Owl experience is a hoot MEET Hooty, the high flying star of the conservation and action show at Moonlit Sanctuary, Pearcedale. The three-year-old barn owl born and raised at the sanctuary enjoys performing point-to-point flying demonstrations under the watchful eye of keeper Fiona Rose. Their shows are held 2.20pm every day at the sanctuary on TyabbTooradin Road. Handlers wear falconry gloves to ward off Hooty’s strong talons. Picture: Gary Sissons

Boats free to launch Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au A DAY on the water will now be cheaper for boating enthusiasts in Frankston. Boat ramp fees were abolished at Kananook Creek and Olivers Hill last week. Boat ramp parking permits will

no longer be issued and casual parking fees will be removed for people parking with boat trailers. Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke said “by scrapping these fees, we’re ensuring more members of the Frankston community can get out on the water and wet a line.” Fishing and boating minister Jaala Pulford said “getting rid of parking

and launching fees is a massive win for Victorian families, who can enjoy more affordable boating and fishing this season.” The state government promised to abolish boat ramp fees statewide in the leadup to the state election in November last year. At Frankston Council’s 2 September meeting, councillors voted unanimously to “revoke all

boat launching fees previously adopted as operation - foreshore reserve maintenance in its 2019-2020 fees and charges (...) subject to reimbursement of income from Better Boating Victoria, authorise the Chief Executive Officer to execute the funding agreement with Better Boating Victoria for ongoing reimbursement to council for loss of income in relation

to removal of fees at boat ramps, and authorise officers to make pro-rata refunds to existing permit holders for the unused component of their current 2018/2019 permit.”

Sustainability awards for groups Funds pulled THREE local groups have been awarded for their efforts towards environmental sustainability. Natured Kids, the Frankston Beach Association, and the Frankston Regional Recycling and Recovery Centre were recognised at the 2019 Keep Victoria Beautiful Sustainable Cities Awards on 6 September. Narelle Debenham from Natured Kids was awarded the 2019 Dame Phyllis Frost Award in the community section for running environmental education programs. She said she was “delighted her work via Natured Kids has been recognised as a program impacting social, cultural and environmental change.” “Children learn so much about their natural world by being in it,” she said. “I praise those in our community who share their skills and knowledge with younger emerging environmental advocates as I do believe intergenerational connections have had significant impact on teaching our future generations how to care for this beautiful country, the land, fresh water and the sea over many millennia. “We all have a continuing responsibility to care for our country, the youth I work with each week give me great faith in and hope for a promising future. It is critical we continue to invest our time in mentoring those who follow us.”

COUNCIL funds for netball courts at Overport Park in Frankston have been put on hold so that community consultation can take place. Frankston councillors voted on 2 September to put their $35,000 funding allocation in the 2019/2020 budget for planning and design works on the Overport Park netball courts “on hold and the balance of any unspent funding be removed from the budget at the mid-year review, pending the completion of a full community consultation process and development of an updated master plan for Overport Park”. The report produced at the end of the community consultation period will be brought back to council next year. The motion was moved by Cr Quinn McCormack. She said holding the funding was “really about good governance”. “We are doing this the wrong way around,” she said. “It’s about general practice. This is not saying that the project doesn’t go ahead, it’s saying let’s get this procedure right.” Malcolm Lewis, president of the Frankston Dolphins Football Netball Club which plays out of Overport Park, made a submission to council outlining the need to invest in netball facilities to “get women back into sport.” Cr McCormack noted that there had already been “$6 million spent” on other works at Overport Park. “Every club asks the same thing, it’s about making sure which are our priorities,” she said. Crs McCormack, Glenn Aitken, Sandra Mayer, Colin Hampton, Lillian O’Connor, and Michael O’Reilly voted to hold the funding. Cr Kris Bolam abstained.

