has installed hundreds of traps in his orchard. Aimee Liston, Regional Manager Plants, Chemical and Invasives with Agriculture Victoria said there were a number of strategies Ms Koll and the regional governance group were working on. She said Ms Koll was currently in the process of applying for continued funding. On the need for an urgent response to situations such as the East Warburton absent property owner, Ms Liston said there was a process. "We don't have the powers to go in and just deal with something like that, there are strict definitions around what we can and cannot do, that depend on the situation," she said. A letter drop to 300 properties in East Warburton aims to ensure residents are aware of the problem in that area. Anyone who finds signs of QFF on their produce should contact Ms Koll on 0490 381 999 or qff@agribusiness-yarravalley.com to arrange a plan of action.

Mail laid the threat to the Yarra Valley's product industry firmly at the feet of the home gardener. Kevin Sanders of Sanders Orchards in Three Bridges said people in the industry had been aware of the problem posed by QFF and had strategies to deal with it. Untreated fruit spreading from residential produce posed the biggest threat, he said. Len Rayner of Rayner Orchards in Woori Yallock was less than optimistic about the ability of government to provide sufficient resources to eradicate the pest should it get a foothold in the Yarra Valley, or the will of the home-growing public to play the role they would need to to either contain or eradicate QFF. "Talking to other growers, the backyard growers are the problem because they are not monitoring or caring; people just don't look at their trees," he said. "Farmers have the tools to control it, but backyard people just don't," said Mr Rayner who

A second confirmed identification of Queensland fruit fly in the Yarra Valley has raised the question of whether enough is being done to protect the valley from the economybusting pest. And, what role the fruit-tree growing home gardener needs to play in protecting a multimillion dollar industry that also ties into the economic value of tourism in the region. East Warburton resident Coral Reynolds said she was alerted to the threat of Queensland Fruit Fly by a campaign of advertisements warning of the potential threat to the Yarra Valley. Run by Agribusiness Yarra Valley the campaign ramped up following an earlier confirmation of the QFF on a commercial property in the Valley. Ms Reynolds contacted Agribusiness QFF Regional Co-ordinator Bronwyn Koll when she found larvae in lemons in her garden and launched immediately into the task of removing and collecting the fruit and boiling it to eliminate any chance of the infestation spreading. She said however that she was concerned that there were other fruit trees in the area, including one nearby which was infested, which were not being either inspected or the fruit removed and treated. The owner of that particular property was away and Ms Reynolds was advised there was no provision for entering onto private property to deal with the problem. Ms Koll confirmed the infestation, and in a media release advised that QFF presence in fruit or fruit growing regions can ruin efforts to grow fruit in a home gardens or orchards, and can restrict fruit trade with sensitive interstate and international markets. Ms Koll is working with industry representatives and Yarra Ranges Council on an action plan to deal with the QFF threat with a public awareness and education approach deemed to be the best way to tackle the problem. "Upper Yarra residents should look closely at their home grown produce to see if there are suspect signs of QFF such as soft fruit, sting marks, rotten fruit inside, or larvae," she said. "If fruit is found to have larvae inside it, the best course of action is to freeze or boil the fruit to kill the larvae, and stop the lifecycle." Commercial fruit growers contacted by the

By Derek Schlennstedt As part of the Australian Taxidermy Championships dozens of people descended on The York in Lilydale over the weekend to see animals brought back to life through the impressive art of taxidermy. And of course, the range of exotic and native life-like creatures, created by the hands of dedicated taxidermists certainly didn't fail to impress. From Cuttlefish to koalas and even a peregrine falcon, every animal had been painstakingly brought back to life through dainty hands, keen eyes and long hours of workmanship. This year, over 90 animals were displayed and the competition was closer than ever. David Jacobs, from Queenstown was judging the Junior's and Novice division and said the quality was some of the best he'd seen as well as the age range of people entering the competition.. "The standard is world class," Mr Jacobs said. "The youngest contestant I judged here was eight years old, and the oldest I think is in his seventies, which is great to see." While much of the three day competition sees judges giving competitors advice, one individual who definitely knew what he was doing was Ben Carillo, who took out the Best in Master's for his Cuttlefish, as well as receiving the Artisans Award for his Leafy Sea Dragonwhich included 182 separate pieces. "Mine is a fibreglass reproduction, so what I do is actually take a mould of the specimen and then I make it out of fibreglass." "The hardest part is painting and seaming it all up and trying to make it look realistic again ... the Leafy Sea Dragon took ten weeks to do,

Dennis and Dianne Grundy, organisers of the event, said that each year the competition grows from strength to strength and that this was one of the biggest and toughest competitions so far. "It's turned out fantastic, there are some really beautiful and exciting displays, showing emotion and movement," Mr Grundy said. The art form in here is just magic.

Subdivisionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s green light By Derek Schlennstedt A proposal to subdivide vacant land in Coldstream into 67 unit lots has been approved by Yarra Ranges Council at the Council Meeting on 27 February. The current vacant lot located at 638-640 Maroondah Highway is 4.57 hectares in size and the development proposal involves the subdivision of the land into 67 lots ranging in size from 340 to 500 square metres. The motion was carried, with all councillors unanimously voting to approve the planning application. Though, speaking at the meeting, Mary Troiana, one of 15 people who have raised ob-

jections, said that these types of developments were exactly what Coldstream didn't need. "Coldstream is supposed to be the gateway to the Yarra Ranges with these units coming up now we have no reason to encourage people from the city to come out to Coldstream." "We've been in Coldstream seven years on Saturday and we absolutely love it but ... at the moment we have nobody coming into the area because there's nothing there to offer people." Ryrie Ward Councillor Fiona McAllister commended Ms Troiana on speaking so passionately about Coldstream and said that in the context of the town this application for subdivision was something 'quite significant'. "The vision for Coldstream that council has

been working on with community has been developing over the past few years through the work that's been done on the structure plan," Cr McAllister said.The Coldstream Structure Plan was adopted by Yarra Ranges Council in April 2016 and sought to provide a 15 -20 year guide on the growth and development of the Coldstream township. "In the structure plan ... there would be an encouragement of new forms of residential development in particular this site," said Cr McAllister "Because Coldstream is surrounded by an Urban Growth boundary there is no state support for expansion ... there was universal support for additional development to take place in the

township within the urban growth boundary." "An expanded population would have economic benefits for the town and certainly great social benefits. "By allowing this particular subdivision to proceed it certainly will support the vision that is listed in the Coldstream Structure Plan." Councillor Heenan echoed Councillor McAllister's comments on the need for development within Coldstream. "It's disappointing to know that there's been five owners in the past 20 years at the local supermarket ... and some of the other businesses have just been rubbing sticks together to survive," he said.

Solar boost lights the way for businesses By Kath Gannaway Yarra Glen businesses, small and large, have an opportunity to partner with Yarra Glen's renewable energy group, Yarra Glenergy, to host solar panels and generate clean energy in town. The bonus good news for businesses is that there is no upfront cost to the business. Yarra Glenergy is seeking expressions of interest (EOI) from businesses in the 3775 postcode to host the panels on their buildings. Power generated through the project will be sold to the selected host businesses and the income used for further renewable energy and community projects. The businesses will own their own solar sys-

tem after 10 years. Treasurer, Melinda Koth, said the group would be handing out flyers over the coming week and EOI would be assessed to find the best fit for the project. "This is part of a wider project about renewable energy and promoting it for the benefit of the community," Ms Koth said. "I'm feeling very confident that we'll have our first project underway in the next few months, completed by July, and we'll have one or two other projects completed by the end of the year." Yarra Ranges Mayor, Cr Len Cox, congratulated the group and its members on embracing the solar project.

"We know that sustainable, clean energy is important for the future of the planet and our environment," Cr Cox said. "From the outset, the Yarra Glenergy members have taken ownership of this project, organising letter drops, community meetings and consulting with residents on the street. "I'm proud to see the level of support for this project, from both the group members and the wider community, and I look forward to seeing community-led solar in Yarra Glen take shape." For more information, or to enquire about membership, email yarraglenergy@gmail. com. or phone Yarra Glenergy Vice-President, Tom Belford, on 0417 171 538.

The Yarra Glen Showgrounds will transform into a digital fantasy world from 10 to 25 March thanks to a free augmented reality game available for smartphones. Enviro Park is available for everyone to download via the Magical Park app to celebrate Park Week 2018 from 10-18 March and learn about how we can keep our parks and reserve clean and rubbish-free. Mayor Len Cox said families should get down to the showgrounds and make the most of the two-week pop-up park. "The game was created for children aged 6-11 and transforms a sports field or green space into a digital playground," Cr Cox said. "Search Magical Parks Yarra Glen on Google Maps to find the dropped pin." The game is available at the Yarra Glen Showgrounds venue in between the open space between two ovals. In order to play, families need a mobile device with four in-built hardware sensors: a GPS, compass, gyroscope and an accelerometer which most modern smartphones have.

