Prestige project ‘stuck’ A “landmark” development promised to rejuvenate the heart of Footscray is languishing, five years after it was announced. The ‘State Trustees’ office building at 1 McNab Avenue is the only structure built as part of the three-stage, $350 million McNab Avenue development adjacent to Footscray station. It was opened with great fanfare in 2010. Then-planning minister Justin Madden said the 1.3-hectare “flagship development” would deliver new residential, commercial and community spaces, cafés and other facilities “in a sophisticated architectural design”. The project, due to have been finished last year, was supposed to include 250 student dwellings, 240 apartments and 110 affordable housing units, as well as a gym, childcare centre and community hub with gallery space and community garden. Yet five years on there is no sign of the second or third stages at the site, owned by the state government’s property development agency Places Victoria (PV). PV also owns the prime former Binks Ford site north-east of Footscray railway station, another stalled redevelopment. And it recently offloaded a site on Hopkins Street in the Josephs Road precinct at a financial loss. Maribyrnong mayor Nam Quach said he was frustrated by the delay in building the project’s accommodation and community elements. “It’s always a balance on

’’
- Nam Quach A Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning spokesman said the government remained in negotiations with developer Grocon over stage two, the accommodation component. “The development of this stage will need to address changes to the site’s conditions since the previous concept design was prepared,” he said. “These changes include the new Metro Trains Melbourne substation and reconfiguration of the stage one office building footprint to mitigate wind issues.” A Public Transport Victoria spokesman said the substation, completed last year, provided power to Footscray train services. “The final location was based on considerations including proximity to Footscray Junction for efficient train operations and the wider Grocon proposed development,” he said. Grocon has been contacted for comment.

Say cheese, again Williamstown will this month host the second Wine and Cheese Fest at Seaworks, with more than 60 vendors expected. Organiser Vil Klun said most of the exhibitors were from Victoria but some were coming from interstate. “We have expanded quite a bit in terms of the offering,” he said. “Last year was the first year so we weren’t quite sure what to expect. But once we knew what the potential was we made sure we secured quite a lot of vendors ... Melbourne is a festival-type of city . . . so we sort of found our little niche.” The festival, which features a ‘grape stomp comp’, is on Sunday, October 25 from 11am-6pm. Tickets are capped at 5000 and start from $23. Details: www. wineandcheesefest.com.au Goya Dmytryshchak

Confidence yields more reports By Goya Dmytryshchak Sexual offences reported to Hobsons Bay police rose from 94 to 162 last financial year, new Crime Statistics Agency figures reveal. Police and counselling organisations attribute the increase to survivors being more confident in reporting sexual assaults. Jane Vanderstoel, chief executive of the Footscray-based Western Region Centre Against Sexual Assault, said her organisation had experienced an increase in people seeking counselling and support, putting this down to
“a shift in the secrecy that surrounds sexual abuse”. “I believe there has been a shift in the secrecy that surrounds sexual abuse,” she said. “That has come from both the state and federal government inquiries and Royal Commissions into institutional sexual assault and family violence. “These forums provide channels for the unspeakable to be spoken.” Hobsons Bay’s Inspector Michelle Young said that while the figures looked confronting, many sexual offences being reported were ‘historical’.
“We believe that there has been more public awareness and improved confidence to report historic matters,” she said. “The community should feel assured that we do not believe there is an issue with sexual assaults occurring within Hobsons Bay.” Counsellor Mairead Ashcroft has started a support group in Altona for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse. “Many survivors seem to feel safer telling their stories than they may have been in the past, due to the work of Rosie Batty on domestic violence and the Royal Commission
into religious and institutional abuse,” she said. “One of the greatest difficulties that has been shared with me by survivors is the isolation experienced while trying to recover from such life-changing criminal acts. “I established Tribe Transformation, a free support group for adult survivors of childhood sexual abuse, to ease their isolation in our community.” The group meets at Altona Homestead on the second and fourth Wednesday of the month, at 7pm.

An Altona woman told police her Mazda was broken into while parked on Maidstone Street, Altona, some time between 11.50pm on Thursday and 2.30pm, Friday. A number of items were stolen from the car, including a laptop with tracking software. The woman used her own software to identify the laptop as possibly being on Holehouse Street, Sunshine North. Detectives and members of the Operations Response Unit went to the street. After speaking to numerous residents, they obtained a search warrant for a particular house. Searching it, police found the laptop along with four firearms, ammunition, a conducted energy device, cash and drugs. Three men were arrested at the scene.

Tribunal rejects child care centre By Benjamin Millar The Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal has rejected plans to build a child care centre on a contaminated industrial site in Yarraville. One of Four Pty Ltd took Maribyrnong council to VCAT in August over its refusal of a permit for the 124-child centre in an industrial 3 zone at 167-173 Hyde Street. VCAT members Geoffrey Code and Catherine Wilson noted that potential advantages of the site included its large size,
frontage to a busy road, a 24-hour truck curfew, location on a designated bicycle route, and a bus stop out the front. “There is no residential use on any of the land’s abuttals, which means the common potential amenity impacts of a child care centre (that is, noise, traffic and non-residential intrusion) do not apply,” they said in their decision. They said the site was contaminated, abutted a trucking depot and was near the Port of Melbourne and the major hazard facilities of Coode Island and the Mobil Yarraville
Terminal. The land had previously been used for quarrying, blacksmithing, landfill, a petrol filling station, manufacturing and transportrelated industries. An environmental site assessment found contamination including lead, copper, nickel, petroleum hydrocarbons and asbestos. Although VCAT found an appropriate emergency response plan could address safety risks associated with the two major hazard facilities, there were also strong concerns over noise and air pollution from the adjoining Murphy Transport Solutions site.
“The density of diesel engines in such close proximity to the centre elevates the risks of unacceptable air quality,” the VCAT report stated. The two VCAT members also remained unconvinced that measures such as a noise wall would be enough to allow children to sleep. “That there is a need for a 55-metre-long and seven-metre-high acoustic barrier to meet the design target shows the scale of the potential acoustic problem,” they said. “In conclusion, the child care centre and Murphy Transport Solutions are incompatible neighbours.”
Cool kids fight warming Four friends seeking a brighter future for their planet are preparing to take part in this month’s Melbourne Marathon. Seddon’s Mischa Carr, 11, will join his mates Ben, Michael and Spencer in tackling a shortened 5.7-kilometre section of the course on Sunday, October 18, in the hope of raising $2500 for environmental campaign Climate for Change. Mischa says the Cool Kids for Climate team wants to help Climate for Change, created by his mother, Katerina Gaita, as it works towards a more sustainable future. “Climate for Change is an organisation trying to prevent climate change from happening by spreading the message using the Tupperware party model,” he said. “We want to grow up in a world we can enjoy.” Climate for Change recognises that most people want to take strong action on tackling climate change and helps provide the means
to pressure leaders to act. Michael said it was important that people understood the changes the world would undergo without more being done to reduce the impact of climate change. “Sea levels will rise and people who live on the islands in the Pacific are going to lose their homes,” he said. “There’s also going to be less rain, it will change the animals’ habitat and there will be more droughts and bushfires.” The boys, who are in grade 5 at Footscray City and Yarraville West primary schools, are seeking sponsorship from local businesses and individual supporters and will take part in other fundraising activities such as busking. Ben said the fun run distance was not daunting as they had covered similar distances in school cross-country events.

