DANDENONG SHOW
All the drama and details in print THE Dandenong Show and the Dandenong Journal have been inextricably linked for 144 years. The Journal, which was founded in 1865, has reported on every show since the inaugural carnival in 1872. It is hard to imagine the community pride and sense of anticipation that would have surrounded that first show held at the Dandenong Market site on 7 March, 1872. In those days the market site was located in the area bounded by Foster, Thomas, Mason and Walker streets. Families from around the district dressed up in their Sunday best, hooked up their horse and jinker and set off for a day out at the show. The top prize on offer was three pounds for the farmer who turned out the best draught horse. There were 301 entires that first year, including two casks of colonial beer, 42 horses, 40 cattle, 6 sheep, 27 pigs, 16 cheeses, 14 butter, 52 fruit, 8 flowers, 7 honey, 1 egg, 18 poultry, 49 farm produce. Total prize money up for grabs was 24 pounds. However, the year was also tinged with sadness when the society lost its foundation president William Keys, who drowned while trying to rescue cattle in floods at Bangholme. By 1874, the prize money had leapt to 145 pounds, and in 1876 the show had a vice-regal visitor when Victorian Governor Sir G. Bowan attended the carnival. By 1888 the show had become so popular that a new exhibition hall was built. The South Bourke and Morning-

Picture: The Dandenong and District Historical Society the group was a not-for-profit organisation run by a committee of volunteers, goodwill and dedication. “Generations of families from the area have enjoyed the show,“ she said. “We have supported and been supported by the businesses, community groups, services clubs, schools, hospital, Scouts, Victorian Showmen’s Guild, breed societies and volunteers from all avenues.“ “The Journal’s Marg Stork and a
ton Journal, as the Journal was then known, reported that the new building was “substantial, commodious and handsome, situated on an elevated site, commanding an excellent view of the surrounding country and midway between the centre of the township and the railway station. A long-felt want is now supplied by the beautiful building just completed, which undoubtedly has few equals in the colony.“ Dandenong Agricultural and Pastoral Society secretary Lynne Ferris said

photographer could always be seen roaming the showgrounds, interviewing showgirls, woodchoppers, livestock owners, show jumpers, flower arrangers and show patrons,” Mrs Ferris said. Show president Ricky Ferris encouraged everyone to enjoy a day out at the show. “On behalf of the society, I wish to thank all the volunteers, stewards, judges, community groups, stall holders, long-time contractors, Showmen’s
Guild, generous sponsors, exhibitors, and the hard working members of our committee – we would not be able to put on the show without them,” he said. The partnership between the Dandenong Show and the Journal, two of the region’s oldest institutions, will continue this year with the Journal presenting a special stall at the show on Saturday and publishing a comprehensive wrap-up of all the action online and in Monday’s printed edition.

DANDENONG SHOW
New-look home for the kids DANDENONG Show regulars can expect a revamped, free animal nursery this year. In the words of organiser Kate Reedy, the nursery has “entered the 21st century”. The main differences are a more open, renovated home with more pens open for children to hug and cuddle about 40 of their favourite young chickens, ducks, rabbits, sheep, goats, guinea pigs and other farmyard regulars. The attraction for many children is they haven’t handled such animals before. “It’s hands on and 100 per cent free,” Ms Reedy says. Under the same roof will be sheep shearing, Angola goats shows and other demonstations. The regular guess-the-weight of an adult cow competition also returns, with the winner taking home $50. The Reedy family has a fourgeneration association with the show - three of those generations being past show presidents. Kate used to herself enter horses for exhibition, her mother and grandmother submitting pancakes and sponges in the cake sections. She has witnessed many changes at the show over the past 40 years. One has been the lesser emphasis on animals and handcrafts in favour of the “commercialised” rides and showbags. But perhaps this year’s bigger animal nursery will help redress that balance for the remainder of this century.

Crunch time for the best Anzac bickies
Jo-Anne Duggan’s goat Louise shows some personality.
Goats have appeal all of their own Margaret Weightman and John Wells tuck into Anzac biscuits. 144685 Picture: ROB CAREW THE search is on for the best Anzac bikkie at this year’s Dandenong Show. A $200 prize is on offer for the biscuits that take the cake.

On show at Dandenong will be about 50 specimens from breeds such as the AngloNubian - known for their pronounced noses and floppy ears, the white Saanen, the blackand-white striped British Alpine, the hirsute Angoras, and the brown-and-white striped Toggenburgs. There are also two Australian breeds - the Australian-bred black Melaans, and the self-descriptive Australian Brown.

state of their hooves. Most of the show specimens will be females - or does - quite simply, because the bucks tend to stink. Ms Duggan still keeps two British Alpine does Thelma and Louise - named in tribute to the film - though they are too old for show. “People who show goats genuinely love their animals,” Ms Duggan said. “They are also absolute nutters, that’s the truth of it.” This year is the Year of the Goat - but that doesn’t bother Ms Duggan. “I’m a science teacher - I just deal in facts.”

ONCE a goat person, always a goat person. So says self-confessed devotee Jo-Anne Duggan, who heads the goat section at the Dandenong Show. Ms Duggan remains hooked by their large, distinct personalities. “They’re quite personable animals. Cute. Not a high maintenance animal. “And despite popular perceptions, they don’t eat everything.” Since a young age, Ms Duggan has had one or two goats. She says they prefer the company of another goat, and not being chained up by them-

High risk on rail By LACHLAN MOORHEAD THE State Government’s failure to budget for PSOs at Hallam train station during the upcoming 24-hour Homesafe trial will put local commuters and property at risk, according to Opposition Leader Matthew Guy. A Liberal spokesperson said Hallam Station was ranked in the top five stations in metropolitan Melbourne for crimes against property. Under the government’s Homesafe trial, which will launch on 1 January next year, commuters will have access to all-night public transport on weekends. PSOs will be on duty all night at the 78 locations dubbed by the
government as ‘premium stations’. Mr Guy visited Hallam station last week, which is not a premium station, and voiced concern for local commuters who will use the train overnight during the trial. “There needs to be PSO officers when they put on a 24-hour service ... this will endanger people at non-premium stations,” Mr Guy told Star News. “How can you call a policy ‘homesafe’ when you’re taking security off the railway stations?” Mr Guy also voiced concerns for Sandown Park and Yarraman train stations, which a Liberal spokesperson said were in the top 10 for criminal incidents and both non-premium locations.
But the government hit back at the Opposition, with a Labor spokesperson noting that a mobile squad of transit police will patrol all 15 train lines during the Homesafe trial, which includes the non-premium stations Hallam, Sandown Park and Yarraman. The spokesperson said the government consulted carefully with Victoria Police in preparation for the trial. “Homesafe is about getting people home safer and sooner on weekends, whether they’re out for a movie or finishing a shift at work,” the spokesperson said. “The extra funding we have provided means Victoria Police have the resources they need to keep people safe.”

