Human tragedy ASYLUM seeker figures confirm a “humanitarian” crisis is developing in Dandenong, according to Councillor Roz Blades. According to Department of Immigration and Border Control figures, the numbers of “illegal maritime arrivals on bridging E visas” living in Greater Dandenong surged to more than 2730 in June 2014 - up nine-fold from 310 in June 2012. As a suburb, Dandenong was home to a nation-high 1723 asylum seekers; the next most populous was Auburn in NSW with 1150. Among the top Victorian suburbs was secondplaced Doveton (407), Springvale (326), Noble Park (311) and Dandenong North (225). Cr Blades has been leading a multi-council campaign for the Federal Government to better support the many hardy but overwhelmed asylum seeker helpers. Many asylum-seekers depend on volunteers, charities and agencies for food, clothes and shelter. Many survive without
GIVE US A HAND work rights on meagre welfare benefits, which are pegged at 89 per cent of the dole, and suffer social isolation and boredom. “All the more reason for people to come with us on this,” she said about the statistics. “It’s a humanitarian issue now.” Cr Blades was awaiting other Victorian councils to adopt her campaign before leading a delegation to Canberra. Councillor Matthew Kirwan, a co-architect with Cr Blades on the council’s asylum seeker action plan, said the numbers had risen by 700 in the past six months despite fewer boat arrivals. He said it suggested that asylum seekers were attracted to Dandenong from other parts of Australia. As part of its Give Us A
Hand campaign, the Journal has been highlighting the efforts of over-worked volunteers and groups. Springvale Benevolent Society president Joe Rechichi last week said he was personally submitting for more federal funding. A shrewd financial manager of the society’s finances, Mr Rechichi said this was the first time he felt the society was struggling to cope with demand - including the wave of asylum seekers. “The dollar doesn’t go any further; the cost of living is higher.” AMES chief executive Cath Scarth said the migrant help agency – which is putting out a call for more volunteeer English tutors – had been coping with a growing clientele for a “period of time”. She said Dandenong was attractive because it had been welcoming people from “different walks of life” for decades. “It’s a successful community in that way, with a very sophisticated community sector. “For asylum seekers living on less income support, they need that additional support.”

Years make strong brew HUMOUR has played a big part in Springvale couple Sylvia and Jimmy Nolan celebrating 65 years of marriage. They wed on 15 October 1949 at St Peter’s Church in Wellington, New Zealand. Jimmy was 19 and Sylvia was 21. “We met at a dance in Wellington in 1948,” Sylvia said. “He was very cheeky. “He asked me if I’d like to go for a cup of coffee after the dance, and he reckons he’s still paying for it. “Most expensive cup of coffee he’s ever had!” Sylvia, 87, said her favourite thing about Jimmy, 85, was his sense of humour. “That’s what attracted me right from day one,” she said. Together they had six children - three boys and three girls - 15 grandchildren and six great-grandchildren. “They’re spotted all over the place and all different nationalities,” Sylvia said. “My granddaughter is getting married next month - she’s part Samoan and her fiance is from Columbia. “Another one got married last September - she’s part Croatian and he’s from Lebanon.” About 50 family members and friends gathered at the Hampton RSL on 12 October to celebrate Sylvia and Jimmy’s milestone. “One came from New Zealand and another came from interstate,” Sylvia said. “One son was missing - he had already booked a cruise.” Springvale Senior Citizens Club, where Sylvia’s been a

member for 15 years, threw a party on 14 October. Daughter Deborah Barbarich attended both celebrations. She said her dad was born in Pakistan, grew up in England and moved to New Zealand. “His father was in the British Army, that’s why he was born over there,” she said. “My dad was an only child. He ran away to sea when he was 14 and didn’t tell his parents where he was in the world. “After he had six kids his parents started looking for him. They put notices all over the world. “They tracked him down to New Zealand, sold their house in England and moved to New Zealand. “There was a big reunion.” Her mum was born in Wel-

lington to a Chinese father and Scottish mother. Deborah said her eldest brother moved to Australia in 1972. “The rest of us just followed,” she said. “Mum and dad came about 25 years ago.” “They settled in Springvale.” Jimmy suffered a stroke three years ago and now lives in an aged care facility a few minutes from their Springvale South home. “I go down most afternoons to visit, and on the weekends my daughter brings him home if she’s not working,” Sylvia said. “It was hard for someone who’s always been so active.” “He used to do all the cooking. I’ve had to knuckle down and do it myself!” - CASEY NEILL

By CASEY NEILL AHMET and Emina Vehabovic married after a week-long courtship when he was 23 - and she was just 15. On 18 October the Noble Park couple celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary. “We just understand each other, what can I tell you?” Emina said. “Sometimes we argue, but we love each other.” Serbian-born Emina’s Bosnian aunty set them up. “First she wrote a letter and said ‘I have one nice man who’s just finished the army and he would like to marry’ and asked my mum if she would let go to Bosnia to marry him,” she said. “My mum said no because I was the youngest.” A week later her aunty visited Serbia and asked Emina to return to Bosnia with her. “I said ‘yes, I want to go’. My mum worked, brother worked, sister worked and I was at home,” she said. “After one week, I married him.” They lived in Bosnia for six years before moving to Australia in July 1970. “When I came to Australia I brought $2 Australian from Yugoslavia,” Ahmet said. The plumber had dreamed
of moving to Australia for its beaches and nice weather. Emina wasn’t so keen. “I didn’t want to come. It’s too far. In Australia we had no relatives,” she said. “For two years I cried because I wanted to go back home. “It was very hard because we were both working in Yugoslavia. I worked at a charcoal grill. “We had everything, but when we came to Australia we had nothing. “He never got a job as a plumber. We got work in a factory. “We worked at Repco in Murrumbeena. We worked together there. “We changed factories from one to the other.” Emina said they couldn’t speak English and classes weren’t available. “The government didn’t look after us very well,” she said. “We worked very hard. I worked men’s jobs in factories.” They saved $3000 and bought a house in Noble Park, where they lived for 10 years. “After that we went to Bosnia. We didn’t have children or family,” she said. “We built a house and we stayed for eight years. When the war started we lost everything. “My husband was impris-
oned for two or three weeks. I knew nothing about him and I cried a lot because maybe they were killing him.” Emina was injured in a mortar attack. “It was a very hard time. I had shell in my eye and body,” she said. “I had an operation for cancer in my stomach from stress. “I’m alright now, touch the wood.” They fled Yugoslavia on a bus to Germany and returned to Australia in 1993. “We were working cleaning houses. We bought this unit in 1997,” she said. “Now we have everything. That is life. “Now we’re very happy. “We had hard times, but one should be water and one fire. “My husband is a little bit aggressive, but I’m a very quiet person.” They talk about their problems, and complete household chores together. “When he does the gardening I help him. When I clean the house he washes the windows,” she said. They celebrated their milestone at a Bosnian community celebration on 18 October. “We’ll go to Fiji or Malaysia for a holiday next month,” Emina said.

