î Ž Top cop says drug crisis is set to drive crime...
Ice avalanche ICE will be the biggest challenge for local police over the next few years according to Yarra Ranges’ top cop. Superintendent Graeme Arthur, who is the Victoria Police Divisional Commander of Division Two, which includes Yarra Ranges, Knox and Maroondah, spoke to the Mail exclusively last week about the crystal methamphetamine (ice) problem in the area. “It’s (the ice issue) is our biggest challenge of the next few years,� Supt Arthur said. “If we get rid of the ice problem, we would see a major reduction in crime.� Supt Arthur said the same sorts of crimes were happening with heroin users when he was a young policeman in the 1980s and ’90s. But the nature of that drug meant that users were often dopey and drowsy when they got their hit. “Now ice has a totally different effect,� he said. “Sometimes they are awake for five days and have a heightened sense of awareness and are alert and often are committing more crimes while they are affected by the drug. “They are not only extremely aggressive but they have no recollection of what they have done or are doing.� He said the ice epidemic was a driver for much of the volume of crime in the division, which included thefts from cars, theft of cars and other burglaries. “Right across the division, there has been an 8 per cent rise in volume crime,� he said. “The Yarra Ranges is up the same amount, and there is a reason for that. “I’m not saying it’s ice for all, but we believe there is a direct link.� Supt Arthur said the ice problem in the Yarra Ranges was no worse than other areas and that there had
been dramatic increases everywhere. He said that police were aware that Outlaw Motorcycle Gangs were responsible for a lot of the distribution and manufacture of ice and that’s why there was a concentrated effort by police to target these groups. “We’ve done a lot of work on OMCG in the area, Kilsyth, Bayswater, and most would remember a recent raid on a licensed premises and gymnasium in Healesville,� he said. “We also rely on information from members of the pubic, it’s not just a policing issue; it’s a whole of community issue. “Our motto is ‘if you see something, say something’.� The expensive nature of ice and the increase in crime has a direct link, according to Supt Arthur. “It’s now costing users between $700 and $1000 a gram,� he said. “This is why we have addicts breaking into cars and shops - they are selling anything they can get their hands on.� He said because of the expense, one addict would, in effect, cause a mini crime wave on their own and mentioned a recent spate of thefts from cars in Upwey and Boronia that could be linked to drug use. “Burglaries in cafes, car washes petrol stations and other small shops that might leave money in tills overnight is up by 15 to 20 per cent,� he said. “It’s about anywhere they can get their hands on money and the general link to these is ice.� Local police also discovered and arrested a syndicate last year in which ice was bought with stolen computers and iPads. “We had over 100 school burglaries last year where they were stealing laptops and computers,� Supt Arthur said.

Hair aware shows they care By MELISSA MEEHAN CANCER is scary enough. But the added heartache of losing their hair is one of the toughest moments for a woman. For many, it’s a sense of identity and buying a wig is just another expense that’s not easy manage. That’s why the Yarra Valley Opals, along with Mount Evelyn hairdresser Alison Wright, have started up a wig library. “We are a support group for women undergoing cancer treatment,� Yarra Valley Opal Susan Wootton said.

“It’s a social group where those fighting the illness and their families can come together twice a month.� Hairdresser Alison decided to start selling wigs in her salon, but her first client to purchase one was a pregnant breast cancer sufferer who had just lost her home during the bushfires. “I just thought it’s not right for me to make money from something that is so hard,� she said. “These wigs are roughly worth $500 to $600 each, wholesale, so it’s a big expense. “So I decided women should be

THE 2014 Rivers and Ranges Community Leadership Program (RRCLP) applications are now open for future hills leaders. The RRCLP committee said Victoria has nine Community Leadership Programs that have been operating for more than 10 years contributing about $13 million per annum through volunteering activity in regional areas. Organisers said collectively there is a graduate base of 2000 active leaders and the committee is dedicated to enabling the Yarra Ranges to experience the benefits of the program. Created through the experience of the 2009 Victorian bushfires, the program works with community, organisations and business to build a connect-
ed leadership network across the Yarra Ranges. RRCLP chairwoman Ros Affleck said community leaders have been under enormous pressure over the past five years. “They are exhausted and are in need of support and reinforcement by other experienced leaders,” she said. Ms Affleck believes that the program will develop leaders versed in common issues that over time will create a foundation to build thriving and resilient communities. “Local issues including interface council pressures, population growth, environmental issues and increasing cultural diversity will require innovative leaders to drive change to meet these challenges into the future,” she said.
“What they all (program participants) will have in common is their commitment to making their communities vibrant, sustainable and resilient.” RRCLP is a 10-month course commencing in August and gives participant the chance to meet a broad cross section of leaders with a range of experience and backgrounds. Participants are able to explore opportunities in the region and consider different leadership styles with the opportunity to advance professionally in community leadership roles. For more information, to apply, or become a sponsor of the program, visit www.rrclp.org. au or contact program manager Lisa Linton on 0409 287 577 or email pm@rrclp.org.au.

WESBURN Waste Transfer Station (tip) will have its opening times reduced to four days a week as from February next year. The reduction comes after a failed bid by the Healesville community at the the Yarra Ranges Council meeting on Tuesday 10 June to keep the Healesville tip open. Knox Transfer Station Pty Ltd agreed to let the council out of the remaining seven years of a 10-year contract to service the

Healesville tip, in return for reducing open days at Wesburn. Mayor and Ryrie Ward councillor Fiona McAllister questioned the rationale behind allowing Knox Transfer Station to dictate the terms of keeping Wesburn in the contract when the tip was privatised, but not accepting Healesville. Only four submissions were made in relation to Wesburn one in support of reducing open days on the basis it would help maintain viability, two against
and one from a business wanting to assist with recycling programs. Healesville Action Group’s John Anwin also questioned the original contract, along with the gradual reduction in opening hours at Healesville over a period of time. “Is this the same strategy that is being used now to ultimately close Wesburn and will we be back in two years going through the same process for Wesburn?” he asked.

