All a-grow with Vasili
(Wayne Hawkins)
Gardening guru Vasili Kanidiadis has shared the secrets of a successful garden with Maribyrnong residents. The host of TV’s Vasili’s Backyard spilt the beans on traditional and organic gardening basics to participants of a workshop at Braybrook Community Centre on Thursday. The workshop was one of a series planned by Maribyrnong council as part of the Volunteer Braybook initiative. Mayor Grant Miles said the workshops would include activities to get school children learning about the environment and food production. “We want to encourage more people to get involved and become plot holders and garden members, with Vasili’s Backyard being just one feature of our series of workshops,” he said. Residents are welcome to use the Braybrook Community Garden’s communal garden beds to grow fruit, vegetables, herbs and flowers. Cr Miles said the garden helped residents get to know one another and build a closer community. Audrey, Vasili AND max

Hospital on life support More than half of Footscray’s Western Hospital needs to be demolished and urgently rebuilt, according to a briefing document prepared for the state government. The Changing Health for a Changing West document, seen by Star Weekly, reveals $550 million will need to be spent at Western and Sunshine hospitals to meet demand from a population expected to pass one million within a decade. The Western Health document warned a failure to rebuild the Western Hospital now
would prove costly in the longer term. “The cost of a five-year delay in commencing this program of work is estimated at more than $100 million,” it stated. Fewer patients would be able to be treated and patients could suffer from treatment in inadequate buildings. By 2026, there would be a shortfall of 543 beds – more than the current size of Western Hospital. Western Health argued the most urgent step was to rebuild the emergency department at Western Hospital to more than double its size. The document flags the need to demolish the dilapidated south block and replace it with a
new in-patient area. New short-stay and acute assessment units at Western Hospital are also needed. Total redevelopment across the two sites would include 448 beds, 39 special-care nursery cots, four new theatres, additional clinics and other services. Speculation is mounting that the state government could make an announcement on funds for rebuilding ahead of the election. But Health Minister David Davis remains tight-lipped about any spending. His spokesman said the Health Department was working closely with Western Health. “Together, they
have developed long-term plans for the health service’s physical infrastructure.” Western Metropolitan Liberal MP Andrew Elsbury said he would lobby the minister on Western Health’s behalf. Greens MP Colleen Hartland said she strongly supported Western Health’s proposal. “There will be a significant detrimental impact on health services to the people of the west if these developments do not occur,” she said. Footscray Labor MP Marsha Thomson said if the government was serious about the rebuild, it would have included funding in its 2014-15 budget.

Dumped levy could leave council short on funds Hobsons Bay’s family day-care providers have had a budget win after the council announced it would scrap a proposed levy amounting to $572 for each educator per year. But the decision leaves the council with a $230,000 funding shortfall for the sector from next month due to changes proposed under the federal budget. Family day-care refers to child-care provided in the home for children aged six weeks to 12 years, with cheaper ratios and costs than in child-care centres. Seaholme’s Kylie Swan, who is among more
than 50 family day-care educators in the municipality, said there were concerns about how the shortfall would be dealt with. “There’s a possibility on a federal level that we will lose our community support program funding because Hobsons Bay actually doesn’t meet any of the eligibility criteria that the Abbott government has set,” she said. Under the proposed legislation, Hobsons Bay would be ineligible for federal funding because it was not a rural area. She said the council stood to lose a significant portion of funding which would jeopardise
family day-care on the whole. The council-run scheme was more at risk because if it couldn’t pay for itself, it wouldn’t continue. “Eventually, parents will have to wear the cost … Carla Northam, who’s the CEO of Family Day Care Australia, estimates that to be about $35 a week on top of what families are already paying for child-care.” Numerous educators in their budget submissions to the council questioned the legality of a new levy, given their current contracts with the council did not expire until September 30.
The end of a swing era By Benjamin Millar Residents of a Seddon street are mourning the loss of a popular tree swing in what they have labelled as unnecessary lopping of tree limbs. Katie Ewing said her family returned home last week to find the much-loved tree swing had been cast over their fence. The limb that had held the swing for more than three years had been chopped off despite being nowhere near the power lines. The pruning work was carried out by professional arborists on behalf of Maribyrnong council. Ms Ewing said the swing had been a popular feature that brought Hobbs Street residents of all ages together. “They chopped it down and pruned the tree without any consultation,” she said. “My partner is a landscape gardener, and he says there was no reason to remove this particular branch with the swing on it.” The swing was originally tied to the tree for her daughter, Lana, who remains upset at the loss. Ms Ewing said the action undermined a push by Maribyrnong council to create friendlier neighbourhoods. “My concern is around the lack of communication to residents and the lack of regard for community engagement activities that things like swings in street trees provide.” Ms Ewing said she understood the need for trees not to interfere with overhead power lines, but objected to work that has left the Hobbs Street trees looking “hacked into” without any community input. “There was no attempt to let us know about the work, no indication at all that it was going to happen,” she said. “The swing wasn’t close to the road or to the footpath.” Council infrastructure and engineering director Ian Butterworth said the majority of feedback council received from residents about tree pruning was positive. “Council does not currently have a specific policy on swings being attached to street trees, however may remove the swings if they are hanging on limbs that need to be pruned.”
Mayor Sandra Wilson said the reason for withdrawing the levy was the financial burden it would have placed on families. “Following further evaluation of the proposed family day-care educator’s levy … it is not intended to proceed with the levy because of its cost on carers and families,” she said. “There is also uncertainty associated with proposed changes by the Australian government to family day-care scheme funding that will, if introduced, deem council ineligible for funding estimated at $230,000 from July, 2015.”
Knife crimes may be linked Police believe two armed hold-ups in Altona were committed by two different men who may have been travelling in the same car. A man was robbed at knifepoint while walking home to Altona from Laverton train station on June 9. Police said a second attempted robbery five minutes later was likely to be linked. The first victim said he had been on his way home from the football but the train he caught ran express from Newport to Laverton. Hobsons Bay Senior Constable Danny Blake said the man was robbed while walking in Maidstone Street, near Wren Street, in Altona, about 12.50am. Senior Constable Blake said the victim handed over $25 after being approached and threatened by a man with a knife. The other man was allegedly held up at knifepoint a short time later. “The second one has occurred about five minutes later, about 300 metres away on the corner of Maidstone Street and Blyth Street, where what we believe to be a different offender has made demands from a second victim for his wallet,” Senior Constable Blake said. He said a man approached the second victim and asked for a cigarette before producing a knife. The victim refused to hand over his wallet and the man ran off to a silver hatchback. The first man was described as southern European in appearance, aged 20-25, with a moustache and was wearing a dark hoodie with grey grid pattern. The second was Caucasian, aged 20-25, with brown hair and wearing a dark hoodie, dark pants and white shoes. Information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 Goya Dmytryshchak

