The thin tache line MOUSTACHES abound at Frankston police station in Fletcher Rd. The boys in blue are relishing their chance to take part in the Movember movement, supporting a great cause in helping raise awareness of the big health issues faced by men – while having a bit of fun.

Over the past five years the police team has raised $29,215, with team captain Senior Constable Scott Middenway saying the amount raised so far this November is already more than $3200.

The police regard Movember as a great opportunity to connect with and support the community with a common goal of helping men live happy and healthier lives.

Since Movember started in Melbourne in 2003, more than $770 million has been raised helping fund 1200 projects focused on prostate cancer, testicular cancer and suicide prevention.

The organisation aims to “make strong progress� on the three key health problems before tackling the many other critical health challenges men often experience.

Those wanting to get on board and support the cause can donate to the Frankston Police Station Team at the Movember site at moteam.co/frankstonpolice-station Mo bros: Matt Anderson, Blair Jeanes, Scott Middenway, Travis Woolnough, Nigel Lees, Shane Lee, David Maurice, Justin Watson and Phil Hulley.

Train station crime ‘on rise’ Liz Bell liz@baysidenews.com.au SAFETY on the Frankston train line has hit the spotlight again, with claims that the latest crime statistics show high crime in the area despite security improvements including CCTV cameras and patrols.

Liberal police and community safety opposition spokesman Ed O’Donohue said data showed 31 offences were recorded in the two months between April and June this year, but that many of the crimes committed outside of protective services officer operating hours were still

going “undetected”.

Statewide, there were 1629 crimes committed at metropolitan railway stations in the same period, the highest quarter of crime at metropolitan train stations since 2014.

Frankston’s train station has been the subject of safety concerns for years, with several initiatives such as piped music, improved lighting, CCTV in the X’Trapolis trains, and PSO patrols around stations aimed at reducing antisocial behaviour.

Commuters and business operators have long complained about brazen drug dealing and unruly youths hanging around the station and causing problems.

PSOs were introduced by the former Napthine government at Frankston train station in August 2013, and a wall of closed-circuit television screens at Frankston police station was installed this year in the latest strategy to fight street crime.

The CCTV cameras, capturing footage in high resolution to clearly identify offenders, focus in on crime as it happens at crime hot spots, such as the train station and shopping centres.

Any claims of a crime rise were questioned by Frankston Labor MP Paul Edbrooke, who said there was “more work than ever” going on to redevelop the transit precinct and central Frankston as

part of the state government’s $63 million upgrade to the area.

“This includes working with Frankston police to decrease negative behaviour and increase perceptions of safety in the area,” he said.

Mr O’Donohue’s claims came as an extra 20 police officers and 19 PSOs joined the state’s crime-fighting ranks.

Police graduates - including 10 men and 10 women – completed a 33-week training program which involved on-thejob training and placements at police stations.

The PSOs - 17 men and two women - completed a 12-week training course.

PSOs now patrol 215 train stations, in-

cluding Frankston, from 6pm until the last train every night.

The Victoria Police Academy will be running at capacity over the next 12 months with around 1000 police, PSOs and custody officers in training.

Victorian Police Minister Lisa Neville said the government has funded more than 1150 police personnel since November 2014.

“Victorians can get used to seeing more and more police hitting the beat as we ramp up recruitment at the Victoria Police Academy,” she said.

“That means more boots on the ground in our communities – fighting crime to keep our state safe.”

CEO’s mystery trip ‘overseas’ Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au

Time to take out the trash: Frankston High School students Matilda Scroggie, left, Dan Fidele, Spencer Byrne, Georgie Dowel, Maud Verheij, Ella Bowman recycle goods at the school’s new recycling hub. Picture: Yanni

Recycling to educate students SUSTAINABILITY and education are at the heart of Frankston High School’s new community clothing recycling hub, which is reducing landfill while raising funds for environmental projects across the greater school community.

Students have already raised almost $100 by collecting used clothing, shoes, toys and electrical goods for recycling, thanks to recycling partner SCR Group. The recycling bins, which were placed at the front of the Foot Street campus, mark the beginning phase of the school’s educational environmental hub.

The recycling initiative has a strong cross-curricular focus, with students in the ‘Eco Team’ developing an advertising campaign, writing a blog, designing and distributing promotional pamphlets, contacting the media and presenting at school assemblies to encourage students and local families to use their recycling hub. Year 11 student Valentina Harrasser even designed a special ‘Eco Team’

logo for the recycling hub to let the community know that their contribution supports their environmental projects.

Frankston High School’s sustainability coordinator Brendan Mckinnon said the community clothing recycling hub was a great way for students to have “ownership” of a program that reduces waste to landfill, engages the community, supports global communities and raises funds for environmental projects at the same time.

“Our ‘Eco Team’ is very excited to be receiving their first payment, which will be used to purchase materials required to increase the reach of their education campaigns, including beginning to set-up an environmental hub within the school “, Mr Mckinnon said.

“The great thing about the community clothing recycling hub is that it will be an ongoing source of funds for our Eco Team and it’s easy for the local community to use and access.”

FRANKSTON Council’s chief executive officer has gone on a mystery trip and no-one at council was able to say exactly where last week.

Dennis Hovenden is believed to be overseas on business and leave but enquiries over several days about his whereabouts failed to locate council’s CEO. The Times understands councillors were not notified of Mr Hovenden’s absence and there is disquiet about the CEO not flagging his intention to head overseas for at least two weeks.

The CEO’s trip comes at a time when bedding in councillors, including four newly-elected councillors, for a new four-year council term after last month’s council elections is crucial.

This month’s trip for Mr Hovenden is the second foreign sojourn in recent months for council’s highestpaid employee, whose annual remuneration was listed as $330,000339,999 in the latest council annual report.

Mr Hovenden visited Kansas in the US in September to attend the International City/County Management Association’s (ICMA) annual conference.

For the past five weeks, The Times has been requesting information about that trip, the names of any council staff that also went to Kan-

CEO MIA: Dennis Hovenden not in Kansas anymore?

sas and any ratepayer-funded expenses incurred.

The CEO visited Washington in the US in August last year at his own expense and used his own leave to attend the 2015 ICMA conference.

Mayor Cr Brian Cunial said the mayor was “overseas” when contacted and asked about Mr Hovenden’s latest trip.

He directed questions to council’s media and communications department.

Gillian Kay, acting council CEO in Mr Hovenden’s absence, did not respond to the questions passed on

by Cr Cunial.

Soccer star wants medals back SCOTTISH soccer star Stuart Munro is appealing for the return of medals he won during a distinguished playing career in the UK. The Mt Eliza resident’s home was burgled recently and medals awarded to him during a successful seven-and-a-half-year stint with Scottish giants Rangers were among the items stolen.

“They got away with stuff that they probably could move on fairly easily, like my TV and my laptop, but the medals are my main concern,” Munro said.

“Although they are probably not worth much in gold value they hold great personal value for me.

“There were a couple of Scottish championship medals, a couple of League Cup

winner’s medals, all in small blue boxes, and a larger medal in a red velvet box which was a Champions’ Cup medal [for] when we beat Everton in Dubai in the mid80s.”

Munro played as a semi-professional with St Mirren and Alloa in Scotland before joining Rangers as a full-time professional in February 1984.

