ONE-ACRE
Home and away By GEORGIA WESTGARTH AND CAM LUCADOU-WELLS NARRE Warren North MP Judith Graley has been travelling a rocky road recently, coming under fire for a Facebook gaffe involving a CFA station and for her report on a taxpayer-funded European trip. Ms Graley’s recent visit to the volunteer operated Hampton Park Fire Brigade turned to ashes, amid allegations online that the visit was made in secret with paid firefighters. On her official Facebook page, Ms Graley claimed she met with “extraordinary volunteers“ while pictured with Minister for Emergency Services James Merlino, CFA District Eight Operations Manager Mark Kennedy and Trevor Owen, CFA Assistant Chief Officer for the South East Region. Disgusted local volunteers labelled it a political stunt as part of the ongoing dispute between the Victorian Government, the CFA and the United Firefighters Union (UFU). Ms Graley is putting the Facebook stuff-up down to a mistake by an electorate office staff member. In a statement, she said: “The visit to the Hampton Park CFA brigade was to tour the facilities and the Facebook post was made in error by an electorate office staff member. It was removed as soon as the mistake was identified.� The visit on Thursday 4 August was posted to Facebook the following day, but Mr Kennedy who was pictured told the News they weren’t given much time to organise volunteers. “We had a heads-up late Wednesday afternoon that they might be coming out, but it wasn’t until Thursday that they could ascertain what time,� Mr Kennedy said. “As I understand it, it wasn’t something that had been planned out weeks in advance, the timeframe didn’t allow us to get volunteers there and volunteers’ availability at short notice is restricted.�
Ms Graley’s Facebook post said that she went to the volunteer brigade to meet with volunteers. Despite one being there, she did not speak with the individual. Mr Kennedy said the group discussed the possibility of Hampton Park’s brigade extending its facilities, adding that the social media post was unfortunate.

“Obviously Judith misunderstood who she was talking to,� he said. “We didn’t say we are not volunteers – I don’t think there was any ill intent - we explained who we were, she may have thought we were volunteers not knowing any different. “I made contact via email and pointed out that it was factually incorrect, she apologised and had it removed so it didn’t cause further angst.�
Mr Kennedy admitted the mix-up between volunteers and paid firefighters was “bad timing� as the dispute lingers. “I was surprised at how it blew up, but not surprised, yes and no,� he said of the backlash. “I can understand our volunteers’ frustration – there’s a lot going on at the moment and they feel like they have been excluded from an opportu-

nity to interact with the Minister for Emergency Services,� he said. South East Metro MP, Inga Peulich, said Ms Graley ought to be embarrassed. “It is a real slap in the face for genuine volunteers to see an out of touch MP trying to pass off Labor’s preferred paid staff as volunteers,� Ms Peulich said. “This disastrous Andrews Labor Government is more interested in unionising the fire-brigade to provide itself with more union fees, than it is in providing safety to the community.� Ms Graley had already met recent Opposition criticism after a Herald Sun story into her report justifying a mid-year “field trip� to Europe in mid2015. In a two-page report, the MP described her quest as a “research project� for establishing a boutique museum/exhibition space in Melbourne CBD. It didn’t include the trip’s cost nor the cities, institutions or people she visited. She wrote that evidence “overwhelmingly� supported a boutique project in Melbourne. “Not wanting to pre-empt a government announcement I will confine this report to a few general observations and following a government decision will produce when required a more confidential report.� Her key findings included that “increasingly small spaces� and “smaller historic venues� were being used for displays, and were likely to be “cost efficient�. Ms Graley also found that volunteers were “intrinsic� to these projects. Marketing revenue from a gift shop was “essential� for the project’s financial success, she wrote. Ms Graley’s spokesman did not respond to Star News’s inquiries about the report.

Shaming ex by sex By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A CASEY man has claimed his house was trashed in retaliation for publicly releasing a sex video of his ex-partner, a court has heard. The 29-year-old self-employed carpenter pleaded guilty to distributing material contrary to community standards and acceptable conduct at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 8 August. He admitted to sending the mutually consensual sex video to two of his friends out of anger, and then contacting his ex-partner to apologise on 22 May. His lawyer said the accused had “exploded” when he found out his ex-partner had cheated on him for
“extensive periods” during their two-year “on-and-off” relationship. “He immediately regretted his decision. He was angry; he wanted to get back at her.” The lawyer said that after the incident, the man’s house was broken into and sustained $100,000 of damage to the extent that it was “unliveable”. Casey police were investigating the property damage, the court was told. The man was living at a new address while still paying a $1600 monthly mortgage on the trashed house plus $1500 a month for a factory to store his goods. “He has already suffered some
form of punishment,” the lawyer said. The man had also suffered posttraumatic stress disorder from another attack to his house in 2014. The man, who had never before fronted court, was also seeing a psychologist over his anger issues, his lawyer said. Magistrate Gerard Bryant retorted saying the submitted psychologist report didn’t address the accused’s offending. Mr Bryant questioned whether the man’s apology to his ex was genuine remorse or “akin to crocodile tears”. He said the man’s purpose was to shame his victim by sharing the “intimate” video with people not party to it.
“That is unacceptable behaviour. We live in an age in which technology allows us to share information at the push of a button. “We need to ... stop and think of the consequences before we say or share something online that can be deeply hurtful.” Mr Bryant noted the accused’s plea of guilty and absence of prior convictions. The man was put on a 12-month good behaviour bond without conviction. He was ordered to write a “heartfelt” apology to the victim, complete an anger management course and donate $300 to the court’s charitable fund.
Film set to call out men on family abuse By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS MUCH is made of threats on the street but it is in homes where the harm seems to be. Senior Sergeant Graham Stanley of Cardinia police will be MC of a public question-and-answer session at the full-length premiere of family-violence documentary Call Me Dad at Hallam Senior College this month. He said the benefit of the film – shot in Casey and featuring rare, raw footage inside men’s behaviour change courses – is that it is “real life”. “What’s rare is we’re getting it from the horse’s (perpetrator’s) mouth. “They’re verbalising the things that triggers them, then what pushes them to the other side and transforms their behaviour.” Sen Sgt Stanley said he was looking forward to the chance to talk to the Hallam audience, not just to perpetrators but to victims to empower them to make a difference. The White Ribbon Ambassador said the most common call-outs for police in Melbourne’s south east are family violence related. So far in 2016 more than 8000 callouts have been made in Greater Dandenong, Casey and Cardinia. Despite the growing media attention to the issue, the offences haven’t diminished. It’s a toxic culture that requires generational education and change, Sen Sgt Stanley said. Getting to that point – through the layers of denial – is difficult for many men. “One of the biggest challenges is the ingrained ideal that people have of an ideal marriage and relationship,” he said. “That is the dominance of males

Drive-thru bottle shops targeted By GEORGIA WESTGARTH IN JUST 40 minutes, staff at two different drivethru bottle shops were held at gunpoint in two terrifying armed robberies. On a weekend where crime was rampant, two drive-thru robberies targeted the Lynbrook Hotel and the Central Hotel in Beaconsfield. The two male offenders were armed with what was described as a meat clever or tomahawk and a small black firearm when they entered the Lynbrook Hotel on the South Gippsland Highway at 6.20pm on Sunday 7 August. The men drove through, got out of their old blue Honda Integra and threatened the attendant behind the counter with their weapons. They fled the scene with cash, cigarette lighters and alcohol. Soon after, the duo drove to the Central Hotel in Beaconsfield in the same car. Again both males got out of the car, and one male swung the tomahawk around before demanding cash and alcohol. The duo managed to pull off both armed robberies without being caught by police, and are still on the run. One offender is described as Caucasian with a tall, solid build and the other of darker skin with a tall slimmer build. Police believe the Honda Integra used in the robberies was burnt out at 10pm the same night. A car to that description was found burnt out at Kurll Park Reserve on Brundrett Drive in Narre Warren North. CFA attended and extinguished the car fire. Anyone with information on the offenders and their actions on Sunday evening is urged to call the Narre Warren police station on 9705 3111.

People think it means simply an assault. “What we know is things like the deprivation of liberty and controlling behaviours are major factors leading to physical violence down the track.” Sen Sgt Stanley said there’s also still an estimated 30 per cent of incidents that are unreported because the victims are too terrified of “con-

Forget them not By GEORGIA WESTGARTH JANINE Greening wants to ensure some of the most vulnerable in Australia’s society never get forgotten. Founder of the Forget me Not Foundation and a Casey resident, Ms Greening has been an advocate for victims of crime since 2005 – and she is the reason behind the Casey Council’s push for a Royal Commission to investigate the abuse and neglect of people in disability care. Councillor Amanda Stapledon, whose son Pete is looked after in disability care, seconded Ms Greening’s request in council, and The City of Casey will write to the Prime Minister and state premiers to seek their support for a Royal Commission. “There needs to be stronger legal protections for people with a disability, mandatory reporting and zero tolerance,” Cr Stapledon said. Ms Greening is known for speaking out after her mother was brutally raped and murdered in front of her disabled brother in 2000, and is passionate about giving a voice to victims of crime. In light of a recent parliamentary inquiry into abuse in disability services, which made 49 recommendations for reform, Ms Greening said: “It’s the first time I’ve tried for a Royal Commission, but it is the right time. “We need to get it right because we’ve had so many inquiries into abuse in disability care and so many recommendations – it’s a waste of time, because nothing gets done,” she said. The inquiry found abuse in disability services is widespread in Victoria. The Family and Community Development Committee heard abuse took many forms, including neglect, physical and sexual assault and financial, verbal and emotional abuse. The committee heard physical violence towards people with a disability was normalised. It’s something Ms Greening has felt first-hand. Her brother, Peter, 62, who has been in care

A young Peter, 20 and Janine, 22.
Cr Amanda Stapledon with her son Pete, 24. since their mother was murdered, has been assaulted in care. “I nearly lost Peter twice because of carers’ incompetence around medications,” Ms Greening said. “The United Nations has human rights for disabilities – why are we allowed to have people being treated like this?” Cr Stapledon mirrored Ms Greening’s sentiments. “From a personal point of view I’ve had numerous friends whose children with a disability have suffered neglect, abuse and death of their
children while in disability facilities and care. “I placed my son into respite on one occasion and they told me they couldn’t have him anymore. “One carer told me that feeding my son was like trying to feed a rattlesnake, that’s how little regard this person had for my son,” Cr Stapledon said. “In one instance one of my friends also from the Casey area had their son in care and when she visited him she saw he had severe bite marks all over his body that had gone unreported and the response when she reported it wasn’t what it should be.”
Ms Greening said an overarching, collective response such as a Royal Commission would be able to deliver a system that could be rolled out across Australia. “While these inquiries go on there are more unexplained deaths, more people are being abused and neglected in care,” she said. Holding back tears, Ms Greening said: “My mother before she died asked me to never forget my brother. “We have to make sure it’s a safe environment for people with a disability to be in – we owe it to them, to the ones that have suffered and the ones it’s happening to now, we owe it to them.”

