Boater found clinging to hull

Overturned: Water Police, Volunteer Marine Rescue and the blue and white boat that capsized off Mornington early Sunday morning.

Picture: Gary Sissons

A MAN found clinging to the upturned hull of his boat off Mornington, Sunday 17 November, was lucky to be seen by passing boaters.

It was only when Peter Dean and Noel Pixton came closer that they saw the man clinging on with one arm and holding up his car keys, phone and wallet in the other.

The Rosebud man, 37, was taken to Frankston Hospital with hypothermia.

The drama unfolded in moderately-rough water about 200 metres from shore when a top bung failed in the 5.5 metre aluminium plate hull boat which started taking in water coming back from Carrum. By the time the solo sailor had reached Mornington the boat had capsized throwing him into the water.

Mr Dean and Mr Pixton, of Mornington, saw the hull bobbing in the swell at 6.30am while on their way to a schnapper fishing contest.

“We knew something was wrong when we saw an Esky floating away,” Mr Dean said. “Then we saw the man. He had been in the water about 30 minutes and looked pretty spent.”

The pair raced him to Mornington pier where police and an ambulance were waiting. He was rushed to hospital for treatment and later released.

Mornington Volunteer Marine Rescue’s Sean Whelan said he was grateful to the rescuers. “We got the call at 7.30am and were in the water in 10-15 minutes but they had him in by then.

“We took a few hours to right the hull in the half-metre south-west swell and towed it back to shore.” Stephen Taylor

Call to limit road speeds Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

A INCREASING road toll has reinforced Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s call for blanket speed limits rather than just on specific roads.

Former mayor Cr David Gill said an 80kph limit should be trialled in dangerous areas in a bid to reduce road deaths which have spiked on the peninsula over the past 12 months.

So far this year the toll stands at 13 dead and 100 seriously injured. The deaths include six drivers, a motorcyclist, four passengers and two pedestrians on freeways and country roads.

Last year there were two deaths in

line with the long-term average.

Cr Gill wants 80kph speed limits on all narrow and unmade roads throughout the peninsula.

“Mornington Peninsula Shire was the first council in Victoria to sign up to the Towards Zero campaign,” he said. “We have 330 kilometres of dirt roads and lots of them are narrow and winding.

“We have 6.3 million tourists annually wandering around from tourist site to tourist site and that means we have a huge problem.

“Half the deaths so far this year have been on rural roads and half of them have been tourists, and we are coming to the most dangerous time of the year so that figure will go up.”

Among the peninsula’s most dan-

gerous roads are Coolart Road, which has an 80kph limit, Tubarubba Road, Shoreham Road, and Frankston-Flinders Road which the former mayor described as “very dangerous”. There are also concerns about Limestone Road, Boneo.

Cr Gill said the road danger increased when drivers crossed the intersections of roads with different speed limits. Stumpy Gully Road, which he labelled the “most dangerous dirt road on the peninsula” has a 100kph limit but crosses made roads, such as Bungower Road, which has an 80kph limit.

Balnarring Road with its 80kph limit is also crossed by roads that have 100kph limits.

“Why not bring the limit down on all these roads to 80kph over a

wide area, because it’s the area that is dangerous,not just the individual roads,” Cr Gill said.

Dirt roads are not signed meaning the default limit is 100kph.

“VicRoads says people drive to the conditions, but that is simply not true: ask the tradie rushing to an appointment, or truckies on a deadline,” he said.

Cr Gill led a TV news crew along Stumpy Gully Road to illustrate his point. “I was driving at about 50 kilometres an hour. When we stopped, I told them the road actually has a 100 limit and they said they’d thought it was dangerous driving at 50.”

The peninsula runs the gamut of roads: hilly, narrow, dirt, coastal, scenic and freeways.

“We are ideally suited to the Towards Zero campaign, but we need to find more innovative ways to achieve it,” Cr Gill said.

Roundabouts, while effective, are costly, with the cheapest costing $2 million or more. Cr Gill said the proposed Balnarring five-ways roundabout would cost more than $8 million.

“We need to come up with innovative road treatments that cut the road toll but don’t cost an arm and a leg,” he said.

The TAC, police and emergency services, such as the SES and CFA, support a reduced speed limit, Cr Gill said.

“They know our roads are dangerous, with dirt shoulders and trees only metres off the road; if you hit a tree that’s the end of it.”

New mayor ready to serve, make sacrifice SAM Hearn was elected mayor of Mornington Peninsula Shire 2019-20 at the Tuesday 13 November council meeting.

His deputy is Cerberus Ward’s Cr Kate Roper.

Cr Hearn, who represents Briars Ward, said that when he was involved in voluntary work through schools and other youth initiatives he “learnt that we live in an incredible place filled with amazing people”.

“However, over the past three years in which I’ve been privileged to be part of the council, it has broadened my understanding of how many people we have who are constantly looking outside of themselves to give, serve and lead for the benefit of everyone in the community.”

Cr Hearn said residents and ratepayers of the peninsula do not exist in a “bubble or silo”.

“We exist as one small place on earth influenced by everything else that happens on our planet,” he said.

“We face key challenges in developing a way of life that is good for us and good for our planet. It’s a time where real courage and visionary leadership is required. These may seem like far bigger issues to talk about than what is merited in our little corner of our nation, let alone the world.”

Cr Hearn said he agreed with sociologist Hugh McKay that the state of the nation begins in local streets. “The eco-

nomic, social and environmental life of our nation is not driven from Canberra, it’s driven from the way ordinary Australian men, women and children choose to treat each other, choose to think, choose to live,” he said.

“This is why local government matters so much: we have the ability to partner from the ground up and champion communities and ordinary people shaping the future of our nation. In doing so we are not divided by party politics or other agendas, race or religion.

“In local communities on local streets diversity comes together as neighbours and we are excited about that.”

Cr Hearn said he was a “living example” of this diversity after being caught up in the challenge of family breakdown and homelessness 10 years ago.

“After couch surfing for three or four months, people from the wider community, through a local church, stepped in to give me a place to stay both in the short and long term,” he said.

“This is a national challenge that local people stepped in to address for me.

It’s because of this experience that I want to use my life and capacity to pay this forward to others and be a person who makes a sacrifice to serve, shows real empathy and compassion, and has a concern for the most vulnerable.

“I want to use my life and my capacity to pay what this community has done for me, so I thank you that I have the

opportunity to do that as the mayor.”

A committed Christian, Cr Hearn said he sought to “model what I do in life on the example of Jesus and be a person who makes a sacrifice to serve and show genuine empathy and concern for people who are most vulnerable”.

“That is a personal thing for me, but I hope people see that I want to be a person who is genuine and lives for other people in a genuine way.”

He praised “the amazing group of people who currently serve as your councillors”.

“I have seen them serve with integrity, courage and compassion,” he said.

“I’m overwhelmed in their belief in me, that they would give me the honour of serving our community.

“I have also seen that the organisation of council is at its best when we actively partner with our community by listening to them well and working alongside them to champion their potential.

“A strong council can only be built on strong citizenship in the community – and the elections serve to emphasise this central truth of our democracy.

“Thank you to my fellow councillors, my family and, ultimately, the community, for making it possible for me to serve in this role.”

The new mayor congratulated outgoing mayor Cr David Gill for his leadership over the past 12 months.

Dogs seized after deadly attacks Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

Picture: Dolphin Research Centre

Dolphins have a jelly good time DOLPHINS spend a lot of time rounding up food and socialising but researchers were intrigued when they were spotted swimming among a large group of jellyfish.

Common dolphins living near Mornington were photographed for identification purposes when they appeared to be playing with the blue blubber jellyfish.

“It's always a treat to witness their leaps and sometimes full somersaults, as they herd fish or just seem to play,” Dolphin Research Institute executive director Jeff Weir said.

“Their eyesight is good both above and below water, so when they leap

or spyhop they can most certainly see other dolphins and boats. Maybe it's like when we stand on tippy-toes or jump to find our kids or partner in a crowd?

“Puzzling though, was the sight of dolphins playing with the big blueblubber jellyfish that were present in huge numbers. We watched them rub the length of their body against the jellyfish, finishing with a flick of their tail.”

