Splash down FRANKSTON’S $49.7 million Peninsula Aquatic Recreation Centre was opened up to the public for the first time on Saturday. Dad Tristan and son Tyrell were among the first to enjoy the thrills and spills of the ‘Constrictor’ 2-person raft ride. The state-of-the-art centre features a 50-metre heated indoor swimming pool, water slides, a gym, group exercise studios, swim school and wellness centre. The weekend’s opening passed without incident, but minor mishaps marred the build up to PARC’s opening with two people injured while on a raft ride.

Candidates speak up Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au CANDIDATES hoping to defeat incumbent Geoff Shaw at November’s state election have backed Frankston Council’s Speak Up For Frankston campaign. The mayor, Cr Darrel Taylor, met with candidates individually last week
to detail council’s push to demand $67 million in state government funding for five major Frankston projects. Cr Taylor said, at this early stage of the campaign, all candidates had given “in-principle support” to council’s goal of securing more funding for Frankston. Labor candidate for Frankston Paul Edbrooke, Australian Greens candidate Jeanette Swain and independent
hopeful Mervyn Vogt met individually with the mayor to be briefed on the Speak Up For Frankston campaign. Liberal candidate Sean Armistead is due to meet Cr Taylor next week. Cr Taylor said Mr Armistead was aware of the campaign’s aims. “He’s well aware of our top five priorities and will be given the same opportunity as other candidates to hear our case,” he said.

‘Sorry’ Shaw survives vote Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au IN the end it came down to the narrowest of margins: one vote. Geoff Shaw survived an attempt last Thursday by his former Liberal Party colleagues to oust him from parliament by using his own vote to defeat Premier Denis Napthine’s motion to expel the Frankston MP for “contempt”. Mr Shaw sided with the Labor opposition to avoid the ignominy of becoming the first MP since Edward Findley in 1901 to be expelled from Victoria’s parliament. Mr Findley was thrown out for “libel of the king”. Mr Shaw drew Dr Napthine’s ire for calling his 11-day suspension, $6838 fine and forced apology to parliament, for breaking MPs’ code of conduct over parliamentary vehicle expenses, “a political farce”. On Thursday, the Premier thundered: “The member for Frankston failed the critical test of providing an appropriate apology. He was not genuine, he was not fair dinkum. It was a farcical situation that he himself described as a farce. “There was no genuine remorse, no genuine apology, no genuine understanding that he has done the wrong thing by the people of Victoria and this house.” The Premier’s bluster failed to convince opposition leader Daniel Andrews, so keen to see Mr Shaw ex-
pelled back in June, to rid Dr Napthine of Mr Shaw for the remaining week or so of parliament before November’s state election. In June, Mr Andrews had insisted Mr Shaw should be expelled. “We ought to take action once and for all on the member for Frankston, not because it is expedient, not because it’s about personality, not because it’s about politics, but it’s about probity and decency. There is no place for the member for Frankston and his rorting in the parliament of Victoria.” Mr Andrews was somewhat more restrained last week, saying Dr Napthine had missed his chance to expel Mr Shaw when he voted to suspend him instead in June. If the Liberal-turnedindependent MP had been expelled then, it would have triggered a byelection and potentially a change in government. Mr Andrews labelled Dr Napthine’s about-turn a “grubby, cheap political stunt” before performing an about-turn of his own, helping Mr Shaw remain in parliament thanks to the 83-82 vote against the government. Mr Shaw released a statement after the vote, accusing Dr Napthine of runing a “personal agenda to the detriment of the state he is supposed to be running.” Frankston voters will decide in two months’ time, on 29 November, whether they wish to expel Mr Shaw from parliament.
Mental focus for art exhibition

Shaw award for bravery NO stranger to confrontation, Frankston MP Geoff Shaw has presented a Frankston Community Bravery award to James Maunder for helping a seriously injured man. The award from Mr Shaw’s office came after he was told about how James had helped stem the flow of blood from the unconscious man’s head and rolled him on his side. James, a Mount Erin College student who was working part-time in a pizza shop, had witnessed the man being bashed outside the shop. Teacher Jenny Pudney credited James with saving the man’s life. She said the injured man had gone into the pizza shop bleeding from a
cut head only to be dragged outside by another man who smashed his head against the plate glass window and kicked him until he was unconscious. “James told his boss to call 000, grabbed some gloves and paper towel and rushed outside to the assist the casualty,” Ms Pudney said. “He put pressure on the head wound to stop the bleeding and made sure that the unconscious man was rolled onto his side.” “James proved himself to be an excellent first-aider and managed to keep a level head in circumstances which would test most adults.” James was given the rest of the day off by his boss.
ESTABLISHED and budding artists living with a mental illness are being encouraged to submit their work to this year’s Frankston and Mornington Peninsula Mental Health Week Art Exhibition. The exhibition is run by Mental Illness Fellowship Victoria, which showcases the talents of local artists living with a mental illness. Last year’s winner of the People’s Choice Award, Brett Greener, is encouraging other artists from the area to give the competition a go. “I didn’t expect to win the award last year, and am very grateful for the opportunity to get my art out there,” Greener said. “Art has helped with my recovery more than anything else. With every new piece of art I get better and learn new things. I think I’m doing well for just painting for a year and a half, but have drawn all my life.” Mental Illness Fellowship Victoria’s Frankston and Mornington Peninsula regional manager Marinette Dames said art is a “fantastic tool” to help on the road to recovery. The exhibition is open to all artists living with mental illness in the Frankston and Mornington Peninsula region and there is no entry fee. Each artist should include with their entry a statement describing the ways in which creativity benefits their mental health recovery. The closing date for submissions is Friday 12 September. For more information about the exhibition contact Kylie Docksey, Kath Blommestein or Katyana Dunston on 9784 6800.

Man ‘attacked’ over hooning incident Chris Brennan chris@baysidenews.com.au THREE men were taken into custody after a man was allegedly assaulted with a metal pole and threatened with a firearm during a road rage incident in Frankston last week. Police were called to Eton Court about 4.30pm on Saturday 30 August following a confrontation between the alleged victim and the three men over a “speeding� incident. The man told police he observed a car speeding in Frome St and followed the vehicle to an address in Eton Court where he confronted the three men about the driver’s behaviour. “The three men have then allegedly assaulted the male with metal pole [before] one of the assailants then allegedly produced a firearm and pointed the gun at victims head,� Senior Sergeant Michael Lamb of Frankston police said. “The victim was able to escape the three men and return home where he notified police and ambulance.� The three men were still at the residence in Eton Court when police arrived soon afterwards. They were all arrested and taken into custody. Police said they later discovered a firearm stripped down into pieces during a seach of the residence. A 32-year-old Frankston man and two men of no fixed abode aged 32
and 33 will face Frankston Magistrates Court charged with assault, affray, firearms and weapons offences. ď Ž A WOMAN was remanded in custody and more than 800 warrants worth in excess of $275,000 were executed during a combined law enforcement agency blitz at Frankston transport hub last week. The 24-year-old Frankston woman was remanded in custody after she was found to have five outstanding warrants for her arrest. Police allege she was also found to be in possession of a stun gun when arrested on Tuesday during a one-day operation involving police, sheriff’s officers and transit safety officials. A total of 806 sheriff’s warrants worth $275,315 were executed, as well as six police warrants, and 74 transport offences. ď Ž REMAINS feared to have been human spotted in a Carrum Downs drain last week have been found to belong to a chicken. Police were called to Lakewood Boulevard about 11am last Thursday after bones were located in a drain by a member of the public. The bones were transported to the Coroners Court in Melbourne for testing by forensic pathologists to determine whether they were human or animal. Police later confirmed the bones were from a chicken.
Driver hurt as truck rolls PEAK hour traffic was thrown into chaos after a fully-laden concrete truck rolled over at the busy intersection of Western Port Highway and Robinsons Rd, Pearcedale, on Thursday afternoon. Emergency services teams worked for more than an hour to free the trapped driver, who was seriously injured in the incident, by cutting away the roof of the truck’s cabin. He was airlifted to The Alfred hospital by an ambulance helicopter in a stable condition after suffering pelvic injuries in the crash. The Central Pre-mix Concrete truck rolled over after making a right-hand turn from the Western Port Highway into Robinsons Rd about 3.50pm. The intersection has been the site of numerous collisions and traffic snarls, despite the completion of a $1.7 upgrade in 2012. Local residents say the upgrade has done little to help alleviate issues at the intersection and have called for construction of a roundabout to control traffic. Pictures: Gary Sissons

