Peninsula’s ‘climate emergency’ Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE Mornington Peninsula may this week be declared to be facing a “climate emergency”.

If adopted by Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors, the measure will see them develop an action plan to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and lessen the effects of climate change.

The decision follows the release over the weekend of the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) special report which said that without massive changes to food production, cutting emissions from trans-

port and industry would not be enough to avoid dangerous climate change.

Cr Hugh Fraser says there is “widespread support” among councillors and among peninsula residents for declaration of a climate emergency.

“It gives fresh momentum to council’s 2014 resolved commitment to achieve carbon neutrality by 2021 and to carry that commitment by example and education to the wider peninsula community,” he said.

Two motions councillors were being asked to support at Tuesday night’s meeting give CEO John Baker six months to draw up a climate emergency action plan and for the shire to

lobby state and federal governments to legislate to “drive emergency action to reduce greenhouse gases and meet the lower target of the Paris Agreement (keep global warming below 1.5 degrees)”.

Cr Fraser told The News that the Rye tip was the shire’s largest single contributor to greenhouse gases and declaring a climate emergency would give “fresh momentum to finding clean alternatives in waste disposal”.

He said the state government held the key to “environmentally friendly waste alternatives to landfill” and should spend some of the $400 million collected in a waste tax from municipalities.

Victorian councils to have already declared a climate emergency Darebin, Yarra, Moreland, Ballarat, Maribyrnong, Brimbank and the City of Melbourne.

Interstate councils facing similar coastal erosion problems as the peninsula which have also declared a climate emergency are Byron, Fremantle, Newcastle, Hobart, Kingborough and Noosa.

Steps already being undertaken by Mornington Peninsula to reduce greenhouse gases include the use of electric vehicles by some senior officers and the mayor, Cr David Gill.

Last month the shire committed to

ending the use of single use plastics wherever possible on the peninsula (“Bid to end single use of plastics” The News 31/7/19).

Under its carbon neutral policy, the shire has also installed solar panels and LED street lights.

It is also a signatory to the global Covenant of Mayors which saw civic leaders throughout the world pledging to cut greenhouse emissions and prepare for the impacts of climate change.

As a member of the Cities Power Partnership the shire has also said it will “address renewable energy, sustainable transport and behaviour change initiatives”.

Call to stall 5G rollout on peninsula Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A PUBLIC meeting in Mt Eliza tomorrow night (Wednesday 14 August) will canvas risks associated with the impending rollout of 5G telecommunications services on the Mornington Peninsula.

“There are countries across the world, as well as states and shires, putting a stop to [5G] until it is proven to have no health risks,” organiser Judy O’Donnell said.

“We are a group of concerned peninsula residents trying to educate everyone here, too.”

“No research has proved 5G safe,” Ms O’Donnell said.

However, scientists at the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency say radio waves used by the 5G network have been “thoroughly tested and found to have no negative impacts on human health”.

Those invited to the meeting include Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr David Gill, councillors, Flinders MP Greg Hunt, the shire’s natural systems and native flora and fauna teams and Landcare groups.

Ms O’Donnell said beekeepers’ associations, health food store proprietors, schools and kindergartens would all be impacted if the roll-out “is allowed to go ahead”.

“Informed people worldwide are opposing 5G for environmental and health reasons,” she said.

“5G as planned will increase radiation levels 10 to 100-fold, virtually overnight, everywhere. Basically, we

Let’s wait: Mt Martha resident Judy O’Donnell wants to halt the roll-out of the 5G telecommunications service until it is proven safe.

will all be walking around in a microwave smog.”

Ms O’Donnell’s concerns are not shared by the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency, the federal government agency tasked with “protecting people and the environment from the harmful effects of radiation”.

Its scientists conduct research and work with the international radiation science community to set standards and guidelines on radiation, the body’s website says. It works independently from other parts of government and is not financed by industry.

“ARPANSA is aware that there is a lot of concerning misinformation circulating throughout the community about the

possible impacts of Australia’s planned roll-out of the 5G mobile network,” it says.

“Contrary to some claims, there are no established health effects from the radio waves that the 5G network uses.

“This network currently runs on radio waves similar to those used in the current 4G network and, in the future, will use radio waves with higher frequencies. It is important to note that higher frequencies do not mean higher or more intense exposure. Higher frequency radio waves are already used in security screening units at airports, police radar guns to check speed, remote sensors and in medicine. These uses have been thoroughly tested and found to have no negative im-

pacts on human health.”

Ms O’Donnell said she first heard about electromagnetic frequency (EMF) sensitivity from friends suffering from wifi exposure. “They get headaches, fatigue, anxiety, dizziness, brain fog, sleep problems, learning and memory disorders, heart problems when in shopping centres or are around too many mobile phones,” she said.

“They have made their homes safe and protected sanctuaries to avoid it.

“If 5G is rolled out, the whole planet will be in a blanket of microwave smog.

We can choose to turn off our mobile phones, wifi routers and TVs, but we can’t turn off the towers which need to be placed so close together to work that

they will be on bus shelters, light poles, near schools, parks and our homes – so there goes our freedom of choice and human rights.”

Ms O’Donnell said a free 5G global summit of scientists, doctors and engineers warned of adverse effects on people’s health and the environment. “The telecommunications industry has not shown it to be safe for our health or privacy and thousands of independent peer reviewed studies show the risks it presents,” she said.

“In parts of Europe where it has been rolled out bees, birds and trees are dying near towers.

It is clear that this type of electromagnetic frequency is disruptive to life biologically and environmentally.”

Ms O’Donnell said “thousands of groups all over the world” are opposing it. “Some countries, such as Belgium, have blocked the rollout, saying they don’t want their citizens to be guinea pigs.

“The telecommunications industry advertises it as faster downloads and smart technology, but it is much more. I love technology and run my businesses online, but if 5G is going to adversely affect human health and the environment, I say no.”

The Presentation, Discussion and Action meeting will be at Norwood House, 1198 Nepean Highway, 7-9pm.

Costly outcome for rubbish dumpers MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has successfully prosecuted 11 rubbish dumpers in the past seven months, resulting in fines of $11,000.

The shire says it is “continuing its zerotolerance approach to illegally dumped rubbish” with 10 cases of aggravated littering and one local law breach being heard at Dromana Magistrates’ Court.

Two tree loppers and five peninsula businesses were among those prosecuted in the cases which resulted in $11,459 in fines and $2313 in costs being recovered to help pay for clean-ups and offset statutory costs.

