Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au WORKS to begin building a Mordialloc bypass got underway this week at the Waterways estate wetlands.

Five boreholes, 35-50 metres deep, are being drilled at possible bridge pier sites to carry out geotechnical studies into potential impacts on the environmentallysensitive wetlands.

The sudden commencement of geotechnical works, mere weeks after the Labor state government announced $300 million in funding in the 2 May state budget to build the arterial road, saw politicians don hard hats and fluoro vests for coverage by Melbourne TV news crews.

A large pontoon, from which drilling is taking place, was lifted into the wetlands by a crane. The proposed 9-kilometre Mordialloc bypass will link the Mornington Peninsula Freeway in Aspendale Gardens to the Dingley Bypass.

The government advised that VicRoads will conduct “ecological investigations to minimise potential impacts to the wetlands and the habitats”.

“These geotechnical investigations are an important step in the planning pro-

cess before building the bypass, which will slash congestion and take trucks off local roads,” Victorian Roads and Road Safety Minister Luke Donnellan said.

The government says the bypass is aimed at easing congestion during peak traffic times.

A community group Residents Against Mordialloc Freeway (RAMF) wants the government to “release data and evidence” that proves the Mordialloc bypass will alleviate traffic snarls rather than being an “environmentally devastating bottleneck”.

A change.org online petition by the group states: “A proposed freeway will run straight through the Aspendale Gardens and Waterways slice of wetlands and amazing habitat along the western side of Melbourne’s most prized natural reserve, Braeside Park.

“The proposed freeway will not only impact on the animals that live here but [also] the reason why so many frequent this area, for peace, silence and a feel of retreating back to nature.”

Mordialloc MP Tim Richardson welcomed the plan to build the bypass.

“We’re getting on with building the infrastructure that people living in Melbourne’s south east need.

Everybody cut footloose

Kinder places APPLICATIONS are now open for 2018 four-year-old sessional kindergarten places via Kingston Council’s central enrolment system.

The central enrolment point covers 27 kindergartens and allocates places based on set criteria.

Parents can nominate a top three preferred kindergartens. Over the past three years ,97 per cent of families received a place at their first choice kindergarten.

Applications for the 2018 first round allocation will be accepted until 30 June.

“Places are prioritised based on a set of criteria including proximity and prior connection to the kindergarten,” Kingston mayor Cr David Eden said.

To be eligible for funded four-year-old sessional kindergarten children must turn four by 30 April in the year they start kindergarten.

For more information about early years enrolment options, or to complete an enrolment application form, see kingston.vic.gov.au/ kindergarten or call 1300 653 356.

ARE you ready to cut loose? Footloose, that is.

Community theatre group MLOC Productions are staging a musical play based on Footloose, the 1984 musical drama movie starring Kevin Bacon.

The musical pits rebellious high school students against repressive parents and “liberal” big cities against “conservative” small towns backed by a 15 million albums selling soundtrack including the titular hit song by Kenny Loggins.

Director and choreographer Leah Osburn enjoyed bringing Footloose to life on stage.

“Having loved the movie so much in my youth I wanted to keep true to the storyline and the message the show tells about teen rebellion and grief,” she said.

“Sometimes this was challenging as a choreographer as I just wanted to focus on the music with dance.

I’m very happy with the balance we have found and the cast’s energetic portrayal of the story.” n Performances of Footloose the Musical are at Shirley Burke Theatre, 64 Parkers Rd, Parkdale on Thursday 25 May, 8pm; Friday 26 May, 8pm; Saturday 27 May, 2pm. An 8pm Saturday show is sold out.

See mloc.org.au/footloose or call the MLOC booking office on 9551 7514 for tickets.

Youths steal clothing A GROUP of Caucasian youths stole a jacket and gloves valued at $830 from the Kathmandu store, Southland, last week.

Cheltenham police were told six youths aged 15-17 entered the store, 4pm, Thursday 18 May, and moved from rack to rack inspecting clothing.

Suspicious staff then noticed that a pair of $80 gloves was missing, and watched as one of the youths took a $750 jacket off a rack. They saw him removing a tag and causing a hole in the jacket.

The youths left the store when security arrived. One was seen taking the jacket from under his coat, and running off with the rest of the group. An alarm was activated by hidden soft tags inside the jacket.

Police arrived but could not find the youths.

Lose your blues: Mollie Williams (Ariel) and Mitchell Hurrey (Wren) star in MLOC’s production of Footloose.

Crime scene: Police cordon off a Braeside factory where a body was found last week. Picture: Gary Sissons

Arrow assault at range AN Aspendale Gardens man was stabbed with an arrow during a heated confrontation at Moorabbin Archery Club at the weekend.

A Cheltenham man, 22, was allegedly shooting arrows in a dangerous manner at the range, in Turner Rd, 10.30am, Sunday 21 May. A club official, 79, approached to give some advice, but the man became aggressive and abusive towards the volunteer, a life member of the club.

The official stopped all target practice until the man left the field, which he did – but not before knocking the official’s hat off his head.

Seeing this, a man in his 40s nearby tackled the offender and both went to the ground in a scuffle broken up by bystanders.

The 22-year-old man allegedly grabbed an arrow from a quiver and lunged at the man in his 40s, striking him twice and causing minor wounds.

Bystanders restrained the offender until police arrived.

He was taken to Moorabbin police station for interview and released. He is expected to be charged on summons with assault.

Burglars on day shift CARRUM and Aspendale have been hard hit by a spate of daytime burglaries.

Chelsea police say three daylight break-ins in Stanley St, Carrum, and one in nearby Valetta St on Thursday 18 May were possibly committed by the same burglars.

Offenders climbed over a neighbour’s fence and jemmied a timber sliding door to enter a Stanley St house, between 9am-2.30pm, rifling draws in all rooms and stealing a child’s money box.

Soon after, the owner of a neighbouring house received notification on his mobile phone that a home alarm had been activated. Watching mobile footage he saw a man wearing a black jacket with grey sleeves, blue jeans and black Nike runners walk past his carport.

