Mum’s heartbreak By Brendan Rees A young pregnant woman who lost her unborn child claims she was “purely neglected” by Casey Hospital after being turned away five times. Kristy Watson of Blind Bight said she experienced “textbook” symptoms for pre-eclampsia when she was six months pregnant in June 2018. However, the single mum at the time said the condition went undiagnosed and was sent home with Panadeine Forte and told to “come in if it was worsening”. The then 19-year-old said she started experiencing symptoms of swelling in her face, feet and hands, blurry vision and bad headaches. For the next three weeks Ms Watson attended the hospital a further four times with her symptoms worsening, including protein in her urine and high blood pressure before her unborn son Kaycen died in her womb at 33 weeks. Ms Watson is now launching legal action against Monash Health. “It wasn’t just one mistake made,” she said. “I had my whole family telling me to go back, go to different hospitals but I trusted the hospital in what they were saying. “Obviously no money is going to put a price on my child but I’m hoping this will be the closure of my journey.” At one stage she said she was turned away because her doctor was in “a meeting”. “I just wished they had listened more. “My mum’s first reaction was ‘she’s been in here so many times, how the hell have you not picked up on this?’” When she was eventually admitted on 27 July, Ms Watson claimed staff told her “that I was going to have him” but when they did the ultrasound “they didn’t realise he wasn’t alive anymore”. “I was just in so much pain all the time. I could barely move; I could barely get out of bed. Pregnancy towards the end was obsolutely horrible for me.” Ms Watson, now 20, said for the past two

IN BRIEF

Guard knife attack By Brendan Rees A woman brandishing a knife has been arrested after allegedly stabbing one security guard and slashing the shirt of another at Fountain Gate Shopping Centre on Wednesday 25 June. The incident unfolded when security staff approached a man and a woman outside a department store, believed to be Kmart, after suspecting they had stolen items about 5.30pm, police say. “The conversation escalated into an aggressive altercation with the woman allegedly producing a knife and slashing the arm of one of the security staff,” a Victoria Police spokesperson said. “Police say the pair then ran back through

the store with the two security guards following. The altercation continued with the woman allegedly lunging at one of the security officers, slashing his shirt,” the spokesperson said. A male customer rushed to the aid of the security officers and tackled the man while the woman allegedly continued her rampage and threatened staff and customers. A number of police units attended and arrested a 34-year-old Narre Warren South woman and a 39-year-old Noble Park man. Paramedics were also called and the pair were taken to hospital after sustaining injuries. The woman remains in hospital with the man being released into police custody on Thursday morning, 26 June.

Police say a security guard was also taken to hospital with a stab wound. Detectives are currently interviewing the Noble Park man over the incident and he is expected to appear at the Dandenong Magistrates Court on Thursday morning, 26 June. In a statement, Ambulance Victoria said: “A woman in her 30s was treated for a hand injury. A man in his 30s and a man, believed to be in his 20s, were treated for upper body injuries,” the statement said. All three were taken to Dandenong Hospital in stable condition. One onlooker described the incident as a “big scene”, which was cordoned off with police tape.

Covid rate climbs Casey City has reported 21 confirmed active cases of the virus, making it the fifth highest area in the state in terms of current infections. It comes as rising coronavirus infections across Melbourne saw an unprecedented testing blitz in 10 suburban hotspots including Casey, with Hallam singled out as a seat of community transmission. According to the latest health data, from Wednesday 1 July, Victoria notched up its 15th consecutive day of double-digit growth - with cases rising by 73 to 2231. Of those, 1839 people have recovered from the virus. In nearby council areas, Greater Dandenong had three active cases of the virus while Cardinia - a named ‘hotspot’ last week - had none. Within Victoria, nine new cases were linked to outbreaks, 19 new cases have been identified through routine testing and 42 cases are under investigation. Three new cases have been detected in returned travellers in hotel quarantine. Fifteen people were in hospital, including two patients in intensive care. There were 301 confirmed cases believed to be related to community transmission in the state.

Police appeal for help Narre Warren Police are investigating following a theft from a chemist in Narre Warren on Friday 19 June. Police say a woman attended at a pharmacy on level one at the Magid Drive shopping centre about 7.45pm. It’s alleged the woman selected a tanning device valued at $150 before leaving the store without paying. Investigators have released images of a woman who they believe can assist with their enquiries. The woman is perceived to be Caucasian in appearance, aged in her 30s with blonde hair. She was wearing a black jacket, light coloured jeans and carrying a large black bag. Anyone with information is asked to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Disgust as lazy drivers mark their turf By Brendan Rees A former Casey deputy mayor says those responsible for churning up a Narre Warren walkway with deep tyre marks need to be held accountable. Rex Flannery said he had been walking his dog along the 1.5 kilometre trail when he came across the damage at the corner of Parkhill Drive and Princes Highway on Tuesday 30 June. “People have just got no respect, it’s irresponsible,” he said. Mr Flannery suspected those in the wrong were contractors as they would have had access to a key to unlock and remove the single bollard from the middle of the path to carry out works.

“The only people who can do that are either council or contractors.” Casey Council manager of city presentation David Richardson said council had determined that the damage to the nature strip was not caused by council works. “Other agencies may have accessed the area to undertake work on their assets, but the cause is still under investigation. Council officers are following up and remedial works will be undertaken,” he said. Meanwhile, Mr Flannery said it was disappointing that people feel they “can do whatever they like” and “drive away because there’s no consequences for their action”. He said he saw workers cutting trees along the track not long ago but made no

suggestion they had caused the damage. He said when councillors were installed they could visit the scene of issues raised by members of the public and get it resolved straight away. “I would be making them go back and fixing it up,” he said. “Contractors get in there and they take the yellow post out and they drive into the walkway to cut trees or whatever they do and they just dig it up all up and they don’t care about the consequences. “Since councillors haven’t been in place, people are just doing what they want to do now. “The only people who care are the people that report it,” he said.

