Hello pumpkin
(Shawn Smits)
Pumpkins are popping up all over town and Jeff Jones Plants and Produce has its fair share on display. With the harvest season in full swing, various varieties of the golden vegetable are now available, and not just to eat. Produce store owners Jeff and Glenda Jones are welcoming visitors to take photos with their pumpkin displays to help raise money for a good cause. The newest additions to the crop are two Atlantic Giant pumpkins, the largest weighing in at 184 kilograms. For a gold coin donation, visitors to the store can take their photo with the vegetable giants. Mrs Jones says they want to use the opportunity to raise money for the Bacchus Marsh and Melton Regional Hospital. “We just thought it would be a nice thing, to have a gold coin donation for a local charity,” Mrs Jones said. The Atlantic Giant pumpkins are not edible and are purely for display. The Joneses purchased these particular ones from a Melton grower. Mrs Jones says they usually sell for about $40 to $50 and many people, such as restaurant and cafe owners, buy pumpkins for decoration purposes year-round. The Joneses are yet to finish harvesting their own pumpkins but already have a lot of varieties for sale, including a range of heritage pumpkins. CAITLIN MORRIS

Fireys fight for Fiskville The local community is pushing for the controversial Fiskville CFA training facility to reopen, despite the state government’s announcement last week the centre would be closed forever. The level of community support for Fiskville is rapidly growing amid reports that the facility is being permanently closed due to chemical contamination. Last week, after 550 tests at the site, the
Country Fire Authority board unanimously recommended the site close forever. Results from the tests showed the drinking water and showers were clear of contamination, but high levels of the toxic chemical PFOS were found around the fire training area and in a new zone where the chemicals had previously not been detected. Minister for Emergency Services Jane Garrett said despite previous clean-ups, Fiskville could “no longer operate safely as a training ground”. “Our immediate concern is for the people
at Fiskville and we are working closely with the CFA and the affected staff to assist them through this difficult change,” she said. A Facebook group, Proud to Support Fiskville, created by the Ballan fire brigade, has already gained more than 2000 “likes” in about a week. The support has also grown beyond Facebook, with an active Save Fiskville campaign now in motion. Lieutenant Ian Ireland, of the Ballan brigade, said he was “devastated” at the news of Fiskville’s closure, describing the facility as

At a meeting on Friday, Ms Garrett, CFA chief executive officer Michael Wooten, CFA chief officer Euan Ferguson and Emergency Services Commissioner Craig Lapsley addressed the community. Mr Ireland said the meeting cleared up none of the concerns and it remained unclear what would happen to the 60 employees at Fiskville.

Police are on the hunt for three men who robbed an elderly Ballan couple at knifepoint last Monday. The couple were tied up in their Ballan home while three armed robbers stole guns and cash about 9am. The man and woman, both in their 80s, were in bed when the three men entered their Ballan-Greendale Road property. It is believed the men, armed with knives, forced their way into the couple’s gun cabinet and stole firearms. The couple received minor injuries during the incident and were treated by paramedics at the scene. Police said the couple was then taken to Ballan Hospital as a precaution. Ballarat police’s Detective Senior Sergeant David Hermit said the robbers were in and out of the house in a short period of time. “We have no specific description of the vehicle … we’ve been told they left in a dark-coloured sedan,” Detective Senior Sergeant Hermit said. He said the couple were shaken following the incident. About three police cars and an ambulance were on the scene about 10am and the Moorabool police crime investigation unit took statements from the couple. Police investigations are continuing. Anyone with information can call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at crimestoppersvic.com.au. Yasemin Talat, with the Ballarat Courier

