■ Mum’s hope springs eternal on Michalski’s elbow, and visible with every shot he takes...

Indelible mark fort to rearrange the wedding, sadly Deb’s time drew to an end just 11 days before the rescheduled, special event. “It was tough - spending the last Christmas with her and that stuff was really hard, and it still affects me now thinking about it,” Michalski said. “Going to hospital at 2am and spending five hours there ... so I could spend time with her. “It was hard to fit so much in to just a few months, knowing there wasn’t long left.” The Cavaliers’ guard knows it will be difficult to wear the Casey pink-jersey so soon after his mother’s death, but he’s proud to suit up and pay tribute on Deb’s most cherished basketball day. “I think it’s going to be tough more than anything,” Michalski said. “It’s going to mean a lot to her and me personally more than anything, but it’s definitely going to be tough - the hardest thing will be getting through before and after the match. “The club has done a wonderful job in promoting it so far, so hopefully there’s a big turnout in her honour. “She especially liked seeing me play basketball from a young age and having a whole game or event named after her was a big deal to her and it meant a lot to her.” Continued on page 17

THROUGH every shot he will ever take, Stephen Michalski knows his mother his greatest fan in a lifelong basketball journey - will always be at his side. On his right forearm, nestled in a nearly completed tattoo sleeve, there’s one piece of ink that means the most to the 24-year-old from Narre Warren South. A small, pink ribbon flowing across his arm to spell out “hope”. Every time he shoots a basket, you can see the tattoo, which serves as a humble memorial to Michalski’s mother Debra Margaret Spinks who died from breast cancer in January. This year’s “Ballin’ for Breast Cancer” event - held on Saturday at Casey Indoor Leisure Centre, Cranbourne - will mean even more for Michalski as it will be the first Mother’s Day since Deb passed away. The Casey Cavaliers’ community kept Michalski going through the trying offseason, as he went back-andforth between hospital and home to visit his mum twicea-day, while planning a wedding with his beloved Gabie. Wanting Deb to attend the wedding - originally planned for later in the year - the couple quickly brought the date forward so she could see her son marry. Despite their best intentions and a superhuman ef-

The repair works to the Fox Road bridge are currently being completed. The onset of wet weather has slowed the progress of works as Council’s contractor has needed to pump a large pipe under the bridge each day before undertaking repairs.

The awards, which comprise of 12 categories, the Casey Cardinia Business of the Year award and the People’s Choice Award, recognise the best of the best in business across the region.

Community safety has been a priority throughout these works. Council is committed to ensuring the bridge is completely safe before it being reopened. Council apologises for any inconvenience and thanks you for your patience.

Have your say: MetroAccess Community Building The City of Casey is calling on individuals and organisations that provide support and services to people with disabilities to complete Council’s MetroAccess Community Building survey. The MetroAccess Community Building Program, funded by the Department of Human Services (DHS), supports communities to develop new ways of including people with a disability in local community life. The information gathered will assist Council in understanding and reducing barriers to enhance participation in community life for people with a disability. It will inform future planning to ensure that the needs of people with a disability are considered when developing and delivering programs, services, information and employment in Casey. Complete the MetroAccess survey online at www.casey.vic.gov.au/currentconsultations or for hard copies please contact Customer Service on 9705 5200.

Burglar behind bars By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A CRANBOURNE North man has been jailed over “high-end burglaries”, including a $20,000 ransack that cleaned out a Lynbrook home. Agim Abdi, 32, pleaded guilty in a court on Monday to stealing an array of items including passports, drivers’ licences, birth certificates, jewellery, business and personal mobile phones and laptops, a large TV and camera from the home on 5 August 2013. An ice-using Abdi told a police interview soon after the crime that he “possibly could have committed the burglary and not remembered it”. He told the interview he didn’t know the location of the stolen property - none of which has ever been recovered, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court was told. Sen Const Buschgens said DNA evidence from a blood sample found

at a smashed window and on the ground at the home linked Abdi to the burglary. In a separate incident in March 2013, Abdi was detained by members of the public in a Berwick residential street after stealing envelopes from home mailboxes as well as drivers’ licences and user manuals from two Nissan vehicles. Abdi told police at the time he had just been collecting hard rubbish in the area. Police found ice, morphine sulphate and diazepam in clear bags as well as pliers, bolt-cutters, latex gloves, bandana and screwdrivers on Abdi’s person, the court was told. He was carrying bags containing suspected stolen items such as CDs, keys and handbags. He also pleaded guilty to taking part in a commercial burglary in Jells Road, Wheelers Hill, in which two jaws-of-life and trade tools were stolen and loaded into a stolen Hilux

ute on 27 January this year. He and two co-accused were arrested at the scene when their ute got tangled in a perimeter wire fence during their attempted escape. Abdi was found with one gram of amphetamine on his person. During a subsequent raid of Abdi’s house, Monash CIU detectives seized seven GPS devices, seven laptops, a silver watch, a City of Casey street sign, a passport and Crown Mahogany membership, personalised numberplates and a set of car and house keys. He claimed to police he didn’t know the items were stolen; the seized drug paraphernalia was for personal ice-smoking. Abdi’s lawyer told the court that the the accused’s offending was funding his ice habit of up to half a gram a day. Abdi started using ice because he had felt lethargic in his construction

work; he now referred to it as “the devil”. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Abdi - who had not complied with two recent community corrections orders since 2013 - would not get a third chance at a CCO. He noted the great inconvenience caused by the “high-end burglaries” such as replacing passports, drivers’ licences and birth certificates and the sentimental value of unrecovered jewellery. He said Abdi’s loyal parents, who arrived with Abdi as Macedonian refugees in 1998, had already gone through a “massive amount to get you here”. “Your parents are getting older, not younger. They don’t want to be spending their days watching their son in the dock.” Abdi was jailed 14 months - with a five-month non-parole period - which included 56 days already served in remand.

Brave father saves family as wall falls By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A FATHER was forced to hold up a falling wall in Cranbourne Park Shopping Centre so his wife and children could rush to safety. Three people were taken to hospital by ambulance after the temporary wall collapsed inside the shopping centre around 12.30pm on Tuesday, and three others were treated on the scene, but everyone hurt is in a stable condition. No-one had been trapped under the wall, despite earlier reports. A man in his fifties was taken to Casey Hospital with a head injury, while a woman in her eighties was taken to Dandenong Hospital, also with an injury to her head. A woman in her thirties, who just missed being hit by the collapsing wall, was transported to Frankston Hospital with a medical condition, but is stable. It’s believed Tuesday’s strong winds caused roughly 50 metres of the temporary wall to fall, which had been set up in front of one of the stores still under construction at the newly refurbished shopping centre. Rob Boon was walking towards K-Mart with his wife and kids, one a toddler in a pram, when the wall fell and he bore the brunt on his shoulders so his family could escape. “I heard this massive crack and as I looked forward I saw the wall start to wave in the wind,” Rob said. “You could hear four or five cracks as all the mounting points attached to the roof started to crack away. “Another gust of wind and it all

Briefly

Daylight park robbery A YOUNG man and woman have been robbed in broad daylight in a Hampton Park reserve. The two victims were walking through the Marjorie Eastick Reserve just before midday on Thursday 30 April when they were threatened by a man with a weapon who demanded their personal items. The Caucasian man, who then fled on foot with their items towards Regans Road, is believed to be aged in his mid-twenties, had visible arm and leg tattoos and was wearing black shorts.

Gang attacks man A MAN was viciously set upon by a gang of 12 youths as he walked towards a 7-Eleven in Cranbourne. The victim was approaching the petrol station at the corner of the South Gippsland Highway and Huon Park Road when the gang approached him and demanded his personal property. One of the men then punched the victim on the side of the head, forcing him to the ground, where other offenders then kicked him. The men stole the victim’s property and cash and fled the scene. The victim sustained facial injuries in the attack. The Embona taskforce is investigating the incident.

Armed offender injured in robbery ONE of five armed offenders who stormed a Cranbourne milk bar this month and got into a fight with the employee has come off second best. The offender was taken to hospital after being injured in the altercation at the Clairmont Avenue milk bar, where property was damaged. An ambulance attended the incident and several alleged offenders have been interviewed by police.

A GROUP of teenagers lit a trolley on fire in Cranbourne last month. The three boys and a girl - all thought to be aged between 12 and 16 - lit the fire around 4pm on Wednesday 29 April at the corner of Bellarine Drive and Phoenix Avenue. CFA crews attended the fire and police are encouraging any witnesses to come forward.

State commits cash

Grassfires link probed

By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS

POLICE are investigating a series of grassfires in Cranbourne they believe are linked. Three of the fires were all lit on Sunday 3 May at a reserve near The Arcade in Junction village, the first being reported at 8pm. The second occurred nearby at 10.45pm, while the third was sighted in the same area around 11pm. This month’s fires came after two other blazes were reported in February at the same location. One was sighted around 8.30pm on Wednesday 25 February and the other was lit hours later around 12.30am. A Holden Commodore ute, with no plates, was seen in the area at the time, and detectives have urged anyone with information to come forward.