A Hampton Park teen allegedly clocked driving 138km/h on Sunday 28 June has had his car impounded and now faces an array of charges. The Air Wing police spotted a Holden Commodore and a Honda Accord allegedly travelling at speed on the Monash Freeway in Dandenong just after midnight. Police tracked the vehicles which were allegedly detected travelling at 120km/h in a 60km on Heatherton Road. Dandenong Highway Patrol police joined the search and the two vehicles were located a short time later in a car park on Buckley Street in Noble Park, police say. There were four occupants in each vehicle. Police spoke to a 19-year-old Hampton Park man and a 19-year-old Dandenong man. One driver was a learner without a supervising passenger and the other driver was a P2 licence holder. The two men are expected to be charged on summons with speed dangerous, multiple exceeding speed limits and various charges specific to each licence holder. Both vehicles were immediately impounded under the hoon legislation. 12445562-DL13-20

OPINION It would appear that the Victorian response to the testing for Covid-19 should be put into the too hard basket or impossible dream realm. Further to Mitchell Clarke’s offering, it would appear that the fear engendered by the daily narrative and media outpourings have had some unusual results. The State Government and indeed the local member should be embarrassed and ashamed at the mixed, confused or no messages being promulgated and the inappropriate and what appears inept responses to the situation. We have seen over the preceding weeks socalled health experts agreeing to the release of thousands off of contaminated cruise ships, and planes. Repatriated citizens from real hot spots apparently redefining social distancing and going out via the exit for a “walk“ during their quarantine. I guess that’s why the PSOs are being considered now rather than the private security arrangements. Mass meetings for the flavour of the month demonstration where participants have conveniently taken the message and most likely virus back to their work places (eg Northland) and schools (eg Heritage Springs). We have had one of our own Victorian expert more concerned with including personal party political remarks re: addressing the history of colonisation. We have the WHO leader trying to assuage the guilt of the origin of the disease and downplaying the role of masks and prognosticating as to what a pandemic really is. I guess now with 10 million infected and 500,000 deaths he knows. We are told that it is only a disease that affects, significantly the elderly and those with “underlying conditions“ with transmission, survivability of the virus, surface contamination, incubation period etc being somewhat of a best guesstimate this despite anecdotal reports to the contrary. We are also told that if we have any mild symptoms to get tested almost on an hourly basis. I guess that includes anyone with chronic hayfever who sneezes to make a point. Yet what does the Victorian Health “Displan“ have to offer ? Much to the chagrin and horror of the Brittany’s and David’s they find extensive waits, being turned away and results that could be false positives or even false negatives and a testing system that can’t cope or is not available. If we are to believe Brett Sutton you can have it one day and suddenly as if in a miracle it is gone within 24 hours. Some people are being told to wait for a week for the results yet you hear that some are getting theirs within 24 hours that’s if you happen to be a sportsperson. In the meantime you might get some messaging and some nice people knocking on your door telling you to wash your hands, stay home and keep away from others. If you have managed to get a test and test positive stay home for 14 days and all will be well. So be part of the testing process if you can find one and save a life! Charles Harris, Pakenham.

SOCIALLY SPEAKING On 29 June the Cranbourne Star News Facebook page shared a story about a woman paying tribute to her ‘caring and loving’ father whose body was found dumped next to Rangebank Primary School on Friday 26 June. Here are how our readers reacted: Sharon Aumann: So very sad for his daughters. I hope they have a mum as it’s not mentioned. RIP. Robyn Disher: This is so very sad. May you rest in peace. Condolences to his three daughters. Karen Jarman: So sad. Thinking of his girls. On 26 June the Cranbourne Star News Facebook page shared a graph from the Department of Health and Human Services indicating a spike in active Covid-19 cases in Casey City since late May. Here are how our readers reacted: Damien James: It looks like they have been reclassifying a lot of those who were originally listed in Melbourne. So there is a lot of return travellers in those you would expect. Really need to break it down further. Linda Styles: But only Hallam was listed as a hotspot so how are we so high??

A much-loved dad

Water fix for NW reserve

By Brendan Rees The daughter of a man whose body was found dumped next to a Cranbourne primary school has remembered her dad as a “very quiet, compassionate soul”. The much-loved father and grandfather’s body was found by passers-by in a carpark at the Donnelly Reserve car park on Lesdon Avenue, near Rangebank Primary School, about 7am on Friday 26 June. He was identified as 47-year-old Michael Mammone of Cranbourne East. His daughter Brodie Mammone said her family were devastated and described his death as “completely unprovoked”. “The overwhelming amount of devastation our family is feeling through this traumatic event is something so hard to fathom and explain,” she said. “They’ve not only taken away a man, but someone who had their whole life ahead of them, with many memories to fulfil.” Rangebank Primary School was closed on Friday 26 June as police swarmed the scene following the grisly discovery of his body. Homicide Squad detectives initially released images of Mr Mammone’s car, a silver 2008 BMW 118i sedan to the public in the hope to piece together his final moments. That car was found on Miller Court in Cranbourne about 7.30pm on Saturday 27 June and towed away for examination. Ms Mammone said she couldn’t understand why someone would want her father killed. “We love and miss our father dearly, it’s terrifying to know that the monster who did this is still out there. “The pain in not knowing his final thoughts, his suffering and his last moments is unbearable. “They’ve taken away a man who needed to be here to witness first steps, birthdays, mar-

riages and Christmases.” Ms Mammone said her father loved the farming life, having grown up as a market gardener from a young age, following in his parent’s footsteps. “He used to just plod along doing his own thing. He was an old soul in a 40’s body, he loved the Robbie Williams classics, green day and ‘fangirled’ over Delta Goodrem, we spent our childhood listening to it blaring throughout our home,” she said. Ms Mammone said she and her two sisters also had fond memories of running through the paddocks in their gumboots with their dad. “He taught us all how to ride horses when we were young, he used to rock his cowboy hat, he was so proud,” she said. The family had also enjoyed a trip to the snow and their first interstate holiday to the Gold Coast. She said her eldest sister had been robbed

of plans of her father walking her down the aisle at her wedding. Ms Mammone urged those responsible to “please put our sadness to ease” and hand themselves into police. “The least you could do is turn yourselves in for the malicious crime you have committed, my family will never be at peace not knowing how or why this has happened.” Meanwhile, a Victoria Police spokesperson said it was not known at this stage when Mr Mammone’s body was left in the car park and investigators are keen to speak to anyone who noticed any suspicious activity in the area on Thursday night or Friday morning. “They are also asking anyone who may have been driving through the area in the 24 hours prior to the discovery of Michael’s body who may have dash cam footage to come forward.” Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Narre Warren’s Max Pawsey Reserve is set to benefit from a new irrigated water system as part of the first stage of a major watersaving project in the region. Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan made the announcement on Friday 26 June, which will see 50 million litres of treated stormwater each year to irrigate the reserve. It’s part of a $1.7 million towards the first stage alternative water network works for the Fountain Gate - Narre Warren Metropolitan Activity Centre. Once finalised the network will deliver up to 225 million litres of stormwater to Narre Warren securing further amenity and drinking water saving benefits. The project will be delivered in partnership with the City of Casey, South East Water, Melbourne Water and Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation. The funding is part of a $48.4 million investment in shovel-ready water projects under the Government’s new $2.7 billion Building Works program - to get thousands of people back to work across the state as Victoria continues to recover from the coronavirus pandemic. The funding will modernise irrigation, secure water supplies through recycling and stormwater use, assist with bushfire recovery and benefit the environment. This includes $10.7 million to be invested in integrated water management projects helping communities secure water supplies in the face of changing climate and population growth by better using storm and recycled water. Mr Donnellan said businesses would also benefit from the creation of jobs and opportunities.

