Mt Eliza couple lost in MH17 disaster Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au THE peninsula has been rocked by the loss of two of its own with the tragic deaths of Mt Eliza couple Liam and Francesca “Frankie” Davison after the Malaysia Airlines flight they were passengers on was shot down over Ukraine last Friday morning. Early evidence points to flight MH17 being hit by a surface-to-air missile as it flew over a war zone on its way to Kuala Lumpur. The commercial airliner was downed while flying over Russian separatists-held territory in eastern Ukraine. Mr and Mrs Davison were on their way to Melbourne via KL and boarded the flight in Amsterdam. All 298 onboard the plane lost their lives. Thirtyseven Australian and permanent residents were among the deceased. The couple had two children – Milly and Sam – aged in their 20s. Mr Davison, 56, was an awardwinning author of five novels. Two of his books, 1993’s Soundings and The White Woman in 1994 were shortlisted for the Victorian Premier’s Award and The Age Book of the Year Award. Soundings won the National Book Council’s Banjo Award in 1993. He taught creative writing courses at Frankston’s Chisholm TAFE Institute until 2007 and was well regarded by students. Australian author and poet Theresa O’Dea was one of his students. She said Mr Davison was “a great teacher” and “one of my mentors”.

Loving couple: Frankie and Liam Davison were onboard Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 when it was downed over eastern Ukraine. Picture supplied by family.

Mrs Davison, 54, taught English, history and humanities subjects at Toorak College in Mt Eliza for 28 years and was the year 8 coordinator. The school released a statement on Friday: “Toorak College community is saddened by the loss of much loved teacher Frankie Davison and her hus-

band Liam who were on the Malaysian Airlines flight that was brought down over Ukraine, this morning. Our hearts and sympathy goes out to their children Milly and Sam, and family. We are devastated by the news of this tragedy. Our heartfelt sympathy and prayers are with Frankie’s family and friends.”

School principal Helen Carmody has described Mrs Davison as a muchloved teacher, colleague and friend. “She was a very, very popular teacher and well-loved by all the students, parents and staff.” Premier Denis Napthine said 18 Victorian residents were onboard MH17. Dr Napthine expressed “deepest condolences to the friends, family and loved ones of all 298 victims who were aboard the Malaysia Airlines MH17 flight.” “The shooting down of a passenger aircraft full of innocent civilians is an unspeakable act that will forever leave a dark stain on our history,” he said. Flags at state government and affiliated agencies’ building will be flown at half-mast until Friday (25 July) as a mark of mourning and respect. Dunkley MP Bruce Billson said the thoughts and prayers of all Australians are with the families and loved ones of the Australians that tragically lost their lives. “Our hearts go out to the friends and family of Liam and Frankie Davison who were tragically killed,” Mr Billson said. “We can’t restore them to life but we will do everything we can to support their family because that is the Australian way – we help in times of trouble. “Counselling, consular and all possible assistance will be provided to the families during the difficult days ahead.”

Toorak College opened the doors of the school and its chapel over the weekend to provide counselling services to staff, students and parents. Prime Minister Tony Abbott said a national commemorative service would be held in a few weeks’ time. “I think it is important at a time like this to indicate we are grieving with, and praying for, all of those who have been impacted by this dreadful, dreadful event,” Mr Abbott said. “(The national commemorative service) will take place in a few weeks when the loved ones have had time to come to terms with their grief. Then we will come together as a nation in sorrow and solidarity.” Mr Abbott has blamed Russianbacked rebels for shooting down the plane over Ukraine. Separatists are believed to have thought flight MH17 was a Ukrainian transport plane. The Prime Minister wants a transparent and international investigation into the fatal missile attack. The downing of Malaysia Airlines flight MH17 comes just months after the airline’s flight MH370 from Kuala Lumpur to Beijing disappeared without a trace with 239 passengers onboard. Six Australians were onboard MH370. The Davison family would prefer donations to be made to Annapurna Orphans House, Pokhara, Nepal, Sarade Basnet in lieu of flowers. The Davisons have been involved and worked with the orphans in Nepal.

Fine display of tradition MT MARTHA artist Bill Caldwell’s work Autumn at Walhalla is on show at the Twenty Melbourne Painters Society’s 96th annual exhibition. The society was established in 1918 and membership is by invitation only. “In a world of changing fashions, members seek to uphold the principles of traditional art and the exhibition continues to attract several thousand visitors each year,” he said. The exhibition, at the Glen Eira City Gallery, runs for three weeks. Details: www.jennypihanfineart.com.au Picture: Yanni

Older renters fear being homeless Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au THE spectre of homelessness in old age weighs heavily on those lacking the job prospects and mobility of someone younger. This is especially so for older renters. Adding to the threats posed by rising property prices, insufficient superannuation, or joblessness come other worries: unexpected eviction, unaffordable rents or increasingly unsuitable accommodation exacerbated by advancing years. The latest Australian Bureau of Statistics figures show that from 2006-2011 there was a 40 per cent increase in the number of people aged over 55 renting privately on the Mornington Peninsula. That is up from 1028 to 1413 tenants. The figures taken from the 2011 census show a trend that those working in the aged housing area say is not going anywhere but up. And they mirror the 44 per cent national increase in older renters (over 55). They reinforce a growing concern that – as renters - more and more elderly residents are at risk of losing their homes through eviction, lack of affordability or because their house is becoming unsuitable without handrails, ramps or walk-in showers. Often landlords will not approve the changes as they incur unwanted costs. A study by Swinburne University and the Australian Housing and

Rising rents force pensioners to look for alternative housing TWO elderly pensioners living in Rosebud West are anxious to get out of their private rentals and into public housing. The reason: They’re tired of rising rents and concerned that eviction may occur at any time, leaving them homeless. They are among hundreds of pensioners renting privately on the peninsula – many faced with the same dilemma. “If the rent ($260 a week) goes up again I will have to leave – but I don’t have anywhere else to go,” one said. “The rent goes up every six months and everything else goes up except the pension. “We both need a place where we can stay permanently and where the rent is reasonable.” The women (names withheld) are keen to attend the Rosebud meeting to discuss public housing options that will improve their situations. Hopefully, they will be able to find a home near others in the same age bracket.

Urban Research Institute shows:  A decline in private rental affordability with the median rent to median income ratio changing from 19 per cent in 1981 to 26.9 per cent in 2011;  Heightened rates of residential mobility, with 40 per cent of private tenants moving three or more times in five years compared with 7.8 per cent of other tenures;  ‘Forced housing moves’ including evictions and unaffordability rising to 22.6 per cent.

The study also found that baby boomers are more likely to rent and less likely to own a home than previous generations and that, overall, rates of home ownership are falling while rental rates are rising. On the peninsula, the average rent for a two-bedroom apartment is $290 a week. This means tenants on the pension pay 60 per cent of their income on rent – forcing them to sacrifice essentials such as heating, electricity and health care. To help them, Housing for the

Aged Action Group (HAAG), in partnership with Mornington Peninsula Shire, has launched Ageing at Home - the Older Persons Housing Information Strategy. It aims to ensure that older people in housing difficulties get the help they need through easy access to services, and especially in finding long term, affordable – and secure - housing that is adaptable as they age. HAAG education and housing advice manager Jeff Fiedler said the census data highlighted a significant rising trend in which aged renters are vulnerable to rising rents in often substandard accommodation, facing easy eviction and perhaps a falling pension income when a partner dies. This scenario is especially relevant to older women who may have spent time out of the workforce raising children, have come from low-paid jobs and have limited superannuation. Living longer than men, on average, may leave them unable to pay private rents when their partner dies. Mr Fiedler said the housing situation “could be horrible” for aged renters – and made worse by “years of under-spending in public housing”. Rosebud, Mornington, Hastings and other and parts of the southern peninsula have significant numbers of aged renters – many living in former holiday homes. Poor insulation and inadequate heating makes them cold in winter and poorly suited to aged living. And, with no caps, rents can double overnight leading to an accommodation crisis.

