Heatherton the ‘best location’ for stabling Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au THE state government has defended a proposal to put train stabling on the former Delta landfill site in Heatherton.

Transport infrastructure minister Jacinta Allan says that the Heatherton site is “the best location for the stabling of Suburban Rail Loop trains. It minimises the compulsory acquisition of homes, businesses and parkland.”

“The Suburban Rail Loop will provide new transport connections,

slash travel times and create jobs for residents of Kingston,” Ms Allan said.

“The government will work closely with Kingston Council and residents to ensure that the Suburban Rail Loop project enables the chain of parks project to be delivered.”

Late last year the state government

announced that it was proposing to use the Heatherton site, bordered by Old Dandenong and Kingston Roads, for stabling yards. The decision prompted fury from Kingston councillors, who last month voted to “absolutely reject” the plan (“Train stabling decision devastated community”, The News,

3/2/21).

The Suburban Rail Loop’s website reads that “the Stage One alignment, including the proposed train stabling at Heatherton, will be subject to an Environment Effects Statement, our state’s most robust planning and environmental assessment and approval process.”

COVID exposure Grant programs open sites updated

Dude, where’s my car park?: Labor MPs Peta Murphy and Catherine King calling on the Morrison government to deliver on its promise to build more car parks. Picture: Supplied

Call to fulfil station parking promise ble - made without any consultation - and has all the hallmarks of being yet another Morrison announcement without delivery. Our community needs investment in public transport infrastructure, we deserve to have the promised funding delivered.”

The News sent queries to urban infrastructure minister Paul Fletcher’s office asking for an update on the projects. A spokesperson for the Department of Infrastructure, Transport, Regional Development, and Communications responded “the commuter car park upgrades at Frankston, Kananook and Seaford railway stations are currently in the planning stage with consultation between the Australian and Victorian governments and Frankston City Council ongoing. All projects vary in complexity and are required to go through appropriate planning before construction can start.”

Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au THE opposition has called on the federal government to get moving on its promise to build more car parks at Frankston line train stations.

In the leadup to its victory at the 2019 election, the federal government promised to expand the car parks at three Frankston line stations - Frankston, Seaford, and Kananook.

“Before the last election, Scott Morrison promised an extra 100 carparks for both Kananook and Seaford Stations but nothing has been delivered,” Dunkley MP Peta Murphy said. “It’s been two years since the announcement, and nothing has happened.

“The announcement of these car parks was an election thought bub-

“The Australian government is committed to ensuring commuter car park upgrades funded through the urban congestion fund get underway as quickly as possible, to bust congestion in our major cities by providing more opportunities for commuters to park and ride on public transport.

Commuter car parks are a critical enabler for people to use public transport,” the spokesperson said.

“All funding for the Australian government’s committed projects in Victoria under the urban congestion fund is budgeted and ready to be paid on achievement of agreed construction milestones.”

In May 2019, the now former Dunkley MP Chris Crewther was joined by treasurer Josh Frydenberg to announce $38.5 million in “budgeted” funding for the project (“Push to ease parking pain”, The News, 6/5/19).

VICTORIA’S 28-day run without COVID-19 recorded in the community was broken on 3 February.

A hotel quarantine worker tested positive to COVID-19 after last working at the Grand Hyatt on 29 January.

Following the 26-year-old Noble Park man’s positive test the Department of Health updated its list of exposure sites, including locations in Keysborough.

One of the exposure sites was the Aces Sporting Club driving range on the corner of Springvale Road and Hutton Road, Keysborough, between 10pm and 11.15pm 30 January. Anyone who visited the range during that time is asked to get a coronavirus test, and remain isolated for 14 days.

Kmart Keysborough in Parkmore Shopping Centre on Cheltenham Road was also listed as an exposure site.

Anyone who visited that store between 4pm and 5pm on 31 January was also asked to get tested and isolate.

The Melbourne Golf Academy at 385 Centre Dandenong Road, Heatherton, between 5.19pm and 6.36pm on 1 February was also an exposure site.