Q&A

Touch of England Q&A with Anthony Garace, vocalist

What is something people generally don't know about you? I've been diagnosed with MS. If you just saw me singing down the street you wouldn't know. What is one of the most memorable moments? Too many ... I'm tied between releasing my songs, and when I went to New York for the first time. It always been big dream of mine. What would your final meal be? A big box of fried chicken. What event, past, present or future would you like to witness? Just seeing my parents as kids; seeing them grown up. If I had a super power, it would be time travel. What is your favourite television show? Friends. It started a bit before my time but is still a big part of my era. What six guests, dead or alive, would you invite to a dinner party? Celine Dion, Beyonce, Elvis, Michael Jackson, Whitney Huston and Frank Sinatra. What was the first, or the best film, you have seen? I'm mainly a comedy person, but I love the Harry Potter series. What are you working on right now? Music-wise I'm working on recording some new songs. I released an original song a couple of years ago and I'm continuing with that. What keeps your interest in singing alive? The people's reaction when I perform is a big part of it, and I'm in love with what I do. I love music; it's my life, I can't live without it. It's like air.

It was pleasing to read on the front page of the Mountain Views Mail on 27 February that Melbourne Water is respecting the Aboriginal artifacts found at Dixons Creek during the work on the aqueduct. Unfortunately the same respect was not displayed for the indigenous environment, with the planting of 66 exotic trees as part of the rehabilitation process. Some areas of the Yarra Valley are slowly but surely looking like an English countryside. Ian Whitford Steels Creek

A missed opportunity? Every day, the Yarra Ranges Council and other authorities involved in the Warburton mountain bike hub proposal kneel to a handful of vocal opponents to such a development As each day passes, numerous Tasmanian destinations get further and further ahead and boost their economy as a result. Derby, Maydena Park, Bay of Fires and many others are reaping the rewards of a sustainable recreational pursuit that these vocal opponents couldn't possibly fathom. Mayor Len Cox and your fellow councillors, 'now' is the time to do something about this. Don't let this opportunity slip through your hands and become your legacy. A legacy of what could have been. Michael Walker, Upwey

Walking for a cause By Kath Gannaway Hundreds of people stepped up and stepped out in the fight against Ovarian Cancer as part of the 2018 Walk with Me from Lilydale to Warburton on Sunday, 25 February. The event was founded by Sue Contarino in 2016. Sue, who was diagnosed with terminal ovarian cancer in 2013, died last May, just a few months after the 2017 walk which traverses the 42 kilometre rail trail. It was a difficult and emotional walk for her family, including husband Steve and eightyear-old daughter Raina, for her close friends, and for those who have walked beside the Yarra Valley woman through her most uplifting, and her most challenging times. Friend and Walk With Me committee member, Karen Welsford, said the day was a great success with numbers possibly slightly down on last year, but raising, to date, nearly $69,000 for Ovarian Cancer Australia. She said the Walk was inspiring with a particularly memorable moment as Steve and Raina crossed the finish line carrying Sue's cap, t-shirt and jacket emblazoned with her moto of 'Faith, Hope & Love'. "It was difficult, very difficult," said Steve who said it was their way, a single act, of recognising Sue at the end and honouring her legacy. "To be honest, we didn't know how it would go without Sue driving it," he said. "We were walking to honour Sue's legacy and create awareness but at the end of the day I was blown away in terms of both awareness and financially. "If we create enough awareness, women can push their GP and get themselves more thoroughly tested. "It shouldn't ever happen again." OCA Director of Fundraising, Katrina Parker made a presentation to those walking in memory of someone, or currently with Ovarian Cancer, and to the Walk With Me committee.

Yarra Ranges Council offices at Anderson Street is one step closer to going green after councillors endorsed a tender to design and construct a covered car park structure fitted with solar panels. The project is expected to achieve an energy generation capacity of 300kwp, and reduce ongoing electrical operation costs at the Anderson Street site by $62,150 per year. It would also reduce greenhouse gas emissions from the site by 546 tonnes per annum. The project would be included in part of the redevelopment of the council offices and Lyster Ward Councillor Mike Clarke said it was great opportunity for council to generate much of its own power. "This is a great initiative ... it indicates that just putting a solar roof over our car parking space is something which can generate a lot of power." "The general returns on this, it provides great opportunities for future energy storage and for electric car charging, which is ideal for future use of the site." Councillor Tony Stevenson echoed Cr Clarke's comments and said that it would be a great investment into the future. "It is unavoidable that council has to use some energy ... .a lot of efforts have gone into reducing energy use by council and council assets," Cr Stevenson said. "As we know electricity is not getting any cheaper nor is the impact of electricity generation diminishing n the planet. "This is a great initiative ... it will reduce the council's carbon footprint, reduce the cost of running council and is a great investment that will pay for itself more than three times over. "I would love to see many more initiatives of this quality."