Tammy challenge: Minimbah pupils Jussy, Levon and Elle are ready to take the plunge in a charity race against champion swimmer Tammy van Wisse. Picture: Gary Sissons
Big splash to raise well money PUPILS from Woodleigh School’s junior campus, Minimbah, are making a big splash about their latest fundraising project. They have challenged marathon swimmer Tammy van Wisse to an endurance race, with the pupils earning sponsorship money for each lap they complete. Money raised will go towards digging wells in Ethiopia. Each well costs $6000. Around 150 pupils will join in the challenge against van Wisse, 46, at the Mornington Secondary College pool on Wednesday 17 September. She will keep on swimming laps while the pupils race in relays. The long-distance swimmer, whose brother John recently completed the Arch to Arc ultra triathlon, has won many marathon swims. She swam the length of the Murray River in 2001, a distance of 2438 kilometres, and the English Channel twice in the early 1990s. In
2006, she broke an 81-year old record for a 56 kilometre swim from New York City to Sandy Hook, in the US. She has previously visited the school to talk about the work of Wellwishers. Minimbah principal Rod Davies said the school had raised $4000 so far this year for various projects, including Jeans for Jeans Day, SIDS, cancer research, Daffodil Day and in support of remote indigenous communities. “We always put it back on the students and ask what causes they would like us to support,” he said. “They thought wells in Ethiopia were a good idea.” The Wellwishers organisation will oversee work on the wells and other charity projects. Mr Davies said readers could also donate to Wellwishers via wellwishersethiopia.org.au Stephen Taylor

Relaxed yoghurt maker takes time out after $80m sale
Proudly published by Mornington Peninsula News Group Pty Ltd
PHONE: 1300 MPNEWS (1300 676 397) Published weekly
“IF you run a good business you’re bound to get interest from the bigger guys in your space,” is the straightforward answer from five:am founder David Prior on the reason for the successful sale of his Carrum Downsbased company for $80 million. Named after his routine of getting up at five in the morning to meditate, do yoga or check the surf, Prior says the sale of organic yoghurt maker five:am to British-based PZ Cussons was settled over a four-month period. The “pretty good process” was achieved with the help of the Macquarie Group, which was originally hired to find a suitable partner for five:am’s expansion into Asia. PZ Cussons’ brands in Australia include Morning Fresh, Radiant, Duo, Imperial Leather, Original Source, St Tropez, Sanctuary Spa, Fudge, Fudge Urban and Rafferty’s Garden. Married with a six-year-old daughter, Prior wants to start a new business from scratch but, before doing anything about it, will take a month’s surfing holiday in Brazil. Yoghurt-making equipment was installed at the Carrum Downs plant in 2010 and containers of five:am first went on Woolworth’s shelves in March 2011. Prior remains at five:am until October - the end of a three-month transition - and then assumes the role of a non-executive director. If profit projections are reached in 2015 he stands to receive a further $14m. In 2013/14 five:am recorded revenue of $35.6 million.

Surfing holiday: David Prior plans a month’s surfing holiday in the wake of selling his five:am yoghurt company for $80 million. Picture: Keith Platt
In June 2012 Prior told BusinessTimes magazine that he decided to make yoghurt after a year in which he did “lots of surfing and yoga”. He still gets up at 5am daily to meditate and do yoga for two hours, a practice which provided the name for five:am yoghurt. Before starting to make yoghurt Prior had he helped his father Malcolm run and then sell (to Amcor) the Beroda packaging company at Braeside. At that time he said it was the thought of tasting the fruitcake and muffins every day that put him off buying a ready-made profitable business. Instead of eating fruit dyed with chemical colours and cake made with
bleached flour he opted to start his own company. “It was a much bigger risk, but I was following my heart and my head. I didn’t want to produce something that’s rubbish.” He plans to carry the same ethics that he followed at five:am to his new and as yet unknown venture. “I would like to really start a new business. Five:am took a year of thinking and a year of setting up and we produced [yoghurt] for three and a half years, so it was a five-year project.,” Prior said. “Sometimes it’s good to move on, but I never thougtht it would have been as short as this.” Keith Platt

Carrum’s cracker of a rink PARC’s bumpy ride THE setting of the Australian comedy film Crackerjack in 2002, the Carrum Bowling Club, has unveiled a new synthetic rink that’s sure to be a hit with members. Although only on screen for five minutes, the clubhouse and rinks were central to the movie whose main star – radio and TV performer Mick Molloy – grew up in Mt Eliza. Established in 1924 and opened by the then prime minister, Stanley Bruce, the Keast Park club has capitalised on its 90 year history by forging a strong association with the residents of Carrum and Seaford. The striking clubhouse design of 2011 catches the eyes of motorists driving along Beach Rd. The old building – dating from 1960 – was knocked down to make way for it. At last Saturday’s opening of the new rink, Cr Glenn Aitken – whose Frankston City ward takes in Seaford – was honoured by a life membership after 15 years’ service to the club. About 60 guests enjoyed a bowls session and official opening of the new season, and then went upstairs for lunch. “Our club membership caters for all groups through many different types of programs regardless of age, gender or ability,” president Phil Kelly said. “The club is a vibrant and fun place to play bowls and socialise throughout the year. “In the summer members play competition pennant and friendly matches. In the winter we play indoor and outdoor bowls and socialise on many nights.” Barefoot bowls is also popular. Mr Kelly said the cost of maintaining and nurturing the previous

grass rink in its unforgiving bayside environment was prohibitive. “The old grass needed refurbishing and it was going to cost us $80,000 to redo and $40,000 each year in upkeep – and, when it rained, it was unusable,” he said. In contrast, the synthetic rink cost $185,000 and $1500 a year in upkeep, meaning the beach-side club is financially ahead after three years. New
lights will add to the time available for use. Mr Kelly said the movie was a positive for the club in that it attracted younger members to a sport usually associated with oldies. “I’m 46 and have been president for two years,” he said. Those interested in joining the club should call 9772 2347. Stephen Taylor
PENINSULA Aquatic Recreation Centre CEO Peter Armstrong is confident the new centre’s AquaSphere family raft ride is safe for families despite two people suffering injuries in its tunnel late last month. Frankston Council staff and their families attended a closed doors session at PARC on Thursday 28 August ahead of its opening to the public. Mr Armstrong said two adults “sustained minor head injuries” when sliding down the raft ride’s sealed tunnel. “The incidents occurred in the third sphere of the tunnel where the tunnel drops down significantly,” Mr Armstrong said. “In both incidents, the riders hit their heads on the inside of the tunnel, with one person being sent to hospital for observation overnight.” Mr Armstrong said a drop in the third sphere of the tunnel had not been sufficiently illuminated and so people could not see the drop to brace themselves for what was ahead. He said holes have been drilled into the top of the tunnel’s spheres, enabling natural light to enter, and further artificial lights would be installed along the tunnel. “Prior to the lights being installed, the slides will only be in operation whilst there is sufficient natural light,” Mr Armstrong said. “My staff have walked the length of
the tunnel and observed that it is now well lit – the vision is good for people as they slide down.” As an extra precaution, PARC staff will remind people to hold onto the side of rafts as they slide down the aquasphere ride and prepare for any sudden drops. The AquaSphere family raft ride has high speed twists, turns and drops. There are three five-metre spheres where the rafts bank around 90 degree corners. The ride’s manufacturer WhiteWater promotes the AquaSphere concept as featuring “heart-pounding oscillations” on its website. There is no mention of headpounding drops. Mr Armstrong said more than 1000 people had tested the AquaSphere family raft ride without incident since it was built at PARC. “There have been no other similar incidents of injury,” Mr Armstrong said. “Despite this, we have taken these two incidents very seriously, and the measures we are now putting in place will ensure that people are well prepared for the ride.” He said the two people injured are now “well”. The PARC opened on Saturday (6 September) and features a 50-metre heated indoor swimming pool, water slides, a gym, group exercise studios, swim school and wellness centre. It aims to be “the peninsula’s premier Aquatic, Fitness and Fun park.

