Maternity workers answer code brown call Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au MORE healthcare workers will be deployed to Frankston Hospital this week in response to the state government’s “code brown” declaration.

The state government declared a code brown last month to help manage resources during the recent wave of COVID-19.

Frankston Council maternal and child health nurses have been deployed to Frankston Hospital and Monash Health, Clayton and Casey campuses for six weeks. They will help in hospital birthing suites and with the extended post natal care program.

While council workers are redeployed, its regular maternal and child health service will be interrupted.

Council says that temporary priority will be given to “infants aged 0-8 weeks and their mothers/caregivers, Aboriginal infants and children of all ages, and infants and children of all ages with additional needs or concerns, including those on the enhanced MCH program and those with COVID-19.”

Manager of family health support services at Frankston Council, Claire Benzie, said that her team is working

hard to keep disruptions to a minimum. “In addition to prioritising vulnerable families, please know we are still here to support you and there are many avenues for families who have concerns or questions while our usual capacity is limited,” she said.

“Caring for young families is a passion our staff share with many other healthcare providers in our community, who are struggling right now under

an overwhelming workload and difficult working conditions. We believe this common goal and this time spent working together will strengthen the ongoing relationships between our services and enhance future opportunities to collaborate — ultimately benefiting our community.”

Parents can call the 24/7 maternal and child health line on 13 22 29 for information and support.

Consortium chosen for hospital redevelopment THE Frankston Hospital redevelopment has moved forward another step.

A consortium has been chosen to enter exclusive negotiations with the state government to undertake the $605 million project.

The redevelopment will be a publicprivate partnership with a private consortium designing, constructing, financing, and maintaining the project for 25 years. Despite that, the Victorian Health Building Authority has stressed that the hospital will remain a public hospital.

The state government has announced that the Exemplar Health consortium has emerged from the tender process as the preferred bidder.

It is made up of Capella Capital as a sponsor and investor, Aware Super as an investor, Lendlease Building Contractors as a builder, and Honeywell Limited and Compass Group Healthcare Hospitality Services as facilities and maintenance managers.

All clinical healthcare services will be operated by Peninsula Health.

The redevelopment includes work on a new clinical services tower and main entrance, capacity for 120 more beds, new operating theatres, improved mental health and oncology services, new maternity, obstetrics, and paediatric wards, and a mental health, alcohol, and other drugs hub.

The VHBA says that construction is expected to start in the first half of 2022 and be complete in 2025. Peninsula Health is moving its COVID-19 testing clinic to accommodate for the start of construction. ​​Committee for Greater Frankston CEO Ginevra Hosking said she hopes that the project “will create 1700 jobs during construction and massively add to Frankston’s thriving health and education precinct when it is completed in 2025”.

“This year marks [Frankston Hospital’s] 80th anniversary and the community and generations of volunteers can be proud of raising the funds to build a 30-bed country hospital that has grown to serve a population the size of Canberra,” she said. “This has

been enhanced by the recent opening of the new academic and research building Ngarnga Centre where Peninsula Health and Monash University are training our next generation of doctors, nurses and allied health professionals.

“We hope to see plenty of Frankston and Carrum Downs businesses involved in the hospital project and its ongoing operations. We are keen to introduce innovative local companies to the state government and the preferred bidder. The committee congratulates

the state government, local MP Paul Edbrooke and Peninsula Health for their unrelenting determination in driving the project forward and overcoming the hurdles of pandemic restrictions.”

Diminished planning power worries councillors Brodie Cowburn brodie@baysidenews.com.au FRANKSTON Council will write to state government MPs flagging concerns that new planning amendments will reduce council’s planning power.

Councillors agreed that “proposed changes may have major implications as they would reduce council and community input into process and decision

making. In particular, the potential to remove council as the planning authority for priority areas, specifically the Frankston Metropolitan Activity Centre.”

An example of an amendment made last year which concerns council is Amendment VC187. Council officers wrote that the change made “the minister for energy, environment, and climate change (DELWP) responsible for assessment and decision making for the development of 10 or more

dwellings and apartments” with “no council or community involvement in the consideration and decision making process for applications that meet these requirements.”

Councillors unanimously agreed at their most recent meeting to write to the planning minister, shadow planning minister, and Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke to outline their worries.

Councillors who spoke in favour of the move also urged residents to write to their local MP about it.

Frankston MP Paul Edbrooke was contacted for comment.

Council officers also wrote that a proposed change “to be tabled in Parliament in early 2022 which would see the minister for planning being able to declare priority precincts and projects” would “have significant implications for council. Of particular concern is the development of the FMAC SP which would meet the definition of a priority project and council would be relegated to the role of key stakeholder

and a submitter.”

Frankston councillor Sue Baker said at a recent public meeting that council staff are monitoring the situation “very closely”. “We can assure residents we are doing everything we can do, even though it is out of our hands to a greater extent,” she said.

Cr Kris Bolam said that the “legislation before us needs to be properly shopped and consulted and the local government sector needs to be engaged, and that’s what the council is asking for.”

Grant program from water provider opens GRANTS of up to $10,000 are available through the South East Water 2022 community grants program.

Food for Change CEO and founder Matt Donavon said that the grants helped fund a drip irrigation system to grow fruit, vegetables and herbs for donation. “We’re very grateful to have received the grant and the irrigation has already helped us to plant fruit trees which will

help in our efforts towards providing much needed food relief to the local community,” he said.

