Over and out are the predominant users of the lower reserve, with the rapid growth of the game at grassroots level well documented. The Master Plan will act as a guidance tool regarding a plan that is believed to include extra seating and an electronic sign for the lower reserve. Ms Worsnop said she was not against any proposed upgrade of the main reserve, or the growth of the game locally, but said the “Master Plan is biased towards the footballers”. “There are overlays, and adequate checks and balances, in place, but they are being ignored for the footballers,” she said. “The owls are territorial, so won’t pack up and leave, because they would need to push out other owls. “If there is no young to come through, the present population may not be around in the next five to 10 years.” There also are fears among local owl watchers there has been a significant decline in possum numbers in the area, due to human interference. Possums are one of the main food sources for the powerful owl. Earlier in the year, Ms Worsnop had expected the local duo to become ‘Mumma’ and ‘Pappa Owl’, with their actions suggesting there were eggs inside a hollow at the reserve. Ms Worsnop said ‘Mr Owl’ had been busy doing the hunting in the cooler months and coming back with his ‘possum pie’, while ‘Mrs Owl’ had been in the hollow and presumably tending to the eggs, which were likely to hatch in the coming weeks. Ms Worsnop said it was now clear they had abandoned the hollow and would have to wait again until next year.

An irreplaceable powerful owl population in Mount Evelyn is likely to disappear in the next five to 10 years, according to resident and long-time owl watcher, Clare Worsnop. For the third year running, a pair of breeding owls, ‘Mr Owl’ and ‘Mrs Owl’, who call home the Mount Evelyn Recreation Reserve, have abandoned their hollow after tending to eggs earlier in the year. Ms Worsnop believes the increased use of the lower reserve at the site is affecting the endangered species’ capacity to breed and maintain their population. Though, also concerning to Ms Worsnop, she believes an upcoming Yarra Ranges Council vote on the Mount Evelyn Recreation Reserve Master Plan could seal the local population’s fate. The Master Plan, which is due for the council chambers on 12 September, will provide guidance on a $5 million-plus proposal to rejuvenate the lower reserve, which includes its resurfacing and plans to drain the floodplain in the area. Ms Worsnop said the local powerful owl population was already under significant stress. “The noise level has increased with increased usage of the recreation reserve in recent years ... the football club trains from Tuesday through to Friday, then plays weekends and even night matches until 10am,” Ms Worsnop said. “The owls are becoming stressed and haven’t bred for three years now. If they stop breeding, they won’t be there for future generations. “That level of human interference is incompatible with the wildlife in the region.” Junior and women footballers

Gravel not rash By Peter Douglas The roadworks along Birmingham Road, Mount Evelyn, at the centre of community discontent were part of storm damage rectification works, according to Yarra Ranges Council. Mount Evelyn resident Tim Barrot spoke to the ‘Mail’ in August, saying he and around 12 other locals wanted to voice their concerns over the works along a gravel drain, which they said threatened the safety of local children. The group labelled the work a ‘band-aid solution’ and said the gravel was being strewn along the busy road, causing a hazard for drivers and pedestrians. Mr Barrot said the gravel from the works, near the Birmingham Primary School, was also washing off into nearby stormpits. “One issue with this type of repair is that if gravel washes onto the road on such a steep hill and a child runs out onto the road, we could have a major issue with braking, particularly in the wet,” he said. However, Council Manager of Infrastructure Services, David Harper, defended the works. “The works council undertook at Birmingham Road were completed

