Vive les differences Cultural Diversity Week is an invitation to share and appreciate the many diverse strands that make up our communities. Honouring the week, which runs until March 22, Melton council will host Harmony Day celebrations at the Caroline Springs Civic Centre on Saturday to promote awareness, acceptance and appreciation of cultural diversity. The celebration will showcase food, performances, music and activities from around the world. Melton mayor Sophie Ramsey is inviting everyone to join the festivities. “Harmony Day promotes inclusiveness, respect and a sense of belonging for everyone,” Cr Ramsey said. “With 27.8 per cent of our residents born overseas, celebrations such as this give us the chance to learn about the different customs and cultural traditions that make up our vibrant and diverse community.” The celebrations will be from 10am-1pm on Saturday, March 21, at the Caroline Springs Civic Centre, 193 Caroline Springs Boulevard, Caroline Springs. Also featured during Cultural Diversity Week will be Filipino, Chinese and Indonesian cultural performances, a bilingual Italian story time, a screening of the Indian film The Lunchbox, and Italian cooking demonstrations.

End of line for bus stops Melton councillor Nola Dunn’s tireless campaign to relocate two dangerous bus stops on the Western Highway at Rockbank has succeeded. Public Transport Victoria (PTV) has confirmed the bus stops, on the in-bound lanes of the highway in Rockbank, will be removed and placed within the town centre. The Watts ward councillor has been advocating removal of the bus stops, which are on the 456 route, since 2012.

“Everyone I speak to about this has seen someone who’s walked across the highway to get on a bus,” Cr Dunn said. “How are these people expected to cross the road? I see people trying to dodge cars on the highway.” The speed limit on the in-bound lanes of the highway is 100km/h, while on the out-bound lanes it’s 90km/h. Cr Dunn said she was afraid PTV was going to “sit back” and wait for the area to be developed then install an overpass instead of removing the bus stops. “With the new precinct structure plans

when it realised a pedestrian was crossing the road to get to the bus stop … it’s so dangerous.” A PTV spokesman said it had identified that the bus stops “needed to be evaluated for the safety and accessibility of the public”. “Roadworks [on the highway] are nearly complete, which will allow PTV contractors to begin installation of the new bus stops,” the spokesman said. PTV did not confirm when the bus stops would be removed and placed in the town centre, but Cr Dunn said she believed it would be by June or July.

coming on board, there’s going to be a huge population increase in Rockbank, so my fear was more people would be using the bus stops,” she said. A driver who often uses the highway said she was outraged by how long it took PTV to realise the locations of the bus stops were “an accident waiting to happen”. “I can’t believe these bus stops were ever erected in the first place. A highway is no place for bus stops and pedestrians,” said the driver, who requested their name not be used. “Just the other day, a car in front of me suddenly braked

TAYLAH BILLS AND JORDAN HORNSEY WITH ABBY

Abby proves the power of adoption When Bacchus Marsh couple Taylah Bills and Jordan Hornsey decided to get a new pet, they knew adoption was how they wanted to do it. “We spent a lot of time going to all the different pounds near and far,” Ms Bills said. “There was no other option; adoption was always going to be the way to go. Every pound we went into broke our hearts and we wanted to re-home all of them.” Ms Bills and Mr Hornsey ended up adopting three-legged bull terrier-cattle dog cross Abby from the Moorabool Shire animal pound.

Last week the state government also announced the launch of a 2015 Community Satisfaction Survey, a telephone survey also seeking the opinion of ratepayers on their local council. About 400 residents from 69 participating councils, including Melton and Moorabool, will take part in the survey, which will also seek opinion on councils’ community consultation, advocacy and customer service, and overall performance. Interviews for Melton and Moorabool have already been conducted with the results to be published in the statewide Local Government Services Report.

