Daffodils cast glow of hope

(Shawn Smits)

Vijayshree and Ravi Behal will don yellow come Daffodil Day and they’re urging everyone else to join them. With hundreds of thousands of Australians living with cancer, it’s likely most people will know someone affected by the disease. This Daffodil Day, on August 28, Cancer Council Victoria is hoping to raise $2 million to fund vital research, prevention programs and support services. People are being invited to register to volunteer, order a merchandise box or donate online at daffodilday.com.au or by calling 1300 656 585.

Rail link off the tracks By Esther Lauaki Commuters are bearing the brunt of delays and cancelled services, with punctuality for V/Line’s Ballarat trains having plummeted since the Regional Rail Link opened last month. The link was supposed to free up capacity for both regional and metropolitan services but has instead led to frequent cancellations and overcrowding. Data from Public Transport Victoria shows the V/Line Ballarat service’s punctuality results plunged to 85.3 per cent from 95 per cent the week before the launch. Chronic overcrowding on the Ballarat line was the result of a decision to remove carriages from that line to add to trains travelling on the

Geelong line. Social media has been flooded with complaints of fewer services through Bacchus Marsh, Melton and Rockbank since new timetables were introduced on June 21. Some commuter trips between Melbourne and Ballarat that previously took little more than one hour have since blown out to an hour and 45 minutes. Bacchus Marsh resident Bill Mansell last week said his son was continuing to experience delays on his daily commute to Ballarat. “Every change being made to this rail link is dedicated to the commuters going to Melbourne and they’re not looking after us to go the other way,” Mr Mansell said. “In the past, the trains used to leave at about 7.20am, but now they have to catch the bus at

INFOCUS FOCUS

7.01am to arrive for school at about 7.20am – or be late. It’s very early for the kids to go to school and workers to arrive for work. “A petition was lodged with PTV, V/Line and the local MPs, and the response from V/Line is to cancel the train through Bacchus Marsh. They have no idea about what the community’s needs are.” V/Line’s leadership travelled on the Ballarat service to Southern Cross Station during the morning peak in the rail link’s opening weeks to hear from customers firsthand. “We know how frustrating it can be when trains are late so we’re doing everything we can to improve the service for our Ballarat line customers,” V/Line spokeswoman Ebony Jordan told Star Weekly.

“We still have some work to do to get our punctuality to the levels that our customers deserve and expect.” Two carriages have since been added back on to the Ballarat line during peak hours. “We have new carriages coming out of the Bombardier workshop every two to three weeks and these will go where there is the highest demand,” Ms Jordan said. “We’ve heard the concerns of our customers and we will make changes swiftly.” Daily patronage figures are published online to help commuters choose trains with more available capacity. A review of the regional rail link rollout is not due to start until late August. Punctuality figures are at www.vline.com.au

Federal cash seals the deal for Mt Cottrell Road

Mt Cottrell Road, between Greigs Road West and Boundary Road, will be sealed thanks to extra funding from the federal government. As part of the additional funding to the Roads aps and to Recovery program, the federal government models will more than double Melton council’s share money over the next five years. ll beofon The council will receive an extra $3.45 million, bringing the total to display $7.05 million. The bulk of the money ($2.94 million) will be handed over to council this and next financial year.

At their meeting last week, councillors voted in favour of sealing the 4.8 kilometres of Mt Cottrell Road, where two people were killed and three were injured in the past five years. According to a report to council by its officers, about 680 vehicles use the road each day. The project, which is expected to cost $4.49 million, will be completed over two financial years, with the council spending about $1.54 million to fund the shortfall. “This is a good news story,” mayor Sophie

Ramsey said. “To think there’s been a number of car crashes and two fatalities … Sealing has been enabled through great advocacy and networking.” The project’s design, with all native vegetation assessments completed, was funded in the 2013-14 budget. “This announcement by the federal government does not have an adverse effect on council’s budget,” the report stated. “It allows council to bring forward the construction of Mt Cottrell Road using the additional income.”

As part of the funding requirement, works on the project need to start this financial year. “The Mt Cottrell Road project will affect the travelling public during construction,” the council report states. “Access to adjoining properties will be maintained … and residents will be notified prior to the commencement of works.” Sumeyya Ilanbey

Some missing out on price bubble

DAMIEN SHEEHY

Grieving dad fights on A Melton South man is vowing to find justice for his son who died in a house fire in 2012. The family of Daniel Sheehy, 18, believe “gang members” set their son’s bedroom alight in the early hours of March 14, 2012. But earlier this year, a coroner ruled the fire was most likely caused accidentally by a discarded cigarette. About two weeks ago, Damien Sheehy started a petition on change.org urging the Police and Emergency Services Minister Wade Noonan to review the coroner’s findings into his son’s death.