as part of storm rectification works,” he said. “After the 29 December 2016 and 21 March 2017 storms, the table drain at Birmingham Road was severely eroded. “The drain was up to one metre deep, creating a hazard for motorists who drove off the road, onto the road’s shoulder. “The works were undertaken during the school holidays to minimise disruption to school and general traffic.” He said crushed rock was used to lift the drains back to a safe level. “There have been some minor wash-outs of the drains after the completion of the works, because they did not set for long enough before the rainfall came,” he said. “The amount of wash-off that has occurred since the works were completed has been limited, compared to the wash-out prior to the works when the amount of material washing down the drains was excessive due to the erosion. “The works have now set and there will be minimal wash-outs in the future.” Mr Harper said a small amount of loose rock might find its way on to the road, but the quantity would be minimal.
Briefly Stolen Audi On 26 August Olinda police arrested a 29-year-old female from Pakenham at Jacksons Hill Road, Kallista. The woman was allegedly driving a stolen Audi sedan and police also located in the vehicle an assortment of jewellery, computer equipment and stolen credit cards and driver’s licence. The woman has been charged with theft of the car and handling stolen goods and was bailed to Ringwood Magistrates Court.
Number plates found Olinda police arrested a 45-year-old Olinda man with theft after locating stolen number plates on his vehicle and two oBike hire bicycles at his home address on 18 August. The man was charged by summons to appear at Ringwood Magistrates Court.
Flower theft
Before the works: The drain was severely Picture: CONTRIBUTED eroded. 172352
On 1 September a 65-year-old male from Heathmont and a 53-year-old from Lilydale were charged with theft after they tried stealing flowers from the Lakeside Flower Store on Monbulk road. The two reportedly loaded the car with $150 worth of flowers.
Police arrested them at the location and the two were charged with theft.
Sheep killed Sometime overnight on 2 September, a sheep had its throat cut on a property off Gembrook Launching Place road. Police believe the offender used a sharp blade to cut the animal's throat. Anyone who has any information or has seen suspicious activity in the area is urged to contact police on 000 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.
McGregor vs Mayweather fight The infamous boxing match between Floyd Mayweather and Connor McGregor transcended off of the screen and into reality for punters, when after watching the match a fight broke out in the parking lot of Paradise Valley Hotel in Clematis. Police report that on 27 August four or five patrons from Paradise Valley Hotel were involved in a fight outside after the controversial boxing match on TV came to an end. The incident is currently being investigated and police are looking at video footage.
Debut for the seniors By Derek Schlennstedt
Pat Crabtree and Barry Langdon were dressed for the occasion and looked stunning in their matching outfits which they bought from nearby op shops. 172439 was plenty of sequins, lace, and even a Scottish kilt made an appearance. All the couples sourced their dresses from local op shops. Di Mckenzie organiser of the event and dance instructor said that the couple had been practising the Pride of Erin Waltz every Monday for two months. “They’ve all done amazingly, and I don’t think anyone
knows what we are going to do next Monday night,” she said. Married for 52 years, couple John and June Millward said they never had the chance when they were younger and that this was their ‘last chance to debut’. Member for Evelyn Christine Fyffe also attended the celebrations, which she said she was delighted to be invited to and mentioned how beautiful all the debutantes looked.

Friday night, dressed to the nines, 12 debutantes filled the Mt Evelyn Ridge Retirement Village hall. Unlike other debutantes though, this one didn’t cater to the typical high school students, but instead was organised for 12 sexagenarian couples who had been practicing for two months in the lead-up to the event. The debutantes' ball was organised after Pat Crabtree a resident of Mt Evelyn Ridge Retirement Village raised the idea because she had never been given the opportunity to be a debutante when she was younger. Many residents shared the same story - that they were never given the opportunity to attend a deb and were now making up for lost time. “I did the school social but not the deb ... it just wasn’t as big as it is these days, and a lot of people didn’t do them,” Pat Crabtree said. “I had to tick it off the bucket list.” Looking nothing short of fabulous on the night, there