A happy snap of Jesse and Matthew, taken in 2005. Jesse died while in care in 2008.
By GEORGIA WESTGARTH IN the end, the thousands of state dollars put towards protecting Jesse Duncan-McGann’s life in disability care didn't count for enough. Jesse choked to death in 2008 at 19 years of age, after eating while unsupervised at Peninsula Access and Training Centre in Langwarrin. In 2010 coroner Peter White found that on the day Jesse choked, he appeared to be happy and in good health. He ate his lunch while supervised but then later returned to the meals room. While staff were distracted by other clients, Jesse obtained food which he hurriedly ate alone. The coroner found he did not properly chew his food and choked as a result. Jesse was found lying unconscious on the floor and was resuscitated by paramedics, but two days later his life support was turned off. The Duncan-McGann family from Cranbourne cared for Jesse on weekends and after hours and Jesse's mother Deborah has since spoken of her anguish, pleading for improved training services for disability carers. Jesse’s grandmother, Anita
Duncan had worked in disability care for most of her life and now older brother Matthew McGann does too. Struggling to hold back tears, Matthew told the News why he must keep Jesse's legacy alive. Jesse was severely autistic and suffered with Asperger’s syndrome and attention deficit disorder and required 24/7 care. “Jesse was one of the most highly government funded clients in Victoria at the time,” Matthew said. “Jesse had no awareness of danger." Jesse had attended the centre for one and a half years, but six months before his death his level of care had been reduced from one-on-one, full-time care. His family said they were not informed that his level of supervision had been changed. Anita Duncan said the centre had received extra funding from the government to provide one-on-one care for Jesse, but the family later found out it had stopped because Jesse had shown good behaviour. The coroner found that failure to ensure direct supervision of Jesse led to an increased risk of injury and contributed to his death.
After Jesse’s tragic death, Matthew fought depression and even suicide. “I actually shut my heart down - losing Jesse was pretty tough on me,” he said. Matthew has worked in the field since 2013, starting out in disability day care in Cranbourne. He says abuse in different forms and levels still occurs. Matthew told the News he supported Forget Me Not Foundation founder, Janine Greening’s call for a Royal Commission into abuse in disability care, “100 per cent”. “Something needs to be done, there needs to be more awareness around these types of situations (in care) for other families,” Matthew said. “People need to understand that this is actually going on, places use training shortcuts. “I don’t blame anyone for Jesse's death, I blame the system that didn’t consider the lives the staff were looking after. “Anything that can help save lives in care needs to be looked at - maybe Jesse's life and his testimony can help to save another life. “And to be a voice for Jesse is an honour.”

I WOULD like to respond to Doris of Berwick’s letter ‘Lack of infrastructure’ (News, 28 July). The author raises some valid concerns about planning for appropriate infrastructure to meet the needs of our growing city. Council understands these concerns, and is committed to (and has a proven track record of) adequately planning for growth with excellent infrastructure Alira at Berwick is covered by the Berwick Waterways Precinct Structure Plan (PSP) and Berwick Waterways Development Contribution Plan under the Metropolitan Planning Authority. The PSP identifies a vision for the precinct as a new residential community that will integrate with the existing neighbourhood, and provide future residents with opportunities to live, work, shop and play locally. Developers must submit plans within the PSP framework, which considers the road network and impacts on traffic flow, public transport links and pedestrian paths, as well as land for residential, employment, schools and community facilities. Council continues to advocate to the State Government for investments into public transport and an improved arterial road network as many of the main roads surrounding the new estates are not council’s responsibility. For more information on council’s advocacy and the Berwick Waterways PSP, visit www. casey.vic.gov.au. Cr Sam Aziz, Mayor, City of Casey.

Socially speaking Poor state of emergency at hospital: The system wouldn’t be so stressed either if people didn’t go to emergency for everyday stuff like colds, flus and issues that aren’t an as the word says an EMERGENCY! If you are referred by your GP or have a genuine emergency no worries you need to be there but been to ED plenty and seen people and been told by nurses that a lot of cases are people that don’t need emergency which clogs the system when they can attend many 24 hours GP clinics around! People are just as much to blame with the stess on this hospital! Penny Giaquinta, via Facebook I was in Monday and all up from walking into emergency seeing triage and getting into the department took me 30 minutes. I was there most of the day but couldn’t fault the nurses or doctor who saw me and if there was to be a wait for anything kept me informed. The staff are clearly under pressure to keep clearing beds but I felt they were thorough in treating me. The department needs funding to run smoothly, it is a hospital right in the middle of a huge growth corridor. The government needs to help with the money needed for equipment or even to just be able to employ more staff. I wouldn’t want to be an emergency department staff member, that’s for sure.

pharmacist can’t? If people stop going to hospital when they have no reason to be there, things would improve for everyone. Jmh Henriksen, via Facebook The hospital isn’t big enough for the amount of people in this area, I feel sorry for all the people who work there, understaffed and no funding. I’m just so glad we have a free service, so if we have to wait so be it I guess, The poor staff can only do what they can do with what they are given, plus people who don’t need to go to a hospital. Kristyn McDermott, via Facebook It’s a long wait in any hospital big or small ... totally understaffed ... run off their feet and grossly underpaid. I recently saw this at both Dandenong and Casey, orthopaedic surgeons on duty for 38 hours out of the weekend ... ridiculous, and yet they still give you their best .Sometimes it’s worth the wait to get amazing care. Tracy Rankine, via Facebook I have nothing but praise for the doctors and nurses at Casey emergency department. Robert Wingrave, via Facebook I have been in the ED a few times this year and have had outstanding care, without too much of a wait. I cannot praise the staff, nurses and doctors highly enough.

It’s None Of Our Business But ... PARLEZ vous News? Demand for the News has gone international with members of the Hampton Park Centre of the Victorian School of Languages asking if the newspaper could also be printed in French. A member of the school contacted the News after Daniel Andrews visited last month but lamented that she had to go elsewhere to read the story in her mother tongue. She pointed out that the Cranbourne, Hampton Park and Dandenong areas have a high proportion of Francophiles who would enjoy reading news stories to brush up on their language skills. But the good news is that the News is available in not only French but a wide variety of languages from Afrikaans to Zulu.
Readers who view the News online with a Chrome browser only need to right click in the middle of the story’s text, select Translate To English then when the This Page Has Been Translated box opens, click on Options and the rest of the instructions are easy to navigate. THERE was something lost in translation in a Dandenong courtroom recently. A Burmese interpreter - without qualifications - was reluctantly given the go-ahead to help an accused man on 8 August. The interpreter assured the judge that he’d worked at courts for years, but seemed all at sea and strangely silent during the trial. As the case meandered into lunchtime, the increasingly exasperated judge repeatedly prompted the interpreter to speak.
She had noted earlier - and rather presciently - that there was a reason why interpreters required qualifications. “Sir, you just have to say what’s been said in court. If you can do that, that would be very helpful.” At one stage the accused bypassed his aide and spoke his case to the judge himself in broken English. “Can we make a note on this?” the judge asked her clerk. DANDENONG Magistrates’ Court was sent back to the Stone Age when its computer systems crashed all day on 8 August. As judges were forced to hand-write their sentences and orders, one quipped that they had gone back to “chisels and stone - and white-out”.

Nowhere to run for Tamils TAMIL asylum seekers in the Greater Dandenong-Casey region are in hiding after the Australian Border Force reportedly raided homes in a ramped-up operation to send young men back to Sri Lanka. Asylum seeker advocates say that about 20 people have been snatched in home raids in recent weeks, and that many of the hundreds of Tamil asylum seekers in the area are at risk. Some have gone underground leaving behind their homes, work, friends and even their mobile phones as they sleep in their cars. Star News believes there are plans among home-grown supporters to set up sanctuaries to hide at-risk asylum seekers. Recently three males were removed from their south-east Melbourne home late at night by ABF officers and taken to a detention centre. Within days, one of them was flown to Sri Lanka, the others are believed to have lodged appeals while in detention. Jesuran Wellness Centre spokeswoman Catherine Franklin said many had recently had their applications rejected as part of the Federal Government’s ‘fast track’ program. She said asylum-seekers classified as “double negatives” have had Centrelink payments and work rights cut off even as they await the outcomes of last-ditch appeals. “Their mental health is going downhill particularly for those who can’t earn an income.” Another plentiful local populace, the Hazara community, especially those who arrived from Pakistan, is expected to be targeted next by ABF, Ms Franklin said. She and Tamil advocates dispute
the government line that it is safe for Tamils to return to Sri Lanka due to the end of the long-running civil war. Kumar Narayanawami is a Springvale-based Tamil case manager who was once in a similar predicament as his clients. He said he knows that 80 per cent of the Tamils in the area are on a visa knife-edge and their civil war traumas are compounded by depression and anxiety. He fled Sri Lanka by boat four years ago after he got a phone tip-off that his face came up on a Sri Lankan Government computer as a person of interest. Others under suspicion of Tamil Tiger links had been taken from homes and jailed or “disappeared” by the military and police without prior warning. But advocates say Tamils now require proof of a direct serious threat or physical harm to remain in Australia. They say those that are returned are likely to be jailed and only released on a family bond. Some suspected as Tamil Tiger sympathisers are still tortured. Dandenong-based Tamil activist Aran Mylvaganam said there’s still a “silent war” going on in Sri Lanka. “It’s a real worry that only a small percentage - about 10-20 per cent - of (Tamil asylum claims) are being accepted, given the serious nature of what’s happening in Sri Lanka’s north and east. “The community is living in enormous fear. They don’t know what’s going to happen to them next. “We’re calling for a moratorium on Tamil deportations.” A Department of Immigration and Border Protection spokeswoman said the department didn’t comment on investigations, specific operations or
Kumar Narayanaswami with three Tamil males at risk of deportation. 157610 people removed from Australia. “The department continues to return people who have been found not to engage Australia’s protection obligations, and have no further outstanding immigration matters. “People who have exhausted all avenues to remain in Australia, do not hold a valid visa, and have no lawful
basis to remain are expected to return home voluntarily.” She said “appropriate assistance” was given to “non-citizens” to establish them back in their country of origin, often with co-operation with their “international partners”. Meanwhile the Dandenong-based Jesuran Wellness Centre has put out an urgent call for donated food and goods

