Charity account drained By Goya Dmytryshchak
Rhett and Harry are the victims of an online fraud. (Damjan Janevski)
When we all remembered . . . Hobsons Bay and Maribyrnong residents turned out in force for Anzac Day marches and services to remember Australians who lost their lives in war. Williamstown and Altona RSLs held marches on Sunday and dawn services on Monday, followed by a traditional gunfire breakfast and a game of two-up. Spotswood-Kingsville RSL joined Newport RSL for a march to the Mason Street cenotaph, while a march and service from Footscray took participants down Geelong Road to the war memorial in Footscray Park before returning to the RSL for a midday service. ■ Anzac Day in pictures: Pages 10 and 11

Harry said he couldn’t comprehend how someone could steal the money. “I just don’t really understand how someone could live with themselves after doing it,” he said. “Stealing all up is bad, but stealing someone’s money that they have worked for is even worse.” But Harry is not letting the setback stop him. On April 30, at 1.30pm, he will shave his head to look like Rhett at a fundraising event to be held at Eyecare Plus in Altona North. All money raised and any future donations will now go into a secure bank account with funds to be handed directly to Rhett’s mother. The hacked gofundme page, called Raise for Rhett, was still online yesterday despite Ms Smedley’s attempts to have it taken down. Star Weekly contacted gofundme, which is investigating.

Thieves have used a stolen identity to empty an online fundraising account for a Williamstown North boy with a brain tumour. Two-year-old Rhett has a rare aggressive grade four cancer. Following 12 operations, 80 per cent of the tumour has been removed but he still faces ongoing surgery and hospital care. Williamstown North resident Nicole Smedley said her 13-year-old son, Harry, established a gofundme account for family friend Rhett after learning about his illness. Harry raised about $2000 before Ms Smedley received an email she thought was from gofundme, which requested personal details for authorisation as her son was under-age. She provided her name, address and date of birth but became suspicious after receiving a further email requesting photo identification. It was then she contacted Rhett’s mother, Nicole Bell, to check she had been receiving donations. Ms Bell discovered that all donations made over a two-week period – about $600 – had not been received and were presumably diverted to an unknown bank account. “Those professional crooks have figured out you’re vulnerable,” Ms Bell said. “Anybody who is in this situation, who’s going through a terminal illness or illness of any sort, is vulnerable at that point and they’ve preyed upon that. “It makes me sick. “You just get really angry and then I think, OK, but I don’t want them to win against me emotionally. “Let’s fight back and be better than that.”

Maribyrnong sticks to rate cap By Benjamin Millar A 2.5 per cent rate rise for Maribyrnong ratepayers will help fund the $138 million budget proposed for 2016-17. Maribyrnong council last week endorsed a draft budget that raises almost $91 million in rates and charges. Key projects proposed for funding include completion of the $12.9 million Little Saigon Project and Saigon Welcome Arch, $8 million on roads, $4.6 million on footpaths and cycleways, $970,000 to renew nine reserves
and open spaces, $840,000 for the Footscray Hockey Club and $500,000 for tree planting. The budget includes $36 million for capital works and infrastructure and will include completion of the Nicholson Street mall project in Footscray. The council’s budget would cut debt from $2.7 million to $1.8 million by the end of the 2016-17 financial year. Maribyrnong pensioners will be eligible for a $181.70 rate rebate, the highest in Melbourne. The council has headed off a potential clash with residents by electing not to apply for a rate
increase above the 2.5 per cent cap imposed by the state government for 2016-17 under its Fair Go Rates System. The cap will cost the council an estimated $1 million in revenue in the first year and more than $86 million over a decade. Chief executive Stephen Wall last month told the state government Standing Committee on the Economy and Infrastructure that rate capping could affect council services. “As CEO of the council I am doing my utmost to make sure that we can continue to deliver all the services that we can, but clearly
there are going to be some financial challenges before council over the next number of years,” he said. Mayor Cameron McDonald said the proposed budget shows the council has a focus on “business as usual”. The proposed budget 2016-17 is available at the council offices, community centres, libraries and the council’s website: www. maribyrnong.vic.gov.au Written submissions must be received by May 27 and the final budget will be considered for adoption on June 14.
Housing plan for school site Plans are afoot for a former Altona North school site to be sold for a residential development of up to four storeys. The Department of Education and Training wants the former Altona Gate primary school site in Blackshaws Road rezoned to ‘residential growth’, allowing for housing of up to four floors. The 2.4-hectare site takes up a block bounded by Blackshaws Road and Misten, Rosala and Glade avenues. Department spokesman Alex Munro said consideration was given to projected population and student growth before any school site was declared surplus. “An independent technical report commissioned to determine the right zone found that . . . residential growth zoning was most suitable,” he said. “Before any site is sold, the department ensures demographic factors and community views are considered, and the current rezoning process is part of public consultation.” An advisory committee has been appointed to make a recommendation on the proposed rezoning of the land, paving the way for its sale. Written submissions can be made until May 27. And an information session will be held at Hobsons Bay Civic Centre in Altona from 6.30pm on May 4. As the rezoning issues arise, the department is facing opposition to selling part of the Altona P-9 College site in Grieve Parade for residential development. But the department has confirmed it will retain the site of the former Eastona Park primary in Collins Avenue, Altona North, allowing for a school to be built if population grows.

Fireys pumped up for birthday bash The Fire Services Museum of Victoria will mark the 125th anniversary of the MFB by opening the doors of its Newport workshop museum next month. The Champion Road workshop houses a selection of vintage fire trucks, painstakingly restored by volunteers and retired firefighters. MFB chief officer Peter Rau says dozens of fire appliances used by the MFB and CFA over the past century will be displayed. They
will include horse-drawn carriages, ladder platforms and pumpers. “MFB is proud to be celebrating 125 years of serving Melbourne so we’re inviting the community to join us to see the evolution of our firefighting appliances,” Mr Rau said. “The tireless work of retired firefighters and museum volunteers is to be commended in maintaining this important piece of MFB heritage.
“There are still firefighters in the job today who can remember driving some of these trucks and they will be happy to share their memories with the community who attend.” The open day is May 7, from 10am-4pm, and entry is by gold coin donation.

