Stolen cards rip-off A CRANBOURNE West man has used stolen credit cards to rip-off swimming pool stores, liquor stores and servos for more than $4500, a court has heard. On four occasions, Simon Albert Shaw, 44, ordered over the phone using a stolen credit card to buy a swimming pool from a Clarks Rubber store in Melbourne’s south east just prior to Christmas last year. Each time, he then went into the store to get a refund onto another card, reaping a total of more than $2700. The court heard on 30 November that Shaw also placed two $500-plus orders of slabs of premium beer, bourbon and whiskey at Dan Murphy’s stores using the same card. Shaw made full admissions, telling police he’d received the credit card details from an unnamed friend, who owed him money. “At the time it was Christmas, and I needed money,” Shaw told police. “It was stupid.” The accused pleaded guilty to about 30 deception and theft charges, including possessing two stolen street signs, as well as breaching a community corrections order. About 1am on 14 June, the accused assisted a driver involved in a minor collision in Cranbourne West, the court heard. During Shaw’s act of charity, the driver’s iPhone 6 and credit card went missing. By 2.30am, Shaw made six fraudulent transactions,
totalling more than $700 using the driver’s card at servos and an ATM, Senior Constable Ryan Johnson told the court. During the next day, Shaw made calls and texts from the stolen phone. In October, Shaw used a stolen credit card to book a motel room, buy petrol, two family-sized meals from Pizza Hut, $170 of meat, a brush cutter and leaf blower, and ordered a $940 motorbike. He also pleaded guilty to three petrol drive-offs in Cranbourne in August and November. On both occasions he was unlicensed. Shaw had been on a community corrections order since February but had not completed one of 200 hours of required unpaid work, the court was told. Shaw’s lawyer argued Shaw had been medically unfit to comply with the order due to a shoulder and bicep injury since March. The accused’s offending was “hopeless” in that he gave his name and mobile number to the stores, the lawyer said. “There’s almost an inevitability about his prosecution for his matters. Magistrate Julie O’Donnell noted Shaw’s 20plus pages of criminal history, and a lack of medical proof to justify his non-compliance with his corrections order. “He’s committed these sort of offences for years.” Ms O’Donnell cancelled the corrections order and sentenced Shaw to 14 months’ jail, with a seven-month nonparole period.
Students have fine body of work CRANBOURNE Body Works has been struggling to find and keep interested apprentices. So in a bid to get them back in the garage the company has approached Casey council and numerous schools in the region to help boost numbers and teach teenagers what the job is really about. Students from Pakenham High School visited the garage and year nine student Josh got a lesson from Cranbourne Body Works mentor Brad Scholz.

Armed masked men
Police believe this man was involved in an alleged sexual assault on a bus in Cranbourne West.
By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS MASKED men wielding a machete and a wooden pole while they raided a Lynbrook service station have been captured on CCTV footage. Detective Sergeant Ivan Bobetic of Dandenong Embona Taskforce said there was a “fair element of planning” in the robbery at the 7-11 servo on South Gippsland Highway about 2.40am on 27 November. He said an unmasked man rang the bell outside the servo’s front doors and requested to be let in “to gain the trust of the person at the counter”. When the door was opened by an attendant, three masked and armed males jumped out from a hiding place around the corner and followed the man inside. The male armed with a machete jumped over wire screens and demanded that the attendant hand over cash from the till. The group, believed to be aged between 17 and 25, ran off with a “significant amount of cash”. The victim was “severely traumatised” but not otherwise injured, Sgt Bobetic said. “The threats made were significant, but I’m not prepared to go into the words used. “Thankfully, the attendant didn’t try to fight back. “When we’re dealing with weapons that are edged and threatened with violence... thankfully no-one was injured.” Sgt Bobetic said the taskforce hadn’t ruled out linking other inves-

The unmasked man handed himself into Cranbourne police hours after CCTV was publicly released by police on 1 December.
Three other males are still at large. The male armed with a machete was described as about 173 centimetres tall with a thin build and olive skin. He wore a white T-shirt, black hoodie, dark pants, black Adidas shoes, white socks, red gloves and a white covering over his face. A third male, wielding a pole, was Caucasian, about 163 centimetres tall and of medium build.
He wore a green hoodie with a round white logo on the front, black pants with a white stripe down the sides, black socks, white gloves and a grey face covering. A fourth male was Caucasian with a large build. He wore a white hoodie, black pants, black Adidas shoes, white socks, grey gloves and a black face covering.

A VICTORIA Police recruit has been allegedly caught drink driving in Cranbourne West. The female trainee police officer returned a positive reading when she was intercepted during a booze bus operation on Hall Road at 8.37pm on Sunday 29 November. She was issued with a penalty notice for drink driving after a second breath test returned a reading of 0.058 per cent.

Barry has since assured the centre that the snake has had its last shopping spree. “I released it on a private property (belonging to a friend) just outside of Cranbourne well away from everybody,” Barry said.

THE most dangerous snake in the world made a Christmas trip to Cranbourne Park Shopping Centre just 25 days out from the big day. A 1m long tiger snake was caught hiding among boxes of fruit at the newly renovated centre about 9.30pm on Monday 30 November. Security staff had been keeping an eye on the adult snake, and were relieved to see Snake Catchers Victoria’s Barry Goldsmith walk
through the door. “They were very happy to see me,” Barry said, and the snake was caught and bagged in no time. “I had four security guards around me as I caught the snake - I thought who’s monitoring the rest of the centre.” The tiger snake presumed to be about five years old had had a merry old time window shopping before his festive bargain hunting came to an end.

A WOMAN screamed after a fedora-clad man sat down next to her on a Cranbourne West bus and sexually assaulted her in the middle of the day. Police released on Friday 27 November an image of the man who allegedly sexually assaulted the 21-year-old. It’s understood the woman was already on the bus when the alleged offender got on at a bus stop along Cranbourne-Frankston, in Cranbourne West, just before 10am on Sunday 25 October. The bus driver stopped when he heard the victim scream and then kicked the man off the bus, near where he had got on. The man is believed to be aged between 30 and 35 years, had a tanned complexion, a solid build, dark shaved hair, blue eyes and a tattoo on his forearm. He was wearing a fedora, a dark top and dark pants. Anyone with any information or who believes they may know the identity of this man is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential crime report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au

Skilled approach needed “WE decided that we needed to address the stigma around panel beating because it’s no longer the ‘barking dog at the door, hat, beer in hand and dirty, dusty’ job people think it is.” Cranbourne Body Works is taking on the panel beating and spray painting industry one apprentice at a time. The business has been operating in Cranbourne for 27 years and owners Nicky and Kevin Slattery said they had to make some drastic changes to ensure its longevity. Cranbourne Body Works along with the entire trade have been struggling to find and keep interested apprentices for more than two years. “We thought why aren’t the kids coming, where are they, why don’t they want to learn?” Nicky said. “We’ve always had young school leavers knocking on our door asking for work but that has all stopped. “And the current tradesmen are an ageing workforce and there’s a skills shortage Australia wide because there are not enough young people coming through.” Earlier this year Nicky and Kevin decided to hold a staff meeting to discuss where to take their business. “We spoke about what we needed
to do to get the apprentices back and with the region experiencing high unemployment we figured there must be all this talent sitting out there wasted. “So we’ve tried to address the problem in schools,” Nicky said. Joining forces with both the Cardinia Shire and Casey councils and numerous schools in the area, Cranbourne Body Works is now seen as an employment trailblazer in the field. “The VACC (Victorian Automobile Chamber of Commerce) have got on board and said they haven’t been able to penetrate schools as effective as we have,” Nicky said. Since January this year the business has held information presentations at numerous local schools and on 26 November took a group of Pakenham High School Year 9 students on a tour of their garage. “After putting it all into practice this year we saw results within the first three months,” Nicky said. “We are showing the young students that panel beating and spray painting is not what it used to be - it’s safer and cleaner now and is a very technical and highly skilled job. “Our tradesmen are constantly getting re-trained in areas that are changing as cars are changing.” Nicky said shifting the way career
Year 9 student Brandon getting some paint prepared. 147664 counsellors at schools thought about panel beating had been an even more productive tool than just educating the student’s themselves. “We’ve changed the way we are going about things to see a return of young people in this field,” she said. The innovative and forward thinking team has also identified mental health as a problem in the trade. “We’ve had to educate ourselves in mental health because we’ve realised that what’s happening outside of work can heavily affect a young person’s work performance,” Nicky said. “It’s important to us to make sure our young apprentices feel like a worthy part of our team because they are. “That’s why we are using our older experienced tradesmen as teachers, mentors and friends for our younger tradesmen.” Utilising all ages and skill levels at

“In one of the briefs, it talks about (the accused and associates) driving in a convoy through red lights. “I don’t have to say what the possible consequences are.” Inspector Bruce Kitchen, regional commander of Greater Dandenong police, said there was a trend across metropolitan Melbourne of this type of crime.

