Anger is boiling over among local sports clubs that may be moved or merged to make way for the West Gate road distributor. Speculation abounds that Spotswood Football Club (SFC) may be relocated to Altona North Cricket Club (ANCC), a move both clubs vehemently oppose. SFC president and Spotswood Sporting Club board member Alan Given said such a move would affect many more than 300 children. “There’s actually the football club, the cricket club, a little bit of golf and the netball club, which all come under the heading of the Spotswood
Sporting Club,” he said. “Spotswood Cricket Club plays turf cricket and there’s no suitable turf wicket at the central Altona ground, so whether they intend to actually relocate them for a season … because, essentially, at the northern end of McLean Reserve, it’s going to become a construction zone.” Mr Given wrote to Williamstown MP Wade Noonan last year and was informed his concerns had been forwarded to Roads Minister Luke Donnellan. Mr Given said he was frustrated that he had not received a word from Mr Donnellan. “It just shows absolute and utter contempt for the constituents, the people of Spotswood,

and it’s like, ‘we will tell you what’s happening when we’re good and ready’,” he said. “I just think that’s a terrible way to go about running a state government.” Altona North Cricket Club president Greg Doyle, whose four senior teams train on the same grounds as the Western Jets, said he was taken aback at news that Spotswood players could be transferred to his club’s facilities. He said there was no room at Crofts Reserve for more players: “100 per cent not”. “We’ve been there since the ground was opened and we’re not planning on moving to let Spotswood in there, that’s for sure,” he said. “We’d like to know if it’s gonna happen what
it looks like, so we can start planning,” he said. MP Wade Noonan said taking heavy trucks off residential streets in the inner-west was a priority of the West Gate Distributor project. “But I understand that this project will have an impact on our community,” he said. “I will be an active voice for affected residents, councils, sporting clubs and other groups in our community as more details of this project become available, including ensuring their views are heard at the highest levels of government.” Mr Donnellan declined to comment on the sporting club’s plight despite several requests from Star Weekly.

Stabbing result of ‘ice’ abuse A Yarraville woman has been sentenced to eight years in prison over the stabbing death of her partner. Brittney Johnston, 22, pleaded guilty to manslaughter after stabbing James Berias in the chest with a large kitchen knife on April 6 last year. Supreme Court Justice Christopher Beale found Johnston had a history of violence towards the 34-year-old victim and was affected by ‘ice’ at the time of the stabbing. The court heard the pair had a brief but volatile relationship, with Johnston knocking out the victim’s tooth as well as cutting him with a knife on at least two other occasions in the month before his death. Johnston told an examining psychologist she had gone without sleep for four or five days before the incident. Justice Beale found the offence to have been connected to Johnston’s substance abuse and a troubled childhood, but could not have been considered self-defence. “What is clear is that, by your plea of guilty, you acknowledge that you stabbed Mr Berias and that you had no justification for doing so, that you were not acting in lawful self-defence,” he said. “Even though I have found you have reasonable prospects of rehabilitation, specific deterrence assumes prominence because of your history of violence and use of knives.”

Police identify limbs on his forearm. The image closely resembles the front cover of Sydney punk band Downtime’s late-90s album Tooth and Nail. Detective Inspector Mick Hughes said public support has been crucial to the investigation. “The response from the public has been tremendous,” he said. “Despite the confronting nature of these discoveries, people have acted quickly and contacted police immediately.” Investigators are appealing to anyone who may have knowledge of the incident to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au.

Forensic investigations are due to confirm the identity of a man whose body parts were found in the Maribyrnong River last week. A homicide investigation was launched last Thursday when a human arm was spotted floating on the river near Maribyrnong. On Saturday, a local man saw a leg poking out of a shopping bag on the river’s edge, about 500 metres from where the arm was found. Maribyrnong police’s Inspector Tony Long said further human remains were retrieved from the river on Sunday morning.
A woman rowing near the Maribyrnong Road bridge about 8am on Sunday spotted a plastic bag containing the remains. Homicide squad detectives are confident this latest find is linked to the remains found in the river over preceding days. They believe they have now identified the deceased person but are seeking confirmation by forensic examination. The remains are believed to belong to a Melbourne man, aged in his late 30s. A member of the man’s family came forward on Sunday after police released an image detailing a tattoo of a devil holding a spray can

