tigate the blaze has given a statement to police. Detectives have urged anyone who saw a person or car entering or leaving the reserve around 11.45pm to come forward. “It is a shocking crime and it would have been extremely distressing for the CFA members,” Sen Sgt Bailey said.

A DEAD body found sprawled in the back seat of a burnt-out car in a Eumemmerring reserve on Thursday night was left unrecognisable by the flames. Detective Senior Sergeant Stuart Bailey said there was no doubt the “shocking crime” was a murder. It’s understood the owner of the 2011 SV6 red Holden Commodore is a 40-year-old Asian man from Doveton, who is known to police and has a “history of drug involvement”. It is unknown whether the victim was the owner of the car. Emergency services were called to the fire at Olive Road Reserve by witnesses around 11.50pm on Thursday, where the car had been dumped next to a children’s playground and was concealed from Frawley Road by the Jan Bateman Pavilion. Homicide detectives are awaiting results from an autopsy conducted on Friday afternoon after the body was extracted about 9am. “Given the nature of the injuries, we won’t be able to identify him through facial features,” Sen Sgt Bailey said. “The only chances are perhaps his hands haven’t been totally burnt that we may get a fingerprint, but having a look at him, that’s probably unlikely. “I think at this point in time we’re really relying on DNA and dental records to try and identify him.” He said police did not know whether the victim was murdered at the reserve or at another location.

Air disaster tributes By LACHLAN MOORHEAD TRIBUTES have flowed in to the News for the Casey nurse who died in last week’s plane crash in the French Alps. Carol Friday, 68, worked as a registered nurse and midwife for the City of Casey. She and her 29-year-old son Greig were two of the 150 passengers and crew who perished when the Germanwings Airbus A320 went down in the mountains halfway through its 90-minute journey from Barcelona to Dusseldorf. A Marseille prosecutor on Thursday night said it appeared the plane had been crashed deliberately. It’s believed German citizen Andreas
Lubitz, 28, was left in sole control of the plane after the captain left the cockpit. He then refused to re-open the door and allegedly initiated the plane’s tragic fatal descent, according to media reports. A series of tributes were left to the Friday family on the News Facebook page in the wake of last Wednesday’s tragedy. Katrina was among several who shared her thoughts. “Thoughts and prayers with the family and friends,” she wrote. Another user, Shelley, wrote that she hoped Carol and Greig “held onto each other and did not suffer”. Last Wednesday Foreign Minister Julie Bishop read a statement to Parliament on behalf of the Fridays.
“Our family is in deep disbelief and crippled with sadness and would like to ask for privacy,” the statement read. “Carol was a loving mother of two, a devoted wife to her husband Dave and a sister to three brothers. “Carol was a registered nurse, midwife and maternal and child health nurse, most recently working for the City of Casey. “She was a talented artist and enjoyed spending time creating with her local art group. She loved to travel and has seen many of the world’s greatest sights. “Carol loved life! She enjoyed every minute with her family and friends.” It’s understood Greig was a mechanical engineer who studied at Monash University and was due to turn 30 on 23 April.

He and his mum were enjoying a few weeks’ holiday together before Greig began work in Europe. “He (Greig) also loved to travel and had just completed a course for teaching English as a foreign language, which he was hoping to do in France in the coming year,” the statement said. “Greig was a man who loved others and life with a full heart!” The City of Casey offered its condolences to the family last Thursday. “The City of Casey was incredibly saddened to learn about the tragic loss of our colleague and friend Carol Friday and her son Greig,” a council spokesperson said. “Our thoughts are with the family at this time.”

Police have released images of the items in the hope that someone can recognise them. No owner has yet come forward and anyone who may have information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or they can file a confidential report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au.
Police are still looking for the owner of a stolen trailer.
Woman allowed to keep car so she can leave abusive husband A MAGISTRATE has urged a woman to leave her husband and allowed her to keep her car licence. The unusual decision was made after the woman was caught speeding, talking on her mobile phone and driving while suspended. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said he couldn’t leave the Endeavour Hills woman without a car given she was the victim of an historically abusive domestic relationship. “If you have to leave suddenly, then you can’t... I could be locking you into a position I don’t want to.”
“I don’t want to make an order on your licence against your safety.” The woman had pleaded guilty to travelling 77 kilometres per hour in a 60 km/h zone while holding a mobile phone to her ear on 7 January. Her driver’s licence had been suspended for the past nine months. The accused told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court last Monday that she was searching for a lost dog at the time. She said she feared she would be kicked out of her mother’s home for letting the dog out.
“I was in an abusive relationship and had found somewhere else to stay,” said. “I let that dog out and lost my chance to stay there. “Now I’m back with my (abusive) ex-partner. “I took the risk (of driving while suspended) knowing if I didn’t find the dog, I wouldn’t have a place to stay.” Mr Vandersteen urged the woman to leave the abusive relationship “particularly if you have alternative accommodation”. She was fined $500. - CAM LUCADOU-WELLS

A 19-YEAR-OLD pregnant woman thought she was going to die as her de-facto partner throttled her in their Endeavour Hills basement. The incident on 27 February ignited when her 21-year-old partner - Ammanuel El Kotta threw a pepper shaker against a wall, held her by the hair and slapped her with an open hand, a court was told last Monday. Police prosecutor First Constable Tess Davison told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court that El Kotta then held his hand over the victim’s mouth, telling her to stop screaming and suffocating her. El Kotta then grabbed her around the throat for two or three seconds before letting go. The victim ran to the bedroom and rang triple zero. “The victim said while (El Kotta) had his hand on her mouth and throat, she was in fear of her life,” First Const Davison said. The victim told police that
El Kotta “had a look in his eyes that he wanted to kill her”. He told police in an interview that the victim provoked him, that he had given her “numerous warnings before he retaliated”, First Const Davison said. He held his hand to her mouth because he wanted her to “be quiet and shut up,” he told police. He admitted handling her neck would have made the victim “scared, stressed and worried”. Defence lawyer Nadine Daniel said the complainant had said “quite nasty things” about his partially-paralysed mother - who assumed a “revered position” in El Kotta’s Iraqi culture. “Without trying to place blame on the victim, the relationship has been quite volatile.” Ms Daniel said her remorseful client, “horrified in hearing what he has done”, had placed himself on a men’s behavourialchange course waiting-list. During the three-year relationship, the couple had “been
through a lot together”. El Kotta wanted to “work on the relationship” with the couple’s first child on the way. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen, in saying the behaviour was at a “very high level” of risk, ordered El Kotta be assessed for a community corrections order. The order would include a men’s behavioural change program, counselling and treatment to “challenge (El Kotta’s) thinking”, Mr Vandersteen said. “By saying she provoked you and you gave her warnings you’d behave in that way... why didn’t you walk away? “What you said wasn’t logical. You can’t blame the victim for your behaviour.” He noted El Kotta’s young age, lack of prior convictions, co-operation with police, his guilty plea and remorse. El Kotta was placed on an interim family violence intervention order barring him from visiting within 200 metres of the couple’s home.
MP to be asked for asylum help GREATER Dandenong Council intends to co-opt Liberal Senator Mitch Fifield to act as a go-between in its campaign for more federal resources for helping asylum seekers living in the community. Last Monday community services director Mark Doubleday said a statement advocating for the cause had been signed by Greater Dandenong and
other Victorian councils. The council was approaching Senator Fifield to “seek an audience” with the government to present the statement, he said. The Mentone-based senator was chosen as the closest federal Liberal MP to Greater Dandenong, Mr Doubleday told the council. According to the councils, asylum seekers are dispropor-
tionately reliant on charities, agencies and volunteers due to a shortage of federal resources. Last week Senator Fifield appeared to support the status quo. He said the government provided a range of support services for recently settled migrants, including for people seeking to “resolve their immigration status” and refugees.

