■ Salvation Army says homeless numbers are up this Christmas...
No roof above By BRIDGET SCOTT

This year, CISS will partner with the Cranbourne Salvation Army to provide a free lunch on Christmas Day for anyone in the community who had nowhere else to eat. She listed other ways that their centre helps the homeless, which included
“Although it won’t ever replace home.” Ms Jose said they provided meals for those who were homeless as well as showers and were in the process of establishing a cafeteria. She said without food donations
a swag for those doing it rough. “It’s a wonderful swag and doubles as a backpack,” she said. “It has a secure pack where belongings can be included and a protective sheet which can act as a wind and rain barrier.”
FREE
from the public, groups would not be able to cope, particularly at this time of year. “It’s great what the community can and will do at this time of the year,” she said. “We really do all need it all year round.”

WITH Christmas just around the corner, this traditionally cheerful time isn’t so happy for some, and a mere stark reminder that they don’t have a table to eat from this festive season. Rates of homelessness have hit a peak in Cranbourne, as families and individuals continue to struggle with the cost of living. Kerry Jose from the Cranbourne Salvation Army branch said they had seen a “big increase” in the number of people who had come through their doors lately. “Our shower facilities have been used more regularly,” she said. She also added that with Christmas time upon us, food becomes a real issue with more parcels handed out to the community at this time of year. “We try to make up nice hampers so people have nice food on the table this Christmas,” she said. Ms Jose said she had seen many new people come through their doors lately had put it down to the high cost of living. “Mortgages, rental costs and general costs of living have made it difficult,” she said. Ms Jose said the homeless tend to either ‘couch surf’ - shift from different houses each day or stay in boarding houses or live on the street. Cathy Willmott from Cranbourne Information Support Service (CISS) agreed that there has been a significant increase in the amount of homeless in the area. “Mortgage stress would be the number one (factor) as it’s a high growth corridor,” she said. “Young families and young people are overcommitting.” “Essentially, people are committing to properties beyond their means to maintain.” Ms Willmott said there were both legal and illegal boarding houses in the area, but their service, as well as others, aimed to assist homeless people wherever they could.

WHO would have thought that a childhood hobby which often ended in tears and bruises could become a celebrated career? On Saturday, 6 December, professional tree climbers from across the country descended on Lynbrook for the Australian Tree Climbing Championships and proved the prospect possible. Around 25 of Australia’s best climbers competed in a national event organised by Arboriculture AustraliaTM at Banjo Paterson Reserve, Lynbrook. Arboriculture AustraliaTM vice-president Craig Hallam said the climbers had qualified for the event through Statebased competitions and would compete for the title of female and male Australian Champion. City of Casey mayor Mick Morland said council was thrilled that one of Casey’s locations had been chosen to host the event. “The same reserve hosted the Victorian championships last year,” he said. “Council is thrilled that the reserve will now host the national competition following the success of last year’s event.” The competitions are designed to stimulate the day-today activities of professional climbing arborists and showcase the highest level of professional skills and safety. The winners of the event will go on to represent Australia at an international level at the March 2015 International Tree Climbing Championships (ITCC) in Florida. The ITCC event, hosted by the International Society of Arboriculture (ISA), brings professional tree climbers from more than 20 countries around the world to compete for the World Championship, including North America, Japan, New Zealand, Australia and Europe. Councillor Morland had encouraged everyone to get along and watch the champions at work. “This event is the perfect opportunity to watch industry professionals showcase their specialised skills in a unique competition,” he said.

Fast pace fights problem Emergency services have been groaning under the evergrowing weight of mental illness patients. A PACER team - a psychiatric nurse coupled with a police officer roams the southeast to lighten the load. CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS went along for the ride.
There’s not a police shift that you wouldn’t have a mental health related call out…
“
“BEING on PACER, you don’t know what will happen next,” said psychiatric nurse Cameron Duncan - with the hint of a grimace. Duncan, accompanied by police First Constable Travis Cute, has just been called out to assess a Burmese refugee in his twenties who speaks little English. They are told the man has walked into Springvale Police Station and asked for help. He feels a burning sensation and pain in his hands and body, and has apparently told officers he may be assassinated and he would cut off his own testicles. When PACER staff arrive, Cameron conducts an interview. It takes a ponderous 90 minutes using a Burmese interpreter on speaker-phone. He decides the man has psychosis - paranoid, seeing things and hearing voices, talking about having an implant put in his tooth by a dentist and that people are out to kill him. One thing is cleared up - the man doesn’t want to lop off his testicles. His interpreter explained as the man wryly smiled that he’d said his illness was “reducing his manhood”. Thankfully, the meaning got lost in translation. But a startling fact is uncovered as Cameron asks about the man’s traumatic, dangerous life history. The man feels guilty about accidentally stabbing a man to death during a fight in a “meat store” four years ago, before he came to Australia. What happens with that piece of information is uncertain. There are doubts on the reliability of the evidence given the man’s condition. Presumably
“
First Constable Travis Cute
Cameron Duncan and First Constable Travis Cute are taking mental-health care out to the streets. 131571
Resources struggle to keep up with demand AS PACER drives to a job, the police radio crackles with other potential incidents - a grandmother in Noble Park anxious after being threatened by her ice-addicted son, a drunk woman in Narre Warren who’s threatened to selfharm after suffering domestic violence, a teenage boy in Dandenong poised to self-harm. PACER brings its patient
in for voluntary admission at Dandenong Hospital but the mental health wing is full and the emergency department is filling quickly. The hospital’s 50 mental health beds are full, as are another 56 in Casey and Monash. “It’s cactus,” psychiatric nurse Cameron Duncan said. After completing assessment forms, Cameron
his criminal history had been scanned by immigration authorities before he arrived in the country. Cameron and First Const Cute are rostered on PACER (Police, Ambulance and Critical Early Response) - a hybrid of a psych clinician and a police officer. Each evening in Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia Shire, a PACER team is on-call. It responds to police callouts for people threatening self-harm or otherwise struggling with their mental health. They come in after a police unit has first ensured that the scene is safe. PACER mops up with the psych assessment - deciding whether the patient can stay home or needs hospitalisation.

nong emergency department, four police officers bring in the teenage boy that PACER had heard about on the radio 20 minutes earlier. He is brought in with his girlfriend because of an apparent suicide pact. Both need to be assessed by hospital staff and probably need hospitalisation. A staff member sticks her head in the room. She
waiting room, just sitting with a mentally ill woman until she was assessed by medical staff. It was not the best use of police resources and often not the best use of hospital resources. Since PACER was set up in Narre Warren in late 2011, it has seen more than 1500 cases. About 80 per cent of those were swiftly treated and left at home, rather than being escorted to an often-burdened hospital. “There’s people who regularly call us when PACER is on. They know we can help them in a much more efficient manner without going to hospital,” First Const Cute said. Sergeant Graeme Stanley, who
said she needs help for a code-grey situation in the emergency department in which a patient has become abusive or threatened violence. Staff speak calmly and directly as they shuffle resources to snuff out each spotfire. Anyone who needs help with mental health issues can call Lifeline on 131 114 or Beyondblue on 1300 224 636.
oversees PACER, said the program had “astronomical” feedback. It has been replicated in other Melbourne regions, including in Moorabbin two weeks ago. “Knowing that PACER is going to go to a job and release the other police units - it gives us more options to deal with things as they arise. “Even when PACER takes a person to hospital, the (nurse) know the people at the hospital and are familiar with the mechanisms which makes for a swifter handover.” Sergeant Samuel said PACER could usefully extend its daily eight-hour evening shift to 24/7 - if there were the resources.

Cameron's laborious 90-minute interview with the patient at Springvale Police Station has saved the hospital valuable time. Meanwhile at Dande-
In the past, police may make their own assessment that a patient is mentally ill, take the patient to hospital and potentially sit with them in an emergency ward for hours. First Const Cute said suicide threats by family violence victims seem common. Often the threats are hollow, a means of retaliating against a domineering partner. But sometimes they are not. “There’s not a police shift in Dandenong that you wouldn’t have a mental health related call out.” First Const Cute has painful memories pre-PACER of languishing for his entire eight-hour police shift in Casey Hospital emergency department’s

