By Goya Dmytryshchak The building housing Williamstown’s Titanic Theatre Restaurant is for sale, but the restaurant will continue to operate until at least 2018. The restaurant’s lease expires in that year, with a further option available until 2021. David Varney, who runs the restaurant, says it will continue to run even if the building’s ownership changes. “I’m here for another six years at least, so there’ll be no disaster with regard to this I can assure you,” he said. “We’re stronger and better and harder-working than we’ve ever been. “I have a lease, so if someone wishes to buy the building they take me with them. “I’m going to have a few phone calls now that people are saying the building is up for sale and that’s the end of the Titanic. “I’ve got a massive commitment here for at least the next three years, plus the opportunity to go further than that. “We’re under pressure from what’s happened around us with the destruction of the wool stores … I’ve had to work harder at letting people know we’re still sailing. We’ll continue to do what we do so well for a further period of three years plus possibly another three on top of that.” Property owner Andrew Singer

established the theme restaurant at 1 Nelson Place, 25 years ago. In 2009, Mr Singer told Star Weekly that residential rezoning of the adjoining Port Phillip Woollen Mill site could sink his business. The Titanic occupies a corner of the mill site, which covers two large blocks. Construction is under way on the mill site for the $350 million Waterline Place development, comprising up to 850 dwellings and with a height of up to 10 storeys. The development is scheduled to be completed by 2018, the same time the Titanic’s lease expires. Weda Partners director Peter Weda is seeking expressions of interest for the freehold to the 460-square-metre property occupied by the Titanic. “We’re trying to get feedback from the investor, the developer-type communities, to say here is this property that’s the last remaining in that Port Phillip Woollen Mill site,” he said. “What are you prepared to pay? We’ve had massive amounts of inquiry.” Save Williamstown spokesman Godfrey Moase said tourists were attracted to the suburb because of its unique architecture and heritage. “It would be an avoidable crime if we lost another old Williamstown pub,” he said. “And given that that is on the corner it cannot safely be residential – that is the closest point to the [Mobil] major hazard facility.”

Pet shop under scrutiny after complaints Highpoint shopping centre has called in the RSPCA and Maribyrnong council to investigate Top Pets pet store following widespread criticism over in-store conditions and alleged links to puppy factories. An online Change.org petition, started last week, has attracted almost 3500 signatures calling on Highpoint to cancel the store’s lease. The petition criticises the practices of leaving “distressed” animals in glass boxes overnight and the store failing to disclose

under what conditions and where its kittens and puppies are bred. Some shoppers have vowed to boycott the centre as long as the store operates. Highpoint director Ben Gill said the shopping centre had an obligation to honour leases with tenants if they were operating within the conditions of their lease and existing laws. “Highpoint has previously engaged with RSPCA and local council to visit the Top Pets store and review its compliance with animal

welfare regulations. We have requested that the RSPCA and local council visit the Top Pets store again this week,” he said. Council director Adrian Havryluk said two council officers inspected Top Pets last Monday but failed to find any breaches of the code of practice for the running of pet shops. “All animals were found to be housed appropriately and in a clean condition. The conditions were also found to be compliant at the time of the previous visit from council officers in April.”

Indebted RSL on way up Williamstown RSL plans to redevelop its corner building into a five-storey apartment block with retail on the ground floor to deal with its multimillion-dollar debt. RSL state president David McLachlan said the sub-branch had been given the option to redevelop with an RSL included, amalgamate or close. He said the Victorian branch did not want to see the sub-branch close. “We never want to see any sub-branch close,” Mr McLachlan said. “But in the event that something has to happen there, we’ll look after the staff and the members if they decide to redevelop on that site, and we would be keen to have that happen as quickly as possible.” The sub-branch, which is about 95 years old, has more than 1000 members and directly and indirectly employs about 35 people. Mr McLachlan said the site, on the corner of Ferguson Street and Melbourne Road, was ideal for multi-level redevelopment. “It’s taken us a couple of years to get [the club] back on to an even keel to be able to trade, but at the same time it’s got unsustainable debt now as a consequence of that and no matter how long they traded you would have to have a significant turnaround to be able to pay the debt back. “It’s in the millions.” The Way Out West Roots Music Club (WOW), which started 14 years ago and is housed in the RSL, is looking for another venue in Williamstown from next year. WOW president and Williamstown RSL life member Rob Rowe said the current RSL executive and staff had worked tirelessly for the past 18 months to put the RSL club in a much better financial position. “From my understanding … it’s just going to be virtually a pokies venue. We won’t be able to have kids in there; it won’t be big enough,” he said. “I was pretty devastated because I’m from three generations that have volunteered or worked at that RSL.” Williamstown RSL declined to comment.

Mr Havryluk said the council had no policy regarding where pet shops buy their animals, as there were no government restrictions dictating where pet shops could or could not source pets. Oscar’s Law founder and spokeswoman Debra Tranter said her organisation received complaints about Top Pets at least once a week. Top Pets did not return Star Weekly’s calls for comment.

Bowl of hope for soup van A Footscray soup van has been thrown a lifeline in its bid to keep serving more than 50,000 meals for people in need each year. The St Vincent de Paul Society Footscray soup van, now operating out of inadequate premises, faced imminent closure unless it was able to secure new premises for preparing up to 250 meals a day. Under a proposal to be formalised at last night’s Maribyrnong council meeting, St Vincent de Paul Society sought access to the Raleigh Road Activity Centre kitchen in Maribyrnong to help prepare soup and sandwiches for distribution to homeless and vulnerable people. Under the two-year trial partnership, St Vincent de Paul Society would pay for gas and power use in exchange for access to the kitchen area as well as space for fridges and a freezer and storage for tinned food, blankets and jumpers. Soup van operations manager Danusia Kaska’s partnership proposal noted that the van visited homes, boarding houses and caravan parks as well as providing an 8pm daily street stop at Whitten Oval in Footscray so that those sleeping rough have a central point at which to receive a meal. “There is some degree of urgency in our request,” she said. “We have been recently removed from the kitchen at Our Lady’s parish, Maidstone, due to renovation and a change of use of the facility.” A council report backing the partnership noted the Footscray soup van had been running since 1989, serving more than 50,000 meals a year to people experiencing homelessness, disadvantage and isolation in Footscray, Maidstone and Yarraville. The soup van runs every night of the year. Benjamin Millar

Criminals ramp up asylum fears By Benjamin Millar Hundreds of convicted criminals are being held alongside vulnerable asylum seekers in Australian detention centres, including the Maribyrnong Immigration Detention Centre (MIDC). Figures released last week to a Senate inquiry revealed that on April 30 there were 448 people in immigration detention centres who had been convicted of criminal offences. Four had been convicted of homicide or related offences, 70 of sexual assault and 165 of assault or other violent offences.