After the new COVID-19 case was discovered, new restrictions were put into place statewide. The limit on the number of people gathering in a household was reduced from 30 to 15 again.

Masks were also made mandatory in public indoor spaces.

The 75 per cent return to work plan scheduled for 8 February was postponed.

APPLICATIONS for Kingston Council’s 2021 grant programs have opened.

The Annual Grants program offers up to $10,000 for not-for-profit community groups and organisations. Up to $5000 is available through the Arts Grants program, while groups that organise activities for Children’s Week in October can apply for up to $1,000 through the Children’s Week Grant.

The mayor Steve Staikos said “these grants give local community groups a valuable boost to continue their good work. It’s also an equitable way for the community to seek funding assistance from council.”

“There are so many fantastic community groups doing great work across Kingston and 2020 showed just how crucial the services they provide are to our community, in times of need. Council is proud to be able to support their efforts.”

Applications open until midnight on 28 March. To read more or apply visit kingston.vic.gov.au/grants APPLICATIONS for council’s annual grants are open. Picture: Supplied

Late night library sessions scheduled CARRUM Downs Library is completing an unlikely transformation into a late night hangout spot.

The library will now open until 10pm on Thursday nights.

The Libraries After Dark program welcomes visitors to enjoy a number of different activities. The program runs at many libraries statewide through funding from the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation.

Frankston councillor David Asker

said the initiative aims to “offer an alternative to gaming venues and online gambling.”

“Between 2018 and 2019, $559 was lost at the poker machines per adult in Frankston City, which is higher than the Victorian average of $538. Frankston City residents lost more than $62 million during this period. These losses have far reaching consequences for our community, beyond their financial impacts,”

he said.

“Libraries After Dark was initially launched in 2018 and I’m very excited we’re adding Carrum Downs library to the program, providing a safe space for our residents to explore the library, enjoy a cuppa and the activities we’ll have on offer.

If you’re not sure what to do with yourself on a Thursday night, why not visit Carrum Downs library.”

Weed killer ban on the chopping block

with Brodie Cowburn

Cycle of crime continues BICYCLE thefts are on the rise.

Last month a TREK brand bicycle, pictured below, was stolen from the front yard of a Bonbeach home. The offender had to jump a fence and cut locks to steal the bike on 19 January.

A statement on the Kingston police eyewatch Facebook page read “Bayside suburbs in Kingston are experiencing an increase in the theft of bicycles from homes and public spaces.

In most instances, bikes have been secured with locks. Police are aware that many of these bikes are being painted and resold via online sites such as Gumtree, Marketplace and eBay.” “Please photograph your bike and

any additional accessories, and record the serial number. You can also engrave your driver licence number under the frame. This can assist us to recover your bike if it is stolen.”

Anyone with information about the Bonbeach bike theft can contact Chelsea Police on 8773 3200 to report it.

Drug charges TWO Patterson Lakes residents have been hit with drug charges after they were allegedly found with methylamphetamine and GHB. Police pulled over a car on Legana Court, Patterson Lakes, last week. In a statement police said they found “a significant amount of methylamphetamine and GHB as well as a prohibited weapon.”

Two people, a 34-year-old man and a 25-year-old woman, were charged with drug related offences, and were

bailed to appear at the Moorabbin Magistrates Court.

Jewellery stolen POLICE are investigating the theft of jewellery in Cheltenham.

The theft took place on 15 November, 2020.

An image of a man, above, police wish to speak to about the theft has been released. Police say the man was wearing “a black jacket, brown pants, black beanie and white runners.”

FRANKSTON Council is set to consider overturning its ban on glyphosatebased weed killers.

Council announced an internal ban on the use of glyphosate products, such as Roundup, in late 2019. It phased out use of the product throughout 2020.

The News understands that councillors will consider overturning the herbicide ban at their next public meeting.

