Homeless need a safe haven Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au AS the rate of homelessness continues to climb, Frankston Council is being urged to provide a designated “safe area” where people with nowhere to live can sleep over night. A letter sent to Frankston councillors proposes using Crown land next to Seaford Beach Caravan Park to allow homeless people to sleep with “some degree of safety and protection”. The council recently alerted the caravan park operator the lease on Crown land on which about 20 cabins are located would not be renewed, with a car park planned for the site. Frankston Council’s acting chief executive Gillian Kay told residents that would have to vacate by 31 March next year. Many of the affected residents are considered to be at high risk of homelessness, having been referred to the caravan park by emergency housing agencies. Community activist and Friends of Edithvale-Seaford Wetlands member Matthew Mitchell said the council should extend its support for efforts to assist homeless people to its logical conclusion. “Council is to be commended for supporting Cr Glen Aitken in donating $1065 from his discretionary fund to help provide swags for the homeless,” Dr Mitchell wrote.
Chief takes his leave MORE than three decades ago Brian McMannis stopped to chat with SES volunteers warning late night motorists about a flooded road. Impressed by their dedication, he too decided to sign up to help the public in times of stress and danger. Last week, after 28 years as controller at Frankston SES, Mr McMannis handed over the role to his long time deputy, Philip Holt.

“Given that there are so many homeless people in the community, and certainly many of these are in Frankston, perhaps council could go further in assisting the recipients of these swags by providing a designated 'safe' area where they could sleep in these swags? “One possibility is the Crown land area next to Seaford Beach Caravan park, the lease for which has been held by the caravan park, and which reportedly the council is now terminating so as to use the land for other community purposes.” He said given the fact the termination of the lease was likely to contribute to homelessness with residents being displaced, using the site to provide a safe camping area “would seem appropriate”. “I sincerely hope that council will seriously consider the use of this Crown land, or of another appropriate site, for the purposes of accommodating homeless people in the swags provided by City Life and others. “With the aid of groups like City Life, such a site could offer homeless people some degree of safety and protection and would most likely make it easier to deliver help and services to at least one group of homeless people within the Frankston area.” Dr Mitchell said that while he had held some discussions with Cr Aitken about the homeless situation, he was yet to hear back from councillors.

Farewell to devoted dad Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au HUNDREDS of mourners bid farewell to senior Frankston SES and CFA member Peter Doutch at a funeral service at the Peninsula Aero Club at Tyabb following his death in an ultralight aircraft crash on 27 April. The service, which was held in the club rooms at 1pm on 10 June, was attended by about 400 family members, friends and colleagues, including his five-year-old daughter Emily, who was critically injured in the crash. Dozens of SES and CFA personnel formed a guard of honour along the airstrip to pay tribute to the dedicated father of two, who had devoted more than 24 year of his life to serving the community as a volunteer. Aero club members performed a “missing man” flyover following the service as Mr Doutch’s coffin passed through the guard of honour en route to Bunurong Memorial Park, where a private cremation service was held. Friends said it was as miraculous as it was heart breaking that Emily was now strong enough to leave hospital for the day to attend the service to say a final goodbye to her father, with
whom she was inseparable. She had been flying with her father in the microlight aircraft on the fateful Sunday afternoon when it crashed into the roof of a house in Seaview Rd, Tyabb. Mr Doutch was pronounced dead at the scene, while Emily was rescued from the wreckage and flown to The Alfred hospital with multiple injuries, including critical head and neck injuries, and breaks to her legs, pelvis and collar bone. She was in an induced coma for nine days. While still facing a long road to recovery, doctors and family members have described her steady recovery as “amazing”, praising her bravery, strength of spirit, and bubbly personality. Mother Susan Doutch said her husband would have been proud of the strength of character shown by both his daughter and son in the wake of the tragedy. She thanked family, friends and colleagues for their support and said her husband would have been “humbled” by his send-off. “What a perfect farewell for my husband of 10 years and partner of 15 years, Peter T Doutch,” she wrote on the family’s Facebook page following the funeral.

Constas quits as candidate Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON became the focal point of state politics again last week but this time it wasn’t independent Geoff Shaw who was in the spotlight. Labor candidate for Frankston Helen Constas withdrew from the race for the marginal seat at November’s state election after it was revealed a ‘bullying’ case against her was settled “confidentially out of court” when she was CEO at the Peninsula Community Legal Centre. It was reported an ex-personal assistant had accused Ms Constas of workplace bullying in 2010. Supreme Court documents revealed the employee “broke down and resigned” after “one particular incident” in which the PA was “screamed at in an abusive tone and threatened.” A statement of claim document provided further details about the former legal centre employee’s accusations amid claims of “injury” amid the “stressful nature of her employment environment” between 2008 and 2010. Ms Constas, as CEO, was accused of implementing “a bullying style of management and was demanding, aggressive, abusive, uncompromising, manipulative, unsupportive, unappreciative, accusatory, threatening, vindictive, harassing, overpowering and unpredictable in mood changes.” Opposition leader Daniel Andrews said he had not known about the settled legal claim until it became public knowledge last week. Ms Constas stepped down last Thursday and read a prepared statement to journalists outside Labor’s Melbourne headquarters. “This matter is very distressing to me and my family,” Ms Constas said. “I was committed to putting my heart and soul into running for Frankston, and I believe I would have been successful.” She said the nature of the “confidential settlement” made it difficult for her to comment further. Mr Andrews said the bullying allegation and out-of-court settlement had not been disclosed as part of Labor’s candidate preselection process. It is believed Mr Andrews advised Ms Constas to resign as the party’s Frankston candidate. Labor will now select a new candidate to contest Frankston. Mr Shaw won the seat for the Liberal Party by just 2.07 per cent in 2010.

Kobe leads his heroes into battle A YOUNG Langwarrin boy lived out every footy fan’s dream – and it came in two parts. First, he led his beloved Bulldogs onto Etihad Stadium to play arch rivals Collingwood in the annual Robert Rose Cup on Sunday 15 June. Then, against all the odds, they won. Kobe Malloy, 7, has an undiagnosed condition that has left him with very low muscle tone, ataxia and low levels of myelin in his brain, spine and nerves, limiting his mobility. The theme of this year’s Robert Rose Cup is disability inclusion, which recognises the contribution and achievements of people of all abilities. Robert Rose was the son of Collingwood legend Bob Rose and he himself played for both the Magpies and the Bulldogs before a car crash left him quadriplegic. Naming rights sponsor of the match, law firm Slater & Gordon, selected Kobe as mascot for the game. They are representing Kobe’s family in a medical case. The firm’s medical lawyer, Anne Shortall, said Kobe was the perfect choice. “Kobe is a delightful boy with an infectious smile. He’s such an inspiration and we are thrilled to be able to give him this opportunity.” His dad, Bevan, a keen Bulldogs fan himself, said the family was excited to be part of such an important match. “Kobe is a happy little boy who continues to amaze us. “As far as we know there is no one else in the world with his condition but that doesn’t stop him from having a go. He loves playing ball games and swimming and has settled into school really well.”

Street closed: A gas leak prompted Frankston CFA to close Davey St to traffic and pedestrians last Tuesday morning. Senior station officer John Townsend said a digger used by South East Water workmen to fix a blocked sewer had nicked a gas main under the nature strip at about 8.45am on Tuesday 17 June. Mr Townsend said the street was closed between Young St and Nepean Highway so officers could isolate any possible ignition sources while the leak was fixed. They then monitored the air with gas detectors to ensure the environment was safe. Picture: Gary Sissons

Young people bear brunt of ‘jobs crisis’ Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au THE number of Frankston residents looking for work continues to grow, with latest unemployment figures showing the city’s unemployment rate is well above the national average. Official statistics show Frankston’s unemployment rate has risen to 7.26 per cent compared to the national rate of 5.9 per cent. With an estimated workforce of 73,000 people out of a total population of about 129,000, the City of Frankston now has more 5300 residents registered as actively seeking work, according to official government data. And the situation for young people is even worse, with 21.3 per cent of 15-19 year olds out of work and 12.8 per cent of youths aged under 24 actively looking for a job. The release of the latest figures follows the federal government’s unveiling of tough new conditions for social security benefits, especially for young people. The Frankston and peninsula region was recently announced as one of 18 “high-unemployment areas” around Australia to spearhead a trial of Coalition government’s revitalised “work for the dole program”. From 1 July, registered job seekers aged between 18 and 30 in the Frankston and peninsula region who have been unemployed for twelve months or more will be required to perform around 15 hours a week of unpaid work over a six-month period to be eligible to receive unemployment benefits. The controversial program will be rolled out to the rest of the country 12 months later, when weekly requirements will increase to 25 hours unpaid work a week. The state opposition last week slammed the
Napthine and Abbott governments over the declining job market and cuts to education and youth services budgets. Shadow Minister for Youth Affairs Martin Foley said thousands of Frankston and peninsula young people were at risk of being cut off from mainstream society. “Throughout the Frankston and peninsula region, there is a significant group of young people who aren’t just unemployed, they have been so for years – these people need help and support and they aren’t getting from the Liberals,” he said. “The estimate of the councils and services was that in the Frankston/Mornington Peninsula region, there were some 2500 young people lost to the education/training system and, with these cuts, about to be cast away from mainstream society. Mr Foley said he recently attended a youth unemployment round table at Frankston Library with representatives of the region’s youth services providers to discuss issues affecting young people following the unveiling of the state and federal budgets last month. “With record levels of unemployment, disengagement, homelessness demands, intergenerational family unemployment, family violence, drug and alcohol levels, the ending of the funding to Youth Connections and Local Learning employment coordination networks, cuts to youth Newstart, disability support and the further cuts to TAFE, Schools EMAs, etc are leaving local young people on the edge of a crisis. “Whether it’s Denis Napthine or Tony Abbott, the Liberal Party has no interest in helping young people get a job anywhere in Victoria,” he said. However, federal member for Dunkley Bruce Billson said the Coalition’s “tough love” policies would help more young people escape unemployment and find fulfilling careers.

