GUIDING FUTURES CREATING CAREERS IN THE NORTHERN SUBURBS

By NOEL MURPHY A LEADING health economist has accused Geelong’s NDIS trial centre of deliberating cutting clients from services and funding, denying their rights and ignoring complaints. In a savage attack on the high-profile Gillard Government initiative, Dr Katrina Alford said the NDIS was endangering the health of vulnerable people with a withering array of bureaucratic red tape and abuse of operational guidelines. “The NDIS is reprehensible,� she told the Independent. “They don’t tell participants the Regional Information and Advocacy Council (RIAC) has been funded to take care of complaints about the NDIS. “Ninety-nine per cent of people have no idea about it and are seriously floundering thinking it’s just them when they’re perfectly within their rights to complain, with legal assistance, to the Administrative Appeals Tribunal.� Dr Alford, a senior lecturer in economics at Melbourne University before setting up her own consultancy, said the NDIS appeared in breach of operational guidelines and the spirit of its legislation. The insurance scheme was “stripping participants and their families� of services they previously received and refusing to hear their complaints. “In many instances they refuse to allow immediate family members, guardians and disability service providers to attend planning meetings, which creates a massive power imbalance between participants and the system.� Dr Alford said NDIS adopted a one-size-fits-all approach, “denying the diversity and specificity of varying individual needs�.

THE IRON curtain closes soon on adverse publicity for the NDIS. That’s the implicit warning from public service spin doctor Julie Lawrence, apparently on her way to a job in the new outfit’s Geelong office. She foretold her media-management strategy on the Indy’s Facebook page – of all places under a link to last week’s frontpage story on the NDIS stripping assistance from Grovedale MS victim Rob Goodman. “Not good. Haven’t started yet but when I do this won’t be happening,” Jules commented ominously on the bad publicity. She’ll love this week’s paper, then.

Remember when Australia’s economy would have gone down the gurgler if not for a massive multi-billion education infrastructure cash injection? Apparently it kept us all afloat, especially those of us in school rooms built so hastily they didn’t quite meet the requirements to avoid flooding. Like at Newtown Primary School, where the entrance to the new building was sited at the bottom of a rather obvious slope. Sadly the need for speed didn’t extend to fixing the place up afterward. Fortunately, drainage works to fix the matter are now under way, several years later. At least it helped fix the economy, eh?

A CITY of Greater Geelong media release on the redevelopment of Portarlington Pier was revealing in more ways than one. A quote attributed to acting mayor Bruce Harwood made reference to the Portarlington safe harbour project and the push for a ferry service. But those comments were conveniently cut from the same quote issued in a media release from State Government, which, for obvious funding reasons, might like to keep the $30 million harbour project on the back burner. Then again, the City release also referred to additional “births”. Ahem, methinks it meant ‘berths’, unless the new pier has aphrodysiac qualities!

Pier funding ‘key to project’

Specialist advisors keep abreast of knowledge within the respective disciplines. “Our aim is to support in setting up viable and efficient systems”, says Paul Madden – CPA Accountant / Tax Agent / Businessman.

HOPE for Portarlington’s safe harbour project has been renewed after State Government announced a $3million redevelopment of the town’s pier. Safe harbour and ferry group president John Rae said the redevelopment was an “essential” first step in the safe harbour. “We’re delighted with the announcement but it’s just the start. We look forward to further announcements indicating what other parts of stage one will be funded during the election campaign. “We need to have funding for

stage one. The ALP previously announced a $15 million commitment for the safe harbour. “It’s essential the safe harbour is completed, so this is an encouraging start.” Mr Rae said the redevelopment was essential to the local aquaculture industry. Ports Minister David Hodgett said a new 175-metre-long, 4.5mwide pier would be built alongside the existing pier. Mr Hodgett said the Government was partnering City of Greater Geelong on planning for the “longer-term redevelopment of the pier and surrounding precinct.”

Deputy mayor Bruce Harwood said the City would continue working with the Government on “broader redevelopment” of the pier. “A redevelopment consistent with the Portarlington safe harbour proposal will stimulate investment in the commercial aquaculture industry, provide recreational boating facilities, create the potential for a ferry service and boost tourism for Portarlington and the Bellarine,” he said. Parks Victoria’s master plan for the harbour includes additional commercial and recreational berths, boating servicing and fuelling and capacity to accommodate a ferry service.

Player back from dead By NOEL MURPHY BYSTANDERS kept a baseballer alive with CPR and an on-site defibrillator after he collapsed with a heart attack at Deakin University on the weekend. Security officer Steven Janetzki said the man, in his 50s, had stopped breathing. Mr Janetzki described on his Facebook page how he and baseball club members worked “for what seemed the longest 15 to 20 minutes of my life” to resuscitate the man. “This person’s life was in our

Onlookers save baseballer hands and you don’t even know this person but you realise he is just like yourself and has family and friends who love him very much,” he said. “With every minute going by, you don’t ever think to give up and maybe someone was looking down on our efforts and just as the paramedics arrived the male person’s life was back with us. “I guess I will never know if it was due to our efforts or simply a miracle

that happened ... but the paramedics said if it wasn’t for us things might have been different.” The man was transported to Geelong Hospital where his condition was described on Wednesday as serious but stable. Ambulance paramedics were called to the Deakin Waurn Ponds campus at 12.20pm. An ambulance spokesman said bystanders carried out CPR “and got

an auto-defibrillator and shocked his heart before paramedics arrived”. “The paramedics continued CPR and further shocks were administered to the man’s heart by paramedics,” the spokesman said. “Paramedics were able to revive him and he was taken to Geelong Hospital in a serious condition.” Mr Janetzki said her would remember the incident for the rest of his life. “Things like this make me understand that life is amazing and I’m so very lucky to have the best family and friends and to live life with a smile every day.” CROSSING CAPERS: Half Cat joins South Geelong Primary School students Laura, Hunter, Harvey, Emerson and Emma to promote the safety message. 121492 Picture: REG RYAN

In brief Surgeons visit SPECIALIST surgeons will travel to Geelong for operations on children, saving families trips to Melbourne, Health Minister David Davis has announced. Mr Davis said the joint initiative of Barwon Health and Royal Children’s Hospital would treat about 200 young surgery patients a year from September.

Woman robbed POLICE are hunting three youths who robbed a disabled woman on a motorised scooter at Corio. Police said the 57-year-old woman hit them with her walking stick before they fled with a safety flag from her scooter last Friday.

