Ironman canned Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au

NEXT year’s Ironman Asia Pacific Championship race has been cancelled and Frankston Council fears the region’s economy will take a multi-million dollar hit as a result.

Race organisers blamed a scheduling conflict with the Melbourne Grand Prix on the same weekend of 17-20 March as the reason to pull the pin on the swim, cycle and run triathlon but authorities say both events could have been accommodated.

The annual race, held in the south east of Melbourne, begins in Frankston and ends at St Kilda with the bike stage taking place along Eastlink after the swim stage at Frankston.

In a statement last Thursday (29 October) World Triathlon Corporation Asia Pacific CEO Geoff Meyer said the cancellation was due to “challenges that have arisen due to a scheduling conflict with another major event in the Melbourne calendar”.

The Australian Formula One Grand Prix was originally scheduled to be held in Melbourne on 31 March-3 April but was moved to 17-20 March.

“Holding both events on the same day was explored; however, the impact on the city, surrounding communities, roads and emergency services was not manageable for an event to be delivered in Melbourne to the level required for our athletes’ safety and satisfaction,” Mr Meyer said.

Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer said the Ironman race cancellation is “a devastating blow” to Frankston.

“This annual international event brings wide-reaching benefits to local businesses, on both the day of the event

and ahead of the race. It attracts 15,000 spectators and 2,500 competitors to Frankston City, who contribute an additional $2.2 million to the economy.”

Cr Mayer said council had notified the Ironman race organisers that the entire event could be hosted in the Bayside region to avoid traffic clashes with Grand Prix attendees.

“This would turn a potential issue into an opportunity that would benefit the south east Melbourne region.”

Frankston Labor MP Paul Edbrooke said he is “bitterly disappointed” World Triathlon Corporation decided not to proceed with next year’s event. He understood competitor registration numbers were lower than expected for 2016 compared to previous years.

“The organisers were presented with a range of options, including changing the route so the event finished in Frankston, but they’ve nonetheless decided to cancel the event for commercial reasons,” he said.

A spokesman for Sports Minister John Eren said there was no logistical reason to cancel next year’s Ironman event.

“This is a commercial decision made by the World Triathlon Corporation and is not due to a clash with another event,” spokesman Patrick Lane said.

“Victoria is more than capable of hosting the big events side by side at the same time - our track record proves it.”

The triathlon was first held in 2011 and next year was the final race before the partially taxpayer funded event’s contract was due for renegotation.

World Triathlon Corporation says all athletes registered for the 2016 Ironman Asia-Pacific Championship Melbourne will be offered race transfer and race refund options.

‘Fake debate’ not as advertised Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au UNIONS have been accused of misleading the public over claims Coalition MPs would attend Australian Council of Trade Unions hosted public debates about the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement.

The union advertised debates last week between the ACTU and Liberal or National MPs in 23 federal electorates across Australia, including Dunkley, without confirmation from MPs they would attend.

After the debates the union made automated phone calls to voters the next day expressing “disappointment” MPs who had never agreed to appear at the debate “decided not to turn up”.

Dunkley Liberal MP Bruce Billson said he was surprised to see the ACTU promoting his attendance at a debate in Frankston last Wednesday (28 October).

In a letter to ACTU secretary Davie Oliver, who authorised the advertising, Mr Billson noted “the union movement has targeted Coalition MPs despite Labor’s support for the China FTA”.

“It is very surprising the ACTU has promoted my attendance at your campaign event through a range of channels including advertising and a letterbox drop despite no indication of my attendance,” Mr Billson said in the letter.

“Our community has been deceived about the event’s nature and arrangements.”

The ACTU is campaigning against the China-Australia Free Trade Agreement, dubbed ChAFTA, arguing for-

eign workers could be hired for some major projects.

“The facts are this deal creates exemptions to labour market testing which means jobs on major projects no longer need to be offered to local workers first,” Mr Oliver said in a media release issued on 21 October.

“This means major projects like the Frankston train line upgrade could be built by overseas workers if these projects are owned or sold to companies with at least 15 per cent Chinese investment.”

Labor agreed to back ChAFTA after amendments were made to migration regulations forcing employers to first seek to hire Australian workers before employing overseas workers on work visas.

ACTU president Ged Kearney had no misgivings about the way the union promoted the debates.

“We make no apology for providing an opportunity for government MPs to discuss the China Free Trade Agreement in front of their electorates,” she said.

“The community campaign opposing the China free trade deal has already meant the government has reversed its position on local labour market testing and tying overseas workers’ rates of pay to enterprise agreements.

“At every single debate on the China Free Trade Agreement, Liberal and National Party MPs have refused to participate. It is not possible that all these MPs were unavailable, which makes it clear there has been a central decision by the Turnbull government to avoid the scrutiny of their electorate on the China deal.”

Union makes house calls The Times received an automated phone call from the ACTU the day after its staged debate on ChAFTA last week as part of an automated phone calls campaign to Dunkley voters: “Hello, my name is Ged Kearney and I’m the president of the Australian Council of Trade Unions. I’m really sorry about the recording but I need to tell you about an important issue and I promise it will take less than a minute of your time.

In Frankston last night we hosted a debate on the China Free Trade Agreement and heard just how that agreement will lock local workers out of jobs. I want to say how terribly disappointed I am that your local member of parliament, Bruce Billson of the Liberal Party, decided not to turn up.

This issue is just too important to our kids and their future job prospects for politicians to simply not show up. You deserve better.

Please call or write to your local member, Bruce Billson of the Liberal Party, to tell him how you feel about this important issue.

Thank you for your time.”

Bruce Billson’s response: “It was clear that the union’s political event was a fit-up, staged, fake gathering and the latest stunt in the deceitful campaign by the union movement to smear me, the government and the landmark ChAFTA. Despite Labor voting to support the China Free Trade Agreement, you don’t see the unions targeting their Labor parliamentary bedfellows and the Labor Party the union movement owns.

I wouldn’t go to a Labor campaign event so why would I go to a union organised campaign event when it is designed to help my Labor political opponents who also voted for the China FTA just like me.

Yet the deceit from the union movement continued with organisers falsely advertising that I’d be attending when I had made no such undertaking.

I have been and continue to be happy to provide factual information and to answer questions or comments the community have in relation to ChAFTA. I was pleased to hold a public forum on the FTA in Frankston and was pleased by the level of interest and participation.”

Beware: con men on the move THE state government is warning Victorians about a coming spike in the number of dodgy door-to-door tradespeople trying to rip off people.

Consumer affairs minister Jane Garrett said summer was the peak time for con men offering cheap "today only" cash deals on jobs such as painting, roof and driveway repairs.

In 2014-15, Consumer Affairs Victoria received 486 reports of travelling con men, with reported losses totalling $1.35 million. Reports spike between January and March.

Ms Garrett said con men often ask for cash payments up front, then take the money and run. They leave behind unfinished or poor quality work.

Victorians are encouraged to report con men to a national hot line – 1300 133 408 – or call police.

Detective Senior Sergeant Steve Fyffe of Frankston police said a gang of Irish gypsies several years ago had conned several "vulnerable" elderly homeowners out of tens of thousands of dollars by promising to repair their roofs.