Newstart raise could help pay for housing Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au A DECLINE in affordable housing in Victoria is making it harder for people to make ends meet. The Peninsula Community Legal Centre says that “a decade ago, 30 per cent of new lettings in Melbourne were considered affordable, today its only 7.6 per cent.” The centre, which provides free legal services to people in Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula, says that a rise in the Newstart rate could make things easier for people struggling to pay for housing. “With the Victorian housing crisis centered on the availability of affordable housing, the urgency to raise the rate of Newstart is becoming pressing. We are seeing the impact of the crisis with 75 per cent of PCLC’s clients on no to low income. Low income being defined as living on less than $26,000 per annum,” they said. “The rate of Newstart has not risen in real terms for more than two decades, while the cost of living in Australia has increased substantially during this time. Because of the growing gap between those that can afford to live and those that can’t, we are seeing an inevitable increase in the homelessness rate. “The conditions in a rooming house can be

very substandard with problems relating to security and general comfort being very common. While the government argues that Newstart is not intended to be a payment you live on, it does not help if the payment is so low it is impossible to find living arrangements that support you to get yourself back to work.” The Newstart basic rate is $555 per fortnight. Calls to raise to rate have so far fallen on deaf ears, with the federal government failing to commit to an increase. A controversial proposed trial to drug test welfare recipients has also been discussed recently. The PCLC provides a rooming house outreach program to help with “building community relationships with service providers in the health, housing, material aid and counselling sectors.” The program covers 17 local government areas and over 800 rooming houses in Victoria’s southeast. PCLC CEO Jackie Gallloway said “we will continue to advocate for the rights of rooming house residents through our rooming house outreach program. In the future, we hope these vulnerable people will be able to afford a home environment that enables them to have the opportunity to escape the entrapment of poverty.” For more information about PCLC’s free legal services, call 9783 3600 or visit pclc.org.au.

Former Dunkley MP loses his senate bid FORMER Dunkley MP Chris Crewther has come up short in his bid to be elected to the senate. Mr Crewther was eliminated in the first round of voting. Sarah Henderson was instead chosen by Liberal colleagues to fill the vacancy left by Mitch Fifield. He told followers on social media “unfortunately I didn’t get across the line, but it was an honour to stand and I thank all the delegates and members of the Liberal Party who I was able to meet, speak with and who supported me over this journey from across Victoria.” “Particular acknowledgement goes to my wife Grace who has had to put up with a lot while on maternity leave, with first the campaign in Dunkley followed by an intense campaign for the Senate preselection.” Election tilt lost: After losing his seat at the May federal election, former Dunkley MP Chris Crewther’s attempt to reenter parliament via the Senate has failed.

Confused about the right blinds for your home?

Pets need forever home NEXT month’s Pets’ Day Out in Frankston could prove to be an ideal opportunity to adopt a rescue animal. The Lost Dogs Home will host a booth at this year’s event, offering advice to those thinking about adopting a furry friend into their family. Allison Brown from the Lost Dogs Home said “the shelter is passionate about finding the right homes for the countless unwanted pets found wandering, seized due to poor treatment or surrendered to their shelters each year.” “Every animal has a right to live in a loving home, and it is our mission to ensure the right pets are matched with the right people,” she said. “We encourage those thinking of adopting a pet to visit our adoption centre and chat to our expert staff about which pet might best suit their needs.” Langwarrin mother Sarah Guenther said that adopting a dog had been great for her family. “When we decided it was time to welcome a dog to our family we were blown away by just how many gorgeous unwanted animals were in need

of loving homes,” she said. “It feels good to know that our decision to adopt a rescue dog means that we’re not inadvertently supporting unethical puppy farms.” Council also runs an annual “adoption lottery” that “covers the purchase price and first year registration costs for the first 15 animals adopted from the shelter.” The Lost Dogs Home has more than 70 animals needing to be rehomed. They are all desexed, microchipped, and vaccinated. The Pets’ Day Out will be on Sunday 13 October. More information about the Lost Dogs Home at: dogshome.com

Call to complete fee scrapping Continued from Page 1 The mayor Michael O’Reilly said “council is pleased to have made this decision to support the removal of boat ramp parking fees in time for snapper season, which is always a very popular time at our local boat ramps.” After announcing fees had been abolished in Frankston, Ms Pulford asked for Kingston Council to work with the state government to abolish

boat ramp fees at Mordialloc. She said that Mordialloc and Queenscliff were the only public boat ramps in the state which still charge parking and launching fees. Ms Pulford said she called on “the City of Kingston to work with government to remove fees as soon as possible”. “We want the Borough of Queenscliffe and the City of Kingston to join the party because we know boat-

ers and anglers want to launch into a fee free spring,” she said.

