■ Ex-boyfriend takes vile revenge...
1170560-ACM06-15
AN ENDEAVOUR Hills man who humiliated his ex-partner by posting ‘revenge pornography’ of her on at least 30 websites has been ordered to perform community work. Rodney Glenn Hotchin, 37, pleaded guilty to one count of stalking in Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday 29 June after telling police that he had felt “wronged” when the victim ended their two-year relationship in 2013. Police prosecutor Senior Constable Liz Millear told the court that the ex-partner had asked Hotchin to delete consensually filmed, explicit sex scenes and images of her after the break-up. Hotchin agreed but kept the material stored on a home hard drive and mobile phone. In December 2014, a friend told the victim there had been explicit images of her on more than 40 adult websites since June 2013. They were titled by a multitude of vile, degrading phrases. Sen Const Millear said that
upon seeing the published images, the victim felt “harassed, violated, bullied and fearful in public”. “Professionally, she has felt great shame and embarrassment.” Some websites complied with the victim’s requests to take down the material but the images were re-posted by Hotchin. He told police that he posted the images on about 30 websites out of a “revenge” fuelled by bitterness and anger. Hotchin was aware that he did wrong and that he’d placed the victim in fear and apprehension, Sen Const Millear said. Defence lawyer David Dribbin said Hotchin was a single man and technician with no prior record, who had drunk heavily and “ruminated” after the break-up. According to a psychologist’s report, Hotchin suffered a persistent depressive disorder, was “chronically” lonely and emotionally neglected as a child. As a result, he had an “egocentric interpretation of social events” and was unable
to consider the emotional needs of others, Mr Dribbin told the court. “What’s significant for the issue of sentencing is... Mr Hotchin hasn’t sought or obtained any treatment and counselling for some fairly significant difficulties in his upbringing, which manifested in his behaviour before the court.” The psychologist rated Hotchin as a low risk of reoffending. “I have very little doubt that Mr Hotchin has learnt a very valuable lesson,” Mr Dribbin said. “At the expense of his girlfriend,” magistrate Doug Bolster retorted. Mr Bolster told Hotchin: “I’m prepared to give you the benefit of the doubt in my mind. “Many will argue it should be jail.” Hotchin was placed on a 12-month community corrections order under “supervision of the secretary”, compelling him to 300 hours of voluntary work. Mr Bolger ordered the offending images to be destroyed and for Hotchin to provide a forensic sample.

Rainbow of anger By GEORGIA WESTGARTH IT’S Casey councillor Rosalie Crestani’s latest war of words over homosexuality... sparked by the gay pride rainbow filter used on Facebook. Despite being labelled a bigot on social media, Cr Crestani stands by her views against same-sex marriage and her belief that people are not born homosexual. In the wake of the US Supreme Court’s ruling to legalise same-sex marriage throughout America, Facebook decided to take its own stance. Users were given the opportunity to support the change by putting a rainbow-coloured filter over their Facebook profile picture. Cr Crestani took to Facebook on Sunday 28 June, posting: “The rainbow has been hijacked. Some of my FB friends don’t understand truly why they colour their photo. Have you researched? Or does it end at ABC news? Please read Bill Muehlenberg’s books one of which is ’Dangerous Liasons’ before you engage the rainbow. You will lose your naivety.” The post got two shares and 54 likes but has left many Casey residents shocked and disgusted. Mary Kylstra said on Facebook: Maybe not, but I like what it stands for... equality for all. I started listening to the interview but just got very, very angry so will just leave you to
Facebook co-founder Mark Zuckerberg’s Facebook rainbow picture.
Four Oaks Ward councillors Rosalie Crestani and Rafal Kaplon.
your bigoted ideas... Another, Katie Sheargold, said: “This bigot is a councillor and wants to run our town?” while Rachael Ruse said: “Know who I won’t be voting for!” Adam Todd added: “Wow, so many people angry about love and equality on her post!” Cr Crestani compared the rainbow to Christmas and said she didn’t want to see the rainbow lose its true meaning. “I don’t want it to always be identified with homosexuality, I think that the rainbow should be remembered for what it originally stood for which is a promise from God. “I also believe the rainbow means a second chance and a fresh start for all,” she said.
Having experienced pain in her own past, Cr Crestani said it has given her the strength to always speak out. “I’m not afraid to speak up and I know I get a lot of backlash and people call me a lot of names but I am speaking from a place of love and there’s no judgement in me. “Because I’ve had abuse in my own childhood I understand about sexual brokenness, I have deep compassion and love for everyone because of my own sister - and I have friends that have come out. “It’s not about not loving people, I love them dearly,” she said. Cr Crestani bases much of her own views on Bill Muehlenberg, who supported her on Facebook,
and his writings and her own personal experiences. She believes homosexuality comes from deep wounding at a young age. “What breaks my heart the most is that homosexual men die eight to 20 years younger than their heterosexual counterparts and there’s something seriously inherently wrong - these are precious people dying younger,” she said. Of the Christian faith, Cr Crestani believes making same-sex marriage legal is an attempt to undermine Christianity. “I think more heterosexuals than homosexuals are involved in trying to take down Christianity, to make it illegal,” she said. Fellow Four Oaks Ward councillor Rafal Kaplon came out as gay in November 2014 and said Cr Crestani had expressed her ideas to him but they had maintained a “very deep and respectful friendship and working relationship built on trust”. “We debate and discuss our views on the topic sometimes in private conversations - from my personal experience you are born gay and do not have a choice of sexuality,” he said. Cr Kaplon believes legalising gay marriage will strengthen society and the institution of marriage. He said even though he disagrees with his colleague “there is no reason to stop working together or continue being friends”.
Doors open to new abuse-free home By CASEY NEILL FAMILY violence victims can find support at Dandenong and District Benevolent Society. Opportunity shop manager Margaret Ladner is offering help to anyone fleeing a physically, emotionally or economically abusive home life. “I would like the people of Dandenong to know that there is a door here,” she said. “I would love them to come in and we’ll give them any help they need. “I’ve been known to take them home.” Ms Ladner and her team distributes clothes and food, and refer victims to organisations which specialise in accommodation and other support. “We’d have two or three a week coming in,” she said. “I try to keep in touch with them, especially if they have kids. “We had a girl in here and she had a six-month-old baby, no food, nowhere to go.... “They feel forgotten, they feel

Society president Wilma Southern was pleased to see family violence being put in the spotlight. “People are taking more notice of it, I do think that,” she said. She used to work at welfare service Cornerstone Contact Centre in Dandenong with Mandy Ahmadi, also known as Zahara Rahimzadegan. In June last year her husband Nasir Ahmadi was jailed for 11 years after pleading guilty to strangling her and burying her in their Ashwood backyard in December 2011. “She started a hair dressing salon. She taught people how to do the hairdressing and did it all for nothing,” Ms Southern said. “Her husband used to do oddjobs around Cornerstone. “He thought she was flirting with someone in Cornerstone and he killed her. “I knew her well. She was a lovely lady who did all she could to help others. She had two sons.” Dandenong and District Benevolent Society is at 305 Thomas Street, Dandenong, and can be contacted on 9793 3736.
Police hunt for pair over stolen car raids THE same stolen car was this week used in a petrol drive-off from a Hallam 7-Eleven and then a liquor store robbery.

Sticky date’s raw hunger for naked foods By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS THERE’S nothing like promises of ‘free and naked’ to grab the attention. Noble Park-based Kez’s Kitchen has unleashed two liberatingly labelled health bars choc mud and sticky date. The Free and Naked bars meet lofty, guiltfree standards - a four-star health rating, coldpressed, and nude of added sugar, gluten, wheat, GMO ingredients, sulfite, artificial colours, flavours and preservatives. This vegan purity seems to be a lucrative product line, making its way onto major supermarket shelves across Australia. Managing director Michael Carp said his company struck a winner, doubling its output when it started making gluten-free foods such as cereals in 2007. It tapped into a hunger for healthy foods that “God meant us to eat”, he said.
EAT LOCAL, DINE GLOBAL “It led to tremendous growth. “The market is inundated with food and products, but not with innovation. “It’s obviously a tough environment dealing with major retailers but they’re happy to support companies like us that show innovation and are flexible.” Mr Carp said his company couldn’t just copy others to keep itself ahead. It does extensive research with domestic consumers and emerging overseas trends to find its points of difference. “When you’re a small
company, you can be attuned to new trends and move quickly.” The kitchen, which turns around more than $10 million a year and employs 65 workers, started humbly in the late 1980s. Back then, Mr Carp’s sister Keren and mother Helen were cooking in a domestic kitchen, supplying cafes with choc-chip cookies and cakes. It soon took off to a commercial kitchen, then a larger bakery in Abbotsford. Mr Carp walked away from his job as a lawyer to hop on board in 1994. In 1999 the kitchen moved to its present purpose-built bakery at Princes Highway, Noble Park. “I saw their passion and enthusiasm,” Mr Carp said. “I just saw it as an incredible opportunity to work with my family.”