The book predates Attunga by 100 years and Peter said that while there are small references to his previous book anyone is able to read and understand it. The aptly called Mpartnwe, Aboriginal for Alice Springs is set in Central Australia and follows two protagonists, Jarra and Mirrigian, both who have disabilities that complement one another. "It's a mainstream sci-fi adventure story ... The basic story behind it is how the very first Independent AI comes into being," said Peter. "There is a disability theme which is very different to the first book, it's very positive and gentle, because Jarra has a brilliant mind but his body is very limited, but Mirrigan is exactly the opposite to him." Mparntwe describes how these two young friends change the world for the better with their involvement in the development of the first benevolent Artificial Intelligence. In the book there is a gentle treatment of disability involving both the characters, Jarra and Mirrigan, and as per his last book Peter draws on his vast experience of travelling Australia. Many of the boys' adventures are based in distinctly Australian settings - the outback near Alice Springs, and the Grampians Range in Western Victoria. The heart-warming tale follows the two boy's adventures as they face hostile forces of power and greed who want to control the first artificial intelligence, who both of the boys befriend. Together said Peter they will influence events which will 'change the world'.To find out more about the book visit https://diasporatales.net/

Wallaby next for Bungalook By Derek Schlennstedt Bungalook Creek Wildlife Shelter is just a few steps away from finishing the construction of their new intensive care unit, which will assist them in housing and rehabilitating injured wildlife. On 6 March Federal Liberal Member for Casey, Tony Smith visited Bungalook Wildlife Centre and announced the $20,000 grant to help the not-for-profit organisation in finalising their ICU centre, while also taking the time to get up-close and personal with several cute and cuddly joey's. "It is great to visit the team at Bungalook Creek Wildlife shelter here in Mt Evelyn to announce $20,000 of Federal Government funding towards the fitting out of their new intensive care facility," MP Tony Smith said. "Emma and the team of volunteers at Bungalook Creek Wildlife Shelter are doing a great job. "This federal government funding, which has been matched by the shelter, will go a long way to helping more injured and orphaned native animals." With the shelter catering to over 400 animals each year, that funding will certainly go a long way and Emma Cash, president of Bungalook Wildlife Shelter said that the ICU centre would be a huge improvement on their current facilities. "The ICU unit is a massive upgrade for what we've had originally ... before we were confided to a room which is the size of a bedroom whereas now they have a massive 12 by 9 metre room," Emma said. "It's been constructed to house injured and native wildlife, perfectly built for animals that have fractures or need intensive medical treatment. "We have an aviary that's being built, specialised wombat pens, and a massive area for kangaroos and joeys to jump in a safe and indoor environment while they're recovering ...

Dogs

it's all for the animal, it's all been built with them in mind." The $20,000 from the federal government has gone to finishing-off the new area including tiling, so the Joey's can jump around on it, a new kitchen area, storage area, toilet area and new linen closet. "It allows us to finish off stuff, stuff which would have taken years to complete," said Emma. The shelter caters to mainly Australian marsupials and mammals, though occasionally receives birds and bats.

"We tend to get a lot of marsupials - kangaroos, wallabies, wombats and some bats," said Emma. "We will do micro and grey headed bats, gliders and possums and will do the odd bird ... we mainly get a lot of animals with fractures and injuries, though we have a great medical team." For 24 hours a day, 7 days a week the shelter provides nursing care and support with the goal of restoring orphaned and injured wildlife to their natural condition and habitat. The construction of the ICU building has taken over a year to complete and Emma said

that it would never have been accomplished without the support and help of community organisations and the federal government. "It's been a massive undertaking," she said. "It's taken a year and a half, and we're just in the process of moving everyone in ... it's been a really long journey, so hopefully it'll be up and running in a month." "We rely on a lot of local businesses to support us, it's been phenomenal how much support we've been given ... without them this dream would never have become a reality."

Ashlyn Hermansen (centre) whose artwork features on the Pet Bags launched by CFA members and Eildon MP Cindy McLeish.