Shire to drown in fees, costs

Column cut out: A column by Frankston councillor Glenn Aitken omitted from the Frankston City News will be published by the end of the year. Picture: Gary Sissons

Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au

Ratepayer funded newsletter purpose debated Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au A FRANKSTON councillor has claimed that his “reasonable freedom of speech” was infringed when his column was removed from the Frankston City News before publication. Cr Glenn Aitken penned a column about council’s code of conduct for the May/June edition of the newsletter. The Frankston City News is a ratepayer funded publication put out by council that is distributed every two months. Councillors pen one column for each edition of the newsletter. The column was raised at council’s 2 September meeting when Cr Aitken

moved a notice of motion to have the piece published in council’s November/December edition of the newsletter. “I have to remind council of the international bill of human rights,” Cr Aitken said. “There are overarching laws that pertain to reasonable freedom of speech.” “I am very concerned there is here an instance of blocking reasonable freedom of speech.” Cr Aitken said that “diversity of opinion and outlook” should not be silenced. Cr Quinn McCormack, a lawyer, said “we have a councillor claiming freedom of speech, but we don’t actually have a law of freedom of speech,

that is severely lacking.” “I do take umbrage to the censorship of councillor columns,” she said. The mayor Michael O’Reilly opposed publishing the column, and told council the Frankston City News was for “celebrating volunteers and staff”. “I think it’s time these columns are gotten rid of,” he said. “The fact this has come up demonstrates that this is too contentious.” “We cannot be criticising others.” Cr O’Reilly said the newspaper cost “tens of thousands of ratepayer money every edition” and should be for “community information”. The motion to publish the column was passed by a slim majority.

MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council is bracing for a “substantial administrative and enforcement obligation” when tough state government pool and spa regulations come into force early next year. The shire estimates it has about 10 per cent of the state’s private swimming pools and spas – the most of any local government area. About 17,000 are “known” to exist although the actual number could be as high as 25,000 – or one-in-four properties. The dates they were built are uncertain for all but 18 per cent – or 3040 – of the known 17,000. Officers estimate that up to 80 per cent of these pools and spas will be non-compliant under the new rules. These statistics are set to trigger a workload avalanche that the shire admits it is ill-equipped to handle. And it will be costly: The mayor Cr David Gill said the fees the council was obliged to charge would not equal the cost of enforcing the state’s new rules. “It will cost the shire – the ratepayers – up to $100 for every registration for which we will be reimbursed $57,” he said. “We estimate that the whole process, including administration costs, time spent chasing fees and fines, employing inspectors, and tracking down undeclared pools and spas, will cost $2$3 million in the first few years. “After that this figure will come down.” Statutory building manager David Kotsiakos reported to last week’s council meeting that the new rules

aimed to reduce drownings among young children by improving safety barriers. He said since 2000 there had been 27 fatalities and for every fatality 15 “near misses” often causing brain injury. Councils across the state will be required to establish and maintain pool and spa registers when the act comes into force on 1 December 2019. Existing owners must pay a $37 one-off registration fee by 14 April 2020. This will show the build date of the pool or spa (a difficult ask for 82 per cent of pools/spas on the peninsula), the standard of safety barriers, and the date the owner must provide the first Certificate of Compliance. Failing to register a pool or spa carries a fine of $330.44. Mandatory inspections will be carried out every three years. The owner must engage a registered officer (building surveyor, building inspector or private ‘inspector’) to ensure safety barriers are effective, working correctly and comply with standards. The owner then must lodge the certificate of compliance with the shire within 30 days for a fee of $20. Owners found to have non-compliant safety barriers can take 20 days to rectify problems or they will be issued with non-compliance certificates costing $385. The shire will pursue this amount. Owners can apply for time extensions if compliance work takes longer than expected. Cr Gill said he regretted that the shire would be forced to rely on noncompliance fees to help defray costs. “It’s not a position we like being in,” he said. “But in the initial stages that is the reality.”

NEWS DESK Police patrol

with Brodie Cowburn

Speeding mum in chopper chase A POLICE helicopter was called in to help chase down a driver who was detected driving over 180kmph in a 100 zone. A black Holden Commodore was spotted speeding on the Monash Freeway and EastLink before heading towards the peninsula about 4.15am, 11 September. The driver was allegedly detected driving at over 170 kmph at Dandenong South, and at around 186kmph heading south on Eastlink. Somerville Highway patrol members were joined by the police air wing in pursuit of the driver. Police pulled the woman over at Skye Road, Frankston, and drug tested her. The 36-year-old Frankston resident returned a positive preliminary oral fluid test for methylamphetamine and cannabis. Sergeant Julie-Ann Newman said that the woman “told police she wanted to get home to her kids”. She is expected to be charged on summons with drug driving, exceeding the speed limit by more than 45km/h, and driving in a manner dangerous. Her car was impounded for a month.

