Growth no cause for alarm

By Matt Hewson New data released by the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV) suggests Geelong property price growth is slowing more than metropolitan Melbourne and other regional areas.

With the looming reality of regular interest rate rises and the constant discourse around the high cost of living, growth is flattening out across Victoria and the nation.

In general, regional Victoria is outperforming metropolitan areas, sometimes experiencing exceptional price growth as the flee from city living intensifies.

However, according to REIV data, Geelong

NEW UST J GE ED A T S EAS L E R

is stagnating at a higher rate than most areas.

While regional Victoria’s median prices are holding strong, showing an average annual increase of 21.6 per cent, growth in metro Melbourne has shown a still impressive 13.5 per cent annual increase. The latest REIV data reveals Geelong house prices trailed that in both regional and metro areas, with a growth of 11.4 per cent since the second quarter of 2021, while unit selling prices are down by 2.6 per cent from this time last year.

Despite this slowing growth, Buxton Group Geelong director Tony Moorfoot believes Geelong home owners and investors have no cause for concern.

“Overall, 11 per cent over 12 months in pretty amazing in general,” he said.

“The last two years have been spectacular across the board for growth, in Geelong as well as Victoria and across the country.

“It’s definitely started to tighten up, what with interest rate rises and all the talk of cost of living and so forth.

“But overall we’ve got a pretty good market in Geelong. With all the infrastructure we have it’s attracting a lot of metro people moving down to the regional areas.”

Mr Moorfoot highlights the stable nature of the Geelong property market, saying it wasn’t as subject to fluctuation as the Melbourne market.

“I think Geelong’s going to outperform metro moving forward, we’re still very affordable compared to your Melbourne markets,” he said. “While Melbourne can show dramatic decreases, Geelong generally levels off. I think Geelong’s going to hold itself pretty well, whereas Melbourne generally drops down in these sort of climates.

“But still, 11 per cent is a pretty good return, if you bought something 12 months ago you’d be pretty happy with that sort of growth on it.

“There’s no need to panic. Yes, interest rates are going up, but we’ve been pretty lucky for the last decade, and now it’s just going back to the new normal.”

New trail beckons for boaters Greater Geelong boating enthusiasts will have access to a new boating trail that was officially launched by the state government on Wednesday, July 20.

Fishing and Boating Minister Sonya Kilkenny and Geelong MP Christine Couzens announced Geelong as one of four areas to feature the new trails that will take boaters on a journey to Queenscliff.

The other trails include from Docklands through the heart of the city along the Yarra, around Western Port and along the Port Phillip coastline to Mornington.

The trails have been developed in conjunction with Visit Victoria, Boating Industry Association of Victoria, Sailing Australia and other agencies.

They are tailored toward being accessible for a range of boats and cruisers with a variety of activities on offer throughout the trail, including restaurants, cafes and entertainment.

Boaters can also access information about various venues while on the trail through the Better Boating website – including beaches and fishing spots to visit, as well as details on how and where to securely moor vessels in safe

harbours or marina facilities.

“We’ve launched these new boating trails to give boaters and families more opportunities to get outdoors and spend time on the water, while supporting some of our terrific local businesses across the state,” Ms Kilkenny said.

“Whether it’s heading to Geelong, around the bay or Western Port, these trails will make a great go-to guide for your next boating trip, with some of Victoria’s very best scenery and experiences on offer.”

Ms Couzens said: “This is a great way for boaters to see what Geelong has to offer – with

a trail taking them on a journey from the beautiful Geelong waterfront to Queenscliff”.

The trails complement an extension to the Public Berthing Trial – which was offered earlier this year by Better Boating Victoria in conjunction with three Port Phillip marinas.

Until the end of August, Sandringham Yacht Club, Royal Geelong Yacht Club and Wyndham Harbour will provide free overnight berths for boaters who book direct with them and mention the trial.

Amy flies Vic flag at Special Olympics Amy Henderson is one of 11 Geelong gymnasts who will travel to Launceston to compete at the Special Olympics National Games in October.

For Amy, who lives with cerebral palsy, it will be her first experience competing as part of a sporting team.

“I’ve never been in a team before in my whole life, so I feel very special being a part of that. It’s amazing. It’s like a family,” she said.

From October 17 to 21, more than 1000 athletes with intellectual disabilities will travel to Launceston to compete in 15 different sports.

Of the 15 gymnasts selected to represent Victoria at the games, 11 hail from the greater Geelong region and train at Jets Gymnastics in Grovedale.

Amy’s mum Judy said she was extremely proud of her daughter’s effort and dedication to the sport.

“It tremendous, it’s great for her to be out there doing a sport,” she said.

“We started gymnastics for physical therapy, to build core strength, but she’s enjoyed it so much, got involved in the club and got to know everyone, which has been great socially.

“She trains every Saturday, and does extra sessions every other Sunday for a couple of hours, which is fairly intense.

“It’s wonderful for her to be a part of something like this, to achieve what she has, and for her to look forward to something so much.”

One of the things Amy is looking forward to most is getting her official Victorian Special Olympics uniform, which she will receive shortly before the team’s send-off at the MCG in October.

“She’s pretty excited about getting her uniform, she can’t wait,” Judy said.

“We don’t know what it looks like yet, and it’s supposed to be a secret when she gets it, so she doesn’t know how she’s going to handle that.”

Amy, who will be performing routines on the bars, floor, vault and beam, said she can’t wait to represent Victoria at the games.

“I’ve never been to a national competition in my whole life,” she said.

“The fun thing for me is trying my best and just being there. I just love being there.”

raise money for the athletes to reduce their costs to compete had surpassed all expectations, and Amy was very thankful to everyone who had donated.

“Amy was very emotional and excited about the money people had donated, she cried when she saw how much had been raised just for

her,” she said.

“I know Amy can’t thank people enough for making those donations.”

A Geelong office supply company, along with help from the community, has donated nearly $80,000 to the Les Twentyman Foundation.

Officeworks Geelong will present the foundation with $79,823 thanks to the generosity of the local community in this year’s Officeworks Make A Difference Appeal.

Throughout June, the appeal encourages customers to round up the cost of their Officeworks purchase or make a direct contribution at the check-out in store or online, with funds going directly to The Les Twentyman Foundation.

This donation will help provide children and young people whose families are facing financial difficulty with access to education and educational resources.

“I’m incredibly proud of the work our team puts in to support the Make A Difference Appeal,” Officeworks Geelong Store Business Manager, Mark Nuttall said. “We’re thrilled that we’ve raised these funds to support the important work of The Les Twentyman Foundation to ensure all children, regardless of economic circumstance, race or gender have access to education and educational resources.

“Thank you to all of our customers who donated to this year’s Make A Difference Appeal and supporting our local community.”

Bridge over rail upgrade taking shape at Barwon Heads Road The new nine-metre-high bridge over rail at Marshall on Barwon Heads Road is taking shape, with concrete supports including columns and walls completed in recent weeks in preparation for beam lifts next month.

More than 570 cubic metres of concrete has been used to construct the bridge’s foundations, columns and walls, and work to build the approach ramps and retaining walls for the bridge are under way.

Crews have clocked up close to 500,000 hours since early works began in July 2021.

Wall panels incorporating designs by the Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation (WTOAC) will be a feature of the new bridge.

The detailed pattern represents vertically broken boomerang flanks, and the colour reflects soils from the region.

The panels are one of the many structures on the project that will incorporate Wadawurrung design and art, with Major Roads Projects Victoria having worked with WTOAC on other project design elements, colours, and landscaping.

In late August, 18 steel beams measuring between 29 metres and 55 metres and weighing close to 750 tonnes in total will be lifted into place in a major works milestone.

The manufacture of the beams, at local Corio supplier Thornton Engineering, began in January and is nearing completion.

The 97-metre-long bridge will allow for the

removal of the level crossing at Marshall to increase safety and ease congestion along the busy road.