Weeded off road By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS AN APPARENT drug-affected driver who repeatedly veered between lanes and grass verges in peak-time freeway traffic while slapping himself in the face to stay awake has conceded to a court he was lucky to survive. Robert Valotto, 39, pleaded guilty to careless driving and refusing a police-administered drug test at a Dandenong Magistrates’ hearing on 2 November. A witness had observed Valotto driving erratically outbound on Monash Freeway near Notting Hill about 4.45pm on 9 July. As he approached the South
Gippsland Freeway exit, Valotto was seen slapping himself in the face “to wake himself up”, police prosecutor Senior Constable Kimberley Hawkins told the court. Police intercepted Valotto’s car at William Street, Cranbourne. They noted a seemingly “intoxicated or drug affected” Valotto was unsteady on his feet, had bloodshot eyes and was oblivious to his dangerous driving, Sen Const Hawkins said. Valotto told police, at the time, he refused a drug test because he feared he still had “weed” in his system. The accused, who represented himself, told the court he had an
opoid addiction in his twenties and been on a suboxone treatment program in his thirties. He had since replaced suboxone with antidepressants, and believed a combination of the medication with cannabis use had caused side-effects during the incident. He had since “stayed straight” and was seeing a psychologist. During the incident, Valotto ruined his car by scraping it on concrete, he told the court. “I haven’t driven it since I realised it was dangerous.” Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said it was a “wonder” Valotto had driven so far without killing him-

self and others. “I know,” Valotto replied. “I drove from the city to Cranbourne like that.” Mr Vandersteen said Valotto appeared a bright, intelligent person dealt a “poor hand in life early on” and who had not offended in the past five years. “It’s very rare we see someone of your age before the court.” Valotto was convicted, disqualified from driving for two years and fined $750. He was also placed on a 12-month good behaviour bond on the condition he continued his psychological treatment.

Sporting a bandanna for cancer THERE were bandannas aplenty at Mossgiel Park Primary last week. Both students and teachers from the Endeavour Hills school wore bandannas in support of Canteen National Bandanna Day last Friday 30 November. The school raised $1500 in the process, which will go towards the cancer fund-raiser. “Thousands of young people in Australia each year get told the very sad news that they have cancer,” teacher Lyn Pentland said. “The bandanna was chosen as a symbol for this day because sometimes cancer treatments mean people can lose their hair. “During this time, many young people choose to wear a bandanna.” For more information, visit www.canteen.org. au.

CASEY councillor Damien Rosario is proud to say the Doveton Show has people flocking to it from across Melbourne and even had a few suggestions for the Dandenong show. “I spoke to Dandenong mayor Cr Sean O’Reilly about Doveton’s success - I suggested they take a look at the Doveton Show model to grow crowds,” Cr Rosario said. The massive growth of the long-running Doveton Show has Rivergum Ward Cr Rosario feeling as proud as punch. “According to the Doveton Show gate counters 27,277 visitors attended this year’s show, which is an increase of more than 5200 people on last year,” he said. With 102 stalls and free entry into the Myuna Farm grounds Cr Rosario said the show was experiencing big jumps in numbers on all fronts. “More than $14,000 was raised by local sporting clubs and organisations in just one day which is a big achievement and I think the main draw card for the show is the fact it’s free entry,” he said. Cr Rosario said that with entry just a gold coin donation it meant families didn’t have to “break the bank” just to get in. “The Doveton Show is not about making a profit - it’s about the community benefit not about the monetary benefit. “A family from Werribee drove an hour and half to attend this year’s show because the Royal Melbourne Show was just too expensive,” Cr Rosario said. Cr Rosario said the show positively highlights Doveton. “The event shows that Doveton has some real passion and culture behind it, and when we have people who live so far out coming to spend a day in Casey it’s a proud moment.”

POLICE are being called out daily to home invasions in Casey despite months of warnings. Detective Senior Sergeant Rodney Maroney, from Casey CIU, told Star News there were one to two reports a day of aggravated burglaries occurring all over the municipality. The most recent saw a victim come face to face with an intruder inside his Cranbourne home this week. The victim was woken up in the early hours of Monday 2 November when he heard a sound inside his Harry Street house. When he got up to investigate he was confronted by an unknown man who then fled, taking the victim’s iPad, house keys and car keys. The intruder is described as Caucasian, aged in his midtwenties, about 185cm tall, and was wearing a dark beanie, a
shirt, an orange high-visibility vest, dark pants and boots. “It’s typical of your aggravated burglary lately,” Det Sen Sgt Maroney said. “We’re still getting one to two a day where people are breaking into houses through an unlocked garage.” There has been a concerning spate of homes burglaries in Casey this year, in which thieves enter houses, often through unlocked doors while people are asleep, steal keys and use them to make off with the occupant’s car. “It’s a simple thing of making sure the garage door is locked, locking any internal doors, and making sure that the keys aren’t anywhere where they can be found easily,” Det Sen Sgt Maroney said. In August Star News spoke to David Linton, of Berwick, whose 18-year-old daughter, Emma, had her Holden Commodore stolen when thieves entered his house through an
unlocked door and stole the car. The Linton family’s ordeal was just the tip of the iceberg. On 29 July, thieves broke into a Cranbourne North home in Paratea Lane in the middle of the day and took car keys which they used to steal a Kia Sportage. The car was found burnt-out in parkland in Narre Warren two days later. Overnight on 31 July, a 2015 Range Rover Evoque and a 2008 Holden Astra were stolen from a Furness Court property in Berwick, after thieves also broke in and stole the keys. Meanwhile, a Kia sedan was stolen from a Berwick house in Newbury Drive just after 1am on 3 August by thieves who were disturbed by the occupant and still managed to take the car. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential report at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au

CRANBOURNE’S Australian Garden has been lauded on the international stage winning a pretigious award at garden tourism conference in South Korea. The Australian Garden received the International Garden Tourism Network’s Garden Tourism Garden of the Year award for 2016. The 2016 IGTN awards were announced earlier this week at the annual conference of the network held at the Suncheon Bay National Garden in South Korea. Director and chief executive of the Royal Botanic Gardens Victoria, Professor Tim Entwisle welcomed the award and said he was delighted to receive yet another international award for the Australian Garden. “The Australian Garden provides a stunning display of Australian plants in an evoca-

World’s
1990s and the 23rd since stage one opened in 2006. “The awards recognise the architectural, landscape, environmental and business excellence of the Australian Garden and this latest award builds on a number of tourism awards, including the Australian Tourism Award for Best New Tourist Destination received in 2006.“ Prof Entwisle said that the popularity of the Australia Garden as a tourist destination was growing with visitation peaking in 2014/15 at over 160,000 to the Australian Garden and whole-of-site visitation to Cranbourne Gardens exceeding 210,000. “It is only three years since its completion, but this botanical landscape is turning heads and changing attitudes towards growing native plants. It’s still a young garden and over time we can make it an even better one.”