The gang extracted deposit money and cash for supplies, returned next day and appeared to do work on the roof but caused more damage, he said. Some con men used fake business cards from a legitimate company.

The men were caught, had their visas revoked and were deported to Ireland.

Sergeant Fyffe urged residents to be careful of itinerant tradies. Never pay money up front. If the price sounds too good to be true it usually is.

"If you need a tradie, look online or in the Yellow Pages," he said.

Unanswered questions on Evocca graduation rates Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au EVOCCA College is refusing to reveal graduation rates at its Frankston campus in the wake of a damning Senate inquiry into the funding and management of vocational education and training (VET) providers.

The Queensland based college, which has more than 40 campuses nationwide, was one of several registered training organisations offering short diploma courses criticised in the report over its marketing to students (‘College’s marketing to students slammed’, The Times 26/10/15).

The Senate committee heard allegations vulnerable students with little or no chance of completing courses are

enrolled by some private sector operators to boost enrolment numbers and rake in hundreds of millions of dollars in profits at the expense of taxpayers.

The federal government banned private colleges earlier this year from offering so-called “free” iPads and laptops to persuade students to sign on the dotted line.

Students are signed up for “study now, pay later” deals with federal VET FEE-HELP funding, paid for by taxpayers, not having to be repaid until students earn at least $50,000 per year.

The Senate committee tasked with investigating the private colleges industry recommended the repayment threshold be lowered to $30,000 or $40,000.

When asked about graduation rates at its Frankston campus Evocca College communications executive Suzanne Ross said in a statement that the college “is focused on delivering quality vocational education and training that is geared towards students generating strong outcomes”.

“This year 79.4 per cent of graduates from Evocca College Frankston have either continued with further study or are in employment.”

When asked how many students had graduated at its Frankston campus, Ms Ross subsequently replied: “It’s Evocca’s policy not to disclose statistics relating to specific campuses.”

Data released by the Department of Education and Training reveals Evocca had 27,907 students enrolled

nationally last year but just 1053 students completed courses, a completion rate of less than 4 per cent.

Evocca received more than $250 million in VET FEE-HELP funding in 2014 according to the Department’s figures.

“Evocca College has completion rates which are well in excess of the industry average for both public and private VET FEE-HELP providers,” Ms Ross said.

Department of Education and Training statistics show Evocca College’s benchmarked progress rate of units completed by students against units undertaken was 27.6 per cent against a national average of 64.4 per cent for VET FEE-HELP providers nationally.

Ward grants out, new standards in Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au COUNCILLORS will no longer be able to individually dish out ratepayers’ money to community groups and sports clubs after the state government finally axed council ward grants last week.

The long-flagged move to end Victorian councillors’ access to individual pools of money to dish out as they see fit came after a Local Government Inspectorate investigation in 2013 found just four councils out of 32 probed had sufficient measures in place to stop potential misuse of ward grants.

The discretionary funds were a way for councillors to pass on money to community groups without the need to wait months for approval as funding requests made their way through councils’ bureaucratic processes.

Frankston councillors listed ward grant recipients at council’s monthly public council meetings. Examples of ward grant funding included the purchase of sports club uniforms, arts projects and funding for community garden projects.

Despite ward grants being generally distributed with the best of intentions, the LGI investigation found inadequate oversight by councils meant “fraudulent or corrupt practices by individual councillors, whereby funds may be committed to self-interest groups” could occur.

The LGI report specifically noted governance concerns when Frankston councillors “publicly committed funds to sports groups, and advertised this in council publications, just prior to the

[council] election period” in 2012.

Frankston’s nine councillors could collectively distribute up to $135,000 in discretionary ward funds each financial year. Each councillor had a limit of $15,000 to pass on to community groups.

Neighbouring Kingston councillors were able to distribute $6000 each and Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors had an individual $10,000 limit on annual ward fund spending.

Mornington Peninsula Shire decided to end its discretionary ward funds program in July last year when it became apparent councillors would be banned from allocating such funds.

A $110,000 Community Placemaking Grants Program was set up by the Shire with applications for funding “assessed by a panel of at least three relevant council officers” instead of an individual councillor.

Frankston mayor Cr Sandra Mayer opposed the axing of ward grants and said Frankston Council “has operated an open and transparent process”.

“Removing councillor discretionary funds is yet another example of the Victorian government punishing the community, by interfering with council business,” she said.

“By removing discretionary funds, the state government is taking the populist approach of implying that councillors have been doing the wrong thing – when the truth is actually the opposite: through their allocation of discretionary funds councillors have been able to achieve a lot, by offering much-needed support to many community groups and initiatives.”

“Councillors have used their funds to make a huge difference to the com-

munity, supporting initiatives like the free dental clinic in Frankston North, the construction of the new war memorial, charity days, scholarships and supporting locals getting to the Special Olympics.

“In some cases councillors have filled a void, by providing funds to services which fall under the responsibility of other levels of government – which they failed to support.”

The previous Coalition state government began the move to force councils to end councillor ward grants and the Labor state government backed the plan.

The Labor state government also introduced new measures last week to “empower” the Local Government Minister to clamp down on misconduct by councillors.

Councillors face suspension for up to six months or could be permanently stood down for misconduct by the state government under new standards of behaviour for councillors approved in state parliament last week.

Local Government Minister Natalie Hutchins says the “reforms to strengthen council governance” will enable councils and the Minister to “take action against councillors doing the wrong thing”.

Independent councillor conduct panels, set up by a new office of Councillor Conduct Registrar, will investigate allegations of misconduct against councillors and will be able to suspend councillors found guilty of behaviour “inconsistent with the role of councillor”.

Each panel will consist of two members that the Registrar considers suitable and will include at least one lawyer

who will chair the panel.

The Local Government Minister will decide who is eligible to sit on a councillor conduct panel.

The Minister will be able to appoint municipal monitors to direct councils to take action against councillors found guilty of serious or gross misconduct.

In a statement released last week, Ms Hutchins said councils and communities had told her improved behaviour standards for councillors “are desperately needed”.

“By giving councils and the Vic-

torian government the ability to step in earlier, it will help ensure problems with councillor standards and governance aren’t left to grow,” she said.

“While overall misconduct among Victoria’s 79 councils is rare, it is vital that our governance frameworks are robust and ready to deal with misconduct.”

The new laws on councillor standards will be phased in over the next few months ahead of council elections next year “to ensure councils are ready for the changes”, according to Ms Hutchins.

Wetland protection for the birds PROTECTING wetlands in Western Port and Port Phillip which are integral to the survival of migratory birds, ranges from controlling pest plants and animals to increasing understanding about their importance.

Management of the three internationally recognised Ramsar wetlands - Edithvale-Seaford, Western Port and the western shoreline of Port Phillip Bay – is coordinated out by the Port Phillip and Westernport Catchment Management Authority (PPWCMA).

“In addition, the PPWCMA has started the Improving Wetlands Project supported by the state govern-

ment’s Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning involving partnerships with councils, government agencies, community Landcare groups and private landholders,” the authority’s Andrew Morrison said.

