Books club

STUDENTS at Patterson River Secondary College are facing a ban on technology in school this week but it not a punishment for any misdemeanour.

The ‘ban’ on mobile phones, iPads and laptops in the school library is a way for students to rediscover the joy of the printed word on the page during the Children’s Book Council organised Book Week (22-25 August) in partnership with state government.

The week, dubbed ‘Lit Fest’ at Patterson Secondary, will be an interesting technology separation experience for some students who have known nothing else than a time when reading on glowing screens is prevalent.

‘Stories around the campfire’, a competition matching teachers with their favourite books and collaborative story writing activities as part of book making fun will be part of Book Week at the school.

See cbca.org.au/book-week-2016 for further information on Book Week and activities for school students.

Council saved from sack Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au ALL nine of Frankston’s councillors have been saved from being stood down next month after the state government intervened in the aftermath of an administrative blunder by Frankston Council.

Several councillors and councils across the state, including all Frankston councillors, faced the axe (‘All councillors face sack’, The Times 5/8/16) with effect from 1 September for missing a 4 July deadline to sign a new councillor

code of conduct, as part of a state government instigated review of the Local Government Act. The new code of conduct, flagged late last year, is aimed at improving councillors’ behaviour although some councillors across Victoria believe it is also an attempt to stifle debate since councillors will not be allowed to criticise the voting decisions of fellow councillors at public council meetings.

Frankston mayor Cr James Dooley confirmed council had “technically breached” Local Government Investigations and Compliance Inspectorate requirements when signing and sub-

mitting councillors’ completed documentation to abide by the new code of conduct.

Frankston councillors faced disqualification from office from 1 September, as first revealed by The Times, since council CEO Dennis Hovenden did not witness their signatures on documents submitted to the inspectorate.

“At the end of the day, the councillors gave their oath that they would abide by the code of conduct. It is the oath that is important, not the CEO’s signature.

To suggest otherwise is bureaucratic nonsense,” Cr Dooley said on Saturday.

Premier Daniel Andrews said last

week that several councils “failed to comply with the law of our state” but the Labor state government stepped in so councillors are not disqualified “in the interests of ratepayers”.

Acting Local Government Minister Richard Wynne, the state Minister for Planning, subsequently said a new deadline of 22 February next year will be granted to councillors to avoid administrators being called in to run 13 councils who failed to comply and properly sign the revised code of conduct before the July deadline.

“Our ultimate consideration here is ensuring residents don’t have to pay for

MASSIVE CLEARANCE

to make way for new Spring Collections

the administrative mistakes made by their local councils,” Mr Wynne said in a statement.

“The councils have admitted themselves to gross incompetence in not meeting this simple requirement, and they have asked the government for a solution to ensure ratepayers don’t suffer as a result of these mistakes.

“Communities should be able to rely on their elected councillors to behave with the utmost integrity and professionalism at all times, so it’s important they abide by codes of conduct that reflect these values.”

No school nudes in sight on site Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THERE were no photos of girls attending Frankston area schools on a website targeting Australian schoolgirls as part of a vile trade of nude snaps of women without their knowledge.

The overseas-hosted site where people publicly swapped images of nude women was reportedly set up in December and taken offline Friday (19 August) amid fears underage girls’ private photos sent to friends or boyfriends were subsequently exposed to the online world.

While a person posting on the site last

week specifically sought nude photos of students from two Frankston area schools The Times understands none were ever uploaded to the site.

Another person asked for any nude pictures of students from a third Frankston area school, but again there was no response to the request on the comments thread online.

The site, which The Times has chosen not to name, was reported to Victorian and interstate authorities by women disgusted that private photos were published without their consent.

Male visitors to the site hunted for nude photos by naming women and in

some cases listing their home suburb on the website in an attempt to solicit pictures.

Queensland Police confirmed on Wednesday (17 August) they had investigated the site.

“While we have not received any formal complaints, we are working with our interstate colleagues, the Australian Federal Police and the eSafety Commissioner and have conducted an initial investigation into the origin of the site,” Detective Superintendent Cheryl Scanlon, of the Child Safety and Sexual Crimes Group, said in a statement.

“We believe the site is hosted over-

seas and does not appear to contain any child exploitation material.”

Victoria Police said it will not comment on specific cases but did confirm a Joint Anti-Child Exploitation Team is investigating.

The Victorian Department of Education is helping police with enquiries.

“It is disgraceful to see Victorian students being targeted by this highly inappropriate website,” spokesman Alex Munro said. “The online exploitation of young people is a very serious issue that can have serious ramifications for those involved.”

Mr Munro said support would be

available for any students at schools named on the site if needed and people should report inappropriate photos published online to police.

Some photos were deleted from the site by users after its existence was reported elsewhere but there is no evidence at this stage that any of those images featured students attending Frankston area schools. n Call Crimestoppers on 1800 333 000 or the Child Protection Helpline on 132 111 with any information about the site.

Anyone suffering sexual assault or exploitation can call 1800 RESPECT and Kids Helpline 1800 55 1800 for support.

Arts centre marketer moves on IT’S the people that Frankston Arts Centre marketing head Gillian Thompson will miss the most when she finishes up at the centre on Friday (26 August) but the shows must go on.

The business development and marketing coordinator has decided to leave and strike out on her own after nearly a decade in the job.

She has seen many positive changes to the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula arts scene over the years.

“The thing is a lot of art type people live on the peninsula and we’re renowned for our art. We’re doing lots of groovy things. People love it. It’s just something different.

“It’s actually a wrench to leave. It’s a great team here. It’s a lot of hard work but whoever gets the job is very lucky.”

She moved to Australia from England ten years ago and initially didn’t plan to “work for someone else” rather than set-up her own business but the theatre lover felt the Frankston Arts Centre gig looked too good to ignore and planned “to give it two years”.

Personal show highlights over the journey include circus dance spectacle Circa (“Beyond belief brilliant, Beautiful and challenging”) and an Australian Ballet production of Bolero (“Outstanding and fantastic”).

As for marketing the arts, she notes the rise of social media has brought the arts closer to audiences.

“I think we’re far more vibrant now. When I first started there were only about 3000 people on the database and that’s at 90,000 now. The first year I was there was when Facebook started so we got onboard with that.”

As she looks forward to her next challenge there is a bit of advice for her eventual successor in the marketing role.

“The biggest challenge for anyone walking into this role is working for council. If you’re from a commercial environment you’ve got to get to know bits and pieces about council,” she said.