Upgrade begins A $50 MILLION upgrade of the Great Ocean Road has begun, according to VicRoads. Regional director William Tieppo said the first stage of the five-year project would focus on road resurfacing, bridge repairs and “geotechnical maintenance” including landslips between Anglesea and Allansford.

Sewage award HELPING turn the region’s sewage into fertiliser has won a World Environment Day award for a Barwon Water plant. The $77 million Black Rock facility, which produces 140 tonnes of “biosolids” daily, won a water management category in the United Nationals Association of Australia awards.

‘Dangers’ fix TWO “dangerous” road black-spots in Geelong will undergo safety improvements, Corangamite MP Sarah Henderson has announced. She said the Abbott Government had allocated funding to upgrade Belmont’s Corio St between High St and the Princes Hwy and a roundabout at the intersection of Sparks Rd and Plume St, Norlane.

Art arrives AUSTRALIA’S “leading art event” for realism will arrive in Geelong next week, according to Courthouse ARTS. A spokesperson said the $52,000 Mortimer Prize would display a range of entries at Courthouse ARTS from Wednesday to 30 June.

STOP, look, listen and think. This advice could earn two local youngsters the chance to lead the Cats onto Simonds Stadium before next weekend’s clash with St Kilda. The Transport Accident Commission (TAC) has teamed up with Geelong’s council and the Cats to offer the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, rewarding safe school-crossing behaviour.

The region’s crossing supervisors and teachers will be looking out for kids aged six to 12 setting good safety examples at crossings. Two of the nominated students will become Cats mascots for the round-13 match and help skipper Joel Selwood lead out the team. The competition follows the TAC awarding City of Greater Geelong a $25,000 Community Safety Grant

to install brightly-coloured warnings outside 90 schools, urging students to ‘Stop, Look, Listen, Think’. TAC chief Janet Dore said the warnings spread an important safety message. “It’s all about encouraging kids to stop and find a safe place to cross, look for traffic, listen for instructions from adults and think about whether it’s safe to cross,” Ms Dore said.

“We know local kids love the Cats and we hope they’ll put their best foot forward in putting safety first.” Readers wanting to nominate a primary student should email their own name, the child’s name, school and reason for the nomination to rmorphett@geelongcity.vic.gov.au before midday Tuesday. Next week’s Independent will announce the winners.

A NORTH Geelong billboard is disrespecting the memory of fallen Diggers, according to war veterans. They want the council billboard removed from the middle of a Vietnam veterans Avenue of Honour on Melbourne Rd. Geelong Vietnam Veterans Association president Reiny Nieuwenhof said the organisation had complained to City Hall. “We recognise that taking that huge billboard out of there and relocating it, perhaps near the Separation St overpass, is an expensive exercise but it needs to happen to restore the integrity of the Avenue of Honour,” Mr Nieuwenhof said. “VicRoads and the City have allowed inappropriate intrusions into what Vietnam vets regard as

a memorial of the sacrifice of 521 men.” Mr Nieuwenhof said removing the billboard and another sign advertising a retail motorcycle dealership were part of a $130,000 project to create a “legacy” Vietnam veterans memorial. “Our objective is to restore the Avenue of Honour to its former glory by replacing the dead and missing trees. “Quite a number have gone because of the drought and capital works. A sign indicating the avenue is hidden by tree branches, so many people don’t even realise it’s there.” Mr Nieuwenhof said the association wanted to complete the project by 2016 in time for the Battle of Long Tan’s 50th anniversary. The project included restora-

tion of former Osborne Park gates and creating a path through them to a small memorial park on the corner of Swinburne St. The project proposed a series of interpretive panels, including one with the names of all Diggers who died in Vietnam, and a Long Tan cross near a Lone Pine on the grounds of Osborne Park. “We want to leave this as a legacy for the community of Geelong long after we as an organisation are gone,” Mr Nieuwenhof said. The association was seeking funding for the project through a buy-a-paver appeal and panel sponsorships. A City spokesman said officers would meet VicRoads officials this week to discuss roadside signage in the Avenue of Honour’s “immediate area”.

NDIS trial leaves clients worse off By NOEL MURPHY

SPEAKING OUT: NDIS cuts victim Rita Cebergs. 121385 “I wanted to go to school so I could get casual work but I don’t have money to pay and they won’t fund it. They say it won’t fit their parameters.” Ms Cebergs said the NDIS was badly equipped to deal with mental health clients, throwing up red tape barriers most were unable to negotiate. “I have to speak out not just for me but for people with mental health issues. “Now I have no cleaning where previously the council subsidised cleaning every fortnight. The NDIS said I’d have to have an occupational health therapist to see if I need funding for a cleaner. “I’m so upset.” The latest criticisms follow Grovedale MS sufferer Rob Goodman com-

Picture: REG RYAN

plaining in last week’s Independent after the agency removed virtually all her services and assistance. She wrote to the NDIS this week, saying paperwork, meeting, referrals and follow-up procedures were stressful, time-consuming and exhausting for applicants. She suggested the new system was aimed at reducing government costs for services to the disabled. Complaints lodged on the NDIS’s Facebook page include inflexible guidelines and cuts to mobility allowances and early intervention services for children with disabilities and developmental delays. Legal advocates soliciting work from aggrieved NDIS applicants made all the posts.

STRENGTH AND CONDITIONING PHYSIOTHERAPY, REHABILITATION

Cuts anger From page 1 Participants seeking reviews of decisions faced the suspension of all support services during the review period, which could take several weeks, Dr Alford said. Numerous complaints about the NDIS have been lodged with the Independent since last week’s story on Grovedale MS sufferer Rob Goodman losing support services. The complaints included: the NDIS sending letters to blind clients; cuts to services for a confused schizophrenia sufferer who, thinking NDIS phone calls were from telemarketers, rejected their requests; a cerebral palsy victim’s carer support cut from 15 to five hours a week; and security refused for the family of a problem autism client. The NDIS has come under repeated criticism since its inception, including former Centrelink chief Jeff Whalan likening the scheme to “a plane that took off before it had been built and is being completed in the air”. The Whalan review cited a large number of significant problems with guidance, IT systems, data and staffing. Ernst & Young partner Mark Dixon this week was reported saying urgent work was needed to halt problems in the scheme’s eventual rollout, scheduled for 2018, and that the disability service sector and governments were poorly prepared for the changes involved. “There needs to be an honest conversation about how this is going to be delivered...in theory it will be more efficient but it will take five to 10 years,” he was reported to have said. A “launch centre” for one of four NDIS trials was set up in Geelong’s Lt Malop St with 100 staff. The headquarters will employ up to 300 when the scheme is fully operational in five years. The NDIS had not provided a response to the claims when the Independent went to press.

