Discounts galore By Alana Mitchelson Cheap As Chips will soon be moving in to the old Pakenham IGA site on the corner of Main Street and Drake Place, creating more than 20 local jobs. Facey Industrial Commercial partner Matt O’Dea told the Gazette the site had received “strong” inquiries from national companies before a 10-year lease was granted to the South Australian-based discount variety store. Cheap As Chips is due to commence operation in late March at its new Pakenham site. The company has 38 stores throughout Victoria, South Australia and New South Wales and plans to double its 15 Victorian stores by 2020. Cheap As Chips chief managing director Shane Radbone said the company was focused on expanding throughout regional Victoria, having most recently opened a new store in Ballarat in December. Refurbishment works, including new flooring, is planned over the next two months. “We’re very excited to be coming to Pakenham. We’re opening the store up a bit, so it will be a bit brighter,” Mr Radbone said. “The Ballarat opening has been our most successful in our company’s history. I think our brand is starting to make a name for itself and we’ve found a niche market for a discount variety store with a great range of quality products and good customer service. “We saw an opportunity in Pakenham for a very good discount store. It’s a great location with good visibility and parking options for customers.” He said the store had about 9000 products ranging from arts and craft, to furnishings, confectionery, hardware, garden and party supplies, beauty products, homewares, stationery, toys, motoring products, pet accessories and travel goods. Mr Radbone said products were “cheap in price, not in quality” with specials planned for the opening week in early April, exclusive to the Pakenham store.

Our rich community By Alana Mitchelson and Victoria Stone-Meadows

New branch opening in Pakenham. Our new Pakenham branch has all the experience needed to offer the right products, support and design assistance for all your construction projects. We also understand that local knowledge and local supply is important to you for keeping your projects on budget and on schedule.

The many and varied people that make up Cardinia shire’s multicultural society came together on Australia Day for a day of celebration and national pride. Events took place across the shire with the largest crowds swarming to the Cardinia Cultural Centre in Pakenham for the 2017 Cardinia Shire Australia Day awards presentation and citizenship ceremony. Longest serving chairperson of the Victorian Multicultural Commission and Australia Day Ambassador to Pakenham George Lekakis AO addressed the crowd before the awards were announced. Wayne Collins was named this year’s Cardinia Citizen of the Year. Mr Collins, who founded the Emerald Centre for Youth and Outreach (ECHO) more than 30 years ago, has dedicated himself to improving the lives of others through developing youth programs, effective

disaster relief support services and programs that are designed to strengthen family life. Mr Collins volunteers seven days a week and is a regular speaker at emergency planning and resilience forums. Cardinia Relay for Life took out the Community Event of the Year award for its continued support, engagement, and funding. Since 2013, the events have raised more than $315,000 towards Cancer Council research, prevention and support services which benefits cancer patients across the state including the 300 plus Cardinia shire residents who are diagnosed with cancer each year. Michael Allery was named Senior Citizen of the Year while the Young Citizen of the Year award recognised 16-year-old Emily Bloxidge. Cardinia shire Mayor Brett Owen delivered a passionate and tearful speech about his family’s history in coming to Australia and finding a life that has bought him great pride and happiness.

He congratulated the winners and nominees, thanking them for their many contributions and ongoing commitment to Cardinia communities. “We live in the lucky country, and indeed this is true for Cardinia shire. “It takes people of all ages and backgrounds to bring the diverse wealth of knowledge, experience and enthusiasm that makes our community such a welcoming and wonderful place to live and work,” Cr Owen said. “Certainly, our Australia Day award nominees have all made invaluable contributions to our community. “The Australia Day awards each year are just one way we can all gather to recognise their efforts and thank them for their commitment.” The winners were presented with their awards at the free Australia Day ceremony and citizenship event at the Cardinia Cultural Centre. Cr Owen also welcomed 97 new Australian citizens living in Cardinia shire.