Mr Fiedler said older renters should take action “before there’s a crisis” to transition to private ownership by applying for public housing in areas where they prefer to live. This housing comes with lifetime tenure, rent is 25 per cent of the pension, and they are purpose built for the elderly. “It’s a good idea to plan ahead – before there’s a crisis,” he said. “There’s access to this type of housing across the peninsula which is in good condition, has a walk-in shower, fewer steps and ramps that suit the elderly. Much of it is in small clusters with neighbours of the same age in a community setting. “People have a right to live happy and fulfilling lives – no matter what their age.” Those seeking help can call Home at Last on 1300 765 178. Meetings organised by Consumer Affairs Victoria next month will discuss affordable housing options for seniors, including tenants’ rights and responsibilities in retirement housing and private rental, as well as how to avoid scams. Shire venues and dates are: Hastings office, 21 Marine Pde, meeting room 3, 7 August, 10amnoon Mornington office, 2 Queen St, library meeting room, 21 August, 10am-noon Rosebud office, 90 Besgrove St, meeting room 3, 28 August, 10am-noon Lunch will be provided.

Free food program delivers the goods MORNINGTON Peninsula retailers are urged to get on board a highly successful community support program by providing surplus fresh food to SecondBite. The not-for-profit organisation distributes free surplus produce to food relief agencies and community groups throughout Victoria, with three program operating on the peninsula at Rosebud, Mornington and Hastings. Community groups then transform to produce into fresh food hampers and nutritious meals for vulnerable people struggling to meet living costs. Woolworths at Rosebud Plaza has already signed up, with Coles Rosebud also set to join the program in the near future to donate fresh, healthy produce to disadvantaged Mornington Peninsula families and food relief agencies each week. Since April 2013, SecondBite has been delivering of up to two tonnes of fresh produce to Rosebud Memorial Hall each Monday. The free produce is then collected by 13 peninsula food relief agencies for delivery to a range of clients. Fresh food is also collected by more than 100 people at Southern Peninsula Community Support and Information Centre. The weekly collection is coordinated by Southern Peninsula Community Support and Information Centre and local volunteers, with the support of Your Community Bank’s, Bendigo Bank and Mornington Peninsula Shire. SPCSIC manager Jackie Currie welcomed the announcement of more retailers joining the program. “The extra produce from local food

retailers is great news and will help us and SecondBite to assist more clients and food agencies with healthy produce each week. “The program would not be possible without the support of Bendigo Bank and the Shire, and the tireless work of our volunteers,” she said. SecondBite also runs programs through the Mornington Community Information and Support Centre and St Marks Uniting Church, and Western Port Community Support. SecondBite Victorian State Manager Doug Saunders thanked all of the food donors and said that “the fresh produce will help us to meet the increased demand at food relief agen-

cies on the peninsula, and I encourage other retailers and growers to contact SecondBite to collect their excess fresh produce.” By participating in this program food retailers receive recycling accreditation through the shire’s Best Bites food sustainability program, and membership to the Western Port Biosphere Reserve. Mornington Peninsula mayor, Cr Antonella Celi, said the expansion of the SecondBite program means more agencies and clients could be provided with free, healthy produce while the amount of food waste sent to our landfills would also be significantly reduced. “The SecondBite program on the

Mornington Peninsula is in line with the Shire’s Local Food Strategy which aims to connect local people to local produce. “SecondBite – with the help of local organisations – can make an immense impact on our community by helping providing fresh, healthy produce where it’s needed most. “I commend food retailers at Rosebud Plaza who have come on board, and I encourage any other local food retailers who are interested in participating in the program to contact the Shire or SecondBite,” she said. For more information contact the shire on 1300 850 600 or visit www. secondbite.org Chris Brennan

Lives changed by terror in Timor AS well as the disturbing scenes of war and violence we often see from afar, are the consequences which last for years and generations: trauma, loss of social â&#x20AC;&#x153;glueâ&#x20AC;?, a lesser capacity to build a better life. Timor Leste (East Timor) has become familiar to thousands of Australians who have put their skills and energies to help, and redress past injustices experienced by a poor and vulnerable nation distorted by violent colonialisms, most recently Indonesian, from 1975 to 1999. The Timorese people were ignored by other nations, including Australia, which collaborated or looked the other way. Last yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Timor visit by 14 local Friends of Lospalos (supported by Mornington Peninsula Shire) was a highpoint in this eight-year relationship, which has financed many education and other projects. But the Timorese also said â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just the money, you are our family.â&#x20AC;? The new feature film, Beatrizâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s War, illustrates some of the post-colonial issues which afflict re-construction. After a massacre by Indonesian soldiers, Beatrizâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s husband, Tomas, disappears, hopefully to join the Falintil resistance. As happened all over Timor, when the men were killed or fled to the hills to fight, women grew as leaders and made hard choices, including in their role as â&#x20AC;&#x153;clandestinosâ&#x20AC;?. Following independence, Tomas returns and is a different man; Beatriz has changed also. Exploring their new relationship, she asks herself uncomfortable questions about him and what happened

On Location: Some of the extras in the feature Beatrizâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s War were present during a massacre depicted in the filmâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s storyline. Beatriz, left, is played by Irim Tolentino.

Charitiesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; legal help CHARITIES and not-for-profit groups are being offered free legal advice. Justice Connectâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s online program Not-for-profit Law has being launched at a time of a â&#x20AC;&#x153;rapidly changing legal landscape at a critical time for the sectorâ&#x20AC;?, director Juanita Pope, said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Australiaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s charities are grappling with unprecedented sector reforms, and there is no end in sight with the federal governmentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s proposed scrapping of the Australian Charities and Not-for-profits Commission, and significant changes in funding of community services at state levels.â&#x20AC;?

during his 16-year absence. She has seen and done enough to be strong and determined enough to resolve her doubts. Melbourne producer/directors Luigi Acquisto and Stella Zammataro have made a number of documentaries about Timor Leste since 2001, and teamed up with Timorese filmmakers Bety Reis and Lurdes Pires for â&#x20AC;&#x153;Beatrizâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Warâ&#x20AC;?. The cast includes Jose da Costa (Answered by Fire, Balibo) and the screenplay was written by Irim Tolen-

tino (Beatrix) who also plays the lead of Rosa in a Timor TV series. The real-life experiences of the Indonesian occupation have informed the acting of many of the cast, and bring out some compelling and anguished performances. One location, Kraras, was the site of the 1983 massacre portrayed in the film and some of the film extras were there at the time. The film took more than a year to make and received early support from SBS Television, the Timorese army

and companies such as Toll Logistics, Airnorth and Rentlo. The Friends of Los Palos, Amnesty International, and Mornington Peninsula Human Rights Group are screening Beatrizâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s War as a fundraiser at Mornington Cinema on Tuesday 5 August. A short report about Lospalos at 7pm will be followed by the film at 7.30. Information and bookings at www.trybooking.com/FJNW or www. trybooking.com/94324 Kevin Bain

Finding shelter a pet project Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au IT really is a dog’s life for some – especially those dogs and cats who find themselves on death row at pounds and shelters. Unwanted and discarded – often by callous owners who bought a cute kitten or pup for Christmas and then found they didn’t want it to grow up – they are euthanised in their hundreds every year in pounds and shelters. But those taken to the Mornington Peninsula Community Animal Shelter are luckier than most. The shelter prides itself on working with more than 30 rescue groups and adopting out to the public as many unwanted pets as possible, so they have the best chance at finding their ‘forever’ home.