Ms Swain said the projects highlighted as important by council were “necessary for Frankston, especially the sporting facilities and integrated health services”. “I think the Greens would clearly support these initiatives.” Independent candidate Mr Vogt noted Frankston “has been neglected for so long”. “It should get the funding it deserves... this is a key point of Victoria,” he said. “Promises are not enough, we have to see action.” Vacant shopfronts in Frankston’s city centre were an indication in “the lack of confidence here”, according to Mr Vogt.
“It hurts me to see business after business closing down... the state government has to invest here,” he said. Cr Taylor said council would continue to ramp up its Speak Up For Frankston campaign. He said the public response had been “extraordinary”. “We’ve had over 300 responses to our online survey and an incredible response on social media.” Council has been encouraging Frankston residents to use the #speakupforfrankston hashtag online to let politicians know the campaign has their support. Cr Taylor said council planned to “keep the pressure on” until November’s election.

Paying for the sounds of silence Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au AT best it can be no more than hearing an annoying ringing. At worst, it can affect concentration and sleep and cause feelings of stress and anxiety. Sufferers of chronic tinnitus perceive a constant noise - whooshing, ringing or pure tones, even a tune which can stop them from leading a normal life. Scientists say the “noise” is not really there and two Melbourne-based researchers are hoping to deliver a downloadable cure. Science writer Dr Kirsten Puls, of South Frankston, is helping raise money through crowdfunding for biomedical and software engineers, Dr Ian Dixon and Tony Burgess to test their ideas gained from a decade of research. They hope an app that can be downloaded to an iPad will break the cycle of tinnitus. “The clinical trial will of course be the proof of the pudding - if they can fund it,” Dr Puls said. “It’s been previously shown that it’s possible to suppress tinnitus with sound temporarily, but Dr Dixon believes it’s possible to make this permanent.” Causes of chronic tinnitus include ear trauma, injury, some drugs and disease. There is no proven cure. The app – tinAway - is designed to generate “multidimensional sound paradigms” which aim to break a feedback loop linking the perception of a tinnitus sound to irrelevant nerve activity. “A single treatment with tinAway should hopefully result in temporary tinnitus suppression,” Dr Puls said. “But by using tinAway for about an hour a day over a few weeks, it’s hoped the repeated interruptions of the feedback loop will lead to certain overactive neural pathways in the brain being dampened.” A crowdfunding campaign was launched this month to raise US$100,000 to fund a clinical trial of the potential cure. Within two days nearly US$2000 had been raised, mostly from Australia and France. “The largest contribution so far has
Ian dixon
been from someone who doesn't have tinnitus themselves but whose father suffered badly from it and he says it affected the life of the whole family,” Dr Puls said. Dr Dixon hopes the app will re-train the brain, making the suppression of
Tony Burgess
the tinnitus permanent. “Clinical trials are hugely expensive,” he said. “We developed the tinAway prototype using our own resources but we need help to fund clinical trials.” Dr Dixon thinks medical researchers
will increasingly turn to crowdfunding. “It's about the public being involved in helping to develop the treatments they want,” he said. If trials and prototype finalisation are successful, the inventors aim to file tinAway as a medical device with the US Food and Drug Administration (a $510,000 application) and with health authorities in Australia and Europe and make it available on iTunes. International market research has estimated that 500 million smartphone users will be using a health care app by 2015, and that by 2018, 50 per cent of smartphone and tablet users will have downloaded health care apps. Dr Dixon will speak at the next meeting of the Mornington Peninsula Citizens for Science group on 15 October. The crowdfunding campaign is now running on the Indiegogo platform (http://igg.me/at/tinaway).
TAFE cuts not forgotten Neil Walker neil@baysidenews.com.au CUTS to TAFE funding are being highlighted by the Australian Education Union in the lead up to November’s state election. The union has launched a TAFE4ALL campaign calling on MPs and political candidates to sign up to a pledge to “join the fight today to make education an opportunity that every Victorian can access”. Several Labor and Australian Greens candidates around the state have signed the pledge. Labor candidate for Frankston Paul Edbrooke signed up last week. He said the Coalition government’s decision to cut $300 million from the TAFEs budget annually was “deceitful” since the policy had not been mentioned before the 2010 state election. “It’s typical of this government,” he said. “Promises are broken and cuts are never disclosed.”
Mr Edbrooke said any state government had “an obligation” to ensure the opportunity for further education is available to all. Funding cuts to Local Learning and Employment Networks was another example of the Liberal Party’s “abandonment” of youth seeking jobs after leaving school. “High levels of youth unemployment make this the worst time to cut funding,” he said. The Abbott government slashed federal funding to the LLENs in its controversial cost-cutting May budget leaving the state government to pick up any shortfall. The state government has pledged to provide $8 million to the 31 Victorian LLENs which help young people with education, training and employment prospects. This funding is guaranteed for 12 months. Labor has pledged $32 million over four years if it wins government in November.
PORT CREATING JOBS FOR HASTINGS
Mr Edbrooke made his comments about TAFE and LLENs funding cuts when visiting the Frankston Mornington Peninsula Local Learning and Employment Network offices with shadow spokesman for higher education Steve Herbert last Friday. Frankston Mornington Peninsula LLEN executive officer Carol Smith said the TAFE cuts had negatively impacted on young job seekers’ efforts to find skilled work. Ms Smith said those from socially disadvantaged backgrounds often could not afford to pay course fees and TAFEs had been forced to raise fees as a result of funding cuts. The state government said TAFE funding cuts were necessary since subsidised enrolments had surged from 350,000 in 2010 to an “unsustainable” 550,000. Labor has not committed to fully reinstate the TAFE funding cuts if it wins government in November. “The cuts are so deep it’ll take more than one budget,” Mr Edbrooke said.

