Full STEAM ahead Studying science at The Grange P-12 College is seriously cool. And it’s about to get even cooler. The Hoppers Crossing school was last week named the state winner of the OfficeMax STEAM Grants program, receiving a $2500 grant and STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Mathematics) starter kit. The school’s STEM learning specialist, teacher Teagan Snowling, said her proposal was to build an outdoor STEM learning space at the school. The space would include ponds to help pupils study life cycles and biology; rivers to test out their engineering projects; and an area dedicated to chemistry and inventing. RIZKI, 9

Mayor vote switch nixed By Charlene Macaulay A Wyndham councillor has lost his bid to postpone this year’s mayoral election so councillors contesting the state election can participate. Councillor Josh Gilligan’s notice of motion was shot down at last week’s council meeting, with fellow councillors saying the council should not change meeting dates to accommodate outside interests. “Whether it’s to run for a state election or family or work commitments – I would not like to set a precedent to see meeting dates changed to meet the needs of individual circumstances,” Cr Kim McAliney said. Cr Gilligan wanted to move the mayoral
election from November 21 to November 28 to ensure that councillors running in state seats will be available to attend. “That would ensure the democratic participation of all 11 councillors … and, of course, making sure that any councillor that obviously wishes to contest the state or federal election are entitled to do so, but that they are also given the opportunity to exercise their rights as elected representative at that statutory meeting,” Cr Gilligan said. Councillors who nominate as candidates for state or federal elections should apply for leave of absence from the council between the date of nomination and close of voting, according to Municipal Association of Victoria guidelines.
That means any councillor contesting this year’s November 24 state election will miss both Wyndham council’s November ordinary council meeting and the mayoral election. They would not be able to perform any council duties during that period. Cr Gilligan’s motion did not include a request to change the date of the ordinary meeting. Councillor Intaj Khan backed the motion and said councillors should be supportive of others seeking more leadership. According to Star Weekly inquiries, at least three Wyndham councillors are eyeing state seats. Cr Hooper is considering an independent candidacy for the seat of Altona, and councillors Khan and Walter Villagonzalo are
also considering tilts. Cr Khan said he was also thinking of running in the next federal election, for which a date has yet to be set. The motion was defeated, with councillors McAliney, Hooper, Henry Barlow, John Gibbons, Peter Maynard and Mia Shaw voting against the proposed change. “If I was waiting for an operation … I don’t expect the date would be changed for the statutory meeting,” Cr Barlow said. Councillors Gilligan, Heather Marcus, Barlow, Shaw, McAliney and Maynard said they would not contest either the state or federal election. Councillors Aaron An, Gibbons and did not respond to Star Weekly by deadline.

Contamination spread examined By Goya Dmytryshchak The Department of Defence is investigating the extent of offsite contamination from chemicals found in firefighting foam used on the RAAF Base Williams at Laverton. A preliminary site investigation finalised last September found the presence of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) at the base, prompting an investigation of the chemicals’ “migration” off base. A survey of how the local community uses or has used bore and surface water is set to start in the next quarter. The department may conduct sampling on private property.
Luke McLeod, assistant secretary of the department’s PFAS Investigation and Management Program, told a community meeting in Laverton on Thursday there were three types of PFAS of concern if they got into drinking water, recreational water and soil. “We’re particularly interested in understanding how the community around RAAF Base Williams use water, how they’re interacting with water, whether they’ve got bores, whether they’re using bores for drinking purposes, whether they might be using it for irrigation purposes, etcetera,” he said. “There’s uncertainty about the health impact so we understand that can give rise to stress and
anxiety around that uncertainty.” He said federal and state health bodies had found there was currently no consistent evidence that exposure to PFAS caused adverse health impacts, but that human exposure to these chemicals should be minimised as a precaution. A Federal Department of Health fact sheet distributed at the meeting stated there was “no conclusive evidence” that PFAS caused cancer although some studies had shown a possible link. A former firefighter on the base for 18 years, Werribee’s Mal Marsland-Kelsey, told the meeting the firefighting foams had been used
Book sale a real page turner
Towers plan for Wyndham
You don’t need to book in, but be sure to attend a special fundraising event in Hoppers Crossing this weekend. The Werribee Ladies for Kids Auxiliary for the Royal Children’s Hospital will host a secondhand book sale on Saturday and Sunday. The sale will include fiction, non-fiction, children’s books and DVDs, along with handcrafted items made by auxiliary members, such as crocheted blankets, patchwork rugs and babies and children’s clothing. Auxiliary members Heather Brett and Mabel Cornwall said they hoped to attract a big crowd to the sale. Mrs Brett said she had been collecting books to sell for about 12 months, with some donated by deceased estates and also by the Heathglen Retirement Village. Mrs Cornwall said the book sale would be a “one-off” event but would be similar to the monthly fundraising stalls which the auxiliary holds at the RCH and shopping centre markets. Within the past three years, the auxiliary has raised more than $150,000 for the Royal Children’s Hospital, including $52,630 for an adolescent music therapy program, $50,000 for an ultrasound machine and $49,789 for an autism treatment study. Mrs Brett likened volunteering for the auxiliary to “a full-time job”. “Unless I’m asleep I’m sewing, knitting, crocheting or running stalls,” she said. The book sale will be held at 64 Evrah Drive in Hoppers Crossing, starting at 8am on Saturday, August 18 and again on Sunday 19. The books will be $2 each or six for $10.
Seven new telecommunication towers may pop up across Wyndham after the council tentatively approved leases for Vodafone and Optus. The council wants the community to have its say on the proposed towers along Clearwood Drive, Truganina; Howqua Way, Manor Lakes; McGrath Road, Werribee; Jamieson Way, Point Cook; Morris Road, Hoppers Crossing; Saltwater Promenade, Point Cook; and Station Street, Little River. The towers will be on council-owned open spaces, sports field or community centres and will fill mobile coverage gaps. The Telecommunications Industry Ombudsman has received 120 customer reports of poor data speeds and drop-outs in Point Cook. Councillor Kim McAliney said she was “extremely concerned” by the frequent mobile network blackouts, which can create safety concerns, especially in emergency situations. Councillor Henry Barlow referenced the 2016 thunderstorm asthma event, where 20-year-old Hope Carnevali died at a Hoppers Crossing property after emergency services were swamped with calls for help. “A lot of people were on the network and the network just shut people out,” he said. A council report stated that if the council does not approve the leases the telecommunication providers could invoke the Telecommunications Act 1997, and access may be granted without council consent.

sometimes two or three times a day and the fire trucks were hosed down daily. “We were instructed to use this chemical in the fire trucks,” he said. “We didn’t know whether it was safe or not.” Mr Marsland-Kelsey, 76, said he only learned PFAS were dangerous when he left the air force. Federal Lalor MP Joanne Ryan told the meeting she was concerned about offsite contamination, particularly as the base used to stretch to Williams Landing. “I think there might be several hundred farmers in Werribee South that might be interested to know that they shouldn’t be using that water,” she said.

oes mental illness still have a social stigma? I would say it does, especially with the male of the species, many of whom still believe it is soft and unmanly to ask for help. Beyondblue ambassador Brad McEwan spoke at the President’s Lunch at Werribee Football Club last week and his personal story – as well as his observations – brought home the importance of seeing past the superficial facade many people put up. There are many organisations in place to offer support and we have probably never had more avenues to access help. Yet we still have an escalating problem in society. Tom Boyd, the Bulldogs premiership player, spoke of his struggles on the Bulldogs podcast Freedom In a Cage. Tom spoke of his lack of coping skills because everything came easily and readily to him until he hit adulthood. He was good at sport, good at school, had a great home and social life and really wanted for nothing. That is the exact life we are trying to provide
for our children. It obviously isn’t all it appears to be. As parents we try to tread that fine line between cotton wooling too much and allowing freedom to try and fail. You learn more from your mistakes than successes, but what parent wants their child to constantly fail? The pain associated with failure is often too much for us as parents to bear, but we have to, as the Boyd story illustrates. No amount of money, fame or success helps. Rich people get cancer and suffer from mental health issues too. We all want to be happy and healthy. Brad made the point that we go to the doctor if our arms or legs don’t feel right or are broken. The same should apply when the rest of us doesn’t feel right. The suck-it-up, harden-up, get-over-yourself cure-all of the past is no longer acceptable. We need to admit there is a problem. Then we need to address the problems and deal with them accordingly and appropriately. Life is different from 20 years ago and dealing with it has changed as well. It is time we all embraced that. â–

