Potter protests continue By Liz Bell and Keith Platt A PUBLIC meeting organised by the Save Our Briars protest group and attended by about 200 people has called for the Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience event to be moved away from the wildlife sanctuary. Pressure for Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to relocate the months long nightly event away from The Briars wildlife sanctuary continued this week with protests at Tuesday’s council meeting at Rosebud. Louise Page said the protesters wanted answers to some of the missing details around the secrecy of council’s decision to back the event. “Why was The Briars master plan - which states that wildlife sanctuary is a place for “quiet reflection”, walks and animal observation - not adhered to?” However, it is believed shifting the venue at this stage could see the shire sued for breach of contract by the event’s producers, Warner Bros. Discovery Global Themed Entertainment in partnership with Fever and IMG. Possibly the biggest single event ever held on the peninsula, the shire says Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience “will unlock significant lasting benefits, both for The Briars and the Mornington Peninsula more broadly” (Potter sequel at the ballot box, The News 29/1/24). The shire’s website also provides links to buy tickets. On Monday morning a petition at change.org calling on the shire to not hold the event in The Briars sanctuary contained more than 20,600 signatures. A councillor, who did not wish to be identified, said “40,000 to 50,000” tickets had been sold for the Harry Potter show. The mayor Cr Simon Brooks was almost shouted down when he told last week’s public meeting at Mornington Yacht Club that councillors had not seen the fine details of the contract with Warner Bros and could not reveal what they did know because of the confidentiality agreement signed by most councillors. Brooks said confidentiality clauses were common in council matters that included intellectual property, and particularly when commercial in-confidence was required. He said community unrest over the Harry Pot-

ABOUT 200 people attended a community meeting last Monday week to hear more about the Save our Briars opposition to the Harry Potter: A Forbidden Experience event. Picture: Yanni ter event being held within the fenced wildlife sanctuary at The Briars had seen some councillors pushing for a “review” of the shire’s events approval process. “I share your frustrations with the way the conversation has occurred,” Brooks said, in reference to the secrecy around the contract. He also said that when council officers considered the proposal, financial benefit had been the “elephant in the room”, because council had to consider “new and innovative” ways to ensure the sustainability of The Briars.

The 3000-person a night event is expected to be a financial windfall for the council, despite councillors apparently not being privy to those details. Mornington MP Chris Crewther told the meeting he believed it would be a great event but was being held in the “wrong” location. Peninsula environmentalist and newly awarded OAM recipient Gidja Walker doubted that 3000 people a night would not lead to visitors straying from the paths and causing environmental and ecological damage. She also questioned the legitimacy of any

ecological assessments done before the contract was signed with Warner Bros, given that the short turnaround between the council being approached mid last year and approval being given by the end of the year. “If you want to remove vegetation and get a proper ecological assessment done, it takes about a year, sometimes more,” she said. “I can’t see how this can have been done properly”. The event requires 18 sheds, two kilometres of cabling for lighting, sound effects and electronic figures, a portable toilets and generators.

Liberals add reserve to by-election issues

A FRESH push for the decommissioned water reservoir in Kunyung Road Mount Eliza to be protected from development and kept as community space has begun in the lead up to the Dunkley by-election. Mornington MP Chris Crewther, shadow minister James Newbury, South Eastern Centre for Sustainability president Steve Karakitsos and Ian Morrison, of Mount Eliza, visited the site on Tuesday 23 January. The MP and candidate had earlier inspected the Beleura cliff path at Mornington which has been closed because of landslides (‘Spy cameras’ on wrong track, The News 30/1/24). The South East Water reservoir land has been handed to the Department of Infrastructure and Transport and is in the midst of a process to either transfer its ownership or to be sold. Crewther - the former MP for Dunkley who was defeated after one term by Labor’s Peta Murphy who died last December - said there was

an opportunity to keep the land for the public or put it in philanthropic hands as a public-access ephemeral wetlands and reserve, similar to the decommissioned Frankston Reservoir. Crewther said the land also acted as a drainage sink during wet weather or flooding. “The alternative may be selling off the site to a private developer for up to 40 homes, which residents are strongly opposed to,” he said. Crewther said the “the best and easiest result” would be for the land to be transferred to Parks Victoria along with a minimum $1 million from state and or federal governments for basic rehabilitation. He said it “it may be something that could be committed to as part of the Dunkley byelection”. The 2.8 hectare site at 57 Kunyung Road has some bay views. In 2022 Mornington Peninsula Shire Council passed up the opportunity to express an interest to buy the site “for a community use”.

Promise to revive rail extension THE Liberal Party has promised to spend $900 million to electrify the rail link from Frankston to Baxter if it wins government. Opposition leader Peter Dutton made the pledge in Frankston on Friday as part of the campaign by the Liberal Party’s Dunkley by-election candidate, Frankston mayor Nathan Conroy. The planned electrification and duplication of the Stony Point line from Frankston to Baxter was abandoned by the federal government after an infrastructure review last year. A business case has estimated it would cost $1.5 billion to electrify and duplicate the train line to

Baxter. Dutton said having diesel trains running on a single line “is just not right”. “When we give a commitment we deliver on it. We made a promise to fund this project, we are going to fund it, and we are relying on a state government that will see this area as a priority,” he said. Meanwhile, Frankston Council has made a list of alternative projects which could be paid for by the $225 million cut from the abandoned rail extension by the federal government. The Dunkley by-election will be held on 2 March. with the next federal election expected in 2025.

Facing up to climate change

RICKI Lee Bryant says there are no excuses for dumping cats. Picture: Supplied

Dumping a problem for cats and wildlife EYEWITNESS accounts of cats and kittens being dumped on the Mornington Peninsula have alarmed animal welfare bodies and environmental advocates, who say cats living wild wreak havoc on nature. There are also fears for the safety and welfare of the dumped cats, thought to be released pets, which would most likely struggle to survive in a strange environment. There have been at least three recent sightings of people dumping cats on the peninsula, including a black car seen releasing two caged cats in bush in Wooralla Drive, Mount Eliza. Two

other cases involved a black car seen dumping up for four cats near Crib Point, one of which was immediately hit and killed by a car as it frantically ran across the road, and two cats dumped near Hastings. Mornington Moggie Rescue volunteer Ricki Lee Bryant, of Tyabb, said cat dumping was abhorrent and cruel, with domesticated cats having few skills to survive in an unfamiliar place without food, and being vulnerable to predators and traffic. She is urging people who can no longer care for their cats to seek out animal welfare groups or rescues

groups, which will take unwanted cats without judgement. “There is no excuse for dumping a cat, it cause enormous environmental damage and is unbelievably cruel to the animal,” Bryant said. Mornington Moggie Rescue is just one of several groups on the peninsula that will take in unwanted or stray animals. Others are RSPCA Peninsula: rspca-peninsula; Peninsula Cat Rescue: peninsulacatrescue.com.au; Mornington Peninsula Shire Council pound: mornpen.vic.gov.au; Mornington Moggie rescue: morningtonmoggierescue@gmail.com Liz Bell

