Ice addict makes life hell


By DAVID COHEN

Residents of City Beachs


prestigious Tarongo Way say
they are being terrorised by
a methamphetamine addict
neighbour.
Two people have obtained
violence restraining orders
against the 38-year-old man and
fear for their families safety.
Police have been called to
Tarongo Way 45 times in the past
six months to deal with the addict.
Many of the calls were between midnight and 4am.
One neighbour said police had
warned them to have a panic
room ready.
My son says schools should

run excursions to put children


off using drugs, one street
resident said.
The addict has been filmed eating his own faeces in the street,
been caught with drugs, lit a fire
on his porch, been seen with a

Molotov cocktail, screamed obscenities, allegedly made threats


to kill, jumped fences, and vandalised his own house and garden.
He was screaming all day,
one resident said.
Then he pounded at our door

screaming die, die while wearing boxing gloves and grey jocks.
My husband ran upstairs and
got a baseball bat.
Another resident said the
addicts neighbours rarely got
unbroken sleep.

Serendipity in night arrest


Police arrested former WA
Legislative Council deputy clerk
Nigel Rodney Lake near Tarongo
Way, City Beach, while they were
patrolling to check on the streets
drug addict.
Mr Lake (49), of North
Fremantle, was sacked from his
$166,000-a-year job after a vote of

Parliament on Wednesday.
The vote to ask the Governor
to withdraw Mr Lakes commission came after the Legislative
Councils Procedure and Privileges
Committee said it had lost confidence in Mr Lake regardless of the
outcome of his court case.
The governor signed off on Mr

Lakes dismissal that night.


Mr Lake has pleaded not guilty
to carrying a baseball bat with
intent to cause fear, possessing
a disguise and unlawfully using
a tracking device after allegedly
being near the Tarongo Way home
of his boss, Legislative Council
clerk Nigel Pratt.

People visited all through the


night, often on noisy motorbikes.
We are on the brink: we dont
know if or when hes going to
erupt, she said.
The police have advised us
to have in place an escape and
exit plan should our house be attacked again, a neighbour said.
That is, make sure we have a
safe and secure room to hide in
until the police arrive.
Two of her neighbours have
had security screens and CCTV
installed.
Police raided the mans home
in June and found drugs and
unlicensed ammunition (Drug
count, POST June 13).

Divers driven
round the bends

By JACOB NAZROO
WA divers are leading a national
campaign to preserve Australias
marine sanctuaries.
In 1998, the Howard government created the sanctuaries and
by 2012 Australia had the worlds
biggest network of marine parks.
But in 2013, the Abbott government announced a review of

them, with the Department of


the Environment saying in a
December 2013 report that the
park management plans would
be redeveloped.
Its most recent report, published
last Saturday, said the review was in
its final stages.
Harri Davies, Scuba Perth owner
Lee Johnson and several members
from UWAs Dive Club say the marine

parks should not be diminished or


taken away. They say marine parks
encourage healthy marine life,
building tourism and supporting
Australias dive industry.
The Australian scuba industry
alone has been estimated to be worth
as much as $4.2billion each year,
Ms Davies said.
The review is an unnecessary and

DAP bias exposed


Loopholes riddle the controversial development assessment panels (DAPs) in a
way that favours developers,
according to incensed readers
of the POST.
Bias in the DAP structure was
exposed this week by readers
who have taken issue with a
letter to last weeks POST by
Gail McGowan, director general

of the Department of Planning.


They also contradict David
Caddy, a planner and developers
advocate at DAPs, who wrote to the
POST last week defending DAPs.
Subiaco councillor Julie
Matheson described a route by
which developments that vastly
exceed town planning schemes
are being approved against community protests.

She said developers who made


ambit claims that were refused
by DAPs could then appeal
to the State Administrative
Tribunal, which could send the
project to mediation.
This happened in Alfred Cove,
where a developer applied for 87
home units on a site zoned for 24.
After an appeal to SAT, the
number of units was mediated
down from 87 to 84.
The DAP then held a public
hearing that approved the
mediated, non-complying

Short-term solution
that will cost us all

Lets not repeat Perry


Lakes debacle

Community concern is building over the


governments plan to route the Perth freight
link through valued spaces, heading to but
not reaching Fremantle Port, shifting but not
resolving the dangerous congestion in Leach
Highway, increasing rather than easing the
bottlenecks in Stirling Highway/Curtin Avenue,
and compounding rather than reversing the
decline of Fremantle as one of Perths iconic
places.
How can years of planning and bipartisan
support for a road-rail freight link to an outer
harbour at Kwinana have come to such a bad
decision?
Fremantle harbours size physically limits
its container shipping capacity.
How, then, can a solution that is effectively
short-term justify this major allocation of scarce
infrastructure funds?
Long-suffering residents along Leach
Highway deserve sustainable solutions; we
all do.
The route proposed for the freight link will
not provide this.
The government should delay its rst link
contracts planned for October while better options for both the route and method of
freight transport are revisited and shared
with the people.

From last weeks POST. Cambridge mayoral candidate Keri Shannon is


leading the charge against the councils controversial push to allow infill
in some parts of the town.

Havent they seen what DAPs


have actually been doing?
wh1.thewebconsole.com/wh/4154/
images/David-Caddy.pdf).
At the very least, in writing a
letter so closely aligned to his professional interests, he shouldhave
stated his afliations.
For the sake of similar transparency, I acknowledge that, when I
was a Vincent councillor (19952009), I was responsible for the
councils adopting the practice of
being represented in appeals to
the SAT (and its predecessor, the
Town Planning Appeals Tribunal)
by (a) an elected member, (b) an
independent town planner and (c) a
member of the affected community.
In this way, we had a 75% success
rate in defending appeals.
Of course, this was before the
DAPs notwithstanding the
claims of Ms McGowan and Mr
Caddy changed the rules and
said, through their decisions, that
it was OK to ignore town planning
schemes and planning policies.
Ian Ker
Vincent Street, Mt Lawley

David Caddy says DAPs, SAT


must stick to local and state planning policies (Letters, POST,
August 8).
He echoes the words of Gail
McGowan, director-general of the
Planning Department, who said in
another letter in the same issue
that development assessment
panel (DAP) decisions must be in
accordance with local government
planning schemes, state planning
policies and sound planning principles.
Clearly, neither has paid much
attention to what the DAPs have
actually been doing, as described
in Dodgy DAP system slammed
(POST, August 1), which cites
numerous examples of decisions
inconsistent with town planning
schemes.
But at least we can see that Ms
McGowan is simply saying what
her Minister insists that she say
in support of the governments
pro-developer agenda.
Mr Caddy has been a professional town planner for over 35
years and states in his professional
resum that he has been successfully representing developers in town planning appeals for
nearly three decades (https://
s3-ap-southeast-2.amazonaws.com/

Mr Caddy stressed in a preface to his


letter last week that he was writing
as a private citizen, and his views did
not reflect those of UWA, or TPG Town
Planning, Urban Design and Heritage, of
which he is a director. Editor

Keri Shannon, spokesperson for the Save


Our City Beach Our Floreat fear-spreading
Facebook campaign against Cambridge councils Amendment 31, has announced a ticket
for the Cambridge elections (Shannon goes
for Withers chain, POST, August 8).
In my view, this ticket means only one thing:
gaining control of Cambridge council with the
aim of overturning a previous council decision
which will certainly be unsuccessful.
We have experienced this sort of nonsense
before with the Perry Lakes debacle 10 years
ago, when the Coast ward members in control
made a mess of things.
The result was a dysfunctional council.
The state government stepped in, legislated
and took control of the lucrative project.
History repeats itself only if people ignore
history.

Secrets on our doorstep locked in SAS


By LINDA CALLAGHAN
Top secrets from the US and
Britain are stored at the SAS
Campbell Barracks, it has been
revealed during a parliamentary inquiry.
The SAS regiments commanding officer, identified only by
his rank and initial, Lt Colonel
B, was explaining to Senators
why the barracks needed to be
improved with a $223million
redevelopment.

Among the array of top


brass, Lt Col B, was the only
one wearing a day suit for the
Senate public works committee
hearing at Rendezvous hotel in
Scarborough.
There are probably three key
factors post- September 11 that
have impacted on the regiment
and its facilities, he said.
We have seen an incredible
increase in the number of operational deployments of the unit
and changes in the nature of the

tasks they have been required


to do, he said.
Increasingly we are required
to operate with our Five Eyes,
US, UK, Canada and New
Zealand.
This brings with it demands
for the ability to hold and deal
with sensitive and top secret
information that is pertinent
to all those countries.
He said there was added strain
on ageing facilities.
Brigadier Noel Beutel,

director-general of Defences
facilities, said Campbell
Barracks would be there at
least 30 years.
To replicate those training
facilities as well as provide facilities we are proposing under
this redevelopment, instead of
looking at $223 million we would
probably be looking at a minimum of half a billion dollars,
assuming that we could find and
purchase the appropriate land,
Brigadier Beutel said.

Jack Sues kids want


their memories back
By BRET CHRISTIAN

Children of WA war hero


Jack Sue are trying to recover
some of his possessions after
his collection was auctioned in
Claremont last week.
They want to contact buyers at
the auction who are willing to sell
back the special items.
Dad has seven kids, and six of
us were most definitely against
the sale of his memorabilia, said
one of his sons, Kam Sue.
It has immense sentimental
value to many of his children.
We only found out about the
auction when one of the brothers got a call from his ex-army
colleague.
I was watching the auction
online from Hong Kong while
my younger brother Kim, older
brother Graeme and sister Aneeta
were there bidding on items we
were trying to keep in the family.
They managed to buy four items,
including Jack Sues Smatchet
commando knife for $5250, but
soon reached their budget of
$10.000.
The items went for much more
than the catalogue prices, Kam
said.

Sport fans on Subi council


Subiaco councillor Mark Burns spent $3116 on
tickets to football at Subiaco Oval in June.

Auctioneer Peter McKenzie with the Samurai swords before the auction. One was withdrawn by son and executor Barry Sue because of a
claim over ownership, while another sold for $6250.

Council records show Mr Burns bought tickets


through the council, the lessor of the ground.
Councillor Paul Clements paid $420 for footy tickets
in April and another $1120 in June, while Councillor
Scott Arbuckle bought two tickets for $140.
The WA Football Commission has a 99-year lease
with Subiaco council for the oval.

Lost antenna plans disputed


By LINDA CALLAGHAN
Claims Nedlands council
lost plans for mobile phone
antennas are at the heart of a
year-long wait for a resident.
Information Commissioner
Sven Bluemmel said he concluded the documents had
been lost or did not exist.
Bronwyn Stuckeys home
is level with the rooftop of a
Broadway building where the
equipment was installed.
When it was to be extended
last year, she asked the council
for more information.
They must have had copies
of the plans in order to deal
with it, she said.
At first the council said some
of the documents were exempt
from Freedom of Information

laws because they had a commercial value, according to the


results of an appeal.
When Dr Stuckey appealed
to Information Commissioner
Sven Bluemmel, the council
backed down and withdrew
that exemption.
It refused to release other
documents that it said were
covered by legal professional
privilege.
Dr Stuckey said the council must have plans for the
antenna.
Originally there were only
two shrouds and two antennas
in them.
At the moment there are
four shrouds but I do not know
how many antennas are in
them, she said.
If the extension amounted
to 25% of the equipment the

council could have refused


permission for it, she said.
When the antenna was installed, residents forced the
council to consider it as a
planning application because
it was in a residential area.
It also led to a council policy
forbidding towers and antennas near primary schools.
Mr Bluemmel said in his
decision: After the additional
searches had been completed,
all documents are either in the
councils possession but cannot be found, or do not exist.
Dr Stuckey said though it
had taken a year for the commissioner to rule, she would
not give up.
I have other avenues. The
council is not acting in the
interests of its constituents,
she said.

North to Alaska
... on trail bike

By LINDA CALLAGHAN

Motorbiking Nedlands couple


Stewart Newsome and Sandra
Saunders are in Alaska on
the last leg of a journey they
started 25 years ago.
As newlyweds in 1989, they
set off from Yorkshire on a
round-the-world holiday, but
were waylaid in Australia by
work and starting a family.
In May this year, now both
retired and their two daughters
grown up, they dusted off their
BMW trail bike to set off again
and finish the trip.
Weve done some pretty
spectacular driving so far, from
the deserts of Arizona, the Blue
Ridge Mountains of Virginia,
Washington DC, Niagara Falls
and the Great Lakes of Ontario,
through the Prairies and on to
the Alaska highway, through
British Columbia and into the
wild Yukon, said Sandra, a former University of WA lecturer
known as Sam to her friends.
Each was stunning and
memorable.
Since leaving Perth and picking up the bike at Los Angeles
airport, we have driven over
12,000 kilometres.
Turning off the Alaska highway on to the Klondike Highway
to take us into Alaska has been
the best driving so far.
It is breathtakingly awesome
mountains, glaciers, raging
rivers and waterfalls.
As we approached the border
summit, we were quite surprised
to see two fully laden bicycles
also heading our way.
Wed seen so few vehicles
on this quite remote section of
road. Timing was incredible

how could you imagine meeting


someone at this junction, under
the border placard announcing
Welcome to Alaska just where
we would like to have a photo
together.
The couple were French and
we chatted a while about their
bicycle adventure, and very
obligingly they took the photo for
us, with the POST Newspaper.
The trail bike Stewart and Sam
set off on had been stored in the
garage at their Nedlands home.
Stewart, who used to own
a motorbike shop in the UK,
rebuilt the engine before they
set off on part two of their trip.
With an air cushion at the
front and bags on either side it
was like an armchair, Sam said.
We will be back, we are just
not sure when, she said.
Stewart said he and Sam had
met in Batley, near Leeds, when
Sam was at university.
When she finished her doctorate, she did a lot of contract
work and at the end of each
contract we would head off for
Greece or Turkey for a couple of
weeks or months, Stewart said.
We were always saying we
would like to ride around the
world on a motorbike, then one
day we just decided to do it.
Carrying a tent for camping,
or staying in cheap hotels, they
headed for eastern Europe,
but by the time they got to
the Middle East, politics had
kicked in.
Salman Rushdie had published Satanic Verses and they
would not let us into Syria,
Stewart said, though they made
it into Jordan and Iraq.
After Alaska they will be head
south to Mexico.

City Beach school now independent


City Beach Primary is now
officially an independent state
school.
Education Minister Peter
Collier was at a function on
Monday night last week to
launch the new status.
Principal Grant Ward said it
meant the school would have
more control over hiring staff
and how its money was spent.
Being an independent public school gives us far more

autonomy than we have had in


the past, Mr Ward said.
We now have the ability to
appoint teachers who fit and
match the schools philosophy
and values.
School board chairperson and
parent Claire Williams said the
new status was a long-term commitment for parents to be more
involved and for the children of
families who followed in future
years.
Mr Ward said parents were

already very involved.


We have so many of our
parents helping out with all
facets of the school, including
before and after-school sport
programs, canteen duty, assisting in classroom activities,
being on the school board and
a very proactive P&C association, he said.
It is a really fantastic school
community here and our new
status will only serve to enhance
that.

Perth Mod exam


proves testing
By LLOYD GORMAN
Perth Modern School did not
have to reveal what questions
a student had been asked in an
August 2012 chemistry exam,
the Supreme Court ruled last
Friday.
The father of the student
identified only as H in court
papers failed to convince
the court that a decision by
Information Commissioner Sven
Bluemmel into the matter was
unreasonable.
In his judgment, Justice John
Chaney supported a finding
by the commissioner from
November 2014, and the original
decision by the Department of
Education.
In November 2012 Mr H applied for access to the test paper
and was told a month later that
he could get his childs answers
to the test questions, but not the
questions themselves.
He immediately asked the
department to carry out an internal review of that decision,
which it upheld a few days later,
on Christmas Eve.
In February 2013 he appealed
to the commissioner, who 21
months later (November 2014),
agreed with the Education
Department and ruled the
questions were exempt under
a clause of the Freedom of
Information Act.
In his appeal to the commissioner, Mr H said he had been
given all the test and exam
papers between Years 8 and
10 from all departments at the
school, except the science department.
The Department of Education
disputed this claim, saying that
only some questions had been

released by the schools maths


department.
In his appeal to the commissioner, Mr H contended: If the
science department released
test papers regularly, science
teachers might coordinate their
lessons and test questions better. The quality of education
cannot be maintained by withholding test papers.
If tests are not disclosed,
they will be biased and unfair
because some tutors and siblings
of other students have access to
test questions which are recycled by the school.
Given the amount of science
test questions available in the
public domain, it is not difficult
for the school to rewrite tests.
Mr H argued that disclosing
tests would improve productive feedback from parents and
improve the quality of tests at
the school.
Initially, the science department may experience difficulty
in rewriting each test, but the
quality of the questions will
improve through continual
feedback and the situation will
get better over time, he said.
Justice Chaney said the man
had raised six grounds supporting his claim for access to the
information, and why it should
be available.
It is not necessary for me
to deal with those matters because this appeal is only open
on questions of law, Justice
Chaney said.
None of the grounds of appeal
are made out, and the application should be dismissed.
Perth Modern was contacted
for comment.