One hundred speeding drivers were caught in Melton during the Labour Day long weekend police blitz. Three drivers were nabbed for using phones, five were caught not wearing seatbelts and there were two drink-driving offences. Disqualified and unlicensed drivers were also among the offenders, while two cars were impounded and eight unregistered cars were detected. Police across the state dealt with 9311 traffic offences during the four-day Operation ARID. Senior Constable Holly Gibson, of the Melton highway patrol, said the results were disappointing. “Despite the publicity and increased police patrols, we’re still seeing people drink-driving and committing other traffic offences,” she said. Victoria Police were also devastated by eight deaths in six crashes on the state’s roads during the long weekend. Superintendent David Griffin said he wanted all Victorians to think about the people behind the statistics the next time they got on the road. “All of these people had families, friends and colleagues,” he said. “It’s easy to listen to the news and say that’s horrible and then go back to our own lives thinking it will never happen to me or to someone I care about. “No one has the right to drive. It’s a privilege that comes with a great level of responsibility. If you can’t live up to that responsibility the best thing is that flashing lights appear in your rear view mirror before tragedy strikes.”

Abby was impounded just after Christmas when attempts to find her owners were unsuccessful. “When we saw Abby I burst into tears,” Ms Bills said. “She was very neglected yet was so loving and had such a beautiful nature. We knew instantly she was the one.” Abby has since been desexed, treated for skin issues and for arthritis in her hind legs, and is settling in perfectly at her new home. “As soon as we brought her home she’d follow us everywhere, always with a smile on her face,”

But survey respondents identified traffic management, public transport, safety, policing and crime, and council rates as areas that could be improved. “We strive to perform at the highest possible level and are always looking towards continuous improvement in service and infrastructure delivery to meet the needs of our community,” Mr Heaney said.

Health boss warns on welfare By Sumeyya Ilanbey A proposed streamlining of the welfare system might disadvantage the nation’s most vulnerable and make them sicker and more isolated, according to a community health service provider. Western suburbs-based provider cohealth raised the concerns following last month’s release of the final McClure report, which recommends simplifying the nation’s $150 billion welfare system. The federal government is considering the report, which suggests cutting down 20 income support payments to just five – a tiered working-

age payment, supported living pension, child and youth payment, carer payment and the age pension. It also recommends 55 supplementary payments be reduced to four: housing, child and family, education, and carer and disability. Cohealth chief executive Lyn Morgain welcomed the report’s goals but said the reforms, which linked payment tiers with capacity to work, overlooked “circumstantial factors” such as access to transport and childcare or workplace discrimination. “The tightly defined criteria for the proposed payment levels do not adequately account for these important factors,” Ms Morgain said.

“And the risk is that vulnerable people in need of support will fail to meet the criteria.” Ms Morgain said high unemployment in Melton (9 per cent) and Brimbank (8.9 per cent) meant more people were vulnerable to welfare reforms. “Melton has the highest rate of people in Victoria with high to very high levels of psychological stress – anxiety, depression and worry – but the lowest availability of GP clinics. “Unemployment rates are also high, meaning people are likely to be relying on welfare to support them through difficult times.” According to the latest Population Health Data report by HealthWest, 6.3 per cent of

Brimbank and 4.6 per cent of Melton residents are on a disability support pension, while 7.3 per cent of Brimbank and 4.5 per cent of Melton residents were NewStart recipients at the end of June, 2012. Ms Morgain urged the federal government to bolster educational, training and employment services for everyone. “If we’re serious about improving employment and health outcomes for people, we need to reform the educational, training and employment pathways,” she said. Social Services Minister Scott Morrison said it was important to redesign the welfare system, which was “costly, confusing and inequitable”.

