JOHN Foy isn’t going to stand by and watch Casey Council dispossess and bulldoze his 34-acre patch of paradise in Narre Warren North. The 78-year-old has spent 35 years transforming paddocks and a small billabong into a home with a luscious habitat garden with hundreds of plantings and a nesting pond for varieties of waterbirds. “It feels like 300 kilometres from Melbourne,� he says as he surveys his tranquil plot. On 1 December, Mr Foy and neighbour Marlene Kane will address a Planning Panels Victoria hearing to object to Casey compulsorily acquiring his land at 191-195 Belgrave-Hallam Road. He sees it as a ‘David and battle against the Planning Goliath’ Minister who gave permission for the acquisition overlay’s exhibition - and Casey Council. Mr Foy was disgusted when he saw the council’s illustrated plans for the first time last week. for his land His house would make way for a road leading to sports fields, and fill in most of the duck lake.

He said the event itself wasn’t as personally cathartic as he thought it might be. It was heartening to see neighbours install home security as a result, but his family remained traumatised since the burglary after midnight on 13 August.

IT’S sad to say that Andrew Hartley and his family were far from unique after their home was invaded in 2016. What was unique was how Mr Hartley responded, fronting and organising a community crime prevention event in Sweeney Reserve less than a month later. Mr Hartley, who is Star News’s Person of the Year, became a symbol of residents’ defiance against a steeply rising wave of serious crime. The event, which drew 400 residents as well as MPs, police, Neighbourhood Watch members and experts on alarms, security doors and self-defence, was about informing households how to keep safe. “People aren’t aware of the extent of these crimes. It has become an epidemic and we don’t think it will happen to us,� Mr Hartley said. “Pay attention to what’s happening at your neighbour’s house as well as our own security.� When Mr Hartley launched the event, he wanted to avoid politics. But crime had soared 15 per cent per capita in Casey in 2016, it became the talk of the town and it got decidedly political. At the same time, Casey Council mayor Sam Aziz trumpeted a fivepoint law-and-order advocacy plan declaring his city was in “crisis�. Some of the council’s pleas - including for more police in Casey were heeded by the state government. Meanwhile, crime-reporting Facebook pages ramped up perceived danger levels. Many Casey suburbs had their own page. They became a hub for CCTV footage of strange cars outside homes, photos of stolen cars and law-and-or-
On that night, Mr Hartley was woken by the family dog. He ran out the front and saw a carload of youths drive away. An hour later, police found his wife’s handbag and car keys in the backyard - and only then it dawned that burglars had got inside the house. It was thought the intruders took off their shoes, walked through the rear unlocked door of the home garage, and jemmied an interior door to get inside. Gallingly, they must have walked past the sleeping Hartley children. The family’s innocence hasn’t been repaired, even after a therapeutic threeweek holiday in Bali and installing robust home security. “I’ve got the cameras, the alarms. It’s not only about the deterrence but making sure the family feels more comfortable,� Mr Hartley said. “We still want to move away.� Mr Hartley says there isn’t any one solution for the lawlessness, particularly by a certain cohort of youths. “It’s just a fact of life in the current environment. “All we can do is secure ourselves and look after our loved ones as best we can.� He hopes the event inspired others to look out for each other and “get back a sense of that community�. “Let’s now throw it over to the council and other organisations to run that event on a regular basis. “I showed that one person can run this on their own ... but it’s time for me to go back in my box.�

Riders jump in to help on trail By Cam Lucadou-Wells MOUNTAIN bike riders have pitched in to fix the extensive trail network in Lysterfield Park. Jumps and water drainage have been improved, gravel laid down and erosion fixed as part of the works. The works were undertaken by Parks Victoria and Lysterfield District Trail Riders (LDTR). LDTR fund-raised and offered thousands of hours of volunteering towards the project. The area’s chief ranger Darren Mitchell said the riders had been regular contributors, such as through monthly working bees. “It’s not unusual for around 10 (or) 12 volunteers to turn up to help maintain and upgrade the park. “They’re a fantastic group.” LDTR president Ben Reeves said he was partly motivated by giving back to the community and partly “wanting a better ride next time I go out”. “We’re incredibly lucky to have a natural oasis so close to the city.” The park’s 20 kilometres of mountain bike trails includes the State Mountain Bike Course used in the 2006 Commonwealth Games, as well as tracks for various skill levels.

Hobbler refused bail By Cam Lucadou-Wells A HALLAM man has been refused bail after allegedly slashing a drinking buddy with a large knife in a drunken and bloody fight. James Thokluel, who hobbled on a sore leg in the Dandenong Magistrates’ Court dock on 9 January, faced up to 20 years’ jail if found guilty of recklessly causing serious injury to the victim with an offensive weapon. His lawyer indicated he would contest the charge on the grounds of self-defence, given Thokluel had also received multiple machete wounds in the fight. The court was told Thokluel had fought with
his wife when he returned to his home with mates after a drinking session on 9 December. One of Thokluel’s mates told police the wife was being beaten and he intervened in the lounge room conflict. He claimed he was then punched to both sides of the head by Thokluel, and he retaliated with punches. Thokluel then allegedly collected up to three large kitchen knives and deeply slashed the top of the victim’s hand, resulting in severe blood loss. At the end of the fight, both Thokluel and the victim were bloodied, hospitalised and required plastic surgery. Thokluel was treated for stab
wounds to his shoulder. In July, Thokluel had been served with an interim intervention order allegedly due to verbally abusing his wife and intentionally self-harming with a knife during an argument. The defence submitted for Thokluel to be bailed to live at the Hallam home, vacated by his family who now live with the accused’s parents. Magistrate Pauline Spencer noted Thokluel had no prior criminal history, had worked as a volunteer for a foster-care charity and had strong family support. On the other hand, Ms Spencer said a history of family violence, abuse of alcohol and the use
of weapons were heightened risk factors for ongoing violence. “My concern is you’re an unacceptable risk of re-offending and endangering the safety of and interfering with witnesses in this case. “The challenge I have with (placing Thokluel on strict bail conditions) is these new allegations arise in circumstances in which there already was an intervention order in place. “So I can’t be confident that you’ll be able to follow bail conditions or court orders in the future.” Thokluel was remanded in custody to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 18 January.
Police in huge heroin find By Cam Lucadou-Wells MORE than $60,000 worth of heroin as well as knives, casino chips and cash have been allegedly seized by police from a car parked outside a Hallam hotel. Operations Response Unit police responded to reports that two men appeared to be trying to steal the car in the Princes Highway hotel’s car park just after midnight on 4 January. Police say a “large chunk of a tar-like substance” believed to be heroin was found on the car’s floor. Three knives, cash, about $1200 of casino chips and a large amount of suspectedly stolen cigarettes were also found in the car. A 39-year-old Cremorne man was arrested at the scene and charged with trafficking a commercial quantity and possessing a drug of dependence. He was remanded to face Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 5 January.

