Rail protests on march Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au MORE than 300 protesters against any form of elevated rail along any part of the Frankston line marched to show their dismay at level crossing removal plans released this month. No Sky Rail: Frankston Line marchers walked from Chelsea to Edithvale on Sunday (18 September) to protest against rail over road being built at any Frankston line crossings.

The Level Crossing Removal Authority has announced rail over road ‘rail bridges’ are only feasible at Frankston (Skye/Overton Rd) and Carrum (Station St and Eel Race Rd). The LXRA has also released ‘rail trench’ and ‘rail bridge’ options for level crossings at Seaford, Bonbeach, Edithvale, Mentone and Cheltenham and is seeking community feedback on the plans before the end of October. No Sky Rail: Frankston Line group president Willem Popp said the state government should listen to communi-

ty opposition to any form of ‘sky rail’ in the form of rail built above road up to 16 metres high. “I think Sunday’s protest was very successful given the overcast conditions,” Mr Popp said. “We had 300 to 400 people coming out … and we expect many more people at future demonstrations.” He said a person with a fake name had posted a message on Facebook wrongly claiming the protest march had been postponed for two hours on Sunday.

Cnr Springvale Rd & Wells Rd, Chelsea Heights PH: 9773 4453 www.chelseaheightshotel.com.au

Mr Popp accused the government of wanting “a quick and easy” way to separate road from rail instead of investing more time in rail under road solutions to last for generations in bayside suburbs. “We will continue to fight and put forward the views that rail under road is the preferred option. It is achievable and realistic. “They shouldn’t take the dirty, nasty solution just to meet their short term aims of getting these crossings done within their short time frame.”

Group member Sean Wise, an engineering project manager, called on the LXRA to release all the technical information collected before rail under road was rejected as options at Frankston and Carrum. He said “glossy brochures” released by the LXRA are no substitute for the engineering research commissioned by the Department of Transport body for the $1.6 billion project set to change suburbs for the next century.

City Of Kingston Council Elections 2016 My name is Bob Halsall and I am a candidate in the south ward for the Kingston Council elections. You may not know me but together with my son and daughter we have run “The Mattress Shop” at the Chelsea Market shopping centre for over 10 years. I have learnt a lot about business in that time and we know about the importance of keeping overheads low and giving a high level of service. These are principles I believe could equally be applied to council. I am at my shop most days of the week and if you ever need to talk an issue through I am happy for you to drop in and discuss it. I will give you a voice on council. I understand you may have other candidates in mind, but I ask you to vote for me first, or if you prefer your second or third preference would be appreciated. I work well with others, I am not a member of a political party and I will not be using this as a stepping stone to a political career. I want a council that is quick to respond to the needs of the community.

The City of Kingston elections are being held by postal vote in October 2016. The Victorian Electoral Commission (VEC) will conduct the election. All postal votes must be received by 6pm Friday 21 October 2016. Authorised by Bob Halsall, 9/450 Nepean Hwy, Chelsea VIC 3196 PAGE 2

Security upped at post centres

Leaders in action

IT has been a year of celebration at Aspendale’s St Louis de Montfort’s School, with two of its school captains being recognised for their determination and leadership. School captain Ella Bater was named the Fred Hollows Foundation’s ‘Victorian Junior Humanitarian Ambassador’ and another of the school’s captains, Mason Dwyer, was appointed junior lord mayor for the City of Melbourne. A school captain, Ella’s passion for highlighting the plight of refugees is behind her drive to raise awareness within her school and wider community. The Fred Hollows humanity award recognises year 6 students in Australia who reflect the values Fred Hollows lived by in their own lives. This year Ella has taken a leading role in raising funds and awareness for the Cancer Council, Caritas, Backpacks4VicKids and several other causes, and she has represented the school at the Kingston Junior Mayor Event, Education Melbourne Sustainability Initiative. Ella received her award from Premier Daniel Andrews and Fred Hollows Foundation founding director, Gabi Hollows. Mason was nominated by the school for his outstanding student leadership and his appointment as junior lord mayor followed an interview with the lord mayor Robert Doyle and five other Melbourne City Councillors. He was appointed out of a field of 30 applicants.

Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au DESPITE assurances that parcel security has been beefed up at its mail delivery centres, Australia Post is being cagey about exactly what measures have been taken. National communications manager Jared Lynch said inadvertently alerting would-be thieves to the upgrades would give them a head start in possible future robberies. He agreed better security was necessary, especially at the Ventura Way, Braeside premises, which has been robbed three times recently, with up to 200 parcels stolen from the sorting area in raids in July, late August and 12 September. “We are working closely with the police and have implemented a number of extra security measures at that site,” he said. “These include CCTV, regular monitoring and screening.” Australia Post’s Clayton South delivery centre has also been targeted recently, with two pallet-loads of parcels – 100 on each pallet – stolen in overnight raids on 22 August and 3 September. The same offenders may have been involved. In the Braeside robbery in July, the thieves raided only exterior post boxes.

Team leaders: Passions to serve the community and improve the lives of others are the common goals of students Mason Dwyer and Ella Bater. Picture: Gary Sissons

But in the four overnight raids in August and September at the Clayton South and Braeside delivery centres, they cut locks off gates and broke into the main buildings through side doors before accessing parcel storage areas. The door jamb at Braeside was bent to force open a door and a hand trolley propped up to keep it open while the thieves stole several parcels. Detective Senior Constable Tom O’Loughlin, of Kingston CIU, said the value of items stolen in the four raids was unknown. “It’s hard to tell because we don’t know what was in each parcel,” he said. As a result of the raids, police had stepped up patrols in streets surrounding the depots. “We are certainly keeping an eye on them,” he said. “We have got CCTV footage of people we would like to interview which we will release soon.” Mr Lynch said mail theft was a criminal offence. “As the police are investigating these matters, we are unable to comment further. However, if customers have any concerns about their mail we encourage them to call us on 13 13 18.”

THREE youths punched, robbed and spray painted a 13-year-old Aspendale boy’s hair and backpack as he walked across the Mordialloc Creek footbridge, 3.20pm, Tuesday 13 September. The boy said he had ignored the youths – two aged 16 and one 18 – when they demanded his phone. They then spray painted his school backpack and the back of his head. One of the youths then allegedly said: “Give me your phone or I’ll bash you.” The boy was punched to the forehead by the older youth, knocked down, and his phone stolen. The youths walked off but one returned while the boy lay on the ground and demanded his phone’s passcode. When the boy refused the phone was thrown at him. The youth grabbed at a wallet in the boy’s pants pocket but the boy held on tight and would not give it up. When passers-by approached the youths ran off and the boy sought help at Mordialloc College. While there he saw two of the youths walking with a girl who yelled out: “Why are you helping him?” The three youths are Caucasian, two aged 16, 165cm, dark hair, average builds, wearing Nike caps, black jackets and jeans and skater-type shoes. The older boy is described as 18, 175-180cm, solid build, wearing a blue Hurley hoodie and dark tracksuit pants. The girl is described as Caucasian, long blonde hair with red or orange tips, wearing lots of make-up, black hoodie and a skirt. Anyone with information is asked to call Mordialloc police, 9588 2988, or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Dog saves the day

Boys hide after assault

A MORDIALLOC man woken by his dog barking went downstairs to find his wife’s keys missing, 5am, Wednesday 14 September. The thieves entered the Pooley Bridge Rd house by jumping a neighbour’s fence and opening an unlocked garage roller door leading to the kitchen. Once inside they stole keys to a Ford station wagon, house keys and the remote control to the garage. Police said the locks were being changed and the remote recoded last week. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

