Market gets thumbs up By Lexi Cottee After more than a decade in the planning, Melbourne’s Wholesale Food Market began trading at its new Epping home for the first time last week. About 4000 traders, growers and their staff filled the cavernous space with fruit and vegetables last week ready for Thursday’s opening day of trade at the new 70-hectare site on Cooper Street. Despite setbacks and many outspoken reservations about moving from West Melbourne, where the market operated from

1969, most wholesalers Star Weekly spoke to were impressed with their new $600 million trading floor. Some had expressed concerns about a lack of unallocated parking. But Charlie Caputo, of Silvan-based flower merchant M & S Sorace, said he had faith in the Melbourne Market Authority to fix their gripes. “The market is nicer, the set-up is nicer and the hiccups, like parking, will be sorted out in time,” he said. Despite the new site being almost double the size of the West Melbourne market, growers have been given a smaller trading floor.

Some traders felt their initial concerns about a lack of space were not alleviated in their first week of trade. Long-time grower Louis Koroneos, of family-owned Keilor Fresh Produce, said his business has been allocated fewer stalls than they had at West Melbourne. “They have only given us two stalls here; they want to cheat all the farmers,” he said. Melbourne Market Authority chairman Stephen McArthur said the growers’ floor was smaller now because many market gardeners were expanding and tended to consign their goods to wholesalers.

“There were a few nerves about the move and that was understandable. “But the regular comment I get is that it’s [the market] lighter, safer and more efficient,” he said. Mr McArthur said the market would be a major trading hub for decades to come. The state government first announced it would build a new market at Epping in 2004. The move to the north, close to the airport, was designed to help growers and exporters supply overseas markets and shorten the commute to the state’s food bowl in the north of Victoria.

Roo toll rises with new etstates By Lexi Cottee Road kill is an increasingly common sight on Whittlesea roads with Australia’s iconic fauna dying at a higher rate than ever. The latest RACV Insurance claims data reveals a 16 per cent increase in cars hitting an animal in Whittlesea last year compared to the year before – up from 154 in 2013 to 179. The insurance provider has labelled it the “highest-risk area” for collisions with animals in Melbourne’s north. Wildlife Victoria chief executive Karen

Masson described the statistics as “distressing”, and said the charity organisation faced an uphill battle to ensure kangaroos were not landlocked by new housing developments. She said the wildlife rescue service has been trying to co-ordinate a plan with councils and the state government for the past three years, but “common species” of wildlife did not rate highly on official priority lists and no progress had been made. Ms Masson attributes the spike in injured wildlife last year to the completion of a number of housing developments in the area.

Wildlife Victoria statistics show that volunteers responded to almost 1120 injured kangaroos in Whittlesea in the 2014-15 financial year. “This is both a public health issue and a wildlife welfare issue, which Wildlife Victoria is left to deal with on a daily basis, including the growing direct cost of darting many of these animals to enable their safe recovery from dangerous environs,” Ms Masson said. The charity recently approached developer AV Jennings to help work out a solution. She said the developer was keen to help – unlike

Whittlesea council, which she said had been reluctant to meet with Wildlife Victoria. “The only solution here is for us all to work together,” Ms Masson said. Whittlesea council’s local laws manager, Wayne Bullock, said council rangers were not trained to care for injured wildlife. “Wild animals become easily stressed and need to be treated by an expert, such as a vet or wildlife carer,” he said. The federal agriculture department website cites state and territory governments as being responsible for animal protection and welfare.

Lanterns add glow to a warm spirit When the sun dips behind Mount Macedon on Sunday night, a procession of lit lanterns will make its way around a dimly lit Whittlesea showgrounds. It’s the fifth time that people affected by the Black Saturday bushfires and other residents have come together to commemorate the importance of strong, close-knit communities. More than 600 lanterns have been made at primary schools and artist-led workshops in recent months, especially for the procession. Some have been crafted into the shape of a

house to hone in on this year’s theme: ‘Echoes of home’. Artist and workshop teacher Lee McGill said this year’s theme explored the concept of a home. “What makes a home and how you welcome people into your home,” she said. “People have made individual houses, but when they’re put together it’s a community.” Ms McGill and her family lost their Flowerdale home in the devastating 2009 fires and have since moved to Whittlesea. She’s been involved in the lantern parade since its

inception in 2010 and says it’s become more about welcoming new residents to the area than reflecting on the fires. “It’s more about bringing people together, growing stronger together.” Live music, food stalls and family activities will be at the showgrounds for the Into The Light Festival, from 3pm until 7.30pm on Sunday. For more information, email events@ whittlesea.vic.gov.au or call 9217 2174. Lexi Cottee