SES opens its doors The Melton State Emergency Service is inviting the community to its SES headquarters next Saturday. The open day will give the public a chance to find out about the Melton unit and provide insights into becoming volunteers, Melton SES controller Nicolas Gargalakos says. “It’s just about public awareness of what the SES does and a [chance] for people to have a look around at all the equipment and the vehicles,” Mr Gargalakos said. “We’re just opening up a new shed, so we’ll be showing that off as well.” Mr Gargalakos, a public servant, has been volunteering with the SES for eight years and says he’s enjoyed giving back to the community. “I started doing it as a hobby,” he said. “I was looking to be able to contribute in some way to the community and to give something back and this was a great avenue.”
Mr Gargalakos said the most rewarding part about volunteering with the SES was helping out during major disasters, such as the Black Saturday fires, or finding someone alive after a ‘search and rescue’. The Melton SES unit “looks after” storm and flood damage, undertakes search and rescue operations, assists police in the municipality and responds in other areas if needed. Mr Gargalakos encouraged people who were willing to get their hands dirty, could commit spare time and enjoyed helping others to don the orange suit. The open day is from 10am-2pm on April 11, at 90-92 High Street. Call 9746 0519 for details. Sumeyya Ilanbey Volunteer Rod Fraser, Nicolas Gargalakos and volunteer Simon Rodger. (Joe Mastroianni)
Burn off but do it right, says CFA The fire danger period for Melton ended last week, with the Country Fire Authority saying rainfall and cool conditions meant residents could now clean up their properties. However, CFA duty officer Ross Sullivan urged people still to do the right thing by checking local laws and registering their burn-offs. “Every year our brigades get more and more frustrated at the number of false alarm calls they have to respond to as a result of people not registering burns,” Mr Sullivan said.
“Calls to unregistered burn-offs take volunteer firefighters away from workplaces, families and potentially genuine emergencies.” CFA district 14 acting operations manager Trevor Roberts said it was still important for the community to be aware of fire safety in and around the home. “The majority do register their burn-offs, but we need to ensure we have better compliance in terms of registering,” Mr Roberts said. He reminded everyone to check smoke alarms and “change your clock, change your batteries” when daylight saving ended.

Funds ensure safety, shelter By Sumeyya Ilanbey The federal government has thrown a two-year lifeline to homelessness services. Social Services Minister Scott Morrison last week announced $230 million in funding for the National Partnership Agreement on Homelessness (NPAH) and said priority would be given to services working with victims of family violence and homeless youth under 18. “We have brought forward this announcement ahead of the May budget to give providers of homelessness services across Australia more certainty, enabling them to get on with their work of helping some of our most
vulnerable people,” Mr Morrison said. Women’s Health West (WHW) chief executive Robyn Gregory said key programs to divert women away from homelessness would have ended without the funding. In the past financial year, WHW used NPAH funds to provide a 24-hour crisis response for 6209 women, install 187 “security measures” to improve the safety of 85 women and 111 children, and provide court support to 62 women to obtain intervention orders which forced the perpetrators of family violence to leave the family home. “While this extension is more limited than our request, the news gives our staff some
security as well as the important promise of ongoing services for women and children … in crisis,” Dr Gregory said. North and West Homelessness Network coordinator Sarah Langmore also welcomed the decision. “It’s very hard to provide a continuity of services when there’s no confirmation of funding,” she said. “We support thousands of individuals and households in the west and those services are primarily dependent on [NPAH] funding.” Ms Langmore said about 150 families and individuals presented every month seeking help for homelessness.
Mr Morrison called on state and territory governments to match the funding “to allow for continuity of homelessness services across Australia”. But state Housing Minister Martin Foley said the Victorian government had not received details of the proposed federal package. “The Andrews Labor government committed to a three-year agreement to provide more certainty and we call on the federal government to match the three years,” Mr Foley said. “We’ll also work with the federal government to understand what this announcement means for services and our most vulnerable as there has been very little consultation to date.”
Helping fireys is a gas Marsh that the brigade was able to protect the community. “The brigade would not be able to function without people and donations like this; it just wouldn’t happen,” he said. “I think it’s terrific that a local business is supporting a local fire brigade. “We are very grateful for the support of the community and of local businesses who get behind their local emergency services.” Foodworks Bacchus Marsh supermarket owners Susan Lau and Alex Ng said they were happy to do their bit in helping the community. Ms Lau said it was important to help the brigade, which in turn helped the community. Yasemin Talat

