Koories ready to rip up Bells Reigning open men's champion Otis Carey will be among competitors returning for a seventh annual Australian Indigenous Surfing Titles at Bells Beach this week. The event faces its own challenge, though, with small waves forecast after a run of big (Elley Harrison/Surfing Victoria) surf this week.

Commissions feared illegal

By Luke Voogt About 140 real estate agents in Geelong could be at risk of losing commissions after a property dispute exposed a flaw in a commonly-used sales form. The Court of Appeal last month ruled that Real Estate Institute of Victoria’s (REIV) exclusive sales authority contract form was noncompliant with legislation. The decision could expose the REIV’s 5000 members, including about 140 in Geelong, to home-sellers suing for their commissions back. SLF Lawyers has issued writs on behalf of a real estate franchise to REIV and Consumer Affairs Victoria (CAV), which approved the form. Continued to page 2

From front page “A lot of agents are going to lose their commissions,“ said firm partner John Gdanski. Mr Gdanski declined to say which agent he was representing but confirmed his client was “substantial“ and sold properties in Geelong. “(The decision) affects every agent in Victoria that has used that form,” he said. The Melbourne law firm received a memorandum of advice that claimed both REIV and CAV had breached their legal obligations to agents and vendors, The Age reported on Wednesday. “Onus of responsibility was on the authorities,” Mr Gdanski told the Indy. “What we’re doing by taking an action against the authorities is a big-picture thing.” In August 2017 an agent from Ray White St Albans sued over a client’s failure to pay a $385,000 commission on an $8.8 million sale of a Keysborough industrial site. But County Court ruled the shorter version of the contract, which the agent used, failed to comply with the Estate Agents Act. The agent challenged the decision but lost on appeal. The decision provided a legal basis for sellers to claw back commissions even when agents acted in good faith, property law expert Robert Hay told The Age this week. “There could be lots of innocent agents, who could be dis-gorged of their commissions,” he said. An industry source told the Indy three Melbourne sellers were trying to get their comissions back through the “technical breach“ but was unaware of similar incidences in Geelong. The source warned that sellers could sue for “years of commissions” without the Victorian Government introducing retrospective legislation to address the flaw, which involved the shorter contract failing to include a required statement on rebates. An REIV spokesperson warned local agents to check that all authority documents complied with the law “whatever the source.”

FoI implies monitor ‘coffee-shop’ talks By Luke Voogt Geelong's council monitors have failed to file written reports with State Government despite costing ratepayers thousands of dollars, a Freedom of Information (FOI) request has revealed. Lawyer and former Geelong mayor Stretch Kontelj was “staggered” to discover that the two state-appointed monitors had failed to send a single letter, email or report on the performance and operation of council. “The ratepayers of Geelong deserve more for the ($2400) per day charge rate being earned by the two monitors,” he said. Mr Kontelj lodged an FOI request for copies of such correspondence in February and received a response on 2 May. Local Government Victoria found no documents “relevant to the request” despite a “thor-

ough and diligent search,” the response read. “If that’s the case, I question the role of the monitors,” Mr Kontelj said. “(My) concern is that the monitors are clandestinely reporting their observations to local members of government in secret coffee shop meetings.” But ratepayers had a right to know if council was doing a good job, so they could hold City Hall to account, Mr Kontelj said. “As matters stand, the ratepayers are paying the monitors’ fees, but not receiving any feedback in return. This isn’t transparent democracy.” State Government last year appointed Jude Munro and Peter Dorling to monitor Geelong’s newly elected council. Ms Munro would work two days a week for $2400 while Mr Dorling would work one day a fortnight for $1200, State Government stated

at the time. Then Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins said the cost for both monitors “would be capped at $480,000” over three years. Ratepayers Geelong president Andrew Senia described the monitors as a waste of ratepayer money. “Why are we paying such a large amount of money when it certainly seems the monitors are not needed?” he asked. “The evidence, as I read it, is that they haven’t contributed. So why are the ratepayers paying for their salary?” Ratepayers Geelong was doing a better job of monitoring council without charging “a cent”, he added. Mr Dorling failed to respond to the Indy’s requests for comment before it went to press yesterday.

New cash GROWs jobs for disadvantaged A program creating jobs in the region’s mostdisadvantaged areas has won another financial windfall. State Government will give an additional $750,000 to G21 Region Opportunities for Work (GROW) after granting the program $1 million for its first five years, from 2016 to 2021. Other organisations have committed several million more dollars to GROW since its foundation in 2014. Give Where You Live Foundation and G21 Geelong Region Alliance, a grouping of five local municipalities, established the scheme to encourage sourcing of supplies and labour in areas with high unemployment rates. Whittington, Norlane and Corio are the programs “target” areas, along with Colac. GROW was delivering results, said Give Where You Life Foundation chief Bill Mithen. “Earlier this month GROW announced outcomes based on expenditure data collected from 16 … signatory organisations, showing a $20.2 million increase in local procurement, leading to 179 jobs in the region broadly over a 12-month period,” Mr Mithen said. “Most importantly, we reported 75 on-theground specific jobs in disadvantaged target communities. “Collectively, for every $1 million spent locally about 8.84 new jobs can potentially be created. And there are obvious commercial benefits for those companies agreeing to procure locally wherever possible.” The latest state money would “help secure GROW’s work” in the region, Mr Mithen said. “Today’s announcement will go a long way to ensuring GROW continues to benefit the region but specifically those in disadvantaged areas. Some 82 businesses and other organisations have signed the GROW compact in the G21 re-

IN BRIEF ‘Burglars’ busted Police have retrieved almost $50,000 cash along with jewellery burgled from a Lara household after checking three “known male persons” at Geelong Railway Station. The officers arrested the three on Thursday, with one bailed and the other two remanded in custody to appear in court over the Evergreen Court heist, police said.

Rubbish strategy Rubbish will stop going to local tips “altogether” under a proposed council strategy for greater Geelong. The “ambitious” plan would require households to “take individual responsibility” for their rubbish as council provided leadership on reducing waste, Mayor Bruce Harwood said.

Pair wanted Geelong police are hunting two people with a combined 16 warrants for arrest. Shannon Hart, 39, and Janice Brown, 26, were on the run separately with eight warrants each, police posted on social media this week alongside a call for reports of their whereabouts to Crime Stoppers.

Office sale Geelong’s historic former post office cost $27,000 more than it made in rent when last fully occupied and needs a $3.7 million upgrade to meet “modern standards”, council has revealed. Councillors are seeking public feedback on selling the building as its last City Hall tenants prepare to move out, with the proceeds earmarked for other heritage properties such as North Geelong’s Osborne House.

Diabetes assessments A pharmacy will offer free type-two diabetes risk assessments at Bell Park Football Club this Saturday. Participants deemed at risk would then be offered a “simple” blood test to determine whether a GP referral was necessary, said pharmacist Glenn Bennett-Hullin.

