Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au WEEKEND train services will run all night on Friday and Saturday nights on the Frankston line from January next year as part of a public transport trial announced by the Labor state government. On Thursday last week Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allan announced a one-year trial, starting on New Year’s Eve, to gauge demand for weekend night-time services across Victoria’s rail network including the Frankston line. “A world-class city deserves 24-hour public transport. It’s good for our economy, for shift workers and for people who want to get home safe after a night out,” Ms Allan said. “People who live in the outer suburbs and regional areas shouldn’t have to miss out on Melbourne’s vibrant night life. This trial is about giving them a safe and affordable way to get home.” The last train to Frankston from Melbourne on Friday and Saturday evenings currently leaves Flinders St Station at 1.05am. Metro Trains will run services every hour all night from Flinders St Station to suburbs and regional areas as part of the trial, dubbed ‘Homesafe’, but Mornington Peninsula residents will miss out on overnight train transport at weekends with the Stony Point line not included in the 12-month trial.

L S A N N FI TIO C U ED

The Homesafe trial was a pre-election promised made by Premier Daniel Andrews before winning government. Liberal opposition treasury spokesman Michael O’Brien criticised a “budget blow-out of $33.6 million” for the weekend all-night public transport trial. The Andrews government confirmed last week that the trial will cost $83.6 million and not $50 million as previously advised before last year’s state election. Mr O’Brien also accused Labor of breaking its promise to have all train stations manned by protective services officers during the 12-month trial, with the Andrews government now advising PSOs will only be stationed at “premium stations” all night. “By cutting PSOs from all but premium stations during the trial, Daniel Andrews is undermining community safety and putting lives at risk,” Mr O’Brien said. The government’s announcement of the Homesafe trial stated: “Exact timetable details will be worked out with Public Transport Victoria and system operators” and “a revamped and improved night bus network” will provide services from train stations including Frankston. The state government did not respond to questions before deadline about when and where night-time buses would travel from Frankston train station.

MPs make ‘modest’ claims for travel Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au Still missing: Karen Rae was last seen in April. The man, above, believed to be the last to see Karen Rae.

Family’s missing person burden “NOT having an answer” is the hardest thing for loved ones of missing persons to bear. It’s a numbing feeling, and one which the family of missing Frankston North woman Karen Rae feel experience daily. The 48-year-old has not been seen or heard from since leaving her home on Wednesday 15 April. Mother Chris Boyle said Karen’s disappearance has had a huge effect on our family, especially her sons. “I regularly see her 10-year-old son and it is heartbreaking trying to explain to him what’s happened,” she said. “He’s very sad and misses his mother. He asks to see photos and talk about what she was like when she was his age. “It’s something that is never too far away from

my thoughts. I could be going about a normal day and just one thing reminds me of Karen and I’m immediately frozen. It’s not having an answer that is the hardest – has something happened to her? Did she decide to leave? Is she alone? “She’s my daughter. I love her. I just want to know that she’s ok.” Karen was last seen with an unknown man in a vehicle. National Missing Persons Week last week was coordinated by Australian Federal Police through the National Missing Persons Coordination Centre, along with support from state and territory police. Of the 9245 people reported missing in Victoria last year, more than half were accounted for within 24 hours. Just over 75 per cent were accounted for

within the first three days. By the end of last year, 98.7 percent of missing person’s cases had been closed. Police are keen to “dispel the myths” surrounding missing people, such as: You don’t have to wait 24 hours to report someone as missing, it is not a crime to go missing, people don’t “choose” to go missing, a missing person’s address is not released to the person who reported them missing, and, adults can be reported as missing. National Missing Persons Week last week aims to raise community awareness about missing persons and the impact that losing a loved one can have on their families and the wider community. Further information on NMPW can be found at missingpersons.gov.au

THE cost to the taxpayer of travel by the two federal MPs who represent Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula is reasonably modest compared with some of their colleagues. According to the latest available Department of Finance figures taxpayer-paid travelling expenses for the two MPs up to the end of December last year came to $249,249. The department says the costs relate to 1 July31 December 2014 and an unspecified time before 1 July 2014. Neither Mr Billson or Mr Hunt rated in the top 10 of MPs with the highest travel expenses. The bill for Dunkley MP Bruce Billson, who is also Minister for Small Business, was $109,198 while in the neighbouring electorate of Flinders, Environment Minister Greg Hunt’s travel costs were $140,051. Mr Billson took one ministerial overseas trip at a cost of $16,390. He also claimed $7849 (domestic flights and Commonwealth car) for his family. Mr Billson received a travelling allowance of $19,263 while Mr Hunt’s allowance came in at $20,503. Mr Hunt went overseas twice in reported period at a cost of $41,952. His family travel expenses came to $5267. Mr Hunt’s single biggest flight was a charter to Moranbah, in central Queensland. That trip on 10 June 2014 took him over the site of the contentious $16 billion Carmichael open cut coal mining project. The proposal by the Indian company Adani Mining hit the headlines last week when govern-

ment approval for the mine was set aside by the High Court after being presented with evidence of a bungle within Mr Hunt’s department which meant there were no provisions to protect the endangered yakka skink and ornamental snake. When announcing approval of the mine in the month following his visit Mr Hunt stressed the remoteness of the area – “it is the deep outback; it is a sparsely vegetated area” – and that the mine would be subject to “some very, very strict conditions”. The falling price of coal and last week’s announcement by the Commonwealth bank of its withdrawal as Adani’s advisor may mean that the project’s “lifetime resource value of at least $300 billion” may stay in the ground. Mr Hunt’s overseas trips were to Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia and Germany ($16,780) to attend the 65th meeting of the International Whaling Commission and “to conduct a series of highlevel meetings”; and, the Philippines, Malaysia and Vietnam ($25,172) “to conduct a series of high-level discussions regarding the Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area”. Mr Hunt’s other travel costs included $35,253 for scheduled domestic flights (mainly between Canberra and Melbourne or Sydney) and $37, 074 for cars ($6551 privately registered and $29, 612 Commonwealth cars). He also received a travelling allowance of $20,503. Mr Billson went to Singapore and China ($16,390) to attend an APEC Small and Medium Enterprise ministerial meeting “and conduct a series of other high-level meetings”. His other travelling costs included $39,205 for scheduled domestic flights (to most states but mainly to Canberra and Sydney) and $21,593 for cars ($9166 privately registered and $14,725 Commonwealth cars).