The shire’s environment protection unit is getting tough on rubbish dumpers by boosting patrols at dumping hot spots with CCTV and covert cameras and gates, fences and bollards to prevent access to parks and reserves.

The shire says all dumping incidents will be investigated with a view to prosecuting offenders.

The council has also begun letterbox drops calling for residents to provide information about waste dumps, and rolled out the Dobin-a-Dumper campaign to raise awareness of legal disposal methods.

“Illegal dumping is a crime and can incur on-the-spot fines,” the mayor Cr David Gill said. “Council will investigate all reported cases and prosecute dumpers with penalties of up to $9500.”

Cr Gill said dumped waste posed a “serious threat to our wildlife and can lead to contamination of land, waterways and groundwater”.

“It’s not hard to do the right thing with a long list of items able to be disposed of for

little or no cost at our resource recovery centres, or use the waste vouchers on rates notices to book a kerbside collection.

“The recent disruption to the recycling industry is another reminder of how crucial it is [that] we all make a conscious effort to reduce the amount of waste we produce, and dispose of rubbish and recycling correctly.”

The shire spends more than $700,000 a year cleaning up illegally dumped waste. A total of 4518 cases of illegal dumping have been reported in the past 12 months.

“Hardworking ratepayers’ money could be put to much better use in our community,” Cr Gill said.

The most commonly dumped items are mulch, green waste, hard waste, such as furniture and miscellaneous items, and tyres.

Items that can be dropped off for free at the resource recovery centres include household recyclables, steel goods (excluding fridges and air conditioners), bikes, computers, TVs, paint (up to 100 litres), gas cylinders (up to 9kg); motor oil (up to 20 litres), fluorescent globes and tubes and batteries.

Green waste can be taken to the resource recovery centres using waste vouchers or disposed of through the shire’s no-charge green waste events twice a year.

For a full list of items you can dispose of for free, visit: mornpen.vic.gov.au/wasteguide Peninsula households can book free kerbside waste collections for green and hard waste on 5950 1406.

Reading bookmarks a milestone THELMA Kirkman celebrated her 106th birthday sharing her love of literature with children from Goodstart Early Learning Centre, Benton’s Road, Mornington.

The Benetas Corowa Court, Mornington resident, a former secretary of Tasmanian State Library, was delighted to mark the milestone with a session that promoted the importance of reading from a young age.

Described as an “incredibly humble and generous” person, Ms Kirkman didn’t want to make a fuss, so Benetas staff organised the event so she could share her passion and knowledge with the youngsters who are all a century younger than she is.

Farrell’s Bookshop, Mornington, discounted the books which were handed out to each child along with some cakes.

“Mum has never been one for the spotlight,” Mrs Kirkman’s daughter Pat Cooper said.

“It’s been wonderful that she’s been able to celebrate by sharing her love for reading and her endless thirst for knowledge with the kindergarten children.”

Acting general manager of residential services Melanie Mazzarolli said: “Occasions like this don’t come around often.

“It’s incredible that we are able to celebrate this amazing milestone and give Thelma a memorable experience aligned with her passion for books.

“Being able to share her love of literature with the next generation, and seeing the wonderment in their faces, is truly a touching moment.”

The oldest resident at Corowa Court, Mrs Kirkman has lived on four continents, through two world wars and is said to be “in great shape with energy and curiosity that is unwavering”.

With Stephen Taylor

Doorknock follows shooting POLICE conducted a doorknock of surrounding streets in the wake of a shooting at Capel Sound last week.

They had rushed to the scene near Woodthorpe and Point Nepean roads about 2.55am after neighbours reported gunshots, Wednesday 7 August.

A man in his 20s was found in the street with wounds to his legs. He was taken to Frankston Hospital for treatment. No arrests had been made

by Friday afternoon and the investigation was said to be ongoing.

Rosebud Senior Sergeant Jen McKenna said the doorknock was aimed at easing residents’ concerns after the shooting. “We understand that incidents like the one that occurred in Capel Sound today can have a significant impact on a tight-knit community,” she said.

“The Capel Sound community can expect to see an increased presence with police conducting foot-and-mobile patrols over the next couple of days. “[They should] feel free to come and speak to us if they see us around. We are keen to speak to people in the community and address any concerns.

“We want to reassure everyone that police are working hard to keep them safe.”

Arrested at Rye SOUTHERN Metro Divisional Response Unit police arrested a man during a raid at Rye on Wednesday 7 August.

They allegedly found two firearms, two Tasers, ammunition and a quantity of methyl-amphetamine at the Browns Road property.

A 49-year-old man was charged with two counts of being a prohibited person possessing a firearm, trafficking methyl-amphetamine, pos-

sessing ammunition, and five counts of possessing a prohibited weapon without authorisation.

The man was remanded in custody to appear at Frankston Magistrates’ Court on 16 August.

Ute, cash boxes stolen CASH boxes stolen from the Coles supermarket at McCrae Plaza said to contain a “significant” amount of money were found empty at Seaford wetlands and in Robinsons Road, Frankston, last week.

At least two men are believed to have forced open roller doors to the supermarket using a long-handled jemmy bar before loading three cash boxes into a stolen Holden Crewman ute, 12.30am, Thursday 8 August.

Earlier, the same men wearing gloves and hoodies are believed to have unsuccessfully attempted to force their way into Sorrento Cellars.

The ute was found burnt-out at Cranbourne on Friday morning.

Reset tests drivers MORE than 1200 traffic offences were detected during the four-day Operation Reset, police said last week.

Speeding topped the list of offences with 405 drivers nabbed: alarmingly, 320 were exceeding the limit by 10-25kph.

Police conducted 11,758 preliminary breath tests and 499 drug tests and found 69 affected drivers during the operation which ran from Thursday 1 August-Sunday 4 August.

Southern Metro Region Acting Commander Tony Silva said it was alarming to see the number of dangerous choices people continue to make when they get behind the wheel. “It’s a harsh reality … that every offence, be it speeding, drink or drug driving, or failure to wear

seatbelts, can take a life in a split second,” he said.

“Poor driver behaviour on our roads continues to kill and injure family, friends and loved ones.

“The operation may have finished but our focus to reset this behaviour on our roads remains.”

Offences detected over the four days included 24 drink drivers, 45 drug drivers, 43 impounds, 61 mobile phone offences, 79 unlicensed drivers, 12 disqualified drivers, 12 seat belt offences, and 207 unregistered vehicles.

sergeant and below. They will record video and audio footage.

Police will be given regular training which includes the use and functions of the body worn camera.

