A 20-year-old Werribee man has been arrested in a counter-terrorism raid after police uncovered an alleged plot to shoot and kill as many people as possible at Federation Square on New Year’s Eve. The man was arrested by the Special Operations Group on the corner of Synnot and Bridge streets in Werribee just after 3pm on Monday as part of Operation San Jose, which had been monitoring the “high risk” man since the beginning of this year.

Deputy Commissioner Shane Patton said the Australian-born man, who was born to Somali parents, is believed to have unsuccessfully tried to obtain an automatic rifle to carry out the attack.

When Star Weekly went to press, he was being interviewed by police in relation to the offences of ‘Acts in preparation to commit a terrorist attack’ and ‘Collecting documents to facilitate a terrorist act’, and was expected to be charged once the interview process had concluded. One of the charges he is facing carries a penalty of life in prison.

“What we will be alleging is that he intended to use a firearm to shoot and kill as many people as he could in the Federation Square area on New Years’ Eve,” Deputy Commissioner Patton said.

“This male did not access a firearm, I think it’s very important that I provide that reassurance to the public.

“He’s accessed documents produced by Al Qaeda Arabian Peninsula, which is a guidebook in respect to how to commit a terrorist act, and also how to use firearms.

“The arrest means that this threat has been removed.

“We’re quite confident that there’s no risk, or no threat, to the Victorian community now that we have removed him from society and he’s being interviewed.”

The Special Operation Group executed three search warrants – one at his Werribee address, a Footscray computer business where he had worked part-time and a Meadow Heights address associated with him on Monday.

Car thieves target keys, homes

By Charlene Macaulay Car thieves are burgling homes to steal the car keys of newer-model cars and cars locked up in garages.

That’s the word from the National Motor Vehicle Theft Reduction Council (NMVTRC), which recorded 2421 car thefts across Wyndham between January 1, 2013 and June 30, 2017.

The figures show that car thefts are trending up year-on-year, with 380 car thefts recorded in 2013, 484 in 2014, 579 in 2015 and 659 in 2016.

This year, 319 cars were reported stolen between January 1 and June 30. About 68 per cent of stolen vehicles were eventually recovered.

Werribee topped the list for the most cars stolen this year, with 90 cars stolen up until October 31, followed by Hoppers Crossing (74), Tarneit (59), Point Cook (56) and Laverton North (54) rounding out the top five. Holden Commodores – ranging from VT 1997 models to VE 2013 models – were the most commonly stolen vehicles.

A NMVTRC spokesperson said the best way to keep a car safe was to protect their keys.

‘‘

A lot of thefts are - Adam Radley opportunistic

’’

“Thieves often target homes to steal car keys of secure vehicles, so enhancing your home’s security is one way to prevent that occurring as well as safeguarding your vehicle’s keys – they are worth as much as the value of your car,” the spokesperson said.

“Always store car keys out of view and away

from external doors and windows and never leave your car unattended with the keys in the ignition.”

Sergeant Adam Radley from Wyndham’s vehicle crime reduction team agreed.

“A lot of thefts are opportunistic, such as the victim leaving the keys in the car thinking they will go do something quickly or to ‘warm the car up’. Also offenders committing burglaries on houses and obtaining the car keys can be an issue.”

Sergeant Radley said car theft had gone down 47 per cent from last year.

“I said, ‘This would be a nice present for the Mercy’,” she said.

Ms Mayen said the nurses were “very excited and happy” after she named Mercy.

Despite her early birth, Mercy is now in good health and living at home with her family.

Ms Mayen, who came from South Sudan to Australia in 2006, said she was happy Australia could offer a good future for her children.

Ms Mayen, who has three children, also gave birth to the second-youngest, Martin, at Werribee Mercy two years ago.

She said that although she lost a lot of blood during Martin’s birth, the hospital’s employees made her safe and reassured.

“They have a great team there and they are really supportive,” she said.

Ms Mayen said although she wanted to name Mercy in honour of an order of nuns called the Sisters of Mercy who have carried out many good deeds across the world, another major reason she decided upon the name was the

A new mother has named her baby girl Mercy, as a tribute to the staff at Werribee Mercy Hospital.

Rebecca Mayen and her husband Henry welcomed Mercy into the world on November 17, although she was actually due to be born on December 2. When she was born at 38 weeks, Mercy weighed just 2.2kg and was 50 centimetres long.

Ms Mayen said doctors made the decision to induce Mercy, after they discovered she had stopped growing and that there was not enough amniotic fluid surrounding her.

A police operation aimed at drug dealing and other crimes in Wyndham has led to the seizure of a large amount of illicit substances, property and cash, including $10,000 that was vacuum-sealed and hidden in a pillow.

Detective Acting Sergeant Chris Black, from the Wyndham Crime Investigation Unit, said Operation Cleansweep was carried out from the end of October to early this month.

He said the operation targeted people believed to be involved in dealing drugs, handling stolen goods and committing volume crime.

“Over the two weeks, we executed 12 search warrants across Wyndham, seizing a large amount of drugs including ice (crystal methamphetamine), heroin and cannabis,” he said.

He said the search warrants were carried out at properties in Werribee, Wyndham Vale, Tarneit, Truganina, Point Cook and Williams Landing.

The operation resulted in 23 people being arrested, with charges laid including trafficking drugs of dependence, aggravated burglary, theft of a motor vehicle, conduct endangering life and handling stolen goods.

Detective Acting Sergeant Black said the operation would not be a one-off project.

Council defends $18,700 trip

By Alesha Capone Wyndham council has defended a decision to spend more than $18,700 on an overseas trip for two councillors and two officers.

Earlier this month, the council’s economy, innovation and liveability director Kate Roffey, WynLens creator and project director Adam Mowlam, then-mayor Henry Barlow and smart city portfolio holder Aaron An visited Barcelona for the Smart City Expo World Congress.

The council was invited to attended to make

a presentation about its WynLens initiative, a mixed reality technology project which has won several awards, including this year’s National Award for Excellence in Local Government.

WynLens was also up for an award at the Barcelona conference, but lost to Dubai.

Cr Barlow told radio station 3AW that although the council could have sent just two people, the conference “ ‌ was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to see what smart cities are doingâ€?.

Wyndham council’s chief executive Kelly Grigsby said the council sent four

representatives to the Barcelona conference, because there were a number of meetings to attend during the event.

Ms Grigsby said this included meeting Leading Cities chief executive Mike Lake; the City of Chicago chief information officer Danielle Dumerer; and representatives from the Taipei Smart City Office, Singapore’s Housing and Development Board, the Israeli government and the federal government’s trade and investment commission, Austrade.

She said the Wyndham councillors and officers also met representatives from

organisations working in the smart cities field, including CitizenLab and DigitalTown. “To enable Wyndham city to attend all of these meetings, our mayor, Cr Henry Barlow, and smart city portfolio holder, Cr Aaron An, attended the conference along with two staff representatives at a total cost of $18,717.22,� Ms Grigsby said.  “The councillors and staff stayed at the Ofelias Hotel, which was recommended by the congress organisers.�  According to its website, Ofelias Hotel is a four-star hotel.

Looking a lot like Christmas You better watch out, you better not cry ‌ Santa Claus is coming to Sanctuary Lakes this weekend, and everyone is invited.

Christmas at the Lakes is on again for its 12th year, with up to 10,000 people expected to descend on Breezewater Reserve in Sanctuary Lakes this Saturday from 2pm.