‘Tour de France’ in memory of Jayden Planned media policy

built on shaky grounds

IN January last year Lindsay Davies lost his son Jayden to bone cancer (osteosarcoma) when he was 17. Jayden was a talented sportsman, and loved footy, cricket and being with his mates, he said. Inspired by Jayden’s “strength, guts and dignity”, Mr Davies is embarking on the Ride to Conquer Cancer for a second year. “It is an honour to ride in Jayden’s team: ‘Hope Is stronger Than Fate’, he said. Last year the group raised $39,439 and, this year’s 14-rider team hopes to exceed $50,000. “It is a huge challenge personally, however, the greater challenge is creating awareness and raising vital funds for cancer research for The Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre,” Mr Davies said. On Saturday 5 September the team will hold a Tour de France night, with live and silent auctions of road and mountain bikes, bike gear, AFL, horse racing sporting memorabilia and beauty products. “Two great items we have secured are a framed signed Cadel Evans jersey and a Kubota ride on mower valued at $7000,” he said. “One of our initiatives is a $500 sponsorship in which a company, or organisation, is recognised on the team’s custom riding jerseys to be worn over the two-day event, as well as an invitation to promote their business on the night.” Jayden Davies charity football and cricket games will be played in coming weeks creating further exposure for sponsors. Every dollar raised will help another person, another family, Mr Davies said. For more details see Conquer Cancer Tour de France Night on Facebook To book for the event see trybooking.com/ ICOY or call Lindsay Davies on 0400 331 743.

Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au CLAIMS of “several instances of incorrect, unverified or potentially damaging information being provided to the media” by Frankston councillors have been unable to be substantiated. The allegation was made in a draft amended media policy tabled at April’s public council meeting ordering all councillors to inform the mayor Sandra Mayer or CEO Dennis Hovenden “of any comments that they have made or are intending to make to the media” (‘Councillors’ free speech threatened’, The Times 18/5/15). Councillors deferred debate on the proposed amended media policy. The CEO and mayor refused to disclose examples of incorrect information or retractions when asked by The Times. A response now provided by council under freedom of information laws fails to satisfactorily explain why the council officer who wrote the amended draft media policy made reference to incorrect information provided to the media by councillors. The council officer is no longer employed by council and no documentation is available to substantiate the claims made in the draft policy. Remaining media and communications department staff were instead asked by council’s FOI officer, after

Sports of all sorts: Jayden Davies loved his footy and cricket and his memory lived on when classmate Leigh Ryan, Lindsay Davis, centre, and son-in-law Shannon White took part in last year’s Ride to Conquer Cancer ride.

The Times lodged its FOI request, for examples of “somewhat inaccurate information” provided to the media which were not documented since “each of these occasions occurred via verbal discussions between staff”. Staff recalled three examples of “somewhat inaccurate information” being clarified, but again these examples were only able to be provided after the FOI request was lodged, and were not available to the council officer writing the draft media report, since clarifications were “provided verbally to the relevant journalist and not documented”. An internal search of council documents found no mention of “media retractions”, “media corrections” or “media release amendments”. In providing the FOI response, council’s FOI officer stated: “It is my understanding that the intention of the draft media policy was not to prevent councillors expressing their views, but rather to ensure that information provided by staff and councillors is accurate.” The Times understands councillors protested when a proposal to ban them from talking to the media without the mayor or CEO’s permission was floated while the amended media policy was being drafted. Councillors are elected representatives of the community, not employees of council, and as such should be able to express opinions without being gagged by council.

Lunches pack ‘inspirational’ message Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THERE is such a thing as a free lunch for disadvantaged pupils at Mahogany Rise Primary School in Frankston North thanks to dedicated volunteers who make sandwiches for children who arrive at school without food for lunch. The Frankston North school is one of 16 schools throughout Victoria to benefit from volunteer-run service called Eat Up founded by Lyndon Galea three years ago. The 28-year-old social entrepreneur had the idea to provide free lunches for pupils in need when he read about some children at schools in his hometown of Shepparton going without lunch. “That just came as a complete shock. I had no idea that was an issue locally,” Mr Galea said. Before establishing Eat Up, a charity connecting existing groups such as TAFE students and Foodbanks to provide the school lunches, Mr Galea set up a kitchen operation to feed needy kids in Shepparton. “Initially, it was just me and some family and mates making some sandwiches in our kitchen but as we worked with schools we found this was a concern for many families.” Mr Gallea works part-time as a delivery driver for perishable food rescue organisation OzHarvest and it didn’t take long for OzHarvest to jump on board the Eat Up initiative. “I just thought it was so inspirational I thought I had to be part of it so we collaborated on it,” OzHarvest project officer Karen Spindel said.

A visit to Cornish College in Bangholme where Grade 6 pupils prepared lunches for other schools’ children saw Ms Spindel expand the Eat Up message. “I thought ‘wouldn’t it be nice if the kids wrote a message on it?’. So they wrote messages and drew pictures on the bags.” Mr Galea said the reaction from lunch recipients and teachers to the “inspirational messages” on the lunch bags “was really powerful” and led to Eat Up scribbling messages of support on all lunch bags dished out. Mahogany Rise Primary assistant principal Daniel Riley said the sandwiches, delivered weekly and frozen for future use, “ease the pressure” on staff who had previously made school lunches for some children at the school. “This is a highly disadvantaged area and we do have a quite a number of children who sometimes come to school without breakfast or lunch and we do have an emergency food pantry for families in crisis but the Eat Up lunches is a huge thing,” he said. Mr Riley reckons about five children per day on average at the school tuck into an Eat Up provided sandwich. “We do keep a record of who gets what because if there’s a pattern there we’ll intervene with the family and find out’s happening and find out if they need a bit of extra support. Generally it’s one offs here and there.” The Sheep Station Bakehouse in Mt Eliza has jumped onboard to help, providing bread and rolls each week to be passed on as food packages to disadvantaged families whose children attend Mahogany Rise Primary.

Eat Up plans to expand the free school lunches offer to where it is most needed across the state. Mr Galea said Eat Up is speaking to AFL clubs and A League clubs “to sign the odd bag” or contribute some work to help us out “to make the bag special as well”. Search for ‘Eat Up Australia’ on Facebook or see eatup.org.au for further details and to nominate a school for the free school lunches project.