Phone charging A MT ELIZA man who had his car impounded for speeding and drug-driving at Langwarrin early Monday morning had devised a novel way of charging his mobile phone. The 38-year-old was running a lead from the battery, through an open side window and into the phone.

Senior Constable Greg Wolfe, of Somerville Highway Patrol, said: “Most of us have a charging cord of some type in our cars for charging up our mobile phone.

“When you drive a car that’s a bit of a wreck inside, and doesn’t have a functioning cigarette lighter socket, it can be a challenge though.

“When you take illicit drugs you probably come up with what seem like good ideas and put them into practice as well.”

Cops with cameras POLICE at Dromana, Hastings, Mornington, Rosebud, Rye, Somerville and Sorrento will wear body cameras from next week. They will be among more than 11,000 cameras in use by 2020.

The cameras will be worn by general duties and highway patrol police of the rank of

Looking for Andrew MISSING person Andrew Dymott, pictured, was last seen at a family barbecue at Mt Eliza in 1999. The qualified electrician was last seen by his father in the early afternoon walking to his car which was parked on the street. He did not return and has not been seen since.

Mr Dymott, 47, is 180cm tall, medium build, brown hair, green eyes and fair complexion.

During National Missing Persons Week 4-10 August his family was reminded it had been 20 years since they last saw their son and remain concerned for his safety and welfare.

Mossie spraying ‘on hold’ Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au EXPERTS are being asked for ways to control mosquitoes on the southern Mornington Peninsula using “alternative approaches to spraying” that will not harm the environment.

The move by Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors follows a packed public meeting on Saturday which highlighted residents’ concerns over a spraying program planned for October as part of studies into the flesh-eating Buruli ulcer.

The spraying program will now be put on hold

until more is known about the effect its chemicals will have on the environment.

“The mood of the meeting was that we all want to work towards eradicating Buruli ulcers on the peninsula, but do not wish to be the guinea pigs in a scientific trial of questionable value,” Paul Saunders said.

Mr Saunders, who organised the meeting at Rye civic hall with fellow members of the peninsula branch of The Greens, Kelvin Stingle and Roslyn Browning, said: “We stepped in where others had failed and created an information sharing event that the local community desperately needed.”

The spraying in October of selected residential

areas by scientists studying the spread of the ulcer may be abandoned or modified depending on the outcome of the shire’s search for “alternative approaches”.

A motion by Cr Simon Brooks at Tuesday’s (13 August) meeting said council, after receiving that advice, will “listen to the community’s concerns and act accordingly”.

The mayor Cr David Gill told the estimated 300 people at Saturday’s meeting that $1.5 million might be needed to reduce the number of mosquitoes without spraying.

Cr Gill said alternatives could include mosquito traps, an intensive public education campaign to

Politics and science drew a crowd to Rye civic hall to discuss using chemical sprays to control mosquitoes believed to spread the flesh eating Burtuli ulcer.

reduce possible mosquito breeding grounds and use in water of a chemical that would kill only mosquito larvae.

Cr Gill told The News it was now clear that there had been little or no research into the effects of spraying on the environment.

The federal government has already committed $3.9 million towards fighting the Buruli ulcer and the shire will ask Flinders MP Greg Hunt, who is also the health minister, for more money after it decides what actions should be taken.

After the meeting Mr Hunt repeated his earlier contention “that the shire has and maintains full authority over actions undertaken in its municipality”, including the Buruli study (“Public may decide ulcer study’s future” The News 6/8/19).

“My advice to the meeting and the council is that they may want to consider moving to an optin program,” he said.

Under the terms of the announced spraying program residents can opt out, so that their properties are not involved.

“It was also good [at the meeting] to speak to locals about how to better educate physicians and diagnosticians on the ulcer and I look forward to working with the Victorian government and Victorian Department of Health and Human Services to further improve the information the state has and will make available,” Mr Hunt said.

Councillors were caught off guard last month when they found out that three streets in Rye had already been sprayed with chemicals as part of the Buruli studies (“Ulcer study ‘now a trial’ – mayor” The News 31/7/19).

The shire had previously appeared to be a minor player in the Buruli study and the shire officers involved did not tell councillors about the spraying conducted by the Victorian Department of Health and Human Services, the Doherty Institute, Barwon Health, Austin Health, the CSIRO, Agriculture Victoria and the University of Melbourne.

Beekeeper Will Holmes told the public meeting that he threw away about $2000 worth of honey produced by colonies of bees he kept several streets away because he feared chemical contamination from the spraying.

Background information provided to councillors this week said the planned spraying of “pesticides, herbicides, insecticides or other” in October was aimed at finding out how to manage mosquito populations and “one strong hypothesis [of] a link between some types of mosquito, possums and the ulcer”.

However, the background paper stated that the shire was unaware of “any parallel examination of the impact that this spraying will have on the wider ecosystem”.

“The shire is also unaware of any significant public consultation on the use of spraying for this trial that would ensure our community enter into this study with all the relevant information and have had their very real concerns considered properly,” the paper stated.

School upgrade STATE Education Minister James Merlino was at Red Hill Consolidated School last week ahead of a $3.2 million upgrade to the school’s buildings.

While at the school with Nepean MP Chris Brayne Mr Merlino also had a look at the $1.7 million architect-designed modular building that replaced an asbestos filled building.

The new building includes four general-purpose classrooms, outdoor learning spaces and

To book your place please call Annette McKeand 0409 552 790 Susan Berg Susan Berg is the author of “The Girl Who Lived” - a book which is a personal account of her life.

At just 15 years of age, Susan was the sole survivor of a boating accident that claimed the lives of her parents and brother. Orphaned and suffering from survivor guilt, a path of self-destruction dominated the years that followed.

During her darkest years, Susan was faced with challenges such as domestic violence, sexual assault, single motherhood and cervical cancer. Not surprisingly, she also developed a crippling fear of open water. Not even the hottest day could coax her in.

At nearly 40-years of age, Susan was involved in a second fatal accident and escaped death yet again.

The experience caused her to change her mindset

from being a victim to being grateful that she still had a life to live. Over time, she learned to love herself and life again.

After Susan’s life story was published in 2015, she was challenged to face her 30-year fear of water and swim the 1.2km Lorne Pier to Pub. It took Susan 14 months to prepare both mentally and physically and on 7 January 2017, she successfully completed the challenge. She has since gone on to successfully complete other incredible challenges including swimming the English Channel in a four-person relay in August 2018.

Susan strives to share her learnings and amazing passion for life with others. She shares how, by facing her greatest fears and taking on new challenges, she has grown to become a stronger and more resilient person.