More than 1000 people have already signed the petition. “The only time the media help is when it suits them. Please, will you support our cause for justice? No family should live this in life,” the petition states Mr Sheehy told Star Weekly new evidence had surfaced, which “strongly” suggested foul play in his son’s death. “We hacked his Facebook account the night before the coroner’s findings and there were threats made against him two nights before the fire,” Mr Sheehy said. “After seeing the new evidence, I honestly believe we’ve got a chance. We just want an open finding.”

At the time, neighbours gave evidence a “foreign-looking” car and a man were seen near the house during the fire. And hours before the blaze, Mr Sheehy junior told his girlfriend of fears he had of a man who had threatened him over suspicions Mr Sheehy had spoken about the man to a drug dealer. The night before he died, the teenager also told his father he was worried that members of a drug gang would “run through” their home, state coroner Ian Gray said in his findings. “I think this was summed up too quickly,” Mr Sheehy said. “I’ll go to me grave knowing he was murdered until they prove me otherwise.” To sign the petition, visit chn.ge/1f9xl78

Melton property prices are out of sync with the housing market’s Midas run in the outer west. The latest CoreLogic RP Data Pain and Gain report compared sales prices paid seven to 10 years ago with those of today. Results showed 15.2 per cent of Melton houses resold in this timeframe fetched less than the original purchase price. Melbourne topped the list with the highest proportion of loss-making resales – more than 24 per cent, followed by Melton, Macedon Ranges and Whittlesea. The average loss to Melbourne vendors in this category was about $34,000. Barry Plant Melton sales executive John McCann said the results didn’t surprise him. “Some investors simply buy the most affordable house and don’t keep maintenance up to date or visit their property,” he said. “Well-maintained properties that have been well managed offer the best chance of capital growth.” RPDnationwide manager Russell Parker believes market trends could be to blame. “Because of the price hike back in 2010 and early 2011, since then there has been a price adjustment and most people who purchased at that time are not able to recoup their money,” he said. “It’s true in some cases, but not all … we always strive to obtain the best possible price for our owners.” Moorabool and Murrindindi were the only areas of Victoria where no resale losses were recorded over the past quarter.

Council ‘no’ to telco tower bid By Sumeyya Ilanbey Taylors Hill residents are celebrating their victory after Melton council denied Vodafone and Optus a permit to erect a 25-metre mobile phone tower in their “backyards”. The controversial permit application was discussed at last week’s council meeting, with councillors Sophie Ramsey, Renata Cugliari, Lara Carli, Myles Bentley and Bob Turner all voting to deny the applicants a permit. Councillors Kathy Majdlik and Nola Dunn were absent. As reported by Star Weekly earlier this year, construction company Daly International, representing the two telcos, applied to the council for a permit to erect a mobile phone tower at a Taylors Hill reserve, commonly known as the Melbourne water tank reserve. Similar plans by telecommunications companies Orange and Telstra at the same location were defeated in 2001 and 2005, respectively. Council’s planning and development general manager Luke Shannon told last week’s meeting there had been 53 objections to the permit application, including a petition with 134 signatures. “Depending on the outcome, if council does indeed refuse, my [inclination] is that the carrier will get the message that perhaps this is not an appropriate site for such a facility,” Mr Shannon said. Stavroula Singh, who led the campaign against the mobile phone tower, told Star

Taylors Hill residents at the contested phone tower site. (Mathew Lynn)

Weekly that residents would finally sleep in peace at night. “We are very pleased that council refused the application,” Ms Singh said. “It was really stressful because we didn’t know which way the council would vote. “Hopefully, this sets a precedent for other applicants looking at the area, that this site is not suitable for a telecommunications facility,” she said. Cr Carli congratulated residents who fought hard against the application, collecting signatures in rain and hail. “In 2001, Taylors Hill residents said no. In 2005, Taylors Hill residents said no, and, again in 2015, Taylors Hill residents are saying no,” Cr Carli said. “So I hope this sends a loud and clear message to telecommunication companies that we do not want it.” A Vodafone spokeswoman said the two telcos would consider their options following the council’s decision.

We all know that living in the outer suburbs of Melbourne can be fantastic, with its open spaces, relaxed lifestyle and friendly people. But, it can also be a challenge. Living in the outer suburbs often means being faced with poor public transport and limited health services. Which is why Council welcomes the creation of the Interface Growth Fund; designed to close the gap of critical infrastructure and services in outer suburbs.