Barnett unlinks from freight talk


Colin Barnett wont take part in what he
says will be a political debate about the Perth

by Cottesloes Residents and Ratepayers

It was understood that the invitation to Mr

and a local audience and as such he was prepared to attend, Mr Barnetts office wrote to

Think again,
says Nedlands
A rethink is needed on the proposed law to
create a new city of Perth council, Nedlands
councillors have decided.
They listed flaws in the legislation and plan
to ask the government to withdraw it.
One of the main objections is to changing the
boundaries with Nedlands and Subiaco to put
the University of WA and QEII in the new city.
Nedlands mayor Max Hipkins said Nedlands
supported the idea of a capital city Act, just
not the one proposed.
There has been no cost-benefit analysis or
explanation for why it is required, he said.
Many questions remain unanswered. The
proposed Bill does not achieve the objective
and should be discontinued.
The council is against changes to controls
of Kings Park.
There was no reason for giving control to the
director of public health, they said.
Moving the boundary to the middle of the
river could have cost implications for councils.
Setting up a committee to give the ministers
for planning, transport and local government
power over the new council would constrain it.

Hannah has keys to Carnegie Hall Wearne

meeting

By DAVID COHEN
Hannah Wang started learning the third movement of
Mozarts Piano Concerto No.23
in A major this week.
I will have learnt it by next
week, the six-year-old pianist
and Methodist Ladies College
student said.
Hannah has had a lot of success in piano competitions in
the past 12 months.
In June, she won overall best
junior performer at the WA
Pianists Competition after
claiming two first prizes and
two second prizes.
The wins led to an invitation
to perform at Carnegie Hall in
New York in May next year, in
the Golden Key Music Festival.
Hannah said music was easy
to remember.
You need to practise, she
said.
On school days, I practise for
1 hours and on weekends for
two hours.
My favourite composer is
Mozart. I like the sound and he
is fun to play.
Hannah also plays the violin,
but said it was harder than the
piano.
Youve got to find where the
note goes with your finger, she
said.
For fun, Hannah likes playing soccer with her brother
Jeremiah.
I listen to a bit of Disney. I
like Mickey Mouse and The Lion
King, she said.
I also like the Smurfs.
Hannahs mother, Christina,
said her daughter was two when
she first asked to have piano
lessons.
The teacher said she had to
be four, Christina said.
But she watched her brother

The four-council steering


committee discussing the
future of Wearne Hostel has
held its first meeting.
Control of the hostel is
vested in Cottesloe, Claremont,
Peppermint Grove and Mosman
Park councils.
The four councils formed a committee to discuss the future of the
hostel, which Curtin Care wants to
secure tenure of so it can finance
a major aged-care upgrade.
Mosman Park mayor Ron
Norris told Tuesday nights
corporate and technical services
committee that the first meeting
had taken place.
He did not say what happened
at the meeting.

Bid to save
banksias

Thriving banksia trees on a


former hospital site in Shenton
Park should be saved from the
bulldozer as a park, Nedlands
councillors said.

Keys to success Hannah Wang is booked to play at New Yorks Carnegie Hall. Photo: Billie Fairclough
Ethans lessons a lot and one day
she played one of the pieces he
was learning. She was three.
After she turned five, Hannah
came under the tutelage of Yoon
Sen Lee, who has been teaching
music for more than 30 years.
Hannah is an extraordinary
talent, Yoon Sen said.
She has the God-given talent
of perfect pitch, but she is also a
fast learner, reading and memo-

rising her music really quickly,


plus the bonus of an extremely
cheerful character.
She has such a wonderful and
humorous personality and is
such a lovely and obedient girl.
The most important thing is
that she is willing to work hard,
resulting in her capability to
perform so well at concerts and
competitions.

Infill faces heritage challenge


By LINDA CALLAGHAN
Heritage Minister Albert
Jacob is being asked to stop
changes to Cambridge councils town planning scheme.
Lawyers acting for residents

who opposed an amendment


that would allow duplex, triplex
and apartment developments in
City Beach, Floreat and part of
Mt Claremont claim the council
breached the Heritage Act by
not referring the proposed new
rule to the Heritage Council.

Subiaco mayor Heather Henderson inspects the

Bugs welcome

A 16-level Subiaco hotel that opened this
week has hundreds of rooms and should be
teeming with bugs before long.

Council CEO Jason Buckley


said the town had taken legal
advice and did not need to refer
Amendment 31 to the Heritage
Council.
Craig Wallace, a partner
with Lavan Legal, also wrote
to Planning Minister John
Day, Attorney-General Michael
Mischin and senior public servants.
The letter follows questions
raised at the July Cambridge
council meeting by Jenny
Marshner.
Ms Marshner was a co-opted
member of the WA Heritage
Council.
She told councillors the spotlight should have been turned on
the architecture of City Beach
during the drafting of plans to
allow infill development.
And the council might have
missed a step in the legal procedure, said Ms Marshner, who
lives in Churchlands and is
building a house in City Beach.
The fact the council was
proposing to change its town
planning scheme should have
been referred to the Heritage
Council.

The insect hotel at Mabel Talbot Park in


Jolimont is made from recycled timber pruned
by council staff and metal salvaged from bulk
rubbish collections.
It doubles as a piece of sculpture.
UWA architecture, landscape and visual
arts student Tim Delany, who won a council
scholarship to make it, explained his design
and the concept to Jolimont Primary School
students, many of whom have planted native
species in the area.
Its designed to meet the needs of the insects, he said.
We wanted to concentrate on native pollinators, bees and wasps.
Holes were drilled into the wooden structure
to appeal to different species of bees and wasps
that like to burrow and lay eggs.
This is also expected to attract other wildlife,
including the rainbow bee-eater, a bird that
migrates to the reserve from as far away as
the Northern Territory and Papa New Guinea.
Subiaco mayor Heather Henderson said the
project was one of several schemes supporting and protecting wildlife and their habitat.
We are not aware of any other council in
WA to create an insect hotel, she said.

Claremont gets fruity


Claremont council has signed up for fruit
deliveries for its workers.
Eastern states firm Fruit at Work got $484 in
May for providing bananas, kiwifruit, apples,
mandarins and oranges.
Staff not at council HQ in Stirling Highway
spent another $112 on fruit from Jacks in
Claremont Quarter during the month.
In July last year, Claremont spent $259 on
fruit for workers.
On the firms website, founder Wendy
Visontay said she used to supply thousands
of offices in Sydney with chips, chocolates,
biscuits and soft drinks.
But in 2002 she sold the snack food business
to concentrate on fruit.

Amendment 31
needs scrutiny

Third parties should be able to


appeal against developments

My confidence in Cambridge
councillors is waning by the day.
The Cardno traffic report
underpinned the modified
Amendment 31 and now it seems
that the Transcore review of that
Cardno traffic report has shown
fundamental errors.
I hope the WA Planning
Commission will discount the
weight given to the Cardno report in light of the Transcore
review.
The WAPC needs to scrutinise
Amendment 31 and if it is found
to be flawed, then it should
reject it.
Je Dawkins
Warreen Place, City Beach

David Caddy (Letters, POST,


August 8) stops short of the real
issue in saying decision makers
have to comply with the law.
The trouble is, someone has
to make them comply.
The potential legal costs of
complaining about an unlawful
development decision to the
Supreme Court are prohibitive,
for most.
Furthermore, you can comply
with the law but still breach
planning policies, which are
about merits, rather than legality.
The only person who can
appeal against the merits of a
development decision to the
SAT is the proponent of the
development who is refused, or
who objects to one or more of
the conditions on an approval.
Third parties such as an affected neighbour have no right
of appeal to the SAT.
Democracy can be served only
by giving a right of appeal to
people affected by a development decision, whoever makes it.
Furthermore, third party appeal rights are the only way of
making a legal nexus between
planning policies and development decisions.
Few people understand the
significance of the absence of
third-party appeal rights, until
confronted with an unmeritorious development decision, which
impacts on them or their locality.
When they complain in the
media (all they have got), the
developer and politicians/councillors resort to NIMBY name
calling, when there is no rational
argument to support departure
from the planning policies that
ought to have influenced the
development decision.

Mundaring reader Karena Holden sent in this photo of Subiaco councils parklet, in Hay Street. When she first saw it, on her way to the
bank, a man was sitting in it, eating an orange and enjoying a spot
of people-watching. But on my return, I saw a big mess, she said.
There was rubbish and orange peel all over the fake lawn. Karena
said while the parklet idea was lovely, it was common sense that every
park, no matter how tiny, really needed a bin.

Let me tell planning students about DAPs


David Caddy and Gail
McGowan (Letters, POST, August
8) defend development assessment panels (DAPs) but omit
confronting what is causing
disquiet among us revolting
peasants.
Does Mr Caddy tell UWA
students that DAP members
exercise subjective and discretionary powers (designed
for and previously exercised
by councillors) such that even
objectively measured scheme
requirements are disregarded?
Or that state planning policies are used to justify ignoring
schemes, in contradiction of the
planning hierarchy?
Does he tell them DAPS are
unaccountable for approvals
because, even if council or a
neighbour considers the scheme
has not been honoured, no merit
appeal is available?
Ms McGowan mentioned the
State Administrative Tribunal
could allow interventions when

a developer appealed (unlike


peasants, they can appeal).
But the SAT rarely does allow
intervention, and quickly pushes
matters into confidential mediation, resulting in interested
parties being locked out.
Even with appeal rights, DAPs
should be scrapped.
A degree does not qualify
anyone to decide the subjective elements of an application
against a communitys planning
scheme and policies; only an
election does.

I would be happy to speak


to UWA students to balance
their education by explaining
our states planning system
from the point of view of the 16
property owners in Catherine
Street, Subiaco, who have experienced first hand the DAP,
the SAT and the exercise of
ministerial power to avoid our
communitys expectations and
planning scheme.

Good council is working well


Ive attended Cambridge
council meetings and have seen
the way Keri Shannon and her
supporters behave.
I have been disgusted by
this groups personal attacks
on mayor Simon Withers,
councillors and staff, and Ive
been gobsmacked by their
scaremongering.

Heaven help us if they get


control of Cambridge.
Weve got a good council making good decisions for the whole
community, and I strongly urge
Wembley and West Leederville
residents and ratepayers to
make sure this group is not
elected.

Jukes Way, Wembley

With third-party appeal rights,


workloads for government planners would be significantly
lower, and sustainable development that accords with our
carefully-thought-out planning
policies would promote a better
environment for us all.
WALGA has rejected the idea
of third-party appeal rights in
the past.
Councils complain about DAP
decisions because, as third parties, they cannot appeal.
But councils will not have
third-party appeal rights against
council development decisions.
It is the rooster coming home

Let bikes on
to footpaths
Re Roundabouts unsafe
for cyclists (Letters, POST,
August 8).
It is becoming quite tiresome
to read the lamentations of bike
riders and the hazards that they
face on the road.
A possible, inexpensive and
safer solution would be to widen
all footpaths in each council
area by one slab and allow them
to be shared by cyclists and the
few pedestrians who use them.
If everybody then observes
the road rules, and cyclists and
pedestrians look both ways before crossing roads, car drivers
wont be endlessly blamed for
merely following the road rules
and bike riders will avoid collisions at roundabouts.

Cotts airtight
home a WA first
By RHIANNON SHINE
Cottesloes sea breeze wont
worry the owner of WAs first
airtight house.
The Passivhaus, in Webb
Street, is due to be completed by
Christmas and has already broken
international records.
Passivhaus, or passive house,
was developed in Germany in the
early 1990s and is now the fastest growing energy performance
standard in the world.
A Passivhaus building works
around three main principles: a
high level of airtightness, excellent thermal performance and
mechanical ventilation.
Passivhaus certification will
guarantee the home uses just
10% of the energy of a typical
Australian home.
The Webb Street home, owned by
an eye-surgeon with four teenage
daughters, will have six bedrooms,
four bathrooms, a library, a sixlevel lift and a roof terrace.
The owners twin brother is
head of the Canadian Passivhaus
Institute and recommended the
contemporary design to him.
Nedlands-based Consortium
Builders has brought the house
from ground level to lock-up in
six weeks and it is now being fitted with plumbing and electrics.
Builder and environmental
engineer Andrew Abercromby
said a combination of high insulation, a heat recovery system and
a near-airtight house achieved
year-round comfort.
We had to conduct a blower
test at lock-up by pressurising the
house and measuring the rate of
air leakage, Mr Abercromby said.

He said the typical Australian


house leaked about 15 volumes
of air per hour, while European
standards required less than 1.5
volumes and the Passivhaus target
was 0.6.
The Cottesloe Passivhaus was
recently tested by an independent
international specialist and set
an Australian and New Zealand
record of 0.25.
This is 50 times more airtight
than most Australian homes, Mr
Abercromby said.
And we were surprised by
the enthusiasm from experts
in Germany, Canada and New
Zealand.
He said Passivhaus was the way
of the future.
While Passivhaus is not for everyone, interest is growing rapidly
for the ultra-comfort, low-energy,
rapid-construction and easymaintenance benefits, he said.
To date, Passivhaus buildings
have been designed and built in
every European country, Australia,
China, Japan, Canada the US and
South America.
The home will require a final
blower test by a Passivhaus
Institute certifier to achieve full
certification.

Taste of Korea
A Korean festival is scheduled
for UWA next Wednesday.
There will be K-pop dance performances, traditional dance and
music, Korean costumes to try on,
and Korean food to eat.
The free festival, on Oak Lawn,
is from 10.30am to 4.30pm.

Now Open
At 7am

Workers lower an insulated panel on to the roof of the Passivhaus in Cottesloe. INSET: The building team
celebrates achieving an airtight house.

Mosman hears from


both sides of fence

By DAVID HUDLESTON

Mosman Park councillors


were split over a proposal to
remove a temporary fence
around a bush block between
Fairbairn Street homes and
the river.
Corporate and technical services committee acting chair
Jenna Ledgerwood used her
casting vote on Tuesday night
to ram through a recommendation to remove just one side of
the fence in front of the homes.
Other councillors also
wanted the fence on river side
of the bush block ripped up
while leaving the other two
sides to keep out dogs and
children on bikes.
The temporary fence was
erected in 2009 to protect the
block while new plants grew.
A staff report to the committee said the ring-lock fence
was in poor condition.
Neighbours say the yellowcapped steel picket fence is
an eyesore, looks like a big
chicken pen and want it gone.
But in an email to the
council, Friends of Mosman

Councillors have recommended the western fence (left) remain while


the fence along Fairbairn Street (right) be removed.
Park Bushland convener Sue
Conlon said she wanted it to
stay because the bush was
home to rainbow bee-eaters,
that migrated there each
year from the Kimberley, the
Burtons legless lizard and a
species of ctenotus lizard.
The birds built their ground
tunnel nests inside the fence,
which kept out dogs, she said.
North ward councillor Zenda
Johnson argued that both
sides of the fence should be
removed because that was
what residents had been told.

This was put in six years


ago as a temporary fence with
a sign for all the world to see
that said when the plants had
grown it would be removed,
she said.
She said the staff report
said both fences could go but
recommended only one fence
should go.
CEO Kevin Poynton said
doing it incrementally would
allow the bush to be monitored
and would keep the opposing
parties happy.