Whittlesea residents have the secondhighest rate of heart failure in the state. New Heart Foundation data maps heart attack and cardiac arrest rates in each local government area in Victoria, and new data shows that in the five years from 2008 until 2013, Whittlesea residents had the second-highest incidence of heart failure and the 12th-highest rate of heart attacks. The Victorian Heart Maps, released last week, reveal that the municipality’s heart health was worse than expected, the rate of heart failure being attributed to higher than average rates of obesity, and, for both men and women, the city having more smokers than the national average. The data reveals more than 40 per cent of the population does not exercise enough, the second-worst rate in the state. Fruit consumption is also low, but vegetable consumption is a little better than average. The heart maps have been collated using the past six years of Ambulance Victoria’s out-of-hospital cardiac arrest figures as well as hospitalisation rates for heart attack, for each council area. Hume has the third and fourth-highest rates of heart failure and cardiac arrest, respectively, in Victoria. Whittlesea mayor Ricky Kirkham said the Heart Foundation’s figures did not come as a surprise as many residents had a poor diet, exercised rarely, and smoked. He said the popular, free personal training-in-the park program would restart next month. The program uses professional fitness trainers to run outdoor gym sessions and lead park walks. Lexi Cottee

Wendy Dyckhoff’s life is not what it used to be. Three years ago, aged 53, this determined ‘battler’ enrolled in a general education course at Kangan Institute to study the basics of literacy and numeracy, alongside migrants and refugees for whom English was a second language. Education has been Ms Dyckhoff’s gateway to the outside world ever since. At the age of six, she had been taken from an abusive home, along with four siblings, and placed into institutional care. She was put in a family unit at Nazareth Girls House until her ninth birthday then sent to St Catherine’s orphanage at Geelong. While a ward of the state, she was physically and emotionally abused. “They don’t make you feel special in an orphanage,” she said. She now uses a crutch and has especially tailored shoes to help her walk. Doctors have traced the deformities to her time at the orphanage when she was forced to squeeze her feet into shoes far too small for a growing child. The importance of an education did not top the nuns’ priority list. Children were ordered to remain silent and perform cleaning chores when not in the classroom. Ms Dyckhoff attended secondary school but was never told she had been offered a scholarship to a more academic school. “They never told me about it so I thought I was dumb and stupid,” she said. She began a relationship with a young man when she was 16 and fell pregnant midway through year 11, which forced her to drop out of school. “We were never educated about contraception or the changes that happen to a woman’s body,” she said.

Worst El Nino on its way Bushfire season is expected to start early this summer due to a strengthening El Nino weather system and a decade of below-average rainfall. The Southern Australia Seasonal Outlook 2015-16, released by the Bushfire and Natural Hazards Co-operative Research Centre last week, indicates the south-east coast of Australia faces “above normal” fire potential in the 2015-16 summer. A strengthening El Nino over the Pacific Ocean, described as the strongest on record, and 10 years of significantly below-average rainfall across the east coast have created these underlying dry conditions, the report concludes. It found 2014 was Australia’s thirdwarmest year since records began. Hume CFA fire group officer Gerry Hauke said firefighters and Hume council staff had started warning property owners to tidy up. He urged residents to keep lawns mown, remove leaves from gutters, keep firewood away from houses, and check for cracks in brickwork that could lodge a burning ember. “Have an escape route,” he added. State emergency management commissioner Craig Lapsley said the seasonal outlook had prompted crisis agencies to start preparing early. He said high-risk areas included “the outskirts of Melbourne and where the bush interfaces with housing”. Lexi Cottee

