Medals of memories: A veteran attending an Anzac Day service on the Mornington Peninsula. Picture: Supplied
Ceremonies across the peninsula for Anzac Day ANZAC Day services and marches will be held at 12 Mornington Peninsula towns on Anzac Day, Thursday 25 April. Services will be held at different times and locations throughout the day to ensure everyone has an opportunity to attend and pay tribute to those who served and died in war. Traditional dawn services are planned, as well as marches and additional remembrance services later in the day. This year’s Anzac Day marks the 104th anniversary of the Gallipoli landing in 1915. The spirit of Anzac continues to play a role in the community through the qualities of courage, mateship and sacrifice. The mayor Cr David Gill said the shire was “looking forward to supporting community events around the peninsula that will give everyone an opportunity to reflect on the meaning of Anzac Day”. Cr Gill said Anzac Day was a time for reflection, gratitude and remembrance of the Anzac landings at Gallipoli. “Every year around Australia thousands pay tribute to, and remember, those who served. Anzac Day is a time for our community to remember the sacrifices made by service men and women for our country.” Continued Page 14
‘Concentrate’ to cut toll Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au HIGHWAY patrol police are pleading for greater awareness on the roads this Easter and Anzac Day holiday time following three deaths on Frankston and Mornington Peninsula roads. The deaths of an 86-year-old woman hit by a car while walking across Nepean Highway, Frankston; a McCrae
youth, 17, who was a passenger in a speeding car which hit a tree in Field Street, Tootgarook; and a 38-year-old man whose car ran off the road into a tree on Browns Road, Rye, has police reeling and families in mourning. Circumstances surrounding each of these fatalities are still being investigated. Up until midnight Tuesday 16 April, 96 people had died on the state’s roads compared to 58 in the same period last
year – up 65 per cent. Motorcyclists are especially vulnerable with 22 deaths. With many people taking a break from Good Friday right through to the Anzac Day weekend, the stage is set for more deaths at a traditionally dangerous time on our roads – unless drivers place a greater emphasis on road safety. Leading Senior Constable Greg Wolfe, of Somerville Highway Patrol, said extra police would be out patrol-
ling the roads as part of Operation NEXUS which began on Good Friday eve and continues until after the Anzac Day weekend. He said the main aim for all drivers should be to concentrate on the road ahead – especially on rural roads which have claimed the lives of 59 people compared to 26 on urban Melbourne roads. Other precautions road users should take are not to drive while affected by
drugs or alcohol or when tired, and not to get into a car being driven by someone who is drug or alcohol affected. “Try and get them to not drive,” Leading Senior Constable Wolfe said. “Think Uber, taxi, or designated driver instead. “Make sure you wear your seat belt and drive according to the conditions – and certainly within the speed limit. If you don’t have a valid or current licence, then don't drive.”

Time is tight for budget comment

Mayor’s tasty shopper reward MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire mayor Cr David Gill wore his gold chain to go shopping at Mornington’s Wednesday street market. But it wasn’t just the gold adornment that made Cr Gill stand out among the crowd, it was also the small party of fellow shoppers he was leading, followed all the time by a film crew.
The mayor’s shopper “reward” came a later when the market’s fresh produce was used by a three-star Michelin chef to make Chinese meals for a dinner at Barmah Park Restaurant and Cellar Door, Moorooduc. The shopping expedition, making and eating of the meal was all part of a “reality TV show” being made about food and wine on the peninsula for
broadcast in China, Cr Gill said. The cast and crew also filmed at Hickinbotham of Dromana and several other locations. “They bought organic food at the market as well as going to the fish shop and butcher’s,” Cr Gill said. “The finished meal was a case of eat your heart out, if you weren’t there.” Keith Platt

