Merry Christmas AND A HAPPY NEW YEAR
■ Help was at hand when disaster struck...
Road to new life By LACHLAN MOORHEAD IT TOOK just a split second for tragedy to strike. Often that’s all it takes. Teenager Josh Evans was riding his mountain bike along a quad track in Healesville just over a year ago, on 27 November 2014, when he went over a jump too quickly. The 18-year-old from Narre Warren North was thrown over his handle bars and broke his neck. He was left a quadriplegic and bound to a wheelchair. On the eve of beginning his VCE year at Gleneagles Secondary College in Endeavour Hills, Josh’s life changed forever. At the time of the accident Josh said he felt like he was only on the ground for five minutes, but he later learned he’d been there for roughly two hours as emergency services were called in and the teenager was airlifted off the track and rushed to hospital. It was his home for the next six months. “I couldn’t move anything, I had tubes down my throat to help me breath, feeding tubes,” Josh said. “Now I can move my arms but can’t move my wrist or fingers... there’s nothing in my legs.” Since the accident Josh has undergone intensive physiotherapy under the guidance of local physiotherapist Tri Ngo. Josh said he owes a lot to Tri who often visits him at home and has helped the teenager gradually assimilate into his new life. It’s the reason why Josh has thrown his support behind the I Love My Physio campaign, co-ordinated by the Australian Physiotherapy Association (APA), which aims to raise awareness about the role physiotherapists play in
Josh Evans and his mum Leanne. 148297 improving the lives of Australians. “He’s an inspiration to me,” Josh said of Tri. No one should have to go through what Josh has, and the 18-year-old is open about how tough the last year has been on him, his girlfriend and his family.

The financial strain is also telling, with the cost of medical treatment and even little things like catching a taxi to and from school every day. But he credits his loved ones with giving him the strength he needs, and Josh is resolute that he won’t let his injury hold him back from finishing school,
and going on to study at university. “This year I was meant to play footy, so I still watch my mates, I wish I could get out there and play with them, so that makes it hard.” he said. “But I’ve got a lot more feeling back than I should have, I shouldn’t be able to move my arms at all.
“I just want to get back and keep doing what I love.” To contribute to Josh’s Go Fund Me page, visit www.gofundme.com/ yucrcpek. For more information on the I Love My Physio campaign, visit ilovemyphysio.com.au.

Plan ahead to beat the heat this summer As temperatures continue to climb, the City of Casey is urging residents to plan ahead and take a number of steps to beat the heat this summer. Heatwaves and extreme heat days are becoming a regular feature of the Victorian summer and it is important residents take them seriously to ensure they stay healthy when the heat hits. Council urges residents to adhere to the following tips:  Never leave children or pets in cars: Hot cars can kill. The temperature inside a parked car can double within minutes, putting pets and children at risk of serious heat-related illnesses and possibly death.  Stay cool indoors: Keep air circulating around you and use air conditioning and fans if possible. Take a cool shower if you feel hot. If it’s too hot at your place consider visiting an air-conditioned, indoor public place.  Take care of yourself: Drink plenty of water and take a bottle with you when you’re out and about. If you must be outdoors, remember to protect yourself from the sun by sticking to the shade, covering exposed skin with lightweight clothes and wearing sunscreen and a hat. Take it easy and avoid too much physical activity on a hot day.  Watch out for others: Check on family, friends and neighbours most at risk, particularly those who are older, sick or frail, to make sure they are okay.

Manhunt after woman Merry Christmas stabbed in the face and Happy By CAMERON LUCADOU-WELLS AND LACHLAN MOORHEAD
New Year
POLICE have released an image of a man who is wanted over a stabbing and car theft in Berwick on Monday 14 December. Christos Papathanasiou, 32, is believed to have known a 41-year-old woman who suffered serious stab wounds at a Strathavan Drive home about 9.30am. The victim was rushed to hospital with non-life-threatening facial injuries. Casey CIU detectives said that about the same time a man demanded car keys from an occupant at an unrelated residence in nearby Earlsfield Drive and drove off in their car. No one was injured at the Earsfield Drive house. The stolen green 1993 Toyota Corolla sedan, with registration number NOJ 386, has not been located. Papathanasiou is about 178 centimetres tall with a medium build and short dark hair. He was last seen wearing a dark-coloured T-shirt and shorts. The wanted man is known to frequent Cranbourne, Narre Warren, Berwick and Dandenong. He has links to Queensland and may possibly be attempting to travel north through New South Wales. Police have advised members of the public not to approach Papathanasiou but to phone triple zero immediately if they see him or the stolen car.
THIS is the final edition of the Berwick News for 2015. It has been a big year for the paper, its staff and readers. A highlight was the special commemorative edition in April marking the 100th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing. This year has also seen the Berwick News website transformed into the premier site for the coverage of breaking news, crime, politics and community events in the City of Casey. The first edition of the Berwick News for 2016 will be published on Thursday 14 January. In it we will take a look back at the newsmakers, photographs and front pages that stood out in 2015. We will also name the Berwick News Person of the Year. In 2016, the News will continue to provide readers with comprehensive coverage of local events whether you choose to read the printed newspaper, view stories via the website or follow us on Facebook. All staff at the News wish our valued readers and advertisers a very Merry Christmas and a safe and happy 2016.

Pipe bomb detonated at police station after find said the bomb had the potential to explode and cause serious damage if it had been dropped. “The bomb response team was immediately called because it was quite obvious that it was pretty dangerous,” Sen Sgt Maroney said. The bomb was detonated at the station by an Arson and Explosives Unit robot. Sen Sgt Maroney said it was a dangerous incident. “The member of the public was very diligent but it was very dangerous to pick up the bomb and

transport it to a police station,” he said. “By bringing it in it puts police and members of the public who might be in the station in danger.” “It was made to go bang and had the potential to kill if someone was standing by it.” The incident is currently under investigation but Sen Sgt Maroney said it may have been made by children. “They might have got scared, left it and fled,” he said.
“It’s so easy to make these things these days with the internet but we want to use this as an example to remind people to call us, don’t stand over it and move away if they come across one of these.” “People aren’t always aware that radio and mobile devices can set these things off and there’s a whole host of things the community wouldn’t be aware of safety wise.” Anyone with information on the burglary is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Shared beliefs By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS THERE will be no shortage of joy at Asylum Seekers Resource Centre’s Christmas party thanks to Tehana Ranatunga’s generosity. Eschewing a 21st birthday party and gifts, the Endeavour Hills biotechnology student has requested donations to the ASRC’s festive celebration at its Dandenong office. Ms Ranatunga is ensuring it will be quite a party for up to 100 asylum seeker families, volunteers and staff. She’s helped organise a gumball machine, a photo booth, fun Santa hats and moustaches, and hampers and gifts for volunteers and more than 50 asylum seeker children. In the meantime, local eatery Ginger Jones is cooking the halal turkey and halal lamb, and individuals are dropping off toys to the Lonsdale Street office. “I’m touched there are so many generous people helping on this,” Ms Ranatunga said. “It wouldn’t feel right to have a 21st when I could do this.” ASRC office manager Mehtag Williams said she was impressed how someone so young could be so kind. “We all said in the office that when we were 21, we didn’t have that sort of thought process. “It’s really great to meet something like her.” Ms Williams said most of her clients were Muslim but they wanted to take part in the traditionally Christian celebration. “They really want to be part of Australian culture. Not one has said they don’t want to come to the party.” She and her family embody the

Ms Williams as a Turkish-born Muslim, her husband is an English-born son of a Protestant priest, and her two children requested to be inducted Catholics. “We like to embrace everything.
“Religion shouldn’t be a separation. If anything, it should bring people together.” ASRC Dandenong manager Rosa Misitano said the party aimed to share the Christmas spirit. “Religion doesn’t really become
a factor. We all want the same thing world peace would be a good thing.” To donate, go to www.youcaring. com/asrc-asylum-seeker-resourcecenter-472680 or drop off gifts to 179 Lonsdale Street, Dandenong.

Lake risk is assessed
Fine eyes on traffic
By LACHLAN MOORHEAD
THE first red-light camera has finally been installed at a treacherous Narre Warren intersection. The camera, set up at the intersection of Narre Warren North and Ernst Wanke roads, was approved last year under the previous State Government and will become operational in the first half of 2016. It followed a vigorous local campaign, which saw a 400-signature petition presented to State Parliament. Roads Minister and Narre Warren North MP Luke Donnellan said 12 crashes had occurred at the intersection in the last five years. The new cameras will be able to detect both speed and red-light offences. “We’re making this intersection safer for everyone including school children."
After several tragedies, safety is the number one priority at Lysterfield Lake this summer. Casey Cr Louise Berkelmans (front) with, from left, Parks Victoria Area Chief Ranger Darren Mitchell, Parks Victoria District Manager Libby Jude, Lifesaving Victoria General Manager Andrew Foran, Cr Rosalie Crestani, Cr Rafal Kaplon, and Inspector Paul Breen.148400 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS longer “marred by tragedy”. “The interagency partnership was formed out of a desire to work together to reduce the chances of another person drowning,” he said. “It’s been vital we work to-
gether and seeing the success of what has been achieved so far from this partnership has been really encouraging. “Safety around water is not just the responsibility of the park manager or the council.
Burglars’ eyes on Narre North NARRE Warren North has had more burglaries in the past year than any other Casey suburb. According to RACV crime stats over the 2014/15 financial year one in every 35 houses in Narre Warren North was targeted by thieves.
And the records show Endeavour Hills to be Casey’s safe haven with one in every 112 households burgled. But RACV experts say it doesn’t matter where you live this holiday season with all homes a target.
The northern crime hot spot has been largely affected, with just one in every 86 homes burgled in Narre Warren itself. The second most burgled suburb in Casey was Hallam with one in every 55 households targeted.

