Cheers to hospitality Blind Bight Brewery co-founders Scott and David are excited for their sales to soar as hospitality venues welcome back guests. The brewery has been a long-held dream for the long-time friends, who produce both beer and whisky from the novel set-up. “Around the campfire we’d talk about this, giving up our normal day jobs and make whisky and beer for a living,” David said. “But we haven’t realised that yet because it takes that much money to do this we have to keep working,” Scott added, laughing. And, not satisfied with the 12,000 litres a week they produce now, they have big plans ahead for expansion. Turn to page 8 for more

RSL doors close By Danielle Kutchel As the saying goes, when one door closes, another opens – and that’s looking to be the case for the Cranbourne RSL. The RSL’s location on the South Gippsland Highway closed its doors for good this week, after a protracted sale process. The building has been purchased by the Cranbourne Turf Club. But John Wells, president of the DandenongCranbourne RSL sub-branch, said the Cranbourne RSL would continue into the future.

tion park in Cranbourne. “I’m a bit hurt by accusations of Dandenong taking memorabilia from Cranbourne,” Mr Wells said, adding that was “absolutely not” happening. He said he also remained disappointed at the anger of Cranbourne members who he said hadn’t understood the inevitability of the sale. “I think the RSL will finish up with a stronger presence in Cranbourne than it had,” Mr Wells said “It will have a future. The RSL is still alive and will still be in Cranbourne.”

“sense of great sadness”, as well as a sense of personal failure at having never gotten Cranbourne back in the black. “There were losses so dramatic that in the end, they would pull Dandenong down too,” he said. While Mr Wells was unable to reveal how much the Turf Club has paid for the RSL, he said: “it cost Dandenong $11 million; we got less than half that back”.

“We’ve sold the building, not the subbranch,” he explained. He said the organisation was now focused on looking for a new location to house Cranbourne veterans, a process he anticipates being completed within 12 months. Much of the money from the sale of the old Cranbourne building would be put towards finding a new home, he added. The new location would still have space for veterans’ favourite past-times like carpet bowls. Mr Wells said the sale was tinged with a

IN BRIEF
South East Aussie heroes recognised Two leaders in the South East have been selected as nominees for the 2022 Victoria Australian of the Year Awards. Human rights and refugee advocate Nyadol Nyoun, of Lynbrook, and Sikh Volunteers Australia co-founder Jaswinder Singh, of Hallam, are among 16 Victorian finalists. Born in a refugee camp, Ms Nyoun, 33, has been a powerful voice for human rights, multiculturalism, refugees and people seeking asylum. She is among four finalists for the Victoria Australian of the Year. Her family, having fled the Sudanese Civil War, arrived in Melbourne in 2005. Since then, Ms Nyoun graduated in law at the University of Melbourne and has become a lawyer, writer, speaker, volunteer and motherof-two. She has spoken out on race and human rights issues, including media coverage targeting African gangs and Covid-19 law-breakers. As a result, she was subjected to racist online harassment and abuse. Ms Nyoun is an Advisory Committee member of the Andrew & Renata Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law. She also chairs Harmony Alliance – an Australian migrant and refugee women’s coalition that empowers migrant women, including improving their digital literacy. She has been recognised with the Harmony Alliance Award, the Afro-Australian Student Organisation‘s Unsung Hero Award and as cowinner of the Tim McCoy Prize. Other Victoria Australian of the Year nominees are paralympian Dylan Alcott, CSIRO chief scientist Professor Bronwyn Fox and domestic violence survivor/advocate Kimbarlie O’Reilly. Mr Singh, 37, has been nominated for the Victoria Local Hero category for his work as secretary of Sikh Volunteers Australia. Under a philosophy of selfless service or ‘seva’, his group delivers food to disadvantaged international students, older people, single parents and people who are homeless. It has come to the fore during the Victorian bushfires in 2020, the Covid-19 pandemic and recent flooding in Victoria and NSW. By the end of 2020, SVA delivered more than 140,000 meals to people-in-need during Covid lockdowns. Mr Singh has brought together and inspired individuals, communities and businesses to volunteer and donate to the cause. Other Victoria Local Hero nominees are
Covid infections in the South East are mounting despite a surge in vaccination rates. As of 26 October, Casey (167 new cases) and Greater Dandenong (143) had the most daily cases of Victorian council areas. There are now nearly 4500 active cases in the two municipalities.

