Plans for cemetery laid to rest Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au A PLAN to construct a cemetery on Green Wedge land in Heatherton has collapsed. Kingston mayor Steve Staikos announced that the Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust had recently advised
council that it now has no plans to proceed with a cemetery in Kingston’s Green Wedge. “This is great news as that area is some of Kingston’s best agricultural land and is home to a number of productive market gardens, which have been a key part of the Kingston landscape for decades,” Cr Staikos said. “Council wants to see local market
gardens continue for years to come. While we appreciate that the Trust needs to provide burial sites for our city, this just wasn’t the right location. “This part of the Green Wedge is lowlying and flood prone. It would have had to be covered by several metres of fill, which would have buried much of the agricultural land. This would have required many years of earthworks before
anyone could actually be buried there. “At present, uncertainty wreaks havoc on the property market. Potential investors are discouraged from moving into the Green Wedge with the prospect of compulsory acquisitions looming large over the land.” In 2015 the Southern Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust had advised Kingston Council that it was considering acquir-

ing approximately 130 hectares of land in Heatherton to develop the memorial park. The Kingston mayor at the time Geoff Gledhill signalled his support for the project. The proposed cemetery was earmarked for the area bordered by Kingston and Boundary Roads, Pietro, Madden, Old Dandenong Road and Ross Street.

Cash set to be splashed on sports Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au SPORTS facilities have been the flavour of this week’s election promises, as the state Labor government pledged over $7 million in funding across two different local grounds. Roy Dore Reserve in Carrum is set to receive $800,000 in already budgeted funding to put towards a new female friendly pavilion complete with appropriate facilities, with an extra $3.2 million to kick in under a re-elected Labor government. The total of $4 million is also expected to be used for a new tennis pavilion, new lights, new scoreboards, and an upgrade of fencing. Roy Dore Reserve is currently used by nearly 1500 people, and is home to local clubs including the Carrum Cricket Club, the Carrum Patterson Lakes Football Netball Club, and the Melbourne Thunder Touch Rugby side. “Whether it’s watching the mighty Carrum Patterson Lakes’ Lions or a kick to kick on the weekend, I know how much this upgrade will mean to local families. Community sports is all about bringing people together. With this investment, we’ll help make Carrum’s sporting club, and local community, stronger than ever,” said Carrum MP Sonya Kilkenny. The Aspendale Stingrays Soccer Club could also receive funding after the November election, with the state Labor government also promis-

ing $4.5 million to help them move to a new home ground. The new ground would be based at Kerr Crescent Reserve in Aspendale Gardens. There are currently over 600 junior members of the soccer club, which
plays across four different sites. Premier Daniel Andrews visited the club, and said “this new home ground will mean the next generation of Stingrays’ stars will have the facilities they deserve, including the growing number of girls joining the

Life saving and head shaving KATE Bell from the Peninsula Branch of the Victoria Police Blue Ribbon Foundation was joined by local police members to shave her head for fundraising. Detective acting sergeant Glenn Holland was present, along with two police members from Carrum Downs Police Station and two members from Chelsea. The event took place in the same week as Blue Ribbon Day and National Police Remembrance day, remembering fallen police officers. The Peninsula Branch lay a wreath at the Frankston Police Station on 29 September to commemorate the event. The head shaving event took place at Patterson Lakes Woolworths, and Blue Ribbon Foundation thanked the supermarket chain for being their biggest sponsor. Woolworths have raised $1.4 million for the foundation over the last three years.
“We said we’d provide new light-

LONG awaited works to repair and reopen Seaford pier have finally begun. Parks Victoria is currently undergoing upgrade works on the pier, which has been partly closed to the public since late 2016. Carrum MP Sonya Kilkenny confirmed in March that works would be undertaken to “fix” the pier, but did not give a timeline for the process. The upgrades underway are expected to be completed by November, the same month as the state election. The works will include the replacement of 50 timber piles, crossheads, beams, decking and handrails. The pier will be shut during the process, and the northern section of the car park for the Beach Cafe and Seaford Life Saving Club will also be closed. The Times reported on 28 May that the bill to repair and restore the pier would total $900,000. (“Pier bill nears million mark”, The Times 28/5/18)

Seaford Road open for traffic SEAFORD Road has been reopened to the public after the completion of level crossing removal works. The removal of boom gates had seen the busy road and some nearby parking spaces closed for six weeks.

