Pupils get ready to ride Pupils at Grovedale Primary School will be among the 350,000 children around the country jumping on their bikes for Ride2School Day next week. National Ride2School Day is Friday, March 25 and students have been encouraged to ride, scoot, skate or walk to school safely. The day, organised by Bicycle Network, aims to celebrate active travel and help children get their 60 minutes of daily exercise. Grovedale Primary School teacher Katie Baltetsch said “there are so many benefits of riding to school”. “Students can get some fresh air and exercise before school starts so they can come in ready to learn.” It also helped traffic flow in the morning when it could get very busy “with students getting dropped off,” Ms Baltetsch added. With some pupils set to ride to school for the first time, Ms Baltetsch encouraged pupils to practice riding with their parents or friends. “Grade 5 and 6s could ride with their parents or friends if they live close by, and they can put into the practise the skills they learnt during bike education last year,” she said.

‘Heritage vandalism’ plea By Ash Bolt The Friends of the Barwon River Ovoid Sewer Aqueduct are calling for Barwon Water to rethink its plans for the heritage-listed structure before it is partly demolished in the coming months. It’s expected works to remove four of the 110-year-old aqueduct’s 14 spans will be begin within months, after Barwon Water received approval from Heritage Victoria in 2020. The demolition of the four spans across

the Barwon River is part of Barwon Water’s Porronggitj Karrong project to open up public access to the river and 66 hectares of surrounding land in Breakwater, which will be turned into a cultural precinct in partnership with the Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation. Friends of the Barwon River Ovoid Sewer Aqueduct spokesperson David Le Lievre said allowing the structure to be partially demolished was “heritage vandalism”. The 756-metre bridge began construction in

1912 and was one of the first regional sewerage systems in regional Victoria, connecting a pipe from Geelong to Black Rock. “It’s a beautiful structure and when you think about it, it’s one of the most important historical structures we have,” Mr Le Lievre said. “Sewerage is fundamental to a city and that structure would have saved hundreds of thousands of lives over its time. “The person who designed it was clearly more of an architect than an engineer because

it’s beautiful but the reinforced concrete isn’t thick enough in some places … but it would be a shame to lose this structure. “It doesn’t make sense to me why anyone would want to get rid of this history.” Mr Le Lievre said he wanted to see the aqueduct maintained and turned into a tourist attraction. “Once you lose history, you can’t get it back,” he said. ■ Continued:

Woman jailed over burns death By Karen Sweeney/AAP “He’s got superficial peeling,” is how Geelong mum Angela Surtees described to emergency services the horrific fatal burns she caused her husband by dousing him in petrol and setting him on fire. Daniel Surtees was crying out in pain in the background of the triple-0 call on January 25, 2019. Surtees used a garden hose to put out the flames that engulfed the 36-year-old Geelong father while his two youngest daughters watched on. Mr Surtees suffered burns to 80 per cent of his body and died in hospital the following day.

Angela Surtees pleaded guilty to manslaughter, admitting she caused his death as a result of an unlawful and dangerous act. She wanted her husband to fear he would catch on fire when she poured a red jerry can of unleaded petrol over Mr Surtees as he sat in an armchair in their home’s enclosed porch sunroom. Surtees then lit a cigarette lighter in close proximity to the fuel, sparking the blaze. Victorian Supreme Court Justice Andrew Tinney on Friday, March 11 jailed Surtees, now 35, for 12 years. There were cries and sobs in the courtroom as the sentence was read out. Having already spent two years behind bars, Surtees will be eligible for parole after

another six years. “You and you alone caused his death by your criminal and outrageous actions which constituted a serious act of family violence,” Justice Tinney told Surtees. Justice Tinney has previously been critical of Surtees and her response to Mr Surtees’ injury and death, describing the question of her remorse as vexed. She wrote in a letter to the court that she would be “a prisoner of grief for the rest of my days”. But she never mentioned in the letter or her police interview the trauma she inflicted on Mr Surtees, he said. “At no point did she express any concern at all for his pain that he was going through, the

agonising situation he was going through as she spoke,” he said. Surtees snacked through the interview. “There’s no crime in that, but she did not come across as being a very distressed person at all,” Justice Tinney said. She gave an ever-changing account of what happened, to paint herself in a better light, and blamed Mr Surtees’ brother for his death after he made the decision to turn off life support. Mr Surtees’ eldest daughter remembered him as a fiercely protective “classic Aussie larrikin” who loved to cook. “All the special moments to come in my future – my heart will be hurting,” she said. 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) Lifeline 13 11 14

Sculpture moves from waterfront A sculpture celebrating people who have a lived experience with disability has moved from its temporary home at the Geelong Waterfront to Austin Park in Lara. Each letter in the sculpture weighs about four tonnes, requiring a crane to complete the move recently. City of Greater Geelong volunteering and disability portfolio chair Anthony Aitken said the sculpture would remain in Lara until later this year. “This work was designed to be relocated around the City of Greater Geelong to allow for a greater connection with our whole community and to increase awareness around the concepts it conveys,” Cr Aitken said. “It is an important piece of public art that celebrates people who live with a disability and reminds us that everyone’s voice is valued.” The sculpture was funded by the state government through the Community Support Fund and delivered in partnership with 2 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 18 March, 2022

It is a shining example of the wide range of creative talent in our inclusive city - Jim Mason

’’

VALiD (Victorian Advocacy League for Individuals with Disabilities) and Geelong-based ArtGusto. Creative communities and culture portfolio deputy chair Jim Mason and Lara MP John Eren joined artist Mark Cuthbertson is celebrating the arrival of the artwork in Lara last week. The City of Greater Geelong commissioned Mr Cuthbertson, with artist-collaborators Robert Croft, Hannah Wilkinson, Christian Den Besten and George Macaronis, to develop the public art sculpture. The sculpture was developed based on

more than 85 contributions from the local community through a series of artist-led workshops. Drawing reference from powerful political and pop culture statements such as the 1968 Memphis black sanitation workers slogan ‘I am a man’, and Helen Reddy’s 1971 anthem ‘I Am Woman’, the work celebrates the empowerment of diversity in our society. Cr Mason said he hoped the sculpture would be embraced by the Lara community. “So many people across our community contributed their ideas to the development of this work so we’re proud it’s making its way around the municipality,” Cr Mason said. “It is a shining example of the wide range of creative talent in our inclusive city, where everyone has a rightful and participatory place.” The sculpture had been in place in front of the Carousel at the Waterfront since September.

