Bird lover facing bullying backlash THE clue to the passion of Paris Yves is contained on her business card: Parrot Productions - bird behaviourist, animal activist. The logo at the bottom of the card states “Wonderful world of non human animals”. Ms Yves, of Mt Eliza, offers free bird behaviour advice so that their owners can rest assured their pets are not suffering through a lonely, unnatural and unethical life. Although well intentioned, Ms Yves is upsetting people, mainly those who breed and sell birds. Quick to let the authorities know about any transgression of the law or cruelty being shown to birds, Ms Yves latest target is raising more than a few feathers among bird collectors and breeders. She says complaints she lodged last month about an annual “bird sale and expo” at Skye have led to her being bullied, but not bowed. ‘Accusations over bird sale’, Page 5

Decision dogs council Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au THE fate of two dogs who escaped from a Frankston backyard late last year remains unclear despite council initially declaring a final decision on whether to “humanely euthanise” the animals would be made last Friday. The dogs, bull mastiff-cross Charlie and shar pei-cross Sharni, have
been held in a council pound since November after they killed a cat while on the loose. The animals’ owners, Shannon Holt and Evan Jeremiejczyk, who live in Frankston, had taken their attempts to save the dogs all the way to the Supreme Court. The owners’ plight has attracted national interest and RSPCA South Australia and other interstate animal welfare groups offered late last week to take the dogs into their care to
in February, Ms Holt and Mr Jeremiejczyk pleaded guilty to charges of failing to register a dog, having a dog at large and a dog attack causing death. The pair claimed council had “deceived them” by advising they would not seek an order to destroy the dogs if the owners pleaded guilty. Frankston Council said it had been agreed that the case would be reviewed. After a review was conducted,

avoid the need to kill the pets. Council advised an update would be provided by “close of business” on Friday but then postponed any further statement. In March, the Supreme Court granted an injunction temporarily preventing council from putting the dogs down. Frankston Council said there was a “risk” the dogs could attack another animal or person if they were released back to their owners. At a Magistrates’ Court hearing

council stated the original decision to put down the animals would stand. Council CEO Dennis Hovenden said the safety of Frankston residents and their animals was imperative. “The decision was based on the nature and impact of the attack on the cat last year, and on the risk of further attack on an animal or a person should the dogs be released,” he said.

Anger mounts over aged care ‘sell-off’ Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au PENINSULA Health has come under fire over plans to privatise its last remaining residential aged care centres, with members of staff and families of patients holding a protest last week to voice their concerns. Shadow minister for seniors and ageing Jenny Mikakos joined about 30 protesters at Carinya Nursing Home in Golf Links Rd, Frankston on Thursday to condemn plans to transfer the operation of the centre to a private operator. Peninsula Health has invited not-forprofit and non-government care providers to tender for the rights to operate Carinya, which has 30 beds, and the 18bed Michael Court centre in Seaford, as well as the “the opportunity to acquire a further 42 licenses for future residential aged care expansion”. Both centres provide specialist care for elderly people suffering mental illnesses and behavioural problems associated with dementia, schizophrenia and bipolar disorders who cannot be managed in mainstream aged care homes. The 70 full and part-time staff employed across the two sites have been told they will be offered “ongoing roles at other Peninsula Health sites”. However, Health and Community Services Union state secretary Lloyd Williams said staff were “extremely concerned” about both care standards provided for the “highly vulnerable” residents and potential job cut backs at the two facilities. “We’re at a loss to explain why they’d chose to go down this path other than to cut wages and wind back
conditions,” Mr Williams said. “These individuals require extremely specialised care which they are currently getting from the devoted and purpose trained staff at the two centres, so a major change like this can be very traumatising for them.” He said wages and conditions such as staff-to-patient ratios under public sector enterprise bargaining agreements were far better than those in the private sector. “So this has nothing to do with quality and everything to do with driving down wages and costs,” Mr Williams said. “The government’s own description of this service says is that they are specialist bed-based services for people who cannot be managed in mainstream aged residential care due to emotional or the behavioural disturbance. “They are being handed over to the for-profit or non-government sector, which will only be able to make them viable by cutting costs through decreased care standards. These are some of the most vulnerable people in our community and the Napthine Government is abandoning them.” However, Peninsula Health officials say the decision is due to inadequate capital reserves to finance necessary future expansion. The move follows Peninsula Health’s transfer in 2012 of residential aged care operations at Rosebud to Southern Cross Care and means Peninsula Health will no longer operate any aged care facilities. It is anticipated the new operator will transfer all 90 licensed beds to a single purpose-build residential care centre. Ms Mikakos said there was no guar-

antee the beds would remain specialist mental health beds, or would remain in the local area in the future. She said the “sell-off”, which created great uncertainty for patients, had been forced by the Napthine Government’s lack of funding and support for the aged care sector. “This is terrible news for staff, residents and families at Carinya and Michael Court – their future is now uncertain,” Ms Mikakos said. “Denis Napthine is hell bent on privatising our proud, publicly-run aged care facilities, and only Labor will put a stop to it.” But Health Minister David Davis said the “partnership” deal Peninsula Health was looking at with a private
operator would lead to an expansion of aged care services for the Frankston and peninsula community by reopening aged care beds closed under Labor. “Jenny Mikakos should be ashamed of this latest Labor scare campaign when she knows full well that, in fact, it was Labor who oversaw the closures of aged care beds in Frankston and Rosebud in 2009,” a spokesman for Mr Davis said. “The Peninsula Health proposal follows the successfully negotiated transfer of places between Peninsula Health and Southern Cross Care for the Rosebud Residential Aged Care Facility on the Mornington Peninsula. As part of this transfer, Southern Cross Care will
be increasing the number of beds available to the community from 50 to 120. “This will include the development of a new facility on the Cairns Avenue site over the coming years, providing new employment opportunities for locals.” He said the federal government regulated all residential aged care services across Australia, which meant that regardless of whether they are run by government or non-government operators, they must all comply with the same national standards. “The Coalition government wants to see growth in aged care places, continued provision of high quality services as well as facilities and infrastructure that meet modern 21st century standards.”

Accusations fly over bird sale Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au MORE than feathers are being ruffled among bird breeders following allegations of mistreatment of birds offered for sale last month at Skye. Paris Yves has complained to the RSPCA and Department of Environment and Primary Industries about the cruel treatment of parrots being displayed in small, inadequate boxes. A long time campaigner against mistreatment of birds either kept as pets of for breeding, Ms Yves, of Mt Eliza, says she has been bullied since going public with her latest complaints. The bird “sale and expo” at the Western Port Highway headquarters of Dogs Victoria was run by the Mornington Peninsula Avicultural Society on Sunday 25 May. The society’s president, David Renshaw, did not want to comment on the allegations by Ms Yves without first discussing it with the society’s committee. “I’m not prepared to give you a comment without prior notice,” he said. He said the matter had been placed in the hands of a solicitor. Mr Renshaw said all bird sales were run under a code of practice, which was “scrutinised by scrutineers”. Photographs taken by Ms Yves at the bird sale show a large sign stating a code of practice administered by the Victorian Avicultural Council. However, Ms Yves said it was unsatisfactory to have the VAC “policing themselves”. “It is inexcusable that most birds -

