‘Living Legend’ is a term not often used lightly.
For Bacchus Marsh resident Bob Closter, the status is fitting
for his contribution to Bacchus Marsh Pony Club for more
than 40-years.
Mr Closter was presented with Pony Club Australia’s
‘Living Legend’ special commemoration award on Sunday
7 July, awarded to those aged 80 and over who have made
a significant contribution to pony clubs around the country.
Nominated by BMPC, Life Member Mr Closter was
recognised for his contribution not only as a parent and
grandparent of the club, as president between 1981-1987, but
for his continued devotion to the club in the many years
since.
He has helmed various roles throughout the decades;
including as an instructor, coach, committee member and
groundskeeper.

The award was a surprise for Mr Closter, who had been
informed by his family that he was “going to inspect a pony
for a couple of my great-grandchildren” on the day of the
presentation, joking that he hadn’t realised photos had gone
missing around his home in the lead-up to the day.
“It wasn’t until I saw my family there that I knew something
was happening, I wasn’t going to see any pony,” he said.
Horses are in the blood of Mr Closter, who began riding at
a young age.
“I was a rider in my younger days,” he said, recalling of
times competing in Melbourne gymkhanas.
After his children, grandchildren and later great-
grandchildren joined BMPC, Mr Closter’s commitment to the
club has never waned – even when well into his 80s.
“I’ve always gone up…I generally go up on a Sunday; it
might only be for a couple of hours, but I still go,” he said.
Former BMPC President Simon Karp, who presented Mr
FREE
Vol 13 No 28
Closter with the certificate, said Bob’s contribution has been
“invaluable to the club”.
“He’s been a long-standing member, a lot of the younger
[members] know him as the ‘guy that’s out there on the
tractor’, but [he makes part] of the little things that clubs can’t
function without,” he said.
As for why he stayed part of the club for so many decades,
the answer for Mr Closter is simple.
“I enjoyed the kids. That’s why I was there,” he said, tears
pricking his eyes.
“I think the most pleasure that I would probably get is
seeing the little ones go up through their certificates and
become nice neat little riders.
That’s all I wanted.”
Mr Closter’s Pony Club Australia ‘Living Legend’ award
was only one of three presented nationally.

Weather halts works

By Helen Tatchell

Towards Zero is a plan to achieve fewer than 200 deaths

by 2020 and reduce serious injuries by 15% on Victoria’s
roads, with the State government investing $1.4 billion
into the campaign.
One of the projects, as part of Towards Zero is works
to improve the surface along Geelong-Bacchus Marsh
Rd around the Balliang East area and was scheduled for
completion by June 2019. However, works have stopped
and not due to commence until mid-September.
A statement by Regional Roads Victoria said the
works, between Peak School Road and Granite Road on
Geelong-Bacchus Marsh Road, will be on hold during
winter, due to cold and wet conditions between Monday
15 July and mid-September 2019.
“We have experienced delays to excavation works from
heavy rainfall, which delayed our anticipated completion
date of mid-2019.
“Sealing works will recommence once more favourable
weather conditions permit after mid-September,” the
statement read.
RRV said they will place temporary bollards to mark
the boundary of traffic lanes in both directions along the
road.
“Temporary ramps will be installed where a drop off

New Act will

A new Local Government Act is being
proposed by the Andrews State Government
and is seeking community feedback.
The plan is to improve democracy,

Victoria’s 79 Councils outlined in the
proposed Act.

providing for ongoing accountability,” he
said.
But what effect will this have on Moorabool
Shire Council and are there any benefits?
Moorabool CEO Derek Madden responded
to the Moorabool News.
“We anticipate the reforms will have little
impact on Moorabool, with the exception of
Council wards,” he said.