LOSS prevention officers at Bunnings Mentone watched as a man filled his sports bag with power tools and walked out of the store, 8.52pm, Wednesday 14 September. The officers confronted the Caulfield South man outside and said he became aggressive when asked to open his bag. The man ran off but was found at a tyre dealership in Swanson St and police called. He allegedly made full admissions at Moorabbin police station and is expected to be charged on summons with theft. A BOY, 15, was accosted at Southland shopping centre by two youths and told to hand over his pocket money 9am, Saturday 17 September. When the boy said he didn’t have any he was told he would have to steal alcohol for them. The boy, who was with his younger brother and a friend, said he was grabbed by the shoulder and forced up against the wall by the youths described as Caucasian, aged 15-16, one wearing a white Adidas hoodie and the other wearing a dark blue jumper without logos. The boy escaped but was then followed by the youths until he managed to lose them while hiding in a gaming arcade for 20 minutes. After bumping into a friend and his father he was able to report the incident to centre management. Anyone who saw the youths is asked to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Sexual assault A FRANKSTON woman was sexually assaulted on a train running between Carrum and Mordialloc stations, 7.30am, Tuesday 13 September. The woman told police she was sitting in a carriage by herself when a man got in and sat down beside her and began touching her thigh with his fingers. Initially she thought the touching was accidental and that the man had a problem with his personal space. However, when the touching became firmer and more consistent, the woman became scared and moved to another seat. She said the man did not speak to her and got off several stops later. Police are examining in-train CCTV to help identify the man. Anyone with information is asked to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Premier joins mosque’s peace movement

THE Premier Daniel Andrews was among four politicians and more than 400 guests at the annual peace symposium at the Ahmadiyya Muslim community Australia’s Bait-ul-Salam mosque in Langwarrin on Friday (16 September). The Ahmadiyya muslims, a movement which describes itself as a “fast-growing international revival movement within Islam”, has been hosting the peace symposium for the past 13 years, with the aim of promoting an understanding of Islam and other faiths. The Ahmadiyya Muslim Community Australia national president Imam Inam-ul-Haq Kauser said the symposium provides a “unique platform” for leaders of all faiths to sit under one roof and discuss ways to establish last-

ing peace in society. He said the message of peace and harmony is more “crucial than it has ever been”. “Our objective is to bring communities together and making (sic) an alliance with the help of religious, secular and political leadership to establish peace and harmony in our society.” Mr Andrews arrived a little late after being driven from Moorabbin airport after inspecting flood damaged western Victoria. His attendance at the symposium comes in the same week Pauline Hanson gave her controversial first speech in the Seante, where she said Australia risks being “swamped" by Muslims. “We are in danger of being swamped by muslims who bear a culture and ideology incompatible with

our own,” she said. Ms Hanson, known for her sensationalist views on immigration and multiculturalism, claims Islam represents a threat to Australia’s way of life, and has called for borders to be closed to immigrants.

Other guest speakers at the symposium included the MP for Holt Anthony Bryne, shadow minister for multicultural affairs Inga Peulich, consul general of India Manika Jain, and Frankston Uniting Church’s the Rev Jay Robinson.

The Ahmadiyya muslims, a movement originating from Punjab, British India in the 1800s, believes that God sent Ahmad, like Jesus, to end religious wars, condemn bloodshed and reinstitute morality, justice and peace. Liz Bell

March against sky rail at any crossing Continued from Page 1 “We want the level crossing removals to proceed but there’s a lot of misinformation going around,” Mr Wise said. “We’re going to consultation sessions and no level of technical detail is being provided. “If stabling yards are being removed at Carrum why can’t everything be moved roughly 350 metres south at Patterson River and go under as you would go over?” LXRA documents say rail under road “has been set aside due to complexity with managing existing overland flow” at Skye Rd in Frankston. “Lowering the railway line at Skye/Overton Rd will create a barrier across the existing floodplain and interrupt overland flows. “Mitigation to the interruption of overland water flows has been investigated in conjunction with Melbourne Water, with no solution identified.” The LXRA indicated 8-11 water pumps would be needed to ensure water flowed from one side of any railway trench to another and “this was deemed as not practical due to the ongoing maintenance liability and reduced floodplain resilience.” Mr Wise wants the LXRA to be “completely transparent” and release the engineering findings to the public. “It all smacks of rushing the pro-

ject and putting two options out to appease people but they’re going to go rail over road anyway,” he said. “If other urban developments haven’t affected the EdithvaleSeaford Wetlands to this stage an 800-metre long trench isn’t going to. “Ormond, Bentleigh and McKinnon are fantastic examples of infrastructure - bring it on for the other crossings. “If Bob the Builder in Chelsea can go and build an underground carpark eight, nine, ten metres in the ground then I reckon a major contractor can do it.” Construction on eight level crossing removals along the Frankston line will begin in early 2018. See your.levelcrossings.vic.gov. au for further details and ways to provide feedback to the LXRA.