The challenge was what to do about the young offenders’ rehabilitation.

POLICE have arrested several young members of a so-called 'Apex Gang' who have broken into homes to steal car keys and vehicles in Melbourne’s south-east in recent weeks. Detective Senior Sergeant Rodney Moroney, of Casey CIU, said locking up eight or nine “main offenders” had slowed down car thefts. “We were getting two to three a day and it’s temporarily slowed things down. “Now we are lucky if we get one or two a week.” Det Sen Sgt Moroney said the crime spate extended wider than just the Apex Gang members, who were typically aged between 15-25. “Instances have dropped off and slowed down dramatically and we will be working to keep it that way.” Magistrate Julie O’Donnell commented on the gang during the case of an 18-year-old Dandenong man charged over the theft of three vehicles and sets of car keys from a Keysborough home while its occupants were asleep in November. She said children as young as 13 years had recently fronted the court over a spate of similar offences. “I’m concerned about the risk that the Apex Gang has in the community.
one of ‘fun, fellowship and friendship’ the south-east Apex Gang are for joy rides, armed robberies and home invasions - which makes for an unfortunate connection in branding but one that shares no affiliation with the other.

Demon drink IF WE assume that excessive alcohol consumption is a contributing factor to family violence and other social ills then there is a part solution - have the government legislate to restrict adverting in a similar way to tobacco. It needs no comment by me or anyone else to know how effective this has been in saving lives and reducing suffering. Dr Ron Roberts, Cranbourne.

Project’s plastic pollution perturbs pupils
Authorised agent at:
By GEORGIA WESTGARTH
29-31 High St, Berwick 3806.
A SCIENCE project at Coral Park Primary School has found plastic to be the number one pollutant at the neighbouring River Gum Creek Reserve in Hampton Park. One hundred Grade 5 and 6 students took the science and maths experiment and found plastic made up 64 per cent of the rubbish in the wetlands adjacent to their school. School teacher Kirwan Peluso said the students were surprised by the items that were found dumped at the parklands. “We found push bikes and bike frames and other household items and I myself was shocked at the findings,” Ms Peluso said. “It looked like the rubbish had been there for a long time, wrappers had faded in colour and plastics were embedded into the ground.” The students covered about a square kilometre of land and Ms Peluso said the sheer amount collected and the places it was found has sparked the school students to want to do something about it. “We found there are no rubbish bins in the area and our aim now is to put some plans into action and perhaps speak to the council about our ideas,” she said. The students collected two garbage bags of rubbish over the weeklong investigations and Ms Peluso said cardboard and paper came sec-

proud of what the film has been able to show, and I think they’ve received some really positive feedback from ex-clients and people that work in the sector,” Sophie said. “There isn’t a film like this as far as they’re aware. “The conversations have also turned to what can we do with this film? Can it be used for community and corporate screenings? “Can it be used as part of an educational offering?” The answer to these questions is “yes”, with Sophie urging readers to host a community screening and put together a discussion panel.

Filmmaker Sophie Wiesner and Casey local and trained counsellor Dave Nugent worked together to create the documentary 'Call Me Dad', which aired nationally last Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS week. 126046
Po
DIRECTOR Sophie Wiesner gathered with her film crew in a Sydney pub when their family violence documentary finally went to air last Thursday. They watched eagerly and tweeted madly as the groundbreaking film ‘Call Me Dad’ was broadcast on the ABC across the nation. The documentary, which coincided with last week’s White Ribbon initiative, focuses on the inner workings of a men’s behavioural change group in Narre Warren. Over 16 weeks last year independent film-maker Sophie and her team chronicled the men involved in the group Heavy METAL - short for Men’s Education Towards Anger and Life. The documentary focuses on three men in particular - each a father and perpetrator of violence - and their families. “It’s really special to be able to share something we’ve been working on for years now, and to know we’ve been watching it with hundreds of thousands of others,” Sophie told Star News after the film’s debut. “I guess there’s also some trepidation as well. We think we’ve made a compelling and engaging film, but we don’t know how other people are going to react.” Sophie is incredibly proud and respectful of the bravery shown by the participants who allowed their stories to be broadcast on national television, and made sure she checked in

Arrested over attack
She has a need to know By LACHLAN MOORHEAD IT’S doubtful anyone other than Robin Dzedins can say they’ve attended every public council meeting since the City of Casey’s inception. It means Robin has sat in more than 500 meetings over the almost two decades since they were made open to the public in 1998. That’s not to mention the couple of years worth of meetings the community stalwart attended when her local council was still the Shire of Cranbourne before it merged with the City of Berwick. “I’m interested in how our city runs, I’m interested in helping it be good,” Robin, who lives in Lynbrook, told Star News. “I’m interested in contributing, I’m interested in hearing how its run.” Robin - who is a member of the council’s conservation advisory committee, access and inclusion committee and the multifaith network - has seen a lot in the chambers over all these years. “There have been some unpleasant times where there was extreme tension between councillors so it wasn’t easy for them to work together,” Robin said. But to counter the lows, Robin,
a previous Casey volunteer award winner, said one of the biggest positives for council and the community was the looming development of Bunjil Place, council’s new cultural precinct. “That’s a standout for me, I think it will be so good for the city,” she said. “I’m dying to see an arts centre, and for us to have a big library.” An avid bird watcher, Robin has been passionate about the environment for as long as she can remember. “I’ve always been interested in attending council meetings because of my interest in environmental matters,” she said. “I’m always very aware of any council decisions that might affect the environment.” Going forward, Robin said the biggest issue for the City of Casey will be managing the municipality’s ever burgeoning growth. “It’s grown so big that many people living in Casey have utterly no idea where the borders are,” she said. “I find that sad. “I think if you live in Casey it’s good to know about it and to know exactly where it is and what it includes.”
A Dandenong South man was left with deep cuts to his head after he was struck with a torch when a dispute broke out at a Lynbrook home. Uniform police and detectives were called to the Macleod Way property by the 25-year-old victim at 7.30pm on Sunday 29 November. It’s believed the victim went to the home and his phone and watch were taken from him during the scuffle. Police have arrested a 39-year-old female and a 42-year-old male resident. They have been released pending summons. A 16-year-old boy from Endeavour Hills was also arrested in connection to the incident and has been remanded in custody.
Blaze after car crash CFA crews were called out to a blaze in Junction Village on Monday after a car crash led to a grassfire along the South Gippsland Highway. The fire was brought under control by 4.15pm, while the driver was taken to Frankston Hospital after suffering a leg injury. No-one else was injured. Several tankers contained the scrub fire which started after the crash on the highway near Craig Road.

