Public spaces provide canvas for mural festival
CITY of Kingston will join with five other councils to deter unsightly illegal graffiti by commissioning a series of vibrant street art murals on public spaces.
The Urban Canvas Mural Festival will see 30 artists each create a largescale mural on some of Melbourne’s most graffiti prone areas over 14 days.
The participating councils, Bayside, Boroondara, Glen Eira, Kingston, Port Phillip and Stonnington, make up the Inner South Metro Mayors Forum (ISMMF).
The Mural Festival, launching on
17 April at a dedicated Festival Hub at 254 Carlisle Street, Balaclava, includes an art exhibition, art workshops, a youth mentoring program and an art apprenticeship program for 10 emerging street artists who are helping deliver some of the murals.
Each mural will represent the theme of Belong/Nugal (a Woi Wurrung translation – pronounced ‘Naar–Gaw’). Community members are invited to gain a better understanding of street art culture by watching the artists at work in each local government area.
The Urban Canvas Mural Festival is a $600,000 project funded by the Victorian Government’s Community Support Fund, which aims to prevent graffiti vandalism through the installation of unique street art. The idea is that taggers are less likely to deface public spaces featuring street art.
The selected locations include high profile sites, mostly on third-party assets, and which have been identified as illegal graffiti hotspots.
Usually, councils can’t remove graffiti or touch assets owned by the Victorian Government and third parties
such as utility suppliers and transport providers.
Under the Urban Canvas project, however, government agencies and companies including Australia Post, Transport Victoria, NBN Co, Telstra, United Energy, Citipower and South East Water have given permission for art to appear on their assets.
This creative approach to graffiti management will deter vandalism and make high-profile spaces feel safer and more connected through a shared appreciation of what makes each city unique.
“Kingston has already installed a number of much-loved murals across our city in a celebration of public art and to deter graffiti and we are very excited what this partnership promises to achieve as we collectively work to make our neighbourhoods look their very best,” said City of Kingston mayor, Hadi Saab.

Willie wagtail sets a record
ONE of a pair of willie wagtails nesting near the bird hide at Edithvale wetlands has rewritten the record books.
Numbers on a metal band on the bird’s leg showed it had been wearing the band for nearly 11 years, making it the oldest recorded willie wagtails.

Birdlife Australia’s Andrew Silcocks banded the bird 10 years, 10 months and eight days before it was photographed feeding chicks at the Edithvale nest.
The previous record for a willie wagtail was held by a willie wagtail in NSW that was “resighted” after nine years and seven months.
Friends of Edithvale and Seaford Wetlands member Peter Murphy said the band on the record-setting wagtail was noticed in January by visitors watching the birds tending a nest near the bird hide.
“On Friday 20 January it was noticed that a doting pair of willie wagtails had built their spider web-constructed nest very near to the entrance of the bird hide,” Murphy said.
“They seemed not to be fazed by bird hide visitors who marvelled at their constant care and attention to their three little chicks.
“This is a fairly common bird but is also very cute and familiar to us all with its joyous whistling call.”
Murphy said a photograph clearly showed the numbers on the bird band which, after being checked with the Australian Bird and Bat Banding scheme, a government department in Canberra, was found to the bird banded by Silcocks.
Details on the willie wagtails record show it was banded on 12 March 2012 with band number 037-26289 at an island in the Edithvale wetlands just south of bird hide. It had been born in 2011/12 season.

Hockey club sticks at it for fifty years
FRANKSTON Hockey Club has celebrated 50 years of fun and friendship within the City of Frankston. The club was founded in 1973 by a group of passionate local players that consisted of hockey greats Robert “Chicken” Howell and triple Olympian Des Piper. Together, the club took a trip down memory lane on Saturday 1 April for an anniversary celebration and shared
stories and laughs as Teams of the Decades were announced.
Joining in on the celebration were founding members Neil Rist, Russell “Hollywood” Whitney and triple Olympian Des Piper who were accompanied by a strong showing of Life Members and family members of other founding members who were not able to make the evening.
“We were grateful to have Des make
the journey from NSW and join us on the evening who was named captain of men’s Team of the Half Century,” current president Chris Wall said.
“The night was not only a milestone celebration and announcement of the teams, but it also served as a great opportunity for teammates and volunteers to re-connect as well as introduce the current generation of members to the Stingrays who came
before them.”