Police have arrested two men over separate alleged evading police incidents in Corio just over 24 hours apart. A 35-year-old Norlane man was charged on Saturday, March 12 after he allegedly failed to stop for police while driving a stolen vehicle in the northern suburbs on early that morning. Police observed a stolen vehicle travelling on Gull Street in Norlane around 2.15am. The 2005 BMW E90 sedan was allegedly stolen during an aggravated burglary in Norlane on Friday night. Officers followed the vehicle through several streets in Corio and Norlane, before setting up stop sticks on the Princes Freeway. The vehicle then travelled into the intersection of Goldsworthy Road and Princess Road in Corio where it caught fire and stopped. The driver fled the scene on foot but was arrested without incident nearby shortly after. The 35-year-old Norlane man was interviewed by detectives and charged with more than 10 offences including aggravated carjacking, armed robbery, dangerous driving and possessing a controlled weapon. It was the second alleged evade incident in Corio, after a separate incident on Thursday afternoon. It was alleged the white Holden sedan was seen speeding on Melbourne Road on Thursday afternoon and failed to stop when police tried to intercept in. The vehicle allegedly side-swiped another car and lost control on Bacchus Marsh Road, crashing at the entrance to the Corio Village carpark. The driver allegedly fled the scene but was caught by a passer-by. The alleged driver and a passenger were both taken to hospital with minor injuries. Police are also calling for information about a series of incidents on the Geelong Ring Road. Police said around 11pm on March 10, the victim was driving under the Creamery Road overpass when a projectile, believed to be a rock or piece of concrete, was thrown from the overpass. It hit the vehicle, smashing the windscreen and damaging several panels. Police said it was the third similar incident, with previous reports at the same location between 10pm and 2am on February 18 and 20.

Speeding drivers caught over the long weekend Almost 30 impaired drivers were nabbed across the Greater Geelong and Surf Coast region during Victoria Police’s long weekend road safety operation. Police ran Operation Arid from Friday, March 11 to Monday, March 14, with police putting a focus on enforcing road safety on rural roads and at holiday hotspots. More than 7000 traffic offences were detected statewide across the weekend, including 173 in Greater Geelong and 52 on the Surf Coast. Seven drink drivers and 13 drug drivers were nabbed in Geelong, along with six drink drivers and two drug drivers on the Surf Coast.

The Geelong Police Eyewatch page said one of those was a male driver intercepted after leaving the Norlane Hotel on Monday night. The man blew 0.118 on a preliminary breath test – more than twice the 0.05 limit – and allegedly had a cancelled license. “Driver stated he caught up with some mates for a drink and was heading back to Barwon Heads. Can you imagine the risk at that high range not only to himself but other road users?” the page shared. The man’s vehicle was impounded, one of four impounded in Geelong during Operation Arid. Police also impounded a 23-year-old

Norlane man’s vehicle after he was allegedly caught by Geelong Highway Patrol members doing burnouts in front of onlookers at Point Henry Road, Moolap on Saturday night. Police said he was intercepted after one of the vehicle’s wheels nearly caught fire and investigations revealed his license had been cancelled. The vehicle was also showing incorrect number plates, police said. He was charged and summonsed to appear before court on seven driving charges. Across the state speeding was the major offence detected, making up 40 per cent of

Mum’s water warning By Ash Bolt A Geelong mum is sharing her son’s near-death drowning experience as part of a new Kidsafe Victoria water safety campaign. Brooke’s son Oscar was just 13 months old when he fell into an esky containing melted ice in the backyard of their home. She shared the moment she thought she had lost her son as part of Kidsafe Victoria’s new campaign, ’Through My Eyes’, to raise awareness of water hazards around the home. “I hadn’t thought that an esky would be a hazard,” Brooke said. “Oscar was playing outside in a safe space while I went to put dinner on. I was only gone for a couple of minutes when I realised it had gone too quiet. “I found Oscar with his little legs sticking up out of the esky and his head was under water.” The esky had been used at a party and was left out so the ice melted because it was too heavy to move. Brooke had no idea that it would be a danger and had not expected Oscar would fall in. Brooke had recently graduated from nursing studies, but it was the first time she had performed CPR. After what she said felt like forever, but was approximately five minutes of CPR, Oscar started to cough and came to. He spent two days in hospital under observation, with doctors concerned about how long he had been without oxygen. However Oscar is now nine years old and has no lasting effects. “CPR really does save lives. Your split second decision can give another person a second chance at life, and my son is living proof of that,” Brooke said. “I’m sharing my story so others don’t have to live it. I want other parents to know how dangerous containers like eskies with melted ice can be and to never leave their children unsupervised around them.” Kidsafe Victoria general manager Jason Chambers said drowning continued to be one

of the leading causes of unintentional death for children under the age of five. “Twenty seconds and a few centimetres of water is all it takes for a toddler to drown – this means that items including eskies with melted ice, buckets, fish ponds, wading or portable pools and even pet water bowls, can all pose a potential drowning hazard,” he said. “Toddlers are naturally curious, yet don’t

understand the dangers that water can pose. Because they tend to be top heavy, they can easily topple over into the water as they lean over or reach for an object.” As part of the new campaign, Kidsafe Victoria is encouraging parents and carers to check around their homes for potential drowning hazards and put strategies in place to help reduce the risk.

offences. In the region, speeding made up almost two-thirds of all offense, with 109 speeders caught in Geelong and 35 on the Surf Coast. Road policing assistant commissioner Glenn Weir said behaviour on the roads across the weekend was generally good. “Our increased focus on road safety across March has only begun and the community should be assured they’ll continue to see police out enforcing during this high-risk period. “We plead with all road users to make good choices – one bad decision is all it takes to cause a tragedy.”

City’s social housing push The City of Greater Geelong is seeking the community’s feedback on a proposal to make three blocks of city-owned land available for social housing. The three sites in Corio, Belmont and Bell Post Hill were deemed surplus during an audit of city-owned land and could potentially be made available to increase social housing in the region under the city’s Social Housing Plan 2020-2041. In Greater Geelong there are 3300 households living in social housing but about 10,000 households need social housing, and this is expected to grow to nearly 17,000 households by 2041. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said there was a shared responsibility to identify land that was suitable for social housing. “Having a roof over your head is a basic human right and it will take all levels of government and the development community to come together and make some headway on this pressing issue,” Cr Sullivan said. “I strongly encourage community members to share their experiences and thoughts on how we can get it right for our most vulnerable.” Social housing portfolio chair Sarah Mansfield said “these parcels of land are a great opportunity to make a small but meaningful difference for our friends, family, neighbours and fellow community members who need social housing support.” The three sites identified as suitable for social housing development are 116-120 Purnell Road, Corio, 5A Dean Street, Belmont and 2-7 Rollins Road and 9-14 Rollins Road, Bell Post Hill. Public feedback is open via the city’s Have Your say page until Wednesday, April 6.

Anglesea park reopens Anglesea’s revamped Coogoorah Park playground is now open for the community to enjoy. The playground has been completely redeveloped but has kept the same nautical theme that saw the playground informally known as Pirate Park. The main feature is a large timber ship, with more than 30 play elements, including climbing ropes, rock climbing panels, slides, scramble nets as well as pirate themed features like treasure hunts and binoculars. Surf Coast Shire councillor Mike Bodsworth said it was designed to allow access points for all ages and abilities. “Coogoorah Park holds a special place in Anglesea locals’ hearts, so community consultation was a critical part of the planning and design process,” he said. “From this consultation, we learned that people really valued the nautical theme of the original playground, so we made sure this carried through in the new design.