Limit cut VicRoads has cut the speed limit through one of the region’s most dangerous intersections. The limit was down from 100km/h to 80km/h for 700 metres either side of the intersection of Granite and Geelong-Bacchus Marsh roads after three serious smashes between 2012 and 2017, VicRoads said.

hard-slog put in by G21 and Give Where You Live Foundation with the support of local businesses and organisations has shown what’s possible and has inspired others to follow.” The State Government has also announced plans to roll out the program in other Victorian areas, with Ballarat and Gippsland first in line.

Geelong’s council is “narrowing” its options to central Geelong for a new headquarters to consolidate its numerous offices, according to Mayor Bruce Harwood. He said councillors were “noting” two City-owned sites in Gheringhap and Mercer streets while seeking expressions of interest to develop the building, although their predecessor administrators earmarked the latter as the only option.

Architecture finalists Kardinia Park’s football stadium and Barwon Water’s new headquarters have been shortlisted for state architecture awards. Organisers announced on Thursday that both buildings were among 108 contenders across 14 categories in the 2018 Victorian Architecture Awards, with winners announced on 29 June.

Sky high for kids of 3214 By Luke Voogt Northern Bay College student Gypsy Akhyar wants “to get out of 3214” but only so he can return to inspire others. “I want to come back one day so someone can see what I’ve done,” the 17-year-old Norlane maths enthusiast said. Gypsy was one of 22 students who received financial support in the first Geelong trial of a program supporting high-achievers from disadvantaged areas. His parents would do anything for his education, he said ahead of a function celebrating the trial’s first year on Thursday night. “If I ever needed anything for school my parents would go without rather than see my education suffer,” he said. “It took a heavy financial toll on our family. We’re not super well-off.” The price included putting off buying a house as the cost of textbooks went “through the roof,” Gypsy said. But Skyline Foundation had helped Gypsy to pursue his love of maths, he said. “Skyline isn’t only about the financial aspect, it’s so much more.“ The foundation’s practice exams and study guides would help Gypsy “pass VCE with flying colours,“ he said. He and his fellow ’Skyliners’ motivated each other in their “dreams to become something extraordinary,” he added. Gypsy hoped to study maths at the University

of Melbourne and inspire Northern Bay College students to follow him. “We don’t get the highest ATARs but a lot of the (college’s) money goes into counselling for students in need,” he said. He shared his story after college principal Fred Clark this week called for $1000 sponsorships to provide textbooks and internet at home for disadvantaged students. “3214 is a pretty disadvantaged community not all students have these opportunities that I have,” Gypsy said. “They get stuck in this endless loop of, ‘my (parents) didn’t pass high school why should I? I should just work (in fast food).’” Reports emerged this week that half the college’s students had experienced family violence or conflict by 12-years-old and by 16 half knew where to find drugs. While not a drug user Gypsy admitted he “definitely“ knew where to get them. “I know students who smoke and do drugs,” he said. “It’s just a way of coping but it ruins their academic performance.“ The Skyline Foundation supported students at Northern Bay College and Newcomb and Surf Coast secondary colleges in the pilot, chief executive officer Jane Sydenham-Clarke said. Deakin University, local businesses and “high net-worth individuals” had generously supported the cause, she said.

DREAMING BIG: Norlane student Gypsy Akhyar is getting ahead with help from a foundation which recently expanded into Geelong.

Fountain closures spread as more contamination found Lead contamination has forced City Hall to close more drinking fountains, with 80 now off limits to the public. City Hall announced on Wednesday that completed testing had extended the closures beyond the 30 fountains turned off last week. The detected lead levels were above the guidelines of the Federal Government’s National Health and Medical Research Council for Australian drinking water. The City has engaged plumbers to turn off a number of public drinking fountains this week

following the return of all test results,” City Hall said. “The process of disabling fountains means that this could take up to a week to complete. Disabled public drinking fountains will be tagged as out of order. A list of fountains with excessive lead levels was available at geelongaustralia.com.au/ publicdrinkingfountains, City Hall said. “It’s important to note that water supplied by Barwon Water is completely safe to drink. “This is not an issue related to the quality of

water supplied by Barwon Water. This is issue with public drinking fountain infrastructure. “We have been working closely with public health experts at Victoria’s Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) on this matter. People don’t need to worry if they’ve recently used a public drinking fountain in greater Geelong.” City Hall said the Australian drinking water guidelines for lead were “very conservative” so they protected the most-vulnerable consumers such as young children and pregnant women.

“While the levels of lead detected are above the health guideline value in the … guidelines, they are not of immediate concern as drinking water fountains are not the main source of drinking water. “We’re conducting a thorough investigation into this situation and are working with health and industry experts, including DHHS, the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning (DELWP), Barwon Water and the Victorian Building Authority to identify the cause of the lead found in our public drinking fountain water.”

Space call’s big backers By Luke Voogt A call to bring a new Australian Space Agency to Geelong has received support from Mayor Bruce Harwood and local municipal alliance G21. The Federal Government has announced $26 million to establish the 21st Century agency but is yet to name its permanent location. Cr Harwood backed former mayor Darryn Lyon’s call on the front page of last week's Indy to make Geelong the agency’s home. “I think we’re in a position now where there’s not much we can’t actually lobby for, particularly when it comes to advanced manufacturing,“ he said. Local research facilities and IT professionals moving to work in Geelong also put the city in a “strong position” for future discussions, Cr Harwood said. Cr Harwood would talk with local federal and state MPs to see whether they had a “genuine belief” in a Geelong bid, he said. G21 would “fully support“ any bid to establish the Australian Space Agency in Geelong, chief executive officer Elaine Carbines said. “Our research capabilities through Deakin University, CSIRO and other institutions are enormous, as are our manufacturing capabilities. “We’ve proven our ability to host national agencies with the establishment of the National Disability Insurance Agency in Geelong.“ A bid for the space agency would require

support from the Victorian Government, she added. Ms Carbines will next Monday lead a Geelong delegation to Canberra for Federal funding to match the Victorian Government’s $153.2 million for a City Deal. Weeks later she will join a City Hall-led trip lobbying the Commonwealth to move public sector insurer Comcare to Geelong. But neither delegation would lobby for the space agency on the Canberra trips because they both had a “sole focus,” Ms Carbines said. Australian Space Agency boss Megan Clark would advise the Federal Government on the “most strategic” location following consultations with state governments, an agency spokesperson said. The spokesperson declined to rule out possible locations for the agency following its first six months operating from Canberra. The agency could provide a significant jobs windfall for a city or region that secures it permanently, with federal Innovation Minister Michaela Cash predicting that Australia's space industry would employ 20,000 workers by 2030. "Why wouldn't you want it here," Mr Lyons said last week. But any Geelong bid would face still opposition, with other reports last week saying Western and South Australian governments were lobbying "heavily" to host the agency ahead of New South Wales and Victoria.