Mr Weir said the jellyfish were common in Victorian waters and “only have a mild sting on their stumpy arms”.

“Who knows? Maybe the dolphins

were enjoying the sensation of the mild stimulation? Sometimes leaps seem to follow a jellyfish rub. Maybe they were happy? Maybe they were trying to remove the stingers?”

Although the blue-blubber jellyfish are commercially fished and, when dried, are considered a delicacy in some Asian countries, the dolphins were not seen to be eating them.

Information about boating rules and protecting dolphins are available at www.dolphinresearch.org.au and sightings of dolphins can be logged at dolphinresearch.org.au or call 5979 7100.

TWO dogs were seized by Mornington Peninsula Shire rangers after chickens and a sheep were mauled and killed on properties at Bittern last week.

The kelpie-type dogs, one red and one black and tan, are being held at the pound while the council investigates attacks at three properties.

Environment protection manager John Rankine said the rangers received reports of two dogs at large, Wednesday 13 November. “[The rangers] patrolled the area in search of the dogs and received further reports of serious dog attacks on a sheep and chickens,” he said.

“Local residents assisted the officers to find the dogs. [They] have been seized and will be held pending the outcome of investigations.”

It is believed the dogs have been involved in previous attacks on livestock over the past 10 months. A Bittern resident lost a lamb and 41 guinea pigs about a month ago. Neighbours are angry that the dogs are being returned home rather than being seized and impounded.

Taman Damai Country Retreat’s Barbara Tipper said she lost four of her eight hens when the dogs jumped a fence to their enclosure at 3pm.

“By the time I got outside they had killed four and another was just surviving,” she said. “They had the blood

lust; they would have killed them all if I hadn’t rushed out and started shouting at them.”

Ms Tipper said she had lost chooks to foxes before but never to dogs. “They were really good egg producers and we will lose out. I’ll be seeking compensation.”

Megan Glover, of Bittern, said one hen was killed and another received a large gash in its back. “I heard all the noise and got out there expecting a cat but saw the dogs scaling the fence,” she said.

“The white hen was thrown in the air and when the dogs saw me they ran into the next door neighbour’s and just stood there.”

Ms Glover lost two of her six hens which she had reared from eight weeks.

Shire rangers apprehended the dogs 4pm Wednesday. One was found still wandering while the other was in its owner’s driveway. Both were covered in blood.

The owner of the dead lamb Chris Phobe, of Bittern, said the dogs “ripped its guts out” in seconds.

He said his alpacas – which would usually guard the flock of four – were in another paddock while the four-monthold lambs were being wormed.

“We’ve only had them a week and we feel really sorry for the lamb which suffered for an hour.

“If I see them on my property again I will shoot them.”

Mr Rankin asked that any witnesses to the attacks contact the council 5950 1050.

Ulcer fight’s new tactic Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

Colour and passion: Artist Perry Fletcher says his latest works are inspired by the attributes of impressionist painters Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh. Picture: Keith Platt

Impressionists’ lasting effects ENGRAVER Perry Fletcher says he has always had a love of the “impressionist painters”, particularly Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh.

While Fletcher’s most notable work, the engraving The Last Supper and Borders, took six years to complete, he has now completed 90 paintings reflecting the influence that Monet and Van Gogh had on his “direction in art”.

These latest works wear completed over 11 months, with Fletcher rising daily at 2.30am.

The effects of Monet’s “colour” and Van Gogh’s “passion” on the Mt Martha-based Perry are being exhibited at Oak Hill Gallery until 28 November.

The exhibition was opened by TV and radio personality John Deeks on Sunday 3 November.

Oak Hill Gallery is at 100 Mornington-Tyabb Road, Mornington, call 5973 4299 or visit www. oakhillgallery.com.au Keith Platt

A NEW way of reducing the breeding grounds of mosquitoes, such as in stagnant water, is being trialled in the fight against the flesh-eating Buruli ulcer on the Mornington Peninsula.

The “source reduction method” is an alternative tactic to those proposed as part of the study aimed at reducing mosquito numbers and evaluating the effect on the spread of the ulcer which has infected dozens of residents since migrating from the Bellarine Peninsula over the past five years.

The source reduction method involves mosquito experts going door-to-door to advise home and business owners on how to identify mosquito breeding sites on their properties and taking steps to eradicate them.

Former mayor Cr David Gill said the council would undertake “broad community consultation” before proceeding with an actual mosquito control in this study.

“We want to see the spread of the Buruli ulcer on the Mornington Peninsula come to an end, but we want to ensure the risk to other insects and wildlife is minimal as we investigate the mode of transmission,” he said.

“We’re committed to working with our community to ensure their views are taken into consideration, as such the mosquito control study has been postponed this year.”

“We’re committed to working with our community to ensure their views are taken into consideration, as such the mosquito control study has been postponed this year.”

The mosquito control study scheduled to start early next year will involve mosquito surveillance, trapping and control activities. It is being informed with advice from doctors, entomologists, council staff and research partners and is part of the Beating Buruli in Victoria project.

This aims to disrupt the transmission of the ulcer and lead to evidence-based policies and guidelines to help stop its spread.

The project is being conducted via the Doherty Institute, Barwon Health, Austin Health, CSIRO, Agribio, the University of Melbourne, Mornington Peninsula Shire, and Victoria’s Department of Health and Human Services.

Mosquito surveillance will continue as planned from this month (November) to April 2020.

About 180 mosquito traps will be installed in the original study area, as well as other bayside locations where the ulcer has been reported. About 45 traps will be installed on private land with the owners’ consent.

“There has been a strong response from members of the community wanting to host these traps to support the scientific study,” Cr Gill said.

The traps will be emptied every fortnight over a 25-week period.

Lead researcher for the project, Professor Tim Stinear from the Peter Doherty Institute for Infection and Immunity, said the traps would not catch other insects, including bees.

“This mosquito trap is used all over the world to study mosquitoes. Even if another insect flew right up to it, it could fly off again when it chooses to,” Professor Stinear said.

“The traps may even assist with reducing mosquito numbers.”

The mosquitoes will be analysed in a laboratory to determine if they are carrying the bacteria responsible for the Buruli ulcer.

Residents can protect themselves by using insect repellents and wearing long clothing. They should cover cuts or abrasions with sticking plaster and wash and cover scratches or cuts received while working outdoors. Those affected should see their doctor if they have a skin lesion and mention the possibility of Buruli ulcer.

Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE devastating impact of raging bushfires, especially in NSW and Queensland, has generated discussion about the effects of climate change and the dangers Australia faces in a warming environment.

Politicians, depending on their political hue, either want to dampen debate on global warming in the emergency, saying it’s “not the right time to talk about climate change”, while others are keen to use the topic as a means of pressing their point on the “new reality”.

Mornington Peninsula Shire’s Cr Simon Brooks said it’s “never a wrong time to speak about climate change”.

“With the year-on-year trend of native forests drying across much of Australia and the declaration of fire seasons being expanded almost on a yearly basis, there is now a stark indicator of the effects of climate change that can actually be seen by people,” he said.

“The discussion around the link and how we mitigate and adapt must be had otherwise no solutions will be forthcoming. It is the inflammatory side of the discussion that should not occur. It should not be a debate – [discussion] should be focused on building awareness and finding solutions.”

Cr Brooks said “those in power”

had a responsibility “to take all reasonable steps to act on that risk”.

“At a local council level, we are doing exactly that. However, I’m growing increasingly frustrated by the lack of awareness shown by some of our politicians at both state and federal level. The insistence of not treating this risk seriously is reckless.”

He said laws in other jurisdictions, such as laws covering workplace safety, made it mandatory to act on identified risk or risk criminal penalties because people’s health and safety are at stake.

“What’s different with a failure to act on climate change?” Cr Brooks said. “Perhaps [it’s] because it’s only the health and safety of the entire living planet that’s at stake.”

Grants for waste MT MARTHA Lifesaving Club and Kunyung Primary School have received grants from South East Water.

The lifesavers received $2100 for beach clean-ups and managing waste containers, while the school was given $2200 for its drainage pollution education program.