“We are ensuring the road and rail network meets the needs of the growing community, through projects including the Barwon Heads Road upgrade, and the recently opened Waurn Ponds Station upgrade” state Transport Infrastructure Minister Jacinta Allan said.

“Geelong is experiencing the largest population growth in regional Victoria, with the Armstrong Creek urban growth area expected to provide up to 65,000 homes over the next 10 to 25 years alone.”

The Barwon Heads Upgrade project extends four kilometres from Settlement

Road to Reserve Road and includes upgraded intersections and new traffic lights, new shared walking and cycling paths and dedicated road cycling lanes, as well as the level crossing removal and new bridge over the rail line.

The project is funded by the federal and state governments and is on track to be complete in late 2023.

“Geelong is not only a rapidly growing regional centre, but it is also the gateway to some of our most popular tourist destinations and is an important connection to Melbourne” federal Corangamite MP Libby Coker said.

“Tourism all around the Bellarine region is flowering, driving jobs growth, and this road is a vital piece of transport infrastructure to underpin that trend.”

Social housing sites identified The city of Greater Geelong has committed to further community consultation as it continues to explore the potential for three parcels of land to be used for social housing.

In line with the council’s aim of significantly increasing the availability of social housing in greater Geelong, the city conducted an audit of all council-owned land to identify potential sites for social housing development.

In March this year, three parcels of land at 116-120 Purnell Road, Corio, 5a Dean Street, Belmont, and 2-14 Rollins Road, Bell Post Hill (excluding 8 Rollins Road) were identified via the audit and released for community

engagement The city received 736 submissions over a six-week engagement period. The submissions showed varying levels of support for the proposal across the three sites.

Many concerns centred around the lack of detail around how the sites may look if developed as social housing, and how they might impact the local area. There were also suggestions for alternative uses of the Belmont and Bell Post Hill sites.

The city is now proposing to partner with a community housing provider to progress potential social housing designs for each of the

sites.

Community life director Robyn Stevens emphasised the fact that no decision has been made on the future use of the three sites and that, along with engaging a registered housing association, the city will be seeking further consultation.

“The city’s aim is to select a community housing partner and then in 2023 the community will have the opportunity to be involved in a collaborative design process,” Ms Stevens said. “Once this process is complete, a recommendation for the future use of each of the sites will come before the council for a

Artist continues to defy expectations Justine Martin believes anyone can turn their dreams into reality if they set their mind to it, and has demonstrated that belief with the release of her first children’s book and the launch of her new publishing company.

Last Friday, Martin launched ‘Same Same But Different’, a book that promotes inclusion and kindness through the lens of her pet dachshund, Pansy.

“I’d always wanted to write a children’s book and leave something for my grandchildren,” Martin said.

“When I got Pansy I saw how she’s friends with absolutely everyone, and I thought, wouldn’t it be nice if that was society, if that was the community.

“Whether it’s religion, or disability, or race, or whatever the reasoning is, we should treat everyone the same. Same same, but different.”

The Geelong-based artist, who lives with multiple sclerosis, has beaten three instances of cancer, and suffered a number of other serious health conditions, continues to defy others’ expectations about what she can and cannot achieve.

“Eleven years ago I was told I’d never be able to work again,” Martin said. “That was their false belief, they didn’t know me well enough.

I had employment agencies tell me there wasn’t enough funding or time to retrain me.

“Yeah, it does take me a lot longer to complete tasks and do some things, but it doesn’t mean I can’t do them.

“It’s been about finding a different way to learn, and having a support worker to help me with stuff.”

Martin runs the Justine Martin Corporation, under which umbrella she manages six businesses, including the recently launched Morpheus Publishing, through which she now publishes her own books.

‘Same Same But Different’ is the first of a series of four books Martin intends to publish, with Pansy as the star, and she said she hopes to serve as an inspiration to others who might have been told they can’t achieve their goals.

“I’d like to think that if there are other

decision. Until that time, the council will not have a set position on its preferred future use of these sites.”

Ms Stevens acknowledged that many people in the community were still seeking greater clarity around the proposal.

“The city understands that a number of respondents found it hard to support the plans without the detail around how the three sites might look,” she said.

“The community housing provider we engage to examine design options for the three sites will consult with the community, and will also look at possible alternative uses.”

FNQ artist wins Geelong prize Far North Queensland-based artist Naomi Hobson has been awarded the 2022 Geelong Contemporary Art Prize for her painting ‘Sand dunes on the coast’.

Ms Hobson was one of 28 finalists who were selected from an Australia-wide field of more than 400 entries, and who are among the country’s finest established and emerging artists.

‘Sand dunes on the coast’ is representative of Hobson’s distinctive style: her vibrant multi-layered compositions emerge from and convey a deep ancestral connection to the traditional lands of the Kaantju/Umpila people, on which she was born and continues to live and work (in the coastal town of Coen).

“This work is inspired by feelings towards my natural world,” she said.

“It’s the light of the coastal morning sun shimmering across the ocean and lagoons. It’s the soft angular contours of the western slopes slowly descending to a sea of wetlands.

“The drama of folding and collapsing mountain ranges with the weather waiting to happen one way or the other.

“All the while my family and my ancestors received and gave. Mountains, plants, animals, and people. We are all one. We are Grounded in Nature.”

The selection panel included Lisa Byrne, Director, McClelland Sculpture Park+Gallery, Kyla McFarlane, Senior Academic Programs Curator, Museums & Collections, The University of Melbourne, and Lisa Sullivan, Senior Curator, Geelong Gallery, who were drawn to the energy and structural complexity of Hobson’s interpretation of the natural world.

Feedback sought on dogs policy City of Greater Geelong Council is asking for community engagement on dog control orders on council-managed land.

The council’s Dogs in Public Places Policy outlines various dog control orders across Geelong, including where dogs are permitted and where they are allowed to exercise on or off lead, and is due for its four-yearly review this year. By gaining feedback from the community the council hopes to gain insight on the effectiveness of dog orders and improve how and where those orders take effect.

Mayor Peter Murrihy, who also chairs

the leisure and recreation portfolio, said the review was an important part of the Domestic Animal Management Plan the council would implement over the next four years.

“We want to create safe, shared spaces for all different types of recreational and social users,” he said.

“Our dog control orders are in place to help our pets socialise and exercise while balancing the needs of dog owners, non-dog owners, the environment and our wildlife.”

The council invited residents to visit leave feedback at yoursay.geelongaustralia.com.au/

dogorders between now and August 14 to help shape the policy.

City officers will also be available at a series of drop-in sessions to answer questions and record community feedback regarding the dog orders, the first of which was held in Portarlington on Saturday. Future sessions will be held in Geelong West and Grovedale over the next month, and officers will also be visiting a range of reserves and trails to seek out the opinions of those who use those spaces.

“Whether you own a dog or not, we encourage you to tell us what you think works

well, what needs improving and what we can do to achieve positive outcomes for all,” Cr Murrihy said.

“Your feedback will be used to help amend and improve specific dog orders and refine the locations in which they are applied.”

Drop-in session details will be held on Saturday, July 30, from 2pm to 5pm, at Geelong West Town Hall Supper Room, 153 Pakington Street, Geelong West and Tuesday, August 9, from 4.30pm to 6.30pm, at Grovedale United Services Memorial Hall, 2a Reserve Road, Grovedale.

Karen’s Diner headed for Geelong A hugely successful restaurant chain where wait staff are intentionally rude to customers is headed to Geelong.

According to its website, Karen’s Diner is opening in September in Geelong although its exact location is a mystery.

The diner, which offers burgers, chicken wings, hot dogs and shakes, employs people who are rude to customers on purpose and expects its diners to “give it the full Karen back”.

“From the brave minds at Wonderland Bar & Beyond Cinema comes a diner like no other ª expect rude service, singing waiters and regular guest appearances from the manager – the most Karen Karen ever – just don’t dare ask to see her,” the website says.