Shaw says sorry with Amazing Grace Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au HEARD the one about the MP who crossed the premier then appeared at “a comedy show”? It was no laughing matter for Premier Denis Napthine who – ironically – called Geoff Shaw’s apology to Victorians and its parliament offered at the show “a joke” after the Frankston MP took to the stage in Melbourne last weekend. Mr Shaw was suspended from parliament for 11 days for “misusing” parliamentary entitlements and one of his first engagements after his suspension was an appearance at The Wheeler Centre for a ‘question and answer’ session with comedian Sammy J on Friday 13 June. Sanctions against the independent MP include the need to apologise to parliament and “the people of Victoria” by 2 September or face expulsion. During the Q&A session Mr Shaw said sorry to parliament and Victoria – despite his claim he had “been screwed by parliament” – but the apology drew laughs from the audience with Sammy J querying its sincerity. The audience was treated to the sight of Mr Shaw playing Amazing Grace on the bagpipes at the conclusion of the evening. The maverick independent MP’s decision to speak to Sammy J – himself a former “local” Mt Eliza resident and Peninsula School alumni – was portrayed in some quarters as an affront to the seriousness of Mr Shaw’s suspension, the heftiest punishment doled

out to a sitting MP “in 100 years”, according to the premier. The Times contacted The Wheeler Centre and head of programming Simon Abrahams was happy to set the record straight. Mr Abrahams said Mr Shaw’s guest spot as part of the ‘Sammy J’s Democratic Party’ series of events was booked in mid-April by organisers. The fact Mr Shaw was due to appear in the very week he was suspended from parliament was merely a coincidence.
“This is a new series for us and Sammy J. We have invited representatives from across the political spectrum. Given that Sammy J’s Democratic Party is all about getting to know the person behind the politics, we thought Geoff Shaw made for a very interesting candidate.” As for the perception Mr Shaw’s appearance was “a comedy show”, Mr Abrahams said the event was the first in a series and former federal Labor minister Lindsay Tanner was slated to

Curtains are making a remarkable come back. For many years, roller blinds have created a very minimalistic look in the modern home. By popular demand, the warmth and decorative nature of curtains are breaking through into customers’ homes. Savings on heat loss and heat gain is as great as 60% when fully lined curtains are installed with coordinating pelmets being the primary window furnishing throughout the home. There is an endless range of fabrics, textures, colours and sampling available for curtains and coordinating products to decorate your home. New fabric ranges are available to suit the traditional home through to the very modern home. To complement the curtains are tracks and rods from the traditional systems to modern streamline tracks, wave tracks and motorized options. In addition to curtains, there is an amazing range of sheer fabrics enabling you to create privacy, where necessary, with class and fashion being the priority to complement the curtains and window treatments. Motorization of curtains and blinds is another concept that is gaining popularity. Any type of curtain or blind can be motorized – imagine being able to open or close any or all of your curtains or blinds at the push of a button. Unsure of the answer to a decorating problem, then give one of Peninsula Curtains & Blinds decorators a call so they can help you transform your room or home with ease.

appear next month. “Sammy J’s series at The Wheeler Centre isn’t comedy, it’s a series of conversations led by a comedian. There’ll be plenty of laughs, but our aim is to get to know the person behind the political front,” Mr Abrahams said. See www.wheelercentre.com/ events for details of future events including further political guests on Sammy J’s Democratic Party series at The Wheeler Centre in Melbourne.
Winter Boot Specials
GEOFF Shaw’s appearance at The Wheeler Centre saw the MP questioned by Sammy J about several topics over an interview lasting about 45 minutes, bagpiping excluded (see left). The independent MP seemed relaxed and jovial despite having been suspended from state parliament that very week. Mr Shaw denied misusing his parliamentary car for personal reasons but did admit “sometimes you do go up to the boundaries”. He said he had done “nothing wilful or criminal”. He said he bore no ill will towards ex-premier Ted Baillieu but said “Ted was quite a distant sort of fellow” who did not often talk to backbenchers. Sammy J was critical that Mr Shaw had not mentioned his antiabortion views in his maiden parliamentary speech or in his preelection campaign in 2010. Mr Shaw said he had not yet decided if he would contest this year’s state election and would think about it closer to the poll date. “I’m not going to go into a known loss...there’s life after politics - it’s not the highest priority of mine,” he said. He wanted to be remembered as: “The guy who did his best for Frankston.”

Beam it up: Construction at the $49.7 million Peninsula Aquatic and Recreation Centre continues apace. The Times photographer Gary Sissons captured the moment the main beam – known as the boom – was lifted by the construction crew into the new building earlier this month. The boom enables the 50-metre swimming pool to be divided into two separate areas. The building can now be made watertight with the project now more than 90 per cent complete. PARC Frankston at the cnr Cranbourne Rd and Olive Grove is on schedule to be open in spring. Visit www.parcfrankston.com.au for details.

Call to ban fish netting in bay CONCERNS about over-fishing by commercial netters at the southern end of Port Phillip have prompted a petition to state parliament to have them banned. Organiser Ken Tainton, of Third Ave Rosebud, said he had “easily 1100-1200 signatures” on several petitions from local anglers worried that stocks of snapper, whiting, flathead, salmon and flathead are in terminal decline. A member of the Tootgarook Boat Ramp Club, and long-time former commodore of the Rosebud Motor Boat Squadron, Mr Tainton is meeting with Nepean MP Martin Dixon on Friday to discuss the anglers’ fears. The petitions will then be combined as one and presented the following Friday. Mr Dixon will be asked to have it read to the legislative assembly before parliament winds down in the lead up to the November state election. The petition points out that over-fishing by netters is causing depletion of fish stocks and asks that commercial fishing be ordered to cease immediately. Mr Tainton said the fish “should be left to breed” rather than wiped out as was likely to happen if the netting continued unabated. He said over-fishing “has been going on for years” and that areas of concern ranged from Mt Martha to Sorrento and south of the South Channel. A Department of Environment and Primary Industry spokeswoman said the number of fishing
licences was capped at 42, with no new licences being issued although they can change hands anecdotally for as much as $1 million. “I have fished here for 53 years and the depletion of fish stocks it is just getting ridiculous,” Mr Tainton said. “They have taken everything.” The spokeswoman said commercial fishers in the Bay were under the authority of a Western Port/Port Phillip Bay Fishery Access Licence. She said the commercial fishers were authorised to use longlines, mesh nets and haul seines to catch fish species such as pilchards, King George whiting and snapper. The main species taken over the past decade in order of catch size are snapper, King George whiting, southern calamari, Australian salmon, southern garfish and rock flathead. Recreational anglers may often catch more than the commercial sector on an annual basis. “For example, the recreational harvest of snapper is four times larger than the commercial catch,” she said. “Fisheries Victoria monitors the Bay to ensure the sustainability of Victoria’s fisheries for future generations. The most recent Fisheries Victoria stock assessments of key species indicate that fish stocks are in good condition and are sustainably fished.” The Fisheries Research and Development Corporation report Status of Australian Fish Stocks Report 2012 lists western Victorian snapper and King George whiting stocks as sustainable. Commercial fisheries for calamari, silver trevally, King George whiting and snapper in the bay have also been assessed as sustainable by the Australian Conservation Foundation's Sustainable Australian Seafood Assessment Program.