AN INTERAGENCY report assessing safety risks at Lysterfield Lake was released this week, almost two years after a five-yearold boy drowned at the site. Casey Council and Parks Victoria funded the Life Saving Victoria report to identify hazards at the lake and suggest safety measures, which comes after three reported drownings at Lysterfield Lake since 1 July 2000, according to LSV statistics. Representatives met on Tuesday morning to officially launch the Lysterfield Lake Aquatic Risk Assessment report, including Parks Victoria district manager Libby Jude, Casey Police Inspector Paul Breen, and Casey councillor Louise Berkelmans, who has been very vocal on the issue. Already Parks Victoria has installed high-visibility ‘no swimming’ buoys in the no-swimming zones, and well as increased signage and alterations to previous signage to delineate between the lake’s swimming areas and boating areas. Casey mayor Sam Aziz said precautions needed to be put in place to ensure the lake was no
“It’s up to all of us to ensure we are all aware of the inherent dangers around our magnificent lakes and swimming pools and to ensure that we all take the right precautions to ensure an enjoyable day by the water isn’t marred
by tragedy”. A five-year-old Rowville boy drowned at Lysterfield Lake on 2 February, 2014, despite paramedics' best efforts to resuscitate the child for up to an hour. He was reported missing to police and was located in the lake soon after by his father. It was the second drowning at the lake in just over a year. In January 2013, a Cranbourne West man drowned at the site while trying to rescue two children who had been using a dinghy. The children made it back to shore unharmed. Inspector Paul Breen said Victoria Police had increased patrols at Lysterfield Park since the tragedies and indicated these would continue. “Now we urge the public to do their part and make responsible decisions so everyone can enjoy the lake at Lysterfield Park without incident this summer,” he said. The Lysterfield Lake Aquatic Risk Assessment report is available on Parks Victoria’s website, at www.parks.vic.go.au, or call 131 963.

Cult of religion CASEY council’s support for special religious education in state schools is really anti-educational (Council Backing Schools Religious Studies, Berwick News, Thursday 3 December). If Casey parents and students need religious indoctrination they always have the option of attending a Christian or faith-based school of their own choice. Religion, however, should not be taught in a state school at any time of the day. Education is about opening up the mind to inquiry and science; religion is about brain washing. Real education leads to independence in life while submission to religion leads to domination by cult figures and fear. Perhaps this is what our mayor and councillors really believe: that Casey residents and ratepayers should submit to their domination? John Glazebrook, Endeavour Hills.

MORE than 50 Cranbourne residents from the upmarket Brookland Greens estate attended the Casey council meeting on Tuesday 15 December to protest against two share houses that are set to be built in the estate. Carrying protest posters the angry residents shouted their demands from the gallery and gathered outside the chamber to listen to their ward councillor Geoff Ablett explain the council’s next step. The residents were not notified of the development because shared houses do not need a planning permit or ministerial approval. A journalist from the Seven News team was also present at the Casey council chambers for the protest.
HAPPY Birthday Casey! It’s about time council grew up! It has been 21 years since the amalgamation of the Berwick and Cranbourne shires which now make up the City of Casey.
The 21st anniversary was celebrated with a speech from the two longest serving councillors, Wayne Smith and Mick Morland. Cr Smith said the historic occasion was quite controversial adding that he didn’t think it was a good idea at the time. “But in hindsight we’ve found bigger is probably better,” he said. City of Casey CEO Mike Tyler has also served the region as long as Mick and Wayne have and said that when he started there were just 135,000 people living in both shires. “Now we’re the largest municipality in the state,” he said. ANY doubts that policing is a dangerous job? A wildly behaving man was deemed to be too unsafe to bring into the courtroom from the Dandenong police cells on 7 December. Police officers were keen to avoid his attempts to spit on them, especially since he was diagnosed as HIV.
LOCAL MP Luke Donnellan would not get dragged into a slanging match after the state opposition sent out an entertaining photo earlier this month of the serving Roads Minister protesting against toll roads when Jeff Kennett was premier. The photo shows a much younger Narre Warren North MP standing next to a sign which says "Jeff says pay toll here", and wearing a coat which has Kennett's toll police scrawled across the back. The photo was distributed by the opposition after the State Government announced plans on Tuesday for a $5.5 billion Western Distributor Project including a western suburbs toll road. Responding to questions from Star News about the photo, Mr Donnellan did not specifically refer to the image, instead stating the Western Distributor Project would provide a 'network-wide solution'.

Hard work pays off NARRE WARREN

Kambrya College principal Michael Muscat with the school's high achievers Tanya Abraham and Luke Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Azzopardi. 148454 now hopes it will be enough to get into Melbourne University to study science. At Fountain Gate Secondary College, Sarah Clarke was awarded dux of the school, with an ATAR of 91.5, while the dux of Maranatha Christian School was Paul Michalski, who achieved an ATAR of 99.5. Meanwhile, the dux of Hampton Park Secondary College was 16-year-old Shrirajh Sarheakeerthy, who received an ATAR of 98.5. Shrirajh completed his maths VCE subjects in Year 11 and this
year completed his final three subjects - English, chemistry and physics. Hampton Park Secondary College principal David Finnerty said Shrirajh was the “classic example” of what can be achieved through the “care and commitment that public schools, just like Hampton Park Secondary College provide”. “The way in which we provide the support our students need ensures that they can go on to achieve outstanding results just like this,” he said.
Narre Warren South MP Judith Graley also praised the 16-year-old, who now wants to go on to study medicine. “This is an extraordinary achievement by Shrirajh, who is an outstanding young man and will no doubt go on to achieve incredible things,” she said. “Shrirajh’s amazing result is the culmination of years of hard work and wouldn’t have been possible without the support of his loving family and of course his teachers at Hampton Park Secondary College.”

THE sleepless nights for the City of Casey’s Year 12 students are finally over. Students throughout the municipality woke up on Monday morning to check their VCE results, which were finally released following months of studying and gruelling exams. The honour of dux for Kambrya College, in Berwick, was given to Tanya Abraham who recorded an ATAR of 94.55. “Looking at my scores for the first time was a nerve-wracking experience,” Tanya said. “There were so many emotions.” Meanwhile, the school’s VCAL dux was Luke Azzopardi. “At the start of the year, I had decided that I would accomplish a high standard and strive for the dux award for 2015,” Luke said. “With a lot of dedication and time, I have achieved this outcome.” Across the way, 17-year-old Atifa Asghari achieved the highest score for her school - Narre Warren South P-12 College - with an ATAR of 93.45. Atifa was too nervous to check the results herself and got her older sister to take a look first. “I didn’t look at it immediately, I got my older sister to check my results,” she said. “I remember last year when I did psychology my score was there, and it felt too quick to me. “The plan was get my sister to tell me what it was in case I went badly. “I just waited a little longer and eventually she spilled!” With her impressive score, Atifa

Casey Councillor Rosalie Crestani and Party for Freedom chairman Nick Folkes at the Cronulla riots anniversary barbecue on Saturday.
www.langlangshow.org
Folkes muted By LACHLAN MOORHEAD CASEY Councillor Rosalie Crestani said last Saturday’s “halal-free” barbecue for the anniversary of the Cronulla riots proved to police how “behaved” those who attended the event were. Cr Crestani was the MC for the barbecue after the planned rally – organised by Nicholas Folkes and his far-right Party for Freedom to coincide with the 10th anniversary of the violent clashes that erupted in southern Sydney on 11 December 2005 – was prohibited by a NSW Supreme Court judge. On Friday, Justice Christine Adamson agreed to prohibit the planned event, after the NSW

Police Commissioner launched a court action to block the rally from going ahead. The court heard that the planned rally risked sparking fresh violence, the Guardian Australia reported. But Cr Crestani said the amended event was still a success, despite Mr Folkes not being able to address the barbecue due to the court order. “It’s a great opportunity for the police and the media to see how behaved our group was and that we followed the court order,” she said. “I would have loved to see the judge ban a barbecue. “The police didn’t have to control us all.”
Counter-protesters were in the area but the heavy police presence kept the opposing groups separated for most of the day. More than 100 police officers on horseback had also taken to the streets. “We want to learn from the past 10 years ago,” Cr Crestani said. “We don’t want to tolerate any racism that was part of that (Cronulla riots). “There were elements we’re not proud of, but it just revealed the frustration that bubbled over 10 years ago and what can we learn from that? “How can we move forward?”