Keysborough lacks much vital infrastructure KEYSBOROUGH’S population has exploded in the past 10 years. Back in October 2012, then-Victorian Planning Minister Matthew Guy called Keysborough one of the largest infill projects undertaken in Melbourne’s south-east corridor. With population growth, comes strain on existing infrastructure. In 2011, without taking into consideration this population growth, the Department of Education closed a number of local public schools. Public transport is also a major issue for the community, with infrequent services and no connection to train stations or the new Dandenong South industrial estates. With the closure of Maralinga Primary School in January this year, Keysborough South Action Group (KSAG) was formed to advocate for additional public school provisioning for the region. As we spoke to residents about the primary school campaign, further infrastructure issues were raised such as the lack of public transport options, community centre facilities, day care and kindergarten. Ten years ago in 2005, the first residents began moving into the new residential estates. The second major boom began in 2010 and since the 2011 Census an additional 2400 households have been constructed.
COMMUNITY
VOICE NINA KELLY
KEYSBOROUGH SOUTH ACTION GROUP SPOKESWOMAN
There are about 1150 school-aged children living in the Keysborough South community. The overall plan was to have the area populated by 2023, however developers like Somerfield are seven years ahead in land sales and are scheduled to be completed by the end of next year. These strong land sales have forced missing infrastructure already in high demand into a critical tipping point for residents. The community banded together and presented a petition with 1084 signatures in June this year, requesting a school be opened for the 2018 school year. We want the school opened in 2018 to allow today’s three-year-old to attend Prep in safe walking distance from their home. As a community, we find it disappointing to say there have been a number of public primary and
secondary school closures in the area within recent years given the significant population growth. This includes the former Keysborough Primary, Maralinga Primary and Coomoora Secondary College. Why do we want a local school? With safety being the number one concern for locals, they want a local state primary school that is within walking distance, so children do not have to cross two major roads - one an arterial road - each with six lanes of traffic to attend school every day. A VicRoads report from 2013 found 33,000 vehicles used the Dandenong Bypass daily. The volume of vehicles is set to increase once the next link of the extension opens next year. KSAG’s advocacy partnership with Greater Dandenong Council has been productive. The council is not responsible for school provisioning and could have walked away. However the council conducted a study in March on behalf of residents, identifying three possible sites for a primary school. In September, the council, KSAG and Department of Education met to discuss the school. We have also met with Shadow Education Minister Nick Wakeling and joined the Our Children Our Schools alliance. Following on from these meetings, a formal presentation as to when the school should be opened will be made to Education Minister James Merlino later this year.
Funding will be determined in next May’s State Budget. KSAG’s second focus is the bus route extension. Keysborough South residents are petitioning for a bus route because there is no public transport within three kilometres and it’s isolating the community. It was an election promise made by a number of parties in last year’s State Election, however we still have no bus. People should have access to essential services. Again, residents have to cross the six-lane arterial the Dandenong Bypass to reach the closest bus stops. For young people and those with disabilities, it’s limiting job opportunities and access to TAFE or university. Our main goals with the petition are to link Keysborough South residents to Mordialloc railway station, the Dandenong rail line, the Dandenong South industrial estate, a new shopping centre on Hutton Road and the Parkmore Shopping Centre. The council has constructed the bus stops and the bus company is ready to go, yet the State Government has not approved funding in this year’s budget. This will be the second petition from the community. The last petition was run by another community group. Find KSAG on Facebook, at a council forum at Springers Leisure Centre on Wednesday 11 November or at a bus forum on Wednesday 18 November at a venue to be confirmed.
LOOKING BACK pleased to receive reliable information regarding others who have enlisted with a view to adding further names to the Roll of Honour. 50 years ago 3 November, 1965 The audience did not help either The obvious lack of people at the opening night of the ‘Curious Savage’ by John Patrick, at the Mechanics Institute, Frankston, last week made it difficult for members of the Frankston Group to overcome their first night nerves. Unfortunately, the people who attended did little to help the
cast ease into their exacting roles. Somehow a little boy, whose enthusiasm for the visual aspects of the theatre got the better of him, became entangled in one of the exit curtains, and started to slowly rotate, the finished product resembled a Christmas bon bon much to the annoyance of the cast members. 20 years ago 6 November, 1995 Opera singer opens studio Cheryl MacDonald, daughter of the former Dandenong Mayor and Mayoress Ian and Pat MacDonald, who
has enjoyed a successful career as an operatic lyric coloratura soprano has opened her own voice studio in Frankston. Cheryl’s beautiful voice has been heard at many Dandenong Mayoral functions and Mayoress’s receptions over the years. Cheryl has now completed her Associate Diploma of Arts in Opera and Music Theatre, graduating with distinctions in every subject. 5 years ago 1 November, 2010 Tour spices up our city In the past three years, more than
1000 people have explored Dandenong by taking part in a cultural tour. The tours began in 2006 with the launch of a Little India Tour by Greater Dandenong Council. From there they have grown to include four tours highlighting everything from the Afghan precinct, Little India, the region’s delis and groceries and the rich array of cuisines on offer. We are introducing participants to new areas, and new cultures. It really opens people’s eyes to what we have here in Dandenong. Compiled by Dandenong and District Historical Society

A stitch of honour IT’S more than a quilt. In one photo two young Australian veterans who served together in Afghanistan embrace each other, a multi-coloured quilt draped over their shoulders in a symbol of brotherhood. One of the veterans pictured is Chris May from Berwick, while the quilt was donated by the Quilts of Valour Australia. Chris is currently heading up the Young Veterans convoy, in which three ex-military Land Rovers have been driven from the Australian mainland’s southernmost point at Wilson’s Promontory over the High Country to Cooktown, the northernmost tip of Queensland, where the group is now. Chris and his companions have taken quilts donated by the Quilts of Valour which they are passing on to other veterans throughout Australia’s east coast, as well as speaking to those affected by war. Harkaway’s Helen Comport is one of the driving forces behind Quilt of Valour Australia and it was her idea for Chris and his team to take the quilts with them when they set off on their adventure. Helen was at a Berwick Rotary presentation recently where Chris’ brother, Scott, also an Afghanistan veteran, spoke to guests about posttraumatic stress and his brother’s upcoming journey. It was then that Helen saw an opportunity. “I heard from his (Scott’s) talk that they were doing this journey to Victoria up to the top of Queensland,” she said. “I asked if they’d like to take some quilts because they were going
to be meeting up with young veterans who were struggling. “I gave him a couple of big bags of quilts and then he said he could use more, so when I went up to Brisbane recently I took an extra suitcase.” At the rotary presentation Helen presented quilts to Berwick RSL president Ray Heathcote, Dandenong/Cranbourne RSL president John Wells and the May brothers. As Helen puts it, the quilts are a way for returned veterans to be reminded they’re not alone and that their service is enormously appreciated. “My dream was that we could wrap all the veterans in our love for their sacrifice, no-one goes to war and escapes all the horror,” Helen said earlier this year. “From the responses I’ve got, every veteran, it’s actually brought them to tears to think anyone would put hours and hours in to something so beautiful.” Helen has her own reason for reaching out to veterans. One of her four sons was also serving in Afghanistan when he was badly injured in conflict and airlifted to Landstuhl Regional Medical Centre in Germany - the largest military hospital outside the US. While in hospital, her son made a discovery that would shape Helen’s life, kick-starting a passion that she has been heavily involved with ever since. “When my son was in Germany, because he’s in this sterile ICU, he saw this coloured blanket or rug. He didn’t know what it was,” Helen, also a member of Berwick Inner Wheel, recalled. “And he asked if he could have that on his bed. And they said, of course.”

The quilt Helen speaks of was delivered to her son through the Quilts of Valor association in America, which organises for the quilts to be sent to soldiers injured in war as a reminder that their service and bravery will never be forgotten. Through consultation with the Victorian Quilters’ Guild and the Berwick RSL Sub-branch, Quilts of Valour Australia was born in 2012, created by Helen and aided by con-
tributors throughout the country. Three years since starting up the Australian group, the Quilts of Valour has given out more than 500 quilts around the country.

