Call of the wild Two Lara born-and-bred bandicoots have joined a quest to reintroduce their species – extinct in the wild – to Victoria. Serendip Sanctuary ranger Brandon Hallas helped look after the joeys, a male and female, at the wildlife park for several months. “I’m pretty privileged to work at a site like this,” the 26-year-old said. “The female was a lot more jumpy and flighty. The male was a bit more relaxed – every time we caught him he was happy to be taken into the bag and have his health checked.” Only about 1000 eastern barred bandicoots remain in captivity, with none left in the wild, according to Brandon. But last Wednesday he joined rangers from across Victoria releasing 20, including the Lara pair, at the Grampians under the watchful eye of two specially-trained protection dogs. “It’s bitter-sweet. We spent a lot of time raising and caring for those animals,” he said. “But hopefully the next time you see the eastern barred bandicoot, you’ll see it in the wild.”

Holiday bookings boom By Luke Voogt Geelong and Bellarine caravan parks have experienced a surge in bookings ahead of COVID-19 restrictions easing today, following the “worst” lockdown for local tourism yet. “The school holidays are looking good, and now they’ve shut New South Wales, they’re looking even better,” said Lorraine Golightly, owner-operator of BIG4 Beacon Resort. “We’ll be full for the school holidays … This first weekend is normally quiet but that’s booked out too.”

But the boom would “absolutely not” make up for losses the businesses suffered from the “worst” and most recent lockdown, and subsequent restrictions, Ms Golightly said. “We were fully-booked for that weekend and we ended up with one reservation left. “It was an unknown of how long it would be for, so we kept the park fully-operational. I had to have my full reception staff here with people cancelling.” Geelong accommodation providers and restaurant and cafe owners could not continue to bear the brunt of continuous lockdowns after

the ending of JopKeeper, Ms Golightly said. “There’s no government support now – this can’t keep going on.” Barwon River Holiday Park in Belmont suffered similar losses from recent restrictions. “The grants that have been available for us don’t even cover a quarter of our staff wages,” manager Kathryn Garrow said. “But we definitely noticed an increase in phone calls yesterday (Wednesday) following the announcement restrictions would ease further.” Tourism Greater Geelong and The Bellarine

executive director Brett Ince said increases to home visitors today would encourage Melburnians to visit Geelong. The change in restrictions would also allow more and larger group bookings and have positive flow-on effects for Geelong cafes and restaurants, he said. Mr Ince said the Geelong Winter Shiraz Festival, the Bellarine Lighthouse Film Festival and Adventure Park’s new Winter Glow Festival would draw visitors, along with plans for a 85 per cent capacity crowd at Geelong Cats’ next home game at GMHBA Stadium.

Vision ‘fail’ on trucks and buses By Luke Voogt A 30-year vision for central Geelong fails to adequately address problems with truck traffic and bus routes in the CBD, according to council officers. A City Hall assessment of state government’s draft Central Geelong Framework Plan found “significant gaps”, council heard in Tuesday night’s meeting. Councillor Kylie Grzybek highlighted “some concerns from our perspective” on the draft, developed by the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. “One is the failure to address longstanding issues with the Moorabool Street bus

- Bruce Harwood interchange and the lack of information or alternate routes as part of a relocation, which limits other alternative transport options more broadly,” she said. Cr Gryzbek also took aim at a proposed freight route along McKillop Street to get trucks out of central Geelong. “That’s not our long-term solution,” she said. The framework had no reference to Major

Road Projects Victoria’s planned Bellarine Link to extend the Geelong Ring Road from Baanip Boulevard to Portarlington Road, Cr Gryzbek added. She also highlighted several other issues in the draft vision. “There is a failure to provide a rail link to Avalon [Airport] and a lack of strategies and actions for the Geelong railway station, for rail in particular.” Cr Bruce Harwood stressed the importance of getting the framework right. “If ever there was a document coming for community consultation or input, this is it,” he said. “The CBD has been a huge topic of debate for

Helping others through gaming Avid Leopold gamer Jake Anderson is harnessing the power of video games to get locals with disabilities to open up through a unique program. The self-described “social outcast” joined genU GAMER as a participant himself a few years ago, after his mum found a brochure for the program. “I fell in love with it. It was pretty cool – just playing games,” the 22-year-old said. “Outside I look normal but inside I struggle with a lot of stuff like reading and writing – it’s just hard to do.” He soon discovered a knack for helping others in the program open up, and now he volunteers there five days a week. Jake remembers helping one participant who got angry and began “throwing stuff around” despite the efforts of social workers. “I think he was a bit startled,” he said. “He was talking about his home life and some edgy stuff.” But Jake knew the participant loved anime, so he put on a favourite series to help him calm down. Other times, Jake simply enjoys talking with participants and helping them socialise, or overcome a tricky quest on the Xbox or PlayStation. “They need a role model in their life or someone to talk to, so it feels good to be that,” he said. Last year Jake won the Geelong Awards for People with a Disability’s volunteering category for his compassion and unique way of supporting others. With nominations for the awards now open, Jake encouraged locals to put forward someone they think worthy of recognition. “It felt good to be recognised,” he said. Nominations close at 5pm on October 8. Details: www.geelongaustralia.com.au/ disabilityawards. Luke Voogt

some time for a whole bunch of reasons – some that you’ve heard this evening.” “But this particular plan that’s been put forward … has a number of flaws in it that will have serious effects and will resonate with us for many, many years, if we don’t get in and argue [for] what we really want to see in the CBD and the surrounding areas.” In closing Cr Gryzbek highlighted a lack of communication between state authorities working on various projects in Geelong and urged them to improve this to create more holistic plan. Councillors voted unanimously in favour of supporting the City Hall report and submission to state government on the framework.

State levies push tip fees up Geelong building waste fees will rise by 56 per cent in 2020-21 as a result of increases to state government levies. The impending jump in ‘clean fill’ waste fees results from a $40 per tonne increase in state government’s Environment Protection Authority levy. Waste disposal service fees, including gate fees at council tips, will rise between 27 and 35 per cent, as a result of state government’s landfill levy jumping from $65.90 per tonne to $105.90 in 2021-22. The government deferred an initial increase to $85.50 per tonne last year because of the financial impact of COVID-19 on communities and local government. The levy increases aim to encourage Victorians to recycle and reuse more in a bid to reduce waste going to landfill. Geelong council has plans to divert 80 per cent of waste from landfill by 2030, with an interim target of 72 per cent by 2025. Greater Geelong residents sent about 52,000 tonnes of waste to landfill in 2019-20. Council’s new hard rubbish service collected 2484 tonnes of waste, of which more than a quarter was diverted from landfill and recycled, in its first year in 2019-20, according to City Hall.