Arrest of man who ‘shouldn’t be there’ A LITTLE girl ran into her mother’s bedroom at their home in Seaford and told her a man was in the house who “shouldn’t be there”, 4.15am, Wednesday 26 September. The woman told police she confronted the man who turned and calmly walked off along Seaford Road. Police arrived with the Dog Squad who arrested a Mt Martha man, 46, nearby. He was allegedly found with items from the house, including a handbag and keys. He may have entered through an unlocked internal door from the garage. Detective Senior Constable Peter Morris, of Frankston CIU, said the man was facing a string of charges, including aggravated burglary of the woman’s home, a burglary at a house in Mahoney Crescent, Seaford, as well as theft from a car and another case of theft. He was remanded in custody to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court, Wednesday 3 October.
Charges over fight THREE men have been arrested following the alleged assault of two security guards at The Sands hotel, Carrum Downs, in the early hours, Saturday 25 August. Detective Senior Constable Darren Paxton, of Frankston CIU, said a male security guard attempting to eject the men and a woman was knocked out and stomped on the head while he was on the ground. A second security guard was also allegedly assaulted. The guards were taken to Frankston Hospital: one with a broken jaw, cuts and swelling, the other with a broken nose, cuts and swelling. Detective Paxton said three men, aged 26, 23 and 18, were arrested at a Carrum Downs house, Wednesday 19 September. They were charged with affray, intentionally and recklessly causing injury, assault in company and assault by kicking. They have been bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court in January.
Repeat drug-driver A 34-YEAR-OLD Somerville woman who tested positive to methamphetamines while driving her three young children to school on Tuesday morning 18 September had to leave the car and walk her children to school. Suspecting that the message “might
The bike was impounded and the rider is expected to be summonsed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on multiple traffic charges at a later date.
Search for owners THE owner of an “item of value” left among clothing in a black plastic bag in a donation bin at a Somerville charity store, Monday 17 September, is being sought by police. They are asked to call the property officer at Hastings police station 5970 7800. Stolen items including tools, two cars and two motorbikes were recovered during a police raid on a Seaford house, Friday 21 September. An old Australia Post-type Honda motorbike was among the items. A 29-year-old Seaford man has been bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on numerous charges, including burglary, theft, theft of-and-from motor vehicles, and handling stolen goods at a later date. Anyone missing a “postie” bike should call Senior Constable Caddy, Southern Metro Crime Team, on 9767 7440.
not have sunk in”, Somerville Highway Patrol police sat off the same spot before school the next day (Wednesday) and saw someone come out of the house twice to look up and down the street. Police believe they may have been spotted because, a short time later, a taxi arrived to collect the children. To check that the Don’t-DrugDrive message had sunk in, the patrol stopped by the area again on the Thursday and, a short time later, they intercepted the same woman who again tested positive for methamphetamines. Existing legislation does not allow for the immediate suspension of a driver’s licence, or the impounding of a vehicle under these circumstances. However, police say they expect the woman’s licence to be suspended for a minimum of six months upon confirmation of the laboratory results. Police say the Frankston-Mornington Peninsula Shire council areas have one of the highest drug-driving detection rates in the state. “If you are drug driving, it’s not a matter of if you’ll be detected, it’s a matter of when,” they said. “Don't take the risk of having a collision or losing your licence.”
Station lock down ROSEBUD police station was put into lock down, Wednesday 19 September, when a man in a “highly aggressive” state threatened and taunted police from the reception area, 7.25pm. After a confrontation the man, of no fixed address, was arrested, lodged in the cells, and assessed for drugs. He was then taken to hospital for a psychiatric evaluation. Charges are pending.
Monkey bike seized SOMERVILLE Highway Patrol members and Frankston Council staff worked together last week to nab the rider of a monkey bike seen riding in the Seaford Wetlands. The riders are unwelcome because they cause damage to the wetlands and equipment, with a ranger onsite at the time repairing 13 locks suspected to have been broken by the riders. Police monitoring the Seaford North Primary School speed zone in nearby Airlie Grove, saw a monkey bike
Fire alarm ‘rescue’
coming from the wetlands which failed to stop for them as directed, Thursday 20 September. They and the council officer followed the rider to a nearby house and found the bike hidden in a garage with the engine still warm. It was towed away and will be crushed if the $800 release fee is not paid. Parents picking up their children, and the school principal, were reportedly pleased with the police’s efforts. However, the rider’s mother was said to be less pleased with her son and his mates.
Bike’s paper plates SOMERVILLE Highway Patrol members in an unmarked car surprised the rider of an unregistered motorbike with false paper plates on Karingal Drive, Frankston, Thursday 20 September. The 42-year-old man, of Frankston, was found to be unlicensed and later tested positive to both methamphetamine and cannabis.
FIVE residents of a house in Frankston were awoken by a smoke alarm as flames from an outdoor fire pit spread to the rear bedrooms, 5.30am, Sunday 23 September. Frankston CFA crews put out the fire which started on the rear deck of the house in McMahons Road. Those at home included the mother, 46, and children aged 12-16.
Man under guard A MAN was under guard at Frankston Hospital last week after being bitten by a police dog, 1.50pm, Thursday 20 September. The 27-year-old, of no fixed address, was arrested when police cordoned off an area near the corner of Jacana and Leonard streets, Frankston, in a two-and-a-half hour hunt for an alleged house breaker. He had not been charged last week.
Fumes blamed for man’s death POISONOUS fumes from an LPG heater are being blamed for the deaths of a man and his pets asleep in a campervan at Rye last week. The man, 57, was living in the van behind a friend’s house in Sydney Street with his kelpie dog and pet bird. The friend told police he had spoken to the man about the need for proper ventilation if he was using the heater in the days leading up to his death. However, all were found dead when he checked on them, 10.30am, Monday 24 September. Leading Senior Constable Brendan Richardson, of
Dromana police, said inadequate ventilation appeared to be a factor in the tragedy and the man’s death was not being treated as suspicious. “The witness was unable to raise them and called police,” he said. “Rye CFA attended to disperse the fumes and make the scene safe for the police and ambulance and the man’s body was taken to the coroner’s office.” Police say gas heaters should be checked regularly and oxygen depletion sensors used to warn of dangers from fumes.

Your Hearing Questions Answered Is it important for patients to see an audiologist if they think they may be having difficulties hearing? Yes, if you are starting to notice difficulties it’s important to have a full hearing test. We don’t just test which sounds you can hear, we also check how clearly you can understand speech, in quiet and in background noise. Some common indications that you may have a hearing loss are: Turning the TV up Frequently asking for repeats Not being able to hear properly on the telephone Difficulty in noisy situations such as restaurants Missing out on important parts of the conversation Often your partner or a close family member may be the first person to notice that you are having difficulty hearing. Is it true that a lot of patients don’t actually need hearing aids? Yes. Probably 25 percent of those that we see do choose to get hearing aids. Some people have a little bit of hearing loss that we just need to talk about, and continue to monitor. Are there steps people who aren’t ready for hearing aids can do to help combat hearing loss? Yes. Pick a seat in a restaurant where
you can see the faces of the people that you are taking to. This can make it easier to follow what they are saying. With the television, if you’re not ready for hearing aids, we can get a set of cordless headphones. These can be one of the best options for hearing the TV clearly. Are there ever very simple solutions to hearing loss? Yes. Sometimes a hearing loss can be caused by ear wax blocking the canal. If someone needs a hearing aid, should they always choose the most expensive, top-of-the-line model? Most people don’t need the most expensive hearing aids, fully loaded with all the bells and whistles. It really is patient specific. You don’t always need the absolute top-of theline hearing aid technology, if the features that you need are available in something less expensive. At Chelsea Hearing, we always offer you a range of options, and it is up to you to choose something that you are comfortable with. You should never feel pressured to proceed with hearing aids that you don’t feel ready for. Are smaller hearing aids more expensive? Generally, the style of the hearing aid does not have very much impact on the price. There are very good, small hearing aids available at all price points. Larger hearing aids are not necessarily less expensive either. The good news
is that the very small, comfortable hearing aids are suitable for most people these days. How much do hearing aids cost? Most people who are on a Centrelink pension (such as an age pension or a disability pension) are eligible for the Office of Hearing Services Voucher program. This enables them to choose from a range of hearing aids that are “free-to-client”. These hearing aids have improved significantly over the past few years, and a lot of people are pleasantly surprised at how natural they sound, and how small and comfortable they can be. Pensioners can also choose to contribute to more expensive hearing aids if they wish. For people who are not eligible for the voucher program, hearing aids typically start at $2,700 for a pair. What brand of hearing aids to you recommend? Chelsea Hearing is an independent clinic. We fit hearing aids from all of the major manufacturers. Our recommendations are made after we have tested your hearing, looked in your ears, and had a discussion about the things that you want to hear well. We also take the time to consider your preference for style and size of the hearing aids, as well as your budget. We will recommend the most appropriate hearing aids for you, and we will always give you a range of options to choose from.
What is your philosophy on health care? If I wouldn’t do it for my Mum or Dad, I don’t do it for a patient. When I’m making recommendations for a patient, I think “if this was my mum or dad, with this hearing loss, and these difficulties, would I be making the same recommendations?”. If the answer is “yes”, then I know I’m doing my best for a patient. What does the relationship you have with your patients mean to you? The patient comes first. The patient is your customer and you want to have the healthiest, happiest patient that you can. That makes me happy as well. To know that we are helping that patient to be happy is just rewarding. What is one thing about your job that really sticks out in a positive way? It’s really nice to be able to make a difference for people. Often the partner of the person with a hearing loss may have been repeating themselves and having to speak louder for years. When we help with a hearing loss (often with hearing aids) it’s often the family members who notice the benefit first. Suddenly they don’t have to repeat everything, and they don’t get so tired from speaking loudly all day. It can make a big difference for the whole family.
the right pace of the individual patient. Some people come in here, and they know they want to get hearing aids and they want to get it all happening as quickly as possible. Other people come in, and they are having some difficulties hearing, but they don’t know if they have a hearing loss. They may need a little bit more time to understand their hearing loss, and the options available. It doesn’t help anyone to push someone in to getting hearing aids before they are ready for them, or to pressure someone to purchase hearing aids that cost more than they are comfortable with. Sometimes the best thing to do is explain what’s causing the problem, and what solutions are available. It can also be helpful to bring your partner or a close family member to your appointment with you.
Do you have rules that you live by when treating patients? My number one rule is to take things at

