Attack of speed An 87-year-old military-tank enthusiast in a Ford GT sports car has blazed through a Princes Highway amber light at 125 km/h, a court has heard. John Belfield, the owner of Melbourne Tank Museum in Narre Warren North, was once dubbed as 'Australia's oldest hoon' a decade ago. On this occasion, a speed camera at the South Gippsland Highway intersection snapped the east-bound car at 45 km/h over the speed limit just after 10am on a Sunday last September.
His lawyer told the Dandenong Magistrates' Court on 27 August that Belfield was not "hooning". On Belfield's way home from a Dandenong trash-and-treasure market, he had just given the car a "squirt" as the lights turned amber, the lawyer said. He'd been surprised by the power of what was his first-ever brand-new car, bought after his wife had died a year earlier, the lawyer said. "He put his foot down, gave it a squirt and that particular car and engine goes from 80 to 120 (km/h) in 2.2 seconds," the lawyer said.
"Within five seconds he's exceeded the speed limit by 45 km/h." Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said that two seconds would have been "ample time" to stop the car at the lights. "Rather than stopping, he gave it a squirt." Mr Vandersteen rated Belfield's risk of returning to court as low, though noting "I'm surprised by the type of car that you're driving in the circumstances". He took into account Belfield's "significant costs" to subpoena traffic-camera photos to support his case.
FACTORY DIRECT BLINDS FOR LESS
Belfield was convicted and fined $750, on top of a 12-month driving disqualification. According to his lawyer, Belfield - isolated from public transport or even footpaths - had bought himself a mobility scooter for his disqualification period. Belfield had not been charged since 2009 when his Nissan Pulsar was detected at 170 km/h in Warragul. The car was impounded on that occasion. Belfield was regarded as Australia's oldest hoon and branded by then-Premier John Brumby as an "idiot".