A 34-year-old man has been charged for evading police in a stolen vehicle in Melbourne’s south-east. Police attempted to intercept a white Toyota Camry at 2.50am on Monday 25 October, but the driver failed to stop before driving at alleged speeds of over 120km/h on the wrong side of the road. Police monitored the vehicle from the air before the driver entered an underground carpark at Frankston Shopping Centre. Police said they observed the vehicle exiting the shopping centre and intercepted the car at the intersection of Karingal Drive and Derna Crescent. The man, who was on bail at the time, has been charged with a number of offences including theft of a motor vehicle, obtaining property by deception, driving in a dangerous manner while being pursued and evading police. He will appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court today.
Cup blitz is on Police will run state wide patrols over Melbourne Cup weekend as travel restrictions continue to ease. With travel restrictions between metropolitan Melbourne and regional Victoria being lifted when the state hits 80 per cent vaccination rate, police are anticipating an influx of travellers to regional areas and tourist hotspots. Victoria Police said 11 lives were lost year when lockdown lifted in 2020 and they are determined to avoid a repeat.
Human rights advocate Nyadol Nyuon has been listed as a nominee for Victoria Australian of the Year 2022. Mallacoota SES volunteer Leo op den Brouw, Brunswick West volunteer Phaik See (Cecilia) Chuah and musician/broadcaster Grant Hansen. The other two Victoria Australian of the Year Award categories are Victoria Young Australian of the Year and Victoria Senior Australian of the Year. Winners will be announced on 10 November. They will join other state and territory award recipients as national finalists. National Australia Day Council chief executive Karlie Brand said the Victorian nominees were “extraordinary people whose accomplishments are inspirational”. “They lead by example and make pathways for others. “They remind us that greatness comes in many forms and that we all have something to give.”
in Keysborough (20 residents, 11 staff) and Regis in Dandenong North (22 residents, three staff) still have active clusters. Two residents at Belvedere and one at Regis have died with Covid. Postcode hotspots are Dandenong (72 new cases, 935 active), Cranbourne (57, 781), Narre Warren (27, 445), Noble Park (23, 396), Hampton Park (29, 292) and Keysborough (24, 230).

due to a lot of Covid illness in the community. “Seeing is believing. They’re not convinced (Covid is a danger) until they see a lot of people sick. “That’s been flipping a lot of them over.” Latest figures show 90 per cent of Greater Dandenong residents 16-and-over have at least a single dose, with 67.9 per cent fully vaccinated. In Casey, more than 95 per cent were singledosed and 74.5 per cent with two doses. Vaccine rates in the Doveton and Dandenong postcodes have been significantly lower, however.
Ballarto Road in Clyde is receiving $4.25 million in road rehabilitation works including road widening, resealing and improved drainage. Road and lane closures are expected over the next six months before the works are completed. Minister for Roads and Road Safety Ben Carroll said the 5km stretch of road is located between Tuckers Road and Tooradin Station Road. “We know how important Ballarto Road is to locals and freight operators in Melbourne’s south-east, that is why we are rolling out vital maintenance works to ensure a safer and more robust road,” Mr Carroll said. “Road rehabilitations across the arterial network continue to be a key focus in our maintenance efforts to ensure reliability for all motorists.” Bass MP Jordan Crugnale said it was vital that Ballarto Road is made safer for the thousands of motorists who use it each day. “We thank the community for their patience while we complete this stretch of road rehabilitation to ensure it has continued capacity to accommodate current and future traffic volumes,” she said. Additional road sealing will take place between Twyford Road and Beaszley Road.

Time for a trim By Gabriella Payne The sun was shining on Friday morning as many shaggy-haired locals took to the streets with a spring in their step. After months of living with their lockdown locks, the first place many people flocked on the morning of 22 October was their local hairdresser, and the excitement in the air was plain to see. Mario Fallachi, the owner of Berwick’s New York Barbers and Fallachi Hair, said that people had begun lining up outside his business well before their doors swung open at 8am, and it was incredibly heartwarming to see. “When we started off at 8am, there was already a two and a half hour wait time - and that blew out to four hours at one point, there were that many people,“ Mr Fallachi said. “It was pretty ridiculous, but also really humbling to think that one of the first places that people think of [when restrictions eased] was to come to my place to get a haircut - it’s very humbling.” While Fallachi Hair (the ladies salon) was fully booked on Friday and remains in high demand for the next few weeks, the New York Barbers tried to get to as many people as they could, and Mr Fallachi said they cut over 150 people’s hair in their first day of trade alone despite density limits. “This time around it was a lot harder than last year [when we reopened post-lockdown] because then, we were able to do it with 10 barbers, but this time restrictions mean we can only have five, so there are longer wait times unfortunately,” he said. “But one of the things that I was thinking about over the weekend is that it’s just amazing that all these people that have been vaccinated are the reason that I’ve been able to open my shops again. “I am just so overwhelmed and grateful for that.”

what they love. “Every morning when I open the doors and tell people they can come in, I’m just so grateful,” he said. “We’ve had some really hard times but the future is looking really promising.”

Again, I am most sincerely grateful to all those involved; it is wonderful to know that there are such kind people in our community. David Fox-Smith, Berwick