Evening Courses 1136289-EJ21-14

GEELONG’S NDIS trial is proving disastrous for people with disabilities as it cuts their existing services and refuses to provide new assistance. “They’ve made our lives a living hell and they don’t give a damn,” an angry Linda Mathews told the Independent this week in the latest criticism of the controversial disability care scheme. Ms Mathews was concerned her 16-year-old son, who has a profound intellectual disability and autism, could die if the NDIS refused to help. “We couldn’t even get the funding for security products to keep him safe at home. He ended up in hospital as a direct result of this and still they wouldn’t fund it. “While they’re mucking around he’s already got out once and I was woken by half a dozen phone calls, including the police who had my naked son in their care. “Every night I have to barricade the door with all sorts of stuff just to put him off trying or that maybe I might hear him trying to leave.” Highton pensioner and mentalillness victim Rita Cebergs said the NDIS bureaucracy cut her taxi services, funding for education courses, cleaning assistance and respite. “My experience with NDIS has made me so angry I could spit. “I went to the NDIS, had a one-anda-half-hour meeting and all I got was a support worker who comes once week. “The Disability Support Fund that all people on disability pension could go to for money for a paper or a gym membership or to go to school is gone.

ALCOA and AGL Energy have accused Surf Coast Air Action of misrepresenting them on Anglesea’s coal-mine power station. They were responding to a group media release headlined ‘AGL rules out buying Anglesea power station’, claiming the company blamed “negative effects� on residents’ health and wellbeing for its lack of interest in the facility. The group based the release on a letter from AGL Energy managing director Michael Fraser in response to a request for information on whether the company might buy the power station. Mr Fraser’s letter said AGL was “mindful of effects on local communities from any investment decisions we make. “Matters of the type raised in your letter would certainly be taken into account before we decided

local residents are made in a general sense and are consistent with Alcoa’s views.� Ms Holgate said the power station was “a very efficient and well-maintained facility� that underwent a major overhaul every four years, most recently in 2013. “It’s one of the lowest greenhouse-gas-emitting coal-fired power stations in the state. “We believe it may be an attractive asset for an organisation that wants to run it as a standalone facility. “There has been general interest from prospective buyers and we’re working through the formal process of offering the facility for sale as quickly as possible.� Australian Workers Union attacked the action group last week for undermining the livelihood of 80 workers at the power station.

to make an investment,� he wrote. “We would only commit to buying an asset if we were satisfied that it could be operated safely and reliably and without compromising the health and wellbeing of employees and local residents.� AGL Energy and Alcoa said Surf Coast Air Action used the letter incorrectly. AGL’s Kathryn Lamond said the media release was “misleading� because the company “didn’t give a reason�. Alcoa’s Nichola Holgate said the group was wrong to cite “negative effects� on residents’ health and wellbeing for AGL’s lack of interest in buying the facility. “In fact, no reason is given. “The comments about only committing to buying an asset if they were satisfied that it could be operated safely and reliably and without compromising the health and wellbeing of employees and

A PAIR of 1950s Holdens battle it out on the treacherous Great Ocean Road, the precipitous drop looming as the desperate drivers seek an advantage as they race to Geelong. This is the scenario that backers of a film proposal hope to reproduce if they can garner enough local support - $9 million of it, in fact. Producer Bobby Galinsky brought a little Hollywood razzle dazzle to town this week as he spruiked the benefits of basing a $42 million film production in the region. His proposed movie, Dust and Glory, is the story of a fictitious fourth Redex Trial climaxing in Geelong after a round-Australia race featuring skulduggery, sabotage and ingenuity keeping cars on the road. The proposal arrives as local producers Gavan O’Connor and John McGlynn cast their children’s feature, The Chickabees, starring Paul Mercurio. The pair sought out Mr Galinsky for advice as they ramped up their local production. Hosting a number of productions would create in the reigon an “ecosystem� of film produc-

Telstra getting up to speed in north

Expert on house prices:

City trends up

By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN MORE than 500 northern suburbs residents will enjoy improved internet speeds after Telstra upgraded its North Geelong exchange. The northern upgrades follow similar upgrades to the Belmont exchange. The Independent has recently reported on a number of broadband blackspots and unavailability of connection for customers including businesses. Telstra Country Wide area general manager Duane Dalton said an extra 200 ports were installed earlier this year. The speed boost of up to 200 megabits a second would also assist around 150 businesses in the northern suburbs, he said. “We’re aware that some of our customers in North Geelong have had issues receiving a fast fixed broadband service or had

UP TO SPEED: Duane Dalton and Telstra Geelong licensee Ross Markins Picture: Reg Ryan at the company’s Belmont exchange. 121535 inconsistencies with their speed at home or at work. We have lots of activities around schools and sporting clubs so we are happy to announce these upgrades in order to meet the demand the area generates.

“We’re committed to ensuring North Geelong locals have the best internet experience possible. We’re confident that this infrastructure will help meet customer’s demand and expectations.”

GEELONG is set to buck the trend of languishing property values despite looming manufacturing job losses, a property research expert predicts. Knight Frank research director Richard Jenkins said population growth would underline Geelong’s continued property market strength. Property values in the nation’s metropolitan markets have fallen two per cent, according to a May RP Data-Rismark index. Melbourne suffered the biggest drop, 3.6 per cent.

Mr Jenkins said Geelong might suffer a slight fall but expected values to hold up over the long term. “Population growth is such that Victoria is the number-one state and that will feed through to the property market and Geelong will feed off that as well,” he said.

“While we can’t expect prices to continue up as in recent years, I expect values will hold up.” Mr Jenkins said the May figures were “more of an aberration than a continued fall”. Geelong faced its own challenges from manufacturing clo-

sures affecting sentiment, he said. “That will impact the market to some degree but the trend of people relocating to Geelong for relocation and affordability is still strong. “Geelong is still an attractive option and the medium term will still be positive.” Mr Jenkins said the local economy could also receive a boost as significant payouts to retrenched workers flowed through to the market. “People will have a nest egg that will allow them to upgrade their dwelling because property is an easy investment for people.”

SCREEN SAVER: Cancer victim Misty Wells with husband Shaun.

