Park service to remember

A SMALL crowd gathered at Memorial Park, Mornington on Saturday to observe one minute’s silence at 11am and participate in the Remembrance Day commemoration organised by Mornington RSL. Speakers included the RSL’s president, Meryn Cooper, vice-president Paul Patulovic and membership officer Graeme Savige. The bagpipes were played by Lindsay Burgess and the Last Post by trumpeter Joseph Tobias. Remembrance Day (formerly Armistice Day), also known as Poppy Day, has been held since the end of World War I to honour members of the armed forces who died in the line of duty. The one minute’s silence marks the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month when fighting formally ended on the Western Front in 1918.

MPs under pressure over hydrogen Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au NEW efforts are being made to force the state government to abandon its commitment to having hydrogen produced from brown coal in the Latrobe Valley to be shipped from Western Port to Japan. Opponents say the amount of CO2 released by the process raises doubts over Victoria being able to meet its emissions target reductions of 75-80 per cent by 2035; net zero by 2045. Using hydrogen in Japanese vehicles will help that country cut its emissions but add to Australia’s. A debate scheduled in state parliament’s Legislative Council this week over the fate of the brown coal to hydrogen project follows what appears to have been a public relations

visit to Hastings last month by the purpose built hydrogen carrier, the Suiso Frontier. Members of parliament, business and community leaders toured the ship on 8 October, coinciding with a visit by Japan’s Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry, Yasutoshi Nishimura who, while in Australia, was assured that green energy policies would not threaten another source of energy to Japan, LNG. The petition to parliament reminds MPs that the government has said it will further assess the feasibility of “a highly polluting brown coal to hydrogen project in the Latrobe Valley” (“Friends petition aims to stop hydrogen project” The News 4/7/23). It emphasises the unproven ability of CO2 to be forever contained in disused offshore gas wells through carbon capture and storage technology.

“Amid a climate crisis, this new coal project would extend the life of Australia’s dirtiest fossil fuel and according to The Australia Institute, create between 2.9 to 3.8 million tonnes of CO2 per year.” The petition calls for an end to the brown coal to hydrogen project and for the government to “begin the urgent phase out of all existing coal projects with appropriate support for workers and communities”. The state and federal governments have already each contributed $50 million to the $495m pilot project known as the Hydrogen Energy Supply Chain (HESC), proposed by three Japanese companies, Japanese companies including Kawasaki, Sumitomo and J-Power. However, hydrogen made from brown coal in the Latrobe Valley liquified at a Hastings plant failed to

meet expectations when the Suiso Frontier arrived to pick up its first cargo in May 2022. The ship was reported to have taken on less than half a tonne (instead of a planned three tonnes) of hydrogen originating from the Loy Lang gasification plant before adding another 1.6 tonnes made from gas. Adding to the Suiso Frontier’s woes and before disembarking” on its 11,000 kilometre return voyage to Japan, a fire broke out while it was moored at Hastings (“Equipment blamed for fire on hydrogen ship” The News 20/2/23). A video released and distributed online last week by the Save Westernport community group aims to enlist more Victorians to “help fight this absurd and dangerous project”. “It’s pretty much gone under the radar, with opposition localised by

concerned groups in the Latrobe Valley and Western Port. Now we need to grow the campaign and ensure HESC goes no further,” narrator Jane Carnegie says. Using brown coal to make hydrogen and export it to Japan from Western Port was contradictatory to the state government’s plan to build Bass Strait wind farm infrastructure at Hastings. “There is certainly no room for both projects without massive environmental harm,” Carnegie states. “Commercial production [of hydrogen] would involve new coal mining, significant energy and water requirements, producing large quantities of waste and sludge and massive new emissions ... for us; not for Japan. “The project makes no sense on any level. It seems all the costs and risks are with Victoria with no benefits for Victorians.”

Fatal end to kangaroo’s beach visit Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au DOG owners are again being reminded of the need to keep their pets on leashes or under control in public areas after a tragic end for a kangaroo thought to have been chased into the water at Dromana. Wildlife rescuers, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council rangers and police were called to the beach at Dromana beach on Thursday (9 November) morning, when a kangaroo was seen lying on the sand, drenched and clearly unwell. The area was cordoned off to give the kangaroo time to recover and stop it from jumping out onto Point Nepean Road until vets could arrive to assess it. Volunteers from Vets for Compassion and Wildlife Victoria arrived soon after and determined that the marsupial had old injuries to a front paw, recent injuries to its face and eye, and was beginning to show signs of capture myopathy – an extreme and usually fatal response to overexertion. The decision was made to euthanise the male kangaroo to prevent it suffering any further. The mayor Cr Steve Holland said he was disappointed by news of the kangaroo’s plight. “It is very sad. I understand the kangaroo was chased by a dog onto Dromana beach,” he said. “Wildlife Victoria volunteers were called, who darted and assessed the kangaroo. Sadly, the kangaroo was

found to have significant injuries and was humanely put down. “Our officers are following up with possible witnesses to assist with their inquiries. “We want to remind dog owners that they are required to have their pets under effective control at all times.” Arthurs Seat resident Mary Waterman, from the Save Kangaroos on

the Mornington Peninsula (SKOMP) group, said it was tragic that so many kangaroos were being displaced from their home ranges by development, or killed on the roads as they were driven out of their areas. She said the kangaroo had possibly made its way to the beach after travelling through areas that kangaroos had traditionally used as thoroughfares but were now housing estates.

Drug deaths up on the peninsula treatment and other support services. Alcohol related fatal overdose is also the highest since at least 2009 in Victoria, with 173 Victorians fatally overdosing with alcohol as a contributing factor. “Sadly, this is not a surprise. We know, with surging alcohol consumption during the pandemic coupled with burgeoning treatment waitlists and a laissez fair approach to liquor regulation (particularly with the availability of online deliveries) that we would see alcohol related harms increase,” Christoforou said. “This data provides yet another example of how public health reforms such as the decriminalising of public intoxication are vital to saving lives.” Novel psychoactive substances (NPS) are drugs that, while mimicking traditional drugs, are often more harmful. In 2022, there were 46 fatal overdoses with NPS a contributing factor, up from two in 2018. “VAADA with 77 other organisations, has called on the Victorian government to introduce drug checking as a matter of priority to reduce these harms,” Christoforou said. International evidence indicated that up to almost 90 per cent of people discarded the substance after discovering it was hazardous from a drug checking service. VAADA is the peak body that represents more than 80 alcohol and other drug services across Victoria. Windana CEO Andrea McLeod said alcohol abuse was a “societal” issue that was largely ignored but had

Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au A MERGER between two drug and alcohol recovery services will combat drug and alcohol overdose deaths on the Mornington Peninsula, which are climbing back towards pre-pandemic levels. Windana drug and alcohol recovery service is merging with TaskForce Community Agency, a not-for-profit with a focus on drug and alcohol misuse, youth and family services, education and employment. Data released last Thursday (9 November) by the Victorian Coroners Court shows overdose deaths in the past decade are back to alarming levels, with 21 on the peninsula in 2013 before dropping to nine in 2019 and climbing back to 15 in 2022. In contrast, in Frankston - traditionally a high drug overdose region – overdose deaths have fallen from 21 in 2019 to 16 in 2022. Across the state in 2022 there was an increase in overdose deaths — with 549 in 2022 and 500 in 2021. Last year’s figures were the highest since at least 2009, but likely the highest on record for Victoria. Chris Christoforou, CEO of drugtesting advocate the Victorian Alcohol and Drug Association, said he was deeply concerned about a general surge in fatal overdoses in Victoria during 2022. Christoforou said the rising number of fatal overdoses on the peninsula and many parts of Melbourne was

WINDANA CEO Andrea McLeod, says a rise in drug and alcohol problems can be linked to the pandemic. Picture: Gary Sissons upswing in the number of fatal overdoses occurring in regional Victoria, up from 101 in 2021 to 135 in 2022, with options for treatment and support lacking in regional and rural communities. Across the state, heroin related fatal overdoses were the highest since 2000 with the drug contributing to 230 fatal overdoses – an increase of more than 33 per cent from 2021 (173 fatal overdoses). Both methamphetamine and GHB related fatal overdoses have surpassed previous records. Methamphetamine continues to contribute to significant harms and the high death rate is a reminder of the need to invest further in

indicative of a preventable crisis with harm reduction measures such as overdose prevention centres and drug testing urgently needed to save lives. The City of Melbourne again had the highest number of heroin related fatal overdoses – 24 in 2022, almost twice that of Yarra (14). “This outcome is no less than catastrophic,” Christoforou said. The Coroners Court data also reveals that while pharmaceutical substances continue to contribute to the largest portion of fatal overdoses (just under 75 per cent), fatal overdoses involving alcohol and illegal drugs are the highest since at least 2009.

increased since the pandemic. McLeod said there had been an increase in substance abuse since COVID and lockdowns, and services were seeing the results of that now. “People have been at home, not getting out, not getting the support they need and there has been a definite flow-on effect in the community,” she said. “By joining with Taskforce, we can work on this together we can provide wraparound support and compassionate care to vulnerable youth, adults and their families in this area.” In Victoria, all deaths from suspected non-natural causes, including suspected overdoses, are required to be reported to the Coroners Court. Suspected overdoses are recorded by the court in the Victorian overdose deaths register, which is the data source for this report. Victorian state coroner John Cain said overdose deaths remained a “concerning public health issue and we must continue to improve access to supports, treatment and education”. “Addressing drug-related harms requires an understanding of the complexities around access to drugs and alcohol and the drivers of use,” he said. “Through coronial data we can contribute to this understanding – providing vital insight into ongoing and emerging drug-related harms and how best to save lives.” A copy of the report can be accessed at coronerscourt.vic.gov.au/ victorian-overdose-deaths-2013-2022

Road kills rise despite limits, signs and ‘virtual’ fences Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au

Market pitch to protect nature VISITORS to the Mornington Community Market on 1 November had the chance to show off their creative talents, all in the name of protecting endangered animals. Australian Conservation Foundation volunteers invited market visitors to paint, draw and write on the Community for Creatures banner, which will be delivered to state parliament.

The group wants more protection for Australian wildlife, with 2000 plants and animals already on the threatened species list. Members of ACF’s Mornington group spent the morning chatting to market visitors, who were also given the opportunity to write personal messages to politicians.

A SPATE of animal deaths on Mornington Peninsula roads over spring has led to renewed calls for more effective strategies to slow drivers down and keep wildlife off roads. The Save Kangaroos on the Mornington Peninsula group (SKOMP) wants Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to lobby the state government and private road operator Peninsula Link to make roads safer for wildlife and drivers. Cr David Gill said exclusion fencing, wildlife corridors and more 40-kilometre speeds limits in high accident areas could save lives. “Unfortunately, the Department of Transport and private road operators don’t have policies to protect wildlife,” he said. “Unless the issue is driver safety, nothing will be done, but of course wildlife on the roads is a matter of driver safety, so it should be part of their remit.” In Tyabb residents had been calling for the speed limit to be reduced at the bridge end of Balnarring Road to 60kph to help protect koalas, swamp wallabies and native ducks that crossed farmland on both sides of the road. “We all know this is difficult to change because wildlife is not an official consideration for VicRoads,” Gill said. The Department of Transport says it does consider wildlife when designing roads, and that preventing collisions with animals is an “ongoing challenge”. “Minimising impact to wildlife and biodiversity is also taken into consideration during the design and construction of new road projects,” a department spokesperson said. She said the department encouraged motorists to travel at safe speeds, leaving plenty of space between

them and the car in front and to take extra care in signposted areas where wildlife may be more active. Wildlife signs were installed on key parts of the road network where animals were most likely to be active near key roads, and roads operated by the department were inspected “on a regular basis”. Wildlife Victoria was notified of injured or dead animals. “We will continue to engage with those undertaking research to identify opportunities for reducing wildlife collisions on our network,” she said. Peninsula Link operators were contacted for comment. The mayor Cr Steve Holland said protecting wildlife and reducing the number of vehicle collisions involving native animals were council priorities. “We piloted the use of electronic variable message signs in 2019 and found a significant reduction in the number of kangaroos killed in vehicle collisions. We now have an ongoing electronic sign program focussed on our high-risk rural roads,” he said. “We generally have four boards at two locations and rotate them every six months. Currently, they are at Cape Schanck Road in Cape Schanck and Merricks Road in Red Hill. “We also work with the Mornington Peninsula Koala Conservation Group to produce and install static roadside signs alerting drivers to koala activity and asking them to drive carefully. These have been installed at 54 locations for the 2023-24 mating season. “In 2022 the council also installed virtual fencing technology at a wildlife collision hot spot along Browns Road, Boneo. The technology, which has been proven to reduce wildlife deaths, is activated by an approaching car’s headlights and uses sound and light to deters kangaroos and wallabies from crossing the road.” Injured native animals can be reported to Wildlife Victoria on 8400 7300.

