Spill seeps into bay By Goya Dmytryshchak Authorities have warned it could take weeks to mop up an oil spill that has polluted Williamstown waterways, affected wildlife and spread into Port Phillip Bay. The Environment Protection Authority was notified of the spill last Tuesday. It has identified Boral Resources, a national supplier of asphalt and other road materials, as a potential source of the pollution. Parks Victoria confirmed the pollution, which started in Paisley-Challis Wetlands at Williamstown, had impacted Jawbone Marine Sanctuary in the bay. “The impacts include a thin layer of oily residue along approximately 400 metres of the shoreline at the high tide mark within the marine sanctuary,” a spokesman said.

It’s such a sad day when we see wildlife affected by pollution - Marilyn Olliff

bird would have been affected externally. Dr Olliff said the spill could affect many birds in the area, including migratory birds who come from as far as Alaska and Siberia. “They eat small invertebrates picked out of the mud or sand,” she said. “The oiled bird was walking around and appeared to be feeding normally. “Oil on the surface around the mouth of the

drain would mean that when the birds peck into the mud to feed, they would be taking in some oil as well as food. “This would result in problems for all the birds in this area even if they didn’t get oil on their feathers.” A Boral spokesman confirmed the company was “co-operating” with the EPA in the clean-up.

“The source of the contaminant, which the EPA believes to be an oil-based substance, has not yet been confirmed,” he said. “We understand that the EPA’s investigation is ongoing. “Boral will continue to co-operate with the EPA and other relevant authorities.” A Melbourne Water spokeswoman said further clean-up may last several weeks.

“To date we have observed a number of birds with some oiling of plumage but all are actively flying and feeding.” Melbourne Water used an excavator, booms and vacuum trucks to try to stop the pollution spreading, with the Department of Transport’s marine pollution team providing back-up. EPA’s western metropolitan manager Stephen Lansdell said Boral was assisting with the clean-up. “EPA is continuing to investigate the cause and hold those responsible to account,” he said. “While further scientific analysis is underway, a nearby business, Boral Resources (Vic) Pty Ltd, has been identified as a potential source and is assisting authorities with ongoing clean-up. “The agencies are confident they have stemmed the flow of the pollutant, and arrangements have been put in place to deal with expected rainfall,” he said. “Members of the public are advised to avoid contact with water in the affected waterways.” Hobsons Bay Wetlands Centre chair, environmental scientist Marilyn Olliff, has photographed the oil spill and a sharp-tailed sandpiper wader bird with oil in its feathers. “It’s such a sad day when we see wildlife affected by pollution,” Dr Olliff said. “It looks like some oil reached the bay before the booms were put in place, before the pollution was discovered, which is how the

Swifts dumped from park panel By Benjamin Millar The community advisory panel assembled to advise Maribyrnong council on the Footscray Park Masterplan is proceeding without a football community voice after the Maribyrnong Swifts were dumped as a member. Maribyrnong Swifts Football Club, Maribyrnong’s leading women’s soccer team, was told in late August it would be one of the dozen local sporting and community organisations sitting on the panel to consider Mebourne Victory’s soccer academy proposal

for Footscray Park. The club was last month informed it would be cut from the panel due to a perceived conflict of interest, only to be later told by Maribyrnong council that a final decision would be delayed pending further legal advice. Council’s chief executive officer Stephen Wall said that following the legal advice, the council had decided that Maribyrnong Swifts’s memorandum of understanding with Melbourne Victory was a “formal relationship” that constituted a conflict of interest. He said the cub was advised accordingly,

however offered the chance to present to the group. “We are confident that no other participating clubs have a conflict of interest and all members of the group have been requested to keep an open mind during discussions,” he said. “We will not be releasing the names of the organisational representatives at this time. However a report will be prepared for consideration by council that will contain the findings of the Community Advisory Group.” Swifts technical director Henrik Steenberg said the club was disappointed to have been

dropped from the panel and that there would be no representatives from the soccer sphere. “For us it’s about finding pathways for opportunities for girls, the current pathway gap in the west is a huge gap,” he said. “We will obviously continue to have a dialogue with the council as to any opportunities for football for girls in Maribyrnong, with the kind of growth we are experiencing.” The advisory panel’s report is due to be presented to the council ahead of a final decision at the City Development Special Committee on December 17.

Charges over railway copper thefts

Festival offers a cure for all ales The Williamstown Heritage Beer and Cider Festival is on this Saturday with a promise to be good for what ales you. The annual Willy Beer Fest, as it has become known over the past six years, will showcase more than 100 craft beers and ciders. Festival director Terri Jackson said this year’s event, on Williamstown’s waterfront, was the biggest yet. “We couldn’t be more excited as we are heading into our largest festival yet,” she said. “It’s celebrating the historical significance of Australia’s earliest breweries through their

links with the pubs of Williamstown. Up to 41 pubs operated in the 1880s. Lucky locals and visitors to Williamstown can still enjoy a beer in some of these heritage buildings.” She said the who’s who of craft beer would be there, including Hop Nation, Two Birds, Moon Dog, Stomping Ground, Thunder Road, Bonehead, Holgate, Blackmans and Bricklane. There’ll also be spritzers, a touch of wine, street food, live music, entertainment and a beer-matched American BBQ tasting experience. Children can enjoy a dedicated kids zone. Proceeds will support the community

through partnerships with the Williamstown Football Club and new charity partner, The Les Twentyman Foundation, Ms Jackson said. “The festival aims to raise over $5000 to assist with providing crucial programs, services and resources assisting Victoria’s at-risk youth.” The Williamstown Heritage Beer and Cider Festival is at Seaworks Precinct on Saturday, November 16, from noon-8pm. Tickets start from $35 and include a souvenir festival glass. Details: willybeerfest.com.au

A 52-year-old Altona Meadows man has been charged over a spate of copper thefts that brought railways in Melbourne’s west to a standstill last month and forced thousands of commuters onto buses during the morning peak. The man is accused of stealing lucrative copper cables that caused Altona Loop services to be suspended or altered in the last week of October. Commuters were plagued by 40-minute delays during the morning peak and Metro ordered almost 50 buses while trains were down four times in one week. Nearly 50 replacement buses were ordered while trains were down over four days. “Transit police have charged a 52-year-old man with two counts of burglary and theft relating to the alleged theft of copper cabling,” Victoria Police said in a statement. The man was also charged with one count of being a prohibited person in possession of a firearm. Chief operating officer Catherine Baxter said Metro’s security and surveillance team would continue patrolling the area to prevent any further thefts and vandalism. “Our network security and surveillance team apprehended a man near the rail corridor early on Friday morning,” Ms Baxter said. “They were then handed over to Victoria Police.’’ She also thanked passengers for their patience. – The Age