Mum of six on screens:

My cancer a warning to women By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN GEELONG mum of six Misty Wells is pretty blunt these days. “I tell my family and friends directly to stop procrastinating and go and have a Pap test,” Ms Wells said. “I tell them exactly what happened to me and tell them straight out to stop being so complacent.” She knows exactly what she’s talking about. Ms Wells said her final 12-week chemotherapy round was “knocking me around a bit”. “A Pap test only takes two minutes. That’s nothing compared to what I’ve been through. “There was always something else that I had to do, like picking the kids up from school or taking them to footy training, and, to be honest, there was always something else I’d rather be doing than having a Pap test.” The 37-year-old said she finally made an appointment with her GP after experiencing abnormal bleeding in December. Her first Pap test in seven years returned a shocking result, showing cell changes indicating cancer.

“I was referred to a gynaecologist, then I was sent to the Geelong Hospital, then to the Royal Women’s Hospital in Melbourne and then to Peter Mac. The news just kept getting worse. “I was told that the cancer was too big to operate, so I’ve had six weeks of radiation, five weeks of chemo, then four weeks of another type of internal radiation called brachytherapy.” In hindsight, Ms Wells wished she had sought a Pap test sooner. “It’s been such a shock because I’m still young. At this age cancer was always something that happens to someone who knows someone - it was never this close to home. “I’m silly for leaving it so long. But if nothing else, I’m glad my experience has made other women go and have the test when they were due.” Ms Wells is supporting a $65,000 cervical cancer prevention initiative in Geelong’s northern suburbs to increase the number of women undergoing screening and secondary school students receiving the HPV vaccine. PapScreen Victoria, Cancer Council Victoria and local health services are coordinating the project to improve access to cervical screening.

Stolen car in petrol theft A MAN who allegedly filled a stolen car with petrol then drove away from a Norlane service station without paying has police on his tail. Police released an image of a man with the gold-coloured Subaru station wagon, which disappeared from a Bell Park property on 7 May before reappearing three days later in security video at the Princes Hwy service station. Police described the man as eastern European in appearance, 25 to 35 years old and unshaven. He was wearing a black cap, a grey hoodie, tracksuit pants and thongs.

Young pianist stars at talent quest A PIANIST barely into his teens has won the region’s premier talent quest for young musicians. Highton’s Kelvin Liu won the instrument category at Star Search before judges also handed him the overall winner’s award. A spokesperson said the 14-year-old demonstrated “amazing talent at the keyboard”. The night’s other big winner was Breakwater 16-year-old Jye Cannon, who won the vocal category. Liu won $1300 in prize money for his two titles, while Cannon took home $1000. A field of 14 entrants competed in front of a capacity audience at Sacred Heart College’s McAuley Hall last Friday night. The entrants played as soloists and groups, covering a variety of musical styles. Rotary Club of Highton stages Star Search each year as a performance opportunity for the region’s emerging musical talent. The Independent is a sponsor of Star Search.

May’s dry days A DISAPPOINTING month for rain delivered the Geelong region only half to three-quarters of its normal total for May. The latest 30-year average for May rain in Geelong is 41.5mm but last month we only received around 30mm. Even the usually-wet Otway towns from Beech Forest to Lavers Hill only recorded 75 to 80 per cent of their normal falls. The Moorabool catchment and Golden Plains were even less fortunate with below half the average. Despite all this, the region’s water storages still finished the month at a healthy 70 per cent of capacity. Autumn’s rain overall was al-

most identical to the most recent 30-year average of 109mm. This year’s autumn total for the Geelong urban area was 108mm, owing to well-above average rain in April. In the past 30 years autumn rain has been declining but this year bucked the trend. The month also posted a temperature record with 10 consecutive days over 20C from 13 to 22

May. The previous record was nine days in 1904. The new record was the result of a large blocking high pressure system parked over the New South Wales coast, which diverted several rain-bearing fronts and low-pressure systems southward toward Tasmania. Only two other May days were over 20C. With an average daily maximum of 19C and a minimum of 9.2C, Geelong was around 1.5C warmer than its May 30-year mean of 12.6C. The warmest day reached 25.3C on 16 May and the lowest maximum was 14.3C on 7 May. The lowest minimum was 2C on 8 May.

BOUQUETS to council workers for their forward thinking at Hurst Reserve and Nelson Oval on 14 May. I parked in the reserve to attend a function but returned to find the gate closed. On closer inspection I found they had only slipped the bolt instead of locking the gate. BJB, Geelong West

BOUQUETS to Bob Treseder, of IBM Typewriter Service and Repairs, for his assistance and advice when getting my electric typewriter going again. His refusal of payment in this age of greed was a breath of fresh air. Susan, Ocean Grove

BUCKETS to the unemployment system. A hotel sacked me when my subsidy ran out after eight months. This is why the unemployment rate is so high. The system needs to change. BP, Newtown

BOUQUETS to Leisurelink forecourt patrons for returning a roller walker chair from the disability parking zone on 27 May. Swimmer and chair are together again. Bouquets also to the staff for their cooperation. Happy Mermaid, Geelong West

Pat, Hamlyn Heights BOUQUETS to the lovely workers at Market Square Shopping Centre’s car park, especially brilliant Brad whose friendly greeting and kind words make our day. It’s a pleasure to see Brad. P, J and G, Belmont

BUCKETS to Geelong’s council for failing to include in its community update the closing time for the small electrical appliance drop-off day. We drove all the way to Drysdale at 3.45pm to find it had finished. Stop wasting our time and petrol, which damages the environment as well. Frustrated Citizen, Belmont BUCKETS to a hairdresser that still had my hair extensions when it closed down. Disgusted Customer, Hamlyn Heights

Prize for each category is $1000: $750 donated to winner’s nominated organisation and $250 to the winner

If you know someone who deserves recognition for their service as a volunteer, nominate them for a Volunteer of the Year Award.

Buckets to the low-life who ran into my son’s car parked outside our house in the early hours of 20 May. Not only has his car been un-driveable since, he has to pay for the damage because no contact details were left behind. We hope karma bites you. Not Happy Jan, Marshall

Call to keep ‘most’ crims out of jail MOST criminals should “rarely go to jail”, according to a Geelong academic. Professor Mirko Bagaric said jail should be reserved for “the most-serious criminals”, such as rapists and murderers, to save money. The savings could then be spent on health and education, he said.

