Giant Steps Gingerbread House<br />

Decorating fund raiser<br />

Dear Sir<br />

Hello, my name is Chami and my son attends Giant Steps,<br />

school for children with autism in Gladesville.<br />

Autism is a pervasive development disorder which affects social<br />

and communication skills and, to a greater or lesser degree,<br />

motor and language skills.<br />

We are very fortunate that our nine year old son is able to attend<br />

Giant Steps as it has made a huge difference to his progress<br />

and the quality of life of our entire family.<br />

Giant Steps is a registered charity and was founded to help<br />

educate children and families experiencing autism, to alleviate<br />

associated stress and to guide in the achievement of measurable<br />

results.<br />

Giant Steps charges no fees and parents contribute in whatever<br />

way they can.<br />

Government funding only covers part of Giant Steps’ running<br />

costs so the families of the children who attend Giant Steps<br />

need to raise around $3.85 million each year to keep Giant<br />

Steps operating.<br />

We are hosting a Gingerbread house decorating fundraiser to<br />

raise funds for the school and was hoping you would be able to<br />

put a notice in your local area newspaper promoting the event.<br />

Detail for the event can be found on the link below.<br />

https://giantsteps.net.au/fundraising-event/gingerbreadhouse/<br />

Thanks in advance for your help.<br />

<br />

School reopening<br />

is welcomed<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

It is fantastic that Macquarie<br />

Boys High School is<br />

being reopened as a new<br />

co-ed K-12 school.<br />

A new school has been critically<br />

needed for a long time.<br />

This also benefits many<br />

students from the Marsden<br />

relocation.<br />

As a former student of<br />

Marsden I fully back and<br />

support the relocation of<br />

Marsden, however my initial<br />

concern, was that it would<br />

disadvantage families living<br />

in Rydalmere, Parramatta, Ermington,<br />

Dundas, Carlingford<br />

and Telopea as the closest<br />

public high school other than<br />

Marsden is Cumberland High,<br />

15km away from Marsden,<br />

leaving many students without<br />

adequate school accessibility.<br />

By moving to the education<br />

precinct this would make<br />

that trip even longer and<br />

more difficult for students in<br />

the Parramatta Council area.<br />

Thankfully that has now been<br />

rectified.<br />

As should be the case,<br />

Marsden and students in<br />

Ryde should not miss out on<br />

a fantastic facility and innovation<br />

from the relocation simply<br />

because other Council’s do<br />

not have the infrastructure to<br />

support them.<br />

It will be a privilege for<br />

Marsden students to learn at<br />

a brand new facility and they<br />

should all be excited for it.<br />

Marsden needed a change,<br />

and this is the perfect change.<br />

Thanks Geoff Leigh, Victor<br />

Dominello and Education<br />

Minister Rob Stokes for pushing<br />

Parramatta and Ryde into<br />

the forefront of education in<br />

NSW.<br />

Not illegal to<br />

seek refuge<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Why am I not surprised to<br />

see a letter from Tony Ikonomou<br />

jumping on the band<br />

wagon with his dog-whistle..<br />

He is appalled by the latest<br />

terrorist attack in Melbourne<br />

which is fair enough.<br />

However it didn’t take long<br />

for him to point the finger at<br />

“migrants, so-called asylum<br />

seekers and refugees from<br />

third world countries.”<br />

Mr Ikonomou forgets that<br />

aside from indigenous Australians<br />

we have all come here<br />

from other lands and that those<br />

who come and gain residency<br />

or citizenship do so legally.<br />

And it is not illegal to seek<br />

asylum and to migrate. This is<br />

a normal process and Australia<br />

rightly welcomes peoples from<br />

all over the world.<br />

Unfortunately Mr Ikonomou<br />

is incapable of considered<br />

thought, instead seeking to<br />

spread fear by exaggeration<br />

and a fostering of prejudice.<br />

Some facts might help him.<br />

Since 1972 there have been<br />

18 people killed in Australia in<br />

terror related events and 6 of<br />

those were the perpetrators<br />

themselves.<br />

In that same period 62 people<br />

have died as a result of<br />

shark attacks and more than<br />

14,000 have been murdered,<br />

usually by someone they know<br />

or are related to.<br />

So let’s get this all in proportion<br />

and stop blaming “those<br />

people”.<br />

If we spent more on mental<br />

health along with work opportunities<br />

for the young and disenfranchised<br />

then we’d create<br />

an even safer country than the<br />

one we already live in.<br />

HUNTER’S HILL COUNCIL<br />

CONSIDERATION OF AN INCREASE TO RATES<br />

EXHIBITION OF COUNCIL’S INTEGRATED PLANNING DOCUMENTS<br />

INCLUDING THE LONG TERM FINANCIAL PLAN<br />

While Council continues to strive to increase the efficiency of its operations in<br />

order to remain financially viable and provide for effective maintenance and<br />

renewal of its community infrastructure, several external factors have led to costs<br />

increasing beyond Council’s control.<br />

Shortly, all ratepayers will receive a detailed brochure outlining Council’s proposed<br />

rate strategy which has been developed to maintain, further develop and enhance<br />

our community facilities.<br />

Council will be asking the community and property owners for feedback about<br />

the following three options:<br />

• Option 1: Rate peg increase 2.7% (statutory increase that all councils<br />

receive)<br />

• Option 2: Rate peg 2.7% + Community Facilities 4.04% SV (10 year<br />

period)<br />

• Option 3: Rate peg 2.7% + Community Facilities 4.04% SV (10yrs) +<br />

Operational 3% SV (permanent)<br />

Please visit the Hunter’s Hill Council website www.huntershill.nsw.gov.au for<br />

detailed information, the rates calculator, and answers to frequently asked<br />

questions (FAQ’s).<br />

Council also has its Integrated Planning & Reporting (IP&R) documents on public<br />

exhibition. This includes Councils Community Strategic Plan and Long Term<br />

Financial Plan (LTFP) which outline Council’s financial position and reasons<br />

why Council will consider a SV. Comments will be received up until Monday 10<br />