Coast leads in life-saving testing By Luke Voogt Bellarine Peninsula and Surf Coast residents lead the state in life-saving bowel cancer screening, according to Cancer Council Victoria data released this week. The coastal regions, both with relatively high aged populations, together recorded a 55.1 per cent participation rate among eligible residents in 2018-19. The result was an increase on 51.4 per cent during 2016-17 and moved the region from second Victoria-wide to top of the state. Geelong residents lagged behind their

coastal counterparts in 26th place with 48.3 per cent participation. But the result, up from 44.8 per cent in 2016-17, meant Geelong was the ninth most-improved area in the state. “Geelong residents who have completed their bowel screening test deserve a pat on the back,” Cancer Council Victoria chief executive Todd Harper said. “We would encourage everyone to talk to their friends and family who are aged 50 to 74 and ask them if they’ve done their test – talking about poo isn’t taboo when it could save your life.”

The test, sent for free annually to eligible Australians aged 50 to 74, involves scraping a small sample of faecal matter for testing. “Bowel cancer is Australia’s second biggest cancer killer, claiming the lives of around 100 Australians each week,” Mr Harper said. “Thankfully [the screening test] can detect these cancers early, often before symptoms arise.” About four in 10 eligible Australians completed the test in 2018-19, according to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare. That equated to an increase of 93,000 extra

tests compared to 2016-17, Mr Harper said. “The extra 93,000 tests completed nationally equates to 860 cancers being prevented and 470 lives saved over the next 50 years.” But Mr Harper said increasing that to every six in 10 could save an extra 84,000 lives over the next 20 years. “If you have the screening test at home and you’re yet to complete it, please do the test now,” he said. The release of the data coincides with new federal government funding for a campaign to get more people participating in bowel screening.

A sporting chance for all sport should be for all Australians. “Sport is engrained in Australian culture, participating in sport should not be a privilege only for some depending on ability, it should be every Australian’s right. “This is why Sport4All is so exciting, it will change the way disability and inclusion are viewed in mainstream sport and will result in people with disability like myself, as someone who is blind, being able to participate in sport when, where and how we choose.” To support the pilot Geelong council plans to recruit a ‘local hero’ disability inclusion program co-ordinator. “Geelong is the home of the NDIS and the council has a strategic intent to be the most inclusive community in Australia,” councillor Anthony Aitken said. “This is another major step to supporting that aim.” Details: sport4all.com.au

Geelong has signed up for a pilot program aimed at helping sports clubs and schools become more accessible and inclusive to people with disabilities. “Inclusive sport matters because it should not be a roadblock if you are disabled,” inclusion advocate Noah Callan said. “The disability community wants the adrenaline rush when playing a sport, just like everyone else. “The best way for sports to be more inclusive is thinking a bit differently, like having more time for a free kick.” Mr Callan is an associate of Get Skilled Access, a business enterprise founded by Paralympic gold medallist and Grand Slam champion Dylan Alcott. The enterprise is running the federally-funded Sport4All program pilot in greater Geelong, along with five other Victorian municipalities. Project co-ordinator Ben Pettingill said

A cricket club bursting at the seams with juniors due to population growth in Geelong’s south has received funding for new practice nets. South Barwon Cricket Club’s junior numbers had grown dramatically over the past five years, according to president Simon Breuer. “With the growth in Warrarily and Armstrong Creek, our junior numbers have gone through the roof,” he said. “All [age] levels have got at least two sides.” Even using nets five days a week at the club’s home ground in Belmont, junior and senior training sessions were getting crowded, Mr Breuer said. The nets are located next to one of the club’s seven ovals, which “certainly have been chewed up” by bowlers’ run-ups during

training, Mr Breuer said. The club recently received $100,000 from state government, on top of $250,000 from council to rebuild the nets away from the ground. The funding will also allow the club to increase its hard-wicket and turf nets for its growing numbers, according to Mr Breuer. The project to relocate and rebuild the now 20-year-old nets will begin next April following the 2021-22 cricket season, to allow the growth of turf wickets. “These are going to be there for 20 years again, so we want to get this stuff right,” Mr Breuer said. “It will bring us into the 21st Century … make the nets safer.”

Kardinia Aquatic Centre is set to open year-round from July 1, giving swimmers access to the heated 50-metre pool during winter months. An allocation of $400,000 in council’s 2021-22 budget, adopted on Tuesday, has made possible the opening during the traditional off-season from May to September.

Saleyard development signed off By Luke Voogt Residents living next to the former Geelong saleyards could be unaware of recently-approved plans for a 1300-resident development on the site, a councillor has warned. “There are many positive aspects of this plan and I’ve been supportive of it since its inception, notwithstanding it’s sad we have lost the saleyards,” Eddy Kontelj said during council’s Tuesday night meeting. “My only concern is that the broader

community are potentially still not aware of just how significant this development is, and what is going to be occurring in the future.” The Brownbill ward councillor acknowledged some community feedback on the project to redevelop the North Geelong saleyards, which were operational for almost 150 years from 1869, and are located close to the suburb’s border with Geelong West. But Cr Kontelj said organisations such as the Pakington Street Traders Association, “who are quite knowledgeable on all things Geelong West”, had little “knowledge of this topic”.

“Like many of these developments, it’s not until it starts or turns up in your backyard that you finally realise, ‘oh hell, I didn’t know that was going on’. “I do still harbour some concerns that when the first sod is turned we’ll start to hear feedback.” Fellow Brownbill ward councillor Peter Murrihy acknowledged community concerns over traffic, preserving heritage, social housing and impacts on neighbouring areas. But he said residents would have further chances to examine and comment on the

“exciting project” and that historical material would be reused wherever possible. The plans include four hectares of parkland, 18,000 square metres of commercial space and a plaza with weather protection, seating, bicycle parking and landscaping. Windermere ward councillor Anthony Aitken encouraged council to move to the planning scheme amendment process “ASAP” to financially assist its bottom line. Council voted unanimously to approve the plans, which now await approval from the Victorian planning minister.

Resilience talk hits town Best-selling author and The Resilience Project founder Hugh van Cuylenburg is on his way to Geelong next month. Van Cuylenburg will stop at Costa Hall on July 11 to share positive mental health strategies, by unpacking research and breaking it down into simple tips to improve wellbeing. The visit is part of a national tour, which has sold out in previous years, according to promoters. The former primary school teacher has been working in mental health since a trip to live and volunteer in a village in northern India in 2008. “In this desert community, there was no running water, no electricity and no beds; everyone slept on the floor of their hut,” he said. “Despite the fact these people had very little to call their own, I was continually blown away by how happy they were.” The experience inspired a journey of post

graduate study to find out why, which he said led to “some pretty simple conclusions” about how Australians could be happier. He now teaches these simple and practical evidence-based mental health strategies to help build resilience and happiness. Van Cuylenburg has partnered with the Australian cricket, netball and soccer teams, NRL and AFL teams, and presented in more than 1000 schools and 500 workplaces. The mental health advocate is also the best-selling author of The Resilience Project: Finding Happiness Through Gratitude, Empathy and Mindfulness, which sold 100,000 copies in 2020.