Pet message in the bag By Kath Gannaway The safety of family pets in a bushfire or other emergency is a big concern for most people, including former Woori Yallock Primary School student Ashlyn Hermansen whose winning artwork features on a Grab Bag that delivers a message of the importance of having a plan for family pets. The launch on Monday, 26 February, of the new Pet 'Grab Bag' comes out of the 2017 Hillcrest Fire Brigade Art Competition. Brigade captain Fiona Burns said the bags were a great opportunity to engage with people about pet safety. "The winning design brilliantly captures all the key CFA messages around planning for pet safety in a fire or emergency," Captain Burns said. The bags were unveiled at Woori Yallock Primary School where Ashlyn designed the logo and developed the message 'Prepare, Relocate, Save your pets fate'. They feature the artwork and school details on one side and a space for the family pet's name and a checklist to cover essentials to pack in case of fire and emergencies on the other. "The Art competition utilises a different

"If a kid comes home and says 'Hey Mum, what are we going to do with our horse if there's a bushfire?' Mum might say 'I don't know ... that's a good question', "Well, I'm doing this competition, and I have to come up with a logo ... so it starts that conversation." Lt Smith said. Captain Burns said Ashlyn's design was too good to just to leave as an art prize. "It's a different approach to engage with the community around their animal safety and it's already creating a lot of interest and we hope it might spread further," she said.

St Joseph’s sticker fun By Kath Gannaway Students at St Joseph's Primary School in Yarra Junction have had a boost to their learning resources thanks to their local Woolworths supermarket, and their Woolies-shopping family members. St Joseph's collected the most Earn & Learn stickers out of all the schools in the district earning them a stack of educational resources. Woolworths Yarra Junction manager Mario Delloste presented the Earn & Learn prize

package at school assembly. School principal John Faulkner said schools are always looking for extra resources. "You never have enough to do all the things you need to do and there's a lot of pressure on parents to do fundraising," he said. "The opportunity to receive something like this is a gift opportunity." Wandin North Primary School also received an Earn and Learn package as the winning school in their area.

Sparrow is a red turkey Red Sparrow Starring Jennifer Lawrence, Joel Edgerton and Charlotte Rampling Based on the novel by Jason Matthews, Red Sparrow is an artfully-constructed but unfocused spy thriller. The film follows Dominika Egorova (Jennifer Lawrence), a famous Russian ballerina who is forced into working for Russian intelligence by her repulsive, high-ranking uncle Ivan (Matthias Schoenaerts). The first act is a harrowing slow-burn, as Dominika receives emotionally gruelling espionage training at a 'Sparrow' school for elite agents. Sparrows are trained to deceive and seduce their targets for information, and Dominika gradually triumphs over the school's psychological manipulation, ultimately wielding a disarming level of control over her rivals. Of special note is French legend Charlotte

Rampling as the school's coldly captivating matron. But after the intense cunning and depravity of the first act, Dominika becomes a rather bland protagonist in a muddled, erratic narrative. Red Sparrow maintains a generally tense, uneasy mood punctuated by graphic violence, with the Russian government as a powerful force constantly one step ahead of Dominika, but the plot takes a simple objective - uncovering a CIA mole - and overcomplicates it. The characters - especially the villains overlook several easy options. The film detours into a nebulous side-plot involving a blackmailed US chief-of-staff, and Dominika has lukewarm chemistry with her love interest, undercover CIA agent Nash (Joel Edgerton). Red Sparrow has a phenomenal opening, but can't pace itself properly or collect its thoughts for a satisfying whole. - Seth Lukas Hynes

Ye Olde Farmhouse on approx. 20 acres If a lifestyle change has been looming in the back of your mind, well now is the time with this opportunity available. Once upon a time this home of roughly 1940’s vintage was the residence to a large family who loved animals, fresh air, the chatter of birds and a tranquil environment. The family ran a successful kennel operation for many years, of which the infrastructure is still in good condition and being able to accommodate approx. 30 dogs, the substantial operation could give you a great income whilst working from home (STCA). There are also extensive cat enclosures which could also be utilised to expand. The home is full of character and provides up to 4 bedrooms, a country style kitchen, wood heating and split system heating and cooling and is just in need of a bit of loving and tlc to bring it back to its glory. A 12 meg water licence offers ample water to the property.