Axe owner sought after robbery arrests Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Embona Armed Robbery Squad detectives are seeking public help in finding the rightful owner of an axe allegedly used in violent robberies at two peninsula 7-Eleven service stations late last month. They believe the axe was stolen in a previous aggravated burglary and used to commit other offences. Finding its owner could help them in their inquiries, they say. The axe and a handgun were allegedly wielded by two balaclava-clad offenders arrested and charged with armed robbery and car theft last week over the raids which terrorised lone store attendants in the early hours of Wednesday 29 July. In the first robbery, at 3.07am, the axe wielder is shown on CCTV footage jumping onto the counter and climbing through security wire, while the gunman stands in the customer area, pointing his gun at the attendant as well as a customer, crouching on the floor between shelving and a freezer. The bandits ransacked cupboards and filled up a bin with cigarettes and cash from the till. The axeman is then seen smashing a glass door between the customer area and the counter and forcing the attendant to lie on the floor of the customer area. The gunman also appears to threaten the customer, still crouching on the floor. The same offenders are also

charged with the 3.30am armed robbery at the 7-Eleven service station, Point Nepean Rd, Dromana. In the similar raid, the lone male store attendant was confronted by three offenders, one with a handgun and the other with an axe. Two offenders again went straight to the counter and climbed through security wire. With the gun pointed at his head the attendant was pushed into the staff area and forced to open the till.

The offender with the axe smashed a window near the till and stole an undisclosed amount of cash. The other two offenders used a bin to carry off their haul. The one with the axe – described by police as the “most volatile and violent” of the three – smashed a computer monitor in the manager’s office, struck the wall and again hit the window. They said the offender with the firearm appeared “more in control”

throughout both incidents. Detective Sergeant Alistair Hanson, of Frankston CIU, said six offenders – out of seven suspects – had been arrested over the robberies and each charged with two counts of armed robbery and two of car theft. They include: A 19-year-old Dandenong man who was also charged with aggravated burglary and car theft in Mt Eliza on Monday, as well as a number of aggravated burglaries, vandalism, and car thefts in Burwood, Brighton and Cheltenham. He faced Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Tuesday and was remanded to reappear on 23 October. He, and a 15-year-old Keysborough boy who was also charged with car theft and bailed to appear at Dandenong Children’s Court next month, both face 28 counts of criminal damage relating to the smashing of 20 car windows at Cheltenham late July causing $25,000 damage. The pair is alleged to have used golf clubs and a hammer to damage the cars parked in neighbouring streets during the 4-5am vandalism spree, described by a Kingston detective as “mindless vandalism”. A 20-year-old Dandenong man who was remanded in custody to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court in October; A 17-year-old Maidstone youth who was also charged over four armed robberies at Hawthorn, Alphington and Ascot Vale, and a carjacking at Dandenong. He appeared at Melbourne Children’s Court on Tuesday

and was remanded to reappear later this month. An 18-year-old Mulgrave man who was remanded in custody to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court in October. A 17-year-old youth, of no fixed address, who was remanded in custody to appear at Melbourne Children’s Court later this month. The six arrests form part of a bigger picture, with up to 25 offenders nabbed over a spate of aggravated burglaries, vandalism, thefts from and of cars, deceptions, petrol drive offs and armed robberies across Melbourne’s southern suburbs in the past few weeks. “They knew each other and were acting together; there was definitely a level of planning and organisation,” Detective Hanson said. The five Frankston Embona detectives are chuffed with their efforts to crack the 7-Eleven armed robberies so quickly. “Yes, we are pleased, but we have received lots of public support,” he said. “People sometimes become complacent about crime but, when it’s violent and in their patch, they say, “Enough is enough” and get involved. That’s been a great help to us.” Detective Hanson said the fact that the same offenders allegedly committed crimes in Kingston, Boroondara and Casey, as well as on the peninsula, also served to unite detectives from these disricts in their efforts to catch the offenders. “It was a very good joint effort by neighbouring CIUs,” he said.

Top End ties banish on-field boos By David Quinn* THIS month marks 40 years since Prime Minister Gough Whitlam ran soil through the hands of Vincent Lingiari stating: “I want to acknowledge that we Australians still have much to do to redress the injustice and oppression that has for so long been the lot of Black Australians”. Whitlam then added: “This land will be the possession of you and your children forever.” In reply, with trust implicit in Whitlam’s pledge, the softly-spoken elder decreed: “Now we can all be mates”. It is now August 2015 and the question is raised - are we mates? Have we fulfilled the promise of optimism and hope that were so evident in Vincent Lingiari’s words? There are two groups of primary school-aged children, separated by four thousand kilometres of red dust and eucalypts, who definitely are mates. They are children who have learned to respect each other’s upbringing and outlook on life. Who appreciate that it is OK to be different and that it is important to be nonjudgemental. Who have an optimistic sense for the future and would want what is best for each other. These children call themselves Wugubank. One group belongs to Penbank, an independent primary school at Moorooduc. This school, like many others, espouses tolerance, kindness and an appreciation of the natural environment. It is a school where children are challenged in their thinking to be inclusive of all, and to be grateful for the beautiful country in which they are privileged to live. People are valued, no matter what their nationality, race or colour. But none more so than their friends in the second group, who just happen to be first Australians from the Wugularr School in the Northern Territory. Some time ago, Penbank’s head of campus envisioned a more authentic educative approach to our children’s learning and understanding of indigenous culture. A conversation began with leaders from the Wugularr community in western Arnhem Land, considered to be remote, 90 minutes south-east of Katherine. From this conversation an idea was born to bring a group of indigenous kids to the Mornington Peninsula for a week. Although this initial trip brought significant challenges, not the least being the cold southern weather, it was obvious that the experiences shared between the children were inspirational. A return visit by the Penbank children to the Top End was a “non-

negotiable”; it had to be undertaken. The school has now completed six such visits. Each sojourn grows in stature and enjoyment. The two communities, thousands of kilometres apart, openly offer their hearts and homes to the visitors from afar. Shared experiences have led to strong bonds of friendship, for children and adults. It is a cherished, trusting relationship. Over the past fortnight, 44 of Penbank’s years 5 and 6 pupils, along with adult helpers, engaged in the routines and delights of community life in the Northern Territory. Corroborees were danced and there was group singing at the community’s Walking With Spirits music festival, swimming and fishing in the Waterhouse River. Elders explained rock art and dreamtime stories associated with various animals and artefacts, there was a cruise on the Katherine River at Nitmiluk which helped explain the importance of the landscape to the Jawoyn people. When it came time to say “boh, boh” (farewell) the Penbank pupils reflected on what they had experienced and learned. Apart from the obvious fun that was had, deeper emotions of understanding and sadness emerged. We saw first-hand how these people are so connected to their land, their country. It is pivotal to their feeling of self-worth, their identity. We witnessed the strength of family ties, particularly at corroboree where we