Truckies bristle at bridge limits By Benjamin Millar
bridge-strengthening less than five years ago. VicRoads regional director Vince Punaro said a limited number of high performance freight vehicles (HPFV) above 68.5 tonnes had been granted a permit to access the West Gate Bridge. “We are assessing the bridge to determine what load limits need to be in place in future,” he said. The assessment is expected to be finished mid-year. Maribyrnong council chief executive Stephen Wall said the heavy vehicle network map, bridge weight limits and predicted future traffic growth to and from the Port of
Transport operators have lashed out at the handling of restrictions on heavy trucks using the West Gate Bridge, claiming the move forces them to use congested inner-west streets. An online map last week released by VicRoads shows 77.5-tonne B-double and 85.5-tonne A-double trucks, which can carry two shipping containers, are restricted from using the bridge but are permitted to travel through Footscray and Yarraville via Whitehall and Francis streets and Williamstown Road. A 68.5-tonne limit on the bridge is in place despite $371 million being spent on
Melbourne would have a major impact on the area. “Increased truck traffic contributes to increased health, environmental and pollution costs and an increased need for road maintenance across our city,” Mr Wall said. Matt Simmons, managing director of Brooklyn-based transport company Rocke Brothers, said the weight limit had “massive consequences” for local operators. “The West Gate Bridge is a critical piece of infrastructure for transport operators moving containers from the west and inner-west,” he said. Rocke currently operates three B-double HPFVs, but for the past 18 months has been
seeking – without success – permits to run an extra 10. Mr Simmons said allowing trucks up to 77.5 tonnes could halve the number of truck trips required for heavy, containerised exports such as grain, timber, sand and paper. The Maribyrnong Truck Action Group has said heavy trucks should be limited to the freeway network. But Mr Simmons said HPFVs were among the safest vehicles on the roads, reducing emissions and the number of truck trips required. He said the Western Distributor would offer a long-term solution from 2022, but in the short term HPFVs should be made exempt from curfews on the roads of the inner- west.
Charity drivers buckle up $4000 through family and friends pretty fast. You can have a maximum of two people in each car because, obviously, they break down left, right and centre, so you’ve got to be able to carry another team in your car. “If the cars do break down they get towed to the next spot for the evening and, hopefully, bandaged up to go again.” Mr Buckle said the two didn’t have a mechanical bone in their bodies but were looking forward to the challenge. “You have to do your part and give a bit back and what better charity than the Cancer Council?” he said.

Fundraising as the Swashbucklers, the couple will attempt to drive more than 3500 kilometres from Mackay to Hobart in their 1993 Holden Commodore station wagon. It’s not a race but a challenge to drive cars worth $1000 or less across some of Australia’s most difficult roads. “We’ve been on the waiting list for five years to do this and because of a team’s late withdrawal we got a spot,” Ms McClenaghan said. “We found a car and raised the minimum

Rebuilt station in for more work By Benjamin Millar
A recipe for Maltese magic
(Shawn Smits)
West Footscray railway station will undergo a dramatic overhaul to accommodate the Melbourne Metro rail project. The station, rebuilt less than three years ago, requires extensive work, including a new passenger platform on the station’s northern side, alterations to the existing station concourse, realigning of regional, suburban and freight tracks, and construction of new tracks. The uncosted works, to begin in 2018, will allow some Sunbury line services to terminate and turn around at West Footscray station. The Melbourne Metro’s twin nine-kilometre tunnels will increase network capacity by taking two of the busiest rail lines out of the City Loop. A Melbourne Metro Rail Authority spokeswoman said works at West Footscray would help 12,000 extra passengers use the new stand-alone Sunbury to Cranbourne-Pakenham line. “The additional platform and track to the north of West Footscray station will service city-bound trains coming from Sunbury in the morning and afternoon peak periods,” she said. “The existing platform one will be used for trains travelling from the city to terminate and commence services at West Footscray station. This will assist trains to run on time.” The works will enable additional trains to run to and from West Footscray station during the morning and afternoon peaks from 2026. The authority spokeswoman said that although detailed Melbourne Metro requirements at West Footscray were not known at the time of the 2013 station rebuild, some future-proofing was incorporated into the design. Minor platform extensions are also likely at Middle Footscray station, but no works are anticipated at Footscray station.
The cooking traditions of Malta are once more being celebrated and families of the west, Maltese and otherwise, are being invited to test their skills in the Maltese Cook-Off. Top honours at last year’s cook-off were claimed by Werribee’s Portelli family. Matriarch Carmen, with son Luke and daughter Annie, won with broad bean soup with fresh cheeselets and prickly pear ice-cream with an almond slice biscuit. “It was an amazing experience,” Carmen said. “It allowed me to be immersed in my culture and hear everyone speaking Maltese around me.” This year’s annual event will be on October 23 in Melbourne at William Angliss Institute.

A place of their own Maribyrnong’s latest skate park has been unveiled as the centrepiece of a new “youth plaza”. The site at Robert Barrett Reserve, outside the Maribyrnong Aquatic Centre, offers a large open surface with skate elements including stone edges and curved steel rails. The project was driven by local skaters who asked for a park of their own because of Maribyrnong’s distance from the skate park at
Yarraville Oval and another at Johnson Reserve in West Footscray. Specialist skate consultants Playce and Baseplate designed the park and refined the details at two consultation sessions with local skaters. The open plaza setting means the site can be used to host events and other activities. Ben Millar

Resident niggle over NBN nodes By Goya Dmytryshchak Williamstown residents are up in arms about “ghastly” green boxes being installed outside homes as part of the federal government’s national broadband network. The nodes, which look like oversized metal lockers, house electrical equipment and are where internet delivery is switched from fibre to copper telephone lines. Federal Gellibrand MP Tim Watts has started a petition to “say no to Malcolm Turnbull’s ugly nodes in Williamstown”.
‘‘
It ruins the look of my home … why can’t it be on - Anna Lazaridis a main road?