Fireys fire off invitation because a lot of our members are working in Melbourne.” Mr Lawton said it was important to have people on board who could respond to incidents in Toolern Vale. And with more local volunteers, better response times could be achieved. Volunteers will be provided with the necessary training and skills. An information night will be held on Monday, March 23, at which Mr Lawton says those interested will learn about what’s involved in becoming a volunteer or volunteer firefighter. “They can make a decision from there whether they want to put their hand up or not,” he said. The information night is at 203 Creamery Road, Toolern Vale, from 7.30-8.30. To register, phone 0405 186 344. Yasemin Talat

Toolern Vale CFA has embarked on a recruitment drive. Captain Danny Lawton says more volunteer firefighters are needed to support the community and there’s also a need to fill non-firefighting roles ranging from community education and administration to support at incident control centres. The Toolern Vale fire brigade has about 35 volunteer members, including Melton and Kurunjang residents. But the brigade could do with more, and Mr Lawton said males and females 17 and older were welcome to join up. “We’d like to increase the number of firefighters we have, particularly with people who are home during the day,” Mr Lawton said. “We struggle at the moment with [finding] members who are available during the day,

Kids’ drop-off a risky business Police, school principals and Melton council are concerned by the growing number of drivers who are flouting the law around schools. Leading Senior Constable Shane Roberts, of the Melton highway patrol, said that although the issue was widespread, Hillside, Caroline Springs and Brookside were some of the worst problem areas. “Schools have been notified that we’ll be targeting schools during pick-up and drop-off,” Leading Senior Constable Roberts said. “[It’s important to follow the law] because of the nature of kids around schools – especially at a primary level – because you never trust what the kids are going to do.” Leading Senior Constable Roberts urged parents to drive at 40km/h, keep an eye out for parking signs and not park in no-standing zones. He said many parents were double-parking or parking too close to the crossing supervisor, which posed several risks. He advised parents to drop off and pick up their children in a timely manner as most were flouting the law because of running late. Leading Senior Constable Roberts also urged parents to “walk the 100 metres to the school gate” instead of endangering children’s and drivers’ lives by parking in illegal areas.

Diggers Rest’s fallen World War I soldiers will be commemorated with a new memorial. The joint project of the Diggers Rest Lions Club and primary school will feature a two-metre-high, four-sided cenotaph and “teaching garden”. Melton council gave approval at last week’s council meeting for the memorial to be built at Diggers Rest Recreation Reserve. Lions club secretary Bob Cassar said they were thrilled by the council’s support and hoped to start the project soon with the aim of unveiling it on July 29. “Anzac Day is gaining popularity,” Mr Cassar said. “A lot more people are interested in it now and, of course, Diggers Rest has always missed out. The closest [memorials] are in Sunbury and Melton.” The project’s cost of about $20,000 is being funded by the federal government, an ANZAC centenary grant, the St Ives estate development and Lions Club of Diggers Rest. Diggers Rest Primary School principal Rachelle Hedger said the teaching garden would feature a lone pine, plaques, indigenous plants and possibly student artwork. “Diggers Rest has such a rich history and cultural background [so] it’s important we maintain and celebrate the past,” Ms Hedger said. “We currently attend Anzac Day services in Sunbury so it will be fantastic for the kids to have a memorial nearby.”

Kids joyfully egged on By Yasemin Talat A day in the park celebrating Easter and community spirit is the way it ought to be, according to Bacchus Marsh Egg Hunt organisers. The annual hunt is returning for its third year to help bring the community together in a fun, outdoor setting. This year the event will help raise vital funds and awareness for the Epilepsy Foundation Victoria. Egg hunt founder and co-organiser Rae Allan said that as a child she enjoyed egg-and-spoon races, potato sack races and egg hunts at her Sunday school picnics for Easter, and she wanted to bring that joy back. Ms Allan said it was a day for children to be free from technology and enjoy playing outdoors. “The goal is to get people outside on Good Friday, out from behind the TV, and get kids running around,” she said. Each year the organisers welcome hundreds of families from Bacchus Marsh and beyond to enjoy a day of entertainment and activities, including market stalls, entertainers, traditional games and, of course, the egg hunt. This year’s charity recipient was chosen in honour of co-organiser Emma Dwyer’s four-year-old daughter Hannah, who was diagnosed with epilepsy when she was 18-months-old. Ms Dwyer says people know very little about epilepsy and the Epilepsy Foundation which makes the egg hunt all the more important. “It’s a real condition that people face every day – anybody can have it,” she said. Ms Dwyer hopes that by volunteering in the community she will be a role model for her daughter, who she describes as “a good

egg” with a “big heart”. She says Hannah is excited about joining her cousins in the hunt for chocolate eggs. “Even if we only raise a small amount of money and educate just one person, then I’ll be

happy,” Ms Dwyer said. For event information and tickets for the egg hunt, call Rae on 0425 729 948. Organisers hope to raise $10,000 for the Epilepsy Foundation.