Card thief wanted

The four day operation saw eleven drink drivers caught. 14 drug drivers were detected from 228 tests administered. Police detected 289 other offences including speeding and mobile phone use. An Uber driver found themselves in trouble when they ran a red light at the intersection of Cranbourne Road and Beach Street and hit another car.

POLICE are working to identify a thief who used a stolen credit card to make more than $3000 in purchases. Frankston Crime Investigation Unit detectives were told a card was stolen from a car in Carrum Downs between 8 August and 9 August. The card was later used in the early hours of August in Seaford, Patterson Lakes, Dandenong, Dingley, and Mentone. The thief used the card for more than 30 transactions. An image of a man police “believe may be able to assist with their enquiries” has been released. Anyone who recognises the man is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000

Feeling low POLICE issued a defect notice to a driver travelling on the Frankston Freeway, 12 September. The 21-year-old man was pulled over in Carrum Downs, and told his car did not meet the 100mm ground height requirement. Police also pointed out defects with the exhaust and the steering wheel. The man received a $413 fine for driving an unroadworthy vehicle.

Drivers caught POLICE operation ARGUS, which ran until 1 September, saw 4577 breath tests administered to drivers in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula areas.

They were all released and are expected to be charged with trafficking a drug of dependence.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Motion to limit charge for football match entry defeated Compiled by Cameron McCullough Cr Oates said he noticed in the “Standard” that his action to prevent the Football Association charging 1s instead of 6d and 1d tax to football matches had been resented in some quarters. The Association, without notice, had increased the charge, and quite a lot of people resented their action, and although he had taken steps to have it blocked in the match between Frankston and Somerville, he had not been successful. He considered 6d a sufficient charge, and he moved the Association be informed that the maximum charge allowed would be 6d and 1d tax in forthcoming matches held in the Council’s parks. Cr Mason seconded. Cr Griffeth thought it would have been impossible to give change to the large crowd at the recent match. He considered 1s a reasonable price for semi-finals and finals, particularly as the clubs benefited. The players were not paid, and the association officers did not benefit. Any balance at the end of the season was divided amongst the clubs. He believed two Frankston men forced their way through the gate, refusing to pay. Cr Oates – It was a wonder they did not all do so. Cr Griffeth said it was the intention of the association, if funds permitted, to insure players against accident. Surely this should be encouraged ? Cr Oates – The people who are being penalised are the people who have stood to their clubs all through. Cr Griffeth – The association may

remove their matches to another shire. Cr Oates – That is a threat. Cr Murray thought it inadvisable at this late hour to interfere. He thought the association should have given the public notice before increasing the price. Cr Oates said it would be the people of this shire who were penalized. Balnarring and Dromana were out and Mornington had arranged a match on their own ground for the Saturday next, to keep their people away from Somerville, so the public of Frankston and Hastings Shire would have to pay. Cr Howell considered that the Council should have been approached by the Association before the price was altered. They were dealing with reserves held in trust for the public. Cr Longmuir thought 1s had been charged previously. Cr Oates did not think so. The Council had authority to collect 10 per cent but had never done so. Cr Griffeth said the footballers had done most to improve the Somerville park. Cr Latham thought a shilling a fair charge. Cr Unthank said notice of increase should have been given, but 1s, was a fair charge. President – I think so too. The motion was lost – the voting being equal. For – Crs Oates, Mason, Hoban, Howell, Armstrong and Wells. Against – Crs Turner, Unthank, Longmuir, Latham, Murray and Griffeth. *** OWING to Thursday being Show Day, the “Wattle” club will hold their usual