Hot or cold, advice is best Body
watch Jerome Higgins
Physiotherapist, Dandenong Ranges Physio, Olinda
Barely a day passes without one of our physios being asked, ‘should I put heat or ice on it?’ The best way to answer this question in general is to actually explain the factors that need consideration. Remember, ice is used to restrict circulation, and heat to increase circu-
lation: How old is the injury? Ice immediately post-injury for 10 to 15 minutes, which you can repeat every two to three hours for the first 72 hours. The acute inflammatory stage only lasts for around 14 days. Within this time period, most acute or sudden injuries continue to respond well to ice rather than heat but there are exceptions. What type of injury is it? Muscular strains can be heated before activity after a couple of days, and even muscular tears after five to 10 days depending on bruising. Ligament sprains will respond much better to ice for the length of the injury - even for weeks and months, es-
pecially if there is persistent swelling. Same goes for post-surgery. And discs and tendons respond differently again, as they have a very poor blood supply and react different to thermal changes - always seek advice for these injuries as the wrong management can have disastrous effects. Is there swelling? Swelling should be managed with regular elevation above heart level, and almost always with icing at the same time, even if it is a long-term or chronic problem. Is there reduced or increased skin sensation, or skin colour or temperature changes? This can indicate problems with the circulation or the nerve supply to the
regional circulation, which is potentially dangerous to extreme temperatures. In general, seek physio or medical advice before applying heat or ice. What does the person do for work/ sport? If you have an active job, and your injury gets worse with activity, then rest and ice may be more beneficial than heat. If you have a sedentary job or lifestyle, then heat and activity may be more beneficial. Again, you physio can provide the best advice on an individual basis depending on your injury. Can I use both heat and ice? Yes, this can be effective especially after sport or activity.

Elite athletes often use this system with ice baths and a warm plunge pool, varying time between both immediately after activity. The ice helps reduce the inflammation from strains or knocks and the heat helps to improve circulation to the soft tissues, remove the build-up of lactic acid and prevent post-exercise soreness. You can use localised heat and ice for muscle soreness after activity, except there is any bruising, bleeding or acute injury it will make these. And remember, the earlier you seek treatment from a physio for an injury, the easier it is to manage, and the quicker to improve.

Chains of hope By Peter Douglas Kallista Kindergarten has officially unveiled its fantastic new expansion and renovations, with children cutting a paper-chain to celebrate the occasion. Minister for Education, James Merlino, and Yarra Ranges Shire Mayor, Cr Noel Cliff, on Friday 1 September were among the dignitaries to attend the unveiling of the works, designed to improve programs the kinder can offer to local families. The expansions include renovating the centre’s verandah, building a new accessible entrance and a new administration area, and upgrading the bathrooms and storage areas. The much-loved kindergarten runs programs for three and four-year-old children and can accommodate as many as 48 children. Cr Noel Cliff said the upgrades will ensure local children enjoy the best possible start to their school life. “I would like to acknowledge the work of Yarra Ranges Council’s officers, who have been heavily involved in the consultation, planning and implementation of the redevelopment,” Cr Cliff said. ”I have been informed that there were a number of challenges to the process, including the available space, substantial slope and the building configuration. “But by working together, we now have developed this inclusive space, which will continue to assist children in their learning. “So a big thankyou from me to everyone involved.” Cr Cliff acknowledged the upgrade would not have been possible without the $250,000 funding support from the Victorian Government. Mr Merlino said the funds were money well spent. “Our unprecedented investment in early childhood services is supporting ADVERTISMENT

Vanessa Leaver joins in official duties at the kindergarten. 172420 children and families and ensuring that every child gets access to quality early years programs,” he said. “We’re investing in first-rate education facilities for Yarra Ranges families because having great facilities makes a
big difference to children’s lives.” Mr Merlino said Yarra Ranges families will also benefit from the Government’s $202 million Education State Early Childhood Reform Plan, announced in this year’s Budget.
Learning and sharing knowledge about maintaining healthy waterways is something the Southern Dandenongs Landcare group volunteers and Platypus Education Group ambassadors are passionate about. To demonstrate that passion, the group planted 500 indigenous species around Monbulk Creek last year and is set to do the same for this year’s Platypus Festival. The planting is just one of many that the group has undertaken to protect one of Belgrave’s most beloved residents - the platypus. The Southern Dandenongs Landcare group is gearing up for the Platypus Festival at Belgrave Lake Park on 10 September and is inviting the community to attend and take part in a range of fun and educational activities. Lyster Ward Councillor, Mike Clarke, said the Council Bushland team would be revegetating areas along the creek on the day. “We invite everyone to come along and get your hands dirty to help keep the creek healthy,” Cr Clarke said. “We will be planting about 500
plants from the Southern Dandenongs Landcare Indigenous Community Nursery. “These native plants stop the weeds and encourage a healthy creek and home for the platypus that live here.” The 500 plants have been funded by G.J. Gardner Homes’ 15 Trees Project and Council provided a $5000 grant to the Platypus Education Group and the Environmental Education for Kids. The Platypus Festival is a free family event that runs annuals and celebrates and recognises the unique environment people in the Dandenong Ranges live in where residents share their properties with native wildlife such as the platypus. Cr Clarke said the festival was an opportunity for residents to relax, enjoy live music, and take part in various craft activities and games for children. Yarra Ranges Council has supported this year’s festival by providing a $1400 grant to Southern Dandenongs Landcare group. The festival will be held on September 10 at Belgrave Lake Park, with planting set to begin at 12.30pm.