Kindergarten site on market Melton council will sell the Wirrigirri kindergarten site in Caroline Springs. The council bought a portable building in 2002 for the site at 2 Darebin Place, Caroline Springs, to accommodate the growing number of three and four-year-olds in Caroline Springs and Burnside. But a report presented at last week’s council meeting recommended ending enrolments at Wirrigirri and “at the same time, dispose of the facility and the land via a sale process at the end of the 2015 kindergarten year”. The report states that the council always proposed for the sale of 2 Darebin Place and the ending of enrolments following completion of the Burnside Children’s and Community Centre, which is expected to be ready for the 2016 school year. Melton council community services general manager Maurie Heaney said the council had consulted with the current provider at Wirrigirri kindergarten, TRY Children’s Services, about relocating to the new Burnside centre next year. She said the new centre would “ provide an additional service over and above the capacity of Wirrigirri, featuring four kindergarten rooms compared with Wirrigirri’s one”. The centre is about two kilometres from 2 Darebin Place. The closest kindergarten to Wirrigirri – Brookside Pre-School – is 500 metres away. Sumeyya Ilanbey

Park it here, neighbours Good neighbours aren’t found only on Ramsey Street . . . Melton South residents are being invited to celebrate Neighbour Day at Kurrajong Crescent Reserve on Sunday, March 29. Linking Melton South, which is facilitated by Djerriwarrh Health Services, has organised Party in the Park, offering free arts, crafts and sports activities, hip-hop and drumming workshops, face-painting and an opportunity to bounce on the jumping castle. Djerriwarrh Health Services chief executive Bruce Marshall said social connections with neighbours could help prevent loneliness, isolation and depression. “Linking Melton South is organising Party in the Park to give people a chance to get together

and celebrate what’s great about Melton South and get to know their neighbours,” Mr Marshall said. “The event will also provide community members with ideas of how to better use the public spaces and parks in Melton South.” Community radio station 979fm will broadcast live at the reserve, while Western Water will provide visitors with free drinking water. The party runs from 11am-2pm on Sunday, March 29, at the Kurrajong Crescent Reserve, Station Road, Melton South. For more information, visit facebook.com/ linkingmeltonsouth. Sumeyya Ilanbey

If you suffer from any mental health issues and feel you could use support, it’s available at weekly sessions at the new Melton South Community Centre, 41 Exford Road. Session times have changed to Mondays from 12.30-2pm for women and Mondays at 7pm for men.

Price: $314,000

On about 561 square metres in Thoroughbred Park estate, this small but perfectly formed house is a ripper of a starter property, or even for a downsizer who wants all the modern comforts but minus the work entailed in maintaining a larger place. The addition of a great alfresco area and a carport adds considerable amenity, with either space able to be used as party spillover or wet-weather play space. And, inside, it’s beautifully presented and ready for new owners to pull up a pew.

Private sale

Entry is into a tiled hallway, to the left of which is a carpeted lounge room which provides adult retreat or entertainment space. The hall then ducks right to a laundry, separate toilet, bathroom and the three bedrooms. Two bedrooms have mirror-front wardrobes, while the main has walk-through twin robes with a two-way bathroom which echoes the decor found in the kitchen. The living hub of kitchen and meals zone is at the back, with the kitchen

sporting soft-chocolate laminate cabinetry, latte-toned benchtops, a dishwasher, underbench oven and gas cook-top. A split-system tames the climate in here, but there’s also ducted heating and cooling in support. The meals area opens to a full-width pergola above concrete. There’s space galore here and cafe blinds on three sides make it an all-weather option. As adults relax under the pergola, the kids can play in the backyard where there’s

a garden shed, a mulched area ready for playground equipment, a mix of lawn and river stones elsewhere, and tall yuccas along the fence. Mature palm trees line the side yard – everything is as neat as can be. The property also has an alarm system, exterior electric roller shutters at front and kitchen windows and a single garage with back roller door. It’s within a walk of a playground, footy oval and a milkbar. Carole Levy 13 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ MARCH 17, 2015

