Change pokie rules plea By Matt Crossman Health experts have called for drastic changes to rules for club-operated gaming venues following revelations that Sunbury pokies operators are listing items such as replacement of grease traps as benefiting the community. Latest Victorian Commission for Gambling and Liquor Regulation reports show that Sunbury’s three club-operated venues also lodged claims for things such as administration fees and cleaning and security expenses. Under current laws, clubs operating pokies pay a reduced rate of tax compared to hotels as long as they show 8.33 per cent of the venue’s poker machine revenue was spent on “approved community benefits”.

Approved benefits can include housing assistance for the disadvantaged and poverty relief and services for the prevention and treatment of problem gambling and drug and alcohol addiction. According to the commission, none of the Sunbury venues recorded any expenditure in those categories, although Sunbury Bowling Club listed $7166 for the provision of health care and $500 for ‘‘other philanthropic purposes’’. Monash University public health professor Charles Livingstone said that while the commission’s reports showed significant funds were directed to community sports facilities and activities, they remained deeply concerning.

Sunbury Community Health’s general manager of child, youth and family services, Marcus Bosch, said calls for reform were justified, with studies consistently showing most of the money raked in by pokies came from problem gamblers. ‘‘The majority of the clients of our gambling counselling service have a problem with poker machines,’’ he said. ‘‘The initial, most evident issue is obviously financial distress, but they often are also experiencing extreme emotional distress.” Managements of pokie venues Sunbury Football Social Club, Sunbury United Sporting Club and Sunbury Bowling Club did not respond to questions before deadline.

‘‘The reason they have this whole procedure in place is to legitimise the amount of money the clubs, but also pokies generally, rip out of communities,’’ he said. ‘‘Time after time, what we find is that twothirds, and in many cases more, of the claimed benefits are actually the running costs of the clubs. It’s airconditioning or capital works … a new TV. The rules need to be tightened and these loopholes closed.’’ Dr Livingstone said typical arguments that club-run pokies created many jobs and generated significant economic activity were ‘‘nonsense’’. ‘‘Poker machines are not a magic pudding,’’ he said. ‘‘What they do is take that money away from other businesses.’’

Sunbury bicycle theft ‘shocking’ By Matt Crossman Members of a Sunbury team that provides sports opportunities for disadvantaged people are reeling after the theft of four bicycles from a locked container in Gap Road. Reclink co-ordinator Brian Millett said the team was desperately trying to arrange replacement bikes so members could train for a triathlon in April. ‘‘It’s so very disappointing,’’ he said. ‘‘They were the perfect bikes for what we need. They were different sizes and heights. We had a

hybrid for the guys who can’t ride very well and some racers for those who could. You don’t like losing anything, but this really hurts.’’ The donated bikes, with a combined value of about $3000, were taken from the container behind Sunbury Baptist Church between 9pm and 11pm on January 30. Shovels, rakes and other items used by Reclink’s work-for-the-dole program were also stolen. The bikes included a white Scott hybrid, a grey Kona hybrid, a black Diamondback racer with Shimano 105 gearing, and an older white-and-blue racer.

‘‘

You don’t like losing anything, but this really - Brian Millett hurts

’’

‘‘We’d just used them for a triathlon on January 10,’’ Mr Millett said. ‘‘They were used in a six-week training block leading up to that. To steal them from these guys … it’s shocking.’’ Mr Millett said that while the triathlons entered by the Reclink team were ‘‘small

events’’, they were a major milestone in the lives of team members. ‘‘We have guys who had never swum before,” he said. “Even to turn up for it – it’s a significant thing in their life.’’ Anyone who can help with providing replacement bikes for the Reclink group is being asked to phone Mr Millett on 0425 759 706. A Sunbury police spokesman urged anyone with information about the theft to phone 9744 8111.