He called his son, who lives nearby, who con-

Golf club robbed WOODLANDS Golf Club in Mordialloc was robbed of $4000 in tools and cash overnight, Wednesday 17 May. An alarm was activated at the White St course, 2.30am, prompting the club superintendent to drive by to check locks on gates and look for signs of forced entry. He found nothing amiss.

At 4.10am the alarm was again activated and the superintendent returned to inspect the site, but again found no signs of forced entry.

However, over the next few days, staff noticed that two chainsaws, grass cutter and microscope were missing, as well as petty cash and keys.

Anyone with information about any of these incidents can provide information in confidence at crimestoppers.com.au online or by calling Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

TWO men appeared at an out-of-sessions Melbourne Magistrates’ Court hearing on Saturday charged with the murder of a former Special Operations Group police officer at Braeside, Thursday 18 May. The ex-police officer, 41, was found dead inside a Governor Rd factory on Friday – the day after his desperate family had searched for him in the industrial estate.

A 45-year-old Braeside man and a 47-year-old Rosebud man were remanded in custody to reappear at a later date.

Senior Constable Alistair Parsons, of police media, said the 45-year-old had handed himself in to police and told them where the body could be found.

Anyone with information should call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at crimestoppersvic.com.au online.

firmed the break-in and said someone had gone through all the drawers in the house and had stolen $100 cash. There was no sign of forced entry.

Burglars broke into a third Stanley St house through a side window around the same time, rummaging through draws and cupboards in all rooms.

A scaffolding contractor working opposite told police he saw two men walking up and down the street at noon. He said one of the men told him he was looking for a missing number plate for his Audi sedan which he thought could be in the street. Soon after, the contractor saw the car drive off – with both number plates attached.

The man was described as 25, unshaven, with short hair and tanned skin and wearing a short sleeve puffer jacket and blue jeans.

Carrum Senior Citizens’ Club in Valetta St was broken into the same afternoon. Members arrived to find the front door damaged, the premises ransacked and drawers rifled, although nothing was reported stolen.

Police said the offenders had moved wheelie bins to hide behind at the front entrance while they broke in through glass panels.

Nothing was stolen, although the offenders had moved a 50-inch older style TV set to the northern fire escape which they probably intended stealing. Next to it was a bag containing the TV remote control and cables.

The Aspendale break-ins occurred the next day, Friday 19 May, also in the daytime.

A Marabou Place resident returned home at 4pm to find the back door forced open and the house ransacked.

The offenders appeared to have jumped a side fence and jemmied open a set of glass doors into the lounge room. They searched through wardrobes and draws and jemmied open a small safe.

It is not known what was stolen.

A house in First Av was also broken into the same afternoon. Offenders jemmied open a door to gain entry and then rifled draws and cupboards, tipping clothing into the floor and stealing $100 in cash from a money tin.

The same day, burglars broke into a Belle Crescent, Mordialloc house, though a bedroom window. They stole a MacBook Air laptop and $400 cash. Another laptop was unplugged and placed on a bed, but not taken.

NEWS DESK Budget comment KINGSTON Council has released its 2016-17 draft budget aimed at enabling council to continue providing services, maintain infrastructure and deliver projects to strengthen the community.

Mayor Cr David Eden said the proposed draft budget would continue to build Kingston as a strong, connected community.

“We’re investing $58 million to ensure our community has access to wellmaintained quality infrastructure, that our local sports clubs are supported and that our children have access to quality early years learning,” Cr Eden said.

Cr Eden said Kingston Council, due to “its strong history of sound financial management”, is well-prepared to meet the Victorian Government’s rate capping legislation that limits average annual rate rises to 2 per cent.

“While some councils have requested an exemption to rate capping Kingston will not and has undertaken careful planning to ensure our financial future,” Cr Eden said. “We are also continuing to offer pensioners a rates rebate of $100, which is in addition to the Victorian government rebate.”

The draft budget’s $58.4 million capital works program features a wide range of projects including: n Redevelopment of Mordialloc’s Ben Kavanagh Reserve with $3 million allocated this year to continue work on a new double-storey pavilion and upgrades around the park n G.R. Bricker athletics track upgrade, $1.3 million n Edithvale Life Saving Club redevelopment, $1.6 million n Cliff Sambell pavilion development at the Gerry Green Reserve, $1.4 million n Dales Park Masterplan implementation, $1.6 million

PAGE 6

n $2 million to remediate and landscape former landfill sites in Kingston’s Green Wedge n road and footpath repairs, $6.7 million n drainage works, $3.3 million streetlight replacements, $2.9 million n $1.6 million has been allocated to continuing the Bay Trail shared walking/bike path from Mentone to Mordialloc n $1 million book stock purchases for Kingston libraries.

The draft budget can also be viewed at Council’s Customer Service Centres, at Kingston libraries and at kingston. vic.gov.au online. Written submissions on the draft budget can be submitted by 5pm, Monday 29 May at yourkingstonyoursay.com.au or by mail to Manager Finance & Corporate Performance, Kingston City Council, PO Box 1000, Mentone, 3194.

A special council meeting will be held on Monday 5 June at 7pm to consider written submissions and residents are invited to speak to their submissions at this meeting. The draft budget will be considered for formal adoption at a special council meeting on Tuesday 13 June.

Forum change A COMMUNITY forum hosted by the Aspendale Gardens-Edithvale Community Bank branch of the Bendigo Bank will now be held on Tuesday 11 July instead of 6 June.

Kingston residents are invited to meet at the Bert Thomas Pavilion (Chelsea FC club rooms), 88-120 Edithvale Rd, Edithvale on 11 July, 7pm to discuss future community projects that could be undertaken with the help of money generated by the community bank.

Landscape views boxed in PUTTING vista views in the picture is the focus of an art exhibition at Frankston Art Centre’s Cube 37 Gallery featuring the work of Chisholm TAFE students.

The Little Landscapes 9x5 Exhibition displays student artists’ paintings of Stony Point vistas on small boards inspired by the Heidelberg School of Melbourne painters who displayed works on cigar boxes first produced in 1889.