Carter returns to the robes By Benjamin Millar Maribyrnong councillor Sarah Carter has returned to the mayoral role for the first time in eight years, securing the position into the final year of the council’s current term. The River ward councillor, first elected to the council in 2008, was voted into the job by her fellow councillors at a special meeting of council last Wednesday night. Stony Creek ward councillor Megan Bridger-Darling – who came onto council at the start of this year on a vote countback following Catherine Cumming’s move to state

Parliament – was elected deputy mayor. Cr Carter is embarking on her second stint as mayor, having become the youngest woman to ever hold the position when she was elected into the role in 2010 at the age of 32. She said the support she had received since being announced in the role has been “overwhelming and humbling all at once”. “It’s been eight years since I was last mayor … A lot has changed in that time, but not my enthusiasm for doing what I do,” she said. “My passion for our community and the people in it endures.” Cr Carter takes over the role from Yarraville

ward councillor Martin Zakharov, making her the third mayor affiliated with the Labor Party in succession. Labor councillors were frozen out of the role during the previous council term, during which the four independent councillors rotated the role. Cr Carter will retain the mayoralty until the next local government election, due to be held in October 2020. Cr Carter has returned as mayor of Maribyrnong. (Supplied)

Back for another tilt Colleen Gates was elected Hobsons Bay’s new mayor on Friday night. An environmental engineer who has lived in the west for about 20 years, the Wetlands ward councillor replaces Strand ward councillor Jonathon Marsden at the helm. Cr Gates previously served as mayor in 2014-15. She said her mayoral program would focus on open space, community connectedness and innovation. “We know our residents treasure our coastline and our parklands and sports fields,” Cr Gates said. “I’d like to place some focus on how the council and community can protect, enhance and share these spaces for all. “Volunteers are the glue in our community: people with a passion, hobby or interest to connect with others and give up their time freely to make a difference for our community.

“I think there is an opportunity to work with our younger residents, perhaps through junior council, to develop innovative ideas and find projects for potential implementation.” Outgoing mayor Cr Marsden congratulated Cr Gates. “You’ve a lot of experience but we’ll be leading into an election year, which requires a lot of sound political skill, which you have in spades,” he said. “I know you will smash it like an avocado.” Cherry Lake ward councillor Sandra Wilson was elected deputy mayor. Councillors Gates and Wilson were elected to the council in 2012. Goya Dmytryshchak New mayor of Hobsons Bay, Cr Colleen Gates. (Supplied)

Hop Nation’s expansion plans By Benjamin Millar There are some big ideas brewing down at Footscray’s Hop Nation. The Hop Nation brewery team has been running its operation since 2016, based in a riverside Footscray warehouse that dates back to the 1880s. But its growing popularity has been putting on the squeeze, forcing it to look to expand. The pressure has sparked plans for a brand new brewery and bar to be built on a vacant 1233 square-metre industrial site just a stone’s

throw from their current premises. General manager Sam Hambour said the new brewery would offer more space for beer production as well as a new bar tailor-made for tastings. “We just want to expand what we have been doing the last few years,� he said. “It will give us more room to brew and to upgrade our equipment. We have really enjoyed the support in the area, if we can get it through it will give Hop Nation a great future in the west.� Hop Nation would retain its existing brewery

and bar, using the space to expand its more experimental beer range, barrel ageing and collaborations with other brewers. Mr Hambour said the new premises would handle larger-scale production and offer a different type of tasting experience in the bar, which will have the capacity to handle up to 110 patrons. “The days of just putting out a few planks and some beer are gone, people are after the full package,� he said. “It means we will be able to keep investing in the area and have a spot Architectural plans for the new Hop Nation where locals can come and enjoy themselves.� brewery.

From beans to books While money may not grow on trees, Footscray West Primary School has found a way to turn its blooming orchard into a self-seeding source of funds. Parents of pupils last year began a program in which volunteers run weekly cooking sessions using produce sourced from the school’s orchard. The sessions proved so popular the program continued this year, paving the way for the production of a cookbook as a school fundraiser. The cookbook will feature recipes that have been used to teach the pupils about the wonders of cooking with fresh produce. Parent Dianne MacDonald said the cooking sessions have been a hit with the pupils, who can follow the food’s journey all the way from planting through harvesting to cooking and eating. “Parents come in once a week and cook with

She said the cookbook, which will bring together favourite recipes from the sessions, has been created with the help of a number of volunteers. “It’s the whole community coming together to help out with the fundraising,� she said. Orders are currently being taken through the school office ahead of the cookbook’s official launch early next month. Ms MacDonald said all funds raised will be ploughed directly back into the orchard and cooking program.

Fighting for life

PHONE \ 03 8318 5777

A Footscray man and his pet Labradoodle are fighting for life after being hit by a stolen car. The 44-year-old and his dog were waiting to cross Ballarat Road at a set of traffic lights near Gordon Street about 8.40pm on Sunday when they were hit by an out-of-control 2008 Ford Mondeo sedan, whose occupants fled. A 48-year-old man and 27-year-old woman, both from Footscray, were arrested about 10pm and questioned before being released pending further inquiries. Police are still searching for two other men who fled the car.

Seaside fair for all It only comes around once every two years, and Sunday’s Williamstown Primary Seaside Fair will be worth the wait. The single biggest fundraising event for the school will have fairground rides and food, stalls, free activities hosted by music and sports clubs, an online auction, photography competition, barbecue and even paella cooked up by Seabastion Beach Grill. This year’s event will have a high-end pre-loved women’s clothing stall for the first time, called Glad Rags Deluxe. Following in the grand tradition of the Great British Bake Off and Royal Melbourne Show,

Hobsons Bay’s recycling will be going to landfill until the end of next week due to a Melbourne-wide capacity issue. Residents are asked to hold onto their recyclables for the subsequent collection. The council made the announcement on Monday night, saying the issue would be resolved at the end of next week.

Dead magpies

the fair features the Great Willy Bake-Off – a cut-throat baking competition for kids. Young entertainers will also battle it out in a Willy’s Got Talent contest as part of all-day entertainment. Proceeds will go towards improving the school, including its outdoor spaces. The fair is on Sunday, November 17, from 10am-4pm at Williamstown Primary School, 115 Cecil Street, Williamstown. Details: willyseasidefair.weebly.com or Willy Primary Seaside Fair on Facebook.

Authorities are investigating after five dead magpies were found in Altona Meadows at the weekend. The birds have been taken to Werribee Zoo for testing. They are believed to have died of poisoning but it’s not known if it was intentional.

Altona’s new cop shop

Longer life? Try running

By Goya Dmytryshchak Altona’s new 24-hour police station is due to open in April and will house the divisional highway patrol along with the uniform section and crime investigation unit from Altona North. Westgate Highway Patrol, which currently operates out of Wyndham North police station, will relocate to Altona North. Hobsons Bay Inspector Tim O’Connor said the new Altona station, in Galvin Street at the western end of Civic Parade, was designed to accommodate growth over the next 50 years.