A fierce backlash against a proposed six-lane truck flyover through Yarraville parkland could force Transurban back to the drawing board as fuel terminal operators call for further consultation on the plan. The Maribyrnong Truck Action Group (MTAG) has joined Friends of Stony Creek and Concerned Locals of Yarraville in criticising design changes to Transurban’s $5.5 billion Western Distributor. The changes would relocate the tunnel portal from Williamstown Road to land near homes and the Hyde Park Reserve, carving a swathe through a rare slice of green space. MTAG met Transurban representatives last week to discuss the proposal but emerged unsatisfied the plan would effectively get trucks off inner-west roads. While supporting exploration of a new route for trucks carrying dangerous loads, MTAG remains concerned about impacts on open space and unresolved issues surrounding tunnel filtration and truck bans. Transurban argues the new road link with Hyde Street could help take about 1000 dangerous goods trucks such as fuel tankers away from residential streets such as Francis Street and Williamstown Road. Transurban spokeswoman Bridget Brady said the toll road operator had met the Victorian Transport Association and National Bulk Tankers Association, representing the dangerous and hazardous goods transport sector.

Hostile greeting for flyover plan “We also had meetings with the Wharf Carriers Group and members of the Container Transport Alliance Australia and a number of local businesses in the port precinct,” she said. But Mobil spokeswoman Melanie Saliba said the company, whose Yarraville terminal is accessed by about 250 tankers each day, hadn’t been consulted. “Mobil has not yet been contacted by Transurban for feedback and we look forward to discussing the latest Western Distributor

proposal with them in the near future,” she said. Viva Energy spokeswoman Jo Powell said the company wasn’t contacted by Transurban and was reviewing the plans to assess impacts on its Newport terminal in Burleigh Street. Caltex spokesman Sam Collyer said Transurban had yet to discuss the proposal with the company, which handles up to 250 fuel truck movements a day at its Newport terminal in Douglas Parade. Ms Brady said further community feedback would assist in developing the design before decisions were made. Information sessions will be held from 4-8pm on Thursday, October 8, at South Kingsville Community Centre and from 9.30am-1pm on Saturday, October 10, at the Yarraville Club.
NICK TSILIGIRIS
The hole story on film Budding filmmakers Ian Tran and Rachel Morssink are bringing a Footscray icon to the big screen. Jam-packed with insights into a colourful history, Olympic Nick: A Donutumentary traces the journey of 80-year-old doughnut-maker Nick Tsiligiris. Nick’s hot jam doughnuts have been tempting locals and visitors alike at Footscray railway station since 1979. Made to a secret recipe, the 80-cent doughnuts “feel like something from the past”, according to Morssink. She said making the documentary had been an invaluable opportunity to discover the story behind Nick’s quiet charm and ever-present smile. “Ian grew up in Footscray and has known Nick almost his whole life,” she said. “Nick has been there for 35 years. People love the fact he stays true to himself as the area changes around
him. I fell in love with him instantly.” Morssink said the project was also a “love letter to Footscray” and everything that makes the area unique. The project was selected from a large field of applicants for the Raw Nerve Production Initiative, supported by independent screen organisation Open Channel. Morssink and Tran met at a film-making course last summer and were surprised to be chosen for a small grant under the initiative. Filming has been completed, but the pair has begun crowdfunding to complete post-production and help take the film far and wide. Olympic Nick: A Donutumentary will screen at Yarraville’s Sun Theatre on November 29. Details: www.pozible.com/olympicnick Benjamin Millar

It’s not just about the scones … Louise Taylor has been cooking up plans for a new Footscray branch of the Country Women’s Association, and says baking prowess is just the tip of the CWA iceberg. The West Footscray resident notes the CWA has been involved in vital community work since 1928, in areas ranging from child and maternal health to tackling drug problems. “It’s actually the largest women’s advocacy group in Australia,” she said. “It’s a powerful organisation. We work as advocates, covering social issues like ice addiction, suicide prevention and family violence.” Although facing decline in some areas, the CWA is growing in others, and still has about 6000 members in 330 branches across Victoria.
Ms Taylor said a recent resurgence had led to branches opening in Altona, Essendon and Point Cook. “It’s really about friendship. I think there’s a lot of urban isolation – it’s not just in the country. It’s somewhere women can have a friendship group, be part of a community.” Ms Taylor’s own involvement began three years ago as a member of the Point Cook branch. She said there was now strong interest in a new branch in the Yarraville, Seddon and Footscray area. An information meeting, with supper, will be held on Tuesday, October 13, 6-8pm, at Footscray library. Contact: cwaofvicfootscray@ gmail.com Benjamin Millar

More jobs to go at shipyard The axeing of 70 more job cuts has been announced at BAE Systems naval shipyard in Williamstown. The latest losses follow the axeing of 125 jobs in August and signal the imminent end of Victoria’s only shipyard unless new work orders are brought forward. The Australian Manufacturing Workers Union is calling on the Federal Government to urgently intervene to save the approximate 500 jobs remaining. AMWU assistant national secretary Glenn Thompson said BAE management gave notice to 70 primarily white-collar employees at the end of their shifts last week. “BAE advised 70 workers, primarily people in planning, scheduling and supervision within the Williamstown yard, that they will be made redundant,” he said. “If there is no work coming forward in that yard come the first quarter of next year, there will a handful of blue-collar workers left in that facility to maintain the infrastructure.” Mr Thompson said the union was calling on Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull and Defence Minister Senator Marise Payne to urgently bring forward new shipbuilding work until the promised $39 billion offshore Pacific vessel program and future frigates program begin in 2018 and 2020. “And we need a firm commitment from the Turnbull Government to build 12 submarines in Australia,” Mr Thompson said.
BAE spokeswoman Kaye Noske said there were about 500 shipbuilders left at Williamstown, down from 1100 last October when HMAS Canberra departed the yard. “The reductions progressively occurring in Williamstown are the result of a reducing backlog in naval shipbuilding work as current projects complete with no new projects coming behind them,” she said.
‘‘
We need a commitment . . . to build 12 submarines in Australia
’’
- Glenn Thompson
A spokeswoman for former defence minister Kevin Andrews said in August it was too late to bridge the gap between jobs at Williamstown. Federal Gellibrand MP Tim Watts said the state’s shipbuilding industry was heading the same way as car manufacturing. “Joe Hockey dared the car industry to leave and it did,” he said. “Now the Liberals are doing exactly the same thing with the shipbuilding industry. We’re on to our third Liberal defence minister in a year and it shows. They all seem content to wave goodbye to Australia’s shipbuilding industry, as well as thousands of high-skilled Australian jobs.” The new Defence Minister was contacted for comment but had not responded by deadline.

