$8 million ‘wake-up call’ By Matt Hewson Greater Geelong council has released its draft budget for 2023-24, which would see a number of works and projects scaled back or shelved indefinitely. Twenty-five capital works projects have been cut in the draft while a number of community programs and events sponsorships have not been renewed. The Geelong Major Events budget has been reduced by $300,000 to $930,000 and the free second-hour parking trial has been discontinued. Council plans to introduce a number of new fees around planning and permit applications and city services. The tone of Wednesday night’s council meeting was heavy as councillors cited inflation and rising costs as the main causes behind what

Geelong deputy mayor Anthony Aitken called a necessary “tighten(ing) of the belt”. “This is the toughest and most challenging budget I’ve ever seen,” Cr Aiken said. “This budget’s been developed at a period of time where we’re witnessing economic and financial volatility not experienced since the 1991-92 recession. “We are dealing with inflation, which has just been announced today, of seven per cent, unprecedented cost escalations in our capital program and rate-capping, which is restricting Council’s capacity to raise revenue to match the escalating costs we are facing. “What we’re dealing with is we don’t have enough money for the services and the projects we would like to deliver.” While Council had forecast a budget surplus this year, it now faces a deficit of $8 million, which Cr Aitken called a “wake-up call for the

administration, the councillors and now… the community”. “Council has been presented with the forecast recently that…if we just continued in the operating environment that we have at the City of Geelong, we would face a $20 million deficit,” Cr Aitken said. “Our four-year capital works program needed an additional $135 million just to deliver the same amount of projects we announced last year. “The reality is, we cannot afford that additional money. To try and do (so) would be irresponsible of the Council, and would (have) a significant impact on the long-term financial sustainability of the Geelong council. “The budget will be received with disappointment by some members of our community. “But the pain is trying to be spread across the

board, with no section of Council immune to the belt-tightening.” Cr Aitken said Council had requested a rolling six-month review of its financial position, with an intention to bring back paused projects when possible. “This procedural mechanism has been established to provide hope to the community and also hope to the Council group to fulfil our responsibilities to the community,” Cr Aitken said. “I call this ‘the hope clause’ of the 2023-24 budget.” The proposed budget is available for community feedback until 5pm on Wednesday, May 24 at yoursay.geelongaustralia.com. au/2023-24-BRRP. All submissions will be considered before the final budget is presented to Council for consideration at its June 27 meeting.

Surf Coast backs 3.5% rate cap By Jena Carr Surf Coast Shire ratepayers will be slugged an extra 3.5 per cent in their annual rates bill after Council released its Draft Budget on Wednesday April 26. Chief executive Robyn Seymour said Council would incorporate the 3.5 per cent state government rate cap despite councillor Adrian Schonfelder wanting to lower it to three per cent to better align with people’s incomes. “Rate revenue is vital in supporting the community and meeting its needs, both now

and into the future,” Ms Seymour said. “We understand that many residents are experiencing financial pressures, so if you are, please reach out to us as we have rates payment plans available to support you.” The Shire is looking at adding more community-led actions, responses to the climate change emergency and delivering the essentials in its next budget. Cr Seymour said the 2023-24 Draft Budget was now on display for community feedback. “We are being very responsible by focusing on the key needs of our community,” she said.

“We continue to achieve our financial savings targets and incorporated an additional $327,000 of savings into the 2023-24 budget this year.” Cr Seymour said the budget would focus on commitments, services, projects and initiatives that align with the Council’s plan and community priorities. “It contributes to our long-term financial sustainability, which includes addressing our asset renewal backlog and catering for population growth when delivering our core services,” she said

Proposed shire-wide allocations in the Draft Budget include $15-million for road upgrades, $100,000 for housing crisis resources, $75,000 towards better facility accessibility, and a $30,000 increase in the community grants program. Council has allocated $8.5 million for upgrades to the Winchelsea Swimming Pool. Council said it encouraged the community to provide feedback on the 2023-24 Draft Budget, which is on display to the public until May 22 at 10am.

Darts comes to Geelong Geelong’s inaugural Simon Whitlock Trophy is set to take place over three days from April 28. The darts tournament, at Geelong Greyhound Racing Club (GGRC), will attract players from across the country. The trophy is named after Simon ‘The Wizard’ Whitlock, who is regarded as Australia’s greatest ever darts player. Dartplayers Australia national tournament director and Geelong local Wayne Weening said the tournament was a great opportunity to celebrate ‘The Wizard’. “Simon has been a trailblazer in the world of darts for over 20 years,” he said. “Sometimes in this country we can forget about our champions especially when they retire. “Simon is still very much a champion of the sport, and this is a great opportunity to honour him in a competitive national tournament.” Played over a best of nine legs knockout format, the player with the most ranking points at the end of the weekend’s events will take

home the trophy and prize money. Mr Weening said when Dartplayers Australia was looking for a suitable venue to present the inaugural competition, GGRC was the perfect choice. “When we first started talking about the Whitlock Trophy, the GGRC was immediately onboard,” he said. “The GGRC is much more versatile than greyhound racing and we hope this event is a great success so we can return next year.” GGRC manager Ray Bartolo said it was a great opportunity to showcase the club to 70-plus dart players and respective patrons. “It is a real coup for our club to be hosting a national darts competition,“ he said. The Simon Whitlock Trophy starts on Friday April 28 and runs through to Sunday April 30. The competition is open to all amateur and professional dart players.