Their love, respect and admiration for each other is obvious; their stories are not of hardships endured, but of the undying commitment they made to each other on July 16, 1955. “Ann’s a very loving young lady, and she remembers things that I forget,” Richard says.

We are currently waiting on responses and will keep the community updated as information becomes available. Club are currently underway. Almost 2,000m3 of the green’s surface has been replaced; and new paths and retaining walls will provide the club with the opportunity to plant new gardens.

By Sumeyya Ilanbey Stephanie Zacharias hopes her peers will finally understand the ramifications of the drug ice, which is tearing apart users, their families and friends. The year 12 Catholic Regional College Melton student approached deputy principal Rob Blackley about hosting a drug forum. “The idea was to put together a forum with people who’ve been impacted by the drug,” Mr Blackley said. “We wanted someone who had initial contact with ice; for example, paramedics, doctors, police and even parents with a child using it.” A panel of senior police, doctors, paramedics, parents and psychologists will next month give a presentation about the ramifications of drugs, and take questions from the audience. Mr Blackley said they were hoping to educate the community, not just students, about the harm of using ice. “It’s going to be at a secondary school where children are going to be exposed to the drug, offered it or maybe experiment with it,” he said. “Students at that age don’t necessarily understand the potential long-term impacts from a health or social point of view.” And while there had been an increased awareness of the impact of ice on communities, more needed to be done to stress the seriousness and danger of the drug, he said. Mr Blackley said Ms Zacharias had shown a maturity beyond her age in expressing concerns for her peers. “She said that as an educational institution, we have a significant role to play in not only educating our student community but also our parent community,” Mr Blackley said.

Ms Zacharias said the implications of drug use needed to be unveiled and discussed, without shying away from it. “I see [ice] affecting the people around, loved ones, people I’m close to and not close to,” she said. “I’ve seen how it’s caused problems in

the friendship groups, and I’ve witnessed people around me on the drugs … and it’s so scary.” The drugs forum will be at CRC’S Performing Arts Centre from 7pm-8.30pm on August 6. Details: 9743 6522

Funds delight for Djerriwarrh A funding boost will mean better equipment and more training for aged-care staff in Bacchus Marsh, according to Djerriwarrh Health Services. Health services across the state will share in close to $6 million of new grants to be rolled out this month. Acting chief executive David Grace welcomed the news that Djerriwarrh’s Grant Lodge would receive assistance. “Many residents of Grant Lodge have special needs that require specialist equipment to manage well,” he said. “Specialist equipment used here includes electronic beds, lifting equipment and pressure-relieving mattresses. “Over time we are seeing the needs of our residents change. Dementia is a significant issue for many of our residents … we aim to ensure that our staff have the most current training in helping residents with dementia and other agedcare issues.” Grant Lodge has qualified doctors, nurses, physiotherapists and diversional therapists who provide 24-hour care. Mr Grace said Grant Lodge had a reputation for providing the best care. “Nursing and other health professional training programs are an important part of ensuring that the health service continues to provide a high standard of care into the future,” he said.

Dogs plan prompts rezoning bid By Sumeyya Ilanbey Melton council is seeking amendments to its planning scheme following a Victorian Civil Administrative Tribunal decision that gave Exford home owners approval to keep, and train, up to 50 greyhounds on its property. In handing down his decision last month, VCAT member Michael Nelthorpe said there were no specific council policies “relating to the keeping, breeding and training of dogs”. The council hopes to rezone the outer southern parts of the municipality to ‘green

wedge A zone’, which would recognise and protect the amenity of existing rural areas. Earlier this year, Exford couple John Barbara and Andrea Chapple took the council to VCAT, seeking a planning permit to train greyhounds at their property. Melton planning services manager Bob Baggio said the council denied the applicants a permit, citing noise and amenity issues. “The proposal is considered … incompatible with the rural residential surroundings and will result in an unreasonable impact on the amenity of the area,” he said.

“And the proposal does not fully comply with the Environment Protection Authority noise guidelines in relation to dog breeding/ animal boarding, given that the use is within a 500-metre buffer of a number of surrounding dwellings.” Mr Baggio said amending the planning scheme would enable the council and VCAT to consider amenity issues when deciding on a planning proposal. The council would work with Wyndham council to develop the green wedge management plan for this area, and it hoped to prepare the plan in the next financial

year. Six people objected to the planning application, complaining about the level and frequency of noise. “I consider that this level of noise is acceptable in this area, given the policy and zoning framework does not anticipate premium-level residential amenity,” Mr Nelthorpe said. “Notwithstanding this, I am satisfied the proposed attenuation measures will substantially lessen the volume of noise emanating from the site.” Mr Barbara and Ms Chapple said they did not want to speak to the media.