Push to share parking pain By Goya Dmytryshchak Williamstown Chamber of Commerce has called for parking fees to be introduced in Altona and Newport to spread the burden. President Laura Nardo told last week’s council meeting that Williamstown traders strongly objected to plans to increase parking fees in Nelson Place from $3 to $3.30 an hour under the 2014-15 budget. “If the council’s objective is to increase
cash flow, then we would suggest that other neighbourhoods in our municipality begin to share the burden,’’ she said. ‘‘[They should] start paying their way with the introduction of minimal $1 per hour parking meters in heavily-populated streets in Newport and Altona.” As reported by Star Weekly, the council made $884,000 from parking fees and fines in Nelson Place last financial year. Nelson Place is the only street in Hobsons Bay with meters.
Ms Nardo said, ideally, parking should be free across the city. But in lieu of that, ‘‘it’s unfair for Williamstown to have to shoulder the entire burden of increasing council revenue’’. “Before the council considers increasing parking fees in Williamstown, it should seriously consider introducing parking meters in other areas,” she said. Altona Village Traders’ Association president Kim Walsh said traders would
oppose any move to introduce meters in Altona. “Council will have a fight on their hands if it even considers imposing them in Altona,’’ Ms Walsh said. ‘‘We will fight it hammer and tong.” Williamstown traders suggested making a fifth of Nelson Place parking spaces free, with a one-hour limit, or waiving fees before 10am and after 7pm when “over 90 per cent of bays are empty”.

World Cup spin-off may be juniors’ joy While the “wrong” team won, it didn’t dampen the spirits of hundreds of people who flocked to the Barnstoneworth United Junior Football Club in Williamstown to watch Australia in its opening FIFA World Cup match last Saturday. Barnstoneworth president Dave Pettet said there was almost as much excitement in “downtown Hobsons Bay as in Rio” as people watched Chile beat the Socceroos 3-1 in Brazil, on a big screen set up at the club. “We just had a ball. We had most of our 400 kids there and we had good fun … lots of cheering and singing.” The event brought together three tiers of government, boosting Barnstoneworth’s hopes
of fast-tracking the implementation of its master plan for J T Gray Reserve. “We are on a shared reserve – it’s a large reserve but it’s unirrigated,” Pettet said. “We share with two cricket teams and the master plan is to support two things: firstly, the irrigation and development of the ground because obviously without the playing surface we can’t play football; and the second is the clubhouse and changing and toilet facilities.” The club has only one female cubicle to accommodate five girls’ teams and weekend crowds of 1500 spectators. Pettet said the club, which sponsors programs for children with a
disability and from Burma’s Karen community, had players from backgrounds including Asia, Europe, South America and the Middle East. “This makes for lots of different professional club kits at training and while all will be supporting the Socceroos many have a small allegiance to other nations,” Pettet said. He said World Cup fever was expected to result in an influx of children wanting to play soccer. “Continued growth looks inevitable and the facilities and ground won’t cope unless serious short-term funding is made available.” Goya Dmytryshchak
Altona North and Footscray are the two worst car theft hotspots in Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong. New data released by the National Motor Vehicle Theft Reduction Council (NMVTRC) shows 196 vehicles were stolen in Altona North in the four years from 2010. The next-worst suburbs in Hobsons Bay were Laverton (160), Altona Meadows (149), Altona (145) and Williamstown (104). Footscray recorded 443 vehicle thefts, followed by the suburb of Maribyrnong (221), West Footscray (207), Braybrook and Maidstone which each recorded 179, and Yarraville (137). Across Hobsons Bay, 1056 cars, motorbikes and other vehicles were stolen from 2010 to the end of March 2014. The total number of thefts from the city of Maribyrnong was 1568. NMVTRC executive director Ray Carroll said car models without an immobiliser were twice as likely to be stolen. “Increasingly, cars are being stolen from the owner’s residence, either from the driveway or when parked outside overnight. In fact, this is now a bigger risk than parking in a large car park. “If you have off-street parking, use it. If you have more than one car in the family and one is an older non-immobilised car, park an immobilised car behind it in the driveway.” Mr Carroll said thieves were increasingly breaking into homes for car keys and transponders to steal a car. He said keeping keys out of sight could help reduce this type of theft. Goya Dmytryshchak

Op shop keeps the wards working It’s grown from a modest six-bed hospital in 1894 to an elective surgery centre with four theatres and more than 90 beds, but Williamstown Hospital’s vast expansion would not have happened without volunteers. The Williamstown Hospital opportunity shop is calling for more volunteers as the hospital celebrates its 120th anniversary. Op shop staff, who are among 250 Western Health volunteers – including those at Williamstown Hospital, Hazeldean Transition Care and the Western and Sunshine hospitals – were recently shortlisted for a Minister for Health Volunteer Award. Western Health fund-raising co-ordinator Nicky Cooper said many of the improvements at Williamstown Hospital would not have been possible without the op shop volunteers. “Patients in our new dialysis unit are incredibly grateful for the opportunity shop team’s part in providing new dialysis facilities and the hugely improved environment for their dialysis treatment,” Ms Cooper said. “Patients on our lower west and GEM [geriatric evaluation and management] wards have a much more pleasant stay with us now that they have new blinds, providing greater privacy, and freshly painted rooms. “I’m proud to say, though, that this is just the tip of the iceberg.” Western Health board chairman Ralph Willis said the hospital started from a meeting of residents in 1889. They identified the need for a local hospital because of an increase in accidents at the port, railway workshops and growing industrial areas of Newport, Spotswood and Footscray. The hospital was officially opened in 1894 by the defence minister of the day and its first-year running costs were subsidised by a £100 government grant and £104 raised by local churches and factories. The op shop is particularly looking for volunteers to help on Saturdays from 9am-12.30pm or 12.30pm-4pm. Contact 0401 684 977 or nicky.cooper2@wh.org.au. Goya Dmytryshchak

