.” Chaffey is the ultimate utility. He played most of his junior career forward but now wants to switch defensively to help set up the play and bring his team mates into the match. “Anywhere really - juniors I play full back, seniors I play forward,” Chaffey said. “State level I play back and hoping in the future in seniors to move towards the backline - it’s the preferred position and I’ve been more of a distributor than a scorer. “I’ve done enough scoring now - I’ve got something like 200 goals over the years.” Outside of knocking off New South Wales, the true test of any Victorian school state team, Chaffey wants to develop the necessary skills to continue making state teams throughout his time in the junior ranks. “I want to learn what I need to learn to make that team more often and future state teams,” Chaffey said. “You can say ‘I know what I need to do’ but usually there’s stuff on top of that you need… extra things you need to learn… you’re always learning in this sport.” Chaffey wanted to thank his mates, family and Cannons’ coaches and players Matt Guastella, Bryce Davis and Andrew Shelton for their help with his development. See Chaffey and the rest of the Victorian squad in action at the School Sport Victoria, 16-Years-and-Under Hockey Championships in Adelaide from 9-16 August.

Heading for one serious stack

Gave nothing away By JARROD POTTER TAKING the hard road to victory, Casey Cavaliers had to sprint home to triumph 71-69 over an impressive North East Bushrangers line-up. Trailing 51-59 heading into the final term, the Cavaliers’ women had their backs to the wall as the Bushrangers surged through Rachel Jeffrey (27 points) and Stacey Browne (16 points). Casey locked down defensively to give the visitors nothing but bad looks at the basket - resulting in a fiveminute deadlock where the Bushrangers couldn’t score. On the other end, Casey found its long-range game as Lara Pauline started the quarter with the first trey. Missing chances to go ahead, Casey had to battle as North East resumed its scoring to resume the lead with less than a minute remaining.

It came down to Cavaliers forward/centre Jess Szalek. Finding previously unafforded room outside the perimeter, Szalek’s shot flew through for the crucial three-pointer to go ahead by a point with seconds left. One of the last North East shots - a pair of free throws with 26 seconds remaining - failed to drop and Casey was able to extract a foul and take the two-point win. Captain Amy Mcfarlane hit 16 points with Szalek (14 points, 9 rebounds) and Lara Pauline (11 points) while Cassie Bridge (11 points) picked up season high points. “For us in that one was to calm down,” Casey coach Tim Parker said. “The end of our third we knew then Bushrangers would come out hard in that third, they’ve had a bit of a write up in Big V about their

third quarter fade, so we knew they’d come out hard and they did. “It was about calming down, doing the things we do well and slowly grinding our way back into the game.” The Cavaliers men struggled much less in a 72-46 walkover of the Bushrangers. Closely held in the first half - with a 29-22 lead - Stewart Baird’s cavalry charged to knock down 43 points in the second half to run out 26 point winners. Strong showings came from Matt Pebole (19 points, 8 rebounds) and Matt Witherden (13 points, 17 rebounds) while Brandon Paris brought down the house with his first shot this season - drilling a three-pointer to seal the win. Casey’s three teams now host Coburg in a Saturday night triple-header starting at 4.30pm with the Youth men.

NOT even the best kitchen hands can stack as fast as Lyndhurst speed stacker Ravin Rathnayake. The St Margaret’s School super stacking student stormed into the top-tier rankings with a fourth place finish in the 7-8 male 3-6-3 final at the World Speed Stacking Association’s (WSSA) World Sport Stacking Championships in Joenju, South Korea. His time of 3.027 is the new Australian record for his age group and Ravin is able to go even quicker with a sub-three-second time almost in his grasp at the championships. “I became fourth in the 3-3-3 stack, but I hit the goal - which in my final attempt at the 3-6-3 I hit a 2.950 but it was one cup scratched, but even though two of them were clean,” Ravin said. “It’s pretty good, but I thought I was going to get third but they changed it.” He’s been a natural convert to the sport even since first picking up the cups as a four-year-old and he wants to keep performing better times and making a big impact in the world’s quickest sport. “I started when I was four-years-old and my first tournament was a state tournament in 2012… I came first,” Ravin said. “In the Australian champion my dad thinks I’ll hit a seven (second time) on the cycle - because I hit an eight and I’m pretty sure that I’ll hit a seven this time.” Meeting a world champion William Polly was a great highlight for Ravin at the world championships and he hopes to keep pushing his times down and improving his technique for his beloved cycle discipline. “I probably like the cycle because it’s the most complex one and I can do it,” Ravin said. “I want to hit a nine always rather than hitting the bigger times than nine as Ty (coach Ty Hallam) always says.” Ravin wanted to thank his speed stacking coach Ty Hallam.