100 years ago 8 July 1915 Men are Urgently Needed Last night in a cafe a foreigner - a neutral - said to me: “You will not get many more Australians to go the war unless you have conscription.” Because he was a foreigner and might have misinterpreted as boasting the indignant denial that rose to my lips I let the remark pass. But among ourselves we cannot afford to ignore what our foreign fellow citizens think of our valour and patriotism. We will not send a sufficiency of reinforcements to the fighting line in Gallipoli unless by national compulsion! Are we behaving so that the impartial observer can think this of us?

Baseball bat smash spree By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A FORMER junior football protege has been convicted for criminal damage and assault after wielding a baseball bat at his ex-girlfriend’s house. Jean Roussell, 24, of Endeavour Hills initially sought a sentence indication at a court hearing on Monday 29 June after denying he’d struck her expartner’s new housemate several times to the head and upper arm using the bat. Roussell, who had previously lived at the victim’s Heatherton home, was surprised and upset to find the housemate inside and slapped him with an open hand to the face several times, police prosecutor Senior Constable Liz Millear told the court.

journalnews.starcommunity.com.au
As the victim called police, Roussell produced the bat from his car and stuck the victim, Sen Const Millear said. The accused then smashed a hole into the lounge room wall, damaged items and stashed several household goods that didn’t belong to him in his car. Defence lawyer David Dribbin said Roussell, who had no prior record, had got in an argument after finding the housemate smoking a crack pipe at the time. He said all items removed from the house were immediately recovered when police arrived. Mr Dribbin told the court that Roussell had played soccer for Australia as a junior and was playing at Belgian club
level until he damaged a nerve in his back during a game five years ago. Roussell was devastated by the sudden end of his “extremely promising” footballing career but had successfully rebuilt his life, Mr Dribbin said. He asked for a non-conviction given Roussell’s age and future travel plans. Magistrate Doug Bolster disagreed, citing aggravating factors such as $2470 of household damage and another $2000 of stolen goods. “He has gone out of his way to get a baseball bat and assault the victim. In my view that requires a conviction.” Roussell was convicted and fined $1500 and ordered to pay restitution for the damage.

$1million family is a quick pick winner
Born to be a nurse
ONE lucky family is now $1 million richer after purchasing a quick pick for $8.55 at the Hallam Square News and Lotto. The winners purchased an unregistered 12 game quick pick for the $22 million Superdraw on Saturday 20 June. Manager at the store Gabriel Carr said the winner was a regular customer who buys TattsLotto every week. “They usually buy on their own numbers and on their registered card,” he said, but the millionaires mixed up their routine and it sure did paid off. Mr Carr said the first game on the quick pick was the winning game. “It’s an amazing experience especially when you see the customer and you get to tell them the good news,” he said. Mr Carr said this was the store's fifth winner.

OBITUARY PATSY LYONS 1925-2015 PATSY Lyons, who was matron at Dandenong Hospital for 10 years, devoted her life to caring for others. Patsy was born in Dublin, Ireland, on 9 December 1925, the only daughter of Elizabeth and Patrick Lyons. When she was about 18, Patsy followed in her mother’s footsteps and left Dublin for England where she trained to be a nurse - the beginning of a 40 year career. When she completed her general training, Patsy returned to Dublin and undertook maternity training. Delivering the eulogy at Patsy’s funeral, her brother Bernard recalled a neighbour in Dublin who called her new daughter ‘Patsy’ because of the wonderful help offered by Patsy during the birth. Bernard emigrated to Australia and in 1952 persuaded his sister to join him. Patsy nursed at the Heidelberg Repatriation Hospital, the Warracknabeal and Myrtleford hospitals, before returning to Ireland in 1954.
The late Patsy Lyons. In the late 1960s, she again moved to Australia, this time with her mother and two other brothers. She was immediately employed as a charge sister at Dandenong Hospital. Patsy subsequently became deputy matron and then director of nursing. During her tenure she saw the hospital grow from around 90 patients to 350.
“She loved the hospital and its staff,” Bernard said. “She always emphasised that she was a nurse and that the patient was of paramount importance. “She used to tell the nurses that they should always remember that without the patients, they would not be needed. “She loved her staff and made sure that she maintained a very close rapport with them, a bond, which lasted in many cases, for the rest of her life.” In her retirement, Patsy was awarded a life membership of Rotary for her work at the hospital. Patsy loved her religion and the church. She loved Noble Park and particularly St Anthony’s Catholic Church. Patsy lived the last years of her life at a nursing home in Mount Waverley. In her final days individual members of staff would come into her room frequently crying and expressing their love for her. Pasty died on 8 June. She was farewelled by a large congregation of family, friends and former colleagues and patients at St Anthony’s.
Friends enjoy a double celebration HALLAM’S Friends of Red Cross celebrated two very special occasions on Monday 15 June. Dorothy Browne was recognised as its longest serving member and had the honour of cutting the 36th birthday cake. Betty Keen has been a part of the Hallam Red Cross for 25 years and said Dorothy was very special. “Dorothy is from Keys-
borough and has come up to Hallam for 30 years, so she’s very special. I think she’s been on the committee several times over the years as well,” she said. The Friends of Red Cross celebrated its birthday with a talk from guest speaker Eunice Welch from the Red Cross stamp collection department. “It was a very interesting speech, she showed us how
they package, auction and price the stamps. “Eunice left with about four bags full of stamps there would have been thousands of stamps in there,” Betty explained. “The Red Cross made $11,000 last year just through the sale of used stamps that would otherwise been thrown away,” she said. Betty said members were
very proud the club was still be going strong. “Many small units have had to shut down local units because they can’t get new members but we’ve been very lucky to get new members they bring in new ideas,” Betty said. The Friends of Red Cross holds raffles, barbecues and fundraisers throughout the year and utilise their crafty skills as well.
“Our ladies are very handy with craft and cooking and we hold a stall at the Doveton shopping strip to raise money. “Were a good little group, we’re not a one man band and we all do something to contribute to the group we often go out to lunch together and that’s part of it, too, to socialise with friends, neighbours and locals,” Betty said.