AN accused serial bail-dodger has been captured by police after crashing an allegedly stolen car and refusing a breath test in Endeavour Hills. Mother of three Tania Jayne Weatherley, of Endeavour Hills, who was facing at least 18 charges, was refused bail at a Dandenong Magistrates’ Court hearing on 8 August. Weatherley had allegedly crashed as she tried to drive around a vehicle stopped at a red light at a Heatherton Road intersection about 4.15pm on 3 August. Nominal informant Sergeant Kerrie Bourke of Dandenong police told the court there was “substantial” damage to both cars. When police arrived at the scene, Weatherley was allegedly unable to provide a driver's licence and falsely identified herself using her sister’s name. She refused to answer questions, get out of the car or to go to a police station to provide a breath test, the court was told. The vehicle she drove was
affixed with a number plate stolen from a car in Endeavour Hills the day before, Sgt Bourke said. She was later arrested at a caravan in Endeavour Hills. Another allegedly stolen car was parked outside with a number plate stolen from Reservoir a week earlier, the court was told. Weatherley had been on bail facing 18 charges laid by six different police officers at the time. Over the previous year, she was the subject of 24 arrest warrants for failing to appear in court while on bail. She had eight prior convictions for not turning up to court. Sgt Bourke told the court Weatherley was a self-confessed drinker of five litres of cask wine a day. The informant described the accused as “almost homeless”, given she lived in a damaged caravan without running water or plumbing. Weatherley, who represented herself, told the court she had borrowed the first vehicle for 15 minutes to get food. She told the court she was
on Seroquel medication that had deterred her from drinking “for a long time”. “That girl I hit on the side it wasn’t a lot of damage. She braked really hard and the car I had was older (and couldn’t brake in time).” She told the court she’d been jailed for three months “not long ago”. “I’ve got three kids that need to see me home, and I had one not long ago. “I know I did the wrong thing. I can do harsh conditions - sign in daily at the police station and do breath tests.” Magistrate Gerard Bryant noted Weatherley had appeared to have breached her bail conditions of not driving and not drinking alcohol. “If you’re drinking alcohol and driving cars you’re not only a risk for yourself but everybody else on the road. “I’ve got no confidence at all you’ll show up for bail under any conditions.” Weatherley was remanded to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court on 10 August.

THE Casey Council intends to sell land in Narre Warren to reduce the amount of borrowed money for Bunjil Place. In accordance with the Local Government Act, the Casey Council has published its notice of intention to sell the land currently occupied by the Casey
Lifestyle Centre and Percy Trewin Annexe (PTA) on the corner of the Narre WarrenCranbourne Road and the Princes Highway. But the idea is open for resident submissions via mail or personal drop off until 5 September. Casey mayor Sam Aziz said
the proposal would free up funds to be reinvested into securing land for future community infrastructure. “The council’s Property Strategy provides a framework to guide the acquisition, leasing, use, maintenance and disposal of council-owned land,” Cr Aziz said.

clean-up costs, these penalties send a clear message that illegal dumping will not be tolerated in Casey.” Cr Aziz said Dan’s Diggers could have properly disposed of the rubbish at a private landfill for $554. Casey’s waste and recycling manager Michael Jansen said the council had done 1761 dumped rubbish inspections and issued 93 related infringements in 2015-'16. Mr Jansen said the council was proactively targeting typical dumping sites such as isolated rural or semi-rural roads, building sites and new estates. “People can dispose of their waste correctly by using a transfer station or reputable private waste collection company.” To book a hard waste collection, call Casey Council on 9729 9100 or book online at casey.vic.gov.au.

Magistrate Sharon McRae said the $1400-plus clean-up costs claimed by Casey seemed expensive. “At the end of the day, there’s a large amount of rubbish in a public area. “We have to send a message that you can’t be doing it.” Dan’s Diggers faced a maximum of $70,000 for the offence. It was fined $1000 without conviction. Casey Council was awarded $2500 in costs. The council stated to Star News that it had issued more than $100,000 in fines for dumping in the past 18 months, but was spending more than $850,000 a year to collect and dispose 3000 tonnes of illegal rubbish. Mayor Sam Aziz said the money could be better spent on roads, parks and community buildings. “While the fines do not come close to covering the

A DEVON Meadows business has been spared conviction after illegally dumping 2.4 tonnes of home-renovation rubbish on a secluded road in Junction Village. In July last year, Dan’s Diggers was paid $2100 to collect assorted rubbish - including carpet, plasterboards, a bathtub, timber frames and a door - from a Langwarrin address, Dandenong Magistrates’ Court heard. The material was collected in a tip-top truck and then found dumped in Botanic Drive, Junction Village on 3 August 2015. On inspection of the debris, Casey Council officers found a bank statement for ‘Harshan’ which led them to the accused business. Dan’s Diggers owner George Horvat told the court on 8 August that a worker had disobeyed his instructions to take the material to a landfill. “He was a drug addict just taking the money,” Mr Horvat said, adding that the financial position of his business was “not too good”. “We didn’t have him for long.” The council submitted for costs of $3215.11 - including about $1650 for legal fees. Solicitor Chris Andrews, on behalf of Casey, said “serious general deterrence” was necessary due to rubbish dumping being a “huge problem” for local councils. Mr Andrews noted Dan’s Diggers - which had no prior convictions - had been paid

VCAT says no NARRE WARREN
By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS
TRADING HOURS
A Buddhist place of worship in a Doveton residential area has been knocked back by the Victorian Civil Administrative Tribunal due to its “detrimental” parking overflow. The place of worship had been operating without planning permission in a large room at the back of a residence on a “modest sized” lot on Cootamundra Street, VCAT member Geoff Rundell stated in his decision on 3 August. As a consequence, it had received several Casey Council infringement notices. The building had been a residence for up to five Buddhist monks, and attended by worshippers from Cambodian, Chinese and Vietnamese communities in Doveton and nearby suburbs. Mr Rundell rejected the monks’ appeal to VCAT for a planning permit for up to 30 worshippers on weekends and

a reduction of required on-site car parking from nine spaces to three. The house is opposite a site approved for a future 250-student private school but that didn’t constitute a commercial precinct or cluster of non-residential uses, Mr Rundell said. “I think it is a standalone place of worship that is specifically discouraged in planning policy. The monks’ applicant Chea Thuong Vong argued the indoor services generated little noise, and denied they would cause traffic or parking problems. He argued the “intensity of use would be similar to residents hosting family and friends.” Casey Council argued that a shared outdoors meal after the ceremonies generated “excessive” noise, incense smells and food odours for neighbours. Large numbers had attended on special occasions, the council argued.
“It has no confidence that the place of worship would be limited to 30 persons and two days a week,” Mr Rundell noted - though he stated he had to assume the monks’ compliance with the permit. Casey submitted the monks’ suggested hard paving parking area at the front of the building limited its landscaping potential and detracted from neighbourhood character. The place of worship generated a high demand for on-street parking on both sides of Cootamundra Street, Casey argued. Mr Rundell concluded the place of worship catered to local needs but they didn’t outweigh “location, amenity and appearance considerations”. “In my view it is an inappropriate location and its appearance does not comfortably fit into the local residential streetscape because of the extent of hard surface in the front setback (used for car parking) and the limited landscaping.”
A complex tale THERE’S no shortage of pratfalls in the upcoming Australian professional musical-theatre premiere of Curtains, says actor and assistant choreographer Darren Tyler. The Hallam performer spoke to Star News as its rehearsing cast were unpacking this complex comedic murder mystery, which has been nominated for eight Tony Awards. It is set in Boston, 1959, at the opening night of a failing cowboy musical Robin Hood of the Old West. When its “terrible” leading lady is murdered during the curtain call, the play’s cast are all suspects. A theatre-loving detective Frank Cioffi then quarantines the theatre, tries to solve the case and to improve the show. Mr Tyler, who plays an ensemble character Randy Dexter, says Curtains’ ‘play within a play’ complexity could make it the most difficult of his 13 shows with The Production Company. Even so, rehearsals have proven a hoot with the show’s stars such as Simon Gleeson, Melissa Langton, John Wood, and the dry, witty Colin Lane. Mr Tyler said he enjoyed
working again with the company, especially reuniting for the sixth time with choreographer Dana Jolly and director Roger Hodgman. “We just finished Fiddler on the Roof together a couple of months ago in Melbourne and Sydney. They’re so very prepared, they’re a great team.” Mr Tyler started work as a dancer as a 16-year-old, having grown up in Endeavour Hills and trained at the Helen Alcock School of Dance in Hallam. When he grew up watching shows such as Cats with his parents, he didn’t realise the performers had the same sort of upbringing and training. “I had thought I could only be a dance teacher. I didn’t realise you could make a living doing shows. “That’s what I wanted to do to work as a performer.” He has been part of musicals since he was 21, including famous shows such as Cats, Saturday Night Fever and Miss Saigon. “I’ve loved doing musicals. I’ve never done a show I hated. “That’s to do with the cast. I’ve worked with really fun people.” His career highlight was touring nationally and overseas
Darren Tyler is set for big laughs in the ex-Broadway hit Curtains. with Cats for two-and-a-halfyears. He says he never got sick of the show or the cast and crew, who became like family. He was just happy to be employed in the pursuit. Curtains is at the State Theatre, Arts Centre Melbourne on August 20-28. for a season of 10 performances. Tickets are available at Arts Centre Melbourne and Ticketmaster.