Team to tackle crime By LACHLAN MOORHEAD
“We can make more of a stand, when we come together with other people we have a bigger voice,” she said. “This is not just a council problem, it’s not just a police problem, and it’s not just a community services problem - this is everybody.” The series of ward forums have included several keynote speakers, including Casey Police Inspector Paul Breen, and Youth Support Advocacy Service (YSAS) director Peter Wearne. Casey has recorded some of the highest Local Government statistics for family violence incidents. “I’m going to start going around to the wards and to all the community and start saying, well what are you guys doing about this?” Insp Breen said at the first forum. “Because at some stage, if it continues, it’s going to touch you. “At some stage you’re going to know someone, (maybe someone) very close to you, that’s going to be harmed by this behaviour.” The final forum is for the Balla Balla Ward and will take place on 2 December. For more information contact Casey Council on 9705 5200.
CASEY Council is looking to set up a public safety committee specialising in crime prevention. Cr Louise Berkelmans will pitch the idea for the new advisory committee when she puts forward a notice of motion at the council meeting on Thursday 5 November. Cr Berkelmans said a Public Safety Advisory Committee would potentially include representatives from council, police, religious institutions and charities, who would work together to look at curbing crime in Casey, as well as providing better care for victims. The notice of motion comes on the back of the Casey ward forums, in which residents from every ward have been invited to meetings with councillors, police officers and specialists. “We need to have professional people on the committee who are involved with prevention, early prevention, people who are caring for victims of crime,” Cr Berkelmans told Star News ahead of Thursday’s council meeting. “These kinds of people can be a steering committee to guide the council in what things can be put in place to curb crime in Casey.” She said a team approach would allow for a “bigger voice”.
Casey Police Inspector Paul Breen convened the first of the ward forums earlier this year.
Casey councillor Louise Berkelmans is calling for a Public Safety Advisory Committee to be set up.
Cops tee up for charity CASEY police will be hitting the greens next week. Next Friday 13 November is the Endeavour Hills Police Charity Golf day at Churchill Park Golf Club, an annual event in support of charity where the community is encouraged to get involved and do their bit. The golf day has been running for several years and continues to

grow ever since it was started up in 2008. The Endeavour Hills police station was opened in November 2004 by Senior Sergeant Mike Jenkins, who was coming off an 18-year stint at Oakleigh. For more information, contact the golf club on 9700 4445.
Teen steps off bus, is robbed at knifepoint A TEENAGER has been jumped and robbed at knifepoint by two attackers in the middle of the afternoon as he walked home from Endeavour Hills Shopping Centre. The 17-year-old victim had just stepped off a bus at the shopping centre and was walking along Mossgiel Park Drive when he was set upon by two men who demanded his cash. Both men spat on the victim several times before one of the attackers pulled out a flick knife and demanded the victim’s phone, which he handed over. The two attackers then fled north along Mossgiel Park Drive. The first attacker is described as 150cm tall, Caucasian, was wearing a black and white hat, a black T-shirt, grey pants, had black hair and was slim. The second attacker is described as 150cm tall, dark-skinned, was wearing a black hat, shorts and a red or pink T-shirt. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or make a confidential report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au

Friendship is the key THE community and Doveton - two of the most important things to Juan Carlos Loyola. For more than two decades, Carlos, as he is regularly known, has dedicated his time and heart to the disabled community, most of which has been as the director of the Doveton Special Soccer School, which opened in 1993. The soccer school held its 12th annual Friendship Day on Friday 6 November, in which more than 100 children and adults with disabilities participated in a series of soccer games, with all of them awarded medals for their involvement. Carlos opened up the competition this year to adults from support groups including Wallara, Blairlogie, Frankston SDS and The Bridge, following community consultation. The friendship day opening ceremony and march began around 10am, after which the soccer competitions were held and then the special medal presentation.

THE NBN will be rolled out over most of Casey by the end of 2017. NBN Co recently released its three-year construction plan, with lots of Casey suburbs on the list. One of the first areas scheduled for the NBN is Endeavour Hills, which has been put down to receive the rollout in the first half of 2016. Cranbourne North, Narre Warren, and Narre Warren South are listed for the second half of 2016. Berwick, Blind Bight, Can-
nons Creek, Tooradin and Warneet are scheduled for the fourth quarter of 2016. Meanwhile, a number of suburbs are on the list to be hooked up in 2017, including Hampton Park, Lynbrook, Lyndhurst, Botanic Ridge, Clyde, Cranbourne, Cranbourne East, Cranbourne West, Devon Meadows, and Pearcedale. Doveton, Eumemmerring, Hallam, Lysterfield South, and Narre Warren North are scheduled for the second half of 2017. In March, Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull visited Casey in his capacity as Federal Communications Minister
to announce that Narre Warren South had been added to the rollout list. Mr Turnbull came to the Casey Central Shopping Centre to confirm the long-awaited development, which will see work on Narre Warren South’s NBN begin in the second half of 2016. It was then he also met Steve Barnes, a Narre Warren South resident and passionate NBN campaigner. Mr Barnes, an IT worker, operates from home and has been advocating for a better internet service in his suburb for 12 years.

DEVELOPMENT UPDATE The initial Kestle Park release off Crole Drive Waterford Rise is well under construction with more than half the lots sold and the stage expected to be completed by Christmas with titles to issue in February 2016.

The next stage release will be adjacent to the original Display Village and incorporate the completion of Kestle Park with paths, BBQ’s, shelter and a half-basketball court by mid to late next year.

IF they gave out points for enthusiasm and dedication then Zed Nasheet of LJ Hooker, Hampton Park, would be an 11 out of 10. The 25-year-old real estate agent is quickly building a niche for himself in his chosen profession with an innovative approach to marketing which is drawing attention and not just around Melbourne. Describing himself as a “24-hour agent” never off the clock who’s passion and whose hobby is real estate, Zed has been an agent for almost seven years. In recent times his innovative marketing style has been featured on the Channel 7 news and Channel 9s “A Current Affairs”. He has found his point of difference in the market - video. “Yes, property video had ‘been done’ before, but not like this,” he said of his funny but inclusive mini-films aimed at showing not just the homes inclusively but their locations and potential lifestyles. “Stepping in front of the camera pushed me to step outside my comfort zone and I quickly learnt that it was very natural for me,” Zed said.
“In no time my videos took me to become a household name within my community and most recently across the country. “Real estate is my career, my hobby and my life. The competitive nature of this industry and the adrenalin when negotiating lifechanging deals is what I thrive on. I am always looking ahead at the next step in my life, and combining my passion for real estate and love for being in front of the camera is the next chapter.” He said while the videos are a lot of fun, they are also great tool for selling properties interstate and overseas because they “showed” the real house better than a static photo ever could. Find Zed Nasheet and the team at shop 20, Hampton Park Shopping Centre, or call on 9702 8388.