Safety conscious pool owners should not have to pay I have absolutely no objection to Mornington Peninsula Shire charging for inspecting safety of pools and spars (“New rules and costs for pools” The News 6/8/19).

But I do object to reliable and cautious pool owners being challenged on safety and not just those who are neglectful.

I feel the costs are outrageous.

Pensioners are going cold hungry and are sick with worry as to where the next dollars is going to be sabotaged from their $900 dollars a fortnight.

It seems to me that once you retire you’re on the downhill slope to heaven.

You don’t have to be a brain surgeon to work out that these charges are nothing but a money gathering rort.

Without notice or consultation we are just told to cough up.

I am quite sure that I am not the only person outraged by this highway robbery.

I am sick and tired of people who have a pool being classified as “the top end of town”.

Most people my age have worked hard all their lives. Mortgaged their homes to buy business and now, in the autumn of our years, we are persecuted to the eye teeth by bureaucratic injustice.

Quite plainly no one gives a fig.

This month’s South Eastern Water account was $32 for useage and $169 for charges and services.

You wonder why people are angry.

I will follow this story with interest.

Noela Sexton, Mt Eliza Editor: Requirements for the three-yearly inspections to be undertaken by municipalities were made by the state government and follow a report by the Victorian Municipal Building Surveyors’ Group which found up to 90 per cent of pools breached safety rules.

United should pay I cannot understand why United Energy did not undertake preliminary work to achieve the connection without disruption to the Mt Martha traders, plus all the residents that were effected by this power blackout as they did on Thursday 25 July (“Power outage outrage” The News 30/7/19).

Surely it could have pre-installed all the underground and any other infrastructure required before the connection to the mains supply on a day before the final connection.

By doing so, all that they had to do was to make the main connection without very little disruption to the community on the day in which they did.

In question is the capability of United Energy’s managers of this project as to whether they were qualified to undertake this type of work so as to not to disrupt the Mt Martha community.

I sincerely hope that a class action may go ahead, as it is so obvious that United Energy has not acted in a very responsible manner which was illustrated by showing their complete arrogance towards its customers.

It is my belief that United Energy should compensate all the Mt Martha traders for loss of revenue.

This belief is owing to United Energy’s incompetence in not having the ability to plan a strategy to complete this work with very little disruption to the power supply of the Mt Martha community.

Geoff King, Mt Martha

Speaking out I congratulate Mornington Peninsula Shire on the decision to let our elected representatives to reasonably freely speak their concerns (“Councillors clear to share their opinions” The News 7/8/19).

This is quite to the contrary of a recent High Court pronouncement on free speech in our public service. In conjunction with recent attacks on our media (print and electronic), and not to forget the relentless persecution of a whistle blower and his lawyer on the unconscionable behaviour of our spooks in East Timor under government instructions, I would say Australia is more than half way on the road to a police state.

But this should not surprise us under a government that has a former policeman, Peter Dutton, as minister for security and Border Force.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

No denying change Climate deniers are still denying that climate change is not happening. The flat earth society is still looking for new recruits.

Some of these people wouldn’t know the difference between an iceberg and an ice cube.

They spout whatever the climate denier guru of the day imparts. Here are a few things I gleaned from the news over the past few days: Greenland’s ice sheet is melting so fast it has caused global sea levels to rise 0.05mm in just one month.

Because of climate change, reindeer are starving to death in Svalbard, a Norwegian archipelago; Polar bears in the Artic are starving to death because global warming is melting the sea ice, forcing them to seek food in outlying villages and causing a state of emergency. Residents are frightened to leave their houses. Kindergartens are being reinforced with security fences to protect the kids.

Because of global warming, tropical diseases such as dengue fever and malaria will travel south to us in Victoria as Australia warms up.

There may have been temperature fluctuations all those thousands of years ago, but they weren’t helped along by human activity like they are today.

The barrier reef is dying and, if the deniers travelled to Queensland, they would see the bleaching for themselves. Climate change is a fact but deniers won’t accept it until they have a property with a waterfront. John Cain, McCrae

Promises not forgotten Cliff Ellen should not fret about throwing the election promises brochure of [Liberal] Flinders MP Greg Hunt in the bin (“Forgotten promises” Letters 6/8/19). I can provide him with a copy of all the promises that Mr Hunt made at the 2019 federal election, an election where the federal member made more financial election promises than in the 2016, 2013 and 2010 elections combined.

Since the state election last year in Nepean, our peninsula is finally getting the attention it deserves from its local representatives.

Chris Brayne, Labor MP for Nepean

Disabled only I am disgusted with the behaviour of selfish, able bodied individuals who continue to use toilets for the disabled in shopping centres.

These include males.

These facilities are meant for people who have special needs and are not able to normal conveniences.

They are not designed for others to spend extended time in to make mobile phone calls.

Name and address supplied, Hastings

Gamblers not to blame Gambling, for the most part, in all forms, can best be described as excessive. Whether they win or lose (for now) those winnings are not fortune’s gift, they are baits, often a pathway to poverty, beggary, stripped penniless, and in want.

Many, on a winning run, generous to a fault.

Alas, a losing streak and subject to (often) severe mood changes, and the blame game, rarely themselves.

A bit of fun they tell me. A mere $20 a day?

Every day, or most days? Maybe one day a week? The big one, the impossible one, beckons, ever a dream, awaiting the lucky run around that invisible corner. We all count our own desires as right No judgement call, merely a comment.

WHAT’S NEW...

Village Glen completes their continuum of care AT Village Glen, we pride ourselves on providing the highest standard of care in every facet of our business; retirement living, aged care and home care. We aim to give older people the full suite of care services to suit them at whatever stage of the journey they are at. Village Glen recognised there was one piece of their care puzzle missing. Village Glen is completing their continuum of care model in 2019. They are doing this by becoming a provider of ‘Short Term Restorative Care’ packages (STRC).

In simplistic terms these are rehabilitation services for our elderly. These packages assigned by the Government, allow Village Glen to provide another level of care to residents of the Mornington Peninsula.

The rehabilitation program is an 8-week journey of intensive care, love and support to an elderly person.

The objective is to target people who are experiencing functional decline and assist them in getting back on their feet and staying in their own home. Basically, if you aren’t feeling your normal self or lacking energy and strength, been unwell and daily tasks are harder than they should be, a STRC package could be for you.

The list of services you can have on a STRC package is almost endless, but to name a few include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, nursing care, assistance with shopping, help with showering, meal preparation and dietary advice. The list goes on.