“Some birds, such as the eastern curlew, migrate annually over 10,000 kilometers from places such as Siberia to Australia, and rely on our wetlands to rest and feed as part of their amazing yearly ritual.

“However, some pests and modern land uses and activities, including weeds, foxes, feral cats and increasing urbanisation and recreation have put

the Ramsar wetlands under pressure.”

Mr Morrison said the five-year, $3 million Improving Wetlands Project “will contribute to improving the ecological health and condition of mangrove and saltmarsh vegetation communities across the sites”.

“It will also help to reduce the threats from feral animals to native wildlife, and community engagement activities will raise awareness of wetland values and increase community and public knowledge.

For more information on the PPWCMA’s work at the Ramsar wetland sites, visit www.ppwcma.vic.gov.au.

THE co-founder of Kunyung Residents Group, formed to lobby for South East Water's decommissioned Mt Eliza reservoir to be turned into a reserve, has started an online petition.

The blurb accompanying Rebecca Taylor's change.org petition is an impassioned letter to Premier Daniel Andrews, planning minister Richard Wynne, South East Water, and Mornington Peninsula Shire requesting the land become a wildlife reserve instead of a 24-lot housing estate.

It is headed "South East Water customers, would you give up a $6 savings on your bill to save a frog?"

The dam was decommissioned in 1999 and has become a haven for wildlife. It is on the corner of Barmah and Kanya roads near Kunyung Rd. Wildlife experts say the fenced 2.8-hectare block contains about 100 locally significant flora and fauna species including the only substantial frog population in Mt Eliza. It is home to native birds and mammals – including the endangered grey-headed flying fox – and holds the only established colony of now locally rare kangaroo grass as well as orchids.

In early 2014, South East Water asked the shire to rezone the 24 blocks of about 1000 square metres each via a planning scheme amendment, which must be approved by planning Minister Richard Wynne. SEW wants

to sell the blocks to developers for full price, estimated to be worth between $10–$13 million.

An independent planning panel heard from all parties in August, and recommended the land be used for houses with no reserve, disappointing residents, the shire and Mornington MP David Morris who in the Parliament had called on state environment minister Lisa Neville to "give the land to the people" for a reserve.

"Transport magnate Sir Reg Ansett bought the land in the late 1950s and gave it to State Rivers and Water Supply Commission for a reservoir instead of a site on his land nearby.

A submission to set aside two lots for public housing was rejected by the panel as was a request by the shire that one hectare be public open space.

The panel report has been sent to Mr Wynne, who has the final say.

In her letter, Ms Taylor says the water authority told her money from the land sale would be passed on to its customer. "At the current market value of the land, this would equate to a $6 one-off saving for each of its 1.65 million customers.

"Join with us to tell South East Water and the Victorian Andrews Government that we would prefer that they use our $6 saving for a more altruistic purpose of preserving the environment of the reservoir."

Build two new ports, lease inquiry told Mike Hast mike@baysidenews.com.au MELBOURNE needs two new ports – one at Hastings and one on the western side of Port Phillip – Captain Richard Cox told the Port of Melbourne Select Committee hearing in Hastings last week.

The committee is gathering information about the Labor government's proposed long-term lease of the Port of Melbourne to commercial interests, and came to the peninsula for the first time to hear submissions from individuals, councils including Mornington Peninsula Shire and Frankston, and conservation groups.

Captain Cox, a Tyabb resident and former Port of Hastings harbourmaster, told the committee that bulk trade required waterfront space for silos and tanks with wharf loading and unloading infrastructure different from that used for containers.

He said Hastings should be developed as a container port, and the western side of Port Phillip – dubbed Bay West – should be for bulk trade "combining Geelong and Melbourne port facilities".

After dumping plans for a container port at Hastings last year, the state government said Western Port should become a port for bulk trade. The area is already a bulk trade node with United Terminals (fuel) and Esso (gas and crude oil) operating north of the

Woman assaulted A LANGWARRIN woman in her mid40s was assaulted outside her home in North Rd, 10pm, 12 October.

Frankston police Senior Sergeant Steve Burt said the woman was at her letterbox when a group of men walking west approached her from behind.

The woman was pushed to ground, abused and then assaulted by one of the men before they ran towards Warrandyte Rd. The woman suffered cuts to her head, severe swelling to her face and possible nerve damage to her left hand as a result of the assault.

Constable Jonathan Edwards, of Frankston police, said: “This is a disturbing situation and the offender needs to be held accountable for this disgraceful attack on a female outside her home.”

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

town, and Swiss company Puma Energy seeking to build a tank farm for imported fuel in the precinct.

Captain Cox said Victoria needed the two new ports if trade was to remain strong "otherwise we will become a backwater and have the added expense of our goods being sent by road from NSW or Adelaide".

"Businesses will then move closer to these ports with dire consequences for Victoria’s economy," he said.

The entrance to Port Phillip – The Heads – would not allow transit of bigger container ships, he said.

"One shipping company already wants to bring in vessels that carry 8000 containers and many shipbuilding yards have orders for 10,000 container ships."

The Heads was not up to international standards for vessels of this size.

"What will happen to Victoria’s economy if a vessel did hit the rocky sides [of the channel] and sink, blocking the channel?"

Captain Cox said 60 per cent of containers coming into the Port of Melbourne were taken by road to the “Dandenong and Braeside area”. There was not enough room to store containers west of Melbourne but Hastings had 3500 hectares zoned for port-related use. Melbourne had just 560 hectares.

He said the government should lease the Port of Melbourne for 10 years not 50.

Mornington Peninsula Shire and

Frankston Council told the committee Melbourne's second container port should be at Hastings.

"Port development at Hastings is integral to driving continued industry development and business innovation" in the southeast, the shire's submission stated.

It would bring $1 billion in gross regional product by the mid-2030 and an extra 5700 jobs.

Both councils oppose any further deepening of The Heads and Port Phillip shipping channels.

Preserve Western Port Action Group told the committee an expanded Port of Hastings would have "serious adverse consequences for the everyday life of the region, its economy, its social fabric and its biodiversity".

"Construction will involve substantial dredging in Western Port, which in turn will speed up the tides, which will redefine the coastline and compound the effects of climate change."

There was a risk of damaging seagrass and marine animals and endangering the biodiversity and food chains of the region.

Other risks included increased air and noise pollution, illegal discharge of ballast water, collisions and oil spills, and road congestion.

Western Port's $620 million a year tourism industry (including Phillip Island's famous penguin parade) would be harmed. It currently provided 5000 full-time jobs.

Arrests on kidnap charges

woman was intercepted in Frankston North and had her car impounded.

She will be charged on summons with drug driving, disqualified driving and driving an unregistered vehicle.

While police were waiting for the tow truck, a 31-year-old Seaford man was intercepted and will receive an infringement notice for drug driving and his licence will be suspended for three months.

A short time later, a 31-year-old Mt Eliza man was intercepted on Golflinks Rd, Frankston South, and had his car impounded for driving while suspended.