“This is dining with a twist – the food is great, the service is ungrateful but your experience will be unforgettable.

Meredith Recreation Reserve will soon have a larger BMX track, new playspace and an upgraded skate park.

The design of the Meredith Multi Playspace has been finalised after Golden Plains Shire engaged with community stakeholders including local young people and families, the Meredith Recreation Reserve Committee of Management and Sport and Recreation Victoria (SRV) to develop the concept plans and final designs.

The engagement has resulted in an upscaled BMX track which will stretch more than 100 metres with box jumps that are 1.2 metres high, and features that include a beginner to intermediate mogul run and starting platforms with roll ins and seating.

The Meredith Multi Playspace is a partnership project, funded by $420,000 from the Victorian government and $253,000 from Golden Plains Shire Council.

“The Meredith Multi Playspace is a great local project and the community and stakeholder engagement has delivered a bigger and better result for young people in Meredith and surrounding towns,” mayor Gavin Gamble said.

“With additional funding from council to support the Victorian government’s commitment, the enhanced final design will deliver a longer, larger BMX track, a new playspace unit and an upgraded skate park to be enjoyed by children and young people of all ages.”

The project idea came from two young residents of Meredith, Harley Murfitt and Max Love. Council has worked with Harley and his family (Max has relocated interstate) to bring it to life. Construction of the Meredith Multi Playspace is scheduled to start in April 2023.

Childcare centre permit approved The City of Greater Geelong’s planning committee has approved an amendment to a planning permit to increase the number of children permitted to attend a childcare centre in Bell Post Hill.

Councillors resolved to approve an amendment to the application to accommodate an additional 33 children – increasing the number of children allowed on site from 123 children to 156 children.

An additional two staff carparking spaces will be delivered at the rear of the site, bringing

the total number of car parking spaces available to 34.

The applicant, Sincock Planning, sought approval to amend the existing planning permit to remove references to a food and drink premises being constructed on site.

A new childcare building, used for a kindergarten, will be located where the previous food and drink premises had been approved.

The existing childcare centre is fully constructed and operational and the approved

nine dwellings on site are almost complete.

City planning and economy director Gareth Smith said the increased capacity at the centre would provide an important boost to local childcare facilities.

“The centre is easily accessible by the Geelong Ring Road and close to other key services such as the main campus of the Rollins Primary School,” Mr Smith said.

The city received 51 objections to the proposal, with concerns relating to traffic impacts on residential streets and the removal

of plans for a food and drink premises.

Councillors acknowledged the submitters concerns and agreed to further investigations to determine if other traffic control measures around Tova Avenue and Rollins Road are needed to improve local traffic conditions.

The report noted that drop-off and pick-up times could be better managed by the childcare operators, but the parking provisions are in keeping with the requirements of the planning scheme. Development and use of the site must commence by July 4, 2023.

Electric vehicle charging point for Moriac The Moriac community is supporting sustainable travel and reducing carbon emissions by offering a free electric vehicle charging point in the town.

A 7kW charger utilising rooftop solar generation and purchased renewable electricity has been installed at Moriac Community Centre at Newling Reserve.

Moriac Community Network (MCN) has led the establishment of the station, supported by a $2460 allocation from the Surf Coast Shire Council Small Grants Program climate action category.

The Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment – EVSE – is located beside the loading bay at the Moriac Community Centre and is the only free public charger adaptable for any EV within

an area bounded by Warrnambool, Lorne, Ballarat and Armstrong Creek.

MCN president Kim Rowe said local resident and Australian Electric Vehicle Association Geelong Sub Branch member Doug Rolfe was an inspiration behind the project.

“As an EV user Doug had a passion to have EV chargers in Moriac, particularly for people with converted vehicles who need to charge more regularly,” Ms Rowe said.

“His knowledge of the technology and the national PlugShare app, which shows users where all chargers are located, was a key for us and we felt that having a charger would help bring tourists to our town as well as benefit locals.

“Moriac Community Network jumped at

the initiative, given our focus on a sustainable community and we submitted an application for a Council small grant, which was successful.

“We are thrilled to have this in Moriac and welcome other locals to work with us on innovative ideas for the community.”

Surf Coast Shire Council’s Climate Emergency Corporate Response Plan includes commitments to install new public charging stations at a range of Council sites. New stations will be installed in Anglesea, Aireys Inlet, Lorne and Winchelsea during this financial year.

Council has committed to having an all-electric vehicle fleet by 2030 and is working to reduce emissions from its heavy and small plant fleets.

Bannockburn & District Bowls Club officially welcomed its new and upgraded greens this week.

Geelong MP Christine Couzens officially opened the facility on Tuesday, July 19 and was joined by Golden Plains Shire mayor Gavin Gamble and Bannockburn & District Bowls Club president Les McInerney.

The project has delivered the installation of a new bowling green, alongside the installation of high-quality lighting, landscaping, paths, new seating and shelters.

The $760,270 partnership project was funded by $370,670 from Golden Plains Shire Council, $250,000 from Sport and Recreation Victoria and $140,000 from the Bannockburn & District Bowls Club.

“From installing a new green to lighting, seating and shelters – the Victorian Government is providing more opportunities for Bannockburn locals to play bowls day and night,” Ms Couzens said.

Cr Gamble said: “The Victorian government is supporting the continued growth of bowls in Bannockburn, helping residents stay active and healthy.”

“The impressive new facilities will support greater use of this community facility and allow the Bannockburn & District Bowls Club to expand their high-quality programming, providing more opportunities for the local community to play bowls during the day and at night.

“Council is pleased to support the continued growth of bowls in Golden Plains Shire, and we encourage community members of all ages to check out this wonderful facility and give the sport a try.”

For the love of barbecue

By Justin Flynn Jay Becker fully subscribes to the Aussie tradition of beer and barbecue.

Jay, affectionately known as ‘Sheepy’ to everyone, is an expert in the field and is catching the eyes of competition judges everywhere.

Jay won a ‘golden ticket’ to the USA after winning the Australian Steak Championships in 2021.

In the states, Jay competed against 450 other steak champions and came 82nd.

Recently Jay won the best burger category at the Australian version of the World Food Championships in Melbourne. He also finished runner-up in the beef category.

Jay’s winning entry was his own version of a southern fried chicken burger.

“They (the judges) loved the burger,” he said.

“Chef Paul said it’s probably the best burger he’s ever had and Chef Tom said it was in the top five he’s ever had.”

After watching American Pitmasters on television about five years ago, Jay got hooked on barbecuing.

“I watched American Pitmasters and thought geez that looks good,” he said.

“I’ve learnt a lot and know what I want from a barbecue.

“You learn how to cook good barbecue from making bad barbecue. It’s all the things you don’t do.”

Eventually Jay wants to open his own brewery and smokehouse, preferably in his home town of Torquay.

“I’ve got a hunger to become world champion in steak,” he said.

So what makes a good steak?

“A good steak being able to choose the right steak,” he said. “Try and find the best marble looking steak and then it’s learning to know what to do with it.

Torquay’s Jay ’Sheepy’ Becker took out the best burger category in the World Food Championships Australia. (Supplied)

“I could pick a steak and give you a recipe and it doesn’t mean you are going to cook it exactly the same.

“Buy the best that’s within your budget and

use the right flavours.”

Jay said Lara Quality Meats provides all the meat for his competitions and Bells Beach Brewery supplies the brews.

Flood study set for Teesdale Golden Plains Shire is undertaking a flood study to determine the potential impacts of riverine flooding in Teesdale from Native Hut Creek and a key tributary.

The study will provide a more accurate flood mapping in the township to inform future urban planning and to alert emergency management organisations of areas of risk in a flood event.