Greenways: More than bricks and mortar GREENWAYS has been the village of choice on the Peninsula for over 40 years. It’s easy to think that village life just happens organically. It’s not that simple. Whether you’re a pioneer of the industry (like Greenways) or a new village down the road, whether you’re high end, affordable, rental, independent, care-focused or lifestyle, it takes an enormous amount of work and commitment to create and maintain a thriving, happy and harmonious village community. At Greenways, the village staff team go above and beyond. The team is led by Lesley Hemingway, the village’s much adored manager. Sandra Findlay looks after sales and new resident enquiries and Lee Monkhouse provides village office support. Roles aside, it is their can-do, friendly, caring, supportive and committed approach to village residents – above all else – that sets this team apart. They care for the residents like family. Their dedication to that ‘family’ and fulfilling their every need – from having a genuine interest in their daily lives, to assisting with activities and services, and ensuring the village is in tip-top shape – is inspiring. And the residents love them for it! Take Ron and Rosemary. Village residents who met at Greenways and planned to marry. Lesley and the team offered to organize the whole celebration at the village: from staffing, decorations, catering, music and village volunteers. The result was
Greenways’ first village wedding and a reception to remember! Ron recalls: “We were delighted to accept Lesley’s offer. The weekend was brilliant; a very memorable time for us as a couple and the village as a whole. Although the event is over, its effects continue to enhance the harmonious atmosphere which pervades our lovely home at Greenways. Thanks team”. It’s a feeling shared by other residents. And the 2017 Greenways Village Survey and 2018 Independent National Resident Survey results show just that. Residents praised the staff for being respectful, trustworthy, caring, helpful, professional, quality focused and, importantly, understanding of the resident’s perspective. As individuals, the staff are extremely caring and compassionate people, and bring that warmth to the Greenways community. They’ve cooked food for residents who are unwell. If transport is not available, they’ve volunteered to take residents to the doctors. And Lesley has regularly stepped in to run the village yoga and exercise classes (when the teacher has been unavailable) to ensure that residents do not miss out on their regular workout. To village residents, the team are not only support people but also trusted friends. One resident put it best. “Lesley and the girls are a very sensitive people and have a great deal of empathy toward fellow human
beings. They’ll always go out of her way to assist where they can and if they feel the residents are happy and contented at Greenways, that’s all they could hope for”. Fun is also an important ingredient at Greenways. The staff team enjoy organizing social events, activities and functions for residents. They love to see them happy and having a great time. It’s all hands on deck – whether it be putting together a Thai banquet, organizing a 1940/50s nostalgia evening, hosting Movie & Indian Nights, introducing Peter Stanley on Australia Day, or arranging Greenways Birthday celebration with magician Matt Hollywood – and it makes for great community spirit. So enamoured are residents with the team that they have planned a thank-you function in November this year. Everyone is looking forward to a fantastic event! When choosing a village, there are many factors to consider. Top class amenities, beautifully refurbished accommodation, security, wellmanicured grounds, handy location and affordability are all important (and are all on offer at Greenways). Yet a trusted, caring and involved staff team who truly understand and meet resident needs is also imperative. And rare. So come down to Greenways and meet the team. Talk to residents to see what all the fuss is about. It might be the village for you!

Experience the boutique retirement dream at Mountain View Leongatha
MOUNTAIN View Leongatha is a boutique lifestyle retirement village. It will only have 45 villas on completion and is very unique compared to the many larger villages that exist. It is for this reason that many have made the move into this exclusive community. A lifestyle village for the active retiree or semi-retired who embraces life. Currently, Mountain View Leongatha has 43 residents occupying 26 villas. Mountain View Leongatha offers resort living everyday with the Community Centre operational right from the start which in turn has brought new residents in sooner rather than later. Family and friends are often seen using the salt-chlorinated pool, bowling green, lounge/dining and games areas – it really is the hub of many activities. It is also a pet friendly village. Much thought was given to the interior design of the Villas which include 24 hour emergency call systems, contemporary kitchens, stylish living areas, spacious bathrooms and comfortable bedrooms and parking spaces or garages. The focus of building the villas was to enhance your lifestyle, security and freedom. Mountain View Leongatha helps people personalise their retirement, offering two financial options to suit
your budget. The money saved when buying in at a lower price because we are regional, allows residents the opportunity to invest their savings and fund their lifestyle. We can provide assistance to help you understand the legal, financial and service aspects when considering the benefits of a lifestyle change and answer any queries you may have regarding retirement living. Mountain View Leongatha is a lifestyle investment. We have had many residents move from the likes of Merimbula, Mount Martha, Bendigo, Lilydale & Pakenham. Many have chosen Leongatha as their new address because they know what South Gippsland has to offer – they may have holidayed here in the past or have just decided to get away from the hustle and bustle of the city yet not be too far to return to Melbourne for day trips. Many have decided on the seachange, tree-change and me-change. Leongatha township is a lovely country town with a range of facilities and great local hospital which recently had a $30m redevelopment. Many great day trips are available within the Gippsland area and Melbourne is very accessible if the city beckons. Travel seems to be high on the list of things to do. Only a 30 minute trip from Leongatha and you will be on the coast with Wilsons Promontory
National Park and Philip Island is not too far to also explore. So the choice is yours, either sea-change or treechange all in one. With only 9 Villas remaining we suggest that you consider us soon as the option to purchase will be reducing day by day due to this being a smaller boutique lifestyle village. Call now on 1300 306 255 to make an appointment or check out our website www. mountainviewleongatha.com.au and view the villas and village.

Live happy at St John’s Village – “The perfect place to live” “FOUR years ago, Harry and I made a life-changing decision to leave our comfortable family home in the midst of an acre of tranquil gardens and enter a Retirement Village. After much reflection, we decided on St. John’s Village in Somerville, which offered all the facilities we desired. Adjacent to good medical and shopping centres, and set on the beautiful Mornington Peninsula, with ready access to family members in suburban Melbourne, it was the perfect place to begin our new life. The transition to our well-designed new home at St. John’s has been beyond our dreams. It’s a wonderful feeling to continue our association with activities within the Mornington Peninsula Shire, and also be part of any of the groups St. John’s offers; art, computer, bible studies, knitting, drama, exercise, bowls and the list goes on! Friendship, care and warmth surround us here – and every day we give thanks.” Valda Cole OAM “My husband and I came to St John’s Retirement Village in Somerville in December 2004 after looking through a number of other villages. We are very happy here and have found that one of the great things about St John’s is the friendly atmosphere and the fact that there are lovely areas throughout the Village with beautiful trees and gardens. So many villages are so built up that there are very few open spaces. The shops are quite close and we have a Village bus which caters for
those of us no longer driving. We enjoy going on trips and outings and, of course, there are lots of groups and activities in which we can choose to be involved or not, but we are never bored!” Joan Rowney St. John’s Retirement Village has been improving the lifestyles of retirees on the Mornington Peninsula for over thirty-five years. From single bedroom units, right through to large two bedroom units with study and attached lock up garage, we will have the unit to suit you, or if you require a little extra assistance, we have single and double serviced apartments.