Defence lawyer Jonathan Miller said Amr was assessed as suitable for CREDIT bail, which would give him a chance to “fix himself up”. If released, the accused was offered a commercial rendering apprenticeship by a family friend, Mr Miller said. “He needs something better to do with his days, and that’s it.” Magistrate Jack Vandersteen said he had refused bail for Amr last year because the accused’s parents had “little control” and his live-in brother had also been in “extensive trouble”. “How can I (release Amr) when they both have extensive prior convictions and both are still living there?” Mr Miller argued that Amr couldn’t avoid his brother, who didn’t seem to be involved in the accused’s recent offending. “They’re a tight family unit who spend time together.” Mr Vandersteen noted that Amr faced at least nine months’ jail for the police pursuit alone. It was fortunate no-one was killed, he said. He rejected bail due to Amr’s unacceptable risk of reoffending and interfering with witnesses, as well as a failure to ‘show cause’. Amr was remanded to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 12 January.

A DOVETON man tore through red lights in a stolen Yaris as he was pursued by police for up to 45 minutes through Casey suburbs on a weekday evening, a court bail hearing was told on 14 December. Yusef Amr was on bail and a suspended driver at the time of the chase on 25 November, when he allegedly drove at high speed, on the wrong side of busy roads, and cut off vehicles already turning in turning lanes. Even after hitting policeplaced stop-sticks, Amr drove for 10 minutes on bare wheel rims with sparks trailing behind his car, the court heard. Earlier that afternoon, police spotted Amr in the Yaris bearing number plates recently stolen from another Yaris at Sandown Park railway station. He was allegedly travelling at a speed “well over 100 kilometres an hour” on Princes Highway, with smoke emitting from tyres. About 5pm, a witness on an Oleander Street nature strip, Doveton was narrowly missed by Amr, who was allegedly travelling fast, out of control and dropping smoky, screechy burnouts in the Yaris. Three associates then menaced the witness with a sawnoff shotgun, and Amr punched
the victim in the side of the face, the court was told. The man is still seeking medical tests on his swollen jaw. About 7.50pm, police vehicles and Air Wing followed Amr through Hallam, Hampton Park, Narre Warren and Doveton for about 45 minutes - although Amr contends it was for a shorter time. Detective Senior Constable Brad Coller, of Casey CIU, told the court that Amr sped off from police twice after they activated emergency lights and sirens. Amr had claimed to have bought the Yaris from people “known to police” in November, the court was told. The accused - who had an admitted dependence on ice, cannabis and pharmaceutical drugs - had evaded police by allegedly driving off in a dangerous manner in his father’s car in Springvale several weeks earlier. Amr had just completed two terms of imprisonment over offences including aggravated burglary, theft of a vehicle, unlicenced driving and dangerous driving while being pursued by police, the court heard. If bailed, Amr would resume living with his parents, who were supportive of him but had little control over his behaviour, Det Sen Const Coller said.

YOUTH Justice workers are set to hit Apex Gang’s juvenile armed robbers and car thieves with behaviour change programs, a children’s court has heard. Several Melbourne-based gang members have been recently arrested, with 13 offenders locked in juvenile detention, the court heard on 14 December. During the hearing, a 16-year-old “near the top” of the gang’s youth members was sentenced for a string of serious crimes involving taking a firearm to school, disqualified driving and car theft.

grams were being introduced by Youth Justice. The gangs had added a “complex layer” to the department’s work, the worker said. The department was introducing behaviour change programs, and seeking recommendations from senior practice advisors. It was also meeting with police to improve the sharing of information. The magistrate then asked the boy what he was going to do if his mates came around to suck him into trouble. “I’ll just stay with my family and my missus,” the boy replied. “Enough is enough,” the magistrate warned.
13 unlocked cars broken into THIRTEEN unlocked cars parked around Berwick Primary School were broken into overnight on Sunday 13 December. Detective Senior Sergeant Rodney Maroney, from the Narre Warren police station, said there was no sign of forced entry to all 13 cars. “This was a fair spate and unlocked car door burglaries drive a huge percentage of our crime, and it’s purely about locking cars,” Det Sen Sgt Maroney said.

month in juvenile remand – was sentenced to a “long” 12-month youth attendance order and disqualified from driving for 18 months. The boy was described as a “very serious offender” who was supported by a good family but didn’t seem to be responding to Youth Justice interventions. “It’s really frustrating, I know,” the magistrate told a Youth Justice worker. “If there’s going to be repercussions and this goes bottomup, we just don’t want anyone getting hurt.” “I hope he stays out of trouble, for everyone is concerned.” The magistrate asked the worker what “anti-gang” pro-
streets were targeted in the spate and a variety of items was stolen. “Cash, wallets, sunglasses, GPS and phone equipment was stolen,” Det Sen Sgt Maroney said.
“If everyone locked their cars, they’d have to smash windows and that causes sound, so then they might only attempt two or three cars instead of 13.” Det Sen Sgt Maroney said car burglaries tend to spike during school holidays. “Youths walk around at night bored trying doors,” he said, He urged everyone to lock their cars and hide valuables.

Stepping up to the task By LACHLAN MOORHEAD ARTICLES written about Jenny Davis refer to her as a Doveton matriarch. There may be no more apt a description for the 61-year-old grandmother who has resided in the suburb for 30 years. Jenny, an influential figurehead at the Doveton Eagles footy club, can’t speak highly enough of Doveton and its community. And in a year where Doveton has again copped its share of bad publicity, the suburb now, more than ever, needs a spokesperson to advocate and defend it. That person is Jenny. She made sure her voice was heard at the Doveton community forum, convened in September by Dandenong MP Gabrielle Williams, where the suburb’s future was the main topic of conversation. The meeting was held after Doveton was listed in July as one of the state’s seven most disadvantaged postcodes in the Dropping off the Edge 2015 report, compiled by Jesuit Social Services and Catholic Social Services Australia. Then a few weeks later Doveton was also found to be part of just 6 per cent of Victorian postcodes which make up half of the state’s 6506 prison population, according to the Ombudsman’s latest report. But those reports don’t quote people like Jenny, who speaks of the goodwill of the Doveton community until she’s blue in the face. When she moved to the area she was a single mum, raising her two now-adult children, Kelly and Paul, after being forced to move because she could no longer afford the rent at her Keysborough home. She said it’s the best decision she ever made. “I’ve never looked back, it’s a brilliant area - I love Doveton,” Jenny said.
Jenny Davis loves Doveton. 148289
Mark Mott and Paul Davis, Jenny's son, after the Doveton Eagles won the Southern Football League Division 3 grand final in Picture: RUSSELL BENNETT 2013. 106628 “If you’ve got a problem, they help you. They’re terrific people. “They’ll be the first ones on your doorstep.” At a time when the decline of Doveton’s manufacturing sector has been well documented,
good news stories about the suburb are hard to find. But there’s certainly one to be discovered at the Doveton Eagles Football Club where Jenny has been president for the past three years and which has experienced its fair share of hardship. The club came back from the brink to win the Southern Football League division 3 grand final in 2013, after it was banished from the league for a series of ugly on and off-field incidents. Then this year tragedy struck the club when talented 16-year-old player Axl Abson died suddenly from a burst appendix on 6 June. Axl’s dad had passed away from cancer just over 12 months earlier. “He was a good kid, a really nice kid,” Jenny said.
Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS “He loved his music, loved his dad.” Jenny is the godmother at the Eagles, where her son was an influential coach and premiership player, and she’s known for getting things done. Following Axl’s passing she successfully urged the league to enlist counsellors to help her Doveton players and beyond the footy club she’s been holding talks with Gabrielle Williams to see how she can help with other parts of the community, such as public housing availability. “I’m a hands-on person. I’m not a business person, I’m a people person,” she said. “I draw strength from people, and I get some wisdom off some people. “I listen, I listen to what they say and take it on board.”
VCE Success St Margaret’s School has a strong tradition of outstanding academic achievement. In 2015 this tradition lives on with our students again receiving exceptional VCE results. We are incredibly proud of the class of 2015, and we are delighted to announce that the Dux of our school this year is Elise Hutchinson who achieved an ATAR of 99.8.
Congratulations to the St Margaret’s School Class of 2015 • 8% of the students achieved an ATAR over 99, placing them in the top 1% of the nation. • 21% of the students have achieved an ATAR over 95 placing them in the top 5% of the nation. • 35% obtained an ATAR over 90 placing them in the top 10% of the nation • 42% of the year level attained ATAR scores over 85, placing them in the top 15% of the nation.

A NARRE Warren Soup kitchen will be a place of hope this holiday season. For the first time in its sixyear existence, the Narre Warren Transit soup kitchen is opening its doors on Christmas Day, and will serve lunch for those in the community who need it most. Casey Rotarian John McGreal, who is helping organise the Christmas lunch with Transit Pastor Keith Vethaak and other volunteers, said there was a huge demand on Christmas Day, that up to now they were unable to meet. Reliant on volunteers, John, Keith and the rest of the community at the Webb Street soup kitchen have urged the community to donate money, items or a helping hand in any way. “There are a lot of people out there who have nowhere to go for Christmas,” John said. With more than 100 people expected to turn out for a meal at the soup kitchen on 25 December, John praised the work of the Transit volunteers who volunteer “day in, day out” to feed the homeless. “At the end of this day, these people are doing it day in, day out and I just came to them with this idea to open on Christmas Day to complement what they already do,” John said.