Festival bears fruit Organisers of the Strawberries and Cherries Weekend at Bacchus Marsh hope a tourism grant will help the festival flourish. Last year, more than 17,000 visitors turned out for the November weekend. With the help of a $4000 grant to be used for staging and marketing, organisers are hoping this year will be bigger and sweeter. The grant was one of 19 given to country locations where small-scale events engage communities and attract day-trippers and overnight visitors. Bacchus Marsh Tourism Association chairman David Durham said the “first fruits of spring” weekend was hugely important for tourism in the region. “Tourism Victoria has been really good to us and the festival is really growing,” he said. “This type of funding keeps the festivals going. Without it, festivals like this one get lost.

“We’re in the planning stages at the moment and there’s a lot of work to be done getting live music, stalls and entertainment organised.” The weekend celebrates the arrival of the first spring crops, with fresh produce available for purchase as well as ‘pick your own’ activities. Melton MP Don Nardella said the Bacchus Marsh Strawberries and Cherries Weekend is a big drawcard for the area. “The festival is an eagerly anticipated event on the Bacchus Marsh calendar,” he said. “Events like these keep our local economy strong. They bring visitors to our region, keeping our motels, shops and cafes busy – and that means jobs.” Tourism and Major Events minister John Eren said regional Victoria’s events calendar plays a crucial role in keeping the state’s $10.9 billion regional economy healthy.

Dumpers in council’s sights By Esther Lauaki Dumping garbage instead of binning it wastes time and money, and damages the environment. That’s the message Melton council leads with in a new campaign, now under way, to stamp out illegal dumping. The campaign, modelled on a successful program that runs in Wyndham, focuses on education, infrastructure and enforcement to promote behavioural change in the community and reduce littering. Melton mayor Sophie Ramsey believes the

two councils can work better together to stop illegal dumping and encourage responsible waste management, with help from their communities. “Council has recognised the need for a collaborative approach to tackle illegal dumping and littering across multiple municipalities and recognises that offenders don’t recognise municipal borders,” Cr Ramsey said. “Illegal dumping consists of waste that’s inappropriately discarded in a public place. It includes household waste disposed of on a roadside or materials placed in front of a charity store.”

The Dumping is Damaging campaign targets suburbs where illegal dumping is a common problem and aims to teach residents how to dispose of waste safely and legally. Cr Ramsey is asking residents to report offenders to the council if they witness illegal dumping, recording the location, date, time and car registration, where possible. She said anyone who finds dumped rubbish should not disturb it or remove any papers or documents in it. Disturbed litter may render it inadmissible as evidence in court. Incidents reported to the council are documented, investigated and, where possible,

fines and court orders are issued against perpetrators. The council has issued a fast facts list of why dumping is such a problem: • Dumped rubbish is unsightly and makes neighbourhoods dirty, appear uncared for and unsafe; • It enters waterways, causing damage to plants and animals, and can be harmful to people’s health, especially if it contains dangerous chemicals, asbestos or other poisons; and • Dumping costs home owners hundreds of thousands of dollars each year to clean up.

Veterans remembered Peter Burquest is humble in the way most veterans are … as though they haven’t put their lives on the line for their country. The Caroline Springs resident was among 20 veterans recognised last week at a celebration and ceremony officiated by Gorton MP Brendan O’Connor. “The 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing has sharpened Australia’s focus on all of our veterans,” Mr O’Connor said. He presented certificates to veterans, and relatives of the veterans, who had served in World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the Indonesian confrontation, the war in Afghanistan and in peacetime operations in Timor Leste. “I was honoured to present these certificates of appreciation on behalf of our grateful nation,” Mr O’Connor said. Mr Burquest, who is president of Caroline Springs RSL, said even though he appreciated

the recognition, he described it as “no big deal”. “We served the country – or whatever we did,” he said. “We did what was necessary at the time. I think we deserve to be recognised, but to me, the medals mean more than anything else.” Mr Burquest served with the 1st battalion in Vietnam from 1968 to 1969 and, even though he believes wars are never the answer, “at the time, it’s instilled in you; it’s necessary”. “But joining the army taught me respect and respect for other people. And right now, we have a very good association with the Vietnamese people,” Mr Burquest said Sumeyya Ilanbey Caroline Springs RSL president and Vietnam War veteran Peter Burquest. (Shawn Smits)