‘‘

it’s well and truly outlived its use-by date

’’

- Inspector Tim O’Connor “It will really give us a bigger footprint in that Altona area with police movements in and out,” he said. The new double-storey station will replace the ageing Altona North police station in Cooper Avenue. “Altona North is an old building, it’s well and truly outlived its use-by date,” Inspector O’Connor said. “It will really give us better facilities that we need to support the local community, and it’s been designed to support growth over the next 50 years.” The state government provided more than $18 million to relocate and build the police station, Altona MP Jill Hennessy said. “The new $18 million station will support local police as they continue to provide strong community policing across Melbourne’s booming western suburbs,” she said.

The last police station in Altona was at the corner of Blyth Street and Valletta Lane and closed in 1978. Prior to that, there was a station on the corner of Blyth and Sargood streets. Altona Village Traders Association president Kim Walsh, a former police detective, said

businesses would be pleased to have a police station closer to Altona beach, the Pier Street and Harrington Square shopping precincts. Plans for the new station show 59 on-site car spaces, one bay for a booze bus and three spots for stolen vehicles.

Running for as little as 50 minutes per week can drastically lower the risk of premature death, according to new research published by a team from Victoria University’s Institute for Health and Sport. In a study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, Associate Professor Zeljko Pedisic and his team reviewed 14 studies involving 232,149 people whose health had been tracked for between 5.5 and 35 years. They found that people who ran as little as once per week, or less than 50 minutes, had a 27 per cent lower risk of death from all causes than those who did not run at all. The study found those who ran enjoyed a 30 per cent lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease and a 23 per cent lower risk of death from cancer. They concluded that there was no clear evidence that the risks decreased with higher levels of running. “This is a good news for those who don’t have much time on their hands for exercise, but it shouldn’t discourage those who enjoy running longer and more often,” Associate Professor Pedisic said. He said the study indicates that in the general population, the benefit of running outweighs the risks. “Any amount of running … is better than no running, but higher doses of running may not necessarily be associated with greater mortality benefits.”

Heritage bid for hotels By Benjamin Millar Two of Footscray’s landmark hotels will be afforded stronger heritage protection to mark their importance in the suburb’s settlement history. Maribyrnong council recently engaged heritage experts Context to update the heritage assessments for the former Junction Hotel at 56 Whitehall Street and former Exchange Hotel at 28 Napier Street, both built in the 1800s during Footscray’s formative white settlement years. A council report on the heritage assessments noted that the existing heritage citations for both sites are limited and no longer meet new standards set by the state government. Councillors resolved to nominate the Junction Hotel to the Victorian Heritage Register due to its potential “state significance” and tighten controls for both properties in its own planning scheme. The two-storey former Junction Hotel, built in 1854 and currently operating as an office for the Les Twentyman Foundation, was found to have significance for architectural and historical reasons. “The building is made of local material which made Footscray important in the early development of Melbourne,” the report stated. “The building was used as a public meeting place for over 130 years and played a role in founding the municipality.” The two-storey Exchange (Reverence) Hotel was built in 1876 and recently ceased operations, although new operators are expected to reopen in coming months. “The building has local significance for architectural and historical reasons, resembling Renaissance-style design and having served as a meeting place since the beginnings of urbanisation in Footscray,” the report noted.

Councillor Martin Zakharov told the recent city development meeting that it was important to take further steps to ensure that the impressive built history in the inner-west is maintained and preserved. Cr Mia McGregor said it’s important that the council can request a planning permit before any redevelopment of historic buildings occurs. Heritage Victoria will be asked to complete its own assessment of the Junction Hotel site before making a recommendation to the Heritage Council of Victoria, an independent statutory body that will make the final decision on whether to include the property on the Victorian heritage register.

Apartment plan on mosque site Newport Islamic Society has applied to build a five-storey, 27 dwelling apartment building on the site of its former mosque. The site, at the corner of Walker and Mason streets in ‘the heart’ of the Newport activity centre, would also have office and retail space. A report by G2 Urban Planning, acting for the society, states the proposed development comprises ground floor retail space, a first floor office and apartments and three additional levels of apartments. Car parking for 56 vehicles is provided in a basement and at ground level. “The overall height of five levels is in keeping with the emerging character for the centre,” G2’s report states. “The fifth level is highly recessive such that from most vantage points within the centre the building will appear to be four storeys in scale. “The development will be a positive addition to the built environment. The proposal will make a significant, positive visual contribution to the ‘heart’ of the activity centre. “It will enhance the vista along Mason Street and Walker Street and provide a marker to the Newport Activity Centre.” The existing mosque building would be demolished. The planning permit application is before Hobsons Bay council.

Back to the future for old servo By Goya Dmytryshchak Plans for a four-storey apartment block on the site of a service station opposite Williamstown Town Hall have been scrapped in favour of reopening the Metro branded petrol station. An apartment application for 97 Ferguson Street was refused by Hobsons Bay council and the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal, before scaled-back plans were subsequently approved but not acted on.

‘‘

it’s slightly less profitable – but there’s no risk

’’

- Brian Noordenne Owner of the site, Noordenne Developments, has lodged a new planning permit application with the council to upgrade the existing service station. Correspondence by Refine Town Planning,

acting for Noordenne, states the plan includes partial demolition of the facade and construction of a new canopy over the fuel tanks. “The site currently contains building fabric which is not contributory to the heritage precinct, and renovation of the site to ‘modernise’ the existing service station is therefore entirely appropriate,” it states. “Importantly, the proposed buildings and works, and new signage will not detract from

heritage assets adjoining the site.” Site owner Brian Noordenne said he had received a “good offer” from Metro. “Because we got cut back that much on the apartments, it’s just about as viable to expand the petrol station and continue it on,” he said. “Essentially, we’re going to put a canopy on there, refurb the store and reopen it as a petrol station. “It’s not more profitable – it’s slightly less profitable – but there’s no risk.”

