BEAT THE PEAK TO BRING ROAD DEATHS DOWN! Keep Sunday 8th November free so you can â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;beat the peak to bring road deaths downâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. Join more than 2,000 people as they tackle The Arthurs Seat Challenge, a 6.7km sea to summit fun-run starting at the Rosebud Pier and ďŹ nishing at the top of Arthurs Seat, Seawinds Gardens. The Arthurs Seat Challenge is a renowned local event, held at one of the most iconic locations on the Mornington Peninsula. The Challenge aims to promote the proďŹ le of Fit2Drive (F2D), a best practice road safety education program with event proceeds supporting the implementation of the program at secondary schools across the Mornington Peninsula, Westernport and Frankston areas. According to the Transport Accident Commission (TAC), in 2014, 21 per cent of drivers killed were aged between 18 and 25 years, however, this age group represents only around 14 per cent of Victorian licence holders. Although this is the lowest proportion of young drivers killed since 1987 (down from 110 deaths to 24), the fact still remains that our young people are 30 times more likely to crash when they start driving on their P-plates. Research also shows that the majority of these incidents are preventable. Young drivers are inexperienced and often make poor decisions, with some crashes attributed to high risk factors such as speed, alcohol and distractions linked to the presence of multiple passengers. In comparison to more experienced drivers, 18-25 year olds are three times more likely to be killed in a car crash. One way to change this is to provide good practice and relevant road safety education in schools.

F2D is a distinctive road safety program that focuses on changing attitudes and behaviours in Year 11 students with trained university undergraduates in a half-day program to help young local drivers and passengers develop strategies to deal with risky situations. Originally established for schools in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula area, F2D is now delivered to more than 200 secondary education providers across Victoria. The F2D program is run with the support of many community groups, the TAC, Victoria Police, VicRoads, RACV and the Department of Education and Training, and reaches some 30,000 young people annually, 4,000 of whom come from Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula. The program emulates the philosophy that it is essential to enable and encourage young people to explore and accept challenges but also to take ownership and responsibility for their own and their peersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; safety. At the heart of F2D is the Arthurs Seat Challenge, which is an opportunity for schools, families and the local community to rally together and raise awareness of the over-representation of young people in road crashes in the hope we can alleviate the pain road trauma causes schools and local communities. This year we invite you to â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;run UP the hill to bring road deaths DOWNâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, in direct support of the TACâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Safer P-Plater Campaign â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;getting through the redâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;.

Elly Jackson Junior Female Champion 2014

Sea to Summit Success in 2015 Last year’s race was one for breaking records, with more than 2000 participants taking part in the most successful Arthurs Seat Challenge to date. The course of 6.7km started at the Rosebud Jetty and finished at the summit of Arthurs Seat at Seawinds Gardens. Event Ambassador and Commonwealth Games Marathon Runner, Sarah Klein, fired the starter’s gun as people of all ages, backgrounds and fitness levels took off on the challenging course. Funds raised from the success of the 2014 event will provide even greater support to schools in meeting the cost of every Fit 2 Drive workshop held at all secondary schools on the Mornington Peninsula, Westernport and Frankston areas for the coming year. The first runner over the line was Craig Appleby, our new record holder, glided across the line in 25 minutes and 15 seconds. Coming in second was Cameron Hall followed by Nathan Barry, who led the pack early in the race to snaffle third place. Our first female placegetter Rebecca Rosel looked strong as she charged up the hill, crossing the line with a smile and a time of 29 minutes and 59 seconds. Twins, Elly and Sarah Jackson took second and third place for the women’s overall with times of 30 minutes 30 seconds and 30 minutes 59 seconds respectively, which also won them first and second place Junior Females. Other noteworthy efforts include Liam Hemingway our Under 18 Male Champion, followed closely by Brodie Lynch who again took out the title of Under 15 Male Champion. The weather was perfect for running or walking up the steep summit, which at its peak has a whopping 9.5% gradient and the climb itself is over 3km. Our long-time supporters, parliamentarians Mr Greg Hunt and Mr Martin Dixon even found themselves running PBs! Our major sponsors all had teams participating with large contingents from Bluescope Steel, Bendigo Bank, and Nicholas Lynch Real Estate who took out the title for Largest Community Team with over 200 in their ranks, which also helped them clinch the trophy for Fastest Team up the mountain. The School Group Winners were Elisabeth Murdoch College. Competitors were red-faced and at times, out of breath, but there was a great sense of comradery and sportsmanship on show, even between those more serious and competitive runners. Generous help from our volunteer support crew was also invaluable and we thank our local schools and organisations like Sorrento SES and Rotary, Langwarrin Men’s Shed and the Southern Peninsula Classic and Historic Car Club for their tireless help on race day. The Arthurs Seat Challenge is a wonderful annual event, especially for families, schools and sporting groups to come together and raise community awareness about the overrepresentation of young people in road crashes. We look forward to 2015 and hope to see even more people running UP the hill to bring road deaths DOWN. Registrations are now open at www.arthursseatchallenge.com.au

All aboard station plan push Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Council is on board with state government plans to redevelop the Frankston train station precinct but is also pushing for more money to be invested in the project, and the electrification of the rail line to Baxter. Council also wants the area around the transport interchange to be opened up for use as “green public open space” to showcase Frankston and reinvigorate the city centre. Councillors unanimously backed council’s official submission to the Frankston Station Precinct Taskforce, established by the state government to hear submissions about the $50 million redevelopment project. Council hopes more state funds can be provided – by the Andrews government and future governments - to fully redevelop the train station and its surrounds. The mayor Cr Sandra Mayer noted council has been lobbying for a major revamp of the train station for 40 years. “We don’t want a new lick of paint this time,” she said. “After all the talking, the council and the community are looking to the other levels of government and those in the private sector who may join us to put a shovel in the ground to get something happening. This is the heart

of Frankston and everyone within the municipality wants to see the area become alive and be vibrant and create employment.” Labor has pledged $50 million to the station revamp and is honouring a previous Coalition government commitment to spend $13 million to revitalise Young St. An additional $46.9 million will fund a first stage of upgrades to the Frankston campus of Chisholm TAFE. A council officers report noted similar transport hub redevelopments at Dandenong, Footscray and Ringwood had started with a similar funding amount to the Frankston project but had leveraged off further public and private partnerships to expand the scope of redevelopment. “The Ringwood project, for example, started as a $66 million station redevelopment and leveraged from this a $575 million Eastland redevelopment and $60 million Costco development,” the report stated. “At a time when public finances are under pressure, the most successful redevelopment projects are those that come at little or no cost to government. In this way, under-utilised or prime sites may be unlocked for private sector investment to stimulate economic activity and the private sector can do what it does best – investing, employing and growing the economy.” Continued Page 10