Fighting back By LACHLAN MOORHEAD CASEY Councillor Amanda Stapledon has spoken publicly for the first time since she was cleared last week of misconduct over allegedly corrupt Liberal Party donations. Speaking at the public council meeting on Tuesday, the Mayfield Ward councillor has told of the “harrowing� investigation and the “impact of watching my mother’s face� as the allegations were aired on the news. Cr Stapledon and fellow councillor Geoff Ablett were cleared last Wednesday when the Victorian Ombudsman released her report, finding the allegations could not be substantiated. But State Ombudsman Deborah Glass still recommended restrictions be put in place on donations made to candidates and political parties by property developers, while also recommending that all donations to a candidate or a political party should be required to be published on a publicly available register within 30 days of the relevant election. Crs Stapledon and Ablett who stood as Liberal candidates in last year’s state election - always denied wrongdoing after being interviewed as part of the state Ombudsman’s probe into donations and council planning decisions, which was first reported in The Australian last November. “The process has been harrowing in terms of my concerns around perception and the impact of watching my mother’s

face as my face appeared on television accusing me of something that she knew I had not done,� Cr Stapledon told the council chamber. She said she “couldn’t stop shaking� after Ms Glass released her findings, following “a year of feeling sick to the stomach�. “To those who may have been involved in this way, I say shame on you!� Cr Stapledon said. After the findings were released Cr Ablett slammed the “faceless people� who he claimed tried to derail his election campaign with the allegations. “Right over the 12 months I knew I hadn’t done anything wrong,� he said. “It’s disappointing to have faceless people do that to you. “It was quite a shock to me and it did have an effect on me
and my family. “You think what types of people are doing this?� The Ombudsman’s findings from the political donations investigation also discuss allegations made against fellow Casey councillors Sam Aziz, now mayor, and Damian Rosario, who both did not run in the state election. Key allegations included that councillors accepted donations from property developers in return for favourable council planning decisions, including the approval of a planning permit for a Narre Warren South funeral parlour. In August last year, Casey councillors approved Bereavement Assistance’s planning permit application for a funeral parlour at 236 Cranbourne Road - rescinding their decision to reject the proposal a month earlier.

IF THERE was any doubt, there isn’t anymore. Infamous party boy Corey Worthington has well and truly settled down after marrying partner Melissa at a special Bali wedding over the weekend. The now 24-year-old, who Star News spoke to back in September this year, 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.
“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?� Corey told Star News. “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. “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.�

Boxer’s fighting back By GEORGIA WESTGARTH ALISON Allan is fighting for more than her next boxing title as her six-year-old daughter Bella takes on her biggest battle yet - leukaemia. The Allan family are currently celebrating mum of two Alison’s first Australian boxing title while they sit bedside at the Royal Children’s hospital with Bella who was diagnosed with T-cell leukaemia in September. Alison competed in her first boxing match two years ago and now with an Australian championship under her belt the Cranbourne mum has a professional career in her sights. An amateur boxer, Alison, won her first Australian title in Queensland on Saturday 21 November against six-foot
tall Rebecca Burgess from South Australia. “There was a big crowd with a massive support network in the room and she came out more aggressive in the first round,” Alison said. Normally a nervous fighter, Alison said she was more relaxed than she’d ever been prior to a big fight. “I stepped it up in the next three rounds and in the last round I knew I was starting to hurt her so I just kept attacking. “I won the fight with a technical knockout,” she said. But outside of the ring the family of four are all fighting one battle - leukaemia. Alison said the tough contact sport
has helped her through the diagnosis and treatment of her young daughter. “Boxing has played a huge part in my life and it is something that is getting me through at present - it’s the best form of therapy,” she said. With her gloves on Alison said she has drawn strength from her beloved Bella. “I knew no fight I was going to face in the ring was even going to come close to the fight she has ahead of her.” Alison started her love affair with boxing after doing cardio boxing classes and said she hasn’t looked back since she was convinced to go amateur. “I’ve now had 12 fights and after winning the championship title it qualifies me to trial for the world games in April/ May next year,” she said.

Sergeant’s career on the frontline By LACHLAN MOORHEAD A FORTNIGHT ago Phil Byrne stood during the Remembrance Day service in Narre Warren North and paid his silent respects to the fallen and those still serving. The senior sergeant at the Endeavour Hills police station has seen first-hand the sacrifice made by Australian soldiers. In 2000 Senior Sergeant Byrne spent eight months in East Timor as a military liaison officer when Indonesia withdrew from the country. The 50-year-old was one of only a small number of Victorian coppers chosen to work there, with the Australian Government recruiting about 30 policemen from each state. When Indonesia withdrew from Timor, Sen Sgt Byrne said they took everything with them, including infrastructure and police officers.
“It was a pretty violent place, because there were a lot of militias still operating within East Timor that were sympathetic to Indonesia that I don’t think really wanted to pull out,” he told Star News. “So the United Nations actually stepped in... and as a result they needed a police force in place during the transition. “The federal police couldn’t deal with the numbers required to go over there so they asked the various state government police forces to contribute.” While his service in East Timor qualified Sen Sgt Byrne for the Anzac March, the copper said his work paled in comparison to those Australian soldiers heavily involved in conflict. “I got first-hand experience of what Australian and New Zealand soldiers were doing overseas and how dangerous it really was for them,” he said.
That’s not to say Sen Sgt Byrne wasn’t involved in his own “hairy situations” while in East Timor. Working as a liaison officer he spent a lot of time with the military overseeing border checkpoints, as displaced East Timorese residents returned to their country. On his second last day there Sen Sgt Byrne found himself on one side of a dirt track in the “middle of nowhere” - the border - without Australian army support, while the Indonesian army stood on the other side. Gum trees near the track reminded the cop of home. “My interpreter, who traditionally didn’t like the Indonesians, had an exchange in their own language with them and one of the Indonesian military had a very old lady standing next to him and hit her in the head with the butt of his

Senior Sergeant Phil Byrne. 147056 Picture: ROB CAREW rifle, on their side of the border,” he said. “My interpreter went nuts, verbally, and all the Indonesian military raised their rifles at us and I’ll never forget I was with a 20-year-old young Federal policeman from Canberra and I looked at him and said it’s our second last day and we’re gonna die here.” After a four-minute stand-off with guns raised on both sides, only the eventual presence of a military helicopter saw everyone lower their weapons.
WITHIN a matter of hours two Casey businesses were targeted last weekend. Detective Senior Sergeant Rodney Moroney at the Narre Warren police station believes the burglaries are linked. “Doors have been jimmied open both times but they failed to find anything to steal at the second location which was just down the road,” he said. Thieves broke into the Casey Dental Group in Narre Warren South on Cranbourne Narre Warren Road between 5.45pm on Friday 27 November and 7am the next morning. A television which was on a wall mount and $150 in cash that was inside a tin at the reception was stolen. A safe which contained $2000 in cash and a cheque book was also stolen after the offenders gained entry through the rear door. An attempted burglary occurred hours later at Ultimate Veterinary Clinic also located on Cranbourne Narre Warren Road. CCTV footage has confirmed the thieves struck at 5.12am on Saturday 28 November. An alarm went off and nothing was stolen. Police are waiting to review the CCTV footage.

Sophia’s a winner By GEORGIA WESTGARTH HUNDREDS of riders applied for the chance to represent Australia at the Penang International Horse Show, but just two made the cut- Tooradin teenager Sophia Landy emerged a winner. Sophia took out second, third and fourth places across different events over the course of the four-day competition, and team Australia won the overall event. “It was an experience of a lifetime against high level young riders from all over the world,” Sophia said. The unique horse show is a borrowed horse event, meaning all competitors ride on a horse that has been picked out of a lottery. Sophia, who is accustomed to riding unfamiliar horses, said she wasn’t fazed by the unknown. “I think that’s the reason I got selected because I do ride lots of different horses,” she said. Starting her love for horse riding and competing at the age of six, Sophia, 18, made the big move to Tooradin, during

Junior footballers make room to care By GEORGIA WESTGARTH THE South East Juniors (SEJ) Football League has adopted a room at the Ronald McDonald House (RMH) Monash with their recent donation of $5000. SEJ general manager Shaun Connell said the league had been donating $3000 to the home-away-from-home family service since 2011. “We are extremely proud to have donated $17,000 over the past five years,” Mr Connell said. The longstanding partnership with
the Casey clan McDonald’s and the RMH has led to a room at the Monash campus being solely funded by junior league. “We have adopted room two and it means our money will go toward the maintenance of that room,” Mr Connell said. “Things like broken taps and tiles can get replaced using that money as well as updating creature comforts like linens, it’s a really productive process.” The money raised for the children’s
charity house was boosted by an umpire’s trivia night which added $2000 to the original figure and Mr Connell said a group of umpires from SEJ also took some time to meet the families. “Some of our umpires volunteered to cook and prepare meals for the families using the House earlier this year,” he said. SEJ will maintain the guest room for the next 12 months and will continue to donate to the cause. “Ronald McDonald House is all
about providing juniors and their families with opportunities and their objectives fit perfectly with what we are about,” Mr Connell said. Manager at the league since 2010, Mr Connell said their donation was a small part of the money needed to keep the house open for families with sick kids. “Ronald McDonald House Monash needs to raise more than $50,000 over and above the money provided by RHM Charities to keep the centre running,” he said.