Graeme Bevis has concerns the increased tolls cost on CityLink will spell the end of his freight business. 164435

Picture: GARY SISSONS

Tolls rise: freight fraught with fear By Victoria Stone-Meadows A truck driver from Narre Warren South is worried that the increase in tolls for heavy commercial vehicles will hurt his bottom line, making his small business less competitive. Graeme Bevis is a tow truck driver who uses CityLink on a daily basis to transport containers and transport machinery into the city. He has been in business for about 14 years, but is concerned the most recent increase in tolls on the CityLink will price himself out of the industry. “I don’t know what I’m going to do,” he said. “I will have to pass it on to my customers, and come 1 April the cost will be more than double, and I’m worried I can’t do it any more after that.” Mr Bevis received a letter from CityLink dated 23 January, informing him that the cost of travelling in heavy commercial vehicles on the toll road will increase from 1.9 times that of a car to 3 times. The daily toll cap of travelling

on CityLink in such a vehicle is currently $11.85 but is set to increase to $26.70 after 1 April. “It is really going to hurt my business,” Mr Bevis said. “Clients will shop around to try to find a cheaper operator, and a lot of people in my industry are not happy about it.” The letter from CityLink informed Mr Bevis that an increase in the cost of tolls will be used to help fund the CityLink Tulla Widening project. The project to widen the Tullamarine Freeway and upgrade intersections and interchanges will cost a total of $1.28 billion. It is jointly funded by the Federal Government, the Victorian State Government and CityLink’s operator Transurban. The letter also states that the new toll prices will bring the cost of traveling on CityLink in line with other toll roads. However, the daily toll cap of travelling in a heavy commercial vehicle on Melbourne’s other major

toll road, EastLink, is $16.01 A Transurban spokesperson said the freight industry had been aware of the coming changes for some time, but added the widening project would improve traffic. “The changes were announced in 2014, and we’ve been working with the freight industry for more than two years so they could be prepared for these changes,” the spokesperson said. “The CityLink Tulla Widening Project will improve productivity for the freight industry.” “The benefits of the project include travel time savings of about 30 minutes on a return trip between the city tunnels and Melbourne Airport, more reliable travel times with a 30 per cent increase in capacity, and a safer road with 20 per cent fewer casualty crashes.” Transurban is contributing around $1 billion towards the $1.28 billion CityLink Tulla Widening project. “Tolls for trucks on other toll road operators are between 2.7 and 3.3 times a car and on many other

roads interstate they are 3.0 times a car,” the spokesperson said. Shadow Roads Minister Ryan Smith said business operators should expect to be hit with increased tolls when major road work operations get underway. “I think people expect to pay tolls on these roads,” he said. “Obviously, the deal struck with Transurban to pay for the Tulla widening did involve those increases of tolls, but I think the business operators who use it should expect the level of disruption to be kept at a minimum.” Brad Battin MP State Member for Gembrook also weighed in on the debate, saying the tolls increase is the fault of the current State Government. “Daniel Andrews’ decision to make local family businesses and truck drivers the losers in Victoria is unfair and outrageous,” he said. “The unjustified increase in tolls and registrations will place pressure on business in Casey and Cardinia, cost local jobs and place the truck driving industry at risk.”

An entire safe has been stolen from a shop in Fountain Gate Shopping Centre in a brazen daylight robbery. Police have been told that a man entered the store inside the shopping centre just before 3pm on Tuesday 10 January. The daring thief is believed to have accessed a storeroom at the back of the Police are seeking a man shop where he believed to have stolen stole an entire a safe from a shop in safe containing Fountain Gate Shopping the cash takings Centre. from the busi- Picture: VICTORIA POLICE ness. The man was caught on CCTV carrying the safe around the shopping centre hidden under a dark coloured jacket. He is of Caucasian appearance with a medium build, short dark hair and a beard and was wearing dark jeans and an open blue, black and white collared shirt. Underneath the shirt was a T-shirt with a skull image on it. Anyone with information is urged to contact Detective Senior Constable Ray Gunton at Casey Crime Investigation Unit on 9705 3114 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Hungry Jack’s raided The store manager of the Hungry Jack’s on South Gippsland Highway in Cranbourne has been threatened by two thieves wielding machetes in the early hours on Monday 30 January. About 4.15am, two men wearing balaclavas used a large brick to smash the front window of the store and unlock the door to gain entry to the building. They then proceeded to jump the counter of the store and threaten the store manager with machetes while he opened the safe for them. The two robbers made away on foot towards Thompsons Road with about $3000 in cash. Police are asking anyone who witnessed the incident to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Gatecrashers again An out-of-control party had to be broken up by police on the weekend when the attendance at the event unexpectedly exploded. Police were called to the address of the houseparty on Inga Court in Berwick about 11pm on Friday 27 January after neighbours made complaints. The complaints included young people fighting in the street, jumping into cars, and numbers at the party reaching 300 people. The host claimed only 150 people were invited via Facebook, but the word about the party had been spread through different friend groups. It took police officers from eight different units, including the K9 unit, about an hour to disperse the crowd.