Showcase for singing talent Dashboard cash

stash fails to pay

Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au A SEAFORD music school keen to give local singers a venue in which to demonstrate their talents started The Voice of Frankston in 2013 and its success has snowballed. “I’m a singer and I wanted to give other singers a go, too,” Fun-key Music director Jenny Wilkinson said. “I wanted to showcase their talent.” The Voice attracted 110 entrants in first year and 125 last year and organisers are hoping for even more this year. Aiming to “give Frankston a boost” and rescue it from its “bad rap”, Ms Wilkinson said: “When we were starting we had singers coming through [the school] and we thought there must be lots of others out there just wanting the opportunity to perform. “We had the idea of hosting a talent quest with judges and support from local businesses.” In the lead-up to the annual contest at the Heversham Drive headquarters, entrants send in CDs of their performances to give the judges a heads up on their singing skills – a kind of blind audition. “Easy year the standard is amazing,” Ms Wilkinson said. “At one stage the judges were giving 9, 9, 9 early on until I said ‘Give yourselves some room’,” she said, knowing the standard was likely to get even better. Past winner Cail Baroni has written songs for Sony Music Australia’s Jai Waitford and Hit Makers Australia and is planning to release his album at the grand final of this year’s event. He is

also singer-songwriter with up-andcoming band The Knowing. “Whether you are a budding young singer, an aspiring adult performer or a senior with a passion for entertaining, join in and celebrate your talent in our solo artist singing competition,” Ms Wilkinson said. The competition is open to everyone who lives, works or studies within the City of Frankston and Mornington Peninsula. It’s so family friendly that entrants are offered mentoring sessions between performances to provide feedback and constructive advice to help get through the process. Applicants must register on the Funkey music website. Video auditions will be accepted until 25 August. Twenty-five acts will be chosen to perform in the semi-final concert on 6 September at the Frankston Arts Centre. Ten or 12 of these performers will then progress to the grand final

on 13 September at the same venue. Finalists will receive a $100 fun-key music voucher plus special offers from Frankston and Peninsula businesses. All semi-finalists will receive vouchers from local businesses and a combined prize pool of more than $10,000 will be shared by grand final winners – as well as a professional recording, film clip, photo shoot and performance opportunities. The event will be filmed for Frankston TV and the grand final will be broadcast live by RPPFM. Fun-key music is a private music studio, established in 1997 to teach singing and performance skills to students in Seaford. It conducts private singing, piano, guitar and group singing classes Monday to Thursday and some school-based sessions in Seaford and across the peninsula. Call 9786 3104 for details.

AN audacious attempt to avoid a parking fine looks set to fail. A photograph of coins left on the dashboard of a car at Young St East car park has been widely circulated on social media sites such as Facebook this month amid calls for Frankston Council to drop a parking fine. A note next to the coins stated: ‘MACHINE DIDN’T TAKE MY COINS’. The cash and message about the malfunctioning parking meter failed to deter a council parking officer from slapping an infringement notice on the car’s windscreen. Social media users urged council to drop the $74 fine but there seems little chance that this will happen. Council CEO Dennis Hovenden said every parking machine in the municipality clearly displays a telephone

number to call to report faults. “There were no reports of the machine in question being faulty on that day,” he said. “When a fault is reported the driver’s details are recorded in case an infringement is later issues so it can be reviewed.” Mr Hovenden said infringements can be contested by lodging an appeal with council. “Even in the instance of a faulty machine, coins on the dashboard are not considered a valid attempt to purchase a ticket, the fault must be reported.” A Facebook reader commented: “These are the cases you hope will end up in court and hopefully the newspaper. Surely the council don’t want to be made to look foolish in public.” Neil Walker

Fine time: This note and coins look unlikely to convince council to overturn a parking fine, also pictured, at a Young St car park.

Conference calls on Canberra trip Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THREE Frankston Council representatives headed to Canberra this month for the National General Assembly hosted by the Australian Local Government Association. Mayor Cr Sandra Mayer, Cr Darrel Taylor and Cr James Dooley attended the three-day annual conference for council delegates from across the nation on 14-17 June. Cr Mayer described the yearly meeting as “a fantastic opportunity” for council to meet federal government ministers and their staff to highlight challenges faced by the Frankston community. “The councillors participated in a very

hectic schedule over the course of the conference ,” Cr Mayer said. “The event was a fantastic opportunity to both network and to advocate for key priorities relevant to both Frankston City and the entire South East Melbourne region, to support jobs creation opportunities, regional recreational and health needs and major infrastructure projects.” Councillors met with federal ministers and their representatives to discuss the Frankston Transit Interchange project, the need to establish a Health and Human Services hub in Frankston and funding for the Frankston Basketball Stadium. Council also lobbied for the National Broadband Network to be rolled out across the municipality to support busi-

nesses and jobs creation. Deputy Prime Minister and Infrastructure and Regional Development Minister Warren Truss addressed the assembly delegates and federal Environment Minister Greg Hunt was also among the speakers. Australian of the Year Rosie Batty addressed the delegates about The Luke Batty Foundation’s Never Alone campaign to help women and children affected by family violence. The cost to have the three Frankston representatives attend the assembly was $7617, in the same financial ballpark as neighbouring southeast councils Mornington Peninsula Shire and Kingston who spent $7028 and $7682 respectively on travel and accommodation to send three representatives each to Canberra.

Assault on bus to Frankston POLICE are investigating an unprovoked assault on a Frankston-bound bus on Sunday 24 May. A 28-year-old man and a 22-year-old man on the late-night bus which left Swanston St, Melbourne, about 5.30am, were threatened and assaulted by two other men on the journey. Police believe the first offender got on the bus in the CBD just after 5.30am while the second got on at 5.52am in St Kilda. Soon after, the men began verbally threatening “to kill” the victims. The situation quickly escalated and the second man assaulted the two victims, causing minor injuries. The first man continued to make death threats towards both commuters and stood up, challenging them to fight. The victims moved to the front of the bus and remained there until their attackers got off at Moorabbin station around 6.12am. Moorabbin police are investigating the incident

and have released CCTV footage and images of two men they believe may be able to assist with their investigation. One is described as southern European, in his 20s, about 178cm tall with short black hair and goatee. He was wearing a grey fedora style broad brim hat, dark coat, light shirt and white singlet. The other man is Caucasian, in his 20s, about 180cm tall with straight dark hair and long fringe. He was wearing a blue ‘snap back’ style baseball cap, dark coat, light shirt and light jeans. Police believe the men knew each other. They would also like to speak to a young blonde woman seen chatting to the second man on the bus. It’s believed she may be able to help identify him. Anyone with information about the assault is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or make a confidential report at crimestoppersvic. com.au

Arrest over attempted servo robbery

Start Your Own Business By De-cluttering Your Home with eBay

A 15 YEAR OLD Carrum youth has been arrested in connection with an attempted armed robbery at a Hastings service station on Friday 5 June. Police will allege the youth was the getaway driver in the raid at the United service station, Frankston-Flinders Rd, about 2am. In the incident, a man carrying a tyre iron entered the servo and approached the counter demanding money. But, as he attempted to jump the counter, the 25-year-old store attendant gamely pushed him backwards. The man swung the tyre iron, narrowly missing the attendant’s head. The brave attendant then ran around the counter and gave chase as his assailant ran out of the store. He was driven away in a waiting late model white Holden station wagon. The would-be robber has not been found, however, police are confident they know who he is. Detective Senior Constable Darren Paxton said the youth had been charged with attempted armed robbery, theft of a motor car, theft from a motor car, unlicensed driving, and deception. He has been remanded at the Melbourne Juvenile Justice Centre to appear in Frankston Children’s Court at a later date.

Couple arrested A YOUNG Frankston couple arrested in a stolen car in Mt Eliza last week are facing a combined 65 charges. Frankston and Dandenong detectives intercepted a man, 19, and a girl, 16, at 6.30am Tuesday near Two Bays Rd. The man is facing 51 charges and the girl 14 charges. These relate to theft from motor cars, theft of motor cars, petrol drive-offs and other traffic matters. He is also charged with reckless conduct endangering serious injury, which relates to his alleged driving off when police at-

tempted to arrest him in the Frankston area. Detective Sergeant Miro Majstorovic, of Frankston CIU, said the pair had been remanded in custody. The girl will appear at Frankston Children’s Court on 2 July and the man on 20 July.

Credit card theft arrest POLICE have arrested a 16-year-old Frankston girl and 19-year-old Frankston man in relation to the use of a stolen credit card in Pakenham on Wednesday 17 June. It is believed they used the card to buy items at various outlets in Pakenham. The man and girl have both been charged with numerous offences, including theft of a motor vehicle, theft from a motor vehicle, and deception. They have both been remanded in custody to appear in court at a later date.