Star Weekly reported in April that violent criminals had been terrorising asylum seekers at MIDC, forcing them into hiding inside the centre. Footscray police have been called to assaults and other incidents at the centre as gangs of criminals awaiting deportation have set upon and threatened to kill asylum seekers. Advocates are calling for asylum seekers to be separated from gangs of “501s” – detainees being deported under Section 501 of the Migration Act for failing a “character test” after being sentenced to 12 or more months imprisonment.

The advocates fear that new powers being sought by the government to manage these “high-risk detainees”, allowing security guards to cause grievous bodily harm if they “reasonably believe” it is necessary to protect life or prevent injury, are a recipe for disaster. Kon Karapanagiotidis, chief executive of Footscray’s Asylum Seeker Resource Centre, said the government had failed to put adequate systems in place to send people back to their home countries if they didn’t meet the character test. “As a result, detention centres are being filled to the point of overcrowding with disgruntled

former prisoners, which puts asylum seekers in a very difficult situation,” he said. “The government should deal with the real problems in its detention centres – asylum seekers forced to live in crowded conditions alongside convicted criminals with little information or certainty about their future – rather than giving guards the green light to manage the situation through violence and fear.” The Australian Border Force (ABF) said in a statement that detention service providers took the safety and security of those in immigration detention seriously.

Hole lot of history Three years after Victoria’s oldest-known military bunker was unearthed at Williamstown Cricket Ground, it remains a fenced-off “hole in the ground” with no work done to turn it into a tourist attraction. The 1860s bluestone bunker and tunnel, which dates from the Crimean War, was discovered when a tank was being installed as part of the cricket club’s $8 million expansion. Three more underground chambers were later found beneath the floor of the pavilion. Three years ago, the council, Heritage Victoria (HV) and a historical interpretation consultant examined options for preserving and restoring the bunker. HV believes the bunker probably lay exposed until the 1920s, before it was backfilled during construction of the grandstand in 1930. Brian Haynes, of the Williamstown Historical Society, said nothing had been done

to restore the bunker despite its potential to become a tourist attraction for Hobsons Bay. “They are the earliest remaining fortifications in Melbourne,” he said. “I’d like to see signage explaining what was there, the underground magazine and the actual fortification.” Hobsons Bay councillor Angela Altair, at last week’s council meeting, questioned whether council could find money to restore the bunker. Hobsons Bay infrastructure and city services director Sherry Clarke said there was a three-part plan to erect explanatory signs, explore the heritage merit of the site and report the likely cost back to the council. Heritage Victoria spokeswoman Pauline Hitchins said as the bunker was not included on the Victorian Heritage Register it would not be eligible for current grant programs. Goya Dmytryshchak

Police dragnet fills quickly A joint operation between police and sheriff officers in Altona Meadows netted $385,000 in unpaid fines in one day. Forty members of the Hobsons Bay highway patrol and Sheriff’s Office began setting up on the corner of Hall Avenue and Merton Street about 9am last Thursday, waving cars into the Laverton Football Club carpark. The officers were using an automatic number plate recognition (ANPR) camera, and scanning the number plates of almost every passing car to check for disqualified or unlicensed drivers, unregistered or stolen vehicles, and vehicles with outstanding warrants attached. Sergeant Aaron Prentice-Evans, who was co-ordinating Operation Wyatt, said an ANPR camera was placed in Merton Street and flagged vehicles were being called through. “We’re trying to get the drivers who are over-represented in road trauma, like your disqualifieds, your unlicensed, your alcohol-interlocks, unregistered motor vehicles, suspended drivers,” he said. “We’re trialling a number of different locations. “They’ve got different classifications of warrants, but they’ll either have people paying on the spot or they’ll be clamping vehicles today, or issuing people with notices, which means that they’ve got a specified time to pay the outstanding fines or they’ll have their vehicles clamped.” It was the first time the Merton Street location had been trialled.

Sheriff of Victoria Brendan Facey said that by day’s end, officers had detected 50 people with 1235 warrants. “Forty-four people owing a combined total of $38,279 over 102 warrants resolved their matters in full on the day,” he said. “Eighteen drivers had their vehicles clamped during the operation, which accounted for 343 warrants valued at more than $98,071.”

The previous day, a booze bus operation was held from about 3pm on Millers Road, Altona North. Senior Sergeant Damien Madden said this was to demonstrate that a booze bus could be anywhere, any time. “We tested all day and had one driver test positive for drugs,” he said. “With regard to drug driving, all highway patrol officers have now been trained and authorised to conduct these tests. This is as a result of extra funding being allocated by the government last year. Police detected two disqualified drivers, three suspended drivers, five unlicensed drivers, 11 unregistered vehicles, two drivers using a mobile phone, two drivers who failed to stop at a red light, two learner drivers failing to have an experienced driver with them and a P-plater failing to display plates. Two people were caught driving unsafe vehicles, and eight defect notices were issued.

Blitz to curb road deaths Footscray police will soon be cracking down on pedestrians and cyclists in a bid to cut the number of injuries and deaths occurring on the roads. From the start of August, uniform and plainclothes operations will target hotspots from Yarraville to Maribyrnong in an effort to change behaviour and get the road safety message through. Acting Senior Sergeant Rebecca Marshall (pictured) said pedestrians and cyclists were over-represented in local road accidents resulting in death or injury. “They account for more than 40 per cent of our injuries, which is really high,” she said. “Five of our last nine fatalities have been pedestrians and bike riders.” Acting Senior Sergeant Marshall said Melbourne’s inner-west had high traffic

volumes and a lot of people also rode bikes and walked to work. The first stage of the blitz will be highly visible, involving police in uniforms handing out road safety brochures in various languages. “When we start out, we’re going to be warning people, but the next stage will be having police in plain clothes and giving out tickets,” Acting Senior Sergeant Marshall said. “It’s about education, getting people paying attention or off their phones.” The three-month operation will be rolled out across the Victoria University education precincts, around Highpoint in Maribyrnong, throughout the Footscray CBD and around busy cycling routes in Footscray and Yarraville.

Fire at CSR plant

More than 20 firefighters battled for 30 minutes to bring a fire at Yarraville’s CSR plant under control on Friday night. Firefighters were called to the Whitehall Street building at 11.35pm after a blaze broke out in the fourth level of the old dryer building at the CSR plant. The five-storey building is under refurbishment and the cause of the fire is thought to be from oxy-acetylene equipment.