Moorabool and Melton councils are encouraging their communities to take on the Premier’s Active April challenge. In Active April, starting tomorrow, Premier Daniel Andrews is encouraging everyone to do 30 minutes of physical activity every day. Moorabool mayor Paul Tatchell said the challenge provided a great opportunity to make exercise a regular part of the day. He said the council was getting behind the initiative and he hoped the community would jump on board. Moorabool council will host a local ‘pram walk’ in Bacchus Marsh on April 20. “As well as hitting the 30 minutes of activity for that day, the walk will give people a chance to meet new people and do something healthy,” Cr Tatchell said. “All interested playgroups and
local mums, dads and carers with or without prams are invited to come along for the walk.” Melton council will host an Active April Fun Day at Willows Historical Park from 10am-2pm on April 9. Activities will include mini-golf, ball games, giant chess, cricket activities and face painting for children. People taking part in Active April can download the official app to track their physical activity. By registering for Active April, participants also receive offers such as 10 free YMCA passes. To register and for more information, visit www.activeapril.vic.gov.au. For details on council activities, call Melton on 9747 7200 or Moorabool on 5366 7100.
A 46-year-old Melton West man was found dead inside his four-wheel-drive on Sunday after it veered off the Western Freeway and tumbled into Toolern Creek near Melton Botanic Garden. The incident is believed to have occurred in the early hours of the morning, but it wasn’t until 11.30am that the wreckage of the Toyota Landcruiser was spotted by passers-by. Police believe the vehicle may have clipped the road’s railing before flipping down the embankment. It was partially submerged in the water when found. The driver, who was the sole occupant of the vehicle, died at the scene. Police are now investigating whether speed, fatigue, drugs or alcohol were factors in the crash. Victoria Police’s Acting Senior Sergeant Liam Gardner said these factors were not a good mix. “Speed, alcohol or drugs – none of those things mix with driving.” He said it was a timely reminder leading into Easter for drivers to take more care on the roads. The death of the man takes the state’s annual road toll to 70, three more than at the same time last year. Melton police are still investigating the circumstances of the accident and are keen to speak to any witnesses. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at www. crimestoppersvic.com.au. Yasemin Talat

Ambo response times lengthen By Sumeyya Ilanbey
The Ambulance Performance and Policy Consultative Committee, chaired by the Ambulance Services Minister Jill Hennessy, is seeking feedback on its proposed reforms from paramedics and the community, with final recommendations to be provided to the state government by the end of the year. “Population growth, changing demographics, chronic illness and high community expectations are increasing the demand on health services including ambulance services,” the interim report states. “This demand is expected to continue to grow as these factors become more pronounced.” In the metropolitan region, the number of code 1 emergencies has increased by 6.4
Ambulance response times for critically ill Melton patients have dramatically increased since 2008, a report released this month reveals. The Working With Paramedics To End The Ambulance Crisis interim report compared average response times in 2013-14 with those in 2008-09. Only 58 per cent of code 1 calls were responded to within 15 minutes (the state government’s benchmark) in 2013-14, compared with 75 per cent in 2008-09. The average Melton response time increased from 12.32 minutes to 15.40 minutes in the past financial year.
‘‘
calls received an ambulance within 15 minutes in 2014. In Cardinia (in the city’s east) and Melton, 58 per cent of Code 1’s were responded to in the same timeframe. A former Melton paramedic who didn’t want to be named told Star Weekly that resourcing was a “huge” issue in the municipality. “The number of resources covering a large population in a large geographical area is a problem,” the paramedic said. “And there isn’t a local hospital for us to take patients to. We are commuting significant distances in our geographical area. “If we get ramped up in hospitals or diverted, that means there are no ambulances in the area.”

Briefs Bars used in carjack
Two men with metal bars carjacked a vehicle on Cambrian Way Melton about 5.30am last Monday. The car’s occupants, a man and a woman, were ordered from the vehicle before the two offenders drove off. The grey 2009 Holden Clubsport has been spotted in Melton several times since and police said the driver had tried to engage police in pursuits. It is believed the victims and the car may have been specifically targeted.
Cop accused of rape