New data shows 14,940 South-Eastern Melbourne residents completed bowel cancer screenings, doubling the original target of 7000 set by Cancer Council Victoria. Cancer Council Victoria launched a project in 2019 to increase participation of South-East residents in the national bowel cancer screening program after only 42.8 per cent of people in the area completed free screenings. The project aimed to develop promotional strategies for general practices to encourage members of the community to participate in the bowel cancer screening program through information, resources and support. Head of Cancer Screening at Cancer Council Victoria Kate Broun said the results proved the importance of long term proj-
ects with material tailored for culturally diverse communities. “In addition to our mass media activities we were able to reach key multicultural groups through targeted education sessions about the importance of bowel screening, along with instructions and support on how to complete the bowel kit when it arrived in the mail,” Ms Broun said. “Almost all respondents of those surveyed as part of the project evaluation reported that their understanding and awareness of bowel cancer screening had increased as a result of the education session they attended, and that they felt more confident to complete their bowel screening kit.” Cancer Council Victoria worked in partnership Professor of Primary Cancer Research Jon Emery from the University of Melbourne to engage with general practitioners and health professionals. “GPs play a key role in lifting screening
participation rates, whether it’s through encouraging patients to do the home-test; explaining what is involved in the test; dispelling myths or sending letters or text messages to patients who are about to receive the test,” Professor Emery said. “GPs are well-trusted sources of health information in our multicultural communities, they are integral to the success of this campaign and the National Bowel Cancer Screening Program.” New data from the Cancer Council Victoria’s Cancer Registry shows a 17 per cent decrease of bowel cancer incidence during the first nine months of 2020 when compared to the same period in 2019. This data has caused Cancer Council Victoria to launch a new media campaign because of fears it could be caused by delays in residents seeing a doctor or completing a free screening. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au

Years of fond memories By Shelby Brooks and Parker McKenzie
The Bear House has been an iconic Cranbourne location for years. 255551 Picture: STEWART CHAMBERS
Cranbourne iconic venue By Shelby Brooks and Parker McKenzie An iconic Cranbourne dining spot and attached motel is expected to make between $6.3-6.5 million after being listed for sale earlier this month. The 6089 square metre property at 110 Sladen Street, where the Bear House Restaurant and Mahogany Park Motel operate, has been on the market for two weeks. The Bear House is recognisable by its distinctive log cabin restaurant and quaint motel rooms nestled next door to the Cranbourne Rotary Park.
New Century Real Estate agent Kim Ke there had been high interest in the unique property, however the restaurant and motel businesses are not up for sale and are expected to remain operating as is for the meantime. “The agency has fielded a number of bids but a final decision hasn’t been made,” he said. “There are some people who want to buy it and continue to use it as a restaurant. “But others might use it differently. We are still waiting on a final contract and decision.”
Residents of Cranbourne took to Facebook to share their favourite memories of the Bear House over the years. Andrew Swain recalled when a fire tore through the property years ago. “When it burnt down about 18 years ago, when I was a member of Cranbourne CFA,” he said. “The walls were standing all internal and roof were guttered.” Others shared memories of the different restaurant ventures from over the years. Jeff Bailey said he loved it when it was the Red Baron steak house. Rhonda Brooks agreed. “I remember when it was a Steakhouse. Good food and good atmosphere. Recently I’ve loved the Chinese food from here...always tasty and served with a smile. Looking
forward to the next phase within this interesting building,” she said. Another recalled weddings, birthdays and first dates at the venue. One even thought the TV show Neighbours filmed there once. “My first date ever. I was 16 and so nervous,” Lee Wickham said. “They had a dancing coke can on counter. I got a cottage pie because I did not know what every thing else was. A few years later got the biggest chicken schnitzel ever. The Chinese was good 30 years later.” Narelle Hopkins said her mum and stepdad had their wedding dinner there many years ago. “It was lovely and they stayed in the motel, I thought it was super fancy. Loved it when it was a steakhouse but I haven’t been able to try the Chinese everyone says is yum.”

Blind Bight’s hidden gem By Shelby Brooks Tucked away in what was a family rumpus room in Blind Bight, an impressive professional grade distillery is making a name for itself in the craft beer market. Blind Bight Brewery was a dream of long time mates David McLeod and Scott Hooper, who turned it into a reality four years ago. “Around the campfire we’d talk about this, giving up our normal day jobs and make whisky and beer for a living,” David said. “But we haven’t realised that yet because it takes that much money to do this we have to keep working,” Scott added, laughing. They toured local and international breweries in Asia to take inspiration when planning their own set up, which can produce 12,000 litres of beer a week. Their long term goal is to eventually have a local hospitality venue showcasing their beer and whisky. A big focus of the brewery has been on their whisky production, taking particular attention to the barrels in which the whisky is stored. “Every barrel is definitely unique because they have a different char level or a toast level or a different manufacturer or a different product that’s been in it,” David said. “We don’t use any new, virgin oak casks. It’s just the diversity, we want to do like single barrel releases. So they’ll be like 200 bottles and that’s it.” “We’ve been told only two people in Australia are doing what we’re doing- that’s just picking the best of the best barrels.” They’re hoping to leave the whisky for four years before bottling it. “It’s an investment on our side. So then we’ll get more value for our product at the end. Because I would say 90 plus percent of whiskies that are produced in Australia do not have an age statement, which means they’re not any

“The beers we make here are our version of an ale,” Scott said. “We have a mid and a heavy ale called Westernport Ale. They’re very refreshing.”
Although Covid-19 diminished a lot of the brewery’s sales, online orders have kept the business afloat as they wait for revenue to pick up with the return of hospitality. “What we found was that one of the first things people did in Covid was stop buying premium beer,” David said. “It was because everyone a little bit unsure about their jobs and their livelihoods.” “Hopefully our sales will pick up a little bit more as restaurants open back up.