Budget backs north aquatic hub By Luke Voogt A “record” $209 million infrastructure spend – including an extra $21.84 million for a planned northern health hub – forms the centrepiece of council’s newly endorsed budget. Council on Tuesday adopted its 2021-22 budget, including the economic stimulus program aimed at helping Geelong recover from COVID-19 and cope with its expanding population. “We have identified $209 million worth of priorities in capital works projects … including renewing ageing assets at a scale never seen before and for new facilities,” said Cr Anthony Aitken, council’s finance portfolio chair.

“Budgets are not just about money, they’re about values and priorities, and this budget reflects that.” The $21.84 million investment takes council’s total commitment to the now fully-funded Northern Aquatic and Community Hub to $44.84 million. Earlier in the week, council announced federal government had formally approved the allocation of $8.26 million for the planned $61.6 million preventative health facility. Cr Aitken and fellow Windermere ward councillor Kylie Grzybek described the project as “immensely important” and praised local advocates and federal senator Sarah Henderson for their support.

Despite the record spend, the budget “plans for a return to surplus within this council’s term”, according to Geelong mayor Stephanie Asher. Council will maintain fees and charges at 2020-21 levels at many swimming and recreational facilities, Breamlea Caravan Park, National Wool Museum and for building permits. “Despite continuing lower revenues due to the impacts of COVID-19, we have frozen many sport, recreation and cultural fees to encourage greater use of our facilities,” Cr Asher said. The general rate rise is the lowest recorded in greater Geelong’s history, with the increase

OVER 5 MILLION AUSTRALIANS HAVE NOW TAKEN THE NEXT STEP

limited to the Victorian government’s 1.5 per cent cap, according to council. Council has frozen the average movement on commercial rates and removed the Central Geelong Marketing (CGM) levy. The budget also includes a central Geelong parking initiative where motorists pay for one hour and get another free in two-hour zones, costing $2.1 million in 2021-22 and $8.3 million over four years. The compromise comes after a council officer report in March found a council proposal for free two-hour parking had “no tangible or intangible benefits” for the wider community. The forecast underlying operating deficit for 2021-22 is now $8.1 million.

Sculpture lauds diversity Almost 100 locals have “left their mark” on a portable Geelong sculpture celebrating people of all abilities. “The beautiful way they left their mark was so engaging – whether it’s spoken word or pictorial,” lead artist Mark Cuthbertson said. After being commissioned by council, the Inverleigh sculptor held a series of workshops for people with disabilities to learn their aspirations. He will add their contributions to the concrete letters I AM, inspired by 1968 Memphis black sanitation workers slogan “I Am a Man!” and Helen Reddy’s 1971 anthem “I Am Woman”. After finalising the moulds, Cuthbertson plans to pour the concrete next month. Each letter will weigh about two tonnes and rest on a steel plate, with the final plate left empty for locals to stand on. “The work can be lifted up and transported to a new site without any foundations,” he said. “It means a far broader audience can appreciate … the work that their community has invested in.”

FRIDAY FEATURE

Century-old mystery unearthed A time-worn gravestone in Eastern Geelong Cemetery reveals the tale of a farmer “cruelly murdered at midnight” – a crime that remains unsolved after 137 years. Geelong historian Doctor Peter Mansfield steps back in time to investigate the murder of Francis Beech, and vindication of his “beloved” widowed wife, Jane.

n January 21, 1884, Francis Beech was shot dead by an intruder who broke into his farmhouse at Pettavel. Beech was a prosperous cattle dealer, who lived with wife Jane. They employed a maid named Amelia Clark and an apprentice butcher named Frank Howarth, with all four living in the sprawling farmhouse. About midnight, Mr Beech heard breaking glass and confronted an intruder, who fired six bullets. Four struck and killed Mr Beech, one bullet hit Mrs Beech in the arm and the other embedded itself into the wall. The intruder fled and Mrs Beech’s screams attracted staff before she fled to her maid’s room, and fainted. The young apprentice butcher bravely rushed out into the night to seek help from neighbours. Police officers and a doctor arrived on the scene before dawn and a coronial inquest took place that afternoon. The police magistrate took evidence from Mrs Beech, Miss Clark, Mr Howarth and the doctor. The inquest found that no money had been stolen and no apparent motive for the violence. The official finding was that Francis Beech had been murdered by an “unknown person”. The police brought three Aboriginal trackers from Melbourne by train and they followed the escape route before losing the trail due to heavy rain. But police were confident of an early arrest, because the intruder had left footprints and dropped a distinctive cigar holder on the road. The murderer had also thrown the revolver into a shallow dam. Despite their confidence, the officers could not find the culprit and the government offered a £200 reward (roughly $46,000 Australian today), with Mrs Beech adding another £50. On January 24, 1884, Mr Beech was interred at Geelong Eastern Cemetery in a huge funeral. More than 50 horse-drawn carriages carried in mourners, followed by another 50 men on horseback. Meanwhile, police continued their colony-wide search for the murderer. They discovered the murder weapon had been sold by a registered gunsmith in Melbourne but the vendor had no records of the sale. The distinctive cigar holder was typical of a style adopted by prisoners at Pentridge Gaol. Three months later, police announced that the prime suspect was William Bourke. The Police Gazette on March 19 instructed officers to be on the lookout for “William Bourke, alias Irwin, alias Captain Donovan – an escaped lunatic”.

Police arrested Bourke at Mortlake and he faced the Geelong court on April 8. In spite of repeated reference to the fact that Bourke was insane, he was charged with murder and the trial commenced. Prosecutors presented evidence that Bourke was a “compulsive walker” known to travel 80 kilometres per day and often wore filthy, bloodstained clothes for a week at a time. His alibi was that, on the night of the Beech murder, he was on a crime spree in Melbourne and wearing shoes that he had stolen that night. On the second day of the trial, the court ruled the accused was insane and could not be found guilty of murder. He was then returned to an asylum in Melbourne. Fifteen months later, in April 1885, Geelong residents were shocked to read that police had arrested Mrs Beech and their butcher Mr Howarth for the murder of her late husband. Police had conducted two pre-dawn raids and taken both suspects to the Geelong prison. Bail was denied and they spent a week in prison awaiting trial. At the time of their arrest, Mrs Beech was

living with relatives in Geelong. Howarth was a newly-married man living in Moolap. Superintendent Toohey gave the press “exclusive” information, which turned out to be more fanciful than factual. When the accused came to court it was found that police had relied on gossip supplied by the former maid, Miss Amelia Clark, and had embellished other evidence.

After a two-day trial, a panel of eight justices of the peace threw out all the charges against Mrs Beech and Mr Howarth. The crowded courtroom erupted with applause and Mrs Beech fell to her knees praising Jesus for deliverance, and was so emotional she had to be carried from the court. The press labelled the trial a fiasco and said that “Toohey may have been a good policeman but was a poor detective”. In June 1885, the accused took legal action against the police force. But the police and government closed ranks and all charges of wrongful arrest and malicious prosecution were dismissed. Superintendent Toohey escaped with little more than a reprimand. The murder remained unsolved. Every few years the case was discussed in the colonial press, but to this day no one has discovered who shot dead Francis Beech. Mrs Beech died in 1926 at age 95 after spending more than 40 years as a widow.