Top honour: Hayley Russell will receive her Queen’s Scout award at a special ceremony at Government House next month. She is a member of 1st Seaford Scouts. Picture: Gary Sissons
Queen’s Scout award to Hayley SEAFORD girl Hayley Russell likes everything about Scouting. There’s the adventure, the camps, competitions, activities, opportunity to travel and the satisfaction of being a leader … And then there’s the fun of meeting new people, helping with the little Joeys and the feeling-good-inside joy of volunteering. “She loves it all,” mum Amanda said. Now, that dedication is being rewarded: Hayley, 18, is to receive a Queen’s Scout award at a special ceremony at Government House next month. Starting as a Brownie at age six, she moved through to Scouts when she was 11 and now there’s no stopping her, with interesting activities taking up much of her free time. Through her Venturer’s activities, Hayley has friends all over Australia as well as overseas. The award gave her a glimpse of the amount of work required for her Queens Scout award, Amanda said. One task was to plan and organise two trips – one a Great Ocean Rd walk and the other a trip to NSW to play paintball. She had to work out the various costs of each trip, the risk factors and OH&S considerations – and then
manage them both and, afterwards, document what happened. It took Hayley 500 hours to complete all the required tasks, badge work and leadership courses for the movement’s highest award, but the journey has been worth it, she says. Other Scouts find her enthusiasm infectious. Hayley has built up the troop’s Venturer unit, which had been rather sedate, from three or four Scouts to a “very active 18”. Likewise, Her Queen’s Scout Award – the first at the 1st Seaford troop in 13 years – has been something of a watershed, Amanda said, with other Scouts now keen to achieve the same honour. “She’s become something of a role model to the younger ones.” Now in year 12 at Frankston High, Hayley struggled with juvenile arthritis at 13 but didn’t let physical issues get in the way of worthwhile activities. She plays basketball and studies hard and goes to Scouting events at least twice a week. “She’s got a lot on her plate but she loves it,” Amanda said. “There’s no stopping her.” Stephen Taylor

Frankston Times 8 September 2014
Racing club unveils its new ‘face’ THIS year’s Face of the Mornington Racing Club, Caitrin O’Rourke, is no stranger to racecourses. The 29-year-old nurse from Ireland relocated to Australia two years ago and has always had a keen interest in horse racing. “My dad and brothers had shares in horses in Ireland and I have been doing show jumping and racing since I was a lass. While I was putting myself through uni I rode track work for trainers to earn extra money,” said Ms O’Rourke, who lives next to the Mornington Racecourse with her partner, racecourse vet Eoin Kelly. Ms O’Rourke arrived in Melbourne two years ago on Peninsula Cup Day and spent her first seven days at seven different race meetings. “In my first week here, I spent all my time at Moonee Valley and then Mornington,” she said. “While I was waiting for my nursing registration, I worked for Pat Carey in Mornington and Gai Waterhouse at Randwick doing track work. “I have ridden races in Ireland and some charity races and still do work around the racecourse. “I was attracted to Mornington because that’s where Eoin is based and have loved making it my new home. I can understand why so many people from Ireland and England have moved here.” As a paediatric nurse at The Royal Children’s Hospital, Ms O’Rourke says racing and fashion provide a great outlet. “I love getting dressed up to go to the races and am looking forward to
representing the local community. I like to shop locally and support peninsula boutiques and milliners,” she said. “Although I have competed in a few fashions on the field, this is the first time I have applied for anything like this and can’t wait to start attending functions and putting outfits together.” Ms O’Rourke said that when it comes to fashion, it is best to stick with what works for you. “Style is a very individual thing and it’s important to stay with what suits you,” she said. “This spring carnival we will see bold floral prints, bold colours like bright yellows and acid orange as well as prints like houndstooth. “My personal style is classical with nice dresses and I always seem to wear pearls. “The most important thing is to wear what you feel comfortable and confident in. If you have a long day at the races make sure your shoes fit you well and are comfortable like wedges instead of stilettos.” As the new Face of Mornington Racing Club, Ms O’Rourke receives a 12-month modelling and management contract, pampering and style packages and $500 cash. She will also have the opportunity to attend fashion and race day events and be involved in on-stage interviews and hosting events, trophy presentations, media interviews and fashions on the field competitions. Judges felt that Ms O’Rourke’s international horse racing experience, dedication to learning the ropes, savvy fashion sense, outgoing personality
Water safety app
On course: Mornington Racing Club’s Face of Racing Caitrin O’Rourke is a racecourse regular, both in the fashion and horse riding stakes.
and natural beauty meant she was the perfect candidate to front the promotion of Mornington Racecourse. “Caitrin wowed us with her extensive experience and extreme passion for horseracing, not only in Victoria but throughout the world, and has a keen eye for racing fashion
which will be a huge asset in her new role at Mornington,” racecourse manager Angela Cleland said. Ms O’Rourke’s first appearance in her new role is at Sportingbet Peninsula Cup Day on Sunday 3 November. Melissa Hodge
AS part of a community awareness and support program, Frankston Coast Guard volunteers attended Frankston District Junior Football finals at Langwarrin over the past few Sundays. They were busy supervising parking, conducting fundraising activities, providing “safety on the water” education and establishing support for the proposed regional boating facility at Oliver’s Hill. Their petition to the state government, in support of the marina, has more than 1800 signatures. “In the spirit of community cooperation, during a period of low activity on the water, the junior finals provided an opportunity to connect with parents who will be taking their children out on the bay in the coming fishing and boating season,” flotilla commander Anthony Mayall said. Those attending Sunday’s grand finals were invited to visit the coast guard’s boat display for information about the new smartphone app – SafeTrx. Suitable for android and Apple iOS devices (iPhone or iPad), the app allows boaters to have their journey recorded and monitored by the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard 24 hours a day, every day of the year. Using their smartphones, boaters enter their journey details and set off while the app periodically sends location data back to the servers. Should they not return by a given time, a response team will be alerted and appropriate action taken. Those wanting to join the Australian Volunteer Coast Guard should email sadco@coastguard. com.au