Council calls for equality

The SaiGon Welcome Arch planned for Footscray. (Supplied)

Welcome arch’s march By Benjamin Millar A 20-year journey to build Footscray’s SaiGon Welcome Arch is nearing an end with the archway’s final design completed. A pair of giant cranes at the southern end of Leeds Street will welcome visitors to Footscray’s Little Saigon, with details of the $980,000 project finalised in a report to last night’s council meeting. The state government is providing $420,000 towards construction, Maribyrnong council will spend $360,000 and the remaining $200,000 has been raised by the Vietnamese-

Australian community. The archway will be built as part of the $12.5 million Little Saigon precinct redevelopment that will include a new building with ground-floor retail and multi-level parking, a pocket park, street trees and a Byron Street upgrade. The design was developed by members of the Footscray Asian Business Association, Vietnamese Community Australia Victorian Chapter, Footscray Traders Association and Footscray Community Arts Centre. The design and archway name attracted overwhelming public support during consultations in May and June.

NEW TO

The proposed SaiGon Welcome Arch name, celebrating the contribution the Vietnamese community has made in Footscray, was supported by 121 of 126 respondents. Of 75 public submissions on the design, 74 were positive. “Whilst the feedback received was overwhelmingly positive, minor revisions have been made to the concept design in response to the feedback,” the council report stated. The final steps will include collation of stories and images for engraving on the arch and a tendering process for construction, which is due to begin late this year.

Maribyrnong council is throwing its support behind the growing campaign for marriage equality. Councillor Sarah Carter moved a motion at the last council meeting calling on the council to support marriage equality. The council will write to all federal members of Parliament and the Commonwealth Human Rights and Equal Opportunity Commissioner advising them of the council’s decision. Cr Carter said the vast majority of Australians support same-sex marriage. “It’s just time. It’s common sense and it’s logical and it’s also about equality, the community does not want to tolerate discrimination.” Cr Carter said the stance may attract criticism for being outside local government business but she believes the overwhelming community demand for change needs to be supported. “We want to send a clear message that we are expecting leadership on this. “I have a sister who is gay … I can’t fathom a world in which she can’t marry a woman she loves.” Cr Carter said the groundswell of support would eventually be too much for political leaders to ignore. “I have absolutely no doubt it will happen, it’s just a matter of when.” Cr Catherine Cumming said she supported the proposal and believed the council had a responsibility to reflect the community’s view on the matter.

On a mission to coexist By Goya Dmytryshchak An Altona North Muslim man has been appointed to lead a state government advisory group to tackle economic and social factors that could lead to violent extremism. Oussama Abou-Zeid, 20, will co-chair the Social Cohesion and Community Resilience Advisory Group, which also includes government ministers and representatives of the Jewish, Christian and Zoroastrian faiths. Mr Abou-Zeid, a former Victorian youth governor and Hobsons Bay young citizen of the year, said one of his aims was to empower and educate youth. He said it was beyond his comprehension why anyone would go overseas to join groups such as ISIS. “It kills me inside knowing that I can’t do anything about people who have gone there – pardon my French, they’re just plain stupid, people who go overseas to fight. “It infuriates me because they’ve killed more Muslims than any other race or religion, which doesn’t make sense because they’re considered the new Islamic caliphate, where they’re persecuting Muslims on a daily basis. “It’s a joke. It’s gone beyond a joke. “A lot of people who are going overseas are reverts, so these are people who have chosen Islam as their religion, but they get brainwashed. You couldn’t get any further away from Islam.” Mr Abou-Zeid said education and dialogue between different community groups were the keys. “Our parents came to Australia fleeing persecution, fleeing war for a better life, and we must take full advantage of this opportunity to be brought up in such a beautiful country as Australia,” he said. “We should be bringing in these boys, we should be teaching them, educating them, we

should be allowing them to be involved in our everyday activities.” Deputy Premier James Merlino will chair the group, which will advise the recently established ministerial taskforce on current issues and potential risks. The group includes state ministers for multicultural and youth

affairs, education and police, and it will hold a series of meetings through the rest of the year. Multicultural Affairs Minister Robin Scott said Victoria was faced with complex issues and it was essential that the community play a leading role in developing government policy.

Roosters OK, if they’re quiet There’s nothing to crow about for roosters in Hobsons Bay. Cocks will be banned under a proposed shake-up of local laws. But Hobsons Bay corporate services director David Anderson said rooster owners should not panic. “I think, in fairness to roosters and their owners, we would not be too rigorous in seeking the death penalty,” Mr Anderson said. Owners can apply for a permit provided they can show that their feathered friends will not be nuisances. Last year, the council received 18 complaints related to crowing cocks. They were dealt with under regulations dealing with noise complaints. But mayor Colleen Gates said there was a lot more to the local laws than how to get a rooster permit. “I encourage anyone interested to have a look and provide us with your feedback,” she said. The new and amended local laws are out for public consultation until August 20. They can be viewed on the council’s website or in hard copy at Altona’s civic centre and libraries. Anyone wanting to discuss the local law changes can phone governance and local laws manager Diane Eyckens on 9932 1000. Goya Dmytryshchak

Search on as chief leaves top job By Ben Cameron Brimbank council chief executive Bill Jaboor will leave the top job in October. Mr Jaboor announced his retirement after 46 years in the local government sector last Wednesday, saying the time was right to step down. Mr Jaboor was chief executive of Hobsons Bay City Council from 2004-2012. Brimbank Council hopes to have a new CEO in place by the time he leaves. “After a 46-year career in local government, I have decided it’s time for my life to take a

different direction,” he said. “When I was appointed in [November] 2012, I had originally planned to stay long enough to assist the new council and the organisation with the transition back to elected representatives. “Since the proposed March 2015 election was delayed, I have been considering the timing and, with several key projects well under way, I feel that now is the best time to make my move.” Mr Jaboor said the timing would mean his replacement would have time to settle into the role and the organisation. “Throughout my career, I have really enjoyed

working in local government and, in particular, my time at Brimbank has been exciting and given me the opportunity of working with a team of very talented people,” he said. “Despite its many challenges, it’s very rewarding. “Every time you open a new community facility, provide a new service, complete a park upgrade or even add new meals to the Meals on Wheels service, you know in some way you are improving the quality of life of your residents. “To finish my career in Brimbank, with its diversity, sense of community and changing landscape, well, it just doesn’t get much better than that,” Mr Jaboor said.

Chairman of administrators John Watson said that he had regretfully accepted Mr Jaboor’s resignation but understood his decision. Mr Watson said he was confident a suitable replacement would be found. “The organisation is stable and very well placed; we are implementing long-term strategies to guide future investment into the provision of community and sporting facilities; the upgrade of councils parks and open spaces is progressing, and we have a prudent long-term financial strategy,” Mr Watson said. “Brimbank has a very exciting future, … I am sure we will be able to attract a suitable candidate.”