He played 228 games for the Glasgow club, including European Cup matches against Inter Milan, Bayern Munich and Red Star Belgrade. He won four Scottish Premier League titles and four League Cup medals during this period.

In July 1991 he transferred to Blackburn Rovers for a fee of around $600,000, spent two-and-a-half seasons with Bristol City

then kicked off his coaching career with Falkirk.

He came to Australia in 1997 to take up a contract with Sydney-based Blacktown City and has also coached Australian National League sides Carlton, South Melbourne and Gippsland Falcons. He has also been assistant coach of A-League outfit Perth Glory.

Munro also coached Victorian Premier League sides Oakleigh Cannons and Dandenong Thunder and was named VPL Coach of the Year in 2006 and 2009.

He became the inaugural senior coach of women’s club Southern United this year and recently returned to the men’s game as head coach of Dandenong City.

Swimmer all at sea on way to concert

Car set ablaze A MOLOTOV cocktail was thrown onto the bonnet of a car in Faygate Ct, Frankston, last week, setting it ablaze.

Senior Constable Jarrad Brookman, of Frankston CIU, said neighbours heard a loud bang as the heat of the blaze “popped” the Holden Commodore’s windscreen, 3.40am, Monday 14 November.

One neighbour ran outside and used his hose to fight the fire, but the blaze had spread. The car was a write-off.

There appears to be no motive for the attack, Detective Brookman said.

Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Servo ram raid CASH and cigarettes were stolen by two men who ram-raided the front doors of the Langwarrin Coles Express service station, 3.56am, Sunday 13 November.

The men in a stolen black Celica coupe drove back past police along on Frankston-Cranbourne Rd and through a red light, almost hitting a motorcyclist, as they made their getaway.

Police did not chase the car which was later reported as being seen in Cranbourne.

Truck off THE driver of a stolen tip-truck “did a runner” from police on FrankstonDandenong Rd, Carrum Downs, last week. Senior Sergeant Justin Watson, of Frankston police, said an unmarked car’s crew spotted the truck near Glasscocks Rd, Bangholme, 2.20am, Thursday 10 November, and indicated it should pull over.

The truck driver stopped but then suddenly reversed back and “took off”. Because of the size and speed of the vehicle, police did not chase it.

Anyone with information is urged to call Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000.

Give them back: Stuart Munro is appealing for return of medals.

Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au A DISORIENTATED swimmer struggling in the water about one and a half kilometres off Frankston beach put up a fight when police arrived to rescue him, Friday 11 November.

The 32-year-old Frankston freestyler had other ideas: he was intent on making it to “a concert” in St Kilda – 40km away – and did not take kindly to efforts

by Senior Constables Julie Edge and Paul Follett, of Frankston police, to haul him aboard.

Earlier, onlookers at Frankston pier raised the alarm when they saw the fully clothed man climb down into the water and swim off into the distance.

“Pretty soon he was out of sight and it came across our radio as a possible drowning,” said Senior Constable Edge, who is also a recently elected Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor in Watson ward.

With emergency services craft 90 minutes away at Williamstown, too far off to be of any help, the senior constables accepted the generous offer of two local fishermen to ferry them out to the recalcitrant swimmer.

A jet skier keen to assist rode ahead to look out for the man and kept in contact with the police using his mobile phone.

Senior Constable Edge said she told the jet skier to “keep his distance” when he reported back that the swimmer was refusing offers of assistance.

“I didn’t want him getting pulled in too,” she said.

When police arrived on scene the man

On look out: Police would like to speak to a man and woman, above, involved in an altercation with an elderly man in Beach St.

Elderly man attacked at shops POLICE have released CCTV images of a man they believe assaulted an elderly man in a Frankston shopping centre in July.

The 70-year-old victim, of Frankston South, was leaving a Beach St shopping centre when a woman bumped into him about 1pm. The victim spoke to the woman and they started to argue.

Without warning, another man ran at the victim and punched him on the side of the head, knocking him unconscious.

Senior Constable Alistair Parsons said the man and woman ran from the

shopping centre before police arrived.

The images show the man to be aged in his 20s, solid build, with dark coloured hair. At the time of the incident, he was wearing a yellow hivis zip-up hoodie and dark pants with white shoes.

The woman is aged in her early 20s, thin build, red hair and wearing black framed glasses. She was wearing burgundy pants, black sneakers and a black jacket.

Anyone with any information should submit a confidential crime report to crimestoppersvic.com.au or call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Arrest over 70 robberies A MAN suspected of up to 70 burglaries on factories and commercial premises in the Frankston, Dandenong and Casey areas was arrested last week.

Detective Senior Constable Jason Hamilton-Smith, of Frankston CIU, will allege the man raided 30-40 premises in Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula from September up until his arrest, Wednesday 9 November.

The robberies included small cash amounts and miscellaneous items taken late at night and in the early mornings using stolen cars.

Detective Hamilton-Smith agreed the man was something of a “Lone Ranger” and said stolen property was found at his address.

A 24-year-old Cranbourne man has been remanded in custody to appear at Dandenong Magistrates’ Court, 30 November. Another man living at the address was charged with handling stolen goods and drug offences.

Rescuer: Senior Constable Julie Edge, above, dragged a reluctant swimmer out of the sea off Frankston pier. Pic: Yanni

was about two kilometres out and not going well; he also rejected their offer of help. She described him as “argumentative”.

“He refused to come aboard; he didn’t want a bar of that,” she said.

“He said he was swimming to St Kilda and that he was fine, but, by his answers, I could see he clearly was not fine and was certainly not going to make it all that way.

“By what he was saying about being “nearly there” [St Kilda] I could tell he was affected by alcohol or drugs and not really with it.”

Senior Constable Edge, a former competitive triathlete, said she “gave the man about 15 seconds to think about it and then jumped in and brought him aboard”.

Back on shore, the man who claimed he was a former competition swimmer was taken by ambulance to Frankston Hospital with a low core temperature and treated for hypothermia.

Luck of the draw for council candidates Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au DONKEY votes in the Frankston Council elections last month saw two candidates who polled more first preference votes than other candidates miss out on being elected to council.

Savvy candidates also found a way around new election rules aimed at stopping candidates in Victorian Electoral Commission mailouts to voters directing preferences to other candidates.

The state government banned ‘how to vote’ cards from being inserted alongside ballot papers in September but several candidates in last month’s council elections instead listed preferences in their candidate statements that usually detail a candidate’s background and pitch for votes.

Votes tallied by the VEC across all three Frankston Council wards – NorthEast, North-West and South – shows David Asker, Brad Hill and Darrel Taylor were unfortunate not to be elected as councillors.

All three received more first preference votes than the third-placed elected candidates in their respective wards.

Under a preferential voting system candidates who fail to gain a minimum quota of votes to be elected go headto-head over several counting rounds with preferences allocated to remaining candidates.

Ballot paper position on voting forms mailed out to ratepayers can decide which candidates are elected if they do not receive enough first preference votes in their own right.

A donkey vote occurs when a voter

Brad Hill

David Asker

numbers a ballot paper from top to bottom in numerical order.

Voters often mark ‘1’ or ‘2’ for their preferred candidates then donkey vote down the rest of the ballot paper without realising each numbered box can decide which candidates are elected.