As part of the study, council will work with the Wadawurrung Traditional Owners Aboriginal Corporation to identify artefacts and cultural sites around Native Hut Creek to better understand how to protect these areas from flooding. Options for flood warning systems will also be provided as part of the study, as well as floor level surveys.

Teesdale residents will have an opportunity to discuss the flood study at two upcoming consultation sessions.

A consultation will be held at Teesdale Community Hall from 4pm-7pm on Thursday, August 4, and an online session from 6.30pm-7.30pm on Tuesday, August 9.

Amber Sidney will compete as Miss Australia in the Miss Grand International contest. (Ivan Kemp)

Persistence pays off Disappointment has turned into elation for Geelong’s Amber Sidney, who is off to Bali in October to compete as Miss Australia in the Miss Grand International contest.

Amber, 26, was a finalist at the Miss Universe Australia competition in May, but didn’t win the event.

The Bully Zero Australia ambassador instead gained a wildcard entry to the Miss Grand Australia competition and won, meaning she gets to compete as Miss Universe Australia.

“I’m a bit shocked and very excited,” Amber said. “What kept me going is that one door closes and another one opens.

“When I got a wildcard I was excited and wanted to give it my all.

“A lot of the pageant is about the charity work and they were quite impressed that I raised a lot of funds and awareness in such a short

space of time.”

Raise funds she did. The contestants raised $54,256 for Destiny Rescue, which attempts to end child sexual exploitation and slavery.

Amber raised almost half that by herself, including $24,024 from a cruise that she organised.

The Miss Grand International will be held in Indonesia in October, which Amber said would be “very full on and a lot of pressure”.

One of last year’s live streams received almost nine million views. The competition has 80 contestants.

Until then Amber plans to travel to the Philippines to continue her charity work and go to Indonesia to meet up with designers to get her outfits made for the big event.

A free event in Little Malop Central (The Mall) will be held on Wednesday, July 27 from 11am to 1pm for awareness about homelessness in Greater Geelong. The event will feature homelessness agencies, a woman who has experienced homelessness and Geelong MP Christine Couzens.

Mental health workshops Bellarine Community Health (BCH) has developed a series of free mental health and wellbeing group workshops for adults. In addition to running mental health services for young people at Drysdale and headspace Ocean Grove and adult counselling services, the workshops will run from the BCH Drysdale site in Palmerston Street from 9.30am to 11am on Tuesdays. No GP referral is required.

Donating a second chance at life Despite Australia being a world leader for successful transplant outcomes, the Royal Children’s Hospital says there are more children on the waiting list for transplants than there are organs available. Fatima Halloum speaks to the sister of an organ recipient about the life-changing procedure.

Z

ooming down slides at playgrounds and splashing in the shallows of a public pool are some of the simple joys of childhood.

At only six-years-old, Hussein Ahmed knew he couldn’t do what other kids could.

His older sister Ikram says her brother was desperate to live a normal life.

“He tended to attract a lot of attention, and he didn’t like that at all. He didn’t like people kind of treating him differently or just singling him out,” she says.

There are some illnesses that are easier to hide, but when Hussein was diagnosed with nephronophthisis in 2013 and his kidneys began declining, doctors attached a nasogastric tube to the young boy.

‘‘

He’s had so many operations throughout his whole lifetime … he never cried, always took everything as it is

’’

- Ikram Ahmed

“Essentially, it’s a tube through his nose which goes all the way to his stomach, and he had nutrients that he took at night that helped him grow, because he wasn’t growing,” Ikram says.

Sleepless nights and constant trips to the hospital became a normal day in the family’s household.

Ikram says her brother’s kidney function levels began to rapidly decrease, and he was put on dialysis for about two years.

“He was always aware of his condition, he would take everything as it goes,” she says.

“He’s had so many operations throughout his whole lifetime … he never cried, always took everything as it is.

“He’s a very firm believer that God does not burden a soul beyond what it can bear.”

When Hussein was about eight years old, his condition further worsened, and he was placed on a waiting list for a new kidney Four years later, Ikram was startled awake by her mother’s screams in the living room.

“I wanted to see what was going on and I just saw a massive smile on her face, but like, tears quickly coming down from her eyes,” she says.

“It was like, ‘is it possible?’ and then we found out that obviously she got the call.”

Not only was Ahmed finally going to receive a kidney, he was scheduled for surgery that same day.

“We were just crying out of pure excitement and happiness,” she says.

Ikram Ahmed said it was very hard to see and her brother Hussein struggle with “normal stuff”.

That day was the first time Hussein cried too, Ikram says.

“We don’t know who the organ donor is, but we’re just obviously really grateful … always keeping them in our dua (prayers),” she says.

Hussein’s experience inspired Ikram to study nursing and register as an organ donor.

“I’d love to help people as much as they’ve helped my family, and sort of repay that favour,” she says.

“Your registration as an organ donor can have a major effect on a person’s life.”

DonateLife state medical director Rohit D’Costa is renewing calls for people to consider signing up too.

“We’ve seen about a 25 per cent decrease in donation and transplantation over the past

two years due to the impacts of COVID-19,” Dr D’Costa says.

“This is why it’s never been more important to encourage more people in the community to register as organ and tissue donors and to have the conversation with family.”

Dr D’Costa says there are about 1750 Australians currently on the organ transplant list, an additional 13,000 people on dialysis who could benefit from a kidney transplant, and others who require an eye, or tissue to improve their quality of life.

“We know many religions and cultural groups support organ and tissue donation and we need organ and tissue donors from all these communities and cultures,” Dr D’Costa says.

“Blood and tissue types need to match for a transplant to be successful, and while ethnicity is never a consideration in either donor or recipient selection, having more diversity in organ donors can help with finding a match.

“It doesn’t matter how old you are, your medical history, your lifestyle, what country you’re from, or how healthy you are – you can still register as an organ and tissue donor. Even if you’ve had COVID or the flu, you can register.”

Hussein is now 15-years-old, and Ikram is in her last year of studying nursing.

She says the selfless act of a donor means her younger brother gets to experience life.

“Prior to his organ transplant, he did not like going out … because he wasn’t always able to absorb or digest food properly, he would always throw up,” she says.

Stormwater impact under review Independent assessments are under way to help Surf Coast Shire and several government and private organisations get a clearer picture of the impact stormwater runoff from housing in north Torquay is having on the Karaaf Wetlands.

One is assessing the environmental health of the Karaaf Wetlands and the other is looking at the functionality of the north Torquay stormwater system. The full findings of both assessments are expected to be released in August.

Botanical field ecologist Doug Frood is assessing the environmental condition of the Karaaf Wetlands. Mr Frood has more than 40 years of experience, specialising in flora

survey and assessment in wetland and grassy ecosystems.

The environmental assessment will include: • An audit of plant species, including invasive and freshwater sensitive species; • Identifying areas experiencing dieback due to prolonged and/or infrequent inundation; and • Identifying other important ecological features or field observations relevant to stormwater flows, freshwater intrusion, inundation, infrastructure or land use.

Urban water specialists DesignFlow are evaluating the north Torquay stormwater system, including the constructed wetlands located near housing estates which capture

residential stormwater runoff.

The stormwater system assessment will include: • Reviewing the suitability and performance of the existing stormwater system and water sensitive urban design infrastructure; and • Identifying possible short-term and long-term interventions to reduce stormwater volume and to optimise the functionality of the stormwater system.

“These two assessments are important pieces of work, which will pinpoint the key issues and guide future investments in the stormwater system and the Wetlands,” mayor Cr Libby Stapleton said.

“We know the Wadawurrung and the

broader community are eager for everyone, including the three levels of government, to work together to protect the Karaaf.

“These assessments will help community and government to get a clear consensus of what a healthy Karaaf looks like, and will provide valuable insights into how urban development can impact natural ecosystems. “Once the data gathering is complete we will have a better picture of what issues exist and what the next steps should be.

This information will feed into the development of an integrated water management plan that reflects our commitment to preserving our environment now and into the future.”

