I haven't seen the tail mounted as yet but I believe it is very close to it… - Ken Secretan
(John Lever), male crocodiles from Darwin back to Rockhampton," he said. "In Queensland, they can't legally catch crocs ... he's got agreements with other territories, Darwin and so on where they can." Ken says sometime rangers catch crocs if it's in a dangerous area and re-homed on farms for safe-keeping. "John and I will go up there, pick them up, two at a time, and cart them back because they're good breeding stock." His mate's farm, Koorana Crocodile farm, was opened in November 1981 and was the first commercial crocodile farm in Queensland. Ken says his croc tail is a saltwater breed, which he believes was a female given its size. The Akoonah Park Men's Shed manager Maurice Hall said: "We're really working out how we're going to mount it - we've come up with some ideas"

The boys at Akoonah Park Men's shed in Berwick certainly have their work cut out with this whopper. Their latest project - mounting the skin of a three-metre crocodile's tail onto timber - would even be one to impress Crocodile Dundee. The owner of the tail, Ken Secretan, said he got the tail from a mate who owns a crocodile conservation farm near Rockhampton. Ken, eager to decorate his back patio in Beaconsfield, said he was "over the moon" when his mate told him he had the "very thing" for him to put on his wall. "And he said 'I'll give it to you.'" He mate, John Lever, told him he had a dozen of the crocodile skins "ready to go." "I gratefully accepted it, and thought 'What am I going to do with it? How can I do it?'" "I thought of the Men's Shed so went down there and told them ... they were very excited about it," Ken says. "I haven't seen the tail mounted as yet but I believe it is very close to it." Through the help of his son, Ken found a timber yard in Brunswick where he picked up a long piece of hardwood. "Because it's most of a whole tree, fairly long, we chopped it up," he explained, so he could fit it in his car. "The wood is exactly the size I need for the tail," he says. Kens says he's looking at having a second piece of timber varnished so he can display photos of his adventures with crocs. "I've carted whole crocodiles with him

THREE … ways to avoid the flu
1
Get the flu shot seasonal flu shots protect against the most common strains of the virus going around that season. While the flu shot can cause side effects in some people, it cannot cause the flu. The flu shot has been shown to save lives and is a valuable defence against a potentially life-threatening virus.
2
Boost your immune system your immune system will be better able to fight germs and viruses if you maintain a balanced diet, exercise regularly, reduce stress and get plenty of sleep (between seven and nine hours a night is often recommended). And if you do get sick, make sure you stop and rest to give your body a chance to fight it off.
3
Mind your manners if you start to feel sick or run down, don’t spread it around! Stay away from work or keep the kids home from school for at least 24 hours after your fever has disappeared naturally so the germs don’t spread. Sneeze into your elbow and chuck out used tissues rather than leaving them lying around. Don’t forget to wash your hands too!

IN BRIEF
Mosque fight is on By Brendan Rees
Police have released images of two men they believe will be able to assist with their enquiries of a theft. Husband and wife Terry Ryan and Karen Ryan at their Narre Warren North paddock with Casey councillor Rosalie Crestani earlier this year opposing a mosque plan. 192837 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Casey deputy mayor Rosalie Crestani said the Islamic Council of Victoria was making comments in a "deliberate attempt to silence debate on genuine concerns of the residents." "Residents have said to me that regardless of the aesthetics, a large scale building is inappropriate for that site," the Rise Up Australia member said. When asked if she had concerns about the safety issues that come from Islamic extremism, Cr Crestani said: "Many residents have expressed to me that migrating from overseas, even from the UK, and settling in Narre Warren North and other parts of Casey, was attempting to get away from Islamic extremism." She added: "If some residents feel concerned
about Islam, they have a right to voice them." A prominent South East businessman, Adam Khan, said Cr Crestani needed to be held accountable due to her "fear mongering" and "pre-determined bias." "She has (been) documented as saying she will vote against any mosque. She cites terrorism as a possibility," he said. "The mosque had ticked all the boxes in terms of the law, both state and local. They complied over and beyond to what the expectations were - and those were the words of the mayor. Mayor Amanda Stapledon said she respected the objections but considered the plans of the mosque based on its "planning merits."
School set for wacky adventure
Puffer jacket stolen Police from Narre Warren are investigating a theft which occurred in June. The alleged theft occurred at a clothing store inside a shopping centre on Overland Drive about 4.15pm on 25 June. Investigators believe two men entered the store and a removed security tag on a jacket and then left the store without paying, police say. The jacket stolen was a black Winterburn long-line down puffer jacket. The men are believed to be aged in their twenties and were both wearing black pants, long sleeve high-vis jumpers and caps. Police have released images of two men they believe will be able to assist with their enquiries and are urging anyone with information to contact crime stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au

Opponents of a proposed mosque in Narre Warren North are taking their fight to the state's planning umpire declaring they will "look at every possible avenue to stop this." Neighbour Terry Ryan says the mosque was inappropriate for the rural area with hundreds of residents looking at seeking legal advice before taking the matter to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal. "We think council have made some errors ... we're going to take some advice and make sure our thinking's correct," he said. It comes after Casey councillors approved plans for a mosque application behind a closed door meeting at Bunjil Place, leaving dozens of people stranded outside the council chamber on Tuesday 16 July. The angry mob was forced to view a live broadcast of the meeting on a big screen in a room next door. Protester Valentina Crnkovic said the decision by councillors was "predetermined" with members of the gallery threatened by security "so we can't speak our minds." "They weren't making a decision in there that was already made, we're not dumb," she said. "This is all tactics that they're using, it stinks; they're not taking the 773 people's voices into account." Islamic Council of Victoria spokesman Adel Salman said the proposed mosque was a "very positive step forward" but added there was an "element of Islamophobia at play." "There are a lot of people who have genuine concerns which are legitimate and they should be heard," he said. "I definitely don't want to generalise but I think it's through the segment they are using these reasons as a cover for Islamophobia mindset."