Furry friend out on a limb By Brendan Rees A mischievous koala has made a quick getaway from police which led to a five-hour rescue mission. In the early hours of Saturday 27 June, a koala was caught on security cameras scooting along the footpath outside Cranbourne Police station. By the time police went to check on the furry critter he had ran up a nearby tree, about 10 metres high on Sladen Street. Police then called a wildlife rescuer from Berwick who thought the job initially sounded “pretty simple and easy”. “By the time I got there he was in a big tree,” Sarah Cooke of Wish Wildlife Incident Safe Haven said. Ms Cooke said she and her partner initially attached a net to a pole in an attempt to shuffle him down. “We got him all the way down,” she said until he “dropped over to the next tree onto the fork”. Unhappy, the marsupial jumped higher into a 25 metre tree - which was simply out of reach for the rescuers. “From 2.30am to about 4.30am we were calling everyone we could possibly think of to try and get a cherry picker out,” Ms Cooke said. “We couldn’t get any further with a ladder and I tried SES and CFA.” Ms Cooke eventually contacted Peter Jackson, owner of Genie Scissor Lift Hire, who drove from Clayton to help. “We finally got him unconnected from the tree which is really hard to do when you’re up 15 feet,” she said. Mr Jackson controlled the lift from the ground while Ms Cooke and her partner safely placed the koala into a crate they had fitted to the side of the cherry-picker. “They can grip like no tomorrow,” Ms

Virtual production keeps youth theatre going By Danielle Kutchel Not all theatre has stopped during Covid. With in-person productions off-limits due to restrictions, Masquerade Youth Productions (MYP) in Berwick has found another outlet for their keen young stars, with a virtual production set to premiere over the weekend. ‘The Big One Oh - Online Edition’ will be showing on screens on Saturday 4 July at 5pm. The musical, about a young boy and his ‘monster’ birthday party, features 16 performers tackling the new format. The talented young cast and crew, including 11-year-old Dandenong resident Kershawn, has worked hard behind the scenes to pull it off. Kershawn is no stranger to the professional stage and screen, but his acting career has been halted like many other artists due to Covid-19. He began dancing at the age of two before becoming interested in singing and musical theatre, and now, it’s become his life. A recently signed contract with an ABC/ BBC television series has been cancelled due to Covid, but Kershawn jumped at the chance to perform in MYP’s online musical, just realised from Broadway, from the writer of Footloose Dean Pitchford. Kershawn plays ‘dorky kid’ Darryl Egbert in The Big One Oh - his fourth MYP show and says the role is a lot of fun, even though performing in an online musical was a challenge to start with. “Once the director went through it with

ATM ramraid Two bungling intruders have used a car to ram a brand new supermarket after trying to steal an ATM in Cranbourne West early on Saturday 27 June. Police are hunting the pair who allegedly used a silver ute to force entry to the Woolworths supermarket - which opened just over two weeks ago - at the intersection of Hall Road and Evans Road about 3am. “It is believed the men used the ute and a maroon Ford Fairmont sedan to pull an ATM out from a wall,” a Victoria Police spokeswoman said. “The men deserted the ATM after several attempts to lift it and fled in both cars, with the ute driving at police on the wrong side of Evans Road as it drove away,” the spokesperson said. Police later found the Fairmont dumped on Scarborough Circuit after it had been stolen in

Lynbrook hours before the incident. Police arrived at the supermarket to find glass and a piece of the ATM including the keypad strewn across the entrance of the store. They also cordoned the area off with tape and searched the area for clues. The ATM was found dumped in the middle of the car park. The store’s manager Sam Beaver said the intruders had damaged the front foyer entrance and had luckily not targeted the store. “A big relief after the 3am phone call,” he said. No arrests have been made in relation to the incident. Anyone who witnessed the incident or has further information or dash cam footage is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000. Woolworths has been contacted for comment.

us it became easier to be our character, but through the screen,” he explains. “It’s really different because you cant really interact with the audience. “You can’t really interact with your fellow castmates eitherc, you sort of look at the screen to see what theyre doing and it’s weird because you can’t get their energy.” Nevertheless, Kershawn is excited about the premiere of the new musical and what the future has in store - and he can’t wait to be back on the stage for real. “It’s good to be on stage because you get to act to the audience, you feel them wanting to see what’s happening. You can feel your cast members around you getting hyped and you do the same thing.” Tickets and more information for The Big One Oh!

Uni reforms Federation University has welcomed the Federal Government’s higher education reform package, which has a strong focus on regional and remote students. Federation University vice-chancellor and president Professor Helen Bartlett congratulated Education Minister Dan Tehan on the reform package and said it actions a number of the recommendations identified in the National Regional, Rural and Remote Tertiary Education Strategy (2019). The new package aims to grow university places in regional Australia by 3.5 percent a year and will support regional, remote and Indigenous students to undertake high-level tertiary studies. It includes lower student fees for subjects like nursing, psychology, teaching, engineering and science. Professor Bartlett commended the additional $400 million over four years for regional students, universities and communities, and said the support was timely as regional and rural campuses offered Federation’s students a safe and affordable environment for gaining a high-quality education and accessing wellpaid jobs. The University also welcomed the package’s focus on boosting regional research opportunities through a collaborative grants program that will fund regional universities to partner with industry and other universities. The Education Minister also announced that a new national regional, rural and remote Education Commissioner would be established to champion higher education and oversee the implementation and monitoring of the govern-

A south east multicultural group has received a $59,860 funding boost to help migrants participate in a more inclusive and vibrant community. The Indonesian Muslim Community of Victoria’s Youth Leadership Development Program 2020 received the latest round of the Federal Government’s Fostering Integration Grants. The funding supports grassroots organisations that are helping migrant communities to be more resilient in times of crisis, encourage community participation and break down cultural and language barriers. Acting Federal Minister for Immigration, Citizenship, Migrant Services and Multicultural Affairs, Alan Tudge, said now more than ever was a time to support initiatives that unite Australians. “As we have seen during the bushfires and now the Covid-19 pandemic, being part of a strong, welcoming community is so important for all of us, particularly migrants,” Mr Tudge said. “We want all Australians to be able to participate in our society, know their com-

munity and work together to make our nation stronger.” Senator for Victoria, David Van said, “Programs such as the Indonesian Muslim Community of Victoria’s Youth Leadership Development Program foster greater community awareness and celebrate Australia’s multiculturalism.” “All Australians, whether they are newly arrived or have been here since time immemorial, have a role in creating an inclusive and vibrant Australia. As Australians, we face our challenges together and only together do we get through them,” Senator Van said. The Fostering Integration Grants funding is being directed to projects that can comply with, or can be adapted to comply with Covid-19 social restrictions. The program builds on the Government’s $71 million package of social cohesion initiatives. It also adds to the Government’s support for multicultural communities during the pandemic, with key advice being translated into 63 languages and ongoing engagement through virtual roundtables and briefings.