Councillor Adrian Schonfelder said the pavilion was a fantastic addition to the facilities already present at the reserve and would be enjoyed by sportspeople and the community.

“Facilities like these are so important to communities like Moriac and this pavilion is not only great for netball and tennis players but will also be a hub for community groups,” Cr Schonfelder said.

“This facility is one of a number of buildings delivered across the shire that reflects our commitment to providing quality facilities in our region.

“I’m sure this pavilion will help to make it easier and more enjoyable for more people stay healthy, active and connected.”

The new pavilion includes female friendly change rooms and amenities, a social space, umpires room, enhanced viewing areas, kitchen facilities, administration space, first-aid area and increased storage.

Viva Energy has announced a late 2023 delivery date for its hydrogen refuelling station, designed to service a diverse set of Australia’s most prominent commercial transport fleets.

Viva Energy has placed orders for a 2.5MW electrolyser for the creation of green hydrogen as well as a fast-fuelling hydrogen dispensing system capable of refuelling multiple vehicles at once.

The equipment will be the first of its kind in the Australian market and is expected to be delivered in the third quarter of 2023. The containerised electrolyser is provided by Nel Hydrogen US, a subsidiary of Nel ASA in Norway, together with its local partner ENGV, and is expected to be the largest in Australia.

Once installed, it will be at least twice the size of any other electrolyser producing green hydrogen in the country.

In addition, Viva Energy is partnering with Air Liquide for the provision of a ‘fast fill’ hydrogen refuelling package designed to refuel at least 10 trucks or buses consecutively. The system will be the largest in Australia and will be capable of dispensing 300kg of hydrogen in under two hours.

Combined, the equipment will provide Viva Energy with the capacity to generate and deliver more than 1000kg of green hydrogen per day, powering a fleet of at least 15 hydrogen fuel cell heavy vehicles.

The electrolyser will produce hydrogen by using renewable electricity to split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen. The recycled water will be supplied from Barwon Water’s Northern Water Plant.

Lisa Neville is leaving parliament this November on her own terms. (Pictures: Ivan Kemp) 290348

Neville reflects on 20 years Bellarine MP Lisa Neville will not contest her seat in the upcoming state election. She spoke to Matt Hewson about her years as a parliamentarian and the future of the Labor Party.

L

isa Neville has held her office for 20 consecutive years, but politics has only ever been a means to an end rather than an end in itself.

“For me, despite student politics and the community work I’d done, it wasn’t so much, ‘I want to be an MP’,” Ms Neville said.

“It wasn’t my dream. It became an opportunity for me in 2001 when the seat was up for preselection.”

Ms Neville grew up in Queensland and became a supporter of the Labor Party during Joh Bjelke-Petersen’s reign as premier – a reign sometimes characterised as authoritarian and confrontational, particularly with regards to industrial relations.

“I joined the Labor Party then, and ever since, Labor’s been my politics,” she said.

“And what does that mean to me? That means community-based, it means doing things for people who are doing it tougher than you are and trying to make life easier for people.”

A student unionist at both Griffith University and Deakin University in Melbourne, Ms Neville stayed true to those social values, forging a career in the community sector.

“My working life was around building stronger communities,” she said.

“Lots of communities had lost infrastructure under Kennett, schools had closed. I’d seen all of that and the impact it had.

“Working out in the community, I’d started to see some of the issues that needed to be dealt with and responded to. I thought, well, I’m doing it from this perspective, maybe I can do it from another perspective, as a local MP. “So it was really a sense of taking my passion for trying to change things to another level. I had that opportunity at the time and I took it.”

Ms Neville spent the next five years working under premier Steve Bracks, initially as a backbencher, then as minister for aged care, 12 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 22 July, 2022

minister for children and minister for mental health following Labor’s 2006 election win.

“The ‘02 election was a big win for Steve, and it was an exciting government,” she said.

“It was a massive win in terms of the number of seats we picked up, and that first term for me was about learning; learning my seat, the groups, the communities, but also how government and parliament worked.

“And we won again in ‘06. We lost a few seats but we were still pretty popular. And then in ‘07 it was a shock to get the phone call. I wasn’t at the cabinet meeting when Bracks announced his retirement.”

John Brumby succeeded Mr Bracks as premier but failed to capture the hearts of Victorians as Bracks had, narrowly losing the 2010 election to Liberal leader Ted Baillieu.

“I’ve been privileged, I’ve only had four years in opposition,” Ms Neville said.

“It was probably really good to have had that time in opposition, to know what it’s like, to know how much less influence you have when you’re not in government and how important government is.”

Daniel Andrews succeeded Mr Brumby as Labor leader after that election loss, and after Labor’s successful 2014 campaign Ms Neville became a minister in arguably the most effective Victorian government in recent history.

“Daniel and I were elected at the same time, so I know him very well; I love Steve and John, but I probably have the closest relationship with Daniel,” she said.

“Daniel’s style is one that works well for me, which is, if you get on and do your job as minister, you get on and do it.

“I’ve enjoyed immensely working with Daniel. He’s very astute, very committed, and has set out to transform Victoria, both from a social policy side and the economic side.

‘‘

My working life was around building stronger communities - Lisa Neville

’’

“To be a trusted voice in this government has been a great eight years. That, and also what I’ve been doing locally, has made it even harder to say ‘It’s time to go’.”

While the defining feature of the Andrews years so far has probably been the COVID-19 pandemic – “It took a physical and emotional toll on all Victorians, including those of us who had to make the decisions and calls for everyone” – Ms Neville views her achievements in her local electorate as her proudest.

“For me, social justice has been a key priority, and as part of that, how you can better deliver services, from schools and health services through to the infrastructure our community needs,” she said.

“Whether that’s building the Neighbourhood House in Drysdale or Ocean Grove, upgrading

every school across the Bellarine, investing significant amounts over time in Geelong hospital, or the arts hub in Barwon Heads, it’s about really important infrastructure that supports local community.

“I think we’ve got a stronger Bellarine community who work much more closely together. And they’ve done that themselves, and I’ve helped where I could to build that strength and cohesion.”

Ms Neville believes that blend of social justice and strengthening economy and infrastructure is the future of the Labor Party.

“We’ve done a lot of social reform in Victoria based on the back of delivering things, so people trust us to deliver,” she said.

“Building infrastructure can go hand in hand with social reform. We can be socially progressive within the frame of keeping our economy strong and investing in infrastructure.

“You can do all those infrastructure things and focus on jobs and the Labor Party’s traditional base, while at the same time introduce laws about euthanasia and take people with you on a journey about that, and not be scared about that.

“Most of the social reform we’ve done has been wanted by the community for a long time, so we’ve been able to frame things in a way that touches both on our traditional voters as well as the future.”

In the end, Ms Neville feels keenly the privilege she’s been afforded, for which she is deeply grateful.

“There aren’t many people that get to do 20 years as an MP, 16 in government, 12 as a minister, and to leave on their own terms,” she said.

“I thank the people of Bellarine and Victoria for that opportunity. I hope I’ve made a difference to their lives and to the community.”

ENVIRONMENT

Helpful readers share the load Once again, I’ve been working way too much to plan some outings, so I’ve had to rely on some eagle-eyed readers to provide me with their wonderful bird observations.

I rode my bike down Creswell Road in Marcus Hill, to see if the resident brown falcons were present, or if I could spot any flame robins on the farm fences, and instead of the falcons I watched a flock of superb fairy-wrens hopping around the paddocks.

One male wren had particularly striking blue breeding plumage. Superb fairy-wrens moult into their breeding plumage each breeding season. Out of the breeding season most male birds moult into an eclipse plumage, which is similar to the brown female plumage but with a bluish tail. Some males maintain their blue colour all year round, but that is an exception rather than the rule.

The male in Creswell Road was exceptional indeed. It’s been observed that female superb fairy-wrens favour males with the brightest colours, and some males moult and convert to their bright blue plumage early in the winter.