Tax time IT’S
Protect your personal information YOUR personal information, like your identity – is unique. You use it to verify who you are and to access things like bank accounts, loans and tax returns. Protecting your personal information is important. But do you know what to protect? Personal information includes your name, address, date of birth, credit card details, myGov details, tax file number and driver’s licence details. Without proper protection your personal information can be stolen. For example, a scammer might use a fake job recruitment process to ask for information like your tax file number. Scammers can also email you, knock on your door and collect your details
via online ‘classifieds’. Like locking up your house or covering your pin at the ATM, make protecting your personal information part of your day. Here are a few simple tips to follow: firstly, don’t put your tax file number on your resume and only give it to an employer after you’ve started a job never share your tax file number on social media if your relationship status changes, think about changing any passwords you shared, and if you’re going to use a tax agent, make sure they’re registered. Go to www.ato.gov.au/identitycrime for more tips. Protect your personal information and you’ll protect yourself.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Farewelling the Frankston volunteers Compiled by Melissa Hodge THE annual meeting of the Peninsula Cricket Association will be held on Wednesday next. *** LOST the red rag waved at the Patriotic concert on Tuesday last. Finder please return to the Veteran. *** IF ‘Smitho’ goes through the Germans like he goes through the footballers he will be sure to reach Berlin. *** EVEN the patriotic meeting started late at Frankston. We hope the forces fighting for us at the front will never arrive half an hour too late. *** CAPT. Guy Madden expressed regret that he was unable to attend at the presentation to the members of the expeditionary force on Tuesday last. *** THE Mechanics Hall was tastefully and elegantly decorated for the Patriotic concert by the ladies. A lot of the success of the evening was brought about by the patriotic atmosphere. Flags, wars, and rumours of war everywhere. *** MAJOR Campbell, who is well known in Frankston, was accorded a hearty welcome when he came forward to make the first presentation to members of the expeditionary force at the big Frankston meeting. *** COL. H. M. Grimwade was unable to attend at the patriotic concert, Frankston. Two wristlet watches sent
by Col. Grimwade were presented to the soldiers by Capt. S. Sherlock. *** IT is rumoured that a number of well known citizens have already volunteered to join the second expeditionary force. If each country town sends the same quota as Frankston there will be sufficient to fill the Broadmeadows training grounds. *** MR J. Reynolds, caretaker of the Frankston gardens, has received from the State nursery the following Acacia seeds :-Acacia Elsta, Cedar Wattle, Vericillata, Stricta, Sydney Green, Golden Wattle Broad Leaf, Descolar, Bileyana, Cootamuundra, Decurranu, Any one desirous of planting Australian Wattle may obtain seeds gratis from Mr Reynolds, Bay Street. *** WE understand that the Bay View Hotel, Frankston is about to change hands. Mrs Gregory, after carrying on the business for over 21 years, is about to retire, having leased the hotel to Mr Hunt, late of Drouin. Residents will be pleased to learn that although retiring from business it is not the intention of the family to leave Frankston, but will in future live privately. *** A MEEETING of the Tyabb cemetery trustees was held on Friday last, Cr C. Murray occupying the chair, A letter was read from W. J. Haddock, asking that the remuneration for sexton be increased to £1 per grave. The matter was deferred till next meeting. ***
AT the Frankston Court on Monday, before Messrs Clements, Williams and Baxter, J’s.P., Arthur Balderson, Arthur Wm. Whittle and Win. Cuming were charged by the police with driving their motors on the footpath at Frankston on the 23rd of August last. As the police did not press for a heavy penalty, owing to the admitted nearly impossible state of the roadway, the bench fined each defendant 10s, without costs. *** CONTRIBUTIONS to the Frankston Patriotic Fund are still coming in. Among other donations the New Frankston Masonic Lodge has given five guineas. The sports committee have donated five pounds and Mr Thos. Bailey of the Frankston Nurseries has contributed five pounds. Any donations, no matter how small, will be thankfully received by Dr Maxwell, President, or Dr Plowman, Hon.Treasurer of the fund. We intend to publish a full list of contributors next week. *** A PAINFULLY sudden death occurred at Lang Lang on Saturday last, the victim being Mr Walter Mackie, brother of Mr Len Mackie of Frankston. The deceased was well known in this district, and was one of Frankston’s most prominent footballers three seasons ago. Mackie was in his usual health in the morning, and in the afternoon was engaged in playing football, and never appeared in better health or spirits. At one stage of the game he secured the ball and had a long run, after which he went back to his place in the field.
After standing a few minutes his knees seemed to give way, and he fell forward on his face, quite dead. The cause of his collapse was heart disease, and at the inquest the doctor expressed surprise that deceased had lived so long. The remains were interred in the Lang Lang cemetery on Tuesday last. A widow and family of three children are left to mourn their sad loss. *** FAREWELLING THE FRANKSTON VOLUNTEERS. The Frankston Mechanics Hall was taxed to its utmost capacity on Tuesday evening when between 400 and 500 residents and friends of local volunteers for the war assembled for the purpose of bidding them farewell prior to their departure. The hall was tastefully decorated with flags and on the stage several stands of rifles were stacked. The proceedings throughout were marked by the utmost enthusiasm, and as each volunteer had his watch strapped to his wrist the hall resounded with cheers. The brass band played several selections in front of the building commencing the programme by playing “God Save the King”. Dr Maxwell (chairman to the movement) then called upon Mr Bath, who sang ‘The Deathless Army.’ Mr Mat Elliot then gave a recitation, “The Relief of Kimberley,” in good style. “Womans Ways,” by Miss Ray Picking, was a nice contribution. M.C. Ellis was in good voice and joining heartily, in the chorus. Mr Fred Hinton then gave a number of his imitations, and was loudly applauded. Mr J. G.
Garrood gave a good rendering of the famous old song, “Death of Nelson”. The chairman then read the following telegrams: “Rialta, Melbourne - Regret retained on duty tonight so cannot attend send off. My best wishes to Frankston volunteers - Harold Grimwade.” “Mornington - sorry unable to be with you. God bless our troops. Au revoir from all at Mornington - Alfred Bates.” “Mornington - Wish boys au revoir. Good luck - Lou Harrison.” The chairman then explained the purpose of the meeting - to say farewell to the volunteers. Only those who have had actual experience with grim war with all its possibilities, can realise what our men are voluntarily facing. It is therefore the more to their credit that they are prepared to take the risk of never coining back (for they and their friends must take that risk). We who are remaining at home promise them that their welfare shall be in the keeping of our hearts. We trust that, having done their duty for their country, they will return and receive the right royal welcome which we shall prepare for them in this hall. We have read during a feverish month how a gallant fight has been put up by the allies, how British pluck and doggedness has in the past risen superior to difficulties and is providing material for future history. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 12 Sept, 1914.

Q SKIN CANCER
%HVW ZD\ WR ÀQG PHODQRPD The most effective way to detect skin cancer is through regular monitoring of your skin using the two step process of Mole mapping and Total Body Photography. This 2 step process enables the skin cancer doctor to detect changing moles and new moles, the clues to melanoma! Most melanomas appear as a new mole on the skin and when they are new, they usually have no unusual features that make them stand out. As they develop over time, they will become more irregular and eventually will look different to all your other spots. But, early detection of melanoma is vital to achieve a greater than 95% survival rate. Mole mapping consists of a thorough full body skin check from head to toe by doctors and nurses with advanced skin cancer training through the Skin Cancer College of Australia. During a Mole mapping appointment, photos are taken of each area of the body to establish a baseline for all your freckles and moles. Then close up photos are taken of individual moles for short term or long term digital comparison. Minor types of skin cancers are also detected during this skin check. This means that at the follow-up mole map appointment they are able to discover that new mole that you haven’t noticed or that normal looking mole that is slowly changing. Mole mapping usually takes one hour and costs $150 per hour with no Medicare rebate. No referral required, ring Frankston ph: 9770 0040 or Mornington ph: 5975 9544 for an appointment. And the best time to scan is now, early detection is your best defence.

Q REHABILITATION HOSPITAL
OUR RESULTS SPEAK FOR THEMSELVES Patients rank St John of God Frankston Rehabilitation Hospital number one Our hospital has been ranked the number one private rehabilitation hospital operator by our inpatients according to the latest independent Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey results. The Press Ganey Patient Satisfaction Survey is conducted annually and asks patients a number of questions about their entire hospital stay including the clinical management of their condition, rooms, meals, admission and discharge. Our hospital’s average inpatient score of 88.4 from 92 in patients who responded (a response rate of 60.5%) placed our hospital in the 99th percentile when benchmarked against other private rehabilitation hospitals. The results of our 2013 Australian Council of Healthcare clinical indicators showed that 99.2% of our patients return to accommodation equal to or greater than pre-episode
accommodation. This is 19.3% greater than the national average of 79.9% and 14% greater than the benchmark group average of 85.2%. The Australian Rehabilitation Outcome Centre (AROC) manages the collection and reporting of Functional Improvement Measures (FIM) across all Australian rehabilitation hospitals. The FIM measures a patient’s functional ability to carry out an activity independently versus their need for assistance from another person or a device. Patients functional ability is measured upon arrival and then again at discharge. Our hospital’s functional ability gain was 97.9% against a national standard of 95.9%. Our patients scored 1.2 points higher than other private rehabilitation hospitals nationally. For our patients this means that their ability to return to normal social activities such as bowling, golf or just walking along the beach is greater. If you would like to attend our hospital, please see your doctor for a referral.