Hard edge of the west A new crime-fighting force has been unveiled in Melbourne’s western suburbs. Delta Force: Hardkill, a dark comedy following the misadventures of two mismatched, delusional private investigators, made its screen debut last week on community television Channel 31. The six-part series, based on a concept by Sunshine local Eli Abidin, was developed in the past 18 months by Albion’s Neil Harvester and Robert Suavez, Deer Park’s John Flores and West Footscray’s Jimmy Exclaimer. Suavez and Exclaimer star as the two hardboiled protagonists while Harvester plays a variety of different characters, mainly villains. Harvester said their independent production company Same Yellow Productions had been filming in and around locations that would be familiar to people living in the west. “For Delta Force headquarters, we have

used the State Trustees building in Footscray,” Harvester said. “We also had a whole bunch of different places around Sunshine and St Albans.” The zero-budget project was initially due to be web-based and shot on hand-held cameras. “After we shot the pilot this way, we attended a ‘make TV’ seminar hosted by C31 at RMIT and handed it in for their perusal,” Harvester said. “They were happy with the concept and gave us the green light for broadcast, asking us to reshoot it using better equipment.” The team is happy with the outcome of the first six episodes and is toying around with ideas for where to take the concept next. “We are still tossing up whether to turn it into something film feature length.” Delta Force: Hardkill will be released on DVD after its Chanel 31 season.

Safety drives new police crew By Charlene Macaulay

Connecting through art

Highway patrol crews from Footscray and Williamstown police stations will move to Tarneit this week in a combined effort to drive down road trauma across the west. From this Sunday, the Wyndham, Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong highway patrol squads will operate out of the Wyndham North police station in Tarneit. The new unit, to be called the Westgate highway patrol, will have 28 police officers – 11 from Wyndham, eight each from Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong, and one tactical intelligence operative – as well as eight police cars and two off-road motorcycles. The Wyndham highway patrol is already based at the Tarneit station. Westgate road policing adviser Damien Madden said the merger meant the Westgate highway patrol would be able to focus on road trauma and problem areas en masse. Senior Sergeant Madden said the new unit would include a crew to focus on recidivist offenders, including hoon drivers and drink drivers. The merger also meant the region would have a supervisor on duty for every shift, which is currently not the case for the three areas. “It’s going to be a great leap forward in how we do things,” he said. “We know that distracted, or rear-end collisions, are a problem for road trauma due to congested roads and people getting frustrated and jumping in and out of lanes. “Wyndham is our growth area and accounts for a larger percentage of the road trauma than Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong.” Senior Sergeant Madden stressed that highway patrol officers would still be able to effectively cover the Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay areas in a timely manner, with units deployed regularly across all three areas.

VICTORIAN DOG RESCUE

BUDDY PERKINS

Our Goal Is To No Longer Be Needed Victorian Dog Rescue & Resource Group Inc (VicDRG) has been proactive in animal welfare since 2006. We are a not for profit organisation and registered charity whose goal is to stop the killing in pounds and shelters, by helping our companion animals in need, and promoting responsible pet ownership. Every effort is made to retrain dogs and cats that have been unfortunate enough to have a neglected background. We will keep a dog or cat in our care for as long as it takes. If we do not have a suitable foster carer we will hold them at commercial kennels until one is found.

Prolific Footscray artist Baby Guerrilla explores notions of social connection in her latest giant paste-up for Victoria University. VU commissioned the renowned street artist to add another giant mural to its Footscray Park Campus, joining last year’s portrayal of an African woman soaring six storeys high on the engineering building facing Ballarat Road. Unveiled in the building P courtyard on Monday, Connections is a 15-metre-high work depicting an African woman and a young boy, defying gravity while holding hands. Baby Guerrilla said her latest paste-up is designed to recognise the inter connectedness of all humanity. “It shows we all are linked, and have the power to lift each other up and change the world for the better, no matter who we are or what we do,” she said. “It is also designed to celebrate and acknowledge the contribution of immigrants to our vibrant and diverse community here in Footscray and Australia.” Both works form part of Victoria University and Maribyrnong council’s 10-year Footscray University Town project to strengthen support for art, education, sport and innovation.

Fee break for Nelson diners

MICHEL LE TELLIER

Artist amped by success By Benjamin Millar West Footscray artist Michel Le Tellier has been causing a splash with his one-of-a-kind surfboard artworks. Le Tellier is merging his love of surfing and art in upcoming exhibition Sailmaker at Post Industrial Design. The young artist handcrafts his surfboards, which he then uses as a blank canvas for his art. A keen surfer himself, the 18-year-old decided at 15 exactly what he wanted to do with his life.

He spent a year working to save up enough money to travel to Queensland to complete a surfboard-shaping course with acclaimed board-shaper Richard Harvey, who has been shaping surfboards since 1967. “When you are out on the water it’s just you and the board that exist in that moment. The board becomes an extension of the surfer,” le Tellier said. “I want my board art to allow surfers to connect more with the craft they are riding and enhance the surfing experience.” After shaping each new board, le Tellier

painstakingly hand paints each with his own unique designs. Post Industrial Design owner Mary Long said Le Tellier’s surfboard artworks had stopped her in her tracks. “To see someone, who found their passion at 15 and has methodically worked towards it, is pure inspiration,” she said. “At 18, he is very much at the start of his career.” Sailmaker opens on Sunday, August 2, 6-8pm. It runs until August 15 at Post Industrial Design, 638 Barkly Street, West Footscray.

Hobsons Bay council last week voted to trial free parking on part of Williamstown’s main dining strip for four days a week. From August 1 to November 1, parking will be free in Nelson Place, between Pasco and Thompson streets and also in Syme Street, from Mondays to Thursdays. On other days, the parking metre fee is $3 an hour, while parking is free of charge for residents with permits. Cr Angela Altair had originally proposed a Monday to Friday free parking trial for the entire length of Nelson Place for three months. Hobsons Bay strategic development director Natalie Walker estimated the loss of parking-metre revenue, if the trial was Monday to Friday, would be $130,000 to $180,000, not including revenue from fines. Councillor Paul Morgan called for a more limited trial than originally proposed by Cr Altair. For the trial to proceed, five or more traders will be required to agree to provide confidential financial data to council officers for comparative purposes. Cr Altair said the free-parking trial was aimed at helping struggling traders who had suggested – in a budget submission made last year – a winter freeze on paid parking. Goya Dmytryshchak

Some doctors in the western suburbs were verbally blasted yesterday by Mr Ralph Willis, MHR. “Some doctors are using the introduction of Medibank to shamelessly exploit pensioners,” said Mr Willis, who is federal member for Gellibrand, a western suburbs electorate. He said he had been told that pensioner patients of some doctors were now being asked to pay cash before being treated.

About 30 laboratory staff at four oil company plants in the west are at the centre of Victoria’s current petrol crisis. Early last week they introduced a ban on the quality testing of petroleum products, which include motor spirit, diesel oil, aviation gasoline, jet fuel and fuel oil.