The utility has provided more than $30,000 in funding to support community group projects, with 11 supporting environmental and recreation projects benefiting the health of Port Phillip and Western Port bays.

A LARGE crowd gathered at Mornington police station last week to honour the memory of slain police woman Constable Angela Taylor and unveil a plaque bearing her name.

The 21-year-old, who was killed during the Russell Street bombing in 1986, also has a rose named after her which was planted beside the station’s flagpole by retired police veteran Sergeant Neil Fortune in 2002.

MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire Council, Red Frogs Youth Support Program and police are planning to ramp up their services during Schoolies Week, 23-30 November.

This includes setting aside a section of the Rye foreshore for school leavers during the notorious party week. The aim is to give shire officers and police a greater oversight of schoolies’ activities, particularly at night.

Cr David Gill said the increase in services was needed to address the influx of visitors and heightened community concerns caused by last year’s episodes of anti-social behaviour.

“While the shire is not promoting the Mornington Peninsula as a Schoolies destination, we know that school leavers will visit and, therefore, we have a duty of care to those young people while they are here,” Cr Gill said.

“Based on feedback from our community, this year the shire has increased our services in partnership with local police and Red Frogs to help keep everyone safe on the peninsula.

“This year we’ll have additional youth services staff on the ground day and night working closely with local police and support staff from Red Frogs, DanceWize and many others.

“Our main priority is safety and creating a safe environment for residents and school leavers.”

Rye foreshore playground and public toilets will be open to the public throughout this period.

The shire’s Short Stay Rental Local Law is in force and holiday-home owners are advised to be aware of their responsibilities and to think about those they are renting out their homes to, Cr Gill said.

Under the law, homeowners are responsible for inappropriate behaviour by their tenants and could be fined up to $2000 per offence for any breach of the Local Law or Code of Conduct.

Inappropriate behaviour can be reported to the shire at any time of the day or night on 1300 850 600. However, any intervention with the occupants of short-stay rentals remains the responsibility of the homeowner or police.

School leavers travelling to the Surf Coast, Bass Coast or Mornington Peninsula are encouraged to register their attendance via Good Times Great Breaks, which is supported by the state government.

Awards for peninsula’s ‘hero’ wine varieties

‘Moon music’ for asylum seekers THE Southern Peninsula Concert Band is reprising a concert given with the Peninsula Astronomical Society at The Briars historic property, Mt Martha to celebrate the 50th anniversary of man landing on the moon.

The original concert was held on a clear night and the society’s telescopes were made available to the public to view the planets while listening to such compositions as The

Planets by Gustav Holst, Fly Me to the Moon, Star Dust, Star Trek and Star Wars: The Force awakens.

The concert was such a success that the band is playing it again in support of asylum seekers and refugees at the Mornington Peninsula Theatre at 7.30pm on Friday 22 November.

Tickets $20 (concession $15). For bookings call 5976 4306 or pay at the door.

The Southern Peninsula Concert Band was established in 1965, as a not-for-profit community band based in Rosebud.

The band is a regular feature at Anzac Day parades, Christmas carols concerts and retirement villages and rehearses every Friday night during public school terms in the band hall next to the sound shell, Village Green, Nepean Highway, Rosebud.

THE Mornington Peninsula Vignerons Association had made “provenance” awards to wineries producing three vintages of the peninsula’s “hero” wines - pinot noir and chardonnay.

This year’s awards saw the provenance awards go to Yabby Lake Winery, at Tuerong for its pinot noir and Paringa Estate, Red Hill South for chardonnay.

"The Provenance awards were envisaged as a different way of assessing chardonnay and pinot noir, looking at three vintages of a wine in detail, and in the context of consistency of quality, vineyard character, and winemaking style,” show committee chairman Lindsay McCall said.

“As the Mornington Peninsula focuses more and more on individual site characteristics and vineyard recognition, these awards allow the judges to explore the subtleties of terroir in a formal wine show format.”

Chair of judges David Bicknell said there had been “plenty of high quality competition” across the 12 wine categories.

“In the hallmark chardonnay and pinot noir categories top wines were complex, had excellent flow and extension while avoiding the pitfalls of excessive oak,” Mr Bicknell said.

They had been “a delight to judge”.

Now in its sixth year, the awards event was attended by 80 guests at Jackalope’s Doot Doot Doot restaurant, Merricks North.

Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor Cr David Gill praised the contribu-

Meals, wine back on menu after fire THE award-winning winery and restaurant Ten Minutes by Tractor is back in business since being forced to close by a fire 19 months ago.

Some of the firefighters who fought the blaze were among the first to be welcomed by owners Martin and Karen Spedding at the Main Ridge restaurant’s re-opening on Saturday 9 November.

The fire in February 2018, swept through sheds and a storage area, leading to the evacuation of diners and the loss of vintage wines and old tractors (“Wine, tractors lost in fire” The News 27/2/18).

The Speddings say rebuilding the restaurant, with an extra 30 seats, has enabled them to “re-imagine” the original restaurant, which operated from within an existing cottage on the former apple orchard.

The restaurant building has a new kitchen, chef’s table, private dining room and outdoor terrace. A new cellar door and “wine gallery” is also due to open in early December.

The fit out includes vertical timber, stone, olive suede banquets, hints of brass, a black spiral staircase to the new wine cellar, and a solid oak dining table in the private dining room.

“The restaurant is built within the original apple orchard cottage on the property, established by Italian settlers in the 1930s, and although the orchard has long gone, the cottage, an old falling down tractor shed, and a lone ancient quince tree is all that remains,” Martin Spedding said.

Executive chef Adam Sanderson is also promising to “bring a fresh

Climate Change Update Spring 2019 Parliamentary Committee visits the Peninsula Less than three months on from Council’s climate emergency declaration, the Victorian Parliament’s Environment and Planning Committee visited the Peninsula to further the work of its Inquiry into Tackling Climate Change in Victorian Communities.

On Thursday 7 November, Committee members met with former Mayor David Gill, CEO John Baker, Cr. Simon Brooks and senior Shire staff to learn more about what Council is doing and how the Peninsula community can be supported during the climate crisis.

The Committee toured our Eco Living Display Centre at the Briars and John Baker joined senior staff, at the Mornington Chambers, to present the tangible project opportunities for investment into climate solutions, including:

Our Climate Emergency Plan A Climate Emergency is a resolution for immediate and urgent action to reverse global warming.

In October 2019, we heard from more than 500 Peninsula community members who shared input, feedback and ideas to help develop a community led Climate Emergency Plan for the Peninsula.

The Shire is developing the Plan to guide Council’s next steps following the Climate Emergency declaration on 13 August.

For more information visit: mornpen.vic.gov.au/climateemergency

• Sustainable transport options for the Peninsula • Access to the high quality Recycled Water in the South Eastern Outfall pipeline for agricultural reuse and to help drought proof our Peninsula • Investment of landfill levy monies to support a circular economy and improved affordability of recycled products

Do your bit for our environment

Rollo Crittenden, Councillor Brooks, Shire’s Agribusiness and Food Industry Facilitation Officer Stephanie Delaney, Will Fowles MP, Shire’s Integrated Water Management Officer Brenda Lee, Darren Cheeseman MP, David Morris MP, Mayor of the day David Gill and Paul Hamer MP at the Shire’s Eco Living Display Centre.

Peninsula businesses sign up to save on solar Hawkes Farm and Woodman Estate are the latest Peninsula businesses to sign up for Environmental Upgrade Finance (EUF), in partnership with the Shire and Sustainable Australia Fund.

Access to this finance will enable Woodman Estate to install a 74kW solar system and an energy efficient heat. Hawkes Farm will utilise the program to install a 99kW solar system at their Boneo farm.

Richard Hawkes from Hawkes Farm said the switch to solar “made sense, as our highest power use is during the heat of the day.

Keep Peninsula beaches clean Did you know more than 8 million tonnes of plastic enter the oceans each year? That’s equal to dumping a garbage truck of plastic every minute!

