INSIDE Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius says police must reach out to the community. 143853. Pictures: GARY SISSONS
■ Police say they will continue to reach out to overcome extremist ideologies...
Radical solution By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS AFTER the shockwaves of 18-year-old Numan Haider’s fateful attack on officers in Endeavour Hills nearly 12 months ago, police are refusing to “retreat in a fortress”, says the region’s top cop. Assistant Commissioner Luke Cornelius, who oversees the Southern Metropolitan police region, told the Journal: “Since Endeavour Hills, our outreach in the community has grown very significantly. “We actually see that as a much more effective way of dealing with the risk we face. “We police for the community and in the community. We don’t want to retreat in a fortress.” The Haider incident – as well as an alleged plot to target police at an Anzac Day service in Dandenong this year – highlighted the need to go out and “explain what we do and answer the community’s questions”. “We were changed as a result of the Endeavour Hills incident (and the Anzac Day threat). “It brought home to us the nature of the risk we face.” It led to an escalated awareness of police officers’ personal security and a review of security at police stations in the region. Mr Cornelius said there was currently no identified, active threat against police. “There’s nothing out there that would cause me to say we will withdraw our outreach and engagement.” In the aftermath, Star News reported on some of the police’s outreach efforts such as cross-cul-
tural seminars between officers and community leaders. At the end of Ramadan, police – including Superintendent Russell Barrett – helped a Doveton mosque’s members hand out food to neighbours. Mr Cornelius said he was looking forward to the state Coroner’s findings so that the public could learn “as transparently and accountably as we can” what happened on 23 September 2014 at Endeavour Hills Police Station. It was widely reported that Mr Haider, influenced by Islamic State propaganda, was fatally shot by police in self-defence after he stabbed two officers with a bladed weapon in a premeditated attack. Mr Cornelius described disengaged youth as one of two main priorities; the other was the region’s high rate of family violence. He said the best response to young people wishing to harm police and the public was a positive narrative counteracting a “negative narrative from other sources”. Mr Cornelius said young people within the Muslim community were not the only ones at risk of being seduced onto harmful paths. There were also problems with outlaw motorcycle gangs recruiting young Pacific Islander “muscle” or Reclaim Australia and United Patriots Front radicalising youth. Part of the challenge was for alternative education and work opportunities for young people who were at risk of falling through the cracks. “We need to be reaching out to these individuals and find ways to reconnect them to the community.”

Driver gets locked up for no interlock A MAN who violently scuffled with police last month after he was jailed for persistently driving without a court-ordered alcohol interlock device has faced court again. Vincent Jean-Paul Manuel pleaded guilty to driving with false plates, expired registration and without an interlock at a hearing at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday 31 August. Defence lawyer Rachel Hopkins told the court that the offence in Hampton Park on 13 April could have been consolidated with others
heard by the court two weeks earlier. At that earlier hearing, Manuel was jailed for two months, disqualified from driving for a year and fined $1500 on six counts of driving without an interlock in Narre Warren and Doveton between September 2014 and May. He also pleaded guilty to several counts of driving with false plates, driving unregistered, failing to answer bail, ice possession and resisting arrest. At the time of his offending, he was serving a community corrections order for driving without an in-
terlock device in 2013. Ms Hopkins said her client had been diagnosed with depression, anxiety and posttraumatic stress - stemming from being stabbed in the head in 2007. He had also been injured in a car crash in 2013. Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said Manuel was “a lot calmer” than he was at his previous court appearance - a reference to the accused repeatedly yelling expletives and struggling with police officers after he was sentenced last month. He said Manuel’s offending was “unforgiveable” given his history
of drink-driving. It was an issue of “public safety” - though Mr Vandersteen noted there was no alcohol or crashes involved in the April incident. “Hopefully this will be the last time you have to be in court. “It shows if you keep pushing the boundaries it leads to imprisonment.” Manuel was sentenced to 21 days’ jail, served concurrently with his two-month imprisonment. He was convicted and fined $600.
Wild party boy Corey enjoys his hangover SEVEN years after he threw THAT party, Corey Worthington says he has no regrets. After all, the now 24-year-old is still getting publicity from throwing the out-of-control party at his parents’ Narre Warren home in 2008, where more than 500 people turned up after the invitation went viral on Myspace. And the notorious party boy is set for a walk down the aisle in November - having finally been tamed by Melissa, who he met through friends and has known for five or six years. On top of that, Corey currently features in a Father’s Day advertisement for the online gift retailer Red Balloon, where he buys his dad a biplane ride to atone for his past indiscretions - under the tagline ‘Clean the Slate’. “Why would you regret it? I was 16, it was fun,” Corey told Star News. “Any 16-year-old - I say it to anyone - if you’ve got cameras chucked in your face, people throwing money, getting to go overseas, getting to go around Australia, getting to meet famous people. Why not? Why wouldn’t you do it? “Getting to go on Big Brother, for throwing one simple party, it just went ’boom’. “I enjoyed it and I would do it all over again in a heartbeat.” And while Corey, who works full-time as a concreter and still lives locally, admitted he wished his parents hadn’t been dragged into the media spotlight along with him, it seems time really does heal all wounds. Even for Corey, with his Dad set
A CAR was stolen from an Endeavour Hills property after burglars broke into the house and grabbed the keys from inside. The offenders are thought to have entered the James Cook Drive home about 10pm on Sunday 30 August before taking the car keys and stealing a white Holden Rodeo.

The victim handed over his money and the raider was last seen running away along Box Street. He is described as 180 centimetres tall, of thin build, and wearing black clothing and a black hood over his face at the time. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or make a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Car stolen after break-in
Funeral Director ...the little things make a difference
Former party boy Corey Worthington is now on the straight and narrow. 143712 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS to be best man at his wedding in November. “It took a little bit for them to get over what happened but they knew I was 16 and that I didn’t mean for it to get out of hand but they knew like ... look what came out of it,” he said. “They were sort of proud with how I handled a lot of situations as well. Because for a 16-year-old to take on all that, it was a lot at the time. “Cameras in my face left, right and centre - it was full-on.” Corey made international headlines after throwing the unchaperoned party, notorious for how quickly it spiralled out of hand.
And his notoriety continued following the A Current Affair interview where he refused to take off his iconic sunglasses. But with no sunnies over his eyes, and a wedding on the horizon, Corey says he’s matured and appreciated the path his life had taken. “What can you say? I don’t know, it was weird. It made international news and it still does make news seven years on,” he said. “It’s good I guess, I do enjoy it. I’m a lot older so I can handle things a lot better as well. “Back then some of the things I was meant to do, I sort of didn’t want to do it. I was a lot younger but
now I see it more with a business mind.” With the idea for an app in the pipeline, and plans currently in motion for Corey to help host a charity party soon, the future looks bright for the former party boy. “I never thought it would reach that level but once it did, you’ve gotta roll with it,” he said. “If you try to fight it, it could have gotten a lot worse. “You just had to roll with it and just see what happens after and I did and look - it’s seven years on and I’m still getting interviews and people coming and talking about the party I did when I was 16.”