Home ransacked in break-in A HOME in Lynbrook had more than $5000 worth of property stolen last week. Jewellery, computers, mobile phones and a camera were stolen from the address on Gilmore Crescent. The home was invaded between 7.30am and 6.15pm on Friday 27 November through a timber laundry door which was forced open. The offenders ransacked the home and a television and other household items were moved but not stolen.

Helen’s Driving Tuition Manual and Automatic Holli is all smiles with her pup Wally. “I actually thought she would get better and that she would just be her old self again, but now she struggles enormously.” Holli now suffers with aphasia which impairs her ability to talk, read, write and understand speech as a result of her stroke.
The condition also causes fatigue and concentration, focus and emotional disturbances and, due to her ongoing battles, Kristi has set herself a real challenge. “I hate running and I thought that it was my turn to put myself completely out of my comfort zone be-

CRANBOURNE mum Kristi Bryceland describes the night her fiveyear-old daughter had a stroke as “terrifying”. It was a normal evening, the single mum recalls - “there were no warning signs,” she said. “Holli woke during the night and when I was putting her back to bed she wouldn’t lie down,” Kristi said. “It looked like she was having a nightmare but she wouldn’t talk to me, the look in her eyes was very scary.” Holli’s face drooped and she proceeded to convulse, vomit and eventually pass out. Since the stroke in March last year Holli and her mum’s lives have completely changed. “I went from working full time and earning good money to only being able to work one day a week,” Kristi said. With their days taken up by visits to see speech therapists, occupational therapists, child psychologists, dieticians, paediatricians, neurosurgeons, tutors and a heart specialist, Kristi said she feels like her daughter’s youth has been stolen. “She always has to be somewhere or doing something to aid her recovery,” Kristi said. But they have decided to take one giant stride to help aid others through their stroke recovery and stop stroke in its tracks. Holli and Kristi are walking in the National Stroke Foundation’s month long campaign Stride for Stroke and Kristi has pledged to run 100 kilometres and raise $2500. “It didn’t actually register with me for a long time that Holli would have lasting effects from the stroke,” she said.

PREPS at Hillcrest Christian College have buddied up with VCE students at Maranatha Christian School in a joint project for the betterment of both - a cubby house. Built and designed by six VCAL students from the Officer school as a part of their VCE program, the play house has proved a favourite among the young pupils. Prep co-ordinator at Hillcrest Joanna Wiggs said the construction venture was a great partnership between the schools to support learning and well-being of both age groups. “As part of developing their competencies, the VCAL students had to build something to meet the requirements of a client,” Ms Wiggs said. “I recognised an opportunity, and now the Preps have a wonderful backdrop for their social development through role play and the VCAL students have kept their ‘client’ very happy.” The cubby was finished and ready to use on Thursday 12 and Ms Wiggs said it had been the centre of play as an ice cream shop at recess and lunch times ever since. “Hillcrest gave Maranatha a basic design of what we would like and the VCAL students then used that to design and build the cubby - and the Preps love it,” she said.

Oldie is a goodie By CASEY NEILL CRANBOURNE man Mike Hall lives and breathes athletics. The 77-year-old was born in Cheltenham in the UK and in 1966 accepted an offer to migrate to Australia to continue his professional soccer career with Port Melbourne Slavia. Mike was later a player and coach at Dandenong City Soccer Club. “I retired at about 35 and we bought a farm up at Tynong North,” he said. He spent a few years setting up the property then at age 42, in 1981, came across Masters Athletics - “veteran athletics as it was in those days” - which targets women aged 30-plus and men aged 35 and over. “I thought: ’I’ll get back into doing some serious exercise’,” he said. Using the nearby forest as his training ground, he started doing long-distance running and Melbourne Marathons. “After a few years I took up hurdling and I did that for about 25 years, until I had a knee reconstruction - about 18 months ago, I suppose it was,” he said. “So I stopped hurdling but then my surgeon at the time said that he would guarantee - even at 75 at the time - that I’d be running again and he was right. “There’s metal in there now but I’m probably running quicker than I was before it was done, which is amazing really.” Mike has set more than 150 records, with 36 still intact dating back to 1985. “Once I got into hurdling, that’s where I had the most success. I got medals in three World Games over the years,” he said. “I got plenty of Australian records and gold medals in the state and national championships.” Mike said Melbourne’s World
Games in 1987 were the most memorable. “We had 6000 athletes from around the world for these games in Melbourne,” he said. “It was all so well done at the time and nobody’s managed to better that before or since.“ Brisbane hosted in 2002 so next year’s event in Perth will be Australia’s third World Games in 40 years. Mike’s wife Penny shares his passion - and success - and will likely be competing alongside him. “She’s a race walker. Penny hasn’t been competing seriously for the past two or three years because we compete in age groups and the older you get, the more important it is when you hit a new age group,” he said. Penny was about to hit 75 when the Gazette spoke to Mike and couldn’t wait for the birthday. “She leaves all those 70-year-olds behind. And the 80-year-olds don’t want to see her come in,” he said. “Masters athletes are the only ones who look forward to getting older!” The Halls travelled around the world to compete and socialise. “I bumped into a journalist who was into the athletics in America,” Mike said. “There were thousands of masters athletes over there so he started writing a newspaper. “I thought ’that’s just what we need in Australia’.” He produced The Veteran Athlete from 1986 to 1992, publishing stories, photographs, news, results and forthcoming events. “I was producing this every four weeks - all by long hand, of course, in those days,” he said. “(Star News Group owner) Ian

Thomas was a good friend of mine at the time and I showed him what I was thinking of doing. “He said: ’If you’re serious about it and you do all the work and bring it to us every four weeks...’ and they did the editing and printed the whole thing for us. “We kept that going for nearly 10 years. “We’d send it out to 4000 veteran athletes all around the country.” But the advertisers started to drop off. “We couldn’t keep it going because it was costing us money,” he said. His desire to share the stories of Masters Athletes stayed with him, so he last year produced Age Shall Prove No Barrier in the Pursuit of Excellence: A Selection of Some of Australia’s Greatest Veteran/Masters Athletes. “I know all these people. I’ve seen what they’ve done,” he said. “Two of them since I’ve done the

book have gone. I thought ’I’d better get it done before it’s too late’ and I was just in time with two of them.” Mike said that knowing all the athletes personally was a big help in preparing the book. “It took me about nine months there were a lot of sleepless nights,” he said. “Choosing who to include was the hardest part. “Gradually I had to cut it back to 30, but I could have easily doubled it.” He’s sold about 350 books “so it well and truly paid for itself”. Mike hopes it will inspire others to join the organisation or set personal health and fitness goals. “I try to get the message across of how important it is for older people to watch their diet and exercise,” he said. “It’s so important when you get to this age that you can live those last years without suffering, which so many do.
“Penny and I compete on Monday nights in Cranbourne, Wednesday night at Springvale and Thursday night in Frankston. “We train on two other days, so that’s five days out of the seven we’ve got something on. “We never stop. “Penny goes out for anything between 30-minute and 60-minute walks around this area. “I do my other two days over at the golf course and I’ve got a set-out 40-metre track next to the golf course, which amuses the golfers. My course runs parallel to one of the holes on the course. Invariably if they don’t hit their drive right it ends up in the trees where I am.” Mike said would-be athletes could show up to training and give it a go. “They can come along to see whether it’s what they think it is and if they like it they can keep coming,” he said.