IN BRIEF
Council goes green By Cam Lucadou-Wells City of Greater Dandenong plans to use 100 per cent renewable energy by the 2020-21 financial year. The goal will be met when the council's two Power Purchase Agreements (PPAs) come into place, corporate services director Mick Jaensch told a council meeting on 12 August. The first PPA conducted by Procurement Australia covers the council's public lighting about 48.6 per cent of the council's electricity needs. The other will cover the remaining energy used at the council's sites. It is conducted by the Municipal Association of Victoria and the council coalition Eastern Alliance for Greenhouse Action, Both PPA's renewable energy sources were unknown at this stage, Mr Jaensch said. They are expected to start in 2020-21.
"Once both PPAs are operational, one hundred percent of Council electricity will come from renewable energy," Mr Jaensch said. "With both PPAs, we do not know what the impact will have on our carbon emissions at this point. This will only be known at the conclusion of the tender process." Cr Matthew Kirwan said the bulk power agreements with the purchasing power of several councils would help encourage renewable energy. "PPAs have the broader market impact to encourage renewables to be built to meet the demand you are creating by signing up. So that will actually help with supply issues." Cr Kirwan said the council was installing energy efficient LED street lights and largescale solar panel installations at both our Dandenong Civic Centre and the under-construction Springvale Community Hub.
"Council generating our own energy provides energy security. "Purchasing renewable energy is vital too, to save residents money as renewable energy rapidly becomes cheaper than coal-based power. "It will reduce emissions and move us as fast as possible to a zero net emissions Council to tackle climate change." The fossil fuel industry, through its vested interests, were manipulating doubts over power supply with "baseless attacks" on renewable energy, Cr Kirwan said. "While there are concerns about threats to our power supply on individual very hot days this summer, this is a failure by the Federal Government to come up with a viable National Energy Policy to create a national approach to drive energy efficiency and renewable energy generation."
Life breathed into livestock market By Cam Lucadou-Wells A pillar of Dandenong's rich history as the Gateway to Gippsland could so easily have been lost. The livestock market on Cheltenham Road was a weekly tradition for decades, drawing farmers from across the South East until it closed just before Christmas in 1998. A committed group from the Show committee didn't allow the market to dissolve in time. For posterity, they have preserved its auction sale ring, signs and relics under the roof of Jack Rae OAM Pavilion at Dandenong Showgrounds. The sales ring is still used to train budding livestock auctioneers Lining the walls are more than 110 perpetual signs with the names of the region's great farming families, as well as the market's milking plant, milk cans, butter churns and holding yards. Graeme Marriott was one of the original group who saved the old stalls, ultimately donated by Greater Dandenong Council. "It was all going to be destroyed, no one wanted it so we stepped in," Mr Marriott says. "Seven of us pulled it to pieces and transported it here." He surveys the museum with some relish such as a photo of a plump prize-winning pig entered by his great-uncle at the 1939 Dandenong Show. A poster advertises a Clearing Sale of a former Narre Warren farm, with a tractor, plough, 35 cows and 15 springers up for grabs. Asked for a highlight among the collection, Mr Marriott says: "All of it - it's a wonderful collection of memorabilia. "It's our pastoral heritage. A lot of people don't know it's here." Many of that group have departed, including the late Graeme Allan, Rob Bowman, Geoff Carson and Alex Morgan.
Alex Nelson Pavilion ransacked Burglars have swiped booze, food and equipment from a sports pavilion in Alex Nelson Reserve, Springvale South. The multi-purpose pavilion off Harold Road was broken into between 7.30pm on Tuesday 20 August and 2.30pm on Wednesday 21 August. Among the loot was a substantial amount of alcohol, a defibrillator, a games machine, chocolates and soft drinks, electrical speakers and a pair of fire extinguishers Police say the intruders took two trolleys from the clubrooms to transport their heist across a playing field to a nearby car park. Any information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au, or Greater Dandenong CIU on 9767 7487.
Two teens charged with railway robbery Two females have been charged over a violent robbery outside Dandenong railway station. A 29-year-old Dandenong woman was allegedly approached by the pair near the Foster Street entrance about 4.40pm on Wednesday 21 August. Without warning, the victim was felled by a strike to the face, police say. The teens then continued to beat the victim on the ground, took her purse and run away. They were followed across several streets by a witness, who called triple-0. An 18-year-old and a 17-year-old, both from Dandenong, were soon after arrested. They were charged with robbery and assault. The pair were remanded to face a court on 22 August.
Stolen car explodes A loud explosion was heard by residents after a stolen car was set alight in Nockolds Crescent, Noble Park. The red 1989 Nissan Pulsar had been stolen from a home in Wheeler Court, Wheelers Hill overnight on 13 August. The car was then abandoned and exploded about 1am on Monday 25 August. A second vehicle was seen leaving the fire scene. Any information to Greater Dandenong CIU on 9767 7487 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or crimestoppersvic.com.au.

GROW BUSINESS … Casey Cardinia Region
Manage what you measure TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS IAN ASH
Dani Lawrence, executive assistant Brooke De Silva and Lana Bonnet at the Waterman Business Centre in Narre Warren. L&D Picturesque Painting was contracted to paint all three Waterman sites. 196952
Painting a path for the female tradies By Narelle Coulter Lana Bonnet and Dani Lawrence are young businesswomen who have fought not only to get their painting and decorating firm off the ground, but also the prejudice that lingers about women working in trades. The best friends are the owners and co-directors of L&D Picturesque Painting based in Narre Warren. They describe themselves as commercial and domestic painters who are also “empowering women to shake the mould of the typical tradie." Dani and Lana learnt the painting and decorating business working alongside relatives who were in the trade as they were growing up. They decided to start their own businesses when they were just 23 and 22, determined to do things differently. Their initial foray into small business faltered because the money was too inconsistent. To make ends meet, Lana got a job at a call centre and Dani resumed working with her dad. “One lunch time I cracked it. I rang Dani and said 'I am going to throw this in. Do you want to give it (our own business) a crack tomorrow? Let’s just do it and learn as we go," Lana said. That was 2014. In the five years since the women have built a thriving business that services the South East and greater metropolitan Melbourne. Clients include Barbecues Galore, Trade Link, Melbourne Body Corporate, O’Brien Real Estate Pakenham and the Waterman group. It hasn’t been an easy road for the friends. As young females in a traditionally male business they admit they struggled to gain clients’ trust. “I had a door slammed in my face once because the person thought a guy was coming out to give the quote,“ remembered Lana.
The women have also been asked when will their husbands will be available? Lana said those attitudes rarely surface now because she and Dani are more confident about their roles and the work delivered by L & D Picturesque Painting. “We had to just let it go and move onto the next customer." With strong ethics underpinning the business - their motto is Professional. Punctual. Precise - the women soon found that clients appreciated their honesty and commitment to get jobs done quickly and to a high standard. “As we grew I think we put it out there that yes we are women, we are proud to do what we do and we do it well. “We have integrity and we live and breathe our values.“ The business partners have learnt many lessons along the way, not least how to block out the negative voices who told them they wouldn’t succeed. It is message of resilience and self-belief that they pass on to other young women through Savage Angles. Lana is an ambassador for the organisation which was founded by Casey businessman John McMahon to helped troubled teenage girls. “I talk to young women about the three things that have helped me succeed - a strong circle of influence, having courage and resilience,“ Lana said. They are also keen to encourage other young women to follow in their professional footsteps. “We want to change the statistics, we want to make women in construction equal in number to men,“ Lana said. “I would love to see in 10 years that when you walk onto a massive building site you see just as many females working there as you do males."