Emily Dunstan, 35, is studying for a diploma of visual arts at Chisholm TAFE in Frankston. She is “following a passion” and hopes to work as a curator in an arts gallery after graduation.

“We visited an area where the fishermen are in Stony Point that is beautiful,” she said.

“It wasn’t perfectly picturesque but the fishermen were gutting the fish and throwing gummy sharks out on to

the sand and it added a grotesque edge to it. Some people painted that.”

Students works were painted in the “en plein air” tradition of reflecting changing light and tides. n The Little Landscapes 9x5 Exhibition is on display at Frankston Arts Centre, Cube 37 Gallery, 37 Davey St, Frankston until 3 June, Tues-Fri 9am5pm, Saturdays 9am-2pm, entry free.

Sports centres ‘talks are not negotiations’ Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au QUESTIONS remain over negotiations between Mornington Peninsula Shire and a Frankston Council-established company to possibly outsource the management of peninsula sports centres remain unanswered, despite the shire pouring cold water on any such plans.

The shire posted a statement on its Facebook page last week but did not answer several questions for the second week in succession about talks with Peninsula Leisure Pty Ltd to manage Pelican Park Recreation Centre in Hastings, the Crib Point Pool, Civic Reserve Recreation Centre in Mornington and the Somerville Recreation and Community Centre (“City’s company bids to be ‘in the swim’”, The News 17/5/17).

Peninsula Leisure, the company owned by Frankston Council which operates the Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre (PARC) in Frankston and the Pines Forest Aquatic Centre in Frankston North, expressed an interest in running sports and recreation centres on the peninsula as part of “a request for proposal process” by the shire late last year.

“A front page story in today’s Mornington Peninsula News stated that ‘a

company set up by Frankston Council to manage swim centres has been negotiating with Mornington Peninsula Shire council to take over management of peninsula sports centres’,” a shire statement on Facebook said.

“Our CEO Carl Cowie has confirmed that there is no truth to this story. The shire has not nor is it now negotiating with Peninsula Leisure Pty Ltd to assume management of peninsula recreation centres.

“The shire did undertake a request for proposal process last year with several sports centre management groups submitting responses, but no decisions were made to proceed.”

Shire communications manager Mark Kestigian contacted The News to demand a retraction and insist talks are not negotiations. He said he could not answer questions about the request for proposal process “for commercial-inconfidence reasons”.

“We did let people in to come and kick the tyres,” Mr Kestigian said.

It is understood that Belgravia Leisure also notified the shire of its interest in managing shire sports centres.

Belgravia Leisure manages about “100 aquatic, sport, health and wellness facilities across Australia and New Zealand” according to its website, “partnering with over 40 local government and state government authorities”.

Belgravia Leisure did not respond to

questions about any interest in operating shire sports centres before publication deadline.

Frankston Council CEO Dennis Hovenden and PARC CEO Tim Gledhill have also not answered questions about Peninsula Leisure’s finances and any remuneration paid to Peninsula Leisure’s board of directors.

Frankston Council’s 2016-17 annual budget shows directors fees (PARC) were budgeted at $352,000 over 12 months.

The directors of Peninsula Leisure are – chair Roseanne Healy, also a director on several South Australia boards; remuneration and reward committee chair Barbara Crook; strategy and marketing committee chair David Shilbury; audit and risk committee chair Simon Allatson and Phillip Johnson, chief financial officer of South East Water.

Questions about full financial accounts for Peninsula Leisure have not been answered, but consolidated figures within Frankston Council’s annual accounts show Frankston aquatic centres made a $462,000 “loss” in 2016-17 and are expected to make a $136,000 “profit” in 2017-18.

Frankston councillors will discuss a confidential agenda item called “Peninsula Leisure Core Obligations” on Monday evening (22 May) after May’s public council meeting.

Paling into significance: David, left, and Andrew Ong with award-winning beers at the 2 Brothers Brewery. Picture: Gary Sissons

Beers top for duo’s brewery A MOORABBIN brewery has been served a double at major beers awards this month.

The 2 Brothers Brewery won two major Australian International Beer Awards taking out the gong for Best Australian Style Pale Ale for its Pay Day ale and Best Reduced or low alcohol beer for draught beer Happiness.

The brewery was founded in 2007 by brothers Andrew and David Ong. “The AIBA awards are one of the toughest competitions in the country, so to receive such esteemed recognition from our peers is truly humbling,” Andrew One said.

The co-owner said the awards were reward for the hard work by the brewing team at Moorabbin.

More than 1800 beers were judged

at the AIBA awards and 2 Brothers Brewery also lapped up a swag of gold, silver and bronze awards for its beverages in addition to the two top honours.

The brothers started the brewery after salvaging tanks from New York’s Times Square Brewery and shipping them to Melbourne. The brewery is celebrating its tenth anniversary of making high quality, natural craft beer this year.

The 2 Brothers Brewery produces about 2000 litres of beer each week, sold on tap at Melbourne bars and pubs.

The brewery’s beerhall at 4 Joyner St in Moorabbin can be visited on Thursdays 4-11pm, Fridays middaymidnight, Saturdays 12-5pm.

‘Who gives a crap’ about environment?

A YOUTH Environmental Forum at The Briars last week gave students from schools in the region the chance to learn more about human environmental impacts and solutions.

Arranged by Frankston Council, with help from the Frankston High School eco team, the day was about educating students to become better environmental leaders to educate their own school communities.

Students from Mount Erin, McClelland, Padua, Monterey and John Paul colleges and Frankston High School enjoyed the day funded by Frankston Council, ethical fashion brand Etiko and toilet tissue company Who Gives a Crap? that donates 50 per cent of its profits to building toilets in the developing world.

“It is hoped this might be the beginning of an interschool network in which students from neighbouring schools can share ideas, advice, projects -- the sky’s the limit,” Frankston High’s sustainability coordinator Brendan McKinnon said.

The Australian Youth Climate Coalition helped students form a plan of action to spread the word about how school students can look after the environment.