Class smash ALL AGuESsic
By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE State Government will demolish the derelict Endeavour Hills Secondary College buildings as soon as possible after a local councillor slammed rampant graffiti at the site, and a suspicious fire ripped through the abandoned facility last year. A 14-year-old Cranbourne boy has been charged with arson and a 15-year-old from Endeavour Hills arrested in relation to the fire at the abandoned high school gym last November. The Cranbourne boy, who was arrested in January, appeared in court earlier this month and was bailed to appear again in May. The Endeavour Hills boy was released without charge. A person was seen fleeing the fire around 11.30pm on Thursday 20 November at the disused building, which the City of Casey has a partial stake in. Fourteen trucks attended the blaze, which took at least an hour to bring under control and a further three hours to extinguish completely. The charge came as Casey Council resolved earlier this month to write to Education Minister James Merlino expressing its concerns about rampant vandalism at the disused facility, following a motion raised by Cr Rafal Kaplon. Last week Deputy Premier Merlino said he had asked the Department of Education to organise the “demolition” of the former college’s buildings as a “matter of urgency”. The minister’s response

Graffiti adorns the walls and beer cans litter the floor inside one of the abandoned Endeavour Hills Secondary College buildings. comes as Cr Kaplon slammed the Department for having “done nothing” with the site in the last two years. “The community has expectations which the department is not meeting, it is no longer good enough to simply close a school, let it fall apart and pose real safety issues for surrounding houses - there has already been a fire which destroyed the gymnasium and posed a risk to surrounding homes,” Cr Kaplon told the News. “More importantly this is just a tip of the iceberg, there are many more similarly closed schools sites across Casey and Victoria which cause surrounding communities to become rundown and an eyesore - it is time the Victorian Government reconsidered its current policy on how to handle condemned or closed down schools.” Mr Kaplon said previous re-
quests on behalf of council to rent out the buildings had been knocked back by the Department. As part of its motion council will write to Casey police Inspector Paul Breen about its concerns, and Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan and Holt MP Anthony Byrne will also be drawn on for support. Cr Kaplon’s fellow Four Oaks councillor Rosalie Crestani said the vandalism might already equate to “thousands, if not millions of dollars’ worth of damage.” Low enrolments led to the closure of Endeavour Hills Secondary College in 2012, one of the smallest and oldest high schools in the region. In July Labor pledged to provide Hallam Senior College’s Sports Academy with partial access to the old campus if it won the state election.

WHAT’S IN A NAME DELVES INTO THE FASCINATING STORIES AND PERSONALITIES BEHIND SOME OF THE CITY’S BEST KNOWN STREET NAMES. THIS WEEK THE JOURNAL LOOKS AT THARLE STREET, NAMED AFTER ONE OF THE DISTRICT'S PIONEERING FAMILIES.
Family had the meat trade in their blood THARLE Street, Dandenong, named after a family who settled in the area, runs off Cheltenham Road, between Sinclair and Bennet streets. Barton Barnaby Tharle and Louisa Jane Bradley migrated to Australia shortly after they wed on the Isle of Wight off the south coast of England in 1863. They settled on acreage in Dandenong-Frankston Road, Dandenong, in early 1864 and later moved to McCrae Street. They had nine children, including Barton Barnaby junior who became a farmer and auctioneer. He had seven children with wife Emily Jane Hunt and ran slaughter yards in Power Road - now Doveton - and a butcher’s business in Dandenong. In 1919 they brought their home in
The Tharle family in the 1920s, Frederick, Leo Matthews, Mary, Clement, Barton, Louisa, Walter and Arthur Buttler.
WHAT’S IN A NAME? Macpherson Street from Mr Macpherson who had run his private Dandenong Grammar School from the premises. Their eldest child Barton - known as Bart - married Alva Sayers, who played with the Dandenong Croquet Club for 40 years. Bart started in the meat trade at age 14 and with brothers Frank and Victor (Vic) ran a butchery business in Foster Street after their father and uncles sold their butcher’s business in Lonsdale Street. When Frank and Vic decided to leave the business, Bart carried on and at one stage operated four shops. Vic served on the Dandenong Council for several years.
Frank helped his son Bill run a butcher shop in Kirkham Road and their brother Leslie (Les) also worked at the butcher’s shop in Foster Street. Their sister Mabel Louise (Mabe) was an enthusiastic knitter and made baby clothes for Wallara’s opportunity shop. In her early life Florence (Floss)
was employed at Alf Owen’s Hardware Store in Lonsdale Street and as a cashier at the family butcher shop in Foster Street. She cared for her mother in their Macpherson Street home until she died. Brother Brad Tharle ran a taxi service and delivered the first patient

to the new Dandenong hospital. Edwin (Ted) was a keen footballer with the early Dandenong KSP football team and became an apprentice carpenter with Bob Boote when he left school, building many homes in the district. He married Elva and settled in Hammond Road a few doors away from Frank before moving to Macpherson Street. At one stage there were five Tharle family homes in a row in Macpherson Street. Rodney, the only child of Elva and Ted, used to shoot rats at the tip across the road from school with an air rifle and learnt to swim at the Dandy Baths. He met his wife Judith at a dance at Dandenong Town Hall. They married at the Presbyterian Church in Dandenong in 1962 and set up in Cornelius Street, Dandenong.
LOOKING BACK 100 years ago 1 April 1915 The War Recreation Room at Broadmeadows Camp An Appeal for Funds Letter to Editor from State Government House SIR, - At a meeting of the Victorian League at Melbourne Town Hall it was decided that the League should invite subscriptions from its members and from the general public towards the cost of erecting a Recreation Room capable of holding 2,000 men at Broadmeadows Camp. I write to urge on the patriotic community of Victoria the duty they
owe to the men of Australia by providing facilities for recreation during the coming winter. Victorians have nobly responded to appeals of a more general nature. They are now asked to do something for the benefit of their own sons and brothers who are training. Yours Sincerely, Margaret Stanley. 50 years ago 24 March 1965 We’re News!

of both demographic change in Australia and economic ideology. Population growth and an ageing community is expected to increase the cost of health and community services.