COMMUNITY group Peninsula Voice is holding a public meeting to discuss the detrimental effects and ways of combating climate change. “Worldwide, there is significant concern and confusion about climate change. On the Mornington Peninsula, we’re seeing changes in our climate and our natural environment impacting our health and wellbeing,” Peninsula Voice convenor Peter Orton said. “Coastal erosion is really just the tip of the iceberg. We’re naturally worried about how the peninsula is being impacted, and we also want action before it’s too late.” Orton said temperatures in Victoria had risen 1.2 degrees Celsius since 1910, cool season rainfall had declined while the number of days with dangerous weather conditions for bushfires had increased. Longer fire seasons, rising sea levels and more extreme rain events were predicted over the coming decade across Australia. “The peninsula has seen an increased frequency and intensity of storms with the resultant damage to property, businesses and the environment, especially to our coastline,” Orton said. “In addition to environmental, social and economic impacts, our health is also impacted directly by climate change due to more intense and frequent extreme events including heatwaves, floods, drought and bushfires. It also affects health indirectly,

such as through deteriorating air quality, changes in the spread of infectious diseases, risks to food safety and drinking and recreational water quality, and mental ill health.” Orton said many groups within the community were “highly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, so protecting them is an important priority”. “Much is already being done to address climate change but there is more we must do.” Orton said the public meeting would hear from experts on the environment, our economy and health, and from “some of the many groups and individuals taking action and making a real difference locally”. One of the groups at the meeting included Repower, which helped households and businesses “to get off fossil fuels and repower with 100 per cent renewable energy”. Another speaker would Sam Lundberg, who works with schools to become emissions neutral. “There are some fantastic local initiatives we’ll be showcasing at this event as we want our community to feel both informed and empowered,” Orton said. The Peninsula Voice Thursday 29 February meeting to discuss climate change starts at 6.30pm at the Peninsula Community Theatre, 91 Wilsons Road, Mornington. Details: peninsulavoice.com.au

DISABILITY social enterprise Sages Cottage Farm, Baxter, is joining forced with Melbourne Event Group to transform the 15 hectare farm which is run by 100 young people with disabilities - into a wedding venue. The Baxter farm, run by not-for-profit Wallara, has manicured rose gardens, a rustic cafe, vegetable gardens and farm animals. Wallara’s CEO and father of a child with intellectual disability Phil Hayes-Brown said the vision with Sages Cottage Farm was to create Australia’s most inclusive farm. This is now open to the public daily and receives more than 10,000 visitors. “We know the rustic farm is perfectly suited to weddings and events and so we really wanted a partner who gets our inclusion vision,” he said. “MEG is that partner and we are so excited to have one of the best event and catering teams in Melbourne partner with us.” Wallara is a disability support agency which supports more than 600 adults across Melbourne’s southeast and north.

RSL spokesman Bruce Turner said it was a blow to see the piece of art damaged, which was a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made by all people who have served in the armed forces. He said the damage was likely inflicted by a “disgruntled” community member, rather than someone with a political motive. “The community in general has respected the statue and the RSL,” Turner said. The damage was not permanent, and the carving has been cleaned and reinstalled on a new block. To keep it safe, it was moved 150 metres by a crane to another part of the block, near the Flame of Remembrance.

Mt Eliza connection to missing Colombian

DARRYL Donaldson says beach access through foreshore vegetation is a right. Picture: Yanni

Foreshore fury over ‘goat’ track A FURORE over foreshore access has highlighted the divide between conservation and public right of use. A recent decision by the foreshore committee at Capel Sound to prevent “goat tracks” being used for people to access the beach has upset some nearby residents. Eighty-two-year-old Darryl Donaldson, who lives on Point Nepean Road, said he and a few neighbours had come to enjoy immediate access to the beach for “decades” by using tracks through the bush. He did not believe the tracks were causing any damage to the delicate coastal bush environment, where they had existed for up to 50 years. Foreshore committee spokesperson Travis Graham disagrees. Having been in the job for 12 months, he and his crew are focused on restoring the natural coastal habitat and remedying the damage caused by people trampling the bush. “Yes, there are people who believe they can do

what they want, but I’d like them to understand we have to protect what’s here and do our best to restore what’s already been lost,” he said. “This is a delicate area. There are some people who think they are using paths, but they are walking through natural coastal bush, they are trampling sensitive habitats.” Graham said the 3.8 kilometres of foreshore area was home to native orchids and other flora and fauna that were at risk from losing their “corridors” if people did not obey the rules. “There are several nearby designated access points which we point people to, but they don’t want to have to walk,” he said. “It’s a challenge to keep people out, but the areas some people are using is through a nature reserve, not a public access path.” Graham said the committee had made a concerted effort to give people easy access to the beach and had approved two paths within 30 and 200 metres of the “goat” track now being used.

A MOUNT Eliza man, 49, is one of two people charged with murder over the suspicious disappearance of Colombian national Sergio Cuesta. The man has been remanded in custody to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on 24 April. Warrants were executed at properties in Mount Eliza and Cranbourne shortly after 2pm on Tuesday, 30 January. Three firearms, a pill press, various quantities of what appear to be dried cannabis and cocaine, cannabis crops, a crossbow and a conducted energy device were seized from the Mount Eliza address. A 48-year-old Cranbourne man also interviewed by police has been released pending further inquiries. The charge follows the disappearance more than four months ago of 28-year-old Sergio Cuesta. On Sunday (4 February), a Flagstone man, 25, was also charged with murder after arriving at Melbourne Airport the previous day on a flight from Queensland. He faced the Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Monday (5 February). Cuesta was last seen about 8.15pm on 16 September 2023 when he was dropped off by a male friend in Jabiru Drive, Chelsea Heights. A female friend reported his disappearance to police on 21 September after she hadn’t heard from him in several days. Cuesta’s disappearance was deemed to be suspicious and is being investigated by detectives from the Missing Persons Squad. Before his disappearance, he had been living in an apartment on Queens Road and was subject

to an expired student visa. He was also on bail in relation to drug offences and was known to have contact with people suspected of being involved in drug trafficking. Detectives are keen to speak to anyone with information about Cuesta’s movements in the lead up to his disappearance. Cuesta had also spent some time in Queensland in the weeks leading up to his disappearance and police are keen to speak to anyone living there who may have information about his disappearance or why he travelled interstate. He is described as being about 170cm tall with a solid build and dark hair. At the time he was last seen, he was wearing a black t-shirt, black pants and black sneakers. Anyone with any information regarding his disappearance is urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential crime report at crimestoppersvic.com.au Liz Bell

Nets can trap wildlife GARDENERS are being urged to use wildlifefriendly netting when trying to protect their backyard crops, as wildlife carers and authorities report a spike in animal injuries and deaths from entanglements over summer. The Conservation Regulator has issued a warning about the dangers illegal netting poses to native wildlife, such as birds, bats, and possums, and are reminding household growers that they must use safe, compliant (preferably white) fruit netting with mesh no bigger than 5mm by 5mm. Users of illegal netting face on-the-spot fines of $384 while sellers can be fined $769.