The club has experienced many highlights of the last 50 years including being one of only four Melbourne clubs to grow memberships past prepandemic numbers, Mr Wall said.
“2022 saw the club clear 240 active memberships with 2023 looking to be even stronger,” he said.
Other recent highlights include the women’s first grade premiership in
2019 and men’s first grade premiership in 2022.
In the last 12 months, there has also been the fantastic efforts of Victorian Masters Representatives Travis and Chris Firth and Victorian Junior Under-15s representative Kobi Hull. Mr Wall said the club was looking forward to celebrating more feats and milestones as the Stingrays forges ahead in the next 50 years.
Sculpture, art for the open air
THREE sculpture parks - McClelland Sculpture Park and Gallery, Langwarrin, Pt Leo Estate, Merricks and Montalto Winery, Red Hill South – will collectively celebrate International Sculpture Day on Saturday 29 April.
The three open air spaces contain collections that unite sculpture and nature.
McClelland director Lisa Byrne said the Mornington Peninsula was home to the largest collections of sculptures in Australia.
“This collaboration is an experience not to be missed … at McClelland we champion the value of
diversity within Australian culture through a specific focus on sculpture and its connection to the environment,” she said.
“We are committed to high quality creative and educational experiences while supporting contemporary artists to develop, create and present their work.”
McClelland will offer free entry and guided tours for all visitors on the day.
Pt Leo Estate general manager
Roger Lancia said the estate was encouraging locals to explore and experience the world class art available in their own backyard.
“Our owners are passionate advocates for the arts, collecting for over 40 years. They have carefully selected some 60 pieces from Australian and International artists to be exhibited since we opened. We are fortunate to be home to significant works by Australian artists such as Deborah Halpern, Bruce Armstrong, Dean Bowen and Reko Rennie, as well as international artists KAWS, Tony Cragg, Jaume Plensa, Julian Opie and most recently Ukrainian artist Dmitriy Grek,” he said.
“Together, the sculptures create a spectacular experience against a background of rolling vineyards and
ocean view. We would love people to discover it for themselves.”
Guests can book a tour and lunch in Pt Leo restaurant with the estate’s curatorial advisor, Geoffrey Edwards.
Montalto will celebrate the last weekend of its 2022 Sculpture Prize Exhibition, which officially ends on 30 April. The global day presents an opportunity for visitors to enjoy the finalists’ entries sitting alongside Montalto’s permanent collection.
Montalto is in its 20th consecutive year of presenting sculpture among the vines and wetlands and will showcase its permanent collection
of 35 artworks alongside the 23 finalists.
Creative director of sculpture Neil William said International Sculpture Day was an opportunity to bring to focus the creativity and skill of local, national and international artists and applaud their creations.
The Montalto sculpture trail is from 11am–5pm and is free for all visitors to the estate.
International Sculpture Day will give visitors a day of discovery across the Mornington Peninsula Arts and Culture trail from Langwarrin to Merricks and Red Hill South.

THURSDAY I’M A CELEBRITY… GET ME OUT OF HERE!
TEN, 7.30pm
It’s been a bittersweet season for fans of I’m a Celebrity… this year – while hosts Dr Chris Brown and Julia Morris (pictured) are happily ensconced in South Africa’s Kruger National Park for the first time in three years, it’s the untraditional pairing’s last hurrah for the foreseeable future, with Brown decamping to rival network Seven in July. Until then, the number of hangry and humbled celebrities in the so-called jungle is starting to dwindle.
SATURDAY DEADPOOL 2

TEN, 7.30pm
SUNDAY SOCCER
10 BOLD, 3pm
It’s a historic year for women’s soccer (or football, if you will) in Australia. With the Matildas recently scoring a landmark victory over England, breaking a 30game winning streak ahead of the FIFA Women’s World Cup on home soil in July, there’s never been a better time to get behind the sport. Western United will play in this year’s A-League Grand Final today, hoping to finish their debut season with the championship trophy in hand. Tara Rushton (pictured above) leads the coverage live from Sydney’s CommBank Stadium.
While many cooks follow recipes dutifully, step-by-step, we all know those who can craft masterpieces by adding and substituting ingredients on the fly. The makers of MasterChef are in the latter category – deftly mixing classic flavours Fans & , making the kids MasterChef , and now keeping us on our toes with a Secrets season. In tonight’s premiere, the contestants are immediately thrown in the deep end when Jamie Oliver arrives.