Jubilee Park project ‘accelerated’ AN extra $8 million will be spent this financial year on the Jubilee Park redevelopment.

The funding changes were approved during Frankston Council’s mid-year budget review.

The mayor Nathan Conroy says the project has been “accelerated” after the conclusion of the tender process.

“The project has resulted in an accelerated delivery program, with civil works for the carpark now being undertaken concurrently with foundation and structural works for the pavilion,” he said. “This has resulted in an increase of forecast expenditure in the current financial year, from $5.012 million to $13.292 million.

This is a cash flow adjustment during a multiyear major project.

“As indicated, the total project cost and funding breakdown remains unchanged. There is still financial support from state government, federal government, and Cricket Victoria/ Australia.”

As a result, the project could be finished months ahead of schedule. Cr Conroy said “the eastern carpark is scheduled for completion in March 2022 and will then be utilised by the Frankston District Netball Association. Completion of the stadium, southern car park, including main entry, and external landscape integration works is anticipated for March 2023.” The project was initially scheduled for completion in June 2023.

The redevelopment is budgeted to cost $35.32 million in total, with more than $20.5 million coming from Frankston ratepayers. The state government has allocated $10,000,000 to works, the federal government $4,560,000, and Cricket Victoria/Cricket Australia $200,000.

Aquatic centre claims two awards PENINSULA Aquatic Recreation Centre was a big winner at the Aquatics and Recreation Victoria awards this year.

The Frankston pool and gym was named the health club of the year.

PARC employee Pru Drago also won big on the night, taking home the award for personal trainer of the year.

Award winner Pru Drago helps run PARC’s eight week challenge and small group personal training membership. She ran online programs during the COVID-19 pandemic.

Ms Drago said it was an “honour”

to win the award. “In what was a really challenging year for us all to be recognised and take out these awards is so incredible,” she said.

Peninsula Leisure CEO Katherine Thom said “we are so honoured and excited to be recognised as the state’s best health club here at PARC. This award is testament to the tireless hours put in by our staff and I would like to thank the entire Peninsula Leisure team for their stewardship of this amazing facility.

More restaurants set up outside MORE restaurants have opened outdoor dining spaces in Frankston.

Grants from the state government’s outdoor dining program and from the Frankston Revitalisation Board have been helping businesses set up shop outside.

Council has also been running a campaign, Do It Outdoors 2.0, to incentivize and encourage restaurants to set up outdoor dining.

One restaurant that has recently opened their outdoor dining area to patrons is Gapfed. Its owner Greg Chronopoulis said “I feel like I am on a Greek Island somewhere, it’s just beautiful and our customers are loving it.”

Opposition pledges cash for new school programs THE federal opposition will spend $440 million on upgrades and programs at schools to help kids recover from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic if it wins the election.

Dunkley MP Peta Murphy said last week that the funding would be used on better ventilation, building upgrades, and mental health support.

“The past two years have been tough for families in Dunkley. Kids have missed out on activities and experiences, and many are struggling with their mental wellbeing,” Ms Murphy said. “Labor doesn’t want any Australian child held back because of the pandemic. Our plan will help make sure our schools are safe places for kids to learn and our investment in mental health and school upgrades will make sure every kid can get back on track and benefit from a world class education.”

An election date has not yet been confirmed, but it is expected to be around May.

THE owners of properties across the Mornington Peninsula impacted by recent heavy rains are demanding Mornington Peninsula Shire Council urgently improve storm water drainage.

While storm water drainage comes under complex shared responsibility rules, where councils are responsible for the water between the discharge point, kerb and channel, and the landowner is responsible for their own pipes and drains, residents are not letting the council off the hook.

One resident who did not wish to be identified, said her home was flooded and left uninhabitable after storms on 7 January.

The woman said it was clear from the extent of the flooding and the number of homes impacted that the shire’s drainage infrastructure was inadequate and that calls to the council for help are falling on deaf ears.

“I have called the council several times to resolve drainage issues that are their responsibility, but had not heard back one week later,” she said.

“We are now under threat of more rain, and it’s quite frightening.

“We have contacted them but heard absolutely nothing.’’

Briars Ward councillor Steve Holland said the council had inherited a “flooding problem”, particularly in Mount Eliza and was looking at ways

Plant Sale $4.95 LEIGHTON GREEN SCREEN

to resolve the issue.

“I've had a flurry of phone calls and emails after the recent downpour with reports of major flooding events, particularly in and around the Ranelagh Estate, in Mount Eliza, where drainage problems have been longstanding for many years,” he said.

“The cause of any flooding will be investigated and if any immediate works can take place to clear blockages or increase capacity we will endeavour to do so.

“As a councillor, I am acutely aware of legacy drainage concerns and the need to prioritise these works.’’

Cr Holland said he had spoken to many residents impacted by the flooding and is encouraging people to make submissions to the 2022-23 budget. ‘’We have placed drainage projects on our default listing as one of the items residents can select o prioritise."

Beach cleaning MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council is seeking feedback on a beach-cleaning trial on three popular beaches. Since last September, beaches at Rye front beach (east of the rock groyne to Shirlow Avenue), South Beach, Mount Martha and Moondah Beach, Mount Eliza have been cleaned by hand with the help of volunteer coastal advisory groups and beach patrol groups.