Caring for the carers By GEORGIA WESTGARTH PRIMARY family care givers in the south east were given an afternoon of respite and a chance to redefine their role by Carers Victoria. The mingle was attended by about 120 carers at Amberlee Receptions in Cranbourne on Wednesday and highlighted the selfless nature of family carers. Chief executive of Carers Victoria and former nurse Caroline Mulcahy said the mingle events held across Victoria give carers the opportunity to “take some time out, eat and talk to one another”. “They can get tips from each other and reflect on themselves because they tend not to look after themselves, it’s always others,” she said. Ms Mulcahy said family carers often don't think of themselves as a carer but just as a mum, dad or a sibling. “I really wanted to emphasise that they are a carer because they do it out of love for their family member and they forget.” Carers' dwindling health was also a topic of the day. “In an Australian Unity report, carers were found to have the lowest health and wellbeing index ever researched, even worse than prisoners,” Ms Mulcahy said. “Often they can’t leave their family member even to go to the dentist and they don’t actually look after themselves at all.” Parliamentary Secretary for Carers and Volunteers and Dandenong MP Gabrielle Williams also attended along with Federal MP for Holt Anthony Byrne. They both expressed their support and recognition of the work done by unpaid family carers at the free event. Carer and Cranbourne mother of
Denise Curran, Caroline Mulcahy, Lynne Buckingham, MP Gabrielle Williams, Heather Ebden and Jenny Williams celebrating the work of unpaid family carers. 145971 three Michelle Cullum voiced her empathy. “I think people don’t realise how emotionally draining caring for a family member is and coming here today I feel for other carers,” she said. Ms Cullum’s daughter was diagnosed with bipolar disorder last year and has since found a medication that works. “In the past she has been so nasty, violent and suicidal - she also hears voices and self-harms,” Ms Cullum said. Ms Cullum said counselling had helped her cope with the stress and worry. “It’s a relief to just blurt it all to them - I definitely needed one a long time ago.”

Michelle Cullum cares for her daughter who suffers from bipolar disorder and attended the event for the first time. 145971
She said she had also suffered from depression and that the stress of caring had made heightened her concerns. “I sit in bed just waiting for that aw-
ful phone call from the police that something has happened,” she said. But she said had found the event very helpful and was able to learn things from the other carers on her table.
Free bowel screening ignored FREE preventative bowel cancer screens sent out to homes in Casey are not being used. A recent study by the Cancer Council Victoria found 32 per cent of eligible Casey residents took the bowl screen, pinning Casey among the lowest-screeners in Victoria. Statistics for the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program found Casey along with Frankston, Hume, Melton and Melbourne to have the lowest rate of participation. Cancer Council Victoria Chief Executive, Todd Harper, said the low numbers in Casey are concerning- “particularly given bowel cancer is the second-biggest cancer killer of Victorians.” “Many people are literally throwing these free, non-intrusive and effective bowel screening kits in the ‘too hard basket’,” Mr Harper said. The faecal occult blood test (FOBT) kit mailed to residents aged 50 to 65 has been tested to pick up 83 per cent of bowel cancer cases in the first round of screening.

Fresh fish siblings are the catch of the day By CASEY NEILL A BROTHER and sister duo hopes a Victorian retail first will net new customers at Dandenong Market. Third generation fishmongers Dimitri and Adriana Ganotis have opened Hellenic Seafood, specialising in fresh, whole Australian fish. They’ll have everything from fourkilogram snappers and salmon down to sardines and silver whiting. And they’ll be on show in large granite ice wells - the first retail outlet in Victoria to do so. “They’re like the ones that are in the Sydney fish market,” Adriana said.
“Everything’s nice and open and everything’s on ice. “Visually it’s a lot more appealing. “It’s a little bit more interactive with the customers. “We wanted a point of difference and something that looked a bit more traditional.” Adriana said fresh fillets cut in-store, King Island crayfish, Queensland prawns and oysters shucked in-store would also be on offer. “Nothing’s frozen. Everything comes fresh to us,” she said. “A lot of it is sustainably sourced as well. We try to get the highest
quality we can. “It’s something we’ve got a bit of a reputation for.” That reputation comes from family business O’Psaras on Portman in Oakleigh. “We worked together at the Oakleigh store as well, but it will be the first time we’ve worked together full time,” Adriana said of starting the stall with Dimitri. “We argue a lot. We’ll see how that goes! “He just finished up high school and I just finished up my uni degree. “Mum and dad will be around on the weekends, as well.
“There is a saying that we Greeks have salty blood due to our love of the sea and the bounty it offers, and I can certainly say that’s true for myself and my family.” The Greek seaside-village themed stall features decking floors to make visitors feel like they’ve stepped onto a pier and oyster shell tiles and sparkling glass to represent the Mediterranean Sea. Adriana said she was excited to welcome Dandenong Market. “It’s got some atmosphere and culture to it that we really love,” she said. The stall joins Schwarze Seafood and Marmara Seafood in the meat, fish and deli hall.
L O N G - D I S TA N C E swimmer Tammy Van Wisse will be the guest speaker at the next Premier Regional Business Awards breakfast. The 25 November Greater Dandenong Chamber of Commerce event will be the last one before a gala celebration of the awards’ 25th and final year in March. In 1996 Tammy became the first person to swim Bass Strait, has set record times around the world.w This year’s breakfasts are profiling previous award winners and rising stars from the region.
Industrial infill site AUSTLANDER Developments has paid $5.69 million for an infill site in Keysborough with plans for an industrial estate in its sights. The 5.66 hectare allotment at 241 Perry Road is zoned Industrial 1 and adjoins the Key Industrial Park. Savills Australia brokered the deal and senior executive Paul Jones said Austlander would seek to subdivide the land into 29 lots of 1000 square metres and two of 7000 square metres.
Trade ties could benefit business, says young achiever KEYSBOROUGH’S Kalyan Ky says free trade between Cambodia and Australia would boost Greater Dandenong business. The Greater Dandenong 2011 Young Achiever of the Year is the Cambodia Australia Chamber of Commerce, Innovation and Industry president (CACCII). The Cambodian Prime Minister’s son Hun Manet was in Australia with a delegation from 16 to 19 October. Ms Ky organised for them to meet International Adviser to the Office of the Prime Minister Lynette Wood, and Richard Colbeck, the Tourism and International Education Minister
and the Minister assisting the Minister for Trade and Investment. She said both parties committed to continued discussions to strengthen ties, and spoke about a free trade agreement, the prospect of a working holiday visa and increased scholarship numbers. Ms Ky said Cambodia could benefit from Australia’s technological expertise and that Greater Dandenong housed manufacturing businesses that produced industrial equipment, agribusiness equipment, food production and packaging technology. “All of which can be used to ex-
port Cambodian produce - in particular, live seafood - to Australia,” she said. Ms Ky said Australian companies could play a major role in Cambodia’s development. She said that with investment would come technological advances, skills and expertise, and strong corporate governance. “They can help build individuals, create jobs - which in turn alleviates poverty - and serve commercial interests,” she said. “These are the benefits of free trade.”