Each third-placed candidate elected to council last month – Michael O’Reilly (North-East ward), Lillian O’Connor (North-West ward) and Steve Toms (South ward) – was listed higher on their respective wards’ ballot papers than opponents who missed out on being elected despite getting more first preference votes.

Mr Hill and Mr Asker, who have both served as councillors in the past, were particularly unfortunate to be listed last on their respective ballot papers.

Mr Asker received 4239 first preference votes in North-East ward, more than the 3707 such votes Cr Colin Hampton and 3563 votes Cr Michael O’Reilly gained.

Mr Hill gained 2439 first prefer-

ence votes in North-West ward, more than the 1878 such votes to Cr Lillian O’Connor.

Mr Taylor received 2531 first preference votes compared to 1864 to Cr Steve Toms.

VEC spokesman Mike Lagastes said the order of candidates’ names on Frankston Council ballot papers sent to voters was chosen randomly by computer.

“The computerised draw software has been independently certified, determining that the draw is completely random,” he said.

Candidates can attend the public ballot draw.

Despite voting in council elections being compulsory for voters statewide registered on the electoral roll just 70 per cent bothered to vote in last month’s Frankston Council elections.

Voter turnout was lowest in NorthWest ward with just 66.25 per cent returning completed ballot papers in the postal vote.

Drug-driving woman had children in car

Cr Kris Bolam urged voters to vote 1 for him, 2 for Cr Lillian O’Connor and vice versa in their candidate statements.

Cr Brian Cunial urged people to direct second preferences to Cr Quinn McCormack.

Cr Sandra Mayer asked voters to vote second for Cr Colin Hampton who returned the favour by urging voters to vote for Cr Mayer second on ballot papers.

Crs Bolam, Cunial and Mayer did not ultimately need preferences to get over the line to be elected as councillors.

The VEC did not regard candidates using statements to list preferences as being a loophole that was exploited at last month’s council elections.

“Candidates at postal elections are responsible for what to include in their own candidate statements,” Mr Lagastes said.

“The returning officer assesses each submission when it is lodged, and may only reject a statement using the criteria of the Local Government Electoral Regulations 2016.”

Those regulations state candidates must not encourage voters to make an invalid vote, also known as an informal vote or “spoiled” ballot paper.

While Darrel Taylor missed out on preferences from being re-elected as a councillor this time around he was first elected to council in 2012 on preferences after gaining less first preference votes than other candidates.

Preferential voting is also used in state and federal elections in Australia.

See vec.vic.gov.au for full details of how the preferential voting system works.

POLICE who stopped a woman driver after a school pick up in Langwarrin found she was driving under the influence of the drug ice.

The woman’s car was intercepted by police who found two unrestrained children, a three-year-old child and three-month-old baby, in the car on Friday (18 November).

The baby’s safety straps were allegedly loose.

Somerville Highway Patrol decided to intercept the unregistered vehicle, with no number plates, as it headed along Robinsons Rd, Langwarrin about 3.50pm.

A drug test found the presence of methamphetamine. Police say the sample will be forensically analysed.

The female driver, a Frankston resident, is expected to be charged on summons with drug driving, driving an unregistered vehicle, driving an unsafe vehicle and two counts of failing to have children passengers properly restrained.

Youth arrested A 14-YEAR-OLD Frankston boy was arrested on Thursday in connection with a burglary at a house in Rosemary Cr, Frankston North, Saturday 5 November.

Detective Senior Sergeant Paul Mealia, of Frankston CIU, said jewellery and a computer were stolen in the raid, in which several youths were allegedly involved.

The youth has been bailed to appear at a children’s court next month.

A GROUP of volunteers with experience of cancer have joined forces as “community champions” in a bid to improve Frankston’s low cancer screening rates.

The innovative community awareness program was launched last week

by Cancer Council Victoria, South Eastern Melbourne Peninsula Health Network and Frankston Council, in response to data showing that screening participation rates for Frankston residents are among the lowest in the state.

The 12 volunteers come from Frankston and surrounds and have been trained to spread the word amongst family, friends and colleagues about the need for early detection and treatment.

Cancer Council data shows bowel cancer is Australia’s second-biggest cancer killer after lung cancer, but only 32.2 per cent of Frankston residents have participated in the national faecal screening program (FOBT), compared to the Victorian average of almost 38 per cent.

Bowel cancer is curable in 90 per cent of cases if detected early.

Breast cancer screening in Frankston is also below the state average, with only 49 per cent of residents having regular mammograms compared to the state average of 54.5 per cent.

Only 55.4 per cent of residents are regularly tested for cervical cancer,

compared to a state average of 60 per cent.

Peter Harrison from the positive ageing team at Frankston Council said it is important for people to realise the importance of early detection.

“There are so many health issues to worry about as you get older, but our hope is that by getting a group of passionate people from Frankston together, we can make a difference to improve Frankston’s bowel screening rates,” Mr Harrison said.

“Our champions have all been

touched by bowel cancer in some way and are motivated to encourage their fellow Frankston residents to do this simple, free test.”

Cancer Council Victoria screening manager Kate Broun said that most people should be doing the FOBT rather than having a colonoscopy to screen for bowel cancer.

“People who don’t have symptoms or a strong family history should be doing the FOBT, it’s a clean and simple process that only takes a few minutes to do that could save your life,” she said.

goes out to save lives Team work: Diana Farmer, left, and Lois Dennington are getting the cancer screening message out. Picture: Jarryd Bravo

The FOBT kits are sent is sent to eligible Australians aged over 50, who are the biggest risk group.

Health authorities provide free, twoyearly screening programs to eligible residents to test for bowel cancer, breast cancer and cervical cancer.

Anyone not covered by the national program can purchase a FOBT from Cancer Council Victoria online at cancervic.org.au/boweltest or call the helpline on 13 11 20. FOBTs are also available through some GPs, pharmacies and health care funds.

Early detection the key TWO of the women involved in an innovative cancer awareness campaign bring experience in education, health and illness to their roles as “community champions”.

At 82, Mornington accountant and Edithvale resident, Lois Dennington, has more energy than many people half her age. The Australian Masters swimming champion still works every day, swims regularly and works out at the gym twice a week.

But 20 years ago the future looked very different for Lois, who in her early 60s was diagnosed with bowel cancer and had to endure invasive surgery followed by six months of chemotherapy.

One of the “lucky” ones to rebound with a clean bill of health, the energetic octogenarian has used the time since to promote good, healthy living through Frankston Council’s ‘Positive Ageing’ programs, and now as one of the Cancer Council’s 12 community champions.

Ms Dennington takes her role to raise awareness of regular cancer screening very seriously and has been subtly, and sometimes not-so-subtly, bringing up the subject with friends, family and colleagues.

“It is a difficult subject – nobody

wants to talk about poo, but I try to take the fear and embarrassment out of it,” she said.

“Back when I was diagnosed there wasn’t the easy option of a bowel screening kit you could do yourself, so it’s so much easier now and reliable.

“I feel that if you are in a position to help people, you do something about it.”

For Langwarrin resident, retired community nurse and fellow community champion, Diana Farmer, the message is clear.

“It’s an important conversation and I’m happy to talk to anyone about it – some people think it’s a bit yucky, but it’s not - it’s necessary,” she said.

During her time as a breast cancer support nurse and palliative care nurse, Ms Farmer has seen the terrible emotional and social costs of the disease.