Anxiety over for Searcher By Luke Voogt Emma Monoghan could only dream of singing in front of a crowd last year when the thought of school alone would make her vomit with anxiety. But the Drysdale teen is regaining her confidence after making the finals of the Highton Rotary Star Search. “If someone had said to me last year, ‘Go into the Star Search,’ I couldn’t have because I’d be too scared,” the 15-year-old said. The thought of getting onstage never used to scare Emma in primary school. “Ever since I was little, if I was sad I would just sing,” she said. “Singing has always been good therapy. It just makes everything good.” But getting “left behind” when she started year 7 shattered her confidence. “Everyone thought I was a freak because I was shy,” she said. “I ended up sitting alone - I didn’t really have anywhere to go.” The bullying worsened, with one student telling her “nobody likes you and nobody would care if you just went away tomorrow,” she said. “That was one of the most hurtful things anyone said.” Eventually the bullying caused her to take some time off last year. “Sometimes I would be so anxious to go to school I would vomit,” she said.

But Emma’s life turned around when her mum moved her to Geelong High School, where she reunited with her best friend from grade two. Her music tutor Chelsea Gibb encouraged her to enter the Star Search and sing power ballads in her “jazzy” voice. “So I did! And I got to finals - which was really unexpected!“ Emma said. “I was going to my new school, I was happy, I had my friends and I was singing again. “Mum said that I did well, but I felt I looked a bit awkward on stage. I still have confidence issues because of the memories from my old school.” The year 10 student will join about a dozen of Geelong’s most promising singers in the finals of the Star Search at Sacred Heart College on 2 June A win would boost her confidence “100 levels” but she was up against tough competition, she said. “I’m not going to think (about winning) in case it doesn’t happen.” Emma hoped for career as a singer songwriter after the competition, like past winner Missy Higgins, who went on to become an Aussie music icon. “If I made it, I would be able to talk to someone like me and say, ’You can do it!’“ Emma said. “That’s what I would like to be for someone who didn’t have someone like Chelsea or my mum.”

Local battery breakthrough

Funds bid to cover Bell Park’s women Council will seek state help to build “femalefriendly” change rooms at Bell Park Sports Club where a shortage of facilities forces women soccer players to change in cars. Sports Minister John Eren said his government would “welcome” council’s application for joint funding but failed to outline any support he would provide as the club’s local state MP. Councillors agreed this week to apply for $250,000 from the Victorian Governments World Game Facilities Fund (WGFF). The fund accepted applications from councils for up to $250,000 for soccer club projects, council said. Council would allocate $270,000 to the project if the state application was successful, with the club providing the remainder of funding through cash and in-kind contributions. The $810,000 project would deliver two sets of unisex change rooms and amenities, umpire change rooms and a first aid area for the club’s 60-plus female members. The facilities were “much-needed”, council said. Eight clubs expressed interest in the state grant but councillors decided to apply on Bell Park’s behalf, council revealed. Bell Park’s submission “strongly aligned with council policy and the WGFF criteria”, would result in “clear female participation outcomes” and included “well-developed” plans and costings, council said. Mayor Bruce Harwood said council needed help keeping up with demand for facilities from growth in women’s sport.

We welcome council’s application and will continue working to level the playing field and make grassroots clubs like Bell Park Sports Club stronger,” he said.

Geelong research could deliver cheaper, safer batteries for everything from mobile phones to household storage. Deakin University said the technology provided an alternative to lithium-ion batteries, plagued by problems such as explosions and environmental harm. The new sodium-ion batteries were the work of Deakin’s Waurn Ponds-based Battery Technology Research and Innovation Hub, the university said. The sodium-ion breakthrough promised to be “cheaper and safer” than lithium-ion. “Sodium-ion batteries aren’t affected by the explosive problems plaguing lithium-ion, which caused massive recalls and bans of certain model phones on some airlines in 2016,” Deakin said. “Sodium-ion batteries are also capable of charging and discharging at higher rates.” Sodium-ion batteries could be made using readily-available materials without costly, environmentally-harmful and ethically-dubious mining for rare materials such as cobalt, said the hub’s director, Professor Maria Forsyth. “Unlike lithium-ion batteries, the key components of sodium-ion batteries are synthesised from low-cost, abundant materials with secure supply chains,” Prof Forsyth said. “There’s a lot of opportunity here because of the cost benefits and availability." Professor Forsyth said the commercial potential of sodium-ion battery research had aroused interest, “which was the next step in order to take the technology to consumers”. “Given the significance of reliable and sustainable energy to the modern world, the development of energy storage solutions is critical. Batteries are an inseparable part of this, and as society continues to grow and evolve, so too must battery technologies,” she said.

But Jemma’s eyes lit up when she saw her Starlight bedroom renovation. “That’s so awesome, I’m so happy,“ she said seeing the striped walls and huge bunk bed. Burbank will sponsor similar makeovers to modify bedrooms for treatment and rehab, or simply create a special retreat, Mr Sanfilippo explained. “It’s the perfect way for our skills to be utilised for a philanthropic cause,” he said. Next week's free event features hot donuts and coffees for a small donation and appearances by the FOX FM Black Thunders team and Starlight mascot StarMan.

300 to lose jobs as city hospital shuts Geelong could lose almost 300 jobs with the city’s private hospital to close following an announcement by its operator on Tuesday. Healthscope will “sensitively and respectfully” close Geelong Private Hospital over the next four weeks, chief executive officer Gordon Ballantyne announced. “While the decision to close Geelong Private has been a very difficult one for Healthscope, this decision was only reached after extensive consideration of alternative options for our business.” Geelong Private Hospital opened in 1998 and Healthscope took over operations in 2013. The 107-bed private hospital employs 293 people and provides acute surgical, cardiac and medical care. The closure of the hospital reflected “a changed healthcare environment” in Geelong, Mr Ballantyne said. “Significant new hospital infrastructure development in Geelong in recent years means that clinicians and patients now have a range of other hospital treatment options.” Healthscope contacted all of its employees prior to the announcement, according to a company statement. “We are acutely aware that this will be a very difficult time for many of our staff,” Mr Ballantyne said. “We are working proactively with them to explore redeployment and relocation opportunities at other Healthscope locations including locally at the Geelong Clinic.” The company had also contacted patients at the hospital or with future treatment sched-

Healthscope would continue to run its 45bed private mental health hospital, the Geelong Clinic, Mr Ballantyne said. The company had invested in seven additional inpatient beds and extra consulting suites for the clinic, he added. Barwon Health declined to detail any plans to reemploy the private hospital’s staff. But a spokesperson encouraged them to apply for positions with Barwon Health “when they become available.“ Barwon Health would continue to operate

its imaging business, BMI, from the Geelong Private Hospital site, the spokesperson said. The health provider also uses theatres at Geelong Private Hospital to reduce its elective surgery waiting list. “We intend to work through the options that could allow us to continue this,” the spokesperson said. Barwon Health had undertaken consultation to “explore opportunities“ to use the site “for the betterment of the community,” the spokesperson said. “The Geelong community deserves access to affordable, high quality, and safe care.”