Risks raise a stink By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS CHINESE developers have been told to be cautious over their plans to develop a theme park within sniffing distance of a major sewage treatment plant. This month the Journal revealed Greater Dandenong Council was in talks with Chongqing Mexin (Group) Industry over a proposed theme park at 616 Frankston-Dandenong Road. The site is within the outer reaches of the Eastern Treatment Plant buffer area - an environmental significance overlay that limits “odoursensitive” development around the plant. Last week the Bangholme plant’s
acting manager Phil Pearmain said any development within the buffer must be “carefully considered” to ensure it didn’t impact on the plant’s services and that “public amenity and safety” was maintained. Nearby resident Alan Hood, who has stared down the council’s attempts to shrink Bangholme’s green wedge in the past, said the site, which was within the “severely flood-prone” Carrum Swamp, was unsuitable for development. He said the council had a duty of care to avoid subjecting “thousands of families with children” to the “unconscionable” risk of a chlorine accident at the plant. Mr Hood cited a Melbourne Water submission to a State Govern-
ment hearing last year, which stated the plant was a designated “major hazard facility” due to the “nature and quantity of the chemicals stored and used”. “There is potential for major incidents with off-site consequences to occur,” the submission stated. Mr Hood said the council “knew this type of development was impossible without moving the (treatment plant)”. Grant Hailes, managing director of development consultants Beveridge Williams, said the overlay had been considered with a “range of factors” prior to the land purchase in August. “It’s no doubt a factor. It’s just a
matter of managing our way through that.” He said “plenty of people” lived and worked in the buffer zone, including Willow Lodge residents and those at Bunurong Cemetery. “That’s as good a testament as any.” The buffer zone specifically excludes uses that require “the presence of a large number of people over an extended period of time”. A council spokeswoman said the council would not comment before any planning application was lodged. The plant treats sewage from more than 1.6 million people in Melbourne’s south-east.
High-speed chase ends in charges AN ENDEAVOUR Hills man has been charged over several alleged carjackings as part of a three-hour police chase from Dandenong to East Gippsland last Thursday. Jaye Richardson, 25, was charged with eight counts of armed robbery - with more charges expected to be laid. A 17-year-old Hampton Park girl, who was a passenger for part of the 270-kilometre chase, was charged with five counts of armed robbery. Police alleged Richardson wielded a firearm when detectives tried to execute a search warrant at a house in Rogers Street, Dandenong, at 10.30am. He allegedly drove off in an stolen white ute, and stole several other vehicles during a chase through Ferntree Gully, Pakenham, Warragul, Morwell, Yarragon, Moe, Newmans Creek and Bairndale. Richardson was arrested by Special Operations Group police at Swan Reach near Lakes Entrance.
DANDENONG Salvation Army is working hard to make sure thousands of kids wake up to toys on Christmas morning. Corps officer Captain Stuart McGifford said its community support service in Doveton was the distribution point for toys to Salvos centres across eastern Victoria. “Over the next three months, the normally quiet toy section will spring into life as more than 20,000 gifts are being prepared for delivery,” he said. “Youth groups, corporate groups and school groups
will be volunteering in the centre, ensuring the toys are packed and sorted for boys and girls and for different ages. “Regardless of people’s religious background, Christmas in Australia is an important time for families and we hope the provision of toys to families who are struggling will make Christmas a special time for everyone.” Donations of new toys, gift vouchers, non-perishable food or money for The Salvation Army’s Christmas work can be made at 1a Frawley Road, Doveton, or 55 James Street, Dandenong.

Watching out for your own NEIGHBOURHOOD Watch has been going for well over 30 years in many countries throughout the world. A community-based volunteer crime prevention and community safety organisation, we work alongside the police, council and Metro staff at many events thoughout the year handing out newsletters and talking to people about crime prevention. Its very strength is the fact that the volunteers who make up NHW Greater Dandenong live, socialise, shop, use public transport, have children or grandchildren who go to school, use civic facilities (such as libraries and parks) and or work in the City of Greater Dandenong. Therefore all the members of NHW Greater Dandenong have a very strong personal interest in having the safest community in which to reside. And like all volunteer groups, the folk who volunteer for NHW Greater Dandenong are in it because they want to be, their heart is in it and a volunteer will always “go above and beyond”. Our volunteers take pride in raising awareness about simple ways people can protect themselves, their property and neighbourhood from crime. One of the most common problems in Greater Dandenong is theft from unlocked cars.
COMMUNITY
VOICE
DAWN VERNON GREATER DANDENONG NEIGHBOURHOOD WATCH PRESIDENT
The message is simple - lock it or lose it. So many people leave their cars unlocked even in their own driveway. If you see anything suspicious in your neighbourhood ring and report it. It may be nothing but it’s better to be safe than sorry. In one instance I noticed four people in front of my house getting in and out of their car. They were talking on their mobile phones and looking up and down the street. I thought they were up to no good so I called triple zero and within minutes police arrived. It may be a car in your street that does not belong there, so always get the registration number. I nearly reported my neighbour’s friend that was staying with him for a while. LOL
My neighbours know now to let me know if any are going away and I will keep an eye on their houses. If someone is acting suspiciously in your neighbourhood get a good description of that person and, only if safe to do so, take a picture. NHW publishes five newsletters a year. You can find them in many shops, medical practices, clubs and places like the Drum Theatre, swimming pools and RSL and sports clubs. This way people who are interested in getting safety hints and news on events such as a public forums can pick up a copy. We ask that when you have finished with your newsletter you pass it on to others, this way we are getting the word out to more people. NHW also communicates via email. We have a database of more than 1000 email addresses as well. You can also receive the newsletter direct which is great for businesses and community groups who then print it and distribute it to employees and members. Every little bit helps us. We were given a grant from the Dandenong Council to have 3000 junior watch activity books printed. We gave every student a copy (Grade 3 and 4) in all 31 schools
in Greater Dandenong. Organisations are welcome to invite me to be a NHW guest speaker at their meetings. I love sharing my knowledge of many things I have learnt about travelling on a train when you feel in danger and other tips to keep yourself safe. For example, I see so many pedestrians wearing two ear plugs. For safety it’s much better to only use one when walking so you are aware of who may be following you. We hold four public forums a year, these are not boring nights but lots of fun and very informative. Our next guest speaker is radio station 3AW’s David Mann on 19 November at the Paddy O’Donoghue Centre, 18 Buckley Street, Noble Park, at 7.30pm. If you would like to improve the City of Greater Dandenong, to make it the best place to live, to help in crime reduction, to make our streets safe and make a difference to improving our neighbourhoods, then don’t just think about it or say “why don’t the police, or the council or the authorities do something” - join your neighbours in Neighbourhood Watch Greater Dandenong and make a difference.

LOOKING BACK 100 Years Ago THE WAR 29 October 2014 Patriotic News The Victorian State School Patriotic League, comprising the tens of thousands of school children of Victoria, are working most successfully on definite lines, to render monetary assistance to relief funds and to teach practically, something of the love and duty owed to the Empire by all Australian children as well as adults. Already thousands of girls are at work making shirts, scarves, nightingales, cholera-belts, etc, for use in hospital or at the front. Recently the Minister (Mr Livingston) and the Director of Education (Mr Tate) visited “A veritable warehouse of underclothing and
haberdashery” remarked Mr Tate. Both were touched and interested with the messages the children had sent on the garments. Cuffs and balaclava helmets had the name of the giver, and some message like “cheer up lads” or “Australia is watching you”, hospital shirts had messages like “I hope you will be better soon”. 50 Years Ago 21 October 1964 Dandenong Creek safety move “We don’t want any more tragedies in the creek,” said Cr T.P.