By Meg Kennedy
The upcoming ‘Pink Up Ballan’ event is a
step closer to becoming a reality, with the
second general meeting held earlier this
month.
Twenty Ballan and surrounding district
residents gathered in-person at Ballan
Community House on Wednesday, 9
July, with even more watching online via
Facebook to discuss and plan the event, set
to be held in October.
‘Pink Up Your Town’ is an initiative of the
McGrath Foundation to use the month of
October to Pink Up towns around Australia,
in order to raise funds for and awareness of
the foundation’s work in providing breast
care nurses to patients.
As well as ‘pinking-up’ the town itself,
events are set to be held in Ballan throughout
October, concluding with a Pink Mayoral Ball
at St Anne’s Winery on Friday, 1 November.
Local businesses and organisations are
also getting heavily involved with the
project, with the Ballan Commercial Hotel,
Ballan and District CWA, Mt Egerton Hall,
Springfield’s Garage and Scruffy Fella to
hold events or make active donations leading
up to and throughout the event.
Pink Up Ballan Co-ordinator Kevin Harper
said he is “encouraged and overwhelmed by
the level of support and interest shown so
far.”
“Breast cancer has touched many in our
community…this is an event for everyone to
be involved with,” he said.
“From kinder to the schools, service groups,
craft groups and local businesses, even the
individual family unit, we can work together
to put Ballan on the map for another good
reason.”
The next community meeting is at the Ballan
Community House, 6:30pm on Wednesday
17 July. All are welcome to attend, and
videos of the first two community meetings
are available to view on the ‘Pink Up Ballan’
Facebook page.

• Simplifying and clarify enrolments for voters in council elections
• Introducing mandatory training for council election candidates and councillors
• Capping electoral campaign donations and gifts
• Allowing for the dismissal of a councillor after a community-initiated Commission
of Inquiry
• Defining standards of conduct to guide councillor behaviour and make dealing
with councillor conduct issues faster and easier
• Introducing a preference for single member wards to make councils more
accountable.
The new Bill retains the reforms under the 2018 Bill that
were designed to empower councils to improve service
delivery, by focusing on deliberative engagement and
long-term financial management.
These reforms will:
• Require councils to involve their community in developing policy and long-term
planning
• Align CEO employment and renumeration to public sector entities
• Enable joint meetings of councils and greater council collaboration and
innovation
• Empower community members to set the agenda for their municipality through
a Community Vision.

Over the next two years, Victoria Police will
roll out more than 14,000 of the new-look
ballistic vests to all police officers, Protective
Services Officers (PSOs) and Police Custody
Officers (PCOs) to replace current vests.
Acting Assistant Commissioner Nigel
Howard said the new vests have been
developed to improve officer safety and will
align with modern police work and current
technologies.
“Our police officers, PSOs and PCOs all had
a role to play in developing these new vests,
so we know they’re fit for purpose and meet
the requirements of modern policing,” A/AC
Howard said.
“The new vests are lighter, allow for greater
thermal management and improved freedom
of movement with increased adjustability,”
he said.
“We’ve also designed these vests to be future
proofed by incorporating better integration
with modern policing equipment such as the
body worn cameras.”
As well as a change from navy blue to black,
other changes include safe and streamlined
access to equipment; improved freedom of
movement; lighter in weight and thermal

Schoemaker, that Joshua Bielecki attended his neighbour’s
property on July 13 last year, damaging his front door with
black marking pen.
The court heard Bielecki wrote “keep slamming the door
and I’ll slam your head”, on the victim’s door, claiming the
victim “slams the door on his way to work,” the prosecution
said.
The accused claimed he had paid $100 to his neighbour
to cover the damage. However, the victim was an attendee
in court and said he hadn’t received any monetary
compensation.
Bielecki’s lawyer told the court his client struggles with
stress and anxiety, and at the time of his offending he was
suffering through a period of alcohol abuse.
“He hasn’t been in trouble since August 2018,” the accused’s
lawyer said.
Magistrate Robinson told Bielecki he needs “to start taking
responsibility for [his] actions.”
He was convicted and fined $500 and ordered to pay $180 in
compensation.

Better access for fishers

We know recreational fishers want clear access to rivers and lakes, more places
to fish and simpler rules when they get there. That’s why the State Government
is investing $35 million into its Target One Million plan to:

Open new waters to small craft

• Expand on-water access to reservoirs so
canoes/kayaks can be enjoyed, including:
- Barkers Creek (now open to canoes/kayaks)
- Tullaroop (now open to canoes/kayaks and
small boats with electric motors)
• From 1 August 2019, canoes/kayaks will be
able to access Upper Coliban, Hepburn,
Malmsbury and Lauriston reservoirs. When
boat ramps are built, small boats with electric
motors will be permitted too.