Workshops and walks in an unexpected location SOUTHERN Metropolitan Cemeteries Trust (SMCT), manages nine cemeteries, including Springvale Botanical Cemetery (SBC), and is a non-profit, community-based organisation that is committed to caring for every member of our community throughout all of life’s stages. Anyone who visits to take a tour or attend our free, informative workshops is surprised by how beautiful and special a place it is. The comments we hear most are usually centred around what an enjoyable and interesting time they’ve had, and that it is not at all what they expected to find in a cemetery. SMCT Community Engagement Officer, Sunita Varlamos said, “If you haven’t been to Springvale Botanical Cemetery lately, you really must join a tour or a workshop, and be ready for something different! Not only is there a vast botanical parkland to explore, but people are impressed by our on-site Café, Vita et flores and the multitude of interesting historical facts, sights and topics on offer.” During the Victorian Seniors Festival, a number of free workshops will be offered that are designed to help people think about their life, their stories and what matters to them. We know that the more prepared we are when it comes to planning our life matters, the higher our peace of mind and comfort. “We have developed workshops that can help attendees to think about, plan, contemplate and create various aspects of their life journey so that their choices are documented and understood,” said Sunita.

Everyone is welcome to attend one, or all, of the workshops which are centered around the MYLifebook booklet. MYLifebook is a tool that helps people to put their affairs in order in a thoughtful way, that is personal to them. “Why not combine a workshop with a walk around the gardens or stop for coffee at Café Vita?” said Sunita, “or if you’d rather take it easy, we offer community groups or individuals, free bus tours with over a century of fascinating insights into Springvale Botanical Cemetery.” Workshop details My Story: Our lives are a series of stories from which we create meaning and purpose, but sometimes it’s hard to get started with our own story. This workshop provides an opportunity to use our hearts and minds to consider the story of our lives and begin the experience of writing it in ways that are meaningful and personal. My Traditions: Rituals and ceremonies are important and have many benefits for individuals, family and community. In a fast-paced world it is difficult to know how to create and sustain rituals that can mark our significant life events. This workshop highlights the value of rituals and how to create your own. My Wishes: The more we can do to think about how we would like our lives celebrated, the more likely our family and friends can provide our final wishes. It’s important to think about this time, document it and get on with life. This workshop provides the knowledge and confidence to plan a funeral and final resting place for yourself or loved

Banjo arrives: Moonlit Sanctuary welcomes its latest arrival, Banjo the koala. Picture: Supplied
New face among the gum trees his mother’s pouch attached to her teat. As he grew bigger he would appear from time to time, occasionally poking out a leg, then an arm, or his head. Some days he pulled most of his body out to take a peek. Now, at seven months, Banjo is mostly hanging out on his mum’s back in the sanctuary’s latest exhibit – a 10,000 square foot koala centre with five habitats to encourage breeding.
TASTY eucalyptus leaves, lots of naps, cuddles from mum – welcome to the world of Banjo, the first koala joey born at Moonlit Sanctuary, Pearcedale. Banjo arrived after months of suspense for sanctuary staff. Now, energised by his mother’s nourishing pap, Banjo is ready to ride on her back and see the world through the leaves of the gum trees.

THE running of the inaugural Hastings Gift with $8000 for the winners of the 120-metre men’s and women’s events will be the highlight of a sporting extravaganza to be held at the Thomas Barclay oval, Hastings, on Saturday 17 November. The main events are sponsored by AGL and other races in the 14-event program include the John Coleman Mile (1600m) Hastings open handicap at $1500 and several races offering $1000 in prize money: the Tucketts Tyrepower 120m Hastings masters handicap; Hastings 120m backmarkers invitational/mixed handicap; Hastings 300m open handicap; Malvolio 300m Hastings masters/women’s handicap; Hastings 800m open handicap, and Hastings 4 x 200m stable mixed relay. The Fast’n’Fearless 70m Hastings novice sprint and the Pride Performance 70m Hastings elimination invitational/mixed handicap will offer $600 prizes, and the WCCI 120m Under 18 men’s and women’s handicaps will offer $300 prizes. The Victorian Athletics League’s 120m Hastings under-14 handicap will offer a sash as prize, while trophies will be awarded to the winners of the Secondary school mixed 4 x 200m relay, and Hastings 4 x 200m Australian Defence Force men’s and women’s relays. The launch of the professional running event has come about after a group of residents received the backing of Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and the Victorian Athletic League.
Hastings Gift president Terry Kelly said the aim of the day was to attract visitors to the Western Port area and to broaden an awareness of professional running, a “part of Australia’s history”. He said the organisers were able to offer prizemoney high enough to attract top athletes. “As a premier athletic event it will give the public the opportunity to see some of the best athletes in Australia competing for the honour of being the inaugural Hastings Gift winner,” Mr Kelly said. “The event came into being as a number of committee members have family and friends that compete on the Victorian Athletic League circuit and live on the Mornington Peninsula. “They compete with local sprinting team Pride Performance. The members have won all the biggest and most prestigious gifts both in Victoria and interstate. Some of their major wins include the Rye Gift, Maryborough Gift, Ballarat Gift, Queanbeyan Gift (NSW) and the iconic Stawell Gift.” Mr Kelly said the event was expected to attract about 500 athletes, including from interstate. “Local support on the day would give this exciting new event a chance to grow as it becomes an annual event on the local and state calendar and offer much needed fundraising opportunities for the community,” Mr Kelly said. “A number of sponsorship opportunities are available, including sponsoring one of the 14 major races on the day.” To inquire about sponsorship call Mr Kelly 0484 954283 or email president@hastingsgift. org
Parties park their bids for votes Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE bid for votes at the 24 November state election is proving fruitful for train commuters with the Labor government offering 50 more spaces at Frankston station than the Liberal opposition. In mid-September the opposition pledged to build a $30 million 450-space multi-deck car park and last week this was topped by Labor coming with a 500-space car park plan. Labor’s promise will depend on the state government regaining office and the federal Labor toppling the government now led by Prime Minister Scott Morrison. While neither the government or opposition has indicated where they plan to build the car park, it is not expected to be on Public Transport Victoria land which Already provides 416 parking spaces at the station. Land owned by Frankston Council is likely to be needed for the multi-deck car park. On weekdays the existing car park is full before 6.30am and train commuters are forced to park up to 500 metres away and pay as much as $13 a day. Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan last Thursday said Frankston’s new car park will be part of the government’s $150 million Car Parks for Commuters Fund. She said the Labor government had “delivered a brand-new station with new public areas, upgraded pedestrian connections and a redeveloped Young Street”. “As part of this investment, the Labor Government also carried out research to address parking issues at the station,” Ms Allan said. “Now that this massive construction blitz is almost complete, a re-elected Labor government will get on with delivering 500 new car

spaces.” Ms Allen said the government was also “undertaking the business case and planning work necessary for a future extension of the Frankston line”. “The Labor government is investing $2 billion in the Frankston line to improve reliability and run more trains, more often. The investment is creating over 2000 jobs removing 13 level crossings, upgrading signalling and power and building 10 new stations.” More accessible and user-friendly car parking in Frankston CBD is one of the Committee for Greater Frankston’s main advocacy priorities. The president of the regional advocacy group, Fred Harrison, said a multi-deck car park - at the station – now being proposed by both sides of state politics - had been sought for many years. “Insufficient free and accessible parking has become a barrier to economic growth so [the] announcement by the state government is a good start, but it’s just a beginning as a solution to this major problem requires a much wider strategy,” he said. “Traders, business owners, workers, commuters, shoppers and visitors are telling us Frankston’s economy can’t continue to grow unless the lack of car parking is solved.” The committee has asked both the Labor state government and the Liberal opposition to extend the Frankston train line to Langwarrin and Baxter with large car parks at both locations. Mr Harrison said extending the train line required both federal and state government money. “The Liberal Party at federal and state levels, and federal Labor have all committed to the project, but the Victorian Labor government has yet to do so.”