New abattoir cuts it By CASEY NEILL A REFURBISHED $30 million abattoir in Dandenong South will create almost 400 new jobs. Australian Meat Group managing director Gilbert Cabral said the Hammond Road premise had been closed since 2011. “We purchased the site earlier this year, formerly from Castricum Brothers who operated the site as a lamb operation,” he said. “We are refurbishing and converting it into a beef operation. “We are building a brand new cold store to handle all our export containers.” Premier Dennis Napthine announced the project last Thursday. He said it would provide processing facilities for the domestic and Asian export markets and create more than 230 jobs in its first years and more than 370 down the track. Mr Cabral said the State Government was contributing “modest assistance which will go towards training and induction” to the private project.
Australian Meat Group (AMG) is a newly-formed company. “We were formerly owners of a company called Tasman Meat Group,” Mr Cabral said. “We sold to a multinational. “After a period of non-competition, we’ve come back into the industry. “We’re a fresh new team but we’ve got extensive experience in the meat industry.” He said he’d been familiar with the Dandenong South site for a long time. “We’ve operated with Castricums before,” he said. “The Castricums constructed a very sound abattoir and it comes with all the licensing. “It makes it a lot easier for us to refurbish and operate.” Mr Cabral hopes the operation will be up and running early next year. In June last year, Castricum Food Service managing director Gary Castricum told the Journal that

The high Australian dollar hampering export opportunities, years of drought forcing up stock prices, the need to upgrade the 25-yearold facility and family retirements brought about the decision.
“It was difficult times for a while there,” Mr Castricum said. Castricums has been operating a retail outlet on the site since and will continue to do so through a lease arrangement with new owner AAD Recycling Services. “And we’ll be there for some time yet,” Mr Castricum said.
Overdose leads to trafficking charges A MAN found slumped behind the wheel of an allegedly stolen station wagon has been charged with drug trafficking. Majed Al-Dimachki, 29, of Hampton, had apparently suffered an overdose when he was found in the blue Nissan Pathfinder at the corner of South Gippsland Highway and Dandenong Bypass, Dandenong South, on 14 October at 5.30pm. Detective Senior Constable Kimberley Alp of Greater Dandenong CIU said the vehicle had been spotted earlier being driven erratically along the bypass. During a search of the car, police allegedly found about 2.4 kilograms of a precursor chemical for the drug GHB. Al-Dimachki was charged with trafficking and driving while disqualified. He was remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 8 January.

Attacker appeals against jail after head-butting mother A DANDENONG North man is due to appeal against a one-month jail term after pleading guilty to headbutting a mother in Dandenong Plaza car park. A court was told on Monday last week that Dragi Gjorgiev, 40, was enraged after the victim’s car door rested on his car while she strapped her son into a car booster seat about 3.30pm on 10 January. Police prosecutor First Constable Tanique McFarlane told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court that Gjorgiev
“I wonder if (my sons) will be attacked or racially abused for the colour of their skin. I don’t enjoy my life.” According to a witness statement seen by the Journal, Gjorgiev told the victim and her mother to “go back to (sic) own country”. He allegedly called the victim and her mother “morons” telling them several times “we don’t want you here”. Magistrate Julie O’Donnell accepted Gjorgiev suffered anxiety and depression stemming from a
2008 workplace accident but it was a “very nasty” and unprovoked incident. She said though Gjorgiev had no prior convictions, he would be jailed to deter the general community. He was sentenced to anger management treatment as part of a community corrections order, and ordered to pay $500 compensation for damage to the victim’s car. Gjorgiev was bailed to appear at a County Court appeal hearing on 9 December.

verbally abused the victim over the “minor” damage and then kicked in the front passenger side of the victim’s car. The court was told the victim took photographs of Gjorgiev’s car registration plate before Gjorgiev grabbed her wrist, pulled her close to him and head-butted her forehead. In a victim impact statement read to the court, the victim described herself as previously sociable. She stated she now suffered anxiety attacks at the thought of being in crowds.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Debate’s a debacle
IT IS an absolute disgrace that changes to the new civic centre are in the pipeline. Surely someone looked at the plans more than once (other than Maria Sampey who noted the design flaw) and gave the green light to build according to those plans. If the problem wasn’t dealt with then, well that’s just bad luck, live with it. The building has already cost way too much. We’ve already had to purchase new bins when there was nothing wrong with the ones we had. The new bins are cheap and nasty with lids that already need replacing as they are so flimsy. We ratepayers are sick of continually having to put our hands in our pockets. Lynn Johnston, Keysborough.
YOUR front page article on the toilet at the civic centre was one of the most ludicrous things I’ve read in a long, long time - equalled only by the burqa (non) debate (Dunny Debacle, Journal, 20 October). After what has already been $65 million spent, absolutely leave it as is and live with it. Many years ago, as an employee of the Greater Dandenong council, the entrances to the staff toilets (there were no shower facilities) were on either side of the tea room back wall. One had to walk in to access the lockers (which were situated up against the side of the short corridor leading to the toilets) where staff could put their handbags, food and other belongings/valuables for the day. To go out of the toilets and to your desk, one had to walk back through the kitchen. It just worked. I now work for a large organisation where again, on all floors (the CEO uses the same facilities as the rest of us) the male and female toilets are adjacent to and/or are across the corridor from the kitchen. Makes sense, doesn’t it? The only exception would be if it really were a matter of a door separating the cistern from the kitchen sink, where there may be genuine hygiene and emotional discomfort (especially for women) factors. D. Lee, Springvale.
SURELY the councillors should have seen this “dunny mistake” before they moved in and not be getting the ratepayers to fork out for their silly mistakes. They should surely live with their “mistake”. There is no point crying over spilt milk! Malcolm Bulner, Noble Park.

SOCIALLY SPEAKING RE: Dunny debacle YET another costly debacle in our city. Surely the project manager should have been fully aware of this during building phase. I ask at the plans stage, why was this not picked up. Alan Gordon, via Facebook. AS IF we haven’t given council enough money what with the bin fiasco, now toilets? Give us a break. I’ve just paid them $577 to remove a tree from the nature strip, now how ridiculous is that? All because we had issues to get our caravan in and out of our yard. Christine Sullivan, via web.
DOES councillor Sampey ever have a positive thing to say? l have lived in this city for six years and only ever seen her attack the people she is supposed to be working alongside. Is it true she is paid $24,000 for not doing her job? When I look on the City of Greater Dandenong web site I see she is still using her council credit card to the amount of thousands of dollars. Who cares about the mayor’s dunny? When I rang the council this morning I was told it wasn’t completed because they wanted to see how it works with staff before finalising and
if any change was to be made at most it would be a couple of walls to be added. It’s time to go, Cr Sampey. Neville Wright, via email. IN REGARDS to the toilet debacle at the $65 million civic centre, let them live with it. Someone must have signed off when the building plans were presented to the council. It looks to me like a monumental mismanagement! The same happened again with the roll out of the new bins. We had hardly used them when council employed or contractors came around to change the
brand new lids because they were too flimsy. What a waste of taxpayers’ money! Who was responsible for the bin design and specifications? No wonder rates keep rising! Werner Lieberwirth, via email. RE: None of Our Business But ....... I CANNOT believe councillor O’Reilly re: graffiti removal involving volunteer groups. Doesn’t he think volunteers do enough in our city? I have a suggestion - that councillors spend time in their wards instead, removing graffiti. Would like to see that! Alan Gordon, via Facebook.