The shelter also promotes responsible pet ownership and can provide a wide range of useful information and tips on how to keep pets safe and happy. A recent partnership with pet-rehoming organisation Pet Rescue has been worthwhile. It lists pets for adoption from the shelter on its website: petrescue.com.au The not-for-profit group relies solely on the generosity of pet lovers to fund its operations. Shire senior ranger Scott Morone said the shelter had an “awesome relationship” with Pet Rescue and greater access to potential new owners – even some overseas. This was discovered when a Rye woman – on holiday in Germany – saw a cute Jack Russell on social media one night and decided to adopt it. She arranged with her husband - at home in Rye - to visit the shelter and

collect the lucky canine who is now ‘living the dream’ by the beach. Mr Morone said he had detected a welcome trend on the peninsula for families to adopt a pet – to give them a second chance - rather buy a “brand new” pet in pet shops. The shelter also accepts surrendered pets – with a $50 surrender fee - and attempts to place them in the home or with the group that suits them best after they have passed their assessment. Volunteers are always welcome at the shelter to walk the dogs and pat the cats. The shelter is open Monday to Friday from 8.30am-5pm and weekends 10am-5pm. It is closed on Good Friday and Christmas Day. For more information phone 1300 850 600 or email CASGroup@mornpen.vic.gov.au

WHEN you tuck into dinner think about where those tasty fruits and vegetables come from. No, not the fruit shop, where they are grown. For Mornington Peninsula residents, this is often nearby as the region is a growth area in fruit and vegetable terms, producing 32 per cent of the state’s lettuce, 24 per cent of its herbs, 14 per cent of its broccoli, 14 per cent of its strawberries, and 4 per cent of its raspberries. The market gardens are also well placed to receive cheap water from the Carrum Downs sewerage treatment plant and are relatively close to Melbourne’s CBD in transport terms, making them worthy of protection at a time when pressure on ‘freeing up’

acreage for new housing is strong. Dr Rachel Carey, lead researcher of the Food Alliance, a Deakin University program funded by VicHealth, said it was most important to keep Melbourne’s food production areas close by, rather than forcing them into remote areas and more vulnerable to rising fuel costs and higher water bills. These would all have deleterious effects on food prices – especially during times of drought brought on by climate change. And, with the Melbourne’s population expected to rise to almost eight million by 2050, she said the need to protect our most productive farmland was crucial. The Food Alliance research found

that 40%-50% of Melbourne’s vegetables are grown on the city’s doorstep - with a massive 10% grown in Werribee South. Dr Carey said food production areas close to the city must be protected by fixing urban growth boundaries permanently and ensuring remaining market growing areas are protected for future generations. “Plan Melbourne recognises this problem, but doesn’t go far enough in delivering effective solutions to creating a permanent city boundary to protect Melbourne’s foodbowl.” She said farms on the urban fringe created 6000 jobs and contributed $1.3-$1.6 billion to Victoria’s economy. “Easy access to shoppers,

transport, wholesale markets, water and labour are what makes these areas viable for growing food for the future as our population increases.” Without protection, the Food Alliance research predicts available farmland within Melbourne’s urban boundaries — around 2000sq km, with 90sq km dedicated to fruit and vegetable growing in 1950s — will shrink to less than 200sq km by 2030. A Plan Melbourne statement reportedly promotes the huge export potential of city-fringe farms, and says a permanent urban boundary is crucial for safeguarding food production. It calls for high-value agricultural land to be mapped and protected. Stephen Taylor

Report calls for port rethink Keith Platt Keith@mpnews.com.au UNIVERSITY researchers have called for a reassessment of the state government’s plans to spend an estimated $12 billion developing a container port at Hastings. They say a fall-back position is vital in case the Port of Hastings project fails. The researchers say a “simplistic” view is being taken by governments assuming larger ships will come if a deep water port is offered. However, shipping companies will not send the world’s largest ships because the Australian market is not large enough. Smaller ships with quicker turnaround times capable of entering Port Phillip make more economic sense for carrying Victoria’s agricultural and perishable food-related exports. The government will also have difficulty fulfilling its obligations by building a port in an internationally recognised wetland area. The researchers say decisions made on how to cope with predicted levels of imports and exports over the next 40 years will affect everyone in Victoria and should not be based solely on pol-itical decisions. In a research paper titled Build it – but will they come? Hermione Parsons and Peter Van Duyn say shipping companies are unlikely to send mega-ships to Melbourne, with the economy being better served by similar sized vessels to those already coming and going from Port Phillip. They estimate more than 70 per cent of containers would have to reach Hastings – by road or rail – through metropolitan Melbourne, increasing distances from the current average of 22 kilometres to more than 100. The government has yet to say how much it will cost to upgrade land transport networks. Dr Parsons said the Build it – but will they come? report was aimed at “lifting discussion [about developing the Port of Hastings] above day-to-day politics”. Dr Parsons said it was “so important to get [the port decision] right and not get it wrong.” The state government is spending $110 million through the Hastings Port Development Authority with the aim of having all necessary planning and environmental approvals through by 2017 – with construction to be completed by 2027. However, the Labor Opposition says building a new container port in Port Phillip may make more economic

Easy access: A regular visitor to the Port of Melbourne, the 52,600 tonne Cap Frio is 256 metres long, had a draught of 11.4 metres and can carry 3470 containers. The ship was built in 2012 and according to university researchers fits the bill for what is needed for Victroria’s export and import markets. Picture: Keith Platt

sense. This so-called Bay West option could become a reality if Labor wins the November state election. The research paper states there is a need for “a continuation of planning for alternatives, should the Port of Hastings development project fail”. Dr Parsons said the two-year study launched last week at a function arranged by the Committee for Wyndham was funded solely by Victoria University. The launch was attended by 180 people from across the state, including Mornington Peninsula Shire’s sustainable infrastructure director Alex Atkins and strategic planning manager Allan Cowley. There were no representatives from the City of Frankston. Dr Parsons said “political interests” had offered financial help with the study but the university decided to pay “because we had to be neutral”. The study – by the university’s institute for supply chain and logistics department - was released in the same week that the state government reaffirmed its commitment to develop a container port at Hastings and accused the Labor opposition of being out of step with its Hastings candidate. While Labor is pushing for a new container on the western side of Port Phillip near Geelong or Werribee, its Hastings candidate Steve Hosking told The News last week that he remained committed to Hastings if it meant jobs for at least 500 people (‘Labor’s port pains’, 8/7/14).