Vulnerable women and children of the west are at risk of becoming homeless unless there’s an urgent commitment to funding, a Footscray-based service has found. Women’s Health West (WHW) supports women and children fleeing family violence through programs funded under the National Partnership Agreement on Homelessness (NPAH), which is set to expire on June 30. The Victorian government wants to extend the agreement for another three years, committing $29.1 million this year, but the federal government has refused to lock in its contribution. WHW chief executive Robyn Gregory said the refusal comes as the service faces a growing crisis, reflected by 836 police referrals in January alone. That dwarfs the 708 referrals over the entire 2006-07 year, less than a decade ago. Dr Gregory said partnership funding in 2013-14 helped WHW support 85 women and 111 children, keeping 29 women safe in their homes after experiencing family violence. WHW has helped with home security installations, court support for intervention orders, interim crisis accommodation and after-hours crisis response. “Family violence most often occurs after 5pm and at the weekend, when families are together. As such, the 24-hour family violence crisis response program is a critical component of our service,” Dr Gregory said. “Without NPAH funding, these programs will end.” 10021081-05
DR ROBYN GREGORY
Dr Gregory has joined 50 chief executives from homelessness agencies in signing an open letter to Social Services Minister Scott Morrison calling for an end to funding uncertainty. The unprecedented move could mean that thousands of vulnerable people are rendered homelesss if $115 million in funding is allowed to expire. Other service providers affected include Iramoo Youth Refuge, McAuley Community Services for Women, Melbourne Citymission, the Salvation Army and Yarra Community Housing. Homelessness Australia chief executive Glenda Stevens said short-term funding cycles forced services to turn people away. “We’d like to see the funding return to a four-year cycle,” she said. Mr Morrison said future NPAH funding will be considered as part of the 2015-16 budget, while longer-term arrangements for housing assistance and homelessness services will be considered in the government-commissioned White Paper on Reform of the Federation.

Costs queried in childcare row By Goya Dmytryshchak Parents are continuing to fight moves to outsource Altona North and Altona Meadows childcare centres after Hobsons Bay council this week released its revised childcare policy. A report to the council says the Victorian Competition and Efficiency Commission (VCEC) estimates the cost of running the two council-managed centres is more than $1 million a year, while a KPMG report estimates the cost at $500,000.
Concerned parent Keir Dernelley questioned how such a discrepancy could occur. He said parents could not query the VCEC’s figures because its report would not be publicly released until February 27. “The two centres cater to approximately 200 families across the municipality,” he said. “Based on VCEC figures, the price increase would be approximately $5000 per family per year or $100 per week to cover the $1 million overhead. “The KPMG report estimates that the

forced redundancy of 50 council staff will cost ratepayers in the area of $1 million.” Nearly 2700 people have signed a petition to keep the centres open. Parents fear outsourcing would erode the quality and increase the cost of childcare. Lead petitioner Rachel Hart said parents
continued to object to the council’s revised childcare policy. “While the policy is an improvement on the first draft, disappointingly, they did not reinstate the commitment to the direct provision of services at Altona North and Altona Meadows childcare centres,” she said. The Australian Services Union is concerned that staff would have to reapply for their jobs and, if successful, workers would retain their pay levels only until the current enterprise agreement runs out in 2016.
Safer passage, at last VicRoads regional director Adam Maguire said the new technology provided a safer crossing, free from conflicts with other road users. Other improvements include new signs and line-marking, green bike lanes and skid-resistant asphalt resurfacing. “The new signalised intersection will also benefit drivers, with the new line-marking and resurfacing making driving through the intersection safer and clearer,” Mr Maguire said. Maribyrnong mayor Nam Quach said safer bike routes should help encourage more people to take up cycling. “Traffic lights installed at the intersection of Whitehall and Parker Streets … will greatly improve pedestrian, cyclist and motorist safety at this very busy crossing,” he said.

Maribyrnong’s most dangerous intersection should be safer now with new bike priority lights switched on at Footscray’s Whitehall and Parker streets. About 1100 cyclists pass through the intersection each day – close to 200 every hour during peak periods. They used to battle to cross a road used by about 16,000 vehicles, including more than 4000 trucks, each weekday. The intersection has been the scene of 14 serious crashes in the five years to last June, four involving cyclists. Maribyrnong council and Greens MP Colleen Hartland have lobbied hard to have the lights installed at this critical point of the main route for western suburbs cyclists travelling into the city. New detectors have been installed in the Parker Street bike lanes and cyclists can also press a button for the cyclist signals, gaining a jump-start on other vehicles.

Colombia with pizzazz The sultry sounds of Colombian music are stirring the blood out west this month. West Footscray singer Iaki Vallejo (pictured) is presenting her show Bolero at Nuevo Latino Los Rodriguez each Saturday night. “I’m going to play a range of music, based on the music of Colombia but bringing in other styles as well,” Vallejo said. She grew up with Afro-Latino music as a central part of life. It spilled out of every home and on to the streets of her Colombian neighbourhood. Her father loved tango, her mother bolero and her brother loved ballads and salsa.
Her own music combines elements of each of these, along with influences picked up living in Spain and Italy. Now calling West Footscray home, Iaki has been working on recording a new album with renowned percussionist David Jones. “I’m including some of my own songs in the album, along with traditional Afro-Colombian melodies,” she said. Iaki Vallejo will perform at Nuevo Latino Los Rodriguez from 8pm on February 14, 21 and 28. Details are at www.facebook.com/ nuevolatinolosrodriguez. Benjamin Millar