A community wind farm project, rejected by the former Liberal state government, is a step closer to being realised. Information about wind frequency and speeds will be collected over the next 12 months then used by the Woodend Integrated Sustainable Energy (WISE) group to prepare a business case for investment in three turbines about six kilometres south of the town. Wiring and anemometers were installed after a solid day spent digging through rock at the proposed site, deep within a pine forest managed by Hancock Victorian Plantations. WISE hopes the turbines will be able to power as many as 4000 homes within three to five years. Group spokesman Barry Mann said members were excited the project was taking shape after almost five years of delays caused by the former Liberal state government’s controversial wind farm bans. ‘‘The equipment will monitor speeds there … that will be our bankable info, which we will take to potential investors and the community,’’ he said. ‘‘We’re confident it’s the right site.’’ Mr Mann said a range of private and community investment options would be explored. Talks with a number of financial institutions and energy providers are ongoing. ‘‘Funding won’t be an issue,’’ he said. ‘‘It’s more a matter of how big we make it and what kind of partners and benefits we can get for the community.’’

Cost of Vietnam recalled The first Victorian national serviceman fatally wounded in Vietnam will be honoured when veterans from Central Highlands meet for a service at Fawkner cemetery on February 21. The midday service for Reservoir’s Leslie Farren will be one of 35 held across the state as Victorian Vietnam Veterans Association members pay tribute to the 98 Australians who died during the war. Central Highlands sub-branch president Ken Bryce said the gravesite commemoration would start a year of events to mark August’s 50th anniversary of the Battle of Long Tan.

‘‘This is the first time that simultaneous statewide commemorations of this type have been attempted,’’ Mr Bryce said. ‘‘We wanted to visit all of the gravesites where our mates are buried, to honour their service and show they are not forgotten. ‘‘Most of them died very young. They never had the chance to marry, have a family, to enjoy their grandchildren and to grow old, as we have.’’ Details: 0407 737 386 Matt Crossman

City slugged by copper thefts By Matt Crossman Hume council has slammed as ‘‘appalling’’ the theft of large amounts of copper wire from ratepayer-funded venues at Sunbury. Even as the council decried the theft of three tonnes of wire installed as part of long-awaited upgrades at Sunbury Recreation Reserve, thieves struck again last Thursday night, ripping a 30-metre electrical cable out of the ground at Learmonth Street Preschool.

The incident did not affect Friday kinder classes but added $5000 to an already extensive repair bill faced by the council. A similar incident took place at Eric Boardman Reserve overnight on January 30 when thieves removed $20,000 of cables that powered oval lights. Mayor Helen Patsikatheodorou said the thefts had cost the community dearly. ‘‘This is an appalling crime and cannot be tolerated,’’ she said.

‘‘I ask every resident of Hume to keep a close eye on anyone who loiters around our reserves in a suspicious manner.’’ Copper wire taken from Sunbury Recreation Reserve on January 11 was valued at $12,000 and cost the council $4000 to install. Cr Patsikatheodorou said thieves had gone to enormous lengths, breaking into a switchboard before yanking cables from the ground. ‘‘These individuals are lucky to be alive because they wouldn’t have known whether the electrical

cable was alive or not,’’ she said. ‘‘It’s one of the most foolish things you can imagine.’’ The council is part-way through a $1.75 million redevelopment of the recreation reserve’s McMahon Pavilion, which includes new changing, umpires’ and medical rooms. Cr Patsikatheodorou urged anyone with information about the thefts to contact the council or Crime Stoppers. Information to Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000

Steve Sawyer is preparing for the foundation’s annual Aussie Muscle Car Run from May 15-21.