Then, a 32-year-old Somerville woman was intercepted on the same road for driving an unregistered vehicle. She also returned a positive oral fluid test and will be charged on summons with drug driving.

THREE men have been charged by Armed Crime Squad detectives over an alleged kidnapping at Seaford on Monday.

A Somerville man, 35, Kingsville man and Werribee man, both 28, have been charged with kidnapping and related charges.

They were remanded in custody to appear 20 January at Melbourne Magistrates Court.

The victim received minor injuries during the incident.

Can you dig it? Carrum Labor MP Sonya Kilkenny at the official first day of works on the intersection upgrade in Carrum Downs.

Intersection works begin WORK has begun on an $8 million upgrade of the Frankston-Dandenong Rd, Wedge Rd and Boundary Rd intersection in Carrum Downs.

More approach lanes on Boundary Rd and Wedge Rd will be added and traffic lights will be installed at the intersection.

The new traffic lights will mean drivers no longer will have to wait for gaps in oncoming traffic when turning from the side roads onto FrankstonDandenong Rd. Major pre-construction works have been done over several months to relocate underground services at the intersection including power,

lighting and telecommunications.

Carrum Labor MP Sonya Kilkenny said residents had long called for the upgrade and the Labor state government was keeping its promise to upgrade the intersection.

In the five years to December 2013, there were 17 crashes at the intersection, with seven of them resulting in serious injury.

While road works are carried out, access will be maintained through the intersection with reduced speed limits in place.

The intersection upgrade is due to be complete by mid-2016.

War echoes through the ages

An independent voice for the community We are the only locally owned and operated community newspaper in Frankston City and on the Mornington Peninsula. We are dedicated to the belief that a strong community newspaper is essential to a strong community. We exist to serve residents, community groups and businesses and ask for their support in return.

AN exhibition portraying the events of World War I from the perspective of the men and women who endured and fought battles alongside Allied nations will be on display at the Frankston Arts Centre until 12 December.

The ‘Australia Will Be There: Victorians in the First World War (1914-1919)’ exhibition, a travelling exhibition from Melbourne’s Shrine of Remembrance, features photographs and historical documents mapping out the war from the landings at Gallipoli to the battles in Palestine, Passchendaele and Fromelles.

Away from the frontline, the exhibition focuses on the wartime experiences of the people of Victoria, their contribution to the war effort and the growing social

divisions around the bitterly contested but unsuccessful conscription referenda in 1916 and 1917.

Shrine of Remembrance exhibitions and collections director Jean McAuslan said the travelling exhibition honours the centenary of World War I. “It looks at what the war cost in terms of lost lives but also lives that were never the same again. It was a horrendous experience for the world and resonated throughout the generations. “Wars don’t just end on a given day – there are consequences.�

We Deliver Door-to-Door Australia-wide

Council knocks back Tully’s wine outlet Mike Hast mike@baysidenews.com.au

Telltale signs: Somerville Senior Constable Dave Taylor dusts the caravan for fingerprints.

Mobile storage for stolen goods Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au A CARAVAN parked on the Rosebud foreshore and later found to be stolen was a holding pen for property stolen from residential and holiday homes from Carrum Downs to Rosebud.

Inside the caravan and in a stolen Ford Econovan police found an Aladdin’s Cave of missing items valued at thousands of dollars.

The light-fingered “owner” of the vehicles, of Frankston North, was last week charged with 13 counts of burglary, theft, car and caravan stealing, and obtaining property by deception.

He was remanded at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on Friday 23 October to reappear at a date to be fixed.

Detective Senior Sergeant Nick Vallas, of Somerville police complex, said members of the public reported a man “door handling” in the Rosebud area –

walking quickly past cars and trying their door handles to see if they were open – and raised the alarm.

Police drove to the foreshore and interviewed the suspect, who Detective Vallas described as a “transient”.

The man claimed to be the owner of the white Econovan, which was later found to be stolen from South Australia. The caravan’s number plates were allegedly stolen from Page Bros. RV, of Wells Rd, Seaford.

“The fellow could not produce his bona fides as to ownership of the van, the caravan or the goods,” Detective Vallas said. “He consented to a search and police found a lot of property which turned out to be stolen over the previous five days.”

The haul included wallets and their contents from car break-ins at Frankston, Frankston North, Mornington and Mt Eliza, electrical goods and TVs from a Seaford retailer, as well

as the campervan, which was reported missing from Carrum Downs. The total value was estimated at $40,000 for the caravan and its contents and $1000 for the Econovan.

Police will allege credit cards stolen from wallets were used to buy items from unsuspecting retailers. They say keys to several homes had been stolen and then used to rob them of valuables at different times.

“One house in Frankston was broken into in April and then again in the past five days,” Detective Vallas said.

“The man may have travelled back and forth and a lot of property may turn out to have been stolen from over a much longer period.”

Police on Tuesday towed the van and caravan to a secure Mornington Peninsula vehicle depot to sort through the stolen items. They are now working to reunite the rightful owners with their property.

THE owner of Tully's Corner Produce Store on the Moorooduc Highway, Moorooduc, was not a happy man when he left the council chamber in Rosebud on Monday last week.

Frank Brancatisano wanted the council to approve his application to sell in his store bottled wine produced by three nearby wineries – Barmah Park Vineyard and Stumpy Gully Vineyard in Moorooduc, and Massoni Vineyard in Mt Eliza.

He'd spent a motza on reports from town planner Ratio Consultants and was confident that green wedge zone changes made by Coalition planning minister Matthew Guy, before the Napthine government was rolled by Labor, would allow packaged wine sales – so-called "primary produce".

Shire planner James Bryan had recommended the application be approved but when the vote came, it was 6-3 against.

Mr Bryan's report to councillors stated Tully's had a permit for retail sales and "primary produce sales" issued in 2007 but this did not include alcohol or "non-food" products.

Now Tully's wanted to use a corner of its building to "sell wine sourced from vines from adjacent land" during its normal opening hours (9am-6pm Monday-Saturday and 10am-6pm on Sunday).

Just one objection was received by

the shire. A Mt Eliza resident stated that the sale of alcoholic products in the green wedge zone was usually in the form of a "cellar door" for wine produced on a property.

"This application equates to a bottle shop and is prohibited in the green wedge. The sale of locally produced alcoholic products as a means of enhancing the peninsula tourism experience is better conducted from cellar doors.

"The application confuses green wedge zone cellar door-type operations with the traditional bottle shop."

Mornington Peninsula Vignerons Association supported the Tully's application as did several winemakers.

Mr Bryan said green wedge zone changes made by Mr Guy meant "sale of wine produced from grapes grown on 'adjacent land' is now considered to be primary produce sales".

"The sale of wine is to be limited to wines produced from grapes grown within a 3 kilometre radius of [Tully's]".

The council refused the application, stating "the sale of liquor from a retail premises fails to comply with the purpose and intent of" green wedge zone rules, and it would "result in an intensification of a retail use, which is prohibited in the green wedge".

• Mr Brancatisano won approval from the council earlier this year to open a 200 square metre bottle shop at Moorooduc Coolstores, just 1.4km from Tully's.