Teachers to go untested By Cam Lucadou-Wells

n late e p o w o N ays d r u t a S nights &

1224674-LB16-16

About 150 new teachers who have not passed literacy and numeracy tests are able to teach in Victorian government schools this year, Education Minister James Merlino has confirmed. At a ‘back to school’ event with Premier Daniel Andrews at Berwick Primary School on 31 January, Mr Merlino said the teachers were provisionally registered as part of a “transition phase” for the tests introduced last July. Some of the teachers, including those who had failed the tests last year, were unable to sit - or re-sit - the tests due to “medical or family reasons”, Mr Merlino said. As part of the provisional registration, the teachers are given a further six months to pass the test, he said. Each teacher is given three opportunities to sit and pass the test, but all must pass to gain registration for 2018. “This is an important measure of a teacher’s readiness to teach,” Mr Merlino said. “This will all be fixed up within six months, and this year no teacher who doesn’t pass the test will be registered to teach.” At Berwick Primary School, Mr Merlino and Mr Andrews chatted with some of the school’s 153 preps on their first day.

Daniel Andrews meets some of Berwick Primary School's Picture: CAM LUCADOU-WELLS 152 new Preps. 164373 The 1146-strong student population includes four new sets of twins, and is part of the Casey growth corridor of more than 50,000 students. This week, 10 new government schools will open, including three in Casey. The new Casey schools are Barton Primary School in Cranbourne West, Tulliallan Primary School in Cranbourne North and Wilandra Rise Primary School in Clyde North. Mr Merlino said the new schools, as well as 42 more in the “construction pipeline” and more than 1000 school upgrade projects, were part of a $1.8 billion infrastructure spend. The 2017 curriculum includes new subjects in coding, Chinese language and culture,

and respectful relationships. “For the last two years, we have put people first, building the Education State so that every community can access a quality school like this one in Berwick,” Mr Merlino said. Shadow education spokesman Nick Wakeling said the situation made a mockery of Mr Andrews’ promise to turn Victoria into the Education State. Mr Wakeling said the Government should stop pushing “divisive social agendas” such as the Safe Schools program, and focus on basic literacy and numeracy. “How can parents have any faith in their children receiving a quality education when many teachers can’t even read, write and count at a basic level?”

By Victoria Stone-Meadows A woman from Pakenham who lost her son three years ago in tragic circumstances has found comfort and closure from an unlikely source. Bozica Davis, known as Bobo, lost her son Aaron to suicide and was missing him terribly before she connected with psychic medium Dennis Stojkovic who works in Narre Warren. “I have been to a few other readers, mostly they have been tarot card readers rather than mediums without the cards. Dennis has been my first one of those,” she said. “Dennis gave me confirmation of how my son died and it was amazing what I got with Dennis. “He didn’t fix me but gave me comfort that what I believed my son had gone through.” Bobo said she went to Mr Stojkovic trying to find a way to connect with her late son and understand more about what he had been going through. “What was interesting was as I walked in to see him, he said he needed to give me a hug from my son,” she said. “Dennis has also been to my house since and often said my son is there and I believe it myself anyway. “He can help give people comfort and to help them deal with the loss of their loved one.” Mr Stojkovic said he loves what he does and knows that through him people can find comfort and support in connecting with their family members who have passed. “I hear, see and feel. I feel how they passed is the best way to describe it is like trying to describe a dream once you wake up,” he said.

“It’s a good feeling standing up there and connecting with loved ones and passing on messages - it’s fantastic. “I get so much out of it being able to heal the people and I know they get something really profound out of it as well.” Bobo said she would recommend Mr Stojkovic to anyone who wants to connect with a loved one and said the experience is worth a try. “I want for any other mother, sister, or brother who is suffering to have that little bit of comfort,” she said. “It can’t take away the pain, but the comfort I got and what he told me left me walking away with a bit of a lighter heart.”