49 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ MARCH 17, 2015

TECH TALK MELTON.STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

Feel a little more secure By Rod Easdown It was 11pm and I got a text message saying my home security system was screaming. Had I agreed to pay a security company to monitor the alarm, it would have sent a guy around to check and he would have got back to me. But my experience is that this can take anywhere up to six hours and I had figured if the alarm called me and not them I’d react with more motivation. And it wouldn’t cost me a cent. In this case there was a problem. I was in Singapore. I managed to get a family member around there the next morning and was told it was a false alarm. All that stress for nothing. Wouldn’t it be nice if there was some way you could remotely check if an alarm activation is just another wrong’un? Turns out there is. Just not quite yet. Belkin unveiled the idea at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas and says it will be on the market in Australia in the second half of this year. It’s an addition to the brand’s WeMo range – products aimed at creating a house controlled entirely by a phone. WeMo started with lighting, now there’s security. It operates through your home Wi-Fi and you start with an alarm sensor. It looks like a smoke detector and is mounted near the little doover on the ceiling that creates all the noise when the alarm goes off. Depending on your security guy, this is variously called a shrieker, a squawker, a siren or, as some more delicate security companies describe it, a sounder.

The alarm sensor activates when it “hears” the shrieker, sending a message to your phone. Your alarm system might already do this; if not, the WeMo system saves you the expense of hooking the alarm into the phone line. Here’s the clever bit. WeMo security includes sensors for your doors and windows, so if you’re advised the alarm has activated it’s simple to check if any doors or windows have been breached. If not, false alarm. Unless the guy has come in through the roof, in which case he’ll trip a motion detector or the door sensor when he leaves. Here’s the interesting bit. The system also includes key fobs. These track whoever has them, so you know where the kids are. Or – if you put one on its collar – where the dog gets to. But the best idea is that it will also tell you where you left your keys. All you have to do is find your phone. The system includes pet-friendly motion detectors. Although prices have not been advised, the folk at Belkin predict you’ll be able to set up a house with three key fobs, a dozen door and window detectors and an alarm sensor for less than $1000.

SPORT Allen’s ton leads Lions to victory By Liam Twomey Melton is through to the Sub District cricket semi-finals after a hard-fought win against Altona at the weekend. The Lions were dismissed for 198 just before stumps on the first day at MacPherson Park on Saturday, the tally’s respectability largely due to a brilliant 120 by opener Mick Allen. It was his second century against Altona this year. When play resumed on Sunday, Altona took the slow and steady approach, moving to 0-28 from 20 overs. The run rate began picking up with star batsman Aaron Maynard at the crease. At 1-71 at tea, Altona looking a chance to reach its target. But the loss of a couple of wickets severely hampered the run chase as Melton began to get on top. The Lions eventually dismissed Altona for 168 to seal the win. Meanwhile, in other VSDCA finals, everything went to plan for top sides Roxburgh Park Broadmeadows and Plenty Valley, which each got through their finals matches. First-placed Roxburgh Park Broadmeadows was given a strong test before beating sixth-placed Ivanhoe. Batting first, the Falcons were bowled out for 194, with Simpson Obed top-scoring with his season-best 62. In reply, Ivanhoe gave the target a real shake before being bowled out 32 runs short for 162. Meanwhile, Plenty Valley recovered from a tough start with the bat to smash Yarraville. After slipping to 3-33, the Bats went on to make 207, thanks to a handy 54 from number nine Benjamin Dennett. In reply, Yarraville was all out for 45 to bring an end to its season. The weekend’s results give Altona a lifeline, as the A’s remain in finals as the highestplaced first-round loser. This week’s semi-finals will pit Roxburgh Park Broadmeadows against Altona and Plenty Valley against Melton.

