Big Freeze fun for MND By Justin Flynn Local celebrities will brave the ice slide on Saturday, June 4 for Geelong’s very own Big Freeze. Similar to the Big Freeze before the Melbourne and Collingwood game at the MCG every Queen’s Birthday, Drysdale will be the epicentre for the fight against MND. Celebs will dress up in full costume and take the plunge into the icy depths at 1.30pm just before Drysdale’s clash against rivals

Portarlington. Drysdale player James Breust is Neale Daniher’s nephew. Neale has been the driving force behind the Big Freeze and has inspired so many people. “My mum is one of the 11 Daniher siblings, including uncle Neale, and so MND is very close to our family,” James said. “Since Neale’s diagnosis over nine years ago, the FightMND army has grown into the incredible support base we have today. “I am extremely honoured to represent

the inaugural Geelong Big Freeze this year. The support for the event has already been amazing. “I’m so excited to witness a sea of blue beanies at the Hawks’ nest and I’m confident this great event will become a yearly tradition.” Due to his playing commitments in the main game, James won’t be sliding this year, but said the volunteer sliders, which include Taxiride’s Jason Singh and North Melbourne AFLW player and local Drysdale product Tess

Craven, have been wonderful. “I’m so proud of each of the sliders this year and can’t wait to see what costumes they come up with,” he said. “My advice would be to hold on tight and make sure you go all the way under the ice for maximum refreshment.” Drysdale’s Big Freeze is at Mortimer Oval, Drysdale. At the time of writing, the event had already raised more than $27,000. Details: hub.fightmnd.org.au/ diy-big-freeze-8/big-freeze-geelong.

Care packs for rough sleepers People who are ‘sleeping rough’ in the Geelong region will receive care packs that contain essential items. The City of Greater Geelong has partnered with Community Care Chemist to provide an estimated 300 packs, each containing five standard items such as toiletries, along with a selection of other products tailored to suit the individual’s needs. Rough sleeping refers to people who live on the streets, and who often sleep in places that are not designed to be slept in, including building doorways, bus-shelters, parks, under-passes, cars and carparks. Rough sleepers often do not have a place to live, or a place to call home. The city will provide $15,000 towards the

provision of the care packs that will come in a bum bag for those requiring assistance.

The provision of care packs forms an early step as the city continues to work with agencies such as NEAMI Towards home+ Geelong, Lazarus House, The Salvation Army, Barwon Children and Youth and Family (BCYF), to learn how it can best support people sleeping rough in the municipality. Social Housing Advisory Committee and Community Health and Aged Care portfolio chair, Cr Sarah Mansfield, said the initiative was consistent with the city’s objective to see all members of the community treated with dignity and respect. “There are many, often complex reasons why a person may end up living on the streets, whether that be financial stress, including job loss and gambling, housing affordability and

Basketball court for the waterfront The state government will spend $400,000 to build an outdoor basketball court at Geelong’s waterfront. The funding is part of the 2022-23 Victorian budget and will include the court, as well as lighting and fencing. Extensive consultation was undertaken as part of a Regional Youth Strategy to determine priorities for young people in the region. Geelong MP Christine Couzens said young

people made it clear that building more recreational facilities in central Geelong would be a significant step in encouraging outdoor activities and building a sense of community. Students from high school, university and TAFE, as well as sporting clubs, LGBTIQ+ groups and First Nations groups took part in developing the Youth Strategy in early 2022.

In total, close to 200 young people across Geelong participated in the consultation. “Young people in Geelong told me building more recreational facilities was a priority for them,” Ms Couzens said. “That’s why we’re getting on and building a basketball court at the Geelong waterfront. “This facility will give young people in Geelong the space they need to stay active and healthy.”

If you are 25 years old or older, contact The Salvation Army Homelessness Barwon on 5223 5400. If you are under 25, contact Barwon Child Youth & Family on 5226 8900. If you are concerned about someone who is sleeping rough contact NEAMI on 1300 050 093.

New gym for all abilities A Grovedale gym that caters for the over 50s and all abilities people has opened. DASH – Disability, Ageing and Specialised Health – specialises in catering to gym goers who have special needs. “One of our directors lives with Multiple Sclerosis and has complex needs herself, so knows first hand what is needed to make our health facility user friendly to people of all abilities,” DASH’s Tony Rankin said. “We are able to support people of all abilities through our qualified trainers and expertise, two of our directors are in their mid-70s themselves and are well respected for their friendly and understanding knowledge and customer service they provide.” Mr Rankin said DASH is not set up like other gyms. “Our lighting is gentle and we are mainly free of mirrors and set our equipment up so it’s not facing other gym users,” he said. “Our facilities are completely flat – no stairs or elevators – and most importantly our directors come from aged, youth and disabilities qualified background so understand the complex needs associated with the members. “We have many members in their senior years who have already started to benefit from their memberships to regain their health and stay in their own homes safely living independently and they couldn’t recommend highly enough and encourage others to follow in their footsteps even if it is daunting initially.”

Flu vax for you and me, for free Greater Geelong residents are now eligible to receive their annual flu shot for free after flu cases in the state rose over 30 per cent in just one week. The COVID-19 pandemic has led to a reduced immunity to common viruses including influenza, with flu cases statewide rising from 10,000 to 15,000 in Victoria during the last week of May. The vaccine is already free for children aged under five, people aged over 65, pregnant women, people with increased-risk medical conditions and Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. The state government initiative will

- Martin Foley reimburse GPs and community pharmacies for influenza vaccines administered to people not usually eligible for a free vaccine. Immunisation providers will also be offered $2000 grants to assist in managing additional demand, including the costs of rostering more

staff and extending opening hours. More than 3000 Victorian GPs and community pharmacies have been invited to take part under a $33 million package, aimed at boosting vaccination coverage and avoiding more hospitalisations during winter. “This will be the first time in two years that we will face a real flu season – we need all Victorians to roll up their sleeves and help protect their loved ones and our health system by getting vaccinated,” Health Minister Martin Foley said. With no interval required between receiving the flu and COVID vaccines, Victorians are encouraged to ensure their

vaccinations, both influenza and COVID, are up to date for the winter season. “Victorians really took up the call to arms when it came to COVID-19 vaccinations, and we know they can do it again – so we’re removing as many barriers as possible to help boost vaccine coverage,” Mr Foley said. “Help your family stay safe this winter by getting vaccinated for both the flu and COVID-19, getting tested if you have any symptoms and staying home while unwell.” Victorians can book their free flu vaccines by contacting their local GP or community pharmacy.

Recovery help welcome “With recovery becoming such an important part of the routine, to have a session with Therabody and have won some of their devices is fantastic. “No matter what level, it’s always important to find ways to achieve those additional one-percenters, and what Therabody have provided will be a great help to achieve those for South Barwon.”