Rooming house rejected Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au A BOARDING house operating since late last year in Karingal Dv will not be allowed to take in more tenants and some residents will be forced to leave. At last week’s public council meeting Councillors unanimously rejected an application to have 12 tenants reside at 177 Karingal Dv, Frankston. Council planning approval is not required to house up to ten occupants. A council officers report had recommended the permit be granted submit to conditions to be met by the boarding house owner. Owner Richard Casley admitted he had “made mistakes in the process I’ve followed so far” but approving the permit would have provide an individual room to each of the 12 tenants living at the house instead of sharing eight rooms. Neighbours have complained to council about anti-social behavior at the premises and councillors took this into consideration when deciding to overrule the advice provided by council officers. Residents said police have been called to incidents at the Karingal Dv property on several occasions. Seaford Community Committee chairman Noel Tudball spoke in favour of the boarding house application for the sake of the tenants. “The people in this rooming house appear to be happy and safe. They have a roof over their head and they’re not on the streets.”

Mr Casley said no manager was on site to oversee the boarding house. He expected neighbouring residents to contact him if there is any trouble. The council officers report noted: “The applicant has a number of Rooming Houses registered at other locations within Frankston, where a number of issues have arisen. In particular, there have been concerns raised by residents in proximity to these sites regarding anti-social behaviour of tenants and a loss of amenity due to the appearance of these properties or level of noise created. These sites range in size and accommodate between 6 and 9 tenants each, where no planning approval is required.” Cr Glenn Aitken said “there is no great joy” in rejecting an application for a rooming house but those who live in the same street deserve “a duty of care” from council, as do those who live in rooming houses, mostly due to unfortunate circumstances. Council is preparing to trial a “Magpies Nest” model to offer minimal rent accommodation to homeless people, based on a similar initiative by Collingwood Football Club and the Salvation Army in the northern suburbs of Melbourne (‘Magpies plan spreads its wings’, The Times 1/4/15). That model will see a maximum of three occupants in three separate homes and a case manager to support all nine residents. Cr Colin Hampton said there are two rooming houses situated near his home but they are well managed. “Unfortunately state governments – both Labor and Liberal – haven’t

had the foresight to put the management plan into conditions of rooming houses. “If they had done this we would not have the problems that we’ve had in this state over the period of time rooming houses have been allowed to flourish.” Rooming houses are registered with Consumer Affairs Victoria and rooming house operators must comply with minimum standards “related to privacy, security, safety and amenity in rooming houses”.

Dredge threat to Heads if port lease goes ahead Mike Hast mike@baysidenews.com.au PORT Phillip Heads will have to be widened and deepened with a massive project that will make the controversial 2008-09 dredging pale into insignificance if the state government goes ahead with a 70-year lease of the Port of Melbourne, says peninsula MP Martin Dixon. Mr Dixon was speaking in the Parliament last week as the controversy over the government’s port bill reached fever pitch with the Opposition and Greens vowing to block the bill in the Upper House. The Port of Melbourne Lease Transaction Bill 2015 passed the Lower House last Thursday but the government does not have the numbers in the Upper House, and Treasurer Tim Pallas has threatened to bypass the Parliament. The government needs the port lease money – as much as $7 billion – to pay for removal of 50 level crossings as well as “building Melbourne Metro, the West Gate Distributor and other important transport initiatives”, a government spokesman said. The Opposition says the bill would “lead to a monopoly on the port’s ownership until 2090” and stop building of a new port at Hastings or on the western shore of Port Phillip between Werribee and Geelong as the government would have to pay compensation if a second container port was developed during the term of the lease. But figures accepted by both Labor and the Coalition when a second port was proposed show the Port of Melbourne will be at capacity in about

15 years and a second container port would complement rather than compete with Melbourne’s existing port. The company that leases the Port of Melbourne could very well tender to build and operate the second port. Mr Dixon, who alone among Liberal MPs in the lead-up to the 2006 state election opposed the 2008-09 dredging, said the state government would ensure “the destruction of Port Phillip Heads Marine National Park” if the port lease went ahead. “The Port of Melbourne is unable

to accept the current fleet of container ships with 16-metre drafts unless The Heads are widened and deepened with a massive dredging project that will make the controversial 2008-09 dredging pale into insignificance,” he said. “Former Port of Melbourne CEO Stephen Bradford conservatively estimated such blasting and dredging works would increase the high tide level in Port Phillip by 150mm [6 inches] – clearly enough to decimate our peninsula coastline. “Jobs and long-term business invest-

ment on the peninsula have all but dried up under Labor as they have gutted the Port of Hastings Development Authority before even establishing their much-touted Infrastructure Victoria advisory panel. “I encourage residents and visitors to pick up copies of a petition I am circulating that demands this crazy proposal is stopped and this irresponsible environmental and economic damage to the Mornington Peninsula is prevented.” Mr Dixon said predicted larger con-

tainer ships would need 16 metres of depth not the existing 14 metres at The Heads, and about 25 million cubic metres would have to be removed from the entrance as well as 75 million cubic metres from shipping channels. He said a total of 25 million cubic metres was removed from all parts of Port Phillip in 2008-09. Rejecting expansion of the Port of Hastings would cost 15,000 jobs over the next decade. “I have the fourthpoorest electorate in the state; my electorate has the fourth-lowest income in the state. The people in my community need jobs; they need careers.” The Opposition’s David Hodgett, the ports minister in the Napthine government, said “Daniel Andrews and Tim Richardson are failing to stand up for the local community and rule out any blasting of The Heads and dredging of Port Phillip. Andrews has botched the contract for the lease of the Port of Melbourne and that would lock in dire environmental consequences around Port Phillip”. Mr Pallas reportedly said leasing the port “means we can pay for the removal of our 50 worst level crossings, create thousands of jobs, get Victorians home safer and sooner, and still protect our AAA credit rating.”

Two-way violence It was illuminating to read the letter from Tony Nicholl (‘Dads in Distress’, The Times 22/6/15) where he pointed out the fact that women perpetrate a lot “family violence” on men as well as the other way around. It is refreshing to see a newspaper publish this side of the story, given that for years all I ever seem to have read on the subject is that almost every other husband is cruel and violent. Such brainwashing has now caused [the establishment of] a political Family Violence Commission where, presumably, the wisdom of Solomon will be applied to events in the bedroom and private marriages. It is to be fervently hoped that the

outcomes will not be more ways to put men into jail, more intervention orders to kick husbands out of their own homes, prevent reconciliation, ruin careers, ruin lives, and suffer the little children. For the record, I am an old bloke, married for 48 years, happy, and I’ve seen it all. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

After the successful destruction of much of Australia’s manufacturing base, our present government’s aim is set on the education system. But it all makes sense, we really don’t need any educated people for the future economy of fruit picking and vegetable harvesting for the rich nations to our north.

These nations have of course chosen to educate their people and build their manufacturing and are planning their future in the 21st century with a little more vision than our anti-science government. And our mushroom population keeps these people in power. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring

of swimming lessons is extreme and out of reach for a lot of families. School swimming is not enough.