Plastic waste kills up to 1 million sea birds, 100,000 sea mammals, marine turtles and countless fish each year. Plastic remains in our ecosystem for years, harming thousands of sea creatures.

Help keep our beaches clean and marine life safe by using the right bin or better yet, enjoy a waste free day at the beach.

If you see a bin that needs attention, report it online at mornpen.vic.gov.au/report-it Septic System Safety Did you know the Peninsula has the highest number of septic systems of any Victorian council? Leaving over 25,000 properties without reticulated sewerage, relying on septic tank systems to dispose of their wastewater.

We encourage an annual health check on your septic system, particularly before busy holiday periods, as a leaking system poses health risks that many of us are not aware of.

Learn more at: mornpen.vic.gov.au/septictanks

Eliminating single use plastics The state government’s ban on lightweight plastic shopping bags is now in place.

Learn more at: vicbagban.com.au In July 2019, Council committed to reduce single use plastics on the Peninsula and set a goal to eliminate use completely in Council-controlled environments.

“Now we can utilise renewable power to drive down the cost of electricity during this peak time.

The Shire has already begun to review the Events Policy to encourage future community events to be more sustainable.

“EUF is a great option for businesses as there is no up-front cash required. It’s a double win for us, not only can we significantly reduce our electricity bills, but we also have a building asset that will depreciate over time”.

Learn more about what Council’s doing to reduce waste at: mornpen.vic.gov.au/wasteinitiatives

Between the flags: Lyla, Trent Maxwell (Maxi) and Jonny at Moorooduc Primary School. Picture: Gary Sissons

Bondi’s favourite son visits Moorooduc THE glamour of Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach could be felt at Moorooduc Primary School last week when veteran lifeguard “Maxi” spoke to students about water safety.

Maxi – Trent Maxwell – is a veteran of 11 seasons on Channel 10’s Bondi Rescue and ranks as one of its most popular personalities. He is the youngest professional lifeguard to work at Bondi.

He spoke about water and beach safety, the importance of swimming between the flags, how to identify a rip, how to safely get out of a rip, how to call emergency services and use floatation devices to rescue those in trouble.

Maxi spoke about his experiences

as a lifesaver at Bondi – one of the most visited beaches in the world – and some of the rescues in which he’s been involved.

He is also a professional firefighter in Sydney and has written children’s books based on his life integrating water safety messages into the narratives.

Teacher Jodie Redman said the students were “really engaged with the presentation and asked lots of questions and were eager to participate”.

“They were thrilled to have an opportunity to have their photo taken with Maxi and get their books signed,” she said.

Moorooduc is the first school in Victoria that Maxi has visited.

CIVIC Reserve, Mornington’s new synthetic 400-metre athletics track and four-pitch soccer centre will be opened on Saturday 30 November.

The ceremony will be 11-11.30am but those interested are welcome to stay to watch athletes using the sports grounds at 350 Dunns Road, Mornington.

A community open day with a free sausage sizzle hosted by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council will celebrate the event and show off new facilities.

The reserve’s newest member clubs: Mt Martha Soccer Club, Mornington Little Athletics Centre and Mornington Peninsula Athletics Club will make their debuts.

“Let’s all get together as a community and celebrate the fantastic new sporting facilities at Mornington’s Civic Reserve,” the mayor Cr Sam Hearn said.

“The Mt Martha Soccer Club has grown significantly over the past few years and now has over 400 players.

The four soccer pitches provide a more suitable home facility for the club.”

The facilities will help athletes compete at higher levels of competition as well as providing permanent homes for the user groups, Cr Bev Colomb said.

The $7 million project was supported through a $3 million federal government community development grant, with the council contributing $4 million.

The works also include irrigation, lighting for the soccer pitches, 243 car parking spaces, paths, stormwater basin, landscaping, electrical upgrades and a roundabout for easier access.

Sculptor Rudi Jass

Wind sculpture in art show MORNINGTON Art Show has signed up German-born sculptor Rudi Jass for its January Art show.

In his Mornington Peninsula studio, Jaas designs and crafts sculptures characterised by clean-flowing lines and elegant forms. Working mostly in stainless steel, corten steel, and copper, his sculptures are often combined with accents of glass or stone.

The pieces are all handmade in small or limited editions and are sought after by architects and landscape designers.

Jass’s designs are displayed in small courtyards, gardens, balconies or amid modern architecture in urban and commercial developments.

His kinetic sculptures move in the wind, adding movement to gardens or patios in seemingly random patterns.

All works on display at the art show will be for sale. They will add another dimension to the paintings, photographs and glasswork also on display and for sale.

The 48th annual art show, one of the largest in Victoria, has its open-

ing night on Thursday 16 January. It will then open daily 10 am-5pm at Peninsula Community Theatre, corner Nepean Highway and Wilsons Road, Mornington.

All proceeds of the art show will support Mornington Rotary’s program of local and international humanitarian projects.

Entries are now being received by artists via the Gallery 247 site.

ON THE COVER

A MASTERPIECE AMONGST THE MOONAHS MAKING a definitive statement in grandeur, this magnificent residence is set moments from Rye’s Back Beach and has been beautifully crafted to maximise full use of the 3877 square metre block. From the street a paved aggregate driveway weaves through landscaped grounds, culminating in a circular parking bay to the front of a three-car garage under the roof line of the home – which in total measures a staggering 511 square metres (55 square). Underneath a high portico, the elegant foyer opens to fully-tiled hallway with a guest bedroom and powder room tucked around to the right as you enter. Across the way is a lovely formal lounge and dining room with a gas log fire set into a striking stone feature wall. Accentuated by soaring ceilings, at least double the standard height, the enormous family zone at the centre of the home showcases three excellent living spaces in addition to a handsome meals area and a spectacular kitchen that glistens with crisp white cabinets and gleaming stone waterfall bench tops; all nicely contrasted by vivid red splash backs and a suite of stainless-steel appliances including a wall oven and convection microwave. The dining area sits comfortably between a fantastic games room, awash with natural light from the high arched windows, and an equally bright home theatre that will both accommodate every relaxation and entertainment whim. If the action inside becomes too much there is a wide timber deck opening from the formal lounge at the front and a paved alfresco patio accessible through the dining room where you can soak up the tranquil peninsula surrounds. Up the sweeping staircase to an incredible sixth living zone which features airconditioning, richly carpeted floors and access to the Juliet balcony seen from the front of the home. Three bedrooms, all with built-in robes branch off from here and there is the main bathroom plus powder room, however it is the astounding master bedroom that is the real star attraction on this first floor. Setting the tone is the enormous ensuite with spa bath and a beautiful parents retreat is an astoundingly extravagant addition that elevates this master suite to six-star hotel class opulence.n

Planning overlay needed to ‘safeguard’ Tyabb airfield I was amazed to read that Mornington Peninsula Shire expects a “consolidated and enforceable” planning permit for Tyabb Airfield to be in place by early 2020 (“New airfield permit early 2020 – shire” The News 23/10/19)..

So, on the one hand, we have a shire that bullied airfield-related businesses into ceasing trading with written threats of prosecution because they had no planning permits. Yet the shire is now saying that the “existing” planning permits will be consolidated?

Is this an admission by the shire that its intimidating tactics were based on false allegations?

Will the shire be compensating these small businesses for loss of income?

The shire now appears to be trying to manipulate the planning permits to change the “as of right” use of the airfield, which has been on its present site for nearly 60 years.

There is a clear need for the shire to employ competent town planners to develop a planning overlay for Tyabb which safeguards the airfield.

The overlay must ensure compatible land use around the airfield.

For example, the current proposal to build a retirement village on the airfield boundary should be rejected as an incompatible land use.

It’s time that the shire lifted its game.

Instead of the [former] mayor [Cr David Gill] running around declaring a climate emergency circus about which the shire can do little, he should have spent more time ensuring that shire resources (and ratepayers’ money) are no longer wasted on bullying and intimidating small businesses, and trying to close the Tyabb Airfield.

Eric Collier, Somerville

Unverified survey I find it incredulous that you published Brewis Atkinson’s unverified not for scrutiny anti-Tyabb airport survey result (“Most Tyabb residents want ‘restricted’ airfield to continue” Letters 23/10/19). A survey conducted by him to support what I believe is an anti-airport agenda has no veracity.