Classy club for India’s finest G

inger Club is earning itself a reputation in Melton for superb Indian cuisine and top-notch service. The Age Good Food Guide refers to it as, “some of the best Indian food in town”, and it seems everyone agrees. Owner Rajesh Wahi, a Delhi native, has a wealth of experience working in India, the United Kingdom and New Zealand … and now Carlton and Fitzroy. “I’ve been in the restaurant game for many years, so I know what diners want and use my global experience to deliver that,” Rajesh says. It’s this experience that brings the big names to Ginger Club, with Rajesh’s dishes requested by the Indian and West Indies cricket teams, on four international tours, and the Australian Lacrosse team. “They would ring me, so I would go to the MCG loaded up with curries, then hang out with the players in the dressing room and watch the match,” Rajesh says. “Our regular local customer base is growing, and we respect and appreciate our customers, which is what brings them back again and again.” Serving traditional Indian food, including buffet lunches on Fridays and Saturdays, the family-oriented eatery is great for dining in or taking away. Ginger Club is also ideal for business functions and special occasions. And there is Bollywood entertainment every Sunday. “Our menu has vegetarian and gluten-free dishes available. We respect the ingredients we cook with, and create flavoursome meals for all. Our diners always have the best-quality food,” Rajesh says. Ginger Club’s clay oven from India is used to cook delicious tandoori chicken,

among other things. For an entrée, try the tawa lamb or chicken – boneless pieces of meat marinated in yoghurt and spices, and served with mint sauce. Or how about fish amritsari – diced fish marinated in ginger, garlic and spices … there are plenty of tasty treats cooked in the tandoor to make mouthwatering mains.

These include seekh kebab – minced lamb blended with a secret selection of herbs and spices, skewered and roasted. Or tandoori prawns, or fresh prawns marinated overnight in yoghurt, ginger, garlic and ground herbs, then smoked over charcoal.

Bacchus Marsh’s heart of arts E

njoying music and the freedom of movement through dancing and acting has no age restrictions. And Performing Arts Headquarters (PAHQ) in Bacchus Marsh prides itself on providing music, dance and drama lessons that are both fun and educational. From two-year-olds to 102 – everyone can enjoy learning an instrument, dancing and acting. Directors JohnPaul and Mai Pyin built PAHQ on the belief that acting, singing, dancing and playing music promote cultural awareness, a sense of community, creativity and physical and mental wellbeing. Located in the heart of Bacchus Marsh, PAHQ has experienced teachers coaching an array of classes. “The staff possess a true gift and passion for teaching, in addition to being professional musicians, actors and dancers,” says PAHQ manager and artist Chrissy Button. According to JohnPaul, PAHQ even has private teachers in the area coming to it for weekly lessons. JohnPaul and Mai Pyin understand that lessons can be expensive, and so PAHQ offers affordably-priced classes. “When I was young I didn’t have a lot of spare money – I only started lessons in year 10 and began paying for my own lessons in year 11, once I had my first job,” says Mai Pyin. While PAHQ encourages students to participate in performances and exams they are not pushed to do so. Chrissy says teachers and staff pride themselves on knowing each student individually and catering to their specific needs. “Our staff work tirelessly to bring out

Last year, PAHQ students performed at the Cooper’s Malthouse Theatre in Southbank, which JohnPaul says was a highlight. “We were thrilled to realise our dream of holding PAHQ’s annual showcase at a professional Melbourne theatre,” he says.

Expo keeps seniors on the road

(Damjan Janevski)

he Senior Drivers Expo is designed to keep older drivers safer on the roads for longer. The RoadSafe Westgate Community Road Safety Council holds the expo in Altona four times a year, and it’s open to retirees or people thinking about retirement. The next expo, at Hobsons Bay Civic Centre on Saturday, August 15, will give senior drivers the chance to have free, confidential, one-on-one sessions with registered driving instructors who, among other things, will explain some of the consequences of bad driving habits. “We can all be better drivers with a few simple things, like keeping up with new road laws, ensuring our health is as good as it can be, getting rid of bad driving habits and keeping our cars in good condition,” says Jim Giddings, the chairman of RoadSafe Westgate. The expo will provide drivers with a free and confidential once-over of their vehicle, and there will be professional advice from VicRoads roadworthy officers and experts on proper tyre care. As well, participants will get the latest information on updates to Victoria’s road laws. Drivers will also be informed of what medicines may inhibit safe and proper driving technique. “There will be the opportunity to ask highway patrol officers questions and everyone will receive a free senior driver’s expo pack,” Jim says. “This will include a reusable carry bag, a senior driver’s handbook, a book on the rules and responsibilities of driving and other relevant information.”