MARJORIE SCULLEY
Century of ‘best days’ Altona’s Marjorie Sculley, 99, will help Altona Primary School celebrate its centenary this month. Ms Sculley – who back then was Marjorie Phair – is the school’s oldest-known former pupil. She will return for the celebrations from Monday, October 19 to Friday, October 24. “Everybody knew everybody in those days; we were a very small school,” she recalled this week. “I was happy here.” Her son, Rob Richardson, will broadcast live from the school for his WYNFM 88.9 radio show, The Sound of the West, from 3-5pm on October 19. Mr Richardson said his family had a long connection with the school. “My mother started here in about 1920,” he
said. “My grandfather was working on building the school at the time and my grandmother ran the tuck shop across the corner in Upton Street. “So there was a connection with my mother and her sister and her brother for all their schooling. Later, in the 1940s, I went to school here.” Images, memorabilia and stories have been collected from people whose families have been part of the school for generations. Altona Primary will be open to the public from 1.30-3.30pm during the week-long celebrations.

Drivers drop ball in road blitz By Goya Dmytryshchak Victoria’s first AFL grand final long weekend didn’t go well for 44 drivers in Maribyrnong and Hobsons Bay. Victoria Police detected 28 offences in Maribyrnong and 16 in Hobsons Bay as part of Operation Scoreboard, a statewide road blitz that ran throughout the three-day break. Across the state, 1900 drivers were tested for drugs, with 218 (one in nine) returning a positive result. More than 121,000 drivers were breath-tested
for alcohol, with 286 blowing over the legal limit. In Maribyrnong, police caught two disqualified and two unlicensed drivers, three speeding drivers, four unregistered vehicles, 13 drivers for disobeying a traffic control, three seatbelt offences and one driver using a mobile phone. Two cyclists were also fined. In Hobsons Bay, police detected two unregistered vehicles, two drink-drivers, nine disqualified drivers and one unlicensed driver. And they issued two tickets for not wearing a seatbelt.
Assistant Commissioner Doug Fryer said it was disappointing to see more than 500 impaired drivers across Victoria. “Each one of them is lucky we caught them before they killed themselves or someone else,” he said. “Now that we’re moving into the spring racing and holiday season we need to understand that being irresponsible on the road can lead to death or serious injury. “By all means go out and enjoy yourself, but if you plan to drink or choose to take drugs, plan a safe way home: use a designated driver, call a taxi or take public transport.”
Police recorded 163 offences in neighbouring Brimbank and Wyndham. In Wyndham, police detected 30 unregistered vehicles, six drink-drivers, four disqualified and nine unlicensed drivers, and 19 speeders. They issued eight tickets for disobeying traffic controls, 10 for no seatbelt, and eight for mobile phone offences. They impounded two vehicles and one cyclist was fined. In Brimbank, police detected 19 unregistered vehicles, three drink-drivers, eight disqualified and five unlicensed drivers, 15 speeders and one seatbelt and five mobile phone offences.
Heads up on Bay quest kilometres across the treacherous mouth of the bay, from Queenscliff to Sorrento. Mr Colebatch said the fundraising challenge would be extra personal this time around. “I’ve just completed a stint with The Smith Family mentoring program,” he said. “I was helping out with things like career advice. I’ll be giving an extra bit of push because of my connection with The Smith Family.” Raising $130,000 would help support 222 kids in need – one for every kilometre of the Pirates’ challenge. Participants in the 50-kilometre Around the Bay ride can enjoy free entertainment by the Hobsons Bay Band from 9.30am-noon at Altona’s Logan Reserve, the turning point for the journey.

How do you trump a 210-kilometre ride around the bay on an 18-kilogram Melbourne Bike Share bike? By not only repeating the ride, but jumping out of your saddle to row a boat across the heads of Port Phillip Bay. Yarraville’s Dmitri Colebatch, 40, will be joining the 27-man Pirates Sporting Club team in tackling Melbourne’s Around the Bay event this Sunday. The team – the first in the event’s 21-year history to row across the bay – aims to raise a record $130,000 for The Smith Family in the process. “We raised $55,000 last year riding the Melbourne bikes and had a great day of it,” Mr Colebatch said. “We thought … it needs to get bigger and better so had to think of a way to take this crazy thing and make it even harder.” While the rest of the event’s riders wait for a ferry, the Pirates Sporting Club team will hop into surf boats and start rowing the 12

War on crime brings results By Goya Dmytryshchak and Benjamin Millar
The simple joy of a toy Leeza Darsmase was overjoyed last week as she played with new toys donated through the Footscray office of AMES Australia. The four-year-old arrived in Australia five months ago with her father, Sri Lankan asylum-seeker Thavachelvam Darsmase, mother Maragadam and nine-month-old sister Lydia after the Tamil family fled their home to escape the aftermath of the civil war. “The children are very happy with the toys,” Mr Darsmase said. “They love them and we’re very thankful.” The toys were part of a load delivered by staff from the Department of Human Services Refugee and Asylum Seekers Victoria team. The toy drive was the brainchild of DHS staff member Steve Flounders, who launched it during Refugee Week. “Coming to a new country is difficult, even more so for children,” he said. Benjamin Millar

Inner-west crime-fighting tactics are working, with reported crimes dropping three per cent in Hobsons Bay and nine per cent in Maribyrnong in a year. Crime Statistics Agency figures released last week show reported crimes fell from 6921 to 6717 in Hobsons Bay in the year to June 30. There was a jump in sexual offences from 94 to 162, which police and support groups attributed to ‘historical’ crimes and greater confidence in speaking out. Assaults remained unchanged at 570, although this was up from 384 five years ago. There were 49 robberies, down two – a significant drop from 84 reported in 2011. Burglaries dropped by 26 to 613, while thefts declined from 2756 to 2555. Drug offences were all down, with 31 offences for dealing and trafficking, 20 for cultivation and manufacturing, and 220 for use and possession. Hobsons Bay’s Inspector Michelle Young said it was the second consecutive year that overall crime had fallen. “Hobsons Bay is a fantastic area where everything works so well together – the police with the community – and that contributes to overall crime reduction,” she said. “There’s a lot of proactive [policing] as well.” In Maribyrnong assaults dropped from 621 to 430, robbery was down from 90 to 81, but stalking, harassment and threatening behaviour rose from 109 to 120 and sexual offences from 119 to 122. Theft fell from 3643 to 3376, while burglaries jumped from 787 to 884. Statewide, there were 220,088 victims and 82,280 alleged offenders recorded by Victoria Police.