Subi rushes a new image


By LLOYD GORMAN

Subiaco council is rushing


to develop a new image for its
CBD as an enjoyable place to
shop, visit and relax.

Compounding makes us a specialist


pharmacy, but what makes us special?

Open 7 Days 7am - 8pm


445 Cambridge Street, Floreat WA 6014
Phone: 08 9387 1803
Email: info@emsliespharmacy.com.au
www.emsliespharmacy.com.au

The council is asking consultants to develop a brand


identity made up of a name,
logo and hashtag for the
Subiaco city centre, which it
defines as Rokeby Road, Hay
Street and Station Square.
Firms bidding for the contract will be asked to come up
with three concept designs.
Recently the city has undertaken significant market
research into various aspects
of the town centre, the tender
document states.
A recurring theme from this
research is that the Subiaco
town centre lacks a strong
identity and a new strategic
marketing vision needs to be
developed.
There is a need for a new
brand narrative that defines
and promotes consistent values, a unique selling point, and
a competitive position for the
Subiaco town centre.
An overall negative perception of the economic position
of the retail and hospitality

industries in Subiaco has developed, and businesses are


looking for immediate changes
to be undertaken to improve
the look, feel and reputation
of the town centre.
Subiaco said it wanted
branding that was simple,
versatile and timeless, memorable and easily recognised
by Subiaco residents, workers
and visitors.
The city centre was a wellknown retail, hospitality
and entertainment precinct,
Subiaco said, but the number
of visitors was decreasing.
A key priority for the city of
Subiaco is collaboration with
the local business community
to increase foot traffic and enhance the visitor experience
in Subiaco, the council said.
Tenders closed on Tuesday,
August 11, and a contractor
will be picked within a week.
The selected firm will then
present three creative concepts at a series of workshops
with councillors, staff and
other interested parties on
August 24, and immediately
begin to polish the ideas.
It is likely the new business
lobby, Subiaco Town Centre
Network, will have a say in the

choice of a new brand.


In late September or early
October the contractor will
again make up to three presentations of a new brand identity.
Subiaco CEO Ian Hill said
the timeframe was deliberately tight.
Thats the intention, to
move quite quickly and because of Markets on Rokeby
the timing is right for us to
move in parallel with that,
Mr Hill said.
We are looking at an
October opening for that,
and this work will coincide
with that.
The timing with Markets on
Rokeby is just about perfect.
People have long recognised
Subiaco as being the home
of some of the metropolitan
areas top markets and thats
been a big attraction.
With the change with the
Pavilion Markets and Station
Street Markets, the commencement of Markets on Rokeby,
the timing, is just right.
Hedley Missell, a director of
Venn Property Group, which
is behind the new markets,
confirmed they would open
in mid to late October.

Professor praises $1billion boost for research


The director of WAs top adult
medical research institute
in Nedlands has praised the
establishment of the Medical
Research Future Fund.
The legislation passed
through federal parliament on
Wednesday.
Professor Peter Leedman, from
the Harry Perkins Institute of
Medical Research, said the fund
would deliver more than $1billion to medical research within
the next 10 years, a doubling of
federal investment.

This is a transformational and


landmark event in the history of
medical research in Australia,
he said.
It is essential that we have
adequate support for our dedicated researchers to take their
work well beyond just the next
grant cycle.
It is accepted internationally
that a major foundation for an excellent, high-quality health- care
system is a robust and sustainable medical research industry.
Vibrant health and medical
research cultures within hos-

pitals and primary care lead to


great medicine, with the best
outcomes.
With the establishment of
the Medical Research Future
Fund, we have an extraordinary
opportunity to foster this across
the entire sector.
Professor Leedman said it
was a very stimulating time for
medical research as new technologies, such as genomics, were
revolutionising how researchers
made discoveries and advanced
these findings at a more rapid
rate than before.

The next few years will be an


exciting time for Australian science as we, including the Perkins,
embrace the technology and
apply it to more rapidly develop
new ways to better diagnose and
treat human disease, he said.
We will work towards introducing precision medicine.
Professor Leedman said survival rates for many cancers
had improved as a direct consequence of medical research for
example, the cervical cancer
vaccine and advances in the
treatment of breast cancer and

melanoma.
But for some cancers, such as
liver, pancreatic and some types
of breast cancer, the prognosis
remained poor, and it was these
tumours that the Perkins was
very interested in.
We hope that the MRFF will
also help Australian researchers
make major advances in cardiovascular disease and diabetes,
including heart attacks, stroke
and blood vessel diseases, which
remain the main cause of death
in Australia for both men and
women, he said.

Try your
you hand in top labs
Next Saturday the Harry
Perkins Institute of Medical
Research will open its doors
to the public for the first time
to celebrate National Science
Week.

Science in action Adults and older children can experience hands-on science in the Harry Perkins Institute
labs next Saturday.

This is a rare opportunity for


everybody in the community to
experience our scientists work
tackling cancers, heart attack,
stroke, diabetes and other serious diseases, institute director
Professor Peter Leedman said.
We really want to engage
people so they understand
more about medical research,
and the open day will allow the
community to get hands-on in
our labs and meet the scientists
who are driving our discoveries
and delivering hope to patients
and their families.
Visitors can listen to talks
about the latest research
in the buildings McCusker
Auditorium. The presentations
will run every 40 minutes from
10.10am until 3pm.
A series of guided tours by
medical researchers will take
visitors through exhibitions.
These offer a visual history

of medical research, from the


discovery of penicillin to a
chronicle of Australian Nobel
Prize laureates.
Four-metre double-sided LED
banners will display colourful
microscopic cell images with an
accompanying interactive iPad
app describing the research
involved in creating the image.
Researchers will also take
visitors through the state ofthe-art laboratories to increase
understanding of the institutes
intricate work on conditions like
cancer, diabetes, cardiovascular
and neuromuscular diseases.
Hands-on laboratory activities
will be held in the Lotterywest
BioDiscovery Centre, providing
a chance to wear a lab coat and
stain a cancer cell.
The event is free and suitable for adults and older children. Flat-covered footwear is
recommended for entry to the
laboratories. The cafe will be
open for business.
Paid parking is available at
carpark 3A, 7 and 7B, off Monash

Time for DAPs to come


The Metro West Development Assessment Panel
(DAP) has met 103 times since DAPs were set up in
2011, often attracting criticism from the community.
Is it time for a review of the planning system?
POST reporter LLOYD GORMAN has attended most
DAP meetings in the western suburbs. He writes:
When Planning Minister
John Day introduced DAPs
on July 1, 2011, he said they
would streamline the planning process, make the system
more flexible and be more
transparent.
From day one, DAPs at least
in the western suburbs have had
a rocky and tricky track record.
The very day they began, a
local developer lodged plans
for a $45million six-storey office
block with parking for 187 cars
in Seddon Street, Subiaco.
It took three attempts for that
application to get to a DAP meeting because of site problems.
The developer withdrew it
later that year.
This was more than just teething problems for the new planning system.
Three years later, the same
developer returned to the DAP
with plans for an eight-storey
$60million office block on the
same site.
Despite strong opposition
from Subiaco council and the
community, the DAP approved
this application in April 2014.
Then the developer asked for a
further two-year extension of the
projects building approval (they
expire after two years), saying
they needed to coordinate this
project with another massive

one proposed for the block next


door: Subigates $120million
16-storey redevelopment of the
old Pavilion market site.
The DAP had approved this
tower in February that year,
again despite stiff council and
community opposition.
Even DAP member Malcolm
Mackay, wearing his other hat
as a planning representative of
the Seddon Street developer,
called Subigates approval by
the DAP the worst planning
decision in the history of WA .
It had taken Subigate a
consortium led by Sydney developer Ian Day several years of
pushing to get the $120million
redevelopment plan through to
approval.
Even when the DAP had
signed off on the plans, Subigate
went straight to the State
Administrative Tribunal to
appeal against most of the 39
conditions of approval the DAP
had imposed.
The extent of that appeal
became public knowledge only
this week at a Subiaco council
meeting, and neighbouring
residents who feared their
heritage homes were at risk of
being damaged are still very
worried.
Elsewhere in Subiaco, another
developer is trying to on-sell
(flip, in market parlance)

Reverend George Davies took a megaphone to Northwood Street to get


the message over to would-be buyers that neighbours were vehemently
opposed to the multi-storey development they said would spoil the enjoyment of their homes.

the DAP, which, in March 2014,


initially knocked back the design, by Jolimont architect Ian
Oldfield, because of its height.
The 306sq.m site is now for
sale with planning approval for
a five-storey mixed-use building.
But the buyer will have to
demolish the existing purplepainted brick building and get
building works significantly
under way before March next
year, when its approval expires.
These are a small selection of
DAP applications in Subiaco,
but there are many more in the
area and beyond it, and more in
the pipeline.
In many cases, DAP applications generate heat and friction
with neighbours and the community, a phenomenon that is
spreading across the metropolitan area as DAPs approve highrise buildings in single-storey
or low-density areas that local
councils cannot approve, and
probably would not have done.
DAPs are coming under increasing scrutiny.
A parliamentary inquiry into
the system is under way and has
called before it a broad range of
people, from affected residents
to developers groups, former
and current DAP chairmen and
planning officers.
But it can only assess the
effectiveness and workings of
the DAPs and report back to
the government later this year.
It does not have the power
to abolish them, as speakers
including Nedlands mayor
Max Hipkins, UWA professor
and a former DAP chairman
Nial Kiely, Local Government
Planners Association president
Ian MacCrae, WALGA have
suggested.

under the spotlight


This has also been the suggestion of every resident who
has addressed the inquiry.
Even with its limited powrers, the inquiry, headed by
rKate Doust MLC, should call
before it Planning Minister
John Day to hear his account
of the DAPs.
t Members of the inquiry
should attend at least one DAP
tmeeting to see how it operates.
And the State Administrative
fTribunal should also be called
to answer questions.
Developers appeals to the
SAT have resulted in secret
approvals, the inquiry has
heard from several speakers.
The SATs one-page, foursentence submission to the
inquiry saying it does everything according to normal
procedure clearly does not
ycut the mustard as far as any
kind of accountability goes.
The SAT is an arm of the
Supreme Court, and justice
needs to be seen to be done
and the letter and spirit of the
law followed.
On the face of it, even develfopers should react badly to the
DAPs they add another layer
rof bureaucracy to the planning
system, cost more money and
take longer to get decisions.
And in 95% of cases, DAPs
fsupport recommendations
made to them in Responsible
Authority Reports, which are
rdrawn up by council staff on
behalf of DAPs.
r But for all that, big builders
rare gushing about the new system and would hardly change
ta thing, the parliamentary
tinquiry has been told.
The five-person DAPs comprise five members: three
with planning or similar
expertise who are appointed
by the Planning Minister as
independent experts, and two
councillors from the area in
which a project is planned.
Local communities are
always on the back foot, with
DAP councillor members
almost always over-ruled by
the experts, who are always
in the majority.
Even having two councillors
on the DAP is no guarantee
that local interests will be
defended.
While councils nominate
councillors for the DAP, they
are not representatives of their
councils, and are not bound
by previous council decisions
about a development.
They can vote as they wish.
Subiaco councillor Murray
Rowe, for example, voted for
the Subigate redevelopment
of the Pavilion Market in
February, while his fellow
councillor Paul Clements voted
against it.
Some people in the community, and on Subiaco council,
felt betrayed by Mr Rowes
endorsement of the unpopu-

The community

back foot, with
councillors almost

Davies campaigned (opposite).
lar plan, and it was arguably
because of this that his fellow
councillors did not nominate
him again when his term on
the DAP expired.
DAPs were meant to remove
political influence from planning and bring a more professional approach, but even that
can be seriously challenged.
DAP members can say as
much or as little as they like
in support, or against, an application, leaving room for a
horse and carriage to be driven
between different opinions
and reasons for a decision.
Last December, a POST
reporter found himself sitting
among a big group of developers, planners and consultants waiting to present their
projects to Subiaco councils
design review panel, which
was meeting the backers of

the Pavilion Market site.


The reporter listened as the
developers opened up and
talked freely.
This was when it looked
almost certain that Subiaco
council would be taken over by
Cambridge, and the developers were not slow to criticise
Subiaco council and say small
councils like it should be done
away with so they could get on
with what they did.
In private, they showed no
respect for existing planning
controls and systems run by
councils, and, by extension, no
respect for the communities
they serve.
They even jokingly linked
senior state government ministers to local redevelopment
projects.
Planning Minister John Day
is actively driving reforms to
WAs planning systems, mainly
in favour of property developers, and the DAPs are one way
in which he is doing that.
The DAPs are directly answerable to only one authority: him.
But dont expect the Labor
Party to offer much contrast.
The Opposition likes DAPs and
would be unlikely to do much
to change them if in power.
Instead of a parliamentary inquiry into DAPs, there
should perhaps be a royal
commission into WAs planning system.
DAPs would be scrutinised,
and so, too, should councils
and, more particularly, the
Metropolitan Redevelopment
Authority and bodies like the
Statutory Planning Committee
inside the WA Planning
Commission, all of which make
important decisions in secret
meetings.

development, that has since


become a lightning-rod for
community protests.
The most recent controversy
was sparked by Cottesloe
councillor and DAP member
Jack Walsh, who slammed the
DAP system at a public rally in
South Perth last month (POST
August 1).
He told the meeting there
was no requirement for a DAP
to either adhere to or show
regard for either state or local
planning policies.
Both Ms McGowan and Mr
Caddy said in letters to the

POST that this was wrong.


My students, past and present, would be aghast at this
statement, Mr Caddy wrote
to the POST.
But Mr Walsh hit back this
week, saying he was quoting
directly from the training notes
to DAP panel members.
Town planning lawyer Sandra
Boulter pointed out in her
letter that a developer could
appeal to the SAT against a
refusal, but a neighbour badly
affected by overshadowing or
other detriment could not.

Expert says Wedges


OK not DAPs to give
By LLOYD GORMAN
A development assessment
panel (DAP) was not the
right authority to have approved the four-storey office
block next to King Edward
Memorial Hospital for Women,
in Subiaco.
This was what Shenton Park
planning expert Neil Foley told
a recent hearing of the parliamentary inquiry into DAPs.
Mr Foley said that because of
the zoning of the site, on the corner of Bagot and Railway roads,
it had been inappropriate for a
DAP to OK the $18.5million office
Planning expert Neil Foley said the Wedge sites zoning meant the DAP building, dubbed the Wedge.
had no authority to approve the building.

Mr Foley said the land had


been reserved as use for public
purpose hospital in the 1963
Metropolitan Region Scheme.
The WA Planning Commission
has 100% development control
over reserved land, but that
had not been the case in this
instance.
For the DAPs to be making
decisions on reserved land is
inappropriate, he said.
Mr Foley is also a professor of
urban and regional planning at
UWA and has been chairman of
two DAPs.
It should have gone through
a scheme amendment first, he
said.
Local people missed out on

the opportunity to comment on


what sort of uses should go on
that land, because the council
opposed that, but it was still
approved.
In 2011, West Perth developers
Blackburne applied to the newly
established DAP for approval to
knock over five one-storey homes
and a shop on the site and build
a four-storey building with more
than 5000sq.m of office space and
two levels of parking.
It was the first commercial
office building for Blackburne,
which develops apartment
complexs.