Weekly picture show to come to Frankston Compiled by Brodie Cowburn A PROPOSAL is on foot to in augurate a weekly picture show at Frankston. The details are being worked out by the Frankston Progress Association and Major Conder, O.C. Langwarrin camp, and the proceeds are to be equally divided between the camp and the progress association. *** MRS Reynolds has been appointed agent, for the Royal Insurance Co. for Frankston district. *** OWING to the Rev E Tonkin taking the church anniversary services at Cheltenham on. Sunday next, the Rev C. Bridgborne will conduct both services in the Frankston Methodist Church. He will also preach at Somerville in the afternoon. *** MR A L. McFarlane was the successful candidate in an examination recently held for the position of a junior clerk in the local branch of the State Savings bank, and commenced his duties on the 1st inst. Mr McFarlane is to be congratulated upon his success. Mr Reg. Coxall, his predecessor, who has enlisted for active service, goes into camp on 13th inst, but still retains his position as an officer of the bank. *** THE last of a series of euchre parties and dances under the auspices of the Frankston Wattle Club was held last week. Mrs Lee gained the lady’s prize for
winning the greatest number of games during the tournament, with Mrs Thompson runner up. The gents prize was annexed by Mr T. Thompson, with Mr G. Darcey as runner up. Another series will commence next Thursday evening. *** ON Monday morning a fire occurred in a house on the Cranbourne road, owned by Mr Scarborough, senr, and occupied by Mr Goodwin and family. The cause of the fire was the over heating of an incubator, and the occupant had a narrow escape. Some of the furniture was saved, but the building was completely demolished. Neither the house or furniture were insured. *** WORD has been received from the defence authorities by Mr Alf. Jones that his son, Pte. W. J. Jones had been wounded in France, and admitted to hospital. Later a private cable was received from Pte. Jones, stating that he is doing well. *** BUY War Loan bonds, and the world buys with you; hold back and you hold back alone. A War Loan Bond is as mighty as the sword. Tis better to have bought the smallest War Loan Bond than never to have bought at all. *** Repatriation Concert at Frankston. THE first of a series of concerts held throughout this shire was held at Frankston on Monday evening. There was a good attendance, the
chair being occupied by Cr Mason, who applogised tor the unavoidable absence of the president of the shire, Cr C Murray. The platform was occupied by Lieutenant Bolton Warrant Officer David and Cr Oates A capital programme of songs was gone through, and the Langwarrin Band rendered good service in opening and closing the meeting with the National Anthem. In his opening remarks the chairman explained that it had been published that Captain Bruce and Lieut Colonel Bolton would be present, but as they were engaged that evening in other parts of the electorate it was found impossible for them to be here, but the former gentleman fully intended to attend a meeting later on. Song and encore - Drum Major Scarfe. Lieutenant Bolton was sure that they felt joyful that evening in looking at the general aspect of the war but we must not forget that we must keep on going till we push the Hun to Berlin. We have been up against it for four years, but now we have turned and it remains to be seen if Germany can withstand the Allies, as they have done. He doubted it. We still want men, not so much boys of 18 to 21 but mature men plenty of whom may yet be seen frequently on race courses and football grounds. He had heard it said reinforcements are not necessary, but the men that ought to know, are those that are here. If reinforcements had been kept
up many of those who took part in the first engagements would be alive today. On the 17th of next month the Government has decided to give voluntary recruiting the last chance. They have instituted the voluntary ballot system. Without your support it will be a failure, but with it a success In Frankston sub-division there are 1043 eligible men, and the annual quota is 7 men a month and it ought not be difficult to get that number. He said the system was giving each one a sporting chance and appealed to those present to take that chance for the sake of those brave lads who are there. It was a unique opportunity for every one first to find his own soul and then prove himself a man. (applause). Sergeant Widburn—Song and several encores. A collection was then taken up in the hall to defray expenses which resulted in £2 15s. Sergeant Lane—Song and encore. Warrant Officer David then gave stirring address on the object of the meeting - to gain recruits, and also on the splendid work achieved by the Red Cross women in the years that have passed. It was not possible to convey the real appreciation of the Australian lads for the good things sent them. Those that had been prisoners of war and been released had stated that had it not been for the goods sent by the Red Cross workers they would have died. He vividly pictured a hospital ward there he had been in 1915, when the
Xmas Billies had been distributed to the sick and wounded and likened it to of the delight of children reviewing it their gifts on a Xmas morning. He appealed to those who perhaps were not eligible themselves yet know some that were to try and persuade them to go and do his bit. The Union Jack stands for the symbol of the nation. To those who were unable to go he urged to support the war loan. By doing so they would be doing their bit to help the boys at the front. The Tank would be along on the 8th when all would have an opportunity of contributing. He concluded by passing an enconium on the boys at the front for their unfailing good humor and utter fearlessness. Mr L. Payne—Song and encore. The chairman said he felt that no one present would regret attending the meeting and if there were any elegible men present they would be constrained to go and do their bit. Cr Oates in proposing a vote of thanks to the speakers and singers spoke on the necessity of raising our proportion of the required quota and urged those that intended to do so to state that it was to be credited to the Shire of Frankston and Hastings so as to entitle us to the credit of it. The vote was carried by acclamation. Lieutenant Bolton moved a vote of thanks to the chairman and the proceedings terminated with the National Anthem by the band. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 5 October 1918

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
Confessions of a Sporting Dud By Stuart McCullough IT’S a magical time of year. By which I mean the words ‘abracadabra’ can be uttered and the cruel winter weather instantly disappears, to be replaced by a glorious spring. The sun rises earlier and sets a little later. The scent of cut grass assaults the senses and the eternal fashion statement that is ‘shorts and long socks’ is uttered with confidence. It’s a great time of year. Then, of course, there are the football finals. At times like these, it’s hard not to reflect on my own athletic career. Having reflected, I can’t say I like what I see. In fact, I’d go so far as to say that I’m horrified by my own reflection. Truth is, I wasn’t much of a footballer. Or netballer, cricketer or darts-thrower either. I was hopeless at badminton, swimming and cross-country running. Soccer, judo, horseback riding, curling, archery and BMX riding too – I was terrible at all of them. There’s an expectation that, one day, we’ll all find our perfect sport. It’s a bit like love, really, in that it’s something we believe will happen to all of us at some point. But for some of us, we never find our ideal sport. Goodness knows I tried. My time at the Tyabb Junior Football Club is probably best forgotten. Don’t get me wrong, they were great people. Sporting clubs are amazing, in that they’re built on good will of volunteers. But if the true test of any experience is whether you left something in a better state than you found it, I can’t say that my time as a member of the Tyabb footy club can be described this way. The harsh truth is that, despite my best efforts, I