“Williamstown has been dudded,” Mr Watts said. “Not only will speeds on Malcolm Turnbull’s second-rate copper NBN be much slower than Labor’s real NBN; now these ugly green and grey boxes are being rolled out in front of people’s houses. “It’s a matter of equity. Why should some suburbs get Labor’s real, high-speed NBN and others get Malcolm Turnbull’s second-rate copper version?” Williamstown resident Anna Lazaridis said she was distraught after receiving a flyer in her letterbox informing her a node would be placed on her nature strip in quiet Chandler Street. The metal box sits on a

The mother of a four-month-old boy said she was concerned about the potential health risk as well as the visual aesthetics. “I really didn’t expect something so ghastly to be put out the front of my home,” Ms Lazaridis said. “You would have thought with modern technology we could come up with something a little bit more discreet. “It’s unsightly and, for me, it ruins the streetscape. It ruins the look of my home, of my neighbour’s home, of the whole street. Why can’t it be on a main road?” Mr Turnbull’s office did not respond to a request for comment.

Beaches sink in water ratings By Goya Dmytryshchak Williamstown beach has dropped from second to 14th in Port Phillip Bay water quality rankings, according to new data released last week. And Altona fell from 14th to 19th among the 36 beaches ranked under the Environmental Protection Authority (EPA) Beach Report program between November 1 and April 10. Williamstown Beach was closed after a bright orange discolouration was reported on December 10. An alert was issued for an algal bloom but that was removed the following day when the bloom was broken up by wind and tides. Altona beach was subject to an EPA investigation after its pollution hotline received about 400 calls between January 10 and 15 about a smell described as sewage or seaweed. EPA executive director Damian Wells said the most likely cause was seaweed and exposed mudflats during an extreme low tide along the coastline between Altona Meadows and Werribee South. But Hobsons Bay council remained unconvinced and commissioned its own expert to conduct tests. The results of those tests are expected next month. EPA applied sciences group manager Anthony Boxshall said rainfall in the catchment was the main influence on beach water quality.
“Rain washes everything down off the streets and through the stormwater system and out into the bay through drains and creeks,” he said. “People walk their dogs and leave what the dogs do on the side of the path. “There’s also a lot of birdlife around Altona, particularly with seagrass . . . and that can bring pollution.
‘‘
Rain washes everything off the streets . . . and into - Anthony Boxshall the bay

“And then on the land we’ll find leaks, sometimes on public loos near the beaches. “And then you’ve got construction sites portaloos, and they can leave a bit [of pollution].” The beach report data was released as the Minister for environment, climate change and water, Williamstown resident Lisa Neville, launched the EPA’s new marine monitoring boat, bar-ba-ka. The new boat, which is moored at Williamstown, will help the EPA investigate marine issues, respond to environmental emergencies, identify pollution hotspots and manage compliance investigations. Nine Port Phillip beaches were in equal first place for water quality in the latest EPA rankings – Hampton, Seaford, Portsea, Canadian Bay, Sandringham, Elwood, Rosebud, Santa Casa and Black Rock.

Taking Merc to the max A Spotswood man is looking to establish a group for like-minded car enthusiasts and philanthropists to help prepare his Mercedes for salt lake racing and do charity work in the community. Peter Max is currently preparing his SL600 Mercedes-Benz convertible, which has a V12 engine as powerful as a Lamborghini’s. “Now, I need to do things like put a roll cage in it, put a parachute on it, put a fire extinguishing system on it,” he said. “I was thinking that I should start a gentlemen’s club and call it the Aristochaps. “I’m very much interested in philanthropy – I’m in the Les Twentyman group and some other charities – and I’m really keen to start a
little group called the Aristochaps to do charity work around the area.” Mr Max said there would be no cost involved. “I’m hoping to find people to help me develop the car; by that I mean people who can talk about making it more aerodynamic or put a turbo charger on the engine … and who have a serious view of philanthropy – helping people in the community.” Anyone interested in getting involved can call Peter Max on 0411 108 080. Mr Max hopes to reach speeds of between 400 and 480km/h when he races at Lake Gairdner in South Australia. Goya Dmytryshchak

Seeds sown of a lasting tribute Newport Lakes Primary schoolchildren have planted one of 500 “Gallipoli oak trees” creating a living Anzac memorial. The school was among 500 primary schools to participate in the National Trust’s Gallipoli Oaks Project by planting a seedling descended from a Gallipoli acorn in the schoolground on Friday. The trust’s Anna Foley explained the oaks’ links to Gallipoli. “At the core of this project is the story of how a young Australian soldier, Captain Winter Cooke from Murndal, near Hamilton, noticed some unusual holly bushes while stationed at Gallipoli that had acorns like oak trees,” she said. “Captain Winter Cooke remembered that his Uncle Samuel in Hamilton was a bit of a tree enthusiast … so sent a package of acorns to him from Gallipoli almost 100 years ago. “Schools will plant seedlings that are direct descendants of those acorns from Gallipoli.” Schools can register for the project at www. gallipolioaks.org.

Through children’s eyes Schoolchildren at Laverton P-12 College decorated their school fence with poppies in honour of Anzac Day as they remembered the sacrifice of Diggers and strength in unity. Principal Richard Jones said the students were asked to write on the poppy petals what Anzac Day meant to them. They commented that it was remembering the landing at Gallipoli on April 25, 1915, the soldiers who protected us, and trying to prevent wars occurring. “There are three points about Anzac Day which I’d like students to think about,” Mr Jones
said. “Firstly, the Anzacs were made up of many nationalities and were quite multicultural, including indigenous Australians. “Secondly, is the idea of nation. People joined together to be stronger; together they knew they could protect our country. “Thirdly, spirit: courage, loyalty, friendship, united together for the same purpose. “Our school also has staff and students from all over the world. “And together we are stronger than alone.” Goya Dmytryshchak

Go on – be a screen star By Benjamin Millar Just a few minutes of your time every two years could save your life, according to a Maribyrnong cancer survivor. A regular breast appointment screen made all the difference for Helen Chenhall, who was diagnosed with breast cancer after attending a BreastScreen Victoria clinic for a free mammogram. The 56-year-old said her story showed why women over 50 should be pro-active in getting their free mammograms every two years. “I had no signs at all,” she said. “I didn’t have any lumps and I felt fine – I was healthy and had been to the doctor. It was just through a mammogram that it was picked up.” Ms Chenhall said the screening was a straightforward procedure and a more detailed screening would follow if any abnormalities were picked up. “If there is something there, they have a doctor to explain what is happening and a counsellor there you can talk to and discuss your options,” she said. Eight years from her diagnosis, Ms Chenhall remains free of cancer and actively encourages other women to make sure they attend regular screenings even if they feel well. “Pick a day and take a girlfriend or a group of girlfriends and do something nice afterwards like having lunch,” she said. “You are more likely to stick to it if you make that commitment to your friends and your friends will go as they don’t want to let you down. “Then if anything is found you have your support group there already.” BreastScreen Victoria’s Footscray clinic at 77 Paisley Street is open Monday to Thursday.