Santa picnic BERWICK Lodge Primary School celebrated another year with a Christmas picnic. It was the school’s first festive picnic in several years and assistant principal Sandra McCrum said the evening was a “lovely family event”. “We had each year level sing Christmas carols and perform for their families, along with an art show and even a people’s choice awards,” Ms McCrum said. The schools community veggie garden was open and visitors were asked to vote on their favourite scarecrow. “Each class built a scarecrow so there was 21 to pick from and Grade 3M won on the night,” she said. More than 600 family and friends of the school attended the barbecue picnic on Friday 11 December and were entertained all night long. “Our Mandarin children sung a song in Chinese and we had zance (Zumba dancing) as well,” she said.

A 37-YEAR-OLD Endeavour Hills man, with alleged links to the Finks bikie club, has been charged with 12 offences including extortion after police raided about 20 properties across the state last week . Set to face the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court, the man was remanded in custody after a warrant was executed at a Kassan Gardens house about 6am on Tuesday 15 December, at the same time police raided the Finks clubhouse in Ringwood
and more homes throughout the state. He was charged with conspiracy to extort, conspiracy to commit an aggravated burglary, prohibited person in possession of firearms, and a number of bail offences. Seventeen men and one woman were arrested in the bikie raids - in suburbs including Carnegie, Edithvale, Croydon North and Healesville - and are currently assisting police with their inquiries. The 20 warrants were executed by the Echo Taskforce,
the Federal Police and Australian Border Force. Operation Irrevocable was set up to focus on the criminal activities of the Finks, believed to be involved in aggravated burglaries, attempted kidnap, firearm offences and drug trafficking. The Queensland chapter of the Finks has already been targeted by police in recent weeks, with six members facing a total of 31 charges including the possession of dangerous drugs and counterfeit currency. The investigation is ongoing.

after her family and couldn’t speak a word of English before starting the course. “This has got her out of her comfort zone and she is much more confident,” Ms Nivandhana said.

SOME of Doveton College’s most recent graduates are on their way to a very happy new year after completing a course in English language. “They can now feel confident answering the phone, making an appointment, asking for a price at the shops and communicating with their child’s school – this course is a very good thing.” Brace Education and Training teacher Nivas Nivandhana taught the nine-month English course at Doveton College this year and was delighted to see her students graduate with new life skills. “It gives them confidence to live in Australia, the course is life changing for the women,” Ms Nivandhana said. Seven women will graduate with a certificate I and II in English language on Thursday 17 December in front of their Doveton College peers, which for many will be their own children. “They were taught how to write, read and speak as well computer skills and numeracy,” Ms Nivandhana said. “It’s great for the entire community and for their children as well who got dropped off by their mum at the classroom door.”

Foes at first IT WAS a defining moment when a Narre Warren artist gave her WWI painting to the Turkish Consulate as a token of goodwill. Gabriele Jenkins, a member of the Casey-based Provenance Artists, has given her painting to Turkish Consul-General Me-
hmet Kucuksakalli, which depicts an Australian soldier actually helping the Turkish soldier he is fighting against. The painting was based on a real photograph, which shows an Australian soldier giving a drink to his Turkish counterpart. Provenance Artists presi-
dent Calvin Bell said the Turkish Consul-General was overwhelmed by the gesture. “It is through amazing feats such as this that the incredible relationship between Australia and Turkey has flourished and endured to be even stronger today,” he said.

CASEY Council’s proposal for a public safety committee is getting closer to reality, with the group likely to be launched in February next year. The recommendation for the Public Safety Advisory Committee to be started up in early 2016 is included in this week’s agenda, and just needs to be carried by council on Tuesday night. The idea was raised by Cr Louise Berkelmans last month on the back of the Casey ward crime forums, in which residents from every ward were invited to meetings with councillors, police officers and spe-
Aquariums & Reptiles
cialists. “We need to have professional people on the committee who are involved with prevention, early prevention, people who are caring for victims of crime,” Cr Berkelmans told Star News. “These kinds of people can be a steering committee to guide the council in what things can be put in place to curb crime in Casey.” In December 2012, a similar program, the Safer Casey Partnership, was placed in suspension, pending the development and adoption of the Community Safety Strategy. Ms Berkelmans said a re-
newed team approach would allow for a “bigger voice”. “We can make more of a stand; when we come together with other people we have a bigger voice,” she said. “This is not just a council problem, it’s not just a police problem and it’s not just a community services problem - this is everybody.” The year’s series of ward forums included several keynote speakers, including Casey Police Inspector Paul Breen, and Youth Support Advocacy Service (YSAS) director Peter Wearne.

Wood weighs in on the Monash By LACHLAN MOORHEAD FEDERAL MP Jason Wood has questioned the effectiveness of the State Government’s $400 million plan to widen the Monash Freeway, labelling the proposal a “pig with lipstick”. The La Trobe MP said the government’s plan to widen the freeway to five lanes running each way between EastLink and the South Gippsland Highway, and three lanes each way further out to Clyde Road, would not be sufficient. “Local residents through my survey and conversations understand that two extra lanes are required in this section of the Monash, and I will continue to fight and lobby on their behalf to secure even more additional funding as part of this upgrade,” he said. “In addition as part of the Monash upgrade, any upgrade must include the O’Shea Road
extension with on/off ramps at the full diamond exchange in Beaconsfield as this will remove the need for Beaconsfield residents to enter and exit the Monash at Clyde Road.” The government is looking to partner with the Federal Government to fund the upgrade, with some media outlets reporting they were looking for the Commonwealth to chip in as much as half the estimated cost. In October it was reported how the Turnbull Government was believed to have agreed to unlock the $1.5 billion East West Link money allocated to Victoria, provided it would be used on projects like the Monash Freeway. But Roads Minister Luke Donnellan wouldn’t specify how much would be sought from his Federal counterparts, only to say the government will seek its “fair share”. Speaking to Star News after
a meeting with Federal colleagues on Thursday, Mr Wood said residents in the south-east were also being short-changed after the State Government announced plans for a $5.5 billion Western Distributor Project this week, including a western suburbs toll road. But Mr Donnellan said the Monash Freeway upgrade was included in the Western Distributor Project, which would provide a “network-wide solution”. He said upgrades to technology between Warrigal Road and Kooweerup Road would provide better flow and help reduce stop-start conditions, and that widening the freeway from East Link to Clyde Road would boost capacity and reduce travel times. “The Victorian Government is seeking our fair share of Federal Government funding to deliver this vital upgrade for Melbourne motorists,” he said.
Help to spread the season’s real cheer MAYOR Sam Aziz has sent his season greetings to the Casey community. In a special Christmas message to residents, Cr Aziz said it was important not to forget the “true essence” of Christmas. “Unfortunately for some, Christmas isn’t always the happiest of time. Many community members are doing it tough,
Thursday, 17 December, 2015 Page 19
berwicknews.starcommunity.com.au
some are struggling to provide for their families, are without loved ones or battling health problems,” Cr Aziz said. “I urge everyone to reach out in love and friendship, whether it be by spreading the Christmas cheer with someone that is lonely, donating items to Christmas appeals or volunteering some time to a local charity supporting those in need.”
He said Casey was lucky to have so many wonderful community groups, organisations, businesses and individuals who “continually contribute to creating our caring, empathetic and harmonious community”. “Council thanks you for the work you do all year around, which is particularly paramount during Christmas,” Cr Aziz said.

Littlies make good with Lego
By LACHLAN MOORHEAD ALBERT Bray was given just six weeks to live. But almost five years and several bouts of chemo later, Bert is still fighting leukaemia. It was in January 2011 when the doctor called Albert’s wife, Deb, at her Narre Warren home to tell her the news that changed the Brays’ world forever. Her husband had been diagnosed with a rare cancer known as hairy-cell leukaemia, only contracted by men and which affects the blood and bone marrow. Bert, now 52, had been out for morning tea with his two daughters, Stacie and Jessica, at the time the doctor called Deb at home.

The gigantic garage sale will include a sausage sizzle, a raffle and tin donations. The Brays are also passionate supporters of the World’s Greatest Shave and make an effort to get involved with the initiative every year. “We want to make a difference together for the Leukaemia Foundation,” Deb said. The gigantic garage sale will be held on 20 February in Narre Warren, and to donate contact Deb on 0423 761 162. For more information on the Leukaemia Foundation, visit www.leukaemia.org.au.