Now two years cancer-free, he’s looking forward to joining hundreds of other drivers for the charity event, which will include visits to Winton Motor Raceway, Heathcote Park Raceway and South Coast Raceway in Portland. ‘‘It’s a cliche, but it does give you a whole new outlook,’’ Mr Sawyer said of his cancer experience. ‘‘Your priorities change.’’ Mr Sawyer will drive a 1967 Ford Mustang during the seven-day trip. Participants in this year’s run are challenged to raise $2000. To support Mr Sawyer, phone 0408 218 181. Matt Crossman

Growth spurt for recycled water By Matt Crossman The sprawling housing estates of Sunbury and Diggers Rest will tap into an extra four million litres of recycled water a day, once a $53 million wastewater plant upgrade is finished in early 2018. Water Minister Lisa Neville, who was in Sunbury on Monday to announce the start of the biggest project in Western Water’s history, said farmers, sports clubs and the area’s growing businesses would also benefit with extra water available during times of drought

and low rainfall. ‘‘It’s not just about how you manage the sewage, but actually about how you can utilise that to create better immunity in our community,’’ she said. ‘‘If you think back to the last drought we had, you had sporting ovals that weren’t green, you had businesses that struggled because they weren’t able to access the water. ‘‘We know how absolutely critical security of water is to business and economic growth but also how important water is to the social fabric of communities.’’ Ms Neville said the upgrade, which will

increase the volume of wastewater the plant is able to treat from 5.9 to 9.2 million litres a day, will also create more than 50 full and part-time jobs during construction. Western Water chairman Terry Larkins said the project would ensure the authority was ready for the challenges of massive population growth and climate change. ‘‘It’s impossible to go down the streets of Sunbury and Diggers Rest and not notice the changes that are ongoing,’’ he said. ‘‘New houses are going up, new businesses are opening, our schools and sporting clubs are

growing. This will allow us to produce more recycled water and, importantly, better-quality recycled water.” Mr Larkins said the project would also ensure better protection for Jacksons Creek and its biodiversity, while the upgrade project would stay within the footprint of the existing plant at Sunbury. Recycled water has been supplied to sports fields and producers, including grape and olive growers, since it was introduced in the 1980s. A community reference group has been involved in planning the new plant.

Sunbury residents can help revegetate garden beds outside the Sunbury library during a free Live Green workshop this Saturday. Community gardener Ray Redford will show people how to maintain fruit trees and will share advice about what to plant in February to withstand the change of seasons. There’ll be a free lunch and seedling giveaways. From 10am-noon, Saturday, 44 Macedon Street, Sunbury. Bookings essential: 9205 2473

Sebastian Pitruzzello, of Sunbury’s Pitruzzello Estate Olive Grove & Vineyard, gives us his advice on what to look for in an olive, and what is best to pair them with.

WIN 2 BOTTLES of WINE or OLIVE OIL of your choice!

“An olive’s colour indicates its ripeness; for example, green olives ripen and then become black olives. A general rule is, the darker the olive, the riper it was when it was harvested,” says Sebastian.

Drawn every Saturday night & Sunday lunch

“When buying olives, pick firm ones with a nice colour and texture, and also take note of their overall quality and where they have come from.” Don’t like green olives? Why not opt for a purple one? Sebastian says there are so many to choose from that everybody should be embracing olives.

Cellar & Café: Wed—Sun 9-3 Restaurant: Wed—Sun 10-3 Saturday evenings from 6pm

“The black olives are the kalamata, mission, nyon and nicoise. There are lots of green ones, such as volos, sevillano, cerignola, castelvetrano, picholine and gordal. Then there’s the ligurias, which are olive-coloured and gaetas, which are a purple-brown.”

“Black kalamata olives are best in salads and hot dishes, such as chicken cacciatore. Green olives go well when served in a green or potato salad. “And you can serve olives on pizzas, make them into a spread or add them to an antipasto platter,” says Sebastian. To get the best out of your olives and preserve their flavour, keep them in the fridge, soaking in the liquid they came in and loosely covered with plastic wrap, for up to 10 days. But never leave your olives in a sealed container.

Al fresco ‘just right’ for sunshine in a bottle Mama Bear and Papa Bear are best known for serving just-right porridge, but at eclectic Gisborne Peak Winery, it’s the wood-fired pizza ovens that bear these affectionate nicknames. Cellar door manager Barbara Nixon says doubling their oven capacity means visitors get to tuck into their pizzas faster in the alfresco dining area, which has also been snazzed up. “Food and wine just seem to taste better outdoors, and we wanted to enhance the whole experience for our visitors. We now have large shade sails, new decking and paving, and extra seating,” says Barbara.