fortnightly euchre party and dance on Wednesday 24th September. *** THE third term of Mrs Dial’s private school, Frankston, has commenced at St. Paul’s school room and intending pupils should enroll with the principal at once. *** IT is expected by the Water Commission that a supply will be carried through to Flinders naval base within a few weeks. Arrangements have been made to connect the various townships en route, and it will be possible at an early date to link up the system with Frankston. Other townships will receive supplies shortly afterwards. *** APPLICATIONS for Peace Loan Bonds will be received up to September 23rd. The interest 5 per cent is payable half yearly in June and December, and is not liable to State Income Tax. Attached to each bond are coupons for the interest – one for each half year – and as those become due they can be cashed free of charge at any Bank or Money Order Post Office. *** ANOTHER Early Train Proposal – Many members of the Commercial Travellers’ Association, of Victoria are interesting themselves in trying to secure a Monday Morning Train from Frankston to connect with all early morning country trains. It is presumed that if this train is secured quite a number of commercial men will reside permanently in Frankston. ***

A GRAND cornucopia will be held in the Frankston State School and grounds on Friday, 10th October. The proceeds are to be devoted to the purchase of a piano for the school. During the years of war the children devoted their energies to raising funds for patriotic causes, and as this is their first effort for their school the committee expect to score a big success. *** THE “Frankston Cup” – (Racing men are advised to keep cool this is not a racing trophy.) In connection with the boxing tournament in Melbourne for returned soldiers arranged by the State Commandant, Brigadier General Brand, and organised by Major Conder, we notice that Mr J. B. Jolly of Frankston has donated a silver cup for competition to be known as the Frankston cup. *** THE Frankston Mechanics’ Institute is at present undergoing repairs and a general spring clean up. The painting work is being carried out by Mr Bert Stephens, who appears to be handling his task in a very workmanlike way. It is to be hoped that the Committee will bear in mind that the building with a new coat on does not give more room inside and that the public are anxiously awaiting the long promised enlargement of the ball. *** LAST week the Prince of Wales Hotel, Frankston, was purchased by Mr A. McKinnon of Melbourne, from Mr J. Sheridan of Frankston. The price paid is said to have been a substantial one, and consistent with the upward tendency of property values

now existing in this district. The new owner contemplates substantial improvements to the present commodious building, including the erection of a balcony and extensive accommodation for motorists. The present lessee is Mrs H. Garrood and her lease does not expire till about the middle of next year. *** MR D. H. Allen during a recent tour of the Peninsula proved a keen and critical observer. His impressions formed regarding our fruit growing areas were highly favorable, and coming from such a practical source his views carry more than ordinary weight. Mr Allen, who is the travelling representative of Mitchell and Co. Pty. Ltd., the well known manufacturers of farming and orcharding implements, has had 23 years experience as an orchardist and at present owns “Yaroba” orchard, Croydon, but he admits that he wants to see nothing better than the orchards of Somerville and surrounding districts. It is the intention of Mr Allen’s firm to arrange exhibitions in the various centres featuring their orchard plows, spring tooth barrows and other implements. Mr H. Gomm of Somerville has been appointed the local representative for the Peninsula, and Mr R. E. Peebles, is the firms sub agent for Frankston. When the date for holding the exhibition has been arranged ample notice will be given so that all interested may have an opportunity of attending. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 20 September 1919

Tigers take out the top prize DIVISION ONE

By Brodie Cowburn DROMANA have made history by winning the MPNFL Division One and Division Two premierships in consecutive years. The Tigers travelled to Frankston Park on Sunday to take on powerhouse club Sorrento in a much anticipated Grand Final showdown. Dromana came into the clash looking to go back to back after their second division triumph last year, and

Sorrento were looking for retribution after falling just short in last year’s big dance. Both sides had to battle through tough conditions throughout the afternoon. Dromana came out narrow leaders after a tense first quarter, and took a one point lead into the second term. The game opened up a little more after a low scoring opening quarter, as both sides added three goals each to their tally before half time. At the main break Dromana still held onto

their one point lead. The third quarter is often dubbed the premiership quarter, and Dromana were determined to make the most of it. A three goals to zero third term put the Tigers in the box seat. They went into the last quarter with a 15 point lead over Sorrento. Dromana could only add one more goal to their tally before the final siren, but they had done enough to get the win. It was a tense and hard fought battle, but Dromana managed to overcome the Sharks to claim the

win 6.9 (45) to 8.4 (52). Scenes of jubilation followed as the Tigers celebrated back to back premiership wins, this time over a rival team. Will Guerts was one of Dromana’s best, while three goals from Ben Holmes also helped them get the win. Sam Fowler scored two goals and was also impressive. On a tough day for Sorrento, Chad Harris was their best. In the Division One reserves, Mt Eliza claimed another Grand Final

win. The Redlegs took on Frankston YCW on Sunday, and started on the right foot with a four goals to zero first term. The Redlegs looked good from the outset, and eventually claimed the premiership with a 10.7 (67) to 6.5 (41) win. The victory secured the Redlegs their sixth consecutive reserves premiership. Frankston YCW fared better in the under-19s Grand Final, securing an 8.5 (53) to 6.7 (43) win.