Dr Loizou a Phlebologist (special interest in leg vein disease) has been treating leg veins of all types in the Narre Warren area for 13 years. “We all know what varicose veins look like. We all know that they can be unsightly and can cause lots of pain and may lead to serious complications but what is not commonly known is that stripping surgery is not the only alternative for their treatment”. Modern minimally invasive techniques such as Direct Vision Sclerotheraphy, Ultrasound Guided Sclerotherapy, Endovenous Laser Ablation and Modified Ambulatory Phlebectomy are used in various combinations to treat leg veins and negate the need for hospitalization, general anaesthetic and long post-operative recovery. These procedures have a high safety profile are effective and affordable and patients suffering with leg vein problems such as varicose veins or even venous ulcers should arrange for an initial consultation where their treatment can be discussed. For further informaton visit our website www.veinsolutions.com.au or ring Narre Warren 8790 3352 or main rooms in Kew 9855 0990 for a consultation.

children Jess had joined the Australian Action on Pre-eclampsia (AAPEC) group, but it wasn’t until last April, when she was comfortable enough to share Hailey’s story, that Jess felt she could be more active in the movement. “It did take me two years to write Hailey’s story on paper, it was hard but last April it was her birthday and I felt I needed to do more,” said Jess, now the publicity officer for AAPEC. “I messaged the vice-president and president of AAPEC - we had met in hospital - and I said I wanted to do more. “A couple of months later the publicist position came up and I thought, I’ve got to do this.” Visit APEC’s Facebook page at www.facebook. com/pages/Australian-Action-on-Pre-eclampsia-IncAAPEC/7027945126.
Legal funding flip welcomed COMMUNITY legal centres are celebrating a stunning reversal of hefty funding cuts by the Federal Government. Springvale-Monash Legal Service and Casey-Cardinia Community Legal Service were each bracing for $200,000 in cuts over the next two years until the backflip.
“It’s great news,” a relieved SMLS executive director Kristen Wallwork said. “Before they announced it, we’d been doing some future planning and looking at staffing (cuts).” CCCLS principal solicitor Vera Hardiman had the pleasing
task of cancelling plans to move out of its Narre Warren office last Thursday. “We had started pricing equipment ahead of the move,” she said. “I had to quickly tell the landlord we’re not going to move out (in June) after all.”

IT WAS two years before Jess Yolland put pen to paper. It’s now almost three years to the day since the Casey mum lost her baby daughter. Jess’s story began in 2012 when she was 23 weeks pregnant and diagnosed with preeclampsia. The disorder claimed the life of her daughter, stillborn on 12 April that same year. Her name was Hailey. “A lovely nurse came and escorted me into an ultrasound room and looking up at the screen I could see her (Hailey),” Jess said. “The nurse then told me, ‘I can’t seem to find her heartbeat. But I’ll have a doctor come in and double-check as I don’t usually perform ultrasounds’. “I then was introduced to a Dr Kelly. After looking at the
ultrasound, she told me ‘I’m sorry Jess, your baby has died’. “My stomach dropped, my heart dropped, my tears dropped, it was like this big truck had just hit me and I’d been robbed.” Two years after she and her partner, Dan, lost Hailey, Jess sat down to write about her tragedy. Pre-eclampsia is a pregnancy disorder resulting in high blood pressure, puffiness, and an excessive amount of protein in one’s urine which can result in impaired liver function and kidney dysfunction. The illness can also be lethal for the mother. It wasn’t long after Hailey’s death that Jess again fell pregnant and was again afflicted with pre-eclampsia. At 29 weeks, Blake was born by emergency Caesarean. Between giving birth to her

What does Easter mean to a sincere Christian???? Easter has long been considered by ‘non Christians’, as a time for ‘the Easter bunny’ who brings ‘Easter eggs’ and, of course, an Easter holiday. Because of time changes and poor record keeping in the early centuries, (It is considered by most, that Christ was actually born AD) it is doubtful that we can be absolutely sure when the Jesus was crucified, but it is at Easter that Christians celebrate for the following reasons, based on the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ …. •ThedeathofJesusChrist The Bible tells us that by one 1 man (Adam) sin came into the world and because of sin, death. 12
Therefore, just as through one man sin entered the world, and death through sin, and thus death spread to all men, because all sinned ……. 15But the free gift is not like the offense. For if by the one man’s offense many died, much more the grace of God and the gift by the grace of the one Man, Jesus Christ, abounded to many. (Romans 5:12,15)
Every human being inherits the sin nature which is passed down through Adam’s DNA and sooner or later every young child will sin without being taught it or provoked to it …. It is in our nature. We have all lied, cheated, lusted, coveted, stolen etc so how would we stand before a righteous God on the Day of Judgment??? The price for our sin is eternal separation from God, but the good news is, that Jesus, the Son of God paid the price for us. He suffered terribly for us and experienced separation from His Father so that we would not have to suffer in Hell and that we could be restored to right relationship with our heavenly Father. 16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. 17For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. (John 3:16,17) •Hisburial Many skeptics claim that Jesus never actually died on the Cross, but His burial was strictly supervised by the Pharisees and a guard over Jesus’ tomb was given by the Roman governor Pontius Pilate …. 62
On the next day, which followed the Day of Preparation, the chief priests and Pharisees gathered together to Pilate, 63saying, “Sir, we remember, while He was still alive, how that deceiver said, ‘After three days I will rise.’ 64Therefore command that the tomb be made secure until the third day, lest His disciples come by night and steal Him away, and say to the people, ‘He has risen from the dead.’ So the last deception will be worse than the first.” 65Pilate said to them, “You have a guard; go your way, make it as secure as you know how.” 66So they went and made the tomb secure, sealing the stone and setting the guard. (Matthew 27:62ff) Clearly, if Jesus claims were false, Christianity would never have been born. Presentation of the body of Jesus Christ would have put an end to the propagation of His Gospel. TheResurrectionofJesusChrist…. Without the Resurrection of Jesus, there would be no proof that indeed His death atoned (paid) for the sins of the whole world. Those who believe that Jesus has paid the price for their sins have His righteousness imputed (given) to them. It (righteousness) shall be imputed to us who believe in Him who raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead, 25who was delivered up (crucified) because of our offenses, and was raised (resurrected) because of our justification. (Romans 4:24f) if Christ is not risen, your faith is futile; you are still in your sins! 18Then also those who have died in Christ have perished. 19If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable. 20 But now Christ is risen from the dead, and has become the firstfruits of those who have fallen asleep. 21For since by man came death, by Man also came the resurrection of the dead. 22For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive. (1 Corinthians 15:17ff) Christians praise God for the forgiveness of sin, the promise of eternal life and the availability of relationship with God …. Something indeed to celebrate.