VCAT nod to higher-density plan By Lexi Cottee The state’s planning tribunal has given the green light to a medium-density housing development on the former Lalor Park Primary School site, despite objections from neighbours and Whittlesea council. The primary school merged with Lalor West Primary to form Lalor Gardens Primary School in 2011. The Education Department eventually levelled the two-hectare Linoak Avenue site, selling it in July 2013 for almost $7 million. Earlier this year, the new owners lodged an application with Whittlesea council for a

permit to build 87 houses of two, three and four bedrooms, mostly attached dwelling or apartment-style units, about 23 per cent of which were proposed to be double storey. When the plans were advertised, the council received 23 objections and a petition with 42 signatures, most objecting to the proposal as an overdevelopment of the site. Whittlesea officers agreed and told the developers of their concerns. “The proposal fails to satisfy many of the objectives relating to neighbourhood character, dwelling density, building height, site coverage, landscaping and design detailing,” council

officers concluded in a February report. “It is considered the proposal will have a detrimental impact on the character of the neighbourhood and, accordingly, refusal of the application is recommended.” Councillors agreed, but VCAT member Philip Martin overrode both officers and elected representatives last month, saying the site presented too good an opportunity to address the lack of housing at Lalor. “The tribunal acknowledges that the local community may well have mixed feelings about the closure of the primary school. However, that decision has been made, the site

is now vacant and there is no doubt that this is an unusually large single-lot redevelopment opportunity for the housing stock of Lalor,” Mr Martin wrote in his VCAT decision. He stated as the area was already established, with good access to services and public transport, and zoned to allow for more intensive residential density in the future, the mix of single and double-storey houses was appropriate. North-east ward councillor Steven Kozmevski was disappointed with the tribunal outcome. “VCAT tends to favour the developers; it’s pretty disappointing,” he said.

Memories in the making A team of 15 Lalor Secondary College students will create an art piece based on memories of Thomastown. Considering they’ve only experienced life in the suburb for less than two decades, many have sought inspiration from long-term residents or hit the streets for ideas. Ahmed Muridi, 17, decided he would build a miniature house, typical of 1950s-style brick veneer homes, from plaster and icy pole sticks. The year 11 student recently joined the Baseline Art Group and has enjoyed having an outlet to explore his creativity. He hopes to study architecture after completing high school before returning to his extended family in Somalia to help re-establish the country of his heritage. His Somalian parents fled to Yemen before he was born. His father died when Ahmed was a child and

his mother moved her six children to Australia to start afresh when Ahmed was just five years old. “I want to go back and rebuild my country,” he said. Another student has created portraits of people she has seen in passing while walking along High Street. There are also pavement art and sculptures. The exhibition is on display until September 25 along High Street, Thomastown.

Comprehensive care. Uncompromising quality.

Anna Matina says traditional, middle-income families are increasingly in the queues of people needing help from the Epping-based Kildonan Uniting Care welfare service just to put a meal on the table. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The demographic of people seeking assistance is changing,â&#x20AC;? Ms Matina said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;People typically viewed as middle-income families are unable to make ends meet.â&#x20AC;? She said electricity and gas companies were telling the agency they also are dealing with growing numbers of two-income families applying for the state governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s hardship utility grants. The grants provide financial help to people struggling to pay utility bills so that their supplies arenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t cut off.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Many of these people have never asked for help before,â&#x20AC;? Ms Matina said. Many of the families seeking help lived in Lalor and Thomastown. Whittlesea council and the welfare service will hold a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Bring Your Bills Dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; at Lalor library on September 17, 10.30am-4.30pm, to help people struggling to keep their heads above water.

Home invader made death threat By Ben Cameron A northern suburbs man has been sentenced to three years’ jail for an armed home invasion in St Albans that left a woman begging for her life. Omar Khaoula, who went to school in Campbellfield and Roxburgh Park, pleaded guilty to five charges, including aggravated burglary, after breaking into a house in February this year and threatening the mother of his former boss. The County Court last month heard the 23-year-old began working as an apprentice

‘‘

She found herself begging for her life and fearing for her son’s life

’’

- Justice Elizabeth Pullen carpenter with Brendan Cefai in January this year. After the pair fell out, Khaoula broke into the house of Mr Cefai’s 56-year-old mother about 2.15pm on February 2.