“After working as a nurse, it’s really not difficult for me to talk about these things with people and if we, as people in the community, can change people’s approach to prevention and screening, that’s great,” she said.

“This country is very fortunate to have such excellent programs that raise awareness and give people a chance to do something about their health.”

Ambos response slightly slips EMERGENCY ambulance response times have risen by the smallest of margins across Frankston and best practice targets for emergency callouts are still being missed.

Data released by Ambulance Victoria shows 83.9 per cent of code one calls in 2015-16 across Frankston were responded to within 15 minutes.

The average response time in 201516 to 9695 incidents was 11 minutes, 25 seconds. This was a slight increase on an average response time of 11 minutes, 24 seconds to 9345 incidents in 2014-15.

The Ambulance Victoria target for under 15 minutes response times for areas with a population greater than 7500 is 90 per cent.

The Frankston area has more than 135,000 residents.

Victorian Health Minister Jill Hennessy in April said the Labor state government included $144 million “to fix the ambulance system after four years of crisis” in its first budget and highlighted statewide response time improvements.

“With ambulance response times now the best they have been in five

years, this shows what can be achieved by working together with our paramedics – instead of declaring war on them like the Liberals did,” Ms Hennessy subsequently said in a statement this month.

Liberal opposition health spokeswoman Mary Wooldridge said ambulance services are not improving in line with increased funding.

“Before the last election, Daniel Andrews claimed ambulance response times were in crisis and said he would fix it,” Ms Wooldridge said.

“After nearly two years as Premier, he is nowhere near his target, with response times similar to what they were under the previous government when Daniel Andrews claimed it was a crisis.”

In 2014, when the previous Coalition state government was in power, Ambulance Victoria refused to release response times categorised by local government area and instead only provided statewide figures.

Ambulance Victoria’s board was axed and replaced after Labor’s state election win in November 2014.

The bald truth

Lucky escape: Pilot Graham Hosking checks the damage to his light plane after the crash. Picture: Gary Sissons

Safe and sound after forced landing A MT ELIZA man is lucky to be alive after his light plane crash landed and ended up on the bike path running alongside Peninsula Link, Tuesday 15 November.

The crash occurred about 400 metres north of the Robinsons Rd overpass in Baxter.

Pilot Graham Hosking said he tried to land on the baseball ground but ran out of space and had to lift off again to clear a fence, then took out a tree before ending up on the bike path after a total engine failure. He suffered a small cut to the leg and a bump on the head in the crash which happened at 11am.

& ASSOCIATES PTY LTD PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

Mr Hosking, whose father founded the Hosking’s Jewellers chain of stores, suffered an abrasion to the head and a cut on his leg. He phoned his wife who was playing bowls to say his plane had crashed, and to reassure her he was OK. The 1938 model, open-top, single engine plane, from Ryan Aeronautical Company in the United States, didn’t fare so well – suffering extensive damage.

Police attended and Tyabb Aero Club crews began dismantling the plane for removal. There was no disruption to traffic.

IT took Frankston retailer and alopecia sufferer Tammy Lobato many years to overcome the sense of isolation that goes with being “different”, so she understands only too well the embarrassment, anxiety and fear surrounding the topic of hair loss.

Speaking out last week during Alopecia Awareness Week, Ms Lobato said she lost her hair when she was three due to the auto-immune disease and spent many of her younger years suffering from bullying and feeling alienated.

But the former Victorian Labor MP, who runs a wig store in Frankston, said alopecia had made her a stronger person, more compassionate and empathetic, and driven by a “desire to create change and right wrongs”.

She regularly counsels younger people afflicted by hair loss, telling them they will develop inner strength and learn skills that will enable them to be effective leaders in the future.

“I wore a wig in primary school and I remember children talking about me and noticing that there was something different about my hair,” she said.

“Children being children, that point of difference made me a target for bullies, so I grew up learning that I had to be resilient to get through.

“It certainly changed my life early on, as I didn’t do some of the sports I would have liked to do, but I just had to deal with it.”

Ms Lobato, the MP for Gembrook from 2002-10, opened her wig store 18 months ago after seeing a gap in the market, and describes her new career as “a blessing”.

“As an MP I was able to help people,

and now with my store I love being able to help young people particularly who are facing hair loss and trying to cope with some of those inevitable feelings of being different,” she said.

“I had for 40 years experienced frustrating, sad and humiliating times in various wig shops with rude and impatient sales staff, being sold inappropriate, unflattering wigs shoved in brown paper bags and made with an appalling lack of quality and sold by people taught to sell, not to care.”

Ms Lobato’s parents were co-founders of the Frankston South-based Australia Alopecia Areata Foundation Inc in the 1970s, which provides support, advice and information for sufferers.

Alopecia affects around two per cent of the population, and there is no cure.

It is believed to be an immunological disease which disrupts the hair follicle and results in total or partial hair loss.

Cull possums If the kangaroos, our native emblem can be culled, why do possums in plague proportions on the Mornington Peninsula not be subject to the same fate?

We are aware that some people make a living from shifting them around, but that hardly constitutes a reduction of the pest activities that people as far north as Frankston have to live with.

When you can’t step out your front door or back door without slip sliding around and you can’t enjoy the benefit of growing your fruit and vegies, something has to give, the possums, or at least sensibly culled.

Ron O’Toole, Mt Eliza

Problems on line Rail crossing removal works on the Frankston line have created significant delays for commuters. This is despite no rail crossing removals yet to occur in Carrum, Seaford or Frankston.

This inconvenience further reinforces the neglect that the Frankston line has received over the course of numerous governments. This concern does not factor in the proposed Skyrail works which will add further (and more substantial) delays for commuters.

The previous government removed Frankston line commuters from mainstream morning services that traverse through the city loop.

However, this misstep has not been fully rectified with reports of many Frankston line trains skipping railway stations and cancelling services to avoid being fined by the state government.

This tactic is further crystallised with statistics from the Victorian Transport Users Association indicating that only 69 per cent of trains on the Frankston line arrive within five minutes of expected services (which contrasts with the Victoria-wide average of 86 per cent).

The Frankston line has the second highest number of commuters in Victoria and is also one of the most heavily populated lines per railway stations (and this doesn’t include the yet to be built station at Southland, which will bring the total to 25). Although this may be good

for accessibility, it will make the trip between Frankston and Melbourne even longer (the average trip to Frankston is already too long at 60 minutes).

These things illustrate the problems we have to contend with on the Frankston line and I call on the state government to recognise the hardships commuters are facing and to consider possible reparations such as Myki fare reductions in response to ongoing – and future – service delays.

‘White Australia’ Refugees on Nauru, Manus islands and in other detention centres face the ignominy of being classed as non-citizens if the bill proposed by Immigration Minister Peter Dutton has his way.

What a terrible situation to be in: stateless, persecuted at home and where you sought asylum.

To be held as hostages to warn off anyone who dared to do the same.

These people have been processed as refugees. Children have been born here but, due to a policy supported by both the major parties, they are at the whim of a minister whose lack of insight is evident in his brutal words which sums up a country devoid of compassion.

To have the Prime Minister reinforcing that policy borders on the hypocritical given his previous attitude before taking office.

Is this the White Australia Policy in a new guise?

Isolation and secrecy keep the real truth away.

Pandering to racist elements in our society brings out the worst and the best in Aussies, as Grandmothers Against the Detention of Children showed at a recent rally in Melbourne.