and business development, while Dani project manages. If a job needs to be finished, both women will roll up their sleeves and get on the tools. The stress of running their own business has, at times, been overwhelming. At one point the women had 18 staff and had to find $18,000 a week in wages. They now have a much more manageable three employees and use a team of contractors. Early on the fledgling business was nearly crushed when a client defaulted on a $20,000 invoice. “We sat there with $50 between us and thought ’What are we going to do now?’ It was sheer determination and willingness to succeed that pulled us through,“ Lana said. “We had sub-contractors knocking on the door wanting their money, that was the toughest." When times get tough they rely on their 15 year friendship, forged over a shared love of playing soccer. The women rent a house together and Lana says their friendship is based on being “100 per cent honest with each other". “We are both willing to give it a red hot crack and risk everything. I can make a decision and I know she’ll back it and the same if Dani makes a decision." They also rely on business coach and mentor Shelley Flett who has helped them with staff issues, internal processes, time management and keeps them positive about the future. “I just love running a business,“ Lana said. “I love setting goals, achieving them and looking back on how far we’ve come. It is tough, probably the toughest thing I’ve ever had to do, but my dream has always been to succeed. I love being on this journey with Dani, building something for the future for both of us.“
In England it is not unusual to see a board with what looks like a thermometer painted on it placed in the grounds of a church and facing out to the public. The top of the ’thermometer’ will show how much is required to restore some part of the church (usually the steeple) and provides a visual representation of how much has been contributed to date. As progress is made towards the target so contributions typically go up as people like to feel they have contributed to the final result. Turns out, it is much the same in business and the simple act of publishing a target and regularly showing progress against this does much to galvanise action around achieving the ultimate goal. However many businesses don’t tend to do this and hence miss a golden opportunity to not only provide real evidence of achievement, but also to build teamwork and alignment amongst the staff. In last month’s column, I discussed the importance of setting well-defined goals and how properly defining these would give rise to a number of business benefits. Whilst setting SMART goals is important, there is little value in doing this if you are not going to track progress against them. This is generally not hard to do and there is simply no substitute for providing a graphical representation of progress against whatever target you want to hit - no one needs to read loads of text since charts provide immediate visibility of what’s happening. I find this approach especially valuable for tracking financial performance. In reviewing financials with a client over the past six months, we noticed that the actual sales were trending away from budget in February/ March. Armed with this ‘early warning signal’, the CEO took decisive action to get things back on track and, sure enough, ended up exceeding his annual sales target. This approach has proven especially valuable with a lot of manufacturing clients since they have adopted the same mechanisms for tracking quality, delivery in full and on-time (DIFOT), absenteeism and defect levels and it will come as no surprise that “what gets measured, gets managed” (a phrase typically attributed to management consultant Peter Drucker). As indicated above, not only do such charts provide a useful early warning system on trends, they also do much to align team members around achieving the objective and hence can also be a useful source of team-building as well. Moreover, whenever such charts are published, it sends a clear signal to everyone in the business that the stuff being measured and reported on is important and since people like to be part of a winning team, with the appropriate level of context and communication, there is a shared sense of attainment when the publicised target is achieved. However, don’t be afraid to publish results even if things are going in the wrong direction, doing so will demonstrate that the results are being monitored, are important and will provide an excellent background to any subsequent management decisions to address the decline. Have a think about what targets are important to achieve in your business and try plotting progress against the these. I would love to hear back on the results you obtain.