“This was an incredible opportunity to raise awareness around the issue of hunger in our own backyard, connect directly with the communities that we impact, as well as engage with the incredible partners who help Foodbank Victoria to fight hunger,” he said. Foodbank Victoria also collected food to make more than 1000 meals via food drives in towns visited along the cycle route including Bairnsdale, Shepparton, Bendigo and Ballarat. Last financial year Foodbank Victoria’s Yarraville warehouse was the distribution point for 9.5 million kilograms of food.
A nine-day ride across the state has helped raise more than $10,000 and highlighted the plight of the thousands of Victorians going hungry every day. Foodbank Victoria boss Dave McNamara and AFL fitness coach Cameron Falloon pedalled their way through regional Victoria to raise awareness on the inaugural Hunger Ride. After racking up almost 1200 kilometres the pair crossed the finish line at Foodbank’s Yarraville warehouse last Wednesday afternoon. Mr McNamara said the ride was to raise awareness, crucial food and funds for the one in 10 Australians who do not know where their next meal is coming from.

MY PLACE Turkish community leader and proud grandfather Mehmet Balikel, a former restaurateur, journalist, jeweller, factory worker and soldier, tells Benjamin Millar he has never been tempted to call anywhere but Footscray home. I came 2nd August, 1970, to Tullamarine. We came to the Midway Hostel. When we started to rent outside, we came into Footscray. I was working seven years in Smorgons meat section and paper mill. We came with three children, here I had two more children. After that we went to Turkey when my grandmother died and came back in two years time and started from zero. I worked in many factories, working hard. I’m happy in Australia. I’m Turkish but Australian too. Australia is a beautiful country. What do you like best about the area? Footscray is the best in the Melbourne area, it is very good. Many people tell me come to Sydney but no, I like Melbourne, I like Footscray best. Many fruit shops, shopping centre, not only like Sydney Road in Coburg or Lygon Street, every street in Footscray is a city. When people moved to Broadmeadows and Glenroy, everyone said sell, here you can buy a big house. I said no, I stay here. I’m a Footscray boy, many people say ‘you are a Footscray boy Mehmet’. Tell us about your restaurants? We started the Sofra restaurant in 1986 in Footscray. We started in Williamstown for four years, in Ferguson Street. After that we came back to Footscray again, where Footscray Best Kebab House is in Nicholson Street. We had people come from all over to eat in my restaurant in Footscray. I do limbo, I do a lot
of fun after the food, we bring in a belly-dancer and make people happy. Members of Parliament like Ralph Willis and Steve Bracks came. What could help improve Footscray? Footscray has changed. It was a busy shopping precinct until Highpoint opened. We have a parking problem, everyone goes away to Highpoint or Sunshine or different areas where parking is free. Tell us about your Anzac centenary project with Victorian RSLs? In Sydney, a member of Parliament read the Mustafa Ataturk writing to the Anzacs killed at Gallipoli about the Johnnies and the Mehmets. He said this very nice writing, we would like everyone to see that and read that; it should be put in all Australian RSL clubs. I read this and straightaway I wanted the Footscray RSL Club to make this writing there. I put it in the university, I put it in primary schools and some high schools. Every day I went 400 or 500 kilometres. Everyone be happy for the little gift, I got many thanks sent to me. I would like to put them in all RSLs in Australia but it is only myself working. Why is it important to honour Anzac Day? For Anzac it is important because we lost 16, 17 years old, from Turkish soldiers as well as Australian and New Zealand. We have no grudges, soldiers were just soldiers doing their jobs.

FOOD REVIEW
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir goes behind the scenes at Newport. The Challis Street shops in Newport – off Mason Street – are the sort of strip we’ve been driving by for years, taking a look every now and then to see if there’s anything cooking. On Challis Street, there never had been … and now there is. Searz is a very fine local cafe. It serves standard-range cafe breakfasts and mains, such as a caesar salad, a burrito bowl and fish ’n’ chips. But running through the mains and the smaller (tapas) dishes are Japanese/Korean influences. Over two visits we find our meals, and the service and timing, the whole experience, is top-notch. The bento special no doubt changes periodically. This version has fish three different ways: teriyaki salmon, battered cod with wasabi mayo, and grilled gemfish with Korean chilli sauce. They are all delicious and beautifully cooked. There’s about half a dozen different kinds of pickle, some of which I love, some of which I could do without. The house-made zucchini pickles are very fine. The bento line-up is completed by good salad and rice. And given the quality of the seafood involved, the bento would be right at home in a bona fide Japanese restaurant. Bennie’s bibimbap, a Korean rice dish ($16), is a doozy, too. He loves the finely cooked beef and mushrooms, the salady bits, egg, enokis
SEARZ CAFFI Address: 39 Challis Street, Newport Phone: 9399 2393 and more. Unlike so many versions of this dish, this one has enough fluid action going on that it’s a well-lubricated, “sweet and spicy” treat, right to the bottom of the bowl. But however fine his bibimbap, Bennie is openly envious of my ‘1010 burger’ ($15) – and so he should be. Despite the burger burn-out factor of the past year or so, this strikes us as being superb. It’s a 9/10 burger and chips combo that scrubs up much better than many of those to be had at more storied burger joints around Melbourne. There’s more of those zucchini pickles in there. And there’s ‘Searz aioli’, tomato relish and the usual, standard salad accessories. The meat patty is thick, juicy and screaming with beefy flavour. Gosh, it’s fantastic. The chips are hot, fresh and very plentiful. Searz is a prime example of everything a neighbourhood cafe should be. And the food, what we have enjoyed of it, rocks.