saw inter-generational participation. Our children said they had learned the importance of “sharing, not having”. We obtained a glimpse of the very deep understanding that our first Australians have of the unfolding of the seasons and the signs of life and growth that accompany each change. We learned how to look for and find bush tucker, how to wash ourselves with bush soap and how to stuff our pillows with bush cotton! We were made acutely aware how crucial it is to listen to your elders and heed their advice. Indigenous culture decrees that it is not about “me and my”, it is about “we and us”. But most of all we learned that these children are our friends, and always will be. Children thirst for knowledge. They also delight in imaginative creativity. From our indigenous friends we learn how these aspects are combined in the power, wonder and magic of storytelling. Their law tells them the right way to live. It teaches them discipline, how to live peacefully and how to care for the land. If the land is looked after properly, the land will feed and protect them. How to live in harmony. We now wish to find out more of this amazing culture. Who are the indigenous heroes? What tales of exploration and endeavour can be told from past millennia. How is it that rock art drawings in Arnhem Land accurately depict the thylacine (Tasmanian tiger)? Our children loved the

open expression of creativity through dance, movement and song. We were enthralled with the pure beauty of the country. Most of all, we were charmed by the warmth so obviously displayed in the gatherings of the people. As educators involved in such a positive, potentially life-changing program for young people, what to make of the furore involving Adam Goodes on our return to Melbourne? Instinctively, a first response is that it just not fair, or kind, to treat any person in such a manner. If the core of the issue is related to deep-seated, subconscious feelings of racism, then the saddening reality is that we have a major problem. It falls to our leaders, of all pursuits, to engage in re-imagining how we view indigenous culture; what do we truly know of it and what appreciation do we have. No doubt, education will be a key in transforming viewpoints and understandings. But it must be informed with, and by, indigenous voices. By example, our first Australians belong to the oldest, living continuous culture on Earth. In a time when the United States’ President Obama is declaring that climate change is the greatest challenge that our planet faces, it is worth noting that our first peoples have lived through, and survived, catastrophic climate change in the past 10,000 years. Would it not be ironic if we eventually turned to our indigenous elders to seek advice as to how to survive the next catastrophe?

There is a view that we are what we teach our children. If that is the case, let’s hope that the children are right in their thinking – that they have a positive mindset for the future and are informed, non-judgemental and appreciative of the wonder of the world that surrounds them. In our minds, indigenous culture is a life force which should be celebrated, praised and looked upon with immense pride. There is so much that we can learn from our friends. At Penbank we look upon our experiences with the Wugubank partnership as a pebble being dropped into the calm waters of a pond. The ripple effect of that pebble being dropped is resonating through our whole school community. Our children are inspiring their immediate and extended families to learn more of their friends’ way of life; to appreciate and embrace a civilisation like no other. In our endeavours we are not trying to change the world. We see our efforts as but one small action in the process that we hope will lead to authentic reconciliation. Above all, hopefully with Vincent Lingiari’s blessings, we are mates and will continue to be so. We can say, with surety, that our children at Penbank would never boo an indigenous Australian.

Tree Day grows roots at school PUPILS from Frankston Heights Primary School recently celebrated Schools Tree Day, part of National Tree Day on Friday 24 July, by planting grasses and shrubs at nearby Wallace Reserve. Principal Cheryl Clark said the school considers learning about the environment to be an important aspect of students’ education. “Our students learn about environment and sustainability practices through our school’s science program,” she said. “Our school is very community minded and has established strong links with Frankston Council’s Environmental Network and the Friends of Wallace Reserve.” Junior and middle school pu-

pils spent some of the day planting grasses and shrubs at Wallace Reserve, under the guidance of the Friends of Wallace Reserve and Frankston council rangers, while the seniors concentrated on planting native grasses and plants in the school grounds. Many parents were also on hand to help. Friends of Wallace Reserve secretary David Cross said the pupils enjoyed their excursion through the reserve to the planting site. “After a look at the progress of their previous years’ planting, they got stuck into planting and mulching of the specially prepare area.” Frankston Heights Primary School has made Schools Tree Day an annual event at Wallace Reserve since

2006 and have planted more than 3,000 plants. The Friends of Wallace Reserve also supervise work at the reserve with the 3rd Frankston Girl Guides and intellectually disabled adults from Connecting Skills Australia have been keen attendees to the monthly mid-week working bees. “We see ourselves as a truly community-oriented organisation, where everyone has the opportunity to ensure the protection of our environment,” Friends Group president Tony Gustus said.

Mr Hovenden goes to Washington FRANKSTON Council CEO Dennis Hovenden is set to represent Frankston on the international stage. Mr Hovenden will head to Seattle, Washington in the US in late September to attend the International City/County Management Association’s (ICMA) next board meeting having been elected as vice president of the organisation that “advances professional local government worldwide”. The high-flying chief executive said it is “a great honour” to represent Frankston and Australia in a global capacity. “I am very proud to showcase our region a destination for tourism and in-

vestment, and to learn from other local government authorities,” Mr Hovenden said in a statement. The ICMA covers all travel expenses for its board members and council advised The Times that Mr Hovenden will use annual leave to dedicate time to his role as ICMA vice president. He plans to push Frankston and Australia as business and tourism destinations as part of his vice president role. The Frankston Council CEO, the only Southern Hemisphere board member, will serve as one of 21 board members, made up of 18 representatives from the United States and three international members.

Trafficking charge after drugs find POLICE executing a drugs warrant on a house in Fingal Dr, Karingal, on Monday (3 August) unearthed more than they expected. Detective Sergeant Paul Busuttil, of Frankston CIU, said police searching the room of a 33-year-old man allegedly found a 15-litre container of the drug GHB and a “large quantity” of ice. The man was arrested and charged with trafficking commercial quantities of methamphetamines and GHB. He was then remanded to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court for a committal hearing in September. A 32 year old Frankston man at the house was charged with possessing small quantities of cannabis and the drug ice. He was later bailed to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court at a later date. Police also seized two stolen motor bikes and a stolen caravan at the property. “The raids will have a disruptive impact on the supply of ice and GHB on the community. It was a significant seizure,” Detective Sergeant Busuttil said.

Easy does it: Mt Eliza Lion Dennis Cleary presents Mt Eliza pupils with their First Tear Mediation vests.