SES chief looks back on decades of disasters Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au IT’S going to be hard for the crew at Frankston SES to think of Brian McMannis as anything but the chief. But that’s the reality as the man credited with turning the branch into perhaps the best in the state stands down after 28 years at the top. Tributes flowed at a retirement dinner attended by 220 wellwishers at Frankston RSL last week. State emergency services commissioner Craig Lapsley, SES chief officer Trevor White, deputy chief Tim Wiebusch, Dunkley MP Bruce Billson and the heads of the local CFA, police and the RSL all sang his praises after 36 years of dedicated service. On the night, Mr McMannis – a former Frankston Citizen of the Year and recipient of the Emergency Services Medal - was awarded the first-ever life membership of the SES and praised for his dedication to the job and the sense of professionalism he had instilled in its members. “There are no hands in pockets while our officers are on the job,” said incoming chief Philip Holt, who’s served the SES for almost as long as Mr McMannis – 33 years - and as his deputy for 26. “He’s made us into a really good team and we have wonderful relationships with other emergency services.” At his Seaford base on Tuesday – which the members built themselves under his leadership – Mr McMannis recalled the wet, windy night in 1978

he first encountered SES volunteers and how he was impressed by their dedication and selflessness. “I was driving home late along McLelland Drive after heavy rain,” he said. “The SES volunteers were out there, warning drivers about flooding further along, and I stopped to have a chat with them. I realised what a terrific job they were doing and, when I got home, I told my wife about the poor buggers standing out in the rain helping people. “I took them back some hot coffee and met the rescue officer and he said if I was interested in joining to
come and see them.” Inspired, Mr McMannis soon afterwards visited the original Seaford headquarters in a house opposite the present base in McCulloch Ave. He became controller in 1986. The rest is history. The early SES crew was a creative lot with 25 members and a 1965 Dodge truck and trailer - but they had aspirations and drive. Over eight years they built a functional and purpose-built headquarters and established a reputation for hard work and professionalism. Now, with 90 members, they have modern equipment – such as the Jaws of Life
blinds blinds com.au
- and a fleet of three rescue vehicles, two four-wheel-drives, a mini bus, a station wagon and storm damage trailers. Storms, car accidents and fires are the mainstays of the service which receives around 1000 callouts each year. “I remember coming down here after a big storm 10 years ago and we’d had 575 calls for assistance,” Mr McMannis said. His most vivid memories include national disasters, such as the 1983 Ash Wednesday bushfires and those of 2009’s Black Saturday. In the first, his Frankston crew was called to assist at Pakenham and Officer where they evacuated houses, returning later to search for bodies. In the second, Frankston crews rushed to Kinglake where the local SES had lost everything – including its truck. “After Ash Wednesday I remember hoping we’d never see another disaster like that. And then we had to go through Black Saturday.” Support from the public is vital. “We were at Kinglake for five days. Luckily, a local lady hired a generator and allowed us to live at her house. But it was a tragic situation.” More personal tragedies, unfortunately, live with him every day. The most depressing was the search for 23-year-old Sarah MacDiarmid, who went missing from Kananook station one night in July 1990 and has never been found. “I am still in touch with her parents,” he said. Another was the search for victims of serial killer Paul Denyer in
Frankston in 1993. SES volunteers did a line search to assist police and helped remove the body of one of his victims. A funeral director for the past 16 years with John Allison Monkhouse, Mr McMannis praises the company for its support and generosity in his frequent absences. His long hours on the job – up until midnight on some training nights - would not have been possible without it. And he credits improvements to road safety – such as car seat belts, airbags, and the enforcement of 0.05 blood alcohol rules as reducing the huge loss of life on our roads since the 1960s. “Even putting roadside barriers along the Frankston freeway has been of great help,” he said. Looking ahead to a simpler life, Mr McMannis says: “I feel that this is the right time to leave, although I am staying on as a volunteer. “I’ve had a lot of satisfaction helping people go through traumatic times over the years, and the work will never cease - such as on Monday when a cyclist was hit by the train at Edithvale. “Phil [Holt] has been my bridesmaid for a long time and now he can have a go. I know my wife will be happy: we can take more holidays.” Mr Holt, a teacher at McClelland College, said he was looking forward to his role as controller “but I certainly won’t be doing it for as long as Brian did. He’s staying on to support us with his huge wealth of knowledge – and I’m sure he will kick my butt if I do the wrong thing.”

Cooking up a Wish list BANKERS will become bakers to whisk up cupcakes and biscuits in aid of a good cause. Staff at Frankston’s Bendigo Bank will host a Bake Off to raise funds for the Starlight Children’s Foundation. Inspired by TV show MasterChef, staff will get cooking as part of Starlight’s Community Cooking Challenge. Starlight provides some brightness in the lives of seriously ill children by arranging fun events for their families. Bank acting manager Kerry Debernardi said the Bake Off was a way for the bank to make a difference to the lives of some Frankston families. “Raising this sort of money will give sick children special experiences and memories that they and their families can treasure,” he said.
Bendigo Bank offices across Australia will participate in the Bake Off on Friday. Bendigo Bank Frankston will host a Bake Off at the branch at 3-5 Thompson St on Friday 27 June throughout the whole day. All donations will support the work of Starlight Children’s Foundation, with a $20 donation providing arts and crafts to a hospitalised child. Every $6,500 raised grants a child a ‘Life Changing Starlight Wish’, an experience they will never forget. “The Bake Off will be a lot of fun so pop in and buy a cupcake or biscuit,’’ Mr Debernardi said. Call Bendigo Bank Frankston on 9770 1644 for full details.
State move to end bullying BULLY Stopper grants – as the name suggests – aim to stamp out bullying behaviour. And state schools throughout the state are urged to apply for them. The grants program is part of the state government’s $4 million Bully Stoppers initiative and the broader $14.5 million Stamp Out Bullying! campaign. Local schools to benefit so far include Kananook Primary and Nepean School. Both now foster cultures of kindness and ‘looking out’ for each other. Carrum MP Donna Bauer said schools would share in $450,000 from the third round of the grants program, which has so far provided $750,000 to 187 schools. “Up to one-in-five children are involved in bullying at any one time and the Bully Stoppers message is: Make a Stand, Lend a Hand – step in and help out when you see bullying occurring,” she said.

“We know that negative experiences as a result of bullying can have detrimental effects on children’s futures. This campaign aims to change that by providing grants of up to $10,000 to implement strategies, initiatives or programs to prevent and respond to bullying at school.” Since the start of the program last year, students have educated their peers about cyber safety, written anti-bullying songs and choreographed anti-bullying dances, designed iPad apps and hosted forums on bullying. More than 1,800 Victorian schools - four out of five - have signed up to the government’s $10 million eSmart cyber safety initiative with the Alannah and Madeleine Foundation. Over the next week every state school will receive a Bully Stoppers pack – including posters, certificates for Bully Stopper-of-the-Month and advice sheets. Applications for primary and secondary schools close on 18 July.

Plans to meet basketball needs the
Bauer Brief
Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Council has endorsed a $20-$25 million plan to provide adequate basketball facilities through to 2031. A report to council last week outlined ways to upgrade and expand the city’s indoor basketball facilities, focusing on a staged development of Frankston Basketball Association’s stadium in Bardia Ave, Seaford. Officers have been asked to develop schematic plans for the improved facilities and to report back by December. They will undertake a funding advocacy campaign to identify potential grants from state and federal governments and other potential partners. The council has assigned $500,000 in next year's budget towards the project. The full cost of redeveloping the Bardia Ave site in three stages is tipped to be $20-$25 million. Stage 1: $13 million - build two courts, including a show court with retractable seating and supporting amenities (change, referees, firstaid rooms), foyer, administration areas, cafe, store rooms and car park extension. Stage 2: $4.5 million-$7.1 million – build two courts, replace the existing three sports pavilions with a new multi-use sporting pavilion for Kananook Sports Club, Southern Umpires Association and Frankston & District Junior Football League. Stage 3: $4.5 million-$5.3 million - build two courts and cater to the requirements of a regional table tennis/multi-sport facility. Experts say it is more economical to update and expand existing infrastructure than build on a new site. The Bardia Ave centre has six courts, including a show court for 500-600 spectators. It has change rooms and amenities, administration area, car parking for 173 spaces and bus drop off zone.

But the facilities are now “at capacity”, according to the mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, “and we are often seeing games scheduled for 11pm some nights just to get through the required number of games”. “As a regional city we should be able to cater to the demand.” Cr Taylor said as well as having a huge local requirement for modern facilities, Frankston was a sporting hub for participants from surrounding areas “and as a result we are at breaking point”. The problem will be exacerbated by a growing population – tipped to grow from 132,000 to 144,900 by 2021 - and more players - up from 7000 to 7770 players in the same time frame. Participation rates are tipped to rise to 8000-9000 players by 2031. There are significantly more junior players (62 per cent) than senior players (38 per cent). Court requirements now are, in reality, 14, but this is expected to grow to 15/16 courts by 2021 and 16/17 by 2031. This is based on the continuing availability for community use of three courts at Elisabeth Murdoch Secondary College and another three at Patterson River Secondary
College. If not, an extra 10 to 11 courts would be required, the officers said. The figures do not include participation rates for netball, table tennis, volleyball or futsal – and so don’t anticipate potential demand for total indoor courts to meet current and future needs. It is understood that growing netball requirements, too, will be addressed as part of the proposed expansion. Volleyball and table tennis could also potentially be played in a larger basketball centre depending on the number of courts available. The decision to back the officers’ recommendation comes after a three month study into basketball participation rates. “It’s a solid ask,” Cr James Dooley said. “Now we have to work out a way to make it happen.” Added impetus for the new courts comes from having a large proportion of the population in their most active years. More than half (61 per cent) are below 44 years old. Also, opportunities to attract more regional and country events or tournaments would provide economic benefits through increased demand for accommodation, food and beverages.
Health service seeks a partner PENINSULA Health is seeking “a partner” to run its residential aged care services in Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. A short list of “approved, skilled and wellresourced” not for profit and other nongovernment organisations will be asked to tender for the rights to operate Carinya, a 30-bed centre in Golf Links Rd, Frankston and the 18-bed Michael Court at Seaford. The chosen partner will be offered a further 42 bed licences for future residential aged care expansion. This will allow it to build a new aged care centre for up to 90 beds taking into account the 48 beds from both Carinya and Michael Court. Michael court would then be sold while Carinya, part of the Golf Links Rd rehabilitation and palliative care site, would be used for other purposes.