December <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

Your feedback will be used to make a determination on the proposed variation to<br />

rates and residents can participate by:<br />

• Take part in the IRIS telephone survey if you are called.<br />

GENERAL MANAGER<br />

Public input in<br />

planning a farce<br />

Dear Sir,<br />

Why can’t the State Government<br />

win public support<br />

for its urban transformation<br />

projects? Why is there so<br />

much outrage about mining,<br />

logging and land clearing?<br />

<strong>The</strong> Government tends to<br />

dismiss objections as nimbyism<br />

or greenie obstructionism.<br />

This line is supported loudly<br />

by developer groups, mining<br />

lobbyists and others who<br />

benefit financially.<br />

But who pays attention to<br />

the ordinary people whose<br />

homes are demolished for<br />

major infrastructure projects,<br />

whose amenity is destroyed<br />

by high rise apartment towers,<br />

whose farms and villages are<br />

polluted by mines and logging?”<br />

Partly as a result of BPN’s<br />

constant campaign for improved<br />

community consultation,<br />

the government has<br />

mandated community participation<br />

in some aspects of<br />

the planning system and the<br />

Department of Planning and<br />

Environment is currently seeking<br />

feedback on its new Community<br />

Participation Plan.<br />

<strong>The</strong> problem is as much with<br />

what people cannot comment<br />

on as what they can. Community<br />

consultation has been<br />

removed on “complying development”.<br />

This means people<br />

have no right to object to<br />

development plans that range<br />

from the house next door that<br />

overshadows your solar system<br />

to the medium density<br />

manor house (small block of<br />

flats) that reduces your privacy.<br />

Not only are you denied the<br />

right to comment or negotiate,<br />

but you don’t have to be<br />

notified until the last minute<br />

before work begins.<br />

With big impact projects,<br />

like new mines or power stations,<br />

communities and environmental<br />

groups have had<br />

their right to lodge third-party<br />

merit appeals removed. Yet<br />

developers can still appeal<br />

decisions they do not agree<br />

with.<br />

All power is with the Government<br />

and the developers.<br />

<strong>The</strong> people are almost entirely<br />

left out.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Department’s Community<br />

Consultation Plan<br />

includes seminars and community<br />

events, advertising in<br />

social media as well as traditional<br />

outlets and targeted<br />

activities designed to broker<br />

a solution. All this is fine if the<br />

outcome is not determined<br />

before the consultation occurs.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y’re never going to cancel<br />

a road project or halve<br />

the size of a new residential<br />

precinct because the people<br />

object. <strong>The</strong>re might be some<br />

tinkering around the edges<br />

that they’ll trumpet loudly, but<br />

that’s it.<br />

<strong>The</strong> BPN has always had effective<br />

community participation<br />

at the heart of its mission.<br />

We are pleased that some<br />

of the things we have fought<br />

for are being introduced. <strong>The</strong><br />

test for government now is to<br />

ensure that community participation<br />

is more than a boxticking<br />

exercise.<br />

Community voices must be<br />

heard and their views given<br />

genuine weight. <strong>The</strong> Department’s<br />

feedback must show<br />

that “consideration” means<br />

more than reading submissions<br />

or note taking at seminars.<br />

BPN argues that submissions<br />

should be published<br />

and the Department should<br />

give sound reasons as to why<br />

they accept or reject ideas<br />

proposed in the consultation<br />

process. <strong>The</strong>re must be<br />

the option of real change in<br />

response to the public will.<br />

Communities are not afraid<br />

of change but they want to<br />

have some power and agency<br />

about how it happens. It’s<br />

time for government to show<br />

some trust in the judgement of<br />

the people.<br />

Encapsulation not the solution<br />

to Nelson Parade contamination<br />

Encapsulation is not<br />

the right solution for the<br />

Nelson Parade contamination<br />

- with all five main<br />

studies on it since 2007<br />

rejecting this option for<br />

reasons that include the<br />

following:<br />

Health risks – there is no<br />

precedent here or overseas<br />

for encapsulation in a residential<br />

street. So, there’s<br />

no experience to evaluate<br />

health risks.<br />

How can we trust safety<br />

promises when neighbours<br />

have suffered radon gas<br />

build up in their home for<br />

years from neighbouring<br />

government land, which<br />

the government has ignored,<br />

while the EPA has<br />

proven powerless to protect<br />

their safety?<br />

Risks associated with<br />

radioactive material may<br />

be expected to attenuate<br />

over thousands of years.<br />

What are the operational<br />

safety arrangements for<br />

radon gas build up, which<br />

is being vented only metres<br />

from homes?<br />

And there’s also the question<br />

of maintenance, monitoring<br />

and rebuilding of the<br />

cell when the concrete decays?<br />

Experts have raised Intergenerational<br />

concerns –<br />

passing the problem to our<br />

children’s children and to<br />

future councils to resolve.<br />

Experts have also said<br />

the cost of encapsulation<br />

would likely exceed that of<br />

excavation and off-site disposal.<br />

A technically complex,<br />

sloping site and narrow<br />

street may potentially<br />

also result in water run-off<br />

problems.<br />

Experts also anticipate<br />

the likelihood of intense<br />

community opposition.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Hunters Hill<br />

Saturday, 17 <strong>November</strong><br />

with around 3,000 patrons<br />

If we don’t accept encapsulation,<br />

what do we want?<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are many options<br />

for both permanent and<br />

temporary disposal sites.<br />

Primarily we - Nelson<br />

Parade Action Group residents<br />

- want permanent<br />

disposal in the federal facility<br />

when it is established.<br />

<strong>The</strong> first preference of all<br />

experts, residents and the<br />

community is permanent<br />

off-site disposal in a purpose-built,<br />

state-of-theart<br />

facility, which is what<br />

the National Radioactive<br />

Waste Facility will be.<br />

Property NSW told us<br />

that they have accepted<br />

the Nelson Parade contamination<br />

for permanent<br />

storage and it has been<br />

included in their planning.<br />

<strong>The</strong>refore, secondly, we<br />

want temporary, off-site<br />

storage until completion of<br />

the permanent site in approximately<br />

ten years.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are more than 100<br />