simply wasn’t very good at football. I arrived at the club completely unprepared. I had played kick to kick in the backyard, usually in my gumboots. Unlike the ball, which absorbed water until it was so dense
Chelsea Mordialloc Mentone News
3 October 2018
with moisture that attempting to mark it was like trying to catch an airborne cow, I absorbed very little about the game. For starters, I had no idea at all what any of the positions were. You don’t need positions in kick to kick.
You just have to stand there and wait for a waterlogged missile to knock you over. The coach told me I was going to be playing in the back pocket. I was wearing shorts that, so far as I knew, did not have any pockets at all, much less a back pocket. As the team surged out of the change rooms and roared onto the field, I remember that everyone else seemed to know what they were doing. Clearly, they understood what the positions were. Even though it wasn’t something taught at school, they had managed to pick up this vital information somewhere along the line whereas I had remained totally oblivious. As everyone else trotted off to their designated position, I took flight towards the car park. Although I was off to seek advice, it must have appeared to the coach that I was doing a runner. Or, given the inclement weather, that I had decided that the best position for me was the back seat of the family Kombi, preferably with the heater on. Which, in fairness, it probably was. That’s the thing I remember the most about my junior football career – the weather. It was always incredibly cold and wet and muddy. More often than not, our opponent wasn’t the other team but the elements themselves, as we did all we could to endure four quarters of discomfort. Some days were so cold that you couldn’t feel your hands at all. On those mornings, they’d bring out bowls of warm water between quarters to help you get some feeling back into your fingers. It was only a temporary relief.
It was only seconds before the first quarter was due to start. As everyone else took their spot on the field, I ran to my father to enquire where the ‘back pocket’ was. He pointed somewhere off into the distance when a map, compass and a backpack with supplies would have been far more helpful. Nevertheless, I took his advice and ran to the farthest point of the oval and waited, assuming that someone would tell me if I got it wrong. As it turned out, it was the first of many, many trips to the back pocket. I appreciate that there’s no ‘I’ in ‘team’ and that every position plays a crucial role. However, junior football is extremely hierarchical and there are a number of highly coveted glamour positions: namely ruck, rover and – the most glamorous of all – ruck rover. On the other hand, ‘back pocket’ was generally considered to be one notch above cutting up the oranges. Ironically, I think I would have done a great job with the oranges. Rather than the expected plate of dissected navels, I’d have thrown in some watermelon and pomegranate for variety. Perhaps a sprig of mint too, to make the presentation extra special. I watched the football this September. Naturally, I did so from the safety of my living room and not a Kombi and the only back pocket I encountered was the one I was sitting on. As I sat with my plate of cut up oranges, watermelon and pomegranate with my sprig of mint, I thought back to my own time as an elite footballer and smiled. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Division Two: A season in review DIVISION TWO
Tigers roared: Dromana will be moving up to Division one after taking out the 2018 Division Two premiership. Picture: Andrew Hurst
By Brodie Cowburn Dromana THIS season’s dominant side were worthy and deserving premiers. Led by playing coach Rikki Johnston, the Tigers were the best side throughout the entirety of the home and away season, and only suffered one loss before the start of their finals campaign. They struggled at times when playing Red Hill throughout the season, but got things right against the Hillmen when it counted in the Grand Final. Even without gun forward Ethan Johnstone for a large period in the Grand Final, Dromana still found the scoreboard and had enough in them to secure the win, That grit and determination should be enough to see them be competitive in Division One for next season. 38 year old Ben Holmes was also a revelation for the Tigers this season up forward, sharing the load with Johnstone and booting 49 majors. Red Hill DESPITE falling short in the Grand Final, Red Hill can hold their heads high after a phenomenal season. The Hillmen went on a mid-season rampage, going on a long undefeated run while putting plenty of games through younger players. Some of their standouts for the season included Chris Irving and finals specialist Dylan Hoare. The Mold brothers also played a starring role in the Hillmen’s brilliant year. Jonah Siverson led the line in defence, and established himself as possibly the best man on man defender in the division. Coach Jamie Mollo was rightfully awarded the coach of the year award at the end of year awards night. Under his guidance, the Hillmen will be right in among the contenders in season 2019. Karingal A YEAR of such promise for the Bulls ended up ending in the most disappointing fashion possible, with two poor back to back losses in finals. Despite the tough conclusion, there were plenty of positives to be found in the Bulls 2018 year. Andrew Mathers nearly claimed the league best and fairest, and finished just one vote behind the eventual winner. Another bright light was the inclusion of Robert Mcewin late in the year, as he kicked four goals in their last finals loss. Despite their tough losses in finals in the Seniors’, the Bulls’ Reserves and under-19s sides claimed premierships in 2018. Next season will be a year of change for the Bulls, as they welcome back Brendan Dunne to the club as new head
coach, taking over from Brett Dunne. Chelsea CHELSEA would have felt good about a relatively successful year in 2018, in which they consistently hung around the top end of the ladder without really pushing into the top two if it weren’t for their final game. After hanging around the double chance spots for most of the season, the Seagulls were made to play in an elimination final against Langwarrin, and fell short at the first hurdle. The Kangaroos got the early jump on them, and a year of hard work went down the drain. Despite their disappointing finish, Chelsea have plenty to smile about. Curtis Bywater booted 65 goals this season for the goals and finished 6th in the league best and fairest. Langwarrin LANGWARRIN were a long shot to make finals with just a couple of games remaining in the home and away season. After a tough run in the middle of year and bad luck with injury, the Kangaroos bounced back to snatch a handful of wins in the closing rounds. They snuck into finals over Hastings and ruffled plenty of feathers from there. Making it to the preliminary final was a
stunning result for Kangaroos, and will give them plenty of confidence going into next year. Coaches Josh Beard and Blake McCormack will both go around for season 2019, providing stability to what should be a promising campaign next season for Langwarrin. Superstar goalscorer Jesse Murphy has also signed on for next season, a massive boost for the Kangaroos given his outstanding year.
dale in which they languished near the bottom four for the entirety of the season. The shining light for the year was bringing in former North Melbourne forward Drew Petrie for a cameo appearance, drawing a big crowd to their home game. The club’s womens side provided the biggest highlight of the year, when they took out the Division Three premiership over Hastings.
Devon Meadows MICHAEL Theodoridis’ impressive 60 goal haul was the biggest positive from a shaky season by the Panthers. Devon Meadows were inconsistent and patchy all season long. They will seek a fresh start for next season under new coach Neil Craig, an experienced name in the MPNFL with Mt Eliza and Mornington.
Hastings THE Blues endured a horror year off the field in 2018, and will look forward to a fresh start next season. Early salary cap dramas overshadowed their off season, and the club was rocked by the passing of president Ken Stratton in the middle of the season. The club enjoyed some success on the field, but ultimately fell just short of finals. Things look to have got off to a great start for season 2019 though, with the signing of former Coleman Medallist Brendan Fevola to the club. His goalkicking prowess will be a massive advantage, and his star power should see Thomas Barclay oval packed to capacity each week.
Somerville A DECENT start to the year saw Somerville claim four wins from eight games, before they only won one of their next seven. Their decent percentage and competitive spirit kept them from finishing as low as 11th, and they will be looking for a much better result from next season. They will be without coach Andrejs Everitt next season, as he jumped ship to Yarraville-Seddon in the Western Region Football League.
Tyabb AN eleventh place finish does not reflect the quality that the Yabbies began to show towards the end of the year. A much improved Tyabb side will look to claim some scalps next season. Their best performer was Ethan Rahilly, who finished equal sixth in the league best and fairest.
Pearcedale A DISAPPOINTING year for Pearce-
Rye RYE ended up stuck near the bottom of the ladder, but had plenty of positives. Adam Kirkwood took out a deserved league best and fairest award, and will be returning for season 2019 with the added responsibility of coaching.
Crib Point A TOUGH year for Crib Point ended with just one win and a last placed finish, a mile away from their next best competitor. Their win over Devon Meadows was the highlight of a year full of struggles and thrashings. A 185 point loss to Dromana was rock bottom. The Magpies have a lot of work ahead of them.
Dan’s the man for Frankston Dolphins Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Dolphins Football Club have announced that former senior assistant Danny Ryan will take on the role of Senior Coach for the 2019 and 2020 seasons. Ryan will take over the position from Adam Skrobolak, who recently departed the club to join the coaching ranks at St Kilda full time. Ryan has an impressive resume of