By JARROD POTTER BERWICK CITY women could not find the go-ahead goal against South Yarra, conceding a 1-2 loss away on Sunday. A rough-and-tumble match went the home side’s way as South Yarra slotted a pair of goals to push past City and move up to fourth on the ladder. Berwick City coach Tony Rafferty praised the attack of his best midfielder Natalie Holmes - who slotted the only City goal of the afternoon “Very hard-fought match, could’ve gone either way, but we went down 1-2,” Rafferty said. “Very physical game but good football from both teams. “Best without a doubt was Natalie Holmes - our attacking midfielder - scored the goal and was fantastic. “Everyone else put in some great efforts, but Ellie Priest put in some great crosses across the goals only

for our forwards to miss out on the strike.” Rafferty’s charges now take up sixth place on the 10-team State League 1 ladder and face Caulfield United Cobras at home on Sunday. The Berwick City coach isn’t taking the visiting challenge lightly. “The challenge is there without a doubt and it’s certainly not an easy league, nor should it be, we’ve only had one season in it and placed fifth, so our goal this season is the top four,” Rafferty said. “It’s going to be tough but that’s the way we like it.” In Women’s Premier League action, Casey Comets salvaged a 2-2 draw with the FFV Under 17 Girls. Laura Croft’s injury time penalty her second goal for the afternoon - helped snare the Comets a point and help maintain its eighth spot on the ladder. The Comets host Bundoora on Friday night from 8.30pm.

NPL1 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 City host Whittlesea Ranges on Saturday. STATE LEAGUES CASEY Comets fell to Morwell Pegasus 1-2 to slip to eighth on the FFV State League 1 South East ladder while in State League 2, Berwick City was quashed at home by Warragul United 1-2 despite a goal from captain Orlando Mejias, while Doveton SC split the points with North Caulfield following a 2-2 draw as the Matt connection - Matt Williams and Matt Evans - both slotted goals.

Winning streak By DAVID NAGEL THE Casey Cardinia Football League is just one step away from a top-10 ranking in the state after the Demons overcame a nervous start to down Bellarine by 45 points at Geelong’s Simonds Stadium on Saturday. The CCFL now stands alongside Geelong and Central Highlands as the only leagues in Victoria to have won all three inter-league contests since the Worksafe VCFL Championship restructure in 2012. Wins over Nepean, Wimmera, and now Bellarine have seen the Demons climb from 17th to 12th, with a showdown against Sunraysia next year to decide if the Demons can make it four-in-a-row and continue their rise up the rankings. Bellarine looked the better team in the first quarter with its fleet-footed half-backs capitalising on some sloppy use of the ball from the normally exquisitely skilled Demons midfield. If not for the magnificent work of Kain Baskaya, Nick Scanlon, Brandon Osborne and Nathan Brown down back, the Demons could have been much further in arrears than the 20-point margin at quarter time. Coach Michael ‘Jock’ Holland instructed his team to dispose of its short kicking and go long in the second quarter, a simple instruction that transformed the Demons from confused - into a confident and hard-running machine. Midfielders like Matt Wade, Josh Tonna, Michael Collins, Steve O’Bryan, Matt Lee and Dom Paynter took control, benefitting from the great work of Kym Jones and Jake Gains in the ruck. Goal-kicking machines Marc Holt and Kerem Baskaya, and the heir apparent Jordy Andrews, started licking their lips. Baskaya and Andrews kicked three each for the afternoon, but it was Holt who took centre stage with eight goals in a best-on-ground performance. The Cranbourne ace marked everything in sight as the Demons kicked 12 goals to one in the second and third terms to take a stranglehold on the match. Kain Baskaya, Wade, Scanlon, Tonna and Osborne joined Holt as the Demons’ best contributors.

Cranbourne’s Max Gearon was a solid contributor in Casey Cardinia’s interleague win over Bellarine on Saturday and will look to take that form into this week’s clash with Doveton. 121236

CASEY Cardinia football starts the middle-phase of its season on Saturday with the top five take on the bottom five sides on the ladder in round seven. A two-game gap is likely to appear after this week’s round of matches, but for sides like sixthplaced Tooradin and seventh-placed ROC, there is still light at the end of the tunnel. It’s not inconceivable - and probably more likely - that by round 11, either the Seagulls or Kangaroos could be in equal fifth spot with Pakenham and making a real run at a finals berth. Tooradin can put its case forward with a strong showing when it welcomes the talented Berwick to Westernport Oval. The Seagulls midfield has some great top-end talent with Matt Wade a gun, Michael Hobbs a fantastic leader, but it’s that next level that needs to rise. Jake O’Donnell and youngsters Cameron Brown and Kris Sabbatucci are showing signs of getting there -but these things take time. Adam Galea, Jimmy Cottrell and Phil Burns will need to be on their toes down back with Berwick’s forward line of Nathan Waite and Jordy Andrews at the top of their game. The challenge that confronts ROC is huge. Back-to-back champ Narre Warren visits Starling Road with nine players backing up from last weekend’s inter-league win over Bellarine. And

all nine were influential. Kain Baskaya and Nick Scanlon produced a fantastic display across half back while Ryan Morrison and Ben King are young defenders on the rise. Blake Gilbert, Tom Marks and James Canty will try hard for the Kangas, but kicking a winning score is next door to impossible. In other games, Pakenham full-forward Daniel Fry will be looking for his first bag of the season when the Lions travel to Hampton Park; Cranbourne will welcome one or two stars back into its line-up when it visits Doveton, while Beaconsfield will begin its rush for a double-chance with a big-win over Keysborough.