Police patrol Rage on the road A CYCLIST in Nepean Hwy, Chelsea, says he was almost knocked down by a van driver who then drove off, 10.30am, Saturday 17 September. The Cranbourne South man, 51, says he was waiting at the lights at Maury Rd when the van drove up close beside him and struck his right hip. The cyclist gesticulated to the van driver, a 50-year-old Beaumaris man, who gestured to him to move over. Police allege that, when the lights turned green, the van driver deliberately swerved into the cyclist, causing cuts and extensive bruising to his right arm. Witnesses confirmed the cyclist’s account of the incident and police interviewed the van driver later that day. He is expected to be charged on summons with reckless conduct endangering serious injury.

Shop theft, bail breach counts TWO youths who allegedly stole liquor and graffiti-sprayed buses and cars in Mentone were later found to be on bail for more serious offences. The oldest of the pair, 16, of Cheltenham, allegedly stole an energy drink from Coles, 4.30pm, Tuesday 13 September. Later, he and a 13-year-old boy allegedly stole vodka from a Duncan’s outlet and wine from a BWS outlet in Mentone. On a bus to Mentone station the teens allegedly scrawled the graffiti along the inside and outside windows. When they attempted to mark a car parked at the station two men got out to grab them. PSOs intervened and the boys were arrested and taken to Moorabbin police station for questioning.

There, the older boy was found to be on bail on attempted robbery and unlawful assault charges; the younger boy on bail for contravening a family violence order, criminal damage and unlawful assault. Police allege the younger boy used an unknown implement to scratch graffiti into the peep hole of the interview room. Both boys have again been bailed to appear at children’s courts at later dates charged with dishonestly assisting in the disposal of stolen goods and breaching their bail conditions.

Failed armed robbery

TRANSIT Crime Unit detectives are investigating an attempted armed robbery on a 20-year-old man outside the Cheltenham station earlier this month. As the man got off the train and was walking down the ramp towards Charman Rd he was approached by a man who demanded his wallet, 4am, Sunday 4 September. The victim refused and the man pulled out a knife – but did not get the man’s wallet. He then got into a taxi and was driven to the Brighton area. Police have released images of a man they believe can assist with their inquiries. He is of Middle Eastern appearance, aged about 20, 173cm tall and of medium build. He was wearing a grey hoodie, baseball cap, blue tracksuit pants, blue Asics runners and carrying a black/grey bum bag over his shoulders. Anyone with any information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report to crimestoppersvic.com.au

Crews enjoy the cruise THE good ship Enterprize sailed into Mornington harbour all shipshape and Bristol fashion on Friday – thanks to the quality seamanship of its Peninsula School crew. The eight students, with an average age of 16, had spent a “fairly wet week” out on the bay on the 1830 top-sail schooner which is a replica of the original ship which was sailed across from Launceston leading to the founding of Melbourne in 1835. The student crew sailed from Docklands to Portarlington, anchored off Blairgowrie, sailed to Geelong and then to St Leonards before berthing at Mornington. Skipper Craig Ballinger taught them basic sailing and sea craft, close quarter living and teamwork in an unfamiliar environment. The Enterprize will again visit Mornington on the second weekend in October and then every second weekend thereafter.

Splashy McSplash Town comes to PARC PENINSULA Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC) has the perfect solution for school holiday fun this September, announcing its brand new inflatable obstacle course – Splashy McSplash Town. Splashy was lovingly-named by the Frankston community after a Facebook competition that saw more than 200 entries. Measuring a whopping 22m x 22m, it is the first of its kind for aquatic centres across Victoria and will give children an exclusive water sport experience like never before. The inflatable adventure course includes a slide, climbing walls and human hamster wheel among other balancing and climbing challenges, so the kids are sure to be kept entertained. PARC Centre Manager Simon Beqir said the school holiday program was put together with both kids and parents in mind. “Planning school holiday activities can be difficult