Hot cars are deadly By BRIDGET SCOTT RECENT statistics released by Ambulance Victoria has shown that Cranbourne has ranked one of the highest in the state for leaving children in locked cars on hot days. In the period from 1 September 2013 to 31 August 2014, Ambulance Victoria received 23 calls regarding people locked in vehicles, 92 per cent of these are believed to have been for children aged 13 or under. An average of one call in this time was made for surrounding areas including Cranbourne East, Cranbourne North, Cranbourne West and Botanic Ridge. Ambulance paramedics were disappointed with the 10 per cent increase in children left in cars this year compared to last. From December 2013 to March 2014, an average of four calls a day were made to triplezero reporting someone locked in a car.
That number peaked at 13 in one day during the January heatwave. Group manager Brett Drummond said leaving children in a car could prove deadly. “People don’t seem to understand the deadly risks involved in leaving a child in a hot car,” Mr Drummond said. “Tragically, there have been cases of children dying in hot cars in Victoria in recent years.” He said the dangers associated with leaving children in hot cars are much higher than that if an adult was left in a hot car. “Being left in a hot car can quickly become life threatening for babies and young children as they can’t regulate their body temperature like adults can,” he said. “They may suffer from heat distress in the beginning followed by heat stroke. They dehydrate quite quickly.”
“The consequences can be unconsciousness and even coma, and unfortunately some children may die. It can be minutes.” “How quickly the effects begin to appear can depend on how old the child is and how hot the day is but we’re seeing evidence that cars can get very hot very quickly to quite dangerous levels.” He added that it doesn’t have to be high temperatures for children to be affected. “It doesn’t have to be a scorching hot day for the car to quickly heat up. Tests by Ambulance Victoria found that even on a 29-degree day the inside of a car can reach 44 degrees within 10 minutes and hit 60 degrees within 20 minutes,” he said. “You wouldn’t get out of the car after shopping and leave your ice cream in the back seat, so why would you

leave your children there?” Mr Drummond said calls to children locked in cars were a mix of deliberate or careless acts, and accidents where the keys were locked in the car with the child. Acting Senior Sergeant at Cranbourne Jen McKenna said there were penalties associated with leaving your children in the car. However, she added that the priority should be the child’s health. “It is a brief offence - offenders may be charged and have to appear in court,” she said. “It means that anyone who is deliberately leaving kids in cars, particularly on hot days, police will prosecute.” “The offending driver or offending person in charge of the car at time will be interviewed and summons issued to appear at court.”
TWO men have been charged with drug trafficking, after police allegedly saw a drug deal take place in Cockatoo. Leading Senior Constable Richard Murphy said police saw the drug deal take place and arrested one male, before arresting two others down the road for trafficking ice (methamphetamine). Leading Sen Const Murphy said that the three men, a 19-year-old from Gembrook, a 19-year-old from Cockatoo and a 22-year-old from Lysterfield were interviewed by police and two would face charges. “Their phones were seized from the two males charged and detailed a lot of drug activity in the area,” Leading Sen Const Murphy said. “They were remanded and bailed to appear at court on a later date. One man was due to face Ringwood Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday and the other will face Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 11 March 2015.
Foretaste of high school By BRIDGET SCOTT FUTURE students to Casey Grammar got a taste of secondary school last week when around 90 pupils turned out for orientation day. Year 7 co-ordinator Kate Morgan said students from about 30 different schools came along, in addition to those who were in Grade 6 at the Cranbourne East school.
Students made their way around the school for the day and met their future classmates. “Students took the opportunity to make friends, meet new teachers and find their way around the school,” Ms Morgan said. “A highlight for many students was when they were given a combination lock to take home and practise over the holidays.”

Letters What a shame HOW disappointing to read your front page story this week. I was at the Narre Warren North Pre Poll voting booth every day and did not see any evidence to support the Liberal candidate’s complaints. I know that the Labor volunteers had all been briefed about acceptable behaviour and not to make any disparaging remarks about candidates. It was obvious that at least three of the Liberal team had not had such instructions, but I won’t go into details. I’m sure the returning officer would have responded appropriately to any official complaints from the Liberal candidate or her campaign manager, had there been any real concerns. I think the main impediments to people wanting to cast a vote at the pre-poll booth were the number of huge trailer-mounted Liberal billboards and Liberal badged cars parked along the roadsides outside the polling booth and the gang of people in blue Tshirts who surrounded the gate to the booth to ensure their candidate was the last person to speak to each of the voters. One wonders where the funds came from to pay for all the marketing and the all-night security guards to protect Liberal posters at the Saturday polling booths. It’s a real shame that many potentially good councillors in the City of Casey get talked into running for State Government elections. Brian Oates, Endeavour Hills.

ROSALIE Crestani, councillor for the Four Oaks Ward, has allied with Rise Up Australia, an anti-Islamic fringe political party, with an intent of worming her way into the Victorian Parliament. Crestani has angered the Islamic community of the Four Oaks Ward by her anti-Islamic stand. She is a firecracker with no purpose or plan for the welfare of the residents of the Four Oaks Ward. Thus far we of Four Oaks have not had one motion passed, beneficial to the Four Oaks Ward. Perhaps Moreland ought to ask her to resign from the role of councillor for the ward. Her attempt to block some LGBTI motion has fizzled out; little did she know that her cohort Kaplon is gay. I might inform both councillors that we, the residents of Four Oaks, are utterly disappointed at the antics of two councillors who do not represent the warp and woof of the family oriented society. I earnestly urge Casey Council to call on the electoral commissioner to change rules for election to council, to incorporate the requirement that to be elected to local government all over Victoria, the candidate be a resident of the ward. We in Four Oaks Ward will be prevented from the theatrics of Crestani, with her cohort Monckton who is a Lord of a colonial empire with long-lost authenticity. Four Oaks Ward is a very tolerant society. We want our libraries enhanced, improved bus services to take us to work, our shopping malls clean, and our rates affordable. We will remember the antics

couldn’t attend the meeting of the Friends of the Hampton Park Library. But of course, there were no photo opportunities there. A library is a much-needed part of the community with many patrons of all ages, including ratepayers. Food for thought, Damien?
Back to business NOW that the election is over, done and dusted, perhaps Councillors Ablett, Stapledon, Serey, Crestani and Kaplon could get on with representing their City of Casey ratepayers rather than pursuing other agendas. This also begs the question, should sitting councillors be paid by the city while they spend more time electioneering than attending to voters/council business? Don Moyes, Berwick

Going through Emergency, and Short Stay, they did scans which showed it was my appendix, and I was operated on that night. Then I was in bed at Casey for a total of nine days. Every step of the way, the doctors, surgeons, anaesthitists, nursing staff plus many others were just so caring and fantastic. I cannot speak highly enough of the care I received over the nine days.

THERE were smiles all over the place at Marriott Waters Recreation Reserve last week when the Casey Mayor turned out to help turn the sod for the first all abilities playground in the south-east. City of Casey Mayor Mick Morland, along with fellow councillor Amanda Stapledon, was thrilled to be part of the milestone occasion in Lyndhurst. Livvie’s Place is a partnership between the Touched by Olivia Foundation and the City of Casey and is an all-inclusive play space which invites all members of the community. Volunteer Community Coordinator and ambassador for the project Therese Howell spoke at the sod turn and said there has been nearly $200,000 raised for the project. Ms Howell’s son Jack, who has a physical impairment, was also part of the sod turn and thanked the community for its support. Councillor Morland said this was a great example of the entire community working all together. “This is a significant event in the health and wellbeing of local people,” he said. “It will help to capture children’s imagination and is a great asset for the community.” Ms Howell said she was excited to have a space such as this available to the Casey community. “My son is usually able to take part in most playgrounds,

Help realise a goodbye dream By CASEY NEILL CRANBOURNE North mum Tracey Ryan is calling for winning Tattslotto numbers to make her final dreams come true. The 50-year-old was diagnosed with breast cancer in February 2010 and it’s since spread to her spine, ribs, lungs and liver. Doctors say the disease will soon claim her life. “But that’s only a figure,” she said. “We could all go out tomorrow and get hit by a truck.” She only has two items to complete on the bucket list she wrote in 2012, after ticking off a party with friends and family on 29 November. Up to 100 people gathered at a friend’s home for dancing, laughs and hugs. “It was just a really good vibe,” she said. “My life’s journey has not been easy, but I have learnt one thing that if you have family, friends and love you can get through anything. On 20 September, Tracey watched her daughter, Erin, get married. She skydived on her wedding anniversary last year, climbed the Sydney Harbour Bridge with son Leigh, and on 24 July received a makeover from Westfield Fountain Gate and Myer. Now her focus is on returning to Northern Ireland with husband Andrew to say goodbye to her family - the place where half of her ashes will be scattered. “We’re still staying positive and upbeat,” she said. “I just need the Tattslotto numbers.”
Gillian Tong and Tracey Ryan embrace.
Tracey Ryan with Sharon Driessen and Gillian Tong. A friend has set up a fund-raising page to help make the dream come true. “There is an opportunity to give an amazing gift to a lady who has been fighting for so long - who deserves to find joy in every breath that she takes,” the page says. Finding a cure for breast cancer also remains on Tracey’s list. “I don’t want anyone else or their families to have to go through this,” she said.
Tracey works with Pink Hope, Breast Cancer Network Australia and the National Breast Cancer Foundation, and directs Young Pink Sisters, a charity that fellow breast cancer sufferers set up to give back. She’s encouraging women and men to “check their boobs”. Visit www.gofundme.com/traceysgoodbye to support her trip.