Child porn charges By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A MAN is fighting child pornography offences over images of baby girls in nappies that were found on his i-Phone. Police prosecutor Senior Constable Aimee Ryland told Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 2 November that the images had been uploaded from a ‘synched photos’ album within the man’s Facebook account. She said the accused had denied knowing about the images, blaming either the man’s nine-year-old son or a “vindictive ex-partner”.
Neither of those parties had yet made a statement to police, the court was told. Defence lawyer Bernard Keating said the man had told Greater Dandenong police’s Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team he was receiving notifications that his son was using his phone and Facebook account. Mr Keating also raised doubts whether the images were child porn. He said the subjects, due to their youth, had a cognitive inability to portray themselves in a sexualised manner. He paraphrased a US Supreme Court
statement on the theme that it was difficult to define but “I know it when I see it”. “It’s in the eye of the beholder.” Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said his preliminary view was at least five of the images sexualised the subjects - through they were wearing nappies. One of the photos for example lacked “prior innocence”. “She’s on the floor of a lounge room with a heater in the background.” Mr Vandersteen said the other images should be viewed not in isolation, but as a collection of similar images of similarly
aged female babies. He said the general community would find objection with the images. “It’s open for a magistrate to conclude that (it’s pornography). “It’s unusual you see children in these poses.” Mr Vandersteen said he had not yet been provided details on when or how the images were uploaded onto the phone. The matter was adjourned for further mention at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 2 December.
Ramesh walks for a cure By LACHLAN MOORHEAD ASKED what the favourite memory of his late uncle was, Ramesh doesn’t hesitate. “Every day was the happiest day with him,” the Cranbourne resident said. Ramesh Bector lost his uncle, Shaun, to cancer in 2013, while his best friend Karen also died from the disease in 2012. It stands to reason that Ramesh didn’t hesitate in signing up for next month’s Cranbourne Narre Relay for Life at Casey Fields, in memory of those he’s lost. “It was a big loss,” Ramesh said. “I was depressed, I couldn’t get over that I lost my uncle - he raised me. “We were very close me and my uncle, playing soccer, cricket, spending time together, and going on holidays. “There was a strong bond between us. “Seeing him lose his fight against cancer was painful.” When he takes part in this year’s relay, Ramesh will have Shaun and Karen in his hearts. This is his first time participating in the event.
Last year he watched the relay and was incredibly moved by the initiative. “I looked at the thousands of people and thought why not me?” he said. “I don’t have to be a cancer patient to take part.” Last year $121,880 was raised at the Cranbourne Narre Relay For Life. “I hope my story will encourage others to get involved and support Relay for Life to find a cure for all forms of cancer,” Ramesh said. The relay will take place at the Athletics Track at Casey Fields on 7and 8 November. Event co-ordinator Brooke Walford said the relay was an opportunity for local residents to “band together”. “Celebrating cancer survivors, remembering loved ones lost and fighting back against cancer - we’re encouraging everyone - whether they were involved last year or not - to sign up for this moving community event,” Ms Walford said. To join the Cranbourne Narre Relay For Life event, contact 1300 65 65 85, or visit www.relayforlife.org.au.
Thieves caught in the traffic ENDEAVOUR Hills police arrested two women after they were caught in a stolen car this week. The car appeared broken down on Fullard Road in Narre Warren, about 1pm on Monday 2 November, but when police approached it the driver took off. The police then caught up to the car after the driver got caught in traffic and two women were arrested and interviewed at the scene.
Robbed, assaulted
Ramesh Bector - here with his daughter, Charli, and wife, Kristy - will be participating in next month’s Cranbourne Narre Relay for Life.
A DIABETIC teenager was assaulted and had his blood sugar monitor stolen when he was walking home from a Cranbourne McDonald’s with his friend. The victims, 17 and 19, were walking home along Parnell Court just before midnight on Sunday 1 November when approached by three men. One of the attackers punched one of the teenagers twice in the face, who fell to the ground. The attackers then stole the teenager’s backpack with his sugar monitor inside.

Art across the ages THE Berwick Artists Society has been busy preparing its Art Across The Ages exhibition, which will run from Friday 6 to Sunday 8 November in conjunction with Fleetwood Primary School at the school premises. Star News photographer STEWART CHAMBERS stopped by the Old Cheese factory last Thursday where the members of the Berwick Artists Society practice their art every week. The upcoming exhibition will include art by members of the Berwick Artists Society and students from Fleetwood Primary, as well as artists throughout Australia, from professionals to amateurs. They have been inspired by a range of subjects using a variety of mediums.

Victims’ rights explored at forum A FORUM that will inform victims of crime about their rights and available support services will be held in Dandenong. The event on 10 November, which is open to the public, includes the premiere screening of a short film telling the stories of five families who lost loved ones to crime. Service providers such as the Department of Justice and Regulation, Victoria Police and the Magistrates’ Court will make presentations. Department of Justice and Regulation Victims Support Agency director Clare Morton said becoming a victim of crime was often confronting. “Most people have little experience of the criminal justice and court systems, and navigating them when also dealing with the impact of a crime can be very daunting. “This forum will help improve understanding of how the justice system works.“ Other attendees include representatives from the Victims of Crime Assistance Tribunal, Victims Assistance Program, Department of Justice and Regulation Victims Support Agency and Office of Public Prosecutions Witness Assistance Service.

Boxing on for their lives By CASEY NEILL TEACHING the downtrodden how to box seems a strange choice - until Adam Kaoullas explains the value to the individuals and society. He’s lending a hand at The Big Issue Community Street Soccer program in Dandenong in the name of self-defence, fitness and boosting selfesteem. “The feeling you get from exercise is amazing,” he said. “It makes people feel so good. It makes you healthier. “It’s a big identity and belonging thing. It gives them a place to go.” Mr Kaoullas said boxing provided an outlet that could steer people away from less constructive activities, like taking recreational drugs. He has been boxing since a young age and turned to volunteering, first with youth workers at Moorabbin Boxing Gym, after an exchange trip to the US. “I felt like I needed to give something back to the community,” he said. “I started working at a clinic for individuals with disabilities. “The feeling that I got when they were improving, saying thank you at the end, it was like no other. “The amount of joy I get from
helping out and from their appreciation is amazing. “These people have been through so much but still have such a great attitude to training.” Stuart McGown brought the Community Street Soccer program to Dandenong in June 2008. “We have 25 to 35 people each week and we target those who are marginalised and disadvantaged in the community and use sport as a catalyst to promote positive change,” he said. “To get Adam to come out here and give up his own time and see the smiles on people’s faces was a real credit to him. “We’re really pleased to have him on board.” Mr McGown said soccer players had represented Australia at the Homeless World Cup in Milan, Paris and Poland. The program welcomes people aged 16 and above from different walks of life, from refugee backgrounds to mental health service referrals and the homeless. Mr McGown said participants experienced improved fitness and social connectedness. “It’s about having a safe place every week to come along and have some fun,” he said.
Adam Kaoullas leads a boxing drill. 144913 “Every week we seem to sign up new players.” There are clinics in different sports and guest speakers talk about health issues. “We also invite different organisations and agencies to have tournaments

with us,” Mr McGown said. “We’ve had the fire service, family justice, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court, Ermha ... “They get to meet people they wouldn’t normally meet and it breaks down the barriers.
“As soon as they cross that white line it doesn’t matter who they are.” The Big Issue Community Street Soccer program runs at JC Mills Reserve from 4pm to 6pm every Wednesday.