Desperate hunt for home By Brendan Rees A South East pensioner who is the carer of her elderly parents says she's running out of options to put a roof over their heads. Linda Ashworth, 55, has been battling to find a two-bedroom unit and although they've been given priority on the social housing waiting list - that wait could be up to two years. "We've been staying with friends for a couple of weeks in Cranbourne East but like anything they're elderly; they need their lives back on track," she says. At the end of March there were 41,677 on the State Government's queue for public housing - with 21,713 being priority cases for people experiencing issues with disability, mental health, family violence or homelessness. The wait list is under pressure as private rents rise faster than wages, Newstart and
Commonwealth rent assistance. Cranbourne Information and Support Service's executive officer Leanne Petrides, who has been supporting Ms Ashworth, said Victoria's public housing shortfall of 103,800 highlighted a "desperate need" for more public and crisis housing. Ms Ashworth says they have furniture in storage and live out of plastic bags. And now they are faced with little option but to move into a motel by the end of the week. "Going into a motel means our pensions have to be used to pay for the motel," she says. Ms Ashworth said she's looked at many private rental properties but "there isn't a great deal out there that's affordable." "We've got to look for no stairs, and particular things in a rental property which makes the job that little bit harder.
"It's a no win situation," she says. Her mother Joyce, 81, and 88-year-old father John, who has a pace maker and is wheelchair bound, were in a retirement village in Pakenham until Ms Ashworth's sister bought her parents a home but when the "funds dried up she evicted them last December." Extended family in Doreen took them into their home but the commute to the south eastern suburbs for her father's medical appointments became too much. Ms Ashworth said she also met a "deadend" with WAYSS in Berwick, a service that helps people experiencing homelessness, as they could only offer a one bedroom cabin in Tooradin. "Because of my father's needs it's got to be a two bedroom cabin," she said. Ms Ashworth says they've contacted their
local members of Parliament "but can't seem to pull a rabbit out of hat." A Victorian Government spokesperson said the Department of Health and Human Services and emergency housing providers were working closely with the family to help them find short term accommodation until longer term public housing became available. "Public housing provides safe and secure shelter for Victorians who need it the most and we prioritise people managing health, ageing and disability issues such as these - we'll do everything we can to help," the spokesperson said. Ms Ashworth believes there should be more help offered for those in a similar situation. "When you've got a dad whose 88 you think to yourself we deserve a little bit better than this."
A plague of potholes By Danielle Kutchel and Mitchell Clarke
Left to right: Aaron Boutcher, Olivia Beckley and Mitchell Radley of Narre Warren South Scout Group head to the World Scout Jamboree.
Once in a lifetime Scout trip By Danielle Kutchel Narre Warren youths are among the 692-strong Australian contingent to the World Scout Jamboree 2019. This is a once in a lifetime trip for many of the young Scouts, who have descended on 'The Summit' in West Virginia for the Jamboree which is jointly hosted by Canada, the USA and Mexico. Once stateside, the biggest ever Australian contingent at a World Scout Jamboree will join up with around 47,000 other Scouts from 170 different countries around the world. The Jamboree, running from July 22 - August 2, is an entirely youth-led, adult-supported event and runs every four years. Scouts are presented with a range of ageappropriate challenges and are required to work together with their global companions to solve them, developing skills in leadership and teamwork. Holding fast to the age-old traditions of conservation and outdoorsmanship, the Jam-
boree will embrace the growing trend of leadership development and global citizenship that the Scout movement has cultivated. This year's theme, 'Unlock a New World', invites participants to unlock new adventures, new cultures, and new friendships. Mitchell Radley, from Narre Warren South Scout Group, is one of those making the trek to West Virginia. He's been Scouting since the age of six, both following in the footsteps of his two older brothers and setting an example for his two younger sisters who are progressing through Scouts too. Mitchell's mother Tracy said the trip was the fulfilment of a dream for the young scouts. "We have fundraised for a year to subsidise the almost $11,000 it cost each to go and as parents we are very proud of them. "I'm hoping they come back with a new appreciation for the world, their families and the opportunities they're given, and just seize the day, live and enjoy it."
Frustrated drivers could be waiting up to eight weeks for a patch on potholes that have opened up on the corner of Rix Road and Officer South Road, Officer. The potholes have opened up just past the roundabout at the busy intersection, which caters to dozens of trucks and buses throughout the day. Star News has observed motorists swerving onto the opposite side of the road in an effort to avoid the hazards. Residents have expressed their concern and disappointment, with several noting that patch jobs weren't cutting it. Keith Robb said he had already sent a report to the council about the issue. "Worst patch job I've ever seen," he said. Meanwhile, Lee Nuttall said the potholes were "so harsh they set the accident warning on my dashcam off the other day." Cardinia Shire Council's general manager infrastructure and environment, Peter Benazic, said council was aware of the "road surface defects", with a new patch on the area due in the coming months. "Rix Road is a sealed road and any defects that arise, such as potholes, are repaired as quickly as possible and in accordance with Council's Road Management Plan," he said. "A more significant patch to address the concerns at the corner at Rix Road and Officer South Road is planned for completion in the next six to eight weeks." The intersection is also set for an upgrade, projected to be completed by 2012, to install signals."Through negotiation, the timing of these works will align to the delivery of the adjacent development and the completion of the Princes Freeway city-bound ramps," Mr Benazic said. Meanwhile, Rix Road is not the only road in dire need of repairs, with residents of Kenilworth Avenue in Beaconsfield continuing to ask questions about when their road will be fixed.
Motorists have been observed swerving to the other side of the narrow road to miss the hazards.
Residents will have to wait up to eight weeks for a patch on Rix Road. "Council understands our community's frustrations and remains committed to continuing advocating on its behalf until construction commences on Kenilworth Avenue," Mr Benazic said. "As such, council is continuing to advocate and facilitate a prompt outcome between the developer and the contractor to enable works to re-commence on site as soon as possible." Star News Group has reached out to the developer, Banriar Investments, on numerous occasions, however their phones are unable to be reached. In the meantime, council claim they're "working hard" on the delivery for Stage 2 works to seal the section of Kenilworth Avenue from the Princes Highway overpass to Coach House Lane. "These works have recently been tendered to enable works to commence and continue in unison with the Stage 1 works later this year," Mr Benazic said.

No roof to call their own By Brendan Rees Jason has been camping at the Salvation Army in Cranbourne for nearly two weeks. He says with a lack of crisis centres in Casey he's had nowhere else to go. "I'm on the housing commission waiting list but I've been on that for nine years now ... and I'm still waiting," Jason said, who asked not to publish his surname. He refuses to stay at boarding houses because the conditions, he says, were often "rough" and "getting more expensive." "If you feel uncomfortable you have go back out on the streets." At last week's Casey Council meeting on 16 July, mayor Amanda Stapledon successfully moved a motion to consider a pop-up shelter model currently being trialled in Brisbane for people experiencing homelessness. The model called 'Beddown' aims to utilise spaces often left empty at night, where people are provided a bed in a safe and secure environment. Charitable organisations would also help with laundry, showers, food, and clothing as well as a visit from a doctor and dentist, she said. The council has its eye on transforming car parks, church buildings, community halls and other sites in Casey into pop-up shelters. "This model is a very, very sound one and one I think can bring the whole community together and take stress off other agencies that are trying to do so much," she said. "It's just about the will of people to want to participate and offer up their services, their facilities when they're not in use overnight." Cranbourne Information and Support Service executive officer Leanne Petridis said although she favoured longer term housing solutions she recognised the need to "address the reality of people sleeping rough right now."
Jason has been sleeping in his tent at the Salvation Army in Cranbourne. 195907 "I do believe that providing people with a safe, secure shelter out of the elements at night along with other supports such as food and mattresses will keep them safer, warmer and drier, and possibly help link them into other services," she said. Kelly Jose of the Salvation Army in Cranbourne said many people experiencing homelessness were forced to camp at the centre's carpark in New Holland Drive. "Without a doubt something needs to be done with housing ... every second person I
think that comes in here, have had issues with some housing in some form or another," she said. According to the Council to Homeless Persons CEO Jenny Smith "too often" there wasn't a safe option for homeless women who were "vulnerable to the risks of sleeping rough, or of staying in unsafe housing options like rooming houses, where they are vulnerable to physical and sexual assault. WAYYS CEO Elizabeth Thomas, said during 2018-19 they supported 4,950 cases of people

"We know that the key to ending the housing and homelessness crisis is to increase access to affordable, safe and secure housing with one-to-one wrap around support services," she said.

When asked by your Star News reporter recently why Casey Council approved a planning application for a mosque near the Green Wedge Zone on Belgrave-Hallam Road, Narre Warren, mayor Amanda Stapledon replied it would blend in with the environment and the community, (Berwick Star News, "Mosque Lock Out" 18 July). The fact is that Casey Council and the mayor don't really have a clue or care about the quality of life for existing Casey residents. A mosque and a school will be magnets for further residential growth and development through a corridor which has been showing signs of severe stress and over-development for many years - with serious rubbish and waste problems, congestion and poor public transport connections. Unbalanced growth imposes economic and environmental costs on the City of Casey. Opposing a mosque and school in Casey is about planning for a sustainable population in future and respecting the rights of existing residents. Something that is seemingly unknown to Cr Amanda Stapledon and Cr Wayne Smith? The present infrastructure in Casey cannot keep up with the pressures of more and more growth. Our Green Wedge Zones will only be compromised by more population pressure, pollution and carbon emissions. Moreover, by refusing to allow debate on this important public matter, Casey Council has once again revealed itself to be an undemocratic council with an authoritarian leadership model. The only answer now is for ratepayers and residents to organise to replace the existing council at the 2020 local government elections.