INSPIRED Homes takes a boutique approach to building new homes. From the moment clients sit down for their first free design consultation they have the freedom to talk about what they really want to see in their new home. They can see their requests come to life right before their eyes as they work with managing director and designer Andrew Stickley. Within a few hours they will be walking out the door with a design tailored to their own specific requests that they can tweak and adjust further throughout the design process. Design freedom does not come at an extra cost at Inspired Homes. It is the philosophy of the company! “Andrew was unsparing in his time and professional advice, designing modifications to suit our very specific needs,” said John and Sue, happy owners of a new Inspired Homes home. “It is uncommon to find someone who truly cares about delivering on customer expectations in a cost effective manner.” The design process at Inspired Homes is personalized so clients can get exactly what they are looking for. “We’re all about working in partnership from start to finish,” Andrew said. “We work with you to create a home to your exact requirements. “We start with assessing your land to make the most of the characteristics, orientation and outlook of your property.” The Inspired Homes modular design system makes it easy to add rooms, move rooms and modules around the central core. The Interactive Home Creator Tool on the company website brings this system to life, allowing customers to find a starting point that they can further develop with Andrew. It’s fun and it gets them thinking outside the square! Try out the Inspired Home Creator Tool at www.inspiredhomes.com.au and visit

Seasonal cheer TOORADIN PHARMACY TOORADIN will light up in green and red for its 18th ‘Christmas on the Foreshorew’. Tinsel, shiny noses and picnic rugs will dot the Tooradin foreshore on Friday 18 December as families from across the southeast settle in for a night of carols. The festivities will kick off at 6pm with the annual fireworks set to decorate the sky around 9.40pm in a fitting finale. Tooradin Primary School along with the Tooradin Calisthenics will perform Christmas hits from the stage, and food and drinks will be available to buy on the night.

Grateful Koreans thank navy man By GEORGIA WESTGARTH JOHN Laughton never had to pull a trigger or launch a missile but for 219 days he sat in readiness on board a Naval ship on the South Korean coast line. Now at 87 years of age the former peacekeeper with the Royal Australian Navy was recognised for the third time by the South Korean government. John said the Ambassador for Peace Medal, which was awarded as an expression of appreciation from the South Korean people, was “particularly special to him”. “The Korean Government treats us spectacularly well,” John said. “I was invited as a guest of honour a few years ago and it was the first time I had been back to Korea since I was 24 years old and working as a radio electrician with the Navy. “People on the street would come up to me and shake my hand and say ‘thank you’ and I’ve been to many countries and I’ve never been treated as well as I was in Korea.” He was among 10 other

60th anniversary of the Korean War and the other was a thankyou medal from the government that represents all the nations that fought in Korea. It’s quite unique,” he said. “I’ve scanned my medals and want to frame them and put them up on the wall.”

Joe’s week to celebrate an amazing century By GEORGIA WESTGARTH JOE of Tooradin spent the last seven days celebrating the past 100 years. Giuseppe Giovanni Gaiardo - or ‘Joe’ as he’s known - turned 100 years old on 18 November and three days later got to walk his granddaughter down the aisle. A member of the Cranbourne Seniors, Joe spends his days playing bowls, taking “Nonno naps” as his children call it, and keeping Italian traditions alive. “He has been an inspiration to us all and will be to his generations to follow,” his son Lou Gaiardo said. Born in northern Italy, Joe has been through both World Wars and lost his father in WWI. “Life was pretty hard back then - you had to make the most of what you had,” Lou said. “My father did his apprenticeship as a carpenter when you had to pay the employer to teach you.” Surviving the tough times Joe met the love of his life, Rosa, from the neighbouring town and was soon married with two sons Luigi and Angelo. Eventually ending up in Australia to find work, Joe sent money back to his family for two years before they made the big move to Australia. Joe and Rosa were married for 53 years when Rosa passed away 16 years ago. Enjoying each day of his birthday week with family and friends, Lou said the century milestone was
Joe celebrating his century with a big smile. a great time to reflect on his father. “It was a week full of joyous celebrations reflecting on all the memories that have been shared, the wisdoms that he has passed on and the amazing life that he has lived,” he said.

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
The taste on everyone’s lips By CASEY NEILL A CLYDE herb business will use a $430,000 boost to increase its productivity by 500 per cent. Australian Fresh Leaf Herbs will use the Coles Nurture Fund Cash announced on 23 November to build a state-of-the-art hydroponic greenhouse and invest in sustainable farming methods. It’s due to be finished next March and will feature Dutch-designed rolling benches that use 85 per cent of available space, compared to growbeds which only use 60 per cent. Waste-oil heaters will regulate the greenhouse temperature, allowing increased production throughout the year. Fresh Leaf in September received the Coles Rising Star Award. Managing director Jan Vydra started the business with William Pham in Clyde in 2008. “We tried growing basil outdoors and we did relatively OK at it but we found that there was some inconsistency in controlling the crop,” he said. “We started growing more and more hydroponic produce which gave us pretty close to year-round production. The environment has also benefited. “Over the last three years growing hydroponically, we’ve saved just under half a billion litres of water compared to conventional farming,” Mr Vydra said. “This space over here grows about 10,000 bunches of basil a week. I think
it’s about 12,000 square metres, off the top of my head. “You would need 10 times that space to grow outdoors and you would use 10 times the amount of water. “Even though it’s really efficient, it’s still 52 per cent inefficient because of all the walkways. “The new technology that we’ve got will actually condense that area further. “We’ve got a shuttle system that lets us push all the things around. We’ll have 35 per cent more production per square metre.” Mr Pham had two greenhouses when he met Mr Vydra. “William actually came from a banking background but his father used to grow hydroponic tomatoes in Adelaide,” Mr Vydra said. “He’d just had enough of the corporate lifestyle. “I was running Yarra Valley Farms, which was a distributor of fruit and vegetables. “I started to get a lot of complaints about fresh herbs. “Slowly I learnt that herbs were really important to chefs because all the products really differentiate their plates and give their customers an experience.” It was at the time that MasterChef was capturing viewers’ imaginations. “I had a hospitality focus to start with but I switched to retail very quickly because those food competition programs just took off,” he said. “There’s really been a revolution in
Jan Vydra. 145490 the cooking culture in Australia. “Our business rode that wave back in 2008 when we started growing 2000 bunches of basil. “Today we probably grow 120,000 to 130,000 bunches a week.” Fresh Leaf started with one variety. “Today we have over 70 or 80 different varieties of products ranging from fresh herbs to Australian natives, edible flowers to micro cresses,” Jan said.
The company employs about 65 people and sells about 4.5 million bunches and punnets - up from 2 million in 2010 and on its way to 6.3 million by 2019, if all goes according to plan. “We want export to be the biggest part of our business,” Jan said. “We’ve got 23 million people in Australia. “Realistically we’re touching 70 per cent of the nation, which is 16 or 17 million people.
“Going into Asia, we suddenly have half a billion people that we can access, that are changing their habits and becoming more Westernised and looking for Western products.” Mr Vydra hopes the new greenhouse will help Fresh Leaf to play its part, and said vertical farming was the next frontier. He will learn about the practice from the world’s best on an overseas study tour next year, thanks to a Nuffield Australia Farming Scholarship and $30,000 from the William Buckland Foundation. This research will shape a new purpose-built facility, which Jan plans to build in two to three years. For now, it will help to transform the flower-growing house in Devon Meadows that Fresh Leaf acquired about three years ago. The Flowerdale Farm had supplied micro greens and edible flowers for about 30 years, and will soon be home to one of the most expensive greenhouses in Australia. It also now has four greenhouses dedicated to Australian natives and edible succulents. “Sometimes our products are very new so getting that cut-through for them to adopt them, especially retailers...” he said. “It trickles down. New products are really popular with chefs because they’re looking for it, they’re creative. Then consumers come in. “I think we’ve got a pretty big journey in front of us.”

Stars descend on Casey Fields for family fun SOME of Victoria’s cricket greats will be smacking balls out of Casey Fields this festive season. The Melbourne Stars will be rolling into town for the annual ‘Casey Family Fun Day’ on Sunday 13 December. Locals will be able to rub shoulders with men’s captain David Hussey and team mates James Faulkner and Glenn Maxwell along with the women’s team captain Meg Lanning and Kristen Beams. The free carnival event will include rides, entertainment and elite sporting matches. Melbourne Stars CEO Clint Cooper said the day was an exciting part of the Stars pre-season preparation.

“We get such a warm reception from our fans in Casey and it gets us fired up for the start of the season,” Mr Cooper said. “It’s great to bring professional sport and some of cricket’s most colourful personalities to the Casey community especially when we get to visit and play on the terrific surface at Casey Fields.” Participants on the day can expect meet and greets with the cricketers and signed autographs as well as the chance to watch the men’s and women’s team play a full-scale practice match. The Victorian Indigenous Team will roll the arm over in a friendly encounter against Victoria Police from 8am.