“We hope to reconvene as a group to find out how teams are progressing with their projects and to see that some new environmental initiatives in schools have been set in motion,” Mr McKinnon said.

Lieutenant Pentland has his leg amputated after bullet wound Compiled by Cameron McCullough MR and Mrs W. C. Pentland have been advised by cable that their son, Lieutenant W. C. Pentland, of Port Melbourne, has had to have his left leg amputated below the knee as the result of a bullet wound.

Lieutenant Pentland saw service in the Boer War. *** THE Seaford Red Cross Society has increased the amount which was made for the British Red Cross on May 12th, to £10, which amount has been forwarded to the Fund. *** MR Rogers and party of eight leading artists will give a concert, on behalf of the “Wattle” Club, in the Mechanics’ Hall tonight (Saturday.)

An unusual treat is promised those who attend and it will be money well spent. *** THE Somerville Red Cross Society will entertain 150 returned sick and wounded soldiers at luncheon on Saturday next June 2nd at 2pm.

The Langwarrin band will be in attendance, and add to the success of the function. *** RATEPAYERS are reminded that it is necessary for all rates to be paid on or before 10th June next.

The secretary will be in attendance at the principal towns in the Shire on dates mentioned in advertisement in another column up to that date for the purpose of receiving moneys due. *** “AUSTRAL” in the “Referee” in speaking, under the heading of Lawn Tennis, of soldier players at Duntroon,

makes reference to Mr Frank Plowman as one of three players of exceptional ability.

His service was splendid and scarcely anything superior in Australia outside of Norman Brookes. *** REV. E. Tonkin will conduct both Services at the Frankston Methodist Church on Sunday next.

Being Empire Sunday the services will be of a special character.

Retiring offertories will be received throughout the circuit to assist the work of the Methodist Chaplains and other agents in the various Military Camps. *** THE second winter social in aid of Tyabb Red Cross Funds, was held on Saturday evening last.

A good programme of songs was gone through Mesdames Woodhouse and Strachen, Misses Young, Benton, Woodhouse, and Messrs Denham, Westwood, R. Denham and Gibson, helped to make the social a great success.

The proceeds of the evening were sufficient to purchase the material required for a large order for handkerchiefs just received from the Central Depot.

The competition was won by Miss Benton. Again everything was donated so expenses were nil. The proceeds of next social will be given to British Red Cross. *** THE comparative merits of men and women as teachers have not been determined by the Education department.

A member of a deputation from Tyabb to the Minister of Education last week had made up his mind on the mat-

ter, and he informed Mr Lawson and the education officials that there was no question about it.

The man teacher was the teacher needed for a country school. A man he said, had more control over the boys; and – presumably by more Spartan methods was far more successful in keeping order.

He pointed, in support of his contention, to the fact that his three sons were on active service and to train up such a stamp of lad he thought that the man teacher was needed.

The Minister, while promising consideration of the views of the deputation, which concerned the proper site for the Tyabb school, did not undertake to give a definite ruling on the question of the comparative merits of men and women as teachers. For, Mr Laswon and his officials admit, there are teachers and teachers. *** IMPORTANT to Soldiers. RATES OF PAY. To remove a misconception which has arisen in some quarters, special attention is directed to the fact that in the ‘Recruiting Ready Reconer” published by the authority of the State Recruiting Committee, the rates of pay and pension specified for married men in the A.I.F. include what the soldier himself draws as well as the amount paid to the family of the soldier.

It is also desired to point out that in addition to the amount drawn during the absence of a soldier from the Commonwealth, deferred pay of 1s per day, amounting to £18 5s per year, is payable to a soldier on his return to Australia. Any promotion from the rank of Private, means a corresponding increase all round.

*** Frankston Court of Petty Sessions.

Monday 21st May, 1917. (Before Mr Cohen, P.M., and Messrs Williams, Oaes, Grant and Crawford, JsP. UNLAWFUL ASSAULT. Mrs V. F Wells was charged with an unlawful assault on Miss Dora Keane, a State School teacher, on 3rd of May. Mr Utber appeared for the prosecution and Mr Cook for the defence.

The defendant pleaded guilty, under provocation.

Dora Keane deposed that she remembred the 2nd of May. Was on the Melbourne road on that day.

Saw the boy, Aleck Wells in the front garden at his father’s house.

When she was passing he coughed loudly and whistled, of which action she took no notice, but walked on.

Next morning at school Miss Keane called the boy out, and told him that he had been rude to her on the previous evening and remarked that she had often heard of gutter snipe children behaving rudely to a lady on the street, but she did not expect it in Frankston.

Miss Keane then informed the head teacher of the boy’s conduct and he repremanded the boy.

On the evening of the 3rd May, was proceeding home about 5 o’clock, and when near Beach St saw a woman walking slowly in front of her.

On getting close to her the woman turned round, and said, “You are the person who got my boy a thrashing” and then rushed at the complainant, and struck her a violent blow on the face, knocking parcels she was carrying on the road.

The accused struck her three times, and also said that she had called her

boy a gutter snipe.

One of the parcels was lost, and has not since been recovered. The complainant then reported the matter to Constable Ryan, who accompanied her to accused’s home.

On being questioned by the constable she admitted having assualted the complainant and said she would do it again, remarking that she might as well be killed for a sheep as a lamb.

To Mr Cook–When the elder boy brought a letter to the complainant, from his mother she asked what was in the letter, and he said his mother said she must not strike his younger brother, Reggie.

She told the boy to tear the letter up and throw it in the waste paper basket.

The coughing of the boy in the garden was not the result of a cold.

Const Ryan substantiated what the complainant had said with regard to the conversation that took place with Mrs Wells after the assault.

Alick Wells, a boy eleven years of age, on oath remembered Miss Keane passing the garden on the evening of the 2nd May, but denied coughing or jeering at her.

If he coughed at all it was the result of a cold.

The Bench said that such conduct could not be allowed. If Mrs Wells thought she had a greviance against a teacher, the proper course would be to complain to the head teacher, and then if not satisfied, to the Education Department.