except the Gouldian finches in the lovely great aviary - were displayed in such an unethical way,” she said. “It was truly like walking through the back streets of an Indian market. “I am amid a public campaign so that Australians can finally discover the truth about companion bird abuse and lack of welfare and lack of laws. There is no going back now.”
Ms Yves’s emails to and discussions with breeders had come down to semantics, with some breeders claiming birds kept for breeding purposes were not companion birds. She says the law does not differentiate between the terms. A cockatoo breeder, “who also admitted that there are welfare problems at bird sales”, referred to birds at the sale
as aviary birds and not pet birds. “There is legally no difference. The DEPI welfare codes clearly includes all captive/caged birds,” Ms Yves said. “I don’t think you will get a response from the market organisers - they are in damage control. Since they have breached all codes there is nothing positive they can say, the damage is done. “The VAC failed terribly and has lost
all credibility, which is why I am receiving bullying and rude emails.” Letters published in this month’s edition of Talking Birds magazine appear to confirm Ms Yves’s complaints about the expo. An anonymous letter writer from South Australia admits the bird boxes “could have been a bit bigger” but goes on to say small boxes are safer for birds and that the birds “may be distressed, but from other noises and movement, not because they are ill”. “Yes, there are some who break the rules, which is then used against others because one bad apple corrupts the rest,” the letter states. A second letter by J Milosevic (via email) says there is no doubt about Ms Yves’s good intentions and then refers to guidelines “which, unfortunately, were ignored in the case of the photos in her email”. “Guidelines and rules exist but are often ignored and I found it rather ironic that the sale where the women took the photos in her email had a large banner setting out the rules prominently displayed … what is the point of words on that banner when the rules were not enforced at that event? “If that had been done she would have had no ammunition which could be used to attack sales, demanding that they be banned. “Well, now it has happened and I hope that you keep track of what the state bodies do from now on about running sales properly, because it is obvious that at least one, the Victorian mob, has lost the plot.”

New imam at mosque
Proudly published by Mornington Peninsula News Group Pty. Ltd

Circulation: 29,020
SYED Wadood Janud has been appointed imam at the Ahmadiyya Muslim community’s mosque in Langwarrin. Mr Janud, the first Australian Ahmadiyya missionary, completed his primary and secondary schooling in Adelaide before attaining his degree in Islamic theology and comparative religions in Canada. The seven-year course at the Ahmadiyya Institute of Islamic Studies, in Maple, Canada, was followed by six months as an imam of Ahmadiyya Muslim Community in Liberia. Mr Janud sees his main role at the Ahmadiyya Centre Melbourne in Langwarrin (formally known as Baitul-Salam or House of Peace) as being “to lead prayers and train members in religious matters, but I would also work for interfaith harmony and to build bridges between communities”. “My life is devoted to the cause of peace, harmony and love for all, hatred for none, and my doors will always be open to the community members for any help and advice.” The president of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Association Victoria, Javed Safdar Choudhary, said the appointment of the new imam at Langwarrin “dawns a new era in our efforts to work closely on community relations and make bridges”. Al Islam, the “official” website of the Ahmadiyya Muslim Community, describes the community as “the leading Islamic organisation to categorically reject terrorism in any form”

Plea for pets: Shannon Holt and Evan Jeremiejczyk (far left) joined protesters at Frankston Civic Reserve last Thursday to appeal to council not to euthanise their two dogs. Picture: Gary Sissons
Council mauled over dogs Continued from Page 1 Mr Hovenden said the mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, and councillors fully supported the decision. Lawyers for Companion Animals principal Anne Greenaway, who has been acting on behalf of Ms Holt and Mr Jeremiejczyk, said Frankston Council was “the worst council” she had ever dealt with. “They have been unbelievably cruel and disrespectful to my clients,” Ms Greenaway told The Times. Ms Greenaway understood council had rejected RSPCA South Australia and other interstate animal welfare groups’ offers to take
the dogs into their care in a move which would avoid the need for the dogs to be destroyed. “Council have taken such a hardline position on this from the start that if they’re released and people see these dogs are not marauding, dangerous killers they will look like complete idiots,” Ms Greenaway said. The lawyer said council should have had no problem sending the dogs interstate if they were so concerned with Frankston residents’ safety. “It wouldn’t be an issue for them.” Frankston Council advised an update on the situation would be provided on Monday (7 July).

Premier slips in without notice Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au HE came. He saw many, but not Shaw. Premier Denis Napthine arrived in Frankston last week at short notice and strolled the streets to greet and meet residents in an effort to woo voters in the marginal seat. Dr Napthine’s visit could be the first of many in the lead up to November’s state election with the seat poised on a knife edge and the Liberal and Labor parties keen to oust incumbent Geoff Shaw. Independent MP Mr Shaw holds the seat by an estimated 0.4 per cent after electorate boundary redistributions late last year. The Premier and Liberal candidate for Frankston Sean Armistead were trailed by a Melbourne media scrum but local press were not notified of Dr Napthine’s surprise visit. Mr Shaw was nowhere to be seen while the premier patrolled the Frankston MP’s home patch. A chance meeting between the pair could have been interesting. Channel 9’s A Current Affair tabloid TV show last week featured an interview with Mr Shaw in which he called Dr Naphine “gutless”. Mr Shaw said he was not guilty of the offence that led to him being suspended from parliament for 11 sitting days – the misuse of a parliamentary vehicle – and hinted any forced apology he would be forced to make as a condition of his return could be “insincere”. While in town, the Premier met

Frankston mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, to discuss high-profile Frankston issues. Cr Taylor said the meeting had been productive. “We have his assurances that we will have access to the relevant ministers in relation to the concerns we have about the city centre and particularly the train station precinct,” Cr Taylor said. Some Frankston councillors have criticised the state government’s latest $13.8 million Frankston Station Precinct Improvement Plan draft proposal as a “broken promise” since it does not include an upgraded bus interchange
and larger car park. Dr Napthine praised Frankston as “a growing and diverse” city. He praised Mr Armistead as “a great local candidate”. Mr Armistead said voters could trust him, having voted in Liberal candidate Mr Shaw at the previous 2010 state election only to subsequently see him leave the party. “As a local, people know me and they know what I stand for,” he said. The temporary absence of a Labor candidate for Frankston after Helen Constas’ sudden withdrawal from the

race last month was a positive for the Liberals, according to Mr Armistead. “It’s the old saying – you’ve got to make hay while the sun shines,” he said. “We’re out there and we’re talking to everybody.” Frankston councillor James Dooley has put his hand up for preselection as Labor’s candidate but the party has not yet named the replacement candidate for Ms Constas. The Premier refused to confirm whether the Liberals would agree a preference votes deal with the likes of the Rise Up Australia Party and the

Palmer United Party to swing the marginal seat of Frankston in their favour. “The preference arrangements will ultimately be decided by our administrative wing and they’ll certainly work with other candidates and other parties to seek preference flows to Sean and the Liberal Party,” Dr Napthine said. He said the Liberals would not do deals with “extremist” political parties but declined to specifically name them. The premier noted the Coalition had decided to preference the Greens last at the previous state election in a decision that he said was “vindicated”.

Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au COMMUNICATIONS Minister Malcom Turnbull last week dropped in to Frankston to inspect progress on the rollout of the National Broadband Network and to discuss measures to address mobile phone coverage. Accompanied by federal member for Dunkley Bruce Billson, Mr Turnbull visited a site near Hillcrest Rd in Frankston South where contractors are laying fibre optic cables that will see about 8000 homes and businesses connected to the high-speed broadband network by the end of the year. The rollout, covering an area of Frankston South and Karingal, is Frankston’s first under the Coalition government’s “fibre to the node” model, which replaces the former Labor government’s plan to connect homes directly to the NBN network. It is unknown when the rest of Frankston, including the city centre, will be connected to the NBN network, however, Mr Turnbull said it would be far sooner – and cheaper – than would have been the case under the Labor plan. He said the Coalition government was determined to see the NBN rolled out to areas most in need, such as Frankston which has been dogged by poor internet access and mobile phone coverage. “The NBN roll out is progressing well in Dunkley and I'm pleased to announce build preparation has started to a further 2400 premises in Langwarrin,” Mr Turnbull said. “We are getting on with the job and work has been completed/partially completed to connect The Heath Estate in Langwarrin and Peninsula Grange Retirement Village in Mornington and further areas will be announced later this year. “The Government will continue to look at ways to make the NBN faster and more affordable than the previous government's plan and will work with the private sector to ensure efficient delivery and rollout.” Mr Billson and Mr Turnbull later met with business owners, council representatives and service

providers to discuss progress on the NBN. Frankston CEO Dennis Hovenden said the meeting was “very encouraging with regard to giving local businesses access to high-speed broadband sooner”. “The minister advised council to make a submission providing the government with the economic rationale for rolling out high-speed broadband in both the Frankston city centre and the SeafordCarrum Downs industrial precinct,” he said.
Mr Billson said Mr Turnbull’s visit was an important follow-up to the pre-election visit where the focus was on “accelerating high speed affordable broadband to underserviced areas, particularly for local businesses and commercial hubs”. “Today we witnessed the first fibre splice in Frankston which will help pass 8100 residential premises in the electorate by the end of the year,” he said. Mr Billson said plans for future connections in the electorate would be announced soon, blaming the previous Labor government for delays. He said that under Labor, Frankston was unlikely to have been connected to the NBN until 2022, while the Coalition had committed to connecting all homes in the area, and across Australia to the network of speed of 25 megabits per second by the end of 2016 and 50 megabits per second by 2019. Mr Billson also called on residents to help address mobile phone coverage issues by nominating known black spots to receive funding under the Coalition’s $100 million Mobile Black Spot program. “The program works to extend mobile phone coverage in outer metropolitan areas like ours,” Mr Billson said. “I have noticed and other people have reported several spots in Frankston South and along the Nepean Highway between Mt Eliza and Mornington where coverage is poor and phone calls often drop out or the signal fades. “Not only is this frustrating for people wanting to stay in touch with family, friends and their workplace, access to reliable mobile coverage is a crucial pre-condition for the many businesses using smart phone apps as a key part of their business toolkit. Nominations close soon and I encourage the community to nominate mobile black spots in the electorate so we can improve coverage in the area.” The government expects to start a competitive selection process in the second half 2014, with a view to announcing the locations which have been selected for funding in the first half of 2015. Suggestions can be emailed to mobilecoverage@communications.gov.au

Dadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school effort earns award listing RON Spilling simply wants his son Lochlanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s school to be a better place, and his efforts in matching that desire has earned him a nomination in the Frankston City Education Awards. Mr Spilling was nominated by fellow parent Kylie Fisher for creating two garden areas â&#x20AC;&#x201C; one that replaced an â&#x20AC;&#x153;uglyâ&#x20AC;? bin enclosure â&#x20AC;&#x201C; and building seating around the netball court and other jobs to improve Seaford Park Primary School. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The school surrounds have lifted to be a beautiful space that our students and the wider community enjoy,â&#x20AC;? Ms Fisher said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The lawns are always immaculate, old fencing has been removed and the maintenance shed has been organised, to name just a few of the extra things Ron does.â&#x20AC;? The theme of the Frankston City Education Awards is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Rewarding Improvementâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;, with categories for students, teachers and parents at both primary and secondary level, and students and teachers in training organisations or a com-
munity setting. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ronâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s story is a great example of how parents contribute to their childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s education and set a great example of hard work,â&#x20AC;? Mayor Darrel Taylor said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m sure there are more stories like this at other schools, and I strongly encourage anyone who knows of a student, teacher or parent who strives for improvement to nominate them so we all know of their great efforts.â&#x20AC;? All nominations will be assessed, with the winner in all eight categories receiving $500. Nominations close on 15 August with further details at www.frankston.vic.gov.au or by phoning 1300 322 322. The Education Awards are run by Frankston Council and sponsored by four key local education supporters: Monash University, Chisholm Institute, South East Water and the Frankston Mornington Peninsula Local Learning and Employment Network (LLEN).

Port surveys end in August Mud pack: Volunteers plant mangroves along the northern shores of Western Port where erosion and man-made drains are responsible for delivering 90,000 tonnes of silt into the bay.
Mudlark in the mangroves said planting mangroves was “very challenging, not only because of the difficulty in establishing mangroves in this hostile environment, but also because of the difficulty it poses to our volunteers”. “Wading through this deep gooey mud is hard dirty work, only rewarded by a cold water wash down and abandonment of irretrievably filthy cloths and footwear,” he said. Mr Newton hoped the young mangroves would become “a selfsustaining mangrove forest along this problematic coastline”. “A forest to tame the aggressive shoreline erosion, protect disappearing salt marshes, and help seagrass recovery by reducing the smothering sticky sediments that are currently entering Western Port.”
TRUDGING through the thick mud of the northern shores of Western Port may not be everybody’s idea of a day out, but it can be worthwhile for those who care for the environment. Members of the Western Port Seagrass Partnership (WPSP) spent a day planting mangroves off an eroded section of the bay’s shoreline at Lang Lang. Their efforts mean that 1000 young mangroves have been planted this year. Port of Hastings Development Authority CEO Mike Lean and some of his staff joined volunteer planters from Western Port Landcare Group, Swamp Landcare, Mornington Peninsula Youth Enterprises and Monash University. WPSP secretary Doug Newton
Mr Newton said CSIRO studies showed up to 30,000 tonnes of silt entered Western Port waters from this coastline which was eroding at the rate of 80 centimetres a year. A further 60,000 tonnes of silt poured into the bay along man-made drains to the north. Mr Newton said some earlier plantings had been pulled out by “misguided individuals” who did not realise the important ecological role of mangroves “preserving and building up the foreshores by stopping the erosion, by providing a nursery for young fish. Without young fish there would be no recreational fishing and “no fish for the penguins to eat so consequently no tourism industry on Phillip Island”.
SURVEYS to collect information about the physical characteristics of land and seabed around the proposed expanded Port of Hastings will end the end of August. The geotechnical and geophysical survey programs began in December and were carried out to give the Port of Hastings Development Authority a better understanding of the local coastal and marine environments. The authority’s CEO Mike Lean said the information obtained from the surveys will be used to “better inform the next phase of feasibility planning for the container expansion project and contribute to a comprehensive knowledge base that the authority is developing in the areas of interest within Western Port for the container expansion project”. He said terrestrial samples were collected using a variety of methods including taking borehole samples, ground probes and digging test pits. The terrestrial investigation locations were selected on the advice of a qualified botanist to minimise disruption to native vegetation. Marine geotechnical surveys have involved taking samples and along with the marine geophysical surveys focussed on the northern part of the port area, the North Arm Channel, the Anchorage and Western Channel. Port of Hastings Development Authority’s CEO Mike Lean said that
these surveys were providing up to date information on the seabed conditions in Western Port’s existing shipping channels and port areas. This level of detail has not previously existed. Mr Lean said there were still a small number of marine sites to be completed, including three in the anchorage off Cowes, over the coming weeks, weather permitting. As part of ongoing safety requirements, recreational fishermen and boaters in the area are asked to keep 100 metres from the jack-up barge being used to carry out the geotechnical survey and to seek the harbourmaster’s directions at all times. The authority says the first stage of the expanded port will include a terminal capable of handling three million containers a year. Environmental and planning studies are exoected to begin soon following the mid-April appointment of six “consultant teams”. The contracted companies inlcude AECOM + GHD Joint Venture; Haskoning Australia; URS Australia; KPMG; and Corrs Chambers Westgarth. Ports Minister David Hodgett said the “container expansion” was a government priority. The Labor Opposition has said that if elected in November it will look at alternative sites within Port Phillip.