That Mornington Peninsula Shire also allowed what I see as shonky survey results to be put on public record also beggars belief. This has created disunity in the community where there was not before. The small, but noisy and politically savvy anti-airport lobby would serve the community better by demanding the shire release the results of the recently conducted noise survey and advice from a queens council into the airport’s operations and permits. These things have been conducted at considerable cost to the shire’s ratepayers.

If this is done, we could read verifiable survey results and qualified legal advice, hopefully unbiased and conducted in good faith.

Rolfe Summerhayes, Peninsula Aero Club member, Mornington

Restrictions exist Brewis Atkinson states that 90 per cent of Tyabb adults want further restrictions on Tyabb Airfield (“Most Tyabb residents want ‘restricted’ airfield

to continue” Letters 23/10/19).

When Mr Atkinson came to my house to survey me, there were a couple of questions that stood out. One was: If the airfield expands, how would I feel about jet planes being allowed to land there? The second was: If the airfield expands, would I be OK with passenger services coming in to use the airfield 24-hours a day, seven days a week? Of course, I said I didn’t think that would be very good.

I have spoken with more than 300 people over the last month, including members of the Peninsula Aero Club, and many of them have told me that they were asked the same things and responded in the same manner. I see these as misrepresentations, but they are the basis for Mr Atkinson’s statement, and his survey.

What I wasn’t aware of at the time of the survey is that jet planes cannot legally land at Tyabb Airfield and, if he had done his due diligence, Mr Atkinson would have known this as well. As there are no plans to allow jet planes to use the airport, or for a 24-hour passenger service to run out of Tyabb Airfield, I and many other Tyabb residents are frustrated and tired of Mr Atkinson’s continued fear-mongering.

It is interesting to note that Mr Atkinson’s original catch cry was “no expansion”. It would seem from his letter and his latest newsletter, it is now “further restrictions”.

Wouldn’t it be more accurate and honest if the blue signs read “further restrictions – limit noise”?

Paul Mercurio, Tyabb

‘Pathetic’ reactions Sometimes it takes extreme conditions for people to show their true colours. What a fantastic job was done by all emergency service personnel, Red Cross, CWA, forestry workers and many others in last weeks NSW and Queensland fires.

While the loss of lives was tragic, without the selfless actions of many, it could have been so much worse.

And then to the other side of the coin. I only have one word for the comments from Greens’ MPs Adam Bandt and Steele-John, together with the Nationals Barnaby Joyce. Pathetic.

I believe Bandt and Steele-John are a disgrace to parliament and Joyce is not much better. Trying to score a political point while people are fighting for their lives beggars belief.

Get these clowns on a rural tanker in the middle of a bushfire and perhaps they might change their tune (along with their pants) and consider the feelings of others directly affected by these events.

Michael G Free, Mt Martha

‘Regulate weeds’ I write in reply to Bernie Schedvin concerning my misunderstanding of Landcare’s plan to destroy 77 Pinus radiata and the Cypress macrocarpa (“Removing weeds” Letters 30/10/19). I do agree to a certain extent with his accusation.

It is easy to misunderstand Landcare’s plan because it is a smoke and mirrors proposition making it difficult to discern the truth.

Bernie Schedvin adds to the misunderstanding by making the whole proposal sound more like a melodrama. Beware the 77 Pinus radiata and Cypress trees for they are not just “weeds”, they are killers, targeting indigenous species and denying the possums, koalas, sugar gliders, insects and other fauna their food.

Mother Nature and her extraordinary resilience in reproducing species over and over again becomes a cloak and dagger affair. Landcare has labelled that resilience invasive, declaring certain species weeds and defined as a plant that is undesirable in a particular situation. These “plants” must be killed at any cost.

Nature’s resilience is to be celebrated, not condemned.

I am not denying that the presence of any species that reproduces vigorously needs a degree of regulation. However, that can be done in a balanced way, respecting every species, not pitting one against the other.

Regulation of weeds should be guided, not by biased opinions, but by an awareness of the complexity of the situation facing ecological systems.

The recent announcement by 11,000 scientists that “there is a clear and unequivocal climate emergency threatening nature as a whole” should motivate us to go beyond the win or lose scenario of indigenous versus non-natives.

We should look to collaborate with nature, supporting, assisting and wisely regulating as a partner not an overseer.

Landcare has placed itself above nature, defying nature’s work by proposing unnecessary, costly and destructive plans.

Patricia Parkinson, Main Ridge

Protests over inequality Any “democratic dictatorship” such as Australia can only survive if 80 per cent of the population is above the poverty line. More than that and start thinking French Revolution 1789 and root causes.

There are just over three million people (13.2 per cent) living below the poverty line – including 739,000 children (17.3 per cent). Getting close to 20 per cent in case you missed it.

Inequality in Australia continues to increase.

The average wealth of the highest 20 per cent rose by 53 per cent from 2003 to 2016, while that of the middle 20 per cent rose by 32 per cent and that of the lowest 20 per cent declined by 9 per cent.

Political salaries, tax cuts, and entitlements continue to grow at astounding rates, as do wages and entitlements of public sector administrators, while safety nets are cut to the most disadvantaged.

Australia’s top chief executives earn an average $4.75 million — or 78 times more than the average Australian worker.

CEO earnings have climbed 46 per cent faster than typical workers’ earnings over the past 12 months. And there is no sharing of this income growth to those who actually make it happen.

Tax cuts to rich aristocrats and politicians $11,640 ($200,000). Tax cuts to most needy $255 ($30,000); 281 companies (many with multi billion dollar turnovers) have not paid a cent of corporate tax since 2014-15, while they enjoy the billions of dollars of corporate welfare doled out by the federal government.

This is just the tip of the problem, and the gov-

ernment will be dismayed when Australia suffers its own Syria, Chile, Hong Kong and Lebanon type protests.

Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Land needed for jobs Just four Frankston councillors shut down the possibility of more industrial jobs in the city when they voted to not research expanding Carrum Downs Industrial Estate (CDIE).

They blocked investigation into rezoning land next to EastLink for industry. The estate has just 20 vacant blocks left.

The move will restrict growth of Frankston’s economic engine room, a precinct employing 8600 people, many in advanced manufacturing businesses, and generating $3.65 billion annually, one-third of Frankston’s economy.

Council planners and consultants recommended more research – not rezoning - but a report to inform future decisions about finding land for employment.

Ironically, the rejection came just days after the Premier Daniel Andrews opened stage one of Chisholm Institute’s Frankston campus revamp, which will see it become the region’s premier training hub for high-tech trades.

Stage one includes two levels of “real-world trade sites” for students doing courses in plumbing, construction, electrical, and electrotechnology from certificate to degree level qualifications.

The CDIE rejection begs the question: where will these trade school graduates find work?

Not in Frankston – because the council has effectively placed a “house full” sign at our only internationally competitive jobs precinct.

Not expanding CDIE is shortsighted and will damage our economy. It is possible to have quality green wedges and local high-tech industrial jobs. We need a council that is visionary enough to see that job creation is vital to ensure continued prosperity and liveability; a council that plans adequately for the future. One that does not repeat the mistakes of the past, like the decisions that saw high-profile businesses exit Frankston’s CBD. It’s our responsibility to leave the next generation with a stronger Frankston economy, an internationally competitive industrial sector, and local jobs they can be proud of.

Ginevra Hosking, CEO Committee for Greater Frankston

Defective design Improvement works are being carried out along Young Street, Frankston to a $13 million redevelopment of the bus interchange which is less than two years old. Notice has been taken of the most obvious flaw in the design that the road is too narrow.

It is timely to not only improve the road but also the bus shelters which are too small.

Protection for those waiting for a bus is almost non-existent. The rays of the sun, heavy rain and harsh winds cannot be avoided.

I have corresponded with Public Transport Minister Jacinta Allen and Frankston Labor MP, Paul Edbrooke but they refuse to acknowledge the inadequacy of the bus shelters.