This year’s event will include Christmas carols by professional local talent and school children, children’s rides and an animal farm, face-painting, food and craft stalls and a visit from Santa.

There will also be a fireworks finale at 9.30pm.

The event is alcohol free and pet free and entry is a gold coin donation.

Avalon patron figures take off

By Charlene Macaulay Passenger numbers at Avalon Airport are soaring.

The airport’s sole carrier, Jetstar, is on track to carry a record 780,000 passengers through Avalon this year – a 38 per cent increase in the last two years. Wyndham residents make up about 15 per cent of Avalon customers.

Jetstar Australia and New Zealand chief executive Dean Salter said the airline ran 97 weekly flights to and from Sydney, the Gold Coast, Adelaide and Hobart.

“More than a quarter of a million additional travellers are flying to and from Avalon Airport this year compared to two years ago, which is great for the local economy,” Mr Salter said.

“Avalon Airport is the gateway for many people wanting to enjoy some of the great attractions in the area, such as the Great Ocean Road and the Twelve Apostles.”

Avalon chief executive Justin Giddings said more flights, and the introduction of an express Melbourne-to-Avalon Skybus service earlier this year had helped to boost patronage.

‘‘

We are becoming more accessible for people

’’

- Justin Giddings

“We’re becoming more accessible for people, and I think the economy is going very well and there’s more people who can afford to fly.

“Sydney is really popular, it’s such a big market, and the Gold Coast is also extremely popular … those two areas are really dominating.”

Mr Giddings said plans to turn Avalon into an international airport remained a high priority.

“We want to, it’s a matter of attracting an airline … it’s very difficult.

“We’re the first airport in Australia to try and compete with a major city airport, and hence it is very hard to break that monopoly.

We don’t have border agencies, so we don’t have customs and quarantine here, and to get an international airline we’d need to get that.

“But it is something that we certainly really want to try and get.”

Lort Smith a pet project For Truganina woman Leanne Giggins, volunteering at Lort Smith Animal Hospital is a way for her to give back to the community.

In a new report from Ernst & Young, the services and work provided by Lort Smith – including those of volunteers such as Ms Giggins – are reported to be positive social incomes worth $10.1 million to Melbourne in the past year.

Ms Giggins said a life-long love of animals inspired her to begin volunteering at Lort Smith about 12 months ago after she retired from work.

“I think you get a lot out of it – you get to meet the staff, other volunteers, have a bit of a chat,” she said.

“It’s rewarding, you know you’re doing a good thing for the community.”

Ms Giggins, who also owns two griffin dogs, Cozy and Toby, volunteers at Lort Smith every Tuesday afternoon. She started out working in

the hospital’s laundry, before moving into the cattery and the kennels.

“In the kennels, we clean them out, spray lavender to make them smell nice, take dogs for walks, sit in pens and pat them,” she said.

“The smaller dogs like to lay on you and fall asleep.

“For the larger ones, you throw the ball and give them a bit of one-on-one attention – they love it.”

Ms Giggins said she also enjoyed seeing Lort Smith staff find new homes for animals.

“I just think that the work they do with animals, and how they care for animals, is just amazing,” she said.

Kevin Hillier is unimpressed with more council hi-jinx

L

ike many ratepayers, readers and residents, I was not overly impressed with the revelation that four people were needed to go to Barcelona to attend the Smart City Expo World Congress to present Wyndham council’s WynLens idea, which was nominated for an award. I am sure the $19,000 could have been better spent elsewhere. But in the scheme of things, it is small bananas.

What did get my blood boiling was this passage that was reported in the media: “Another councillor, who wished to remain anonymous, said a number of councillors were not happy with the cost to ratepayers. ‘It’s a lot of money, and the trip occurred right at the end of the current mayor’s term’,” the councillor said.”

What a spineless, back-stabbing weasel this “councillor” is. Since when does a pot-shotting elected representative get to remain anonymous while tipping a bucket on his or her fellow councillors? Is this the type of person we want to be part of our supposedly transparent, accountable council? I think not. You give up

the anonymous quote rights when you are elected. Have the courage of your convictions, put up or shut up – or move on. Interesting that the quote noted the end of the current mayor’s term. Was the “councillor” frightened that if he or she were named, it might have jeopardised any leadership aspirations they harbour?

There was an embarrassing display of ineptness during the meeting to elect the new mayor. After Peter Maynard was elected unopposed, all that was missing from the next five to 10 minutes was the Benny Hill music as attempts were made to have the position of deputy mayor tabled and voted on.

What unfolded was a farce that only provided more ammunition to those who believe councils should be axed. As if that wasn’t enough hi-jinx, several councillors are backing a move to have more than one deputy mayor – because people want a titled representative at their events, not just an ordinary councillor.

Give us a break! Truth is, they are all pretty ordinary and no title will change that in a hurry. ■

Dedicated to Wyndham

By Alesha Capone For the past 50 years, Margaret Campbell has been a dedicated Wyndham volunteer.

The Werribee great-grandmother, 81, has been presented with a Lalor Hero award in recognition of her five decades of service to the community.

Lalor MP Joanne Ryan presents the annual awards to recognise exceptional efforts by volunteers.

The list of organisations Mrs Campbell has been – or is – involved with includes Western Women Writers, Western Union Writers, the Wyndham Community Arts Alliance, the Werribee Community Legal Centre, the Werribee Red Cross and the Wyndham Reconciliation Advisory Committee.

Mrs Campbell has also been on the Wyndham Community and Education Centre board for 15 years.

She is serving as vice-president and volunteers there every Monday in her capacity as a justice of the peace. She describes the centre as “a community gem”.

“What it gives to community is truly wonderful – that’s why I like to hang around there,” she said.

Mrs Campbell, an author and poet, has written a history of the centre, which was previously called the Werribee Community Centre. For the project, she collected more than 160 stories from residents.

That, in turn, led to the publication of a book, From Here to There, that contains first-person accounts of family migration to Werribee from the 1840s-2000s that was launched by former prime minister Julia Gillard.

Mrs Campbell runs a weekly group for young writers in Werribee and launched a young writer’s competition in 1997.

Margaret Campbell has been given a Lalor Hero award. (Damjan Janevski)

“The reason I wanted to do it is because at school, when I handed a teacher my first poem, she said, ‘That’s nice,’ and handed it back,” Mrs Campbell said. “I was a closet writer for 53 years.”

Because her step-mother would not allow her to attend university, Mrs Campbell joined the WRAAF at the age of 18.

This brought her to Point Cook in 1954, and five years later she married her husband, Malcolm, with whom she had six children.

Mrs Campbell went on to study professional writing and editing as a mature-age student.

At the age of 78, she attained a master of arts from Victoria University.

Litter program cleans up An innovative bid to eliminate litter on building sites has been so successful the program will now be expanded.

A partnership between Wyndham council and leading property developers was designed to build a cleaner Wyndham and was initially run as a six-week trial in Point Cook.

Wyndham City’s Environment and Sustainability portfolio holder Cr Heather Marcus said: “In September we launched the Building a Cleaner Wyndham project.

“The trial was a Victorian-first which saw builders agree to contain rubbish, undertake regular litter sweeps and dispose of rubbish properly.

“The six-week trial has since proven to be a major success, with a 60 per cent drop in litter recorded at Wolfdene’s Saratoga estate in Point Cook.

“Litter from building sites is damaging to our local environment and can end up in waterways, creeks and grasslands.