Peninsula Health runs the Frankston and Rosebud hospitals, The Mornington Centre, Golf Links Rd Rehabilitation Centre, community health and mental health services and Mt Eliza Centre. It would not disclose those tendering, or invited to tender, citing commercial reasons. The move follows Peninsula Health’s transfer last year of residential aged care operations at Rosebud to Southern Cross Care (Vic). “We are seeking expressions of interest from a panel of government approved aged care providers in both the not for profit and private sectors and hope to commence a new partnership before the end of the year,” Peninsula Health chief operating officer - aged care, Jan Child, said last week. Ms Child said the latest plan would provide
“the best possible result for current and future residents”. Only approved, experienced, and financially strong aged care providers would be considered. Accounting firm Ernst and Young has been hired to help in the selection. In meetings last week, Ms Child outlined the health provider’s plans to residents of Carinya and Michael Court, as well as their families, volunteers and staff. Currently 70 full and parttimers are employed across the two sites. It’s not known how many jobs are at risk, with the organisation saying it was “too soon to say”. However, Ms Child said ongoing roles at other Peninsula Health sites would be sought for displaced staff. She said “there may also be a small number of staff who will seek a redundancy”.
MOTORISTS turning right into Nepean Hwy at the Seaford Rd intersection know how frustrating it can be waiting for pedestrians to cross, particularly during the busy summer months. And it is equally frustrating – and at times dangerous – for pedestrians trying to cope with impatient drivers. To address the problem, the State Government has provided funding to change the operation of the traffic signals so that the northern pedestrian crossing at the intersection will no longer operate at the same time as the Seaford Road right turn. I AM continuing to push for the relocation of the Carrum Downs CFA to new headquarters. The brigade’s preferred site is the north-east corner of the Wedge Rd – Frankston-Dandenong Rd intersection. I raised the issue with Police and Emergency Services Minister Kim Wells in Parliament earlier this year, and have requested an update on negotiations between the Minister’s office, CFA and Frankston City Council. Now in its 70th year, Carrum Downs CFA is a very busy station, attending about 450 fires and incidents per year. SOME lucky groups and organisations in my electorate have benefitted from my dad Terry’s very green thumb in recent weeks. Dad grows seedlings especially for me to distribute to local groups that may have a community garden or vegetable patch. Not only will they soon have thriving crops of lettuce and spinach, but we hope that his hard work inspires budding gardeners to take up the hobby. Thanks dad. COMPLETION of the Mordialloc bypass is a step closer following an announcement that $10.6 million will be spent on preparing a business case and statutory approvals for the project. Combined with the Dingley Bypass this road will drastically reduce congestion and improve safety on local roads and make a huge difference to commuters in my electorate. We have already committed to building the Dingley Bypass, and construction will start later this year and be completed in 2016. WE are well into footy season and I love being able to catch a game or two of local footy and meeting with players and families. This month I’ve also enjoyed attending special luncheon events at Bonbeach and Skye Football Clubs, and Seaford Football and Netball Club. These events are not only a great way for club members and friends to show their support for the club, but for clubs to show their appreciation in return.

Last Post ‘to stir’ memorial past first post Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au
The memorial relocation was uncosted when councillors unanimously agreed to support the project last year. Sources have advised The Times a figure of $300,000 had been mooted at that point. Councillors agreed to support the project at the time. The federal government has committed $100,000 to the relocation and Frankston RSL has pledged $125,000 spread over ten years, mostly to be used to maintain the new memorial. The mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, has allocated $5000 from the discretionary mayoral fund. A “saucer-shaped” design for the memorial coupled with an Avenue of Honour had seen the project costs ultimately come in at about $1.4 million. Stage one would cost about $500,000 with several councillors reluctant to commit to the project before it is fully funded. When questioned after last week’s council meeting, Cr Taylor said the $300,000 figure had been “floating somewhere out in the ether” and “may have been discussed by the original committee” formed to discuss the project last year. Cr Taylor was “surprised” at the playing of The Last Post at last week’s council meeting. “They’re [the Frankston City Band] are pretty passionate about it,” he said. Mrs Bullock said the band played at the Anzac Day memorial commemorations at the Frankston war memorial each year and saw firsthand the need for its relocation to an area with more space for attendees. “We play on the nature strip there and we’re almost in the gutter,” she said. “There are huge crowds there every year and they deserve better.” Cr Taylor said it was now uncertain what would happen with the new war memorial proposal for Beauty Park “unless it comes back to us (council)”.
THE sound of a lone bugle interrupted the start of last week’s Frankston Council meeting amid a protest over delays to the relocation of the city’s war memorial. Protesters in the public gallery were unhappy the topic of the war memorial was removed from the June council meeting agenda and had gathered to make their feelings known to the assembled councillors. Frankston City Band bugler Neville Lloyd stood up in the public viewing area and played The Last Post as councillors stood up to recite The Lord’s Prayer. Several band members sat with Mr Lloyd in the public gallery. Band president Terri Bullock told The Times they hoped “to stir the councillors into action”. “They’ve been busy talking about it for too long…it was time to make them aware action is needed,” she said. The relocation of Frankston’s war memorial from Davey St to Beauty Park has become embroiled in debate over who should fund the project, which has an estimated cost of about $1.4 million (‘Memorial in doubt’, The Times, 16/6/14). Councillors decided to discuss the matter at last week’s meeting after Cr Glenn Aitken introduced an urgent notice of motion to the meeting agenda. After lengthy debate, councillors were unable to “formalise support for the Beauty Park project” despite unanimously agreeing a new war memorial was required. Councillors remain divided over the final design and cost of the new war memorial. Frankston Council issued a statement after last week’s meeting claiming “the original projected cost - $1.4 million – had not escalated as reported in the media.”

A level of confusion remains over how many resident of the caravan park will be forced from their homes. The park’s operator has indicated that about 50 cabins housing 80 people would be removed. However, a letter to residents signed by Ms Kay states that only about 20 cabins on Crown Land managed by council were affected. “Council understands there are a number of mixed messages being circulated about the current situation,” the letter states. “We assure you Frankston City Council is still, and has always been, committed to residents being re-housed.”

“Thank you to all involved in turning my vision into reality. Pete would have been humbled by such an awesome send-off.” In addition to his volunteer work with the SES and CFA, Mr Doutch was remembered as being passionate about flying and singing, and had turned his love of karaoke into a successful business. Retiring Frankston SES controller Brian McMannis said Mr Doutch was one of the Frankston unit’s most senior members. “It was a very sad day but a fitting send-off for such a dedicated volunteer,” Mr McMannis said. “He was very well respected and very well liked and his loss has hit us all hard.” Mr McMannis said the SES would continue to support the Doutch family, especially in their efforts to get the house ready to meet Emily’s needs when she returns home in about four weeks’ time. Peninsula Aero Club president Peter Bernardi said members had also been involved in fundraising efforts for the Doutch family. “The family has been so strong through all of this, but with Pete now gone and Emily facing a long road to recovery, we really need to make sure they get all the help we can provide,” he said. A Facebook page, The Doutch Family Fund Raising Support Group, has been set up to help the family through Emily’s recovery.

Prayers have been answered â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;CHAPEL Cornerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; is named to reflect its past as a place of worship and to this day the home still retains some of the original features that make this such a rare and intriguing home. Dating back to the 1890s, the home has been steadily extended and re-modelled over the years to incorporate a more contemporary way of living and in its current form will suit a large family who are keen to utilise the beautiful natural surroundings and the splendid 5.86 hectare block. The living areas are all located downstairs, and they are nothing short of impressive. A dazzling variety of styles and decors has created warm and inviting areas with equally classy entertaining zones. A comfortable lounge room overlooks the grounds and consists of a wood fire. Through a set of sliding doors is a characterdriven family area with both casual meals and formal dining spaces, a second lounge area and the bright kitchen has a stainless-steel dishwasher and plenty of under-bench cupboards. The master bedroom with ensuite and built-in robes is also on this ground floor and there are four bedrooms upstairs sharing a second bathroom. The upstairs lounge room is perfect for children. The area surrounding the home includes a timber deck set amongst the abundant lawns and gardens and the calming, picturesque dam featuring an island gazebo with power and water - is a postcard moment unto itself. This is a working property however and the outbuildings are also of a high quality. A high-span workshop comes complete with an office and bathroom, and a second barn could be fitted out for equestrian purposes with stables and hay sheds in place to complement the existing exercise arena. There is plenty of water, with tanks plus a bore, and the extensive post and rail fencing, which is very suitable for horses, serves another purpose as the perfect final touch to this outstanding rural-residential property.