“You’ve also never got enough time but we’re very much a ‘glass full’ team here.

Looking ahead: Gillian Thompson is leaving Frankston Arts Centre after nearly a decade.

Picture: Gary Sissons

Everyone’s optimistic and we always want to deliver the absolute best we can to our audiences.”

Frankston Council CEO Dennis Hovenden wished her well before her departure.

“In the time Gill has been at Frankston Arts Centre, she has been a dynamo of positive energy, bringing fantastic new ideas to light, working hard while providing plenty of laugh-

ter and smiles along the way.

“We have all appreciated Gill’s willingness to embrace new and different approaches towards promoting the activities, shows and programs offered at the Frankston Arts Centre.

“On behalf of council and the local arts community, I would like to sincerely thank Gill for her many years of dedication and wish her the best for a bright and successful future.”

Thompson says she now wants to work with companies to help them understand great customer experiences are vital to building a company’s brand.

“This has been a dream job but my next dream job is going freelance for a while. I’m going to see what opportunities are out there.”

Boy bailed again on violence charges Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au A 12-YEAR-OLD Seaford boy charged with armed robbery and assault, after allegedly setting a girl’s hair on fire while bashing and stealing her phone, has been bailed again by the same magistrate who warned him at his previous court appearance that he was on his “last, last chance”.

The attack on the 15-year-old girl at a Frankston skate park, 9pm, Friday 5 August, sickened even sea-

soned detectives as the accused and six alleged co-offenders had lured the girl to the park on the pretext of being her friend.

There they intimidated her before allegedly attacking her with the cigarette lighter, punching her in the face and kicking her in the face and body.

While the girl was on the ground the boy allegedly stole her bag and mobile phone (‘Attackers set girl’s hair on fire’, The Times 15/8/16).

The girl managed to run home and tell her parents who called police.

She was taken to Frankston Hospital

with a fractured right hand, swelling and bruising to her face and body and singed hair.

The detective investigating the case said the boy had already faced children’s courts on six previous occasions for similar offences and “couldn’t care less about consequences because there are none”.

He is scheduled to appear at a court tomorrow, Tuesday 23 August, to answer the charges.

The detective said the boy had previously been bailed in March on three counts of car theft, robbery and

attempted robbery. He has also faced court on multiple counts of burglary and theft – including theft of a bicycle, theft from cars, deception using stolen credit cards, and criminal damage to a car and a building under construction.

After the alleged attack on the girl, the boy’s legal aid team made yet another bail application – his seventh successful application.

A 13-year-old Langwarrin boy, charged over the same attack on the girl, refused to attend court, so his matters were further adjourned.

When healthy additives aren’t enough

Changed hands: Sages Cottage in Baxter has been sold to Wallara Australia which will use the farm for training programs for adults with different abilities.

New role for cottage SAGES Cottage Farm, Baxter, has been bought by not-for-profit service Wallara Australia to expand its training services for adults with different abilities.

The not-for-profit organisation had been leasing the 38-acre property for the past three years from Menzies, a support service for disadvantaged youth. It aims to carry forward its vision for the farm and support some of the most vulnerable people in the community.

“We’ve already engaged with Rotary, Frankston RSL, Brockhoff Foundation, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and a number of corporates, all of whom are assisting us with the development of the site and the innovative programs and activities we are able to offer adults with disabilities,” Wallara’s Karen Scholey said.

Training programs for those at nearby special schools were offered

by Wallara last year and the farm has quickly become the agency’s fastest growing site, with 24 young people based there.

They build independent living skills through innovative programs on the farm or in the community, and there is a long waiting list for an extra 10 places from January, Ms Scholey said.

Another farm feature is the property’s suitability for weddings and functions which earn income to offset operating costs.

A partnership with caterer Going Gourmet has turned the rustic barn into a popular wedding venue.

Every function at Sages Cottage helps support Wallara’s training programs.

It aims to make the property more accessible to people of all abilities and expand its facilities so more adults can live there and take part in innovative programs and activities.

PARENTS who think “healthy” foods are better for their children’s health and behaviour should learn more about food labels, warns additive campaigner and researcher Sue Dengate.

Ms Dengate is speaking at Mornington Secondary College, 7-9pm, Monday 29 August, at the request of Mt Martha dietitian and nutritionist Joey De Backer, who is happy to share her experiences and that of her daughter Isla in the struggle against allergies.

“My daughter was a colicky baby, waking every hour overnight, often crying inconsolably and kicking her legs, and then she developed eczema when we introduced solids and always had rosy red, scabby, pimply cheeks,” Ms De Backer said.

“As a dietitian, I knew food could be causing these issues and so we cut out dairy foods early on, but that only helped a little bit.

“When Isla was 20 months I read Sue’s book Fed Up and realised food chemicals must be the problem.

“We did an elimination diet and within three weeks her eczema went from weeping, itchy and red to completely healed with no visible traces.

Her sleep and behaviour improved immeasurably, she was a different child. And my partner’s hay fever disappeared, too.”

Ms Dengate says identifying and finding harmful additives and foods containing them can be difficult: “Parents really need to know what to look for.”

Dangerous additives may appear surreptitiously: “There’s a yellow tide of natural colour annatto 160b coming into our food which has been linked to a wide range of problems, including headaches, tantrums and headbanging in young children.

Adults can be affected, too.”

Different child: Joey De Backer and daughter Isla are reaping the rewards of an improved diet.

Up to 129 “natural” substitutes for MSG are also hidden in foods and can affect consumers of all ages, she said.

“The bread preservative 282 is increasingly disguised as cultured dextrose or cultured anything in breads and wraps, even though it can cause irritability, fatigue or insomnia in children and adults.

“Reactions to additives build up slowly, so most parents don’t realise they or their children are affected.

“When the family avoids additives for a few weeks parents are often

amazed to see that their children are calmer, happier, sleeping better and doing better at school – and they themselves often feel better, too.”

Some people can even be affected by natural food chemicals in healthy foods, like berries or tomato-based sauces, she said.

Shadow’s focus on warrants

Meet The (Bootleg) Beatles Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THERE can never be a reunion of The Beatles but the closest modern fans of the most influential band of the 1960s and beyond, after they split, can see the next best thing in Frankston early next month.

The Bootleg Beatles, widely regarded by fans and music critics as the best Beatles tribute band in the world, will play the Frankston Arts Centre on Sunday 4 September and ‘Paul McCartney’, also known as Steve White, is looking forward to the show.

The 47-year-old joined The Bootleg Beatles about five years ago replacing original Paul who retired after two decades on the road.