So if you’re an older driver and you want to ensure you remain one, make a booking now and keep up to date with what’s happening on Vctoria’s roads. To secure a place or for further

information, call Leigh on 9315 9464. Time: 9.45am to 2.30pm What to bring: Your car, a notebook and pen. The expo is FREE

SPORT Murphy calls time on two-year run as Melton coach Brad Murphy will stand down as Melton coach at the end of the Ballarat Football League season, claiming he doesn’t have the full support of the club. Murphy came to the decision last week that this season would be his last after two years at the Bloods. While disappointed to be leaving the club, he said he felt he didn’t have the full support of Melton’s committee. “It will be coming to an end at the end of the season,” Murphy said. “It is a little bit disappointing but that is the way it is. I will move on and try and find another job.

“Ultimately for me to work in an environment I want to have 100 per cent support.” Murphy added some blowout results had also made it difficult to remain in the top job. Melton lost its first two games of July by more than 100 points, going down to North Ballarat City by 119 and Lake Wendouree by 125. As a result, the Bloods are in eighth place on the BFL ladder. “The 100-point losses have also made me question myself a little bit as to whether I do have the playing group’s support,” Murphy said. “I have been told by the players I do have their support.

“I think the club is heading in the right direction. There is just some other stuff they need to sort out before they become the powerhouse they once used to be.” Murphy will coach out the rest of the season. He led Melton to a 70-point win against local rival Melton South on Saturday, 22.16 (148) 11.12 (78). The Bloods have a soft run coming up, with competition strugglers Sebastopol and Ballarat as their next two opponents. “I think the next four out of five games are really winnable for us,” Murphy said. “I’d like to finish the season on a good note and help the club win a few more games.

“We are in a pretty good position to finish off the season on a high.” The Bloods will start the search for a new coach immediately. In a statement released on Friday, Melton thanked Murphy for his hard work. “Brad has contributed significantly at the MFNC as both an outstanding player, winning the 2014 best and fairest in his first season as a player/coach, and by also providing a professional approach, demanding high standards and commitment from his group.” Liam Twomey

New Eagle flies in AFL By Liam Twomey Liam Duggan’s life changed forever on AFL draft night last year. The Bacchus Marsh junior found out he would be moving more than 3000 kilometres away to Perth after being selected by the West Coast Eagles at pick 11 in the National Draft. After working for years to break into the AFL, Duggan knew his real football journey was only just beginning. The teenager went to his new surroundings intently focused on making sure he put his best foot forward. His attitude and effort wasn’t lost on his new coaches, who were instantly impressed with what they saw. Under the bright lights at Domain Stadium, Duggan made his AFL debut on a Friday night smashing of Carlton in round two. “The feeling was probably better than being drafted. It felt like it was all worth it,” Duggan said. “You work so hard to try and get drafted and to get a game. You have moved out of home and playing at the top level, it really helped me settle in as well. “It is something I will never forget.” Duggan has given Eagles fans every indication that they have got themselves a special talent throughout his first season. After starting as the substitute in his first three matches, the 18-year-old exploded with 25 disposals against Brisbane in his first full game. A 23-possession effort against St Kilda three weeks later had Eagles fans campaigning for the midfielder to get a rising star nomination. “Once you’re in the senior side you don’t want to just hang around for a couple of games and then be back out of there again,” Duggan said. “I was happy and a little bit surprised that I was able to stay in there and then contribute. “I think it is important to be able to contribute. The boys start to back you in a little bit more.” Duggan has had the ideal mentor since arriving at the Eagles, working side by side with premiership player Adam Selwood. Selwood played 187 games for the Eagles across his career before joining the club’s development coaching staff. “We sit down and talk about goals that we want to achieve,” Duggan said. “The trap you can fall into is that you can get a bit complacent because you think you have made it at the top level and you can sort of go through the motions. “Adam makes it pretty important that I keep trying to improve and better myself.” While Duggan always had impeccable timing throughout his time as a junior with the Western Jets, he has maintained the habit since arriving at the Eagles. He has joined the club at the best possible time with West Coast looking every bit like a premiership contender, sitting in second spot

on the ladder, having lost just three games for the year. “We are enjoying our form at the moment, that’s for sure,” he said before Saturday afternoon’s win against Collingwood. “We won 11 games last year and missed out on finals. We just really wanted to improve on last year’s results.

“We have got to that 11 wins but our work ethic certainly isn’t going to stop and we aren’t going to be happy with just 11 wins.” Regardless of what happens on the field for the rest of his year, Duggan is laying the foundations for a brilliant career out west. Any initial nerves about moving to the other side of the country are gone.

