Mayor and council staff under fire over $14,000 ‘junket’ to Mexico

ADIOS AMIGOS!

By Sumeyya Ilanbey Melton council has come under fire for “wasting” ratepayer money on an extravagant overseas conference in Mexico. Watts ward councillor Lara Carli has criticised the council for spending about $14,000 on a UNESCO Institute for Lifelong Learning (UIL) conference, which she labelled a “junket”. At their meeting last week, councillors Bob Turner, Myles Bentley and Kathy Majdlik gave approval for mayor Sophie Ramsey, chief executive Kel Tori, and Lifelong Learning officer Peter Blunden to attend the conference from September 28-30. Only four of Melton’s seven councillors voted; two were absent and Cr Ramsey left the room. For a motion to be passed, a simple majority of those present is all that is required. “I’d like to know how our community would

be disadvantaged if the mayor and CEO didn’t attend,” said Cr Carli, who voted against it. “What would they bring back? I don’t think spending that money can be justified; it’s a waste of ratepayer money.” The UIL invited Melton to its second international conference on “learning cities” because the agenda features a case study on Melton, which, it says, has been a “trailblazer” in lifelong learning efforts. According to the conference website, a “learning city” is one which promotes inclusive learning from basic to higher education, revitalises learning in families and communities, facilitates learning in the workplace and “fosters a culture of learning throughout life”. Cr Ramsey said she saw many benefits of attending conferences and collaborating with other mayors, describing the experiences as invaluable.

“[In Mexico], countries from all around the world that have focused on learning will share knowledge, share resources and exchange ideas,” she said. “[Being invited] puts Melton on the international stage. To create those [community learning] tools takes time and effort and we’re still at the early stages, but to get that sort of recognition from UNESCO is a huge honour.” Cambridge, Coburn and Watts Ward Residents Association committee member Nathan Miles questioned the “$14,000 benefit” the conference would bring to the community, saying he was outraged the council was wasting ratepayers’ money while increasing rates. “The council continues to gouge residents for rates rather than looking at what they’re spending money on,” he said. “Wasting ratepayers money to go to Mexico is outrageous. What benefit will that trip bring to the community?”

In the nine months to April, councillors Nola Dunn, Turner, Ramsey and Majdlik were reimbursed more than $25,600 for conference, seminars and training expenses. And in June, Cr Ramsey and Mr Tori attended the three-day national general assembly of local government in Canberra at a cost of $5200 to ratepayers. Cr Carli said she didn’t see the benefits of conferences and had never been to one. But Mr Tori said: “We’re proud to have been invited to represent the City of Melton at an international level. “Attendance at the conference will build on relationships with member countries and provide an opportunity to share learning on sustainability and cultural exchanges. “The conference will also be an opportunity to speak to other world leaders in lifelong learning and learn more about best practice in the field.”

Hillside man charged with murder

By Esther Lauaki Melton commuters have given the new Regional Rail Link service from Ballarat the thumbs down, as services to and from the area have been scaled back. V/Line commuters have taken to Facebook to let off steam about delays and overcrowding as a result of fewer services on the Ballarat line through Bacchus Marsh, Melton and Rockbank since the introduction of new timetables on June 21. Only four services now stop at Melton in the 7am-9am peak hour, previously there were six. Regular commuter ‘Linda’, who travels from Melton to Southern Cross three days a week, said the overcrowding of V/Line trains in both mornings and afternoons was “ridiculous”. “I’m so angry about these changes,” she told Star Weekly. “I used to be able to catch the 7am or 7.13am, but now I can only catch one at 7.15am. “On Monday, the platform was packed. I’ve never seen anything like it.” Linda said that because of delays she had decided to use the Metro train from Albion which, she said, was not as congested and left every six minutes. “It’s ridiculous that I can’t catch a train from my own area,” she said. “These high numbers of commuters indicate we need more train services, not fewer.” Rowsley resident Dotty Hazell said son Matthew, who attends Staughton College in Melton, had to leave school early to catch the only feasible service back to Bacchus Marsh, which connects with only one bus home. “If he misses the 8.05am, the next train is not until 8.40 and that means he’ll be late for school,” she said. “Afternoons are even worse. To catch the 3.12pm train to Bacchus Marsh, he has to leave school early at 2.55 or wait for the next train at 3.48. This means he misses the one bus service home [to Rowsley].”