Reminiscences of a mono king By Stuart McCullough AS a child, I did not want to be a fireman or an astronaut. Occupations such as stunt-man or cattle wrangler had no interest for me. Doctor, teacher or electrician: these meant nothing. All I wanted was to ride my bike better than anyone had ever ridden a bike before. It was no ordinary bicycle, but a Malvern Star dragster. A dragster, also known as a â&#x20AC;&#x153;long frame low riderâ&#x20AC;?, was the greatest bike ever built. In fact, they were the only bike in the world with a built-in slouch. The seat was as a long as a horseâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s face and sticking out of the frame was a gearbox. As important as my bike was to me, the gears were something of a mystery. Whether the gearbox did, in fact, do anything at all or was purely for decoration was never entirely clear. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s my firm view that, one year, the Tour de France should be conducted entirely on dragsters. There were no buses, trains or trams where we lived. It meant the only form of transport that didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t involve our parents was our bikes. We would take off up the gravel driveway at great speed, dodging potholes in an attempt to gather as much momentum as possible. Luckily, our driveway was around a kilometre long and riding from one end to the other was a source of near-endless fascination. Save for the odd sticker wrapped around its frame, my dragster was largely unadorned. Others, however, made all kinds of modifications. Chief among these was the addition of a
fluorescent orange flag attached to the seat. It would bob behind the rider like a bird as they pedalled furiously away. The other key alteration involved putting something between the spokes to create an engine-like roar. Of course, the results sounded less like an engine than they did a catâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s purr, but it allowed us to make believe our
bikes had been transformed into motorcycles. Motorbikes were, according to my father, only ridden by lunatics. My fatherâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s stridency was undermined by the fact that our favourite television show at the time was CHiPs, which stood for Californian Highway Patrol and starred Erik Estrada as Francis
â&#x20AC;&#x153;Ponchâ&#x20AC;? Poncherello and Larry Wilcox as â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jonâ&#x20AC;?. It was the kind of television show whose objective was largely magical in that it sought nothing more than to make an hour disappear. When I think about it now, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s remarkable how little seemed to occur. In Australia we had our own motorcycle-riding police officer in the form of Paul Cronin as Solo One. Set in the Dandenong Ranges, it only ran for 13 episodes during which Paul tried to figure out why he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t on Matlock Police anymore. Eventually, the era in which dragsters roamed the earth came to an end upon the introduction of the â&#x20AC;&#x153;bicycle motocrossâ&#x20AC;? better known as BMXâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. These bikes were not inspired by Jon, Ponch or even Paul Cronin, but by moto-cross motorbikes. The whole point of these bikes was to ride them at speed through terrain littered with obstacles. It suited us perfectly. Suddenly, our dragsters were as cool as the flared trousers we had once worn while riding them. From this point on, it was all about the BMX. You didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just ride a BMX bike. The bike was an extension of your body and you were expected to be able perform a range of stunts, such as the â&#x20AC;&#x153;bunny hopâ&#x20AC;? or the â&#x20AC;&#x153;pogoâ&#x20AC;?. However, by far the greatest thing you could do on a BMX was a â&#x20AC;&#x153;monoâ&#x20AC;?. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Pulling a monoâ&#x20AC;? involved using your weight to lean away from the handlebars, which lifted the front wheel and enabled you to ride on just the back wheel. Some may call such a
manoeuvre a â&#x20AC;&#x153;wheelieâ&#x20AC;?, but we knew it strictly as a mono. With a mono, much as with life itself, there is the risk you may overdo things and end up flat on your back for your troubles. My attempts were always doused in caution and, inevitably, my monos were quite feeble. I longed for more. We would see them on trips to the milk bar with our parents. Delinquents would gather as mosquitoes around a blue-light insect zapper, sitting astride their BMX bikes, nonchalantly necking choc-orange Big M and generally making a nuisance of themselves. Dressed in a duffel coat and desert boots, their leader would ride back and forth out the front of the milk bar, front tyre raised continuously in what seemed to be an everlasting mono. His chrome BMX shone like a new set of teeth and he seemed in control of so much more than just his bike. I envied him then. As to what happened to that guy, I couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say. Whether pulling a mono is as useful a skill as an adult is anyoneâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s guess. Heaven knows, we need him now â&#x20AC;&#x201C; bikes today are more popular than ever but thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s nary a mono to be seen. As for me, I think I preferred it when bikes were a means of escaping from your parents. Even now I can picture him, still out the front of the milk bar; older but steadfastly none the wiser, choc-orange Big M in hand. He remains in my mind untouched by the decades, forever the Mono King. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Performance HOT on the heels of a spectacular summer of sold-out concerts and rocking the opening of the Commonwealth Games before a worldwide audience of more than 1.5 billion viewers, Rod Stewart has announced that he will tour Australia in 2015. Frontier Touring announced nine concerts across Australia plus special outdoor concerts at Hope Estate in the Hunter Valley and the iconic Hanging Rock in Macedon. Notably Rod will be the first artist to have performed at Hanging Rock on multiple tours. With his shaggy blonde hair and satin pants Stewart strutted across the stage. Although he claims to be from Scotland, Stewart was born in North London and attended school with Ray Davies (The Kinks). Stewart said “I’m thrilled to be returning to Australia next year. The Australian audiences are some of the best in the world and I’m looking forward to being at my most Scottish for my first ever concert in Dunedin”. Stewart’s just completed summer tour was named by Rolling Stone and USA Today as one of the Hottest Tours of Summer with a hits including Maggie May, You Wear it Well, Hot Legs, Sailing, You’re in My Heart, Young Turks, Forever Young and many more hits. With his singular voice, narrative song-writing and passionate live performances, Rod Stewart has built one of the most successful and enduring music careers of all time. In a career spanning more than five decades, he has amassed sales of more than 200 million albums worldwide and has countless charttopping hits and industry accolades including two inductions into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In 2007, he was bestowed Commander of the British Empire (CBE) by the Queen of England. In May 2013, Stewart released Time, his first rock album in a dozen years, on Capitol Records. The album features 11 original tracks and marks Rod’s return to song writing after nearly two decades. Time entered the UK Albums Chart at No. 1, setting a new British record for the longest gap between chart-topping albums by an artist and in the US, it
By Gary Turner
marked Stewart’s highest-charting album of original material since 1979. In addition to touring, Stewart headlines one of Las Vegas’ most critically and commercially successful residencies at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Joining Rod on the tour is local legend James Reyne. Performing hits from both Australian Crawl and his extensive solo career, James is no stranger to the top of the charts, selling in excess of 2 million albums since 1979 and boasting hits such as Reckless, Boys Light Up and Motor’s Too Fast. James Reyne will set the vibe for a massive night of back to back hits from both artists. Tickets to see Rod Stewart ‘The Hits’ Tour go on sale on Tuesday 16 September. Visit www.frontiertouring.com/rodstewart for more details. *** UK music fans welcomed singer Kate Bush for her first concert in 35 years last month. A sell-out crowd filled London’s Hammersmith Apollo, the final venue on her only live tour in 1979. Bush and her back singers, includ-
ing 16 year old son Bertie, opened with her 1993 song, Lily. Other songs included Babooshka, Breathing, Wuthering Heights, Running Up That Hill and Hounds of Love. All 80,000 tickets for the 56 years old’s 22 shows sold out in 15 minutes. *** HE sings, dances, writes songs, plays guitar, piano, horns, and his music has conquered the world. Prince (real name Prince Rogers Nelson) has been compared to Jimi Hendrix for his appearance and guitar playing skills, Michael Jackson for his record sales and statue and David Bowie for his sexual outrageousness. It has been five years since Prince put out a record and now he is planning to release two at the same time. “Plectrumelectrum’ and ‘Art Official Age’ will be release next month in conjunction with a series of special events. *** JOHNNY Cash the Man in Black is coming to the Mornington Peninsula and the two hour show will open for one night only at the Frankston Performing
Arts Centre on Saturday September 13. Featuring Daniel Thompson, Golden Guitar winner Stuie French, The Tennessee Studs and Golden Guitar winner, Tamara Stewart. Bookings 5559 4999 or www.artscentre.frankston.vic.gov.au *** LED Zeppelin’s Whole Lotta Love has been voted the greatest guitar riff of all time. The 1969 rock classic beat a list of 100 guitar riffs drawn up by DJs, critics and record producers. Sweet Child O’Mine, by Guns N’Roses, was second with Back in Black (AC/DC) and Smoke on the Water (Deep Purple) third and fourth. Led Zeppelin guitarist Jimmy Page said “I was knocked out by the win. I wanted a riff that really moved, that people would really get. When l played it with the band, it went into overdrive.” Led Zeppelin began in 1968, when the Yardbirds disbanded and Jimmy Page quickly formed a new band with John Paul Jones, John Bonham and Robert Plant called the New Yardbirds and settled down in London. Following a re-
with the odd crook, alongside bosses who wanted to punish all unfortunates. Small by comparison but the multiplier effect applies in relation to their positions of power. *** I watch Eggheads ABC weeknights. Quiz contestants commenting before answering, “possibly not my strongest point” or “not my area of expertise”. Please, ask them: “What is your strongest point?” or “What is your area of expertise?” The same on Eddie’s Hot Seat. There’s nothing wrong with not knowing; stop making excuses! Breaking Bad wins the best drama series at the Emmy Awards? Boring. Worse still Bryan Cranston wins best actor, the man who has a 10 second pause between each line. Give me strength! Fargo the best easily, and Martin Freeman. Most of the rest way below the standard of Miss Marple and Death in Paradise. ABC satire Utopia, almost destroyed by Anthony Lehmann (pretending to act and trying to be funny?) saved by the lovely work from Celia Pacquola. *** Minister for Education Marty Dixon and his flyer of achievements; Dromana, Sorrento, Rosebud, Flinders, Merricks and Men’s Sheds; good work Marty. Rye appears to be a forgotten part of any handouts. Call it “Project 3941”? Our shopkeepers say they are struggling
and need marketing. Not the owners; they’re busy increasing the rents. Three vacant shops, and who can blame them? Mornings at Maggies for coffee inspired by the cultural depth of the artistically painted wooden dolphin across the road. Maybe add an injured wooden magpie Marty? *** It never surprises me what comes out of Joe Hockey’s mouth - “increases to the fuel excise wouldn’t hurt the poor because they don’t drive cars”. It’s not as if Joe meant it the way it came out; more a case of Joe being above his station in life. A well meaning sort of average Joe who regularly shoots from the hip, sometimes a fair distance from his brain. I remember Joe crying “enough” of politics after Kevvy Rudd got in. You have to wonder if all those financial warnings (dire straights, increased taxes) from Joe, Mathias Corman and Christopher Pyne hits home with voters. Surely we are aware of tax concessions setups; superannuation dodges obviously, and capital gains? *** Melbourne may well have come in first as the world’s most liveable city, but it’s a question of who voted for this rubbish. Conde Nast Traveller? Denny Napthine to get his two bob’s worth in. “Low crime rate, great health system, ditto road and rail”? I assume it’s applicable
only to those living within a 5 kilometre radius of the CBD. Looking at this result from a Mornington Peninsula P/O/V (lack of access to public transport, unemployment, expensive rental housing, services generally) we see the difference. Paris rated badly-which underlines this rubbish. *** SAGAS: 1/ Red Hill councillor Tim Wood, navy commander, Queens Counsel, retired County Court Judge and against spending $40 million on the foreshore pool proposition. So it ends, as expected. I quite liked the designs for the Aquatic Centre, but a 25 metre pool was never on. 2/ If only half the evidence coming from the royal commission into union corruption pertaining to Health Services Union whistle-blower Kathy Jackson proves conclusive, one can only wonder why the lady blew the whistle in the first place. Better than Peyton Place. Keep punching Kathy. *** There are many mysteries in this life we lead, but surely none so great as the mystery of why a man should want to witness the birth of his child? *** The Collingwood members summit was a smokescreen with double-talk the main course. The courage required to stand up and speak the truth with Pert, Buckley, Davoren and particularly mes-
mark by Who drummer Keith Moon to the effect that they would ‘go down like a lead balloon’; the band adopted the name Led Zeppelin. In September 1980, just before Zeppelin were to set off on a major US tour, John Bonham was found dead after a 12 hour drinking spree. The band released a statement to the effect that they were unable to carry on without the drummer. The band lay low for a few years and reformed in 1985 for a Live Aid concert with Phil Collins on drums. In 1988 Jason Bonham, son of John played on drums at Atlantic Records’ 40th anniversary. Other top rated riffs were Layla by Derek and the Dominoes, Pretty Vacant, by the Sex Pistols, and Enter Sandman by Metallica….. *** MT Eliza singer/songwriter, Lachlan Bryan (pictured with his band The Wildes) has been nominated for awards at the Australian Independent Country Music Awards. The former Peninsula School student, won a Golden Guitar at the Tamworth Country Music Festival in January for Best Alternative Country album. Lachlan said “I am thrilled to be nominated and this is my second trip to Mildura and l believe these awards a very representative of the Australian country music scene and l am honoured to be nominated alongside such great artists as Allan Caswell and Luke O’Shea.” Lachlan will spend time with his parents, Duncan and Madeleine Bryan in Mt Eliza before embarking on a US tour next month, covering 16 states which include 21 shows commencing in Dallas, Texas. The ‘Black Coffee Tour’ is Lachlan’s second US tour as his new album Black Coffee hits US radio this week. www. lachlandbryan.com
A Grain of Salt Spring and Father’s Day; my last? Barring a definite medical opinion we naturally assume we have another 20 or so years left, conveniently ignoring all those we knew along the journey who disappeared at a younger age. Do we all agree the pursuit of pleasure is the bottom line, whatever the form, whatever your time in life? If you don’t you’re not reading this column. Possibly a nitwit? At my age I’m forced to cling tooth and nail to what’s left of my rapidly advancing years; seemingly one after another being ripped away amidst obscurity and renouncing all concern for name and glory. Is watching re-runs of Midsommer Murders a pursuit of pleasure? Is not buying green bananas being over cautious? Can I hold out until 2017 when Collingwood appoints a new coach? Illusion is the first of all pleasures. *** I’m considering attending a spiritual retreat; good for the soul, being conscious of being aware? Reading newspapers puts my outlook into perspective-lucky to live in Australia. Unless of course you’re one of those 44 refugees incarcerated for years without charge and not allowed to know the details of the secret ASIO assessments used to justify their detention. We want to live in peace but sadly we live amongst some nasty bastards. I recall the early 1970‘s working in Bankruptcy; mostly honest bankrupts

