Advice cuts to hit homes Steve Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au

FUNDING cuts by the state government will mean struggling Kingston families miss out on free financial counselling – and many fear they will simply not be able to cope. The counselling services staff help them control their debts, keep water

and power connected, plan how to pay outstanding bills and even negotiate with providers on their behalf to forestall service cut-offs. The cuts will affect a part of Melbourne where complaints about utility bills and disconnections by utility companies are on the rise. They will result in 1050 fewer free consultations over a 12-month period. But the Liberal members for

suffering from the anticipated closure of the previously free community based services of Financial Counselling Victoria, in Centre Dandenong Rd, Cheltenham, voiced their concerns last week. They are angry that the service is losing all its funding. One client, Margaret Kelly, 73, of Highett, said that – like many other clients – she “would not have been

Mordialloc and Carrum, Lorraine Wreford and Donna Bauer, deny counselling services have been diminished. “There is no cut in funds nor in the number of counsellors across the state, but providers have changed based on needs. The new service is better targeted and more efficient,” Ms Wreford said. Despite these assurances, those

Her story echoes that of others assisted by the service: Under pressure from a bank chasing a $23,000 debt brought on by a business failure and unconscionable conduct by a family member, she was at her wits’ end.

Net gain as residents finally get up to speed

PSOs on patrol at Edithvale

Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au

PROTECTIVE services officers are now on patrol at Edithvale train station. The officers will patrol the train platform, car parks and immediate station surrounds from 6pm until the last train departs. Mordialloc MP Lorraine Wreford welcomed their deployment. “PSOs are targeting crime, violence and antisocial behaviour on the rail network, and improving safety of people travelling at night,” Ms Wreford said. “I’m pleased PSOs are now at Edithvale, and when they arrive at Aspendale shortly, all stations in the Mordialloc district will be covered.” Since their initial deployment in February 2012, PSOs have issued more than 29,000 infringements at stations across the state’s rail network

HIGH-speed internet services will finally be available to Aspendale Gardens residents near Winners Circle and Sanctuary Place. While other suburbs around the country await the much-hyped but long-delayed National Broadband Network, many parts of Kingston have suffered slow internet speeds due to network bottlenecks. The Aspendale Gardens Residents Association has been pushing for the area to have access to ADSL broadband services for years and Telstra has finally agreed to install an extra 50 ADSL connections at the local exchange hub. While ADSL is not the latest and greatest broadband technology, it is a welcome upgrade for Aspendale Gardens residents who have been plagued by slow internet service speeds. Kingston councillor Tamsin Bearsley has been at the forefront of the campaign to force the telco to add more broadband capacity to the Aspendale Gardens area. “I’m really pleased that many people in the west of Aspendale Gardens will have access to ADSL for the first time,” Cr Bearsley said. “It was no easy challenge, but a terrific team effort has delivered the result.” Cr Bearsley thanked Mordialloc MP Lorraine Wreford for help in making Telstra listen to residents’ demands. “Cr Bearsley brought the matter to my attention saying Kingston were struggling to get results,” Ms Wreford said. “I lobbied Telstra heavily and then put Cr Bearsley and Kingston in touch with the right people. After another

round of lobbying, we won the battle.” The network will be upgraded by Telstra in October to install an extra 50 ADSL connections at the local exchange. Telstra research found the additional capacity should be enough to meet extra demand. Just last week, Aspendale Gardens resident Sheri O’Neill expressed

frustration at the lack of sufficient internet services in the suburb, taking to the AGRA’s Facebook page to criticise Telstra’s lack of action on the issue. “I’m very disappointed with Telstra at the moment. I cannot believe in this day and age an affordable internet is not available to me. I have been on a waiting list for six months for an

ADSL port in my exchange. Before the exchange upgrade now announced many Aspendale Gardens residents were forced to wait until an ADSL port connection became available. Residents who now want to be connected to a faster ADSL broadband service should contact Telstra or their preferred internet service provider.

Parties clash over train claims THE Frankston line continues to be a bitter battleground between the major political parties ahead of this year’s state election amid claim and counter claim by politicians. The Coalition government has been keen to highlight train services performance improvements while the Labor opposition has labelled a promise to increase train services on the Frankson line “a con”. Carrum MP Donna Bauer said public transport users in the Carrum electorate would be among those to benefit from new weekly train, tram and bus services from the end of this month.

“A new morning peak service will be added to the Frankston line to cater for passengers travelling into the city,” Mrs Bauer said. “Since 2010, more than 180 extra train services per week have been added to the Frankston line and the Napthine government has invested heavily to ensure train punctuality lifted from just 62.6 per cent in May 2010, to 90.7 per cent in May 2014.” Labor minister for public transport Jill Hennessy disputed Coalition claims all Frankston line commuters would benefit from extra trains during peak times.

She said commuters on the Frankston line would lose two train services to Flinders St arriving in Melbourne between 8am and 9am, with these services reallocated to other lines. “The Napthine government calls it ‘additional train services’ but people on the Frankston line are losing services – it’s a con job,” Ms Hennessy said. Metro Trains website states: “The Frankston line will also have a new timetable, with customers to benefit from two extra services in the morning peak.” The new trains timetable will be introduced with effect from 27 July.

The bayside ‘sand belt’ seats are regarded as crucial to both major parties chances of winning government. Labor lost government at the 2010 state election with the marginal seats of Carrum and Mordialloc being won by Ms Bauer and Lorraine Wreford respectively. Public transport woes were widely regarded as one of the main reasons the Liberals won those seats from Labor. As the state election nears, politicians it is likely the Frankston line will become a main focus of electioneering by both major parties. Neil Walker

KINGSTON Arts is celebrating NAIDOC with a month-long program featuring a range of arts and cultural activities. NAIDOC week (6 to 13 July) recognises the valuable influence Indigenous people have on Australiaís national identity. Kingston mayor, Cr Paul Peulich, said council is committed to working with Kingston’s Aboriginal community to acknowledge and promote its rich history. “Council’s recently adopted Aboriginal Policy and Action Plan 2014-19 provides a foundation for preserving and encouraging Aboriginal cultural heritage and the wellbeing of the Aboriginal community in the City of Kingston,” Cr Peulich said. “The Policy and Action Plan has been developed in consultation with the community and Aboriginal peak bodies and is designed to assist the community over the next five years to understand the social and cultural aspirations of Aboriginal people in Kingston. “NAIDOC week is a great way to recognise the role Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders have contributed in shaping our identity. “It is wonderful to see such a diverse range of events happening throughout NAIDOC week in Kingston.” Kingston Arts will be providing a range of activities including a Bush Sculpture exhibition, a cooking demonstration and tasting, workshops and other public art activities.