Mick Allen smashed 120 for Melton against Altona. (Wayne Hawkins)

Youngsters step up for new-look Jets

Jaycob Hickey has the honour of captaining the Western Jets in 2015. (Damian Visentini)

More than a fresh lick of paint has been applied to Western Jets over the summer. The primary squad has undergone a total makeover and is largely unrecognisable to the finals side from the past season. The coaching group has evolved and so has the composition of the playing list after the TAC Cup introduced a new rule allowing for up to eight 19-year-olds per list in a competition traditionally for under-18 players. Jets coach Torin Baker told Star Weekly there would be a bit of the unknown early in the campaign as he takes a much younger squad into the new season. “We have a whole new group,” he said. “A lot of our top-agers have left, so we’re heavily bottom-age now. “Who knows what it [the season] might be? “The whole competition is up in the air because there are probably not as many strong Metro teams as there were last year. “It was a year when we knew Metro teams were going to dominate, whereas it’s going to be more open this year.” Baker is looking forward to starting a two-year cycle with a squad that is predominantly bottom age. Of the 45 players on the list, 27 are in their first season of the TAC Cup, caused by the graduation of the bulk of the last year’s side to the AFL, VFL or local leagues. “Our list has more bottom-agers than

top-agers, which is rare,” Baker said. “I’m looking forward to working with the bottom-age players as you get them for two years and there’s a chance to right the wrongs from the first year and get it right for the second year.” The only hindrance for the Jets in their finals aspirations is a lack of experience. With only two players – captain Jaycob Hickey and Daniel Foley – in Vic Metro’s squad, they will at least have most players available for the mid-season period when other teams see their best players set off for the national championships. The Jets will carry six 19-year-olds, including last year’s best and fairest, Brayden Monk, Mitch Norton, Lachie Knight, Liam Carter, Anthony Daw and Mitch Palma. The choice of Hickey as captain was a no-brainer. “He’s a super competitive, hard-at-it player, who is really respected by his peers for the way he goes about it,” Baker said. Hickey is a candidate to move into midfield after spending last season as a small defender. The Jets have lost experience across the board and are crying out for players to fill the voids. “It’s a new midfield, it’s a new forward line - it’s new all over the place,” Baker said. “It’s exciting to see who will step up.” Lance Jenkinson

Sport shorts Soccer

State league 1 soccer club North Sunshine pulled off a huge upset in the FFA Cup on Saturday, beating NPL side Sunshine George Cross. In a highly entertaining match, scores were tied at 6-6 after extra time. With nothing separating the Brimbank clubs, a penalty shoot-out was needed. That was almost a game in itself, with the teams going blow for blow until the scores were 8-8. The lower-ranked Eagles held their nerve for a 10-8 shoot-out win.

FFA Cup

St Albans Saints were knocked out of the FFA Cup on Saturday. The Saints went into this year’s event with a huge target on their backs after making it through to the latter stages of the cup last year before losing to Perth Glory. Their new campaign came to an early end with St Albans knocked out by Caulfield United on penalties.

Import fires for Thoroughbreds By Liam Twomey Melton import Ivan Harris scored 25 points to guide his side to an opening-round win against Mildura in Big V basketball. Harris had five rebounds and two steals in his Melton debut to help the Thoroughbreds secure their 79-72 division 1 victory. The 30-year-old comes to Melton extremely well credentialled, having previously been selected as an All American in high school basketball. After a four-year stint representing US college Ohio State, he went on to play in the NBA’s development league with Cleveland, Atlanta, Dallas and Oklahoma. This is the power forward’s second stint playing in Australia; he played for Ballarat in the SEALB in 2011. Prior to his Big V debut, Harris said he was looking forward to playing with Melton. “I am really excited to be coming back to play in Australia,” he said. “I’m very delighted to play with a good group of guys and a supportive organisation. We have what it takes to be strong contenders in division one.” Harris’s individual performance was strong on Saturday night, but first-year Melton coach Julie McCallum said it was the American’s impact on the team that impressed her the most. “The important thing is, because the other team is so worried about him it really opens up all our other good players,” she said. “Jeff Crowe, Matthew Jukes and all our