Voters will be subjected to an election fraud at the Williamstown council elections on 3 August, the three Centre Ward councillors said last week. Councillors Don Joiner, Hans Paas and Charles Bates have questioned the sincerity of their ALP opponents, who have swapped from the North to Centre Wards. Cr Bates said it was part of the ALP’s “sham campaign” and an insult to the intelligence of the Williamstown voters

A Laverton North family of eight is outraged at the state government’s plan to build a 600-bed private prison virtually on its doorstep – at Truganina on the Laverton North industrial estate. Ms Bernadette Aquilina, 18, said she feared family members would be ready-made hostages for escapees from the prison, which will include criminals with psycho-social disorders.

FOOD REVIEW MARIBYRNONG.STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir discovers a new genre of fusion food at Footscray Consider The Sauce’s gaze was largely elsewhere as Littlefoot was coming on stream, so it came as a great surprise for a happy bunch of CTS regulars who came upon it coming back from Indo-Chinese just up the road. We popped in for postprandial drinks and dessert, one of which – a foundation menu listing – was so brilliant we vowed to return to take the whole menu for a spin. Several weeks later, the same crew of six, plus two, fronted for mid-week eats on a chillingly cold evening. The round front table was ours and proves precisely right for eight of us. I thought we’d try everything on offer, food-wise, but our collective eyes fix on specific menu items at the expense of others. It’s all good – pork rind chips ($3.50), fried chicken spare ribs ($10) with crunchy crumbs and wasabi mayo … both terrific, the crumb coating really is crunchy but also grease-free. The ribs are suitably meaty and flavoursome and the wasabi mayo is a true delight. The chips with beer cheese ($12.50) are fine but it seems I’m the only one unwowed by the beer cheese dip – I don’t find it to be a bad taste, it simply doesn’t turn me on. Several serves of both versions of banh ‘mini’ ($5.50) – teriyaki tofu and barbecue braised beef – are ordered. They’re as fresh and tasty as can be. One devil’s advocate points out that they are smaller and more expensive than the regular banh mi just a block away, to which my immediate thought is: “Meh … this is a bar.” Slow-cooked kangaroo on Ethiopian bean

LITTLEFOOT Address: 223 Barkly Street, Footscray Phone: 9396 1282 ful, topped with hemp seed dukkah ($18), is another outright winner and good value for money given the generous size of the portions. The bean mix is a cool blend that reminds me of chilli con carne. That’s fine by me – Littlefoot’s aim is to embrace and celebrate the surrounding food cultures, not replicate them. Rolls of injera and excellent greenery complete a fine dish. I suspect when it comes to mains at Littlefoot, this roo dish is it – there is only one item that costs more, the $25 tasting board. We are presented with an on-the-house duck pizza. By this time we’re all getting fullish, so a slice each is just right. It’s good, the meaty duck complemented by nice crunchy things. Dessert time! Once more, we enjoy the injera and hazelnut chocolate pinwheels with creamy coconut dipping sauce ($9.50). What a superb and utterly delicious piece of imagination is this, perfectly encapsulating the Littlefoot food philosophy. The sourness of the injera does a sexy tango with the sweetness of the hazelnut/chocolate, all lubricated by coconut sauce. Totally yum.

t’s in the name and it’s on the shelf . . . Cheaper Buy Miles is a discount store like no other. It sells groceries, household goods, crockery and kitchenware, clothing and manchester, jewellery and the occasional piece of furniture or outdoor item at amazingly low prices. You name it and Cheaper Buy Miles probably stocks it. Products include some close to or past their best-before dates, discontinued stock and items which have changed their packaging. Items are up to 90 per cent cheaper than at regular supermarkets. Demand for Cheaper Buy Miles products is so high the store had to shift to a bigger warehouse in 2009 to cater for customers’ needs and is looking to relocate to a bigger premises again in the near future. Most of the store’s friendly and knowledgeable staff have been with the business since it opened 18 years ago and they are keen to provide customers with the best of service. “Regular customers have come to rely on us for their weekly shopping,” owner Grant Miles says. “Customers always say, ‘I don’t know how I’d survive without Cheaper Buy Miles. It’s a very satisfying part of the job and I’m really proud of the part we play in feeding locals.” Grant, who has a background in the grocery industry, said supermarkets were unnecessarily dumping quality groceries so he decided to take action. “I wanted to offer suppliers and manufacturers an opportunity to sell products and save on waste and to help the community by providing low-cost groceries to the most needy,” he says.

Cheaper Buy Miles continues to give back to the community by supporting local organisations and events in Footscray.

Work together, new MP urges R

achel Carling-Jenkins is the first female parliamentarian in the history of the Democratic Labour Party, and the 55th MP of the party. Having worked in the welfare sector since the age of 17, Dr Carling-Jenkins has a PhD in social sciences and has presented her work at numerous international conferences. In 2014, her first book was published and she continues to serve the community. “It’s human dignity and the common good that I will pursue here in Parliament, where I will tell the stories of the people I represent – people I will fight for and people I care about,” Dr Carling-Jenkins says. During her first six months in Parliament, Dr Carling-Jenkins has advocated for emergency accommodation and services in the Wyndham area to help homeless people and prevent people becoming homeless. She has also called for greater government support for those in the workforce with disabilities and, on a different tack, has advocated for a new police station at Point Cook and redevelopment of Werribee Football Club’s Avalon Airport Oval. Dr Carling-Jenkins has successfully sought government funding to build a community service centre at Essendon to provide pregnancy and family-support services. “Many families are burdened by the financial, social and emotional issues that come from problem gambling. This has invaded our regions and suburbs with expansion of poker machines into clubs and pubs where responsible limits, proven to deter problem gambling, have not been

adopted or enforced. This is another issue I will work on.” By putting her community first, Dr Carling-Jenkins aims to ensure everyone achieves optimal health and wellbeing. “In Parliament, I will be a voice for human dignity and the common good as I aspire to bring the value of human life to the forefront of our minds.” She believes thriving communities are built on strong relationships. “A society is only as strong as its relationships. While there are many different opinions and ideas in politics, the focus must always be on working together, not against each other, to make Victoria a better place.” Dr Rachel Carling-Jenkins, Suite 3, 1-13 Watton Street, Werribee.

Dr. Rachel Carling-Jenkins M.P. State Member of Parliament for Western Metropolitan Region

“It is an honour to represent the people of Western Metropolitan Region as your newest member of parliament. I hope that together we can build a community that respects the dignity of every person and work to achieve what is good for us all. I have already started addressing a number of local issues, including homelessness, public safety and health services. During my time in parliament, I intend to bring something better to the families, workers and communities of Melbourne’s west.”

EAT YOUR VEGIE WEDGIES

JOE PIGNATARO

For me, winter is synonymous with wedges – of the potato variety. They’re a great go-to, warm-up food because they’re quick to prepare, they’re healthy and kids can’t get enough of them.