Goat’s Japanese beer buyout
Cam Hines and David Bonighton have sold their Mountain Goat brewery to Asahi. (Thom Rigney)
we will be able to convert many more people to craft beer than we could do on our own.” The pair said the sale would allow them to focus more on brewing beer and their aim of continuously improving quality. “This was a key aspect of the sale for both sides,” they said. “Over the past 18 years we’ve been on a determined exploration of good beer. Back then we knew Australian beer-lovers deserved more than bland, yellow fizzy lager, but it was difficult to find. It’s the reason we started the brewery.” Mountain Goat employs about 25 full-time
Japanese beer giant Asahi has bought Lavertonbased boutique brewer Mountain Goat. Cam Hines and David Bonighton founded Mountain Goat in 1997 after “cranking out” home brews in Mr Bonighton’s backyard. The pair said in a joint statement they would be “sticking around” at Mountain Goat and had a good working relationship with Asahi. “We’ve been contract partners with Asahi for three years,” they said. “With their expert help, our beer has grown in demand, expanded nationally and found a special place with beer-lovers. “We are confident that with Asahi on board,
staff and another 20 casuals, according to its website. It brews its smaller-volume beers at a Richmond-based microbrewery and bigger batches, including 330ml bottled and 375ml canned beer, at a larger plant in Laverton. The multinational beverage company’s purchase of Mountain Goat continues the consolidation that has swept through the craft beer sector. It comes after Asahi bought the Cricketers Arms brand, which it produces at Laverton, in April 2013. The Age
Good things brewing Two women who started Australia’s first female-owned brewery at Spotswood are vying for the title of world’s best ale-makers at Wetherspoon’s international beer festival in the UK this month. Yarraville’s Jayne Lewis and business partner Danielle Allen launched their Two Birds golden ale in 2011 and opened the Two Birds Brewing tasting room in 2014. Earlier this year they went to Leicester in the UK to brew 50,000 litres of their award-winning Sunset Ale to be served for the festival. Sunset Ale is a rich brew with toffee, citrus and tropical characters. Ten beers from around the world will compete with 40 beers from the UK for Wetherspoon’s international beer title. Two Birds are up against brewers from New Zealand, Japan, South Africa, Canada, Holland, Norway and the United States.
Ms Lewis described her brew as “very easy drinking”. “The beers we make are really approachable … the kind that you sit and have a few of in a pub, and [they] go really well with food as well,” she said. “To be recognised on an international stage, such as Wetherspoon’s international beer festival, demonstrates that females can do anything they want to, even in a male-dominated industry like beer brewing”. Ms Lewis said the pair decided on Spotswood for a brewery and tasting room open to the public “because it is such an upcoming part of this part of the world”.

NEWS STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
Tragic legacy of speed, drugs Nearly 1000 people were injured and 17 killed on the west’s roads over the past year. RoadSafe Westgate’s annual report shows the 17 people died in incidents across Wyndham, Hobsons Bay, Maribyrnong and Melton during 2014-15. A further 280 people suffered serious injuries and 707 had minor injuries. RoadSafe Westgate, a road safety advocacy group with programs across Hobsons Bay, Maribyrnong, Melton and Wyndham, said while inroads were being made to reduce the road toll, more needed to be done. Chairman Jim Giddings (pictured) said Roadsafe Westgate had been proactive in getting the road safety message out via workshops and billboards targeting L-platers, P-platers and senior drivers alike. “The challenges on road safety issues are still there, but by bringing our local communities on board we will continue to drive changes, including legislative changes,” Mr Giddings said. Speed, hoon drivers and drink-driving were still seen as the greatest contributors to road accidents. Despite speed advisory trailers being parked at targeted locations, highway patrol units recorded a rise in drivers caught speeding in every area except Hobsons Bay. On average, police nab 321 speeding drivers in Melton each month, followed by 140 in Wyndham, 97 in Maribyrnong and 90 in Hobsons Bay. Hooning

MY PLACE Altona North’s Fatoum Souki was a volunteer lawyer at the Western Suburbs Legal Service before starting her own practice in Newport. Ms Souki promotes positive relations between Australian Federal Police and Muslim women and young people. She talks to Goya Dmytryshchak
Because I wanted to contribute and serve the community. It’s been such a rewarding experience and I look forward to continuing to be part of such a great community. What’s your connection to Hobsons Bay? I was raised in Altona North and currently operate my own law practice in Newport. I love the fact that I can service the community that I grew up in, and it helps that I work within walking distance of my home. Our mosque is a place that connects me to the local community … I truly value the council’s continued support in ensuring all residents have a local connection. What do you love about Hobsons Bay? I love that we have the comfort of suburbia while being so close to the
city. There are great local parks and the local markets always guarantee some great finds. I often enjoy weekend brunches and shopping in Williamstown. What would you change about Hobsons Bay? It would be nice to have a larger shopping centre with more options and maybe a cinema. What’s your favourite cafe or eatery? While there are so many great places to enjoy a meal, Cafe Cedar on Melbourne Road in Newport is a great local find. What’s your fondest memory? My fondest memory is growing up and enjoying afternoons in the park with the kids who gathered from the neighbourhood.

Walk to School this October
VicHealth’s Walk to School month highlights the benefits of walking for children, such as improving fitness, friendships, their confidence and the environment. It’s free, easy and a fun way for children to get active. Children who live too far from school to walk the entire way can still participate by driving part way and walking the remainder of the journey. With some great prizes up for grabs and plenty of fun competitions for students during October, Walk to School is a free, easy and fun way for kids to get the 60 minutes of exercise they need each day. Drivers are asked to drive with extra care and patience during October as many more children will be walking to and from school each day.
For more information, contact Council on 9688 0200 or visit www.walktoschool.vic.gov.au

Ska-studded festa on way Next month’s inaugural Newport Ska and Reggae Festival is putting Melbourne’s west on the international music map. Festival director and ska vocalist Steven Montgomery said the world-class line-up had been noticed around the globe and artists were already asking to be part of next year’s festival. Headlining is Jamaican reggae giant Stranger Cole, while other acts include Nicky Bomba and Pat Powel from Australia’s greatest ska export, the Melbourne Ska Orchestra, in which Montgomery also sings. “I’ve lived in Newport for 25 years and I just thought it was time to do something cool in Newport,” Montgomery said. “I’ve followed this music and loved it for a long, long time. “An opportunity came up to have Stranger
Cole come back to Melbourne and I just spoke to people that I’ve dealt with – Way Out West Roots Music Club have been fantastic – and then I went to see Brad [Spolding, director] at The Substation, and he was excited about it. “Newport traders have been fantastic, too, and the [Hobsons Bay] council … all the stars aligned, basically.” Other acts are The Ska Vendors, The Moonhops, DJs Systa BB and Mohair Slim, and the Newport Lakes All Star Band, which formed at Newport Lakes Primary School. The festival is on November 22, 2-10pm, at The Substation. Tickets: $55, children free before 6pm. Details: thesubstation.org.au Goya Dmytryshchak

Nan’s death drives Jess
Worker badly injured by moving train
(Damjan Janevski)
By Adem Saban When Jessica Apap’s grandmother lost her battle with stomach cancer, she was understandably upset. But the 10-year-old Altona Meadows student didn’t have much time to grieve for Nanna, as her uncle died from lung cancer only eight months later. But she decided that she wanted to help find a cure for cancer, so she registered as a team captain for the Point Cook Relay for Life, and has since raised $11,000 for the Cancer Council. “It makes me so sad and angry that Nanna and my uncle were sick with such a horrible thing,” she said. “I wanted to raise as much money as I could so no other family would have to go through what my family did.” With an initial goal of $500, Jessica is still shocked she managed to raise so much money. “I’m really happy and proud that I achieved my goal and then made more,” she said. Jessica’s fundraising efforts have seen her hosting countless sausage sizzles, cake stalls and other activities. He mother, Pauline, said her daughter’s determination was inspiring. “We can’t believe what she’s doing,” Mrs Apap said. “At a time where our family was grieving the loss of two family members, watching her do this has really helped us get through a tough time.” Jessica, the youngest ever Relay for Life team captain, will lead a team of family members at the event. Point Cook Relay for Life will be held at Featherbrook Oval in Point Cook from 4pm on November 14.