A fine of 40s with 23s 6d costs was inflicted. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 26 May 1917

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Tales of the BHD (Big Hairy Dog)

By Stuart McCullough FOZZIE is big. She’s a Bernese Mountain Dog and I’ll be the first to admit that the name is apt. Once, I thought the term ‘Mountain Dog’ was a reference to where she came from. Now I know it’s a description of her size. She’s humungous. Every time I take her for a walk and I see other people’s dogs, I’m reminded as to how large our canine is. More than forty kilos of tail-wagging hairiness in total. It’s not exactly what I signed up for.

There were strict rules when we were growing up – no animals were allowed inside. My brothers and I were the only exception to this rule.

The occasional incursion by a dog that took its chance to bolt through an open door across the slate into the family room was treated with all the alarm of a full-scale invasion by an enemy state. My father would adopt his ‘serious voice’, which is a full half-octave lower than his speaking voice and terms such as ‘here’ and ‘get out’ were issued in short, staccato stabs that were intended to let the errant beast know that resistance was futile and that it should vacate the premises immediately. It never worked.

In Tyabb, dogs belonged outside.

Often, the family pet would take up residence on the mat immediately outside the door. That way, the creature would always know when people were coming or going. For years, we had a mongrel of uncertain origin named Monte who used to chase the car a few hundred metres along the

gravel drive until, eventually, his advancing age saw him settle for a wag of the tail and a few steps for old time’s sake. As beloved as Monte was, he was never permitted to set paw on slate inside the house. But beyond the front door, everything he could see was his. The yard and the paddocks were his kingdom. He was the lord of all he surveyed.

In truth, I’d made some assumptions. When talk turned to getting a dog, I naturally thought the dog would be living outside the house. Granted, there’d be those early weeks when, as a puppy, she’d be in the laundry and we’d tend to her every need. But, surely, within a relatively short period of time, she’d be outside, commanding the lawn and terrorizing the potted plants. Things have not quite turned

out that way.

Little did I know that by adding a third member to our household, I was altering the balance of power. I am now often out voted. Previously, stalemates were settled either with the toss of the coin or elegant surrender.

No more. The dog and my wife have formed a powerful voting-bloc that bands together on contentious issues ranging from what we’ll have for dinner through to how we should renovate the bathroom. In short, I now get rolled on a regular basis. There is no better example of this substantial shift in power than the fact that the dog lives indoors.

Let me be clear – by ‘live indoors’, I don’t mean sitting on a special mat.

Fozzie appears to have the run of the house. The dog is not allowed on the

couch. But it’s not uncommon to enter the room and find her spread out and watching ‘Pointless’ on channel 2 (honestly, I don’t know what she sees in that show). She also sleeps wherever she likes; and I often hear her enter the room in the middle of the night before a gentle ‘thud’, indicating that she’s decided to plonk herself down.

It would be completely charming were it not for the fact that she snores.

Loudly. At her worst, her nocturnal snorting can rattle the windows like a freight train would if it were passing through the front garden.

Our neighborhood has lots of dogs.

Problem is, they love nothing more than talking to each other. This usually involves Fozzie standing at the flywire screen and bellowing out to her pals. I blame myself. Had I

bought her the iPhone she wanted for Christmas, I suspect our house would be a lot quieter.

But for all my misgivings, I’ve learned a lot from my dog. She’s extremely loyal. When I get up early, so does Fozzie. We eat breakfast together and she returns to bed as I head off to work. And when I get home at night, she’s always waiting by the door to greet me. She’s also tremendous company when you’re home alone or out for a walk. Being as big as she is, she’s either a source of fascination or fear for strangers. Luckily, Fozzie is extremely friendly and greets strangers as though they were long-lost friends. The only exception to her gregarious nature comes when delivery people arrive on the doorstep. I fear that Fozzie’s baritone bark has left more than one pair of undergarments the worse for wear.

Since Fozzie arrived, I’ve spoken to more strangers than I had in the forty years previous. She’s stimulates a lot of conversation. There’s also something about her nature that makes that all a lot easier, somehow. I like walking with the BHD. I look forward to the moment when, each morning, she emerges into the kitchen and expects me to make her breakfast just as I’m making mine. Quickly and without expecting it to be the case, Fozzie is a now part of our household. Things just wouldn’t be the same without her. Frankly, she can sleep where she likes. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

BAKERSFIELD MIST “Miracles happen. Don’t they?” Starring Gold Logie Award winner John Wood and Julie Nihill, Bakersfield Mist is a provocative and hilarious look at what makes art – and people – authentic.

Based on a true story, Bakersfield Mist is a comedy set in the present day. Maude (Julie Nihill), an unemployed bartender, has bought a painting for a few bucks from an opp shop.

Despite almost trashing it, she now thinks it’s a Jackson Pollock worth millions. In fact she’s certain it is.

But when world-class art expert, Lionel Percy (John Wood), flies over from New York and arrives at her trailer park home in Bakersfield

to authenticate the painting, he really has no idea what he’s about to discover.

“Inspired by true events, this sparkling and colourful new comedy-drama asks vital questions about what makes art and people truly authentic.” The Telegraph “A thoroughly entertaining 85 minutes of quipping arguing, boozing, opining, fistfighting and soul-baring.” The Times.

Sharks break hoodoo against YCW PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt BONBEACH snapped a long-time hoodoo on Saturday by knocking over the previously undefeated Frankston YCW. It seems the country championships bye gave the Sharks the time it needed to overcome its miserable loss to Seaford and bounce back against the league leaders, winning 12.17 (89) to 9.9 (63).

Frankston YCW hasn’t been setting the world on fire this season but has been winning games of footy.

On Saturday against the Sharks, the Stonecats were jumped in the opening quarter and smashed in the second half in what was Luke Damon’s final game after he announced his retirement after a brilliant career.

Bonbeach could have quite easily been a lot further in front at the first change but despite having six more scoring shots, only led by six points after kicking with the breeze.