HUNGRY FOR SPORT PRODUCER AT SEN

Recipes such as Jamie Oliver’s smoky mixed potato wedges will give any oven chip a run for its money. Just wash two large sweet potatoes and two medium potatoes (keep the skin on), slice them lengthwise into four pieces, then across – so you end up with eight pieces. Pop them in a bowl, then add a teaspoon of sweet smoked paprika and a pinch each of sea salt and pepper. Drizzle over two tablespoons of olive oil then mix everything together to coat.

FB: How would you rate your cooking skills? JP: Competent. FB: What is your signature dish? JP: Pumpkin ravioli with a burnt butter sauce and sage. FB: If you could only have one more meal, what would it be? JP: Pizza. And a large one at that!

Spread out over a single layer on two large trays and bake at 200 degrees Celsius for 35 to 40 minutes, or until golden and cooked through.

FB: What is your favourite food TV show and who is your favourite TV food person? JP: Love My Kitchen Rules, especially the episodes when the guests are sitting there for hours on end! Favourite TV food person is Giada De Laurentiis … simply because of the way she says ‘eerbs’ instead of ‘herbs’.

Thanks so much for your feedback on food phobias. I both laughed and sympathised when Food Bytes reader Poormina emailed me about her dislike of watermelons: “Once I ate a watermelon when I was a child, and vomited. From then on, I never ate watermelons. If I try it, I feel like vomiting. My husband used to comment ‘whichever is healthy, you don’t like.’ I know that. But what to do?”

FB: What is your favourite food? JP: Pizza, by the length of the Flemington straight. Schnitzel way back at the turn would be the closest thing to it. FB: What is your favourite drink? JP: Water when I’m at home. Out – lemon, lime and bitters. FB: Which five people would you most like to invite to dinner? JP: Emma Watson, Rachel McAdams, David ‘Bumble’ Lloyd, Daniel Harford and Jason Richardson. FB: Do you have a kitchen tip for us? JP: Let mum do as much as possible. Mums know best.

Right across the road from Seabrook Primary School, this neat-as-a-pin property has everything buffed to a turn and ready to lay out the welcome mat to new owners. Three bedrooms (each with wardrobes) share a sleek, tiled bathroom with a toilet, and there’s a separate toilet next door – essential for bigger households. The living room and study (both next to the kitchen) are beautified with polished floorboards, while the kitchen is all glossy, with a stack of storage and stainless-steel appliances, including a dishwasher. As neat as the front, the backyard has a huge, covered pergola housing a spa and storage cupboards. The good-sized lawn is rimmed with landscaped gardens, and there are a garage and carport. On about 530 square metres, the house is close to wetlands, parks and freeway access.

Sophisticated and glam, this is a fine circa 2012 example of architect turned furniture designer Rosanna Ceravolo’s skills on a small footprint – with enough drama to satisfy design buffs and enough luxury to pamper perfectionists. Entry is under a long carport (secure) where exterior timber cladding is on display, then, immediately to the right, is a chic bathroom and the first bedroom with floorboards and customised wardrobe. The ultra-smart kitchen is next, a fine display with its waterfall marble island bench, soft-closing cabinety and elite appliances. The boarded living zone incorporates a study zone and a wall of clever, discreet storage. The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and a stunning en suite with egg-shaped freestanding bath, walk-in double shower and a floating marble-topped vanity unit; it accesses a lap pool, as does the living room. Heating, cooling and C-Bus system add further appeal to this secluded, yet central, address.

All gorgeous California bungalow on the outside, this smashing double storey on about 515 square metres is contemporary to its back teeth on the inside. Lovely pale floorboards delineate the stretch of the family-meals zone, which has bifolds to a deck, as well as in the large living room (bifolds to deck, vaulted ceiling), which has a trendy bar. The kitchen, with all the mod-cons, is not only a pleasing workspace but also a great gathering place for entertaining. Two downstairs bedrooms (with wardrobes) share a sleek bathroom, while the main is upstairs and has a walk-in fitted wardrobe and an en suite with walk-in shower. Also upstairs is a separate study-retreat space. A downstairs powder room and laundry with walk-in storage room are other treats. A covered barbecue area is out back, along with plenty of lawn and a shed. Just moments from Vernon Street’s vibrant village atmosphere, this is a property sure to stir interest.

Back in the 1800s, this glorious Victorian served as a newsagency and residence, and is now a fantastic house offering the option of running a business from the shopfront, or converting this to a great living area. Right on the edge of buzzing Yarraville, the house has a priceless charm with a bohemian edge, and period features are everywhere. These include baltic boards, stepped cornices and skirts, high ceilings (some boarded), sash windows, picture rails, stained-glass panes, corbelled archway, bay window and stunning fireplaces with original surrounds. Three bedrooms (each with fireplace and wardrobes) share an atmospheric bathroom with clawfoot tub, pedestal basin and period toilet cistern. The fully boarded kitchen has a cooker set in an original brick chimney and living spaces are full of character. A deck looks over established gardens and a sandpit. Parking is via rear access. Ducted heating, evaporative cooling and solar panels are additions.

61 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ JULY 22, 2015

SPORT Fighting Vikings earn their place Altona has created a wedge between the top five and the chasing pack after a hard-fought five-point win over high-flying Hoppers Crossing in the Western Region Football League division 1 at Grant Reserve on Saturday. The Vikings finally got some breathing space on the ladder, moving two games and percentage clear of the sixth-placed Sunshine Kangaroos, though the Roos have a game in hand. Vikings player-coach Josh Russo urged his side to keep building on its current three-game winning streak, and not to take their position in the five for granted. “It’s important to write your own destiny rather than waiting for someone else to slip up,” he told Star Weekly. “The facts are, if we keep winning and keep doing the right things, we’ll get a spot on merit as opposed to luck or something like that.

“We want to earn our spot and we want to get there by winning games.” The victory has gone some way to validating the Vikings finals push. Before the round, they had not beaten a side currently above them on the ladder since round one. With the win over the Warriors, the Vikings sent a message that, not only do they want to feature in the finals, they want to make a deep run at the business end. “It was really pleasing to beat a quality opposition and build a bit of belief moving forward that we can compete with the top sides,” Russo said. The big-name players stepped up once again for the Vikings. Jordon Allen, Brett Shiels and Trent Rafferty were dominant, while Travis Lunardi (three goals), Jordan Robbins and Jayden Post (two each) impacted the scoreboard.