SOCIALLY SPEAKING On Friday 19 July, Berwick Star News posted an article about the opponents of the proposed mosque in Narre Warren North, who are looking to take the proposal to the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal after Casey councillors approved plans in a closed door meeting. Here is how our readers reacted online: Peter James: If they have met all requirements they should have the right to build. Nacera Kefil Burekovic: Racists. Gary White: How about fixing roads around Casey before building mosques. Michael Parr: Something about this stinks, well over 700 individual protests and council still approves? Something isn't right. I hope the residents continue to fight this, if needed they should start a go fund me. Annie Lamb: Would they care as much if it were a Catholic church? Lorraine Sharp: You're resisting the wrong issue here, if you don't want mosques protest the immigration issue, otherwise anyone who is lawfully in Australia has the liberty and indeed the right to develop their land in accordance with law. berwicknews.starcommunity.com.au

Men’s Shed lends a hand By Brendan Rees A group of nifty handymen in Berwick have lent a helping hand in the aftermath of the Bunyip fire devastation. Four volunteers from the Akoonah Park Men’s Shed dedicated two weeks of their time building 40 bird boxes - after receiving a call for help from the Tonimbuk fire recovery centre. The bird boxes will become a new home for wild parrots after the March blaze burnt more than 14,000 hectares. The shed’s manager Maurice Hall said he didn’t hesitate to take on the job. “We do a lot of community work - when it comes in we do it,” he said. “I just said yes straight away, I didn’t even hesitate.” Vermont Men’s Shed also donated about
320 sheets of plywood used for the project. “Where we joined them we just rubbed some black paint on them over the joins so they don’t rot,” Mr Hall said. “We’ve got wire inside there so baby parrots will be able to claw their way out.” He added: “The wood’s plain inside just in case birds peck at them.” Rex Norton, who lost his home to the fires, said all volunteers were appreciated but more help was needed. “We need volunteers for anything desperately, to help people in their gardens, to just to be there to talk to, anything,” he said. “We need donations of plants for people to re-do their gardens ... anything like that is appreciated.” Akoonah Park Men’s Shed members from left, Jimmy Cooper, Sam Sgarioto, Philip Lardner, Derek Brown, and Maurice Hall with the bird boxes. 195914 Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS

At the bail hearing, Corn, facing 19 charges, represented himself from the dock. "I didn't have anywhere to live for a while there," he told the court. "I was very much into the drugs then, Your Honour. "When you're like that you don't take consideration of what's right and what's wrong in your life." For the past 12 months, he'd lived at a static address, he said. "I want to try to do anything you want to
give to me (in terms of bail conditions)," Corn told magistrate Lara Hartnett. Ms Hartnett said that the conditions weren't the issue. Rather, it was whether Corn would show up for court. She noted his priors for driving unlicensed dated back to 1989, including a jail stint in 1998. "And you get found driving a vehicle - that's the difficulty." Corn was unable to meet the 'exceptional circumstances' test for bail. He was also an unacceptable risk of not appearing in court and committing further offences on bail, Ms Hartnett found. Corn was remanded to appear at Dandenong Magistrates' Court on 6 August.

An alleged bail-runner who had driven unlicensed for the past 30 years has been refused bail. Nolan Corn was intercepted by police after allegedly speeding at 104 km/h in an 80 km/h zone on South Gippsland Highway, Clyde about 2.30am on Tuesday 24 July, a court heard that day. Police told the court that the unlicensed driver with a "substantial criminal history" had four warrants for his arrest for failing to appear on bail since 2015. A police remand liaison officer said Corn admitted to never having had a driving licence, but gave no reasons as to why he offended and failed to attend court.
"He continually goes into hiding when he is charged with police matters," the officer told the Dandenong Magistrates' Court bail hearing. "It's my opinion that he will continue to commit offences on bail and he just won't turn up." One of Corn's outstanding court matters included charges of speeding by more than 45 km/h, dangerous driving, unlicensed driving, drink and drug driving, trafficking and possessing 'ice' and possessing ecstacy in 2015. In the same year, he was charged with receiving stolen goods, unlicensed driving, driving an unregistered vehicle and using a fraudulent registration label. In October 2017, he was charged with failing to stop for police and unlicensed driving,

BERWICK CHURCH OF CHRIST - 150 YEARS A series of celebrations for Berwick Church of Christ’s 150 years included a special unveiling of the plaque on Saturday that commemorated the construction of its original church in 1886, which then moved to its new location in 1991 and where its journey continues. They also launched the Berwick Art Trail as a part of the Community Arts Festival which showcased some stunning artwork. 150 Years of this amazing church; a real blessing to their parishioners, those most in need who benefit from their programs and supports and those doing so much for their community. RAY BESSERDIN’S PAPER LANDSCAPES The Royal Botanic Gardens in Melbourne and Cranbourne inspired a series of astounding three-dimensional sculptured paper artworks, ‘Paper Landscapes’, by internationallyacclaimed paper sculptor, Ray Besserdin who uses many paper types to sculpt his stunning impressions. So impressive are the works that one - The Path to Gondwana - was awarded the Gold Medal for Creativity in late 2018 by the 40 very tough judges from the Mondial Art Academia in France. Ray’s ‘Paper Landscapes’ is being exhibited at the Cranbourne Botanic Gardens, from July 20 to 4 August. The works are Ray’s impression of wandering through each of the gardens, enjoying the flora and fauna of their unique landscaped areas. The Cranbourne Gardens are located at 1000 Ballarto Rd, Cranbourne (off South Gippsland Hwy). CISS CHRISTMAS IN JULY SOCIAL DANCE A “fun-filled” fundraiser was held on Friday night; that was organised by Cranbourne Information and Support Centre manager, Leanne Petredes and president Simon Walliker, expertly MC’d by Andy Reid under the guidance of “Dancing Di”, a Dancing Instructor at the Balla Balla Centre. We were entertained by a group of dancers who had prepared for the night and danced beautifully; and then everyone joined in. Di is passionate about teaching people to dance and about raising funds for worthy causes such as CISS who do so much for those in need in our community. What a great night! If you would like to learn to dance, please Contact Di on 0408343202 or email: difen69@ bigpond.net.au.

Cranbourne Information and Support staff, volunteers and supporters in fully swing at the Balla Balla Centre. The City of Casey was thrilled to partner with Uniting who are doing great work in this space to provide supports that Carers truly need and deserve.

Ella shines By Danielle Kutchel
Ella shone at the Royal International Miss Pageant in Orlando. "As a child herself with a disability, it's given her a platform to feel confident and be herself and advocate for others with similar conditions. She spoke to a lot of new friends overseas about the challenges she's had and what pageantry has done for her." Ella began competing in pageants last year when she took part in Misses Australia, with no coaching and no expectations of winning, her mother explains. Now passionate about working the pageant circuit, Ella hopes to compete in Royal International Miss again next year and is already brainstorming ways to tweak her modelling, speeches and routines. She has also set her sights on acting and modelling in future. "Now, when she's on stage she doesn't want to leave!" Ms Hateley laughs. "We are so incredibly proud of her." 12413372-CG11-19
Berwick has its own pageant royalty in nineyear-old Ella Haylock, back on home soil after representing Australia in the Royal International Miss Pageant in Orlando. Ella competed against around 350 girls from 14 different countries as the 2019 Royal International Miss Australia Pacific Sweetheart, and returned with multiple wins including the Royal International Miss (RIM) Appearance Award, 2019 RIM Regal Excellence, 2019 RIM Casual wear 4th Runner Up, 2019 Royal International Top 15 Finalist, 2019 RIM International Finalist, 2019 RIM Royal Top Model 2nd Runner up and 2019 RIM Purple Passion 1st Runner up. Ella's mum Chantelle Hateley says her daughter has matured as a person over the course of the pageant, developing skills in areas like public speaking and interviewing. "She made so many friends globally and was so confident, she couldn't stop smiling. She's a completely different child." While most people have pre-conceived notions of pageantry, influenced by the likes of Miss Congeniality and Toddlers and Tiaras, Ella turns them on their head. She advocates for her favourite charities, Cranbourne-based Backpacks 4 Vic Kids and the Royal Children's Hospital, and collects donations of clothes, toys and stationery for sick kids. The Royal Children's Hospital is particularly close to Ella's heart as she was born with a rare bone disease, Schmidt metaphysical dysplasia, and has spent many hours in the wards with her mum. The condition means Ella is only 99 centimetres tall at the age of nine and her bones can also become fragile. It had impacted her confidence and resilience. Ms Hateley says pageants offer Ella an opportunity to shine despite her condition be herself on stage.