temporary storage locations<br />

for radioactive waste<br />

across Australia, all awaiting<br />

completion of the National<br />

Radioactive Waste<br />

Facility. Surely one could<br />

be found for our material.<br />

Temporary storage would<br />

involve removal of all contamination<br />

off site for sorting<br />

and verification and<br />

then storage in ‘bulka’<br />

bags in shipping containers.<br />

Temporary storage has<br />

fewer constraints in geology,<br />

water management and<br />

site selection than permanent<br />

storage.<br />

hard work, work that is important<br />

for any organisation.<br />

Volunteers are the backbone<br />

of organisations and<br />

do a lot without expecting<br />

anything in return and deserve<br />

to be recognised.<br />

We invited the Boronia<br />

people from all walks of life<br />

So why has the govt<br />

chosen the solution of encapsulation<br />

and rejected<br />

all other options and what<br />

criteria have they used for<br />

this decision?<br />

Property NSW ignored its<br />

Minister’s criteria in local<br />

media in March - specifically<br />

“ that the disposal site<br />

had to be geologically stable,<br />

near a major transport<br />

route and not near densely<br />

populated areas.”<br />

Nelson Parade meets<br />

none of these criteria.<br />

Instead, Property NSW<br />

has told us the government<br />

has given then the<br />

criteria to find the solution<br />

with the least political pain<br />

- political criteria, not environmental<br />

criteria.<br />

This is the problem.<br />

Property NSW says it consulted<br />

with the community<br />

and sought residents’<br />

feedback.<br />

In reality they used feedback<br />

from the few who<br />

agreed with them and offered<br />

no evidence they’d<br />

listened to the rest of us.<br />

We need to stand strong<br />

& demand total remediation,<br />

informed by environmental<br />

best practice,<br />

expert advice and policy<br />

and not be persuaded into<br />

accepting an inappropriate<br />

solution, proposed by politicians<br />

for non-scientific<br />

reasons – with ramifications<br />

THE WEEKLY TIMES Miss Eastwood Granny Smith Festival Queen Divya Ahlawat has spoken up for thousands of women<br />

and girls outraged by inadequate hygiene facilities in public toilets across the City of Ryde.<br />

Speaking at a City of<br />

Ryde council meeting<br />

earlier this month, she<br />

stressed the importance<br />

of adequate soap supplies<br />

and proper maintenance of<br />

sanitary dispenser bins in<br />

all council-operated public<br />

toilets.<br />

<strong>The</strong> alternative represented<br />

an unacceptable<br />

hygiene risk, she said.<br />

“We want to ensure that<br />

women can meet their basic<br />

sanitary needs and the<br />

fact that we do not have<br />

these (sanitary items) available<br />

means that women<br />

do not use our facilities,<br />

women who have struggled<br />

with this problem for<br />

far two long,” the recentlycrowned<br />

<strong>2018</strong> <strong>TWT</strong> Miss<br />

Eastwood Granny Smith<br />

Festival Queen told councillors.<br />

“Since we were two<br />

years old we were taught<br />

to wash our hands when<br />

we leave the bathroom but<br />

that is impossible to do at<br />

many public toilets when<br />

there is no soap available.<br />

“Public bathrooms in<br />

Ryde are simply not as<br />

good as they could be.”<br />

Eastwood resident<br />

Natalie Hissey also addressed<br />

councillors on the<br />

issue.<br />

“I’m also alarmed about<br />

the lack of soap and sanitary<br />

facilities and around<br />

70 per cent of these public<br />

amenities have no sanitary<br />

bins,” she said.<br />

“A large proportion<br />

of homeless women use<br />

Where every family is special<br />

these public bathrooms<br />

and tonight councillors can<br />

make a measurable difference<br />

to women’s lives.”<br />

TAFE NSW Meadowbank to be transformed<br />

Meadowbank TAFE is set to be transformed through a groundbreaking<br />

redevelopment project that will establish world class vocational education<br />

and training facilities as part of the planned Meadowbank Education<br />

Precinct.<br />

Minister responsible<br />

or TAFE NSW Adam<br />

arshall and Memer<br />

for Ryde Victor<br />

ominello today anounced<br />

the NSW<br />

overnment will invest<br />

154 million to estabish<br />

a state-of-the-art<br />

raining hub at Meadwbank<br />

TAFE.<br />

Mr Marshall said the<br />

roject was a game<br />

hanger for VET stuents<br />

and would deliver<br />

the next generation<br />

of workers for NSW.<br />

“This $154 million redevelopment<br />

of Meadowbank<br />

TAFE will<br />

deliver world class facilities<br />

for students to<br />

access quality training<br />

in a range of areas critical<br />

to the NSW economy,”<br />

Mr Marshall said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>se new facilities<br />

will be underpinned<br />

by modern technology<br />

and enable practical<br />

training in areas such<br />

as cyber-security, information<br />

technology,<br />

energy and tourism.<br />

“Meadowbank TAFE<br />

will have capacity to<br />

deliver training for up<br />

to 3,000 students at<br />

any one time, ensuring<br />

our State has the next<br />

generation of workers<br />

it needs.”<br />

Mr Dominello said<br />

the project was transformational<br />

and would<br />

deliver on the NSW<br />

public education and<br />

VET infrastructure in<br />

the country, and is being<br />

delivered right here<br />

in our community,” Mr<br />

Dominello said.<br />

“This investment is<br />

transforming Ryde<br />

into an education and<br />

economic powerhouse.<br />

<strong>The</strong> revitalised<br />

Meadowbank TAFE<br />

will provide thousands<br />

of students with the<br />

yde’s Armenians start a Christmas festival<br />

Ryde’s Armenian speaking community starts a<br />

traditional Christmas celebration this week.<br />

Ryde Armenian Christmas Prince and Princess Daniel Harutoonian of Ermington and Lora Ansourian of West Ryde join accomplished<br />

Ryde Armenian dancer Colette Mardirossian in this <strong>TWT</strong> on-the-spot PHOTO at West Ryde Plaza.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are more than<br />

10,000 Armenian speaking<br />

Christians in Ryde<br />

and they traditionally put<br />

up a Christmas tree and<br />

decorate it with fruit, white<br />

doves for peace and golden<br />

bows.<br />

Many Armenians like to<br />

use the three colors of the<br />

Armenian flag - red, orange<br />

and blue on the tree<br />

– and nativity scenes are<br />

popular.<br />

Many are this week preparing<br />

traditional costumes<br />

for the Armenian<br />

community Christmas<br />

festival at Darling Harbour<br />

from noon on Sunday, December<br />

16, which will be<br />

preceded by a celebration<br />

at the Ryde Civic Centre<br />

on December 10 from<br />

11am.<br />

Colette Mardirossian<br />

from Ryde’s Hamazkaine<br />

Armenian Sydney Dance<br />

Company said the Armenian<br />

community will start<br />

to post gifts and letters to<br />

relatives abroad.<br />

“We also phone our relatives<br />

in Armenia and wish<br />

them Shnorhavour Surp<br />

Znoond (Merry Christmas)<br />

although these days it is<br />

common to talk to them<br />

live, on Skype,” Colette<br />

said.<br />

“We start to have huge<br />

family gatherings although<br />

on our Christmas Day,<br />

which is on January 6th, is<br />

very much a religious day<br />

when we go to the Armenian<br />

Apostolic Church.<br />

“Our largest community<br />

celebration will be at Darling<br />

Harbour and we will<br />

dance traditional dances<br />

that go back, well, forever.”<br />

Santa Claus is not an Armenian<br />

tradition but there<br />

is an Armenian legend of a<br />

baboushka (grandmother)<br />

who brings gifts to wellbehaved<br />

children.<br />

<strong>The</strong> baboushka legend<br />

holds that she wanted to<br />

join the three wise men<br />

and present gifts to baby<br />

Jesus but unable to find<br />

them, she gave the gifts<br />

to children in Bethlehem<br />

instead.<br />

During the Soviet era, the<br />

Russians introduced the<br />

figure of Grandfather Frost<br />

to Armenia.<br />

City of Ryde Councillor<br />

Sarkis Yedelian OAM said<br />

the traditional Armenian<br />

fruit, the pomegranite, is<br />

a popular addition to the<br />

Christmas feast.<br />

“Many Armenians grow<br />

their own pomegranite’s in<br />

their backyards, right here<br />

in Ryde,” he said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>se are served in a<br />