Ideas to drive new resource By REBECCA BILLS MOUNT Evelyn Community House may still be in the set-up phase but leaders are sure it will be just what the community needs. Despite Upper Yarra Community House taking over former Morrison House services at the Hereford Road site, Billanook Ward councillor Maria McCarthy said there are 11 neighbourhood houses in the Yarra Ranges with many having a presence in more than one area. “All our neighbourhood houses are supported through the Neighbourhood House Network that council supports,” she said. “The houses have a strong history in working together to complement one another. “Upper Yarra Community House (UYCH) are looking forward to seeing a permanent neighbourhood house established in
Mount Evelyn.” Mount Evelyn Community House co-ordinator Nicky Condello said the difference between Mount Evelyn Community House and UYCH is it will be delivering pre-accredited programs and workshops. “UYCH has a focus on your accredited courses, VCAL, and being more of a formal education site,” she said. “The emphasis we have is on connecting local communities as well as connecting people within the community.” Community Houses Association of the Outer Eastern Suburbs (CHAOS) networker Maureen McConnell said Mount Evelyn Community House has a lot of resources backing it and it is an important resource in terms of a communal meeting place. “This is a place where people
can come with ideas and say ‘hey, people would really love to do this but we need a bit of support’,” she said. “For some people, coming in and doing an activity at a community house is a foot in the door for volunteering or gaining confidence to move on to an accredited learning situation.” Mount Evelyn Community House is still in the set-up phase and is urging community members to drop in between 10am and 1pm on Mondays and 2pm to 5pm on Wednesdays until 25 June to have a chat with Ms Condello and Ms McConnell about what they would like to see offered at the house. Mount Evelyn Community House is at the Station House, 50 Wray Crescent, Mount Evelyn. For more information about the house, email info@mtevelynch. com.au or call 0409 021 055.
Cuckoo calls five millionth diner By REBECCA BILLS
HISTORY was made last Sunday when the 5 millionth customer walked through the doors at the Cuckoo Restaurant. Les Webb, a patron for more than 35 years, was celebrating with his family at the Olinda restaurant when cow bells sounded and it was announced he was the lucky customer to win return flights to Germany. Food and Beverage manager Bill Inglis said it was a fairytale moment.
“The Cuckoo has this mystique about it and things happen here that are meant to be,” he said. “We had no idea that Les would be the winner, a computer told us, we are thrilled.” Mr Inglis said sadly last year Mr Webb’s beloved wife passed away so he thinks he will give the flights to one of his children. Mr Webb was not the only winner, an overnight package for two at the Arcadia Cottages in Olinda and Fleurbaix in Sassafrass were also given away.
Mr Inglis said this October the Cuckoo will celebrate 100 years of the restaurant on the site. Marketing manager Judy Bitterman told the Mail that this October the Cuckoo will be celebrating the building’s 100 years at the site. Built in 1914, the building was originally called the Quamby. It was sold to Willi and Karin Koeppen in 1958 and transformed into what it is today. Ms Bitterman said the restaurant was one of the most successful in Australia with the owners and the staff making it a unique place.
Briefly Hunt for missing foreigners POLICE are appealing for public assistance to help locate a missing woman and missing man, both foreign nationals. The woman contacted a relative on Tuesday stating that their car was stuck and that they were near a river somewhere, but couldn’t be very precise. The relative believes the two are somewhere in the Olinda State Forest because they have a friend in the area. A search of the area has been conducted but Yidi Fei and Tianhao Jiang are yet to be found. They have a mobile phone with them but police are having difficulty contacting it. Yidi is 58-years-old and she is perceived as being Asian in appearance. Tianhao is 25-years-old and he is also perceived as being Asian in appearance. Police have no description of what either person may be wearing.
Break-in probe MOOROOLBARK police are investigating a burglary at the Churinga Village Coles in Kilsyth on Sunday night. Not long before 2am, three burglars, one female and two males, were seen forcing entry to the supermarket where they stole cigarettes. Police arrived and found a stolen car, and after a short search they found two people from Wandin and Mooroolbark. They are helping police with their investigations.
Ice avalanche swamping Yarra Ranges From page 1 “Seventy per cent of these happened in the Yarra Ranges and we found that they were swapping computers for ice.” While police are at the forefront, Supt Arthur said the community needed to work together in the fight against the ice epidemic. “I don’t think the community understands how big the problem is,” he said. “They are told every day about the road toll – but might not understand the effect of ice on the community.” He said most people would know
someone who uses ice or was affected somehow. “We are not experts in getting people off drugs and relevant support services are under alot of pressure which makes it difficult to address the issues,” he said. “Education needs to start at an early age.” He said the drug can turn the most calm law abiding citizen into a psychotic rage. And police know that even if they charge someone, if they are granted bail, often they will reoffend due to their addiction issues. Addressing addiction will have
an enormous impact on addressing associated crime, helping offenders turn their life around is the key. “We recently charged a 34-yearold drug addict who has a 10-year history breaking the law,” he said. “He had 381 prior convictions and has been in and out of custody throughout his adult life Offenders like him need to break the cycle.” In the past, the road toll was a major problem in the Yarra Ranges, but the good work of local police and the Highway Patrol has meant that there has been a massive reduction in serious collisions in the area. The hardest thing for Supt Arthur
is to ensure that police focus on the ice problem but to also make sure other areas of policing don’t slip. “We’ve got the Croydon Divisional Tasking Unit focused on clandestine labs and frontline police working on it, too,” he said. “The introduction of PSOs has also been a great help as we’re finding a number of people travelling into our area from outside using the public transport network.” Supt Arthur said while police processed a large number of ice traffickers, the availability is so high due to the ease of manufacturing the drug that the void is filled quickly with others.
A MAN has been charged after a road rage incident when he produced an imitation firearm. Lilydale CIU Detective Senior Constable Mark Smithwick said the incident happened along the Warburton Highway in Wandin and police believed the driver was on his way home from the York on Lilydale. “After a police search an offender from Millgrove was charged,” he said. “We found an imitation handgun.”

SHE saw a need for disability support services in the area some 40 years ago so decided to take charge and create a support group for mothers. Today, that support group has grown to what is now known as Melba Support Services. Last week founder Pauline Jones was awarded the Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for her service to people with disability and their families. “It was totally unexpected but a very humbling experience,” Ms Jones said. “You feel so honoured to receive it because you don’t do these things with a view to gain recognition, rewards or medals - it’s just there was something needed in the community.” Ms Jones started Melba Support Services as a support group in her lounge room in the early ’70s after dealing first hand with the lack of support for mothers of disabled children. “My first child, Susan, was born intellectually disabled and there was a 10-year waiting list at St Nicholas
Life Governor of Melba in recognition of her volunteer work and her advocacy on behalf of people with disabilities and their families. Melba’s CEO Glenn Foard said Ms Jones is very modest about her achievements but is a most deserving award recipient. “We’ve got a really proud history and to still have our founders connected with the organisation is brilliant,” he said. “They share with us the trials and tribulations that they faced in the early ’70s, and we still have challenges now. “However, we have come a long way through vision, commitment and energy to create this organisation. We are extraordinarily proud of Pauline and we know that she is extraordinarily proud of everyone connected to Melba.” Fellow Melba Life Governor Angela Blomfield described Ms Jones as a wonderful, compassionate Australian whose initiative has changed the lives of countless citizens with disabilities.