Left spellbound by Cos’s tricks By GEORGIA WESTGARTH TAKING the world by storm one magic trick at a time Paul Cosentino first started his love affair with mystery, illusion and escapology with books from his local library in Lysterfield. Now with his second magic kit hitting stores this Christmas, the charmed star who now goes by the name ‘Cosentino’ said practice was what truly made a great magician. “I started doing magic at 12 years old mostly with books and then a kit, and these days with the internet it’s so much easier to master the skills,” Cosentino said.
Still practising his skills 20 years on after coming second in the 2011 series of Australia’s Got Talent (AGT) and a successful television series on Channel Seven, Cos spends most of his time at his custom- built studio in Hallam- the place where he did most of his thinking for his newest magic kit, ‘Astonishing Magic’. “The theme of this kit is learning the fundamentals of magic; it has 200 tricks to learn and it covers shuffling cards to mathematical tricks for all ages,” he said. Known for his gasp worthy tricks, Cos has gained world-wide fame which is a long way from where he first started performing to high school students.
“The first shows I did were school incursions, and when I was 17 years old I would teach children as well - I was a kid teaching kids magic,” he said. After stealing hearts with his mystical ways four years ago, Cos said he didn’t expect a lot of what’s come his way since AGT- except one thing. “I never expected 350 million people would tune into my TV show which has been aired in 40 countries. I never expected to win Dancing with the Stars or have people writing to me in Spanish on my Facebook page. “But I always knew I’d be a magician,” he said.

Mitch and Jason pad up By RUSSELL BENNETT IT’S been a hell of a start to the cricket season for Kooweerup young gun Mitch Davey. Having just played in his first ever West Gippsland Cricket Association (WGCA) Premier grade game - alongside his dad, Demons champion Matt, no less - Mitch has just been named with great mate Jason Cox in the Vic Country side to face off against the best young talent across the country in the School Sport Australia (SSA) 15 years and under cricket championships in Brisbane. Mitch and Jason are just two of a new and exciting breed of youngsters at Denhams Road, one that has enhanced Kooweerup’s already impressive reputation for producing gun players. The tall, left-arm pace duo from Kooweerup Secondary College impressed in the Vic Country trial games - with Cox back bowling for just the second time after returning from a stress reaction in his left leg. The Vic Country honour is the highest level either of the two boys have received so far in their young careers, and they can’t wait to ply their trades on Queensland turf from 20 to 28 February next year. They’ll get their team caps presented on day three of next month’s Boxing Day Test. Both boys relish the opportunity to learn from the likes of the Bright brothers, Chris O’Hara, Michael Giles, and Mitch’s dad Matt at Kooweerup, and Jason and Mitch have already identified another trio of youngsters to keep an eye on - Bailey Perry, Kalin Parker and the super-impressive Mitch Cammarano. Both Mitch and Jason played for the Casey-South Melbourne fourths in a Twenty20 on Sunday. Jason took

Paul’s Anglican Grammar in Warragul, is also in the Vic Country side headed to Queensland in February. When the Gazette last caught up with him earlier this year, he’d captained the Un-
der 14 Warragul side in the Region 7 (Gippsland) junior country cricket carnival in Traralgon, and led from the front - he was the competition’s leading run-scorer with 222 and nearly
topped the wicket tally as well with 10 scalps. He last year belted the winning runs for Victoria against New South Wales in the SSA national championships in Bendigo.
Whateley reaches for ticket to Rio Lalita’s in with a shot By JARROD POTTER WITH the last rounds of Olympic qualification coming up, Berwick boxer Jason Whateley has a ticket to Rio within his reach. Whateley has claimed back-to-back Australian titles and is in peak form with only two qualifiers remaining. The 196cm man-mountain punched his way through the 2016 Australian Championships last week as he successfully defended his 91kg heavyweight national title and advanced another step closer to his dream. In defeating fellow Victorian teammate Adrian Paoletti, the championship victory also closed the chapter on Whateley’s 2012 attempted qualification, where he finished second and just missed out on advancing. “It’s huge - I remember getting silver at the 2012 Australian nationals and there were no challenges then, so
Jason Whateley is on the verge of Olympic qualification with two rounds remaining in his bid to go to Rio. 138880 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS you had to accept it and move on,” Whateley said. “I remember how heartbroken I was to lose that one, so it was great to win this time and it was four years in the making. “I’ve had a great year this year - picking up both Australian titles has been great and going into an Olympic year that’s the dream, that’s the goal - so it’s the right step forward.”
He needs to fight Paoletti again this weekend in a challenge bout, and if Whateley wins he’ll be off to the Asian Championships in March with one goal in mind - finishing top three to secure his Australian Olympic spot. “It’s the first step of qualifying for the Olympics - I have a challenge bout on the 5th in Melbourne, I’ll fight against the finalist (Paoletti)
again,” Whateley said. “A win puts me into the Asian Championships where I have to get a top three there - if I get that I get to go to the Olympic Games.” It’s not just against other Australians he’ll battle for the Olympic spot - only the top three athletes in the Asia and Oceania region who will qualify in his weight division. It might seem a daunting challenge, but after 70 bouts Whateley knows what it takes to fight towards his ambitions. “I’ll be the only Aussie to go from my division,” Whateley said. “It’s a lot tougher for the lighter guys, but for the heavier guys there aren’t as many competitors in Asia, so I’m pretty confident.” Whateley wanted to thank Zagames Berwick for their support as the venue held a fund-raiser to help him get to the Worlds recently.
By JARROD POTTER JOINING her sixth Olympic Games team, Berwick shooter Lalita Yauhleuskaya will represent Australia once again after winning an Olympic air pistol quota. The 51-year-old naturalised Australian has been among the world’s best air pistol shooters for the better part of 30 years and will continue her high-calibre career in Rio de Janeiro next year after she secured the quota at the Oceania Continental Championship in Sydney. The air pistol specialist made her Olympic debut in 1996 representing her native Belarus and will join an elite group of about 100 Olympians throughout history to have featured in six or more Games. A perennial fixture at Lysterfield’s Yarra Pistol Club - alongside another Olympian Dina Aspandiyarova - Yauhleuskaya has a chance to add to the bronze medal she won at the Sydney Olympics in 2000 in the 25-metre air pistol. Her resume also includes seven Commonwealth Games gold medals - at Manchester in 2002 and
Lalita Yauhleuskaya will pack her bags for a sixth Olympic Games after securing an air pistol quota this week. 147831 Melbourne 2006 - and she also went to Delhi and Glasgow as part of an exceptional career. Berwick shotgun shooter Laetisha Scanlan has also qualified for the shooting team Games which will start in August next year.

Swans take flight By JARROD POTTER VICTORIAN PREMIER CRICKET REVIEW - ROUND 8 AND 9 (Twenty20) AFTER eight rounds at the helm, Casey-South Melbourne skipper Lachlan Sperling finally got to lead the boys to a victory, as the Swans knocked over Melbourne. After plenty of close misses this Premier season so far, the form-line finally changed for the Casey boys on Sunday in their Round 9 Twenty20. In complete contrast to its recent two-day struggle against Monash Tigers - bowled out twice for 150 runs total - the Swans were upbeat throughout the weekend, testing Prahran on Saturday before taking the first triumph over Melbourne on Sunday. “Fantastic - it’s much better than losing,” Sperling said. “Especially after the Monash Tigers game - we couldn’t have played much worse through all areas of the game and to come out and play a lot better was great. “It’s a bit of relief I suppose and the hardest one to get is that first one ... fingers crossed it can kick-start us a bit and give us some belief that we can match it with everyone.” Sunday’s T20 battle saw former Victorian batsman Michael Hill (45) and up-and-comer Seb Gotch (33) rise as the best of the MCC contingent, but the visitors couldn’t seal the deal against the Swans’ troupe. Lee Diston (3/18), James Seymour (2/19) and Brendan Rose (2/23) kept the pressure up and restricted Melbourne to 130. The chase was a surprise for most at Casey-South Melbourne- as it has leaned heavily on its openers - James Seymour (24) and Kasun Suriaratchie - but the middle order in fact won hat made its mark, with the skipper in particular holding off the MCC attack. Sperling (38) alongside Keirran Voekl (31) hit the bad ball and rotated strike - keeping things simple as the chase diminished - before he was run out.
Lachlan Sperling, pictured playing two-day cricket recently, was thrilled to get his first victory as Picture: JARROD POTTER Casey-South Melbourne captain. 146636 Voekl, Dylan Hadfield (29no) and Nathan Lambden (8no) finished the job at the death to get the Swans home with two balls to spare. “We started pegging them back, bowled the right areas and limited the boundaries - they got 130 and I was very happy with that and that we could chase it,” Sperling said. “Kasun went out to a pretty good catch, didn’t make too many, but it was good that the middle order stood up and made it count when
the game was on the line. “That’s the most pleasing thing the number of contributors we had was great.” Backing up for another doubleheader, Casey will head to Fitzroy-Doncaster on Saturday before hosting Greenvale to round off the Twenty20s. Saturday wasn’t ideal for the Swans, conceding 5/150 to Prahran across the first Twenty20 of the
weekend as David Hussey (52) and Adam Bull (46) flayed the Swans with the ball. The Swans performed ably with the bat as Seymour (24) and Suriaratchie (27) got the side off to a quick start, but soon fell away on Saturday as Prahran showed off its all-rough might. Win number one pulls CaseySouth Melbourne off the bottom of the ladder, where it has resided for most of the last two seasons.