When asked if council is considering scrapping the ban and the costs involved, the mayor Kris Bolam said that “council will consider a detailed report in relation to this matter at the council meeting on Monday 15 February.”

It is understood that council officers have recommended that glyphosate be reintroduced because other weed control methods have been nearly $500,000 more expensive and not as effective.

Council ceased using glyphosate for weed control at playgrounds, preschools, and maternal child health centres on 1 January, 2020. The use of the herbicide was phased out entirely by council in June, with techniques including steam application, weeding, brush cutting, and mulching used instead.

Last week pharmaceutical company Bayer AG announced a $US2 billion proposal to resolve future legal claims in the United States over the use of the glyphosate-based weed killer Roundup.

It is alleged that the weed killer may have links to cancer cases.

Kingston Council also announced it would phase out the use of glyphosate in 2019.

Push for more time on green wedge plan Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire is making a submission to the Melbourne Green Wedges and Agricultural Land Consultation (MGWAL) paper despite wanting the public exhibition time extended to at least the end of the month.

The shire is concerned it will not have enough time to “consult with the community” over the plan which had a deadline for public comment of 5 February. It will also arrange a poll to “ask if the public agrees with the council’s response”.

The state government’s Planning for Melbourne’s Green Wedges and Agricultural Land website says, “robust planning controls are needed to maintain the benefits provided by green wedges and manage land use to support long term agricultural use that serves the needs of Melbourne’s growing population”.

But it came under fire last week from Green Wedges Coalition coordinator Rosemary West, who said: “The green wedges are under threat like nothing we have seen since 50,000 hectares was rezoned for urban development in land grabs by planning ministers Justin Madden and Matthew Guy in 2010/12.

“The Planning Minister Richard Wynne promised at the 2018 election to improve the protection of green wedges, but his MGWAL review paper that is supposed to fulfil that promise, instead proposes to undermine and reduce protection for green wedges.”

Ms West said the review paper “pro-

Picture: Yanni poses ‘transition’ areas that would blur the urban growth boundary with a grey border of suburban sprawl, rezoned to rural living zone or farming zone, where urban uses like concrete crushers, data centres, schools, places of worship, bars, motels, car washes and motor repairs would be encouraged and the green wedges would shrink”.

“This has not been well publicised and we have sent out a last call to let people know they can make submissions until the closing date,” she said.

This was to have been Friday 5 February, but later advice was that submissions received up to 10 days late would be accepted.

Ms West said several examples of “inappropriate developments” were awaiting decisions by Mr Wynne or by VCAT, including “[the Ryman] retirement village at Mount Eliza and the Alex Fraser concrete crusher applica-

tion that has been approved by the minister for another 10 years, in the Kingston green wedge.”

She said the Planning for Melbourne’s Green Wedges and Agricultural Land review paper encouraged waste and resource recovery activities, such as the concrete crusher.

The shire’s strategic projects manager Allan Cowley in a report to the 27 January planning services committee meeting said the study area for the consultation paper extended beyond the green wedge areas to “also include peri-urban areas within 100 kilometres of Melbourne”.

He said the consultation paper provided a “good overview of many issues facing green wedge areas and provided an opportunity to advocate for a significant number of the policy positions identified in the council’s green wedge management plan”.

“It also responds positively to council’s earlier submissions in relation to strategic agricultural land by recognising that all rural land in the green wedge interface and peri-urban areas of metro Melbourne should be considered to be of strategic importance as part of Melbourne’s food bowl.”

Mr Cowley said a “key message” in any council response should be to ensure that a plan for each green wedge area be “given status as the key planning policy for that particular area – ensuring that all of the issues/values in that area are considered in an integrated/holistic way and avoiding a ‘one size fits all’ approach to planning for the diverse green wedge areas”.

He said delays in the public exhibition process and the release of the paper following the council election in November and then the Christmas/New Year period limited preparation of a

suitable response.