Open up river frontages

River frontage land under crown grazing licences
belongs to all Victorians, which is why we will
mandate camping access to hundreds of sites
right across the state.
We want more fishers and their families fishing
and camping in the great outdoors!

Target One Million will also increase stocking to a record 10 million by 2022, buy out commercial net
fishing in the Gippsland Lakes and build a new native fish hatchery near Shepparton.

Moorabool Shire Active Ageing

Three 2 hour sessions providing information on a wide range of transport

options and support services to promote older people remaining mobile,
travelling confidently and safely and staying connected to the community.
In support of Victoria’s Road Safety Strategy 2013-2022, Wiser Walker aims to encourage safe road
sharing, in particular the safe mobility of all older people. The information focuses on assisting people
to make safe travel choices as drivers, pedestrians and users of alternative travel options.

Accessing everyday activities and being part of the wider community is a key part of our well-being
and social connectedness. If the car is not an option, quality of life can be considerably reduced- we
need to be confident accessing a wide variety of viable transport alternatives.

It is important that older drivers build up a bank of knowledge about travel alternatives long before
there is a need to cease driving, to maintain mobility, and minimise the stress and other negative
factors associated with important life changes.

having recently created a special program
for writers from regional Victoria.
From August 2019 to June 2020, KYD will
publish the work of regional Victorian

writers every month, with all contributors
paid for their work.
KYD and Writers Victoria define regional
Victorian writers as those who live more
than 50km from the Melbourne GPO.
Peter Carey Short Story Award organiser
and local author Wayne Marshall said the
program “is an excellent initiative, providing
a fantastic opportunity for local writers to
have their work showcased in such a quality
and well-known magazine.
Mr Marshall’s Victorian Premier’s Award-
nominated work will appear in the upcoming
‘New Australian Fiction’ collection.
“Hopefully it’s the first of many such
initiatives…after the strong response to the
Best Local Award component of the recent
Peter Carey Short Story Award, it’s clear
we have many talented writers working in
Moorabool Shire,” he said.
A dedicated portal for regional Victorian
writers is now open on the website’s
‘Submittable’ page.

Victorian Writers Program, visit

wintery weather
By Meg Kennedy
A week of wild weather hit Moorabool last
week, resulting in a number of emergency
calls to local SES services.
SES confirmed to the Moorabool News that
the Midwest District, which encompasses
Ballarat, Ballan and Bacchus Marsh
surrounds, received 101-calls for assistance
over the 24-hour period of 10–12 July.
Majority of call-outs related to trees down,
including one near the Freeway at Pykes
Creek on the morning of Thursday, 11 July.
Ballan received 17.2mm of rain on the night
of Wednesday, 10 July, with Bacchus Marsh
receiving 5.6mm.
Winds were the danger factor throughout
the night, with Bacchus Marsh receiving
gusts of up to 80km/h in the early hours of
the morning.

RATES AND VALUATIONS EXPLAINED
Council’s 2019/20 Budget was passed by Council at the Ordinary Meeting of Council
on 3 July 2019. We are taking the opportunity to inform our community about rates
and valuations so everyone has a better understanding of the process. This week the
focus is on annualised valuations.
Previously Municipal Council’s within Victoria were
required to appoint either a qualified valuer or the Valuer
General’s Office to conduct revaluations of land within the
municipality every two years.
However, the Valuer General Victoria is now the sole
valuation authority and will be conducting revaluations of
land within the municipality every year.
The issuing of the 2019/20 Rate and Valuation Notices coincides with the implementation
of the first annualised valuation cycle. It is important to note that any increase in the
valuation base does not change the total amount of rates to be generated by Council.

Unsightly ‘art’ will
be removed
By Meg Kennedy
Moorabool Shire Council is now one of 20
councils in Victoria to receive a grant from
the State Government to aid in managing
graffiti and vandalism.
Member for Melton Steve McGhie
announced last month that Moorabool Shire
received a $24,600 share as part of the State
Government’s Graffiti Prevention Grants.
The funding has been provided to the Shire
for the development of a Graffiti Management
Strategy, which will assist Council to reduce
the social, environmental and economic
impacts of illegal graffiti across Moorabool.
Moorabool Shire Council confirmed the
grant funding has been executed and the
project has commenced.
“The project will include an audit to
understand the prevalence of graffiti
within the Shire, consultation with the local
community, and the development of short,
medium and long-term improvement actions
as part of the strategy,” said Community
Assets and Infrastructure Acting General
Manager Ewen Nevett.
He also confirmed that community
engagement processes “will commence over
the coming months.”
The strategy is intended to expand on the
principles of Council’s Graffiti Management
Policy and assist in managing and
minimising the impacts of graffiti through
eradication, education, engagement and
enforcement.