for parents. It’s often hard to find something that not only everyone can enjoy, but won’t break the bank either, which is where we come in,” he said. “We’re putting the fun back into school holidays by giving parents a simple, exciting, and affordable option.” Families can also enjoy the range of entertainment facilities at PARC, including the award-winning AquaPlay Playground featuring exciting multi-level landings, toddler pool, and slides, and 114-metre long Constrictor raft water slide. Splashy is available for children aged 6 and up and bookings are essential. There are eight available timeslots per day at 11am, 11.30am, 12pm, 12.30pm, 1pm, 1.30pm, 2pm and 2.30pm. Parents can head online to book a spot at parcfrankston.com.au/splashtown A PARC day pass for the whole family (up to 4 guests) starts at $24.50, individual passes for children start at $6.80 and for adults $8.50. Concession entry is also available for $6.80.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Nightman not performing his duties Compiled by Melissa Walsh THE Inspector of Nuisances (Mr W. J. Stephen) reported as follows: Gentlemen - I have the honour for your information that several complaints were made by householders that the nightman had not been emptying their closet pans regularly and in one instance the pan had not been emptied for four weeks. I interviewed the contractor (Mr Purdy) on the subject and he blamed his employee for the neglect, and dispensed with his services. Since then he has put on a new man, who appears to give more satisfaction, which it is hoped will be continued, as no end of annoyance had been caused through the apparent neglect as above stated. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold a furniture sale at their rooms, Bay Street, Frankston, on Wednesday afternoon, the property of Mr. Sampson, of Mornington. The furniture consists of the contents of a large boarding house and is mostly new and well preserved, and will be sold without reserve. *** IN view of her early marriage, Miss Vita Gray has reluctently tendered her resignation as hon. secretary of the Frankston “Wattles Club”. While accepting the resignation with regret, Miss Gray has the very best wishes of the committee and members of the club, for her future happiness and prosperity. Miss Muriel Gray was appointed

PAGE 14

secretary, and Mrs Moloney and Miss Young Vice-Presidents. *** THE Gibson Pantomime Co. gave entertainment in the Mechanics Hall, Frankston, on Wednesday evening, at which there was a moderate attendance. The comedy, “Fun on a Battleship” was staged. The performers were mostly juveniles and their singing and dancing were above the ordinary for such young people. “Little Trixie” was a marvel in the way in which she was able to contort her body into all sorts of imaginable shapes. A good two hours’ entertainment was provided for those who attended. *** MR Cohen, P.M., gave a severe reprimand to a young man at the Frankston Court on Monday, for wearing military uniform without having enlisted, and stated that it was an offence that would meet with severe punishment if a civilian was brought up on a charge of wearing clothes similiar to that is by the Defence Department to the troops. The magistrate counselled the young man, if he wished to wear the clothes of a soldier to go and enlist, and fined him 20s. for the offence. *** MESSRS T. R. B. Morton and Son will sell at their rooms, 72 Swanston street, Melbourne, on Tuesday next, under instructions from the Equity Trustee Co. Ltd., 80 acres of land, being crown allotment, 78A, parish of

Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News 20 September 2016

Tyabb, being the property of the late Mr. Wm. Unthank. The property is situated two and a quarter miles from the Hastings Railway Station and fronting Kippies and D’Esterres roads. From 10 to 20 acres have been cultivated and includes an orchard of some 3 acres and a fourroomed house. The terms are easy and the property should recommend itself to anyone in search of a nice home. The sale will commence at 3 o’clock. *** MAJOR Blezard, until recently Commandant at Langwarrin, is now in charge of Domain Camp. A tribute which we hope means promotion. Genuine regret was expressed at his departure from Langwarrin. With over twenty years military experience he sailed from Australia as a Captain in the first contingent. He had the misfortune to be wounded at Gallipoli early in the landing. Invalided to Australia, he recovered sufficiently to assume command at Langwarrin. During the few months he was in command, the whole camp was transformed. He proved himself an officer of undoubted character. Very just to men willing to do their duty, if they had a mishap and a strict disciplinarian to habitual offenders. He was a man of few words which suggested much latent reserve power. Above all he possessed the saving gift of sound common-sense, which commanded respect from all. Even the prisoners of war had a kindly