Prof Bagaric’s call for an overhaul of Australian sentencing laws was published in an American civil rights journal. “Australia’s justice system should aim to reduce crime, punish criminals appropriately, minimise the cost of the system and ensure (it) does not violate important moral prescriptions,” he wrote.

Letters LAST week’s Independent story headlined ‘Residents fight plans for Lara pesticide plant’ quoted City Hall planning and tourism general manager Peter Bettess saying zoning made Accensi’s site exempt from objection and appeal rights. What contempt for residents - we weren’t informed until after the plant was approved but now we can’t object. What happened to community consultation? At a council meeting Mr Bettess said WorkSafe had advised council that health and safety risks from potential major incidents at the plant would not impact the community. Ask the people of New Plymouth, New Zealand, whether the two major explosions at the Dow pesticide plant, which released toxic clouds over the surrounding region, didn’t impact the local community. At the same meeting I asked how Accensi proposed to safely and permanently dispose of toxic byproducts and waste. Mr Bettess said Worksafe and the EPA would monitor the safe handling of chemicals on the site. EPA and WorkSafe staff subsequently said either they knew nothing about this or supplied me with incorrect information about the site. Who will monitor the “safe handling of chemicals?” How can one have confidence in council’s decisions when they have no transparency? How can one establish the truth when each party says it’s not their responsibility but, rest assured, someone else will take care of it? I still want to know how and where the toxic byproducts and waste will be disposed. Maria French Lara

MP overlooks Ryrie St IN RESPONSE to MP Ian Trezise’s concerns about the impact of additional trucks on McKillop St (Independent, 30 May), what are his concerns for those living and working on Ryrie St? Obviously he doesn’t live on Ryrie St. What are the state MP’s suggestions and commitments on the community issue of trucks in central Geelong then? Ryrie St is way busier than McKillop St with trucks and increased traffic yet Ryrie St has as many if not more residents, shops, workers, cafes, a cinema, hospitals and schools. Ryrie St has all the bustle of city life but with

NDIS weaselling way out of responsibilities WHAT weasel words we get from bureaucrats to cover their inadequacies. In last week’s Independent account of how Rob Goodman, a sufferer of MS, lost disability services under the NDIS program, an NDIA spokesperson was quoted saying the agency “welcomes feedback” from NDIS trial participants and “we are keen to engage with them and learn from their experiences”. I doubt Ms Goodman is interested in NDIA’s learning experience. What she wants is the restoration of care that

she found suited her needs but which NDIS replaced with a bracket of irrelevant services of its own choosing. One size won’t fit all; every disability is different. The NDIS trial seems to have failed its first test, to know that the disabled person is best able to assess their own needs. All NDIS has to do is to meet those needs with a modicum of common sense and care. Tim Saclier Leopold

big trucks driving a wedge between the community. I encourage Ryrie St’s residents and workers to have their say on the trial. Please consider also the online Ryrie St truck petition. Unfortunately, the numbers are low, so I ask whether the community is complacent or just doesn’t care anymore? SE Dudley Geelong

Do-gooders stop circuses IN RESPONSE to Brian Porter’s letter in last week’s Independent, anyone booking a designated circus site in City of Greater Geelong is directed to the events department, which advises that sites are unavailable. A single staff member directs the department to give this advice. The staff member wrote to me earlier this year, saying council’s position hadn’t changed since a letter he wrote a few years ago. I dug it out and it offered two sites, one of which was totally unsuitable, so I applied for the other. The department said it would get back to me after Easter but didn’t say which year. I have asked several times in recent years how a site became designated but have never had a reply. The issue of “performing exotic and domestic animals” in circuses raises horrible things circuses do to animals plus horrific videos from overseas but

JOKER JOE CLEANS UP HIS ACT P17

NDIS left me helpless MS victim’s nightmare of red tape By NOEL MURPHY GROVEDALE MS sufferer Rob Goodman thought the new National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS) would at least preserve the services and assistance she was already receiving. But its red tape jungle removed the support, leaving her distressed, depressed and fearful for her future. “I have no family, partner or carer support but was fortunate to begin receiving support from a state-funded agency here in Geelong in 2002,” Ms Goodman told the Independent. “I was very well cared for and felt a sense of security, which I naively thought would continue until the NDIS trial was set up in Geelong.” Ms Goodman said she lost the support after a raft of meetings to develop an NDIS personal plan left her exhausted and anxious. “I was barely able to comprehend the extent to which my services had been slashed.” Ms Goodman has lost services included respite, massage therapy, gym and swimming pool memberships, household assistance, access to carers, three free meals a week and internet connection for communication with health providers. “But under the NDIS I now receive eight taxi trips a year, even though I’m still able to drive, as well as some help with gardening, an extra hour of home help per fortnight, which I currently don’t require, and three pre-prepared meals a week at a cost of $6, subsidised by NDIS.” Ms Goodman argued “many logical and well-thought-out reasons” against the changes but received a “standard reply” that many of her previous services were outside NDIS guidelines.

REVEALED: Last week’s front page.

when these incidents are investigated they appear to be set-ups by do-gooders and people paid big dollars. In a recent court action Ringling Bros Circus won a multi-million-dollar settlement against the Humane Society, America’s RSPCA equivalent. Surf Coast’s council has banned circuses with caged wild animals on the proposal of a councillor who is an RSPCA director. I understand that some people don’t like performing animals in circuses but why stop people who want to take their children to good, clean, family entertainment that has never been censored. Councillors need to seek out all the facts before debating this issue. Raymond Deller East Geelong

Don’t let them eat cake MICHAEL Gamble’s lecture in last week’s Independent would have been more compelling if he’d directed his myopic opinion on old-age pensioners at the large percentage having their cake and eating it too. I refer to pensioners loaded with money, houses and inherited wealth yet receiving taxpayer-funded pensions and benefits. They receive the pension fortnightly, reduced due to their bank balances, wealth et cetera. All other benefits they, like Mr Gamble and I, enjoy.