It is time politicians listened to what the people are saying. For heaven’s sake, what are a few thousand in a world of so many refugees and why are we so gutless in coping with them?

Are we so precious that we have to bribe poorer countries to avoid our responsibility. They are not a burden on Australia’s economy. We have been compassionate country before - why are we behaving so arrogantly now?

Summer barefoot bowls back TAKE your shoes off, feel the grass - or synthetic turf - beneath your feet and enjoy the social side of barefoot bowls at the City of Frankston Bowling Club.

Barefoot bowls, the summer craze that sweeps the nation each year, is now a Friday fixture at Frankston, offering low-stress fun for all.

Get together with family and friends or join a team.

While bare feet are best, anyone preferring to cover up can wear runners or flat-soled shoes.

Go before the games start at 6pm and relax

with a drink or stay after the game and socialise on the club’s new observation deck.

Entry fee of $10 (adults) and $2 for children gets you everything you need to play, plus a sausage sizzle and raffle.

Bookings not required but groups of four or more are asked to email mintonym1@bigpond. com or call Yvonne Minton, 0418 348 264.

The Frankston Bowling Club is at the cnr Yuille and William Streets.

Cricket charity helps kids wield willow worldwide Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au

Line and length: Donations from Luke Serong’s cricket charity have given the game new life in impoverished countries. Picture: Yanni

LESS HEATING LESS COOLING MORE LIGHT

UN O IT NL S Y AV F AI EW LA BL E

A BLAIRGOWRIE cricket player has given a lot back to the game he loves. But now Luke Serong is preparing to bid farewell to his charity Cricket4Kids, which has donated tonnes of second-hand cricket equipment to needy children all over the world.

After living in London as a flight manager with Qantas, Mr Serong, 38, flew home via Sri Lanka almost a decade ago with wife Bree. Visiting a school which had been devastated by a tsunami, they noticed hordes of children playing cricket in hand-me-down gear of poor quality.

“We cooked up the idea for the charity there,” he said, and set about getting things moving.

A call to his playing mates at Old Wimbledonians resulted in the arrival of 50-60kg of second-hand gear – much to the delight of the locals.

Now, almost a decade on, the charity has donated 9.5 tonnes of old gear to children in 18 countries, including the Cook Islands, East Timor, India, Indonesia, Fiji, Kenya, Papua New Guinea, Philippines, Rwanda, Samoa, Solomon Islands, Sri Lanka, Thailand, Tonga and Vanuatu.

Gear also goes to Indigenous children in regional and Outback areas.

“We received no funding for the first six and a half years, but then the International Cricket Council got behind us and offered $5000 for five years and that got us going,” he said.

Unfortunately, it was harder to win support from Cricket Australia, but hopefully, more support is in the offing.

Recipients of the gear in far-flung countries are encouraged to “take ownership” of the donations.

Cricket4Kids arranges to collect it but the actual shipping out is handled by agents of the countries involved.

“We spend our time collecting the gear and they arrange to ship it,” Mr Serong said.

A teacher and unabashed cricket lover, Mr Serong grew up in Dromana and played cricket for Rosebud, and then Brunswick.

A highlight of his “career” was attending the T20 World Cup in Bangladesh in 2012 and donating 900kg of cricket gear to teams from Nepal and Bangladesh. There he met an Indian man who has since begun a version of the charity in the SubContinent, ensuring the concept lives on.

Showing the valuable impact the donated gear can have on a community is a good way of attracting support, he said. “In one case, a woman donated the cricket gear of a brother who had died at work and, in another, the family of a boy who died in the Black Saturday bushfires donated his gear.

“We showed photos to those families of the joy it brought to the children in Vanuatu who got to use their equipment and that brought home to them the true value of their donations.”

A documentary Mr Serong made in The Solomons showed how the donated gear, when used by former civil-war enemies, came to represent common ground. Two of the old antagonists got together for a game of cricket, which gradually became part of the healing process.

Other donated gear is being used in Imparja Cup matches between Indigenous communities around Alice Springs.

Mr Serong is hoping a national cricket drive, with support from Cricket Australia, will generate added interest in the charity. He is already receiving publicity and ground space in the outfield at the MCG Boxing Day tests and on Channel 9’s Cricket Show.

A highlight was receiving quality gear of all sorts from former Test player David Hussey. Its auction raised “a couple of thousand” dollars.

With stumps on the charity to be drawn in autumn next year, Mr Serong can look back of a match well played.

All orders placed prior to Christmas receive a BONUS upgrade to a high performance safety glass, at no additional cost (terms and conditions apply).

Local Customers receive a 10% discount off total price.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Reputable picture show coming to town Compiled by Cameron McCullough FRANKSTON, Mornington etc, have been visited by numerous picture shows, some good, others bad and indifferent.

Controlled by amateurs who purchased a machine, tried a few films and inflicted themselves on the public, so to speak, they fell into the ‘Biz’. and, as usual with incompetent people, soon became extinct.

We are now to be visited each week; Frankston, Friday, and Mornington Saturday, by the Majestic Picture company controlled by men who and have been professional all their lifetime and will bring leading and up-to-date pictures as long as the local patronage warrants it.

They will open on Friday next, Nov. 24th with Australia at War - to be followed by The Cause of a Nation; Battle of the Somme, etc.

There will be the usual Love, Dramatic, Sensitive and Comic Film in addition each night.

The company is under the management of Mr Rankini. The veteran M. Rankini whose name is known throughout Australia, this alone guarantees that professional ability combined with business acumen will be left undone to make this entertainment a success.

We trust the public will give them the support they deserve. *** THE audience at the last Scottish Concert will remember the enthusiasm which greeted Miss Isabelle Langlands, the charming violinist.

*** MR Finlay has been appointed to take charge of the Presbyterian Church work in Frankston and district. His first services will be conducted next Sunday as advertised. *** AS can be seen by our advertisement column, a Mission will be opened at the Catholic Church, Frankston, next Sunday morning. The sermons will be delivered by Father Hunt, the well known Redemptorist preacher. *** MR C. McKenzie was successful in pulling off the double (Handicap and Welter Handicap) at the Heathcote races on Tuesday, with his horse “Boothulla”, carrying 8st 11lbs in the former, and 10st in the latter. There were four starters in each event. The betting was 2 to 1 in the Handicap, and 5 to 4 in the Welter. *** WE are requested to call attention to an advertisement in another column to the effect that arrangements have been made provisionally to make a Sixth Presentation to Frankston Volunteers, on Wednesday, November 30th.

We also have pleasure in making an earnest request to friends of recent Frankston volunteers to forward to the Hon. Sec., Dr Plowman, the names and exact camp, or other addresses of such recruits. The labours of the committee will be much lessened thereby. *** THE members of the W.C.T. Union-

visited the Langwarrin Camp on Thursday October 26th.

In the absence of Captain Condor and Chaplin Gates, the party was met by the officers in command, also Mr Smith (organising secretary of the Y.M.C.A.).

A service was held in the hospital ward by some of the members.

Favorite hymns were sung at the request of the patients, who joined in the singing. Earnest words were spoken to the men, who listened attentively and a profitable time was spent for the Glory of God. An inspection was made of the various improvements going on at the Camp for the comfort of the officers and men, and the gardens look very trim and neat.