On track to access other beach areas A NEW access track being built at Point Leo will make it easier for wheelchairs to be taken in and out of the lifesaving club and onto the beach. The number of people in wheelchairs using the club increases dramatically whenever an event is held by the Mornington Peninsula branch of the Disabled Surfers Association. Work started on the new access track on Saturday, with members of the DSA and volunteers from local businesses which have donated materials and equipment. The DSA is confident the project will come in under budget, allowing a grant from Mornington Peninsula Shire to also be used to improve other points of access for the disabled on the foreshore. “The current access track should be completed by the end of July and at this stage we will see the completion of what we hope will be the first
stage of complete beach access,” DSAMP committee member Joe Hart said. “The access track to Point Leo foreshore is part of the DSAMP in conjunction with the Point Leo Foreshore Committee and the Point Leo Surf Lifesaving plans to develop the area into a disability precinct.” Improvements will be made to the nearby toilet block, car park and provision made for all terrain wheelchairs. “This track ending near the lifesaving club entrance, even though not giving complete access to the beach, is just the first stage,” Mr Hart said. Companies donating towards the project include LBK Driveways and Design Construction and Asphalting; Maw Civil; Everist Timber; Barrell Concreting; Hillview Quarries; Holcim Australia; Fulton Hogan; GP Hire Rosebud, Point Leo Lifesaving Club; and Pt Leo Foreshore Committee.
State sets out to Engage the young THE state government’s $12 million Engage program will provide money for organisations and councils to establish volunteering and mentoring programs, and projects that boost real-life skills and connect young people to further education, training or careers. MP for Hastings Neale Burgess said community and government groups in the Langwarrin area could apply for grants of up to $150,000 to help young people build skills needed for life after school. “The program is another example of this government’s commitment to providing young people with more opportunities to become involved in their communities,” Mr Burgess said. Minister for Youth Affairs Ryan Smith encour-
ages organisations to reach out to young people and work with them to develop innovative projects that could be eligible for an Engage grant. The program will provide community organisations and local governments with the practical resources they need to listen, respond and create opportunities for young Victorians so that they can fulfil their potential, Mr Smith said. Since 2012 more than 100,000 young Victorians have been involved in Engage programs. They are part of the government’s Youth Statement, Engage, Involve, Create that outlines its vision for young Victorians. Applications close on Friday 1 August.

THE Australian Taxation Office has warned investors not to be fooled by legitimate-looking tax avoidance schemes. ATO deputy commissioner Tim Dyce said illegal schemes are usually designed to appear legitimate, even to experienced investors, but there are telltale signs you can look out for. “Tax avoidance schemes aren’t always the ‘too good to be true’ types. They can be more sophisticated than many people realise,” Mr Dyce said. In particular, Mr Dyce advised people to watch out for complex structures and unusual financing arrangements such as round robin financing and non-recourse loans. “If the main purpose of the arrangement is to reduce your assessable income by claiming deductions you are not entitled to, without any real investment, it is likely to be a scheme.” In one case, promoters offered a ‘mortgage
management plan’ promising to assist investors in repaying their home loan sooner. The scheme involved using the equity in their home to get additional loans for the purpose of claiming investment deductions equivalent to home loan interest payments. It’s not just the design of the arrangement you have to look out for, but also what the promoter is promising and asking from you in return. “We often see promoters of illegal arrangements guaranteeing that their product is ‘no risk’. They’ll also encourage you to keep the arrangement a secret or discourage you from seeking independent advice,” Mr Dyce said. The ATO encourages anyone unsure about a tax investment they have been offered to seek a second opinion from an independent and trusted tax professional. “At the end of the day, when it all goes wrong, it will be you and not just the promoter, who will

They may seek to persuade you by claiming the adviser has specific knowledge about the arrangement and the promised tax benefits. Ask you to maintain secrecy to protect the arrangement from rival firms. Discourage you from obtaining independent advice. Do not have a product disclosure statement or prospectus for the product.

<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Superb style for today and tomorrow PROUDLY set in sought-after Somers - one of the true quintessential peninsula towns that embody the seachange lifestyle - this contemporary beauty is a must for any family seeking the finer things in life. Enjoying a wonderful setting amongst landscaped gardens on a substantial 3018-square metre block, this spacious home immediately welcomes you with a wide, full-length timber deck. The interior has been recently updated with a wide entry foyer highlighted by polished timber floors which continue on to a formal dining room which accesses a second timber deck at the rear. To one side of the dining area is a formal lounge that also opens out to the deck, and to the other, is a family room. Incorporated into this space is a stylish timber kitchen complete with wall-oven and a dishwasher, there is a charming casual meals alcove with a bay window, and a lounge area. The covered deck at the rear is an entertainerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s delight with mains gas plumbed in for a barbecue, and there is a great outlook to the solar heated in-ground swimming pool. For the growing family, there are four fantastic bedrooms; three have built-in robes and share the sparkling main bathroom, and the larger main bedroom has an ensuite and walk-in robe. A separate study across the hall from the master bedroom could be a fifth bedroom if required. There is one really special feature here that is sure to endear this home to many. Through a secret panel - reminiscent of a 1920s speakeasy - is a wonderfully rustic wine cellar and bar with brick feature wall and warm timber panelling. Practical features are not forgotten either with gas ducted heating throughout, and serving the grounds is a 20,000-litre rain water tank. In addition to the double garage up alongside the home are some garden sheds, and you can park the boat or caravan here also. The serenity of this enchanting coastal town beckons you.