Mum gets it all write Allison Falzon has scored $1000 for her son’s school as one of five winners across Australia in a national writing competition. Ms Falzon, whose son Mason goes to St Anthony’s Primary School in Melton South, entered the competition for fun after seeing it pop up on her Facebook feed. The nation-wide competition, run by pen company Bic, surveyed teachers and parents about how they encouraged fun handwriting. The campaign “Fight for your write” was aimed at raising awareness of the falling rate of literacy and to highlight the importance of handwriting. Five winners were announced last week, including Ms Falzon, from Mount Cottrell, who received a $1000 cheque for St Anthony’s
Primary School and $150 of Bic stationery for sons Mason and Jakim. Ms Falzon said she was very surprised by the win and happy to help Mason’s school. Her winning entry highlighted what she and her family did to encourage fun handwriting in their home, in less than 25 words. Ms Falzon said she and her husband and sons made up stories by adding a few words each. The boys would then copy what had been written and draw pictures to complete the story. “It gets very interesting and creative and very funny,” Ms Falzon said. She and the school will now discuss how the money can contribute to the literacy program.
A leading senior constable from the western region has been charged with rape. The police officer, who was suspended over an alleged incident in January, was charged in February with two counts of recklessly causing injury following a Professional Standards Command investigation. Last week the officer was charged over an alleged sexual offence which happened in a private home on January 26 while he was off duty. The officer remains suspended without pay and will appear in Geelong Magistrates’ Court on April 9.
Works starts on sport precinct
Work on the $11.3 million Bridge Road sports precinct has started. The Melton South development will feature an athletics track, field facilities, hockey pitches, a community pavilion and a storage building. The site will be landscaped
with trees, a garden, grassed areas and spectator viewing mounds. Stage one of the precinct is expected to be completed by June next year.
Ice, guns seized in search
A “significant” quantity of ‘ice’ and cannabis was seized from a home in Kurunjang last week. Five unregistered guns and money, believed to be the proceeds of drug trafficking, were also seized. The discovery was the result of a search warrant at a property on Maree Court last week. A 38-year-old Kurunjang man was arrested and charged with drugs and firearms offences and was remanded in custody.
Thieves hit display homes
Two display homes in Peppermint Grove, Taylors Hill were broken into about midnight on March 22. Police believe the offenders used a ute or trailer to transport a bedside table and shower rose they stole. Despite an increased police presence, there have been a number of similar offences at homes being built during the past few weekends.
Rotary shed loses gear
The Rotary Club of Melton Valley’s shed at Brooklyn Road, Melton South was broken into some time between March 1 and March 24. A whipper snipper, pump and a data projector were stolen. Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

An op to help the kids Melton’s savvy shoppers are being invited to snap up a bargain for a good cause. Melton Uniting Church’s Op Shop will donate all proceeds from sales on Thursday, April 2, to the Royal Children’s Hospital Good Friday Appeal. Manager Tony Fielder says everything in the shop will also be half-price on Thursday. “I believe most of my customers have had some dealing with the Royal Children’s Hospital and it’s only right we give something back to it,” Mr Fielder said. This is the second year the op shop will raise and donate money to the Good Friday Appeal. Last year’s effort raised $1606.45 and this year’s target is $2000. A sausage sizzle and morning tea awaits

hungry shoppers, while those feeling extra generous can pop unwanted change into donation tins on the counter. “The response from the customers last year was excellent and they really appreciated what we did,” Mr Fielder said. “Everyone was very encouraging.” He said everyone was welcome to donate their second-hand goodies and what was not sold at their store was shipped as a donation to Malaysia. The fundraising effort will be from 10am-3pm on Thursday, April 2, at the Melton Uniting Church’s Op Shop, 18-20 Brooklyn Road, Melton South. Sumeyya Ilanbey

The junior school council at Melton South Primary hosted its first fundraising event for the year last week, helping to do its bit for the Good Friday Appeal. Pupils were invited to come to school out of uniform and with a gold coin donation. The casual dress day was a hit with the pupils, who helped the school raise about $720 for the appeal. Grade 6 teacher Ben Bykersma said the contributions of all involved had helped raise a “sizeable sum”. He said casual days were “very, very popular” as the pupils loved to come to school out of uniform. This year the junior school council is about four times bigger than in previous years due to a strong interest from pupils in joining.
About 40 pupils from grade 5 and 6 make up the council, which previously has had only a dozen pupils on board. Mr Bykersma said the school’s leadership program encouraged pupils to take on roles with the junior school council, the choir and sports so as to experience responsibility and leadership. He said the eagerness of pupils to be involved was amazing and many applications had been received to join the council. The junior school council is made up of three sub-committees, which look after fundraisers, school assemblies and play-time activities for younger pupils.