Wait list pain for dental patients By Goya Dmytryshchak People in the Altona electorate are waiting more than two years for public dental health care, figures obtained under freedom of information show. The Australian Dental Association Victorian Branch obtained data that shows IPC Health in Altona Meadows and Hoppers Crossing had one of the state’s longest average waiting times for general dental treatment. The waiting time was 27.9 months for routine care including examination, cleaning,
fillings, extractions and root canals. There was an average wait of 22.1 months for routine provision of dentures. The clinics, which provide discounted dental care for people with healthcare cards, have 9175 people on a central waiting list. The Australian Dental Association Victorian Branch (ADAVB) obtained the data through an FoI request to Health Services Victoria. Statewide, the average wait was 19.7 months for general dental care and 17.1 months for denture care. ADAVB chief executive Matt Hopcraft said

Poor oral health is one of the strongest indicators - Matt Hopcraft of inequality
’’
people eligible for public dental care might endure pain, have difficulty speaking and eating, miss school, struggle to find jobs or develop other serious health problems. “We know that poor oral health is one of the strongest indicators of inequality and yet the waiting time for general dental care
has increased 67 per cent since 2014-15,” he said. The association is calling for additional annual funding of $40 million over five years, lifting current funding from $240 million up to about $440 million. It is also calling for private-public partnerships with a focus on growth corridors of Melbourne and high-demand areas. “At current funding levels, only 16 per cent of people who are eligible to access public dental care in Victoria were able to see a dentist in any given year,” Mr Hopcraft said.
College has a top plarn Point Cook College P-9 students have mastered the art of plarning – plastic yarning – and have used it to create sleeping mats for the homeless. College P-9 environmental leaders have spent the past two terms creating the sleeping mats and last week donated their collection to Onevoice, which will distribute them to people in need. Environmental science teacher and sustainability co-ordinator Robyn Cairns said the project began as a way to repurpose single-use plastic bags. The Western Plarners group taught students the tricks of the trade and from there, they crocheted the plarn into sleeping mats during lunchtime workshops. “A couple of grade 6 girls were doing all the crocheting, all the other kids were making the plarn,” Ms Cairns said. “There’s a bit of a process – you’ve got to cut the plastic bags, loop it and create it into balls
for them to crochet with. We had a lot of kids come in to make plarn.” Ms Cairns said Point Cook College P-9, which is a three-star Resource Smart school, had a passion for community projects. “It’s good to see the kids taking community action for the environment, but also for people in need,” she said. “It’s providing a real-life learning opportunity.” Charlene Macaulay

Councillors grant new panel By Charlene Macaulay A panel of six councillors will help decide the recipients of Wyndham council’s annual community grants program, following a divisive debate at last week’s council meeting. Councillor Josh Gilligan moved a motion to establish a community grants program evaluation panel, whereby six councillors – including at least one councillor from each ward – will consider and vote on all eligible applications submitted through
the Wyndham community grants program. Currently, half of all available council grants are determined by council officers. The rest are voted on at council meetings, with decisions based on council officer recommendations. Cr Gilligan said the idea was to give councillors more engagement in the annual $1.6 million community grants process while “maintaining robust safeguards” . He said the panel would include “very clear provisions around conflict of interest” to ensure decisions were above board.
However, councillors Kim McAliney and Henry Barlow questioned why the matter was up for debate when a review of the council’s grants program would be held next month. Cr Barlow said that, despite provisions, there was still potential for direct or indirect conflicts of interest. “If, for example, you are a very sports-minded individual, you may lean towards more sporting-type clubs to receive funding or grants,” he said. The motion was carried by a small margin.
Councillors Gilligan, Intaj Khan, Aaron An, Walter Villagonzalo, Heather Marcus and Mia Shaw voted in favour while councillors Barlow, McAliney, Tony Hooper, Peter Maynard and John Gibbons voted against. Many councils do not involve councillors in the grants process to avoid potential conflicts of interest. Brimbank council was sacked in 2009 and Geelong council sacked in 2016 after some councillors were found to have awarded grants to groups or projects they had a personal interest in, among other concerns.
Reflecting on lives lost For Rick Hallin and Bruce Hicks, Vietnam Veterans’ Day is a time to pay tribute to all those who lost their lives during the conflict. Both men are members of the Melbourne West Sub-Branch of the Vietnam Veterans’ Association of Australia. Each year on Vietnam Veterans’ Day, the sub-branch holds a wreath-laying ceremony at the Werribee cenotaph in Station Street. Veterans, families and members of the public are invited to attend this year’s event, which will be held from 7am on Saturday, August 18. “It’s very emotional for me, remembering mates and friends and everyone who died, and the absolute waste of their lives,” Mr Hallin said. “In memory of all the blokes that gave their lives, lest we forget.” This year is the 50th anniversary of Operation Toan Thong, which ran from April to June 1968. Both Mr Hicks and Mr Hallin were part of the operation.
When they shipped out to Vietnam, Mr Hallin was 18 and Mr Hicks, 22. Mr Hicks was in the 102 Field Battery, 12th Field Regiment, Royal Regiment of Australian Artillery, while Mr Hallin was part of the 1st Ordnance Field Park, attached to 2nd Battalion of the Royal Australian Regiment. Mr Hicks says television re-enactments make it seem like everyone knows what is happening during a war, but in reality “it’s actually absolute chaos”. He was hit in the head twice during the war – once by mortar and once by a table blown towards him in a draft of wind caused by a Chinook helicopter. Mr Hallin says he suffered post-traumatic stress disorder after the war, and still has nightmares about the conflict. “In all wars, you see so many lives cut short,” he says.

Blake Court development opposed
Carparking on the side of the Princes Highway is not illegal, according to Wyndham council and police. (Charlene Macaulay)
Highway ‘carpark’ legal By Charlene Macaulay Desperate drivers are resorting to parking along one of Werribee’s busiest arterials due to a lack of proper carparking spaces. In recent weeks, a number of drivers have taken to parking on the side of the road along Princes Highway, between the access road to Wyndham council’s civic centre and Princes Court. It is believed that most, if not all, of the cars belong to Wyndham council staff. The cars parked along the Princes Highway are not breaking the law, according to the council and Westgate Highway Patrol.
8 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 15, 2018
Wyndham council acting chief executive Stephen Thorpe said there were no signs to indicate that cars could not park along the section of the Princes Highway. Mr Thorpe said the council had had “ongoing communication with staff about the importance of complying with parking rules in and around the civic centre”. “We’re currently assessing ways to maximise parking availability at the civic centre and we are continuing to encourage staff to consider alternative modes of transport, such as car pooling and active travel.” Westgate Highway Patrol unit commander
Keith Kissack confirmed that the cars were not parked illegally. “Our main focus is on reducing road trauma [and] these vehicles do not present as a significant risk to other road users or themselves directly from the parking in these circumstances,” Senior Sergeant Kissack said. Meanwhile, a group of medical practitioners located along the Princes Highway have lodged a petition calling on Wyndham council to provide its employees with adequate parking so that they no longer need to park along the service road fronting their clinics.
A Truganina resident has voiced concerns about a proposal to build 26 houses, including 14 double-storey and 12 triple-storey dwellings, in his court. Ian Mullins said the planning permit application, for a block of about 5920 square metres in Blake Court, showed that all of the houses to be built would have a single-car garages. But he said there were only plans to build five on-site visitor carparks. The developer’s plans state that traffic generated by residents driving to and from the new houses will result in about 180 to 220 additional vehicle movements per day in Blake Court. The proposal states this “will not create congestion or significantly increase traffic volumes within the local street network”. But Mr Mullins said Blake Court was a “small, quiet” street with just 10 houses. He is worried it won’t be able to handle a large increase in traffic. He said there was also limited room for cars to park in the court. “This development will triple the traffic volume and turn the street into a carpark, as there’s only five visitor parks for the 26 units,” he said.