Dr Parsons said she would like to present her findings to a meeting in Western Port. “We’re not supporting one location or another and we don’t think [Labor’s] Bay West is the best alternative,” she said. Dr Parsons said the capacity of the Port of Melbourne should be reassessed and a “pre-mortem technique” applied to the Hastings proposal. The research paper describes the premortem technique as “imagining that the project has failed … It is a simple technique that can indicate potential problems and prospects, as well as expose any weaknesses in the project”. The paper goes on the say that mega ships will be used only to service Europe, China, India, the Middle east and the Americas and gives the example of the port of Rotterdam, which services 350 million people “compared with Australia’s total market population of 23 million people and Victoria’s current population of 6 million that is anticipated to grow to 10 million people by 2050”. “The stark differences in market sizes emphasise that in order to maintain a container shipping service that satisfies Australia’s need for reliable, regular (weekly) movement of imports and exports … the smaller container vessels are likely to be more suitable than the larger mega ships. “The Port of Hastings development project is designed to cater for nine million containers (TEU) per annum by 2050.

“While freight logistics and transport service providers may relocate they must pass on to customers the higher operating costs resulting from moving approximately an extra 100 kilometres away from the current industrial ‘heartland’ in the west of the metropolitan region, with the same long distances on the return trip.” When the Port of Hastings reaches its capacity of nine million containers (TEU) as planned in 2050, the landside task could potentially involve the movement of 4.5 million containers annually to and from Melbourne’s main western industrial district. This would require:  1.5 million B-double trucks, or 50,000 freight trains carrying 90 containers a train, annually;  More than 4000 trucks or 140 trains moving across Melbourne’s road and rail network between Melbourne’s industrial west and north, and Hastings, daily. “Constructing a nine million TEU container terminal in the Ramsar convention-protected area will require intensive and guaranteed mitigation measures, to ensure the wetlands continue to be fully protected. The government’s response will have to withstand very determined local, national and international scrutiny and demonstrate the safety of the wetlands against any foreseeable damage from the construction, dredging, maintenance and maritime operations of the Port of Hastings,” the report states. Economic and social issues will like-

ly opposition to:  Australia’s potential failure to fulfil its international obligations and responsibilities as a signatory to an environmental protection convention;  The potential destruction of Western Port coastal scenery affecting landholders and residential and holiday home owners between Cape Schanck and Stony Point, on the Mornington Peninsula; on French Island; and between Ventnor and Cowes on Phillip Island;  The impacts on the region’s tourist industry, including the internationally significant fairy penguin parade and seals at The Nobbies on Phillip Island, of the port and its maritime operations;  Concerns throughout Melbourne over the potential loss of properties and amenity resulting from the construction and operation of road works, and the south east rail link, for trains to cross the Yarra River and travel via Richmond, Flinders St and Southern Cross stations to the Tottenham freight rail yards, which may require excavation work in affluent Malvern, Armadale, Toorak, Hawksburn and South Yarra. “These politically sensitive social and environmental issues could lead the government of the day to re-evaluate the political costs of the proposed port and associated infrastructure, and decide instead to concentrate on metropolitan and regional commuter transport priorities and other more pressing constituency issues.”

State backs point development Keith Platt Keith@mpnews.com.au A PROMINENT Portsea family is behind a $100 million plan to make Point Nepean National Park “a world-class tourist destination and education precinct”. The Premier Denis Napthine was at the park’s Quarantine Station on Friday to announce government backing for the bid to develop the precinct by the Point Leisure Group. The group’s directors and Myer family members Richard and Trine Shelmerdine said their plan would “transform Point Nepean’s historic Quarantine Station in a way that shares and maintains its unique heritage and natural environment”. They predict Point Nepean will become a “world-class destination … combining its natural beauty and heritage with a high quality hotel, function and events centre, health retreat, hot spring facility, museum and a multitude of recreational, cultural and educational opportunities”. Dr Napthine said the plan includes a marine education and research precinct with the University of Melbourne; luxury and “camping style” accommodation; shops, cafes and restaurants. “The proposal is in keeping with the site’s cultural and Indigenous heritage, while delivering stringent environmental protections,” Dr Napthine said. Environment Minister Ryan Smith said the plan would secure the future of buildings with heritage and cultural significance “and are in pressing need

of maintenance”. Mr Smith said the proposal “accords with the height of existing buildings”. Three southern peninsula community groups - Nepean Ratepayers Association, Nepean Historical Society and Nepean Conservation Group – will be briefed by Mr Ryan today, Tuesday. Mr Shelmerdine says he is a “contributing member” of the Nepean Historical Society, Nepean Conservation Group and founding committee member of the Sullivan Bay Action Group. In 2011 Mr Shelmerdine was granted approval by the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal to subdivide The Sisters historic property in Point Nepean Rd, Sorrento. “Our family has been part of the local community for generations, and we are committed to embracing and protecting this special place,” Mr Shelmerdine said. “We feel very privileged to be part of

a project that will revitalise a place that has played such an important role in Australia’s history. This will redefine Victorian tourism and create a worldclass health and wellness destination that will inspire visitors to discover, unwind, and participate in the wonders of this area. “We see this as the beginning of the next stage of Point Nepean’s history and look forward to working closely with local community groups and the Victorian Government to make it a success for all involved.” Dr Napthine said the plan “strikes the right balance between leisure and learning activities, and maintaining the site for future generations to enjoy”. He said up to 220 jobs would be created during construction “and up to a further 390 ongoing jobs”. “This site is set to attract further investment and tourists from around the world, delivering a huge economic

boost to the Mornington Peninsula and the state’s economy,” Dr Napthine said. Mr Smith said the proposal aligns with the government’s guidelines for tourism investment in national parks and the Point Nepean National Park master plan. Nepean MP Martin Dixon said the Portsea polo, craft markets and concerts will continue to be held at Point Nepean with scope for “additional tourism and investment ideas”. While providing greater public access, the plan “follows stringent guidelines that will protect and enhance the local environment, our coastline and the historic buildings on the site”, Mr Dixon said. Flinders MP and Conservation Minister Greg Hunt, who has championed several past proposals at Point Nepean, said he was “delighted that the long held community goal of marine educa-

tion at Point Nepean using the existing but empty heritage buildings is now very close”. “The proposal appears modest, sustainable and focussed on education and wellness, while also highlighting and celebrating the heritage of the old Quarantine Station buildings,” Mr Hunt said. “The old quarantine station has unique examples of grand heritage architecture, which have been restored by the Commonwealth but which have laid dormant and empty for many years. “This should now secure the heritage buildings for the coming century and guarantee their long term protection. The non-quarantine area of the park has long been protected and secured.” The proposal is open for public comment at www.depi.vic.gov.au/nepean or visit Parks Victoria’s office at Point Nepean.

Record funding for peninsula libraries MORNINGTON Peninsula libraries have received a welcome boost, with the state government announcing funding would be increased to $915,000 this financial year. The peninsula was one of the big winners from an adjusted formula used by the state government to ensure fairer distribution of annual funding provided for Victoria’s 54 public libraries and library corporations. Local Government Minister Tim Bull said Victorian libraries would receive record recurrent funding of $39.52 million through the Public Libraries Funding Program. This amount for the 2014-15 financial year was in addition to the $17.2 million Living Libraries Infrastructure Program that funds new libraries, smaller redevelopments and refurbishments, he said. Mornington MP David Morris said the funding windfall represented the largest annual amount ever provided to peninsula libraries.