I had a close encounter a few days later with a brown falcon in St Albans Park along the Barwon River.

I received an email from Alan, who called by the Basin Reserve near Drysdale on a sunny morning, but the birds were hiding from him and it was very quiet. He spotted two eastern rosellas returning to a tree hollow where he saw them previously.

Alan continued over to Lake Lorne and was lucky to find an eastern rosella taking a dip in the shade close to shore. It was not too worried about Alan being about 15m away and even went back into the water for a second dip.

Jen’s brown falcon at St Albans Park. Inset: Alan’s eastern rosella (top); and Jen’s superb fairy wren in Marcus Hill.

Alan also ventured to O’Donohue’s Road on the outskirts of Anglesea, and saw several southern emu-wrens for the first time. Alan described these little birds as moving like “roadrunners” in that they were in focus one moment and gone the next.

Alan observed that the heath is just stunning at present with pink and white flowers amongst ground cover banksias and other natives, which meant that there were many honeyeaters around.

I received an email from Kevin, who observed

six white-headed stilts feeding in a pond by the side of Clows Lane, Point Lonsdale, which was a welcome sight. There was an immature stilt in the flock. These birds are also known as black-winged stilts and pied stilts.

Kevin also observed a white-faced heron that was feeding at close quarters in some grass in Queenscliff.

Kevin also saw both eastern and crimson Rosellas at Ocean Grove Nature Reserve.

I received a very exciting email from Geoff, who noticed nine hooded plovers at

(Pictures: Supplied)

Thirteenth Beach.

I also received an email from Carole, who went for a walk on a lovely winter’s day where the weather was fresh but there was no wind and thus the sea was very calm. As the tide was low Carole decided to walk to the very end of Edwards Point near St Leonards.

When Carole rounded the point she came across some lovely birds - of course gulls, black swans, pelicans, many, many white faced herons and a few red-necked stints and red-capped plovers that were all happily feeding.

Healthy, delicious treats DeTox Superfood Bar is serving up delicious acai bowls and super smoothies to Geelong and the Bellarine at its locations in Newtown and Leopold.

With superfood blends full of only the freshest, local and seasonal produce, (YUM!) all smoothies and acai bowls are vegan friendly, dairy free, and gluten free.

DeTox Superfood Bar offers customers quick and healthy food options on the go, with a mission to provide healthy fast-food alternatives available to everyone.

With dine-in options at the newest store in Leopold’s Gateway Plaza, it’s the perfect place for a catch up with friends or enjoy a post workout snack!

DeTox Superfood Bar is the brainchild of Ashleigh Robinson, a local nurse practitioner with a background in health and wellbeing. Ashleigh saw a gap in the market in the Geelong and Bellarine region where

a lack of healthy, fast-food options were available.

Now, DeTox smoothies and acai bowls are all made to order in a healthier way, to retain all the fibre and nutrition from all the fresh ingredients. Known for its brightly coloured, fruit-decorated bowls, DeTox is bringing awareness about the powerful health benefits from the purple acai berry, and that healthy food options are delicious!

Acai bowl number three is a fan favourite – topped with house-made peanut butter, cacao nibs, strawberries and banana. Don’t forget healthy snack options! Ultimate Avocado on toast, sweet toast number two with peanut butter, berry coulis and strawberries, and delicious homemade bliss balls are all available.

MOTOR

Volkswagen Polo a solid choice USED CAR CHECKOUT Ewan Kennedy, Marque Motoring The Volkswagen Polo is a relatively small car that’s noticeably down in size from its big brother Golf. It has the solid German feel and owners we have spoken say they feel safe and secure. Just as importantly, they love the way they handle in a European manner.

Polo was a relatively slow seller in Australia prior to 2010 when a new model was introduced in April of that year. Older Polos had been on the bland side in appearance, the new 2010 one had a bit of oomph to its shape.

The 2010 Polo is a little larger than previous models so can be used as a family car if the children are in their pre-teen years.

The seating position in front is quite high to provide for extra foot and legroom behind them. If you’re not sure if you like the relatively high front seats ask the sales people if you can take a longer than average test drive and see what you think and feel.

The interior is very Volkswagen in that it’s functional and the driver has neat layout that’s easy to use and controls that fall readily to hand.

Though larger, the 2010 Polo was a little lighter than the model it superseded thanks to the use of a combination of high strength materials.

Petrol engine capacities in the older standard models are four-cylinder 1.2 and 1.4 litres.

Performance from the smaller engine is better than you might expect due to the little VW’s relatively light weight. But as part of the 2014 makeover the 1.4-litre was discontinued and the 1.2 was offered in two different states of tune depending on the model.

A virtually all-new Polo was launched in March 2018. It followed a similar shape to its

2010 Volkswagen Polo GTI; and 2017 Volkswagen Polo Urban. (Pictures: Supplied)

immediate predecessor. It has an interesting new engine, a 1.3-litre three-cylinder turbo-petrol that’s a perky little unit that loved to rev and has a nice sound.

The 1.6-litre turbo-diesel from 2010 onwards is a much better unit than the old-style 1.9-litre in previous Polos. Diesels in the small car class in Australia have never been popular and the turbo-diesel was discontinued as part of the 2014 facelift.

The sporty Polo GTI is worth looking at as it’s modestly priced for its type. The GTI launched in November 2010 had 132 kW from VW’s fascinating 1.4-litre TwinCharger (supercharged and turbocharged) engine was installed. This engine was superseded in 2016 by a conventional turbo-petrol unit producing up to 141 kW. Firmer suspension and added precision through the steering means the GTI provides driving enjoyment at a very modest price.

The 2016 GTI has the usual subtle red touches to the body – and the not-so-subtle tartan seats. Unlike previous Polo GTi variants that only had three doors, it was offered with three

and five doors.

VW dealers are major metropolitan areas, however an increasing number are being set up in country cities as well as large towns in the bush.

Service and repairs are moderate in price, though they can be higher than for Japanese and Korean cars. We have heard of no real complaints about the cost or availability of spare parts.

A good amateur mechanic should be able to do a fair bit of their own work as the Polo has a simple mechanical layout. In a car of this size the underbonnet area is quite crowded. Have a repair manual at your side, and keep well clear of repairs that could affect the car’s safety.

Insurance costs are about average for a car in this European class, but you are likely to be charged extra to cover the Polo GTi, especially if you have a poor insurance history and / or are a younger driver.

What to look for Look for a full-service record from a Volkswagen specialist.

Look over the body carefully for any dings or scratches because Polos are often used as city and near-city cars and can suffer lots of minor damage.

Examine the wheels for damage caused by hitting kerbs. The front-left is often the first to suffer.

Ensure the engine starts quickly and idles reasonably smoothly immediately it fires up.

Diesels will be slower to start than petrols.

Check the DSG automated manual gearbox works correctly at all times, particularly at very low speeds while parking.

Manual gearboxes should be light and easy with no crunching when you shift down quickly. The clutch should be smooth and predictable in its operation Be sure that all electrical items work correctly, particularly the infotainment system.

Using the owner’s manual is the best way to check you’ve tried it all.

How much?

Expect to pay from $3000 to $6000 for a 2010 Volkswagen Polo Edition; $5000 to $8000 for a 2011 77 TSI Comfortline or a 2014 Trendline; $7000 to $11,000 for a 2012 GTi or a 2015 81 TSI Comfortline; $9000 to $14,000 for a 2014 GTi or a 2017 Urban+; $11,000 to $16,000 for a GTi; $13,000 to $19,000 for a 2016 Gi or a 2019 85 TSI Comfortline; $16,000 to $23,000 for a 2019 85 TSI Style; and $22,000 to $30,000 for a 2021 GTi

Car buying tip When you think about what to buy vehicle take your time to work out what you will need and what prices are being asked.

Prices can vary from depending on demand and even on the current financial state of the economy.