It involved a sausage sizzle put on for the club with recovery sessions run with the junior boys, senior men’s, senior women’s and netball teams. After the session, the club was left with $7249 worth of product to help with their future recovery needs and ensure they can perform at their best in the Geelong Football Netball League. South Barwon Football Netball Club president Tim Sherman said the event was very worthwhile. “After a tough couple of years, it’s great to be getting back into footy, and to feel the energy it brings within the community,” he said.

Locals urged to dig deep Barwon Health Foundation’s Giving Month kicked off on June 1, encouraging the community to donate, fundraise or volunteer to support its health service. The generosity of Geelong has inspired the expansion of the much-loved annual appeal, growing the foundation’s traditional Giving Weekend on the final weekend of June, into an entire month. The goal is to raise $300,000 for Barwon Health this June. Funds raised will support Project North, a $2.5 million appeal to close the region’s health gap, or a nominated area that is close to the heart of those who donate.

Branding for a better Geelong People across Australia will be able to discover what makes Geelong greater as part of a new unified place brand to attract migrants, businesses, students, and tourists to the region. The new brand, ‘Greater Geelong, Greater Australian Stories,’ launched on Friday, June 2 and is backed by 16 leading local organisations, known collectively as the Vision Partner Group. The group provides leadership in the implementation of the community-led 30-year vision for the Greater Geelong region to be internationally recognised as clever and creative. Visual and digital assets form the backbone of the new brand, harnessing the unique qualities of our region to create a lasting, recognisable image and narrative in the hearts and minds of its global audiences. Another key element to drive awareness of the brand are the greater Australian stories of people making the ‘G-change’ and choosing Greater Geelong as a destination to live, work, invest, study and visit. Stories include TV chef Simon Toohey, who has recently relocated to Newcomb with his partner, and Aayushree Kharel, a Nepalese student who has completed a masters in biotechnology and bioinformatics and is a current PhD candidate at Deakin University. The brand also raises awareness of the traditional Aboriginal name for Geelong, Djilang, which means a ‘tongue of land’ in Wadawurrung language.

New car joins the fleet It will become easier for young people to learn to drive and get their driver’s licence in Geelong’s north thanks to the addition of a new vehicle for the TAC L2P Program. The TAC L2P Program pairs voluntary supervising drivers with learners under 21 years of age, who do not have access to a supervising driver or vehicle, to gain the 120 hours driving experience required to apply for a probationary licence. The program vehicles cover central Geelong, Corio, Grovedale and Portarlington, however the provision of a second vehicle in Geelong’s northern suburbs – by Community Bank, Lara District – will increase access to the program for young people living in Lara.

The additional vehicle will also reduce the long wait time experienced by learner drivers living in the suburb, which accounts for more than 40 per cent of Geelong’s total referrals. Deputy mayor Trent Sullivan welcomed the announcement, recognising the benefit the addition would have to the young people of Geelong’s north. “Road safety and good driving habits are something that the whole community benefits from and it’s pleasing to see the results achieved by the Geelong TAC L2P Program to date,” Cr Sullivan said. “For many young people, gaining the 120 hours of supervised driving that’s required is easy, but for others it can be a real challenge. “Some young people don’t have access to a

Go on an insect scavenger hunt: create a checklist of insect pictures of the bugs and other critters found in your backyard. Go outside with the kids and a magnifying glass and teach them about the little beasties around your home. Build a little veggie garden: Pick up a small garden bed from your local hardware store, along with enough bags of soil, manure and other products to fill it. Plant some easy veggie seedlings and use some icy pole sticks to write the name of the plants in the garden. Not only will these activities keep your kids entertained and happy for some time over the holidays, they will also benefit the planet! Originally published on www.realestate view. com.au.

Glenn Davey has been in the government education system for almost 50 years - 20 of those years as a principal and the last 10 years as principal at Geelong High School. According to Mr Davey, the challenges faced by teachers and support staff in the first 40 years of his career pale in significance compared with the challenges of these last few years. Parents and families are looking to schools to provide support for their children’s learning and wellbeing, in equal parts. The growing inequity in our society has compounded these challenges, according to Mr Davey. As inclusive establishments, government schools play a valuable and unique role in addressing these inequities. “At Geelong High School, we are proud of the fact that regardless of family circumstances, students get a high quality education. We have outstanding teachers who deliver a high-quality learning program that is differentiated to the students’ points of need,” Mr Davey says.

Surf Coast Secondary College

Erin Wright has been the Principal of Surf Coast SC since 2020; having stepped up from the Assistant Principal role at the College to assume leadership as principal during a very challenging time for us all. Since Surf Coast Secondary College opened its doors in 2012, we have focused on shaping and maintaining a culture where all members of our community are positive, supportive, kind and open minded. I am proud to be the principal of this wonderful school where we support the young people in our community to challenge themselves to grow not only in their learning, but also to develop a well-rounded sense of self and the world that they live in. We are so lucky to be situated in the wonderful Surf Coast Shire in Torquay. Being active and positive contributors to our community is important, and a large part of that is developing an appreciation for diversity. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive school community where ALL young people are welcomed, accepted, supported and included.

O’Neill’s a passionate storyteller On Monday, Ellie O’Neill released her fourth book, ‘Family Matters’. The Highton resident spoke with Laura Michell about her passion for creating characters and their stories.

riting is not something that comes easily to Ellie O’Neill. While the Highton author released her fourth book this week, and is busy working on her fifth, she freely admits that she finds writing a bit “tricky”. “I thought by now, with my experience, I would be able to just kind of crank it out, but not a chance; this is really tricky!” Yet, O’Neill can’t imagine doing anything else. “I find writing kind … of good for me. I feel good when I am writing,” she explains. “I can’t imagine not writing and not worrying over characters and storylines because it is so brilliant to be able to create these worlds and these people and these stories. “It’s fun”. An avid reader as a child, O’Neill didn’t set out to become an author, starting her working life in advertising. But a desire to do something different set her on the path to becoming a published author. “I was in London and I was working in advertising and I was feeling a bit burnt out actually,” O’Neill recalls.