Emma gets gold Duke MT ELIZA Lions Club members have praised Mt Eliza’s Emma Wiggins for completing her gold Duke of Edinburgh Award. The Toorak College student represented them in the national finals of the Lions Youth of the Year quest. “This is the highest level of the award which is outstanding and we congratulate Emma on her achievement,” treasurer Ian Davey said. “We are even more pleased to be able to recommend Emma for the ADF Long Tan Youth Leadership and Teamwork Award. We hope she is successful.” This leadership and teamwork award recognises youth who are able to maintain top school marks while demonstrating leadership and teamwork in their school life and community. It was named after a battle between Viet Cong soldiers and a vastly outnumbered Australian force dur-

ing the Vietnam conflict. Emma – who also won the public speaking section of the Youth of the Year quest – was selected as part of the Lions International’s “Engaging Our Youth” policy as it heads towards it centenary celebrations in 2017. In another Lions’ youth engagement last week, Mt Eliza charter member Dennis Cleary presented a cheque to pay for vests and badges worn by Mt Eliza Primary School’s grade 6 First Tear Mediators when handling playground friendship issues at their school. “This is a highly worthwhile activity for these young students, giving them the opportunity for personal growth and responsibility”, Mr Cleary said. “The Lions club will continue to support this project in years to come.”

IT’S

See an expert, avoid tax scams THE Australian Taxation Office has warned investors not to be fooled by legitimate-looking tax avoidance schemes. ATO deputy commissioner Tim Dyce said illegal schemes are usually designed to appear legitimate, even to experienced investors, but there are telltale signs you can look out for. “Tax avoidance schemes aren’t always the ‘too good to be true’ types. They can be more sophisticated than many people realise,” Mr Dyce said. In particular, Mr Dyce advised people to watch out for complex structures and unusual financing arrangements such as round robin financing and non-recourse loans. “If the main purpose of the arrangement is to reduce your assessable income by claiming deductions you are not entitled to, without any real investment, it is likely to be a scheme.” In one case, promoters offered a ‘mortgage management plan’ promising to assist investors in repaying their home loan sooner. The scheme involved using the equity in their home to get additional loans for the purpose of claiming investment deductions equivalent to home loan interest payments. It’s not just the design of the arrangement you have to look out for, but also what the promoter is promising and asking from you in return. “We often see promoters of illegal

arrangements guaranteeing that their product is ‘no risk’. They’ll also encourage you to keep the arrangement a secret or discourage you from seeking independent advice,” Mr Dyce said. The ATO encourages anyone unsure about a tax investment they have been offered to seek a second opinion from an independent and trusted tax professional. “At the end of the day, when it all goes wrong, it will be you and not just the promoter, who will have to face the penalties.” Be wary of promoters that:  Offer zero-risk guarantees for their product.  Refer you to a particular adviser or expert. They may seek to persuade you by claiming the adviser has specific knowledge about the arrangement and the promised tax benefits.  Ask you to maintain secrecy to protect the arrangement from rival firms.  Discourage you from obtaining independent advice.  Do not have a product disclosure statement or prospectus for the product. Watch the ATO’s ‘Get a second opinion’ YouTube video for more details at www.ato.gov. au/general/tax-planning/second-opinion For more information about how to get out of a scheme and report illegal arrangements and promoters see www.ato.gov.au/general/taxplanning

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Patriotic fund reaches record total Compiled by Melissa Walsh THE seventh list of contributions to the Frankston Patriotic Fund is published in another column. It has now reached the respectable total of £268 7s. This amount is quite independent and apart from the very considerable contributions of money, material, and work afforded to the Australian Red Cross Society. The list we publish this week includes a handsome second contribution of £19 4s 3d from the Frankston Ladies’ Collecting Committee. Of this sum £10 was realized by a raffle of a quilt by the Frankston storekeepers. *** IT will be seen from an advertisement in another column that a 4th presentation will be made, on Monday, August 23rd, at the Mechanics’ Institute, Frankston, to volunteers for the front, drawn from Frankston and the immediate district. We understand that no less than 27 names of recently enlisted volunteers have already been recorded as entitled to presentations. As the sum in the hands of the Treasurer and the proceeds of the entertainment will not meet the necessary expenses, donations to defray the extra expenditure will be most thankfully received by the Hon. Sec. (Dr Plowman). He also desires that friends of any recently enrolled recruits will send to him the names of the latter, together with their exact company addresses. If this is done, his work will be much facilitated.

*** THE contest for the premiership of the Peninsula Football Association was advanced another stage on Saturday at Frankston, when teams representing the Guards and Hastings met in the final, and as in the semi-finals, another keenly contested game resulted, the Guards winning by the narrow margin of one point. A number of spectators, together with the Hastings players, declared that the match was a draw as in the concluding quarter a point was awarded to the Guards about which there was considerable discussion. There was a good deal of crowded play about the Guards goal towards the close of the game, and the ball either went out bounds close to the behind post or it went between the behind and goal post. The boundary umpire waved his flag, it is asserted, signifying that the ball went out of bounds, and at the same time the goal umpire waved one flag indicating that a behind had been scored by the Guards, who by getting the benefit of the particular point won the match. The Guards as usual put a representative team on the field, while Hastings experienced some difficulty in mustering the full complement, and it was not until the last quarter started that their eighteenth man took the field. Hastings have been premiers of the Peninsula Association for many years past, and have any number of premiership pennants to their credit, but this year they have not been as strong as in

past seasons. They were just getting their team together towards the close and gave a good account of themselves against their opponents in the last two matches. Owing to a number of the Hastings players having recently enlisted the team was very short-handed on Saturday, and little hope was held out of securing a win over the Guards. However they put up a great game and gave the soldiers no end of trouble to accomplish a victory. Boyle had charge of the teams, and on play commencing the Guards soon established a lead by registering a couple of goals. Hastings were on the forward line and did not give a very good account of themselves in the opening term; in which the guards scored 3 2 to Hastings 0 3, the latter playing well together, and helped considerably by good play from Carmichael, Francis, Floyd Bros, Kimberly, Emery, and others put their opponents on their mettle in the second and third quarters and the Guards found they were not going to have such an easy task as appeared in the opening term, and on commencing the last quarter the scores were- Guards 5 4; Hastings 4 8; Another goal to Hastings put them in the lead, but the Guards finishing strongly gradually overhauled the leaders, and a few minor points in succession gave them the advantage by one, the final result being: Guards 5 goals 9 behinds, Hastings 5 goals 8 behinds. A protest was entered by Hastings on the ground that the Guards’ team

