The Moorabool Shire was hit with wild fire over the
weekend that blazed through more than 4600 hectares of
land, destroying 12 homes and 30 sheds.
Residents from Scotsburn, Elaine, Mount Doran, Clarendon,
and Durham Lead were forced to flee their homes as Victorian
firefighters battled the blaze in extreme weather conditions.
The CFA have confirmed 12 houses in total were destroyed;
Scotsburn (six), Clarendon (three), Durham Lead (two) and
Elaine (one), with another four damaged to the point of being
uninhabitable.
A total of 1030 sheep and five horses died at Narmbool
the 2000-hectare property located at Elaine and owned and
operated by Sovereign Hill.
A CFA spokesperson said they were unable to confirm what
ignited the fire, however it was believed to have started on
private land.
The fast-moving blaze began on Finns Road in Scotsburn on
Saturday afternoon.
At 10pm that evening, more than 150 fearful residents
gathered in the Buninyong Town Hall for a community
meeting.
Buninyong police officer, Peter Anderson said a good
turnout showed how strong the community was.
We are going to need that strength over the next couple of
days, he said.
A Relief Centre in Ballan was established by the Moorabool
Shire Council on Saturday evening, before a second Relief
Centre was opened at Buninyong the following morning.
Moorabool Shire Council CEO Rob Croxford said the
decision to set up the relief centres came at the request of the
Incident Control Centre.
In hindsight it may have been prudent to have Buninyong
up earlier, but to resource two centres late Saturday night
would have been impossible. Ballan was out of harms way,
he said.
The City of Ballarat offered assistance and have been a
significant contributor from Sunday on. We will put out
requests to other neighbouring shires and to the State
Government for support in coming days.
With 523 firefighters, 69 tankers and three bulldozers
deployed over two days, the blaze was brought under control
by 8pm on Sunday after a welcome cool change arrived, with
crews continuing to patrol the area through the evening.
Golden Plains Shire Council failed to respond to questions
regarding their involvement and assistance with the fires,
emergency service crews and the efforts to engage with the
Moorabool Shire council.

Half a town of
fatty boombas
By Jessica Howard
Fat, plump, stout, large,
chunky, call it what you like
but new health data has revealed more than half of the
adult population in Bacchus
Marsh is considered overweight and obese.
A comprehensive report by
Victoria University and Torrens University has revealed
that 69 per cent of Bacchus
Marshs adult population is
overweight, putting them at
risk of diabetes, heart disease and cancer.
The report also showed that
more than 20 per cent of
adults in Bacchus Marsh are
daily smokers, 33 per cent
suffer from high cholesterol
and 23 per cent have high
blood pressure.
Close to 15 per cent of people also confessed to having
risky drinking habits.
Australians deserve a
healthier future. We can and
must do better.

Cobra girls become
cat women
By Jessica Howard
Two Bacchus Marsh footballers have been named in the VFL
Womens pre-season squad for the Geelong Cats.
Abbey Bertram and Emily Crawford were selected out of 160
females following a trial day held in Geelong last month.
The pre-season squad was selected by the VFL Womens
coaching panel, led by senior coach Paul Hood, and includes
women from Geelong, Bacchus Marsh, Kew and Sunbury.
The 42-member squad will commence their training at
Simmonds Stadium on Tuesday (December 29) before being
narrowed down to a 30-member team ahead of the 2017
season.
In a statement released by the Geelong Cats, VFL coach Paul
Hood said with so much talent, the squad selection was a
tough exercise.
The day was such a success, we had almost 160 women turn
out so its been a difficult exercise cutting the squad down to
just 42 but we are really pleased with the calibre of athletes
we have selected.
In other news, Bacchus Marsh womens football coach
Hayley Gossow was selected as part of the Collingwood
Womens AFL Coaching Group.
BMFC Womens Coordinator Rod Bertram said it was a great
result for the Cobras.
Pre-season has commenced for the BMFC women, with
training held at the rear oval of Maddingley Park on Monday
and Wednesday from 6pm.

Disgusting
dumpers
By Kate Taylor
Rubbish
being
dumped
along
Moorabool railway lines may soon be a
thing of the past.
West Ward Councillor Tom Sullivan
raised the issue in urgent business at
the December 7 council meeting in
Bacchus Marsh, calling on council to
explore ways to address the issue.
I just asked the question about could
we liaise with VicTrack about not
allowing the people to dump rubbish
on the railway land theres really easy
access to it, so could we put up bollards
or something, just to restrict it, Cr
Sullivan said after the meeting.
The people dumping it are
opportunists, arent they? They drive
down and dump it but if they cant get
access, then that would restrict illegal
dumping.
He said the rubbish dumped includes
mattresses and old TVs.
Its just disgusting, and the people
who do it are disgusting in my view.
Its just the ease of access; they can
drive their car and trailer in and dump
it and take off. But if they cant get
access, then they cant do it.
I just really want a casual conversation
with VicTrack to see if they have
something practical that might assist.
People arent going to carry their TV 500
metres in to dump it and take off if they
cant get access.
At the meeting, CEO Rob Croxford
confirmed he would write to VicTrack.