An invitation to afternoon tea was gratefully accepted and much appreciated. A vote of thanks was passed to the officers, for their kind welcome to the members of the W.C.T.U. *** Frankston Court of Petty Sessions.

Monday 20th November 1916 before Messrs C. G V Williams, W. J. Oates and C. W. Grant, Js.P. Inspector Britt charged Mrs B. M. Garrood, licensee of the Prince of Wales Hotel, with permitting persons on her premises after hour, and Messrs T. McComb, E. K McComb, F. Addicott, and H. Cottier with being on such premises after hours.

Inspector Westcott appeared on behalf of Inspector Britt, who prosecuted and Mr Jones for the accused.

A plea of not guilty was put in by

It might have been closed. Did not have a drink nor did anyone else.

To Inspector Westcott -The door was so that a child could open it. It was not locked.

F. Addicott deposed that he had gone to Garrood’s that evening to talk to him about purchasing firewood.

Never had a drink after hours that night. The door leading into the bar parlor from the passage was wide open, and the window facing the street and the window looking into the billiard room was also open.

To Inspector Westcott - When the constable came the door was open.

H Garrood recalled- The door was open all the time we were there.

All the doors leading into the house were open. Can get into the room from the outside when the door is snibbed.

E. K. McComb sworn said - Was in the bar that evening till half past nine o’clock, There was no one served after hours that night. The bar parlor doer was wide open.

Constable Ramsay, recalled - When I went to the hotel tried to get into the room, but could not, I heard voices, and I knocked. I swear the door was locked when I tried to get in.

The Bench did not consider that a breech of the law had been committed and dismissed the case, with two guineas costs. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 25 November, 1916

all the parties concerned.

Constable Ramsay deposed to visiting the hotel on the 14th of October at about ten minutes after ten o’clock, and found the defendants on the premises.

To Mr Jones - There was no evidence of trading - I did not ask for the keys.

For the defence, Mrs Garrood deposed that on the night the police visited the hotel she was in bed. Did not come down again that night.

H. Garrood, husband of the licensee, remembered Constable Ramsay visiting the hotel on the night of the 14th October. E. McComb was in the house on the night in questions.

He assisted in the bar when required, under a mutual agreement. There was no trading after hours that night.

H. Cottier was also in the house, with the intention of playing billiards.

T. McComb and F. Addicott were also in the parlor.

I was talking to Ad about selling me some firewood and I also spoke to Cottier about wood.

The constable then came in at eight minutes past ten. T. McComb was in the house on purpose to see his daughter (the licensee). There was no drink sold that night after hours.

T. McComb deposed that he remembered the night in question. The reason that he was in the house that evening was to acquaint his daughter with the fact that her mother, who has been ill, was better.

The bar parlor door was not locked.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Middle aged rage against the machine

By Stuart McCullough THERE’S a tipping point, I think. A moment beyond which there’s no going back. For me, it arrived just last week. Each year, my brother Cameron and I are the same age for exactly four days. Tradition dictates that for those ninety-six hours we must squabble like seagulls over the world’s last remaining chip. Such infantile behaviour is probably forgivable, even mildly endearing, during childhood.

That this kind of malarkey should have survived into adulthood is something about which I am slightly ashamed. In my defence, I can only say this: he started it.

Every family has its hierarchy. And, as the first born, I was right at the very top. I was the star perched atop the Christmas tree, the ladder’s highest rung. Lucky for my siblings, I was a kind and beneficent ruler, prone to acts of compassion and generosity if I wasn’t already too busy either teasing them or breaking their toys. As the eldest of five kids, I was lord over all I surveyed which, if I climbed the big eucalypt in the back yard, was quite a lot. Be in no doubt: being the eldest child is a pretty sweet deal.

But there was a problem. As a result of what I can only conclude was a major scheduling error, my brother Cam’s birthday was (and, annoyingly, still is) four days before my own.

None of my friends had this kind of problem; they were all at least a full year older than their younger brothers and sisters. Only I had to suffer the unique and exquisite ignominy that is being a ‘same age brother’. Imagine this: you are required by your parents

to attend some kind of function, most likely one involving cold buttered pikelets and alleged ‘punch’ that, in reality is just a truckload of pineapple juice with random fruit meteorites thrown in. Amidst the festivities, some well-meaning but gloriously de-

luded adult asks how old you and your brother are. In less time than it takes to say ‘pineapple chunks’, my brother would volunteer that we were the exact same age.

This was objectionable for several reasons. Firstly, the mathematics are

all wrong. It was as if my brother was deliberately ignoring the fact that I remained three hundred and sixty one days his senior. All that mattered was the headline, details be damned. Try as I did to point this out, he remained completely immune to reason. It drove me to distraction which, I think, he enjoyed immensely. Second, my brother seemed to regard the fact we were the same age as an event that totally redefined our relationship. I was, at least according to my brother, no longer the boss of him.

It was always such a jarring claim.

Fact is, for the other three hundred and sixty one days of the year, I never felt like I was the boss of my younger brother. I was more like a consultant, someone who’d be brought in to analyze things before issuing a report that told him everything he did was wrong. Back then, this was a full time job. Whereas I believed I was being helpful, upon reflection it’s clear that my brother regarded these interventions as acts of tyranny. Little wonder that he used those four days to maximum effect.

Credit where credit is due: he was relentless. Cam’s grin was never wider than it was immediately after his birthday. It was like the Arab spring every year as he rose up to seize control, albeit for periods of less than a week. Even into adulthood, I could expect to be reminded that I was no longer the boss of him and that we were, at least technically speaking, equals. It got so that I would ‘accidentally’ misplace my phone, laptop and carrier pigeons for those four days, lest he should track me down and

begin taunting me. Now, however, things are different.

There comes a point where being the same age as your older brother is no longer the glorious achievement it once was. This is the moment when cutlery, glasses and the little clay pot that holds the ground up black pepper all go flying as the tables gloriously and permanently turn. That moment is middle age. To make my point, I came out of the blocks fast and hard, sending him an early morning text that read: ‘suck eggs – you’re now the same age as me.’ If I were younger, I would probably have thrown in a few antagonizing emojis for good measure, but I could tell that I’d hit my mark. Over the next three days, I was sure to remind him that we were the same age. His attempts to explain that I was still three hundred and sixty one days older than him fell on deaf ears (one of the side-effects of getting older). Until, of course, my birthday came around.

They say pride comes before a fall. When my mobile shuddered, I reached over only to find a message from my brother: ‘Congratulations, you don’t look a day over forty-four.

Enjoy your mid-forties’. The part of me that isn’t outraged is kind of impressed. Cam has since emphasized that, at forty-four, he is in his early forties, whereas at forty-five, the term ‘early forties’ is no longer available to me. He has once again managed to get the better of things. It is clear to me now: I must seek revenge. And I only have three hundred and sixty one days left to prepare. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

BIRDS: FLIGHT PATHS IN AUSTRALIAN ART 2 December 2016 to 12 February 2017 - A Mornington Peninsula Regional Gallery exhibition Over 70 works by 50 contemporary and modern Australian artists will be brought together for this exhibition on the bird.

OPEN FOR ENTRIES

Encompassing works from painting to sculpture, decorative arts, photography, print-making and installation, this exhibition, two years in the making, will explore the science, symbolism, beauty and curiosity of birds.