The Performance Club is hosting a 24-hour event, Conquer 4 Twenty-Four, where participants will be pushed to their limits. Gym owners Nicolett and Dylan Conway said so many people had been touched by mental health issues that they wanted to show their support. “We just thought we’d run a pretty mentally and physically demanding 24 hours because we think that’s what people with mental illness go through every day,” Mr Conway said. “Everyone travels with mental illness at some point and exercise plays a big part in helping people with that as well. “We’re just trying to bring all that to light and make it a bit more of an issue so that everyone can know when they go to our facility there’s always someone to chat to.” Some activities for participants are being kept closely under wraps, but they could involve

Stewy struck off the books By Esther Lauaki

Hallelujah, the music is back

(Damjan Janevski) 199943_01

A Hobsons Bay snake catcher has been sacked by neighbouring Wyndham council. Wyndham council confirmed last week it had terminated the contract of Stewart Gatt, aka Stewy the Snake Catcher. Mr Gatt had for the past four years been one of a handful of snake catchers contracted by Wyndham to provide a free service for residents. His contract was recently terminated for a number of breaches, including incorrect reporting of call-outs and what he said were “clerical errors” he made on invoices. “There were about half a dozen invoices that were incorrect and, once we were made aware of them, those were fixed up,” he told Star Weekly. “I was told by a DELWP (Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning) wildlife officer that I did not have to record the removal of blue-tongued lizards but Wyndham council was advised otherwise and this was also seen as a breach of contract.” Mr Gatt said in another instance, he had failed to report to wildlife authorities that an injured python he collected from Point Cook had died. “I used to have a full-time job, but I gave up that job in order to service the Wyndham community 24 hours, seven days a week,” he said. Mr Gatt still provides snake catching services for several other councils including Hobsons Bay. Hobsons Bay council said Mr Gatt and DELWP were its points of contact in the event of a snake sighting. The council confirmed Mr Gatt provided and would continue to provide a regular snake catching service to Hobsons Bay.

Handel’s Messiah is returning to Williamstown this month. Renowned Williamstown conductor Doug Heywood will be presiding over a twilight performance at Williamstown Town Hall featuring the Camberwell Chorale, Camerata Orchestra and soloists. Mr Heywood said the performance was a great opportunity for members of the local community to hear Handel’s powerful masterpiece, written more than 270 years ago and performed each Christmas throughout the world. The famous Hallelujah Chorus, which ends the second movement of Messiah, is heard every Christmas throughout Australia on Vision Australia’s Carols By Candlelight – which Mr Heywood also conducts. “It’s fantastic and it tells a really terrific story,” he said. “It’s just a story of life – of a birth, of toil and tribulation, and a belief of peace at the end of it; you can actually get peace.” Soloists include soprano Lauren Oldham, tenor Michael Lapina, countertenor Hamish Gould and bass Manfred Polhenz. The twilight performance starts 6.30pm on Saturday, November 23 at Williamstown Town Hall. Tickets, at $35, $30 concession or $15 students, are available via 9932 4074 or www.hobsonsbaytickets.com.au DOUG HEYWOOD

Illegal waste case lands in court By Benjamin Millar Operators of a Braybrook warehouse piled high with illegal stockpiles of recycling waste have been fined for repeatedly defying orders for the materials to be removed. The Ashley Street warehouse waste piles, sitting barely 100 metres from surrounding residents, were discovered by Maribyrnong council in March. Formerly operated by TIC group but under new ownership, the large warehouse at 81-85

Ashley Street has become an illicit dumping ground for recycling waste despite no planning permit for such a use. Star Weekly revealed in August that sources familiar with the property fear the stockpiles pose a significant safety risk to nearby residents unless urgent action is taken to remove the waste. Maribyrnong council director of planning services Nigel Higgins said the council and MFB have undertaken further site inspections, with no change in the status of stored materials. WorkSafe has also investigated the site over

occupational health and safety concerns. The council was granted an injunction in the Sunshine Magistrate’s Court on October 4 requiring the owners cease the illegal use of the building within 30 days, and to ensure required essential safety measures are in place. “Council will take advice should the injunction not be complied with,” Mr Higgins said. The court imposed a penalty and awarded legal costs to the council totalling $4559. Star Weekly attempted to contact the site’s owner.

Bottle that idea Children at Guardian Early Learners childcare centre in Altona North came up with an environmentally-friendly way to replace their two greenhouses destroyed by Melbourne weather. The children built a new sustainable greenhouse from recycled plastic bottles. Family members and friends brought in their used plastic bottles and the children got them ready for construction by cutting and threading them onto poles. Poles from the destroyed greenhouses were re-used for the new project to save on materials going to waste. The children potted plants for the greenhouse and the herbs and vegies they grow will be used in their meals made in the centre’s kitchen. Educational leader Lee Couch said the project had been a great way to teach the children about being sustainable and using products that would be destined for landfill. “We’re making a positive impact on our

environment and teaching the children a really valuable lesson at the same time – an extremely hot topic at the moment, with climate change making daily headlines,” she said. “We were finding that our greenhouses that we were getting were not up to the Melbourne weather. “Our kinder children decided that we had to have a stronger greenhouse.” She said Hobsons Bay was going through a recycling crisis at the time so the centre put out a call for plastic bottles. “In the end, we had to collect over 1200 bottles to complete it … we had people in the community saving their bottles and bringing them in. “We’re in the process of saving the planet and helping out with the recycling crisis. “Our motto in the classroom is ‘Make something new out of something old’.” Goya Dmytryshchak

City’s 10 year cycling plan By Benjamin Millar More than 16 kilometres of protected lanes and a host of other safety measures have been flagged over the next decade as part of Maribyrnong council’s new 10-year cycling strategy. The Draft Maribyrnong Bicycle Strategy (2019-2029) outlines the council’s key priorities for encouraging more people to cycle to local destinations. Strategies include protecting and upgrading existing cycling infrastructure, introducing new measures as roads are renewed, improving

the overall road environment and increasing the number of available bike parking spots. A council report on the draft plan noted that cycling has seen significant growth in Maribyrnong over the past 15 years. “The city is experiencing significant population change, demand for improved active transport options and a new Maribyrnong Bicycle Strategy is proposed to support this change,” it stated. “Community awareness of cycling benefits are increasing and the local community is calling for more cycling support, particularly safer environments.”

The draft strategy has incorporated input from community drop-in sessions and the Maribyrnong Active Transport Advisory Committee (MATAC), as well as adjoining councils and state agencies. “The strategy prioritises separation and safety for all cyclists, proposing over 16 kilometres of protected lanes, encouraging safer speeds within local neighbourhoods and all activity centres, and seeks to distinguish Maribyrnong as ‘the place where people ride bikes’,” the report stated. Moving a motion in support of the strategy at the recent city development meeting,

councillor Megan Bridger-Darling said she was pleased to see the focus on cycling safety and active transport. “I think Maribyrnong could be the centre of cycling in Australia, we could be the cycling city in Australia,” she said. Councillor Gina Huynh said safe cycling has been a priority this council term. “We’ve already seen a number of successes such as the opening of the Quarry Park Mountain Bike Trails a few weeks ago … and lowering speed limits on a number of roads.” The draft Maribyrnong Bicycle Strategy is being sent for community consultation.

Teen care mission Hobsons Bay teenagers are running a ‘Teens Give Back’ Christmas appeal at a time of year when many are going without or struggling to provide the basics for their families. This year, the campaign will support West Welcome Wagon, a not-for-profit organisation supporting asylum seekers in the community. The appeal is co-ordinated by a network of parents raising teens, Bubbling Up! Parent Julie Du Plessis said 250 reusable bags would be handed to families across Hobsons Bay to work with their teenagers to fill with much-needed items for families in West Welcome Wagon’s care this Christmas. “It’s so important for our teenagers to understand the contribution they can make in their own community,” she said. It is supported by Compton Green Williamstown, Peachy Keen, Mesh Mash and local schools.