Belle goes above and beyond in new role HIGH-profile Winter Olympian and long-time peninsula resident Belle Brockhoff is ready to go above and beyond to help turn the tide against discrimination. The Olympic snowboarder, who grew up on her family’s estate in Dromana, was last week appointed a beyondblue ambassador and said she plans to use her new position to highlight the issue of homophobia. Brockhoff was also the only openly gay member of the Australian team at the Sochi Winter Olympics earlier this year and spoke out against Russia’s anti-gay laws. Not only is Brockhoff proud to be gay, the 21-year-old has also shared her story of depression and anxiety, and of seeking support, in the hope of inspiring others to reach out when they are struggling. Beyondblue acting CEO Dr Brian Graetz said Brockhoff had shown she shares the organisation’s passion for taking a stand against discrimination in all its forms and that her courage was an inspiration to all lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people. “Homophobia is never acceptable, and Belle has shown courage in speaking out in difficult circumstances,” Dr Graetz said. “Homophobia, like any form of discrimination, can cause long-term stress, which can lead to depression and anxiety.” He said research had shown that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and intersex people were at least three times more likely to try to take their own lives.
“LGB Australians are also three times more likely to be currently experiencing depression than their heterosexual peers and are twice as likely to be experiencing anxiety,” he said. Brockhoff said she first experienced the symptoms of depression and anxiety when she was 16 when she didn’t have confidence in herself, felt unhappy most days of the week and began to self-harm. She had her first discussion about her mental health with a GP when she accompanied her mother to a doctor’s appointment and was encouraged afterwards to have a chat with the doctor about why she was often feeling down. “The doctor diagnosed me with depression and referred me to see a psychiatrist, but I refused to do so because I felt that meant there was something wrong with me,” Brockhoff explained. “I didn’t know then just how common depression was, so I felt like a freak.” She said she hit her lowest point two years later in her final year of school, when she began experiencing increasingly angry outbursts over little things and felt like she was a burden to people around her. “That was when I decided to see a psychologist,” she said. “I saw her a few times and she helped me become more aware of my thoughts that led to particular feelings. “In the last two years, I’ve also been working with a sports psychologist who is aware of my condition. Seeking this support has made me feel

much better. “Now when I’m down, I try to surround myself with positive and happy people, or talk to my mum and dad or my sister. “I also find going for walks by myself or hanging out with a good friend helps if I’m bummed about a result during competitions.” Dr Graetz said when people share their story of depression or anxiety, it helped break down stigma around
these conditions. “Belle’s story sends a powerful message, particularly to young LGBTI people, that depression and anxiety are common conditions and having a mental health issue is not a sign of weakness. It takes courage to accept that you need help when you are struggling,” he said. Brockhoff encouraged anyone who may be having a tough time to speak up and reach out for support.
“There is a lot of support out there from the people who care about you and organisations like beyondblue. You are worthwhile and there is hope,” she said. Anyone having a tough time can contact trained mental health counsellors at the beyondblue Support Service on 1300 22 4636 or via www. beyondblue.org.au/get-support for online chat or email responses.

Korner will conduct an important clearing sale at Rosebud on account of Mr Zichy Woniarski. Full particulars are advertised. *** THE work of tree planting at French Island, which has been carried out continuously for the past four years, has recommenced, and many men are employed. The pine trees already planted have made excellent progress. *** “THE Crib”, Mr S. S. Price’s weekend residence on the Island was broken into last week. The padlocks were wrenched off the door, and every thing turned upside down and smashed. The matter has been put in the hands of the local police. *** MR S. S. Price is leaving Melbourne by the Moldovia on Tuesday next to attend the wedding of his sister in
W.A. to Captain Clark, veterinary surgeon to the W A Government. Mr Price intends travelling up to Broome, and then along the N.W. Coast, and he will not visit Frankston again till about the end of August. *** The social and presentation to Mr J. Murphy, which takes place in the Mechanics’ Institute, Mornington, on Tuesday evening next, promises to be one of the most successful and enjoyable functions of its kind, judging from the enthusiasm and generosity which the movement has received from the public. The evening will be spent in dancing, a musical programme, and presentation. Mr Hayes will officiate at the piano, Mr Westley, violin, and Mr Hopkins, piccolo. Everybody welcome. *** AT a special meeting of the Mornington Racing Club, held in the Mechanics’ Institute on Saturday night last, it was unanimously decided to lease the present course for a period of ten years, with the right of purchase at end of third year, at a stated price. Also that the course, which contains 70 acres, be let for grazing purposes from lst July next, tenders to be called for same. The annual meeting will take place on or about the 15th August, due notice of which will be given in our advertising columns. *** A very pleasant evening was spent by the fifty couples who assembled at the progressive euchre party held in connection with the Mornington Progress Association on Wednesday evening last, at the Mechanics’ Institute. The
time allotted for play was two hours, and during that time 12 games were played, after which a coffee supper was partaken of and highly appreciated. The energetic secretary (Mr C. Whelan) and the committee are to be congratulated on the success of their undertaking, and it is hoped another such evening will be held at an early date. *** Constable and Mrs Stephenson are at present on a visit to Frankston, renewing acquaintances with old friends. ***
Officers of the Main Roads Board visited the locality recently, but were only able to go half way along the road. Their motor car got bogged, and had to be hauled out by horses.
MISS Coila Richmond, a former resident of Frankston. but who is now residing at Devonport (Tas.) paid a visit to Frankston and Mornington last week, where she was welcomed by her wide circle of friends. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold a clearing sale at the residence of Mrs A.

will offer surplus furniture, pot and foliage plants, ferns etc. *** ALL work has ceased on the Roads Board contract from Balnarring to Merricks until 1st November, in consequence of the impassable state of the roads. The contract is held by the Albion Quarrying Co. Officers of the Main Roads Board visited the locality recently, but were only able to go half way along the road. Their motor car got bogged, and had to be hauled out by horses. The officers then inspected the road on foot, and agreed to suspend operations until winter is over. *** THERE was a splendid attendance at the Mechanics’ Hall, Frankston, on Saturday evening last, when a dance was held to defray the expenses of a Frankston child who had been in the Infectious Diseases Hospital, was held. The music was all that could be desired, and Mr W. Gregory carried out the duties of MC. Proceedings terminated at midnight, when a tasty supper, provided by the ladies, was handed round. The secretarial duties were carried out by Mr M. Brody in his usual efficient manner. *** Residents of Sorrento are becoming very dissatisfied with the present mail arrangements. During the winter months the mails are sent from Melbourne to Mornington and thence by coach to Sorrento. The coach does not reach Sorrento until 3.30pm, and consequently letters are not delivered until after 4pm. Sorrento is only 60 miles from Melbourne and there is a good road, which could be further improved
at little expense. Local residents contend that the postal authorities should endeavor to arrange for a motor service, as the present arrangements are antiquated and slow. *** AT the meeting of the Chelsea Progress Association on Saturday night, Mr Shillinglaw drew attention to the irregularity of the 6.43am workmen’s train to Flinders Street. He said it was supposed to arrive at 18 minutes before 8am. Frequently it was 5 or 10 minutes late, and on two occasions lately it arrived at 8.15, with the result that several workmen travelling by it lost their day’s work through being late. Mr Howard said the 7.27am train to town has also, for the last month or two, been running in a very erratic manner. For four or five days out of the six in the week it arrived in town from five to twenty minutes late. The delay took place through dealing with horse boxes on the train. More over there was not sufficient accommodation. Directly the train left Mordialloc the carriages were packed. The 5.9pm express from town was also getting most inconvenient. The accommodation was quite inadequate, and when a number of drill shirkers bound for Langwarrin got on, things were very bad indeed. On the motion of Messrs Barnes and Howard, the committee was requested to take action in the matter. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 27 June 1914