Business mum to speak up
Cash set to crack ice By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A NARRE Warren community centre is one of several facilities in Melbourne’s south east which will benefit from more than $2 million in State Government funding to tackle the spread of ice. Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan confirmed on Friday 26 June that UnitingCare ReGen would receive $532,855 per year for four years to run the new rehabilitation programs as part of the Andrews government’s $45.5 million Ice Action Plan. This will allow the drug treatment organisation to run additional programs for residents in Casey, Cardinia and Greater
Dandenong as well as other neighbouring areas. Programs will also be run at Connections UnitingCare in Webb Street, Narre Warren. The programs - which will include cognitive behavioural therapy, help with managing high-risk situations, and family relationship support - will be funded as part of a $24.6 million package to expand treatment services, support families and strengthen communities across Victoria. The Casey and Cardinia regions will also benefit from $200,000 given to health service Eastern Access Community Health (EACH) to expand drug support as well as $1.48 million over four years to
fund a state-wide family drug education program. EACH is a registered community health service based in Melbourne’s east. “Different people need different kinds of drug treatment,” Mr Donnellan said. “What is important is to engage the local community of Narre Warren and surrounds so that, together, we can come up with local solutions for local problems with the assistance of the Victorian Government.” Earlier this year, a forum was convened at the Casey council offices where representatives from sporting clubs throughout the municipality gathered to workshop an
official drug policy for their respective clubs. National Policy Manager for the Australian Drug Foundation Geoff Munro was a guest speaker at the event and urged people to create a policy as a way of prevention. He said sporting clubs provided a protective environment with local coaches often acting as a mentor to those they were in charge of. Last week, the Journal News incorrectly reported the funding for Narre Warren was $1 million over four years. The information was taken from an error in the government’s original press release. The larger figure is correct.
A SUCCESSFUL businesswoman and mother of nine will be the guest speaker at a Casey Cardinia Region lunch in Cranbourne next month. Doctor Judith Slocombe’s career has spanned many roles, from veterinarian to entrepreneur, business owner, corporate senior executive manager and non-executive director. She was appointed Alannah and Madeline Foundation CEO in 2005. The children’s charity strives to keep children safe from violence, with a major focus on cyber safety and reducing bullying. Dr Slocombe’s accolades include Telstra Australian Business Woman of the Year and in 2003 a centenary medal for service to Australian society in business leadership. The Empowering Women business lunch will also be an opportunity for guests to network with like-minded businesspeople and enjoy a two-course lunch and glass of bubbly. Event registration will be held at 11.30am for a noon to 2pm lunch on Friday 14 August at Cranbourne Racing Centre, Grant Street, Cranbourne. Visit caseycardinia. com.au to register.
Disharmony over square’s ‘bogan’ artworks should have been more interesting - not white and with a better finish. “But it achieves the purpose of not only telling me the name of the square but also promoting it as a place for the whole community,” he said. On the Journal’s Facebook page, Brad Woodford said the sign was striking and impressive and added a nice touch to a spectacular new development. “Finally, Dandenong has some colour and a place to be proud of,” he said. “I am a big fan of it. And, just for the record, I am not a bogan.” Sarah Whelan said the council had more significant issues to address than a sign Cr Brown deemed an abomination. “Are you at all concerned with homelessness, families affected by family violence, crime, children going to school hungry etcetera? Grow up and do the job you were elected to do,” she said. Cr Brown said he’d move a notice of motion at the 13 July council meeting calling for the letters to be removed.
By CASEY NEILL A GREATER Dandenong councillor has slammed the $17,500 price tag for temporary metre-high white letters that spell out Harmony Square in the newly-named Dandenong space. Councillor Peter Brown described the art installation planted in the lawn on Tuesday as “ugly as sin” and “the work of bogans”. He said it was also a waste of money because it would be dismantled after six to eight weeks and he plans to call for a council vote to have the letters removed. But Mayor Sean O’Reilly said the letters were reusable and had received a positive public response. “If it was a one-off for a few weeks you’d say that price was quite high,” he said. “They’ll be used for special occasions. For the number of uses that we intend to get out of the letters, I don’t think that price is too high at all. “I think it’s an effective way of intro-

There’s hundreds of likes on the photos. “From what I can gather, there’s only one person that doesn’t like it.” Cr Brown said there was no consultation with councillors prior to the “abomination of what is a beautiful public space” appearing.
But Cr O’Reilly said approving the signage was part of the process to choose the civic square name. “Councillors were briefed that the successful name would be presented in large letters in the civic square,” he said. “I can’t recall if Cr Brown was present at that particular briefing or not.” Cr Matthew Kirwan said the sign

COUNCILLOR Peter Brown’s safety concerns about the new Noble Park Skate Park have earned him a nickname in skating circles. Grumpy Old Guy appears on a number of memes posted online making light of his calls for investigations into bowl heights at the Ross Reserve facility. The Journal couldn’t help but chuckle at the, ahem, high-quality editing work and witty text. A DANDENONG police officer got a welcome surprise last week. When coming out to the front desk to meet with reporters for their weekly media briefing, the officer was struck by the fact that no one else was in the Dandenong Police Station foyer waiting to see the cops. He was heard remarking that in all of his years of policing “I’ve never seen this place empty“.

Springvale Uniting Church. The Australian first facility has been ticking along nicely since opening its doors in February. It’s receiving support from throughout the community, including about $40,000 a year from the Springvale RSL. “We are most fortunate to have forged such a positive relationship with the Springvale RSL,” Cr Roz Blades said. THE Journal was thrilled to see Dandenong’s delicious cuisine highlighted in the Herald Sun last week. The 30 June Taste lift-out centre spread featured 10 foodie favourites - from burgers to bread, kebabs, sausages and more. They’ve all made previous appearances in the Journal for their success and it was great to see them receive recognition among a larger audience.

Nida enjoys thirst for life By CASEY NEILL DANDENONG businesswoman Nida Iqbal has constantly sought more from life and wants other refugees to have the chance to do the same. Her father was executed without knowing his daughter existed. Her mother wasn’t even aware of the life they had created when she lost the man she loved - targeted because he supported education and was born a Hazara. “Hazara killings have always been very common in Afghanistan,” Nida said. “They want ethnic cleansing and in ethnic cleansing Hazaras always come first because they’re the minority.” Nida’s mother – a Pashtun, married her late husband’s younger brother, breaking social expectations for a second time. “In 1989 we fled Afghanistan because we just couldn’t be there anymore and the war was getting pretty bad,” Nida said. “My stepdad fled first, to Pakistan, and then after that we came.” “We” included Nida, her dad’s sister, her mum, and her 40-day-old sister. “We fled in the back of trucks full of bombs and hand grenades,” the Cranbourne resdient said. “I was eight years old.” They had to start their lives from zero, with a new language and culture. “My mum and dad were both teachers in Pakistan in local schools, schools for Afghan refugees in Quetta,” Nida said. “We knew that we would never be able to go back to Afghanistan. “I have never been back. “When you’re very traumatised like my family is, it’s not home anymore.
Nida and her husband Shahid work side by side. 138933 “Apart from a very big fear you don’t have any other attachment.” Nida and her family lived in Pakistan until 1998. “Our life was pretty normal. It had ups and downs of poverty and living below the line, but it was OK. “When the Taliban came into power in Afghanistan they, basically, stopped education and work for girls and women in Afghanistan. “Being from a family that really valued education, it really affected me.” She made a presentation on the issue at her school. “It was published in the media and then I was threatened to be killed with my family,” she said. “I was just 18.
“We left everything behind and went to Islamabad, which is the capital city of Pakistan.” They told the United Nations their story. The organisation moved them from hotel to hotel and lodged applications for refuge with Canada and Australia. “Of course we had heard of Canada but never Australia,” Nida said. “We landed in Melbourne on 26 November 1998. “I remember one of the first things I said to mum was ‘what if there was a war there? Where would we go? We can’t even swim’. “I was so used to fleeing from one border to another border, never having consistency in life.” Nida was 19 but enrolled in Year 10
at South Oakleigh Secondary College. “I finished Year 12 with a 71 ENTER score which wasn’t a lot, but considering I’d only been in school for three years it was pretty good.” Nida started a Bachelor of International Trade at university in 2002 and met her husband, accountant Shahid. “I suck at economics and maths and I failed maths in Year 12,” she said. “I was in our economics class and we had a test the following day. He always sat at the front of the class.” So Nida and a friend asked him for help at lunchtime. “He helped us and the following morning I sat next to him and I copied everything in his test,” she said. “I got better marks than him in that test!”
She started a diploma in community development after completing her degree in 2005 and has been involved in the sector since. “Then I was very interested in assisting families because I could see they were being charged a lot of money to be reunited with their families,” she said. “In 2009 I decided to do my graduate certificate in migration law and practice to be able to help them. In 2010 I got my licence as a migration agent.” Nida gave birth to her daughter, Arooj, in 2011 and just two years later started a law degree with a desire to be able to better represent her clients at her Dandenong agency. “It makes me so sad that I am so proud of being here and there are so many opportunities that you can grab, yet the current government does not give refugees like myself a chance. “We are not a burden. “We are shattered, we are absolutely broken, but we can do things. “My mum works as a hand-finisher in a bridal gown company. My dad works as a chef in a restaurant. “My sister has just finished university and she’s a beautician, the young one is studying law. “This is a family of five that came to Australia with nothing.” Nida said the immigration system left refugees and asylum seekers hanging, creating depression and anxiety. “In Afghanistan they just get shot or hanged, but in Australia we’re killing them slowly,” she said. “It makes me very angry. “I’m so disappointed that I had this opportunity, my family had this opportunity, yet I am sitting in front of a client who did not have the opportunity. “Sometimes all I can do is cry.”