Theft call for Ocean Grove A spate of thefts from vehicles and homes in Ocean Grove has prompted calls for increased vigilance among residents. The number of residential burglaries and theft from motor vehicles has increased in Ocean Grove over the past four weeks, according to police. The area recently recorded five residential burglaries and 14 motor vehicle thefts, nearly all at night. The offenders targeted residential premises, houses under construction, holiday homes, police reported. Motor-vehicle thefts were most prevalent in streets, driveways and carports of residential premises. Police also reported an increase in burglaries on houses under construction or renovation, with power and hand tools commonly stolen. Bellarine Police Senior Sergeant Sean Drew said the thefts appeared to be random. “They’ve been more opportunistic thefts and at this stage we don’t believe it’s targeted,” he said. Senior Sergeant Drew recommended that tradies ensure their work utes and trailers are properly locked at night. “It’s about securing vehicles and not leaving anything of value inside,” Sen Sgt Drew said. “We’re going to have proactive patrols in the areas that have been hit.” Residents should park their vehicles in garages or behind closed gates, Sen Sgt Drew advised. A sensor floodlight in any driveway where a vehicle was parked was also a great deterrent to anybody loitering around, he said. Sen Sgt Drew also suggested that houses under construction should be secured correctly every evening. Police recommended that tradespeople should delay installing electrical house fittings such as dishwashers, hot water systems, stoves and air conditioning units until just before handover of the property if possible.

Geelong Reﬁnery update Message from Thys Heyns

A REFINERY IS ALWAYS A BUSY PLACE AND THE START TO 2018 HAS BEEN NO DIFFERENT. Apart from operating safely and reliably, our key priorities at Geelong Reﬁnery remain unchanged. These priorities are our investment program and our business improvement plan, both of which are designed to support Viva Energy’s commitment to keep manufacturing in Geelong.

Don’t be alarmed Every Tuesday at 9:00am the refinery’s alarm is tested. Alarms are part of the refinery’s safety system and are only intended for on-site personnel, so community members do not need to take any action if the alarm sounds. In the unlikely event of an emergency requiring community action, the CFA will provide direction. If you do have a concern about operations at the refinery you can call our 24 hour community line on 1800 651 818.

Our major growth projects for 2018 include a new $15M bitumen import/ export facility. As the only Australian manufacturer of bitumen, this is an exciting project that will enable us to supply more customers with this important product made right here in Geelong. Foundations have been laid for our new 25 million litre gasoline tank and we are in the midst of a Crude Distillation Unit turnaround which includes a $7M revamp of the unit’s furnace to improve process safety, increase production and deliver important energy efﬁciencies. An area of current focus for our improvement plan is the modernization of our Operations function. The changes we are implementing include additional skills training and the introduction of new technology and advanced manufacturing processes that will make operational tasks simpler, safer, and more efﬁcient. These changes are vital to ensure we remain competitive and to bring our operations in line with best practice. All our plans for a sustainable future are not just important for Victoria’s

Advanced manufacturing We have been part of the Geelong community for over 60 years and are proud that the refinery is a key driver of Victoria’s economy. While refining is a traditional manufacturing industry, new innovative technology is also part of how we do business and how we’re building a long-term sustainable refinery. We are progressively installing smart sensing hardware across

fuel supply security, but vital for the 700 people who work here. Geelong Reﬁnery continues to foster skills development and employment through our apprentice program and I was proud to attend the graduation of ﬁve of our apprentices earlier in the year. It’s a big achievement and I wish them the very best in their careers. I am also proud of our current apprentice Katrina Palmer, who has recently won both a place at the national WorldSkills Championships

as well as winning a Safety Award at the recent GForce Awards night. These are achievements that inspire me to do all I can to keep this reﬁnery manufacturing in Geelong. Finally, I want to thank all our people who donated time, money and goods for our recent Good Deeds week. It was wonderful to see so many of our people generously helping out and raising money for our community partners.

the refinery to provide better and faster data about key operating units. On our bitumen unit we are trialing Permasense™ technology, an innovative wireless integrity monitoring system that provides realtime data. These new instruments provide opportunities to run the refinery more safely, more efficiently and to increase production. To support these high-tech devices, last year we designed and installed a site-wide industrial WiFi network. The network removes the need for expensive cabling through the use of wireless smart sensors.

ON GRADE, ON TEMPERATURE, ON TIME Bitumen needs to be kept at a temperature of 1550C to remain fluid enough to be transported. Our new bitumen export line will incorporate an extensive heating system powered by steam to maintain this temperature and allow the bitumen to flow. It will need to travel from process units to storage tanks, then through 1.4km of pipeline and onto ships fitted with special heated compartments.

Water recycling anniversary At Geelong Refinery, we need a lot of water to produce steam for driving machines and heating oil. Every drop we can save or recycle means more fresh water for the local community. Roughly 90 per cent of the water used at Geelong Refinery is recycled water from the Northern Water Plant, saving 1.5 billion litres of drinking water annually – or the equivalent of the amount of water used by 10,000 homes each year. Celebrating it’s fifth birthday last month, the plant was the result of a successful partnership between the Geelong Refinery, state and federal governments and Barwon Water.

LETTERS Sitting, not serving Keith Oakley raised some important points in last week’s Geelong Indy (Letters, 18 May). We call our politicians public servants, or describe them as being elected to public office. Australians pay their politicians’ wages, superannuation and all the lurks and perks they enjoy. Effectively, they are our employees and are supposed to work for us and the common good. Unfortunately, time and again we see them not do the job Australians elected them to do. Not responding to correspondence from a constituent is clearly a failure. It's an election year, so maybe it's time for our politicians to lift their game. Oh, that's right, they tend to get complacent when they’re the sitting member of a safe seat, don't though. Hmm. If they keep this up the seat might not be that safe after all.

Pay after parking I recently parked in on-street parking on Fenwick St, Geelong, to attend Geelong courts as a support person for a victim of crime On-street metered parking requires an estimate of how long the park is required. Any underestimation risks a substantial fine. I paid $5.60, which allowed approximately 1.5 hours. On arrival at court we found there had been an administrative adjournment, so we returned to the vehicle only 10 minutes after parking. That equated to $33.60 an hour! Considering parking charges nowadays, surely a new system of paying at end of time needs to be put in place, similar to Myki. I’m sure I’m not alone when it comes to being a victim of council profiteering. Paul Anstis Bell Post Hill

Gender on agenda

1238631-RC32-16

It seems that Victoria’s education agenda is all about gender or, more accurately, no gender. This week we learned of left-wing social policee rummaging through schools, kindergartens and libraries to remove books referring to boys and girls. This audit was based Australian National University research finding that gender stereotyping influenced young children. The problem is that our world is made up of boys and girls, men and women. We couldn’t have made it this far without boys and girls becoming men and women. What is wrong is that the inward-looking socialist Safe Schools agenda is dumbing down our education system. Instead of learning the three Rs, students learn we are all the same and that our differences can’t be celebrated or respected. Difference and inclusiveness are what we should be celebrating. We are not all the same, nor do we want to be. We also celebrate what unites us: our humanity, our time on Earth together, our efforts to make it a better place. Billions of dollars more are now spent on Victoria’s education system in Victoria for a result of confused teachers, lower standards and more bureaucrats.