Brothers illness a catalyst for study


By RHIANNON SHINE
When Cyndi Shannon
Weickerts twin brother was
diagnosed with schizophrenia
when he was 17, it was the first
time she had heard the word.
She grew up in the US alongside him, shared teachers and
friends, played baseball and
went on holidays.
She said they had both been
intelligent children, but once
the teenage years hit, something
changed.
I remember that while I
was socialising and partying,
my brother was starting to
withdraw, Professor Shannon
Weickert said.
We were both very academic
over-achievers and competed

for the top grades in school, but


then I noticed his grades were
slipping.
He got worse. He withdrew
more into his room.
He would listen to Beatles
records and play them backwards and think they had special
messages for him.
When a psychiatrist diagnosed schizophrenia, Professor
Shannon Weickert decided: I
gotta learn this biology stuff,
because I gotta find out whats
wrong with his brain.
I knew I wanted to help my
brother, because the medicines
that were available to him at the
time were terrible.
Now a world-leading neurologist, Professor Shannon Weickert
moved to Australia from the US

eight years ago when she was invited to lead a top schizophrenia
program in Sydney.
Last week, she gave a public lecture at Christ Church
Grammar School, in Claremont,
about her latest research and
her personal experience with
schizophrenia.
My aim is to discover biological subsets of schizophrenia so that we can target novel
therapeutics by re-purposing
available drugs that are already
known to be safe for other diseases, she said.
My aim is to apply what we
know, or what we have learnt
so far, and just test if its going
to be of benefit.
She said a range of people
attended her lectures, from

those personally affected by


schizophrenia to those who
were simply interested in the
human brain.
There is a lot of intrigue in
the human brain, she said.
If you think about it, it may be
one of the most complex organs
on the planet.
Professor Shannon Weickerts
lecture was organised by mental
health awareness group Meeting
for Minds.
Details about the groups
events can be found at meetingforminds.com.

RIGHT: Professor Shannon


Weickert made it her life mission
to uncover the root cause of
schizophrenia.

Five easy steps for developers

DAPs: the state governments


flawed planning mechanism
Gail McGowan (DAPs strike
balance between expertise and
local knowledge, Letters, POST,
August 8) parrots the governments planning propaganda.
She says all development assessment panel DAP decisions
must be in accordance with
local government planning
schemes, state planning policies
and sound planning principles.
Wrong: every decision ever
made by DAPs has over-ruled
local government planning
schemes.
As Cottesloe resident Jack
Walsh said in the POST report,
DAPs are not required to either
adhere to or show regard for
either local or state planning
policies.
Ms McGowan says the DAP
system ensures challenging and
complex planning decisions are
determined in an independent
manner.
Wrong: there is no independence.
DAPs are the WA Liberal
governments rubber stamp for
non-compliant developments.
She says the community
does not have a right to apply
for merit reviews against DAP
decisions, but can apply for a
judicial review to the Supreme
Court of WA.
Double standards: developers
have the right of appeal all the
way to the SAT, but councils
and communities do not.
Residents who adjoin a development can go to the Supreme
Court, but this will incur considerable costs.
DAPs are designed to be
biased, with two local government representatives never able
to defeat the three Ministerappointed independent ex-

perts who, incidentally, never


speak out against the hand that
feeds them (ie, developers and
the state government).
In short, DAPs are the governments flawed planning
mechanism that ensure developers bypass councils and deny
residents a voice in how their
communities develop.
I recently attended an international planning conference
where every speaker advocated
citizen/local government partnerships to ensure best planning
outcomes, something the state
government dismisses.
Once again, the state government is out of step with global
best practice.

DAP rules allow planning


policies to be ignored
In reply to my comments in
the report, Dodgy DAP system slammed (POST, August
1), David Caddy told us of his
UWA credentials but he didnt
mention if he was executive
chairman of statutory planning
at The Planning Group (TPG),
who has represented developers applications at development
assessment panels (DAPs) on at
least 10 occasions in 10 different
jurisdictions.
I believe that since their inception, the DAPS have approved
100% of development applications, some after appeal, which
may explain Mr Caddys interest
in defending them.
It also shows why there is a
large wave of disquiet building,
as evidenced by a recent metropolitan community meeting
addressed by leaders from 10

local government areas worried


about DAP decisions.
While it would be difficult to
rack up as many DAP appearances as Mr Caddy, I have attended six DAP meetings and am
well aware of the proceedings.
Mr Caddy says his students
would be aghast at my quoted
statement: There is no requirement for a DAP to either adhere
to or show regard for either local
or state planning policies.
I point out it is a direct quote
from Development Assessment
Panel Training Notes, section
4.5.2, Role of Policy.
Mr Caddy should be assured
that my agenda as an elected
council member is to be open
and accountable at all times
and to tell it like it is.

David Caddy (DAPS, SAT


must stick to local and state
planning policies, Letters,
POST, August 8), I would appreciate your providing evidence
of development applications
that support your statement:
When a DAP considers an application, or the SAT reviews
an application, it is standing in
the shoes of the council and can
only exercise those discretions
that would be available to the
council.
There are at least 15 DAPaffected communities in metropolitan Perth who say the
rules are ignored in favour of
developers in five easy steps.
1. Put in an ambit claim (to
build 87 units on a site zoned

for 24 units in Alfred Cove).


2. Get a refusal from the council and the DAP.
3. Go to the State Administrative Tribunal (SAT).
4. Mediate an outcome in
secret (build 84 units instead
of 87 units).
5. The DAP holds a public
meeting and approves the noncomplying development.
However, there is agreement
with your statement that: Local
governments must have due
regard to the provisions of state
planning policies when making
decisions on planning matters.
I look forward to your reply.

Is ethnicity relevant?
Your lead report in the August
8 edition (Strong Rayney leads)
refers to two suspects in the
Rayney case, who are said to be
associated with a group, some of
whom are highlighted as being
indigenous.
I read the rest of the paper
trying to find examples where
the POST had explicitly linked
anybody at all to a group of
caucasians.
But, of course, there arent any.
It is only when somebody is
indigenous, or knows someone
indigenous, that you choose to go
out of your way to identify their
race as if it were a relevant or
defining characteristic in rela-

tion to criminal acts.


I doubt your reporter, Bret
Christian, is unaware of the unconscious bias that perpetuates
generalised racist attitudes to
indigenous Australians, but if he
is, then I can only say ignorance
is no excuse.
The POST needs to raise its
game.
Peter Metcalfe
The reporting rule is that ethnicity is
reported only when it is vital, relevant
and unavoidable, such as the description of a suspect or a missing person.
Such was the case in this report, as was
clear from the paragraph immediately
following. Bret Christian

Interest rate is extortion


My bridge club friend Bessie
asks: How can councils charge
more than 11% interest if we
choose to pay our rates in instalments?
Her pottery pal, Cynthia, lives
in Swan council, where you can
win a car if you pay your rates
in full.

We know councils want to get


our money ASAP, but does acting like Sale of the Century, and
charging extortionate interest,
really help?

AUGUST IS PET DENTAL


MONTH AT THE

FLOREAT VETERINARY CENTRE


If your dog or cat has bad breath it might be time for an oral examination. Bad breath in our pets
ets
ase
is one of the most common signs of oral disease and is not normal. Other signs of dental disease
ng
is buildup of tartar on the tooth surface, a change in the appearance of the gums, pets preferring
on
to eat softer foods, be less playful with chew toys and decline crunchy treats. Increased salivation
and pawing at or rubbing the face can be indications of oral pain.
Just like people our pets need to have an oral examination, scale and polish and regular dental
home care to keep their teeth and gums in top shape.
This can benefit our pets in many ways as general dental
hygiene can reflect how our pets are feeling
on the inside.

UWA gets fast food


Fast-food outlets Subway
and Boost will open outlets
at UWAs Crawley campus in
spring.
Construction is under way in
the refectory, popularly known
as the ref by staff and students.
The outlets will operate independently and stay open when
the ref is closed.
UWA Student Guild president
Lizzy OShea said the changes
were the result of a catering
review by the guild, which runs
most of the college eateries.
This review identified that

the model that would have the


greatest benefit to students and
the wider community would be
guild-run cafes alongside guildmanaged independent catering
options, Ms OShea said.
She said they were considering dedicated halal outlets, had
upgraded the historic Hackett
Cafe, tested new menus and
even offered 24-hour breakfast
and dinner options during the
recent exam period.
Ms OShea said all revenue
supported student services and
facilities on campus.

Plenty in store for golfers


Mosman Park Golf Club last
week opened its $100,000 cart
storage shed.
It was partly funded through a
$25,000 contribution from Mosman
Park council, a donation from the
Australian Sports Foundation,
and about 40 club members.
The new building replaces
the old shed, near the clubs
entrance, which had become an

eyesore because of its dilapidated condition.


The new shed will store members golf equipment and the
clubs small fleet of golf carts.
General manager Tony Howell
said the increased availability
of golf carts would significantly
benefit many of the clubs older
members, enabling them to stay
active longer.

More than a year of planning,


teamwork and elbow grease
has culminated in the opening
of the SolarisCare Community
Garden at Sir Charles Gairdner
Hospital.
More than 50 guests were
at the recent opening of the
rejuvenated space by Alyssa
Hayden, parliamentary secretary
to Health Minister Kim Hames.
Everyone involved should
be extremely proud of the gift
they have given through this
community garden to cancer
patients, families and carers
for many years to come, Ms
Hayden said.
The garden is designed to
give those going through cancer
treatment a place to sit and re-

than $250,000 for SolarisCare.
Masters Home Improvement

with materials and labour while

Nobel Laureate talks


about cellular ageing
Australian-born Nobel
Laureate Elizabeth Blackburn
gave a lecture at UWA last
week on how stress, poverty,
diet, lifestyle and genes made
the bodys cells age rapidly.
Professor Blackburn, who
won the 2009 Nobel Prize for
Physiology or Medicine, was delivering the Lions Eye Institutes
16th annual Ian Constable
Lecture.
She discovered the molecular nature of telomeres, which
are protective DNA-protein
complexes that help stabilise
the bodys genetic information.
Telomeres which can be
compared to the plastic tips
on shoelaces prevent chromosomes from falling apart.
But telomeres shorten every
time a cell divides, and if they
become too short, the cell can
no longer divide leading to
cellular ageing and disease.
Telomere length can be combined with other information to
indicate a persons biological
age better than chronological
age, Professor Blackburn said.
Smoking and obesity have
both been implicated in the
shortening of telomere length
and there is a growing body of
evidence that the stress of living under deprived conditions

can cause telomere shortening


and the early onset of disease.
In her lecture, Implications
of Telomere Maintenance in
Ageing-Related Processes and
Diseases, Professor Blackburn
explored how people could
protect telomere health.
There are ways to protect
telomeres through diet, exercise
and weight and stress reduction, she said.
She is also fascinated with
the physical and mental effects
of stress and the roles stressreduction techniques play in
potentially improving telomeres,
and the health implications
for this.
Research by Professor
Blackburn and her team at the
University of California, San
Francisco, has linked short
telomeres to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, chronic stress and
post-traumatic stress disorder.
Lions Eye Institute managing
director Professor David Mackey
said it was an honour to have
Professor Blackburn presenting this years Ian Constable
Lecture.
It is wonderful to have such
a successful Australian researcher as a role model for our
scientists delivering this years
lecture, he said.

Girls lose hair for cancer patients


More than 50 students at
Iona Presentation College had
20cm cut off of their ponytails
on Wednesday to be made
into wigs for people who have
lost their hair during cancer
treatments.
In front of the school assembly, Year 12 student leaders,

Arabella Bargmann, of City


Beach, and Taylah Howard, of
Scarborough, had their hair cut,
to be donated to the Pantene
Beautiful Lengths campaign.
After the assembly, 54 students followed suit and had
their hair cut.
Arabella said their hope was

to make people feel good again


and this was one way they could
make that contribution.
Students who did not have
haircuts raised money in other
ways, such as hair braiding and
via a cake stall.
This money raised will go to
support the WA Cancer Council.

Love of learning begins at home


Parents, take heart. Thats the message from
Janice McGuire of NumberWorksnWords
Subiaco. According to Janice, there are many
ways parents can make learning enjoyable for
their children, without resorting to bribery or
force.
Start by building a positive family culture
toward learning, says Janice. Show interest
in school, take family visits to museums and, if
youre watching television together, use news,
current events and documentaries to stimulate
conversation.

is a major predictor of success in school. So
Janice recommends that children read daily.
Designating a family reading time 20-30
minutes a day with no TV shows that the whole

The ip side of reading is writing. Email is fun
because it generates responses, but a journal
is a good alternative. Rather than a diary of
Today I did this, encourage children to write
their responses to the events in their lives: I love
visiting Grandma because her kitchen always
smells of warm cookies.
Maths can also be fun, and surprisingly easy
to practise every day. Board games and card
games are obvious ways to engage children in
mathematical thinking. But so are many everyday
activities: counting items, adding up costs and
working out change when youre shopping;
time-keeping in the car or on the bus; measuring

and fractions when youre baking.


Along with creating a great home environment
for learning, these activities indicate how your

Set ocean pool at groynes foot


With regard to a Cottesloe
beach pool, I suggest a return
to the old pool area as a site
for a low-impact and manageable option.
It could be situated at the foot
of the groyne, roughly where the
old pool was, with access to the
groyne re-routed to form a low
sea wall to the north-west.
This would create an area of
about 40m by 12m from the old
pool shower to overlooking the
southern reef shelf and Mudurup
Rocks.
It would need to be about 2m
lower than the foot of the groyne
to allow ebb and flow of seawater
from the south.
There could be a wide amphi-

theatre of steps for access from


the north.
It could be designed in keeping with the harsh coastline,
say inspired by the hull of a
wrecked boat filled with water,
lodged between Cottesloe beach,
Mudurup Rocks and the groyne.
There could be a deck rail
walkway around its perimeter,
the bow pointing to the surfers past Mudurup Rocks, with
anchor holes and portholes
allowing wave and tidal flow.
Brass fittings, scalloped edges
and steps could add to the overall sculpture.
Martin Visser
Samson Street, White Gum Valley

Martin Vissers idea for a Cottesloe ocean pool. His location at the base of
the groyne is coloured red, with the path to the groyne diverted around
it slightly to the west. The outline of a pool to the north of the groyne is
the location now being put forward.

Todays planning system has lost the certainty


In their defence of development assessment panels (DAPs),
both Gail McGowan and David
Caddy (Letters, POST, August 8)
conveniently forget that it is possible to give a wide interpretation to discretionary provisions
in local planning schemes and
the residential design codes
when DAPs assume the role
of local government decisionmaker.
The state government requires
that the following clause of the
Model Scheme Text has to be
incorporated in all local planning schemes:
Except for development in
respect of which the residential planning codes apply, if a
development is the subject of
an application for planning approval and does not comply with
a standard or requirement prescribed under the scheme, the
local government may, despite
the non-compliance, approve
the application unconditionally

or subject to such conditions as


the local government thinks fit.
The residential design codes
are not included in the above
exception because they already
contain the option for wide variations when assessment under
design principles is requested.
This requires the exercise
of judgment (discretion) by the
DAP decision-maker, guided
only by general performance
standards.
Yes, all decision-making bodies are required to give due consideration to approved policies
and design principles, but they
are merely guidelines and it is
easy to justify exceptions.
History shows DAPs make
extensive use of discretion far
more than councils would ever
contemplate.
Local government is constrained by accountability to
its community, which doesnt
apply to DAPs.
This encourages developers

to make ambit claims, knowing the State Administrative


Tribunal will seek to mediate
a compromise.
There is no longer any certainty in the planning system.
That is why more people in

debate regarding bush the

The lovely cockatoos that live
in the bush visit our family home.
They come past only a few
times a year and hang from
native trees on our front lawn.
Our daughters (11 and 14) marvel at their beauty and antics.
They have a unique persona.
It is for this and many other
reasons that I request UWA does

I speak proudly of my time and

My daughter took me to the

I am a fifth generation Western
Australian and proud of my
university and heritage.
Please consider the intellectual and creative option of
protecting this land.
It looks like a short-term financial decision the university
appears to be making.
I always felt UWA was a creative, intellectual institution that
existed for the benefit of unique
ideas and the protection of our
precious wildlife.
All that you are considering
is being watched by so many
and, as someone who loves my

look to giving back.
Please make this an attractive
option.
One thats resonates with the
spirit that makes UWA great.

Hollywood first for robotic oral surgery


Ear, nose and throat surgeon
Desmond Wee has broken
new ground in using a robot
for oral surgery at Hollywood
Private Hospital.

Breakthrough Ear, nose and throat surgeon Desmond Wee checks patient
Peter Symonds after his tonsil cancer surgery.