Happy with snappy PICTURES came to life at Endeavour Hills Library as part of its school holiday program. Children aged four to 10 years old didn’t have to flick through picture story books to see some of their favourite and feared animals. Instead they got an encounter of the cold blooded kind when Reptile Encounters visited the library. Crawling with snakes, crocodiles and lizards, the library was buzzing with about 90 school children yearning for a pat and even a cuddle with the ancient creatures. Jessica Broom from the library said the free event was a massive success. “Questions from the children included ‘is it venomous’, ‘how does it poop’ and ‘where do they come from?’” Ms Broom said. The free school holiday program encourages families to book with more fun activities still to come. – GEORGIA WESTGARTH

MELBOURNE AUCTION SALES HIT ALL-TIME HIGH Victoria’s housing market has broken another record with the highest number of auction sales over any six-month period in Melbourne’s history - in the year to 30 June. Just over 13,000 homes were sold at auction over the past six months, compared to about 12,400 over the same period last year. The big growth in sales was driven by outer Melbourne suburbs which saw a 20 per cent year-on-year increase - to 2263 auction sales this year (compared to 1879 in the first half 2014).

In other results, four eastern Melbourne suburbs recorded the highest year-on-year increase in the number of auctions - Mount Waverley, Wantirna South, Glen Waverley and Bayswater.

Mr Raimondo said the large increase in auction sales in outer Melbourne reflects several factors, including a growing interest from owner occupiers in areas which
many more auctions in this region,” Mr Raimondo said. Other key statistics included: * The 2015 auction capital is Reservoir - for the second successive year; * One suburb, Wantirna South, has seen a 100 per cent increase in auctions this year - from 36 for the first six months last year to 72 this year; * The inner Melbourne suburb with most auctions this year is Richmond - where 230 homes have gone to auction, with 186 selling.

Cops show they’re friendly and frothy IF LAST week was anything to go by, the Coffee with a Cop initiative might be around for a while in Casey. On Thursday police launched the special community program at Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre where residents were encouraged to come and meet their local cops and share a cuppa or two. The Coffee with a Cop program, originally started in the US, aims to create new ways in which police can better interact with community members. Acting Senior Sergeant Jen McKenna is helping co-ordinate the program. “It personalises it, it gives them the opportunity to meet people,” she said. “There’s no agendas, no forums,
it’s whatever the community want to discuss. “I think with policing you go job to job, and a lot of those jobs aren’t always meeting people in good circumstances so police members don’t get an opportunity to meet people in an informal way, it’s generally when people need us. “This gives people the chance to meet us in an informal setting.” Sen Sgt McKenna said the Coffee with a Cop initiative would be run in Casey monthly, with the hope of taking it to other suburbs after the Endeavour Hills trial. For more information, contact Sen Sgt McKenna at Endeavour Hills Police Station on 9709 7666.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
Dip in for Yumi foods By CASEY NEILL YUMI’S is not just a dip brand - it’s a man. Benjamin Friedman founded the business in a Ripponlea fresh fish shop more than 20 years ago. The Hebrew pronunciation of Benjamin is with a Y in place of the J. “The Hungarians call Benjamins Yumi for short,” his brother and Yumi’s CEO Michael Friedman said. “He was in the front of the shop selling kosher fish. There was wholesale at the back. “When the guy at the back of the shop moved out I bought in and became partner.” That was in 1992. Benjamin and Michael’s grandfather bought a Canadian fish business that specialised in mayonnaise-based dips. “We went overseas and we learnt how to make the mayonnaise and mix it with fish and make a dip out of that,” Mr Friedman said. “We built a small smokehouse and started making fish dips. “We sold that in our shop and we sold that in kosher shops in our area and then kosher shops in Sydney, and that’s how it started.” Today Yumi’s employs more than 100 people in Hallam and there are plans to double its size in the next four to five years. The company moved into supermarkets and introduced vegetable dips - still manufacturing in the back of the fish shop. “We couldn’t fit in the shop anymore so we hired a warehouse around the corner just to be able to store things,” Mr Friedman said. Yumi’s built a factory in Cheltenham in 1999 but the company grew so fast that within a year it rented a factory across the road to store raw ingredients. “Then about 2006, 2007 we bought another building across the road from the main factory and we moved the offices and despatched to that site and we turned the whole factory into manufacturing,” he said. “The business grew and grew until we decided
Shaun and Marcus check for quality. 140986 we couldn’t keep working from three places on one street.” The company bought its Wedgewood Road site in 2011. Yumi drove its transformation from an empty shell to custom-built plant in five months. “That would take a normal builder 18 months,” Mr Friedman said. “He’s a pusher, he likes to get things done. That’s his motto. That’s how we’ve grown. “We’re very close to outgrowing the site.” He never thought the business would reach the heights it has. “We’ve always pushed to take it to the next level,” Mr Friedman said. “But did we have this vision? No, probably not this big. “Today we sit around a board room talking about strategy but back then it wasn’t like that, you just got up and did it.
Pictures: GARY SISSONS “We just pushed very hard, got the contracts and did it.” He said the key was “making real dips like you make them at home” instead of flavoured cream cheese. “We saw a niche in the market,” he said. Other salmon dips were made with 80 per cent cream cheese. They used 50 per cent fish. “Nobody else does that,” he said. “There’s no fillers. There’s no breadcrumbs. “I get phone calls from flavouring companies saying ‘I could sell you this flavour or that flavour’. “We don’t use flavours, we use kitchen ingredients. “All the ingredients you’ve got at home in your pantry we use here, we just buy them in bulk.” All products are gluten free, dairy free and kosher. “We don’t use any dairy. In kosher you use
separate kitchens for dairy and separate kitchens for meat. You can’t mix those two,” he said. “If we had dairy you couldn’t use any of my products in a meat kitchen. “And kosher dairy is quite involved. High level you have a supervisor at the farms. “We would love to because one of the biggest dips is tzatziki and French onion and spring onion. “At the moment we don’t even play in that market. If we were going to do that we would have to open another factory across the road. “We’ve thought about it a lot but we haven’t done it.” The next growth area for Yumi’s is not in dips. “We’re doing the vegetarian bites and were looking to expand in other areas in chilled foods,” Mr Friedman said. “It’s growing and we’ve got a lot of new product development.” The business was growing so fast in 2013 that the Friedmans decided it was too big to remain a family business. “We sold off a lot of it to a private equity fund. We’re now owned partly by the Freidman family still - which is me and my brother - and partly by this equity fund, like a partnership,” he said. “But they’re not involved. They’re in Sydney and we see them once a month for a board meeting.” The fund injected money and set up structures that were previously absent from the business, like an operations manager and a chief financial officer. “We work well together,” he said. But the Friedmans still own and run Ripponlea Fish Shop. “My mum sits at the cash register and I’ve got four or five staff,” Mr Friedman said. “I drop in every morning. “The shop sells mainly fresh fish. They do a lot of fried fish and they sell all the products that are made here.”
Looking through to the future Unwanted mail on post office jobs
By CASEY NEILL DANDENONG’S Viridian Glass and BOC have signed up to extend their relationship to half a century. In recent weeks the glass manufacturer and gas and engineering company agreed to a new 10-year supply contract that will secure Viridian’s ongoing compressed air, hydrogen and nitrogen gas needs. Viridian Glass, a division of CSR Building Products, is the only float glass manufacturing facility in Australia. It makes glass sheets by floating molten glass on a bed of molten metal, creating a uniform thickness and flat surface. BOC’s nitrogen generator plant in Dandenong is connected to Viridian’s site through a pipeline that under the new agreement has received a 20 per cent capacity upgrade. BOC tonnage account manager Hugh Jones said this was to support Viridian’s growing production needs and keep it competitive in the global glass manufacturing market. “BOC and Viridian have worked together in Dandenong for more than 40 years, serving the production demands of the float glass industry in Australia since 1974,” he said. “This new agreement strengthens our partnership and shows the confidence that both our companies have in the local manufacture of float glass, which relies heavily on the reliable supply of nitrogen gas.” Viridian supply chain general manager Warren Seal said securing long-term supply agreements for its hydrogen and nitrogen gas requirements was critical for Viridian to meet growing demand from the construction market. “Securing long-term supply arrange-