‘‘

I’ve had this character in my head ... she was following me around – like literally talking to me

’’

- Ellie O’Neill “I couldn’t see my career, like I couldn’t see myself working in an office for indefinitely, and I thought, ‘I have to do something different’. “I’ve always wanted to write, so I kind of just pulled the pin – but I could at the time, I was single and I didn’t have any commitments really – and I moved back to Dublin, and moved in with my parents, and pulled up my laptop and just started working on my idea I kind of had. “But I didn’t have any experience writing, not really, not the way some people do. I just wanted to do it. I wanted to try and see if I could do it. “Did I think I would write four books? Not a chance – I can’t believe I’m here and I’m working on a fifth.” O’Neill’s latest book, ‘Family Matters’ was released on Monday, May 31. ‘Family Matters’ tells the story of Evie McCarthy, her daughter and granddaughters, who discover that sometimes life is entirely different to what they’d dreamed it would be. O’Neill says the character Evie was inadvertently the catalyst for the story. “I was writing my previous book, which is called ‘The Right Girl’, which is a story around an app. I came across a lot of research around matchmaking because I was looking up stuff about Tinder and all the algorithms for matching people; it is really quite amazing that they have to down to a science because falling in love is so magical,” she says. “I thought that was really interesting and so I was kind of playing around with what I could do with matchmaking in terms of a story. “And then, I’ve had this character in my head for a couple of years who is my matriarch, called Evie McCarthy, and she was following me around – like literally talking to me – and I felt like if I just sit down and write Evie, I can get rid of her and I can park her somewhere else. “So I started writing about Evie, and as I was doing that, she introduced me to her daughter and she introduced me to her granddaughters, and one of the granddaughters was working on a matchmaking app, and then it turned out that Evie was a matchmaker. She’s an old-fashioned matchmaker. 10 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 3 June, 2022

“In Ireland there is a tradition of matchmakers that ended in the 1950s but I brought it back for Evie.” O’Neill says ‘Family Matters’ took longer to write than her other books, thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, the book proved to be a welcome distraction from the reality of Victoria’s 2020 lockdowns. “I finished the first draft just before COVID and lockdown started,” she says. “Then when COVID hit … I kind of froze and creatively I froze as well. All that load came in where I was working and I was homeschooling, and all of that anxiety and fear and everything else that everybody else was experiencing, and I put the book on hold … I didn’t go back to it for quite a while. “I started dipping in and out of it again, editing and rewriting, and it was a great escape, I have to say, and I found it really useful to run away from masks and viruses and illness, that felt really nice. “It was probably another year before I even sent it to my agent … this [book] took a lot longer [to write] because our friend COVID came to visit.” While O’Neill hails from Ireland, she has lived in Geelong for the past 10 years, after

moving to Australia for love. “I guess if you are going to move across the world for some reason, it may as well be love,” she says. However, her homeland continues to feature prominently in her work.

“Most of my books – not all, but most of them – lean on some sort of Irish tradition or Irish folklore and that’s just the way the stories have evolved for me,” she says. “I don’t really know why I set them all in ireland, it’s just happening that way for me.”

I did all of my schooling here – Tate Street Primary School and Geelong High. I completed year 11. My husband and I had three hairdressing salons – Styleway and after a number of years we both became TAFE teachers and I taught for 18 years at the Gordon Hairdressing Department. What do you like about where you live? I love to be on the coast, love the sea breezes, and it’s a great place for schooling our three children. What, if anything, would you change about where you live? It makes me so sad to see our city as it is, empty shops everywhere. I can nearly shed tears over the state of my home town.

COMMENT

Bob’s farm delivers the goods I was lucky to have been asked to help assist a new volunteer for Birdlife Australia’s Birds on Farms program, so I had an extra visit to Bob’s farm in Wallington. It was a very fresh morning and it was quiet on the farm until the sun came out, and then there was more avian activity. We saw a pair of black swans building a nest on the wetlands. Black swans breed all year around and the newly hatched cygnets must feel the cold when they emerge from the eggs in the winter months. It was lovely to see good numbers of weebills, flame robins, striated pardalotes and red-browed finches. There was also a pair of brown falcons calling to each other. On my way to work one day I called past Hospital Swamp, Connewarre. There was a pile of rubbish dumped at the end of Baenschs Lane, which didn’t thrill me, and then a duck shooter drove down the lane to commence shooting, which caused me to quickly leave the area. I am so sad that ducks are shot in the name of sport. It’s so barbaric and cruel. I managed a quick photo of a welcome swallow on the fence on the side of Baenschs Lane. Welcome swallows are blue-black above, light grey below on the breast and belly and they have a rusty coloured forehead, throat and upper breast. They have a long-forked tail which is slightly shorter in the female. These birds are expert fliers, and they love following moving objects

like cars, which always makes me nervous that I’m going to run into one, but they have great evasive skills. I always notice quite a few welcome swallow nests under shop canopies in The Terrace in Ocean Grove. These birds build a small cup nest made of mud and grass. I received an email from Kevin, who ventured to Queenscliff to look for some coastal birds, but only found the usual pelicans, swans, silver gulls, white-faced herons, cormorants and egrets. However, while surveying the Swan Bay scene, a juvenile grey butcherbird perched

obligingly right in front of Kevin, and he took a lovely photo. Butcherbirds get their name from the way they hang their prey off a branch or tree fork to consume it later. They have a hook at the end of their beak which is very obvious in Kevin’s photo. I received an email from Carole, who has recently been out and about but must admit that despite going down the Great Ocean Road and travelling far afield she hadn’t noticed many different birds. Carole went on a walk with the Birdlife Bellarine Peninsula walk at the Ocean Grove Nature Reserve and did not see a great variety

of birds there. Carole did send me some photos of masked lapwings that reveal the very obvious wing spurs. I received an email from former Ocean Grove resident and fantastic bird photographer Denis Sleep, who sent me some photos of endangered swift parrots that were hanging around his neighbourhood in Bendigo. I also received an email from Lee, who took some lovely photos of around 20 yellow-tailed black cockatoos that were feeding in two Banksia trees at Collendina Reserve in Ocean Grove.

Emergency surgery saves an injured flying fox

Werribee Open Range Zoo’s team of expert veterinarians has performed life-saving surgery to help one of Australia’s most precious wild animals return to the night skies. A Grey-headed flying fox was returned to its Geelong home last month, after becoming entangled and breaking its wing in old fruit tree netting in January. The flying fox underwent two critical life-saving operations and spent time rehabilitating with a wildlife carer during its three-month recovery. Werribee Open Range Zoo associate veterinarian Dr Paul Eden said the animal’s condition was precarious when first found. “Flying foxes are highly dependent on their wings for many purposes,” Dr Eden said. “They can fly an astonishing 6,000km in a year to search for food and pollinate a wide range of plants, supporting ecosystems such as entire eucalypt forests, an important habitat for animals like koalas and possums. They also use their wings to help capture insects, regulate body temperature, and attract other flying-foxes during mating season. So, it was extremely important that we did everything we could to help this animal make a full recovery.” To assist with the recovery process, vets operated to remove some of the damaged wing tissue and administered antibiotics and pain relief. Following the successful procedure, the flying fox was transferred to the wildlife carer

to prepare it for release back into the wild. Dr Eden said it was extremely rewarding to see the flying fox return to full heath and safely returned to the wild as the species has a critical role in Australia’s ecosystem, supporting both animal and human life. “Our ecosystem would be dramatically different, or cease to exist altogether, without flying foxes. If we don’t have flying foxes, we don’t have forests, if we don’t have forests, we don’t have as much oxygen supply. They are