‘Unguided missile’ bailed By Cam Lucadou-Wells An accused drug-driver who allegedly led a fast late-morning police pursuit through a supermarket car park and the wrong side of the road in central Noble Park has been granted bail. Travis Smith, 22, with a long list of prior convictions, was likened to an "unguided missile" by magistrate Daniel Muling during a hearing at Dandenong Magistrates' Court on 27 August. In opposing bail, police regarded Smith as an "extreme risk" of re-offending. Police say they parked behind Smith in a stolen 1998 Skyline coupe at the 7-11 service station at the corner of Douglas and Heatherton roads about 10.30am on Thursday 1 August. Smith then allegedly accelerated at a fast rate through the busy rear car park of Coles Supermarket.
The coupe allegedly sped up to 100 km/h in a 50 km/h zone on Frank Street, and crossed on the wrong side of the road into incoming traffic at a roundabout at Noble and Buckley streets. An hour later, the same car was allegedly screeching a burnout and "hooning up and down the street, driving backwards and throwing things out the window" in Banksia Street, Doveton. Smith was soon after arrested after allegedly running from police, jumping fences and hopping on a stolen mountain bike in Tarata Drive, Doveton. He allegedly tested positive for meth and cannabis, the court heard. At the time, Smith was wanted for failing to appear at court for charges of attempted car stealing and attempted theft from a vehicle in Fitzroy North. He also faced charges of two alleged petrol drive-offs and a theft of a beer slab from a bot-
tle shop - although CCTV images from one of the drive-offs didn't appear to feature Smith, his lawyer said. Smith's prior convictions included armed robbery, robbery, aggravated burglary, intentionally causing injury, affray and bail offences. He had more than 20 previous convictions for theft and 30 for car theft. Mr Muling noted that the "driving in the middle of the day in a suburban area is as bad as it gets, particularly given you were affected by drugs when this took place". "You can expect that a court will consider that a jail sentence is open because of the danger that you caused. "It seems that on every occasion (at court) you've received a sentence of detention so it's fair to say you've been an unguided missile over a period of time." Mr Muling however said Smith had met the "compelling reasons" test for bail.
He noted Smith's young age, his substancefree stint in remand for the past 26 days, and that he'd never received intensive support under the CISP bail program. With the help of CISP, Smith's "real risk" of re-offending could be reduced to an acceptable level. "From almost 24 years' experience sitting as a magistrate I'm well aware of the positive results that CISP have been able to achieve for persons like yourself with significant drug, alcohol and mental health issues. "You know if you were to go back on the gear, all bets are off." Smith was bailed on a night curfew, to live with a close relative and her three young children in Endeavour Hills. His conditions included not to drive or use illicit drugs. Smith was bailed to appear at Dandenong Magistrates' Court on 24 September.
Plenty of Space for dessert Science and gastronomics collided in a seismic week of events at Lyndale Secondary College, Dandenong North. Science Week started with liquid nitrogen for snap-freezing lollies and flowers, and for creating instant ice-cream with custard and mint chocolates. It ended with a Great Science Cake BakeOff for staff and students. With the theme of 'Space', some stellar bakes included a homage to the first Moon landing and a diagram of the Solar System. Shraddha, Suha, Rivindi, Ayesha and Hitanshi took out the first prize for students. In the staff category, Gayana Weerasinghe took the honours.
Other activities included a paper-plane engineering comp with student Prany's plane soaring 19 metres, a science quiz and a Jeans for Genes fundraiser that collected $150.

The ceremony of officially opening the bridge recently erected across the creek on the Main Road, near Dandenong, took place on Friday last in the presence of upwards of a thousand people. Perfect weather conditions prevailed, and the function passed off most successfully. Portions of the bridge were gaily decorated with red, white and blue streamers. The large attendance included Mr Lawson, the State Premier, Mr F Groves MLA; Mr Calder of the Country Roads Board, and representatives of adjoining municipalities.

Mr Nguyen encouraged the police's hard line on drug traffickers. "Vietnamese drug dealers, like all drug dealers, are not a welcome part of our society.