It is also an eyesore that frustrates many residents.

“By working directly with developers, we can make a real impact on the litter created by building sites.”

Cr Marcus said the success of the first trial showed the potential for the project to be adopted in other municipalities.

The second Tidy Tradies trial will run from early November to December. For more information visit www.wyndham. vic.gov.au.

Council considers second deputy

By Charlene Macaulay Does Wyndham council need a second deputy mayor?

Debate surrounding the possibility of a second deputy mayor divided councillors at last week’s mayoral election, and is expected to continue next month when councillor Heather Marcus plans to call for a review of the local law.

Cr Marcus believes a second deputy mayor is needed to attend events and serve the growing area. The matter is likely to be debated at the December council meeting.

Although a second deputy mayor wouldn’t result in a pay boost for any councillor elected to the position, changing the local law to allow for the provision of a second deputy mayor will cost the council an undisclosed sum.

Wyndham chief executive Kelly Grigsby said: “Amending any local law is a resource intensive process, with staff time and legal advice being the most significant costs. The promotion of community consultation opportunities is also an additional expense.”

The council refused to put a dollar figure on the amendment, saying it would be misleading to do so at this stage.

‘‘

I’m disappointed we’ve actually gone down this - Kim McAliney track

’’

Fellow councillors Josh Gilligan, Intaj Khan and Mia Shaw appeared to be in favour of the proposed change at last week’s mayoral election.

“I am glad that the issue of two deputy mayors has been raised … I am very much looking forward to what our community has to say on this proposal and I do encourage

residents to start providing feedback to their ward councillors,” Cr Shaw said.

However, councillor Kim McAliney and outgoing mayor Henry Barlow expressed disappointment at the suggestion.

“I’m disappointed that we’ve actually gone down this track,” Cr McAliney said.

“One deputy mayor has been sufficient for the history of this city, I believe it’s a waste of ratepayers’ money.”

Cr Barlow added: “The city of Melbourne has one million people – the biggest city in Victoria – and they seem to get on very, very well with one mayor and one deputy mayor.”

Maynard takes the helm to put the best interests of the community at the forefront of what we do with evidence-based decisions.”

Outgoing mayor Henry Barlow said it had been a great honour to serve.

“If we only worry about roads, rates and rubbish, the pot holes, the overhanging tree branch, how high is the grass cut in the local park, as a city we’re not going to go very far,” Cr Barlow said.

“We have to look at least 20 years in advance to as to what you want the city to be … and I think we’ve been very successful in doing that.”

Wyndham has a new mayor, with councillor Peter Maynard elected to the top job.

It’s the second mayoral term for the sports development portfolio holder, who previously held the position in 2014-15. As mayor for the next 12 months, Cr Maynard will also take on the growth and transport portfolio.

Cr Maynard, who was elected unopposed, thanked all council employees – from school crossing supervisors up – for making the city a “cohesive and well-oiled unit”.

“As mayor, I’m considered leader of the council as a group however, the leader is only as good as the rest of the team. I can honestly say that we have an outstanding councillor group that is supported by just as outstanding executive leadership group of council directors and managers,” he said.

“To the residents of Wyndham, I say this: this council have always, and will always, continue

About 12 members of Werribee CFA have cultivated their finest moustaches and beards for the annual men’s health fundraiser.

First home windfall for Wyndham

By Alesha Capone Wyndham has topped the state for the number of first-home buyers exempted from paying stamp duty.

Between July and September this year, 202 Wyndham residents were granted an exemption from paying the tax.

Another 51 people buying a home in the municipality were granted a reduction in the amount of stamp duty they paid.

All together, the 253 stamp duty transactions amounted to eight per cent of all those

conducted within Victoria, during the three months.

The municipality of Casey in Melbourne’s south-east was second on the list, with 164 exemptions and 52 reductions in stamp duty.

Earlier this year, the state government announced it would introduce new stamp duty laws for eligible first-home buyers.

The changes, which came into effect on July 1, meant that people buying their first home do not have to pay stamp duty, as long as the property they buy has a dutiable value (which generally means the price or market value

at time of contract, whichever is greater) of $600,000 or less. At least one of the buyers must also use the property as their main home.

As well, eligible Victorians buying a first home with a dutiable value of between $600,001 and $750,000 receive a concession in the amount of stamp duty they must pay.

The concession applies on a sliding scale, so the closer the home’s value is to $600,001, the greater reduction in stamp duty.

Werribee MP Tim Pallas said that across the state, the new legislation had saved first-home buyers from paying $37 million in stamp duty between July and September.

“We implemented these reforms to make it easier for first-home buyers to crack into the housing market, and already we’re seeing a very strong uptake,” Mr Pallas said.

“We know that getting started in the housing market is difficult.”

Ultimate in flying fun Competitive frisbee is taking off in Wyndham – just ask Dillon Taylor.

Mr Taylor, who has been playing “flying disc” for almost four years, is the vice-president of Wyndham Ultimate.

Ultimate is a sport in its own right and is recognised by the Australian Sports Commission.

It is played between two teams, with goals scored at either end of a rectangular pitch.

Wyndham Ultimate plays against other teams from across the state and last month took part in its first national tournament, the division two Australian Mixed Ultimate Championships in New South Wales.

Mr Taylor, who led his team as captain, was one of two male competitors who received a Most Valuable Player award at the event.

Mr Taylor, 25, said he enjoyed playing Ultimate because he was “super-competitive” and also liked the people involved in the sport.

He also plays football and he said after he first took up competitive frisbee, it took some getting used to the fact that it is a non-contact sport.

Mr Taylor said that in the future, he would like to represent Australia in Ultimate.

“Usually I train at least once a week, and if can, get out more on my own,” he said.

He also coaches teams at the Wyndham Ultimate club and said anyone who was interested was welcome to join up.

“We have an indoor league every Sunday night at Eagle Stadium and we want as many people as possible to come,” he said.

On the road to cut congestion

By Alesha Capone The state opposition has announced it will remove 55 troublesome intersections in Melbourne and Geelong, if it wins next year’s Victorian election.

The Liberal party has announced 35 of the traffic hotspots it plans to upgrade, including Point Cook Road and Princes Highway, Point Cook.

Elsewhere in the west, intersections in Sunshine, Footscray and West Footscray are listed for removal.

The Liberal candidate for Tarneit, Glenn Goodfellow, said the remaining 20 intersections would be decided upon after community consultation.

The opposition said between $4.1 billion to $5.3 billion would be spent on the project.

Underpasses will be the preferred upgrade for most of the intersections, with the final designs to depend on feedback from engineers, councils and the public.

Mr Goodfellow described the plan as “the biggest traffic congestion-busting project in Victoria’s history.”

But the Minister for Roads and Road Safety Luke Donnellan hit back at the announcement.

“You can’t trust the Liberals to build anything,” he said.

“They did nothing for four years – no major road projects, no investment in maintenance – traffic backed up across the state while the Liberals sat on their hands,” Mr Donnellan said.

“While the Liberals talk about infrastructure, we’re building it.

“We built on and off ramps at Sneydes Road on the Princes Highway, to reduce congestion and improve traffic flow in Point Cook.”

Sarah Connolly, who will be Labor’s candidate for Tarneit at next year’s state election, says she wants to give the area “a very loud” voice in Parliament.

Incumbent Tarneit MP Telmo Languiller will not re-contest the seat during next November’s election following allegations he abused his parliamentary entitlements.