Fashion flourish on the cards
Casey Inspector Paul Breen, Justice of the Peace John ‘Jack’ Arthur, wife Val and JP coordinator Wendy Cantwell. 132294
From a Jack to a JP By BRIDGET SCOTT A DEDCIATED community volunteer will take a step back after 47 years as a Justice of the Peace (JP). John Arthur, known to most as ‘Jack’ started his work as a JP in the swamp town of Kooweerup where he worked in a shoe shop for many of his earlier years. These days, Jack could be found behind the desk at the Narre Warren police station where he was a familiar face to many from the City of Casey.
On Monday morning, police from around the area gathered to celebrate the work of JPs from throughout the area. Jack, accompanied by wife Val on the day, has decided to retire due to fraying health. Casey Inspector Paul Breen said “it’s been a pleasure to be involved with such a communityminded resident.” “I have been involved with Jack in my six months, and all the previous police members think highly of him,” he said.
“We wish him all the best and will miss him.” Wife Val said he was very well known in Kooweerup when he decided to take on the role. “If they had a mayor in town at the time, he would have been it,” she said. “He was a resident of Kooweerup for all his life until he came to Berwick in 1994,” she said. “I know he was very well thought of down there and liked doing things for people where he could.”
Jack said “people knew who he was” and was trying to “be good and do all he could for the people.” Wendy Cantwell, who co-ordinated the Justice of the Peace in Casey described him as a “real gentleman and a delightful man.” “He was a pleasure to have on the roster, I could always rely on him,” she said. “He loved meeting the public and really enjoyed people’s company.”
CONSTRUCTION at Cranbourne Park is well on its way to completion with the recent announcement of a new fashion precinct that will form part of the $113 million transformation. A Cranbourne Park spokesperson said the ‘fashion precinct’ would boast more than 25 stores and would be home to some of Australia’s leading brands. Some of the well-known brands include Cotton On Mega, Lorna Jane and Novo Shoes. “We look forward to announcing additional new retailers as we get closer to the centre’s relaunch in 2015,” the spokesperson said. Regional general manager of Development and Asset Strategy Justin Krzywokulski said they planned to “bring a splash of style” to Cranbourne Park, which was set to offer customers all the latest brands and trends. “We’re also thrilled to welcome JB Hi-Fi that will open in the redevelopment’s second stage in September 2015,” he said. “Opening in March 2015, the new Cranbourne Park will offer an entirely new shopping, dining and entertainment experience for the local community living in Melbourne’s fastest growing area.” “We look forward to unveiling the stylish and contemporary Cranbourne Park which recognises the changing needs of the growing local community and will be a destination for the whole family.” The modern community hub is also expected to offer a new casual dining precinct with an alfresco deck and more than 1700 car spaces.

Elves all around STUDENTS at primary schools throughout the area have been taken over by festive characters as the end of the school year draws close. Santa Claus and elves have frequented school grounds around Cranbourne with Christmas just around the corner. Cranbourne East Primary School and Hampton Park Primary School were among those to mark the end of year with a Christmas concert and parade. While the youngest members of Cranbourne East Primary kicked
off the festivities at their school on Thursday, 4 December. The preps excitement for the festive season shone through when they marched around the school grounds leaving a lasting impression on their audience. Later that day, Hampton Park Primary followed in the other schools footsteps and put on an unforgettable Christmas concert for friends and family.

Bush fringe faces singe By BEN CAMERON THE City of Casey remains one of the highest fire risk areas in the state, according to a southeast police commander, as the threat of arson looms large this summer. Launching the Firesetter Agency Partnership between Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia police service areas as part of a zero-tolerance approach to bushfire arson, Southern Metro Region Superintendent Paul Hollowood said the shire was at the forefront of deliberately lit fires due to the growing nature of those regions. “People seem to think suspicious bushfires mostly start in rural areas but it’s not, it’s where urban development meets bushland,” he said. “This is most relevant for the Casey and Cardinia shires. “The urban fringe. Those areas were people are seeking a
tree change, where urban development is encroaching on the bush, that’s where we are seeing the risk increase.” Southern Metropolitan Commander Doug Fryer said residents should be prepared for an intense bushfire season. “We know that this coming fire season is going to be a long, hot summer,” he said. “Last year we had about 80 suspicious or reckless fires in Victoria, 62 were deliberately lit. “Even though the Cardinia Shire has more rural bushland, the fire threat is strong across Casey and Dandenong too.” Victoria Police has reactivated Operation Firesetter this season - a high visibility initiative designed to reduce the likelihood of bushfire arson during high risk periods. Commander Fryer said that while a multi-agency approach to fire prevention would help increase community safety,
residents had an important role to play. “We can’t do it alone, we need others to be the eyes and ears when it comes to suspicious and odd behaviour,” he said. “If you see something, say something. “Suspicious behaviour can be any number of things. Someone who parks their vehicle in an unusual location, someone who tries to go unnoticed or tries to avoid contact, or someone who leaves in a hurry after being noticed,” he said. “Prompt and detailed reporting of suspicious activities can help prevent bushfires that could lead to loss of property or life. “People who commit bushfire arson are not always strangers, they often live and work in local communities.” Residents can phone Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or triple-zero.

AN AUSTRALIAN soldier who was awarded the country’s highest award for bravery captured the minds of a group of Year 9 students at Cranbourne Secondary College late last month. Thirty-one-year-old Dan Keighran was awarded the Victoria Cross for Australia for his actions in the Battle of Derapet on 24 August 2010 during the war in Afghanistan and spoke at the high school on Thursday 27 November. He is the third soldier to be awarded the medal, which was created in 1991 as a bravery award specifically for Australians, and is also the first member of the Royal Australian Regiment to receive the award. The remarkable story of this young man was enough to invite plenty of questions from students and instil a sense of inspiration among them. The Aussie soldier came from humble beginnings in

BUILT on the former Australian Defence Industry ammunitions factory site, works were begun by Lend Lease in 2001 and the development is currently in the final stages of selling its apartments precinct. Edgewater is an urban renewal development of national significance aimed at setting new benchmarks in urban design excellence, community connection and environmental remediation and reuse. Located 7 kilometres west of Melbourne CBD, Edgewater covers 95 hectares with an expected 1450 dwellings on completion. It is situated along 1.5kms of Maribyrnong River frontage with a central seven-hectare Lake Edgewater holding around 200 million litres of water and offering both private and public harbour moorings. Almost half (45 hectares) the 95-hectare site is retained as open space including 15 hectares of newly created parks, gardens and wetlands. Edgewater is connected through a regional hike and bike path which features public artworks. Edgewater Place is a mixed use precinct including shops, cafes, an Aldi supermarket, office space as well as Club Edgewater, a restaurant and accommodation currently in planning. Lend Lease has implemented a number of key initiatives to respond to the significant constraints of the site. Remediation works included substantial clean up and treatment of contaminated soils, retention and restoration of heritage buildings and the construction of a significant fill platform. ■

THE QUAYS MAB Corporation
THE multi-award winning Quays is MAB’s largest project to date, with a construction cost of $190m.
with an edgier design and an emphasis on exceptional facilities that would supplement apartment living.
MAB was awarded development rights in 1999 to the North End of Victoria Harbour now known as ‘NewQuay.’
This was underpinned by a marketing strategy that involved targeting architecture, personality, affordability and sustainability. Ultimately this assisted in achieving 500 sales and prior to construction commencement.
Since this acquisition they have delivered seven high rise residential developments across the precinct with The Quays being the most recently completed project in 2013. The creation of The Quays has been the culmination of several years of master planning and ideas from a range of experts and stakeholders. This project challenged the status quo in the marketplace and within MAB’s apartment business. Alternatively, it could see a niche in the market for more affordable dwellings,
The NewQuay Docklands Precinct continues to grow, gaining greater market acceptance of a variety of housing and commercial options including apartments, townhouses, retail shops and offices. With some 900 residents in The Quays and 2100 in NewQuay already calling Docklands home, the new community will enjoy the master planned open space, and the convenience of shopping and dining along the waterfront. ■

LOCATED close to one of Melbourne’s most iconic intersections (Toorak Road and Chapel Street) ILK South Yarra is a 24-storey mixed-use development.
shared internal environments foster a sense of community, encouraging interaction and engagement.
ILK has been conceived with ‘place making’, ‘event’, ‘environments’ and ‘craft’ as key concepts. This provides a platform for a diverse community to integrate with and make positive contributions to the Toorak Road precinct.
ILK contains world-class resort inspired amenity across three separate zones: the ground level, Level 3 and Level 9. The key marketing strategy was the creation of an iconic brand for ILK, which was achieved through a sophisticated display suite, and minimal advertising.
Each part of the architecture responds to its specific location within the site. The building’s facade and forms complement the surrounding commercial and retail precinct while creating a more textured and detailed setting that alludes to the intimate spaces of ILK. The quality of living that ILK affords is achieved through the considered blend of interior and exterior spaces; apartments are designed for their sense of sanctuary while
The aim in constructing ILK was to remove the existing building and cross-over to Toorak Road and develop a new structure to reinstate an active street wall to Toorak Road. The design incorporates a podium to reinforce the scale and desired articulation for the broader Toorak Road precinct, as well as a 24-level tower behind it. ■

URBAN RENEWAL
WINNER
TIP TOP Little Projects Pty Ltd
THE Tip Top development is a pioneering urban renewal project in Brunswick East, transforming a large iconic industrial site into a complete residential community including the provision of a childcare centre. The project is on the site of the former Tip Top Bakery: a local landmark that was established in 1939 by Northern Bakeries. It comprises a principal building along the Edward Street frontage, which is significant as a large and sophisticated example of the Dutch Modernist approach, with the remainder completely closed in, occupied by production and manufacturing areas. The result of two years of extensive planning and rigorous consultation with the local and State Government and the community, not only does this development honour the site’s
iconic history, the former Tip Top bakery site, but also creates a successful project that adds life and value to this emerging, inner city community. Designed by architecture firm RotheLowman, the site has been transformed into a series of six residential buildings containing a mix of apartments; from interior-designed apartments, townhouses, duplexes and entry-level apartments, to suit a range of owneroccupiers and investors, as well as a high proportion of first home buyers, who took advantage of the generous first home owners grant available at the time. The interior spaces have been designed with a warm, neutral palette to encourage the resident to inject their own personality into their home. ■