(Zoos Victoria)

critical to our survival.” Dr Eden said there are some simple actions that people can take to keep flying foxes safe. “We can greatly reduce the risk of entanglements by using nets with a mesh size of five-by-five millimetres or less at full stretch for fruit-trees or vegetable gardens. If you encounter a flying fox that is sick or in distress, for the safety of everyone, don’t attempt to rescue the animal yourself. Instead, contact Wildlife Victoria who will deploy a

trained officer to rescue the animal.” Grey-headed flying foxes are classified as vulnerable in the wild, with their population declining due to a reduction in food availability from the destruction of native habitat and impacts of climate change, particularly extreme heat, drought, and fires. Zoos Victoria members and Werribee Open Range Zoo visitors are reminded that all tickets must be pre-booked online at zoo.org.au. Friday, 3 June, 2022 GEELONG INDEPENDENT 13

Have a say on new sports vision By Justin Flynn Ocean Grove based sporting clubs are being asked to provide feedback to the City of Greater Geelong on a infrastructure plan that aims to provide long-term solutions for sport in Ocean Grove and Wallington. A six-week consultation period began on May 30 for the Ocean Grove Sporting Infrastructure Plan, which is a renewal of the 2010 plan and aims to provide a new vision for the suite of reserves in and around Ocean Grove for the next 10 years. The draft plan considers the sporting and

recreation activities conducted at six reserves: Arthur Powell Reserve, Collendina Reserve, Devlins Road Reserve, Memorial Reserve, Shell Road Reserve and Wallington Reserve. The plan includes the relocation of Surfside Waves Soccer Club from Shell Road to Devlins Road Reserve and the existing soccer pitches to be turned into an Australian Rules and cricket ground to be used as a second ground for the football and cricket clubs. Memorial Reserve’s facilities would also be upgraded as would Wallington Recreation Reserve’s. Collendina Recreation Reserve would have

a new access road and car park and a pavilion upgrade, however new Collendina Cricket Club president Neale Walter said the draft had no consideration for a suitable second oval for its lower grade teams. Currently, Collendina’s lower grade teams play at Ocean Grove’s Bellarine Secondary College, which Walter said was inadequate. “The surface is good there, but the facilities are nonexistent,” he said. “There’s no shade, the rooms and toilets are tiny, you have to drive through the school to park and then you’re parking near or on the basketball courts.” Walter said the club would consider using

Memorial Reserve as a second ground if it was offered. “We would definitely look at it providing the amenities are upgraded sufficiently to include men’s and women’s teams,” he said. “Our junior program is massive and our women’s program is growing each year. “It’s just disappointing that there has been no consideration for us for a second ground. Wallington have one (at Devlin’s Road), but we seem to have been forgotten.” Details: yoursay.geelongaustralia.com.au/

Funds for water quality The Jan Juc Daylighting project stage two received a $700,000 state government investment from the 2022-23 Victorian Budget. The project will clean up stormwater that flows into the creek from the surrounding urban areas before it flows out to the beach. South Barwon MP Darren Cheeseman made the announcement on Monday, May 30 at Jan Juc Creek, at the site of stage one of the Daylighting project, which has already been completed. The works will involve removing an old, low-flow drainage pipe, as well as constructing a wetland and sediment basin that will improve water quality. The project builds on previous work done by Surf Coast Shire to restore a 250 metre section of Jan Juc Creek, which included decommissioning and modifying the existing underground drainage, reshaping creek banks and revegetating the area with indigenous

planting thousands of plants indigenous to the area. The Jan Juc Daylighting project was identified through the Barwon Integrated Water Management (IWM) Forum and the Barwon Regional Partnership to support greater use of stormwater and improve waterway health in a way that creates economic, social and ecological benefits. “Better managing stormwater flows into our waterways through an integrated water management approach is vital to preserve habitat for flora and fauna, as well as improving amenity for the local community,” Water Minister Lisa Neville said. Mr Cheeseman said: “This funding for the Jan Jac Creek Daylighting Project will continue the work to improve the overall health of this local waterway that locals and visitors love”.

The Guide THE ORVILLE SBS Viceland, Friday, 8.30pm

PICK OF THE WEEK

Nearly three years since the crew of starship USS Orville graced screens, it returns from the depths of a black hole (cancellation) with a new zest for space travel – and a subtitle. Officially and somewhat aptly titled The Orville: New Horizons, the Seth MacFarlane (pictured) comedy-drama creation inspired by Star Trek is back bigger and flashier than ever. Returning with MacFarlane are stars Adrianne Palicki and Scott Grimes, along with new faces, including Anne Winters (13 Reasons Why) and Bruce Boxleitner (Supergirl). CHRIS TARRANT’S EXTREME RAILWAY JOURNEYS 7TWO, Sunday, 9.30pm

While he lacks the refinement of his train-travelling counterparts Michael Portillo and Michael Palin, Former UK Who Wants to be a Millionaire? presenter Chris Tarrant’s (pictured) wisecracking perspective is entertaining, if not always enlightening. In this week’s episode, the boorish Brit is in Ukraine, on a now-poignant journey. Filmed in 2019 before the pandemic and Russian invasion, Tarrant explores the war-torn, nuclear-damaged country’s massive 20,921km rail network. ITHAKA: A FIGHT TO FREE JULIAN ASSANGE ABC TV, Tuesday, 8.30pm

KIM’S CONVENIENCE SBS Viceland, Monday, 9.25pm

Sweet and hilarious, this Canadian comedy following the Kim family is a treat. If you covet a heartfelt and funny series in the vein of writer Benjamin’s Law’s The Family Law – which explored the immigrant experience with lashings of humour – Kim’s Convenience will not disappoint. The critically acclaimed series wrapped up last year after five successful seasons overseas; if you have the urge to binge, countless episodes await. In this doubleepisode premiere, we meet opinionated father “Appa” (Paul Sun-Hyung Lee) and meddling mum “Umma” (Jean Yoon), who try to balance family life with daughter Janet (Andrea Bang) and son Jung (Shang Chi’s Simu Liu) while running a Toronto convenience store.

For more than 10 years, Julian Assange has been the world’s most high-profile political prisoner. This revealing two-part doco delves the WikiLeaks founder’s fight for freedom by going on an intimate journey with his father, John Shipton (pictured). The 73-year-old retired builder has dedicated the decade to lobbying for his son, advocating for journalistic freedom and free speech. It’s a fascinating character study and exploration into the plight of a father.