Cot that makes the difference THE silence that greeted Ava Torcasio’s entrance into the world still haunts her mother Lucia three years on. All had gone apparently smoothly during Ms Torcasio’s 40-week pregnancy. “We had heard our baby’s heartbeat the very day before, and we felt her move that evening before we went to sleep,” Ms Torcasio said. “Arriving at the hospital, we soon learnt that her beautiful soul had some-
how slipped away during the night.” Ava was still-born on 23 September 2013. “Her silence was the most haunting memory from that day, and it will stay with me forever,” her mother said. In memory of Ava’s third birthday, a $6000 cuddle cot was crowdfunded and donated to St John God of Hospital, Berwick by Ava’s family on 16 December. A cuddle cot is a cooling system designed for a small cot. It had allowed Ava’s family to spend a precious 24

hours with her after her birth. In that time, a family portrait was taken with Ava and moulds of her hands and feet were made. Her fingerprints were immortalised in jewellery. “If it weren’t for the cuddle cot, we would not have been able to spend those precious hours with our angel, and would not have had the opportunity to keep a little piece of her forever,” Ms Torcasio said. She says that without a cuddle cot, many deceased babies are taken to mor-

She hoped it would make a difference for some of the 2000 bereaved families of still-born families in Australia each year. “It’s important to us to get more people talking about still births as it’s such a taboo topic,” Ms Torcasio said. “And it shouldn’t be.” The fund-raising was supported by Australian non-profit group Bears Of Hope Pregnancy and Infant Loss Support .

Rates push on By Cam Lucadou-Wells CASEY councillors have provisionally endorsed a push towards raising rates above the two per cent rate cap this year. At a 20 December meeting, a majority of councillors endorsed a statement that the State Government-imposed cap would lead to a shortfall in council services and infrastructure. They supported council officers continuing to plan for a possible submission for a rates cap variation. Mayor Sam Aziz said no formal decision had been made on whether the council would apply for a variation. “However the government’s announcement that rate rises will be capped at two per cent leaves us few options if we are to maintain the current level of services and infrastructure. “We are facing a cumulative black-hole of around $200 million over the decade to 2025.” At the meeting, Crs Geoff Ablett, Steve Beardon, Rex Flannery and Tim Jackson dissented. “The previous council spent a significant amount of money on a submission for a rate rise exemption last year and it was knocked back,” Cr Jackson said. “I suspect it will be knocked back again.” Cr Jackson said he expected Casey’s soon-to-be-convened People’s Panel of 60 residents would also dismiss the need for a higher rates rise - even after being briefed by the council on its budget constraints. “I’ve been educated on the issue by the council too but I haven’t
changed my mind. “You shouldn’t be holding the residents to ransom and say if you don’t support a rates rise, these are the things you’re not going to get.” Cr Jackson said revenue could be alternatively raised by asset sales or loans. “I think the difficulty for residents is the council has been spruiking that the $125 million Bunjil Place will not cost you anything. “At the same time, it says it needs to increase rates over the cap to afford to do things.” Meanwhile, Cr Beardon refuted the claim that dissenting councillors were taking the “easy way out”. He said it would have been easier to go with the flow and vote with the majority of councillors. “I think people are already paying enough. “Until we are seeing a major
improvement in what they’re getting (from Casey), I won’t be asking them to pay more.” The rates cap has lowered from the 2.5 per cent cap in 2016, in which Casey Council made a failed bid for an exemption from the Essential Services Commission. Local government peak bodies have also been critical of the cap which matches CPI but is lower than the 2.15 per cent cap recommended by the ESC. Municipal Association of Victoria interim president Coral Ross accused the State Government of “double standards” for raising property taxes by 5.2 per cent and employee expenses by 7.8 per cent. Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins said the rate cap had ended a decade average of six per cent rate rises and made things “fairer” for ratepayers.

Casey looks to a panel of people By Victoria Stone-Meadows TARGETED residences from across the Casey municipality will receive letters from the mayor in the coming weeks inviting them to apply to be on a people’s panel. Casey Council is establishing the people’s panel to allow the community to directly inform the direction of infrastructure and community spending over the next four years. The panel will be made up of 60 residents from the City of Casey, selected by an independent consulting company, to give a representative cross-section of the community. The panel will meet four times in March and be presented with budgetary and cost balancing problems to solve that will inform council on what the community wants prioritised. While the recommendations and decisions put forward by the panel will be presented to councillors for consideration, the panel’s recommendations are not binding on council decisions. Mayfield ward Councillor Amanda Stapledon said the people’s panel would be a positive way for council to stay better connected to the community’s needs. “I think it’s a great thing and I think it’s important we consult with the community and have good strong voices to give us that feedback,” she said. “To some extent council is a people’s panel already, so this is an extension of that.” Cr Stapledon also said the panel would allow people to understand council processes better and dispel some of the misunderstandings about council. “The panel will allow people to feel more engaged and understand why things are done a certain way, and realise how they can help get things achieved.” However, while Cr Steve Beardon agreed that council was already a people’s panel, he saw this initiative as an unnecessary extra. “They have 11 people representing the people of Casey already called council-
lors,” he said. “I think consultation is good idea when it is done broadly by elected councillors and I’m more than happy to doorknock 100 houses and by 50 we would have the answers this panel will give.” Cr Beardon believes the new people’s panel is an expense to the people of Casey that could be put to better use. “The number of parks and playgrounds in Cranbourne alone that could benefit from the kind of investment immediately is huge; as well as graffiti removal, home and community care services etc. “The questions aren’t going to be as I would put them; just asking residents what they are prepared to give up to remain in the rate cap is a skewed way to put it to people. “I would rather we just ask people what they need and if they can afford a rate rise or if we can work harder to achieve goals within the current budget; people want us to work harder and smarter.” Council have engaged the services of Capire Consulting Group for an undisclosed amount to help select the panel and ensure all facets of the community are represented. Council has confirmed the data used to benchmark this cross-section will be a combination of Census data from 2011 and their own council records. “Our city is one of Victoria’s fastest growing and council needs to ensure it is meeting community needs and expectations within the tough financial environment caused by State Government imposed rate capping,” Casey Mayor Cr Aziz said. “Council and the community will have to make some tough choices about the level of services and infrastructure it wants.” Members of the people’s panel will be reimbursed $320 per person, a total of $19,200, for their involvement at the conclusion of the project. Those interested in being a member of the people’s panel that don’t receive a letter from council can apply to be part of the project on council’s website www.caseyconversations.com.au/peoplespanel.

I WRITE regarding the letter from John Glazebrook on Israel and multiculturism. Israel is the country and Jerusalem is The City of The King. It is a very beautiful city. The farmers have lush plump crops growing in the desert, exporting around the world. We could learn from their farming techniques. The doctors are the best, we could learn from their skills. The city has been built in the last 60 years, we could learn how they have done it. Planeloads of people trample the Holy City every day, we could learn from the minister for tourism. We could learn how a people nearly annihilated by Adolf Hitler has managed to rebuild lives and overcome the horror of war and the pain it inflicts on the mind. If Jerusalem agrees to be our sister city, we could learn a lot from them. I think the City of Casey is right to want to be a sister city. The smaller could learn from the mightier, Jerusalem. On multiculturism, Denmark found it did not work. When some migrants did not want to celebrate Christmas, refused to let seeing eye dogs in taxis and where forcing their laws and beliefs on the country. Then Denmark said enough. If you come to live in our beautiful country then you accept our laws and our way of life. We will not accept yours. Leave the old country behind and embrace the new. Kath Caldwell, Narre Warren North.