This “severely restricted the ability of council to consult with the community and stakeholder groups and for groups and individuals to have access to council’s views on … the consultation paper which may inform their own submissions.

“Given the increasing emphasis on community consultation and engagement expressed, for example, in the Local Government Act 2020, this restriction appears contrary to both state government policy directions and council’s own … mission and values.”

Mr Cowley said: “While some of the options outlined in the consultation paper, particularly in relation to ‘transitional areas’, raise concerns and there are other issues that also need to be addressed, it is considered that [it] provides a strong basis for constructive engagement with the Department of Environment Land Water and Planning, the community and other agencies going forward.

“The proposed submissions on behalf of council should support this process and ensure that key issues of importance to the planning and management of the Mornington Peninsula green wedge are given appropriate consideration.”

The paper was placed on public exhibition on 26 November and DELWP says it has conducted three online information sessions.

Duck out to discover life in wetlands Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au FOLLOWING on from World Wetlands Day, RSPCA Victoria is encouraging bird lovers to visit nearby wetlands to see which breeds are living there.

The aim is to promote an awareness of the wetlands as well as protect their role as vital bird breeding and feeding sites.

The largest wetlands on and near the Mornington Peninsula are Warringine park at Bittern, Tootgarook wetlands (or swamp) at Capel Sound, and Edithvale wetlands at Carrum, which are home to many interesting breeds of water birds.

The internationally recognised Warringine Park is listed in the 50-year-old Ramsar Convention – or treaty – which provides a framework for conserving the biological diversity of the world’s wetlands.

RSPCA Victoria and BirdLife Australia have devised an education campaign called Discover Ducks to build an appreciation of native ducks in Victoria.

“Victoria’s wetlands are untapped treasures, full of unique wildlife just waiting to be discovered and explored,” the RSPCA’s Mhairi Roberts said. “With waterbird abundance and breeding at an all-time low, there’s never been a more important time to embrace nearby wetlands and understand what makes these places so special.”

Victoria has 12 Ramsar-listed wet-

WHILE not exactly fitting the description of a duck, or even a water bird, this emu is no stranger to wetlands and drier parts of The Briars property at Mount Martha. The preening swan and duck, left, are of course a different matter. Pictures: Gary Sissons lands which support 499 threatened native species, including ducks.

“Our wetlands are a particularly good place to observe native ducklife, which often goes unappreciated,” Ms Roberts said. “Ducks are interesting and unique creatures and we encourage people to really take the time to get to know them. You might be surprised by what you learn!”

All Australian ducks are unique, here are some quirky facts: n Australian Wood Duck: Monogamous, family oriented and nests in

trees Australian Shelduck: Congregate in flocks of up to a thousand and lose their ability to fly for 20 days annually n Blue-billed Duck: Rarely walk on land and breeding males have a sky-blue bill n Pink-eared Duck: Also known as the ‘Zebra Duck’ or ‘Clown Duck’ for their unique appearance n Pacific Black Duck: Oil produced by a gland at the base of their tail makes them waterproof n

World Wetlands Day is a reminder that it is our responsibility to maintain the health of these environments and the animals that live there. Some good tips to remember are to reduce the use of household chemicals, such as fertilisers and insecticides, which pollute our waterways.

Also, avoid single-use plastics, such as coffee cups and straws, never leave rubbish behind, always pick up your dog’s poo – it contributes to the pollution of waterways.

Similarly, don’t throw garden waste

in the bush. It can become rampant in the natural environment, ruin habitat and create havens for foxes. Don’t throw water or plants from a fish tank into a waterway. It can spread and compete with native vegetation, reducing suitable habitat and food sources for native animals like ducks.

People are asked to minimise their household water use. The more that’s left in our rivers, the more chance our wetlands have of filling up and providing ducks with a home.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Mr Williams shot in eye in ‘act of stupidity’ Compiled by Cameron McCullough MR Mark Williams, who for many years acted as handicapper to the Frankston Athletic Sports Club, was the victim of a stupid joke at the A.N.A. sports on Monday last.