Four Cats ink contract extensions Geelong this week secured the signatures of four senior players, with Max Holmes (2024), Mark O’Connor (2024), Ollie Dempsey (2023), Shannon Neale (2023) and Toby Conway (2025), all inking new deals to extend their time at Kardinia Park.

Drafted with pick 20 in the 2020 national draft, Holmes played 12 games, including two finals in his debut season. Having suffered an ankle injury earlier this season, Holmes has returned to the Cats’ side and has already become a critical part of Geelong’s midfield, averaging 14 disposals a game so far this season.

In his sixth season, O’Connor has evolved into a crucial part of the Geelong mix, after being recruited from County Kerry in Ireland in 2016. O’Connor has played a total of 79 games since debuting in round 8, 2017 against Essendon, and was a member of the

’’

player leadership group during the 2020-2021 seasons.

Dempsey broke into the senior team in round 6 against North Melbourne in Tasmania after being selected in the 2021 rookie draft off the back of standout performances for Carey Grammar. This season Dempsey has excelled at VFL level with his hard running across half forward and in the midfield.

The club has also re-signed Shannon Neale and Toby Conway to contract extensions.

Neale was taken pick 30 in the 2020 draft and made his AFL debut in Round 11 against Adelaide after multiple notable performances

in the VFL, while the 205cm, Conway is a rapidly developing young ruckman currently under tutelage of mentors Josh Jenkins and Geelong premiership player Brad Ottens.

Cats general manager of football Simon Lloyd said the club was thrilled to have all five players commit their futures to Geelong.

“It’s a fantastic sign that Max, Mark, Ollie, Shannon and Toby see their futures here at the Cats,” he said.

“Max and Mark both have outstanding character and take ownership over driving our Club standards. They play influential roles within our senior team and are consistently striving to improve the Geelong Football Club.

“For Ollie, Shannon and Toby, while limited in their AFL experience so far, they have all shown strong signs at VFL level and we are excited to see them take the next step in their development.”

Race to Saturday junior tennis finals heats up LOCAL TENNIS

Donna Schoenmaekers It was a cold and wet week for round 10 of Tennis Geelong’s Saturday Juniors, but most matches were still able to be completed, despite the conditions.

The race to the finals in Section 8 Boys became more interesting this week with a number of upsets at the top of the table.

Top team Lara was due to face eighth placed Wandana Heights, but the courts at Wandana were unplayable and the match was abandoned.

Geelong Lawn, only behind Lara on 24 GEELONG INDEPENDENT Friday, 22 July, 2022

percentage, travelled to play sixth placed Grovedale.

With the 8am start, the match started on time with the final match completed as the rain started to fall.

Both teams were well matched in the doubles with Gautam Shrivastava and Nate Schoenmaekers winning the first for Grovedale in a tie breaker, while Geelong Lawn’s Jack Nancarrow and Oliver Chudoschnik took the second 6-4.

Grovedale’s Shrivastava and Schoenmaekers continued their winning way taking their singles 6-3 and 6-1 respectively, as did Nancarrow for Geelong Lawn with a 6-2 win,

leaving the result pending on the final set.

In a lengthy set, with rain starting to fall, Sam Sharp won through for Grovedale in a tie break, giving them the win, and bringing them four points closer to second, leaving them 10 points behind Geelong Lawn, but still four points out of the four.

Third placed Highton travelled to Bannockburn this week, but with a player short, they had a battle on their hands to maintain their position.

Bannockburn took the first and third singles with Lachie Punton and Kaelan Burns winning 6-2 and 6-3 respectively, while Liam Guilfoyle took the second 6-2 for Highton.

The doubles went to Highton 6-4 with Guilfoyle teaming with Mason Brand to give their team a second set, and two points for the day, while Bannockburn stayed in fourth position, but now only six points from second, and a potential double chance come finals time.

The final match saw fourth placed Surfcoast Torquay host Centre Court.

Torquay was too strong in the singles taking three of the four sets, while the doubles went one each way, giving Torquay the win keeping them in fourth but also drawing it to within five points of second, which could be all important with its next match scheduled against Highton.

Offence keeps Eagles clear on top

By Matt Hewson Newtown & Chilwell maintained a four-point advantage atop the Geelong Netball League ladder ahead of rivals Colac and St Albans after defeating Geelong West Giants by 30 goals on Saturday.

The Eagles took the lead early in the match, leading by 17 goals to eight at quarter time and never relinquished their scoreboard dominance, eventually triumphing 70-40 by the final whistle.

Eagles coach Jason Woolley said despite the one-sided scoreline the match was hard-fought from beginning to end.

“To be honest, it was one of those games where though we were in a good spot on the scoreboard, the contest itself was still quite tough,” he said.

“They’ve got really good players, the Leader sisters, Alahria Smith and the like, and they definitely put up a good fight in general play.

The margin didn’t reflect how tough the game felt.”

Newtown & Chilwell star goal shooter Uneeq Palavi was away on national duties for Tonga but Zanna Woods proved to be an excellent replacement in the key position, shooting 46 goals and earning her coach’s vote for best on court.

Goal attack Julia Woolley was also instrumental up front for the Eagles’, scoring 24 goals of her own, while midcourters Danielle Mathers and Vanessa Augustini provided constant supply to the offensive duo.

“Zanna and Julia were both really good in the circle, they converted our chances well,” Woolley said.

“Zanna scored a lot through her movement and combinations. You see a lot of teams that have the big, tall shooter, whereas we rely on the moving circle.

“It’s a bit harder to defend with the low ball coming through. Zanna connected really well, not only finishing her opportunities but also linking up with Julia, Danni and Vanessa.”

The win was an important one given how tight the top of the ladder is at this stage of

the season, even more so given the Eagles will face third-placed St Albans this week in a blockbuster at Elderslie Reserve.

Newtown & Chilwell suffered its only loss of the season to St Albans in round four, going down 73-63 in a fiercely contested match and Woolley said his players were keen to balance the scales.

“After losing to St Albans earlier in the year the girls are pretty keen to get back out there and play them again,” he said.

“And the ladder is so tight, one loss can really have a significant impact on where you finish, particularly this late in the season. So it’s a very important game for us this weekend.”

Palavi remains unavailable this week, and Woolley said his attackers would need to replicate their ability to convert chances to beat St Albans.

“When they beat us we put up a high score ourselves, you score 63 and most weeks you’ll take the game,” he said. “It just means we need to tighten up a little bit defensively and make the most of our opportunities.”

Zanna Woods was superb in goal for Newtown & Chilwell. (Netball Victoria)

Coach’s message is simple: Keep on winning Bannockburn coach Alana Nicol isn’t content with being three games and percentage inside the Geelong District Netball League top five and wants her side to keep winning to assure itself of a finals spot.

The 2019 premiership player is in her first year as coach of the A Grade side, which she described as being “challenging but also good”.

With four rounds to go, Bannockburn is above Corio on the ladder and two more wins will guarantee finals action, but one win could be enough.

Nicol said the side had been inconsistent this season, but has what it takes against the best teams.

“We beat Werribee (Centrals) and came close to Thomson and we have performed well against the top sides, but we’ve lost to teams below us on the ladder,” she said

‘‘

It’s great for the competition, it makes it more interesting and fun

’’

- Alana Nicol “Every time we take it to the top teams we’re close and you have to play the top teams in finals, so I guess that’s encouraging.

“We need to keep winning because I feel that, worst case, we could end up equal with sixth and only separated by percentage.”

Bannockburn gained percentage on the weekend via a 63 to 17 win against Geelong West.

Goal defence Erin Dillon and goal attack Georgia Connors were superb in the win.

“It was good to get in and get the job done and practice our set plays,” Nicol said.

“Geelong West didn’t give up all game and kept making us work. It was a 56-goal win, but it didn’t feel like that.

“This season a lot of teams have been giving the top teams a run and pushing them.