This frame of jumbo sheet glass weighs 25 tonnes. 141136 Picture: ROB CAREW ments is a key step to improve the efficiency and productivity of our Dandenong facility,” he said. “This is a world-class site providing enhanced customer service through
specialised architectural glass products, shorter lead times relative to imports, and extensive product warranties which it can support as the only float glass manufacturer in the region.”
JOBS at the Dandenong South letter sorting centre hang in the balance, with Australia Post forecasting a $500 million loss. But the situation is not as dire as Australia Post managing director and group CEO Ahmed Fahour is making out, according to the Communication Workers Union. Mr Fahour said a significant and ongoing decline in physical mail meant there was less work in the mail service. “We forecast in the next three years there will be a gradual reduction in jobs across the mail network because of this dramatic shift in consumer behaviour,” he said. “I have made a commitment that there will be no forced redundancy of staff impacted directly by changes in our mail service and who are actively seeking jobs in other parts of the business.” But Communication Workers Union Victorian secretary Joan Doyle said Mr Fahour made the announcement to try to push changes through parliament. “He wants to put up the prices of stamps and to reduce the service,” she said. “This is his way of lobbying by media release. “He’s trying to create a crisis. “There’s actually no new announcement about cuts or anything new that’s happening. “That’s not to say that there won’t be some job losses.”
Ms Doyle said the union had agreed to 25 voluntary redundancies this year, and Australia Post had recently bought new letters sorting equipment. “That will probably mean a few more jobs go, but nothing like he’s trying to say,” she said. “We think one job would do. “We want Ahmed Fahour to go. “He doesn’t understand postal administration and he just wants to make a big profit.” Ms Doyle said Postal Act regulations required Australia Post to provide mail the next day in metropolitan areas. She said Mr Fahour wanted to make next-day delivery a new service and charge $1.50 for a priority stamp. “This is his way of saying ‘Australia Post are going broke, I really need this, let me have my way’,” she said. “Since Mr Fahour has been in charge, Australia Post have increased their revenue by $1.5 billion a year. “Money that they make from the parcels and from identity services and retail stores outweighs any loss they make in letters. “The parcels in Victoria have increased by 20 per cent “The same retail shops are involved in both letters and parcels, the same trucks, the same drivers, processing centres. “To have this artificial divide between small addressed letters is really silly.”

Artist Calvin Bell and Holt MP Anthony Byrne are calling on members of the local community to attend this weekend’s Holt Anzac Centenary Fine Art Exhibition.
War’s fine art By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A WELL-RESPECTED group of Casey artists will this weekend launch its special Anzac centenary exhibition. Provenance Artists, a notfor-profit group of local artists, was awarded a $22,605 federal grant in February to help put together the Holt Anzac Centenary Fine Art Exhibition on 4 and 5 July. Holt MP Anthony Byrne this week thanked the group and member Calvin Bell for organising the event and called on the community to check out the exhibition, funded under the Australian Government’s Anzac Centenary Local Grants Program. “I congratulate Mr Calvin Bell and the members from
Provenance Artists Inc for organising the paintings for this wonderful event, which will showcase the finest Anzac art from 30 local leading artists,” Mr Byrne said. Of the 30 featured artists, five will be student artists, five will be hobby artists, 10 will be emerging artists and 10 will be established Provenance artists. Earlier this year, Mr Bell called on residents from the Holt electorate to lend any artefacts to the group that they may have of WWI, to be used as inspiration for paintings or even displayed at the exhibition. Mr Byrne helped push for the grant, with two others also approved for local organisations, including $3420 for the
Cranbourne Combined Patchworkers, and $814 for the Saffron Grove Retirement Village in Hallam. As part of the exhibition, all the paintings on display will be donated back to the community after the show. Any school, sporting group, community group or other organisation in Holt interested in displaying one of the Anzac paintings in their facility should contact Mr Byrne’s office on 9796 7533. The Holt Anzac Centenary Fine Art Show will be held on 4-5 July at the Mechanics Institute Hall, 59 Webb Street, Narre Warren, from 10am-5pm. Adults $5, Students $2 and veterans free.

SPORT
He’s a revelation By JARROD POTTER A METEORIC football ascension continued this week as Gach Nyuon earned a pair of stellar accolades. Nyuon, 18, from Springvale, just recorded the best week of his short football career with his Vic Country side claiming the AFL Under-18 National Championship with a perfect six-from-six winning record. In the carnival’s final match on Thursday against Western Australia, the 200cm high-flying Dandenong Stingrays’ ruck-man starred, generating 29 hit outs to give first use to his midfield team mates. The hard graft of knocking over South Australia, Western Australia and heated rivals Vic Metro, led to a dead-rubber on Thursday, but Western Australia toiled to stay in it. But their resolve was quashed by Vic Country in a 32-point win and Nyuon could hardly believe it, especially once his hardearned national championship’s medallion was wrapped around his neck. “It means the world to be honest at the moment,” Nyuon said. “It’s a great feeling, I’ve lost my voice from the excitement and it’s awesome, especially winning at 18s and 16s.” Nyuon pegged the team’s success
to its tight knit work rate - especially under new coach Paul Henriksen who had the side at the under-16 level. “Six-and-zero, so we just played team footy… go out and do whatever the coach tells us to go out and do,” Nyuon said. “Probably just the boys - last year I was trying to fit in, but these boys I’ve known since under-16s and it makes it pretty much a lot easier.” Coach Henriksen believes Nyuon’s rise through the ranks is remarkable considering he’s still fairly new to the game - Nyuon only picked up the Australian code in 2012. “He’s a revelation,” Henriksen said. “Had him at 16s as well… he was a bit green back then with his footy, so to speak, but his efforts throughout the last couple of games have been outstanding and he’s growing and developing very quickly.” Continuing the stellar news, it was announced on Saturday morning that Nyuon along with team mates Jacob Weitering and Keiran Collins were also selected in the Under-18 All Australian team. Picked for the key spots in the All Australian line-up; Nyuon (ruck), Weitering (centre-half-back) and Collins (full back) - the trio have set not a foot
wrong in their bids to join the AFL. Three seasons in and Nyuon has ticked off every task asked of him along the way - Vic Country under-16 national champion, AFL Academy representative, Dandenong Stingrays’ player and now Vic Country under-18 national champion and All Australian. There remains one last challenge for him this season - getting back to TAC Cup and hopefully pushing his beloved Dandenong Stingrays, currently sitting third in the competition, towards finals and beyond. Nyuon wanted to thank everyone throughout Vic Country, Stingrays and especially his family for getting right behind his football dream. “Just wanted to thank the coaches, docs and everyone who looks after us behind the scenes and especially my family,” Nyuon said. “They’ve been to every game I’ve played in Victoria so far so they’ve been pretty good for me.” For more on Vic Country’s national championships’ win, turn to page 51 of the Dandenong Journal.