Full steam ahead for station plan

Continued from Page 1 Council hopes the train station precinct can become a mixed use area for retail, offices and accommodation. Council’s vision for the precinct includes a library and learning centre, a multi-level car park and walkways connecting Chisholm TAFE to the station and the city centre. Cr Mayer told The Times that $60 million “seems to be the standard amount that seems to go to transport interchange upgrades but we need to leverage off that money to get some private investment”. The Labor state government announced last week that train stations at St Albans, Ginifer and Heatherdale will be rebuilt underground with $480 million in total funding to include $151 million from the federal government. “We want all three levels of government to work closely together on

this,” Cr Mayer said. Council will lobby the state and federal governments to further invest in the Frankston transport interchange redevelopment as a major infrastructure project. “I’m pretty hopeful ... I think all of the stakeholders are on board and everyone is really excited about changing the face of Frankston,” Cr Mayer said. Council is speaking to the Property Council of Victoria and may relocate council offices to the station precinct. The new transport hub should be “complemented by elements of design excellence that will be achieved through the introduction of bespoke lighting and seating for commuters in a light-filled precinct”, according to the council officers report. Architecture aficionado Cr Glenn Aitken urged the state government to make the look and feel of the transport interchange a high priority. “The last thing I want to see come out of this precinct is a tangle of sweaty humanity entwined with concrete and steel and a sense of hopelessness and despair,” he said. See economicdevelopment.vic.gov. au/frankston-station-precinct-redevelopment for details of the transport interchange redevelopment project. Public submissions, including the completion of an online survey, are open until Friday 3 July, 5pm. The project team can be emailed at frankston. station@ecodev.vic.gov.au

Welcome, babies

Kelli & Adrian, left, Natasha & Vivaan and Maddie & Summer-Rose enjoyed the Welcoming Babies Ceremony at Seaford Community Centre last week. “The day was all about welcoming our newest residents – and also about helping residents to build and grow those support networks,” Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer said. “The days give residents an opportunity to chat to council staff and learn about the early years’ support services available to residents, including maternal and child health, playgroups, child care, kindergarten and toy libraries.” Seaford families with a baby born in the past 12 months were invited to join in the ceremony.

NEWS DESK

MP claims Labor plans ‘toxic dump’ at Hastings Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au HASTINGS MP Neale Burgess is predicting a dark future for Hastings because of the state government’s decision to increasingly use Western Port as a “bulk” port. The scaled-down Port of Hastings Development Authority has swung its focus from preparing for a container port to promoting its use for bulk products, such as LNG (liquefied natural gas), petroleum products and brown coal. Hastings is already used to import and export petroleum and gas products and Mr Burgess accuses the government of having “secret plans” that will lead to Western Port being “a toxic dumping ground”, damaging lifestyles and cutting property values Ports Minister Luke Donnellan last month said he expects the PoHDA “to chase opportunities in bulk to continue to grow the port down there”. “There are enormous opportunities, obviously, in relation to storage of petroleum, because we are importing so much petroleum now,” Mr Donnellan told the Public Accounts and Estimates Committee on 22 May. “I would also like to see [the PoHDA] look at chasing down business in the energy sector, because the Latrobe Valley has enormous brown coal deposits, gas and so forth.

“I would really like to see the port of Hastings grow very quickly, because potentially that is the appropriate port to bring things in and out of. That is really where we are up to with the port of Hastings.” Mr Donnellan said there was no need to rush into making a decision on where to a new container port as “we probably would not need a second port until about 2045, maybe beyond”. He said Infrastructure Victoria – to be established next year – would investigate if Bay West, in Port Phillip, or Hastings was the best site for a second port “The west has enormous advantages in relation to regional rail and major highways, whereas Hastings has enormous advantage in relation to a deep sea port. But the problem with Hastings is it does not have the road and the rail links,” he said. “I do not think either particular option is easy. I think we really need a thorough and rigorous analysis by Infrastructure Victoria — by economists, transport planners and the like — to actually get it right. “I think we need to, as much as we can, put it into an independent entity to do it, not to put it into the hands of politicians.” With Hasting effectively out of the picture for a container port for at least a further 30 years, Mr Burgess has accused the state government of having

“secret plans” for Hastings. “Mr Donnellan stated that Labor will use the Port of Hastings for shipping brown coal,” Mr Burgess has told The News. He says the brown coal will be piped as slurry to a “drying plant” at Hastings. Mr Burgess said the coal industry had unsuccessfully “pushed and pushed” for the previous Liberal/National government to back the project. “We said no, but I don’t think people understand what bulk means,” he said. “There was no mention of Labor’s plan to use Western Port as a toxic dumping ground during the election. “The Brumby government planned to turn Hastings into a bulk port for coal, bitumen and urea and, when it lost government, it had already given Boral the go ahead to build a bitumen plant on the foreshore at Crib Point.” Mr Burgess said the bitumen plant “was only stopped when the Coalition was elected in November 2010”. The decision to not go ahead with a container port at Hastings meant “many thousands of jobs” had been lost to the area. “If Labor succeeds in turning Western Port into its toxic dumping ground, our local amenity and life style will be permanently damaged, property values will be slashed, businesses will be ruined and tourists will turn away from our part of the peninsula in their droves.”

Making a point: Hastings MP Neale Burgess, left, and former ports minister David Hodgett last week accused the labor state government of abandonning a container port in favour of bringing “toxic” industries to Hastings. Picture: Gary Sissons

HEALTHCARE PROFESSIONALS St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital Our patients story - Andy Baker Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m a 45 year old husband, brother, son, uncle and father of three. I have lived on the Mornington Peninsula for over 10 years with my beautiful family and, until recently, our story was very normal and typical of many other Australian families. Then, in November 2013, I started feeling short of breath following a holiday overseas. By Christmas I was quite unwell and by February I was in hospital requiring 24 hour oxygen supply and undergoing a series of tests and treatments. It became apparent that , KDG VHYHUH RQVHW RI ÂżEURVLV RI WKH lungs, probably triggered by an autoimmune system reaction to bacteria. Quite rare, and very serious. This was a really frightening time for my family and I. Phrases like â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chronic Conditionâ&#x20AC;?, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Chemotherapyâ&#x20AC;?, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Terminal diseaseâ&#x20AC;?, â&#x20AC;&#x153;Lung Transplantâ&#x20AC;? began to enter our vocabulary. Four months earlier I had been happily running around enjoying my holiday. It was after a long period in local hospitals and two spells in ICU that my doctor and I discussed the opportunity to continue my care at St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital located in Frankston. I was out of immediate danger but facing a period of life that neither my family nor I were prepared for. I was physically weak, frightened, vulnerable and ill-prepared but determined to survive. My time as an inpatient at St John of

God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital (SJGFRH) was a real turning point for me. Firstly I had people caring for me physically. Everything at this stage had become quite challenging. Having very low oxygen production, getting dressed was very hard indeed. The difference for me came from the support SJGFRH gave me to empower myself and take control of as much of my life as possible. They provided education regarding the medication and treatments I was receiving; advice on oxygen and mobility equipment hire and use plus the assistance from their social work team about the help that was available to me, outside of the hospital. They taught me and helped me to practice techniques to conserve energy whilst doing basic tasks, showed me a routine of exercise which was controlled and safe and ways to monitor my health with methods IRU PDQDJLQJ GLIÂżFXOW VLWXDWLRQV Their pastoral service team provided emotional support which really focused my mind and spirit towards a positive RXWFRPH 0\ OLWWOH GRJ $OÂżH ZDV HYHQ able to come and visit! When it came time to return home, my ZLIH DQG , IHOW PXFK PRUH FRQÂżGHQW DQG prepared for the next phase. Staff from SJGFRH had already visited my home and all of the equipment had been setup to continue my care at home. What was extra special was that the pulmonary

rehabilitation team had organised for me to continue as an outpatient visiting the hospital twice a week. Here I joined a small group of people enjoying a mix of education and physiotherapy. Of course the people there became friends too. We all had stories to tell and advice to share. The whole care team continued to be involved right throughout the months that followed. Even the ladies at the snack kiosk and the particularly special person at reception were engaged personally in my journey and were all part of my whole well-being.

and humbled by the generosity of our community and the people who serve in it.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now 8 months later and I am strong, healthy, happy and treasuring life. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m back at work and pretty much doing all the things that fathers, husbands, brothers, uncles and sons do.