A multi-million-dollar revitalisation of Braybrook is on track with a number of key projects under way. As Maribyrnong council’s two-year Revitalising Braybrook Action Plan nears its halfway mark, a council officers’ report shows 80 per cent of 86 proposed ‘actions’ have begun, with 17 per cent completed. Centrepiece of the plan, the $12.5 million Braybrook Community Hub, is on track for completion early next year. Braybrook is one of the state’s most disadvantaged areas, a situation the council has vowed to tackle. The action plan aims to improve education, transport, employment and training as well as safety, housing and infrastructure. The officers’ report found the council had made good progress over the past year in implementing the key activities. One of the first projects up and running is the Braybrook Community Garden. The council has also distributed $40,000 to community projects in Braybrook, including bike maintenance and space activation projects. The council and community health provider Cohealth have each put $20,000 toward health service delivery at Dinjerra Primary School. The Department of Justice is spending $25,000 on a ‘Beautifying Braybrook’ graffiti prevention project, funding an artist to work with young people, while Women’s Health West plans to relocate to the former Howard Kingham Lodge after signing a 21-year lease with the council. A roundtable will be held in September to ensure stakeholders remain committed to the plan. Benjamin Millar
Residents seek budget answers By Goya Dmytryshchak Hobsons Bay Residents Association has questioned whether the council plans to buy the former Laverton Primary School site with $2.3 million allocated in next year’s budget for a “confidential acquisition” in Wetlands ward. HBRA co-convener Cameron McCurley said the council should consult the community about what it planned to do with such a large sum of ratepayers’ money. A council acquisition of the site could stop developers moving in.
Mr McCurley, a former public housing buyer for the Department of Human Services (DHS), questioned why the council wouldn’t consider buying a former school site in Altona, which residents fear could be used for medium-density or social housing. “We asked the question, if you’re going to think about Laverton then why not think about Altona?” He said residents were most concerned about a cluster of social housing on the site. He said cluster housing could lead to all sorts of problems.
“When we were spot-purchasing, there were never two DHS properties side by side. ‘‘If council has allocated some funds in the budget that’s going to be passed without any consultation, well that’s simply not on. At least let the community know before you lock the ratepayers in to something.’’ Education Department spokesman Simon Craig said the former Altona Gate, Altona West, Eastona Park and Laverton primary schools were surplus to the department’s needs. He said the department had had discussions with the council about the vacant
school sites, “as per government policy”. Late last year, Planning Minister Matthew Guy established an advisory committee to decide the future of the sites. They are likely to be rezoned for residential development against the council’s wishes. Hobsons Bay mayor Sandra Wilson said the council would not comment on proposed commercial acquisitions. “If the timing, price and conditions are right, any council that has a vision to the future would put its foot on new assets or parcels of land that may deliver on a community need.”

Figures in the submission show Strand ward will get $10.2 million, compared with $2.6 million for Cherry Lake ward and $3.4 million for Wetlands. In 2013-14, Strand ward received and $8 million, Cherry Lake $1.5 million Wetlands ward $1.1 million. The HBRA submission said council last debt would rise from $1.6 million July financial year to $16.5 million by than 2015. “This is an increase of more years.’’ two just 930 per cent in The submission also questioned what the council was buying for $2.3 million in Wetlands ward. “There is another confidential of acquisition in Wetlands ward $2.3 million, which is proceeding, financed completely from borrowings,” the submission states. “Why is the council treating this
confidentially?’’ Star Weekly asked the council several questions about the HBRA’s concerns. Mayor Sandra Wilson replied: “We won’t be responding until we’ve considered the the submission and responded to HBRA directly.” Goya Dmytryshchak

Parking policy misguided
How crazy our council is to prevent us from parking in front of our own driveways (‘Ghost town fee uproar’, Star Weekly, June 11). The council is hiding behind an old law that effectively says driveways must be kept clear in case of an emergency. If residents were allowed to park in this way, we would be helping the parking situation by making more public spots available for others. This would ensure that nobody else blocked our driveway, meaning that emergency services would have access in the case of a fire. As for fees, it appears that Hobsons Bay council thinks it’s as important as Melbourne City Council and its ‘‘lords’’ by charging $3 or more. Ian Thomas, Williamstown

Search for stolen dogs
I really hope the dogs being stolen from the western suburbs are returned and are not used for fighting (Fears for stolen dog, Star Weekly, June 4). But the sad truth is that most stolen dogs probably die horrible and painful deaths because their owners weren’t responsible enough to keep them safe. If you love your dogs, don’t leave them outside when you’re not watching them. Don’t let them run around without a leash and keep them indoors locked up when you’re going out. You wouldn’t leave your child outside alone so don’t put your pet at risk either. Ellen Anderson, via web Ellen Anderson, it’s not the owner’s fault that the dogs got taken. And we shouldn’t have to live in fear. Your property is your own. You and your family should feel safe at all times and be
able to defend it at all costs without fear of prosecution. Mike, via web This is disgusting. I hate the thought that people can be so cruel as to steal other people’s pets to create dog fights, using smaller, defenceless dogs as bait. These people deserve to rot in prison! And, Ellen, I think it’s unfair to blame the owner as leaving a dog inside is not always an option. Michelle, via web
Budget queries must be answered
Hobsons Bay council continues to refuse to release its figures. What is it hiding? The council refuses to answer the resident association’s requests for details about how much is being allocated to each suburb and each ward in Hobsons Bay, what the repayments of new loans will be, and how certain projects have suddenly become priorities over others. Council knows this is an irresponsible, unsustainable budget, being based on the political wishes of a few councillors who are willing to expose ratepayers to extra rates for their own political gain.

Pair clash over car park bid
Rach Scoble, Tina gladigau, Julia Page anD angela Gatt

By Goya Dmytryshchak Four women from Altona and Altona Meadows are almost halfway towards a $10,000 target as they seek to help the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre tackle women’s cancers. The women are preparing to take part in Peter Mac’s next 60-kilometre charity walk, dubbed the Weekend to End Women’s Cancers. Rach Scoble, Tina Gladigau, Julia Page and Angela Gatt will walk a route that has yet to be revealed from February 28 to March 1 next year. Three of the friends completed the previous charity walk earlier this year, raising more than $8000. None of the team members has been personally affected by cancer, saying their commitment was based on a desire to support women everywhere. “We chose something that was a good physical challenge,” Ms Scoble said. “It’s an amazing event to be part of.” Having already raised $4000 towards next year’s total, the team hopes to “top up its account” with a family fun fair at Altona Sports Club from 1-5pm on July 20. The fund-raiser will include face-painting, a jumping castle, balloonist, fire truck and police car, and a visit by Melbourne Aces baseball club’s mascot, Maverick. Ms Scoble said many people had donated services for the event. “We’re very humbled by how generous people are. Everybody’s just been so very kind, which makes what we’re doing a whole lot easier.” Family tickets are $10. To book, phone 0403 476 317 or 0407 518 973.

Anger boiled over at last week’s Hobsons Bay council meeting as dozens of members of the Maltese Association Hobsons Bay vented frustration at missing out – for a seventh year – on budget funding to expand their six-space car park for 700 members. As reported by Star Weekly, the association’s membership has swelled, yet its Altona East car park has only a handful of spaces. Addressing mayor Sandra Wilson, association president Joe Attard said she had promised members funding in the 2014-15 budget at a meeting on March 25. “At that meeting, in front of 315 people, you promised us that it was going to be in this budget,” Mr Attard said. “Last year, we received a letter from the council telling us it’s definitely going to [happen in] 2014-15 and engineers are going to work with us. It never eventuated.” But there was no budget joy forthcoming with Cr Wilson responding that at no time did she make a promise of funding at the March 25 meeting. Mr Attard responded: “Sorry, madam, what you’re saying is not true.” A member of the gallery shouted: “Bullshit, we voted you in and now you’re turning on us”. Cr Wilson has previously said funding for car parks was determined by community need. “The Maltese Association car park … was considered last year during the mid-year review but did not make the budget.” Goya Dmytryshchak