Cooking up a tasty twist CHELSEA Heights ‘foodies’ will enjoy taking part in “Cooking with a twist” classes at the Chelsea Heights Community Centre. Tutor Maddie Race will host a series of fun cooking classes starting on Friday 18 July and running over nine weeks from 11.30am-1.30pm. The cost is $90 per person. Maddie’s focus is on teaching participants how to cook healthy, nutritious meals on a budget. All the produce is sourced locally – much of it from the centre’s own vegetable garden. Then, when the cooking’s done, participants can share their taste treats at lunch in a friendly, supportive setting. Program coordinator Lynne Pocknee described Maddie as a “passionate teacher” able to inspire and enthuse her students in kitchen crafts. “Many of the participants are sick of cooking and eating boring dishes, but here they will learn how to add flavour and excitement to their meals,” she said. “Maddie introduces them to a healthier way of eating, with more fresh fruit and veges – and far fewer packets.” The cooking classes ran for 18 weeks previously and the feedback was positive and demand for places strong, Ms Pocknee said. Those interested in joining these classes should phone 9772 3391 or email ch_htscc@ bigpond.net.au Chelsea Heights Community Centre is at Beazley Reserve, 160 Thames Promenade, Chelsea Heights.

Book looks at Mordialloc history Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au

Melbourne Food Alliance research fellow Rachel Carey is coming to Kingston to speak about her recent research into the economic value of farming on Melbourne’s fringe and Green Wedge areas. The research has significant implications for the role Kingston’s Green Wedge could play in providing both jobs and food security into the future. Ms Carey will be speaking as a guest of Kingston Conservation and Environment Coalition at Mordialloc Neighbourhood House, 457 Main St on Wednesday 16 July at 7pm. All welcome, entry is free.

ries and events,” Dr Whitehead says: “Such as the carnival of 1905 when hordes of people dressed in costumes formed a procession to the beach where they played football.” There were the infamous baby murders of 1913 when an obviously disturbed woman – one Isobella Newman – stood accused of offering to look after the babies of unwed mothers for a fee and then murdering them. The book describes the lives of the early Aboriginals in Mordialloc, and recounts the tragic sinking of a steamer carrying the Mornington football team home after a match against Mordialloc in 1891. Among the many who lost their lives were three boys from the one family. There are tales of the misery caused

by the Spanish flu in 1916, and the story behind the founding of the former Mordialloc College – to become the Mordialloc-Chelsea Secondary College – in the 1920s. Dr Whitehead recalls the “big fuss” in 1971 over a gas pipeline running from Gippsland, under the bay at Mordialloc beach, to Altona. “We have great shots of the protests,” he said. Some of the recollections are humorous, such as the anxious call one day from the manager of the Mordialloc Meals-on-Wheels service, Vera Phillips, to the local Salvos: “We desperately need two jockeys (helpers) for the day’s run – have you anyone who can fill in?” The Salvos officer-in-charge looked hesitantly across the room at two young

blokes playing snooker, one with a brightly-coloured Mohawk haircut, earrings and a mouth full of gum; the other – equally outrageous – with his hair parted down the middle and coloured red on one side and purple on the other. Off they went on the meals’ round with Mrs Phillips anxiously awaiting the outcome: what would her elderly clients think? Would there be trouble? She didn’t have to wait long for an answer: “Who were those lovely young men – they were delightful,” summarised the afternoon’s feedback. By the Creek, A Mordialloc History by Graham Whitehead and Leo Gamble, is on sale at all Kingston libraries for $25. Also available is Dr Whitehead’s history of Cheltenham, Two Acre Village, for $15.

THE state government’s $12 million Engage program will provide money for organisations and councils to establish volunteering and mentoring programs, and projects that boost real-life skills and connect young people to further education, training or careers. Minister for Youth Affairs Ryan Smith encourages organisations to reach out to young people and work with them to develop innovative projects that could be eligible for an Engage grant. The program will provide community organisations and local governments with the practical resources they need to listen, respond and create opportunities for young Victorians so that they can fulfil their potential, Mr Smith said. Since 2012 more than 100,000 young Victorians have been involved in Engage programs. Applications close on Friday 1 August. For more information or to apply visit www.youthcentral.vic.gov.au

MUCH of the historical information in By the Creek, A Mordialloc History by Graham Whitehead and his friend, Leo Gamble, has featured in Kingston Historical Society booklets and on its website over the years. But that wasn’t enough for many residents who wanted something to pore over, something glossy to treasure. “People would say to me, ‘We need a history of Mordialloc’,” Dr Whitehead said. “I’d tell them it’s all on the website, but they’d say, ‘No, we need a book’. Now they have one. By the Creek, A Mordialloc History is full of stories and photographs about Mordialloc’s past. It is a rich source of historical knowledge adding to our understanding of what has gone before and influencing how we are today. The book was launched last Thursday at a function at the Bridge Hotel attended by local members of parliament, the mayor, councillors, Kingston City officers and guests. It is 256 pages of interesting facts, tales, anecdotes, descriptions and photographs - some aerial - which Dr Whitehead describes as “magnificent”. Co-author Mr Gamble – “who has always been interested in local history”, according to Dr Whitehead - was a secondary school teacher at St Bedes and author of his own books Mentone Through the Years and A History of St Bedes. “The book has accounts of great sto-

Counselling cuts hit home Continued from page 1 Ms Kelly’s debts mounted after she borrowed to go back to nursing, her profession, and began “juggling the credit cards” to stay afloat. “I am not an irresponsible woman, and I always intended to pay it off bit by bit, but there was always more at stake,” she said. Letters of demand from the bank began to weigh on her and, distraught, she approached Centrelink which put her in touch with the counsellors. “The person I spoke to there could not have been more helpful,” she said. “He approached the bank and arranged a plan for how I would pay them. Without his help and support I would not be here today.” Ms Kelly said reducing the service “to an answering machine” – as some counselling services are destined to become - would destroy its effectiveness. “You’ve got to be able to speak to a person, to touch them. We are people, we are not inanimate objects.” Gail Robertson, business manager at Financial Counselling Victoria, said staff were gutted that their funding – previously $396,562 over two years – had ended. “We help 200 families a month and now we have nothing left so this will be a real kick in the guts for them,” she said. “I am now looking at other sources of funding or other business opportunities to try to raise money, but we simply cannot lose our financial counselling – it’s too valuable a service for our clients. “We believe we can stay open for another one or two years but we will be in real trouble if cannot get funding

from other sources.” The service employs three financial counsellors part time (two effective full timers) who work from the office and at outreach centres. Working part time is preferred because the stress on full time staff would be too hard to bear, Ms Robertson said. “The majority of people we see have mental health problems – not real mental problems but problems brought on by stress. We are the end of the road for them.” Illustrating the seriousness of the issues facing clients – and the counsellors – is that all staff are trained in first aid to assist with self-harm emergencies. “These are people in crisis; they are desperate and don’t know what to do next and that’s scary. We talk to them, get them to come in and make time for them. Without us being here I don’t know what they would do.”