Meanwhile, families may be struggling to access government payments and other forms of support due to language barriers or not understanding the complex procedures. And while the $15,000 in funding has been useful, Mr Gai said with the strong demand being experienced it was likely the society would run out of money in the next couple of weeks. But he said the society would not leave families in the dark, and would link them with other services that could help while also applying for more funding. “It’s critical to have ongoing support so we can continue to play a role in helping people put food on the table,” he said. “As challenging as the pandemic has been

To celebrate Halloween, Bunjil Place will be hosting a free wearable art workshop for kids on Saturday 30 October. Artists Sarah Seahorse and Luna Aquatica will lead children for a headdress and/or mask making workshop with a focus on free, recycled and easy to access materials. “Through our creative, fun and practical craft workshops, we hope to encourage people to think outside the boxor inside the recycling box as the case may be!” Sarah Seahorse said. “Through creative re-imagining of household waste, unloved clothing, broken toys or jewellery- we hope to encourage people to see discarded waste in a whole new light and create wonderful new wearable creations they can be proud of while also saving things from going into landfill. “Our work is special in that it is colourful, beautiful, inspiring as well as sparking conversations about recycling and re-purposing materials. We also hope to encourage people to express themselves, dress up and feel powerful in something they have handmade themselves or collaborated with family and friends.” Head to bunjilplace.com.au to book your spot in the Monster Mask workshop.

While families continue to feel the pandemic’s bite, the South Sudanese-Australian Academic Society is helping them put food on the table. The Casey-based group recently received $15,000 in State Government funding as part of the Priority Response to Multicultural Communities program, to deliver food relief to those who have been impacted by the pandemic. This includes people in isolation or quarantine as well as those whose employment has been affected by lockdown restrictions, either through reduced work or job loss. “We’ve just been flooded with phone calls and messages from across the community,” explained co-founder of the South SudaneseAustralian Academic Society, Andrew Gai. The funding has allowed the society to deliver culturally appropriate food relief to 53 families so far, right across Melbourne, including 26 in the western region. The majority of the remainder are from the City of Casey, and other families have been in the outer eastern suburbs. There have been countless hours of work involved, but Mr Gai said it makes him feel like he’s contributing to “the bigger picture” thanks to the impact the deliveries have had on struggling families. “People are just thankful someone is thinking about them.” He recalled one family that had just run out of supplies when their food relief delivery arrived. “When we came, we were timely support,” Mr Gai said. “Being in that position where you just can’t go out and can’t provide for your family at times like this can be quite stressful. We’re making a small difference.” The society has stepped in where other

Big ambitions The City of Casey adopted four major strategies at its council meeting on Tuesday 19 October, after several weeks of consultation with residents. Following a four-week public consultation period throughout August and September, the following strategies were formally endorsed by the council, with the actions from each to be delivered for our community: The Infrastructure Strategy 2021-25 The Economic Development Strategy 202125 The Health and Wellbeing Strategy 2021-25 The Environment Strategy 2021-25 Each of these strategies were developed based on extensive recent community consultation, as well as the Shape Your City engagement program, which heard from more than 6000 community members. City of Casey chair of administrators Noelene Duff said she was proud of the work that went into developing these documents, as well as the commitment to involving our residents and ensuring their voices were heard. “Each of these four documents set out a series of ambitious and exciting steps, which will better position Council to support our community, and help to deliver on their priorities for the future,” Ms Duff said. “From getting our community more active, to contributing to lower family violence rates, creating a more connected community via roads and transport, and creating a more sustainable environment, there are so many important aspects of these documents that we will be focused on. “Each strategy is centred around providing better outcomes for our community and will also help to deliver on Council’s Long-Term Community Vision 2031, which is to become a more connected, bold and resilient community.” The actions from these strategies are also

Congratulations to

Congratulations to St. Peter’s College – Clyde North Campus, the Class of 2021 Our school Motto, “Be Not Afraid” has held you in good stead throughout the trials and tribulations of the last two challenging years. On each and every step along the journey you have held your head high and tackled each challenge as it arose. We are proud of your achievements and we wish you well as soon you walk out St. Peter’s College gates for the final time. Chris Black Principal
While 2020 was hard enough, COVID-19 decided to go one better in 2021. While both my VCE years have been affected by COVID-19 interruptions, in 2021 it has meant that I wasn’t able to fulfil my role as College Captain to a level that I would have wanted, but in saying that, being a Leader in this time has still been one of the greatest experiences in my schooling years.
They say Year 12 is one of the best, and the most memorable year of your high school experience, and this year is certainly one we will never forget. While lockdown has taken us through its many ups and downs, I could not be more proud of all the students, particularly our Year 12 Graduates, of St. Peter’s College for their resilience and commitment during such an unpredictable time.
The way in which St. Peter’s College has supported me and my fellow Year 12 students through our disrupted VCE is something I will be grateful for and remember for a long time to come. I will be forever grateful that I was able to be part of such a friendly and supportive environment for my high school experience.
Although I could not connect with you all as much on Campus as I would have wanted to, it has been an honour to be your College Captain this year. As you step into the next chapter of your very bright future, know that you are always supported and ‘Be Not Afraid’.