Mohammad loves delicious world of food By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS DISHING up delicious MiddleEastern cuisine out of a one-man kitchen six days a week is no pressure, says well-travelled chef Mohammad Jordy. Zaytoun, his recently-opened homely cafe is a “holiday” compared to cooking for up to 2000 diners in big hotels in New Zealand, Palestine, Lebanon and Jordan. But don’t be fooled into thinking that Jordy is now going through the motions. This is high-class, generous food at an affordable price. His traditional dishes such as felafel, hummus, kofta, labni and
EAT LOCAL, DINE GLOBAL fatteh are prepared from scratch with highest-quality chick peas, beef and fava beans. They are fastidiously presented on attractive platters with mixed pickled vegetables - including searing chillis - and olives imported from the Middle East. The biggest surprise is Jordy’s nod to ‘Australian’ cuisine - a topquality scotch fillet steak with French fries and ultra-creamy mushroom sauce. He said he used
to serve such steak for $49 when he cooked in a Docklands restaurant earlier this year. At Zaytoun, his 200-plus gram serves of freshly-cleaved steak are astonishingly priced at $13. That’s as expensive as this place gets - most of these uncommonly fine dishes are under $10. Understandably it’s getting a loyal following from steak lovers in the area. There is also a loyal legion of diners who say the Middle-Eastern dishes are the best in the southeast. Personally, I haven’t found a better, lighter felafel - an incred-
ibly soft chickpea mix infused with cotton oil and enclosed in a crispy shell. Jordy said he is inspired by several master chefs who took him under their wings, as well as by his mother who used to put “so much love” into her food. Even under the pressure of waiting and cooking for up to 20 customers, Jordy said he makes food with “a smile on my face”. “I don’t hide in a corner - I like to talk to people. “I make friends all over the world.” Zaytoun is open Tuesday to Sunday, 9.30am to 9pm at Railway Parade, Noble Park.

LOOKING BACK The Journal 100 years ago 2 September 1915 A Reception at Dandenong For Australian Wounded Soldiers A meeting was held at the Dandenong Town Hall on Monday evening for the purpose of making arrangements to entertain about 200 of the wounded Australian soldiers recently returned from fighting the Empire’s battles at Gallipoli. There was a large attendance and Mr Field suggested, in view of the crowded state of the Council Chambers, that the meeting adjoin to the Town Hall, which was agreed to. The Chairman Cr Pearson read a circular letter which he had received suggesting that a motor trip might be arranged at Dandenong on Saturday next. He had also to inform them that
a meeting of residents had been held on Saturday when it was decided to convene a public meeting for that evening, the announcement being made at the various churches and at the picture show. They had therefore met to arrange for the reception of wounded soldiers when they arrived at Dandenong on Saturday and he felt sure the people of Dandenong would not be behind in the matter. The soldiers would arrive at 3.15pm and that afternoon tea might be provided at 3.45pm, the departure of the men being fixed at 5.15pm. A list of eatables had been furnished and cigars and cigarettes would be acceptable – the men did not want biscuits, they had had enough of them already. That day the councillors had donated £4/8/- and the best part of a box of cigars.
He hoped the reception would be carried out in a manner worthy of the Town of Dandenong. Cr Keys said that it was estimated that £40 would be required to provide for entertaining the wounded soldiers, moved that 2 committees be formed, comprising of 20 ladies and 10 gentleman.
All unmarried, Ida is 77, Bert 74, and Hilda (‘the baby’) is 70. The farthest they have been from their home is Orbost, Victoria. Over the years their home has been renovated, but part of it – vertical red-gum weatherboards – still stands as it was originally built some hundred years ago.
50 years ago 8 September 1965 Time stands still for Trio ‘They let the rest of the world go by’ While the world has progressed from horseless carriages to whispering jets, a little bit of Australia has peacefully stood still for three old Dandenong residents. Ida, Bert and Hilda Blackmore – brother and sisters – were born, brought up and have lived all their lives at 104 Kirkham Rd, a road that was named after their mother’s family.

Aerosol can burn threat By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN accused of threatening his Dandenong South ex-partner by lighting the spray from an aerosol can near her face has been refused bail. The man had been on appeal bail at the time after being sentenced to four months’ jail on 24 August for family violence intervention order breaches against the victim. Police informant Senior Constable Nathaniel Gilmore told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on Monday 31 August that the man was found intoxicated outside the victim’s home one evening last week. He had been banned under an intervention order from being within 200 metres of the victim’s address if he was alcohol affected. Sen Const Gilmore said the accused admitted drinking three bottles of 18 per cent alcohol “shaken premium smoothie mix”. The man told police he was accustomed to drinking a bottle of bourbon a day. Earlier that day at 1am, the
man allegedly visited the address and asked the victim to accompany him to a Dandenong bottle shop to buy two bottles of alcohol. After initially asking him to leave, she complied and drank with him on the banks of Dandenong Creek. The court was told the man became frustrated with his expartner and punched the right side of her head. She was followed home by him despite telling the man to leave. At her home, he picked up an aerosol can and lit a flame near her face. The victim alleged she could feel heat from the fire but was protected from injury by her cap. The man then left and was arrested by police when he returned that evening. Sen Const Gilmore said the man’s mother was happy to have him stay with her in Mulgrave but “it’s her belief that ... there’s no doubt he’d commit further offences”. He told the court the man took advantage of the victim’s
acquired brain injury. Defence lawyer Bernard Keating conceded his client had a “significant history” of family violence towards the victim. Mr Keating said there was evidence the man was drunk near the victim’s home but denied the other allegations which were similar to others yet to be heard at Ringwood Magistrates’ Court. “He denies he was with the victim at all. There doesn’t seem to be any supportive evidence for those allegations.” Magistrate Jack Vandersteen noted the man had previously breached bail, community corrections and intervention orders. “I can’t see anything here at all that he’s complied with.” Mr Vandersteen imposed a full intervention order and refused bail because of the man’s persistent breaching of intervention orders against the victim “not over days but over years”. The man was remanded in custody to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 21 September.
Crestani Rises Up ladder By LACHLAN MOORHEAD CASEY Councillor Rosalie Crestani was last week chosen as the deputy president of the Rise Up Australia Party (RUAP). Cr Crestani was appointed to the role - which has been formally vacant for roughly two years - in a unanimous vote at a RUAP national executive meeting held last Thursday night, and will work under the party’s president and controversial Catch the Fire Ministries pastor Danny Nalliah. Cr Crestani has been a member of the RUAP since early 2013 and ran as candidate for the group in last year’s State Election, as well as the most recent Federal Election. The RUAP uses the slogan, ‘Keep Australia Australian’, opposes gay marriage and also wants to remove the word multiculturalism from political debate and replace it with “multiethnic”.
Cr Crestani said she didn’t hesitate in taking on the role. “My role won’t change a big deal, this will allow me to fill in
for the president when needed,” Cr Crestani said. “I feel a great sense of duty, and I will need to perhaps provide more time and service to the party.” But Cr Crestani said the new role wouldn’t conflict with her council duties. The announcement comes as Cr Crestani prepares to sit down for a dinner with South Eastern Metropolitan state Greens MP Nina Springle and the Islamic Council of Victoria after Ms Springle criticised Cr Crestani’s involvement in the recent Reclaim Australia rally in the city. Ms Springle sent the invitation after criticising Cr Crestani for emceeing last month’s Reclaim Australia rally in the city, which turned violent when antiIslam and anti-racism groups attempted to clash across police lines. The dinner is expected to be held later this month or in early October.

Swim students dive in By CASEY NEILL BLIND or vision impaired students have dived into free, specialised swimming lessons in Dandenong. North Lodge Swimming Academy with support from the Rotary Club of Dandenong South East will hold weekly classes for students from Berwick school Insight Education Centre for the Blind and Vision Impaired. Pool head coach and managing director Leanne Byron said the swimmers at an introductory session on Saturday 29 August were “so inspirational and extremely responsive”. “They loved the smell of the pool, the feel of the water and the sounds of happy people,” she said. One girl said the pool reminded her of a pool in Italy. “And she thought the mini pool filter sounded like a piano,” Ms Byron said. “The squeals of delight and the splashing and swimming around in the pool made it all worthwhile. “How exciting for these children to have the opportunity to enjoy the water and its relaxing qualities.” Ms Byron said the children had other challenges in addition to their vision problems, including autism, fragile X syndrome and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). “These children gave us such joy - they are caring little souls, full of life, inquisitive, at times cheeky and extremely courageous,” she said.
Swimmers do the hokey pokey splash.
Ben floats on by.
“Our introductory day was a great success. “We are all looking forward to continuing our work with these children. “Exploration in the water is so important for children learning to swim - if it’s not fun they’re not always willing to give new things a try.” Insight principal Timothy Hemphill said there was an atmosphere of “celebration and excitement” during the class. “Parents and helpers delighted in the sheer joy and fun the students were having in the pool,” he said. Ben, Josiah, Noah and Christian donned new caps and goggles and teamed up with their personal instructors for individualised lessons.