PUBLIC NOTICES SPORT4ALL PILOT PROGRAM The City has put its support behind the national Sport4All program, as one of six Victorian local government areas to sign up to the initial pilot in the state. Sport4All aims to help sporting clubs and schools become more accessible and inclusive to enable people with disability to have choice and control over where and how they would like to participate in sport. The new program has been commissioned and funded by the Australian Government in collaboration with Sports Australia and is delivered by Get Skilled Access, a Disability Owned Business Enterprise founded by Paralympic Gold Medallist and Grand Slam champion Dylan Alcott. To support the pilot, the City is recruiting for a ‘Local Hero’ Disability Inclusion Program Coordinator to assist in the delivery of Sport4All by engaging with local sporting clubs and schools.

Plea to save ‘dying’ river By Luke Voogt The Moorabool River could “stop flowing altogether” without “major steps” to restore its health, according to the makers of a new locally-made film screening soon. Co-ordinator of the community group People for a Living Moorabool, Cameron Steele, said the “most flow-stressed river in Victoria” and its wildlife were in “dire circumstances”. “By the time the Moorabool reaches the Barwon at Geelong, about 90 per cent of its original natural flow has been trapped in water authority reservoirs and farm dams, and taken from groundwater,” the Bannockburn local said. “We hope when people have seen the film that they will lobby their politicians to take action to ensure the Moorabool can be restored to good health.” Those steps could include reusing, recycling or desalinating water, Mr Steele said. The group’s film, The Moorabool River, features local landowners, scientists, and healthy river advocates, along with wide-ranging views of the Moorabool river

The documentary, produced by Torquay’s Sheoaks Films, explores the consequences of local population growth, demand for the catchment’s water and climate change.

Rail film deal on track Corio children’s author, miniature train collector and Metro network controller John Smithers lives and breathes anything that runs on rails. “I think the first words I ever said were choo choo,” the 58-year-old said. “Trains got me through the darkest parts of my life.” Growing up in Richmond with no siblings and alcoholic parents, now deceased, John said he found solace in watching trains. “I was often left to my own devices and I found myself beside railway lines watching trains go by,” he said. “I was fascinated by the signals, the flashing lights and the different types of trains that went past, they were like a rainbow.” John’s other escape was telling stories in primary school, and he remembered bringing home a book he wrote that impressed his teachers. “Dad was in one of his drunken stupors,” he said. “He said, ‘that’s a piece of rubbish’ and threw it in the fire. That destroyed my ego.” While the incident put him off writing for a while, he kept pursuing his other passion by working on the heritage Puffing Billy Railway. Later, he worked on the then longest and heaviest trains in the world for Hamersley Iron hauling ore across the Pilbara. He also opened a small model train factory in Sri Lanka in 1993

between various jobs on the railways. In the late 1990s, when he began dating his second wife Joy, he told her: “One golden rule, don’t ever come between me and my trains – because you’ll lose,” he laughed. “She actually got on board with the business.” But when Joy suffered a stroke in 2012, John gave up his passion for the first time. “For the last five years of her life I gave up trains and put the business on hold to look after her,” he said. In 2017, a tram ringing its bell as he worked at the Kooyong signal box inspired a children’s book series combining his two passions – writing and rail. “I made the comment, ‘shut up Trevor’, and it was that quip that gave me the idea for Trevor the Tram,” he said. So he wrote a series of children’s books about Trevor, who foils bank robbers, transports firefighters to a blaze and helps a lost bride get to the altar on time. He enlisted a fellow model train enthusiast from Adelaide as illustrator and published the first book, Trevor the Tram and the little lost boy. Recently, Shepparton filmmaker Matt Poidevin contacted John to make a Thomas the Tank Engine-style film series on Trevor the Tram.

MY GEELONG Peter Ward trained with special forces and SWAT and hostage-rescue teams across Australia and the USA as part of Victoria Police’s elite tactical Special Operations Group. The new local divisional commander talks with Luke Voogt.

What have you done in your career with Victoria Police? I worked in several inner suburban police stations before joining the Special Operations Group (SOG) in 1994. I have also travelled extensively nationally and internationally undertaking tactical training programs, including with the FBI Hostage Rescue Team, the SAS Regiment in Perth and in New Zealand, and numerous SWAT teams in the USA. I spent about 15 years in the SOG as an operator and team leader, before progressing through the ranks running Richmond police station and being the Melbourne West local area commander. In 2018, I returned to the SOG as the divisional commander which saw me lead the SOG, the Critical Incident Response Team, the Bomb Response Unit, and the Protective Services Unit. In May 2021 I commenced my current role as the divisional commander of western region division one – Geelong. The highlight of my career would be reflecting on all the opportunities I have had to make a difference within the community.

(Ivan Kemp) 241303_04

Tell us about you… I was predominately raised in the south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne enjoying football, cricket and most other sports. I attended Marist Brothers completing my VCE and commenced a role in the banking industry before joining Victoria Police in 1989 at the tender age of 18. I was motivated to join Victoria Police after my research identified a wide variety of roles available, and it was a secure career pathway.

What do you like to do locally? In 2021 I moved with my family to the Geelong area, and my wife, our two teenagers and I are settling in well. On weekends and the school holidays we enjoy mountain biking in the You Yangs Regional Park, water activities – swimming and surfing – on the Surf Coast and playing basketball at home. Now lockdown is over we are enjoying all the food, coffee and eateries Geelong offers and are

amazed by the variety of cuisines. At the moment the following are in favour: Vietnamese, Indian, Mexican and the trusty pizza and pasta combo. How have you coped with COVID-19? There is no doubt COVID-19 has been challenging for us all, but as a family we have endured many hours of home schooling and have been very creative in keeping the boys occupied. I have recently received my second

AstraZeneca vaccination and have not had any adverse reactions. I have been very impressed by the community spirit and positive approach to the most recent lockdown and the uptake in getting vaccinated. What’s something about you that people might not know? I can’t start my day without an extra-large four shot late with half a sugar, no matter what day it is.

Dyed-in-the-wool rocker returns

By Luke Voogt Iconic Aussie pop singer Issi Dye had his first taste of retirement during COVID-19 – and hated it. “It was absolutely the worst taste I’ve ever had,” the performer of 56 years said. “I don’t play golf or fish or any of those things – I just perform. Bring on the gigs mate!” Dye was a variety TV icon in the ’60s, ’70s and ’80s, appearing on The Go!! Show, Countdown and the Don Lane Show, through

to Bert Newton, Kerri-Anne Kennerley and even Family Feud. He supported some of the world’s biggest names including Roy Orbison, Ray Charles and The Beach Boys, and Australians Johnny O’Keefe and John Farnharm. “I’m 75 and still rocking – I’m probably one of the only original rockers still going at the moment,” he said. Fittingly, O’Keefe’s hits will feature first and foremost on Dye’s playlist for his upcoming show at the Potato Shed tomorrow night.