About your core stability CORE stability is one of those fitness buzz phrases that appears to mean different things to different people. When I studied physiotherapy in the 1990s, it was simply referred to as ‘stability’ and we were trained to isolate the ‘stabilising’ muscles of the lower back and pelvis to assist people with lower back pain, chronic lower back spinal issues and pelvic floor weakness. Since then, however, it has emerged as an oft-overused term for a seemingly fix-all for every problem. Don’t get me wrong, good ‘core stability’ is probably the most useful emergence in the prevention and rehabilitation of back pain and pelvic or lower limb overuse injuries in the past

20 years but the actual teaching of how to strengthen the ‘core’ usually leaves a lot to be desired. So what is ‘core stability’ exactly and why do so many fitness and health people put so much emphasis on it? (Beware: this gets a bit technical). Let’s start with the ‘core’ itself. The core is like a three dimensional
box in our abdomens. The four walls are formed by our deep abdominal and deep spinal muscles, the floor is formed by our pelvic floor and deep pelvic muscles, and the roof is formed by our diaphragm (which sits just below the sternum and assists with breathing). The function of the ‘core’ is to provide co-contraction and endurance of these postural muscles, rather than strength i.e. they need to work for long periods of time at a very low level in conjunction with arm and leg movements and also be strong enough to react to quick forceful movements that require a sudden spike in muscle activity or control. OK great – now let’s start strengthening the core.
Step 1: First make sure that you can contract these deep muscles well – that is, can you actually isolate a contraction of your deep abdominal and pelvic floor muscles? Most people with lower back pain or instability have trouble doing this and require one-to-one guidance on how to achieve this. The amount of clients, women and men, who have been doing high level core exercises at home or in the gym (sit-ups or crunches are a high level core activity) but cannot do this is remarkable. With these clients, physiotherapists will often use real time ultrasound to see the muscles in action as a person is learning to activate the muscles – similar to how you see a foetus on a maternal ultrasound screen we can see the

Royal salute to drivers By JESSE GRAHAM DRINK drivers were in the crosshairs as part of the Yarra Ranges Highway Patrol’s Operation Regal, but police said drivers were well behaved over the long weekend. Operation Regal ran from Friday 6 to Monday 9 June, with police targeting dangerous drivers as thousands drove through the Yarra Valley. Yarra Ranges Highway Patrol Leading Senior Constable (LSC) Graeme Rust said that 357 offences were recorded in the Yarra Ranges Police Service Area (PSA) – which ranked the area second across the state for offences. Of those offences, 17 people were charged with drink driving – the highest result across the state. Leading Sen Const Rust said the results were representative of the commitment police in the Yarra Ranges had towards keeping the roads safe. “The personnel in the Yarra Ranges did an outstanding job to reduce the number of collisions and drunk drivers on the road,” he said.

“But it also shows that there were 17 people out there silly enough to try and beat the odds,” he said. One of the standout incidents from the weekend included a ute driver who was intercepted in Coldstream on Saturday 7 June. The driver, a 19-year-old Fitzroy man, had two other passengers in the two-seat-
er vehicle, his rear P-plate not displayed, two bald back tyres and police detected alcohol in his system with a preliminary breath test. However, the driver refused to accompany police officers back to the station for a follow-up test. “He’s obviously indicated the presence of alcohol in his breath for us to
make a request to accompany police,” Leading Sen Const Rust said. “(But) he flat-out refused more than once,”he said. Leading Sen Const Rust said the driver would appear at the Ringwood Magistrates’ Court charged with refusing to accompany police for a breath test, driving without a rear P-plate, using an un-roadworthy vehicle and carrying a passenger occupying the same seating position as another. Refusing to accompany police for a breath test carries fines of up to $2000, loss of licence for up to two years and up to 18 months imprisonment, Leading Sen Const Rust said despite the incredible numbers heading into – and out of – town over the long weekend, drivers were mostly well-behaved. For drivers on public holidays and long weekends, his advice was simple: “Patience is a pre-requisite – basically, you must obey the road laws” he said. “If you cover your bases and plan your trip well ahead, you will usually have a good time.”
Green backlash after Seymour MP’s email slip By JESSE GRAHAM SEYMOUR MP Cindy McLeish has come under fire after accidentally forwarding an email from a community group, alleging that the group is politicallylinked. However, Ms McLeish has defended the email, and said it was sent in error and refers to a member of the group only. On 5 June, Healesville Environment Watch Incorporated (HEWI) chairman, Steve Meacher, sent an email submission in regards to VicForests’
Timber Release Plan. A copy was sent to Minister for Environment and Climate Change, Ryan Smith, and Seymour MP and Eildon candidate, Cindy McLeish. However, on 11 June, Mr Meacher received a reply from Ms McLeish, which began with a note to her staff: “Heather – not bothering to respond to the Greens. Please delete draft,” it read. Mr Meacher ran as a Greens candidate for the Federal seat of Casey in last year’s Federal Election.
However, Mr Meacher said the submission was sent on behalf of HEWI, which was not a politically-affiliated group, and that he believed the reply he received demonstrated Ms McLeish’s position in regards to environmental groups. Ms McLeish said she had erroneously sent on the email, and had actually meant not to respond, because the email was not explicitly directed to her. “If it was addressed just to me and it was something I needed to respond to, I would,” she said.
“This was a ‘cc’ (carbon copy) – I didn’t bother to respond because it was a ‘cc’.” As for her comment on the greens, Ms McLeish said she was referring to Mr Meacher’s political affiliation in last year’s election, and meant no offence by the comment. “It was an error,” she said. “I’ve listened to Mr Meacher and his group and their philosophy, and visited the forests on several occasions. “I show them a huge amount of respect – probably more than I get back.”
The offending email from Cindy McLeish, in response to a carbon copy (cc) email from HEWI’s Steve Meacher.
Dip in tip hours WESBURN Waste Transfer Station (tip) will have its opening times reduced to four days a week as from February next year. The reduction comes after a failed bid by the Healesville community at the the Yarra Ranges Council meeting on Tuesday 10 June to keep the Healesville tip open. Knox Transfer Station Pty Ltd agreed to let the council out of the remaining seven years of a 10-year contract to service the Healesville tip, in return for reducing open days at Wesburn. Mayor and Ryrie Ward councillor Fiona McAllister questioned the rationale behind allowing Knox Transfer Station to dictate the terms of keeping Wesburn in the contract when the tip was privatised, but not accepting Healesville. Only four submissions were made in relation to Wesburn - one in support of reducing open days on the basis it would help maintain viability, two against and one from a business wanting to assist with recycling programs. Healesville Action Group’s John Anwin also questioned the original contract, along with the gradual reduction in opening hours at Healesville over a period of time. “Is this the same strategy that is being used now to ultimately close Wesburn and will we be back in two years going through the same process for Wesburn?” Mr Anwin asked. –Kath Gannaway