The medical treatments were not reversing any damage and, in fact, the ÂżEURVLV ZDV VSUHDGLQJ TXLFNO\ 0\ lungs were dying, and we had explored all options except one, a lung transplant. My case was now being managed by the amazing lung transplant team at The Alfred Hospital. My pre-transplant preparation became a mix of extensive medical testing and monitoring at The Alfred, combined with on-going outpatient programs at SJGFRH. I was wheelchair bound and hardly able to stand, but still enjoying very gentle movement and encouragement in the SJGFRH gym. Then, I got â&#x20AC;&#x153;the callâ&#x20AC;? in September at 6:30 am. I needed to head straight to Hospital and prepare for immediate double lung transplant. 24 hours later I was awoken, breathing on my own, slightly disoriented and a bit sore but with the realisation that my life had been saved. Saved by the surgeons, doctors and nurses at the Alfred, saved by the strength given to me by the whole team at St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital,

Frankston Times 29 June 2015

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Benjamin Baxter dead at 75 years Compiled by Melissa Walsh WE are compelled to hold over a number of items of news till our next issue, owing to pressure on our space. *** MR Sheridan received the welcome news on Monday, by cable, from his son Percy, from the front, dated June 24th, that he was quite well. *** WE call special attention to an advertisement in another column in connection with the Recruiting movement. It will be seen that energetic action has been taken since the preliminary public meeting was held in Frankston on Monday evening last. It will be noted also that meetings will be held at Frankston, Wednesday June 7th; Somerville, Thursday June 8th; Hastings, Friday June 9th; at 8 p.m. The Hon Sec, Dr Plowman, is in correspondence with distinguished Public Men to address the meetings. Sufficient time has not elapsed for replies to have been received from most of them but the services of Sir William Irvine M.P. have been secured for Frankston and of the Hon A. Downward M.L A. for Hastings. At Frankston, the Frankston Brass Band has kindly given their services to play for the audience and a short programme of Patriotic music has been arranged. No charge for admission will be made, and it is to be hoped that there will be crowded houses at each meeting. In fact, everyone who has the welfare of his country at heart, or who

is actuated by patriotic feeling should be present at one, or all the meetings. All letters on the subject should be addressed to the Hon Secretary, Dr Plowman. *** THE Frankston Dramatic Club has consented to give an entertainment for the Somerville Social Club this evening July 3rd. They will produce their comedy “All a mistake”. *** THERE is talk of starting an automobile club in Somerville, the cars in the immediate district numbering nearly a dozen. Mr Duncan Puckle has just purchased a fine French “Bayard” car, Mr G. Coop a “Maxwell” and Mr Geo Griffith a “Hupmobile”. There will probably be one or two lady drivers in the club if it is started. *** AN innovation in the Church of England service recently was a gentleman organist, Mr E. A. Dunn, a musician and organist lately resident of Ballarat, but now of Somerville kindly presided. *** MR S. S. Gault has yet another iron in the fire, having decided to stock hardware and up to date implements of all kinds. *** GREAT regret was expressed this week on the news being made public that Mr Stan Clark had been wounded at the Dardanells. He is reported to be in the hospital in Manchester, England. We wish our young hero a

speedy recovery. *** DEATH of Mr B. Baxter. The death of Mr Benjamin Baxter, aged 75 years, on the 30th ultimo, at Frankston, brings hack recollections of the long past. His father, the late Captain Baxter, was, born in Ireland in 1805, arriving in Melbourne in 1837. Some of his education was acquired on the Continent, he had up to the time of his death a vivid recollection of the Battle of Waterloo, and distinctly remembered hearing the guns when he was at school in Belgium. The late Captain Baxter was one of the founders of the Melbourne Club, took part in the first cricket match played in the Colony, at the foot of Batman’s Hill (now Spencer Street Railway Station) on November 12th, 1838, also one of the Directors of the first Pastoral and Agricultural Society, founded in Melbourne in 1840, he was also connected with the first theatrical performance played in Melbourne in 1842. His first stock yard was erected at Emerald Hill (now South Melbourne.) It is also a matter of further interest that the late Benjamin Baxter’s mother was the first Postmistress in Melbourne, and shipped the first mails to London without consulting the authorities in Sydney. Mr Baxter was born in Batman House, Batman’s Hill, in 1840. Subsequently the family removed to the Frankston district, well known as Baxter’s Flat. He was connected with local

shire council for many years, retiring a few years ago on account of failing health. He was an ardent cricketer and yielded the willow and trundled the ball for Frankston club up to a few years ago, when he still bowled a tricky and tempting ball, and had a stubborn defence with the bat. Indeed for over forty years he was one of the mainstays of the club, always turning up punctually and in this respect putting younger members to the blush. The lack of interest taken in the game in Frankston of later years was a cause of great regret to him. *** FATAL Railway Accident. A shocking accident occurred at the railway station, Frankston, on Thursday evening last, when an employee of the Department, named H. Maudsley was run over and killed instantly while proceeding home from his work. An inquiry into the circumstances will be held today, and full particulars will be given next issue. *** A UNITED effort must be made to forward more soldiers from Australia, and a fortnight’s work in arranging details will culminate in a ‘Recruitment Week’, from Monday, 5th July to Monday, 12th July, and for this purpose a public meeting was held in the Mechanics’ Hall, on Monday evening last. There was a good attendance. Cr Oates (President of the shire) took the chair, and read the request from State Parliament that more men were want-

ed to fill the places of the fallen — the places of men who had accomplished such wonderful achievements. We are proud to know they have accomplished such deeds with honor to our Empire. They have fought well and died, and it is our duty to see that their places are filled. Everybody must be willing to do their share and take their part in this great campaign. Dr Plowman was elected to carry out the secretarial duties and said he was happy to accept the position. He was too old to go to the front himself, but he could drive a quill, and would do his best to carry out his duties. Apologies were read from Dr Maxwell, Captain Sherlock, and Mr Young. Dr Plowman read a letter from Captain Hartland, who, so far has escaped and managed to get word through to his parents. A younger brother of Captain Hartland has been wounded, but not severely, we are pleased to say. After a short discussion, July 7th was fixed for the public meeting, on the motion of Mr Pimm, seconded by Mr Hartland. Mr Pimm moved Sir John Madden be asked to speak at the meeting, also Mr Elmslie and Sir William Irvine— Seconded by Cr Oates and carried. The programme arrangements to be left in hands of secretary. Mr Willox answered on behalf of the local band that he thought they would be willing to assist on the night of the 7th July. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 3 July, 1915

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Stale mate: My life of treachery By Stuart McCullough THE word slipped effortlessly past his lips. As he scanned items and deposited them into my bedraggled recyclable shopping bag, this feckless youth asked whether I had an, ‘everyday rewards card’. This, of course, was not idle conversation but part of a mandated interrogation that has transformed grocery shopping into a form of retail cross-examination. But then he added one more word that took his enquiry decidedly off-script. Without so much as batting an eyelid, he asked: Do you have an everyday rewards card, mate? He said it so quickly that I couldn’t believe it at first. Not because of the inappropriateness of the term ‘everyday rewards card’ when I do my shopping on Sundays, Tuesdays and Thursdays which would make it, at best, an ‘every other day rewards card’, but for the term that he’d slapped on to the end of his sentence without so much as a first thought, never mind a second. Suddenly, a scripted inquiry as to whether I had a particular piece of plastic in my wallet was elevated in terms of its status. By using the term ‘mate’, notions of friendship and loyalty and allegiance were now in play. I had previously assumed that I could take or leave such things

as I pleased, never suspecting that whether or not I had an everyday rewards card might become a question of character. But here I was, spotlight fixed and found wanting. Let me be honest: I have never really been the type of person who felt comfortable using the term ‘mate’. Whether with friend or stranger, it’s simply never really been a part of my vocabulary. I appreciate that by admitting this some may regard my aversion as a form of treason and propose that I be deported, even though I was

born here. (If I must leave the country, could you send me to Antarctica? I fancy my chances of ingratiating myself with the local penguin population and, one day, becoming their leader.) I’ve no idea what being ‘mate’ averse says about me. It’s not that I’m opposed to terms that denote either affection or a substitute for learning someone else’s name. It’s just that ‘mate’ is not my preferred mode of engagement. On the few occasions that I have given it a whirl, it’s always felt and sounded kind of disingenuous.