She scoffed at suggestions a phone messaging service and waiting list for assistance – touted as a cure-all for the cuts - was a credible alternative. “If people are in crisis we can’t expect them to go on a waiting list.” Financial Counselling Victoria has been operating for the past 32 years – and from its Cheltenham base since 2002. “I wonder what we are going to do now,” she said. Labor spokeswoman for Consumer Protection Lily D’Ambrosio said: “Under the Liberals, families are paying more in utility bills yet losing the support, planning and counselling they need to pay them.” Labor candidate for Mordialloc, Tim Richardson, said: “Denis Napthine and the Liberals are pushing local families to the edge. If you rely on that extra bit of support to pay your bills, then you’re on your own.”

MPs: No change to funding, counselling now ‘needs based’ LIBERAL members for Mordialloc, Lorraine Wreford, and Carrum, Donna Bauer, say there have been no changes in the overall level of funding nor the number of financial counsellors in the new model, which they describe as “better targeted and more effective”. In recognition of changing demographics, there has been a reallocation of resources to areas of greatest need across the state, Ms Bauer said. Consumer Affairs Victoria assessed need using the latest ABS population and Social and Economic Index for Areas (SEIFA) data, they said. This is also how the allocation of 64 financial counsellors across Victoria was determined. “The revised financial counselling service model is expected to be better targeted, more accessible for those in need, and more efficient and effective,” Ms Bauer said. “The revised model will ensure people who are most vulnerable are prioritised for face-to-face services.” On 1 July, the Good Shepherd Youth and Family Services was contracted to provide financial counselling services for those living in the Carrum, Frankston and Mordialloc local government areas. Now known as Bayside Peninsula Financial Counselling Service it will service the

Bayside, Frankston, Glen Eira, Kingston, Mornington Peninsula, Port Phillip and Stonnington areas. Callers can ring 1300 765 595 and leave a message and they will be contacted within 24 hours. They will then be assessed to determine the level of service to which they are eligible and, depending on the outcome, will either receive information and referral or be booked in for financial counselling casework. The urgency of their situation will also determine how quickly clients get to see a financial counsellor. Good Shepherd currently has a full time financial counsellor working from the Frankston Community Information and Support Service CISS and is in the process of establishing a part-time position for the Mordialloc area. Consumers can also call MoneyHelp on 1800 007 007 if they urgently need to speak to a financial counsellor. The Consumer Affairs Victoria website has information on the new financial counselling program, including the eligibility criteria. Visit consumer.vic.gov.au/ clubs-and-not-for-profits/grants/ financial-counselling-program for further information. Stephen Taylor

Ironwoman’s trivia pursuit GETTING to the starting line is almost a victory in itself for ironman competitors, as the costs of competing are high and training takes up most of their free time. So, events such as trivia nights are vital fundraisers. Just ask athlete Kerrie Moore-Cook, 40, who has her sights on the 2014 lronman world championships in Hawaii in October. To help her cause, she is holding a trivia night at the Chelsea Activity Hub on Saturday 19 July for 160 guests. The Edithvale mother of three children aged 4, 6 and 9 did well at the Melbourne lronman (Asia Pacific Championships) in March, finishing second in the 40-44 years category. Her time for the 226km race of 9 hours 59 minutes 56 seconds qualified her for the Hawaii (Kona) championships. But why does she put herself through such agonies? “A major element is to, hopefully, reflect strong

discipline and dedication and to set an example for not only my own children but the broader community,” she said. “Although my performance exceeded my own expectations it validated the training, time and financial commitment I made to ensure I was able to represent my family, friends and local community to the best of my ability. “But, without family and community support, participating and excelling in an event as demanding as lronman is not possible.” The Chelsea Activity Hub is in Showers Ave. To book a place at the trivia night call Kevin Harrison on 0407 772 225 or email Kevin@ChelseaGoodyear.com.au Champion effort: Ironwoman Kerrie Moore-Cook finished second in the 40-44 years age category at the Asia-Pacific Championship held in Melbourne and now has the chance to compete on the world stage in Hawaii.

Give Wurlitzer a whirl ENTHUSIASTIC keyboard players and pianists are invited to try their hand at playing Kingston’s mighty Wurlitzer theatre pipe organ. On display at Kingston City Hall in Moorabbin, the Wurlitzer is used for civic functions and as pre-show entertainment for a number of events that tour Kingston City Hall. The Wurlitzer also features in solo performances each year, including the International Youth Silent Film Festival. Built in 1928, ‘The King of Instruments’ was brought to Australia from the United States. It was the largest theatre organ at the time and was installed in Melbourne’s State Theatre (now the Forum Theatre). It was moved to City Hall in 1970.

This intriguing instrument has 1500 pipes and 20 percussive instruments, along with a range of sound effects enabling the organist to replicate an entire orchestra. To celebrate its sounds, city organist Scott Harrison is offering enthusiasts an opportunity to sit at the Wurlitzer and learn how it works, and to try their hand at playing it. Mr Harrison is also looking to train up organists who will then be able to play the Wurlitzer when required, and learn how to assist with its maintenance. Contact marisa.cesario@kingston.vic.gov.au to be put in touch with Mr Harrison or for further information.