Ms Connolly said that she had not yet met with Mr Languiller, but was planning to do so to discuss the electorate.

Ms Connolly said that if elected, her priorities for the area would include crime, infrastructure and community services.

“As well, things like ensuring young people have job opportunities, access to TAFE and further education and re-engaging with kids who have left schools is also important,” she said.

Ms Connolly said transport was the biggest challenge facing Tarneit.

14 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ NOVEMBER 29, 2017

Ms Connolly said she was keen to find out what issues were important to Tarneit residents and that she wanted people to think of her as a “normal mum”.

She has a law degree, works full-time as a customer relationships officer and has two young children.

Ms Connolly describes her family as “a big union family” – her husband, Scott Connolly, is assistant secretary at the Australian Council of Trade Unions.

She said they moved from Brisbane to Altona North about two years ago.

She said that although Altona North was not located in the Tarneit electorate, it was less than a 10-minute drive away.

“If I am elected, I will be in the area (Tarneit) every day,” she said. “And if I get voted in, I will absolutely consider moving to the electorate.”

(Joe Mastroianni)

Candidate a new ‘voice’

Mr Donnellan said the state government had also provided VicRoads with $250,000 to develop a business case to improve traffic flow and safety on Point Cook Road.

As well, he pointed to the $1.8 billion package of road upgrades planned for the outer western suburbs, which will widen Dunnings and Palmers Roads from Point Cook Road to the Princes Freeway.

Several sections of other Wyndham roads will be duplicated between next year and 2022, including Derrimut Road between Sayers and Dohertys Roads.

The Werribee Football Club is looking to the future, with a membership launch for the 2018 season, an upgraded facility and a new logo.

The club has officially launched its membership campaign for next year with the slogan “Leave Your Mark”.

For the first time in almost two decades, Werribee is heading into its first season as a standalone VFL club.

The club is calling on fans from across Wyndham to show their support, as it sets out into a new era, which includes the re-designed logo.

The new logo has a stylised “W” emblem from the club guernsey in the traditional Werribee gold, and comes in two slightly different versions, with one featuring black trim and the words “Werribee Football Club” in black text, and one featuring white trim and white text.

Club chief executive Mark Penaluna said it was an exciting period for the club, which would also soon be operating out of a new state-of-the-art facility at Avalon Airport Oval.

Well-known figures from the club’s history recently gathered to hail its new membership launch and inspect the redevelopment progress at Avalon Airport Oval.

Former president Bruce Montgomery, 1993 premiership coach Donald McDonald, former reserves player and administrator Eddie Marriot, club goal kicking record holder Kevin Leece, Kerryn O’Brien from the club’s Hall of Fame and games record holder Robbie Castello attended the event.

David Lyons, who was a member of the first team to play for Werribee 53 years ago, also joined the group. Mr Lyons was a member of the Werribee under-19 team for round one in 1965. He is still involved with the club as treasurer and a long-standing board member.

Warriors’ winning ways

By Charlene Macaulay Victoria’s best BMX riders descended on Hoppers Crossing earlier this month to battle it out in the 2017 Victorian BMX State Championships.

More than 550 riders – from kids to adults – competed in the three-day event, held at the Wyndham Warriors BMX Club’s home base at the Heathdale Glen Orden Wetlands.

The Warriors were in fine form throughout the competition, snaring a total 28 state plates.

President Gary Morgan enjoyed a particularly good competition, coming first in the 50-plus men’s division and the 50-plus men’s cruiser division.

Other first-place getters included Ava Lazaridis (9 girls division), Alyssa James (19-24 women), Amanda Morgan (30-34 womens cruiser), Sienna Richmond (8-10 girls cruiser),

Logan Lazaridis (retro junior 8-13) and Jamie Truran (masters).

Meanwhile, Truganina’s Cameron Gatt also won two state plates, coming first in the 9 boys division and placing second in the 8-10 boys cruiser event.

Cameron competes with Geelong Thunder BMX club and trains up to five times a week under the guidance of father and son team Fraser and Brandon Te Hiko.

Call to change Lalor boundaries

By Charlene Macaulay A Wyndham councillor is calling for Point Cook to be removed from the seat of Lalor as part of a redistribution of federal electoral boundaries.

In a submission made to the Australian Electoral Commission (AEC), Cr Josh Gilligan has recommended that the suburbs of Point Cook, Laverton, Seabrook and Altona Meadows be moved outside of the Lalor

boundaries for enrolment numbers to fall within recommended quotas.

“The easier option available to the AEC will be to redistribute remaining portions of suburbs that still remain in the boundaries but where the majority of the overall suburb lay outside the Lalor boundary,” Cr Gilligan’s submission stated.

The AEC is currently redistributing federal electorates following a decision by the Electoral Commissioner to add another Victorian seat

to the House of Representatives. Currently, 131,058 voters are enrolled in the seat of Lalor – more than 10 per cent over the current enrolment quota of 106,954 – meaning that the electoral boundaries of the seat are likely to change as part of the redistribution.

Cr Gilligan believes, where possible, that entire suburbs should fall within the same electorate to avoid confusion and buck-passing with infrastructure, citing Aircraft train station and Point Cook Road as current examples.

He’s also keen for Truganina to remain within the current boundaries.

“Currently, Wyndham’s Industrial Estate largely presides in the federal electorate of Lalor … [shifting Truganina out of Lalor] would create significant risk to the industrial rates base of the municipality and impact on the business and community harmony.”

He stressed his submission was made in a personal capacity and did not reflect Wyndham council’s position on the issue.

A hearty Christmas gift A Werribee business is spreading Christmas cheer for Wyndham families doing it tough.

The Park Hotel owner Nick Christou and his wife Connie have joined forces with the Smith Family and will put on a special lunch for 50 families of grade 6 Manor Lakes College students next month. The selected families each receive education scholarships from the Smith Family.

Mr Christou said staff and suppliers were donating their time and resources for the lunch, which will also include a petting zoo, photo booth and other entertainment and surprises.

The idea was the brainchild of The Park Hotel’s head of marketing and development, Alex Alvarenga, who received financial assistance through the Smith Family and is now doing a PhD in taxation law.

“The Smith Family endorsed me to be able to buy textbooks, go on excursions, all that kind of stuff, and offered [emotional] support as well. If it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t be here,” Mr Alvarenga said.

Mr Christou said he and Connie wanted to give back to the community, and felt the Smith Family was a perfect fit.

“Here’s someone who’s come through the system who has had the support and has really taken it by the horns and made magic happen.”

Mrs Christou added: “It was about knowing that, if we’re going to give back to the kids and families, that it’s going straight to them.”

Smith Family western metropolitan team leader Fiona Stuart said it was great to see the community helping out their own.

“We have over 600 scholarships in Wyndham … these kids are going to grow up and be contributing to this community, so we want to see them go through school and hopefully on to further education.”

“It’s a metaphor for connecting communities, and art and design, and students across different year levels. It was really open to interpretation from the students and the artwork is really

full-on and random,” Ms Sokolis said.

“It is a community-based project to practice in a school, work as an artist and collaborate with students and staff to generate a work for the school while talking about contemporary practice, the role of artists and the career options.

“This residency is to support making, being and doing as a contemporary artist.”

Fellow artist Molly Chen taught students the secrets behind ceramics, creating a series of ceramic pieces under the theme “container”.

Business delivers boost for west

By Alesha Capone One of the nation’s largest parcel delivery businesses has officially opened a new logistics facility in Wyndham.