“You could have heard a pin drop. The doctor rang me first and wanted to speak to Albert but he was out with the girls and wouldn’t be back for an hour or two,” she said. “So the doctor told me first, and I was by myself for a couple of hours which was devastating. “He told me Bert had six weeks to live if he didn’t start chemo immediately.” Despite the toll the last few years have had on the Brays, Deb said her husband was a fighter. “ ... He’s not going to give up,” she said. “He’s doing okay at the moment.” Bert’s resilience is contagious and has caught on with

FROM PAGE 1. AS immaculate as the day it was built, this impressive family entertainer has luxurious space, contemporary styling throughout and an open floorplan. Built by the original owners only eight years ago and positioned in the highly sought-after Chase estate, this home on 646 square metres has all the practical additions you’d expect. A stylish portico entrance leads to a huge parents’ retreat with his-and-hers WIR and luxurious ensuite with double shower and vanities, study, elegant formal lounge with raked ceilings, with three additional robed bedrooms conveniently zoned and serviced by a full family bathroom. At the heart of the home lies an open plan gourmet kitchen with Caesarstone bench tops, European stainless-steel appliances, large corner pantry and island with breakfast bar, flowing to the meals area and family room. The third living space is currently configured as a purpose-built cinema room with projector (included by negotiation) and block-out blinds, but could equally serve as a rumpus. An exquisitely landscaped and lowmaintenance garden is overlooked by the undercover alfresco zone with built-in barbecue area, the perfect setting to wine and dine friends and family on balmy summer evenings. High ceilings, plantation shutters, porcelain floor tiles, ducted heating and evaporative cooling make for year-round comfort. The property is close to local parks, shops, Berwick Chase Primary School and St Francis Xavier College.

SPREADING THE CHRISTMAS CHEER
MOSAIC WINS AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IT was a big week for Burbank with Mosaic apartments taking out the top prize in the Urban Renewal category at the Urban Development Institute of Australia (UDIA) awards recently. Held at Crown Palladium in Melbourne, the UDIA awards recognise excellence in building and innovation in the creation of sustainable residential communities in Victoria. Perfectly positioned in Dandenong’s award-winning Metro Village 3175, Mosaic apartments certainly have innovation covered. Designed by Burbank, in conjunction with acclaimed architects Peddle Thorp, Mosaic is comprised of 235 one and two-bedroom apartments built around a central landscaped courtyard as well as three retail and three office spaces which are easily accessible on the ground floor.
These modern apartments come complete with a range of premium features including quality tiles and carpets, reconstituted stone benchtops, stainless steel European style appliances and split system air conditioning. Residents are spoilt for choice with the Dandenong Market, retail precinct and iconic Drum Theatre all just a stone’s throw away while easy access to the freeway and public transport network is the icing on the cake at this masterplanned, modern complex. Burbank Homes managing director Jarrod Sanfilippo accepted the award on behalf of the Burbank team, who were thrilled to take out the top prize. “Mosaic is a state-of-the-art development that’s very different to anything ever seen before in the Dandenong area.
“We’ve had an overwhelmingly positive response from the residents, investors and the local community, and it’s great to now be recognised by the UDIA and our industry peers,” Jarrod said. “Mosaic has proven particularly popular with investors, as well as first home buyers, students and families looking to downsize,” he added. “The communal courtyards and shared recreation spaces are a real point of difference and the quality of the finishes add a premium touch to the apartments.” Mosaic apartments have sold quickly since being released to the market, however there are still a few of these award-winning apartments available for sale and ready for occupancy. For more information, visit www. mosaicapartments.com.au.
TIMBERTOP estate residents recently donated gifts for underprivileged children as part of the ’Share your Christmas’ initiative. Organised by the Timbertop Residents Group, the appeal received a generous response from locals, with piles of presents accumulating under the tree, which have now been donated to The 4Cs Crisis Relief Centre and Windermere Child and Family Services. Gifts of all shapes and sizes were generously provided by residents, including an Xbox game console. The 4Cs Crisis Relief Centre and Windermere Child and Family Services are both Pakenham-based organisations working locally to improve the physical, financial and emotional wellbeing of disadvantaged children and families. For over 150 years Windermere has been helping people live life to their full potential. They provide counselling, housing support, disability services, childcare and more. The 4Cs assists over 200 families per day, providing services such as emergency finance, food relief, accommodation, clothing, counselling and education. Both organisations were grateful for Timbertop’s contribution. Maree De George of Windermere thanked the residents for “a wonderful contribution, which will bring some Christmas joy to children and families in our community that would otherwise miss out“. This is the first year of the ’Share your Christmas’ initiative - the beginning of an ongoing partnership between Timbertop, Windermere and The 4Cs. As Timbertop estate continues to grow, so too will the initiative, which is sure to impact the community for years to come. ’Share your Christmas’ is one of many programs run by Parklea, developers of the Timbertop estate, aiming to make a difference in the community and promote friendships, fun and safety.

I am writing to give Cynthia Chow my highest recommendation. Cynthia possesses all the attributes necessary to be an excellent real estate consultant. She knows her market extremely well; she is diligent, responsive, and yet very patient with her clients. Cynthia is both very professional and personable. She clearly takes pride in doing a good job. I never dreamed that Cynthia would have obtained the sale price that was achieved … I would recommend Cynthia Chow to anyone without any hesitation. Cyril K. Clayton South

A LOCAL diabetes campaign has exceeded all expectations. The T1D Cards for a Cure campaign, which saw donation cards made available at Coles in Eden Rise Shopping Centre during October, was extended for all of November and is likely to be set up in more Casey stores next year. All proceeds will go towards the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation (JDRF). Berwick mother and passionate type one diabetes (T1D) campaigner Deb Bayley said she was amazed by the response the new campaign received. All up the initiative raised $1561.65. “I am just so thankful that in June this year Coles accepted my proposal and agreed to hav-

Cure project. Deb said Coles had indicated that it wanted to roll out the campaign in additional Casey stores next year. “I’ve been to see some of the store managers and tell them what I do and why I do it,” she said. And Deb hopes next year’s campaign will bring the same joy and hope that this year’s did. “While I was placing more T1D Cards at registers for our campaign, a young girl was putting her card on the wall,” she said. “I thanked her and her mother for making a donation and for supporting our cause. “The lady reached out a hugged me and said ‘thank you for educating us’. You are a very brave mum’.”

Her 14-year-old son Ryan was diagnosed with the disease when he was a toddler and he was keen to help his mum prepare for the T1D Cards for a
INKSPOT Fountain Gate has a new location but still offers the same old-fashioned service. “We have recently relocated,” National Marketing Manager Benjamin Spirason said. “We were operating out of a small kiosk in Westfield Fountain Gate but a few months back we moved across the road to an external shop front. “The move happened fairly quickly so there wasn’t a lot of time to inform our existing customers. “Many have found their way over to our new shop but there are still a few who are unaware of our new location.” Inkspot has been operating for eight years, five in this area, and has 30 stores around Australia. “We are the trusted name when it comes to high quality, reliable ink and toner,” he said. The shop offers an ink refilling service for the majority of ink cartridges and free expert printer advice. “We specialise in ink and toner. “Unlike other office supply stores we are dedicated to providing excellent service, expertise and value for money in this area.
The new Inkspot at Fountain Gate. “Up until Christmas when you buy two identical Inkspot brand cartridges you’ll get the second one half price. “This applies to all our Inkspot range whether it’s ink, toner, single cartridges or full sets.” Benjamin said the store stocks a full range of the brand products from HP to Samsung, Dell and Xerox but also has Inkspot compatibles. “Compatible cartridges, also often called generic or aftermarket cartridges, are designed to replace your original printer cartridges. “They provide the same quality and quantity of ink while saving customers money and are all backed by a 100 per
cent customer satisfaction guarantee.” Inkspot also stocks a range of affordable gift ideas including photo grams and kids’ toys which are perfect for Christmas. The focus of the business is to provide the local community with quality printer consumables and excellent expert service while saving money.

Stars in a green field day By JARROD POTTER USUALLY stars shine bright white, but on Sunday all stellar cricket fans were sparklingly green as part of the Melbourne Stars Casey Family Fun Day. Held annually at Casey Fields, the Family Fun Day brings a cohort of Melbourne Stars fans to watch the last preseason hit out before cricket’s Twenty20 Big Bash tournament. The Melbourne Stars hugehitting started in the morning with newly formed Star’s Women’s Big Bash team playing a Southern Pioneers representative side before the men arrived to face the Victorian Premier Cricket All-Stars in the main event. While there were plenty of fun and games on the second oval - with face painters and carnival rides - the real joy was for the crowd was watching the Stars dominate proceedings. Luke Wright struck an unbeaten century off only 48 balls to excite the crowd - with none of the boundaries proving a match for the Englishman’s lusty hitting- as the Stars defeated the All-Stars by 105 runs. News photographer JARROD POTTER was there in the sea of green to capture the excitement of the Stars army.