YOU’RE MORE SUITED THAN YOU MIGHT THINK

He will also pay tribute to Elvis, Johnny Cash, Buddy Holly and other legends of music who Dye grew up listening to after his parents migrated to Australia. Dye was born Israel Dyzenhaus in Austria in 1946, less than a year after the Allies released his parents from a Nazi concentration camp at the end of World War II. “They were very lucky to survive, that’s one of the reasons I’m here,” he said. “They decided they were going to move to the furthest place from where the holocaust

happened, which was Melbourne.” Dye began singing as a teen at local dance halls before getting his big break at 19. “One thing led to another – I got picked up for a TV show and the rest is history,” he said. “I was doing much more performing than studying, so I left my university degree. Before I knew it, I went from studying to touring the country.” From his days opening for massive concerts and singing on variety TV, to cabaret and tribute shows in theatres across Australia, Dye has barely stopped since. “To keep doing what you love for 56 years is just amazing,” he said. But that all changed when COVID-19 hit, forcing Dye to take a long-term break for the first time in his career. Victoria’s latest lockdown forced him into another unwilling hiatus, especially given his older audiences. But Dye cannot wait to hit the road and get up close and personal to the Potato Shed audience again. “People are prepared to come in and enjoy what they grew up with,” he said. “I enjoy going out into the audience and getting them to sing with me, interacting with them, telling them stories and making sure they have a fun night.” He recently had his first AstraZeneca vaccination, and hopes to stay fit and healthy to entertain crowds for many years yet. “That’s what makes it worthwhile getting up in the morning, working hard and travelling the nation,” he said. “The most important thing for me is to pack up the gear, travel somewhere, perform for an audience, see their smiling faces and have fun.” Details: geelongaustralia.com.au/potatoshed

The Kite Machine takes flight By Luke Voogt The Kite Machine: Liam Brennan, Levi Anderson, Cam Jerabek and Kane Sherriff.

Geelong funk-rockers The Kite Machine had as many Spotify listeners “in Chicago as Melbourne at one point”, according to Lara frontman Levi Anderson. “I don’t quite know how it happened,” the 29-year-old songwriter, guitarist and lead vocalist said. “One of our main goals is to go to America where we have quite a few Spotify listeners, most of them, in fact.”

Anderson, the band’s principal songwriter, has a unique back-to-front method of penning tracks. “All of my songs have been written musically first – I can’t help it,” he said. “I’ve usually got a vague idea of what the song’s about. When I’m writing the music I’ll sing a lot of gibberish just to see how the

About 80 per cent of the band’s two million Spotify streams, including about 850,000 apiece for their top two tracks so far, Sinister Sound and Charlotte, originate in the US, according to Anderson. “The thing we’re most happy about is the 20,000 [monthly Spotify listeners] – that’s 20,000 people in the world who keep coming back for The Kite Machine,” he said. The band began when Anderson met Belmont drummer Kane Sherriff several years ago. “Originally, I poached Kane from another band – I saw him playing and thought he was pretty good,” he said. “I just got in touch with him and asked if he had any spare time to jam.” They later recruited Geelong West bass guitarist Liam Brennan and, in 2019, the then three-piece outfit released a debut self-titled 10-track album.

“But there were a lot of things we wanted to write and sounds we wanted to capture that were just impossible with three band members. “We love the sound of the rock organ and Cam’s an amazing player, so every time he adds something to what we’re playing, we just love it.” They had planned to head to the US, but then COVID-19 hit. They got by on other jobs, mostly in music, and put together two new singles dropping today: 5656 and Instant Pretty. Anderson described the nearly 16 minutes of genre-bending riffs, slick grooves and guitar acrobatics, mixed in their Barrabool Hills studio, as their best work yet. “We wanted to write some songs that would push the envelope of our skills, because if you’re not doing that, there’s no point really,” he said. “These were the first two that really hit home and felt like they were becoming something special. “Rather than wait for a full-length album, we thought we’d get them out there.” The first track, 5656, follows the vein of darker prog rock bands such as Karnivool or Tool, but with a more upbeat vibe, while Instant Pretty is reminiscent of Tame Impala’s Elephant. “I just love writing in the major keys and Mumford and Sons and Eagles-style melodies,” Anderson said. “There’s just something epic about having guitars playing these big major chords.” While visiting their large US following is off limits for now, they are set to embark on an interstate tour stopping at Barwon Club on August 7. “Our hometown show is always our favourite to play,” Anderson said.

WONDER WOMAN SEVEN/PRIME7, 8.30pm

Directed by Patty Jenkins, Wonder Woman is a stunningly shot exploration of the origins of the female superhero. Gal Gadot (Fast & Furious) commands the screen as the titular character, with a welcome emphasis on her strength and conviction, rather than her beauty. Set during World War I, Gadot is in her element as the fierce warrior trying to stop a global threat, while also discovering her true destiny. It’s a fun, thoughtful, passionate and often disarmingly humorous blockbuster.

ABC TV, 8.20pm

Tom Hanks is the n titular hero, a small-town p from simpleton who grows up ad an humble beginnings to lead arallels extraordinary life that parallels some of the most poignant ant story from moments in American history the ’50s through to the ’70s. 70s. Hanks is totally convincing and worthy uccess. of his Best Actor Oscar success. It’s hard not to play along g with this undeniably great at piece of storytelling and entertainment from director ctor Robert Zemeckis (Back to o the Future). Warm and fuzzy, but very effective.

Jane Austen’s unfinished final manuscript has been brought to life with lovely detail and intriguing characters, making it a perfectly diverting period drama. What better way to wile away a winter’s Saturday evening than to dip into a world where top hats, leather gloves, waistcoats and flowing gowns are the backdrop to everyday life, and romance is always promising to bloom? When you’re lounging in your tracksuit after ordering take-away pizza, it’s the epitome of escapism. Tonight, in the penultimate episode, Lady Denham (Anne Reid) is close to death, and the tensions between Edward (Jack Fox), Clara (Lily Sacofsky, right) and Esther (Charlotte Spencer) reach boiling point.

Scripted dramas and reality TV may be all the rage, so where do you go to soothe the soul with life-affirming stories and comic warmth? If you haven’t already made the discovery, it’s this unique interview series. With different interviewers each season – journalist and professor of global affairs Stan Grant and Paralympian Kurt Fearnley have asked the questions – this round boasts singer and drag queen Courtney Act (below). Through five episodes, kicking off tonight, she chats with some notable young people who are keen to make a difference.