Josiah learns to use a kickboard. “Ben was our navy seal,” Mr Hemphill said. “He was diving into the deep end for submerged rings and celebrated every catch he made with his mum nearby, as he burst through the water again and again holding his prize above his head.” He said Noah had a grin from ear to ear as his instructor took
him on swimming activities up and down the pool. “Josiah got stuck straight into his lessons and was soon doing breathing exercises and practising his swimming strokes with a kickboard,” Mr Hemphill said. “Christian managed to scope out every inch of the pool, eager to know every angle and architectural feature of the pool itself
Pictures: JARROD POTTER - the diving blocks were particularly fascinating for him.” Dandenong South East Rotarians cooked up a sausage sizzle after the lesson that lured the kids out of the pool. “When the lessons finished and time in the pool came to an end, none of the children wanted to get out,” Mr Hemphill said. “They had all developed quite an appetite, managing to wolf down more than their fair share of sausages in bread with copious amounts of tomato sauce.” He welcomed inquiries regarding participation in the program. Insight Education Centre for the Blind and Vision Impaired is at 120 Enterprise Avenue, Berwick, and can be contacted on 9707 1585.
Stories take their pride of place WHAT does Doveton mean to you? Dandenong MP Gabrielle Williams is inviting residents to share exactly that. She’ll host the We Are Doveton forum from 6pm to 8pm on Wednesday 23 September. Ms Williams said she wanted to hear about people’s experience of life in Doveton, their concerns, aspirations and points of pride. “In recent weeks there has been a lot of commentary on Doveton, and it’s important that the residents of Doveton are part of this discussion, not just the subject of it,” she said. “Doveton is a proud and vibrant community and I’ve got no interest in talking it down. “But, as a newly-elected member of Parliament, I do want to engage the people of Doveton on the issues that matter most to them.” Ms Williams will host the forum at Doveton Football Club, at the corner of Oak Avenue and Paperbark Street, Doveton. For catering purposes, RSVP by Friday 18 September to 9793 2000 or gabrielle.williams@parliament.vic.gov.au.

RAFAL KAPLON
SAM AZIZ
Casey defends Aziz By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE City of Casey has slammed what it labelled an “ongoing and coordinated political and media campaign” against Councillor Sam Aziz. The criticism was made in a media statement released by council on Tuesday morning, after media reports detailing bullying allegations levelled at Cr Aziz by fellow councillor, Rafal Kaplon. In parliament on 20 August, Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan attacked comments made by Cr Aziz in an email - sent to Cr Kaplon and other councillors where he allegedly referred to Cr Kaplon as a “parasitic mosquito”. The matter is currently being investigated by the Councillor Conduct Panel. “Recently Cr Rafal Kaplon, who is from the gay community, was referred to by Sam Aziz as a ‘parasitic mosquito who thrives by spreading
blood-borne viruses between otherwise healthy people’,” Mr Donnellan told the parliament. “They are totally and utterly inappropriate comments from a councillor in the State of Victoria.” Mr Donnellan also referred to comments made on Facebook by Cr Aziz last year about the Islamic community following the September police shooting in Endeavour Hills. “Recently he made the following comments in relation to the Islamic community: ‘Dear so-called Muslim leaders - I am sorry you feel alienated in Australia. Perhaps you would be far more comfortable leaving Australia (with its liberties and welfare system) and go back to somewhere in the desert in Arabia, where you can engage in oppression, violence and any other 7th century activity that does not belong in a civilised country in our time,’” Mr Donnellan said.
“Those comments are totally inappropriate. This person is not fit to be a councillor in the City of Casey. “Many of his fellow councillors have great fear in relation to his behaviour and language, and it is not a safe workplace.” But Casey Mayor Mick Morland hit back at Mr Donnellan on Tuesday, saying to state “many of his (Cr Aziz’s) fellow councillors have great fear about his language and behaviour is simply nonsense”. “I’m aware that a majority of our councillors support Cr Aziz and the excellent contribution he makes to our community,” Cr Morland said. “While Cr Aziz is a very articulate communicator, he can be robust and forthright, but this is absolutely no reason to attack him in such an appalling manner.” Cr Aziz told the News that Mr Donnellan had taken his comments about Cr Kaplon out of context. “He’s made it look like I’m
criticising Cr Kaplon for his sexual orientation - people’s sexual orientation is none of my business - but what is my business is the performance and professionalism of a councillor,” he said. Cr Aziz also said Mr Donnellan took his comments made about the Muslim community following Numan Haider’s death out of context, under parliamentary privilege. “After last year’s incident some of the Muslim community came out and said basically people do that when they feel alienated, and I have a deep problem with this type of attitude,” he said. “It’s not an excuse, there’s underlying issues that need to be addressed by community leaders. “I simply made the statement that if you feel alienated in Australia, with its wonderful welfare system and wonderful liberties, this is not a place that you should continue be in.”

THE Doveton Show proves that a day out at the show doesn’t have to cost families hundreds of dollars. For the cost of a gold-coin entry, families can stroll Myuna Farm’s grounds filled with lowcost rides, foods, showbags and free entertainers, animals and activities. The show’s treasurer Veronica Hill said the day out will certainly cost a family less than to get through this month’s Royal Melbourne Show gates - ticketed at $70-plus family entry or $105 for an entry and rides package.
“The whole idea of the show is to supply a cheap alternative for people who can’t otherwise afford to go to the show,” Ms Hill said. “There’s plenty of free activities. Someone could go in for a gold coin and not have to spend anything to keep themselves occupied for the whole day.” Crowds are clearly voting with their feet. When it started 11 years ago, about 3000 attended - last year drew a record crowd of more than 22,000. The show’s 10-member volunteer committee has spent six months organising attractions. Rides include a giant slide,

jumping castle, dodgem cars, thrill rides, the farm’s train ride and bungee. There are also free childrens crafts and reading activities, vintage cars, music and a stage and roving performance by stilt-walking clown Flash Twinkle Toes’ Silly Circus. Community groups will also be raising money at food stalls. “It’s a great family day out,” Ms Hill said. “People are enjoying it and that’s why they’re coming back.” Doveton Show is at Myuna Farm, 182 Kidds Road, Doveton, on Sunday 20 September from 10am to 4pm.

IT’S NONE OF OUR BUSINESS BUT‌ SURELY the only project in the running for an award will be taking home the prize? Greater Dandenong Council was announced as the sole finalist for the More Family and Child Friendly category at the Victorian Early Years Awards - but won’t find out if it’s been successful until 28 October. An Education Department spokesman said the judging panel felt the council’s Family Health in Playgrounds nomination was stronger than the other nominee for the category and it was more appropriate to put just one finalist forward. ALEX Woller has no trouble taking a complement. The award-winning apprentice was a guest speaker at the Lunch with the Winners motivational event in Springvale last week. MC James Sturgess said he saw Alex receiving his Chisholm Apprentice of the Year award - wearing a suit for the first time. “You looked sensational,â€? James said. Alex quickly replied: “I did.â€? IN HIS role at Dandenong manufacturer Actco-Pickering, Alex makes window pillars for Bombardier V/Line trains. James asked if anyone in the crowd had been on a V/Line. “The reason you got to stay in the train was because the window didn’t fall out, and the reason it didn’t fall out was because of Alex,â€? he told those with their hands up. Alex turned to the audience and said: “You’re all welcome.â€? A JUDGE at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court seemed bemused that an accused intended to plead not guilty after court security had detected a flick knife in her handbag. Her lawyer claimed that the accused had had the knife in her bag for the past 12 months and had forgotten it was there. “How can you forget that you have a flick knife?â€? came the magistrate’s rhetorical retort.