Project warms the soul VCAL students at the Wyndham Community and Education Centre have been cooking up a storm to raise funds for a cause close to their hearts. Teenagers from the centre’s VCAL English as an Alternative Language class have launched a project to raise money for Amnesty International’s efforts to support the 700,000 Rohingya refugees living in Bangladesh, near the Myanmar border. The Winter Warmer Comfort Food project involves the students cooking meals which are then sold for $5 to the centre’s other students, staff and organisations in Wyndham. Teacher Julie-Anne Bennett said many of the students involved in the project were refugees themselves.
“We are very proud of the class because they have been so proactive about the need to help the Rohingya,” she said. The comfort food project has been well received and attracted the attention of proprietor and head chef of Laverton’s Little Mekong Restaurant, Jensen Lam. Mr Lam last week dropped in to teach the students how to make sweet corn and chicken soup to add to their menu. Ms Bennett said the community’s response to the cause had been “great”. To order a Winter Warmer Comfort Food meal, contact Ms Bennett on julieanneb@ wyndhamcec.org.au. Alesha Capone

Forsyth Road project start
A principal of passion By Alesha Capone Werribee Secondary College principal Steve Butyn says he started his career as a “very keen and enthusiastic first-year teacher”. After working as an educator for five decades, Mr Butyn says he remains just as passionate about his chosen field. He was presented with a Recognition of Service to Victorian Education award, in tribute to his 50 years in the industry, earlier this month. Mr Butyn, who celebrated his 70th birthday last week, said he decided that he wanted to be a teacher at an early age.
“When I was in grade 5, I helped my best mate to spell and I got a great thrill out of that achievement,” he said. “That event etched my ultimate career.” Mr Butyn’s first teaching job was at Paisley High School in Newport. It is now part of Bayside P-12 College. He was appointed to Werribee High School (which later became Werribee Secondary College) in 1987 as a leading teacher, becoming an assistant principal in 1991 and principal two years later. “I feel most privileged to be principal of Werribee Secondary College,” Mr Butyn said.
“We are an internationally-focused college, with 1500 students representing 54 nationalities and 64 languages.” During his time at the college, it has been accredited as an international school by the Council of International Schools, which is based in the Netherlands. The college was the first government school in Victoria to be authorised to deliver the diploma-level International Baccalaureate, a senior certificate recognised all around the world. “We are very proud of our achievements,” Mr Butyn said.
Work on the long-awaited duplication of Forsyth Road will begin next month following Wyndham council’s selection of the successful construction bidder. The council has awarded the $7.54 million road duplication to Negri Contractors, with the work expected to take about 10 months. Forsyth Road will be duplicated from two lanes to four between Ashcroft Avenue and Sayers Road. The project will include a new traffic light intersection at Waterways Boulevard and a pedestrian crossing at the Federation Trail crossing. Once the work is finished, Forsyth Road will be fully duplicated between Old Geelong Road and Leakes Road. Wyndham mayor Peter Maynard called on drivers to allow a little bit of extra time when travelling on Forsyth Road in coming months, when reduced speed limits will be in place. “These works not only make the road safer, but will also ease congestion, getting our residents home to their families sooner,” Cr Maynard said. “Works as part of the state government’s western roads upgrade package has commenced – upgrading and widening eight of our busiest roads – and a key project in this package is the Forsyth Road interchange. “We’ve strategically planned our works on Forsyth Road to take place ahead of these works to alleviate as much disruption as possible.” Charlene Macaulay

Last straw for Marcus Single use plastic products such as straws and water bottles could be banned at council facilities and events if one Wyndham councillor gets her way. Environment and sustainability portfolio holder Heather Marcus last week successfully moved a motion calling for a council report to explore eliminating single use plastic products at council-run facilities and events. If passed, any single use plastics such as straws, water bottles and balloons would be banned. Cr Marcus said disposable plastics were commonly found littered along streets, creeks and waterways, and Australians discarded 9.7 million single use plastic items each year. She believed Wyndham should follow the
lead of other councils such as Darebin in banning single use plastic products. “It’s more important than ever to put the right things into our recycling bins but also to rethink the waste that we are generating as a whole,” she said. Councillor Tony Hooper, who voted against the motion, raised concerns about how these changes would affect residents with a disability. Cr Hooper said plastic straws were important for many people with cerebral palsy, or for those whom a change to a different type of straw would cause considerable stress and anxiety. The report will be tabled at an upcoming council meeting.

Job prospects boosted
Trees removed for Point Cook road works
By Alesha Capone Wyndham council has welcomed $1 million state government funding to help young people find employment and boost social cohesion. Industry and Employment Minister Ben Carroll announced the funding at the Youth Resource Centre in Hoppers Crossing on Monday. Wyndham mayor Peter Maynard said the money would be provided across three years as part of the Werribee and Tarneit Community Revitalisation Project.
‘‘
Partnerships … will be further strengthened
’’
- Peter Maynard
Cr Maynard said the council had developed the program in partnership with the Department of Economic Development, Jobs, Transport and Resources. “This project aims to improve economic and social cohesion for young people and their families in Wyndham who are experiencing disadvantage,” Cr Maynard said. “Partnerships and collaboration between council, local agencies, organisations, employers and the state government will be further strengthened by this initiative. “The project has a goal of placing 200 young people in sustainable employment and 50 young people in entrepreneurship programs to help them start up new businesses.” Cr Maynard said the funding would also be used to support and develop projects such as the Fresh Start Youth Employment program, which works to provide employment pathways for young people from South Sudanese, Pasifika

and other disadvantaged groups. He said the project would be overseen by the Wyndham Youth Senior Alliance, a community-led group. “Council welcomes the announcement and commitment of the state government in providing financial support to assist employment options for Wyndham’s young residents,” he said. “Young people in Wyndham need access to education and employment opportunities to
prosper both economically and socially.” According to a Brotherhood of St Laurence report released in March, Melbourne’s west – including Wyndham, Melton, Brimbank and Maribyrnong – has a youth unemployment rate of 18.7 per cent among residents aged 15 to 24. This was the highest youth unemployment rate in the state, with Melbourne’s north-west – which includes Sunbury, Broadmeadows and Craigieburn – recording a 17.5 per cent unemployment rate.
About 34 trees have been removed from near Dunnings Road in Point Cook, as part of the state government’s Western Roads Upgrade project. A spokesperson for the Major Roads Project Authority (MRPA) said the native vegetation removal works began on August 2. He said the trees were assessed as having no historical or heritage value before they were removed. The MRPA did not answer Star Weekly’s questions about what type of trees had been removed, or the age of the trees. However, the spokesman said the trees removal was necessary to make space to build extra lanes on Dunnings Road, upgrade intersections and improve cycling and walking paths. “Every effort has been made to protect existing trees and vegetation but where areas of the road reserve are narrow, we need to remove vegetation to make these vital improvements,” the spokesman said. He said 4000 new trees and 40,000 new shrubs would be planted throughout the Western Roads Upgrade area. “Landscape plans are currently being designed which will detail where the new trees and shrubs will be planted,” he said.