Andrew Bogut signs autographs for fans at Foot Locker’s Melbourne CBD store. 141239 Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT
By RUSSELL BENNETT ANDREW Bogut is far from the stereotypical NBA star. Bogut has never been afraid to speak his mind, but he’s never sought the limelight, and he’s certainly never been part of the party scene or a regular on TMZ. Soon after the Endeavour Hills product, now 30, won the 2014-15 NBA title with the Golden State Warriors he treated himself, but it wasn’t with diamonds or jewels - his championship ring has enough of those. Instead he bought himself an Aussie muscle car - a Ford XW GT Phase II. He’s long been a petrol head having partnered with his father in ABC Customs and Imports, a rarecar restoration business in Dandenong South. In fact, he credits Dandenong and its surrounds for instilling a sense
of toughness in him that has helped shape him into the player, and person, he is. “Growing up around Dandy you’ve got to be street-smart and have a toughness about you just walking home from school,” Bogut said at Foot Locker’s Swanston Street store in a meet-and-greet with fans on Thursday. “It’s a working class suburb and if you’re soft and scared people will take advantage of you so I grew up being the tougher guy. “At times it was perceived the wrong way but that’s kind of what the area forced me to do. “I think it definitely shaped me into who I am today.” Bogut, a former first overall NBA draft pick, didn’t play a minute of the Warriors’ decisive Game’s victories (Games 5 and 6) over LeBron James
and his Cleveland Cavaliers. He admitted that at the start of the season, under new head coach Steve Kerr, the concept of team sacrifice was a bit of a culture shock. “My first DNP-CD (Did Not Play - Coach’s Decision) was Game-5 of an NBA Finals,” he said. “We all sacrificed… we had a bunch of guys who’d been All-Stars - I’d been All-NBA one year and All-Defensive Team, David Lee was a two-time All-Star, (Finals MVP) Iguodala had been an All-Star - we’ve all accomplished those individual accolades and realised they don’t really get you that far. “People don’t remember all those individual accolades. “When you win a Championship ring, whether you’re the first guy or the 15th guy on the roster, you’re remembered in history forever.”
THE accolades just continue to pour in for Narre Warren’s own ace of the junior international tennis scene, Destanee Aiava. Earlier this week at the Victorian Tennis Awards she continued her winning streak to claim the Female Junior Athlete of the Year award for the third time running. Destanee - who splits her time between Noble Park Tennis Club and Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club - was named Female Junior Athlete of the Year at Australian Tennis’ night of nights, the Newcombe Medal, last year. Following an extended training block in 2013, she started the last calendar year off with a bang - reaching the third round of the Australian Junior Open at Melbourne Park in her first attempt at her home Grand Slam event. Still just 15-years-old, she followed that up with another third-round appearance this year. Destanee is coached by Andrea Stoltenberg - the wife of former Australian world number-19 Jason, and herself a former WTA player. She may seem shy and unassuming
away from the court, but Destanee lets her power-packed game do all the talking on it. While her incredible physical fitness is a major asset, she describes her mental strength as the biggest key. “That side is just as strong as the physical for me,” she told the News in an extended interview last year. And mum Rosie agrees. “They both go hand-in-hand - her coach changed her game to just improve the base of it and work on a few technical things like getting her timing right,” she added. The youngster is already known for her tireless work ethic and drive to succeed. When the News first spoke with Aiava way back in 2012, she explained that she pinned a list of goals on the fridge and ticked them off one-by-one as she accomplished them. On that list with a bullet - “Become world number one”. Destanee gave one simple reason as to why she’s able to go toe-to-toe on court with players far longer into their tennis journeys than she is. “My game is more aggressive,” she said

Noble cause for Bulls By JARROD POTTER EFL DIVISION 1 - Round 12 PLAYING for more than just the four points, Noble Park and South Croydon battled it out on Saturday for a noble cause. The clubs have played their fair share of tense encounters throughout their respective EFL journeys, but when faced with adversity, the sides found a way to link up in support. A week of football calamity at every level left the match - and its 136-point margin - pushed to the side entirely, isolated from the real goal of the day at South Croydon’s Cheong Reserve. Generosity towards the Bulls’ family has never been forgotten and this week, it was Noble Park’s turn to step up and return the favour to help a friend. The Noble Park football community embrace an effort to support South Croydon trainer Monique Kouvaras - who was seriously injured in a car accident earlier this year - helping raise $1000 towards her recovery. This comes after South Croydon rallied behind Craig Anderson and his son Zayn last season for the ‘Shave a Bull Day’ with Bulldogs staying until the late hours of a fairly similar winter Saturday. While off the field there was great generosity, the Bulls were a bit more miserly when it came to letting the Doggies get on the scoreboard. An eight-quarter Bulls’ first term left little doubt as to who would run out victorious, but the Bulldogs rallied to negate the Noble Park run through the second to keep the margin at 54 by the main break. But holding back the Bulls has become an arduous task throughout the EFL this season and South Croydon found that out in the second half with Mick Fogarty’s men rattling off 17 goals to take a 25.16 (166) to 4.6 (30) win. The mighty Bulls’ forward trio - Shayne Allan, Ziggie Alwan and Kyle Martin - drilled four goals each among a fleet of Noble Park goal kickers. Noble Park faces Rowville away on Saturday.
VAFA DIVISION 2 - Round 12 GETTING back on the right track, St John’s brushed off Richmond Central in a hard-earned 26-point win. Spraying their way to the finish line, Ben McGee’s charges booted 11.20 (86) to leave the door open for Richmond Central 8.12 (60). Tim Edwards (4 goals) and Glenn Costas (3 goals) led the scoring for the JOCs while Daniel Abou-Karroum and Liam O’Connor also featured in the best. St John’s maintains a stranglehold on second place in VAFA Division 2 with a 10-2 record going into the break.
VAFA DIVISION 4 MASALA had a tough outing in the cold, with Canterbury thumping the Tigers by 164 points. Jordan Toikalkin kicked the only Masala major. VAFA has a bye this weekend while all SFL clubs were given a bye on Saturday and will resume on 11 July.

AFL UNDER-18 NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS - Round 6
A Big V for victory! By JARROD POTTER PUTTING the icing on the cake, Vic Country’s amazing winning streak was extended to six as it wrapped up the AFL Under-18 National Championships title. Finishing the carnival on Thursday afternoon at the Cattery - Simonds Stadium, Geelong - Vic Country notched a 32-point triumph to secure a rare unbeaten record. Western Australia put up a dogged effort - improving dramatically on their last performance against the Big V earlier in the carnival, where a 100-point thrashing was doled out to the Swans. The early possession belonged to Vic Country as Darcy Parish (29
disposals), Jarrod Berry (22) and Joe Maishman (21) had it on a string. But their best efforts weren’t rewarded as the forwards failed to kick truly and ended up clunking 15 behinds in a lacklustre day in front of goals. Despite battling back into the match in the third term - kicking three goals to one - the Swans just didn’t have the tank to go with Vic Country as the home side kept them goalless in the final term to earn the national championship. For starring up forward throughout the carnival booting 18 goals Murray’s mountainous forward Josh Schache was named both the Vic Country MVP and the Larke Medallist for best Division-1 player in the
championships. Gippsland in-and-under forward Ben Ainsworth was exceptional up front for Vic Country - swooping on anything in his area to boot five goals and cap off an exceptional carnival that will have selectors keen to call his name come November’s draft. Dandenong midfielder Kurt Mutimer relished his chance through the midfield, snaring 20 possessions in his best performance for Vic Country while Gach Nyuon had 29 hit-outs and toiled all day against Western Australia’s talls. Vic Country coach Paul Henriksen - who also coached many of these players at the under-16 Vic Country level - said it was fantastic
to take the side back to another national championship. “It’s been a fantastic effort and the players have to take full credit for that,” Henriksen said. “They were always a talented group and I had them at under-16 level and we had success there… to have the opportunity to have them and coach them again this year, thanks to Leon Harris who appointed me, has been everything I’ve asked.”For more on the Vic Country championship success, including interviews with captain Jacob Weitering and cult hero ruckman Gach Nyuon, keep an eye on the Dandenong Journal website www.dandenong.starcommunity.com.au.
TAC CUP - Round 12
Stingrays put wind up Cannons By JARROD POTTER THE Highgate Reserve typhoon tried to play its old tricks on Dandenong, but the elusive Stingrays held on to claim win number eight. The howling breeze flew straight up the field at the wind-friendly, but player, coach, runner and supporter unfriendly Craigieburn oval. It played havoc with Dandenong’s chances as the Stingrays booted onegoal-nine in a horror first term. Cory Machaya was the only player to capitalise on the breeze in the first term, slotting the sole goal compared to the nine other shots squandered by the Stingrays. The home side savoured the wind and flew along the ground to seize the lead and send the Stingrays back to the drawing board at half-time. The one-two forward line punch of Jimmy Freeman (3 goals) and Josh Battle proved a sight to behold as the duo kept the Cannons from blasting away with it. Gut-run and determination was all the coaches could rely on in the freezing, slippery conditions as Robert Turnbull, Sam Pickess and Machaya upped the ante when called on. A 27-point buffer at the final margin, kicking against the wind, was always going to be tough, but
somehow the Stingrays managed to break the seasons-long Highgate hoodoo and hold on. Livewire forward Darcy Warke stole the show as he crumbed a match-defining goal against the zipping zephyr, but the Cannons weren’t done from there. Two more goals flew for the home side in the dying minutes to bring the margin back to seven points, but the Cannons couldn’t finish it off despite a gallant performance. “There was a bit of wind blowing to one end and it was really wet - so it was a hard slog,” Dandenong coach Craig Black said. “We probably didn’t take our opportunities in the first quarter, kicking one goal nine, if we hit the scoreboard a bit more regularly… five goals or something, we might’ve put them under the pump. “Really good third quarter - Josh Battle kicked a goal within thirty seconds - then in the last term we held them off. “Thought we’d need to kick at least one goal into the breeze and Darcy Warke delivered so it was a good result. Black said Jake Lovett got through the match without incident in his TAC Cup return following two months sidelined - while Berwick
A blasting would have been on the cards for Dandenong from coach Craig Black after spraying nine behinds in the first term against Picture: JARROD POTTER Calder. 136883 debutant Ryan Gains got through his first run in the top league without issue. Dandenong stays in touch with the top of the TAC Cup - sitting third by percentage - and face second ranked Murray in a battle of top-ranked Vic Country sides with as an added bonus - their Vic Country stars back in tow for the first round after the Under-18 National Championships. Needless to say, there are tons
of reasons to march down to Shepley Oval on Saturday afternoon and witness the best battle it out from 1.30pm. “There would be a few people waiting for this game - I suspect it should be good,” Black said. “Both teams are full strength and it’s back at our home ground, which we look forward to… and look forward to the boys having a really tough fight… hopefully they’re up for the challenge.”