Lessons learnt By CASEY NEILL A KEYSBOROUGH principal has received a national award for his achievements in education. Resurrection Primary School’s Steve Bellesini accepted the John Laing Professional Development Awards from the Principals Australia Institute on 17 October. He was working in the public service when he was called up for National Service during the Vietnam War. “When I finished in the army I got a scholarship to go to a university or training college,” he said. His sisters and then-girlfriend were teachers, so teachers college beckoned. That was 38 years ago. Mr Bellesini has spent the past nine years in Keysborough. “I just love it. I just love working with the kids,” he said. “There’s also the community involvement. “I love the fact that we’re a multicultural school. I think that there’s a real richness there. “We have such a wide range of activities. We’ve got a mini golf course here, we’ve got a great art program. We try to cater for a range of kids. “It’s a real mix of everything that makes the place interesting.” Mr Bellesini said “some of the tougher times” were the ones that had stuck with him. “Where you’ve had difficult situations, I believe you can turn it into a positive,” he said. “One mum came back and

Students Daniel, 11, and Kezzia, 11, help principal Steve Picture: ROB CAREW Bellesini hold his trophy. 129461 said ‘thankyou for saving my daughter’. “They’re the sort of things you remember. “Those things when you’ve come through the other end.” Principal Helen Greenhill from St Paul Apostle South School in Endeavour Hills nominated Mr Bellesini for the award. “The world of education, in particular Catholic education, is very blessed to have such a committed professional person who has shown he is willing to share his expertise and knowledge with others,” she said. “Steve has never ending energy and interest in education
and is passionate about professional learning. “He truly is an instructional leader who is able to maintain his leadership focus upon teaching and learning and building capacity and not necessarily upon those tedious administrative duties which often bog us down.” The John Laing Professional Development Award recognises school leaders who have significantly contributed to the professional learning of their colleagues. Principals Australia Institute (PAI) provides quality professional learning, leadership development and support to principals and school leaders.
At the forum, we would like to hear from consumers and carers about: • The current challenges and barriers they face in working towards recovery • What services can do better to support people in their recovery Partners in Recovery provides coordinated support for people with severe mental illness and complex needs. We work with individuals, families and support services to improve access to support across a range of services and sectors.

Advertorial
PRINCIPAL OF YELLOW BRICK ROAD DANDENONG DELWYN RAYNER, EACH WEEK SHARES A COLUMN ON WEALTH MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL MATTERS FOR THE JOURNAL.
Planning for increasing interest rates As economists talk about rising interest rates for mortgages – probably around mid-2015 – it’s worth having a plan for repaying a home loan at a higher interest rate than the rate at which you borrowed. The risk here is pretty basic: you may have budgeted for monthly repayments of around $1700, but two years later the repayments are $2000. Now what? The risk of defaulting on a mortgage, or going into arrears, is more evident when you consider that first home buyers who purchased a property in the past few years have never experienced rising interest rates. The last time the cash rate went up was in November 2010. Finder.com.au research says that every 0.25 per cent rise on a $300,000 home loan costs an extra $50 per month in repayments; and in the current finder.com.au Reserve Bank survey, their expert panel predicts interest rates will increase 1.5 per cent in the next 2-3 years. Whether you’ve recently purchased your first home, or you plan to buy property this spring, here are some tips on avoiding the rising interest rate trap: • Understand that if interest rates rise by 1.5 per cent, it will add around $300 per month on a $300,000, 25-year loan, or around $600 per month for a $600,000 loan. • Be honest about your budget before you borrow. Lenders build a margin into your serviceability, allowing for rising interest rates. But those buffers are not credible if you have understated your monthly outgoings. • The ‘stress test’ on a mortgage comes down to your household cash flow: if you’re looking for a loan, don’t ‘shop’ to see what the mortgage providers will lend you – start with
what you can afford. • If you already have a variable rate loan, do your own stress test: write an honest household budget, and then – if you’ve borrowed at 5 per cent – run a scenario with rates at 7 per cent. Find where you are vulnerable. • Start an emergency fund and have a contingency plan in the event of you or your partner losing their job. • Prepare a plan by knowing the costs of closing-out an unaffordable loan and selling early if you have to. • Explore renting options. You can preserve your asset by renting-out the property and living in a cheaper rental, but will it work in your favour? • Know your refinancing options. Remember, once variable rates are rising, fixed rates are unlikely to be cheaper than variable; and if you refinance to a fixed rate now, you’ll still need a plan for when it reverts to a variable rate loan (at a higher rate). • Investigate a 100 per cent offset account – it could allow you to build an equity buffer before the rates rise. The most important aspect for those who have never experienced rising interest rates is to acknowledge and talk about the scenario in advance. If in doubt, speak to a mortgage broker or financial adviser about strategies. Rising interest rates are not necessarily a disaster – but ignoring them is a big mistake. If you would like to review your current loan please give me a call to arrange an appointment.

Project manager Phil Snow looks over the site. 129445
Back to life By CASEY NEILL BUNURONG Memorial Park is on its way to becoming three times bigger than the Royal Botanic Gardens. Health and Ageing Minister David Davis started work on the Bangholme cemetery’s $50 million redevelopment at a ground-breaking ceremony last Wednesday. The project will generate 125 full time jobs over 18 months and include three chapels, five function rooms, waterways, sculptures, a playground, an administration building and 200 car parking spaces. An Australian-themed landscape design will include more than 80,000 native trees and shrubs. The not-for-profit Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust (SMCT) manages the site,

which was established in 1994. “This is the cemetery of the future,” CEO Jonathan Tribe said. “It’s going to be very different to anything else that exists in Australia. “There’s a great sense of anticipation amongst all the staff here.” Mr Tribe said the 101 hectare site would meet Melbourne’s population needs for at least the next 70 years. “Our vision for Bunurong is to transform a traditional cemetery into a ‘new age’ memorial park visited by hundreds of thousands of people each year,” he said. “We want to demystify cemeteries and get people to regard them as great community assets - green, relaxing places where you can socialise with family
and friends. “That’s how people in the Victorian era regarded cemeteries.” SMCT research found that about 5000 people would visit the Melbourne General Cemetery on a summer Sunday in the 1860s, to picnic in the gardens and promenade along the wide pathways. “In the 20th century, people developed a morbid attitude towards cemeteries,” Mr Tribe said. “Bunurong Memorial Park is a community space that will help change that perception.” The cemetery currently has about 2100 graves, 260 mausoleum crypts and 1370 cremation memorial spots available.

Plastic knife staff threat By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN threatened staff with a plastic knife in Dandenong Hospital’s Mental Health Unit. Steven Thomas Green had told a security guard he’d “stick this in your neck” after grabbing the knife that was lying loose in the unit on 17 March, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court was told on Monday. Prosecutor First Constable Tanique McFarlane told the court that Green, who was visiting the unit, was disarmed and held down by several staff
members. Green’s lawyer said the accused had not taken heroin for the past five years after a long addiction. During the ill-fated visit, Green - who had been an inpatient several times - had been warned not to annoy other patients. “He thought speaking to them would make their day easier,” his lawyer said. “He doesn’t remember being told to leave. Then the doors were closed. He panicked and felt that he couldn’t leave.
“He described it as a switch flicking.” Magistrate Julie O’Donnell said she’d hand down a “very intensive” community corrections order due to Green’s risk to the community. Green was convicted and handed an 18-month community corrections order including 100 hours of unpaid work, corrections supervision and drug, alcohol and mental health treatment.