Opinion Dose of truth COMMONSENSE can no longer be spoken. The “Thought Police� are armed with all sorts of “rights� and “sensitivity offended offences�. Reality: older women’s bodies are not as supple and fit as younger women’s bodies. Therefore, older women do have more trouble and complications at childbirth, and may then later have the triple-barreled load of husbands possibly going through mid-life crises, teenage children (more than possibly) being rebellious and unco-operative and, elderly parents (most probably) ailing! All these challenges to cope with, all at the same time. Sorry. Forgot the older mum going through her own change of life. But then again, we can’t state the obvious, nor speak the truth, regarding such matters. Or can we? Howard Hutchins, Chirnside Park
Steam a pipe dream WHAT a contrast between Federal Liberal Member Tony Smith and his leader Prime Minister Tony Abbott in relation to the expenditure of taxpayers’ money. While his leader is cutting back on a range of social welfare expenditure, his local member Tony Smith is promoting further expenditure of $3.5 million of taxpayers’ funds on the nostalgic dream of running a steam train between Healesville and Yarra Glen. This $3.5 million adds to the $3 million grant from the then Hawke Government. I am also concerned that the Yarra Ranges Council has dipped into ratepayers’ money to the tune of $250,000 for this unviable project – a bad precedent to set. Taxpayers of Healesville and Yarra Glen have been hearing the same promises from the railway committee for the past 30 years. I ask the taxpayers of Yarra Glen, Healesville and elsewhere whom have now contributed $6.5 million plus to

Send your letters to: editor@yvnews.com.au consider the following: Why set up another Puffing Billy when, only 40 minutes away, one already exists, which incidentally required $2.5 million of taxpayers’ money to keep it operating in 2013? How do the Yarra Valley Railway Committee’s plans stack up against the Belgrave Puffing Billy, which has operated for 55 years, has 900 volunteer workers, has moved 284,000 passengers in 2013 and has a route of 48 kilometres, yet has to be constantly propped up by taxpayer funds? If this is the best business acumen Tony Smith can promote, the taxpayer can only hope he doesn’t become a minister in the government. Ray Donkin, Healesville
He’s fed up WHO else is fed up to the back teeth with people like Adam Goodes (supposed, “Australian of the Year�) saying Australians are racist? Australia is one the least racist countries in the world! I have Aussie/Asian born relatives and I have for over 40 years visited Asia, the Mediterranean, the Americas, the UK, Oceania, Europe and Scandinavia. I’ve seen true racism and bigotry. Yes, it’s true: many Australians of Anglo, Celtic and Anglo/Celtic (and other European) origins get drunk and assault police, commit sex crimes, etc. So, why import/give refuge to people who – relative to their numbers here - have even more propensity to do so, even when not drunk? And I don’t give a bugger if they are white, yellow, tan or black. (And just what of the truly terrible racism/caste system of India?) I’ve seen this horrific violence from primitive peoples, white and black, in Europe, over many years. I know what is coming our way. By the way – how many black people settle in South East Asian countries? You are right, they don’t.

Time for restraint VICTORIA’S 79 councils are now entering the public consultation process of developing their budgets for 2014-’15. Council budget decisions will determine our rates, so I encourage councils to exercise restraint when determining their rates - just like all Victorian households they need to live within their means. Each year councils conduct consultation with residents and other stakeholders to seek their views about budget options for the coming year and beyond. The budget consultation gives you the opportunity to tell your council which services you think should be a priority for them to maintain and what infrastructure needs to be improved, replaced or constructed. This process includes a 28-day public consultation, submission period and opportunity to present to the council. In setting municipal budgets, councils need to comply with government guidelines in relation to equitable rating through use of differential rates, including consideration of a reduced differential rate for farm and retirement village land. Since we came to government, the average rate rise of councils has been on a consistent downward trend, from 8.0 per cent under Labor in 2010, down to 5.8 per cent this current financial year on average, after an 11.8 per cent peak in 2003-’04. This is a trend we are confident will continue. Cindy McLeish, State Liberal Member of Parliament for Seymour.

Healesville Girl Guides THERE was a representative gathering at the thanksgiving service of the Healesville Girl Guides in the Memorial Hall last Sunday afternoon. On the platform were the Reverend Martin and the local Salvation Army Captain who read the lesson and gave the prayer amid appropriate decorations of flags and gumtips. As the Guides and the Brownies entered the hall the choir and instrumentalists rendered ‘Onward Christian Soldiers’. This was followed by the National Anthem, prayers and scripture readings.

Millgrove Football Club MARYSVILLE deserved better treatment than that handed out by Millgrove Football Club last Saturday when the ‘Grove ‘threw in the towel’ because from all accounts they could not get sufficient players to make up a team. It was a holiday weekend and the match at Marysville would have been a great drawcard with so many holiday-makers in the town. Marysville certainly collected four premiership points for the walkover, but actually they were the ‘losers’ and this was a raw deal for a club that is noted for its sportsmanship.

Compost cell to fuel education for the world
BRIDGES TO BRIDGES TOPREP PREP Open afternoons for 3 and 4 year old kinder children ALL WELCOME
By KATH GANNAWAY CELEBRITY chef and compost enthusiast Maggie Beer will open the launch of a compact new compost system at Healesville later this month. The BioFuelcell is one of a number of inventions by Michael Morrison who has a very much greater vision in mind than simply dealing with food scraps. The BioFuelCell is a hightech, low-cost composting box that uses cardboard degradable horizontal baffles and is placed in the garden bed to do its magic. It is also the catalyst for an education and fund-raising venture that Mr Morrison said aims to bring schools, businesses and the community together. “I had a hard early life with very little education and want to make a difference for other kids now that I am having success,” he said. Mr Morrison has provisionally patented the BioFuelCell and said he has dedicated the profits raised to go to the free education of every child on the planet. Members of the businesses and wider community will have the opportunity at the launch to meet Ms Beer and Mr Morrison and to buy a BioFuelcell to donate to a local school. The launch is at The Memo Mike Morrison had a great response when he demonstrated in Healesville on Sunday 29 his BioFuelCell at Healesville Community Gardens. 122151 June at 11am.