CouriersPlease has relocated its Port Melbourne depot to the Drystone Industrial Estate in Truganina.

Developed by Charter Hall Group and Commercial and Industrial Property, the estate is already home to other distribution centres for major Australian companies, including Kmart and The Reject Shop.

The new CouriersPlease site is 29,000 square metres in total, with a 12,500 square metre

building which accommodates more than 160 courier vehicles.

The Truganina depot has 80 staff and employs 110 franchisees.

CouriersPlease, which also has a facility in Mulgrave, has relocated three of its interstate depots during the past 12 months.

The company’s chief executive Mark McGinley said this had been done to accommodate significant growth in the amount of parcels moving through the CouriersPlease network.

“Our commitment in moving to the west of Melbourne has stemmed from it being a massive growth corridor with some of

CouriersPlease new depot in Truganina. (Supplied)

the highest rates of online shopping in the country,” he said.

“The growth in eCommerce is fuelling an increase in parcel delivery, and we are investing

in infrastructure to accommodate for the future growth of parcel volumes.”

Wyndham council’s future focused economy portfolio holder, Cr Walter Villagonzalo, said the arrival of CouriersPlease in Wyndham would bring many benefits to the area.

“Not only has CouriersPlease delivered new jobs to Wyndham, but also the potential for budding first-time business owners to operate their own franchise supported by a well-respected and long-time player in the small parcel delivery industry,” Cr Villagonzalo said.

“We welcome them with open arms as they are another example of major businesses choosing to call Wyndham home.”

A Chinese connection Close ties between Wyndham and Changzhou could be the happy upshot of a recent visit by government officials from the Chinese city.

The delegation travelled to Wyndham to sign an agreement to develop economic, trade and cultural ties between the two regions.

Wyndham acting mayor Kim McAliney signed a letter of intent to establish a “friendship city relationship” between the two cities.

Wyndham future-focused economy portfolio holder Walter Villagonzalo said the agreement would hopefully result in economic benefits for Wyndham.

He said Changzhou was home to more than five million people.

“Changzhou is a major economic hub and is located near the most populated city in the world, Shanghai,” he said.

“It’s great that we were able to host this delegation of government officials from Changzhou and exciting to see a letter of intent to establish a friendship city relationship signed by both parties.

“The agreement states that both sides will work to promote economic co-operation and trade, focusing specifically on the tourism, science, business and technology.”

Cr Villagonzalo said Wyndham was a rapidly growing area that needed to look beyond its own borders to develop economic opportunities.

“Council will now actively work to explore ways that this new relationship can benefit the residents of Wyndham,” he said.

The Changzhou delegation visited Werribee Open Range Zoo, the Victoria State Rose Garden and the Werribee Mansion.

By Alesha Capone It’s game on for the Ethiopian Sports and Culture Federation Victoria’s annual soccer tournament.

The Australian Sports Foundation’s national grants program, Giving4Grassroots, has given the federation a grant of $10,000 towards the soccer event, which will be held in Truganina next month.

Federation vice-president Nuredin Hassan said the week-long tournament would have a theme of “diversity in unity” and feature cultural performances, music and arts.

He said the event would recognise that the Ethiopian community in Victoria was ethnically and culturally diverse.

“It’s to make people feel they belong and to build connections with the community,” he said.

Mr Hassan said the Ethiopian Sports and Culture Federation Victoria was happy for teams that signed up to participate in the tournament to include non-Ethiopian players.

“We’re really keen to also get women’s teams involved – that gives encouragement to girls and young women from our community to

get out and get active, and also children,” he said.

He thanked Australian Sports Foundation and Wyndham council for supporting the event, which will be held from December 26 to 30 at Arndell Park Reserve, 29-49 Federation Boulevard, Truganina.

Anyone interested in playing in the tournament is invited to phone Yonas on 0431 810 799.

If you are from a cultural group which would like to perform at the event, interested in having an arts or craft stall or providing other activities, contact Mr Hassan on 0423 315 405.

Open water, big swims Victoria’s peak open-water swimming event will be held at Williamstown beach in December.

Williamstown Swimming and Life Saving Club and Swimming Victoria will host the third Victorian Open Water Championships and the Williamstown Open Water (WOW) Challenge.

Swimming Victoria chief executive Jason Hellwig said more than 1000 entrants were expected, including the best open-water swimmers in the world.

But he said the event had something for everyone.

“With all distances open to all swimmers, it’s also unquestionably one of the most exciting and popular community open-water challenges in the country,” he said.

Distances range from the 750-metre Optus Junior Dolphin “Chase the Champs” kids

challenge to the 10 -kilometre marathon. This year’s event will also include a multi-class event for swimmers of all abilities.

The Victorian Open Water Championships and WOW Challenge will be held at the Williamstown Swimming and Life Saving Club at Williamstown Beach on Sunday, December 17.

Grants totalling $250,000 have been announced for the establishing of a child care programme in Werribee. The programme provides for the building or purchasing of two day care centres for children, staffing and running costs, administration costs and equipment.

Hoppers Crossing housewife Sharon Whitecross is sick and tired of tending to broken and bloodied bodies in the loungeroom of her house on the intersection of Derrimut and Sayers Rds. In the past year, she has attended 10 accidents and says there is a major accident outside her house every three to four months.

Wyndham campaigners will continue to push for the upgrade of the Princes Freeway after a Federal Government report tabled in Parliament on Monday failed to deliver on roads funding. Wyndham council acting chief executive officer Mr Mark Searle said the inquiry into roads funding recognised the importance of road linkages in the National Highway System (NHS).

Lalor Federal MP Julia Gillard will make political history when she becomes Australia’s first female deputy prime minister. Ms Gillard was re-elected with an increased majority for a fourth successive term as the ALP swept to power at Saturday’s election.

Tell me about your childhood.

I was born in New Zealand … in a little town called Oakura. We were right on the beach. I was a lifeguard growing up, and used to swim competitively, but only at province level. Then I went to art school at 16 in Hamilton, finished there at 19, moved home for a year and moved [to Wyndham] when I was 21.

What prompted your interest in art?

My mum’s always been very creative, and my aunty is quite a famous New Zealand painter.

I’ve always done it, it’s the only thing that ever came naturally. I do a lot of pattern work, painting mainly, and mixed media. [One day], I want to do occupational art therapy.

You just painted a 15-metre mural along one wall at the Crooked Fork cafe, where you work. How do you plan for an artwork of that size?

You don’t, you just start to paint and stand back [to see how it looks]. You plan on what images you’re going to use, but I didn’t know where exactly I was going to use them. I tried a few different techniques, I worked on a wall at home and a door at home, trying to work out the easiest way to do it. It’s the biggest mural I’ve done. I work under the name Janie Askew, which is my maiden name, and put my work on Instagram, under Askew Mural Art.

MY WYNDHAM

How does Werribee compare to New Zealand?

The population’s great, because where I come from it’s so tiny, but I miss the ocean. If I could mix them both together, it would be great.

Janie Neal wears a lot of hats each week – painter and muralist, disability support worker and hospitality worker. The 30-year-old tells Charlene Macaulay about her childhood in New Zealand, her new life here and the challenge of creating large-scale murals.

What’s your favourite Wyndham landmark?

I like the Werribee Mansion gardens for picnics and stuff, and I don’t mind walking my dog around Werribee South.