In a spirit of jocularity, a man pointed a starter’s revolver at Mr Williams and pulled the trigger.

Luckily, it contained only blank cartridges. However, the cartridge exploded and the wad hit Mr. Williams in the right eye.

It is feared that he will lose the sight of the eye.

As “The Age” says, the same thing has been done so often with such lamentable results that it is hard to imagine how any sane person with any worldly experience could perpetrate so stupid a joke without thought. *** THE many friends of Mr Barber senr will be pleased to learn that he is making a satisfactory recovery after the recent operation he underwent for appendicitis. *** A FAIR amount of excitement was caused on Saturday last, when the first aeroplane to land in Somerville alighted in Mr Arthur Thornell’s paddock.

It was piloted by Captain Fullarton, who started business right away.

Passengers were soon forthcoming, quite a number of residents making the 10 minute trip especially on the Sunday, when one enthusiastic local “flighter” made four ascents!

It is said that over £40 was netted by the aviator. ***

THE slump in the wholesale prices of fruit has somewhat affected the industry here. This is expected, however, to be temporary only.

Most growers are cool storing their early fruits awaiting better returns. *** QUITE a number of properties have changed hands in this district, resulting in the advent of fresh citizens to our growing community. *** W. Clarke, the Young Street butcher, supplies sides mutton at 8d per lb – prime mutton too. *** THE War Service Homes Commission are about to erect a war service home in Craigrossie Street, Mornington. *** AT a recent general meeting of the Tyabb Methodist Bible Class, the Rev C. Angwin, on behalf of the members and friends, presented a chaste silver teapot to Miss Lily Thornell on the eve of her marriage, and wished her every happiness in her new sphere. *** AT the recent Quarterly Meeting of the Frankston Methodist Circuit at Tyabb, reference was made to the death of Mr J. J. Corlett and his long and honorable connection with the circuit, and sympathy was expressed with members of the family.

The quarterly Methodist report also makes the following reference to the late Mr Corlett:— “He was a fine type of a Christian gentleman.

He belonged to a class of men and women, our indebtedness to whom we cannot too highly estimate, whose

memory we cannot too much honor the pioneers of our church.” *** IN conjunction with Brody and Mason, on Saturday last, Arthur Tuckett & Son, the Melbourne subdivisional experts, conducted a subdivisional auction sale on the Warringa Estate.

The attendance was not very large, owing doubtlessly to the excessive heat, but several attractive blocks were sold at satisfactory prices.

Warringa Estate is situated in the same locality as the Baxter and Plummer’s Estate – on one of those lofty elevations rising from the Mornington Road and overlooking the widest expanse of Port Phillip Bay. *** THE secretary, Mr L. Prosser, states that the Frankston Orchestral Society has decided to admit honorary members on payment of 5s – entitling members to all performances given by the Orchestra.

It is proposed to give musical programmes in the Melville Rotunda on Sunday afternoons and evenings, weather permitting, as soon as the rotunda is ready for use.

Two professional artists, Messrs Cowan and Goodman, with Messrs Ings and Bawden, have been added to the musical strength of the Orchestra. *** MR A. J. Ross, of Brunswick, who won the £75 event the last Frankston Sports, ran unplaced in the principal event at Kyneton on Monday last.

But Mr A. J. Davis, who performed only moderately here, captured the Sheffield Handicap at the A.N.A. sports on the same date.

Mr J. J. Healy, whose sensational race with Mr H. R. Smith in the 220 yds event at Frankston, will long be remembered, won the principal race at the Warragul meeting.

The nippy Carlton cyclist, Mr A. Abrahams, who had a spill at Frankston, won the A.N.A. Wheel Race whilst Mr A. D. Box (the winner of the wheel double at Frankston two years ago) filled a place on two occasions. *** AS reported in “The Standard” last issue, the Royal Hotel, Hastings, has changed hands, the price paid for the lease running into substantial figures.