The best part about these services is that the Village Glen team already have the staff trained and ready to go as all these services are already

offered under the aged care and home care arm of the business. This is just another way for Village Glen to provide tailored, specialised care to clients.

Someone you know may have had an illness or is struggling more than normal and would benefit from the Village Glen team providing a lengthy list of allied health services either in their own home or during a rehabilitation stay in one of our Aged Care Residences, the choice is yours!

The STRC programme focuses on rehabilitation through wellness, reablement and restorative approaches to care. The aim of these new packages is to reverse any decline an older person may be experiencing and get them back on track, assisting people in staying in their own homes for longer, living the life they love.

Peter Nilsson as the Chief Operations Officer for Village Glen explains “Village Glen recognised a gap in its care model and has worked very hard to develop the STRC programme to provide a new level of care to clients, which we will be doing from July 1 2019” Village Glen is proud to be one of the few providers offering these Government funded rehabilitation services on the Mornington Peninsula.

To find out the steps to receiving a STRC package, please call Village Glen today who will walk you through the process and assist along the way.

A helping hand to keep you doing what you love The Village Glen family are passionate about providing quality of care across the Mornington Peninsula with Flexicare Home Support.

Offering Home Care Packages and private in-home services, the Flexicare team are here to keep you doing what you love!

If you are wanting that extra bit of care and support to maintain your independence at home give us a call today.

Too smart to be scammed?

SCAM Awareness Week is happening from 12–16 August. The week provides an opportunity for you to ensure your business is well protected from scams.

In 2018, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission’s (ACCC) targeting scams report found that Australians submitted more than 378,000 scam reports to Scamwatch, Australian Cybercrime Online Reporting Network (ACORN) and other federal and statebased government organisations. Total losses exceeded $489 million which was a $149 million increase from 2017.

ATO impersonation scams reported in 2018 totalled 114,625, with over $2.8 million scammed from taxpayers and over 21,000 potentially compromised personal identities.

Many Australians believe they would never fall victim to a scam and could confidently spot one or know what to do if they were targeted. However, scammers are becoming more sophisticated, and cybercriminals work hard at this time of year to get as much information about you to commit tax fraud in your name.

You can keep your business safe by following these tips: n Beware of anyone asking you to ‘confirm’ your details, don’t share them unless you’ve checked the person you are dealing with is who they say they are. n Keep your devices up to date by installing the latest security updates, run regular anti-virus scans and use a spam filter for email accounts. n Monitor your accounts for unusual activity or transactions. n Contact your tax agent or us via an independently sourced number before entering into a payment arrangement.

If you are ever unsure whether an ATO interaction is genuine, don’t reply. Call the ATO Scam Hotline on 1800 008 540 or visit Scams.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Somerville soldier, Sgt Meldrum, returns from the war Compiled by Cameron McCullough SOMERVILLE extends congratulations to yet another returned soldier – Sgt A. Meldrum, who arrived by the Oxfordshire this week.

Sgt Meldrum has been attached to the 8th Light Horse, and has been with them from the first, seeing service in Gallipoli, Egypt and Palestine. *** THE Westernport Progress Association moved in the matter of the reserved carriages of the 5.30pm Flinders Street, being rushed by passengers between Caulfield and Carrum to the discomfit of those beyond Baxter, for whom they were reserved.

The result being that there is a lot of growling by those deposed and discomfit for those compelled to stand the greater part of the journey. *** COUNCIL Elections Nominations for the Council elections to be held on 28th August closed on Thursday.

In the Frankston and Hastings Shire there will be contests in two ridings: Frankston Riding and Seaford Riding.

Cr Turner was not opposed in the East Riding and Cr Longmuir enjoyed a similar honor in the Centre Riding.

The nominations for the three vacancies in the Frankston Riding are the two retiring members, Crs Oates and Mason and Mr F. H. Wells and Mr J. Nott Marsh.

In the new Riding of Seaford there are five candidates: Cr Hoare, whose office as a North Riding Councillor expired with the sub division, and Messrs W. Armstrong, J. B. Howell, W. H. Latham and H. J. McCulloch.

The coming contests are creating a good deal of public interest and the committees of the various candidates are working energetically to secure success at the poll.

At Seaford on Saturday night a committee was formed to further the interests of the selected candidates Messrs W. Armstrong, J. B. Howell and W. H. Latham.

The candidates named were present and marked enthusiasm was shown.

Mr C. Hunter was appointed Chairman of Campaign Committee and Mr B. Wiltshire, secretary.

The supporters of Cr Hoare and Mr H. J. McCulloch met at Seaford on Monday night and a committee was formed to secure the return of the gentlemen named.

Mr F. Moffatt was elected Chairman of the election Committee and Mr W. Pitt, secretary.

The reports presented indicated that gratifying support would be forthcoming for this Committee’s ticket which consists of Cr Hoare, Mr H. J. McCulloch and Mr W. H. Latham. *** MR F. N Fairs calls attention to his dental notice in this issue. Date of next visit at Somerville, Tuesday, August 19th. *** ON Monday evening at about 7 o’clock the Aurora Australis was visible in the Southern sky.

The color of the sky as seen from Frankston ranged from a deep red glow to a pale pink and lasted for about ten minutes.

The government astronomer states that the records of the magnetic

Instruments show that a very intense magnetic storm was associated with the aurora. *** THE Frankston Branch of the Victorian Protestant Federation have arranged a public meeting and social to take place in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Friday 22nd August.

The promoters have been fortunate in securing the services of the past Chief President, Rev J. C. Farquhar, of Ballarat, who will be the principal speaker.

The Misses Cromb of Melbourne will assist in the musical programme, and these popular vocalists are sure of a cordial welcome.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Curse of the Matinee Idle

By Stuart McCullough There are certain words I’ve grown to like. ‘Express’ now warms my heart whereas, once, it’d have no impact at all. Similarly, ‘light’ means that instead of being stuck in gridlock that moves like a giant metal glacier, I’ll be home at a reasonable hour. Then there’s the word ‘matinee’. Just the sound of it makes me giddy with joy. By that, I don’t mean a ‘matinee jacket’ or ‘matinee idol’ but a ‘matinee performance.’

It is music to my ears that I can attend a live musical performance at a sensible hour and at which, funnily enough, there will be music to my ears as well as lights and, possibly, a t-shirt cannon. I have always loved going to gigs, but as time has gone on, I’ve found it harder and harder to stay up late enough. Consider this: most headline acts at a pub will start their set at 11pm or later. I can barely recall the last time I was awake at 11pm, much less leaving the house.