FOOD REVIEW

CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir finds Somalian with a twist at House of Mandi Eating at Somalian restaurants involves a similar dynamic to chowing down at, say, the Vietnamese eateries of Footscray or St Albans.

Many places have similar – even identical – menus. But within those parameters, there can be wonderful worlds of variation and subtle differences.

For instance, the complementary soup at House of Mandi enjoyed at the first of two CTS visits is quite different from those offered elsewhere on Racecourse Road.

Instead of a mostly clear and tangy lamb broth, here is served a slightly thicker brew, stuffed with not just the expected carrot but also peas and corn, and seasoned – I’m guessing – with a good curry powder. Different – but just as good.

House of Mandi has been running for about a year under the guiding hand of two husband-and-wife teams – Abdirahman Abdi and Fatuma Yussuf, and Yusuf Rabi and Amina Sirat.

The plain facade belies the rather nicely elegant interior and friendly vibe inside.

Those subtle differences come to the fore with this marvellous meal in the “federation” style. The name is a holdover from colonial days and, in the food sense, means the combination of both pasta and rice. Here, the rice is laced through with carrot strands and studded with sultanas and whole chick peas.

The “basta” is cooked in a typically post-al dente fashion and served with a dryish tomato sauce with some minced meat on board.

HOUSE OF MANDI Address: 326 Racecourse Road, Flemington Phone: 9077 3963 The lamb shank looks rather unlovely, but who cares when the meat is so tasty and succulent? Lamb shanks, of course, long ago left the realms of cheap cuts and can be quite expensive these days. So that makes this shank offering an outright bargain at $15.

For the subsequent CTS House of Mandi outing the soup is just a good – but this time comes with noodles.

We opt for the non-shank lamb-on-the-bone in federation style, one with just mandi rice, and pasta. The vibrant yellow rice is Somalian wonderful, with subtle perfuming.

The lamb is well cooked, some fall-apart tender, some not-so-much, but all displaying yumminess of a high order. There’s even a couple of ribs in there.

Following in the footsteps of shanks, lamb ribs have themselves become trendy and, thus, correspondingly expensive. So, once again our meals are sooper dooper bargains at $15.

There’s pan-fried veg under that meat to help liven our meals up even more, along with the familiar yogurt/chilli sauces and a good salad.

Lisa Summers and Daniel Farrugia.

(Joe Mastroianni)

When young Daniel had a grand vision I

nsight Vision Care co-owner Daniel Farrugia knew from very early in his life he would be an optometrist.

When he was five years old, he received his first pair of glasses. It was a moment, he says, which was transformative in more ways than one.

Soon after wearing them for the first time, he remembers seeing the detail of leaves on a tree.

“It’s a memory that has always stayed with me,” Daniel says. “I couldn’t believe what I’d been missing and straight away I thought, ‘I can do this for other people’. From that moment on, I knew what I wanted to do with my life.”

Fast forward to 2017, and Daniel now runs Insight Vision Care with his sister, Lisa Summers,

specialising in children’s eye care.

Their successful optometry clinic recently moved to larger premises on Watton Street in central Werribee to keep up with demand and create greater visibility for the business.

Daniel is understandably passionate about early age eye checks, saying they’re imperative as kids don’t tend to know when they have a vision issue.

“You don’t know what you don’t know, I like to say,” Daniel says.

“If a child has always had fuzzy vision, they tend to think it is normal and never say anything.

“With that in mind, definitely get children’s eyes checked before school starts, and every two to

three years after that throughout primary school.

“Vision problems can inadvertently create behavioural issues in class due to frustrations and headaches associated with eye strain.

“My eldest son has a lazy eye … I didn’t realise it until he was tested, and even then it was by fluke.

“He came into work and asked me to test his eyes for fun, and I only then found the issue. It is a perfect case-in-point scenario.”

Celebrating children’s eye health and its move to Werribee central, Insight Vision Care is having a grand opening sale from December 4 to 9.

There will be a prescription sunnies (frame and lenses) package offer with a free mirror tint or

multicoat, and 30 per cent off all other sunnies.

On Friday, December 8, there will be a “pop-and-win” day with giveaways all day.

“We will fill helium balloons with giveaways on the Friday as a bit of fun,” Daniel says. “So come in, make some noise and grab yourself a prize.

“Just make sure to say hello while you’re here.”

Take the stress out of the packing process When a couple makes the decision to move into a retirement village, they’re faced with the daunting prospect of packing up their lives and making stuff fit into a new, usually much smaller, environment.

The packing process needs to be tackled with a clear plan in mind to avoid a stressful nightmare.

Here’s some handy questions – and answers.

Who will get items that just won’t fit in the next home?

Make a list as you go through your house, then make piles of items for different destinations – to a friend, relative, charity or even as part of a garage sale.

Will existing furniture fit in the new place?

Get a blueprint of the layout of the new home to find out the exact room dimensions.

Knowing what will fit helps make the decision-making process more straightforward.

Which rooms in your house should you pack up first?

If you have attic storage, start there. Items stored in the roof space are likely to be the least used in normal life and most discardable. Or it could be the spare room or laundry cupboards that hide the most clutter. Ask yourself questions about each item, such as: • When was the last time I used this?

• Does it serve a purpose in my new life?

• Does it have irreplaceable sentimental value?

• Will it last long or is repairing worth it?

• Can I get by without it?

• How often do I use it and for what purpose?

• Do I know someone else who will benefit from it more than me?

Am I being kind to myself during the process?

Moving house is a significant change, one that can be physically exhausting and emotionally overwhelming. Factor in that moving from a beloved home to a retirement place can trigger deeper emotions, such as fear, grief or even resentment.

Remind yourself that you don’t have to get rid of everything you treasure – that a cull will, in fact, simplify your life. If you can’t make up your mind about particular items, buy time and place them in storage until you better understand how you feel. Belongings are repositories of memories, so take time to reflect. It’s an important step in ultimately letting go.

(istock)

Packing up and moving on can be both stressful and liberating.

And when the job’s finally done, celebrate the occasion with someone – you deserve it.

Fight power bills with some simple money-saving home improvements While rising energy costs are getting everyone down, it is possible to tackle extremes of cold or heat at low cost.

Sustainability Victoria’s Business and Built Environment director Warren Overton says a little time and a few dollars spent making energy saving improvements can save up to $1000 a year.

Homes built before 2005 with a 1.8-star energy rating, he says, are pushing hard against comfort. But Sustainability Victoria provides very helpful tips to remain comfortable and save some money. Here are four of the best: 1. Set your thermostat to between 18-20°.

Every extra degree of heating adds 10 per cent to your heating bill.

2. Trap the air – close doors between areas that are being heated and cooled if you don’t have central heating.

3. Draught-proof your home. A lot of energy leaks out through gaps around windows, under doors and skirting boards, gaps/holes in exposed floor boards, vents and open manholes. Your local hardware shop can provide sealant, weather stripping and door snakes, which are inexpensive, easily used and help you to save up to $150 a year.

4. When buying new gas and electric appliances use the star rating system to find the most efficient models. The price difference between a three and five-star fridge, for example, is not necessarily great and can save nearly $200 a year.

Some retailers’ websites let you search for appliances by their star-ratings, and the Smarter Choice Retail Program can help you get a better price for a range of products.