Dale heads business body By Brendan Rees It was a night of good food and networking as members of the Narre Warren Business Group (NWBG) celebrated during their annual dinner on 3 July. Held at Butlers Kitchen in Narre Warren, outgoing president Steve Osborne handed over the reins to Dale Munckton, who steps into the role with a mind full of ideas. "Over the next 12 months we will be working hard to further increase our membership base while running events to allow our members and guests to create real connections with each other," he said. "The committee and I look forward to continuing to grow our relationships with other local business groups and the City of Casey Council. "As business owners many of us are in a position where we can help those less fortunate than us. I talked about the NWBG striving to increase support for local not for profit groups over the next 12 months," Mr Munckton said. Mr Osborne steps down after four years in
the role. He thanked the support of the committee and members, and spoke of the growth of the group and the success of their monthly networking events. International thought leader and author of four books, Ron Malhotra, was guest speaker at the dinner who presented on 'How to leverage the power of LinkedIn to magnify your Influence, Impact and Profit'. Rob Wilson was presented with life membership. His most notable achievement was in 1996, where he volunteered to run the Webb Street Traders Group annual market day. He also assisted with having the group incorporated to become the Narre Warren Chamber of Commerce which later evolved into the NWBG. "As chair of the group Rob was involved in running monthly business breakfasts, the creation of the Brownlow Medal Walk of Fame in Webb Street and working with Council for upgrades to the Webb Street precinct," Mr Munckton said. The group was also delighted to make a $500

Group on Wednesday 7 August. An end of year charity fundraiser dinner is planned for November.
Shot in the arm for mental health Mental health services in the Casey-Cardinia region have received a much-needed boost with the opening of a new Mentis Assist office. Mentis Assist has provided services to the south-east for more than 30 years, and has recently opened a Narre Warren office, designed to increase access to support in the area. The new office, at 9/3 Webb Street, Narre Warren, is open by appointment only to individuals and families in Casey and Cardinia. Mentis Assist provides Mental Health Integrated Complex Care (MHICC) services with funding received from the South Eastern Pri-
mary Health Network (SEMPHN). The Mentis Assist team includes mental health nurses, psychologists, social workers and mental health practitioners. MHICC services are part of a bigger Mental Health Stepped Care Model, which provides mental health support for individuals who might not have been able to afford or access similar care previously. The service provides flexibility to 'step up' or 'step down' supports depending on a person's needs at any given time.
Mentis Assist CEO, Terry Palioportas, said the service will help those who have slipped through the cracks due to disadvantage. "There are many who have not been able to access services due to socio-economic factors, who will now be able to receive local, personalised care to help them on their road to recovery and wellbeing," Mr Palioportas said. As a registered NDIS (National Disability Insurance Service) provider, Mentis Assist also offers support coordination services for participants with an approved NDIS plan from its Narre Warren office.
A new Mentis Assist office in Narre Warren will boost mental health services in the area.

$135pp, $1350 table of 10 Berwick’s belter Berwick's intensity from the opening bounce until the final siren simply can't be matched. Their premiership victory against Narre Warren on Saturday - giving the club back-toback flags for just the second time in club history - was intense, finals footy laced with the right amount of class. After a third premiership in four years, the word 'dynasty' is deservingly being bandied around, and for good reason.
The club has a stranglehold over the southeast region - they're relentless, driven by success and are always chasing their next challenge. It's the cornerstone of all successful sporting clubs. While the weather may have been arctic in their 51-point win over Narre Warren, the Wickers put in a magical performance befitting of a champion team in the midst of a golden era. From the superstar Travis Tuck, who came to the club with a high expectation that has
now culminated with a best on ground medal in a grand final, to their champion skipper Madi Andrews, dynamic forward Harry Money, gun midfielder Bryce Rutherford and reliable defenders Jo West and Michael Riseley, the Wickers possess remarkable star power. "We pride ourselves on our relentless approach," Berwick coach Stewart Kemperman said in the aftermath of another premiership win. And as for Kemperman, he couldn't have a dreamt of a start to his senior coaching career

Community ‘over the moon’ with win By Brendan Rees Cranbourne North residents are finally rejoicing in their fight to keep their promised sports field at Tulliallan Estate. It comes after residents were furious with a developer who had reneged on their promise of delivering a sports field - instead opting to apply to subdivide the huge parcel of land into housing. Casey Council and neighbours' have been in near five-year tussle with the developer in trying to resolve the matter. However Casey Council announced on Tuesday 17 July it had now "reached an agreement" to purchase the land for sporting facilities. "The respective lawyers are now getting on with preparing the necessary paperwork," a statement from Council said. "Council officers will now be able to focus on the design and building of the facilities on the 6.8 hectare site." Construction is anticipated to start next financial year in 2020-21. Casey Mayor Amanda Stapledon said the purchase was a "great outcome" for the Tulliallan residents and the Casey community - a result council had "been working hard on to achieve." "While I cannot discuss the terms of settlement due to confidentiality, I would like to assure our community that this is a win-win for all parties involved and that it does not come at the expense of other projects planned across our city," she said. Earlier this year, Casey's acting city plan-

Tulliallan Estate residents are celebrating after petitioning earlier this year to keep their promised sports field. 193835 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS ning manager Keri New indicated the issue was frustrating with negotiations having "broken down" with the developer Konann Pty Ltd in securing the Alisma Boulevard site. In a council document from January, Casey Council stated it was prepared to pay up to $15 million for the site however the developer wanted double. . Rebecca Hyland, who had launched a petition, garnering more than 1,200 signatures to keep their promised sports field, said the community was celebrating. "If it hadn't been the power of the people who knows what could have happened to the 6.8 hectare of land," she said.
"It's so important to our community to have these active green spaces available to them," she said. Tulliallan School Council president Tara Hall said the school community was "over the moon" with the council's purchase. "It just goes to show what community spirit and people power is capable of," she said. She said the extra 140-plus houses would've had "such a massive impact" on the school's enrolment numbers which have ballooned to almost one thousand children in the past three years. "It's certainly going to ease a lot of pressure on our school facilities; it's going to be great."
A rider from the Casey BMX Club will join Olympians in a 120-strong Australian team for the 2019 UCI BMX World Championships in Belgium in July. Leading the way for Casey is Dane Van Laeren, who will race in the 17-24 years men's 20 inch category. The 18-year old of Berwick will use his thirdplace podium finish at the national championships in Shepparton as an added boost of confidence when he travels to Belgium. Australia's national team manager and 2008 Olympian Luke Madill said it was a wonderful achievement for Casey to be sending a rider to BMX's global showpiece. "As a club, Casey are doing a great job of preparing their riders and credit must go to everyone who has contributed to getting these riders over to Belgium in top shape," Madill said. Dane will join Olympians Anthony Dean and Lauren Reynolds, as well as rising superstar Saya Sakakibara and her older brother Kai. At last year's world championships in Baku, Azerbaijan, the Australian team came home with six gold, four silver and four bronze medals.