Why does food & wine taste better outdoors? Just because it does.

“And, of course, the fabulous views across our vineyards and Macedon Ranges beyond add even more to the wining and dining experience.

Wood-fired pizzas are now served every day …

Which is why we have upgraded our al fresco area. Come and see for yourself.

“In fact, we’d go so far as to say that opening a bottle of our award-winning wine, which can be beautifully matched with a pizza, is like taking in Macedon Ranges’ sunshine from a bottle. But, even on a cloudy day, the views remain the same. The ambience of our place is always something special.”

Open 7-days a week in beautiful Gisborne South

The go-ahead winery, open to the public for the past 16 years, continues to expand its reach as a tourism hot-spot. Four eco-cottages provide accommodation with a difference, while teaching sessions about their wines have become drawcards for tourists and wine buffs alike.

Serving Macedon Ranges sunshine in a bottle. We now offer ‘wood-fired pizzas, baked brie and more EVERYDAY’ Light lunches daily.

“And we’re very proud to be able to provide employment for many locals, too,” says Barbara. “It’s really a two-way street: we support locals and they wonderfully support us by introducing friends and relatives to our unique winery.” Wood-fired pizzas are now served every day, as are light lunches and, of course, the unmissable estate-grown wines.

Huntington has been a landmark since 1910 and has all the graciousness of its era, with contemporary twists added in all the right places. The English gardens on the block of about 2.31 hectares are a spectacular accompaniment to the house, and a machinery shed, stables and two paddocks establish the property as a place for horses and pasturage (red volcanic soil). Four elegant living rooms – one the “long room” (floorboards, fireplace and painted ceiling boards) spanning the rear – are entertainment and family-friendly, and the kitchen is equipped with a dishwasher. There’s a separate study. Two of the four bedrooms have an en suite, while the main also has a study area. Ornate cornices, rosettes, painted dado panels and fireplaces are heritage pointers. Within two minutes of town, the property has an integrated double garage with three abutting utility rooms, a detached one-bedroom cottage and outstanding outdoor entertainment spaces.

This log cabin on about 9.7 hectares, about 2.02 hectares of which is cleared, will tempt people who connect to nature and rural life. The house is rich with rustic warmth, and has a great terracotta-tiled lounge-dining room under a pitched timber ceiling, with a wood heater and connection to a north-facing, enclosed verandah. Three of the four bedrooms have built-in wardrobes and share a modern bathroom; the main has walk-in wardrobe and an en suite, plus direct access to a spa built into an enclosed deck overlooking gardens. Timber exposed beams and ceilings, along with big windows, feature in all bedrooms. A creek, fruit trees, a vegie patch and brick barbecue are found down garden pathways, and pretty plantings make outdoors a treat. A large dam, two 22,000-litre water tanks, a bore, four-bay shed with attached rumpus room, a woodshed and small paddocks complete a pretty picture here.

Within a few minutes’ drive of Gisborne township, this property of about 4.2 hectares is all about country style, with an enormous rear paddock ready for a crop or for grazing.

now sports purple (the colour of luxury and power) as a decor accent. This right-royal shade appears firstly as new carpet in the entry foyer, flowing through timber double sliders into the lounge-dining room to the right. Another set of sliders ushers in the living hub, laid with Tassy oak floorboards and warmed by a Clean Air wood heater. The kitchen in here is classic black and white, with the purple glass splashback a dramatic highlight. There are plenty of white cupboards and drawers topped