ALL things Indian will descend on Dandenong Market during Diwali celebrations. Springvale Community Aid and Advice Bureau (SCAAB) is partnering with the market to present free entertainment from 11.30am to 3pm on Sunday 15 November. Visitors can enjoy a traditional sword dancing performance, a Rangoli artist, festive face painting for kids, turban tying and henna hand art. Bollydazzlers will dress in dazzling Bollywood costumes and perform to Indian music. Bhavesh Mahant from Curry and Chaat Corner will join Chef Russell Bald in The Kitchen to share insights into festive cooking.
All Diwali activities and performances are free and will take place in Market Square. Sundays at the Market include free parking. Diwali, also known as Deepavali, means ‘a row or series of lights’ and is a time for reflecting, cleansing and celebrating the victory of light over darkness. A Hindu legend traces Diwali to Lord Rama, a descendant of the Hindu God Vishnu, who returned to his kingdom following 14 years in exile and won a battle against a demon king. The story told of how people lit up their houses to celebrate his victory.

Backroom girls and boys By JARROD POTTER WHILE speccies and goals bring the crowds, it’s the hard work away from the field that ensures local football keeps on going. Chris Swinburne personifies that hard work off the ground to help keep Dandenong based St John’s Old Collegians Football Club ticking along. She has toiled for the club across the last seven years and never asked for so much as a pat on the back, let alone winning the AFL’s 2015 Victorian Volunteer of the Year. But her tireless work behind the scenes - working as club secretary, treasurer and a general committee member among countless other non-official roles since 2008 - were not overlooked. Swinburne could hardly believe she won the award after a few boys at the club made sure her name was one of the nominees. She was whisked away to the city for a three-day experience across the AFL Grand Final weekend last month - culminating in receiving her award on that illustrious Saturday before watching Hawthorn claim its third premiership in a row. “The whole three days were brilliant,” Swinburne said. “It’s really hard to put it into words - it’s fantastic and such an honour - it really is and I just don’t
know how to describe. “It certainly makes me feel appreciated which is always nice.” She loves watching the JOCs run out in the Victorian Amateur Football Association, especially her son Glenn Costas, and seeing his recent success winning a flag and representing the association has been her fondest football highlights. “They’ve done pretty well, but on the other hand we’ve had quite a few lows there as well,” Swinburne said. “For me personally it was winning the 2011 premiership and in 2013 my son Glenn went over to Ireland to play Gaelic football and went over there with the VAFA, so I went over with my husband to watch him play that.” It’s all about helping St John’s get on the park each week for Swinburne and she hoped more people would get into the canteens, join committees and generally become a greater part of their own clubs to help the local game flourish. “I definitely always wanted to be involved - footy clubs need volunteers and we need a lot more,” Swinburne said. “I did it just to help the club out in generally, that’s what it is about - just helping the club and helping those boys get out there on the ground. “That’s what you do it for ... to help the boys.”

Win points to promising future for Caleb IT does not sound like much, but for Caleb Boland picking up his first ATP point meant the world to him. The literal world as Boland, 17, from Lysterfield, is now on the ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) world rankings list with his high-ranking match victory earlier this year. By knocking off Brandon Walkin earlier this year at the Australia F3 tournament in Mildura - 2-6, 6-1 and 7-6 in a back-and-forth final set tiebreaker - Boland picked up the elusive first ATP point and earned his place among the world’s best. The first round victory gave Boland the right to call himself an ATP
ranked player - currently 1756 in the world - a difficult achievement for most junior male tennis players to accomplish. “It feels really good - not many people my age have an ATP ranking, so I was ecstatic to get that ATP point,” Boland said. “Got a wild card into the main draw and I played a really high ranked player (Walkin) and I beat him and that got me into the second round, but I lost to a very good player (Thomas Fancutt). “It was a really big tournament - the ITF Futures event in Mildura about five or six months ago when I just turned 17 - and to get it in Australia as well I was really proud of myself.”
While 1756 might be on the foothills of the ATP rankings charts and a long way to go to even take a couple of hundred spots off, Boland was thrilled to make his mark and take that first step in the senior ranks. His summer season ambitions are ambitious, but Boland thinks his drive and motivation will serve him well as he hopes a top 1000 ranking looms in his immediate future. “I’m really aiming towards top 1000 ATP - to get that ranking I’ll have to win a lot of main draw matches while travelling, so it’s going to be pretty difficult but that’s my aim,” Boland said. “Would have to get through a lot of qualifying and stuff ... I’d have to win 10 more (ATP
ranked) matches to get to top 1000.” To fuel his tennis ambitions, Boland has made the tough decision to start home schooling so he can focus more on his tennis. He believes, especially with a crucial few years ahead, it gives him the best shot at smashing his way towards a professional tennis career. He’s already bounced about a fair bit already with his calendar featuring Alice Springs, Cairns, Brisbane, Toowoomba and Wollongong this spring. His next challenge - the 18 and under nationals - would open another door for the powerhouse junior: a ticket into the Australian Open qualifying draw.
After earning his first ATP point, Caleb Boland now has a worldwide tennis Picture: JARROD POTTER ranking. 144594

Stingrays’ new academy spoilt for choices By JARROD POTTER A TALENTED, tall and skilful Dandenong Stingrays Youth Girls Academy is set to take on all challengers in 2015/16. Stingrays YGA coach Scott Gowans could not be prouder of the 50-strong contingent ready to hone their skills ahead of next year’s competition. The Stingrays will hit the ground running in their second season as an affiliated academy and it shows how far south-east girls football has reached in recent years as Gowans couldn’t find room for every talented player who attended the trials. “We’re very strong - it’s a really strong group and there are 17 new girls in the 34 (on the mainlist) which is really positive,” Gowans said. “There were five or six girls that won club best-and-fairests that didn’t even make the 50, so the talent is massive. “It’s a great position to be in - it’s hard to put a percentage on it but I reckon it’s gone up 3040 per cent on last year ... it surprised me to be honest.” Picking up where they left off after claiming a third consecutive South East Juniors Youth Girls premiership, Beaconsfield midfielders Georgia Gee, Tyla Hanks and Brooke Struulyart are part of the 34-player main list. Also featuring from the South East Juniors competition are Schoolgirls All Australians Courtney Jones and Emily Browning as well as Victorian representative Logan O’Connell-Webb and Parkmore duo Teagan Sheldon and Karina Diaz.