guys, they’re all able to make things happen.” It wasn’t all smooth sailing for Melton at the weekend, with the Thoroughbreds having to come back from 14 points down early in the third term. Melton showed its class by pegging the margin back and then out-scoring Mildura 22-19 in the final term. Crowe finished with 18 points, while Shane Moroney had 10. “It was a game of peaks and troughs,” McCallum said. “When we were good we were really good. We also had moments when we were pretty ugly. “We probably didn’t want the ball bad enough to start with. I think we lifted our intensity on defence. We came out and fought harder for it and we played better defence all round. Our whole game lifts when our defence is good.” Melton hosts Keilor this weekend. The Thunder goes into the match after a tough 74-64 loss to Shepparton. Elsewhere at the weekend, Geelong got the better of Sunbury, 94-90, and Casey was too good for Melbourne University, 71-64.

It’s good Knight for Phoenix By Liam Twomey Melton’s FFA Cup soccer campaign came to an end on Saturday night, with Phoenix bundled out of the national competition by NPL Melbourne Knights. But despite the 4-1 scoreline, Phoenix was far from outclassed on the big stage, showing no signs of nerves against an opponent that plays five leagues higher. Melton went into the half-time break just 1-0 down and was going toe to toe with its more highly fancied opponent. Phoenix coach Peter Schwellinger said there were plenty of positives from the match. “I was very happy with the performance and I think we achieved a lot,” he said. “I think the Knights were probably a little bit surprised. They had only one or two players missing from their squad. “We were playing a team five leagues higher which won the Dockerty Cup last year. We competed very well. It was 1-0 at half-time and it was only a couple of errors that cost us.” Defensive lapses by Phoenix in the second half allowed the Knights to get further on top as the lead ballooned to 4-0. But Melton refused to give in and finally scored in the closing stages. Schwellinger, who took over as Phoenix head coach only late last year, said he was rapt by how the players had embraced his style of play. “I’ve had a few different ideas and put

Easts rocket into final East Sunbury caused arguably the upset of the season in a Gisborne District Cricket Association B-grade semi-final at the weekend. Taking on an all-conquering Rupertswood that finished atop the ladder with an 18-point margin, fourth-placed East Sunbury smashed its way to victory. Batting first, Easts made 9-256 on the back of a stunning century by opener Liam Sherlock. In reply, Rupertswood had no answers, succumbing for a disappointing 145. East Sunbury coach Mark Hourigan was full of praise for his young side. “It’s been a long year, trying to get into the finals and having the faith in the younger kids,” he said. “It’s been a challenge at times, but they keep backing up week after week. “The week before, we’d played Diggers Rest, who are one of the top sides in the competition, and were found wanting. “But this week we took the chance to play our natural games and that worked for us with bat and ball.” Also impressive with the bat was Jessy Carroll who made 46, while Brandon Nicholls contributed 28. But the undoubted matchwinner was Sherlock. “Liam has been a standout all year,” Hourigan said. “He faces the new ball every week. He learns from his mistakes and that has really held him in good stead all season. “Anyone who makes a hundred in any finals match deserves a pat on the back and he was very impressive.” East Sunbury will play Diggers Rest Bulla in the grand final.