Students, communities and providers should benefit from the new reform package. Regional, rural and remote students, communities and tertiary education providers will also benefit from this decision.”

BUSINESS PROFILE

The coffee kept up By Tania Phillips Staff at Gloria Jeans Coffee Berwick have worked hard to keep the good coffee flowing during the Covid lock down but have been pleased with the support for their Berwick High Street coffee shop. George Weii, who has been running the business for the past four years, said there were necessary changes during that time but people were understanding.

“Unfortunately, I had to reduce the trading hours to 7:30am – 2pm during the lock down (normal trading hours is 6:30am - 5:30pm), and now we are operating from 7:30am – 3.30pm,” he explained. At the height of lock down of course there were lots of extra rules to follow including changing to takeaway only. “Yes, during the lock down we were only able to offer takeaway service,” George said. “In addition to our standard practices we’ve

increased cleaning schedules. We also have encouraged customers to use contactless payments.” And although things have lessened as time has gone by, George said they have continued to make sure the shop is safe for their loyal and very supportive customers. “We are not fully back to normal yet by following Victoria’s restriction guideline,” he said. “During the lock down I really appreciated all the support from our local community, we

will continue to provide the best coffee and service to our customers.” Find Gloria Jeans Coffee Berwick at 69 High Street – drop in for a coffee and say hello to George and his friendly staff.

Family pulls out all stops By Narelle Coulter Surviving the Covid-19 economic crisis has been a family effort for the owners of Narre Warren’s popular Pind Baluchi Indian restaurant. Owners Pardaman and Simran Singh opened their restaurant in Rebound Court 10 years ago, building a loyal clientele. It was that loyalty that sustained the businesses when the government suddenly banned all in-house dining in March. The Singhs already had a well established take-away business, which they were able to step up to cope with increased demand from customers following stay at home orders. The couple’s two children, aged 14 and 18, also quickly stepped in to help their parents, working in the restaurant once their remote learning tasks were done each day. The younger Singhs packed orders, answered the phones and supported their parents however they could. “When restrictions started they said to us ‘Don’t worry, we will come and help you’. It was really nice,” said Pardaman. The family was helped by two permanent staff whom they were able to retain. “We are doing well surviving as a family business,” said Pardaman. “We had always been busy with pick-ups and deliveries. When we opened 10 years ago we were one of the first restaurants doing deliveries to Berwick, Clyde and Cranbourne. “We had a lot of good customers who used to dine in but chose instead on deliveries and

pick up. We’ve had good support from the community during Covid-19.” Pind Baluchi was also well established on platforms like Uber, Menulog and Door Dash, which made it easier to meet the increased demand for take away. As well as takeaway, Pind Baluchi is now catering for a maximum of 20 in-house diners. Before Covid, the restaurant could seat up to 60 and was a popular venue for celebrations within the growing Casey Indian community. Tables have been rearranged for social distancing, each diner’s contact details are recorded and hand sanitiser is available. Pardaman trained as a chef in India before working in 5 star hotels in his birth country as well as in Kenya. He migrated to Australia in

He said he still loves cooking and the family is happy living and working in Narre Warren. “I love my cooking. This profession has given me a lot.” When he’s not working in the Pind Baluchi

kitchen Pardaman’s favourite dish to make at home is vegetable noodles. “My wife doesn’t let me cook at home very often because I make too much mess,” he said, laughing. To make a booking or order take away phone Pind Baluchi on 9704 7684.

The Pareto Principle

Sikh volunteers deliver free meals to those in hotel quarantine.

Vilfredo Fritz Pareto (15 July 1848 – 19 August 1923) was an Italian economist, political scientist, and philosopher who wrote many articles on economics utilising mathematical tools. In 1906 he was commissioned by the Italian government to look into the distribution of wealth in Italy where he found that 20% of the population owned 80% of the property. On further investigation he found that the same proportion existed in other countries as well and, being a keen gardener, also noticed that he got around 80% of his peas from 20% of the pods. This led him to thinking that perhaps things are not uniformly distributed in nature and in fact, the more he looked, the more he found this to be the case and hence the “80/20 Principle” or the “Pareto Principle” in which 80% of the results come from 20% of the causes was born. This turns out to be remarkably applicable to a whole variety of areas in life, for example: You will typically wear 20% of the clothes in your wardrobe 80% of the time 80% of pollution comes from 20% of the factories 80% of a teacher’s problems will arise from 20% of the class 80% of customer issues will come from 20% of your customers and similarly 80% of a business’ revenue will come from 20% of its clients Another way to restate this is as the “diminishing law of returns”, i.e. once you have achieved 80% of the result with 20% of the effort, then if you want to achieve the remaining 20%, you now have to expend the remaining 80% of effort. In other words, every incremental additional amount of effort is going to give you less and less back! This is important for business efficiency

Sikh skills By Brendan Rees Kind-hearted volunteers of the Sikh community have sprung into action yet again - this time delivering free meals to those in hotel quarantine. In their latest act of generosity, The Sikh Volunteers Australia - a not-for-profit organisation based in Devon Meadows - delivered 250 free meals to returning travellers at the Mercure Hotel in Melbourne on Sunday 28 June. The volunteers have become renowned as unsung heroes since lockdown began by delivering 72,000 free home cooked meals to people every day since 18 March. This is on top of their regular free food van service which sets up twice a week at car parks in Frankston and Tooradin feeding the needy. Vice-president of the Sikh Volunteers Australia Manpreet Singh said their latest call for help came from a group of returning travellers undertaking 14 days of self isolation at the Mercure Hotel as part of a government ef-

fort to contain coronavirus. He said the guests consisting of people from the Indian community said they were not used to eating non-Indian food “continuously” while in quarantine. Mr Singh said after receiving approval from the Department of Human and Human Services the volunteers delivered the first batch of Punjabi vegetarian meals to the hotel reception. “We were receiving these calls for the last three months but we could not get the permission,” Mr Singh said. “This time they all got together and asked a request to the hotel,” he said. He added they were delivering meals to the Mercure Hotel at this stage while offering free food with home delivery services to those in need. “It’s hard work but still we have to do it,” he said. The volunteers have been working around the clock taking orders and working alongside three professional chefs.

TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS IAN ASH since identifying that 20% which is going to give you an 80% return on your efforts is clearly worth doing. For example, ensuring that the 20% of customers who provide 80% of your income are looked after has got to be worth the time and effort. Equally, if it is indeed true that 80% of your issues stem from 20% of your customers, what would happen if you decided you no longer wanted to support the 20% of clients that are causing you the most pain? How much easier/more efficient would your business be? When you actually look at the time that such customers can cause you to expend and put an hourly rate on this, it may simply not be worth it. One important thing to note here is that I am not suggesting a “near enough is good enough approach” is always warranted, especially when it comes to essential products (for example, having 20% of aircraft components working effectively 80% of the time would have disastrous consequences!), but in business it is often impractical to seek a 100% result. The 80/20 Principle is a very valuable concept to bear in mind when running a business and can be especially valuable if cost savings need to be made. - Ian Ash is the managing director of OrgMent Business Solutions

Safety first South East Orthodontics is open for all orthodontic treatments and the team is also welcoming new patients at the clinic. “It is important to see us if you are in treatment at the practice and it is also important for us to see you for an initial appointment if you or your dentist has concerns about the position of your teeth, bite and jaws, “ said practice manager Bree Airdrie. The South East Orthodontics team has implemented additional measures to ensure patient safety. “We ask that when patients arrive, they call the clinic to see if we are ready to see them and we also ask that where possible the patient comes in by themselves and brings along their own sunglasses if possible,” said Bree.

The practice has installed countertop protection screens at reception and patients are advised to use the hand sanitiser provided and reception staff will take their temperature. “We have always had a very high standard of infection control at the practice, but we have also added additional cleaning processes before and after your treatment,” explained Bree. Please call the friendly reception team on 9796 2794 to discuss treatments and book an appointment. Alternatively, you can visit the website www.seortho.com.au for further information. The whole team at South East Orthodontics wish everyone the very best at this extremely trying time and hope to see you at the practice soon.

FOCUS ON … TAX TIME

Work claims explained The Australian Taxation Office has issued a reminder to taxpayers about the rules regarding work expenses like protective clothing, uniforms and travel. A deduction some people might be claiming due to Covid-19 is expenses for protective items required for work. “Taxpayers working in jobs that require physical contact or close proximity with customers or clients during Covid-19 measures may be able to claim a deduction for items such as gloves, face masks, sanitiser or antibacterial spray if they have paid for the items and not been reimbursed. This includes industries like healthcare, retail and hospitality” said ATO assistant commissioner Karen Foat said.

You still cannot claim travelling from home to work. “Generally, most people cannot claim the cost of travelling to and from work and working from home as a result of Covid-19 does not change this. For example, if you are working from home because of Covid-19 but need to go to your regular office one day per week, your home to work travel is still private travel and cannot be claimed,” Ms Foat said. Reduce claims that aren’t relevant for part of the year “With more people working from home, working reduced hours or unfortunately not working at all, we expect to see claims for laundry expenses or travel expenses decline this

year,” Ms Foat said. “If you aren’t travelling for work, you can’t claim travel expenses. If you aren’t wearing your work uniform, you can’t claim laundry expenses. It’s still important to meet the three golden rules: you must have spent the money and not have been reimbursed, it must relate directly to earning your income, and you must have a record to prove it. “What you can claim really depends on your circumstances. Whilst we are trying to make it easier for people to claim what they are entitled to; we are also asking people to take a bit of extra care if their circumstances have changed this year.” Ms Foat said.

Common tax time mistakes include people claiming ineligible clothing, claiming for something without having spent the money and not being able to explain the basis for how the claim was calculated.

ATO income advice for those on Jobkeeper able income for the business. If you have received JobSeeker, the ATO will also load this information into your tax return at the Government Payments and Allowances question once it’s ready. If you are lodging before this information is included for you, you will need to make sure you include it. Leaving out income can slow your return down or result in a bill later so it’s definitely best avoided. Stand down payments Some employees may have received a one-off or regular payment after being temporarily stood down due to Covid-19. These payments are also taxable and appear in their income statement and in their return. If people aren’t sure whether these amounts have been included in their income statement, they should check with their employer.

Other income types Similarly, taxpayers need to include income such as income protection, sickness or accident insurance payments, redundancy payments and accrued leave payments in their tax return. The tax return instructions explain how to include these amounts. Early access to superannuation “If you received early access to your super this year under the special arrangements due to Covid-19, any amounts you’ve withdrawn from super under this program are tax-free and you do not need to declare them in your tax return,” Ms Foat said. Example 1 – Barista receiving JobKeeper Ethan is an employee who works as a barista. After being financially impacted by COVID-19, the cafe Ethan works for enrolled to receive

12387577-CG20-18

Taxpayers who have received JobKeeper payments from their employer, don’t need to do anything different. The payments will be included as salary and wages and/or allowances, in their regular income statement, which their employer provides directly to the ATO. “Your income statement can be accessed via myGov and the information is automatically included into your tax return by the end of July. If you use a tax agent, they also have access to this information. The figures in your income statement should already include any JobKeeper you have received. If you aren’t sure, check with your employer,” advised ATO Assistant commissioner Karen Foat. Sole traders who have received the JobKeeper payment on behalf of their business will need to include the payments as assess-

BETTER BUSINESS. BETTER LIFE. 03 9709 2600 | 9 28-32 Gloucester Avenue Berwick 12450855-FA24-20

JobKeeper payments on his behalf. The cafe continues operating as takeaway only and Ethan is given some hand sanitiser for use during his shifts. He also purchases a face mask, which he is not reimbursed for. When he completes his tax return, he claims the cost of the face mask, ensuring he keeps his receipt as proof of his purchase. He also checks that his salary and wages and allowances on his income statement are up to date, including JobKeeper payments made to him by the cafe. Ethan needs to confirm that his total salary and wages and any allowances are included in his tax return. Generally, this will be included in his return by the ATO by the end of July and will include JobKeeper payments. Example 2 – IT contractor working from home Natalie is employed by a company that provides IT support. From time to time Natalie must drive her car from the office to the client’s premises and assist them on site. Due to COVID-19, Natalie started working from home on 23 March and was only able to provide phone support to clients. Natalie purchased a new headset and stationery, as well as incurring additional phone and internet costs while working from home. Natalie decides to claim all her working from home expenses using the new temporary rate of 80 cents per hour. She uses her time sheets to calculate the hours she worked from home between 23 March and 30 June. When she completes her tax return, Natalie makes sure she only claims a deduction for the car expenses she incurred when travelling from the office to the client’s premises. As Natalie worked solely from home for approximately three months of the year, mostly supporting clients over the phone, her claim for car expenses this year is less than her claim for last year.