Suitable items include toiletry necessities, non-perishable food and children’s items such as books and board games. The appeal will be launched at Peachy Keen on Friday, November 15 and runs until December 4. People can pick up a bag from Compton Green at 29 Ferguson Street, Williamstown. Filled bags are returned to the same place by 5pm on December 4. Goya Dmytryshchak

Burglary accused granted bail By Goya Dmytryshchak An Altona North man accused of committing more than 30 offences while on a community corrections order, has been granted bail. Shaddy Mallouk, 23, is charged with multiple counts of burglary in Melbourne’s west, two counts of arson and other offences. The burglaries netted more than $100,000 of cigarettes and caused more than $650,000

in property damage, the Supreme Court of Victoria has heard. The court heard that the burglaries and thefts on commercial premises spanned from January 14 to June 4, during which time Mallouk was on an 18-month community corrections order after previously being convicted of burglary. Mallouk is due to appear at Werribee Magistrates Court on November 29 in relation to 22 incidents of non-compliance with his

community corrections order. He is scheduled to appear at the County Court on July 31, 2020, to face the burglary and arson charges. Mallouk was arrested after a June 4 burglary at a Seddon FoodWorks store, in which 300 packets of cigarettes were stolen. He applied for bail before the Melbourne Magistrates Court in July but was refused on the basis that he had failed to demonstrate a

compelling reason. He filed a new application for bail last month which succeeded. The Supreme Court granted bail with a $12,000 surety and conditions including that Mallouk is to reside with his parents in Douglas Street, Altona North, and must abide by a 10pm-6am curfew. He must also report to Altona North police station daily.

History of our streets Late historian Bruce Tait fell in love with Williamstown almost immediately after starting a job delivering telegrams as a teenager. Two volumes of books, The Streets of Williamstown A-L and M-Z, have been published based on painstaking research he carried out before his death in 2017. Jeff Otter, who worked with Tait’s daughter to get his third and last book printed, said it was a comprehensive and entertaining exploration of the history of the streets of Williamstown and its significant people and events. “The author’s fascination with Williamstown and its history began when delivering telegrams in Williamstown at the age of 14,” Mr Otter said. “He wrote in a memoir that ‘within a day of commencing at Williamstown I was in love with the place’. “Delivering telegrams gave him the opportunity to explore the streets of Williamstown, meet a number of prominent people and interesting characters, and delight

in the picturesque Strand and seaside.” Tait spent countless hours researching everything associated with Williamstown both at the local and state libraries. “In addition, the author attended innumerable house auctions to learn everything he could about the historic homes and streets,” Mr Otter said. “He didn’t want this information to be lost to posterity so he began documenting it.” The Streets of Williamstown is available to buy directly from Jeff Otter by calling or texting 0422 097 180 or from the following local businesses: Williamstown General Practitioners, 76 Electra Street; Novel Kitchen, 80 Ferguson Street; Jainus, 62 Douglas Parade; and Jim’s Self Storage, 217 Kororoit Creek Road.

Transplant brings joy By Ewen McRae Daniel Manic has had issues with his liver since he was a baby, but a transplant last year has given him a new lease on life. At just six-months-old, Daniel was diagnosed with Glycogen Storage Disease, a rare condition, similar to diabetes, that meant his body struggled to store sugars. With an often swollen liver, he said he always had a big belly, had to constantly monitor his diet, and as a kid he couldn’t take part in many of the sports his friends were playing. “I couldn’t play physical contact sport, because a little tap basically winded me,” Daniel said. “It was pretty shit to be honest. I had to be so careful. “I had a pretty strict diet. The worst thing was drinking cornflour mixed with water, which is probably the worst thing you could ever drink, but I needed it to keep my sugars up. “I went a bit off the rails as a teenager, just staying home all the time and didn’t want to do anything with my life, but I got it together.” In his early 20s, Daniel’s doctor told him he would likely be dead within eight years if he didn’t have a liver transplant, but it was nearly two years later before he put himself on the waiting list for the operation. “My mum was in the room and she burst into tears, but for me it didn’t really register,” he said. “It wasn’t until about 2017 that things changed and I put myself on the list.” Daniel had a transplant mid-way through 2018. At the same time, he was expecting the birth of his first child.

Hunter, arrived three months after his transplant. Just over a year since his transplant, and with Hunter about to turn one, Daniel is looking forward to many more years ahead. “I’ve had no complications,” he said. “I don’t have to drink cornflour any more, which is the best thing, and I’ve got a flat stomach for the first time in my life.

To have Hunter sitting here with me, it’s been a big year.” While organ donation in Australia is anonymous, Daniel wrote a letter to the family of his liver donor to thank them for giving him a second chance. “I struggled to put into words how I felt,” he said. “I said thank you, and told them how it had helped me. I’m obviously sorry for their loss, but I’m grateful for what they’ve given me. I’ll never forget it.” The National Thank You Day, to honour all organ and tissue donors and their families, is this Sunday, November 17.

MY PLACE The importance of place in our sense of who we are is central to the writing and life of Seddon author Meg Mundell. She speaks with Benjamin Millar. My partner and I moved out west six years ago, when our son was a baby. We wanted to live close to the city – but not too close. Inner westies seem to feel a strong attachment to the area, and there’s a real sense of community. It’s a welcoming place. We love it. What do you like most about the area? I like the industrial history, all the old buildings, and being close to both the city and the sea. And I love the fact that not everyone around here looks exactly like me: it’s really culturally diverse. Being a migrant I feel at home in a community that’s made up of so many different cultures. What are your favourite local places? Maribyrnong River for walks, bike rides, or a cruise on The Blackbird with local legend Captain Peter Somerville. For fresh air, Footscray Park, Altona beach, Williamstown back beach and Newport Lakes. For food, Barkly Street in Footscray, Little Man in Seddon and One For the Crow in Maidstone.

also makes you wonder, and think. Most of all, I hope people get swept up in the story and the characters’ lives. What is the idea behind your story collection We Are Here? We Are Here is a collection of true stories written by people who’ve experienced homelessness. The goal was to create something beautiful, amplify overlooked voices, and challenge a few myths and stereotypes. It was hugely rewarding working with the 37 talented writers, some of whom live locally. Are you currently working on any other projects? I’m writing some academic articles, gearing up for writers’ festivals, and chatting with the screenwriter who’s adapting The Trespassers for TV. I’m also planning to co-write a children’s book with a friend, Hassan. My mum Pam Mundell is an artist, so we’ve recruited her to illustrate it. What is something people may be surprised to learn about you?

What inspired you to write your new fiction work The Trespassers?