‘Record’ Libs health funding

Mentone there were several people at the station, and I was surprised when the 6.15pm Frankston train, which was about four minutes late, did not stop to pick up passengers! It was cold, with swirling wind and rain, and there is minimal protection from the weather on the southbound platform. I am 77, and have a chest infection, and waiting for the next train, which was also late, was not good for my state of health. Is this a new state government initiative to improve train punctuality by not stopping for passengers? Brian Earl, Mordialloc

IN reply to Nola Baker’s letter (State Libs ‘cut too’, The News, 18/6/14), I would like to clarify some points regarding funding for vital services. The Coalition government is investing a record $14.3 billion in our health system, $2 million more than Labor did in its last year in office; this includes $4.5 billion of capital investment underway at health services across the state. The $81 million Frankston Hospital redevelopment will double the physical size of Frankston Hospital’s emergency department and add three new hospital wards. The elective surgery waiting list has fallen significantly over the past year. During the first three months of this year 6184 more patients (18 per cent) were admitted than in the same period last year. Over that period the waiting list fell by 7.4 per cent. The Napthine government is also investing more money in the vocational education and training sector than Labor ever did - $1.2 billion per year for the next four years. In 2010 funding for TAFE provided by Labor was $487 million. In 2013 funding for TAFE provided by the coalition government was $600 million. TAFE enrolments increased from 187,000 in 2010 to 207,900 in

CHILDREN’S entertainers The Jellybugs hit the high notes at Chelsea Heights last week at a gig to raise money for the Make A Wish Foundation and Seeing Dogs Australia. The group’s energetic performance of dances such as Do The Worm sent kids at Chelsea Heights Community Centre off to Jellybugs land. The Jellybugs play all their instruments live to encourage children to enjoy live music. The fun and colourful show saw little audience members joining the band to fly like an aeroplane and build their own imaginary cubby house to the song Let’s Build (A Cubby House). Kids danced til their socks got hot!

‘Mad’ headline YOUR headline ‘Mad scientists mount mass protests over cuts’ (The News, 2/7/14) confuses me. These CSIRO scientists are not mad, they are angry over the loss of $115 million throughout the commonwealth and specifically the loss of local jobs at the Aspendale Climate science laboratory. No protest from Donna Bauer, Inga Peulich or Lorraine Wreford (who has a science degree!). Under climate change the water won’t be lapping at the doors in Canberra, but will in our inundation sensitive bayside suburbs. If your headline had mentioned the “Mad Monk� I would have understood, but I don’t understand where the priorities of our local state members lie. Wal Grahame, Mordialloc

FEATURE PROPERTY

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

Enhance the senses AT the end of a meandering driveway, flanked by native trees and shrubs, this stunning residence enjoys absolute privacy and a sense of serenity that will make you feel a world away. This visually intriguing home spreads out over 483 square metres (52 square) with a four-car garage centered between two distinct living zones. A virtually self-contained area in the south wing boasts a rumpus room with kitchen facilities and a full office also with a kitchen, bar and a powder room. A full length verandah connects to the remainder of the home as you enter into the dazzling family room. The spectacular kitchen has a massive island bench with stone benchtops and a full complement of stainless-steel appliances include a dishwasher, wall and convection ovens, plus a gas cooktop. The kitchen overlooks a casual meals area, perfectly orientated to take in a view of the pool area from the charming bay window, and a generous living space. The east wing begins with a calming rock garden and water feature acting as the backdrop to a formal dining area, and take a moment to imagine the memorable cocktail parties that could take place in the formal lounge with a magnificent open-fire place creating the ultimate ambience. Another powder room adjoins a smaller, separate study with the master bedroom - complete with twin walk-in robes and ensuite with spa bath - providing the final stop to this part of the home. The west wing houses four more bedrooms and a fourth bathroom, and given the already impressive family room and lounge that would serve adults very nicely, this section has the perfect set-up for children and teenagers with a first class home theatre room. Already overwhelmed with features, there is still a component to the property that cannot be faulted. The beautiful pool area merges with the tree-line in an almost “horizon� effect and includes a spa bath just a few steps from a lovely alfresco lounge. A full-size, modgrass tennis court is set further down the property, and branching off from the driveway is a double carport and a workshed for storing the work vehicles necessary to maintain the sprawling 1.6 hectare block.

‘App-y iPad winner EVIEW Real Estate in Chelsea have found a lucky winner for their ‘I Love Kingston City’ campaign. Entrants were invited to express in 50 words or less what they love about the City of Kingston. The competition ran for the month of June and the office was flooded with entries. The winning entry was from a Edithvale mother who wrote: “Our city of Kingston provides a haven for our young family. Clean beaches, safe streets, cafes that serve with a smile and a community we love exploring. As our family becomes familiar with kinders, schools, parks and library, we know our decision to live here was a fantastic one.�

Showdown: Shadow minister for seniors and ageing Jenny Mikakos joined about 30 protesters at Carinya Nursing Home in Golf Links Rd, Frankston, on Thursday to condemn plans to transfer the operation of the centre to a private operator. Picture: Gary Sissons

Anger mounts over aged care ‘sell-off’ Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au PENINSULA Health has come under fire over plans to privatise its last remaining residential aged care centres, with members of staff and families of patients holding a protest last week to voice their concerns. Shadow minister for seniors and ageing Jenny Mikakos joined about 30 protesters at Carinya Nursing Home in Golf Links Rd, Frankston on Thursday to condemn plans to transfer the operation of the centre to a private operator. Peninsula Health has invited not-for-profit and non-government care providers to tender for the rights to operate Carinya, which has 30 beds, and the 18-bed Michael Court centre in Seaford, as well as the “the opportunity to acquire a further 42 licenses for future residential aged care expansion”. Both centres provide specialist care for elderly people suffering mental illnesses and behavioural problems associated with dementia, schizophrenia and bipolar disorders who cannot be managed in mainstream aged care homes. The 70 full and part-time staff employed across the two sites have been told they will be offered “ongoing roles at other Peninsula Health sites”. However, Health and Community Services Union state secretary Lloyd Williams said staff were “extremely concerned” about both care standards provided for the “highly vulnerable” residents and potential job cut backs at the two facilities. “We’re at a loss to explain why they’d chose to go down this path other than to cut wages and wind back conditions,” Mr Williams said. “These individuals require extremely specialised care which they are currently getting from the devoted and purpose trained staff at the two centres, so a major change like this can be very traumatising for them.” He said wages and conditions such as staff-topatient ratios under public sector enterprise bargaining agreements were far better than those in the private sector. “So this has nothing to do with quality and everything to do with driving down wages and costs,” Mr Williams said. “The government’s own description of this service says is that they are specialist bed-based services for people who cannot be managed in mainstream aged residential care due to emotional or the behavioural disturbance. “They are being handed over to the for-profit or non-government sector, which will only be able to make them viable by cutting costs through decreased care standards. These are some of the most vulnerable people in our community and the