DDCA TURF 1 REVIEW - ROUND 5 (Day 1) IN WHAT could have been upset of the year, the top dog Cranbourne (107 and 0/9) barely scraped by against re-promoted Narre Warren (72) as first innings points were decided on a bowler’s day. CRANBOURNE v NARRE WARREN JANAKA Liyanabadalge (6/35) superbly spun his way through the Eagles on a day where even the greats struggled with the blade. Steve Spoljaric (4) succumbed quickly, but resolve was carried through by Matt Chasemore (43) - as the high-calibre recruit showed why he was so highly sought after. He guided the remainder of the short innings with Brandon Tyzzer (28no), but the next wave of Liyanabadalge scalps kicked in to push the Eagles out after 40 overs. Spoljaric (5/38) made sure he wouldn’t be absent with the ball though - taking the new rock with Cam Kelly (0/4), the four-time Wookey Medallist seared through the top order. When the smoke cleared Narre Warren was 4/1 - four wickets down that is - as the champion all-rounder ensured his side had first innings points locked away. Nick Shirt (6) while not scoring much at least batted out an hour at the crease while Omar Baker (22) and captain Kaushalya M Weeraratne (20) tried to steady the ship. This time it was Chasemore (3/13) to unleash his own rampage as Narre fell 31 short on the first dig in a massively missed opportunity.
BUCKLEY RIDGES v HEINZ SOUTHERN DISTRICTS BATTING Heinz Southern Districts (0/19) into oblivion, Buckley Ridges (283) belted the fellow top-four side to leave a huge mountain to climb next week. After Michael Davies (4/65) snared two immediate scalps, the 2/0 score line looked horrendous, but it turned around quickly as Susantha Pradeep (120) and Jayson Hobbs (46) returned fire. Their 114-run stand was ended by Davies, but Pradeep carried on with Dan Watson (33) and Suren Ekanayake (28) to belt his first ton of the season. The frenzy ended early, to the relief of the Cobras, as Pradeep fell to Matt Downe (3/62), leaving the tail to swat another 70 after his demise. Heinz remained 11-strong at stumps with a whopper to hunt down, but they will be thankful it is at the postage stamp known as Park Oval and not Reedy Reserve. HALLAM KALORA PARK v BERWICK BERWICK will be another to wonder what if after letting Hallam Kalora Park (9/207) off the hook. Ben Hilliard (51) withstood the best of the Berwick attack - devastated by injuries and unavailability. It left most of the work to English leg-spinner Jack Williams (4/60) - who was brilliant across his 32 overs with 15 maidens. Berwick rattled off 51 overs before tea, but couldn’t rouse Hilliard from the crease until he notched his 50. Cory Bevan (4/43) took the new rock and also bowled admirably throughout the day.

Matches to light the fire By DAVID NAGEL IT HAS been bubbling along since early October, but West Gippsland cricket’s Premier Division is set for an explosive three-week lead-in to Christmas. The WGCA reverse draw will see teams that meet in round seven over the next two weeks then back up for a one-day contest in round eight on December 19. And it’s a tantalising stretch that will see the top-four sides put their premiership credentials on the line. Undefeated Pakenham will host a Tooradin side that has been unblemished since round one, while Cardinia and Merinda Park, third and fourth respectively, will look to avoid a likely slip as fifth-placed Kooweerup takes advantage of a soft part of its draw. Tooradin captain Tom Hussey knows his Seagulls will need a complete team performance to trouble the Lions on their own deck at Toomuc Reserve. “We need everyone firing to be an honest chance of beating them,” Hussey said. “They’ve got a very strong batting line-up, but in Sutts (Dylan Sutton), Matt Welsh, Azza (Aaron Avery), and Lowndsy (Josh Lownds) we’ve got plenty of options with the ball as well. It’ll be a ripper this week - a real test to see where we’re at as a side.” The Seagulls (5/275dec) will head into this week’s heavyweight clash with mixed emotions after just falling short of an outright victory against league cellar-dwellers Cranbourne Meadows (126 and 9/170). Lownds (4/30) and Sutton (3/45) took first innings bowling honours, while Tim Lenders (5/18) led the Seagulls’ charge to an outright in the Rebels’ second dig. But their efforts were foiled by an outstanding contribution from Shameera Weerasinghe, who backed up his 67 in the first innings with a brilliant 94 in the second. Kooweerup (259) has broken a two-game los-

Openers Jess Mathers (3/25 and 3/48) and John Bright (2/30 and 2/25) claimed 10 wickets between them as the back-to-back reigning premiers returned to form.

match-winning score. Lions’ skipper Dom Paynter (3/8) backed up his 172 from week one with another standout performance while Chris Smith (2/31) chimed in with a couple early. This week: Pakenham (1) v Tooradin (2), Cardinia (3) v Merinda Park (4), Cranbourne Meadows (8) v Kooweerup (5), Emerald (7) v Upper Beaconsfield (6).
BURDETT’S THE LARGEST LANDSCAPE PRODUCT RANGE IN THE SOUTHERN HEMISPHERE
Massive footmarks showed through after five overs as bowlers slipped through the crease at Perc Allison Picture: JARROD POTTER Reserve. 147743 and watching the game pretty much getting washed away is disappointing as a whole,” Price said. “Five overs in and the game was abandoned because the bowlers slipping on the front foot - they had to pull the pin. “Excluding Saturday - where we had five overs before it was abandoned - in the previous four weeks preceding, we’ve had one day’s cricket. “It’s been a long time for us to get this far and a big outlay for us and that’s why we want to see as much cricket on there as possible.” Price said he had talked to the DDCA about the policy and hoped the initial decision to lay covers could be given to the clubs so they could be laid out earlier in the week. “We acknowledge that we’re at the will of the weather gods, but the league should let the
clubs take control of their own destiny,” Price said. “The determination should be left to the clubs - regardless of the curation staff - private or council - the clubs should be in a position to manage their own covers. “It’s an old fashioned job that just needs people there to do it and we’ve been managing that since last Christmas. “The clubs should be able to manage it themselves and if they’re preparing poor wickets they should be penalised.” Beaconsfield has a Twenty20 match scheduled for Wednesday night and has been granted league dispensation to freely administer the covers, which Price hopes it will be a framework for the future. Beaconsfield versus Mordialloc has been rescheduled for a one-dayer on Saturday.