SCHOOLS in the south-east have benefited from what State Treasurer Tim Pallas has labelled “the biggest education budget in Victoria’s history�. Mr Pallas made mention in his 2015’16 budget speech on Tuesday of a Cranbourne Secondary College student who said: “I love school but these classrooms are absolutely disgusting�. “That’s about as sad as you get. “While opening her eyes to the world, she’s turning her gaze away. “That can’t happen here - not in our state, not in our schools.� In the budget, Cranbourne Secondary College was allocated $1 million over two years for planning towards a $10 million upgrade. The upgrade includes redeveloping its science and technology wing and new classrooms. Hampton Park Primary School gets a $5 million upgrade of its administrative wing, art, library and computer rooms as well as a new science discovery centre. Berwick Fields Primary School is also one of 62 state schools named for maintenance repairs and other upgrades. The state’s “biggest increase in school funding� includes $178 million to help disadvantaged students go on school camps, get free eye tests and free breakfasts. Mr Pallas said the government was also covering an $805 million federal shortfall in Gonski funding in 2016 and 2017. Other budget announcements include $21 million for the final stage of the Thompsons Road duplication, and making good a $106 million state election pledge to upgrade Casey Hospital. A new bus service between Cranbourne and Pearcedale was also announced, with more services and extended routes such as the 847 Berwick

Then ALP election candidates Collin Ross, Luke Donnellan, Judith Graley, Daniel Andrews and wife Catherine pledging the Casey Hospital upgrade last year. 130660 to Casey Central route stretching into the Glasscocks Road area. Suburbs in Casey and Cardinia will share in a $50 million Interface Councils Infrastructure Fund covering 10 outersuburban councils. The fund will be used for multi-purpose facilities, community centres, and playgrounds. The Endeavour Hills precinct revamp has received $50,000 towards redesigning the town square and kiosk. The government will also commit to 20 E-class trams and 21 VLocity regional carriages built at Bombardier’s factory in Dandenong as part of a $2 billion rolling-stock package. It has also announced funding for a conventional signalling upgrade on the Cranbourne-Pakenham rail corridor. Mr Pallas said the larger Casey Hospital - to be completed in five years -

would treat 12,000 more patients, perform 8000 more surgeries and support 500 more births. Its new acute inpatient tower will include 96 extra beds, an intensive care unit and four operating theatres. A $60 million elective surgery blitz across the state’s hospitals was also announced. The Thompsons Road project, which duplicates two sections and seven kilometres of the arterial, is expected to be completed by June 2018. The sections - between DandenongFrankston Road and South Gippsland Highway, and between Narre WarrenCranbourne and Clyde roads - are used by 24,000 vehicles a day. The funds include design, environmental studies, traffic modelling, identifying underground services and property surveys.

Cranbourne MP Jude Perera said the duplication would be a “significant boost� for a “key freight and transport corridor�. “Labor started the duplication of this local main arterial, Labor is finishing the job.� South Eastern Metropolitan Region MP Inga Peulich criticised the backending of funds for the Thompsons Road and Casey Hospital projects. She said there was no construction money for the road in the next four years, and just $400,000 allocated to the hospital rebuild in 2015-’16. Ms Peulich said the government failed to fund the removal of the Hallam Road level crossing over the next four years. “Labor was elected to remove level crossings, rebuild Casey Hospital and duplicate Thompsons Road, and today’s budget fails on all three counts.�

His prized guitar was plucked A CRANBOURNE West resident has had his prized guitar and amplifier worth $2000 stolen from his house. The Gibson guitar and amp were taken from the Annand Close property between 3pm on Friday 1 and just after 1am on Saturday 2 May. It’s believed the offender forced entry into the house before making off with the items.

A NARRE WARREN teenager has been charged with importing weapons planned for use in a foiled terror plot allegedly targeting Anzac Day services in Melbourne’s south-east. Mehran Azami, 19, previously charged with four counts of possessing a prohibited weapon, was charged last Thursday with an extra 19 counts of importing prohibited weapons from a Chinese dealer including 27 tactical knives, 14 tasers disguised as mobile phones, and extendable batons. Azami is believed to be the weapons supplier for two other

dence and has been remanded to appear in court on Thursday. Cranbourne Police Sergeant Neil Herbert warned the community that officers were actively targeting drug users and

traffickers in the area. “The drug ice is particularly dangerous and addictive, affecting the mental state of the user, often leading to aggression and violent offending,” he said.

A MAN arrested in Hampton Park who was allegedly found with the drug ice in his car was already wanted by police on an outstanding warrant. The car was intercepted by police in Parkland Avenue during a routine check on Thursday, 30 April around 12.30pm. A police spokesperson said a search of the car found bags of what appeared to be the drug ice, a type of methamphetamine. The officers soon discovered the man was already wanted on an outstanding warrant related to previous drug charges. The man was charged with possession of a drug of depen-

Casey teenagers arrested in relation to the plot - 18-year-olds Harun Causevic and Sevdet Ramadan Besim. Azami appeared in Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Thursday 30 April and was remanded in custody to return in July. Causevic and Besim, also in custody, applied for bail at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday, with a ruling expected on Friday. They are due to return to court for a committal mention in August. Police swooped on the Casey teenagers in morning raids on Saturday 18 April fol-

lowing a tip-off from British police. A 200-strong joint state and federal police counterterrorism team executed seven search warrants in Narre Warren, Hampton Park, Hallam and Eumemmerring as part of Operation Rising. Just 24 hours before Anzac Day, British police charged a 14-year-old UK boy with trying to incite beheadings and attacks on Australian Anzac Day commemoration services. The teenager, who cannot be named for legal reasons, appeared at Westminster Magistrates’ Court in London last month and was denied bail.

Super all round SUPER effort from council in the construction of the new pathway along the South Gippsland Highway. Not only do locals use this but on many occasions I have seen serious walkers making their way from the train station to walk through the magnificent Botanical Gardens. Council has also had the trees pruned and mulched along the pathway and believe me the results are magnificent. Congratulations also to the company that designed the new shopping centre in Cranbourne and the owners for spending the money in creating a superb improvement in comparison to the bland, square concrete box that was built years ago by the Herscu Group - pathetic. Hooray for Cranbourne – a great place to live. Geoff Cousins, Cranbourne

SINCE new light was shed on special religious instruction (SRI) in July 2014, numerous principals across Casey dropped the volunteerrun program in their school. Teachers, principals and volunteers’ roles were set out in amended ministerial direction papers which made it clear that principals had to offer parents the 30-minute class if an accredited and approved SRI instructor approached the school. Principals could then decide based on the number of returned consent forms whether to run the program or not.

But assistant minister at St John’s Anglican Church in Cranbourne, Matt Scheffer said when he started with the church in January this year he was made aware by long-term parishioners and vicar, David Powys that SRI in Casey schools was nonexistent. “There is virtually no SRI in the area and it would be really sad if a generation grew up thinking that Easter was about a bunny laying chocolate eggs and that Christmas was about a fat man coming down the chimney - it’s sort of sending a confusing message especially when Christmas has much deeper roots in the Christian tradition and story,”

Mr Scheffer said. The St John’s Anglican Church will be running an after school program starting on Monday 27 April as an alternative to the SRI program in schools. The program will run from 3.30pm to 6pm and will include a snack for the children, games, craft, bible stories and songs. The six-week, gold coin donation program is aimed at children from Prep to Grade 4, but Mr Scheffer said everyone was welcome. Development and communications general manager at Access Ministries, Rob Ward said he expected to see some decline in SRI school run programs again in 2015.

Donning beanie

Wearing beanies were, back, Cub Zaidyn Wilkins, Scout Tahlia Morgan, Venturer Kim Petterson, Rover Sam Morgan, front, brain cancer survivor Levi Wilkins and Joey Liam Elliot. “He underwent quite toxic chemotherapy which required him to have his stem cells removed from his system and harvested,” Ms Wilkins said. “Then they had to go back into his body once the chemo had finished. “Then he underwent six weeks of intense radiation on the back of his head.” He has been healthy since his third birthday is progressing through rehabilitation. The tumour affected his mobility, balance and co-ordination.