I have read in the local news that the council has decided to have a People’s Panel. What a joke and a waste of money, nearly $20,000 it will be for sure. The council gets payed to make decisions and if we are not happy we can contact you. Imagine if the state and federal governments started these forums. I have a few more things I am not happy about. Mayor, no more trips to China, it’s a waste of time and money. You are not the Trade Minister or Prime Minister, you are the Mayor of Casey in Australia. As for Susan Serey, why would we need to have relations with Israel when you can do most things on the internet - just another junket. Another thing I’m not happy about is the roundabouts and concrete centre strips which are not painted yellow. Hit one and you will find out the damage it can do to your vehicle, especially at night or when it is raining and hard to see. I say to the people of Casey, don’t just sit on your hands and say nothing or leave it to somebody else. Ring your local councillor, that’s what they are payed for. If you like to know how much councillors spent on their mobile phones or entertainment or other things you have to pay to get it from Freedom of Information. The council holds too many meetings in secret which the State Government took action against last year. So in 2017 contact your councillor and ask questions on how they are spending our money. And just remember the councillors are not politicians. Terry Hornbuckle, Berwick.

Apartments are needed at low prices and investors/foreign investors ought to be kept out of the purchasing. There is need for a control of investment of foreign countries and foreign entities and a register created. All foreign ownership of Australian assets should 60:40, 60 being Australian. The newly constructed apartments should be made available to first home buyers first and after that to others. The Melbourne CBD is awash with homeless people on the streets. Does this not irk our “elected“ self-seeking politicians who do not want to rock the shaky boat of a government which is effete and has done sweet B for the welfare of the poor and needy. Government today is a charade with the opposition and the Government both following a policy of ‘you scratch my back, I’ll scratch yours’. The entire gang in parliament are playing a game of retaining their source of income by not rocking the boat. You can fool some of the people some of the time but not all the people all of the time. Turnbull when the term nears will escalate another double dissolution and blame the system for this dissolution. We the voters are the fools and pawns in this charade. I hope social justice movements of religious organisations will take this responsibility of alerting the Government as to the urgent need for affordable housing.

Roundabout moves I refer to the “open letter to Casey Council from the residents of the Berwick Springs Estate” published in last week’s News. It is full of inaccuracies. At the core of the inaccuracies is that the planning for the area was undertaken by the Victorian Planning Authority which also conducted the public consultation - not by council - and the Minister for Planning created the relevant amendment - not council. Very late in the VPA’s process, VicRoads advised the VPA that the roundabout had to be larger (sensibly, to accommodate a future arterial road upgrade). The VPA made that change and required a larger roundabout, expanding to the south of the current smaller roundabout. That change became apparent when the amendment and associated documentation became available after approval by the minister. In response to recent residents’ concerns, council resolved in November last year to investigate whether the roundabout could be moved further north. Officers are currently preparing a report which will be considered by council on 21 February. Mike Tyler, CEO, City of Casey.

BACK TO SCHOOL 2017 .....

Housing action The housing shortage has reached crisis proportions. The poor are the worst hit. May I suggest that Bill Shorten’s opposition alerts the Government to the need for action, there is plenty of land available. For example, Federation Square was once the eyesore of the CBD but today it is prime property. Similarly there are vast tracks of land over the entire rail track system and at stations. The Government should commandeer these land tracts and hand them over to builders for construction of high-rise apartments with one two and three bedrooms - problem solved. Too easy, why bother. No one cares for the poor. Housing should be given a priority and must be addressed right now. The average home is between $450,000 and $500,000 which is way out of reach of the average earner.

The solution takes a bit of vision and will. Milroy Martyn, Endeavour Hills.

BERWICK

THE PRIZE OF PIERMONT SET in an enviable location, among premium homes in the thriving Bryn Mawr estate, this sensational 35-square family home is flawless in design, exceptional in presentation and bursting with extras. The property is within easy access to high-tiered private and public schools, walking distance to Berwick Market, wellmanicured parklands and walking tracks. A true sense of style and design is displayed throughout this impeccably presented four-bedroom-plus-study home. A clever twist of modern Hampton styling – a striking white kitchen is the stunning centrepiece to the home with seemingly endless bench space, ample storage overlooking vast open-plan living zones. All secondary bedrooms are of generous proportions, the home caters for the family looking for the room to spread out in the best of locations. Living zones total three – a classy front lounge room with cosy gas log fire – and the room is finished with plantation shutters making it the ideal quiet reading space. A more everyday space off the kitchen as well as a theatre/rumpus room will keep the kids happy.

Outside the surprises just keep getting better with a solar heated 10m x 5m Quartzon pool and gas heated spa. Relax in the undercover Balinese-style day bed area where many afternoons will be enjoyed soaking up the summer sun. An outdoor, undercover kitchen with built-in barbecue and alfresco area overlooking the pool and – just to finish off this package - an established vegetable patch for your very own fresh harvest. Extras include air-conditioning, ducted heating, ducted vacuum, alarm system, triple garage with remote control and internal access – and so much more.