RATEPAYERS have until Friday (26 April) to comment on Mornington Peninsula Shire Council’s proposed 2019/20 budget. The mayor Cr David Gill said he had already received “a lot of feedback” from beach box owners facing a rise from a flat $445 a year licence fee to up to $1200 (“Cashing in on beach boxes” The News 9/4/19). Cr Gill last week said licence fees for bathing boxes had been $50 a year in 1980 but since then their holders had been able to sell them for “hundreds of thousands of dollars”. “If they’re complaining about the cost, why not put the licence on the market,” he said. Cr Gill said the shire had “listened to your feedback to fund the projects, initiatives and services that meet your needs and expectations” when framing the proposed budget. “The proposed budget includes changes to some elements of the rating strategy, including a focus on green wedge protection and an increase to the waste service charge,” Cr Gill said. The largest expenditure in the $69.9 million 2019/20 capital works budget is $45m preliminary works for the Rosebud Aquatic Centre. Other capital works include: $2.1m Mornington Community Centre; $2m Crib Point Recreation Reserve pavilion and change rooms; $2.3m on buildings; $9.1m roads
and road safety; $2.4m footpaths and trails; $5.4m parks, open spaces and streetscapes; $3.3m drainage; $3.3m leisure and community centres. A $3.8m priority projects program includes integrated transport planning; wastewater management; Tootgarook Wetland and green wedge management; Tyabb-Somerville recycled water scheme; weed management; and township planning. Details: mornpen.vic.gov.au/budget or phone 1300 850 600.
Rates review THE state government last week announced a “full review” of the state’s municipal rating system. Local Government Minister Adem Somyurek said the review will be undertaken by an independent panel led by former Royal Children’s Hospital and City of Melbourne CEO, Dr Kathy Alexander. The panel is expected to present the results of its review in March 2020. Mr Somyurek said the existing rates cap “which has stopped a decade of average annual six per cent increases” would remain. The panel will look at municipal rates and charges; rating exemptions and concessions applying to land; and, the autonomy of local governments to apply a rating system that considers local factors.

FEDERAL ELECTION 2019
Gas imports rising as major poll issue
Lining up for votes: Candidates for the federal seat of Flinders at a meeting in Dromana on Wednesday 17 April are, from left, are Julia Banks (independent), Joshua Sinclair (Labor), Greg Hunt (Liberal), Susie Beveridge (independent) and Nathan Lesslie (Australia Greens). Picture: Julia Stockigt
Candidates on stage for questions FIVE candidates contesting the seat of Flinders in next month’s federal election faced a crowd of about 100 at a meeting last Wednesday (17 April) in Dromana. Organiser Robyn Coughlin said the top five areas of interest in questions to candidates submitted by those at the meeting were the national disability insurance scheme (NDIS); housing affordability; wages growth; income support payments; and the environment. The main issue for the candidates had been “representatives’ connection to their electorate”. Candidates at the event were Greg Hunt (Liberal), Joshua Sinclair (Labor), Julia Banks (independent), Nathan Lesslie (Australian Greens) and Susie Beveridge (independent)., Ms Coughlin said one protester was quickly “ejected from the venue but every other candidate and member of the community treated each other very respectfully”. “I am thrilled with how the event unfolded as many attendees reported feeling much more
engaged and more informed about how to use their vote,” she said after the meeting. Ms Coughlin earlier this month told The News she was holding the meeting as a way of encouraging engagement in the political system. She said she was not affiliated with any political party and was paying about $1000 to provide “a free community event” run by volunteers. “After the surprising result of the state election in the Nepean electorate [part of the larger Flinders federal electorate won by Labor after 14 years being held by Martin Dixon for the Liberals] and more broadly, I think it provides a great opportunity to get more people actively engaged without having to necessarily align themselves with a specific party or cause,” Ms Coughlin said. “I love this place and believe it can only get better if our representatives know that their community are engaged and will hold them to account.” Keith Platt
CANDIDATES for the federal seat of Flinders will again have their chance to explain their views on power company AGL’s plans to import natural gas through a floating terminal at Crib Point at a public meeting on 1 May. They were grilled on their views about importing the gas and the building of a pipeline to Pakenham at a public meeting in Dromana last Wednesday (17 April), although the May meeting is being held by Save Westernport, which was formed specifically to fight the AGL proposal. Save Westernport spokesperson Julia Stockigt said most of the candidates for Flinders had accepted an invite to attend the meeting. Known candidates before this week’s close of nominations were sitting MP Greg Hunt (Liberal), Joshua Sinclair (Labor), Julia Banks (independent), Susie Beveridge (independent), Nathan Lesslie (Greens) and Christine McShane (United Australia). “The meeting, dubbed ‘Mayday!, SOS for Westernport’, refers to the threat the controversial project presents to local residents and the protected marine ecosystems of Western Port,” Ms Stockigt said. “The purpose of the meeting is to update the community about AGL’s plans to import and process gas at Crib Point.” Ms Stockigt said the 56 kilometre long pipeline to Pakenham would disrupt “critically endangered wetlands and productive farming properties”. “Save Westernport is not aligned with any political party or candidate, but the group’s continuing work opposing AGL’s controversial plans was recently endorsed by independent
candidate Julia Banks when she introduced a petition in federal parliament,” she said. The petition called on the government to honour its international obligations as a signatory of the Ramsar convention to protect Western Port’s threatened wetlands. “People are understandably concerned about AGL’s plans,” Save Westernport president Louise Page said. “Our meeting will give them the opportunity to hear from our federal representatives what action they will take if elected to stop this dangerous and ill-conceived plan. “All aspects of the project are currently under review in a state government-ordered environmental effects statement, which has already significantly set back AGL’s plans. “Irrespective of its findings, and of AGL’s controversial attempts to win local support with gifts of money to select community groups, members of Save Westernport believe that AGL does not have the social licence needed to operate in this community. “The project would put Western Port at risk to import Victoria’s own gas back into the state at enormous profit to the AGL corporation.” Ms page said the Mayday meeting was endorsed by Environment Victoria and “will be a chance for residents and visitors to the area to stay informed about the project and this community’s continuing efforts to encourage AGL to seek more appropriate alternative ventures”. The 7pm Wednesday 1 May meeting will be held at Balnarring Hall.