Khaoula, who was wearing a balaclava and carrying a gun, confronted the woman. The court heard that when she screamed: “Don’t kill me, don’t kill me, please”, he replied: “I won’t kill you if you don’t do anything stupid”. Shaking the firearm in front of Mrs Cefai, he added: “Your son slept with my girlfriend and made her pregnant. I’m going to kill your son. Ring your son now, tell him the cops are here, so he comes and I will kill him.” Khaoula took the CCTV hard drive from the lounge room and left.

He was arrested the following morning. Justice Elizabeth Pullen said Khaoula’s actions had changed Mrs Cefai’s life forever. “The victim of your offending has suffered considerably,” she said. “She said, on February 2, 2015, her life changed forever. “She found herself begging for her life, and fearing for her son’s life. She now suffers with constant anxiety. “A noise or dog barking causes her to shake and her heart to palpitate.” Khaoula will be eligible for parole in 18 months.

Guest speakers from La Trobe University, the White Ribbon organisation, which works to prevent male violence against women, and the Salvation Army will speak to the years 10, 11 and 12 students this week about greater equality and respect between men and women, and the effect family violence has on a victim’s mental health. Mr Gallagher says he hopes the workshops and lectures will drive home the messages. “I want everyone to stand up and take responsibility, and promote positive behaviours at home, at school and in sporting clubs.” Lexi Cottee

Year 12 students Madeline Bux, Krystina Jovanovska, Liam Gallagher and Jancko Steenkamp. (Joe Mastroianni)

While there is greater awareness in 2015 of the difficulties faced by lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex teens, Mill Park Secondary College captain Liam Gallagher says it would still be difficult to “come out” while at school. “We’re a school of 1500 students and some students might have different views,” Mr Gallagher said last week. “We just want to stand up for what’s right.” Mr Gallagher and five other students on the school’s charitable events committee have organised a host of events for this week – its ‘advocacy week’ – when students speak out about issues affecting them and their communities. The three themes the committee chose to focus on are family violence, gender equality and sexual diversity. Whittlesea mayor Ricky Kirkham launched proceedings yesterday.

SPORT Jets prepare angle of attack for all-conquering Gorillas How do you beat Aberfeldie? That’s the question Greenvale will be pondering in the lead-up to Saturday’s Essendon District Football League premier division grand final. No team has had the answer to this question all year, with the Gorillas entering the grand final unbeaten in their 19 matches. The Jets came closest in round one, when they lost by only nine points. But when they met again two weeks ago, the Gorillas smashed the Jets by 50 points. Greenvale bounced back on Saturday beating Keilor 18.16 (124) – 10.7 (67) in the preliminary final to get another shot at Aberfeldie.

Jets coach Shannon Grant said it was pleasing to see the side bounce back the way it did. “We played really well and the way we responded from last week was the really good part,” he said. “We weren’t happy with our efforts last week and had some real honest conversations and reviews in the lead-up to the game.” Despite leading at every break, Grant said it wasn’t until late in the game that he felt his team was in control. “You always want high intensity and tough games ahead of grand finals and we got that,” he said. “We started well and it wasn’t until late

in the last quarter we felt the game was ours. We got tested and it was what we needed.” Nicholas Parthenopoulos kicked five goals for the Jets, while Nick Maric kicked three. “Everyone played their part and contributed,” Grant said. “It was one of the more evenly spread games we have had this season, which is one of the more pleasing things from the game.” Grant said the Jets had no injuries and selection would be difficult this week. “The reserves had a really good win and several of those players will put their hands up,” he said. “There may be one or two changes . . . it’ll be a tough selection.”