He recently met 56-year-old


Peter Symonds, who had been
diagnosed with tonsil cancer
and fearful of a terminal prognosis.
But after his first visit to
Hollywood, Mr Symonds was
told he was a candidate for less
invasive robotic surgery.
After being diagnosed with
tonsil cancer and hearing my
options for treatment, I was
completely overwhelmed,
he said.
Reading up on cases where
patients had to have their jaw

broken to be able to reach the


cancer was quite scary.
On meeting Mr Wee and
learning I was a candidate for
the surgery with the da Vinci
Xi, I was thrilled.
The complex surgery was
performed in less than three
hours, with Mr Wee first completing the neck dissection then
reconfiguring the da Vinci Xi
to remove the tonsil cancer.
During this procedure, we
were able to successfully address all affected areas, Mr
Wee said.
The da Vinci Xi marks a
significant advance in the
types of services we can offer
to patients who are suffering
from oral cancers.
Mr Symonds did not require

further surgery or chemotherapy.


He still required radiotherapy, but this had been tailored
to reduce toxicity and lessen
his recovery time, Mr Wee said.
This procedure marks the latest advance in robotic-assisted
surgery.
Hollywood was the first hospitalin Australia to use the da
Vinci Xi for trans-oral robotic
surgery and remains the only
hospital in WA to offer the
service.
The da Vinci Xi is the most
advanced surgical robot in
Australia. More capable than
prior generations of the da
Vinci surgical system, it can
be used in a wide range of
minimally invasive surgery.

Students hear of egyptologists life changing discovery


By DAVID COHEN
An accidental discovery led
to a once-in-a-lifetime experience for egyptologist Susanne
Bickel.
Three years ago, Professor
Bickel was working with a team
from the University of Basel,
in Switzerland, when they discovered a 3000-year-old tomb
in Egypts Valley of the Kings.
It was quite sensational and
totally unexpected, she told
students at Methodist Ladies
College.
There was one lady in the coffin: she was a priestess or singer.
The name on the coffin was
Nehmes-Bastet, which means
May the Goddess Bastet protect her.
She was probably in her early
20s, which was about the normal
age for those times.

It was a once-in-a-lifetime
experience.
Professor Bickel enthralled
students with her stories of
clambering into hillside tunnels
to find tombs.
She has been exploring the
Valleys non-royal tombs for seven
years through Basel University.
The non-royal tombs are not
beautiful, she said.
It is probably the reason why
they have been neglected.
The tomb was only the second
found in the Valley of the Kings
since Howard Carter found
Tutenkhamens, in 1922.
Students asked Professor
Bickel about the supposed curse
put on Carter and his team.
That is mainly modern mythology and the film industry,
she said.
Professor Bickel studied Latin
and Greek at school and said she
loved history and ancient history.

I spent half a year with my


parents in London,she said.
My English lessons were next
to the British Museum, and I
became passionate about Egypt.
It is civilisation in a nutshell:
it is 3000 years, but it is so coherent and close.
Professor Bickel said there
were few career opportunities
in egyptology.
My teacher told me, Go
ahead, do it, think of your career
later, she said.
We try to make clear studying a subject in human sciences
gives you many skills, including
writing and dealing with complex situations.
MLC ancient history teacher
Jodie Ford organised Professor
Bickels visit.
Were building a strong ancient history department at MLC
due in part to some wonderful Pyramid selling Angel Thomas with egyptologist Susanne Bickel.

Get set for


Rotto race

Angies
project
will help
old school

Free running classes start


next Wednesday at Tom Perrott
Reserve in Mosman Park to
prepare entrants for Octobers
Race Around Rottnest.

Angie Boladeras moved to


Presbyterian Ladies College
from Beehive Montessori this
year but didnt forget her old
school when embarking on
her personal project.
As part of the International
Baccalaureates middle years
program, all Year 10 students
must undertake self-directed
projects of their own choice.
Angie remembered her
friends with disabilities at
Beehive and decided to create
a learning tool for them.
Back at my old school there
are two disabled boys I have
known for a long time and I
was talking to their carer about
what they enjoy that is also
educational and I was told that
there was not really anything,
Angie said.
I wanted to create something
they could do in school but also
practise skills like writing and
counting.
With the support of her mentor, an occupational therapist,
Angie thought about what sort
of activities would interest her
target audience and came up
with a learning tool set up like a
toddlers activity cube but with
elements suited to school-age
children.
On one side there is a clock
face with moving hands, on
another there is a whiteboard.
Another is magnetic, the
fourth has an abacus and there
is a bead maze on top.

Time for something new Angie Boladeras with her learning tool for people with disabilities.
With help from the PLC woodworking teacher, she made the
timber cube and then attached
the different elements to it.
She spent time most weekends this year working on her
creation.
It can be for kids of any age
with disabilities because they

can get different things out of


it, Angie said.
The Beehive kids have tried
it but not as a complete activity, so I am really excited about
showing them.
Angie planned to donate her
project to Beehive Montessori.
The Peppermint Grove

schools Personal Project


Exhibition was the culmination
of months of hard work, starting
at the end of Year 9 until term
3 of Year 10.
Students had to come up with
their own topic, research it, produce their project, and write a
report reflecting on the process.

The race, on Saturday, October


17, involves four challenging
legs: a run, cycle, swim and
an optional paddle on a ski or
stand-up paddle board.
Participants can compete
individually or in teams. This
year there is also the option of
an Olympic distance triathlon.
Alison Davis, CEO of race
beneficiary Autism West, said
the race would raise awareness
and funds to provide families
with the practical and emotional
support and tools they needed to
help their children reach their
full potential and integrate into
the community.
The money raised will assist
us in helping the many families
affected by autism in the WA
community, Ms Davis said.
Autism West will be entering
a number of teams and is working closely with Fifth Element
Fitness to ensure they are fully
prepared.
Fifth Element Fitness will
provide free running classes
on Wednesdays at 6.15pm and
Saturdays at 8am from Tom
Perrott Reserve, starting next
Wednesday.
A gold coin donation is encouraged for each session and all
funds raised go to Autism West.

Pensioners to cough up extra $2.5m in rates


By DAVID COHEN
Local pensioners are set
to pay $2.5million more in
council rates in the 2016-17
financial year.
The state government will
cap the pensioner rate rebate
at $550, instead of the 50%
discount.
Claremont CEO Stephen
Goode said about 625 people
with an average rate bill of $2011
would be affected by the cap.
With the new capping they
will only be able to claim $550,
which will mean they will be
paying an additional $450 themselves, Mr Goode said.
The Claremont ratepayers
will be out of pocket by $281,250.
A Nedlands spokeswoman
said the amount would be

$908,866, based on 2015 assessments.


In Mosman Park, the estimated amount would be $108,000,
based on 240 properties.
Peppermint Grove ratepayers
would have to find $27,742, according to CEO John Merrick.
A Subiaco spokeswoman said
812 ratepayers claimed the 50%
rebate in 2014-15, which was
worth $590,982.
The spokeswoman said about
500 pensioners would be affected next financial year.
Cambridge CEO Jason Buckley
said 1349 properties were eligible for the cap in 2014-15.
Of the 1349 properties, 1066
will be affected by the $550 cap
being introduced by the state
government, he said.
The 1066 properties will
exceed the $550 cap by a total

The amount for the seven


western suburbs councils will
be $2,504,621.
Seniors Minister Tony
Simpson said WAs seniors
were expected to increase from
458,000 now to 865,000 in 20 years.
He said state government
expenditure on concessions for
seniors was not sustainable in
its present form.
The eligible age for WA
Seniors Card holders will be
increased from 60 to 65 by
2023-24.
From last week, 61 became
the age to qualify.
Other Budget decisions
included means-testing of the
energy assistance payment
(cost-of-living allowance), which
provides a rebate on electricity
charges from July 1, and a cap
of $600 to be applied to the 50%

rebate available to pensioners


for their water service charge
from 2016-17.
Other decisions included
extending free public transport
for WA Seniors Card holders,
pensioners and carers to include
free travel after 7pm every night
and before 6am each weekday
morning.

Kiss costs $1.5m


A kiss-and-ride school dropoff zone costing $1.5million is
proposed for North Cottesloe
Primary School.
The run-in, opposite the
school in Railway Street, will
be built by state Main Roads
Department.
Cottesloe council was told
last month that local ratepayers
would not contribute.

Hearing begins...right here!


HAGN#087/281

FREE SCREENING
Monday 24 August to
Friday 28 August

of $450,407.
Cottesloe CEO Mat Humfrey
said the town had 379 properties
owned by eligible pensioners.
Only 54 of these received a
rebate below the capped level.
If all of these properties
opted to continue to receive
the rebate, the net reduction
in benefit (based on the current
year) would be $137,374 at an
average of $422 per property,
Mr Humfrey said.
He said the statistics should
be used cautiously.
Eligible pensioners have a
second option for their rates,
which is to defer them, he said.
A change in the level of rebate offered will likely affect the
numbers of people who choose
to defer their rates as opposed
to paying the rates when due
and receiving the rebate.

Drive-through, no-pay

Man demanded restaurant cash

The thief stopped at the


drive-through bottleshop,
grabbed the spirits from

a shelf and put them in a


white Holden Commodore
before driving off without
paying.
The alcohol had a retail
value of $207.
The crime was reported
to police at 11.35 officers
are studying CCTV.

Cold, flu
drugs stolen

Burglaries
believed linked

A big amount of medicine was stolen from


a Wembley pharmacy
after burglars broke in
through the roof.

Police think two burglaries in neighbouring


suburbs on Tuesday were
linked.

Bottles of Wild Turkey,


Jack Daniels and Chivas
Regal were stolen from
the Captain Stirling
Hotel in Nedlands on
Tuesday morning.

The crime happened between last Thursday night


and Friday morning after
the thieves cut a hole in
the roof of Pharmacy 777
in Cambridge Street.
About $900 of cold and
flu medication and cough
mixture was taken.

Toilet taken
A toilet was stolen from
a house being built in
Subiaco last weekend.
The bowl and cistern
were taken from the nearly
completed house in Barker
Road.
The theft happened between last Saturday and
Monday morning.

A silver Holden
Commodore was stolen from a home in
Leedervilles Bold Court
after the thieves got in via
the unlocked garage and
shopper doors.
The cars number plate
is 1ENX874.
Soon afterwards, a window was forced open at a
home across the freeway,
in West Leedervilles
Coldstream Street.
An iPad and watch were
stolen.
On the same day, storage
units in Cambridge Street
in West Leederville were
hit.
The thieves jumped over
a fence and smashed doors
on two of the six units
before stealing property.

Student loses his licence


A student was disqualified from driving for
seven months last Friday
after pleading guilty to
drink driving.
Evans Magireta, a
University of WA PhD
student, was caught during a random breath test
in Northbridge on June 5
at 2.25am.

Magistrate Paul Heaney


heard Mr Magiretas blood
alcohol content had been
measured as 0.102.
Mr Magireta said he was
studying for his PhD, also
worked, and that it was his
first offence.
Mr Heaney fined him
$550 and ordered him to
pay $150.80 court costs.

BEAT
with DAVID COHEN

A mentally-ill man was


ordered to pay $150 compensation for stealing
money from a Chinese
restaurant last year.
Gordon Scurr (61) had
been charged with rob-

bery later amended to


stealing and common
assault after the October
29 incident, which happened at the Warwick
Grove Shopping Centre.
Deputy Chief Magistrate
Elizabeth Woods heard
Mr Scurr had told the
restaurateur he had food
poisoning.
He appeared agitated
and aggressive, and left
the complex, a police
prosecutor said.
Shortly afterwards,
the restaurateur left the
building and was sitting
in his car when Mr Scurr
approached him again.
After verbal abuse, he
grabbed his collar, broke
his neck chain, and pushed
him from behind, the
prosecutor said.
Mr Scurr followed the
restaurateur back to his

shop, where he picked up


the EFTPOS machine and
demanded $200.
The restaurateur, fearing for his safety, gave
him $150.
Mr Scurrs lawyer said
his client had been diagnosed as a paranoid
schizophrenic in 1973, and
at the time of the crimes
had recently stopped taking his medication.
He was taken to
Graylands after being arrested, and his health later
stabilised after he was put
on new medication.
Ms Woods put Mr Scurr
on a 12-month communitybased order and ordered
him to pay the compensation and $79 court costs.
Police altered the robbery charge to stealing
when Mr Scurr appeared
in court.

Freeway speeders cop fines


Jett with grandma Jude at Cottesloe police station.

What a great job, Grandma


A 17-month-old child
was caught trying to
break into a police station armoury this week.
Jett was caught redhanded by the Cottesloe
stations community services officer (CSO), Jude.
The young offender is
Judes 10th grandchild.
His mother had taken

him to the station, in


Curtin Avenue, to see
where his grandma
worked.
She is the face behind
the phone when people
call the station, said
acting officer-in-charge
Sergeant Carol Vernon.
Jude does a great job
and we are very proud
to have her as our CSO.

A man pleaded guilty


last week to speeding on
the freeway through West
Leederville.
Last Friday, Magistrate
Paul Heaney heard that a
speed camera had recorded James Dean Maughmer
doing 91kmh in an 80kmh
section of the Mitchell
Freeway at 11.14am on
March 14.
Mr Maughmer was fined
$200 and ordered to pay
$150.80 court costs.

Fine for driving in City Beach without licence


A 20-year-old man was
fined $300 in the Perth
Magistrates Court last
Friday for driving without a licence.
Police stopped Dale
Andrew Entriken on June
17 in Windarra Drive,City

Beach.
After Magistrate
Paul Heaney heard Mr
Entrikens guilty plea, he
asked him why he didnt
have a licence.
I just havent gotten
around to getting it, Mr

Entriken said.
I just moved back from
Melbourne.
Mr Heaney disqualified
Mr Entriken from driving for three months and
ordered him to pay $169
court costs.

Another man charged


with driving at 114kmh
on the same section of
freeway was convicted
in his absence on the
same day.
A speed camera had
recorded Sedat Ozgurs
speed on September 22
last year, the court heard.
Mr Ozgur had earlier
pleaded not guilty, and a
trial was due to take place
with a police officer as a
witness.
But Magistrate Heaney
said Mr Ozgur had sent a
note saying he was unwell,
and asked for a two-week
adjournment.
Hes got to do more than
send this, Mr Heaney
said, before fining Mr
Ozgur $200 and ordering
him to pay $150.80 court
costs.

why

WAs Chief Scientist, Peter


Klinken, is hoping to build a
vigorous science culture in WA.
Professor Klinken will present
a public lecture at 6pm on August
26 in the theatre auditiorium at
UWAs University Club, explaining how crucial science is for the
future of WA.
He advocates a clear vision for
science, investment and planning.
Professor Klinken hopes to
contribute to building a vigorous
science culture in WA, and support the people who passionately
believe in science and innovation.

PhD candidate
Kalina Makowiecki
at the UWA lab.

By RHIANNON SHINE
University of WA PhD
candidate Kalina Makowiecki
hopes to add another feather
to her cap next week.
Kalina (25) has already published five full-length research
papers, organised funding, won
the UWA collaboration award
and supervised an honours student in a project she designed.
Next week she hopes to
add the ExxonMobil Student

Scientist of the Year award to


that list of achievements.
Kalina is researching repetitive transcranial magnetic
stimulation (rTSM), which is
used to treat various psychiatric
and neurological disorders, most
commonly depression.
My research is looking at the
mechanisms of how it works,
because despite using it in humans, we really have no idea
how it works, Kalina said.
We are going from bench to
bedside and then back again

with the hope that we can individually tailor treatments to


help psychiatric disorders.
In psychiatric disorders such
as depression its fairly reliable,
but not everybody responds.
Kalina said her research was
conducted mainly on mice,
which allowed her to find out
more about how rTSM worked
and what it could be used with.
My most recent research
looked at whether concurrent
activity is essential, she said.
I was looking at whether,

in mice, rTMS requires visual


input at the same time.
This will tell us whether
combining it with rehabilitation therapy after stroke or with
training might have a bigger
effect than rTMS alone.
Kalina started her PhD in 2012
and said she hoped to submit
her thesis in December.
She is a finalist in the
ExxonMobil Student Scientist
of the Year awards, which will
be announced on August 20,
during National Science Week.