Artists including Albert Tucker, Rover Thomas, Ginger Riley and contemporary artists such as Brook Andrew, Fiona Hall, John Wolseley, Ben Quilty, Christian Thompson, Kate Rohde, Petrina Hicks, Trent Parke and Louise Weaver consider birds as objects of desire, in relation to fashion, history, identity, the environment and as emblems of empire and nationhood.

In a country proud of its unique birds - our kookaburras, emus, galahs and cockatoos - contemporary artists are now considering the threats to our fragile ecology. Fiona Hall’s night parrot is dressed in camouflage gear to protect it from extinction, Penny Byrne’s ceramic parrots are kept under glass with contemporary detritus and Louise Weaver uses crochet and stitching to camouflage and transform a galah within a classic taxidermy pose.

Iconic works by colonial artists John Lewin and Richard Browne and early 20th century artists Sydney Long and Hans Heysen will be juxtaposed alongside these contemporary works.

Birds: Flight Paths in Australian art will include a specially commissioned interactive work

by Juan Ford where visitors will be invited to create a bird filled landscape using thousands of bird stickers provided by Ford.

Melbourne artist Kenny Pittock has created an off-beat colouring-in book focusing on birds found on the Mornington Peninsula, famously home to an abundance of indigenous birds, wanderers and migratory birds.

Pittock was an artist in resident at the Mornington Peninsula Shire’s Police Point Artist in Residence cottage during October, researching for this special project.

Ladder leaders: Peninsula Old Boys notched up an easy victory against Mornington, scoring 319 runs in their 80 overs.

Picture: Rab Siddhi

Kangas defy the long odds PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully LANGWARRIN sits in third position on the MPCA Provincial table after pulling off a remarkable victory against Long Island.

The Kangaroos are far from the most talented list in the competition, however, they are playing a brand of cricket that is based on team spirit, pressure and taking pride in personal performance.

Already this season the Kangas have beaten more fancied opponents Somerville, Crib Point and Long Island, all sides that played finals last season.

On Saturday, Langwarrin had no right to beat the Islanders.

Resuming at 9/101, the Kangas

lasted another nine overs and added a further 27 runs (128) to their overnight total.

One thing the Kangas were aware of was the fact that Long Island’s batting has been brittle this season. Scores of 100, 156 and 81/79 in their previous three matches suggested that any score north of 120 for Langwarrin was going to be competitive.

It proved to be the case, the Islanders were rolled for 122 in 54.3 overs.

Jake Prosser was outstanding for the winners, holding up the batting with an unbeaten 38 and arguably winning the match for his team with 3/9 from 5.3 overs with the ball. Mal Coutts was also superb with 1/15 from 11, Matt Prosser claimed 2/25 from 14 overs and Matt Campbell snared 2/10 from eight overs.

Peninsula Old Boys remain at the top of the ladder after recording an effortless victory against Mornington.

When Mornington posted a score of 212 against the Old Boys, it looked competitive given their bowling strength.

However, the Old Boys made it look easy, resuming at 0/6 and cruising to 8/319 in their 80 overs.

Mt Eliza successfully defended its 285, which was always going to be the case against Moorooduc.

The Mounties bowled out the Ducs for just 82 in 46.4 overs in the first innings with Justin Savio picking up 7/35 in 19 overs. Shamith Kannangara top scored for Moorooduc with 29.

The Mounties had another 51 overs to try and roll the Ducs a second time to claim the outright, however, could

only claim 6/125. Nick Baron collecting 3/53 from 21 overs.

Resuming at 3/9, Sorrento looked up against it to reach Crib Point’s total of 126.

Fast forward 30-odd overs and the Sharks were bowled out for just 110.

Crib Point batted out the rest of the day and made 8/104, meaning that a total of 28 wickets fell in the match for just 340 runs.

Both the Pies and the Sharks have some work to do with the bat!

Baxter is in second place on the ladder after a strong victory against Somerville.

The visitors didn’t set the world on fire with the bat, scoring just 179, however, their bowlers stepped up to the plate and did what it needed to to get the result.

The Eagles were bowled out for 132, Justin Bridgeman claiming three wickets to go with his 52 with the bat, while Chris Brittain also snared three wickets.

Leigh Lowry was the best of the Somerville batsmen with 49.

Pines picked up a much needed win against Pearcedale at Tractor Park.

Chasing 151 for victory, Pines resumed at 2/23.

Harley Peace-Stirling played a real captain’s knock, scoring 73 to help the Piners to 9/164.

Ashley Hupe provided great support for 30 runs. Shayne Gillings was the pick of the Pearcedale bowlers with 4/34 from 13.4 overs while Kaine Smith bowled 29 overs for a return of 3/74.

second innings and Dean Collins top scored with 55, however, it didn’t prevent yet another outright loss, as the Demons were rolled for 138.

Luke Collins took 4/32 in the first innings and 5/44 in the second for Main Ridge and James Abbott claimed 4/34 and 2/8 to be the pick of the bowlers.

Mt Martha has early bragging rights in the battle of the top contenders (after four rounds) after beating Red Hill.

The Hillmen went into the clash as ladder leaders but Mt Martha has joined them after recording an a near 100 run victory.

The Hillmen were bowled out for 120 on the first day of the match and

the Reds resumed at 2/69.

Riley Shaw scored an unbeaten 100 against his old side to almost singlehandedly win the home team the match.

Jimmy McCall and Lincoln Toy each took three wickets for the Hillmen.

Flinders continues to fly under the radar, sitting nicely in third place on the table after recording a solid win against Boneo.

Defending 247, Flinders bowledout the Pandas for 202. Chris Jobling (52) and Ryan Jellie (44) appeared as though they were going to make life difficult for the Sharks, however Max Royal snared 4/46 from 20 overs and

Dwayne Field picked up 3/50 from 19 overs to wrestle back the momentum.

Heatherhill was on shaky ground overnight at 3/48 against Delacombe Park but eventually got the job done, scoring 149, a victory of 23 runs (126).

Christian Heath top scored for the Hills at the top of the order with 56 while Brett Maxwell contributed a more than handy 47 in the middle order to help get the Hills over the line.

When Maxwell went out, the score was 5/122. The game was won.

Andrew Stapleton was the pick of the Parkers’ bowlers with 3/20 from 4.4 overs while Dean Blight bowled 20 overs for a return of 2/30.

Rosebud did what it had to do

against Baden Powell, winning by three wickets.

Chasing 155 for victory, the Buds past the total with three wickets in hand.

It looked ordiinary early for the Buds at 4/50, however, 43 from Jason Mathers and 64 from Pete Doughty ensured victory.

Seaford Tigers managed an easy victory against arch rival Seaford.

After scoring 245 with Jon Plakourakis hitting 86 and Ash Mills 80, the Tigers then bowled out Seaford for 159. Mills was the star with the ball also, picking up 5/48 from 22 overs.

The Tigers were 4/25 in their second innings.

Main Ridge in the mix DISTRICT

By IT Gully MAIN Ridge got its season back on track, picking up maximum points against Rye in MPCA District cricket.

After losing the opening game of the season to Delacombe Park, the Ridge have had a draw against Rosebud and an unconvincing win against Boneo in round three.

Rye resumed its first innings at 7/26 after the Ridge declared at 5/294.