Council defends use of outside legal eagles YARRA Ranges Council has defended its use of independent legal advice in a prosecution against the partner of Mayor Fiona McAlister. James Gray is chasing costs awarded against Yarra Ranges Council which took him to court in relation to the erection of election posters in Coldstream in 2012. The charges were ultimately withdrawn.
Mr Gray said the costs totalling $5500 were ordered to be paid by 28 May, but that he had not received any payment as of last week. In an email to Yarra Ranges Council, Mr Gray questioned the cost of replacing the council’s staff prosecutor with outside lawyers saying it was a waste of ratepayers’ money. The council’s Director Planning Andrew Paxton defended the decision.
In a return email responding to Mr Gray’s concerns, Mr Paxton wrote: “We chose to introduce an independent legal firm as they were involved in preparing council’s local law and to provide a buffer between a partner of a councillor and officers involved.” Mr Paxton also said the outstanding costs were in the system for payment. - KATH GANNAWAY

Trail link underway By JESSE GRAHAM THE Warburton Trail will be extended by 10 kilometres in the next two years, completing the track’s link into Melbourne and the bay. On Tuesday 10 June, Minister for Roads Terry Mulder announced $7.4 million to fund construction of a 10.3-kilometre trail that will connect the Warburton Rail Trail with Carrum. The new trail link will begin in Bayswater North and finish at the beginning of the Warburton Rail Trail in Lilydale and the total track will form the 90 kilometre Carrum-Warburton Cycle Link. Mr Mulder said currently cyclists trav-
elling in from the city had to finish their trail-riding and hit the roads, before getting on the Warburton Trail at Lilydale station. Once completed, the trail will allow riders to begin in Carrum and stay on the track through Bayswater North, Croydon and Mooroolbark, before travelling towards Warburton. Secretary of the Friends of the Lilydale to Warburton Rail Trail Incorporated, Phil Wallens, said the group was feeling very positive about the link being constructed. “It’s a very good thing,” he said. “It’s a desirable thing for a lot of people, who can hop on their bikes in the sub-
urbs in Melbourne and ride all the way up here.” Mr Wallens said that the finished trail would have a wide range of benefits for people closer to the city and in the Yarra Valley, and increased visitation to the area. “Not only will the construction of this new shared-path provide a safer way for cyclists to travel, but it will give locals and visitors the chance to access many of the wonderful sights this region has to offer,” Mr Mulder said. The $7.4 million funding is the result of a Coalition election promise in 2010, and the 10.3 kilometre trail is expected to be completed by mid-2016.

Cool summer is well on the cards LATE autumn and early winter rains over April and May have lifted optimism a little for the coming summer. In Healesville, Alma Mitchell recorded 120.5mm over 16 days in April compared with 19.0mm last year over 11 days. The May figures were 99.1mm over 24 days compared with 75.6mm over 19 days. Doug Armstrong in Hoddles Creek recorded 120mm
over 13 days in April compared to 34mm over nine days last year with the January to April figures 241mm this year compared to 206mm in 2013 over the same number of days - 27. For May, Doug’s figures are 102mm over 18 days compared with 112mm over 17 days last year. The comparative January to May figures are 342mm in 2014 to 318mm in 2013.
Best shorts bag awards By KATH GANNAWAY THE Warburton Film Festival over the weekend more than lived up to its sub-title “ ... a wonderland of films”. Starting on Friday with the ‘Show us your Shorts’ film competition for young and aspiring film-makers, to the nine international and Australian films shown over the weekend, the 31st festival received great reviews from film-goers, and from film industry guests. Crochet Noir, an animated film by Jessica Harris took out the Golden Shorts Award for Best Short Film of the Festi-
val and local film-makers also rated well. Matthew Holmes received the Senior Technical Excellence Award for his ‘chiller’ The Artifice, and Matthew Hughes received a Yarra Ranges Commendation Award for Quest II - the Road to Manhood. One of the six judges, Greg Nicholas, a member of the Yarra Ranges Film Society which hosts the festival, said the quality of the 18 films entered was consistently high again this year. A budding young actor from Mount Evelyn, Bailey
Barbour, was the audience favourite for his hair-raising performance as the black-eyed boy in ‘Artifice’. “He’s the cutest little kid,” YRFS president Joseph Guthrie told the audience after the Saturday night showing of the film. “Don’t worry, he told me he lives in Mount Evelyn, so we’re all right - there’s no bus between here and Mount Evelyn!” Other highlights were the Q&A sessions with guests including Fallout producer Peter Kaufmann and director Lawrence Johnston and Mystery Road producer David Jowsey.

Town’s double blow FOR the Healesville Chamber of Commerce, last Tuesday was a ‘bad news night’, with the announcement that the Healesville Waste Transfer Station and the ANZ bank were set to close. At the chamber’s Wednesday 11 June meeting, president Graham Taylor said the previous night’s Yarra Ranges Council meeting and ANZ bank meeting brought two lots of bad news for the town. “It was hardly what we’d call a good news night for Healesville,” he said. Despite certainty from ANZ bank representatives that the decision to close the local bank branch on 11 July
was final, Mr Taylor said the meeting provided the bank with issues to consider. “Basically, it’s nothing short of a disgrace that they’re closing,” he said. “We sent them away with some things to think about.” Mr Taylor expressed disappointment at the Yarra Ranges Council’s decision to close the Healesville tip as of 14 February next year. Yarra Ranges Mayor Fiona McAllister also spoke at the chamber meeting, saying she felt “flat” about the decision to close the tip - which she had opposed since the proposal was raised in March. “I feel that our voices weren’t heard,” she said.
Input sought on hospital re-vamp plan RESIDENTS are being asked to have their say on the multi-million dollar redevelopment of the Healesville and District Hospital as part of a new liaison group. Eastern Health proposed the liaison group last week, and is calling for community members to join and to give feedback on the hospital redevelopment as it takes place. Eastern Health’s manager of Consumer Participation and Patient Experience, Tanya Hendry, said group members would be able to hear updates on the hospital first-hand. “The expansion of the Healesville and District Hospital and Yarra Valley Community Health is exciting news for residents,” she said. “We value their feedback and this is a great way for them to ensure their voice is heard,” she said. As part of the liaison group, residents will be able to have drop-in sessions at the hospital to hear about the expansion works. The hospital’s redevel-
opment comes as a result of a $7.8 million grant from the State Government. Once completed, the Healesville Hospital will have a new operating theatre, a renal dialysis unit and improved patient capacity, among other features. Eastern Health has confirmed that space will also be provided in the upgraded hospital for a birthing room and ensuite. However, a statement from the organisation said that birthing services would be provided “when and if demand for birthing services across the Yarra Ranges increases and Eastern Health is able to provide a safe and sustainable birthing service.” Designs for the expansion works are expected to be completed before the end of the year, with all of the works to be completed by early 2016. For more information on the redevelopment liaison team for the Healesville Hospital, contact Tanya Hendry on 5969 9951 or email healesvillefeedback@easternhealth. org.au.
“I need to support that decision, now that it’s made, but I think it’s a core service that we never should have lost.” Cr McAllister also spoke on the importance of the impending changes to the Bushfire Management Overlay (BMO) which will allow property owners to build in areas that were previously restricted. She said the changes, which included allowing fire bunkers to lower overall risk and limits to vegetation clearing obligations, will help many Yarra Ranges residents who couldn’t build previously. “It effectively recognises that people can’t control what happens outside of their property boundaries,” Cr
McAllister said. Independent Eildon candidate Bruce Argyle spoke to the chamber members about his work with the Save Healesville Hospital Group (SHHAG) and the group’s upcoming fund-raiser. Cr McAllister also spoke on the topic, as chair of the group, and said that an independent business case study on the hospital would begin as soon as Health Minister David Davis signed off on releasing Eastern Health financial data. She said that progress had also been made on the Healesville Structure Plan, which is being created by the council, with a draft to be released to the community later this year.
Unreserved support for new facility By JESSE GRAHAM WOORI Yallock residents came out in force on the weekend to see the official opening of the town’s stunning new community reserve, and plans for events are already taking shape. Over 60 people gathered on Saturday 14 June to commemorate the opening of the WYTAG Reserve, which features an amphitheatre, picnic tables, seating, and a flagpole for community use. The reserve was a project undertaken by the Woori Yallock Township Action Group (WYTAG), and WYTAG’s president and treasurer, Rick and Val Shaw cut the official ribbon with Seymour MP and Eildon candidate Cindy McLeish and Yarra Ranges Council’s Jim Child. Mr Shaw said the space doubled as a recreational area for community members and an amphitheatre for events, such as carols, outdoor church services or even Anzac Day services. “It’s a really nice area for people to take a break,” he said. Mr Shaw said the reserve was already getting a lot of use from community members and those passing through the area. The reserve was funded by the Victorian Government, through a Community Support Grant of $50,000, Yarra Ranges Council with $24,998 and Bendigo Bank’s Woori Yallock Community Bank, with $30,000. Ms McLeish, representing Planning Minister Matthew Guy at the opening, said the