“He’s had a pretty tough start on life. It’s never ever phased him in the slightest,” Ms Wilkins said. “He took all the needles and all the surgeries in his stride.” Ms Wilkins said she felt Ms Bickmore’s pain but the response to her speech had warmed her heart. “It’s a perfect catchphrase and I am so blown away with the epidemic that it’s started,” she said. “We do need funding to help other kids like Levi.” 1179756-EG15-15

SPRINGVALE Scouts donned beanies for brain cancer on Monday after being inspired by a brave Hampton Park boy. They were heeding the call Gold Logie winner Carrie Bickmore made at Sunday’s award ceremony in a tribute to her late husband, who lost his battle with brain cancer. The Project presenter put on a beanie while accepting her trophy and urged others to join her to raise awareness of the disease. Levi Wilkins was reluctant to wear his beanie at the 2nd Springvale Scout Group tribute, telling his mum Teagan “I don’t need these anymore”. The five-year-old has been cancer-free for two years and can’t wait to join his brother Zaidyn, 8, as a member of the group. Cub Scout leader Leanne Morgan said more than 45 youths and leaders took part and she’d “never been prouder”. Levi was just over seven months old when he was diagnosed with medulloblastoma. He’d missed milestones and had “a few quirks”. “I took a perfectly healthy looking child to the ED at Monash. After some investigation he had fluid on the brain,” she said. “It was caused by a seven centimetre tumour. It’s really hard to comprehend. “It had basically taken up about three quarters of his skull cavity.” Levi endured a year of chemotherapy and was given the all clear, but relapsed.

The McNamaras’ daughter Tracey was murdered in 1992. “That’s the thing that victims have to get back, you’ve got to learn to live again,” Noel said. “You’re never going to get over it, forget that, but you’ve got to learn... it’ll always come back and haunt you but you learn to get on.” For more information, visit the Justice for Maddy Facebook page.

Kelly Murphy, Maddy’s aunt, said the family had been overwhelmed by everyone’s support. “When Noah’s old enough to understand this horrible tragedy, at least he will know of all the loving and supportive friends we have made from their generous donations, time and love,” she said. “As hard as every day is without Maddy, we know with all your help Noah will be OK. “Even though a little boy should never stand beside his

PURPLE balloons were tied to posts throughout Casey Fields on Sunday. Purple was Maddy’s favourite colour. Family, friends and wellwishers gathered on the weekend at the Cranbourne grounds to remember Maddison Murphy-West, the 20-year-old who was found dead in her Pakenham home in 2013. The sun was shining on Casey Fields for the second annual Rally for Maddy where all funds raised will go towards the future and education of her three-year-old son, Noah. Maddy was found dead at her Ahern Road home in Pakenham on 23 October 2013 and homicide squad detectives continue to investigate her death. Last year’s anti-violence rally, which raised roughly $10,000, was organised after media reports emerged last year that Maddy was allegedly physically assaulted in the year before her mystery death. So far $5000 had been raised from Sunday’s event. Maddy’s mum, Paula, now has custody of Noah while also raising her own two-year-old son, Brydon. “It’s so important and getting the word out there about domestic violence,” Paula said at the rally. “She’d (Maddy) be in the middle of this all right, she would’ve helped with this if it was someone else. “This is something that she would actually put together.

Primary PEARCEDALE School could have been mistaken for a super school on Friday 1 May as they took to the skies and raised more than $2800 for an old school mate. Kooweerup Secondary College student Jesse Fahey, 17, rolled his ankle on a family holiday in America in 2014. After an X-ray he was told he had a severe sprain, but within six weeks his ankle had continued to swell. On the Australia Day weekend after an MRI scan, Jesse was told he had an aggressive tumour in his right leg. Five days later Jesse was diagnosed with osteosarcoma and had his right foot and ankle amputated on Tuesday 21 April after two rounds of chemotherapy. “It was the longest five days of my life,” Jesse’s mother, Linda Fahey said. “It took just three months from the diagnosis to the amputation, but he has had such a positive attitude throughout the whole ordeal,” Ms Fahey said. “It was so lucky he hurt his ankle in America or else we wouldn’t have known,” she said. With another four months of chemotherapy to come, Jesse said he was getting used to the wheelchair but can’t wait for his prosthetic leg. Jesse told his family, “I don’t care if they take my leg as long as I don’t have cancer.” With 40 hours clocked on his L-plates, Jesse still has 80

Ms McDonough took the familiar Fahey family around to classrooms where students read out stories they had written about super heroes and what it means to be brave. “Jesse had been saving up for a car for a while, and this will make a huge difference,” Ms Fahey said. Jesse’s next challenge is learning how to walk with his prosthetic leg, but thanks to his super hero friends and teachers at Pearcedale Primary School he is on his way to driving again.

DANCING in at ninth place on the world stage, Cranbourne’s own Irish dancing star, Callum McGregor says he has his mum to thank. Hopping and stepping his way into the top 10 in the 15 to 16 age group at the Old Irish Dance Competitions held in Montreal last month, 16-yearold Callum a student at St Peter’s College, Cranbourne, said he had his sights set on next year. “I came 20th in the world in 2010, and I’m going to compete in Glasgow again next year.” With a dream of performing with the international Irish dancing phenomenon, Riverdance, Callum thanks his mum for never letting him slack off. “If I had to pick out one person to thank first for helping me achieve this wonderful result, it would be my mum, she’s one of the three teachers that taught, and she made me a better dancer because she pushed me more than the other teachers,” Callum said. Dancing from the age of three, Callum has won State Championships in his age group, eight times in a row. Leading up to Montreal, Callum trained 12 hours a week and even more if he had spare time. “I busked in the city leading up to worlds with my sister; we put some boards down and set up an i-pod dock,” Callum said. With an Irish and Scottish heritage, Callum said Irish dancing had helped him in other areas of his life as well.

Callum performed three dance routines on the world stage and said many people didn’t realise how popular the sport is.

“People don’t know how big it is around the world, it’s a lot bigger than they think it is.” With dancing friends in America, Scotland and England, Callum is hoping to compete until he is 18 years old and work hard to fulfil his dream of a professional dancing career.

MENTAL well-being is a topic that needs to be discussed regularly and openly, according to Narre Warren Lions Club president Lorraine Riches. This is a big reason why Ms Riches helped organise a special information session on depression at the Casey council chambers last month in conjunction with the Narre Warren Lions Club and Beyondblue and supported by local and state politicians. The Pakenham and Endeavour Hills Lions clubs, and the Berwick Lionesses also lent their support to the event. It comes as Beyondblue and the Lions Clubs of Australia joined forces last year to create the Joining Hands initiative, a project which will focus on raising awareness around anxiety and depression. The Casey event included presentations from guest speaker Tony Wynd, Monash Health representatives and Ms Riches herself - who reflected on her late mother’s battle with depression. “I think it is very crucial, very vital, to get out there that you don’t have to be a health professional to get out and talk about it,” Ms Riches said after the event. “The Federal Government organises R U OK day, but instead of just one day in September, let’s make it every day.” Working as a nurse, Lorraine said she continually saw how depression and anxiety could leave victims helpless and not

Smart arm of the law By LACHLAN MOORHEAD POLICE Minister Wade Noonan has applauded the efforts of the Narre Warren PACER unit when he spoke exclusively to the News last week about law enforcement in the region. During a visit to the Narre Warren station on Thursday, Mr Noonan met with members of the PACER team - which pairs police officers with psychiatric nurses - to discuss the effectiveness of the unit. Since PACER was set up in Narre Warren in late 2011, it has seen more than 1500 cases. “Critically, they’ve been able to divert about 80 per cent of those situations from the need to be transported to hospital,” Mr Noonan said. “They are assessed on-site, wherever that may be, and with a mental health clinician there, advice has been provided, and referrals can be given,” he said. “This is for non-acute based mental health care. “Before a pacer model existed, police in a majority of cases would transport individuals to hospital and stay there for an average of two and half hours.” The Narre Warren PACER unit operates seven days a week from 3pm to 11pm and covers the Southern Metro Division 3, which includes Springvale, Dandenong, Narre Warren, Berwick, Pakenham and Cranbourne. Mr Noonan said the single Narre Warren PACER unit began as a trial and is now a permanent fixture.

Monash Health nurse Mick Rogers and Constable Tara Firth, both members of the Narre Warren Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Police PACER unit. 138434 But he said the government would look to start-up PACER teams in all metropolitan and rural regions in Victoria before looking into the viability of setting up more teams in Narre Warren and providing additional funding. Turning to other local issues, the minister applauded the policing of Anzac services in Melbourne’s south-east last weekend after three Casey teenagers were charged in relation to an alleged terrorist plot. He said police would continue to build relationships with youth from all “settings.”

Your Health Your Image

“Police have, right across Melbourne and Victoria, a strong program of building relationships with people from all settings, including multicultural settings, and I think the state’s expectation is that will continue,” Mr Noonan said. When asked about Casey Council’s push to have the Endeavour Hills station manned 24 hours a day, Mr Noonan said the decision lay ultimately with the police Commissioner. “It’s not for politicians to determine when stations are opening or closing,” he said.

“When these matters are raised with the local member or me, the minister, we refer them to the Chief Commissioner. “Police will police on intelligence and make a determination.” In response to calls for a completely new police station in Clyde to be built, led by Casey councillor Amanda Stapledon among others, Mr Noonan said the government would work closely with police when investigating the potential need for a new facility. He said the government wouldn’t “impose” stations on police that “may not be required.”