Car ploughs into restaurant EASTER trading hours at a Balnarring Chinese restaurant were thrown into disarray last week when an elderly man hit his car’s accelerator instead of the brake and rammed through the front window. The man, from the Hastings area, was not injured in the incident in which his Toyota sedan ploughed into Hoolies Inn at Balnarring Shopping Centre, 10.30am, Thursday 18 April. The restaurant, established for 28 years, was not open at the time. Owner Shirley Li said the area around the front door was hit hardest. “We hope we will be able to open Saturday evening,” she said.
“This is the first time in all these years that we have suffered any damage like this.” Sergeant Simon Noonan, of Hastings police, said the man was assessed by paramedics and allowed to go home. Ms Li said the man’s daughter came by afterwards to say he was sorry for the damage he had caused. Repair costs had not been assessed late Thursday. Shire engineers reportedly found no structural damage to the building. Sergeant Noonan said the cause was still being investigated. Stephen Taylor

Fighting the good fight for mankind A FORMER soldier who is devoted to promoting world peace says our real enemies are not guns or wars – but the physical and emotional harm we do to others simply because we have not been taught to eradicate it from our nature in childhood. Ninety-three-year-old Baxter man James Hearn says the research he conducted for his book World Peace identified the “harmful side of human nature” as mankind’s “one and only foe”. “I believe getting rid of the harm we do to others is our only solution to world peace,” he said. “It is the only enemy which mankind has failed to recognise and getting rid of it would change human nature for the better. “The message needs to be got across to the world media for there to be any good, I also believe.” The background to Mr Hearn’s “lifetime’s work” started at a young age when the former Moorooduc schoolboy overcame a series of nightmares which he identified as his defeat of good over evil. Soon after, the death of his best friend early in World War II steered his thoughts towards the evils of war. “What immediately came to mind then was that mankind is not stupid and there had to be an answer to war,” he said. “From then on I began to look for the answer and my search ended 34 years later – in 1979 – when I real-

ised we had been fighting the wrong enemy. “This is why we have never been able to create lasting peace in the world.” Over the next 20 years the prolific letter writer had more than 100 letters published in newspapers until, in 2006, he began writing his first book: The Hidden Mysteries How to Live. It was published in 2012. Sadly, he says he finds politicians, leaders and the world press “uninterested in my answer”. “Is it to do with money and the fact more is being made in wartime?” he asks. Condensed into easily digestible chunks, his World Peace book now in

its seventh edition promotes the idea that most of human nature cherishes love and understanding over hurting people. The tragedy is that ideals of harm and violence have been handed down through the generations via literature, movies, TV shows, and news bulletins. “How silly can we be?” he asks. “The answer is to train our children from birth to show care and compassion so that it becomes second nature to them all through their lives.” And this message has to go global so that people all over the world are on the same page and children are taught to care for others from an early age.