Society’s party time HEALESVILLE Historical Society this Thursday night, 19 June, would like you all to attend a very special Healesville 150th Birthday Party, at the RACV Club at 6.30pm. Andrew Mackenzie, OAM, will be donating 300 historic photos of Healesville to the society, and it is an open invitation to Healesville citizens to attend. The ‘Greetings from Healesville’ project, from the collection of Andrew Mackenzie, OAM, features many pictures that have never been seen in public. The collection includes photos from the ‘Rose’ collection, which were taken in and around Healesville from 1918-1960s. A rotating display of the photos will be up for viewing for the rest of the year at the Bendigo Community Bank in Healesville’s main street. See you at the RACV Club on Thursday evening for this very special event. And while we are on the subject of photos, have you entered the A Different Slice of Life: Photos of Healesville in 2014 competition yet? Healesville Living and Learning Centre, in Badger Creek Road, welcome entries right up until the first week of October, and an exhibition will be held from 7 November. There are three entry sections to cover all ages: Junior up to 12 years, Youth: 12 - 20 years, and Adults 20 years and over. Perhaps the picture you take in 2014, will have pride of place at Healesville’s 200th Birthday Celebration? - THE STEERING COMMITTEE
Woori Yallock community members at the official opening of the WYTAG Reserve on the weekend. 122237 reserve would be a hub where community members could hold performances, festivals and markets. She praised WYTAG for their efforts in revitalising the space, which she said was once an “under-utilised” area overgrown with weeds and strewn with graffiti. “(WYTAG Reserve) is tes-
tament to the renewal efforts of local residents who humbly but diligently started caring for the site many years ago,” Ms McLeish said. The reserve can seat around 90 people, and is now open for public use. For more information, visit www.wytag.org.au.

Dust of Uruzgan By REBECCA BILLS HE WAS the first Australian diplomat to be posted to Uruzgan, Afghanistan in July 2009 and the last to leave in 2013. Fred Smith, who now spends most of his time based in Canberra, is bringing his time in the war-torn country to the stage through song. Combining humour, commentary and a stunning set of projected photographs by military and civilian photographers, Mr Smith is able to tell the stories from someone who was there and witnessed it all. Mr Smith said he commenced working for the Foreign Affairs Department when he was 26 years old and that was the time that he started to write songs. “When I would go away on holidays from Afghanistan, writing was my outlet, it would all just pour out,” he said. “You were working six and a half days a week and living in a shipping container with a war going on around you. “It can be quite fun but then every now and again someone you are working with gets killed - it’s quite an intense experience.”
Fred Smith performing. 122011 Picture: GEOFFREY DUNN Mr Smith said his show, The Dust of Uruzgan, was for the Australian public to learn what Afghanistan was all about and to understand the experiences of 10,000 young Australians who, for the past eight years, had struggled to make a difference in one of the poorest provinces in a war-ravaged country. “It’s been a slow process of im-
provement,” he said. “It wasn’t in good shape when the coalition forces started coming in after 9/11. “The economy had gone to scratch, conditions for women were appalling and only one million kids were in school - none of them were girls.” Mr Smith said although there was still a long way to go for the country, there had been a big improvement since his initial time in the country and there are now eight million children in schools - 3.2 million of them girls. “Health facilities are improving, life expectancy is going up and they now have a reasonably cohesive government as the elections went well,” he said. “There is still a long way to go but there has been a big improvement and that’s one of the things I talk about in the show. “I’m in a fortunate position to talk about this.” Mr Smith said after leaving for Afghanistan in 2009, he returned to Australian in 2011 and recorded his album and toured the country.
“In 2013 I went back to Afghanistan for six months and was involved in a few of the ceremonies to hand over the country to authorities and remember the soldiers that were killed.” Fred Smith: Dust of Uruzgan is showing at the Burrinja Theatre on Thursday 19 June, Montrose Town Hall on Saturday 21 June and The Memo in Healesville on Friday 20 June. Tickets $22 for adults and $18 for concession. For more information or to book tickets, call 1300 368 333. THE Mail is giving three lucky readers a chance to win a double pass to Fred Smith: Dust of Uruzgan at Burrinja Theatre, Montrose Town Hall and The Memo. To go into the draw to win two tickets to one of the events, visit the Mail Facebook page at www.facebook.com/ MailNewspaperGroup and like, comment either ‘Burrinja’, ‘Montrose’ or “The Memo’ (for your preferred venue) and share the related post. Winners will be announced on Wednesday 18 June at 10am on the Mail’s Facebook page.
Short time leads to a good time By BESS ZEWDIE ON Saturday 21 June, the Healesville community will come together to observe the shortest day of the calendar year, the winter solstice. ‘Midwinter Rebirth’ will take place at the Healesville Community Labyrinth, where members of the community can enjoy a dance before dawn, a guided labyrinth walk, and a cooked breakfast by a warm fire - all for a gold coin donation. Organised by the Healesville Labyrinth Committee, the event is a part of ‘Healesville 150th’, a year-long affair celebrating the town’s rich 150-year history. The winter solstice celebration is
among a long list of exhibitions, workshops, music festivals, and other family-friendly events being held throughout this year to honour the milestone. The Healesville Labyrinth Committee believes the winter solstice, as well as the labyrinth backdrop, provides a great opportunity to bring Healesville residents together, and promote community values. “It’s another one of the events that sits under the ‘Healesville 150th’ banner,” a representative from the Healesville Labyrinth Committee says. “Labyrinths are very old, they’ve been around for thousands of years, and a lot of non-religious peoples have used
Olene Simon, Peter Wadham, Ty Stryk, Amy Dowsett and Judy Osbourne are excited for the Midwinter Rebirth event on Saturday. 122152
Picture: JESSE GRAHAM labyrinths as a central place of spirituality for such a long time. “Midwinter, the solstices and the equinoxes are events that used to be celebrated regularly, so it ties in quite nicely.” The Healesville Community