“It’s great for the competition, it makes it more interesting and fun.”

Bannockburn powered away in the final term, piling on 19 goals to two.

Nicol said her message at the last break was clear.

“I said we had to start again and keep pushing,” she said.

“Clean the slate and start again. We needed to push out that percentage.”

The Tigers face 10th placed Anakie this weekend in a game they should win, but Nicol isn’t one bit complacent.

“Last time we played them we only won by a goal,” she said.

Alana Nicol, a 2019 premiership player with Bannockburn, has her side in the top five. (Facebook)

“We didn’t have a few of our goalers so I’m a bit more confident this time, although I’m still going into the game a bit cautious.”

Ruby Shannahan, who shot 50 goals against Geelong West, missed the first encounter with Anakie, but will be available, although Rosie Shannahan will miss through

work commitments.

Top side Thomson thrashed bottom placed Bell Post Hill with Kaytlyn Stone best on court.

Winchelsea took care of business against Anakie with Gemma Stavenuiter starring.

East Geelong had a fright against Belmont, but emerged triumphant while Werribee Centrals were too good for Inverleigh and Corio kept its finals hopes flickering with a 25-goal win against North Geelong.

‘No passengers’ for Joeys

By Matt Hewson St Joseph’s produced a classic team performance to win by 40 points at South Barwon in round 14 of Geelong Football League at the weekend.

Joeys got away to a fast start, kicking with the wind and capitalising on that advantage to lead 7.2 to 1.1 at quarter time.

South Barwon struck back in the second quarter, outscoring St Joseph’s by four goals to none, but the Joeys’ conversion rate in the first quarter held them in good stead as they retained a 15-point lead at the major break.

Five goals in each of the third and fourth periods cemented the Joeys’ victory with a final score of 15.11(101) to 9.7(61).

St Joseph’s coach Paul Carson said his side’s accuracy in the first quarter paved the way for the win.

“To kick 7.2, to kick that straight, is super important to get that separation and put on scoreboard pressure,” he said.

“Getting nine shots on goal and kicking seven of them doesn’t happen very often. The

week before it was the other way around, and you can really keep the other team in the game if you miss those goals.

“But it was really good in a big game like that to give ourselves a nice buffer and set up the win from there.”

St Joseph’s ruckman Josh Hovey was important for the visitors, getting the edge on his South Barwon counterpart Luke Davis for much of the game and taking contested marks around the ground.

Hovey was supported by a dominant midfield that included Reid Adams and Sam Clohesy with 27 and 20 disposals, respectively, while returning forward Ayden Gras led the goalscorers with three after dominating the reserves competition for the last month.

But Carson emphasised the contributions of all his players at the weekend.

“Hovey was fantastic, Reid Adams worked his bum off all day and Brant Haintz was really strong, but we didn’t have any passengers,” he said. “We had nine goal-kickers in the end, which was a really pleasing thing. It’s a good

thing when half your team’s kicking goals and sharing the load on the scoreboard.

“Everyone did their bit and got the job done.”

The win leaves the Joeys in the fifth spot and a game clear of sixth-placed Grovedale, who they face this week in a match that could have a huge impact on the ladder come finals time.

“They’re right behind us on the ladder, so this will be a big game,” Carson said.

“They’ve been in good form and their list looks quite healthy, so it’s another opportunity to play a really good team.

“We’ll really try to give ourselves a little buffer and get some separation from sixth place, and that’ll go a long way to make sure we can cement ourselves in the five.”

Hovey’s performance could once again be a major factor in the match, as he will face ex-AFL ruckman Ryan Abbott.

“Abbott is probably the best ruckman in the competition,” Carson said. “So if we can limit his use, nullify him a bit and win that contest work underneath him it’ll go a long way toward getting the result we’re after.”

David Tucker and Leigh Ellis have been our focal points up forward pretty much the whole year

Winch looks for strong finish to 2022 While Geelong District Football League finals seem out of the equation for Winchelsea, coach Christian Shaw isn’t completely giving up hope just yet.

The Blues are in seventh place on the ladder and play sixth placed Thomson this week and third placed Bannockburn the week after.

“It’s always been on the agenda so finals, while they are mathematically still on the table, our chances probably hinge on too many variables,” Shaw said.

“We just have to hope the dominoes fall our way.

“Both sides are above us on the ladder and they are going to be challenging and we know we need to be competitive against those teams.”

Fresh from a resounding 130-point win against Anakie, Winchelsea has won seven games this season, which has pleased Shaw.

“Really happy and pleased,” he said.

“We’re probably just ahead of expectations.”

Winch was well served by David Tucker and Leigh Ellis up forward on Saturday.

Tucker booted seven goals while Ellis contributed five.

“David Tucker and Leigh Ellis have been our focal points up forward pretty much the whole year,” Shaw said.

“We try and isolate them as much as we can.”

Shaw was also impressed with Brayden O’Hanlon, who had missed the previous three games through injury.

“He adds a lot of drive for us,” he said.

“We’ve got a lot of guys who can rotate through the midfield. We bat pretty deep there.”

Shaw said the culture around the club was strong, led by life member Daniel Greskie and former coach Brendan Forssman.

“Brilliant clubs are built around brilliant people,” he said.

“We haven’t been a successful club but the

Waterfront proves fruitful for anglers ON THE BITE Peri Stavropoulos Geelong Waterfront has offered some fantastic fishing options this past week as the wild and rough weather has pushed the fish close to the shoreline.

Pinky snapper, Australian salmon, snook, silver trevally and flathead have all been finding their way onto anglers’ lines.

Casting soft plastics have again been a hot technique with all these species snatching them off the bottom.

Berkley Powerbait Minnows have been working very well and the ever reliable Turtleback Worm is accounting for plenty of fish.

Bait fishos are also having plenty of success with pipis and bluebait being a standout option. Having a consistent burley trail in the water is helping land a few extra fish.

Clifton Springs through to Portarlington is still producing plenty of calamari with anglers finding not just good numbers but some impressive squid are well and truly in the area. Drifting along the 3 metre line as nearly always is holding lots of squid with size 2.5 and 3.0 jigs proving irresistible.

Queenscliff harbour is offering some great fishing at the moment and allows smaller boats or kayaks to get amongst some great fishing in the windy conditions. Silver trevally to 40cm have been the main target for anglers getting inside this area with the fish taking a liking to the famous Turtleback Worms and Zman GrubZ. The other perk of being in a smaller boat or kayak in this area is that there are a few deep holes amongst the shallow sand flats that hold lots of fish that bigger boats cannot access.

Barwon River estuary is still fishing very well for anglers chasing trevally, salmon and estuary perch.

Fishing about two hours before the high tide has been the ideal time with the whole Sheepwash and small creeks that flow through the system holding plenty of fish. Zman gubZ and Ecogear VX35s have been working a treat.

The school bluefin tuna are going absolutely ballistic down the west coast with Port Fairy being the standout location. Trolling anywhere between 50 and 70 metres has been productive.

Rapala X-Rap 20s and Tornado Skirts doing the damage.

Quite often the fish can be seen on the surface turning the water into blue white wash attacking baitfish and stickbaits have been working well when the fish are doing this.

next few seasons are promising.”

Inverleigh kept top spot with a 61-point win against Werribee Centrals with Matt Tyquin booting five goals in a best afield display.

Bannockburn climbed into third spot at the expense of Geelong West thanks to a 10-point win with skipper Daniel Measures best on ground.

North Geelong won a thriller against Corio by five points. Just seven goals were scored in the first three quarters, but both sides kicked six each in the last.

East Geelong thrashed Belmont by 140 points to keep knocking on the door of top spot. Jake Watson-Serle was the star with 10 goals.

Bell Post Hill is a game clear in fifth spot after a 10-point win against fellow finals contender Thomson. Vice-captain Jordan Schrader-Sabell was best afield.