Our aim is to create a sustainable elite football environment where players can challenge & develop themselves at VFL level and as a group work to become a great football club both on and off field,” Ryan said. “Personally, the opportunity to coach in my own right and lead the
on-field direction of such a proud club is an honour and I appreciate the opportunity granted to me. Now to roll up the sleeves and get started on the hard work in front of us.” Frankston Dolphins general manager Gary Buckenara said “I am looking forward to working with Danny in the next phase of the Frankston Football Clubs journey in 2019 and 2020. Danny will bring a tremendous football coaching & development background to the club and the team
as we continue to build this club into the future. There is plenty of hard work ahead of everyone involved at the club as we piece together the rest of the team on and off-field. Obviously, Danny’s appointment as our senior coach is really the important appointment for us and now we can start to place the rest of the pieces in place to complete our requirements.” Dolphins pre-season training will commence on Monday 12 November.

D-day next week for Pines SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie FRANKSTON Pines’ future hangs in the balance after last week’s AGM left the club without a president. “Boz” Osmancevic, interim president since August, was the only candidate for the position and after accepting the nomination he outlined how he wanted to run the club which sparked argument and the ensuing turmoil left Pines in limbo. As reported last week the only member of the “old guard” that Osmancevic wanted on his committee was Tommy Mitchell. However, long-serving administrator Steve Spencer was the only nomination for vice-president and his acceptance presented Osmancevic with a problem. It was resolved in farcical circumstances. Osmancevic made it clear that he would step down if he didn’t get his way. Former president Gary Hodgson and his wife Pip told the meeting that in their view Osmancevic represented the only future for Pines and the Hodgsons were adamant that they would not stand for office. “We can’t survive with just three people running the club,” Hodgson said, arguing that Pines needed to grow not merely lurch from one season to the next with its future under constant threat. Yet division remained with some members arguing that they had a right to nominate and if elected participate in the decision-making process. Osmancevic did not dispute this view but made it clear that he would not work with them. Spencer resigned and left the meeting but when he returned a few minutes later he announced that he’d changed his mind and would serve as vice-president. That triggered Osmancevic’s resignation and a walkout from his supporters. The meeting ended with Spencer as vice-president and Mitchell and Lee Davies on the general committee. Pines were left without a president, secretary or treasurer. An extraordinary AGM will now be held at the club’s Monterey Reserve headquarters at 7pm on Thursday 11 October. Spencer dropped a bombshell after the meeting by announcing that he believes former vice-president Daniel

Plaiche would make a suitable candidate as president. Plaiche was last on the club’s executive in 2016 during a failed attempt to embrace the Mauritian community. Spencer and Plaiche were due to discuss the matter as we went to print. “The last time Daniel was on the committee there was a clash with Gary and Pip over the way decisions were made but that won’t be the case now,” Spencer said. “But if Daniel says he can’t do it then I’ll ring ‘Boz’ and say ‘the keys are here. Come and get them.’ “I’m a realist and I know I can’t do this on my own.” Spencer anticipates Osmancevic appearing at the extraordinary AGM and running for president again. At last week’s AGM former club president and life member Alan Hodkinson chaired part of the meeting as elections for a new committee were held. Hodkinson explained to Osmancevic that the option of signing up enough members to give himself the numbers to implement his plan remained on the table. Osmancevic’s supporters include local businessman Arthur Proios who is keen to be part of the new committee. Proios is a director of Frankston-
based Discover Residential, part of the Eview Group, and it is thought that the real estate company would become a major sponsor if Osmancevic is at the helm. Despite the turmoil both factions have been busy contacting their preferred candidates for the senior coaching role. Last Friday Spencer sounded out Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor about the Pines’ senior post currently held by Paul Williams. Taylor and Williams have a longstanding friendship and have worked together before. On Saturday Spencer spoke to Williams and it is understood that he is prepared to work as an assistant to Taylor should the latter be appointed. The irony of this situation won’t be lost on Skye United as both Taylor and Williams are believed to have applied for the senior coaching job there. Osmancevic met with former Pines player Peter Blasby a fortnight back and is believed to have offered him the senior coaching position. Blasby is holidaying in the UK but is understood to be keen to have another former Pines player as his assistant. That player is Mornington midfielder Craig Smart while defenders Danny Black and Andy McIntyre are among a
group of potential signing targets. However Blasby’s skills as a goalkeeping coach are well known and it is believed that two other local clubs are keen to secure his services. In NPL2 news Langwarrin still is conducting interviews for an under20s coach. The club is keen to foster continuity in player development and sent out pre-trial offers to a large group of last season’s players from under-12 to under-18 levels with 48 offers taken up. Trials started this week for under-12, under-13, under-14, under-15 and under-16 squads. In NPLW news Southern United announced a series of coaching appointments last week. Senior player Olivia Groves will coach the under-12s in 2019 after coaching the under-16s this year. Groves has been a junior coach at Nunawading City and assists Timothy Dakis with Football Technique Australia at Carwatha College in Noble Park. The 19-year-old expects to complete her AFC C licence course by the end of the year. “I couldn’t resist an opportunity to remain involved with Southern United’s juniors and continue to teach at a club I love,” Groves said.
Southern also announced that Ernie Cerda has been appointed head coach of the under-14 squad. Cerda’s football connection can be traced back to his native Chile. He arrived in Australia in the 1980s and his playing CV includes stints at Richmond and Bulleen. Cerda has been involved with the women’s game for the past 12 years having spent seven years at Peninsula Strikers before working as senior development coach at Skye United. Debbie Nichols and Emma Bracken will coach Southern’s under-16s for the 2019 season. They are foundation coaches with the local women’s consortium club having taken charge of the under-13 squad for the competition’s inaugural 2016 season. That squad is the most successful in Southern’s short history twice winning championships and reaching two Grand Finals in the past two seasons winning in 2017. Nichols is a former Matilda and an FFV Hall of Fame inductee who has won two Women’s Premier League Coach of the Year awards and has been head coach at Casey Comets and Sandringham. Bracken played with Langwarrin, Moorabbin, Waverley, South Melbourne and Casey Comets. She has coached the women’s reserves at Comets and has worked as a coach with FFV. Nichols and Bracken are part of a long-term strategy to develop their squad into senior players and results to date have been spectacular. Last week’s coaching announcements resulted from a review undertaken by technical director Harry Chalkitis, former head coach of Victoria’s NTC women’s program. Chalkitis was recommended to Southern by FFV and the club hopes to finalise its under-19s and senior squad coaching appointments this week. In State 3 South-East news Skye United will conduct interviews this week for candidates on its shortlist for senior coach and expects to make an announcement next week. In State 4 South news George Hughes is a firm favourite to be appointed senior coach of Baxter. The former Peninsula Strikers and Brandon Park head coach is set to have talks this week with Baxter president Justin Brown and director of coaching Billy McLeod.