Unconvincing. The cold hard truth of the matter is that I am more likely to refer to another person as ‘dude’ than I am ‘mate’. It then dawned on me that this might not be merely a matter of preference. Instead, it may be proof positive that I’m not worthy of the term. It was then that I saw his name badge. Hovering below a lank, greasy fringe and a face replete with teenage blemishes was a small plastic tag that simply said: Jasper. When I was a kid, Jasper was a name you gave a cat rather than a

child. None of my classmates at Tyabb Primary School were called ‘Jasper’. In the years that I was there, we didn’t have any ‘Tarquins’, ‘Hunters’ or ‘Optimus Primes’ either. But it seemed quite telling that someone saddled with the kind of nomenclature that would once have been a source for ridicule felt sufficiently comfortable to deploy the language of camaraderie even when filling an afternoon shift at the local supermarket. It has to be said that the word ‘mate’ is nothing if not flexible. It can be used as a term of affection or friendship. In other circumstances, it is used as a threat; to signify that the recipient is crossing some unseen boundary and, should he not desist, there will be consequences of an unspecified magnitude visited upon him. Or it can be transactional. Perhaps Jasper’s use of the term ‘mate’ was little more than a substitute for punctuation. Maybe he calls everyone he meets ‘mate’ because, unlike him, not everyone wears a plastic name badge pinned to his shirt. Then it occurred to me: I am not special. My deploying the term ‘mate’, Jasper is not extending the hand of friendship. Stuck behind the checkout, this impressionable youth has not glanced up and been awestruck at the mere sight of me. I am

not someone he looks up to, admires or one day hopes to emulate. Nor do he and I share a bond underpinned by a shared belief in the ‘everyday rewards card’ system and the bounty that it delivers. Not at all. Instead, he is calling me ‘mate’ probably because he calls everyone, including his own mother, ‘mate’. His is a world where everyone, even the idlest passerby, is a mate. Where all and sundry form part of a broad network of support. Do you wanna receipt, mate? And with those words, my stupor came to an abrupt end. This time, the word ‘mate’ had a slight sharpness to it. As though it was being used more as a matter of sarcasm than friendship. Casting a glance to my left, I could see a line of impatient shoppers, who were likely to call me lots of things; ‘mate’ not being one of them, clearly wanting me to get a wriggle on. Embarrassed, I gave a brief shake of the head. No, I said as I lifted my shopping bags. No thanks…. dude. There was no reaction. If, at that moment, Jasper had been walking and not stuck behind a checkout counter, he would doubtless have taken it in his stride. For me, though, the only thing I took in my stride was my shopping as I hurriedly exited the supermarket. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

A Grain of Salt THE Border Force Act: Teachers, doctors, security staff subject to two years’ jail if they speak publicly about what they witnessed on Nauru? Democratic accountability and the rule of law, our rights in the name of anti-terrorism. Immigration laws, natural justice, citizenship? Tony’s crowd are bombarding us, but adherence on metadata laws and asylum seeker policies are the same with Billy’s lot. The spying on Sarah HansonYoung and the mysterious Trans Pacific Partnership Agreement, too important to Australia to let us in on the fine print? “The more they get the more they want” seemingly a locked in principle of authoritarian human nature. The Russian saying “Before you die you cannot get enough of breathing”. True, at my age there’s relief in the peace of downtown Rye, devoid of political activism. The second principle of human nature “I’m all right, Jack” as my security blanket, but disturbing nevertheless. Smile, we’re all on candid camera. *** My fascination with the ABC’s The Killing Season lies in the various answers and the amazing display of self-indulgence and self-righteousness of many interviewees. The documented shots of what was said was real enough, but the difficulty lies in the interpretation; each seemingly with justifiable reasons for their actions, but whichever way you saw it you knew some of them (certainly not all) were lying. Cicero considered those who were lovers of themselves without rivals were doomed in the end to failure? Kevvy Rudd lynched, with doubtful arguable evidence he had lost

the plot. On the other hand he’s a Queenslander? The “leaks” is a wonderful tool. A friend on Fairfax or News Limited and away you go; both sides. Kevvy’s real undoing (again arguably) not taking his right and left wing union bosses into his decision making circle. Top marks to the ABC’s Sarah Ferguson. *** Billy is in hot water running the real risk of being found guilty (by the public) without evidence before his July 8th appearance with Tony’s man, Commissioner Dyson Heydon’s Royal Commission into Union Corruption, which some call a witch hunt. The reported $300,000 agreement may well be a good one, but as it stands it’s doubtful if the voters will take any facts on board. In addition Billy’s accusation that Abbott paid $30,000 to smugglers is offset by Tony’s suggestion of Labor paying for disruption activities and information. As if that’s not enough, Billy opposed the government’s tougher assets test on pensions and the Greens again did the dirty on Labor by coming to Scott Morrison’s aid. It’s time Billy made his move, if he has one. Peyton Place continues... *** An aspiring would be actor attending arts classes asked about breaking into the business. I emailed this reply: “One of the most overlooked and yet most important parts of anyone’s career is “who you know”. Thus, list management here and potentially anywhere; sometimes known as bullying, nepotism, manipulation and/or plain exclusion, pertaining to Australian culture, society. Aussies generally can be selfconscious, ironic, laconic, outgoing,

resentful, multicultural, consumed by doubt, fear, selfishness, searching for self-awareness, recognition, self-love, self-importance, money, sex and occasionally truth, where assertiveness and stubbornness are sure signs of animal stupidity. But without knowing the right people you’re in no-mans land, at work or play; You’re not on the A or B list, forget it. Best surrender; survive on self-deprecation. Another doozy who has cunningly kept his/her head down, discreet and subtle, has arisen. Perhaps from England with a suspiciously long creative unproven CV, a cousin of the boss, a pretty face who appears to be really interested in your work, your good looks, your tie; suddenly appearing from the dark side, promoted? Back to square one, all those tickets on yourself removed. Generally ambitious, confident, past master manipulators who do not know you’re alive. You’ve got egg on your tie, curried. Accept the rules, toe the line, aim for the B into A and stay clear of financial advisers, counsellors and gossip.” A nice kid. Good luck to him. *** Well done to Wayne Carey and Greg Baum in highlighting the political correctness nonsense on the blanket “no drinking” the night before an AFL footy game. Discipline is a fine thing but not only is it impossible to find two opinions exactly the same, but often the same man (or woman) will change that opinion at a different time. A glass of wine can be good medicine for some. Fremantle’s Ryan Crowley copped a year for taking a methadone pill.