Super Southern in Grand Final SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie SOUTHERN United’s remarkable youngsters stunned odds-on favourite and league champion South Melbourne at Lakeside Stadium on Saturday to claim a place in this weekend’s under-16 NPLW Grand Final. Southern finished the league season 27 points behind South Melbourne who had a superior goal difference of 57. But this Southern group has been one of the NPLW’s success stories having won the title and the Grand Final in 2017 at under-13 level and doubling up on championship success last year but losing 2-1 to Calder United in the under-14 showpiece event. On Saturday South Melbourne went ahead in the 55th minute when Georgia Kandilas was left free at the back post and headed home. But the lead only lasted two minutes. Southern captain Sage Kirby had her shirt pulled inside the area and leading scorer Rhys McKenna converted from the spot. The deadlock couldn’t be broken at the end of normal time and 10 minutes each way of extra time so penalties decided the winner of this cut-throat semi-final. And Southern gave a flawless display converting four times through McKenna, Olivia Cullen, Indy Scarr and Taylah Hennekam while Southern keeper Alex Jones saved twice to send the local side into this weekend’s Grand Final against Bulleen. Southern has an ace up its sleeve in head coach and former Matilda Deb Nichols who along with current under-14s coach Emma Bracken has nurtured these talented young players and helped them develop into one of Victoria’s best underage sides. An emotional Nicholls addressed her squad after the game: “Today is a day you will never forget. You will replay this day when you, in the future, are standing in my shoes in front of a team of young chargers. “This is why I have stayed in this game for 43 years, for days like today. “This game can break your heart but can also take you to the most wonderful places. “It’s been one hell of a week for this club but you just took it to another level. “So proud. Looking forward to an-

other Grand Final. We fear no one.” Things are just as exciting off the field and Southern made a raft of coaching announcements last week with Olivia Groves, Bracken, Nichols and Liam Drury all being re-appointed to their roles with the under-12s, under-14s, under-16s and reserves squads respectively. The club also announced that Melissa Maizels had been retained as senior player-coach and that Southern and Casey council have struck an agreement that will see the club based at the elite soccer facility at Casey Fields. It was the final step in Southern cutting itself free from a sometimes fraught relationship with Frankston council and many at the club are delighted at the switch of allegiances. In NPL2 news Jamie Skelly has been retained as Scott Miller’s assistant at Langwarrin. The former Casey Comets and Peninsula Strikers head coach was at the centre of a strong rumour circulating last week linking him with another local club but quickly dismissed any suggestion of a move. “I’ll be at Langy again next season and I’m really looking forward to it,” Skelly said. “My first choice always was to stay here.” Langy legend Gus Macleod was last week named as the club’s new head of coaching for its community junior teams.

Mark Cassar is Langy’s new NPL technical director replacing the highly successful Stephen Fisher who was tipped to be joining Frankston Pines but Bentleigh Greens and Doveton have been in touch and are keen to have him involved. Doug Hodgson has left Langwarrin and the club has advertised its NPL under-16 and under-18 coaching positions. In State 1 news Mornington has confirmed a number of appointments recently with Adam Jamieson re-appointed as senior coach along with assistant Nathan Peel. Craig Davidson is technical director of Mornington’s NPL juniors, Adam Austin is head of coaching for community junior teams and Andrew Martin is head of coaching for the women’s program. In State 5 news Somerville Eagles’ finals campaign ended last weekend when it went down 2-1 to Waverley Wanderers at Comets Stadium. Waverley left winger Panagiotis Tsoupeis was the most influential player on the pitch and he gave Somerville right back Callum Richardson a torrid time throughout. The most colourful person off the pitch was Waverley assistant coach Gabby Vlahos who insisted on reminding referee George Iliopoulos that there was a reason he was refereeing at State 5 level. The fact that Waverley was a State 5 team and Vlahos was a State