with granite-look laminate, a Bosch underbench oven, 900mm gas cooktop and a dishwasher; a big window overlooks the backyard. The laundry, next to the kitchen, has enough space to serve as a hobby room, and comes fitted with a wall of closets. Two bedrooms off the entry foyer include the main with purple wall paint, quality tab curtains in white, a walk-in wardrobe and an en suite with a shower that has a sitting ledge. Two more bedrooms, at the opposite end of the house, have built-in wardrobes

and share a separate toilet and a fresh bathroom in aqua and white. The huge, fenced backyard is dotted with eucalypts and has a garden bed along the verandah. The aforementioned paddock is rimmed with large trees and there’s a dam right in the middle. Within cooee of the Calder Freeway, the property has evaporative cooling, ducted heating, a water tank and town water, and a double carport. Carole Levy

SPORT Defiant Sunbury United shuns the dreaded R-word Despite being on the bottom of the ladder and in danger of relegation, Sunbury United isn’t thinking the worst in the Gisborne and District Cricket Association’s McIntyre Cup. With less than two points separating the bottom four sides and with only three weeks left in the season, United coach Jeremy Newman knows his side can control only the task at hand. “We’re really not looking at relegation,” Newman said last week. “The side is on the improve and we don’t want to put more pressure on the boys by talking about relegation. We have to concentrate on

ourselves and stick with it and keep improving.” Newman said that being in the relegation fight hadn’t even crossed the mind of the reigning premiers at the start of the season, though they weren’t necessarily expecting another premiership, either. “There are lots of positives from this year even if the results don’t look great,” the coach said. “We’ve had 10 players make their first XI debut, which is really good. “I had a fair idea there would be at least five to six changes to the side. “Three players had knee surgery in the off-season and others have stepped back to

spend more time with their families.” Knowing it would take time for players to settle into the lineup, Newman is pleased with those who have stepped up. “Steve Fogarty is batting at number three and puts a lot of value on his wicket. “Jesse James is a young fast bowler who listens and wants to learn, and we’ve seen massive improvement over the season. “Harrison Knott, who’s been dropped back to the seconds, is scoring 50s and taking five-wicket hauls in the same games at that level. He’s benefited from playing firsts.” Meanwhile, United has a lot of work to do to

knock off Gisborne in the current round. After being bowled out for just 90, United needs to take early wickets on day two when Gisborne resumes at 3-39. “If we can get one or two early wickets we’ll be in with a chance,” Newman said. “We need to bowl tight, not leak too many runs.” Elsewhere, Riddell is 2-18 chasing Sunbury’s 147; Romsey is 0-2 in pursuit of Bacchus Marsh’s 237; and Woodend is 4-28 chasing Diggers Rest Bulla’s 149. Tara Murray

Youngsters fall at the final hurdle

Dragons ‘do town proud’ By Tara Murray Gisborne’s run in the Cricket Victoria regional T20 competition has come to an end in the conference finals, just one win short of an appearance at the MCG. The Dragons’ hopes of making it to the final match of the 16-team statewide competition were dashed by their loss on Sunday to Victorian Turf Cricket Association outfit Doutta Stars. Dragons president Andrew Headberry acknowledged the club didn’t even know of the competition’s existence 12 months ago, and the side had exceeded all expectations. “Today was full of character,” Headberry said after the loss to Doutta Stars. “We just said to the boys then that they’d had a real crack and done the town proud.

“For a while there, we just kept turning up and winning matches. We were thereabouts today but couldn’t quite get it done.” Batting first, Doutta Stars made 4-157 on the back of 80 from Lorenzo Ingram. Clinton Young looked the most dangerous of the Dragons’ bowlers, taking one wicket, while Jay King bowled tightly, conceding 22 runs off his four overs. In reply, the Dragons could manage only 9-139, Young top-scoring with 43 while Eamon McKenna contributed 37 at the top of the order. “We lost wickets of the wrong guys at key times. Our best T20 batsmen were out early,” Headberry said. “Simon Harman and Tahir Afridi were back in the shed when we had only 20-odd on the board, which was always going to make it hard. Jarryd [Vernon] hasn’t played much cricket for the past three or four weeks