It is difficult to understand how this design won a competition from more than 40 entries.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

An outlaw tamed in Frankston Compiled by Cameron McCullough MESSRS Peebles and Strong, the local horse breakers, received from the hands of a client last week, a horse with a most unenviable reputation.

They undertook to have him running in their milk cart inside a week.

The equine outlaw with a Queensland record, provided lively entertainment for the first day or two but very soon he became amenable to reason, and was driven to Somerville and back on the second day.

He may now be seen being driven through the streets like any other reasonable horse.

Messrs Peebles and Strong fulfilled their contract. *** POLICE Court report and other items, crowded out of this issue, will appear next issue. *** TOMORROW (Saturday), a clearing sale is advertised to take place on Mr Renouf’s property, Frankston, at 3 o’clock, the auctioneers being Messrs Brody and Mason. *** THE monthly meeting of the Frankston Progress Association will be held on Tuesday evening, 25th inst, at eight o’clock. *** AT the Frankston Hall next Tuesday night, Capt Bruce, will address the electors.

He will be at Somerville the same day and hold a meeting in the Mechanics’ Hall at 3 p.m.

Full particulars are advertised. *** AT the last meeting of the Shire

Council, held at Hastings, the tender accepted was that of Messrs Hodgins and Gomm for a section of the Frankston-Dandenong Road, starting at the Frankston station.

This tender being for work carried out under the Country Roads Board scheme, will have to be submitted to that body for approval.

The price was £886.

Other tenders for similar works were deferred, pending a fuller meeting of the Council. *** PRESBYTERIAN Church Cantata – To-morrow night (Saturday) the Cantata, “Penitence, Pardon and Peace” will be rendered by the Richmond Presbyterian Church Choir in aid of the Frankston Church Funds. *** ON Friday, 28th inst., the Welcome Home Committee will hold a social at Frankston to welcome a number of our Boys recently returned from active service.

At Langwarrin, on the following evening, a similar function will take place in the Recreation Hall.

See advertisements. *** SOMERVILLE Changes. Mr P. Jewell, boot merchant, of Dandenong, advertises in another column that he has purchased the bootmaking and repairing business at Somerville lately carried on by Mr A. Steele.

A first class stock has been added, and Mr C. L. Bell, the manager, is a thoroughly practical bootmaker. *** ON Monday night, Mr W. H. Burrage, the Farmers’ Union candidate

for Flinders, addressed the electors at Frankston.

The chair was occupied by Cr F. H. Wells, and the candidate received a favorable hearing.

A detailed report will appear in next issue. *** MR C. W. Clemens, who was for nearly 3 years employed at Deane’s Stores, Frankston, joined the A.I.F. in February, 1915.

He was on the “Southland” when torpedoed, and served on Gallipoli, and in France, returning April, 1919.

He is now back in his old position in Frankston.

Mr Clemens is an old bandsman and has been elected to the committee of the re-organised Bank in Frankston.. *** LABOUR’S NEW PLANK. BREAK WITH THE EMPIRE. Mr. Ryan is loudly indignant because Mr. Watt has dared to suggest that the Official Labour Party favours a break with the Empire.

One can almost feel the hot breath of his anger as he asserts that none could be more loyal to the Empire than he.

But, unfortunately for him, the great searchlight of publicity has followed him to the other side of the world, and, in the light of his past record and associations will his protestations now be judged.

He says he is proud to have shaken hands with de Valera. This Sinn Fein rebel was condemned to death for the part he played in the pro-German Dublin rebellion of Easter Week,

and his sentence was commuted to penal servitude for life because of the movement in America, which claims him as an American.

These are Mr Ryan’s “cobbers”, and he was and must be judged by the company he keeps.

Mr. Watt’s suggestion was based upon the fact that, from end to end of the Labour Party’s manifesto, there is no mention of the Empire, no word of loyalty, no expression of appreciation of all that membership in the Empire has meant and still means to Australia; but in their place much talk of “self-determination” and “complete self - government”.

These words, with Mr. Ryan’s signature at the bottom, have a strangely familiar sound.

The Labour manifesto was issued on a Tuesday, bearing the signature of T. J. Ryan.

The previous day Mr. Ryan had presided over an Irish convention in Melbourne, at which England had been attacked with bitterness and hatred which would not have been tolerated in any but a British community.

The electors have a right to ask if it is not something more than a coincidence that Mr Ryan on Monday gave the endorsement of his presence to the anti-English utterances at the Irish convention and on Tuesday issued a manifesto containing no reference to the Empire, but much talk about the need of “self-government”.

Everyone knows that there is no country in the world more completely self-governed than Australia, and that there is no direction in which its practical autonomy could be extended.

When, therefore, the Labour Party talks of self-government and selfdetermination, it either means the severance of the intangible ties that bind Australia to the Empire, or it means nothing.

Either it is a sinister incitement to break with the Empire and run up a republican flag, or it is meaningless clap-trap designed to impress the ignorant.

Mr Ryan has publicly pledged himself to support de Valera in his treasonable attempts to stir up revolution in Ireland, and electors, remembering this, are not likely, to have much difficulty in giving a purpose to his manifesto, which means Sinn Fein for Australia. *** CR. W. J. Oates continues to make a good recovery. He was about yesterday for an hour or two. *** SPORTING. FRANKSTON V. HASTINGS. This match was played on Saturday afternoon. Play began at 2.20pm.

Owing to an exceedingly bumpy and treacherous wicket, high scores were quite out of order, the two innings, one for each side, being completed by about 4.30.

Play was continued till 6pm, an opportunity being given to the Frankston trundlers to try their skill, nearly every member of the team being given a chance. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 21 November 1919

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The Adventures of Rudy Giuliani – Attorney at Large

By Stuart McCullough I DIDN’T want to go. But, looking back, what choice did I have? It’s been seventeen years since I somewhat foolishly loaned Rudy Giuliani my copy of ‘Weekend at Bernie’s’ and I’d begun to suspect I’d never get it back. Granted, I no longer have a video player, but it’s the principle of the thing and I’ve learned that Rudy and principle are no longer on speaking terms, so I had to force the issue.

You’d be forgiven for thinking that Rudy Giuliani – former mayor of New York and President Trump’s personal lawyer – would have an office somewhere in midtown. But you’d be wrong. What most people don’t get is that Rudy is a humble guy who needs little other than a desk, a window and a conspiracy theory to keep him happy. That’s why his office is in Doncaster, behind a Chinese Restaurant called ‘Kung Food’. There’s ample parking, which is a bonus.

I squeeze past the skip bin and a small group of feral cats scatter as I spot a wooden shingle rocking back and forth to the right hand side of the door that reads ‘R. Giuliani Esquire – World’s Greatest Lawyer’. I knock but there’s no answer. The door’s unlocked so I gently ease my way in.

The office is small – a desk covered in papers, a typewriter and a large red phone; a coat rack and, beside it, a wooden perch on which sits a huge multi-coloured Macaw. The bird lets out an almighty shriek and, suddenly, the door to the stationery cupboard opens and a body falls to the floor.

‘Rudy!’ I cry, as a small man picks

PAGE 40

Mornington News

himself up. ‘Were you sleeping in the stationery cupboard?’ He explained he preferred to sleep at the office and that he took great comfort in being surrounded by highlighters, post-it notes and staplers as he slumbered.

The bird – who he called ‘Tootles’ – always told him when visitors arrived. ‘I want my video back,’ I said. His eyes narrowed and he bared

19 November 2019

his teeth, ‘You can’t prove I have it,’ he snarled. The video was sitting on his desk, right next to his ‘thought of the day’ calendar. I picked it up and waved it around asking, ‘How do you explain this?’ It was then his eyes began to glow a deep, demonic red and he seethed something about a ‘Deep State conspiracy’.

It felt super awkward. I decided to

try and make small talk. ‘How’s business?’ I asked. ‘Got many clients?’

Rudy spun around and pointed to a framed picture on the wall. ‘Just one client,’ he said. ‘The President of the United States of America!’

I’ll admit I was a little worried. The picture he was pointing to was not of Donald Trump but, rather, a blonde longhaired guinea pig. Granted, the resemblance was stunning, but a guinea pig doesn’t have access to nuclear launch codes.