players in a few different positions,” he said. “I’m surprised how well they’ve responded. I think we’re ahead of schedule. “We have everyone on board and they’re showing great discipline, absorbing everything really well.” The loss ends Melton’s successful FFA Cup campaign in which the club beat Watsonia Heights, Dandenong South and Keilor Wolves on its way to the fourth round. Melton will now look to carry the momentum into its opening state league 4 match this weekend when it hosts Altona North. “I hope the boys don’t relax on their performances from the past two or three weeks. They need to carry on with what they’ve been doing and bring these performances to round one,” Schwellinger said. “Complacency can creep in once you’ve been performing for a few weeks, but I think they’re all smart enough and switched on enough to know what to do.” In other FFA Cup results, state league 1 club North Sunshine caused an upset, defeating NPL side Sunshine George Cross on penalties in a remarkable match. The score was 4-4 after 90 minutes and 6-6 after extra time before North Sunshine won the shoot-out 10-8. Melton’s Nicholas Vunderl does his best to win the ball against the Melbourne Knights.

Youth problem for Rockbank Rockbank is on the brink of having to fold its junior football division. The Rams will have no under-14s this season and have only five players signed up in each of the under-12s and under-16s. Rockbank president Mark Smith said the club had dropped its fees dramatically in an effort to attract players. “We were nearly going to fold them the other day, but we have decided to keep trying,” he said. “We need to get a minimum of around 15 or 16 players in each team, then we’ll be right. “Normally, once you get to about 15 or 16, you’re able to find a couple more. “We are dropping our fees right down to attract players. We’ve dropped them to about the $100 mark.” In an effort to ease long travel times, Rockbank has been placed in a division in which it will play nearby rivals such as Diggers Rest, Melton Centrals and Sunbury. Smith is concerned that not having juniors will lead to long-term damage to the club’s senior division. He said the Rams’ three best senior footballers this year had all come through the junior division. Jake Armistead and Thomas Mainey will co-captain the Rams this season, while Leigh Sobotnicki has previously represented the Western Jets in the TAC Cup and Werribee in the Victorian Football League. “We’ve gone from being a strong junior club over the years to fading away,” Smith said. “We’re struggling at under-18 level as well so the flow-on effect is starting to hurt us.” For more information about playing junior football for Rockbank, call Mark Smith on 0402 277 267.

MAZDA 3 MAXX/SP25 ASTINA

a car in the $26,000 range, but if you have a bit more to spend and want more bells and whistles there are a couple of alternatives within the Mazda showroom. The top-spec Mazda 3 SP25 Astina is replete with European features at a Japanese price. The first thing you notice when you push the start button is the display screen popping up in front of the steering wheel. This shows speed, sat nav directions and settings for my favourite feature, the

radar-controlled adaptive cruise control, which automatically slows down or speeds up depending on the speed of the car in front. As well as setting the maximum speed, you can set the gap you want between the car in front. Other state-of-the-art safety features include forward collision warning and lane departure warning, which senses if you cross the white line and makes a buzzing sound that gets your attention without scaring the hell out of you. There’s also blind-spot monitoring, smart

The Mazda 3 has long been one of Australia’s top-selling cars, thanks to good looks and build quality plus a host of variants to suit everyone. While best known as a hatch, I prefer the sedan versions for both aesthetics and practicality – the hatch has one of the smallest cargo areas in its class but the boot in the sedan, at 408 litres, is surprisingly cavernous considering its exterior shape. One good thing about the Mazda range is the equipment that comes as standard across the range. For example, the 2.0 Maxx, second in line after the base-model Neo, has the nifty MZD multi-media and smartphone integration system, which includes apps such as Pandora and can read out text messages, emails and even Facebook notifications. More importantly, it also features sat nav, reversing camera and decent six-speaker audio as standard. All this is displayed on a 7-inch touch screen that sits on top of the dashboard. It looks like the designers forgot to include it in the original design and just glued an iPad mini to the top of the dash once they realised the error. That said, you don’t have to look down as you would if it were embedded into the dashboard. The 2.0-litre petrol engine has Mazda’s Skytech technology, which provides more compression and, in turn, better fuel economy. It goes OK but lags a bit in auto. I think the Mazda 3 is one car that’s better, and a lot more fun to drive, in manual. The Mazda 3 Maxx represents good value for