ENVIRONMENTAL EXCELLENCE

URBAN WETLAND AND CASCADES, CAROLINE SPRINGS Lend Lease
THE Urban Wetland and Cascades at Caroline Springs is an innovative storm water treatment solution for higher density urban environments that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. When the traditional ‘organic’ shaped wetland didn’t fully meet the objectives of the planning scheme provisions nor the urban vision of the Caroline Springs Town Centre, an alternate approach was sought. The vision for the Urban Wetland and Cascades was formulated in 2003, with Lend Lease Communities presenting a precedent setting water management system to Melbourne Water Corporation and Melton Shire Council. A formal contemporary straight-edged, geometric system with wetlands, open water
ponds, sand filters and bio-swales all linked through the pedestrian circulation system and road network was proposed. Detailed modelling determined that it would meet water quality and stormwater objectives. This innovative approach challenged stakeholders as it appeared somewhat foreign, expensive and a maintenance liability. The Urban Wetland and Cascades has cost $6.1m to construct with $3.1m reimbursed under the Stony Hills Creek Drainage Scheme. The Urban Wetland and Cascades aims to enhance the urban character of the Caroline Springs town centre and provide open space amenity to support the surrounding mix of high density apartments and townhouses. ■

JUDGES’ AWARD Willow Park, Interlandi Mantesso Architects & JMC Group THE Willow Park project has taken an industrial area and turned it into a new community. Set on a 57,650 square metre site in the predominantly industrial area of Maidstone, the site itself was occupied for industrial use that was no longer required.
www.
Thursday, 5 December, 2014 Page 7
.com.au
Along Omar Street to the west of the subject site, the land is occupied by single allotments of residential use, with their private open spaces abutting the subject site. Residential dwellings began to appear in other disused parcels of land in close proximity, but the area was still mainly industrial with several design constraints to overcome. This included Hampstead Road itself, which is very industrious and carrying heavy vehicular traffic. Nearby Crefden Street was a new council road already in place when the initial design stages began – providing a north facing frontage to the development. The introduction of a new internal road system, a major drainage reserve, open space and a park with wetlands formalised the outline of the stages that were to complement the multi residential precincts. From the outset of the development, a conscious approach was adopted to establish a residential development that would evolve in its architectural form and composition over the duration of the development. This enabled the development to be given a sense of community - via an architectural response of contemporary built forms, with various heights and materiality contributing to a skyline that would set a new preferred neighbourhood character. ■
CONSULTANT AWARD
LANDSCAPE AWARD Chancellor Residences, Sunland Group Ltd THE significant landscaping within the site provides tree canopies and considerable internal streetscape amenity. Landscaped gardens and pathways connect the residences leading to a 975 sqm central park. In total, 1,500 square metres of communal green space is provided across two primary landscaped precincts. Sunland Group is to be congratulated on the integration of these beautifully crafted gardens, which frame the living spaces and provides communal open spaces for the community to enjoy. ■

LANGWARRIN SOUTH
LOCATED on a bitumen road in the highly sought-after area of Langwarrin South is this great lifestyle block on 5.7 acres with plans and permits approved for a two-lot subdivision. Cheldara has been owned and called home by the same family for quite some time and is now being offered to you. Not only as a true representation of a quality lifestyle, but with the potential for a great return. With features such as: Three bedrooms plus study, two bathroom brick veneer family home; master with full ensuite and walk-in robe; bedrooms two and three with built-in robes; family room adjacent to separate dining and with a sunroom for those cool winter days, or could easily double up as a rumpus; great outdoor semi-undercover in-ground pool area; and 5.7 acres of private useable land, able to be subdivided into 2.9 and 2.8 acre allotments.

Either way, your options are endless.

ENTICED BY HORSE LOVERS A SEVEN-acre property complete with a charmingly refurbished cottage and picturesque rural views is not so easy to find these days – so this delightful home and land, located near the sought-after hamlet of Rokeby, is a gem. Enjoy seclusion and peace on this slice of paradise, offering both pastured paddocks and a smaller area of its own natural bush which adjoins the old local railway line and connects to endless trails for riding or walking. In fact, this property caters well for horse lovers, offering a round yard, day yards with shelters, two holding yards plus three larger paddocks, in addition to the acre or so of bush. There is also a massive split level shed
with a separate loft which provides great opportunity for storage, machinery or even a space for a tradesperson to operate from. Renovations to an existing cottage have created a three-bedroom home full of character with extensive indoor and outdoor living and wonderful rural views. Pretty gardens surround the house and the north facing verandah opens to a lovely sunroom at the entrance. Inside the broad family living space, there’s a rustic, country appeal with exposed timber beams, polished floorboards, timber panelling and the cosy ambience of a solid fuel heater which totally nails the mood. There’s also a split system air-conditioner. The open plan works well, combining a relaxed sitting space, spacious dining area
and modern kitchen. White cabinets, stainless appliances and solid timber bench tops complete the U-shaped kitchen work space which is open to both the dining area and family room. Large glass doors reveal a huge deck at the rear which has a commanding view across the property and to the bushland beyond from its elevated place, and there is opportunity to enjoy each season due to this nice synergy between inside and outside living. There are three bedrooms in the home, each with carpet, built- in robes and limed timber boards continue the country feel of the cottage in one bedroom. Convenient to every room are the laundry and bathroom, and a separate toilet.

MERNDA VILLAGES Stockland
LOCATED on the site of a former dairy farm 27 kilometres north of Melbourne’s CBD, Mernda Villages’ rural past and position in a key growth corridor inspired planning for a community where modern living is delivered alongside old-fashioned values. The pillars of economic, environmental and social sustainability have been carefully implemented, ensuring a bright and successful future for the development and its residents. Juxtaposed with large rural lots and townhouse living, Mernda Villages’ urban planning provides a self-contained estate with a lively town centre and diverse product mix that has attracted more than 4500 first home buyers, family upgraders, downsizers and retirees. Accounting for more than 75 hectares of green open space and ecological prerogatives
such as preserving 300-year-old native river red gum trees, Stockland has created a smart, practical and ecologically sound vision for the development while retaining the precinct’s rural character. By maximising the potential for sloping and elevated lots, Stockland has also delivered innovation in housing product to increase lot yield and create an integrated leisure and residential destination in line with the City of Whittlesea Mernda Strategy Plan. The Mernda Villages’ Aquifer Storage and Recovery scheme is the first in a Victorian residential estate and conservation zones, raingardens and parks full of native trees and flora all contribute to sustainability at this HIA GreenSmart-accredited community. ■

BUILT on the former Australian Defence Industry ammunitions factory site, works were begun by Lend Lease in 2001 and the development is currently in the final stages of selling its apartments precinct. Edgewater is an urban renewal development of national significance aimed at setting new benchmarks in urban design excellence, community connection and environmental remediation and reuse. Located 7 kilometres west of Melbourne CBD, Edgewater covers 95 hectares with an expected 1450 dwellings on completion. It is situated along 1.5kms of Maribyrnong River frontage with a central seven-hectare Lake Edgewater holding around 200 million litres of water and offering both private and public harbour moorings. Almost half (45 hectares) the 95-hectare site is retained as open space including 15 hectares of newly created parks, gardens and wetlands. Edgewater is connected through a regional hike and bike path which features public artworks. Edgewater Place is a mixed use precinct including shops, cafes, an Aldi supermarket, office space as well as Club Edgewater, a restaurant and accommodation currently in planning. Lend Lease has implemented a number of key initiatives to respond to the significant constraints of the site. Remediation works included substantial clean up and treatment of contaminated soils, retention and restoration of heritage buildings and the construction of a significant fill platform. ■

MAB was awarded development rights in 1999 to the North End of Victoria Harbour now known as ‘NewQuay.’
This was underpinned by a marketing strategy that involved targeting architecture, personality, affordability and sustainability. Ultimately this assisted in achieving 500 sales and prior to construction commencement.
Since this acquisition they have delivered seven high rise residential developments across the precinct with The Quays being the most recently completed project in 2013. The creation of The Quays has been the culmination of several years of master planning and ideas from a range of experts and stakeholders. This project challenged the status quo in the marketplace and within MAB’s apartment business. Alternatively, it could see a niche in the market for more affordable dwellings, with
The NewQuay Docklands Precinct continues to grow, gaining greater market acceptance of a variety of housing and commercial options including apartments, townhouses, retail shops and offices.