The new boniface is Mr Joseph Jacobson. Mr Jacobson comes to the Hastings district with a good business and personal reputation, and in welcoming Mr and Mrs Jacobson to the district, we take the opportunity of wishing them every success in their new undertaking.

The late licensee, Mrs Mary Dalton, has returned to Melbourne to reside. *** FOR some time past, we have heard complaints made to the effect that the Somerville district was somewhat neglected by “The Standard” in the matters of news.

This has not been entirely the Editor’s fault, as great difficulty was experienced in getting the services of a suitable correspondent.

Fortunately, we have now secured the services of one of the most widely respected gentlemen in the district to act in that capacity, and we feel sure the arrangement will be mutually satisfactory to the Somerville people

and ourselves.

A prominent Balnarring resident has also decided to contribute district notes at intervals, so that in future with the local correspondents at Seaford, Langwarrin, Hastings, Tyabb, Crib Point, Moorooduc and elsewhere spurred to activity, the readers of “The Standard” in the neighboring district should be exceptionally well catered for in the way of news. *** MR E. Barrett writes: – Will you kindly give me space in your widely circulated journal to make a brief reply to the letter from the Somerville Branch of the R.S.S.I.L.A. published in your last issue.

In reply, I have to say that no one would regret more than I should any remark of mine be construed into casting a reflection on those who fought for our country or those who kept the “home fires burning,” and I thank the Somerville Returned Soldier’s League for giving me the opportunity of saying that my remark was never meant to convey that meaning.

Cr Murray’s “well-known sentiments” had led him to try and show that Cr Oates, who was elected to the position by a big vote, should not sit on a Repatriation Committee.

Somerville and Pines tie, Hastings snatch a last ball win, Seaford too good for Balnarring

By Brodie Cowburn

PENINSULA

SOMERVILLE and Pines finished all square after an epic encounter on Saturday.

After losing the toss, Somerville were sent in to bat first. Good knocks from opener Craig Black and number four Bradley McDonald helped guide the side to a final total of 143.

Pines' run chase started poorly, with usually reliable openers Damien Lawrence and Ricky Ramsdale dismissed for scores of 11 and zero respectively.

Harley Peace-Stirling came in after the openers and got things back on track. After a duck in his innings last week against Flinders, Peace-Stirling was out to make amends. The first drop batsman blasted 66 runs.

Unfortunately for Peace-Stirling, wickets kept falling around him. At 7/100, Pines looked in deep trouble.

A decent late partnership between Peace-Stirling and Patrick Jackson pushed Pines to 8/137 heading into the closing stages of the match. Pines were able to put six more runs on the board, ending at 9/143 at the end of their 40 overs. The teams shared the points.

At Bruce Park, Heatherhill bowled well to defend their total of 140 against Seaford Tigers.

Moorooduc joined the winner’s list on Saturday with a victory over Main Ridge. Opener Benjamin Williams set them up for a win with a knock of 69 runs.

The game came down to the final delivery. Hastings were able to hold their nerve to hit the winning runs and claim a hard-fought victory.

A fantastic unbeaten century from Mark Cooper got Carrum a big win over Dromana.

Cooper carried his bat through a brilliant innings. Carrum ended up setting Dromana 205 runs to win.

Both Dromana openers fell for less than five runs, putting their run chase in jeopardy right from the beginning.

Adam Ciavarella and Kierran Voelkl came in and combined for 92 runs, but their efforts were not enough to drag Dromana to victory. Their side ended up losing by 32 runs.

A patient half century from Scott Hayes was the highlight of Rosebud’s innings.

SEAFORD notched up a well-earned win over Balnarring on Saturday.

Balnarring chose to bat first, and put a competitive total of 157 on the board. That total would have been higher if not for the bowling efforts of Matthew Roach, who took 1/5 off five overs.

Seaford proved up to the task, and hit the winning runs with five wickets in hand and three overs left to play.

Ryan McQueen’s half century made a big difference for the winning side.