Road used for ‘racing’ By Brendan Rees An outraged Narre Warren business owner says it's just a matter of time before "someone will get collected" by hoons in an industrial area. The owner - who asked to remain anonymous - said hoons were using Vesper Drive like a "racetrack" with some reaching speeds as high as 150km/h. He said a car lost control a few weeks ago and ploughed into a sign at front of his business which allegedly involved a high-powered Ford Mustang. "We heard the skid and the big bang," he said. "We get burnouts most weekends and you can just hear them hooning around because they're high powered cars. "Every half an hour you'll hear something go past at some enormous speed." He said many families who frequented martial arts and dancing schools nearby were at risk of being "wiped out" by speedsters. Casey Highway Patrol Leading Senior Constable Mel Hardie said Vesper Drive was "one of many industrial areas" used by hoons and were doing their best to tackle the problem. "There's multiple areas across Casey, Greater Dandenong, and Cardinia, and they usually go from one spot to the other," she said.
A hoon recently smashed intp a sign on Vesper Drive, Narre Warren. Police have the power to impound a car for a month if driven by people in a dangerous manner. "If they continue with that behaviour the vehicle will be forfeited to the state and either crushed or donated to the SES for them to practice their jaws-of-life on," Leading Snr Const Hardie said. "A lot of people do have dash cams these days and will notify us - and we might not catch them on the night but we will catch up them." Courts can also impose a fine up to $28,000 and/or imprisonment of up to two years.
Community Centre Launch By Taylah Eastwell A well-established Narre Warren community learning centre has been given a new name, with the former Narre Community Centre being renamed The Foundation Learning Centre as of its official launch on Monday July 22. Having been part of the Casey community since 1981, the centre is committed to continuing what they do best. The launch of the newly named centre was attended by Mayor Amanda Stapleton, Councillor Sam Aziz and Member for Gembrook Brad Battin, as well as students, staff and other members of the education and community sector. Foundation Learning Centre provide accredited training across youth and literacy programs, a pre-kinder program as well as short courses and work skills. The centre also
offers VCAL and English classes, and hosts the Vogue Academy which offers Certificate III in Hairdressing. Spokeswoman for the centre, Donna Dowler, said the growth of Foundational Learning Centre means that they can now provide a progressive approach to community programs, education and training. "Foundation Learning Centre was chosen to represent our commitment to providing the necessary foundation for future growth and learning of all students and clients," Donna said. The community centre also provides neighbourhood house programs such as cake decorating, a craft community group, knitting for charity and a walking group. "It is an exciting and bright future for all involved in the centre," Donna said.
Principals ready for schools Families are a step closer to having access to three new primary schools in Casey with principals appointed to start in term one next year. These new schools - currently under construction - will cater to families living in fastgrowing suburbs. The schools include Botanic Ridge Primary School, Casey Fields (Five Ways) Primary School, and Clyde North East Primary School. Principals were appointed following a thorough Department of Education expression of interest process to select some of Victoria's best and brightest educators to lead the schools.
The new schools opening in 2020 are part of the Labor Government's school building boom that will see 100 new government schools open by 2026. Minister for Education James Merlino said: "We know that Victoria's population is booming, which is why we're building and upgrading schools across the state to meet the needs of our growing communities." "The appointment of the new principals is another major milestone in the delivery of these exciting new schools," he said.

HELP FEED THE NEEDY THIS WINTER PARKLEA’S Winter Food Drive is on again this year, with locations throughout the Cardinia Shire welcoming donations. Now in its fourth year, the annual Food Drive provides residents with the opportunity to donate non-perishable food and personal hygiene products to help those in need. This year, Parklea hopes to reach even more families and individuals, with new businesses volunteering to be drop off locations. During July and August, local residents can drop non-perishable food and personal hygiene products to Arena Café at Arena Shopping Centre, the Timber Mill Café or the Timbertop Land Sales Office in the Timbertop Estate, the Kaduna Park Land Sales Office and Cardinia Life (Aligned Leisure) in Officer. “With the support of local businesses, we hope to provide more families with much-needed food throughout winter,“ said Jarod Mills, Sales and Marketing Manager at Parklea. “As a developer in the South East, Parklea is committed to helping improve the wellbeing and quality of life of those living in and around our communities. “We encourage local residents and businesses to give generously, and thank them for their continued support,” said Mr Mills. The Winter Food Drive is one of Parklea’s community initiatives, including a Christmas gift drive, aimed at supporting local families doing it tough. Parklea also supports a variety of local community groups, events, and charities throughout the South East. All Food Drive donations will be distributed via Windermere, a Narre
Sales manager Jarod MIlls hopes 2019 donations will exceed last year’s tally. Warren-based community service organisation and charity that supports vulnerable local families and individuals with food, shelter, counselling, training and financial assistance. Windermere Fundraising Coordinator Belinda Barker said Windermere was delighted to be working alongside Parklea this year, and hopes local businesses
and residents can give generously to help support disadvantaged members of the community. Items most needed by Windermere are non-perishable foods with reasonable expiry dates, such as tinned fruit and vegetables, tuna cans, legumes, long-life milk, pasta sauce, dry pasta, soup, rice and other grains. Pairing donations and suggesting
uses for them is also welcome, such as donating dry pasta with tinned pasta sauce for spaghetti bolognese. Personal hygiene products would also be valuable donations and are encouraged as well. Local businesses will accept donations for the Winter Food Drive until mid-August. Find out more at parklea.com/ winterfooddrive ●

165.4 ACRES OF PEAT LOAM COUNTRY A strategic landholding at Bayles within ten minutes of the important centres of Pakenham and Kooweerup is listed for private sale by Rodwells Ruralco Property agent Ray Cullen. With a land area of 66.77 hectares, or 165.4 acres held in four titles, the property known as 980 Main Drain Road has about 620 metres frontage to the Bunyip River along Main Drain Road. While the sale price is negotiable based on $2.9 million, the property features the coveted black peat loam soils for which this district is revered, especially by asparagus and more recently strawberry and other crop enterprises. Historically the property was operated as an organic dairy farm but it then changed hands and the property is under a negotiable lease currently with another dairy farmer as a dry herd turnout block. The property is subdivided into 25 paddocks with established tree breaks along the fence lines. Selling agent Ray Cullen says that with its clean pastures and a large water trough in every paddock there is significant grazing potential, while the location is only ten minutes distant from Racing.com Park (or the Pakenham Racecourse) at nearby Tynong. “The current grazing lease could be continued by negotiation if the purchaser requires, while there is also rental of $400 per week from the tenant occupying the original three bedroom brick veneer homestead on the property. “Combined these two leases provide a worthwhile holding income and could be continued while future development or new use plans are formulated”. Mr Cullen said that in addition to the home there was quite a bit of useful infrastructure that related from its earlier dairy farm use. These include two haysheds, a lock-up machinery shed, a set of cattle yards and the now disused original dairy building. The property has a three-phase power supply with irrigation plant plus a current 20 megalitre water license to pump from the Bunyip River. Mr Cullen said that several neighbours were engaged in intensive horticulture including asparagus production on the next door holding. “This type of highly productive land with well drained soils just don’t come along for sale in this highly valued district and here there are significant opportunities for the purchaser to implement a range of farming options”. ●

FOCUS ON … TAX TIME
Top four tax time mistakes to avoid advises the ATO
The friendly family firm Michael Muaremov is opening his Beaconsfield practice to new clients for the first time in nearly a decade. Until now the practice has only taken new clients on referral. Mr Muaremov said the time was right to take on new clients, who will be assigned to his team of four qualified accountants. “We have capped our client numbers for the last 10 years but my team is eager and ready to take on their own client loads,“ he explained. Mr Muaremov opened his eponymous business 20 years ago. He was headed for a life as a lawyer until the arrival of a daughter with wife Merita when he was barley 20 meant he had to eschew study for a paying job as a clerk. He eventually went back to school to study accounting and opened his own practice in 1999 when he was just 26. It turned out to be a fortunate turn of events. “I wouldn’t change a thing if I could have my life over again. I would have made a useless lawyer,“ he said, laughing. “I am about helping people. I wasn’t meant to be an accountant but I do love what I do.“ The firm has been based in its current office on the Old Princes Highway for 17 of its 20 years . Wife Merita has been by Michael’s side as the business has gone from strength to strength, and works in the office part- time Eldest daughter Fabiola has worked in the family business for 10 years and is now the practice manager.
Second daughter Deanna has followed in her father’s footsteps and is an accountant. Third daughter Leonora is doing her VCE and hopes to become a mid-wife. Merita and his girls are complemented by what Michael calls his “practice family“. Business manager Romaine Nichols has been with Michael for 16 years and accountant Anne Bryan has been with him for 15 years. Associate accountants Katrina Villegas and Ali Kasemi have clocked up 10 years and 14 years respectively. Graduate accountant Kavi Kumar is the newest addition to the team. In return for their loyalty, Michael ensures his staff have opportunities to grow professionally. “One of the reasons they stay is because they don’t need to look for opportunities outside. I work to ensure people there are opportunities to grow professionally within the business.“ The firm handles the tax affairs of individuals including the self employed, sole traders, partnerships, companies, trusts and self managed superannuation funds. The team prepare and lodge tax returns and Business Activity Statements and work closely with business clients and investors. Plans are afoot for a 20 year celebration later this year that will include many of the firm’s most valued clients. The celebration will honour two decades in business for a firm which is proud to be known as the “happy accountants“.
area where people commonly make mistakes. To help you work out what you can claim, the ATO has developed 30 occupation guides and accompanying posters for specific occupations (ato.gov.au/occupations). Remember, to claim a deduction for workrelated expenses, follow the three golden rules: you have to have spent the money yourself and not been reimbursed the claim must be directly related to earning your income, and you must have a record to prove it. You can only claim the work-related portion of expenses. You can’t claim a deduction for any part of the expense that relates to personal use. 3. Forgetting to keep receipts The ATO refuses a large percentage of claims where taxpayers are unable to produce records or receipts when asked. Even if the value of a claim is below the record-keeping threshold, we may ask you to show how you calculated your claim. “Do away with the shoebox and try myDeductions in the ATO app instead – it’s the easiest way to store your receipts. The deduction details can even be uploaded into your tax return or sent on to your tax agent,” Ms Foat said. 4. Claiming for something they never paid for “We often see people making claims at the record-keeping limit, thinking that the ATO will never question a claim if we don’t require receipts. But you still need to have spent the money yourself and be able to show us how you’ve worked out your claim. “If you can’t explain it, we won’t accept it, and we may penalise you for failing to take care when lodging your tax return."