BUSINESS PROFILE
Face-to-face There have recently been a number of articles that focus on the post-pandemic work environment with many pointing to a significant increase in staff movement. The past Covid-19 lockdowns have given staff time to think seriously about their roles, what they enjoy, what they don’t and what they want to achieve out of their vocation. While many in the travel, hospitality and retail sectors have already been forced into pivoting into different industries, it is anticipated that many more will be looking for new roles even within the same sectors spurred on by the increased flexibility that now exists through remote working or simply the opportunity of new challenges. I have previously written about interview technique from an employer’s perspective so I thought that this time it might be useful to write an article on how employees might present the best version of themselves at interview so here are some tips for candidates to maximise their chance of success. Prepare properly: Prospective employers will be looking to determine the level of genuine interest you have in the role so to this end, find out as much as you can about the company before you turn up. Obviously it is important to check out their website to find out what matters to this business, the nature of their products and services and what differentiates this business from their competition. Also take some time to check out their LinkedIn and Facebook sites if they have them to see what they post. Be punctual: You only get one chance to make a first impression and being late will get the interview off on the wrong foot from the start. Getting there a few minutes early will give you a
TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS IAN ASH chance to compose yourself and find out more about the company itself such as…… Find out about the company culture: Interviews really are a two-way process so you should do everything you can to find out about the company culture, i.e. does the company’s focus and way of working align with your core values? You can do this by asking good questions and asking to be shown around the premises. Listen well: Good interviewers will have a purpose behind their questions so it is important to listen well to what is being asked and wherever possible back up your answers with evidence (see below). Avoid the temptation to answer too quickly - if you need time to think about the question, take it. Have good questions ready: A good way for interviewers to determine if a candidate is really interested in the role is by the questions that are asked so make sure you prepare two or three that will help you with your decision. Although you will need to know the salary package on offer avoid focusing on the remuneration too much and don’t make it the first question as this may send the wrong message.

Back into the spotlight By Parker McKenzie
“Other than rehearsal it will be the first time,” Mark says. “I mean who doesn’t want to get on stage and their clothes off?” For stage actors like Mark the pandemic has been time away from what he loves. “To get back on stage is nice and we’ve but so much work into the show,” he says. “Lockdowns haven’t been ideal, but we are just looking forward to getting back into it.” The cast haven’t returned for their first in person rehearsal yet, but the director has kept them busy with Zoom rehearsals. “I told them not to use their scripts, but I definitely spotted a few of them watching off screen,” Michelle says. The show is currently sold out on 2 of the
4 nights, although BATS theatre company are hoping to release more tickets once density limits are confirmed as restrictions ease. “Most of the tickets went to people who really supported us, but we are we hoping to release more once we get closer to the date and restrictions change,” Michelle says. For Michelle the biggest relief is being able to finally have people perform the show after weeks of Zoom rehearsals and proving the wait wasn’t for nothing. “There are a lot of companies that have pulled their entire season for the year, and it’s sad not a lot of people have been able to finish what they started.” she says. The Full Monty is running from the 18-21 November at Cranbourne Community Theatre.
12518196-HC44-21
The cult classic film The Full Monty will finally reach the stage in Cranbourne East when the long postponed theatrical adaption by BATS Theatre Company is performed in November. The movie– about unemployed steel workers who decide to strip to make ends meet – was first adapted for the stage in 2014 by Simon Beaufoy and will now be performed at the Cranbourne Community Theatre. Despite starting production in 2020, a snap lockdown postponed the show from July 2020 to August. After another lengthy lockdown in Victoria postponed the show indefinitely a second time, Director Michelle Zintschenko says she is relieved to finally be able to bring the show to life. “We started rehearsing in April this year, but we actually held our auditions in March last year,” Michelle says. “We just need this to happen for the cast and for everybody involved.” While she has directed shows outside of BATS Theatre Company, her biggest worry leading up to the opening night is a new experience. “I’ve directed a lot of school shows mostly, but really there isn’t much of a difference between teenagers and a predominately male cast,” she says. “My first hope is everyone still fits into their costume, especially with the lead gentlemen having their costumes tailored to – spoiler alert – come off in the end.” One gentlemen hoping to still fit into his costume is Mark Christie, who is playing the lead role of Gaz – played by Robert Carlyle in the film – and he says taking his clothes off in front of an audience will be a new experience.