HISTORY
In search of the origins of peninsula football
Above: Early days at Frankston Left: Mornington Township Estate for sale. Below: Mornington Railway Station Bottom: Portsea looking towards Queenscliff
By Lance Hodgins Part Four IN the Melbourne of 1858, it had been only a matter of weeks before the schoolboy matches were followed by young adults forming clubs and challenging each other to games of Australian football. In the case of Mornington, however, it would take a little longer for the 1883 Academy/Vale Street encounter to have the same reaction. Perhaps the light population of the area had something to do with this. In the early 1880s, Mornington had just over 500 people and was clearly the legal and economic hub of the peninsula. This was more than twice the number in Hastings and three times that of Frankston which, at that time, had only 29 houses and 173 people! Over the next decade, however, this balance was to change dramatically with many implications for economic, political and sporting activity. In 1882, the railway came to Frankston and the sleepy little village was linked to the suburban network of Melbourne. This created a ten-year boom period in which hotels, banks, the first Ritchie store, and several small industries sprang up. From the outset, rumours were rife in Frankston that a football club was soon to be formed, but there were fears that the town still lacked sufficient young men to support it. The game was thriving in Dandenong, they argued, conveniently and impatiently ignoring the fact that Dandenong had been established as the economic “gateway to Gippsland” for over two decades. The population of Frankston began to grow steadily. It didn’t take long for the newcomers to “flex their muscles” and challenge Mornington for supremacy on several fronts. For instance, Frankston demanded a greater say in local government matters, especially the funding of roads. In fact, animosity between the two towns would ultimately lead to the severance of Mornington and the creation of two separate shires. Despite the growing animosity between these two main towns, the peninsula would have to wait five years after the coming of the railway for
them to meet on the football field. On 11th June 1887, the Frankston and Mornington clubs were scheduled to meet at “the Point”. Excitement ran high amongst the young men of each town and they were bitterly disappointed when the match was cancelled due to a clerical error on the part of the Frankston secretary. And so it was on Saturday 18th June 1887 that the first senior game of football was finally played on the Mornington Peninsula. With both sides at full strength, and rivalry keen between the two towns, play was tough from the start. The large crowd, probably including many former schoolboys from four years earlier, urged on the home team – but to no avail. Frankston proved too strong for the “Pointers” and ran out easy victors 4 goals to nil. No behinds were recorded as they were not yet included in the rules of the game. The best players for Frankston were Sadlier, Kelso, O’Grady, Bentick, Westaway and Clark. Mornington were well represented by Waycott, Healy, Crawford, Evans sr and jr, W Edwards, Gillott and Martin. So successful was this game that a return bout was scheduled for five weeks later on Saturday 16th July 1887 at Frankston. A close game was expected, as Mornington had practised hard to improve their play, but this was not to be as they were without a couple of their best players from the previous game. Frankston scored 3 goals and sundry behinds to a few behinds only from Mornington. Finally, on 27th August, the two teams met for a third time at Frankston. This time the Mornington team played three men short and went down 3 goals to 1. The game was reportedly enjoyed by all, who agreed that Mornington were definitely improving and should, in time, be successful. As a result of the three Mornington/ Frankston encounters in 1887, football on the Peninsula was finally off to a flying start. The summer months were spent in eager anticipation of the next season. Mornington had signed up a large membership and the town was obviously behind them. Other towns
began to watch developments with interest. By April 1888, both sides were hard at practice in preparation of their resumption of “hostilities”. The Mornington players were improving under the continued leadership of Waycott, their captain and secretary. He arranged to meet Frankston at Mornington on 12th May. Sadlier was still Frankston’s captain and, despite his team being three players short, they were equally confident of success. The morning was so wet that Mornington considered cancelling the game, but the rain ceased at noon and the game got under way at the customary time of three o’clock. Attendance was limited by the weather, but brightened by the appearance of several young ladies from Frankston. Their cheering, no doubt, was greatest for O’Grady when he kicked Frankston’s first goal. After a long passage of good play, Mornington replied with a leveller and then almost immediately a second goal, which was disputed by the Frankston players and subsequently not allowed by the umpire. Frankston then scored their second goal which made them the winners, when dark-
ness caused play to be called. The young Mornington side had proven themselves worthy opponents and, more importantly, good sports when they extended the usual courtesies and entertainment to their visitors before they left for home. The two teams met only once more that year, with the honours again going to Frankston. Frankston went on to play 14 matches in 1888, no doubt helped by their rail link to other teams in Melbourne’s suburbs. Brighton, Essendon District, Dandenong and Victorian Railways South Suburban were amongst their opponents. Mornington hosted, and lost, three games in June 1888 against teams from Melbourne: the Electric Telegraph, North Park (Hotham) and the Wanderers. A win against a team from St Kilda was marred by fisticuffs after the Mornington umpire, H Worrell, was abused by the visitors. South Melbourne Seconds also made the journey to Mornington and beat the locals 7-6 to 4-6. Of greater significance to football on the Mornington Peninsula was the emergence of a Sorrento football club during 1888. A game was played at Portsea against Queenscliff, and a draw was obtained against a com-
bined team from the South Channel, Franklin and Nepean Forts. A challenge was soon issued to the “boss club” – Mornington – and the two teams decided to meet on neutral half-way territory at Dromana. A huge crowd witnessed rough football as Harry Watts’ heavier Sorrento team took the game up to Waycott’s faster and more experienced players. After two hours’ play, a draw was declared at two goals each. The return bout was eagerly awaited. When the Mornington lads travelled to Sorrento, they struggled to adapt their play to the “sand hills” of their opponents – and lost 4 goals to nil. The importance of these games was not lost on the other towns of the peninsula who looked on with envy. Furthermore, the railroad was coming to Mornington and Stony Point next year, and this would create a network of growing towns. Over the summer months, there was much talk of forming new clubs for the 1889 season. It seemed that the secretaries of these new clubs were going to be very busy now that football had finally arrived on the Mornington Peninsula.