Fine diversion to fix roads By Charlene Macaulay Outer-suburban roads will receive a third of all revenue collected from Victorian traffic cameras and on-the-spot speeding fines under new laws before Parliament. Roads Minister Luke Donnellan last week introduced legislation that will permanently direct fine revenue to repairing and upgrading Victoria’s road network, with 33 per cent to go directly to outer-suburban roads and another 33 per cent to country roads.
The remaining 34 per cent will be used to repair and upgrade roads and level crossings anywhere in the state. The state government did not answer Star Weekly questions about how it will allocate funding for outer-suburban roads once the legislation comes into effect. Mr Donnellan said the new legislation was on top of a “massive program” of major road projects, including the West Gate Tunnel, the M80 Ring Road, the $4 billion suburban roads upgrade, the North East Link and
upgrades to the Tullamarine and Monash freeways. “We’ve locked roads funding into legislation, delivering on our promise to build better roads for outer suburban and regional communities,” he said. Wyndham acting chief executive Stephen Thorpe said the funding would only go towards roads for which VicRoads was responsible, which includes freeways and major arterial roads. “Given that our residents consistently tell us
that road congestion is a top priority for all levels of government to fix, and with approximately 1500 kilometres of roads in Wyndham, any commitment of ongoing funding to repair and upgrade our local roads is extremely welcome,” he said. “Roads that we would like to see upgraded … include the Ison Road Overpass, Ballan Road and Sayers Road, along with the intersections at Point Cook and Sneydes Road, Ballan Road and Evergreen Road, Ballan Road and McGrath Road, and Geelong Road and Alfred Road.”
High-tech stroke care Suspected stroke patients attending Werribee Mercy Hospital will be assessed remotely thanks to technology that is expected to speed up treatment times. The telemedicine technology will pair Werribee Mercy patients and off-site neurologists through viedo calls, allowing neurologists to review a patient CT brain scan and, if needed, order the use of a thrombolysis drug to dissolve the clot on a patient’s brain. Patients using the stroke telemedicine technology receive the clot-busting drugs an average of 40 minutes faster than under traditional assessments and often within an hour of arriving at hospital, according to the state government. It’s the first time the technology has been used in a metropolitan hospital, with 16 telemedicine facilities already operating in hospitals across rural and regional Victoria. State Health Minister Jill Hennessy said more than 3000 suspected stroke patients
being treated in rural and regional hospitals had received a stroke consultation through the telemedicine technology. “Families in Melbourne’s west can have confidence that – with this world-leading technology – if the worst should happen and their loved one has a stroke, they will get the life-saving care they need sooner,” she said. “When someone has a stroke, every second counts – and time saved equals brain saved. “This cutting-edge technology means local patients will get the urgent assessment and treatment they need faster.” Charlene Macaulay

Drug crimes rise in Wyndham By Alesha Capone Drug crimes have risen in Wyndham in a 12-month period, with cannabis and methylamphetamines accounting for the highest number of offences. Between April last year and March this year, police recorded 697 drug crimes in Wyndham, compared to 648 for the previous 12 months. Drug dealing and trafficking offences dropped (from 90 to 75 offences), but cultivating and manufacturing offences
increased (from 38 to 56 offences), as did drug use and possession offences (from 520 to 566 offences). Of the 566 drug use and possession charges there were 233 offences involving cannabis, 163 methylamphetamine offences, 69 prescription drug offences, 24 ecstasy offences, 20 amphetamines offences, 14 GHB offences, 14 heroin offences, four cocaine offences and 25 involving other types of drugs. Wyndham Police Inspector Marty Allison said that the higher figures recognised the work police were doing to address the issue.
“Drugs such as ice continue to be a driver of other crime categories including property crime, theft, burglaries and robberies – this is often related to funding dependence on the drug,” Inspector Allison said. “We also know that drug use, particularly ice use, contributes to high levels of harm in our community.” Inspector Allison said Victoria Police “has zero tolerance for drug traffickers, especially those who prey on the vulnerable, such as our children”. Last week, the Coroners Court of Victoria
issued a report into the 2016 death of a 24-year-old Hoppers Crossing man, who died from the combination of drugs in his system, including heroin, benzodiazepine and others. The report stated that the number of heroin-involved overdose deaths in Victoria had risen every year since 2012. During the five-year period, there were 809 heroin-involved overdose deaths within Melbourne and its suburbs, including 22 fatalities in Wyndham – the 12th-highest of all Victoria’s municipalities.

Charity Cup helps mums An indoor cricket competition in Hoppers Crossing next month will raise money for the Mother Baby Unit at Werribee Mercy Hospital. The event will be hosted by the Hoppers Indoor Sportz Centre and not-for-profit organisation Stay Well, which was founded by Tarneit’s Kapil Thakkar. He said he established the organisation to encourage healthy living. Mr Thakkar, who also volunteers at Werribee Mercy, said he first heard about the Mother Baby Unit during a meeting at the hospital. “The Mother Baby Unit is an inpatient unit, providing care for mums who have a mental health condition and their babies,” he said. Mr Thakker said he was inspired to organise an event to raise money for the unit, and decided on a cricket competition, the Stay Well Charity Cup. “In addition to awareness of the Mother Baby Unit, we’re also raising awareness of
indoor sport, staying active and getting people healthy, so that’s what I’m looking forward to,” he said. The opening game of the cup will be held between two women’s teams. Mr Thakkar said he hoped a total of 12 teams would sign up for the cup, which will be held on Sunday, September 9, from noon to 6pm, at Hoppers Indoor Sportz Centre, 13/55 Graham Court, Hoppers Crossing. Cost: $30 per individual in a team or $180 for a team of six.

Driving force for farmers By Goya Dmytryshchak A western suburbs trucking business is aiming to raise $10,000 for drought-stricken farmers. Henry Transport Group (HTG), based in Altona North and Truganina, is donating $10 from every tow job it completes in August to Buy a Bale. Buy a Bale, run by Rural Aid, is supplying emergency hay to New South Wales and Queensland families struggling to keep cattle, sheep and horses alive through one of the worst droughts in living memory.

The rate of suicide in rural areas is through the - Tyson Beckwith roof
’’
HTG operations manager Tyson Beckwith said the company wanted to help working class people who were struggling to keep animals and crops alive. “Most people I know have been touched by suicide – I had an uncle who committed suicide … the rate of suicide in rural areas is through the roof,” he said. “Most of the guys here are in their 30s and 40s – we kind of remember an Australia where farming was the backbone of the country and farmers were respected and admired, and it seems like they’re getting a little bit forgotten.” The family business last month completed more than 900 jobs and aims to reach 10,000 jobs for August. About 80 per cent of the company’s business is machinery towing for construction and development projects.

Mr Beckwith said a donation of $10,000 to Buy a Bale would be able to provide more than 460,000 litres of water to farmers. “Ten dollars doesn’t sound like much but we do a lot of turnover so it can become quite significant,” he said.
“Hopefully, it inspires other businesses to do similar.” Buy a Bale was founded five years ago by Charles Alder and his wife Tracy, after they read about Queensland farmers having to shoot their cattle during a drought.