Sunday in Subiaco
Tribute band Some Like It
Yacht is dedicated to re-creating

Yacht rock emerged in the 70s

record company profits.
Musicians were given more
money with less record company
interference than ever before
and the results are memorable.
Some Like It Yacht, a pack of
musical journeymen who between
them have won multiple awards,
will bring this music to sunday@
subi this Sunday, August 16.
They will be joined on stage

at the Subiaco Arts Centre by an


Auslan interpreter.
The concert starts at 2pm with
tickets available from 1.15pm on
the day and are allocated on a
first-come, first-served basis.
All attendees must be present to
collect their tickets. There will be
a short break during the concert
when patrons can buy coffee or
drinks from the bar.
The final sunday@subi free
concert is on August 23 and
will feature a double bill, Fifi
Mondello and The Sweet Teas.
The concerts are presented by
Subiaco council. For information

Uranium and clean energy


Jenny Holder has propagated a forest of quandongs from the original tree on her City Beach property.
Photo: Paul McGovern

Quandongs are making a comeback


Jenny Holder is suffering a
glut of quandong trees.
She saved the original one
from a bulldozer when she and
her husband built their house
on a big corner block in Adina
Road, City Beach.
There used to be a lot of
them up and down the coast,
but gradually they have all
been removed as building has
replaced them, Jenny said.
The quandong, also known as
the native peach, is a drought-

tolerant desert plant with nuts


in a red fruit.
Jenny says she has nurtured
seedlings for years to try to
encourage people to plant them
and use their fruit, which she
says is full of vitamin C.
Jenny has hundreds of seedlings in tubes for sale for $5 each
and she has written a brochure
with some of her own quandong
recipes.
You can use the quandong
in anything it is particularly

good in casseroles, she said.


Jenny says the quandong has
been the basis for her waterfree garden.
I do not have a hose in the
garden, said Jenny, a breast
cancer survivor who will not use
any chemicals in her garden.
The quandongs need water
for the first year and then they
look after themselves,
To arrange to see Jennys
quandong trees, or to buy seedlings, call 93885 9595.

Fresh water and this winter is breaming


Winter rains are finally
bringing water into the Swan
and Canning Rivers, and black
bream anglers worth their salt
will be getting pretty twitchy.
During summer, black bream
make their way upstream, where
they get a bit amorous in preparation for the annual breeding
season.
Fishos travel far and wide in
search of them but have to work
pretty hard to catch any.
But when we get decent rains,
the bream will travel downstream on the fresh water and
spread out into small tributaries
and swollen drains in search of a
feed anything from insects and
smaller sh to mussels, prawns

Read the POST online at

postnewspapers.com.au

FISHING

with Gary Shugg


and small rock crabs.
As they migrate, the bream
tend to gather into schools in
some easily accessible areas,
including Mosman, Nedlands,
Claremont and East Fremantle.
In my book, your rst port of
call should be your local yacht
club.
Their jetties, pylons and covered walkways are havens for
black bream (and many other
species), which hang around
for protection and a free feed of
tasty mussels from the pylons,

posts and old ropes hanging


around.
A warning ... Most yacht clubs
do not allow shing from their
jetties, especially if you are not
a member, but there are always
areas next to the clubs where
anglers can cast lines close to
pylons.
If you cannot get access to a
yacht club, there are plenty of
public jetties in the Swan and
Canning Rivers that are open to
anglers in search of a bream or
two. Mosman jetty is famous for
its black bream, as are JoJos
and Claremont jetties.
For bait, gather some plump
mussels from rocks or timber
structures and salt them down

to preserve them (they are a lot


tougher when salted).
Choose your shing spot and,
if you can, scrape some fresh
mussels from a pylon, crush
them up into a sort of crunchy
paste and drop a small amount
into the water every 10 minutes
or so to act as a berley.
After 10 to 15 minutes, start
baiting your salted mussels on
to a hook and sending it down
with the berley. You will be
surprised how effective this
method is.
If you are a lure fanatic, then
twitching a lure through this
berley will also increase your
chances of catching decent
black bream.

of Kenneth and has assembled an
extensive portrait of him, which
he will present at the next meeting of the Royal WA Historical
Society.
Kenneth Browns family
were early settlers in York and
Champion Bay, later known at
Geraldton.
The eldest child, Kenneth became a highly skilled and experienced pastoralist, an explorer,
horse breeder, horse racer and
turf club steward.
A leading settler in terms of
social and commercial standing,
his life ended in failure at the
end of a rope for the murder of
his wife, Mary-Ann Tindall.
His inglorious end has obscured
the details and historical significance of his life.
He was notable in numerous
ways as Edith Cowans father,

Jane Petley has been a familiar face to young and old at Tresillian Arts Centre
in Nedlands.

Tresillian farewells
long-time friend
Tresillian Arts Centre has more
than 1000 members and Jane
Petley knows most of their names.
It blows people away when I
have their information up on the
computer before they even say
their name, she said.
Jane, a trained teacher, started at
Tresillian as play centre supervisor
10 years ago and then found her
niche in customer service.
She left this week with many
happy memories to start her next
adventure.
Jane helped many children settle
into the play centre while their parents took part in Tresillian classes.
She also played an instrumental
part in the bi-annual Tresillian
play centre garage sale.
She was sometimes asked to
stand in at the customer service
desk.

I had no computer knowledge at


all and was mostly self-taught, with
lots of professional development
in this area later on, Jane said.
Six years ago, Jane moved permanently into the customer service
role, supporting members, tutors
and artists.
Tresillian is run by Nedlands
council and the councils community development manager, Marion
Granich, said: Over more than a
decade, Jane has nurtured creativity at the Tresillian Arts Centre.
She has been an important part
of a much-loved centre and will be
very missed.
Jane said she had got a lot out
of her years at Tresillian.
It is the friendships that I have
developed over the years with tutors, tenants, and members who
come back year after year that have
made my job rewarding, she said.

Step it out to help others


It has been found that the average Australian worker takes
fewer than 3000 steps per day,
less than a third of the daily
recommendation.
For Steptember, they are
being challenged to take 10,000
steps a day during the month of
September, while also raising
funds for people with cerebral
palsy.
Anyone can take part, get t
and raise money for people with
cerebral palsy.
Teams of four are given and wear
pedometers and log their daily

activity online.
They can walk the 10,000 steps
per day or do a range of up to 40
other activities, including a pilates
class, which will amount to 4160
steps, or a yoga class for 4060 steps.
The equivalents in steps for
activities are all outlined on
the Steptember website www.
steptember.org.au
Funds raised will go to the
Cerebral Palsy Alliance, which
is involved in disability therapy
and research.
Last year 36,000 Australians took
part, helping to raise $5million.

Dogs can give blood


Murdoch Universitys
Veterinary Hospital is looking for dog owners willing
to volunteer their pets to
become regular blood donors
and save lives.
More than 100 critically-ill
dogs every year require blood
transfusions, so a dog blood
bank is being established.
Volunteering your dog as a
blood donor will save the life
of someones beloved pet, Dr
Melissa Claus, a critical care
specialist at the vet hospital,
said.
Blood products for dogs are
hard to come by.
She said one simple donation of 450ml could help a
number of dogs.
Suitable blood donors would
need to weigh at least 25kg
and be aged between one
and eight.
Dr Claus said that well-

behaved, well-trained dogs


made the best blood donors
but the clinical team could
usually also handle happy,
hyperactive temperaments.
Aggressive and particularly
nervous dogs would be unsuitable for the blood donation
procedure, she said.
The procedure involves
putting a needle in a vein in
the neck and is similar to how
humans give blood and does
not cause pain.
If selected, dogs make donations every two to three
months.
Dr Claus said dogs had lots
of different blood types but
that these could be divided
into two main groups.
For more information about
blood donations and to organise a screening for your
dog, contact Karen Harvey
on k.harvey@murdoch.edu.au.

Youth speaks on war


This Sunday, the Friends
of Anzac Cottage in Mt
Hawthorn will honour the
contribution to the cottage
by Vietnam veterans.
Twenty-three years ago, the
cottage built to commemorate
the Gallipoli landing had
fallen into disrepair.
Vietnam veterans came to
the rescue and, in collaboration with a community-based
group, respectfully re-created
the cottages beginnings by
completely restoring and renovating it to its original state.
The Friends of Anzac
Cottage will honour the contribution made by the Vietnam

veterans at its open day on


Sunday, August 16.
Visitors are invited between
1 and 4pm to view the before
and after effects of the great
work carried out to save the
cottage.
Guest speaker for the day
will be Jet-Rik Bernal, who
will be talking about his experiences and feelings on his
recent visit to Gallipoli.
Jet-Rik, a participant in the
Premiers Anzac student tour,
will present his talk at 2.30pm.
Anzac Cottage is at 38
Kalgoorlie Street, Mt
Hawthorn, and entry is free,
with a gold coin donation for
afternoon tea.

Tyler Mathewson and Lara Ilievski won a gold and bronze medal each at a recent international meet.

International cred for young athletes


Relays are always exciting,
and winning gold in the 4 x
400m at an international athletics event was a highlight for
Tyler Mathewson (14).
Tyler and fellow Perth Modern
School student Lara Ilievski (15)
both won medals at the event.
They were part of a team of WA
secondary students selected for
the international athletics championship to compete against students from Singapore, Malaysia

and Thailand.
Tyler won a bronze medal in
the 400m and anchored the WA
team to gold in the 4 x 400m relay.
The four by 400m was a really
great race, Tyler said.
Because I had a broken finger
and couldnt receive the baton,
I was the first runner and had
to watch as the first two places
changed several times until
the last 15m, when our runner
managed to overtake and win
the gold.

Welcome Home

We were all jumping up and


down like crazy.
Lara won a gold medal in javelin and a bronze medal in discus.
She holds the WA under-15
record for javelin and she temporarily held the national Little
Athletics record for under-15
javelin.
Her goal is to be selected for
the World Youth Championships
in Russia next year, while Tyler
says he mostly takes part in athletics for fun.

Where Australia stands


on climate change
Environmental scientist
Anthony Horton will talk about
climate change at the breakfast
meeting of the Rotary Club
of Cambridge on Wednesday,
August 19.
Dr Horton will focus on carbon dioxide reduction commitments many nations have announced in the lead-up to Paris
Climate Change Conference in
November.
He says companies are realising the benets of acting on
climate change and that the
federal government needs to act
to ensure that domestic companies are not disadvantaged from

a trade standpoint.
Dr Horton has a PhD in
environmental science from
Murdoch University and has
worked in industry and for the
state government.
He is a director of the Climate
Change Guy Pty Ltd, which offers
consulting and training services
in emission monitoring, management and reduction.
The breakfast is from 7am
to 8.30pm at the Cambridge
Bowling Club in Howtree Place,
Floreat.
The cost is $20 for a light
breakfast. Call Max on 9387 4626
or email mardardy@tpg.com.au
to register interest in attending.

Youth leaders enjoy spending time with teenagers at St Matthews Youth Group. Pictured, from left, are
Rachel Lawrance, Nicholas Lawrance, Matt Tasker and Amanda Deeks.

Navigating teen years together


Friday nights are pumping at
St Matthews Anglican Church
in Shenton Park where about
60 teenagers meet each week
for youth group.
The church runs two groups
for high school students, one for
Years 7 to 9 and one for Years
10 to 12.
Assistant minister Ed Surrey
said the evenings were designed
to be warm and welcoming and
included games, meal time, Bible
study and discussion.
High priority was given to
friendships, with an average of
one youth leader to every three
students.
Mr Surrey said the Bible was
very relevant for young people.

We live in a society that loves


the new, the young and the innovative, he said. We tend to
dismiss the old, the tried and
the tested as not good.
He said the Bible was one of
the things from the past that had
stood the test of time.
Mr Surrey has been working
with young people for 11 years
as a high school teacher and
assistant minister and likens
teenagers to boats without anchors or moorings.
Every little wave or wind is
pushing them in every direction
on every front of their lives, he
said. What they need is a rm
anchor.
The Bible shows them Gods

plan for humanity. It talks about


love, forgiveness, acceptance,
sex, gossip and friendship.
These are all things that
teenagers either need or want
and therefore the Bible is highly
relevant.
Mr Surrey said it was important that students had a chance
to query what had been discussed, so each week included
a question-and-answer session.
The leaders have workingwith-children cards and receive
ongoing training.
All are welcome at the youth
group and there is a $5 donation
to cover the cost of the meal.

Travel co-op takes top prize


A travel network that began
in WA in the mid-1970s and
went national has been named
Australias Best Travel Agency
Group at the prestigious 2015
National Travel Industry
Awards (NTIA) in Sydney.
The Travellers Choice travel
agency network, which includes
City Beach Travel and Cruise,
started as a small group of six
specialist WA agencies operat-

ing on co-operative principles.


John Hancock, who owns City
Beach Travel and Choice, said
the group was in celebration
mode.
He said the award recognised
Travellers Choices unique culture and its members focus on
customer service.
City Beach Travel and Cruise
is immensely proud to be part
of Travellers Choice, a travel
agency group that brings to-

gether Australias leading travel


agents, John said.
This award is the Australian
travel industrys highest
accolade and it recognises
the outstanding efforts that
Travellers Choice and its
members continually invest in
the development and delivery
of outstanding service to all our
customers.
The company is owned entirely by its members.

West Coast Eagles legends Josh Hill, Xavier Ellis, Jamie Bennell and Phil
Narkle put their support behind Run for Reconciliation 2015.

T-shirts for reconciliation

Some runners in this years


City to Surf on August 30 will
be wearing distinctive Run for
Reconciliation (R4R) T-shirts.
Last year, for the rst time, 120
Indigenous and non-Indigenous
people ran and walked together
as part of R4R.
This year, the project founders
Reconciliation WA, ICEA and
Indigenous Consulting Group
are aiming to have 1500 City
to Surf runners also registered
as Runners for Reconciliation.
The City to Surf is one of
the largest events in WA and
there was no recognition of
Aboriginal people or the concept
of reconciliation, Kali Balint,
CEO of Indigenous Consulting
Group said.
We thought this was a re-

ally important place to bring


the issue of reconciliation into
public focus.
The City to Surf will be on
Sunday, August 30, and whether
it is in the marathon, halfmarathon, 12km or 4km event,
individuals of all levels and
backgrounds are encouraged
to be a part of the R4R team.
ICEA founder Lockie Cooke
said of last years turnout: On
the day, it was such an amazing
experience, we had people from
all over Perth coming together
as volunteers, runners and also
as supporters.
We had people from the
Kimberley, the Wheatbelt, and
from Perth.

When The Beatles
jammed with
SARAH McNEILL

Only a handful of people


still alive today remember
the day in 1965 when the
Beatles met Elvis Presley.
Joe Esposito and
Jerry Schilling were
part of Elviss entourage,
nicknamed the Memphis
Mafia.
Joe had first met Elvis
when they both were in
the army in Germany in
1958 and he became the
singers bodyguard and
road manager. Now 77,
Joe is a part of a 50th
anniversary tribute show;
Elvis Meets the Beatles.
Joe and Jerry have
both contributed their
recollections of the only
time the worlds most
iconic musicians met.
The producer of the
show, Paul Fenech, is an
Elvis tribute artist who
regularly performs at his
own cabaret restaurant,
Elvis Pizza on Rushcutters
Bay in Sydney.
Paul is always looking
for new ways to promote
the music of Elvis and
when he realised this was
the anniversary year of the
unrecorded jam session
between the Fab Four and
the King of Rock n Roll,
he set the wheels in motion
for an international show.