St James Anglican Church Club fund-raising for 40th By CASEY NEILL KEYSBOROUGH Freedom Club is drumming up community support as its 40th birthday approaches. The not-for-profit occasional care centre is holding a Sunday market at the Springers Leisure Centre on Sunday 9 November. Vice president Michelle Galvin said the event would raise funds to enable the Corrigan Road service to continue providing high-quality, affordable occasional care. “The generosity of the local community and businesses in assisting us this year has been overwhelming and will certainly help Freedom Club reach our 40th anniversary in 2015,” she said. “We cater for about 100 children from the age of six weeks to five years during the school term, providing both a social environment for the kids and a much needed break for the parents. “We rely quite heavily on government assistance and fund-raising from our committee.” Ms Galvin has lived in the area for five years
and frequently drove past the Freedom Club. “However, I was not aware of Freedom Club until early 2012 when a friend from mothers group suggested I put my son in there with her daughter,” she said. “It was with this word of mouth that I have met such a wonderful, caring group of women who I trust implicitly with both my children. “My second son started there at six weeks old.” The market will have 25-plus stalls selling jewellery, Tupperware, clothing, crafts, candles, chocolate, kids’ character clothing, skin care, handmade goodies and more. There’ll also be a disco, face painting, jumping castle, mini golf, food and drinks, a barbecue and raffles. The market will run from noon to 4pm at Springers Leisure Centre, 400 Cheltenham Road, Keysborough. Entry and parking are free.

Life held by a thread By CASEY NEILL “I WANTED to go where I could save my life.” This was Abuk Bol’s only thought as she fled Sudan with her husband and five children in 2004. “Everybody knows why the Sudanese people leave our country the war, a lot of fighting and trouble for everyone,” she said. “When we got accepted to Australia I was so happy to come here because I wanted to save my life.” She settled in Springvale, now lives in Noble Park and has added two more children to her family. “When I came here I didn’t have any English,” Abuk said. “It’s hard to get a job and communicate with people. “Back home I knew how to knit and how to sew. “When I came here I tried to look for a job in what I know. But I didn’t have a certificate.” The 39-year-old studied and got a job in the textiles industry, but found it hard to fit into the workplace. “I didn’t want to work by myself, I wanted to work in a team,” she said. She also wanted to help other women in her situation, so Abuk led a small group from the Twich community of South Sudan to establish the Twich Women’s Sewing Collective. “I opened this shop to talk with people,” she said. The Twich shopfront in Dandenong combines retail, manufac-

The not-for-profit organisation provides training in retail and manufacturing, including certificate III in clothing production in association with RMIT University. “Even if you don’t get a certificate, you will know to how to use the sewing machines,” Abuk said.
They make chair covers for hire, and colourful African-inspired clothing. Varying skill levels are required at different parts of the process from marking and cutting patterns to sewing, ironing and deliveries. “People with children can’t leave them and go to work. You can come at night and iron,” Abuk said. “When you’ve ironed two or
three times you can buy toys for your children.” With help, she secured Twich’s Government Services Office location rent-free. “We just pay outgoings,” she said. But the three-year rent-free deal expires next year. “We don’t really make any money here. We make money sometimes, but it’s going back to people to help them,” she said. So Abuk is seeking ways to raise funds. She held a successful fashion parade at Dandenong Market in August as part of the City of Greater Dandenong textiles festival Cultural Threads. “People are interested to do another one,” she said. “We will charge entry to raise money. But I don’t know how to organise it.” As well as keeping the store going, Abuk is determined to help her homeland. “I’m thinking in a few years I can do something for back home, to teach them or to make a shop for them,” she said. “This country is a good country. There’s freedom to everyone to do what they can. “You have to try your best.” The store is at Shop 6, 46 Walker Street, Dandenong, and is open 10.30am to 4pm Monday to Friday. Call 9792 3343 to hire or buy chair covers, or donate fabric or mannequins.

IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT… A MAN made an ill-fated ‘runner’ to escape a short jail stay which was handed down at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday last week. Faced with an 11-day prison sentence, he started to edge backwards towards the door and - despite the magistrate’s warning that an 18-month jail term hung over his head - he fled. There was a slight speed hump as he rebounded off the courthouse’s automatic doors, which failed to open. “He looked like a scared little mouse,” a witness said, “then he prised the doors open with his hands.” Freedom beckoned but for on-the-ball officers in an unmarked police car, who apprehended the man metres from the courthouse. NOBLE Park Civic Space could have a new name early next year. Councillor Roz Blades said the council built a social place with toilets and a pergola to encourage people to shop and eat in Noble Park. “I would like some ownership of the space and I thought a special naming could occur involving those of us who live in the area,” she said. “It has already won an award and there is signage to that effect, but it would be nice to further involve the people in Noble Park.” What do you think the space should be called? Email journal@starnewsgroup.com. au or visit www.facebook.com.au/Dandenong Journal. MUSICIANS and singers are needed to spread Christmas cheer. Christmas carol concerts will be held in wards at Clayton, Dandenong and Berwick hospitals from 12 to 16 December. The organisers are looking for anyone who can play guitar, flute, violin or bongo drums, or who can hold a note.
Call Vajira on 0401 178 436 for more information. “THAT’S not why I’m here - to tell jokes - which is pretty clear from your reaction.” Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce MC James Sturgess’ jokes fell flat at a recent Premier Regional Business Awards breakfast. He’d updated Shakespearean quotes to the modern day - “A horse, a horse! My kingdom for a horse!” became “Where are the keys to the Commodore?” THE Journal was baffled when it spotted an unusual bumper sticker in Noble Park last week. “You’ll have to honk louder than that. I’ve got a Nanday Conure!” it read. What does it mean? Like www.facebook.com/DandenongJournal and check for the answer next week. SPRINGVALE’S SnowFest and wayfinding signage are in the running for top awards. Springvale SnowFest is a finalist in the Australian Event Awards, which honours the best in public events and will be announced on Tuesday 11 November. City of Greater Dandenong’s new Springvale wayfinding signage has been shortlisted for the Melbourne Design Awards. DANDENONG business icon Gerry Ryan spoke at the Victorian Manufacturing Showcase in “a French spring suit”, MC James Freemantle told the crowd in his introduction for the event ambassador. “The colour is perfectly in in France,” he said. “I do think the French blue does wonders for your eyes, as well.”