Managing your rental property. Investing in real estate is a big step for most people to take. It can be a great way to build wealth and help secure your future and even retirement. Finding the right property to buy can be difficult, however I do suggest you look with an open mind, shop within your budget and take advice from financial advisors and experienced real estate agents. You don’t want to over pay and you don’t want to buy a lemon.

DROUIN

Auction Wednesday 22nd of Feb 6:00pm on site.

Once you have made a purchase, the most important decision you now have to make is, “which agent will I engage to manage the property?” Your property manager is responsible for marketing the home to prospective tenants, selecting your tenant, ensuring the property is maintained to a very high standard, managing rental payments from the tenants dispersing them to you in a timely manner, and ensuring the home is left in the same condition when tenants vacate, as it was when they moved in. As this is one of the biggest investments most people will make in their lives, you do not want to leave this role to chance. A poorly managed property could see it cost you a lot of money along the way and even worse, see the value of your rental reduced when you go to sell, as a result of a poor tenant selection, or a lack of ongoing maintenance checks by an experienced property manager. The moral of the story here is, “you get what you pay for”. The cheapest commission often equals a young in-experienced agent, who may not deliver the best service.

6 ROBERTS COURT DROUIN

If you are looking for a property manager or advice on buying a rental property, please feel free to call our experienced agents on 5940 4044 or call Rod on 0414 960 000.

OPEN SPACES AND FREEWAY ACCESS A DRAWCARD FOR YOUNG COUPLE BUYING an established home was only briefly an option for Kristy Lewis and Jay Stacey. The couple were renting in Chadstone and ready to buy their own house, but it quickly became apparent that building represented better value. “We had a look at established houses but we didn’t want go through an auction, where you don’t know if you’re going to get it, and also you don’t know what you’re getting, so we decided to build, where it’s pretty much a fixed price,” Kirsty said. “It’s just more affordable to build. When you buy established you get something smaller for your money and you have the cost of maintenance.” The pair built a four-bedroom, twoliving area home in Berwick Waters, a development by Frasers Property Australia and Mondous Property Australia. They were the first family to move into their street two-and-a-half years ago, but are now surrounded by neighbours, parks and wetlands. “There’s lots of space and it’s a lovely neighbourhood because everybody here is like-minded,” Kristy said. “The wetlands were a huge drawcard for us, as well as it being more secluded and private than other estates. Some of the estates we looked at were on a main road.” Since moving into Berwick Waters the couple have had their first child, Jack, who turned one in July.

DECADES OF EXPERIENCE

KRISTY LEWIS AND JAY STACEY OF BERWICK. The family are regular visitors to Berwick Waters’ expansive wetlands with its walking paths and bridges, and are particular fans of the area’s playgrounds. “We have a very good park within walking distance with lots of open space,” Kristy said. “There are built-in trampolines for the little kids, a flying fox, sandpit and the usual swings and slides.” Kristy works as Registered Nurse in Doveton, less than 20-minutes

drive from Berwick Waters, while Jay commutes to Moorabbin for work. The pair are among many residents who live and work in the area, as opposed to commuting to the Melbourne CBD. The last census (2011) revealed almost 60 per cent of people who worked within the City of Casey also lived there. The Berwick Waters sales office is at 5 Riverstone Boulevard, Clyde North, with display homes on Flowerbloom Crescent.

IAN McCoy, licensed estate agent, had run his own real estate businesses before joining KR Peters, bringing 40 years of experience to the team. Ian has knowledge in all facets of the industry and has dealt with many investors, retirees, developers, first home buyers and baby boomers achieving their real estate dreams. The enthusiasm Ian has for the industry, assisting vendors achieve premium prices for their property is what real estate is all about. “I am looking forward to the future with KR Peters as the OfficerPakenham area grows rapidly and more people are seeking to settle in the district.” The managing director of KR Peters Wantirna South, Peter Nicolls has had a long association in the Officer-Pakenham area selling land estates such as Arden, Blue Horizons and just recently Savannah. As Officer didn’t have a local office in the town, Peter decided it was time to broaden the service by opening an office to provide professional service in marketing established homes and townhouses and offering professional property management services. In doing so, Ian McCoy was invited to join the family-run business and assist in growing the brand in the Officer Pakenham areas. The office will be well staffed to cater for the high demand from buyers flocking to the area so all we need is local support and we will continue to offer the unique service which has been provided to many suburbs over the last 35 years. Ian and Peter invite one and all to call in to the office and say hello, and are offering fantastic introductory deals for those thinking of selling or having their investment property professionally managed. For further information contact Ian McCoy, 0417 580 839.