But how will Greenvale go about beating the Gorillas? “No one has been able to do that this year and it’s not going to be easy,” Grant said. “We have to make sure we are on and if we play with the same intent we did this week we should be in with a chance. “Everyone needs to play their role. I have a lot of confidence and am looking forward to the game. “We’re there in the grand final, so we’ve given ourselves a chance. But it will be tough.” Tara Murray

Craigieburn runs out of puff By Tara Murray It was a case of profound heartbreak for Craigieburn in the Essendon District Football League division 1 grand final. For three and half quarters the Eagles managed to keep the margin around the two-goal mark and looked set to launch a bid to overtake Essendon Doutta Stars late in the game. But as they struggled to kick consecutive goals, the Eagles instead found themselves fighting an uphill battle to get in front. As with the last two times the teams met, the Stars were able to run out the game better on their way to premiership glory. Kicking four goals to two in the last quarter, the Stars won 15.11 (106) - 11.16 (82). The Eagles’ day got off to a bad start with forward Nick Fletcher withdrawing before the game. He was replaced by Daniel Nolan, who hadn’t played a senior game in a month. Nothing separated the two teams in the first quarter, with key forwards – Jason and Cameron Cloke for the Eagles and the Stars’ Aaron Kite – proving a handful. Josh Young, who returned to the Eagles after suspension, kicked two first-quarter goals. In the second quarter, the Stars seemed to have the answers every time the Eagles attacked. Each Eagle goal would be quickly followed by a Stars’ six-pointer. Even when the Eagles had an extra man after Blair Cronin was given a yellow card, the Stars had all the answers. The Eagle forward line was dealt another blow when league-leading goalkicker Cameron Cloke injured a hamstring in the second quarter. Cloke remained on the field, playing out of the goal square for the rest of the quarter and third quarter before finishing the game on the bench. This left Jason Cloke as the focal point. Eagles coach Peter Bugden said losing Fletcher and Cameron Cloke didn’t help the cause. “It was a big loss, having Nick out of the side and then Cam did a hamstring … but that’s footy,” he said. “Cam played on deep and he toughed it out for a while, but it was disappointing not having him at full strength.” With his side having been within striking distance for much of the day, Bugden was left to rue a third quarter in which the Eagles had most of the play. They had several chances to take the lead but missed shots they should have nailed. When Jason Cloke scored the first goal of the last quarter it looked like the Eagles were about to pounce – but that’s where the charge ended. Any hopes went out the window when Christian McEarlain was sent from the field for a hit behind play. The Stars kicked late goals as they continued to run but the Eagles had run out of puff. “The third quarter, when we kicked 2.6, 16 NORTHERN STAR WEEKLY \ SEPTEMBER 8, 2015

didn’t help our cause today, but I thought our boys fought the game out well and tried hard all day,” Bugden said. “There has to be a winner and a loser … hopefully its burn deeps within the boys and we will be back bigger and stronger next year.” Jeremy Page was the best for the Eagles, providing a target around the ground and taking several crucial marks. Jason Cloke kicked five goals and Young kicked three. The Stars’ Shylo Smith showed why he is the dominant midfielder in the competition and was named best on ground. Despite the disappointing result, Craigieburn showed it was a long way ahead from 12 months earlier when the club narrowly avoided relegation. “Our under-18s were in the grand final, our reserves played finals and we were 24 points away from winning a grand final,” Bugden said. “We are in really good shape … the boys are going to have to fight hard for a place in the senior side next year, which is the way we like it.” The Eagles under-18 side lost to Doutta Stars in their grand final, going down 119-112.

Hume’s cup ride hits full stride By Tara Murray Hume City has an excellent opportunity to make it through to the last four of the FFA Cup having yet again avoided a clash with an A-League side. City, one of three non-A-League sides in the quarter-finals, has been drawn to play fellow Victorian National Premier League outfit Oakleigh Cannons at home on September 22 or 23. Hume City won through to the quarters with a 3-1 victory over Sydney Olympic at Broadmeadows Valley Stadium on Tuesday night. Daniel Clark opened the scoring for City in the 35th minute and Marcus Schroen made it 2-0 going into half-time. Olympic hit back through Dimitri Hatzimouratis in the 63th minute before Theo Markelis scored the sealer in the 83rd. City coach Louie Acevski said the game was much easier to watch than his side’s last-kick thriller against Brisbane Strikers in their round-of-32 match. “It’s a great feeling and I’m excited for the team,” Acevski said. “It’s tough going into games with not knowing much about our opponents, so I’m ecstatic with the win. “I would rather go 3-1 then a nerve-racking win in the last minute of extra time.” The City players were slow out of the blocks but quickly found their range. “Sydney played the best for the first 15 minutes and then we took over control of the