Son shines for father By CASEY NEILL
John Fabian with son Luke immediately after the presentation and one week before he suffered a fatal heart attack.
JOHN Fabian watched his son Luke accept the trophy for best original EH Holden on his behalf at last year’s Rotary Club of Endeavour Hills All Holden Car Show. The Blind Bight man suffered a fatal heart attack just one week later. Luke, 12, will present the same award to this year’s winner on Sunday 12 April. Berwick man Steve Marsden, who’ll be showing his FX Holden at the event, organised the tribute. “Luke’s rapt, he’s really looking forward to it,” he said. “It’ll mean the world to him. “He’s had a hard year and a half. He lost his mum about a year beforehand. She passed away from breast cancer.
“We’ve tried to do what we can for him.” Mr Marsden said John was very well known in the car scene. “He owned a big collection of EHs so he was in several different car clubs and went to a lot of shows,” he said. Luke shares his dad’s passion. “I think he’s probably the smartest 11-year-old I’ve ever met,” Mr Marsden said. “He’s taught me things about cars I’ve never known. “He learned everything from his dad. He used to do all the polishing for his dad before all the car shows. He’d get all the cars cleaned and ready for him. “I’m sure he can’t wait to work on the cars and drive them himself on day. “I took him for a drive in the FX a few
nights ago and he was so happy because he used to go out every weekend with his dad.” The Rotary Club of Endeavour Hills event raises funds for aid, including the club’s flagship project Disaster Aid Australia. They create survival packs complete with a tent, blankets and other items needed by people after a major disaster. The 7th Annual Dandenong Valley All Holden Street Car Show will be held from 9am to 3pm on Sunday 12 April at Greaves Reserve, Bennet Street, Dandenong. Entry is $5 for adults and is free for children aged under 16 years. There’ll be activities for children, food vendors and more.
Make this a date for Holden car passion DANDENONG man Eddie Dobbs’ passion for cars has shaped his life in more ways than one. The motor mechanic runs JD Motors in Dandenong North alongside his wife Margaret. “She invited me on our first date to a motor race meeting at Calder (Raceway),” he said. “I’ve just loved cars since before I could walk or talk.” His 1956 FE Holden has taken him to race tracks around the country and will be on display at the Rotary Club of Endeavour Hills All Holden Car Show on 12 April. “The car was originally built up by Graham Blanchard at Blanchard Motors in Springvale,” Mr Dobbs
Shop robbers flee on foot TWO men described as African in appearance raided a grocery store in Doveton. On Monday 16 March the attendant noticed two men entering the store along Autumn Place, Doveton, between 11pm and midnight. The men returned again about 1.40am with weapons and allegedly threatened the attendant and demanded he hand over cash. The cashier surrendered the money and the men ran off towards Power Street. The Dandenong Embona Taskforce is investigating the incident.
Woman hit in robbery bid
said. He’s been its proud owner since 1984. “We’re kind of the custodians because it’s a part of Australian motor racing history and it should be preserved,” he said. “But it’s a race car and I think it should be out there racing. “The people, wherever it goes, just love it because very few people race early Holdens. “There’s rarely this style of race car. It has the original style engine and gearbox. It has drum brakes, three on the tree...”. Mr Dobbs has attended the event as a spectator. “It’s an impressive day,” he said.

C REAL ESTATE TESTIMONIAL THE day that Nik knocked on our door and introduced himself, we just knew straight away that he was going to be the one ... to sell our house, of course! I cannot hold an agent more highly than I can hold Nik. Besides being professional, he was genuine and didn’t beat around the bush. From day one he was patient with us as we pushed our first open back a few times due to painting, de-cluttering (30 years of clutter) and other jobs. He never pestered us, he gave us time and support.
He was by our side through the whole process from re-arranging furniture to photos etc. We set the price we wanted ... and he assured we would meet that plus more! I can tell you that he surely delivered. Three other agents pushed for us to have an auction which we did not want, and greatly undervalued our home. Nik got us $55,000 more than what the other agents said we were looking at. That’s absolutely amazing and comforting. Corey and Varun also played a big part side by
side with Nik and we can’t commend them enough. If there is anyone who wants to sell or buy, The C Real Estate are the only ones I will recommend. They listen and work with their clients, they don’t just tell them what they want to hear. On behalf of Carmel, Rosa, Anthony, Matt, myself (and the kids) we want to thank you all for making a stressful and sad time such an amazing experience!

NEW HOMES & LAND
ENJOY THE BEST OF BOTH WORLDS Melbourne’s in-demand south-eastern region is set to welcome a new residential address with the launch of Belmond on Clyde, a boutique community in one of Casey’s most prestigious pockets. Future residents of Belmond are set to enjoy the best of both worlds as a dedication to lush landscaping within the community will create the feeling of a tranquil sanctuary while the estate’s central location and access to facilities will offer unrivalled convenience and lifestyle appeal. Developed by Newland, Belmond is nestled among undulating hills and boasts 3.7 hectares of open space including picturesque Hilltop Park and a future wetlands precinct. Offering an assortment of some 600 lots, Belmond has something for everyone from larger lots situated adjacent to the parklands through to smaller allotments boasting an attractive price point for first home buyers. Located within an hour’s drive of the CBD and only five minutes from Cranbourne town centre, Belmond sets a new standard for modern living with easy access to shopping, schools, sports and recreation facilities. “Located only moments from Berwick and Cranbourne, Belmond offers residents the chance to be part of a private sanctuary hidden away from the hustle and bustle of this fast growing suburb,” said Newland development manager Steve Jennings. “Residents will have access to a secluded and picturesque central park and tranquil wetlands which all bring a sense of balance to the community, enabling
residents to unwind from their busy lives. “We’re confident that Belmond will impress a range of purchasers who are looking for a boutique neighbourhood and we look forward to seeing the
community grow as we welcome residents over the coming years,” he said. Belmond’s first land release of 25 lots ranging in size from 348 to 668 square metres and priced from $185,000
is now available. For more information or to register interest visit belmondonclyde.com.au or call Domenic on 1300 136 409.

ENZO RAIMONDO
CEO Real Estate Institute of Victoria
DON’T FALL IN LOVE WITH YOUR INVESTMENT Australians love bricks and mortar. Not only is home ownership the great Australian dream, but when we have spare cash to invest or have paid off the mortgage and want to put our equity to work, many of us turn again to property, buying for investment. While the term ‘property investor’ conjures visions of an individual with a broad property portfolio, it actually applies to many of us. According to the Real Estate Institute of Australia, the latest taxation statistics show 14.9 per cent of taxpayers are investors in the residential property market. The majority of those are ordinary “mums and dads” with only one investment property.
In the latest available statistics, 2010-11, 73 per cent of investors had only one such property. And in the previous five years there was substantial growth in the number of such investors. For most of us negative gearing which enables investors to claim a tax deduction for expenses on an investment property - provides an opportunity, and incentive, to invest. However, it’s important to remember that the same principles apply when buying an investment property as when buying your own home. In particular, any investment purchase should be underpinned by thorough research. This includes viewing the property, preferably several times.
After deciding on preferred locations and whether to buy a house or apartment, start by checking out median prices in those areas. Consult your bank, draw up your budget and be clear about your maximum price. There are many great properties out there, do not be tempted to exceed your maximum if you find “the right” one. Make a list of features you must have and those on which you would compromise. Remember, this is a rental; those criteria may be very different from those for your home. For example, you may be willing to spend time on a high maintenance, hard-to-clean home, but a rental
property should be hard wearing and easy to maintain. Think about what would make your property attractive to tenants. For example, you may enjoy driving to work, but rental property proximity to public transport is essential. If buying a family home to rent out, is it near schools? If buying a trendy apartment, tenants will want cafes nearby. Most importantly, put aside emotion. When buying your home you are looking for “the one”. But you don’t have to love your investment property - it needs to meet a particular purpose, and do that job well.