Boneo had a tough day at home, failing in their run chase against Ballam Park.

Ballam Park set Boneo a target of 155 to chase down to win. Boneo got off to a decent start, and at 2/49 looked

BADEN Powell bowled well to defeat Sorrento at David Macfarlane Reserve on Saturday.

A quickfire knock of 47 off 36 from opener Beau Anthony set Baden Powell up. They finished their innings at 8/149.

A disastrous middle order collapse cost Sorrento a chance at a win. First drop batsman Robert Wilson watched as six of his batting partners were dismissed for single digits.

Wilson’s wicket was the last to fall.

His half century wasn't enough to get his side the win. Sorrento were bowled out for 112 off 29 overs.

A brilliant innings by Wade Pelzer proved the difference in Peninsula OB’s clash against Mornington.

Second Wallace Cup for Langy SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie LANGWARRIN’s pre-season preparations went according to plan last Saturday at Monterey Reserve when it won back-to-back Wallace Cups.

As fate would have it Langy’s 1-0 win over Mornington in the final came thanks to Sammy Orritt who was brought here by the Dallas Brooks boys back in 2017.

He’d scored a belter earlier in the tournament, a fiercely-struck volley that rocketed into the net and the decider in the final was a deftly curled shot into the far corner from the left of the box.

Mornington took a young squad to the annual tournament with most of its high-profile players either injured or rested and the slick interpassing on show bodes well for the future.

Langwarrin was without Wayne Wallace, Tom Youngs, John Maclean and Marcus Holmes and one of its standout performers was recent signing Alex Kubenko whose pace, movement and disposal were highlights.

Kubenko has just turned 18 and was signed from Springvale White Eagles.

“We put an importance on winning the tournament while also looking after the players’ welfare and we are pleased with the outcome,” Langy assistant coach Jamie Skelly said.

This was the ninth staging of the Wallace Cup and the first hosted by Frankston Pines.

A large crowd, a fine day and some spirited performances were features.

And there were surprises too.

Winners are grinners: Langwarrin players and coaching staff celebrate last weekend’s Wallace Cup success at Monterey Reserve.

The sudden appearance of Colin McCormack in goal for Rosebud was one of them albeit that his was a cameo performance.

The former Langy, Peninsula Strikers and Knox City custodian had been retired for two years and plans to return to the demands of parenthood and work.

A notable absentee from Rosebud’s Wallace Cup squad was striker Mark Pagliarulo.

The big Scot is undecided about where he’ll play this year but apart from discussing his situation with Rosebud the usual suspects are also in the frame – Somerville Eagles, White Star Dandenong and Baxter.

In the Wallace Cup first semi-final Langy prevailed with a 1-0 win over Skye United.

Seventeen-year-old Seb Fernandes scored the decisive goal after Daniel Walsh gave the ball away but former Langy player Mitch Blake blew a gilt-

edged chance to level when he failed to hit the target from close range.

In the second semi Mornington came from behind to beat Pines 2-1.

Sava Baledrokadroka gave Pines a half-time lead after Tito Vodawaqa put him through but a Kameel Khan own goal in the second half levelled the scores and Tom Wood nabbed the winner.

In practice match news Skye United lost 4-1 last Wednesday to State 1 side Beaumaris.

Skye’s goal came from Marcus Anastasiou who finished off a near post cross with a first-time finish.

“It was a good hit-out against a very good Beaumaris side and a great learning curve for my players,” Skye coach Phil McGuinness said.

On the same night Seaford United cantered to a 9-0 win over Mount Eliza with goals from Dylan Waugh (3), Blake Hicks (3), Mitch Lander, Adam Daniel and Tom Simmons.

Seaford seem set to sign striker Hicks from Rosebud and his brother Hayden, a goalkeeper, also looks like joining.

Senior coach Peter Schwellinger coached the Hicks brothers at Old Carey a few years ago.