Professor McPhee was appointed to a Personal Chair in History at the University of Melbourne in 1993.

He has published widely on the history of modern France, most recently Robespierre: a Revolutionay Life.

He was the university's first Provost in 2007-2009 and became a Member of the Order of Australia in 2012.

New members and guests welcome. Please call 9787 2092 at least three days in advance to book a place.

Predators on topic BERG Mt Martha will hold its annual meeting Mt Martha House with a guest Dr Jeff Yugovic speaking on the topic, “Do ecosystems need top predators?”, 9.15am for 9.30am start, Saturday 7 November.

The talk will review native predator-prey imbalances in southeast Australia with reference to tree decline on the Mornington Peninsula.

It will be followed by morning tea.

“This is an opportunity to meet up with other members, find out what BERG Mt Martha has achieved in the past year and hear our most informative speaker,” secretary Di Lewis said.

Barney makes himself right at home Stephen Taylor steve@baysidenews.com.au JACK Russell-cross Barney is still right at home with his master, Alex Downs, even though they are living in aged care.

And that companionship is doing both of them the world of good.

They live at Peninsula Grange Aged Care, Mornington, with Barney’s upkeep paid for by a Pets in Aged Care grant from Animal Welfare League Australia.

The money goes towards behaviour training for one-eyed Barney – the only resident-owned pet – who needs to be taught to eat on his own, rather than accompanying Mr Downs to the dining area.

“He’s a quirky little fellow loved by all the residents but, in the dining area, he gets so many tidbits that it’s not good for his health,” Peninsula Grange events coordinator Katie Turner said.

“He gets stressed when he’s not with Mr Downs and so we are going to use the grant to teach him to be comfortable when eating alone.”

She said this would preserve the pair’s close bond, and also ease the integration of more resident-owned pets into the Booker Av premises.

“The ongoing stimulation, interaction and emotional wellbeing that Barney generates in Alex’s life are priceless,’’ Ms Turner said.

“Their health is of the utmost importance to the staff, as is the comfort and happiness of all our residents. So, it is critical that we have a process for managing pets here.’’

Family bond: Barney and Alex Downs are still able to enjoy each other’s company.

The money will pay for such things as live-in costs, vet bills, grooming, training, dog walking and feeding.

That’s all good news for Barney, 7, who likes the companionship of other residents almost as much as he does his master’s. “He seems to be sitting next to a different person every time I

see him,” Ms Turner said.

The AWLA's interim executive officer Stuart Gillies said evidence showed pets made people happier and healthier. “So, making provision for their pets in aged care accommodation makes good sense,’’ he said.

“Directors of successful pet–friendly

aged care facilities have told us that pets contribute to community feeling and encourage friendships between residents.

“When a resident is strongly bonded to their pet and the live-in pet situation is well managed, the benefits to that resident, other residents and staff should not be underestimated.”

The sounds of music help students find their way

In bloom: Mornington Peninsula Orchid Society members Barry and Marilyn Larkin display orchids at Karingal last month.

Picture: Gary Sissons

Sweet smell and look of success

BUDDING horticulturists can marvel at the blooming success of some of the region’s best orchid growers at Langwarrin this week.

The Mornington Peninsula Orchid Society’s summer exhibition will be on display at the Gateway Shopping Centre on 5-7 November (ThursdaySaturday) during shopping hours.

Society vice-president Barry Larkin said the orchid growers club was established 55 years ago and has members from Frankston, the Mornington Peninsula and Chelsea

and new members are always welcome to join.

Guest expert speakers often address the society meetings held on the 4th of each month, Decembers excepted, at the Brotherhood of St Laurence building, 24-26 High St, Frankston.

“Talking to someone who knows what they’re doing is probably the quickest and easiest way to pick up what you need to know,” he said.

Mr Larkin has been growing orchids since 1985 and says the exhi-

bition at Langwarrin will eature Australian native orchids.

“There’s a particular type that flowers at this time of year.”

See the Mornington Peninsula Orchid Society website at oscov.asn. au for membership details, annual membership is $20. New members can also complete an application form at the Gateway Shopping Centre, 230 Cranbourne - Frankston Rd, Langwarrin at the exhibition stand, 5-7 November.

SONGS and music cut across all boundaries and a concert being held in Mornington this month is being held to help young people take up education rather than crime.

Run by the Brotherhood of St Laurence, the RESET program helps students fit back into mainstream classes at Monterey Secondary College, Frankston.

Concert organisers say lyrics of the song Street Angel sung by Colleen Hewitt about the plight of street kids best expresses their thoughts: “The soul of our nation shines through the eyes of her children.”

The RESET - (Re-engaging Early Secondary Education and Training) - project is designed for 10 and 14 year olds living in Frankston and on the Mornington Peninsula who are disengaged from school and involved with crime.

Since late last year the program has been run in a stand-alone room in the college grounds.

While operating independently, the RESET students, who are enrolled at the college, participate in several school activities, including sport.

They are helped to develop interpersonal problem solving and other skills. One member of RESET’s team is a psychologist, whose work with the students includes cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT).

The program began in response to concerns by Victoria Police and schools that young people were likely to live a life of ongoing disadvantage

BURDETT’S

and crime without appropriate help.

The college provides a part-time teacher’s aide and its staff help to facilitate the transition of young people from the RESET program into mainstream classes.

Money raised through the Mornington concert will help supply students involved in the RESET program with text books and stationary and pay for their transport.

The concert, A Christmas Cracker, is billed as featuring a bass, a baritone, a soprano and a pianist as well as three tenors.

Guest artist is Berlin-based tenor Michael Smallwood who returns to Melbourne for this month’s Melbourne Art and Song Collective at the Melbourne Recital Centre. Also on the bill is The Aspidistra Vocal Quartet, with tenors Richard Hobson and Adrian McEniery, baritone Michael Leighton Jones and bass Jerzy Kozlowski with Michael Fulcher.

The program is by MC Michael Leighton Jones and will also feature the Brotherhood's own soprano Meredith Kerr.

A Christmas Cracker, 7.30pm 27 November Mornington Peninsula Community Theatre, Wilsons Rd, Mornington (Melway 145 E2). Tickets: $60 (concession $50) include tea, coffee and wine from Prancing Hill Estate at interval. Bookings: mpearce@bsl. org.au or call 0407 145 552.

The Brotherhood of St Laurence can arrange transport from aged care homes and other venues.

ALL the elements combine with this superb 4.04 hectare property that offers the ultimate tree-change, where a self-sufficient lifestyle can combine with business pursuits. Quietly tucked away, yet roughly equidistant from Mornington or Tyabb, the sprawling weatherboard ranch style home is the epitome of country character with wide, welcoming verandahs and timber decking on all sides the perfect place to stretch out and enjoy the rural atmosphere.