“Primary schools should teach values before skills and not leave it to parents to teach values and behaviour,” he said. “Life is about creating peace, joy, happiness and freedom. Most of us do not want war, we want peace. We simply need to bring up new generations of young children through enlightened parents together with a global education system.” The reality is stark: “We can go along as we have for thousands of years with harm, violence and destruction, or we can simply decide to change and begin to conquer evil. It is simple.”

Bin lesson learned CHARACTERISTIC resourcefulness has helped environmental campaigner Josie Jones clean up a mess alongside a Rye charity bin. The bin, pictured, was full to overflowing with clothes scattered all around it. But, after doing some research and making a few calls, Ms Jones got some action. “Often, as a community member, things are not always as they seem and helping out is often the best way forward,” she said. “I managed to find the guy in charge of these bins and learned a few things along the journey.” Ms Jones was told that management changes and an audit meant the bin’s owners were not aware of all locations. This meant collections were sometimes delayed at this particular bin which is a “great resource for SIDS”. Following on from her call the phone number and sticker have been updated, so if residents see donations piling up, they can call to have the bin emptied. Recycling company Savers buys donated items by the kilogram and surplus goods are recycled. “The bins are now tidy, empty and have a new life,” she said. “Job done, pre-Easter to the benefit of everyone.” Stephen Taylor 12404323-DJ46-18

‘Think tank’ to guide future waste strategy A ‘THINK tank’ discussion to help guide the direction of Mornington Peninsula Shire’s waste review will be held tomorrow night (Wednesday 24 April) at the Rosebud council chambers. It comes as the state government drags its feet on waste recovery and recycling processes following the ban on collections from China. The think tank is part of a push by the council to hear community ideas while developing a waste strategy that reflects industry changes as well as supporting the community, shire operations and the environment. The forward planning committee meeting will guide the direction of the council’s waste review. Recommendations from the meeting will go to the next council meeting for consideration. Anyone wanting to make a three minute verbal submission must RSVP. The mayor Cr David Gill said the council would develop a strategy with community input while continuing its advocacy to the state government. “We want to hear from our community on this important issue that impacts us all,” he said. “Council will be bringing together all ideas from everyday actions to innovation, on everything waste and recycling. “We will continue to advocate to the state government that it address the recycling crisis via the Municipal Association of Victoria and exploring waste to energy technology in partnership with other metropolitan councils.” Cr Simon Brooks, who represents the council at the Metropolitan Waste and Resource Recovery Forum, said while council was seeking action from all levels of government, members of the community can make changes at a local level. “You can take action in your own home
by understanding what waste you generate, how you can avoid it in the first place, and how you can reduce your impact on our environment.” The forward planning committee meeting will be held at the shire offices, 90 Besgrove Street, Rosebud, at 6.30pm.

Green waste disposal RESIDENTS and ratepayers can dispose of green waste for free at Mornington Peninsula Shire’s transfer stations on 3, 4 and 5 May. Green waste includes all types of garden waste and untreated timber, which must be brought to transfer stations by residential vehicles and trailers only. No commercial vehicles or commercial green waste will be accepted. Proof of residency is required, such as a driver’s licence with a current address or current rates notice. Delays can be expected at the transfer stations, particularly at the beginning and end of each day. Consider using the Tyabb site to avoid delays at Mornington. The Mornington tip can accept only up to three cubic metres of green waste per trip. Transfer stations are at Truemans Road, Rye; McKirdys Road, Tyabb, and Watt Road, Mornington. Opening hours are 8am-4pm Friday and 8am-5pm Saturday and Sunday. Residents living in the “urban area” of the shire can also pay extra for a 240 litre fortnightly kerbside green waste bin collection.