The Australian Taxation Office (ATO) has revealed some of the most common mistakes people make at tax time. Assistant Commissioner Karen Foat said that errors range from honest mistakes to people deliberately over-claiming to increase their refund. A small amount of over-claiming by a large number of individuals adds up to billions of dollars, meaning that essential community services are missing out. For example, incorrect work-related expense claims have been highlighted as one of the key drivers of the $8.7 billion tax gap generated by Individuals not in business. Here are the top four mistakes to avoid: 1. Lodging before all your prefill data is available or failing to report all your income “People can lodge now, and if they have all of the information they need to do their returns accurately, that’s ok,” Ms Foat said. “However, we know from previous years that the early birds who lodge in the first weeks of July are far more likely to make mistakes or submit incomplete data. These mistakes may slow down your return, or result in a debt owing to the ATO if we later need to correct the information.” “This tax time will see our sophisticated data-matching systems process an unprecedented amount of information. Our data-matching will help us match what you’ve earned, whether from a traditional 9-5 job, a casual position or sharing economy income. Failing to declare all your income will result in you ending up with a bill when we later match your data." 2. Claiming the wrong thing We know that work-related expenses is one

Arts festival delights young and old at Berwick By Mitchell Clarke The Community Arts Festival, held by the Berwick Church of Christ, drew hundreds of guests to the township of Berwick on Saturday 20 July. Held as part of the churches 150th birthday celebrations, the event is also in conjunction with the City of Casey’s Winter Arts Festival. During the 2019 Arts Trail, nine artists partnered with local businesses, showcasing their work in shopfronts. Gallery Director at Bunjil Place Georgia Cribb said the judges were challenged by the incredible creativity and diversity in the works of art. “The four judges considered how the nine works addressed the theme Berwick - Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow,“ Ms Cribb said. “Some of the artists approached the theme in a more literal graphical style where others offered a more symbolic interpretation.“ In first place, Paul Reid won the $1500 prize, Saskia Rochow took out second prize while Gino and Judy Ciancio were commended for their works. Committee Chair Charmaine Vis said the entire event was a celebration and gift to the community. “It’s huge, it’s colourful and it will surprise, delight and inspire you,“ Ms Vis said. “We have tried to bring you something new and fresh for the local community and those visiting the festival from out of town.“ The Arts Trail will be on display until Monday 29 July.

Outlooks brighten in wash By Cam Lucadou-Wells The Orange Sky Australia mobile laundry service is not just about washing and drying clothes, says volunteer Shaylee De Lange. For its homeless clientele, it's also the chance for positive and genuine connection with dedicated and attentive volunteers. "It's important to let their voices be heard," she said. Ms De Lange is service manager for the Melbourne South East region, which recently celebrated its 5000th load of washing in just three years. She still joins in the shifts, about 10 stops a week in the area including Dandenong, Doveton, Narre Warren, Cranbourne, Pakenham, Chelsea and Frankston. A lot of women escaping domestic violence have been arriving lately. One weekly visitor, who lived in her car, started with nothing but a small pile of clothes. Gradually the amount of clothes have grown, and short-term accommodation has been found.
Orange Sky volunteer Shaylee De Lange on one of the mobile laundry's 10 weekly shifts in the South East. The brightness has returned to the woman's face, Ms De Lange says. The laundry is also an important link to other services, such as housing, free showers and food. Beside her volunteering, Ms De Lange
works with a City of Casey community centre and organises the affordably-priced Doveton Show. She started at Orange Sky while studying a diploma in international development. She came to understand that homelessness
was not just an issue overseas but also in Australia, she says. She also learnt a lot on the job by listening to others. "Joining Orange Sky was one of the best things I've ever done. "I've learnt that it's not just about giving back but allowing people who are struggling to have a voice." Ms De Lange looks at some of the gaps in human services - such as a shortage of affordable housing and mental health services. Many of Orange Sky's clients have long waits for mental health treatment, as well as drug and alcohol services. Without permanent fixed addresses, they also can't claim any welfare benefits. "A lot of people don't listen to what their issues and concerns are. "A lot of programs got up with funding from the government or organisations - but they don't go to the needs and issues that they're facing." To find out more about Orange Sky go to orangesky.org.au
Doveton mosque opposition wanes By Cam Lucadou-Wells A proposed mosque in industrial Doveton has been given the green light for the second time by City of Casey. The Afghan Islamic Centre and Omar Farooq Mosque's re-application at 25-31 Green Street was approved at a council meeting on 16 July, after the original permit lapsed in 2018. Cr Wayne Smith said that the mosque was in an appropriate site and "met all of the requirements". The sequel attracted significantly less objections than the original controversial permit
in 2014, Cr Smith told the meeting. The council received three objections - two from neighbours in the industrial estate. There were no objections from nearby residents. Cr Smith said that none of the residents that objected in 2014 had even contacted him this time round. "Whether or not they thought there was no point (in objecting), who knows?" In its second version, a larger mosque with a larger 216-space onsite car park was proposed on a larger site of four lots. The 2200-square-metre building will stand