Mitch Norton returned from the Western Jets for a week and impressed in his senior debut. In fairness, you could reel off a long list of Vikings players who won the positions, such was the overall team effort needed to topple a red-hot Warriors outfit. “It was very hard to pick best-on on the basis that everyone played their role and did their bit,” Russo said. The Vikings will feature in the match of the round on their trip to Spotswood on Saturday. The Woodsmen will go in with a bit of confidence after a six-goal win over Albion at McLean Reserve, where Murray Boyd kicked four goals and Jye Orchard was named best. Meanwhile, Deer Park’s 23-month unbeaten run came to a halt when it lost by 55 points to Werribee Districts. More WRFL: page 64. Lance Jenkinson

IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ It finally happened. Deer Park lost a game of football, something they have not endured for nearly two years. The loss will not jeopardise their position on top of the ladder, but it does give hope to all the sides in finals contention that they can be beaten. It also gives coach Marc Bullen new motivation for the rest of the season. Contrary to some of the Deer Park faithful who spoke to me after and during the game, I did not take great personal delight in seeing the Lions lose. I think it is good for the competition and I also think it will be good for the reigning premiers in the long run. Werribee Districts did their homework and they worked relentlessly to get the four points. Well done. ■ Albanvale Football Club is by no means one of the glamour clubs of the WRFL. However, there is a lot to like about the club and the people involved. Internally they are a band of brothers. This is best illustrated by the recent and upcoming milestones. John Sirianni played his 400th game recently, John Allen his 300th and in the next few weeks Brendan Cassar has his 300th and Dean Formosa his 400th, all Albanvale games. Those names along with Borg, Henderson, Spatolisano, Cuthbertson, Karim and Bassi have been at the club for many years. They have not won a senior flag despite many finals’ appearances but are red-hot favourites in division 3 this year.

Delight for mean Greens By Lance Jenkinson Defence ruled when the teams with the best attacking and best defensive records squared off in Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 4 west on Saturday. Maribyrnong Greens, the table-topping side with the stingiest defence, and Melbourne City, the third-placed team with the most potent strikeforce, cancelled each other out in a 0-0 draw at Edwards Reserve in Spotswood. Greens coach Damir Basic was delighted with his side’s ability to blunt the attacking capabilities of City and maintain a one-point lead at the top of the ladder as a result of picking up a point on the road. “They’re third on the ladder, but they’ve got the best attack in the competition and have scored something like 40 goals,” Basic said. “They had more possession, they had control of the game in the middle of the ground, but they were always going to do that because we were playing on the counter-attack. 62 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ JULY 22, 2015

“It was the best attack versus the best defence and the defence won on the day.” The Greens’ defence remained unflustered throughout the 90 minutes. Whenever goalkeeper Semir Ekic was called upon to make a save, he rose to the challenge. Ekic didn’t have to get his gloves too dirty, though, with Ahmedin Suljic-Medo and Dean Basic in control in the heart of the defence. “They didn’t have many chances,” Basic said. “It was a game of few chances.” The Greens have stood firm at the top of the ladder for four straight weeks and are on track to reach their target of a better finish than last season, which would mean eclipsing 33 points and finishing above fourth. The title race, however, is a different story. “We are on the top, but it’s going to be very hard work to stay there,” Basic said. “In the last seven games, we’re playing five away and only two games at home. “It’s really tough … I would say we are not

favourite to win it because it’s very hard to play away in this competition.” The Greens face a tough away trip to Melton Phoenix on Saturday. Elsewhere in state league 4, Altona North was outclassed 3-1 by title contender Bell Park, while Laverton Park’s painful season continued with a 3-1 defeat to Brimbank Stallions. In state league 1, Altona Magic closed to within a point of top spot after a 4-1 mauling of Corio at Paisley Park, led by a double from Abu Konteh, while Altona East Phoenix continued its rise up the ladder with a 3-1 win over North Sunshine Eagles. In state league 2, Yarraville Glory rolled over Heidelberg Stars 4-2 after a hat-trick to Darcey Den Ouden, keeping Glory within touching distance of ladder leading Moreland United. In state league 3, Altona City claimed a 3-2 win over Geelong Rangers after a double to Bobby Lojanica, and Williamstown edged out Upfield 2-1.

Johnny Volkanovski has the dancing feet for Maribyrnong Greens. (Damjan Janevski)

■ They don’t make them much tougher than Dale Morris who played his 200th AFL game last week for the Bulldogs. Unfortunately it was a loss to the Cats but nothing can sour the amazing achievement of one of the most popular men to wear the red, white and blue. He battled to get to league footy. He didn’t make the TAC cup, went to Werribee on the recommendation of Simon Minton Connell and he did not exactly have clubs clamouring for his services. After a few rejections and 36 games for Werribee, the Bulldogs finally rookie-listed him. The broken leg he suffered in 2011 would have ended the career of a lesser person. He never gave up and eventually came back and has plenty more football left in him. And he is a gem of a bloke. One of those people who you can’t help but like and who you want to see do well.

Currie opts for enjoyment factor By Lance Jenkinson Tim Currie made what seems to be a wise decision to get out of his northern suburbs comfort zone and move to the Williamstown Football Club in a bid for better opportunities to play senior football at VFL level. At the start of last season, the defender crossed from the Northern Blues, where for two years he had been stuck in the club’s development league and overlooked for a senior team mostly filled with Carlton players who had not made the cut for the AFL side. Being a stand-alone club, the Seagulls naturally have more open spots in the senior team. But Currie has also found Williamstown to have a better team environment, with all the players pulling towards one goal making for a more enjoyable experience. “With a stand-alone club, the main thing is you train with the same people Monday, Tuesday and Thursday,” he told Star Weekly. “When you get 18 or so Carlton blokes running out with the Northern Blues on the weekend it feels like a lot of you are just in the development side, so I guess you don’t have that continuity you do with everyone at Williamstown. “At a stand-alone club, we’re playing at the best level we can, so that’s a factor as well.” Currie’s first year at Williamstown was a continuation of his steep learning curve in the development league. The tall but lightly framed key position player managed just one senior game last season, the same number as in his previous two seasons with the Blues. But the Eltham resident stuck at it, continuing to get up at 7am for his shifts at a roofing company to pay the bills, studying in

After three frustrating years, the 23-year-old has no intentions of relinquishing his spot in the team without a fight. “I’ve got an opportunity now and I’m trying to grab it with both hands,” he said. “I know if I play a bad game I could be on the chopping block, so I’m just trying to play my role each week and that’s all I can do really.” Currie has settled into a key defensive post but has not always been a defender. As a teenager at the Northern Knights in the TAC Cup and then with the Blues, he was mainly used as a forward – but he sees his strengths suited to being a tall defender before pinch-hitting forward. “I can read the play a bit better down back and I’ve got a bit of closing speed, which helps,” Currie said. “I don’t mind having a bit of a release and getting up forward but I definitely enjoy playing down back.” A little bonus for Currie since arriving in the Seagulls nest is getting to know about the rich history of the club. He is fascinated by some of the stories he is being told by the club’s elder statesmen. “You speak to the older people and they tell you the traditions of the club and it’s quite inspiring really,” Currie said. Currie is keeping his fingers crossed that he is selected for Saturday’s clash with Port Melbourne at North Port Oval. “It’s a great rivalry so it’s going to be a big week,” he said. “I’m sure there will be a big crowd and the atmosphere will be really good, so I’m very excited about that – hopefully I get a game.” The first bounce will be at the earlier time of 12.12pm as the match will be broadcast live on Channel Seven before its AFL coverage.