Net loss for family cast from history Liz Bell liz@baysidenews.com.au COMMERCIAL fisherman Neville Hutchins is fast approaching his 70th birthday, but retirement is not in his sights despite facing the loss of his netting licence in March.

He is so entrenched is his routine of throwing out the nets every evening at dusk and offering his catch for sale at Fisherman’s Beach, Mornington that he couldn’t contemplate taking the six-figure payout – rumoured to be at least $500,000 - offered when the state government began its phase out of commercial net fishing in 2018.

Instead, he stayed on to do what he loves and knows best, well aware that the licence buy-back would be enforced in 2022 and only a portion of the original compensation amount would be available.

“It was never about the money. I just wanted to keep doing what I have always done, and what my family has done before me,” Mr Hutchins said.

He has met thousands of people over the years on the beach and is regarded as something of a local icon, even experiencing a brief moment of international fame when a mural of his image gained more attention than intended (“Mural covered up over ‘copy’ claims” The Times 11/1/22).

“Some of my locals came down just before Christmas to tell me there was a mural of me painted in Main Street, and then a bit later people came down and told me it had been mysteriously removed,” he said.

“Apparently a guy overseas saw

NEVILLE Hutchins is about to relinquish his commercial fishing nets (and licence to fish Port Phillip) but says he will still be providing meals by catching his quarry on line. Pictures: Yanni it online and said it was pretty much a copy of another artist’s painting in Germany but with my face, so the council had to cover it over,” he said.

“Yeah, it was a certainly strange, not what anyone expected – all I knew was someone took a picture of me for a mural and then, as quickly as it appeared on the wall, it was gone.”

Mural controversies aside, Port Phillip and its riches are the topics that Hutchins knows best. He comes from a long line of fishers, with the first Hutchins fishermen navigating the bay in the 1800s.

Like his father Bill, and his grandfather Thomas before that, Hutchins can spot the fish just by looking out from

the cliffs and believes sustainability of the industry was never in doubt.

“I’ve been coming here with my parents since I was a baby, when mum would put me in a fish box covered with a blanket on the beach while she helped dad,” he said.

“I grew up here, Port Phillip was our paddock, and I know there are

plenty of fish out there.”

In the 1980s Hutchins bought his own licence and for years worked with his brother Dalton, together selling about 20 tonne of fresh fish annually, made up of schnapper, whiting, salmon, garfish and mullet.

But the fate of net fishing was sealed in 2015 when the Labor government introduced legislation for the buy-back of licences as a way to benefit the environment and recreational fishers.

Since then, most of the 43 access licences have been bought back, and this year only about eight will remain with the netting entitlements removed.

While it won’t be the end of the show for Mr Hutchins, who will still have a line fishing licence and will continue to sell from the heritage-listed hut that is now a part of the beach landscape, his months of operation and catch size will be significantly reduced.

“Well, it’s a change, but it’s not the end, I’ll be fishing as long as I can… it might mean I have an eight-month holiday every year, but I’ll still be here in some way,” he said.

Mr Hutchins is pessimistic about what the loss of netting rights will mean for customers who want locally caught, fresh fish, but says he is proud to continue to play a small part in the supply-and-demand equation.

“It’s going to be harder to get fresh fish that’s been caught here in Port Phillip, for sure, there just aren’t many of us left,” he said. ‘’But hopefully I’ll still be here for a few more years.”

Inquiry needed into adoption of amended rules Mornington Peninsula Shire’s CEO John Baker left me astounded when he stated that "there is no evidence to suggest that either myself or Ms [Amanda] Sapolu, the shire’s governance officer, acted inappropriately” (“Shire CEO ‘concerned’ over ratepayer group’s allegations” Letters 25/1/22).

It was these very officers who assisted a bloc of six councillors by providing a detailed draft set of proposed amendments to council’s advertised meeting procedure rules.

And did so without informing the other five councillors.

This appalling amendment process was initiated by then mayor Cr Despi O’Connor with council officers and after the meetings procedure rules had already been debated and approved by council to be placed on public exhibition – and did not include these proposed amendments.

The community was shut out of commenting on these proposed amendments in a statutory and policy requirement of community engagement.

A train of emails obtained under Freedom of Information has revealed much, but not all, of the truth of the matter.

On 12 August, Ms Sapolu emailed Mr Baker detailing “wording for the amendments” when the proposed meeting procedure rules came up for adoption by council at its 24 August meeting.

On 18 August, Mr Baker forwarded this email

to Cr O’Connor. She immediately circulated the proposed amendments among six councillors “I knew may be supportive” (“‘No support’ councillors left out of email loop” The News 27/10/21.

Cr Anthony Marsh then actively assisted in some further drafting in an exchange of emails with the six “supportive” councillors before forwarding a final draft to Ms Sapolu immediately prior to the council pre meet/briefing on 24 August. Cr O’Connor requested deputy mayor Cr Sarah Race to introduce the proposed amendments during the course of the 24 August council meeting.

The six “supportive” councillors and council officers did not inform the other five councillors of the proposed amendments, nor was the matter brought up at the council pre-meet/briefing.

Cr Race dutifully introduced and moved the proposed amendments without prior notice to all councillors and did so in the course of the debate on the adoption of the advertised procedural rules.

Then followed the circus of Cr Race attempting to explain to councillors and the community her domestic COVID problems in not telling all councillors of her intention to move amendments to the advertised proposed procedural rules.

To me, her explanation lacked all credibility.