A 53-year-old Hillside man has been charged with the murder of his former wife, Teresa Mancuso, who was stabbed to death two years ago. Fernando Manuel Paulino appeared briefly in the Melbourne Magistrates Court last Wednesday charged with murder following the 2013 death of the 49-year-old mother-of-two in Reservoir. Mr Paulino was remanded in custody and faced an out of session court hearing last Tuesday night after homicide squad detectives arrested him at a Taylors Road, Sydenham, address. Ms Mancuso, also known as Teresa Paulino, divorced Mr Paulino in 1998 but continued an “on-off relationship” with him until about 2010, the court was told. She had two sons with Mr Paulino, both now aged in their 20s. Ms Mancuso’s body was found by a family member about 9.45pm on July 15, 2013, near the garage of the Massey Avenue, Reservoir, property she shared with her mother. Detective Senior Sergeant Stuart Bailey, of the homicide squad, said the arrest might help bring closure for Ms Mancuso’s family. The arrest came a week after what would have been Ms Mancuso’s 51st birthday. Police will prepare a brief of evidence by August, ahead of Mr Paulino’s next court appearance on October 13.

V/Line spokeswoman Ebony Jordan said it would take a couple of weeks for the new timetable to bed down. “As part of any new timetable, there are changes to departure times, stopping patterns and allocation of rolling stock,” she said. “V/Line and Public Transport Victoria have been closely monitoring the activity and patronage each day this week. “We’re already seeing Bacchus Marsh and Melton customers adjust their travel patterns for a comfortable journey. We also organised

coaches this morning to add capacity to the popular 6.04am service to Southern Cross Station. This arrangement will continue until further notice. We’re also progressively rolling out new VLocity carriages and these will be placed where there is the highest demand. “The new trains will help improve capacity on particularly busy services.” And two extra carriages will also begin running on the Ballarat line soon, further bolstering capacity in the morning and evening peaks.

Farmers Matthew and Beccara Lloyd purchased their Hamills Lane property in 1997 and later started a successful farm-gate business of 1200 breeding ewes and a large flock of sheep. The couple closed the meat business over concerns contaminated water was entering their property. Mrs Lloyd said high levels of PFOS were found in livestock’s blood and water supplies. She told the inquiry the couple’s property was on the boundary to Fiskville, and Lake Fiskville water flowed into dams at the back of their property. \ \ signs being hung “Matt noticed on the

Heated words in budget debate By Sumeyya Ilanbey A 4.4 per cent rate rise didn’t sit well with Melton councillor Lara Carli. For the third year in a row, the Watts ward representative voted against the council’s budget. During a heated debate at last week’s meeting, Cr Carli said residents would feel the “pinch” of this year’s rate rises. “We all know there are residents out there who are struggling. I can tell you [the rate increase] would hurt,” she said. Cr Kathy Majdlik said residents she spoke to were “very happy” with the services council delivered. “To be against this budget, our community needs to know what Cr Carli is basically saying … she does not support the services in this budget, such as the Taylors Hill pedestrian crossing being installed to make the lives of our children and residents safer,” she said. Cr Carli interjected. “That’s not what I said. I did say that I support the projects, but I believe we could still be delivering while capping rates. Did she understand?” Cr Majdlik responded: “Without this budget being supported, our community would not benefit from the services and capital infrastructure it’s delivered.” The council will raise about $93.1 million in rates this financial year, $11.1 million from fees and fines, $9.5 million from cash contributions, $62.5 million from non-cash contributions, $29.3 million from grants, and $5.7 million from “other” sources.

Mayor Sophie Ramsey said the council always strived to deliver a financially viable budget. “We look at [what needs to be done] in such a global way. It’s the priorities that come to the top and these are the must-dos,” Cr Ramsey said. “Then we work out what our capacity to pay is.” The rapid growth of the municipality meant the council had to increase its spending to deliver vital infrastructure projects and services, Cr Ramsey said.

‘‘

It’s the priorities that come to the top … these are - Sophie Ramsey the must-dos

’’

About $36.6 million will be spent on new capital works projects, while $7.7 million has been set aside to continue work on the Bridge Road Reserve’s athletics and hockey facility and pavilion, at Atherstone, which is expected to be completed next year. Cr Carli said she believed the council could have saved millions of dollars by delaying investment on this project. “At the time the Atherstone project was being delivered there weren’t many residents living in the area and there was only one hockey team that would utilise it and one athletics team,” she said. “I hope next year’s budget will be fairer than the budgets that have been delivered; I’d like our ratepayers to be given a fair go.”