Arts honour shared TWO community members were honoured as joint winners of the 2015 Lindsay King Arts Award last week. Gregory Marks and Revati Ilanko were named the shared recipients of Casey’s highest individual honour for the arts at the annual Mayoral Arts Dinner, held on Friday 28 August, at the Casey Civic Centre. Casey mayor Mick Morland congratulated the winners, who he said had gone above and beyond to help develop, support and promote the arts in Casey. “The Lindsay King Arts Award is Casey’s most prestigious arts award and both Gregory and Revati are worthy recipients given their passion and dedication to creating opportunities for the community to get involved in and enjoy the arts,� Cr Morland said. “The council thanks them both for their contribution to the arts locally and the many others who devote their time to all forms of art here in Casey. “Casey is home to a thriving arts scene and the Mayoral Arts Dinner is the council’s opportunity to celebrate the strength of our arts community, as well as the success of the council’s three-month long Winter Arts Festival, which wraps up at the end of August.� Gregory Marks is the current director of the Casey Concert Band and has committed more than 50 years to the arts. He has taken the band’s membership from eight musicians to 40 and through his dedication and expertise has led the group to become a major contributor to the arts in Casey. He has also assisted in raising more than $10,000 for Berwick Primary School which enabled them to expand their music department.
The 2015 Lindsay King Arts Award joint winners Revati Ilanko and Gregory Marks with City of Casey mayor Mick Morland and deputy mayor Louise Berkelmans. Revati Ilanko is the owner of the Indian dance academy, Navaratna Arts, and is the executive officer at the Federation of Indian Origin Multi-Faith Organisation (FIMO) - a non-profit peak body bringing people from multiple faiths together.
Revati has been instrumental in bringing together the Indian and Sri Lankan communities in Casey by supporting and tailoring events that appeal to everybody. She is a former member of the council’s Arts and Cultural Advisory Committee.
Established in 2007, the Lindsay King Arts Award was named in memory of a Cranbourne resident whose vigorous commitment to the arts and passion for local history, tourism and culture made a significant impact on the Casey community.

Reaching out By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE former First Lady of East Timor made a special visit to the City of Casey last month to speak to the Friends of Ermera and the local community. Melbourne-born Kirsty Sword Gusmao, who was married to the former President and Prime Minister of East Timor Xanana Gusmao for 15 years, was the guest of honour at the special presentation held on 14 August at the Narre Warren council chambers and hosted by Casey Mayoress Kay Morland. Ms Gusmao, who was recently awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) in acknowledgement of her many years fighting for East Timor’s independence, told guests she had been “struck” by how the focus of the Friends of Ermera aligned “almost perfectly” with the work of the Alola Foundation.
Ms Gusmao set up the foundation in 2001 to raise awareness of the widespread sexual violence against women and girls in Timor-Leste during militia attacks in 1999. “Education underpins every single development challenge that Timor-Leste faces today,” Ms Gusmao said. “And girls’ education is, I believe, of fundamental importance to the future prosperity and well-being of the East Timorese people. “As the saying goes, ‘when you educate a man, you educate a man, but when you educate a woman, you educate an entire community’. “Some may dispute this, but the fact is that there is a very direct and positive correlation between levels of education of girls and women in a society and the health and well-being of families.”
Ms Gusmao also made special mention of the Friends of Ermera’s contribution to early childhood development in East Timor. “Given the dearth of learning materials in schools, Friends of Ermera’s work in the field of resource development is very welcome indeed,” Ms Gusmao said. “I myself have had the privilege of working over the past 12 months with the team within the Ministry of Education charged with developing a new primary curriculum and related resources.” Friends of Ermera member Jan Tresize congratulated Ms Gusmao for being “an inspiration to the people of Timor Leste and to many in the international community who are supporting the Timorese to build their new nation.”

Students cash in to profit IT WAS back to business for the students from Maranatha Christian School this month. From Monday 31 August to Friday 4 September the year 10 and 11 students from the school, based in Endeavour Hills, operated their own shopping stalls to celebrate Small Business Week. In groups of three the Maranatha students were encouraged to plan, launch and manage a real business, first by creating a business idea and then rolling it out during recess and lunchtimes for five days. Each day the groups sold a variety of foods, with the students using their own capital to fund the project and splitting any profits made among group members. The Maranatha canteen area was transformed into a small business marketplace for the whole week, with all groups asked to pay a small fee to ‘rent’ the space. Each group was also required to do their own advertising in the lead-up to the event, as well as being responsible for the design and cost of their uniforms and stall displays. News photographer ROB CAREW dropped by the school during recess on Friday, while all the high school entrepreneurs were hard at work.

Whyte said. “Tax Help volunteers can help you complete a simple tax return with myTax, claim a refund of franking credits or notify the ATO if you don’t need to lodge a tax return at all. “Our volunteers will also use your myGov account to lodge online where possible.” Mr Whyte said people earning less than $50,000 each year and with straightforward tax affairs are eligible to use the Tax Help service. “Tax Help caters for people from all different backgrounds. There are also several centres dedicated to assisting people new to Australia.” Mr Whyte also encouraged people with straightforward tax
affairs to try out myTax themselves before heading to their closest Tax Help centre. “Tax Help is a great service, but if you haven’t tried myTax before, why not give it a shot on your own before making an appointment. “The great thing about myTax is that it only asks the questions that are relevant to you, and also it pre-fills all your information which means all you have to do is double check your information, input any deductions and then hit submit.” Tax Help is available each year until 31 October. Visit ato.gov.au/taxhelp or phone 132 861 to make an appointment at a Tax Help centre.

Assistant Commissioner Graham Whyte said almost 1000 volunteers from 700 community centres across Australia will be supporting people who need assistance completing their tax returns this year. “We know that for many Australians the thought of doing their own tax return might seem a little bit daunting, that’s why we have Tax Help.” “Tax Help is a free and confidential service provided by ATO-trained and accredited local volunteers. “Last year over 50,000 people received assistance from our Tax Help volunteers,” Mr

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
Together for success By KATHRYN BERMINGHAM BUSINESSES providing essential health, education and wellbeing services were recognised for their success in the Casey-Cardinia Business Award nominations. Kinders Together is a not-for-profit organisation which manages 15 kindergartens in the Cardinia Shire. It was founded in 2006 and has since grown exponentially, now employing more than 60 part-time, full-time and casual early childhood educators within its centres. Earlier this year, Kinders Together opened a new foyer at Pakenham Heights Kindergarten. Money for the new facility was raised through years of dedicated fundraising and planning. Grants and project development coordinator Di Price said the expansion of the kinder made the upgrade a necessity. “Prior to the construction there was no disabled access, we could fit just half a dozen parents with no room for prams, the foyer has more than doubled in size,” she said. “It has been a long-term vision, the initial grant was written three years ago.” Providing a service that could be classed as both education and health, sisters Nikki Jurcutz and Rachael Waia are co-founders of Hero Head Quarters a business that is transforming the firstaid training industry. Nikki’s background as a paramedic and Rachael’s experience in education made it a perfect opportunity for the pair, and the accolades haven’t stopped since they became the youngest ever
Health, Education and Wellbeing Australian women to own a Registered Training Organisation in 2013. Earlier this year, Nikki was named emerging entrepreneur of the year at the NAB Women’s Agenda Leadership awards and the company was also named New Business of the Year in 2014. Services offered by Hero Head Quarters including corporate first aid training and paediatric training and first aid kits which are designed to meet the needs of young children in medical emergencies. They were awarded the Casey Cardinia New Business of the Year at the 2014 business awards. Similarly, Emerald Medical Centre has achieved a number of previous business awards and developed a reputation for excellence in its field. The centre has been a hills institution since the early 1950s when it was opened by Dr Ian Mcleod Murphy. Today, as well as operating as a general practice, the medical centre houses a pathology service as well as a psychologist, a diabetes nurse and a mental health nurse. The winner will be announced at a gala dinner on Thursday 22 October at the Cranbourne Racing Club.