time JOAN GAUCI QUIGLEY
It’s that teatime again Joan Gauci Quigley is gearing up to host Australia’s Biggest Morning Tea, again. The Bacchus Marsh resident and one of the state’s most successful fundraisers for the Cancer Council Victoria will host her second morning tea next month. And internet sensation, Sunshine grandmother Nonna Paola, will be Ms Quigley’s special guest. Ms Quigley, who has a family history with cancer, has raised more than $150,000 with Girls Night In for the Cancer Council Victoria. She said she felt it was time she hosted a morning function. Although her previous morning tea was more mellow than Girls Night In, it was a way for her to inject extra money into the council and raise extra awareness.
Ms Quigley raised about $1000 at last year’s morning tea and is hoping to beat that this year. “Cancer’s too common; you’re never too old or young to get the disease,” she said. “One day maybe there could be a cure.” She hopes to have sponsors on board to cater the morning tea in Tarneit from 10am to noon on Friday, May 29. The tea is free but RSVP’s are needed by Friday, May 15. And her famous Girls Night In will be at the Luxor Reception, 503 Sydenham Road, Taylors Lakes, from 7.30pm-1am, Friday, October 23. Tickets are $100. For more information or to get involved, call 0417 105 146. Sumeyya Ilanbey

It’s not just the impressive views from the upstairs balcony that make this contemporary two-storey townhouse a special one. It’s an attractive interior as well, with a carpeted lounge room on entry and a hallway leading past the downstairs powder room to the rear. The family-meals area with polished tile floors abuts the kitchen which has white stone benchtops, island bench and stainless-steel dishwasher, underbench oven, gas cooktop and canopy rangehood. The main bedroom has an en suite and walk-in wardrobe; the other two have built-in wardrobes and are serviced by the main bathroom with spa and raised-basin vanity. Both front and backyards have well-maintained, low-maintenance gardens and there’s a rear patio area. With easy access to the Western Freeway and a short drive from schools, parks and shops, the property has ducted heating, evaporative cooling and a remote-controlled double garage.
In a newly developed area of Bacchus Marsh/Darley, this relatively new house of about 13 squares is a great start-up property and one that will hold appeal for investors. It’s currently tenanted but vacant possession is also available. There are three bedrooms, each with built-in wardrobe. The bathroom has a timber-look vanity unit and a cream-and-white decor. Living areas include a tiled family-meals space next to the kitchen. Top and bottom cupboards, white benchtops and splashback tiles and stainless-steel underbench oven, gas cooktop and dishwasher equip the compact but easy-flow kitchen. The family room opens to a concrete-paved area (the spot for a future pergola) which has views of a neat backyard with a combination of lawn, pebbles and mulched perimeter gardens. Other inclusions are a split-system and remote-controlled double garage.

Investors looking to expand their portfolio may find this low-maintenance property of some interest, as would first-home buyers. The house is presently rented for $285 a week but vacant possession can also be offered dependent upon the buyer’s needs. There are four bedrooms with built-in wardrobes, the main also with an en suite. The family-meals area includes the kitchen with stone benchtops, breakfast bar, stainless-steel dishwasher, underbench oven, gas cooktop and canopy rangehood, and a stylish tiled splashback in contemporary mocha tones. The spacious backyard needs a bit of TLC, but should suit those looking to engage in horticultural pursuits. Additional features include air-conditioning, ducted heating, video intercom and remote-controlled double garage with internal access. In a secluded corner of Kurunjang, the property offers a quiet neighbourhood for those looking to escape the hustle and bustle of inner-city living.
Slap-bang in the middle of Melton South, overlooking Toolern Creek Reserve, this property is only a few minutes drive from Woodgrove Shopping Centre, Melton train station and Coburn Primary School, yet has a surprising sense of seclusion. Once past the landscaped front gardens with decked front entrance, the interior reveals a carpeted lounge room, and four bedrooms with built-in wardrobes serviced by the one bathroom. Adjoining the family-meals area at the rear, the kitchen has a wall oven, cooktop and fixed rangehood. The backyard has a covered entertainment area, great for guests during the hot summer months. With additional features of ceiling fans, ducted heating, air-conditioning and lots of natural light complementing the well-maintained interior, this property may appeal to first-home buyers and investors alike.