Anzacs of Jerusalem I WRITE in reply to John Glazebrook (News, 15 December). John, there are a number of very good reasons why Casey Council should develop a sister city in Israel. There are 200 Light Horsemen buried at Mt Scopus in Jerusalem overlooking the Mount of Olives. 2017 is the 100th Anniversary of the magnificent, miraculous and victorious charge at Beersheba by the 800 Light Horsemen, which in turn led to the liberation of Jerusalem after 1300 years of brutal muslim rule. In 1917, Australia, the youngest nation, played a very big part in the liberation of Jerusalem, one of the oldest nations (together with the Brits, Indians, our Kiwi cousins, and others). This led (some 30 years later) to the establishment of the nation of Israel by the United Nations on 29 November 1947. This returned to the Jewish people their ancient and traditional homeland. The Arab people were also offered a nation state by the UN, but declined the offer. The Nation State of Israel was proclaimed on 14 May 1948 and the very next day were invaded by five Arab countries. Somehow (miraculously) Israel survived. Again in 1967 Israel pre-empted an invasion by a number of Arab nations including Egypt, Syria and Jordan, and supported by other nations as well, including Pakistan, by launching their own attack (resulting in the Six Day War) and victory for Israel. Since then Israel has suffered a number of sporadic shelling attacks over the decades. Today Israel is the only democratic nation in that part of the world. Jews, Christians, Muslims and others all live and work there without fear of persecution - unlike all of Israel’s neighbour countries. Modern Australia (post 1788) has always been multi-ethnic (not multi-cultural), and has been built on the British system of law and tradition which is based on Judeo/Christian precepts and from which the Australian people have benefited greatly. It is without doubt the best country in the world to live in, as people from more than 100 different countries who have settled here readily testify. The continuous push by the “loony left” and other God-hating groups to destroy the traditional family and its core values has a lot to answer for - in regard to family violence, drug taking, gambling, excessive alcohol, etc. Philip Wright, Pakenham.

and soil dust and sawdust has been raining on us’, ‘That’s why we cough’. Is there a problem of air pollution and a health hazard to residents of O’Grady Road, Hallam? Perhaps not, it’s all imagined, that’s why nobody in the echelons of power has recognised this hazard. I appeal to the Member for Holt Anthony Byrne to investigate the complaints of the residents of O’Grady Road. Pressure should be exercised to eliminate the causes, if any, which has resulted in the protest. In all sincerity, Casey Council ought to ensure a healthy and safe environment is prevalent in this location. It might be pertinent to ask the question, as to how, side by side, with a housing development, industry which causes such heinous pollution was allowed to co-exist. After all who cares if a few people die of asthma related illness, or the entire atmosphere is saturated with dust which gets into the lungs and has long-term deleterious ef-
fects. Will the dwellers of this area have legal cases in later years for the damage done to their health? A water tanker will not dampen the dust. Only immediate action on the part of authorities who ought to take the blame, and effect remedial action. The lives of families, children, and the entire community is at stake - act now and prevent future legal action for compensation for death resulting from lung ailments. Milroy Martyn, Endeavour Hills.
Just chaos WHEN will Casey Council and VicRoads put their heads together and talk about putting traffic lights at the bottom of the intersection of Hallam Road and South Gippsland Highway? It’s chaos there every day of the week. D. Gardner, Hampton Park.

A stabbing pain probed
Berwick Toyota
We have
By Cam Lucadou-Wells POLICE have released images as part of an investigation into the stabbing of a Berwick man in Noble Park in October. The 24-year-old sustained life-threatening injuries after being stabbed several times walking to a party with four friends in Ian Street on Saturday 1 October about 4am. The group were approached and threatened by two males, who got out of a 1998 dark-coloured Holden Commodore sedan with silver rims. One of the males was armed with a knife. During an altercation, the victim was stabbed to the abdomen and upper leg. He has since been released from hospital. The attackers fled on foot along Mons Parade and drove off in the Commodore. They were described as of African appearance and in their twenties. Greater Dandenong CIU detectives have released an image of a man they believe can assist with their investigation. A photo of a Commodore believed to be similar to the car involved in the attack has also been released. Police have appealed for help from the large group of witnesses to the attack as well as for an anonymous Crime Stoppers caller, who provided information, to call them back.

A MAN with a lazy eye is wanted by police after a 12-year-old girl was allegedly sexually assaulted at Fountain Gate shopping centre. Greater Dandenong Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team detectives say the girl, in company with a 13-year-old girl, had been searching for a missing bag at the shopping centre about 1.30pm on 26 November. The 13-year-old was allegedly stalked by a man as she walked around a venue at the shopping centre. When she ran off, the man allegedly approached and sexually assaulted the 12-year-old girl, then walked away. Victoria Police have released CCTV and a facial image of a man they believe can help with their inquiries. He is described as of South American appearance, aged in his thirties with a medium build, tanned skin, unshaven and a lazy eye. The man was wearing a red and white hat, dark-coloured hoodie with white writing on the front, dark-coloured pants and runners.

Tree of hope By Victoria Stone-Meadows THE inaugural Casey Cardinia Library Corporation’s (CCLC) ‘Forgiving Tree’ initiative delivered a boon for local charities in the lead up to Christmas. In its first year ever, the initiative of the library to forgive book fines and other fees in exchange for a donation to the libraries’ ‘Forgiving Tree’ raised More than $15,000 for local charities. Each of the libraries under the CCLC banner had a chosen local charity they partnered with to pass on the community’s donations so those less fortunate could enjoy a bountiful Christmas. Cranbourne Library parented with the Cranbourne Information and Support Service (CISS) who provide services and referrals to the Cranbourne community. Leanne Petrides from CISS said she was overwhelmed with the support from the library and the community and was amazed to still be receiving donations into January. The success of the program wasn’t the only surprise as the donations made to local charities through the Forgiving Tree were more than the fines and fees that were forgiven. Furthermore, almost $18,000 worth of lost items were returned and just over $8000 worth of fines and fees were paid back rather than forgiven for a donation. For the month of December, Forgiving Trees were erected in Cranbourne, Doveton, Emer-

CEO Casey Cardinia Libraries Chris Buckingham said while the success of the initiative was a surprise, he knew the community would come together for such a program. “We knew that setting up the Forgiving Trees in our libraries was the right thing to do,” he said. “The heart-warming response from our wonderfully

diverse community was inspiring.” The fervour with which the community embraced the program has delighted both library and charity staff and made a difference to many families in the Casey and Cardinia regions. “We are very grateful to all the people and partners who gave so much throughout December,” he said. “Together we have made a positive difference in the lives of hundreds of local families at this special time of year.”
Luck’s in for uni ground-breaker By Victoria Stone-Meadows A LUCKY student from Korumburra has been awarded a $5000 scholarship and will be one of the first to study at Federation University’s brand new Berwick Campus. Nicholas Mann accepted an offer from the university to study a Bachelor of Business at the campus when the doors officially open in the next few months. Nicholas has led a colourful life in his time as school captain at Korumburra Secondary College, including reforming the school’s student representative council, playing drums in the school band and working as umpire and assistant coach of the local hockey team. Nicholas managed to complete his Year 12 studies despite living with Dysgraphia, a disability affecting his ability to handwrite notes. As such, this scholarship has allowed Nicholas to purchase a new laptop so his University work will be more accessible and he can enjoy his time learning. Nicholas said the scholarship money will mean he can replace his old laptop and get on with his degree. “My current laptop is five years old and is on its last legs,” he said. “It was a real challenge using it during VCE. It couldn’t survive the amount of study I can expect at FedUni.” He also said the scholarship would mean a lot to him, being able to focus on his learning and not have to look for part time work to be able to get the most out of studies.
Nicholas Mann from Korumburra has received a scholarship and will be one of the first students to undertake study at the new Berwick Campus of Federation University. Picture: CONTRIBUTED “I’m so grateful to Federation University Australia,” he said. “I don’t have to stress about finding more money as I now have the means and the time to buy a computer that will cope with the demands of my studies.”
FedUni will provide 15 courses at the current Monash University Berwick Campus under a deal announced in July 2016. FedUni will progressively move into the Berwick Campus and will take full control of the site in 2018.