A rail track worker suffered multiple injuries when he was struck by a train at Laverton on Friday. The 40-year-old man was taken to the Royal Melbourne Hospital with a deep gash to his head and multiple fractures in his upper body. It is believed he was working on one of the tracks, about 350 metres from the station, when he was clipped by a train about 9.20am. Melbourne Fire Brigade spokesman Trevor Woodward said the man was struck by a protruding part of the first carriage. He said the man was fortunate the train driver was following protocol and travelling slowly through the worksite. There were 200 passengers on board at the time but none was affected. Fire crews helped evacuate commuters, who were ferried by bus to the next station. A Metro spokesman said the incident was being investigated. “Our thoughts are with our employee, his family, our train driver and work- mates, particularly those who were on site at the time,” the spokesman said. “We’re doing all we can to support them during this difficult time.” Police and WorkSafe are investigating the incident.

WESTERN DISTRIBUTOR DESIGN UPDATE Transurban has been talking to many different people and organisations about the Western Distributor, drawing on the knowledge and ideas of the local community and stakeholders to improve our proposal. We are now refining some elements of the Western Distributor’s design. WHAT WE’VE HEARD SO FAR People told us that they would like to see more done to get trucks off local streets, greater improvements to traffic flow on the West Gate Freeway and more information about how the Western Distributor would connect with CityLink and other roads. We’ve published a consultation report detailing what we’ve heard so far on our website - consult.transurban.com.
open space, improve local amenity by removing overhead power lines and upgrade cycling and walking connections, including the Federation Trail - we would love to hear your ideas too. We are also looking at ways to reduce weaving and merging on the West Gate Freeway such as separating tunnel and bridge traffic and considering multiple options for connections to the Port of Melbourne.
REFINING THE PROPOSAL DESIGN
WHAT IS THE WESTERN DISTRIBUTOR?
Having listened to feedback and completed further technical work, some elements of the proposal design are being refined.
Transurban developed the Western Distributor proposal in response to congestion on the M1 corridor and predicted growth in Melbourne’s west.
A key change is the relocation of the southern tunnel portal from the middle of the West Gate Freeway to industrial land north of the Freeway. This allows for new connections to Hyde Street which will help get trucks off local streets, particularly dangerous goods trucks such as fuel tankers. While no homes need to be acquired, it will involve new impacts at Hyde Street Reserve and surrounding areas. In response we’ve identified some new opportunities to add to
It includes a tunnel under Yarraville and elevated road in the port precinct to directly connect the West Gate Freeway with the Port of Melbourne, CityLink and the city. It adds more lanes to the West Gate Freeway and includes upgrades to improve safety and access from Webb Dock.
Find out more and get involved at transurban.com
The proposal is currently being assessed by the Victorian Government.

Discover a floating By Charlene Macaulay We’ve all had holidays where you spend so much time running around seeing the sights that you need another holiday when you get home. Well, if you want to avoid that and you’re looking for a holiday that combines overseas travel, fun and relaxation, try a cruise. I’ve been on three in the past four years so I can say with authority that cruising offers the best of both worlds and is great value for money. But for those trying cruising for the first time, selecting the right company is vital. If you’re young and like to party, a P&O cruise is for you. Carnival Cruise Line is family-friendly, with many of its ships featuring water slides for little kids . . . and big kids. Princess Cruises caters for a much older (think 60-plus) crowd. It can be lacking in nightlife but is great for on-board activities. Another thing to consider is your cabin choice. The cheapest fares can be found for interior cabins, which can accommodate between two and four people but have no natural light. Ocean-view rooms include a window. The next step up is a balcony room, and for the ultimate in luxury, a mini-suite or suite is the way to go. I recently tried a 12-night cruise around Fiji and New Caledonia on Dawn Princess, one of the fleet of Princess ships. It left from Sydney’s White Bay and covered two New Caledonian ports, Noumea and Isle of Pines, and three Fijian stops: Dravuni Island, Port Denarau and Suva. With 12 nights and five ports, there are a lot of “sea days”, giving you plenty of time
to enjoy onboard life. The Dawn Princess has a spa, gym, art gallery, sports court, duty-free boutiques, theatre, show lounge, outdoor screen for late-night movies, a casino, nightclub and bars galore. My personal favourite was the Sanctuary, an adults-only area, and a small splash pool

TRAVEL
world of luxury
Cruising in the Pacific is a world of relaxing, excellent and sometimes exotic eating, and visiting some of the region’s beautiful islands. (Charlene Macaulay)
where you are waited on hand and foot by the attentive crew. Dining options are numerous – from the buffet-style Horizon Court to pizza restaurant La Scala Pizzeria, the balcony grill and the formal Florentine and Venetian dining rooms. There’s also an ice-cream bar, patisserie,
afternoon tea and 24-hour room service. One of the best parts of cruising? Everything is done for you. A cabin steward is assigned to your room from your first day and, apart from keeping your room clean and tidy, is always the best person to ask for advice or tips. And every evening, your steward will leave
a copy of the following day’s events in your room. Activities include everything from Zumba classes to bingo, trivia quizzes, dance classes, table tennis tournaments, martini demonstrations and a nightly array of shows, dances and comedians. Or if you just want to relax, there are sunlounges galore to pop your feet on. On land, there is just as much (or little) to do. Trying to do each port justice is hard, but here are my top tips for the islands: • For snorkelling, you can’t go past Dravuni Island. It’s surrounded by the Great Astrolabe Reef, the world’s fourth-largest barrier reef and teeming with a vast array of brightly
coloured fish. Isle of Pines is also an excellent option for keen snorkellers. • To walk off some of that excellent food, hike Dravuni Island’s highest peak, where you’ll be rewarded with great views of the surrounding islands. You’ll need sturdy shoes for this one; thongs won’t cut it. • Port Denarau is full or resorts, restaurants and shops. For something different, head to the Sleeping Giant mountain where, for $65 per person, you can try out ziplining. • Try an off-shore excursion to really experience Suva and Noumea. You can cover most of both cities on foot in an hour, but fire-walking, traditional villages and aquariums await those willing to travel farther out.