Bash honours fallen By Nick Creely For every ball sent down on Australia Day, Sean Mulqueen was paying tribute to an Australian soldier tragically killed in Afghanistan. Sean, a veteran himself of six years in the Australian Army as part of the Royal Australian Engineers, has seen many of his mates sadly killed in combat. But now Sean, back living in Australia with his wife and family, is ensuring that the lives lost will not be forgotten, establishing a special event on Australia Day, which he is hoping will become a marquee fixture for locals in the south-east area for years to come. The 42 Ball Bash, a cricket tournament which is similar to Twenty20 cricket but only has 42 balls per side, recognises and pays tribute to the lives lost in Afghanistan, which currently sits at 42, and the veterans who come home and live with the experiences of war. “The 42 Ball Bash was put together to raise money for the '42 for 42 and Diggers Rest - A Soldiers retreat', with both organisations honouring the soldiers who paid the ultimate sacrifice in

Sean Mulqueen, left, with Nick Foster-Jones from 42 for 42 and Diggers Rest - A Soldiers retreat and Silvio Marinelli. Pictures: SUPPLIED the Afghanistan war, as well as all their families and other returned veterans,” Sean said. “The proceeds from the day will be going to the projects and the programs in helping returned veterans and veteran families. “We used the cricket tournament to be the first fundraiser for the year; it was an idea that came together with

Silvio Marinelli, Joe Hackett and Brad Mcdonald.” The event, which was held at Casey Fields in Cranbourne, was a raging success, with eight clubs taking part Merinda Park, Cardinia, Clyde, Cranbourne, Carlisle Park Vikings, who put in two teams, as well as a 42 for 42 side and a Diggers Rest team. Merinda Park met Cardinia in the

final, with the game coming down to the final three balls. All teams pay a small fee and get to play competitive cricket on turf wickets, with other festivities, such as raffles, a catching tournament with the bowling machine, barbecues and a jumping castle ran by the Cranbourne Cricket Club. “We were very fortunate and lucky

to have Andy Ligt and the Cranbourne Cricket Club support myself and the boys again,” Sean explained. “They have been involved with some other events in helping with returned veterans. “The idea is to get veterans and families to know they can have a bad and sad day and can remember the tough times, however life goes on and it takes one step at a time as well as a little bit of weight of our shoulders. “When we started planning the 42 Ball Bash we wanted to keep the same mindset and get everyone to start having fun. “We can always remember, but it doesn’t need to be sad and sombre moments, we can make it fun and enjoyable. “That’s why the idea of a cricket tournament on Australia Day was thought of. “It was fun, enjoyable and the cricket was the best way to get everyone involved. “ The 42 Ball Bash will be on again next Australia Day, with the hope more people and more teams will get behind the cause.

Star ice hockey player Emma Steele has shot a goal for Australia as her team just took gold in the IIHF World Championships in Spain. Emma, who is in Year 12 at Beaconhills’ Pakenham Campus, was thrilled to make selection for the Under 18 Australian team. This is now the icing on the cake. The team beat Spain 3-1, Mexico 5-0 and Romania in the final 10-0. Emma is one of just a handful of Australian females to make it to the top in ice hockey. The achievement is remarkable because, up until just two years ago, Emma had never even been ice-skating, let alone chased a hockey puck around a rink. After Emma discovered iceskating in 2014, she immediately inquired about playing ice-hockey and was told it would take at least two years to gain enough skills to qualify for a team. It took her just two months. But she had one thing in her favour - good ice-hockey genetics. Her great-grandfather William (Bill) Gash was a player with ‘The Pirates’, an Ice Hockey Victoria team. She still has his ice-hockey stick. Emma also trained hard in the male-dominated sport to make it onto a team, ‘The Bears’. Now with the Melbourne Ice Wolves, she is one of only four females in the entire IHV Bantams’ League and trains at Oakleigh and the O’Brien Group Arena at Docklands.