“It was a bit daunting right at the start. Your future was really decided for you in a split second,” he said. “The club has been really good and they still are in terms of making sure that we are settled in over here. I’ve been here for about seven or eight months now and I am really enjoying it. “I love being here and I love the club.” 55 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ JULY 21, 2015

Melton ready to fight By Liam Twomey Anything is possible for Melton heading into the final round of the men’s division 1 Big V Basketball season. After being locked inside the four for the entire season and having looked like a title contender at stages, the Thoroughbreds can finish as high as second on the ladder with a win against Sunbury this week. A loss and Melton could be looking at an away elimination final. Melton goes into its match against the Jets full of confidence after a fighting win against Geelong on Saturday night. But it was a round 16 loss to Casey that has head coach Julie McCallum bullish about her side’s prospects moving forward. The Thoroughbreds delivered the league-leading Cavaliers all they could handle before losing in overtime. “Casey is certainly my pick to take out the tournament,” McCallum said. “We took it right up to the top team in the league and we played really well. “We had a couple of moments in the first two minutes of overtime that let us down a little bit. “Other than that, it was probably the best game we have played all season. “If we played like that, we would beat anybody. It is the inconsistency that lets us down.” Leading the charge for Melton has been import Ivan Harris, who has done more than find his feet at the club. Following a mid-season shooting slump, Harris is averaging 28 points across his past four matches. A highlight of those were his 26 points against Altona in 24 minutes.

McCallum said Harris had made some adjustments to his game that were earning rewards. “We have spent a lot of time with Ivan, getting him to play a different role to what he is used to,” she said. “He wasn’t shooting the ball all that well so we have been working with him to try and get him to play much more aggressively and inside the paint. “That is starting to work really well and I think he can see that, too.”

Not much has gone right for Melton Centrals this Riddell District Netball League season. After losing a number of key players in the off-season, the Centrals were decimated by injuries in early rounds, and the usually dominant outfit found itself in unfamiliar territory towards the bottom of the ladder. At the time, head coach Randy Pereira was hopeful his side would be able to show enough fight to contend for a finals spot in the league’s top six. However, in recent weeks the Centrals proved just how hard it is to keep a good club down. Talk of a top-six finish has made way for plans for a premiership assault, after Melton won four of its past five matches. Pereira now has his sights locked on the top three. “I think we are still a shot to finish that high, if we can hang in there,” he said. “It is a matter of having everyone available each week.” The constant changing of line-ups highlights the Centrals’ versatility. Known as one of the best wing attacks in the league, Tran Truong has stepped into a shooting role in recent weeks, and has more than held her own. Her midcourt position has been taken by Sara Tangaroa. The Centrals are hopeful shooter Monika Dimovski will be back for finals so the starting seven can return to their normal rotation.

We took it right up to the top team … we played - Julie McCallum really well

’’

Also impressive for Melton has been Jeff Crowe who is leading the league in both total assists and average assists per game. Crowe has also proved a formidable scorer, reaching double figures in 17 of his 20 matches this season. Melton will have star big man Cameron McCallum for its final home and away match but his finals availability will depend on his commitments to the Melton Football Club. McCallum plays in the forward line for the Bloods.

To cruise or not to cruise Advances in automotive technology have given drivers an array of new safety and convenience features. But are they all an improvement? Road safety blog ArriveAlive.com looks at the pros and cons of cruise control. The pros: • Provides drivers with higher levels of comfort and convenience. • When driving long distances, cruise control alleviates strain on the driver’s right leg. • Maintaining a certain speed saves fuel. • Cruise control prevents drivers from speeding. The cons: • Entering a corner at a set speed can be dangerous. • Braking takes longer to employ. Statistics show accidents caused by delayed braking can be blamed on cruise control. • Using cruise control in wet weather conditions can affect a driver’s control of the vehicle. • Driver alertness may be negatively affected. ArriveAlive.com concludes that cruise control is “designed for ideal road conditions”. It should not be used in heavy traffic driving, city driving, winding, slippery or unsealed roads.” Eleanor Tabone