Eagles welcomed in By Nick Creely
Mitch White has signed with Cranbourne. 192828 Picture: ROB CAREW
The Southern Football Netball League has officially welcomed Cranbourne into the competition in 2022, after the Eagles and Outer East parted ways earlier this month. The Eagles - alongside Doveton - have departed the competition officially, with both clubs set to significantly bolster the Southern league. As first reported by the Gazette on 8 October, the Eagles will be looking to join Division 1 of the Southern Football Netball League next season, where it’s expected it will be a strong side under re-signed coach Steve O’Brien. In a statement, the Eagles said it was looking forward to the next chapter of their journey and beginning to establish new rivalries. “We have found the management and board of the SFNL to be fantastic to work with; professional, proactive and decisive in their
style and for this we are very excited to join this wonderful league, expressing our desire to a long-term commitment,” the statement read. “The Cranbourne Netball Club will field four senior teams in the SFNL and keep their juniors affiliated with AFLOE. We will continue to work with the netball club as they learn to adapt to a different life as well; one which we hope they grasp and enjoy as much as we will. “As a football club, our travels have been up many different paths in our 132 years; from being a founding member of the Berwick and District FA, inaugural member of the South West Gippsland FL as well as an affiliated club of the Mornington Peninsula Nepean FL, Casey-Cardinia FNL, South East FNL and AFL Outer East FNL. From these travels we have come across many different clubs, formed many different rivalries and made plenty of friends….and some enemies. “These different rivalries are historic and
while they offer us great memories of the past, it is now the memories of the future we now look forward to making; to be able to forge great rivalries with different clubs, in a different league, in a new era.” After announcing an impressive bundle of re-signings, such as Jordan Bertrand, Michael Boland, Jake Carosella, Nick Russo, Max Gearon, and skipper Brandon Osborne, the Eagles have signed ex-Melbourne defender Mitch White. White - after playing four AFL games - has been at the Casey Demons since 2018 after his AFL career came to a close, and has been captain of the VFL side since 2019, where he made Team of the Year that season and has remained one of the state-league’s biggest stars. While White still remains a vital part of the Demons’ VFL side, where he is expected to remain captain in 2022, he’s expected to feature for the Eagles at stages next season.
‘Patto’ calls time on passionate international career majority of his career, the 31-year-old originally from Doveton, and came through the Dandenong Cricket Club where he’s still a beloved mate and player, gave everything in the Baggy Green when given the opportunity. But now the paceman will continue plying his trade for Victoria when he overcomes his latest injury, while for fans of Premier Cricket, the Dandenong Cricket Club will be hoping to see more of its favourite son moving forward. James – alongside his older brother Dar-
By Nick Creely After a sublime and entertaining career as an Australian Test cricketer, Dandenong favourite son James Pattinson has called time on his international career. The right-arm pace bowling dynamo, who plays with an immense passion that has adhered himself to fans across the globe, played 21 Test matches, 15 ODIs and four Twenty20s for Australia, taking exactly 100 international wickets along the way. Although hampered by injuries for the
ren – has an extensive history with the Panthers out of Shepley Oval. He debuted for the club in 2006/07, made his Victorian debut in 2008, before he made his Test debut against New Zealand in 2011, where he burst onto the scene with 5/27 and man of the match honours. Cricket Victoria CEO Nick Cummins, congratulated Pattinson on his achievements for Australia in what has been a fascinating journey. “James continues to be a fantastic ambas-
sador for Australian and Victorian cricket and we congratulate him on a fine career at international level,” Cummins said. “Throughout his career, he has consistently challenged the very best batters in the world. “James’ journey has included injury hurdles and setbacks, which he has shown the determination to fight his way back from. He always took great pride in representing his country and was the ultimate competitor every time he stepped on the field for Australia.”

Fernando Mick qualified fastest for Saturday night’s final of the Cranbourne Cup. 255158

Veteran chaser Lots Of Chatter scores an impressive win in his heat of the Cranbourne Cup. 255158
Cranny Cup up for grabs Popular trainer Graeme Jose will be keen to add a Cranbourne Cup to his impressive resume after training a winning-double in heats of the Group-2 $50,000 classic on Friday night. Jose will have Lots Of Chatter and Aston Shine engaged in the cup after scoring stylish victories in their heats. After finishing second to Paua Of Buddy in the Bendigo Cup final last Saturday, Jose’s 85-start veteran Lots Of Chatter was striving to qualify for his second successive Cranbourne Cup decider after finishing fourth to Jax Bale in February. Drawn in Box 8, as he was in the Bendigo Cup, Lots Of Chatter continued his purple patch of form, downing Xavien Bale in 29.77sec to chalk up his 31st career win and third from his past four starts. “The only reason why I was glad we drew the eight is it does give him room to move and he makes his own luck,” Jose said. “If he gets 10-15 metres clear room he’s nearly as good as the good dogs. “But in saying that, if he’d drawn one, two or three tonight maybe it would’ve been a different result and he might have been down the track.
“He just needs a little bit of clear running, like in the Bendigo Cup heat when they fanned and he just went kaboom. That’s him in a nutshell.” Aston Shine, who ran fourth in the Bendigo Cup, then completed Jose’s double with an allthe-way 29.89sec performance in heat five, his fourth win from his last five starts. “I’m just in awe, I put in a lot of hard work and I think it’s paying off,” Jose said. Jose was a star footballer around the Gippsland region in his day, winning the Alf Walton Medal awarded to the best and fairest player in the Ellinbank and District Football League (EDFL) when playing for Bunyip in 1994. Meanwhile, David Geall’s ‘Midas touch’ in country cups continues unabated with Fernando Mick upstaging superstar kennelmate Koblenz – on the clock anyway - with a nearrecord performance in his Cranbourne Cup heat. Geall, who’s won three country cups this year courtesy of Ferdinand Boy (Ballarat, Healesville and Shepparton) was one of three trainers to claim heat doubles. Geall was victorious with long odds-on
favourite Koblenz and Fernando Mick; Jose qualified his pair for back-to-back cup finals after both contested last week’s Bendigo Cup, while Andrea Dailly also had two winners in Lala Kiwi and Daph’s Ascend. Fernando Mick, runner-up in the G1 Maturity Classic, set the qualifying standard in the opening heat, defeating defending Cup champion Jax Bale, also trained by Andrea Dailly, in a scorching 29.62sec. His 13th win at start 44 was just .08sec outside the 29.54sec course record held by It’s A Blaze. Koblenz, a regally bred son of Fernando Bale, starting at $1.30 in heat four and in a courageous display he dug deep to defeat outsider Gracie Bale in 29.86sec. The win improved Koblenz’s phenomenal record to 22 from 35 and Geall is hoping it will be a case of third time lucky in a Group final, with the blueblood having run minor placings in the Cranbourne Classic and Warragul St. Leger at G3 level. “I actually thought he was going to get beaten,” Geall told Troy Harley post-race. “When Kinson Bale got to him I thought he was in a bit of strife. He couldn’t shake it off but
he’s just courageous. Very happy with that last bit. “Fernando Mick did surprise me by three or four lengths. I thought if he did win and get a clear run early we were hoping he might run 29.85/29.90sec. Lala Kiwi improved her perfect record at Cranbourne to four from four, including the G3 Cranbourne Classic, with a dominant 29.78sec victory in heat two, and Daph’s Ascend then provided ‘Team Dailly’ with their second heat winner, taking out the final runoff in 29.88secs.