Napthine Government is abandoning them.” However, Peninsula Health officials say the decision is due to inadequate capital reserves to finance necessary future expansion. The move follows Peninsula Health’s transfer in 2012 of residential aged care operations at Rosebud to Southern Cross Care and means Peninsula Health will no longer operate any aged care facilities. It is anticipated the new operator will transfer all 90 licensed beds to a single purpose-build residential care centre. Ms Mikakos said there was no guarantee the beds would remain specialist mental health beds, or would remain in the local area in the future. She said the “sell-off”, which created great uncertainty for patients, had been forced by the Napthine Government’s lack of funding and support for the aged care sector. “This is terrible news for staff, residents and families at Carinya and Michael Court – their future is now uncertain,” Ms Mikakos said. “Denis Napthine is hell bent on privatising our proud, publicly-run aged care facilities, and only Labor will put a stop to it.” But Health Minister David Davis said the “partnership” deal Peninsula Health was looking at with a private operator would lead to an expansion of aged care services for the Frankston and peninsula community by reopening aged care beds closed under Labor. “Jenny Mikakos should be ashamed of this latest Labor scare campaign when she knows full well that, in fact, it was Labor who oversaw the closures of aged care beds in Frankston and Rosebud in 2009,” a spokesman for Mr Davis said. “The Peninsula Health proposal follows the successfully negotiated transfer of places between Peninsula Health and Southern Cross Care for the Rosebud Residential Aged Care Facility on the Mornington Peninsula. As part of this transfer, Southern Cross Care will be increasing the number of beds available to the community from 50 to 120. “This will include the development of a new facility on the Cairns Avenue site over the coming years, providing new employment opportunities for locals.” He said the federal government regulated all residential aged care services across Australia, which meant that regardless of whether they are run by government or non-government operators, they must all comply with the same national standards. “The Coalition government wants to see growth in aged care places, continued provision of high quality services as well as facilities and infrastructure that meet modern 21st century standards.”

Accusations fly over bird sale Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au MORE than feathers are being ruffled among bird breeders following allegations of mistreatment of birds offered for sale last month at Skye. Paris Yves has complained to the RSPCA and Department of Environment and Primary Industries about the cruel treatment of parrots being displayed in small, inadequate boxes. A long time campaigner against mistreatment of birds either kept as pets of for breeding, Ms Yves, of Mt Eliza, says she has been bullied since going public with her latest complaints. The bird “sale and expo” at the Western Port Highway headquarters of Dogs Victoria was run by the Mornington Peninsula Avicultural Society on Sunday 25 May. The society’s president, David Renshaw, did not want to comment on the allegations by Ms Yves without first discussing it with the society’s committee. “I’m not prepared to give you a comment without prior notice,” he said. He said the matter had been placed in the hands of a solicitor. Mr Renshaw said all bird sales were run under a code of practice, which was “scrutinised by scrutineers”. Photographs taken by Ms Yves at the bird sale show a large sign stating a code of practice administered by the Victorian Avicultural Council. However, Ms Yves said it was unsatisfactory to have the VAC “policing themselves”. “It is inexcusable that most birds -

except the Gouldian finches in the lovely great aviary - were displayed in such an unethical way,” she said. “It was truly like walking through the back streets of an Indian market. “I am amid a public campaign so that Australians can finally discover the truth about companion bird abuse and lack of welfare and lack of laws. There is no going back now.”

Ms Yves’s emails to and discussions with breeders had come down to semantics, with some breeders claiming birds kept for breeding purposes were not companion birds. She says the law does not differentiate between the terms. A cockatoo breeder, “who also admitted that there are welfare problems at bird sales”, referred to birds at the sale

as aviary birds and not pet birds. “There is legally no difference. The DEPI welfare codes clearly includes all captive/caged birds,” Ms Yves said. “I don’t think you will get a response from the market organisers - they are in damage control. Since they have breached all codes there is nothing positive they can say, the damage is done. “The VAC failed terribly and has lost

all credibility, which is why I am receiving bullying and rude emails.” Letters published in this month’s edition of Talking Birds magazine appear to confirm Ms Yves’s complaints about the expo. An anonymous letter writer from South Australia admits the bird boxes “could have been a bit bigger” but goes on to say small boxes are safer for birds and that the birds “may be distressed, but from other noises and movement, not because they are ill”. “Yes, there are some who break the rules, which is then used against others because one bad apple corrupts the rest,” the letter states. A second letter by J Milosevic (via email) says there is no doubt about Ms Yves’s good intentions and then refers to guidelines “which, unfortunately, were ignored in the case of the photos in her email”. “Guidelines and rules exist but are often ignored and I found it rather ironic that the sale where the women took the photos in her email had a large banner setting out the rules prominently displayed … what is the point of words on that banner when the rules were not enforced at that event? “If that had been done she would have had no ammunition which could be used to attack sales, demanding that they be banned. “Well, now it has happened and I hope that you keep track of what the state bodies do from now on about running sales properly, because it is obvious that at least one, the Victorian mob, has lost the plot.”

Upon liaising with St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital (SJGFRH) Speech Pathologists, Jeanette undertook the LSVT -LOUD (Lee Silverman Voice Therapy) Program to help improve her voice and communication.

Family and friends have all commented on the positive change, with her husband being especially happy. Jeanette reports that prior to doing LSVT her husband was becoming very frustrated and spent most of his time asking her to repeat herself. Now they communicate with ease.