Challenge taken for hospital PENINSULA Health’s call for the community to participate in its FEB 50 Challenge to raise money for Rosebud Hospital was answered loud and clear when it kicked off last Thursday (1 February). The FEB 50 Challenge encourages participants to walk, run, ride or choose the activity they prefer to complete 50 kilometres in February. The campaign started last week with a Peninsula Health-coordinated five kilometre walk from Rosebud Hospital to Rosebud pier and back. Rosebud Hospital is part of Peninsula Health, the major public health service providing healthcare for Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula.

The art experiences continue throughout the city… Frankston's Street Art Festival - The Big Picture Fest and Street Arts Tours have both been shortlisted for the 2023 Australian Street Art Awards. Winners are announced soon… The cultural celebrations don’t stop there – mark your calendar for the epic Waterfront Festival on Saturday, February 10, and Sunday, February 11. In the lead up to the festival, Betty’s Burgers will be kicking off the Festival weekend with an unforgettable Beach Movie ‘Dive-In’ right on the Waterfront on Friday 9 February. And then immerse yourself in two days of live music featuring a great line-up including Touch Sensitive, The Grogans and Horns of Leroy, delectable food and drink, family-friendly rides and amusements, and free activities for the kids. The crescendo of the festival is, of course, the eagerly anticipated fireworks lighting up the Saturday night sky. February in Frankston is not just a month; it's a sensory symphony and a canvas of cultural wonders waiting to be explored.

The hospital has one acute and one rehabilitation ward and a 24-hour emergency department at the main entrance on Point Nepean Road. The hospital site encompasses renal dialysis, community, mental and allied health services, as well as dental clinics and a rehabilitation service. It is adjacent to Peninsula Health’s Cancer and Clinical Trials Hub, also on Point Nepean Road, where six chemotherapy chairs are located. The hospital admits and treats about 2000 people annually. The number of emergency department presentations averages 20,000 a year, around 1700 each month. This figure can jump significantly in summer when many

holiday makers visit the area. To donate to the cause, go to feb50challenge.raisely.com/ There is also a community-driven fundraiser for the hospital redevelopment. Organisers of the Rosebud Hospital rally held on Wednesday 24 January are hoping the large turnout of community members will convince politicians, business entities and philanthropic donors to support the redevelopment of the hospital. One of the organisers, Jo Gilbert, said the turnout had been a massive show of support for the hospital and backed the argument for the need to keep it in the local community.

Firefighter shows skills from sea to snow NO MATTER if she is near or far from home, 21-year-old Kristin Blight is willing to jump on the truck when the need arises. Following in the footsteps of her dad, Blight is a Rosebud firefighter who came up through the Boneo junior ranks. From June to September 2023, her CFA volunteerism stretched even further when she headed to Mount Buller for the snow season and had the opportunity to join the local brigade while working there. “Shortly after I arrived at Mount Buller for the season, Commander Paul Scragg was doing a walk through our building with the brigade captain, so I thought I’d introduce myself. They invited me to go down to the station for training,” Blight said. “It was a lot of fun and my brigade back home said to give it a go. It was an amazing experience to work with the people up there - they were so welcoming. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone who is traveling a lot and is still keen to maintain their skills, meet new people and experience something different. “It was really hard leaving the Mount Buller members. They’ve already invited me to go back to the brigade when I return to the snow this year.” Across the three months, Blight was exposed to incidents that starkly contrasted to those faced at Rosebud. “The main difference was obviously working with snow and ice because I’m so used to responding to incidents

CLEARING snow from a windscreen is not one of the firefighting skills Kristin Blight is usually called on to perform for her role at Rosebud CFA. Picture: Supplied in drier conditions or wet days,” she said. “Instead of road accidents and house fires, I was responding to apartment alarm calls where I learned a lot about switchboards and the different protectors in buildings. “The terrain was also very challenging, with a few accidents on the hill and down the winding roads. Some cars would end up on the side

of the road in the trees, so we had to navigate that.” Leading from the front as a young CFA volunteer, Blight was grateful she was able to continue serving the Victorian community while away for work. She encourages new, emerging members to embrace the wisdom of brigade superiors. “I will always advocate for CFA and

the inclusive environment that comes with it, and if you’re wanting to join, just go for it,” Blight said. “Get involved and listen to your superiors around you, especially the older members who’ve been in the brigade for more than 50 years, because they have a wealth of knowledge and they love sharing it.”

Death, rescues at Rye, Cape Schanck IT was a horror weekend in the water on the Mornington Peninsula, with two deaths in Rye and people swept off rocks at Cape Schanck. Police will prepare a report for the coroner following the death of a man at Rye pier on Saturday (3 February) morning. Emergency services were called following reports that a scuba diver had been pulled from the water about 10am. It is understood the man was found unconscious in the water by other scuba divers, but he could not be resuscitated. Emergency services are searching for a swimmer who is still missing at Rye after being caught in a rip on Sunday 4 February. Emergency services were called to 16th Beach on Sunday night after reports a man was missing in the water. Police said the man had been swimming with friends when they were caught in a rip about 7pm. Two people managed to make it to shore but the 20-year-old man was reported missing. The police Air Wing, Lifesaving Victoria and Ambulance Victoria searched the area Sunday night, but the man is yet to be found. Eight people also had to be rescued after they were swept off rocks near Cape Schanck, on Sunday afternoon. Ambulance Victoria said two teenagers were taken to Frankston Hospital in a stable condition with lower body injuries. Six other people were assessed but did not require hospital treatment.

NO ONE’S UNSINKABLE To all those Unsinkable Guys out there – You might think it’s safe to have a few drinks around water, skip the life jacket when you’re out on the boat or go for a swim without checking the conditions. But statistics prove that 4 out of 5 drownings are men. Just remember that no one’s unsinkable.

A LARGE crowd attended Willum Warrain Aboriginal Association’s Change the Date event on the Australia Day public holiday at the group’s gathering place in Pound Road, Hastings. Speakers at the event, clockwise from above, included Willum Warrain’s community engagement officer Nadia Douglas, Tom Tankard-West, Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors Sarah Race and Despi O’Connor and Uncle John. Later in the morning many of those attending at Hastings went to The Briars at Mount Martha for Our Survival Day, an event organised by the Aboriginal owned and woman-led organisation, Our Songlines.