COVER STORY
NEW RELEASE WRITES HIGHGROVE’S STORY\ BERWICK-CRANBOURNE ROAD AND PATTERSONS ROAD
WITH two stages sold out, Highgrove is fast becoming Clyde North’s most exciting new community. WITH multiple parklands and avenues linking neighbourhoods, Highgrove is designed with family and community living in mind. Highgrove merges the best of traditional family living with harmonious neighbourhood planning and friendly design. With a strong emphasis on community and open spaces, Highgrove unites four precincts around a beautifully landscaped central neighbourhood park while smaller parks are nestled within the heart of each precinct. These parklands will provide attractive, functional surroundings for a range of community activities from local market days to casual sporting events or an idyllic backdrop for a weekend picnic. The thoughtfully considered layout of Highgrove ensures there is plenty of opportunity to enjoy a comfortable lifestyle connected to nature and the community. With two stages successfully sold, developer Brown Property Group has just launched its latest stage – The Orwell Release. Ideally located only a short stroll from the future neighbourhood park and with lots ranging from 400 to 512 square metres, the Orwell Release is sure to generate a lot of buyer interest. For more information on Highgrove visit www.highgrove.com.au, contact Linda on 1800 444 447 or visit the Highgrove Sales and Information Centre on the corner of Berwick-Cranbourne Road and Pattersons Road, (Melway ref 134 K7).

Advertorial
PRINCIPAL OF YELLOW BRICK ROAD DANDENONG DELWYN RAYNER, EACH WEEK SHARES A COLUMN ON WEALTH MANAGEMENT AND FINANCIAL MATTERS FOR THE JOURNAL.
Planning for increasing interest rates As economists talk about rising interest rates for mortgages – probably around mid-2015 – it’s worth having a plan for repaying a home loan at a higher interest rate than the rate at which you borrowed. The risk here is pretty basic: you may have budgeted for monthly repayments of around $1700, but two years later the repayments are $2000. Now what? The risk of defaulting on a mortgage, or going into arrears, is more evident when you consider that first home buyers who purchased a property in the past few years have never experienced rising interest rates. The last time the cash rate went up was in November 2010. Finder.com.au research says that every 0.25 per cent rise on a $300,000 home loan costs an extra $50 per month in repayments; and in the current finder.com.au Reserve Bank survey, their expert panel predicts interest rates will increase 1.5 per cent in the next 2-3 years. Whether you’ve recently purchased your first home, or you plan to buy property this spring, here are some tips on avoiding the rising interest rate trap: • Understand that if interest rates rise by 1.5 per cent, it will add around $300 per month on a $300,000, 25-year loan, or around $600 per month for a $600,000 loan. • Be honest about your budget before you borrow. Lenders build a margin into your serviceability, allowing for rising interest rates. But those buffers are not credible if you have understated your monthly outgoings. • The ‘stress test’ on a mortgage comes down to your household cash flow: if you’re looking for a loan, don’t ‘shop’ to see what the mortgage
providers will lend you – start with what you can afford. • If you already have a variable rate loan, do your own stress test: write an honest household budget, and then – if you’ve borrowed at 5 per cent – run a scenario with rates at 7 per cent. Find where you are vulnerable. • Start an emergency fund and have a contingency plan in the event of you or your partner losing their job. • Prepare a plan by knowing the costs of closingout an unaffordable loan and selling early if you have to. • Explore renting options. You can preserve your asset by renting-out the property and living in a cheaper rental, but will it work in your favour? • Know your refinancing options. Remember, once variable rates are rising, fixed rates are unlikely to be cheaper than variable; and if you refinance to a fixed rate now, you’ll still need a plan for when it reverts to a variable rate loan (at a higher rate). • Investigate a 100 per cent offset account – it could allow you to build an equity buffer before the rates rise. The most important aspect for those who have never experienced rising interest rates is to acknowledge and talk about the scenario in advance. If in doubt, speak to a mortgage broker or financial adviser about strategies. Rising interest rates are not necessarily a disaster – but ignoring them is a big mistake. If you would like to review your current loan please give me a call to arrange an appointment.

OPENING BID
NEXUS OF SERVICE SATISFACTION WITH 10 years’ experience in the eastern and south eastern suburbs, Nexus Real Estate Agency in Mt Waverley offers a lot of that very useful local knowledge, which is important when people are buying or selling. Director Kevin Phan said as an independent agency Nexus is able to list and sell Melbourne wide without the hassle of franchise rules. “We have local agents with strong local knowledge and we can provide local information including where all the schools, shops, parks, public transport and local restaurants are,” he said. “We also work as a team where all the members assist one another and our focus is customer service - making sure every client has a wonderful experience dealing with Nexus Real Estate.” He said clients also have the benefit of members of staff who between them speak nine languages and can therefore communicate effectively with a large number of customers. “Our agents also come from many different backgrounds including IT, business accounting, photography, telecommunications, travel,
hospitality, engineering, medical and small business,” Mr Phan said. “When dealing with any of our agents you will find the depth of their knowledge and their listening skill shine through. “We are there every step of the way to help our clients make their move smoothly. “We also provide market opinion for commercial and residential for both sales and lease.” Nexus aims to provide professional service in both sales and property management. “Our selling strategy is combined between auction and tender and we negotiate to bring the best result for both clients and buyers,” he said. “We market your properties on three main websites -
www.realestate.com.au, www.domain.com.au, and www.nexusre.com.au and multiple newspapers." He said the aim was to attract more potential tenants and potential buyers. Nexus is also very diligent when it comes to dealing with property management, too. “To maintain 100 per cent outstanding customer service to our landlords and tenants at all times, we limit the number of properties down to 100 for each portfolio." Other agencies have 150 to 250, Mr Phan said. Nexus Real Estate is at 3/641 High Street Road, Mt Waverley. Phone 8833 1000 or contact Kevin on 0488 888 696.

REGIONS AFFORD LIFESTYLE APPEAL Rising Melbourne house prices have prompted many first homebuyers and families on a budget to consider the advantages of regional Victoria. While prices have increased in some regional areas, particularly the major centres and towns within close commuting distance of Melbourne, a number of affordable properties can be found in regions that offer quality services and lifestyle attractions. The latest REIV median house price data for the September quarter brought good news for buyers who are looking
increase in value over the year, with growth at more than 25 per cent in some parts of the state. Areas in particular that experienced exceptional growth included the Colac-Otway region (with 9.4 per cent growth in the September quarter) and Wangaratta (with a rise of 11.5 per cent in the past three months). Seasonality also plays a strong factor in regional sales, with the median house price in the Alpine region up 10.2 per cent in the September quarter - coinciding with the peak ski season which
outside of Melbourne. The regional median house price now stands at $324,000 - around 50 per cent lower than the current Melbourne house price median which makes purchasing a property well within the reach of buyers on a tighter budget. Capital growth figures for the 12 months to 30 September also illustrate that despite some fluctuations in the market, property can deliver a solid long term investment. Homes in regional Victoria showed an overall 4.5 per cent
also represents the best time of year for sellers. Areas with good local infrastructure continue to attract regional buyers who seek lifestyle opportunities in well-serviced locations. Both Benalla and the Indigo region experienced smaller growth of around 3 per cent in the last quarter, but grew by double digits in the past 12 months - indicating that Victoria’s regional property market still offers an affordable entry point while delivering considerable returns over a sustained period.

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.

Fun day for lights festival other sweets - mithai. Diwali, also known as Deepavali, means ‘a row’ or ‘a series of lights’ and is a time for reflecting, cleansing and celebrating the victory of light over darkness. Hindu legend traces Diwali to Lord Rama, a descendant to the Hindu God Vishnu, who returned to his kingdom following 14 years in exile and won a battle against a demon king. The story told of how people lit up their houses to celebrate his victory.