Ewe beauty, Sarah Corangamite MP Sarah Henderson is to be commended for her support of fellow Liberal MP Sussan Ley's private members bill to phase out long-haul live exports. Media feedback to the recent graphic footage of the trade was palpable. Despite the public's outrage, the McCarthy review’s recommendations to placate widespread concerns were really little more than an economic compromise and window dressing. While Western Australian farmers, with an oversupply of sheep in the short-term, would be financially disadvantaged by closure of live exports, the federal coalition's four-fifths-ofnothing response remains short sighted given the national electorate’s expectations. Ms Henderson was correct in advocating the benefits of value-adding and selling chilled product at an enhanced price. This would bring about a humane supply > chain, jobs and better returns for farmers. Australian food bowls are clean, green and bountiful. Along with our natural resources, their products should be value-added onshore. Hopefully Ms Ley's bill will gain momentum and support among not only among her parliamentary colleagues but also on a bipartisan basis. Richard Worland Manifold Heights

Antagonism questioned I congratulate Geelong Mayor Bruce Harwood on his careful handling of question time and of the public at council. No complaints system is given for resolving disputes in notes issued to the public but Cr Harwood has agreed at council to have this amended. My complaint is that members of the public are allowed three minutes for one question only, and the given list of misdemeanours disallowed is very harsh, including slander, anything offensive, anything embarrassing, and other sundries. Vilification of the public of this sort is, ironically, just what council itself wishes to avoid in question time. This is a classic case, along with the “you are welcome to ask questions” notes to the public, of what is meant is not said and what is said is not meant. This is conducive of antagonism rather than mutual respect. Peter Linaker Ocean Grove

I, Turnbull Malcolm Turnbull comes across to me as some sort of an automaton, lacking any sort of empathy or feeling for the general population, particularly the working poor. I am not yet ready to be ruled by a robot. Michael J Gamble Belmont

Ability has merit Over the past decade Australia has faced massive shortcomings among our state and federal politicians. We, the public, don’t care what gender our politicians are. We want the best candidates, who have common sense and success achieved on merit. We don’t want their positions gifted because of their gender when the quality of the politicians we have is so low already. Darryl Rowe Clifton Springs

As VicHealth CEO, readers would think I had no problem being physically active. But reality hit several years ago when I was afraid to do something I’d always wanted to do: windsurfing. I’d had lessons and bought the gear but when I got to the beach I couldn’t get out of the car. I was worried what people would think. In the end I took a deep breath, got out and I’m proud to say I now love getting out on the water whenever I can. According to VicHealth research, I’m no different to over half of Victorian women who worry about being judged when exercising. We worry more than men about how we look, about being unfit, and we find it hard to go back to exercise when we haven’t done it for a while, particularly after kids. For more than 40 percent of us these feelings are so strong they stop us taking part in sport or exercise. That’s why our new This Girl Can - Victoria campaign is so important. The campaign’s about empowering women to feel comfortable in their bodies and public spaces. It aims to motivate women to get active, no matter how they look, how good they are or how sweaty they get. This Girl Can is about smashing stereotypes and the fear stopping women getting out there and giving it a go. Local women can get on board the campaign thisgirlcan.com.au.

Testing time for families Every child needs numeracy and literacy skills for a well-rounded education. Literacy and numeracy are universal building blocks that provide the foundation skills children need as they progress through school and beyond. NAPLAN is an important tool for parents and teachers to see how children are going in meeting important literacy and numeracy standards compared to other children. NAPLAN doesn’t test everything that happens in classrooms and isn’t intended to. It looks at literacy and numeracy. Parents of children who have taken NAPLAN will receive information on how they are progressing in literacy and numeracy and how this compares with other students. NAPLAN doesn’t replace regular in-class assessments but is the only national assessment that Australian children undertake. It allows for achievement to be celebrated and, equally importantly, helps identify areas where more support might be needed to help individual students reach their full potential. NAPLAN’s moved online this year will brings benefits of more-precise and detailed results for teachers and a more-engaging test for students. Regardless of whether children took NAPLAN online or on paper, the results will be comparable with those of other students and from previous years. Parents will receive NAPLAN results in August. Parents with concerns about the results should discuss them with their child’s teacher. Robert Randall Australian Curriculum, Assessment and Reporting Authority chief executive

DOUBLE TAKE

Residents winning hard-rubbish push Geelong residents could win their long fight for hard-rubbish collections after council this week agreed to a multi-million-dollar trial. Residents would book collections at-call from April next year as part of the 12-month trial, with council levying each tenement $6.80 to cover the cost. Community feedback led to councillors “strongly” driving the $3.75 million initiative, City Hall said. Council examined several options but favoured a booked service over a blanket service with set collection dates, the City said. Most other Victorian councils with hard-rubbish collections used the same model. Residents would be allowed to book one collection a year online or by phone, the City said. “Residents would have the option of having their waste collected from within their property boundary or from the kerbside. “It’s expected the booked service would also keep streetscapes looking cleaner, reduce the risk of theft and dumping, and allow greater opportunity for recycling.” The trial would cost council $750,000 next financial year and a further $3 million in 2019/2020, the City said. An additional full-time City employee and a third-party provider would deliver the service. Council’s environment and sustainability portfolio-holder justified the trial on community demand and environmental benefits. “All councillors received a strong message from the community that hard waste was a priority, which is why we’ve put it forward,” Cr Sarah Mansfield said.

DEMAND: Cr Sarah Mansfield said all councillors were aware of local demand for hard-rubbish collections.

“It has the potential to produce real environmental benefits by diverting materials that might otherwise be dumped or sent to landfill into recycling,” she said. “We’re looking forward to seeing it rolled out, and we encourage the community’s feedback. Geelong’s council has run a single hard-rubbish collection since municipal amalgamations in the early ‘90s, with residents calling for another ever since. The issue emerged again at council in 2013 but failed to gain the support of councillors, with the environment and sustainability portfolioholder of the time labelling the service “financially unviable”.

The collections would cost millions of dollars but residents would still continue dumping hard rubbish, Andy Richard said. Cleaning up illegal dumps, which was costing council $350,000 a year, would provide a better result, he said. Council will evaluate the results of the trial early in 2020, City Hall said. The City would run the collections in conjunction with existing waste disposal programs such as its offer to dump for free whitegoods, paint, scrap metals, oils, car batteries, gas cylinders, TVs and computers at Drysdale and Geelong tips.