The interior is largely open-plan with a striking brick hearth as the centrepiece and exquisite Spotted Gum timber

floors that feature throughout the two living spaces and the dining area that adjoins the splendid kitchen which boasts stainless-steel appliances by Blanco and Caesarstone benchtops. The interior is flooded with natural light courtesy of the sliding glass doors that open out to an entertaining deck and alfresco. The main bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe, and an ensuite with heated floor will be handy on colder mornings. Two more bedrooms have built-in robes and share the main bathroom. A separate study could be a fourth bedroom if required. It is the external component

to this picturesque hobby farm that will most entice you to stay. Beautifully fertile land is abundant with orchards, vineyards, vegetable and herb gardens, and there is even the option to run a small amount of livestock with two dams and cattle yards. The enormous machinery shed has its own secure driveway and three-phase power is available from Mornington Tyabb Road to four locations across the estate.

Frankston Times 2 November 2015

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Long awaited ‘Caste’ opens Tuesday Compiled by Melissa Walsh THE annual meeting of the Tyabb Annual Picnic will be held on Monday evening next at 8 o’clock. *** THE “Wattles” Club are holding one of their popular dances tonight (Saturday) when a good time is expected.

One shilling will be charged for admission, and a good supper will be provided. *** WORD has been received at the Frankston Post Office, that on and after the 1st November mails will be due at Frankston at 2.39 p.m. daily, in lieu of 6.11 p.m. as formerly. *** WE have received some schedules and entry forms, relating to the Moorabin Show which will be held at Cheltenham, on the 13th inst.

The proceeds are being devoted to the Australian Sick and Wounded Soldiers Fund, and we understand that quite a number of donations in goods have been received, which will be offered by auction by Mr W. P. Fairlam on the day of the Show. Entries close on the 9th November at the Show office, Cheltenham. *** THE name of Sapper Harold T. H. Reeve appears in the list of those who have died of wounds at Gallipoli. He was the nephew of Messrs C. and T. Cooper, of Frankston, 26 years of age, and followed the occupation of a plummer.

Though he enlisted from Euroa, he

was well known in this district, and was a member of the Malvern and Dandenong brass bands, for both of which he did service as a cornet player. He leaves a father and brother, who reside at Rutherglen. *** THE members of St Paul’s Club, Frankston, have been putting through a big double task in preparing scenery as well as learning and rehearsing their parts in the great three act com edy “Caste,” which is to be staged at Carrum on Tuesday night, and at Frankston on Wednesday night.

The new scenery has been made on new and special lines, and is parti cularly adapted for quick changes be tween the acts. It comprises two separate interiors, and represents a spacious drawing room and a common living room.

The play itself is one of the finest comedies ever staged. It combines farce, burlesque, high class comedy and touching drama, in never ending variety. Written forty years ago, for the Prince of Wales’ Theatre, London, it was recently produced at large theatres in Sydney and Melbourne.

Its theme is one of never failing interest, the law of caste and the meaning of social distinctions. In spite of the great difficulties which attend the staging of such a farce as this, the offering by St Paul’s Club should be well worth seeing.. The rehearsing has been thorough going and the players are well suited to their parts. There will be one or two musical items, as well as the comedy.

As the piece is not short, the audience is requested to be started by eight o’clock sharp. *** A somewhat novel provision has been incorporated in the Justices Act, consolidated, and it is now law. Where a person who is in gaol is prepared to pay a part of his fine the governor of the gaol can accept it and, calculating what portion of the total sentence it represents, deduct that time from the sentence.

If, for instance, a man has been fined a pound and can pay 10s his sentence in default of payment would be reduced by half. This system has been in vogue for some time in New South Wales, where it has been found to work well, and its adoption here meets with the approval of the Crown Law officers, *** THE prolific growth of crops this season is causing officials at the Lands department apprehension of dangers by fire. It has therefore been deemed necessary to issue a very special caution as to the lighting of fires and burning off.

The Minister of Lands invites the cooperation and assistance of all concerned in minimising the risk that must inevitably occur during the approaching summer season.

Wherever possible assistance is to be given to Australian fruit growers to obtain insulated space for perishable goods on transports. *** MR Jensen, Minister for the Navy,

stated on Wednesday that the Director of Transport Captain Clarkson, had recommended to him that a conference should be held with the fruit growers in Australia with regard to their wants over the coming shipping season.

The Minister added that it was his intention, therefore, to have a conference held in about ten days time in Melbourne with a view to ascertaining the amount of insulated space required upon the transports.

Wherever it is possible he intended to assist the fruitgrowers to get their perishable goods on the market in Londod during the months of February, March, April, and May. *** “Polly my pet, my brightest little batswing. and most brilliant burner” Sam the gasman in “Caste.” *** ON Tuesday evening 16th November, the Hon Samuel Mauger (Greatest Temperance Reformer in Australia) will lecture in the local town hall.

The lecture will be on “The War and its affects.” On Thursday evening last the business people of this town met in the hall to discuss the best ways and means of assisting the band. The band is worthy of assistance and it was agreed to hold a concert and dance on November 19th. The programme for the concert will consist of Melbourne and local talent. The following officers were duly elected.— Chairman Mr R. Davis; secretary, Mr E T Kinninmont; treasurer, Mrs O’Neill; committee, Messrs H Knox, P. Ryan, D. Hoban, A. T. Denison, A. Campbell,

F. Strickland, A. Perrot, G. Hoglund(?) and Mrs Kay. “M’ladyship, you and me’d have a dream together on the quiet.” Eccles, in “Caste.” *** AN error crept in the paragraph devoted to the Langwarrin Tennis Club last issue. Mr Herbert Oates was the winner of the racket and press, not Mr H Carrs, as reported. *** TWO of our young men, W.Thomas and Leo.McNally, have entered into partnership as market gardeners to supply the residents cost to the railway station. They do not intend to compete for outside local trade. Any surplus supplies will be sent to Melbourne for export. We wish them every success. *** MISS Gillard, who succeeded Mr H Tidiman, as health teacher of the local state school here, is proving very painstaking with the scholars, and good results are to be expected at the examinations to be held this month. *** AT a committee meeting it was decided to asphalt the floor of the shelter shed of the school. Mr G. Upton was elected correspondent and Mr P.J.Murray treasurer. It was decided to grant a school holiday one day this month to enable scholars to attend the Methodist Sunday School picnic. *** VERY few of our punters picked Patrobas for the Cup. In one instance a soldier invested £5 and won £100.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Captain Tightpants and the exploding casserole of death

By Stuart McCullough WITH the benefit of hindsight, I am not proud of my behaviour. Frankly, I could have been more compassionate, more sympathetic. But in your late teens and early twenties, ‘nuance’ is something of a stranger and every emotion is extreme. I was no different in this regard. It was these traits together whether a lack of guile that can only be described as ‘spectacular’ that made me a truly lousy housemate.

Share house living is an experience best enjoyed as nostalgia. As wonderful as it is, it’s a time in your life that you spend the rest of your days trying never to repeat. I remember it as a shock to the system. One day, you’re living at home with your parents and in danger of being grounded if you so much as leave a pair of socks on the ground. The next you’re in squalor, surrounded by anarchy and setting secondhand furniture on fire in an attempt to keep warm.

I lived with all kinds of people.