game,” Acevski said. “I just said to the boys to keep getting some shape in the midfield and the opportunities to score goals will come.” City didn’t have to wait long to find out its opponent in the next round with the draw happening straight after Tuesday night’s game. “A home match was what we were hoping for,” Acevski said, “We got that … it helps give you the best chance of making the semi-finals. Not playing an NPL side does increase the chances of making the semis.” In contrast with the situation that faced it in the past two rounds, City knows what to expect from the Cannons. “We have played them three times this year for a win, loss and draw,” Acevski said. “Anything can happen and we’ll prepare for a normal game. City didn’t have long to celebrate its win, as it faced Bentleigh Greens in the NPL semi-finals on Friday night. “We played on Friday night then 72 hours later had to play Sydney before another 48 hours and we’re playing again,” Acevski said. “If any team can do it, we can.” Hume City lost to Bentleigh Greens 2-0.

Eagles have landed in grand final Whittlesea’s hard work and determination has paid off in division 2 of the Northern Football League, with the Eagles one win away from a premiership. A year after being relegated, the Eagles have the chance to go straight back to division 1 by beating minor premier Lalor in Saturday’s grand final. After being a little inconsistent over the final home-and-away rounds of the season, the Eagles have hit form at the right time. They ended Fitzroy Stars’ season the previous weekend and saw off Hurstbridge 20.14 (134) - 14.15 (99) on Saturday. For Eagles coach Brad Dean, the grand final spot is reward for what the players have put in. “We took the form from last week’s game into this game,” he said after the win. “We haven’t been playing badly, but in rounds 16,

17 and 18 we were down on work rate and effort.” Dean put the win against Hurstbridge down to work rate. “We started well in the first 10-15 minutes and were three goals up,” he said. “They came back at us and scores were level at quarter-time but we kicked away late to lead at half-time. “The boys understood the challenge and the opportunity they had in front of them. “The work rate in the second half was as good as I’ve seen it in my two years as coach.” Joel Bramble, Scott McAuliffe and Chris Horman were the best in an even performance. Horman kicked five goals in a performance the Eagles didn’t see coming, with the forward in a moon boot until recently. Dean said the Eagles still had room to improve in the grand final.

“Andrew Fairchild and Matt Dornauf have been our most two consistent performers all year but they didn’t have much influence [on Saturday] and it was good to have other guys step up,” he said. “Andrew played a lot in the midfield and we all know he can play up forward, so we have things up our sleeve.” The Eagles are now focusing on the grand final at Preston City Oval and not what happens next year if they win. “We’re really confident,” Dean said. “It’s an opportunity for 22 boys to play in a premiership and we aren’t putting too much thought into what happens after that.” The Eagles have won all three matches against Lalor this year.

Flag joy for Thomastown Thomastown has tasted premiership success for the first time in the Northern Netball League. The club, which has been in the competition since 2010, was determined to win a premiership this year. It claimed the section 6 flag with a 28-23 win over North Heidelberg 4 on Friday night. Lauren Newstead was named best on court. In section 7, St Martins defeated the Heat 38-35 in the Heat’s first year in the competition. It was heartbreak for South Morang 3 in section 8 as it went down by two goals to West Ivanhoe in a thriller. West Ivanhoe won 34-32. Stef Symes was named best on court. Bundoora Comets 4 defeated Fitzroy Stars 4, 33-16 in section 9. Lauren Grimes was awarded best on court. It was preliminary final week in the other five sections. Bundoora Comets’ grand final hopes were dashed 62-39 by North Heidelberg in section 1, while Watsonia 1 won through to play South Morang 1 in section 2. Whittlesea had contrasting fortunes in sections 3 and 4. Whittlesea 2 will play St Marys in the section 3 grand final after beating North Heidelberg 2, 31-25. Whittlesea 3 is out of the finals after losing to Greensborough 3, 34-28 in section 4. Greensborough will play Lalor in the grand final and North Heidelberg 3 will play Hurstbridge 1 in the section 5 grand final. Tara Murray

Promotion eludes United

Epping takes in the grand final defeat. (Shawn Smits)