Sun and smiles show THIS yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Casey Kids Carnival saw a record crowd turnout for the festivities. A Casey council spokesperson said 25,000 people packed Akoonah Park in Berwick on Saturday 21 March for a day of free family fun at the special event. The weather turned it on over the weekend to ensure the main stage headline act - The Avengers
Side Show Alley - was a massive hit. Some of the other highlights for the day included a Paper Planet art activity, a photo booth, three craft workshops, face-painting and visits from players from the Melbourne Football Club and the Melbourne Stars. News photographer DONNA OATES stopped by the carnival to take a bunch of photos.
Eleanor Higham from Narre Warren gave her smile of approval after having her face painted by Jenny. 135385

Centre’s birthday style FOUNTAIN Gate Shopping Centre celebrated a special birthday this month. The popular shopping precinct turned 35 on 11 March and centre management recognised the occasion with a pop-up gallery, displaying images and facts from throughout the facility’s more than three decades of history. The pop-up gallery was accompanied by free 15 minute history sessions by local historian Heather Arnold.

Upmarket grill has its brewery on tap By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE Atura Hotel is the only establishment of its kind in Doveton, according to its manager. The hotel opened its new American-style Roadhouse Bar and Grill two weeks ago after the new Atura Hotels management took over the facility in October. Atura Hotel Doveton general manager Lisa Parker said the restaurant was open six nights a week from Monday to Saturday. “Each of the areas is an urban industrial, high design and art inspired user-friendly space,” she said. “At this stage we’re attracting predominately house guests, hence why we’re trying to promote to the local community. “There’s really nothing in the area, nothing upmarket in the area. “This is definitely upmarket.” The opening of the new Roadhouse grills comes after the Atura Hotel recently unveiled its new brewery. The brewery was rebranded when Atura took over the hotel as part of its Amalgamated Holdings Portfolio in late October. “We inherited the brewery and changed the name, it was previously called the Coldwater Creek Brewery and we changed it to Brownstone,” Ms Parker said. “We also inherited their pilsener recipe and have since created our own pale ale, and our brewer is busy coming up with the recipe for a new brew.” Trademarking its two current distinct brews as the Brownstone Pale Ale and the Brownstone Pilsener, Ms Parker said the micro-brewery drew patrons from across the City of Casey and beyond.
Atura Hotel Doveton general manager Lisa Parker inspects the new Brownstone Brewery. 134530 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS She said there were no other facilities like it on the way out of town until the Mornington Peninsula. “It’s certainly our point of difference, given there’s nothing else like it in the area,” she said. “Our closest competitors are in the Morning Peninsula, we’re a pit stop along the way.”
The 500-litre brewery, built on the Atura site four years ago, was recognised as a facility that could be expanded and opened beyond its regular dinner hours. “We’ve got a really strong following of local corporates, and we’d like to develop more of a family trade,” Ms Parker said.
“Craft beer is increasing year by year in popularity and we’re also looking into the possibility of botting our beers and developing our recipes further to keep it interesting for the local market.” Atura Hotels manages two other facilities in Albury and Blacktown in Sydney.
Market boss sets out secrets for market success DANDENONG Market has shared the secrets to its success with market bosses from around the world. Market chairwoman Julie Busch was invited to speak on 26 March at the ninth International Public Markets Conference in Barcelona. She discussed the role Dandenong Market plays in creating jobs and business opportunities for emerging communities. “The growth and prosperity of Dandenong has been closely linked to the success of the market from the earliest days,” she said last week. “The market has been the cornerstone of bustling community life for almost 150 years - a place of employment and economic contribution, a place of community and shelter and, importantly, a beginning for so many different nationalities to become merchants and traders.” Ms Busch shared a panel with representatives from the City of Torino in Italy, UN Women in Papua New Guinea, and the USA’s Marshall University. Project for Public Spaces (PPS) presented the three-day conference with support from co-hosts UN Habitat and the Institut Municipal de Mercats de Barcelona. Its focus was on new trends and innovations for preserving and revitalising public markets, and why markets were a cost-effective investment for cities. The City of Greater Dandenong completed a $26 million redevelopment at Dandenong Market between 2005 and 2010. “The City of Greater Dandenong has long supported and championed Dandenong Market,” Ms Busch said. “The council continues to invest in building the market’s reputation as a local icon by supporting headline events at the market, including Dandenong World Fare and the Family Sustainability Festival.” Did you get your start in business at Dandenong Market?

Last day behind the desk By LACHLAN MOORHEAD AFTER 33 years as a teacher and principal - 13 at the helm of Fountain Gate Secondary College - Vicki Walters is calling it a day. Last Friday the 57-year-old, who has spent most of her career teaching throughout Melbourne’s south-east corridor, sat in the principal’s chair for the last time. Mrs Walters, who lives in Emerald with her husband Charles, remembered how she wanted to be a teacher since her own early days in high school. “I’ve always said to any young person - we understand they make mistakes, but as long as they learn from them,” Mrs Walters said. “Education is not just about the academic process; it’s really about developing the whole child, and their social and emotional well-being, “The teenage years are difficult years not just for the children but for their families. “Education is a partnership between the school, student and family.” Mrs Walters began her teaching journey at Cranbourne Meadows Technical School in 1983. It is now known as Lyndhurst Secondary College and Mrs Walters taught home economics at the school before becoming the year level co-ordinator for Grade 7. This tale of teaching then saw Ms Walters move on to different roles at a range of schools in the City of Casey and Greater Dandenong, including Noble Park Technical School as an advanced skills teacher. When that school merged around
After 33 years as a teacher and principal throughout Melbourne's south-east, Fountain Gate Secondary College principal Vicki Walters is walking into retirement with a smile on her face and a head full of Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS cherished memories. 136708 1992 - while the Kennett Government was in power - to become Noble Park Secondary College, the mother of two continued working there. Mrs Walters then picked up a leading teaching position at Gleneagles Secondary College and three years later was promoted to assistant principal, before moving to take on a job
she couldn’t refuse - campus principal of Eumemmering College’s Fountain Gate Campus. When Eumemmering College separated into four separate schools in 2009 after a State Government review, Mrs Walters was instrumental in shaping Fountain Gate Secondary College’s new identity.
“It’s been the best thing that happened to all the colleges,” Mrs Walters said of the split. “It was a very exciting time. We went through rebadging and developing our logo and building our sense of identity during that time. “The principal’s position had to be advertised again in August 2009, and I
was successful,” she said. Mrs Walters said the college’s multiculturalism underlined the identity she has worked so hard to help it build. “I grew up in the northern suburbs with newly arrived migrants and I find myself in a school with a significant number of newly arrived immigrants to our country,” she said. “It’s great to see them really value education, working hard to do their best.” In retirement Mrs Walters looks forward to traversing Australia alongside Charles in their caravan. But more than a thought or two will be had about the lives of many students, and parents, that Mrs Walters has nurtured and guided. “Yesterday I had flowers delivered from a parent who, in the early days, I had quite a few arguments with,” she laughed. “But I’ve always had the children’s best interests at heart, and now that person has become one of my biggest supporters. “And that happens with a number of families.” Head of Commerce at Fountain Gate Secondary College Rhonda Johnstone - a long-time colleague of Mrs Walters - summed up her dearest friend as a great listener, confidante and mentor. “Everyone will remember Vicki being the one who is generous with her time, humour, and support, and believes everyone has the right to a good education,” Ms Johnstone said. “As long as people were prepared to put in the hard work and give it their best, she was there to support you.”