GEELONG BUSINESS EXCELLENCE AWARDS

Advertising feature

Award helps school ‘take stock’ of success For the past three years, students at Kardinia International College have conducted an annual audit of the school’s waste by examining the contents of bins, checking whether rubbish was correctly disposed of according to recycling principles. This student-driven project was just one of the reasons the college was declared the winner of a 2020 Geelong Business Excellence Award in the Sustainability category, sponsored by Barwon South West Waste and Resource Recovery. Catherine Lockhart, one very proud principal, says the students and staff are keenly aware of doing their bit to take care of their corner of the planet. “We have two teams – the juniors known as the Planeteers and the seniors Earthcore – that report back on areas that need attention and advise on their progress,” Mrs Lockhart says. “They’re pushing the canteen to stop using plastic products, and we’re currently introducing a new bin system, thanks to their work. We’ll ultimately work towards zero waste.” “Our separate year 5 campus at Lovely Banks has students learn all about sustainability, with productive gardens, egg production, beehives, and education about sustainable farming practices. Our staff are amazing and the kids learn so much they can take into the future.” Mrs Lockhart says ethical guardianship of the planet is one of the cornerstones of the internationally-minded school, with the aim of fostering the next generation to take an active role. She says the college was thrilled to win the Sustainability award with its first entry, and definitely plans to enter again this year. “The application process was invaluable in itself. It helped us to take stock, to reflect on

what we’ve done well and celebrate that. “We joined the Chamber of Commerce three years ago, and being part of the awards is part of our commitment to their work in helping our community. It also demonstrates to our

students the importance of having a voice and agency in bringing about change.” Entries to the 2021 Geelong Business Excellence Awards close at 4pm on July 16 – go to www.gbea.com.au for all details.

YOUR SAY Modern service recognised Since 2018, the Australian War Memorial has engaged in extensive consultation on our Development Project, running our own national program in addition to the consultations connected to three major approval processes. We have reached more than half-a-million Australians in person, through our website and social media, surveys, community forums, focus groups, public notices and media. A total of 385 consultation activities have taken place, from meetings with community groups, to nationwide surveys and a national roadshow to every state and territory. We have listened, and more than 50 changes have been made to the project. One of the most important surveys took place in July 2020 when visitors to the Memorial were provided information on the project and asked if they supported it. More than 660 people answered this question. Remembering they had just visited existing galleries on Afghanistan and peacekeeping, 85 per cent of these visitors said ‘yes’ the Memorial

needs to do more to tell modern service stories and the plans we proposed were appropriate. Only six per cent were opposed. The expansion of the Memorial’s galleries to recognise recent conflicts and operations will allow us to tell the untold stories of our servicemen and servicewomen. Through this once in a generation project, veterans who served, and those still serving, will soon be able to visit the Memorial to share stories of their service and sacrifice with loved ones, and receive the recognition they deserve. Matt Anderson Director, Australian War Memorial

Rules too restrictive Surf Coast council’s governance rules are being updated. Submissions may be made until July 1. Surf Coast’s rules are the most restrictive of 22 peer councils, limiting what questions the public can ask of council and how many words they can use. A long list of topics

can be disallowed for discussion and, most surprisingly, councillors are not permitted to respond to public questions. Councillors are unnecessarily limited in submitting motions for public debate. A new rule is proposed that any amendment to a motion being debated cannot alter the outcome of the motion or the text of any document submitted by officers for endorsement via the motion. These proposed restrictions are unique to Surf Coast. They will clearly limit individual councillors’ ability to debate issues in the chamber. Their potential impact on good governance is inarguable. According to Robert’s Rules of Meeting Procedure, “The motion to amend is perhaps the single most-used of the subsidiary motions … You use this motion when you want to change the wording of the motion under consideration. You can use it to make a good idea better or a bad idea more palatable. “Amendments are really at the heart of the process of perfecting motions before a final

vote …” If you want your council to control the content of documents submitted by officers and your councillors to be able to express themselves democratically in the chamber, you should oppose the proposed changes to amendment rules. There are also many other opportunities to improve the rules. Please contact me via my council email or telephone if you would like a copy of a short paper I have written that explains these issues in more detail. Cr Heather Wellington Surf Coast Shire

Court cases pile up circuits were suspended in March, 2020. The court had 64 pending criminal trials as of this Wednesday. Local opposition MP Bev McArthur blamed the state government, accusing it of mismanaging the courts during the pandemic. “Victoria’s courts are burdened with huge

to see a magistrate. “All this is bad enough for the alleged perpetrator waiting to prove their innocence or otherwise. “But it’s the victims of crime who suffer the greatest violation – in the crime itself – and then in the wait for justice and resolution.”

Following the suspension of in-person circuit sittings, the County Court of Victoria implemented a new process for regional matters. Under the process, all pleas and appeals against sentences are provided with a fixed listing date upon committal or appeal lodgement. “The majority of these matters were conducted virtually using video conferencing software, with appearances in court permitted under limited circumstances,” a court spokesperson said. “This has reduced the delay for these types of matters.”

Non-finalised pleas at Geelong County Court have remained level on 26 between January 27, 2020 and January 27, 2021, with 80 pleas finalised between those dates. The Productivity Commission’s Report on Government Services (Justice) shows that pending criminal matters in the Magistrates Court of Victoria have increased by 82 per cent from 2014-15 to 2019-20. The Magistrates Court of Victoria did not provide caseload statistics on Geelong Magistrates Court in response to the Independent’s inquiries earlier this week. Attorney General Jaclyn Symes was contacted for comment.

Two-man show gets it right Keleman Motors is a well-respected name in Geelong and the Bellarine Peninsula and has been for more than 40 years. Shane Lockyer and Joe Atkinson took ownership of the region’s only independent Mazda specialist three years ago and Shane says it’s meticulous workmanship and customer focus that’s seen them continue building on a solid foundation. “We offer a strictly honest approach to workmanship of the highest quality,” Shane says. “We’re also known for our fair prices.”

The duo each has more than 15 years’ experience in the trade and make sure looking after their customers is a top priority as they carry out servicing and repairs to all makes and models. “There’s just the two of us in the workshop,” Joe says, “so customers can talk directly to the mechanic actually doing the work. And we always take time to explain in detail any issues their car may have. “No work is ever carried out without approval, but we’ll recommend what a vehicle

needs. Then the decision is left to the customer whether to go ahead.” Shane finishes by saying, “It’s just a two-man show but we do it right – price and quality-wise.” Keleman Motors, Factory 3, 13-15 Crown Street, South Geelong.

MOTOR

Seriously sporty

By Ewan Kennedy, Marque Motoring Somehow it doesn’t seem right that a large Audi SUV should have received the RS (Racing Sport) treatment. But when you stop and think about it the German automaker has been in the forefront of high-performance vehicles for many years. Since it launched the famed quattro way back in the late 1980s. Audi RS Q8 says it’s a masterpiece of engineering that can be used on racetracks as well as in off-road conditions. Hopefully the off-road feature is restricted to exploring the great Australian outback and doesn’t refer to off-road on racetracks… We have just spent an enjoyable week behind the wheel of the hottest, biggest Audi of them all, the RS Q8.