Mobil protests at ‘rate buden’ ExxonMobil says it has been lumped with a “significant rate burden” in the Hobsons Bay council’s 2014-15 budget. Consultant Hamish McKnight, acting for ExxonMobil, said his client’s seven properties in Hobsons Bay accounted for half of the total rates paid on 22 petrochemical properties in the city. He said the differential rate levied by Hobsons Bay council was ExxonMobil’s second-highest “rates burden” nationwide after those in Wellington Shire in Victoria’s east. Mr McKnight, an associate director with Urbis, said the petrochemical rate in Hobsons Bay was four times higher than the lowest differential rate and was the maximum allowed under law. “We are seeking council’s consideration towards merging the petrochemical and industrial differential rating category,” Mr McKnight said. “With respect to Victoria, the only other local government I’m aware of that has a petrochemical differential rating category is the City of Greater Geelong.” Exxon’s submission states that Geelong’s petrochemical rates are 5.1 per cent less than those in Hobsons Bay. “Other local government areas (LGAs) in Victoria with comparable properties within their rating base are Wellington Shire and Mornington Peninsula Shire,” Mr McKnight said.
“Both these LGAs levy a general rate on the petrochemical assessments.” ExxonMobil Australia is part of ExxonMobil, which is the world’s second-largest oil and gas company. The ExxonMobil Altona refinery supplies half of Victoria’s fuel. This year’s Hobsons Bay rates are set according to property values as at January 1.
‘‘
We are seeking council’s consideration towards merging the petrochemical and industrial differential rating category
’’
- Hamish McKnight
While commercial and industrial properties increased in capital improved value by 10.53 and 12.73 per cent, respectively, the value of petrochemical properties fell 1.63 per cent. A council officer’s report said that in recent years the council had applied rating differentials for commercial and industrial rates that were 2.6 and 3.5 times the residential rate, respectively. Mayor Sandra Wilson said ExxonMobil’s submission would be considered as part of the council’s budget deliberations. “Council will advise ExxonMobil of its decision once the budget has been adopted on July 8,” she said.

Forest of helping hands By Goya Dmytryshchak Residents will this month join agencies and 14 Brooklyn businesses to plant 500 native trees and shrubs along the Federation Trail bike and pedestrian path in Brooklyn. The planting is part of the Department of Primary Industries’ 2 Million Trees plan., Brooklyn Residents Action Group (BRAG) president Bert Boere said as part of the project site filling, mulching, path building and grass seeding have been completed. “It’s proposed to plant 2400 indigenous trees and shrubs along the section of the Federation Trail between Geelong Road and Kororoit Creek, Brooklyn,” he said. “This section of trail will complement the section between Geelong Road and Millers Road, Brooklyn, planted by the Brooklyn community last year.” Friends of Lower Kororoit Creek president and BRAG special projects manager Geoff Mitchelmore said it was “extremely gratifying” to see Brooklyn industries and local and state agencies taking part in the community project. The planting starts 10am on June 29, with interested residents invited to meet at the entry to the Transpacific tip (Melway map 40 G9). There will be an official celebration at noon with a free barbecue catered by Altona Lions, Cedar Meats and Bakers Delight. Saplings will be planted by Friends of Lower Kororoit Creek, Melbourne Water, VicRoads, Brimbank council, the Environment Protection Authority, Toyota and Corrections Victoria. Mr Boere said Brooklyn businesses which would help with the planting included Transpacific, Delta Demolitions, Sunshine Groupe, Australian Tallow, Cedar Meats, Fulton Hogan, Sims Metals, Veolia, APA Group, City Circle, JBS Australia and Marks Henderson.

Drink-driver shuns warning
Bayside College student Jake Wilkinson was chuffed last week to check out his winning photograph emblazoned on a flag at Altona Meadows Skate Park. His photograph, dubbed Riding is Timeless, won the creative expression category of Hobsons Bay’s fourth annual Pixel8 competition. The competition, started by Victoria Police, is aimed at promoting positive images of the city’s young people who enjoy art and culture. Emmanuel College student Khoi Nguyen won the community harmony category with a work titled Anzac Day Tribute, while Williamstown High School’s Emilia McSherry won the community well-being category with a photo of two friends at Williamstown Beach titled J oy. Winners and runners-up will have their work displayed at the skate park this month. Winning photographs will then be displayed at local police stations, the Hobsons Bay Civic Centre and Altona Gate shopping centre. Hobsons Bay police’s Inspector Richard Paterson said the competition brought young people closer to their surroundings. “I see Pixel8 as an excellent opportunity for young people in Hobsons Bay to view their community through a camera lens and gain an appreciation of the great place where we live and work,” he said. “This year’s entrants have done a terrific job … now we can share their photos and keep them as a record forever.” Runners-up were Amy Venema of Laverton P-12 College (community harmony), Ana Mihajlovic of Williamstown High School (community well-being) and Kaleisha Crundall of Williamstown High School (creative expression). Williamstown High School received $500 for having the most entrants.

A Werribee man crashed his car into a traffic light after allegedly driving with a blood alcohol reading of almost five times the legal limit. Police said the man, 22, was trying to turn right from Heaths Road to Derrimut Road in his Audi about 8am on June 7. Senior Sergeant Damien Madden said the man appeared to be drunk and he recorded a breath reading of .23. Senior Sergeant Madden said the man was driving an unregistered car and his licence had been suspended. He was driven home by police, who were concerned for his safety. But Senior Sergeant Madden said the man did not stay at home and was later arrested for being drunk in a public place. He was put in a cell in Sunshine to sober up. The man has been charged with careless driving, driving under the influence of alcohol, driving while suspended, driving an unregistered vehicle and exceeding the prescribed concentration of alcohol. He will appear at Werribee Magistrates Court on a date yet to be fixed. Police also arrested a Truganina man who was allegedly drink-driving on Kororoit Creek Road, Altona on June 8. The man, 24, was stopped by police after allegedly driving at 124km/h in an 80km/h zone. Police allege the man’s international driver’s licence had expired. He was taken to Williamstown police station, where he recorded a breath alcohol reading of .052. Laura Michell

Naked anger over cove cover-up By Laura Michell A Werribee nudist has accused the council of “stripping away her freedom” after it announced that a Werribee South beach’s clothing-optional status was under review. The woman, who asked not to be named, accused the council of trying to tell people how to behave by reviewing the suitability of beachgoers bathing in the nude at Campbells Cove. She said the council did not have the right to force people to cover up and should
‘‘

There are still a lot of The council announced the review last month, believing the beach was not as secluded as it people using the beach used to be. - Werribee nudist Campbells Cove is one of only four official clothing-optional beaches in Victoria. The others are Point Impossible and Southside at Overall, the council received 31 submissions Torquay and Sunnyside North at Mount Eliza. over a three-week period. The Werribee nudist is not alone in her bid The nudist, who has been using the beach for to have the beach remain clothing-optional, more than 30 years, said Campbells Cove was with the council receiving 10 submissions to its mainly used by elderly people from across the review calling for people to be allowed to bathe western suburbs who did not want to travel to in the buff.

“There are still a lot of people using the beach,” she said. “We want to be able to go there and take our clothes off. It is our right to do that. The other beaches are too far away.” Council infrastructure director Nerina DiLorenzo said the submissions would become part of a report submitted to a meeting at which councillors will consider whether to revoke the beach’s clothing-optional status. Any decision to change Campbells Cove’s status will need to be approved by Planning Minister Matthew Guy.