ILK has been conceived with ‘place making’, ‘event’, ‘environments’ and ‘craft’ as key concepts. This provides a platform for a diverse community to integrate with and make positive contributions to the Toorak Road precinct.
ILK contains world-class resort inspired amenity across three separate zones: the ground level, Level 3 and Level 9. The key marketing strategy was the creation of an iconic brand for ILK, which was achieved through a sophisticated display suite, and minimal advertising.
Each part of the architecture responds to its specific location within the site. The building’s facade and forms complement the surrounding commercial and retail precinct while creating a more textured and detailed setting that alludes to the intimate spaces of ILK.
The aim in constructing ILK was to remove the existing building and cross-over to Toorak Road and develop a new structure to reinstate an active street wall to Toorak Road. The design incorporates a podium to reinforce the scale and desired articulation for the broader Toorak Road precinct, as well as a 24-level tower behind it. ■

TIP TOP Little Projects Pty Ltd
THE Tip Top development is a pioneering urban renewal project in Brunswick East, transforming a large iconic industrial site into a complete residential community including the provision of a childcare centre. The project is on the site of the former Tip Top Bakery: a local landmark that was established in 1939 by Northern Bakeries. It comprises a principal building along the Edward Street frontage, which is significant as a large and sophisticated example of the Dutch Modernist approach, with the remainder completely closed in, occupied by production and manufacturing areas. The result of two years of extensive planning and rigorous consultation with the local and State Government and the community, not only does this development honour the site’s
iconic history, the former Tip Top bakery site, but also creates a successful project that adds life and value to this emerging, inner city community. Designed by architecture firm RotheLowman, the site has been transformed into a series of six residential buildings containing a mix of apartments; from interior-designed apartments, townhouses, duplexes and entry-level apartments, to suit a range of owner-occupiers and investors, as well as a high proportion of first home buyers, who took advantage of the generous first home owners grant available at the time. The interior spaces have been designed with a warm, neutral palette to encourage the resident to inject their own personality into their home. ■

URBAN WETLAND AND CASCADES, CAROLINE SPRINGS Lend Lease
THE Urban Wetland and Cascades at Caroline Springs is an innovative storm water treatment solution for higher density urban environments that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. When the traditional ‘organic’ shaped wetland didn’t fully meet the objectives of the planning scheme provisions nor the urban vision of the Caroline Springs Town Centre, an alternate approach was sought. The vision for the Urban Wetland and Cascades was formulated in 2003, with Lend Lease Communities presenting a precedent setting water management system to Melbourne Water Corporation and Melton Shire Council. A formal contemporary straight-edged, geometric system with wetlands, open water ponds,
sand filters and bio-swales all linked through the pedestrian circulation system and road network was proposed. Detailed modelling determined that it would meet water quality and stormwater objectives. This innovative approach challenged stakeholders as it appeared somewhat foreign, expensive and a maintenance liability. The Urban Wetland and Cascades has cost $6.1m to construct with $3.1m reimbursed under the Stony Hills Creek Drainage Scheme. The Urban Wetland and Cascades aims to enhance the urban character of the Caroline Springs town centre and provide open space amenity to support the surrounding mix of high density apartments and townhouses. ■

JUDGES’ AWARD Willow Park, Interlandi Mantesso Architects & JMC Group THE Willow Park project has taken an industrial area and turned it into a new community.

Along Omar Street to the west of the subject site, the land is occupied by single allotments of residential use, with their private open spaces abutting the subject site. Residential dwellings began to appear in other disused parcels of land in close proximity, but the area was still mainly industrial with several design constraints to overcome. This included Hampstead Road itself, which is very industrious and carrying heavy vehicular traffic. Nearby Crefden Street was a new council road already in place when the initial design stages began – providing a north facing frontage to the development. The introduction of a new internal road system, a major drainage reserve, open space and a park with wetlands formalised the outline of the stages that were to complement the multi residential precincts. From the outset of the development, a conscious approach was adopted to establish a residential development that would evolve in its architectural form and composition over the duration of the development. This enabled the development to be given a sense of community - via an architectural response of contemporary built forms, with various heights and materiality contributing to a skyline that would set a new preferred neighbourhood character. ■
CONSULTANT AWARD
LANDSCAPE AWARD Chancellor Residences, Sunland Group Ltd THE significant landscaping within the site provides tree canopies and considerable internal streetscape amenity. Landscaped gardens and pathways connect the residences leading to a 975 sqm central park. In total, 1,500 square metres of communal green space is provided across two primary landscaped precincts. Sunland Group is to be congratulated on the integration of these beautifully crafted gardens, which frame the living spaces and provides communal open spaces for the community to enjoy. ■

Golden egg Goosey By DAVID NAGEL
In just a little over a year in the sport, Hailee Hazeldene already has a state and a national karate title to her name. 132317 Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT
‘No’ is not an option for this karate kid By RUSSELL BENNETT HAILEE Hazeldene clearly isn’t familiar with the word ‘can’t’. At the tender age of 10, and with just 18 months of karate under her belt, she has already won a national title at the Australian Martial Arts Championships (AMAC). The Cranbourne youngster was invited to compete after winning a Victorian state title and won the 8-10 year old beginner/intermediate sparring freestyle at the nationals. All up, there were 16 competitors from across Australia and New Zealand at the Australian titles. The top five place-getters in all events were invited to join the AMAC Australian squad, with two training camps coming up next year in New South Wales and Queensland, and tournaments on the horizon in Japan, New Zealand and the United States. It’s a staggering rate of development for Hailee, not just because of her youth and inexperience, but because she also happens to be deaf. When asked what spurred her on, not only to get involved with karate in the first place, but to strive for such high levels so early, her answer was simple. “I always fight with my brothers and I thought I’d probably fight with them more so I decided to start karate.” But in reality, her parents encouraged the sport as a means of self-defence. And it’s clear now that no-one with even half an ounce of intelligence would mess with Hailee. “There is bullying out there - especially for people with a bit of a difference,” mum Jane said. “It’s basically self-defence, and she loves it because she gets to practice with her brothers too.” Hailee is still in her infancy when it comes to competing in tournaments, but she’s already forged a stellar reputation on the big stage. “She’s received something from nearly every tournament because that’s what she aims for,” Jane said. “Whether it’s first place, second or third - she just keeps trying and doesn’t let the belt or the size of her opponent worry her. “Yes, it gets her a little bit nervous but she just tries.” In some of Hailee’s tournaments she’s had to wear a helmet - which means no hearing aids. Everything about those fights then becomes visual. “I can’t even hear mum cheering,” Hailee said. “But she does yell all the time.” Hailee has also competed at state level in athletics, and played basketball through school. She currently does acrobatics to keep her flexibility going - it helps with those head kicks. All up, out of four events she competed in at AMAC, Hailee was invited three times to join the national squad. Hailee trains at Casey Elite Martial Arts in Cranbourne. Anyone interested in giving her a helping hand to compete internationally next year can contact News Sport at sport@starnewsgroup.com.au.
THE Cranbourne Football Club has laid a golden egg with the appointment of Simon Goosey as its coach for the inaugural South East Football Netball League season in 2015. One of the truly great full-forwards in country football league history, the 46-year-old finalised his one-year agreement with the club on Monday after mutually agreeing, recently, to end five years at the helm of VFL club Frankston. The former Mornington champion, who kicked 1623 goals in 248 games for the Bulldogs and won four premierships as coach, replaces Scott Sutherland, who was sacked by the club last week after it bowed to pressure from within its playing group. Sutherland lasted just one season after the controversial departure of 2013 coach Doug Koop, both moved on after leading the Eagles to losing grand finals. Goosey’s head was still spinning as he spoke to the Gazette on Monday after meeting with Cranbourne president Shane Baker and vice-president Luke King. “This has all only happened in the last week or two,” Goosey, who 13 times kicked 100 goals in a season, said. “I went for a couple of assistant-coaching jobs in the AFL, which didn’t eventuate, so I was really planning on a year off. It was getting a bit late in the piece to be looking for a coaching job, but these are the circumstances that happened. I’m really excited about the job and can’t wait to take training this week and move forward from there.” Goosey said he was aware of, but not all over the Eagles situation over the last two years and was just looking forward to the challenge. “Cranbourne is a club with a history that is rich in success and Shane (Baker) and Luke (King) have impressed me with the direction they are taking the club in,” he said. “It’s a well-run club with a playing group that wants to improve and is really hungry for success and that is what basically got me over the line. “I can’t pass judgement on what’s happened in the past, but all I know is that I need to give my players direction, so they know what is expected at all times. I don’t know a lot about the league and not a lot about our players as yet, this is still fresh, but it does mean I have no preconceived ideas and we can all start from scratch.” The new Eagles’ mentor said he had spoken to the leadership group of Curtis Barker, Marc Holt and Matt Rus, and they were all made clear of what was required. “I’ve met with the leadership group and they understand that the players need to take ownership and have a team first mentality. We’ll work hard, we’ll worry about the process and not the result and ev-
New Cranbourne coach Simon Goosey, left, is welcomed to the Eagles nest by club president Picture: CONTRIBUTED Shane Baker. 132202 ery training session will be done for a reason. There’s no reason why we can’t bring a VFL standard program to the place.” In his time at Frankston, Goosey was a healthy promoter of his players, with Michael Hibberd and Mark Baguley (Essendon), Sam Lloyd (Richmond) and recent rookie draftee, Nick Newman (Sydney) among those that have progressed to a higher level. Goosey said he himself had not given up on the dream of coaching at a higher level. “The club knows that, but I believe you should always be aspiring for a higher level,” he said.
“Whether it be your players, your coaching staff, there’s nothing wrong with having high aspirations and I’ll be promoting the kids, developing the coaching staff and if that leads to bigger things then that’s fantastic.” Goosey said he was also looking forward to working with gun full-forward Marc Holt who, with more than 800 goals to his name, is closing in slowly on his new mentor’s record. “If he kicks too many, we’ll have to throw him down back,” Goosey joked. “We’re a bit of a different breed us full forwards, so I look forward
to working with him and making sure he’s a great target for us up forward.” Baker said the club was delighted to have Goosey on board. “This is a great signing for our club. Simon’s experience and knowledge of the game, along with his undeniable ability to be able to pass that knowledge on and improve our playing group across the whole club, will be invaluable, and we certainly look forward to the positive impact he will make on our players,” Baker said. “We are thrilled that Simon has agreed to join us and we can now focus on looking forward to 2015.”