It’s a rite of passage when you’re young. Attending a seedy venue with like-minded souls to see a band play at a god-awful hour is one of the great pleasures of young adulthood.

By continuing to go to these events, I convinced myself that I’d kept touch with my indie-rock roots and that advancing years had not rendered my musical sensibilities completely redundant. But I’ve been kidding myself. Gradually, the number of musical performances I’ve attended has dwindled. More worryingly, these events are less likely to feature a guitar band playing at the Corner Hotel than they are to feature high school

students in a multi-purpose hall. Suffice to say, the last ‘gig’ I went to was a production of ‘Annie’ and it was in Cranbourne. I did not buy a t-shirt.

I’ve seen some bands dozens of times. You Am I, the Fauves, Regurgitator and the Dirty Three – I’m amazed that they’ve not yet accused me of stalking them. If those names

13 August 2019

sound like a bunch of random words forced to share an Uber due to a twist of fate, I can’t help you. But they mean a lot to me. Suffice to say, I’ve stood in front of these groups countless times, grinning like an idiot and hanging off every shimmering note, thunderous riff and shredding solo they’ve seen fit to dish out.

But somewhere along the way, these groups ceased their perpetual circumnavigation of the country and played far less often. I, too, became much less reliable, preferring a comfortable night in even though that pretty much describes every night at this point. I broke up with live music without even realizing it.

It happened gradually. I would buy tickets to shows and then not turn up.

At the time of purchase, I fully intend to attend. But when the day arrives, the idea of going somewhere in the middle of the night and needing two days to recover seems incredibly unappealing. Neither my wife nor I want to be the first one to suggest it, but somewhere during the course of the day there’ll be a furtive glance, a nod or a wink and, before I know it, we’ve both agreed that binge-watching episodes of Game of Thrones is a better way to go.

We were, perhaps, too excited when we saw it advertised. A gig at the Northcote Social Club – a place we’d once haunted – was hosting a matinee performance by Alex Lahey.

A matinee! There would be no loss of sleep. We could watch live music and return home in time to do the ironing and sort out the recycling. What more could we ask for? We booked immediately.

There were a few things we hadn’t taken into account. As a matinee performance it was, in fact, an all ages show; the term ‘all ages’ being somewhat misleading because what it really means is ‘14’. The room was full of young women attending their first ever gig, standing in huddles and

excitedly clutching phones. We stood somewhere near the back along with a row of parents. Some were clearly there under sufferance. Others were having the time of their lives, delighted to be out of the house even if it meant standing in a dark room with sweaty, excitable teenagers.

In this same room, I had seen countless bands. But here I was, something of an outsider; cast to the fringe both figuratively and literally. Alex Lahey was, of course, excellent. The only awkward moment came when she said she was bringing a very special guest to the stage and I simply assumed she was referring to me. As I began to stride forwards, knocking over 14-year olds as I went, I was about to step onto the stage when another performer named ‘Gordi’ appeared. Gordi, whose album ‘Reservoir’ is quite excellent, was probably the better choice.

Once the whole thing was over, we left the venue and were struck by sunshine. And people. Ordinarily, when you leave a music performance, the rest of the world is already sleeping.

Instead, we joined the traffic on Punt Road and headed back over the river.

It didn’t matter that it had been done in the middle of the afternoon; we had attended a real, live music performance and, accordingly, our status as indie rock music snobs remained gloriously intact. At least for now. This week I’m seeing Nick Cave. At 2pm.

I couldn’t be happier. I will be joined by hundreds of others and I will be comforted by knowing that I…am… not…alone. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Sharks secure top spot on ladder DIVISION ONE

By Brodie Cowburn SORRENTO have all but locked up the top spot on the ladder after a hard fought win against Mornington on Saturday.

Sorrento made the big road trip to Alexandra Park keen to get a win over the bottom placed Bulldogs. A win would have kept them four points ahead of Pines on the ladder with just one game remaining in the season.

Sorrento have a big percentage advantage over the Pythons, meaning top spot was theirs for the taking.

The Sharks started well with a three goals to one first term, but the Bulldogs bit back in the second quarter.

Heading into the main break, Mornington found themselves with a shock two point lead.

Sorrento got things back under control in the third quarter, establishing a five goal buffer. That lead would be enough to see them go on to secure the win.

The Sharks were helped by coach Luke Tapscott, who played brilliantly in the win. The tough midfielder booted six goals in a best on ground performance.

Mornington gave their all in the first half but just weren’t strong enough to defeat Sorrento. The final score was 7.12 (54) to 13.10 (88).

The loss dooms Mornington to bottom place on the ladder.

At Eric Bell Reserve, Pines got back on the winners board with a big win over Rosebud.

Rosebud looked competitive early with a two goals to one first quarter, but they struggled for the rest of the day. The two goals the Buds kicked in the first term were their only two for the game.

The Pythons worked their way into the contest and looked better with every passing quarter. Pines secured an impressive victory 10.10 (70) to 2.10 (22).

Aaron Edwards was excellent for the Pythons, booting six goals.

Bonbeach played host to Dromana on Saturday in what would prove to be a tight contest.

The home side looked the better side early on, but were wasteful in front of goal. Bonbeach had eight scoring opportunities in the first quarter, but could only convert one of them into a goal.

Dromana were more efficient in front of goal, punishing Bonbeach for their scoring woes. The Tigers went into the half time break with a narrow lead despite having half as many scoring shots.

Bonbeach took back the lead heading into the final term, but were eventually overrun by Dromana. The Tigers

had to fight for it, but they eventually secured victory over Bonbeach 4.14 (38) to 6.6 (42).

At Emil Madsen Reserve, Mt Eliza and Frankston YCW faced off in a scrappy contest.

Mt Eliza were playing catch up all afternoon after going scoreless in the first term, Both sides had trouble finding goals all day, but the Stonecats looked the better side.

YCW went into the final quarter with a three goal lead. Neither side managed to score a goal in the final term, meaning the Stonecats secured the win over the Redlegs 5.6 (36) to 8.6 (54).

At Greg Beck Oval, Frankston Bombers got the win over EdithvaleAspendale.

The Bombers looked the better side from the get go, and never let Edi-Asp get too close.

Jarrad Grant showed his class with a brilliant game. He kicked four goals in a best on ground display. The Bombers ended up getting the win 11.11 (77) to 8.8 (56).