word for the wounded warrior. The send off he received at the local railway station will long be remembered. A guard of honor was drawn up and while the band played farewell airs,the train carried the warrior off. Among the officers present were Capt. Conder, Lieut. Brasch, and Capt.Perl, A.M.C. Mr Archibald, President of the Langwarran Progress Association, presented the Major with a letter of thanks, on behalf of the society, and prior to his departure, the Association was considering a motion to elect him an honorary member. Although he ventured out but little, his influence was very evident. It was hoped he would remain in the peninsula for many years. Men of his type are badly needed in the country districts. *** MR J. Nott Marsh has received a warm letter of thanks from Captain Conder, Military Camp, Langwarrin, in acknowledgment of the receipt of 235 packets of cigarettes which Mr Marsh had collected from residents and visitors to Frankston and forwarded to the camp. *** LETTERS of Thanks. We are pleased to publish the following letters of appreciation which have been received by Dr Plowman, Hon. Sec. of the presentation to Frankston Soldiers funds. The writers were unable to be present to receive their medals in person. Dr Plowman,—Dear Sir.— Just a

line to thank you and all Frankston friends for the lovely medal I have received from them. I can assure you if I have the good luck to return home again I will always keep it, and think of the happy couple of years I put in at Frankston. I will say good bye for the present, as we are leaving tomorrow morning for the front, but hope to soon be back and set the ball rolling again in our beautiful little town.— Yours faithfully E. C. HAMMOND. Dr Plowman,—Dear Sir,— By the recent mail from home I learn with pleasant surprise that you have sent, on my behalf, to my parents, a presentation for enlistment. I will ask you to convey my heartfelt gratitude to the donors of good old Frankston. The only thing I regret, is that I was not amongst the boys to receive it personally. Should I have the luck to return I will wear it proudly and maybe then I will have the chance to thank you. I met a few of the Frankston boys in Egypt, and am not far from Gnr. Mat. Elliott, who is looking well. Old Von Fritz gave us a hot reception when we first took over, but we have paid him back with interest. Trusting you are all well as it leaves me at present, and again thanking you one and all. I remain, yours faithfully, GNR. H. H. ALLEN, 8289. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 23 September, 1916

All hail the Stonecats

PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt FRANKSTON YCW made it three premierships in a row and six in the past seven years after beating Mt Eliza by 22 points at Frankston Park on Sunday. The Peninsula Division champs booted seven goals to one after half time, totally controlling the last hour to win the “three-peat”. After conceding the first six goals of the game in the second semi-final against YCW, it was important that Mt Eliza got off to a good start in the big one – and they did. Mt Eliza led by four points at quarter time and when Jordan Capkin snapped a left foot goal halfway through the second quarter, the margin had blown out to 21 points. Matt Lillie was playing a pivitol role in the ruck, Rohan Heasley was winning ball in the middle, the Mt Eliza defence was standing up and the ball movement and forward structure

looked dangerous. The Redlegs needed to match YCW’s ability in contested footy and were doing the job there, as well as trying to exploit them on the outside. At the 25-minute mark of the second quarter, Mt Eliza was in total command. However, in time on, the Stonecats went coast-to-coast, Dave Bodley slipped out the back, took a mark and kicked a mark just before the half time siren. The dangerous, all-conquering Stonecats had a sniff! The message from YCW coach Scott Mathers was simply – “start taking risks and take the game on”. The Redlegs were controlling the game and playing on their terms – YCW needed to respond. As all great teams tend to do faced with adversity, Frankston YCW took a stand. Ash Eames started to will himself higher in the ruck and started to get his hands on the footy first more regularly.

Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News 20 September 2016

Best man on the ground Scott McLeod, along with Tony Lester, Kyle Hutchison and Luke Collins, started to win that contested footy and the forwards started to work harder. In the first half, YCW forwards were a little lazy, waiting for the easy ball to some to them. They worked harder in the third and the result was four third quarter goals to Anthony Bruhn. The Stonecats started to switch the play, cut the angles and move the ball through the corridor – they started to take risks. Within a blink of an eye, the 16 point half time margin was back to four points and by three quarter time, YCW had hit the front. When Zinzi Mosimaine grabbed hold of the footy from 50 metres at the Kars Street end in the opening minutes of the final quarter and converted, the game was over. YCW was dominating in all areas of the ground and Mt Eliza just could