Despite trailing by three points at halftime, Bonbeach had restricted the opposition against the breeze and set themselves up nicely for a big third term.

With Dylan Jones dominating in the middle and when he moved forward and Jackson Casey and Gary Carpenter setting things up across half-back, the Sharks were able to boot five unanswered goals in the third and go in at the change with a 35-point lead.

Trent Dennis-Lane (three goals) was causing some headaches in attack and Gavin Vassallo was also proving to be a handful for the opposition.

The Stonecats, as expected, hit back in the final term with three majors but Bonbeach was able to answer the chal-

lenge with a couple of their own.

The domination of the Sharks was highlighted by the fact it had 29 scoring shots to 18 – this rarely happens against the Stonecats.

Ryan Santon was one of YCW’s best with three goals while Luke Paynter and Kevin Lylak worked hard in defence.

Bonbeach coach Steve Hughes said on Sunday morning that “coffee always tastes better on a Sunday when you win”.

“It was a really good day for us, we played really well,” Hughes said.

“We probably got them at a good time with a few of their stars playing VFL but we did play very well.

“It’s not often that you walk out of Jubilee Park with the four points.

“We got our right whack against Seaford a couple of weeks ago. We were just going and they rightfully beat us comfortably.

“The week off was good and I was really happy with the maturity of the group. Everyone had an impact and whilst our good players continue to play well, we didn’t leave it all up to them to get the job done,” Hughes said.

Mt Eliza’s woes continued in more ways than one on Saturday, beaten by Edithvale-Aspendale after the game was called off early in the last quarter.

In shocking scenes at Wooralla Drive, talented youngster Brody Shaw suffered a compound fracture of his leg and laid motionless and in horrific pain on the ground while it took more than 30 minutes for an ambulance to arrive.

The game was called off with the scoreboard reading 8.17 (65) to 8.9 (57).

The Eagles led by two points at threequarter time and kicked the opening goal of the final quarter.

The Redlegs have now lost to Chelsea

and Edithvale in the past three weeks.

Coming off a grand final last season and after one full season under new coach Troy Shannon, it was expected that the Redlegs would be the main threat in 2017.

Whilst Saturday’s loss was unusual, it was still a loss. Truth be told, Mt Eliza doesn’t even look threatening right at the minute.

Aaron Edwards booted nine goals in Pines’ big 17.16 (118) to 9.9 (63) win against Karingal.

After carrying a niggling injury over the past month, Edwards looked at his best on Saturday and completely dominated. Lachy Marshall was again outstanding for the Pythons also.

Pines now sits on top of the Peninsula ladder.

Chelsea made it three wins on the trot on Saturday, smashing Langwarrin by almost six goals.

The Gulls had previously won 10 games in four seasons and celebrated hard on Saturday night after its third straight win. Todd Gardner dominated for the Gulls with a couple of goals and Jack Francis was on fire with four goals.

The hapless Kangaroos are at an alltime low with zero wins in six matches.

One really does wonder what has happened to this once powerful club. The envy of all clubs given its junior depth, the Langwarrin FC is nothing more right now than the butt of opposition jibes.

Seaford continued its domination, beating Mornington by 27 points.

The Tigers set-up the win with a blistering first term, booting seven goals to one.

Mornington rallied over the next three quarters but still went down 13.12 (90) to 18.9 (117).

Blues ‘are the team to beat’ after big win NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt HASTINGS proved it is still the side to beat in MPNFL Nepean Division after dishing out a convincing hiding to Red Hill on Saturday.

Clearly the match of the round, it seemed to be heading in that direction at half-time when the margin was three points.

However, the reigning premier turned up the heat in the second half and the home side couldn’t match it, losing 15.9 (99) to 8.13 (61). Hastings booted 11 goals to four after half-time.

The Hillmen’s sure ball handling and domination from half back and through the middle was non-existent, as Hastings stayed disciplined, structured and too powerful all over the ground.

Rarely are Red Hill’s young defensive guns in Michael Mock and Jonah Siverson beaten but Shaun Foster and Luke Hewitt had the better of the pair on Saturday.

The run from half back was there for the Hillmen but they continually turned the footy over and overused the handball to players under pressure.

The home side continually blazed away into their forward line, only to find the arms of Lance Brouwer, Paul Rogasch and Brendan Dunne, who set up brilliantly, while Jay Austerberry mopped up everything.

Aaron Vinson has grown into a good young defender and beat both Jayden Pain and Danny Allsop, while Jake Hewitt continues to impress. His re-

Blues prove a point: Hastings thumped Red Hill at the weekend and are on the rise.

Pictures: Andrew Hurst

bound off half back was first class yet again and he was awarded with the RPP best onfield award.

Through the middle, Josh Mulherron had the better of his younger opponent and his onball brigade delivered.

Luke Smith was outstanding all afternoon, but especially in the first quarter, while Mark Devereaux and Nathan Gray dominated.

The midfield depth of the Blues is impressive with David Hirst, Luke Clark and Ricky Ferraro also going through there.

Both Clark and Ferraro wore the dangerous Chris Irving like a glove and re-

stricted his brilliance around the footy.

Hirst was also very dangerous in attack.

A disappointed Red Hill coach Tony Blackford said after the match that the Blues were “just too good”.

“They are really strong all over the ground and they proved once again that we’re still just a bit off it,” Blackford said.

“We planned for their set-up and structures in defence but we just couldn’t execute.

“You can plan as much as you like but of the opposition make it hard and your players can’t hit the targets and execute, planning goes out the window.

“Hastings are a very disciplined side and they are much better positioned now than where they were this time last year.

They have to be the side to beat,” Blackford said.

Hastings coach Brendan Dunne said his side was “starting to play some good footy”.

“We were very good today and are playing some good footy,” Dunne said.

“We played very well against Dromana a few weeks ago and that has really set us up.

“There’s some good depth and everyone is playing the role that we want them to play,” Dunne said.

Dromana had 12 goal kickers in its 19.18 (132) to 15.11 (101) shootout against Pearcedale.