THE start of the much-hyped container deposit scheme on 1 November has highlighted flaws in the program and drawn criticism from environment groups and the state opposition. The state government financed scheme provides a 10-cent refund for returned eligible cans, cartons and bottles, and has been promoted as an important component of the recycling system and a way to cut litter. But by the second day of the trial, some container bins on the Mornington Peninsula were too full to receive any more due to members of the public loading them up with cans they had been saving. There have also been reports across Victoria of machines in car parks not working, and locations for drop off sites disappearing off the state website. According to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council, which does not run the scheme, there are 12 collection sites, including reverse vending machines, drop off depots and over-the-counter points across the shire. On the peninsula, the scheme is being delivered by network operator Return-It, with unbroken cans, bottles and cartons being accepted. Glass wine bottles, milk cartons, and bottles containing cordial or concentrated fruit juice are not accepted. There is growing concern that Victorians will turn away from the scheme unless problems are resolved quickly. When the scheme was announced

THE reverse vending machine at Sages Cottage in Bater was full by Thursday, two days after installation, and unable to accept more containers. Picture: Gary Sissons by the state government, environmental advocate the Boomerang Alliance said it needed to be “best scheme maximising recycling; with great convenience for consumers who want to redeem their 10 cents and a credible governance system”. But it says the scheme is disappointing, with not enough refund points and differences in the quality and convenience of the small number of points. The alliance says that container deposit schemes are in place in more than 40 countries or states around the world, with the best ones demonstrating a more than 95 per cent return rate. Opposition spokesman for the envi-

ronment James Newbury said the roll out of the collection points was a massive let down for Victorians who had waited years for Labor to introduce a working container deposit scheme “only to find out the state government has stuffed it up”. “Acknowledging the chaos, environmental advocates, including the Boomerang Alliance, have called for a delay in the scheme’s commencement as government is not ready to manage the estimated three billion eligible beverages consumed in Victoria each year,” he said. The state government says it requires operators to establish more deposit points over the next 12 months.

music lessons, guitars and guitar lessons provided by the group. Guitars for Vets founder Dave Cox said the charity had given away more than 400 guitars since 2017, with some recipients saying learning to play music had been life changing (“Veterans helped to rock on” The News 17/10/23). Port Phillip Conservation Council’s AGM will be held 7pm Thursday 30 November at Chelsea Community Centre, 15 Chelsea Road, Chelsea. For details call PPCC secretary Jenny Warfe, call 0405 825769.

Stroke appeal AUCTIONS, raffles and yacht racing are all part of raising money for the Stroke Foundation organised by Glenn Browne. Called Sail 4 Stroke, the fun race will be held by Mornington Yacht Club on Thursday 30 November. Browne, 58, of Mount Martha, who had a stroke in August 2020, has raised money for the foundation every November since (“Jack Russell to the rescue after stroke” The News 25/7/22).

Gathering fight

Campaign talk THE Victorian National Parks Association’s nature conservation campaigner Shannon Hurley, pictured, will be guest speaker at this year’s 30 November annual general meeting of Port Phillip Conservation Council. Hurley’s role with the VNPA focuses on protecting marine and coastal areas, as well as land based campaigns. She was involved with the Australian Marine Conservation Society’s successful Reef/Stop Adani campaign in the lead up to the Queensland state election. Before that she worked for Parks Victoria as a marine planner, marine project officer and marine ranger. Hurley is a keen scuba diver and “huge fan” of sharks, recently embarking on a business called Salty Tribe, connecting women with the ocean and combining wellbeing, adventure and conservation.

POLICE are investigating the circumstances surrounding a fight at a gathering in Mount Martha on 14 October. It is alleged a fight broke out when a group of males who arrived at the gathering at about 10.30pm were told to leave. One of the victims, a 19-year-old male was taken to hospital, where he required surgery for his injuries. Anyone with information, who has CCTV of the incident, mobile phone video recorded footage, or who may have witness the incident is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000, or submit a confidential report online at www.crimestoppersvic.com.au

Clarification A REVIEW of the electoral structure of Mornington Peninsula Shire is being conducted by the Electoral Representation Advisory Panel, not the Victorian Electoral Commission (VEC) as stated in The News last week (“Indigenous names sought for shire’s 11 new wards” 7/11/23). The panel was appointed by the Local Government Minister and receives administrative and technical support from the VEC.

Talking about weeds VOLUNTEERS from Sunshine Reserve conservation group and Balcombe Estuary Reserves Group have been spreading the word about the need to control weeds. The groups set up a Saturday morning stall at Mount Martha shops to show what weeds can look like and talk to passersby about the dangers they pose to the peninsula’s bushland areas. With an estimated 30 per cent of the Mornington Peninsula’s indigenous vegetation remaining, privately owned bushland, national parks and Mornington Peninsula Shire Council-owned parks and reserves are vital to the survival of native flora and fauna. One wildlife corridor is Sunshine Reserve in Mount Martha, which faces challenges from many fronts, including residential and commercial development, agriculture, pollution, climate change and weeds. Volunteer Angie Fly said people unknowingly planted encroaching or environmental weeds in their gardens, not realising the impact on nearby bushland. The weeds spread into reserves and took over, stymying growth of the remnant vegetation and impacting the ecosystem. “The peninsula is unfortunately riddled with these weeds. We’ve all seen the purple flowers of milkwort or polygala as we drive along the coast. Similarly, the yellow flowers of boneseed (monilifera) pop up along waterways and among indigenous vegetation throughout spring,” she said. “Agapanthus line our driveways, vinca cover our open spaces, and pittosporum grow

Helping at the grassy bowl

vigorously in our gardens with their evergreen leaves. These plants are hardy and grow well in the sandy soil of our backyards, but they flourish in our special reserves too.” The BERG committee and volunteers at Sunshine Reserve spend hours at working bees pulling out weeds and replanting indigenous species to shift the ecosystem back into balance but is seeking more members to join them and other friends groups across the peninsula. “Prevention is, however, better than the cure. All of us can chip in by considering the plants in our gardens and, where possible, removing the

weeds that are spreading into our community reserves and wildlife corridors,” Fly said. Residents who live in a property that backs onto a reserve can check out the list of weeds in the Mornington Peninsula Environmental and Noxious Weeds Guide, available on the Mornington Peninsula Shire website. Anyone who spots weeds can pull them out and replace with hardy, non-spreading indigenous plants. For further information about Sunshine Reserve visit sunshinereserve.com.au Liz Bell

MEMBERS of the Blairgowrie Friends of Mornington Peninsula National Park group have started a three-year project to replace weeds with native grasses and shrubs in an area known as the Koonya Grassy Bowl. The group has been given a $22,000 Melbourne Water Landcare grant to improve the environmental health and biodiversity of the bowl at the Koonya ocean beach end of Hughes Road, Blairgowrie. Friends group secretary Norm O’Bryan said the project was supported and supervised by Parks Victoria and auspiced by Victorian Landcare. “Work has commenced on weeding sections of the bowl in order to create space for native grasses, shrubs and trees,” he said. “In autumn 2024 the group will spread locally sourced seeds of native grasses and plants to improve the habitat for native animals and birds, some of which are rare or threatened species.” O’Bryan said group members hoped local residents and visitors to the Koonya section of the national park would benefit from their work “and that local people can get involved with us in our activities to protect the environment”. He said Rosebud Secondary College students were participating in the project as part of their curriculum. Anyone who would like to volunteer to help can go to the group’s Facebook page, Blairgowrie Friends of Mornington Peninsula National Park, facebook.com/profile. php?id=100087339472443 or email blairgowrieMPNPvolunteers@gmail.com The next working bees (meet at Koonya Ocean Beach lower car park) are: 9am Sunday 12 November; 9am Monday 27 November; 9.30am Saturday 2 December; and 9.30am Saturday 9 December.