Pearing up with planet With the one gesture, Melton West Primary School is honouring its school captains and looking after the planet. At a ceremony last week, the school planted ornamental pear trees, which will eventually form a canopy around the “arid” school oval. Wellbeing staff and student support teacher Jeffrey Knolder said they were hoping to inject some greenery and life into the school oval, while commemorating the hard work of school captains. “School captains do quite a bit during the year,” Mr Knolder said. “They interview staff, they show visitors around and they’re very active during school activities. This was one way of showing recognition.”

Five trees were planted to honour school captains from 2012 until the present year, and also late classroom teacher Suzanne Conroy. “How wonderful will it be for the children who’ve contributed to the school to come back years later and see the trees growing,” Mr Knolder said. This year’s school captains, Nazim and Kaitlyn, said they were excited to be honoured in such an environmentally friendly way. “We can come back in the future and show our families the trees,” Kaitlyn said. Nazim agreed: “I’ve done lots of things for the school and to help improve the school. Planting trees also helps the environment.” Sumeyya Ilanbey

Petrol thefts drive inquiry By Esther Lauaki Melton is Melbourne’s worst suburb for service station drive-offs. The city recorded 144 fuel thefts between April 2014 and March 2015, an average of 12 a month, making it one of Victoria’s worst suburbs for petrol bowser drive-offs. Neighbouring shire Moorabool had just 24 thefts for the same time. Altona Meadows, Werribee and Laverton North are also among the worst-hit suburbs. United 24 franchisee Arul Packiadoss said petrol thefts were costing his Taylors Lakes service station up to $12,000 a year. In the latest theft from the service station, on the corner of Kings Road and Melton Highway, a driver made off with fuel valued at $66. “We have a drive-off almost every day,” Mr Packiadoss said. “We’re losing $800 to $1000 a month. A few years back it was $400-$500 a month, but it’s definitely more common now. So far this month we’ve lost $867.” Many service stations now operate a pre-pay policy from 8pm-5am to deter petrol drive-offs, but that’s not an option for Mr Packiadoss. “It’s frustrating, but I can’t do much about it,” he said. “I can’t switch to pre-pay pumps because that’s for head office to decide. “There’s not much the police can do either. They do their best, but most of these [petrol thieves] are driving on stolen plates anyway. “I can’t make that money back, it goes directly from my profit margins.” A parliamentary committee investigating petrol theft is calling for submissions until

Art makes a difference Blair Angelo hopes to learn as much as he will teach about pottery making in Vanuatu. The 61-year-old will head to the island later this week for about 10 days to help with recovery efforts after the devastating Cyclone Pam in March this year. “The Pacific Islanders are our neighbours, and we need to be helping much more,” Mr Angelo says. “We’re so wealthy and they’ve got so little. We see Vanuatu simply as a resort and I’m keen to look past that.” The Bacchus Marsh artist will be holding pottery classes in Malekula. He refuses to praise his own efforts, insisting instead there’s nothing grandiose about donating money and time to help people who are less fortunate. Mr Angelo worked as an integration aide at a high school for most of his life. A few years ago, he decided to abandon the steady job and income to follow his dreams. “Our education system is lacking,” he says. “We tend to be very intellectual and academic, using computers and words but, for some of us, learning is a hands-on experience – and engaging with clay is just what we need. “It’s a very therapeutic thing to get into because it teaches you patience, process and self-understanding.” Mr Angelo is no stranger to humanitarian work. He’s travelled to Third World countries, worked with communities in central Australia and visits prisons a few times a month to teach pottery-making. “My belief system is that you should be giving and participating in life. You should be leaving life with more than just your footprints.” Mr Angelo is hoping to take some seeds to Vanuatu for locals to grow their own plants.

July 17. Committee chairman Geoff Howard said the committee will investigate the circumstances that lead to someone filling up their vehicle at a petrol station and driving off without paying. “We’re looking at the measures needed to prevent this happening and the sorts of remedies that need to be in place when this does happen. We will talk to a broad range of people, including the service station industry, legal experts, business peak bodies and government agencies.

App marks the spot A virtual world built from memories and real-life events at St Anthony of Padua Primary School hit digital screens last week. During second term, Arena Theatre Company members worked with students and staff at the Melton South school to create Point of View, a project that used augmented reality technology (ART) to “bring to life”, or animate, still photographs by adding voice-overs to images. These were then compiled as on-screen vignettes of the school’s history. ART uses mobile technology to trigger digital content from an otherwise non-digital source; for example, holding an iPad, which has the app downloaded, over the image of the playground enabled students to then animate that still image with people and props. Students listened to and gathered stories

about the most exciting and interesting places at the school, “where amazing things have happened and memories have been created”. School principal Damien Schuster said the project involved many people, including current and former students, staff and parents. “Hotspots were created by the artists and the students around the school that truly reflected the history,” said Mr Schuster, explaining that the hotspots were particular places that symbolised the story being told. “The project celebrated the unique character of the school and the broader community in Melton South,” he said.