The Demons soldiered on early on the second day with Andrew Hitchener offering great resistance to score 76 and help his side get to 143.

Hastings win a thriller SUB-DISTRICT

By IT Gully HASTINGS pulled off a thrilling three run win against neighbour Tyabb in the fourth round of MPCA Sub District on Saturday.

After scoring 277 on the opening day of the clash with Luke Hewitt getting 71 and Nathan Hunt 59, the Blues’ bowlers needed to step up to the plate.

The game was in the balance all afternoon with Tyabb’s middle order not able to capitalise on solid starts and the Blues’ bowlers picking up wickets at

important times.

However, with Tyabb opener Aidan Pateman scoring 106 at the top of the innings, the Yabbies were always in the contest.

Then, later in the afternoon, Matty Dimkos decided to add some spice to the clash, scoring an important 44 which almost got the Yabbies over the line.

Jack Whitehouse’s 16 was also significant.

However, with just one over left in the game, Jake Hewitt ran out Sam HollandBurch and helped the Blues record a three run win.

Ryan McNamara and Devlin Webb were the major contributors with the ball for the Blues.

Carrum Downs recorded an important victory against Frankston YCW. The Stonecats resumed at 0/14, chasing 208 on the second day of the match.

They were bowled out for 144.

Lai Leaunoa top scored for the Stonecats with 37 and Levi Lachlan-Dore opened with 24.

The day belonged to the Cougars’ bowlers with Chris Maloney taking 3/35, Ryan Lynch 3/16 and David Dervan 2/44.

Ballam Park kept its season alive, recording a strong victory over Dromana.

The Knights chased down Dromana’s target of 205 with five wickets and five overs in hand.

Skipper Stuart Plunkett top scored for the Knights with 61 and David Crosss hit 54, helping the home side to 5/211.

Balnarring threw everything at Skye to try and get an outright win but fell six wickets short.

Defending 6/294, Balnarring rolled Skye for 93 in the first innings and had them 3/92 in the second innings.

Brenton Taylor, Geoff Bradshaw, Na-

than Kleinig and Tony Wilson all picked up two wickets in the first innings for the Saints while nine different bowlers were given a go in the second innings.

Tootgarook made light wok of Carrum, winning by more than 100 runs.

Defending 7/307, Tootgarook bowledout the Lions for 194.

Josh Dent top scored for the Lions with 50 and Hayden Moulton scored 46, however, Matt Whelan capped off an outstanding match, taking 4/42 from 21 overs to go with his 128 runs.

Paul Stevenson claimed 3/48 from 17 overs.

Will Hine help Mornington to threepeat?

SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie JOSH Hine could be the key to Mornington’s attempt to win a historic third straight State 1 championship in 2017.

The 25-year-old English striker is believed to be in advanced negotiations with the Dallas Brooks Park outfit in what would be a major coup for local football.

Hine’s CV includes spells with Burscough, Vauxhall Motors, Clitheroe, Skelmersdale, Chorley and Stalybridge Celtic and he currently is on the books of National League North outfit Salford City.

He is one of four English-based players with whom Mornington is understood to have recently held discussions.

One of them, 23-year-old midfielder Ben McKenna, has decided to stay in England having been offered a contract

by Southport FC. The other prospective imports are Jack Truelove and Nathan Smith.

Truelove, 20, is a Burnley-born left back or central defender who has had stints with Oldham, Stalybridge Celtic, Colwyn, Brackley, Curzon Ashton and Hednesford.

Smith is a close friend of former Mornington striker Ryan Paczkowski, who now plies his trade with NPL heavyweight Bentleigh Greens.

Smith is a left-sided midfielder or winger with Brigg Town in the Northern Counties East League and is described on the club’s website as a “great character to have around the club, fitness levels are very high and has a wand of a left foot”.

It’s believed that Mornington also has been in talks with two midfielders from rival State 1 clubs but senior coach

Import target #1: Josh Hine

Adam Jamieson refused to name them.

One of his targets could be Warragul United midfield dynamo Thomas Ahmadzai who also is on Langwarrin’s radar.

Mornington is just one of a number of State 1 clubs that are going all out to win the title next year which should give them entry to Victoria’s elite National Premier League setup.

A protectionist policy banning promotion to and relegation from the NPL had been in place during the competition’s infancy and although there is yet to be an official announcement from FFV an understanding is in place that the policy will be dropped from next season.

This has sparked a signing frenzy

Sudoku and crossword solutions

among local clubs Mornington, Langwarrin and Casey Comets who know that they face enormous competition from four cashed-up Greek-backed clubs in Clifton Hill, Malvern City, South Springvale and Caulfield United Cobras.

Comets struck the first big blow recently when they announced the signatures of last season’s Langwarrin captain Alex van Heerwarden and Frankston Pines captain CJ Hodgson but Mornington plans to outdo their rival by signing a number of visa players.

The only visa player currently on the club’s books is Northern Irishman Sammy Stewart but he has received a significant job offer from the UK and will decide early next year whether or

not to accept.

He already has told Mornington that he will play there next season should he remain in Australia.

“There’s probably three or four players that might move on but that’s not going to be because of my decision but more their decision,” said Jamieson.

Rumour had been rife that key central defender Steve Elliott could join Langwarrin but along with Simon Webster and Kris McEvoy he already has signed with Mornington for 2017.

“They’re the only ones that have been signed to date but I’ve spoken to most of the other boys and have commitments from them without them actually signing on the dotted line,” said Jamieson.

“We start training on December 6 and I’d like to think that by Christmas I’ll have 12 or 13 all signed up.

“We’re planning to have a really strong squad. Last season we had a fantastic 13 and the plan is to have a really, really strong 16 with everyone fighting for positions.

“It’s going to be a very tough league and you keep hearing what some of the other clubs are doing but I’ve always said that we’ve got to continually concentrate on what we are doing because if we veer away from that we’ll be in trouble.

“We’ve got a second, a first and a first in the last three years so we’re not doing too much wrong.”

For much of last season Wayne Gordon led the way up front and Jamieson already has told the former Gretna and Workington Reds star that he is a required player for 2017.

If Hine can be paired with Gordon next season then Mornington will have a potent strike force.

Jamieson also plans to ramp up the sports science approach to competition after tinkering with GPS units last season.

“We tried an app from our physios that was intensity-based and we purchased five GPS units and started to build data on certain players.

“Now we’re taking it to the next level and next season every starting player will have a GPS for training and games and an analyst will receive data weekly then report monthly to each player.

“We want to raise our peak performance and also monitor our injury rates so we can track measures we take for injury prevention.

“This is all part of us wanting to become a better club and getting to the NPL. “We understand that training two nights a week and a match on the weekend isn’t going to take us to our optimum level but once we get into three and four nights training in the NPL setup that’s when these sports science tools will be well used.”

Dale White has been re-appointed as senior assistant coach with Tony McKay team manager, Martyn Ashton will coordinate the sports science data, Jamie Paterson is reserves coach and Sophie Griffiths has been re-appointed head physio.

The club is in talks with Brad Zealley as a replacement goalkeeping coach for Peter Blasby who has joined Bentleigh Greens.

Late last season Mornington received an international clearance from Greece for 36-year old central defender Stylianos Maistrellis, who boasts a stint with AEK Athens on his CV, however it’s believed that he no longer figures in the club’s plans.