Walkers deliver anti-violence message OVER the weekend of 3 and 4 November more than 40 walkers took to the streets and bushland trails of the Mornington Peninsula in a two-day White Ribbon walk that has so far raised more than $2500. The route of the inaugural walk went from Mount Eliza to Portsea and was supported by the Uniting churches of the Port Philip region and a Mornington Peninsula Shire flexi grant. Walkers covered 50 kilometres to make a stand against

violence towards women. Organiser Peter Hough described the experience as “truly humbling”, as the walkers promoted their cause to residents and campers along the way. Money was raised for Restart your Life Retreats through the Tessa Jetson Foundation for women who have suffered violence. “By hosting the Walk for A Cause and the White Ribbon Day event, Mount Martha Uniting

Church is committed to raising awareness of the elimination of violence against women; rallying the community together to collectively address this global issue; instigating conversations with residents and local organisations about ways to change attitudes, expectations and acceptable behaviour,” he said.

Rolls Royce-driven life worth recording

Sky’s no limit to opportunites PHOTOGRAPHERS can find inspiration anywhere and at any time. Last week was no exception, with Adam Richmond looking up and seeing some ominous looking clouds over the beach at Dromana. The mammatus clouds can sometimes signal the arrival of an extreme weather system. They are composed of ice and can extend for hundreds of kilometres. Although not rare, mammatus clouds are eye catching and are also

known as bubble, marshmallow or cotton ball clouds. Meanwhile, staff photographer Yanni is known as a storm chaser, alert to storm reports, especially electrical storms. He has already published one book of storm shots, Beautiful Storm capturing the art in nature’s fury, but admits he might need to consider a series as there is no chance of storms disappearing, or of him not wanting to give chase. Keith Platt

A BOY was so inspired by a luxury car, a Rolls Royce, on the esplanade at Dromana in 1914 that it led to him becoming America’s most celebrated motor car illustrator. A new book The Larger Than Life of Melbourne Brindle being launched at Dromana Primary School on Friday traces Ewart Melbourne Brindle’s career after seeing that Rolls Royce on the esplanade. Arthur and Grace Brindle settled in Dromana in 1905 with their young family and built Sunnyside, not far from the school which the children attended. A renowned decorator and artist Arthur sailed to America to work on the Panama Pacific Expo in San Francisco in 1914. World War I intervened, preventing the family from joining him until it ended. The Launch of the book coincides with the date Grace Brindle and her family left Dromana to reunite with Arthur in the United States 105 years ago. Retired journalist Fred Wild, of Rye, has been researching the artist since “discovering” him in the lead up to the school’s 150 birthday celebrations in 2011. “I discovered online hundreds of car ads - Packard in particular, magazine covers, US postage stamps and his giant Twenty Silver Ghosts book,” Wild said. “I made a PowerPoint show about him for the school’s 150th celebrations but it didn’t end there. “I continued to get information about Brindle from his contacts in America and local relatives and

FRED Wild has written a book about another former Dromana Primary School student, illustrator Melbourne Brindle. Picture: Yanni before long I realised I had more than enough information to warrant a book.” In the years since the school function, an art gallery dedicated to Brindle’s Silver Ghosts has been established in a Rolls Royce museum in Massachusetts featuring among many others the Silver Ghost he first saw in Dromana. The Dromana and District Historical Society has taken possession of his giant Silver Ghosts book and memorabilia that featured in his ads and paintings, much of which will be on display at the launch of Wild’s book.

The Larger Than Life of Melbourne Brindle launch will be held in the newly opened school giving residents an opportunity to see the improvements for themselves. Former principal of the school Ray Robertson will be the MC. “Like me, Brindle never lost his love for the Dromana school and I’m sure he couldn’t think of a better place to finally be recognised for his artistic achievements,” Wild said. The book has been produced by the historical Society and the launch will be held at 7pm on Friday 17 November. “Everyone is invited,” Wild said.

SUNDAY

LUXURY ESCAPES

TEN, 4.30pm

THURSDAY

Budget, what budget? In this aspirational travel show, decadence and luxury in the world’s most stunning locations and hotels are the order of the day. When amidst a cost of living crisis, the finest antidote is perhaps discovering what financial freedom (aka lots of money) affords. In tonight’s sun-soaked season finale, two of TV’s most entertaining hosts, Love It or List It’s Neale Whitaker (pictured) and Andrew Winter, lap up some breathtaking Aussie hedonism. The impish real estate and interior design aficionados bring their jesting banter along for their glorious getaway, basking in the glow of Sydney’s beautiful sights and lounging around on Lizard Island. It looks like the definition of bliss.

BILL BAILEY’S WILD WEST AUSTRALIA

ABC TV, 8pm

Bright-eyed British comedian Bill Bailey (pictured) imports his quirky and curious manner Down Under for this majestic trip. Bustling with sublime cinematography capturing the wondrous and alien-esque beauty of Western Australia, Bailey’s enthusiasm is palpable. Across four hour-long episodes, jaw-dropping and memorable locations are discovered, including the Pinnacles, the Ningaloo Reef and the remote Kimberley region.

SATURDAY

SHAKESPEARE AND HATHAWAY

ABC TV, 7.30pm

If murderous whimsy is a style, this British crime candy has nailed it. Featuring the playful vibrancy of Jo Joyner (above, right) and the droll swagger of Mark Benton (above, left) as Frank Hathaway, tonight marks the end of season four – one of the most watchable yet. Frank is lured onto a hiking walk to ﬁnd a killer, only to be arrested for murder by DS Keeler (Tomos Eames).

FRIDAY

WHERE THE WILD THINGS ARE

NITV, 7.30pm

Maurice Sendak’s beloved children’s tale has been capturing the imagination of kids and adults alike since 1963. And at just 10 sentences long it perhaps wasn’t the most obvious choice for expansion into a full-length feature ﬁlm. Max Records (pictured) plays a disobedient youngster who creates an imaginary world populated by wild creatures that crown the lonely boy as their ruler. Captivating, whimsical and, most importantly, faithful to the book.

TOMKATZ IS BACK IN SORRENTO TO SHOWCASE LIVE MUSIC TomKatz is back at the Sorrento Portsea RSL, breathing new life into the live music scene on the southern peninsula. Located in Hurley Street, Sorrento, and with a newly renovated venue for members and music lovers, TomKatz is once again the home of original live music! Current and past Performers include Marty Rose Band, Screamin Eagles,Brian Cadd, Russell Morris, just to name a few. In the beginning... The Victorian seaside was a popular place for gigs in the summers of the late 60s and early 70s. Hordes of people got out of Melbourne and flocked to the waves of the seaside towns during the day, and needed somewhere to dance the “sand off their feet” at night.