The tall timber is set to cause headaches in the Youth Girls landscape, especially with dualsportswoman Emily Rylance balancing life between football and basketball in this upcoming 12 months. Gowans thinks Rylance has what it takes to not only represent the state in the upcoming year or so, but to also don an AFL jumper when the time comes. “We’ve got five girls over 180cm and one of them is 188cm - Emily Rylance - so that will be very exciting,” Gowans said. “Potentially with her height and ability, she’s draftable in another 14-15 months. “She’s also got a basketball scholarship, so we’ll go easy on her training commitments and get her to academy games and even state level.” The try-outs were so popular and laden with skilful potential Stingrays, Gowans and his coaching group felt it was necessary to include a rookie list, headed by Victorian representative Georgia Gourlay, who is recovering from a longterm knee injury. “Because the talent was so big this year we’ve gone for 16 rookies instead of 10, which is great, so that game will be to try out the rookies and the young girls in the squad,” Gowans said. “We’ve taken some of the girls from last year like Samara Hazelden, Cassie Rowe - they’re 17 but the list is so strong, that we thought it wouldn’t be really fair to say no to them. “We’ll be able to work through that with them, develop them and get them back in for their top age year next year.”
CELEBRATING its golden anniversary, the Sandown Racecourse is set to shine on Saturday 14 November as the best in the business cap off the Spring Racing Carnival in style. Spring racing won’t be the only reason to get down to the Springvale-based horse-racing track - now named William Hill Park - as the Melbourne Racing Club (MRC) will pop the champagne in honour of a memorable 50 years at the course. Sandown has been popular since its inaugural race meet on 19 June 1965, as 52,379 people welcomed the fourth Melbourne metropolitan racecourse to the greater racing community. The Journal reported at the time the 3.5 million pound course was “the culmination of some 17 years intensive planning, the result of which has meant a completely ’new deal’ for racing patrons with refinements such as totalisator windows in the concourse bars atop the grandstand, which have an uninterrupted view of the track”.
With 11 winter race meets relocated on account of extensive track-works over the time-frame of the actual anniversary, the course will instead celebrate its 50th birthday at the upcoming Spring Carnival Race Day. Topping the form guide are the mustwatch Group 2 races, the Zipping Classic and the Sandown Guineas, which will run alongside the Sandown Cup before the crowning of the Spring Champion Jockey and Trainer. Renamed to honour the champion stayer that picked up four crowns consecutively from 2007-10, the Zipping Classic 2400m was picked up by Au Revoir last year ahead of Epingle and this year’s Melbourne Cup winner Prince of Penzance. The Spring Carnival Race Day will feature nine races across the day and include family friendly activities with MRC mascot Clip Clop, from noon to 4pm at the Front Lawn.

The GLE Coupe stands out from the Mercedes-Benz large SUV range. the standard equipment across the range, the GLE 450 AMG 4Matic Coupe also wears a panoramic sliding sunroof, AMG Line Nappa leather upholstery, 22-inch AMG Wheels, Active Curve System with anti-roll stabilisation and an Anti-Theft Protection package. The top of the range Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S 4MATIC Coupe benefits from the Mercedes-AMG ‘One man, One Engine’ philosophy, the stonking 5.5-litre V8 motor being put together by a single highly-trained technician. The result is that the GLE 63 S Coupe comes up with 430kW and 760Nm, which in conjunction with the AMG Speedshift Plus 7G-Tronic transmission, has the vehicle shooting from zero to 100 km/h in just 4.2 seconds. A list of standard equipment includes AMG Driver’s Package, AMG Performance Exhaust, Air-Balance Package, digital TV tuner, luxury heated and ventilated multi-contour front seats in AMG Nappa leather. Ground-breaking powertrain apart, the newly designed Airmatic air suspension - available for the first time with the continuously variable damping system ADS Plus - ensures exceptionally stable driving. The damping system realigns itself depending on the driver’s preselected Dynamic Select mode. Operating conditions are monitored through a steering angle sensor, four turning angle sensors and driving speed from the ESP and brake pedal switch. The result is infinitely variable adjustment of damping for each wheel. Comfort mode calls up characteristics of a classic Mercedes-Benz saloon with relaxed, effortless cruising. Sport has the GLE Coupe morphing into a vehicle with sporty dynamics. The Dynamic Select Sport+ setting offers the driver added spice. Throttle response, gearchange strategy, ESP thresholds, steering power assist or the characteristic of the continuous damper adjustment exclusive to AMG: the system networks all the control systems, generating a wide variety of distinct driving experiences. All modes are displayed on the centrally positioned dashboard screen and are easy to operate via the Comand system knob. The Active Curve System, with active roll stabilisation, is

also part of the special sports systems that are activated when the driver selects Sport or Sport+. At the same time, the active anti-roll bars on the front and rear axles raise the comfort to saloon level and compensate for even heavy, one-sided instability such as when driving over potholes. Thus, combined with the freshly configured Sports Direct-Steer system, seriously crumpled road conditions are easily ironed out. Mercedes’ state-of-the-art safety is standard throughout the GLE Coupe range with nine airbags in position, Collision Prevention Assist Plus, Distronic Plus cruise control with Steering Assist and Stop and Go Pilot. Matching the accelerating ability, stopping the coupe is of premium quality with Pre-Safe Brake and Pre-Safe Plus helping to put on the anchors. Also coming to the aid of the driver are Crosswind Assist, Active Blind Spot Assist, Active Lane Keeping Assist, an Active Bonnet and an LED Intelligent Light System with Adaptive High Beam Assist Plus. An introduction to the GLE Coupe on the media launch less than auspicious, with a bump on the bonce welcoming my entry to the driver’s seat, the result of the vehicle's sleek, aerodynamic profile. A minor mishap, it did not happen again on repeated entries. All was forgiven, with the GLE Coupe reprising the pleasure gained from its wagon counterpart a day earlier, especially in the rorty aural contribution of the Mercedes-AMG GLE 63 S 4Matic. Magnificent. To test drive the Mercedes inquire at Mercedes Benz Berwick, 518 Princes Highway, Berwick. Phone 1300 622 622.

ANYBODY who thinks the new Mercedes-Benz GLE Coupe is a GLE just with a slicked-up body stuck on can think again. This is a different beast altogether, molding the best of two segments, coupe with a sports utility vehicle. Having driven both models within 24 hours of each other I can attest to this. Three variants have been pencilled in for Australia. They are the GLE 350d 4Matic Coupe, selling for $121,900, plus on-road costs; the GLE 450 AMG 4Matic at $141,900 and the AMG GLE 63 S 4Matic for $198,900. Already with a series of successful coupes to the Mercedes name, the GLE Coupe joins the classic two-door C, E and SClass models and the four-door CLS and CLA-Class coupes. From the simplified, yet robust radiator grille, flanked by unique lighting set-up to sleek profile and twin five-spoke 21 or 22-inch wheels the GLE Coupe range stands alone from its SUV stablemate. The company says, with room for up to five occupants, it combines typical coupe attributes, such as sportiness, dynamism and agility with the confident presence, versatility and robustness of a typical sports utility vehicle. Added to this are the fine touches of luxury that continue to set the Benz apart but also unexpected bonuses such as the widest rear seat bench and the largest luggage space - 1650 litres - in its class. For the first time in this segment, MercedesBenz is also offering a fully electric extendable and retractable trailer coupling, which also features a trailer stabilisation electronic stability program. At the foot of the range is the six-cylinder turbo-diesel engine powered GLE 350d 4Matic, which drives through a ninespeed automatic. Power output is 190kW, while maximum torque of 620Nm is on tap from a mere 1600rpm. For an entry-level model, standard equipment is exceptional, with AMG body styling, Dynamic Select transmission modes, 4Matic permanent allwheel drive, Airmatic Air suspension, 21-inch AMG wheels, LED Intelligent Light System, Comand navigation, Easy-Pack automatic power tailgate, Harman Kardon Logic 7 14-speaker surround-sound system, Nappa leather upholstery and heated and electronically adjustable AMG Line sports front seats. The first AMG sports model to arrive in the Australian market, the GLE 450 AMG 4Matic Coupe, presents an attractive introduction to the sports car world and Mercedes’ performance arm. Making use of a six-cylinder bi-turbo petrol engine putting out 270kW of power and 520Nm of torque, the car races from zero to 100km/h in 5.7 seconds. In addition to