By Cliff Ellen Cameron Mooney and Barry Hall commented: “Crowley was nasty on field but off the field a really nice bloke”. Another insightful gem on a par with Dermot Brereton’s insights. Some of those football shows rightly belong on the Comedy Channel. Years ago I had a day long chat with Russell Street bomber Stan Taylor on the set of a television show. He seemed like a really nice bloke at the time. *** It must be difficult voting Labor living in Camberwell. Who would you talk to?...ABC’s Q&A: Beware of Malcolm Turnbull, Tony Jones... To Education Minister Christopher Pyne “Insanity is when you do the same thing over and over

again and expect different results.” [A Einstein]...If I was retired with $823,000 in the tin tank and owned my house I wouldn’t give a monkey’s uncle about any pension changes...I know I’m old when people remark how clever I am on seeing me pressing buttons on my iphone 4...Exciting times for salivating Andrew Bolt...Has Tony Abbott got dual citizenship?...To all you letter writers out there, kindly never use “thinking Australians” as a reason for your opinions. Of the top rated shows on any particular weekday A Current Affair and Home and Away are in the top ten?...I renewed my passport; stupid.

Buds are right in the premiership race NEPEAN LEAGUE By Toe Punt ROSEBUD proved once and for all on Saturday that it is right in the mix for the 2015 Nepean League premiership. In the match of the round, the Buds opened up an early break and despite Hastings getting within ten points late in the clash, the home side was able to put on the afterburners and boot five goals to two in the last to win 17.15 (117) to 11.11 (77). The Buds have now won six matches on the trot, their only losses coming at the hands of Rye in the opening game of the season and against Red Hill three weeks later. Rosebud were able to turn the tables on Red Hill a few weeks ago to the tune of 100 points. It was Hastings’ second loss of the season, its first coming against Somerville. The Buds have now beaten Hastings, Red Hill and Somerville in their opening ten games. They are yet to play Sorrento and they don’t play Rye for a second time. Before the match, the call was made that if Hastings could stop the in–form Tom Baker, they would probably win the match. Well, Baker was held goalless, however, the Blues still managed to kick 17 majors. Greg Bentley played as a forward in the first half and booted four goals before going off with a hyper–extended knee. He didn’t come back on the field in the second half. Lachy Armstrong and Keegan Downie also contributed three goals each while Chris Zurek did a wonderful job on Luke Clark, restricting the goal kicking ladder leader to just three goals. The stand out best player on the ground was Jason Bristow. He booted three goals and racked up the possessions playing in the middle of the ground. Ryan Spooner was dominant on a wing and Nick Boswell brought his absolute A-game to the table. After finding his way for a while, Boswell is now in tip top shape and dominating. There is no question that Boswell is one of the most damaging players in the competition. Rosebud had seven Under 19 players running around on Saturday. An

absolute credit to the club and to the senior coach Nick Jewell for showing the faith and confidence in them to perform at the highest level against the best teams in the competition. What appeared to be an Achilles heel (inexperience), has proven to be an absolute will to do what is best for the team. Nick Jewell agreed. “What the kids give us is absolute effort. The more experienced and older players go out on the field knowing that the kids will do anything to help us win,” said Jewell. “I sent a text message to the senior players on Friday night and told them

that the kids will give us their all and it was their responsibility to bring their best effort and steer the ship for us. “That’s exactly what they did – they were just super.” Once again, Rosebud had 30-plus shots at goal. Jewell went on record four weeks ago saying that his side liked to play scrappy footy. “Yeah, I guess you could say that we have changed the way we play,” said Jewell. “That hasn’t been conscious though. Our basic ingredient is defend first, which we have and always will do.

“Where things have changed is that we are defending extremely well, turning over the ball in dangerous parts of the ground, regaining possession and attacking hard. “Our team defence has improved dramatically as the season has gone on too and I think the make-up of our team is a lot more unpredictable than we have been in the past, which helps us. “Players like Dale Stephens is playing unbelievable footy after being in the footy wilderness for a while.” Rosebud went into the game without seven of their best 22. Paul McDonald, Matt Baker, Seb Kremich,

Chris Dew, Rohan Forrest and Paul Kennedy all didn’t play yesterday, while Bentley was off for the second half. “Hastings had some good players out too with the likes of Brendan Dunne, Steve Charalambous and a couple of others while Colin McVeigh missed because his wife went into labour on Friday night. “It does prove though that our depth is fantastic and when everyone is available, there’s going to be some very good players in the reserves or Under 19s,” said Jewell. Somerville blew Crib Point away with an explosive six goals to zip in the opening quarter. By half time they had restricted the opposition to one goal and led by 52 points at the change. First quarters were once a problem for the Eagles but now it seems they have got their starts right. Rohan Hogenbirk, Luke Rowe and Scott Simpson all booted three goals each for the Eagles in their 18.13 (121) to 6.8 (48) victory, while Timmy McGenniss was once again the best player on the ground with two goals and more than 30 touches. Luke Herrington was the best of the Magpies with three goals. Frankston Bombers returned to the winners list, coming from behind to beat Pearcedale 11.15 (81) to 10.11 (71). The Bombers trailed by four points at quarter time, 12 points at half time and one point at three quarter time, before booting 4.7 to 3.2 in the last quarter. Matt Harris and Jason Kingsbury were outstanding for the Bombers while James Orr in the ruck was superb also. Basil Sibosado booted three majors for the Dales while Harrison Prior was sensational on debut. Devon Meadows booted 18.24 (132) to Tyabb’s 4.1 (25), inflicting yet another 100 point loss. Glenn Michie booted five goals and Dylan Hand returned with four majors while Troy Aust (four goals) and Heath Black (three goals) also contributed on the scoreboard. Beau Miller and Jesse Dehey were at their best. Michael Frost booted two goals for Tyabb while Tyson Sparkes and Adrian Clay collected the top votes.

Notice of no confidence brings MPNFL crisis to a head By Toe Punt MORNINGTON Peninsula Nepean Football League is about to face its biggest change in the history of the competition. Last Friday night (June 26), Peninsula League clubs supported the Nepean League clubs and issued the MPNFL Board with a ‘Notice of No Confidence’. There were eight of the 10 Peninsula League clubs who supported the vote of no confidence with both Mt Eliza and Frankston YCW not supporting the motion. Between the competitions, 19 of the 22 clubs (Somerville abstained from the vote) have demanded change. They only needed support of 75 per cent of clubs. A Special General Meeting will be called in the coming days to formalise

the matter, which will likely see the MPNFL Board resign their posts and AFL South East take control in a caretaker capacity. The MPNFL administration, including the CEO Jeff Jones and long standing operations manager Ian Benson, will remain in place until at least the end of the season. With salaries and honorariums exceeding $300,000 each year, it is highly unlikely that the administration structure will remain the same in 2016 and beyond. The typical structure of a regional administration includes an operations manager and netball coordinator. That’s it. In an email to the league, Karingal president Daniel Watts wrote on behalf of all Peninsula League clubs: “The Peninsula FNL presidents met

earlier this week to discuss what was going to be regarding the sustainability of our clubs and issues that surrounded that but instead we spoke purely of this motion only. “After much deliberation eight Peninsula FNL clubs have decided to join the motion put forward by the Nepean FNL clubs - A Notice of No Confidence in MPNFL board and administration. “We have alerted Jeremy Bourke (AFL South East) to this decision and now ask that a Special General Meeting for the MPNFL be convened so this motion can be enacted. “Thank you again to all the Peninsula FNL clubs who have scrambled over the past week in the middle of an already busy time for clubs to discuss and finalise this matter which was very difficult but professionally dealt with.”

The MPNFL board and administration have no-one but themselves to blame for their downfall. It is understood AFL South East encouraged the MPNFL board to sit down with them more than 18 months ago and discuss the opportunities of them making up a regional board. It was an offer the board rejected. The MPNFL administration, once preventing AFL South East to have any communication or influence on their member clubs and deliberately withholding important information to them, are now keen to work with AFL South East, scrambling for selfpreservation. What the administration are perhaps failing to recognise is that 19 of the 22 club are just as keen to see change at the administration level as they are with the board.