My World Cup runneth over By Stuart McCullough *ARGH!* How incredibly tedious. Before a ball has been kicked or a goal scored, I am heartily sick to death of the World Cup. It’s not the fault of the players, as such. Like anyone, I look forward to nearly everything about the game itself – from the thrill of seeing that round ball sail past the goalkeeper’s hands into the net, to the first spurious dive that, should it not attract a penalty would almost certainly win a nomination for ‘Best Actor in a Supporting Role’. Even the threat of a ‘World Cup Theme Song’ that’s about as tuneful as a second hand piece of footwear or the possible return of the ‘Vuvuzela’ are not enough to put me off the world game. No, sir. There is one thing and one thing only that turns me off soccer as a sport, an idea and as a way to make ninety minutes of my life vanish – psychic animals. Let me be clear: I quite like animals, generally speaking. But I detest with a passion that is barely human any creature – whether hooved, clawed or tentacled, that claims it can predict the future. This is especially so for any critter that dares claim that it can tip the winner of this year’s World Cup. As surely as night follows day follows large-scale integrity probe, one the planet’s biggest sporting events never fails to result in an onslaught of psychic animals queuing up to predict everything from the winner of the overall tournament right down to the temperature of the hotdogs. It’s depressing on multiple levels. For starters, there’s the sheer number
of God’s creatures who claim they can predict the future. Then there’s the fact that the world’s media will line up like a bunch of (presumably) non-psychic lemmings to watch as some miserable creature walks, crawls, swims or rolls in the general direction of someone’s national colours. The whole spectacle diminishes man and beast alike. Let’s start with Paul the Octopus.
Every four years this under-achieving octopod was dragged out before the salivating hoards and asked to predict the outcome. Frankly, if the beast was that clever, it wouldn’t be picking a winner by drifting inertly past one country’s flag, it would be up in the commentary box, giving special comments. “So Paul, how did you see that last play?” “Bubble, bubble, bubble,
bubble.” Frankly, if only the humanoids that currently clog up the commentary teams could make remarks as insightful as that, the whole thing would be a lot more enjoyable. I realise that everyone’s got to make a living but this is no way for a selfrespecting octopus to get by. If you had eight hands, you’d want to make the most of it. Do something meaningful. Maybe even start a band. An octopus could probably play everything itself. Drums, bass, guitar and keys – and still have hands left over. Paul the Psychic Octopus should have cashed in his winnings, left his tank, changed his name to ‘Squid Vicious’ and started his own punk band. Or a rhythm and blues band called ‘The Rolling Stonefish’. Or ‘Joe Calamari and the Black Sorrows’. Sadly, Paul won’t be joining us in Basil as he passed away in 2010. I bet he never saw it coming. Truth be told, the only contribution an octopus should be making to the World Cup is as an entrée. Now we are left with a giant, octopus-shaped gap as the World Cup begins and all kinds of creatures rush to fill the void. There’s Big Head the Clairvoyant Turtle (Brazil), Fred the Predicting Ferret (Ukraine), Funtik the Telepathic Pig (also Ukraine) and Sikko the Psychic Guinea Pig (Netherlands). If these jokers really have supernatural powers, they should be solving crimes, not telling us who’ll emerge victorious in a stoush between Cameroon and Lithuania. In fact, they should join forces to form an elite crime-fighting unit, the likes of which
the world has ever seen. Move aside Simon ‘The Mentalist’ Baker; this will be the most exciting multi-creature team effort since a cat, elephant, dog and gorilla joined forces and called themselves The Banana Splits to become the greatest rock and roll band ever known to humanity. Worst of all, all this tomfoolery encourages others. If I never hear another word about Rudy, the Clinker Predicting Gerbil – who can guess with thirty percent accuracy whether the clinker you’re about to bite into will be green, yellow or pink on the inside – then I’ll be happy. The less said about Daryl, The Extrasensory One-Toed Sloth (whose only claim to fame is being able to predict whether the express train from Frankston to Flinders Street will depart on time) the better we’ll all be. It occurs to me that there’s an easier way to World Cup success. Forget training and team drills. That stuff is for suckers. Real success comes in winning over the animals. It all starts with the flag. Just as an electro-blue light is as a siren’s call to insects, we’ve got to come up with a new flag that is innately attractive to futurepredicting animals. When turned loose and given a choice between two flags, Siegfried the Soothsaying Donkey, Trevor the Magical Mexican Fighting Fish, Toby the Wombat-Dynamo and the whole useless menagerie will be irresistibly drawn to ours. Only then, I feel, will victory be certain. Now that’s what I call sport. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Performance THE architect of Canadian rock ‘n’ roll, popular CBC Radio One host and founder of Bachman Turner Overdrive, Randy Bachman, has announced the release of Every Song Tells a Story, a CD/DVD set. The new release will be made available on CD and in both standard definition and Blu-Ray DVD formats. Recorded in April 2013 at Pantages Playhouse Theatre in Winnipeg, Every Song Tells a Story features Bachman in a rare and intimate setting, weaving together the transcendent and iconic hits of the Guess Who and BachmanTurner Overdrive, with the often-humorous stories that originally brought the songs to life. Inspired by his award-winning radio program Vinyl Tap, Bachman takes his master story telling and voluminous musical knowledge on the road and leads fans on a guided journey that encapsulates the past 30 years of popular music presented by one of the greatest rock legends of our time. Songs include No Sugar Tonight, American Woman, No Time, Roll On Down the Highway, You Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet, Hey You, Takin’ Care Business and more. Bachman-Turner Overdrive was recently inducted into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame during the 2014 JUNO Awards in their hometown of Winnipeg, Manitoba. Randy Bachman was a member of Guess Who and Bachman Turner Overdrive. www.randybachman.com *** GLOBAL music stars Joel and Benji Madden, known for their band Good Charlotte, have just released the first single from their forthcoming The Madden Brothers album, Greetings From California (Universal) The single We Are Done is a soulful, 60s inspired tune that they wrote with highly acclaimed producer, Eric Valentine. There has been a phenomenal response to the single from fans and media alike. Having already earned a place in history with Good Charlotte’s radio-
By Gary Turner
ready pop-punk sound captured on such albums as their three-times US platinum (two-times platinum in Australia) breakthrough The Young and the Hopeless and more than 10 million combined sales from their five albums sold worldwide, Joel and Benji were eager to flex their creative muscles with an entirely new project. Good Charlotte is an American rock band from Waldorf, Maryland that formed in 1996. Since 1998, the band’s constant members have been lead vocalist Joel Madden, lead guitarist and back-up vocalist Benji Madden, bass guitarist Paul Thomas, and rhythm guitarist and keyboardist Billy Martin. Their latest drummer and percussionist is Dean Butterworth, who has been a member of the band since 2005. The band has released five studio albums: Good Charlotte (2000), The
Young and the Hopeless (2002), The Chronicles of Life and Death (2004), Good Morning Revival (2007), and Cardiology (2010), as well as two compilations: Greatest Remixes (2008) and Greatest Hits (2010). www.themaddenbrothers.com *** SHOCK Entertainment has released the DVD release of The Long Walk, 10 Years documentary and the Dreamtime at the G match between Essendon and Richmond. Released as a celebration of Australian indigenous culture, the DVD package will be available from 16 June. Celebrating the 10th anniversary of The Long Walk and Dreamtime, The Long Walk – 10 Years captures the inspiring story of Essendon champion Michael Long and his enduring journey to put the lives of indigenous Aus-
tralians back on the national agenda. The documentary reflects on Michael Long’s life, his stand against racism, his role pioneering the AFL’s racial discrimination code and the historic moment when he famously walked to Canberra to meet with then Prime Minister John Howard. The documentary includes interviews with Michael Long, John Howard, Tim Watson, James Hird, Kevin Sheedy, Nathan Lovett-Murray, Chris Long, Beverly Knight, Andrew Demetriou, Martin Flanagan and many more. www.shock.com.au *** SMOOTH FM and Sony Music has released a new 3CD set Music for Mum featuring 50 of the most popular songs from Smooth FM’s artists including classic smooth favourites
ing fellow. His facial glow suggests he just stepped out of a long shower, ever beaming. “Competition will ensure university fees will be kept down.” He cannot believe this, which gives the impression he thinks we are (to use Malcolm Turnbull’s word) demented. We were fed this line way back when our other free advice genius Jeff Kennett sold us on cheaper electricity etc due to competition. Never did it work then, never now. *** I COULD pay $200 a week rent on a Greek Island which includes daily cleaning, free wifi, breakfast and a pool with a balcony view of the Aegean Sea. This equates to free rent allowing for the savings of $150 a week on cigarettes, no water, electricity charges. My laptop would get the daily newspapers and everything else I need, and I can pay any bills via iphone. Mind you I’d miss the kids every so often, probably a good 5 minutes every month, but we all must make sacrifices. *** THE Yanks are into investigating software that can spot sarcasm on social media. Bad enough worrying about a knock on the door from the police as a result of forgotten misdeameanours without ASIO coming the knock knock. John Clarke (Clarke and Dawe) would be in trouble. Let’s hope the Yanks fail in this one. It’s those forgot-
ten years (20-30) I worry about. *** IS there such a thing as a third eye? One or two of my friends maintain the truth as to its existence. Haliburton, back in 1447 said: “An artist has more than two eyes.” Johnson said: “The two most engaging powers of an author is to make new things familiar, and familiar things new.” Perhaps all artists indeed have this third eye but, in fact, it’s surely about seeing things in a different light. After all, is there ever really anything new in human nature? *** WHERE are the train lines to Avalon, Doncaster and Rowville promised before the 2010 election? One example among many leading to the state elections for Daniel Andrews’ Labor Party, but the idea of Andrews’ push to expel Geoff Shaw was surely a stupid one? For misusing his car? You’ve kept your head down for almost four years Daniel. Don’t stuff it up now. *** OK. So I may have had a rough night but nevertheless, I draw out my weekly spending allowance from the hole in the wall ($15) and the lady behind says something about a warning to shield my pin number. I smiled (you can’t get blood out of a stone?) and started to walk away. Her male companion knowingly said to me: “We’re too old to worry about those things.” Speak
for yourself buddy! No doubt a Carlton supporter. As I approach the 10 year mark of living alone I’m coming to terms with the words of John Paul Satre “Hell is other people”. Well, many of them anyway. *** ROUND 11 of AFL football was the indigenous round; one assumes a celebration of the culture and indigenous contribution to AFL football. The Dreamtime game, stories of Michael Long, Nicky Winmar and teams wearing specially designed jumpers with an Aboriginal motive, hopefully adding to the battle of taking a stand on racism. On a cynical level, it pumps up attendances – money. A relatively big success for everyone’s benefit. Feelgood stories, including one on Liam Jurrah, currently serving a 12 week stint in an Alice Springs correctional centre for assaulting his partner. We’re all racist. A question of degree. *** I SUPPOSE if they keep repeating it people will eventually see it as a truism. Re: Independent schools have better teachers, get better academic results and teach better values, manners and morals. I would agree on the academic results, doubtful on the better teachers and the “better values, manners and morals” is 100 per cent pie in the sky nonsense. *** “THE Digital Edge” for the Herald-Sun
like From This Moment On by Shania Twain, Sailing by Christopher Cross, Come Away With Me by Norah Jones, A Touch of Paradise by John Farnham, and many more artists including Bette Midler, Bill Withers, Leo Sayer, Alicia Keys, Kelly Clarkson, Elvis Presley, REO Speedwagon, Bonnie Tyler, Annie Lennox and more. www.smoothfm.com.au *** FRANKSTON South resident and Former Billy Thorpe & the Aztecs drummer Gil Matthews (pictured left with yours truly) will front up as the drummer for Mondo Rock for the forthcoming Mondo Rock tour, Chemistry. The 150 minute show will feature the entire Chemistry album plus all the hits. Aztec Records has released Chemistry, the classic 1981 album, as a double CD digitally remastered by Gil Matthews and featuring rare B-sides, unreleased demos and an extra live disc. The CD also features a booklet with rare photos and inner notes by rock writer Ian McFarlane. Songs include Cool World, State of the Heart and Summer of 81. Mondo Rock will appear at the Palais Theatre, June 28. Tickets 136 100. www.aztecrecords.com.au *** THE movie Avatar is being transformed into an arena spectacular for Cirque du Soleil. Director James Cameron is on board to turn his sci-fi adventure fantasy into a live show that tours internationally. The show is expected to premiere overseas in 2015 before the release of the first of three Avatar sequels currently in pre-production. www.avatarmovie.com
A Grain of Salt MEANDERINGS: Depression is one of the dangers of old age according to my son, and he’s rarely wrong, so I remain wary of this unpredictable illness. I try sitting on my comfortable fence, reading. 25 years since the Tiananmen Square massacres, unsuspecting, unarmed. I think of the sheep drive to Iraq looking for mysterious hidden weapons, another sheep drive for the journey to Afghanistan in search of a bearded fellow and beyond, the Christmas Island Manus Island clashes. Detention facilities for “illegal maritime arrivals”? An abrogation of our responsibilities? Strong GDP results? I think of Scarlett O’Hara. “I’ll think about that tomorrow.” Maybe next week. Maybe Powerball. *** THE biased football scribes (Gerard Whateley, Robbo, Emma Quale), hungry for a Melbourne victory on the Queen’s Birthday, described the hard slog as “boring” but no different to Paul Roos’ early Sydney teams when he coached them to a premiership. It’s all about winning, boys and girls. Bruce McAveney, after St Kilda kicked a goal to lead Collinwood 19 to 8 on Friday 30 May said: “That’s not the start we expected, but I think we’re all pretty happy about it don’t you?” Not all of us Bruce. *** CHRISTOPHER Pyne is a funny look-