The kitchen has American oak cupboards – and lots of them – black granite benchtops, subway-laid splashback tiles in cream, a dishwasher and large walk-in pantry; the sink sits in a bay and has views of the pergola and backyard beyond. A tiled hallway from the meals area heads to the main bedroom with fitted walk-in robe and an en suite with an oak/
granite vanity unit and burgundy and cream decor. Next door, there’s a laundry with walk-in storage closet. At the opposite end of the house, there’s a tiled children’s lounge room, a powder room, three bedrooms with mirrored robes, and the main bathroom decked out the same as the smaller – and with a restored clawfoot bath. Up polished oak stairs from the children’s lounge room, there’s an enormous, carpeted living area with vaulted ceiling and dormer windows. This lends itself to many purposes, not least

TECH TALK
Great outdoors wired for sound Outdoor speakers are finally getting clever. It used to be they were ugly things that were mounted under the eaves or ugly things that sat in the garden like giant mushrooms. Some were even made to look like rocks, an appearance so obviously fake it was laughable. I’ve never come across an outdoor speaker disguised as a garden gnome but I’d be willing to bet someone’s made one. Now outdoor speakers are getting small enough – and tough enough – to hide among the plants. They’re weatherproof, UV-resistant, sprinkler-proof, spider-proof and will even take some pretty hard knocks. And if you don’t feel like hiding them, they’re interesting enough to sit in the fork of your lemon tree, proudly on display. Who knows, the lemons might even be juicier with all those good but subtle vibrations happening. Sonance is a well-known speaker maker that’s been around since 1981 and it has developed an outdoor speaker system that can keep you and your neighbours happy. But note that word system; these are not speakers you buy individually, this is an integrated package of eight small satellite speakers and a tubular subwoofer that is buried, with only the topmost part visible. The idea is to mount the eight satellite speakers around the perimeter of the garden, facing inwards. They are on spikes and have a speaker housing about the size of a drink can that contains a single full-range driver. Sonance suggests 1.8 to 2.4 metres between each one, with the subwoofer approximately in
the middle. This way you cover an area of 180 square metres, indicating a medium to large garden. The attraction here is that the speakers all face inwards, towards where the people are, so it minimises impact on the neighbours. It also means an even spread of music across the whole outdoor area, without hot spots where it’s too loud and dead spots where the music struggles to be heard. The satellite speakers can also be mounted
‘‘
It means an even spread - Rod Easdown of sound
’’
on walls or in trees if necessary, making the system flexible. While the satellites can be set up for stereo with individual left and right channels, the recommended positioning of alternate left and right speakers suggests a result that would give an overall mono sound. This can obviously be changed by the installer if true stereo is needed but I doubt that many folk would be much worried in such an outdoor setting. The company has made a four-minute installation video that is easy enough for anyone who knows their hi-fi but, if you need help, any installer could do the job quickly and easily. And it’s user-friendly. All the speakers have an eight-ohm resistance, which means the system connects straight into the vast bulk of stereo amplifiers and receivers, taking up just one right and left speaker output.