With one game remaining for the year, the top five is decided. Sorrento, Pines, Dromana, Frankston YCW, and Bonbeach will compete in finals.

Hillmen enter finals in first DIVISION TWO

By Brodie Cowburn SOMERVILLE locked up a finals spot with a big win over Hastings on Saturday.

The game was expected to be a close one, with both sides coming into the contest with an equal amount of wins. Somerville raced out of the blocks with a five goals to one first quarter, but the Blues wrestled back control in the second term. They were down by five at the main break.

Somerville were the better side in the second half, holding Hastings to just one goal. It was a tough task at times, but Somerville eventually secured the win and clinched a finals berth with a 10.10 (70) to 5.9 (39) win.

Paul Fermanis booted four goals for Somerville, while Brendan Fevola booted two for the Blues. Fevola ended up playing 10 games for the Blues this year for a return of 30 goals.

At Lloyd Park, Red Hill locked up the top spot on the ladder in a low scoring scrap against Langwarrin.

The Hillmen have got the majority of their wins for the year thanks to stunning defensive displays, and things were no different on Saturday. They held Langwarrin goalless in the first half, but they had their own struggles hitting the scoreboard. Red Hill managed just the one goal of their own in the first half.

The game opened up a little more in the second half, and the Hillmen began to find form in front of goal. The Kangaroos struggled all day, and eventually succumbed to defeat against Red Hill 2.6 (18) to 7.7 (49).

Red Hill’s win saw them finish the year on top of the ladder. Their biggest rivals and strongest challengers for the year have been Karingal, who were set to face Pearcedale at Ballam Park.

Pearcedale have struggled badly all year, and the game looked to be a good opportunity for Karingal to get a confidence boosting win ahead of a premiership tilt.

The day didn’t go to plan for the Bulls. They couldn’t get a big win before their finals cam-

paign kicked off, but they will be well rested.

The clash between Karignal and Pearcedale was called off after a pipe burst underneath the ground in the reserves match.

At the opposite end of the ladder, Crib Point were presented an opportunity to finally claw their way off the bottom if they could beat Tyabb.

The Yabbies looked good early, and held the Magpies to just one behind in the first quarter.

It looked as if it would be another difficult day for Crib Point, but they fought back after the first break. The Yabbies had their lead chipped back to just one point heading into half time.

Both sides traded blows in a tight, tense third quarter. Heading into the final term both sides were level with nothing to separate them.

The Magpies were desperate to get their second win for the year, and showed plenty of fight in the final term. They had to work for it but they eventually claimed a narrow win over Tyabb 10.8 (68) to 11.7 (73). The win sees the Magpies move up from the bottom of the ladder.

Around the grounds, Devon Meadows came from behind to claim a good win over Chelsea.

The final score read Chelsea 8.17 (65) to Devon Meadows 10.13 (73).

At Belvedere Reserve, Seaford needed everything to go their way to make finals. They did their part by easily defeating Rye, but other results didn’t work in their favor. They defeated the Demons 13.10 (88) to 5.6 (36), but still fell just short of the top five.

Red Hill, Karingal, Langwarrin, Chelsea, and Somerville will contest finals this year.

Karingal will take on Langwarrin at Somerville on Saturday in the qualifying final. Chelsea take on Somerville at Alexandra Park on Sunday in an elimination clash.

‘Kaka’ for Fiji, Miller time again SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie PENINSULA Strikers midfielder Jordan “Kaka” Avraham is on the verge of making his international debut for the Fijian Olympic team.

The 22-year-old has been playing in annual Fijian club tournaments for the past few years and competed in the Pacific Cup last November against teams from Fiji, Australia, New Zealand and the US. “Kaka” played for Western Sydney in that tournament and the coach of Western Sydney arranged for him to try out with the Fijian Olympic squad.

The Fijian connection is through his father, Israel, and the young midfielder attended a two-week training camp earlier this season.

He has been included in the final Fiji squad which will participate in the Oceania Confederation’s Olympic Qualifying Tournament in Suva and Lautoka from 21 September to 5 October.

“Kaka” is due to fly to Fiji straight after Strikers’ final league match of the season on 7 September against South Springvale.

He has the backing of Strikers’ senior coach Danny Verdun and senior midfielder Grant Lane who both rate him highly and the youngster can’t wait to be involved at that level.

“I’m absolutely ecstatic, over-the-moon,” he said.

“When it was first brought to my attention five years ago that I could actually represent my father’s country, a country that means so much to me, I didn’t think I’d end up where I am now.”

The big news in local NPL ranks is the signing of Scott Miller last week as head coach of Langwarrin for the 2020 season.

The former Fulham and Socceroo assistant joined Langy late last year and has agreed terms for a second successive season.

“In Scott’s first year at Langy he has made a massive impact both on and off the field,” Langwarrin president Tanya Wallace said.

In other NPL news a Football Victoria announcement last week means that Langwarrin now faces some strong local competition in NPL junior ranks.

Mornington and Peninsula Strikers were among 12 new clubs licensed by FV to compete in next year’s NPL under-13, under-14, under-15 and under-16 competitions.

Strikers are currently costing the venture with a view to cutting back significantly on NPL junior fees that can reach $2200 per player per season.

“We are working as hard as we can to make NPL much more affordable compared to other clubs in the area,” club president Adrian Scalpi said.

“Our goal is to make this affordable for families.”

It’s rumoured that Mornington’s NPL player fees could be between $1500 and $1800 per player but like Strikers the club is yet to fix a figure.

Mornington plans to offer six scholarships to junior players next year, two in subjunior ranks, two in community juniors and two in NPL juniors.

In other news Baxter and Seaford United have held discussions about whether they will honour upcoming fixtures against State 4 South opponent Sandown Lions.

In the news: Peninsula Strikers midfielder Jordan “Kaka” Avraham (left) and Langwarrin senior coach Scott Miller. Pictures: John Punshon and Michelle Strachan

Both local clubs believe that they have a duty of care to their players, officials and supporters to ensure their protection after Sandown was involved in an onfield riot a fortnight back that led to the abandonment of its away match with Springvale City at Ross Reserve.

The corresponding fixture between Seaford and Sandown at North Seaford Reserve earlier this season was marred by crowd trouble and police were called.

Sandown is a Sudanese-supported club that has been challenging for the championship but now is the subject of Victoria Police and Football Victoria investigations into its part in the violence which erupted against Springvale City.

It’s believed that Sandown senior coach Gavin Ithier and assistant Roy Kilner have resigned their posts.

Seaford’s situation is complicated by the success of its reserves side currently vying for the championship and understandably the club is loathe to forfeit the fixture.