Adonai says painting is a great way to share difficult stories. “When it comes to sensitive communication, painting seems to me the right medium to communicate with people. “My main focus is always life, the human aspect. People seem to create an attachment to certain works.” Adonai’s first solo exhibition, I Did Not Choose To Be A Refugee, is at the Joel Gallery, Altona, until June 27.
The Werribee resident says he wants to give people an awareness of the struggles faced by refugees. “I came from Eritrea. It’s a hostile area full of war and drought; that’s why I’m always interested in the human condition. “For the last 30 years my works evolved around these topics.” Adonai, one of Eritrea’s most celebrated contemporary artists, has also exhibited in the US, Europe, Middle East, Singapore and Japan. Last year he took part in an emerging cultural leaders’ program through the FCAC. His masterclass is suitable for all artists, from beginners to advanced. Cost is $95 ($75 concession); book at www. footscrayarts.com. Benjamin Millar

(Supplied)
By Benjamin Millar
Back on stage, just for laughs Comedian Adam Hills will return to the stage in Yarraville this month for a rare stand-up show. The Yarraville resident has performed far and wide but is relishing the chance to share his stand-up with a local crowd at the Yarraville Club on June 28. Hills has achieved international acclaim as one of the world’s best comics. He’s fitting in the show during a break hosting The Last Leg, his UK TV series offering a joyful, off-beat take on events of the week. Hills will be joined for the Yarraville show by comedian Josh Earl, who has taken his place as host of ABC TV’s Spicks & Specks. Earl has shared stages with the likes of Tim Minchin, Russell Kane and Arj Barker and is a favourite with comedy festival audiences all over the country.

A multicultural leader from Footscray is stepping onto the national stage to provide a voice for her generation. Salma Sumar has been elected youth chairwoman of the Federation of Ethnic Communities Council Australia, the peak national body representing Australians from culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds. Ms Sumar, 27, said FECCA worked to fight against discrimination and racism. Her role will be to advocate and promote issues on behalf of the nation’s young people to all levels of government, business and the broader community. “I will work hard to promote joint action and co-operation between ethnic communities on issues of common concern,” she said. Ms Sumar became involved in multicultural issues while living in Tasmania and has continued her activism since arriving in Melbourne about eight years ago. “I did a lot of work with the CALD, refugee and migrant community down in Tasmania,” she said. “I started when I was quite young, about 13 or 14, organising International Women’s Day and other community events and some workshops.” Ms Sumar was born in India and lived
in Dubai and Britain before migrating to Australia. She has a masters of public health degree and is researching health issues that affect CALD youth. She sees education as the key to ensuring young people feel part of Australian history and culture. Ms Sumar’s first goal as youth chairwoman is to develop a “toolkit” to help young jobseekers find work. “Many young people from CALD backgrounds face difficulties with language acquisition,” she said.
‘‘
I will work hard to promote joint action and co-operation - Salma Sumar
’’
“This has a significant impact on their ability to understand and benefit from the formal Australian education system and seek out employment opportunities.” Ms Sumar said she also looks forward to working with FECCA’s youth advisory committee, which is undertaking a join project with the University of Technology in Sydney focused on cyber-racism. “The aim of the project is to explore the extent to which social media can be used positively to build community resilience in the face of cyber-racism.”

Off-cuts suit eco-artist By Benjamin Millar Not a skerrick or a scrap goes to waste in the screen-printing work of Leslie Keating. The Kingsville resident has turned her love of craft into a creative career, earning a loyal following for her eco-friendly, sustainable screen-printed products. Keating says she’s looking forward to exhibiting her work as part of the coming Melbourne Craft and Quilt Fair. Her one-off creations use only organically grown, sustainably made materials with water-based solvent-free paints hand-mixed to create unique colours. “Being environmentally friendly is not always easy,” she says. ‘‘I have to source some of my materials as far as India to make sure they are completely organic, but the quality and eco-footprint make it well worth it.” Keating will be exhibiting her toy-making kits, fabric panels and fabric sample packs, as well as dropcloth art, one of the most popular items available at her online store Maze and Vale. Her dropcloth art is created by recycling the off-cuts of her screen printing process. The dropcloths pick up splashes of paints and random segments of screen printing designs. “I could never reproduce the abstract and unpredictable nature of the dropsheet pieces. It’s great that I get to recycle my materials from a sustainability point of view, but as a designer, it’s frustrating I couldn’t replicate the beautiful pieces if I tried!” The Melbourne Craft and Quilt Fair is at the Melbourne Convention and Exhibition Centre from June 26-29.

Dine amid the riverine beauty Beautiful scenery, a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere and delicious food are what the iconic Maribyrnong Boathouse is all about. The Boathouse sits on the banks of the Maribyrnong River, a little oasis of gum trees, sloping grass banks and old river terraces. The menu is Mediterranean but maintains a strong focus on the local region, season and quality, and is inspired by the people who grow the produce. Owner chef and MasterChef judge Gary Mehigan’s passion for food is deeply ingrained in the business’s philosophy. “We love food, we immerse ourselves in it and we care deeply where our food comes from. We want to feed you and look after you and we want to make you smile,” he says. “For the past 10 years we have built a solid foundation based on our award-winning wood-fired pizza, which are thin, crispy and made the Italian way with Tipo 00 flour and love. Our pizza is the heart and soul of the kitchen – we love it our way. As well, we have launched a grill selection and a very healthy salad selection.” On one of Melbourne’s best waterfront dining locations, the Boathouse hosts private and corporate events and weddings weekly. Miso lamb ribs with garlic, ginger and eggplant pickle or pan-fried prawns, chorizo and spiced chickpeas are among the favourites on the starters menu. Diners also enjoy the popular pear, gorgonzola, prosciutto and rocket pizza, or steak sandwich with onion slaw and maple bacon for main. Gary’s cheesecake, toasted nut crumble and rhubarb syrup or chocolate marmalade pudding with vanilla ice cream are a great way to round off a stunning meal. Mehigan says food is an extremely personal thing and he feels blessed to have some of the world’s best produce on hand. “As food artisans here in Victoria, we love the whole process, almost like welcoming someone into our home, always with a warm smile and generous sense of hospitality: feed them, make them smile and do it all again tomorrow.” The Maribyrnong Boathouse, 7 The Boulevard, Moonee Ponds. Opens 8.30am till late seven days. Inquiries: 9375 2456 or www.theboat-house.com.au.
Delicious food and a warm welcome are guaranteed at Gary Mehigan’s Boathouse.