“Local libraries are at the very heart of our communities so it is important that library services and councils work collaboratively together to provide high quality services that continue to grow and cater for the needs of all Victorians,” Mr Morris said. “This is the largest amount of funding ever provided to our libraries, reversing funding cuts left by the former Labor,” Mr Morris said. Mornington Peninsula mayor, Cr Antonella Celi welcomed news of the funding increase, which she said will contribute to providing the community with a wide range of important services. She said more than 700,000 people visited peninsula libraries each year, with more than 1.4 million items are borrowed annually. “These include books, CDs and DVDs for loan, online services and resources, mobile library services, public access computers and WiFi, and a range of reading and learning programs for the community,” Cr Celi said.

Right attitude: From left, Hastings Blue Light Motorcycle Club police liaison Lee Marriott, Cr David Garnock, Inspector Karen Nyholm, Blue Light Victoria CEO Ivan Ray and Senior Sergeant Alan Courtney, were joined by bike enthusiast Cooper Marriott, front, to help drive home the “right gear, right bike, right place” message.

Bike riders urged to get into gear with right attitude to safety THE shire council has joined with Victoria Police and motorbike enthusiasts to spread the message that riders need the right gear, right bike, right place to enjoy riding in safety. Cr David Garnock said the safety message was particularly important following an recent council amendment to local laws which enables Victoria Police to seize and impound illegally ridden unregistered recreational vehicles, such as mini bikes, trail bikes and motor bikes. “Mornington Peninsula Shire Council has worked closely with Victoria Police, which has received high numbers of complaints from the community relating to individuals riding unregistered vehicles illegally, to introduce the amendment to the local law as a deterrent to illegal and dangerous behaviour and to improve community safety,” he said. Mornington Peninsula police commander Inspector Karen Nyholm said the change to the local law is expected to be an effective tool to address illegal recreational vehicle use. “Community safety is our priority and the illegal use of these bikes often causes property

damage and presents real physical threats to people and children walking around the streets,” she said. Scott Morone, from the Motorcycle Action Group in Hastings, said the message should be clear: Right Bike, Right Gear, Right Place. “MAG works with the community to promote safe bike use,” he said. “Illegal recreational vehicle use is often very dangerous, with offenders riding unregistered motorbikes without the proper safety equipment on land not designed for the purpose. “We want people to stay safe by doing the right thing – Right Bike, Right Gear, Right Place – and importantly the right attitude,” he said. For further information about safe bike practices refer to www.spokes.com.au Anyone witnessing illegal recreational vehicle is asked to call 000 during the event, or if you have information about illegal recreational vehicle use please contact Crime Stoppers on: 1800 333 000 or the Hoon Hotline on: 1800 NO HOON (1800 664 666).

Did the system fail both Luke and Rosie? Chris Brennan chris@mpnews.com.au

ROSIE Batty may have acted differently on the day her son Luke was killed by his father had she been made aware her estranged partner had made disturbing death threats towards a housemate just weeks earlier, the ABC’s Four Corners program revealed last Monday. Greg Anderson, who murdered Luke by bashing him with a cricket bat and stabbing him with a knife following a mid-week cricket practice session at Tyabb on 12 February, threatened to cut his housemate’s head off during an argument at the Chelsea Heights home they shared. Police failed to mention the incident to Ms Batty despite contacting her just a week before Luke’s death in their efforts to track Anderson down over the grisly death threat. Ms Batty said that had she been told of the death threat and multiple warrants out for Anderson’s arrest, she may have been more aware of the danger she and her son were in. “A lot of us are very careless saying ‘I could kill you, you know, you’re driving me mad’ ... but to actually say … to decapitate someone. They’re not light comments,” she told Four Corners. The incidents leading up to Luke’s murder and Ms Batty’s subsequent crusade to both shed light on the fragmented response to family violence and improve protection for victims, were the focus of the latest Four Corners investigation. Ms Batty has refused to blame police or government agencies for failing to prevent her son’s death, instead choosing to use the tragedy to try to highlight systemic deficiencies and improve

the response to domestic violence. However, she warns there will be more tragedies unless something is done. “Things happen in such a fragmented fashion … each statement you make to the police is a separate statement, each policeman you meet is a different police-

man, each organisation is doing their own job with their own focus,” she says. “No-one’s taking an overarching look at everything that's going on together. No-one’s looking at the complete picture.” While there is no definitive answer to the question of whether Luke’s brutal death could have been prevented, the program makes clear more could and should have been done to protect him and his mother. For years, Ms Batty struggled to manage the increasingly violent behaviour of Luke’s father of her son. “She called for help – loud and clear. She involved the police, the courts, child protection and social workers to keep her son and herself safe. But this didn’t happen,” says reporter Geoff Thompson. Ms Batty said that while Anderson’s behaviour was never going to “put him away”, some degree of intervention may have been “just enough for him to rethink, or maybe enough of a red flag for me to understand what acute danger Luke and I were in”. Victoria Police Commissioner Ken Lay, who has worked closely with Ms Batty since Luke’s murder in order to address shortcomings in the way family violence is addressed, agrees the system needs to be overhauled. “When you need to look someone in the eye like Rosie and hear how the system dealt with her and understand how the system may have let some of those people down, it’s very, very confronting,” Mr Lay said. A coronial inquest into the events leading to Luke’s murder and subsequent fatal shooting of Greg Anderson by police will be held in October.

Hospital sets state asthma surgery benchmark SURGERY to ease the suffering of long-term asthma sufferers is now available at Frankston Hospital. It is the first time surgery to reduce the effects of asthma attacks on chronic asthma sufferers for whom traditional medications do not work has been offered in Victoria. Peninsula Health’s director of thoracic medicine, Professor David Langton, performed the procedure for the first time last week while accompanied by Harvard professor of medicine, Dr Armin Ernst, who pioneered the procedure. The bronchial thermoplasty procedure involves inserting a bronchoscope, or small tube, down the patient’s airway and into their lungs whilst they are under anaesthesia. A heat probe is then used to treat the muscles that cause bronchospasm. “By weakening these muscles they will no longer be able to cause wheeze and asthma attacks,” Prof Langton said. Debra Clarke is one of two patients for whom Professor Langton will be performing the surgery on for the first time. The 53-year-old mother of three has spent suffering from the effects of asthma since being diagnosed at 15 months of age. “I’ve had asthma for as long as I can remember and nothing has ever been able to relieve the constant wheeziness. I’ve never been able to be as active as I want to be. I never played sports. Even in school I used to hide my head in my bag to take my puffer for fear of being labelled as not

normal,” Ms Clarke said As a chronic asthma sufferer she has spent her life on medication to try and relieve the constant heaviness in her chest. “I’ve had all the traditional medication and tried all the experimental trials I could, including going onto chemotherapy medication. “I am now at the point where the constant use of cortisone steroids is having a significant toll on my

body. My hair is thinning, my skin is weak and I am constantly covered in bruises. I have had to give up so much of my quality of life including my job because of my asthma. “One of the side effects of the use of steroids to treat asthma is getting diabetes. My dad, who was also a chronic asthma sufferer, passed away from steroid induced diabetes at 59. I really don’t want that to happen to me.” Ms Clarke hopes the surgery will

reduce her reliance on the cortisone steroids, minimise their effects on her body, and reduce her risk of getting diabetes. “Within six months I’m expecting to see my quality of life improve dramatically,” she said. “I’m just looking forward to doing those things we take for granted like breathing and walking with ease and without the fear of suffering an attack.”