5 assistant appeared to be of little concern and an agitated Vlahos followed Iliopoulos to the referees’ room at half-time arguing over a decision taken in the first half. At one stage after the interval Iliopoulos stopped play to insist on a child leaving the Waverley technical area and was given an explanation that there was no-one to look after the youngster. This theatrical parry and thrust came to an abrupt end during the second stanza when Iliopoulos could take no more and he sent off Vlahos forcing him to leave the arena and become one of the 64 spectators on the other side of the fence. Meanwhile there was a match going on. In the 49th minute Somerville lined up to defend a Tsoupeis corner without anyone on the near post. That forced Somerville keeper Francis Beck into diving down low and late and failing to stop the ball slipping under his grasp and into goal for the opener. In the 62nd minute Somerville player-coach Dave Greening neatly turned inside an opponent on the right and broke forward then crossed to the far post where strike partner Mark Pagliarulo’s first-time sidefoot volley made it 1-1. But Tsoupeis wasn’t done with yet. In the 72nd minute he looked set to curl in a free-kick instead squaring the ball to former Skye striker Nick

Theodore and his drive from outside the area rocketed into the far corner giving Beck no chance. Somerville pushed central midfielder Daniel Hodge forward late in the contest but the damage had been done. Meanwhile Aspendale Stingrays and Rosebud signed off on the 2019 State 5 season with a remarkable 12goal catch-up contest at Kingston Heath Soccer Complex last Wednesday night. What was a whirlwind start for the Stingrays turned into an arm wrestle in which they eventually prevailed 8-4. Aspendale led through 16-year-old Nathan Barnett whose pace worried Rosebud early and the teenager scored the first two goals inside four minutes. When Kieran Hughes made it 3-0 in the 25th minute a comfortable night seemed assured. Right on half-time the first of a Cory Osorio double made it 3-1. An eight-goal second half centred on a quickfire hat-trick from substitute Anthony Segavac whose goal blitz was achieved in just nine minutes ending any hopes the visitors had of completing a comeback. It was an excellent season finale for the Stingrays who boast the youngest side in the competition. The game also marked the 250th appearance for the club of Aspendale’s Noah Berends who is just 18 years old. Aspendale’s best were Hughes, Peter Dimopoulos and Kenan Nuhanovic. In other news Monterey Reserve will host Go Sevens during the offseason. The program is a Football Victoria initiative at venues across the state and while a typical GO Sevens competition runs for seven weeks each location can also vary the competition length.

Edwards’ first Stakes success HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou BALNARRING-based trainer Kerry Edwards landed her first Stakes race with stable star, Rox The Castle, at Flemington on Saturday 14 September. Despite drawing an outside barrier, the former New Zealand galloper was too tough in the Listed $140,000 The Sofitel (1400m) stakes after sitting outside the lead and holding on for a narrow victory. The gutsy win topped off a Mornington-trained trifecta with the Rachel Frost-trained Travimyfriend finishing half-of-alength away in second and the Grahame Begg-trained Romancer finishing a further length behind in third. Trainer Kerry Edwards was understandably ecstatic following the gallant victory. “He is unbelievable,” she said post-race. “That was seriously tough what he did then. Craig (Williams) sat on him as long as he could, it was a little bit close at the end, but he just digs in so deep. I’m so proud of him.” With three horses in work and one being broken in, the parttime trainer has placed the lightly raced Rox The Castle perfectly to bring his record to seven wins and two placings from 12 starts. Also mixing her small training business with work as a gardener, Edwards says having a horse like Rox The Castle makes it even more enjoyable. “I’m just a small stable and I do it all myself so I really can’t handle anymore than four in work at one time so it’s a little bit of a juggling act, but I have the passion for the horses and getting a horse like him is absolutely outstanding,” she said. Champion jockey, Craig Williams, was aboard the four-yearold son of Castledale in his Stakes victory and believes he’ll be a great competitor for more races in the Spring. “There’s no doubt that he’s a Spring class horse but it’ll be interesting to see which way Kerry goes with him,” he said. “They’ve just managed him so well for a lightly raced horse.” Edwards will follow her usual planning strategy and make decisions on where to head next with her star gelding in the coming days once she has an understanding on how he has come through his win. Rox The Castle has now taken his prizemoney past the $250,000 mark.