‘And what’s the President got you doing? Conveyancing? Wills? The occasional letter of advice?’ The Macaw lets out a shriek as if it’s laughing at my question. Rudy leans forward to the point he nearly falls over again.

‘I can’t say,’ he said. ‘Top secret.’

On the other wall was a map for the Ukraine. ‘Does that giant map of the Ukraine have anything to do with it?’

I asked. Rudy spun his whole body around to face the wall, before spinning back again. ‘There’s no map,’ he said. ‘It’s just a bunch of lines on a page that, taken together, look a lot like the Ukraine.’

I’ll admit I was disappointed – I’ve known Rudy since we spent summers thinning fruit together in Moorooduc back in the 1980s. He’s the kind of guy that’ll tell you all his deepest secrets before you’ve even had a chance to ask. When it came to holding secrets, Rudy was a complete butterfingers. After a moment’s awkward silence, it came tumbling out. ‘I’m doing some back channel work for the President in the Ukraine,’ he admitted. ‘Back chan-

nel?’ I queried. ‘What’s wrong with the front channel?’ Silence gripped the room once more and even Tootles the Macaw had nothing to say. ‘Look over there!’ cried Rudy as he pointed to the window. As I turned, I could hear him making a break for the door.

Quickly, I tackled him to the ground.

‘Confess!’ I cried.

As we were rolling around on the floor, the large red phone started ringing. The bird went totally berserk and Rudy begged me to let him to answer it. ‘It’s my client!’ he cried.

Releasing him from my vice-like grip he scampered across the floorboards on all fours, before snatching the receiver from the cradle. Even though I was on the other side of the room, the caller’s voice was so loud that I could tell straight away that it was Donald Trump. ‘Yes, your majesty,’ said Rudy over and over again.

He hung up and I asked what the Trump-meister wanted. ‘He wants Singapore Noodles and a bucket of crispy pork from Kung Food’, he said, nodding in the direction of the restaurant. ‘And he wants me to head to the Ukraine right away. And that, because of the sensitive nature of my work, I’ll need to avoid catching a plane and stow away on a freighter instead.’ Before I knew it, he was putting on a cape and picking up a Harry Potter wand. ‘Crapius in excelsis!’ he cried before disappearing in a puff of smoke. Tootles shrieked and I grabbed my video, before getting out of there as fast as I could. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Pines post a massive total, Seaford Tigers put in a team effort against Hastings

By Brodie Cowburn

Tiger time: Hastings struggled to make a dent in Seaford Tiger’s batting lineup, with the home team scoring 240 runs. Picture: Andrew Hurst

PENINSULA

MAIN RIDGE have had a tough afternoon in day one of their clash against Somerville.

Main Ridge came in to bat first, and had difficulties. First drop batsman Chris Parker was their best performer with a half century, but he got no help from the rest of the top order. They ended up bowled out for 133, with 26 overs left to play for the afternoon.

Jayde Herrick took seven wickets.

Somerville had no trouble chasing down their target, and ended up at 1/148 at stumps, securing them the first innings win. Brenton Alp was electric with bat in hand, posting 83 runs.

With one day remaining, Somerville have put themselves in with a good shot of an outright win.

Pines played phenomenal cricket at home at Eric Bell Reserve on Saturday, giving their visiting Long Island opponents headaches all day long.

Brad Trotter, Harley Peace-Stirling, and Nick Wilcox all reached their half centuries for Pines, helping their side to a massive total of 8/311 at stumps.

On day two, Long Island are faced with a massive mountain to climb to get a result.

Moorooduc have put themselves in pole position to claim a win over Pearcedale with an excellent bowling performance.

Pearcedale came in to bat first and struggled, ending up all out for just 110 runs.

In response Moorooduc put 71 runs on the board before stumps, well within striking distance to get the win.

Red Hill had a good day at home, batting out the day against Heatherhill and finishing with a total of 9/234.

DISTRICT

A BRILLIANT century from Dewayne Bowden was the highlight of day one of Dromana and Crib Point’s two day clash.

Bowden ended up scoring 105 runs before his wicket fell, helping his Dromana side to a total of 230 all out.

Crib Point came in to bat for nine

PROVINCIAL

overs before the close of play, and ended up at 3/27.

It was a one man show for Rosebud on Saturday, with number three batsman Billy Quigley scoring 93 not out.

Unfortunately for Quigley, his teammates struggled badly. Rosebud’s next best batsman scored just 12 runs.

Rosebud ended up all out for 144.

Delacombe Park came in for 10 overs before stumps, and chose to play it safe. They will restart on day two from 0/8.

At Belvedere Reserve, Seaford Tigers put together a brilliant team performance to set their Hastings opponents a target of 240 to chase down.

Each of the Tigers’ batsmen on the day reached double digit figures.

Mitch White was top scorer with 58.

Carrum faced some troubles in

their clash against Mt Martha. On day two, Mt Martha will need to score 134 to get the win.

SUB DISTRICT

BONEO have put themselves in a good position to claim the win in their two day clash against Carrum Downs.

Boneo won the toss and chose to bat first, and at 6/48 looked in a world of trouble. A 108 run partnership put them back in a good spot.

Jarvis Anderson was best of Boneo’s batsmen, hitting 13 fours and scoring 77 batting at number eight. Flinn Shiel was also impressive, scoring 60.

Boneo ended up all out for 220, but made the most of the seven overs they were given with ball in hand before the close of play.

Carrum Downs lost both openers for ducks, and finished at 2/7 at stumps.

At Bunguyan Reserve, Tyabb performed well and set Balnarring a difficult target to chase down on day two.

Opener Michael Edwards got things started on the right foot for the Yabbies with an impressive half century.

Tyabb finished at 253 at stumps.

Rowan Walker cleaned up Tyabb’s tail end to stop them from inflicting further damage. He posted figures of 5/44 off just over six overs.

At Kananook Reserve, Seaford put 239 runs on the board against Tootgarook.

Tootgarook have a bit of work to do on day two, and will restart at 0/4.

Ballam Park were impressive in the first day of their clash against Skye, finishing with a total of 280 runs.

JUSTIN Grant scored a career best 135 runs last weekend for Mt Eliza to help his side to a good total against Baden Powell.

The two sides faced off at Overport Oval, with Mt Eliza winning the toss and choosing to bat first. Grant was by far Mt Eliza’s best batsman, as he helped his side set a target of 254 for Baden Powell to chase down.

Taylor Harrison was Baden Powell’s best bowler on the day, taking a five wicket haul.

Cory Harris scored a magnificent century for Sorrento in their clash against Baxter.

Sorrento made the big road trip down to tackle Baxter, and chose to bat first after winning the toss. Harris made the biggest impact, and Sorrento set a score of 222 before being bowled out.

Yohan Maddege managed to pick up five wickets, and his Baxter teammates will restart on day two from 0/6.

Langwarrin’s clash against Flinders looks like it may go down to the wire on day two, after both sides had difficulties with the bat on Saturday.

Flinders chose to bat first, and outside of a half century from Kane Hawkins, struggled to make an impact. They struggled to deal with the bowling of Matt Prosser, who took 5/39.

Flinders ended up all out for 134.

Langwarrin came in to bat for 14 overs before stumps and had their own troubles, finishing at 3/38.

At Alexandra Park, Mornington will have to chase down Peninsula OB’s target of 248 to get a result. The home side will restart at 2/25 on day two.

Keeping up with the Joneses SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie THANK goodness Lisa Jones likes soccer.

Her husband has been immersed in the sport since childhood, their two sons are following in their father’s footsteps, their oldest daughter already has played for Victoria and the matriarch of the family is a team manager at one of this state’s elite women’s clubs.

Then there is Mia, the youngest Jones sibling. She doesn’t play soccer. Writing and acting are her passions and like her brothers and sister she is talented in her chosen pursuits.

It should come as no surprise that the soccer-playing Jones’ children excel at sport.

They were genetically programmed for success given their father’s achievements as a goalkeeper, their mother’s swimming and netball prowess and an ex-VFL player in Ron Dean as a grandfather.