Plan for business centre By Victoria Stone-Meadows THE City of Casey is set to become home to another thriving business centre, with property development company MAB buying almost 100 acres of land in Clyde North. The 38-hectare plot of land on the corner of BerwickCranbourne and Thompsons Roads will be the future home of a commercial, retail and industrial precinct. This development by MAB, owned by Melbournebased property magnates Michael and Andrew Buxton, will be the third business centre in the municipality to be developed by the company.
The new site will house a variety of retail spaces, a service station and over 70 industrial lots from 1000 square metres in size. MAB Business Parks Director Tony Blazevic said the new development would aim to create local jobs as well as attract small business in the area. “The development will deliver local jobs and take advantage of this unique opportunity to create a dynamic precinct in one of Australia’s fastest growing municipalities,” he said. “The City of Casey is experiencing rapid population
growth and an expanding economy so MAB is excited to make another investment in the region,” he said. A representative of MAB said the completion dates for the project were staggered and stage one of the build would be completed in the third quarter of 2018. The entire project is anticipated to have a lifespan of five years before the entire business park is open and operational. “We have acquired the site and are in preliminary design, authority negotiations and marketing stages,” the spokesperson said.

Splashdown in Casey By Victoria Stone-Meadows SWIMMING pool facilities in Casey got slammed over the weekend of 7 and 8 January when temperatures in the region reached blistering figures in the high thirties. Thousands of people flocked to swimming pools in Casey to try to beat the heat and many of the facilities were pushed to capacity due to the influx of people. YMCA Area Manager, Matt Spencer said attendance at the pools across Casey were the highest on record. “All three Casey pools had a combined total of 8394 through the doors,” he said. “This is the most we’ve seen in quite a long time.” However, some Casey residents trying to beat the heat had to be turned
away from the centres when the swimmer to lifeguard ratio at the pools reached its maximum allowance. Between about 2pm until about 5.30pm at Casey RACE, patrons were turned away from the door and the facility managers had to implement a one-in, one-out system. Casey ARC faced similar problems later in the day when capacity was reached at the centre at about 3.30pm. Doveton Pool in the Park did not officially reach capacity with about 600 people attending at the busiest point of the day with more coming through the gate. A spokesperson from the YMCA said while the facilities did not have official capacity numbers, they are under strict guidelines to maintain a safe lifeguard to patron ratio.
Casey RACE was filled to capacity as the summer heatwave hit the region. 139508

QUOTES OF THE YEAR “I lost something that means a lot to me in life and it really f***in hurt!”
“Definitely think through the consequences - before you act, not after.” - Heidi Samason, aunt of 17-year-old Dru Peterson who died after crashing an allegedly stolen car with five passengers on Narre Warren-Cranbourne Road on 5 November.

“Multiculturalism is divisive.” - Casey councillor and Rise Up Australia member Rosalie Crestani, Casey Council meeting, 6 December.
“He knows I’ll raise this stupid campaign with him and I’ll be demanding changes.” - La Trobe MP Jason Wood with strong feedback for Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull after Mr Wood narrowly reclaimed his seat in July’s federal election.
“We try to specialise in the out-of-theordinary.” - Barden-Steeldeck Industries managing director Michael Shacklock on constructing Bunjil Place’s unique winged roof.
AT times in 2016, it seemed Casey’s forthright mayor Sam Aziz had declared war on everything. His targets included big boys such as VicRoads over cleaning up graffitied noise walls, and the State Government over law-and-order and rate-capping. But in the frenzied weeks before November’s council election, he turned his aggressive rhetoric against local players - a risky tactic for a councillor seeking re-election. There was his public slamdunking of Casey Basketball Association and its president, accusing them of blackmail over their campaign against court fee rises. He crossed swords with a Berwick real estate agent for its claims of property rate rises, and made sinister inferences against a Muslim doctor and game hunter’s Facebook profile picture.
He had Facebook spats against an election candidate that accused him of being anti-Muslim, an organiser of a crime prevention forum as well as labelling a member of Casey Against Racism a “hypocrite” for trying to broker a deal over the proposed Narre Warren North mosque. “My dialogue will be with the leaders of the Islamic community ... who won’t insult my intelligence by mounting vicious attacks against me during an election campaign, then come crawling when they are defeated so comprehensively,” Cr Aziz posted about the latter. It was fair to say Cr Aziz’s name was never far from the headlines. In the meantime, Cr Aziz was comfortably re-elected by voters though with a 5 per cent dent to his primaries. He was also endorsed by councillors for a second consecutive mayoral term in December, receiv-
ing praise for his effectiveness and leadership such as by assigning portfolios to councillors. The feather in his cap was the law-and-order campaign, which he credited for securing 20 extra cops in the municipality last year with further officers expected next year. During that time, Casey’s flag was controversially flown at halfmast to show, as Cr Aziz describes, its citizens were in “distress” due to rising levels of serious crime such as home invasions. Cr Aziz triumphantly posted on Facebook after the promised extra police: “For all the arm chair commentators who accused me of being political ... pardon the pun but: Cop that! It worked!” For this year’s term, the mayor has nominated his priorities - economic development, community safety and cultural harmony. That last area will be certainly be one to watch in 2017.
POLICE numbers featured prominently throughout the pages of the Cranbourne News in 2016 but it was in September that the issue gained major traction. Ron Iddles, Police Association of Victoria secretary, labelled the understaffing of Police in the Cranbourne and surrounding areas a ‘crisis’. The Victoria Police union launched a tag line: ‘There aren’t enough police in the South-East’ in a bid to drum up support for more officers to be stationed here. The “crisis” claim by the police union came as the Endeavour Hills police station closed its front counter on weekend nights in what was intended to be a month long trial. In October, the police station at Endeavour Hills extended the trial before it is set to reviewed in February. At the time of announcement of changes to Endeavour Hills police station and the policing crisis coming a to a head, Victoria Police made promises to address crime rises in 2017. Police spokesperson at the time, Ben Radisich, said Victoria Police provided a 24-hour response to the Casey community. At the same time, the State Government had recently announced an additional 300 frontline police members for the growth area of Cranbourne and surrounds. It is expected the new police officers will be hitting the streets in 2017 to address the crisis that is policing in Melbourne’s south-eastern suburbs.