Indelible mark From page 1 Michalski’s BIG V coach Stewart Baird said Deb’s presence always energised the Cavaliers and her death rippled immeasurably throughout the south-east basketball community. “It had a massive impact - you only had to see the list of condolences to know the club just loved her as a person and loves Steve as well,” Baird said. “We all felt it - it really did hit a lot of people quite hard. “We all appreciate what a significant illness it is and everyone has been touched by it in some way.” Casey’s 2014 Mother’s Day event - spearheaded by Spinks - was a runaway success, raising over $6000 for the Breast Cancer Network Australia (BCNA). In Spinks’ honour, the Cavaliers have ensured her legacy will live on every Mother’s Day at The Fortress. The club has created the Deb Spinks Memorial MVP Trophy for the best Casey player from each team. “This year ... we’ve struck the three trophies in her honour for the best player in each of the games, and it will bring even more meaning to the whole event,” Baird said. Michalski wanted to thank the Cavaliers community for their continued support of his family through a difficult period. “I’d like to thank everyone for their support - it means a great deal to myself personally, and I’m sure everyone else who has had a family encounter with breast cancer would appreciate it as well,” Michalski said. Casey Cavaliers will host a triple-header on Saturday night from 4pm, as part of the Ballin’ for Breast Cancer event. More information about the event can be found by searching for “Ballin’ for Breast Cancer 2015” on Facebook.

Forehead lesion suspicious for lentigo maligna.

MOST freckles are benign - simply the effects of many years of sun exposure. However, a small minority are thin, slow growing melanomas – so called ‘lentigo maligna’. Beware of any freckle that is slowly growing or darkening over the years. Sometimes comparisons with older photographs on a phone digital camera can tell if a lesion is enlarging. If in doubt, consult a doctor. Slow growing though they are, lentigo maligna will eventually become invasive and become as dangerous as any other melanoma.

OFF TO A FLYING START FROM PAGE 1. THE launch of a new residential community is generally accompanied by a combination of anticipation, excitement and nerves. And so it was with the launch of Villawood Properties’ Delaray community in Clyde North. Any potential fears were misplaced, however, with impressive levels of interest in the first stage of this project which, upon completion, will feature more than 1000 homes. The less than ideal weather conditions proved no deterrent to a steady stream of potential residents and the high levels of interest have continued. While Delaray has much to commend it location, quality housing mix, extensive public open space, including wetlands - it was the exclusive residents’ club which has thus far proved the main talking point and attraction. A large proportion of the initial purchasers have cited the club as

their main motivation for buying. “People are attracted to the residents’ club for two main reasons. “Firstly, it comes with an amazing array of features such as the swimming pools, gymnasium café and parents’ lounge, to name a few,” said Villawood Properties executive director Tony Johnson. “But more than that, the strong feedback we’re getting is that potential residents see the club as the perfect way for them to immerse themselves into their new community. “This is precisely the aim we set out to achieve when we design our communities - the combination of great housing, great amenity as well as public spaces, indoors and out, where residents can engage with their community. “Even at this very early stage, Delaray is showing every sign of delivering on this.” For inquiries contact Nabil Harb at the Delaray sales office on 9684 8128. 1183355

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST Staff from Highview Accounting Services celebrate their Casey Cardinia Business Awards 2014 Overall Winner victory. 129075

Time to glorify ventures CARDINIA and Casey businesses can put their hand up for recognition as the best in their fields. Applications for this year’s Casey Cardinia Business Awards close at 5pm on Friday 15 May. Cardinia mayor Leticia Wilmot said the awards celebrated and developed businesses. “The awards offer a chance to get recognised and rewarded for your hard work, innovation and contribution to the region,” she said. Cr Wilmot said there’d already been some great applications. “We would love to hear from more businesses of all sizes whose passion and commitment make our region such a unique place to live, work and employ,” she said. She said members of the community could also nominate their favourite local business for the new People’s Choice Award. Casey Mayor Mick Moreland said the awards were a great opportunity for businesses to promote

what they do. “And with $15,000 worth of cash and prizes on offer, there’s an added incentive to get your applications in,” he said. “The application process in itself is very valuable as it provides a wonderful opportunity to reflect on and review your businesses and requires you to step back and strategically review your business and its future.” This year’s categories are People’s Choice Award; Casey Cardinia Business of the Year; Agriculture and Food; Business and Professional Services; Health, Education and Well-being; Home-based Business; Hospitality; Manufacturing; New Business; Retail; Social Enterprise; Tourism; Trades and Construction; and Environmental Sustainability. Winners will be announced at the Gala Awards Dinner on Thursday 22 October. Visit www.caseycardinia.com. au/businessawards to apply.

Slow superhighway By CASEY NEILL A HALLAM business is spending $3000 a month on internet access that the National Broadband Network could deliver for hundreds. Wastech Engineering business systems co-ordinator David Elliott said connecting businesses should be the priority for NBN Co. “It really does put a big dampener on businesses, especially in this area,” he said. “We have a CAD (computer-aided design) drawing department. “We’re constantly sending and receiving drawings between customers and suppliers and ourselves so that we get the products right first time.” Mr Elliott said uploading one 400mb file could take two hours with a standard connection. “We can upload that file in about 10 minutes,” he said. “An hour later the whole job is drawn, signed off, instead of having to wait days between revisions. “It still allows us to connect to the internet as quickly as we need to, but that’s only because we’re spending a fortune to do so.” His comments followed a report from Southern Melbourne Regional Development Australia (RDA) Committee and the Greater Dandenong, Kingston and Frankston councils released on 27 April. It found slow internet was costing

business in the south east more than 1000 jobs and $8.4 million in yearly growth. They are using the results to urge NBN Co to review its rollout priorities to industrial areas throughout the south east. The report, based on a survey of 322 businesses that employ more than 6500 people, concluded that inadequate internet access was constraining innovation. More than 70 per cent of respondents said their productivity would improve by up to 20 per cent if they were connected to high speed broadband. More than 25 per cent would seriously consider relocating to access it and two thirds were unhappy with their current internet service. Southern Melbourne RDA committee member Tony Lupton wants the report to change the narrative about NBN. “It’s not just about downloading movies,” he said. Fellow member Lyndon Joss said NBN Co had to achieve connection targets and that domestic connections were easier and faster to complete. “Businesses are not getting the connection they need and they’re suffering,” he said. Mr Joss said some businesses were spending thousands of dollars - sometimes more than $20,000 - to install their own improved internet connections. “They can’t wait any more because they can’t get any information about when it’ll go in,” he said.

A Wastech worker. 135238 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS An NBN Co spokesperson said the company’s goal was to make fast broadband available to all Australian homes and businesses by 2020. “Economic and physical resource constraints prevent us connecting everyone at the same time,” a statement said. “As a result, we must build the network in a systematic, efficient and cost effective manner. “We are working hard to do this as quickly as possible and at least cost to Australians. “Ultimately, nobody will miss out.” View the full report at www.rdv.vic. gov.au/smrda.

‘Dil’ business proves far from dull By CASEY NEILL NARRE Warren businesses, a Sri Lankan-born comedian and a Cantonese banquet combined this week. The Narre Warren Region Business Group held a networking evening at Ming Palace in Narre Warren with Dilruk ‘Dil’ Jayasinha as their guest, fresh from a 22-show run at this year’s Melbourne International Comedy Festival. “I only found out 10 months after I arrived here that dill is stupid in Australia,” Dil said. Dil spoke about applying for work as an accountant following in the wake of an investigation that found resumes of applicants with foreign names fared better with ‘Aussie’ names attached. He decided to be as Aussie as possible - quoting classic Aussie movie The Castle without having seen it was

the tip of the iceberg. “I even dropped a strewth during an interview,” he said. “They had such low expectations of me that I looked like a rock star. “I was Susan Boyle.” NWRBG acting president Ross Neilson said there were 18,000 businesses in Casey but NWRBG had only 35 financial members. “We are trying to build up our membership,” he said. “Spread the word and sign up people to come along. “You do get business out of it.” NWRBG grew from the Narre Warren Chamber of Commerce and now supports and represents businesses of all shapes and sizes from Narre Warren and surrounds. Member Ray Keefe from Success-

The new Berwick Land Rover and Jaguar dealership. Comedian Dilruk Jayasinha with Ross Neilson. 138660 ful Endeavours in Berwick said the group’s membership was from a diverse range of businesses. “There are always interesting people in the room,” he said. “It makes you think about what you’re doing through a different lens.” Visit www.narrewarrenbusiness. com.au for more information.

Kumon way is catching on A CHILD who happily starts homework without being asked is just a dream for many parents. But after Megan enrolled her daughter, Alicia, into the Kumon programme last year, that’s exactly what happens every day. “I don’t even have to help her with her sums now,” Megan said. “She does it herself and if she gets some wrong, I’ll go through it with her and then she will correct her own mistakes.” Megan enrolled her daughter during the 2014 Kumon Free Trial. Alicia is now in Year 1 and already learning maths concepts ahead of her grade level.