Pattinson strides on By JARROD POTTER VICTORIAN PREMIER CRICKET Round 9 Twenty20 DANDENONG WELCOMED back in more ways than one, Dandenong (112) all-rounder James Pattinson made his bowling return in the Panthers’ five-wicket Twenty20 loss to Monash Tigers (5/133). Pattinson was a sight for sore eyes as he strode to the bowling crease, after spending the start of the week in Macksville with other Australian and state cricketers to farewell Phillip Hughes. It was the first time Pattinson had wound up and unleashed a barrage of deliveries since March and the quick didn’t fail to make his mark, snaring a wicket from his four overs. Dandenong started with a bang off Brett Forsyth’s (41) blade as the opener started the Dandenong initiative at Central Reserve. The Panthers struggled to find a match-winning partnership as Forsyth longed for someone to survive at the other end. Quick wickets first up left Dandenong in all sorts at 3/15 and the innings never recovered from there as Forsyth’s heroics finally came to an end at 5/79 after hitting out against Melbourne Renegades’ spinner Aaron O’Brien (3/30). Late order flourishes were few and far between as the visitors failed to find the boundary and the Panthers barely crept
past triple figures after their 19 overs. While Monash had four Victorian representatives at the top of the order - Will Sheridan (6), Cameron White (24), Daniel Christian (19) and O’Brien (0) - shots were hammered impressively past Dandenong’s attack by Andrew Chalkley (42 not out), who finished the job for the Tigers as Dandenong’s Twenty20 season opener came to an abrupt end. James Wilcock (2/13) and James Nanopoulos (2/16) were the best of the Panthers’ attack. Dandenong hosted Melbourne Uni on Sunday afternoon for the second Twenty20 of the weekend and will travel to Fitzroy-Doncaster for their third consecutive short form match on Saturday. CASEY-SOUTH MELBOURNE CASEY-South Melbourne (6/139) squandered its best chance yet of points after skittling Ringwood (6/148cc) in their Twenty20 clash at Casey Fields. Chris Hall (3/24) opened the bowling and struck early alongside Simon Black (2/37). A fiery opening stand between Josh Holden (50) and Dan Watson (43) put the Swans in a great position early at 0/100, but the wheels fell off after the duo were dismissed as Casey spun its way to nine short at 6/139. Casey hosts Essendon on Saturday afternoon in Round-11 Twenty20 action. Solid work with bat and ball from Dan Watson still wasn't enough for CaseySouth Melbourne to record their first win of the year. 132086 Picture: JARROD POTTER
Heinz incapable of ketchup By JARROD POTTER DANDENONG DISTRICT CRICKET ASSOCIATION TURF 1 Round 6 (Day 2) HALLAM Kalora Park and Cranbourne notched maximum points in a round where the wheat and chaff were well defined. HALLAM KALORA PARK v HEINZ SOUTHERN DISTRICTS IT all went horribly wrong for Heinz Southern Districts (90 and 91) facing Hallam Kalora Park (173 and 2/9). Heinz could not rouse any resilience in its first innings as its 6/49 overnight was quickly demolished and turned into all out for 90. Hallam had no qualms sending Trevor Davies and his men back in for a second go and the second effort was marginally better... literally as the Cobras earned an extra run over their first innings. William Whyte (7/37) surged through the Heinz batting card as the visitors’ 91 came about mostly through Justin Davis (24) and Matt Cox (20). It left a quick-fire nine for Hallam Kalora Park to earn with outright points on offer, which were smashed by Cory Booth (5 not out). Hallam Kalora Park moves away from the relegation zone with the important 10-point result, moving into eighth on the ladder and will head to Lyndale to finish 2014 while Heinz slips one back to ninth before its battle against Dandenong West. CRANBOURNE v COOMOORA THEY had to wait until 2.15pm, but that would be the only significant downside to Cranbourne’s (4/163dec and 0/2) second outright victory in as many weeks following a complete collapse by Coomoora (56 and 108) at Casey Fields. The only rate Coomoora upped on Saturday was its attrition rate as wickets fell in clumps and at one stage looked like an innings-defeat was likely. Cam Kelly (3/14), Steve Spoljaric (3/36) and Martin Kelly (2/19) left little doubt as to which side was top of the ladder as the Eagles picked off Kangaroos virtually at will. Gutsy batting from Charith Fernando (30) and Lance Baptist (29 not out) were the only bright lights on a dim afternoon for the visitors.

Pictures: JARROD POTTER Mitch Temby (16) ensured the Eagles would have to bat again, but with only a one-run lead it wasn’t going to be a long chase as Ben Maroney (2 not out) struck the match winner off the first ball faced. The win gives Cranbourne a whopping 13-point lead heading into the final round before Christmas against Mordialloc. SPRINGVALE SOUTH v BERWICK TWO Quirks of nature left Berwick (215) licking its wounds as the next generation of Bloods’ batsmen slammed on the winning runs at Alex Nelson Reserve. Ryan Quirk (79) showed just how prodigious he can become as he bunkered down and saw off the Berwick attack. His 206-ball epic had the 17-year-old showing the elder gents how it was done. With a pair of under-17 hundreds already this season, Quirk stepped
up to the next level in his best knock for the Turf-1 side yet as he was the last man to fall after his Herculean feat. Quirk and his brother Dylan (55) piled on 101 for the fifth wicket after the Bloods were left in a precarious spot at 4/49 following an early mauling from the Bears. Their effort turned the tables on Berwick and forced the field to spread at Harold Road, leaving the Quirks to push ahead and take advantage. Dylan would fall to a straightener from Ryan Crawford just after notching his first Turf 1 half-ton this season, leaving it to his younger brother to finish the job. Quirk and captain Craig Slocombe (30) put the remainder on the board before the duo fell just a handful of runs before victory. Berwick will host North Dandenong in the last match of the calendar year.

THERE were no coin flips or races to settle this score. With training, local Twenty20s and a rigid schedule for Cricket Victoria to maintain, Cranbourne and Buckley Ridges were unable to schedule a time this week for their Statewide Twenty20 Cup second round match. The third round match had already been scheduled against Brighton District next week, so a winner had to be found from this week’s match. With both sides keen to advance - as the winner of the metropolitan contest plays on the MCG as Buckley Ridges has achieved twice before the Eagles and Ridges took to Casey Fields on Tuesday night for a bowl off to decide. Herein lies the obvious question: what’s a bowl off? In a move sanctioned by Cricket Victoria, six men from each side run in to try and knock the bails off and the stumps over - with Cranbourne taking the bowl off victory 3-2. Steve Spoljaric, Cam Dinger and “Funky” Miller struck the
pegs for Cranbourne and their efforts were enough to give the Eagles the highly strange victory. Spoljaric was used to this caper, having participated in a couple overseas while in England. “It was normal to me - been involved in a few over the years,” Spoljaric said. “No skill involved whatsoever you’ve just got to bowl the stump and not really anything you can say, the loser is never going to be happy in that situation. It puts Cranbourne into the strange position of not winning a match yet in the cup, but through to the third round, but Spoljaric thinks the Eagles can knock off whoever they face. “The last few Twenty20s we haven’t had Te Ahu (Davis),” Spoljaric said. “He’s had three or four weeks off - he’s an important cog for us and in Twenty20 he’ll lift us 30 per cent as no one hits it as hard as him.” Cranbourne heads into round three of the Statewide Twenty20 Cup to face Brighton District at home on Wednesday from 5.30pm.

Pride’s momentum By RUSSELL BENNETT
WEST GIPPSLAND CRICKET ASSOCIATION REVIEW - ROUND 7 (DAY 1) MOMENTUM is often the irresistible force of cricket, and it seems to be even more effective in games between rivals as fierce as Pakenham and Tooradin. Off the field, mateship rules between the two clubs - particularly their Premier sides. But on the field a fierce battle takes place every time the Lions and Seagulls meet. It’s one of pride. If it seemed all eyes were on the match-up at Toomuc Reserve on Saturday, it’s because they were. It loomed as the closest match-up of the four Premier games on paper and, so far at least, all has gone according to script. After being sent in to bat, the Seagulls got off to a strong start with openers Brenton Adams (28) and skipper Tom Hussey (30) putting on 64 for the opening wicket. But despite promising starts they were both removed within five runs of each other and from 0/63 at one stage the visitors slumped to 6/119. Thanks to a couple of excellent spells of tight, disciplined bowling from Russ Lehman (3/58 from 23 overs) and skipper Jason Williams (1/59 from 20), the Lions were right back into the contest. But there was another twist in the tail (end)... Ben Mantel made a strong 47 for the Gulls in the middle-order but it was Jarred Thompson (27), Ash Adams (33) and Steve Hamill (28 not out) who made a huge impact in the final 10 to 15 overs of the day. Adams and Hamill in particular made good balls look decidedly aver-