ANZAC DAY

Remembering those who served By Matt Hewson and Jena Carr Thousands gathered in Geelong’s CBD on Tuesday morning to pay their respects to those who have served, and still do serve, our country in the Australian Defence Force. The crowds lined Malop Street for the 11am march toward Johnstone Park, respectfully applauding servicemen and women and those who marched in their place to the sounds of the Geelong RSL Pipes and Drums. The march ended at Johnstone Park, passing the Geelong Peace Memorial to gather before the Hitchcock Memorial Bandstand for the Anzac Day service. The service was conducted by Geelong RSL president Andrew Hanns and featured addresses by Deputy Prime Minister and Defence Minister Richard Marles and Geelong deputy mayor Anthony Aitken. Guest speaker Major Mark Cowan-Aston also spoke to the crowd about the meaning and importance of Anzac Day.

The horrors of war also bring out the finest aspects of the human condition

’’

- Mark Cowan-Aston “I’ve heard people say that by celebrating Anzac Day we seek in some way to glorify war; nothing could be further from the truth,” Major Cowan-Aston said. “The serving members and ex-serving members amongst us will know that no one knows the horror of war like the soldier, the sailor or the airman. To use our vernacular, a bloke would be a mug to covet war and its unparalleled ability to create pain, suffering and sorrow. “But … the horrors of war also bring out the finest aspects of the human condition. Characteristics like courage, commitment, loyalty, trust, empathy, and let’s not forget that great Australian sense of humour that pulls us all through those difficult times. “Anzac Day is not just a solemn walk to a grey stone monument. It is that, and we must never forget those who served and those who fell. “But Anzac Day is also a celebration of Australia. It’s a celebration of a caring, living, zestful life; our Australian life and everything that that means to this beautiful country.” Norlane honoured the many men and women who served our country with great weather and a huge community turnout. Hundreds of people attended Norlane RSL Sub-branch march and service. The service was also attended by special guests Lara MP Ella George and Geelong deputy mayor Anthony Aitken. “April 25 marks the landing of the Anzacs at Gullapalli in 1915,” Ms George said.

“This was the first major military campaign in Australia and New Zealand. “The campaign was a baptism of fire for the Anzacs, and despite the odds, they displayed remarkable courage, resilience and camaraderie. “On Anzac Day we honour the memory of the Anzacs and all who have served and sacrificed for the defence of our nation, values,

CONQUEST AND REBELLION

freedoms and way of life.” Norlane RSL raised close to $15,000 for Anzac House to assist war veterans and their families. In Torquay, thousands attended the dawn service at Point Danger while RSL sub-branches across the region, including Ocean Grove and Lara, reported good numbers at their services.

AFTER BIRTH - A CABARET

Torquay RSL Sub-branch president Bob Brackin said more than 7000 attended the services and said the “setting was fantastic”. “It really went well and it was a wonderful day,” he said. “With the Point Danger setting and the waves breaking nearby, you could just imagine those same waves breaking on the shores of Gallipoli.”

Road safety competition is back A road safety film competition is back for its fifth year to help limit fatal vehicle crashes in the Barwon South West region. The Victorian Transport Accident Commission’s (TAC) Split Second competition invites young content creators aged 18 to 25 to submit a script and storyboard for a short film on road safety. TAC head of road safety Samantha Cockfield said there had already been 11 fatal crashes in the Barwon South West region this year.

“By engaging young creatives in the process, we’re ensuring that messages are delivered in a relatable way,” she said. “Reducing the prevalence of drowsy driving, and promoting vehicle safety, are critical in improving road safety outcomes for young Victorians. “The Split Second competition prides itself on giving young Victorians the opportunity to use their story and film making skills to directly communicate with peers on important

road safety issues.” The City of Greater Geelong recorded 10 fatal crashes last year and has had five as of April this year. The winner of the Split Second competition will receive a $5000 cash prize and a $70,000 production budget to bring their concept to life with the help of the production company Sweetshop. Previous winner Felix Barnett said he felt honoured to participate in the competition and

help raise awareness of the risks of dangerous driving. “Winning the Split Second competition has been invaluable in giving me a greater awareness of all the processes and talented individuals involved in actually making a film,” he said. The Split Second competition is accepting entries until May 4, and young creators can send through their application at tac.vic.gov. au/road-safety/splitsecond.

Jess’s charity adventure Leopold’s Jess Davey will participate in an excellent opportunity to help raise money for an important charity. As a participant on the Australian television travel show Adventure All Stars, Ms Davey will undertake a six-day journey to a mystery location and raise money for her chosen charity. Ms Davey said she looked forward to helping the Kids Foundation keep children safe. “Part of our role and position with Adventure All Stars is we have to raise $10,000 for a charity of our choice and then as sort of a reward, you get cast on this show,” she said. “I’m interested in raising the funds for the Kids Foundation, that is the most important thing and I see the adventure itself as a bonus.” Ms Davey said the money raised would go towards assisting the foundation in running camps for young people recovering from the recent Australian bushfires. “All of us strive to have some purpose in life,” she said. “My goal is to help the community but also show everyone that no matter who you are or

what you’re doing, you can create purpose in your life.” Ms Davey said she had already raised $250 for the Kids Foundation and had 10 months to reach the $10,000 goal. She also said she was proud to be able to assist the not-for-profit organisation. “When I was in high school, I contributed a lot to the local community, and after I left high school, I didn’t feel like I had an avenue to do that sort of thing anymore,” she said. “I’m really looking forward to giving back to the community in some way shape or form.” The public can help Ms Davey raise money for the Kids Foundation at https://kidsfoundation-fundraiser.raisely.com/jess-davey/.