Kids bow to wiser heads By Tara Murray Epping’s young playing group will take the lessons learned in Saturday’s Northern Football League division 3 grand final loss into next year and the future. The Pingers had 12 players under 20, and that proved the difference against an experienced Reservoir side. The Mustangs’ wiser heads prevailed, and the 15.9 (99) - 10.10 (70) victory gave Reservoir its first premiership since 1984. A six-goal burst late in the second quarter put the Mustangs on top and from then on they were in control. Pingers football operations manager Stephen Petruccelle had nothing but praise for his side. “It was an even competition and it didn’t matter whether you finished first or fourth you could go deep into finals,” he said. 18 NORTHERN STAR WEEKLY \ SEPTEMBER 8, 2015

“We’re so proud of our team . . . we have probably 10 or 15 players with between 20 and 30 games of experience over the last two years. “Credit to Reservoir they came out well. They were very experienced and older and had wiser heads and bigger bodies.” After coming from 61 points down to beat Watsonia in the semi-finals, Petruccelle said the Pingers felt they could win the premiership. “The boys gave it a real crack, but it wasn’t good enough,” he said. Petruccelle praised the work of the defenders who stood up against the constant attacking forays from the Mustangs. “Shane Wood at centre half-back and Peter McMahon at full-back were sensational,” he said. “Mitch Henwood and Leigh Judd were also really good.”

Petruccelle also praised two others at the club and their efforts throughout the year and in the grand final. “Our co-captain Daniel Moore had his knee scraped three weeks ago and he worked hard and ticked all the boxes to play in the grand final,” he said. “He kicked four goals and I don’t know how he did it. “Long-time team manager Col Bartlett is sensational every week sitting on the bench. “He’s an absolute legend of the club and his encouragement of the younger players helps them heaps.” The loss means the Pingers will be in division 3 for another season after being relegated last season. “It’s only up from here,” Petruccelle said. “There’s so much potential for us to develop into a really good side.” More photos: www.starweekly.com.au

Whittlesea United’s promotion dreams have fallen agonisingly short in FFV state league 3 north-west. To secure second spot and promotion, United had to win its final match, against Darebin United, and hope Altona City lost to Lalor United. Whittlesea completed its part of the job, beating Darebin 3-2. But Altona City beat Lalor 2-0 to finish second on the ladder behind Hoppers Crossing, only goal difference ahead of Whittlesea. La Trobe University finished fifth, Upfield finished sixth and Lalor United was ninth. Bundoora United was another team which saw its promotion dreams dashed, this time in state league 4 north. A win against West Preston would have been enough for Bundoora United to finish second and get a shot at the promotion playoffs. But a 3-2 loss meant West Preston claimed second, three points clear of Bundoora United. In state league 5 north, Mill Park completed an undefeated season with 18 wins and three draws. They finished 14 points clear of Marcellin Old Collegians. Sporting Whittlesea and Hume United finished their state league 2 north-west seasons with wins. Sporting Whittlesea defeated Melbourne University 2-0, while Hume United won 1-0 against Geelong. Tara Murray

Cannons take what they can from a finals fizzer

The Calder Cannons have bowed out in the first week of the TAC Cup finals. The Cannons were blown out of the water in the first three quarters by the Eastern Ranges and found themselves trailing by 64 points at the last break. With nothing to lose, the Cannons fought on in the last quarter, kicking six goals in a row to reduce the margin to 27. The comeback fell short with the Cannons losing 17.8 (110) - 11.10 (76). Their coach, Andrew Johnston, said the result summed up where the club was at this season. “Eastern played really well and it’s a credit to them,” he said. “We were just too far behind. “I said to the boys at three-quarter-time to take the game on, there’s nothing to lose. I asked for the 18 and 19-years-old to step up and enjoy the last time they would play in a Cannons jumper.