Burras - the team to beat By Chris Anderson The final throws of the 2017-18 season are being played out across the Yarra Valley as the search for much-needed form, individually and as a team, is in full swing. With the top four spots being virtually sewn up in the competition's premier grades for some time, there is some impatience to get the finals in full swing. However, in C and D Grade a litter of fascinating results has the finals make up still up for grabs and in an intriguing position with one round remaining. Warburton-Millgrove have announced themselves as the team to beat in DJ Strachan Shield with an impressive showing as they outlasted Mount Evelyn. The Burras were impressive on day one, accumulating a challenging total of 8/245. Their approach was fairly simple, disciplined and effective. Their bowling followed a similar path. Early on it looked as if Mount Evelyn had borrowed the blueprint, and a 100-run partnership between Gareth Fraser (66) and Andrew Giblin (45) looked to have them well on target for a flourish at the total late in the day. Unfortunately for the Mounters' challenge, Fraser lost his wicket leading into tea, and the face of the game changed with it. Fraser was brilliant with carefully chosen strokeplay frustrating a tiring attack, but that careful approach came undone with the score on 102. Giblin batted on patiently; but when the visitors lost the opener and captain Kane Jones in quick succession, the challenge became much greater. The Mounters batted on gamely, but the discipline of the Warburton-Millgrove attack gradually wore down the challenge. With the run rate required quickly ballooning out the dam wall broke, and Mount Evelyn couldn't hold back the tide. Despite nearly batting out their overs, they found themselves on the poor end of a 70-run result. The Burras were best served by workman like efforts from David Lever (4/62 off an amazing 32 overs) and brother Daniel, whose spin netted him 5/46. A truly remarkable show of patience and workrate. Despite not overtaking the Mounters at the top of the table, the Burras now boast a healthy favouritism for the main prize with only one round to go. They have been barely challenged since back to back losses way back in rounds 2 and 3. Mount Evelyn, despite being bitterly disappointed with the result, have a timely reminder of where they need be to challenge for the premiership; and after a great season will be driven not to let their hard work go to waste. The other two teams destined for finals action, Yarra Glen and Yarra Junction, also had the opportunity to gain some valuable match practice leading into finals against a fellow premiership aspirant. Unfortunately for the game, it had been reduced to a one day affair, as rain curtailed a start on day one. Yarra Junction won the toss and duly elected to bat, and despite losing Marcel Kocher early, the Eagles built a handy base courtesy of a useful partnership between Andy Wear and Matt Robinson. Unfortunately for the visitors, this is where there challenge with the bat reached its peak. Wear has had a season of starts, and he wouldn't of been all too pleased being the next to go on 36 with the team score on 2/51.

Robinson teamed with the experienced Kevin Bomford, and briefly looked to keep the innings on track, but Yarra Glen's young leg spinning 'wonder kid' Jimmy Lusk was about to turn this game on its ear. With four wickets to his name, the young star reduced the Eagles innings to a standstill. When his spell had finished with brilliant figures of 4/37, the door was open for Corey Parrant (4/26) to rip through a vulnerable tail. Yarra Junction did show some resistance, but the damage had been done, and they fell for a disappointing 103. Albeit a disappointing total, it left the game open as it pitted the Eagles' strength, their bowling, against the batting of the Riverpigs as they possess a more than handy top order. Unfortunately, with only 103 to play with, the Eagles couldn't manufacture enough opportunities. They were able to eek out the dangerous John O'Donnell and Brendan Ricci, but David Brambilla (35 not out) and Andy Cowan (35 not out) were up to the challenge. Both teams have seemed to be a step behind the top two all season, but their results and consistency shows they still have a massive role to play at the pointy end of the season. Yarra Junction will get a further indication of where they sit with a final round match up against Warburton-Millgrove. The Eagles have tasted success against the Burras this season, and a win against the front runners will give them a much needed boost come finals time. Yarra Glen have been gradually putting their season together, and this rounds win will give them a timely boost, and some confidence that they can match it with the best. With Corey Parrant and Jimmy Lusk proving themselves as wicket takers, perhaps now they have the bowling line up to compliment their talent laden top order. In the final game of the round, in match for pride as much as anything else, Healesville managed to hold off a dogged Seville team. Last week, with the day being interrupted by rain, Healesville posted a more than competitive 8/215 off 60 overs. Seville's task became all the more difficult as they lost experienced duo, Ranga Yasalal and Leigh Atkin early. A pair of bats that not only add an assured experience, but some run scoring grunt at the top of the order. Jake McInness (24) led from the front for his team as they had to withstand some impressive bowling from the Bloods' bowlers. In a show of defiance, the Blues weren't about to meekly roll over in the chase. Healesville held their nerve, patience and discipline, and when they were able to prize McInness out, the score sat at 4/48 nearing the halfway point. Despite fighting a losing cause with the run rate required rising under some impressive bowling from the visitors, Seville's middle to lower order held firm in a show of pride. In the end, the game meandered to a Healesville win as they restricted the home team to 7/142, a comfortable 73-run victory. The Healesville bowlers put in a mighty team performance, and were best served by Scott Hamer (2/20) and Dermott Fry (2/31). These two teams will put their tough season's to rest next week against tough opposition. Could one last concerted effort net them a win? Although disappointed with the final outcome of the season, both teams will be buoyed with their opportunity to blood some youth in