This is how Australia's Prime Minister , Mr Gorton, dismissed threats that a bomb had been planted in the Dandenong Town Hall on Friday night. Many of the 300 people at the dinner, thought Mr Gorton was joking. It was later found, however, that police received two calls, one at 7.50pm and one at 8pm that a bomb was planted in the town hall. Commonwealth and local police made a thorough check

Rotary donation helps out By Brendan Rees A Casey school's dream of opening a health training hub is one step closer thanks to the generosity of Rotary Club of Berwick. A donation of about $50,000 in medical equipment including five hospital beds will go towards Hallam Senior College's allied health training centre which is due to open next year. Other items include bed side tables, over bed cupboards, day chairs, wheels chairs, transfer boards, body lifters, crutches, physio tables, and disposal gloves. Community Services and Allied Health VET courses will be delivered at the new training centre with more than 40 students expected to participate. The school will also transform part of a building into a simulated hospital in a $20-$30 million refurbishment project. Rotary Club of Berwick members joined school staff and local politicians to discuss the project on Thursday 22 August. Hallam Senior College executive principal

President of the Rotary Club of Berwick Isobel Caulfield said the donation was a joint effort with Rotary Donations in Kind who donate essential items to organisations around the world. "That's what Rotary is good at - is actually connecting people and joining the dots," she said. In another first, the College will team up with the South East Local Learning and Employment Network (SELLEN) to provide a program of study for young parents who would otherwise not finish school. "It's a very exciting time for young people who are pregnant and/or parenting to be able to return to their education and bring their baby with them," SELLEN partnerships facilitator Mary Tresize - Brown said. In the past four years since trialling the Young Parents Education Program more than 60 young parents have completed Year 12 education and are now in employed or undertaking tertiary study.

Overdose deaths soar Janine Bray and Geoffrey Daniel return to the playground they helped found. 197013 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS
Park for people, by people By Cam Lucadou-Wells
John Ryan, chief executive of the Penington Institute. bilise as deaths due to illicit drugs like heroin, fentanyl and methamphetamine skyrocketed. "Reducing access to prescription drugs without addressing the underlying causes simply changes the types of drugs that are abused - with fatal consequences."
The much-loved timber-tower playspace in Burden Park, Springvale South owes everything to community spirit. Opened 25 years ago, it was built by an army of up to 1500 residents and some of the local Army Reserve over five days of toil. The 'childrens castle' theme was based on the customised Leathers playground concept, and remains unique in Greater Dandenong. Supporters' names are still enshrined on the playground's palings to this day. The project was largely paid for by two years of fundraising - raffles, a rock-n-roll night and donations totalling $120,000. Janine Bray and Geoffrey Daniel were among a determined committee of about six residents who led the project from start to finish. "It was special because it was community built," Ms Bray said. Many businesses and club got behind it with donations and supplies, Ms Bray said. The City of Greater Dandenong supplied a Mazda for the committee to raffle off for funds.
Mr Daniel remembers the masses of volunteers fed with free breakfasts and lunches onsite. Food and drinks were provided from markets, market gardens, the then-Victorian Milk Board, hospitals, frozen food suppliers and cake shops. Tools, paints and building supplies came from hardware stores. Once it was built, it felt like there was true ownership by the community, Mr Daniel said. "It was one of those things where someone had a great idea, and it brought people together in a big way. "We needed something for Springvale. "It was a community giving back to each other." The space has become a meeting area, a place for a barbecue, to shoot hoops or to explore the timber maze. "It's not intimidating, it's not all concrete, no bright lights and no advertising," Mr Daniel says. "It's just a community meeting place." A 25th anniversary barbecue will be held in Burden Park on Sunday 8 September 11.30am1pm. All welcome. 12424381-CG34-19
Unintentional drug overdoses are killing a soaring number of people in the Dandenong region, according to new research figures. Research body Penington Institute released the figures with its Australia's Annual Overdose Report published on 27 August. It found that 71 people died from overdoses from illicit and prescription drugs in the Dandenong region in a five-year period between 2013-17. It was up by 31 per cent from the death toll in 2008-12. The increase is less than the Greater Melbourne rise of 40 per cent and Frankston (77 per cent). Penington Institute chief executive John Ryan said overdose deaths across Australia had reached "crisis" point. More than 1600 had died in 2017. About 71 per cent of the deceased were aged between 30 and 59 years old. "We must treat overdose deaths as preventable. "We know what works in saving lives and reducing the harms from overdose deaths. "We're just not doing enough of it." Underpinning the rise is a significant increases in deaths involving 'anti-depressants' or benzodiazepines, pharmaceutical opioids, and illicit substances such as 'ice' and heroin. There was also a rise in deaths involving four or more substances. "When it comes to opioids, we're careening down a similar paths as America. "About seven years ago, their overdose deaths from prescription opioids began to sta-
The Metro Tunnel will make your journey easier no matter how you decide to travel Some of Melbourne’s busiest train lines – Sunbury, Cranbourne and Pakenham – will run exclusively through the new Metro Tunnel. It will untangle the City Loop, Melbourne’s biggest bottleneck. The Metro Tunnel will create room for additional passengers during peak times on the Cranbourne, Pakenham, Frankston and Sandringham lines and cut travel times to Parkville and St Kilda Road by up to 50 minutes a day. With more frequent trains carrying more people to destinations across Melbourne, the Metro Tunnel will also help take cars off our busy roads. From 2 September, Flinders Street eastbound will be closed between Elizabeth Street and Swanston Street for up to three years. Thanks for your patience as we build the Metro Tunnel.