NEWS

Bishop of Sale is named Diocesan Administrator Father Peter Slater has happily welcomed the appointment Monsignor Greg Bennet, a priest of the Archdiocese of Melbourne, as the 10th Bishop of Sale by Pope Francis. Fr Peter noted the announcement also comes on the Feast Day of the Patroness of the Diocese, Our Lady of Perpetual Help, 27 June. “I welcome the announcement of Monsignor Greg Bennet as next Bishop of Sale,” Fr Slater said. “I am sure the people, religious, priests and agencies of the Diocese will be glad to make him welcome when he comes among us.” Bishop-Elect Bennet said he was ‘humbled’ by Pope Francis’ nomination to be the next Bishop of Sale. “It is an enormous responsibility and privilege to be asked to undertake this appointment. It is a responsibility which cannot be exercised in isolation, but in close cooperation with the clergy, the faithful and those in Diocesan leadership,” he said. Bishop-Elect Bennet said he looks forward to being among the people of Sale, working with the clergy and the faithful. “I know that I come to Sale as a stranger, but I pray that we shall grow together as brothers and sisters in the Lord. “I pray the Patroness of the Diocese, Our Lady of Perpetual Help will guide us as we build on the rich legacy of the Catholic faith in Sale and as we work together for the Reign of God. “The warmth of welcome has already been extended and such kindness is a reflection of the living Word of God. I know of the majestic beauty of the Diocese, and am mindful of the tragedy of the fires of last summer and the enduring suffering of many. “The Diocese has clearly responded with great care, compassion and charity to those who have lived through such a traumatic ex-

perience and now begin to reorient their lives: These efforts will have my full support,” he said. Bishop-Elect Bennet is currently the parish priest of St Joseph’s, West Brunswick. He has held several leadership positions within the Archdiocese of Melbourne, including as director of Ministry to Priests and later as inaugural director of the Office for Evangelisation. After additional parish ministry, he served as vicar general from 2012 to 2019. Bishop-Elect Bennet was born in April

1963, the second of four children to Len (RIP) and Maureen Bennet. He was raised in Melbourne, completing his secondary education at Braemar College in Woodend, northwest of Melbourne. After working in banking for several years, he entered Corpus Christi College in 1986 and was ordained priest in 1992. Following a number of parish appointments, Bishop-Elect Bennet undertook postgraduate study, gaining a master of science in pastoral counselling from Loyola College in

Baltimore and a licentiate in sacred theology from the Angelicum University in Rome. Bishop-Elect Bennet’s appointment follows the recent departure from Sale of Bishop Patrick O’Regan who was installed as Archbishop of Adelaide last month. “Following Archbishop Patrick O’Regan is an honour. He is a gifted pastor who embraced the Diocese of Sale with respect, openness and committed leadership,” he said. Bishop-Elect Bennet particularly acknowledged Archbishop Patrick O’Regan personal engagement in Plenary Council process and his leadership in education having implemented a new governance model for Catholic Education in the Diocese. Bishop-Elect Bennet thanked Father Peter Slater who has again served as Diocesan Administrator, “his excellent priestly leadership has been pivotal in this period of transition, especially in light of the challenges of this Covid-19 time.” Expressing his sadness in leaving his parish and the Archdiocese of Melbourne acknowledging the support he has received during his 28 years of service Bishop-Elect Bennet said he was grateful for the many people who have formed, nurtured, cared, and supported him throughout his formation and ministry. In preparing to take on the new ministry Bishop-Elect Bennet said he promised to commit himself to Sale and to make his home amongst God’s people. “There is such diversity in Sale with the vast growth corridor to the West and vibrant local parish communities reaching from the coast to the High Country - I am excited by the pastoral opportunities which exist and which are yet to be imagined. “While there is trepidation on my behalf, I know the God of Promise will accompany all of us on the journey ahead. I ask you to pray for me, as I will for you,” he concluded.

New wetland trail planned By Mitchell Clarke

The $48.4 million put aside for the water projects is part of the State Government’s $2.7 billion Building Works package, which aims to get thousands back to work amid the Covid-19 pandemic. Water Minister Lisa Neville said economic growth in the Western Port catchment was dependent on the availability of fit-for-purpose water. “We’re creating jobs across Victoria with funding for projects in metropolitan Melbourne and in regional Victoria,” she said.

A wetland trail will be constructed at Pakenham’s Deep Creek Reserve, as part of $320,000 in funding towards local water projects. Bass MP Jordan Crugnale announced $200,000 of the sum would be put towards the Pakenham project, as part of a greater $48.4 million investment in shovel-ready water projects. “The Wetlands Wonder Discovery Trail at Pakenham will be a great addition to the 48-hectare environmental and recreational area,” Ms Crugnale said. The proposed wetland trail is set to include three boardwalks - each with viewing platforms - along three creeks that converge at the site. Educational signage will explain the important role that wetlands play in treating stormwater runoff into Western Port Bay, as well as the importance of general land and water management. The boardwalk - which is set to be constructed using recycled composite deck material - will complement an educational facility at the reserve, which also includes six hectares of wetlands. The State Government believe the project will “fill a gap” in Melbourne’s south east by providing an educational centre for schools and the wider community to obtain an improved understanding of the diverse function of a regional wetland system and its overall role in the water cycle. The project will be delivered in partnership with Cardinia Shire Council, South East Water, Melbourne Water and the Bunurong Land Council Aboriginal Corporation. Meanwhile, Ms Crugnale also announced $120,000 will be used to test the suitability of aquifers to improve stormwater and groundwater management, as well as capturing and

Crucial return to play info By sports editor Russell Bennett The path forward for competitive senior and junior football and netball in 2020 has become that little bit clearer with the release of key documents from AFL Victoria and Netball Victoria late last week. AFL Victoria released its long-anticipated Return to Play protocols, while Netball Victoria also released its Return to Community Netball Guidelines. Clearly though, decisions on whether or not specific competitions will actually return to play this year have been made on a much more local level. AFL Victoria’s Return to Play Protocols state, in part, that: “Returning to play in a safe, hygienic and controlled manner is paramount to the AFL. “The safety and wellbeing of our participants is our number one priority. Following the Victorian State Government advice around the return of community sport, AFL Victoria endorses a return to club sanctioned training and matches, provided participants follow the relevant Victorian State Government guidelines and AFL Victoria’s Covid-19 guidelines are implemented. “In advance of returning to training and competitions, we encourage leagues, clubs and volunteers to digest the protocols, formulate an education and implementation plan for their club following which they would go through an education period and prepare their club to return to play safely. “We will continue to work with the State Government to ensure alignment with their advice, with hygiene and safety protocols firmly in place. Our primary focus is preparing to return to play in a safe environment in a wellprepared and educated manner. In order for the return to play to be successful, and in line with Government advice, it is essential that clubs and individuals work within the timelines and protocols and do not move ahead of the level and restrictions in place.” Arguably the biggest factor when it comes to a return to play - particularly when it comes to senior football and netball - has been the public gathering restrictions. Those restrictions essentially dictate how many people can pay to enter grounds, and therefore the money clubs can make from gate, canteen, and bar takings. There’s no mention of specific crowd limits in AFL Victoria’s Return to Play Protocols, but under the section ‘Spectators’ it states: Any attendance at community football matches by spectators will always be strictly compliant with government directions and restrictions. Spectators for training and competitions must abide by public gathering restrictions. Spectators should be in groups of no more than 10 people in open, outdoor venues and spread out around the ground or venue. Spectators must keep 1.5 meters apart.