The bronchial thermoplasty is only available for patients following a specialist review. Patients must have severe and persistent asthma that is not well controlled despite taking currently available medications. Since the procedure was approved for use in Australia by the Therapeutic Goods Administration in 2013 it has been performed on less than 20 patients in hospitals in Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Survey being performed into establishing a port at Hastings Compiled by Cameron McCullough THE usual monthly sale at Tanti will be held on Monday, August 3rd, when Messrs Alex Scott and Co. will offer cattle, sheep, lambs etc. *** WE regret to announce the serious indisposition of Mr W. Schultz, of the Pier Hotel, Frankston. Mr Schultz is at present an inmate of Dr. Stirling’s hospital, where he will undergo an operation. We wish him a speedy recovery. *** A NUMBER of Australian sympathisers with the poor of London forwarded a consignment of 270 carcasses of Australian mutton for distribution. This mutton has been distributed in the poorest districts of London. *** MUCH satisfaction is felt in Flinders and surrounding districts at the recommendation of the Railway Department to extend the Stony Point line to Red Hill. This extension will serve a good producing district and bring direct railway communication to within six miles of Flinders. *** THE residents of Westernport have for some years been advocating that use should be made of the fine depths and anchorages of that natural harbour. They want pier facilities for deepsea vessels and railway communication with arteries of traffic. While the Government takes the view that the deepening of Port Phillip will provide ample accommodation for the oversea trade of the eastern part of the State, it has gone as far as to undertake a

comprehensive survey of Westernport, with a view to the subsequent establishment of the other facilities required. This survey is now being made by the Ports and Harbours branch, and will, it is anticipated, be completed before the end of the year. *** ABOUT a fortnight ago the construction of a siding at Chelsea, on which about 30 men had been engaged, was suddenly stopped. At the local progress association meeting on Saturday night anxiety was expressed as to whether it is to be completed. The chairman (Mr James) stated that with Mr Keast, M.L.A., he had an interview with the Railway Commissioners on the matter. They were given to understand that the stoppage had taken place owing to some departmental reason, but that construction would be resumed shortly. Meanwhile it had been found necessary, in order to give a proper width of the siding, to encroach somewhat on the eastern road. As those who had brought frontages to that road had been guaranteed frontage to a 66 feet thoroughfare the Commissioners would buy from them a depth corresponding to what was taken from the road, thus maintaining its width. Fortunately little or no building had been done at that point. He understood notices to treat had been already served. *** FURTHER complaints were made at

the meeting of the Chelsea Progress Association on Saturday night as to irregular running of trains to Melbourne on the Frankston line. Owing to the late arrival in town of the 6.43am train it was said work men and others who used it found they frequently missed other trains which had to be caught in Melbourne, and in order not to be late for their engagements had to get to work by other means of transit from the city. The 6.9am, on the other hand, whatever its time of arrival in town, often left Chelsea as much as two minutes before scheduled time, with the result that passengers either missed it or sprang hurriedly into the wrong class, at the risk of being caught by the flying gang. The trains arriving at Chelsea, it was said, very often over-ran the station, and as people had to cross the lines to get to the platforms at each end, this way was very dangerous. The meeting resolved to press the Railway Commissioners to have the train services adjusted in the particulars mentioned, and also to realise the necessity of making a subway at the station. *** A DEMONSTRATION of land clearing and subsoiling by explosives will be given on the property of Mr T. Gibson, Hodgins Road, Hastings, by Mr H. E. Henshaw, representing Nobel’s Explosives Co, Ltd., on Tuesday, 28th July. *** THE work of straightening the street in front of the Mechanics’ Hall at Frankston has been put in hand, and the trees are being cut down prepara-

tory to the road being made. It is expected that the alterations and additions to the hall will be commenced shortly. *** ON Thursday evening, 16th inst., at the Clyde Hall, Mr and Mrs C. Croskell and Mr A. Croskell were the recipients of presentations from members of the tennis and football clubs and residents of the district, on the eve of their departure. The presentations consisted of a case of cutlery to Mr and Mrs C. Croskell and a travelling bag, suitably inscribed, to Mr A. Croskell. *** THE death occurred, suddenly at Mornington, on Thursday morning, of Sister Thompson. She was well known and highly respected in Mornington, and her sudden demise has caused great a sorrow in all directions. *** AT the Frankston Court of Petty Sessions, on Monday last, before Messrs Sherlock, Clements, and Williams, J.’s P, a case was dealt with in which John Rule claimed that goods seized from Mrs Spears in execution of a distress warrant were his, and should not have been taken. After the hearing of the evidence, the Bench held that Rule’s claim to the goods was proved, and gave a verdict accordingly. Mr Lawrence Rostron appeared for Rule, and Mr Utber for the execution creditor. *** OWING to his departure to Tynong, Cr J. D. Hodgins has been compelled to resign his position as president of the Frankston and Hastings shire. During his term as president, Cr Hodgins has filled the position ably,

and as a councillor he has always looked after the interests of his riding. The departure of Cr Hodgins and family from the district will leave a gap that will be hard to fill. Already Mr Daniel Hoban and Mr J. Watt have been mentioned as likely candidates to fill the vacancy caused by Cr Hodgins’ retirement. *** IT is with the deepest regret that I have to record the death of one of our esteemed Somerville townsmen in the person of Mr A. Edward Gault, at the age of 50 years. Death occurred at Adelaide, South Australia, where the late Mr Gault had gone to receive special care and attention in his last days, under the care of Dr Gault. Though he well knew that his days were numbered, the deceased gentleman was of a uniformly kind and genial disposition, and he endeared himself to all with whom he came in contact. Having resided at Somerville for the last 20 years, where he was successful as an orchardist, his removal by that grim reaper, Death, will leave a gap that will take many years to fill. He was especially prominent in church life, and was a steward of the Methodist circuit for many years, and a great deal of his time was given for that cause. We offer our heartfelt sympathy to the bereaved widow and relatives, who are left to mourn their said bereavement. From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 25 July 1914.

FOOD & ENTERTAINMENT

A beginner’s guide to the Australian Senate By Stuart McCullough Rule 1: Get used to red. Outside of hell, nowhere has as much red as the Senate chamber. It looks like the work of the world’s laziest interior decorator. If it proves anything, it’s that sending the apprentice down to the shops to pick out a left-handed hammer can seriously backfire. The carpet is red. The walls are red. Even the desks are pretty much red. But here’s a tip – if you’re a little on the shy side and don’t want your ugly mug to appear on the news, wear red. It’ll be like you’re not even there. Granted, you’ll need to wear a red veil too, lest you should simply appear on screen as a discombobulated, floating cranium. Rule 2: The person sitting in the big chair should always be addressed as ‘President’. To put this into a party-specific perspective, no matter how great the temptation do not refer to him or her as ‘Comrade’ (ALP), ‘Your Majesty’ (Liberal), ‘Maaate’ (Nationals), ‘Imperialist Warmongering Swine’ (the Greens), ‘Gary’ (the Palmer United Party) and especially not, under any circumstances, as ‘Dude’ (Motoring Enthusiasts Party). It should always be as ‘President’. Not even ‘El Presidente’ is good enough. It may seem unnatural at first but, within the first three years of your six-year term, it’ll slip off the tongue with ease. Rule 3: The front of the building is strictly a loading and unloading zone. Don’t even bother trying to park there. Seriously. It may look

enjoy House of Cards as a piece of light-hearted entertainment but there are plenty of real instructional videos that senators can borrow from the Parliamentary library if they wish. If you do feel the need for some tutoring on how to go about your duties, we’ve received favourable reports from members concerning Game of Thrones. You’ll find it in the ‘self-help’ section. If you prefer to do things the old fashioned way, Machiavelli’s The Prince is also quite popular and is located on the ‘DIY’ shelf. With a little study and application, you’ll be working the room like the professional you, technically speaking, now are.