It was the bright idea of well known and well established Melbourne dance promoters Jeff Leech and Derrick Harris to create the original TomKatz. They chose the RSL building, then on Ocean Beach Road, and the now-legendary live music dance venue was born. The very latest popular bands played and gigs were held most nights throughout January, with weekend gigs right up until Easter. Before they became household names, bands like AC/DC, The Vibrants, Max Merritt and the Meteors, The Zoot and The Twilights played to packed houses. “It was the best dance on the peninsula ... I remember hundreds, sometimes thousands, would line-up down the street to attend ... it was the place to be seen!”

Shire’s less than perfect approach to road repairs How come the Romans, with no qualified engineers, could build roads that last 2000 years and are still going strong? {Mornington Peninsula Shire Council] can’t even fill a pothole that lasts one day. I watched a team of four, including one woman, fill a pothole the other day. Three stood around, doing nothing. One tossed a bit of hot mix in the hole then flipped the spade over and whacked it in once and then they all drove away. Elizabeth Drive in Rosebud is shocking. [The council] had a repair team in there last week but it left the major part of the road untouched and there are still huge dangerous potholes all over with circles painted around them. This road needs totally rebuilding from scratch. Not just a spray and patch. Philippe Morgan, Rosebud

Cyclists take care I write to support cycling on the Mornington Peninsula as an ideal way to exercise and see this beautiful area. However, as an older (quite a bit older than average) cyclist, I wish to ask those of you who are younger and fitter to provide some warning when you are about to pass. To be descended on by a fit and fast-moving group of fellow cyclists can be quite disconcerting and potentially dangerous. Wishing everyone a safe ride. Richard Doery, Blairgowrie

Don’t look back We have just had a referendum with the ultimatum of voting Yes or No, with a resounding No vote being the end result for the Mornington Peninsula Shire. Now we find out that our dysfunctional council wants to change the ward names from the colonial era, namely 1778, to go back 60,000 years to the recognised origin of our Aboriginal people (“Indigenous names sought for shire’s 11 new wards” The News 7/11/23). I say our people because, as far as I am concerned, we are one, and not black and white as the extremists say. For the council to want to change the Mornington Peninsula Shire ward names is ridiculous. Is this just a whim of fancy, what will they achieve, and at what cost to the ratepayers? Is it just for the councillors to feel good about themselves? For goodness sake get on the same planet and concentrate on the necessities and needs of the shire instead of living in fantasy land. David Lines, Tyabb

No was not enough Strewth, these No voters of the referendum are the pits. They won the referendum and they’re still peddling their ill-informed claptrap. Before the vote they told us the Aboriginals were going to take our land if we voted yes. The no vote won and now the Aboriginals are still going to take our land (“Lease is not title” Letters 31/10/23/23). Your correspondent is talking through his nether regions. Native title has never been or will be a threat. He is reviving the Tim Fisher “Bucket loads of entitlement” statement from way back when. All the first Australians wanted was a fair go and they’ve been denied it. John Cain, McCrae

Help homeless, not flags Hear, hear to brilliant and eloquent words (“Council’s ‘discriminatory’ choice of flags to fly” Letters 31/10/23). I wholeheartedly agree, and with Cr Susan Bissinger who also queried the flying of these flags (“Councillor to undergo ‘development training’” The News 24/10/23). It is time the shire removed any and all flags in excess to the four stated in the Mornington Peninsula’s charter. The council’s responsibility is wholly to ratepayers purely for local business rather than a voice for the government of the day. Otherwise, why are we paying rates? Council is a local body funded by us, the ratepayers and, as such, councillors should definitely not be pushing a government LGBTQIA+

agenda with our rates and on our time. Coloured stripes on their flag represent MAPS, which is minor-attracted people, which I believe means pedophiles, which is a criminal offence, and most people would be opposed to have our council and our money publicly be seen to support it. The cost of these flag poles is $40,000 each. We have two extra at the three shire offices of Mornington, Rosebud and Hastings, which is $240,000 unnecessarily spent, wasted. As recently reported we now have a record 200,000 homeless people of which 100,000 are in Victoria, that is 50 per cent here in our state. This is a disgrace. What an appalling legacy after nine years of Dan Andrew’s governing. Helping our homeless is a far better use of our rates than flagpoles and flags. It is hard to believe Cr Bissinger was ordered to submit to “development training”. She is doing an excellent job as a representative of her constituents. Is there a hint of misogyny here or is there another reason? Monica Martini, Mornington

Put brakes on tax If someone buys a property in Sorrento for $1.78million to rent out to tourrorists and decides best way to go is Airbnb and rents out for 2O days at $6000. Then they deduct such things as interest, supplies and maintenance of $107,569, one might wonder if $5000 for toilet paper might be a bit much and another $10,000 maintenance cost is a bit high. I wonder how much personal expense has been allocated to the rental on the basis that the ATO will probably never get around to auditing? So, we end up with a loss to set against an executive salary to reduce taxes of $101,569. When applying “proportional negative gearing” principles, only 5.5 per cent of expenses would be deductible, based on days rented out of 365 available, only $5586 of expenses would be allowed, thus a taxable amount of $414 and even more if the ATO did an audit and found all the illegitimate deductions taken. I am guessing that would drive these “land bankers” to rent full time. And don’t get me started on the tax breaks they get when they sell the property. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

There’s no going over the rainbow in bird count ALTHOUGH counting continues and the winner won’t be announced until December, the rainbow lorikeet is leading the field when comes to being the most commonly spotted bird. BirdLife Australia received more than 100,000 lists accounting for more than 3.6 million birds seen during last month’s week-long bird count. Preliminary analysis of the lists, which featured more than 658 bird species showed rainbow lorikeets leading the flock with more than 420,000 sightings. The colourful parrots were ahead of noisy miners (220,000) and magpies (154,000). “The enthusiasm with which Australians have taken to the Aussie Bird Count has been outstanding,” BirdLife Australia's national public affairs manager Sean Dooley said. Over the past 10 years, the Aussie Bird Count had helped raise the profile of Australia’s bird

life and encouraged thousands of people around the country to connect with nature. “In addition to being good for our mental health, bird watching is often the first step towards nature conservation. We can’t protect something if we don’t know how it is faring in the first place.” Dooley said that with nearly one in six bird species in Australia at risk of extinction from threats such as climate change, habitat loss, fires, and invasive species, BirdLife Australia relied on data to inform priorities and insights from monitoring projects such as the count to help shape its bird conservation strategy. The strategy aimed to halt bird extinctions by 2032 and overall bird declines by 2050. To find out more about Australia’s biggest citizen science event go to: aussiebirdcount.org.au Keith Platt

Christian approach It is November and we have seen the running of the Melbourne Cup and Remembrance Day is coming and in the stores there are Christmas decorations and Christmas items already on sale. The stores are starting much earlier to cash in on the Christmas season as they do when straight after Christmas they start selling Easter eggs and chocolate bunnies for the Easter festivities to make more sales and profits and the government gets more GST. At the same time there is an attack on the Lord’s Prayer being said at the beginning of meetings, such as the beginning of state and federal parliaments and council meetings, which was the case recently at Frankston Council. If Australians do not want Christianity then there should be no Christian festivals and Christmas and Easter should be abandoned and the Easter and Christmas holidays should be scrapped without being replaced, which will add to Australia’s productivity. We should stop the hypocrisy and decide if we want to be a Christian nation or non-Christian. nation. Russell Morse, Karingal