Charges of rough play between Hastings and Somerville Compiled by Melissa McCullough OWING to the inclement weather, the meeting to establish a gun club at Somerville, to have been held on Tuesday evening last, was postponed. It will now be held on Monday evening next at the Hotel Somerville. *** AT the meeting of the Mornington shire council held on Thursday, tenders for construction of 3 1/2 miles of the Point Nepean road were considered, and that of Messrs Allnutt and Baker, £4255 2s, was accepted. The council’s day man, Mr Cexhell, was appointed clerk of works. *** THERE has been paid into the taxation office as duty in respect of the estate of John Cleeland, the sum of £91,034. This represents duty on £89,536 realty and £1498 personally left by deceased. *** AT the last meeting of the Frankston and Hastings shire council, Cr Keast moved, according to notice, that a pound be established at Somerville. Cr Macray seconded the motion proforma, but it was ultimately decided that Crs Keast and Murray be a committee to go into the matter, and report at next meeting. *** IT is announced by cable that Miss Dorothea Wollaston, third daughter of Sir Harry Wollason, formerly Comptroller-General of Customs in Australia, was married this week to M. Georges Ferrand, a Frenchman, engaged in commercial matters. The ceremony took place in the Church of Our Lady

of Victoria, at Kensington. Captain R. M. Collins and other Australians were among the guests. *** THE quarterly meeting of the Frankston Methodist Circuit was held at Langwarrin on the 1st inst. the minister (the Rev R. Jackson) presiding. A slight increase of membership was reported, and the finances were well maintained, a small credit balance showing. Regret was expressed at the enforced absence of the senior circuit steward, Mr A. E. Gault, through illness, and a resolution passed expressive of regret at his serious illness and thanks for past lengthy and untiring services. *** THE following resolution was also passed, and a copy ordered to be sent to the State Premier, “That this quarterly meetings responsibility is to express its opinion that the proposal to introduce into the State School curriculum the art of boxing amongst boys is a step in the wrong direction, and will have the effect of lowering the moral tone of the boys in particular and the community in general; and further, that the school curriculum is sufficiently full as at present constituted therefore we express the hope that the proposal be not further considered, nor any attempt made to carry it into effect.” A deal of business of a routine character was transacted, after which a splendid tea was partaken of, provided by the ladies of Langwarrin church, for which hearty thanks was given. The remainder of the evening was spent in a meeting of a devotional character, and was much enjoyed by those present. ***

DESPITE the somewhat inclement weather, the annual ball in connection with the lodge, held on Wednesday evening, was an unqualified success. There was a splendid attendance, the dancing spade being taxed to the utmost, while a good number of spectators monopolised the stage. Gabriel’s band provided splendid music, and Mr Lee Devlin, as M.C., kept things going

THE proposed meeting for the purpose of forming a gun club at Somerville has been postponed until Monday evening next, July 13th. A good attendance requested.

with a swing till the wee sma’ hours. During an interval a tasty supper was served, and in this direction also there was nothing left to be desired. Mr Moore, who had charge of this department, is to be complimented for the excellent manner in which the catering was done. The ball committee

(Secretary H. Simcock, P.G., A. Sage, and V.G., F. Benson) worked hard to ensure the success of the lodge’s annual function, and the result of their efforts was very apparent on Wednesday evening. All the arrangements for the successful carrying out of the ball were complete in every detail, there being nothing wanting that could add to the enjoyableness of the evening. Mr John Dyke rendered valuable assistance to the committee. A special word of praise is due to Mrs G. Shepherd, for the beautiful way in which she carried out the decorations of the hall. The scheme was carried out with paper carnations, the colors of the officers of the lodge predominating, and the effect was charming. The best thanks of the lodge are due this lady for her work in this direction. *** TO THE EDITOR Sir, will you kindly grant me space once more in your valuable paper to reply to the letter written by “One who likes Justice.” It is with some regret I write again, for fear I should create the idea that I look upon the Hastings football team as a rough lot as a whole. I have known some of them for many years, and I am pleased to meet and shake hands with them either on their ground or ours. It was the wholesale charge that “One who likes Justice” made against the fairness of the Somerville team in his first letter that 1 took exception to. If he has watched them play he must know that there are as fair footballers in the Somerville team as ever kicked a ball, and when he said the team played the man and not the ball and could not take

a beating-well, it was that “that rose the dander of McCarty.” He says the Somerville player who got hit did not get as much as he deserved. I certainly don’t know what he did, so I do not know what he deserves. I have heard several tales of what he did, but he says he did nothing unfair. The umpire reported him, I believe, for rough play. I only quoted the incident in my letter to show1st: That the umpire was no’ the fairnst ever on the Peninsula; and 2nd: That some of the Hastings players were not so gentle and downhearted as “One who like Justice” would like the general public to believe. He also says “ if the delegates look to the safety of other players they will disqualify the Somerville player for life. I think this is a point for us to discuss, as I think the gentlemen who give their time as delegates are quite capable of carrying on the business of the association without any advice from us. He says I must look through the sixteenth part of an eye, and shut the other one. Well, that is a very small portion and I think even that is on a par with his common sense, far be it for me or anyone else to say through these columns when and where he was heard ealling out to “rough them up,” and then has not got sense enough to let us know who he is. I do not intend to write again on this subject, as I have had my say and am content to let the matter drop. T. W. WHITE. Somerville, 5/7/14. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 11 July 1914

Should Greg stay or should he go? By Stuart McCullough IT’S just not true. No matter how much you claim that a rose by any other name is just as sweet, if they were called ‘Stinkweed’, nobody would buy them on Valentine’s Day. If Shakespeare had named his key teenage protagonists ‘Darren’ and ‘Pauline’ instead of the more ear pleasing ‘Romeo’ and ‘Juliet’, one of his greatest plays would have long been forgotten. Ditto ‘Rambo’ for ‘Roger’. It wouldn’t matter a jot that Sly Stallone had biceps like Christmas hams, no one’s going to believe that a guy called ‘Roger’ could be a one-man killing machine. It’s simply not credible. Right or wrong, names matter. For many people, The Clash hold a dear place in their musical heart. But for all their success, by 1983 they were falling apart. This resulted in the sacking in Mick Jones who, aside from playing guitar, wrote a lot of the songs. When it comes to bands, sacking your chief songwriter is rarely a recipe for enduring success. Mick’s role was then replaced by, not one, but two guitarists. Nick Sheppard was recruited from a band called The Cortinas. Nick, without doubt, is a strong rock and roll kind of name even if the name of his former band was weighed down by its links to affordable sedans. Greg White, of no-fixed previous band, was the second choice. But there was a problem. Bass player Paul Simonon point blank refused to be in a band with someone called ‘Greg’. It’s fair to say that the recruiting methods of bands would not be consid-