Black spots out of the woods By Esther Lauaki Blackwood’s days as a black spot for mobile coverage are numbered, thanks to new infrastructure funding. A new mobile base station will be constructed within the next three years as part of the federal government’s $100 million Mobile Black Spot program announced last week. The funding enables Telstra to plan to build a base station at Blackwood that will significantly improve the town’s fixed line, mobile and internet coverage. The mayor of Moorabool council, Paul Tatchell, said he was thrilled with news of the funding. “Council and the Blackwood community, and a host of stakeholders, have been relentless in advocating for this service, so it’s a great result – I’m just so pleased for the Blackwood community,” Cr Tatchell said. “When the federal government’s mobile coverage program was announced, we were expecting fierce competition. “More than three-quarters of the continent was eligible and more than 6200 locations nominated for the funding. “However, the need was dire, so we developed a compelling case around public safety and emergency management, and worked pro-actively with the Blackwood community and a range of agencies. “Working collectively, we did all we could to see that Blackwood’s needs were prioritised in this national scramble,” Cr Tatchell said.

He said there are about 39 Moorabool locations still needing better coverage, including Dales Creek, Greendale and Ballan. The council has been urging residents to lobby for action for some time. Federal MP Catherine King, Emergency Management Victoria commissioner Craig Lapsley and others helped push Blackwood’s cause, Cr Tatchell said.

‘‘

The need was dire, so we developed a compelling - Paul Tatchell case

’’

He said the inclusion of Blackwood among the top three locations nominated by the Central Highlands mayors and chief executives forum was critical to their case. “But, most of all, the work of the entire Blackwood community needs to be recognised. Their work with our economic development unit in co-ordinating a targeted direct mail campaign was instrumental in demonstrating to the government and the telcos that Blackwood just had to be on that list.” Cr Tatchell said he looked forward to Telstra meeting with council staff in the near future to sort out the particulars. “Telstra’s got to work out the rollout schedule in consultation with federal and state governments and it needs to go through the usual planning process, so the sooner we start this process, the better for all concerned.”

Steam team steps up A re-enactment of Victorian railways steam locomotive R707’s 1985 inaugural tour to Bacchus Marsh will be the first leg of week-long celebrations of the 30th anniversary of the train’s restoration. July 20 marks three decades since City of Melbourne’s restoration and its entry into mainline heritage operations. To commemorate the milestone, Vintage Rail Travel and 707 Operations, a volunteer group of locomotive fans, have organised two steam train journeys for community members, family and friends to pay tribute to everyone associated with the restoration and 30 years of operation. Jeff Moorhead, of 707 Operations, said it’s about celebrating the history of the trains. “Vintage Rail Travel/707 Operations is an

all-volunteer mainline heritage group that restores and maintains a fleet of heritage steam and diesel locomotives and carriages from the 1940s and ’50s for operation on Victoria’s rail network,” Mr Moorhead said. “It’s a special day for all of those involved who love these trains.” The first re-enactment trip, on July 12, will depart the Newport Heritage Workshops at 10.30am, arrive in Bacchus Marsh at 11.55am and return to Newport at 2.40pm. For the second journey, a triple-headed steam train with locomotives R707, R761 and R711 will make a return trip to Seymour on July 19. Book at www.707operations.com.au or call 0403 883 424.

VCAT gives nod to mosque By Sumeyya Ilanbey Melton councillors have expressed concerns about a Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal decision to allow the construction of a mosque in Melton South. VCAT over-ruled the council’s decision to deny the developer permits for 171-197 Harkness Road after a tribunal hearing earlier this year. In July 2012, the council issued a permit for the site to be used as a place of worship, restricting the permit to five years, the building’s use to Wednesday and Friday evenings and Sunday mornings, and the maximum number of people in attendance to 60. But earlier this year a new applicant, Melbourne Islamic Centre, sought an amendment to the permit for the construction of a mosque, which would increase the site’s use from nine hours a week to 26 hours. Prayer sessions would run for no more than 45 minutes five times a day between 5am and 11pm. Council planning and environment manager Bob Baggio said the council received six objections from owners of nearby properties to the proposed amendment, citing increased hours, traffic and noise and visual impacts. In handing down VCAT’s decision last month, tribunal member Geoffrey Code said some of the existing permit conditions would remain, including the “modest” size of the building, the maximum number of people in

attendance to not exceed 60, the use not to cause nuisance, and the worshippers to park vehicles on site. A council report presented at a meeting last week states the “establishment of urban type uses, such as places of worship, are becoming an issue for council in the rural areas, particularly in the northern green wedge”.