a bid to rise back to the top on the back of two of the most dominant junior programs in the competition. In Finger Trophy action, the biggest mismatch of the season between competition leaders Coldstream and cellar dwellers Launching Place, didn't live up to its billing as an entertaining draw ensued. Unfortunately for the contest, last week's rain delay would cost this game going the distance. Resuming at 5/120, the Crocs quickly found themselves in a spot of bother as Jordan Birnie removed the dangerous Stephen Phillips and Carl Dikschei to have the visitors in a spot of bother at 7/131. Fortunately for Coldstream, they can afford to have their best bat, Dean Oliffe, bat as low as 9 and he soon rectified the imbalance. With a masterful unbeaten 66, and valuable support from Daniel Whelan and Daniel Sharp, Oliffe ensured his team's status remained intact as he pushed the score to relative safety at 10/241. With lost time on day one, the chances of Launching Place diminished greatly, but they still had to hold off a hungry Coldstream attack, and that they did with aplomb. Firstly Matt McConnell put the competition leaders to the sword with a quick fire 40, whilst young stars Anthony Sequeira and Max Bradley, then helped their team safely navigate the team through the remaining overs to finish at 2/95, a state in play that had there been time would've allowed the, an opportunity to seriously challenge the total. Gruyere are gathering momentum at the back end of the season, and they proved too strong for Hoddles Creek. Batting first, the Scorpions cobbled together a competitive 10/189 on the back of a Matt Tilney half century. The Wombats weren't disgraced and toiled manfully to keep the final total in check. Scott Simmonds was the pick of the bowlers as his masterful 6/36 gave the Wombats all the chance to chase the total. Unfortunately for the home side, they were unable to match the bowling skill of Mitchell Hodgetts (4/8) and Matt Tilney (3/17). The pair ensured that their opponents couldn't gain any momentum in the innings and when it was all said and done, the Wombats were bowled out for a disappointing 84, some 105 runs from their target. The result ends Hoddles Creek's slim hopes of finals action after a desperate fight over the final rounds, whilst Gruyere are gathering some momentum and with some key inclusions, look to have the ammunition to seriously challenge Coldstream and Woori Yallock for this season's premiership. Woori Yallock shrugged off a sluggish performance against Hoddles Creek, with a solid victory against fellow finalists Wandin. Wandin battled to post 152 last week, and entered day two in the full knowledge that they needed to make early inroads into an impressive Woori Yallock top order. The Bulldogs were able to capture five wickets across the journey, but a significant partnership between club stalwarts Mick Dwyer (55) and Cal Ferguson (35) ensured that a total of 152 just wouldn't cut it. Woori Yallock have out together a consistent season, and if their top order clicks at the pointy end, they could prove to be a difficult proposition. Wandin on the other hand need to shrug of a lull in form if they are to seriously contend for the title. DJ Strachan Shield Warburton-Millgrove 8/245 (S. Humphrey

Founding members shoot By John Wood Sporting clubs like to remember their founding members. Woods Point Gun Club has held these memorial events at different times of the year. In 2017, it was decided to bring those events together in a Founding Members Memorial Day and this first day was on Sunday 25 February 2018. Relatives and friends of Jack Scott, Ron Martyn and Don and Ann Woods - plus shooters from as far as Bright, Macorna, Gippsland and the Mornington Peninsula - attended and competed at an enthusiastic and enjoyable Memorial Day. The day started with a 10 target Double Barrel Cash Divide that resulted in Phillip Desmong

and Rob Bevis taking the AA Grade cash, 30/30. Wade Apps and Andrew Estcourt, 30/30 as well, were successful in A Grade, Geoff Hill and Steven Bedgood taking B Grade, 29/30. John Legge won the C Grade prize on his own, 30/30. The first of the main events was the 25 target Double Barrel Jack Scott Memorial sponsored by the Scott Family. Laurie Poile, Anthony Kirley and Wade Apps returned 25/25 scores to go into a shoot-off for the Jack Scott Trophy. Ten targets later Poile held the trophy aloft, 35/35. The winners for the Grade prizes were: AA