like there’s plenty of room, but don’t be fooled. For some of you, this might be your first company car and you might be desperate for others to notice that you have one, but the big space out the front is solely for dropping off and picking up. If you do decide to throw caution to the wind and take the spot right at the door, not only are you inviting trouble from the most ferocious set of wheel clamps this side of Lake Burley-Griffin, your car may be detonated in a controlled

explosion for security reasons and to teach you a lesson. Rule 4: ‘House of Cards’ is not an instructional video. If you’re new to politics, don’t believe everything you’ve seen on TV. That includes broadcasts of ICAC proceedings. Politicians are not scheming, conniving manipulators and, no matter what Kevin Spacey may have led you to believe, are not motivated purely by self interest. It’s not about betrayal and bloodshed. By all means,

Rule 5: Get used to spending lots of time with people you’ve just insulted. Politics is a funny thing. One moment you’re sticking the boots into your political opponent as if he was a human Sherrin and you were trying to slot one through the goal posts from fifty metres out; next, you’re sitting next to each other in a plane or stuck on the same committee for six months. If you refer to another member of the Senate or, indeed, the Parliament, as a demented psychopath whose polices make the regime in North Korea look a little on the timid side, that’s the person you’re going to get stuck in the elevator with. When trapped in such an awkward moment, simply hold your mobile phone to you ear and have a pretend conversation. We all do it. Rule 6: Get used to being away from home. You may be representing

Victoria or Queensland or even one of the Territories, but prepare yourself to spend a lot less time there and whole lot more time here where the mornings are cold, people get excited about hamburgers available from a caravan and the local newspaper features a story about bizarre public servant workers’ compensation claims pretty much every day. Rule 7: Most rumours are exactly that, rumours. Despite what you may have heard, at 8pm on Wednesdays we do not dim the lights and pump up the tunes with the wheels of steel to turn the Chamber into a giant disco. That’s strictly Tuesdays only. Wednesdays are pot luck. Make sure you pack a casserole dish and bear in mind that the dietary restrictions of the various senators are published on the intranet. If any of you are wheat intolerant, celiac or, God forbid, vegetarian, speak now or forever hold your peace because on Fridays we do Charcoal Chicken for lunch. As for other things you may have heard, there is not a bomb shelter under Old Parliament House. The bomb shelter is under the front lawn. Should the unthinkable happen and the need arise, the code word for entry is ‘bacon’. Rule 8: Quota / schmota. t doesn’t matter if you romped it in or have arrived with a half percent mandate courtesy of a preference deal that makes quantum physics look like a game for simpletons, you’ve got a job to do. Best of luck. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

The making of grandparents By Karli Duckett We seem to have hit the terrible twos earlier than expected in this house. In fact…I think the term is somewhat of a misnomer. They should call it, ‘the age of trying to “break” your parents’… and I am suspicious that it might last from toddler-hood to that time that you’re supposed to be ‘grown-up’. After a morning of more high-pitched noise pollution than any human being should have to endure, I packed our banshee into the car and raced off to refuge with his Nanna & Poppy. It is there that I found a fleeting minute of calm and clarity, along with the inspiration for this article. I had a cheeky nap there while Bubba Duck did and when I woke, I had a peek out of their open window. Looking out over their familiar backyard, a feeling of reassurance and warmth washed over me. Our perfectly imperfect family is beautiful and real, just the right balance of routine and chaos for our lucky young man to thrive in. His Nanna and Poppy allow him too much ice-cream and chocolate (that much is true), but his memories will be of racing down their staircase while clutching the beautiful old wooden handrail, deeply coloured with a rich history. He will point at photographs on their wall of his Mum and Dad, young and full of expectation and ask, “who are they?” Dinners will be had on laps on their couch

whilst getting swept away in movie story lines….Poppy forever at the ready to cover him and his big cousins with one of Nanna’s soft blankets when they give in to sleep. Our son may be young, but he is clever. The model cars that Poppy taught him are only for gazing upon are already making it into grubby hands, one-by-one at Bubba Duck’s request. He is also clever enough to realise that if he lets Nanna comb his hair to the side (the way she loves to do), he might just get a little treat in return. For his Grandma, Bubba Duck is her first

grandchild. At Grandma and Grandpa’s house, he can indulge in his love of exploring and running carelessly in the sun (or rain!) Their home is gradually being ‘redecorated’ with rubber ducks, a highchair, noisy toys and old relics that will intrigue our son as he grows and enjoys more independence. Grandpa has a tractor and a huge shed filled with curios that a little boy with busy hands will investigate with the intense concentration of a scientist trying to prove a hypothesis. Grandma has a warm and soft lap …. forever waiting for those rare moments when a little bottom sits still long enough to enjoy a cuddle. She sings animated songs and loves our child as much as she does her own two grown children …. possibly more! Observing our son’s grandparents weaving into his colourful life has given me as much joy as the day he entered our world. It has also served as a poignant reminder to be kinder to my own parents. No-one can prepare you for what it will truly be like when you become a parent and there is no manual guiding you how to do the job perfectly. Sacrifice becomes a regular action as you care for the little life you are responsible for. We are all fallible and uncertain, and just trying to do the best job we can. And it is immensely comforting to know that on the days we struggle to do that well, the parents that have ‘been there, and done that’ are

right behind us ready to do it all again! Mumma Duck Says is a place where life and food gets in the way! A place for Karli to share her cooking, motherhood and creative journey with friends. You can follow her via Mumma Duck Says on Facebook or visit her blog at www. mummaduckblog.wordpress.com

scoreboard

Season over for Pythons PENINSULA LEAGUE By Toe Punt PINES season is over after it was overrun by Mt Eliza in Peninsula League football on Saturday. Although the Pythons percentage was not at a competitive level in comparison to the teams above it on the ladder, enough wins would have given them every opportunity to make the final five. However, the loss means that Pines is no longer a chance to play finals in 2014. They did go down with a mighty fight though. The more naturally gifted Redlegs went into the match as favourites but were forced to work for the four points. The home side led by nine points at the final change but with the aid of the wind the Redlegs were able to kick four goals to a single behind in the last quarter to win 12.5 (77) to 9.8 (62). Darren Booth and Sam Gill were outstanding for the Redlegs while John Meesen was a key contributor in the ruck. Guy Hendry booted four goals for the Pythons while 18-year-old Pat Jackson played his best senior game. Pat follows in the footsteps of his brilliant father and uncle, Stella and Robbie Jackson, in the Python pit. Chris Guganovic was also dominant through the middle of the ground for the Pythons. Langwarrin coach Gavin Artico declared the second half against Chelsea on Saturday was the best brand of footy his side has played all season. With a side that is now almost at full strength, Artico said his team’s style in the second half highlighted that his charges were starting to “get the message”. “There is a lot of talent in this team but if they are not playing the style of footy that we want, talent isn’t going to get us the four points,” Artico said. “I thought we were OK in the first half, but once again inaccuracy in front of goal cost us a decent lead. “It was good to hit the scoreboard in the second half and record a really solid win.” The Kangaroos won the game 17.15 (117) to 7.5 (47). Sean Herdman, Matt Dimkos and