Why vote? Australians are being conned by the proposed same-sex marriage postal vote. The Federal Government should have debated the proposal in Parliament months ago, without the ridiculous expense of $120 million. It’s only because the Prime Minister wants to appease his conservative backbenchers that the referendum is occurring. This $120 million is too much money to waste and could have been used on hospital, health care and education. Bill Shorten needs to lift his game on same-sex marriage, because Turnbull is a ‘Mr Do Little’ MP Shorten does not have to follow. I urge all Australians to boycott the referendum and force the government to make a decision on same-sex marriage now and prevent much community discourse and anger and save $120 million. Bruce Johnson, Silvan.
Constant puff In response to 'Thousands flock to see Billy’ (Mail, 15 August), may I point out that the Puffing Billy trains have a negative impact on the environment. Air pollution from burning coal, by multiple trains daily, and noise pollution from the hooting penetrating whistle is intrusive to residents along the track for up to a kilometre or more each side. Depending on which way the wind blows, the smoke and cinders are smelt at considerable distance. It is well accepted as fact that particulate inhalation of coal burning is a serious health risk. Also, the vegetation along the train-line is mercilessly slashed
in summer so the train does not start fires, severely reducing biodiversity of flora and habitat for fauna. Furthermore, I am baffled: A non-profit organisation relying on 900 volunteers? Where does all the money go from this huge increase in patronage by Asian visitors? Why is Puffing Billy always seeking financial support from governments, which means taxpayers like me? What then is the point of all this noise, smoke and bluster? Carey Williams, Gembrook.
Dead-set scary I was concerned to read the article ‘Spooky take on vows’ (Mail, 29 August) that showed children are being encouraged to engage with witchcraft, death and the occult - because that is what Halloween is really all about. Occult rituals and witchcraft practices are an intrinsic part of the actual time of Halloween. Witches and Satanists use the night as a major time for their activities. People who have been personally involved with witchcraft have testified about the rituals and demonic activity relating to Halloween. There are particular spells and rituals that can only be used on Halloween night and it is said to be the night when the ‘veil’, believed to separate the living from the dead, is thought to be the thinnest. Allowing, or worse, encouraging children to participate in Halloween may seem harmless, but parents need to be aware of the dark influences their children are being encouraged to think are fun. Peter Stokes, Monbulk.
Festival brings a healthy har vest It’s time again to learn how to stay healthy while helping your community. The Healthy Harvest Festival will be held on Saturday 9 September, from 10am to 2pm, at the Sarah Court Preschool in Montrose.