SPORT Burras fly beyond fears By Tara Murray When Diggers Rest Bulla lost four early wickets on day three of the Gisborne and District Cricket Association B-grade competition, captain-coach Rhys Berry started to think ‘not again’. Last year the Burras lost the grand final to Gisborne by one wicket and, despite having a first innings lead, Berry thought they may have blown their chances again. The Burras resumed at 2-71 with an overall lead of 74 going into the third and final day of the match against East Sunbury. “We were in the box seat going into the day. We lost 4-24 to be 6-95 and still with plenty of overs remaining,” Berry said. “There were very nervous guys with the top six blokes out. Speaking for myself, the negative thoughts started to arrive and I thought we were going to lose the unloseable game.”
‘‘
I thought we were going to lose the unloseable game
’’
- Rhys Berry
Berry promoted himself up the order to try to calm things down in the middle. The decision worked, with Berry and Mark Jackson batting for the rest of the day. “We batted for 60 overs and the more time we spent in the middle, the better. The partnership was 62 not out.” The Burras finished the day and the match at 6-157. Berry made 23 not out, while Jackson finished unbeaten also, 31 not out. Andrew Knight also scored 31. Experienced Burras bowler Darren Quarrell was named man-of-the-match for his 5-38 off 17 overs, the win being the Burras’ second grand final in three years. The club also won the C-grade premiership in 2012-13 and was B-grade runner-up last year. “It [2012-13] was my first season in charge and the plan was to get us to McIntyre Cup, which we’ve now done,” Berry said.“The club has never been in the McIntyre Cup since coming into the competition in 1990. “In my 13 years, we’ve always been one of the stronger teams … it’s the fourth time I’ve played in a B-grade grand final, though this is the first time we’ve won.” Berry said he was hopeful the club would be competitive next year in the top grade. “We’re finally there and up with the big boys. Obviously we will have to find a couple of others players to be competitive, but it’s all very exciting,” Berry said. Andrew Knight made 31 for Diggers Rest at the weekend. (Damian Visentini)
Melton’s Premier Cricket dream fades Melton’s hopes of competing in Victorian Premier Cricket ended last week with Cricket Victoria announcing that no club will be promoted into the state’s top cricket league. Earlier in the season, clubs around the state had been invited to apply for a vacant spot in the competition that was being created through a planned merger of the Hawthorn-Monash University and Dandenong clubs. Talks between the pair broke down and the 52 MELTON & MOORABOOL STAR WEEKLY \ MARCH 31, 2015
merger was called, off with both clubs set to compete in the 2015-16 season. Melton was one of three clubs still vying for the vacancy, along with Werribee and Plenty Valley. Premier Cricket strategy and development manager Mike Ronchi said Cricket Victoria would continue to work with the three clubs in a bid to create opportunities. “This decision provides some clarity
for the three clubs in relation to the immediate term (next season), while acknowledging that the process is still open beyond 2015-16 and will continue with each of the three clubs,” Ronchi said. “Given the collapse of the merger, we believe this is the most appropriate response for now. “All three clubs provided a strong case for their inclusion as a Premier club.”
Junior footy ranks thinning Riddell District Football League is looking at ways to counter the growing problem of under-16 and under-18.5 players leaving the game. Operations manager Toby Boyle says the problem, a statewide issue, is something the RDFL wants to address. Several clubs are short of numbers for under-18.5 sides, with other clubs struggling at the under-16 level. “It’s not ideal,” Boyle said. “We’re still four weeks from the start of the season and a lot of kids have been playing cricket. “Lancefield is the only club that has told us they won’t have an under-18.5 side, but three or four other clubs have spoken to me about a shortage of numbers, though they’re still looking at fielding a side.” Boyle says there has also been a drop in the number of under-16 teams, with clubs filling one full team first then looking to fill a second team. “We would like every club to have at least one side and the aim is for every club to have two teams,” Boyle said. “At the moment, only Gisborne Rookies and Rupertswood will field two teams.” Boyle says there needs to be a change in approach at the junior level to try to get players to stay in the game. “We’ve identified that players need to be developed better at a younger level. “They need to play all positions and develop in all areas, not just focus on five or six players to win games through them. “If they’re pigeonholed in one position, they aren’t going to enjoy it and [will] want to walk away. Lancefie ld and Rockbank are two clubs that have put massive work in over the pre-season to get junior and under-18.5 teams up and running, but with little success. Tigers president Tony McKay said they had done everything they could to get an under-18.5 team this season after not being able to field one last year. “We thought we had it off the ground and had the players across the line, but it hasn’t happened. “We notified the league two weeks ago we wouldn’t have an under-18.5 side as we didn’t want the embarrassment of pulling out two weeks in. “We tried everything. We spoke with the league, schools and other clubs.” The Tigers are hopeful of having an under-16 side. Rams coach Gavin Sporale says his club will again be without junior sides. “We tried everything and we couldn’t get the numbers needed. We flirted with having under-16s and under-12s but couldn’t get it over the line. “We put so much time into it, it’s disappointing to see it fail,” he said. Sporale says his club is one of the three-four clubs struggling for numbers at the under-18.5 level. “We’ve put in a couple of exemption requests and if they go through we should have 19-20 players.” Romsey is another club struggling for numbers for its under-18.5. Redbacks president Wayne Milburn says he’s confident his club will get the required players in coming weeks. Tara Murray