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A DANDENONG man’s career as a security crowd controller is over after he was convicted of drug offences last week. Zoran Tancev faced trafficking, speeding and driving while suspended charges in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday after failing to appear at several court hearings since August. The court was told Tancev had been pulled over by police after being detected driving at 120 kilometres per hour in a 100 km/h zone on Princes Highway, Warrnambool, on 9 June.
In the car was found one gram of ice in a zip-lock bag as well as Xanax and valium tablets. He had been driving while suspended. On 6 August he was arrested for failing to appear in court, driving while suspended and drug possession in Cranbourne Homemakers Centre car park. On 7 December he was arrested for two court non-appearances and was bailed to appear in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 12 March. Again he failed to appear and was arrested last Sunday week when he was intercepted driving while suspended in Doveton. Tancev was remanded in custody
to appear in court the following day. The accused was a father who had run his own business but had a “chronic issue” with drugs, his lawyer Elissa Scott told the court. He had been “clean” for a number of years but “turned to ice” to deal with his marriage breakdown and being unable to see his children The part-time crowd-controller would not be able to work in the industry after the sentencing, Ms Scott said. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said “the wheels had fallen off” for Tancev in the past nine months but there was “some hope” for the accused.
“Sometimes this is the lowest point. “We see someone like yourself who’s never been in custody. It’s probably a big shock that you’ve been picked up. “If you put your mind to it you can get another job. “There is a future that is very long for you and a good future if you engage (with the communitycorrections order).” Tancev was convicted and sentenced to supervision and 150 hours of unpaid work as part of a 12-month community-corrections order. He was also ordered to undertake drug rehabilitation.

By CASEY NEILL A LEADER in Dandenong’s Italian community has stepped down from her post after 25 years. Nancy Sciacca founded the Napoli Family Club and celebrated its quartercentury with a lunch at Menzies Avenue Hall in Dandenong North on 19 March. She used the event to step down from the position of president due to illhealth. Frank Di Blasi was at the event and said Ms Sciacca received honorary club life membership. “The extraordinary thing has been that she’s been the president all these 25 years, no-one has challenged her for the position,” he said. “Nancy’s been the mother figure for the club. “When she gave a speech she said ‘this club has been for me my second home’.” Mr Di Blasi said the senior citizens club had more than 200 members who participated in social activities. “When they are indoors, they play games, do gentle exercises, a variety of things,” he said. “The ladies play tom-

It is a well-known and respected club in the Italian community. “People are coming
from districts further away - they’re coming from Kooweerup, for instance.” Mr Di Blasi said Ms Sciaccia had been an important figure in the Italian community and founded an annual catholic festival. “She has co-ordinated
volunteers to visit homebound, frail Italian-speaking people in the area,” he said. “She’s a much-respected and esteemed person.” Dandenong’s Giuseppina Lidonnici will take over the reins. “She has been in
the committee as a secretary, so maybe the change won’t be very traumatic because she’s already been in the club for many years,” Mr Di Blasi said. “She should be able to continue on where Nancy’s left off.”

The Wright replacement By JARROD POTTER DANDENONG didn’t have to venture far to find its new WNBL coach after Rangers’ SEABL coach Larissa Anderson signed on the dotted line ahead of the 2015/16 season. Already adept at training Dandenong teams to win titles, the three-time SEABL championship winning coach Anderson will return to the WNBL eight seasons after her retirement as a player. “I’m very excited to get the opportunity to give the higher level a crack,” Anderson said. “Very humbled and very honoured… it’s something obviously I’ve been working hard towards and could only dream that one day it happens… so for it to happen now it’s quite surreal.” It’s fitting that 20 years on from donning the Rangers’ jersey for the first time herself, Anderson is back on the sidelines to take the reins of the three-time WNBL champions ahead of their 24th season. “I only just realised a couple of days ago it’s been 20 years to the day since I played my first WNBL game for the Rangers and it adds that whole new component,” Anderson said. “It’s really special to think 20 years on I’m going to be the first female WNBL coach at the Rangers in my first WNBL gig - I think that’s pretty special.” The WNBL life-member - who played at Bulleen and Dandenong throughout a 10-season career - has recently guided Dandenong’s SE-
ABL team to a three-peat from 2010 to 2012, sides under Anderson’s tutelage have rarely fallen far down the ladder since she began coaching in 2004. She’ll replace outgoing Rangers’ coach Mark Wright - who was at the helm of the Rangers for the last five seasons, including five finals’ berths and a championship in 2011/12. Anderson’s first challenge at the helm will be her biggest, as Dandenong attempts to resign both Penny Taylor and WNBA champion Cappie Pondexter or finding sufficient firepower to cover their losses. “The biggest priority obviously is to chat to all the existing players and coaches and try and keep as many of the core group together moving forward,” Anderson said. “I think most of the time they showed good chemistry together on court, so it would be great to at least keep a good core group together.” With players like Lauren Scherf, Amanda Meinking, Rachael Antoniadou, Tenaya Phillips all rising through the ranks of Anderson’s SEABL team, there won’t be many surprises for the 250-game WNBL veteran with her roster ahead of her inaugural coaching campaign, starting in October. “This is their chance to work really hard through the SEABL season and for me to have a look at where everyone is at,” Anderson said. “It’s really exciting and we’re really blessed at Dandenong to have such a great talent pool to

we go because I’m very mindful of the family and not burning out so we need to be smart about it. “For now it is lots of hard work to put in for the WNBL so it’s a busy, but exciting time.” Dandenong Basketball Association CEO David Graham said Anderson’s on-and-off court record speaks for itself and she would be a great asset for the club. “Larissa’s coaching credentials have been impressive in the SEABL competition to date and we’re all confident that she’ll be successful at WNBL level,” he said. “She has great rapport with players and we feel, amongst many other criteria, that this is important in our push for the club’s next WNBL title.”