News
The current policy, which was revised in
June 2019, outlines that although Council
will remove graffiti from Council property, it
is not permitted to remove graffiti from any
public assets such as public transport, public
utilities, telecommunications, post boxes,
fire hydrants or public lighting.
Although graffiti on private property is the
responsibility of the owner or occupier of the
land to remove, Council can enforce owners
with ‘unsightly’ graffiti for it to be removed.
Offensive graffiti on private assets which
adjoins Council land may be removed by
Council at the discretion of a member of the
Executive Group.
“It’s great that Moorabool Council will be
able to develop a strategy to manage illegal
graffiti and local residents are able to be
involved in graffiti prevention projects and,
take pride in their community and improve
perceptions of public safety,” said Member
for Melton Steve McGhie.
The grants are part of the Victorian
Government’s Community Crime
Prevention Program, which supports local
communities to prevent crime and improve
community safety.
Residents are encouraged to contact Crime
Stoppers on 1800 333 000 to report any
graffiti or vandalism, provide information
regarding graffiti vandals or people acting
suspiciously.
Graffiti on public land or assets can be
reported to Council by phoning Customer
Service on 5366 7100.

GREASE – It’s Time to Relive
Everyone’s Favourite Musical
Performing Arts Headquarters (PAHQ) is presenting everyone’s favourite musical,
Grease, at the Impresario Theatre in August and September. Bacchus Marsh’s very
own Community Theatre Company is responsible for staging musical productions
locally for the past 22 years and is following the enormous acclaim of their 2018
production of We Will Rock You, with Grease. The production will once again feature
spectacular sound and lighting, a cast of over 50 singers, actors and dancers,
dazzling costumes and all the fun, attitude, angst and toe-tappin’ rock ‘n’ roll music
that is synonymous with this 1950s inspired musical.
Regardless of when you last saw the movie, it’s always a good time to relive the
story of Danny and Sandy, the teenage lovebirds, as they struggle to reignite their
summer holiday passion while dealing with the trials and tribulations of school, friends
and teenage life in the 1950s. Who can forget the conflicting stories of their summer
romance (‘Summer Nights’), Sandy’s tragic introduction to being a Pink Lady at the
sleepover (‘Freddy, My Love’ and ‘Look at Me, I’m Sandra Dee’), the thrill of a drag
car’s unrealised potential (‘Greased Lightning’) and the excitement of Senior Prom
with Rydell High’s nationally-televised ‘Dance-Off’ (‘Born to Hand-Jive’)?
PAHQ’s production will feature all the classic songs from the Grease musical as
well as the iconic and beloved songs made famous by the 1978 movie version
starring John Travolta and Olivia Newton-John, including ‘Grease Is The Word’,
‘Hopelessly Devoted To You’, ‘We Go Together’ and ‘You’re The One That I Want’.
To book tickets to this family friendly production, jump online (www.trybooking.
com/BDWOJ), drop us a line (ph: 5367 6864) or pop into the Impresario Theatre
(5 Grant Street, Bacchus Marsh). Tickets have been kept very affordable - Adults:
$28, Concession: $20 and Children: $16, with a Family Ticket (2Ad/2Ch): $80.
Discount tickets are available for all shows on the first weekend and ankle-biters
2 years and under are free.
For those keen to travel back to the 50s, when Elvis was King and hula hoops,
diners, jukeboxes and drive-in movies were all the rage, audiences attending the
matinee and evening performances on Saturday 14th September are encouraged to
dust off their blue jeans, leather jackets, poodle skirts, bobby socks and letterman
jackets to attend in classic 1950s attire.
For a sneaky taste of what to expect
at the show, catch PAHQ’s ‘Highlights