A good sign for organ donation
Vanessa Kantar with her children Elisha and Phillip. (Damjan Janevski)
Family at the Colesface By Charlene Macaulay This family trio has collectively notched up nearly three decades of service at Coles. Customer service manager Vanessa Kantar, daughter Elisha and son Phillip all work at the Hoppers Crossing supermarket. Vanessa, now a Point Cook resident, started working part-time at Coles in Williamstown as a night filler 20 years ago after having a baby and wanting to work closer to home. She was 26 years old at the time and the uniform was white tights and polka-dotted silk scarves.
“I was a very shy person when I started at Coles and working here has brought me out of my shell,” she said. “I had amazing store managers who encouraged me to step up and be confident. Programs such as Coles’ retail leaders program helped me become a manager myself. “I have the most incredible memories of long-term customers coming in as young couples, starting families and watching their kids grow up. It’s a beautiful thing to see.” When her kids were young and had a day off school, they’d sometimes come in and
help out with filing in the office, which led to Elisha (who is also a dental nurse) starting at the Williamstown store five years ago. Phillip (a year 11 Harvester Technical College student) joined the team three years ago. All three started working at the Coles Hoppers Crossing store when it opened three years ago. Vanessa’s husband also worked night fill shifts at the Williamstown store when the kids were young. Only one son, a tradie, has not tried his hand at stocking supermarket shelves.
More than 1000 Wyndham residents signed up to become organ and tissue donors last year. Figures released by DonateLife show that last year 593 residents from the 3030 postcode – which covers Werribee, Point Cook, Werribee South, Quandong and Derrimut – signed up as future donors with the Australian Organ Donor Register. This made the 3030 postcode third-highest in the state for new registrations for the year, behind Ballarat (655 registrations) and Cranbourne (604). The 3029 postcode, which covers Hoppers Crossing, Tarneit and Truganina, came in seventh with 420 people. DonateLife Victoria state medical director Rohit D’Costa said 20 per cent of Victorian adults had signed up with the Australian Organ Donor Register. That compares to 68 per cent in South Australia, 49 per cent in Tasmania and 40 per cent in New South Wales. D’Costa said that it was important for people thinking of signing up to the register to discuss the issue with family and loved ones. At any one time, about 1400 Australians are waiting for life-saving organ transplants. To register to become an organ and tissue donor, visit donatelife.gov.au. Alesha Capone

Tower Road agreement reached By Charlene Macaulay Southern Rural Water and Wyndham council have come to a compromise regarding a SRW plan to sell off part of its Werribee headquarters and rezone the land to an Activity Centre Zone. The Government Land Standing Advisory Committee last month considered SRW’s plan to subdivide the Tower Road site into two parts with a view to retaining the heritage-listed water tower and front office building and building a new office attached to the existing office.
SRW also wanted to rezone the remainder of the land from Public Use Zone 1 to Activity Centre Zone 1 – which would allow for development up to 18.5 metres in height – and sell it off. SRW managing director Clinton Rodda said the Tower Road site was underutilised and the office was in poor condition. Mr Rodda said SRW had sought the rezoning to reflect the strategic planning for Werribee’s CBD, with the preferred building height range of 8-18.5 metres matching the height of the water tower.
However, following discussions with the council, SRW agreed to reduce the height range to a maximum of 13.5 metres, or four storeys. “There will also be a setback of approximately 10 metres from the water tower to any new buildings to the rear of the site,” Mr Rodda said. Wyndham council city economy director Peter McKinnon said although the council originally advocated for a building height of 11 metres, “it was agreed that a 13.5 metre height with a significant setback from the water tower was an appropriate outcome for both parties”.
“It’s important to note that a planning application for the land behind the water tower is yet to be submitted and this initial process simply gives any future planning application the best chance of meeting residents’ needs,” Mr McKinnon said. However, councillor Mia Shaw believes the site should not form part of Werribee’s activity centre. “I … have concerns about the amenity impacts, such as overshadowing for adjoining residents, and the impact to an already highly congested intersection,” she said.
Lapping up success For young swimmer Tara, her success in the pool is more than just a stroke of good luck – it involves hard work, dedication and plenty of training. Tara, 16, is a member of the Hoppers Crossing Swimming Club and attends Wyndham Central College. She recently competed in the annual School Sports Swimming Championships in Hobart, taking part in four individual freestyle events, across 50, 400, 800 and 1500 metres. She placed first in the 800 metres, finishing with a personal best time of 9:07:09, 3.06 seconds faster than her previous fastest time. She came second in the 1500 metres, fifth in the 400 metres and 14th in the 50 metres. In April, she notched up two firsts at the School Sports Victoria State Swimming Championships and she has won a swag of medals from other competitions.
“I train seven times a week in the pool, plus one gym session,” Tara said. “I have to get up at 5am on both Wednesday and Friday for a 5.30 start. “I enjoy the challenge and the pain that comes along with swimming – that sounds crazy, but the reward at the end is really worth it.” Hoppers Crossing Swimming Club head coach Ken Warren, who has been training Tara since she was 11, describes her as “a talented young swimmer”. “Tara’s accomplishments are from her efforts toward her training,” he said. “ ‘No pain, no gain’ – this is a motto that Tara lives by.” Alesha Capone Tara took part in the recent 2018 School Sports Swimming Championships.

The Werribee Racing Club’s 2018-19 season has jumped out of the starting gate and is gearing up for a mammoth quarantine period before race meetings kick off in December. Speaking at the WRC season launch last week, racing club manager Ashley Baker said although the club couldn’t hold race meetings between September and mid-November because of quarantine restrictions, there was still plenty happening thanks to the presence of international horses stabled at the quarantine centre. Mr Baker encouraged locals to pop down to the track from mid-September and see horses that will be competing in the Spring Racing Carnival complete their morning track work.
He said this year’s International Breakfast with the Stars would be held at Werribee Racecourse on November 1, offering people a chance to rub shoulders with leading horse owners and trainers and see the Melbourne Cup trophy. More than 5000 racegoers are expected to attend the first race meet of the season, the Werribee Cup, on December 9. “Our track is metropolitan class, no doubt. The horses wouldn’t be coming [here] from Europe if they weren’t guaranteed a quality track such as ours,” Mr Baker said. “But we firmly see ourselves as a country club.” Charlene Macaulay

MY WYNDHAM Point Cook’s Mandy Kgakololo is studying fashion styling at university. She has more than 2700 followers on her Instagram account where she posts about fashion and beauty. She chats with Alesha Capone.
I am a 24-year-old fashion styling student from Africa. I moved to Australia four years ago, my dad has been here longer than that. I do fashion and beauty, these are the two areas I want to go into, career-wise – it’s both a hobby and a career. This is what I want to do, and Australia has given me the opportunity to do that, which is wonderful. I would like to have my own styling and beauty business, I feel they both go hand-in-hand. With make-up, I’m self-taught. I did a course, but I still use a lot of the skills I learned myself, just through watching YouTube and practicing, which got me to where I am now. I think it’s all about practice and I think it’s also being creative, it’s like art. From a young age, I loved fashion, and I used to play with my mum’s make-up. I’m sure a lot of little girls do, but I knew that’s what I wanted to do with my life. When I left Africa, there wasn’t really a market for that kind of job, so when I came here, I was like, ‘I’m going to do it, at last’.
I’d like to inspire young girls to do what they love doing. Many people will question you, but if you love it, I think you should do it. What do you like most about Point Cook? The restaurants, there is a lot of diversity, so you get a lot of different foods. Where I came from, I knew about Indian food for example, but it wasn’t really accessible, it was mostly food like pizza and burgers. Apart from the opportunity to study fashion styling, which is number one, I love the malls here – everything. There are lots of things, it’s hard to choose. Where is the best place to take photos for Instagram, in Wyndham? I’d say the gardens at Werribee Mansion, it’s beautiful. And what would you change about the area, if you could? Maybe the public transport, it needs to be more reliable.