By Cr Trent Sullivan It’s hard to imagine there was a time that Geelong had effectively turned its back on Corio Bay. That through industrial changes and economic shocks, the waterfront was not a place to take pride in. The redevelopment of the area, through the latter half of the 1990s, stands as one of this city’s great success stories. The conversion of the decaying precinct into a thriving recreation, hospitality, and events mecca, has helped transform the fortunes of the entire region. It has created waves of commercial investment, with all levels of government allocating funds to further improve the area in recent years. The Wangim Walk wave attenuator; the Floating Christmas Tree; and the ferry service to Melbourne are among the attractions that have ensured the Waterfront remains a premier destination. Add the whole new market of activity and visitors that will emanate from the Geelong Convention and Exhibition Centre, which will open in about three years, there’s no doubt it is an exciting period. But there is no advantage in standing still. Council is keen to prepare for the next 10 to 20 years of development and upgrades along the foreshore. From Rippleside through to Limeburner’s Point, we want to ensure the area best serves our community, environment, and economy. To do this, work has begun on refreshing the Geelong Waterfront Masterplan.

City of Greater Geelong mayor Trent Sullivan. (Supplied)

It will focus on enhancing the characteristics of the foreshore’s three distinct precincts – Western, Central and Eastern. For example, management of Eastern Beach is complicated by the array of heritage assets, the swimming facilities and the one million visitors per year it attracts. In recent years Council has overseen dredging works, the replacement of shark bars, upgrades to the children’s pool and seawalls, irrigation, footpaths, and the renovation of the public toilets. Then there’s assets such as the playground, lighting, staircases…the list goes on. There are a lot of factors to consider along the length of the Waterfront, such as: • Public accessibility and safety • Walking and cycling connections • Visitor facilities • Events and temporary business provisions • Attractions and activities; and

• Commercial offerings. In the initial stages of planning, we are seeking the input of all types of users and visitors. We want to learn what elements of the Waterfront people value the most; if there are any aspects that need to be improved; and better understand the aspirations of private operators. The community’s feedback will assist in the development of a draft master plan, which will then go back out for public comment. Once complete, the masterplan will be used to lobby for external funding, while guiding the ongoing management of the area. This will ensure the jewel in Geelong’s crown continues to shine bright. I encourage all members of the community to visit yoursay.geelongaustralia.com.au/ GWFMP and provide their views before May 31.

Community rallies to help Share the Dignity Share the Dignity’s March Drive saw 1322 sanitary products collected from Geelong for women and girls in need. Geelong volunteer Fiona Threlfall said she was glad to see people help others who are less fortunate access necessary supplies. “It’s a great reflection on the community and about bringing more awareness,” she said. Ms Threlfall said it was important to continue raising money and collecting donations for those experiencing or at risk of homelessness, domestic violence, or poverty. “It’s obviously an ongoing thing to be dealt with,” she said. “It’s not something to be ashamed of. It’s a normal bodily function. “Knowing that we’re getting those products to the charities who then can get them into the hands of those girls, you feel like you’re making a difference to those that need your help.” Ms Threlfall said she began volunteering with Share the Dignity after she heard the stories of the girls and women that had to go without necessary sanitary items due to costs. “It’s ridiculous that in this day and age, in Australia that we have people in this position,” she said. “They might be going without these products or having to make a choice between if they can afford to buy pads and tampons each month.” Ms Threlfall said she hoped to continue seeing products donated in future drives and that homeless organisations were asking for more eco-friendly options. Share the Dignity founder and managing director Rochelle Courtenay said she was worried about decreasing donation numbers in future drives due to cost-of-living pressures.

They also cover our plans to decommission (plug subsea wells and remove infrastructure) our non‐producing Basker Manta Gummy (BMG) elds 50km offshore in the Gippsland Basin. This will ultimately allow the resumption of full access to shing and other third‐party marine activities once the gazetted BMG petroleum safety zones are revoked. Cooper Energy also operates “major hazard facilities”, these being the two domestic gas plants at Orbost and Port Campbell, along with their associated pipelines. Why are we reaching out? We develop new environment plans for proposed activities, and revise our environment plans for ongoing activities every ve years, so we would like to consult with you if you think your functions, interests or activities in coastal or marine areas offshore Tasmania, Victoria, NSW, southern QLD or the Limestone Coast SA may be affected. Please visit https://cooperenergy.wixsite.com/coeoffshore to determine how you might be affected, and contact us at stakeholder@cooperenergy.com.au or via the webform so we can consult with you if you believe your functions, interests or activities may be affected.