Elvis

Planning began several


years ago to bring together
on stage the worlds best
Elvis performer, Chris
Connor from the UK, and
Las Vegas Beatles tribute
band, Forever Fab.
Together they will
perform the artists biggest
hits from the mid-60s to
the early 70s and re-create
on stage the jam session of
joint hits and covers that
they all performed and
recorded.
Joe Esposito brought
the Beatles to Elviss
house. He recalled:
They just didnt
say anything. They
kept looking at him. Elvis
kept looking around. He
didnt know what to say.
To break the ice, Elvis
got out a few guitars and
they sat around and played
some old 50s songs.
The Beatles were in awe
of Elvis but he loved their
music, Joe explained. He
recorded three of their
songs. He thought they
were great songwriters.
The concert is narrated
by Joe via a pre-recorded
video.
Paul said: Joe is not too
good these days and his
memory is fading. Jerry

In this 10th anniversary
stage production, director
James Powell reproduces
the look and feel of the

energetic and fabulously
dirty dancing, but the
short, speedy, and sometimes pointless vignette

stage show to have its own

Memory lies at the heart

from other family members

What would you say to

know about her future?
The play is screen and

and has been developed
with long-time friend,
writer and director Mikala
Westall, winner of this
years Fringe World
Emerging Artist award.
Mikala said: Mark and
I have always been fascinated by the notion of
memory and the fact that
you cant control other
peoples memories, but you
can manipulate them.
The play is set in a surreal, abstract world, on an
island where there are no
ephemera to prompt memory. As the three women
stand on the shore looking at grotesque creatures

wanting to feed on them,


they are aware that their
memories are hungry for
the truth.
Mikala said the play was
billed as horror, but not
because it was a blood n
guts story but rather one
of creeping menace and
heightened suspense.
Latitudes turns horror and mystery on their
heads, she said.
Under the direction
of Mikala, Latitudes is
produced by new theatre
company The Lost Boys,
which was nominated for
this years Fringe Festivals
best new work and best

work, Moving On.
Latitudes is at the

August 18 to September

One of the most beautiful exhibitions to be seen in Perth in recent years it is not to be missed.

SARAH McNEILL

New York pianist and


raconteur Evans Haile is a
passionate advocate of the
business of the arts.
So he readily accepted
an invitation from Steven
Roth, chief executive of
the WA Ballet to perform
a fundraising piano concert
in Perth.
Evans, who is currently
artistic director of the
Gainesville Orchestra in
Florida, and director of the
Cape Playhouse on Cape
Cod (where Broadway
goes to in the summer),
and of Opera North in
New Hampshire, says the
arts are more important
than ever before.

The arts are a shared experience says pianist and raconteur Evans Haile.

Despite being able to


communicate instantly and
constantly, people are more
disconnected than ever.
Take a moment, he

insisted, speaking by phone


from New Hampshire.
Put down the phone, close
the iPad and shut down
the computer and get out

and do something with


other people. The arts are a
shared experience.

would perform in Perth

Symphony Orchestra at 17.
In 2013, Rebecca took up
a six-month contract with
the Vancouver Symphony
Orchestra, where she met
and became firm friends
with violist Emilie Grimes.
Emilie has a masters
degree from the Juilliard
School of Music in New
York and has been a
member of the Vancouver
Symphony Orchestra since
2012.
Emilie is visiting Rebecca

in Perth and they have


decided to perform together in Chimera Ensembles

this Sunday, August 16, at
Trinity College, East Perth.
They will be joined by
Rebeccas sister, violinist Andrea Mendham,

In between playing
Gershwin, Chopin, Strauss

Evans tells stories.
His favourite is that his

Chopin gave that teacher a

Howard Park, Frankland


Estate, Alkoomi, West Cape
Howe, Castelli, Forest Hill and
Harewood Estate are just a
few.
The recently-released James
Halliday Wine Companion
confirmed this, with
these wineries picking up
impressive scores up into the
high 90s.
Iconic wines such as
Houghtons Jack Mann
(James Halliday 95 points),
Larry Cherubinos Cabernet
(James Halliday 98pts) and
Howard Parks Abercrombie
Cabernet (James Halliday
96pts) all hail from the Great
Southern region.
At 20,000 square
kilometres and taking in the
Porongurups, Mt Barker,
Albany, Denmark and
Frankland River, the Great
Southern is geographically
not only WAs biggest wine
region, but also the biggest in
Australia.
These sub-regions produce
wines that clearly express
their own terroirs, and are
populated by winemakers
and viticulturists intent on
creating wines that best speak
of the ground from which
they spring.
Varieties produced in the
Great Southern span riesling,
chardonnay, malbec and
tempranillo, as well as the
successful cabernets and pinot
noirs.
This Saturday, August 15,
wine writer Ray Jordan

hosts a dinner titled The


Brave, The Tried and the True
at the Hyatt in Perth, with
the aim of showcasing and
discussing the heroes and

This wine certainly
delivers. More
delicate and
less tannic than
expected, it opens
with bright red
raspberries and
blood plums,
sarsaparilla and
cranberry. The wine has great
structure. The tannins are
earthy and balanced giving it
a generous, chewy character
and there is spicy white
pepper and a touch of star
anise through the finish. This
is serious enough to take to
dinner, yet delicious enough
to drink alone.

What the critics are saying


Iris (M)

Maysles portrait of Iris Apfel, a


93-year-old self-described geriatric
starlet, is surprisingly memorable,
graced with an unforced but
unmistakable charm, says the LA
Times. The Hollywood Reporter agrees:
What makes the sharp-as-a-tack
nonagenarian Apfel such splendid
company is that beneath the busy
prints and multi-layered accessories
is a woman who is less an eccentric
than an ineffably sane, sensible
commentator on her own colourful life
and the world she inhabits.

Last Cab to Darwin (M)

Offing oneself has never been


more winning than it is in Last Cab
to Darwin, director Jeremy Sims
(Beneath Hill 60) wryly comic tale,
according to the Hollywood Reporter,
in which the director wrings gentle
pleasures from this most unlikely
of subjects. The SMH calls it a
vivid portrait of outback life at an
unspecified time that blends past and
present. Sims taps into an Australia
thats familiar ... colourful and
nostalgic, without baulking at showing
the racism that also exists.

Cult memoir
Actor Ryan Corr will be at Luna
Leederville on Wednesday, August 26,
before heading south to CinefestOz for
the screening of his new film, Holding
the Man.
The film is based on Timothy
Conigraves cult-classic memoir.
Ryan stars as Timothy Conigrave in
the touching story of the 15-year love
affair with the boy he fell in love with
at high school, footballer John Caleo
(Craig Stott).
Their relationship endured prejudice
and adversity.
Holding the Man will screen at Luna
Leederville at 6.30pm and a Q&A with
Ryan will follow.
Ryan will then walk the CinefestOz
red carpet at the films premiere
screening on August 27 at the Margaret
River Cultural Centre.
CinefestOz film festival runs from
August 26 to 30, in Bunbury, Busselton,
Dunsborough and the Margaret River.

Young inventor Reid Richards (Miles Teller) puts his teleporter machine to the test.

Nothing comic about comic book heroes


Fantastic Four (M)

REVIEW: PIER LEACH

Maybe its jinxed: Fantastic


Fours origin story, after the
already forgotten 2005 attempt
starring Jessica Alba, is anything but its titular superlative.
Hopes were high because its
cast is certainly fantastic. Miles
Teller (Whiplash), playing
earnest young inventor Reed
Richards, is a talented actor
who has shone since his breakout 2010 film Rabbit Hole.
Kate Mara, who plays young
scientist Sue Storm, thrilled
in televisions House of Cards
until Kevin Spacey threw her

under a train. And the final


two of the quartet, Michael B
Jordan (Fruitvale Station) and
Jamie Bell (Billy Elliot), are
also fine young actors.
But their efforts are unlikely
to secure the films scheduled
sequel a worse outcome than
even the 2005 version.
The films main problem,
especially at the end of the US
blockbuster season, is that it is
completely humourless. And if
youre going to forgo the kind
of fun recent comic book films
like Guardians of the Galaxy
and Ant-Man have traded on,
you need to give it an edge, like
Nolans dark, twisted Batman
films.
Fantastic Four has neither.

Instead, director Josh Trank


(Chronicle), working from a
script he wrote with Jeremy
Slater and Simon Kinberg, is
plodding.
After creating a home-made
teleporter machine in high
school, Reed is recruited by the
Baxter Institutes Dr Franklin
Storm (Reg Cathey) to refine
the technology with Storms
son Johnny (Jordan), adopted
daughter Sue (Mara), and the
portentously named Victor Von
Doom (Toby Kebbell).
Of course, their first human
experiment at interdimensional
travel goes pear-shaped, leaving Victor behind and transforming the others into various
superheros Reed with the

ability to stretch ridiculously,


Sue able to become invisible,
Ben (Bell) into a rock-like
hulk, and Johnny into a flying
fireball.
Von Doom, naturally, is the
powerful nemesis they find
when they go back to retrieve
Victor. But the special effects
are ho-hum, the action scenes
dull and the rote, pseudo-scientific jargon is plain ridiculous.
Tranks worst offence,
though, is failing to create a
world in which anyone can
emotionally invest either with
present-day realism (like the
Iron Man origin story) or pure
nostalgia (like Spider-Man).
In a superhero glut, it doesnt
even come close to super.

Once the movers have
done their job it will be
the glamorous atrium, or
perhaps the elegant main
bedroom but until then, a
walk through the study feels
like a tour of WA history.
A letter from Ronald
Reagan congratulating
Bond for his Americas Cup
victory hangs on the wall,
next to paintings of yachts
and a commemorative
group photo of the Bond
University board.
In the adjoining foyer, a
painting of a boxing kangaroo surrounded by US flags
makes quite a statement to
visitors.
As he did in life, Alan
Bond makes his presence
felt even in his absence.

His private paradise


is being sold by his daughter, Acton Cottesloes Jody
Fewster, who is surprisingly comfortable with the
prospect.
Home has always been
where the family is to us,
she says.
This house is full of
fantastic memories ... but
Dads not here, so it wont
be hard.
Built on a 727sq.m block,
the lavish home was the
result of a lifetime of experience.
Whatever he liked about
other houses he included,
and whatever annoyed him
he ironed out.
As a result it has a more
practical dimension to it
than most beachside mansions, and plenty to boast
about.
Two big guest suites lie
near the entrance, with
identical layouts.

Each has a built-in robe


and an ensuite, but the
front one has a nautical
theme while the other is
reminiscent of the Far East.
Out in the adjoining
atrium, a circular mezzanine surrounds a two-storey
void to create a lasting
impression.
The expansive main
suite is upstairs, sporting an
ensuite, a walk-in robe and
an English palace theme.
A walk from the main
suite takes you past a
carpeted library before
arriving at the top-floor
living area, which includes
a well-appointed kitchen,
separate dining room and
gas fireplace.
An encloseable alfresco
balcony is adjacent, offering views of the ocean and
the pool.
Offers are sought in the
range of $4.5million to
$5million.

A circular mezzanine crowns the homes lavish atrium.

Enjoy summer meals under the vine-covered dome in the


alfresco courtyard.

Reno ... Queensland-style


They must be a crazy lot in
Queensland, where potential buyers
are considering renovating a rundown house with rotting timber
walls, a caved-in veranda and
a collapsed floor. But they do
things differently in banana-bender
territory (think Joh Bjelke-Petersen,
Clive Palmer, cane toads, the big
banana/pineapple/rum bottle).
Agent Gunther Behrendt, of Ray
White, Stones Corner, said he was
surprised by the number of people
who wanted to renovate the threebedroom house at 50 Deighton
Road, Dutton Park. Its being
auctioned on August 22, at 1pm.
We had the first home open or
land open last Saturday, with
21 groups through, Mr Behrendt
said. Some people are thinking
about keeping the house because
its built on the boundary. If it was
knocked down, you wouldnt be
able to build in the same position.
So how much does he think it will go
for? In Queensland, we cant give
an auction price guide like they do
in other states. All I can say is the
median house price for the suburb is
$755,000. For more details, phone
0418 310 091.

The POSTs property writer, JULIE BAILEY, would like to hear your
real estate news. Please email julie@postnewspapers.com.au.
and a lake. It has a pool, a new
oak kitchen and a new bathroom
on the top floor. An old barn was
converted to a covered terrace,
which serves as an open-air living
room. Original beams, wooden
shutters and Roman-style tiles add
to the charming feel of the house.
Its on the market for 466,000 euros
(about $700,000) and this includes
the agents fee. For more details,
email cisca.spencer@iinet.net.au.

Love it or flatten it

There are many things Cisca


Spencer, of Dalkeith, will miss when
she sells her much-loved holiday
house in the South of France. It is
such a romantic property, reached
by a small forest road, with glimpses
of the valley below, Cisca said.
Cisca and her husband bought the
house, Laspeyres Basses, about
seven years ago, and have had
many wonderful family holidays
there. We spent many evenings
sitting on the terrace watching the
light fade across the valley, she
said. One of the best things about
the house is its location near walks
through steep river valleys and
fields of sunflowers, wheat, maize
and stone fruit. But now its time
for another family to enjoy the
big five-bedroom, three-bathroom
stone house, between Agen and
Villeneuve-sur-Lot (near Toulouse).
Almost every room in the house
has a superb view across the valley

Acton Cottesloe agent Jody


Fewster didnt mince her words
when she described 62 Watkins
Road, Dalkeith: It will be love at
first sight, or youll be calling in
the bulldozers. Offers close on
August 25 for the Cape Dutch-style
home designed by architect Alfred
John Naude. It has a sunroom,
two mezzanine studies and a big
landholding of 1316sq.m. The fourbedroom and three-bathroom home
might tickle your renovating fancy,
Ms Fewster said. It has palatial
proportions and strong European
styling with great natural light,
quirky charm and impressive tripleheight ceilings.

Bachelor on the block


If youre an auctioneer and
you dont want to sell your own
property, who do you call? Bachelor
star Blake Garvey, of course. Last
weekend, Mr Garvey auctioned 2

Dunkeld Street, Floreat, on behalf of


a local agent. After bidding reached
$1.31million, the auction stopped
... well kind of. The property wasnt
passed in, according to agent Vivien
Yap, of LJ Hooker Claremont. It
was carried over, Ms Yap said.
The owner wanted to do it that
way so we could keep dealing with
buyers. Weve got offers well over
$1.31million. The 1960s home,
designed by architect Geoffrey
Summerhayes, is on a 916sq.m
site. In the same suburb, a blockvalue home at 42 Alderbury Street

was knocked down to a final bid


of $1.2million. Adrian Abel and
Michael Hallam, of Abel McGrath,
sold the 1001sq.m property. Mr
Hallam said July was traditionally
a quiet month. Its busier in
August when people start getting
their homes ready for the spring
selling season, he said. Meanwhile
in Mosman Park, there were no
bidders for a modern home at 4 The
Cutting. Caporn Young agents Kate
Frichot and Vynka Malone have
advertised the riverside home from
$2.9million.

Abel McGrath property consultant
and Doubleview expert, Richard
Clucas, says with the hills to
the East and the ocean to the
West, its no surprise that the
speed of the urban sprawl North
HUK:V\[OVM7LY[OPZILJVTPUN
unsustainable.
Urban density is continuously
increasing in inner metropolitan
areas as local governments rezone
areas with historically larger lots,
Mr Clucas explains.
He cites the recent zoning
changes in the City of Cambridge
as an example, although it was
met by protests from existing

residents.
Although councillors passed a
diluted version of Ammendment
31 of the Town Planning
:JOLTLP[^HZHJRUV^SLKNLK
as a necessary and unavoidable
step towards accommodating
increased population growth and
housing demand.
Mr Clucas says that if population
growth tracks as expected,
800,000 more dwellings will
be required and a variety of
approaches will be needed to
accommodate this growth.
He says although there will
always be some resistance,
rezoning of established areas is
an unavoidable by-product of a
growing, maturing city.
;OLILUL[ZVMYLaVUPUNWVY[PVUZ
of inner city suburbs isnt just
that it provides more dwellings in
desirable suburbs, he explains.
It provides a variety of housing

Apartment developments in
many established areas, such

North Fremantle and Ascot, are


another example of the variety of
housing options now available to
those who are not chasing the
X\HY[LYHJYLISVJRPUHMHY\UN
development.
Mr Clucas said Doubleview was
the perfect example of a suburb
where subdivisions continued to
occur within the boundary north
VM:JHYIVYV\NO)LHJO9VHK^P[O
very few issues for old and new
residents.
The suburb is predominantly
zoned R40 and appeals to a
broad demographic because of its
coastal lifestyle, the predominance
of young families and its proximity
to a host of amenities.
And because of the availability
of smaller lots, its far more
HVYKHISL[OHUZVTLVM[OL
surrounding suburbs.
He says in many instances the
existing household was positioned
on the front of the lot with
subdivision allowing it to remain
untouched.
Right of way access lanes are
common in the area, which
eliminates the need for additional

driveways meaning the original


streetscape is preserved.
Its a good example of planning
done well and with respect
for both existing and aspiring
residents.

does not in any way diminish the planning or heritage
controls that apply to existing
heritage places.
Under the amendment it
would be no different to if a
development application was
received in respect of these
properties under the current
town planning scheme.