Church fete that tempted tastes

Skilling up for emergencies

Ready for call: Firefighters at Dromana are making sure they are ready for challenges this summer. Pictures: Supplied

Fete helpers: Clockwise from top left, Jill Williams and Joy Jarman; Grace Mary Huntly; Rae Connell and Rhonda Whitehead; . Pictures: Supplied A WHITE elephant stall, scones with jams, more than 600 pots of jams and marmalades, a pet show, pony rides, vintage cars and a spinning wheel with prizes made up the ingredients for a successful St John’s Fete at Flinders on Saturday 27 January. The more than 100 volunteers behind the fete for months baked, jammed, pickled, sorted and cleaned, sewed and knitted to continue the tradition of the fete which has been held to support St John’s Church and other charities since 1939. “The St John’s Fete only comes together with the support of so many locals who not only

THE latest training exercise for firefighters at Dromana Fire Brigade included breathing apparatus skills maintenance and hose drills.

This year’s fete was sponsored by Community Bank Balnarring and District, Kay & Burton and the Flinders Community Association.

Surfers, volunteers smiling at Pt Leo THE Disabled Surfers Association Mornington Peninsula’s first beach day of the year saw 156 surfers and more than 300 volunteers at Pt Leo on 20 January. Since 2012, DSAMP has been fulfilling its mission to put “smiles on dials” by offering safe, accessible and fun surfing experiences to surfers of all disabilities. Established by Gary Blaschke in 1986, the Disabled Surfers Association of Australia now has more than 19 chapters in Australia and one in New Zealand. “In the 12 years since we started, we have watched our events continue to grow,” DSAMP president Pea Saunders said. “There’s a fantastic vibe for the surfers, carers and volunteers, combined with a high degree of professionalism and commitment from all involved, that make our events something that we all look forward to.” Volunteers and surfers often attend both events held by the DSAMP each year. “This was our second year, and I can see it being a regular event for our family,” said Rebecca Eakins who attended the January event with her sons, Jaxson and Jayden. “It’s such a heartwarming day, and I often wonder if the surfers or volunteers are having more fun. We try to give our boys every opportunity, and they love being on the water, but surfing is not one we could have given them without the support of DSAMP.” Leanne Vogt came for the first time with her son Michael who “went from being super anxious and not sure if he wanted to participate” to wanting to know when he could do it again. “He wants his own board and to learn,” she said. DSAMP is run by volunteers and supported by community groups, including Point Leo Surf Life Saving Club, the Point Leo foreshore management committee and Tyabb Somerville Rotary Club. Volunteers do not require any experience or to be surfers. The next event will be on 16 March. Follow DSAMP on Facebook or Instagram to stay up to date.

THE DOG HOSPITAL WITH GRAEME HALL

TEN, 8.40pm

They don’t call dog trainer and TV presenter Graeme Hall (pictured) “The Dogfather” for nothing. A natural at taming disobedient pooches, Hall’s Dogs Behaving (Very) Badly series showcases his undeniable love for our four-legged friends. Tonight, a Labrador struggles with a severe chest infection, which has its owner worried. Also, a golden retriever has a baﬄing chest ailment and a miniature dachshund battles an immune disorder.

FRIDAY

THE GOOD SHIP MURDER

SBS, 7.35pm

This series stars UK X-Factor winner Shayne Ward as Jack Grayling (pictured), a former police detective who is pursuing his dream of becoming a cabaret singer on a luxury Mediterranean cruise ship. In between crooning for the guests, Grayling ﬁnds himself investigating a series of murders on board with the help of ship’s First Oﬃcer Kate Woods (Catherine Tyldesley, Coronation Street) and cheerful waiter Jamil (Zak Douglas).

SUNDAY

MARRIED AT FIRST SIGHT

NINE, 7pm

We’re veil-deep in the 11th season of this Aussie dating reality-TV juggernaut, a Danish concept which has spawned around 30 versions around the world. Truthfully, it’s perhaps more of a commitment for viewers than the wedded contestants, with movie-length episodes airing four nights a week. Whether you see the developments as “plot twists” or “relationship hiccups” speaks to how much of these love hijinks you believe are the real deal, but what does it matter when it’s such addictive entertainment?

TOUR KNIT

BREATHEABLE KNIT

SUPERIOR COMFORT. BREATHEABLE KNIT. EXTRA WIDE & DEEP FIT.

Who needs a hardened cop with a drinking problem when you can be seduced by a smartly dressed behavioural scientist who has a twinkle in his eye and a knack for grasping human nature? Law & Order’s Jesse L. Martin (pictured) shines bright in this witty American procedural that sticks to a pleasingly traditional formula, steering clear of the common troubled protagonist. Martin’s dogged Alec Mercer is the consummate professional. In tonight’s movie-length premiere, a former marine confesses to murdering his inﬂuencer girlfriend, but it doesn’t add up for Mercer. Simmering in the background is his stirring relationship with his estranged wife. Alessandra Rampolla (left) co-hosts Married At First Sight.

LETTERS Permit required It was an interesting exercise recently as to how to put on a community event locally. After calling Mornington Peninsula Shire, I discovered that to run an event in one of our parks, which I’ll add here, that our parks belong to all Victorians to enjoy, I would need to require a permit if the event held more than 50 people. The permit base rate would cost me $1100 that would be paid to our shire. For this base rate I could acquire a food van for the people enjoying the park, after that, the permit price increases depending on how many food vans and such things as a band. In actual fact, the cost for putting on a function in one of our parks would be excessively high. Considering we already pay rates I would like to know why permits are so high in price and I’d also like to see this shire’s permit for holding a “community events” such as last May’s LGBTQIA+ disco for children as young as 10 years old. Where is the permit for this up and coming shindig in our beautiful Briars nature park, the Harry Potter extravaganza? It seems that the same rules do not apply to constituents as they do to the shire. Let’s take this opportunity to remind Mornington Peninsula Shire that it works for us, certainly not the other way around. Show us the permits or face the consequences. Equal rights for all and special privileges for none is the way forward. Felicity Benson, Mornington

No welcome for MP The state MP for Mornington Chris Crewther was treated as a non-person by a Mornington Peninsula Shire-delegated organiser of the Village Green [Mount Eliza] flag raising ceremony on 26 January. The organiser specifically repeated that Mount Eliza Rotary Club was presenting a non-political event and promptly instructed me to leave and either attend Mount Martha or take myself off to Melbourne. I chose to remain and enjoy the companionship of the ranking politician attending and talk politely to many of my friends who were in attendance Meanwhile, the Rotary organiser had phoned a security friend, not the police or shire officers, to have me silenced. I was then verbally threatened to be thrown off the green when I was obviously sober, smiling to locals and just wishing happy Australia Day greetings to all and sundry Cr Steve Holland was allowed to speak, as were other sponsors, but our ranking local citizen, Chris Crewther MP, was further ignored contrary to previous shire public meeting protocols. I am submitting a formal complaint to the mayor. Ian Morrison, Mount Eliza