Search for City CEO resumes By Matt Hewson The Council of Greater Geelong has renewed its search for a new chief executive following a lifting of a halt order from Local Government Minister Melissa Horne. Ms Horne announced in late January she would heed the recommendation of Victoria’s Chief Municipal Inspector Michael Stefanovic to exercise her power to direct the council not to employ a chief executive. The minister subsequently appointed two

municipal monitors, Prue Digby and Peter Dorling, from the Chief Municipal Inspector’s office to support council to work toward hiring a new chief executive. Geelong mayor Trent Sullivan announced Thursday the restriction had been lifted and council would once again begin looking for a new, permanent chief executive. “Today I received notification from the Victorian Local Government Minister, the Hon. Melissa Horne, that the Governance Direction preventing the council from employing a chief

executive officer has been revoked,” he said. “The council will now resume the process to appoint a CEO for the City of Greater Geelong. “I look forward to continuing to work cooperatively with the government-appointed monitors.” Ms Horne said the process of appointing a new chief executive would “play a major role in restoring good governance” to the city. “The monitors advised that the council had implemented the necessary improvements to its processes to ensure the recruitment

can progress in accordance with the Local Government Act,” she said. “I appointed Ms Digby and Mr Dorling as municipal monitors on 24 January 2023 for a period of 12 months. They will provide advice to me and the council throughout their tenure and are required to provide a report at the end of their term. “The monitors will continue to oversee the CEO appointment process and other governance matters under the terms of their reference.”

A purr-fect way to help Geelong can Purr it Forward this autumn and help sick cats get much-needed treatment. Geelong Animal Welfare Society (GAWS) launched its autumn fundraising campaign Purr it Forward, to give vulnerable cats a second chance at a happy and healthy life. GAWS chief executive Helen Cocks said the fundraiser was a crucial part of helping the not-for-profit animal welfare organisation provide the necessary care to cats like Astrid. “Astrid is one of hundreds of vulnerable cats we have cared for this year, ensuring they are given the best opportunity for a happy and healthy future,” she said. Ms Cocks said Astrid came to GAWS in February as a stray kitten with a severe eye condition caused by a type of cat flu and was underweight, dehydrated and covered in fleas. “It is not uncommon for a stray kitten to present to GAWS in poor condition,” she said. “Astrid is just one cat of many who has arrived needing a unique veterinary treatment and care plan.”

Ms Cocks said Astrid required two months of dedicated care, medical treatment and time in a foster home, which cost the organisation more than $3000. She said GAWS relied on donations from the community to provide medical treatments, essentials and care costs to look after the vulnerable animals in its care. “We hope people can help us as the local animal shelter and contribute to our ‘Purr It Forward’ campaign so we can continue to support vulnerable cats back to good health,” Ms Cocks said. GAWS announced last week that Astrid had ‘graduated to adoption’ and was ready to find a loving forever home. Cat lovers can set up a Purr it Forward fundraising page or donate at gaws.org.au. Astrid required two months of necessary care and is now ready for adoption thanks to GAWS fundraiser Purr it Forward. (Supplied)

Kids camp huge success Lions Club of Geelong Corio Bay helped 80 deserving Geelong children to attend the Lions Village Licola Children’s Wilderness Camp from April 17 to 21. The children’s village, 54km north of Heyfield at the gateway to the Alpine National Park, comprises 16 residences and was purchased by Lions clubs of Southern NSW and Victoria in the late 1960s “The purpose of these adventure camps is to provide children aged eight to 11 an opportunity to live in a community setting and to participate in challenging outdoor activities designed to promote self-worth and to allow them to rise to their full potential,” camp organiser Brian Edward, who is a retired police officer, said. “This is a big ask of some children who are temporarily removed from parental presence and are challenged to make decisions about first time participating in a variety of outdoor activities. “They are always in the care of child-safe volunteers and they take advice from outdoor activity specialists. They are encouraged to listen to instructions and to make decisions about, for example, being fitted into a harness

and taking that first step off a platform that sends them flying down the flying fox zip line. Their after-activity smiles and reactions are unforgettable.” Camp rules are explained to children upon arrival. Three misbehaviour strikes and you are out is the policy. “During the past 20 years I have been in attendance at these camps, no Geelong child has been sent home,” Mr Edward said. “The children are generally compliant and well behaved. They learn from one another and share experiences. The attendees represent the new face of Australia. “There were first-generation Kerens, Afghani, Iraqi, Indian and African. They all participate in activities comprising arts and crafts and indoor games to being harnessed and lifted to great heights and then pulling a pin on a giant swing.” The 80 children who attended the April camp were jointly sponsored at $400 per child by the Dawn Wade Foundation, The Howard Glover Trust, West Carr and Harvey (Accountants) and Geelong Community Foundation. The next Lions Village Licola camp is set to take place in January 2024.

Perfecting the art of giving back Proud Dja Dja Wurrung man Ricky Kildea is well known for his visual art designs, which have featured on Formula 1 driver Valtteri Bottas’ helmets and footballs for the AFL’s Sir Doug Nicholls round. However, as he explained to Matt Hewson, it is his passion for the work he does in and for his community that drives him.

eelong’s Ricky Kildea remembers having a love for both football and community from an early age, inspired by his father since he was a boy growing up in Victoria’s southwest. Born in Warrnambool, Ricky spent most of his younger years living on the family property at Stoneyford, near Camperdown. “We grew up off-country in terms of where our heritage is from, which goes back to Dja Dja Wurrung country, up toward Bendigo way,” Ricky said.