included 3 ineligible players and also that a behind was claimed that was given an ‘out of bounds’ by the boundary umpire. The Association met on Thursday evening, and after hearing the evidence it was decided unanimously that Hastings had failed to establish a case, and awarded the match to the Guards. *** THE first installment of finished articles has been despatched this week to the Central Red Cross Depot. The list of articles is as follows:—43 shirts, 7 undershirts, 10 pyjama suits, 3 pyjama pants, 50 pairs socks, 50 pillow cases, 70 towels, 20 handkerchiefs, 32 face washers, 12 ditty bags, 12 milk jug covers, 5 mufflers, 2 pairs mufflers, 2 pairs cuffs, 3 pairs slippers, and a woollen helmet. A great deal of work is still out, and the committee would be glad to receive it as soon as possible, in order to send another installment next week. *** IN our advertising columns will be found notice of the Somerville Fancy Fair in aid of the Australian Wounded Fund. The Fair will be officially opened by the Hon J. E. Mackey M.L.A. at 3 o’clock on the afternoon of Friday, Aug 20th. Sir Wm Irvine and Mr A. Downward Ms. L A. have also been asked to speak at the opening, but as these gentlemen are very busy over war matters the Club cannot say definitely that they will be there. Residents of Somerville and district are cordially invited to the opening

ceremony. Admission free to all each afternoon. The Fair is a novelty in the district as regards goods for sale and the costumes of the Allies and Dominions, as well as Red Cross nurses, which will be worn by stall holders should prove one of the many attractions. The Fair will be open on Aug 20th and 21st afternoon and evening. A special programme has been arranged for a promenade concert each evening for which the charge of a shilling will be made. Change of programme each evening. *** PERMISSION has been granted to the Rev A. J. Thomson, Somerville to hold religious services in connection with the Church of England at the school here. *** A young married couple (Mr and Mrs Sinclair) lately out from Cheshire England have purchased Mr Blicks property here. It is Mr Blicks intention to reside at Sale, Gippsland. *** A meeting of parents is announced to take place at the school on the evening of Aug. 17th for the purpose of nominating persons to fill vacancies on the committee. Mr C. W. Murray who has acted on the committee for the last six years and during the last four has filled the duties of correspondent very successfully and diligently is leaving the district shortly.

A Grain of Salt SOME things come and others go, in due course. Bronwyn Bishop obviously and James Hird seemingly forever. Then there’s the Adam Goodes booing, raising it all to a new level. You’re either with him or against him and God help you if you’re against in any shape or form, thus automatically achieving racist status. Waleed Aly, Caroline Wilson, Gerard Wakeley, Martin Flanagan and others roving the castle grounds, looking to put down any stray dogs with their high-powered words. Like the cost of cigarettes (and James Hird) it will not stop there; contrary thoughts whispered only down darkened laneways. I restrict my booing to dirty footballers and anti-Collingwood umpires in the comfort of my home. Millionaire Adam Goodes is not a dirty footballer. His comments as Australian of the Year were reasonable, but apparently caused a mild stir with the 40,000 years stuff. His highlighting of the 13-year-old girl added momentum, helped considerably by the media. Apparently the girl called him “an ape”, a common quip against opposition players with or without beards but ignored by the media in the never ending search for an angle, racism, and not helped by Adam’s concurrence. His eventual obvious reluctant acceptance of Eddie McGuire’s apology for a stupid slip of the tongue was further highlighted by the media to the point where some rank and file football followers thought (to use a typical Aussie phrase) he was “up himself”. The fires well fanned, with the insignificant supposed staging for a free kick (done

*** We move gladly into August and the afterglow of Billy Boy’s socking it to them at the ALP conference. Was his political switch to adopt the Liberal’s “turn back the boats” common sense, a policy ignoring social and ethical responsibility as it did under Rudd and Gillard? Billy explained he could not take a policy to the next election that could contribute to drownings at sea? Leaving aside the probability if they cannot come here they will take bigger risks heading for other countries, the harsh reality is the majority of voters do not want those sad boat people, so not to take this action would result in near certain electoral defeat. Ugly, calculating, even heartless, but to be a Prime Minister surely the key word is pragmatic. Never forgetting the Royal Commission into Trade Union Governance still has a trick or two up its blessed biased sleeves to summon Billy back sometime mid-2016. One or two more uplifting policies and in with a chance. Well, maybe half a chance. *** There’s “compelling research” living alone can be pretty “great” for you. “I think the biggest perk of living alone is the space and freedom to get to know who you really are”.

*** The Sunday Age tells of new sleep pods in the big city, a 20 to 40 minute nap daytimes for stressed business types. A quote from a sleep expert (whatever that is?): “a brief nap can improve your alertness”. Fair enough, but the writer added “There is growing evidence that a lack of sleep has a role in cardiovascular disease, diabetes, obesity and cancer”. Growing evidence? Nonsense ad infinitum. *** What became of the “coast and climate learning centre idea? Ditto the “one-stop shops” for aged care services allowing people to seamlessly move from basic help at home to residential aged care services, and after hours GP services? Ditto Jesuit priest Frank Brennan’s appointment to examine our need for a Bill of Rights? Gone with the wind? ***

By Cliff Ellen Big business gives money to Billy Shorten’s union. Big business gives the Labor Party money, and the Liberal Party money. Sometimes big business will give both parties money; a bit each way so to speak, the overriding obvious reason being “in their interest”. So why Leigh Sales should spend 15 minutes questioning Billy Boy as to what big business expected in return for their money is beyond me. The question is best directed to the givers? *** I wish?

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The sorry tale of an arty latte By Stuart McCullough THERE’S no doubt that if Michelangelo were alive today, he wouldn’t be flushing his time down the artistic lavatory by perching on a rickety ladder that would give the folks at WorkCover a conniption and splashing a tub of Taubman’s satin gloss on the roof of the Sistine Chapel. No way. If Michelangelo were alive now he’d be a barista. Worse still, he’d be dressed head to toe in black, have his hair in a man bun with a pencil wedged as tightly as William Tell’s arrow in the apple and would be expressing himself through coffee foam. I get it, truly I do. It’s art, right? And I appreciate that people should be able to express themselves through art because, after all, art enlivens the soul and generally makes us all better and more complete human beings. It is art that inspires us and differentiates us from any other creature that inhabits this big old globe we call Earth. I accede all of this without hesitation and yet, despite my unquestioning acceptance of the enduring power and beauty of all things arty, when all’s said and done, it’s just a pattern on the top of a cup of coffee. It’s called ‘latte art’, whereby the person making your coffee creates a pattern on top of your drink. Rather than using a brush, the picture is created when the steamed milk is poured into the espresso and then manipulating the foam to create an image. Popular latte art examples include ‘the love heart’, ‘the tulip’, ‘the leaf’ and ‘the Rosetta’. None of these make the coffee taste any better; it’s purely an

aesthetic thing. But it’s notoriously tricky to do owing to the sheer unpredictability of the milk and espresso. I think it speaks volumes that art is no longer something we hang on walls but something we consume after shelling out three dollars fifty. We had decided to go out for break-

fast. It’s not something we do especially often, but I’d argued that we really should get out and explore the neighbourhood. The idea is that we visit a different café each time we go out. The more places we try, the more it becomes obvious how complex something like breakfast has become.