BEACONSFIELD missed even more cricket over the weekend after the DDCA turf cover policy left them at the mercy of another barrage of weekday rain. To the dismay of everyone at Beacy’s training on Thursday evening, the rain was falling but they weren’t allowed to put out any covers. The DDCA turf covers policy states every Friday the turf cover situation will be assessed by the league and “clubs not following directions (including laying covers without permission) shall be subject to penalty”. It led to Beaconsfield and Mordialloc’s DDCA Turf 3 clash to be called off after five overs on Saturday, with the wicket deemed dangerous by the umpires after bowlers slipped and each ball created divots. The DDCA’s policy stops clubs making a decision on laying covers earlier in the week, unless authorised or granted a special exemption by the league. To add further pain to the situation, there was no rain on Saturday afternoon but the Tigers were left without play for the fourth time in five rounds. Beaconsfield Cricket Club president Aaron Price said it was tough to watch the brand new turf wicket - only laid late last year - cop these mid-week downpours uncovered. “Standing there at training at Beaconsfield on Thursday night

Girl power to the fore CRANBOURNE BOWLS CRANBOURNE Ladies playing in Division 1 Midweek and Cranbourne 1 playing in Division 2 Saturday pennant had good wins, while side four at last had an exciting first win for the season. Lesley Mulder and her team of Bernice Helle, Kath Dudink and Sandra Mueller crushed the opposition by 23 shots to help defeat Doncaster by 43 shots. Asked after the game how she went, a usually modest Lesley replied “the girls played really well but I must admit that I did have a day out” The Saturday Pennant side one made a few selection changes that paid dividends with two rinks up and two rinks drawn for the day. An outstanding win by the rink of Ian Barrenger and his team of Jeff Parker, Roger Roscoe and Lynne Wood by 9 shots was the difference and gave Cranbourne a win by 10 shots over Noble Park. Meanwhile side four had its first win of the season against Clayton by 4 shots with good performances by skip Frank Coulter and his team of J. Durrant, David Wright and Norm Coley and skip Rob Dickson and his team of Olive Stanley, Ian Crimmins and Kevin Griffiths. New bowls did not help club legend Stan Burnett against Dandenong Club playing in side two in a game that he and his team would prefer to forget.

The Parkers four finish runners-up HAMPTON PARK BOWLS THE week started earlier than usual when Hampton Park four - Jack Edwards, Peter Hayden, Laurie Edwards and Shannon Micallef played in the Casey Bowls District Championship. After winning their semi-final game against a Narre Warren combination in the morning they had to play a Pakenham team in the final. Unfortunately the Parkers could not continue their form and finished runners-up in the Casey District fours. TUESDAY Division 1 travelled to Keysborough and had a disappointing loss. Val Moore, Ann Westwell Chris Barnes and Chris Hendrie was the only winning rink, 16-10, while Geoff Ladner, Ron Beverly, Neville Hendrie and Denise Eastick (1324) and Marion Battaglia, Andrew Brandolin, Toni Sutton and Helen Lambert (19-25) both lost. Hampton Park (1) 2-48 lost to Keysborough 14-59. Division 3 were at Pound Road against Sandringham for another win. Although Grace Hogan, Jen Sherry, Gwen Clough and Ray Wood lost by 11 shots (19-30), Dot Carr, June Damon, Brian Diaper and Geoff Ampt covered that score, winning by 11 (24-13). Rob Woff, John Nunan, Jim Westwell and Heather
Naismith’s 29-17 win gave the Parkers a 12 shot win. Hampton Park (2) 14-72 defeated Sandringham (2) 2-60. SATURDAY Saturday’s Division 1 was at St Kilda, and slow starts were the downfall of three rinks. Chris Hendrie, John Nunan, Andrew Brandolin and Shannon Micallef were down by 14 shots before they got into stride but lost 14-21, John Wright, Jack Edwards, Larry Simpson and Laurie Edwards, could not get started and lost 10-31, and Chris Barnes, Sean McDonald, Mark Paton and Zak Storm could only win 7 ends to lose 9-26. The bright note was a 26-17 win by Shane Hardy, Helen Lambert, Steve Barnes and Warwick Hardy. Hampton Park (1) 2-55 lost to St
Hampton Park's team that finished runners-up in the Casey Bowls District Fours Championship, from left: Peter Hayden, Laurie Edwards, Shannon Micallef and Jack Edwards. 147871

Hampton Park (2) 3-63 lost to Moorabbin (1) 15-91. Division 6 at Pound Road had a much needed win against Ringwood. Janice Collins, Wayne Grimsey, Bill Webb and Craig Richards
had a slow start but came back to lose by only 5 shots, 16-21.

RSL win a thriller - after trailling by 14 CRANBOURNE RSL BOWLS SATURDAY - Pennant Round 8 Division 2 - Cranbourne RSL 82 defeated Burden Park 79. In a really close game the RSL finished over the top of Burden Park to score one of its best wins ever. Trailing by some 14 shots at the break, the RSL never gave up and its not often that our only losing rink proved to be the one that got us over the line. However, this was the case today down three shots with just our skip to come the RSL needed a hero. Up steps Bill Bradbury, no pressure only 15 team mates, most of the Division 5 team and a few spectators willing a good bowl. Bill did not let us, his team, or himself down by bowling a cracker of a bowl which took the jack away from Burden Park and planting it next to our bowl. To say there was excitement around the rink would be an understatement. Results: F Scicluna, G Dore, K Murray, K Hocking 27-17; J Big-
nold, J Vowles, R Chapman, N Fell 21-16; R Bligh, G Jones, W Brannan, M Watkinson 21-19; J Black, J Wylie, R Crawford, B Bradbury 13-27. Division 5 - Cranbourne RSL 82 defeated Mentone 67. In another polished display of bowling the RSL proved too strong for Mentone. Steve Hickson’s team ensuring the win with a 10 shot victory and John Spencer’s team did well winning by 7 shots. The team now have a little break on top of the ladder but they cannot relax for a minute as they face a tough away game against Hampton next week. Results: B Hall, J Carretero, K Hickson, S Hickson 24-14; L Meagher, M Macintyre, J Grant, J Spencer 20-13; I Maat, P Campion, M Hodges, Y vd Wees 22-20; K Currie, K Walker, M Bobetic, D Angee 16-20. Division 8 - Team 4 - Enjoyed
the day off again with a bye afte a walkover last week. Division 8 - Team 3 - Crambourne RSL 58 defeated Glen Waverley 37. The RSL had good win away against Glen Waverley. Percy Leake’s team on fire again with an impressive 16 shot victory and king of the rink honors. Peter Zimmerman’s team was in control of their game all day and went onto win by 5 shots. Results: G Payne, B Cook, P Leake 25-19; H Reefman, M Ryan, P Zimmerman 23-18. MIDWEEK - Pennant Round 8 Division 3 - Cranbourne RSL 67 defeated Murrumbeena 62. The RSL were headed for victory with one end to play, however our second last team dropped 6 shots on the last end and our last team on their final end were 3 down. Up stepped skip Karen Murray and with a great bowl under pressure got the
shot and victory was ours. What a great way to finish the game. Results: C Arlove, M Hodges Y vd Wees, K Murray 19-13; S Brobyn, D Muir, D Hut, J Spencer 2221; P Males, C Butler, H Rogers, R Chapman 16-18. Division 4 - Cranbourne RSL 74 defeated Keysborough 56.

T20 win for Seagulls By RUSSELL BENNETT THE boys from Tooradin will never get used to seeing former Seagulls champion Cal O’Hare in another local team’s colours, and on Tuesday night at Glover Reserve in Devon Meadows they had to face off against him. Now playing for Buckley Ridges in the Dandenong and District Cricket Association (DDCA), O’Hare was the marquee player for Devon Meadows in their Round 2 Kookaburra Cup Twenty20 clash with Tooradin. Playing on one of the most pristine surfaces in West Gippsland, Tooradin and Devon Meadows put on a real show with the visitors eventually snaring a four-wicket win in the 19th over.
The Gulls won the toss earlier in the day and sent the Panthers in to bat, with gun all-rounder O’Hare opening the innings with Daniel Steet (53). O’Hare’s was the first wicket to fall, when his great mates Aaron Avery and Chris Brennan ran him out for 33. Steet kicked on to bring up his half-century but as the innings wore on, the quality of Tooradin’s death bowling shone through. Young guns Matt Welsh and Dylan Sutton conceded just 17 and 26 runs respectively in their four-over allotments, while Avery claimed 1/24 from his four and Ross Douglas 2/33. Tooradin started its chase with Tom Hussey and Kane Latham at the top of the order. O’Hare removed Latham for 14 and took 2/36 for the innings but
Tooradin player-coach Aaron Avery celebrates the run out of his Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT great mate, Cal O Hare. 147895 Hussey (39) and Bradey Welsh (52) proved the difference-makers for the WGCA Premier outfit. For the most part, Hussey and Welsh played well within themselves with traditional cricket shots that - im-
peccably timed - still found the boundary. But the highlight of the innings was a towering six over the mid-wicket fence by Hussey off O’Hare’s bowling. The Seagulls advance to the next round of the knockout competition.