He had this ability to find something in people they didn’t feel like they had - Ricky Kildea

’’

“We didn’t grow up there, so we were a little disconnected, but we were always involved in Aboriginal community events and stuff. “I grew up playing in Aboriginal footy carnivals when I was a young fella. Dad used to coach local footy teams down in southwest Victoria and he had a pretty incredible record, something like seven premierships from nine grand finals. “He loved coaching footy and I loved becoming a part of that. So on the footy side of things he was a really big influence for me, but I think later on it was seeing how much he gave back to community. He poured his heart and soul into Aboriginal education.”

Ricky’s dad, Terry Kildea, was born in Mooroopna on Yorta Yorta country and was raised by his grandmother of the Dja Dja Wurrung people in Central Victoria. Terry was an educator and leader, and was heavily involved with taking the Indigenous Education Centre at Kangan Institute in Broadmeadows from a small portable building into a purpose-built Aboriginal-designed centre.

“They had some incredible numbers; the highest number of educational hours delivered for Aboriginal students in the state, they won awards and everything,” Ricky said. “Seeing how much of an impact he could have on people and community, that was something that really inspired me. Ricky had gone through the Aboriginal Football Development Program with Eddie Betts and then became a qualified personal

trainer based in South Yarra. “I was both running the business and working in it, which was really good,” he said. “I did it for about four or five years, and then I started thinking about where I was. I really enjoyed what I did but I was a bit disconnected from Aboriginal community.” With that passion for community driving him on, Ricky began a career transition, still maintaining his personal training business but also taking on part-time work at a health service in Broadmeadows. Then, in 2010 Ricky took the plunge and applied for a job working in prisons as part of a Deakin program to provide student support for indigenous students in custody. “A lot of my friends said I was crazy,” Ricky said. “‘What are you doing? You’re training people who have got a bit of money, in South Yarra, Chapel Street, and you’re going to do distance education support for Aboriginal inmates at a maximum security prison?’ “But I’d seen my dad bring in people who had nothing, but he had this ability to find something in people they didn’t feel like they had. Seeing him get them to a stage where they could change their whole life, that’s what I wanted to do. “The idea was to have Aboriginal inmates get a qualification or degree while they were inside, which is pretty tough. “I mean, getting a uni degree at the best of times is hard, let alone being in custody. So it was really challenging, but it was different and I really enjoyed it.”

By 2016, Ricky had transitioned into managing student support at Deakin’s Koorie Institute. Then he and his family’s life changed forever when his father Terry died in an accident in December that year. “It was pretty tough after Dad died; it was a shock for everybody,” Ricky said. In the years preceding his passing, Terry had founded Wan-Yaari Aboriginal Consultancy Services, which he had intended to pass on as a family business. “He’d set up Wan-Yaari prior to that; he’d retired two or three times but always ended up back working,” Ricky said. “So my brother-in-law and myself sat down and said, well, we’ll continue Dad’s legacy and jump in full-time; it’s full steam ahead or not at all. “It was a tough time. I’d lost my role model, my dad, and I was starting a business from scratch, trying to grieve and get the business going at the same time. “But as tough as it was, the really key drive was that it was in Dad’s memory. It was like, it didn’t matter how tough it was, it meant something so you kept on doing it.” That drive has helped Ricky bring Wan-Yaari to where it is today, running multiple programs in consultation, education, employment support and custody-toemployment pathways. “Wan-Yaari means to listen, learn and understand, so we have that educational piece behind a lot of the stuff that we do,” Ricky said. “We do consulting work, a lot of community programs, but at the moment our prison-to-work program is the main program. “It’s tough but we’re getting some good outcomes, so it’s all worthwhile. One of our trainees from last year won (Victorian) Indigenous Student of the Year and just

missed out on overall Trainee of the Year. “He finished his traineeship and now he’s gone on to be a supervisor, so he’s killing it.” The role of director and lead consultant at Wan-Yaari has been demanding for Ricky, who now has a family of his own. Through the COVID-19 pandemic he felt the need to find a personal form of expression and relaxation.

“I found I was taking work home most nights, which most people do when you’re running a business,” he said. “It was consuming a lot of my time. As soon as the kids were in bed I’d switch back on and do work until 11 o’clock at night. “So painting became a way for me to say, alright, maybe I’ll just leave the work stuff for the next day.

“It’s something where I can just switch off and look after my mental health and wellbeing a little bit better.” Before he knew it, Ricky’s Instagram was drawing lots of interest, and he found himself painting a football for former Melbourne player Neville Jetta. His football designs have featured in Sir Doug Nicholls rounds as gift exchanges and awards for best on ground, and before he knew it a series of connections led to Ricky designing two helmets for Finnish Formula 1 driver Valtteri Bottas for the 2023 Australian Grand Prix. “He wanted two helmets done, one for him to keep and the other to be used in the race and then auctioned off,” he said. “It sold for just under $50,000, which is pretty crazy. We wanted to give back, so they chose a charity and I chose one. “They chose Save the Children, which ironically ended up going toward a kindergarten in Mooroopna, where my dad was born, so that’s a nice little connection. “I wanted to choose one that I knew would have a grassroots-level impact, so the other one is the Koorie Academy of Basketball. They’re going to hold a basketball and cultural clinic down here in Geelong. “I’m hoping we can have Valtteri come and attend as well, but he’s a pretty hard man to schedule time with, so we’ll see how it goes.” While Ricky enjoys seeing his artwork out in the public eye, it’s something he wants to keep as a personal process rather than work. “Painting doesn’t start until nine o’clock after the kids are in bed, and I paint as long as I can keep my eyes open,” he said. “When opportunities come up, like the helmets, I take it, but I still want to have it as an outlet where I can just switch off. “The really important stuff happens

At Belmont High, I met my wife Meredith, a geography and history teacher. We moved into our newly built home in Highton just before Christmas in 1974 and have lived there ever since.