Commemorate Cook The destructive vandalism of a statue of Captain James Cook on Australia Day eve was without doubt was the work of someone who is ignorant of the history and life of a brave, courageous and intelligent human being. James Cook was a lieutenant in the British Navy when given command of the barque HMS Endeavour [and] he and his crew successfully sailed around the world during 1770 and came to our shores during April, May, June and August of that year. For those who think they know some of our country’s history, Cook and his crew only stepped foot on our shores in four places, a few days in Botany Bay, NSW to replenish water and food, Town 1770 in Queensland to raise the English flag, Cooktown also in Queensland, to repair a hole in the ship’s bow after hitting the Great Barrier Reef and Possession Island in Torres Strait. James Cook was made a captain after returning to England. He made a further two voyages to our part of the world, however neither he nor his crew stepped ashore in Australia during these explorations. Unfortunately, James Cook was killed in Hawaiian Islands during his last exploration trip around the world. The Hawaiians have erected many statues in remembrance of him, as they also saw him as a hero. Bruce White, Safety Beach

Government attacks Wake up my fellow Australians. We are being attacked on all sides by pathetic governments on

Letters - 300 words maximum and including full name, address and contact number - can be sent to The News, PO Box 588, Hastings 3915 or emailed to: team@mpnews.com.au all levels. The willful destruction of pride, love and respect for the settlement of this country by generations who have established world class education and medicine and freedom for all who wish to live in harmony and peace is abused. Can you believe that several local councillors did not celebrate all that has been achieved over the years? Some of whom were welcomed into our country with open arms. What a disgrace.. I believe in freedom of speech and the right to demonstrate. Not too sure [the Prime Minister Anthony] Mr Albanese does, as his government introduces bills to tell us what we can believe and say. The demonstration on the streets of Melbourne on Australia Day was a display of aggressive hatred and racism for Australians. The TV media has a lot to answer for with the camera on Lydia Thorpe speaking of peace when her actions on entering parliament with a clenched fist went unchallenged. Please speak up with pride and be grateful for all we have accomplished. Diversity is not healthy for our country as time proves. There will never be peace in Australia until we are one people under one flag speaking one language and tolerance for all faiths. Thank God for all the gifts we enjoy that every other country envies. Maureen Sharpe, Bittern

Road safety at Crib Point With the end of summer holidays, our children are now heading back to school. This means reduced speed limits around schools from 8am to 9.30am and 2.30pm to 4pm. Although we have valued school crossing supervisors assisting our children to school safely, more action is required to make our busy roads safer. Crib Point requires new traffic signals at the intersection of Stony Point Road and Disney Street for school kids, local residents and cyclists. Many students dodge cars, trucks and fishermen with boats when crossing Stony Point Road to reach their school bus stop every morning. Mothers with prams and small children must quickly cross Stony Point Road to reach the early learning centre, chemist and shops. Stony Point Road has a 60kph speed limit, but Disney Street has a 70kph speed limit – this needs to be reduced. The Victorian government, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council and our local politicians are aware of community concerns. We need new traffic signals in Crib Point before another road accident occurs at this intersection. Dale Stohr, Crib Point

Answers needed first Our local member, [Nepean MP] Sam Groth, is circulating a petition for an overpass at Jetty Road, Rosebud. I use that junction fairly regularly and find the traffic lights have made a difference to the buildup of the traffic, although I am sure it still is a problem on Friday nights or at the peak of a holiday season. We need to ask Mr Groth is would an overpass just lead to another problem at the Boneo Road intersection - where the traffic moves to a single lane and is often backed up which continues on Browns Road and Point Nepean Road? We all know what that is like during peak holiday season. Would an overpass be a first step in building a freeway along the freeway reserve that is marked on maps and finishes at Canterbury Jetty Road? If that is the case, how will that effect all those people who have now built houses adjoining the reserve, and how will that plan avoid a blockage again when it gets to Canterbury Jetty Road? If Mr Groth believes we should spend millions of dollars of our money, we need to see the answers to these question first. Marg D’Arcy, Rye

Enlightened works Is this a new musical? Sorry, but it’s not. On both ends of a street in Capel Sound called Broadway, there have been three big electronic rented signs. Since late November, these trailer-size signs tell all passers-by that roadworks will start in February. I wonder how much taxpayers/ratepayers pay in hiring charges for this message.

I would have thought any roadworks would be super visible from all the signs, bollards, lights and flags. Warwick Spinaze, Tootgarook

backlash council is receiving. This is not only a question but a clear directive from a community who have not been consulted, informed or considered. Janet Street, Mornington

Ballot backlash

Creature protection

After weeks of outrage over the monstrously inappropriate and environmentally inexcusable Harry Potter show at The Briars, I have reached the conclusion that the Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors supporting the proposal have either massively misunderstood the feelings of ratepayers - in which case they have deservedly assured themselves of being voted out at the next election - they decided they had had enough of being councillors and decided to go out in a blaze of “glory”. Either way they will get their just reward at the ballot box. Ross Hudson, Mount Martha

A staggering 144 new plants and animals were added to the threatened species list in 2023. That’s five times more than the yearly average and double the amount of species added in the previous record year (70 in 2009). How desperately sad. Each and every species, from the Jardine River turtle to the Mornington Peninsula’s own sharp-tailed sandpiper, is part of the intricate web of life. Predation by introduced foxes and cats, habitat destruction and climate change are driving the march toward extinction and ecosystem collapse. With more than 2000 species now on Australia’s threatened list, the Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act seems successful at identifying endangered species but not so effective at saving them. Environment minister Tanya Plibersek’s promised environmental law reform and increased funding can’t come soon enough for all creatures, great and small. Amy Hiller, Kew

Promise for ‘next time’ Last Monday i went to hear some more details about the Harry Potter debacle at The Briars. Several hundred people also wanted to find out why Mornington Peninsula Shire found it necessary to hold this event in one of the peninsula’s most treasured wildlife reserves. I have to say, it was brave of the mayor [Cr Simon Brooks] to turn up and face the music. Sadly, the dreaded nondisclosure clause the shire’s officers and councillors signed with Warner Bros, except for David Gill and Anthony Marsh, prevented us from learning any reasons for this frankly stupid decision by the shire. Listening to the mayor’s replies, i came away with the conclusion that our elected reps have signed us up to a deal that benefits mostly carpetbaggers and opens the ratepayers of the peninsula up to very hefty penalties if the shire tries to wriggle out of the deal. We also were assured by the mayor that a proper environmental assessment by outside specialists was performed but, sadly, we can’t have access to these reports as they’re also confidential. So, on the whole, we didn’t learn very much, but the mayor assured us that the whole council is working very hard not to repeat such a daft deal ever again. Isn’t that fantastic, basically he said bugger the wildlife this time, but if there is any left after this Harry Potter debacle is over, we’ll be doing much better. With that attitude, I can only say good luck to them all at the council elections later in the year. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring

Time to move Members of a concerned community will attend this week’s Mornington Peninsula Shire Council meeting outraged at the disdainful, contemptible manner they feel this council is treating them. In particular, the decision and process of making a deal with Warner Bros. Global Themed Entertainment, Fever (an entertainment tech platform) and IMG to hold a Harry Potter: Forbidden Forest experience within The Briars wildlife sanctuary. A meeting at Mornington Yacht Club on Monday 29 January heard this “dirty big secret” of council was not advertised and cannot be spoken about with the peninsula’s community. It is now evident that shire executives don’t know the community they are to work with, consult and inform on issues which impact them and their environment. Those at the yacht club meeting heard the mayor [Cr Simon Brooks] floundering to answer questions due to signing a non-disclosure agreement. The audience realised councillors were ill-informed of this Harry Potter experience the day before having an in-camera discussion and approving the event on 22 August 2023. Councillors are said to be having sleepless nights, headaches and their hair getting greyer and greyer by the minute. At least, those councillors with a conscience. I encourage residents to write (maximum two) questions to the CEO John Baker and present these at a council meeting via mornpen.vic.gov. au/About-Us/About-Our-Council/Council-Meetings/Meeting-Information/Public-QuestionTime. My question: Will you Mr John Baker and the executives have discussions with Warner Bros/Fever Entertainment to relocate the event - Harry Potter: Forbidden Forest Experience from The Briars wildlife sanctuary to a more suitable location? Due to the overwhelming

Lockdown lament The decision by our Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors to host the Harry Potter event inside The Briars Wildlife sanctuary goes against the ethos of our whole community I wrote this poem during the lockdown when The Woodland Walk was our sanctuary. Please relocate. Delia Tobin, Mount Martha Walking at The Briars every day we walked at the Briars through the wetlands tree roots tripped us up on days when we weren’t looking kangaroos startled us when we talked too much Some days the woodland hills were easy and some days they were tough going when our spirits were low the kookaburras laughed there was space to breathe smell the fern and wattle black cockatoos chipped at branches overhead an echidna crossed our path with yellow tips one time we saw a white heron walking in the shallows it spread its wings gracefully and took flight the emu was unpredictable and we gave it respect the land flattened out towards the end our heads quiet and our boots heavy with earth only then we were silent when the black copperhead moved, we stood still no words left, just us there resting together on our favourite bench until we laughed at some silly memory from our childhood quietly we closed our eyes, listening to our breathing we neared the crossing over the wooden bridge the river was slow with reeds and lilies after the rains it gushed loudly and raised the flood gates we dipped our feet in the cool running water October brought the sweet smell of fresh cut grass and the gentle wave of spring petals blowing in the breeze the seasons light was changing then we knew this time was nearly over – we were heading home Mornington News

Your questions answered by Maggie from DenturePoint What is DenturePoint? At DenturePoint we make all types of dentures, you don’t need a dental referral, just call or book online for an appointment. We make digital dentures and also offer nightguards, mouthguards and express denture repairs. My denture is very dirty and I cannot clean it anymore. What should I do? If your denture is too difficult for you to clean, bring it to us and we will run it through our DentureSpa. This treatment gives a very thorough clean to your dentures and will get rid of all the unwanted bacteria, fungi and other pathogens which can be detrimental to your health. Can you make me a denture if I only have one tooth missing? Yes, we can make a flexible, clip-on denture. They work incredibly well for small spaces without having metal clasps and lots of plastic in your mouth. I like to call them invisible dentures as the translucency of the material used allows them to “disappear” once inserted. What are digital dentures? The digital dentures are made by scanning your mouth with an oral scanner rather than by taking standard impressions. The dentures are designed based on these scans. Scanning eliminates human error in production, the quality and a fit is much better than conventional dentures. Also with scanning there are no gagging issues!

What is the benefit of wearing a denture? Many: aesthetics, the teeth stop migrating, chewing gets improved and the facial muscles work more evenly. Also, unlike other dental prostheses, dentures are non-invasive, which means we do not need to prepare any teeth for you to wear a denture. What type of denture is the most difficult to wear? I would say a full lower denture since it’s hard to get suction on it. It is possible but unfortunately the anatomy does not always allow it. I was trained in Japan by world renowned dentist, Dr Jiro Abe, to create a better suction on the lower dentures. Is it hard to wear a denture? Yes, it’s not easy. However at DenturePoint we offer very thorough aftercare and provide lots of support. We explain what the process involves and are always happy to answer all your questions and provide follow up appointments. Maggie is very passionate and dedicated to her job. She is also the founder of Denture Support Group: Australia & Worldwide on Facebook, which offers help to anyone with denture-related concerns or questions.

Finally, relief from your hip pain DOES this describe YOU? • You get hip pain laying on your side in bed, and just can’t get to sleep. • You place a pillow between your legs to help you get to sleep but laying on the painful side is still waking you. • You find yourself standing on one leg with your other hip hanging lower, or you sitting with crossed legs causes the pain • You are a runner worried your hip pain will get worse and stop you from exercising. If so then read on. The pain on the outside of the hip can be due to inflammation of the gluteal tendon, of Gluteus Medius and Minimus, where the gluteal muscles attach. It can also be where a bursa (a fat pad called the trochanteric bursa) can become inflamed. The hip pain may be associated with a stiff back. Physiotherapist Brett Blanch-Hellyer, says that it is an injury affected by hip weakness and postural habits that place the tendons under stress. It requires a full analysis of the hip and lower limb, looking from the foot to the back biomechanics. It can require massage, and specific strengthening exercises for the gluteal muscles as well as improving core stability to control pelvic movement. In addition to the above solutions, there is a recent healing technology that is making a profound difference to outside of the hip pain sufferers.