Kangas slide continues after fifth loss in row PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt MT ELIZA has taken Langwarrin’s position in the top five after coming from behind to beat the visitors 11.18 (84) to 10.8 (68). The Kangaroos have now lost five matches in a row, all to the teams now in the top bracket. Coach Gavin Artico is entering new territory. He has never lost five matches on the trot in his coaching career. At three quarter time on Saturday, the visitors led by three points. However, whilst the Redlegs trailed, their use of the footy going forward wasn’t great and they squandered many opportunities. The home side finished with an additional 11 shots at goal. When a player needed to stand up in the last quarter for either side to win, it was best on ground Redlegs’ rover Rohan Heasley who stepped up to the plate. He booted two goals in the final term and finished the afternoon with three, while Scott Lockwood made it 10 majors in two weeks with another four. Darren Booth played his best game since returning to his home club from Rye and Mark Wilson finished with a couple of goals in a solid display. The Kangas just can’t afford injuries and they again went into the match without their best forward, Matt Dimkos. Running defender Jarryd Amalfi was also hospitalised. Sean Herdman was very good for the visitors with three goals and Dylan
PAGE 48
Luxa and Michael Parker played well. The Kangas are a light side and as predicted at the beginning of the season, need everything to go right before they can challenge for a place in the top five. Whilst the configuration of the top five may change, the sides in it won’t. In the other big game on the weekend, Bonbeach booted seven goals to three in the third quarter to set-up a 32-point win against Mornington. The Sharks kicked 10 goals to six in the second half after going into the halftime break with only a five-point lead. Shane McDonald was the best player on the ground with three goals for the Sharks while Justin Bennett booted three also. Jason Ferraro and Anthony Raso were dominated around the ground and Dylan Jones continues to dominate in the ruck. Jai Haddock was the best of the Doggies, along with Barry Smeeton and Emilio Bitters. The Doggies have now lost two games on the trot after going on a seven-game winning streak. Three weeks ago the Doggies were a game clear on top of the ladder. They now sit in fourth, a game clear of Mt Eliza and a game off top spot. Top spot is being occupied by Frankston YCW after they recorded a 16.14 (110) to 5.7 (37) win against Karingal. The Stonecats kicked seven goals to zip in the opening quarter and it appeared as though it was going to be a long day for the home side. However, the Bulls booted five goals
Frankston Times 23 June 2014
to nine in the second half. They booted five goals to six in the second and third quarters. David Bodley booted six majors for the Stonecats while Byron Barry and Tony Lester dominated. Tom Matthews was Karingal’s best, along with Tom Wilkinson and George Angelopolous. Chelsea led Pines by 25 points at half time on Saturday. They still held a four point lead at three quarter time. However, the Pythons, led by Beau Hendry and Jamie Messina (three goals), kicked four goals to one in the last to win 14.11 (95) to 12.12 (84). In the week that Pines coach Steve Ryan declared he was stepping down as coach at season’s end, his charges found something when it mattered most. Guy Hendry booted four goals and was one of his team’s best and Shaun White, whilst he didn’t dominate the scoreboard, was outstanding. Brad and Jason Clark were the best of the Gulls. Edithvale-Aspendale booted seven goals to one in the final quarter against Seaford to win 15.7 (97) to 9.8 (62). The reigning premiers trailed by 19 points at quarter time, by 25 points at half time and by two points at the last change. However, Brad Tagg and Jarrod Garth rose to the occasion in the last, finished with five goals each and with Brad Gilder and Matt Kremmer dominating, were able to get the job done. Dean Kemble and Luke Smith with three goals were the best of the Tigers.
Ryan quits, gives Pines backing for new coach to kick club on By Toe Punt PINES coach Steve Ryan has told the club to find themselves a playing coach for season 2015. The former Rye premiership coach is in his third season at the helm of the Pythons, however, he believes the club needs to find new blood for next season. Ryan made it clear that if the club couldn’t find what they were looking for, he was more than happy to coach them again next season. “Football is about football clubs, not individuals,” Ryan said. “I still want to coach and I believe I still have plenty to offer, however, with the way the Pines Football Club is at the moment, they need to go out and get another onfield leader. “I think a captain coach would be fantastic for the club. “It allows the club to invest in a good player, who can also lead the club. “We are so close as a club to playing finals football and all we need is a couple of good recruits. We have all the foundations. “We have arguably the best
facilities of any club in the competition, financially the club is ain a strong position and we have a proud and passionate playing list and supporter base. “I believe the Pines Football Club is a sensational opportunity for someone who wants to take the next step and coach a side.” Ryan said it was important to tell the club as soon as possible. “The club now has 10 weeks before any other club to start looking at what’s around. It gives them a chance to go and watch other games and see who might be worthwhile to target. “If I told the club at the end of the season, they don’t get that opportunity,” Ryan said. Langwarrin did the same thing in 2004. It observed football matches of other clubs and watched and listened to who the onfield leaders were. At the time, Frankston YCW had a defender by the name of Gavin Artico. He was appointed at the end of the 2004 season and won the flag with the Kangas the following season. He is now a two-time premiership coach at two clubs.

Blues show real fight against Rye
In tight and low: Rosebud managed to get over Frankston Bombers (above) while Hastings won against Rye (right) in weekend Nepean League fixtures. Pictures: Andrew Hurst
NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt HASTINGS has moved into the top five after a sensational come from behind win against Rye at RJ Rowley Reserve on Saturday. Nine points down at the seven minute mark of the last quarter, Hastings piled on six of the last seven goals of the game to run away 23 point winners, 20.11 (131) to 17.6 (108). There has been wide criticism of this Hastings outfit and their inability to find a way when the chips are down. However, the Blues had their backs to the wall in the first and last quarters on Saturday and were able to fight their way back into the contest. This has now got to be the Hastings standard. Nothing short of the effort they displayed on the weekend should now be tolerated. The Blues again went into the game without star midfielder Daniel Wishart and 200-gamer Jason Kestle. The Demons got away to a flier, kicking the first three goals of the game before Hastings worked their way back into the contest to trail by just six points at the first change. The Blues were electric in the second quarter, kicking to the Melbourne Rd end, booting seven goals to three for the term. Grant Masterson booted three goals in the second and finished with a season-high six majors. Grant was at his best, leading hard, working hard, dangerous in the air and at ground level
and never missing an opportunity. Luke Hewitt was superb with four goals and is underrated by the opposition and his brother, Ryan, was damaging also. A number of Rye players tried to go with Justin Berry, but he was one of the best players on the ground with three goals, two of them rippers from the boundary line. Josh Mulheron was the difference between the sides. Whilst his opponent, Rye skipper Rhett Sutton was very good around the ground, Mulheron dominated at the stoppages and constantly gave his midfielders first use of the footy. Taylor Stratton was dangerous from half back and finished with two long goals, while Colin McVeigh continued his brilliant season. Down back, Brendan Dunne led from the front, leading and rebounding from the defensive zone, Steve Robb provided plenty of run and Michael Cave did what he was required to do in a stopper role against Ben WintersKerr. Lance Brouwer was sensational on the dangerous Aaron Findlay, beating him in the one on ones and restricting him to two goals. Hastings needed to play team footy for four quarters and that’s exactly what they did. It was the best performance seen from a Hastings outfit since the year they almost won the grand final. Every Hastings player was committed to the cause. The brand of footy the Blues played on the weekend

Taylor, which was a good move, but he didn’t always get it right coming out of defence, resulting in a couple of goals in the last quarter. It was a very entertaining game of footy, the most entertaining for the round. It was played at a furious pace, 37 goals were kicked, there were patches of brilliance from both sides and both are worthy finals contenders. The difference between the sides was one of them was willing to do anything for a teammate and the team to get the desired result and the other generally looked after themselves first. Crib Point’s Glenn Boyd booted eight goals in the first half and five majors in the second hour to finish with 13 of his side’s 22 against Tyabb. The Magpies had 55 (22.33) shots at goal to the Yabbies’ 13, winning 165 to 48. Dean Warry and Brad Arnold dominated in the win for the Pies. Rohan West and Justin Volk were the best of the Yabbies while Jake Anderson finished with two goals. Sorrento restricted Devon Meadows to just two scoring shots in the first three quarters on Saturday before going on to win 18.13 (121) to 4.2 (26). Leigh Poholke finished with nine goals for the Sharks to move to 45 for the season, while Ryan Williams and Leigh Treeby dominated. Jack Hazendonk was the best of the Panthers, while Ash Adams and Pat Harmes worked hard over four quarters. Dromana had little trouble beating
is capable of beating any side, including Dromana away from home this week. The same can’t be said for Rye. They play like individuals, not a team, and it was clearly evident. There was a lot of finger pointing going on between players, especially from those who are new to the club. Ryan Semmel, whilst terribly gifted, constantly gets himself into trouble for either over using the footy or looking for one of his brothers whenever he gets it. He gets it heaps of times and if he gave first option, Rye could have won the game. Make no mistake, when Ryan busts a pack and gets into open spaces, he looks as good as any player in the past 20 years in the comp. There’s a time though to listen to what’s going on around you and giving off the footy. Bad decision making and turnovers also cost the Demons in the heat of the battle. The Rye midfield was generally beaten and, to be frank, didn’t work hard enough or respect the opposition. They were unaccountable for the most part. Jake Semmel was clearly Rye’s best with two goals and he spent time running with Berry. Andrew Dean, a natural forward, was wasted on the wing or across half back. Jay Bruno worked tirelessly through the middle. Ben Holmes spent the second half down back to help Ryan

Somerville, restricting the Eagles to just one goal in the first three quarters before going on to win 23.16 (154) to 3.15 (33). Anthony Bruhn booted four goals for the winners while a further nine players contributed on the scoreboard. Callan Park played his best game since crossing from the Alberton League while Adam Coyle and Ash Waterstone were also amongst the best. Justin Farrelly was the best of the Eagles, along with Kane McKenzie and Jake Ryan. A seven goal third quarter saw Rosebud beat Frankston Bombers 16.11 (107) to 10.11 (71). Glen Peterson booted four goals in a near best on ground performance while Ryan Spooner and Jack Jarman dominated. Jay Reynolds booted three for the Bombers while skipper Jay Page collected the three votes. In the final game, much like Rosebud, Red Hill kicked seven goals in the third quarter to set up a 17.14 (116) to 13.10 (88) win over Pearcedale. Jarryd Eames booted four and Jarryd Douglas three for the Hillmen while Matt Hyden and Jake Mitchell dominated. Jamie McCall is also doing a sensational job for the Hillmen in the ruck and is in career-best form. Dean Janssen and Pat Cadd were the best of the Panthers while Pat Heijden kicked four goals.