PC is boring How I agree with the call to “cheer up” Christmas along Main Street, Mornington (“Decorate Main Street to ‘cheer up’ Christmas” Letters 7/11/23). It has become so boringly politically correct these days. Even the little main street in Korumburra is better than Mornington’s and I’m sure their budget would be a lot less than affluent Mornington.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

It’s The Eye of MacGyver By Stuart McCullough BANG! It was one o’clock in the morning. In the midst of a storm, there was the distinct sound of something being blown around and crashing into something else. It sounded like concrete being dropped from a great height into a metal bin. And when I say ‘a great height’, I mean most likely from space. Or it sounded like that ‘Baby Shark’ song being shot from a cannon. It was the kind of sound that left you wanting to rip your ears from your own head in the hope you could make it stop. As I lay in bed, my eyes round with shock, I reasoned that this cacophonous noise might be a once off collision and I could eventually drift off back to…bang! It was now clear that this catastrophic noise was going to keep happening all night. I did what I could to reduce the noise by inserting earplugs and then listening to music through headphones, but the sound of banging guaranteed a sleepless night. The morning after the storm, things were messy. Debris littered the streets and trees were stripped of their leaves and branches by the wild weather. Whilst my eyes had been wide open for most of the night, that morning they looked like road maps, reddened and smudged, as I was forced to grind through the day in a zombie-like state. I couldn’t understand why my neighbours weren’t all gathering in the street, demanding to know the source of the metallic pounding noise that must certainly have kept them up all night too.

The second night was eerily still and there was no more banging. Whatever it was that had been making that horrific noise had clearly been tied down, thrown out or had done to it whatever needed to be done to prevent further anarchy. I was lulled into a false sense of security when, the following night, the wind and the

banging returned. This time, I decided to investigate. It started with a look out the window. Upon doing so, I could see the gate to the neighbours yard swinging in the breeze. This, clearly, was the root cause of all the noise. I reasoned that the neighbours must be away and nipping next door and shutting the

gate could fix this whole problem. Surely, they wouldn’t mind. The gate opened inwards towards their backyard. In theory, all I’d have to do it walk up to it and pull it shut. I’ve shut shuts dozens of doors and gates in my time, for the most past successfully. But, in practice, there was a problem. My neighbours were away, it seemed, and had taken certain precautions, chief among them, parking a large four-wheel drive against the gate to prevent access to the backyard. From a security point of view, it made sense, but it made getting to the gate in order to close it impossible. By now, I’d slept once in three nights and things were getting desperate. Starting to hallucinate with fatigue, I decided to do some more reconnaissance. Using my ladder, I had a look over the back fence. It was then that the scale of my trouble became apparent. The gate, it seemed, had been secured with an elastic spring rope that you normally associate with camping or a trailer, but the rope had snapped. The metal latch function was too short to secure the gate. All of which meant than even if I had been able to get past the four wheel drive and reach the gate, there was no way to close it from that side. My only hope was that their holiday would be short and they hadn’t gone to Europe for a month. But faced with a bleak, sleepless future, my survival instincts began to kick it. I would need to find a way to

secure the gate from the ‘yard’ side. But how? I’ve never seen an episode of ‘MacGyver’ but I get the general idea. I would need to improvise using everyday household items. I immediately got to work. All I needed was something heavy to hold the gate in place. I went to shed. Partly to see if I could find something useful, and partly to see whether there was enough room in the event I needed to relocate my bed there to get a decent night’s sleep. After dragging my mattress in, I found a large bucket and a pile of bricks. I had an idea. I put the bricks in the bucket. Then I slowly lowered the bucket using a broom handle into the yard next door. Then I hit the bucket with the broom until I’d positioned it behind the gate. It held in place. That night, the wind blew but the gate stayed firmly in place. It was the most amazing thing I’ve ever done. Life doesn’t always go smoothly. There are problems we can’t even imagine that find their way to us from time to time. But it’s comforting to know that when things go wrong, that our inner MacGyver is there to guide us through. No matter who we are, what we believe in or what life has seen fit to throw our way, I now believe there’s a little bit of MacGyver in all us, complete with a small minimullet and Gazman leather jacket, just waiting to spring into action. And with that said; now I can finally get some sleep. Goodnight. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

WHAT’S NEW...

A great day out, for an even better cause THE annual Mental Health Safety Net (MHSN) Golf Day, partnered by SMART Business Solutions, is being held on Friday 24 November 2023 at Mornington Golf Club, to raise awareness and funds to enable the delivery of safeTALK suicide prevention education to our local community on the Mornington Peninsula at no cost. MHSN is a local charity based in Mornington, delivering safeTALK suicide prevention education to our community. It was founded in 2021 by passionate Mornington Peninsula local Michael Simmons. After a number of years working in mental health awareness and hearing of the number of people lost to suicide in our local community, Michael decided it was time to provide the community with greater tools to support each other. MHSN’s aim is to reduce the number of suicides in the community by working with businesses, community, schools and sporting clubs. safeTALK is a 3 hour alertness workshop that prepares anyone over the age of 15 to become a suicide-alert helper. Participants become aware of those struggling around them and learn the skills to be able to ask if they are ok, and gain the confidence to get support for them. Most people with thoughts of suicide don’t truly want to die, but are struggling with the pain in their lives. Through their words and actions, they invite help to stay alive. safeTALK trained helpers can recognise these invitations and take action

by connecting them with life-saving intervention resources. ‘It has been wonderful seeing incredible results over the last 12 months delivering safeTALK to our local schools, businesses, and organisations.’ said Michael Simmons. ‘I often get stopped in the street

by someone who sees me driving around in the MHSN ute, kindly donated by Mornington Mazda, to share how appreciative they are of the suicide prevention training we are delivering, or to say thanks for the tools they learned themselves that gave them the confidence to sup-

port someone who was in need.’ For businesses, safeTALK sessions for employees delivers the tools to look after each other. This increases the eyes and ears throughout the business ensuring early intervention should anyone require it. Businesses investing in safeTALK do so in the