New ‘Locale’ found for art By KATH GANNAWAY THE theme of ‘Locale’ provided a natural gallery of inspiration for artists exhibiting in the Upper Yarra Artisans - Warburton Art Show 2014. Works in a range of media from oil and acrylic to pastel, pencil, watercolour and photography are part of the exhibition that will run through to 2 July at the Upper Yarra Arts Centre. The official opening and awards presentation was held on Thursday, 5 June. Under the theme “A location or place of interest to the artist”, the artists looked close to home for inspiration with many of the works depicting scenes and capturing unique perspectives of the Yarra Valley. Launching Place artist Jane Fitzherbert was awarded first prize in the oil/acrylic section for “In the farm shed’ which judge Catherine Hamilton chose for the artist’s “ ... use of simplicity of shape and palette to create atmosphere and depth”. Gina Baines took out first prize in the pastel, watercolour, works on paper section with her pastel “Alchemy”, and Cindy Lever was awarded first prize in the photography section for her metallic print, “Toffee Apple”. The Catherine Hamilton Drawing Award went to Joke Frijlink for “Walking to la la falls”. Works are on show and on sale at the Upper Yarra Arts Centre until Wednesday, 2 July.
MOVIES E’S IE RN OV U O M LB ST S ME APERICE E P CH
The stars have aligned THE Fault In Our Stars is a moving, hopeful film about love blossoming even when fate gives you a death sentence. Adapted from John Green’s bestselling novel, the film stars Shailene Woodley as Hazel, a teenager with lung cancer who falls in love with Augustus (Ansel Elgort), a cancer survivor she meets at her support group. The Fault In Our Stars is a very touching, convincing love story. Woodley and Elgort work great together and have charming chemistry, as their characters grow closer through their interests, shared pain and mutual love for a novel. The main story arc concerns Hazel learning
that she shouldn’t shut the world out because of her terminal illness, but rather embrace all the happiness she can get in the time she has left. But to engage with this issue properly, the film doesn’t shy away from the discomfort and distressing, sometimes messy trauma of such illnesses. As such, The Fault In Our Stars is a nice, inspiring romance that doesn’t dehumanise its characters by sugarcoating their lives. Furthermore, the film has a sad twist in the final act that you see coming but still knocks the wind out of you. The film also has natural moments of witty, respectful humour, and Willem Dafoe makes a brilliant cameo as Hazel and Augustus’s grizzled author hero. There’s no fault in these stars.

Warby all the way Worawa centre Stephanie Williams in action. Looking on, Seville’s Emmy Alford and Tarli Lovelock, Worawa’s Katarina Perry. 122227
Top netball facility underway By KATH GANNAWAY WITH work now underway on a new netball facility for the Lilydale Yarra Valley Netball Association, more than 2000 netballers from over 20 clubs are playing their last seasons at Mooroolbark. The $6.59million Pink’s Reserve project at Kilsyth is being built as a collaboration between Yarra Ranges Council ($5.5m), $500,000 from the State Government, $450,000 from the LYVNA and $50,000 from Bendigo Bank. Netballers from Mount Evelyn, Worawa and Seville were among girls representing more than 20 clubs who took to the Mooroolbark courts on Saturday.
Worawa’s Alisha Gurruwiwi goes for goal, defended by Seville keepers Tammy Eastham and Breanna Burnham, with Worawa’s Branesha Farrow also in play in the Under 15 Section 4 game. 122227 Pictures: KATH GANNAWAY
YVMDFNL Wrap: Round 9 Division 1 A Grade Netball Warburton Millgrove 43 d Emerald 30 EMERALD started this game well enough and led Warby by two goals at quarter time. But Warby got on top in the second term with good ball movement scoring 14 goals-to-seven to go to half time with a five-goal buffer. The third term while not high scoring still belonged to Warby as they scored 10 goals while holding Emerald to just four. Warby finished the day outscoring Emerald by two goals in the last to run out 13-goal winners in a reasonably solid performance. Warburton Millgrove best players: A. Bryan, J. Lord, K. Wappett. Emerald best players: S. Campbell (15 goals), L. Whyte, L. Moses. Mount Evelyn 50 d Woori Yallock 37 THIS game was a really tough contest for the first half as it went goal-for-goal and at half time Mount Evelyn was up by just two goals. The third quarter opened up a bit for Mount Evelyn as they started to find space and more openings to goal; they scored 12 goals-to-six and got out to a handy eight-goal lead at the last change. Mount Evelyn finished the game well, scoring 13 last-quarter goals-to-eight to win by 13 goals in a match where they just had the edge over their opponents when it really mattered. Mount Evelyn best players: J. Walker, E. Beazleigh, G. Kirley. Woori Yallock best players: S. Southwick, C. Stafford, J. Terry. Wandin 59 d Belgrave 42 WANDIN was just that little classier throughout this game never giving Belgrave any real chance to get back into the game after quarter time. Wandin led by six goals at the first break and just slowly increased their lead as the game progressed. Wandin led by nine goals at the last change and then finished the day strong with a 15 goalto-seven last term to win the game in good style. Wandin best players: S. Coppinger, J. Cullimore (34 goals), C. Baker (24 goals). Belgrave best players: L. Bennett (38 goals), D. Marcus, L. Read. Monbulk Hawks 43 d Healesville 40 THIS was a ripper game with no more than three goals separating the sides at any change. Monbulk held just a two-goal lead at quarter time, but Healesville reversed that trend in the second and by half time had gained a three-goal advantage after a 13 goal-to-eight term. Monbulk defended hard in the third, and it was paying dividends as they ran the ball well from
defence creating scoring chances shooting 12 goals-to-six for the term and at the last change they now led by three goals. The last quarter was a goal-for-goal affair, but it was Monbulk that held onto their lead to come out winners in what was a great contest. Monbulk best players: B. Northey, A. Barwick, S. Byatt (14 goals). Healesville best players: L. Woodgate (20 goals), C. Connell, C. Jeffress. Upwey Tecoma 57 d Olinda Ferny Creek 24 UPWEY was never really troubled although Olinda did battle hard early, but it was short lived as Upwey showed their dominance, jumping out to a 15-goal lead by half time. Upwey really put the game to bed in the third, scoring 15 goals-to-four to jump out to a 26-goal lead at the last change. Olinda did show some spirit in the last, scoring eight goals but Upwey still had the upper hand shooting 13 goals to win comfortably in the end. Upwey Tecoma best players: G. Hankinson, K. Tomlinson, M. Kennerley (34 goals). Olinda Ferny Creek best players: D. Portarianos, M. Thomas (12 goals), A. Wall. Division 2 A Grade Netball Seville 51 d Yarra Junction 16 SEVILLE was nothing short of excellent as they really did make short work of a disappointing Yarra Junction. Seville got out to a 16-goal lead by half time and probably weren’t at their absolute best, but it was good enough to grab a very handy lead. Seville really kicked into action in the second half as they dried up Yarra Junction scoring, holding them to just another six goals for the match while they piled on another 25 to win by a very impressive 35 goals. Seville best players: M. Scully, M. Wyatt, Z. Abbruzzese (23 goals). Yarra Junction best players: J. Allen, R. Young, J. Wallace. Powelltown 48 d Kinglake 26 KINGLAKE did take it up to Powelltown for a quarter as they led by two goals at the first change. But after that, Powelltown took control with a 14 goal-to-four second term to grab an eight-goal lead going into half time. The second half Powelltown did dominate the play, every time Kinglake would score a goal, Powelltown seemed to answer with two of their own. Powelltown scored 27 second half goals-to-13 to win by a very healthy 22 goals. Powelltown best players: A. Dunford (12 goals), M. Finlay, N. Armstrong (4 goals). Kinglake best players: E. Coen (11 goals),
A. Luks (15 goals), S. Redfern. Yarra Glen 34 d Yea 30 YARRA GLEN had to fight off a very plucky Yea side to remain the only undefeated side in the comp. Yea took it right up to the league leaders early and scores were tied at seven- all at the first change. The next two quarters were a battle, but it was Yarra Glen that had a little more poise when it came to the goals as they got out to a handy sixgoal lead by the last change. The last quarter saw Yea throw everything at Yarra Glen to give them a chance, but Yarra Glen did stand tall to hold off Yea who did come back slightly but not enough to cause an upset, with Yarra Glen finally winning by four goals in an entertaining battle. Yarra Glen best players: G. Taylor (22 goals), S. Moate, N. Braden. Yea best players: M. Leatham (6 goals), C. Spagnolo (16 goals), J. Graham Thornton Eildon: bye Alexandra: bye