We now know from the trail of emails that she

Bush ‘sacrificed’ for housing The proposed rezoning of bushland in Dromana to allow for a 250-lot subdivision once again throws into question the long-term viability of so-called “sustainable development” (“Alarm over Dromana subdivision rules” The News 1/2/22). Every time such a proposal is put forward in response to “predicted population and housing growth” another piece of remnant bush is sacrificed under the cloak of “sustainable outcomes, resilience … key policies and strategies” and other jargon that supposedly will “protect the special values and character of the peninsula”.

Of course, this ongoing submission to the god of endless growth at the expense of the natural environment is fundamentally unsustainable.

Constantly nibbling “just a little bit more” away from our bushland will ultimately leave little for human amenity, biodiversity and habitat for increasingly threatened native species. And then what?

It is time to seriously question the wisdom of the “growth” mantra and embark on a pathway of genuine sustainability.

Henk van Leeuwen, Mount Martha

Unintended offence Sometimes fences are not just fences. They can just sometimes represent values above individual property rights.

Planning decisions can last forever and represent and shape the future of where we live.

Boundary fences on or next to beaches may one day prevent access along and to beaches. Is this the future we wish to allow to happen?

The state government has ignored the consequences of rising sea levels affecting our access to beaches, perhaps because it is gradual and not seen as a priority.

Fences are not always allowed, especially front fences in some suburbs and subdivisions, so there are plenty of precedents.

My defeated motion at the last Mornington Peninsula Shire Council meeting to keep a fence off Balnarring Beach was based on net community benefit, including recreational values, landscape values and planning for sea level rise in this environmentally sensitive foreshore area; already water levels reach the property boundaries occasionally along this section of beach and deter walkers (“Shire makes ‘land grab’ list” The News 18/1/22).

The background is: The previous road was washed away in storms in the 1960s and the road reserve is still theoretically in place but acts as part of the beach.

Property boundaries go to the edge of the old road reserve and also look like part of the beach and foreshore.

Most properties on this stretch have front

fences set back to an old sea wall alignment rather than put fences out to their legal boundary on the sand-dunes.

The compromise decision by council to alter the fence permit application so that the proposed fence is set back some metres from the actual property boundary is still a brave and forwardthinking outcome that is an issue for us all to think about.

Cr David Gill, Red Hill Ward

Problem is with roads Apparently Cr David Gill is in a rage over speeding cars (“Rage over govt inaction over speeding cars” The News 25/1/22).

This is an inaccurate headline as he is in a rage over speed limits, not speeding drivers.

Open country roads in good condition are perfectly safe at 100kph for undistracted competent drivers.

I have no problem with reduced limits where there are high use intersections or tourist stopping points, but to reduce the limit on a whole stretch of road because of one risk spot is a disservice to responsible motorists.

The main safety issue with roads on the Mornington Peninsula is that they are in a very poor state of repair.

Cr Gill could improve road safety dramatically by directing ratepayers’ money towards repairing the many potholes, patches, ragged road edges, poor markings and obscured signage under Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s jurisdiction.

He should also take up this issue with VicRoads, on behalf of ratepayers, as many of the roads that it is responsible for on the peninsular are also in poor condition.

Peter Shearman, Bittern

Better buses As a long-time advocate for improved bus access for the many Mount Martha residents in the Hearn and Park roads areas I would like to thank everyone who supported the extension of the route from Somerset Crescent via Forest Drive and Hearn Road, Mount Martha, enabling all age groups the ability to utilise public transport for shopping, work and school, activities (781 bus Frankston, Mount Eliza, Mount Martha, Dromana starting 20 February).

I feel sure that the option to travel to Dromana will also be well received and utilised by many residents.

Thank you all so much, hope you all enjoy your new travel options and independence.

Susan Bristow, Mount Martha

‘Liberal’ Rotary I am grateful to know that the local Rotary clubs

received a draft set of the proposed amendments at least six days prior to the council meeting and a redraft of the critical rule 21 mid-afternoon on 24 August.

Further, she had every opportunity to tell all councillors of her proposed amendments at the council pre-meet/briefing held immediately before the council meeting and attended by councillors and relevant management, including the CEO. But she did not do this and council officers in attendance remained silent even though Cr Marsh had forwarded a copy of the proposed amendment to governance manager Ms Sapolu that afternoon.

Mr Baker and Ms Sapolu, for reasons which have yet to be explained, have proceeded in apparent ignorance of the then and now current versions of the shire’s meeting procedure rules.

Yet these rules had been argued by council and in council briefings almost the entirety of the preceding year.

Let us then have a close look at rule 10 [now rule 15]: “Advice provided to individual councillors”. This rule obliges officers, including Mr Baker and Ms Sapolu, to undertake the following action: "Any advice provided by an officer to a councillor regarding: (a) Meeting procedure or practices; (b) The operation of these Governance Rules; (c) The application of the Act to meetings; and (d) A suggested motion and any

supporting arguments - shall be provided to all other councillors at or about the same time [it is so provided]”.

Then there is rule 11(2), which required the mayor and Cr Race to circulate the proposed amendments “in writing to all other councillors in advance of the commencement of the meeting". It is clear that there was every opportunity for Cr Race to do so, and she chose not to.

And not to be overlooked in all this are the overarching statutory obligations of the CEO to provide advice and support to the mayor and councillors, and that the mayor has an independent duty to act impartially as mayor.