GRAND KYIV BALLET OF UKRAINE TO TOUR AUSTRALIA
FROM the trauma and heartbreak of war in their country, to the major cities of USA and Europe. Now to the stages of New Zealand and Australia...this is the Grand Kyiv Ballet of Ukraine.
The Grand Kyiv Ballet of Ukraine was formed in 2014 by the premier dancer of the National Opera of Ukraine, Oleksandr Stoianov. Oleksandr is not only the principal dancer of the Grand Kyiv Ballet, but also Artistic Director and Producer. He is renowned for his high jumps, energy and is known as the modern Nureyev.
The company perform a diverse range of classical repertoire, including the legendary ballets Forest Song, Don Quixote, Swan Lake, Giselle, and Carmen Suite, as well as other contemporary ballets.
Since the outbreak of war in 2022, at the request of their families, the Grand Kyiv Ballet have remained outside of Ukraine. They now dance all around the world including tours throughout Europe, United States of America, China, and South America.
In April, May & June 2023, the Grand Kyiv Ballet of Ukraine will perform their double bill, Forest Song & Don Quixote, throughout New Zealand and Australia
Act One – The Ukrainian showpiece...Forest Song
This legendary ballet has for more than 75 years remained the pride of Ukraine and a reflection of their cultural heritage.
Forest Song is a magical love story, full of mysticism, highlighting the conflict between the human world and nature. It tells a tale of love between a man Lukash, and a fantastical forest creature, Mavka. The fearless and brave Mavka longs for peace in her world, just as Ukraine longs for peace in her country today. The ballet is filled with intricate duets, fouettés and complex choreographic pieces. Forest Song will be performed for the first time
ever in New Zealand.
Act Two – Don Quixote
Edited into one vibrant act, this flamboyant and festive Spanish ballet is a much-loved romantic comedy. It tells the story of a courageous but troubled man’s quest for love.

Anzac Day commemorative service at Frankston
Compiled by Cameron McCullough
ANZAC Day was observed as a closed holiday in Frankston last Wednesday by many of the business people.
It was noteworthy that all returned soldiers closed their shops during the whole day. It is difficult to realise why the full significance of the day should appeal less to John Citizen than to the man who offered his all for the freedom of his country.
At 3 o’clock in the afternoon a commemorative service was held under the arch at the Honor Avenue.
The attendance was not as large as in former years, due no doubt to lack of proper organisation. The Frankston branch of the Returned Soldiers’ Association would find the general public not unwilling to assist in carrying out arrangements provided they were invited to do so.
The arch was draped with flags, the Union Jack and the Australian flags occupying prominent positions.
A large number of returned soldiers were in attendance. A lorry drawn up in front served as a platform on which was accommodated a piano used to assist in the singing. Mr. R. Fairnie acted as accompanist, and the opening hymn “All People That on Earth Do Dwell” went with a fine swing.
The popular Padre, Rev. Hugh Jones, of Ormond, conducted the proceedings.
The following prayer in commemoration of the fallen was given by Lieut.
Well, of the Salvation Army,
“O Lord, Thou Lover of Souls, who through the mouth of Thy prophet of old his declared that all souls are Thine; we thank Thee for the brave and faithful dead who willingly laid down their lives on the battlefields in the war,
or succumbed to the perils of the deep. We bless Thee for the dauntless courage of the sailors and soldiers of our Empire in the cause of truth and righteousness; in Thy hands, O Father, we leave their departed spirits, for Thou hast redeemed them through the blood of Thy dear son. Grant us so to follow their good example in faithfulness and endurance, even unto death, that we may be found worthy of the crown of everlasting life, through the merit of Jesus Christ our Saviour. Amen.”
After the hymn, “Nearer, My God to Thee,” Mr. W. E. Watkins read the 66th Psalm.
The Rev. A. P. McFarlane (Anglican) was the first speaker. He said that the gathering was essentially, a religious one. The people had assembled to thank God for all He has done for them and the passage of Scripture just read gave the keynote of the service.
They had to thank God that in the hour of danger the young men, whose deaths they were that day commemorating, were inspired to perform a noble and splendid work.
They did their duty in the face of appalling difficulties, going onward in the spirit of self-sacrifice while guns were belching forth death on every side.
They not only did their duty, but they did it bravely.
They gave their very best – all they had – their very lives. The speaker believed that all the events of life are entirely under the control of God, and praise and glory should be given to Him for such splendid men and all they did for us.