ered best practice. There are few companies that I know of who enforce a ‘no Greg’ policy. Indeed, it’s hard to imagine anyone missing out on a job simply because of his or her name. That said, I’d probably have second thoughts about hiring someone called ‘Adolf’ or ‘Darth Vader’. Although if you go to the share fridge and find a yoghurt labelled, ‘Property of Darth Vader’, chances are you’d think twice before swiping it. The Clash would probably have welcomed Darth Vader with open arms. Not that he was ever a contender. The Artist Formerly Known as ‘Greg’ obligingly changed his name to ‘Vince’. Whether other names like ‘Adolf’ or ‘Darth’ were even considered has never been revealed. It seems

a strange kind of compromise to force on anyone. But whilst calling yourself ‘Vince’ might get a gig in the world’s biggest punk band, it doesn’t help you write a decent song. Without Mick Jones, The Clash suffered terribly. Releasing an album entitled Cut the Crap – which, had the band heeded their own advice, would have seen them release two sides of complete silence – it was perhaps inevitable that ‘The Clash’ should break up. Greg/Vince then left the music industry to work as a mini-cab driver. Life is full of little ironies. He played guitar with a guy who was in a band called The Cortinas and ended up driving one. Luckily, both ‘Greg’ and ‘Vince’ are acceptable names within the mini-cab industry.

Some names get all the glory. For example, certain handles feature in songs all the time while others never even get a look in. ‘Cathy’ is a popular choice – Cathy’s Clown by The Everly Brothers and You Am I, not to mention Kathy’s Song by Simon and Garfunkel. Having a ‘Jane’ song in your repertoire seems almost mandatory - there’s Song For Jainie by Tim Buckley, Sweet Jane by the Velvet Underground and Janie’s Got a Gun by Aerosmith. The Clash who, while objecting vociferously to ‘Greg’, had no problem at all with ‘Janie Jones’. Other repeat offenders include Valerie (The Monkees and Amy Winehouse/Mark Ronson) and, in a variety of forms, Sue (Wake Up Little Susie by the Everly Brothers and Runaround Sue by Dion and the Belmonts).

The wind cries ‘Mary’ and it’s also a boat called the ‘Proud Mary’. Some names get all the attention. Even slightly unusual names can often be lauded in song. Jolene by Dolly Parton, Layla by Eric Clapton and Me and You and a Dog Named Boo by Lobo to name but a few. For crying out loud, even ‘Bo Diddley’ gets multiple mentions (most notably in the song Bo Diddley written by Bo Diddley and performed by – you guessed it – Bo Diddley). And while there may only be one song dedicated to the name ‘Eloise’ it’s an absolute cracker. Performed by Barry Ryan – a name that would have seem him barred from The Clash – the film clip features Ryan on horseback riding along a windswept beach. It’s a pity for everyone that more video clips don’t feature singers on horseback. To the best of my knowledge, there are no songs featuring the name ‘Stuart’ in the title. This is for the best. That’s despite the fact that my name neatly rhymes with ‘do it’, ‘threw it’ and, perhaps most handily of all, ‘knew it’. Under no circumstances would I have been allowed to join The Clash. As for the name ‘Greg’, it has finally been rehabilitated. In the 1990s, Melbourne band TISM put out a song called Greg! The Stop Sign based on a grisly TAC commercial that caused me to give up driving entirely until 1997. The Clash could not fail to be moved. My only hope is that it gave the Artist Formerly known as Greg some comfort. He deserves as much. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Stonecats put squeeze on Pythons PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt PINES was brought back to earth with a thud after Frankston YCW strangled them for three of the four quarters to record a 57-point victory 2.9 (21) to 11.12 (78). It was the only Peninsula League game played on Saturday. Mornington and Mt Eliza and Chelsea and Edithvale played on Sunday. The remaining two games will be played next Saturday to conclude yet another split round. We are all very well aware that the strength of the Stonecats is the defensive unit, led by Byron and Anthony Barry. On Saturday at Eric Bell Reserve, the visitors restricted the home side to five behinds in the first half. Pines kicked their only two goals in the third quarter, courtesy of Chris Guganovic and Guy Hendry. Frankston YCW excitement machine Kyle Hutchison kicked more goals himself than the opposition. He finished with three majors. Anthony Barry found himself off the leash and forward of centre on a number of occasions, finishing with two goals while Ben Tellis also kicked multiple goals. Ash Eames played his best game for the season and seems to be well

over his hamstring tear while Ryley Hodson and Casey Radford were outstanding. Joel Brunn has been superb for the Pythons this season and was again on Saturday, while Beau Hendry and Shaun White worked really hard. It was the first game the Pythons have lost since coach Steve Ryan announced he was resigning from the position. The Pythons are already actively looking for replacements and some interesting conversations have already taken place. It is believed that two of Pines’ opponents on Saturday are on their priority list – the Barry cousins, Byron and Anthony. The Barrys were close to leaving last season, offered big deals to go elsewhere and coach. Frankston YCW coach Scott Mathers is doing a wonderful job with the team and he has them playing inspired football. Whilst it is believed there were teething problems initially, the Stonecats are now purring. Mathers said it was always going to take time for the list to get used to new ways of doing things. “We haven’t changed things too much. It’s been a winning formula but we have just tinkered,” Mathers said. “We’ve given some players some

Melee a distasteful scene OFFICIALS from Red Hill and Hastings Football Clubs need to have a good look at themselves after an on-field incident at half time on Saturday. A couple of small fights broke out just before the half time siren, before every player got involved once the siren had gone. There were a couple of disturbing things to be seen during these seven minutes of high testosterone and emotion. The first was that the trainers should not have gone anywhere near the melee. However, there were some white shirts sticking their noses into a place where they shouldn’t have been. Then, as the players had broken away and were happy to head back to the change rooms, leading officials from each club started to hurl abuse at one another as they walked from the

new roles and responsibilities and they seem to be enjoying the change.” The general consensus is that the change of coach has brought some new life into the club. For the Stonecats, it’s certainly making a difference. For the opposition, it’s something they wouldn’t want to be hearing. Inaccuracy in front of goal cost Edithvale-Aspendale a big win against neighbour Chelsea. The Eagles were always going to win the clash, however, it should have made a lot more from its 34 scoring shots to 32. Edithvale’s Matt Clark was clearly the best player on the ground, really making a statement after 18 months away from the game. The Gulls, who were never in the contest, were best served by Fia Tootoo. The Gulls would have lost by more than 72 points if he wasn’t on the park. The final score was 14.20 (104) to 5.2 (32). In the other Sunday game, Mornington turned the tables on Mt Eliza, smashing the home side 9.7 (61) to 2.13 (25). The Doggies were beaten by the Redlegs in the corresponding game in round one, however, were well in control on Sunday at Emil Masden Reserve.

field, right in front of spectators. Thankfully, the situation didn’t escalate and they all shared a sausage roll and cold beverage during the half time break. However, club people in positions of power should lead by example and leave what happens on the field, on the field.