“After the first day of school, the teacher said to me that Alicia is fantastic at calculating maths,” Megan said. “My children are just like any other child, but it just goes to show you, when you put in the effort, there are rewards. With Kumon, they’re learning to apply themselves and how to persevere.” A two-week Kumon Free Trial is being held between 18-31 May. With Kumon centres in Cranbourne, Berwick, Narre Warren, Narre Warren South and Hampton Park, find the one closest to you by calling 1800 458 666. Free Trial registrations close 11 May and places are limited.

Jaguar, Rover closer to home BERWICK is home to Australia’s newest Jaguar and Land Rover dealership. The HFH Auto Group opened Land Rover Berwick on the corner of Princes Highway and Clyde Road on Friday 1 May. The family owned business has been around for almost 20 years and has five other dealerships. Spokeswoman Fleur Draper said

dealership general manager James Bonnett and his team had more than 17 years’ experience in the auto industry. Land Rover and Jaguar servicing as well as sales will be available from the site, which Ms Draper said was temporary. “We have plans of expanding over the next few years,” she said.

Students from Prep to Grade 6 burning some energy before a healthy start to their school day.

Pumped up for breakfast EXERCISE followed by a healthy breakfast is on the menu at Devon Meadows Primary School. Forty five students from Prep to Grade 6 are a part of the school’s new breakfast club which is being held every Wednesday for the next five weeks. Wednesday 22 April was the first time the school had run the breakfast club with a difference and assistant principal Brendan McDonough said he was more than pleased with the healthy lifestyle program. “It starts at 8am with exercise activities that run for half an hour while parents and teachers start cooking toast

and getting breakfast ready,” he said. Mr McDonough said the exercise is meant to be fun and activities include skipping, tiggy, dance and obstacle courses. “The breakfast club was mother and school canteen volunteer Michelle Strotten’s idea,” Mr McDonough said. Ms Strotten’s five children have all attended the school and over the past 15 years she has noticed many hungry students coming to the canteen during recess because they hadn’t eaten breakfast. “Some parents said they couldn’t

get their child to eat breakfast or that they didn’t have enough time and once a child sees another child eating breakfast it can encourage them to eat, too,” she said. Ms Strotten approached Mr McDonough with her breakfast club idea and they planned the six week lifestyle program, which will start up again in term four. “I think even the teachers have noticed students’ concentration levels have improved and on the first day all the kids were so happy and smiling,” Ms Strotten said. - Georgia Westgarth

IN 1970 20-year-old Don Edwards received the letter that many dreaded - he’d been called up to do National Service with the Australian Army. The war in Vietnam was well underway and he found himself in Nui Dat. Fast forward to 2015 and Don and his wife Jenny are well-respected members of the Saffron Grove Retirement Village at Hallam, where they have lived since 2009. This month the well-liked veteran is set to receive a quilt from Quilts of Valour, an organisation formed to present quilts to service members of the ADF in recognition of their sacrifice for Australia while deployed on combat operations. “In January 1970, at the age of 20, I received a letter to notify me that I had been called up to do National Service with the Australian Army. “I guess it was something all us guys at that age were fearful about receiving,” Don, who served in the Army from 26 November 1970 until 16 October 1971, said. “I started off doing six weeks recruit training at Puckapunyal, Victoria, then went onto Corp Training at Singleton in NSW, which then led me to Ingleburn in NSW for assault pioneer training then to Canungra Queensland to the Jungle Training Centre then completed my training back at Ingleburn. “Approximately after six months of training they then flew me to Vietnam where I arrived at the Reinforcement Training Unit in Nui Dat, then I

Left is Wyn Roper (President, Quilts of Valour Australia) and right is Helen Comport (Secretary and Founder of Quilts of Valour Australia). 138474 was attached to 7 RAR where I completed their tour then transferred to 3 RAR. “During the time in Vietnam I worked as an assault pioneer which included mine clearance, regular patrols in extreme conditions such as heat and rain. “Two close comrades of mine were killed by exploding mines whilst on sentry duty, others wounded by shrapnel around me, I guess it was my lucky day that I didn’t get hit. “Days turned into weeks, weeks turned into months, it was horrible. “I guess we all missed the comforts of home as the conditions were poor. “It wasn’t unusual to find ourselves wading through swamps with our entire clothing saturated - which caused health issues. “Prior to arriving in Vietnam, the Americans sprayed the fields with Agent Orange. “At the time we were un-

aware of the consequences of this until after we returned home and later on in our life we had to be tested to make sure we were all clear. “After I completed my tour in Vietnam, I was transferred to HMAS Sydney and homeward bound to Adelaide then discharged from the Army at Watsonia, Melbourne. “My experience in the Army was somewhat challenging in many ways as I have suffered from depression, different medical conditions etc, but I have been able to overcome all this with a loving family, a good wife and two great children supporting me all the way.” He can now also add the support of his friends at Saffron Grove. Don will be presented with his quilt by Helen Comport, whose own son was injured in a Black Hawk helicopter crash. Saffron Grove is situated at 8 Saffron Drive, Hallam.

Eagles new ‘Beau’ chapter By DAVID NAGEL REIGNING premier Beaconsfield has sent shockwaves through the ranks of the South East Football League with the signing of former Hawthorn keyforward Beau Dowler for the remainder of the 2015 season. The 27-year-old, who went pick six behind Marc Murphy, Dale Thomas, Xavier Ellis, Josh Kennedy and Scott Pendlebury in the highly-touted 2005 AFL draft, put pen to paper at 3pm on Sunday after a tour of the Holm Park Road facilities. He trained with the Eagles for the first time on Tuesday and will make his debut in Saturday’s grand-final rematch against Cranbourne at Casey Fields. The versatile 196cm star won three league best and fairest awards with Silverton in the South East Junior Football League before moving to Noble Park, and then to the Oakleigh Chargers in the TAC Cup. Dowler proved himself one of the finest young talents in the country, earning All-Australian selection after a dominant carnival for Vic Metro in its successful 2005 Under-18 National Championship campaign. He debuted for Hawthorn in 2006, but played just 16 games in five years with injuries, and a lack of opportunity behind Lance Franklin and Jarryd Roughead, seeing him play most his time with the Hawks at Box Hill. He was delisted by Hawthorn at the end of 2010, played in a premiership with Noble Park in 2011, before signing with Sandringham, and was announced captain of the Zebras for the 2012 season. He moves to Beaconsfield after three years with Sandringham and can’t wait to take up the challenge.

“It’s really exciting, for the last couple of days all I’ve wanted to do is get down to the club and meet everyone,” Dowler said. “From what I’ve been told it seems like a great club, and coming from the VFL, hopefully I can pass on a bit of experience and learn a bit more about the league. “I’m just excited about meeting new people and getting involved in the club’s culture and to start playing some good footy. “The club won a premiership last year, so it seems like a pretty good fit.” Dowler plays golf at Cardinia Beaconhills with former Beaconsfield player and current assistant-coach Andrew Williams. The two have been in discussion for some time about Dowler making the move but only recently has that discussion become serious. He also has connections with some current-day Eagles, having played at Box Hill with Shaun Pollard and a year at Noble Park with Tyson Mitchem. He says the time is right for a step back from one of the elite levels of the game. “Yeah, that’s probably how I see it; the VFL was getting pretty hard, pretty demanding as I got older and you find yourself running around with a lot young guys,” he said. “At the same time, I loved every minute of it and everything that I got out of it. “It’s probably coming towards the end of my career but I still feel like I’ve got plenty more to give.” Dowler rates his AFL debut against Fremantle, at Subiaco in 2006, and his time playing for Australia against Ireland in 2004 as highlights of a career that he has no regrets with. “Absolutely, it was a dream come

true playing in the AFL and I’ve represented my country,” he said. “I had five great years at Hawthorn… have no regrets.” Beaconsfield president Gary Valentine said the club was delighted to secure the services of a quality individual, both on and off the field. “We’re absolutely rapt that Beau has decided to start a new chapter in his career with the Beaconsfield Football Club,” Valentine said. “He has some friends here at Beaconsfield, and he wanted to come to us, which makes the whole thing even more exciting. “We’re obviously looking forward to what he can bring to the team, but he’s also a terrific bloke and we’re confident he’ll fit in with what we’re trying to achieve here at Beaconsfield.”