“The community also told us they wanted the playground to be made from predominantly natural materials and they wanted imaginative play to be a strong focus. “The new playground has been built with all this at front of mind, and I know kids are going to absolutely love it. It’s a fun and welcoming space where adventures will be had, imaginations will run wild and more treasured memories will be made.” The Coogoorah Park playground redevelopment was funded by the Surf Coast Shire Council as part of its playground renewal program.The Coogoorah Park playground redevelopment was funded by the Surf Coast Shire Council as part of its playground renewal program.

Live park performances By Ash Bolt Workers, students and shoppers returning to the city can enjoy free live music and entertainment in Central Geelong’s newest park on Friday nights this month. The City of Greater Geelong kicked off its entertainment program at the new park at block one of the Green Spine on Malop Street, between Gheringhap and Moorabool streets, last week. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan said the live performances were designed to help people rediscover what they loved about heading into Central Geelong, while supporting local shops, restaurants, cafes and bars. “People have missed seeing their workmates over coffee, having a chat and heading out for drinks or shopping on a Friday night,” he said. “It’s time to say goodbye to your Zoom screen and tracksuit pants. Come into Geelong and enjoy the fabulous food, wine and entertainment on offer. “Watch the sun set at a beachfront bar, enjoy the fabulous food on Little Malop Street, and feel the buzz of live music in downtown Geelong.” Arts, live entertainment and hospitality portfolio chair Eddy Kontelj said the program was also creating work for local performers while encouraging people to come back into the CBD. “Local musicians and performers have suffered over the last two years and punters have really missed the buzz and connection you only get from seeing live music,” Cr Kontelj said. “Geelong is open for business so bring your family, friends into the city to enjoy the free entertainment on offer every Friday night in March.” The entertainment started last Friday with hula hooping and the Victoriana Gaye Trio,

and will continue for the next three weeks. On Friday, March 18, the park will host children’s activities, including flower crowns and wand-making workshops, from 5-6.30pm, before Quinn EarthChild and the Roaming Woods play some alt-indie-folk music until 7.30pm. It will continue on March 25 with Nic Dacomb’s vintage circus play and some gypsy-style jazz music, before finishing on

April 1 with Bubbles and Beats Bicycle Disco and Los Locos’ latin music. It’s the first major use of the new Green Spine block one park, which was completed in December, providing an entry to Malop Street from Johnstone Park and the Geelong Train Station precinct. The park includes an all-abilities landscaped triangular park, new plants and trees, wide bluestone paving, seating, and alfresco areas.

Teens wanted for pain study Deakin University researchers are looking for teenagers in the region to help with a study into the treatment of knee pain. One in four adolescents experience pain in their kneecaps and, if left untreated, it can continue into adulthood, leading to reduced physical activity and quality of life. The trial at Deakin’s 3D Gait Lab at the Waurn Ponds campus will involve an assessment of participants’ gait and biomechanics in two different types of school footwear and a standard athletic shoe. Participants will then be randomly assigned into groups and asked to wear an allocated school shoe for 12 weeks before returning for further assessment. School of Exercise and Nutrition Sciences senior lecturer Dr Jason Bonacci said the trial, part of a study by Deakin PhD student and podiatrist Natalie Mazzella, was investigating whether alternate school shoes could improve knee pain in adolescents. “We know certain types of footwear can reduce the load on the kneecaps and lessen pain,” he said. “This study will help us identify whether the right type of school shoe could provide a readily accessible and low-cost treatment.” Researchers are looking for participants, aged 12 to 18 years, who have knee pain. Anyone interested in participating can contact Natalie Mazzella at nmazzella@ deakin.edu.au.

Call to save highland gathering Organisers of one of Geelong’s longest-running events are concerned it could be coming to an end if younger people don’t get involved. The committee behind the Geelong Highland Gathering is calling for younger people to help organise future gatherings and continue celebrating Scottish history in the region. The gathering, usually held on the third Sunday in March, hasn’t been seen since 2019 due to the pandemic and president and chieftain Dr Maurice Marshall said it was possible the event would not return if the committee didn’t grow. He said most of the committee’s members were aging, in their 60s and 70s, and there needed to be an injection of youth to ensure its

future. “The City of Greater Geelong and Geelong Major Events Committee have been wonderful supporters of the gathering and we hope to find a new permanent home where we can rebuild it to once again be the second largest, perhaps even the largest, highland gathering in Australia,” Dr Marshall said. “But we do need a younger generation to become involved and develop a vision for the future.” The gathering was first held in South Geelong in 1857 – the first in Victoria and second in the country. It ran until 1929, when it ended during the Great Depression by was resurrected almost 30 years later in 1957 by the

Newtown City Council, which was looking for a showpiece event for Queen’s Park. Dr Marshall said the committee was also hopeful of finding a permanent home for the event. “Geelong has a great Scottish history,” Dr Marshall said. “There is still room for Geelong to expand its gathering if it can rebuild its committee with younger blood and find a permanent home once again which can win over Victorian and Australian pipe band championship organisers. “It has been a wonderful major event for Geelong over so many years.” For further information email secretary@ geelonghighlandgathering.org.au.

“A lot of people wouldn’t even know this was there because it’s all closed off and hidden away. “If you put in a decent path through the area and a cafe or something there and the City of Greater Geelong promoted it as an attraction, people would definitely come and have a look at it. “It’s something different you wouldn’t see anywhere else.” The aqueduct was used in its original capacity by Barwon Water until it was decommissioned in 1992, when an underground sewer pipe was built. The area around the aqueduct, including the Barwon River underneath, has been closed to the public since 1995 due to safety fears about falling concrete. Barwon Water planning, delivery and environment general manager Seamus Butcher said the organisation had considered all options for the aqueduct. “Following extensive community and stakeholder engagement, we undertook detailed investigations on all possible options for managing the safety risks posed by the Ovoid Sewer Aqueduct, including those that community heritage groups suggested,” Mr Butcher said. “We investigated options for improving, stopping or slowing the aqueduct’s natural degradation, but technical advice made it clear this was not viable from a safety and cost perspective. The best option was to remove several spans across the river so people can enjoy the area safely. Mr Le Lievre said the Friends group wanted to see culvert-like structures installed to mitigate the risk of falling concrete when people passed under the aqueduct. “Removing the part that crosses over the river and leaving the rest doesn’t make sense because that’s the section that you would see if the place was opened up,” he said. “But more than that, it’s just disappointing that Barwon Water wants to and has been allowed to destroy part of a heritage-listed structure.” Removing four spans of the aqueduct that cross the Barwon River will allow for the river to be reopened to kayakers and canoers and also provide space for a walking track to be installed. Heritage Victoria approved the plan in 2020 and said “evidence was provided as to the unacceptable safety risk to the public of the aqueduct spans crossing the Barwon River”. As part of the $6.5 million project, Barwon Water will also have to prop and stabilise the remaining 10 spans of the aqueduct, which will remain. Early works to clear vegetation and prepare the site has already begun, with propping works set to start soon and demolition works after that.