Warby on a roll: third win YVMDFNL WRAP: ROUND 9 FIRST DIVISION SENIORS
Warburton Millgrove 14.12 (96) d Emerald 10.10 (70) WARBURTON notched up their third win of the season with a hard fought 26-point win over Emerald. Emerald are yet to win a game this year, but they were in with a real shot in this game as they led at quarter time by 13 points on the back of some good team play. Warby clawed their way back in the second term, but still trailed by two points at the main break. The third quarter was where the game broke open as Warburton started to find more space which created more opportunities to score. They booted five goals-to-one to take a fourgoal lead into the last quarter. The last term was an even contest, with both sides booting three goals, but it was Warburton’s third quarter that was the catalyst for their victory. Warburton Millgrove best players: T. Walker, G. Morris, A. Pettinella (1 goal). Emerald best players: M. Dompietro, M. Livermore (1 goal), J. Taylor (4 goals). Monbulk 21.13 (139) d Healesville 10.8 (68) MONBULK has bounced back to winning form with a terrific four- quarter performance over a Healesville side that was denied any real run. Monbulk started well, booting four goals-totwo in the first term, but realistically could have been further in front with the amount of play they had. The second quarter saw Monbulk stretch their lead as they put on another five majors to Healesville’s two and at the long break, it was Monbulk leading by a very handy 34 points. The second half was more of the same; Healesville certainly weren’t playing bad but Monbulk was just a class above for the entire match. They had multiple scoring options and actually finished the day with three of their players scoring five majors. Monbulk outscored Healesville 12 goals-tosix in the second half to win by a hefty 71 points in a fine performance. Monbulk best players: S. Whittington (1 goal), J. Anderson, K. Gray. Healesville best players: N. Mende, H. Prest (1 goal), P. Monk (1 goal). Upwey Tecoma 16.10 (106) d Olinda Ferny Creek 9.22 (76) UPWEY sit one game clear on top of the ladder after beating a dreadfully inaccurate Olinda by five goals.

Tim Costigan lays a solid tackle. 122257
Upwey was by far the better side when it came to capitalising on its opportunities which top sides do, whereas Olinda just couldn’t seem to get the ball through the big sticks. At half time, Upwey led by 38 points but in fact had two less scoring shots than Olinda with a score line of Upwey: 11.5 (71) to Olinda: 3.15 (33). The second half of this game was played more on Olinda’s terms as they did outscore Upwey 6.7-to-5.5 in the half, but Olinda’s early inaccuracy cost them while Upwey’s composure was all
class when it mattered which gained them a welldeserved victory. Upwey Tecoma best players: B. Hinton (1 goal), S. Currey (2 goals), S. Gooley. Olinda Ferny Creek best players: N. Broomhall, O. Millwood (1 goal), T. Millwood (2 goals). Wandin 19.20 (134) d Belgrave 6.8 (44) WANDIN found some of their best form with a massive 90-point win over a Belgrave side that looks devoid of confidence. Wandin shot out to a 26-point lead at the first break, but it was their second quarter that put the game out of Belgrave’s reach. They booted six goals while holding Belgrave to just three points, and at half time Wandin’s lead was a match winning 62 points. Wandin continued their good form in the third, booting five goals but Belgrave did at least show a small amount of fight slotting three majors. The last quarter saw Wandin boot three goalsto-one to finish the day with the sort of victory they have been looking for this season, and maybe the start of something going forward for the rest of the year. Wandin best players: K. Talevski (4 goals), H. Dudink (1 goal), J. Bayliss (2 goals). Belgrave best players: S. Nicholson, C. Kelf, J. McDermott. Woori Yallock 12.18 (90) d Mount Evelyn 3.10 (28) IN A game that was touted as being one of the matches of the round turned out to be anything but. Woori was dominant from start to finish. They started the day on fire with a seven-goal first term while Mount Evelyn could only manage two behinds. The second term was a bit of a non event with goals hard to come by, with both sides scoring one major but it was Woori up by 45 points at the half and in complete control. Any chance of a Mount Evelyn comeback was quickly put to rest in the third as Woori booted three goals to Mount Evelyn’s one and their lead was an insurmountable 59 points at the last break. The last quarter was a slog in tough conditions with both sides scoring a goal, but this game belonged to Woori Yallock from the first bounce. Woori Yallock best players: B. Monkhorst (3 goals), M. Bonuda, M. Witkowski. Mount Evelyn best players: A. Gibbons (1 goal), C. Urquhart, R. Davis.