knowledge that safer workplaces ultimately yield better commercial outcomes. Funds raised at the Golf Day will enable MHSN to continue to offer free safeTALK sessions to our local high schools, regardless of their financial situation. The MHSN Golf Day is kindly being partnered by SMART Business Solutions, and it will have a shotgun start with Ambrose format, so players of all abilities are welcome. SMART Business Solutions, in conjunction with Count Charitable Foundation, will double dollar match funds raised, up to $10,000. MHSN is extremely grateful for their generous support, and for the sponsorship and donations provided by a number of local businesses and organisations, including Community Bank Mount Martha. All participants will receive breakfast on arrival, drinks on the course, BBQ lunch, a gift bag with a cap, balls, tees, and a drink bottle, and there will be lots of fantastic prizes to be won, as well as auction items to purchase. Tickets can be purchased at mhsngolf2023.raisely.com and entries can be made as individuals or in teams of four. For more information contact Michael at hello@mentalhealthsafetynet.com.au or visit mentalhealthsafetynet.com.au.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Frankston High School – Mr Hanson explains acres to the department, and then the department in turn, transfer to the council, who would be the committee of management. The president said that Frankston was missing one of the greatest opportunities of its life by not pushing the High school question for all it was worth. He would like to see a strong deputation wait on the Minister. He, as president, would be willing to assist. (Hear, hear). It was resolved on the motions of Crs. Gray and Mason, to ask the Minister to visit Frankston at the earliest date possible, to finalise the matter. *** AT Friday’s meeting of the council a petition presented by Cr. Longmuir and signed by 25 ratepayers of the centre riding was read, objecting to the borrowing and expenditure of such a large amount as £3,600 on Coolart Road. The president said the petition was premature. It should not have been sent in until after publication of the notice advertising the loan. Cr. Longmuir.—You are wrong. It is quite in order in every way. The president read the section of the L.G. Act relating to the matter. Cr. Longmuir: Read on and you will find that after advertising you can do nothing. President: Show it to me in the Act Cr. Longmuir: I question whether you can refuse to take the petition. President: I have given you my authority. Now give us yours. Cr. Longmuir: You are very particular. President: I want to be right, and I want the ratepayers to be right. Cr. Longmuir: You are against

everything. Cr. McLean said the petition was sent in on the assumption that £3,600 was to be borrowed for Coolart Road. It was not proposed to expend that amount on one mile of road, and the council understood that. Cr. Hutchinson: We are only to borrow what the road costs. I have no doubt but that the facts were misrepresented to the ratepayers. President: Cr. Longmuir says I am against everything. I am not against progress, but I would be lacking in my duty if I did not see that the provisions of the Act were being carried out. Cr. Longmuir: The specifications should have been on the table during the past month. President: Never mind the specifications, stick to the loan. Cr. Bradbury moved that the petition be referred back to Cr. Longmuir. Cr. McLean seconded. Cr. Longmuir: Who is to blame for the absence of specifications. President: The whole Council. Cr. Longmuir: Why? President: Because we did not give instructions to our officers. The motion was carried. *** Mr. W. C. Coxhead, the well-known poultry farmer of North Carrum, had the misfortune on Saturday to see his horse bolt, and the cart smashed. It could have been worse. Nobody was hurt – not even the horse. *** That the fire brigade’s fortnightly dances are rapidly becoming quite a popular an institution, is evidenced from the fact that on Monday night last, the attendance at the Mechanics’ was a

This being true, to the Crown’s ministers alone, belongs the right to adjust any injustices, irregularities or anomalies, occurring as they must, from time to time. To place the mild term of strike to the recent acts of lawlessness, would be far too good, for at best the whole deplorable outburst was in reality, a rebellion, pure and simple, engineered by heretics. It was even stated by one of these men (if such we could call him), that he would make the Chief Commissioner of Police bend at the knees. Failure, as a natural course, followed this threat. The Lawson Government had a duty to perform, and it rose nobly to the occasion, dispelled any idea that it was spineless, and those who oft times censured, are now loudest in praise, for the Government has decided, once and for all, that the strikers are not to be reinstated, and the public cannot see any reason why they should be, for in short, these very men who – when joining the police, were bound over to serve, to the best of their ability – have made of the Oath, such a hollow mockery. They have caused a blot which can never be erased, and if such a thing of victory had come their way through our Government backing down, then these strikers would never have known where their power ended, and every little pin– prick would have been made an excuse to strike, and strike again. It has been a bitter experience for all concerned, and has been bought at a very high price indeed. *** From the pages of the Frankston and Somerville Standard, 14 & 16 Nov 1923

most satisfactory one, a large number of visitors from the outside district being noticed. Messrs. Laging and Johnson’s Jazz orchestra supplied the music in their usual efficient manner, and Mr. D. H. Petrie controlled the M.C.s’ department with equal efficiency. Altogether a most enjoyable evening was spent. The next dance is being eagerly looked forward to. *** Police Strike Any argument calculated to uphold the action of the ex-police in deciding upon strike measures as a means of attaining their ends, cannot carry one ounce of weight in the minds of the people. Any, and every argument so advanced, be it painted ever so flowery, must fail miserably when put to the Ministry, with a view to having these strikers reinstated. Grievances, without a doubt, were being borne by the force, and that being so, the men and other measures which could have been adopted to rectify things, but, like so many sheep, they were led to their doom by a decoy of the worst type: the agitator. The police force is looked upon as an intelligent and capable arm of the law, and we suppose, possessed also of much reasoning power, therefore, when trouble arises it is their bounden duty to do their utmost to reason things out; to pacify, and if possible, heal a wound, so to speak. Further more, these servants of the Crown, sworn in under the Oath, are something quite outside the ambit of an ordinary Trades Union, and stand upon a pinnacle by themselves.

Compiled by Cameron McCullough AT last Friday’s meeting of the shire council a letter was read from Mr. Hanson, chief inspector of secondary schools, in reply to one from the shire secretary, relating to a telephone message. Mr. Hanson said: “I telephoned, informing you that money for a new High School at Frankston was provided on the estimates, but I added that I had urged the Minister to reconsider the whole position of site. This the Minister had promised to do, and a visit to Frankston would be arranged later.” Mr. Hanson continued: I might add that my own personal view is entirely opposed to the provision of a site of three acres for a High school, as it constitutes a serious departure from the standard which has been followed by the department for many years. The full area of ten acres for a High school is required for school purposes. However, I do not see any objection to making the grounds, other than those on which the building is situated, available for the public during vacations, on public holidays, and at other times when they are not required by the school. Cr. Gray said that, practically, the position now was the same as in 1921. There was no objection to the department making use of the balance of the land as a play ground. There should be no further delay. The erection of the school should be proceeded with at once. Cr. McCulloch said the difficulty could be overcome if the Lands department formally transferred the ten

Long Island openers impress, Sharks stumble Matthew Gale was brilliant with ball in hand for Flinders. He took 5/58, including the wickets of Manders, Dil Pageni, and Aaron Bardwell. Carrum have set Crib Point a target of 254 to score to win. Liam Hulett was the star of day one. He smashed 109 runs for Carrum, helping them to a final total of 7/253. Delacombe Park stumbled before stumps on Saturday. Chasing 136 to beat Main Ridge, they lost three wickets in nine overs. They will start day two on 3/21.