By JARROD POTTER SMASHING apart the Western Region Football League (WRFL), six Noble Park footballers played exceptionally to guide Eastern Football League (EFL) back towards the top of the AFL Victoria Metropolitan Championships. Six of the best Bulls - Stewart Kemperman, Shayne Allan, Glen Manson, Ziggy Alwan, Jackson Sketcher and Sam Monaghan - took to Princes Park on Saturday with one mission: returning the Eastern Football League to the top echelon of the Metro rankings. The best efforts of the WRFL weren’t enough to match pace with Eastern’s power packed midfield or its high-flying forwards. Despite a gallant fight back from the underdog Westerners, the Eastern force charged ahead to record an emphatic 34-point win. It was a Noble Park flavour to the start of the match as Shayne Allan (three goals) slotted the EFL’s first of 13 for the interleague clash. Glen Manson’s efforts through the ruck gave the red, white and black brigade first use of the pill as Eastern ran out to a three-goal lead at half-time. Showing why he will be a handful back in the Eastern league this year, Bulls’ forward Ziggy Alwan (two goals) popped up for characteristic strong marks and two goals in a sign of things to come. Also making the switch from Frankston Dolphins to the Bullring, former Noble Park junior Jackson Sketcher popped up for the match-clinching goal in a superb effort throughout the forward half. Balwyn’s Luke Barker (four goals) led the EFL charge while Norwood’s Matt Aver was named the EFL’s best on ground medallist. The win promotes the EFL back in to the battle-for-first and will face the VAFA in next year’s AFL Victoria Metropolitan Championship clash.

IT WAS a dandy night at Eureka 89 on Friday as the Dandenong Journal’s sports team clinched a major cricket award. Clinching the state cricketing body’s highest photographic accolade was Dandenong Journal photojournalist Jarrod Potter. Jarrod was named the Photography Award winner for his picture of Dandenong Cricket Club’s simple tribute to deceased Australian cricketer Phillip Hughes at the Cricket Victoria State and Media Awards night. Doubling the Star News Group success on the night was Sports Editor David Nagel, who claimed the Country Award for his profile of Peter ‘Bun’ O’Hare, who tragically passed away days after the article was written.

St John’s first Hall of Famer By JARROD POTTER IF IT’S season launch is any indication of things to come expect a successful, but at the same time hugely celebrated, season from St John’s OC Football Club. Green, yellow and black could be seen for miles around St Mary’s Community Centre on Friday afternoon as the Victorian Amateur Football Association’s (VAFA) Division-2 side ushered in 2015 in fitting fashion as Dandenong’s highest ranked amateur football team. With special guests Peter Daicos, Mark Maclure, Simon Helmot all led warmly by MC Tiffa-
ny Cherry, around 100 JOC’s players, committee members and supporters commenced their season in spectacular style, which also served as celebration for its 25th anniversary. With the foundations formed in 1990, St John’s has gone from strength-to-strength as it hoists its way up the VAFA divisional structure. Division 2 is hopefully only a stepping stone for the side which has lofty ambitions of rising into the Premier ranks of the 123-year old metropolitan football league in years to come.

find new inductees to its newly launched Hall of Fame. One of its champions from the initial era was duly recognised for his achievements on and off the field as Brendon La’Brooy was announced as the JOCs first Hall of Fame candidate. A former St John’s captain and Victorian representative, La’Brooy was thrilled to be the first JOC inducted into the prestigious group and believes the friendships they made were just as important as the flags they won. “I’m just totally overwhelmed, it’s unbelievable,” La’Brooy said. “Totally shocked, especially with the likes of some of the guys I grew up playing footy with being such a big part of the footy club. “We had a great group of people, champion people, administration, coaching and guys that worked tirelessly towards contributing to the
footy club. “We were just a group of mates and thought ‘let’s have a crack’ and we were successful. “Whether we won, lost or drew, we’d have a great time.” St John’s also announced its leadership group for the senior side at the luncheon as it has given the co-captaincy to Glenn Costas and Liam Mara while there will also be co-vice captains in Liam Connor and Daniel Cattolico. With returning premiership coach Ben McGee at the helm, the VAFA season starts for St John’s - running seniors and reserves in 2015 - next Saturday as it heads to Melbourne High School to face the Old Boys from 2pm. Sponsorship packages and memberships for the club are still available - for more information, contact club secretary Chris Swinburne at sec_stjohns@hotmail.com.
Stingrays flounder in Power’s almighty current By JARROD POTTER WELCOME to the big league. It was a harsh arrival for the Dandenong Stingrays as the visitors were shown very little hospitality in a 5.9 (39) to 14.10 (94) Gippsland-style dissection. The Power was well-and-truly on while the Stingrays floundered as lateral switches in the defensive end and a shocking kicking efficiency proving lethal for Dandenong throughout the clash. The switching and kicking left little doubt to the crowd who was in charge as Dandenong’s lack of football acumen was inverted by the Power, who worked to the fall of the ball, fought for each other and made a contest of every stoppage. Dandenong held on throughout the first term - snaring the early lead through skipper Lachlan Williams (two goals) and fresh-faced forward Josh Battle (two goals) - before the Power took the lead and refused to give it back for the rest of the afternoon. Defender Brandon White was positive early - affecting a number of spoils across centre-half-back - but would be brought back to earth, like the majority of his team mates, in an overwhelming display of Gippsland’s power. The home side flexed its muscles through the second term - restricting Dandenong to a dying minutes’ goal from Battle while at the other end booting four of their own as Nick Argento (two goals) snuck under the packs and worked his way onto the scoreboard. Bailey Rice (hip) didn’t return to the match after half-time and the Stingrays were left with no bench in
the last quarter as cramp and fatigue decimated coach Craig Black’s rotations. Dandenong would be held goalless in the final term but it could’ve been a lot worse as Gippsland’s only error of the day came from its 10 behinds - missing easy chances in front of goals. Bluntly assessing a poor performance, Black had little praise for his side who were well-and-truly smashed from pillar-to-post by the Power. “It was really disappointing,” Black said. “I think all our preparation had been going alright… to turn up and dish out a performance like that is pretty ordinary from the group.” Dandenong had a hard time finding a best six throughout the mediocre effort, but Harry Prior, Battle and White proved best afield while the captain also kept his cool to affect the contest and continued to toil for the Stingrays in the despondent display.“Harry Prior worked really hard at centre-halfforward without the reward, and Josh Battle for his first game in the TAC Cup - he’s a 17-year-old - I thought competed really well,” Black said. “They didn’t kick the goals, but we didn’t kick it that well to them either.” The Power’s Ben Ainsworth (five goals) and leaping Harry McKay (four goals) had the ball on a tether while Tate Marsh and Deven Costigan proved elite in the first run-around of the season. Dandenong faces Geelong Falcons at Shepley Oval on Easter Saturday from 1pm.