‘‘

The mosque offers … benefits for people of the Islamic faith

’’

- Geoffrey Code

On its website, council identifies green wedges as spaces that provide opportunities for agricultural use and tourism, sites for infrastructure that supports urban areas, and sites that preserve rural and scenic landscapes. Mr Code said a place of worship was not prohibited in a green wedge. “State policy refers to supporting developments in green wedges that offer social benefits,” Mr Code said. “The mosque offers religious and social benefits for people of the Islamic faith in and around Melton.” Cr Kathy Majdlik, while moving a motion to note VCAT’s decision, said she didn’t agree with the tribunal. VCAT has ruled Melbourne Islamic Centre is required to seal a kilometre of Harkness Road as part of the permit.

Honour restored A new Avenue of Honour lined with eucalypts will mark the significant contribution the small rural village of Coimadai made to World War I. An unveiling ceremony for the new avenue was held last Saturday to pay tribute to 129 World War I servicemen and women who signed up from the township of just 326 in 1914. Many of those volunteers never returned and an Avenue of Honour was planted in 1918, only for those trees to be lost over almost a century. It is now submerged under Merrimu Reservoir. More than 400 people turned out to see Veterans Affairs minister Senator Michael Ronaldson unveil the bigger and better Avenue of Honour planted with 129 eucalypts trees. Horse-drawn carts took to the streets, 32 local children laid wreaths and flags were raised as a brass band played early 1900s music.

Coimadai Avenue of Honour Restoration Association was formed two years ago with the aim of bringing the avenue back to its former glory. The group also relocated the war memorial to Diggers Rest-Coimadai Road and created a picnic ground/reserve area around it. Bacchus Marsh resident Neil Campbell’s late father and uncle, Archibald Campbell and John Campbell, are named on the Coimadai war memorial. “It was a nice day for me and very sentimental,” he said. “They’ve done a fantastic job and it means a lot for me because that’s my father and my uncle up there. What more can you ask for?” Esther Lauaki

Trivia Night co-organiser Sean Rodger with Brendan, Cassie, Olivia, Daniel and Adam. (Darren Howe)

Kids let parents play Late-night training, early-morning matches, long-distance travel – the efforts of parents generally go unnoticed during footy season. But it’s adults, as well as children, who keep Diggers Rest Junior Netball and Football Club alive. And come next month, the adults can unwind, sip on drinks and mingle with others at the club’s annual Trivia Night, while raising money for the club. Event co-organiser Jackie Downing said the trivia night was solely about the adults. “Week by week, it’s all about the kids, and this trivia night is an opportunity for the adults to bond,” she said. “It’s about developing a football club that’s united.” Club members want to raise enough money

to buy new gear and training equipment. Ms Downing said they would put some money towards end-of-year presentation days. “Without the money, it just means kids are going to miss out,” Ms Downing said. “We’re competing, like any other organisation, against local clubs. We’ve got a shortage of kids and what we need to do is create an environment where kids want to come.” The trivia night will be held on Saturday, July 25, from 7.30pm at the Diggers Rest Community Hall, Plumpton Road, Diggers Rest. Tickets cost $10. Details: Jackie, 0405 225 532 or Natalie, 0400 120 294 Sumeyya Ilanbey

Lovingly cared for, this appealing abode on about 750 square metres has plenty of features for the prospective buyer, with ample room for a family. All four bedrooms have wardrobes; the main also has an en suite. A large family-meals area and separate lounge room near the front provide plenty of spread-out space, while in the kitchen the amber-toned timber cabinetry contrasts nicely with the white tiled splashback, dishwasher, wall oven, 900mm gas cooktop and white floor tiles. Additional features include ducted heating, air-conditioning, ceiling fans and a lock-up double garage with rear access. A large deck and established gardens make the backyard great for entertainment, with ample room for the kids to run and play. It’s a stone’s throw from the Woodgrove shopping centre, with schools and Western Freeway access a short drive away.