not penetrate beyond their half forward line. Byron Barry and BJ Credlin were monumental – unstoppable! Credlin stopped Justin Van Unen completely, not just in the last half, but the entire game. YCW youngster Jake Lovett was outstanding throughout, as were fellow youngsters Michael Debenham and Matt LaFontaine. The Stonecats booted three goals to a single behind in the final quarter, the last one coming from a left footer from Bruhn on the run from 50 metres. After the game, a retiring Mathers said “this is the most wonderful feeling I have ever had in football. “We knew we needed to just stay with them and grind away, which we were able to do,” Mathers said straight after the final siren. “Our intensity needed to lift and we needed to start taking risks, which we were able to do after half time,” Mathers said. Ash Eames, who celebrated his sixth

flag, said “we just had to keep going. I thought we were able to absorb all of their pressure in the first half and then get the game on our terms in the second half. We wouldn’t get our game going or get clean footy in the first half but I’m glad we did in the second half,” Eames said. Byron Barry, who also celebrated his sixth flag, said “we made too many mistakes early. “We needed to take the game on and get some lateral movement – I thought we did that after half time,” Barry said. There have been many great teams talked about throughout the footy journey over the past 30 years – YCW in the 90’s, Edithvale, Mornington and Seaford in different eras. On Sunday, Craig Nankervis broke the MPNFL record of playing in seven premierships – a handful of others won their sixth flag. Make no mistake, this YCW footy era is the best we will see. Ever.

Hastings embraced after huge win NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt What a week it has been for the Hastings Football Club. After beating the Frankston Bombers in a memorable Nepean League Grand Final 11.15 (81) to 6.18 (54), as you would expect, the celebrations continued through the ensuring week and were felt by the whole community. The Hastings community has always embraced the Hastings Football Club and the township celebrated as one

following their first flag since 1995. Premiership coach Brendan Dunne said the “premiership feeling” started to sink in on Monday. “It wasn’t until we got together on Monday and watched the replay of the match that it really sank in,” Dunne said. “To be truthful, I don’t remember much of the game, so to see it again and then take a walk up High Street Hastings and see tears of joy in supporter’s eyes, it was such a humbling feeling.

Dunne said on reflection that he was always confident that his side would win the flag. “The type of footy we were playing, we didn’t think any team could beat us,” he said. “Red Hill has been our bogy side and when we beat them in the Elimination Final, we gained a lot of selfbelief from that. “Leading into the finals, our form was great and the Frankston game in the final round was a dead rubber as far as we were concerned. We rested

Magnificent Mornington, final fling for Heart SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie A PATCHWORK Mornington put up a magnificent fight against Altona Magic only to go down 1-0 in Saturday’s State 1 final at Jack Edwards Reserve. The game brought together the champions from both regionalised State 1 leagues but Mornington went into the clash without Simon and Scott Webster, Steve Elliott, Andrew Skledar and Chris Reid either through injury or unavailability. One of the two players on the Mornington bench was teenager Charlie Parker and coach Adam Jamieson was forced to completely revamp his defence with Chris McKenna and Danny Black as central defenders and Paul McEvoy and Nathan Yole full-backs. What proved to be the telling blow was struck in the 11th minute when Magic winger Adamson Ajayi cut in from the left and his deflected shot looped neatly over Mornington keeper Kris McEvoy and into the net. Paul McEvoy got free on the right of the Magic area in the 25th minute and was played in by Shane Tagliaferro only to shoot into the side netting and Magic striker Jon McShane should have scored from point blank range in the 36th minute but Kris McEvoy somehow got a touch and deflected the ball for a corner. Mornington striker Nick Waite was felled inside the area by the flailing elbow of Magic central defender Steven Thomson in the 39th minute but play was waved on as the Mornington bench erupted. Just before the break Waite robbed a defender on the left of the area and decided to shoot from a tight angle but Magic keeper Sebastien Bechaud parried easily at the near post. Mornington striker Brad Blumenthal was forced off at half-time with a shin injury and was replaced by Michael Freeman and the mountain Mornington had to climb grew even larger in the 66th minute after Black clattered into the back of McShane and received a second yellow and was sent off. A minute later Waite hobbled from the field and Parker was thrust into the action. Kris McEvoy was forced to tip over a McShane header in the 77th minute and three minutes later Nathan Yule came to his keeper’s rescue by heading off the line. A long throw by Paul McEvoy in the 81st minute was headed on by Chris McKenna but Magic was able to scramble the ball clear, McShane had a free header shortly after but headed over then Mornington’s Wayne Gordon hammered a firm strike from the edge of the area that forced Bechaud to punch clear. A mix-up between Thomson and Bechaud in the 89th minute allowed Gordon to nip in before being brought down inside the area and the referee immediately pointed to the spot. Paul McEvoy struck a low shot to Bechaud’s left but the keeper was able to get down and palm the ball wide and the 10 men had missed a glorious opportunity to take the contest into extra time. Rosebud Heart strolled into next weekend’s State 5 Victorian final after semi-final opponent Healesville forfeited late last week. Healesville held its annual presentation night on