So, the question seriously and properly raised by the Nepean Ratepayers Association with [Local Government Minister Shaun Leane] is whether, given this express rule and the events uncovered in the emails detailed above, Mr Baker and Ms Sapolu "exercised sound judgement, followed good governance practices and are fit and proper people to hold their office"?

The community, as do I, ought to be fully supportive of the Nepean Ratepayers' Association pursuing answers to these serious matters and bringing them to the attention of the Minister for Local Government so that there be proper inquiry and answers provided to what I regard as being a most unsavoury public matter.

Stuart Allen, Dromana

had made a booboo by inviting the highly promoted, no expenses spared, highly photographic, campaigner for Dunkley Ms Sharn Coombes to speak at a future Rotary function (“Liberal speaker” Letters 1/2/22).

Dunkley already has a satisfactory Peta Murphy as its sitting [Labor] MP, so all one can assume is that the peninsula Liberals have jumped the election hurdles prematurely officially based upon the pork barrel Liberal candidate’s election bottomless war chest, judging by the expensive highway advertising signs.

Did Rotary invite Peta Murphy and all the female candidates for Flinders?

Inequality and political bias are unacceptable by an international community organisation that should have been impartial and not allowed a free punt for a potential pollie.

The Liberals have a strong presence in the peninsula membership of local Rotary clubs and so it is questionable as to the propriety of such an invitation. Admittedly, the peninsula Liberals have been getting away with pork barrelling and behind the scenes manipulation, especially in the interference with the Mornington Peninsula Shire elections resulting in three ineffectual political candidates that have lost the trust and support of the 40,000 voters resulting in the swathe of letters complaining about two Briars Ward councillors and [Hastings Labor candidate] Cr Paul Mercurio.

Rotary has had its fingers burnt by this political error and if it wants the prospective [state Mornington] candidate defeated Dunkley MP Chris Crewther coming back for a second bite of a political job for life with cherries on top, then they should apologise for such overt political bias, clean up their act and open membership to a younger demographic.

The peninsula remains the playground for the rich born to rule, and more conservative of our community.

Ian Morrison, convenor Mount Eliza Community Alliance

believe the issue would be addressed but there would be vehement denials and distortions by the spin doctors.

It seems things have gone from bad to worse: CEO in control of council agenda, and [councillors] cannot question officers during a public council meeting.

Maybe the CEO should at least have his spin doctors address the issues which have been brought to light when they are brought to light.

As for what I regard as his exorbitant salary, it has always been my opinion that there are much better candidates for half the money.

Unfortunately, the belief is that if you are not asking for a fortune to do your job, then you have nothing to offer.

Council should put it on the recruitment agencies that no salary over $200,000 will be entertained. John Baker makes $425,000, 75 per cent of the US president’s salary, and 98 per cent of Australia’s prime minister. How can that be justified?

Maybe it is time to limit local government salaries, just like rate capping.

Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Salary cap for CEO It is interesting to see Mornington Peninsula Shire threatening “action” against those who stand up to be counted (“Shire CEO ‘concerned’ over ratepayer group’s allegations” Letters 25/1/22).

The CEO John Baker refers to an article which certainly passes the public interest test (“Call for probe of shire ‘democracy’” The News 18/1/22).

Why has the CEO all of a sudden responded?

There have been several articles about these issues and many letters.

Set the record straight and release all correspondence on the subject and distribution list, let us decide for ourselves. Let’s hear his rebuttal in specifics not spin. And keep in mind that “legal is the lowest form of right”.

As for asking council for comment, I don’t

Beach clean Why can’t we have showers and foot washers like NSW and Queensland beaches? Here at Mornington, especially Mills and Fishermans beaches in Mornington, we’ve no sooner washed our feet than we are sandy again. Even a raised platform would help.

Surely Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has seen the facilities up north and could improve ours?

I think the tap at Fisherman Beach could be 19th century and, when requested, they put a new handle on the tap. What about doing a proper job?

Wendy Doyle, Mornington

Line ball loss How sad it was to see at the Australian Open the absence of linesmen and women? They were a special feature at the Open.

It was sad not to see them as they played a special part in the competition and their decision making in each match. We have to ask why they have been dismissed? Is it a cash cutting decision or a cut-back of human presence?

Geoffrey Lane, Mornington

Morrison’s ‘values’ This is from Scott Morrison’s maiden speech in 2008: “From my faith I derived the values of loving kindness, justice and righteousness, to act with compassion and kindness, acknowledging our common humanity and to consider the welfare of others; to fight for a fair go for everyone to fulfill their human potential and to remove whatever unjust obstacles stand in their way.” I see that as hypocrisy.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

At Last! The Motion Picture Improvement Project

By Stuart McCullough THERE’S no getting around it - I’m going to have to break the first rule of ‘Fight Club’ by talking about ‘Fight Club’. This, of course, means that I’ll also be breaking the second rule of Fight Club. Which seems unreasonable. Clearly, the concept of ‘double jeopardy’ has not reached the ‘Fight Club’ universe. But despite this, it’s impossible to avoid talking about ‘Fight Club’.

Granted, it’s unusual that a twentyyear-old movie should force its way into polite conversation, but I’m not referring to ‘Fight Club’ as you may have known it in 1999. Rather, I’m talking about Fight Club with its all-new and improved ending. ‘Fight Club 2.0’ is now available and, speaking frankly, the ending is far more comforting to those of us who were rattled by the idea of the destruction of human civilization.