Zac Muschialli played his best game for the Tigers since crossing from Edithvale while Adam Hunter booted three majors.

Harry Prior was Pearcedale’s best while Matt Cottrell booted four majors.

Frankston Bombers had 42 scoring shots against Crib Point and eventually won by 72 points, 18.14 (132) to 9.6 (60).

The Magpies went toe to toe with the Bombers in the first half and trailed by just seven points at half-time.

Pines sack Rae, Strikers dump Parrella SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie FRANKSTON Pines sacked Billy Rae as head coach last week and appointed assistant Paul Williams in his place.

When Rae took over at the end of the 2015 season he worked hard to bring Williams and goalkeeping coach Lee Davies to the club as his support staff.

Rae and the club also agreed to a two-year succession plan which would see Williams take over at the end of the current season.

Rae mentored Williams giving him a more hands-on role than that usually given to assistants.

But with Pines lying second bottom in State 2 South-East the committee decided to fast-forward the succession plan by elevating Williams to the senior role with Davies as his assistant.

The club also axed reserves coaches Richard Permal and Jack Thompson and offered Rae the reserves role which he rejected.

Davies now also looks after the reserves.

Prior to last week’s upheaval, the club sounded out Mornington assistant Dale Lewis and Bentleigh Greens under-20s coach Patrick Thompson without success and had canvassed a select group of senior players about the coaching set-up.

The committee claimed that there was confusion among the playing group as to who was in charge, a claim Rae vigorously rebuked.

“It had been explained to the players all along that I was giving Paul leeway to do things and they all knew I was leaving at the end of the year so I told the committee that any idea that there was confusion among the players was bullshit,” said Rae. The Williams and Davies reign got off to a flyer with a 1-0 away win over Old Scotch on Saturday, a result which lifted Pines out of the relegation zone.

Sebastian Gueho’s flick on in the 24th minute sent Jack Wrobel through and he finished off the decisive move of the contest.

Pines have ended negotiations with Mauritian club AS Rivière du Rempart over the signing of international forward Christopher L’Enclume.

It is believed that the Mauritian club wants $6500 for L’Enclume but Pines were prepared to pay $2500.

L’Enclume has trained with Springvale White Eagles and Casey Comets but Comets coach Jamie Skelly confirmed on the weekend that his club would not be signing him.

Fellow South-East 2 outfits Peninsula Strikers and Seaford United both lost on Saturday, Strikers going down 1-0 away to Beaumaris while Seaford lost 3-2 at home to Eltham Redbacks.

A Grant Davies own goal as he was attempting a clearance separated the sides at Beaumaris Reserve but the big news from Centenary Park is that the club is negotiating with a player from Panama and has parted company with Italian import Leandro Parrella.

The Panamanian can play wide left or up front and Strikers contacted him through player agency Soccer Smart.

Parrella was one of three players imported for this season through Soccer Smart but his association with the club has ended on a sour note.

“As far as we’re concerned Leandro is trying to engineer a move to Werribee so he will never play for us again,” said Strikers gaffer Craig Lewis.

Harry McCartney reports that Eltham Redbacks opened the scoring in the 30th minute at North Seaford Reserve following a long ball downfield which prompted Seaford keeper Enes Umal to charge off his line only to lose a footrace with Matthew Filonzi who rounded the keeper and tapped the ball into the unguarded goal.

In the 58th minute, Eltham failed to deal with an Alex Roberts cross from the left and substitute Dylan Waugh got the final touch to make it 1-1.

Waugh’s attempted cross in the 85th minute took everyone by surprise as it made its way through a crowded

penalty area into the bottom left-hand corner of the Eltham goal to make it 2-1.

Referee Yoav Fisher ruled that Eltham’s Dylan Colaci had got the final touch and he was credited with an own goal.

One minute into injury time referee Fisher pointed to the spot after the ball had struck a Seaford defender on the forearm and Gianni Falzon converted to make it 2-2.

But in the 93rd minute, Pierre Equipart broke the hearts of the home team’s fans with a superb strike that gave Umal no chance.

Langwarrin maintained its unbeaten record and still heads the State 1 South-East table after a 1-1 home draw with Manningham United on Saturday.

Langy’s gun striker Liam Baxter opened the scoring in the 31st minute but Franc Carafa levelled 11 minutes into the second stanza.

Langy defender John Guthrie was sent off after a second yellow card in the 65th minute and Carafa received a straight red in the 79th minute.

Manningham had the better of the second half and created enough opportunities late in the contest to have grabbed all three points.

Boris Ovcin (overseas) and Caleb Nicholes (interstate) are unavailable for Langwarrin’s derby showdown with Mornington next weekend.

Spectators at Dallas Brooks Park last Saturday are still trying to make sense of the final 11 madcap minutes of Mornington’s 3-3 draw with Caul-

field City.

Ryan Paczkowski had arrived back in Melbourne just a few hours before kick-off after attending his grandfather’s funeral in England but he made Caulfield’s defence look like it was suffering from jetlag.

With four minutes gone he went to ground with Marcus Slimane’s hands on his shoulders and referee Hary Milas pointed to the spot.

Paczkowski converted with ease and he put Mornington in cruise control in the 37th minute with a sublime curled strike with his cultured left foot that had Caulfield custodian Dennys Martin clutching at thin air.

Four minutes into the second half Wayne Gordon burst through but Martin was able to smother then gather and a great chance had gone begging.

In the 78th minute, Oscar Knight went close to opening Caulfield’s account but his strike from inside the area forced Mornington keeper Kris McEvoy into a full-length dive to gather.

Caulfield’s fightback started in the 83rd minute when Joe Summerbell’s deep cross from the left was headed down firmly and inside the far post by Caulfield striker Cort Kibler-Melby.

In the 87th minute, Mario Hofmann was tripped inside the area and Summerbell converted the resultant penalty on the rebound to make it 2-2.

Caulfield fans were still congratulating each other when Mornington went forward straight from the restart and substitute Simon Mur’s opportunistic strike from 10 metres made it 3-2.