Dynamic Hong Kong Star Weekly’s Stephen Linnell says the harbourside city-state is no longer a cheap shopping destination, but it’s still well worth a visit. It used to be known as Asia’s shopping paradise – the place to visit if you were looking for cheap clothes, watches and camera gear. Those days appear to be a thing of the past. Even allowing for the exchange rate, most items in Hong Kong are comparable in price to those in major Australian cities. Of course, there are still bargains to be had, particularly if you make your way to the many markets that exist in and around Hong Kong and Kowloon. But on the whole, the cost of food and goods is about the same as Melbourne. Shopping aside, Hong Kong has plenty to offer as a tourist attraction. Here are five “must-do’s”:

Ride the rail. The MTR system lives up to its reputation as the best rapid transit commuter train network in the world. It’s fast, efficient and clean. English is all you need to know to get around. The colour-coded maps are easy to read and street signage is in abundance. It all means you never get lost. There’s no need to catch cabs, as the rail extends all the way from the airport to any major accommodation destination either on Hong Kong Island itself, Kowloon, or even to Shenzhen on the Chinese mainland border. Quite simply, the MTR – with its cheap Octopus card, outstanding speed and incredible efficiency – makes our Metro system seem like a throwback to the 1920s. You’ll never want to travel on the Werribee line again.

which included a return ferry service back to Kowloon. From the salt and pepper squid to the magnificent cheese-baked scallops, the meals were fantastic. If you’re game, you can hike the many trails or simply enjoy the laid-back beaches that surround the island.
Catch an afternoon ferry to Lamma Island – Hong Kong’s third largest island – and enjoy a fabulous sunset while grazing on seafood and wine. Pick from any number of restaurants along the waterfront. None will disappoint. We ate at the Rainbow Seafood restaurant,

The views of Victoria Harbour are among the best in the world, by day or night. More than 7000 skyscrapers hug the Hong Kong skyline. It makes the entire Melbourne CBD appear to be nothing more than a Hong Kong suburb. The best places to enjoy the experience are from The Peak, a major tourist attraction, as well as sky100, Hong Kong’s tallest building at 393 metres above sea level, which offers uninterrupted panoramic views. The memorable tram journey up a 90-degree mountain to The Peak is an experience in itself, just as much as the 60-second ride up the lift to the 100th floor of the International Commerce Centre building.

You can’t enjoy the Asian experience unless you go to all the markets, day and night. They are a highlight of every Asian holiday. From Bangkok to Ho Chi Minh City, market life is an important part of the Asian experience. Hong Kong has a number of them, the best of which is the ladies’ market in Mong Kok, a short journey via the MTR. It has all you would expect, including clothes, handbags, accessories, jewellery, hats and the normal assortment of T-shirts and souvenirs. There are others, such as the Temple Street market, which has a number of outdoor eating venues, and the Stanley market on Hong Kong Island.

Make it to Macau. Even if you are staying in Hong Kong for a short time, a one-hour fast ferry to Macau is worth it. There, you see the best and the worst of commercialism, gaming and extravagance, mixed with the subtle beauty of old-world Portugal. Outside the extraordinary gaming hotels and facilities lies old Macau, including some of the best restaurant experiences you could imagine. We dined at Corto restaurant and enjoyed exquisite seafood with a Portuguese twist. Tucked away in skinny sidestreets, the “Old Town”, as it’s known, has a grace and charm of yesteryear that is difficult to replicate. It’s one of the must-see experiences.

Seddon 77 Williamstown Road, 3011 Sweeney Estate Agents Yarraville: 9687 8388 Price: $560,000 – $610,000 Auction: June 28 at noon It’s like stepping back in time with this Edwardian period property, one that’s been built to last. Held by generations of a single family since it was built, its original features have remain untouched for more than 100 years. The original ivory-coloured brick facade has a sheltered verandah framed by white detailed timber brackets and valance. Its red corrugated-iron roof and window canopy complete the traditional heritage look. Entry is through the richly timbered hallway with picture rails and archway with intricate fretwork.
To the left is the main bedroom with original fireplace (filled in), while to the right, the light-filled lounge room has an original fireplace (filled in) and mantelpiece. Two smaller bedrooms branch off the hallway, one with built-in timber wardrobe and desk. At the back is the basic kitchen-diner with small butler’s pantry, freestanding oven and small sink. High ceilings open up the space and stunning plasterwork, mouldings, cornices and deep skirts are throughout the house. Original leaded glass floral patterns adorn

Gambling with full deck Laverton 5/27-29 Grace Street
For SaLe
While we are all aware of the dangers of leaving kids unaccompanied by adults when in or near backyard pools, the dangers of decks and balconies are less talked about. Managing director of Homesafe Group, Robert Caulfield, an Australian architect specialising in safety designs for properties, said it’s something that should be more prominent in people’s minds. “Every deck or balcony when built should display a simple safety load level in a form home-owners can understand and such information should be included in the sale documents of all properties, including residential and commercial,” Mr Caulfield said.

Many ... fail to see the legal ramifications and massive costs - Robert Caulfield
Single Level Convenience

This bright single level spacious two bedroom villa unit represents great value for investors, first home buyers and even empty nesters. Only moments away from Laverton zone 1 train station, Central Square shopping centre, open parkland and local schools. This well maintained property features a large living area filled with natural light flowing into the open plan kitchen/ meals area. Two great sized bedrooms, each with builtin robes, surround a central bathroom.

“People buying or renting homes should ensure they have the condition of the deck or balcony assessed in the interest of their safety before they move in.” Mr Caulfield said the on-going deaths and serious injuries, usually reported around Christmas and New Year when large groups of people assemble on domestic decks or balconies for celebrations, continue year after year. “The problem for many home owners and investors who rent out properties is they fail to see the legal ramifications and massive costs which can follow a balcony or deck collapse.” He advises people with decks and balconies to constantly monitor the condition of their decks and balconies
Any balcony needs careful monitoring to ensure safe enjoyment. (Supplied)
and at any sign of deterioration should immediately have it repaired. “Underlying the danger is the presence of rotting timber, poor construction, lack of maintenance and a combination of harsh climates and the impact of salt, especially on decks or balconies built on the coast.” Mr Caulfield says the Homesafe Group specialises in designing a safe residence and safe renovations and places the deck and balcony as a hot spot for potential serious injury.