Uncompromising architectural lines make this abode a landmark with a look that gives a nod to US modernist experimental houses of the 1940s to ’60s. When refurbished, distinctive qualities were kept, and plentiful light, cross ventilation, double-glazing, solar HWS and hydronic heating were built in. Three upstairs bedrooms each have wardrobes, and a chic, shared bathroom and laundry are also up here. A living room with balcony could be a fourth bedroom – and there’s a study downstairs. Floorboards anchor living zones of lounge room with fireplace and a kitchen-dining space that is truly stylish, with all the mod-cons. Bifolds lead to a covered deck and leafy gardens, all within an amble of cafes, shops, station and The Strand waterfront.
Within a walk of Altona beach and with flawless presentation, this contemporary unit has premium appointments and a light-loving, open-plan design. The two carpeted bedrooms share a chic, fully tiled bathroom in soft-grey and white, a palette used throughout. Large-format tiles line the floor of the living hub and roller blinds dress all windows. The all-white kitchen has stone atop benches (including an island), a mid-grey glass splashback, plenty of cupboards and a two-door pantry. The laundry is separate. A paved courtyard under an open pergola is a private spot to relax with friends and a lock-up garage has internal access to a hallway heading to the kitchen. Ducted heating and an alarm system are extras at a place with Esplanade, a golf course and Pier Street cafes and shops nearby, as well as the train station.

Price: $1 million – $1.1 million
Auction: April 30 at 2.30pm
227 Douglas Parade Newport
This beautiful Victorian has the moniker of Wunderkammer (German for a place where curiosities and rarities are exhibited) – and it lives up to it. It’s in an uninhibited colour palette that gives the house a rare shine, one that transforms the walls rising 4.2 metres to meet gorgeous pressed metal ceilings and ornate cornices, in bedrooms and lounge room where original fireplaces add considerable charm. A corbelled arch, deep skirts and an original transom do the same. The extra-big bathroom is also a rare bird, artistically decorated with mosaics and with a pedestal basin. The kitchen-dining room at the rear is packed with whimsical charisma. It has a wonderful interpretation of a ‘50s green and creamy yellow palette, with all modern cons. Banquette seating is under a bulkhead and picture window, and a door leads to a small deck and glorious gardens. Ducted heating, roof storage and a rear lane are footnotes to a property a block from the Esplanade.

Price: Contact agent
Berean, named after the original sea captain owner’s vessel, is one of only three historic Williamstown properties still occupying an original block of about 1350 square metres. Its position gives enviable views of Williamstown beach, but you’re not just buying a house here – you’re after a lifestyle. The house, circa 1911 and considerably extended since, marries modern convenience with old-world glamour. The luxury begins at the front door and continues through the grand entry, where meticulous timber fretwork is the first of period features that include stepped cornices, ceiling rosettes, picture rails,

deep skirts, polished Baltic floorboards, cast-iron fireplaces, original door furniture and light switches and gorgeous leadlight-panelled and sash windows. The lounge room is elegant, with a huge bay (leadlight) window dressed in luxurious red drapes, gold tassels and trims. The formal dining room is equally resplendent with ruby-red walls and an exquisite chandelier. A vaulted ceiling and timber-panelled walls in the rumpus room pack a modern design punch; it also has a projector and surround-sound, built-in bar, display cabinetry and access to a balcony. The kitchen and meals area is a show-stopper. Slabs of marble-topped
benches, huge storage capacity – above and below benches – drawers are soft-closing, and the stainless-steel cooker is big. The butler’s pantry is an extension of the kitchen, but it also includes a cool room. Of the three ground-floor bedrooms, two have built-in wardrobes and en suites kitted out with stone-topped vanity units – one bedroom also has outdoor access. The main, however, is deluxe in proportion, fittings and vista. Huge sliders in the retreat space offer views of the landscaped backyard and, nearly as large as the bedroom itself, a deluxe dressing room has top-notch cabinetry. The en suite has a frameless glass shower with four heads (two

hand-held), a clawfoot tub and dual basins on stone. Upstairs, a carpeted guest retreat has an en suite, and there are a study and living space with skylights (with electric shutters). A brick-paved path signals the start of the vibrant outdoors. An alfresco area flows to a pool/guest house with a stone kitchen (built-in barbecue), living room, a bathroom and split-system. Opposite, a heated pool sparkles behind glass fencing. The property also features hydronic heating, air-conditioning, alarm, water tanks, an outdoor shower and gym attached to a double garage.

Yarraville-Seddon coach Dean Callaway was fuming at quarter-time of his side’s 96-point win over Manor Lakes in the Western Region Football League division 2 on Saturday. Callaway was concerned the Eagles had turned up to Howqua Reserve with the wrong attitude and were lucky to be only 16 points behind at the first break. The Eagles coughed up 12 first quarter scoring shots, but Manor Lakes’ return was just 5.7, letting the visitors off the hook. “We didn’t respect them in a way,” Callaway told Star Weekly. “We were just very soft at the footy in the first quarter and we allowed them to dictate. “Luckily towards the end of the first quarter, we got a couple of late goals, which put us 16 points behind at quarter-time. “Then we gave them a couple of stern words at quarter-time, got their minds back on the job and after that it was a completely different side.” Whatever was said in the Yarraville-Seddon huddle should be bottled. The Eagles were totally transformed for the second quarter and it continued through to full time. They not only booted 17 unanswered goals over the last three quarters, but kept Manor Lakes to just four behinds.
“We just reset and re-grouped as a team,” Callaway said. “We really opened the game up with our spread and just controlled the footy in hand. “For us to score 17 goals for the remainder of the game and for them to only score four points was a mighty effort.” Lachie Longmire produced yet another outstanding performance for Yarraville-Seddon. The playing assistant coach is leading from the front for his new club. “He really set the tone for us,” Callaway said. “He’s a marvellous footballer who’s hard at it, he leads, he talks, he brings guys into the play.” Jesse Varsamakis had a big influence in the ruck, while Jake Rycroft plugged holes where needed and Luke Simpson was solid across half-back. Scott Krakouer finished with three goals, despite spending time in defence. Kevin Upton a key target in attack, also kicked three. Yarraville-Seddon improved to 3-0 and is perched nicely on top of the ladder. It has been the Eagles response in the times they have been challenged over the first three games that has impressed Callaway. “It shows the character that we’ve got in the group,” Callaway said. The Eagles will host Caroline Springs in a first-versus-second showdown at Yarraville Oval on Saturday.