Right-handed White learned to play bass left handed, such is the band’s dedication to giving Beatles fans a gig-going experience as close to the real thing as possible.

“I practiced for ages and ages and eventually made the switch. The first gig I did playing left handed was awful, I was absolutely terrible. After I came off stage I said I’m never doing that again … but someone came up to me and said ‘it’s great to see a left-handed Paul’ and they thought it was great.”

White says he played in another 1960s covers band before being approached to join the bootleg Fab Four alongside ‘John Lennon’ (Adam Hastings), ‘George Harrison’ (Stephen Hill) and ‘Ringo Starr’ (Gordon Elsmore) but basically “played the John Lennon part, despite looking a lot like Paul, since he is originally a rhythm guitarist.

“Every show we turned up to, as soon as they saw me they said ‘oh, you’ve got to be Paul’ so eventually over time me and the bass player decided to swap over.”

Music fans who turn up see The Bootleg Beatles

The long and winding road: The Bootleg Beatles will play Frankston as part of an Australian tour.

in Frankston can look forward to a full Beatles show featuring songs, band costumes and stage projections from every stage of the iconic band’s career and will hear some songs the originals themselves didn’t perform since they effectively stopped being a touring band in 1966 shortly before releasing the classic Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album filled with layers of sonic trickery produced in the studio.

“Obviously, there’s a staple of hits we have to do since the majority of people are, I guess, casual fans,” White said.

“I could name 100 favourite Beatles song. I do tend to favour Ticket to Ride because I feel that was the start of when the music started to become more self-indulgent and was kind of on the cusp of when things were shifting from the happy go lucky pop song to more contemporary music. It was so different to anything that came before it.

“And Twist and Shout lifts the roof and also Hey Jude is one of those that’s a massive anthem.”

White hasn’t meet Paul McCartney but he says the original incarnation of The Bootleg Beatles, who also supported UK Britpop rock ‘n’ roll stars Oasis on tour in their 1990s glory days, did catch

up with McCartney and George Harrison on a few occasions.

“George asked ‘Who is the Bootleg Brian Epstein? Because he’s got all the money’,” White said. “McCartney told The Bootleg Beatles who were also playing the Queen’s Jubilee concert ‘not to play Hey Jude because I’m playing it’.”

It’s a full-time gig playing gigs around the globe as the bootleg Fab Four but White feels lucky to follow in the footsteps of The Beatles since he has been a huge fan of the band since the age of 8 when he remembers “playing their albums back to back over and over again and really, really loving it”.

He urges Beatles fans in the Frankston area to come together for an evening of shared Beatlemania next month.

“Come along one and all, old and young, and let’s have a big party together.” n The Bootleg Beatles play the Frankston Arts Centre on Sunday 4 September, 8pm. Tickets for the 2 hour 15 minute show, including interval, are $65.50, $55.50 (FAC members and concession), $45 (under 16s), $55 each (groups of 10+). See artscentre.frankston.vic.gov.au or call FAC 9784 1060.

SHADOW Taskforce members “have continued to make a difference in crime reduction”, says Frankston Senior Sergeant Phillip Hulley.

“Currently our focus is on the execution of warrants – often from public information,” he said.

“Some of our local offenders have already had impromptu visits from police armed with search warrants.”

Senior Sergeant Hulley said the Shadow team would be focusing on executing warrants for those who have failed-to-appear at court. “If anyone in the community has failed to attend court it’s likely that they will now have an outstanding arrest warrant,” he said.

“Often these arrest warrants give police the power to search and use force, if necessary, to find those named in the warrant.

“Those who have a failed to appear are not forgotten about. It would be an advantage to these people to attend a police station to have the outstanding warrant executed as often such action is viewed favourably by the courts.

“Taking proactive action can increase the chances of being re-bailed as opposed to being remanded in police custody pending the next sitting of the court. People just need to take responsibility for their actions.”

He said smart phone users should key in their court date in their calendar function. “If you have an upcoming court date attend it – otherwise a warrant will be issued and you could find yourself arrested and, worse, remanded in a cell pending the next court day sitting.”

Grub’s up for all at waterfront FRANKSTON’S waterfront playground is now home to a newly designed all-abilities access barbecue which was officially launched last week with a sizzle and bangers.

Mayor Cr James Dooley said the design of the innovative barbecue will allow people confined to a wheelchair to safely cook at the foreshore.

“This new all-abilities barbecue is a great way to ensure people with a disability feel included in their community, especially when enjoying time with family and friends,” said the Mayor.

“In Frankston we acknowledge diversity and the benefits of an inclusive community, which is why I am delighted we have been able to deliver this important project.”

The barbecue joins many established accessible services and facilities on offer across Frankston, including use of

a free beach wheelchair, direct access to boardwalk and availability of Recharge points at the Frankston Visitor Information Centre Christie Parksafe director Alex Christie said the great Aussie tradition of barbecues should be for everyone.

“The A-Series barbecue truly is a first to ensure the hotplate is out of reach of little fingers while still allowing access for wheelchair users.”

Cr Dooley said: “It is fantastic to see this company based in Carrum Downs giving back to the community and we are delighted they have selected Frankston as the location to showcase this new product.

“We welcome these types of creative and community minded business ideas and we look forward to seeing this new feature being used.”

Former racehorse jumps into new career RETIRED racehorse Tarawera enjoyed being put through his paces by triequithon participant Seumas Marwood at Coolart Farm, Tuerong, on Wednesday.

The 11-year-old racer was formerly trained by Fran Houlahan and Brian Johnston at Mornington Racecourse until they retired last month. His wins included the Australian and Crisp steeplechases.

Now in retirement, Tarawera has transitioned as an equestrian eventer, which combines dressage, cross country and show jumping. His next race is in Racing Victoria’s Off the Track Triequithon, Caulfield, Saturday 27 August.

The event aims to “shine a light on life after racing” for older racehorses, and gives aspiring and well-heeled riders the chance to compete for a $15,000 prize pool.

Marwood, of Pakenham, regularly brings Tarawera to Coolart Farm to brush up on his jumping skills under the watchful eye of former Olympic show jumper and property owner Jamie Coman.

Coman is considered one of the country’s top show jumping coaches who has a long association with Off the Track thoroughbreds.

Council avoids the chop Continued from Page 1 Both council and the inspectorate refused to confirm the signatures stuff-up when approached by The Times earlier this month, preferring to wait until an inspectorate audit of all documentation submitted by 79 councils across Victoria was completed on Friday 12 August.