It’s no longer a matter of bacon and eggs with some grilled tomato on the side but an avalanche of confit, jus and various objects braised within an inch of their lives. In fact, it’s hard not to get the impression that we might just be trying too hard. Whereas once a bowl of rice bubbles and a piece of toast was a meal fit for royalty, we’re reluctant to get out of bed for any meal that can’t be described as a haiku. We are, quite frankly, getting a touch carried away. It began as café breakfasts always do. My wife and I were asked whether we wanted tea or coffee to start. Without hesitation, I ordered a flat white. I’m not sure why I chose a ‘flat white’ instead of any one of the dozen other options, but it’s the coffee that I most identify with. It sounds modest and sensible and could, in fact, be a description that applies equally to me, the drinker, as to the drink itself. But everything I ever believed about flat whites was suddenly upended when the drink arrived. The waiter plonked it down in front of me without explanation. There, staring out of my coffee, was a piece of latte art that had either gone horribly wrong or terribly, terribly right. I’m not sure how to put this without offending someone. In delicately pouring the milk and manipulating the micro foam, the barista had succeeded in creating and picture that Baldrick from Blackadder might describe as a ‘rude and amusing shape’. It goes without saying: this was not what I had ordered. Had it been up to me, I would have asked for a unicorn (my standard order), Che Guevara or Papa

Smurf but not this affront to all things wholesome and decent. Not over breakfast, at any rate. Suddenly, my choice of seating became crucial. As husbands are want to do, I had sacrificed the comfy seat against the wall and, as a result, my back was turned to the coffee machine. I’d seen it when we’d entered – a gleaming tangle of metal pipes that could just as easily be part of a Chevrolet’s engine – but I’d paid no attention at all to who was making the coffee. Now, however, I was afraid to turn around to see just who was responsible for the phallic foam on top of my coffee. Was the barista making fun of me? Or did they simply like the cut of my jib? Instantly, I regretted wearing a jib instead of jeans as my wife had suggested. The more I thought about it, the less likely I was to turn around. My wife, who had wisely ordered tea, found the entire experience hilarious. Had I the nerve to turn my chair, I wouldn’t have been a bit surprised to see Robert Mapplethorpe, dressed in black with a man bun, hunkered down over the milk steamer. Then there’s the real issue: where do you start drinking? Lucky for me, I take sugar. After adding in a half tea spoon and a whole half hour of vigorous stirring, the image finally vanished.

BESTO MONDO By Melissa Walsh

When you’ve been in the music industry as long as Ross Wilson, doing a gig like The Besto Mondo Tour is more like fun than hard work. Ross and the original line-up of Mondo Rock will be back this year to take the stage by storm again on Saturday 22 August at The Palais.

and all of us guys have been still full time musicians so it’s just fine tuning,” says Wilson. “Even though I perform some of the songs with my own band, when the original band get together there’s something different about it. It has that extra glue or power that gives the songs more weight.”

Off the back of rave reviews and sold out shows across the country last year, the iconic Australian rock band have announced a select season of theatre shows, with the original line up for their Besto Mondo Tour.

Mondo Rock will be hitting the road with the classic line-up – Ross Wilson, Eric McCusker, James Black, Paul Christie and Gil Matthews reuniting once again – and the lads cannot wait.

“It was great to get together with the guys again last year and we’re rehearsing at the moment for the Besto Mondo Tour,” says Wilson, who has just returned from holidays and is ready to rock. “Last year some of the songs on the Chemistry album I hadn’t sung in years and you tend to go back into the headspace of where you were those years ago.”

Finding fame and fortune with Daddy Cool in the early 70s, Wilson says he realised after the band dispersed how hard it had been to handle that kind of notoriety.

Wilson says this year they will be concentrating on songs from the best of collection.

“I kind of realized I was a bit nuts at the time. First of all you go around and the spotlight is on you and you become a bit overwhelmed, so when Mondo Rock took off I was more prepared,” said Wilson, who started out singing in the school choir and in a band at school.

“We are very diligent about how we prepare

“I grew up in a musical household so got into

my first band at school, and playing gigs weekends. Then I decided to take a leap off the ledge without a net and got into it full time.

There was no such thing as showbiz lawyers and little advice when we started out.”

My parents were very supportive. Dad really never mentioned it as a problem and over time I proved to him that I could make it work.”

“My musical style has changed a bit I think and I’m always looking for something different. I’m a music omnivore,” he says with a laugh.

As for longevity, Wilson says being in the position of a lead singer and a writer gives him the ability to marshal all the forces together and direct what’s going on, as well producing other albums for the likes of Skyhooks. “When I saw Skyhooks I sort of became their mentor. I was sticking up for them and watching out for them in the industry. I was really glad they signed with Mushroom because I didn’t want them to be censored.” The most difficult part of the 40-year journey, he says, was being young and a little naïve. “When you start off young and full of enthusiasm you tend to be more trusting so you have to learn. It’s the classic story of artists being exploited. These days it’s a lot more business like though with more resources available.

These days Wilson’s musical tastes are varied.

Mixing it up with Mondo Rock, New Zealand band Mi-Sex are special guests playing all their hits, including faves like Computer Games, Blue Day, People and But You Don’t Care. “It’s great to have Mi-Sex as supporting. They’re brilliant and we’re all looking forward to some fun,” says Wilson. Mondo Rock started out as a quintessential pub rock outfit and soon developed into one of the most prominent bands of the live music scene. As they prepare for the Besto Mondo tour, fans can expect the same musical genius all over again with hits from the Besto Mondo Greatest Hits Collection.

Tigers cause major upset NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt DROMANA caused the upset of the season on Saturday in Nepean League, leading all afternoon to beat Rye by 11 points. At one stage in the third quarter, the Tigers led by as much as 51 points. It’s been a tough year for the Tigers but they have continuously proved that their best is good enough to match it with the best in the competition. On Saturday at Dromana Recreation Reserve, they jumped the Demons and led by 11 points at quarter time and 10 points at the main change. Billy Quigley was a real handful for the opposition in attack with five goals, Matt Jones was at his best and former Demons Braeden Dennis was getting under the guard of the opposition and finished with three goals. Rohan Bleeker had a break-out

game for the Tigers and proved he belongs at the top level and Christian Ongarello controlled the match from the back half. The Demons came flying home in the last quarter with a seven goal to three term, however, they still fell short 15.19 (109) to 18.12 (120). While the result was sensational for Dromana, the real story was ‘what happened to Rye’? Nathan Henley was sensational with five goals and Ryan Mullett dominated through the middle. Adam Kirkwood provided plenty of drive, Sam Smith had an impact, Rhett Sutton regained some form and Ben Holmes booted three goals. With that kind of output from some of their better players, you would have expected a win, not a loss. Rye coach Josh Moore was shattered on Sunday following the match.