A model approach to surfing Keith Platt keith@baysidenews.com.au IF Georgia Fish’s day isn’t filled with cutbacks, re-entries, bottom turns and tubes, she might work on concocting a healthy recipe or helping disadvantaged children. For the uninitiated, the first part of describing Fish’s day might sound a bit bizarre, but there is no explanation needed for surfers. Cutbacks, re-entries, bottom turns and tubes are all point-scoring manoeuvres on a wave. Put the word “radical” in front of each and it gains more points. The 21-year-old from Flinders is part of a growing band of women surfers competing on the world circuit. After last month’s contest at Los Cabos, Mexico, Fish is currently ranked 18th in the qualification series to join the World Championship Tour. On 4 August she leaves Australia for a month to compete in the series’ last three contests: Oceanside in Los Angeles, Hossegor, France and Pantin, Spain. High rankings could ensure Fish a place in next year’s WCT. “Having a quarter final finish at Manly and Peru this year was a great start and I am working hard to try and back that up in the last three events,” Fish said. “I’d love to qualify for the world tour but am trying not to make it my only goal. “It's been an amazing journey with lots of ups and downs. It's a tough
Wave break: Georgia Fish appreciates the lifestyle and opportunities being thrown her way by waves that break around the world.
sport for the girls given that there is not much prize money or sponsorship opportunities,” Fish said on Monday from her training at Lennox head in northern New South Wales. “The difference between training in Lennox and home is that you have so much more motivation to surf and train in the warmer environment. “Although surfing both areas is important, as they have different challenges with the environment which help me to become a more experienced surfer. “My aims are to progress my surfing to the most dynamic, progressive and confident stage that I can. “I think having that real self-belief that you are good enough to compete
at this level has a huge impact on performance.” Fish is under no illusion about the difficulty of climbing to the top of her field. “The depth of field in the women’s is amazing now and there are only a few spots that come up each year,” she says. “I will be happy if I can continue to progress my surfing to reach my highest potential, while utilising the exposure I get to help giving back to others.” As well as modelling for and helping promote her sponsors (Balin and Ozmosis) Fish is studying Integrative Nutrition online and runs a “clean eating” page “consciouscreations” where
she posts recipes and tips for healthy eating. She also promotes the Choclo Project run by a company that donates a set percentage of its sales to help disadvantaged children. “I manage the social media and modelling for Ethical Creations - I donate my time to that because it has been set up to help children's projects – but apart from that, while the season is on, my full focus is to surf as much as possible in as many differing conditions and to and stay fit and strong.” In one of her posts Fish describes concocting fulfilling salad to replace ones that “realistically a rabbit would only be satisfied after eating”. “For me, creating a salad for dinner
is one of my favourite meals and creations. I love how versatile it can be. In my world, salad can involve grains, meat, veggies, fruits, nuts, super foods, herbs, spices, cheeses and basically anything I feel like throwing in. “I thought I’d do a post on how simple it is to take your salad from being a rabbit’s dinner to a man’s meal.” Away from the tour spotlight and pressure Fish lists her favourite breaks as Quarantine, near Portsea, and “a secret surf spot” in East Timor. “I’m lucky that my surfing takes me to so many beautiful and amazing places in the world and, if I can surf these destinations while giving back to the community, I’ll be extremely satisfied.” 1139004-PB24-14

Art that inspires confidence A FRANKSTON South art teacher aims to “inspire and create confidence in children and encourage them to be artistically adventurous in a non-competitive environment”. Su Fishpool – known for her quirky sense of humour as well as her fine art skills – has over the past 20 years shared that humour with thousands of students who have honed their art skills in a supportive environment. She teaches students up to VCE level Monday to Thursday from 4-6pm at the Peninsula Arts Society in Overport Rd. “The benefits of art include learning self-disci-
pline, concentration, confidence and cooperation along with a sense of fun and personal satisfaction.” Ms Fishpool says learning art also helps other subjects. “Art skills help other areas of learning as they facilitate connections between eye, hand and cognitive development. “The lessons are non-competitive and not age graded, so each student works at their own level.” To enrol leave a message at the Peninsula Arts Society on 9775 2640.

All ages singing their way to London with one voice SOMEONE wise once said that choirs are the men's sheds of singing, where men can get together in friendship and put their hearts and souls into music. The adage rings true for Frankston’s own Australian Welsh Male choir, which attracts men of all ages from many walks of life. Pictured right are Bernie Rumble, Glyn Thomas and Tony Dickinson, the three founding members of the 40-year-old choir, with Craig Chambers and Kristian Kupsch, who, at 42, are its youngest members. The "Three Amigos" as they are affectionately known, are each holding a red glass dragon, made in Gippsland, and sourced from an expatriate Welshman who runs a boutique glassworks. The plinths were made by members of the choir. Glyn, at 92, is an active member of the choir and Craig and Kristian, both with disabilities, are also active and have appeared with the choir at the Sydney Opera House and the Royal Albert Hall in London. Next May the choir will once again sing in the 1000 Welsh Male concert at London’s Royal Albert Hall, making it the only international choir to be invited to this prestigious event. Touring success is not unusual for the choir which was formed by a
group of expatriate Welshmen at the Pines Soccer Club in 1973 to sing Christmas carols. It has progressed since then into a prestigious choir singing concerts here and around the world. In 1983 the choir was invited to join the Association of Welsh Choirs making it, at the time, the only choir outside Wales to be accorded that honour. The following year it toured the UK and sang at the Royal Albert Hall with the 1000 Voice Festival of Choirs. The choristers repeated this tour in 1988, 2000, 2004 and 2012. Tours have been made to Tasmania and New Zealand to raise money for charities. Fund raising has been a major aim of this choir and thousands have been raised for charities as well as entertaining hundreds of concert goers. The choir practises at the Baxter Village Chapel in Robinsons Rd on Monday nights, and would welcome any man who wants to sing and enjoy the company and the enjoyment of singing and helping others on the way. The choir is not for profit and self-funded. Corporate sponsorship is welcomed to ease the financial burden on individual choristers. If you can help email the secretary at awmcsecretary@gmail.com
Taiwanese songsters heading to Frankston A BUNUN indigenous troupe of songsters from Taiwan will wear traditional dress and sing traditional songs at Frankston in September. They will be in Australia for 10 days at the invitation of the mayor of Frankston, Cr Darrel Taylor, and the Australian Welsh Male Choir, which has been based at Frankston for the past 40 years. The Bunun are a mountain people from southern Taiwan one of 14 indigenous tribes numbering half a million among Taiwan’s 23 million. The troupe will perform at the Uniting Church in High St, Frankston, as well as at Ringwood, Beaumaris and Wangaratta. The male choir will share the concert program at Frankston on Sunday 14 September at 2.30pm. Members of the Bunun group are senior high school or university students from the Bunun Cultural and Educational Foundation - an outreach program associated with the Presbyterian church in Taiwan which is a partner church of the Uniting Church. “Taiwan is 96 per cent Buddhist and four per cent Christian, but the indigenous population has embraced the Christian faith with great enthusiasm,” said organiser Arthur Poole, who has been involved with the Bunun community for 25 years and has visited and worked with them on five occasions. “These tribal people are, like many indigenous populations around the world, open to exploitation, abuse and discrimination. Many suffer from alcoholism and domestic violence. “We warmly welcome these young people for whom this cross cultural experience will help them and us to a greater understanding of our very different cultures.”