… he tried hard but was underdone. In the end, we really needed Clint or Eamon to go on and make a big score.” Headberry said the Stars were steadier at key moments and their experienced players had batted well. An allround performance by former AFL player Clinton Young was the standout for the Dragons. “He just turned up one day and asked [to] play a game,” Headberry said. “He’s fantastic around the club and is obviously getting better and better.” Headberry said the T20 campaign had left a big impact on the club. “We had a lot of our under-16 kids here watching this competition. The shorter form of the game is just going to keep getting bigger and bigger, and obviously the kids will be playing a lot of it. It’s good for the kids to see the club going so well.”

It was grand final heartache for Central Highlands at the Victorian Bushrangers under-18 state championships at the MCG on Sunday. Looking for their first state title since 2013, the Highlanders had their chances against Metropolitan South East Bayside but eventually fell 35 runs short. Highlanders coach Paull Jeffrey said it was the little things that made the difference. Metropolitan South East Bayside batted first and was bowled out for 232 in its final allocated over. “We’d like to have batted first and put the pressure on them to chase but we lost the toss,” Jeffrey said. “Two of their batsmen went on to make scores and we dropped both of them when they were on about 10. It could have been a different story. “We could have done things a bit differently.” Bacchus Marsh’s Jack Lalor and East Ballarat’s Harli Givvens took three wickets each for the Highlanders. At 1-91 in reply, the Highlanders appeared on track to chase down the runs with ease. But then it all went wrong and they lost 9-106 in being dismissed for 197. “We lost wickets at crucial times,” Jeffrey said. “A few of our players were caught on the boundary, hitting the ball straight down fielders’ throats. “They executed better in the field than we did; they fielded really well.” With 61, Tom Rogers, originally from Gisborne, was the Highlanders’ standout batsman. It took his total for the tournament to 338 at an average of 84.50. “He had a fantastic week and he’s only 16,” Jeffrey said. “He’s playing Premier Cricket [for Melbourne Uni], which is amazing. “I think he broke the record for the most runs scored by a Central Highlands batsman in an under-18 carnival.” North Ballarat’s Jakob Tidyman made 34 in the final. Despite the loss, Jeffrey said the competition and the chance to play on the MCG had been an amazing experience for the boys. Five of the squad are eligible to play in the tournament again next year. “The boys got along really well and loved the experience,” Jeffrey said. “They’ve learnt a lot and can take it back to their club cricket.” Tara Murray

Gisborne in the clear By Tara Murray Only a massive loss can stop Gisborne from finishing top of the Central Highlands bowls division 1 ladder. With one round remaining in the season, Gisborne is 15 points clear of Kyneton Golf Gold. Two rink wins against Lancefield in the final round will be enough for Gisborne to finish first. On Saturday, Gisborne easily accounted for Kyneton, 122 (18)-84 (0), with Matthew Bacon’s rink winning 40-19. Kyneton Golf Gold also had a massive win in knocking off Kyneton Golf Blue. Gold won 132 (16)-65 (2), with Colin Schmidt taking the rink win for the Blues. Lancefield kept the pressure on second-placed Gold and remains four points behind heading into the final round. On Saturday, it defeated Woodend 94 (15)-83 (3). Bacchus Marsh defeated Romsey 109 (18)-85 (0) in the other match. Meanwhile, Sunbury has all but cemented a top-two spot with three rounds remaining in Bowls Victoria’s division 2, section 2. Facing third-placed West Coburg, Sunbury won 100 (18)-55 (0). Brad Janner’s rink won 31-8, Mark Cowan won 19-17, Carla Krizanic (nee Odgers) won 23-22, and Brad Willoughby won 27-8. Sunbury is atop the ladder, nine points clear of Fitzroy Victoria (2) and 45 clear of third-placed Glenroy (2). It was a good week for Janner, who won a successive Sunbury male club champion trophy and the club’s male pairs with his father David. Krizanic won the women’s singles club championship.