Who Do You think You are? SBS, Tuesday, 7.30pm

It’s a historic year for women’s soccer (or football, if you will) in Australia. With the Matildas recently scoring a landmark victory over England, breaking a 30-game winning streak ahead of the FIFA Women’s World Cup on home soil in July, there’s never been a better time to get behind the sport. In what could be another fairytale finish, Western United (pictured) will play in this year’s A-League Grand Final today, hoping to finish their debut season with the championship trophy in hand. Tara Rushton leads the coverage live from Sydney’s CommBank Stadium, with commentary from Robbie Thomson and former A-League star Grace Gill.

Exquisitely researched and invariably fascinating, this deep dive into the genealogy of prominent Australians returns tonight, with this year’s line-up including Rhonda Burchmore, Peter Helliar and Derryn Hinch. Starting things off is Barry Humphries (pictured), the performer behind Dame Edna Everage and Sir Les Patterson. Confident he’s the most interesting person in his family tree, Humphries sets out to be proven wrong, explaining, “My mother used to say, in mixed company, ‘We don’t know where Barry came from…’ Well, I began to think, where did I come from?” He starts out by investigating an 18th-century royal scandal in his father’s family tree.

ENTERTAINMENT

The Go Set come full circle By Matt Hewson One of Geelong’s favourite indie bands, Celtic punk rockers The Go Set, return to the Barwon Club for the Geelong launch of their eighth album, The Warriors Beneath Us. The launch is also something of an anniversary event, as 2023 marks two decades since the band’s formation in Geelong in 2003. The Go Set’s frontman and principal songwriter Justin Keenan said it didn’t feel like 20 years had passed since the band began. “It kind of creeps up on you, to be honest; we’ve had so many opportunities to play that the years have passed really quickly,” he said. “When we started we had no idea, no one had any vision of it being a 20-year band, we just thought it was kind of fun to combine the elements of folk music and punk rock. “We’ve definitely become more professional. We’ve probably all improved our playing by 20 per cent, but we’ve improved our listening by 50 per cent. “It’s one of the traps of a loud band, everyone just plays everything at once. But one thing we’ve learned is how to make light and shade, how silence gives power to sound.” The album, released on March 17 and available for streaming, offers few stylistic surprises for long-time fans of the band, but displays a continuation of the incremental evolution of sonic and songwriting sophistication evident throughout the band’s 20-year lifespan. Keenan said COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions had, ironically, given the band the chance to embrace new ways of songwriting

and production. “In the past, it’s always been get a case of beer, get everyone in the studio at the same time, spend a day recording drums and bass, a day doing guitars and vocals and the album’s done in a week,” he said. “You’re always under time pressure. You have two or three takes of something, bang it together and go, right, that’s good enough, because you’re working through a whole checklist of things that have to be ticked off. “With this one, it was really, really different. I’d write down an idea, play it in Garageband to a click track and send it to the other guys, who would send it back with a couple of options. “Then someone would go, let’s change the tempo up, let’s make it swing, let’s put it in 6/8, let’s change the key. “For the first time ever, COVID allowed us to have the benefit of time, to be able to go through those pre-production hoops and make three or four or five versions of any given idea before it became a song.” The Go Set will launch The Warriors Beneath Us at the Barwon Club on Friday, May 5.

Dancers are back on stage with attitude Geelong’s Attitude Dance Company (ADC) will bring two of its productions to the silver screen this weekend with a double bill showing in Geelong West. Fantasy: A Double Bill by ADC’s director and founder Xavier McGettigen features two original works, The Dream and The Hero’s Journey, both of which were cancelled due to COVID-19 lockdowns and restrictions. Determined to have the works viewed despite the cancellations, the company recorded performances of both works at the end of 2021. McGettigan said the company was excited to bring the works to the public. “We are thrilled to finally be able to share our work with audiences in Geelong,” McGettigan said. “After the disappointment of having to cancel the production twice, we are excited to be able to showcase the hard work and dedication of our dancers.” The Dream is an “jazz dance spectacular” featuring the ADC Impact Ensemble, celebrating the big pop hits of the 80s such as Total Eclipse of the Heart and I’m So Excited. The Hero’s Journey is an original contemporary dance work focusing on the struggle of the hero in their quest to defeat the evil empire, with additional dancers joining the Impact Ensemble. All proceeds from the screening will go toward funding the ADC’s Edinburgh Fringe Festival debut later this year when the company premieres its latest

Farewell tour for Mazda’s CX-9 By Alistair Kennedy

Driving

A luxury seven-seat family SUV, the CX-9 has been Mazda’s flagship model since it arrived here in 2007. With seven seats standard across its range, vehicles such as the CX-9 have effectively replaced people movers especially when they come, as the CX-9 does, with the choice of front- or all-wheel drive. The former contributes to better performance, lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions -- the latter providing extra traction for towing or mild off-road capability. The current, second generation CX-9 has been around since 2016 and is due to be replaced in August by the all-new and significantly more expensive, CX-90. Mazda Australia has indicated that the CX-9 will remain on sale until at least the end of this year. As such, we thought a final review worthwhile. CX-9 is offered in Sport, Touring, GT, GT SP, Azami and Azami LE variants. All but the Azami LE are available with the choice of frontor all-wheel drive – LE is AWD only. Our test vehicle was the entry-level Sport FWD.