2016 – THE YEAR THAT WAS
NEWSMAKERS
Brazen thieves just ran rampant
QUOTES OF THE YEAR “It’s too fine to stop it. You open up the roller door and it goes through the factory.”
By Victoria Stone-Meadows
- Industrial chemist Zebolitar Prvulovic on swarms of dust from the O’Grady Road industrial zone in Hallam.
“Who knows what’s going to happen? It’s in the lap of Con.” - Narre Warren North resident John Foy referring to Planning Panels Victoria member Con Tsotsoros - who was advising whether Casey Council could compulsorily acquire Mr Foy’s 34-acre home.
“It drives beautifully. If I had it as a young boy, imagine the girls I would have had.” - Akoonah Park Mens Shed member Maurice Hall on his eye-turning 1965 Mustang coupe.
“I had a fierce campaign run against me with state-wide negative coverage and ridiculous accusations, but the voters paid attention to the scoreboard.” - Casey mayor Sam Aziz after being reelected in October.
“We have children who simply can’t think beyond themselves.” - Dandenong-Cranbourne RSL president John Wells after a monkey bike rider disrupted a Remembrance Day service at Endeavour Hills.
South East Skids drivers were crushed by their penalties.
Out of control By Cam Lucadou-Wells FOR some of the 41 charged South East Skids hoons, it ended with tears. The most flagrant of the drivers got jail, some got community corrections orders but what really stung was the loss of their beloved vehicles. By order of Dandenong Magistrates’ Court, they were to be impounded and crushed. As one of the drivers put it: “I lost something that means a lot to me in life and it really f***in hurt!” Mind you, he had nearly killed a spectator as his Falcon XR6 ute swung into the crowd during a series of circular burnouts in a
Dandenong South industrial estate in September 2015. But for his low intellectual development and low self-esteem, he would have been jailed. One of the older accuseds - a middle-aged man - sobbed and cried out “No!” when the court heard that his $100,000 BMW could possibly be crushed. The evidence couldn’t have been more clear. In every case, the drivers’ antics - and their vehicles’ number plates - had been captured on sets of CCTV stationed at the Licola Crescent “turnaround bowl”. The footage showed cars and drivers lining up for the chance to furiously smoke their tyres and lose traction in a tight ring
of about 100 spectators, with no barriers between people and the machines. In the worst cases, two or more cars would be wildly skidding in unison inside the bowl. Sometimes passengers would be perched out of the windows, at other times spectators nonchalantly walked into the bowl among the tractionless vehicles. The upshot of Operation Regarder, which netted the long line of hoons, was an absolute success for Victoria Police. The South East Skids meets’ long-standing dangers were at last brought to a screaming halt not least because of the threat of drivers permanently losing their cars.
WHILE home invasions and aggravated burglaries felt like par for the course in Casey in 2016, one story from March this year of a family who lost precious memories to a group of thieves stands above the rest. Entering the Berwick home through a broken doggy door, this gang of youths, allegedly including members as young as 12 years old, took presents, cards filled with money and vouchers, mobile phones, wallets, keys, a sound system, a computer, alcohol and most importantly a Nikon digital camera. It was the photos and video on the camera of the loving couple renewing their wedding vows from 20 February that left the family bereft. It was the bold and brazen break-in, which occurred in the early hours of Sunday, around 5.30am to 6am, while the family were asleep, which bothers the Berwick parents the most. The story was exactly as Casey police have been telling it for several months and continues to tell today. Keys left in the inside the door lock, handbags hanging up in the kitchen and valuables sprawled across the table. But due to the day’s events, the valuables stolen totalled more than $5000, and the footage and photos captured on their Nikon digital camera were irreplaceable. As later discovered, this house was one of eight that were broken into and burgled in a 24-hour period with thieves going from home to home and ransacking them for valuables. Police have continued to issue the same warning to people throughout the year, to keep keys and valuables out of plain sight in the home and be sure you have up-to-date security measures.

2016 – THE YEAR THAT WAS
Protesters chant outside Casey Civic Centre prior to councillors unanimously rejecting the proposed mosque 153393 Picture: GARY SISSONS
Mosque rocked the world By Cam Lucadou-Wells THIS issue won’t be going away in 2017. In April, watched by a packed and fiery public gallery, Casey Council unanimously rejected a proposed Narre Warren North mosque with a 16-metre tall minaret and 450 worshippers. The official reasons were planning grounds - amenity, traffic flows, inadequate parking, noise pollution and the area’s undeniable scenic qualities. At the meeting, councillor and Rise Up Australia member Rosalie Crestani undercut the message holding up posters behind her back such as: “Narre Warren North residents said to me: radicalisation and terrorism risks of Islamic mosques should be (considered) in decision making”. She later explained she hadn’t been
allowed to raise such issues during the meeting. More than 1000 formal objections and the pro-environment Save the Casey Foothills Association backed the council’s stance. The issue also spawned an anti-Muslim Facebook group Stop the Mosque in Narre Warren that had 15,000-plus likes. Mosque proponent Saarban Islamic Trust as well as a group Casey Against Racism were convinced that there were more than just planning grounds behind it. Saarban spokesman Zain Shah said at the time: “The council was initially in favour, then details leaked out of the council especially from this lady (Cr Crestani). “It’s just xenophobia.” Meanwhile, Saarban is set to apply

Police stopped people entering, as there was no more room. 153393 for a scaled-down, modern-style mosque on the same site at 365-367 BelgraveHallam Road in 2017. The early indications are that key opponents remain opposed to a mosque on that site.
NEWSMAKERS
An unjust scheme struck By Victoria Stone-Meadows THE proposed Market Lane Special Charge Scheme landed the Casey City Council in hot water after it was found the council acted unjustly - and in part illegally. In June this year, the council were found to have been acting in an underhanded way when they raised the rates of the charge scheme in a closed council meeting without notifying residents. The 37 affected residents were not given prior notice or the opportunity to object to the rise in rate from 4.25 per cent to 7.5 per cent. Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins said a monitor would be appointed for up to 12 weeks to examine and oversee governance at Casey. With fears the move would see the Casey Council go the way of Geelong City Council, the monitor was appointed to make sure Casey Council operated justly and within
the bounds of the law. The news came through in September that State-appointed monitor, Bill Jaboor, concluded his oversight of the Casey Council earlier than expected. His report found that the Casey Council took effective action to implement the Ombudsman’s recommendations. Those recommendations included reducing a 1.5 per cent ‘administration surcharge’ to one per cent because it exceeded the legal limit and refunding the interest charged above 4.25 per cent, and releasing all minutes and documents relating to the closed meeting. Mr Jaboor’s report found that Casey Council had worked to improve the decision-making processes it followed when considering to close council meetings to the public and developed a consistent policy on community consultation in special charge schemes.

A year of historic tumult By Victoria Stone-Meadows THE historic Hampton Park School house had a tumultuous year in 2016, where it looked like it might be knocked down before being resurrected in phoenix-like fashion. In May 2016, the schoolhouse from 1922 came under threat of being demolished as the school went under a $5.7 million redevelopment. One plan was to move the building as far as the old cheese factory in Berwick to keep it safe after a large following on Facebook prompted council to do something to save the his-
toric school hall. Other places for relocation that were considered were the Marjorie Eastick Reserve and the Cairns Road Recreation Reserve. While it seemed a remote possibility back in May, the then newly-established Hampton Park Men’s Shed also showed interest in utilising the historic building. It wasn’t until June that the City of Casey council seriously considered and accepted the application by the men’s shed to use the old school building. Councillors Wayne Smith
UNIVERSITY PATHWAYS AVAILABLE
and Damien Rosario were so solidly behind the idea they were willing to pay the relocation costs of the building to Marjorie Eastick Reserve themselves. At its meeting on Tuesday 21 June, council resolved to accept an offer from the Department of Education and Training (DET) to fund the relocation of the heritage school house to Council land in Marjorie Eastick Reserve, Hampton Park. The building was gifted to the council and plans for its relocation were quickly drawn up, with an expected relocation date in early 2017.