Inspectorate chief municipal inspector David Wolf confirmed last Monday (15 August) that the audit found 13 of the state’s 79 councils, including Frankston, “have not complied with the requirements and those councillors and councils, under the current legislation, will be disqualified as of 1 September”.

The inspectorate confirmed 107 councillors across Victoria faced disqualification.

“Those councils will require administrators to be appointed for a seven-week period until the 2016 general council elections are decided,” Mr Wolf said in a statement

before the government’s intervention later in the week.

Council elections to elect councillors, held every four years, are due to be held this year on 22 October.

The inspectorate revealed last week the councils who failed to correctly submit signed documents were: Ballarat, Central Goldfields, Benalla, Campaspe, Cardinia, Greater Shepparton, Hobsons Bay, Frankston, Mount Alexander, Moyne, Queenscliffe, West Wimmera and Wyndham.

Mornington Peninsula Shire councillor Hugh Fraser was named as one of nine individual councillors at councils not included in the 13 councils facing sanction.

Cr Fraser signed the revised code of conduct but also wrote “signed under protest” on the document.

Three out of 107 councillors in Victoria, including Cr Fraser, who did not properly complete the paperwork formally expressed discontent

at the conditions of the new code.

None of the three dissenters are councillors at Frankston Council although The Times understands there was uncertainty over whether two councillors had signed the new code of conduct before the 4 July deadline.

Frankston Labor MP Paul Edbrooke slammed council for its “incompetence” over the code of conduct debacle but thanked Mr Wynne for giving councils a reprieve so ratepayers “will not be bearing the burden and footing the bill for the council’s mistake”.

“The new requirement to sign a code of conduct in front of the CEO within one month, which 66 of the 79 other councils were able to fulfil, was simple and very clear. Councils were advised on multiple occasions about this requirement,” he said in Parliament on Thursday last week.

“The vast majority of Victorian councillors were able to understand it.”

Mr Edbrooke said constituents had asked him why Frankston Council “cannot sign a document properly” and wondered why council should be let off the hook when people are fined for being “two minutes late getting back to my car in a council carpark”.

The MP said he did not want councillors to be removed but he urged ratepayers to think carefully at October’s council elections about who they vote for to represent Frankston.

“Many residents seem to think that it is indicative of the way our council approaches things. I have a stack of emails, unfortunately, calling for councillors to be sacked.”

Any new councillors elected on 22 October will have to sign a code of conduct within one month of taking office despite the new February deadline granted for existing councillors.

No witness: Frankston Council CEO Dennis Hovenden.

High school student wins prestigious award FRANKSTON High School Student and School Captain Reece Pellow has won the 2016 Annual Roy Ward Prize, one of two awards presented by the Order of Australia Association, Mornington Peninsula Regional Group.

The prize is granted to a secondary student in years 11 or 12, who has shown, both in his or her school, qualities of character, leadership and community service, which exemplify Australian citizenship, over an extended period.

Nominations were sent to 29 Schools in Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula.

All submissions were of a very high standard and illustrated the depth of talent and commitment of young people in the region.

The selection panel’s unanimously decided the submission from Reece Pellow and his impressiveness during the selection interview, warranted his selection as the 2016 Roy Ward Prize winner.

His submission highlights included Reece’s leadership roles at Frankston High School from year 9 through to becoming school captain this year, and participation in the Australian Defence Force Long Tan Youth Leadership and Teamwork Award, a leader and team

member in Frankston High School’s World Challenge Trip to India, participating in village life and improvements in several locations across India.

Reece has hands on experience in living with people with disability and special needs. His commitment to service to others extends beyond the activities organised by the school with Reece intimately involved in Riding for the Disabled at Mornington Racecourse and “busking” to raise money for The Riding for the Disabled Association of Australia.

The money raised has been used to widen the organisation’s services and buy specialised equipment.

Reece has been training assistance dogs for the past 24 months and has been a speaker at Monash University to the third year nursing and paramedic students and at the Australian Centre for Grief on the topic of “what it is like growing up with a disabled sister”.

The Order of Australia Association, Mornington Peninsula Group is grateful for the support of Spowers Architects in their sponsorship of the School Awards Program.

LETTERS ‘Underwhelming’ budget I was interested in what this year’s council budget would look like, especially in light of the state government-imposed 2.5 per cent rates capping initiative coming into full effect. What I saw was little creative thinking and a budget that – for an election year – attempts to not make waves. All this approach does is handball the hard decisions on to the next council and exacerbates the fiscal health of the city.

I question the council’s wisdom in gutting the Capital Works Program (building new structures – sports clubs, libraries, playgrounds etc) in favour of ‘asset renewal’ works from $25 million to $15 million. For a municipality nearing 130,000 residents, delaying new or projected public works creates a backlog as public works must keep up with the pace of population growth.

The councillors and bureaucrats claim the state government’s mandatory capping initiative is now forcing council ‘to live within its means’ but, ideally, the council should have been living within its means well before the government implemented statewide capping. The fact council faces a $43 million budget shortfall over the next five years is a testament to the lack of longterm planning to prepare for the implementation of rates capping.

Despite the numerous public service cuts, there is next to no real reduction in the formal council workforce. The CEO is on public record stating that further “operations” (i.e. services) face the axe in the coming years, but there is no mention of real staff reductions to offset service cuts. This doesn’t make sense. Since when has the Frankston City Council workforce, paid for by the public, been more important than funding public services?

The absence of a meaningful strategy to cauterise growing debt in quick fashion is not good fiscal management and this should be a priority but seemingly isn’t. Since the election of this council, every year the council has borrowed millions in loans. To date, the city currently owes $37 million to lenders. If this debt is not addressed, it will impact on future generations;

Protest for refugees COMMUNITY groups including Love Makes A Way, a Christian grassroots protest movement against Australia’s “appalling” treatment of asylum seekers, gathered early on Wednesday morning for a vigil at Frankston train station to mark the release of more than 2000 leaked incident reports from Australia’s detention centre on Nauru. The 2116 reports in the files, more than half involving children, were published by Guardian Australia last week and detail assaults, sexual abuse, self-harm attempts and child abuse in squalid living conditions. Protesters posted large paper dolls at the train station as a symbol of the children held in detention at Nauru. They then made their way to federal Dunkley Liberal MP Chris Crewther’s office to peacefully ask that Australia’s offshore detention centres be immediately shut down.

Mr Crewther’s office did not respond before publication to a request asking if he agreed Nauru should be closed.