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir discovers a new dining gem in Hoppers Crossing Consider The Sauce has been aware for quite a while of the cool coffee spot that’s Corinthians in Hoppers Crossing without ever developing a pressing desire to visit. But a recent journey to Hoppers to pick up Bennie found me dropping in for a takeaway coffee and being impressed by the lovely vibe. Two absolutely amazing gluten-free choc cookies – one for myself out of curiosity, one for Bennie on the theory that “he’s going to love the living hell out of this” – did the rest of putting a visit for something more substantial rather higher on the CTS agenda. So it is that I visit with a pal – the one responsible for the fine new-on-the-scene blog, Not My Bread And Butter. It’s a nice, cosy room and is obviously quite the coffee spot to be during this midweek lunch hour. Most of the tables and seats at the big communal table at the front are occupied. OK, it’s not like this part of the west is overly blessed with such options, but it’s still a credit to the Corinthians crew that they nevertheless aim for high standards in food, service and coffee. The staff are on the ball and, all in all, it’s a very pleasant lunch spot. Both our meals are fine, if hardly representative of the menu; there’s salads, for instance, that will have to wait for another time. And there are, of course, many different kinds of brekkies on offer.
CORINTHIANS Address: 37 Old Geelong Road, Hoppers Crossing Phone: 8742 4009 My mac ’n’ cheese ($19) is a humble yet garlicky dish. But I like it a lot – it’s filling, hearty, bigger than it appears and, thankfully, more moist than some of the dry and crumbly versions I’ve had since this dish became a fad. The rocket and radish salad on the side is very fresh and dressed just right. My friend enjoys her 24-hour beans – don’t they look special? – with two rotund poached eggs and gluten-free toast ($20). She opines that the gluten-free bread is fabulous – thick and country-style, a very good imitation of the real thing Unfortunately, there is no evidence of world-beating choc cookies today so we more than make do with a shared slice of carrot cake ($5). I’m no big fan of carrot cake but find this one to be nice indeed, very moist and tasty. My cafe latte ($3.50) is excellent.

In a quiet spot in Maidstone, this property would be ideal for first-home buyers, investors or developers with the vision to renovate or extend on the great bones of this family house. Featuring high ceilings, polished floorboards and plenty of windows, the benchmark has been set in terms of style. Rooms are large, and there is plenty of scope to add more (subject to council approval). The kitchen could do with a change of decor but is equally fine to keep using for years yet. From the kitchen there is access to a small porch which already has paving laid – add a covered pergola and you’ve got a great alfresco area out back – and that leaves plenty of room for most garden adventures. There is also a brick garage and workshop out here. The property is close to Highpoint shopping centre, public transport and schools.

TALKING APPS
Blake James uncovers some useful apps
Evernote
1Password
Publisher: Evernote Available: App Store, iPhone, iPad, Android
Publisher: AgileBits Inc. Available: App Store, Android, Apple watch
Evernote is an extremely handy app that allows the user to organise various notes, reminders, lists, photos and messages. But perhaps one of its best uses is its prebuilt camera application that can take pictures of receipts, business cards or bank statements and convert them into documents such as PDF files that look as if they have been scanned professionally rather than just taken as a picture. In the notes section, a window appears with all the basic tools you would expect from a text editor on a phone. Voice, images and text can all be combined into your note document. It also allows you to highlight key information and format the text with alignments. Evernote has achieved a really clean interface. The “reminder” tool is handy, while creating to-do lists has never been easier. Overall, I recommend this app as a must-have for any organisation or individual needing professional note-taking services.
iPhone,
iPad,
Ever had trouble remembering all your passwords and account information? The 1Password application can help give you peace of mind by storing all your sensitive data in one place under one secure password. Most of us have multiple passwords, account information and sensitive data that we need to access quickly and often. This app stores all that information in a single, secure location. Once you initialise your master password, you unlock the vault to store your info in a range of categories, such as credit card, identity and login details. The login details category includes pre-sets from many different apps and websites. 1Password also has a secure browser that keeps your history locked, and a settings tab that lets you change your password, organise your vault, sync with iCloud or upgrade to the pro version, which costs $6.49.
Scanbot Document Scanner
Post-it® Plus
Scanbot is designed to take pictures of documents such as invoices, tax records or receipts and store them in a PDF file format. doo GmbH has created a useful application that does what’s intended and required, but I found it doesn’t measure up to the quality of similar applications available. For example, Evernote has created an app that scans documents much better – and offers more. Scanbot’s image quality can be quite poor sometimes and the document looks like it’s been copied in a rush. What Scanbot has going for it is its ability to send to multiple platforms, including Dropbox and the widely popular Google Drive. Scanbot has some premium features, too. It costs $6.49 for the pro edition and includes features such as adding signatures, comments and protection to your documents. Overall, there are better apps at the App Store that scan sharper documents and include more features for less.
3m Company has created an inventive application for your smartphone that allows you to organise your sticky notes in a very interesting way. Users take a picture of a sticky note on a wall or desk and the application crops the sticky note and puts it on a transparent background where the user can then rearrange and edit as required. This is a particularly useful app because it makes the process of moving and editing notes far more simple and pain-free. If you mess up editing a note, you can simply discard the changes and try again. The app automatically organises the sticky notes into categories and groups which the user can change later. Drawing and text additions can be made to sticky notes after the images have been cropped and categorised. Overall, a nifty app recommended for people who use sticky notes a lot and for people who want to be more organised.

Find it in the
SPORT MVP? I’d rather win the flag, says Sarah Mollison was scathing about Lacrosse Victoria’s decision to combine the state league clubs with A-grade clubs in the first half of the season, leading to lopsided scores and lack of genuine competition for her team until later in the season when the state league teams split. “It definitely would’ve played a part in us not being successful on grand final day, but Newport had a bit of interruption as well so you can’t use that as an excuse,” she said. Mollison, 28, has enjoyed a stellar lacrosse career and is keen to share her knowledge of the sport to the next generation. She is starting a lacrosse camp for talented youngsters this month and has coached the under-age teams at her club for years. Taking the under-18s to this season’s premiership was the silver lining to Mollison’s grand final day. “We lost, but my juniors won so it was bittersweet,” she said. “I was happy, I was sad.” Lance Jenkinson
Bulldogs off to a flyer
■ Brian
Lake may not end up being remembered as one of the greats of the game, but he certainly deserves to be acknowledged as a great player. There is probably no backman in the modern game who reads the ball better through the air. He’s the master and he showed it again in the AFL grand final, taking mark after mark for Hawthorn – 11 for the day. It’s uncommon for a defender to win awards these days yet Lake won the Charles Sutton Medal at the Bulldogs in 2007 and a Norm Smith Medal in 2013. He has three premiership medals yet his future is in doubt as I write this. He told me earlier in the year that when his AFL days were over he would have a kick in the WRFL for his local club, Caroline Springs, where his kids play. That may happen in 2016 but I hope not. As Brian knows, you are a long time retired and this feels too soon.