“They feel very comfortable playing in this side and they enjoy playing with my sons (Matthias and Jeremy) again after they were all together at Old Carey.

“The friendly against Mount Eliza was a great little training run to work on shape.

“I want to implement a different formation so it’s early days and I’m really not concerned about scores until we play in the FFA Cup in a few weeks.”

Last Saturday Aspendale Stingrays defeated Dandenong South 2-0 at George Andrews Reserve with goals from Kenan Nuhanovic and new signing Ugar Erdem.

Former Berwick City and Heatherton United player Hayden Nuhanovic made his first appearance for the Stingrays whose best were Kenan Nuhanovic, Noah Berends and Matt Self.

Fellow State 5 outfit Mount Martha lost 6-4 to Endeavour Sporting Club on Saturday.

Mount Martha’s scorers were Alex Giordano (2), Jett Higgins and Ethan Sanderson (penalty).

“It was a cracker of a game with a lot of end-to-end stuff,” Mount Martha coach Chris Sanderson said.

“We bossed the first half and only let the game get away towards the end but there were loads of positives, especially the performance of 17-year-old

Jack Poole in goal.”

In other news the draw for the qualifying round of the 2021 FFA Cup took place last week.

This year’s tournament involves 210 Victorian clubs.

On the weekend of 20/21 February three local State 5 South clubs will participate: Aspendale Stingrays v Bundoora (from State 5 North), Mount Martha v East Kew (State 5 East) and Rosebud v Lara United (State 5 West).

State 4 South clubs Baxter, Seaford United, Chelsea and Somerville Eagles enter the draw for the first main round.

Avalon digs deep for second Group One win HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou SHANE Nichols’ gutsy galloper Streets of Avalon has dug deep to bring up his second Group One victory in Saturday’s C.F. Orr Stakes (1400m) at Caulfield.

Having claimed the Group One Futurity Stakes over the same track and trip a year ago, Streets of Avalon once again fought hard to fend off the challenges and land a half-length victory over the Chris Waller-trained Imaging in Saturday’s feature race.

There was a roar on course as jockey Zac Spain saluted aboard the gelding to ride his first Group One winner and bring up Morningtonbased trainer Shane Nichols’ third Group One success.

Nichols, who last year overcame a heart attack to return to the training ranks, was ecstatic to see his tough gelding continue on his unbeaten preparation having won first-up in the Group Two Australia Stakes in January.

“The heart was racing. It was given a test out and it came through in flying colours,” Shane Nichols said post-race. “I don’t know if mine (heart) quite works as good as [Streets of Avalon’s] but when Imaging came to him I thought we’re in a bit of strife here but he just came again. He found and was holding the other horse on the line.

It was a remarkable performance by a tough horse.”

“For a horse that has had as many runs as he has and to still be fronting up and winning Group Ones is a remarkable performance not only from

the team at home but also the track and the staff at Mornington.”

Nichols said it was days like Saturday that every trainer lives for.

“I was pretty emotional after the Australia Stakes but now I’m just pumped. It was a tough time but the get well wishes made it all seem a little bit easier and then days like today – that and family is what you live for,” he said.

Jockey Zac Spain was absolutely thrilled to land the milestone victory aboard the six-yearold gelding.

“I celebrated a bit after the line and was calling out a fair bit but he’s just been such a super horse for me and career changing really. He was my first Listed (winner), Group Two and now Group One (win) so I can’t thank Shane and Phil Warren and the whole ownership group enough. They’ve stuck strong with me throughout and to repay them with a Group One win is just fantastic,” Spain said post-race.

“He’s just tough as nails and rock hard fit and it just shows how good of a trainer Shane is to have him spot on for today.”

Streets of Avalon’s win on Saturday brought up the gelding’s tenth career victory from 54 starts. He has earnt just over $1.7million in prize money.

Hearts pumping: The Shane Nichols-trained Streets of Avalon fends off all challenges to win his second Group One race in the C.F. Orr Stakes at Caulfield.