HE’S known as the ‘Lights Police’ of Lupin Court - and he’s got one hell of an army! Graham Conder has lived in his home in Cranbourne North for 21 years and for the past 20 years he’s been lighting it up with the help of his friendly neighbours. “As soon as someone moves into the court they get a knock on the door from me and I tell them ... I demand that they do Christmas lights,” Graham said, laughing. It’s a festive Lupin Court tradition that has become known far and wide and it’s not stopping any time soon. “We start planning in November and on 1 December we turn them on,” he said. “A few Father’s Days ago my sons bought me a new shed to put my lights in because I was running out of room.” “My biggest plan is to make sure my neighbours get bigger and better and encouraging them to keep splurging on lights and decorations.” But its Graham’s love for his “tight knit” court that keeps him coming back for more each Christmas. “We get a great response from everyone, some people visit twice a week in the lead up to Christmas and we’re always out and about too, happy to have a chat with passers-by,” he said. “Every year on Christmas Eve the court gets together on my lawn and we have fish and chips or a barbecue, we are all friends it’s a great atmosphere.” This year Graham convinced 13 out of the 14 households in Lupin Court to join in on the fun and he couldn’t be happier. “We share the lights between us and sit out and enjoy the show ourselves and talk to the visitors of a night,” he said. “One year my neighbour who had just moved in said he’d love to participate but couldn’t afford it, so I lent him some of mine and we all share extension leads and help each other out.” With many Lupin Court residents coming and going over the years Graham said he was proud to have conned most of them into the Christmas spirit. “I couldn’t count how many families have moved in an out

Lupin Court residents gather around an open fire and take in their lights display. 148411 that I have had to convince,” Graham said. “But once they move in they love it, some have even said they wish they’d moved in earlier.” Letters of praise from onlookers are another reason the jolly bunch keep the tradition alive. “A couple of my neighbours have received letters from children and adults too thanking them for the lights and the effort, people give us beer and presents too,” Graham said. The Christmas destination will be pulled down on New Year’s Eve before midnight but Graham is hoping to mow his
front lawn before then. “With all the cables, lights and decorations it’s hard to do any weeding or mowing,” he said. But it’s the smiles on Graham’s youngest visitors that really lights up the court. Graham’s prize possession is his talking reindeer. “I hide behind the car and through a microphone I can have a conversation with visitors as the reindeer. “I ask the children what they want for Christmas,” Graham said. “It’s absolutely an addiction - you can’t help yourself.”

Following in Pa’s steps By JARROD POTTER WHEN Georgia Gee pulls on the Dandenong Stingrays jumper next season, she will proudly carry a Dandenong football legacy into the fourth-generation. Gee, 16, was selected for the 2016 Dandenong Stingrays Youth Girls Academy - and in many ways the TAC Cup club is a spiritual successor to her grandfather’s Dandenong Football Club at Shepley Oval. While it might not be in a Redlegs side, Gee - a Beaconsfield Youth Girls triple premiership player - was thrilled to get a chance to play where her Pa Brian Shinners made his name in the former Victorian Football Association. “To be able to follow in my Pa’s footsteps playing for Dandy is a massive privilege,” Gee said. “To play with all these other great girls and take my skills to a higher level is a massive honour. “It’s been a good experience so far and it will be a great experience over the six months that we play.” Shinners is thrilled to see his granddaughter extend the family’s Shepley Oval history across to women’s football - a sight he never could have predicted in his time associated with footy. “At that early stage you’d only ever think about your son carrying on the tradition of football - certainly Aussie rules anyway - but the progress of the
women’s side of football and the way it’s been pushed realistically by the AFL now has been great,” Shinners said. “Initially I never thought it would eventuate - even at that early stage for Auskick and things like that young girls were very sparingly even involved - so it’s been a really pleasant surprise.” The Shinners name is synonymous with Dandenong football as Brian a former Richmond and Hawthorn VFL footballer - joined the Redlegs in 1970s alongside his brothers Kevin and Bobby. The three Shinners brothers followed what was started by their father Jack - who played for the club back in the 1930s under the Dandenong United banner. Shinners saw his granddaughter’s skills develop from very early on and he thinks she’ll be a force in any “She goes very well - always had very good hand/eye coordination,” Shinners said. “Georgia has always been, even as a little tacker, about having a kick in the backyard and learned to kick properly. “She’s very quick and has very good co-ordination.” While the Redlegs memories are effectively all that remain of the proud club - besides one display cabinet at Shepley Oval - Shinners is proud of ev-
erything that happened in the red and blue, especially the friendships formed throughout the years. “I feel disappointed that there isn’t more memorabilia about the history of where Dandenong came to,” Shinners said. “It was always very competitive and they always had a lot of great players and people related to the club as well as the local community. “I always enjoyed the footy - it gave everyone a little bit of everything in the VFA, you had guys who didn’t actually make the VFL but were good footballers in their own right. “As well as the friendships and the relationships - Pat Flaherty is still a really good mate, Terry Reid, Derrick Harrington, the fact that my brother and I and my younger brother Bobby came here and played at Dandenong, too.” As far as the monumental growth of women’s sport has come in Shinners’s lifetime, it’s grown dramatically just in the time Gee has been playing as Women’s AFL is now a certainty rather than just a concept. “It’s been pretty crazy watching the process of all the girls’ footy teams growing from when I was younger - it was just all boys playing and I never thought it would be like this,” Gee said. “I never thought there would be a girls’ competition and it’s been pretty amazing.”

Hard work pays off for Gabrielle By JARROD POTTER
Happy ever after for cups THREE premiership cups were safely tucked away but the South East Football Netball League senior grand final would decide whether this would be the greatest day in the history of the Berwick Football Club. It’s now a huge part of local sporting folklore that coach Rhys Nisbet would lead his side to a five-goal victory over Cranbourne, adding the ultimate piece of silverware to earlier victories in the Under 18s, 19s and Reserves, to cap off the best sporting story of the year. “There was a lot of pressure building up on us, but it was a good type of pressure and that’s the best quaddie I’ve ever got in my life,” Nisbet said after the all-conquering victory. In this last edition of the News for 2015 we congratulate our sporting heroes for their accomplishments, and wish all our readers a very safe and happy festive season before we reunite on Thursday 14 January. And we ask the question – What does sport in 2016 hold? 144586 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS
SECOND time was the charm for up-and-coming netball star Gabrielle Dwyer, who has earned a chance to represent Victoria at next year’s national championships. Dwyer, 16, from Berwick, has been working her way up the ranks in local netball, but had to work her way back into the Netball Victoria Under 17 side after just missing out last year. She was cut at the 25-person squad stage in 2014, but she persevered and gave it another crack this year. Her inclusion in Two Bays regional team as well as a talent identification program gave her an inkling she could go one step better this year. “I got picked in the Netball Victoria Talent Squad - identified as having the potential to play for Victoria - and that was something where I was like ‘maybe I had a chance’, ‘maybe I could do this’,” Dwyer said. “I made the squad last year but then I made the team this time ... it was great to get into the team, especially being top-age as I wouldn’t have felt I’d have much of a chance at it next year if I was going bottom age again.” She features in the Peninsula Waves Under 19 side with the Victorian Netball League (VNL) and she credits the bigger bodies in the competition for helping her make the Netball Victoria Under 17 side this time around. “Just having another year of VNL under my belt,” Dwyer said. “That was good as it helped me play against bigger girls and get stronger as well which really helped.” She’s been an integral part of Narre Warren’s incredible run of junior premierships as the deadeye goaler picked up three-flags in a row at Under 15 and Under 17 level. She hasn’t always been the prime goal-shooter though; she made that all-too-common switch

Add to it her school netball with Beaconhills College and it makes a hectic schedule for the young goaler, but she wouldn’t dream of cutting any of it back. “I’m definitely busier now than I used to be, but netball’s always been a pretty big part of my life,” Dwyer said. “I hope just to make new friends and enjoy the experience of playing of Victoria as that’s always been my goal - hopefully play a good tournament and we’ll see how we can go.” She wanted to thank her parents and her netball clubs for their support of her sporting journey.

Priceless exposure for Lambden By JARROD POTTER “YOU’RE in.” Nathan Lambden returned to the sheds on Saturday with an interesting text message waiting for him. The Casey-South Melbourne spearhead had received his call up to the Victorian Premier Cricket All Stars side, which took on the Melbourne Stars in an exhibition Twenty20 match on Sunday at Casey Fields. Lambden, 22, from Cranbourne, was on standby most of the week - after injuries decimated a few original squad members - but getting that news on Saturday presented a huge opportunity for Lambden to charge in against the Stars. “Got called Thursday at work, and I was pretty happy with that - was on standby at that stage and wasn’t really confirmed that I’d be playing,” Lambden said. “I was batting on Saturday and came off at the tea break and got a message saying, I was in and had to be in there early on Sunday.” It wasn’t easy going for Lambden, who finished up with 2/58 from his four overs as the Stars ramped up the run-rate. While the All Stars were given a bit of a batting lesson by the Stars - who amassed 3/283 - Lambden thought the experience was priceless as it showed him what it takes to stop the best. “It was very challenging, but was an awesome experience,” Lambden said. “Bowling to blokes who’ve played international cricket and state cricket and seeing the massive difference between premier cricket and the Stars - it was a massive, massive step up.” “They really cash in on the bad balls - literally have to hit the spot every ball ... if you’re a fraction full or wide they make you pay.” While he isn’t a bunny with the blade, Lambden was the last man sent to the crease in a power-packed Premier All Stars batting attack, but didn’t let his demotion down the order worry him. “I don’t mind it - got the opportunity to go out there and there was no pressure batting at 11 and only had three or four