Power Rangers just slide in By JARROD POTTER SEABL - Round 12
Rachel Antoniadou is one of Dandenong’s up-and-coming guards making the most of an Picture: JARROD POTTER extended SEABL opportunity. 137839
WITH a bigger arsenal than many smaller nations, Dandenong showed it has the firepower upand-down the roster to get the job done against anyone. The Rangers steamrolled Albury-Wodonga 110-61 - launching four quarters above 25 points in an all-round starring effort from an injury and absence ravaged roster. Rangers’ coach Larissa Anderson left the point duties to Bree Whatman (8 points) and Rachel Antoniadou (8 points) and the youthful front court excelled. The tandem brought powerhouses Jacinta Kennedy (33 points), Clare Papavs (30 points) and another youthful star Chloe Bibby (15 points) plenty of possession as the only thing holding back a 100-point win was the mercy of the Dandenong rotation. “It was a great team effort again - it’s a big adjustment for us each week with players in and out and it makes a huge difference to any team not to have your main point guards in,” Anderson said. “I’m super proud of Bree Whatman and Rachel Antoniadou, who are always just ready to slide in - even Amanda Hobba and youngster Navjada George - they all chipped in. “Was great to be able to play everyone and rotate and doing all that from the front defensively.” Andersons’ Rangers will host Launceston in a rematch of last week’s nail biting 69-77 defeat. Dandenong’s men however couldn’t keep the party rolling on Friday evening, downed 90-98 in
Can’t complain about his Toy By MICHAEL FLOYD LADY Toy had Sandown Park buzzing with a sensational win in her heat of the McKenna Memorial on Thursday evening. Switching back to the middle distance journey following her recent staying campaign, the well supported second favourite jumped cleanly to sit third behind early leaders What’s Chewing and Kilkee Flex through the first turn. She swept past Kilkee Flex heading onto the back straight to then take What’s Chewing, and powered home to score by a length in 34.06, the fastest time of the night. “She was impressive,” said trainer Brook Ennis. “She came off what I thought were a couple of terrible runs in Brisbane (where she was third in both finals she contested), and we weren’t overly happy with her trial here on the weekend but she jumped well, landed in a good spot and got a nice clean run through the field.” Lady Toy is yet to break through in seven attempts at group level, but has been placed on six occa-
Lady Toy winds up for a stellar win on Thursday evening at Sandown Park. Picture: SUPPLIED sions including running second in four Group-1 finals. Despite failing to break through at the highest level, Lady Toy has accumulated $287,472 in prize money. “I shouldn’t complain should I?”
said Brooke with a laugh. “She keeps going so well. “To keep running second and third at group level shows she’s a very good greyhounds, but she’s just short of the top liners.
“She needs that nice clear run early because she lacks that bit of early pace, and like most stayers, she goes better when they have something to chase.” And she will have something to chase in the final. Drawing box 3 the same box from which she won her heat - Lady Toy will be under pressure early with Lektra Concord (box 2) and Ballerino (box 4) both running four lengths faster to the post the first time in their respective heats. Other heat winners Mepunga Tiara (which ran fourth in this race in 2014), Spring Leaf and Know Danger are all experienced at group level ensuring an enthralling final. The $58,000 Group-2 McKenna Memorial is named in honour of the first secretary of the Sandown Greyhound Racing Club, Jack McKenna, who was a leading administrator in the sport for 36 years. First run over the staying distance in 1971, the race switched to 595m in 2010 and is now the club’s premier event over the middle distance.
an overtime thriller against SEABL heavyweight Mt Gambier. A monster third term - led by Daequon Montreal (32 points, 10 rebounds) and Andrew Harms (21 points) - pushed the Rangers ahead, but Mt Gambier clawed back to force overtime and storm past to maintain home-court supremacy. Matthew Owies (18 points) had his best outing in the Rangers’ colours so far. Dandenong sits third in the SEABL East and will face North West Tasmania at home on Saturday.
BIG V DIVISION 2 KEYSBOROUGH marched past Collingwood 82-63 to all but clinch third spot - or better - in the race towards the BIG V finals. Highlighting why coach of the month honours went to Cougars’ mainstay Nathan Vogt, Keysborough launched out of the blocks to take a 44-26 lead at the half on the back of some monster plays from Malcolm Heard (34 points, 9 rebounds). Collingwood had nothing in its arsenal to stop Heard while the fun continued for the Cougars via Steven Haddrell (17 points) and Adam Sliwinski (12 points). Keysborough face Mornington on Sunday from 1pm. The Cougars’ women were gallant throughout the first half against Casey, but couldn’t match the Cavaliers down the stretch in a 51-76 loss. Billie Lucas (16 points, 10 rebounds) notched her sixth double-double for the year - and fourth in as many weeks - while Ashleigh Wright (12 points, 5 rebounds) also stood tall in defeat. Keysborough heads to Chelsea this weekend.
Hume-iliation for Thunder By JARROD POTTER NPL TOP LEAGUE hopes are starting to fade for Dandenong Thunder - with seven rounds left to scrape together enough points to stay in the NPL. Battling relegation, Stuart Munro’s men were unable to hold on against FFA Cup-bound Hume City in a 1-3 loss. Yusuf Ahmed continues to be a bright light in an otherwise dull season for Thunder, slotting a dead-ball scramble in the penalty area to peg back the early lead. Sitting second last, Dandenong needs to find a couple of points to leapfrog Werribee City and will start on Tuesday night when it faces Pascoe Vale at home before heading to Port Melbourne on Friday.
NPL 1 EAST WADE Dekker’s solitary goal was enough to brush aside Dandenong City in a 0-1 defeat. Despite the best efforts of Dandy strikers Sean Seavill and Shaun Filipovic, in the battle of Cities, Melbourne City was too mighty. Dandenong City sits sixth and heads to Murray United this weekend. Springvale White Eagles defeated Bendigo City FC 1-0.