IN THE DOGHOUSE

By Lance Jenkinson ■ ■ It

is not every day a Hollywood superstar stops in Werribee for some recreation, but Russell Crowe did just that recently. Under the watchful eye of Commonwealth Games gold medallist Lauryn Mark, the Gladiator star fired a few rounds at the Werribee Victorian Clay Target Club. I’m not sure if it was for a forthcoming movie role or just to pass the time of day, but I think we may be seeing more of Russ in the future as he had a great time and learned a bit from the Marks. I believe he shouted the Hoppers Crossing couple dinner with a few well known friends in the city.

■ Sports

clubs have become much better at recognising the value and contribution of volunteers over the ■ years – unsung heroes are rare these days, thankfully. One who did slip through the cracks until recently was Billy Preston. For the past 23 years, Billy has been cleaning the toilets at the rear of the 11th tee at the Werribee Park Golf Club. Billy bought all the cleaning products and even supplied toilet paper on a weekly basis. He was never asked to do the job – he just did it. Last week, the club acknowledged his great work with a much-deserved honorary membership.

■ Caroline

Springs teenager Tristan Xerri has enjoyed a meteoric rise up the football ladder. The emerging ruckman is a product of Lakeview Secondary College’s elite sports program run by Scott Korczynski, who also coached ■ youngster in the Caroline Springs the seniors. Xerri’s progression has included the Jets, a flag for Caroline Springs in WRFL division 2 and Vic under-18 metro selection. Three games as a 23rd player for Werribee last season in the VFL put him under the gaze of North Melbourne recruiters and his selection in the draft with pick 72 is reward for his talent and hard work.

Hoppers Crossing faces victory challenge

Nkosana Mpofu was pumped with the way Hoppers Crossing bowled on Saturday.

(Shawn Smits)

Hoppers Crossing has taken the upper hand against Yarraville but will by no means be sitting comfortably when play begins on the second day of a tense Victorian Sub-District Cricket Association clash at Hogans Road Reserve.

The Cats made almost every post a winner with the ball in the north-west 1st XI encounter, rolling Yarraville for just 158.

Only Eagles opening batsman David Morgan proved a thorn in the side of the Cats’ bowlers.

Morgan produced 90, while the rest of the Eagles batsmen combined for a paltry 63, with a further five extras thrown in.

Hoppers Crossing shared the workload with the ball, with four players taking multiple wickets. Brandon Diplock shone the brightest with 3-50, while there were two wickets apiece for player-coach Greg Kennedy, Brett Smith and Nkosana Mpofu.

The Cats limped to stumps on 3-20, still chasing a hefty 139 to win.

Werribee was in desperate need of a pick-me-up after starting the season with four straight losses. The tonic for the Tigers was a strong first day’s play against St Bernard’s

Old Collegians at Chirnside Park. The Tigers produced an imposing 9-263 off 80 overs.

The top order set up the day with brilliant knocks from Shaun Dean (54no), Matt Dean (49), Marcus Worrall (37), skipper Tim O’Brien (35) and Ryan Alifraco (30).

In the Victorian Turf Cricket Association, Werribee Centrals have bolstered their chances of featuring in the finals with a 26-run first innings victory over St Andrews Footscray at Galvin Park. The Centurions only just missed out on an outright, finishing 7-125 in the second innings, just short of the 132 target.

In north-west B1, Point Cook comfortably accounted for Wyndhamvale by 56 runs on first innings at Saltwater Reserve.

After making 171, the Warriors bowled to perfection, skittling the Falcons for 115. Aaron Whear (4-18 off 17) and Vineet Yadav (3-47 off 24.1) strangled the life out of the Falcons.

In west A1, Seabrook cruised to a 96-run victory over Bellbridge, with Walgama Eranga pointing the way with 100. Set 114 to win, the Saints finished with 209 off 77 overs.

Hoppers Crossing Sports Club celebrated its 25th anniversary with the annual awards night last weekend.

Members of the original eight-man ■ committee were given lifetime achievement awards. Many of them went out on a financial limb in the early days, some even using their homes as collateral for the club’s finances and some not telling their spouses about that commitment. Fortunately, their vision was rewarded with a successful and solvent club that continues to flourish at Hogans Road.

Hoppers Crossing coach Shaun Barbara is putting on his best poker face and keeping his cards close to his chest when it comes to his targets in the transfer market.

With the Reds moving up to the Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 1 for the first time in 2018 – the highest level in club history – they will presumably target outside help to bolster the squad.

But who those targets are, what positions they will fill and when they will arrive, only one person knows.

“There’s not anything we want to disclose as yet,” Barbara said.

“There’s lots of interest in coming to play for us, but like I did this year and like I’ll do for many years to come, I’m very selective with the personnel we bring into the club.

“We’ve had a few inquiries from guys with decent reputations, but if it doesn’t feel right, I don’t care how big the reputation is.”

Hoppers Crossing will need to find a replacement for Taira Matsumoto.

The Japanese import will return home after playing 15 games and scoring six goals last season.

The good news for Reds fans is that all required players outside of Matsumoto have re-signed.

“We’re pretty confident with the team we’ve got, to be honest,” Barbara said.

“They’ve had a good freshen up, so we’ll bring them in soon and have a chat, let them know how pre-season is going to travel, and we’ll get cracking and start working away for the new season to come.”

There is a huge buzz of excitement at Hoppers Crossing as it prepares for state league 1.

Barbara can hear the joy in the voices of the long-time members who have supported the club through thick and thin.

“As a coach, you always want to win games and you always want to succeed, but sometimes, at some places, you get that little bit extra,” he said.

“I’ve been able to feel and absorb more than just winning here – you’ve been able to see how much it means to the people at this club.

“It’s a club that is respectful to the past and its achievements and want to continue achieving.

“We’re amongst the big boys now, but we don’t plan on taking a backward step … we’ll just hit it full force like we did this year.”

Lance Jenkinson 95 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ NOVEMBER 29, 2017

SPORT STARWEEKLY.COM.AU

Fogarty thrilled to be off to the Cattery Western Jets draftee Lachlan Fogarty will get to call AFL superstars Patrick Dangerfield, Gary Ablett jnr and Joel Selwood his teammates next season.

Suffice to say, the star young midfielder is still pinching himself after landing at the Geelong Cats with pick 22 in the AFL National Draft on Friday night.

“To be honest, I still can’t believe it, it hasn’t really sunk in yet,” Fogarty told Star Weekly.

“It’s crazy to think I’ll be learning off those guys and playing with them.

“Probably the first few weeks, I’ll just be staring at them at training.

“It’s not just those guys, it’s the whole team, they’ve been so successful over such a long period of time, so I’m really excited to be a part of that.”

Fogarty was considered a draft night steal for Geelong. The Spotswood product was talked up as a mid-to-late first round fancy, but he slipped to the Cats early in the second round.

‘Fogs’, as he is known, could not have enjoyed

a more complete junior career, making every post a winner, be it with the Jets, Vic Metro, NAB AFL Academy or St Kevin’s College.

There was still a bit of draft night tension for Fogarty though, when he saw some clubs that were linked to him overlook him in the back end of the first round.

“I was getting a bit worried, but with pick 22, Geelong said my name and I’m just really excited for the next chapter,” he said.

“I’ve been wanting to do this for so long, it’s been my dream, so I guess it’s just a bonus that I get to stay close to home.”

Fogarty said his ability to work in tight confines on a football field might have been strengthened with his basketball background.

The 18-year-old was a star player for Altona Gators in the juniors, winning four most valuable player awards, a state championship and representing Vic Metro at the nationals.

“I was heavily into my basketball,” Fogarty said.