Earning a late call up to the Premier All Stars team, Nathan Lambden seized his opportunity gladly to bowl against the Melbourne Stars. 148435 Pictures: JARROD POTTER overs, so I had some fun with Ejaaz (Alavi) and was lucky enough to get onto a couple.” By get onto a couple Lambden actually smashed the Big Bash bowlers about in his 27 off 15 balls including a few swatted sixes to help the All Stars finish on 9/177. Lambden’s switch to CaseySouth Melbourne this season is starting to reap rewards as he’s taken 23 wickets at 18, including 7-65 against Monash. While the Swans’ 2-8 record looks bad on paper, Lambden thinks the side has been in the hunt more often than not, and just needs to finish the job they have often started. “Loving it- absolutely loving it - fresh new start and got wonderful coaches and the whole
club have welcomed me in and I’m fitting in well,” Lambden said. “The worst thing about the start is probably three or four of the first six games we were in the game for about 80 per cent of the time. “We’d lose wickets in a bunch or a partnership would get away ... only a couple of games were we really flogged, like the Monash game. “But you learn those things, and the club is so young and the two wins - you can see the belief and confidence and training has gone up another step and Saturday is another big opportunity.” The Premier All-Stars play the Melbourne Renegades at the Junction Oval from 4pm on Tuesday.
Cougars are back in the hunt By RUSSELL BENNETT THE Berwick City Cougars’ form in Baseball Victoria Summer League’s second division has steadied - backing up a recent drought-breaking win with another impressive showing on Sunday. Buoyed by a 10-1 smashing of Malvern at Cyril Molyneux Reserve in Round 15, the Cougars triumphed 8-7 away to Bonbeach. The result was the Berwick side’s second consecutive win after six defeats on the trot. “It’s all about scoring early and putting pressure on right from the start,” said first team manager Dan Betreen in the build-up to the Bonbeach game, admitting that his side reached a low point with its 6-0 loss to Port Melbourne in Round 11. But since then the Cougars have refused to let frustration get the better of them during games, or let pressure snowball into negativity even though results weren’t going their way. The Cougars are fifth on the Division 2 ladder, level with Williamstown on 16 points. Berwick City will host Ballarat from 3.30 this Saturday afternoon at Cyril Molyneux Reserve -
their last game before the Christmas break. In the Division 2 reserves, meanwhile, Berwick City hammered Bonbeach 11-0 and also sits in fifth on the ladder. The thirds had an absolute run-feast in their game against Bonbeach, winning 19-6.

THERE are so many different ways to approach cricket, but only with an attitude like John Cuthbertson's can you produce something truly unique like he did on Saturday. The Merinda Park all-rounder’s “live by the sword, die by the sword” mentality reaped the ultimate reward, a club-record 228 against Officer in the F Grade clash at Donnelly Reserve No 2. And while the actual size of the number is astounding, it’s the finer details that will make this an innings that will live in club folklore forever. The self-confessed happy-hooker batted for just 123 minutes and faced 116 balls, striking 33 fours and 10 towering sixes. He was first man out, dismissed before tea on day two, after sharing a 299-run opening partnership with Paul Humphrey that began late on day one. “I love anything short; I’m a compulsive hooker, but the bat’s bigger than the ball so I back myself in,” the 43-year-old said after making his 14th century at the club. “They (Officer) didn’t bowl that badly but it just seemed to be my day. Once the runs started flowing I backed myself in even more and even the miscued shots were going to the boundary. It was just my day, an unbelievable day to be a part of.” Cuthbertson has had quite the career with Merinda Park since moving there from North Heidelberg around the turn of the century. He has made more than 6000 runs, taken in excess of 400 wickets, has taken a hat-trick and has twice bagged hauls of seven wickets. He has made more runs and taken more wickets than anyone in the 30-odd year history of the club. But Saturday’s knock, well it was special and is still sinking in. “To make the double hundred and break the club record, when you sit back and start to think about it, it makes you feel pretty special about yourself I suppose,” he said. “Someone will break it eventually but I’ve got it now and I’m going to enjoy that time while I’ve got it. It might happen this year, it might happen next year, or it might happen in 10-years’ time.” Cuthbertson said there were some key memories from his big day out that he will treasure forever. “Seriously, hats off to Officer, Timmy (captain
Merinda Park’s John Cuthbertson cuts for four during his record-breaking innings of 228 against Officer on Saturday. 148352 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Tim Smith) and the boys, they were fantastic out there and a real credit to their club,” he said. “They knew if they bowled short I was going to try and whack it over the fence, but they’re a really good bunch of blokes and even though they were getting smashed they kept their spirits high.” And from his own team? “There’s a bloke like Mark Dipilla, he’s been out in the middle for eight of my centuries, and he was umpiring, so to have him out there was really special,” he said. “Every time I’ve had a brain fade over the years he’s always been there to calm me down and he did it again on Saturday.” And then there’s John’s son, Dylan, an assistant-coach at the club and the most talented legspin/batting all-rounder in the WGCA Premier Division. “It’s funny, he took me out for dinner on Saturday night and I kept telling him how good I was and he kept laughing at me so we’ve already had a bit of fun with it,” John said. “But seriously, I’m Dylan’s biggest fan and any record that I hold at the club I hope it’s him that goes on to break it. I reckon he just needs to back himself a bit more that’s all.” And have an attitude like his old-man did on the weekend!

Jimmy sends the scholars By JARROD POTTER VICTORIAN PREMIER CRICKET ROUND 12 (Day 1) A SCINTILLATING foundation was set for Casey-South Melbourne (290) by centurion James Seymour against Melbourne Uni (2/74). Seymour (123) smashed his first Swans’ ton at better than a run a ball and in tandem with Devin Pollock (59) added 149 for the second scalp. It was even more remarkable as Seymour didn’t have any sight-screens after they were vandalised on Friday. It didn’t stop the Swans opener teeing off in a swashbuckling innings more fitting of the Big Bash pre-season match the following day though. Seymour hit the scholars to all parts including one monster six that cleared the light-tower and landed on the old train tracks. He raced through the 70s and 80s with more of the same before Seymour saluted the crowd in style - as he bludgeoned Ajay Chawla into the stand to bring up the milestone after only 40 overs. As he tried to continue the rampage, Seymour got too ambitious as he reverse-swept Daniel Hutton (3/60) into the waiting hands of Tom Batters and from there the Swans innings started to shake. Pollock fell soon after Seymour and triggered a collapse as the middle order couldn’t cash in on another strong partnership. Captain Lachie Sperling (23) hit the rank ball and sped into the 20s, but succumbed quickly as did Keirran Voelkl (1) and vice-captain Michael Wallace (0). Dylan Hadfield (29) dug in before the tailenders Brendan Rose (17), Leigh Diston (17), Nathan Lambden (7) and Jackson Fry (4no) helped eke out 64 for the final four wickets. “It’s good to have a score on the board to defend, so it’s up to the bowlers now to get the wickets,” Sperling said. “Top three - particularly Pollock and Seymour - were sensational. “Jimmy was just in the zone and he just kept going, and I suppose he’d be a

excelled in his first innings at number three. “Mainly the way we went about it - particularly Dev - won’t get the accolades but his knock was just as important and steadied the ship there and batted with Jimmy,” Sperling said. “That’s his first go at number three - really pleased with his efforts.” The Swans chipped out two early scalps before Ben Fletcher (39no) and James McNeil (25no) dug in to keep the rot from spreading. First hour will be crucial - they’ve got Fletcher at the crease and he’s made a lot of runs over the time and he’ll be the key wicket, but we’ve just got to keep being patient with the ball.
The shed had plenty of cheering to do between Seymour and Devin Pollock. 148422
Spolly seizes the Northern approaches Demons aim at By JARROD POTTER DDCA TURF 1 - ROUND 6 (Day 1) SMART declarations proved beneficial as Dandenong-area sides were taught a thing or two about the gentleman’s game. NORTH DANDENONG v CRANBOURNE OUTPLAYED at every turn, North Dandenong (5/53) is staring down the barrel after Cranbourne (5/281dec) ran all over the hosts. After a solid start from the Northerners, the experienced Eagles’ middle order swooped on all red-leathery objects at Lois Twohig Reserve. Going at five an over, North Dandenong was left at the mercy of Steve Spoljaric (95) and Matt Chasemore (82) - who added 161 to steal the advantage back for Cranbourne. Spoljaric was caught on the very edge of the fence as he looked to pull into the houses for his century, but that only brought Lucas Ligt (67no) to the crease. Ligt punished just as many rank Northern deliveries, but eventually Spoljaric called his side back for a go with the ball. Whatever Spoljaric saw in the wicket paid off as he sniped four wickets before stumps, despite the best efforts of opposing skipper Nasrat Malikzada (21). BERWICK V BUCKLEY RIDGES AFTER missing out last week
Cranbourne's Brayden Roscoe goes for a slip and slide against Picture: JARROD POTTER North Dandenong. 148423 against Hallam Kalora Park, it was Brad James’ (58) time to shine in a gutsy rescue effort for Berwick (9/144dec) against Buckley Ridges (3/26). James watched the top order collapse around him as Lucas Hoogenboom (4/19) continued his good form with the ball. At 4/19, the side was in disarray until Ryan Crawford
(42) enlisted for the cause alongside James. The tandem added a clean 100 before James succumbed to Hoogenboom and when Crawford departed soon after, the Bears’ tally stalled again. Some captaincy wizardry from Jarrod Goodes brought the Bears back in for a short-ditched barrage, which managed to undo three Ridg-
es’ top order bats including the skipper Dan Watson (0) trapped LBW. Jayson Hobbs (10no) survived and will go hunting for Buckley Ridges to get the remaining 119 for victory. HEINZ SOUTHERN DISTRICTS v LYNDALE HEINZ Southern Districts (7/258dec) has Lyndale (6/70) over a barrel. It’s not just first innings points that are at danger for the Dales but the outright seems far too close after the Cobras unleashed with bat and ball alike. With a bit from everyone, especially the former skipper Trevor Davies (82) and Matt Downe (45no), the hosts were not gracious with the way they dispatched anything Lyndale threw at them. Ciaron Connolly (4/75) continued to burden the lion’s share of responsibility as eventually the pain was cut short by declaration. It just changed the format of the pain though as Lyndale fell to 6/70 by stumps as Hari Krishan (4/16) inflicted another scintilla of soreness. 188 is the margin on the first innings and realistically, 14 wickets is the magic number Heinz will aim for next week. NARRE WARREN v HALLAM KALORA PARK THE rain on Friday made Sweeney Reserve unplayable on Saturday, forcing the match to be rescheduled as a one-dayer this week.
third T20 title By RUSSELL BENNETT
A KOOWEERUP and Upper Beaconsfield rematch could still be on the cards for the WGCA’s Kookaburra Twenty20 decider after both the Demons and the Maroons made it through to the semi-finals next month. The Demons (3/163) easily had the better of the Maroons (110) in last season’s decider at Toomuc Reserve in Pakenham and are aiming for a brilliant third T20 title in as many seasons. But standing in the way of a repeat of last year’s grand final are Tooradin and B Grade surprise packet, Gembrook. The giant-killing Brookers (111) rolled Carlisle Park for just 79 on Sunday at Mountain Road in Cockatoo after cruising past Premier outfit Emerald by four wickets in round one. This is the second straight season the Brookers have reached the semis on the back of wins over both the Bombers and Vikings. But for the second straight season, the Brookers face the unenviable task of trying to find a way past the dominant Demons in the semis after Michael Giles’s side cruised to a five-wicket win over Pakenham Upper/Toomuc off the back of a pair of quickfire innings from Brad Remy (43) and Chris Bright (44no). The other semi-final pits Upper Beaconsfield against Tooradin after the Seagulls (6/142) beat Devon Meadows (6/141) by four wickets and the Maroons (4/112) - led by an unbeaten Bathiya Perera half-century - were far too strong for Merinda Park (109).