For those unfamiliar with it, the movie ‘Fight Club’ involves an unnamed Narrator who suffers from insomnia.

This was years before the movie version of ‘Cats’ had been released, so insomnia was still a thing. He meets Tyler Durden, a soap salesman who’d been expelled from the Ponds Institute for his crazy ideas and, together; they form the aforementioned ‘Fight Club’.

There, young and not so young men beat each other senseless to achieve catharsis. In some countries, this is also known as ‘ice hockey’.

They then embark on ‘Project Mayhem’, which seeks to destroy the corporate, materialistic system through sabotage. To this end, they engage Meat Loaf, and he famously went on to perfect the technique at the 2011 AFL

Grand Final. The movie concludes with the Narrator watching on as Project Mayhem takes effect and buildings be-

gin exploding to the sounds of The Pixies ‘Where Is My Mind?’ Or, at least, that’s how the film used to end.

Attention Schools, sporting clubs

Luckily, censors in China have included a superior ending. A message flashes on screen advising that, as a result of a clue provided by Tyler, the police arrested everyone and the bomb does not explode. Plus, they’ve dumped The Pixies in favour of Meat Loaf’s ‘I Would Do Anything For Love (But I Won’t Do That)’ which, given he was in the film and The Pixies weren’t is probably fair enough. Better still, the new ending advises that Tyler Durden ended up in a lunatic asylum and was released in 2012, opening up the possibility of a sequel. Which is nice.

Predictably, some people are offended by this kind of blatant censorship.

The director of the original motion picture, David Fincher, was reported as describing it as ‘dystopian’. Which is weird given that ‘Fight Club’ is, itself, dystopian. It begs the question: if you act in a dystopian manner towards something that’s already dystopian, do they act like two negatives and cancel each other out? I don’t not know the answer to that one.

I, on the other hand, take great comfort from the new ending. I also see a lot of potential to improve other movies so law and order is maintained.

Granted, some might regard the actions of censors in China and consider them heavy-handed authoritarianism. I prefer to think to see them as an exercise in good taste. I can’t wait to see what they do to other Hollywood classics that are overdue for a tidy up.

‘Casablanca’, for one, is screaming out for a better ending. Instead of facilitating the escape of the leader of the French Resistance and reining karaoke champion together with his former squeeze, Humphrey Bogart’s character

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

Rick will turn them in to the authorities and be lauded as hero. He’ll even get to ride in one of the tanks at the next scheduled military parade.

The film ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ now ends with Ferris being taken in for questioning. Ultimately, he ceases his futile battles against school authorities and goes on to graduate before taking up a mid-level but deeply rewarding position with the Ministry for Information. And, for those who were worried, the 1961 Ferrari Spyder was unharmed, although it’s been replaced by the more modest Toyota Corolla to downplay the decadent consumerism that so marred the original.

‘The Godfather’ and its sequel, which originally had a combined running time of more than six hours, are now all over in fifteen minutes. That’s because of the sterling working work of local authorities who managed to shut down an extensive organized crime ring with extraordinary speed and efficiency. Granted, this makes for a less compelling viewing experience, but you do save a large amount of time. It also means that the third movie no longer needs to exist. Which is good.

The actions of the censors are all taking place under something called ‘Project Cohesion’, which is much like ‘Project Mayhem’ save for the radically altered ending. Having now seen both versions of the movie, on balance I regrettably prefer the original. Not that you can express that view to the censors. Ironically, they still believe the first rule Fight Club is that you can’t talk about Fight Club. It seems some things don’t change, even when the ending does. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

WHAT'S NEW...

Golden line–up for Waterfront Festival ANDREW Swift is set to strike a chord with The Waterfront Festival audiences at the popular February event.

A two-time Golden Guitar Winner (2019 New Talent of the Year and 2019 Alt Country Album of the Year), Andrew is excitedly looking forward to performing as one of the headline acts.

Andrew said: “I love performing at waterfront locations. I've performed at quite a few over the years, but this will be my first one in Frankston.

“I've spent a lot of time down that way over the years and have always enjoyed the Frankston Waterfront. I know the band and I are all looking forward to performing.”

Andrew loves to share a yarn or two while performing, saying: “You can always expect plenty of stories and some laughs. If you don't feel like you know me better than you did before I started the show then I haven't done my job.”

He is rapt to return to live performances post lockdown, adding: “I'm loving getting back to work. Creating and performing my music is my dream job and I'm so happy to be back at it.”

Andrew joins Sneaky Sound System, Jack Jones, Gretta Ziller and Spirit Lines as headliners, with many more artists, at the festival.

Festivities will take place across a larger area of the foreshore than in the past, meaning more room for more fun in the sun, including food trucks and garden bar, market stalls, beach activities, The Dreaming Space fam-

ily entertainment, amusement rides and showbags, live music and roving entertainment, free activities and much more!

Patrons are in for a major treat with not one, not two, but three stages at

the festival.

There’s a huge range of attractions and entertainment throughout the diverse precincts including ‘The Beach and Beyond’ (featuring Peninsula Water Bikes, soccer and volleyball),

PROUDLY PRESENTED BY

‘The Garden Bar’ (featuring a stage with licenced vendors), ‘Food Truck Square’ (offering tasty treats), ‘Activity Arena’ (with free family fun such as circus workshops), ‘Rides and Amusements’ and ‘Waterfront Mar-

kets’ (with heaps of great bargains).