Q PODIATRY
Keep on your toes Are you one of those people, who kick off your shoes under the desk, squeeze them back on at lunchtime? Can’t wait to get home from work, so you can put your feet up. Or perhaps you miss out on weekend activities because your feet hurt. If you are, you are among the majority of adults who suffer from some form of foot pathology. As age increases so does the incidence of foot problems. This is because no other part of our body is placed under the same severe strain as our feet. One quarter of all the bones in our body are in the feet. So for our feet to function correctly all bones, muscles, tendons and ligaments must be in their proper place in order to work harmoniously together, if this is not the case, foot problems may occur. Our feet have been designed to carry us over 100,000 kilometers in a lifetime, and to date no replacement for them has been found. Some foot problems may be avoided by taking good care of your feet. Don’t leave it until you are crippled with pain to do something about your feet.
Conservative treatment may be as little as a change in activity, change to footwear, followed by prescription orthotics, and in some persistent pain cases we now offer Prolotherapy. Podiatric Prolotherapy is an injection technique that seeks to stimulate the production of growth factors which triggers an LQÁDPPDWRU\ UHVSRQVH DQG QHZ collagen results; strengthening and eventually shortening ligaments, restoring effective ligament function, thereby reducing pain and complete healing in most cases. Feet that ache and hurt cause you to miss out on life. If you have any queries about your suitability for Prolotherapy please call 03 9766 3253, to make an appointment for a check up.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Charges of rough play between Hastings and Somerville Compiled by Melissa McCullough OWING to the inclement weather, the meeting to establish a gun club at Somerville, to have been held on Tuesday evening last, was postponed. It will now be held on Monday evening next at the Hotel Somerville. *** AT the meeting of the Mornington shire council held on Thursday, tenders for construction of 3 1/2 miles of the Point Nepean road were considered, and that of Messrs Allnutt and Baker, £4255 2s, was accepted. The council’s day man, Mr Cexhell, was appointed clerk of works. *** THERE has been paid into the taxation office as duty in respect of the estate of John Cleeland, the sum of £91,034. This represents duty on £89,536 realty and £1498 personally left by deceased. *** AT the last meeting of the Frankston and Hastings shire council, Cr Keast moved, according to notice, that a pound be established at Somerville. Cr Macray seconded the motion proforma, but it was ultimately decided that Crs Keast and Murray be a committee to go into the matter, and report at next meeting. *** IT is announced by cable that Miss Dorothea Wollaston, third daughter of Sir Harry Wollason, formerly Comptroller-General of Customs in Australia, was married this week to M. Georges Ferrand, a Frenchman, engaged in commercial matters. The ceremony took place in the Church of Our Lady
of Victoria, at Kensington. Captain R. M. Collins and other Australians were among the guests. *** THE quarterly meeting of the Frankston Methodist Circuit was held at Langwarrin on the 1st inst. the minister (the Rev R. Jackson) presiding. A slight increase of membership was reported, and the finances were well maintained, a small credit balance showing. Regret was expressed at the enforced absence of the senior circuit steward, Mr A. E. Gault, through illness, and a resolution passed expressive of regret at his serious illness and thanks for past lengthy and untiring services. *** THE following resolution was also passed, and a copy ordered to be sent to the State Premier, “That this quarterly meetings responsibility is to express its opinion that the proposal to introduce into the State School curriculum the art of boxing amongst boys is a step in the wrong direction, and will have the effect of lowering the moral tone of the boys in particular and the community in general; and further, that the school curriculum is sufficiently full as at present constituted therefore we express the hope that the proposal be not further considered, nor any attempt made to carry it into effect.” A deal of business of a routine character was transacted, after which a splendid tea was partaken of, provided by the ladies of Langwarrin church, for which hearty thanks was given. The remainder of the evening was spent in a meeting of a devotional character, and was much enjoyed by those present. ***
DESPITE the somewhat inclement weather, the annual ball in connection with the lodge, held on Wednesday evening, was an unqualified success. There was a splendid attendance, the dancing spade being taxed to the utmost, while a good number of spectators monopolised the stage. Gabriel’s band provided splendid music, and Mr Lee Devlin, as M.C., kept things going
THE proposed meeting for the purpose of forming a gun club at Somerville has been postponed until Monday evening next, July 13th. A good attendance requested.
with a swing till the wee sma’ hours. During an interval a tasty supper was served, and in this direction also there was nothing left to be desired. Mr Moore, who had charge of this department, is to be complimented for the excellent manner in which the catering was done. The ball committee
(Secretary H. Simcock, P.G., A. Sage, and V.G., F. Benson) worked hard to ensure the success of the lodge’s annual function, and the result of their efforts was very apparent on Wednesday evening. All the arrangements for the successful carrying out of the ball were complete in every detail, there being nothing wanting that could add to the enjoyableness of the evening. Mr John Dyke rendered valuable assistance to the committee. A special word of praise is due to Mrs G. Shepherd, for the beautiful way in which she carried out the decorations of the hall. The scheme was carried out with paper carnations, the colors of the officers of the lodge predominating, and the effect was charming. The best thanks of the lodge are due this lady for her work in this direction. *** TO THE EDITOR Sir, will you kindly grant me space once more in your valuable paper to reply to the letter written by “One who likes Justice.” It is with some regret I write again, for fear I should create the idea that I look upon the Hastings football team as a rough lot as a whole. I have known some of them for many years, and I am pleased to meet and shake hands with them either on their ground or ours. It was the wholesale charge that “One who likes Justice” made against the fairness of the Somerville team in his first letter that 1 took exception to. If he has watched them play he must know that there are as fair footballers in the Somerville team as ever kicked a ball, and when he said the team played the man and not the ball and could not take
a beating-well, it was that “that rose the dander of McCarty.” He says the Somerville player who got hit did not get as much as he deserved. I certainly don’t know what he did, so I do not know what he deserves. I have heard several tales of what he did, but he says he did nothing unfair. The umpire reported him, I believe, for rough play. I only quoted the incident in my letter to show1st: That the umpire was no’ the fairnst ever on the Peninsula; and 2nd: That some of the Hastings players were not so gentle and downhearted as “One who like Justice” would like the general public to believe. He also says “ if the delegates look to the safety of other players they will disqualify the Somerville player for life. I think this is a point for us to discuss, as I think the gentlemen who give their time as delegates are quite capable of carrying on the business of the association without any advice from us. He says I must look through the sixteenth part of an eye, and shut the other one. Well, that is a very small portion and I think even that is on a par with his common sense, far be it for me or anyone else to say through these columns when and where he was heard ealling out to “rough them up,” and then has not got sense enough to let us know who he is. I do not intend to write again on this subject, as I have had my say and am content to let the matter drop. T. W. WHITE. Somerville, 5/7/14. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 11 July 1914