It’s hard to decide on the main drawcard of this 577-square-metre property, with so much on offer. Entry into the main foyer reveals a wide hallway with pristine white floor tiles that lead past the main bedroom (with its walk-in wardrobe and en suite with dual raised-basin vanity) to the large carpeted lounge room with a feature fireplace. Once past this area, the family-meals area comes into view, with an additional adjoining living zone and kitchen with stainless-steel upright cooker, dishwasher, large pantry and charcoal-toned cabinetry that contrasts nicely with the white Caesarstone benchtops. The remaining three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and share the main bathroom. Other features are ducted heating, evaporative cooling and a remote-controlled double garage with rear and internal access. Two covered outdoor areas at the rear and side cater to a range of entertainment options. The property is just a short drive to all the amenities Eynesbury offers.

On about 558 square metres, this large corner property will appeal to first-home buyers, growing families and investors alike. A carpeted lounge room provides plenty of space for the family to relax indoors, while the tiled family-meals area includes the kitchen with stainless-steel dishwasher, underbench oven, 900mm gas cooktop, breakfast bar and ample cupboard space. A carpeted rumpus area adjoins. Two of the three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes; the main has walk-in wardrobe and en suite. Both the low-maintenance front and backyard require a bit of TLC but are ideal for budding gardeners who want to make their mark. Extras include ducted heating, split-system, water tank and lock-up double garage with drive-through access to a large concrete entertainment area. The property is a short drive from the town centre, Woodgrove shopping centre, Melton train station and schools.

Serenity, privacy, silence and spectacular outlooks are just some of the attributes that enhance this lifestyle property of about 1.21 hectares. The homestead-style house has four bedrooms, the main with an en suite. Spacious, light-filled living areas include a carpeted lounge room with a brick fireplace, ceiling fan and wall air-conditioner, and a tiled family-meals area with a wood heater. The kitchen has lots of blond timber-look cupboards, a servery bench incorporating a breakfast bar, an electric cooktop and stainless-steel wall oven. A large, partially enclosed alfresco zone with concrete paving more than caters for any entertainment – it could fit in a horde. A bonus for tradies or hobbyists, there’s a huge Colorbond shed able to house up to 10 vehicles.

If this house and, indeed, gardens, front and back, were any more spotless it would be scary – how fantastic that move-in day won’t uncover any untended nooks and crannies. The same attention to detail is found in a consistent decor, with wall paint, carpet and laminate all in the softest green, white accents on skirts, cornices and dado rails, and all window furnishings stamped with elegance. And the slate floor tiles in all rooms, except main bedroom and lounge room, anchor the colour palette and deliver easy upkeep.

Private sale

The entry foyer, with a deep display niche, has the first of four bedrooms on the right – also well-placed to be a study. The main bedroom opposite has a walk-in wardrobe and en suite with dual vanity basins. Straight ahead, there’s a carpeted lounge room with two entry points and a cast-iron fireplace set in an exposed brick chimney. Next is the large living hub, with the sitting area defined by a wide bay window. The kitchen in here has a garden window with views to the outdoor zone,

plenty of storage, a pantry, dishwasher, wall oven and 900mm gas cooktop. Down a hallway from the family room, there are two bedrooms – one extra-big and both with wardrobes – a laundry with closet, separate toilet and main bathroom with heat lamp. This place really shines in its outdoor spaces. A huge gabled pergola above stamped concrete, sheltered by latticework and shadecloth, is beautified with tropical greenery; it wraps around to the back and the opposite side where it has quality shadecloth overhead.

The pristine backyard on the block of about 820 square metres has two patches of synthetic grass surrounded by river stones, a box hedge rimming a rustic water feature, and pittosporum fence screens. There’s literally nothing left to complete at this place. Within a stroll of St Catherine’s Primary School and Catholic Regional College, the property also has ducted heating, a garden shed, 9000-litre water tank and double garage.

Local market insight is the key to buying property at the right price

Data is king and the more you have the better informed you are. That’s why Domain has added more property data to its listings so you can gain a better understanding of the value of property in your area. You can now see past sales activity, local sales and the suburb’s performance over the last 8 years. The best part is, it’s free! Wouldn’t it be nice if you could see what similar properties have sold for? Well it’s now only a click away. The graph in the property to the right shows the spread of similar properties at different price points from the lowest to the higher ends of the market.