MOTOR Off-roader handy in city traffic The Holden Colorado 7 has been upgraded to match on the street its outstanding off-road capability. This is most evident in the top-of-the-range Colorado 7 LTZ diesel automatic, which goes to market at $50,990 plus on-road costs. With its contemporary twin grille with mesh inserts, and chrome surrounds, the Colorado 7 LTZ has rugged looks to match its off-road ability. But with the latest in projector lighting up front, chrome power fold mirrors and door handles, fog lamp surrounds and window detailing, it’s not out of place among the latest automotive city slickers. Colorado LTZ models exude an air of luxury inside the cabin, with additions including heated leather-trim seats (optional on Colorado LTZ Crew Cab). Enhanced surroundings come via an upgraded instrument panel, centre console and soft-touch door trims and armrest, while the centre stack and steering wheel trims are now a premium piano black. Through Holden’s MyLink, drivers can connect to Bluetooth and access apps keeping them tuned into music, news and navigation. At first glance there appears to be no satellite navigation via the 7-inch touch screen. But on closer inspection, Colorado owners can access a navigation app called BringGo. Embedded apps include Pandora, Stitcher and TuneIn, allowing owners to create their own personal stations.

HOLDEN COLORADO 7

Under the bonnet, the 2.8-litre Duramax 2 diesel engine offers more power and torque than the previous version. It’s combined with a six-speed automatic transmission. Fuel economy remains the

same, or is slightly better, than across the range of SUVs and trucks. Active Select allows the driver to shift gears manually via the centre console-mounted gear lever. Chassis control systems such as trailer

sway control, hill start assist and descent control give the driver confidence in difficult situations on and off road. The more refined MY15 Colorado 7 maintains a five-star ANCAP safety rating, with front driver and passenger airbags and full-length curtain airbags, the latter extending to the third row. Electronic stability control, ABS anti-lock braking with electronic brake force distribution and hydraulic brake assist are complemented by rear park assist and a reversing camera, making the wagon one of the safest of its kind. Off the mark, the Colorado 7 doesn’t set the pulse racing, but once up to speed the big SUV is in no danger of being left behind in town or country traffic. Grabbing the gear lever and taking charge of shifts adds little to the driving experience. In 50 kilometres of urban action, the Colorado 7 diesel consumption ranged between 13 and 15 litres per 100 kilometres. Over a similar distance on the motorway, the figure floated between 5 and 6 litres per 100 kilometres – this is the consummate cruiser. The “7” in the Colorado’s name refers to its seven-seat capability. Seating arrangements include a second row 60:40 three-seat bench and 50:50 separate seats in the third row. All seats are on the firm side and could wear out their welcome on a long run. Holden has successfully done what it set out to do – add improvements to its Colorado 7 SUV that smooth out facets of its off-road ruggedness and broaden its appeal by making it more family-friendly.

Auto sport with manual magic By David Bonnici Automatic sports cars were always an oxymoron. But things have changed a lot, with smoother transmissions, more gears and the semi-manual shifting through the stick or paddles. Still, I’m not usually a fan of clutch-less manual driving. You don’t get the same excitement from standing start, nor do you feel the revs like you do in a full manual, meaning you have to constantly refer to the tacho instead of the road, which isn’t a great idea on mountain roads. The Toyota 86 GTS automatic is one exception. I’ve driven the manual version and absolutely loved it and, after initial misgivings, I had a ball in this, too. Its throaty sound and the proximity of your derriere to the ground means you get a great feel of what the car is doing, which translates to more control when you flick it to manual mode. Using the steering wheel paddles is heaps of fun and makes this little car feel like a go-kart without the bone-shattering ride and nauseating two-stroke fumes. Driving it in automatic requires careful footwork on the accelerator if you want the transmission to keep up – which almost needs as much skill as using a clutch. As with the Toyota 86 GTS manual, a smile appeared on my face every time I approached a bend, with the sensation of speed amplified, even at lowish speeds, by being so low to the ground. As it did with the Celica in the 1980s, Toyota has cracked it for an affordable sports car that

looks great and drives even better. With manual licences going the way of our car industry, this automatic version, priced at $42,925 drive away (about $2500 more than the manual) spreads the love even further. Inside, the ‘cockpit’ is kept relatively basic to keep the emphasis on driving. Performance information is confined to the gauge cluster, making it easy to read at a glance .

I like how the speed is also displayed as a digital reading in the rev counter. It isn’t free of creature comforts. It has duel zone air-conditioning controls and a small touch screen with the usual Bluetooth phone/ MP3 player connectivity, navigation and voice control. The GTS model also has a reverse camera, a handy option in a car this low, although the rear vision is surprisingly good.

One thing I’d like to have seen was audio controls on the steering wheel. The front seats in this thing are fantastic. They support your body through the g-forces caused by the 86’s curve-hugging drive without restricting your arms. The two-litre four-cylinder engine is sluggish when overtaking around 100 km/h in sixth, but if you put it into fifth it takes off like a rocket.