From artists to religious zealots to new age hippies and engineers. There were insomniacs and those who hibernated until well after noon. Left wing, right wing, chicken wing: I cohabitated with them all. As for me, a reasonable description might be ‘steadfastly uptight’. But as uptight as I was, it was nothing compared to one guy I lived with.

I shouldn’t use his real name. For all I know, he’s mellowed out and is now the nicest guy in the world. For the sake of anonymity, let’s call him ‘Winston Churchill’. No, wait – I can do better. Perhaps ‘Captain Tightpants’ is a more suitable name. Me and the

Captain lived with another guy who, although entirely reasonable and normal should also be awarded the cloak of anonymity so I’m going to call him ‘Chuck D’. The three of us lived in a share house in Clayton.

We were all quite different; the Cap-

tain, Chuck and I. What we had in common was our domestic ineptitude.

None of us could cook or had any idea how to run a household. Wide-eyed and witless, we simply did the best we could. Back then, the cornerstone of my culinary repertoire was a dish

I now refer to as ‘cheese glue with tuna’. Frankly, I was a hopeless cook.

The Captain, on the other hand, was not quite as good as I was.

I’m not sure what its official title was. Perhaps ‘the slab’. Consisting of mixed vegetables doused in an anonymous syrup, crowned with a layer of burnt chops as some kind of carnivorous canopy; all poured into a glass casserole dish and frozen solid. When Captain Tightpants produced this solidified chunk of yuck from the deep freeze of the Kelvinator, I had my doubts. These doubts quickly transformed to outright suspicion as the Captain proceeded to cook his frozensolid monstrosity by plonking it on the stovetop and cranking up the heat way, way up.

The coil turned a bright, sulfuric red.

The slab groaned as the heat and deepfreeze wrestled with each other. When it gave way, it sounded like thunder.

With a ‘crack’, the glass casserole dish exploded, sending vegetable remnants and the chop covering in all directions across the kitchen. I’ll admit, I found it somewhat amusing. That, or so I thought, was the last I’d see of the slab.

But I was so very wrong. When dinner was served, it looked a lot like post-explosion vegetable casserole.

Granted, as a result of the force of the blast, it was hard to recognize anything much. Demanding an explanation, I was told by Captain Tightpants that he’d saved the meal by scraping off the blast debris into a saucepan and reheating it. Lifting the first forkful, I could see shards of glass sticking out.

I instantly declared I would eat not one mouthful on occupational health and

safety grounds. Chuck D needed little persuading and joined my boycott. We quickly let the table; electing, instead, to get fish and chips. The Captain ate every last morsel.

A more mature person might have steered clear and avoided conflict. Or maybe even found a new place to live.

I, however, was not a mature person. I decided that the best way to deal with such a delicate situation was to write a story about it and submit it to a radio station. It was, apparently, read out with some fanfare. Frankly, I spilled my guts more than I ought to have.

I wrote about the time the Captain tore down a picture of musician Paul Kelly on the grounds that he ‘looked Satanic’, choosing to omit that I had then put it up again after defacing it through the addition of horns and a tail. I recounted his violin playing that, to me at least, sounded like a mosquito death-spiral, leaving out the fact that I owned an acoustic guitar and was prone to caterwauling of my own.

I didn’t hear them read it out. But I knew I’d crossed a line when parishioners from Captain Tightpant’s church turned up at the house to stage an intervention. At the time, I was predictably unrepentant. But now, with the benefit of hindsight, I have come to regret my actions. As is the way with share houses, we each drifted in our own direction and I have no idea what became of the Captain. Maybe he mellowed out. Part of me likes to think he became a chef. But wherever you may be, dear Captain Tightpants, I wish you well. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Music  Arts  Food THE MOUNTAIN: A COMING OF AGE

By Melissa Walsh “Shaun Ryan, our bass player, helped a lot with the vocals too, and this album we concentrated a lot more on the singing as the sound.”

Lachlan Bryan is back and forth from his house in Richmond and Mt Eliza but still calls the peninsula home.

The 34-year-old country music sensation has done the peninsula proud with his band Lachlan Bryan and The Wildes since their album debut six years ago.

For the release of this record, Bryan says he’s grown a mountain climber’s beard, and reckons he needs it.

The dynamic team has since had three hit albums and released their fourth, The Mountain, on 25 September.

The highly anticipated album comes two years after their smash hit, 2013’s Black Coffee, which won the 2014 Golden Guitar for Alternative Country Album of the Year and The Age Music Victoria Award for Best Country Album of the Year. The album, which debuted at number 12 on the ARIA Australian Albums Charts, confirmed Bryan as one of Australia’s finest new country singers and songwriters.

The Alternative Country and Folk band released their much awaited album last week, coinciding with a national tour.

Billed as Bryan’s most personal album yet, The Mountain features 12 brand new songs recorded in his hometown of Melbourne.

“The songs on the new album are definitely more personal, and a sign I think that we are maturing as musicians. It’s not just about the music, it’s about telling a story,” says Bryan. “When I first started writing

“There’s blood in these songs, between the lines and the back story. It’s the most personal we have done,” says Bryan of the landmark recording from one of the country’s most versatile collectives.

songs I was influenced by people like Bob Dylan and Tom Waites, who write more about other people. I decided to dig deep and write from my own personal experience for this album.”

Bryan says the reason it’s called The Mountain is to signify the journey.

“It’s like a coming of age album, with a personal element of the journey of going through hard times. When you reach the top of the mountain you realise it’s all about the journey, and that you still have to come

back down, and find another peak to climb,” he says.

For Bryan and the rest of the band, this album has been particularly enjoyable to make.

“We took longer to write and record this one. Our drummer, Mat Duniam, who’s a Frankston boy, did all the arrangements for the horn section, and had a lot of input into the songs,” says Bryan, who first met Duniam on a train on the Frankston line.

Recording The Mountain in the studio, Bryan was joined by drummer Mat Duniam, bassist Shaun Ryan, and guitarist Damian Cafarell, alongside legendary session player James Gillard (Paul Kelly, Kasey Chambers), pianist Ben Grayson (The Bamboos), and pedal steel player Seamus O’Sullivan (Ruby Boots, Bakersfield Glee Club).

The Mountain has been called Lachlan Bryan and The Wildes at “their careworn, uncluttered best. Lacquered throughout with nostalgic guitar parts straight out of the Sun Records playbook, the album traverses dancehall rock’n’roll, heartworn alt. countryAmericana, and freewheeling rockabilly.”

To coincide with the album’s release Lachlan Bryan and The Wildes will be playing at The Caravan Club on Saturday 7 November. lachlanbryan.com

Wickets tumble at Mt Eliza PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully IT was a tough day for batsmen in ordinary conditions on Saturday in MPCA Provincial cricket.

The result was 16 wickets falling in the match between top teams Mt Eliza and Baxter.

Mt Eliza won the toss and elected to bat in the round three match at Emil Madsden Reserve but things went pearâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;shaped after the openers in Tim Clarke (30) and Chris Whisbey (16) went out.

Other than Brendan Jovic at 11, the

Mt Eliza batsmen failed to get into double figures.