Beau Muston all booted four goals each for the Kangas while Ash Fenech was brought back into the side for his defensive pressure and was rewarded with two goals. Matt Baxter booted three goals for the Gulls and was one of his team’s best, while Jason Clark was also a fine contributor. Frankston YCW flexed its muscles and proved that it is the side to beat for the 2014 premiership after knocking over Bonbeach by nearly six goals. David Bodley put on a footy clinic for the Stonecats, booting seven goals in a best on ground display. It was a massive day for the club with Ben Tellis playing his 250th game, Tony Lester his 200th and Anthony Barry his 150th. The three genuine stars of the competition celebrated in style. The Stonecats not only hit the scoreboard but they also restricted the opposition to just three goals in the first half of the match. That’s where the game was won. Byron Barry and Kyle Hutchison dominated in the 14.9 (93) to 9.4 (58) victory. Dylan Jones was superb in the ruck for the Sharks while Mark Tyrrell and Paul Rebeschini were also tireless in their efforts. Mornington was forced to work hard to get the four points against Seaford. The Doggies trailed at half time and held just a three point lead at the final change. However, the likes of Barry Smeeton and Emilio Bitters stepped up to the plate when the game needed to be won in the final term and with Adrian Speedy booting three goals, the Dogs went on to record a 14.11 (95) to 10.17 (77) victory. The Tigers booted 4.7 in the second half, which really did have an impact on the final result. Josh Stokes was the best of the Tigers. Edithvale Aspendale gave Karingal a hiding, winning 23.22 (160) to 4.4 (28). Brad Tagg booted six goals and Matt Kremmer four for the Eagles while Craig Wray and Zac Muschialli dominated. Hadley Tomamichael, Tom Wilkinson and Michael Burke were the best of the Bulls.

Nepean hots right up, Rye play to potential NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt WHAT a sensational round of football in Nepean League on Saturday. At the end of it, Crib Point was sitting pretty on top of the ladder, a game clear of Dromana, Sorrento and Red Hill. Rosebud kept its season alive with a good victory over Hastings, while Sorrento moved into the top three for the first time this season with a win against Red Hill. Dromana lost its second game on the trot on Saturday, beaten by Rye, who are now starting to find a bit of form. With fifth spot still wide open, the sides fighting for it really needed to grab hold of the opportunity. Rye certainly did that, as did Rosebud, while Hastings failed to grab its opportunity. Many believe in the competition that Rye is one of the best three sides in the league, on paper that is… On Saturday, it matched its potential with its performance on the field where it matters, especially after quarter time. The Tigers jumped out of the blocks and within a blink of an eye, the quarter time siren had sounded and Rye found themselves 33 points down at the change. Rye worked back into the game in the second quarter with an eight goal to two burst to grab a 3-point lead at the halfway mark of the match. The third quarter was pretty even and the game was anyone’s at the final change. The Demons got out to a 19-point lead in the last quarter before the Tigers came back to get within seven points. The Demons steadied and pushed the margin back out to 13 before Dromana surged again. With just two minutes left on the clock, the Tigers had reduced the margin back to a goal. That was the final margin, Rye winning 16.8 (104) to 15.8 (98). Andrew Dean was superb for the Demons, booting six goals, while Ben Holmes dominated across half forward with four majors. The performance of these two

Brothers in arms: The Doria brothers James, Alex and Chris all played for Devon Meadows for the first time in the same side on Saturday. The Panthers thrashed Tyabb 138-42 to give the trio a big win to celebrate.

proved that they both need to play forward. Aaron Findlay shared the ruck duties with Rhett Sutton and Chris Gleeson played higher up the field, rather than being a stay at home full forward. Ryan Semmel was dominant once again for the Demons while Jai Lloyd was simply superb, shutting down the dangerous Anthony Bruhn. The Tigers went into the game without Steven Gaertner and Ash Waterstone. They were far from full strength. However, word is Gaertner’s performances generally have been well below par and he has a lot of improving to do. Jay Neratzoglou was able to play a different kind of role and that netted a couple of goals for him, while Christian Ongarello was also very good over four quarters. The Rye win really does show that the premiership race is wide open in Nepean League. Sorrento celebrated its 1964 and

2004 Premiership Reunions with a hard fought victory over Red Hill. Star forward Leigh Poholke has taken his game to a new level this season and his seven goals on Saturday was the difference between his side winning and losing. Poholke’s seven goals did come at a cost. He was reported in the second quarter by the goal umpire. He spent 15 minutes on the sidelines but Red Hill couldn’t capitalise. They missed easy opportunities in front of goal and then gave away two 50 metre penalties that resulted in Sorrento goals, their only two majors of the quarter. Instead of going into the half time break in front, the Hillmen were seven points down. The final margin was just 10 points, the Sharks winning 12.14 (86) to 11.10 (76). Michael Dillion, Jimmy McCall and Jarryd Douglas with four goals were the best of the Hillmen, while Poholke was the stand out player for the Sharks.

Ryan Jeffrey also worked hard for the winners, as did Matt Dobrowalski, Johnny Casper and Daniel Grant. Rosebud is still in finals contention after hanging on to beat Hastings by 10 points. The Buds booted only 20 points last week against Rye but accuracy in front of goal this week ensured victory. The Buds won the match 12.6 (78) to 9.14 (68). Rosebud set up the win with a seven goal to two second quarter, giving them a 19-point buffer at the major interval. Once again, Hastings let themselves down with one poor quarter of footy. It was an arm wrestle after half time and Hastings had plenty of chances but they just couldn’t get the job done. Keegan Downie was a welcome addition for the Buds with four goals, while Tom Baker was also superb with four majors. Ben Dwyer also dominated, along with Chris Dew and Brenton Payne. Steven Robb was once again

Hastings’ best, along with Kain and Taylor Stratton, who have been outstanding this season for the Blues. At three quarter time in the match between Somerville and Crib Point, it looked like the Eagles were going to cause the boilover of the season. They led by 28 points at the main change. However, 30 minutes later, the Magpies had booted seven goals to two to snatch victory by a goal. It was the third time this season that the Pies had won by a goal or less. Jon Flack with six goals was the difference between the sides. He was superb. Paul Smith and Luke Herrington each booted two goals for the Pies and their contribution to the win was significant. David Hirst booted four for the Eagles and Adrian Ridout was back and he booted three majors. Cal Dixon, Jedd Sutton and Leigh Stewart were the best performers for the Eagles. 16-year-old James Doria made his senior debut for Devon Meadows against Tyabb on Saturday and booted a goal with his first kick. James also went on to boot a further two majors for the match. It was the first time that the three Doria brothers, James, Alex and Chris (pictured) had played footy together. You get the feeling it won’t be the last! The Panthers were far too strong for the Yabbies, as expected, winning 20.18 (138) to 6.6 (42). James Bow booted eight for the winners while big name players Stef Baumgartner, Billy Hayes, Cal O’Hare and Brian Wapshott were at their best. Jake Anderson was once again Tyabb’s best, also booting two goals. Frankston Bombers enjoyed another victory, this time getting the job done over Pearcedale, 15.12 (122) to 5.7 (37). Duncan Proud was superb and arguably the best man on the ground for the Bombers with three goals while James Degenhardt was also dominant. Corey Macari also played his best game of senior football. Chris Fortnam booted four goals for the Dales and was comfortably his team’s best player.

Crunch time: Rosebud got up over Hastings by 10 points to keep its season alive as Nepean League teams vie for finals berths. Pictures: Andrew Hurst