Wooden Boat Festival a success By Ash Bolt The best of Corio Bay was on show for the 2022 Wooden Boat Festival of Geelong last weekend. Eighty-nine classic wooden boats attracted record numbers to the Geelong Waterfront over the long weekend for the Royal Geelong Yacht Club’s biennial event. The three-day festival included on-water racing, static display boats, festival exhibitors and live music by local and Victorian acts. Wangim Walk provided the focal point of action on Saturday, with festival-goers packing the 440-metre-long wave attenuator for a glimpse at two tall ships in attendance, the STS Young Endeavour and Enterprize, the latter of which was at capacity for most of the day. “This year’s Wooden Boat Festival saw an amazing turnout over the Labour Day long weekend,” festival chairman Bill Chittenden said. “We are ecstatic with both the number and quality of wooden and classic boats at this year’s festival. With boats from around Victoria and interstate, our sights are set on an even better showing at our next event in 2024.“ The Concourse d’Elegance, awarded to the

The Leura Park Estate Concourse d’Elegance for Wooden Yachts was won by David Logan’s Koonawarra from the Royal Yacht Club of Victoria. The Cayzer Boats Concourse d’Elegance for Wooden Power Boats was won by Jim Woods’s Margaret Pearl from Royal Melbourne Yacht Club, and the Ruth Plummer Grand Parade was awarded to Colin Anderson’s Acrospire III, again from the Royal Yacht Club of Victoria. Royal Geelong Yacht Club commodore Stuart Dickson said it was great to see crowds allowed to attend the festival, after the Festival of Sails was scaled back due to COVID restrictions. This year’s festival coincided with the Victorian Etchells State Championships across the weekend. Shoulda Gone Left AUS1395 skippered by Robin Deussen, with David Snoad and Jesse Mitton from the Cruising Yacht Club of South Australia, was the standout and won the final race on Monday to take the championship convincingly from current national champions, Tango AUS1466, Chris Hampton and Sam Haines with fill-in crew, Barney Walker.

YOUR SAY Call to end vaccine mandate The recent lifting of some restrictions by Premier Andrews is welcomed, however for those of us who are not yet fully vaccinated, nothing much has changed. After nearly six months we still can’t go and have coffee with friends, dine out with our families, and are still locked out from cinema’s, museums and art galleries and still can’t get a haircut. The unvaccinated have been denied basic liberties enjoyed by other citizens especially when compared with NSW where the vaccinated and unvaccinated are treated the same – as it should be.

The premier’s lockout mandate of those not yet fully vaccinated is bizarre when there appears no valid medical reason to keep this discriminatory policy in place – given vaccination rates in Victoria are now approaching 95 per cent. I challenge the premier to walk a mile in an unvaccinated person’s shoes and see how it feels like to be treated like a pariah. Unvaccinated people like myself have paid taxes all our lives and been law abiding, served our country in the military, and this is the reward we get for living a good life over many decades especially in our retirement? Enough is enough. Premier, it’s time

Viva Energy Gas Terminal Project Update

Viva Energy is seeking approval to develop a new Gas Terminal at the Geelong Refinery. The Gas Terminal would bring in Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) by ship to boost natural gas supply ahead of projected shortages, heating homes and supporting industry in Victoria and south-east Australia. A rigorous assessment process Over the last 15 months, Viva Energy has completed detailed technical studies as part of the regulated Environment Effects Statement (EES) for the project. The EES is a rigorous assessment to identify potential impacts of the project on the local community and the environment, overseen by the Victorian Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning. The studies and assessments show that we can build and operate the Gas Terminal safely, while minimising impacts on the community and the environment. Jobs for Geelong, Energy for Victoria The Gas Terminal would generate jobs for 150–200 people during construction and create 50–70 permanent jobs and new skills in Geelong. It is a key project for our Geelong Energy Hub which will see the refinery site not only provide half of the state’s fuel needs, but move towards supplying transitional energies such as gas and renewable energies such as solar and hydrogen. We have been part of the community for nearly 70 years and are excited about the future.

Spreading satisfied smiles at Creative Dental Haus Having worked as a dentist in the Geelong area since 2009, Geelong west resident, Dr Andrew James, opened an exciting new dental practice in late February this year. Creative Dental Haus offers all aspects of dentistry including check up and clean, children’s dentistry, root canal treatment, dental emergencies, dental hygiene and gum disease treatment, wisdom tooth removal, tooth extractions, sports mouthguards, tooth coloured fillings, SomnoMed sleep apnea devices and teeth grinding and clenching treatments. The practice also offers cosmetic dentistry including composite veneers and bonding, digital dentistry, gum lifting and gummy

smile treatments, partial and full dentures, porcelain veneers, crowns, dental implants, in-chair Philips ZOOM! teeth whitening, take home whitening kits and overall smile makeovers. Driven by the need to provide genuine family dentist services to the Geelong region, Dr James has created a practice that doesn’t feel like a dental clinic – it is warm, homely and welcoming. “I enjoy getting to know my patients and understand that a visit to the dentist can be daunting,” says Dr James. “Our approach is calm, gentle and pain-free … we use state-of-the-art equipment ensuring our patients receive the

most comfortable dental experience.” The ambience of a day spa is almost tangible in the practice, with the brand new modern clinic playing around-the-clock calming music to minimise noise from dental equipment, coffee facilities for patients and guests, beautiful greenery and comfy couches in the waiting room, and art lining the walls. Convenient parking and accessible facilities mean that patients are able to easily navigate their way in and out of the clinic. In the treatment rooms, there are televisions in the ceiling to engage patients’ attention from the services they receive, with a wide range of shows available to stream in

the chair. All kids receiving treatment will receive balloons and gift bags to positively reinforce their dentist experience. Providing affordable and comprehensive dental services in a family-friendly environment, Creative Dental Haus knows that all patients are unique so treatment is tailored and personalised. “We are proud of the work we do to achieve the best outcome for every single patient,” Dr James says. Creative Dental Haus is located at Shop 3/96 Pakington Street, Geelong West. For more information, visit www.creativedentalhaus. com.au or phone (03) 5222 6656.

Open mic at Aireys fest By Ash Bolt Talented young Surf Coast musicians will take to the FReeZA stage as part of this year’s Aireys Inlet Music Festival this weekend. Established in 2008 as the Aireys Inlet Open Mic Music Festival, the event is a tourist drawcard for the region and features a surprise headliner every year, with past performers including Tim Rogers, Tash Sultana, and Dan Sultan. The FReeZA initiative, now in its fith year at the festival, gives Surf Coast musicians the opportunity to showcase their talent, and will be the only stage running on Sunday, March 20. Set at the Great Ocean Road Mini Golf, the stage will see around 10 young musicians perform from 11am until 4pm to close out the program.

‘‘

A stage spot is highly sought after

’’

- Libby Stapleton

Mayor Libby Stapleton said it was an exciting opportunity for all of the emerging artists involved, from those performing two or three songs to musicians with 40-minute sets. “The FReeZA stage is a great initiative, and the opportunity to perform to large crowds in front of other musicians is really exciting for our young Surf Coast talent,” Cr Stapleton said. “It’s a highlight of the FReeZA calendar, and a stage spot is highly sought ater. It’s also an excellent opportunity for future event managers, with students from Lorne P-12 getting involved.”