Picture: Gary Sissons and the delivery of services that the public expects and pays for.

This year’s budget plays it safe and fails to address some of the more pressing fiscal matters impacting rates and services – it doesn’t seek to boldly dent the city’s burgeoning debt, it doesn’t seek to bolster ‘rainy day’ reserves to cater for budgetary emergencies (such as natural disasters, superannuation payouts, litigation costs etc.), it doesn’t introduce a long-term rates structure plan that forecasts residential rates below the 2.5 per cent mandatory cap, it doesn’t look to sell or lease unused or stagnant council assets to cover increasing costs, it doesn’t increase the production of capital/public works and – frankly - it does not cut enough internal waste such as bloated wages, consultancy fees and discretionary expenditure within the organisation.

Kris Bolam, former Frankston mayor

Time for the truth As taxpayers and concerned citizens of the Mornington Peninsula, we would like to know what our government knows about the living

conditions of asylum seekers and refugees on Nauru.

We are entitled to be adequately informed because of the threats to the health of these children, families and adults, as well as Australia’s international reputation.

Blaming of other organisations is not an acceptable answer.

The Labor opposition should also tell us what it intends to do about the situation.

It is a bipartisan responsibility requiring urgent action.

It is time that the Prime Minister and his ministers act on the intolerable situation in our refugee detention centres.

It is time to open these centres to proper public scrutiny and review. And time to settle refugees in Australia to contribute to our economy and community life.

Ann and Peter Renkin, Shoreham

Children in danger After watching the last Q&A, on our beloved ABC, it became clear to me that our children’s

future is in great danger from the conspiracy theorists of the ilk of [One Nation senator] Malcolm Roberts. Again we saw an old man playing down and even denying that there is any conceivable danger from climate change to our future.

To him and his likes, it is too inconvenient to change their ways of consumption and energy production, to enable future generations to have a reasonable chance of a halve ways decent life on this planet.

Thanks Malcolm Turnbull for making it almost inevitable for what I see as crackpots getting a stage to spread their delusional messages.

When will he call the next double dissolution of government, seeing this one went so well?

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Milk’s murky process Murray Goulburn, once a non-profit co-op for dairy farmers, becomes corporatised. Dairy farmers which were the reason for its very existence are placed second to shareholders.

Profit becomes the goal as the company loses direction. Global milk prices bottom out. The company in an unprecedented move demands that dairy farmers pay back “excessive” profits for milk which has already been sold as it reduces its prices to rock bottom unsustainable levels.

New Zealand dairy company Fonterra follows suite simply “because it can”. As our farmers go out of business, cashed up Chinese corporations buy up our farms to export milk, an absolute food staple, back to China following their own contaminated milk scandal.

Meanwhile Murray Goulburn’s former CEO walks away with $10 million.

Think what choice this will leave Australian families in future next time you buy a $1 a litre container of home brand milk from supermarkets which also don’t seem to give a damn about our dying industry. How can our politicians let this happen?

Frankston Times 22 August 2016

Long ride to deliver message of comfort Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au A CFA career firefighter is riding across Victoria to raise awareness of mental health as a result of his experience with depression.

Wangaratta-based operations officer Terry Heafield stopped off at Mornington fire station on Friday for morning tea and to speak of his experiences.

His told firefighters to seek help and not be ashamed if they were depressed. He said depression should be seen as an ailment, not a weakness.

The Mornington stopover was part of the Frankston to Rosebud leg of the trip which will take him 2500km through country towns and ending at Geelong where his brothers are also firefighters.

Heafield said he had gone undiagnosed with depression for a long time, with his family blaming the pressures of firefighting for his ill-temper and dark moods.

Now that things are out in the open, they are confident he is back on level ground, emotionally speaking.

His efforts have put much-needed focus into his life and wellbeing. “I cannot believe the support and interest that my ride has achieved,” Heafield said.

“My goal is to help just one person and not allow themselves to get to the point that I did.

“While this goal has already been achieved, I will continue to try and help others. The ride is a major step in my recovery as I would never have thought of doing anything like this in my life.

“I would like to have discussions with as many people as I can along the way and hope that everyone will get involved. I would like to hold discussions at locations where I will be resting for the night but am happy to do anything on the journey.”

The Facebook page Don’t Do It Alone allows people to make contact follow the ride.

Three-way crash

Firebomb explodes over offender POLICE are investigating a fire bombing in Frankston North, 7.40pm, Monday 15 August.

Senior Constable Jarrad Brookman, of Frankston CIU, said a man walked up the driveway of the Candlebark Crescent house holding a bottle filled with flammable liquid. However, when he lit the tip it exploded quickly, possibly badly burning his hands, face and hair, and spreading flames over a fence and car.

Anyone with information is asked to call Frankston CIU, 9784 5590.

A FOUR-wheel-drive, station wagon and truck collided in Baxter-Tooradin Rd, Langwarrin South, closing the road for an hour, Thursday.

The crash was near the intersection of Warrandyte, Grant, Golf Links and BaxterTooradin roads, Langwarrin South.

Baxter and Langwarrin CFA crews attended along with Mornington Peninsula Highway Patrol police and ambulance.

Senior Constable Raj Sharma said the driver of the station wagon was taken to hospital for observation.

ATO exposes dodgy deductions WITH over eight million Australians claiming work-related expenses each year, Assistant Commissioner Graham Whyte is reminding people to make sure they get their deductions right this tax time.

“Australians claim over $21 billion in workrelated expenses each year, and we want to support taxpayers to claim what they are entitled to – no more, no less,” Mr Whyte said.

“Most Australians want to do the right thing, but we are seeing mistakes, and while the amounts at an individual level are relatively small, collectively the overall impact is significant. That’s why, it is important for people to get their deductions right.

“From time to time we see people deliberately making incorrect claims. We’ve seen claims for car expenses where log books have been made up and claims for self-education expenses where invoices were supplied for conferences that the taxpayer never attended.

“Deliberately making incorrect claims is an

easy way to get into some serious trouble. It’s just not worth it.”

Mr Whyte said while most tax agents are there to help you do the right thing, sometimes the ATO identifies tax agents offering special deals, inflating claims to generate larger refunds.

“If it sounds too good to be true – it usually is. The ATO takes action against tax agents who make dodgy claims, but to protect yourself, make sure your tax agent is registered. You can check on the Tax Practitioners Board website.”

Mr Whyte said in 2014-15, the ATO conducted around 450,000 reviews and audits of individual taxpayers, leading to revenue adjustments of over $1.1 billion in income tax.