Former Hawthorn key-forward Beau Dowler will bring plenty of excitement to the South East Football League on Saturday when he makes his debut for Beaconsfield against Cranbourne. 138572 Pictures: CONTRIBUTED

Ben Louis… done deal By JARROD POTTER SIGNING season isn’t over for the Casey Cavaliers with the Big V Division-1 men’s side adding former SEABL guard Ben Louis to its roster. With a resume as long as his three-point bombs - playing basketball in college for James Madison University before joining Dandenong SEABL and Frankston SEABL - Louis is the next in a long line of ex-Dandenong SEABL players to be enticed down the highway and join the Big V. The 191cm guard is raring to go in the Cavaliers’ strip and Casey coach Stewart Baird said it all happened quickly to get him into the blueand-silver for the remainder of the 2015 season. “Ben agreed on Tuesday night and was at practice and we got his clearance and registration processed this morning (Thursday),” Baird said. With Louis leaving Frankston and considering some time out of the game, he kept in touch with Baird about the prospects of practicing with the side to stay fit and focused. The coach offered him a far better opportunity, though, giving Louis the option to join the side if he wanted. The offer didn’t wait on the table long and Louis gained his clearance to play and will be ready to square off for Casey on the weekend. “For his own reasons he decided he wasn’t

going to play at Frankston and was going to take a year off, but asked me if he could come down to our practice,” Baird said. “It’s always good to have an experienced guy on court at practice that the other guys can work off and I said to him afterwards ‘I don’t know what you’re thinking about playing, but if you start to think you’d like to, let me know’ and he reached out to me last week. “I went back to him on Monday and we talked about it and he was keen to go - he’s played with both (Brent) Hobba and (Matt) Witherden before and he’s pretty close to both of them so it’s a good fit for him and he feels really comfortable… he’s certainly going to be helpful.” Baird hopes to run Louis primarily as the side’s point-guard but the Dandenong/Frankston alumnus has the added flexibility to feature as a shooting-guard or small forward. “He gives us a bigger guard who is able to defend some of the guys we’ve struggled with like Max Allin and Corey Standerfer at Chelsea,” Baird said. “He’s a great defender and takes a lot of pride in his defence… we need a bigger guy to combat those guys if we’re to be successful.” Louis joined former Rangers Matt Witherden, Lester Strong and Brent Hobba among others in his first Big V match for the Casey Cavaliers across the weekend.

Ben Louis, pictured playing for Casey on the weekend, is the latest signing to the powerpacked Cavaliers’ roster. 138523 Picture: JARROD POTTER

Should’ve and could’ve but… By JARROD POTTER BOMBED from the sky by the Scorpions’ tall-timber, Essendon VFL was no match for Casey in a 34-point demolition. Windy Hill was a happy hunting ground for the Scorpions as a power-packed third term iced the match. After a back-and-forth first half - with Casey heading into the main break only five points ahead - the club put together what coach Justin Plapp considered their “best quarter of footy for the year without a doubt”. The Scorpions stormed past the Bombers to drill seven goals and dominate all facets of the match - tackling, contested possession, uncontested possession and mostly - inside-50s which gave the side an emphatic 27 scoring shots. The Scorpions withdrew from their peak intensity in the final term, as Essendon prettied up the final score, kicking five goals. “It was probably more based around the contest,” Plapp said. “Our tackling was pretty strong - we tackled at a pretty high percentage and catching the ball forward - some of our bigger key forwards - Gawn, Spencer, Tim smith - all started catching the footy and put the opposition under a great deal of pressure. “Realistically we probably should have won by more dropped the foot off the pedal a bit out of complacency.” The coach praised Melbourne quartet Aiden Riley (27 possessions, 10 tackles), Max Gawn (11 marks, three goals), Matt Jones (28 possessions) and Alex Neale-Bullen - who made an immediate impression through the midfield in his first match since joining the Demons

Casey coach Justin Plapp has his side up-and-firing following a 34-point triumph over Essendon. 137845 Picture: JARROD POTTER in last year’s draft. The defence didn’t escape the coach’s gaze either, as Plapp thought his ruck/forward turned centre-half-back Jack Fitzpatrick was strong down back alongside captain Evan Panozza. Flying up the ladder to second position - the first time Casey has been at the VFL apex since 2013 - Plapp thinks the side is firing in all facets and probably should be top-of-theladder had they showed true colours against Footscray last week. “We should easily be 3-0… should’ve and could’ve,” Plapp said. “If we had taken our chances against the Bulldogs we could easily be three and zip, but we’re happy with where we’re at and a lot can change with the alignments and injury.” Casey will hope to stabilise

its position when it hosts Sandringham from 12pm on Saturday afternoon.

Flying home new colours By JARROD POTTER VWFL REVIEW - ROUND 2 IF THE first match at home is any indication, expect Endeavour Hills to rampage through the Victorian Women’s Football League following their massive 113-point win over Seaford. From the first bounce, the Division-3 match belonged to the Falcons - who are out to make their home ground at Barry Simon Reserve an impenetrable fortress. Outside of a consolation behind, the Tigers were no match for the high-flying Falcons who added their second win from two matches in the VWFL’s Division-3 competition. Across all lines Endeavour Hills starred and it had plenty of reasons to push the boundaries in the first home game for the club. “It was also the first time wearing the green and gold strip - making it doubly important for the Falcons to fly home to victory,” Haughton said. “The Division-3 girls in particular were revved up - after wearing a clash jersey in the first round we really built this one up. “First game at home, first in the proper colours - in the rooms before the match we didn’t need to talk to them much about motivation. “The girls were ready to rock when they got out the door.” Endeavour Hills established a strong-break with a five-goal opening term - spearheaded by full-forward Siona Pilkington who drilled three goals in the opening term on her way to

Set up by the fleet-footed midfielders Jess Wallace and captain Maria Pickering, the Falcons soared away at all breaks to finish up 16.14 (114) to 0.1 (1) by the final siren. “It was pretty slick and the best thing was the girls were learning a new game-style,” Haughton said. “They adapted and in the coaches’ box we saw a lot of that training coming out.” Knocking in 28 goals in its first two outings, the Falcons have shown a hunger. “We kick them from anywhere,” Haughton said. “Our forwards are great, our centre players can run down and we’ve got goal kickers on the half-back flank and we’re pretty blessed.“Thought it looked amazing but we can improve we’re certainly not at our peak yet.”

Haughton praised Pilkington - the Falcons’ forward focal point who clutched marks and kicked her goals from set shots and in open-play - as well as the skipper Pickering among others. In an impressive day for the club the Falcons’ seconds also won, defeating Montmorency in a rescheduled East Division clash. They face Rosebud at home this Sunday from 2pm. In other VWFL results, Cranbourne easily knocked off Bendigo - even with a huge road-trip to Kangaroo Flat - in a 40-point trouncing. Bianca Jakobsson (four goals) starred in the win alongside Rachael Hunt and Cara Moody. It was a tougher outing for the Division 3 Eagles on Saturday with Kew proving too strong for the Eagles seconds in a 2.3 (15) to 8.13 (61) defeat.

Hunted become the hunters By JARROD POTTER ATHLETIC. Hard-Running. Determined. Make no bones about it Vic Metro Youth Girls have not crossed the country for a friendly run-around against the likes of Western Australia, Queensland and Vic Country. They’re out for vengeance and coach Wayne Seikman knows this week is about returning the silverware to Victoria - gleefully taken last year by Western Australia in a hardfought grand final. “It’s good that we can hunt now - we’re not the hunted - we can go over there and hunt WA, rather than every other team wanting to beat Vic Metro,” Siekman said. “They all have to worry about WA and that’s a great position for us and the girls.” With Mandurah Oval geographically outranking the MCG, the need for fast players who can run all week - let alone just for a single match - was crucial and Siekman and his assistant coaches have assembled the most athletic Vic Metro side in many years. “We wanted to pick an athletic, running side as the ground we’re playing on is 166m which is bigger than the MCG,” Siekman said. “We wanted someone that can run all day and play four games in five days, so we’ve

found that great balance and also got some great depth in our midfield - which we haven’t had for a few years - and some good talent coming through.” Seikman praised the South East Juniors contingent in the representative colours - especially one of his side’s co-captains Lauren Hojnacki. “She’ll be a key forward and pinch-hit in the ruck,” Siekman said. “Today (Monday) - being one of the captains - she’ll start

in the ruck and get involved form the start and get forward.” Another to impress from the south east will be Cranbourne’s Georgia Gourlay - an “elite kick and great decision maker” according to the coach as he looks to cultivate the midfielder’s defensive prowess in years to come, off the half-back line. The coach is also impressed with the young stars from Lyndhurst - Logan O’Connell-Webb and Emily-Rose Browning both fledging state representatives making their way at the national level. “This week is really good for Logan - she’s a very smart footballer, small and there’s not a lot of her, but she makes up for it with her footy smarts and gets in the right spots at the right time,” Siekman said. “Emily-Rose Browning - it’s hard to describe her as she’s such a great inside mid - hard and tough - and only fourteenyears-old. “I would think she’s 16 the way she plays.” Vic Metro started its campaign against Western Australia as the Gazette was going to press, with matches against Queensland and Vic Country scheduled for later in the week week. All going to plan Vic Metro can make its way back to the grand final on Friday, which is scheduled at 5.45pm Melbourne time.