Future workforce faces constant changes By CASEY NEILL “JUST expect your life to be absolutely full of changes.” This was the advice from MC James Sturgess at the annual Lunch with the Winners at Sandown Racecourse in Springvale on 1 September. The SEBN and South East Local Learning and Employment (SELLEN) presented four successful young people to a room filled with Year 9 and 10 students from the Lyndale, Noble Park and Hampton Park secondary colleges, Hillcrest Christian College, Dandenong High School, Chisholm Institute, Emerson School and the Narre Warren and Carwatha College P-12s. The event showcased their different journeys through school and into work to raise awareness of possible career pathways. SEBN manager Sandra George said there were abundant job opportunities in Greater Dandenong. “Don’t let anybody tell you manufacturing is dead and dying,” she said. “It is the backbone of the country. “There are many ways to get where you want to go. “It’s not a straight line. It’s a very zigzag line.” Ms George said communication and problem-solving skills and getting along with co-workers were keys to employment. SELLEN CEO Andrew Simmons said businesses were
Personal challenge opened up the world MATTY Deane gets paid to holiday around the world. It’s a dream job, but he’s walked a hard road to get there. Matty, Alex Woller, Elliott Altmann and Alek Nyok shared their stories with Year 9 and 10 students from the south-east at the annual Lunch with the Winners. Matty wasn’t academic and “never turned up” to school so had few option after VCE. He liked the idea of personal training but friends told him there was no money in the career path. After deciding on teaching - purely for the holidays - he developed a cough. Doctors diagnosed him with cancer at age 24. With eight months of chemotherapy and two months of radiation ahead of him, Matty moved home with his mum. He listened to people complain about their days, didn’t looking for employees with the right attitude. “They know they can teach the right person,” he said. He said 88 per cent of people with a bachelor degree were employed. “If you have a Certificate III
see his friends, could feel himself getting weaker and depression started to set in. “They were filling my head with negativity,” he said. “I hadn’t realised how powerful negativity could be.” A nasty reality check on the scales prompted him to act. He moved out to escape, wrote a bucket list and pursued personal training. “There’s plenty of money in it if you’re great at it,” he said. His burning passion was to travel the world, so he found a way to make money from it. “I work until I’m tired and I travel until I’m bored,” he said. “That’s my philosophy.” Alex Woller, 20, won last year’s Chisholm Apprentice of the Year and Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce Youth Enterprise Award. He said a passion for his job and a strong work ethic were the
keys to his success. “I just do what I enjoy,” he said. Elliott Altmann, 23, moved to Melbourne from country Victoria to study robotics and mechatronics. “I chose robotics because it was a bit of everything,” he said. His uncle and the day’s MC James Sturgess said Elliott wasn’t a model student.
“It just shows that you can change your attitude,” James said. Elliott also served as an example of using personal networks to find a job. He was too busy designing and building a race car - which earned him a PACCAR Award for his design efforts - to apply for work. His brother recommended

“Our employers really need you to be able to communicate in the workplace.” Mr Simmons warned students that they might need to travel to access a job - that 27 per cent of people who worked in Greater Dandenong lived in
Casey and only 20 per cent of Greater Dandenong workers lived in the municipality. Futurist Marcus Barber spoke about potential future careers. “Programming is one of the biggest growth areas in medicine right now,” he said.

him for a graduate engineer job with a civil construction company. Alek Nyok, 23, came to Australia from North Sudan at age 10 with her older brother and his wife and two children. “For me it was almost like going into space,” she said. She settled in Ringwood and was the first Sudanese student at her school. “They didn’t know what to do with me,” she said. A move to Castlemaine for her brother’s job sent her back to square one, but she did find a love for fashion and travelled to Melbourne twice a week to develop her sewing skills. Alek returned to Sudan to visit her mum and other family at age 20 and returned with a different perspective about the value of fashion design. She changed paths and is now in her third year of an accounting degree. - CASEY NEILL “You will create the type of jobs that we knew nothing about.” Mr Barber said the world’s biggest problems - access to food, shelter and water for all - were yet to be solved. “But maybe you’ll be the generation that can,” he said.

Faces of art THE Casey Contemporary Artists’ Showcase has returned to Casey’s Civic Centre Art Space. Now in its third year, a variety of local art is on display. City of Casey mayor Mick Morland said the Casey Contemporary Artists’ Showcase was a highlight of the exhibition calendar and encouraged residents to visit. “The council had a wonderful response from contemporary artists wishing to be part of this exhibition and as a result, we’ve put together a stunning collection of works in a range
of mediums including printmaking, painting, illustration, photography and textiles,” Cr Morland said. “This year’s exhibition features pieces from 18 local artists, from emerging talent still at secondary school to experienced artists who have practised for many years. “To tie in with this year’s theme, each artwork explores the notion of Place, from physical surrounds to imagined landscapes. “The high-quality of the works on display showcases
and celebrates the extent of talent across the region in arts practice and I encourage the community to show their support for local artists and head along to this exhibition.” The exhibition can be viewed at the art space, located in the Civic Centre foyer, Magid Drive, Narre Warren, between Monday and Friday, 8am to 6pm. For more information visit www.casey.vic.gov.au/artspace or call customer service on 9705 5200.
Playgroup finalist in line for cash A PLAYGROUP project could bag $15,000 for Greater Dandenong Council. The council’s Family Health in Playgroups trial was announced on 31 August as the only finalist for the More Family and Child Friendly category at the Victorian Early Years Awards. The winner will receive $15,000 to develop and share its project learnings.
Community services director Mark Doubleday said the project was a pilot aimed at helping vulnerable families to access community services. “This was achieved by a maternal child and health nurse attending playgroups to provide information and referral pathways,” he said. “Overall, the nurse attended 15 playgroups three times each across the 33 weeks of the pro-
gram. “These visits led to a range of productive, informal and formal discussions with families about child-focused issues, including healthy eating, child development, breastfeeding, sun smart, dental health and kinder enrolments.” The official Early Years Awards winners will be announced at the National Gallery of Victoria International on 28 October.