Sleep crash By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS AN ice-using suspended driver told police he thought he fell asleep when he crashed into the back of a stationary vehicle on a Monash Freeway off-ramp, a court heard. Andrew Pierson, 21, - who had been previously convicted for suspended driving seven times - had crashed his car at unknown speed at the Heatherton Road overpass intersection about 6am on 16 October. Both cars required towing from the scene, the court heard. The force of the crash caused the victim's vehicle to hit the car in front, police prosecutor Senior Constable Ryan Johnson told the court. Pierson allegedly told police at the time he didn’t know how the crash happened. “I wasn’t speeding ... I must have fallen asleep.” At the time, Pierson was on a suspended three-month jail
sentence for multiple counts of disqualified driving imposed in April 2015. He was also put on a community corrections order in December for two counts of driving suspended. Pierson’s lawyer told the court the accused, who was a heavy ice user at the time, had since “considerably” turned his life around, no longer had a car and abstained from all drug use. Under his CCO, the accused had completed about half of his unpaid work requirement, completed drug treatment and engaged with mental-health practitioners. He was now prioritising his family, particularly his two children, the court was told. The lawyer said Pierson’s “considerable efforts” to rehabilitate himself, his youth and the detriment to his family should spare him from jail - despite the suspended sentence hanging over his head.
Magistrate Gerard Bryant said there was a community expectation for the suspended sentence to be restored. “The only thing that has saved you is your youth and that you seem to be proactive (in your rehabilitation).” Mr Bryant said the real challenge was for Pierson to maintain the effort, and to demonstrate to the court he was growing up. Pierson’s licence was disqualified for a further 12 months on top of its two-year cancellation. He was put on a further 12-month CCO including 100 hours of unpaid work and treatment programs and judicial monitoring. “Unless you can sustain the efforts you have made, you’re looking at a jail sentence,” Mr Bryant said. “You’re a long way from the finishing line. I hope you make it.”
Man burnt in shopping centre car explosion POLICE still don’t know why a car exploded at the Casey Central Shopping Centre car park over the weekend. In a spectacular eruption of fire a man was in the car at the time of the explosion, about 10.20pm on Saturday 6 August. The male driver was badly burnt and was taken by ambulance to The Alfred hospital. Casey police believe the
blaze was started by a gas bottle which exploded inside the car. Nearby PSO officers rendered immediate assistance and police, ambulance and firies soon attended the scene. The police investigation is ongoing, any witnesses are urged to contact the Narre Warren Police Station on The car burnt explosively. 157817 9705 3111. Picture: Narre Warren CFA

BAND-AIDS don’t heal mental illnesses, nor do websites - but this one can put you on the right track. It’s a site specifically designed for the outer south-east growth region and can link its users to the best local mental health services for them. Developed by not-for-profit mental health service, Ermha in conjunction with Partners In Recovery, the ‘Mental Health Compass’ aims to beat the confusion around service providers. Launched in May this year the website comes as the State Government boosts the mental health sector with $14 million for a revamp of Monash Children’s Hospital’s facilities. The cash injection is set to go towards a ‘Early in Life Mental Health Service’ (ELMHS) to be integrated into the new children’s hospital. The Victorian Government's 10-year Mental Health Plan has seen a State investment of more than $43.48 million, over four years, to support the mental health of children. Mental health practitioner, trainer and project officer on Ermha’s new online tool, Tamara Stillwell understands firsthand how mental illnesses don’t discriminate with age. “One in two people will suffer a mental health issue in their lives and one in five will develop a mental illness,” Ms Stillwell said. “Mental illness is one of the most pressing issues of our times. Not only does it cause
The 'Mental Health Compass' was developed for the City of Casey, the Cardinia Shire and the City of Greater Dandenong and can direct users to mental health services in their area and specific to their needs. 157664 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS intense suffering for many people, it can cause relationship and family breakdowns, and losses in productivity. “The cost to Australian businesses is over $6.5 billion a year. The cost to taxpayers is over $8 billion a year.” Ms Stillwell said the site aimed to ease one area of the intricate issue. “Mental health by its very nature is complex and our mental health systems are often difficult for clients and their families to navigate,” she said. “The Compass was built because it was noted by consumers, carers and service providers that our mental health and social services system was often confusing and difficult to understand.” A range of in-the-know professionals worked together to
build the Compass, which links users to regional on-the-ground services, websites, mental health legislation and helplines which specialise in a range of conditions including: trauma and abuse, homelessness, bullying, alcohol and other drugs, gambling and family violence. Ms Stillwell said the Compass was originally developed for the City of Casey, the City of Greater Dandenong and Cardinia Shire, but was now being extended to include services in Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. “Local residents have a consumer-friendly tool that gives them an overview of mental health and social services, to empower them to make more informed choices for themselves, or the people they are caring for,” Ms Stillwell said.

SPRING racing in Cranbourne never looked so neat, with two new on-course stables and a fast sand training track opened for use at the Cranbourne Turf Club. Minister for Racing Martin Pakula unveiled the first stage of the $6.5 million stables complex and a refurbished training track at the Cranbourne Training Complex on Wednesday 10 August. CEO at the Turf Club Neil Bainbridge said refurbishment would allow the complex to cater for the “increasing demand from trainers”. The stables complex involves five separate sites and when completed will house almost 250 horses, with tie-up stalls and a mezzanine floor viewing platform overlooking the training tracks. The remaining two sites are scheduled to be completed in October. Around 275 horses use the track each day and the extensive wear caused the surface to break down, making it unsuitable for training and unusable during wet weather. The new track provides a safer and more forgiving surface, and improved drainage allows trainers to carry out track work in most weather conditions. The State Government has
Leanne Fielding with Charlton in the new stables. 157745 Picture: GARY SISSONS contributed almost $1 million to the complex, courtesy of its Victorian Racing Industry Fund, with the remaining funding provided by the Cranbourne Turf Club. The government has also provided $120,000 towards the rebuild of the fast sand track, with Racing Victoria contributing $100,000 and the club pro-
viding $20,000. Minister for Racing Martin Pakula said: “The Cranbourne Training Complex is vital for the Victorian racing industry and we are proud to be contributing to this important project.” “These works will set a new standard for on-course stabling and restore the sand track to optimal condition.”

Book Now for Father’s Day WELCOME TO TRADITIONAL UZBEK AND AFGHAN CUISINE
The scene after Olivia Steadman-Meconi's accident at the intersection in May last year.
Solution on roundabout By GEORGIA WESTGARTH IT’S been the site of two fatalities and 17 crashes in the past five years, and now funding has been secured to build a roundabout at the notorious intersection at Pearcedale. The State Government will pour $6.2 million into the Western Port Highway and Robinsons Road intersection to build a dual-lane roundabout. It’s been more than a year since the death of 19-yearold Olivia Steadman-Meconi prompted a massive plea from locals for a roundabout to be built. The planned roundabout
will remove the problem of motorists failing to give way at the intersection and failing to select safe gaps in traffic when crossing onto the Highway. The upgrade will address the history of crashes that all involved vehicles colliding while travelling through the intersection. Interim safety improvements were made to the intersection, which included banning turn movements, but it didn’t stop everyone. The News reported on incidents of road users disobeying the interim measures in September last year. Planning work on the roundabout is expected
to start this year, with construction due to start in 2017. Member for Hastings Neale Burgess said the roundabout will stand as a tribute to those who have tragically lost their lives at this intersection. “The Robinsons Road site is one of the most dangerous intersections in the south-east, so it will be great to see this project take shape,” Mr Burgess said. “Our local communities have won a great victory and should be very proud of their achievement. They fought long and hard to try and prevent any further tragedies from occurring at this intersection.”

Firies help out a mate By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS A NARRE Warren CFA volunteer laid low in hospital by a flesh-eating bug has given whole-hearted thanks to the fire-fighting colleagues who gave his home a surprise makeover. Paul ‘Tiny’ Little was lost for words for much of his videoed tribute to his mates, who chipped in $400 to replace pickets on a gate as well as carrying out a day-long working bee at the Narre Warren South house. About 20 brigade members, led by captain Paul Hardy, painted inside most of the home, replaced damaged flyscreens, repaired sliding doors, took away junk to the tip and got power to the shed. Still in his Sandringham Hospital bed, Mr Little wrote on Facebook he was “blown away by the willingness of my CFA family to jump in without my knowledge”. “It’s so wonderful to have a group of volunteers who not only give up their time to help the community in times of need but to give up a glorious Sunday to make life easier for one of the family. “I know it’s a big effort and I am grateful to you all.” It gave a silver lining to Mr
Paul Little stands for the first time in weeks during his recovery. Little’s month of hell in hospital after innocuously cutting his knee while pulling up carpet at home. The cut, which was at the site of a knee replacement, got infected then attacked by a flesh-eating bug. After the first surgery, Mr Little was close to being put into an induced coma. He was told that the worst case scenario was amputation.
Three further operations later, Mr Little has stood for the first time but faces a long, slow rehabilitation. Mr Little told Star News he’s been to 3000 call-outs - including major bushfires and factory blazes - in his 20-year volunteering with CFA. He also works as an admin support officer at the CFA’s Dandenong regional headquarters. “If someone’s having a bad day, we try and make it better for them.” The brigade has chipped in with working bees and homecooked meals for several members doing it tough in the past, he says. He made a point of thanking his wife Sue who had kept the household running, including visiting him most days and keeping up with their two kids’ school, Scouts and sports runs. “She has been sensational. I don’t know how she’s done everything. “When I get home, I’ll have to take her to dinner - just the two of us.” Read Mr Little’s message to colleagues on faceb o o k . c o m / p a u l t i n y. l i t t l e / posts/10154421789769413

The agony and ecstasy of ice By GEORGIA WESTGARTH
don’t know who they are. “Drugs don’t discriminate – anyone can do drugs and fit into a minority.” Bianca was a dealer and a user and used certain tactics to keep the cycle turning over, tactics that didn’t involve stealing, but stuff she’d rather not discuss. Debt soon accumulated, Bianca lost contact with her family and the drug became more like a medication than a bit of fun. “I paid for my habit by selling ice, most people that are addicted to ice are also dealers – they can, basically, use for free,” Bianca said. “Ice made me feel like my problems didn’t matter anymore, that nothing else matters, and I look back on them now and they weren’t even problems. “Ice created them in my head. Bianca, who now lives with her parents in Cockatoo, has had five goals in her 26 years. One goal was to help people – that’s why she worked in disability care before ice froze that future. For the next seven years from 19 years old to 15 months ago, Bianca had the same goal – to get off ice. She failed three times before achieving her second goal. That leaves just one last goal - to help others get off drugs for good through her course in life coaching. “When I went clean I put on 20 kilograms in two and a half weeks which was a massive amount of weight gain. I’m about 164cm tall, I’ve never been overweight before,” she said. Between the weight gain and the acne
FORMER ice addict Bianca Hawkins offers advice to those thinking of trying the drug – “you can’t hate yourself that bad to want to do ice – because that’s all it is, punishing yourself”. “At the start ice gave me a feeling like no other, at the end it was an anti-anxiety medication,“ said Bianca. “It did the opposite to what it did in the beginning – I just needed it to survive.” Bianca is another star graduate of former drug dealer and addict Glenn Munso’s Youth YOU drug rehabilitation program and gym in Hallam. Bianca said Glenn’s program works because decisions aren’t taken away from addicts like they are with other drug rehabilitation clinics. “Youth YOU gives you the tools to make decisions for yourself, its empowering,” she said. “I’ve been in rehab before and your choices get taken away from you, you’re locked away from the environment you are used to and when you are released back into that environment drugs are the first thing you want to do. “With Glenn you have the choice, you either want to be there or you don’t.” Bianca started taking ecstasy at 15. By the time she was 19 she had graduated to the harder stuff – crystal methamphetamine, or ice. “I started on ecstasy at school, Ferntree Gully High, at parties,” Bianca said. “Self-confidence plays a big part in getting on drugs, because they (addicts)
outbreaks Bianca was in hell. “It was really hard to deal with, made me want to go back on ice, but I knew I had to hang it out,” she said. At the height of her addiction Bianca said she didn’t eat much but once off the drug she couldn’t eat enough. “All I was doing was eating and sleeping, my body was craving everything because it had been deprived for so long,” she said. “My hair just started growing back, your hair falls out when you use. I destroyed all my internal organs.” Bianca said the repercussions on the body isn’t something a user thinks about. “You think you’ll just get off it and it’ll be fine, the last thing you think is that your body will need to recover from it. “I knew my mind would have to recover from the addiction but not my body.” Bianca recalls sleeping in cars around the south-east suburbs for eight months as hitting rock bottom. “You surround yourself with people that you don’t know, everyone’s a stranger but they are all you have,” she said. “The strangers are the closest people to you at that time, they are the people you sell to and deal with.” These are now the same people Bianca has had to disassociate with completely to avoid relapsing like she has in the past. Having pushed away old friends due to ice, and then pushing away the new wave of friends because of ice, Bianca can now say she has a new group of friends ... because of ice. But they all have one thing in common – ice isn’t in their future.
Bianca Hawkins knows ice. Now 26 years old, she started taking drugs at 15. Now she has some advice for drug users. 157525 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS

Dads and mentors enjoy activities with Hillcrest students.
Men at play HUNDREDS of dads flooded the Hillcrest Christian College multipurpose centre for an evening of fun activities at the school’s first Dads Mentors Date Night. Dads, stepdads, uncles, grandpas and other male mentors were invited to join Hillcrest students for a night of games, prizes, snags, laughs and a special message for astronauts in training. There was a selection of table-top and large-scale games set up along with basketball courts, giving participants the chance to share some special one-on-one time with their children. Casey City Church’s Kevin Manning said the Blue Block Charades proved a popular game because it is run like a
game show. It challenged players to work together to build specific objects out of life-size building blocks. With a time-limit, the pressure was on and those watching in the audience sat together trying to work out what the item was, much like traditional charades. A space presentation was delivered by NASA-trained space science teacher Mr Manning on the subject of ‘astronaut training’. “It was a fun night enjoyed by all. It was fantastic seeing male role models getting involved with the children,” he said. “Research shows that when a committed dad or male mentor participates in school activi-
ties and events, a child’s developmental outcomes improve in every area. Male mentors are important in children’s futures. That is a fact.” The free event gave attendees the opportunity to make a silver-coin donation towards supporting the men’s shed. Participants brought their five, 10, 20 and 50 cent pieces that were found lying around their homes. Due to its success, another Dads Mentors Date Night is planned in the coming weeks at Rivercrest Christian College. The event was held as a joint effort between Casey City Church’s Kevin Manning, Andrew Austin of City of Casey’s Dad’s Matter and Hillcrest community development officer Melani Van der Westhuizen.

THE ULTIMATE INDULGENCE SET in a dress-circle court location is this irresistible, contemporary modern fourbedroom residence on a roomy quarter-acre. A great deal of pride has gone into this oneowner, architecturally designed family home and the next lucky owner will walk in with not a thing to do. Dramatic vaulted ceilings in each of the three living zones create a sense of opulence and space – finished off in square set cornicing, the surprises have just started! The main living zone to the rear is the ideal space for leisurely, sunfilled entertaining – central kitchen with cascading Caesarstone tops, tons of storage space and stainless steel appliances.
Exemplary in design, the kitchen and casual living area look out of panoramic windows to the in-ground solar heated, salt pool – all the family activities can be enjoyed from the one space. A movie room/formal lounge area provides for quiet time and a central rumpus room serves the need for extra living space. Upstairs is a hotel-inspired master suite featuring the same vaulted ceilings, three walk-in robes and a full luxury ensuite. Externally the garage is fit for three vehicles, with drive through to the rear yard, and a toilet serves the pool area.
Many different entertaining options - a courtyard barbecue, a lazy Sunday under the gazebo or kick the footy in the back garden area – the choice is yours. Added extras of ducted heating, refrigerated cooling, double glazed windows, three split-systems, parking onsite for seven cars, and so much more that only an inspection will unveil. Clean, crisp and a class apart from the rest! Location perfect – Beaconhills College, Hillcrest School, Casey hospital and Monash Freeway all within easy access – don’t delay, call for an inspection immediately.

Students join space race By ALANA MITCHELSON BERWICK students are among about 200 teenagers from across the country chosen to take part in a space school program at NASA in America. In alignment with the recent push for girls to pursue science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) related career paths, the two-week program will empower young female selectees with the chance to visit the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) in Houston and to work with leaders in the field. Twelve St Margaret’s Berwick students will lift off to HASSE Space School for both senior and junior expeditions this December, with the opportunity to experience STEM in a world setting. Year 12 student Jessica Bhardwaj said the trip would provide her with rich, hands-on experience that would be a valuable talking point for future job interviews regardless of what field she decided to pursue. “Apart from being in a whole different country and learning a new culture, it’ll be a great way to end the year. Not many people would have this kind of an opportunity. It’s great not only for the resume but for my own life experience,“ Jessica said. “We’re given a group mission where we work in groups of four or five. We’re given a synopsis to a problem and work on it over a few days. We then present it to a panel and if they like the idea then we’ll enter in a global competition.“ Year 7 student Mehr Ali was fortunate to have been awarded one of the two scholarships on offer to Victorian students by the Alliance of Independent Girl’s Schools Australia, which covers all program costs and includes domestic and international flights, accommodation, meals and ground travel.

Year 7 student Mehr Ali is excited for her first trip to America. 157403 “I took an immediate interest in science classes since starting high school,“ the 12-year-old said. “Part of the program involves going to a university in Houston for astronaut training and to disect sharks so that will be a new experience. “There’ll be a lot of useful information, and hopefully it will give me an insight into what I might like to do in the future, and if science is my passion, to concentrate on that.“ St Margaret’s Head of Science Department Krista Bayliss said it was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the girls to meet NASA scientists, astronauts and physicists. She said attendees would develop 21st century skills in problem solving, logistical planning and group commu-
nication while planning for a mission to Mars. “It is an amazing opportunity and one which has seen St Margaret’s send the equal largest group of students to take part in this two-week experience,“ Ms Bayliss said. “This is reflective of our girls’ passion for the ’sciences’, their resilience and willingness to step outside their comfort zone and the wonderful support of their learning from their families - that we have such a large group taking part in such an amazing experience.“ Other participating Victorian schools include Ivanhoe Girls Grammar School, Loreto Manderville Hall, Mentone Girls Grammar School, St Columba’s College, Firbank, Strathcona and Catholic Ladies College.

Bowen’s Disease is a cell cancer BOWEN’S Disease is a superficial variant of squamous cell cancer of the skin which has not yet become invasive. It is also known as squamous cell cancer in situ. It is slow growing over months or years and takes the form of pink/ red, roughened patches. It can occur on any sun exposed skin surface such as the face and arms but classically occurs on the
lower legs. It is named after the early 20th century American dermatologist Dr John T. Bowen. It is treated by surgical excision or by anti-cancer creams. The Sun Patrol Skin Cancer Clinic is at 48 Van Der Haar Avenue, Berwick. For more information, visit www.sunpatrolscc.com.au or call 9769 3358.

Whyte said. “Although there are a few things you can do to protect your own identity, you can also be confident that we’re doing everything within our power to keep your personal details safe and secure. “For example, just like your bank, the ATO will now send you a ‘Was this you?’ message via SMS or email when your ATO online account is linked to another myGov account.” Mr Whyte said while the ATO had seen an increase in identity crime related to refund fraud, new technology is helping it to catch fraudulent behaviour earlier than ever. “We’re using sophisticated analytics to uncover acts of identity crime and refund fraud, and consistently monitor our online systems to pick up any instances of unusual activity. “Our systems help us stop incorrect, invalid or fraudulent refunds before they are paid out. “This includes placing extra security checks on accounts or adding fraudulent bank accounts to watch lists so refunds will not issue. “If we think a person’s identity has been compromised, we get in touch with them. Our Client Identity Support Centre provides support to taxpayers who have had their identities stolen, misused or otherwise compromised.” Mr Whyte said that the ATO works with law enforcement and other agencies to take action when fraudulent activity is uncovered. “We provide the Australian Federal Police and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission with relevant intelligence and information on any suspected instances of identity crime. “This is an ongoing relationship where we provide intelligence and support on a continual

THE Australian Taxation Office is reminding Australians to protect themselves against identify theft this tax time. Assistant Commissioner Graham Whyte said identity theft was more common during tax time because of the large number of people lodging tax returns. “With the amount of personal information being exchanged at tax time, it is a prime opportunity for fraudsters,” Mr Whyte said. “Highly organised crime networks use a range of methods to steal personal information in order to commit refund fraud.” In 2014-15, 32,110 cases of identity theft were reported to the ATO. Of these, 22,200 were reported during the peak processing months from July to November. Over the same period, 677 incidents of identity crime relating to refund fraud were dealt with by the ATO. Mr Whyte said there are a number of ways Australians can protect themselves against identity theft and refund fraud. It can be as easy as putting a padlock on a letter box or ensuring computers have the latest software and security updates. “My number one tip is to protect your tax file number by deleting or destroying any record of it from documents before throwing them away. “When you contact us or submit a form, we use your TFN to identify you. Fraudsters try to steal TFNs and other personal information so that they can lodge tax returns and other tax forms. “And just like you would with online banking, you should never share your passwords with anyone and ensure you change them regularly,” Mr

BUSINESS SOUTH-EAST
Thumbs up for Bubbles and balloons online beauty By CAM LUCADOU-WELLS IT’S a bit of a toss-up what is worse - getting a root canal or plunging into a shark tank. Malvern entrepreneur Andrea Popovic barely raised a sweat facing a ‘shark tank’ well, actually pitching her idea to a panel of business people - at the completion of a CaseyCardinia tech-innovation forum on 2 August. Ms Popovic beat a competitive field of students and budding businesspeople with her concept for a portal - or online directory - for booking beauty services across Australia. By chance, she was invited to fill a vacancy in the competition at the last minute. She won a work space at the recently-opened Casey Cardinia Business Hub, with personalised mentoring, training and networking opportunities for 12 months. Already selling taekwondo gear in a home-based online business, Ms Popovic and her sister Tijuana were hoping to launch the portal online and as a phone app by October. She said the directory would help drive internet traffic to beauty specialists, many

There are many online booking services like Uber and Airbnb. “A lot of people book for services online and related to the idea.” Ms Popovic found the shark tank judges Mary Agius, Ray Keefe, Simon Maselli and Ron Raju were in a feeding frenzy for the idea. “It’s really good to get a fresh perspective from someone you can trust and getting a fresh set of ideas,” Ms Popovic said.
“They said, I was actually thinking too small by using just bootstrap funding. They said I could go further and seek a sponsor.” One of the judges also suggested he could find an appbuilder for Ms Popovic at half her budgeted expectation. Casey mayor Sam Aziz was not deterred that the prize went to a non-Casey resident. He said Casey’s “aggressive strategy” was to both attract business into the municipality as well as develop local talent. Both aims created local jobs, he said.
IT'S not too late to book a place at this month's Casey Cardinia Region Women's Lunch. Founder of RedBalloon, Naomi Simson, will speak about the power of persistence at the lunch which is being held as part of Victoria’s annual Small Business Festival, which runs state-wide from 1-31 August. The lunch will provide the region’s business women with the opportunity to network while enjoying a two-course lunch, along with a glass of bubbly on arrival. Ms Simson is well known from her role in channel 10s Shark Tank as the Red Shark and the best-selling author of Live What You Love. She has many labels: entrepreneur, author, blogger and innovator. As an entrepreneur, she founded one of Australia’s tech success stories, RedBalloon, in 2001. Through persistence and good business planning redballoon.com. au has now served more than 3 million customers. Ms Simson has received a number of high profile awards including the 2008 National Telstra Business Women’s Awards for Innovation and in 2011 she won the Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year Industry category. The lunch will be held on Friday 26 August from 11.30am-2pm at the Cardinia Cultural Centre. Tickets are $90 including a glass of bubbly upon arrival and a two-course lunch. Contact Raylene Wilson on 9705 5200 or rewilson@casey.vic. gov.au.