the Friday before Saturday’s planned semi-final which was due for a noon kick-off. Heart gaffer Scott Morrison was an interested onlooker at Saturday’s other State 5 semi that saw RMIT triumph 2-1 after extra time against North Melbourne Athletic. Morrison is confident that Heart can maintain its perfect record and end a landmark season by winning next weekend’s final. Skye United blew a two-goal cushion in Friday night’s State 4 semi-final against Brandon Park at Skye Recreational Reserve going down 3-2 after extra time. Skye keeper Jonathan Crook was in the thick of the action early making some fine saves, two from long distance efforts by Brandon Park midfield dynamo Harrison Michaelis and Peter Smyth. Skye clawed its way back into the contest in the last 15 minutes of the half and a minute from the interval Matthew Wilson struck a stunning longrange volley from 35 metres that left Brandon Park keeper Joshua Green clutching at air to give the home side a 1-0 lead. Three minutes into the second half Brandon Park failed to deal with a long throw from the right and a close-range shot struck a defender and trickled over the line for an own goal and a 2-0 scoreline. But Brandon Park supporters had their hopes raised two minutes later when a lay-off set up Smyth on his non-preferred right foot and his firm low shot from the edge of the area beat Crook who was at full stretch. Fine close skills from James McNeill on the left in the 58th minute caught out the Skye defence but Crook parried McNeill’s 10-metre strike. The equaliser came in the 82nd minute after a cross from livewire substitute Mourad Sarian on the right was headed back across goal into the far corner by Brandon Park striker Kegham Aminian. The pivotal moment arrived 10 minutes into extra time when Aminian curled a superb strike past Crook to make it 3-2. Two minutes later Skye substitute Luke Camerota cut the ball back from the right to Alex Roberts whose firm shot was parried by Green. The Brandon Park keeper was again called into action shortly after when forced to tip over Marcus Collier’s header from a long throw-in. For much of the second half of extra time Skye pumped long balls forward and the final moments were frantic as Crook charged into the opposition penalty area to contest a corner but to no avail. Both coaches, Brandon Park’s Stan Webster and Skye’s Billy Armour, have enjoyed a lengthy friendship and embraced at the end of a gripping contest. Just 12 months earlier they had guided their respective sides to safety in a bitter relegation battle so their championship successes in 2016 represent a remarkable turnaround in their club’s fortunes. Peninsula Strikers ended the season by defeating visitor Noble Park United 2-1 on Saturday in a State 2 South-East catch-up game. Dejan Blanusa had given the already relegated Noble Park United a 1-0 lead at the interval but second half goals from Jack Carter and Tom Hawkins settled the issue. NEXT SATURDAY: State 5 final: RMIT v Rosebud Heart, 3pm, Murphy Reserve, Port Melbourne.

a few and tried a few things, which is what we achieved. “That’s when we tried Luke Clark in the middle and sent Jay Austerberry back – both moves that had a significant impact in the finals. “We also put it on a few blokes who had been out of form that needed to lift – they all did. “Local youngsters like Jake Hewitt and Steven Robb really stood up and gained great self belief. “Jamie Barnes, our fitness guy, had us going from November last year, all in

preparation for making the 2016 Grand Final – the timing was perfect.” And how was the feeling of winning a premiership? “You hear players talk about winning a flag and I always thought they added a bit of mayo to the story and feeling. I can tell you it’s the best feeling you will ever have in sport – beating the best when it matters with your mates – it’s a feeling I’ll cherish forever,” Dunne said. Dunne believes his side can improve again in 2017, which is a frightening proposition for other clubs.