Sharks storm into grand final NEPEAN LEAGUE
By Toe Punt SORRENTO marched into the Nepean League grand final on Saturday with a stirring victory over Crib Point in the second semi final. Scores were locked together at 9.9 (63) at three quarter time at Hastings’ Thomas Barclay Oval, however Sorrento stepped up a gear in the final quarter and went on to win 16.13 (109) to 13.9 (87). The loss sees Crib Point play Rye in this weekend’s preliminary final after the Demons smashed Dromana on Sunday. In Saturday’s game, for the second week in succession, Myles Pitt booted six goals for the winners, while Leigh Poholke made it 86 goals for the season with another haul of four. The Sharks’ ability to play on big grounds was questioned going into the match, given they had lost to Hastings and Red Hill on their big grounds. However, Sorrento was the team that was full of running when it mattered most in the last quarter. The Sharks rammed home seven goals to four, highlighting that they are in tip top shape leading into yet another grand final. Grand finals are becoming a habit for the red and white and it wasn’t lost on coach Troy Schwarze. “I keep telling the blokes that grand finals don’t come easily but I think there’s some of them that don’t quite believe me anymore,” said Schwarze. “It’s been a pretty good period for the club but we are under no illusions about where our season sits right now. “The job is only half done and there’s a lot of preparation that needs to go into the next couple of weeks. “We’ll have a light night on Tuesday but we’ll really start cranking things up after that.” Last season, Sorrento limped into the grand final after a tough campaign and were blown away by Dromana in the big dance. Schwarze believes his team is in far better shape this season. “Look, we needed to get the week off last season but didn’t and it really took a toll on us,” said Schwarze. “This season, while you like to get the break, we’re in far greater shape than we have been in the past. We’re pretty fresh and I reckon the way we’ve run out games has proven that. “Crib Point is a great footy team and they showed on Saturday that their best is devastating, but I was pretty happy with the way we responded and maintained the pressure for four quarters,” said Schwarze. Troy himself was clearly the best player on the ground, playing in the middle, as opposed to his usual role at half-back. His brother Ben played across halfback again and while not as dominant as last week, played his role. James Hallahan played on a wing for the majority of the match. Kayle Stringer-Morris was back into the team and at his best after missing last week with hamstring tightness and Tyrren Head was a fine contributor. Crib Point wasn’t as clean with the footy as the Sharks and this was the reason they went down. Players who usually hold marks were dropping them and their execution wasn’t a good as usual. It will be good for the Pies to get a