Speaking up for Spanish By CASEY NEILL SPRING Parks Primary School took a Spanish twist this month. The dual-campus Springvale school combined on 15 October to celebrate its new language program. Spanish teacher Solange Parisi said the school re-introduced language studies from Prep to Grade 6 this year. “They all have one hour of Spanish a week,” she said. “You get to learn the greetings, the colours, the numbers... they all started off with the basics of the language.” The language is spoken in 21 countries. “We’ve focused on Spain, Mexico and Chile this year,” Ms Parisi said. “Next year we’ll try to incorporate other countries.” The Spanish day featured a sombrero-making activity and Mexican
hat dance, an empanada lunch, a demonstration of Chilean dance La Cueca, a class in Dominican street dance Merengue and more. “It was a great day, it was fun, everybody dressed up,” Ms Parisi said. “It was such a success we’ll be doing again next year. “At the end of the day each grade got a pinata with lollies inside.” She said the day was about immersing students in the Spanishspeaking cultures. “Learning another language also helps you improve your mother tongue,” she said. “It’s being able to use a different part of your brain to learn another language and make links to English. “This would be a third language for a lot of them as well. “A lot of them already learn an Asian language on a Saturday - they go to Chinese school or Vietnamese school.”

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
Making things is the next big thing By CASEY NEILL MORE than 550 people heard that “manufacturing will be the next big thing in the Victorian economy” at the Victorian Manufacturing Showcase. Department of State Development and Business and Innovation (DSDBI) and Industry Capability Network (ICN) ran the event at Chisholm TAFE in Dandenong last Tuesday, 21 October. It was divided into three themes - inspiration, education and opportunities - with industry speakers, interactive panel sessions and networking time. Committee for Dandenong member and law firm M + K’s Victorian managing director James Sturgess was thrilled to see it held in Dandenong. “It’s showcasing manufacturing for the whole of the state,” he said. “This is the manufacturing heartland.” Mr Sturgess said Hickory Group cofounder and managing director George Argyrou highlighted that anyone could be a manufacturer. “He’s in construction, but what he’s done is through outside the square, taken an innovative approach to building apartment blocks, so does it on a modular basis now,” he said. “He builds the bathroom in his factory where he employs 400 people. “It was a really good example of how manufacturing is everywhere and that’s
why we need it and why we should continue to support it.” Mr Sturgess said manufacturing brought in 17 per cent of M + K’s fees. “Manufacturing is vitally important for service providers, too,” he said. “Whether that’s accountants or lawyers or IT people or repairers of machinery manufacturers are just the heart and soul,” he said. He was impressed with the event’s attendance, in terms of numbers and passion. “The only criticism for the day would be that I didn’t walk away going ‘I’m really clear what the outcomes from the day will be’,” he said. Showcase ambassador and Jayco managing director Gerry Ryan said the nation’s manufacturing sector “continues in footy talk - to kick against a pretty stiff breeze”. He said the most important lesson he’d learnt in 40 years at the Jayco helm was to value people - employees, suppliers and dealers. Relay Monitoring Systems (RMS) managing director Alan Fancke said it was very important that manufacturers believed in the future. “It’s my very strong belief that manufacturing will be the next big thing in the Victorian economy,” he said. Mr Fancke said the company built to order, to fill gaps its major competitors
had left and turned to students to inject vibrancy into the workplace. “They make plenty of mistakes but they know more than we ever have,” he said. “The change in our organisation has just been incredible.” SRXGlobal Australian general manager Jeff Malone was unemployed and living in Indonesia with his family when he contacted a Melbourne father he’d met through Girl Scouts in China. “You have to look out for new opportunities,” he said. Under his leadership, SRX opened a factory in Malaysia that’s been a key driver for growth in its Dandenong operations. “Instead of fighting the trend to ship offshore... we turned adversity into opportunity,” Mr Malone said. SRX invested in a prototyping line a year ago after learning its competitors could deliver the service cheaper and faster. “If someone else can be doing it, why can’t we?” Mr Malone said. He hoped the initiative would bring in $100,000. It delivered $1 million. “Embrace adversity and stare it right in the eye,” he said. “Don’t let it blind you to the opportunities it presents.” Chisholm tourism and hospitality students assisted with guest registration and provided morning tea and lunch.

Rangers scalded by hot Flames By RUSSELL BENNETT JUST three points. For everything that went wrong for the Dandenong Rangers in their WNBL home clash with the Sydney Uni Flames on Saturday night, they still only lost by three points - 81 to 78. The Rangers were soundly beaten on the glass for most of the night, missed a host of uncontested layups, and some of their key contributors were kept eerily quiet; yet they still nearly escaped with a win. It was the second time in less than a week that coach Mark Wright’s side nearly pulled a rabbit out of a hat. Yet instead of being 2-0 in the win column for the week, they came away 0-2 with losses to the Flames and Adelaide. WNBA superstar, American import guard Cappie Pondexter showed why she’s one of the world’s best players with a brilliant individual game against the Flames - finishing with 30 points, 10 rebounds and four assists. Despite only measuring 5’9” in the old scale, or 175 centimetres, she plays with the strength of a forward constantly finishing plays at the hoop despite facing heavy contact. Sydney led by just four points at the end of the first term, 20-16, but it was one of real frustration for the Rangers. Their shots, from both long and short-range, just weren’t falling. The Flames stretched the margin out to 12 points in the second quarter before, piece by piece, the Rangers started to get their act together on the offensive end and trailed by just five points at the half, 40-35. But the deficit was back out to 10 points, 6454, in a much more free-flowing third quarter. Starting centre Lauren Scherf, just 18-yearsold, and her backup Amanda Meinking, also 18, didn’t exactly have standout offensive nights for the Rangers but showed plenty in limited minutes. Rangers’ star forward Alice Kunek (shoulder) also dusted off the cobwebs in her first game back.

Coach Mark Wright’s Rangers nearly pulled a rabbit out of a hat. 129256
Cappie Pondexter was nothing short of brilliant for the Dandenong Rangers’ WNBL side on Saturday night, but it wasn’t enough to snatch victory from the jaws of defeat. 129256 Pictures: JARROD POTTER “No matter what you say about the result - and it’s disappointing, definitely - the team has one player back from last year so it’s going to take some time (to gel),” Wright said after the Sydney game. “But the team has shown some great resilience against Adelaide, and again tonight. “We’ve got some young, inexperienced players who are coming along nicely and then when you have one of the best players in the world in Cappie Pondexter you’re always going to give yourselves a chance. “She’s incredible and we’re just so lucky to have her.” Wright acknowledged the Flames’ offensive rebounding gave them a big edge - allowing them second and even third chances to score at times. “That’s something we want to hang our hat on and today we were crushed by them so we need to raise the bar there,” he said. “The same thing happened against Adelaide on Thursday - with 20 seconds to go we were two points down and missed an open three. “Tonight we were two down and turned the ball over.” Wright knows this WNBL season is a marathon, not a sprint. “This team is going to be really good,” he said. “All we have to do is get our foot in the door of the finals and we’ll give it a real crack.” Earlier in the week, on Thursday, Adelaide Lightning scraped home against the Rangers by five points; 68-63. Pondexter and Tegan Cunningham led the way for Dandenong with 19 points apiece. The Rangers are on the road for a pair of away games this week - against the Spirit in Bendigo on Thursday night, and at the AIS Arena against the Capitals on Saturday afternoon.