Height cap challenged
Retirement led to drugs, jail
By Goya Dmytryshchak The part-owner of the Port Phillip Woollen Mill, Williamstown’s largest private land holding, has queried Labor’s ability to deliver on its pre-election pledge to restrict high-rise development on the site. As exclusively reported by Star Weekly Weekly, Williamstown MP Wade Noonan vowed the state government would approve any planning scheme amendment put forward by Hobsons Bay council to limit high-rise development to eight storeys on 60 per cent of the mill site, which could house about 2000 people. But part-owner Ashley Williams, Evolve Development managing director, questioned whether the council could wind back planning policy. He said he was willing to negotiate with the council, dangling carrots such as not demolishing the historic Nugget factory, making contributions for infrastructure and providing community spaces. Mr Williams said he had spent three years and close to $2 million successfully appealing all of the council’s refusals in the Victorian Civil and Administrative Planning Tribunal (VCAT). “My understanding is that the council have to have some due consideration of the subsequent VCAT matters and look at the bigger picture before they jump at just a single-line planning scheme amendment,� he said. “In my opinion, it’s unfortunate that a local member would get so committed to a position that isn’t necessarily based on a detailed understanding of the planning history that’s gone before.� Mr Williams said VCAT costs and building delays added to pressure to get more dwellings on the site.
Ashley Williams queries Labor’s pre-poll pledges on the Williamstown mill site. (Damjan Janevski)
He said reducing the height or putting a blanket height on buildings on the site could lead to other problems for residents or objectors. “A reduction in height in a certain area could lead to an increase in density in other parts of the site,� he said. “What we’ve tried to express to council is that if you compress or cap the height in certain places, that might actually result in an overall bigger number of dwellings.� Mr Noonan also vowed a Labor government
would order an inquiry into appropriate buffer distances between residential development and major hazard facilities (MHFs). The mill site is next to Mobil’s Point Gellibrand tank farm, which is classified as a MHF. Mr Williams said he had demonstrated to VCAT that his past applications complied with all the required rules and regulations. “I don’t think those are issues that are really relevant in future applications,� he said.

A 70-year-old Maribyrnong man has been sentenced to 14 months’ jail for growing commercial quantities of cannabis at two Sunshine North properties. Max Corbell pleaded guilty in the County Court to cultivating narcotic plants in a commercial quantity, theft of electricity and cultivation of narcotic plants. The court hearing followed a six-month police investigation. Two unoccupied units at Mansfield Avenue, Sunshine North, owned by Corbell and his wife were put under police surveillance in July 2013 after electricity provider Powercor notified authorities that the two properties were “consuming excessive electricity ‌â€? The court was told surveillance revealed Corbell and his co-accused, Romano and Suzanne Falzon, were frequently spotted at the properties. Police raided them in December 2013 and seized 92 cannabis plants weighing more than 34 kilograms, an electrical bypass in the roof space of both properties and other items associated with hydroponic operations. County Court Judge David Parsons said Corbell, who had held jobs at Telstra and the Allied Flour Mills during his working life, had struggled with feelings of inadequacy and had not adjusted to his new life when he retired at 67. He fined Corbell $200 and sentenced him to 14 months’ jail with an eight month non-parole period.

The Pelican is flying... today’s edition is the final Pelican Post. But there’s good news - the weekly one pager will be replaced by an eight page quarterly newsletter delivered to residents’ doors and available at libraries.
Too many butts on the beach?
It’s farewell from the Pelican Post After almost ten years of flying high, it is time to bid a fond farewell to the Pelican Post.
24 February, 6:30pm to 8pm - Altona Library 26 February, 2pm to 3.30pm - Williamstown Library
Did you know it is illegal to smoke on the beach? The ban protects beach users from second hand smoke and reduces young people’s exposure to smoking. What’s more, cigarette butts create litter that impacts the experience of beachgoers and is harmful to our environment.
Do you have any old photos, videos or memories? Join us for a hands-on workshop where you will learn how the world looks today, compared to how it used to look using the historypin website. We’ll help you get started on preserving your images and stories. Bookings: http:// libraries.hobsonsbay.vic.gov.au or 1300 HOB LIB.
Council is conducting cigarette butt audits across hotspot locations throughout Hobsons Bay. The team were at Altona beach last week counting littered butts along the beach and foreshore area, and the results will help develop an awareness raising campaign to reduce cigarette litter across Hobsons Bay.
Council meetings
This all ties in nicely with Australia’s largest annual community-based event: Clean Up Australia Day, taking place on Sunday 1 March. To register a site or to join in an existing clean up, go to www.cleanupaustraliaday.org.au

Brooklyn dog park The location for Hobsons Bay’s first fenced dog park has been unleashed. The dog park will run alongside the Federation Trail in the section opposite D N Duane Reserve, Brooklyn. Currently in the design stage, the draft concept plan is now available for viewing on Council’s website under Major Projects. Feedback can be provided online. A drop-in session will be held onsite on 23 February from 4pm to 6pm, with access available from Duane Reserve.
Altona Meadows Occasional Care Do you have preschool children and would like some time for yourself, or some play time for your children? Altona Meadows Occasional Care operates from Altona Meadows Community Centre on Thursday and Friday mornings from 8.45am to 12.45pm during school term. Bookings for children from birth to five years can be made per term, or casually week to week. For more information call Sharon McGrath Children’s Services Coordinator on 9932 1532.
During this time the Pelican has witnessed and reported on a number of great projects and events in Hobsons Bay; from the construction and openings of the Altona Meadows, Altona North, and Williamstown libraries, to the historic unearthing of an underground artillery battery during construction of the Williamstown Cricket Ground pavilion. The Pelican has also been a great way for us to inform and engage with the community on projects and planning for Hobsons Bay. Your feedback has been invaluable in helping us determine the future of our great municipality. In 2013 you helped us name the brand new multi purpose facility in Laverton – now known as the Laverton Community Hub. This new name was announced in the first edition of Around the Bay, a supplement to the Pelican Post appearing the first Wednesday of every month. While the Pelican Post has focussed on community projects and events, Around the Bay has concentrated on providing updates on construction projects, roadworks, and capital works. So where to from here? We want to ensure that we reach as many of our residents as possible. So Around the Bay will continue, but the Pelican Post will be replaced with a quarterly newsletter which will be delivered to all residents in Hobsons Bay. This eight page newsletter will provide greater focus and information on events, projects, community activities and initiatives. The newsletter will also be available at the libraries, community centres, and a selection of local cafes and businesses. So keep a lookout for the newsletter in your letterbox in the very near future.