The Waterfront Festival will also be home to the Ventana Fiesta precinct, a colourful celebration of intercultural entertainment and cuisine, which is not to be missed. Ventana is Frankston City’s much-loved Latin arts festival and the Waterfront’s Ventana Fiesta precinct will host the action-packed Mexican Wrestling Ring.

Victor Diaz migrated to Australia in his late 20s and brought his passion for the theatre and drama of Mexican wrestling. His Mexican wrestling show features full costumes, including masks and capes, acrobatic action, gripping storytelling with a good versus evil storyline and a dash of comedy.

Victor said: “The young ones really love the costumes. People get into the show and cheer their favourite or boo the bad guy.”

Enjoy Mexican wrestling featuring The Lone Mariachi and the Silver Masked Men band and the gracious Mexican dancers.

The Waterfront Festival returns with a bang thanks to the much loved fireworks display, filling the sky on Saturday, 19 February at 9.45pm! Be sure you secure your spot for the best views of a sparkling display set to dazzle and delight all.

Date: Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 February 2022.

Location: Frankston Foreshore.

Cost: Free Entry.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

‘A Wall of Flame’ – Huge fire at Frankston Compiled by Cameron McCullough THAT an incendiarist is in our midst is the contention of many local residents.

Recent conflagrations seem to point that way.

Fires at Seaford and Frankston have destroyed much valuable ti-tree, but their origin seems to be clothed in mystery.

But, just as from the tiny acorn grew the mighty oak, so do devastating fires in most cases have their nefarious birth in the flame of the little match.

And the origin of recent fires seem to be the work of one who has lost his mental balance.

Evidence of this was obtained on Sunday last. While out walking, a young couple observed a man light a fire among decayed bracken fern close to The Fernery.

They put the fire out.

The man, it is stated, wore a black suit, and was respectable in appearance. He carried what appeared to be a well-bound book under his arm, and this was believed to have been a Bible.

As the young couple thought the man was bent on evil, they followed him.

Hurrying along William Street, the man attempted to light a fire on two occasions, but failed.

The assistance of residents in the locality was then sought, but the man they sought was of the elusive type and made good his escape.

But, on Monday afternoon, about one o’clock, it is stated, a lady was astounded to see the same man walk up Kars Street towards Gweno Avenue.

Whether he originated it or not, the fact remains that shortly afterwards a fire broke out in that locality.

With an easterly breeze blowing, the fire soon increased in volume, and Mrs Nolan, who resides close to the Bon Vue Estate, sent the alarm to the fire station for assistance.

The response by the members of the fire brigade was prompt.

Willing workers were quickly on the scene, and promptly dived into the titree to give battle to the fierce enemy.

But, despite their efforts, the flames, gathering force, strength and area as they went, swept on like a huge wall towards George Street, where some 30 houses lie in the course of the flames.

The scattered houses in the Woodland Grove, right in the very midst of the fire, were saved, and it was only by super-human effort and a plentiful supply of water that the houses in George Street were saved from destruction.

The danger at one time was indeed great, and many residents realised this by getting all their valuables into the street.

After about three hours’ strenuous effort, the fury seemed to have been well tamed, and most of the men departed.

After their departure the fire broke out in the gullies, about half-mile away, and soon had a fierce hold.

By the efforts of a few men, the fire was beaten back on its own track, and at 7.30 was quite under control.

The members of the brigade rendered yeomen service, and deserve much praise for services rendered.

The same applies to that band of

willing unattached workers who toiled like trojans throughout.

Some of the workers were incensed at the unmanly action of a number of men who watched the fire from Kars St; men who clung to the safety of their young ladies’ skirts and enjoyed the fire as a spectacle!

They seemed to be disappointed that no houses were burnt or greater damage done.

An example to these soft-headed nincompoops was set by two young ladies and a middle-aged lady who helped to fight the flames in earnest, and by those young ladies who followed the men into the heat and smoke with supplies of drinking water. *** DR. C. Maxwell, who has been ill for over a fortnight, and compelled to keep to his bed, was able to resume practice this week. *** MR George Barnett notifies by advertisement that he has commenced business as general carrier in Frankston and all parcels or goods received by him will be promptly delivered, or orders by post or phone attended to at once. *** ON Sunday last, at Frankston, a collision occurred at the intersection of Bay Street and Mornington Road, between motor cars going in different directions.

Fortunately no one was injured, and although the cars suffered somewhat they were not put out of action.

The scene of the mishap is acknowledged to be a most dangerous spot,

and many hairbreadth escapes from serious catastrophes are already on record.

The Shire Council at its last meeting had its attention drawn to the position

by Cr Wells, and it is understood that Major Lazarus, the shire engineer, is now arranging for the widening of the road.

In the interests of all concerned it is hoped that the work will be put in hand at once. *** R. BILLINGTON & Son, who have purchased the dairying business of W. & A. Lewis in Bay St, Frankston.

In another column thanks is expressed to the public for the liberal patronage bestowed to the retiring firm, and the information is given that the milk from Mrs Lewis’s dairy farm will be retailed by the new firm of R. Billington & Son. *** THE ordinary meeting of the Frankston Branch of the Returned Soldiers League was held on Monday evening last, the president, Mr W. M. Hanton in the chair.