ENTERTAINMENT Mark and Jay O’Shea will take their show to the Gateway Hotel on Saturday. (Supplied)

Rollercoaster soul show By Justin Flynn Husband and wife team Mark and Jay O’Shea are bringing their brand of soulful country music to Geelong on Saturday, June 4. The Aussie born duo now calls Nashville, Tennessee, home, but jump at any chance they get to come back home, or is it? “It’s kind of both,” Jay says. “We have a home in Nashville and we are raising our two daughters there. “But every time we come back to Australia we say we are going home. So we probably have two homes now.” O’Shea, as they are known, formed in 2007

and are now an internationally acclaimed band. The duo have released four studio albums, all of which have peaked inside the ARIA top 50. Their show, at Norlane’s Gateway Hotel, will feature tracks from their new album Neon Soul, which will be released on Friday, June 10. “We started it about four years ago,” Jay says. “We had to put it on hold during COVID and I feel like we’ve been living this record for a long time. “I love soul and I love to sing in that style and Mark is the neon concept. “There are some ballads that are deep and meaningful and thought provoking, but there are some tracks that are fun and uplifting.”

The single, Watch Me Quit, Jay promises, is a real tear jerker. “It’s a mummy ballad, but dads get it too,” she says. “Anybody who has a child will be emotional.” Jays says punters at the Gateway are in for a fun time. “We promise a ride of sorts,” she says. “We promise a rollercoaster. Be ready to come on an emotional rollercoaster. “Be ready to dance, sing, laugh and cry.” O’Shea is performing at the Gateway Hotel, Norlane, on Saturday, June 4 at 8.30pm and is being supported by Darlinghurst.

An epic tale comes to life ‘The Boy Who Talked To Dogs’ is a tough but tender tale celebrating the love of animals we share our homes and lives with. Based on the true story of Nimbin’s famous ‘Dogman’ who grew up in Garryowen, Limerick, Martin finds solace from the iciness of a troubled home in 1970s Ireland by cuddling up to his German shepherds, Major and Rex. After running away at 13, Martin is adopted by a pack of six stray dogs who lead him back to human company and a new place where he “can be me”. Starring acclaimed Dublin actor Bryan Burroughs amidst a dazzling array of shadows, songs and stellar musicianship, ‘The Boy Who Talked To Dogs’ is a mischievous and magical work for all ages from Adelaide’s acclaimed Slingsby and State Theatre Company South Australia. ‘The Boy Who Talks to Dogs’ is based on the book by Martin McKenna and was adapted for the stage by Amy Conroy. The show runs for 75 minutes with no intermission at Geelong West Town Hall, 153 Pakington Street at 7.30pm on July 13, 14, 15 and 16 and an extra 1pm show on July 16.

Estate planning: What is a will and power of attorney

Wightons Lawyers has accredited specialists available in Geelong, Corio, Ocean Grove and Winchelsea. Pictured above are Justine Finlay, Jesse Rankine, Ben McLean, Emily Fraser and Alex Baird of Wightons Lawyers. (Pictures: Supplied)

Enduring powers of attorney operate during a person’s lifetime, while a will operates afterwards. Both documents are equally important and should be completed well ahead of when they are needed. Just as a will cannot be done after death, a power of attorney cannot be given if a person does not

have decision making capacity. With multiple accredited specialists in Wills and Estates and offices in Geelong, Corio, Ocean Grove and Winchelsea, the team at Wightons Lawyers are uniquely stationed to provide the right advice regardless of the complexities.

Phone Wightons Lawyers on (03) 5221 8777 or visit www.wightons.com.au This article is general information only and is not legal advice or a substitution for such advice. Always seek professional advice suited to your own circumstances.

12551561-AI23-22

A will is an important document which leaves certain instructions to be effective upon your death. These instructions should include the appointment of an executor, who is the person who is in charge of carrying out the instructions, and the division of all assets once all debts and expenses are paid for. Other instructions can also be added. Wills often contain the appointment of a testamentary guardian; a person charged with the responsibility of caring for minor children. Funeral directions can also be included; whether a burial or cremation is preferred, or instructions regarding the location of a grave or scattering of ashes. Wills can also establish ongoing trusts which can be utilised for many years. The most common trust structure allows for the executor to hold the beneficiaries’ entitlements until they attain a certain age. A will cannot deal with an asset which is held jointly with another person – these joint assets will automatically pass to the surviving joint proprietor. Superannuation will generally pass to the person nominated with the superannuation fund. Life insurance will generally be paid to the person named on the policy, while trust assets cannot be dealt with by a will as these assets are owned by the trust. Enduring powers of attorney are equally important documents which can appoint a trusted family member or friend as an attorney. An attorney is someone who can make decisions about someone else’s financial affairs, personal matters and medical treatment decisions. Powers of Attorney are particularly useful for the unfortunate situation where a person loses decision making capacity, where the attorney would utilize their authority and act in the person’s best interests.

Keep an eye on glaucoma Glaucoma is a common eye problem that causes vision loss and, if untreated, can cause blindness. Usually the deterioration is very gradual and not noticeable, so regular eye examinations are recommended for people from middle age. Once detected, glaucoma can be treated to prevent or delay further vision damage. Unfortunately, while it can be managed, glaucoma can’t be prevented.

Most people with glaucoma have few to no symptoms until their eyesight is damaged. People with angle closure glaucoma can get blurred vision, pain and a red eye, and might see haloes around bright lights. They can also feel nauseous, with headaches and vomiting.

How is it treated? Who is at risk? You are at higher risk of developing glaucoma if you: • have a close relative with glaucoma • have high eye pressure • are over 50 • are short-sighted or long-sighted • use cortisone (steroid) medications for long periods • have diabetes • have high or low blood pressure • have migraine headaches • have had an eye operation or eye injury

If you have angle-closure glaucoma, treatment will need to be provided quickly to reduce the pressure. This may be done with eye drops or intravenous medication. You may also need surgery. Nerve cells damaged by glaucoma can’t be repaired. Treatment is designed to prevent or slow further damage, mainly by reducing the pressure in the eye. This involves: • eye drops or medicine • laser surgery or other surgery to open or create a new drainage channel Glaucoma surgery is usually a day or outpatient procedure. You might have a local anaesthetic (such as eye drops) or a general anaesthetic. Your surgeon will explain to you the preferred type of surgery and anaesthetic for your condition.