Physiotherapist, Brett Blanch-Hellyer

Practice owner, Paul Rowson says “Shockwave Therapy is often useful, because the gluteal tendons are a connective tissue, not a muscle. It puts a significant shockwave through the tissues you apply it to. It is a pressure wave which brings blood flow to the area. Tendons and connective tissue do not have much blood supply and can take a long time to heal. Shockwave artificially stimulates the healing of the tendon.” Shockwave therapy can also be used on Achilles tendonitis, Plantar Fasciitis, golfer’s and tennis elbow, and rotator cuff tendon problems,

and is usually most effective on long term chronic problems, rather than acute injuries. Shockwave is not the first line of treatment for injured patients. Physiotherapy and graded exercise are more likely in the first instance. But for more stubborn conditions, shockwave has shown good results. “The evidence at the moment suggests between three to five treatments are required, but most people should see an improvement within three sessions. It has a success rate up to 90%” Brett says. The Shockwave therapy is administered for a three-minute period

to the affected area during consecutive weekly appointments. “It is a bit of an uncomfortable sensation” Brett says, “like most physio hands-on treatments, with a little discomfort during the treatment.” Paul says, “After each session, most people get a significant reduction of pain and symptoms. Long term it stimulates healing, short term it reduces pain. The best thing is, the effects are long lasting. It prevents a lot of people having more invasive things like surgery or injections. The treatment is considered safe, but can produce skin reddening or bruising, short term pain, and

cannot be used on people taking blood thinning medications or with bleeding disorders. “ “It is important to know that Shockwave has a long-term effect. Most of the time you have good outcomes, without having to have further treatments.” Shockwave is now available in Balnarring. Call the practice now and speak to one of our physios to see if Shockwave suits your condition. Back in Motion is at 6/2-8 Russell Street, Balnarring.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Sorrento foreshore - further alienation contemplated Compiled by Cameron McCullough YET another attempt to alienate Crown lands adjoining the front bench in Sorrento is in progress. The public know well the two beautiful points jutting out into Port Phillip Bay on the south-east side of the Sorrento steamboat pier known as The Sisters. From the point nearest to the pier, as well as the farther one, which is already alienated, a be beautiful panoramic view of the bay is to be seen. Marked expressions of annoyance and disgust were quickly followed by an expressed determination to prevent any further alienation of the foreshore for anything but public purposes. The reported attempt has not officially reached the committee of management of the Sorrento foreshore. Two years ago a deputation waited on the then Minister of Lands (Mr. Oman) with a view to the whole of the foreshore between Canterbury Jetty and the quarantine station boundary being placed under the control of it trust. Finally a committee of management was appointed for Sorrento controlling the reserve and foreshore from Canterbury Jetty and Mr. Laycock’s, and also one for Portsea from Mr. Laycock’s to the quarantine boundary. Regulations were framed and gazetted by the committee, and it has been doing all the preliminary work prior to carrying out necessary improvements. Then the Sorrento committee found that, on sending out the assessment, notices to lessees of jetties, bathing boxes, &c., the Lands Department had eliminated a portion of the foreshore from the operations of the committee

of management. On the top of this comes the report of the projected alienation of the remaining point of “The Sisters.” The secretary of the foreshore committee, when asked if such was the case, replied that he had heard the report, and failed to see how the Govermnent could sell the land, as it was vested in the control of the Sorrento committee, and, according to documentary evidence in his possession, the land was permanently reserved for the recreation, convenience and amusement of the people. *** OPENING OF FRANKSTON HIGH SCHOOL As the High School is to commence on Tuesday next, February 12, parents and guardians of intending scholars are hereby reminded that the head teacher, Mr. R. E. Chapman, Dep. Ed., will be in attendance at the temporary school buildings, Masonic Hall, Frankston, from 10am on Monday, February 11, to enroll scholars. We trust that all those who are desirous of making a success of the school, and incidentally providing their children with a first class education, will avail themselves of this opportunity. Miss Broughton, of Bendigo, and Miss Lynch, will form part of the staff under Mr. Chapman at the new school. *** IN our last issue we notified the public that Mr. Tom Laurie, of Cranbourne Road, Frankston, was suffering from a severe attack of ptomaine poisoning. We are pleased to now be able to report that the danger zone has been passed, and he is making rapid progress towards recovery. ***

MR. and Mrs. F. Kilner have moved into their new house on the Melbourne Road, having decided to make their home permanently in Frankston. Mr. Kilner, who is the son of the late Mr. Joseph Kilner, who was for many years associated with Frankston, and knowing no better place, has returned to the scene of his boyhood days to spend his declining years. Mr. Charles Kilner, a brother of Mr. F. Kilner, has also had a house built at Frankston, and having retired from business has come back with his wife, to settle here. We wish them many happy years in their new homes. *** WE learn with pleasure that Mr. Albert Addicott, who a few weeks ago met with a severe accident to his hand, is now making good progress towards recovery. Although Mr. Addicott has had a piece of bone removed from his hand, hopes are entertained that he will not lose the use of any of his fingers. Mr. Addicott (senior), who has been suffering with a broken arm, is also well on the way towards recovery. *** WE regret to hear that Mr. Charles Murray, of Somerville, is about to go under a serious operation this week, and we extend to him and his relatives our best wishes for a successful result, and a speedy return to health. *** MR. and Mrs. Dodd, of Frankston have just returned home from a motor trip to the Gippsland Lakes where they have had a most enjoyable time. *** MR. W. Minton’s (superintendent of the Ragged Boys’ Homes) mother is very ill in hospital.

IN THE

Mrs. Minton is 80 years of age, and came out from England by the “Great Britain” in the sixties. *** MR. Bert McComb has received offer from the Essendon Football Club, asking him to practice, with view to playing with them during the forthcoming season. We understand he has favourably considered the offer, and Essendon’s gain will be Frankston’s loss. However, our best wishes for success will accompany Bert in’ his future playing sphere, believing, that with the chances offered he will prove them what he has proved here, that is, thorough sportsman, always playing the game as it should be played, in the interests of sport alone. *** PROHIBITION IN AMERICA The congregations who attended the Presbyterian Church in the morning, and the Methodist Church, Frankston, in the evening of Sunday last heard more about the above subject than they have been able to hear or to read up to the present time. The preacher, Dr. Blakeslee, who took for his subject, “Prohibition, in America: By One Who Lives There,” gave a very fine address, taking those present by word pictures through the various states, pointing out the conditions obtaining there, showing these states under prohibition and before; showing the true state of affairs, and comparing them with the various reports that have appeared from time to time. Altogether it was a real eye-opener for a good many, and whether one is in favor of prohibition or not, it must be admitted the lectures or sermons

were indeed very fine. *** ONE often hears the expression “Fifty-Fifty” used, and sometimes the expression “Break even,” whatever it may mean. However, the following story, of the former is of such a character that we think it worth repeating. The story runs as follows: In a country town, where a rabbit canning factory was established, a rumor began to circulate that the management were turning out more tins of the finished product than their consumption of rabbit would warrant. This rumor eventually reached the department, who at once despatched an inspector to the place to make inquiries. Upon arrival at the place he at once approached the manager, told him who he was, and his business there. He then asked if it were true that he was putting something other than rabbits in the cans. The manager at once said “Yes.” Upon being asked what, he said, “I am putting in horse flesh, good, clean horse flesh, the same as they eat in other countries.” Upon being asked by the inspector, “What proportion are you putting in,” he replied, “Oh, fifty-fifty.” “What do you mean by “fifty fifty,” asked the Inspector. “Oh, fifty-fifty means one horse, one rabbit.” *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 6 & 8 Feb 1924

WOMENS

DELACOMBE Park closed their season with a thrilling win over Mt Eliza. Mt Eliza scored 123 runs from their 30 overs. Ingrid Harvey top scored with 38 not out. The wickets were shared evenly among the Delacombe Park bowlers. They would have to bat well to chase down their target and grab a win. A brilliant 38 run ninth-wicket partnership between Trish Hawkins and Melissa Newham won the game for Delacombe Park. They hit the winning runs with an over and two wickets to spare. Hawkins, who returned to the game after the scorching weather forced her from the field, top scored with a match-winning 46 not out. Flinders rounded out their season with a win by chasing down Seaford Tigers’ total of 118. Marlee Black’s unbeaten knock of 89 was the highlight of Somerville’s thumping victory over Crib Point on Sunday. Balnarring were also comprehensive winners over Tooradin.