FOOD REVIEW STARWEEKLY.COM.AU
CONSIDER THE SAUCE Kenny Weir is bowled over by a new eatery Yarraville village’s long-standing Chinese restaurant has gone. Truth is, it went some time ago and Coracle has taken a while to arise at the same location. The place is beautifully fitted out, mostly in blacks and whites and pale wood, with the big windows letting the light pour in. In the months leading up to its unveiling, the name alone conveyed little information about what would be the nature of the new place … so the outcome is a bit of a surprise. Let’s call it, definitely for want of a better phrase, Asian fusion. There’s a nice, tight list of breakfast items on the menu; and there’s brunchy things such as Vietnamese-style poached salad and “Super Green Gyoza”. There’s banh mi, too. Yes, $10 is a whack more than you’ll pay for banh mi in Footscray or St Albans, but the ones we see being inhaled around us look fabulous. The more substantial heart of the menu, though, is the line-up of seven Coracle Bowls. Yes, these are by way of the poke bowl trend – but Coracle’s efforts transcend just about all else we’ve tried. On the one hand, the Coracle kitchen crew appear to work with the same basic toppings for each bowl offering, with individual tweaks as advertised. On the other, there are super smarts at work here that kick our meals – three bowls over two visits – up and into the realms of magic. The bento bowl ($17) is brilliant in every way.
CORACLE CAFE RESTAURANT Address: 63-65 Anderson Street, Yarraville Phone: 9315 1411 The foundational success of every Coracle bowl very much appears to be the nuttiness of the brown rice bases. But the excellent toppings complete the job by sheer dint of quality and – equally important – by their deft apportioning. Dressed salmon cubes, kale in sesame oil, two kinds of pickle, tobiko, broad beans, seaweed salad and more – all taste as mighty fine as they look. Bennie enjoys his Korean bowl ($16.50), with excellent bulgogi beef. Though he opines that more by way of starker flavour and texture contrast would’ve made him even happier. The vegan bowl ($16.50) is good, too, though what are listed as “tempura seasonal vegetables” are quite a long way from crunchy battered. We are having such a fine Saturday lunch time we go the whole hog with the Coracle brownies ($6). These don’t look anything special. But the eating of what is both moist and chewy is of immense, top-quality choc pleasure. The brownies are sluiced down with very good cafe lattes ($4).

Looking for a way to help the community? Are you aware of a critical need in the community? The Community Bank branches of Altona, Laverton and Point Cook Business Centre will soon host forums to allow residents to raise their concerns. Altona and Laverton Community Bank branches and Point Cook Business Centre have given many thousands of dollars to local communities Altona, Laverton Community Bank branches and Point Cook Business Centre ran their first community forum in 2011 and achieved outstanding results. Designed to identify areas of need and possible projects in the communities, the inaugural forum canvassed attendees and Defib for Life was chosen as the first major project. Chairperson Henry Da Silva says the program was established in memory of 19-year-old Stephen Buckman, who collapsed and died during football training.

community groups, sporting grounds, train and service stations and swimming pools. “This has been our most successful project to date and now, with the latest round of community forums, we expect to discover new ways to assist our communities. “We encourage everyone to come along and have a say.” Altona, Laverton Community Bank branches and Point Cook Business Centre also support the L2P Program which helps 16 to 20-year-old learner drivers, who have no access to a vehicle or supervisor, attain the mandatory 120 hours driving practice needed to gain P plates. Mr da Silva said: “Achieving 120 hours practice can be a big obstacle to young people getting
their licence. The L2P Program aims to fix this by matching fully licensed volunteer mentors to young people with a current learner’s permit.” For more details on L2P, call 0487 465 687 or email l2p@lcis.org.au. “Another hugely successful and very welcome initiative of the bank, in partnership with Hobsons Bay City Council, was to introduce beach matting and adult beach-accessible wheelchairs so people with a disability can enjoy the beach under their own steam,” Mr da Silva said. “Beach wheelchairs, free to hire, are at Altona Life Saving Club – close to accessible parking, toilets and a cafe. “In the 2017-18 financial year, some 30
community members used the beach area by hiring a wheelchair and it couldn’t have been done without the support of Altona Village Traders Association, Bendigo Community Bank and Altona Rotary Club.”

FB: How would you rate your cooking skills? EM: I have the perfect marriage. I have a wife who loves to cook and is very good at it and I like to eat. This is embarrassing, but I have rarely cooked anything in my life. I walk through the kitchen, I sniff, I poke and prod and I taste – and then I get told to get out. There is a latent cook in me somewhere. FB: What don’t or won’t you eat? EM: I can’t eat the white of an egg, but I can eat scrambled eggs. I cut a poached egg like a surgeon. (Also) cooked cabbage, which – coming from an Irish background – was a problem because I could not physically eat it. FB: If you could only have one more meal, what would it be? EM: A plate with foie gras. Risotto with white truffles. A beef dish – medium rare with fresh greens and potatoes … boiled, Heston’s three-times cooked, scalloped … in fact, every potato type known to mankind. Tiramasu for dessert. FB: What is your favourite food? EM: Hard question because we are so spoiled with choice. If I had to choose, it would be Italian/French with Asian right in there as well. FB: What is your favourite drink? EM: The change in my palate in recent times has seen me pairing wines with different meals. Matching different food types with wines is wonderful fun. FB: Which five people would you most like to invite to dinner? EM: Jesus, John F Kennedy, Jock McHale (first coach of Collingwood), William Shakespeare and Thomas Jefferson. Paul Newman as first reserve. Ashave always, if you have FB: Do you a kitchen tip for us? any or other EM: Keeprecipes, me out of tips it.

Recently, I’ve developed a bit of a fascination with pies. Not the Collingwood variety – thanks, Eddie! Not the boxed-up supermarket variety you fish out of the freezer for a quick feed. No, the pies that inspire me are the ones people happen to be churning out in their pie-makers at home. Lately, social media has been serving me up pictures of everything from pie-making appliances to piping hot apple turnovers and hand-made cherry pies. There are entire Facebook threads devoted to popular pie fillings. I’m not sure there’s room in our kitchen for a portable pie-maker (obviously it would have to find room alongside The Starship Enterprise, as we call Kev’s portable pizza oven). But I think I want one. My mum used to have one, and I seem to remember leftover spag bol made an excellent pie filling! For smaller home-made pies that make delicious snacks on the run, the Sunbeam 4210 pie-maker is getting some great reviews. It makes two deep dish pies from one sheet of ready rolled pastry and is a great way to serve up leftover casseroles (think butter chicken or beef strog) or vegies. The non-stick surface gives a crispy, professionally sealed finish and it comes with its own pastry cutter. It’ll set you back about $50. Listen to the weekly Food Bytes podcast at mypodcasthouse.com. Recent guests include Eddie McGuire, Rebecca Maddern and Shane Jacobson.

Price: $1.25 million – $1.35 million
An exemplar of Federation replication executed with maximum stylishness, this beautiful house will prove hugely attractive to so many buyers. Discerning young families will love it for its contemporary take on a gracious period; entertainers will value its chic indoor and outdoor spaces; and older couples will love its elegance and high-end liveability. Owner-built, the house has all the deep skirts, rosettes, stepped cornices, picture rails, leadlight and brass light switches of the era, with ecru wall paint adding a luxe softness. But what makes it stand out from other replicas are the extraordinary effect of

transom windows which underscore lavish proportions and sense of light and airiness. Jarrah boards line the entry hall, on the right of which is a taupe-carpeted study with box bay window. The hall heads to the right, past five storage closets and to the main bedroom, with drive-through triple garage access at the end. The sumptuous main bedroom has french doors to a charming private courtyard with water feature, as well as a fitted walk-in robe and an en suite with clawfoot tub. Remaining fitted bedrooms are up carpeted stairs, at the head of which is a large living room with period features still on show,
as well as padded box seating within an alcove. The main bathroom is similarly period-styled, and there’s a laundry chute. One of the bedrooms opens to a rear balcony virtually in reach of a lilly pilly canopy. Every room is quite beautiful, including a lounge room with a cast-iron fireplace with ornate surround, and smoky sheers on brass rods dress the windows. But the star has to be the giant living hub, full of light and grace. Adjoining a dining room with french doors to back gardens, the hub incorporates the kitchen which has a granite-topped island bench,

cream cabinetry, walk-in pantry, St George 900mm cooking range and Bosch dishwasher. A storage-rich laundry opens to a lovely sealed aggregate courtyard, shaded by a lofty pine tree and adjoining a freestanding workshop and dog enclosure. The hub directly opens to a solar-heated pool, utterly private and feeling like Tuscany with the high rendered walls enclosing the space. Gardens in every section are quite stunning and easily live up to the essential grandeur of this great property. Carole Levy 29 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 15, 2018