Doig web traps the Gulls By David Nagel The word genius gets saved for a very select few but Cardinia (0/4) off-spinner Dwayne Doig (5/52 off 37) may well have done enough to join the Einsteins and Newtons of this world after another masterclass against Tooradin (135) on Saturday. OK maybe Doigy’s achievements pale ever so slightly in comparison to those famous names mentioned earlier, but the Bulls champion is building a reputation that is sure to last a lifetime. He has quite simply mastered his craft, and was at it again, bowling the Bulls into an enviable position against the Seagulls at E Gunton Oval. Opening the bowling, his first challenge was to lock horns with Seagulls’ gun Tom Hussey (2). Challenge accepted ... challenge won! Doig then dialled in the radar, challenging the likes of Russ Lehman (31), Cal O’Hare (22) and Josh Lownds (23) who had to take on the Hussey role - but none accepted. The Seagulls slipped into a

run-rate of less than two per over as Doig, Trav Wheller (2/25 off 18) and Kim Bentick (3/18 off 8) took the pace off the ball and bowled beautifully to well-set fields. Fellow premiership aspirants beware -this is the challenge to be confronted, come finals time. “We don’t have that many pace options, so we’re more than happy to throw our spinners the ball, bowl slow from both ends and see where that takes us,” said Bulls’ keeper and president Luke Turner. “Doigy’s just doing what Doigy does, but we need to make sure we’re bowling tight from both ends in the finals.” But this one’s not over yet with the Bulls stumbling with modest run-chases in the past. They made 126 chasing 158 in the 2014 grand final and made the exact same total when chasing a modest 179 the following year.

(179) party after Tom Tyrrell (4/31) and Zac Chaplin (4/37) poured on the pressure at Denhams Road. Tyrrell was at his giantslaying best, removing the four Demons guns this season, Chris O’Hara (41), Mark Cooper (31), Ben Spicer (0) and Jess Mathers (0), while Chaplin cleaned up a very dangerous-looking lower order. Paul Bright (38) and Matt Davey (25)- who was celebrating his 25th season of senior cricketmade valuable contributions for the Dees. In other games, Emerald (172) skipper A.J. Walker (52) knocked in his third half-century for the season as the Bombers gained early momentum against Upper Beaconsfield (5/75), while Pakenham Upper/Toomuc (185) looks set for its second win after a late fightback against Merinda Park (4/24). Brad Senior (92) was magnificent for the Yabbies, as was Nick Kyval (2/4 off 4) who led the late assault. Dylan Cuthbertson (4/52) and Leigh Paterson (2/33) were best for the Cobras.

Audition for new anthem

Help support champ’s family Devon Meadows Football and Netball Club is hosting a fundraiser for the family of the late Beau Miller, a champion footballer and man struck down in his prime. The Support the Millers Family Day will be held at Glover Reserve this Sunday 5 February, running from noon to 4pm, and will raise funds for Beau’s wife Steph, and children Chase and Tripp, left after Beau passed away on July 14 last year after a short battle with aggressive cancer. Tickets to the funfilled day are $25 per adult, $15 per child or $10 for children under two-years-old. Tickets for the day include: Entry in the major raffle and door prize, unlimited kids rides, petting zoo, kids disco and prizes, kids sporting games and a live band and music all day. There will also be face painting, balloon artistry, a silent auction, market stalls, and food, drinks, alcohol and merchandise will all be available for purchase on the day.

Beau Miller was a hugely popular figure in the local sporting landscape. The region can support Beau’s family at the Support the Millers Family Day at Glover Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS Reserve on Sunday. 98445

It has changed its name and is now going to change its song and the Casey Demons are looking for a talented young local to help record its latest piece of history. The Casey Scorpions aligned themselves further with the Melbourne Football Club late last year and took on the name of Casey Demons. Football club president David Dillon said the club was now keen to add a personal touch to its new anthem. “As a part of the rebranding of Casey’s VFL Club, a new anthem that references the Casey Demons is to be recorded and the club wants to include the talented vocalists in Casey,” Dillon said. “Casey boasts some wonderful talent and none more than our vocalists. Casey Demons applauds our performing artists and wish to offer an opportunity that will be a legacy that is long lasting.” Casey Demons are launching a competition to provide an opportunity for a talented Casey resident or residents to audition and the winning finalist then record and launch the new Casey Demons Anthem. To participate, contestants must be Casey residents, be prepared to meet a tight timeline and agree to be promoted via social media, newspaper media and within the Club and VFL networks.