SPORT DANDENONG DISTRICT CRICKET ASSOCIATION - Round 2
VSDCA - Round 2
A season up for grabs By DAVID NAGEL DOMINANT outright victories, a quality run-chase and superb bowling efforts from two teams that look sure to figure prominently at the end of the season... the conclusion of DDCA Round 2 had a touch of everything on Saturday. BUCKLEY RIDGES v BERWICK A DESPERATE, and in the end, successful bowling change from Berwick (9/311cc) skipper Jarrod Goodes has landed the Bears maximum points against Buckley Ridges (66 and 116) at Park Oval. Defending their imposing score from day one was never in question for the Bears, skittling Buckley earlier in the day, but claiming the most important wicket... number 20... was proving quite elusive in their quest for outright points. Buckley’s Wes Nicholas (8) and Lukas Hoogenboom (15 not out) had kept everything out during their 21-run last-wicket stand, but one ball from Goodes, with just one more over remaining, trapped Nichols in front and the Bears tucked 10-points into the cave.Goodes (4/17) was the pick of the bowlers in the early rout, while Dushan Wickramarathna (5/52) backed up his fine knock from day one (83) to be the second innings destroyer. DANDENONG WEST v COOMOORA A PETER Atkinson (3/18 and 6/28) master class has steered Dandenong West (228) to outright victory against an extremely disappointing Coomoora (83 and 56) at Greaves Reserve. Sure... Atkinson had help... from Shaun Weir (4/35) and Jacob Weeks (3/20) in the first innings,
and from Weir (2/22) again in the second, but his performance in taking nine wickets for the afternoon was truly outstanding. It’s worth remembering, that Atkinson (48) and Weeks (40) did change the complexion of this match with some late order runs on day one. PARKFIELD v MORDIALLOC MORDIALLOC (8/212dec) faced its sternest resistance for the match - but that wouldn’t be hard - before claiming outright points and ladder leadership against Parkfield (38 and 95) at Parkfield Reserve. The Bloodhounds, who needed just five wickets to complete the outright rout, were held up by Matt Aslett (36) and Tony Payne (22) before Stuey Squires (4/10) ran through the lower order. Chathura Athukorala (3/4 and 4/23) claimed seven wickets for the match and proved too hot for the Bears to handle. LYNDALE v NORTH DANDENONG THE only successful run chase for the day occurred at Lyndale (241), where North Dandenong (6/244) pair Clayton McCartney (80 not out) and skipper Shane Clark (59 not out) combined for an unbeaten and match winning 120-run stand. In trouble at 4/56, the visitors relied on Craig Gunawardana (37) to dig them out of a hole before the talent-laden McCartney and Clark steered their side to victory to make it two from two to start the season. HEINZ SOUTHERN DISTS v CRANBOURNE AN OMINOUS looking Cranbourne (277) has powered through HSD (154) at Reedy Reserve. Adam Semmens (56) and Gar-
Springvale South’s Yoshan Kumara takes aim against Hallam Kalora Park. Kumara took 2/35 in his sides comfortable victory. 129604 Picture: ROB CAREW rick Wiramanaden (36) gave HSD just the start it was looking for, but once their 80-run union was ended... Cranny went in for the kill. The deadliest-duo in the competition, Te Ahu Davis (4/22) and Steve Spoljaric (2/36), once again came to the fore. HALLAM KALORA PK v SPRINGVALE STH LAST season’s runner-up, Springvale South (278), locked in its first
win of the season after a successful defence against Hallam Kalora Park (157) at Hallam. The home side looked good at times, with Rhys Serpanchy (40) and Ben Hillard (30) leading the way, but it lost wickets in a hurry... and at inappropriate times. Ruwan Kellepotha (4/51), Tim Ford (2/18) and Yoshan Kumara (2/35) were the pick of the bowlers for last season’s minor premiers.
Panthers in a three-straight mess A DEEP breath of fresh country air has not stopped the slide of Dandenong (8/168), the Panthers crashing to their third straight defeat, proving no match for Melbourne (5/169) at Peter Siddle Oval in Maryvale on Saturday. Sent in by the Premier Cricket powerhouse, the Panthers had no answer to the question being asked by Chris Tremain (4/31), who dominated the early exchanges to leave Tom Donnell’s boys in all sorts of trouble at 5/49. David Alleyne (76 not out) then set a platform, built on by James
Nanopoulos (29), to see the Panthers to a competitive total. Alleyne and Nanopoulos combined for a 70-run sixth wicket stand - the highlight of the innings. The Panthers’ attack was then punished, flayed to all parts of Maryvale Reserve by opener Matthew Brown, who smacked 92 not out from just 108 balls. Brown shared match-winning stands of 65 with fellow opener Andrew Kent (24), and a 70-run, fourthwicket union with Brenton McDonald (40), to guide his side to victory. Matt Willcocks (3/31) was the pick of the Panthers’ attack. Dandenong host Frankston Peninsula this
By DAVID NAGEL ENDEAVOUR HILLS (146) has pulled one out of the fire against Noble Park (138), coming from a seemingly impossible position at the end of day one to roll the reigning premiers at Sydney Pargeter Reserve. Friendless in the betting market (if we had one) after the first day’s play, the Eagles produced a stunning bowling display to pull off an upset victory. Resuming at 1/66, with Sanjeewa De Silva (30 not out) and Marasinghe Perera (26 not out) seemingly in control, the visitors lost quick wickets, De Silva (35) and Perera (31) gone early on day two, before Chris Pereira (4/43), Vaughan Baxter (3/20) and Shane Peake (2/9) upped the ante even further. Pereira and Baxter swept through the middle order before Peake claimed two of the last three wickets to fall to spark joyous celebrations. The Eagles took a little of the gloss off their victory, slumping to 8/70 in their second innings as Noble Park speedster Rizan Mawzoon (5/37) made it nine wickets for the match. Endeavour Hills travel to Croydon for the first one-dayer of the season this Saturday, while Noble Park host Mt Waverley at Moodemere Street.
VICTORIAN PREMIER CRICKET - Round 5 (One day)
By DAVID NAGEL
At their Peake
Saturday on day one of the first twoday game for the season. The match starts at 11am. WOMEN’S PREMIER CRICKET DANDENONG Lions (150) battled its heart out on Saturday, falling just short of inflicting ladder-leader Box Hill (161) with its first loss of the season at Greaves Reserve. Skipper Erica Kershaw called correctly and sent Box Hill in to bat, the Lions battling bravely against Cassandra Brock (50) and Rebecca Carter (20), who led a disciplined batting performance. The Lions had some real stars of their own during the first session, Sophie Molineux
(3/18), Alana King (3/31), Courtney Neale (2/23) and Emma Gallagher (2/28) all chiming in with multiple success stories. The Lions didn’t start well in reply, but the class of Sarah Elliott (57) and Molineux (31) soon had them back on track. Key wickets to Danielle Montague (3/34) and Julia CrockettGrills (3/10) - who claimed Elliott - gave Box Hill the impetus to score an important victory. The Lions, who are still travelling well in third position on the ladder, host Prahran at Greaves Reserve this Saturday. The first ball will be bowled at 11am.