As part of the three-day festival from March 18 to 20, local students cover an array of important roles on the day, such as MC, photographer and stage manager. Typically, the festival hosts nine stages over three days, with over 150 acts, culminating in a mystery performer on the Sunday aternoon. For the first time, the mystery guest has been announced prior to the event, with Josh Teskey from the Teskey Brothers performing a day ahead of the usual program. “With the majority of acts happening over Friday and Saturday, our young musos will have the festival’s sole attention on Sunday, which is really exciting for them,” Cr Stapleton said. “Ater a difficult couple of years navigating the pandemic, I’m so happy that a fantastic festival like this can go ahead and create opportunities for future artists.”

Studio doors thrown open to visitors Artists and makers from across the Geelong region will throw off their drop sheets, open their doors and showcase their work to the public over two weekends during Geelong Design Week. Called Open Studios, the program was one of the most successful during last year’s design week. Geelong Design Week will be held from March 17 to 27 with the theme Taur, meaning ‘belonging’ in the language of the Wadawurrung people. The Open Studios program will run over the two weekends during the 10-day celebration of all things design, with studios grouped into precincts. 12 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 18 March, 2022

Over the first weekend, March 19 and 20, 22 galleries and studios and 48 artists in the south and east of Greater Geelong will open their doors, while the following weekend will see 15 galleries and studios and 48 artists in the north and west welcome visitors. More than 115 artists at 37 venues will open their doors for the signature event on the Geelong Design Week calendar, allowing a behind the scenes peek into these artistic and creative workspaces, getting up close and personal to watch the artists at work, and ask questions whilst the artists create their magic. Among the studios that will be open is the

creative space of glass artist David Hobday in Point Lonsdale. Hobday’s art is inspired by the beauty, diversity, and fragility of the marine environment, which is heavily influenced by his long career as a marine biologist. Elizabeth Bell will also open her garden studio in Geelong West, where she creates delightful ceramics in her home, while Jacinta Leitch will also welcome visitors to her home studio where she makes her public artworks and sculptures that are displayed around the region.

The seventh incarnation of the iconic Lorne Sculpture Biennale was officially launched at the weekend by Tourism Minister Dan Tehan. The sculptors, VIP guests, dignitaries and the festival’s supporters gathered at Mantra Lorne on Saturday, March 12 to launch the Lorne Sculpture Biennale, which had been delayed several times by the pandemic. Held along the iconic Lorne foreshore, the Biennale’s 16 sculptures will be in situ until Sunday, April 3. The theme, Spirit of Place, was conjured by curator and local arts legend Graeme Wilkie, who invited the artists to create to the theme, taking inspiration from Lorne’s natural beauty, history and cultural spirit. Wilkie said it was pleasing to finally see the sculptures in place and the Biennale going ahead. “[The launch] is the culmination of years of work that included two postponements and some challenging conditions for our artists and event teams,” he said. “I am proud and delighted with the incredible effort and commitment shown by everyone to bring this amazing event to fruition. “We know this year’s Biennale will be one of our finest yet and we thank our local federal member, the Hon Dan Tehan MP, for joining us to celebrate vision and creativity in this beautiful location. “We look forward to welcoming record numbers of visitors to Lorne over the course of the Biennale.” In addition to the main event – 16 sculptures from notable sculptors including Stevens Vaughn, Deborah Halpern, Geoffrey Ricardo, Laine Hogarty, Alexander Knox, Karen Casey and Maree Clarke – the Biennale this year includes a small sculpture exhibition. The exhibition features works by all 16 selected Biennale artists and will be held in Lorne’s Community Connect building for the duration of the Biennale. A range of invited emerging, mid-career and established artists will also be showcased in the exhibition, with all the works available for purchase. The free event is also offering a small sculpture prize of $5000, with a judging panel including former Geelong Gallery director and Point Leo Sculpture Park head curator Geoffrey Edwards, former Ian Potter Museum of Art director Kelly Gellatly and Dr Graeme Williams.

The Guide PICK OF THE WEEK A DOG’S WORLD WITH TONY ARMSTRONG ABC TV, Tuesday, 8.30pm

Have you stared lovingly into your dog’s eyes and wondered what they were thinking? Any dog lover will admit to that! While this heartwarming new series can’t answer that age-old question, it delivers on a bunch of others that enlighten us on man’s best friend. Hosted by ABC News presenter Tony Armstrong, this three-part deep dive into our canine counterparts is a playful and educational delight. The series begins with a look at friendship, exploring the evolution of the human and dog bond. Next week, Armstrong explores dogs’ senses and how science can reveal how they experience the world, concluding with an exploration of dog happiness.

LA BREA Nine, Monday, 9pm

It’s rare for a crime series to pull on the heartstrings as much as this award-winning sensation. Returning tonight for its fourth season, the British series is awash with emotion and intricate characters, none the least its protagonists, DCI Cassie Stuart (Nicola Walker, pictured) and DI Sunny Khan (Sanjeev Bhaskar), who share a beguiling friendship as partners in a police unit that deals with cold cases. The fourth season begins to unfurl with a peek into the lives of four suspects after a body is found in a scrap yard. Stuart and Khan discover they all have one thing in common: connections with the law. It’s probably the best season yet.

This week marks the halfway point of this enjoyable homegrown crime drama, which unabashedly taps into tropes and formulas. After all, there’s a reason why the disgraced ex-cop and eccentric private investigator are recurring characters; it is gratifying to immerse in the motivations and stories of those who step out of society. The scenic, unforgiving outback setting doesn’t hurt, either, adding another sense of otherness to the mystery. This week, ex-cop Ted (Thomas Jane), and PI with a shady past, Amanda (Nicole Chamoun, pictured) find their investigation getting more difficult, just as Ted receives some bombshell news.

The world feels like a crazy place at the moment. But if tuning into a series that helps you forget the headlines and news is a high priority, this American science fiction drama could be your remedy. Just beware: it’ll probably make your head spin. So far, the story of two families’ lives torn apart by a massive sinkhole in LA – which also happens to be a portal – has either frazzled or thrilled viewers. It’s so over the top and confusingly written that it’s a sure-fire distraction. Now, a super storm is causing chaos, while Gavin (Eoin Macken, pictured) embarks on a journey into his past, which might be the key to saving his family in the present.

Man’s best friend: Tony Armstrong delves into the science behind our canine companions for A Dog’s World.

Nominations now open for the 2022 Business Awards The Geelong Chamber of Commerce is proud to announce LBW Business + Wealth Advisors as the major sponsor of the 2022 Geelong Business Excellence Awards. LBW Business + Wealth Advisors are committed to supporting the Geelong business community and will be the sole major sponsor of the awards for the next three years. Geelong Chamber of Commerce chief executive Ben Flynn is once again thrilled to welcome LBW Business + Wealth Advisors on board as the awards’ major sponsor. “We are excited LBW Business + Wealth Advisors are continuing to support business excellence in our region,” Mr Flynn says.