FEDERATION University Australia is excited to welcome prospective students and their families to its Ballarat and Gippsland campuses for the 2016 Open Day on Sunday 28 August. At FedUni students learn practical, hands-on skills as part of a community, not just a university. The Ballarat and Gippsland campuses will be open from 10am to 3pm on the Sunday. Visitors will be able to explore the wide range of programs at Discovery Points at each campus. Prospective students will be able to meet and speak with staff and current students, attend informative program information sessions, collect detailed course and student services and
support information, explore facilities and FedUni Living accommodation, and find out how to apply for courses. An open evening for students, parents and teachers also will be held on Wednesday 17 August from 4-8pm at the new Berwick campus. The university will deliver some programs there from 2017. “On behalf of the university I am pleased to welcome students and their families to FedUni for our 2016 Open Day,” vice-chancellor professor David Battersby said. “You will find university staff and student ambassadors at hand who will readily help with any questions or wishes you may have.”
Exclusive to the Mt Helen Campus this year will be the new Try A Trade Alley which lets visitors get their hands dirty and try out the university’s huge range of trade programs. Study options include building, construction, hair and beauty, bakery, carpentry, plumbing, robotics and mechatronics. In Gippsland visitors will be able to explore visual art and design galleries and demonstrations, media power (design an advert), criminal justice, education classroom activities, nursing skills survivor challenge, outdoor and environmental educations activities, and business skills activities. For further information the university can be contacted on 1800 FED UNI (1800 333 864) or at info@federation.edu.au.

Two-way vegie project
Building permits
BRIDGING the divide between research and practice was the theme of the day during the launch of a new Growing Vegetable Businesses project. Growing Vegetable Businesses is one of 10 projects nationally commissioned by Horticulture Innovation Australia and delivered as part of the National Vegetable Extension Network, using the vegetable industry levy and matched funds from the Australian Government. The program involves industry specialists working with vegetable growers to improve access and adoption of industry research and development to benefit profitability. Anne-Maree Boland from RM Consulting Group is leading the delivery of the project in the Northern, Western and South-Eastern regions of Victoria. She said the extension project was tailored to a regional approach for growers. “The project is about addressing the issues that are important to growers in the region," Ms Boland said. “A big part of the project is two way, hearing from the growers what the issues are and for us to work out how to get the best answers to address those issues." The launch was hosted by Clyde celery grower Adam Schreurs. “I was happy to put my hand up to host a demonstration site here on the farm. For me as a grower, it’s best to be at the forefront of the latest research and having it right here on my doorstep has helped with that.” When asked about the shared lessons he had picked up from other growers, Adam noted the practicality of the webinar series and other resources through previous RMCG delivered projects. “I got on board with the webinars late in the piece, but the ones I’ve listened to have been great. I put my head-
THE City of Casey has introduced a new permit for anyone planning to undertake building or demolition works in the region. Residents will now have to apply for an ‘Asset Protection Permit’ prior to starting works. The council introduced the new local law in August, saying the new regulation will help to protect community infrastructure from damage. Casey mayor Sam Aziz said the local law was introduced to protect community assets such as footpaths, roads, nature strips, stormwater drains and vegetation from damage due to private building works. “Prior to commencing building or demolition work, an owner, builder or appointed contractor must apply for an Asset Protection Permit and pay a minimum security bond of $1000. “If damage happens to occur, council can now more easily recover the costs of repair from permit holders, rather than ratepayers bearing the costs,” Cr Aziz said. Building works that might require a permit include construction of a dwelling, unit, garage, pool house, building, demolition or removal of a structure, extension or alterations to a dwelling, construction of a swimming pool or spa, commercial or industrial development and structural or civil works. Anyone who is planning on undertaking building work in Casey is encouraged to visit www.casey. vic.gov.au/assetprotectionpermit The permit process has been made fully digital through the councils ‘Digital Casey Strategy’.
Clyde celery grower Adam Schreurs. phones in and listen to them on the drive to the other farm." The launch of the project brought together more than 40 growers and industry associates to learn about the new Growing Vegetable Businesses project as well as other recent developments in the industry. Mathew Elliot from the Melbourne Market Authority updated the audience
on the relocation of the facility from West Melbourne to Epping. Future plans include a food and beverage hub and opportunities for business incubation on site to foster improved grower participation in the supply chain through services such as sterilisation for export. Additionally, the buzz around drones and other Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs)was addressed by Andrew No-
lan from Digital Falcon sharing the latest developments in remote sensing of crops. Mr Nolan highlighted the advancement in imagery analysis to assess patterns and trends in crops, such as water stresses and disease pressure. He said the viticulture industry was championing developments in this area, and there were a lot of shared lessons for vegetables.

Blockbuster double-header By RUSSELL BENNETT THERE are regular season double headers, and there are playoff double headers. Anyone who heads along to ‘The Fortress’ this Saturday - the home of Casey basketball - will experience the difference first-hand. The stars have aligned for the Cavs to host a Big V men’s and women’s double-header at the Casey Indoor Leisure Centre on Berwick-Cranbourne Road in Cranbourne after Stewart Baird’s Division 1 men’s side went down by nine points to Warrnambool on the weekend. With the Division 2 women’s team finishing on top the ladder, it won straight through to the first semi-final against Blackburn this Saturday from 6pm. Baird’s men’s side will follow from 8pm in the second semi-final against Shepparton. “In some ways, our spectators will be happy that it’s panned out this way,” Baird said with a laugh, referring to the blockbuster double-header. He said his side threw everything at Warrnambool in its 98-89 defeat, but still could have executed better. He said the Cavs were tentative early on both ends of the floor on Saturday night, with the third quarter in particular also posing a real challenge for the group. The Cavs started slow and were outscored 28-14 in the first. The home side shot a whopping 61 per cent from the floor, while the Cavs could only manage 22.
Casey struggled to stop Warrnambool in the third as well, with the home side piling on 30 points for the quarter, but with only 1:40 in the contest, there was only two points in it. If the Cavs meet Warrnambool again in the playoffs, it’ll be in the grand final, and Baird is confident should that match-up eventuate. “It was exactly the game I imagined, and it was played in the manner I thought it would be,” he said of Saturday night’s contest. “I think we probably gained more than they did in terms of what we learned from the game.” Baird said his quarter-time message to his side was simply to remain positive. “I said to the boys to shoot it if they have a shot they like, but if you have to hesitate the moment’s gone,” he said. There were plenty of promising signs from the Cavs on the weekend. They had more open looks from the field, and they also played an impressive team defensive game on Warrnambool star Nathan Sobey. He finished with 32 points, 7 boards and 6 assists but shot just 35 per cent from the field - including 2-10 from beyond the arc. “I couldn’t be happier with Ben Louis and a number of different players on the defensive job they did on (Nathan) Sobey,” he said, reluctant to say too much about Sobey’s game except that “they call it the charity stripe for a reason. “A few calls left a few people scratching their heads, that’s for sure.” Sobey shot 16-16 from the free throw line.
Baird said if his side did face Warrnambool in the grand final, it’d be much better off given the exposure it had to the likes of Sobey on the weekend. But now it’s all about the Shepparton game. “If you can have a traditional rivalry that’s only four years old, that’s what this is,” Baird said, pointing to the history the two teams share at both Division 2 and Division 1 level. “There’s a rivalry built purely on respect. “They’ve been such a stable group for a while now, and it’s always great to be able to play against them. “They’re certainly a very proud club.” Baird said the Cavs would be looking to lock in defensively on star Shepparton guard Matt Bartlett, and the team’s import for this season Reggie Fuller. “We’ll be throwing a few different types of defence at them, which should really make them think,” he said. “Offensively, it’s about playing to our strengths. We should have a bit of a size advantage, so we need to make the most of that in the post.” The Cavs’ Division 2 women’s side has strong recent form against Blackburn, having notched a 24-point win on 30 July. The other game with local significance this Saturday will be at the Mornington Basketball Stadium where the home side hosts the Cavs’ Youth League 2 men’s side.

Scorpions destroy Bombers in blitzkrieg By DAVID NAGEL
Colin Garland drives the Casey Scorpions forward during the first quarter of Saturday night's VFL clash against Essendon. 157678 Pictures: STEWART CHAMBERS
VFL - ROUND 18 BREAK Essendon’s spirit early and then race away for a convincing victory -things went pretty much according to script for Justin Plapp and his Casey Scorpions on Saturday night. The by-product of the ultraimpressive 86-point victory -under lights at Casey Fields- is the Scorps now find themselves perched at the top of the VFL ladder with just three rounds remaining. But Plapp was more impressed with a fierce determination for the contest that set a standard that was too high for the Bombers. “We really focused in on starting well, and we knew our hunger and exuberance for the contest was something we could use to our advantage,” the Scorpions coach said. “They had experienced players like (Matthew) Stokes and (Ryan) Crowley who have reached great heights in the game, played on the biggest stage, and we needed to test their hunger early. We were elated with the way our players performed -we set it up early and really went on with the job.” The Scorps were dominant from the start, but kicked a wasteful 3.5 to 0.1 in the first term before straightening up with a 5.1 to 2.2 second stanza. The radar was dialled in even further with a third-quarter blitz that saw 8.1
to 2.0 sail through the big sticks. But what made this victory even more impressive was the Scorps were missing some of their key players from throughout the season. Full-forward Sam Weideman was busy kicking two goals in his AFL debut for Melbourne, while Cam Pederson was a late withdrawal. Clayton Oliver also received a call-up for the Dees, while the loss of ruckman Jake Spencer loomed as the biggest inconvenience of all. But up stepped Oscar McInerney. The 204-centimetre ruckman from Montrose has massive potential, and he used the bright lights of Casey Fields to put a spotlight on his talents. He not only filled Spencer’s shoes, but he’s also made things awfully difficult for Plapp at the selection table this week. If the Scorps’ team-first mentality needs further reinforcing, it should come with the fact that 12 players scored goals on the weekend. Jay Kennedy-Harris kicked four, Liam Hulett three, while regarded firstgamer Ben Ainsworth joined Tim Smith and a rampant Christian Salem with two goals apiece. Kennedy-Harris, Salem and McInerney were the standouts, while Jack Grimes and in-form defenders Jack Hutchins and Declan Keilty were other solid four-quarter contributors. Plapp said that one of his main aims when he joined the Scorpions
Casey Scorpions coach Justin Plapp got what he asked for - a fast start against Essendon at Casey Fields. 157678 was slowly coming to fruition. “Probably the number one priority was bringing some respect back to this footy club,” he said. “Those respect levels haven’t been great in recent times, but we’re creating a winning culture in a very competitive environment.” You’d have to say that things are going pretty much according to script! Ladder: Casey 48, Williamstown 48, Collingwood 48, Sandringham 40, Port Melbourne 40, Footscray 40, Geelong 36, Essendon 28 - Box Hill 24, Richmond 24, Werribee 24, Northern 24, Coburg 20, Frankston 8, North Ballarat 8.