bowl on the Christmas table<br />

but you can also celebrate<br />

Christmas drinking<br />

pomegranite nectar.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> week before Christmas,<br />

some Armenians<br />

abstain from eating meat.<br />

Instead they eat traditional<br />

braided bread, rice pilaf,<br />

figs, baklava, fresh vegetables<br />

and rice pudding.<br />

A popular dish called<br />

“anoushabour” is a Christmas<br />

pudding made from<br />

wheat, berries and apricots.<br />

On Christmas Eve, Armenians<br />

in Armenia eat a<br />

traditional fish dish called<br />

“ishkhanatsoog” (princely<br />

trout) which is often followed<br />

with a dessert called<br />

“rojik,” which features<br />

whole walnuts encased in<br />

grape jelly and hanging on<br />

a string.<br />

In the days after Christmas<br />

a traditional Armenian<br />

lamb and rice meal called a<br />

“poulgeur pilav” is served.<br />

Ryde MP Victor Dominello<br />

“It was a wonderful opportunity<br />

for locals to experience<br />

and celebrate Diwali,”<br />

Mr Dominello said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> festival provided<br />

fun children’s activities,<br />

food, merchandise stalls<br />

and recognises the outstanding<br />

Eastwood Community News<br />

By Clr Dr PETER KIM<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are two major Korean festivals in<br />