Hunt continues for source of diesel
Whales, dolphins A TALK on dolphins and whales will be held at Mt Martha House, 10.15am for a 10.30am start, Saturday 27 April. Speaker Jeff Weir is the founding director of the Dolphin Research Institute and has a background in marine biology, education and business. The Frankston resident will talk about people and whales that demonstrate the impact passionate citizen-scientists can deliver. He will explain the work of the Hastings-based Dolphin Research Institute and the 'i sea, i care' program. The award-winning underwater photographer, who was awarded an Order of Australia Medal for his contributions to marine conservation, has presented papers at scientific and education conferences. His The dolphin book was published in 2009. The talk is free for members or a gold coin donation with morning tea provided. Bookings are essential at trybooking.com/BBSOV
Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au EPA investigations into the source of fuel spills at Dromana are “ongoing” with booms remaining in place to prevent diesel reaching the sea. The issue flared when a Safety Beach resident complained of diesel fumes after bathing opposite Marine Drive, Dromana (Diesel fumes taint sand, water The News 17/4/2019). Rob Debernardi said the drain – opposite a long-established BP service station – was flowing strongly after heavy rain. “I scooped up a handful of wet sand and smelled it and there was no mistaking [the diesel smell],” he said. “I could also see the sheen [of diesel] floating on the water.” His complaints to the EPA seemed to have fallen on deaf ears until a work crew arrived Thursday 11 April and set up booms to prevent any surface oil entering the bay. Mr Debernardi later dug around a drain on the foreshore opposite a Caltex service station further along Pt Nepean Road and again smelled “extremely strong” diesel fumes. The News is not suggesting the spilled fuel is coming from either service station. A Caltex spokesperson said the company was “not aware of any significant spills or leaks at the Dromana site [107 Pt Nepean Road, Dromana] since taking over the lease in July 2017”. “We understand previous complaints have been made about odours … in the drain which runs adjacent to the service station, including the culvert running to Safety Beach.
ROB Debernardi at Dromana beach where fuel-polluted drain water meets the sea. Picture: Keith Platt
“We understand this drain was cleaned out in December 2018 by the previous operator and we have recently brought the issue to their attention for further investigation and action. “Caltex operates all its sites in line with our environmental policies and industry best practices and conducts regular environmental monitoring at the Dromana site to ensure these standards are upheld.” A maintenance crew was spotted digging around a fuel pump at the Dromana BP service station on Sunday 14 April. The owner of the site, AA Holdings, of Collingwood, would not comment on the work being done, or confirm if a leak was being repaired.

A foreshore committee contact, who asked not to be named, said “various government departments” had been made aware of diesel leaks in the area “over some time”. “We have been very concerned about it,” they said. EPA Southern Metro Region manager Marleen Mathias confirmed “what appears to be a hydrocarbon (fuel) outflow at Safety Beach, Wednesday 10 April”. “EPA officers identified a drain emptying into the bay [that] had a strong odour to it, potentially of petrol or diesel,” she said. “Working with Oil Response Company of Australia, temporary booms

were put in place to contain the outflow while investigations were made to identify the source. “EPA has established some leads and will conduct further assessment to positively identify the source of the hydrocarbons. “Once a source is established, steps can be taken to ensure the problem is rectified and cleaned up.” Mornington Peninsula Shire’s manager infrastructure services Jessica Wingad said the drain and outlet was owned by Melbourne Water. “The EPA is now dealing directly with Melbourne Water to investigate the source of the pollution and manage the outfall,” Ms Wingad said.

THE man often called the Father of Sorrento will be the subject of an exhibition at The Sorrento Museum, 827 Melbourne Road, Sorrento, later this month and in May. Opening times are 1.30-4.30pm on the weekends of 27-28 April, 4-5 May, 11-12 May, and 18-19 May. Visitors will learn more about George Coppin, a 19th century actor, entrepreneur, visionary, politician and cricket enthusiast who was born into an English theatrical family in 1819 and, throughout his life, was involved in acting. Sailing into Port Phillip he saw the site of what was to become Sorrento and began planning its development as a seaside resort. His vision continues to this day. He and his associates built the iconic Continental Hotel – the tallest limestone building in Australia – and the Mechanics’ Institute which is now home to the Sorrento Museum. Realising the potential of the area he connected the then village to Melbourne by paddle steamer and later the front beach to the back beach by tram. Nepean Historical Society/Sorrento Museum secretary Val Stieglbauer said the exhibition would include tickets, teacups, photographs, postcards and old film footage of the trams from the days when paddle steamers brought visitors to Sorrento, as well as a photo collection of Coppin’s stage characters.