47 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 30, 2015

SPORT Gutsy Rams ready for testing times Rockbank faces a brutal month coming out of last week’s Riddell District Football League bye. Sitting in 10th place on the ladder, the Rams will face premiership contenders in two or their next three matches. But after seeing his charges show strong signs of improvement in the lead-up to the break, Rockbank coach Gavin Sporle is welcoming the challenge. The Rams recently pushed Riddell for three quarters in a performance that displayed serious guts and determination. Sporle is hoping that momentum can be carried forward when his side takes on the fourth-placed Diggers Rest this weekend. “You always want the guys to come up against the best sides and the week after the bye we will have that opportunity again,” he said. “For us it is about getting that opportunity to test the structures that we have put in place and see how they hold up against these higher-quality sides. “We had three quarters of pretty positive football against Riddell. Hopefully, we can do the same thing against Diggers Rest but for a longer period.” Last week’s bye came at a good time for Rockbank, which was able to reassess after a tough first half of the season. After making finals last year, the Rams have won just one game in 2015. When things have clicked for the club, it has looked like a top-six contender – but sustaining that level of play has been a problem. “We have a really tough five or six weeks coming up against some good opposition,” Sporle said. “But I think we can really get some strong learning from that … about what it takes to go to the next level.” Following its match against Diggers Rest, Rockbank will take on Melton Centrals before a hit-out against finals-bound Rupertswood.

A decade since the big one The 2015 season has been a struggle for Ballarat Football League side Melton, but the Bloods had plenty of reason to celebrate earlier this month. Several of the club’s heroes from yesteryear returned to MacPherson Park to commemorate one of the greatest days in the Bloods’ recent history. This season marks 10 years since the Melton seniors’ last premiership, when the Bloods got the better of BFL rival Sunbury by 31 points. Premiership captain Andrew Button said it was great to catch up with old teammates and remember the win. “Everyone goes different ways, and a few have travelled around a bit, so it was good to catch up with everyone,” Button said. “I finished up at the club in 2007 or 2008 and I’ve kept an eye on how they were going ever since.” Melton was forced to call on all its fighting ability to secure the 2005 premiership after finishing the home and away season fourth on the ladder. Underdogs right through the finals, the Bloods got the better of Lake Wendouree and Redan en route to securing the premiership cup. Button says the fact his team was given no chance by many around the league made the win all the more special. “We did play our best in finals. We weren’t expected to win it, but we managed to perform at the right time and were able to snatch it,” he said. “Everyone just worked really hard to get us to where we got. They came at us pretty hard late, but we managed to hold on and win.” Melton went on to play finals in 2006 and 2007 but was eliminated in the first week both times. The Bloods have not finished in the top six since but are looking to break the mean streak this year. Melton is in eighth spot, six points behind sixth-placed East Point.

Panthers refuse to lie down By Liam Twomey Bouncing back from adversity has been a highlight of Melton South’s Ballarat Football League campaign. Touted as a struggler before the season started and in a clear rebuilding phase, it would have been easy for the Panthers to succumb to a lot of pain without much gain in 2015. But the club has shown an ability to fight with the best of them. After a 222-point loss to North Ballarat City earlier in the year, Melton South bounced back the following week with a win over Sebastopol. Two weeks later, the Panthers were dealt a 77-point thrashing by Darley, only to respond with what head coach Mark Pedersen called their best performance of the season in a narrow loss to finals-bound East Point. “We actually have a song that we talk about which is, ‘I get knocked down, but I get up again’,” Pedersen said. “As a club, we’re really happy where we’re at. We are still getting about 70 on the track, which is great. “We have changed the culture of the club because you need to get things right off field 48 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 30, 2015

before you get them right on field. We just need to get as many games into these young blokes as possible because they are the future of the club.” Part of the reason for Melton South’s success has been the club’s strong coaching panel. Pedersen has previously coached at VFL level, while former AFL players Darren Stanley and David Antonowicz form part of his panel. They are joined by Shane Geddes, who has coached Riddell District Football League representative sides. Pedersen said the relationship with the playing group was fantastic. “We do a fair bit of talking with the players about how well they are learning,” Pedersen said. “They need to understand they’re going to go through some short-term pain first. They are aware of that and understand that.” The fighting attitude will need to be called upon again after Melton South went down to Ballarat at the weekend. In what was a winnable game, the Panthers fell short by 37 points, 19.14 (128) - 13.13 (91). Melton South will come up against fourth-placed Lake Wendouree this weekend.