“The basketball has helped my footy in a

number of ways, just the awareness [in the contested ball] and the ability to use both sides of my body has been really helpful.”

Fogarty settled on a football career and it’s a good thing too with the talent at his disposal.

He comes from a football-loving family, including brothers Michael, who played in Footscray’s VFL premiership, and Matthew, who played in a Spotswood WRFL flag winner.

Fogarty is proud to call Spotswood his home club. He is a third generation Woodsman player, as his grandfather Don Smith and dad Terry also played for the club.

Fogarty made his name for the Jets as an inside midfielder, but his fastest route to senior football could be in a small forward role. He does, however, envisage a future in the midfield at the top level.

“Down the track, I see myself becoming a full-time midfielder, so to get to that I’ll need to improve my endurance and strength as well.”

Teen Jet makes history

By Lance Jenkinson Cameron Rayner has become the first Western Jets player to be taken No.1 overall in an AFL National Draft.

Rayner became hot property after a stellar top-age season with the Jets in the TAC Cup and with Vic Metro at the under-18 national championships, with the Brisbane Lions using their first selection in the draft to secure his services.

The Hillside Sharks/Essendon Doutta Stars product was the centre of much speculation in the lead-up to the draft, with cameras capturing his every move on draft day.

But when the moment arrived, even Rayner was none the wiser about where he would land until a text message came through from his manager.

“My manager sent me a little lion emoji on my phone and that’s when I knew,” he told Star Weekly Weekly.

Rayner rose to the top of recruiter wish lists in a remarkable 2017 season, with his play for Vic Metro at the nationals sealing his place at the top of a talented pile of star young players.

96 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ NOVEMBER 29, 2017

The 18-year-old turned heads with his bull-at-a-gate style of play and his ability to rise in the big moments of matches.

Rayner has admitted his endurance running needs to improve for him to become a full-time midfielder at the next level, but from the moment his name was called out, he was keen to get into the elite training environment at the Lions and waste no time in his bid to become the best player he can.

“I switched straight into game mode,” he said. “I’m just looking forward to getting up there, really excited to start training.”

Rayner, a cornerstone of Vic Metro’s run to the under-18 national title, did allow himself the chance to reflect on a successful junior career and enjoy the draft outcome with his family. He particularly enjoyed sharing the moment with his grandparents, who made the trip to Sydney for the draft with the rest of his family.

“I think it’s important that we enjoyed the moment that we’ve had and I got to spend it with my family and friends, so I just loved it,” he said. “Everyone was pretty calm, but I think my sister cried a little bit.”

Rayner quickly realised the enormity of his achievement when he spoke to Western Jets coach Torin Baker, who informed him that he was the first Jets player taken with first pick.

“It’s huge to think of some of the players that have come out of the Jets,” he said. “That’s just a huge honour as well.”

Rayner was already getting to know his Brisbane Lions teammates at the weekend.

His phone was buzzing with phone calls and text messages welcoming him to the club.

One of three Jets taken in the draft – along with midfielder Lachlan Fogarty, who landed at Geelong with pick 22, and ruck-forward Tristan Xerri, who went to North Melbourne with pick 72 – Rayner is not daunted by being the only Jets player moving interstate.

“I had a couple of FaceTime calls and they’re super excited to have me up there and I’m excited to be up there,” Rayner said.

“I’m pretty much going on my own, but I’ve got Toby Wooller from the Oakleigh Chargers, who I’m pretty good mates with, we’re going up there.

“I’m pretty happy – it’s a fresh start and I’ll try to earn my spot.”

Western Jets ruck-forward Tristan Xerri endured a long wait to hear his name called out on draft night, but the result could not have been any better.

Xerri got called out with pick 72 by North Melbourne – the team he grew up supporting.

“I’ve followed North all my life, along with dad,” he told Star Weekly.

“Just waking up this morning and getting messages last night from Todd [Goldstein], Ben [Brown], Jack Ziebell and Shaun Higgins – it’s surreal, I can’t believe it.

“I’m heading down to Arden Street on Monday and I can’t wait to meet all the boys and get stuck into some training.”

Xerri bolted into draft contention after an impressive top-age season for the Jets in the TAC Cup. He will be a two-dimensional player for North Melbourne. He can play as a strong marking forward and an athletic ruckman, as demonstrated by his performances for Vic Metro at the under-18 national championships.

Xerri was guaranteed a spot on the Werribee Tigers’ list for 2018 if he was not drafted, but it was Werribee that bolstered his prospects when he played three games as a 23rd man for the VFL club this season.

“They’ve been great looking after me and giving me the opportunity last year,” he said.

“It gave me confidence being able to perform at VFL level and showed the recruiters what I can do.

“It’s maybe what got me over the line, so that was great.”

Xerri’s already been fast-tracked by the coaching of Torin Baker at the Jets and Scott Korzcynski at Caroline Springs College. He played under Korzcynski for Caroline Springs Lakers in the club’s 2016 WRFL division 2 premiership.

“Scott’s been huge for me,” Xerri said.

“In year 10, there wasn’t much of me – just a relatively tall kid who couldn’t kick a footy, but had some height.

“He stuck with me, taught me the fundamentals and I had a good year in year 10.

“He had a connection with the Western Jets, so he spoke to me, spoke to the Jets as well, so he was probably the reason why I ended up getting my first game.”

Xerri is the first Caroline Springs player to make it to the AFL. Lance Jenkinson

MOTOR

Small car big on performance

By Derek Ogden, Marque Motoring When micro cars first came out, the joke went, you need two – one for each foot.

The roller-skate analogy could equally be applied to the new Hyundai Kona – but for one thing. In latest technology, comfort and convenience, the small SUV is kitted out almost as well as its big brothers, Tucson and Santa Fe. Like its bigger siblings, the Kona comes in four levels of specification – Active, Active with Safety Pack, Elite and Highlander.

There’s a choice of two petrol drivetrains – a 2.0-litre, naturally-aspirated unit mated with six-speed automatic transmission and front-wheel-drive, or a 1.6-litre turbo-petrol unit, matched to a seven-speed dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel-drive.

Prices start at $24,500, plus on-road costs, for the Active 2.0 six-speed automatic 2WD, and top out at $36,000 for the Highlander 1.6 turbo AWD with seven-speed double-clutch automatic.

The front of the Kona is striking, with daytime running lights being separated from the main headlamp assembly. Active has 16-inch wheels with a classic five-spoke design featuring twin spokes; Elite’s 17-inch wheels have a 20-spoke design; Highlander’s 18-inch wheels feature the classic five-spoke look with twin offset spokes in a contrasting black and machined metal finish.

Kona will seat five with ample leg room front and back for the average size person. Luggage space is 361 litres with the back seat in place, expanding to 1143 litres with the seat folded.

Upmarket features include a head-up display in Highlander projecting a virtual image of drive-related information – speed, audio, cruise control details and systems warnings – on to a clear panel mounted behind the instrument binnacle.

Infotainment is in the hands of Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.

Safety features include forward collision assist, blind spot warning, lane keeping assist, driver inattention warning, high beam assist and rear cross traffic alert for use when reversing out of a parking spot.

DRIVING During a launch drive out of Canberra and through the Yass Valley, the 2.0-litre took some urging off the mark and when pressed did so to the accompaniment of a harsh note.

At city speeds, the powertrain was unruffled, producing an adequate ride and handling experience. The 1.6 turbo, on the other hand, was sweet as, slipping between cogs smoothly.