Political spotlight switches on to sport LIKE their federal counterparts, state governments are also splashing cash on community infrastructure. Last week, new and upgraded lighting was announced for ten sports fields, thanks to a funding contribution from the state government. Local government minister Adem Somyurek met with Nepean MP Chris Brayne to announce a halfshare financing of Mornington Peninsula Shire’s
$2.1 million sports growth lighting package. Their efforts will shine a light on ten sporting reserves during evening and night-time use, including at AR & F Ditterich Reserve, Main Ridge and Civic Reserve Athletics Track, Mornington. Mr Brayne said the state government was “getting on with building the facilities our area needs to thrive”. Stephen Taylor
Memories flood in on ‘golden’ night
Shire leaders offer to meet and talk
Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A MT ELIZA couple who celebrated their 50th wedding anniversary last week have strong links to one of the world’s most important medical achievements. Estelle Gold – who with husband Neil enjoyed their “golden” night at Mornington Golf Club on Friday 12 April – was nurse-in-charge of the transplant unit where famed South African cardiac surgeon Dr Christiaan Barnard performed the first heart transplant in 1967. Ms Gold, then in her 20s, vividly remembers the remarkable day at Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town, when Dr Barnard performed the “highly political” transplant, the first one in which the patient regained consciousness. The man died 18 days later of pneumonia but the second transplant patient, who Ms Gold says was “much healthier” survived “for years”. “At the time it was so interesting,” she said. “To take the heart out of a patient while the replacement heart is sitting in a kidney bowl waiting to be put in … It was like a science fiction movie.” As part of his preparations for the first human transplant, Dr Barnard had studied reports of kidney and tissue transplants in the US and France, as well as conducting heart-transplant experiments on feral dogs. “The dogs lived, so Dr Barnard knew heart transplants worked but
Let’s celebrate: Fiftieth wedding anniversary couple Estelle and Neil Gold. Pictures: Andrew Hurst
it was very political because the head of the hospital thought it was too experimental to do on humans,” Ms Gold said. “However, Dr Barnard had a lot of end-stage patients and the alternative for them would have been death. “Now, it is commonplace and we have learned all about immune drugs and tissue-typing.”
Arriving in Australia in 1981, after five years in Canada, the Golds moved to Mt Eliza where she became a nurse-educator and Mr Gold set up a spray painting and plastics business in Dandenong. Ms Gold studied for her Bachelor and later Master of Education and taught clinical nursing at various hospitals, including Frankston Hospital and
the former Mt Eliza Hospital where she was head of the nursing school. “Working there was ideal because I could teach in the classroom and then take the nurses straight down to the wards – that is the best way to teach.” Ms Gold retired eight years ago, but the memories and friendships she made will last a lifetime – not the least being in on a world-first operation.
BILLED as a “meeting of minds”, Morninton Peninsula Shire mayor Cr David Gill and CEO John Baker are offering to meet residents to “discuss issues and ideas that affect their local community”. Cr Gill said both he and Mr Baker were “looking forward” to the meetings. “We’re excited to be spending time with residents and hearing from them about what’s happening in their local areas,” he said. “I think we can work together to improve the areas we live in, and these meetings are one way to achieve that goal.” Residents can apply to attend a 25-minute meeting and can request to bring guests to the meeting. During the application process, supporting documents can be submitted for consideration before the meeting takes place. “By holding these meetings each month, we hope to encourage residents to make the most of the opportunity and share ideas and concerns,” CEO John Baker said. The monthly, day time meetings will be held at shire offices in Rosebud, Mornington and Hastings.