Tigers rip into game in honour of ‘JL’ By Lance Jenkinson
By Lance Jenkinson
“Do it for JL” was the Werribee players’ catchcry before the game. Of course, the players were referring to their coach and mentor John Lamont, who announced on Thursday night he would be stepping down from his coaching post at season’s end. It was at the forefront of the players’ minds as they produced a stirring 14-point win over a Box Hill Hawks side that many feel is a Victorian Football League premiership contender this season. Small forward Andrew Hooper, who electrified Werribee with five goals, said the respect the players have for Lamont was apparent for all to see in their post-game celebrations. “It was a great end to an emotional week,” Hooper said. “It was good to get a win for the boys over a top-four side at the time and to do it for JL. “It really showed after the win when we were singing the song, all the boys got around him and that’s what shows how much he means to the boys.” Hooper has only been involved with Werribee this season, but even in a short space of time Lamont has had a big impact on him. Werribee coach John Lamont joined the players for a rousing rendition of the club song after the win over Box Hill. (Jessica Ward Photography) “He’s been phenomenal,” Hooper said. “He’s all for the club, he’s all for his staff victory. Little did they know that Werribee Werribee’s side after two years of frustration “To hold on to the win, it was important had one last burst in them, which yielded and he’s never about himself. with constant knee issues. that we kept it boundary-side and try to four unanswered goals. “It’s his professionalism, his feedback.

SPORT Warriors brilliant rise earns a flag tilt the team was at five months ago. When the Warriors played in a pre-season tournament, they had to borrow overflow players from opposition teams just to have enough bodies to compete. The Warriors started pre-season with eight players, then four left. By the time the tournament came around, they had a grand total of 11. Fast forward five months and Pawlowski has 30 players to choose from and there will be some heartbreak at the selection table. “We’ve been recruiting throughout the season,” she said. “We gained a full forward in round three, a really good ruck in round five, about five or six players from Caroline Springs – and the team also kept learning.” Westbourne will head into the grand final on the back of an eight-game winning streak. The
Warriors are full of confidence after beating MCC by 36 points in the preliminary final on Sunday. Victoria Pettit, Samantha Radlof, Sarah Knight and Rennae Robinson were driving forces in the midfield. Knight and Robinson rotated tagging roles on MCC’s Holly Bailey, the league best-and-fairest winner, and limited her impact. In defence, Shannon Colgan and Caitlyn Snow were outstanding, while Brianna Herman and Lauren Spark kicked two goals apiece. Westbourne has one more “first” to achieve for 2018 – win a premiership. Pawlowski is confident. “This week will just be as fun as possible, but we will be sticking to our game. It’s as simple as that.” Lance Jenkinson
Bees drop their bundle By Lance Jenkinson Werribee City has been a giant tease in National Premier League 2 west soccer this season. The Bees have turned heads when they have displayed their full potential against some of the better sides in the competition. But just as they were beginning to be taken seriously in the promotion conversation, they have blown it. What looked on paper to be their easiest four-game stretch has turned into a nightmare for Bees coach Sergio Sabbadini and his players. “If we can’t beat the teams below us, we don’t deserve to go up and we’ve struggled with that the past month,” Sabbadini said. “We’ve lost to the bottom side, the second bottom side and now we’ve lost to the eighth-placed team. “It’s no point beating the top sides and then losing to the bottom sides.” It would have been no surprise if Werribee City had reaped the maximum 12 points from its past four games to move into the promotion hunt. But the Bees could manage only three points in that span – winning once and losing three. They found a new way to let one slip in a 2-1 loss to Whittlesea Ranges at Epping Stadium on Saturday. The Bees trailed for most of the game, but were given a lifeline when Whittlesea’s Christopher Dib scored an own goal. Instead of going on to challenge for the three points, Werribee City conceded a minute later in circumstances that did not impress Sabbadini. “We had about six really good chances to score throughout the game and didn’t convert,” he said. “Then we finally scored the equaliser and we were making plans on the bench to try to find a way to win the game. “They put in what should have been a harmless cross, which we failed to clear and their guy [Anthony Ramzy] managed to score.” It was a frustrating end for Werribee City, which could have stayed alive in the top two hunt given the way results fell at the weekend. But the Bees are no more than a mathematical chance now with four games to go and a 10-point gap to bridge on second-placed St Albans Saints. The Bees will need a miracle from here. The past month has shone a revealing light on why Werribee City is not yet ready to be a contender. “This game showed up our frailties,” Sabbadini said. “We’ve struggled to have a consistent goalscorer at one end and we cough up cheap goals at the other. Our actual game plan is good, the way we’re playing is quite good, we’re
IN THE DOGHOUSE ■ Could you imagine a highly-prized AFL country or interstate teenage recruit landing at his new place of employment, being introduced to his host family and then spending the next two years living in a caravan in the family’s front yard, and loving it? Way back in 1974 that is exactly what Warburton recruit Terry Wheeler did. ‘Wheels’ recounted his early days at Whitten Oval to the crowd at the East West Young Guns and Legends dinner last week. Conversely, 2018 recruits Ed Richard and Aaron Naughton spent the first month of their AFL life sharing digs with Marcus Bontempeli and Mitch Wallis respectively. Wheeler runs the Williamstown past players group and is a regular attendee at Bulldogs past player event. He was joined on the panel by Nigel Kellett and Adrian Campbell - two players he coached. ■ Kellett played 101 games in the red, white and blue and his son Josh is on the club’s father-son radar. Young Kellett was very impressed to receive a jumper with the number 4 on the back, but not because his father played nearly all his games in that number, it was more to do with the current incumbent Marcus Bontempeli. Campbell was highly rated by the club but supporters never got to see his full power because of injuries. ■ Simon Madden was a great player and is a very entertaining storyteller and character. You can see him in action this week at the Hoppers Club. The legendary Essendon ruckman and premiership player has joined with former teammate Mark Eustice to present a night of inspirational, enlightening and entertaining stories about their lives, on and off the field. Eustice, universally known as ‘Wally,’ has come back from mental illness, drug and alcohol addiction, and has a remarkable story to tell. Bookings through reception@hoppersclub.com. au. All proceeds go to Reclink. ■ I could easily write a dozen columns about Dale Morris and John Lamont, two exceptional football men. Morris became the oldest player to reach 250 games last week, while Lamont announced he would not be continuing as senior coach of the Werribee Football Club past this season. Morris played 36 games at Werribee before the Bulldogs drafted him. Lamont came from a development role with North Melbourne to Avalon Airport Oval where he has been senior coach for five years.

one of the only teams that actually tries to play football, but at the end of the day it has counted for nothing. “We’ve probably got to get a different balance and we probably need a couple of players, too.” Werribee City, sitting fifth on the ladder, will face sixth-placed Brunswick City in consecutive weeks. The two sides will meet in a catch-up game for their postponed round seven clash at
Galvin Park this Saturday, then square off again a week later at Dunstan Reserve. Sabbadini concedes his team’s promotion hopes are likely gone, but he expects the Bees to end the season on a high note. “We still want to win our last four games,” he said. “It’s been a better season than last year and it will give us something to build with for next year.”