Interior Mazda CX-9 is just over five metres in length and even third row legroom is almost okay for adults with access via a witch on the side of the seat cushion that tilts the seat forward. The front seats are soft and wide, while the second row of a double bench layout has generous head and leg room. The window line is quite high and could restrict the vision of young children. Cargo capacity is better than many in the seven-seat class, with a reasonable 230 litres

The Mazda CX-9 is an attractive, comfortable and affordable family SUV. (Supplied)

available with all seven seats in use or 810 litres with the third-row seats folded. The loading height of the floor is a comfortable 805mm.

Engines / transmissions In contrast to the wide range of grades, there’s just the one powertrain. The Skyactiv-G2.5T turbocharged four-cylinder engine produces 170kW of peak power at 5000 rpm and 420Nm of maximum torque from a low 2000 revs. The engine is mated to Mazda’s SkyActiv-Drive six-speed automatic transmission. The powertrain features Mazda’s stop-and-go function, designed to maximise fuel efficiency. It works by cutting the motor when the vehicle comes to rest, restarting it once brake pedal pressure is relaxed.

Safety Mazda has never been a company to cut corners on safety equipment and all CX-9 variants come with a wide range of driver support

systems, including Mazda’s i-Activsense that uses radars and cameras to recognise potential hazards. There is pre-crash safety technology to prevent or reduce the severity of impacts. There’s also smart city forward and rear brake support, autonomous emergency braking including night time pedestrian detection, blind spot monitoring, rear cross traffic alert, driver inattention alert and radar cruise control with stop/go function. Lane departure warning is also fitted, with lane-keep assist, traffic sign recognition, high beam headlight control, Isofix child seat anchors in the outer second-row seats, and head-up display. The only safety features missing from the CX-9 Sport are front parking sensors (Touring and above) and a 360-degree camera (Azami and Azami LE). It almost goes without saying these days, but the big Mazda cruiser has a five-star ANCAP rating.

The large dimensions of the CX-9 make for easy access. The front seats are relatively narrow but supportive and comfortable. In the entry-level Sport that we tested they lack power adjustment. Sport does have a reversing camera, but not front parking sensors or 360-degree camera which are available in higher-spec variants. This Mazda has good low-down torque that makes it pleasant to drive on a day-to-day basis, though it’s obviously no sports machine. An 11.8 metre turning circle can make parking a hassle in tight spaces, particularly in underground carparks. Out of town it’s like a luxury cruising sedan with sound deadening material added as part of upgrades, meaning the cabin is lovely and quiet. Steering is relatively light, but responsive and predicable. The ride is smooth with low levels of noise, vibration and harshness.

Summing up The CX-9’s spacious and comfortable cabin, refined ride and handling and very competitive pricing combine to make for a very attractive package. It’s an excellent long-distance cruiser and almost falls into the luxury saloon class. But … it’s nearly seven years old and that shows mainly in the tech features that lag behind most competitors as well as its upcoming CX-90 successor which also brings new petrol and diesel engines. We’ll be testing the CX-90 when it arrives around August and let you know whether the significant price increases (at least 25 percent) are justified. All Mazdas come with a five-year unlimited kilometre warranty. Service intervals are 12 months or 10,000km.

Winter Pennant hits off LOCAL TENNIS Donna Schoenmaekers Tennis Geelong’s Saturday junior and senior Winter Pennants begin this week with almost 800 players set to take the court. The junior competition has 124 teams split into 18 sections from over 30 clubs. A number of clubs have had players age out, which will see Section 1 Boys and Girls looking very different from last winter, providing a great opportunity for a number of others to step up. Last winter’s finalists from Section 2 Grovedale, Ocean Grove White and Ocean Grove Blue GL S4 to S2 - have been promoted, to join previous contenders Geelong Lawn and Wandana Heights, and summer teams from Moriac and Drysdale.

Section 1 Girls will see Geelong Lawn, Wandana Heights and Surfcoast Torquay competing again with some changes to the line ups from last winter, with Beachside and Barwon Heads graduating from Section 2 to join them. The senior competition has 75 teams split into 10 sections from over 20 clubs, with three sections of Open, 3 of Men’s and 4 Mixed. With the addition of the Open competition for the first time in winter, the draw looks very different from last year. Waurn Ponds, Grovedale, Highton and Moolap will again face off in 1 Mixed, joined by last year’s Section 2 premiers Wandana Heights, as well as second teams from Highton and Moolap. Section 1 Men looks very different from last winter, with Newcomb and Hamlyn

Park fielding teams with different faces, while Geelong Lawn, Clifton Springs, Ocean Grove and two teams from Bannockburn are returning after successful seasons in summer. There are 22 teams in the first winter Open format, with many of the teams following up from the summer season. Section 1 will see Surfcoast Torquay play off against Moolap, Wandana Heights White and Blue, Highton and Ocean Grove, which have come up from Section 2, and Clifton Springs from Men’s 1. It is shaping up for a competitive season across both competitions with plenty of known form and a good splash of new blood. With finals scheduled to start in August, teams have time to settle in and prove themselves.