“It’s unfortunate to lose, but that’s where we’re at this season; we’re the seventh to eighthbest club.” Johnston said a big last month in the season had taken a toll of the players. “The effort the past month had been massive as they didn’t want to finish the season poorly,” he said. “Playing on a big ground didn’t help either. I don’t question the effort that was put out there today.” The first-year coach said this year’s team had been an unknown quantity at the season’s start. “I didn’t know what they would be like and they didn’t know what I’d be like. “We would love to have finished higher on the ladder but … we played in one final, which is a positive outcome.” He said getting games into a number of 17-year-olds was a big positive. “Campbell Moorfield, Jack Reaper and

Hayden Blythe have been good players,” Johnston said. “Joel Bramble didn’t play today but he will become a more consistent player. Jackson McDonald is another one who will take things from this year.” Nick O’Kearney leads the list of players who could be drafted from the club. Last year, it had a record 10 players picked up in the national or rookie draft. “Hopefully, Hisham Kerbatieh gets a shot, and Callum Moore has special attributes,” Johnston said. “Tom Wallis’s leadership and power out of contests has improved so much in the past month – I hope Essendon look at him as a father-son pick. Bruno Laguda has had a pretty good year and doesn’t get the recognition he deserves, while Ben Allan has the ability to play at that level.” Tara Murray

Dream run, but no flag for Jags By Tara Murray Once it recovers from the pain of losing the Essendon District Football League division 2 grand final, Jacana Football Club will look back on the 2015 season as the start of a new chapter. The Jaguars, for so long the strugglers of the EDFL, have been the fairytale story of the season, not just in division 2 but for the whole competition. At the start of the 2013 season the club was broke, 200-point losses were the norm and there were no juniors to help the club move forward. The determined efforts of a few saw the team survive 2013 and last season saw the start of progress both on and off the field. And even though Jacana built on that momentum this season, no one expected the Jaguars to make finals, yet alone the grand final But the dream run came to an end on Saturday at the hands of minor premier Hadfield, which won 16.23 (119) - 8.14 (62). Not much separated the two teams in the first half, with the Jaguars benefiting from sloppy kicking for goal by the Hawks . . . at one point they had 2.12. For much of the first half, the Jaguars defenders were more like goalkeepers as they repelled several scoring attempts on the goal line. Big man Ferras Merhi kicked two goals and missed another late in the second quarter to give the Hawks a 16-point lead at half-time. The third quarter was the one which changed the game, the Hawks kicking eight goals to the Jaguars two. It was a bittersweet result for Jaguars coach Aaron Collins. “I’m so proud of them,” he said. “We’re not far off and we’ll go into next season upbeat and it’s only little things we have to work harder at.” Collins said the third quarter was a mixture of his team’s mistakes and pressure by the Hawks. “It was disappointing as it is normally our best quarter but, credit to them, they were really good,” he said. “We tried and tried but we couldn’t get the right opportunities and didn’t take them when we did. “The pressure and tackling were down and that’s credit to Haddy.” Collins, in his first year as senior coach, is already excited about next year. “Our backline has been superb all year and that’s what we pride ourselves on,” he said. “We’ll make sure we’re the number one tackling and pressure side next year. We’ll keep working on it and there’s not much we have to change. We’re a proud club now and we can hold our heads up high for once.”

Jaguars secretary Khan Sayers said the club was a winner even before Saturday’s match. Sayers was one of those determined few who stepped up in early 2013 to help save the club. “We knew there was still so much work to do for the club not to fall over [after surviving the 2013 season], so we just had to keep moving,” he said. “We developed a sponsorship strategy which detailed every business in the Broadmeadows community. “We were still speaking with potential sponsors right up until Christmas Eve and were straight back into it in the new year.” The club managed to secure sponsors and money was put into junior players. “Our senior team was always at its strongest when it was made up predominantly of Jacana juniors and that was our focus; getting back

players who had left to play at other clubs,” he said. “We did this by investing our money in the right areas and creating a positive culture. “The most pleasing thing for us was to see families back at the club and see the boys enjoying their footy after a couple of pretty tough years.” After surviving the hard years, it’s now about making sure the club isn’t in the same position again. “Our committee has been working on a club governance manual to ensure best practice can be passed on to our future administrators,” Sayers said. “It’s important our club continues to improve and there is a real opportunity for someone new to build on the foundations of the last few Chris Johnson and a teammate celebrate a goal. years. There are endless possibilities.” (Damian Visentini) 19 NORTHERN STAR WEEKLY \ SEPTEMBER 8, 2015