Fever improves By MICHAEL FLOYD FEVER Pitch continued his meteoric rise with a barnstorming all-of-the-way win in a heat of the $200,000 Group 2 Razldazl Launching Pad at Sandown Park on Thursday evening. On a night that saw some of the country’s fastest young greyhounds come together to vie for a berth in one of the richest prizes in Australian greyhound racing, Fever Pitch showed why he is regarded as one of the nation’s most exciting chasers when leading all of the way to win his heat in 29.49. “He just keeps on improving,” trainer Rin Divirgilio said. “You never know how they’ll go over the 515 metres until you put them over the distance, but he was going so well at Sale and Warragul (over 440m and 460m) we were confident he’d adapt pretty well. “I think he’s only going to get better with experience too.” The Razldazl Launching Pad is restricted to greyhounds with one-to-six wins and no more than 30 starts. In a unique feature of the race, each berth in the heats required the purchase of an entry form - 64 entry forms went on sale in September and sold out in a day. The win was his seventh in nine career starts and Fever Pitch enters Thursday’s final undefeated in three starts at Sandown Park. Time honours went to Ballerino, winner of the night’s opening heat in 29.40. Odds-on-favourite Allkel To Excel showed exceptional early speed to open a three-length lead down the back straight before Ballerino displayed an impressive turn of foot to storm home and win by six lengths. The aptly named Express Pace showed

Greying MAMILs hit the road Excelling on line and length is what you’d expect from former international cricketer Darren Pattinson and his aptly named Express Pace. 136881 just that when winning his heat in 29.43. Trained by former Victorian fast bowler Darren Pattinson and owned in conjunction with his brother, Australian Test fast bowler James, Express Pace showed both speed and strength to earn a tilt at his second Group title. “The inside draw made a big difference,” Darren Pattinson said. “He didn’t go too well in his first start here, but I’d only given him a hand slip in the lead up and he got a little lost around the first turn. “He’s really strong in the run to the line but he needed to step cleanly and that’s what he did tonight.” Express Pace won the Group 3 GRV VBIS Maiden at The Meadows in
March, and a win in the final would catapult his earnings to over $180,000 from just six career starts. Geelong based trainers claimed the remaining five heats, with Andrea Dailly duo Usain I’m Nutty and Lektra Concord joining Rocka Hula Baby for Kelly Bravo, Gaucho for Brooke Ennis, and Targayen for Robert Britton in the final. Just three lengths separate the finalists based on heat times ensuring an intriguing final. The Razldazl Launching Pad highlights an outstanding card of racing which also features the Listed $36,000 Easter Gift. It is also the club’s annual Easter Kids Fun Night with a host of free activities, prizes and giveaways for the entire family.
MAMILS were out in force last Saturday as Southern Masters Cycling Club (SMCC) took to Casey Fields Criterium. That’s not a misspelling - Middle Aged Men in Lycra (MAMIL), and in certain instances MAWILs, went lap for lap around the criterium as part of the club’s Casey Cycling Carnival. The region’s only all-age cycling club showed that while the follicles had greyed, the attitude and intent of the riders certainly hasn’t mellowed as the riders flew out the gates en route to an hour’s worth of frenetic racing.

Victoria celebrates its Sheffield Shield victory over Western Australia. 136884 Picture: GETTY IMAGES
VICTORIAN success was driven by a Dandenong duo as James Pattinson and Peter Siddle helped the Bushrangers hold aloft the 2014/15 Sheffield Shield. Taking the final to Hobart - on account of the Cricket World Cup final this weekend at the MCG - a draw was good enough for Victoria (381 and 4/158) to win the Shield over Western Australia (421 and 2/293dec) Fawad Ahmed (8/89) spun his way towards Test consideration after career best figures to take the best record in a Shield grand final. Siddle (2/67) also chimed in for a couple of wickets in the first innings before Chris Rogers (112) starred with the bat, but the Victorians could not take first innings points away from the Westerners.
It left Adam Voges and his men little time to try and set a defendable tally and bowl out Victoria for the win. Western Australian dynamo Voges (107 and 36 not out) and Marcus Harris (81 and 158 not out) proved exceptional for the visitors, but their efforts could not be replicated with the bowlers as Western Australia struggled to dismiss the Victorians. The Victorians gritted their teeth and stuck to the crease as the retiring David Hussey (37 not out) had a fitting finish to his First Class career - batting in combination with Rob Quiney (53) and Matt Wade (9 not out) to see off 95 overs and take the trophy. It wasn’t the only success Pattinson had this week as he was named Melbourne Renegades’ Player of the Season for his efforts during the summer’s Big Bash competition.

MANY car owners like nothing better than to stand out in a crowd and automobile makers are only too happy to lend a hand... at a price. I recently was in possession of one of the French manufacturer’s new Clios as a test car, which with add-ons was like no other vehicle I had come across. The Oyster Grey mid-spec Clio TCe120 Dynamique, a sixspeed automatic comes onto the market at the manufacturer’s recommended price of $23,790. It had been loaded up with special features, for example, the paint was metallic, costing an extra $550; there was red exterior trim for $250; matching red dashboard and seat covering, $500; 17-inch Diamond Red alloy wheels, $750; and RLink infotainment, $990, making the price as tested $26,830, plus on-roads. I had to admit, the car did look a treat. Available only in five-door form, the new Clio has a coupelike profile, made even more so by hidden rear door handles. A lower ride-height, which aids aerodynamics, plus pronounced shoulder lines, add to the visually distinctive appearance. The latest Clio introduces Renault’s Media Nav and RLink, both using an 18cm touchscreen display and enabling satellite navigation, radio, Bluetooth connectivity for hands-free operation or music audio streaming, as well as USB and 3.5 mm connectors. Ideal acoustics inside the car are topped off without high volume distortion. The new Renault Clio TCe 120 engine mated to a six-speed EDC (efficient dual clutch) automatic gearbox is a four-cylinder 1.2-litre petrol unit. Direct fuel injection and turbocharging result in maximum power of 88 kW at 4900 rpm and peak torque of 190 Nm at 2000rpm.

Official fuel consumption of 5.2 litres per 100 kilometres on the combined cycle and carbon dioxide emissions of 120 g/km per kilometre are claimed. The new Clio is the first light segment car to employ active vents in front of the radiator helping to reduce fuel consumption by adjusting the flow of air through the radiator as a function of the engine’s cooling needs. Under normal running conditions in fast-flowing traffic, closure of the vents permits fuel savings. The bad news is it’s of the order of just 0.1 litres per 100 kilometres at 130 km/h - the motorway speed limit in most European countries. Weight saving includes a smaller fuel tank, reduced from 55 to 45 litres, which has no impact on fuel range, thanks to the economy gains. Passive safety is taken care of with a reinforced body structure, high-efficiency frontal airbags, lateral head and thorax airbags, a pressure sensor to detect impending impacts, seatbelts with (front seat) pre-tensioners and load limiters, antiwhiplash head rests, a luggage
partition and anti-submarining front and rear seats. Standard active safety systems include electronic stability control, ABS anti-skid braking, emergency brake assist and hill start assist. From the start, the Dynamique was lethargic, in Eco mode even more so. However, like a late afternoon gin and tonic, a top-up of 98 RON petrol was received with pleasure, and had Clio stepping out with renewed vigour. Fuel efficiency was on the money with a figure of 4.5 litres per 100 kilometres recorded on a motorway run, 7-plus litres a regular recording in and around town. Unique to this function is R-Link’s R-sound, in which the driver can alter the sound of the engine to imitate a range of present-day Renault vehicles and the supposed sound of a people mover of the future. Gimmicks aside, R-Link also is connected to the car’s own electronic systems giving access to an advanced ecodriving function (Driving eco2) which analyses the driver’s behaviour and provides advice to help reduce fuel consumption.