‘Rays at top of TAC Cup By DAVID NAGEL SITTING at the peak of the TAC Cup landscape would make it pretty easy for the Dandenong Stingrays to solely focus its attention on breaking a 25-yearold premiership drought. Stingrays coach Craig Black is well aware that his club has an empty space in its trophy cabinet, but insists that’s not what it’s all about in the TAC Cup. “Look, if we made it to grand final day, we’d be trying to win, don’t worry about that, but it’s sort of a secondary consideration at TAC Cup level,” Black said. “We’ve been very successful in terms of getting our players drafted, we had six drafted into the AFL last year, and that’s the sign that our program is working. “There’s a lot of water to go under the bridge before we get to that point (grand final) anyway, but if the players are improving then team success will be a by-product of that.” The Stingrays have lost three games this season and will get the chance for revenge with their final two games against Murray and Geelong - two of their early season conquerors. Black said that despite sitting on top, his team still had a lot of
Drought-breaker? Coach Craig Black has the Dandenong Stingrays sitting on top of the TAC Cup ladder. 154857 Picture: JARROD POTTER work to do. “We’re going along nicely, but we’ve got a very tough run home; and if we drop both games, and North Ballarat win both, we could drop out of the top four, so it’s important we keep on winning,” he said. “At this time of year, it’s important to have something to play for.” One of the great challenges that confront coaches at this level is getting the future stars of the game to put personal gain aside and to work together as a unit. Personal glory versus team success - Black says it’s always
a constant challenge. “That’s always a balancing act, and we encourage the players to play with attacking flair but make sure it’s done within the team structures,” Black said. “There’s plenty of exposure at this level, there’s nowhere to hide, so if a player is being selfish it will stand out pretty quickly. We keep the players accountable and more importantly they hold each other to account.” The Stingrays take on Murray at Shepley Oval this Saturday at 2pm.

YEAR 9 Beaconhills College teacher Gemma Maini was the first woman to cross the finish line at this year’s Run Melbourne Marathon. Miss Maini ran the full 10km course in the marathon with an overall time of 34 minutes and 54 seconds, beating the next fastest female by almost four and a half minutes. The maths and science teacher beat more than 5000 other competitors to finish fifth in the overall marathon results. Miss Maini said this was the first time she had won a major fun run but not the first time she had competed in large-scale running events. “My greatest running achievement to date would be making the Australian team ... a feat I am hoping to re-achieve early next year,” she said. In 2015, Miss Maini was one of Australia’s six female athletes at the World Cross Country Championships in China. While not a stranger to tough running competition, Miss Maini said the blind competition in the Run Melbourne was something completely different. “Going into the race, I just wanted to focus on my own pace and keep it an even tempo throughout, which I did achieve,” she said. Her next event is the Cross Country National Championships held in Canberra this month, then the Melbourne Marathon 10km in October.

Eagles’ wings get clipped By DAVID NAGEL VFL WOMEN - ROUND 16 SUSTAINING its best football for four quarters is the big challenge for Cranbourne after the Eagles wasted a flying start to go down to Seaford by 23 points at Casey Fields on Saturday. Coach Kris Smith had built this one up as a “mini grand final”- and the Eagles played a premiership brand of football in the first term. From the moment Hayley Wildes broke clear with the first centre clearance of the match, the Eagles looked the better side. They dominated possession and hurt the Tigers where it hurts most -on the scoreboard- kicking out to a 21-point lead. Kirsten McLeod kicked the first two goals of the match, Bianca Jakobsson the next and the Eagles had opened up a three-goal lead. The dangerous Danielle Lawrence then returned fire for the Tigers, before the Eagles continued their charge. Wildes converted after a handball from Shayla Marsh, and then Michaela Manning scrambled one through from the goal square to open up that 21-point advantage. Katelyn Cox then capitalised on some sloppy defensive work from the Eagles to cut the margin to 15 points at the first break. No 62 6 7 30 18 10 56 49 1 25 43 17 38 54 35 28 46 2 39 29 4 67

But that looked to be a minor hiccup as McLeod kicked truly at the start of the second term. The Eagles were playing great football; Courtney Clarkson and Cara Moody were winning the ruck duels, while Wildes, Jakobsson and Corrine Cullis were having a massive influence around the ground. It was hard to imagine at the time, but the Eagles would kick just one more goal for the match as the Tigers took command. Goals to Cox and Emma Hall narrowed the margin to 10, before Hall marked strongly to bring the Tigers to within a kick. Amazingly, considering Cranbourne’s dominance, Cox put Seaford four-points up at half time with a clever right-foot snap at the 20-minute mark of the second term. The third term was an arm wrestle. Kim Ebb marked a great pass from Sarah Hosking at the five-minute mark to kick the Tiges out to an 11-point lead, before McLeod cut the margin to five after some great ball movement from Jakobsson. But that was the end of the penny section for the Eagles. Trailing by just four points at the final exchange, the Eagles clawed for 10 minutes, but then slowed to a walk as the Tigers piled on 3.2 to 0.1 in the last 15 minutes of play.

Hosking was an absolute standout best player on the ground for the Tigers.

Watching the stats WHAT else do you do when you’re a sports journalist and have a couple of spare hours up your sleeve? You watch footy, that’s what! This week we take a close look at the player statistics of Narre Warren during its 16.18(114) to 4.6(30) victory over Officer at Starling Road on Saturday. Magpies’ coach Heath Black reacted savagely to his side’s Round 15 loss to Doveton, making seven changes at the selection table. In came Mitch Dempster, Jarrod Dalton, Cory Machaya, Jack Wheeler and Nathan Foote, while Tim Mashado and Troy Mengler came in for their first taste of the big time. The seven omissions were all dropped to the twos, with Chris Collins, Andrew Hunter, Grant Lofthouse, Tait Sabec, Nathan Reid, Hayden Stagg and Chris Johnson all paying the price for the previous week’s performance. The Magpies’ pressure gradually wore the Kangaroos down on the weekend, having 139 possessions in the first half and a whopping 210 after half-time.

Clash for third spot hots up By DAVID NAGEL WE WILL know a lot more about the premiership hopes of Hampton Park and Doveton this week when the Doves make the short trip down the South Gippsland Highway to Robert Booth Reserve. The winner will almost certainly claim third place on the ladder and a double chance, while the loser will head into dangerous territory against the emerging Cranbourne in the elimination final. There’s a lot to play for in this one. Doveton rested its aching legs on the weekend, while the Redbacks warmed up for their do-or-die clash with an impressive 14-goal, 55-41, victory over Tooradin. The Redbacks came out like a shot out of a gun, scoring at a rapid rate, with Brooke Kiely (goal shooter) and Birgitta Nemaric (goal
attack) unstoppable up front. Kiely scored 29, while Nemaric’s contribution far outweighed her 23 goals on the scoresheet. Monalisa Groom (centre) was superb for four quarters for the winners, while Alex Duff (GS), Kelly Haynes (GA) and Emma Iacovou (wing attack) stood tall in a winning last quarter for the Gulls. Cranbourne matches up very well against Beaconsfield and pushed the second-placed side all the way, losing 43-40, in the battle of the Eagles at Holm Park Reserve on Saturday. Beaconsfield took a narrow advantage in the first quarter and -despite being pushed- never surrendered that lead throughout the course of the afternoon. Cranbourne has shown it can mix it with the big guns in the competition over the last fortnight and will learn a valuable lesson from this one - be switched on from the start!
Beacy was well served by its reliable strike force of Bianca Sanzaro (GS) and Andi Dickson (GA), while Kaela Hughes (goal defence/centre) transformed from a frugal defender in the first quarter to an attacking mid-courter in the second. Danni Cameron (goal keeper) was the rock in defence, sharing the circle with Hughes and Gabby Stinear (GD) when things were at their most intense. Cranbourne continues to impress, and coach Donna Wilson will be hoping that a tough run home -against Narre Warren and Hampton Park- won’t deny her girls a place in the September action. It becomes an extended finals series for Cranny who have been super-impressive in recent times. The defensive partnership of Hayley Galpin (GK) and Tara Cecil (GD) continues to grow, while Nat Sparks (WA), Steph Ryan (WD) and
Mel Perrins (C) are providing Tegan Stahl (GS) and Alanah Hardy (GA) with plenty of scoring opportunities up front. Beaconsfield can do Cranbourne a massive favour this week -defeat Tooradin, and Cranny will earn a finals berth. In other games, Tayla Shannon sparked Narre Warren into action after a tougher-than-expected first half against a gallant ROC. The Magpies led 31-25 at half time, but found their compass after the break to win running away in the end. And Berwick must wish it could play Pakenham every weekend, making it two from two over the Lions this season with a 45-40 victory at Toomuc Reserve. The Wickers will be confident, and keen to add another notch to their belts when they host ROC this week at Edwin Flack Reserve.
Wickers answer skipper’s appeal By DAVID NAGEL REIGNING premier Berwick has sent out a timely reminder that its best football is still the benchmark of the South East Football Netball League with an emotioncharged 59-point victory over Pakenham at Toomuc Reserve. The Wickers fed off an ‘usagainst-them’ mentality after their co-captain Madi Andrews was suspended for four weeks last Wednesday. The Wickers appealed the decision to the AFL Victoria Country Appeals Board on Friday, with Andrews exonerated and freed to play the next day and for the remainder of the season. Berwick coach Rhys Nisbet said the trials and tribulations of Andrews had inspired his team to one of its best performances of the season. “It was sensational, that was some of the best footy we’ve played all year,” Nisbet enthused. “We needed something to get our group going, and maybe this was the thing that needed to happen to get us going. Our intensity was right up from the first bounce, and that’s our barometer, our starts, and that’s as good a start as we’ve had in a fair while.” Berwick really did hit the ground running, with the likes of Lucas Jellyman-Turner and Luke Sheppard scorching the turf with their hard running patterns. Kurt Batt, Tim Gunn, Luke Nelson, Mitch Johnson, Ben Kearns and Mark Weekes applied terrific pressure in the front half, causing the Lions to cough the ball up with monotonous regularity. The Wickers were at their most dominant in the first stanza, opening up a 23-point lead and were never headed. Mitch Johnson finished with five, Kearns four, while Jo West, Michael Johnson and Luke Sheppard were brilliant in defence. Cranbourne still has a ques-
tion mark hanging over its head despite a grinding 17-point victory over Beaconsfield in the battle of the Eagles at Holm Park Road. The biggest question heading in was how Cranny would cover the loss of champion full-forward Marc Holt -who has a broken leg- and the answer was less than convincing. Cranbourne relied on a range of mid-sized types, with Luke Bee-Hugo and Ryan Jones kicking two, while speedy-types like Dylan Cavalot, Aaron Bower and Anthony Vella used the wide expanse of Holm Park to full advantage. Beaconsfield ruckman Scott Meyer was simply superb, while full-forward Beau Dowler made the most of his opportunities to finish the day with three. Tooradin survived a scare against Hampton Park, with the Seagulls rallying well after half time for a 35-point victory at Robert Booth Reserve. The Redbacks should have buried the Seagulls in the first quarter, but kicked 4.7 to 2.0 to waste a plethora of opportunity. The Redbacks kicked the first two goals of the third term, kicking out to a nine-point lead, before the Seagulls made their move. The visitors kicked 7.10 to 1.2 from that point forward to record just their third victory for the season. Andrew Dean kicked three for the winners, while Adam Galea and Troy Dolan were terrific four-quarter contributors. Kane White held firm for the Redbacks down back. And finally Narre Warren made light work of Officer with an 84-point drubbing at Starling Road. Jarrod Dalton kicked five for the Magpies while hard-ball extractors Trent Cody and Dylan Quirk went diligently about their work. Doveton had the bye.