We all heard about the Boomers besting the USA in a basketball exhibition match in Melbourne recently. On 21 August, there was another set of international friendlies hosted in Dandenong. The locally-based Red Roo Sports mens and womens teams took on the best players from Hawaii at Hoops 24/7 courts in fast, entertaining games. It comes on the back of several on-court and off-court achievements by this club led and bankrolled by businessman James Kerr since 2015. The club has snared a host of local and international trophies. The most recent being Red Roo's Under 16 boys who won the South Sudanese Australian National Basketball Association championships in Sydney in July. The Star Journal also recently featured some of the Red Roo players, Oyiti Amum and Daniel Akuei, that have been awarded US college scholarships.

Season over for Stingrays By Tyler Lewis A blistering final term from the Calder Cannons has halted the rampaging Dandenong Stingrays, edging them out of their premiership defence in Sunday's elimination final. The Cannons slammed home six goals in the last term to run away with the 11.9 (75) to 5.9 (39) victory. After slugging it out for the opening stages of the match, Ned Cahill tumbled a ball to a leading Clayton Gay who ran around onto his trusty left boot to kickstart the Rays. It was a scrappy affair with only one major either side to the first interval, but late in the term it threatened to open up with the swift ball movement from the likes of Lachlan Williams and Will Lewis driving Dandenong forward. The second term saw the Rays extend their margin to three goals before the Cannons bit back with back-to-back goals including one on the half-time siren. For the third term, the sides were inseparable - Kobi George nailed his first from a smooth moving rove while Luca Goonan and Jack Toner continued to find the footy at will. Leading by only three points at the final break, a thriller loomed. Unfortunately for the Rays, the Cannons found another gear and kicked away with the six-goal victory. For many of the top age Stingrays, the most important time of the year will begin - for the bottom agers it is time to prepare for the allimportant draft year. In the meantime in the Eastern Football League, Rowville went down in its elimination final to South Croydon, 7.8 (50) to 12.15 (87). A best afield performance wasn't quite enough for the Hawks as a goalless second term kept them at bay for the remainder of the match. A five-goal premiership term clawed Rowville back into the match but the Hawks seemed to have given it all as the Dogs burst into a semi-final next week. In the qualifying final, Ex-Western Bulldogs and Gold Coast coach Rodney Eade guided his Balwyn side into a semi-final clash against Vermont with a 15.10 (100) to 10.10 (70) victory over Blackburn. Blackburn will take on South Croydon in