The Lord’s Prayer was then repeated by the congregation.
Rev. A. E. Wellard, (Methodist) said their was no need to hesitate in giving
praise concerning the deeds at Gallipoli on 25th April, 1915. All the world acknowledged that the heroism of our soldiers on that occasion would never be forgotten.
Because of the noble deeds of our men we were proud to call them sons of Australia and their exploits had made us prouder of the Union Jack and our Australian flag.
The people of the present day should feel themselves pledged to peace, because of the great sacrifice they make to win freedom; and in striving to maintain peace we should exhibit the same magnificent faith and courage as did the men of 1915.
Many present day evils should be fought in the same way when nobility of character as well as courage was required.
Kipling’s “Recessional” was then sung.
Mr. W.E. Watkins (Presbyterian) felt it a great privilege to be asked by the Returned Soldiers’ League to say a word or two on this memorable occasion.
They were celebrating an event which stood out gloriously in the history of our young nation. He would not add to what previous speakers had said in extolling the heroism of our soldiers. It did not seem necessary.
One could only feel an infinite pity for those who did not appreciate the noble men of Anzac.
Mr. Watkins thought that consideration might be given to the manner of perpetuating the event.
There appeared to be no unanimity of opinion on the subject. Personally he thought the ceremony should have a religious setting.
The soldiers gave their lives for all
PUZZLE ZONE
the things that God loved best. Remembering this consideration should be given as to how best to conserve and bring into the National life the spirit that actuated our men on 25th April, 1915.
How best could we guard and preserve the essence of that great sacrifice. One day should be fixed to commemorate Anzac Day, and the speaker favored the fourth Sunday of April, when all the people throughout the land could take part in a service of sweet reasonableness and make resolves to live as nobly as our brave soldiers had died.
Rev. Hugh Jones opened his address by asking all who had visited the War Museum in Melbourne to hold up their hand.
He noticed that only a few could signify in the affirmative, and suggested that parents make a point of taking their children to view the Museum before it was removed to Sydney.
It would help them to visualise some of the ideas they had regarding the events of the Great War.
There they would see one of the boats, very much worn and broken; in which our men had made the landing on Gallipoli.
It was necessary that the young people should grow up in a full knowledge of all they owed to our soldiers. It seemed to him that the sacrifices of our men who gave their lives seemed to range in a measure alongside those of the one good Man: “No man taketh my life from me; I layeth it down of myself.”
Our soldiers had been no conscripts; they gave their lives voluntarily, as a duty to their country. These soldiers were our representatives; they went
out to serve and to die and their actions seemed to represent the sacrifice of the only begotten Son.
His opinion was that we were not grateful enough to our returned soldiers; some of whom laid down their lives just as truly as those whose bodies were now under the sod.
He besought tolerance for the incapacitated, many of whom had their nervous systems shattered beyond hope of recovery.
Lieut.-Colonel Lazarus said that although he felt tempted to refer to the remarks of previous speakers, he had to remember that he had a distinct function to perform, and that was to make a final appeal for funds in connection with the Frankston soldiers’ memorial.
He could say, however, he viewed Anzac Day as much as a birthday, as the anniversary of the more sorrowful occasion connected with the passing of loved comrades.
Anzac Day represented a majestic birth – it was the birthday of glorious nation. Twelve, months ago he had appeared before the people of Frankston as a stranger. He had a distinct message that day, and he gratefully remembered how finely the people had responded to the appeal for funds for the solders’ memorial.
The date of the erection and unveiling of the memorial was now on site, and with the money he felt sure of collecting that day the fund would be closed.
In addition, the committee would have enough money to add another room to the soldiers’ club house. ***

Dromana's walk in the park against Rosebud, Crib Point smash struggling Rye
MPNFL
By Brodie CowburnDIVISION ONE
AFTER coming off a win against Red Hill last week, Rosebud faced Dromana at home on Saturday.
It was never going to be their day, with Dromana quick out of the blocks, slotting 3.3 to four single points for Rosebud by quarter time.
Dromana went hard in the second quarter, piling on another seven goals to Rosebud’s solitary major to be 53 points up at the main break.
It was pedestrian for Dromana from then on, maintaining the margin through to the final siren with a 60-point win 14.9 to 4.9.
Red Hill have yet to notch up a win for 2023, after going down to Mt Eliza by 65 points on Saturday.
It was a clinical exercise for the Redlegs.