The French art of design By DEREK OGDEN IN automotive terms ‘sculpted’ is an overworked word which is often used to give a car arty design cred. However, sometimes there is a line of truth to the application. Take the new Citroen DS3, for example, whose lines bring to mind the curves and concave lines of a Henry Moore reclining figure or the smooth marble surface of a Barbara Hepworth monolith, all classics of abstract 20th century sculpture. The Citroen DS3 DSport compact hatch and cabriolet exteriors exhibit bits of each artists’ unique signatures - clever curves, flowing lines, tactile surfaces - in a way that, together with the latest technology, is aimed at keeping them at the forefront of their class. For more than 90 years, the French automobile maker has been innovating and producing industry firsts. Citroen uses the World Rally Championship as a testing ground and since 2001 has claimed numerous manufacturers’ titles and drivers’ championships with the DS3. From that tradition comes the latest Citroen DS3 DSport, at $33,990 plus on-roads, a compact hatch like no other, as we recently found out. Citroen designers were tasked with making the already aerodynamically efficient (0.31Cd) and attractive DS3 DSport even more desirable by giving owners the ability to add personal touches to their hatchback. Customisation includes roof, body, exterior mirror housings and wheels - in all 29 individual colour combinations which, when combined with new roof decals, allows for up to 200 options. The new roof decal kits - plane, squares, co-design, perle (polka dot), graphic art, zebra and tribal - each available in a wide range of colours, help ensure no two cars are the same. More subtly, a new optional roof colour, Vert Emeraude (emerald green) has been added to the MY15 DS3 DSport, while 17-inch Aphrodite black alloy wheels underscore the car’s highart styling. Cutting edge elements are not restricted to appearance alone, with the car featuring headlights combining LED and Xenon technology with sequential turn indicators, a world first. Capping off the whole combination is a floating roof, a la Mini, and shark fin antenna, giving the DS3 Sport a unique squat, ready-to-pounce animalistic profile.
Inside is no different with equipment reflecting a wide range of trends and lifestyles through customised gear knobs and other accessories in assorted colours, fabrics, materials and themes. Citroen says it has imbued the interior with French-style luxury, which includes the top of the dashboard finished in an organic soft grain in contrast to the smooth lacquered dash strip. Up to five occupants are settled in leather upholstered seats in three colours with contrasting stitching, while some components are highlighted with chrome trim, including the DS badge. The dash is set high to increase leg room up front, while thin-back front seats reciprocate the freedom in the rear. A 60:40 folding rear seat boosts the already class-leading boot space of 285 litres. Rear-view camera and parking sensors have been added to the MY15 DS3 DSport, with vision, including guidelines, coming via the seven-inch eMyWay satellite navigation screen situated in the centre console. Heated and power-folding door mirrors and electro-chromatic rearview mirror are backed up by automatic headlamps and wipers. The DS3 DSport calls on a member of an award winning engine family for its increased power (6 kW) and fuel efficiency (down 0.4 L/100km). The turbocharged 1.6-litre four-cylinder petrol motor produces 121 kW and 240 Nm, enabling the sprint to 100 kilometres per hour to be achieved in a sporting 7.5 seconds. Technological upgrades and weight savings, including stop / start technology, have the engine sipping just 5.6 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres on the combined urban / highway cycle, while putting out 129 grams of carbon dioxide per kilometre, which all adds up to a Euro 6 emission grading. Carried over from the previous model is the six-speed manual transmission. It’s worth noting an 88 kW DS3 DStyle four-speed automatic model has been held off until a new auto becomes available. The Citroen DS3 DSport may be a star performer when let loose, but it is also an effective minder in tight traffic thanks to innovative Active City Brake technology, which operates at speeds below 31 km/h. Consisting of a laser sensor situated behind the rear-view mirror mount, the unit detects a vehicle in front and if it slows or stops too quickly, the system automatically applies the DSport’s brakes.
Like no other ... the new Citroen DS3 DSport hatch offers a unique experience to owners.

Operating on two levels - crash avoidance, between 0 and 27 km/h; and crash mitigation, between 28 and 30 km/h - Active City Brake switches off at 31 km/h and above. A comprehensive cast of active safety systems electronic stability program, anti-skid brakes, electronic brake force distribution and emergency brake assist - adds to the car’s on-road good behaviour, while six airbags automatic door unlocking come into action in a crash. Being of three-door configuration there is the usual awkward duck-andtwist manoeuvre into the back seats, but once there, best use has been made of the limited exterior dimensions. The driver and front seat passenger are treated to a wealth of legroom, thanks in part to a high-set dashboard.
While the turbocharged engine has the car rated at 7.5 seconds for the zero-to-100 km/h dash, there was a hint of delay between pedal pressure and vehicle reaction. On the fly, with slick shifts between all six gear ratios, the DS3 DsSport was a delight to drive. We are told Citroen engineers had paid particular attention to feedback to the driver from the finely tuned suspension, through the uniquely calibrated steering system to the steering wheel. However, I was taken aback by the leather trimmed sports steering wheel, which is surprisingly sparing in connectivity with the car, being devoid of any system controls - air-con, audio etc. The test car used a frugal 4.1 litres of fuel per 100 kilometres on the
motorway but up to three times that amount in crowded city streets. The maker puts the combined urban / highway usage at 5.6 litres per 100 kilometres. While feeling particularly safe travelling over a range of road surfaces, some broken and verging on the dangerous, it is good to know that Citroen DS3 DSport owners enjoy a consistently ‘good ride’ with the car’s impressive six-year unlimited kilometre warranty, six years roadside assist, plus six years capped price service plan. Citroen has really hit it off with the DS3 DSport: this is some car to see, and be seen in. It’s also pleasing to drive in a mix of road conditions, and when set free, there’s no holding back.

ALREADY a standout vehicle, even more so in the bright yellow model we’ve just stepped out of, Nissan Juke is now even more radical thanks to a major makeover that arrived a couple of months back. So radical was the style, with huge foglights that look like driving lights, and headlights that sit on top of the front guards (and look like blinkers) that Nissan Australia decided not to bring it down-under. That was until other mini SUVs with interesting shapes arrived - Ford Kuga and Holden Trax being standouts - that Nissan decided it was time to bring it to our market. Juke Series 2’s frontal makeover is based on the Nissan so-called ‘V-Motion’ shape which gives it a big huge area and a slimmer upper section. The Nissan designers tell us the headlights are based on a boomerang shape, we struggle to see any resemblance, perhaps the designers should be sent down-under for a while to do a rework! The front and rear wheel arches bulge up and out and seemingly last forever. Juke can be mistaken as a crossover of an SUV and a two-door coupe thanks to its disguised rear door handles. The rear bumper is bigger and the taillights, again, have what Nissan calls a boomerang design. Juke’s blinkers previously sat on the top of the headlights. Many drivers found this distracting at night so as part of the facelift the designers have shifted them to a conventional position in the door mirrors. New colours have been added including Bumblebee Yellow (as on our test Juke), Magnetic Red and Ink Blue.

Juke’s cabin isn’t as radical as the body but oversize instruments, the centre console and gear lever housing continue the exterior’s curvaceous theme. The topline Juke Ti-S was our test vehicle. It has a turbocharged 1.6-litre petrol that’s also seen in the Nissan Pulsar SSS and produces up to 140 kW power and 240 Newton metres of torque. Most owners will therefore be getting peak grunt virtually all of the time. With 2WD this 1.6 turbo-petrol comes with a six-speed manual, but the AWD uses the CVT auto. All Juke models get front, side and curtain airbags; stability and traction control; ABS brakes with electronic brakeforce distribution and brake assist; IsoFix child seat anchorages; and a reversing camera. There’s good front headroom and the driver’s seat is comfortable and supports well in bends. The lack of telescopic steering wheel adjustment is a surprising omission. The rear seat has reasonable legroom but it will sometimes be necessary for tall people in the back to do a deal with those in the front on longer trips. The original Nissan Juke with front-wheeldrive used the same rear underbody as the allwheel-drive and there’s a big empty space under the floor of the 2WD where the rear differential wasn’t fitted. Sanity has prevailed and Juke’s with 2WD have gained a whopping 40 per cent more luggage space, at 354 litres. The Juke with AWD still has the smaller 251-litre boot of the first model. Folding rear seatbacks, with a 60/40 split, are used with both drivetrains. The comfort / ride balance is good for most owners. Nissan Juke grips in corners and it will take a harsh driver to upset it, in which case the electronic aids will step in and help save them. However, those who are looking for the sort of sportiness which Nissans often produces will probably be better off looking elsewhere. Nissan Juke dares to be different - really different - so polarises opinions.