Letters to the Editor
Email: news@themooraboolnews.com.au
Dear Editor,
It was with great sadness and
disappointment that I read in the Moorabool
News of 2 July 2019, that the Wombat State
Forest is imminently likely to become a
National Park following a “proposal” from
the Victorian Environmental Assessment
Council (VEAC).
I have been a Ballan resident for 30-years and
in that time have regularly used the Wombat
for my chosen recreational pursuits. These
include bush walking, fishing, camping and
trail bike riding.
There seemed to be little advertising or
consultation with the general public on this
issue. I do wonder how many of the local
sporting groups were formally notified or
did they find out about the “proposal” the
same way I did, via an “against petition” on
a bar at a local pub.
I am not opposed to National Parks, on the
contrary, I protested against the Gordon/
Franklin River damming, a true wilderness
saved. In my limited experience many less
prominent National Parks lack the proper
staffing, funding and infrastructure to make
them a truly sustainable or cost-effective
option to the tax payer hence, the poor state
they are in when considering road and track
maintenance, up keep to toilets, information
boards, bins, BBQs and camping facilities
to name the obvious. Feeble is a word that
springs to mind. Will the Wombat become
one of these?
A few of my concerns are;
- Money better spent. As climate change is
a factor for the formation of the NPs then
allocate the time, money and resources to fix
climate change. The cost of re-branding and
the ongoing up-keep of the proposed NPs
will sadly, only delay the inevitable to the
concerns highlighted by the VEAC report.
- The viability of local business. Greendale,
Blackwood and Trentham Hotels, fuel and
food outlets will see a reduction in income
due to a drop in clientele from the alienation
of four wheel drivers, horse riders, firewood
collectors, hunters and weekend campers.
- The approved “proposal” would now push
myself and many visitors to the Whipstick
Scrub. Oh great, a much smaller parcel of
land and now inundated with scores of
public users. How long before Llandeillo
Lane residents complain of increased traffic,
noise, road degradation and public safety
before local and state government declares
Whipstick out of bounds?
Why does Wombat have to become a National
Park? Compromise. Leave the classification
as a State Forest. Reconsider or reinstate the
size/number of areas to become restricted
and clearly mark conservation zones for
head waters and rare and threatened species
rather than take a blanket approach of
banning. This will still allow all users to
pursue recreational activities as well as the
continuation of firewood collection, hunting,
prospecting, mining and quarrying.
Something I will never understand about
Government is the fact they love revenue,
be it in the form of licences, registrations,
permit fees, fines, etc. They rave on about
how much money recreational and sporting
groups/clubs/individuals put back into the
economy BUT the places we get to use our
equipment with relative freedom becomes
smaller and smaller as the years roll by and
at what “bang for buck” to the end user. I
wonder where my son’s son will go?

Dear Editor,
In 1921 a building of great significance
and importance to the town of Longreach,
Queensland, was opened and became
the home of the Queensland Ambulance
Transport Brigade. This building will be
celebrating its centenary in 2021. A book is
being compiled by volunteers to document
the history of the past 100-years of this
Heritage listed building. Over the years,
many people ventured to Longreach to carry
out the valuable and demanding work of
Ambulance Bearers (Officers). For the book,
we are seeking contributions from relatives
or friends of those who served as Bearers.
Anyone who would like to contribute,
please send information to:
158 Ibis Street, Longreach Qld, 4730.
Alternatively contact Elaine on 0488 986 557

Dear Editor,
“If that gets turned into a national park…
this is a bushfire waiting to happen.”
This comment by Bill Schultz in last week’s
(MN 2 July) Moorabool Times is one that
is continually used by opponents of any
proposed change to land status of our forests.
In their final report, VEAC has specifically
stated that the current DEWLP planned
burn operations, regardless of land status,
are to continue as is. The Lerderderg State
Park, which adjoins much of the proposed
additional national park, was gazetted in
1988 giving it virtually the same status as
a national park. A quick look at the Vic
Emergency web site will show that numerous
planned burns have been carried out in the
east and west of the Lerderderg State Park
in the last 10-years alone, an indication that
state park status has meant no reduction of
planned burns by DELWP.
Interestingly, Lerderderg State Park has had
less than half a dozen small wildfires, much
less than the surrounding state forest in
those 30-years since becoming a state park.
I would have thought a drying and warming
climate is a bigger concern when it comes
to being worried about increased wildfires
in Victoria, rather than name changes to
particular forests.

young families to move out
here, not just because buying

council. Yes in some cases for
various reasons council will
need to approve it. However Council members can’t decide to open a K Mart.
It’s up to the individual or company to decide which type of business they would like to
open. If BP would like to open another service station well that’s because BP have decided to
do that, not because council thought it would be a good idea.