Airing their complaints By Kath Gannaway
Get swoopy Time again to look skywards as magpie-swooping season pounces upon us, claws first. This time last year around 16 hot-spots were logged around the Yarra Ranges region on the Magpie Alert website. While it’s important to stay mindful wherever you’re located, it’s particularly the case around Yarra Glen (four reports), Mount Dandenong and Olinda (three reports), and Yarra Junction (three reports). Reports were also logged at Toolangi, Seville, Macclesfield, Belgrave Heights and Ferntree Gully. During swooping season, the Department of Environ-
ment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP) is reminding Victorians that swooping is a part of magpies’ breeding behaviour. DELWP senior wildlife officer Suriya Vij said the first incidents of the swooping season had been reported across Victoria over the past few weeks. “Being swooped by a territorial bird is no fun, but this is just normal bird behaviour and, if possible, the best response is to keep away from the area,” he said. “As the weather starts to warm up, birds start breeding and we want people to be aware of swooping birds. “People should remember not to harm native birds, as they are protected.”
The Magpie Alert site suggests residents: Keep alert and pay attention for any magpie nesting sites. Keep an ear open for their distinctive calls. Remember, magpies are urban species, too, so there is generally no escaping them. If you do get swooped, tell others, log the attack on the Magpie Alert website. It is important to try to stay calm. If you panic and flap, then this is more likely to appear as aggressive behaviour and provoke a further attack. Try to protect your eyes with your hands, those large beaks are very sharp and eye injuries have been recorded.

Have a say on the laws that could affect you. Picture: KATH GANNAWAY would help resolve issues more effectively,” Mr Wright said. He added that a big part of managing local laws was around resolving issues. The council made it very clear back in 2012 when the General Provisions Local Law was on the table that the council took a reactionary approach to many, if not most, of the laws. Mr Wright touched on that approach saying the question needed to be asked “if we can’t enforce things, do we need a law?” “We don’t want to unnecessarily interfere with people’s lives, the laws should be there to deal with things people have a concern about. “We find a lot of things we that we come across could be dealt with by the people who live in close proximity,” he said diplomatically. “Our response is moving towards helping people resolve the problems they have.” The council is encouraging residents to use the opportunity to have a say, saying the community consultation would help provide the council with an indication of what is working well with the current local laws,
and what is not. With the review of the Open Air Burning Law, the council will consolidate its local laws into one volume so in the future they can all be reviewed at the one time. The laws will not be required to reviewed again until 2028. To have your say, and view the current local laws document go to https://www.yarraranges. vic.gov.au/Lists/Current-consultation/Local-Laws-Review A hard copy of the local laws document, and the opportunity to make a written submission will also be available at the Yarra Ranges Community Links throughout the shire. Submissions close 31 October. The council’s top 10: Burning off. Animals. Abandoned vehicles. Business and permits. Unsightly property. Nature strip landscaping. Vegetation and overhanging trees. Native vegetation on council land. Camping. Obstructions on council land.

It’s one of the ironies of a local law that, generally, it doesn’t affect someone, until it affects them. As Yarra Ranges Council calls for feedback on a review of the Open Air Burning Law there is also the opportunity for residents to have a say on existing local laws covering what residents, and visitors, can, can’t and shouldn’t do. The council's health and local laws executive officer Peter Wright said the review was triggered by the looming expiry of the Open Air Burning Law (2008). It’s the last law to be reviewed as part of the council’s overall review of local laws that cover topics as diverse as a crowing roosters and roadside trading to nature strips, scare guns, caravans, abandoned vehicles, and more. The council has compiled a top 10 list of complaints and open air burning is the burning issue with 1609 ‘customer requests’ around smoke nuisance, fire risk and potential breaches of the existing law between 2013 and 2017. In the same period, 1496 requests were made regarding unregistered vehicles, caravans or trailers on roadsides and nature strips. Animal-related requests came in at 965. “The feedback is the first phase of the process and we’re asking people what they think about current local laws, trying to find out what works for them, what’s their experience and to see if there are any parts that they would change, or that