Rosebud golfers find their rhythm ROSEBUD Country Club members James Marchesani and Andrew Schonewille have continued to produce top results on the PGA Tour China. Marchesani and Schonewille competed at the Suzhou Open which was played at the Suzhou Jinji Lake International Golf Club on Sunday 2 September. Marchesani finished T-18 on eight under, while Schonewille, who had his best result of the season, finished T-23 on seven under. Following the Suzhou Open, Marchesani then finished T-4 in the PGA Tour China’s Qinhuangdao Championship held at the Qinhuangdao Golf Club on Tuesday 11 September. After entering the weekend at one under and shooting rounds of 71 and 72, Marchesani finished off strongly with rounds of 68 and 69 to finish eight under par. New Zealand’s Nick Voke won the tournament with an overall score of 12 under par. Rosebud Country Club’s general manager Danny McGrath said, “It’s fantastic seeing James and Andrew producing strong performances on a tour with so much on the line, a start on the Web.com tour in the US”. Schonewille will now enter the Macau Championships which is being played at Caesars Golf Macau on Thursday 27 September, while Marchesani has gained a start at the Taiwan Masters on the Asian Tour with a prize purse of US$850,000
(AUD$1.2 million). Marchesani’s Order of Merit finish on the European Tour last season has also allowed him to gain a start at the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship which begins on Thursday 4 October. The prestigious event worth $5 million Euros (AUD$8 million) is being played at the Old Course at St Andrews, the Championship Course at Carnoustie and Kingsbarns Golf Links in Scotland. Marchesani will then travel to Hong Kong to defend his Clearwater Bay Open title on Thursday 11 October. The season-ending Clearwater Bay Open, held at The Clearwater Bay Golf and Country Club, will offer the biggest-ever purse at a PGA Tour China event of US$292,000 (AUD$400,000). Tournament Organising Committee chairman, David Hui, said the club is looking forward to hosting The Clearwater Bay Open for the third time. “We also welcome back James Marchesani to defend his title after his great win last year,” he said. “We’ll put on a spectacular event to provide the perfect ending to the Tour as it grows from strength to strength.” The top-five on the Order of Merit will automatically earn status on next year’s Web.com Tour, while the top-10 will be eligible for the Final Stage of the Web.com Tour Qualifying Tournament from 6-9 December and players from 11-25 will be exempt to the Second Qualifying Stage.
Sharks Girls’ claim the championship SOUTHERN PENINSULA Sharks’ under-16 Girls have topped off their thrilling season as champions of the MUVJBL under-16 Girls Victorian Championship on Friday 21 September. The under-16s side defeated the Dandenong Rangers 64-56 in the grand final which was played at the State Basketball Centre. It has been an incredibly successful season for the group of girls who also won the Basketball Victoria Country Championship earlier in the year at Shepparton. To add to the side’s success, four of the girls, Charlie Dobson, Lani Thornton, Paige Price and Gemma Simon, were members of the Basketball Victoria Country State team which won silver at the Australian Junior Champi-
onships in July. The same four players were also part of the Southern Peninsula Sharks’ Senior Women’s side which finished runners-up in the Big V State Championship Women’s division. Southern Peninsula Sharks basketball operations manager Lucas Allen said it was a “crazy year of success for these girls”. “This would be one of the most successful under-16 Girls’ seasons that we’ve had at Southern Peninsula Sharks,” Allen said. “They had a few weeks there where they had a few girls at Nationals which can happen when you have players competing at a high level like that, but then having some of those girls involved at the senior level it definitely
helps with their progression which made a big difference in the end.” Southern Peninsula Sharks also had further success with their under-14 Girls side which finished runners-up in the MUVJBL under-14 Girls Victorian Championship Reserve division. In other basketball news for the Southern Peninsula Sharks, the Big V held their awards night on Saturday 22 September, where Olivia Pollerd took out the State Championship Women’s Youth Player of The Year Award. Jaz Shelley was also named in the State Championship Women’s All Star Five and so too Colin Voss, who was named in the Division Two Men’s All Star Five.

‘Near perfect’ season for girls MORNINGTON Peninsula Hockey Club’s under-16 Girls’ Green pennant team completed a near perfect season as they took out a nail-biting grand final victory over Doncaster on Friday 7 September. It wasn’t until the final five minutes that Mornington were able to break through Doncaster’s defence to score the decisive goal that secured them the victory at the Dandenong Hockey Centre. The grand final game was even throughout, but Mornington managed to hold off Doncaster until the final whistle and claimed the victory 1-0. Mornington Peninsula Hockey Club secretary Cheryle Bishop said, “It was an amazing display of courage, determination and self-belief”. Winning the grand final was also a fitting end for four of the players who were playing in their last junior game. The grand final winning team consisted of: Tahlia Bradford, Vanessa Carlyle, Erin Case, Miah Coillet, Lily Fielden, Lana Harris-Dent, Melody Johnson, Emma Lewis, Mia McWilliams, Maya Rich-Danks, Emma Sherrington, Kasey Smith, Jessica Stepanavicius, Amy Uren, Carolyn Van Der Bijl, and Aleisha Walters. Sam Thomson coached the side and Cam Bradford was the team manager. Summer Hockey is also set to commence on Wednesday 10 October at the Peninsula Hockey Centre.

Martin adds Stakes victory to list MORNINGTON-based apprentice jockey, Jack Martin, has landed the biggest win of his career when claiming the Listed $100,000 Tokyo City Cup (1800m) at Morphettville on Saturday 22 September. The gun apprentice continued his outstanding partnership with the Gelagotis-trained Moss ‘n’ Dale to score a convincing 1.9-length victory and bring up his fifth victory from seven rides aboard the son of Castledale. Martin, 23, said it was a massive thrill to win his first stakes race. “It’s what every jockey aims to achieve and to do that so early in my career I’m pretty proud and privileged to do so,” he said. “To do it on Moss ‘n’ Dale, who has been really good for me in my career when I’ve had several stoppages and injuries along the way, just made it even better.” Martin has had a stop-start year since suffering a fall at Hamilton last November. Martin spent three months on the sidelines following the incident and was again forced out of the saddle in June for a further two months to remove a plate in his shoulder.

The young jock returned to the races in August and has been quick to find his feet again by scoring back-to-back victories aboard Moss ‘n’ Dale. The pair combined to win the $120,000 Craig Opie Cup (1600m) at Moonee Valley on Saturday 8 September and will now be aiming towards next month’s Group Three $500,000 Craven Plate (2000m) at Randwick, one of the feature races on The Everest undercard. “It’ll be his first time over 2000m, but the way he ran through the line last start makes me think that it shouldn’t be an issue,” Martin said. Martin said the spring is a highly competitive period for jockeys looking for rides but the booking of Moss ‘n’ Dale would currently be his biggest ride for the upcoming spring. “It’s a hard time of the year with every jockey aiming to ride in the spring, but if [Moss ‘n’ Dale] can run well in Sydney, who knows where he might take me,” he said. “Rides are limited as an apprentice [in the spring], but you never know what might come up and I might be able to pick up a ride. Pat [Carey], my boss, might have something come up so if something does arise I’ll be grabbing it with both hands. “I’ve just got to keep doing well and hopefully everything will fall into place.” Ben Triandafillou