Melton South players are united in their rebuild. (Damian Visentini)

Bloods still on the boil By Liam Twomey The names on the scoresheet may have changed but the same fighting attitude remains – that’s the message from Melton after the first half of the Ballarat Netball League season. Reigning premiers, the Bloods were touted as potential strugglers this season following the loss of star duo Melissa McCauley and Brooke Thompson. But the club’s junior stars have proved they have no issues with taking on a challenge. Led by new coach Brooke Gleeson, Melton is outside the top six on percentage and again in the hunt for a finals berth. Melton netball co-ordinator Kate Williams is full of praise for the way her players have attacked the season. “Losing Mel and Brooke was obviously big, but our junior girls have really stepped up and are playing amazing netball,” she said. “So the team hasn’t lost any of its fight or speed of play.” Carli Rickman is one of a host of players stepping up for the Bloods. The defender is leading Melton’s under-19 best and fairest award and has been a key contributor for the A-grade side. She’s been well supported by Meg Gleeson and Madelyn Gray. With the Victorian Netball League season over, the Bloods will welcome back Libby Birch and Grace Rogers. Both played in Melton’s 2014 A-grade premiership side. Williams believes there is no limit to what her team can achieve this year. “If we can draw on the way we were playing and defending last year, then anything is possible,” Williams said.

Cobras build on flying start It may be only its first year, but Bacchus Marsh women’s football team has no fear. The Cobras, established in February, have met every challenge head-on in the west division of the Victorian Women’s Football League. Bacchus Marsh got its first win of the season in round two, smashing Kyneton by 80 points. And while that has been the only win, Cobras team manager Rod Bertram says that, off-field, it’s been a great start to the season. “The numbers are increasing all the time and we’re getting a lot of inquiries from girls wanting to play,” he says. “People are more aware we exist. I think next year will be even bigger because we’ll have had a year of competition.” While the Cobras didn’t have to wait long for their first win, there have been some heavy defeats to navigate since. But Bacchus Marsh responded in the best possible fashion, taking it up to some of the league’s strongest teams in their second meetings. The Cobras were ultra-competitive against second-placed Melton Centrals and third-placed Manor Lakes in recent weeks. “I think by the end of the season we’ll be matching it with Melton, Manor Lakes and Jacana,” Bertram says. At the top end of the ladder, there’s no stopping Sunbury Lions, who have smashed their way through the west division with nine wins in nine matches. Liam Twomey

Whitney Hicks has been a standout for Melton. (Shawn Smits)

49 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ JUNE 30, 2015

MOTOR Sexy ‘Lexie’ is a brute with style The Lexus RC F is a versatile car that can play the role of both beauty and beast. The two-door coupe’s sweeping lines and interior styling are aesthetically pleasing although quite brutish from some angles. Then there’s its grunt. As I put my foot down for the first time, the acceleration pinned me to my seat and within two seconds I inadvertently exceeded the speed limit. That sensation was matched by the epic sound of the normally-aspirated 5.0-litre V8 opening up through a second pipe like the Archangel Gabriel on trombone accompanied by a dragon. A massive smile on my face, I put it into cruise control, totally aware that if I wasn’t careful I’d be asking my boss for a character reference. Doing 110km/h on country freeways is a mere canter for this car, which has a top speed of 270km/h and does 0-100km in 4.4 seconds. The faster you go the more the 19-inch wheels feel like they’re sticking to the road, thanks to the handling and brake assist systems. Huge Bembo brakes stop this thing as rapidly as it accelerates. The RC F (F being Lexus’ performance brand) has four driving modes: normal, sport, sport + and eco. The difference between normal and sport is palpable. The revs are higher at lower speed, so you can turn heads at shopping centres. Sport + takes things up another notch and also has different handling characteristics, which you can set yourself.

LEXUS RC F

Eco mode … yeah, whatever. The eight-speed automatic transmission is silky smooth and usually changes up or down when you want it to. There’s a manual mode with steering wheel paddles, but like most cars I didn’t find it instinctive like a true manual, so I generally left it in automatic. Lexus claims the RC F does 10.4 litres per 100km combined, but I didn’t exactly drive in an economical manner so I can’t vouch for that. Being a Lexus, there’s no shortage of safety features and creature comforts. The look and feel of the interior is designed to

create “a sports-oriented driving experience”, but it’s still incredibly comfortable with high-back leather seats that almost cocoon you. My girlfriend, who doesn’t share my automobile obsession, said it was the most comfortable she’d ever been in a car, so much so she knitted a baby hat on a drive to Castlemaine. A digital display shows analogue-style gauges that change depending on what driving mode you’re in. There’s also a small driver information screen displaying everything from what song is playing to G-forces on bends. A 7-inch screen displays the usual media,

phone, sat nav, climate control and systems info. It’s out of arm’s reach so is controlled by a laptop-style finger pad, which is pretty instinctive once you get used to it. Music is via an excellent 17-speaker Mark Levinson sound system. Safety features include active cruise control, pre-collision safety system, blind-spot detection and lane departure warning. This Lexus more than matches its European counterparts, such as the BMW m4, and its $133,500 price tag (before on-roads) is substantially lower.