‘‘

We have lots to celebrate about Geelong

’’

- Cathryn Walley “They are a successful business and they want to ensure other Geelong businesses continue to grow and prosper.” Nominations are now open for the prestigious Geelong Business Excellence Awards 2022, recognising the clever, creative and connected businesses in Geelong and the Bellarine, as well as the Surf Coast, Queenscliff and Golden Plains regions. LBW Business + Wealth Advisors associate principal Cathryn Walley is excited to be a part of the awards for yet another year. “We are thrilled to be sponsoring a program that puts the spotlight on our outstanding businesses and inspirational leaders by celebrating their success and sharing their incredible stories to inspire others,” Ms Walley says. “We have lots to celebrate about Geelong!” The awards celebrate business excellence across 20 categories targeting small, medium and large business from all industries including the manufacturing, hospitality, not-for-profit, health, financial services and more.

Businesses and leaders can self-nominate, or others can choose to nominate those they believe are positively contributing to the region. Nominations are now open at the Geelong Business Excellence Awards website. Visit www.gbea.com.au to nominate a business or find out more.

Be part of a star team The Geelong Independent and Ocean Grove Voice are looking for new staff members to join the team. With a strong community presence and a warm, welcoming work environment, the Independent and the Voice are now taking applications for new sales executive staff. Whether you are a recent university graduate or experienced ad rep, excellent people skills are required for the role, as staff will be liaising daily with clients face-to-face, over the phone and via email. To be successful in this role, applicants must be able to work autonomously and independently but also thrive in a team environment. With a base salary and ability to work towards commission, successful applicants will need to be able to achieve multiple KPIs, in both print and digital areas. Media and advertising veteran Jodie Pitfield is a well-regarded and much-loved sales executive at the Independent. It’s no coincidence that she started with the Independent on February 14 this year, as her love affair with her local community and its residents is as strong as ever. “There’s a real community feel to the Geelong Independent with strong reader loyalty towards the paper,” Jodie says. “I love how there’s versatility to cross-promote our other publications – the Ocean Grove Voice, Geelong Coast Kids, and Geelong Coast Home and Lifestyle magazines.” “We always feel supported across the entire group in Melbourne, and I love being able to pick up the phone or email a colleague for support or ideas.”

With a strong background in news and communications, Ocean Grove Voice sales executive Jack Stoney is proud of his workplace’s community values. “As a local to the area, it’s really nice to see how close-knit residents are and how they can really come together to support each other,” Jack says. “The Voice is all about telling the locals about local events and goings on in and around Ocean Grove and Barwon Heads.” Having worked for the business for six years, Jack is proudly involved with the community and local sport around the area. “Even though I work for the paper, I love reading the sports section for updates about local clubs and matches – it’s great for morale,” Jack says. Experience in the industry or field isn’t a prerequisite, but the ability to adapt to changing circumstances, work to deadlines and maintain discipline will fare exceptionally well for sales executives. Applicants must also have their driver’s license and reliable vehicle as well as effective written and oral communication skills. For more information on the role or to apply, email Star Weekly’s group advertising sales manager, Mandy Clark, at mandy.clark@ starnewsgroup.com.au.

A workshop trio in Geelong West keeps your car in the right hands. (Louisa Jones)

The specialists car lovers can count on Three enterprising experts in their field got together 15 years ago, opening the first of three side-by-side vehicle workshops in Geelong West, each catering to its specific European or British models. The newest workshop operates under the banner of Geelong West Automotive. This one specialises in Volvo, Peugeot, Renault, Citroen and Skoda. The German Automotive workshop is the Porsche, Mercedes-Benz, Audi and Volkswagen specialist. And the other, Hunter Cuthill, is all about Landrover, BMW and Mini Cooper. Current owners Adam Hunter, Ben Buckle, Mark Goodear and Adam Dres bring a combination of nearly 100 years’ experience working on all the major Euro brands – the sort of expertise highly valued by the drivers of out-of-the-ordinary vehicles.

All manner of mechanical, auto electrical and tyre replacement work is carried out by the high-tech workshops. Dealer-level diagnostic, repair and maintenance work are also on board, as is log book servicing that retains new car warranty. Ben says that the crews are well-equipped to look after just about everything needed to keep a car in tip-top shape, right from driving it new off the lot through to its senior years. “Not only do we have the world’s leading independent diagnostic software, but also all our technicians have received specific training on each brand,” explains Ben. “As well, we have all the special tools needed for repairs and servicing the luxury models. “We use the Hunter wheel alignment system, recommended for all major luxury and European vehicles.

TRIO OF INDEPENDENTLY OWNED WORKSHOPS SPECIALISING IN ALL EUROPEAN BRANDS

“Our tyre servicing equipment includes the Sice tyre changer, again recommended for most Euro vehicles. And to top it off, we’re still cheaper when compared to capped price servicing from dealers.” Loan cars are available for a small fee, and customers can book a service online.

Cats coach pleased with season By Ash Bolt Geelong ended its 2022 AFL Women’s season with an 18-point loss to the Greater Western Sydney Giants at GMHBA Stadium on Friday night, but coach Dan Lowther said he was pleased with the growth the club had shown throughout the year. Lowther and his new coaching team took over after a disastrous 2021 season where the Cats finished second last with one win from nine games. In his first season in charge, the Cats moved one spot up the ladder to 12th and finished with two wins from 10 games, but looked more competitive throughout the year. Lowther said despite the results the club was moving in a positive direction. “[We’ve had] a whole new list, new coaching staff, new approach to our program, which

have all been positive,” he said. “The first five or six weeks showed really good growth in our group and now it is about consistency and bringing those players along for the ride, making sure we stay the course and we buy into the change. “Now is about making sure we can complement our group with other elements that will keep us in games for longer periods and make us more consistent which we are confident can happen over the next six months now.” While their win-loss record was similar to 2021, the Cats were more competitive this season and doubled their percentage from 40.2 per cent to 80.4 per cent. Scoring was an issue in 2021 and the Cats increased their average score by six points in 2022, but the biggest improvement came defensively, with the their average score

conceded dropping from 45 points to 30. Following a disappointing loss to St Kilda where the Cats were kept goalless, it didn’t take long for Geelong to bounce back against the Giants, with Becky Webster kicking the first goal with 30 seconds. The Cats went on with Kate Darby and Phoebe McWilliams kicking two of the next three goals to take a 12-point lead halfway through the first quarter. However the Giants were more efficient with their forward entries and were able to kick three of the next four goals to get the margin back to one point at half time. Chloe Scheer extended the margin out to seven points early in the third term with her second goal, but it was all GWS from that point onward. The Cats were kept to just two more behinds as the Giants ran away with a 5.5 (35) to 8.5

(53) victory. Lowther said it was “disappointing” to see the Cats drop away after a strong first quarter. “We were really keen on getting some inside 50s this week and we did early … we had some really good passages of play in the first quarter in particular where we scored,” he said. “It was a good first quarter but then as we tend to do over the last couple of weeks, in the second quarter we started to fade away around our contest work and didn’t get the ball forward enough. “That was frustrating to watch, but I couldn’t fault their endeavour and fight throughout the game and again it came down to a last quarter tussle and then it was the experience of the Giants. “It was disappointing but we can see the wheels are in motion for us, which is positive.”

Cats lose Higgins after six seasons

Tom Stewart, Joel Selwood and Patrick Dangerfield.