Jemima Hood takes hurdles prize Geelong’s Jemima Hood won a gold medal in the Australian Little Athletics Championship in Melbourne on April 22 and 23. Hood came first in the final of the Under 13 200m hurdles with a time of 28:69 seconds and came third in the final of the 80m hurdles in 12.66 seconds. Cailin Walker finished fifth in the Under 14s triple jump with a best jump of 10.88 metres. While in previous years, the Coles Australian Little Athletics Championships has only included team-based championships where athletes are scored and awarded in their state teams, this year’s introduction of the Australian Junior Athletics Championships allowed athletes the

opportunity to compete individually. “We are exceedingly proud of all our athletes at this year’s Coles Australian Little Athletics Championships, which has showcased all their exceptional hard work over the past year in preparation for the competition,” CEO of Little Athletics Australia Myles Foreman said. “With several new records broken and a doubling in the number of athletes participating following the introduction this year of the new Australian Junior Athletics Championships for U14 athletes we are looking forward to further expansion next year in Adelaide with the introduction of U15s to the Australian Junior Athletics Championships.”

The bay continues to provide some great fishing with anglers trying to make the most of the snapper still hanging around with reports of fish to 6kg. There have been large schools of fish between Leopold and Portarlington with fish responding well to soft plastics and bait. There have also been plenty of smaller pan size fish about, too. Flathead and large schools of Australian salmon are also cruising about, so you have the possibility to come home with a great feed and some quality bait. Offshore Barwon Heads has had some unreal gummy shark fishing with anglers finding great success on fish up to 20kg. Anywhere from 30 to 40 metres of water is a great starting point and finding the edge of the reef will help. Anglers are also picking up some good snapper while waiting for a gummy bite. Snapper Snatchers with fresh squid rings are a favourite to leave down. There are still tuna reports offshore however they are slowly starting to slow down so try to make the most of it while you still can. Down the west coast the school fish and barrels are well on the chew with Portland being a hot spot for both, especially the school fish. Gone Fishing Charters has been right in the thick of it getting their customers onto heaps of fish. The crew will be there for a few months and it’s so worth getting down and having a crack. The barrels down at Port Mac are on fire. Lots of fish are being weighed in every day. Lures and live baits have been producing plenty of bites. Fish have been ranging between 80kg and 150kg. Lake Purrumbete offered some great fishing over the long weekend with some great captures of trout (all species), chinook salmon and redfin. Tiger Trout have been a popular one for anglers as those fish that were stocked years ago are at a much better size and they look simply awesome. Something a bit different up along the NSW east coast, the marlin bite has been red hot with Tathra and Bermagui producing plenty of fish. Peri from Trellys Geelong alongside Jackson Bell made the drive up landing numerous marlin to over 100kg and Mahi Mahi also.

Oliver Wiltshire boots a dozen By Justin Flynn Barwon Heads young gun Oliver Wiltshire had a day out in front of goal during his side’s Bellarine Football League game against Modewarre on Saturday, April 22. Wiltshire booted 12 majors in the Seagulls’ enormous 175-point win at Howard Harmer Reserve. It wasn’t a surprise that Barwon Heads won, but it was a massive shock at the margin. The Seagulls booted 11 goals in a powerhouse third term and kicked 33 for the day with Mitchell Phelps joining the party with five and Archie Hilderbrandt four. Defender Kyle Polley, newcomer Ryley Stuhldreier, Cameron O’leary, youngster Charlie Hurst and livewire forward Sammy Baker were all superb. Scott Hughes kicked three of Modda’s five

goals. Barwon Heads will meet fellow undefeated side Torquay at Spring Creek this weekend in what looms as the match of the season. Torquay handed Anglesea a lesson with a 73-point triumph. A wasterful Torquay booted 15.23, but Baxter Mensch showed he will be a superb addition to the side with three goals while Oscar Lewis and Weylin Doyle were named best. Angus Handley kicked a goal and was named among the best on debut for the Tigers. For Anglesea, it will be an opportunity to learn. Lachlan Smith and Josh Jaska were best while Jarod Bacon snared three majors. Queenscliff edged past a fast-finishing Newcomb to win by 13 points. The Power booted five goals to three in the final term, but Queenscliff hung on with Che Durran and Jordy McIvor-Clark the stars.

Andrew Steele booted another four goals for Newcomb while Thomas Webster and Ryan Jackman were also good. Geelong Amateur put aside a 93-point loss last week to defeat Ocean Grove by a goal. Jai Sheehan kicked five for Ammos and Tom Zeitz three while Max Sutton and Jacob Talarico for excellent for the Grubbers. Home grown local Bailey Sykes kicked five goals as Drysdale defeated Portarlington by 124 points on Anzac Day. Jake Hargreaves kicked six and Tom Ruggles four for the Hawks. Port stretched Drysdale early, booting five first-quarter goals to trail by only eight points at the break, but the following two terms yielded just two behinds. Mitch Turnbull was superb and kicked three goals while full forward Tom Richardson also slotted through three.

Dragons breathe fire for a big win Dominant first and fourth quarters gave Bell Park an 80-point win against North Shore in Geelong Football League round two on Saturday, April 22.