While there were only 15 points in it at quarter time, Mt Eliza put the thumb screws on Red Hill in the second quarter to have a 41-point lead at the main break.
Red Hill were never in it and with the final score 13.16 to 4.5, they must be contemplating a difficult 2023 season.
Sorrento were coming off a loss last week to Frankston YCW when they came up against Pines this week.
The Pythons came out swinging in the first quarter with eight scoring shots to two. Inaccuracy in front of the sticks spoke of a lost opportunity as Pines went into the first quarter with only an 11-point lead.
The Sharks, slow in the water for the first quarter, picked up the pace in the second, slotting four majors. Pines managed five scoring shots, but while the Sharks hit the middle every time, inaccuracy in front meant they were only two points up at half time.
By the three-quarter break, Sorrento had managed to get their noses in front with a single point lead.
In the final quarter, Sorrento managed to pull away and at the final siren held on with a six point margin.
Although Pines had 26 scoring shots for the day compared to Sorrento’s 17, Sorrento’s accuracy saw them with a final score of 13.4 (82) to Pines’ 10.16 (76).
Leigh Poholke was the standout goal kicker for Sorrento with five majors.
Bonbeach hit the road to Langwarrin to take on the Kangaroos.
Having played in the Grand Final last year, Bonbeach had yet to notch a win for the season. But either had Langwarrin who went into the match with a loss and a draw to their name.
It was all tied up at quarter time, 16 points each. It was only in the second quarter that Langwarrin started to show their dominance on the scoreboard, slotting three goals to one for the quarter. They went into the big break with a 14-point lead.
After half time, the Kangaroos put their feet to the floor and punched on nine goals to Bonbeach’s two in what was to prove a game winning quarter.
The status quo remained in the final quarter with both teams slotting three majors each. When the final siren came, the scores were 17.14 (116)to Langwarrin and 8.10 (58) for
Bonbeach.
The best goal kickers for Langwarrin were Harrison Paul with five, Matthew Peynenborg with four and Sean Herdman with three.
Wrapping up the Anzac round was the local derby between Frankston Bombers and Frankston YCW.
Frankston Bombers came out strongly against last year’s Premiers and ladder leaders. They had an impressive nine scoring shots to three in the first quarter, but inaccuracy left them with only a six-point margin at the first break.
The Stonecats managed to claw back in the second half to have it all tied up at 32 points each at the big break.
The third quarter was a war of attrition, as each team slogged it out in a back-and-forth affair that saw no change in the scoreboard.
It was only in the final quarter that Frankston YCW drilled down against the Bombers to show why they are the best team in the league again in 2023. In a free-flowing quarter, the Stonecats added eight goals, while restricting the Bombers to five.
The final score ended up in Frankston YCW’s favour 12.13 (85) to 9.11 (65).
DIVISION TWO
IT’S been a lean few years for the Crib Point seniors. They finished bottom of the ladder last year notching up two wins. But after a stunning first round in 2023, the belief is back, and anything could happen in 2023.
Rye, on the other hand, has had a ter-
rible start to 2023. Yet to get a win, they have taken the Magpie’s spot as the division’s cellar-dwellers.
Things were only going to get worse for the Demons on Saturday as Crib Point undertook a systematic dismantling of Rye throughout the day.
The Magpies got off to a flying start, slotting eight goals to two in the first quarter to go into the first break with a 36-point lead.
Rye managed four majors in the second quarter to bring Crib Point’s lead back to 30 points at the main break.
The third quarter, Crib Point put Rye to the sword, kicking nine goals to three and opening up a 70-point lead by three quarter time.
The Magpies kept the Demons goalless in the final and finished up dishing out a 93-point drubbing with the final score 23.16 (154) to 9.7 (61).
Crib Point must be feeling like the tide has turned for them, while it looks like nothing short of an exorcism will save the Demons in 2023.
Chelsea hit the road and headed to Karingal for their Saturday game, fresh off a nice win over Somerville last week.
Karingal had yet to lose a match in their first two rounds with one win and one match abandoned due to the injury of ruckman Reuben Hanson.
It was close in the first quarter with Karingal seven points up at the first break. They applied some more pressure in the second and third quarters, going to the breaks 16 points and 18 points up.
In the final quarter, Karingal restricted Chelsea to a single major and managed to move away to notch up a 29-point win. The final score was 9.14
(68) to 4.15 (39).