Sydney. May’s “Korean Day Festival” at<br />

Darling Harbour which is sponsored and<br />

organised by the Korean Government.<br />

<strong>The</strong> second and more important event<br />

is the “Korean Festival” in Eastwood<br />

which is a community festival organised<br />

by the Korean community under the leadership<br />

of the Korean Society of Sydney.<br />

Eastwood hosted Korean Festival on October<br />

27, <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

It is a special event because it does not<br />

correspond to the Korean national festival.<br />

It is an event to celebrate the “living<br />

Korean culture” in Sydney.<br />

It is an occasion where Koreans from all<br />

different backgrounds gather in one place<br />

to celebrate their Korean ethnicity within<br />

big multicultural Australia.<br />

Korean Festival was first held 25 years<br />

ago in Campsie. 25 years ago most Korean<br />

migrants gathered in Campsie. Since<br />

then the Koreans have moved away from<br />

Campsie to other suburbs such as the<br />

City of Ryde which houses the most number<br />

of Korean Australian citizens in Australia.<br />

For the next four years, Eastwood will<br />

hold the Korean Festivals.<br />

It is an excellent opportunity for the<br />

Koreans to harmonise with the Australian<br />

and other ethnic communities. <strong>The</strong>re<br />

were over 7000 visitors attending the Korean<br />

Festival and the numbers are growing<br />

each year. It is good to see such event<br />

in Eastwood, the heart of multiculturalism<br />

in the City of Ryde.<br />

Early skin cancer test<br />

can save your life!<br />

John is in his 40’s. He visited Eastwood Skin<br />

Cancer Clinic last week for a routine annual<br />

skin check. He was unable to find a local bulk<br />

billing skin cancer clinic. Specialist dermatologist<br />

had a long waiting list and it was costly.<br />

John did not have any<br />

skin cancers in the past<br />

and none that was running<br />

in his family. However,<br />

John did have a fair skin,<br />

blue eyes and light hair<br />

colour. He migrated to<br />

Australia from Northern<br />

Europe when he was 15.<br />

He does have a history of<br />

sunburns and he does and<br />

did enjoy sun exposure.<br />

John had a routine skin<br />

cancer check. His body<br />

was stripped down to his<br />

underpants. With the help<br />

of a hand held maggylamp<br />

- magnification glass<br />

with attached lightsource,<br />

Dr Kim visually scanned<br />

the skin all over. <strong>The</strong><br />

doctor noticed a small<br />

freckle near John’s right<br />

eyebrow. John did notice<br />

that freckle and then he<br />

realised that the freckle<br />

used to be a tiny spot. But<br />

it was now 15mm wide.<br />

<strong>The</strong> spot was asymmetrical,<br />

borders were irregular,<br />

and instead of being<br />

one brown colour it had<br />

two distinct colours. It<br />

was flat. It was not itchy<br />

or had any symptoms.<br />

But it was definitely getting<br />

bigger. This freckle<br />

had a multiple suspicious<br />

feature.<br />

Doctor Kim suggested<br />

a biopsy. A single pinprick<br />

of local anaesthesia<br />

was given. 2mm<br />

skin was removed and<br />

sent for pathology test.<br />

<strong>The</strong> test came back as<br />

an early stage melanoma<br />

called Lentigo maligna.<br />

John was given a phone<br />

call. And he was sent to<br />

the melanoma unit for<br />

further treatment. This<br />

melanoma was diagnosed<br />

very early. And these early<br />

melanomas are curable.<br />

save your life!”<br />

MAYOR’S COMMUNITY MESSAGE<br />

It was great to join the community at Meadowbank Park on<br />

18 <strong>November</strong> for the Diwali Fusion Festival of Ryde<br />

City of Ryde reducing its carbon footprint<br />

While politicians at a federal level continue to drag their<br />

heels on tackling climate change, I can happily report that<br />

the City of Ryde is continuing to work hard to keep its carbon<br />

emissions in check.<br />

In 2017/18, Council’s total greenhouse emissions were 10.4%<br />

lower than emissions for the previous 12-month period.<br />

<strong>The</strong> decrease was largely due to lighting upgrades that<br />

included the installation of energy-efficient LEDs across a<br />

number of facilities.<br />

In addition, Council has been busy<br />

investing in renewable energy.<br />

Recently, the largest solar harvesting<br />

power station has been installed at<br />

the Ryde Aquatic and Leisure Centre<br />

(RALC). This project has seen the<br />

installation of 826 solar panels on the<br />

RALC’s roof, which will generate more<br />

than 300 kilowatts and save close to<br />

66 equivalent tonnes of greenhouse<br />

gas emissions each year.<br />

<strong>The</strong> new solar facility at the RALC<br />

follows the installation of a new solar<br />

power system at Eastwood Hall and a<br />

solar harvesting system has also been<br />

introduced at North Ryde Library.<br />

Stay tuned for more announcements in<br />

this space as the City of Ryde continues<br />

to reduce its carbon footprint.<br />

Last Mayor’s Morning Tea for<br />

<strong>2018</strong> this Saturday<br />

As we approach the end of the year,<br />

I am hosting the last Mayor’s Morning<br />

Tea for <strong>2018</strong> this Saturday at<br />

Anzac Park in West Ryde.<br />

I have found all of the Mayor’s Morning<br />

Teas staged throughout the year to be<br />

an invaluable source of information<br />

and a great way to hear from residents<br />

about the issues that are impacting<br />

them.<br />

As usual there will be a jumping castle<br />

and face painting at Anzac Park to keep<br />

the kids entertained and a coffee van<br />

on location for the adults.<br />

See you all there.<br />

Eastwood Library reopens<br />

next week<br />

A special event will be held at<br />

Eastwood Library next week to<br />

celebrate its reopening.<br />

<strong>The</strong> library has been closed for<br />

two weeks to allow for scheduled<br />

maintenance and upgrade works to be<br />

undertaken.<br />

As part of the reopening, members<br />

of the community will be able to view<br />

the ‘<strong>The</strong>n and Now’ Exhibition which<br />

showcases images of Eastwood that<br />

date back to the early 1900s.<br />

<strong>The</strong> library’s new Digital Reading Table<br />

will also be available to use, providing<br />

access to thousands of international<br />

newspapers and magazines in a variety<br />

of languages. Morning tea will also be<br />

served.<br />

<strong>The</strong> celebration of the Eastwood Library<br />

reopening will take place from 10.00am<br />

– 11.30am on Wednesday, 5 December.<br />

Hunters Hill threatens heritage protection of entire municipality<br />

HUNTERS HILL Council has threatened to<br />

consider listing its entire municipality as a<br />

heritage protection area unless the State<br />

Government gives ratepayers a street by<br />

street right to reject private certifiers.<br />

About three-quarters<br />

of the municipality has<br />

heritage protection<br />

but Gladesville, Boronia<br />

Park and streets<br />

around St Joey’s College<br />

are not heritage<br />

protected and ratepayers<br />

in these areas are<br />

furious about developers’<br />

use of certifiers to<br />

approve new homes<br />

that faced rejection by<br />

the Council under previous<br />

planning laws.<br />

Monday night’s council<br />

meeting saw councillors<br />

vote by 5 - 2<br />

to issue the heritage<br />

ultimatum to Planning<br />

Minister and Lane<br />

Cove MP Anthony<br />

Roberts.<br />

Council is warning<br />

that unless ratepayers<br />

are given the option to<br />

suspend the powers of<br />

private certifiers in affected<br />

areas by March<br />

1, it will act.<br />

Debate on the issue<br />

arose from ratepayer<br />

concerns that a private<br />

certifier had approved<br />

a two-storey home<br />

at 18 Milling Street,<br />

near the college, without<br />

an opportunity for<br />

neighbours to object<br />

on privacy or heritage<br />

grounds.<br />

Councillor Jim<br />

Sanderson proposed<br />

the ultimatum and accused<br />

the government<br />

of using private certifier<br />

approvals to silence<br />

objecting neighbours.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> compliant development<br />

process has<br />

the power to undermine<br />

all our controls ..<br />

clearly, individuals are<br />

not having any luck<br />

fighting certifiers,” he<br />

said.<br />

Councillor Ross Williams<br />

agreed, saying<br />

“private certifier compliance<br />

approval has<br />

taken planning powers<br />

away from the council<br />

and the community<br />

and put them into the<br />

hands of developers.”<br />

Liberal Clr Zac Miles<br />

and Deputy Mayor<br />

Ben Collins (Lib) voted<br />

against the motion.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> Department of<br />

Planning is simply not<br />

going to issue a random<br />

ban (on private<br />

certifiers) it is just not<br />

going to happen,” Clr<br />

Miles said.<br />

Like Clr Miles, his<br />

colleague Clr Collins<br />

supported an alternative<br />

motion to seek<br />

Mr Robert’s support<br />

to reform private certifier<br />

approvals in streets<br />

with low density homes<br />

and heritage properties.<br />

<strong>The</strong>y made the point<br />

that Clr Sanderson’s<br />

motion was too late to<br />

help Milling Street residents<br />

and supporters<br />

like Matt Fehon, who<br />

argued the approved<br />

height of the 18 Milling<br />

Street home impacted<br />

privacy.<br />

“This structure now<br />

towers and looks into<br />

our yards,” he said.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>re are young<br />

This development at 18 Milling Street sparked a council threat against the state government on Monday night. <strong>TWT</strong> on-the-spot PHOTO<br />

children and it is critical<br />

their privacy is protected,<br />

this is quite distressing.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> system has<br />