Anger as more beach pines fall By Goya Dmytryshchak Vandals have destroyed two young Norfolk pines on the Altona foreshore, raising speculation among residents that the trees may have been torn down to improve views. Others believe the tree destruction may have been an act of wanton vandalism. Former mayor and Hobsons Bay Residents Association co-convenor Tony Briffa was dismayed after discovering the trees on Sunday morning. “I was extremely saddened to see trees destroyed at the beach,” he said. “It’s a
completely senseless act. Trees like these take years to grow and are a much-loved and important community asset. “While there has been speculation that nearby residents have destroyed trees to maintain their views, I really don’t think that’s the case in this instance.” In late 2013, vandals destroyed newly planted Norfolk pines at Altona beach for the second year in a row, presumably to enable better views of the bay. The council erected a large board at the site of one of the vandalised tree that states: “Tree vandals have been destroying your
“Not only do these trees provide valuable shade but they are also valued by the community as a key part of our coastal neighbourhood’s character,” she said. The Norfolk pines along the Esplanade are of local historic and aesthetic significance to the Altona neighbourhood, according to the council’s heritage advisers. “These vandalised young trees will be replaced,” Cr Wilson said. “If anyone observes damage to ratepayer assets such as our park and street trees they should let council know. “This incident was reported using the smartphone application Snap Send Solve.”
environment.” The sign, which remains in place, is designed to block the view the perpetrator stood to benefit from. Some residents have complained the board is not big enough and there should be tougher deterrents, such as high fines or the planting of two trees for every one destroyed. Last year, Williamstown and Newport residents were angered after trees were ringbarked and poisoned. The residents demanded the council impose stronger deterrents. Hobsons Bay mayor Sandra Wilson said tree vandalism was disappointing and thoughtless.
Bliss for Laneway lovers The Laneway Festival cemented its place as one of the hottest tickets on the summer calendar during its return to Footscray on Saturday. A sell-out crowd of 15,000 people enjoyed a stellar line-up of local and international acts performing a diverse range of music. Early highlights included the southern-fried folk-hop of Raury, the moody post-punk of Eagulls and the loping rap of Ratking. Benjamin Booker won the crowd over with his shameless rock ‘n’ roll, while Vic Mensa brought plenty of swagger to the stage. Mac DeMarco made his summer sounds look deceptively simple as local psychedelic heroes Pond raised a cheer with some mid-song crowd-surfing. Royal Blood’s bass-and-drums attack and the emotion-charged Future Islands kept the rock vein flowing, but electronic acts were evening highlights thanks to superb sets from Jon Hopkins, Caribou and Flying Lotus.
Once again, Laneway showed female artists are breaking new ground, whether it be the futuristic R&B of FKA Twigs or the art rock weirdness of St Vincent. View the picture gallery at www. maribyrnong.starweekly.com.au. Benjamin Millar

Family aids VCE success Educational success depends on many things, not least of which is the support of loved ones. Paige Toner says she has been blessed with tremendous help from her family, including her mother who spent 90 minutes each day driving her between Altona and Sunbury Downs College. That and Ms Toner’s own commitment to excellence, contributed to her achieving a tertiary entrance rank of 97.1 and being named dux of the school. She has also had a media project selected for the National Gallery of Victoria’s prestigious VCE Top Arts exhibition, which starts in March. The 18-year-old from Altona was presented with the award at a ceremony last week. She was one of four Sunbury Downs students to break the 90-point mark. ‘‘We moved to Altona at the end of year 7. I was in the ACE [accelerated learning] program at Sunbury Downs, I liked the school and had already made friends, so I was lucky that my mum was happy to drive me every day.’’ Ms Toner, who attended Goonawarra Primary School, says her score came as a surprise. ‘‘I couldn’t believe it. After my exams, I had done all these calculations and my ‘holy grail’ score was 93.’’ Straight A-pluses in her year 12 subjects, including media, global politics, legal studies, maths and English, contributed to her outstanding result. Ms Toner says she managed to balance her study schedule with a healthy social life. ‘‘I was under the impression that to do really well you had to have a really strict timetable, but I didn’t do that.’’