PROVINCIAL

A MASSIVE 132 run opening stand between Aiden McKenna and Thomas Matson has put Long Island in a strong position against Old Peninsula. McKenna and Matson batted for most of the day. McKenna scored 70 from 161 deliveries, and Matson scored 92 from 199. A late knock of 33 from 29 by Chris Hay helped Long Island reach a final total of 6/260 from their 80 overs. Play restarts at Ballam Park this Saturday. At Pat Rollo Reserve, Sorrento will have to fight hard to defend their total. Sorrento are taking on Pines in twoday action. The Sharks batted first, and were bowled out for just 112 after 66 overs. Nicholas Wilcox impressed early. He took two wickets and ran out one more for final figures of 2/18. With 13 overs left to play, Pines looked to make a dent in their target. Some impressive bowling has thrown a spanner in the works. Jake Wood and Luke Kranzbuhler finished the day with figures of 3/18 from six overs and 2/0 from one over respectively. Pines will start day two at 5/51. Victory is in their sights, but some more good bowling could cost them the win. At Lloyd Park, Langwarrin set Heatherhill a target of 235 to chase down on Saturday. Red Hill scored 161 at Overport Park before being bowled out by Baden Powell. In response, Baden Powell scored 0/28 before stumps was called.

A CENTURY from Thusith Silva was the day one highlight of Moorooduc’s match against Baxter last Saturday. Moorooduc elected to bat first, which paid off. Opener Silva smashed 102 runs, including 14 boundaries. Madushanka Perera also contributed 43 runs to the total. Moorooduc was bowled out for 241 just before stumps. Somerville are on track for a home win against Mornington. Mornington was bowled out for 137 runs on Saturday. The damage would

have been worse if captain Zac Garnet hadn’t scored a half-century. Jacob Evans bowled well, and wiped out the tail. He took 3/18 from 16 overs. Somerville scored 0/60 before stumps, putting them in the box seat for victory. Seaford Tigers will need to score 186 runs to beat Dromana this Saturday. Mt Eliza needs to score 105 runs to beat Rosebud with 10 wickets in hand.

DISTRICT

SEAFORD have set Flinders a difficult target to chase down. Seaford chose to bat first after winning the toss. At 4/50 they looked in trouble, but a massive innings by Jacob Foxwell saved the day. Foxwell smashed 108 runs from 167 balls. His batting partner Scott Manders also played his part - Manders scored 45 from 110. Foxwell’s wicket was the last to fall. Seaford was bowled out for 230 just before stumps.

SOME impressive bowling restricted Hastings to a score of just 96 runs on Saturday. Hastings faced Boneo at Hastings Park on Saturday. Boneo made short work of their opponents, sending them packing for 96 after 64 overs. Boneo scored 1/29 before stumps, putting victory firmly in their sights. Mt Martha have set Pearcedale a mammoth target to chase down to win. Mt Martha scored 302 runs on Saturday. Tootagrook also face a tall task Skye set them a target of 256 to score to win. Tyabb scored 7/265 on day one against Frankston YCW. A half-century from skipper Zach Clements Green helped Ballam Park score a final total of 204 against Rye last weekend. Rye scored 1/13 in response before stumps.

It was the annual Monkey, Rat and Missing Pals Tour held in Moama during Victoria Derby weekend and this year it attracted a record number of attendees, 98 in all. The event’s origins date back more than three decades and it originally was an end-of-season getaway for members and supporters of Langwarrin soccer club. Former Langwarrin assistant coach Neil Collyer took on the task of event organiser 13 years ago and gave the trip a makeover that has seen participant numbers surge. “The Monkey relates to the late Steve Wallace and the Rat was the late Matt Kennedy,” Collyer said. “It had been going for about 20 years when I took over running it and when I first started we had 32 going. “It was basically a lot of the old boys at Langwarrin but I decided to change it to add the Missing Pals bit and I said to people it’s not just about them but also their friends and relatives.” It’s a three-day affair that starts on a Thursday, features competitive bowls and golf tournaments the following day with separate trophies for the winners then Derby Day on the Saturday is all about punting. “We stay at Meninya Palms which holds 110 and I’ve already booked out the whole hotel for next year,” Collyer

added. “Over the years we’ve managed to go to the same places so we’re well known at the venues. “The Border Inn gives us our own room for our meals on Thursday night, on the Friday the golf is at Rich River and the bowls at Moama Bowls Club and the motel gives us the conference room for the trophies presentation that night. “At the RSL we have our own separate room with big screens and TAB machines so we’re well looked after. “I think everyone at these venues respects the fact that not once has there ever been any trouble and they welcome us back each and every year.” Not even floods could stop last year’s tour and local businesses always contact Collyer mid-year to confirm that the tour is going ahead. This year attendees paid $380 each which covered accommodation, show bags and activities and included in

the deal were embroidered polos and caps, free entry to a raffle for a range of donated prizes with $1000 given to the RSL for drinks money and $25 for a meal. There also were bottles of wine given away to those over the age of 80 and the Border Inn provided discounted drinks for anyone in the group who patronised the venue during the three-day trip. “Since we renamed the tour and added the Missing Pals component we’ve had people from other clubs join in and we had five interstaters this year including people from Queensland,” Collyer said. “We had 86 attend last year and we actually had 101 this year but three couldn’t make it. “I don’t know many other clubs in Australia that have those sort of numbers for an end-of-season trip. “A lot of the first timers said how much they enjoyed it and they want to come back next year.”

In State 4 news Chelsea has called for expressions of interest from players keen to try out for the club’s senior and reserves squads for 2024. The Edithvale-based club recently appointed former Scottish professional, A-League and NPL coach Stuart Munro as technical director and last month hired local coaching legend Gus Macleod as senior coach. Interested players should contact Macleod on 0402 122 077. Chelsea currently does not have use of Edithvale Recreation Reserve but is keen to organise practice matches at away venues. Newly promoted State 4 side Mentone held its presentation night at The Dingley Hotel last weekend. Tyler Pollard won the Player of the Year award, Marcus Spivey was Players’ Player of the Year and Golden Boot winner while Frankie Varsamis was Young Player of the Year. It was the fifth time Spivey has topped the scoring charts at Mentone and the big striker has attracted interest from other clubs.

Seaford United had been in contact with Spivey during last season but Mentone coach Jason Grieve is confident that his star forward won’t be moving. “Teams have been approaching ‘Spiv’ for the past few years,” Grieve said. “If he wanted to earn some coin he would have left before now. “While you can’t be 100 per cent sure about returning players we didn’t lose anyone last year and I’m confident about retaining players this year.” In State 5 news Mount Martha’s hunt for a head coach to replace the departed Mark Larner continues. Last week the local club was contacted by a coaching duo with recent NPL experience but nothing came of their discussion. On the playing front star striker Ethan Sanderson won’t play with Mount Martha next season and may not pull on a Mariners’ strip again. He broke his collarbone in the first half of last season’s round 20 fixture against Mentone at Mentone Playing Fields. Sanderson was taken to hospital and had corrective surgery two days later and his surgeon likened the severity of his injury to that of a car crash victim. He currently has 10 pins inserted and they will be removed after nine months before he can participate in any contact training sessions. A further three months of recovery are involved so he expects to be available to play for just the final two games of next season.