Should Greg stay or should he go? By Stuart McCullough IT’S just not true. No matter how much you claim that a rose by any other name is just as sweet, if they were called ‘Stinkweed’, nobody would buy them on Valentine’s Day. If Shakespeare had named his key teenage protagonists ‘Darren’ and ‘Pauline’ instead of the more ear pleasing ‘Romeo’ and ‘Juliet’, one of his greatest plays would have long been forgotten. Ditto ‘Rambo’ for ‘Roger’. It wouldn’t matter a jot that Sly Stallone had biceps like Christmas hams, no one’s going to believe that a guy called ‘Roger’ could be a one-man killing machine. It’s simply not credible. Right or wrong, names matter. For many people, The Clash hold a dear place in their musical heart. But for all their success, by 1983 they were falling apart. This resulted in the sacking in Mick Jones who, aside from playing guitar, wrote a lot of the songs. When it comes to bands, sacking your chief songwriter is rarely a recipe for enduring success. Mick’s role was then replaced by, not one, but two guitarists. Nick Sheppard was recruited from a band called The Cortinas. Nick, without doubt, is a strong rock and roll kind of name even if the name of his former band was weighed down by its links to affordable sedans. Greg White, of no-fixed previous band, was the second choice. But there was a problem. Bass player Paul Simonon point blank refused to be in a band with someone called ‘Greg’. It’s fair to say that the recruiting methods of bands would not be consid-
ered best practice. There are few companies that I know of who enforce a ‘no Greg’ policy. Indeed, it’s hard to imagine anyone missing out on a job simply because of his or her name. That said, I’d probably have second thoughts about hiring someone called ‘Adolf’ or ‘Darth Vader’. Although if you go to the share fridge and find a yoghurt labelled, ‘Property of Darth Vader’, chances are you’d think twice before swiping it. The Clash would probably have welcomed Darth Vader with open arms. Not that he was ever a contender. The Artist Formerly Known as ‘Greg’ obligingly changed his name to ‘Vince’. Whether other names like ‘Adolf’ or ‘Darth’ were even considered has never been revealed. It seems
a strange kind of compromise to force on anyone. But whilst calling yourself ‘Vince’ might get a gig in the world’s biggest punk band, it doesn’t help you write a decent song. Without Mick Jones, The Clash suffered terribly. Releasing an album entitled Cut the Crap – which, had the band heeded their own advice, would have seen them release two sides of complete silence – it was perhaps inevitable that ‘The Clash’ should break up. Greg/Vince then left the music industry to work as a mini-cab driver. Life is full of little ironies. He played guitar with a guy who was in a band called The Cortinas and ended up driving one. Luckily, both ‘Greg’ and ‘Vince’ are acceptable names within the mini-cab industry.
Some names get all the glory. For example, certain handles feature in songs all the time while others never even get a look in. ‘Cathy’ is a popular choice – Cathy’s Clown by The Everly Brothers and You Am I, not to mention Kathy’s Song by Simon and Garfunkel. Having a ‘Jane’ song in your repertoire seems almost mandatory - there’s Song For Jainie by Tim Buckley, Sweet Jane by the Velvet Underground and Janie’s Got a Gun by Aerosmith. The Clash who, while objecting vociferously to ‘Greg’, had no problem at all with ‘Janie Jones’. Other repeat offenders include Valerie (The Monkees and Amy Winehouse/Mark Ronson) and, in a variety of forms, Sue (Wake Up Little Susie by the Everly Brothers and Runaround Sue by Dion and the Belmonts).
The wind cries ‘Mary’ and it’s also a boat called the ‘Proud Mary’. Some names get all the attention. Even slightly unusual names can often be lauded in song. Jolene by Dolly Parton, Layla by Eric Clapton and Me and You and a Dog Named Boo by Lobo to name but a few. For crying out loud, even ‘Bo Diddley’ gets multiple mentions (most notably in the song Bo Diddley written by Bo Diddley and performed by – you guessed it – Bo Diddley). And while there may only be one song dedicated to the name ‘Eloise’ it’s an absolute cracker. Performed by Barry Ryan – a name that would have seem him barred from The Clash – the film clip features Ryan on horseback riding along a windswept beach. It’s a pity for everyone that more video clips don’t feature singers on horseback. To the best of my knowledge, there are no songs featuring the name ‘Stuart’ in the title. This is for the best. That’s despite the fact that my name neatly rhymes with ‘do it’, ‘threw it’ and, perhaps most handily of all, ‘knew it’. Under no circumstances would I have been allowed to join The Clash. As for the name ‘Greg’, it has finally been rehabilitated. In the 1990s, Melbourne band TISM put out a song called Greg! The Stop Sign based on a grisly TAC commercial that caused me to give up driving entirely until 1997. The Clash could not fail to be moved. My only hope is that it gave the Artist Formerly known as Greg some comfort. He deserves as much. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Stonecats put squeeze on Pythons PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt PINES was brought back to earth with a thud after Frankston YCW strangled them for three of the four quarters to record a 57-point victory 2.9 (21) to 11.12 (78). It was the only Peninsula League game played on Saturday. Mornington and Mt Eliza and Chelsea and Edithvale played on Sunday. The remaining two games will be played next Saturday to conclude yet another split round. We are all very well aware that the strength of the Stonecats is the defensive unit, led by Byron and Anthony Barry. On Saturday at Eric Bell Reserve, the visitors restricted the home side to five behinds in the first half. Pines kicked their only two goals in the third quarter, courtesy of Chris Guganovic and Guy Hendry. Frankston YCW excitement machine Kyle Hutchison kicked more goals himself than the opposition. He finished with three majors. Anthony Barry found himself off the leash and forward of centre on a number of occasions, finishing with two goals while Ben Tellis also kicked multiple goals. Ash Eames played his best game for the season and seems to be well
over his hamstring tear while Ryley Hodson and Casey Radford were outstanding. Joel Brunn has been superb for the Pythons this season and was again on Saturday, while Beau Hendry and Shaun White worked really hard. It was the first game the Pythons have lost since coach Steve Ryan announced he was resigning from the position. The Pythons are already actively looking for replacements and some interesting conversations have already taken place. It is believed that two of Pines’ opponents on Saturday are on their priority list – the Barry cousins, Byron and Anthony. The Barrys were close to leaving last season, offered big deals to go elsewhere and coach. Frankston YCW coach Scott Mathers is doing a wonderful job with the team and he has them playing inspired football. Whilst it is believed there were teething problems initially, the Stonecats are now purring. Mathers said it was always going to take time for the list to get used to new ways of doing things. “We haven’t changed things too much. It’s been a winning formula but we have just tinkered,” Mathers said. “We’ve given some players some
Melee a distasteful scene OFFICIALS from Red Hill and Hastings Football Clubs need to have a good look at themselves after an on-field incident at half time on Saturday. A couple of small fights broke out just before the half time siren, before every player got involved once the siren had gone. There were a couple of disturbing things to be seen during these seven minutes of high testosterone and emotion. The first was that the trainers should not have gone anywhere near the melee. However, there were some white shirts sticking their noses into a place where they shouldn’t have been. Then, as the players had broken away and were happy to head back to the change rooms, leading officials from each club started to hurl abuse at one another as they walked from the
new roles and responsibilities and they seem to be enjoying the change.” The general consensus is that the change of coach has brought some new life into the club. For the Stonecats, it’s certainly making a difference. For the opposition, it’s something they wouldn’t want to be hearing. Inaccuracy in front of goal cost Edithvale-Aspendale a big win against neighbour Chelsea. The Eagles were always going to win the clash, however, it should have made a lot more from its 34 scoring shots to 32. Edithvale’s Matt Clark was clearly the best player on the ground, really making a statement after 18 months away from the game. The Gulls, who were never in the contest, were best served by Fia Tootoo. The Gulls would have lost by more than 72 points if he wasn’t on the park. The final score was 14.20 (104) to 5.2 (32). In the other Sunday game, Mornington turned the tables on Mt Eliza, smashing the home side 9.7 (61) to 2.13 (25). The Doggies were beaten by the Redlegs in the corresponding game in round one, however, were well in control on Sunday at Emil Masden Reserve.
field, right in front of spectators. Thankfully, the situation didn’t escalate and they all shared a sausage roll and cold beverage during the half time break. However, club people in positions of power should lead by example and leave what happens on the field, on the field.
Murray a few weeks away
CRIB POINT will be without Aaron Murray for a few weeks yet. Murray has only been training for the past week with the Pies and won’t be match fit for at least another three weeks you would expect. Murray is coming off a knee reconstruction he suffered two seasons ago. It was his second knee reconstruction. Murray crossed from his home club Somerville in controversial circumstances two weeks ago, joining former Eagle teammate and favourite son, Glenn Boyd. ‘Azza’ has been keeping himself fit and strong, competing in triathlons. He will be a wonderful acquisition for the Pies, who lost key forward Toron Petrie a fortnight ago.