Yarraville village hosts its festival this Sunday. (Benjamin Millar)
Festival fever for Yarraville
PAIGE TONER
She did spend a lot of time swotting with classmates over Skype and admitted to having a legal studies poster on the bathroom door. Ms Toner, who is about to start a bachelor of arts degree at Melbourne University, says she hasn’t settled on a particular career but could see herself working in international diplomacy.
‘‘I would love to have a job where I can travel,’’ she says. Her advice for students entering year 12 this year? ‘‘Just make sure you do your best. You only get one chance and you’d hate to look back and regret something.’’
The biggest event on Yarraville’s calendar happens this Sunday. Organisers of the ever-growing Yarraville Festival have been putting the finishing touches on a schedule jam-packed with events for all ages. Maribyrnong council volunteer of the year Megan Darling said she had been working to ensure that the festival built on the “buzz” which drew thousands to the streets of Yarraville last year. A number of lead-up events will be held throughout the week, starting last night with FlikFest film screenings and continuing with the I {heart} Yarraville Fashion Parade on Wednesday night, a Yarraville soiree at the Corner Shop on Thursday, and a ‘Sun Sessions’ evening of entertainment by Sun Theatre on Friday night. Walking tours and the Fly Factory Trapeze will begin Saturday before the festival proper arrives on Sunday. Benjamin Millar

“It was a vicious assault and won’t be tolerated in this country,” Mr C. Vaughan, JP, said in Footscray Court on Monday when fining a new Australian £25 for kicking a young salesman in the groin. Through in interpreter, Joe Wawroski, labourer, of Newport, admitted the assault, but said he believed it was under “severe provocation.” Peter Andrew Stevens, formerly of Williamstown and now living at Glen Iris, said he had difficulty walking for about three days after the assault.
An upsurge of backyard slaughtering of animals is taking place in the Footscray district. And strong warnings about the danger to health have been issued by city health inspector Mr F. Fathers and Cr M. Harris. Mr Fathers said people eating meat that had not been examined by a qualified meat inspector ran the risk of contracting hydatid or tuberculosis.
Altona council is pleased with allocations totalling $194,000 announced last week under the Australian government’s area improvement program. The grant, announced by the Urban and Regional Development Minister Tom Uren, provides for expenditure of $85,000 for beach improvements and $46,000 for improvements to the Cherry Lake area. The mayor, Cr Ian Stewart, said the allocations were in line with council’s works program and its application to the government.
Williamstown could cut its municipal rates by more than six cents in the dollar and maintain its present spending if it received rates for properties in the municipality owned by the Australian and Victorian governments. The current rate is 26 cents in the dollar based on net annual value (average annual payment of $119.60). This could be cut to 19.72 cents in the dollar – a reduction of $28.89 on an average annual payment.

Displaying a style both modern and classic, this three-bedroom house is a renovation done well. The downstairs area is open plan, with polished floorboards tying the family-meals, kitchen and lounge area together. High ceilings, a light colour palette and honey-coloured floorboards create bright and warm living spaces. All three bedrooms have walk-in wardrobes; the main (up a stylish metal spiral staircase) is serviced by a semi-en suite. The kitchen has timber benchtops that tie in with the floorboards, a wall oven, gas cooktop and fixed rangehood. Bifold doors open from the family-meals area onto a back deck and a spa amid low-maintenance garden is a treat. A short walk from The Strand, train station, shops and schools, this property will appeal to devotees of the finer life who want all the hard work over and done with.
Thanks to polished floorboards, high ceilings and large windows, this house delivers a strong sense of spaciousness and is an example of when “less is sometimes more”. Upstairs, two of the three bedrooms have built-in wardrobes; the main has a walk-in and en suite. The en suite and main bathroom have raised vanity basins. The kitchen has the full range of mod-cons: stainless-steel dishwasher, 900mm upright oven with gas hobs, and slide out rangehood, along with plenty of storage space, glass splashback, stone benchtops and breakfast bar. The large family-meals area is great for entertainment, with the separate lounge room a cosy place to relax. A decked outdoor area links with these two rooms through glass sliding doors. A short drive to North Williamstown train station, shops schools and parks, this property could appeal to people who like living in style.

Price: $700,000 – $770,000
Auction: February 28 at 1pm
This tidy single-fronted house may look prim and proper on the outside, but inside it displays a good degree of flair. Polished floorboards, high ceilings, lovely windows and modern fittings could make this house one of broad appeal. Both of the bedrooms, decently sized, have a fireplace and are serviced by the bathroom at the rear. The family-meal area and adjoining lounge zone provide sufficient space to relax. The modern-styled kitchen includes stainless-steel underbench oven, gas cooktop and rangehood. The low-maintenance backyard means new owners won’t be spending all their downtime pulling out weeds. It’s handy to beach, botanical gardens and The Strand and Williamstown Beach train station is a short walk away. Location, style and class translate to a ‘watch-this-space’ property.
On about 650 square metres, this Edwardian house offers a great combination of size, space and location in one of Melbourne’s top 100 streets. With plenty of potential for those looking to renovate or redevelop, subject to council approval, the house provides a solid base. All three large bedrooms have built-in wardrobes, and fireplaces with period feature tiles. An additional room towards the end of the main hallway could be used as a study or additional bedroom; it’s opposite a large lounge room also with fireplace. The main family-meals area is the hub of the residence, with kitchen and separate dining room adjoining. The garage at the back provides secure off-street parking for one vehicle, with rear access via a laneway. Within a short walk of schools, North Williamstown train station, and The Strand and beach only a short drive away, this redevelopment/renovation opportunity is bound to attract attention.