Edithvale-Aspendale were fresh off a loss last week when they came up against Seaford Tigers on Saturday.
They weren’t going to make the same mistake twice, and they came out firing in the first quarter. In fact, it was pretty much all over by quarter time as they slotted 8.2 to a single major for Seaford Tigers. That’s a 44-point lead by quarter time!
The Tigers tried in the second with an impressive nine scoring shots in the quarter, but with seven of them going through for minor scores, they couldn’t make a dent on Edi-Asp’s lead. It was 50 points at the big break.
The Eagles continued to apply more pressure in the third quarter to take the lead out to 64 points at the threequarter break and bought it home in the final for a drubbing.
The final score was Edi-Asp 18.12 (120) to Seaford Tiger’s 6.11 (47).
Kurt Lo Po was the leading goal kicker for the victors with seven goals.
Tyabb and Hastings were both coming into this week’s round with a loss last week. Tyabb have struggled over the last few years but, like Crib Point, had started 2023 with an inspiring win.
Saturday turned out to be a walk in the park for the Yabbies as Hastings failed to put up any real resistance.
Held scoreless in the first quarter, and only managing two points in the second, Tyabb went off for the main break 9.8 (62) to 0.2 (2).
Hastings managed to get a couple of majors on the board in the third, but it was too little, too late and Tyabb extended their lead to 78 points by threequarter time.
Both teams managed to score four
goals in the final terms, but the Yabbies had it in the bag and hit the showers 78-point winners.
Among a raft of goal kickers, Jake Anderson was the best for Tyabb with six.
On paper, Somerville and Pearcedale looked evenly matched. And the scoreboard reflected that all day.
Somerville went into the first break with a six-point lead and the main break with a 13-point lead.
The Dales were never out of it and back and forth in the third saw them two straight kicks down at three quarter time.
They managed to peg it back a little in the final term but fell nine points short, with the Eagles running out winners.
The final match of the round was a see-sawing affair between Devon Meadows and Mornington.
Mornington got the best start with seven scoring shots to three in the first quarter giving them a nine-point lead at the break.
Devon Meadows found the middle of the sticks five times in the second to edge ahead by three points at half time.
The third quarter should have seen the Panthers run away with it. They had eight scoring shots to three but put six of them through for minor scores. So, despite all the effort, they went into three quarter time still with only a three-point lead.
Mornington managed to grind back against Devon Meadows in the last and got their noses in front. When the final siren came, the Bulldogs were just five points up, but it was enough to get the chocolates.
Powell on top of the Mount
SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzieA MAN-OF-THE-MATCH performance from Jamie Powell underpinned Mount Eliza’s 3-1 derby success against Mount Martha in their State 5 clash at Civic Reserve on Saturday.
The visitors had planned to attack Mount Martha out wide and with Powell and Lachie Mitchell on song it worked a treat.
Mount Eliza player-coach Bryce Ruthven went close with a free kick and midfielder Fraser Keon made a superb run only to force a corner in the early exchanges.
Powell broke the deadlock in the 41st minute with an excellent run before taking on Mount Martha right back Dan Fernandes and unleashing a fine far post finish to make it 1-0.
Another fine run down the left by Powell six minutes into the second half saw him cross to Mitchell whose header gave the visitors a two-goal cushion.
The contest was put out of Mount Martha’s reach in the 73rd minute after the home side tried to play through the centre corridor and good pressing from Powell and Keon won the ball sending Chris Parry through and he made no mistake.
Mount Martha’s Anton Beeby scored in the 82nd minute but it was little consolation for the home side who had been outplayed for much of the match.
While Mount Eliza players were celebrating at the final whistle there were similar scenes at Baxter Park after the home team broke through for its first win of the State 4 season.
Baxter’s 2-1 win on Saturday against Endeavour United was fitting revenge over an opponent that had dumped it out of the Australia Cup in February.
Liam Baxter had returned from Scotland the previous day and was on the Baxter bench alongside Brodie Jones who had been sick throughout the week.
But the Scottish striker was thrust into the action when key Baxter forward Lachie McMinimee had to be replaced due to a hamstring injury after 20 minutes.
Jack Elliott sent Keegan Myatt through in the 26th minute but Endeavour keeper Thomas Andersen smothered well and in the 38th minute Myatt’s shot struck the bar before being cleared.
In time added in the first half Aiden McKenna’s long throw from the right was met with a glancing header from Elliott which went in at the back post.
completed the rout.