THE highly anticipated neighbourhood park at Timbertop Estate, Officer is set to open this month so residents can enjoy it in the warmer weather. Hicks Reserve, named after the former owners of the land, commenced construction earlier this year and is now near completion with the official ribbon cutting to take place on Friday 20 January at 10am. From the 1800s Timbertop’s land was farmed by the Hicks family, who were early pioneers in the Officer area. The land was used for dairy farming, apple orchards and beef cattle. In 2003 Parklea purchased the land from the Hicks family, with Timbertop Estate launching in 2012. Timbertop is now home to around 700 people, with over 250 homes occupied. Members of the Hicks family will be the guests of honour at the opening

Berwick clinic Sun Patrol.
Hole in ozone theory rejected IS the high UV index in Australia due to an ‘ozone hole’ ? In a word ‘no’ it is not, according to Mike Inskip at Sun Patrol. “The ‘UV index’ is a measure of the amount of skin cancer causing ultraviolet radiation that reaches the earth’s surface,“ said Mr Inskip.
“The UV index is definitely higher in an Australian summer than at an equivalent latitude in the northern hemisphere during their summer. But this is not due to the Antarctic ‘ozone hole’. “This ozone hole certainly exists but it only affects Antarctica and the areas of the southern ocean immediately around this continent. It has
never affected Australia. We are simply too far north.“ Mr Inskip said the UV index in Australia was higher because of the elliptical orbit of the earth around the sun brings the southern hemisphere five million kilometres closer to the sun in summer compared to the northern hemisphere
in summer. “It’s simple astrophysics. So remember to cover up this summer.“ The Sun Patrol Skin Cancer Clinic is at 48 Van Der Haar Avenue, Berwick. For more information, visit www.sunpatrolscc.com.au or call 9769 3358.

Destanee in the making By Nick Creely A STAR was born on 3 January, with 16-year-old Narre Warren tennis ace Destanee Aiava becoming the first player born this century to win a WTA main-draw match. When the News talked to Destanee for the first time way back in 2012, the then 12-year-old spoke about the goal of becoming the “world number one”. And now Destanee, in 2017, is turning heads with her natural flair with the racket, and her powerful build and natural poise are not going unnoticed. In the match on 3 January, in front of a crowd exceeding 2000 people, Destanee came up against American Bethanie Mattek-Sands, and downed the Olympic doubles gold medallist and revered singles player in a threeset victory 2-6, 6-3 and 6-4. In fact, the game itself was met with some disruptions, with heavy rain the night before forcing play to be suspended. But when she resumed, it was almost as if a switch-flicked, and from there, Australia saw the talent that has been working behind closed doors to achieve her ultimate goal - being world number one. Not many people watching her strut her stuff with her imposing serve would have given her much of a chance against a woman double her age, Currently ranked 387th in the world, the win was simply stunning, with many people not even knowing who the young star was. But now they do. Immediately after the win, Destanee spoke about the game, and the qui-

etly spoken individual from the southeastern suburbs of Melbourne talked about the challenges of the match, and her gratitude to be in this position, all with a beaming smile across her face. “I haven’t really looked at my phone since the end of the match, I’ve mainly just talked to my Mum, and she just said good job, and then took me to the practice court after,” she chuckled. “I struggled a bit at the end but I got through it - a lot of things were
actually going through my head, I was pretty nervous playing in front of that many people - it was the biggest crowd I’ve ever played in front of. “I was a bit inconsistent through the match, but it feels pretty good to be known and supported by so many different people - I just want to go out there and enjoy the experience. “When I walk in its just crazy, there are people that I have seen on TV before just there and it’s crazy.”
But Destanee’s dream run came to an end the following day, going down fighting 6-4, 6-3 to world number nine Svetlana Kuznetsova, bowing out in 70 minutes. But what’s next for the prodigious young talent? Well she has qualified as one of seven wildcard entries for next week’s Australian Open, after winning the 2016 18/U Australian Championship, and will now become the only player
born in 2000 or later to participate in the main draw of a Grand Slam tournament. It has taken Destanee just four years since stating she wants to become the “world number one”, to playing on one of the world’s biggest stages, so in another four years, perhaps she will be able to finally achieve her ultimate goal if not before.
Rangers floored by Lightning strike By Nick Creely THE Dandenong Rangers have been stunned, going down 80-73 to bottomside Adelaide Lightning at home on Sunday afternoon. Coming into the round, the Lightning were winless, while the Rangers were flying, but the tables were turned in an exquisite display in front of a strong Dandenong crowd. Unforced turnovers and fouls were the downfall for the Rangers, who looked lacklustre from the start of the match, and despite a fightback later in the game, could not find a way to get the points. Tayla Roberts was phenomenal for the Lightning, finishing with 21 points and nine rebounds, while Anneli Maley (16 points, nine rebounds) was huge off the bench. For the Rangers, consistent performer Sara Blicavs led points with 19, while Ally Malott had a strong game with 18 points and 8 rebounds. Co-captain Steph Cumming was kept quiet but still contributed with 12 points, while Natalie Novosel was handy off the bench. Rangers coach Larissa Anderson was furious at the lack of intensity among the group, but stressed that the group must re-focus on the next task at hand. “I’m really, really disappointed -
Rangers star Ally Malott was a shining light in the tough loss to Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Adelaide. 163585 to be honest it was inexcusable how we came out - I have no doubt that us as a coaching staff will analyse every single sub and the vision,” she said. “At the end of the day, our intensity wasn’t there and we weren’t doing anything - in patches we had great intensity, but the amount of silly, unforced mistakes and fouls were terrible - we have to try and leave it behind us. “Credit to Adelaide, they have had a fantastic weekend, and they had a great win last night and they played well against us. We clearly needed a break over Christmas, but that’s the risk, and I
think we came out a little bit scratchy. “I’m disappointed at how flat we were but we have to bounce back next week against the Boomers, in a big game for the club.” Saturday 14 January will mark with 25th anniversary of the Dandenong Rangers, and will play the Melbourne Boomers in a crucial match in the context of the season. Many past Rangers' champions will be in attendance for the match, with the appearance of legendary basketballer Penny Taylor to be the marquee event of the celebrations.