Goals galore as Hillmen blitz Hastings NEPEAN LEAGUE
By Toe Punt A BLISTERING nine goal third quarter saw Red Hill continue on its merry way in Nepean League on Saturday against Hastings. The Hillmen trailed by 13 points at the major change after the home side dominated the quarter, booting six goals to five behinds. Taylor Stratton was giving his side plenty of drive from the half back line, Justin Berry and Josh Mulheron were working well through the middle and around the ground and Kane Stratton was given a little bit of licence in the back half. Steven Robb was also looking lively for the Blues and Dale Alanis and Steve Charalambous were getting their hands on the footy. It was a great, free flowing contest in the first half and it appeared the Blues had the upper hand. There was also plenty of feeling in the game also. A melee happened just before the half time siren and then flowed into the half time break. Officials from both sides, who should have known better, were also involved. Red Hill has been unrelenting in third quarters this season and kicking with the wind, many believed the pacy visitors could turn it on again. For the first 17 minutes, Hastings did a wonderful job restricting the Hillmen, despite them getting their noses in front.
However, what happened in the next 8-10 minutes was super impressive. Red Hill booted six unanswered goals in that space of time and blew Hastings off the park. Jarryd Douglas, who was clearly the difference between the sides, booted four goals in the third quarter and finished the afternoon with six. Why Hastings didn’t play a loose defender in front of him when he was clearly Red Hill’s only target was staggering. Robbie Clements, who was released from Frankston Dolphins, played onball and completely dominated. His class and ball use, despite the slippery conditions, were noticeable. Paul Wintle had the toughest task for the afternoon playing on Colin McVeigh. Wintle matched ‘Col’ in all aspects of the game and even showed the Blues’ star up a few times with his work at ground level. Benny Maguiness turned the clock back and dominated through the middle while the Dal Lago brothers, Marcus and Pete showed great leadership and composure. Jake Mitchell was also outstanding, his left foot hurting the Blues on many occasion throughout the match. Red Hill has certainly matured since losing to Rye in the last kick of the day. Hastings were always going to come back with the wind in the last quarter and they did, booting three goals in
three minutes to get within four goals. However, as the rain became heavier, so did the composure and lock down of Red Hill. The Hillmen got a number behind the footy, they slowed the tempo of the match and ensured that Hastings didn’t get their hand off the footy. The Hillmen robbed the Blues of the footy. When Douglas kicked his sixth of the match at the 20-minute mark, the game was done. Red Hill ran out comfortable 32-point winners in the end, 15.16 (106) to 10.14 (74). Whilst Hastings has plenty of injuries, Red Hill won without their leading goal kicker Jarryd Eames and running machines Luke Adams and Matt Hyden. Whilst there were some at the ground that believe Red Hill’s lack of height will cost them come finals time, their leg speed, pressure, workrate and ability to hit up a lead are first class. A 6.5’ ruckman who can fill a hole down back or rest forward would top the Hillmen off nicely. Rosebud moved inside the top five with a commanding 84-point win against Pearcedale at Olympic Park Oval. Inaccuracy in front of goal cost the Buds a three-figure winning margin, however, restricting the opposition to less than three goals did wonders for their percentage.
When percentage is going to be so important this season at the business end, Rosebud’s is very healthy at 136.74. Rye, who is in sixth place on the sale amount of wins (six), has a percentage of 103.88. Hastings is in seventh place, a further game back (five wins) but has a percentage of 122.21. Of those three clubs fighting it out for a place in the top five, Hastings has by far the easiest run home. Rosebud tall timber Ben Shultz and Ben Dwyer each booted three goals for the Buds while a further eight players contributed on the scoreboard. Tom Baker and Glenn Peterson continued their outstanding form. Chris Fortnam and Matty White were the best of the Panthers, while Trav Sauer worked hard. Frankston Bombers made it two wins on the trot, upsetting Rye by 15 points at Greg Beck Oval. In tight contest all afternoon, the Bombers led for the large majority of the afternoon to win 10.13 (73) to 8.10 (58). Jay Reynolds and Ryan Marks-Logan (three goals) were sensational for the winners while Ben Simmons and Sam Drake were also at their finest. Chris Gleeson worked tirelessly for the Demons up front and finished with four majors while Adam Kirkwood and Luke Semmel tried hard.
Crib Point had little trouble getting the four points against Devon Meadows, winning 16.18 (114) to 7.7 (49). The Pies started well with the win, kicking six goals to one in the first quarter and setting up the win. Glenn Boyd finished the day with four goals while Luke Herrington kicked three. Dean Warry and David Cook were outstanding. Alex Doria and Pat Boland were the best of Devon, while Steve McInnes was also very good with three goals. Leigh Poholke kicked six goals for Sorrento in their 12-goal win against Somerville. Just like the Magpies, the Sharks booted six goals to one in the opening term and set-up the 18.11 (119) to 6.10 (46) victory. Ben McCormack was again at his best for the Sharks in the back half, supported well by Chris Bagot, who is back at his best. Todd Hounsell also played arguably his best game for the Sorrento Football Club. Timmy Hirst and Jedd Sutton were the best of the Eagles. Anthony Bruhn booted eight goals and Cam Park five as Dromana booted 25.35 (185) to Tyabb’s 4.5 (29). The Tigers had 25 scoring shots in the first half and 23 scoring shots in the final quarter! Ash Souter and Rohan West were the best of the Yabbies.
Never in doubt: Red Hill got up over Hastings by 32 points after a nine-goal blitz in the third quarter got the Hillmen home and hosed. Pictures: Andrew Hurst