SPORT Struggling dogs cling to finals hopes In between, it was the Kight show, as he drove his first century of the summer. Kight has consistently been getting starts this season, but this was the first time he had taken the game by the scruff of the neck. It might have come just in the nick of time as his side tries valiantly to stay in the finals race. The Hawks had no hiccups in the final three overs, going to stumps on 0-5. In sub-district cricket, the race for spots in the north-west group finals is heating up and Williamstown wants to be part of the action. The seventh-placed Seagulls are fighting against top side Melton, posting 242 on the back of big scores from Craig Sheedy (76) and Cameron Smith (69). Altona’s chances of a home final took a blow
with arch-rivals Werribee taking the upper hand on day one. The A’s were bowled out for just 127 and the visitors were in charge at 1-40. Yarraville did a good containing job on Coburg, keeping them to 9-194 off 80 overs. The Eagles, led by three wickets to Patrick Prestidge, should have no trouble saluting in import Harry Finch’s last game for the club. In the VTCA, Yarraville Club showed its batting might to post 8-319 against Airport West-St Christophers in the senior division. The Clubbers had four players raise their bats at the half-century mark: Justin Baker (72), Aaron Mato (63), Ben Pope (63) and Andrew Cullen (52). Lance Jenkinson
Rebel’s Super challenge By Lance Jenkinson Footscray prop Cruze Ah-Nau will grab his second and possibly last chance at professional rugby with both hands. Ah-Nau has travelled a long and bumpy road to finally get the security of a long-term professional contract with the Melbourne Rebels and is not about to let another opportunity slip. “I’m really delighted,” he said. “For me and my family, it was a goal for 2015 to do that … I was lucky enough to get it nice and early on. “They had a chat with me and said they wanted to sign me for a few more years … for them to do that, I was very humbled and happy to confirm that I would stay for another couple of years.” Ah-Nau, a Perth native, was widely seen as one of the most promising youngsters to come out of the Western Force Academy. He went on to play for Australia’s under-20 side but disappointingly never made an impression with the Force in Super Rugby. He was simply not ready for life as a full-time professional sportsman. “I was much younger then and had a lot to learn,” he said. “I probably got a bit complacent and took it for granted.” When Ah-Nau was chopped by the Force, he could have recoiled back to a comfortable life among family and friends in his hometown or he could have left his comfort zone and pursued a rugby career elsewhere. With the support of wife Sophie and children Tyrell, 6, and Jai, 3, Ah-Nau travelled east in search of a rugby lifeline. He landed at Norths in the strong Sydney club rugby competition and got to work – both as a footballer and in the nine-to-five grind. “Moving to Sydney and playing semiprofessional rugby was a learning curve for me,” Ah-Nau said. “I was working full-time, digging holes for a living and sort of learning the hard way. “I learned a lot there playing against professional rugby players every week. “Just having the drive of my family behind me and knowing the hard yards that I’ve done … I look back at that all of the time and don’t forget it.” The Rebels scouts liked what they saw in Ah-Nau and brought him to Melbourne, where he linked up with Footscray in the VRU. He watched the Rebels play on a Friday night before donning the Bulldogs’ tricolours on a Saturday and continuing to impress. Ah-Nau broke into the Rebels team last season, playing 11 games for two starts. “I knew that once I got my opportunity, I had to take it with both hands,” he said. Ah-Nau was glad to have landed at Footscray, the club making the transition to Melbourne a lot easier.
IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ Interesting
to hear from one reader that parents and grandparents are being charged to watch the kids at Werribee swimming pool on school sports days. They’re not there to swim, they’re there to support their families and help out, and this is so wrong. In a society where we continually tell children to exercise and participate, the one thing that helps that is the support of relatives and friends. We all understand running costs, but surely if relatives are only taking up space they should not be charged. What’s next? Will we be charged to barrack for the kids when they play footy or cricket on council ovals? I think this is an area the council should address immediately. Common sense should prevail.
■ I’ll
be very interested to see how Hoppers Crossing and Werribee cricket clubs fare in their quests to become Melbourne’s next Premier Cricket Club. Both have reached the next stage of submissions. The bottom line is that the City of Wyndham deserves to have a club in this competition for a variety of reasons. Those not directly involved with either club will be happy with whichever gets the nod, although there are other equally deserving applicants.
■ Lots
of events are going on in the west this weekend. The 14th annual Peter Bunworth Memorial Day will be held at Wyndhamvale Reserve from 11am this Sunday. Bunny was a ripper bloke and Sunday’s cricket match for over-35s is a fitting tribute to him and his family, who are still actively involved in local footy and cricket. Williamstown Cricket Club has a big day this Friday for its president’s lunch, starring Brian Taylor, Cameron Ling and John Hastings at the Yarraville Club from 1-4pm. Call Phil McTaggart, 0416 023 739, or Geoff Hart, 0414 575 431. Tickets are $110 a head.

Footscray Football Club is celebrating its 80th birthday with a big night at its home in Hansen Reserve, West Footscray, on March 28.