51 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 18, 2014
SPORT Seagulls waver in rain By Liam Twomey
■ In recent months there has been an avalanche of rubbish saying I have it in for Deer Park – that I am against the club and the way it goes about its business. Nothing could be further from the truth. Yes, I have expressed my point of view about money in local footy – but what’s wrong with that? Last Saturday, during our pre-game show on 88.9 WYN FM, I fronted Deer Park president Mark McGoldrick about the matter and I think we sorted it out. I like Mark, always have. I hope the people who send me poisonous emails were listening because your president doesn’t have a problem with my stance. He acknowledged that the club pays its players well, and I have no problem with that. Mark spoke about the club’s junior development, which sounds very healthy. I wish Deer Park all the best in the Western Region Football League. Do I want an even competition where all games are just a kick the difference? Of course I do, but that will never happen under the current set-up. I love the passion that people have for their clubs but, please, don’t think you are above reproach. I have never said I have all the answers, but I am allowed to ask the questions and express an opinion, as everyone is. ■ What a wonderful win by the Western Bulldogs over Collingwood. I am happy to say I thought the Bulldogs were no hope. I warned my son that it was highly likely his team would get done like a dinner. When I arrived home after watching Werribee go down by a point to Essendon in the VFL, quite frankly I was in no mood to watch the Dogs capitulate to Collingwood. I was delighted with what I saw as I’m sure every Bulldogs fan was, especially those who have taken to social media to criticise the coach and his game plan. I hope that egg on your faces tastes good.
Scott Clouston was Williamstown’s leading goalscorer at the weekend. (Kristian Scott)
Tigers left to rue their rash of errors
Ben Brown booted three goals for Werribee against Essendon on Sunday. (Shawn Smits)
Werribee was on the wrong end of a tight finish on Sunday, the Tigers going down to Essendon by a single point in their Victorian Football League clash. Both teams controlled long periods of the see-sawing match at Avalon Airport Oval. After giving up a 14-point lead at quartertime, the Tigers came roaring back in the second term with six goals. It wasn’t just at the attacking end that Werribee played some of its best football, with the side’s defence close to impenetrable. The Tigers kept Essendon goalless in the second term and took an 18-point lead into the main break. But when play resumed it was Essendon’s turn to seize control as the Bombers reclaimed the lead. Essendon booted 7.4 for the quarter and was intent on making sure it didn’t allow the Tigers back into the match. Despite losing the final term by seven points, the Bombers held on to secure the narrowest of wins, 14.14 (98) to 15.7 (97). Werribee coach John Lamont was disappointed his side couldn’t maintain its lead. “We didn’t think we started as well as we
52 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 18, 2014
would have liked, but we were able to get our game going in the second quarter and create a good buffer,’’ he said. “After that we just made mistakes at key times. We turned it over a couple of times and, defensively, we missed some tackles.’’ But Lamont said the match had been a good challenge for his group. “Having being beaten by a point, some people outside the club tend to focus on that last couple of minutes, but there were things that happened throughout the game that cost us.” After being dropped by North Melbourne, Werribee’s Majak Daw pushed his case for a senior recall with a near-best-on-ground performance. He received support from fellow North Melbourne forward Ben Brown, who kicked three goals. Leroy Jetta was the Bombers’ best player. Werribee dropped to seventh on the VFL ladder, while the Bombers jumped to 11th. The Tigers (5-4) will look to bounce back on Saturday when they take on Geelong (5-4) at Simonds Stadium. Liam Twomey
■ Life memberships in the Werribee Football Club have been awarded to Stephen Sells, Anthony Eames, Paul Satterly and Michael Frost. Sells won the Field Medal when Werribee was a division 2 club, and the other three are Liston medallists. Frost, who unfortunately could not make it to the presentation, has a remarkable story. As well as the Liston he won two club best and fairests, two Barry Priest medals in the WRFL and a best and fairest when he played for the Yarrawonga Pigeons. Life membership is a very special honour and it was great to see how much it meant to these decorated footballers.

WESTPOINT 402309-MD20402308-MD20-9
Williamstown’s mid-season run of good form came to a sudden halt in a 21-point loss to Box Hill Hawks in the VFL on Saturday. The Seagulls were far from disgraced as they pushed the reigning premier throughout the match, even looking a likely winner at times. But the result was still a 14.9 (93) to 10.12 (72). The result leaves Williamstown (6-4) in fourth place as one of three teams on 24 points, behind Footscray Bulldogs and ahead of Collingwood on percentage. The Seagulls didn’t make a great start and the early stages at Box Hill City Oval proved tough as the Hawks jumped out to a 15-point lead by the first break. From there the Seagulls were able to find their groove, beginning to look more assured. Williamstown closed the margin to nine points at the main break before producing some of its best football in a blistering third term. The Seagulls managed to shut the Hawks down at the defensive end and conceded only one goal for the quarter while booting four themselves to take a 10-point lead into the final break. But in pouring rain, Box Hill managed to overrun Williamstown in the final 15 minutes, kicking six goals to one. In a match played under finals-like intensity, Ben Davies again showed his class to be one of the best players for the Seagulls. Around the ground, Kane Lambert was also strong while forward Scott Clouston continued his good year with a bag of three. He has kicked 19 goals from nine matches this season. For Box Hill, Sam Iles was hard to stop, producing yet another strong game for the Hawks. He was well supported by Dallas Willsmore, who kicked four goals. When round 11 begins this weekend, the Seagulls will take on Sandringham at Burbank Oval on Sunday. In other VFL results, the Footscray Bulldogs produced arguably their best win since going standalone, defeating Port Melbourne by 36 points. Travelling to one of the competition’s toughest venues at North Port Oval didn’t bother the young Bulldogs, who played some outstanding football on their way to the 19.8 (122) to 13.8 (86) win.

Nothing like local support
My first six months
good friend of mine grew up in Braybrook, less than a mile or two from the hallowed turf of the Whitten Oval. Despite her western suburbs pedigree, she and her family are Richmond supporters. No amount of inducements of “rooms after the game” or “meet the coach” – perks a conniving president has up his sleeve – could budge her son Jack as a true Tiger. For most people, choice of team is (rightly) a matter of fun and family. But, truthfully, it’s always grated on me that the west does not have as a community the sense of fierce universal devotion to one club like Liverpool does, or the City of Geelong or Fremantle. Because that sense of belonging to a place, a community, is no better exemplified than the shared senses of joy, expectation and crushed hopes that ebb and flow with a community’s major sporting team. Our historical position as the team of the west has been handicapped by many years of inattention to the importance of the region to Aussie Rules, and while we are now starting to address that more seriously with the AFL, it’s the successive generations of kids of the west who have been the real losers. A senior footy journalist recently told me we were losing our relevance and I, as president, needed to have my voice heard more. I told her our battle for hearts and minds would not be won by a president talking equalisation politics on talk shows, but by Liam Jones kicking eight and by Tom Liberatore tearing the heart out of an opposition in the midfield. Shortly after Sunday’s win against Collingwood, my friend texted me: “Yay! Jack said we should change to the Bulldogs.” In that joyful hour after the game, when the phone rattled like the Energizer bunny on Sunday night, that text was the most important.
y first six months at the Western Bulldogs Football Club have been quite surreal, to say the least. After being selected with pick 60 in the national draft, I was quickly met with calls and texts from friends, family, coaches and players congratulating me on being drafted into the AFL. However, when I walked into the club on my first day, it was like nothing I ever imagined. My first few weeks at the club were a huge learning experience and it took me a while to feel comfortable in my new surroundings. It was full of training, weights, physio, meetings and a lot of recovering. It seemed like all I was doing in my first few weeks was eating and sleeping. However, once I was settled in and accustomed to the new workload I knew that I was in for an experience that I would never forget. Before I knew it, the Christmas holidays were over and preseason training was in full swing. The workload increased, the weights got heavier and the recovery after sessions had never been so important. My aim after Christmas and the New Year was to stay out on the track as long as I could and try not to break down. Luckily enough for me I didn’t miss a session and it put me in good stead for my first AFL season. After a long preseason the practice matches and NAB Challenge matches were finally upon us. I was lucky enough to be selected for matches against Fremantle and Carlton. Although they were only practice matches, it was fantastic to get out and play seniors for the first time and it was an experience that I will cherish and remember for a long time. The first six months have been tiring, enjoyable, demanding and exciting. I am really enjoying my time at the Bulldogs and I hope I can continue to develop and learn so I can become a better footballer.