�� Reviews and news…
As cute as a button By EWAN KENNEDY THE Kia Picanto is a small city car that’s loaded with standard equipment and comes in at a very attractive price of just $14,990. That’s for a five-door car with automatic transmission and is driveaway. This market segment isn’t strong in Australia at present, which is a shame as these small economy cars are really all that many people need. It’s early days yet - the little Kia Picanto has only been on sale here since April - and is now neck-and-neck with the previously all-conquering Mitsubishi Mirage in the sales race. Tall, cheeky styling makes a statement in the new Kia Picanto. It has big headlights, the Kia ‘Tiger’ nose design and mesh grilles. The sculpted side features a rising character line with the rear fringed by what Kia calls ‘inverted comma’ taillights. There’s an attractive chrome trim finish on the bottom of the dashboard and lower part of the steering wheel. Our review Picanto came in a daffodil yellow colour which was always simple to spot in carparks crammed with an endless array of boring grey coloured vehicles. Kia Picanto is powered by a 1.0-litre three-cylinder engine in some markets, but only a 1.2-litre four-cylinder
is imported to Australia. With only 64 kilowatts of power and 123 Newton metres of torque it’s no ball of fire. However, this diminutive 3.6-metre long hatch weighs in at a lightweight 960 kilograms. Having only four forward ratios in the automatic can be a drawback in some country driving, but is generally fine around town. Infotainment features are limited to the Bluetooth phone and audio streaming with information displayed on a small red-on-back screen. USB and Aux sockets are recessed above a phone-sized space. It’s not easy to make small cars safe because of the limited room for building in crumple zones and side intrusion bars. But the Kia engineers have done well and Picanto comes to us with a five-star ANCAP rating. It has six airbags, ABS brakes with electronic brake distribution and brake assist, stability and traction control, daytime running lights, outer rear seat IsoFix child-seat anchorage points, and emergency-stop signal. There is no reversing camera but rear parking sensors are standard. The front seats are comfortable enough but as the car has no sporting pretensions they don’t really offer much in the way of side support.
Model range Picanto Si 1.2-litre five-door hatch: $14,990 (automatic).
Tall, cheeky styling makes a statement in the new Kia Picanto. The back seat can cope with adults if the folks in the front are willing to give up a bit of legroom but to Australian minds it’s not really a four-seater. Boot space at 200 litres is good for this class, with good depth and the ability to carry plenty of shopping or a duo or trio of cabin bags. Folding down the 60/40 seatbacks increases luggage space to 605 litres. The Picanto is clearly a car aimed at singles, couples and young families, which is the norm in this class. It fulfils those duties well. The major controls are large and well-placed. The steering wheel is height adjustable only, something that didn’t cause us any hassles, but try for yourself during your private road test
out of a Kia dealership. Around town the little Picanto is nimble in traffic and has good visibility to let you keep track of the traffic all round. It’s easy to park, again due to the excellent visibility and also to the fact that there isn’t a lot of car in the first place. Out of town it’s happy to motor at motorway speeds, though the engine is working at 3400rpm on 110km/h motorways. Hills do cause it problems but locking out fourth gear gets it to the top without stressing the engine. Around town fuel use is in the seven to eight litres per 100 kilometres range
which is about average for this class. On the open road there’s no trouble getting it down into the fives. Comfort is well sorted and while you’re never going to mistake the interior for that of a midsize upmarket car it’s certainly in the topline in its class. Likewise, noise and vibration are well isolated. Handling is good without being in any way aimed at the keen driver. It’s a little vague in the central position of the steering and the car is inclined to move about a bit in crosswinds or when large trucks pass in the other direction. The Kia Picanto is a cheerful little car with a lot of style. It’s pleasant to drive, works well around town and isn’t too out of place in the country. Its low driveaway price is certainly appealing as is the extremely long seven-year warranty.

Above: The quattro, with its added grip and lower profile tyres, can produce the sort of driving that keen punters love. Right: Audi A4 Avant’s rear has been neatly integrated into the front shape and profile.
Audi Avant stays sharp By EWAN KENNEDY AUDI station wagons, which they call Avants, are huge in Europe and particularly in their home market of Germany. Avants are easy to spot, just drive on an autobahn at high speed, but keep out of the fast lane, pretty soon one will pass you at 200+ kmh. It will probably be black and a sales rep of some sort will be at the steering wheel in a hurry to their next appointment. Sounds like heaven? It is, but sadly not in Australia. The driving, that is. The latest A4 Avant joined the sedan a couple of months ago. It’s slightly longer and wider than the old Avant and sits on a longer wheelbase. Most of the extra size has gone into significantly increasing legroom in the rear, although there’s also more elbowroom and headroom. Audi Avant 2WD model starts with a recommended list price of $63,900, the quattro all-wheel-drive $72,900. That’s $3000 over the cost of the equivalent sedans. Styling follows the latest successful Audi theme of sharp lines and neat geometric angles. The wagon’s rear has been neatly integrated into the front shape and profile. Overall, this certainly doesn’t scream out that it’s a station wagon. The interior features Audi’s usual immaculate style and quality of finish. This is an upmarket stylish place in which to travel. Audi’s new ‘virtual cockpit’ instrument layout is easy to use and can be tailored by the driver to show the most important displays according to different driving situations. Two drivetrains are offered, both based around a 2.0-litre turbo-petrol engine and a seven-speed Audi dual-clutch automatic, tagged S-tronic. The A4 front-driver develops 140 kW of power, and 320 Nm of torque from 1450 to 4200 rpm. In the Avant quattro allwheel-drive the engine has a sportier state of tune to bring it up to 185 kW, with 370 Nm between 1600 and 4500. Our test
Model range A4 Avant 2.0 TFSI 140kW petrol five-door wagon: $63,900 (automatic). A4 Avant 2.0 TFSI quattro 185kW petrol fivedoor wagon: $72,900 (automatic).
vehicle was a quattro. Audi’s MMI infotainment system is one of the most advanced currently on the market. It is controlled through an easy to see 8.3-inch screen. It has a DVD player, which can also operate through optional rear-seat tablet screen. There’s up to10Gb of music storage. It receives live traffic reports and five free map updates are in included in the A4’s price. Australasian NCAP has rated the Audi A4 Avant as a fivestar vehicle. In the cargo area there are safety rails on the floor and several straps to let you secure items in various ways. The adjustable cargo cover looks to be able to take a fair bit of punishment in crashes. The front seats are comfortable, though some may find them a little narrower than they like. The rears are noticeably more spacious than before, with legroom for full-sized adults. Two will be more comfortable than three in the back seat. The luggage area has a volume of 505 litres with the rear seat backs in place, and 1510 litres with the 40/20/40 split-fold backrests down. They don’t fold completely flat but stop an irritating few degrees above where we would like them to be. The sleek slope of the rear robs the wagon of some carrying ability as large boxy items won’t fit. The turbo-petrol TFSI engine seems to have endless amounts of torque. There’s some minor lag before you get the full benefit of this grunt, but we have felt worse. Driving modes are Normal and Sport. Changes to the engine and transmission characteristics are quite obvious. Sport has the A4 down a gear
or two most of the time, which chew up fuel. However, the gear selector is extremely easy to use so you can juggle performance needs in a moment. Smoothness and quietness are very good, all the more so when you consider the added difficulty of designing a station wagon body. These Audis make excellent long distance cruisers. Handling is neutral until the cars are pushed really hard, when the front-driver exhibits some safe understeer. The quattro, with its added grip and lower profile tyres, can produce the sort of driving that keen punters love. The new high-tech Audi headlight system darkens the LED lights only in the area where it would dazzle other drivers, either in front or ahead. The rest of the lights remain on high beam giving a much broader view. It works extremely well in country areas, providing almost the feeling of having daylight in front. However, these Audi lights are whiter and brighter than conventional ones and may give the impression they are on high beam. We found it best to use conventional low beam around town and only switch to the intelligent LED system on the open road. Audi’s new A4 Avant quattro wagon gives sporting performance allied with added carrying ability and it looks good too, definitely one to add to your list of possibilities if you don’t want the bulk of an SUV. Note that the next cab off the Audi A4 rank is the Allroad version due early September. It’s a neat cross between the standard wagon tested here and an SUV. For more information contact Audi Barry Bourke, 755 Princes Highway, Berwick. Phone 9707 2222.