Murray a few weeks away

CRIB POINT will be without Aaron Murray for a few weeks yet. Murray has only been training for the past week with the Pies and won’t be match fit for at least another three weeks you would expect. Murray is coming off a knee reconstruction he suffered two seasons ago. It was his second knee reconstruction. Murray crossed from his home club Somerville in controversial circumstances two weeks ago, joining former Eagle teammate and favourite son, Glenn Boyd. ‘Azza’ has been keeping himself fit and strong, competing in triathlons. He will be a wonderful acquisition for the Pies, who lost key forward Toron Petrie a fortnight ago.

Goals galore as Hillmen blitz Hastings NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt A BLISTERING nine goal third quarter saw Red Hill continue on its merry way in Nepean League on Saturday against Hastings. The Hillmen trailed by 13 points at the major change after the home side dominated the quarter, booting six goals to five behinds. Taylor Stratton was giving his side plenty of drive from the half back line, Justin Berry and Josh Mulheron were working well through the middle and around the ground and Kane Stratton was given a little bit of licence in the back half. Steven Robb was also looking lively for the Blues and Dale Alanis and Steve Charalambous were getting their hands on the footy. It was a great, free flowing contest in the first half and it appeared the Blues had the upper hand. There was also plenty of feeling in the game also. A melee happened just before the half time siren and then flowed into the half time break. Officials from both sides, who should have known better, were also involved. Red Hill has been unrelenting in third quarters this season and kicking with the wind, many believed the pacy visitors could turn it on again. For the first 17 minutes, Hastings did a wonderful job restricting the Hillmen, despite them getting their noses in front.

However, what happened in the next 8-10 minutes was super impressive. Red Hill booted six unanswered goals in that space of time and blew Hastings off the park. Jarryd Douglas, who was clearly the difference between the sides, booted four goals in the third quarter and finished the afternoon with six. Why Hastings didn’t play a loose defender in front of him when he was clearly Red Hill’s only target was staggering. Robbie Clements, who was released from Frankston Dolphins, played onball and completely dominated. His class and ball use, despite the slippery conditions, were noticeable. Paul Wintle had the toughest task for the afternoon playing on Colin McVeigh. Wintle matched ‘Col’ in all aspects of the game and even showed the Blues’ star up a few times with his work at ground level. Benny Maguiness turned the clock back and dominated through the middle while the Dal Lago brothers, Marcus and Pete showed great leadership and composure. Jake Mitchell was also outstanding, his left foot hurting the Blues on many occasion throughout the match. Red Hill has certainly matured since losing to Rye in the last kick of the day. Hastings were always going to come back with the wind in the last quarter and they did, booting three goals in

three minutes to get within four goals. However, as the rain became heavier, so did the composure and lock down of Red Hill. The Hillmen got a number behind the footy, they slowed the tempo of the match and ensured that Hastings didn’t get their hand off the footy. The Hillmen robbed the Blues of the footy. When Douglas kicked his sixth of the match at the 20-minute mark, the game was done. Red Hill ran out comfortable 32-point winners in the end, 15.16 (106) to 10.14 (74). Whilst Hastings has plenty of injuries, Red Hill won without their leading goal kicker Jarryd Eames and running machines Luke Adams and Matt Hyden. Whilst there were some at the ground that believe Red Hill’s lack of height will cost them come finals time, their leg speed, pressure, workrate and ability to hit up a lead are first class. A 6.5’ ruckman who can fill a hole down back or rest forward would top the Hillmen off nicely. Rosebud moved inside the top five with a commanding 84-point win against Pearcedale at Olympic Park Oval. Inaccuracy in front of goal cost the Buds a three-figure winning margin, however, restricting the opposition to less than three goals did wonders for their percentage.

When percentage is going to be so important this season at the business end, Rosebud’s is very healthy at 136.74. Rye, who is in sixth place on the sale amount of wins (six), has a percentage of 103.88. Hastings is in seventh place, a further game back (five wins) but has a percentage of 122.21. Of those three clubs fighting it out for a place in the top five, Hastings has by far the easiest run home. Rosebud tall timber Ben Shultz and Ben Dwyer each booted three goals for the Buds while a further eight players contributed on the scoreboard. Tom Baker and Glenn Peterson continued their outstanding form. Chris Fortnam and Matty White were the best of the Panthers, while Trav Sauer worked hard. Frankston Bombers made it two wins on the trot, upsetting Rye by 15 points at Greg Beck Oval. In tight contest all afternoon, the Bombers led for the large majority of the afternoon to win 10.13 (73) to 8.10 (58). Jay Reynolds and Ryan Marks-Logan (three goals) were sensational for the winners while Ben Simmons and Sam Drake were also at their finest. Chris Gleeson worked tirelessly for the Demons up front and finished with four majors while Adam Kirkwood and Luke Semmel tried hard.

Crib Point had little trouble getting the four points against Devon Meadows, winning 16.18 (114) to 7.7 (49). The Pies started well with the win, kicking six goals to one in the first quarter and setting up the win. Glenn Boyd finished the day with four goals while Luke Herrington kicked three. Dean Warry and David Cook were outstanding. Alex Doria and Pat Boland were the best of Devon, while Steve McInnes was also very good with three goals. Leigh Poholke kicked six goals for Sorrento in their 12-goal win against Somerville. Just like the Magpies, the Sharks booted six goals to one in the opening term and set-up the 18.11 (119) to 6.10 (46) victory. Ben McCormack was again at his best for the Sharks in the back half, supported well by Chris Bagot, who is back at his best. Todd Hounsell also played arguably his best game for the Sorrento Football Club. Timmy Hirst and Jedd Sutton were the best of the Eagles. Anthony Bruhn booted eight goals and Cam Park five as Dromana booted 25.35 (185) to Tyabb’s 4.5 (29). The Tigers had 25 scoring shots in the first half and 23 scoring shots in the final quarter! Ash Souter and Rohan West were the best of the Yabbies.

Never in doubt: Red Hill got up over Hastings by 32 points after a nine-goal blitz in the third quarter got the Hillmen home and hosed in their Nepean League game Pictures: Andrew Hurst