failed us.”<br />

Neighbour John Baird<br />

suggested the private<br />

certifier had approved<br />

a number of noncompliant<br />

aspects of<br />

the development but<br />

Acting Group Manager<br />

(Service Delivery)<br />

Steve Kourepis said a<br />

current council investigation<br />

had not found a<br />

breach.<br />

“People have got<br />

rights and we need to<br />

have evidence before<br />

we can take action,”<br />

Mr Kourepis said.<br />

Mr Roberts told <strong>The</strong><br />

<strong>Weekly</strong> <strong>Times</strong> there<br />

was an ongoing review<br />

of the private certifier<br />

approval system with<br />

the aim to identify and<br />

act on allegedly unscrupulous<br />

private certifiers.<br />

“<strong>The</strong>se private certifiers<br />

have not been held<br />

to account and they<br />

should be,” Deputy<br />

Mayor Collins said.<br />

Hunters Hill Council<br />

has previously attempted<br />

to apply heritage<br />

protection to the<br />

whole of the municipality<br />

but on each occasion<br />

has been thwarted<br />

by governments.<br />

Free solar panels delivered for local community clubs<br />

<strong>The</strong> recent installation of free solar power panels at<br />

local not-for-profit community organisations has set<br />

them up for huge savings on their power bills, which<br />

will allow them to re-invest back into their community.<br />

Federal Member<br />

for Bennelong John<br />

Alexander OAM MP<br />

fought hard to deliver<br />

Bennelong’s fair share<br />

of the Solar Communities<br />

Grant Program.<br />

Mr Alexander said:<br />

“I’m always working<br />

hard to deliver for our<br />

local community. It<br />

gives me great pleasure<br />

to see these local<br />

community groups<br />

benefit from this initiative.<br />

“I was thrilled to<br />

visit Brush Park Bowling<br />

Club and inspect<br />

the new installation.<br />

<strong>The</strong> members were<br />

quite excited about<br />

the savings they’ll<br />

get. <strong>The</strong>y also put on<br />

a wonderfully hospitable<br />

morning tea, if<br />

you’re looking for a<br />

friendly bowls club<br />

to join, I highly recommend<br />

Brush Park<br />

Bowling Club!”<br />

Brush Park’s Advisory<br />

Committee<br />

member Geoff Young<br />

said: “We’re looking<br />

forward to fast tracking<br />

some much needed<br />

upgrades with the<br />

savings, and also using<br />

the smart meter to<br />

feed power back into<br />

the grid on our nonbowling<br />

days, where<br />

we’ll earn money on<br />

top of the savings. It’s<br />

good for us, the community,<br />

and also good<br />

for the environment.”<br />

Other local community<br />

groups to have<br />

had free solar power<br />

panels installed include:<br />

Denistone<br />

City of Parramatta, Discover Parramatta<br />

Carols in the Park will be held at <strong>The</strong> Crescent in Parramatta<br />

Park on Saturday, December 15 from 6.30pm until 8.30pm.<br />

Hosted by Guy and Jules Sebastian,<br />

Carols in the Crescent will feature<br />

some of the finest voices in the country<br />

belting out all-time favourite festive<br />

songs.<br />

“Bring a picnic rug, gather your family<br />

and friends and get your singing voices<br />

ready to join in on the Christmas fun<br />

when Parramatta hosts this free, allstar<br />

carols concert for the community,”<br />

Lord Mayor Andrew Wilson said.<br />

“And don’t miss a festive appearance<br />

from Santa and a grumpy Christmas<br />

Grinch character.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> event will include children’s rides<br />

and food stalls.<br />

“If you are keen to make a difference<br />

while having fun, support the good<br />

work of <strong>The</strong> Sebastian Foundation<br />

by making a donation on the night, to<br />

help the Foundation deliver meaningful<br />

change to some of the more vulnerable<br />

in the community.”<br />

This event is a collaboration between<br />

City of Parramatta, <strong>The</strong> Sebastian<br />

Foundation and Parramatta Park Trust.<br />

Carols in the Park is a popular<br />

family event in Parramatta.


Putney Bowling Club appeals for a helping hand<br />

PUTNEY BOWLING CLUB could receive a helping hand from City of Ryde gardeners<br />