Our Waste Future The waste and recycling industry has seen major changes over the last three years with significant disruption at a local level in 2019. The EPA’s closure of recycling processor SKM had a devastating impact on Mornington Peninsula Shire Council resulting in all kerbside recycling being sent to landfill. While Council continues to advocate all levels of government for urgent short and long-term solutions, it is calling on the Peninsula community to join its waste review. The review will inform and empower the community to work together with Council on long term solutions that: reflect industry changes; support the community; strengthen Shire operations and protect the Peninsula’s precious environment. As part of this review, a new Waste Strategy will be developed through feedback from the Forward Planning Committee Meeting, Waste Forum and further community consultation, bringing together ideas, from everyday actions to innovation, on all things waste and recycling.
What is Council doing?
• Borrow or buy second hand
• Working with SKM to resolve the processing of our kerbside recycling is our top priority
• Bring reusable bags when you shop – don’t buy single use plastics
• Supporting the Municipal Association of Victoria’s Rescue Our Recycling Action Plan, which sets out key actions for all levels of government including a welldesigned Container Deposit scheme
• Compost your food waste
• Making a submission to the parliamentary enquiry into Recycling and Waste Management • Ongoing exploration of alternative waste to energy technology in partnership with other Metropolitan Councils.
What can you do?
You can take action in your own home by understanding the waste you generate; how you can avoid it in the first place and how to reduce your impact on our environment. A few tips to get started: • Reduce packaging • Give your things a second life by upcycling or repairing
• Take three for the sea and pick up three pieces of rubbish when you visit our beaches • Take advantage of the free recycling Transfer Stations in the Shire • Join the conversation online using #rescueourrecycling on social media • Volunteer to be a Recycling Champion at: mornpen.vic.gov.au/recyclingchampions
Don’t forget our Forward Planning Committee Meeting tomorrow 24 April, 6.30pm Shire Offices, 90 Besgrove St, Rosebud For more information or to view the current Waste Strategy, visit: mornpen.vic.gov.au/ourwastefuture
Waste Forum Saturday 11 May, 10am – 2pm Peninsula Community Theatre, 91 Wilsons Rd, Mornington Our Waste Forum is back with the new theme Our Waste Future. Council invites everyone on the Peninsula to come along and learn more about what’s happening in the waste industry; how Council’s working to address and improve current waste issues; meet local community groups taking action to protect our environment and find out how you can make a difference.
No Charge Green Waste weekend 3, 4 & 5 May 8am – 4pm Friday 8am – 5pm Saturday & Sunday Resource Recovery Centres: • Rye: Truemans Road, Fingal • Tyabb: McKirdys Road • Mornington: Watt Road
Craig Reucassel from ABC’s War on Waste will join us as a guest panellist along with representatives from Council and industry experts to answer community questions around the future of waste on the Peninsula and across the world.
Submit a question
We want to hear your ideas and feedback ahead of the event to help inform our Q&A panel, submit a question or feedback in our Facebook event or online at mornpen.vic.gov.au/ourwastefuture
All Peninsula residents and ratepayers are invited to dispose of your green waste at no charge. Proof of residency required on the day. Green waste includes all types of garden waste and untreated timber. Waste must be delivered from residential vehicles and trailers – no commercial vehicles or commercial green waste will be accepted. Expect delays at Mornington and consider using the Tyabb site.

Outdated beliefs As a past long term resident of Mornington I did get quite close to the local Liberal Party. I found a culture of manipulation and nepotism that was being driven by neo-conservative males whose beliefs belonged in the 1950s. There are vast numbers of progressive Liberal voters on the peninsula who cannot bring themselves to vote Labor, but cannot tolerate incompetent extremists. It is refreshing to see that the voters of Flinders now have the opportunity to vote for a progressive independent Liberal in Julia Banks. Terry O’Shea, Halls Head, WA
The Adani failure As a former resident of the Mornington Peninsula it is heartening to see that, finally, the Rosebud aquatic centre is nearing reality in a logical and central location. How easy it is to forget the struggle to not build the aquatic centre on the environmentally-sensitive Rosebud foreshore a few short years ago. One of the key figures who supported that aborted project was [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt, who at the time was federal environment minister. Who can also forget Mr Hunt’s approval of the Adani coal mine that was subsequently overturned by the Federal Court, then re-approved (“Campaign looks back at the future” The News 16/4/19). That faulty approval was endorsed by another faulty approval by Environment Minister Melissa Price, who has now passed the buck to the Queensland Labor government. Make no mistake, the Adani mine has always been a creature of the Liberal Party. From the day then-deputy prime minister Tim Fischer signed an economic agreement with India which, although cancelled in 2017 by India, committed Australia to the agreement until 2032. The clause reads as follows: “the agreement shall continue to be effective for a further period of 15 years from the date of its termination in respect of investments made or acquired before the date of termination of this agreement. (Source: DFAT).
In August 2010, Adani bought the Carmichael mining rights from Linc Energy, now defunct, whose founder and managing director, Peter Bond, was a major Liberal donor. Subsequently, the mining proposal was approved by Greg Hunt and the project became official. Adani is part of the LNP’s DNA, and the LNP has weaponised this environmentally destructive and economically indefensible project. Labor’s position is almost impossible. Whatever it does, the Adani mine will blight Australia for a very long time. Ken Dyer, Landsborough, Queensland
Getting it wrong John Cain used the term “our” when explaining the actions of the far-left GetUp group (“Independent GetUp!” Letters 27/3/19). I took that as an endorsement of the group by Mr Cain, which he is certainly within his rights to do but, in light of revelations last week, I now wonder if Mr Cain has changed his views? A dossier from GetUp leaked to the media instructs volunteers to tell the constituents of Kooyong that Josh Frydenderg (sitting member) together with [Home Affairs Minister] Peter Dutton and [former prime minister] Tony Abbot, voted to oust Malcolm Turnbull [as prime minister]. That is a lie. Mr Frydenberg voted for Mr Turnbull in the first ballot and, when Turnbull lost, he supported Scott Morrison. This has been common knowledge since the ballot. It certainly makes you wonder what directives have been sent to volunteers in Flinders. Michael Free, Mount Martha
Email not foolproof Austin Johns and others have expressed concern about Julia Banks failure to respond to their emails (“Banks’ email record” Letters 9/4/19). This has not been my experience as I had received an automated response immediately and a personalised response soon afterwards. I belong to an organisation that for several years has been emailing me a monthly newsletter. For some reason, these stopped coming several