WK 27.04.16 ST
Ironman shows his mettle Point Cook’s Adam McCarthy had to draw on his inner strength to beat cancer. Now he faces a new challenge: a 3.8km swim, 180km bike ride and 42.2km run at the Ironman Australia triathlon on May 1. The 42-year-old completed his first ironman in 2013, but four months later he found himself in a doctor’s surgery being told he had testicular cancer. “I went a little numb just trying to process it all,” McCarthy said. “I could hear the doctor talking, but I can’t remember what he said.” During his preparation for Ironman Melbourne in 2013, McCarthy had felt a growing pain in his groin, but he put it down to the long hours spent on the bike. “After a chat with my doctor and a physical examination, he told me I had nothing to worry about,” McCarthy said. “But I knew there was more to it and insisted on more tests.”
McCarthy sought a second opinion, a move he credits to heightened awareness of what your body is feeling when training for an ironman. Now, in an effort to raise awareness around early detection, McCarthy is chasing the grand slam of ironman triathlons involving six races in 12 months. He completed Ironman New Zealand in March and will now do Ironman Australia, the Asia-Pacific championship in Cairns, Ironman WA and, finally, make a return visit to New Zealand in 2017. “I’m looking to gain greater exposure to my cause, to share my story and encourage everyone to go and have that five-minute chat with their doctor,” he said. McCarthy has set up a gofundme page to raise funds for testicular cancer research. For more about McCarthy, and to donate, go to www.gofundme.com/zt3tnz84
Wounded Seagulls now up and at ’em “His dedication to the cause has been nothing short of sensational,” Dixon said. “Hopefully, he can kick on now and really get some rewards this year.” Playing on a wing, Dorgan set up a goal for teammate Sam Dunell and had his own chances to cap a fairytale return with a goal, but finished with 0.3 in the 17.12 (114) - 11.4 (70) win. Bese was the hard luck story of 2015. One of the form players of the finals, he missed out on playing in a senior premiership after breaking his collarbone in the preliminary final. His attack on the football is widely admired in the Seagulls’ nest and he was back at the contests like a dog on a bone against the Scorpions. “He’s not going to change his style,” Dixon said. “It’s great to have him back.”
Gulls sting Scorpions By Lance Jenkinson Williamstown curbed offensive juggernaut Casey Scorpions for a bounce-back 44-point win at Casey Fields on Saturday night. The Seagulls had to re-group quickly on a six-day turnaround after a loss to Box Hill Hawks in the VFL grand final re-match. And they did so in devastating fashion to beat the in-form Scorpions 17.12 (114)-11.4 (70). “A lot of individuals were looking to make amends for their performances last week and as a team we did a lot wrong,” Seagulls football manager Chris Dixon told Star Weekly. “It was pleasing we could put all the talk about it during the week into action and put in a four-quarter performance.” Of concern to Williamstown was the Scorpions’ ability to score quickly and heavily, and nothing short of their best football for the full 120 minutes would be enough to bring the four points back to Morris Street. “Casey have been really dominant in the second halves and particularly in the last quarter,” Dixon said. “They’d kicked something like 22 goals in their previous two last quarters, so even when we were five or six goals up at three-quarter time, we were mindful that the game was still on the line.” After taking a six-point lead into quarter time, Williamstown gained the ascendancy with a five goals to two second term. It all started out of the middle for the Seagulls, with ruckman Nick Meese racking up 52 hit-outs against Scorpion bigs Max King and Oscar McInerny. Willie Wheeler, aided by some clever tap work from Meese, returned to his best with 14 clearances, while former St Kilda utility Arryn Siposs booted four goals. Williamstown will return to Burbank Oval on Sunday for a clash with traditional rival Port Melbourne. The game will start at 11.40am to accommodate Channel Seven’s live broadcast leading into its Sunday AFL game. It’s a game that is unlikely to disappoint the neutral observers. “They’re coming in with some form, as are we,” Dixon said. “When we play the old enemy, it’s a bit like the Anzac Day game; no matter where the teams are on the ladder, it’s always a good contest.” Meanwhile, Footscray dropped to 1-2 after a disappointing 18.9 (117)-12.17 (89) loss to Sandringham Zebras at Trevor Barker Oval. The Bulldogs will now host Werribee Tigers in a mouth-watering contest at Whitten Oval from noon on Saturday.

■ I’ve always felt life membership to be one of the highest honours you can receive in recognition for your contribution to an organisation. I cherish mine from the Western Bulldogs and was thrilled to be at Whitten Oval last week when Marie MacKellin was presented with hers. Marie has done everything but lace up a pair of boots at the Bulldogs and her years of volunteering were rightly acknowledged. On the same night, Clay Smith was part of the players’ panel, and while he has started joining some drills at training, he’s still at least nine weeks away from playing. I hope he makes it back because he’s a ripping young man and three knee reconstructions just isn’t fair. ■ Werribee and the Western Bulldogs face each other for the Western Health Cup at Whitten Oval at noon on Saturday. The Tigers are undefeated so far this season and are yet to play at home. That will come on Saturday, May 7, when they take on Williamstown under lights. Werribee has lined up former Neighbours actors Kevin Harrington and Ian Smith as speakers for the pre-match dinner. Ian, who played Harold Bishop, is Williamstown’s number one ticket holder and Kevin and wife Ann recently took over Quest Werribee. The Tigers’ past players and officials day is the match against Box Hill on May 15, which is being broadcast on Channel 7. ■ My piece last week on junior football and female football sparked some interesting responses. Albion is fielding two extra junior girls’ teams this year and is looking for more players. Contact Karyn on 0407 355 498 for details. They are looking for girls from 13-15 and for a sponsor for the girls’ teams. Some parents expressed concerns about the cost and I know one club sponsor who recently paid fees for a few struggling families but didn’t want to be named. I’d love to acknowledge that sort of generosity in this column but respect their privacy. ■ Who is the oldest golfer in the west still playing competition? News from Werribee Park Golf Club tells me Billy Preston and John McLure are in the running. Billy turns 85 on Anzac Day and John will be 85 in August. Can you name someone older? While on golf, the E.J. Whitten Foundation Golf Classic is at Victoria Golf Club in Cheltenham on Wednesday May 4. Contact info@1300whitten.com.au.