Spotlight shines on Bulls By DAVID NAGEL PAKENHAM may be stealing the glare of the early-season spotlight but a serious challenger is emerging for the West Gippsland Cricket Association Premier Division crown. The Lions are untouched and undefeated, clear favourites after the first half of the season, but it’s the improving form and undoubted quality of Cardinia that is emerging as a genuine threat. The Bulls (6/256) won their fourth game on the trot on Saturday with a clinical run-chase against Merinda Park (152). The star of the show for the Bulls was 21-year-old opener Alex Nooy (110), who made his maiden Premier Division century, while gun-recruit Ben Maroney (75) also put his indelible mark on proceedings. Nooy, a classy left-hander, and Maroney, a free-scoring run-machine, put the Cobras to the sword with the biggest partnership of the match. The Bulls now sit second after a slow start to the season. “We’re really happy with the way the season is going we’re building to finish in the top four, and hopefully the top
two,” skipper Neil Barfuss said after his own innings of 31 not out. Back-to-back champion Kooweerup (3/122dec and 1/188) has leapt from fifth to third on the ladder after claiming maximum points against Cranbourne Meadows (118 and 190) at Lawson Poole Reserve. The Demons had first-innings points locked away on day one and, with the Rebels on 4/49 overnight, would have expected an early-afternoon finish to day two. But Shameera Weerasinghe (86) and Shannon Marum (51) had other ideas, keeping the Demons in the sun despite the efforts of Jake Bardwell (4/27). The Demons were set 187 for outright points. The tricky-chase was accomplished with little fuss however, with Chris O’Hara (74 not out), Jess Mathers (49 not out) and Bardwell (46) all in ripping nick. Ladder-leader Pakenham (176 and 4/61) has fallen 15runs short of outright victory against Tooradin (59 and 192) at Toomuc Reserve. Lions’ skipper Dom Paynter enforced the follow-on at the beginning of day two and in-form speedster Jack
Ryan (4/73) struck early. The Seagulls looked set for a repeat of their embarrassing effort from day one before former Lion Bradey Welsh (81) and Tom Hussey (40) settled things down. The Lions were eventually set a target of 76 runs for victory off just six overs but, while every batsman was unselfish, they just fell short of their target. “I thought the attitude of the team was great throughout the game - concentration levels were up and there was really no lull,” Paynter said after the match. Ryan was the real standout for the Lions finishing with match-figures of 9/98. Upper Beaconsfield (158) also found a far more willing opponent on day two with Emerald (89 and 7/186) denying the Maroons outright points at Upper Beaconsfield. Resuming at 4/124 the Maroons coughed and spluttered their way to 158 with Matt Hutson (55 not out) batting well against the quality bowling of Clint Marsh (3/34) and Trent Rolfs (3/24). Batting a second time, Emerald was well served by Mark Alenson (68 not out), who quelled the fire of Maroons’ skipper Scott Pitcher (3/45).

Cruise convert a new face By ALISTAIR KENNEDY ANOTHER new name on the Australian motoring scene, Holden Cascada is the convertible version of the Holden Astra. Opinions are divided on the material used for convertible roofs. In the last decade or so there was a move away from the traditional fabric top towards a solid retractable roof, the logic being that buyers wanted the perceived advantages of the looks and security of a coupe when the roof is closed. Opel/ Holden followed this trend with the previous Astra Twin Top but has now reverted to the soft top roof that was used in the original Astra Convertible with the new Cascada. Convertible buyers are very fashion conscious and their cars have to look the part. Cascada ticks all the boxes, it’s a neat and attractive car. Like all convertibles it looks at its best - and attracts most looks - with the roof tucked away inside the boot. At a fraction under 4.7 metres Cascada is significantly longer than its competitors
MODEL RANGE Cascada 1.6-litre turbo-petrol two-door convertible: $41,990 (automatic)
which include the convertible variants of Audi A3, BMW 1 Series, Mini Cooper, Renault Megane CC, and VW Golf. As such it can provide a level of comfort for four full-size passengers that its smaller rivals can’t match. Rear legroom for taller occupants will probably require doing a deal with those in front. As is the norm with convertibles, boot space is compromised by the need to store the roof within it. Cascada’s 360 litres with the roof in place and 280 litres with it stored away is pretty good. There’s a 17-inch steel space saver spare wheel under the boot floor to save boot space.
Holden Cascada is an affordable cruiser either around town or on the highway. The roof has three layers and opens automatically in just 17 seconds and at speeds up to 50 km/h.

For those caught in the hustle and bustle of the silly season!
Cascada uses the same 1.6-litre four-cylinder turbopetrol engine as the sporty Astra GTC coupe with a handy 125 kW of power, and torque of 260 Nm torque from 1650 to 4500 revs. The only transmission is six-speed automatic, it does not have paddle shifters. That extra torque is welcome because, with a kerb weight of 1710 kg, Cascada is easily the heaviest car in its class. Indeed it’s heavier than many Commodore models. Fuel consumption is listed at 7.5 litres per 100 kilometres. We averaged 9.1 L/100 km during our week-long test; 7.3 L/100 on the motorway and 10.1 around the suburbs. So, as is often the way the officially measured number are very optimistic. Cascada uses the latest Holden MyLink infotainment system displayed on a seveninch colour screen display (nontouch). Features include satellite navigation; Bluetoooth phone
and audio streaming; apps such as Pandora, Stitcher and TuneIn Radio; and DAB+ digital radio. In addition to mandatory safety features such as airbags (dual front and side), ABS brakes and stability control Cascada also comes with hill start assist; dual Isofix childseat anchorage; reversing camera; rain sensing windscreen wipers; front and rear parking sensors; auto protector halogen headlights; daytime running lights and front fog lights. Other standard features include 18-inch alloy wheels; sports suspension; electric parking brake; leather trim perforated Siena seats; alloy sports pedasl; cruise control; and dual zone air conditioning. Heated front seats and steering wheel provide an added incentive to drive with the roof down during the cooler months - often the best time for opentop driving. Cascada is nimble enough around town with only reasonable outside visibility with the roof up, obviously much better with it down.
It cruises comfortably on the motorway although rough rural roads can generate some scuttle shake, which hardly comes as a surprise considering the large cabin opening but otherwise ride quality is firm and comfortable. Its mass means that it not as sporty as we’d like but steering response is predictable and safe with only a hint of understeer when pushed through corners. Holden Cascada is a welcome addition to the affordable convertible niche market and it compares well with its all-European rivals in terms of engine performance, interior space, features and price. It’s more a cruiser than a sports car but that’s what most of its potential buyers will have in mind. To arrange a test drive contact Barry Bourke Holden, 755 Princes Highway, Berwick, on 9707 2222, or Cranbourne Holden, 217A South Gippsland Highway, Cranbourne, on 5995 4555.