Since I’m from New Zealand, maybe this isn’t so surprising, but I know how to shear a sheep!

The Trespassers was inspired by Australia’s history of migration, our attitudes to outsiders, and a fascination with the sea. My aim was to write a page-turner with heart, a mystery that

Meg Mundell’s new novel The Trespassers (UQP) and her edited collection We Are Here: Stories of Home, Place & Belonging (Affirm Press) are now available from your local bookshop, or online.

Foot, knee and leg pain is ‌ well, a pain, so it’s rather remarkable that Williamstown has in its midst a leading podiatric expert – with international and Australia-wide patients – who could end the search for relief. Dr Paul Dowie, man of science, former Olympic squad member and, by all accounts, an all-round good bloke, offers his renowned treatments and eye-opening advice at any one of the five Foot and Leg Pain Clinics that he’s founded across Melbourne including, of course, Willy. Dr Dowie has helped all types, from seniors with arthritic knee pain and children with growth pain to tradies and elite athletes from all fields including eight of the world’s number one tennis players, to name a few. A former long-distance runner and Olympic taekwondo contender, Dr Dowie understands pain at a personal level. After injury ended his sporting career and Olympic dream, it propelled him to focus on helping others with their foot and leg pain and injuries. He had already completed a science degree majoring in anatomy and physiology, followed by an honours degree

in exercise physiology, and a four year degree in podiatric medicine, so it wasn’t a stretch to become a doctor specialising in foot, knee and leg concerns. Dr Dowie says his treatment plans aim to achieve long-term pain relief, increased mobility, improved foot, ankle and knee function, and increased joint and tissue strength and condition depending on individual requirements. “Treatments can also heal soft-tissue injuries, and regenerate knee, ankle and toe joints and tissues in cases of arthritis,� explains Dr Dowie. “They can also modify and correct postural concerns, faulty foot and leg function and assist in children’s growth and development issues, as well as eliminate the need for anti-inflammatories and medications. “I’ve treated patients who’d previously been told knee replacement or surgery was their only option, and helped them to avoid or prolong these, which is so rewarding as a practitioner.� Foot & Leg Pain Clinics, 90 Ferguson Street, Williamstown.

Cornell Diesel Systems is world class Launched in 1973, Cornell Diesel Systems has expanded into a world-class, ISO-certified diesel fuel injection and engine sub-systems specialist business in Sunshine West. Cornell’s state-of-the-art diesel centre houses a combination of diesel pump rooms and an extensive diesel mechanical workshop. Operations Manager Anthony Grech says Cornells is the only facility in Australia authorised to remanufacture DENSO injectors, and is an authorised service dealer for all major diesel fuel system OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) in Australia. “In addition to diesel fuel injection services, we offer a large diesel workshop that accommodates cars, 4WDs, vans, trucks and buses. We provide vehicle diagnostics and repair on all diesel makes and models,” Anthony says.

of service in the quickest time possible.” Cornells supplies only genuine OEM parts in their repairs and remanufactures to ensure parts meet exact specifications, quality and reliability. “Our aim is to be at the forefront of diesel technology,” Anthony says. “We keep abreast of what’s happening in our industry and are agile, so that enables us to quickly reinvest to keep our existing equipment in optimal condition and our employees equipped with the latest technology. Diesel performance products – such as power modules, turbos, exhausts and intercoolers – are a growing part of the business.

“When it comes to replacing diesel components on a vehicle, cleanliness plays an important role. We take great measures to ensure that we reduce the risk of contaminants and have ducts for eliminating exhaust fumes from the workshop areas.

“In 2019, we became the southern distributor for PWR performance products that – alongside products from Steinbauer, Redback, Garrett, Borg Warner and Holset – has extended our range of high quality performance upgrades. Our long-term goal is to be your one stop shop for all your diesel needs, big and small.”

“Our skilled technicians and mechanics are OEM-trained in diesel diagnostics and repair, and have access to multiple Dynos, modern test equipment, and our extensive inventory of new and remanufactured diesel parts. This helps ensure that we consistently provide a high level

Where there’s a will there’s Local Lawyers Local Lawyers aim to take the confusion out of navigating common legal situations

It is advisable for everyone to have a Will. When you die, your assets (Estate) will pass to the people that you nominate in your Will. If you do not have a Will, you are regarded as passing INTESTATE (not interstate, as in another State) and a “league ladder” of beneficiaries, starting from your next of kin, may share your Estate. Rarely, in the absence of any close relatives, the Estate may be forfeited to the government. For older people, it is also a good idea to have a Power of Attorney to allow a trusted relative or friend to have power to sign documents on your behalf during your lifetime should you become unable to do so. A Medical Treatment Appointment also allows you to appoint a person to assist you with medical decisions and treatment.

Probate The assets that a person owns at the date of their death are collectively known as that person’s Estate. Typically, this will consist of a family home and a bank account. Sometimes there may be shares or an investment property, superannuation or an accommodation bond.

person can be dealt with unless the Executor named in the Will, or an Administrator in the case of intestacy, obtains a Grant of Probate or Administration. To obtain such a Grant, the Executor or Administrator must make an application to the Registrar of Probates and prove: • Death, by filing a certified copy of the Death Certificate; • The Will, by filing the original Will; • The Assets, by filing an Inventory of Assets prepared after investigation of the deceased’s affairs. Superannuation may be an asset of the Estate, or the deceased may have signed a Binding Death Benefit Nomination directing the benefit to one or more beneficiaries. Trustees of Superannuation Funds have wide discretion in relation to the allocation of benefits to family members.

Family Provision Orders (or Part IV Claims) Whilst the law recognises the basic right for a person to leave their assets to whoever they wish to by their Will, the law also recognises a competing obligation for that person to recognise a “moral obligation” to people who may be dependant on the deceased at the

Albion Mews, a boutique community of 16 tri-level townhouses from Spice Property Developments, will add a splash of sophistication to Albion, a lesser known suburb many are gravitating to for its gentrification trajectory and fab location, writes Carole Levy. A suburb of less than 5000 residents, Albion neighbours vibrant Sunshine and has scenic Kororoit Creek forming its western border. It’s like a secret enclave, one well worth discovering. Next-door Sunshine – a five-minute car trip from Albion Mews – is designated as a Super Hub, with Melbourne Airport Rail Link and the Sunshine National Employment and Innovation Cluster part of significant plans for this increasingly important inner-west area. Albion receives all the advantages of increasing opportunities, yet remains a quiet suburb with the streets mainly used only by people living there. New cafes and restaurants are moving in as a response to Albion’s evolution, childcare through to tertiary education are all within easy reach, a major shopping centre is five minutes away, and Sunshine and Joan Kirner Children’s hospitals are 10. Sunshine’s multicultural café precinct is practically around the corner. Ethiopian, Somalian, Afghan, Indian, Vietnamese and Chinese, among others, are all represented, with many the subject of wellregarded food critics.