Jack Dorgan is back for Williamstown after a third knee reconstruction. (Shawn Smits)
Long-term injured players Jack Dorgan and Ben Bese made successful returns to Williamstown’s senior line-up for Saturday night’s big VFL win over Casey Scorpions at Casey Fields. Both had excruciating spells on the sidelines as they dealt with vastly different ailments. Dorgan has recovered from a third knee reconstruction, while Bese has endured a serious broken collarbone sustained in last year’s preliminary final. It was a heartwarming night for the Seagulls as two of their favourites returned to the field and came out of the game unscathed. Seagulls football manager Chris Dixon said it was great to have the pair back. “Straight away, you could see what they added to the team,” he said. Dorgan’s knee issues have failed to break his spirit. Few would have the courage to attempt a fourth comeback. His teammates are keeping their fingers crossed for a clear run, knowing what he has been through.

Footscray Edgewater was well represented in the latest round of Victorian Bushranger contracts announced last week. Star batsman Travis Dean and talented all-rounder Guy Walker were both given full contracts for next season. Dean was a star for the Bushrangers throughout 2015-16, scoring 807 runs, including a stunning century in the Sheffield Shield final against South Australia. Opener Dean, 24, is averaging 44 at first-class level. Walker, 20, made his Big Bash League debut for Melbourne Renegades this season. Also on the list of contracted players are Altona resident James Muirhead and former Hoppers Crossing spinner Fawad Ahmed.
Lacrosse
Defending champions Newport and runners-up Footscray will face off in a much-anticipated Lacrosse Victoria women’s state league grand final re-match at PJ Lynch Reserve tonight. The Porters made a flawless start to the season, downing Caulfield 12-0 in their season opener, while the Scray had a confident 13-5 win over Williamstown. In men’s state league, Williamstown is
2-0, but was made to work hard for an 11-10 win over Moreland at Fleming Park on Saturday. After a bye in round one, Footscray opened its account with a 7-6 win over Camberwell.
Netball
City West has secured its first and second wins of the Victorian Netball League season. The Falcons were too good for ACU Sovereigns on Wednesday, cruising to a 65-41 win, before backing up on Sunday for a tougher 64-56 victory over North East Blaze. The Falcons, now 2-1, will be chasing three in a row when they meet Peninsula Waves at the State Netball and Hockey Centre tonight.
Rugby Union
Footscray cannot take a trick in the Victorian Rugby Union’s top-flight Dewar Shield. The Bulldogs have slumped to a third successive defeat since opening their season with a win. The Doggies ran into a rampant Box Hill and came out on the wrong end of a 41-8 scoreline at Henry Turner Reserve on Saturday. And it will get even tougher as Footscray now travels to play undefeated ladder leader Harlequin on Saturday.
Heat beats gutsy Jets By Lance Jenkinson The Western Jets wilted in the stifling Brisbane heat in Saturday’s 28-point loss to Queensland in the TAC Cup. For most of the Jets, the flight north was the first time they had travelled interstate for a game. They were met by a supremely talented Queensland side and a hot and humid 29°C day. Jets coach Torin Baker admitted his players struggled with the conditions. “I think Queensland’s running ability in those conditions was excellent,” he said. “Our boys were a bit cooked at certain stages.” The Jets trailed by just a point at quarter-time. Ten goals were evenly split between the two sides in a frenetic opening 30 minutes. In the middle quarters, Queensland started to take control. “Our midfield got beaten fairly comprehensively in the second quarter,” Baker said. “We just found we were defending a lot and didn’t have the energy to counteract the running we were having to do defensively.” The Jets never gave up, with their fighting qualities coming to the fore late in the third quarter. What could have been a blow-out ended in a respectable 17.14 (116) - 14.4 (88) loss. “Halfway through the third quarter, we started to arrest the momentum and were able to get a lot of forward entries,” Baker said. “It was pleasing to see we ran the game out well.” When the Jets had their backs up against the wall, Cameron Rayner was one of the few midfielders to offer some resistance. Brodie Romensky’s versatility was on show again as he played at a high standard in defence and through the midfield. Harry Bult continues to build on his impressive resume and showed a lot of grit in locking down Queensland’s key forwards. Daniel Venables and Nick Giarrizzo were dangerous in attack with three goals apiece, while Frank Campisi and Mickey Nicholls slotted two each. Queensland showed it is getting stronger and poses a growing threat to visiting TAC Cup sides.

“I think it’s well known in footy circles that both the NSW and Queensland academies and the work done with their players from a young age is really starting to pay off,” Baker said. “You can see that with some of the players they’ve produced at AFL level. “They’ve got some excellent top-end talent and overall some real good depth in their state team. We were playing a really talented team … a lot of our players were saying they have a respect for the level of talent they were playing against. “At times we showed we were able to compete really well.” The Jets will take on Dandenong Stingrays at Burbank Oval on Sunday.