Wedges OK not DAPs to give


From page 18

presiding member, Megan


Bartle, told the developers
they needed to go to the
Department of Planning to
progress the rezoning.
The application was refused
by a unanimous vote of the
five-person panel.
But then the three government-appointed DAP members outvoted the two sitting
Subiaco councillors to tell the
developer they generally supported the plans and would
be prepared to consider it
once the land had been appropriately zoned.
Blackburne appealed
against the decision to
the State Administrative
Tribunal.

The plans were reconsidered and approved at a secret


meeting in the Department of
Planning on March 21, 2012.
The parliamentary inquiry
which is due to report on
the workings of DAPs next
month has been told that
DAPs held secret meetings
for SAT appeals for their first
12 to 18 months.
Mr Foley, a Department of
Planning staffer for 26 years,
told the inquiry that perhaps
a residential development
would have been better use
of the land than a commercial
building.
The local community
missed out on the opportunity
to make a comment on that
because the decision was
made, he said.

The WAPC may have made


the same decision, I do not
know.
The point was that it was
not the WAPC making it
either.
Subiaco council said its
preference was to rezone the
land R80 for medium to highdensity housing and sought a
senior counsels legal advice
on the office blocks approval.
Senior Counsel Ken Pettit
found the approval, at a closed
meeting, failed to give the
council and the community
the right to make submissions.
The offices now house several companies, including
the Hegney Property Group
and the WA Cancer Council,
which moved from West Perth
in May.

He said that he had been in

We could then come back


in March and if all was well
the council could then take
out the western section, he
said.
Ms Ledgerwood said resident Judy Watt was one of
the instigators of the fence
because of the number of
fires there.
Every summer there was
a fire, sometimes two, she
said. When the fence went
up the fires stopped.

She said the other reason


for the fence was to ensure
the block became bush so it
could not be developed for
housing.
She said Ms Watt was happy
with the compromise of removing one fence.
When you are standing in
Judy Watts living room and
looking at this fence it is like
a chicken coop, she said.
Ms Ledgerwood used her
casting vote to recommend
removing the northern
Fairbairn Street fence op-

posite the homes, keeping the


southern and eastern fences
to discourage dogs and pedestrians and planting on the
western side to either move
the fence back and increase
the buffer zone, or alternatively removing that side.
The full council will consider the recommendation
on August 25.
Deputy mayor Ian Flack
asked Mr Poynton to find out
what the neighbours thought
and report to the council
meeting.

Ice in sewage probe secrecy

but he was feeling fine.
Another sheet said: I have
obtained footage of [addicts
name] from January 2015 in
which he appears to be eating
his own faeces on his front
driveway.
The neighbours have also
supplied footage in which
he has been yelling abuse,
sceaming and behaving erratically.
Residents hope a violence
restraining order taken out
against the addict in January
will help solve the problem.
He has breached it twice:
if he breaches it a third time
police can lock him up, a
resident said.
The addict inherited the
property after his father died
two years ago.
The addicts mother, who
lives in a neighbouring suburb, denied her son caused
trouble or had been fined
for drug and ammunition
possession.
Neighbours said she cooked
for her son and did his washing.

A police plan to test sewage plants for traces of the


drug ice may or may not
involve the Subiaco waste
water treatment plant.
Tests will initially be carried out at three metropolitan
sewage plants looking for
metabolites, a by-product
generated in the bodies of

people who have taken methamphetamine.


Human waste from close
to two million people is expected to be analysed.
The Subiaco plant treats
about 60million litres of waste
water a day and is one of the
biggest sewage plants in Perth.
However, treatment plants

at Beenyup and Woodman


Point process much bigger
volumes daily (up to 160million litres).
A spokesman for Police
Minister Liza Harvey said
police did not want to disclose
at this point which waste
water centres they would be
targeting.

He said to remove any doubt


the council would consider
excluding the two properties.
The town does not intend
to reduce heritage controls
over registered heritage
places, he said.
Ms Marshner asked if
Cambridge council was in
breach of the law by not updating its heritage inventory.
She said several properties
in the area that were pending
assessment by the Heritage
Council for possible inclusion
on the state register.
Iwan Iwanoff was born in
Bulgaria and after World
War II came to Australia as
a displaced person.
Known for his Brutalist
style, he lived in Floreat.
He is listed in the Australian
National Dictionary of
Biography.

Subiaco
backs extra
night footy
From page 3

and West Coast Eagles ...


there is a strong probability
that Subiaco Oval will need
to accommodate more than
12 night sporting events,
given the high probability
of a number of AFL finals,
Geoff Glass, WAFC general
manager of strategic facilities and governance, said in
a development application,
lodged after the meeting.
There were, he added,
potential opportunities for
other night sporting events for
other football codes.
Mr Glass, a Subiaco planning director from 1999 to
2006, said the commission
wanted the extension in case
of unforeseen circumstances
and to allow for contingency
planning if required.
The new Burswood stadium
is expected to open for the
start of the 2018 AFL season.
At Tuesday nights development services committee
meeting, councillors voted
unanimously in favour of
the extra 14 nights with conditions on the brightness,
timing, how and when the
floodlights could be used.

Finnegan finds
foreign form
SURFING

with Damian Lipscombe


WA bodyboarder Lewy Finnegan won
his maiden Bodyboard World Tour event
in Nilda, Chile, last weekend.
Lewy took an early lead with his opening
two rides during the four-man final, leaving
2008 world champion Uri Valadao (Brazil) in
second place.
Meanwhile, Trigg beach will see the running
of the metropolitan leg of the statewide
Sunsmart School Surfing Titles this week.
Local schools that could shake up Margaret
River Senior High Schools recent dominance
include Carine High School and Fremantles
Christian Brothers College.
Organisers are hoping for more moderate
conditions later in the week to allow for the
high standards seen at last years event.

Ten tallows were planted by


residents on street verges in
June, but a report to councillors
at last Tuesday nights council
meeting said they were at odds
with Claremonts policy.
The report said Claremont
adopted its street tree plan
two years ago after community
consultation.
The london plane was selected
for Thomson Road ... however,
this selection did not satisfy all
residents, the report said.

Claremont council letterdropped to 32 Thomson Road


homes. Of the 19 replies, 10 said
they wanted poincianas.
Five preferred london planes
and three wanted tallows.
Councillors voted unanimously
to remove the tallows.
The residents who planted the
trees will be given the opportunity
to take them back to plant on
private property, a council
spokeswoman said.
Any left after that (maybe two
or three at the very most) will be
planted in the park nearby.
The cost to the town would be
under $100.

From page 86

Lekka said his boots were the most important


part of his kit, that he didnt favour a send-off
rule like Barry Hall did, and if he could have
dinner with anybody he wanted, it would be
surfing champ Mick Fanning.
And if he was allowed a second guest, Mick
would have to be prepared to talk basketball
as well, because Celtics legend Larry Bird
would be there too.
It had been explained to me earlier that no
member of the press had ever been allowed
into the locker room, because team mottos and
game plans were everywhere and they were
for Eagle eyes only.
So I asked Lekka about the web and the
Eagles game plan, but he confirmed politely,
with a meaningful smile, that there would not
be any discussion about the game plan.
And fair enough.
It was time to close the notebook, and I know
it was extremely presumptuous, when you are
talking to a guy with a bloody near-perfect
goal-kicking technique and the results to show
for it, but told Lekka Id spotted a small glitch
in his kicking style.
What is it? he asked, I would be mad not
to pick your brain!
Now, Im acutely aware that the last thing the
Eagles coaching staff would want is an old fossil
like me giving advice to one of their milliondollar footballers, but I told him anyway.
He knew exactly what I was talking about,
and could explain why, which like everything
else about this young man, made perfectly
good sense.
I am sure hell play an integral part of the
Eagles, finals campaign next month and
hopefully in October as well.

Council CEO Greg Trevaskis


confirmed club officials had talked
to staff about the idea for land off
Alfred Road.
Nothing formal has been put to
us, Mr Trevaskis said.
People come to us all the time
and ask us questions, but until
there is something formal before
us, there is nothing we can do.
No one at the club was available
to comment.
Nedlands deputy mayor, councillor Bill Hassell, said if the club

had spare land it should hand it


back to the council.
It is understood the idea has
been widely discussed with golf
club members at three meetings
and with local MP and Premier
Colin Barnett.
Mr Trevaskis said the land was
a C-class reserve.
He said he expected the state
government would want to be paid
for the land.
That is expensive land, he said.
The club would need the agreement of the government and
Nedlands council.
Under changes in land laws,
C-class reserves no longer exist,
according to state government
information brochures.

Austin Robertsons sporting

A legend comes to town


To hear your name mentioned in the same sentence
as Peter Hudson, one of only
26 Legends of the AFL, is
downright overwhelming and
humbling.

Nic Nat dominates the centre bounces, boundary throw-ins and stoppages.

The Nic and Nat show


In a match that would do justice to any grand final, played in
tricky and difficult conditions,
the indefatigable Hawks defeated the gallant Eagles at Subi
last weekend, thus keeping the
race for the top two wide open.
Make no mistake, these two
birds of prey were well matched
everywhere, neither with any
perceptible weakness.
But something was missing.
You hardly needed a bolt of
lightning from the leaden skies
to work out what it was.
For the saddest and most personal of reasons, Big Nic Nat was
not there.
Its hard to quantify just what
not having Big Nic there to
dominate the centre bounces,
boundary throw-ins and stoppages
actually meant.
On numerous occasions over
the past five years, I have been at
the forefront of criticism of Nic
Naitanui s spasmodic contribution to the Eagles overall plan,

despite his wonderful athleticism


and potential.
But since coach Adam Simpsons
arrival, Big Nic has established
himself as one of the elite power
players in the AFL.
Hes one of those select players who can be compared to Just
Spectacles: buy one and get one
free. The big guy is as valuable
as two players.
The Dockers, of course, have
their own Just Spectacles superstar, Nat the Magnif, even though
hes been wrapped up so tightly
in cotton wool that he has been
invisible for the past couple of
rounds.
There doesnt appear to be too
much wrong with Nathan, and a
short break has been just what he
needed to exert maximum revs
in the run-up to the finals, starting, probably, in this weekends
massive derby.
Lets hope he will get back to
help Sundays game live up to
its billing.

THE CLUB WITH THE


MILLION DOLLAR VIEW

For years I had wanted to


meet Peter, who was often at
the other end of the ground
from me during epic WA v
Victoria clashes in the days
of yore.
We did bump into each other
once, if memory serves me
correctly, at East Fremantle
Oval many moons ago when
Peter, Fred Phillis (the SA
full-forward of the day) and I
had a goal-kicking competition.
Incredibly, we had never met
formally, or had the chance
to shoot the breeze and swap
ideas.
But, last Friday, Peter the
Great and I were on the same
bill, entertaining a packed
house at the Blue Duck, in
Marine Parade, for the North
Cottesloe surf club.
It was a brilliant day, organised and compered by an
old mate, Subiaco stalwart
and AFL Life Member, Brian
Sierakowski.
I learnt Peter has a sharp
mind and a wonderful sense
of humour, and hes the most
humble of men.
I love the way the game is
played today, he said in answer to one question.
Thats not in sharp contrast
to my own feelings, though I am
more critical about rotations
and congestion.
I can see the day when we
will again have forwards that
kick 100 goals, he said.
The game continues to
evolve, and it was only a few
years ago that Buddy Franklin
topped the ton.

Siera, centre, Huddo and me reminiscing about the good times.


obvious question: Darling,
where are the kids?
Geeeezes, Peter shouted,
theyre still in the tavern!
The story ended happily:
there was no bomb!
At my Hall of Fame induction dinner a night I am still
coming to grips with Peter
was just two tables away, but
every time I looked over, he
was talking to somebody, which
prevented me from going over
to meet him.
He told me the same thing it
was a case of two ships in the
night so to get to meet the
great man finally was sweet
indeed.
I took great delight in reminding him wed actually
crossed paths once before, that
day at East Fremantle Oval.
He recalled the event, but
not the result.
But I did!
Hudson 3 goals 2 behinds;
Phillis 3.2; Robertson 4.1
(after missing the first one, 40
yards out, straight in front).
Good to be able to beat the
Vics at anything, eh?
Even if he was Tasmanian.

I agree with Peter on that


one.
The game is cyclical, and, just
like bell-bottom trousers, the
100-goals-a-year full-forwards
will come back.
Peter and his son, Paul, both
played in Hawthorn premierships, 20 years apart Peter in
1971 and Paul in 1991.
Even more incredible than
that is that the enduring
Michael Tuck, the AFL games
record holder at 426 games,
played in both matches.
And, if youre into incredible,
hows this?
Peter owned and ran the
Grenada Tavern in Tassie,
and one night they had a bomb
scare.
The bomb was due to go
off at midnight, and it was as
though Carlton tough man Wes
Lofts was hot on Huddos heels
because the champ had all the
patrons out of the tavern in
double-quick time.
Just as the gathered throng
outside were counting down
to the stroke of the witching
hour 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 Petes wife
arrived home, and asked the

FOR THE INFORMATION OF MPBC MEMBERS AND THEIR GUESTS

Last year, Nat the Magnif


suffered at the hands of the
match review panel when
suspended, and last week
Mark Lekka LeCras was also
sidelined for being unlucky
rather than malicious.
Last Friday, I was privileged
to get an opportunity to interview Lekka.
I had just watched a West
Coast Eagles training session and I had booked an
interview with master-class
sharp-shooting-forward-nowcum-midfielder through Gary
Stocks, the clubs PR head.
It was good to watch LeCras train, though overall, it
looked more like grown men
playing ring-a-ring-rosy than
what I would call serious AFL
football training.
This is really just a touch
session, Gary explained.
Their main session will
start tomorrow.
But the time for the interview was approaching as Mark
had taken a few shots on goal
(all good), and Gary said that
if I caught the lift back downstairs, I could meet him and
Lekka in the foyer.
Emerging from the lift, I
took a wrong turn and ended
up back in the street before
Garry, like a bloodhound,
emerged to guide me back to
the main foyer.
There was a slight hesitation
from Lekka when I hit him up
with my first question, about
whether he was enjoying

Mark LeCras
playing in the midfield and
up forward, rather than just
being a pure forward.
Umm, yes definitely enjoying it, he said.
I have worked hard, and,
of course, I am still spending
much more time in the forward
half.
There is a special bond between forwards of any era, the
chosen ones, if you like, given
the responsibility of kicking
the teams goals.
I also discovered similarities
between Mark LeCras and me:
we both started our careers at
19; we are exactly the same
height (183cm); we had exactly
the same playing weight (82kg);
we both kicked drop punts
exclusively; and LeCras is, and
I was, recognised as a pretty
accurate kick.
As youngsters, we both used
whatever targets were avail-

able to develop goal-kicking


skills as an apprenticeship for
later years in company with
the big boys.
I didnt model my kicking
style on anybody, LeCras said,
but I started very young and
my brother and I used a couple
of trees as goalposts.
In the next 10 minutes I
learnt that the only thing really French about him was
his name (he said it came
from way back), that he firmly
believed the Eagles could win
the premiership, that he felt
the Eagles greatest danger
was Fremantle, that he wasnt
really superstitious, but Matt
Priddis was, that his toughest
opponent was Craig Bolton,
and the player he admired
most was Dean Kemp.
But on to what I thought
were a couple of need-to-know
questions.
One of the truly great footy
mysteries to me is why a
player, who is clearly not fatigued, will leave the ground
for a rotation immediately
after hes kicked a goal.
It has always seemed to me
that a man who is hot may just
kick another one if he is left
out there.
How does that work? A satellite signal from Simmo?
No, Lekka clarified, rotations are pretty much decided
on time before the game starts.
Sometimes we might get a
message from the box, and a
goal being kicked gives us the
time to get off the field.
Well, that satisfies my longheld curiosity.