Scare tactics have been used in recent days with various rumours being circulated about where clubs will play next season, promotionrelegation, etc. Jeremy Bourke, while reluctant to engage in conversation about the process, said “absolutely no discussion or talk has been had about any structural changes or individual clubs from an AFL South East perspective”. “Any of those discussions will be held with all clubs with them having a major say in what happens in the future,” said Bourke. “We’ll be working alongside them, not dictating to them and pushing our own agendas.” That’s a refreshing outlook and future to look forward to!

Redlegs fail defensive test PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt MT ELIZA has an enormous amount of work to do if it is going to win that elusive Peninsula League premiership in 2015 after a poor showing against Frankston YCW on Saturday. It was billed as the match of the season. Fact is, it was an absolute fizzer. The ball spent more than 70 per cent of the game in the Stonecats’ front half of the ground and 37 scoring shots to 20 was a reasonable tale of the afternoon. The home side had 60 inside 50m entries to the opposition’s 31, while boasting 33 clearances to 17. The Redlegs engine room of Dave Barton, Ben Landry and Rohan Heasley netted just 42 possessions between them. Of those 42 possessions, more than half would have been ineffective hack kicks. Darren Booth and Sam Gill, usually prolific ball winners across half back, were under enormous pressure all afternoon and were restricted in their ability to dictate the way the game is played. Mt Eliza was unbelievably predictable from the first bounce to the final siren. They didn’t change their style, giving the impression that there was no ‘Plan B’. The Redlegs didn’t change the angles, didn’t switch play, didn’t go short, didn’t play on and didn’t have a third man up against the best ruckman in the competition in Ash Eames – there was nothing. The only thing that the Mounties did seem to try was to take their two ruckman in Matt Lillie and Jordan Capkin off the ground and throw an undersized James Anwyl into the ruck. I’m not sure what that achieved because the Stonecats booted five goals to one during the period and clearance work was made so much easier. All credit to Frankston YCW though. The Stonecats forced Mt Eliza to second guess themselves and play the way they did. They simply prevented the Redlegs from playing their own game. Frankston YCW protected the corridor, shut down those who needed to be shut down and prevented the opposition’s run from half back. Numbers got back to support the defence and strangle the dangerous Justin Van Unen. Van Unen was named in the best with four goals but two of them were from dubious free kicks in

the goal square and he would not have had more than six touches. Daniel Waddell completely shut him down. Kyle Hutchison was the best four quarter performer on the ground, while Tony Lester and Lachy Wallace completely dominated the first half. Ryan Santon wasn’t named in the team’s best but was clearly one of the best players on the ground. Mt Eliza had three players worth mentioning – Rob D’Orazio, Jimmy Clayton and James Freeman. D’Orazio did a wonderful job on both Dave Bodley and Anthony Bruhn and was the only effective defender. Clayton played in various positions in defence, attack and through the middle and worked tirelessly. James Freeman was back from the Stingrays and had countless possessions. Freeman was the only player

who tried to take on the opposition and create something. He was rewarded with two last quarter goals. It was vintage Frankston YCW on Saturday. Other than Ricky Morris, they had their best 22 on the park with the inclusion on Saturday of Luke Collins, Lachy Wallace, Jesse Coghlan and Anthony Barry. Pines for the second time this season proved that the difference between the top four sides and those vying for fifth place is poles apart. The Pythons took on Langwarrin at home on Saturday and other than a tight first quarter, completely smashed the opposition. The red and green had 25 scoring shots to 17 and booted 15.10 (100) to 6.11 (47). Guy Hendry loves giving it to Langwarrin and he did again with five gaols while Harley Parker was dangerous

too with four majors. Luke Holdcroft has become one of the best stoppers in the competition and he was at it again on Saturday while Aaron Edwards was first class. Langwarrin had a handful out with the likes of Scott Sienkiewics, Jayden Grose, Ethan Rahilly, Matt Dimkos, Gerard Brown and Andrew Withers not playing. Rikki Johnston earned himself yet another three club votes and would be miles ahead in the club B&F while Sean Herdman and Michael Parker were also hard workers. Bonbeach went from beating Mornington to getting beaten by Seaford on Saturday. The Tigers have been ordinary at best this season but led all afternoon to win their second game of the season, 14.13 (97) to 10.8 (68). It was a convincing victory. Aaron

Walton led from the front with six goals in a best on ground performance while Dean Williamson and Josh Stokes, arguably the Tigers’ best players, were at the top of their game. Some household MPNFL surnames in Jackson Sole and Gary Carpenter were the best of the Sharks. Mornington bounced back from its shock loss to Bonbeach last week to beat Karingal 20.18 (138) to 7.7 (49). The margin was seven points at quarter time and 27 point at half time. Jackson Calder was back and booted four goals, along with Jake Smart. Josh Halsall and Chris Baker were the best of the Doggies. Aaron’s Paxton and Lees were the best of the Bulls, along with Brodie Kempster and Bevan Malloy, who made a return to help out his old club. Edithvale and Chelsea went toe to toe in the traditional Sunday game.

be available as an option across the range. The sedan joins All-New Mazda2 hatch which has sold 6,128 cars since arriving last November. With more than 4,000 sales in the first quarter of 2015, it is the nation’s most popular light car. Mazda Australia’s managing director, Martin Benders said: “When we first saw the design for the Mazda2 sedan we decided it was a musthave car. Often B-segment sedans can lack style and design flow, but we believe the Mazda2 sedan is the best looking of its type in its segment. Having a stylish sedan on sale alongside a sporty hatch provides even more choice to light car buyers.” For more information or to register or your interest in All-New Mazda2 sedan contact Graeme Powell Mazda on 9786 2011 or drop in and visit them at 51 Wells Road, Seaford.

Toorak Twins Elly & Sarah Sarah and Elly Jackson are a high achieving local duo, who took out first and second place for Overall Junior Female, as well as second and third for Overall Female in the Arthurs Seat Challenge last year. Similarly talented in the academic arena, the girls graduated from Toorak College in 2014 with identical ATAR scores (they are identical twins after all!) to receive the prestigious award of Dux Proximus. Now 18 years old, the girls have started University courses, Elly is studying in Biomedicine with the intention of becoming an Obstetrician and Sarah is completing a Bachelor of Science, hoping to specialise in Veterinary Medicine. The girls are eleven minutes apart in age, with Elly being the eldest, but their times for the Arthurs Seat Challenge were much closer with less than a minute separating the pair. Once again, however, Elly crossed the line first! They say this isn’t always the case, rather, when it comes to Athletics, Sarah has the edge and always takes out the sprints. With Cross Country, the rivalry is fiercer, however, the girls see it more as healthy competition and motivation. Sarah said, “We really help each other out. I don’t imagine that either of us would have reached the level that we have, if we didn’t have each other. We train together, race together, and most importantly motivate each to run.” When asked about their stance on road safety for young people, both girls were adamant that relevant education is a must. “I really can’t begin to express how much I support this. I know all too well how important road safety is for young drivers, so the kind of education Fit2Drive provides is invaluable. Anything that helps to become safer on the roads is beneficial not only for us, but for all other road users too” said Elly. Sarah was also quick to remind us about distractions behind the wheel, “I feel a lot of young people take their safety for granted whilst driving, and don’t realise how unsafe it actually is at this age. I see way too many people, including my own peers, checking their phones whilst driving and I cringe every time. That is something that I really think needs to be stopped.” Asked if they would return in 2015, both girls emphatically confirmed, Sarah stating “Of course! Elly is looking like the favourite, but I still dream of beating her in a cross country race so I will be trying hard!” Elly played down her strength with hill runs, saying “I will be back this year no doubt! It will be good to have another crack at that hill, it’s definitely a challenge that’s for sure! As for who will win this time, I have no idea, I guess we’ll just have to wait and see!”