(Geelong Cats)

Selwood to continue as captain Joel Selwood will lead Geelong for an eleventh season after the Cats announced a three-man leadership group at last week’s season launch. With 224 games as captain already to his name, Selwood is set to break former Blue Stephen Kernahan’s long-standing record of most VFL/AFL games as captain early in the 2022 season. He currently sits level with Dick Reynolds in second, just two games behind Kernahan’s 226. The 34-year-old said he had been “very lucky over a long period of time” and was looking forward to continuing to lead the Cats this year and potentially into the future. Selwood will be supported by co-vice captains Patrick Dangerfield, who has been in the role since 2017, and reigning Carji Medallist Tom Stewart, who has been elevated to the vice-captaincy for the first time. 24 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 18 March, 2022

Stewart will move into the role as deputy after 106 games and three All-Australian selections since being taken at the 2016 NAB AFL Draft. Stewart said he was proud to be selected as one of the club’s leaders for 2022. “It’s a very proud moment for myself and for my family,” he said. “The journey I’ve been on throughout my career, it’s always been something I’ve aspired to be – a leader of the footy club. “To have this title is fantastic but … it’s not just up to us three, we’re going to lean on a lot of blokes and utilise as many voices as we can.” Stewart said he hoped to lead by example on the field. “The best way I can lead is to play well,” he said. “That’s where I’m going to hang my hat to start – just go out there and compete and be the best player I can every week.

“I missed a pretty important part of the season last year so I’m really ready to get out [there] and be the best player I can for the club.” Geelong football general manager Simon Lloyd said the new slimline leadership structure is a reflection of the depth of leadership across the club’s playing list. “We are very fortunate to have a large group of exceptional leaders at the Geelong Football Club,” Lloyd said. “We pride ourselves on a whole of club approach to leadership and on nurturing and developing strong leaders right across the club and Joel, Patrick and Tom are a key part of this culture. “Our club is proud to have these individuals leading on field in 2022.” Ash Bolt

Foundation Geelong AFLW player Danielle Higgins has announced her retirement from the top level after six seasons at Geelong. A member of both Geelong’s inaugural VFLW and AFLW squads, Higgins played 24 AFLW games over the past four seasons. The crafty left-footer announced her retirement to teammates at training on Wednesday, saying the club had been like a second family to her over the journey. “I just want to say thank you to Geelong Footy Club for giving me this opportunity, and thank you to my family for their endless support,” Higgins said. “I said, ‘I’ll play one year’, and two VFLW years later and four AFLW, I’m just so honoured to have worn the hoops. “I grew up as a Geelong supporter, sitting out there with dad in the Past Players [Stand] and with my brothers and sister watching footy. “To just think that I’ve had this opportunity to represent my hometown is pretty amazing, and being a Geelong supporter [has made it even more special]. “It’s a massive honour, and I just want to say thank you. Being part of the inaugural VFLW and AFLW teams is something I will always cherish. “I’m looking forward to cheering our team on from the sidelines … we have some very talented players and we are only going to get better and better.” Geelong head of AFLW Brett Johnson thanked Higgins for her service to the club. “Danielle’s commitment and energy around the club has played a significant role in building the bonds and identity of our group in its formative years,” Johnson said. “She has been a well-respected member of our playing group, and we are grateful for her contributions on and off the field. “We thank Danielle for all she has given the Geelong Football Club, and look forward to seeing her continue to take the field with our VFLW side this season.” Higgins said she planned to pull on the hoops a few more times for the Cats’ VFLW side, and will hang up the boots at the end of the 2022 VFLW season.

Surf Coast teams in grand final By Justin Flynn It may be called the Bellarine Peninsula Cricket Association, but it will be an all Surf Coast A1 Grade final at Inverleigh tomorrow. The competition’s benchmark, Anglesea, takes on Jan Juc for the second consecutive season and although the two clubs are rivals, there is a lot of mutual respect. “We get on really well,” Anglesea skipper Ned Cooper said. “We’ve been the top two sides the last two years and played off in the granny last year. Once we cross the line on the field, there’s no love lost, but we definitely get along well after the game and when we cross paths socially.” Jan Juc captain Jordy Graham said: “I like the way they go about it. “They’re not your mates when you’re out there, they’re tough but they are the first ones to put it all aside once it’s finished. “They beat us last year and they all put their medals away and came straight in and had a beer with us.” Jan Juc will be without punishing opener Iva

Priest, who will attend his brother’s wedding. Mark Zahra will take his place. Anglesea will take the same XI that thrashed Ocean Grove in the semi final. The unbeaten Seas will head into the game as overwhelming favourites, but Cooper said that didn’t mean there won’t be nerves. “Anyone who has played in a grand final is going to be nervous and if you’re not, then there’s probably something wrong,” he said. “It’s just about going back to what we’ve done throughout the season and hopefully we can execute that and come away with the chocolates.” Graham conceded favouritism, but also said most of the pressure will be on Anglesea. “They will go in expecting to win and their crowd and supporters expect them to win,” he said. “We’re going in with the attitude that we have nothing to lose and we’ll throw our best shot at them and hopefully it comes off.” The A2 Grade final will be fought out between Drysdale and Armstrong Creek at Collendina. The winner will earn promotion to A1 Grade next season.

Anglesea captain Ned Cooper said despite his side being unebaten all season, there will be nerves before the BPCA A1 Grade final. (Justin Flynn) 265744_13

Top Geelong cricketers to represent state

The best carriage drivers crowned More than 50 carriage drivers from across Victoria, New South Wales, South Australia and Tasmania converged on the region over the long weekend for the 2022 Victorian Combined Driving Championships. Geelong and District Carriage Drivers hosted the championships at the Leighdale Equestrian Centre in Teesdale from Saturday, March 12 to Monday, March 14, bringing together the best carriage drivers from south-east Australia. Combined driving is carriage driving’s answer to eventing and is comprised of three sections – dressage; the marathon, including roads and tracks and obstacles in lieu of jumps; and cones, the equivalent of showjumping. Competition started on Saturday with the dressage events, where riders were required to display control over their horses through

voice, whip and reins. The best novice dressage test was by Rodney Lane driving Duckponds Lucy Van Pelt, while the best intermediate dressage test was by Dawn Walter driving Naringalook Monty. The main event of the day, the best open dressage test was taken out by Michelle Jones driving Lucy, while Rachel Haslau, driving a pair of ponies, took out the best multiple dressage test. Sunday was marathon day, with the course at Leighdale Equestrian Centre taking drivers on surrounding roads and through beautiful Australian bush tracks. The course was set with almost all obstacles surrounding a large spectator viewing area, so spectators were fortunate to be able to watch the action up close. The best novice marathon was again driven

by Rodney Lane driving Duckponds Lucy Van Pelt, while Lyn Callighan took out the best open/intermediate marathon driving Shepherds Hill Denis. Rachel Haslau took her second win of the weekend driving a pair of pones for the best multiple marathon. The storm on Sunday night settled the dust on the arena that was set for the cones course on Monday. The course was a challenge and only five double clear rounds were achieved for the day. Overall winners for the weekend included Kerry Winters and Jestames Hollogram, Rodney Lane and Duckponds Lucy Van Pelt, David Cockroft and Eddy, Dawn Walter and Naringalook Monty, Vicki Stevenson and Naringalook Tim Tam, and Lyn Callaghan and Shepherds Hill Denis.