Young stars By Tyler Lewis

The Demons fall just short... again By Tyler Lewis After a second loss by less than 10 points in as many weeks, this time to Geelong 5.18 (48) to 5.9 (39), the run home is now even more important for Casey in the VFL. But although the next four matches for the Demons are do or die, coach Sam Radford is backing his charges in to get it done if they can compete for the full 120 minutes. “We aren’t going to be making too many changes at this time of the year - we just need to play our footy for four quarters and be consistent,” he said. After a sluggish and contested start, Mykelti Lefau welcomed Cat Sam Menegola back to footy by running him into the turf on the wing - resulting in Jay Kennedy-Harris’ and the Demons’ first, before Lefau himself tumbled a ball from the stoppage for another major. With the wind in the opening term, the Demons had the Cats on the ropes - keeping Geelong scoreless at the first break and at one
stage having 17 inside 50s to just two. Geelong in the second term, despite keeping the Demons goalless, proved that the opening term dominance wasn’t due to the conditions. An arm-wrestle of a contest began in the third term as the wind died down and Geelong threatened - but the Cats weren’t applying it to the scoreboard as the Casey backline, led by youngster Tom Freeman, was springboarding at any given opportunity. At the final break, Casey had already nailed a mammoth 86 tackles but Radford urged his side that more energy at the contest would get it done. Just moments in, Geelong’s Quinton Narkle - who had three behinds to his name - shrugged a tackle and squeezed the kick through to give the Cats their first lead of the day a minute into the last. After the Cats missed several opportunities, Josh Jordan got it within a kick and Jaxon Briggs
ran around his opponent to snap it all square. After coming home hot, Scott Selwood pounced on a turnover and kicked the last major to put a dagger into the Demons. Casey laid an incredible 117 tackles for the match, with Radford explaining the ferocity around the contest is the way his side likes to play. “All year we have been the number one tackling team,” he said. “We have been putting the pressure on and it’s something our VFL guys have done really well, like Jimmy Munro had 11 tackles, he always leads the way. “We just know we have to put a fair bit of pressure on these talented sides. “I think Geelong had 18 or 19 AFL-listed players and if we aren’t putting pressure on the ball we will get chopped up.” The Demons will take on Sandringham at Trevor Barker Oval on Sunday, in what looms as a crunch clash.
Losing streak continues for the Cavaliers By Tyler Lewis The Casey Cavaliers' Championship Men's team has suffered its fourth Big V basketball loss in a row, going down 103-112 to the topplaced McKinnon Cougars on the on Saturday before also dropping its contest to Keilor (8779) the following day. Brent Hobba (25 points and 10 defensive rebounds) recorded a double-double on Saturday while Raheem Lemons was impressive from limited minutes with 11 points from his 14 minutes on the floor. For the Cougars, duo Eric Williams and Dillon Stith were monumental in the victory, putting up 27 points apiece. The Cavaliers will look to snap their streak this week when they take on Blackburn. Despite sitting second last, the Vikings have won
their last two matches and will go into the clash in form. The Cavaliers' Championship Women's winning streak, meanwhile, has ended at two as they went down to the Cougars 67-72. The Cavs were consistent all over the floor, having five players score more than 10 points, but the in-form Cougars were in the end too much to handle. Toccara Ross recorded another doubledouble with 15 points and 10 rebounds but shot 38 per cent from the field. At the other end of the court, Cougars Danielle Raber shot a remarkable 10 from 15 from the field and brought down 13 rebounds. The Cavs will be tested again this weekend when they travel to Keilor who currently sit third on the ladder and have won four of their past five matches.
The Casey Cavaliers' Youth Men's side flexed its muscles in its elimination final against Bendigo, coming away 90-68 victors. Corey Roos was impressive for the Cavs with 16 points, but it was the team dominance at the offensive end that ultimately won Casey a spot in the next stage of the finals - 44 of the 53 rebounds at the Cavs' defensive end were brought down by Casey. And the Youth Women's side continued its mesmeric season by smashing fourth placed Camberwell 84-49. Casey is now 17-2 and has won its past 14 matches. Lauren Tuplin yet again led the way for the Cavs as she put up 21 points while Tess Young was also influential with nine points and eight rebounds.

The Demons fell short despite laying 117 tackles on Saturday.
“We were really hard on Hayden, as a coaching group, but in reflection he actually had a really good day in the end and in the last quarter he nearly got us over the line.” Dandenong Stingrays coach Nick Cox tested the resilience of top five prospect Hayden Young, but after a telling performance against Sandringham on Sunday, Young can add another string to his extensive draft bow come November. After being followed closely by a number of opponents, Young picked his side up off the canvas and 45 seconds of brilliance almost won them the game. After a slow start, Dandenong needed a steadier, and Ashton Williamson darted down his opponent and put through his first, giving his side the momentum into the first break. The second term saw several changes in momentum, and the Stingrays clawed back into the contest through the obvious yet unstoppable set play of Bailey Schmidt to Young on his left from the middle. Livewire Ned Cahill influenced the contest by launching a goal from beyond the paint of 50 then setting up Williamson for his second to get his side well within the game. The Stingrays were slow out of the blocks after the main break, with Fischer McAsey kicking two in the term as his side jumped out to a four goal lead at the final interval. After pressing for the best part of 18 minutes without the reward, Hayden Young grabbed the game by the scruff of the neck and willed his side back into the contest through what was a remarkable passage of play. Winning the ball at a half-back stoppage, Young looked to the corridor with the hands and then got on his bike to get it back, and closing in on 55 metres he launched a goal that dropped the jaws of everyone looking on. Only seconds later at the very next centre bounce, Young emerged again to link up with Cahill and slam home another - this time on his right foot. When Williamson snuck through his third and with four minutes on the clock, there were two goals in it. After three goals in as many minutes, there was some instant life in the Dandenong side. The Dragons ultimately held on as the ball fittingly ended in the hands of Riley Bowman, the Stingrays’ inaugural premiership ruckman. Despite losing another game - 10.9 (69) to 9.8 (62) - in a disappointing month of football as a collective, Cox was impressed with some of the improvement as individuals. Sam De Koning has made a name for himself over the past year as a key defender, but Cox is trying his best to display his versatility. “We always like to win but the other thing is we play players in positions that enhances their draft prospects,” he said. “Sam has obviously been touted as one of the better defenders in the country but I think he has really shown over the past few weeks how versatile he can be.” Bailey Schmidt also returned from a stint in the VFL playing for Frankston, a move that Cox believes has improved him as a player. “I was really happy with Bailey, he took multiple marks, won lots of hitouts and I thought controlled the clearances,” he said. “He has come back better than what we sent him off so that is a credit to the system at Frankston and also a credit to Bailey for training better.” The Stingrays take on close rival, the Gippsland Power, in a mouth-watering showdown at Shepley Oval on Saturday morning.

Standing together as one By Russell Bennett "When all seems lost, it's about understanding that there is light at the end of the tunnel - even if you can't necessarily see it right now." That is one of the clear messages to take on-board from Hampton Park Junior Football Club's third ever running of its 'Legends Game', which welcomes a host of the club's favourite sons back to the fold. This year, on 4 August, the beloved community event - run in conjunction with Matt Runnalls' Mindfull Aus - has a real emphasis on cultural diversity, in addition to its usual mental health focus. The last 'Legends Game', in 2017, came almost exactly six months after the sudden passing of former Hampton Park junior Shaun Ross - who had ongoing mental health struggles. He had a heart of gold, but lived a troubled life from a young age. Yet through the darkness of his passing, there is a light that constantly shines in his honour - to help, along with the likes of Mindfull and the Hampton Park JFC, people in their own mental health struggles. Mindfull Australia is a suicide prevention charity founded by Runnalls - Shaun's great friend, and former club-mate at the Cora Lynn Football Netball Club. Mindfull's purpose is to encourage those affected by mental health battles to come out of the shadows of stigma through self-acceptance, and education of the wider community. At the time he founded Mindfull, Runnalls was a 24-year-old tradie who played country footy. He had no real financial worries, his professional life was in order, and he had a strong network of family and friends. But since the age of 17 he's battled severe anxiety and depression, which led to several suicide attempts. This year, Hampton Park's 'Legends Game' will expand its focus to those in the local In-
Chris Adair, Matt Runnalls, and Leigh Gittens are standing together as one behind the Hampton Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT Park Junior Football Club's 'Legends Game' this year. 195945 digenous community facing their own mental health battles. The Hampton Park Junior Football Club is home to a large number of members from the Indigenous community, and the jumpers to be worn in the upcoming clash in August have been specially-designed by one such member - Leigh Gittens. "I've been involved with the club for the past nine years and Chris (club president Chris Adair) has asked me for the past couple of years to design a guernsey, and we've finally got one," Gittens said. "We've got a very multicultural club here one that's very friendly and family-oriented. No one is left out." Runnalls expanded even further. "I've only been involved with the club for three or so years through Chris, but just the way the whole club, not only Chris, has opened its doors to me and the concept of these con-
versations with the community is really comforting to see," he said. "To change the concept of the 'Legends Game' this year just slightly to involve a different demographic and background is a really beautiful thing. "It's something that I want to get behind, and it's something we'd like to do more work with at Mindfull - involving a diverse range of communities - and Hampton Park is a fantastic representation of that. "We have more of a youth focus on this event this year in the rooms afterwards and we want to really get a lot of the juniors to come in and hear these messages. "To be able to represent a different culture, but one that's paramount here in the area, is something that'll open up the doors for a lot of people to seek comfort and I think it's a beautiful thing that this club is doing.
"It's an awesome initiative, and I can't wait to see everyone in these jumpers. "We've seen the rates of indigenous youth suicide, and it's about getting the kids back to culture, remembering their heritage, and connecting back to their roots. "That's why this club does such a fantastic job. This is a fantastic initiative and one that Mindfull Aus is rapt to be supportive of, and be a part of." Adair spoke about the Redbacks providing a constant source of support to all their members - regardless of background or culture. "We've always been big on looking after our indigenous families, and we're really proud of their contribution to our club," he said. "Mindfull has also been a big part of our club for the past three years so, between that and our past players, it should be a cracking day. They're three things that are really important to our club." Adair also spoke about the significance of the jumper designs for the upcoming clash. "The small circles represent the players, and the largest circle and the second largest circle are the captain and the vice-captain, so that's the leadership and these are all the directions people have come from to be here," he said, pointing to the front of the jumper. "On the back is Bunjil, the creator." The Hampton Park Junior Football Club 'Legends Game' will be held on 4 August at the Cairns Road Recreation Reserve from 2.30pm, with a dinner and presentation from Mindfull to follow. Tickets for the dinner and presentation are $40 for adults, and $10 for kids. For more information, contact Mel Adair on 0412 564 547, or email admin@mindfullaus.org.