Email: editorial@geelongindependent.com.au PO Box 407, Geelong, 3220 Fax: 5249 6799

Is he one of those having their cake and eating it too? If yes, his social myopia could be cured by observing, interacting and developing an informed understanding of Australian old-aged-pensioner life. Many of them are forced to sell their homes, are usually widowed or a widower and unable to upkeep their home or pay its bills et cetera. They are forced to rent, unable to work and watch their bank balances dwindle. Unable to afford private health insurance, they wait long for operations. Many old-age pensioners live fortnight to fortnight, in need of their next payment. They don’t travel overseas or purchase in abundance. The cake-eaters are in clover and loving it. Many express their views on we garden-variety pensioners. Do their views duplicate Mr Gamble’s? G Dale Corio

City’s toilets stink OUR COUNCILLORS, who seem to delight in spending money on unwanted and costly projects, should take heed. At every turn we hear of a million here, many millions there and a $500,000 Christmas tree. I’m not against Christmas trees but could we not perhaps spend even one little million on upgrading many of the dunnies around Geelong. I will not flatter them by calling them toilets because some are the next step on from a long-drop. Specifically I mention the one in Barrabool Rd, near one of the largest children’s and adults’ play areas in Geelong. This one even has a warning sign regarding the presence of dangerous substances. The other in Barrabool Rd I can’t comment on as it is a renowned meeting place for dubious activities. Others of low standard are at Belmont shopping centre near the library, in Johnstone Park near the library and in a car park at West Geelong. Other readers might be able to add to the list. I have travelled extensively in Australia and our toilets are among the worst. People will remember a place more for inadequate facilities than a giant Christmas tree. Maybe the next council junket could be to the public toilets or, even better, call in a consultant for advice. Bob Dalton Breakwater

See Angels’ faces again By SAM BRIMACOMBE RICK Brewster is adamant The Angels will continue rocking after four decades on the Australian music scene. “We’re looking forward to getting out there and doing what we’ve always done,” the veteran lead guitarist told the Independent. “It’s just another year for us; we’ve never stopped.” Formed in the early 1970s as The Keystone Angels, the classic Australian rock act had hits with songs such as After the Rain, You Got Me Runnin’, Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again and Coming Down. The band is coming to Geelong as part of its third Australian tour this year after two in January and March to support 2014 album Talk The Talk. Brewster said the new three-month circuit would celebrate the band’s 40th anniversary and subsequent twodisc release of studio tracks and live recordings. “The anniversary album spans our whole history, from our first single, Am I Ever Gonna See Your Face Again, in 1974 right through to the current band and recent songs that we’ve released,” he said. Brewster said the band had retained its original sound despite the absence of former lead singer Doc Neeson, who died this week after the Independent spoke to Brewster.

VETERANS: The Angels, with singer Dave Gleeson, rock back to Geelong in July.

He was keen to move forward with the refreshed new line-up, he said. New singer Dave Gleeson is no stranger to The Angels after his previous band, The Screaming Jets, supported the group on many tours through the 1980s and 1990s. Brewster said Gleeson had now

completed two studio albums and several tours with The Angels with great success, so the music was the same as ever. “We continued with The Angels while Doc did his solo thing.” Unwavering in his devotion to the band, Brewster said The Angles had

no plans to quit, with a new album potentially in the works. “We’ve got no intention of stopping. Next thing for us will be working on a new album - a couple of the guys are already writing songs.” The Angels appear at Corio’s Gateway Hotel on 11 July.

Man Manx music By SAM BRIMACOMBE AN award-winning trio from Isle of Man brings its big band-sound to this weekend’s National Celtic Festival at Portarlington. Barrule comprises guitarist Adam Rhodes, 19-year-old fiddler Tomas Callister and accordion player Jamie Smith. Rhodes said they played a contemporary version of their island’s Manx music, which he described as similar to traditional Celtic tunes. He believed the festival would be the first time Australian audiences had heard Manx music live. Rhodes said Barrule would play songs from its self-titled album, which won best debut record at Belgium’s 2014 Spiral Earth Awards. “We’ve travelled around the UK and Europe and Belgium seems to come up quite a lot,” he laughed. “But we’ve never been to Australia, so we’re really looking forward to it.” Rhodes said few musicians made a living out of Manx music, so he was excited to bring the sound to a new country. “Manx music doesn’t seem to travel often,” Adam said. “It’s a privilege to be able to show it off.” Rhodes described the band’s sound as traditional Celtic music with a modern twist and contemporary chord structures to “keep it interesting”.

SISTER ACT: The sisters of Stonefield

Talent granted By SAM BRIMACOMBE EARLY-BIRD tickets have gone on sale for November’s Queenscliffe Music Festival. Festival director Andrew Orvis said this year’s line-up would be released at the end of June but fans had an earlier opportunity to see two headliners when Melbourne 11-piece “Bollywood surf band” Bombay Royale and all-sister rock group Stonefield played an Emerging Artist Grant Fundraiser in June. The event acts as a sneekpeek for the festival while raising money for grants for emerging local artists at the festival. The grant, now in its fourth year,

is distributed depending on artistic merit and potential. The money helps artists pay for costs such as recording time, new equipment, management and marketing. Orvis said up to $10,000 would be available to give promising acts a push into the music business. “It’s tough out there for any kind of artist to fund projects, so to be able to give people a kick start we’re really proud of that and we’re really glad we can do that for local acts. “It’s part of the festival culture. We’ll continue to harbour the fantastic local talent we have.”

Orvis was proud of the festival’s success stories, he said. “And not just the ones that we fund. Locally there are lots of bands doing lots of great things, they’re playing gigs and getting played on radio, so they’re doing really great stuff.” Three acts won grants last year, including ground-breaking singer Yirrimal and 30-piece girl group Sweethearts, both of which will appear alongside Stonefield and Bombay Royale. The fundraiser will be at Point Londesdale School Hall on 14 June. Grant applications are available on the festival website.

Men have plenty of reasons to smile at Belmont’s Kalkee Social Club.

Men’s business in Kalkee club BILL resisted his family’s suggestion to join Kalkee Social Club’s Men’s Group. “I didn’t like the idea,â€? he says, “it sounded like crèche for pensioners to me but it’s not like that at all. I’ve met a great bunch of blokes and now it’s my favourite part of the week.â€? Franco tentatively joined the group after recently moving to Belmont to be close to family after his wife died. “It took me a while to attend

that first time and now I’m really glad I did,� Franco says. “Having a yarn with other blokes in my situation has made a big difference.� Both men are among the members who have made the Thursday morning group so popular that Kalkee is now offering a Tuesday afternoon group as well. Members can attend both sessions if they wish. The men come together to enjoy a cuppa, fellowship and

a range of activities like cards, quizzes and reminiscences. Kalkee Social Club is supported by financial assistance from the Commonwealth and Victorian governments through the Home and Community Care program.