SPORT SEABL - East Conference Final
Four on the floor By JARROD POTTER FOUR conference basketball titles in six years. The domination of Dandenong’s SEABL women continued on Saturday evening as Larissa Anderson’s charges got out of the blocks early and stayed out to claim the East Conference title with a 75-55 win over Geelong. After letting the Supercats get away in the first half of their SEABL semifinal last month, the Rangers made no such error this time around, with a conference pennant and a place in the SEABL grand final - on Dandenong’s home court no less - on the line.The clamp-down work on Sara Blicavs (13 points) - who will don the Dandenong green-and-gold in this year’s WNBL competition - was exceptional as the Australian Opals’ representative was given no inch by Dandenong’s perennial defensive elite. Clare Papavs (15 points), Alison Downie (4 points) and Faith Probst (4 points) - Dandenong’s integral frontcourters throughout the prolonged success this decade - made sure Blicavs struggled to get good looks and always had to contend with one of the three in her face, and at times more than that. Evergreen Jacinta Kennedy (16 points, 14 rebounds) continued her 2015 SEABL rampage in the key knocking in her 11th double-double of the season to put her hand squarely up for All Star Five consideration.It all started early for the Rangers pushing out to a 14-4 lead and steadily the advantage swung in their favour. Not much went right for the Super-
cats as Blicavs, Rosie Fadljevic (10 points) and Tayla Roberts (2 points) struggled to get their shots up in the key, with the Rangers swarming defensively. A 43-30 rebound count highlighted the efforts of Dandenong’s fortresslike defence - but it wasn’t just the defenders relishing the conference final. At one stage the match threatened to balloon out to 30 points following a complete Dandenong onslaught through the third, but to Geelong’s credit the visitors played out every minute and forced Dandenong to earn its title, and with it, a place in SEABL’s 2015 finale. “It was four quarters of defence and that’s exactly what our target was before the game,” coach Larissa Anderson explained. “We obviously worked on what they were going to throw at us defensively to counter that offensively - as I thought we were very undisciplined against them two weeks ago. “For the girls to bounce back that way at both ends, showed just how much quality is in this team. “It wasn’t the prettiest game... but I think the refs let them play at times… I thought both teams put on a really good spectacle and I’m so proud the team showed up for four quarters.” Dandenong will now face Kilsyth in Saturday evening’s SEABL grand final(12 September), after the Cobras - led by Endeavour Hills-born point guard Steph Cumming (21 points) defeated Bendigo in a 79-77 thriller on Saturday. “One more to go - this has been an absolute fairytale for us,” Anderson said.
Aimie Clydesdale powers to the hoop in the Rangers’ thrilling victory. 143999
Dandenong’s fourth SEABL East Conference title in six years was taken Saturday evening with a resounding Pictures: JARROD POTTER 20-point win over Geelong. 143999 “Credit to the teams last year, but we feel that was one that we let get away a little bit too. “We’ve taken that all through this
season - that hurt that we weren’t used to last year - and to the girls’ credit, to have only dropped three games so far is a phenomenal effort.
“To have that kind of success with a core group of girls over that long is something we’ll be able to cherish and hold with us forever.”
BIG V - Grand Final Series
Four for Dandy
Year of the cat By JARROD POTTER IT TOOK every ounce of Keysborough’s combined resolve, but after 18 home-and-away games and six nailbiting finals the 2015 Big V championship was earned. Finally earning a senior men’s pennant to hang from the rafters at Springers, the Cougars put behind them so many near-miss seasons and countless finals performances to pick up their inaugural flag. Steeling themselves for a monumental challenge against Western Port - culminating in two grand final clashes across the weekend (29 and 30 August) - Keysborough threw everything it had at the minor premiers to push them to the brink, especially on the Sunday with the visitors taking the championship with a 66-53 triumph. It could’ve turned out pear-shaped for the Cougars, after conceding a 15-point lead on Saturday night to lose the second grand final clash 80-81. The loss forced the series into a third-anddeciding match, but the Cougars rallied to resume their usual high-tempo tactics - running out to an 18-1 lead in the first term - which put the Steelers to the wall early.
Keysborough coach Nathan Vogt predicted his side’s leg-speed and stamina would wear down the Steelers. The Cougars outran the opposition through the first half - once again posting a sizeable lead at the main break 43-29, with thoughts of Saturday night’s capitulation not entering the equation. Neither side covered themselves in much glory through the third term - as field-goal shooting fell rapidly and fouls mounted on both sides. But Keysborough kept its stranglehold for one last term - all but negating Western Port’s output in the fourth term to take the emphatic 13-point championship victory. “We knew all along if it was going to go to a third game that we went deeper and would run them off the floor and in the end that’s exactly how it panned out,” Vogt said. Co-captains Adam Sliwinski and John Constance were thrilled to get the championship victory after years of toil - including the heartbreak of the 2012 grand-final series defeat. “It’s pretty amazing - I’ve been playing for 14 years but to finally get over that hurdle and achieve our ultimate goal is a pretty surreal experience and I’m enjoying every moment,”
All in for the win, Keysborough stood as a team rising as one to claim the 2015 Big V Division-2 Men’s championship. 143707 Picture: JARROD POTTER Constance said. “Especially after a year like 2012, we took our key points from there… we wanted to make sure that we had a different result,” Sliwinski said. Steelers’ talls Peder Whelan and Dylan Walsh struggled to stay out of foul trouble, leaving it to ephemeral Western Port guard Manny Hendrix (28 points) to burden the effort. But Keysborough’s rotation roster didn’t focus so heavily on individuals - part of its greatest strength. Vogt threw the ball around for the final time in 2015 as Adam Sliwinski (14 points), Aaron Stirton (11 points), Rob Ostojic (7 points) and Steven Haddrell (6 points) made their shots
when called upon. While everyone stood up in the final, it was mighty Malcolm Heard (20 points, 17 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals) who rose above the rest. Arriving in the league for the first time in 2015, Heard averaged 20.8 points and 10.6 rebounds throughout the season but saved one more doubledouble for his crowning moment on Sunday. It made for a mighty celebration for Vogt - who was pivotal in the creation of the club a decade ago and has coached the side since - and he believed it was a just reward for all the hard work put in by everyone behind the scenes.
VAGARIES of the draw placed all four Dandenong-based football clubs in finals on Sunday afternoon (6 September). Noble Park will go up against Vermont in the Eastern Football League Division-1 elimination final. Keysborough will play Caulfield in the Southern Football League Division-2 elimination final. St John’s will play Old Paradians in the Victorian Amateur Football Association Division-2 preliminary final. And last, but not least, the Dandenong Stingrays will go up against the Murray Bushrangers in a TAC Cup qualifying final.

Badada free to run By JARROD POTTER UNBRIDLED freedom has given upand-coming athlete Sifan Badada a chance to run for his dreams. Fourteen-year-old Badada, from Noble Park, emigrated from Ethiopia a couple of years ago to join his father and has loved every moment since he touched down. With the ability to do whatever he wants in Australia - unchecked by extreme poverty or political censorship that ravage his birthplace - Badada decided to strap on the cleats and give athletics his undivided attention. After Badada and his father moved to Noble Park, the pair was out running when spotted by athletics coach Corey Pendry... and the rest as they say is history. This time however it’s history in the making as Badada continues to push up the athletics rankings in Victoria with high-level success on the horizon. The Springvale Little Athletics Centre dynamo has won regional medals in triple jump, the 800 metres and 400 metres and finished seventh at the state championships and is rapidly improving. His athletics career has only just started to blossom, but Badada has already been recognised by the council as the Greater Dandenong Male Sports’ Athlete of the Year at the inau-
gural Sports Awards earlier this year. “It’s great, very awesome,” Badada said. “I was choking, I couldn’t believe it (winning the Sports Athlete award). “I’ve just got freedom (in Australia) - political, everything - and I would love to run for Australia internationally.” Badada’s coach Corey Pendry said his work ethic and discipline make him a joy to coach and there’s no limit to his athletic potential. “It was quite a surprise - he was just running around with his father and I had my training squad down here with about 10 kids and I said to just join in, the kids just fell in love with him as he came every single day to training… so it was good,” Pendry said. “I reckon he could be one of Australia’s best - he’s in the making and he wants to learn and has inspirations to go to the Olympics, still complete VCE and go to Haileybury. “He’s been a great contributor to my squad and it’s just fantastic to see him grow and develop as an athlete but also as a student - he runs with his heart and when he studies he just does everything with 100 per cent and nothing less.” Badada wanted to thank his coach Pendry, Springvale Little Athletics Centre and Haileybury Athletics Club for their ongoing commitment to him.
Sifan Badada has come a long way, both athletically and geographically, as he proudly shows off his Greater Dandenong Sports’ Athlete of the Picture: JARROD POTTER Year award. 143415
The perfect pet By JASON ADAMS THE ever-consistent Rugall has continued his good run of form, making it back-to-back wins on Thursday evening (6 September) at Sandown Park. Rugall was fast to begin from box one and established a two-length break down the back straight. He was only challenged in the later stages of the race however hung on to win by a head in 34.62. Trainer Benny Briffa was full of praise for Rugall. “He’s a great chaser and puts in everything that he’s got - he’s gone from strength to strength throughout his career. “When he first started racing he was only a tier-three sprinter but I’ve put a lot of time into him and he has come a long way since then,” said Briffa. Rugall boasts an impressive record having won seven and placed in 16 of his 34 career starts. “It’s funny he’s only missed a placing twice out of 14 starts over 595
metres at Sandown though he always seems to be at big odds.” Owners of Rugall have witnessed his rise first hand ever since he was a pup, and love watching him do what he does best. “There’s a group of about 10 that own Rugall, they have owned him since he was a pup and educated him - they just love watching him race and always have their $10 each-way on him.” Briffa only has three greyhounds at his property in Coolaroo and uses a local straight track in Broadmeadows to work his greyhounds. “I give them a 400-metre run up the straight, they love to chase the car as I drive alongside them. “I like to keep my dogs fresh but Rugall is a bit different, he just loves running.” At the end of Rugall’s racing career Briffa will be forced to make an influential decision. “At the end of Rugall’s career I’ll have a big problem, as all the owners are debating over who will get to keep
Benny Briffa celebrates another supreme victory for Rugall. 143998 Picture: SUPPLIED him as their pet,” laughed Briffa. Rugall’s win was one of many highlights of the evening, as it was