CYMS’ third grand final eve luncheon was the best of them all. Former boxing great Johnny Famechon was mesmerising. Johnny’s life took a dramatic turn when he was struck by a car in 1991 while jogging in Sydney. While still affected mentally and physically, he’s alive – which he says is much more appealing than the alternative. In front of more than 200 people, he read his story to a spellbound audience, with his devoted wife, Glenys, turning the pages. Simon Beasley and Dane Swan, the other speakers, were funny and enlightening.
By Lance Jenkinson A new season has brought a new dawn for Footscray Edgewater in Victorian Premier Cricket. The bitterness of last summer’s finals miss has been replaced with renewed optimism after the Bulldogs started a fresh campaign on Friday with a five-wicket win over Melbourne University in a one-day match at Merv Hughes Oval. The Bulldogs had to do it without captain Dean Russ, import Dan Hodgson and all-rounder Guy Walker, all unavailable. “It was a potential banana skin for us,” Bulldogs coach Steve Chapman told Star Weekly. “We had a few lads missing. The overseas player isn’t here yet, Dean Russ was at a wedding and Guy Walker is still unavailable. “So with three senior first-team players out, it was an outstanding result.” The Bulldogs have spruiked the depth in their ranks this season and this was a great chance for them to showcase it. “When we’re at full strength, we’ll have 16 or 17 first-team players to choose from and, hopefully, that will reflect in the seconds’ results,” Chapman said. Matthew Gudde took his chance, putting his name up in lights with a blistering 72 after the Bulldogs struggled to 4-32 chasing a modest 181 for victory. Travis Dean was the rock of the innings, batting through the 46.1 overs to make 76 not out, but you would expect no less from a player hoping to stake his claim for a spot in the Victorian Bushrangers team this season. When the innings needed a kickalong, it was Gudde who delivered in spectacular fashion in only his second first XI match. Dropped only three balls into his innings, Gudde rode his luck, making the most of his lifeline to produce a confident innings that included a crowd-pleasing four sixes, one of which sailed onto Farnsworth Avenue. “The most important part of his innings was his first 20 balls,” Chapman said. “If he’d succumbed in that time, we could’ve been knocked over, but it just sort of calmed the game down a bit and allowed Travis Dean to carry on. He not only settled the ship but took the game on; he was quite destructive.” Earlier, the Bulldogs restricts Uni to a manageable 3.67 runs per over as opening bowler Lucas Dredge (3-23) and spinner Michael Kelly (0-23) tightened the screws with the ball. The Bulldogs have made a flying start but

■I
am sure many people were surprised when Luke Beveridge was named AFL coaches’ Coach of the Year last week. “Bevo” has made an enormous impression in his first year at the Bulldogs. Is he a better coach than Alastair Clarkson, who now has four AFL premierships? The simple answer is no, not yet. Many people forget Alastair’s first senior coaching job was with Werribee in 2000.
■ Deer
Park has signed Brendon Fevola to play in the WRFL next year. I don’t know for how many games or for how much, and it’s none of my business. He will bring publicity to the competition, but will his inclusion in a side that won the 2015 grand final by a record 136 points be a good thing? Deer Park is entitled to do whatever it sees fit to defend its title and become the first club to win four WRFL flags in a row. I have no problem with that despite what many think. We will all see if it’s a good thing or not. Kevin Hillier

League MVP Sarah Mollison in action for Footscray on grand final day. (Damian Visentini).
Sarah Mollison is the undisputed best player in Lacrosse Victoria women’s state league. The Footscray captain was a runaway winner at the league’s best-and-fairest count, finishing seven votes clear of Newport premiership stars Marlee Paton and Rachel Kirchheimer. But Mollison would trade places with Paton and Kirchheimer in a heartbeat. The midfielder insists the MVP award is no substitute for a premiership . . . it doesn’t replace the hollow feeling left by close grand final losses two years in a row. “Winning a grand final would’ve been nicer,” Mollison told Star Weekly. “It was absolutely shattering to lose the grand final.” She concedes her side was beaten by the better team on the day but believes Footscray’s preparation was badly interrupted. A number of players were preoccupied with national representation at the under-19 World Cup and Rebecca Lane, one of the Bulldogs’ top players, missed the finals after accepting a college scholarship in the US.

By Liam Twomey Nicola Hancock is preparing for arguably the biggest summer in her young career. Touted as one of Australian cricket’s most exciting prospects, Hancock has a jam-packed schedule over coming months as she juggles multiple representative duties. Initially, she will focus on representing state side Victorian Spirit in the Women’s National Cricket League. From there, the 19-year-old will be called on to display her rapid speed with the ball and brute strength with the bat in the first season of the women’s Big Bash League. Hancock was offered a contract by Melbourne Renegades earlier this year and will join the likes of Molly Strano and Cassie Brock in the representative outfit. It was no surprise the Williamstown resident was one of the first players snapped up for the inaugural women’s Big Bash season. As an opening bowler and middle-order batter, Hancock has the ability to blow opposition sides away. “My goal is to be as lethal with the bat as I am with the ball,” she says. “In Twenty-20 cricket, pace bowling helps me a lot. “But being able to hit those boundary balls, that’s something not all women are able to do. It’s a big advantage and I can’t wait to get into it.” Hancock has the perfect grounding for her busy summer having spent most of the off-season travelling with the Australian women’s cricket team as part of the national Shooting Stars development squad. Her first stop was a training camp and

tour of Sri Lanka where she played against the national women’s team before flying to Dubai to play the English academy side. As part of her training, Hancock has worked closely with Australian women’s cricket legend Cathryn Fitzpatrick. A former national coach, Fitzpatrick now trains members of the Shooting Stars squad. “I feel like Cathryn is someone I really look up to,” Hancock says. “She understands her game so much and can identify little things in my game that I need to improve. “I thought I was ready for a big summer last year, but I feel like a completely different player this year. “Mentally and physically, I know my game more. I know my teammates’ games and what level I need to reach.” For her outstanding sporting achievements Hancock has been named as a monthly nominee for the Don Deeble Rising Star award. The award is run by the Sunshine Western Region Sports Club in conjunction with Star Weekly. Hancock will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes to assist her towards her sporting goals. The Don Deeble Rising Star award recognises young athletes in the western suburbs who have achieved outstanding results at a state and national level.

Medal joy for Seagull skipper W i l l i a m s t o w n ’s premiership captain, Ben Jolley (pictured), has won a record-equalling fourth Gerry Callahan Medal. The tough-as-nails onballer polled 87 votes in the VFL club’s best and fairest to finish clear of swingman Sam Dunell (79) and midfielder Mitch Banner (75). Jolley made it back-to-back best-and-fairest’s for a second time in his career, having achieved that feat in the 2011 and ’12 seasons. He will go down as one of the Seagulls’ greats and draws level with hall of fame member Kim Kershaw’s record mark of four Callahan Medals. This medal, won for a season in which he guided the Seagulls to a long-awaited flag, will undoubtedly be Jolley’s most treasured. He averaged 27 possessions a game this season with a high mark of 38 in the round-19 loss to Werribee and kept up his consistency in the finals, averaging 26 touches a game including 24 in the Seagulls’ grand final win over Box Hill. Jake Greiser claimed the development league best-and-fairest from premiership teammates Simon Deery and Tyler Curtis. Life memberships were awarded to Max Atkin, Jami Moran and Cameron Lockwood.