“I don’t take losing very well,” said Moore. “The difference between the two teams was simply they wanted it more. “We pride ourselves on effort and when we give it, we win more often than not. We just didn’t give it on Saturday and Dromana was better than us. “It’s a massive reality check. We may look back on it and say it was a good thing to happen. “Rehab was good on Sunday and we were very galvanised at the conclusion. I hate losing but it might be the kick start we need at the right time, “ said Moore. Somerville got things back on track to an extent on Saturday, turning around a sloppy first quarter to get the job done against Frankston Bombers. The Eagles trailed by two points at

quarter time but booted 13 goals to eight after the first break to celebrate a commanding 16.13 (109) to 12.7 (79) victory. Tom Shaw and Scott Simpson booted four goals each for the Eagles while Timmy McGenniss again dominated. Ben Sedgwick and Josh Westerman also challenged for the top votes. James Degenhardt was outstanding for the Bombers with three goals while Matt Harris and Jason Kingsbury also worked tirelessly. Sorrento, as expected, made light work of Pearcedale, winning 24.12 (156) to 6.6 (42). Myles Pitt booted 10 goals while a further 12 players hit the scoreboard. Leigh Treeby, arguably the best in the business, was best on the ground. Brendan Neville and Glenn Anderson worked hard for the Dales. Devon Meadows celebrated coach

Glenn Michie’s 300th game in fine style on Saturday, dominating the second hour to beat Crib Point 17.14 (116) to 7.12 (54). Troy Aust finished with three goals for the Meadows while Michie was one of five players to kick two goals for the winners. Jesse Dehey and Billy Hayes were outstanding for the winners. Zac Condick, Brad Arnold and James Cook were tireless for the Pies. Luke Clark booted 10 goals for Hastings as they bounced back against Tyabb, winning 30.21 (201) to 3.6 (24). Lance Brouwer and the underrated Chris Biviano were exceptional for the Blues, while Colin McVeigh was also at his best. Michael Frost and Adrian Clay were the best of the Yabbies. Rosebud and Red Hill had the bye.

Stonecats flex their muscles PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt FRANKSTON YCW flexed its muscles on Saturday in the Peninsula League match of the round, thumping Edithvale-Aspendale by almost 100 points. The Eagles came into the game having won five games on the trot, including against top five teams Pines and Mornington. However, at no stage was the home team in the match against the Stonecats. They were held goalless in the first and third quarters, eventually going down 19.16 (130) to 6.3 (39). The Eagles weren’t helped by the fact they were missing prime mover Tim Mavric and ruckman Aaron Pawel. The lack of a ruckman meant the Matt Kremmer had to be moved from the attacking end to the middle, resulting in the Eagles losing their ability to stretch YCW defensively. The bulk of the forward work was left to Jarrod Garth, who competed hard and booted two goals. Matt Clark was clearly the Eagles’ best with more than 20 touches through the middle of the ground. Former Richmond player Brett O’Hanlon was well restricted, finishing with just 13 possessions. Frankston YCW on the other hand was superb. It’s going to take a super effort from a very good side to stop this club win another premiership. Anthony Barry was the best player on the ground, controlling things

Out of reach: Mount Eliza handed out a 49 point defeat to Langwarrin in a low scoring game. Picture: Michael Kompa

from half back, while his cousin Byron wasn’t far behind him. Ash Eames was unstoppable in the ruck and gave first use to his small men all day, including Tony Lester, who finished with 21 possessions and two goals. In attack, YCW always looked dangerous. Anthony Bruhn had almost 10 shots on goal but finished with just four majors, while Lew Roberts was unassuming but still managed three majors. The likes of James Credlin and Ryan Santon don’t get a lot of atten-

tion but are growing in confidence each week, while Luke Collins is really starting to find his way. The only sad note on what was otherwise a sensational day for the Stonecats was the knee injury to Ben Buckley. Buckley was starring for the Stonecats but twisted his knee with just three minutes of the game left on the clock. He was stretchered from the field. Watching Frankston YCW play opposition sides is like watching boys versus men. The body shape of the

Stonecats is far superior to that of any other side and this is the reason they are going to be hard to stop come finals time. They don’t have a weak link. They have wonderful leadership, a self confidence that is undeniable and an enormous appetite to win. Seaford put a tumultuous week behind them, booting seven last quarter goals to shake-off Karingal, 16.15 (111) to 10.10 (70). The Tigers gave marching orders to their coach Ben Crowe on Tuesday night before training after Crowe resigned his position midway through the season. Despite Crowe committing to the club for the remainder of the season, the club decided it was best if he didn’t see out the year. Crowe said he understood where the club stood, however, conceded he was disappointed with the way it ended. “I thought I had the support of the club and the players to finish the season but obviously that wasn’t the case,” said Crowe. “You find out things that you were blinded by when everything unfolds and it seems that there were people at the club who didn’t support me. That being the case, the club officials had to do something about it”. Crowe said he would weigh up his future over the coming weeks. “If I play in Nepean, it will be with Somerville. However, I have a lot of mates at a lot of clubs – Pines, YCW, Mt Eliza, Edithvale-Aspendale.

“There’s going to be a lot of speculation on where I play next season but it couldn’t be further from my mind right now,” said Crowe. Mornington bounced back on Saturday, smashing Chelsea 20.16 (136) to 5.13 (43). Dale Nolan was dominant with six goals and Jackson Calder was dangerous also with four while Jake Smart finished with three goals in his best senior game for the club. Rory Gregg worked hard in the ruck for the Gulls, while Matt Gardener tried hard up forward with two goals. Pines too bounced back on Saturday, leading all afternoon to knock over Bonbeach 14.12 (96) to 10.7 (67). The Pythons set up the win with a seven goal to one first quarter. The Sharks booted nine goals to seven after quarter time. Guy Hendry starred for the Pythons with five goals while Aaron Edwards with four and Corey Ash were outstanding. Gary Carpenter and Jackson Sole led the way for the Sharks, along with Lachy Gill-Renouf. Mt Eliza strangled Langwarrin in a low scoring contest, winning 11.13 (79) to 5.6 (30). Justin Van Unen booted four goals for 87 for the season while Jimmy Clayton and Timmy Strickland dominated. Ricki Johnston was clearly Langwarrin’s best again, along with Blake Peach, who finished with two goals.