A job for the big boys By DAVID NAGEL

Mick Fogarty’s charges bounced back this week as Noble Park thumped Knox. 138170 Picture: JARROD POTTER

Bulls are rushing in By JARROD POTTER EFL DIVISION 1 - ROUND 4 THE FALCONS could only hold the gate shut for so long against the Bulls. Noble Park - held to only three goals in the first term - made its charge in the second half as it conversely negated anything Knox had in its trick bag. Keeping the visitors to four points after half-time, the Bulls excelled at negating any Knox initiative and effortlessly rebounding. A slow-and-steady chip-away effort pushed the Bulls away to a 60-point win by the final change as Ziggie Alwan (three goals) and Kevin Kean (two goals) took charge of the forward line. While he didn’t boot a bag this week, Kyle Martin remained the elite threat of the Bulls’ attack as he streamed through the midfield, ably aided by Craig Anderson and the run-and-carry of defenders Stewart Kemperman and Jackson Sketcher. Sitting in third with a 3-1 record, Noble Park will head to North Ringwood this weekend to face the fifth ranked Saints. SFL DIVISION 2 - ROUND 4 The non-Fevola SFL action continued around the league as Keysborough kept its unbeaten start to SFL life going. Keysborough continued its rampaging entrance to Division 2, taking four on the trot with a 12.14 (86) to 9.12 (66) win over Caulfield. Tyson King continued to make SFL forward lines his dominion - booting four goals - while Michael Downie, Matt Burnett and Mathew Collett also impressed. While Springvale Districts accounted for Doveton Eagles with a scintillating first term - as the Demons kicked away to a 38-point to nil lead. The Eagles fought back through Corrie Wilson (five goals) and John Kennedy (three goals), but the Demons had enough in the tank to keep the visitors on the back-foot. DIVISION 3 Endeavour Hills will feel slighted that 104 points wasn’t enough for victory over a fast-running Moorabbin, who themselves booted 150. In an absolute shoot-out, Shane Peake (six goals), Daniel Morrison and Luke Knudsen (three goals each) helped keep the Falcons in the fight as the Kangaroos hopped away early. The Falcons couldn’t hunt down a 10-goal deficit at the final break and despite a flying sixgoal end, Endeavour Hills was left ashenfaced after the hard slog. Nathan Strom was superb for the Falcons while Cade Marshall and Ben Moriarty also featured prominently. The tough slog of SFL existence continued for Hallam with a 61-point loss to Black Rock.

REIGNING premier Beaconsfield and its big-name recruit Beau Dowler face a huge challenge this week when they travel to Casey Fields to take on Cranbourne in the SEFL matchof-the-day. Beaconsfield coach Clint ‘Boof’ Evans and his side like to fly under the radar, we all know that, but the signing of Dowler, combined with a 13-game winning streak that dates back to round 12 last year means the number one mantle sits firmly on its back. Beaconsfield seemed to work out the secret to success against Cranbourne last year. Downed by 10 point in its round six engagement at Casey Fields, Boof and his boys returned serve with a nine-goal victory at Holm Park Road before two comprehensive wins, in the qualifying final, and then the one that really matters. Will Simon Goosey’s team defence stand up, or will Beaconsfield’s all-over-the-ground depth claim its 14th victim on the trot? It’s Beaconsfield by four goals. Round 3 Review Berwick’s first win this season may be its most important in years - the Wickers’ new recruits starring in a 49-point victory over Narre Warren at Edwin Flack Reserve. The Wickers have had a tough draw, there’s no doubt about that, but losing to last year’s grand finalists Beaconsfield and Cranbourne had left them vulnerable heading into a game against the dominant team of the last decade. But Berwick put its stamp on things early. The Wickers controlled the contest in the first term, slotting 7.2 to 1.0 and out-pressuring a team that has made that part of the game an art-form in recent years.

The Magpies fought back, as you would expect, but the Wickers put the foot down in the second half, kicking nine goals to three to draw a huge sigh of relief from the club. “It certainly is, it’s a big relief, and not just to win, but to do it against a quality side like Narre always makes it that little bit sweeter,” assistant-coach Jason Kelly said. Former West Coast Eagle Ash Smith played his best game for the club; dominating across half back, while five goals to Ben Kearns and a brilliant defensive display at full-back from Michael Riseley proved the Wickers’ recruiting campaign has been right on the mark. Mitch Johnson kicked three for the Wickers while rover Dylan Quirk was a standout for the Magpies.

Reigning-premier Beaconsfield has extended its winning streak to 13 with a stress-free 25-point victory over Doveton at Holm Park Reserve. The margin would suggest a tight contest, but the Eagles led by 40 points at the final break before the Doves brought some respectability to the scoreboard in the final term. Taylor Joyce with four goals, and Damien Johnston and Chris Worner with three, were dynamite up forward for the Eagles, while Johnston and Lachlan Modica were best around the ground. Mitch Viney and ruckman Russell Gabriel, who had a great battle with Scott Meyer, were best for the Doves, while Ricky Hayes joined Joyce at the top of the league goal-kicking list with four goals for the visitors.

Pies impress over Berwick By DAVID NAGEL NEW Narre Warren netball coach Jade Heinrich is delighted that her unsung heroes got a chance to shine in the Magpies’ impressive 46-28 victory over Berwick at Edwin Flack Reserve on Saturday. The Magpies had Tayla Shannon, Kara Hargrave, Elly Stewart and Brittany Mashado all sitting on the sidelines but still found a way to win all four-quarters of netball. “I was really happy with the girls, who haven’t had much court time this season,” Jade said. “It was great that some of the girls had the opportunity to play a half, and others a full game of netball. “Courtney Phelps played three quarters, Demi Brettoner played a full game in wing attack, and Caitlin Stephens, she’s an under-17 player who came up and played half a game in goal defence. She turned the ball over a couple of times and ran the ball out of defence really well. She was quite impressive.” The Magpies, who bounced out of the blocks with a 16 to 10 goal first term, also had Erin Clark and captain Leigh Taylor in fine form through the midcourt. Doveton has bounced back from a topsy-turvy start to the season, reminding everybody of its true premiership credentials with a dominant 25-goal victory over Beaconsfield at Holm Park Reserve.

The Doves, who triumphed over the Eagles in last year’s grand final, were slow to begin with, trailing by two goals at quarter time, before unleashing their full force in the second and fourth quarters. They piled on 21 goals to 10 in the second term, to take a nine-goal lead into half time, before extending an eight-goal three-quarter-time lead into a comprehensive victory with a 25-goal final term. Beaconsfield will be happy that it outscored the Doves in two quarters, but disappointed that its defence fell apart when the Doves applied the screws. Hannah Blair, Kaela Hughes and Erin Tippett all tried their hearts out for the Eagles. In this week’s games, two premiership fancies, Doveton and Hampton Park, go toe-to-toe at Robinson Oval. The rise of these two sides has been well documented, the Doves rising from the ashes in 2013 to win last year’s title, while the Redbacks have taken a similar approach, investing heavily in what looks to be a similar campaign. The Redbacks have Chloe Birch, Cathy Leeves and Zoe Ryde-Coad providing a solid foundation this season, while the Doves have Cara Humbert, Liz Edwards and Kate Murphy doing likewise at Robinson Oval. In other games, Narre Warren hosts Tooradin, Cranbourne welcomes Beaconsfield to Casey Fields and ROC and Berwick does battle at Starling Road. Pakenham has the bye.

NOT many people would have expected Hallam Senior College to join an elite New South Wales Schoolboys rugby league competition, but through a unique set of circumstances the unlikely scenario has become reality. With traditional rugby league school Holy Cross College - Ryde, in Sydney’s inner suburbs, bowing out of this year’s GIO Cup over uncertainty about its competitiveness, it left an opening in the 12-team competition. While most Sydneysiders would have looked for another NSW team from the GIO Trophy, the powers that be instead looked to Victoria to find a suitable replacement. Hallam Senior College was that lucky school, earning an invite to take Holy Cross’s place in the competition - and Hallam’s rugby academy coach Jamie Fardell said it was just reward for many successful campaigns in the GIO Trophy. “There are 12 teams that compete in this in NSW and it is invite only, so you have to perform pretty well in the Trophy division to even be considered,” Fardell said. “We were semi-finalists last year in the trophy and quarter-finalists the three years before that and that’s a knockout competition of 300 schools, so for us to be good at that for the last four years it shows we’re ready to step up.” After many years of hard work alongside initial academy coach Travis McIntosh - Fardell was thrilled to see Victoria get a chance to mark itself on the rugby league map and it was due to the hard work of staff and

Hallam Senior College’s rugby academy - with players from last year’s Victorian sides pictured - is off Picture: JARROD POTTER to New South Wales to compete in the GIO Cup for schoolboys. 121430 players - from NRL level all the way down through the ranks. “Between myself and Travis Mcintosh - he started this academy - it’s been a pipe dream of ours since I joined in 2010 to get to here (GIO Cup),” Fardell said. “It comes on the back of a lot of hard work, recruiting, and looking after kids, connections with their outside rep programs and it’s due to every boy that has come through here. “I hope to see a lot of them come to our home game and they’re the reason we’re here - they’ve been fantastic since I’ve been here in 2010 and every boy who has come

through the program I’ve been proud of. “Not just the ones that go to the NRL but the ones that flourish and get better at all levels too.” Fardell is unsure whether Hallam Senior College is invited to the competition just for 2015 or beyond, but he believes the growth of rugby league - especially in Victoria - will have organisers keen to keep the south-east Melbourne school around. “They said you’re in and they haven’t said anything yet about next year,” Fardell said. “I know the people that are running this competition have a big eye

on the development on the game and Victoria is a big part of that. “When people talk about Victorian schoolboys, they know that we’re number one.” Hallam is set to play its debut match in the GIO Cup on 20 May in Sydney before hosting a homeclash on Monday 15 June - either at Gosch’s Paddock or potentially AAMI Park as a curtain-raiser to the Melbourne Storm/Parramatta Eels NRL match. Applications for the school’s 2016 rugby academy intake are currently open and for more information, visit the Hallam Senior College website www.hallamssc.vic.edu.au