funded by a grant from Lane Cove MP Anthony Roberts.<br />

Council staff will meet with<br />

club officials to discuss options<br />

for a grant funded clean up<br />

and beautification of the club’s<br />

grounds after a request was<br />

made to last Tuesday night’s<br />

council meeting from club stalwarts<br />

Ron Ryan and Dorian<br />

Guardala.<br />

“<strong>The</strong> beautification work we<br />

need is beyond the best efforts<br />

of our volunteers,” Mr Ryan<br />

said.<br />

Councillor Roy Maggio (Ind)<br />

Lane Cove MP Anthony Roberts transformed into Santa Klaus around<br />

Christmas Time last year at the Putney Bowling Club - wil he be makng<br />

a return? <strong>TWT</strong> On-the-Spot PHOTO<br />

and Clr Trenton Brown (Lib)<br />

spoke in favour of the club’s<br />

request, because the site is<br />

owned by City of Ryde and<br />

leased to the club.<br />

“What I am asking for and all I<br />

am asking for is that we assist<br />

the club to beautify the City of<br />

Ryde and to source the funds<br />

to do it from our local MP,” Clr<br />

Maggio said.<br />

Councillor Brown said the City<br />

of Ryde shouldn’t expect elderly<br />

bowlers to be digging up<br />

weeds.<br />

“It is a community club and<br />

like a lot of bowling clubs it is<br />

favoured by elderly members<br />

from our community,” he said.<br />

“At their age they cannot be<br />

weeding and we cannot ask<br />

them to get out there with a<br />

whipper snipper.”<br />

Questions asked by Clr Dr<br />

Peter Kim (Labor) revealed that<br />

the club’s lease does, in fact,<br />

require the club to upkeep the<br />

grounds.<br />

“Are we asking ratepayers<br />

to (spend money) to beautify<br />

a bowling club, a private business,<br />

a leasee ?”<br />

‘‘We could open a floodgate by<br />

doing this.”<br />

Liberal Chris Moujalli took up<br />

the point.<br />

“If someone has agreed in a<br />

lease to maintain the upkeep<br />

they should keep the agreement<br />

and the points made by Clr Kim<br />

are entirely correct,” he said.<br />

“But I would be happy for our<br />

staff to assist, with funding.”<br />

City of Ryde Director (City<br />

Works) Wayne Rylands it is possible<br />

for his staff to assist and<br />

to even offer design assistance<br />

while Clr Sarkis Yedelian OAM<br />

(Lib) said it is the City of Ryde’s<br />

duty to assist.<br />

Lane Cove MP Anthony Roberts<br />

is expected to receive a letter<br />

requesting a grant.<br />

WHAT CAN I BUILD analyses property data, demystifies government<br />

legislation and explores development potential in a custom report.<br />

Specialising in low to medium residential housing.<br />

"My brother and I have owned an investment rental property in<br />

Ermington for over 10 years.<br />

With the gentrification of Parramatta and the massive<br />

infrastructure developments in the area, we know our<br />

unrenovated three-bedder on a large parcel of land with<br />

potential water views is ripe for redevelopment. We are not ready<br />

to engage an architect to produce a DA yet, however, we were<br />

intrigued to know what we could build, how much it would cost,<br />

and the potential resale value.<br />

Neither of us have the aptitude to wade through hundreds of<br />

pages of Parramatta council DCP and LEP legislation, let alone<br />

the time. I'm busy with my job and my brother is equally busy with<br />

work and raising his family with his wife.<br />

In less than three weeks we received our customised<br />

whatcani.build report - and it answered all our questions and<br />

more.<br />

We now know we can develop a duplex, leveraging the water<br />

views, which is not possible with the house as it is. Furthermore,<br />

when we are ready, we have insight into the build costs, standard<br />

to premium, and can compare this to what similar developed<br />

properties are selling for. A real crystal balll"<br />

Negative Gearing<br />

Is it a thing of the past?<br />

But anyway, does it<br />

mean that we need to<br />

be doing a few things<br />

now, in case things will<br />

change?<br />

In a bid to repair our<br />

Budget issues, Chris<br />

would like to stamp<br />

outincome-splittingthat’s<br />

possible with discretionary/family<br />

trusts.<br />

Such tactics aren’t<br />

currently available for<br />

employees, or particular<br />

industries like medical<br />

professionals and<br />

IT professionals where<br />

it’s deemed they’re effectively<br />

sole traders<br />

(known as ‘personal<br />

exertion rules’).<br />

Changingnegative<br />

gearing and reducing<br />

the CGT exemption is<br />

also on the cards.<br />

Negative gearing allows<br />

us to reduce our<br />

taxable income by applying<br />

the loss from our<br />

investments. It is a form<br />

of financial leverage.<br />

Where a loan is taken<br />

to acquire residential<br />

property (normally for<br />

104%), the interest cost<br />

and other deductions<br />

like depreciation and<br />

On a sprawling 13<strong>28</strong>sqm block with 19m frontage<br />

value is big. Currently, a well-presented family home<br />

Kathleen Synnott 0414 818 081<br />

with Jason Khoury<br />

Earlier in the year I was chatting with<br />

Labor’s Chris Bowen, possibly our next<br />

Federal Treasurer. To his credit, his tax<br />

plan has been transparentlyon the table<br />

for a couple of years.<br />

For someone on a<br />

marginal tax bracket<br />

of 45%, who makes<br />

an annual loss of<br />

$20,000 by holding an<br />

investment home, gets<br />

$9,000 back at tax time.<br />

Not bad.<br />

So if the Shorten Government<br />

get in next<br />

year, they want to deal<br />

with housing affordability<br />

and reclaiming tax<br />

revenue by removing<br />

the ability to negatively<br />

gear.<br />

This will mean that<br />

holding onto an investment<br />

property will get<br />

a whole lot more expensive,<br />

particularly for<br />

high income earners<br />

who have the most to<br />

lose.<br />

Here are some important<br />

things though.<br />

<strong>The</strong> construction industry<br />

shouldn’t be affected<br />

because negative<br />

gearing will still be<br />

allowed on brand new<br />

investment housing<br />

stock.<br />

<strong>The</strong> other important<br />

thing is that the ALP<br />

have made it clear that<br />

the changes will not be<br />

retrospective<br />

Rules for existing<br />

set-ups/invest-<br />

Our barefoot broker, Jason Khoury, was a candidate for the seat of Drummoyne in the<br />

2015 State Election …no news yet about next year!<br />

ment properties are to<br />

be‘grandfathered’ - so<br />

no change for those of<br />

you who have already<br />

made investment decisions<br />

based on the<br />

current rules.So that’s<br />

cool.<br />

Some are buying investment<br />

properties<br />

now, just in case. Par-<br />

3<br />

ticularly those who seek<br />

properties with potential<br />

high gains but low<br />

returns, to get on the<br />

negative gearing train<br />

while it’s still around.<br />

This could be<br />

worthwhile,if the investment<br />

also ticks all<br />

the other boxes too.As<br />

our clients know too<br />

2<br />

3<br />

2<br />

well, there are excellent<br />

opportunities with<br />

second-hand properties<br />

with potential super-profits<br />

achievable<br />

through forthcoming<br />

zoning changes.<br />

It’s hard for me to<br />

write that this is a<br />

sound strategy, but<br />

I can tell you that I<br />

personally would like<br />

another investment<br />

property with ‘negative<br />

gearing rights” prior to<br />

a potential change in<br />

Government so I’m on<br />

the hunt.<br />

You must be thinking<br />

whose name to buy the<br />

property in too. Trusts<br />

are great, but keep in<br />

mindland tax-thresholds<br />

– it’s the silent killer.<br />

And remember, what<br />

is negatively geared<br />

at first generally turns<br />

into positive gearing<br />

2<br />

2<br />

after 8 or so years, as<br />

inflation brings rents<br />

up, whereas your loan<br />

repayments will always<br />

‘cover’ inflation.<br />

<strong>The</strong>re are still people<br />

out there paying over<br />

4% for their home and<br />

investment loans.Shaving<br />

half a percent off<br />

your rate is probably<br />

the first step for most,<br />

before worrying about<br />

future taxation consequences<br />

or anything<br />

else.<br />

St George, CBA and<br />

just about all the banks<br />

are paying new customers<br />

to refinance to<br />

them.<br />

Geez, if your new loan<br />

can be over $700K, we<br />

can arrange a refinance<br />

rebate of $3,500. Fortune<br />

favours those who<br />

aren’t too scared to call<br />

a mortgage broker.<br />

On an extremely windy and turbulent day, eight courageous North Ryde<br />

RSL women bowlers played the Final of the Club Fours championship.<br />

Despite the horrid weather at end 21 the score was 15 all so another end<br />

had to be played. <strong>The</strong> final winners 16/15 were Beryl McClintock, June<br />

Bax, Pat Saunders and Elaine Marsden (skip) against Lorna Humphreys,<br />

Shirley Leabeater, Slavica Beram and Ivy Hitchens( skip). This was the<br />

final Championship for the club for <strong>2018</strong>.<br />

Belle Property’s Michael Gallina, drawing the Gladesville Sporties jackpot triples last Wednesday.<br />

Two teams just missed out. <strong>The</strong> money jackpots again next week. President Vic Tagg annouced<br />

‘night bowls under lights’ starts at Sporties, <strong>November</strong> 27, continues every Tuesday night before<br />

Christmas. It is a pairs competition. Teams called at 6.45 pm game starts at 7.pm. Games are<br />

15 ends. Men and women welcome to come along and enjoy the Sporties atmosphere. Contact<br />

Donna Jay (Ivy’s daughter), Ivy HItchens (finalist), Carmel Candrick (Club<br />

Treasurer) and Anne Richardson President (pictured L to R). On the evening<br />

of <strong>November</strong> 22, the members of North Ryde RSL WBC were thrilled<br />

when Ivy HItchens, was placed among only three finalists across NSW in<br />

the category of Club Official of the Year at the Night of Champions event<br />

held at Bankstown Sports Club. Our four photographic subjects attended<br />

the evening to support Ivy in this fabulous achievement. It was an exciting<br />

evening and wonderful to be part of a 240 person celebration of the<br />

game of bowls.<br />

North Ryde RSL Triples Champs: Peter Lavery, Andrew Woods, Steve Palmer downed 30-10 by<br />

new North RSL BC Champions Tom Pisano, Terry Sweeney and Marshal Collie. Steve’s team was<br />

assembled at the very last minute before and they did well to make the finals but a fairy tale ending<br />

alluded them.