Family patriarch Chris Jones retired from “serious” soccer in September 2010 after a storied career highlighted by the three games he played for South Melbourne in the 2000 FIFA World Club Championship against Manchester United, Necaxa and Vasco da Gama in Rio de Janeiro’s famous Maracana stadium.

He played professionally with Brighton and Hove Albion in England and his latter seasons were spent at Langwarrin where he now watches his sons, Colby and Brodie, playing for the same club and doing so with distinction.

“As a father to see the two boys do so well at Langwarrin makes me so proud,” Chris Jones said.

“It’s a club I’ve been involved with for a long time now and it’s such a brilliant club.

“That’s what soccer should be all about, kids starting young at a club and going all the way through the ranks just like Ben Caffrey (under-20s assistant coach) did.”

Colby, 18, is a goalkeeper and has won three best and fairest awards in successive seasons starting with the 2017 honour when playing alongside his father in one of Langy’s Bayside League teams.

Last year he won Langy’s under-18 best and fairest and this year he was best and fairest in the under-20s as well as players’ player of the year.

He has represented Victoria in futsal and recently trialled with A-League newcomer Western United.

He was announced last month as Langy’s second senior squad keeper.

Brodie Jones, 16, is a defender who

Soccer quartet: From left, Brodie Jones, Chris Jones, Alex Jones and Colby Jones. Picture: Lisa Jones.

started most under-20 games for Langy last season as a 15-year-old, has won a best and fairest at Springvale White Eagles and trialled with Melbourne Victory this year.

For the past few seasons he has been involved with the Talent Identification and Development Program, a Football Victoria initiative to identify and develop talented players for Victorian and Australian representative squads.

Another Jones sibling, Alex, 14, is the oldest of two girls in the family and already has represented Victoria in national underage championships and at schoolgirl level.

She was Southern United’s goalkeeper of the year in 2019 having made her senior debut off the bench but she also is an excellent outfield player and is likely to mix playing roles next season.

She holds Southern’s games record and her loyalty to her club can never be questioned.

“Alex has had the opportunity to join the National Training Centre’s program here in Victoria but she’s always turned them down to stay with Southern even though our club’s been struggling,” Lisa Jones said.

“She even was asked on the plane coming back from the nationals this year if she was happy at Southern and would she come to the NTC but she stuck solid and told them she wanted to

stay at Southern.

“Deb Nichols (Southern’s under-16s coach) and Emma Bracken (under-14s coach) have done a lot for Alex and she stayed loyal to them.”

But brothers and sister look destined to take different paths in their soccer journeys.

Colby and Brodie would jump at the chance to forge careers in the sport that consumes them whereas Alex is keen to focus on her academic interests.

“Going overseas with Dougie Hodgson and the under-16s this year really opened up Brodie’s eyes and he’s found a new passion for the game since he’s come home from that tour,” Chris Jones said.

And now that Colby Jones is licenced he’s able to drive his brother to training and to matches which takes the onus off his parents to arrange transport.

Chris Jones is Manager, Finance and Insurance with Mercedes-Benz Berwick and weekend work is the norm.

“The most difficult times were when they were younger and had to go to three different venues while Chris was working,” Lisa Jones said.

“But we all pitched in and worked around it thanks to grandparents and friends.”

Next season there will be four Jones family members in action as Chris Jones had corrective surgery to a knee

earlier this year and plans to pull the boots back on.

“I’ll be back next year in the over35s playing up front along with Caleb (Nicholes) and ‘Sodda’ (Simon O’Donnell) which should be an interesting strike force.”

But that won’t be the focus of his attention on matchdays.

He’ll remain zeroed in on the achievements of three talented young players as the latest generation of the Jones family continues a tradition of high performance and soccer success.

Meanwhile the revamp of Langy’s senior squad continues with news of a number of triallists spotted at Lawton Park last week.

They include John MacLean (striker, Moreland Zebras) and Slaven Vranesevic (attacking midfielder, Bulleen).

In other news former Mornington keeper Ryan Scott has penned a threemonth injury replacement deal with new A-League side Western United.

Scott has been mentored by current Langwarrin goalkeeping coach and Melbourne Knights Team of the Century star Peter Blasby.

The pair worked together at Mornington and NPL heavyweight Bentleigh Greens.

Scott has been with the Greens for the past five years and has bided his time waiting for a chance to achieve a

long-held A-League ambition.

He trialled with Newcastle Jets last year and despite impressing head coach Ernie Merrick was overlooked in favour of a more experienced keeper.

“I’ve worked hard over the years and I suppose the hard work has paid off,” Scott said.

“I go with Bentleigh’s blessing and I can’t thank them enough for the opportunity they have given me.”

In State 1 news Mornington has missed out on signing Andy Stubley from Casey Comets.

Stubley joined Box Hill United last week.

In State 2 news Skye United is considering signing a couple of overseas players through player recruitment agency Soccer Smart.

The local club has dealt with Soccer Smart before having brought out English recruit Jacob Scotte-Hatherly for the 2017 season.

Skye starts pre-season training on Tuesday 26 November at 6.30pm at Botany Park Reserve in Carrum Downs.

In State 3 news Frankston Pines announced last week that it has re-signed CJ Hodgson for the 2020 season.

Pines had fielded enquiries about Hodgson from NPL clubs Moreland City, Goulburn Valley Suns, Springvale White Eagles and Eastern Lions.

The versatile Hodgson had also been linked with Skye United and Seaford United.

Hodgson and club legend Craig Lewis share the Pines record of the most Golden Boot awards (six) and Hodgson has an excellent chance to claim that honour outright.

Last week the Victorian Multicultural Sports Association, a Fijian community group, announced on its facebook page that Fiji international goalkeeper Alzaar Alam would be joining Pines for the 2020 season.

The VMSA hopes to form a partnership with Pines and this was expected to be a major topic of discussion at the local club’s AGM last night (Monday).

In State 4 news Seaford United remains tight lipped about its player targets for next season but it is believed to have spoken to midfielder Scott Webster whose CV includes spells at Frankston Pines, Oakleigh Cannons, Casey Comets, Mornington and Doveton.

Recently promoted Doveton is keen for Webster to return to the senior squad while Brandon Park is also interested in signing him.

Baster bows out a winner HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou MULTIPLE Group One winning jockey, Stephen Baster, has finished his career as a winner with his final ride aboard the Logan McGill-trained Gold Fields at Sandown on Saturday 16 November.

After more than 13,000 rides across his 28-year career, the retiring 44-yearold got the most out of the last-start Sale Cup winner, Gold Fields, to score a narrow short half head victory in the Group Three Sandown Stakes.

The victory brought up Baster’s 1,256th winner and topped off what has been a remarkable career in the saddle.

“I was a bit overwhelmed early,” the 14-time Group One winning jockey said.

“I’m going to miss all the jockeys in the rooms, and I’ll miss the horses, but it’s been a great career and what a way to finish with Logan McGill and the team. I love racing and I’ll always be coming back to watch and be a part of it in some way.”

The established Melbourne rider for the powerhouse partnership of Gai Waterhouse and Adrian Bott, will now be making his mark on the Mornington Peninsula as he gets set to join McEwing & Partners Real Estate in Mornington.

Baster said he’s excited to be applying his competitive personality in the property industry.

“I’m looking forward to starting my new career down there (on the Peninsula) in Real Estate for McEwing and

Partners on Monday so it’ll be a quiet night and getting ready for Monday,” he said following his final win.

Baster brings with him some amazing memories from the racing industry, including taking out the 1993 Oakleigh Plate aboard the Mark Riley-

trained Mookta as an apprentice, but these were the three standouts for him over his career.

“Mookta winning any of his Group 1s because I was claiming three (kilograms),” he said.

“Awesome Rock after losing the

D

Australian Cup on protest and then coming out and winning the Mackinnon was massive and then Pinot winning the Oaks was huge.

“And finishing off like this is amazing - just amazing!”

Final salute: Group One-winning rider Stephen Baster retires a winner as the Logan McGill-trained Gold Fields takes out the Group Three Sandown Stakes.