Vikings unable to rein in Saints By Liam Twomey St Albans capped off a strong first half of the Western Region Football League season with a 23-point win over Altona on Saturday. The Saints kicked seven goals to jump to a four-goal lead by quarter-time and while the Vikings battled bravely, the Saints remained in control to record a 19.9 (123) to 15.10 (100) win. Altona had more scoring opportunities in the second quarter, but the Saints held sway with four goals of their own to extend the lead to 27 by the main break. The Vikings continued to work hard in the second half, but there was no stopping the Saints in front of their home crowd. Saints coach Marcus Barclay was happy with a win against a dangerous opponent. “We got four or five goals in front about three or four times and just couldn’t kick the next couple,’’ he said. “[Altona] fought hard and it
became goal for goal in the last three quarters. We’ve jumped out of the blocks quite well all year. We just need to maintain it now … that will be the plan for the next nine weeks.” Trent Rafferty worked hard for Altona to be one of the Vikings’ best players, while James Flack kicked four goals. The Saints put up an even performance across the field, with 12 players scoring at least one goal. The win opened up a 12-point gap between fourth-placed St Albans (6-3) and seventh-placed Altona, one of three sides with a 3-6 record. In other division 1 results Albion beat Port Melbourne, Deer Park edged out Hoppers Crossing, Spotswood was too strong for Sunshine, and Werribee Districts accounted for Yarraville-Seddon. In round 10 this Saturday, St Albans takes on unbeaten Deer Park, while Altona will face Albion. Josh Russo and his Altona teammates lost to St Albans by 23 points. (Wayne Hawkins)

Flying Falcons remain unbeaten City West Falcons enter the Victorian Netball League finals as red-hot favourites after completing an undefeated home-and-away season. The Falcons recorded their 18th consecutive win in style, smashing the Geelong Cougars by 20 goals last Wednesday. It wasn’t always easy, with City West forced to fight during a tough first quarter. However, after taking a one-goal lead into the break, the Falcons found their range and were able to shake off Geelong to secure a 62-42 win. Kath Knott continued her outstanding form with a haul of 34 goals, while Alice
Teague-Neeld didn’t miss a shot on her way to 18 goals. City West coach Marg Lind said the Cougars were fairly aggressive and contested every ball early on. ‘‘I think we gradually built across the course of the game,’’ she said. ‘‘It just took us a little while to adjust and make sure we got our strategic approaches right. Once we did that we were able to run away with it.” City West finished the season five games clear on top of the ladder. Lind said going undefeated was a massive achievement. ‘‘There have been quite a few games this year
54 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 18, 2014
where we could have easily lost. I think that’s a real compliment to the team, that they are able to pull themselves out under pressure. ‘‘Whether or not they can finish the season, that’s a whole other test again.” VU Western Lightning had its season ended at the hands of Monash University Storm. The Lightning needed a win to qualify for the postseason, but fell four goals short to finish in sixth place. City West will play Boroondara Genesis in the first semi-final at the State Netball and Hockey Centre on Wednesday. Liam Twomey
With just one win separating first through to fifth on the Football Federation of Victoria’s state league 1 north-west ladder, the championship race is wide open heading into the second half of the season. Right in the thick of it is Altona East, one of the league’s form sides. Prior to the Queen’s Birthday break, the Phoenix collected seven points from three games, including a vital 3-1 win over fellow title contender the Fawkner Blues. Altona East coach Terry Antoniadis is rapt with the way his side attacked the first half of the season. “It’s a nice position to be in,” he said. “I’d say we’re in the mix. This time last year, we were well and truly out of it. You could argue that the bye really came at the wrong time for us. We were building some good momentum.” The hot streak propelled Altona East into fifth spot on the table after 10 rounds with a 4-4-2 record. Altona will have the chance to break free of the top-end congestion in coming weeks with crunch games against second-placed Preston Lions and Western Suburbs (11th). “We see every week as an opportunity to pick up points,” Antoniadis said. “We don’t fear anybody, but we also know that if we are not on we can lose to anybody. The competition is that even. “We see it as a good opportunity to distance ourselves but also to maintain pressure on the sides that are above us.” After coming off a tough 2013 season in which it finished seventh, Altona has turned itself into one of the hardest teams in the division to score against. The Phoenix has conceded 12 goals for the season, the least of any state league 1 side. “We defend as a unit so all 11 players have a responsibility defensively,” Antoniadis said. “People are working hard when we don’t have the ball to make sure we’re very difficult to play against. “That was the message from the first day of preseason. “For us to stay in games and to have the opportunity to compete we have to be organised and we have to work hard.” Liam Twomey
MOTOR Hot hatch packs real punch By David Bonnici Hyundai already has a decent sports coupe´ heritage with cars such as the Tiburon and Veloster, so it was only a matter of time before it entered the sports hatch market. It’s done so with style with the i30 SR, a suped-up version of the popular hatch. While its coupe´ cousin’s aesthetics took a while to grow on the casual observer, the i30SR has instant appeal, going with subtle exterior features including 17-inch alloy wheels, Xenon headlights, blackened front grille and a rear diffuser, which looks good but does compromise rear vision a little. The push-button start suits this car, with everything instantly coming to life and imploring you to drive. The engine noise is barely noticeable at idle but has a nice throaty pitch when you get the revs up. The six-speed manual version is fun to drive, but you need to concentrate a little to get off to a flying start. Get it right and you’re rewarded with chirping front tyres and rocket-like acceleration in first gear and a smile-inducing boost in second. It can hit 100km/h in just 7.7 seconds, so you want to be careful that you don’t let it get away from you if you want to stay under the speed limit. The 2.0-litre GDI engine – bigger than anything placed under the hood of an i30 before – doesn’t mind high revs, and with the radio on, you hardly notice it doing more than 3500rpm without looking at the rev counter. The trip computer between the main gauges shows which gear you should be shifting into, but it prompts you before the rev counter even

hits 2000rpm. If you’re going to drive that frugally you might as well get the standard i30 in automatic. Even with my rusty manual driving I managed pretty good fuel economy. The power is harnessed by the bespoke sports tune suspension developed for Australian conditions and provides a firm but comfortable

ride. It feels good on bitumen, like it’s stuck to the road, but it was a little hair-raising on gravel. It also has “flex steer” with comfort, normal and sports steering settings, ranging from light steering for city driving to harder and more responsive, which is great for winding roads.
The Hyundai i30 SR isn’t quite in the league of the Golf GTi or Subaru WRX. But it doesn’t pretend to be. Its sub-$30,000 price tag puts it in Nissan Pulsar SSS and Holden Cruze SRI-V territory, where it certainly holds its own. www.hyundai.com.au/vehicles/i30sr