Enjoy a strong sense of belonging Ingenia Gardens There has never been a better time to downsize to a low-maintenance unit in a community of like-minded people who share a strong sense of belonging and connectivity. One of the country’s leading owner operators of rental retirement communities, Ingenia Gardens, offers a popular alternative for independent seniors. It provides the opportunity to experience the benefits of community living without the many up-front costs or complex locked-in contracts common in traditional retirement living options. The Ingenia Gardens rental model provides seniors the freedom of independence and flexibility, with the added benefit of a secure lease, along with the lifestyle, convenience, and safety aspects of belonging to a retirement community. “Having access to an on-site community manager and living in a gated community with level, covered walkways connecting them to communal facilities are just some of the many ways residents feel safe and secure,” Ingenia Gardens portfolio manager Madonna Jackson says. “Renting in retirement is a great way to enjoy the best of both worlds – maintain your independence whilst enjoying community living. “During the challenging and changing circumstances presented by COVID-19, the safety and wellbeing of our residents has been of the utmost importance, which is why we have been proactive in taking steps to safeguard their health and provide support, so they feel secure, whilst maintaining their beautiful community spirit.” At the heart of each Ingenia Gardens village is the community room, which hosts regular activities and events throughout the year. “It is where residents can relax and enjoy a chat and a cuppa, watch a movie, enjoy lunch

with friends or participate in the Activate program,” Ms Jackson says. Activate is an events-based program provided complimentary to all residents in Ingenia Gardens communities. The program consists of activities, themed meals, performances, bus trips and guest speakers. “Many of the activities in the program have been put forward as suggestions by our

residents which ensures we have a fun and varied schedule,“ Ms Jackson says. If social connection, low maintenance living and the freedom of independence appeals to you, arrange your private tour by phoning Ingenia Gardens Geelong on (03) 5248 8426 or Ingenia Gardens Grovedale on (03) 5241 3011.

MOTOR

The essence of SUV motoring By Alistair Kennedy, Marque Motoring

Driving

The ongoing growth in Australian sales of MG vehicles continues to gather pace with the Chinese importer now sitting in seventh place of 2022 year-to-date sales at the end of April. The company’s success is all the more impressive given that there are only three models in its range, the MG3 hatchback, ZS small SUV and HS mid-sized SUV. The two SUVs are offered with different levels of electrification, the ZS is fully electric while the HS is a plug-in hybrid. Both come with the choice of Excite and Essence equipment levels. The subject of this week’s review is the HS plug-in, originally branded, logically, as the HS PHEV but subsequently renamed, probably at the behest of the company’s marketing branch, as the HS +EV. We were in the higher-specced Essence variant.

Styling MG HS +EV is a neat and stylish vehicle without anything to make it stand out from the SUV crowd. The front is dominated by a large honeycomb grille with the familiar ‘MG’ badge at front-and-centre. The grille then flows into wide, narrow headlamps with daytime running lights above extended lower air vents, also honeycombed. How many buyers, especially younger ones, recognise that iconic badge and its history is an interesting question - we suspect not many. The Essence variant comes with LED headlights - Excite fails to live up to its name and only gets halogen along with 17-inch alloy wheels. Essence has 18-inch diamond-cut alloys, front foglights and clever puddle lights displaying the MG badge.

MG HS +EV (nee PHEV) is the Chinese carmaker’s first plug-In hybrid.

Interior Entry is easy to manage and there’s good interior space. Rear legroom is acceptable and there’s plenty of headroom despite the Essence’s panoramic sunroof. Excite comes with polyurethane / PVC seats while the Essence steps up to two-tone leather front sports seats with power adjustment and heating as well as LED ambient lighting. Boot space is a reasonable 451 litres with the rear seats in place and expands to 1275 litres with the seatbacks folded. Essence comes with

a powered tailgate. The battery charging cable is stored below the boot floor meaning that there’s no room for a spare wheel, instead you’ll need to rely upon the supplied tyre repair kit if you get a puncture, a growing risk in pot-hole riddled Eastern Australia.

Powertrain MG HS +EV combines a 1.5-litre 119 kW / 250 Nm turbo-petrol engine with a battery providing 90kW / 230 Nm to the electric motor for a combined output of 189 kW and 370 Nm. All-wheel drive is available in the petrol-only HS but, at this stage, the +EV is front-wheel drive only. An advanced gearbox transfers the power from the petrol engine and the electric motor to the front wheels. The petrol engine’s drive torque is transmitted by a six-speed automatic gearbox, while the electric motor transmits the power through a four-speed electronic drive unit. Together, they form a 10-speed automatic gearbox, enabling the vehicle to choose the ideal gear and change gear smoothly and rapidly. Charge time is listed at around seven hours from a normal household socket. We were able to charge from empty to full in just under four hours from our 7kW JetCharge wall box.

Infotainment Inside there are two large screens, a 12.3-inch fully digital instrument cluster with built-in satellite navigation and a 10.1-inch multi-function high-definition infotainment colour touch screen with large user-friendly displays. Smartphone mirroring is available through cabled Apple CarPlay or Android Auto with two USB ports at the front and another pair at the rear. Satellite navigation is standard in both variants. There’s a six-speaker 3D surround sound audio system.

Strictly following all Government directives to ensure we can safely provide essential services to our Customers

Safety Standard safety features in both Excite and Essence models include six airbags; enhanced ABS brakes; electronic stability program; active cornering brake control; front seat impact absorbent door padding; hill start assist; emergency automatic door unlocking and hazard light activation; tyre pressure monitoring; reversing camera; and rear parking sensors. Essence adds a 360-degree overhead camera. Also standard in both variants is the MG Pilot package which adds enhanced features such as adaptive cruise control; forward collision warning; automatic emergency braking; lane departure warning; traffic jam assist; intelligent cruise assist; blind spot warning; rear cross traffic alert; intelligent headlamp control; and speed assistance system.

As is the norm with hybrids the HS +EV moves off under battery power with the engine kicking in at around 30 km/h or earlier under hard acceleration. Tapping the ‘EV’ button on the centre console ensures that the engine doesn’t activate while ever there is charge in the battery. Factory tested fuel consumption figures had us scratching our heads with the city cycle showing 5.8 litres per 100 kilometres and the combined city/highway cycle just 1.7 L/100 km. That latter figure is dependent upon the battery being fully charged to start with and supplying the first 63 kilometres of the hypothetical 100-km trip with zero fuel being used and the remaining 37 km, under hybrid mode, using the 1.7 litres. To extend that 1.7 L/100 km beyond that 100 km would require the battery to be fully re-charged before proceeding. We tested the fuel consumption with no charge in the battery and averaged 6.9 L/100km on our predominantly motorway drive from Gosford to Sydney helped along by the usual brake regeneration feature of most hybrid. These issues aside we found the plug-in MG to be a very impressive vehicle. The instant torque and silent running of EVs contribute to a very enjoyable driving experience. Testing in EV mode with the battery fully charged, and driving conservatively over flat roads, we were able to just about match the claimed range of 63 kilometres. Performance is capable but unexciting as is the norm with vehicles in the SUV segment. Steering is a little heavy but responsive enough. Unlike other EVs the amount of brake regeneration when decelerating cannot be adjusted but we found that the level was just right, effective without being too intrusive. The twin information screens are easy to read and operate although, as is becoming increasingly common, too many of the most-used features needed screen taps rather than being physical knobs. While we appreciate that the lane-correction safety feature can assist lazy and inattentive drivers, like almost everyone that we’ve talked to, we turn it off at the earliest opportunity. In the HS +EV it’s simply a matter of giving two taps on a button at the end of turn indicator on the steering wheel stalk.