Turf cricket gets go ahead as summer sport draws near By Nick Creely The Victorian Premier Cricket competition is set to begin on the weekend of 13 and 14 November, with Cricket Victoria confirming the start date last week. Cricket clubs and associations were given the all-clear to begin their pre-season training on Friday with Metropolitan Melbourne’s lockdown officially coming to a close, with preparations now well and truly underway for what is expected to be an uninterrupted summer of cricket. For Victoria’s highest standard of club cricket, the men’s competitions will play 16 one day matches this season, played in white ball/colours including finals, while the women’s season is set to feature 14 one-dayers and finals, with the women’s second and third XI competitions will play 10 one-dayers and six Twenty20s. In pleasing news, the VicSuperSlam Twenty20 competition is making its return this season, with three pools of six teams to play five games and finals, commencing Tuesday 30 November. The Slam will run a little differently, with a West, Central and East pool, with games scheduled on Tuesday nights at 5.15pm. The cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au
semi-finals will be played on Tuesday 18 January with the top team in each pool plus the highest placed second team to compete. The final is scheduled to be played on the evening on Tuesday 25 January. Dandenong finished runners-up in the 2019/20 tournament Stars Conference, going down to Richmond, but were the Grand Slam champions in the Slam’s first season of 2018/19. The Dandenong District Cricket Association has also locked in its season start date, with the seniors to begin on Saturday 13 November, while juniors will make a start from Friday 12 November. Like Premier Cricket, the DDCA’s highlyregarded Twenty20 competition will return this season, but after Christmas, with 24 sides to be broken into eight groups. Eight clubs will randomly be selected to host the first round triple header games on Sunday 9 January, with the the quarter finals on Tuesday 18 January, semi-finals on Tuesday 25 January and the grand final on Wednesday 2 February. Buckley Ridges are the current title holders of the Twenty20 tournament, with the Bucks defeating Springvale South back on 3 March 2020 at Shepley Oval.