Sewer tunnel proposed
under freeway
By Helen Tatchell
It is not uncommon for a tunnel to take large volumes of
traffic underneath a body of water, for example the English
Channel and the Burnley tunnel, but what about a tunnel
bored underneath the Western Freeway…..that will pipe
sewerage?
This bold plan was discussed in depth at the 3 July Council
meeting and involves a few obstacles, but not ‘blind mullets’.
Despite the Council Officers recommendation to ‘defer the
consideration of the amendment until the completion of
the Rural Land Use Strategy’, the request for Authorisation
Planning Scheme Amendment C87 at 135 Ballanee Road,
Ballan will be sent to the Minister, after Central Ward
Councillor Paul Tatchell put up an alternate recommendation
that fellow councillors voted to accept.
But it was not without debate.
The proposal is for a combined planning scheme
amendment to rezone a portion of the ‘Ballanee’ property
site (approximately 95 ha) from Farming Zone (FZ) to Rural
Living Zone (RLZ), amend the existing schedule to allow for
a 2ha minimum subdivision size and reduce the extent of the
Heritage Overlay. It is noted that a small portion of the site is
already zoned RLZ. The amendment also seeks to subdivide
the property to 42 lots. All lots are proposed to be 2ha in size,
except for five lots that vary between 2.1 and 2.5ha.
West councillor Tom Sullivan objected to the alternate
motion for an amendment.
“This is a spot rezoning, they generally fail. There is no
strategic justification; this is an excellent application, but will
fail at the threshold,” he said.
“Every policy has half a dozen dot points. My position is we
would be better to make sure we have all the ammunition to
get it right rather than fail. There is not strategic justification,

BP proposal after Bunnings booted
By Helen Tatchell
Two new service stations could become bookends at
Maddingley and Bacchus Marsh with proposed planning
permit applications submitted to Moorabool Shire Council.
The first planning permit application is on the Bacchus
Marsh/Geelong road, south of the Woolpack road
intersection, and is a proposal for ‘Development and Use of
a Service Station and Convenience Restaurant, Display of
Signage and Creation of Access to a Road Zone Category 1’,
at an estimated cost of $927,000. The site was previously used
for stock grazing.
The second planning permit application is on Gisborne road
(west side), near the Western Freeway on/off ramps and is
the same site that saw a now denied permit application for
a Bunnings Warehouse. This application is a proposal for
Max Closter trains over the Ninja Warrior obstacles.

this is spot rezoning.
“There is nothing in our Planning Scheme that gives it a
trigger point to proceed,” Cr Sullivan said.
Cr Tatchell responded by saying in the debate he respected
Cr Sullivan’s judgement.
“The issue in particular is that opportunity knocks.
“Developers usually drive in with a bulldozer and drive out
with an Armaguard truck.
“The point is, we have someone willing to put their hand in
their pocket to put the sewerage under the Western Freeway.
You can’t keep allowing people to live on top of each other,
they don’t want that. Kids in Ballan grow up pretty good;
kids around here grow up on land. We are stopping the
motor bikes, stopping the horses – if we take this to 2021, or
2023 – people will buy somewhere else,” he said.

Cr Tatchell said people come here and want to live rural and
be sustainable on 5-acres or more.