Warburton bowls results In a wonderful team effort, Warburton1 defeated finalist, Ringwood 1, at home, 85 to 71. Rink scores were as follows: J. Brookes 20/ 23; C. Bell 22/ 12; J. Van Der Zweep 14/ 17 and M. Brennen 29/ 19. This was the positive performance; they wanted to conclude their first season in Division 1 and to ensure that they remain there. Warburton 2 fought off a gallant Lilydale 4 away to finish on top of the ladder, 78 to 71. Rink scores were P. Summers 18/15; R. Zunneberg 15/18; P. Woods 29/13 and G. Wynd 16/ 25. This week they play Chirnside Park 2 at home in the semi-final. Good luck! Oakleigh 3 unfortunately forfeited to Warburton 3. The Tuesday Mid-Week side played Healesville 1 at home and won convincingly, 84 to 34, to ensure a place in the finals. Rink scores were: G. Walsh 31/ 6; R. McKail 30/ 16 and S. Lord 23/ 12. This week they play Ringwood 1 away in the semi-final. Good luck! The Wednesday Night Barefoot Bowls Tri-

By Ron Hottes Wednesday 28 February: Par: You know, waiting in the clubhouse for the rest of the field to finish can be traumatic; especially when you are the 'clubhouse leader' until the very last group clocks-in! Then, suddenly, you're relegated to third! Oh well, it's just a case of try again next week! In the end, the winner was the ever-popular 'Old Man River', Alan Johnston, with a very commendable +3. Phil Garside was r/up on a c/back ( from me!!), with +2. Balls got to -1. And NTP winners were Allan Hubbard (9th) and Ian Garside (10th). Twilight: With only three rounds to go to the 'big shootout', every result counts now! Malcholm Dickson accrued a freakish 27 points to 'easily' win the night. Geoff Fall's 23 would win any other night.

And, balls only extended to 19. NTPs went to Roger Mataele (12th), President Hall (15th) and to Danny Fox (17th). Saturday 3 March: Stroke and M/Medal: A Grade was taken out by Luke Patrick with a superb Nett 65. B Grade, and the Medal, went to the 'old-stager', Barry Le Gassick, with a fantastic Nett 63. Great work, Bazza! The r/up on the day was Luke Atwell, also with a 65. Balls only paid out to 70, the lowest cut-off seen on M/Medal days for some time. NTPs were won by Luke Patrick (3rd), Ben Lord (5th), Kempton Senior (9th), Garthy (12th) and Peter Fox (15th).

MOTORING

Is your car on bag recall? Drivers nationwide are being urged to check whether their vehicle is affected under the recent mass recall of Takata airbags. With as many as four million cars estimated to be affected, there's a good chance many Yarra Ranges' drivers will be affected by the largest recall in Australian history. An estimated two in every seven vehicles may need to be recalled. The recall became public on Wednesday 28 February; after details emerged the defective Takata airbags have caused more than 23 fatalities worldwide and 230 serious injuries. This includes one death in Australia. Because not all vehicles may be recalled straight away, consumers should also subscribe to receive updates about future recalls on our website and check the supplier's 'recall initiation schedule' on the supplier's website, when available (it must be available by no later than 1 July 2018). A subset of Takata airbags called 'alpha' are considered to pose the highest safety risk of all the recalled Takata airbags. The Assistant Minister to the Treasurer, Michael Sukkar, has issued a compulsory recall for all vehicles with defective Takata airbags, after an ACCC safety investigation. Meanwhile, the RACV wants prompt action by vehicle manufacturers to replace faulty airbags in recalled vehicles, after the Federal Government's compulsory recall. In July last year, RACV called for the Federal Government to place a greater emphasis on the voluntary recall of defective airbags announced at that time. RACV has since been putting pressure on manufacturers to speed up the process for replacing defective Takata airbags. The move by the Government to recall these vehicles demonstrates the danger this

Check if your vehicle in on the airbag recall list. 178311 issue presents. Michael Case, RACV's Vehicle Engineering Manager said, "RACV is pleased to see the Federal Government finally taking action to address this serious safety issue. Now it is time for vehicle manufacturers and vehicle dealers to urgently replace these airbags so motorists can feel safe in their vehicles". "RACV urges Victorians to check whether their vehicle is affected by visiting the Product Safety Authority website. If your car, motorcycle or truck is on the list, call your local dealership or manufacturer immediately to arrange

to get these airbags replaced," Mr Case said. "We acknowledge this recall will no doubt come as an inconvenience to many Victorians whose vehicles are affected. RACV urges Victorians not to interfere with the safety features of their vehicles as any tampering could pose a serious safety risk to motorists and other road users. "RACV supports the Australian Competition and Consumer Commissions' recommendation for people with Takata Alpha airbags to not drive the affected vehicles due to their critical safety risk.

"It is important for Victorian consumers to know that replacing affected airbags is free of charge, even if you bought the car secondhand." Victorians concerned as to whether their vehicle is affected by the recall, can visit the Product Safety Authority website at www. productsafety.gov.au.