It’s only fitting that such an arm wrestle between bat and ball would be so evenly poised at the halfway mark. “It was a battle of momentum and it went that way all day,” Williams said after day one. “They got away and we pegged them back, but one side never dominates a full day, really.” Williams said he knew that once Lehman was brought into the attack, he’d do the job against a dangerous Tooradin middle-order. But Williams’s spin was just as valuable in restricting the visitors. “They were looking comfortable early but then I think we kept them to
25 runs in about 20 overs,” he said. “Russ just bowls that line and length that’s always asking questions of the batsmen.” But Tooradin had enough wickets left in the shed to put the foot down after tea, and Williams said “they batted really smart”. “They had a couple of good hitters at the bottom there and they just found the gaps,” he said. “Ash (Adams) has a good eye and he showed what can happen when you bowl in his area.” Williams said anything around 250 was a par score at Toomuc Reserve, and Tooradin’s 262 fitted that bill. But he added that he’d back his men in to chase it down. The Lions’ batting stocks are strengthened this round with the inform Greg Interlandi making the step
The White Demon to strike FROM three very different paths, a trio of Dandenong Stingrays alumni were given some of the last spots available in next year’s AFL competition. Mitch White, Nick Newman and Jordan Kelly come from dissimilar football backgrounds in recent seasons, but have found the same end goal after earning their places in Wednesday’s AFL Rookie Draft. Finishing off his top-age year at Dandenong, White was taken with pick 20 by the Melbourne Demons, joining former team-mate James Harmes in the Red and Blue. White, a 188cm and 88kg running defender, had rocketed up the recruiters’ tables following a best-and-fairest winning year with the Stingrays and also featuring in two games for Vic Country. White had been highly touted as a prospect by Stingrays’ coach Craig Black who thought the defender had done enough to earn a chance in the big leagues. White joins former teammates Jack Lonie, Tom Lamb (West Coast) and Bailey Dale (Western Bulldogs) on AFL lists for the 2015 season, following a strong year on-field for Dandenong finishing fourth in the TAC Cup competition. Taking his time to improve through the VFL ranks was the second Stingray alumnus to get into the AFL.
up from Sub-District and James Vela taking on the wicket keeper-batsman role. But Williams said the key this week would be “even contributions from top to bottom”. “I’m not expecting hundreds from Russ or Smitty (Chris Smith) - we just want everyone to play their role and I’ll be confident we can get the job done.” Unsurprisingly though, Hussey feels the same about his side’s chances. “Our middle and lower order really batted their arses off,” he said. “Jarred (Thompson) and Benny Mantel really valued their wickets and Ash and Hammer (Hamill) really did the job at the end. “Overall I’d say 262 is definitely a defendable total, but it’s not amazing. “We’ll have to bowl well and I’d back us to do that. “It was really just a good day’s cricket from both sides.” The battle for the Jean-Claude Van Damme Shield resumes on Saturday. In other local Premier scores from across the weekend, Cardinia (9/279) is in a strong position against Emerald, while Kooweerup’s modest 154run first innings was still far too much for a worrying Upper Beaconsfield (9/26) batting line-up. The first day of Beaconsfield’s clash with Merinda Park was washed out. In District division, Pakenham Upper-Toomuc (1/22) is in the box seat against Clyde (106), Devon Meadows (222) has the runs on the board against the Lyndhurst Vikings, and Nar Nar Goon-Maryknoll (6/231 against St Francis Xavier) has started well in its first game since letting young star Josh Lownds make the switch to the Tooradin Premier side.
After his first draft experience reaped no results, former Stingray Nick Newman went about improving his game and making an impact in the VFL - with his local club Frankston Dolphins. 2014 was a breakout year for the wily midfielder as his 18-game season led him to a 24-possession average - highlighted by a whopping 37-touch best-on-ground effort against Box Hill in Round 18. His consistency and stand out performances earned him this year’s Fothergill-Round Medal for the league’s most promising young talent. The accolade is seen as a stepping stone to the AFL - as the last nine medallists have earned spots on an AFL list
after winning it - and Newman proved no different as he was given a chance by the Sydney Swans at pick 35. The last of the Stingrays’ trio to get spot in the AFL already had one for the last three seasons. While he never got his chance to play for Hawthorn in his three years at Waverley Park, former Stingray Jordan Kelly, 21, has been thrown a second chance to earn a longoverdue AFL debut, after selection at pick 23 by the Western Bulldogs. The Dogs would have seen plenty of Kelly in Box Hill’s VFL grand-final loss to Footscray, on the back of a solid 20game season switched between forward and back lines.

CRICKET SCOREBOARD
CHAMPION New Zealander Terror To Love has prevailed after a two-horse war with compatriot Christen Me to win Saturday night’s $100,000 Group 1 Decron Cranbourne Pacing Cup (2555m). The two Kiwi superstars drew away from the field in the final lap, going eye to eye to produce a stunning finish that will long live in the memories of those in attendance. A three-time New Zealand Cup winner, Terror To Love
($3.10) outstayed the Miracle Mile and Hunter Cup winner to win by a head, with Flaming Flutter 20-metres back in third place. Driver Ricky May said a pre-race decision to try and test the $1.60 favourite in the second half of the event paid dividends in the end. “We decided the only way we had a show of beating him (Christen Me) was to try and out-stay him,” May told Harness Racing Victoria postrace.
Terror To Love took his stake earnings to a tick over $2.3million with the win. In the night’s other feature, the $1.20 favourite, Keystone Del, made it 10 wins on the trot with victory in the $50,000 Group 1 Aldebaran Park Bill Collins Trotters Mile (1609m). Keystone Del made it 23 wins from 40 starts and took his prizemoney to beyond $630,000. Harness racing returns to Cranbourne this Saturday with a day meeting.

All things shall yet come to pass CRANBOURNE RSL BOWLS MIDWEEK PENNANT ALL good things must come to an end and after nine in row, the RSL finally lost one, going down to Pakenham on their slick carpet bowling rinks. The team has been bowling very well for a long time, and sometimes you need to be reminded that winning does not happen every week. Ray Chapman’s team scoring the only two points winning by three shots, the other two rinks probably wished they were elsewhere. Results: Pakenham 72 d Cranbourne RSL 51 (D. Meulman/M. Hodges/H. Rogers/R. Chapman won 19-16. R. Bligh/C. Butler/T. Bonney/J. Spencer lost 17-28. A. Pichard/M. McIntyre/G. Dore/Y. Van der Wees lost 15-28). SATURDAY - Division 2 After a promising first half where the scores were pretty close, the RSL fell away over the concluding ends to go down to Berwick. Walter Brannan’s team hanging on to score a valuable two points. The team seemed to struggle in the windy conditions, and looked a bit flat after two great wins in the previous two weeks. Three out of the four teams winning was a good result for the club. Results: Berwick 91 d Cranbourne RSL 71 (M. Cassano/B. Graham/K. Walker/W. Brannan won 25-23. F. Scicluna/J. Carretero/W. Ballard/K. Hocking lost 17-20. P. Males/J. Black/Y. Van der Wees/R. Chapman lost 15-23. R. Bligh/R. Crawford/J. Spencer/M. Watkinson lost 14-25). Division 5 The team returned to the winners circle with a comfortable 16-shot win over Waverley Golf. John Vowles team again doing the damage winning by a huge 21 shots, with Steve Hickson and Michael Ryan’s team also scoring good wins. There should be a few more wins coming up in the second half of the season. Results: Cranbourne RSL 95 d Waverley Golf 79 (I. Maat/G. Dore/K. McLeod/J. Vowles won 35-14 king of the rinks. J. Grant/K. Hickson/R. Elliott/S. Hickson won 23-20. K. Currie/D. Meulman/M. McIntyre/M. Ryan won 18-15. D. Angee/M. Bobetic/B. Mason/M. Hodges lost 19-30). Division 8 (3) After a couple of lean weeks, team three finally put it all together and scored a good 11-shot win over Narren Warren. Percy Leake’s side were pretty happy after finally getting a win, its been a long time since Round 1. Dependable Doug Ambrose won again well done. Results: Cranbourne RSL 46 d Narre Warren 35 (J. Hart/H. Reefman/R. Wilson/D. Ambrose won 27-18. A. Pichard/H. Mills/M. Pearson/P. Leake won 19-17). Division 8 (4) Team four on the back of Arthur Underwood’s side five shot win stormed into the top four with a close win over Noble Park. Bryan Eagle’s side again winning making it four wins in past five games. Results: Cranbourne RSL 45 d Noble Park 37 (P. Campion/M. Wallace/L. Meagher/A. Underwood won 24-19. M. Smith/G. Jones/P. Zimmerman/B. Eagle won 21-18).

Parkers’ loss - it’s a Clayton’s win HAMPTON PARK BOWLS HAMPTON Park started the second round of pennant with a draw and a loss. Division 1 at home against Clayton, drew on shots but lost two rinks. This counts as a Parker’s loss on the Premiership ladder. Geoff Ampt, Ann Westwell, Helen Lambert and Denise Eastick led all day to win by 17 shots (26-9) but Heather Naismith, Chris Hendrie, Andrew Brandolin and Ellen Smith lost 1525 while Dot Carr, Jim Westwell, Shane Collins and Neville Hendrie lost 17-24.