A pair of scientific breakthroughs overshadowed another noteworthy achievement in the local research sector this week. While certain Deakin University boffins trumpeted breakthroughs in water filtration and battery technology, some Waurn Ponds colleagues struggled for acknowledgement of their victory against "annoying fuzzy balls”. Fuzzy what? Fuzzy balls, like on a tradie’s polar fleece, of course. Yes, the good folk at Deakin’s Institute for Frontier Materials unveiled NoFuzz, a treatment to prevent “that nasty pilling on your woollen jumpers and bedsheets”. Eureka! Freedom from pilling at last! Next: NoSag, a treatment to prevent baggy undies. Last week’s Indy story on ex-pollie Stewart McArthur running competitively in his 80s rekindled fond memories of another veteran local shuffler of even greater achievement. In response to the story, Petrina Dakin emailed about the reference to Beech Forest’s “legendary Cliff Young” - and to correct a myth about his ground-breaking 1983 run as a 61-year-old. “Great to be reminded about his stunning feat winning the Westfield ultra-marathon,” Petrina wrote. “However, he didn't do it in gumboots and overalls (his usual attire on the farm and on training runs). He ended up wearing a Tshirt, trakky daks and runners.” Given the run stretched 875km, too bad Deakin’s NoFuzz wasn’t around in the day to protect Cliff's trakkies from “fuzzy balls”! Ugly scenes at Leopold this week when a pizza delivery turned up way late at a residential address. The peeved customer was quick to let the young driver know of the unacceptable tardiness as he walked up the driveway. Forgetting that the customer’s always right, the driver gave back as good as he got before hurling a garlic bread at his client. Having fired his single steamy round, the youngster retreated to his vehicle and fled with the householder in hot pursuit. No that’s service with a snarl!

Beaut’ utes drive return

FROM THE BUSH: Lee Kernaghan is back in town next month.

radio show featuring chart-topping hits from Australia and US. He was about to head to Kununurra, WA, for the first show of the encore tour when he spoke to the Indy last week. “Then it’s back to old stomping ground,” said Kernaghan, who was born in Victoria. Geelong was one of the last few stops on the tour, he said. “Then it’s back to the recording studio for a new album.” Kernaghan has won ARIA awards and Australian of the Year, but a pyrotechnic mishap at the Gympie Muster remains a highlight of his career. When a device designed to shoot sparks from his guitar misfired he “hoicked” the instrument into the mosh pit, he said. “I remember it disappearing like a smoking, flaming wreck from a Mad Max movie.” Kernaghan’s other career highlight was writing his Spirit of the Anzacs album in 2015. In 2013 he visited the vaults of the Australian War Memorial and read letters from Australian servicemen and women dating back to Gallipoli. The letters inspired the album, which topped the ARIA charts for weeks. “That was the greatest privilege of my entire career,” Kernaghan said.

A “fine array of utes” will fill central Geelong when Lee Kernaghan comes to town - if his last visit was anything to go by. “They say Deniliquin is the ute capital of Australia but Geelong’s not far behind,” he told the Indy. Kernaghan enjoyed talking to the owners of an impressive range of rigs each time he came to Geelong, he said. “A lot of people come in from out of town. Geelong feels like the country sometimes.“ He has a list of 150 new song ideas, some of which came from chats with locals after performing at pubs around Australia. “One hundred and forty of them are complete rubbish but there would be some good ones in there.” He was at the Gateway Hotel, Corio, in February 2017 on a tour celebrating 25 years since the release his greatest hit Boys from the Bush. “This last year has been like a blur,” he said. “It’s just been an epic 25th anniversary celebration.” This year Kernaghan has hit the road on an encore tour, which brings him to Geelong Performing Arts Centre on 7 June. “We had 47 sold-out shows on the last run which is the reason we’re back,” he said. He had a short break before going on tour again, he said. “It’s been good to be able to get back to the gym and get fit for the road.” The Australian country icon also started a

Sense made ‘on steroids’ By Luke Voogt

SOCIAL CYCLONE: Rashidi Edward, Miranda Daughtry and Anna Steen in Sense and Sensibility. (Chris Herzfeld) the fringes of the novel often gets pulled into the central narrative in the play.” The play also heightened the “social anxiety” and gossip that Austen alluded to, Bookman said. “We’re distilling a massive dense book into a two hour and twenty minute play - it’s about the furthest thing from boring you can imagine.”

Bookman said his cast had worked to their “absolute limit” to create the play, which comes to Geelong for four shows between 7 and 9 June. “They’re so well drilled and good at it now it’s a really joyous play to perform.” About half of the 600-person audience for the play’s opening night in Adelaide were

young while the other half were elderly, Bookman said. The mixture of slapstick, wordplay and pop culture references in the script offered something for everybody, he said. “It’s a really super fun night at the theatre and we’re really looking forward to coming back to Geelong.”

12389163-CG21-18

A “cyclone” of slapstick and gossip whirls around the Dashwood sisters in a play director Geordie Bookman describes as “Jane Austen on steroids”. “They’re kind of the still point of the play and everything else is almost constantly moving around them,” he told the Indy on Monday. Bookman jumped at the chance to direct New York playwright Kate Hamill’s adaptation of the classic novel Sense and Sensibility. Hamill had added action to the book’s plot while “maintaining the heart of the original,“ Bookman said. “The play is irreverent and very silly - it goes at absolute break-neck speed.” But in his Australian production Bookman had used “pretty much every trick” to upscale the play, like taping Teflon skids to the bottom of furniture. “The furniture literally arrives at high-velocity being flung onstage,” he said. “You don’t get any moments for the stage crew to walk on and move equipment - the play doesn’t stop.“ Hamill wrote the show for a 200-seat theatre with a stage containing two pieces of furniture and a set of French doors, Bookman explained. “We have 30 scenes, 15 locations and most of the actors are playing four or five characters each,” he said. “But we’re tapping into the same spirit and inventiveness as her.” Hamill’s inventiveness included writing parts which Jane Austen left out including “one signature moment” when a character fails to find words, Bookman said. Hamill lifted words from another Austen novel, Emma, to fill that gap, he said. “Something that would have happened on

MARVELOUS MEDICINE: A Roald Dahl classic jumps off the pages onstage in Geelong on Saturday.

Just for kids George’s Marvellous Medicine jumps off the page on Saturday in two Geelong stage shows packed with mischief, magic and laughter. Queensland’s Shake & Stir Theatre Co recreates the book, which spawned from the whacky mind of legendary children’s writer Roald Dahl. The play begins when seemingly another boring day for George turns into a marvellous experiment of epic proportions. On a good day George cannot stand his grandma. She complains all the time, she's mean and smells funny. But this day she's more annoying than usual and George has had enough. “George, make me a cup of tea. George, rub my fee. George, stop growing,“ she cries.