PROVINCIAL

PINES scraped over the line for a close win over Long Island last Saturday. Long Island batted first and put 170 runs on the board. Skipper Aiden McKenna top scored with 69 from 80 deliveries, but he didn’t get much help from his teammates. Billy Humphrey tore through the tail with three late wickets to restrict Long Island's final total. Pines struggled to reach their target, but managed to lock up the win with an over to spare. They had just two wickets left in hand. Connor Jackson’s half-century helped Pines secure the points.

Seaford ended up scraping over the line in the final over for a one-wicket win.

MT MARTHA secured back-to-back wins last weekend over Hastings and Skye respectively. On Saturday, some brilliant bowling secured the win for Mt Martha.

Langwarrin ready for Greens SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie LANGWARRIN’S league season kicks off on Saturday evening when the local club hosts Bentleigh Greens in the opening round of the rebranded VPL1 competition. It’s been almost 15 years since these teams met in a league game at Lawton Park and the locals will be hoping for a different outcome to the 1-0 loss suffered on 4 July 2009. Langy head coach Jamie Skelly is under no illusions about the task ahead against an NPL heavyweight still smarting from last season’s relegation. “It’s probably as tough an assignment as we could have got for round one but I think we are ready,” Skelly said. “I expect them to be structured, well organised and they have some very good players. “Their aim is promotion and I know that’s been vocalised by a lot of people within that club so they’ve got expectations and they’ve got pressure to do that.” It’s a different Langwarrin under Skelly who filled the vacancy created by Scott Miller’s departure at the end of last season. There’s been no hint of bravado, no rash claims of promotion possibilities or public pronouncements about a readiness to step up to the highest level of club competition in Victoria. “We haven’t talked about goals or expectations because you can become hamstrung by them and you end up only focussing on that,” he said. “We know what we’ve got. “We know when we play at our best we can be really competitive against anyone. “I know it’s a cliché but we’re just about looking at that next fixture not focussing on where we’re going to end up.” Eight players have left Langy’s senior squad during the off-season and eight newcomers have arrived with three youngsters from last season’s under-21s promoted to the senior squad. The players that have left are Tristan Meaker, Josh Varga, Simon Storey (now assistant senior coach), Carlos Abboud, Ethan Goulding, Jaiden Madafferi, Jin Jeong and Logan Crouch. Vega proved to be a very creative player who enhanced the team’s attacking capability but Skelly is confident that they have dealt with his loss.

“We’ve made some key attacking signings. “Joe O’Brien from Mandurah City has come in and strengthened our attacking options and Dante Avian has come in from Brunswick City so if you’re thinking like for like then he’s probably the most similar to Josh in that he’s technically very good, he likes running at players and he can score goals as well. “And Rahul (Suresh) is a late arrival who gives us another option up there so we have a lot of attacking options.” Brothers Rahul and Barath Suresh agreed terms last week. Rahul is a 19-year-old winger and Barath is a 20-year-old midfielder and both are full Sri Lankan internationals. They joined Langy from German club Niendorfer TSV. Another attacking option is James Kelly who has had a horror run with recurring soft-tissue injuries. Kelly may be Langwarrin’s best player but getting him onto the pitch regularly has been a problem in recent seasons. “It’s difficult for me and it’s difficult for James to manage,” Skelly said. “He’s such a good player and he’s important to us but you have to risk putting him out there at times and it’s about managing that risk as best you can.

“We’d love to have him out there for 90 minutes each week but that’s not going to happen. “We know that and he knows that so we have to pick and choose the games he can start and when he’s better coming off the bench while managing his training load as well.” When Skelly took over last September he quickly identified a need to improve defensively with last season’s side conceding the highest number of goals since the club entered the NPL in 2018. So there’s been a deliberate focus on the team’s defensive structure throughout the off-season with promising signs judging by last weekend’s 0-0 draw with Dandenong Thunder at George Andrews Reserve. “We’ve worked hard defensively and set ourselves up to be very hard to break down. “Our recruitment and the way we’ve worked has been based on the style we want to play. “We can make alterations to that if we need to but we’re pretty clear on the structures we want to play within. “We’ve worked very hard on our system and we’ve made sure that our personnel fit into that system. “We want to continue to build and to improve and over the season you generally end up where you deserve to end up. “If we can play as best we can and consistently then let’s see where that

takes us.” Here is Skelly’s 2024 senior squad with the previous club of newcomers in brackets: GOALKEEPERS: Griffin Bambach (Sunshine Coast Wanderers), James Burgess, Branten Kindler (promoted from 21s). DEFENDERS: Luke Adams (Dandenong Thunder), Ryo Takahashi (Albirex Niigata), Luke Goulding, Jeremy Min Fa, Charlie Fry, Thomas Podaridis, Lucas Portelli, Kameel Khan (promoted from 21s), Owen Murphy (promoted from 21s). MIDFIELDERS: Barath Suresh (Niendorfer TSV), Callum Goulding, Rogan McGeorge, Jacob Brito, Marcus Di Meo. FORWARDS: Joe O’Brien (Mandurah City), Dante Avian (Brunswick City), Rahul Suresh (Niendorfer TSV), Allen Dzemidzic (Oakleigh Cannons), Tom Youngs, Brad Blumenthal, Archie Macphee, James Kelly. In State 1 news Mornington has signed Rhys Craigie and Kostas Droutsas. It’s Craigie’s second stint with the Seagulls. In his native Scotland the midfielder played with Hearts, Stenhousemuir and Trenant Juniors. Beaumaris was his first Australian club and he joined Mornington in February 2022. During the current off-season he switched to Malvern City but when the chance came to get back to Dallas

Brooks Park he jumped at it. “I’m just happy to be back and see so many familiar faces and I’m really buzzing to get into pre-season again,” Craigie said. “I think this is the year we go all the way because ‘Jamo’ has assembled an unreal squad.” Droutsas joins Mornington from Dandenong City. The former Bentleigh Greens and Eastern Lions player is likely to be used in a front three or as an attacking midfielder. He had been training with Bentleigh Greens during the off-season.