Expert help for foot and leg pain Feet are vital for mobility and balance, they are the basis of most of physical activities, so it’s no wonder problems and pain are common. Heel, arch, ankle and knee pain are the most common, affecting both children and adults. Left untreated these types of conditions can have a significant impact on your activities and mobility. However, as Wantirna’s Foot and Leg Pain Clinic’s musculoskeletal podiatrist Tim Kirwan explained, with the correct diagnosis and treatment, most foot and leg conditions are quite easily managed. “People often endure foot and leg pain and concerns for far too long, often because they are misdiagnosed and so receive inappropriate treatment or because they simply don’t know who to go to for effective treatment,” Mr Kirwan said. “This is really concerning and unnecessary because most foot and leg conditions can be easily overcome, thanks to the latest medical research and treatments.” While there are many doctors and health professional’s available right across Victoria, Mr Kirwan said that one of the issues facing patients is decid-

culoskeletal podiatrist, one who keeps up-to-date with the latest research and treatments. Such practitioners have the appropriate training, knowledge and experience to assist your concerns in the best way possible.” Wantirna’s Foot and Leg Pain Clinic is at 14/603 Boronia Road in Wantirna.

Yarra Ranges actresses Tuilyn and Rhiannon - both young mothers of primary school age children - understand the joys and challenges of parenthood. The responsibility of raising happy, healthy, well-adjusted kids in a hectic, technologyfilled world can feel demanding. We all want to be a good parent, friend, neighbour and citizen of the planet. Rhiannon and Tuilyn have plenty to draw upon when portraying their characters in God of Carnage, a comedy described as a 90-minute thrill ride into the most dangerous place on earth - parenthood. Chum Creek resident Justin Stephens, founder and artistic director for Yarra Valleys Redfox3 theatre, will present his newest production to audiences in Upwey this month. Last year, Redfox3 stunned packed audiences with their critically acclaimed production of the thrilling ghost story The Woman In Black. This year they are proud to present the hilarious Tony and Olivier award winning smash comedy, God of Carnage. Justin has assembled a stellar cast including Badger Creek resident Tuilyn Shannon and Rhiannon Leach of Chum Creek.
God of Carnage, from left: Rhiannon Leach, Stephen Shinkfield, Tuilyn Shannon and Adrian Carr. “The valley is rich with talented performers, casting this show was a breeze,” he said. “We are all so lucky to live in such a creative community, where we can produce and support quality theatre right on our doorstep.” Tuilyn said she felt fortunate to have the opportunity to act in such an amazing play. “After so many years away from theatre, it’s a joy to work with this wonderful cast and crew,” she said. For Rhiannon, the play is “deliciously fun”. “We all, the actors get to behave very badly,” she says.
“My character Annette asks ‘How many parents standing up for their children become infantile themselves?’ and that is exactly what happens, appalling childish behaviour ... it’s very liberating.” Justin is proud of the production, and confident that audiences will love God of Carnage. “The actors are all immensely funny - I laugh at every rehearsal,” he said. God of Carnage will play at Burrinja on 23 September. Book online at https://goo. gl/qodxk0, phone 1300 368 333 or email boxoffice@yarraranges.vic.gov.au