�� Reviews and news…

Built to be big and bold By Alistair Kennedy Renault Koleos is the larger of two SUVs in the French carmaker’s Australian range, the other being the compact Captur. Koleos has been on sale here since 2008 without causing much of a ripple on the sales charts but with hopes that the recent arrival of the second-generation model and some decent marketing will attract more interest. Truly cosmopolitan, Koleos was designed in France, has a Japanesebuilt chassis and is constructed in South Korea. Australia becoming the first country, outside of its native France, to sell it. Koleos is a big, bold vehicle that’s built on the same platform as the well-established Nissan X-Trail. The front features an almost vertical grille with chromed strips that run from the headlights along the full length of the guards and all the way back to the ‘gills’ in the front guards. The centre of the grille features a large Renault diamond with another diamond at the rear between horizontal taillights. Three variants are offered. In ascended order of equipment level and price they are the quirkily named Life, Zen and Intens. The entry-level Life comes only with two-wheel drive; mid-spec Zen

also has the option of all-wheel drive; while the range-topping Intens is only AWD. Koleos Life rides on 17-inch alloy wheels, Zen and Intens each get a different design of 18-inch alloys. There’s just one powertrain, 2.5-litre four-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol engine that generates 126 kW at 6000 revs, and 226 Nm of torque at 4400 rpm. Transmission is by a continuously variable unit. A turbo-diesel engine is expected to be added to the range later in 2017. Entry and exit is comfortable without any excessive ducking down. There’s sufficient leg, knee and headroom for three adults to travel in the back seat comfort. With two rear passengers the central armrest can be folded to provide two inbuilt drink containers. There’s a clever touch to the interior lighting with the LED able to be switched between five colours and also to be dimmed. The Intens gets a powered panoramic sunroof as standard. It’s available as an option in Zen but not offered in Life. There’s good volume of storage space with 438 litres with the rear seatbacks in place, extending to 1690 litres. All models get a one-touch folding mechanism for the rear seatbacks. Intens has an automatic bootlid

MODEL RANGE Koleos Life 2.5-litre petrol 2WD five-door wagon: $29,990 (automatic) Koleos Zen 2.5-litre petrol 2WD five-door wagon: $33,990 (automatic) Koleos Zen 2.5-litre petrol AWD five-door wagon: $36,490 (automatic) Koleos Intens 2.5-litre petrol AWD five-door wagon: $43,490 (automatic)

Stylish Renault Koleos grabs attention on the road. opening via the key fob and and can be closed either the same way or with a button on the bottom of the lid. The opening height can be reduced if needed. Standard across the Koleos range are six airbags; ABS brakes with emergency brake assist and electronic brakeforce distribution; electronic stability control; hill-start assist; IsoFix child seat anchors; reversing camera; rear parking sensors; tyre pressure monitoring; height adjustable headlights; and front and rear foglights. Zen adds front parking sensors; electronic parking brake; and automatic ‘walk-away’ door locking while the Intens tops off the safety package with advanced emergency braking; forward

collision warning system; lane departure warning; blind spot monitoring; LED headlights with automatic high/ low beam switching; side parking sensors; and parking assistance system. Koleos gets Renault’s latest R-Link 2 system for its infotainment technology. The premium Intens model displays onto an 8.7-inch tablet-style touchscreen with the Life and Zen getting a 7.0-inch portrait screen We felt that too many of the controls operate through the touchscreen including air conditioning temperature and fan speed adjustment. This requires too much attention to be diverted from the road, which is potentially dangerous.

There are USB ports both in the front console and the rear armrest. Bluetooth pairing is logical and quick. Surprisingly in these tech-conscious times neither Apple CarPlay nor Android Auto are available in any Koleos model. Life and Zen get an eight-speaker Arkamys sound system; Intens steps up to 12-speaker a Bose surroundsound system with 12 speakers, subwoofer and digital amplifier. Life has a key in ignition start/stop, Zen and Intens push button. The front seats are large, supportive and comfortable with the extra ground clearance (210 mm) in the AWD Intens providing a higher driving position and so better outward visibility. Our test was in the Koleos Intens and took in our usual mix of urban, motorway and rural conditions with an off-road diversion to see how the AWD coped. School holidays meant that our slog through Sydney’s congested roads was a little easier than normal and this combined with the high driving position and good all-round visibility meant that we escaped the city in a far more relaxed mood.