“Cases involved omitted income or overclaimed entitlements like deductions. This included people making claims significantly different to those made by taxpayers in similar circumstances,” Mr Whyte said.

“Every tax return is scrutinised using increasingly sophisticated tools and data analytics

developed by our ‘Data Doctors’ at the ATO. This means we can identify and review income tax returns that may omit information or contain unreasonable deductions.

“When a red flag is raised, our staff investigates further and if your claims seem unusual we will check them with your employer.

“If you’ve made a mistake, this will hold up the processing of your tax return, so it’s best to make sure you claim the right deductions from the start.”

My Whyte said this year the ATO has introduced real-time checks of deductions for tax returns completed online.

“If your claims are substantially higher than others in similar occupations, earning similar amounts of income, a message will appear, asking you to check them. This new process is just about helping you to make sure your claims are correct,” Mr Whyte said.

“If you are doing the right thing you have nothing to worry about.”

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Trooper’s message found in bottle Compiled by Melissa Walsh A TOMATO bottle was picked up on the beach a few days ago by Mr E. McComb, containing the following words. From the date on the note it has evidently been drifting about for a long time: “The finder would be doing a great service to me if he tell my mother (Mrs Sarratt, Claremont Avenue, Malvern) that all is well—Trooper Jas Sarratt, Albany, 29/10/14.” *** EX-COUNCILLOR G. Keast notifies in another column his reasons for not seeking re-election at the hands of the Centre Riding ratepayers. This advertisement was inadvertently omitted in our last issue. *** MR Marcus McBrodie ably conducted the auction of two laurel wreaths at the Scotch Concert on Saturday last.

This maiden effort of Mr McBrodie’s resulted in a substantial sum being raised for the Frankston District Soldiers’ Memorial Fund. *** THE public meeting convened by the advocates of 6 o’clock closing of hotels was held in the Frankston Mechanics’ hall on Thursday evening, at which there was a good attendance.

Mrs Beckett and Mr J. G. Barratt were the speakers. A report of the meeting will appear in our next issue. *** AT the evening given by the produce stall holders, on Wednesday night, the opal brooch, given by Miss McKenzie to he raffled for the Mt Eliza

Red Cross society, was drawn, and Miss Webster, of Malvern proved to be the holder of the winning ticket. *** AFTER being three and a half months in hospital, suffering from injuries received while in charge of an ammunition plant at Broadmeadows, Private A. G. Young has again been sent to that camp and is now attached to the 21st reinforcements of the 5th battalion of Infantry. *** THE annual meeting of the Frankston Athletic sports Club will be held in the Mechanics’ Hall on Friday 8th September at 6 o’clock when a full attendance of members is requested. *** SOME time during the performance at the Frankston Hall on Saturday evening some low down specimens of humanity crept into the room at the back of the hall, where the ladies had laid out light refreshments for the performers to partake of at the conclusion of the programme, and stole all the sandwiches and decorations on the table.

This sort of thing is despicably mean and paltry, and the persons who indulge in them are in a fair way to land ultimately in gaol. *** THE following letter has been received by the hon. sec, of the Australian Club:-Dear Miss McComb, please convey to members of your club my hearty appreciation of their kind thoughtfulness in presenting to the Langwarrin Camp Hospital the

towels, pillowslips, etc.

These articles all help to make the poor fellows comfortable. It is not easy to find people showing such true Christian benevolence and such little acts make our efforts in the men’s behalf worthwhile.

Again thanking you, I am Yours truly, I. Blezard, Major. *** IN a paragraph appearing on the 5th inst in our columns referring to winners in the Victorian Poultry and Kennel Clubs Show held recently a slight error occurred in mentioning Messrs Taylor and Brand’s awards. It should have read: They not only secured 1st prize for farmers’ trio, with Plymouth Rocks in the Utility Class, but first prize for best utility hen in the open class against all breeds and second prize for White Leghorn cockerel.

The above mentioned hen being a white leghorn purchased from W. Aisbhett “Lynwood Poultry Farm” Langwarrin, who also possesses the father of the 2nd prize cockerel. *** THE I.O.R. social tens No 151 Frankston, held its quarterly meeting on Monday Aug 14th. In spite of bad weather about 30 members were present. During the quarter two Amore of our members have enlisted for active service.

There is about 2400 from Victoria serving for King and Country. There has been a steady increase of members for the quarter. Three more candidates were proposed last meeting.

A resolution was passed that we invite the Rev H. Warrall down to address a public meeting in Frankston regarding closing of Liquor Bars and the secretary was instructed to call a public meeting of the trustees reinvesting in the war loan.

Various other items were brought forward, and after business the members retired to the anti-room, where supper was arranged by the sister members.

After justice had been done to this part of the program, games were indulged in. A very enjoyable evening was spent. During the evening the C.R. on behalf of the tent, presented Brother F. Girdleston with a travelling bag on his departure from Frankston. *** THE Frankston Court of Petty Sessions was held on Monday last, before Mr Cohen, p.m., and Messrs Williams, Oates, Clemaens and Grant J.P. Two cases of alleged breaches of the Licensing Act were heard.

The first one was that of the licensee of the Bay View Hotel, who was charged, by the police, with supplying drink to other than a traveller, on the 30th July.

Mr Brayshay appeared for defendant. From the evidence adduced it appears that the accused had taken the necessary precautions before supplying the drink, and she was led to believe that the man supplied was a bona fide traveller. The bench therefore dismissed the case.

The licensee of the Half Way

House, Carrum, was then charged with illegal traffic in liquor on 23rd July last. Mr Meagher appeared for the defense.

A number of witnesses for and against, were heard and the Bench ultimately decided that the case had been proved, and a fine of 40s was imposed.

On a charge of having her bar door open on 30th July accused pleaded guilty, and was fined 7£. *** THE news of the death of Mr C Blythe came as a shock to the residents of Frankston on Monday evening, when it became known that he had expired at the residence of his son-in law, Mr P. Wheeler, from internal hemorrhage.

Though the deceased gentleman has been somewhat of an invalid for the past 8 or 9 months, he has been able to get about and seemed to be improving, and his death came most unexpectedly.