Bulldogs coaches Junior Naufahu and Nic Henderson, a former Rebel, have been huge factors in his development. “They’ve helped me heaps,” Ah-Nau said of his local club. “The boys in general, they’ve all got my back and they all look after each other. There’s a good culture down there.” Despite being from interstate, Ah-Nau wants to see rugby union thrive in Victoria. He loves the fact all the Rebels players get back to
grassroots clubs, help with coaching and act as role models for young players. “If we can help them out any way we can, that’s our goal – to grow Victorian rugby and make sure we’re got more Victorians playing for the Melbourne Rebels,” he said. Ah-Nau is making a push to be part of the Rebels’ 23-man squad for Friday night’s season-opening clash against the Canterbury Crusaders in Christchurch.

Sitting in 11th place, six points outside Victorian Premier Cricket’s top eight, was not the summer plan of defending champions Footscray Edgewater. But the weekend showed there is fight in the old dogs yet. The Bulldogs won’t abandon the finals chase, entering day two of their clash with Hawthorn-Monash University at the Merv Hughes Oval on Saturday in a strong position. A glorious century from wicketkeeperbatsman Dylan Kight (120 not out) led the Bulldogs to a commanding 8-326 declared. Openers James Crosthwaite (46) and Dean Russ (40) laid the foundations with an 84-run stand, while a late flurry from Lucas Dredge (31 not out) pushed the Bulldogs beyond 300.

SPORT MARIBYRNONG.STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
Newport rams it home By Lance Jenkinson Newport Rams preserved its division 1 status in Baseball Victoria’s summer league at the expense of western rivals Williamstown Wolves. The Rams survived a heart-stopper to win 4-2 in extra innings at Greenwich Reserve on Sunday to retain a top-flight place next season. It was a euphoric day for the Rams, completing a 3-0 series sweep over their neighbours this summer. “It was crucial for us not to give half a chance of being relegated,” Rams assistant coach Gavin Young told Star Weekly. “It was like a grand final in a sense for both sides so to come out on top was a big thing.” Heath Black had a 10th inning to remember for the Rams. The veteran broke up the scoreboard parity with a single on a ground ball to left field to score Scott and Troy Malthouse. Black then put the finishing touch on the last out, getting under a fly ball in right field. Young was full of praise for Black, who finished with a three-hit game. “He’s an old head at the club, a guy that comes to every training session. He’s there at every game and just plays his heart out,” Young said. The Rams made 13 hits, including three each to Black, Troy Malthouse, Zac Seipolt and Jeremy Young. And the pitching crew did well to keep the strong Wolves line-up to two runs. Griffin Weir had a short four-innings but finished with five strike outs. Andy Radevski faced two batters before Jeremy Young closed the final innings. Newport can now enjoy the final two games, starting with Sunday’s trip to Cheltenham. Williamstown will be merely playing for pride at Upwey-Ferntree Gully.

Williamstown’s Richard Green and his Norwegian fiancee, Marianne Skarpnord, claimed a rare golfing double at the 2015 Oates Victorian Open at Thirteenth Beach Golf Links on Sunday, each also winning their respective sections. Green, 43, overcame South Australia’s Nick Cullen in a thrilling two-hole playoff to be crowned champion after the pair finished level on a score of 272 (-16). The icing on the cake for Green was Skarpnord taking out the women’s title with a score of 13 under par from Su Oh and Holly Clyburn (both -10).

Williamstown’s other stand-out performers were Celeste Mucci, who placed in all four of her events, including victory in the U-18 high jump, Cosimo Mucci, second in the U-18 200m, Rhiannon Wood, third in the U-18 triple jump and Sweeney Preston, third in the U-18 400m.

Altona split rinks with Mentone in Bowls Victoria’s premier division on Saturday but lost by a narrow three shots overall. The A’s will be keen to recapture their winning form when they host MCC Kew Sports on Saturday. Heath Black came up with the match-winning hit for Newport Rams in the derby. (Shawn Smits)

Young Falcons hold their own for season opener City West Falcons coach Marg Lind was buoyed by the first-up showing of her new-look team in the Victorian Netball League championship division. The Falcons went in as the “unknown quantity” of the competition and made a positive start with a win and a draw in a double-header round of games. The Falcons, last year’s runners-up, were forced to compete with an inexperienced line-up, with Melbourne Vixens-aligned stars Chloe Watson and Emily Mannix unavailable due to Summer Shootout pre-season commitments. The young Falcons did not look out of place. “When you see where other teams are at, I thought we physically looked really good,” Lind said. “We looked quite prepared compared to
some other clubs and that was the pleasing thing.” The Falcons opened their account with a 48-48 draw with Melbourne University Lightning at the State Netball and Hockey Centre on Saturday night. The outcome could have been a whole lot better had they not blown a 13-goal half-time lead. “We gave a couple of young kids a go at half-time … you really don’t know how it’s going to go,” Lind said. “I think our girls relaxed a bit and allowed them to get some momentum and get back into the game. “We only had three players from last year’s line-up on the court.” The Falcons had a quick turnaround to their next game, which started at 11.40am on
Sunday, a mere 16 hours after they stepped off the court for their season opener. It was probably a good thing, too. Smarting from their blown lead the night before, they came out firing to beat Monash University Storm 50-39. “They’re a good team Monash and they’re not to be underestimated,” Lind said. “It made us more determined to go out and get a tough win because of the night before – we didn’t want to go a loss and a draw.” In an indicator of what a close competition may lie ahead, none of the 10 sides managed to claim two wins from the double-header round. So the Falcons are perched in the top two, where they spent all of last season before losing in the grand final. Stephanie Tyrell made an impressive debut for the Falcons at
goal attack and is expected to form a strong attacking circle combination with sharpshooter Kath Knott. “She’s quick and she’s good at finding small spaces,” Lind said of Tyrell. “It’s a combination that’s going to grow. Demi Woodlock, who missed a year with illness, shone on return, while Maggie Lind carried over her strong form from last season. Lind was excited to see the division 1 and 19-and-under teams go undefeated across the weekend. The Falcons are in a transition period after losing so many players to the national league. Their young players will be fast-tracked to compete for championship positions in the near future. Lance Jenkinson