Wanting to stop her nagging, George creates a special concoction that actually works, although not the way he expected. George’s Marvellous Medicine comes to Geelong Performing Arts Centre this Saturday direct from a sold-out season at Sydney Opera Housey. The onstage adaption features members of the award-winning team behind the Australian production of another Roald Dahl book, Revolting Rhymes & Dirty Beasts. Dahl published George’s Marvellous Medicine in 1981, with the book quickly became popular in UK primary schools. The book warns readers: "Do not try to make George’s Marvellous Medicine yourselves at home. It could be dangerous“.

HEALTHY LIVING

Norlane Dental now offers technology to create a flawless CEREC crown in single visit appointments for a beautifully restored tooth. “Norlane Dental surgery is one of the very few surgeries in Geelong that has acquired the technology to create a perfect fitting CEREC crown,” Senior Dental Surgeon at Norlane Dental Dr Rashi Gupta said. “Each crown will look and feel like a real natural tooth with aid of a computer in the surgery. “We can make same day crowns, therefore, lesser appointments, repeat numbing and no annoying temporary crowns. Cracked fractured teeth/amalgam fillings/discoloured teeth/smile designing - all this can be achieved within a day with this revolutionary technology. Dr Gupta explained the difference between Norlane Dental’s new technology and traditional methods.

“Many people are all too familiar with the traditional method of getting crowns,” Dr Gupta said. “They wait through a two to three week process of having the impression made, a temporary inserted, and finally the fitting and placement of a permanent crown. If the crown doesn’t fit just right, it has to be returned to the lab and the procedure starts all over again! “Fortunately, technology has caught up with dental crowns and our patients in Geelong can enjoy CEREC, same day crowns. With Norlane Dental, your CEREC dentist in Geelong, you can now have a perfect-fitting crown that looks great and functions like a natural tooth. With CEREC technology, we can create a permanent crown in minutes!” Norlane Dental Surgery is located at 124 Sparks Road in Norlane. For more information, phone 5278 2666. Alternatively, visit www.norlanedental.com.au.

Find relief at Geelong's Foot and Leg Pain Clinic.

Help with foot and leg pain Foot and Leg Pain Clinics can assist with common foot and leg concerns. The clinics have identified the most common concerns as: knee pain, injuries and arthritis; heel, shin and forefoot pain; and ankle and Achilles concerns. "Many conditions are misdiagnosed and incorrectly treated, so it’s important to find an experienced musculoskeletal or sports podiatrist to assist," says a spokesperson for the clinics. "Also, we advise that early symptoms of diabetes, arthritis, nerve and circulatory problems often show themselves initially in the feet, so treatment of any concerns is essential." Recent research indicates that traditional treatments, like cortisone, anti-inflammatory medications and joint arthroscopies, can actually delay healing or cause additional damage,

the spokesperson says. “That's why musculoskeletal medicine, regenerative therapies and injections, and biomechanical adjustment strategies are far better. “Most foot and leg concerns can be addressed relatively easily and effectively with appropriate treatment. This is why your choice of practitioner is so important.” Combining latest regenerative therapies with a sound knowledge of musculoskeletal medicine, biomechanics, and load management strategies, Foot and Leg Pain Clinics can assist with pain, increase mobility, repair injury and regenerate tissues to treat a variety of problems. Anyone mentioning this article receives $50 off their initial consultations at the Geelong clinic, phone 1300 328 300.

Improving a car’s power by up to 30 per cent while actually improving fuel economy sounds like a big ask for a Land Rover, BMW, Mini or Jaguar or other European marques. Not so, says Hunter Cuthill director Adam Hunter. It’s readily achievable by using top-line Autologic technology, he advises, adding that it’s also a sound way of ensuring efficiency performance in a more-sustainable fashion. Hunter Cuthill, in Geelong West’s Autumn St, specialises in quality independent servicing and repairs to all BMWs, Land Rover, Mini and Jaguars - as per factory schedules and directives and with full book service. The business also services car makes including Peugeot, Renault and Citroen. It is the only service centre in Geelong outside of direct dealers with the software and diagnostic equipment for these brands. “We utilise state of the art diagnostic equipment from Autologic, the world’s leading independent vehicle diagnostic software,” Adam says. “It’s the only independent tool that can program control units. Autologic also offer software power upgrades for diesel and some petrol engines, giving 30 per cent more power while improving fuel economy.” Hunter Cuthill is also right across the best battery choices to meet the energy demands of European cars. VARTA batteries, powered by AGM technology, feature advanced equipment such as start-stop technologies and regenerative braking systems. “This is a battery that delivers optimal performance, faster conductivity and reliable starting power, even when the charge is low,” Adam says. “AGM batteries deliver up to eight times the cyclic stability of conventional flooded batteries resulting in a longer battery life.” Hunter Cuthill is at 9 Autumn St, Geelong West, phone 5229 4299 or visit huntercuthill. com.au.

02 VW TRANSPORTER TDI 300 RPI 509 Blink and you may miss the changes to the Mazda CX-5 but the tweaks have added to its appeal.

A sporty take on Mazda SUV By Vani Naidoo So robust is the competition in the SUV market that even cars that would be technically considered quite new are having adjustments to prolong their appeal. The Mazda CX-5 is a case in point with the all-new model released in 2017 now getting a pair of new engines to keep it fresh. The changes are minimal of course, this is one of the brand’s best sellers after all, but those tweaks combined with a slight drop in price is likely to make converts of those “I’m gonna” buyers. The CX-5 is considered one of the better looking SUVs in this class with its wide grill, sleek lines and understated rear. Nothing has changed, either inside or out, in this latest iteration and to be fair, it didn’t really need to. Good quality materials and reasonable fit and finish complement a sharply-styled interior. The cabin is quietly comfortable with good storage options and a useful layout. The high centre console means that some of the infotainment buttons are not intuitively close to hand but by and large this is a driver-centric cockpit with all the ease of use that that brings. The cloth seats in our Maxx Sport test car were rather comfortable, supportive without being too firm and with enough width to accommodate wider shoulders. Space in the rear is not as generous as some rivals in this class but two kids won’t have much to complain about. The boot, too, is a touch on the smallish side. Still able to hold a decent grocery shop and a couple of bags but you are certainly are not going to lose anything in there. A good list of standard inclusions is what we have come to expect from Mazda, and this CX-5 doesn’t let anyone down with even the bottom-of-the-range Maxx Sport still featuring comforts such as sat nav, reverse camera, leather-wrapped steering, 17-inch alloys, LED headlights, dual-zone climate control and a well-rounded safety package. The CX-5’s 7.0-inch tablet-like touchscreen sits delicately poised at the top of the dash. While I tend to prefer integrated systems, this one feels premium rather than ad hoc with excellent graphics and good functionality too. Bluetooth connectivity is simple to establish,

Still no Apple CarPlay or Android Auto though which is a shame. The engines are where the changes can be seen in this CX-5 update. They are only small though so don’t expect any great revelations. The CX-5 range features two petrol engines, a 2.0-litre front-wheel-drive four-cylinder unit which has gained 1kW of power for a total of 114kW (200Nm) and the 2.5-litre all-wheel-drive four-cylinder that powered our car which has an additional 1Nm of torque (252Nm) and 140kW. The 2.5-litre petrol engine has a cylinder deactivation feature which allows it to run just two cylinders at low speeds improving fuel economy. The 2.2-litre all-wheel-drive diesel engine has been overhauled with power increasing from 129kW to 140kW and torque from 420Nm to 450Nm. With a drop in price and a little fine tuning, Mazda has ensured the CX-5 is an even more competitive proposition. Already a firm favourite with Australian buyers, the updated CX-5 is sure to add to the brand’s bottom line and is certainly worth a look if you are in the market.