final out of the way. Jon Flack really did keep the Pies in the game with five goals while Glenn Boyd booted three and probably should have finished with another three. On Sunday, Rye continued its devastating form and belted Dromana 19.14 (128) to 8.11 (59). The Demons were sensational from the first bounce to the final siren, showing too much system, run and commitment for the Tigers. Other than a ten minute period in the first quarter, Dromana looked tired, sore and, to be honest, mentally out of
season 2014. They went into the game without Terry Wheeler (broken hand), Andy Kiely (groin) and Anthony Bruhn (back), while Stuart Cleeve and Michael Falconer didn’t play for the majority of the season. Bruhn and Wheeler are their two best players. Steven Gaertner looked injured and only lasted a half and Paul Minchington knocked himself out in the first quarter and struggled from that point on. Rye went into the clash without in and under midfielder Braeden Dennis, who was interstate for personal
reasons. Matt Dunn hurt his leg in the third quarter and will be unlikely to come up for the preliminary final, leaving Dennis to come back in. On Saturday, in his 198th game for Rye, skipper Rhett Sutton dominated and Ryan Semmel was simply sensational. His work in and under and on the outside left supporters and spectators speechless. He is as good as I’ve seen on the peninsula in 25 years covering local footy. The defence was again superb, led by the likes of Adam Kirkwood, Leigh Morse, Ryan Taylor and Chris Gleeson. Matty Sibberas totally shut
out Toby Banks after he got off the chain early, while Anthony Joel again played a vital role. In attack, the Demons were also dangerous. Brady Egan, Aaron Findlay and Ben Holmes presented all afternoon and Benny WintersKerr made a nuisance of himself. The opposition latched on hook, line and sinker. Rye have always been attractive on paper. I’ve always predicted their best is better than anyone else. They now understand how to go about bringing their best every week.

Stonecats cruise into big dance PENINSULA LEAGUE
Dizzying heights: Despite this great grab, Dromana did not have what it took to win the day, going down to Rye by 69 points. Picture: Andrew Hurst
brilliant at that. The Stonecats had winners all over the ground, none more than Scott McLeod and Billy Rolfe. Their run, second efforts and ball skills were a highlight of the match. Dave Bodley booted seven goals in the first half and really had the better of Anthony Raso and Jason Gumbleton. Jason Ferraro became the third opponent in the second half and restricted him to four behinds. Ferraro was the obvious choice to go to Bodley much sooner than he did. Ben Buckley got a lot of the footy and Lachy Wallace was also in and among it. It was much harder to find a group of good players at Bonbeach. The half-back line was tireless. Jackson Casey and Gary Carpenter were outstanding. After the match, YCW coach Scott Mathers agreed that it was “almost” the complete performance. “Look, when you go into a game with the best ruckman in the league (Eames) and they don’t have any ruckmen, things are going to be tough for the opposition. Ash needed to take advantage of the situation and he did, giving us first use of the footy all day,” said Mathers. “When you have the footy in your hands, you control the game and Eames gave us that opportunity more times than not.” YCW was penalised in the third quarter when it was realised that Matt Hogan was not on the team sheet. Hogan was subsequently ordered to stay off the field. Logic prevailed though and it was deemed a simple administrative mess up and he was able to come onto the field. “It was pretty tough at the time
By Toe Punt FRANKSTON YCW continued its domination of the 2014 Peninsula League season with a dominant performance against Bonbeach in the second semi final. The Stonecats stormed into the Peninsula League grand final with a 15.15 (105) to 11.4 (70) victory. Bonbeach will now face Mornington in the preliminary final after the Doggies overcame reigning premiers Edithvale-Aspendale by 28 points. The scoreboard was a true reflection of the match. The Stonecats dominated from the first bounce and given its 30 scoring shots to 15, should have won the contest by a lot more. Bonbeach went into the game without a recognised ruckman, given the fact that Dylan Jones and James Norton were both out of the side. The Sharks were also missing Rob Horler and Brad Sykes, who have both been outstanding contributors for Bonbeach this season. The Stonecats brought four players back into their lineup for the match, including Dale Carroil and Ricky Morris. While Morris didn’t have a big impact on the game, Carroll was superb at both ends of the ground. The lack of genuine talls for Bonbeach gave Ash Eames the opportunity to dominate the contest, and he did just that. Eames would have taken close to 20 marks, the majority of which were across half-back. Anthony ‘Bundy’ Barry wasn’t selected because of an aductor strain, which meant the defenders needed a hand. Eames has always been
because it really hurt our rotations and blokes were starting to cramp up,” said Mathers. “I think common sense prevailed though because it wasn’t like we were playing an unregistered player or a player who didn’t qualify. “We simply left Bundy’s name on the team sheet as to not give too much away prior to the game. We just didn’t replace him with Hogan before lodging the paperwork.” Frankston YCW will be having no easy time on the track in the lead up to the grand final. “It will be hard work and business as usual,” said Mather. “It’s important the guys’ minds remain on the job at hand. Changing things or giving them light nights etc won’t help anyone. “We have started our finals campaign positively, however the job is only half done,” said Mathers. On Sunday, Mornington booted four goals to one in the third quarter to set-up a 10.14 (74) to 6.10 (46) win over Edithvale-Aspendale. Scores were locked together at 4.7 apiece at half time before Mornington took control. Dale Nolan booted five goals in a best on ground performance for the Dogs while Jai Haddock and James Halsall starred. Mark Mullins and Tim Mannix were the best of the Eagles, while Tim Mavric, who has been hammered by injury this season, was also outstanding. The Dogs beat Bonbeach in round three by 43 points at home before losing to them in round ten by 32 points. There is no doubt that the open spaces of Frankston Park this Sunday will suit the Doggies.
Ground flooding fails to alter final plans By Toe Punt POLICE are investigating a break in at Hastings’ Thomas Barclay Reserve that resulted in the ground being found under water last Thursday morning. Hastings Football Club officials arrived at the ground on Thursday to find the sprinkler system on and the ground flooded. It is believed that someone who had
access to keys to the ground and the club’s sprinkler system was responsible. Police have said that the sprinkler system was tampered with at 9pm on Wednesday night. This information was sourced from the computer system of the sprinkler system. There were plenty of conspiracy theories going around late in the week as to who may have turned the sprinklers on.
Hastings legend and committee member Kevin Miles said whoever did it knew exactly what they were doing. “First of all, they had access to the ground and the sprinkler system. Secondly, they knew how to manipulate the sprinkler system,” Miles said. “Now, I’m no expert but I think only a small number of people have access to keys etc. There could be others but

there wouldn’t be too many people who would have access,” said Miles. The other interesting thing to consider was that there were some clubs who did not want the finals played at Hastings. Some clubs had even written to the league requesting that the venue be changed. When the league was advised on Thursday morning that the ground was under water, the response was “the

game is going to be played at Hastings, regardless of the condition of the ground”. As it turned out, the ground came up very well. “Whoever put the sprinklers on probably did us a favour because it took the hardness out of the deck,” said Miles. There is CCTV footage of the culprit and police will continue to investigate.