He filled the position of stationmaster at Frankston about 24 years ago, and was well known to the older residents. Prior to his illness he filled the responsible position of pier master at Williamstown, but since then he has resided with Mr Wheeler, at Frankston. The remains were conveyed by motor hearse to Williamstown on Thursday, where he was buried alongside his wife, who predeceased him about 12 months. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 26 August, 1916

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Farewell to the snow globe of my youth

By Stuart McCullough I’M sure it’s not just me. Even though I’m so far into adulthood that I’m in danger of bursting out the other side, it’s fair to say that I’m yet to move out of my parents’ house. Not completely.

Instead, my old bedroom in Tyabb remains a repository of items that I have deemed both too important to throw away and yet not nearly important enough to take with me. They sit on shelves and are stuffed in cupboards, silently waiting for the day when I finally decide their collective fate. As a result, these items have languished for decades.

Physically, I left that house in my teens. Since then, I’ve lived at various addresses in a variety of circumstances; and each one of them was home for a time. But there’s nothing quite like the house you grew up in. Whether it’s a lack of organization on my part or an attempt to keep one foot in a distinctly distant camp, I can’t say. All I know is that, after more than twenty years, the excuses are starting to wear a little thin.

There are books, lots of them. These include activity workbooks from French class that may well contain homework I ought to have submitted in about 1986. If I were to attempt to hand these in now, chances are I’d be escorted from the premises rather than congratulated. Tempting as it may be to make one final appeal to have my mark reviewed in the hope of being bumped up from a ‘B’ to an ‘A’, it’s time to let that dream go. Besides, were I to attempt to submit my homework now, the teacher might ask me a question in French, thereby revealing

PAGE 22

Frankston Times

that I have failed to retain anything more than a few stray Serge Gainsbourg lyrics and the chorus of Plastic Bertrand’s ‘Ca Plane Pour Moi’.

There are prizes too. These I largely

22 August 2016

accumulated in the early part of my high school career before they dramatically petered out. Mostly they’re in the form of novels but there are a couple of trophies too, denoting im-

probable sporting prowess. Without exception these are suitably miniscule.

The sports trophies are located not in my old bedroom but my father’s study, together with the assembled product of his own athletic career which, to date, consists of a medallion (I’m not sure for what. Probably car-pooling) and a plaster figurine of a bloke with his leg raised in a pose I’d describe as ‘post torpedo punt’. By congregating the awards won by the entire family, my father hoped it would look impressive. It doesn’t. Even less so since one of my nephews started to over-achieve and collect trophies that tower like skyscrapers over our meager statuettes.

As for the books, they were items I’d chosen at Robinson’s Book Store.

In a sense, they were the worst kind of gift. I was charged with the awesome responsibility of selecting the present that the school would then give back to me. Accordingly, I felt an overwhelming responsibility to choose something that was suitably intellectual rather than anything that might trigger a recount. There was a volume of Dickens so large that it required a forklift.

Despite the fact that it was beautiful, it was impractical. In fact, so many of Charles’s works were contained in a single book it meant the print was so necessarily small that even an ant would have struggled to read it.

Then there are the souvenirs. These are last remains of various family outings purchased with significant budgetary limits and a looming time constraint. It was common for us to be informed that we had five dollars and just as many minutes in which to select

an item from the gift shop by which to remember the moment for the rest of our lives. The results were predictably uneven. In Tasmania I bought a sculpture of an old lady’s face carved into an old apple. The years saw it plunge further into a state of decrepitude until it collapsed. There was also the snow-globe that I bought at Mount Buffalo (money, incidentally, I should have spent on a hot chocolate). The intervening years have seen the water evaporate and the snow vanish. I blame climate change.

Often I received a book for Christmas. Each of these has a message from my father in handwriting that is not so much messy as it is encrypted. I’m not sure what these messages mean, but I’m not yet prepared to give them up.

Some books are about subjects I have long since abandoned including cricket, rock collecting and gunfighters of the Wild West. Beside these tomes is a rabbit’s foot. It too was a gift, intended to bring good luck, although presumably not for the rabbit.

Soon, the hour will come. The umbilical connection that has so long ensured that part of me remains in Tyabb will be severed. Some things I will keep. Others will be sent to the great hard-rubbish night in the sky, never to be seen again. So long droughtaffected snow globe. Farewell rabbit’s foot. I’ll be sure to leave something behind, though. Perhaps a book tucked discretely on a shelf or my ‘most improved’ football trophy. A sense of place is a powerful thing. There will, I think, always be part of me in Tyabb. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Eagles pull off a miracle PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt EDITHVALE-ASPENDALE pulled off one of the most amazing results in memory on Saturday when it held on to draw against Frankston YCW and subsequently, snatch a last gasp spot in the top five.

The Eagles broke a four game losing streak to pull off the draw, a result that was a long way from anyone’s wildest imagination prior to the match.

Edithvale-Aspendale had struggled with injuries and lost its place in the top bracket at the hands of Seaford.

Having to beat top of the table YCW was remote and although Seaford was odds-on to lose to Mt Eliza, there was little chance the Eagles could wrest back their position in the five.

However, despite the ball spending 80 per cent of its time in the YCW forward half in the tense final quarter, the home side was somehow able to prevent the opposition from scoring enough to grab victory.

The game seemed to be going to script in the first half when, despite the Eagles playing some good footy, the visitors led by 15 points at the main break.

The Eagles though, through the likes of star players Mark Mullins, Jeremy Heys and Stevey Mannix, got their nose in front in the third term with three unanswered goals.

Edithvale had 22 scoring shots to YCW’s 17 and outscored the Stonecats 5.5 to 3.2 in the second half.

The final score was YCW 10.7 (67) to Edithvale 9.13 (67).

The draw came on the back of the announcement earlier in the week that Stonecats coach Scott Mathers would not seek reappointment for the top job in 2017.

The Stonecats were on the phone to at least three prospects early in the week, including premiership coaches Tony Blackford and Gavin Artico.

Despite winning though, the draw was as good as a win for Edithvale.

Seaford was only two points clear of Edithvale going into the final round after they gave up a five goal three quarter time lead against Karingal earlier in the year to hold on for a draw.

The Eagles will play neighbour Bonbeach in the cut throat elimination final on Sunday at Frankston Park af-

Dog’s day: Mornington dispatched Karingal by 59 points. Picture: Scott Memery

ter the Sharks finished in fourth place on the ladder.

Bonbeach had a scrap against Langwarrin, scraping home by the smallest of margins.

The corresponding game earlier in the season was without question one of the worst spectacles for the season – this one wasn’t much better.

The Sharks led by 21 points at quarter time after kicking with the wind, led by three points at half time and by 15 at three quarter time.