Styling There’s nothing shy and retiring about the Audi RS Q8. It has wider guards by 10mm at the front and 5mm at the rear. This not only makes space for 23-inch alloy wheels but also adds to the I-am-very-serious statement. The blackout treatment of the grille and air intakes gives it a tough look. As an aside, there are no cosmetic vents - all intakes serve a function. A slim roof-mounted spoiler tells drivers of cars that have just been overtaken that an Audi RS means business. The rear diffuser is finished in a honeycomb pattern. The huge two massive oval tailpipes not only look good but put out the right sounds, more about this in the Driving section of this test.

Interior The RS Q8 sports seats are finished in perforated leather with the signature RS honeycomb-pattern stitching. The front seats are heated and cooled, the rears have heating only. All three rear seats are large and comfortable. They slide fore and aft to let you juggle the passenger / luggage space. What seems to be the standard Audi instrument binnacle looks tiny in the big Q8, with the rest of the dash being extra wide to fill in the rest of the space.

Infotainment A top-end B&O sound system produces excellent musical entertainment. The RS Q8 has Audi’s MMI navigation plus infotainment 28 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 25 June, 2021

system that’s operated by a large integrated touchscreen that’s easy to use. As always, we caution drivers about using these systems while their car is moving. Apple CarPlay and Android Auto are standard, while the intelligent navigation suggests route guidance based on your previous trips.

Engines / transmissions The Audi twin turbo 4.0 V8 engine produces 600 horsepower, or in our metric language 441kW. Then there’s the stump pulling 800 Nm of torque. You can leap from zero to 100km/h in 3.8 seconds - in an SUV ! Audi’s eight-speed automatic has been uprated to handle the extra grunt and to provide very sharp shifts to keep it keep the power coming. Drive is sent to all four wheels in a 40:60 ratio (front:rear) in normal driving. There’s a mechanical centre differential can send the four wheels between 70:30 or 15:85 to adjust to driving and road conditions.

Safety The big Audi Q8 has a full range of occupant protection systems should the car still crash. There’s plenty of equipment to keep drivers out of trouble if they’re paying more attention to emails and texts than their driving.

AT A GLANCE MODEL RANGE Q8 3.0 TDI: $129,600 Q8 3.0 55 TFSI: $130,200 SQ8 4.0 TD V8: $166,500 RS Q8 TFSI: $208,500

Note: These prices do not include government or dealer delivery charges. Contact your local Audi dealer for drive-away prices.

Driving Isn’t it a shame we still have these silly low speed limits on Australian motorways? We’ve spent many a happy day on German autobahns and noticed that Audis of all sizes and types are the biggest inhabitants of the fast lanes. The virtual Audi Cockpit has extra RS information for the sporting driver; a g-meter, torque and power output dials, as well as shift lights when you’re driving in manual mode. There are eight drive modes; Comfort, Auto, Dynamic, Efficiency, Allroad, and Off-road. Keen drivers who really know their stuff can tailor their RS Q8 to their precise needs, altering engine and transmission mapping, steering, the air suspension and even the sound of the engine. At low speed, the rear wheels turn five

degrees in the opposite direction to the front. This makes it more maneuverable in tight spaces such as tight car parks. In normal diving the rear wheels turn 1.5 degrees in the same direction as the fronts to improve handling. The air suspension, which can vary ride height by up to 90 mm. As low as 40mm for when you want to get sporty. It’s probably best use only on racetracks. Or you can lift to 200mm of ground clearance should you wish to exploit the RS Q8’s off-road abilities. Cornering is precise and the big Audi provides good feedback and lets you know when it’s starting to feel uncomfortable - which is at far higher speeds than you anticipate. It does like a drink. Around town and in the suburbs, we were looking at numbers in the 15 to18 litres per hundred kilometres. Okay, it’s a big heavy vehicle but we had expected better than this. Country running saw it drop to 11 to 13 litres. On motorways it came under 10 litres per hundred kilometres.

Summing up Audi RS Q8 is an SUV for all reasons. It looks and sounds great, eats up the miles effortlessly and isn’t overly expensive for its class. And if you’re paying $208,500 plus on-roads the fact that the big V8 chews into the juice isn’t really a handicap.

Injury blow for Duncan By Luke Voogt Key midfielder Mitch Duncan will miss several weeks after injuring his right knee in the Cats’ thrilling win against the Western Bulldogs last Friday. The Cats subbed Duncan out of the game after he injured his posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), landing awkwardly in a marking contest during the first quarter. “We were expecting that the injury was to Mitch’s PCL, and the scan confirmed that,” Geelong Cats football general manager Simon Lloyd said. “There was no other damage to Mitch’s knee. The rehabilitation timelines will be further discussed with our medical and fitness team in consultation with specialists. We will explore all available options that will allow Mitch to return as quickly and safely as possible.” A player typically misses between four and 12 weeks for a PCL, depending on the grade of the injury, and provided it does not require surgery, according to the AFL. Teammate Tom Hawkins indicated Duncan’s injury was high-grade, meaning he would miss at least two months. “I saw Mitch this morning, he seemed to think his scan came back and it was a high-grade PCL, so Mitch’s going to miss some footy unfortunately,” Hawkins told Triple M. Duncan had averaged 23.7 disposals at 77.6 per cent efficiency in yet another consistent – albeit injury-plagued – season. The 30-year-old missed the first two games of the season with a calf strain and another match after suffering a concussion against Gold Coast in round 10. “He’s had a wretched run the last 18 months, so that’s eight to 10 weeks I think, but every individual is different,” Hawkins said. An eight-week recovery would mean

Duncan would return for Geelong’s last two games, including a crucial round 23 clash with ladder-leader Melbourne, while a 10-week recovery would allow him to return for the finals. “He’s really important for us, Mitch, so hopefully he gets back soon,” Hawkins said. Hawkins himself suffered a neck injury, which he played through until the end of the Cats’ thrilling five-point win, sealed by Gary Rohan’s after-the-siren goal. “I should be right, I think it’s one of those things that should settle down in the next 24 to 48 hours,” he said.

Meanwhile, captain Joel Selwood was fined over two separate incidents in the Cats’ win. He was charged with misconduct for hitting and scraping Bailey Dale’s head and face during a scrimmage in the first quarter. He was also charged with engaging in rough conduct for scraping Taylor Duryea’s shin with his studs as he moved to stand the mark, after appearing to unintentionally poke Duryea in the eye. With an early plea Selwood faced a fine of $1000 for the first incident and $2000 for the second.