The report, released to the public on Friday 21 June, detailed
on our doorstep.
VEAC’s recommendations for a new Wombat-Lerderderg
Wombat Forestcare
National Park, which would combine the current Wombat
convenor Gayle Osborne State Forest and the Lerderderg State Park into a new
national park.
VEAC recommended a new 49,553ha area in a bid to protect
water catchments, headwaters, and high value habitats for
rare and threatened species.
Other recommendations for Moorabool Shire include two
new regional parks in Spargo Creek and Blackwood.
Firewood collection would continue in proposed regional
parks at designated areas, but a ten-year phase-out will be
in place.
The recommendation has seen popular lobby groups in the
area continue to butt-heads on whether a national park is the
best option for the area.
Environmental lobby group Wombat Forestcare shared their
excitement from the recommendations, noting the positive
outcome for threatened and protected species in the area.
Convenor Gayle Osborne said the group is “exceptionally
pleased with the VEAC recommendations,” and that the
“protection of the [species] habitat is critical for their survival
in the Wombat Forest.”
The recommendation follows a recent ABC Four Corners
report that investigated Australia’s rapidly increasing rate of
mammal extinctions, which is now the highest in the world.
“In the Wombat Forest, we consider that the combination
of parks provides a balance between nature conservation,
recreation and the access to firewood,” said Ms Osborne.
“We should be proud to have a National Park, to have all
these wonderful creatures on our doorstep…we should also
be proud that the Wombat-Lerderderg area is “amongst the
most important for Victoria’s biodiversity.”
Although Wombat Forestcare welcomed the
recommendations, another popular group has shared their
deep concern and disappointment with the report.

Heartbreak loss for Cobras
Bacchus Marsh has suffered
an agonising five-point loss
to Redan from a goal after
the siren at Maddingley Park
last Saturday. The Cobras
looked as though they were
going to hang on before Lions
skipper Liam Hoy marked
uncontested 35-metres out
from goal, directly in front,
with just nine seconds left on
the clock.
Cobras coach Peter Davey
by Todd Whelan and his boys were visibly
distraught in the rooms
immediately after the game before some positive clarity and
words of encouragement could be drawn. The result leaves
Bacchus Marsh vulnerable in seventh place on the league
table, needing to win near all of their remaining five games
to feature in September.
“I’ve never seen the boys so gutted,” Davey said.
“Every supporter knew how much this game meant to them.
“Before time-on in the first (term) we were already down
two rotations which you rarely come back from,” he said.
“We almost got there on spirit and courage as opposed to
skill, we tried our guts out.
“A win would have put us in a very strong position going
into the last five games but now it looks as though we can’t
slip up at all if we want to play finals.”
The Cobras back six were under the pump for the most part
of the afternoon, the disparity of inside 50s was palpable (39-
65). While Redan’s radar in front of goal was ‘off’, it was often
the defensive pressure from the Cobras that denied the Lions
a more accurate score line.
“We were smashed with the inside 50 count, and our other
KPIs indicated that we shouldn’t have been in the game, but
our backs kept us in it,” Davey said.
“Our defensive group has been our best and most consistent
line all year.”
The Cobras midfield were always going to be up against it
with the return of key Lions ruckman Orron Stephenson
after a five-week absence with a groin complaint. The
Stephenson/(Lachie) George combination was back together,
a combination that has gone a long way to Redan’s revival in

Sport
season 2019. George’s influence was a handful for Davey as
he and his support staff struggled to find an ideal match-up.
“George is a star,” he said.
“We ran a two-man tag on him but he’s that good he still
found the footy and used it so well.
“Our young boys will learn a lot from their experience,”
According to Davey, veteran Tyson Shea was the Cobras best
midfielder.
Cobras live wire Billy Griffiths threatened repeatedly
forward of centre but couldn’t hit the scoreboard given
the ‘high’ nature of his possession. Griffiths exposed
Redan’s defence for leg speed and was the reference
point for discussion of Lions coach Jarret Giampaolo. But
unfortunately, the Cobras were unable to capitilise on their
advantage. For all of Griffiths, Declan Phyland and Matthew
Chisari’s efforts to break the game open, the Cobras return
on the scoreboard of nine goals just wasn’t enough.
Jake Owen presented as an aerial target all day. His three-
goal contribution in a 16-goal game gave the Cobras a sniff
but it was the Lions shear weight of possession and forward
50 entries that proved the difference. There’s no doubting
the ‘after the siren’ nature of the loss will be difficult for the
Cobras fans to digest but they need to ‘park it’ and focus on
the must win encounter with Ballarat (10th) at Alfredton
Oval this Saturday.
Coach Davey has already adopted the positive approach
moving forward.
“(If we) bring the same spirit that we brought against Redan
our season will remain alive,” he said.
Bacchus Marsh will be crossing their fingers this week on
the availability of Jacob Chisari (concussion) and Jack Parente
(corky). The club is already without 2019 season recruits Tom
Brownbridge and Jake DeWinter.