Cricket
Nailbiting end to epic game By Nick Creely DDCA TURF 1 REVIEW - ROUND 1 REPLAY (One-dayer) IT was destined to be the game of the round for a reason, and the epic finish that unfolded at Casey Fields could have serious ramifications at the end of the season. With both teams sitting inside the four coming into the round, and facing off against their next door neighbours, the tensions were high in the searing sun. And Cranbourne skipper Steven Spoljaric did not hesitate to bat first and make Berwick chase them. But batting was difficult, and the Eagles scraped away, somehow managing 135 off 39.1 overs. Bears skipper Jarrod Goodes (4/18) continued his stellar season, and picked up the crucial wicket of Matt Chasemore at a vital part of the innings. With the pressure on, the Bears started in solid fashion, putting on 56 for the first wicket, before a mini collapse in the middle-order saw them sitting at an uncomfortable 6/110, still 26 runs short of victory. And in the first ball of the very last over of the match, and with just six to win and one wicket in hand, Jack Phillips was run out in stunning fashion for a duck, and in the process, dented their top-four hopes. In other matches, Heinz-Southern Districts have emerged victorious, in a highly impressive all-round display against the revered Springvale South. Gun Cobras all-rounder Michael Davies (93 not out)) played a splendid knock that lifted them to an imposing 6/187 off 40 overs.
But the Bloods succumbed to some elite pressure bowling, losing four wickets for not many, as the bowling quartet of Kaushalya Weeraratne (2/13), Mark Davies (2/17), Paul Stockdale (2/19) and Chadwick Van Estrop (3/28) took complete control. The break has done little in reversing the fortunes of Narre Warren, with the Dingley finally breaking through for a well-deserved victory at Sweeney Reserve. Sent in to bat, the Magpies, through reliable performer Janaka Liyanabadalge (35), scratched together 117 all-out, before the Dingoes chased it down with plenty of overs to spare, and five wickets left in the shed. Matthew Hague (44) and Christo Otto (39 not out) were the stars for the Dingoes. North Dandenong have bounced back from a lacklustre month before Christmas, starting the year with a bang, knocking off a persistent Parkfield unit at home. Skipper Jurgen Andersen elected to bat, and with some aggression and chancy batting, were able to make a highly competitive 186 off 39 overs, but were bowled out in the process. And with the bat, the Bears gave them an almighty scare, going from 6/61 to almost pinching a remarkable victory. But the class of Jurgen Andersen (4/36) shone through, as he took the last two wickets of the match to keep his side’s faint finals hopes alive. Mordialloc has dismantled the highly fancied Buckley Ridges, and in the process, have edged its way into the top four. Ian Daniel backed up his brutal century just before Christmas with a bril-

In response, the Bucks just couldn’t find their groove, with Nick Connellan (4/24) and champion seamer Stuart Squires (3/29) dismantling them with pressure.
Ladder leaders Hallam-Kalora Park have shown no mercy, annihilating a competitive Dandenong West line-up to the tune of eight wickets at Greaves Reserve. Winning the toss and batting, the Bulls could only muster up 8/118 off
40 overs, with skipper Steven Gilmour (3/36) the pick of the bowlers. And the Hawks wasted little time in knocking down the total, with Leigh Booth (83) playing a virtual lone hand, as they took the points in the space of 22 overs.
Jordan's hungry for runs
Emerging star Jordan Wyatt relished last week's hot conditions. Picture: CRICKET VICTORIA contain the opposition to 216 off their 50 overs. The batting product, hailing from Drouin, has been around the blocks after a stint at Melbourne, Casey-South Melbourne, his home club in Drouin, and now finally back at the Swans, and said that the appetite and desire to win will never diminish. “I’ve always had the hunger to make runs - I just love it and that’s the best part of this sport,” he told the News. “There is not much better feeling in this sport when you play an innings that helps get your team over the line - my last two innings have been an awesome feeling. "It was an awesome feeling to contribute in a winning side I’m all about the team and how it goes, and obviously individual performances are rewarding, but it’s team first for me - you ask anyone in our team and we

JORDAN Wyatt is the kind of cricketer that never shies away from the big moments, and amidst the positivity emanating from Casey-South Melbourne this season in a number of different areas, a match-winning star has emerged from the shadows. Just before Christmas, Wyatt oversaw his Swans chase down 330 against the Monash Tigers, a side renowned for its bowling talent, as he struck a patient and well-timed 92, just as it looked like they were running out of legs. To prove this was no fluke, Wyatt then backed it up on Saturday against Melbourne University, striking a fabulous 78 off 77 balls in 38-degree heat, as his Swans won their fourth game in a row and are now charging towards a shock finals' appearance. In this particular game, the Swans somehow escaped with yet another stunning victory, chasing down 216 in the very last over. There were other solid contributors with the blade too, with Luke Manders (22), Devin Pollock (29), Lachlan Sperling (23) and Brendan Rose (21) chiming in with valuable runs. Earlier in the match, despite the searing heat at the picturesque University oval, the Swans bowlers toiled hard, with Brendan Rose (4/42), Nathan Lambden (3/39) and Lachlan Sperling (2/30) helping them
are all the same.” Wyatt also said that he slightly changed his approach after an inconsistent start to the season, and now believes that will hold him in good stead heading into a tough four game block. “I spoke to BK (Brian Keogh) during the week, and he told me to take about 20 balls until I start really getting aggressive - it wasn’t really working for me in the Twenty20s before Christmas,” he said. “I sort of did that on the weekend and it worked again, so I’m giving myself some time before accelerating - With the Twenty20s I had to try and accelerate quicker, and now looking back I wish I had my time again, one day it comes off in that format and others it doesn’t.” With the prospect of a finals' berth for the young Swans, Wyatt said the excitement is plain to see, but stresses the hard work comes now. “We aren’t getting ahead of ourselves, because with a young group it can be a potential downfall, so we are looking just one week at a time, and try to consolidate our position - we want to play a final, that’s why we play the sport - we’re in a good position but a lot of hard work is to come,” he said. The Swans tackle FitzroyDoncaster in a two-dayer at Casey Fields on Saturday from 11am, in what looms as a potentially season-defining clash in their finals' hopes.