Luca Goonan was everywhere in the Stingrays' loss on Sunday. 192826 another do-or-die match-up. In Southern Football League Division 2, the Doveton Eagles have knocked Keysborough out of the finals race in straight sets. The Eagles kicked five unanswered majors in the second term to storm away to a handy buffer, before being tested in the final term by the fast-finishing Burras. The Beers, Matt and Nick paired for a finals winning performance while Nick Battle and Adam Read both converted twice. For the Burras, although only booting the one major, Chris Bryan was best afield. Matt Carnelley booted three majors as he put another triple to his name for the 10th
time this season. The Eagles will now play Murrumbeena in the preliminary final on the weekend with a full head of steam from back-to-back finals wins. In Division 3, Endeavour Hills will be ruing letting Clayton off to the start it did in the preliminary final as the Hills were unable to claw back the quarter-time margin. Clayton booted six goals to the Hills' four behinds in the first stanza and the margin remained similar for the remainder of the match as the Clays booked a spot in the big dance, 14.9 (93) to 7.11 (53). Sam Delosa slotted three for the Hills while Chris Morrison was the best for Clayton. Clay-
Dandy District cricket fixtures released By Nick Creely The start of a new cricket season is only a month away, and the Dandenong District Cricket Association (DDCA) has released the official fixtures in what looms as a massive year. As one of the most successful and revered turf competitions anywhere in Victoria, the DDCA is set for yet another exciting season, with the Turf 1 grade one of the most impressive in recent memory, with each side capable of winning the premiership and stamping its authority as the champion side of the association. The opening day of Turf 1 season on 5 October will begin with an absolute blockbuster between Berwick and Springvale South at Arch Brown Reserve in what will be a two-day game ending on 12 October, while newcomer Narre South will be welcome into the top tier with an away clash against Heinz Southern Districts at Reedy Reserve. Last season's grand finalists, Springvale South and Buckley Ridges, will meet for the first time in a white-ball clash in Round 5, with the Bloods looking to turn the tables on the champion Bucks side, which has seemingly gone from strength-to-strength after an impressive new batch of recruits. In Turf 2, Beaconsfield and Lyndale are set to test themselves in their new grade in the opening round, taking on Dandenong West and Dingley respectively, with the revamped grade - sparked from exits to different associations by Mordialloc and St Brigid's/St Louis - looking to be one of the most even yet, with Turf 2 runners-up last year, Narre North, tak16 STAR JOURNAL

ton will now face Hampton Park in the grand final in attempt to cause a boil over. The Redbacks and Clays met only two weeks ago where the Redbacks won by seven goals. And in Division 4, the second term separated the Frankston Dolphins and South Yarra. The Lions kicked five unanswered majors in the second term and it consequently proved the difference in the 9.8 (62) to 6.8 (44) victory. The win for South Yarra has set up a top-ofthe-table grand final clash between the Lions and Lyndhurst, which played in the qualifying only two weeks ago where the Lightning won by 23 points.
A big thrill for Joe Abela By Mick Floyd One Thrill gave 79-year-old trainer Joe Abela another thrill in a lifetime spent in greyhound racing, winning the final race on Thursday night. The 25-month-old pup was backed from $3.80 into $2.60, and the punters' confidence proved well founded after One Thrill jumped straight to the front to win by 5.5 lengths. "Yeah, I had something on him, he likes the inside box." Abela told RSN Central. "I had a quicker step this morning." Abela began training in 1968, making him one of the state's longest licensed trainers. He has his team of two racing dogs, keeping him fit and active. "It's my life, I like getting up in the morning and they're happy to see me," he said.
Buckley Ridges and Springvale South will do battle in Round 5. 191688 ing on Parkmore Pirates. In Turf 3, Berwick Springs will make the jump after an impressive Turf 4 season last year, taking on Keysborough on the opening day of the season, while Springvale will also

Jack is setting the tone By Tyler Lewis
Dandenong Stingray Jack Toner is as determined as they come. 194400 integral part of the school. "A lot of money is put towards it - we all have a GPS in our jumpers and heaps of staff. "My best achievement was winning the flag with Haileybury last year and that was one of the best times on a footy field - we had 10 games with a great group of mates and great coaching staff. "We would just do anything for each other and when football is like that it is just seriously enjoyable. "And Lloydy was awesome for me, he did