· ·

Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS

Crucial updates for 2020 have been released from AFL Victoria and Netball Victoria. 179445 limits will not apply to partici· Gathering pants and those reasonably necessary to conduct the training or competition (e.g. umpires, coaches). Where venues allow for vehicle access surrounding the oval, spectators are encouraged to remain in their vehicle (subject to Government advice regarding risk for spectators viewing from vehicles, e.g. cohabiting family/household members only). It is the participating Clubs’ responsibility to monitor crowd social distancing and if required they can liaise with Police to enforce social distancing protocols. From Monday last week, full-contact training and full-contact competitions were able to resume for those 18-years-of-age or under, without a limit on the number of participants - though gathering rules apply for spectators. For people 18-years-of-age and under, groups of 20 are no longer relevant - the Return to Play Protocols state - and full squads can train together. Clubrooms at community football venues

can have up to 20 people per indoor space, as long as the four square-metre rule is met. Signage must be displayed at the entry to each indoor space outlining the maximum number of people allowed at a single time. Spectators for training and competitions must abide by public gathering restrictions for example, spectators should be in groups of no more than 10 people in open, outdoor venues and spread out around the ground or venue. They also must keep one-and-a-half meters apart. Crucially - subject to the advice of Victoria’s Chief Health Officer and the continued management of the spread of coronavirus - adults can resume full-contact training from 13 July, and full-contact competition from 20 July. Some competitions, therefore, would be racing against the clock to be able to hold a senior season that begins from 20 July. Netball Victoria’s latest update - from 22 June - reads, in part: Indoor venues could open for the purpose of sport and recreation;

· People 18 years and under were able to re-

sume full contact training and competition, at both indoor and outdoor venues; Adults could participate in non-contact training in groups of up to 20 - plus a coach at both indoor and outdoor venues. “Adults will have to wait a little longer to return to competition. We expect further clarification on this in July. “Netball Victoria affiliates and clubs are required to adhere to the Return to Community Netball guidelines. Naturally, we will continue to prioritise the health and wellbeing of both the individuals involved our sport, as well as the wider community as we work toward a safe return to training and competition in this new Covid-19 environment.” For more on the Return to Community Netball - for clubs and associations - visit: https:// vic.netball.com.au/latest-update For more on AFL Victoria’s much-awaited Return to Play protocols, visit: https://aflvic. com.au/return-to-play

New Covid-19 player transfer permit introduced movement of players - on loan - in situations where their leagues or clubs aren’t otherwise participating in 2020. According to official AFL documents seen by the Star News, “Where a player’s club or league either does not submit any teams or does not otherwise participate in the 2020 community football season, that player will

be eligible to apply for a Covid-19 Type 2 Permit no later than 31 July 2020. In such circumstances, the Covid-19 Type 2 Permit will allow the player to move to another club for the duration of the 2020 community football season, and that player will then revert back to their original club on 1 November 2020”. It’s understood transfers are no longer al-

lowed into, or out of Victoria (after 30 June). The player transfer window for players to move permanently to another club usually closes on 30 June. This year, that’s been extended to 31 July in the ACT, New South Wales, the Northern Territory, Queensland, and Western Australia. - Russell Bennett

12453794-SN27-20

A new football player transfer permit - specifically related to the Covid-19 pandemic and the effect it’s had on many leagues and clubs - has been introduced Australia-wide, and it’s already become a hot topic of discussion amongst clubs. The ‘Covid-19 Type 2 Permit’ came into effect from Monday last week to allow the

The return to play is near By Nick Creely AFL Outer East will forge forward with its plans to get a 2020 season underway, with the league confirming it will proceed with a Saturday, 1 August start for senior football and netball. After extensive consultation with the senior clubs, there is set to be one senior/reserves football division in 2020, with Premier, Division 1 and Division 2 not going ahead as per usual. AFL Outer East has confirmed - after a club presidents meeting on Saturday in Kilsyth, as well as the club meeting on 23 June - that there are enough confirmed clubs to make up a single division despite a raft of clubs opting out of the season over the weekend over concerns of managing crowds, volunteer strain and community health. In its ’Guiding Principles for a Return to Football And Netball’ document previously sent to clubs, AFL Outer East stated that participation this season is voluntary, and clubs will not be penalised if they opt to sit out the season due to Covid-19, while it will also offer modified participation and club fee structures. The league will announce which clubs will make up the division this Friday, 3 July, with the understanding that there is likely to be a mixture of clubs from across the competition competing this season. The proposed season structure - which was announced back on 5 June - is unlikely to change, with a top-four, even home-and-away games, and a three-week finals series with neutral venues removed, but the league will publicly announce more on this on Friday, including providing fixtures once team submissions are entered. Clubs that have already publicly announced they won’t be fielding senior football teams in 2020 include: Beaconsfield, Doveton, Cranbourne, Kinglake and Gembrook Cockatoo, while the Star News understands other league powerhouses won’t feature at senior level in 2020 and instead focus on junior sport. AFL Outer East’s commercial and operations manager Cam Hutchison praised the clubs for how they’ve handled a difficult situation, and said that they will continue to work with clubs as they continue to launch towards a season start. “It’s been really positive - we had a meeting on Tuesday with our clubs, and we’ve spent the best part of the last four days communicating with the clubs and seeing where they were at, and each club has made a good, informed decision,” he told the Star News. “And they’ve all made an informed decision about whether they think they’ll play or not - (on Saturday) we met with clubs interested in playing, and put a few options up, looked at seniors only with extended squads, looked at under-21s, but the group of clubs we’ve got together are confident they’ve got really good numbers to have seniors and reserves. “All of the clubs have come together with their committee, players, coaches, and worked out what was best for their club which is great - we’ve made the decision to not hold on to the season, but we wanted the clubs to really drive that.