Albion Mews commands close consideration for

first-home buyers and young families

The sawtooth roof, which was popular during the industrial revolution, has re-emerged as an environmental-efficient design that provides natural lighting into buildings. The red bricks reflect the suburb’s heritage.

And a bit further afield, Footscray Market and Highpoint are in the mix of destinations within 15minute car trips.

Visually appealing and with a focus on functionality, Albion Mews is created for young adults and growing families who will value the personal sanctuary feel of the mews design, as well as the elegance, clean lines and comfort of quality finishes.

Martino Leah Architects was inspired by the rich heritage of Albion and drew upon the industrial history of the area.

Each townhouse has engineered timber flooring, a spacious kitchen with stone benches and gas cooking appliances, a roomy open-plan living

NEWPORT 75 Woods Street, 3015 Greg Hocking Elly Partners: 8387 0000

Price: $1.6 million – $1.7 million

Replete with luxe at every turn, this lovely newer build fits right in with its mid-century neighbours, although it could very well be considered the best on street. The property has everything discerning buyers look for, including a glistening pool out back. The house has four bedrooms, three upstairs ranging around a living room/ retreat and sumptuous main bathroom with an oval tub and a streamlined vanity with undermount basin. The lavish main bedroom up here has a sleek en suite, while the downstairs main/guest bedroom also

has an en suite – and a powder room is across the way. The colour palette is greys and white, with plantation shutters on most windows, and drifty sheers in the upstairs main bedroom. Everything is bright, spacious and oozes refinement. Honey-toned hardwood floorboards begin in the entry hall and head past an open study, under-stair storage, powder room and laundry. A large picture window framing dense leafiness is a striking feature in the dining zone, while a full-width window

splashback in the kitchen is another terrific natural light magnet. In the superior kitchen, a soft-grey Caesarstone island bench has open timber shelves beneath that match seamless upper cabinetry, while white lower cabinetry (all soft-close) includes lots of pot drawers. These accompany a butler’s pantry, a concealed dishwasher and gas cooktop and Pyrolux wall oven.

consistent excellence. Out back, a covered alfresco with grey pavers underfoot links with a strip of turf preceding the glass-fenced solar-heated salt pool. A slatted timber pergola perches on more lawn beside the pool, and dense plantings screen all fences. Still under builder’s warranty, the house is within a 10-minute walk of Newport Lakes Reserve, and the station is a four-minute bike ride away. Carole Levy

Close to Williamstown beach, the railway station, Williamstown High School as well as plethora of eateries and shops, this three-bedroom post war house has a great deal to offer. A buttercream-toned weatherboard finish and beautifully established garden are the façade to bright interiors, beginning with a spacious living room. Here, an open plan design, neatly enhanced by tall ceilings and a bulkhead, integrates a large lounge room with gas heater and a light-filled, street-facing dining room. The lounge room leads to a sunny kitchen where classic fittings capture a sense of the era. This overlooks a north-facing backyard with a thriving garden, sheds, and paved and decked areas for undercover entertainment. Three generous bedrooms all share an airy family bathroom. Picture rails, pendant lights, a car port and ample off-street parking are part of the deal.

This three-bedroom townhouse is located close to vibrant Williamstown and holds plenty of appeal. A smart façade of rendered brick and stonework blends into the surrounding environment and the interiors, comprising timber floorboards and neutral walls, are equally pleasing. A lounge room at the entrance could easily make an airy study, while further into the house, the living space draws a family and meals’ area together harmoniously. This zone leads to an intimate courtyard on one side as well as a decked, undercover entertainment area on the other. The living area is also connected to an on-point kitchen that has stone-topped benches, stainless-steel appliances and attractive splashbacks to add both style and function. Meanwhile, a main bedroom nearby has a walk-in robe and en suite, while the additional bedrooms also have built-in robes and share a central bathroom.

NEWPORT 57 Peel Street, 3015 Williams Real Estate: 9397 2000

Price: $800,000 – $880,000

Ageless beauty awaits discerning investors or couples in this two-bedroom house. An all-cream finish from picket fence to weatherboard panels, steel roof and traditional filigree present an eye-catching facade. Inside, the palette takes a step up with rich timber accents, including some fixtures and the floors. These lead from the entry to the delightful modern lounge room at the centre of the dwelling. Here, a more contemporary look and a split-system are softened by a striking fireplace and a gorgeous pendant light suspended from cathedral ceilings. A doorway leads to the open area at the rear of the house where the kitchen, complete with beautiful timber cabinets and subway tile splashback, meets the dining area. A sliding door leads from here out to a relaxed deck and undercover living zone and out further into the yard, there is another, paved living area. The main bedroom at the front of the house is graced with a beautiful fireplace and built-in robe and there is an additional bedroom, also with built-in storage. Both rooms have access to a central, airy bathroom with striking timber and brass finishes and glass leadlight inserts taking centre stage. The house also has hydronic heating and a garden shed, and offers side access.

SPORT More than a game for Footscray ANA legend

Spiros Koziaris holds the games record for Footscray ANA. (Damjan Janevski) 200393_01

Spiros Koziaris has created his own slice of history, becoming the first Footscray ANA Cricket Club player to reach 400 games. Koziaris has long held the games record at ANA but 400 was previously seen as mission impossible for the club that was founded in 1931. “It’s nearly 40 years of cricket and it doesn’t come quickly,” Koziaris said. “It’s a lot of work and you have to try and keep the body fit because I’m over 50 now.” Koziaris views cricket a little more differently to the youngster that played his first game in the juniors at Footscray ANA. Now 53, making a high score or taking a swag of wickets is not the be all and end all that it might have once been. The off spinner still relishes the competitiveness of cricket, but it is the friendships and health benefits that he holds dearly now.

“I do love the game, but it’s the friends, there’s four or five of us who have played 35 to 40 years together, that make it pretty special,” Koziaris said. “We really have a great laugh. “We don’t take ourselves too seriously.” Koziaris believes community cricket is more important than ever before. As the secretary at Footscray ANA, he promotes the club to outsiders, welcomes new players to the fold and tries to entice former players back. He believes one of the big reasons people are returning to ANA is for the mental health benefits of being active and being around like-minded people. “Apart from the game, it’s about having a really good laugh and any troubles we have disappear for awhile,” Koziaris said. “Let’s try and get some of the old blokes back who might be having a bit of a hard time with

different things in life. When they come to the club, it gives them a bit of a boost.” Koziaris’ 400th game coincided with another special Footscray ANA milestone. John Verdino, a crafty medium pacer, took his 900th wicket for the club, also a record that has never been achieved prior to this season. “It was pretty special being on the ground at the same time John took his 900th wicket,” Koziaris said. The big question now is whether Verdino can get to the 1000. “I reckon I’ll probably play my 500th and he’ll take his 1000th at around the same time,” Koziaris said with a laugh. Above all, Koziaris wanted to thank his family for their support in his cricket endeavours over the years. Lance Jenkinson