Dear Editor,
Moorabool Shire Council is
about to tear up and rebuild
the whole of Cairns Drive,
Darley.
The pavement has had a few
shrinkage cracks in it and a
few patches over the years
but with some relatively
small on-going attention, it
will last another 30 years.
There are so many other
urgent needs that could be
dealt with using the money
it will cost to rebuild this
not insignificant roadway.
I wonder if residents have
been consulted about this
proposal? I doubt this is being done as a result of any
complaints. The disruption
to the whole of the DARLEY
neighbourhood will be horrific, let alone the massive

Auction levels

2015 figures.
Auction volumes also increased in the nearby Geelong suburb of Highton,
with 82 auctions held up
from 76 for the same period
last year.
Meanwhile, vendors who
auctioned their homes in
East Geelong and Herne Hill
this year saw strong success
rates. In East Geelong, 52
homes went under the hammer with 40 selling, delivering a clearance rate of 77 per
cent. While in Herne Hill, 25
homes were auctioned with
20 selling a clearance rate
of 80 per cent.
In another region of Victoria, Ballarat Central held 26
auctions over the year attracting 12 sales this was
up from just five auction
sales last year.
Auction volumes also increased in the Gippsland
town of Sale, up 41 per cent
to 24 auctions; Echuca, up
13 per cent to 76 auctions;
Morwell, up 50 per cent to 15
auctions; and Horsham, up
15 per cent to 15 auctions.
The experience in regional
Victoria has been replicated
in Melbournes outer suburbs up to 50km and more
from the CBD where auction levels have continued to
grow in the past year.
Indicative of the trend have
been Hoppers Crossing in
the west of Melbourne and
Mornington in the southeast, which have both recorded more than 100 auction sales this year for the
first time.

Results - Round 8
By Andrew Porter
McIntyre First XI v Sunbury
Winning the toss and batting, the opening pair of M. Sepala
(40) and I. Spiteri (44) saw the Bulls with 67 on the board when
their first wicket fell. The fall of the second wicket saw the
Bulls at 98 and as with previous weeks, partnerships were
hard to come by withwickets falling at 102, 110 and 120. D.
OLouglin (26) and A. Porter (35) managedto steady the ship
and post a defendable target. A brief cameo from T. McColl
(13) which incuded a beautiful six over cover saw the Bulls at
8/ 191 after their allocated 40 overs.
With 191 on the board the Bulls had faith in their bowling
attack to defend and they did not disappoint. M. Ekanayaka
was in blistering form claiming his first five wicket haul for
the Bulls with the fantastic figures of 8-1-5/25 backed up by
C. McKinley who took an impressive 4/32 off his 8 overs.
Finally, Bacchus Marsh bowled Sunbury out for 173, their
second loss for the season.

Darley Cricket
opposition.
It didnt take long for the
opposition to chase down
the total, but by BallaratRedan batting their full 20
overs to score 6/135, it gave
Darley a chance to give everyone a bowl. As a result,
wickets were spread around,
with Jackson Smith claiming
two, and one each to James
Martindale, Ben Taylor,
Mackenzie Murray and Austin Macbeth.
It was better news for the
14 & Under Second XI, who
recorded a strong win over
Wendouree. The Lions held
Wendouree to 8/83 from
their 20 overs, with wickets
shared between their bowlers, and despite a shaky start
to their innings with Ethan
Thewma (5) and Aaron Cadman (1) dismissed early to
have Darley reeling at 2/10,
Brodie Ward and Rockey
Hoey came together to
steady the ship, both eventually retiring on 30 to lead the
Lions to victory.
Darleys Under 12 sides
had mixed results in their
final games, also both playing Twenty20 games as the
Darley Pride held Ballan to
just 5/50 off their 20 overs
before scoring 4/92 to claim
a comfortable victory, whilst
the Darley Cubs scored 1/63
in their game against Melton
South Primary School CC before their opponents chased
their score down to make
2/75, with Jackson Hunt taking one wicket and a run-out
delivering another.
All Darley junior sides return on Saturday 28 January with the Under 12 sides
re-commencing on Friday 3
February.