Sixteen Cats re-sign for women’s side Geelong AFLW captain Meghan McDonald and reigning best and fairest Amy McDonald are among 16 Cats who have recommitted for at least the 2022 season. The duo signed on until the end of the 2023 season, along with vice-captain Jordan Ivey, Becky Webster, Sophie Van de Heuvel, Georgie Rankin and Olivia Barber, the Cats announced on Monday. Experienced trio Renee Garing, Maddy McMahon and Phoebe McWilliams re-signed for season 2022, alongside Rene Caris, Georgia Clarke, Laura Gardiner, Madisen Maguire, Darcy Moloney and Carly Remmos. “It’s fantastic to have this talented group of players commit to the club as we head towards season 2021-22,” Cats head of AFLW Brett Johnson said. “Our people are the heartbeat of our club.” Denby Taylor has decided to take a break from football, with Geelong to place the 21-year-old on the inactive list for season 2022, according to the Cats. Former Crow Chloe Scheer and former Demon Chantel Emonson will head to GMHBA Stadium after joining the club in this month’s trade period. Geelong holds selections two, seven, nine and 20 in the upcoming AFLW Draft.

SPORT Epic battle for first in top men’s division LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers Vocal spectators witnessed a tight tussle at Hamlyn Park as Geelong’s top two men’s sides battled for supremacy last Saturday. Plenty of shots grazed the net as Section 1 ladder-leader Hamlyn Park took two tightly-contested opening sets against second-placed Clifton Springs. Strong serving from Rob Arzanovski made life difficult for Clifton Springs, giving Hamlyn Park the early lead. But Greg Luke and Lucas Oddo fought back for Clifton Springs, winning the next two and evening the score at 22 games apiece. The crowd volume increased as Clifton Springs won a dramatic tie-break in the fifth to take the lead. Mick Parry and Shane Harman’s 6-1 final set win proved decisive, clinching Hamlyn Park

the win by four games. Joe Horvat’s ongoing battle with Ari Levinson across three sets, with different doubles partners, was a highlight of the day. Their three rubbers featured two tiebreaks and one 7-5, finishing 2-1 in Levinson’s favour,

despite his team losing overall, and with Horvat hobbling off the court. In other Section 1 tennis, Ocean Grove stunned home side Barwon Heads with a 6-0 win, to move from fourth to second on the ladder. Ocean Grove had a dream start with Jarrod Proctor and Sam Hines taking the first set 6-0, and Sean Williamson and Sean Cronwright winning 6-2 in the second. They did not look back, allowing Barwon Heads just nine games for the day and dropping them back from third to fifth. Surfcoast (seventh) hosted Geelong East Uniting (sixth) and started well with Andrew Erwin and Dale Antonyson taking the first set 7-5. But Uniting stormed back to win the next five, with Ryan Lange and Sean Olsen winning their three sets. The 5-1 win moves Uniting to fourth on the ladder.

Cats aim for balance By Luke Voogt Geelong Cats face a balancing act between managing players and “scrapping” for a top four spot as finals approach, according to coach Chris Scott. “There’s no room to pace yourself too much,” he told a press conference on Tuesday. “We have too much respect for the competition and just how difficult it is. “We feel like we’re fighting and scrapping for those top spots up on the ladder. “I guess the part that we do give some consideration to is how we manage our players. “You don’t want to wear your players out in what is a long and arduous season and sort of stumble over the line. “You want to be firing at the end of the day, but if you take too many liberties, you end too far down the ladder to really compete at the end of the year. “We’ve been working a little with our development of young players and our list management.” Some of that “management” had resulted from injuries, particularly with Patrick Dangerfield, Jeremy Cameron andreliable midfielder Mitch Duncan, Scott said. 30 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 25 June, 2021

“It’s tough. I’ve always been a believer that it’s impossible to replace your best players like-for-like, and Mitch is certainly in that category,” Scott said of Duncan’s recent injury. “Shaun Higgins, amongst others, are the type of players that we’re considering. We haven’t completely decided what it’s going to do to us structurally.” Despite speedy young defender-mid Jordan Clark playing more in the midfield in the VFL recently, Scott said he and Duncan “tend to play different positions”. “We’re keen to have him in the side at some point. Right at the moment he’s probably just a little bit behind some of the midfielders vying for that position that Duncan will vacate.” Scott was cautiously optimistic with the Cats third on the ladder after consecutive wins against top four contenders Western Bulldogs (second) and Port Adelaide (fifth). “We’re far from entrenched in that part of the ladder right at the moment,” he said. “We think it’s going to be a real challenge over the last part of the season – I suspect that there are eight really good teams vying for spots in the top four.” Scott defended captain Joel Selwood, who was fined a total of $3000 for hitting and

scraping Bailey Dale’s head and face, and scraping Taylor Duryea’s shin with his studs, in two separate incidents against the Bulldogs last Friday. “Humans in general, but footy players, even good ones, captains, legends of the game, make mistakes and they should put their hand up for that, which is what Joel did, in particular, with one of those incidents,” Scott said. “But the second one, where he accidentally stood on someone, was a genuine mistake and I think it’s actually incumbent on people in the footy industry to treat Joel Selwood with a level of respect, whereby when he says something, they believe him.” The champion, admired for his toughness, drew criticism for the behaviour from media commentators and Duryea during the week. “He handles it like the ultimate pro, so it won’t have any bearing on him at all,” Scott said. “But I think the broader issue over the long term – if people are saying with a straight face that that tarnishes his reputation, I think that reflects more on them then it does on him. “Joel’s an icon of the game and his reputation is important to him, and it’s important to us.” The Cats played Brisbane Lions last night after the Independent went to press.

Garfish add some fun to catch ON THE BITE Peri Stavropoulos The Geelong Waterfront continues to be one of the town’s hotspots with pinkie snapper in plague proportions. The fish are holding tight on structure and just about any structure along the waterfront has been fishing very well. It is a bit easier to access some locations via a boat or kayak but land-based fishos are still getting among the action. The snapper have been ranging from just legal size right up to about 3kg. There’s also been plenty of bi-catch such as flathead, trevally, snotty trevalla and salmon by the thousands. Garfish have remained in good numbers inside the harbour with Cunningham Pier being the number one location. Letting out a solid burley trail is key, with tiny cuts of bait suspended under a pencil float the trick to get a feed of these guys. Although not big, they are fantastic fun to catch. Clifton Springs remains a popular location for anglers in search of a feed of King George whiting. The fish have been holding in great numbers from Hermsley all the way through to Grassy Point. Athough there are lots more small fish than big ones, there is good quality. Fishing the tide changes and late in the afternoon have been the best bite times, with pipis and squid being the best baits. The oil rig off Port Campbell is on fire at the moment for tuna, with fish ranging from 5kg all the way through to 130kg and everything in-between. Trolling skirted lures has been the most popular technique, along with cubing, which has accounted for a fair share of the fish too. As mentioned, it is a very long run so make sure you check your fuel and plan your trip thoroughly. Lake Purrumbete continues to fish well for both trout and salmon over the past week and allows anglers to escape the windy weather as the lake offers plenty of protection. Trout have been biting well along the edge of the weed beds on shallow diving lures and mudeye suspended under a float. Kevin Hunter and David Russel fished together at the weekend in search of Chinook salmon, having great success in landing fish to 1.5kg while trolling megabass and Tassie devil lures.