Who won what in junior footy . . . With senior grand finals run and won, and awards handed out, it’s time to salute the next generation of footballers in the Western Region Football League with Lance Jenkinson’s annual under-age grand final wrap . . . U18A Spotswood 20.14 (134) d Deer Park 2.3 (15) Spotswood reaffirmed its status as the top under-18 side in the league with a 119-point thrashing of Deer Park in the grand final at Avalon Airport Oval. The Woodsmen were superbly led by Charles Bettiol, who booted seven goals in a best-on ground performance. The Woodsmen lost only two games all season, while Deer Park came from fourth to feature on the biggest day. U18B Newport Power 9.13 (67) d Werribee Districts 10.6 (66) Newport Power came from 13 points down at half-time to upset minor premiers Werribee Districts by a point in a thriller at Avalon Airport Oval. The Power’s second-half surge was led by Ahmed Zahraman, named best for his side, and Chris Sotiropoulos, who kicked four goals. Werribee lost only three games all season, all against the Power, including two finals. U16A St Bernard’s 10.20 (80) d Spotswood 9.7 (61) St Bernard’s provided one of the shocks of the junior finals with a 19-point win over Spotswood in the decider at Wootten Road Reserve. The Woodsmen had not lost a game, but the Snowdogs took little notice of the form guide and led from start to finish. Thomas Sullivan capped a best-afield display for the Snowdogs with two goals. U16B Yarraville-Seddon 7.13 (55) d Altona Juniors 8.6 (54) Yarraville-Seddon, inspired by best-on-ground Michael Tsaloukis and four goals from Owen King, held on for dear life to edge Altona Juniors by a point in the grand final at Hogans Road Reserve. The wayward-kicking Eagles managed only four behinds in the last quarter, but their work in the lead-up proved enough to swoop on the premiership. The Eagles were unbeaten in the home-and-away rounds, but had to go the long way through the finals after Altona upset them in the qualifier. U16C Sanctuary Lakes 15.14 (104) d Point Cook 15.11 (101) Sanctuary Lakes prevailed by three points over local rivals Point Cook in an old fashioned shoot-out grand final at Hogans Road Reserve. Led by Leo Eliepa, the fast-finishing Sharks overturned a 17-point three-quarter time deficit to win in a thriller that had the sides sharing 30 goals. The Sharks and Point Cook were the leading sides all year, both having 13-1 records over the season, and the final game reflected how little there was to separate them. U16D Albanvale 10.16 (76) d Wyndhamvale 9.5 (59) Albanvale was the clear pre-game favourite and lived up to the hype, leading from start to finish to beat Wyndhamvale by a comfortable 17 points in the big dance at Hogans Road Reserve. The Cobras were hissing out of the blocks, taking a 25-point lead into quarter-time with four-goal star Jason Johns dominant. It was a fitting way for the Cobras to cap off a season in which they took out the minor premiership. U14A Sanctuary Lakes 8.12 (60) d Altona Juniors 4.7 (31) Sanctuary Lakes were always going to be hard to stop, having won all but one game over the season and having an out-of-this-world percentage of 617.04 per cent. The Sharks didn’t suffer stage fright either, cruising to a
Powerhouse Spotswood made it back-to-back flags in under-18 division 1. (Kristian Scott)
29-point win over Altona Juniors in the grand final at Hogans Road Reserve on the back of a starring role from Cassius White and three goals to Michael Szulc. U14B Werribee Centrals 9.9 (63) d Yarraville-Seddon 5.14 (44) It was a nip-and-tuck affair for three quarters, but Werribee Centrals ran out the grand final better, kicking four goals to one in the last term to up-end minor premiers Yarraville-Seddon by 19 points at Hogans Road Reserve. Harrison White put the icing on the cake of a best-on-ground showing with a goal, while Connor Linehan-Cunningham snared three of his own. The Centurions were second past the post in the home-and-away rounds but shone when it mattered most on the biggest day of the season. U14C Williamstown Juniors 12.10 (80) d Point Cook 7.8 (50) Williamstown Juniors were by far the best team over the season, finishing two games and a significant amount of percentage clear on top of the ladder. The Seagulls reinforced their superiority in the grand final with a 32-point victory over Point Cook at Wootten Road Reserve on a day Rhys Patterson claimed best-on-ground honours and Harry Sposato and Max Hatzoglou each kicked three goals. U13A Williamstown Juniors 11.14 (80) d St Bernard’s 4.6 (30) Williamstown Juniors bossed the home-andaway rounds, finishing a massive three games clear on top of the ladder. The Seagulls also bossed the second half of the grand final, running out 50-point winners over St Bernard’s at Wootten Road Reserve. With scores level at half-time, the Seagulls piled on nine goals to one in the second half after strong performances from best-on-ground Ethan Mantas and three-goal forward Tane Roordink.
U13B Sunshine Heights 9.6 (60) d Point Cook 3.6 (24) Sunshine Heights had been the dominant side all season but suffered a shock defeat to Point Cook in week one of the finals. After taking the long route through the finals, the Heights got their shot at redemption in the decider against the Bulldogs and took full advantage to win by 36 points at Wootten Road Reserve. Bol Atem was a stand-out for the Heights, while Ashley Lay’s four goals were critical. U13C Sunshine Kangaroos 15.14 (104) d PEGS 7.14 (56) Sunshine Kangaroos were minor premiers for a reason and third-placed PEGS were powerless to stop them from getting their hands on the premiership. Led by five goals from Atali Patrice and three to Matthew Curran, the Kangaroos were never seriously threatened as they marched to a 40-point half-time lead and never looked back in the grand final at Hogans Road Reserve. U12A Williamstown Juniors 12.13 (85) d Caroline Springs 2.1 (13) This Williamstown Juniors were probably the most dominant of any junior side in the WRFL in 2015. The undefeated Seagulls finished two games clear on top of the ladder with a whopping 753.29 per cent. The Gulls completed their mission with a 72-point trouncing of Caroline Springs in the grand final at Hogans Road Reserve on the back of a stunning ninegoal haul to Zachary Provest. U12B Yarraville-Seddon 9.8 (62) d Altona Juniors 3.7 (25) Yarraville-Seddon Eagles cruised to the premiership in an undefeated season. The Eagles put Altona Juniors to the sword by 37 points in a one-sided grand final at Hogans Road Reserve. Jacob Purches was an ever-present for the Eagles, claiming best-afield honours and capping off his game with two goals.
U12C Williamstown Juniors 5.4 (34) d Spotswood 4.7 (31) Williamstown Juniors emerged victorious over Spotswood by three points in a strange grand final at Hogans Road Reserve. The Seagulls held the Woodsmen goalless in quarters one, two and four, but the Woodsmen produce a four-goal third term to get to within two points at three-quarter time. With the influence of Kristian Vassallo and Joshua Hunt-Stapleton, the Gulls held on in a tense last quarter. U11A St Bernard’s 8.5 (53) d Williamstown Juniors 2.2 (14) In a grand final that pitted the two best sides in the division, it was St Bernard’s who held their nerve on the big stage to beat minor premiers Williamstown Juniors in a surprisingly easy fashion by 39 points at Wootten Road Reserve. The Snowdogs were held scoreless in the opening term but piled on eight goals to one in the last three quarters, with Cooper Colson and Kristian Modica producing starring roles. U11B Hoppers Crossing 8.14 (62) d Werribee Centrals 3.0 (18) Hoppers Crossing was the powerhouse of the division, taking out the premiership without a blemish over the course of the season. The Warriors took care of local rivals Werribee Centrals by 44 points in a home grand final at Hogans Road Reserve. Lukmain Haddara snared three goals and Isaac Cohen and Levi Boys were superb for the Warriors. U11C Sunshine Heights 10.11 (71) d Manor Lakes 4.5 (29) Sunshine Heights caused one of the biggest shocks of the WRFL junior finals, downing previously unbeaten minor premier Manor Lakes by 42 points in the grand final at Hogans Road Reserve. The Heights, who finished third in the regular season, gained the upper hand with a six-goal second term.