Connecting people and communities

HEARING Aid Specialists Geelong has been a family-owned practice since 1991 but has operated on the same central city site in Yarra St since 1989. Locally owned, operated and staffed, the business takes great pride in helping people achieve their full hearing potential. Over the years hearing devices have become more advanced and able to provide wearers with better outcomes in a variety of listening situations. Along with the advancement in technology comes the need to accurately assess the performance of the hearing devices. Hearing Aid Specialists Geelong’s Marcel Timmers likens it to buying a sports car but then having it tuned by someone who either doesn’t have the right equipment or the experience to extract the correct performance. “It’s very important the devices are calibrated to the individual’s hearing loss accurately and also takes into account the individual’s needs,” he advises. Hearing Aid Specialists Geelong takes the time to understand clients’ needs and works with them to ensure that devices are not only tuned to their hearing loss but also strive to help them

MANY years ago funerals were held in the parlour of someone’s home and everyone attending the service would wear black. Today funerals have become more of a public event bringing together a mixture of memories, colours and reflections to personalise the celebration of life. The past few years have brought a large increase in advertising for funeral insurance products as more Australians begin planning their own funerals. Anyone considering some form of funeral planning product should remember the importance of conducting research because some insurance plans can end up costing more in premiums than the value of the cover. The staff at Tuckers Funeral & Bereavement Service can explain more-cost-effective options, such as funeral bonds and pre-paid funeral contracts.

X-rays aiding dental health

NORLANE Dental Surgery uses the latest dental X-ray technology to assist patients. Dental X-ray examinations can provide important information about oral health. They are used to create images called radiographs, which dentists use to inspect the bones and roots of the teeth, un-erupted teeth and areas where teeth touch each another. X-rays can also reveal conditions and issues such as: small areas of decay in the teeth and below fillings; bone diseases; abscesses or cysts’ signs of gum disease; developmental and other

defects; some types of tumors; signs of trauma; signs of systemic illnesses; and positions of tooth roots and jaw bones Dentists use several types of dental radiographs. Bitewing radiographs show several upper and lower teeth from one side of the mouth on one small image. Periapical radiographs show several teeth and their roots and the jawbone in a certain area of the mouth. A complete series of bitewing and periapical radiographs show all the teeth, roots and related ar-

eas of the jaws. Panoramic radiographs show all the upper and lower teeth, large portions of the jaws and other structures on one large image. This type of X-ray does not require film to be put inside the mouth but also does not provide as much detail as smaller images Each types of image can be obtained digitally. The electronic image can be saved to a computer so the dentist can view it on the screen and store it in the patient’s computer file. Norlane Dental Surgery has the latest digital X-rays machines and OPG X-ray technology.

Healthy Skin Matters

Pakington Dental Care’s Sam, Jodie, Ed, Pauline and Barb.

PAKINGTON Dental Care has established itself as one of the city’s leaders in oral health services after celebrating its first anniversary in December. Located near the corner of Pakington and Aberdeen Sts, Newtown, opposite St John’s Primary School, the practice’s quality staff and convenient location are winning plenty of new patients. Experienced dentists Dr Jodie Eales and Dr Ed Houghton oversee Pakington Dental Care with the support of staff members Barb, Pauline and Sam. Ed and Jodie have worked to-

gether cohesively with their staff to deliver a professional, friendly and streamlined service. As Jodie and Ed both have young families, they particularly enjoy treating children and providing them with a happy and positive dental experience. Together they have a preventive approach to dental care, encouraging children to attend from a young age and to continue having regular check-ups. The family-friendly dental practice offers a welcoming and relaxed environment. Available services include

general, paediatric, preventative and cosmetic dentistry, including teeth-whitening, as well as implants, crowns, veneers and dentures. Pakington Dental Care is open six days a week but Jodie and Ed also offer after-hours appointments Tuesday and Wednesday evenings to accommodate for emergencies or patients needing greater flexibility with appointment times. The team at Pakington Dental Care extends a warm invitation for new patients to experience the high levels of service available at the Newtown practice.

NEW WORKSHOP An Independent Advertising Feature

MOTORCYCLE Service Centre in Moolap is a family-owned-and-operated business situated less than five minutes from central Geelong. Rob Jenner, a fully-qualified mechanic for 30 years, has extensive knowledge and practical experience across all makes and models from Japan, Europe, Britain and the USA. “I’ve owned and ridden everything from Hondas to Harleys and we’ve raced Ducatis, Yamahas, Aprilias - I’ve even turned an MV Agusta upsidedown a few times!” Rob suffered a serious road-racing crash in August, temporarily closing his Motorcycle Service Centre for the first time in 15 years. “That’s racing,” Rob explains laconically. “It was pretty nasty but could have been far worse. The important thing is that I’m now pretty much 100 per cent recovered and again able to concentrate solely on our customers and their bikes.” Motorcycle Service Centre is well-known for its personal service and customer satisfaction. “I like to be able to discuss directly with the customer exactly what they want, especially on bigger jobs like serious repairs or high-performance modifications,” Rob explains. “There’s no confusion with a one-on-one discussion.” With many years as a VicRoads Licenced Vehicle Tester, Rob is among the regions most experienced and respected mechanics. “I like to think I’m reasonably fair as far as roadworthy inspections go but not a pushover,” he grins. For all motorcycle needs including roadworthies, log-book service and general service and repair for all makes and models, Motorcycle Service Centre provides professional and personalised service. Conveniently located and with private, secure parking at 336 Portarlington Rd, Moolap, Motorcycle Service centre’s business hours are 9am to 5pm Monday to Friday and Saturday by prior appointment, phone 0488 247 077.

LOW-IMPACT collisions typical in shopping centre car parks are annoying to say the least. Add to this the fact that people rarely own up to damaging other people’s cars. It has been noticed that drivers are often scared to back-up any further due to very limited vision. These are the occasions where reverse sensors are very welcome. Bumper Master fits reversing sensors to help customers overcome fears of backing into objects or even pedestrians. Reversing sensors help prevent damage to owners’ cars as well as the vehicles of neighbours and other motorists. They can also help when backing out of tight garages and past narrow gateposts. Bumper Master can also help owners improve the appearance of bumpers when selling vehicles. Bumpers are the first part of any car to incur damage – and first impressions are important when trying to sell. All Bumper Master repairs come with a no-questions-asked warranty to give customers peace of mind. Best of all, most bumper repairs are done for less than the cost of insurance excesses. Located behind VicRoads at 3 Dowsett St, South Geelong, Bumper Master has proven experience in providing an alternative repair service to the bumper regions of any car. Owners wanting to improve the resale value of their cars should phone Bumper Master on 5221 0138.