These WGCA girls can play The Bendigo Community Bank of Lang Lang is backing the West Gippsland Cricket Association (WGCA) All Stars Girls cricket competition, and together they're calling on clubs right across the region to get involved. All West Gippsland clubs have been urged to embrace the development and encourage their female supporters to don the gear to play cricket. The competition is approaching its third season and girls cricket organisers are hoping many more clubs are able to field a team. Last season six teams enjoyed the thrill of whacking a six or rattling the stumps. There were often many cheers of delight as the girls hit the mark. "The WGCA has been fortunate to capture the support of the Lang Lang Community Bendigo Bank as its chief sponsor," said WGCA president Bob Taylor. "We will be able to expand numbers and support volunteers in their efforts to assist the girls to thrive on the social connection that arises out of cricket.
"The benefits of this latest recreation development are many. "So far we have seen Upper Beaconsfield, Beaconsfield, Kooweerup, Officer, Nyora and Carlisle Park revelling in the atmosphere of girls cricket on a Monday night. However there are 19 clubs in the WGCA so its time our remaining clubs accepted the challenge and joined the blossoming trend of providing another outlet for female sport. "We are prepared to assist any club that accepts this test. The WGCA has applied for, and has been successful in receiving, grants for growing girls cricket. With the help of Cricket Victoria we have purchased equipment and paid for assistance for volunteers so that it is easier to field the teams." The girls season will commence again in November after a season launch and some skills sessions aimed at helping girls become accustomed to honing the traditional skills of batting and bowling in cricket. Anyone interested in joining up can contact their local club, or call WGCA girls cricket coordinator Shona Lynch on 0499 558 355.

The Eagles do it for Corrie By Tyler Lewis MORNINGTON PENINSULA NEPEAN DIVISION 2 - ROUND 15 Devon Meadows recorded its second win in as many weeks when it dismantled last-placed Crib Point on the weekend, 15.13 (103) to 9.6 (60). Joel Hillis followed up his seven-goal haul with another four majors while Troy Aust continued his form over the past month with another three goals. Crib Point's 18-year-old spearhead Tom Panich kicked three of his side's nine majors for the afternoon, while another youngster in Nick Rutherford was named the Magpies' best. Red Hill bounced back from its loss to Karingal last week, demolishing a Pearcedale side that went scoreless in the second half. The Hillmen ran riot against the Dales, recording their fifth victory over a three-figure margin this season in the 17.23 (125) to 1.1 (7) annihilation. Trent Robertson was named best for the Dales while speedster Danny Allsop was best afield for the Hillmen. GIPPSLAND LEAGUE ROUND 13 Bairnsdale kept in touch with the final five with a win over Drouin 15.15 (105) to 10.17 (77). Drouin, which currently sits in fifth place, has lost its last two against sides that sit in a lower ladder position. The Redlegs had 11 goal-kickers on the day, with Shaun Wyatt leading the charge with a five-goal, best afield performance. Tom Barr, with two-goals, was influential while Todd Beck was named best for the Hawks. Meanwhile the ladder-leading Maffra did enough against Morwell to remain a win clear on top with its 7.12 (54) to 3.9 (27) win. Seventh-placed Traralgon upset Sale
Milestone man Corrie Wilson celebrates his goal on the weekend. 195688 through incredible goal-kicking, getting up 12.1 (73) to 9.14 (68). Moe cruised to a 13.13 (91) to 6.10 (46) victory over Wonthaggi. Leading at every change, the Lions did enough to get away with the four points over the Power. SOUTHERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE DIVISION 2 - ROUND 13 Corrie Wilson has long been a champion of local footy, particularly for his beloved Doveton Eagles, and it was only fitting that his side could flex its muscles and bank a huge Southern Football League Division 2 win in his milestone game. The Eagles brushed aside third-placed Keysborough at home on Saturday to break a game clear in second in Wilson's 250th senior appearance for the club and his 350th game of footy overall, 20.14 (134) to 9.12 (66). Wilson's footballing resume is long and expansive. It includes multiple premierships and league best and fairests, as well as almost a dozen club champion awards. And in a game with so much on the line, he used all of his class to help bring down the ever-dangerous Burras.
Picture: ROB CAREW
The Eagles held just a one-point advantage at the first break, but with all of their forward depth and overwhelming midfield dominance, surged ahead to a 34-point lead at the major break. The visitors enjoyed a better third term on the scoreboard, but still leaked nine goals as the Eagles' forwards put on a show, kicking away to a major percentage boosting victory. Apart from Wilson - who had the ball on a string as he has been known for - Cameron Carmody, Nick Beer and Michael Callinan all had a major impact on the contest, while Adam Read had an impressive day down forward with four majors. For the Burras, who will look to quickly move on from the disappointing result, Matt Carnelley provided a target to boot three, while Dion Elefantis battled hard. The ladder-leading Springvale Districts, meanwhile, also banked a crucial win, holding off a fast-finishing Hampton side away from home, 9.9 (63) to 8.10 (58). The Dees led by 20 at the final change, but the Hammers roared home with three of the
four final term goals to just fall short. DIVISION 3 - ROUND 13 Hampton Park was a class above Ashwood, 15.14 (104) to 4.10 (34), while Endeavour Hills banked an away win against Black Rock 13.14 (92) to 2.4 (16). And in Division 4, Hallam won a thriller against the Frankston Dolphins, 7.8 (50) to 7.5 (47), while Lyndale went down to Carrum Patterson Lakes, 13.21 (99) to 5.12 (42). EASTERN FOOTBALL LEAGUE PREMIER DIVISION - ROUND 13 Noble Park went down to the powerful Vermont at home, 18.18 (126) to 9.6 (60), with Kyle Martin (four goals) playing almost a lone hand for the Bulls in another brilliant display from the former Collingwood midfielder, while a disappointing Rowville fell to Norwood at home, 13.13 (91) to 3.10 (28). Ex-Western Bulldog Mitch Honeychurch was impressive for Vermont with two majors, while Brett Eddy brought up his 50th goal for the year and made the leading goalkicker race all the more interesting in the run home, now equal with Norwood's Leigh Williams. Anthony Brolic was the best for the Hawks on a tough day. After 14 rounds, Rowville is well-placed for finals, sitting in fourth spot, while Noble Park needs to get a move on, sitting in seventh. VFLW ROUND 11 Casey has snapped its six-game losing streak with an impressive 13.7 (85) to 3.2 (20) win over the Northern Territory in Alice Springs. The Demons lead at every change and kept the Thunder scoreless in the final term to run away big winners. Casey will have to cause an upset against the second-placed Southern Saints next week if it is to shake the top six in the second double-header at Trevor Barker Oval.