However club sources say that player safety is paramount and given that Football Victoria may not have completed the judicial process by the time the fixtures have to be played it seems almost certain that both Baxter and Seaford have an important decision to make.

It’s likely that both clubs will invite their players to vote on the matter.

Meanwhile the highlights of the catch-up round just completed were Skye United’s win in State 3 South-East and Aspendale Stingrays’ comefrom-behind draw with Old Mentonians in State 5 South.

Aspendale’s result is a major boost for the promotion hopes of Somerville Eagles.

Both Skye and Somerville now have their fate in their own hands for if they win their remaining games they should be promoted.

Somerville has a points advantage over Old Mentonians while Skye has a significant goal difference advantage over third-placed Whitehorse United.

Skye defeated Elwood City 3-0 at Skye Recreation Reserve last Thursday night.

Skye was without Harrison Michaelis and Mikey Turner, who were serving one-match suspensions, as well as captain Jason Nowakowski (ill), however Alex Rojas and Maxi Avram both returned from injury.

Young Marcus Anastasiou broke the deadlock in the 33rd minute after a cracking drive from just inside the area giving Skye the half-time lead.

Despite being in control Skye missed two giltedged chances to build on the scoreline when Daniel Attard failed to convert from one-on-ones but Mitch Blake finished off his chance in the 65th minute at the third time of asking after Elwood goalkeeper Ben Paris parried the first two attempts.

The game was wrapped up in the 80th minute when Mo Elhassan’s cross was turned into the net by the Elwood centre back.

Skye gaffer Phil McGuinness praised the way his side bounced back from successive losses.

“The lads could have very easily buried their head in the sand and just seen out the last five weeks of the season but there’s unbelievable morale in this team and we’ll take this promotion fight right to the end,” McGuinness said.

Some Somerville players and coaching staff were among the spectators at Saturday’s match between Aspendale and Old Mentonians which was

F R A N KSTO N V S C AS E Y D E M O N S P L AY E D AT C A S E Y F I E L D S AT 2 . 0 0 P M

ROUND 21

officially a home match for the Stingrays.

A venue switch to Old Mentonians’ home ground was approved by Football Victoria’s competitions department effectively giving Old Mentonians two home games against the same opponent in the same season.

Despite this slap in the face to the integrity of the competition Old Mentonians failed to take advantage.

They led 2-0 with goals from Marcus Spivey in the 57th minute and leading scorer Rannesh Krishnan in the 75th minute.

In the 87th minute Aspendale’s Kenan Nuhanovic broke through to reduce the arrears and a minute later Sam Timuska–Carr, who had dominated the midfield throughout, finished off a pass from Adrian Pace to make it 2-2.

Aspendale’s best were Timuska-Carr, Jordy Athanassiou and Peter Dimopoulos.

In State 1 Mornington’s away clash with Mazenod Victory was called off and no doubt Seaford United would have gladly accepted a similar fate in State 4 South instead of being hammered by league leader Rowville Eagles 10-3 at Park Ridge Reserve on Saturday.

Harry McCartney reports that a Matthias Schwellinger double via a strike from the edge of the area and a header from a Dylan Waugh free kick had Seaford 2-0 up after eight minutes.

In the 10th minute Ruben Ichim finished off a great run and cutback by Ali Madul to make it 2-1 and a Glen Farley own goal two minutes later tied the scores.

In the 19th minute Ben Rigby’s shot put Rowville in front and three minutes later Waugh was brought down but the big man struck the resultant penalty against the crossbar passing up a great chance to level.

Madul headed home from close range in the 39th minute and just before half-time Denny Bejan scored from a retaken penalty after Rigby had missed the first attempt but Seaford keeper Anthony Madafferi was ruled to have moved by the assistant referee.

Second half goals from Bejan, Ichim (2) and substitute Daniel Grigoruta (2) completed a dismal day for the visitors who could only offer a Tristan Stass volley in reply.

In State 5 Rosebud lost 3-2 at home to Endeavour Hills Fire.

Eid Sawari’s hat-trick was decisive with Rosebud’s goals coming from Chris Parry and Blake Hicks.

This weekend’s games: SATURDAY, 3pm: Southern Utd v Calder Utd (Monterey Reserve; under-12s 8.50am, under14s 10am, under-16s 11.30am, under-19s 1pm), Mornington v Beaumaris (Dallas Brooks Park), Brandon Park v Peninsula Strikers (Freeway Reserve), South Yarra v Skye Utd (Fawkner Park South), Diamond Valley Utd v Frankston Pines (Partingtons Flat), Sandown Lions v Seaford Utd (TBC), Noble Park Utd v Baxter (Parkfield Reserve), Somerville Eagles v Rosebud (Tyabb Central Reserve), Bunyip District v Aspendale Stingrays (Bunyip Recreation Reserve).

Brooklyn Hustle primed for three-year-old campaign HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou ONE-TIME Blue Diamond Stakes favourite, Brooklyn Hustle, is primed for her racetrack return after taking out a trial at Cranbourne on Monday 5 August.

The Jason Warren-trained filly jumped out smartly with the addition of a barrier blanket before kicking clear under jockey Ben Melham to comfortably win the eighth heat of the morning.

The striking daughter of Starspangledbanner is set to kick off her three-year-old campaign in the Group Three Quezette Stakes at Caulfield on Saturday 17 August.

Brooklyn Hustle is expected to meet a strong field with the likes of the Anthony Freedman-trained and Blue Diamond Stakes winner, Lyre, potentially lining up as well as the Blue Diamond Stakes runner-up, Lankan Star.

Mornington-based racehorse trainer Jason Warren believes the filly is ready to go for her first-up assignment.

“She’s right on track,” Warren said.

“I’m very happy with her. She will kick off in the Quezette and we’ll probably add the barrier blanket to her gear just to help her leave the gates a bit better. It worked well [in the trial].

“Ben (Melham) was pretty happy when he gave her a test, that everything we know is under the hood is still there.”

Brooklyn Hustle made an explosive impression on debut at Moonee Val-

ley last year before finishing fifth in both the Group Two Blue Diamond Prelude and Group One Blue Diamond Stakes.

Warren is hoping the talented filly

can continue to make improvement into her three-year-old season with the Group One Thousand Guineas a potential target in the spring.

“She will be nominated,” he said of

the mile feature at Caulfield.

“We’ll just see where we go after the Quezette. We won’t rule out a trip to Sydney for the Golden Rose. We’ll just see.”