Phoenix in its keeper’s debt By Liam Twomey Melton Phoenix coach Peter Schwellinger is hoping Saturday’s 1-1 draw with Brimbank will serve as a wake-up call for his side. Going into the state league 4 soccer clash, Melton was the clear favourite after a strong FFA Cup campaign. But the Phoenix found itself 1-0 down after just 15 minutes. “I expected the boys to win,” Schwellinger said. “Brimbank didn’t do too well last year and you really need to beat those opponents if you want to finish up at the top. “The performance was a bit out of character. The players maybe took it a bit too easy after we’d had such a great run. I think they underestimated their opponent a little bit.” Melton was eventually able to equalise in the 85th minute thanks to a brilliant strike from Jason Moody. Although disappointed to come away with just a point, it could have been worse for the Phoenix, with Brimbank going close to being 2-0 up on a number of occasions in the first hour of play. Schwellinger was full of praise for his goalkeeper, Christopher Vassallo, who kept his side in the match. “Chris had a few really good saves. He was probably man-of-the-match, for me,” Schwellinger said. “On the counter attack, Brimbank was very dangerous. They could have scored again two

or three times, but Chris played very well in goal.” Melton will have a week off before its next game against Point Cook in what will be the Phoenix’s first away game of the season. Point Cook enters the match in strong form after enjoying a 4-0 smashing of the Maribyrnong Greens on Saturday. Schwellinger is confident his side’s best play is still good enough to get the three points against anyone. “We can only beat ourselves, really,” he said. “If we are disciplined like we were in the FFA Cup, we’re going to be very hard to beat. “We are not conceding many goals. I think that was only the third goal we’ve conceded throughout the pre-season and season, so we aren’t letting many through. “At the end of the day, it was a wake-up call for the boys and hopefully they take this on board.” After two rounds, Melton is in third spot on the league table and is one of three sides to open the season with a win and a draw. The only team with the maximum six points is Bell Park. In other SL4 results from the weekend, Melbourne City defeated Laverton Park, Surf Coast was too good for Altona North, Bell Park edged out the Keilor Wolves, and Sebastopol got the better of the Truganina Hornets.

MOTOR Hot hatch has bragging rights
AUDI S1
eyeball air-con vents, the manual fold-down screen familiar to Q3 owners (but smaller) and a good clear dash. The handbrake jars slightly as it feels cheap to hold and wobbles a bit. The S sport seats are big and comfortable and the top half of the backs are capped in plastic, which was colour-coded on our car. Despite the five doors, the back seats are occasionals and the boot is very small but okay for shopping for couples or singles. Infotainment is centred around Audi’s dash-mounted MMI. As ever, it works well and
doesn’t take much getting used to. The sat-nav is a bit grainy on the smaller screen but is otherwise a competent unit. Sound is from a ten-speaker stereo and you can stream across Bluetooth or plug in a memory card. The system did take a while to find the phone. Under the bonnet there’s a relatively big 2.0-litre turbo-charged, four-cylinder engine that propels the S1 to 100km/h in 5.9 seconds. It has an auto stop-start function when you’re stationary that helped deliver a pretty

reasonable 10.2l/100km, but that’s a long way over claimed 7.1l/100km. All Audi S1s come with a six-speed manual, so dual-clutch haters can save the whining. It’s a bit difficult to justify the price – in its basic form, it’s missing a few creature comforts that you’d expect in a $50,000 car – reversing camera, high-res screen, that sort of thing. However, in the hot hatch world, those things don’t matter. It has the bragging rights, the tech and the speed to take on the Focus ST, the Megane RS and even the Audi S3.

Starting at $49,900, Audi S1 is the priciest of the small-hatch based hotties, at least until Mini’s JCW arrives. This price is almost double that of VW stablemate’s forthcoming 2015 Polo GTI. Standard on the manual and five-door only S1 is a 10-speaker stereo, climate control, ambient lighting, remote central-locking, cruise control, sat-nav, headlight washers, auto headlights with xenon low beams, partial leather seats, leather-bound steering wheel, auto wipers and rear parking sensors. Options include the Quattro exterior package ($3990), which adds bi-xenon headlights with red trim, red brake calipers, spoiler, quattro logos on rear doors and five-spoke, 18-inch alloys that are part matt black, part polished. The Quattro interior package ($2490) adds S Sport front seats with Nappa leather and red backrest capping, with quattro logo, more nappa around the cabin with contrast stitching, a flat bottom steering wheel and red rings on the air vents. There’s an S performance package that brings the best of these two packs together for $4990, saving about $1500 and the embarrassment of the quattro logos. Our test car also has aluminium air vents ($220), black contrasting boot lid ($300) and black roof ($720). The grand total is a sobering $58,610. There’s a couple more options that’ll easily pop you over $60,000. Inside goes along the lines of the A3, with what are becoming Audi’s trademark – round