Pirates are Dandy By JARROD POTTER
The South East Titans’ women’s tackle team celebrates its inaugural premiership. 144000
Picture: JARROD POTTER
We are all family By JARROD POTTER REMEMBER the South East Titans, for they have just created Victorian Rugby League history. With Victorian Rugby League (VRL) expanding the women’s game to full tackle in 2015, the Dandenong-based team entered the record books as the first side to claim a women’s tackle premiership. Battling cross-town rivals Casey Warriors in a Saturday grand-final showdown at Casey Fields, the sides played out the first - of hopefully many - thrilling women’s tackle finales as the Titans took a 10-8 triumph. It was an uphill battle for the South East side but they managed to squeeze ahead through tries from
Oceani McGee and Krystel Williams. Casey Warriors didn’t go away though, as the home side also claimed two tries. McGee’s boot turned the match on its head as she booted the only goal to push the Titans ahead and take the title. Titans’ captain Ramina Matenga could not be prouder of her side, which is an on-field extension of her family. “We’re stoked - we were the underdogs and we just worked hard, stuck together and stayed together in the end,” Matenga said. “I think the dedication to each other - we’re family and just having each other’s back and staying hard we’re a very hard team.
“We’re proud we’re a fresh women’s league and hopefully it grows from here.” Metenga thought Lisa Schuster was the side’s standout player - not just for the grand final but throughout the inaugural women’s tackle season - and should be an Australian representative. The Titans community has grown dramatically in recent years - moving to Greaves Reserve and adding a men’s 1st Grade team - Matenga put it down to the community atmosphere at the club. “You don’t just take yourself, you take your entire family,” Matenga said. “It’s just about sticking together.”
2015 VRL WOMEN’S TACKLE CHAMPIONS SOUTH EAST TITANS Jamie Te Pania, Oceani McGee, Kristen McGee, Ramina Matenga, May Pompey, Cheyenne Lemon-Heremaia, Tina Daley, Leilani Kurei, Theresa Smith, Priscilla Pasina, Lisa Schuster, Krystel Williams, Sera Ulutui, Doreen Vae Vae, Tayla Abrahama, Milovale Selio, Jacqueline Toelau, coach Michael Selio and manager Grace Selio.
Lewis-Smith dreams of Dragons By JARROD POTTER TALENT has pushed Perry LewisSmith to the peak of junior football... but his determination and discipline will help him achieve just as strongly in the senior ranks. Lewis-Smith, 16, capped off his 11th and final junior football season in emphatic fashion. The Parkmore Pirates’ Premier-2 captain brilliantly signed off on his South East Juniors (SEJ) journey - helping his side to an 80-point grand-final victory over Fountain Gate, with his 44-possession, three-goal performance making him the fitting choice for the best-on-ground medal. And it wasn’t a solo effort, as the skipper also had six goal assists to support his Pirates’ crew in the clash. Two nights later Perry-Smith finished equal-first on 27 votes in the SEJ league best and fairest to round off the amazing week. “I was pretty excited - I’ve came second a couple of times, so I was really excited to win the league best and fairest this time,” Perry-Smith said. “It was my last year and probably my best year as well, so I was really stoked with how the weekend, and during the week, went.” It makes for an amazing end to 2015 but even more astounding considering he only just switched over to the Pirates this year to improve
A sensational South East Juniors season was capped off with three amazing accolades for Parkmore’s Perry Lewis-Smith. 144001 Picture: JARROD POTTER his football and was asked by the coach - former AFL footballer Rick Bean - to join the side... and also become its captain. “The only reason was the coach Rick Bean,” Lewis-Smith said. “He’s probably one of the best junior coaches in Australia and he got in contact with my parents and
he got me over.” While an elite athletic and footballing pedigree - including strong state-level finishes in athletics and cross country and wins at the Dromana Pier to Pub and Frankston MiniMarathon - is worthy of celebration, Lewis-Smith remains humble and prefers to keep focused on the tasks
ahead of him. “I never really get overly excited about things - I’m happy about them, but never really show it,” Perry-Smith said. “But of course I’m over the moon with what I’ve achieved.” He’s not sure where he’ll play his local football next year, but he’s already got his eyes set on the next big challenge - running out for the Sandringham Dragons in the 2016 TAC Cup competition where he hopes to push for a consistent spot and aim towards the AFL in years to come. “I’ve achieved plenty and I’m looking forward to the future and what it holds - my goal is to play AFL football and I’m going to have a great pre-season this year, try to get on this Sandringham list and see how I go next year,” Perry-Smith said. “It’s a great way to finish off my junior career going into senior footy next year I was just really happy - I felt I had a really strong year, one of my better years.” He wanted to thank Rick Bean, Michael Palma and everyone at the Parkmore Football Club and his parents for their support. “All the clubs I’ve been to and been around, the Parkmore culture is definitely the best I’ve been around - with the way they helped me out and have supported me this year,” Perry-Smith said.
IT WAS a Dandy day at South East Juniors grand-final grounds, with two teams from Greater Dandenong winning premierships. Parkmore Pirates’ Premier-2 side - comprising under-16 and under-17 players plundered everything in the Fountain Gate defensive end to boot 13.12 (90) to 1.4 (10). The Pirates held the underdogs goalless until the final term as nothing would best the premiership-claims of the rampaging Parkmore brigade. Pirates’ forwards Jacob Bakes and Harrison Bean booted four goals each in the grand-final victory while captain Perry Lewis-Smith (3 goals) starred for Parkmore to earn an additional medallion as the grand final best-on-ground medallist. “Three flags in five years for these boys with back-to-back flags in under-12 and under-13,” Parkmore president Michael Palma said. “This year they were on top all year - lost their first and only game the last home-andaway round, by two goals to Endeavour Hills then beat them in the semi-final the next week. “It was a great win for the boys and I’m sure the league will put them up into Premier 1 next year and under-17s there will probably only be the two divisions. Palma said the win was a great boon for the Pirates, who are starting to turn the corner results and membership-wise after a few hard years. “Five teams in our own right, one combined with Fountain Gate in under-15s, so to get three teams in the finals - including the girls in their first year - was amazing,” Palma said. “It was a great day for the club and great day for junior football in the area.” In an all-Dandenong under-13 Division-3 grand final, Noble Park managed to knock off its cross-town rivals North Dandenong in a 6.4 (40) to 4.1 (25) thriller. Bulls’ Ilias ‘Road Runner’ Panagiotou received the beston-ground medal. The Bulls had to hold on against the wind as they only kicked one behind after the main break, but their ironclad defence ensured the Sharks could not swim away with the trophy. “For a side that was supposed to finish last or second last, to finish on the ladder and take out a grand final was a good day - pretty happy with that,” Noble Park coach Mick Carlsson said. “We dominated the first half and in the third quarter the boys became complacent but North Dandenong only scored a couple of points, but had the majority of the ball. “It was a bit of a game of wind so to win a grand final and only score one point in the second half was a great effort… good on the boys.” Carlsson also highlighted the performance of his side’s gun girl - Esma Gonullu - who stormed the packs in both finals and was crucial in the Bulls’ win after a dynamite last term. “She runs in the back line and dominated in there,” Carlsson said. “Six contested marks in the third quarter of the first semi and stopped them scoring… she was just as good in the final quarter yesterday. “She can kick it 45 metres already at under-13s and she crashes packs - doesn’t give it up for nobody.” Carlsson wanted to congratulate the umpires on a fantastic performance letting the game run smoothly and also the support of parents, players and everyone around the club as well as the opposition. The under-11s Pirates were the other side from the area in the big finale, but weren’t as lucky in their pursuit of the title, casting a mirror image of the elder Pirates’ result in a 23-point loss to Berwick.