Hot shot Healy is<br />

Player of Twenty20<br />

AUSTRALIAN cricket golden girls Alyssa Healy and<br />

Ellyse Perry have stamped themselves in unique company.<br />

<strong>The</strong> decorated superstars<br />

covered themselves<br />

in glory last<br />

weekend in the Caribbean<br />

by helping the<br />

Southern Stars bring<br />

home a fourth Women’s<br />

ICC World Twenty20<br />

championship trophy.<br />

Both played key roles<br />

in the Aussies crushing<br />

eight wicket win over<br />

England in the final at Sir<br />

Vivian Richards Cricket<br />

Ground in Antigua -<br />

achieving a rare international<br />

sporting feat.<br />

Former Epping resident<br />

Healy and dual international<br />

Perry, who<br />

are products of the Sydney<br />

Tigers Cricket Club<br />

based at Drummoyne,<br />

are the only cricketers to<br />

have figured in all four of<br />

Australia’s World<br />

Exciting all rounder<br />

Ashleigh Gardner earned<br />

the Player of the Final<br />

award - grabbing 3-22<br />

with the ball as the dominant<br />

Aussies skittled<br />

England for 105 before<br />

posting an unbeaten 33<br />

and combining with skipper<br />

Meg Lanning (<strong>28</strong> not<br />

out) to steer the Aussies<br />

(2-106) to an emphatic title<br />

victory.<br />

<strong>The</strong> flamboyant Healy<br />

capped a memorable<br />

<strong>2018</strong> when she was<br />

named Player of the<br />

Tournament.<br />

She proved the lynchpin<br />

of Australia’s batting and<br />

finished the tournament’s<br />

top scorer with 225 runs<br />

at an average of 56.25<br />

and strike rate of 144.23.<br />

<strong>The</strong> <strong>28</strong> year old Australian<br />

keeper and dashing<br />

opener finished with<br />

four Player of the Match<br />

awards and scores of 48<br />

against Pakistan; 56 not<br />

out against Ireland; 53<br />

against New Zealand; 46<br />

in the semi final win over<br />

the West Indies and 22 in<br />

the final against England.<br />

Perry reached a record<br />

breaking milestone in<br />

the Cup final when she<br />

trapped England’s Nat<br />

Sciver in front to become<br />

the first Australian and<br />

second female in the<br />

world to take 100 wickets<br />

MEANWHILE Sydney<br />

Cricket Club squandered<br />

an opportunity to consolidate<br />

their lead in the<br />

<strong>2018</strong>-19 NSW Premier<br />

Cricket mens first grade<br />

competition.<br />

<strong>The</strong> Tigers suffered<br />

a first innings loss to<br />

Sutherland last Saturday<br />

at Glenn McGrath Oval<br />

and have now slipped to<br />

second spot on 26 points<br />

behind outright leaders<br />

Sydney University (27).<br />

Promising leg-spinner<br />

Daniel Fallins proved the<br />

architect for the Sharks<br />

with a five wicket haul<br />

that thwarted the visitors’<br />

bid for victory.<br />

Resuming at 7-<strong>28</strong>5, the<br />

Sutherland side added 36<br />

runs in the morning session<br />

to post a total of 321<br />

before dismissing the Tigers<br />

for 226.<br />

Fallins, 22, who took six<br />

wickets in his first class<br />

debut for the Cricket<br />

Talented Sydney opener<br />

Matthew Rodgers continued<br />

his purple form patch<br />

with a stylish knock of 59<br />

while all rounder Nic Bills<br />

(48 not out), skipper Dan<br />

Smith (25) and keeper<br />

Beau McClintock also<br />

Sydney FC looking<br />

to bolster firepower<br />

SYDNEY FC is looking to lift its game in front of goal after its recent<br />

slim pickings in the goal-scoring department during the early stages of its<br />

<strong>2018</strong>/19 A-League campaign.<br />

Coach Steve Corica is on<br />

the lookout for a speedy<br />

striker that can make a habit<br />

of finding the back of the<br />

net - preferably on board<br />

with the Sky Blues in times<br />

for the start of his side’s<br />

Asian Champions League<br />

campaign.<br />

Sydney FC’s early unbeaten<br />

run came to a grinding<br />

halt on the weekend when<br />

its “Mexican” rivals Melbourne<br />

Victory, took out the<br />

first ‘Big Blue’ of the season<br />

2-1.<br />

On a positive note - a<br />

sell-out bumper crowd of<br />

19,081 got acquainted with<br />

temporary home ground,<br />

Jubilee Stadium in Kogarah.<br />

While the Sky Blues are<br />

pulling their weight in possession,<br />

Corica conceded<br />

his side needed to threaten<br />

its opponents in attack<br />

much more, revealing he’s<br />

in the hunt for another goal<br />

poacher.<br />

“We would’ve like to have<br />

threatened more. I think we<br />

threatened a lot more than<br />

what they did. <strong>The</strong> scoreline<br />

doesn’t show that,” Corica<br />

said.<br />

And while the A-League’s<br />

title heavyweight still boasts<br />

a goal difference that ranks<br />

it among the top handful of<br />

sides in this season’s competition,<br />

Corica has kept a<br />

keen eye on adding to his<br />

strike force.<br />

<strong>The</strong> club hasn’t yet signed<br />

a replacement for Trent Buhagiar,<br />

who rocketed into<br />

first-team contention during<br />

the pre-season but tragically<br />

fell victim to an ACL injury<br />

on the eve of round one.<br />

Buhagiar led the team’s<br />

goalscoring tally during the<br />

FFA Cup, while star import<br />

Siem de Jong has also had<br />

to settle for an extended<br />

stint on the sideline due to<br />

a hamstring injuryalso remains<br />

sidelined with a hamstring<br />

injury.<br />

“We’ve got a little bit of<br />

time before January, but<br />

we’ve already started looking<br />

and there’s a few options<br />

at the moment,” Corica<br />

said.<br />

“Buhagiar… was a big<br />

threat with his pace. If we<br />

can find someone like that,<br />

that’d be great,” Corica<br />

said, refusing to make excuses<br />

for his team’s second<br />

straight loss to their arch<br />

rivals.<br />

And he insisted Jop Van<br />

Der Linden would learn<br />

from the “brainsnap” that<br />

resulted in the penalty that<br />

ultimately eventual gamewinner.<br />

<strong>The</strong> pressure will be on<br />

the Sky Blues to get back<br />

into winning mode when it<br />

travels up the F3 for Saturday’s<br />

away clash with<br />

bottom-of-the-table Central<br />

Coast Mariners.<br />