New year off with a bang! By David Nagel NEW Year’s fireworks have continued in West Gippsland cricket with some stunning individual performances reverberating around the association on Saturday. A brilliant century from Kooweerup star Ben Spicer (108) against his former club Pakenham Upper/Toomuc was the highlight of the top-flight Premier Division, but it was in District and SubDistrict where the fuse was well and truly lit. Cardinia Sub-District captain Brad Remy (149) took just 37 balls to rack up an amazing century against Gembrook, kicking on to his final total off just 52 balls as the Bulls registered an impressive 9/339 in 40 overs. Remy has been in terrific form this season, with ‘starts’ of 89, 97, 50 and 90 finally turned into a big one. Brookers captain Cam Williams (127 not out) returned fire, but his 13 boundaries and three sixes saw his side fall 71 runs short of victory. Catani’s Mitch Gregson (7/10 off 7.1 overs) made sure the Sub-District highlight reel kept rolling with a dominant display against Pakenham, while Tooradin opener Kane Latham (150 not out) put his brand-new bat to good use with a whirlwind century against Cranbourne Meadows in the District Division. This was the first time that Latham had taken his ‘Icon’ bat to the crease - an association that is certainly off to a flying start! The Premier Division boys locked horns in a round that looked largely predictable on paper, with the powerhouse teams at the top taking on the stragglers of the competition. And most games went according to plan, with Merinda Park (7/200cc) pulling off the only surprise of the round with a resounding victory over Cardinia (157). Former Bulls’ coach Simon Parrott (86) put his old club to the sword, smashing his highest score for the Cobras in an innings that lasted just 90 balls. Leigh Patterson (4/31 off 6) was also impressive for the Cobras who -after being winless after round five - have now won three of their four to be one of the form teams in the competition. A win against Tooradin this week will see the Cobras claw their way back to within two games of the top four. Skipper Danny Diwell has been impressed with the attitude of his side, even in the midst of their poor start to the season. “There were never any bad attitudes within the club, everyone stayed positive and we’re just en-
Crunch…the brutality of Ben Spicer’s century put Kooweerup in the box seat against Pakenham Upper/Toomuc. 163547 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS joying playing cricket together,” Diwell said. “We’ve got some tough challenges ahead but we’re coming off a win, we’ve got a fair degree of confidence, and if we can reproduce our form from last week we’ll give the next two weeks (Tooradin and Kooweerup) a real shake. We’ve made life difficult for ourselves but I couldn’t be prouder of the character the boys have shown.” In other games, Tom Hussey (59) scored his 22nd fifty in Tooradin colours, sitting proudly alongside his eight tons, as the Seagulls brushed aside Upper Beaconsfield. And at Kooweerup, Spicer’s second century of the season led the demons to a soft victory over the struggling Yabbies. The hard-hitting number three has now made 443 runs for the season, at an average of 88, giving the Demons a new intimidating force at the
top of the order. And finally, the move of Jason Williams (78) to the top of the order has worked out perfectly for Pakenham, the graceful right-hander showing his class in the Lions’ 60-tun win over Emerald. Lions’ skipper Dom Paynter said Williams was primed for a big innings against the Bombers. “He had a great finish to 2016, he’s in good nick and had a good week on the track and was pretty keen to do the job,” Paynter said. “He wanted to do it, he wanted to take on the challenge of facing the new ball and an innings like that will hold him in good stead for the rest of the season.” The Lions travel to Cardinia this Saturday in the Round 10 blockbuster.
Racing club to host a big night for kids By David Nagel THE Pakenham Racing Club will kick off the new year in style by hosting the hugely popular Cardinia Shire Kids Night Out at Racing.com Park on Thursday 19 January. The PRC - still glowing after the enormous success of its first Saturday metropolitan-standard Pakenham Cup meeting in early December will dedicate the night to the kids, with plenty of free activities around the course designed to keep the little ones entertained. Meanwhile, live racing will provide plenty of excitement for the adults in the family. PRC chief executive Michael Hodge said the Kids Night Out was the perfect way to start the year. “It’s a terrific way to start the new year and also to kick off our second season of Thursday night racing,” Mr Hodge said. “Night racing really does encourage on-course attendance and, if last year is anything to go by, the kids will have a terrific night out. We will have themed nights throughout the season and look forward to strong support from the local community.” The PRC has raced 84 times since opening day at Tynong on March 26, 2015, and that number is set to swell with a further 28 meetings scheduled for the remainder of the 2016/17 racing season. Racing Victoria recently released its draft dates for the 2017/18 season, with Pakenham playing a key role in the fixture with 41 meetings programmed. That number will grow with the inevitability of transferred meetings to the PRC’s synthetic track.
They’re off. The kids take centre stage when the Pakenham Racing Club hosts the Cardinia Shire Kids Night Out on Thursday 19 January. 148852 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Hodge said the highlight of the draft dates was the scheduling of the Pakenham Cup for early December. “The success of the Saturday metropolitan Pakenham Cup surpassed our expectations last year and we’re thrilled that the draft date for this year’s cup is Saturday 9 December,” he said. “It’s a massive responsibility, and a big risk for
the club, but the positive feedback we’ve received really does reinforce our intentions to make it a success.” The PRC’s first two night race meetings for the year will be huge, with the Kids Night Out to be followed by a special night meeting on Australia Day Eve, Wednesday 25 January.

�� Reviews and news…
Mighty Mustang goes hard By Ewan Kennedy UNTIL now Aussies have had to bring in secondhand Mustangs from the US of A, or perhaps some other intermediate country. While there were some imports by Ford Australia back in the mid-'60s then again in 2001, these were overpriced and the local conversion to right-hand drive should have been visually better, though mechanically they were fine. The Ford Mustang finally reached Australia in full factory format in 2015 and has been a huge sales success. Order one now and your chances of getting it this year are slim. We couldn’t believe our luck when we scored a road test of a Mustang V8 GT for the two-week Christmas/New Year period. Normally we only get cars for one week, so this was a real bonus. Even better it was coloured in a brilliant red. (Thanks also to whoever crashed the one we should have been road testing for a single week a few months back …) Mustang comes as a coupe (called Fastback by Ford) and convertible ours had the hardtop, maybe we can score an open-top one next time. Ideally in winter when the weather is more suited to topdown motoring in our home area on the Gold Coast. Prices start at a ridiculously low $45,990 for the Mustang EcoBoost
coupe with a manual gearbox. Ours was an auto V8, at just $59,990. Long bonnet, short tail - styling geniuses at Ford came up with this stunning theme way back in 1964. There were some shockers in the 1970s and '80s before a return to normality in the mid-'90s. The current model, released in 2014 takes us right back to the styling genius stage. Inside there’s a neat and simple design for instruments and controls that works beautifully. Mustang is powered by either a 5.0-litre, twin-cam, four-valve V8 or a 2.3-litre EcoBoost engine. The V8 has had many upgrades in recent years, with lessons learnt in developing the special-edition 2012 Mustang Boss 302. These let it breathe better, especially at higher revs. The result is power of 306 kW and 530 Nm of torque. The 2.3-litre EcoBoost turbo-petrol engine reaches 233 kW and 432 Nm and isn’t to be sneezed at. So far we’ve only tested it at the Ford Proving Ground and it’s both quick and nimble. A six-speed manual gearbox or a six-speed automatic with paddle shifters can be specified. Ours had the auto, to be honest this is probably the pick of the pair for real-life driving. Though we can understand the purists who prefer a do-it-yourself gearbox. There’s a nine-speaker radio in there somewhere, can’t say we spent much time listening to it. The big Mus-
The new Mustang looks exactly the way it should - an excellent blast from the past. 163660 tang was far more entertaining from an audio perspective. The 2017 Mustang has Ford’s Sync 3 system with Apple Carplay, Android Auto and Ford Applink 3.0. It offers increased functionality and responsiveness compared to the system in the first MY2016 Sync 2 Mustang imports to Australia. The high-resolution 8.0-inch colour touchscreen is clear and easy to read but it’s rather low on the central dash and may cause driver inattention for longer periods than we are comfort-
able with. Huge tyres, big powerful Brembo brakes, well-sorted suspension and a very responsive V8 engine provide not only great driving pleasure, but also plenty of ability to stay out of trouble. Should you, or someone else, make a big mistake then you will be pleased to know Ford Mustang has received a five-star ANCAP rating. The V8 sounds and feels exactly the way a sporty V8 should. It’s lumpy at idle, produces a nice snarl even when you accelerate gently in traffic condi-
tions - and roars when you get onto the open road and give it a bit of stick. Is this the most enjoyable V8 I’ve ever sat behind? Almost certainly yes okay Maseratis may sound even better than this Ford, but have a look at their price tag. Snick the shifter down into Sport and the Mustang isn’t happy at very low speeds, surging and carrying on and a real hassle to drive in a carpark. Which is exactly the way it should be you want sport, you get it. Throttle response from the nonturbo engine is virtually instantaneous and the engine is happy to rev to the top of the scale, the latter a major improvement on V8s of old. This is a big car, but it doesn’t feel like it on the road, being quick in the steering, providing reasonable feedback through the electric steering assistance and happy to hold the road at big cornering speeds. There are really only two seats worth talking about as Mustang is a 2+2 not a full four-seater if there’s anyone other than kids in the back. Seat support is good without being full-on sports units. They are adjustable for height, which will probably please those who are vertically challenged and intimidated by a very long bonnet. Inquire at Berwick Ford, 749 Princes Highway, Berwick VIC 3806.