Cats lose tackle as Blues back in town By Justin Flynn Nobody saw it coming. Not even the staunchest of Essendon fans really thought their side could roll Geelong after a week from hell. But it happened. The Bombers consigned Geelong to eighth spot on the ladder and win-loss record that sits precariously at five and four. It couldn’t happen again, could it? Never say never, but it’s highly unlikely. Geelong’s meeting with Carlton tomorrow night is at the safe confines of GMHBA Stadium and the Blues were trounced by more than a hundred points last weekend. However, Geelong will need to tackle more this week. The Cats lost the tackle count by a whopping 23 against the Dons. Nine players registered two tackles or less. Essendon’s GWS recruit Devon Smith laid 10 tackles himself. As coach Chris Scott said: “We didn’t execute any of the things we planned going in. We just couldn’t apply the requisite pressure that’s needed to beat a team that’s up and about.” Scott conceded his side was “obliterated” around the ball, but also praised Essendon’s game. Patrick Dangerfield, Joel Selwood and Mitch Duncan got plenty of the ball, but Tim Kelly, Gary Ablett and Sam Menegola could

MIDFIELD STAR: Mitch Duncan got plenty of the ball last week. only muster 16, 17 and 16 disposals respectively. The Cats struggled in front of goal. Five of their seven goals came from two players - Tom Hawkins with three and Dangerfield two. Two of Hawkins’ goals came in junk time during time on in the last quarter when the game was gone.

The Blues will regain Ed Curnow from suspension, which will give young gun Patrick Cripps some help in the midfield. Cripps was superb in the huge loss to the Demons with 31 possessions and nine tackles. Ruckman Matthew Kreuzer was down on form last week and Marc Murphy struggled, although he did lay 11 tackles. The Blues will just have to be patient and keep getting games into the likes of Sam Petrovski-Seton, Zac Fisher, Paddy Dow and Harry McKay. But the Blues are struggling to score goals as well. Ironically, both Carlton and Geelong scored 7.8.50, but it’s Geelong’s performance which looks the more likely to be an aberration. Carlton hasn’t played at Kardinia Park for premiership points since 1997 when the Cats prevailed by 28 points. It’s difficult to see how a light training run on the ground the day before the game will be enough for the Blues, who are lacking key personnel. Geelong will wear its 2018 Indigenous guernsey to mark the annual Djilang Round. Tomorrow’s game at GMHBA Stadium starts at 7.25pm. It’s hard to see anything other than a Geelong victory. But that’s what we said last week. We’re a little more confident this time. Cats by 39 points.

Snapper up around bay ON THE BITE Adam Van der Lugt Anglers faced off against tough conditions as relentless wind hit Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula again last week However, anglers at least enjoyed a nice increase in the size of snapper inside Corio Bay, with fish to 4kg taken near structure in deeper water. Land-based fishing was productive as well, with St Helens’ boat ramp rocks producing numerous good-size snapper and flathead to 50cm. Geelong’s waterfront was again a hot spot for pinkie snapper. Anglers walking and casting soft plastics did well when they covered as much water as possible to find schooling fish along with bags of flathead. Portarlington Harbour was a fantastic option for finding shelter from the weather. Along with pinkies and the occasional larger snapper, the harbour also produced flathead and squid. Local surf beaches continued fishing well for mulloway in excess of 1m in length. Fresh squid was the standout bait, with fishing high tide changes after dark giving the best chance of hooking into one of these highly prized fish. The small estuaries between Torquay and Apollo Bay produced quality bream on both lure and bait. Peri Stavropoulos did well over the weekend, banking numerous bream to over 40cm using unweighted scrubworms. As well as bream, very solid estuary perch were also caught. Nat Barry landed a monster 57cm fish using a bent minnow lure. Further west, Portland was the place to be for southern blue fin tuna to 20kg. Gone Fishing Charters’ Chris Vasilevski guided clients onto fantastic results, with trolled skirted lures accounting for most fish. Anglers lucky enough to come across a bust up also had luck while casting stick bait lures into the commotion. On the freshwater scene, recent rain had a positive effect on the trout. The Otway streams from Lorne to Aire River rose slightly, with a fresh, healthy flow bringing brown trout right on the bite. Casting small shallow-diving lures was highly effective, although anglers opting for fly had luck with small black or olive nymphs. Wurdibuloc Reservoir remained the best option for a feed of redfin or trout to 8lb. Casting metal spoon-type lures or soft plastics from the bank accounted for quality fish over 45cm. Of note, some anglers reported fishing for a while in the one spot until a school of redfin came past, resulting in catches of five to six fish.

UNITED: The North Geelong Warriors share some words during their victory against Werribee last weekend. (Ivan Dugandzic)

Warriors break streak, visitor’s continues By Josip Zilic Fortunes can turn on a sixpence, as North Geelong discovered after a late penalty ended its three-game losing streak last Saturday. The Warriors will hope for a similar fate as they head into their round 14 clash with Murray United this Saturday at Elcho Park. Murray United was experiencing good fortunes a few weeks back as it compiled points, and until recently was still in the FFA Cup. But it has since suffered three losses on the trot and will no doubt seek redemption in its away trip to Warrior heartland. Zac Walker and Tom Morrison will be the biggest threats, having scored 15 of Murray geelongindy.com.au

United’s 18 goals this year. Fortune spun the other way for North Geelong, which, like Murray, suffered three defeats before turning it around last weekend against Werribee. Interim Coach Nathan Rogers was delighted with the Warriors’ resolute defensive work. The midfield trio of Andrew Scicluna, Ryan Opperman and Damien Peters made turnover challenges higher up the park halting the opposition’s forward forays. It was a scrappy affair with neither side able to gain ascendancy throughout the match. Werribee made it a little easier for the Warriors when defender Sam McCall’s late chal-

lenge saw him sent off a few minutes before half time. But Werribee dug in and made it difficult for North Geelong to gain anything out of the extra man on the pitch until it gave away a late penalty. Darius Madison evaded one tackle and advanced into the box before another defender brought him down for the penalty. It was Madison who stood up to put the spot kick away and seal the victory in the 73rd minute. The developing under-20s squad experienced a stumble after a few good wins, going down 0-2 in their earlier match.