It was decided to entertain the Fathers at a smoke social on Monday, 6th March.

The League’s new badges are now on hand and all financial members can obtain some from Mr D. Dodd, the branch secretary. *** MR A. Lisle, dentist, of Collins St, advises that be will not be making his usual visit to Somerville on Thursday next, 16th inst. *** MISS Rene Galt, teacher of piano-

forte, notifies that she will resume tuition on the 20th inst. *** SISTER Campbell announces in another column that she is still carrying on St. Pancras Private Hospital, in Frankston. *** THE Frankston Private Hospital is now open for midwifery and general medical and surgical cases.

It is under the management of Miss Creswick, and a trained staff.

The premises are those near the Mile Bridge recently occupied by Mr Ben Baxter, and are eminently suited for its present purpose, the spacious verandah and garden, making it very attractive.

All patients are under the care and treatment of Dr C. Maxwell. *** HOWELLS store, Seaford was entered by thieves on Saturday night last, and a sum of £15 stolen from the cash register.

A robbery is also reported from Mr J. Finch’s residence, in the same district. *** THE petition, lodged by Jessie Sheridan, of St Kilda, for judicial separation from her husband, John Sheridan, of Melbourne Road, Frankston, came before Mr Justice McFarlane in the Civil Court on Tuesday last.

On the grounds that Mrs Sheridan was of alleged nervous disposition and given to exaggerating things, the petition was dismissed. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 10 February 1922

Langwarrin had a bye.

Streets bypasses Orr Stakes HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou SHANE Nichols’ dual Group 1 winner Streets of Avalon won’t defend his Orr Stakes title this Saturday at Caulfield.

The highest earning son of Magnus made a sound return when running fifth first-up in the Group 2 Australia Stakes (1200m) a fortnight ago, but Mornington-based trainer Shane Nichols said he wasn’t entirely happy with the results of the gelding’s recent blood tests.

Nichols said he’s happy to wait a week before making a decision on where to head next.

“It was a good return but he didn’t handle the soft track, he needs it fairly firm,” Nichols said. “He got a bit further back than what we

would’ve wanted but he ran home well.

“He came back with a bit of a bad blood so will wait until early next week and will decide what to do next.”

Streets of Avalon is still nominated for the $5million All-Star Mile (1600m) in March and currently holds 252 votes. He has contested the richest mile race in the world the last two years, with his best result finishing 7th last year with minimal luck.

Wait and see: Streets of Avalon won’t defend his Group 1 Orr Stakes at Caulfield this Saturday.

Dover to Langy, Currie to Pines SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie LANGWARRIN has sealed the signing of attacking midfielder Keiran Dover from NPL heavyweight Bentleigh Greens.

It’s a massive coup for the local club but its off-season splurge may not end there as another NPL star is considering joining Scott Miller’s men.

The curtain falls on the NPL transfer window at 5pm on Thursday but already what surely is the strongest squad ever assembled at Lawton Park is preparing an assault on the NPL2 title and a historic place in Victoria’s elite club competition.

Dover, 25, has reached the highest levels in Australian club soccer making his debut for Melbourne Victory off the bench in 2014 against arch enemy Sydney.

He’s had two stints at Dandenong Thunder and Bentleigh Greens and played with Green Gully in 2018.

He was bullish about his new club’s prospects heading into the season.

“Langwarrin is an ambitious club and it’s known for being really competitive,” he said.

“I can’t wait to help the club push for promotion and with the current playing group and coaching staff I believe we have the quality to compete at NPL level.

“The facilities are great and I can’t wait to get started.”

There was no happier person at Lawton Park than Miller who has had Dover on his radar for some time.

“I’ve been tracking him for probably 18 months now,” Miller said.

“Our focus always has been on trying to get the best players in the area to play for us and knowing his character and football qualities he’s going to be great for the club, no doubt.

“We’ve worked hard behind the scenes these past three years and the fact that the club’s profile has risen to such a degree that players of this quality want to join us is a credit to all involved.”

Langy’s build-up to the league kickoff next month continues on Friday at Jack Edwards Reserve when Miller’s men take on Oakleigh Cannons at 6.30pm (under-21s) and 7.30pm (seniors).

And the feeling at Frankston Pines that the State 3 championship rug has been pulled from under their feet for the past two seasons no longer is front of mind as they zero in on this year’s campaign with news that Aaran Currie has switched from Casey Comets.

The Scottish striker joined Comets

Dynamic duo: Keiran Dover (left) and Aaran Currie were the major signings made by local clubs last week. Pictures: supplied

from Peninsula Strikers last November so the move was unexpected.

“It looks like Pines have got a chance to win the league and the most I’ve enjoyed football was when I won the league with Langy (in 2017) and I want to win it again,” Currie said.

“My work commitments meant I was struggling with the schedule at Casey and I wanted a more relaxed atmosphere where I still had the chance to win something.”

Pines remain in talks with Currie’s close friend and former Langy teammate Liam Baxter.

Currie joins other off-season signings in Ryan Ratcliffe (from Launceston United), Keegan Grealy (Doncaster Rovers), Thomas Dunn (Navua FC, Fiji), Tommy Hawkins (Peninsula Strikers) and Beaumaris duo Callum Batey and Tom Scott.

“Aaron brings us something a little different as he likes to play on the shoulder of the last defender, has undoubted class and great technical ability,” Pines senior coach Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor said.