The Kangas dominated the play in the last and prevented the Sharks from scoring, however, despite opportunities to win the game, Langwarrin failed by a point, 7.8 (50) to 7.9 (51).

Jackson Casey and Daniel Smith were superb for the Sharks while Nick

Tuddenham with three goals and Zach Andrewartha were very good for the Kangas.

Mornington continued its steam train ride to the very end with a 20.13 (133) to 10.14 (74) victory over Karingal.

The Doggies opened up a break in the opening quarter before getting eight goals in front in the second.

Jackson Calder, Stuey Seager and Dale Whelan all booted four goals for the Dogs while Ryan O’Dell dominated.

Chris Hay kicked six for the Bulls while Aaron Lees and Harry Czarnecki got the top votes.

The Bulls have formed a subcommittee and have begun the interview process for a new coach,

with former coach Bevan Malloy and former Mt Eliza coach John Georgiou believed to have thrown their hat into the ring.

Pines got back onto the winner’s list with a big 19.9 (117) to 9.17 (71) win against Chelsea.

The Pythons restricted the opposition to one goal in the opening half and led by 42 points at the main change.

The game opened up a little in the second hour with the Gulls kicking eight goals to Pines’ nine.

Michae Bezzene booted four goals for the Pythons in only his third game for the season while Aaron Ludewig and Brad Kiely were impressive also.

Grant Trew gets all the tough jobs for the Gulls and he was outstanding again while Curtis Bywater also

played one of his best games for the season.

Mt Eliza will go into the qualifying final against Pines without Dan Gromley after he was reported in the opening quarter of its match against Seaford.

The Redlegs booted five goals to one in the opening quarter and cruised to a 12.9 (81) to 4.11 (35) victory against the Tigers.

Gormley finished with a game high four goals for the Redlegs and Dave Barton and Harper leonard dominated.

Chris Murfett and Kyle Mathews were the best of the Tigers, who missed out on a final berth by percentage.

22 August 2016

By Toe Punt ROSEBUD made it nine wins in succession against Somerville in the qualifying final on Saturday, withstanding a last quarter surge to win by seven points.

For three and a half quarters at Red Hill Recreation Reserve, Rosebud completely dominated the Eagles.

However, trailing by five goals at three quarter time, the Eagles changed things around in the last term, won the ball on the outside and outscored Rosebud 4.6 to 1.1 to almost steal the match.

The momentum swung in the game when Rosebud gave away two free kicks in the goal square, resulting in two goals before the ball was taken back into the centre square.

Those two goals to coach David Hirst reduced the margin to nine points, then Tim McGennis booted a long bomb to reduce the margin to just three points with seven minutes left to play.

Somerville continued to dominate general play but could only manage a further two behinds, reducing the margin to just a point.

Then, for the first time for the quarter, Rosebud won the ball at half back, kicked the ball into space, Nick Boswell gathered and bounced his way to half forward before the ball ended up with the best player on the ground, Ben Dwyer, who kicked the sealer with just a minute on the clock.

The stranglehold that Rosebud has on Somerville dates back to 2013.

In that year, the Buds and Eagles met in round four (Rosebud by 19 points) and round 13 (Rosebud by 10 points) In 2014, they met in round eight, Rosebud winning by 65 points.

Both clubs missed the finals in 2013 and 2014.

In 2015, they met four times - in round six (Rosebud by 11 points), round 13 (Rosebud by 5 points), in the second semi (Rosebud by 16 points and the Grand Final, which Rosebud won by 20 points after trailing by eight points at three quarter time.

In 2016, we had to wait until Round 10 before we got the replay of the 2015 Grand Final.

Rosebud jumped out of the blocks on that day and kicked the first seven goals of the game, ending the contest at Olympic Park there and then.

After the first change, Rosebud just outscored Somerville 7.9 to 7.8.

Rosebud was all over Somerville in the first three quarters.

They were more committed to the contest, calmer under pressure, cleaner with their disposal and worked together as a team a whole lot better.

The 28 point half time lead and 30 point three quarter time lead was justification for the hard work.

Rhys Bancroft, Ryan Spooner, Dale Stephens and Brenton Payne worked tirelessly through the middle, along with Dywer, who again had the bet-

ter of Justin Farrelly, Chris Zurek, Seb Krumeich, Matt Baker, Brenton Davidge, Chris Dew and Nick Boswell all led the backline and the likes of Keegan Downie and Daniel Wilson looked dangerous in attack.

The Buds were all over the Eagles and to make matters worse, none of the ‘stars’ for Somerville were having any impact.

Desperate changes needed to be made by Somerville and they were simply made too later.

Trailing Rosebud by 28 points at half time, the Eagles needed to produce Plan B. They waited until three quarter time to get dangerous and adventurous.

Scott Simpson was outstanding for the duration for the Eagles across half back but he should have been swung into the ruck or up forward much sooner than he was.

Luke Collie did a great job on Keegan Downie, restricting him to just one goal, while Adrian Speedy was the best run and carry player for the Eagles.

The facts are that the Somerville brand is not good enough to beat Rosebud. If they get the chance again, the Eagles need to change it up and be unpredictable.

They may not get that chance!

On Sunday in the elimination final, Hastings led from early in the second quarter to the finish to knock Red Hill out of the 2016 premiership race.

However, the 10.12 (72) to 7.9 (51) victory came at a price for the Blues with ruckman Josh Mulheron being aided from the field with what appeared to be an ankle or knee injury, while key forward Colin McVeigh was reported in the last quarter for striking and was offered a mandatory two week ban.

The Blues were disciplined and well-coached, preventing the HIllmen from playing on, protecting the corridor, pressing up at the half backs and getting numbers back behind the footy.

Red Hill dominated the inside 50 metre tally in the opening quarter but continued to kick it to the opposition.

Brendan Dunne, Terry Green, Paul Rogasch and Matt Clifford did well down back, Nathan Gray, Mark Deveraux, Pete Mawson and Luke Smith were influential through the middle and Shaun Foster, Luke Clark, McVeigh and Luke Hewitt were dangerous in attack.

The Hillmen played into the Blues’ hands and it cost them victory.

The margin was four goals at half time when McVeigh nailed an after-the-siren goal and the margin blew out to five goals at three quarter time.

The Hillmen outscored the Blues in the final quarter but never threatened. Sean Marchetti, Jake Mold, Blake McCormack and Ben Poole were the best of the Hillmen.

Hastings will now play Somerville in the first semi final on Sunday at Devon Meadows while Frankston will play Rosebud at Rye on Saturday.