a lot of work with me one-on-one on Tuesday mornings, we would work on midfield craft. "A guy that experienced being able to teach a bunch of 17, 18-year-old kids is invaluable." Graduating from Haileybury College a year before his draft, Toner has had the year to set up his life outside of football and learn from his classmates who went it onto an AFL list in 2019. "I finished school, graduated last year as a 17-year-old and this year have been working at my dad's business and doing a uni degree part
Talented youngsters are heading north By Nick Creely A handful of Dandenong Cricket Club's most talented youngsters have been named in the final 14-player Vic Country and Metro squads in this year's Under 17 National Championships, to be held in Mackay, Queensland. Angus Newman - the younger brother of Victorian rookie Ed - headlines the list of Panthers selected in the Metro squad, with the talented batsman impressing in his first season in Premier Cricket last year, scoring 314 runs at 52.3 mixed between the thirds and the fourths. Selected in the Country squad, fellow Panthers, Raheel Bostan and Boopa Munasinghe, have also been selected, with the pair also showcasing their talents in club cricket last season. Bostan in particular made a splash and will be pushing hard for a first XI debut this season, with the young spinner showing excellent signs and even cracking in for four games in the seconds, taking 3/37 against Camberwell
Magpies. Munasinghe, a fellow spinner developing in the lower level, is also a player on the rise. The annual carnival pits the best young talent from each state in a round-robin tournament, with the squads selected after training sessions across winter, with some held at CitiPower Centre. Cricket Victoria high performance head coach Jarrad Loughman told the Cricket Victoria website that there was plenty of talent to choose from after a grueling trial process. "It was very pleasing to see so many young cricketers showcasing their talent over the past few months," Loughman said. "The squads have been working hard over winter and the breadth of talent that we have seen from both those trialing for Metro and Country has been promising. It shows us that the future of elite Victorian cricket is in a good place. "Congratulations to all selected. We can't

Jack Toner is synonymous with the word 'determination'. The youngster from Narre Warren and the Dandenong Stingrays has accomplished plenty from a very young age and will stop at nothing until he reaches his dream. Toner - like many - began as a young kid in the backyard before pulling on the black and white stripes at Narre Warren where his dad Chris is a club icon. "I started my juniors at seven-years-old right through to under-12s at Narre Warren," he said. "We won a flag in 11s and 12s, and I moved off to East Brighton and played in the interleague teams in that time and played at the Victorian team when I was at Narre. "I had a pretty good junior career, a few accolades I am proud of. "Dad's been huge for me, from a young age he had me out in the backyard, and we were just training my craft as they say, having a kick. "Even little things like 'If you drop this mark Narre will lose the premiership this year' and I wouldn't want to drop the mark. "All the little things like that have held me in good stead - I can't thank him enough for all he has done for me." Toner moved into the Associated Public Schools (APS) system when he pulled on the famous Haileybury jumper during his time at school, an experience that has boosted his chances come the pointy end of the year, earning the praise and time of AFL legend Matthew Lloyd. "Last year I was playing school footy for Haileybury so I was in the APS system and when I was available I was playing at Dandenong or Narre Warren," he said. "The academics definitely are prioritised a lot more but the school footy is definitely an
time," he said. "I am at Deakin but I am just doing it online so, doing Bachelor of Business and Sport Management, and working part time for my dad's plumbing business in an admin role. "I am pretty close mates with Max King from St Kilda, Liam Stocker (Carlton) and even Matt Cottrell who got picked up in summer to Carlton. "Whenever I can I like to catch up with those boys, or shoot them a message and ask them 'how did you handle this and what are some things that I should be trying to put forward to try and put my name in lights." Sitting tight waiting for his opportunity, Toner is strong-minded and is passionate about achieving his dreams, idolising some of the sport's best - he is open to expressing his talent whatever it takes to get the ultimate individual goal if it doesn't go to plan after his brilliant year at Dandenong. "I love watching Jack Billings from St Kilda and I love the tenacity of Trent Cotchin, they both go about their footy the way somewhere down the track I would love to be like," he said. "I have been consistent across the board, pretty proud of my year thus far and hopefully can keep going deep into the finals and showcase what I can bring to the table. "I think sometimes you have to be determined each quarter to get the best out of yourself, and you can't just rest and say 'I have had a good quarter that quarter'. "You have to drive and keep working into the next because it is never enough - you can never be doing too well to not go for more possessions or not keep working on your game. "I'm never satisfied until the end result come November. "I would definitely keep my local club as Narre, but I would explore all options - VFL or NEAFL, I will give myself the best chance, and stay determined until I get what I want."