Results: Keysborough (2) 14-67 d Hampton Park (2) 2-59. Saturday brought new challengers for Hampton Park, especially in Divisions 2 and 4. Both teams played the top of the ladder in their divisions, Mulgrave Country Club. Division 2 at home had a hard fight all day and finally won by 14 shots. Steve Barnes, Chris Hendrie, Andrew Brandolin and Warwick Hardy lost 16-24, and Mort Smith, Neville Hendrie, Seam McDonald and Ken Cobden were unlucky to lose 14-15. Geoff Ampt, John Nun-

Van Hout, Stan Hatch and Larry Simpson won 21-14. Chris Barnes, Ellen Smith, Lionel Williams and Peter Hayden were 19 shots down mid-game and stormed home for a disappointing loss 21-22 while Aaron Ottaway, John Wright, Denise Eastick and Helen Lambert lost 17-20. Results: Hampton Park (2) 14-79 d Mulgrave CC (5) 4-72. Division 6 had another tough day on the tricky greens at Ferntree Gully, winning only one rink. Vince Kovacic, Marion Battalgia, Brian Diaper and Ray Wood won 21-16, while Gerry Cox, Trevor Harbright, Bob Nicol and Ian Kitt lost 18-22.

Potter (sub), Bruce Pointon and Ron Beverly won 17-15, but Keith McCarthy, Margaret Baker, M. Stephenson (sub) and Rudi Oost fell away late in the game to lost 12-24. Results: Cardinia Waters (2) 1239 d Hampton Park (4) 2-29.
Victory lost on trotters CRANBOURNE BOWLS THE club was buzzing on Saturday evening after all five teams recording wins. Cranbourne 1 defeated Armadale by nine shots, Cranbourne 2 defeated Pakenham by 42 shots, Cranbourne 3 defeated Cardinia Waters by 6 shots, Cranbourne 4 defeated Burden Park by 10 shots and Cranbourne 7 defeated Carrum by 7 shots. Club Chief, Ken Fulton was so excited and overcome with emotion with the clubs’ victory after the game that he momentarily forgot where he was and at one stage he was giving a victory speech to the Harness racing club. DIVISION 1 Playing in winter like conditions at Armadale, Cranbourne went on to win by nine shots to give them a long-awaited victory. Once again the ‘two Lyns’ Lynne Wood and Lyn Whalley played some great bowls to set up a 14-shot win for team mates Ian Barrenger and skip Steve Arthur. It must be a Lyn thing, but skip Lyn Quigg and his team of Gascoigne, Byrne and Thomas also had a good day with a five-shot win. Results: Cranbourne 86 d Armadale 77 (R. Travica 18/24, L. Quigg 23/18, M. Bland 20/24, S. Arthur 25/11). This week Cranbourne plays ladder leader Mulgrave Country Club at home.
DIVISION 2 “Cranny two is on the charge” That was the victory cry from skip Neil Fell straight after the game, ending the day with a massive 42-shot victory over old rivals Pakenham in front of a good number of onlookers at home on Saturday. Popular club member Jerry Dudink had an exceptional day of bowls with the crowd yelling out his name at every end. He was well backed by his team mates of Peter De Lisle and Joe Byrne who with skip Hunt went on to win by 17 shots. Matt Stevens playing third to skip Rob Reid drew the perfect bowl to give them victory on the last end of the day. Results: Cranbourne 88 d Pakenham 46 (N. Fell 20/10, M. Boltong 24/11, R. Reid 20/18, G. Hunt 24/7). DIVISION 3 Skip John Mulder out talked and outplayed his opponents to record a convincing 17-shot win to ensure overall victory for Cranbourne. He was very pleased with his team of Sofio Raiti, Harry Van Soest and David Wilson. Skip and club legend Stan Burnett continued his good form with a 12-shot win supported by his team of Sandra Mueller, Tony Collins and Ron Shields. After the game Tony Collins raved about his skip Burnett. “We all gave Stan a ten-out-of-ten score for his game, he truly is a
legend of the club who played the perfect game of bowls today”. Also another past Club champion Bill Dunn returned to the club after a long absence and got through the game ok leading for skip Tony Whalley. Results: Cranbourne 81 d Cardinia Waters 75 (J. Mulder 30/13, S. Burnett 23/11, K. Bowler 11/27, T. Whalley 17/24). DIVISION 4 Playing at home on synthetic in blustering conditions was no problem for Skip Scott De Piazza and his team of Pat Boltong, Griffiths, and Lyndsay Coate who won by 13 shots to set up victory to win overall by 10 shots. Skips David O’Reilly and Cheryl Wright both had close wins. Results: Cranbourne 81 d Burden Park 71 (C. Wright 24/20, D. O’Reilly 22/20, S. Venville 11/20, S. De Piazza 24/11). DIVISION 7 A close seven-shot win against Carrum was a great result, set up by some great bowls played by skip David Wright and his team of Watts, Hanks and Coley. Jimmy Hanks had a huge smile on his face after the game, a sure sign that he was pleased with the victory and his effort. Results: Cranbourne 74 d Carrum 67 (T. Scranton 24/23, D. Wright 27/16, B. Romeon 9/14, R. Tormey 14/14).

Risking life and... limb? IT’S the sport we all trained for from a young age, but never knew about. Arborists, tree doctors and pruners alike descended on Lynbrook’s Banjo Paterson Reserve to take part in the annual Australia Tree Climbing Championships. It’s been around since the 1970s - probably starting off as a bar bet between a pair of nimble footed arborists in America. The champion will be an expert in the five disciplines of tree climbing - throw line, foot locking event, a speed climbing event, aerial rescue and work climb. The event was held Saturday with winners booking their tickets to the international championships held in Florida next year.

and the market at which it’s aimed most buyers will be satisfied with the dynamics. Yaris is approaching total sales of 200,000 in Australia and having spent a week in the latest model we can understand why people just keep coming back to them. It’s smooth, reasonably quite and pleasant enough to drive without being in any way exciting. The upgraded Yaris hatch range is covered by cappedprice servicing at a maximum of $130 per service, which again makes it very financially attractive. You get a lot of car with an excellent reputation for reliability for comfortably under $20,000 on the road. The Toyota range is available for test drive at Berwick Toyota, 751 Princes Highway, Berwick, on 9707 4455; Pakenham Toyota, 33 Commercial Drive, Pakenham, on 5945 1777; Cranbourne Toyota, 284 South Gippsland Highway, Cranbourne, on 5955 1111.

noise, vibration and harshness. More direct and linear steering response has been gained by new suspension calibration. All Yaris models now have a reversing camera and there’s automatic flashing of the hazard lamps under hard braking is fitted. The Yaris hatch has seven airbags and crash avoidance or minimisation features include vehicle stability and traction control, and ABS brakes with electronic brake-force distribution (EBD) and brake assist (BA). Yaris now has telescopic adjustment of the steering-column, previously it only gave you the option to adjust height by way of tilting it. Any feature that makes the driver more comfortable obviously adds safety. Yaris has had its body strengthened as part of this midlife makeover, it does have a reasonably solid feel and intrusion of noise and vibration into the cabin is noticeably lower than than previously. Performance from the 1.3-litre engine used in this entry level model is marginal, which is perfectly acceptable if there only one or two in the car and not driving up too many hills. The gearchange action is fine so working at the correct ratios is no hassle. We haven’t sampled an auto. Fuel consumption was in the eight to 10 litres per 100 kilometres range around town, which is higher than usual in this day and age. But the car is getting on in years and presumably bigger things are coming. On the freeway we got the consumption below seven litres per 100. Handling is safe but not exactly inspiring. Given the price of the Yaris

TOYOTA Yaris has been given a big facelift, and has extra equipment at little or no added cost. It’s doing a nice job of backing up big brother Corolla in the sales race (Corolla looks like being number one again this year) but Yaris may well be all that many smart buyers need, particularly if only ever used to carry one or two people. Others find that the Yaris can be used as a family car when the kids are young. One thing these people demand is back doors, so the three-door Yaris hatch has been pulled out of the range. The Yaris model names have been revised by the marketing department. The range now starts with the 1.3-litre Ascent, the car we tested. It now has 15-inch steel wheels instead of 14-inch. Toyota says the additional equipment fitted on the Ascent is valued at more than $2000, yet it has kept the price steady at $15,690 for the five-speed manual and $17,290 with auto transmission. Our review was done in a manual. The Yaris SX powered by a 1.5-litre engine, has had its price increased by $400 to $17,790 (manual) and $19,390 (automatic). Toyota says it now has more than $1000 of new features, foglamps, rear and side privacy glass and a new design of wheel covers. Finally, the topline auto-only Toyota Yaris ZR has been upgraded with auto-levelling LED headlights, a rear spoiler and diffuser, side skirts and Toyota Link connected mobility. It has more than $2000 of extra equipment but is priced only $1300 higher at $22,690. When we opened the story by saying the Yaris has had a ‘big’ facelift that was a literal statement. Big radiator grilles are all the rage at the moment, and the little Yaris hatch has one of the biggest and baddest of them all. There’s an upmarket touch in the new grille as well. Lexus is the prestige division of Toyota and the revised Yaris shares some of its frontal shape style with the recently launched Lexus NX hybrid and RC coupe. That can do the tiddler no harm at all. Changes to the interior are mainly in the trim colours to give it a brighter look but is still on the plain side to our eyes. Yaris has a 6.1-inch display audio screen that provides touch, drag and flick control of the type we are using in virtually all smartphones and tablets. A telephone remote is installed on the position on the steering wheel, and the stereo now has six speakers rather than four. Unseen, but very much appreciated, the Yaris hatch has a stiffer body shell to reduce