It has been a season of firsts for Westbourne Grammarians in Victorian Amateur Football Association women’s division 3. The Warriors have ticked off the milestones – first game, first goal, first win, first finals appearance, first finals win. And now they can add first grand final to that growing list. Inaugural coach Emma Pawlowski will be in charge of the Warriors’ big day when they take on Preston Bullants in the grand final at Trevor Barker Beach Oval on Sunday morning. Pawlowski will implore her team to cherish the moment. “Sometimes people can go through their whole lives without playing in a grand final, so I want the girls to remember this week and enjoy the moments that will come,” she said. Westbourne’s appearance in the season decider is a superb feat considering where

Quiet achiever makes the cut Carly James is not one to put forecasts on her hockey career. The modest potential future Hockeyroo prefers to live in the now and make the most of every moment she gets on the hockey field. You have to go to outside sources to get a picture of James’ potential in the game. The ultimate endorsement of her talent comes in the form of selection in the Australian national junior women’s squad, which identifies athletes capable of progressing to the senior program as future Hockeyroos. The appraisal does not get much bigger for a 20-year-old Footscray Hockey Club defender. “It was pretty humbling to be put into this squad,” James said. “I never expected to be named or identified for it. “It’s going to really help develop me as a player. “I’ll get to learn what the best players at this age in the country do, how they train, how they prepare and even just learning different skills off other defenders and add it into my game.” While Hockey Australia plans the make up of its squads years before the players make the grade, James is more concerned about the here
and now and doing the one-per centers to keep on improving. The full-back simply wants to better herself every day, whether it be on the defensive line for Footscray in the premier league, the Victorian Vipers in the Australian Hockey League or the Australian under-age team, or even in her physical education and sports science studies at Victoria University. “I’ve always been someone who has always gone week by week,” James said. “My thing has always been to just enjoy my hockey. “Since being selected in the futures, I might have to start thinking longer term!” The other glowing endorsement of James’ game was her selection to the Victorian Vipers squad last week. It will be James’ first open age state representative gig, though donning the Big V is certainly not foreign territory for her, having been involved in most under age Victorian teams growing up. “It was nice to be named in the Vipers squad of 22,” she said. “I’ll get to work with some of the girls who have been in the Hockeyroos squad.”
James, who lives in Point Cook, has been influential at state and local level this season. She has marshalled a young Footscray defence with aplomb in the premier league and is one of the keys to their premiership chances. Her performances for the bronze medal-winning Victorian under-21s at the nationals put her on the radar of the Australian junior national women’s squad. “It’s been a pretty big year for me this year,” James said. James is the August 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. James will receive $1000, donated by the Yarraville Club Cricket Club, and other prizes to assist her in achieving her sporting goals. Lance Jenkinson

Point Cook players celebrate winning the inaugural WRFL Netball competition. (Local Legends Photography)
Bulldogs bring it home By Lance Jenkinson Point Cook executed close to a perfect grand final performance in a 47-13 win over Braybrook in the inaugural WRFL Netball season. The Bulldogs hardly had a weak link as they dismantled the Bombers in a one-sided season decider at the VU Community Sports Stadium on Friday night to secure the premiership. Elated Bulldogs netball co-ordinator and team manager Sam Pruscino said her charges had enjoyed “a pearler” of a game. “We had everything working at both ends and our mid-court has been a strength all year,” she said. Everything went so smoothly for Point Cook that coach Nicole Case and her assistant, Karlie Simons, did not call for reinforcement off the bench. The Bulldogs had 10 players named, but only seven saw any action. Pruscino was pleased with the reaction of the unused players. “They were all players that helped get the girls to the grand final,” Pruscino said. “The 58 WYNDHAM STAR WEEKLY \ AUGUST 15, 2018
three that didn’t get court time took it really well and were really supportive. They cheered, they supported.” Best-on-court honours went to Point Cook goal shooter Jenna Goricanec. Goricanec was the leading goal shooter in the grand final – and the most potent in the competition all season. “She’s really tall, quite agile and pops them in from anywhere,” Pruscino said. Goricanec has nice synergy with her goal attack, Holly Ellul. Ellul is constantly moving in the front third and putting Goricanec in good positions to score. “She feeds the ball in, does a lot of hard work on the outside of the circle to get it to Jenna for a good shot,” Pruscino said. The mid-court players were inspired by centre Jacqui McClurg, who wore the brunt of Braybrook’s physicality and was not fazed. “She was against one of Braybrook’s more physical players,” Pruscino said. “She held her own against her and was a good option throughout the mid-court.”
Also busy in the Point Cook mid-court were wing attack Bec Gass and wing defence Caitlin Brennan. The Bulldogs were led defensively by goal keeper Jo Crozier and goal defence Jane Goodier. Point Cook celebrated its premiership long and hard on Friday night. “It was a well-deserved celebration because it was a good season and the girls trained really hard and brought it home in the end,” Pruscino said. Pruscino praised the WRFL for its running of the inaugural netball competition and said she expected it to grow. “I think it’s been absolutely amazing,” she said. “At the start of the season, we were really unsure of what to expect. “We didn’t know if we’d be wasting our time, wasting our players’ time, but after the first couple of games we played, we knew this was the real deal. “This is what we wanted and it’s only going to get bigger and better going forward.”
Manor Lakes remains alive in the Western Region Football League division 2 finals race after a crushing 73-point win over third-placed North Footscray at Howqua Reserve on Saturday. The Storm, which needed to win to keep in touch with the top four, scored 11 goals to two in the first half to lead by 56 points at the main break. The Storm closed out the game with a six-goal-to-two second half. Ty Priest was the focal point for the Storm with five goals, while Nathan Montague capped a stellar performance with three. Mitchell Davis also kicked three goals in the rout. With two rounds to go, Manor Lakes has seven wins – just one win behind both North Footscray and Parkside. Interestingly, North Footscray and Parkside will meet in the next round, so Manor Lakes has a chance to draw level with at least one of those two sides if it can beat Newport Power away at Bryan Martyn Oval on Saturday. In division 1, Hoppers Crossing jumped to third with a 51-point win over Wyndhamvale. Werribee Districts ceded fourth spot after a 13-point loss to Altona. In division 3, Wyndham Suns lost their third game in four outings, to Point Cook Centrals by 12 points, tumbling from first to third. Tarneit is the new ladder leader after a 97-point win over Laverton. The Titans will square off with Centrals at Featherbrook Reserve on Saturday, with the winner to be in outright first place heading into the final round. Lance Jenkinson

Sporting life for Ford Escape By Ewan Kennedy, Marque Motoring The Ford Escape ST-Line is a new model to the local Ford range, a sports-oriented mid-sized SUV that will go on sale in September. As more and more buyers are moving from sedans and hatches to the practicability of an SUV Ford Australia can obviously see an opening for added sales. The 2018 Ford Escape ST-Line features bold exterior and interior styling, alloy wheels and sport seat designs. The 18-inch Absolute Black alloy wheels are matched to the front grille, foglamp surrounds, roof rails and rear valence for a tough, sporty look. Though it’s nominally an SUV, the ST-Line is aimed at on-road performance not off-road running. It has lowered ride height by 10mm, retuned steering and thicker anti-roll bars for reduced body roll and sharper responses. A new leather trim design is used throughout the cabin and it features red-stitching to match the ST-Line logo. Red stitching is also used on the gear-lever and steering wheel. Stainless steel pedals match the scuff plates and sit over the ST-Line floor mats. Escape ST-Line has Smart Keyless Entry, Blind Spot Information System and Rear Cross-Traffic Alert as part of its Driver Assist suite. An optional ST-Line Technology Pack (MLP $800) adds Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Alert, Tyre Pressure Monitor, Lane Keeping Aid with Lane Departure Warning. Ford’s SYNC 3 system is standard across the Escape line-up and includes in-built voice activation, native sat-nav as well as Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Apple users can enable Siri for iPhone functions. Power comes from 2.0-litre four-cylinder engine with 178kW of power and 345Nm

of torque. The official fuel consumption is 8.6L/100km on the combined cycle. It uses Ford’s Intelligent-All-Wheel Drive, which adjusts the delivery of torque to each wheel every 16 milliseconds to maximise road grip and safety. Previously an option on topline Ford Escape models, AEB (Autonomous Emergency
Braking) is now standard in all 2018 Escapes. A smart move because more and more stupid drivers are spending time looking at their phones instead of the road ahead. Though it’s not going on sale until September it might be an idea to contact your local Ford dealers sooner, as the Escape ST-Line will be in high demand.