Seven young Geelong cricketers have been picked to represent the state at the under-19 national championships. Geelong Cricket Club stars Bronte Leishman, Josh Garner, Liam Blackford, Tom Scott and Vincent Huf have all been picked to represent Victoria Country. Armstrong Creek Cricket Club’s Grace Jones and Geelong City Cricket Club’s Paris Bowdler have also been selected in the squad. Geelong Cricket Club coach Nick Speak will also coach the boys’ Victorian Country squad with the help of Victorian contracted player Xavier Crone as assistant coach. The female tournament will be held in Adelaide from April 7-14, while the male tournament will be held simultaneously in Queensland. For Garner the national championships will be the second major tournament of the summer, after representing Australia at the ICC Under-19 Cricket World Cup in the Caribbean in January. Garner played three games in the green and gold, taking three wickets and making 16 runs. The fast bowler has also played nine Premier Cricket firsts games for the Cats this season, taking 13 wickets at an average of 24.69. Cricket Victoria emerging player performance manager Tom Evans said the players were part of a “very exciting” squad representing Victoria. “It will be a great opportunity for these players to showcase their skills,” he said. “Unfortunately, this age group have had limited interstate exposure over the last couple of years due to the COVID-19 pandemic, so I’m sure they are all looking forward to representing Victoria and going head-to-head with best under 19 players around Australia. “With the National Championships moved to April it has been great to see players play a full season of Victorian Premier Cricket, along with our training program and trial games to put their name forward for selection.” Ash Bolt

Pink take over top spot LOCAL TENNIS

Donna Schoenmaekers The completion of round seven in the midweek ladies’ competition this week took them to the halfway mark of the season, and though the weather wasn’t great, most matches were completed. Section 1 saw one of its three matches abandoned due to the weather and this result, along with the two lopsided results in the other matches, saw changes to the positions on the ladder. Top-placed Moriac tried to continue its good run this season against Geelong Lawn White, however the weather was not on its side, with play abandoned at one set all. With the matched tied, and Geelong Lawn Pink taking a good win over Surfcoast Bellbrae, Moriac dropped to second, three points behind Pink. It was a drizzly morning in Bellbrae where Surfcoast took on Pink. The home team started slow, going down in the first two sets 6-4, 6-3. For Pink, Georgie Parker served some

rockets into the corners of the service box and Annette Morgan returned well, and proved too good even for Kristie Walter’s perfect technique and Robyn Baxter hitting some lively shots in her debut for Bellbrae. Things got a bit tighter in the middle sets with Pink fighting hard to take them in a tie-break and 6-4. Bridget Laird blasted some fantastic winners

for Pink in the third set, while Jennie Prince’s classic net play wasn’t quite enough to get Bellbrae over the line. Miyo Fallshaw and Baxter tried hard to take the fourth for Bellbrae, but the pairing of Parker with Kerry Fatone for Pink proved too strong. The final two sets also went the way of Pink 6-3, 6-1 giving it a clean sweep for the day, and the full points pushing the team into top spot on the ladder. The final match of the round was between Surfcoast Torquay and Point Lonsdale, which went five sets to one to Torquay. Unfortunately Point Lonsdale was a player short, meaning that three of the sets went to Torquay uncontested. The Lonny girls weren’t completely out of the picture on the day with Val Wilson and Kerry Winton taking the first set 6-3, however, Torquay won the remaining two sets, with Michelle McKenzie taking both her sets for the day. At the end of the day, the two Surfcoast teams traded places on the ladder at third and fourth.

The Head of the Schoolgirls Regatta will be held this weekend. (Supplied)

Major regatta to round out season A big season of schoolgirl rowing on the Barwon River is set to culminate this weekend with the Head of the Schoolgirls Regatta. More than 2200 schoolgirls from 45 schools across the state will flock to Geelong for the three-day regatta from Friday, March 18 to Sunday, March 20 to compete in 51 events on the river. Rowing Geelong president Sam Elliott said he was pleased to see numbers up from last year and looking forward to having a full crowd back along the banks of the Barwon River. “Whilst numbers have been down across the board for rowing as a sport throughout and post-COVID, we’ve enjoyed somewhat of a resurgence here in Geelong,” he said. “All our regattas this season have attracted 26 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 18 March, 2022

more competitors than last. “If you ask anyone around rowing, they’ll tell you they love coming down to Geelong to compete on the Barwon River. We have a safe and fair course and spectators love being able to view the racing the length of the course from both banks.” The regatta has been held on the Barwon River since 1987 and injects about $2.5 million into the local economy each year, with the organising committee committed to hosting the event in Geelong until at least 2024. In the main races, the female school eight open division one will be hotly contested between Melbourne schools’ St Catherine’s School, Melbourne Girls Grammar School and Wesley College.

Kardinia International College looks to be in with a good chance in the female school quad scull open division one while Geelong College rower Issy Batrouney is a favourite to take out the female school single open division one. Racing will start at 8am on Friday and finish with the final of the female school eight open division one about 4pm on Sunday. There will be some traffic management changes over the weekend to ensure safety, with Victoria Police sharing on social media a section of Barrabool Road between Quarry Close and High Street, Belmont would be closed to eastbound traffic from 7am-6pm on Saturday and 6.30am-5.30pm on Sunday.

Waterfront producing top fishing ON THE BITE

Peri Stavropoulos The inner harbour of Corio Bay fished quite well over the long weekend with plenty of reports coming through of the Geelong Waterfront starting to produce some top fishing. Around the moored boats has been super productive with reports of anglers catching pinky snapper, salmon, flathead and trevally. Casting soft plastics such as Z-Man slim swimz have been by far the top tactic for undoing a few fish around there at the moment. The Bellarine Peninsula has been of fire as of late with King George whiting reports going strong with the east side of Clifton Springs proving to be an absolute hot spot. Fishing anywhere between four to six metres with the runout tide and fresh squid or pipis as bait has been lethal with bag limit captures on offer and fish up and over 40cm thrown into the mix. A bit of burley definitely helps with the aid of a burley pot on the bottom. There’s some seriously good fishing on offer at the moment down there so get on it. Calamari have been in great numbers along the Peninsula as well and in similar areas to the whiting, just in a bit shallower water. Lime green squid jigs have been a standout in size 3.0. Offshore Barwon Heads is still producing plenty of tuna reports, and although they were a bit slow over the weekend the days either side of it fished very well. Trolling diving and skirted lures proved yet again to be very productive, nomad DTX minnows yet again proving their weight in gold. When the fish have been seen cruising or busting on the top, casting topwater lures into them has been working very well. Maria Loadeds and Nomad Riptides have been standouts for this. The bottom fishing off Barwon Heads has also fired up a bit over the past week with gummy sharks starting to show up in good numbers with Gone Fishing Charters getting stuck into quite a few. Either anchored or drifting anywhere between 30-50 metres has been quite productive. Fresh baits such squid and salmon have been the best baits so far.