In State 5 Aspendale won the battle between two undefeated teams when it downed Casey Panthers 3-2 at Prospect Hill Reserve on Saturday while Rosebud overpowered Barton United 7-0 at Barton Recreation Reserve.
Jared Kilmartin, Matthew Leggett and Dom Paul were Aspendale’s scorers. For Rosebud Noah Musso ran riot with four goals, Davis Markulin had a double and Julien Dos Santos also got on the scoresheet.
Powell power: Mount Eliza winger Jamie Powell takes on Mount Martha’s Neal Byrne at Civic Reserve last weekend.
Inset: Baxter matchwinner Dallas McNeill.
Rosebud and Aspendale are maintaining their promotion push in second and third spot respectively.
Mentone paid the price for a poor defensive display against Bunyip District at Heatherbrae Reserve last weekend going in 4-1 down at halftime with Joe Dunbar scoring for the Panthers.
Goals from Marcus Spivey (2) and Eric Ervine drew the visitors level but a late goal made it 5-4 in favour of the home side.
But Endeavour hit back six minutes into the second period when a corner was headed on giving Henry Gordon a tap-in at the far post to make it 1-1.
Baxter’s free-kick forced Andersen into a full-stretch tip over in the 80th minute but he was helpless to stop substitute Dallas McNeill from stealing the show with a stunning strike after cutting in from the left in the 90th minute.
In NPL2 Langwarrin lost a controversial clash 4-1 away to Manningham United Blues last weekend.
Archie Macphee headed Langy in front after two minutes but it was one of the few moments of joy for the visitors who claim they had to endure a series of contentious decisions.
Langwarrin was expected to lodge a complaint as we went to press.
In State 1 Mornington is now on top of the league after winning its fourth game straight when it beat Springvale White Eagles 1-0 at the Serbian Sports Centre on Friday night.
The winner came courtesy of a superbly weighted and flighted Danny Brooks ball that was headed home by David Stirton in the 41st minute.
Late in the match an outstanding double save from Mornington keeper Kane Runge preserved the visitors’ lead.
Former Frankston Pines keeper Tommy Hull made his debut for the home side.
In State 2 Skye beat league leader Mazenod 3-1 at Skye Recreation Reserve on Saturday.
Both sides came into the match undefeated and with the best two defensive records in the competition but two minutes in Mitch Blake latched onto a wayward Leo McLeod touch and finished well into the bottom corner.
Two minutes later McLeod cleverly lobbed advancing Mazenod goalkeeper James Edgar to make it 2-0.
The visitors hit back when Stuart Edgar converted from the penalty spot in the 23rd minute however in the 56th minute they were reduced to 10 men when Alan Brandao kicked out and was given a straight red.
McLeod made the points safe in the 83rd minute when he was on the end of a Marcus Collier through ball and curled his effort into the bottom right corner.
The John Ramsden Memorial Winners were McLeod in the seniors and Alessio Izzo in the reserves.
Frankston Pines are still searching for a first league win after going down 4-0 at home to Mooroolbark.
The visitors gave Pines a lesson in efficiency and while Pines made a series of forays into the Barkers’ penalty area in the first half they were 3-0 down at half-time.
Pines can’t keep the ball and their impotence in attack is glaring.

other five weeks to go before returning from work commitments and the club could find itself entrenched in the relegation zone by then if it can’t turn things around quickly.
On Sunday Peninsula Strikers lost 1-0 at home to North Caulfield.
A moment of ill-discipline cost Strikers when keeper Nathan Brown was sent off for violent conduct in the 8th minute but the 10 men spurned chances to score especially in the second half when Riley Anderton should have made better contact with a header right in front.
In State 4 Somerville swamped Keysborough 7-0 to keep pace with the title contenders.
Nick Simmons started the onslaught when he headed home from a Conor McFall free-kick in the 33rd minute and four minutes later Marcus Anastasiou sent Joe Simmons through and he made it 2-0.
The Simmons show continued three minutes after the break when Tom Simmons beat three opponents then struck a low shot past Keysborough keeper Max Krista for the third.
It was 4-0 in the 54th minute after a McFall ball over the top set up Xavier Apela who hammered it past Krista.
Tom Simmons nabbed his second in the 69th minute and McFall got in on the act a minute later smashing the ball home at the near post for the sixth.

Seaford United went down 2-0 away to league leader Hampton Park United.