Summing up The MG HS +EV competes against the well-established Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV and the just-realised Ford Escape PHEV in the mid-sized SUV segment. With driveaway prices starting at $46,990 it’s the cheapest of the three and comes with the longest (seven-year) warranty. Whether the extra $10k for the +EV over its petrol-only HS equivalents can be justified will depend on buyer’s individual circumstances. For urban buyers with short distance commutes and a home wallbox it would make sense. Importantly, with long waiting times for most of its competitors, buyers can get into most MG models within weeks rather than waiting many months or even years.

Favourite sons return By Justin Flynn Barwon Heads’ chances of promotion to Bellarine Peninsula Cricket Association’s A1 Grade next season have taken a turn for the better with the recruitment of two favourite sons to the playing group. Former premiership players Jason Mallett and Sam Schaller will return to RT Fuller Oval this season, the club both their fathers played for. Mallett has come out of retirement, but will be one of A2 Grade’s best batters while Schaller had a season with Murgheboluc before taking the year off last season. Schaller, a damaging middle order bat and accurate left-arm orthodox bowler, said he was refreshed after a season off and looking forward to the challenge. “It was funny, late last season I called in to watch Barwon Heads playing Drysdale at Drysdale and I parked as far away from everyone as I could and then next minute this car rolls in next to me and it happened to be Jacko (Mallett),” he said. “From planning on watching a few overs, we chatted for probably an hour or two – not so much about playing next year together but I think we both left that day knowing that it was a good chance. “He’s an absolute ripper and someone I have huge respect for.”

Barwon Heads was relegated from A1 to A2 Grade two seasons ago and narrowly lost a semi-final last season to eventual premiers Armstrong Creek. The last placed finisher in A1 Grade gets relegated and the A2 Grade premier is promoted each season. “Following them from afar it feels like they

have a great group of guys in the right age bracket with some talented kids underneath that and then the experience of a few above them,” Schaller said. “I think what myself and Jacko can bring is just some more experience and driving that group to be the best we can be as often as we can. But I know I just look forward to slipping in somewhere and being a part of the side.” Schaller said he learned a lot from playing GCA on turf with Murgheboluc, but had no regrets in having last season off. “I had a fantastic experience and time at Murgie, the players there and the people involved were really welcoming and great people,” he said. “I think after 20 years back-to-back with cricket and footy something had to give for a bit just mentally. “While there were some other things that contributed to not playing last year, mentally it was a nice refresh in that aspect. “The plan in my mind forever has always been to finish playing at Barwon Heads and that time just felt right now with where I was at with everything. “Once it got to the finals I missed it, that’s what you play for – to be involved In those big games where the pressure is on. So now I’m feeling fresh and looking forward to getting back amongst it.”

Tennis finalists battle the elements LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmakers This week was not ideal for play in midweek finals, but despite the rain and wind, all but one match was completed on Tuesday. Section 1 has seen all teams across the season have their ups and downs, so anything could be expected with finals. Geelong Lawn Pink took on Surfcoast Bellbrae Green, in the first-semi, with Green taking a four sets to love lead before the weather intervened, but the lead was enough to put Green into next week’s grand final. Their opponent will be the winner of the rescheduled match between Surfcoast Black and Moriac. Grovedale were set to host Ocean Grove in the preliminary final Section 2, however with the courts under water, the match was moved indoors to centre court, delaying the start but ensuring a result. The first four sets were hard fought, but Ocean Grove had its nose in front with three sets to one but only one game advantage with

the final two sets to play. Grovedale closed the gap with Belinda Lee and Erin Wilkinson taking the fifth 6-4, but Judi Broad and Mel Keating sealed a berth in next week’s grand final for Ocean Grove with an emphatic 6-0 win. Drysdale used its home courts to its advantage in Section 3 with a strong 5-1 win over Anglesea. The home team must have been ruing its narrow loss last week to Barwon Heads, and made sure they got their rematch next week. In Section 4 there was a delayed start due to the wet weather, however, Surfcoast Black was able to secure the first two sets comfortably. Ocean Grove tried hard to tie the match in the next two sets, but Black managed to claw over the line with 7-6 and 6-4 wins earning a match up with club rivals Surfcoast Yellow next week. Section 5 saw the battle of the Surf Coast with Torquay Black hosting Bellbrae Blue. Black started well with Loretta Fisher and Joanne Dow taking the first set 6-4, but from there it was all Blue, with the team only dropping two

games for the rest of the match, and Bronwyn O’Sullivan only dropping one for the day. Teesdale and Ocean Grove will face off in the Section 6 grand final next week, after both teams took close wins. Teesdale was tied two sets all with Drysdale going into the final two sets, but managed to take them both 6-3, 6-2. Ocean Grove came from three sets to one down, to take the final two sets to take a win by four games. Barwon Heads White would be happy with its win against Grovedale, taking a 4-2 win in Section 7. With two close matches during the season, this was a danger match for White, but with its strong performance it will be hoping for more of the same when it faces Surfcoast Bellbrae next week. Section 8 will see St Mary’s Blue face Moolap next week after a 4-2 win over Western Heights Uniting and Grovedale will face Wandana Heights in the Section 9 grand final after both teams had good wins over Belmont Uniting and Anglesea respectively.