Mount Evelyn Under 14 dual premiers 2017. 172437
Pictures: KATH GANNAWAY
Gembrook-Cockatoo Under 16 Premiers 2017. 172438
Brookers win well By Kath Gannaway Gembrook-Cockatoo, Mount Evelyn, Healesville and Woori Yallock junior football clubs shared the excitement and rewards of the 2017 AFL Yarra Ranges Junior Grand Finals on Sunday. The Under 16s saw the hills sides represented with Monbulk Hawks taking on Gembrook-Cockatoo in a game that gave spectators some courageous football. Monbulk were the team to beat on paper, but it was Gembrook-Cockatoo who lifted on the day and ultimately out-ran Monbulk to register the win 10.12(72) to 6.8(44). Down, but not out, at three-quarter time, the Hawks came out fighting in the last quarter, but the Brookers were having none of it and piled on speed and the goals to claim the flag. Gembrook-Cockatoo coach Brad Snoxell paid credit to Monbulk saying they had played a stellar year to stay in top spot. “The ball bounced our way a bit today,” he said, but gave his boys their dues also saying they had fulfilled the vision they had at the beginning of the year to be holding the 2017 premiership cup aloft on grand final day. “You have worked extremely hard to be standing here,” he said. Frankie Trott was Best On Ground for Gembrook-Cockatoo and Austin Richardson for Monbulk. The Under 14s match between Mount Evelyn and Healesville was always going to be a close one, but noone could have guessed the final outcome - the first draw in memory of an Under 14 grand final. In another low-scoring game the Rovers and the Bloods held each other to account at every turn and had the crowd on tenterhooks as the score hung on 26 points each with just minutes to the final siren. Some great work by both backlines held off what each of them needed to grab that successful shot at the sticks - a point or a goal would have done it - and the scoreboard told the story
Mount Evelyn and Healesville Under 14s on the ball (from left) Riley Dash, Liam Bowden, Sam Warren and Darcy Close. 172437 Healesville 3.8(26) to Mount Evelyn 4.2(26). Another five minutes each end saw desperation football with both sides throwing everything they could at breaking the deadlock, including some hard-ball tackling and long kicks, to face another siren on 26-all. The league officials, and coaches declared a worthy result for two teams that had won in equal measure. “You never game up,” Healesville coach Marcus Howie told his team and Mount Evelyn coach Mark Holly had the same message. “Two teams have butted heads for an extra 10 minutes and you could not wish for a better result,” he said. “You have both won a grand final; both teams deserved that win,” he said. Best on Ground for Mount Evelyn was Daniel Coutts and for Healesville Daniel Ebbels. Earlier in the day, Woori Yallock came away with the first Premiership Cup of the day in the Under 11s in a low-scoring, goal for goal four quarters that saw the Tigers win by one point 2.1.13 to Healesville Red’s young Bloods on 2.0.12.

The Woori Tigers and Healesville Bloods ran out onto the Yarra Glen oval next to battle it out for the Under 12 flag. Healesville made the running from the first bounce and despite the efforts

of a determined Woori came away with a convincing 36-point win 7.3.45 to 1.3.9. Best on Ground for Healesville was Cameron Nyko and for Woori Yallock Matty Milkins. Chair of AFL Yarra Ranges congratulated all the teams who ran out on the biggest day of the year for the junior competition saying it had been a
great day for junior football. “It’s the first ever draw in a grand final for the Under 14s and the result after two ends of extra time was a good one,” he said. “It’s pleasing that the teams’ sportsmanship and the feeling between the clubs is obviously really strong. “They respect each other ... win or lose that respect is there.”

Finals action for the AFL By Cameron Hutchison AFL YARRA RANGES
Division 1 Seniors Qualifying Final Seniors Olinda-Ferny Creek 14.22(106) d Healesville 5.17(47) Olinda will take on Woori Yallock next week in the second semi-final while Healesville will need to regroup as they take on Wandin in the last chance first semi next week. Olinda peppered the goals against the wind in the first quarter, kicking 2.8 to 1.4 but inaccuracy made the quarter time margin only 10 points. With the wind, they could not find the big sticks with another 2.8 to Healesville’s two behinds and the lead at the main break was 28 points. Their accuracy was still under question in the third term but both sides contested the ball and both kicked 3.5. Olinda found the goals in the last, kicking 7.1 to 1.6 to come away with a big 59-point win at the final siren. Olinda will need to sort out their goalkicking for next week as 36 scoring shots to 22 should have seen the final margin a whole lot different to what it ended up. Olinda-Ferny Creek Goals: J.

Elimination Final Seniors Wandin 7.11(53) d Upwey-Tecoma 4.13(37) Wandin will take on Healesville in the first semi next week while Upwey-Tecoma’s season has come to an end. In a low-scoring game, UpweyTecoma got the jump in the first term, kicking 3.3 with the wind to just one behind. Wandin bounced back in the second quarter, kicking 6.5 and held Upwey-Tecoma to only four behinds. The margin at the main break was 17 points in Wandin’s favour. Inaccuracy plagued Wandin in the third term with a 1.5 quarter but Upwey could only manage 1.1. Upwey-Tecoma held Wandin scoreless in the last but could not convert when it mattered and only kicked five behinds to give Wandin the win at the final siren. Wandin Goals: M. Polkinghorne 4, P.