SPORT MARIBYRNONG.STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

Headwinds confront Seagulls in push for finals It’s the calm before the storm for Altona in the Hockey Victoria men’s premier league. Two weekends off were helpful for the Seagulls, but their season will be at the crossroads this week. The sixth-placed Gulls will play two games in four days against the two opponents fighting it out for that coveted fourth spot in the finals, and it leaves no margin for error. First up, the Seagulls will square off with fifth-placed Footscray at J. K. Grant Reserve on Saturday, followed by a Tuesday night clash with fourth-placed Greensborough at the State Netball Hockey Centre. “Four days can make or break finals for us,” Seagulls coach Ben Newell told Star Weekly. “They’re two big games; we win and we’re in the four; if we lose, we lose a bit of touch with the teams we’re competing with for the finals spots. I’m glad we’re playing Footscray, I’m glad we’re playing Greensborough.

“If we win, we get our destiny back in our own hands.” So important is Saturday’s game in the context of the season, the western suburbs rivalry with Footscray will be put on the shelf until next time they meet. There is too much at stake for these sides to get caught up in local bragging rights, according to Newell. “From our point of view, we’re not even talking about local rivalry. “It’s more to do with how much work we’ve done during the year to play finals. “They’re just one of a number of teams standing in our way at the moment, so we need to treat this game like a six-point game.” Altona has been hard to read this season, as reflected in its mid-table ladder position and record of six wins, five losses and a draw.

A young team, Altona is prone to having off-days, but Newell is hoping the next six weeks will bring about more consistency from his side. “We’re beating good teams, but we’re just not getting consistent form week in week out, which is probably reflective with the ladder position,” he said. “We need that consistency for the next six weeks.” Altona should be at full strength come the weekend. The Seagulls will welcome back young stars Harry Dolenc, Andrew Scanlon, Matthew Huf (all Victoria) and Josh Norton (Northern Territory) from under-21 state representative duty, while Matthew Guest should arrive home in time after representing Canada at the Pan Am Games.

Sport shorts Lacrosse

Williamstown was never going to be caught after it slammed on seven unanswered goals in the first quarter of its clash with Camberwell in the Lacrosse Victoria men’s state league at Fearon Reserve on Saturday. The Fearons went on to record a cruisey 19-7 win and maintain their one-game lead at the top of the ladder. Blake Taylor was on song for the Fearons with four goals, while Eric Armstrong, Josh Ardossi and Aaron Lawman fired in three apiece. The Fearons will travel to Surrey Park on Saturday for a first-versus-second blockbuster. Footscray was also victorious, downing Eltham 14-8. Chris Plumb was outstanding in attack for the Bulldogs with four goals. The Dogs will host MCC at Angliss Reserve on Saturday.

Tune-up for Roosters By Lance Jenkinson West Footscray sought and executed its own terms to dictate the top-of-the-table bout with Wyndhamvale and win by 11 points in the Western Region Football League division 2 at Shorten Reserve on Saturday. The Roosters had gone away from their trademark competitiveness at the coalface at times this season and needed to recalibrate in a big game against a fellow premiership contender. Roosters coach David Orchard said his side had a physical edge in the contest and it went some way towards winning. “We were looking for a good contested game and that’s what we got,” he told Star Weekly. “We’ve got a lot of bigger bodies but we haven’t put that out there right up until this week.” It was important for the Roosters to get one back on Wyndhamvale ahead of likely meetings in the finals. The sides appear to have the top two spots locked up and that would mean they meet in week one of the finals for a direct passage to the grand final. The Roosters not only moved two games and 64 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY \ JULY 22, 2015

percentage clear of third but also kept their minor premiership chances alive. They are just a game behind Wyndhamvale with near identical percentages. Orchard is not too fussed if the Roosters finish in first or second but wants his side to build some momentum ahead of the finals and get back to playing their brand of football. If nothing else, it was a major psychological boost for the Roosters in the run-in to the finals. “One or two, it’s neither here nor there,” Orchard said. “At the end of the day, you get your second chance if you finish in the top two. That’s where we are now and that’s where we were sort of looking at finishing.” Michael Kennedy dominated in the air to be the driving force behind the Roosters’ win. The ruckman is held in high regard around the club and the competition. “Week in, week out, his attitude and professionalism towards getting himself up for the game is second to none,” Orchard said. “He missed four games last year and missed out on the comp medal by three votes, so it shows where he’s at as a player and he’s only getting better as we go on, too.”

Tim Lyon was one of the standouts on the wing in his first senior game back from injury. Tobi Bray, the inspirational captain, and Jadyn Trowdale were consistent four-quarter performers, while Damien Yze continued his purple patch in front of goal with three majors. But it was the lesser lights who provided the Roosters with the spark they needed. “It shows with the number we had out that we’ve still got that depth there, which is good for the club,” Orchard said. The Roosters face a danger game against an in-form Caroline Springs away at Town Centre Oval on Saturday. Elsewhere in division 2, North Footscray, led by best-on-ground Sam Kater and five-goal star Lucas Hall, was brutal in an 86-point win over Manor Lakes at Hansen Reserve. Yarraville-Seddon got back into the winners’ circle with a 95-point domination of bottom side Sunshine Heights at the Yarraville Oval. In division 3, Laverton Magpies had a stirring two-goal win over the much-fancied Wyndham Suns at Laverton Park. Parkside had to do it the hard way to beat Tarneit by 16 points after wayward kicking almost brought it undone.

Williamstown CYMS has claimed the VAFA Premier C scalp it wanted the most. The CYs not only thrashed Therry Penola by 67 points in the grand final rematch at Fearon Reserve but also moved a step closer to staying up in their first year of third-tier amateur football. Young forward Nick Ebinger booted six goals for CYs for the second week running, taking his season tally to 47 from 11 games. More importantly, the win helped CYs move two games and percentage clear of the relegation zone with six games remaining. The CYs will hit the road for a clash with finals contenders Old Haileyburians at Princes Park on Saturday.

Rugby league

Altona Roosters remain competitive in Victorian Rugby League first grade despite falling out of the finals race weeks ago. The second-last Roosters took the challenge right up to premiership contender Casey Warriors before going down 30-22 at Casey Fields on Saturday. The Roosters will make the short trip to Niddrie to face North West Wolves on Saturday.

Rugby union

Footscray has bowed out of the Victorian Rugby Union Dewar Shield finals race. The last rites were read for the Bulldogs’ 2015 campaign after Saturday’s 43-29 loss to Box Hill at Henry Turner Reserve. The Bulldogs will round out the season with a home game against Harlequin on Saturday.