Medals and MOTORING memories By CASEY NEILL
The stunning shape of the all-new Jaguar XE will create plenty of sales.
The beast is set to prowl By EWAN KENNEDY Irene Difesa with her medals. 143721 Picture: GARY SISSONS had rallied to help her get to the games. Support came from her boss at Le Mans Go Karts in Dandenong South, her friends, hair dresser and financial advisor, and Dandenong South Primary School, where she went to school and her son now attends. Ms Difesa has previously competed at the World Games in Sweden and four national games. Penrith in New South Wales will host the next national games and the next international competition will be in Spain. But she’s not sure if she’ll be there. “It was tough leaving my children behind. Right now I’m just happy to be home with my kids,” she said. At age 19, Ms Difesa went
to her GP with fluid retention in her legs and received medication. “But it got to the point where I was struggling to breathe - fluid had got onto my lungs,” she said. Another doctor performed a blood test that found her kidney function at 5 per cent and a biopsy confirmed the autoimmune disease lupus. Ms Difesa endured three years of chemotherapy but it was too late to save her kidneys. She needed a transplant and four hours of dialysis three times a week in the interim. She received one from her mum on 17 January 1998. “The average transplant lasts about 10 years - 17 years later I’m still here,” she said.
Pots and plants workshop GREEN thumbs have got a workout at Uniting AgeWell in Noble Park. About 12 people from the planned activity group, called Scott Club, potted a cherry tomato on Monday 31 August. Uniting AgeWell’s Leanne Bydes said Bunnings Springvale team member Andreja brought along the pots and plants and lent a hand. “Then she revamped all our pots - put new soil and new little plants in, just to spruce it all up,” she said. “It was fantastic. It will be an ongoing thing with Bunnings now,” she said. Ms Bydes said the clients were enthusiastic. “Some of them wanted to do more than one, and they did them for others that weren’t so capable of doing it,” she said. The Scott Club takes its name from the Uniting Church that stood in Scott Street, Dandenong, and ran a similar program. - CASEY NEILL

THE newest Jaguar is overtly sporting in every way. The stunning shape of the all-new Jaguar XE created a huge amount of interest during the drive program in north Queensland to introduction XE to the motoring media. People stopped and stared and some managed to grab photos of the string of Jaguars as we made our way through what passes for peak hour in Cairns and onto Palm Cove for lunch (it’s a tough life!) Jaguar’s distinctive large grille, slim headlights and long bonnet lead back to a coupe-like roofline then down into the sweetest part of the car, the short bootlid with an unobtrusive rear spoiler. The XE’s shape is so right that if Sir William Lyons was still us today he would give it a huge nod of approval. It’s not all about style; the drag coefficient of 0.26 is excellent, due not only to the sleek body, but also the almost completely flat underfloor. Inside, the XE is elegant, with a sporting binnacle directly in front of the driver, a central infotainment screen and subtle ventilation outlets. We particularly like the raised area that runs all they way across the lower area of the windscreen that’s looks for all the world like an extension of the stereo speakers. Rear headroom is marginal for anyone over about 175 cm, a drawback of the coupe-like shape. Legroom will be limited if you’re sitting behind a tall driver who needs their seat well back. Compromises between those in the front and back seats are necessary. About three quarters of the XE’s body is made from aluminium, however the doors are in highstrength steel. We were initially surprised to find the Jaguar XE isn’t a lot lighter than other vehicles in its class - think Audi 4, BMW 4, Mercedes C - until the Jaguar engineers explained the aluminium was used to provide maximum rigidity, not low weight. That rigidity gives the suspension a very stable platform on which to work, thus letting it dampen road shocks to let the small Jag grip hard in corners without sacrificing ride comfort. Cornering is brilliant, with electric power steering that’s arguably the best, most intuitive, we have ever felt. Strong words? Possibly, but try for yourself then judge us. However, driving is marred by thick windscreen pillars that blocked too many times. Comfort is surprisingly good considering the fact that the suspension definitely leans in the direction of sportiness. Jaguar XE in Australia is powered by fourcylinder 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engines in two different stages of tune, producing 147 kW of power and 280 Nm of torque, or 170 kW / 340 Nm, then there’s the supercharged 3.0-litre V6 petrol with 250 kW and an enjoyable 450 Newton metres. Borrowed from the F-Type, the supercharged
Model range 20t Prestige: $60,400 (automatic); 20d Prestige: $62,800 (automatic); 25t Prestige: $64,900 (automatic); 20t R-Sport: $64,400 (automatic); 20d R-Sport: $66,800 (automatic); 25t R-Sport: $68,900 (automatic); 25t Portfolio: $70,400 (automatic); S V6: $104,200 (automatic) .
V6 the XE S is capable of doing the 0-100 km/h acceleration test in just 5.1 seconds. While the XE S sounds pretty good when hammered hard we really would like more volume, please! Those seeking big torque and small consumption can buy an ultra-modern turbo-diesel, again a four-cylinder unit displacing 2.0 litres. All Jaguar XE models imported to Australia drive the rear wheels through a ZF eight-speed automatic transmission. A six-speed manual is sold in some markets but none will be imported to Australia, not even on special order. With superb styling and stunning chassis dynamics the Jaguar XE seems highly likely to steal plenty of sales from the big three German marques, as well as the Japanese Lexus.

IRENE Difesa brought home much more from the recent World Transplant Games than four medals - three gold and one bronze. The Dandenong kidney transplant recipient said she’d trained hard for the success she achieved in Newcastle, England, last month. “But then my medals are so insignificant compared to the people I met and the friendships I made,” she said. “It was an amazing experience. I met some amazing people.” Ms Difesa, 43, battled nausea and dizziness from severe jetlag to take on competitors less than half her age to win gold in her main event, squash. She also took home gold in shot put and discus and claimed bronze in volleyball. About 900 competitors took part in the games while 2500 people watched on and showed their support. “I compete because wherever we go we try to spread the word about organ donation, to thank the donors,” Ms Difesa said. She met a couple with a daughter, 10, and son, 12, who were both born blind. She said the girl needed a kidney transplant and in the process of being tested for compatibility, her father found out he had a tumour. The boy now also needs a transplant. “We were just gobsmacked to find that one family could be burdened with such hardship,” Ms Difesa said. “They weren’t whinging or carrying on. They were smiling, happy to be there. “That was one of the highlights for me. “It was a very grounding and humbling experience.” On 6 April, the Journal reported that the community Ms Difesa has lived in for 34 years