Import earns his keep By Lance Jenkinson It has been a short but mutually beneficial relationship between English import Harry Finch and on-the-rise cricket club Yarraville. Finch will play his final game for the Eagles this weekend to return for county cricket duty with Sussex, leaving the club in a better position than he found it. The Eagles are on the verge of breaking into the north-west group finals this season and Finch’s influence can’t be understated. He thrashed out 365 runs at 52.1 leading into his final match to go with a tidy 11 wickets at 20 on the comeback trail from injury. The 20-year-old , who celebrated his birthday yesterday, made back-to-back tons for the first time in his career in rounds five and six and snared six wickets against top side Melton last month. His impressive numbers come from limited appearances after his arrival in Australia was delayed by a troublesome ankle, causing him to miss the first two matches. Finch has loved his time with the Eagles, but has bigger fish to fry as he tries to elevate into Sussex’s top side, one that is flush with international-calibre players, such as Chris Jordan, Matt Prior, Luke Wright, Ed Joyce and
Ajmal Shahzad. Finch leaves the Eagles at the pointy end of the season. “I’ll definitely be following the scores, tweeting and, if we win it, I’ll have a beer back home,” Finch said. “We’ve got a very good squad.” Finch’s influence at Yarraville Oval is not only measured in runs and wickets. There are big expectations on an import to set the example at training and be a role model for younger players. It’s easy to forget that Finch started the summer as a teenager, but he was exemplary, motivated both on a personal and club level. A bit over a year ago, he had his first pre-season tour with Sussex to Dubai, where he learnt from teammates who had already played cricket at the highest level. It was a tour where Finch felt he belonged at the top, scoring 62 not out in a Twenty20 game where he faced spin superstar Muttiah Muralitharan. Finch wants to follow in the footsteps of his Sussex teammates to become a permanent fixture in a first-class side and push for higher honours down the track. Such is his dedication, he largely avoided the Melbourne night life, though enjoyed what it had to offer in the daylight hours.
“It’s a great place, there’s stuff going on all the time. But at the end of the day, it’s my job, it’s not like I’m coming out here to party. “I’ve got to try and get myself fit before I go back, so I can’t enjoy myself too much during the week.” That’s why he saw this pre-season in Australia as critical to his summer back in England. He missed the back end of his last English campaign after going under the knife for an ankle operation. Since the operation, he’s had a clean bill of health, but Finch isn’t getting complacent. “Touch wood,” he was quick to respond when asked about his injury-free season with the Eagles. “I got injured twice last English season. I came out and bowled and got injured again and, before you know it, it’s the end of the season. “It’s nice to be putting in performances with both bat and ball.” Australian club cricket was an eye-opening experience for Finch, who will certainly leave with a thicker skin than he had before he arrived. “I’ve never played in a more competitive club standard,” he said. Finch said the highlight of his stay was a stirring win over Brunswick in December.
Footscray Cycling Club was back on Altona’s Drake Boulevard for the first race in the four-race Form700 Super Series. While the previous week’s start to race one was washed out, it was a relief for riders to race in perfect conditions – the overcast, cool conditions were reflected in a high race-pace in all grades. The A-grade race had the added incentive of racing for the honour of winning the club’s legends race, and club champion Dom Dudkiewicz took the coveted sash and 10 series points. Dudkiewicz formed a six-man breakaway with Matty Heath, Alister Tubb, veteran racer Geordie Probert, Andrew Bonello and Miles DaCosta, who absolutely blew the bunch apart. They built an unassailable 80-second lead that left the rest of A-grade licking their wounds and sitting back for the rest of the race. The B-grade battle was a pacy affair but lacked the usual attacking moves. Johann Birk used his power to take a strong win from the unlucky Antonio Marino and guest rider Scott Brown. Like the feature race, C-grade was dominated by an early break when Mark Micallef set off up the road with Josh Toohey, eventual winner Vlad Djuric and two other riders. But, after a long stint out in front, the bunch reeled the boys back in. The final bunch sprint was taken by Djuric after an early jump gave him a small gap from the fast-finishing Toohey and Andrew Leighton. First-time racer Luca Tarticchio beat fellow newcomer Andrew Spilsbury and Jason Hobbs in D-grade, while new member Aprille McMahon won the women’s race over Jenny Miller and Tamara Riddell.