A-League - Round 5 Western United 2 (Durante 13, Appiah-Kubi 58) d Western Sydney Wanderers 1 (Duke 5) Western United forward Kwabena Appiah-Kubi celebrates his match-winning goal. (Luke Hemer) 200394_33

United’s sweet victory By Lance Jenkinson Western United produced a come-from-behind 2-1 win over Western Sydney Wanderers to send a message to the contenders in the A-League at GMHBA Stadium on Saturday night. It was a case of home sweet home for United, who celebrated victory on home soil for the first time with their previous two wins coming on the road. United coach Mark Rudan was impressed with the brand of football displayed by his team on a chilly night in Geelong, but also delighted with the never-say-die attitude of the players, who won after trailing for the second consecutive week. “It was a big win and thoroughly deserved, I must say,” Rudan said. “We’ve done it again, showed true test of character, once again resilience and once again we stayed true to our principles of play. “I thought it was a much more comprehensive performance [compared to last week] and we thoroughly deserved to win tonight against a side that was top of the table before the round started, so really pleased with them.”

Western United thrived in a back-to-the-wall situation again. Another slow start for United saw them trailing after a Mitchell Duke goal five minutes in. The slow starts for United have been a source of frustration for Rudan, who admits it is a concern. Another speed bump for Western United was a hamstring injury to experienced playmaker Panagiotis Kone. The severity of Kone’s injury is to be revealed, but he will be a big loss to the team. “It’s a hamstring and we’re always very cautious,” Rudan said. In between Duke’s goal for Western Sydney and Kone’s injury, Western United found an equaliser through an unlikely source. United central defender Andrew Durante rose at the far post to score a crisply timed goal with a header from a delightful Alessandro Diamanti corner in the 13th minute. It was a rare goal for Durante – his first in five years in the A-League. “I didn’t even know the last time I scored a goal,” Durante said. “It’s great to not only get on the scoresheet,

52 MARIBYRNONG & HOBSONS BAY STAR WEEKLY Wednesday, 13 November, 2019

but to level the game for the team was fantastic.” With Kone off, Western United had to go to plan B. Rudan re-shuffled his line-up, moving Connor Chapman to defensive midfield and bringing on Aaron Calver to play in defence. Both moves worked a treat as United took a stranglehold over the game. Chapman impressed with his ability to both defend assertively and apply a quick counter. His transition into the midfield after playing the first month of the season as a defender was seamless. Western United’s winning goal came in the 58th minute through Kwabena Appiah-Kubi. United defender Ersan Gulum scuffed his shot, but it turned into an assist when Appiah-Kubi gathered the ball, turned and powered his shot past Wanderers goalkeeper Daniel Lopar. Western United has a headache at the selection table ahead of Saturday night’s clash with Newcastle Jets at GMHBA Stadium. Besart Berisha is likely to return to the line-up after he was rested for the Wanderers game, but will Appiah-Kubi return to the bench after a strong outing?

Cricket Footscray powered its way to a 56-run win over Camberwell Magpies in the Victorian Premier Cricket at Merv Hughes Oval on Sunday. The Bulldogs made an imposing 8-261 off its 50 overs on the back of starring roles from Travis Dean (101 off 120) and Daniel Sartori (58 off 74). Camberwell was bowled out for 205 in the 49th over with Bulldogs opening bowler Jordan Buckingham doing most of the damage with 3-31. Footscray will host Northcote in a two-day game at Merv Hughes Oval starting on Saturday.

Baseball Newport Rams are rock bottom of the Baseball Victoria summer league division 1 ladder. The Rams were pipped 1-0 by Fitzroy Lions in a low scoring struggle on Sunday. In division 2, Williamstown Wolves smashed the Preston Pirates 12-0. The Wolves are riding high in third spot on the ladder.

Bowls Altona continued on its merry way in the Bowls Victoria premier division. The undefeated A’s pummelled Caulfield Park 95-61. Yarraville-Footscray fell agonisingly short of a first win of the season. The Bulldogs went down 78-77 on the road against Essendon.

SPORT

Teen takes on the best By Lance Jenkinson It has been such a hectic and rewarding season for Deer Park taekwondo sensation Reba Stewart that she has not had a moment to truly reflect on her great achievements in 2019. With sport and study for year 12 exams, there has been little downtime for the hard-working Stewart. When reading a list of some of her achievements on the taekwondo mat, including gold medals at the Australian Open, Oceania Championships and Pacific Games, Stewart finally realises how far she has come in the sport. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is a bit surreal,â&#x20AC;? Stewart said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s been such a hectic year, I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t had a lot of time to stop and reflect. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I havenâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t been in this sport for a very long time, but the amount that Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done in the short amount of time, I feel like Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m really doing well at the moment.â&#x20AC;? Stewartâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s moment of arrival on the world stage came at this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s world championships in Manchester. The 18-year-old was staring down the worldâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best taekwondo players and more than held her own. A top 16 finish was an incredible result for a teenager facing competitors upwards of 10 years older with more experience. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think that was definitely my highlight of the year,â&#x20AC;? Stewart said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was in Manchester and it was a really big comp with so many different countries. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The atmosphere there was a lot different from all of the other competitions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was the world championships â&#x20AC;&#x201C; itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s one of the highest comps you can be at.â&#x20AC;? Stewart took so much learning out of the worlds.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;The way they fight, you just know how much training, effort and time they put into becoming the best athletes in the world,â&#x20AC;? Stewart said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I came up against a ranked No. 2 in the world.â&#x20AC;? Stewart was primed to perform her best at the competition. A training camp in Jordan leading up had her in a strong mental and physical state. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I came up against a 26-year-old woman,â&#x20AC;? she said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m in the heavyweight category, plus-73 kilos, so thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s some big girls. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I really liked how I performed. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It was the best preparation Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve done for a competition beforehand.â&#x20AC;? Now that she has mixed it with the best taekwondo players in the world, the sky is the limit for Stewart. Her dream of one day representing Australia at an Olympics is a step closer. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Fighting them, youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the stage with them, so you feel like you belong there,â&#x20AC;? Stewart said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on the same mat as them, so I know that I can become the best that I can be as well. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I can become top 10 in the world, top five in the world, or I could be No. 1 one day.â&#x20AC;? Stewart trains under coach Jerry Moraitis at Hallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Taekwondo in Tullamarine. She has just completed her year 12 studies at Maribyrnong College. Stewart is the November nominee for the Don Deeble Rising Star award. The award, hosted by the Sunshine Western Region Sports Club and Star Weekly, recognises young athletes from the western suburbs who have achieved outstanding results at state and or national levels. Stewart will receive $1000 and other prizes, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club to assist her in achieving her sports goals.