Road seasoned Cavaliers By JARROD POTTER EXACTING some form of revenge for last year’s BIG V grand-final loss, Casey had to battle through overtime but was able to knock off Shepparton 92-85 as the burgeoning rivalry continues to blossom. Casey got out of the blocks early as Brent Hobba (35 points, 13 rebounds) lit up the scoreboard with 14-of-24 field shooting. Hobba’s monster haul was well complemented by Dean Johnson (13 points, 6 rebounds) and Bevan Camilleri (11 points) to keep the Gators at bay. Shepparton rallied to fight their way back into the Saturday night blockbuster, with the lead going back-and-forth before scores locked on the final buzzer, forcing overtime. Stewart Baird’s brigade was able to chip away at the Gators through overtime as Hobba and Lester Strong (5 points, 6 rebounds) led the way in the absence of Casey’s usual lategame maestro Matt Witherden - who is currently nursing a leg injury. With the Saturday night/ Sunday afternoon double-header frantically forcing Casey to fang back down the Hume Freeway, not even five hours of round-trip travel the night before could stop the Cavaliers smashing Warrandyte 74-49. Baird gave his starters prolonged spells on the bench to rest up from the night before,

Aerial dog-fighting suited James Deneefe well as he flew past the Venom’s Brenton Charles in Casey’s emphatic Sunday victory. 138523

Picture: JARROD POTTER but it was a clinical full-team performance from his charges. New recruit Ben Louis (6 assists) was given the big defensive task on Warrandyte’s Martino Brock (9 points) and restricted the Venom scoringthreat to four-of-19 shooting. Hobba (18 points, 9 rebounds) pushed past 50 points for the weekend in another sublime performance from the versatile forward. Lester Strong (16 points, 10 rebounds) and Brad ‘Big Smile’ Szalek were tenacious on defence and kept the Venom offguard and scrambling in its key.

Strong, fresh off his wedding on Friday, should get married every week for the way it boosted his performance across the double-header. Baird said Casey’s last three wins - Warrandyte, Shepparton and La Trobe - show the Cavaliers are a side-to-beat in Division 1 even in their first season making the step up. “I’m so proud of the boys the last eight days starting last Saturday night where quality opposition in La Trobe, road trip last night, still a bit of angst around the place, they’ve just focused and locked in so well,” Baird said. “Could’ve probably collapsed when it went to overtime but dug in and won the overtime pretty conclusively. “Then to come out today (Sunday) - they’re (Warrandyte) missing their one big guy really - but they’re still a quality side and third on the ladder in our conference and it’s a great scalp to get… we’re really hitting our straps.” Not to be outdone by their senior club mates, Casey’s youth men pumped up the score to smash Warrandyte 101-50. All three Cavaliers teams will be at home this Saturday from 4pm for the Ballin’ for Breast Cancer triple-header. The Cavaliers trio will don the famous pink jerseys for the oneoff weekend to raise funds and promote awareness of breast cancer treatment and prevention.

Young at 100 A LOT has changed at Timbarra Junior Football Club throughout its six seasons in the South East Juniors, but there has been one constant knocking off game-after-game in pursuit of the Tornados’ first major milestone. Since the club’s inception - and the Tornados’ nomadic existence before Timbarra Reserve was completed in 2013 - Connor Olsson has been pulling on the boots and playing his part in Timbarra teams. This weekend was his time to be congratulated though as the young Tornados spearhead ran out for his 100th match - the first time a Timbarra player has reached the milestone. He’s been an important part of the purpleand-gold brigade since the first South East Juniors season in 2009 and has taken his career from under-9s all the way through to under-14s. Sadly Timbarra under-14s weren’t able to make it a magic milestone for Olsson - Berwick Springs spoiled the party knocking off the Tornados by 44 points. 138562 Picture: SUPPLIED

�� Reviews and news…

Lexus sharpens its image By EWAN KENNEDY THE three big German marques are at it hammer and tongs in the Australian sales race at the moment. No more so than in the crossover SUV field. The very British Land Rover is starting to get involved as well with its just introduced Discovery Sport. So it’s no surprise that Lexus has joined the fray with additional models, sharp pricing and a major advertising campaign. When launched the Lexus NX crossover came only as a hybrid, the NX 300h. Lexus NX 200t, the subject of this week’s road test, arrived a few months later and follows the European route of using a relatively small engine but turbocharging it to add power and, most importantly, plenty of torque. With a price list starting at $52,500 for the 2WD NX 200t, the new Lexus range is well priced in comparison with the German and British opposition. The 2.0-litre turbo-petrol four-cylinder Lexus engine has a power output of 175 kilowatts, and 350 Nm of torque. The latter is produced all the way from 1650 to 4000 rpm, a handy range for the average driver who seldom exceeds 4000 revs, so maximum grunt is there all the time. An automatic transmission with only six forward speeds is becoming relatively rare these days so some will feel the NX is behind the field in having one. Like many current SUVs the Lexus NX is sold with either two-wheel or four-wheel drive. However, the Australian importer has put its emphasis on all-wheel-drive so the 2WD comes in just the one spec level, the Luxury. The all-wheel drive comes as Luxu-

The radical shape of the all-new Lexus NX crossover will appeal to many. ry, F Sport and Sports Luxury variants. Our test car was the topline Luxury Sport. One of the first statements Akio Toyoda made when he took charge of Lexus was that he didn’t like his cars being described as conservative. That word will not be used when describing the Lexus NX. The huge ‘spindle grille’, deep swages in the doors and the sharp kickup at the rear are more likely to be called radical than conservative. Note that the high window-line created by this style may make it difficult for smaller children to see out. It might be an idea to take the littlies on your pre-purchase test drive to see what they see, or don’t see. Inside there’s the usual high quality Lexus design and materials set out in a design that’s not as radical as the exterior but which works well. The Lexus control system for the satellite navigation and other infotainment functions isn’t particularly easy to use although, presumably, regular owners of the cars will grow accus-

tomed to it. Lexus NX 200t Luxury and F Sport have a 10-speaker Pioneer audio system. There’s the option of a 14-speaker Mark Levinson system. The latter has Green Edge technology that produces double the output from the same amount of energy as conventional speakers. There’s Bluetooth audio streaming as well as two USB ports and an Aux port in the centre console box. The Aux can play video files through the multimedia display screen with a compatible four-pole cable. Lexus NX 200t has electronic safety features that include controlled braking, emergency brake signal, vehicle stability control, traction control, ABS brakes with brake assist and electronic brake-force distribution (EBD). A reversing camera is standard. Lexus Dynamic Torque Control in the AWD models helps maximise traction and cornering stability. LDW+ warns the driver if NX is about to cross lane markings without

using the turn signals. It also assists with steering to avoid lane departure. The front seats give occupants good room and provide support that’s aimed at touring rather than blasting around corners. Handling dynamics are safe and competent but this isn’t a sporty SUV in the manner of the Germans in this class. Lexus has made its name over the past 25 years by providing a quiet, smooth ride in a luxurious cabin. Lexus owners say their main interest in motoring is peaceful progress in real world driving conditions. Having lived with a Lexus in that manner for a whole week we certainly agree with them The rear seat provides good legroom for most adults, but some may have to ask the folks in front to give up a little of their legroom. This is hardly a criticism in this class of small-medium crossovers. Engine performance is good with-

out being outstanding in the Normal mode which is likely to be used by most owners - choosing Sport mode certainly livens it up. There’s some turbo lag in each mode but that’s inevitable in this sort of engine and the use of a twin-scroll turbo helps minimise it. Once the engine is fully boosted and the six-speed auto has selected the correct gear Lexus NX 200t is a real pleasure to pilot. During normal driving the Lexus is likely to be at maximum torque due to the lovely spread from 1650 to 4000. This makes for relaxed driving and minimum emissions and fuel use. Fuel use during our testing was in the six to seven litres per 100 kilometres range on motorways and easy country running, rising to a more than acceptable eight to 10 litres per 100 around town. This compares well with the 7.7 L/100km official numbers. Lexus has sold the RX midsize SUV and the very large LX 4WD for many years in Australia and both have proven popular. The all-new NX is already showing every sign of outselling them both. Which comes as no surprise as this market segment is red hot at the moment.