The Casey-Cardinia interleague side which defeated Bellarine on Saturday, from back left: Coach Kerry Twyford, Tracey Dell (Narre Warren), Lynne Moyes (Berwick), Kaela Hughes (Beaconsfield), Maggie Taumao (Doveton), Emily Wilson (Berwick), Tayla Shannon (Narre Warren), Cara Humbert (Pakenham), scorer Tania Shannon and team manager Debby Stacey.

IT was a nail-biting end to a highly contested match at Geelong’s Simonds Stadium on Saturday, when the Casey Cardinia inter-league side snuck out a two-goal win over Bellarine. The side made up of top players from clubs across the league fired out to a great start, but their opponents weren’t going to let them get away with it that easily. Despite an eight-goal lead during the second quarter, positional changes from both sides at half time caused a turn up in the third term and CaseyCardinia was down by two at threequarter time. Coach Kerry Twyford said these changes didn’t achieve quite what they had in mind. “They made some changes at half time and so did we,” she said. “Theirs worked and ours didn’t work quite as well.”

The last quarter was nerve-racking for all involved and it was goal for goal for the first part. Twyford said a few turnovers in the dying minutes of the game and a couple of crucial goals from Narre Warren’s Tayla Shannon really helped the side get over the line. “It was a very close win,” Twyford said. Pakenham’s Meaghan Atkins first-time in the inter-league side was awarded best-on-court on the day, while Beaconsfield’s Jasmine Maddocks and Berwick’s Sarah McDermott were others to shine through the midcourt. Narre Warren pair, Tracey Dell and Tayla Shannon also received sponsorship awards. CASEY CARDINIA 11 BELLARINE 9

WE recently reported on the sporty version of the new Mazda3, the SP25, which was covered by Derek Ogden. Now we have come down a notch to the Mazda3 with the 2.0-litre engine, not the big 2.5 unit fitted to the SP25. Australians buy an amazing one tenth of all Mazda3s sold globally so itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s certainly worth reporting on the car again. The big-grille thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s such a feature of Mazdaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s latest styling theme plays a major part in its sales success on every model on which itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s used. The all-new Mazda3 is the best iteration yet of this interesting style, at least in my humble opinion. While itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lower than its predecessors, the third generation Mazda3 is longer overall and in its wheelbase which gives it a sportier look and more interior space. The sleek new body not only looks good but also provides best-in-class coefficient of drag, at 0.28 for the hatch and 0.26 in the sedan. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just the bodyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s shape, there is also an â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;activeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; radiator grille shutter that opens just enough to provide maximum cooling no matter what the outside air temperature. Body rigidity has been improved by 30 per cent compared to the superseded Mazda3, yet weight has been reduced by up to 70kg. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s thanks to the new computer-aided body design and the use of high tensilestrength steels in critical safety areas. Mazda3 is sold with a choice between two engine choices in Australia - a SkyActiv-G 2.0-litre petrol engine and a new SkyActiv-G 2.5-litre petrol engine. The â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Gâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; in the title stands for gasoline; a diesel option has just been announced, though these havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t proven particularly popular in other Mazda passenger cars. Transmissions are six-speed manual and six-speed automatic. Our test car had the manual

and we found the shift light and easy. Mazda3 offers lane departure warning, forward obstruction warning, and smart city brake support. Not all items are installed in all models as standard, and some can be fitted as extras. Should a crash still occur, the Mazda3 has six airbags and whiplash-reducing front headrests. The stretched body has created more rear seat legroom, with a reshaping of the front seatbacks giving added knee room. The base of the A-pillars have been repositioned rearwards to significantly improve the driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s view, particularly when cornering on twisty roads. The large outside mirrors are set further rearwards than before to also improve forward vision. A downside is that I found myself having to move my head to use the driverâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s side mirror, rather than relying on peripheral vision. The instrument cluster in the topline Mazda3 models has a single large gauge for the tachometer. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s flanked by a pair of smaller digital displays, one of them showing a digital speedometer. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve driven both instrument types in recent weeks and canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say we have a strong preference either way. We arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t sure why the designers chose to hide the pushbutton starter behind the windscreen wiper stalk, perhaps they

simply ran out of room on the dashboard. We like the on-road feel of the new Mazda3. Its stronger body gives a feeling thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s almost European in its rigidity. Road grip is high and the feedback through the steering is nicely weighted. The engine is responsive and has a sporty feeling thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s in keeping with the heritage of the company. Fuel consumption in daily driving is usually in the seven to nine litres per 100 kilometres range. On motorways and easy country roads this can come below six litres if the driver puts their attention into getting the best from the car. The previous Mazda3 was an impressive small-medium car that was loved by many Australian buyers to the extent that it managed to top the overall sales charts in 2011 and 2012. This all-new model has been improved in every area and seems likely to put up a big fight in the sales race against the new Toyota Corolla - the car that took top spot on the podium from Mazda3 in 2013. Model range From the Neo 2.0-litre petrol five-door hatch: $20,490 (manual), $22,490 (automatic) to the SP25 Astina 2.5-litre petrol four-door sedan: $36,190 (manual), $38,190 (automatic).