The likes of Justin Grant (4), Tim Stickland (5) and Keith Briggs (4) all failed with the bat and the home team was bowled out for just 111.

Chamika Sattambi made it 13 wickets in three matches after snaring 5/26 from 12.1 overs.

Ben Brittain bowled eight overs, had four maidens and took 2/16.

Baxter was certainly in the box seat going out to bat. However, at stumps, the visitors were reeling at 6/74.

Openers Shane McComb and Daniel Lanati were both dismissed with

the score on five and Daniel Warwick fell for 13 when the score was on 26.

Four runs later, Chris Brittain (10) was back in the sheds.

Todd Quinn (13) and Leigh Paterson (10) will resume not out this week while Ben Brittain is more than handy with the bat also.

One senses this one will go to the wire.

Jovic was the pick of the bowlers for the Redlegs with 4/20 from nine overs.

Pines has set Moorooduc 188 for victory after the home side survived 72 overs on Saturday.

Jeremy Weare returned for the

Piners and had an immediate impact, opening with 30, while Pat Jackson contributed 28 batting at four. Rhys Chalkley (35) was also a significant contributor at seven.

Moorooduc skipper Leigh Lambert was the best of the bowlers with 5/41 from 18.2 overs.

In reply, the Ducs are 0/2.

Rye is once again in terrible shape, this time against Crib Point.

The Demons are staring at another outright loss after being bowled out for 67 in the first innings on Saturday at RJ Rowley Reserve.

Andrew Hitchener was again the

Rye batsman to contribute on the scoreboard with 15, while Andrew Dunn scored 17.

Glen Barclay was sensational for the Magpies, picking up nine wickets.

Brad Arnold prevented Barclay from picking up all 10.

The Magpies then put together a quick fire 6/106 with Luke Herrington smacking 55 and Ricky Thompson an unbeaten 24 before sending the Demons back into bat at the end of the day.

Rye will resume at 2/26, still 13 runs behind with eight wickets in hand.

Tigers tame Panthers DISTRICT

By IT Gully SEAFORD Tigers has put itself in a strong position to pick up the 12 points after taming the Pearcedale Panthers in District cricket on Saturday.

The newly promoted Panthers have started the 201516 season in sensational fashion, winning their first two matches, however they did stumble against the Tigers on Saturday.

It was only a few seasons ago that these sides were playing against each other in Sub District.

The Panthers batted first and were rolled for just 128.

Shane Maggs (34) and Shayne Gillings (40) were the only batsmen to offer any resistance, while Brad Trotter did open with 15 and Chris Dew hit 16.

Jordan Watters, who has promised to burst onto the scene for a number of seasons, was superb for the Tigers with the new ball, snaring 5/57 off 22 overs.

The evergreen Ash Mills was also on top of his game yet again with 3/12.

In reply, Anthony Joel is already back in the sheds courtesy of Dew (1/1) after the Tigers had to face the last two overs of the day. They will resume at 1/7.

Boneo has set Red Hill a reasonable target for victory after scoring 182 themselves on Saturday up at the hill.

Batting first, the Pandas scored their highest total of the year and put themselves in a reasonable position to challenge on day two.

Tom McCarthy has taken this competition by the scruff of the neck for Red Hill, picking up 5/33 to add to his six wickets in round two. He has 11/68 from 42 overs with 20 maidens in two matches.

Andrew Mock and Lincoln Toy each claimed two wickets.

In reply, the Hillmen are 0/10.

Carrum will need to bat better than it has in the opening two matches of the season to get the 176 runs required to beat Mt Martha.

The Reds batted first on Saturday and made 175, thanks largely to 45 runs from wicket keeper/batsman Ben Shorthouse, who batted at three, 29 from Brett Wilkinson and 20 from Tim Moran.

Jeremy Graves was the pick of the Carrum bowlers, opening with 3/29, while Liam Dobson and Jake Dâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;Atri each snared two wickets.

In reply, Carrum faced the last three overs of the day and will resume at 0/5.

WHILE most MPNFL clubs went off the boil in recent times to allow players to enjoy some post-season rest and relaxation, it now appears that the ‘silly season’ is starting to heat up.

The Toe Punt Facebook page has been busy during the week. Here’s a snapshot of what is being talking about.

Hillmen on the move Red Hill has been very busy, signing s number of players.  Ben Jacobson, 6’5 ruckman ex Tyabb, former elite basketballer.  Sean Marchetti, 30yo hard on baller, two time premiership player with Cora-Lynn, has played eastern district league and Casey with Beaconsfield F.C.  Luke Marchetti, 21yo running half back, is a triple premiership player with Cora-Lynn, former TAC player with Sandringham Dragons.  Mitch Wallace 22yo CHB (pictured below) strongly built, mobile triple premiership player with Cora-Lynn, former TAC player and has played Casey Cardinia League.  Adam Marchetti, Cora-Lynn, strongly built U18 interleague player.

In other Red Hill club news, veteran club administrator Jim White has taken over as President of the club replacing Roger Siversen, Roger will stay with the club and assist with sponsorship and marketing.

In other news  Chris Hay has returned to Karingal after spending a couple of seasons at Tarwin.  Sorrento has signed 25-year-old key forward/ruckman and three times State VAFA representative centre half forward Nick Corp.

He was runner up in Old Collegians B&F in A Grade Amateurs last year.  Sorrento is also in deep discussions with a multiple peninsula league team of the year forward.

 Rye signed Rosebud young-gun Sean Downie, who later withdrew his interest to go to the club to remain at Rosebud. However, Jimmy Jennings and James Appleford have both returned from Dolphins while they have also secured VAFA representative player Harry Witty.  Rosebud has lost gun forward Tom Baker to Casey, while premiership stars Jason Bristow and Rob Forrest have also left. Bristow is going to Parkdale and Forrest, despite what some may say, is tossing up between Parkdale and Sorrento.  Former Rye and Pines coach Steve Ryan is now in charge at St Bedes/Mentone.  Mt Eliza is likely to lose stars Rohan Heasley, Scott Lockwood and Bean Lean in the transition, while Dave Willett has signed at Chelsea as assistant coach.  Edithvale has lost Matt Clark, Brad Tagg and Pat Poore to Foster to play with Nick Connellan and Brent Bowden, Brett O’Hanlon has gone to play in the bush and Tim Mavric and Jordy Derbyshire have gone to Hampton Park.

Benson farewelled Ian Benson, who has been involved in local football for more than 40 years and has served as an administrator for more than 25 years, was made redundant by AFL SE last week.

Benson, who has had a significant impact on the competition in the past three decades, did not fit into the new-look structure of the competition.

The transition from Peninsula Alliance to AFL SE has seen all former administrators, Jeff Jones, Ian Benson and Sue Jones all moved on.

All league directors, who were charged with the responsibility to provide strategic direction and manage financial governance of the competition, were also voted out by clubs earlier this year.

At the end of the current financial year, the MPNFL recorded a loss of $150,000, which eliminated all cash reserves.

Fortunately, the clubs were able to hang-on to their only asset, the MPNFL headquarters at Somerville.