Fish still biting despite the wintry blast ON THE BITE Peri Stavropoulos The windy and cold weather has definitely made it difficult to find motivation get out there for a fish, however to the keen angles out there there’s been some great fishing on offer. The inner harbour of Corio Bay is still fishing very well for Australian salmon pinky snapper and silver trevally with land-based and boat anglers finding great numbers of fish. The salmon could be quite often spotted on the surface busting up terrorising small baked fish in the bay and quite often you’ll find a pink snapper sitting underneath it picking up the scraps. Berkley 3 inch power bait minnows have been a very popular lure yet again for both species of fish. King George Whiting and calamari still continue to be extremely well right across of Bellarine Peninsula from Clifton Springs right through the Queenscliff all holding great numbers of fish. Yet again, like the whiting have been biting best on the tide, fresh Pipis or squid have been the go to bait and a bit of burley in the water has definitely been a key factor in a good success. Bag limit captures are on for offer with some quality fish amongst them with fish exceeding over 42 cm. Offshore Barwon Heads is still on fire with gummy sharks seem to be all over the place with a lot of reports coming through with some great fish on offer. Fishing on anchor or drifting has been very successful with Paternoster rigs and fresh salmon for bait you nearly can’t go wrong. Sharks to over 15 kg have been landed over the past week with plenty of by catch including quality tiger flooded and snapper. There have been a few reports of bluefin tuna hang out the front as well along to 70 meter Line so it’s well worth having a heavier rod and reel in a couple Lures on the boat if you’re heading out any time soon. The west coast from Portland through to Port MacDonnell is still continuing to produce some fantastic bluefin tuna fishing. School tuna have been in humongous numbers right along the coast. Gone Fishing Charters has been amongst the action of the past few weeks and the boys are putting on some serious numbers are fish on the deck. Wurdi Buloc has fished well this past week with both Trout and Redfin on the bite. Norries Wasabi Spoon has been a hot favourite as of late allowing yourself to cast a long way and cover lots of water.

SPORT Cats choose Zane Williams in midseason draft Geelong has selected classy small forward Zane Williams in the AFL midseason rookie draft. Williams, a 183cm tall 20-year-old, has impressed for Woodville-West Torrens in the SANFL this season with 15 goals from eight games, including a haul of five against Glenelg. Geelong list manager Stephen Wells said the club was excited to call Williams’ name on Wednesday night. “In consultation with Andrew Mackie, and at the end of the national draft we left a spot open to see what would happen over the course of the summer training period right through to now,” Wells said. “He’s been at Woodville-West Torrens for a long time, coming right through their junior programs, has been a captain and good player all the way through.

“We’re excited for Zane to be here, not just the short term, we think he’s got a pretty bright future.” Geelong takes on the Western Bulldogs on Friday night at Marvel Stadium. Coach Chris Scott said he was wary of the Dogs under the roof at Docklands. “I think it’s true of the Bulldogs generally, especially at Marvel, because they have so much talent through their midfield they back that talent in and they try to use the ball,” he said. “They’re not a bang-it on the boot team, they try to use their numbers and play with speed. “To simplify, the game is always the same, you’re trying to turn the opposition over straight away or make them go slow so you can

get set behind the ball. “So if (Aaron) Naughton gets really penetrating ball use with time and space he’s going to be a handful for any team defence, and then on the other side, we do think about trying to force them to defend with a bit of speed on the ball but they’re pretty good at getting back, so it’s one of those things. “You watch on TV and you think you should just move the ball quicker but we’re not going to move the ball really quickly into a position where we’re outnumbered by two or three. Therein lies the balance.” Meanwhile, Geelong’s AFLW team will take three picks in the June 29 draft. The Cats hold picks 17, 51 and 67 with the first 15 picks allocated to expansion teams.

Saints remain unbeaten By Justin Flynn St Mary’s kept its unbeaten run in the Geelong Football League season intact with a hard-fought win against Geelong West Giants on Sunday, May 29. The Saints held sway at every change to run out 13.13(91) to 6.12(48) winners. Tom Lang was on target for St Mary’s, booting five goals while Lachy Peck slotted through three. It wasn’t all doom and gloom for the Giants, however. After being belted by triple figures three weeks ago, they have beaten Colac and pushed St Mary’s to its lowest score of the season. Emmanuel Ajang and Baxter Mensch were among the Giants’ best. Bell Park defeated St Joseph’s for the first time since 2016 thanks to an eight-goal second term blitz. The win kept the Dragons’ finals hopes alive with Nick Petering starring with five majors. Lachie Patten got the pill 32 times and Hamish Lucas recorded six tackles and seven inside 50s. Zac Alderton was Joey’s best with 23 possessions, 10 of them contested. Newton & Chilwell won game number seven with a 20-point win against a gallant Grovedale. The Eagles slammed on eight goals to four in a high-scoring first term, which ultimately proved the difference. It was the Braden Hocking show at Burdoo Reserve with the key forward slamming through seven opening-term goals on his way to 10 for the game. Hocking took 11 marks in a towering performance. Grovedale’s loss was compounded by an ankle injury to Anglesea recruit Dale Kerr. Leopold enjoyed a 59-point win against Lara, but it took a while for the Lions to shake off the determined Cats. Michael Patten booted for six for the winners while Fletcher Willson contributed four while Marcus Thompson collected 36 touches, a whopping 19 of them contested. For Lara, Mitchell Day provided a focal point with five goals while 17 of Bayley Cockerill’s 24 touches were contested. Colac thrashed North Shore by 110 points with Adam Garner starring in front of goal with eight. Brody Mahoney racked up 31 touches and Darcy Lang had 37 for Colac. Sim Witherden was the Seagulls’ best with 23 kicks and nine handballs while Nick Dixon had 14 and 16. South Barwon kicked a cricket score against St Albans. The Swans won, 33.16(214) to 8.6(54), with Jonty Broughton, Andrew Boseley and Matt Caldow each booting five goals. Alex Beardsell was St Albans’ best with 12 of his 21 possessions contested and he laid six tackles. 30 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 3 June, 2022

Garuccio is named United’s best A big 12 months for Ben Garuccio got even bigger, with the left back winning Western United’s player of the season medal. Having joined the club this season, Garuccio played a key role in the club’s first championship last weekend. Garuccio won the medal with 83 votes, one ahead of Connor Pain, while Lachie Wales finished third on 79 votes. Garuccio was stunned to take home the top award at the club’s inaugural awards night. “To be honest I didn’t expect it,” he said. “To be standing here is just out of this world for me. I’m so happy to be part of this club. “Twelve months ago I was probably in the worst place I’ve ever been in my career, but if it wasn’t for this club, all the support I’ve had since day one, I wouldn’t be here. “You play in a championship team [and] there was so many good players this year.” Garuccio also claimed the fan’s goal of the season award for his stunning scorpion kick which many described as one of the greatest goals ever. He said it was a moment that he still couldn’t believe had happened. Jerry Skotadis scooped the young player of the season award after a breakout season in midfield saw him make 17 appearances across the regular season and finals. Goalkeeper Jamie Young was recognised by the fans for his remarkable season in goal as he won as the fans’ player of the season award. Aleksandar Prijovic was recognised for his lethal season in front of goal with the Golden Boot award, scoring nine goals throughout the regular season and another four during finals, while Ryan Scott won club person of the season for a third straight year.