Magpies up for challenge By Nick Creely A return to the Dandenong District Cricket Association Turf 1 ranks holds no fear for Narre Warren. The Magpies - off the back of unwavering momentum from their Turf 2 premiership glory last season - return to the association’s highly regarded top-flight for the first time since being relegated three seasons ago. Saturday 20 March, 2021 was a special day for the Magpies, defeating Dandenong West in a dominant grand final performance at Carroll Reserve, having capped off a sublime homeand-away season with an eye-catching victory. But the new challenge awaits the club as it looks to build on that momentum. While knowing what is likely to confront them in the hotly contested Turf 2 competition which seems to go from strength to strength each season, Magpies coach Brett Lewis said his group simply can’t wait for Saturday 13 November’s season start, with pre-season training now beginning. “We can’t wait, the boys have been like cats on a hot tin roof, they’re ready to go,” he said. “The guys have been getting together and having a hit because they’re all local in little groups, and I’d say there’s been 15 or 20 of the ones and twos doing that. “We’ve got some very good talent amongst those boys, they’re certainly up and about.” Lewis said that the club is backing in its Turf 2 premiership group to deliver, having spent the off-season not necessarily recruiting, but retaining the side under skipper Cam Dinger and his vice-captains Zach Allen and Ben Swift. He added that seeing a club like Hallam Kalora Park achieve premiership glory last season - a side glittered with homegrown talent was tremendous motivation. “Just seeing who’s coming into the competition, and the way Springy South and Buckley have recruited, and also Berwick is great,” he said. “But the sides like Hallam are the ones I look at - the amount of home grown talent in that team, and what they’ve done and where they’ve been and the amount of individuals that have come back together, that’s the key. “It’s about having that clique, having 11 players play for each other - we’ll field the house down, we’ll be a great fielding team, the boys pride themselves on that, and to play their roles.
Cam Dinger batting for Narre Warren during last year’s grand final.231955 “It was hard to manage last year, there were a lot of egos in there, but it clicked late and everyone knows that it might be their day to sacrifice to allow someone else to come in.” Lewis said that in such an esteemed competition such as Turf 1, depth, consistency and focus were the most important factors. “You can’t afford those little lapses, you have to be completely focused, and know your role, and we’ve got some good youth coming through too who can play those same roles,” he said. “We’ll bat deep, we’ll bat to number nine, 10 and 11, and that’s the key, we need to bat deep, be a good fielding side, and we’ve got plenty of bowling options, some good control bowlers and good attacking bowlers. “We won’t be reliant on one or two players, we’re confident we have the depth.” The Magpies will be hoping Dinger, Allen
and Swift can really rack up the runs with the bat having combined for 882 last season, while are also confident that spearhead Josh Dinger (33 wickets last season), Kasun Balasuriya (13 wickets) and James Elliott (seven wickets) can continue forming a dangerous bowling attack and really surprise sides. Dinger in particular was a menace for batters last season, having captured his 33 scalps at an impressive average of 9.79, including a best of 6/21 in the grand final. He’s got pace, and a really bright future. With the DDCA season to once again be played in a one-day format, Lewis said that the side was well-suited to the shorter game, believing it has a dangerous edge that can pose problems for opposition sides. He said that the side’s flexibility, combined with a selfless attitude, is what is the key this season.
Picture: ROB CAREW “We’ll be working off pretty much the same guidelines as last year, we didn’t really click with it really until the last few rounds of last season,” he said. “We want to build partnerships, set yourself, bowl to plans and on one side of the wicket. “The strategy is about retention of runs and then definitely around building an innings it’s imperative and I’ll always coach that way. You’ve got to back yourself with good footwork, be aggressive, and use your feet well. “If we were going to be playing a two-day format, we’d be changing our entire mindset we’d be looking to bat longer, take your time more, I’d change the batting order. “It is a completely different strategy - we’d be back to bowling a lot more change up balls, not necessarily taking wickets but to contain, so it’d be different.”
Rebellious issues a stern Bears lock in their skipper warning for Melbourne Cup By Nick Creely
By Jason Adams Boom youngster Rebellious issued a fierce statement with a scathing win at Sandown Park on Thursday night. He began cleanly then accelerated to lead and at that point it was game over. He set hot splits and won in a scorching time of 29.10 – the sixth fastest this year. “When he wasn’t really shaking Gypsy Bun up the back straight I thought he was on track for 29.25 or so but then 29.10 came up, that’s what we’d thought he’d go coming into today,” said Luke Thompson, son of trainer Jason Thompson. It was the way that he handled himself that was most notable. His first two races at the track in August he swung wide at the turn and didn’t handle it as well as you’d expect for one his ability. “In those first two starts he didn’t handle that first turn at all. He’d be up there early in the race then lose two or three lengths. He’s had a couple of trials here since and handled it a lot better and again today.” Rebellious, or ‘Danny’ as he’s known, has won 14 of his 20 starts and is timing his run well as we snowball towards the world’s greatest greyhound race, the TAB Melbourne Cup. “I’m not too sure where his next run will be, possibly here in a Prelude.” Greyhounds must compete in a Prelude or win an exemption race to be eligible for TAB Melbourne Cup heats on Friday November 19. 22 STAR NEWS

There’s a new man in charge down at Berwick as it gears up for another crack at the Turf 1 title this season. He bowls fast, is a clean hitter of a cricket ball, and has an imposing record both at Dandenong District Cricket Association and Victorian Premier Cricket level. The Bears have named favourite son James ‘Maxy’ Wilcock as their new Turf 1 skipper, replacing the great Matthew Chasemore with the season just a matter of weeks away. Chasemore will stay on in a playing capacity. Wilcock first debuted for the Bears’ Turf 1 side at 15 during the 2007/08 season, and took 5/24 in a semi-final against Parkfield that season, going on to eventually winning a flag the following week. From there, the right-arm quick would eventually venture down to Shepley Oval and play with Dandenong, going on to play 99 matches for the Panthers for 145 wickets at an impressive average of 21.71. And after 48 wickets in his last two seasons back at local level with his home club, the Bears are backing in their man to lead the group moving forward. It’s been a busy off-season of recruiting for the Bears, who have welcomed back exState quick Andrew Perrin, who retired from Premier Cricket after winning a premiership with Prahran, talented leg-spinner Riley Siwes from Dandenong West, as well as champion Mordialloc keeper-batsman

The DDCA season kicks off on Saturday 13 November, with the fixtures yet to be released at the time of print. cranbournenews.starcommunity.com.au