Illegal irewood cutting is unsustainable, destroys habitat and poses public safety risks. The Department of Environment and Primary Industries (DEPI) licences commercial irewood suppliers who collect irewood safely, sustainably and legally. Before you purchase irewood, ask whether the seller either has a commercial irewood licence or has otherwise sourced the irewood legally. If they don’t have a licence or refuse to answer, report it to the number below. You can anonymously report suspicious activity, including anyone you see felling or harvesting a tree outside irewood collection areas, to the DEPI Customer Service Centre on 136 186 (quote Operation Trident). www.depi.vic.gov.au Customer Service Centre 136 186

IndySport Cats seek redemption

On the

bite

Chris Pitman

By JOHN VAN KLAVEREN

Anglers get fresh on trout, reddies

GEELONG will be out to prove to the Chicken Littles of the football world that the sky is still up where it belongs whether the Etihad Stadium roof is open or closed. Carlton will most likely seek similar redemption after its embarrassing loss to cellar dweller Brisbane. This Friday night’s clash of the two last-round losers will shed some light on how the respective clubs respond to embarrassment and humiliation. Backline general Corey Enright is expected to return, marshalling the defensive troops

FRESHWATER fishing dominated local angling action over the past week. Steve Prior drifted out mudeye under a float at Wurdee Boluc Reservoir on Saturday morning, catching a rainbow trout of 1.5kg. Other anglers fishing the reservoir caught redfin from 800g to 1.5kg on Fish Arrow soft plastics among the weed beds. Lake Wendouree produced rainbow trout on Powerbait. Plenty of fish were around 1.5kg, with bait working better than lures. Roy Cusani headed out of town to Howqua Inlet where he found near-perfect conditions. He trolled Strike Pro Bob N Spoons, soon catching an outstanding yellowbelly of 5kg. Adam Van Der Lught ventured to Lake Eucumbene in search of monster brown trout preparing for their annual spawning run. He caught numerous large fish early on a glowbug pattern fly before changing to nymphs and hard body lures to land numerous trout averaging 3kg. Lake Bullen Merri again produced Chinook salmon to 1.5kg at first light on bluebait fished deep or trolled Daiwa Double Clutch lures. Jason Lane and Duane Tribe fished next door at Lake Purrumbete where they soon boated a nicely coloured brown trout of 1.5kg on a deep-diving lure. Jason caught two browns, five Chinook salmon and three redfin for the day, while Duane landed a 1.5kg trout on mudeye fished among the weed beds. The Barwon River estuary was a standout for saltwater angling. Hugh Robinson and son Max, 4, had no trouble landing small Australian Salmon. They also caught a 30cm tailor, which young Max took home for a feed. Squid and whiting were caught in reasonable numbers off St Leonards, particularly just out from the boat ramp near the extensive weed beds. Surf anglers caught salmon and gummy sharks on beaches such as Jan Juc. Bluebait and pilchard fillets did all the damage. Anglers casting small 25g lures in pilchard colours caught salmon to 2kg. Apollo Bay hosted large schools of 10kg to 30kg southern bluefin tuna feeding on the surface. The fish were finicky but casting 40g to 60g metal lures temped some. Anyone in search of a barrel should consider Apollo Bay, which has produced tuna over 100kg recently.

and hoping to draw on their desire for vindication to get back on the winners list. “It’s how we respond and how we train and I’m pretty sure the guys that took the field will be pretty filthy and pretty keen to get back to playing some good footy on Friday night,” Enright said. The Cats will hope to reserve the revenge mantra don’t get angry, get even - for another date with Sydney during the finals when it will count a lot more. Helping the cause is the binary return of senior defender Tom Lonergan who suffered

concussion during the Cats win against the Roos. Lonergan admits he wasn’t in any fit state to go to Sydney, suffering side-effects such as feeling scattered and blurred vision, training at 10 to 15 per cent off reduced capacity. The imminent return of another litter of injured Cats also bodes well for the second half of the season, including Allen Christensen and Josh Caddy. Like the recently-returned Steven Motlop, both will need a couple of weeks to get up to speed, helped by playing a few home games and avoiding most of the top sides.

Despite a horror re-introduction to AFL, Billie Smedts will be all the better for the run. Geelong’s cause will also be helped by the evenness of the season, with a gap of just two games between second and 10th. The stability offered by resigning veteran James Kelly for 2015 will help also. The 30 year-old had been set to become an unrestricted free agent at the end of this season. Enright’s name was still on the AFL’s updated list of 2014 free agents released this week but it’s hard to imagine him anywhere else.

BETTER: Billie Smedts.

Warriors set to take on ‘sister’ NPL club with a new coach By JOSIP ZILIC

CONTROVERSIAL: Reardo Luka appears to be tripped during last week’s loss.

PIcture: IVAN DUDANGZIC

NORTH Geelong has a new coach, former St Albans player and coach, Micky Colina. Colina replaces Ante Skoko, who decided to step down this week, along with assistant Ivan Skoko. President Ivi Deak said the pair were appointed interim coaches after the club won its NPL licence anbd applauded the foundation the set for the club. The side suffered a cruel blow when a mistake cost it a 0-1 loss to Moreland Zebras in National Premier League on Saturday. The only goal was in the opening minutes when the Warriors defence failed to clear, allowing Moreland’s Nick Symeoy goal when his shot deflected into goal off the legs of Frano Saricin. The Warriors’ frustration of recent weeks reemerged, raising the ire of referee Perry Mur who rewarded Moreland with free kicks. Warriors forward Reardo Luka was tireless in his attack on the ball, almost drawing his side level on 25 minutes when he dribbled past several defenders only to shoot over the goal. Moreland defended in numbers, with Symeoy up front drawing the saves of Saric in a solid game. With minutes left in the half, in-form Luka worked a cross to find Mark Paleka only to draw a fine save from Alex Stojanovski. The Warriors pressed hard in the second half, breaking the defensive lines of the Zebras to earn a gilt-edged chance that went begging when Michael Boyar blasted high in the box. Robert Zadworny imposed himself with Luka to maintain ascendancy but chances went high or wide. The Warriors travel to St Albans this Sunday. Their hosts have had a good start to the season but could struggle to maintain momentum after losing three points for failing to field a junior side. The stage is set for a terrific challenge between the sister clubs, which share plenty of history.