Phoenix rallies to a gritty win By Lance Jenkinson Altona East Phoenix has ripped up the form guide to breathe new life into its Football Federation Victoria men’s state league 1 north-west season. Pundits were asking how the Phoenix could recover after conceding nine goals and scoring one in its previous two matches, including an embarrassing 6-1 loss to Sydenham Park last start. Phoenix president Jim Dimitriou insisted the prior 180 minutes were an aberration and the newly constructed team was still a work in progress. He backed coach Brian Sweeney and his players to turn things around. But few would have expected that progress to come as swiftly as it did, in a 2-1 win over Keilor Park on a tough trip to Keilor Park Recreation Reserve on Saturday. “Keilor Park, on their day, can beat anyone, especially on their home ground,” Dimitriou told Star Weekly. “They’re not an easy team to beat, but we had something to prove. We didn’t think we’re a 6-1 side. We might not be championship contenders, but we think we’re good enough to finish at least mid-table or higher.” The Phoenix were comfortable for most of the 90 minutes against Keilor Park. The team achieved scoreboard supremacy with the aid of an own goal after an exquisite Nathan Jones corner was inadvertently headed in by a Keilor Park defender. The Phoenix doubled its lead after the break when Liam Francis stepped up to score from the penalty spot. The referee was given no choice but to point to the spot after Garth Richards was brought down in the box. Keilor Park might have been down, but it wasn’t out.

Versatile young defender Aaron Sweeney, having formed a strong central defensive pairing with Orhan Kara, was again best-afield. “They both did a good job, both had good games,” Dimitriou said. “I thought Aaron was probably the best player for us. We’ve played in four games now and he’s played in three different positions – right back, right midfield and now as a central defender – so he’s been important for us.” Phoenix faces a major test against in-form North Sunshine Eagles at Paisley Park on Saturday. Elsewhere, Altona Magic recovered from its mid-week FFA Cup exit at the hands of South Melbourne to post a 1-0 win over Yarraville Glory. The Magic is yet to drop a point this season and has moved three games clear on top of the ladder. In state league 2 north-west, Altona City went down 1-0 to Hoppers Crossing at Kim Reserve. City would be sick of the sight of Hoppers, having finished second in the state league 3 title race to that side last season and losing their past three matches against them by single goals. FC Williamstown climbed to third in state league 3 north-west with a confident 3-0 win over Western Eagles on the road at the Polish Sports and Recreation Centre, while Melbourne City fell to fourth with a 1-1 draw at home to Whittlesea United. In state league 4 west, Maribyrnong Greens’ rocky start continued with a 4-1 loss to Point Cook at Skinner Reserve, while Altona North went down 2-1 to Truganina at Arndell Park Reserve. Laverton Park still clings to top spot in state league 5 west after its 1-1 draw with Keilor Wolves.

Exclusive to Werribee Hyundai
Hyundai has made great inroads to the Australian car market, with many of its models being hits in their respective classes. One model that hasn’t quite become a household name is the mid-sized i40, which has plenty of tough competition, with the Toyota Camry, Kia Optima and even the Hyundai Sonata sitting next to it in showrooms. The i40 was also one of the more bland-looking Hyundai’s when compared to stablemates such as the Elantra. But that’s changed with the Series II, which comes with a tasteful facelift that gives it graceful sweeping lines, pretty teardrop headlights and a big-bold grille. It has more technical features than the petrol-powered Sonata and comes with a very economical 1.7-litre turbo-diesel engine. The i40 comes in sedan and station wagon (Tourer) and in two specs, Active and Premium. I test drove the i40 Premium sedan, which has plenty of features for a drive-away price starting about $44,000. Inside The i40 Premium is a nice car to be in and very well appointed. The first thing you notice is the big sunroof, which really adds to the ambience. The leather-appointed seats are firm and take a bit of getting used to but once you do you’ll enjoy the back support. The driver’s seat has 10 electronic adjustments and both front seats have heating. The dashboard is nice to look at, with a futuristic design including angular air vents
that lead to the seven-inch touch screen that shows entertainment, phone, reverse camera and sat-nav functions. The gauge cluster has information/trip computer screen in between the tacho and speedometer, which is controlled from the steering wheel, along with cruise control, phone and radio/media mode and volume.

bland have their own air vents and a fold-down armrest in the middle with drink holders and storage space under a flip-up lid. The boot is huge – a 505-litre capacity.
Going on Patrol calls for some careful checking
Technology Beyond the standard safety features, the i40 Premium has a host of extras including: Auto Hold (which engages the electronic park brake when stopped on an incline), Park Assist sensors, Emergency Stop Signal, Lane Keeping Assist SysteM, and Smart Park Assist, which automatically steers the car into a parallel parking spot. I’ve tested a few cars with the latter but have always found it complicated. This seemed a lot simpler albeit still very counter-instinctive – you need to remember that it doesn’t control speed or brakes.
Nissan Patrol is a real-deal 4WD – not an SUV. Its truck-type body-on-chassis construction is designed to provide maximum strength in harsh driving conditions, particularly in real off-road stuff. The drawback of a ladder-frame is a lack of refinement and comfort compared to the typical SUVs of the modern era. The big Nissan did well enough in its early iterations but really came to the fore with the launch of the fourth generation, the GQ series, in 1987. Since then it has continued to be a worthy competitor for Toyota’s Landcruiser.
It has ample storage – the centre console has a nice big bucket under the arm rest along with a couple of cup holders. There’s a nice deep aperture in front of the gear stick where you can put and plug in your phone to USB and auxiliary sockets. The back seat has plenty of leg and head room for a medium car.

Driving The 1.7-litre turbo diesel engine feels smooth once you’re driving and the seven-speed automatic transmission sends the power through the gears quite nicely. One thing I didn’t like was the noticeable lag if you stomp on the pedal, particularly from a standing start. Be very careful at busy roundabouts. On the plus side, the i40 is incredibly economical, with a published combined economy rate of 5.1 litres/100 kilometres.
What to look for • Wandering from straight-ahead when driving on a sealed road possibly means suspension problems. It can also be caused by incorrect tyre pressures. Check tyres before a test drive. • Rust isn’t usually a problem unless a Patrol has been used in surf at a beach. Check the chassis and the lower areas of the body and doors.

• Look for under the body damage – the door sills and bumpers are usually the first to suffer. Look for dings in the bash plates and be sure they haven’t been pushed on to items they should be protecting. • Listen for a whining sound from the turbo and look for black smoke from the exhaust under acceleration.