AFL Outer East is targeting a senior football season start on 1 August with one division. 197752 Pictures: ROB CAREW “But we wanted to listen, and we feel we’ve got a good outcome. We’ve done everything in a really united way, no one has broken away it’s been a really positive outcome for our competition.” Netball is also locked in for a season start on 1 August and won’t be impacted by whichever way the senior football season pans out, with the structure for the 2020 campaign set to be confirmed once team submissions are entered to the league. Like senior footy, it is optional for netball teams to take part in the season. In terms of the women’s football and vets’ football competitions, both are locked in for a

return, with the women’s league set to start on 1 August, while the vets’ start date will be confirmed after consultation with clubs. Under-18s football - which will be played under a divisional model - as well as junior football and netball is locked in to begin on the weekend of 25 and 26 July. Hutchison said the position of AFL Outer East hasn’t wavered throughout the entire process. “Outer East’s position the entire time has been that if the guidelines and the protocols from the government provide the opportunity to play, and we have a strong willingness

to play, we’ll continue to work towards playing until it isn’t possible anymore,” he said. “As a region we have been proactive, constructive and positive and it is terrific that all clubs have come to considered and informed positions, that is best for them and their community. “(And now) we’re sitting here at the end of June with eight to ten clubs really keen to play, so we’ll work towards that.” AFL Victoria and Netball Victoria crucially released their much-anticipated Return to Play protocols and Return to Community Netball Guidelines throughout the week, which don’t mention any specific crowd limits - seen as the biggest factor when it comes to a season start - with attendance at community football matches “strictly compliant with government directions and restrictions”, while spectators should be in groups of no more than 10 people in open, outdoor venues and must adhere to the 1.5 metre social distancing. With a handful of clubs within AFL Outer East coming under current Covid-19 ‘hotspots’ and a current spike of cases in the state, Hutchison said that the league will continue to work hard with those clubs concerned who are set to compete this season despite the concerns around the impact it could have on game day. “AFL Outer East is working with local councils regarding local Covid-19 ‘hotspots’ and will continue to work diligently with those clubs who are impacted by these developments in their local area,” he said. “Moving forward we will monitor all information from AFL Victoria, Netball Victoria and government agencies and will assess at key junctures as we approach our start dates. “We’ll need some luck obviously over the next two weeks anyway - with this spike, they’re doing a mass testing and we’re confident they’ll rein it back in. “We continue to urge all Outer East participants to practice good hygiene and adhere to all government and AFL Victoria guidelines to help reduce the spread of Covid-19 in our community.”

Toner has the drive to win By Nick Creely Jack Toner was at the beach with his dog when a text message came through that changed the course of his 2020 season. The 19-year-old - who finished runner-up in the Dandenong Stingrays’ best and fairest in 2019, as well as playing a crucial role in Narre Warren’s senior football premiership against Berwick in AFL Outer East - was slated to lineup with Sandringham in the VFL this season after being overlooked in the AFL draft. But instead, the young gun from the southeast will ply his trade interstate in the SANFL with Central District as he looks to build on his football, grow more as a person, and attract the attention of AFL recruiters. He said that the move was very much “out of the blue”, and one he needed to really think about carefully, but was delighted the opportunity has presented itself. “Dad sent me a text which had been forwarded on from his mate, Nick Rutley, who coached the Dandenong Stingrays’ girls last year, and he said basically in short ‘mate, would Jack be interested in playing interstate, I’ve got a few contacts with VFL being unlikely at that stage’,” he told the Star News on the last day of his mandatory 14-day isolation in South Australia. “I sat on it for a week or two, and thought why not? - it’ll be an awesome experience and I had a chat with Jeff (Andrews) at Centrals and he seemed great and really keen and eager to have me, and he has plans for my future so I’ve got all my faith in him at the moment.” Toner has moved over to South Australia by himself but is pleased to have another young player also make the move to the Bulldogs, which will help him transition into his new surroundings. “Another Victorian kid, Cam Wild from the Bushrangers, has come over for the same reasons as me which is great,” he said.

think we’ll get in 14 games over here plus finals which I’m excited about.” While Sandringham was the perfect fit for Toner moving forward, the uncertainty of the season - particularly in Victoria - was the catalyst for the move over to South Australia, and one he views as an essential life experience and one that will hold him in good stead. “I spoke to a few VFL clubs, but I really liked Ben McGlynn and all the coaching staff so they seemed like the best fit,” he said. “And I still do, without a doubt, and I’ve got some really good mates there which I united with from Haileybury. “(But) the Covid thing came about, and the opportunity presented itself to play footy interstate and I thought ‘there’s no better way to make the most of what hasn’t been a great year’, so I decided to go over to the SANFL, which is still a really high standard of footy. “I want to give myself a life experience that I definitely wouldn’t be able to if Covid wasn’t around, so I’ll make the most of it for sure.” While dedicating plenty of time to training, playing and improving as a footballer, Toner is currently doing a Bachelor of Commerce at Deakin University, and will be working remotely from his laptop at his parents’ plumbing business to keep himself occupied in his new surroundings. Toner’s last game of competitive football was in last year’s AFL Outer East Premier Division grand final on AFL Grand Final eve, a match where the youngster showed tremendous poise to help his local club, Narre Warren, to a senior premiership after a stellar season at NAB League level with the Stingrays, where he averaged 20 disposals a match. In that particular grand final, which featured a string of ex-AFL players and VFL-listed players, the youngster almost looked like he was playing with a dry football in what was a rain-soaked match at Pakenham’s Toomuc Reserve. He hopes the burning desire to get back on to the football field, playing for points, and showcasing his wares drives him to great heights this season. “I would love it if my first game this year was the same sort of enjoyment as the grand final, but in the meantime this year I’ve played in an intra-club with St Kilda, filing in with the Sandy boys, and then I played a practice match against Collingwood,” he said. “But I’m very eager to get out there, and especially when football is a big part of your life and they take it away for a few months.

Toner was an absolute ball-magnet for the Dandenong Stingrays in 2019. 192826 Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS “I’m burning to just get out there and play, and even just train.” While the new Bulldog was left disappointed after being overlooked for a spot on an AFL list last year, he said that the self-realisation of what he needs to work on was massive in his mindset for approaching 2020. “I was disappointed with how last year panned out - I felt like I had a really strong year and didn’t quite get the recognition from the AFL clubs,” he said. “But upon reflection, there are things I need to work on, so I’ll be doing my best to make myself a more attractive candidate for clubs in 2021 and beyond. “I’m taking the long course, but I’m willing to do the work and stick to the right path and get good people around me. “I know I’m only 19, so I’ve got time to improve myself over the next couple of years I’ve got some capabilities that I can really add to the club.” While Toner eventually hopes to develop into a strong inside midfielder in the future, he just wants to lock down a role in the back six at SANFL level and become one of the most difficult defenders in the competition to match up on. “I’m not that tall or as athletically gifted as other mids at the moment, with the likes of Dan Menzel and such running around in our midfield, so I’m just going to hone in my craft as being a good small defender and provide some run,” he said. “But I want to add to my game so I can play and lock down on anyone, so I want to add both offensive and defensive play. “I’m really looking forward to the challenge.” berwicknews.starcommunity.com.au