But Caulfield continued to press and Kibler-Melby got free in the 94th minute of an enthralling contest to complete the unlikely scoreline.

Skye United’s undefeated run in State 3 South-East ended on Saturday after a lacklustre performance at home against Noble Park United.

Skye found the lead early after Lawrence Komba capitalised on a defensive error in the 24th minute however the sides went into the half-time interval locked together after a deadly free-kick from Sasa Vranesevic in the 42nd minute.

Early in the second half Vranesevic struck again after he tapped in the rebound from his initial shot.

When Zlatko Stokic made it 3-1 after a well worked corner routine the game looked dead and buried but Komba gave the hosts hope after he headed home a Jason Nowakowski cross in the 63rd minute.

But Noble Park’s Leigh Karavasil made it 4-2 in the 70th minute after

Sudoku and crossword solutions

breaking through the Skye defence and slotting past Jonathon Crook.

Noble Park ended the game with nine men after Slavko Grujic was dismissed in the 78th minute and Dejan Karac received his marching orders two minutes later.

Rosebud Heart knocked Springvale City off the top of the State 4 South ladder with a stirring 4-3 home win on Saturday.

Dave Greening broke clear in the 25th minute and squared to Mikey Turner for the opener then Greening was put through after Daniel Hodge bravely won possession and Heart went in 2-0 up at the break.

Two minutes into the second half an Arnel Zahirovic volley following a corner made it 2-1 and a 57th-minute free kick by Damir Rizvic eluded Sean Skelly in the Heart goal for the leveller.

Heart then missed three one-onones before Turner raced clear and his parried shot was toe-poked home by Greening to restore Heart’s lead.

Springvale striker Graham Glynn made it 3-3 from the penalty spot but in the 89th minute Greening skipped clear of a defender and slotted home the winner.

It was his 100th goal for Heart in just 51 games.

Baxter beat Hampton Park United 3-2 at Baxter Park on Saturday with goals from Jake Kidder (25th minute), Heath Goss (40th) and Liam Kilner (47th).

Hampton Park’s scorers were Adrian Miranta (13th) and Daniel Milne (55th).

Miranta was sent off in the 77th minute for a second bookable offence while teammate Aziz Salim received a straight red in the 16th minute.

Somerville Eagles are anchored to the foot of the State 5 South ladder following Saturday’s 5-1 home loss to Bunyip Districts.

Stephan Mgoneh (2), Jody Cooper, Spencer Nebel and Fleming Isorua scored for Bunyip while Liam Morgan scored for Somerville.

Bombers make history with dominant debut

She-llacking: Frankston Bombers women’s side had a 169-point debut victory over Morwell East.

By Ben Triandafillou THE Frankston Bombers made history on Sunday 7 May, triumphing in all eight of their football and netball matches over the weekend, including the women’s football side’s dominant debut victory.

Joining the AFL South Eastern women’s development league, the Frankston Bombers (24.26.170) recorded their first victory with a 169-point win over Morwell East (0.1.1) at Morwell’s home ground.

“It was the women’s team’s first game, first win and first year playing

in the women’s league,” Frankston Bomber’s club secretary Cheryl Cameron said.

“Cassie Vandervalk kicked the first two goals which will go down in history.”

“Sarah Astone and Jasmine Hunt were also women who stood out but everyone really made an impact in the game.”

“It was a pretty good crowd and we also had Alex (Nation) from The Bachelor in the side.”

“She hadn’t played football before and was able to kick a goal.”

The women’s side was registered late last year and has grown to a full list with about 30 women.

“Half of our team hadn’t played before but some of them are actually some of our better players,” Cameron said.

The victory over Morwell East tipped off a perfect weekend for the Bombers with the seven football and netball sides picking up wins on Saturday 6 May at Rye. “We’ve had a total of seven teams win over a weekend but have never had eight, which is amazing,” Cameron said.

Mordialloc midfielders join Southern netballers

By Ben Triandafillou MORDIALLOC netballers, Lucy McKeown and Alana Harris, joined the Southern netball inter-league side for a testing match against Central Highlands last Saturday 13 May. The Mordialloc midfielders played their first match for the inter-league side with McKeown also getting the opportunity to co-captain the side with St Kilda City goal attack, Jessica Jones.

The debutants combined with familiar faces from the Southern netball league to face the determined Highlands side at Marriott Waters Reserve, Lyndhurst.

Southern came out firing in the first quarter scoring the first two goals until the Highlands side kicked into gear to lead 17-9 at quarter time.

Southern kept coming out strong in each quarter but it seemed to only fuel the Highlands as they fought back to lead 32-20 at half-time.

It was a tight third-quarter with both teams returning serve but the Highlands put together a late string of goals to end the third term 47-29.

It went downhill for Southern after three-quarter time as the Highlands quickly pulled away, putting another four consecutive goals on the board at the start of the final quarter.

To make matters worse, McKeown

was forced to come off after a solid performance at wing defense due to a calf-injury.

“She’ll be out for several weeks which isn’t good - her team will miss her,” Southern netball coach Melanie Starr said.

Highlands finished the match out strongly defeating a gallant Southern side 71-39.

“Both (Harris and McKeown) played brilliantly,” Starr said.

“The team played really well, I couldn’t fault them as they tried hard all game.”

“We were just beaten by a stronger team on the day.”

Who is Tom?

HASTINGS Football Club historian, Vic Jeremiah, is hoping to identify a Hastings local by the name of “Tom” about a recent post in the Herald Sun’s 50/50 column.

The post on 12 May was about legendary footballer, John Coleman, who the Coleman Medal is now named after and who also started out playing in Hastings.

Tom wrote about the ‘spectacular’ mark which is now a statue on High

St, Hastings and Coleman’s impressive debut in the VFL kicking 12 goals, setting the ‘standard for a mighty career’.

With little information to go on, Jeremiah would be grateful to hear from anyone who can help identify ‘Tom’.

Contact Vic Jeremiah on 59 792720 if you have any information that could help identify this mysterious man.