The gentleman responsible for sending the emails has assured the I am on his mailing list and has received no indication that there was a problem.

Wrongful claims When looking at your paper’s social media over the past week, I could not hide my absolute disgust at the actions of [Nepean MP] Chris Brayne in attacking one of the Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors. Cr [Antonella] Celi was rightly pointing out the $75 million secured by [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt for upgrading the intersection of Jetty Road [Rosebud] and the Mornington Peninsula Freeway and rightly saying Labor had not committed funds for this as the ruling state government for 16 of the last 20 years. Then Mr Brayne had the unmitigated audacity to claim this funding was due to him. No, dear sir. If you want the funding to be attributed to you, go get it off your own [state Labor] government. We don’t want excuses, we want action, and Mr Brayne’s actions over the past four months reek of someone who barely knows where the keys to his office are. Stop trying to claim credit for other peoples’ actions, stop fighting with other levels of government because you haven’t delivered, and get on with the job of governing. Peter Graham, Portsea Editor: Peter Graham told The News that he is a member of the Liberal Party.
Dumbing down John Kuchel is spot-on when he quotes GIGO (garbage in garbage out) when using a computer or a computerised model (“Climate reasoning” Letters 16/4/19)). There is another scientific axiom which states that if two valid theories are in conflict then neither is valid until proven. The undoubted substantial climate changes over
the past one thousand years or so, documented in written historical records and geological records, are theoretically caused by varying solar emissions right up to the present times; this warming causing, at the moment, extra carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and unknown consequences in the deep, slow responding oceans. The alternative theory is that the cause of warming is extra carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Many of us have a theory that fluoride is added to the drinking water, not at all for dental reasons, but as a chemical means to dumb down the population, stop the mind from being critical, make people compliant, be correct, be easily led and misled, to be GIGO. The proof of this theory is abundant. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington
Computer predictions It’s high time the religious zealots of anthropogenic climate change deniers retreated back to the catacombs they obviously lived in for too long. Ignoring the reality of scientists’ findings, of the human contribution and as a result acceleration of climate change will do nothing to avert the catastrophe of future sea level raises and desertification or flooding of some of our living space on earth. I say use computers and science to find a solution for this inevitable threat to humanity and thus alleviate the worst of the situation of anthropogenic climate change. I fear the present LNP government will agree with the cave dwellers on this issue and leave humanity floundering. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach
Need use for ‘old’ bread It sickens me and a lot of others that these trolley loads of day-old bread, rolls, buns and sconesseem to be thrown out when I’m sure there are plenty of people who could benefit. I shudder to think of the amount of waste that is disposed of each day from just bread shops alone. Except for my voicing my disapproval to any and all I meet I have no idea how to make any progress in changing this wasteful process. Sue Scheele, Dromana

WHAT’S NEW...
Ishinryu - Bruce Hyland Champions Karate ISHINRYU – Bruce Hyland Champions Karate (BHCK) is traditional Japanese karate and has been in operation for five decades offering classes for all ages, led by Sensei Bruce Hyland 7th Dan. Karate has many benefits for all ages whether you’re three or 73. Usually the reasons are for self-defence, health and fitness, discipline, confidence, self-control and sport which can lead to making great friends and testing new borne skills against others. Mini Mite 3 Years BHCK has designed a program for “mini mites” three years old, with the aid of mum or dad, you will learn the same karate skills as your child. Dragons 4-5 Years Introducing a specialised karate program designed for children aged four and five years old. Confidence, discipline, develops early socialising skills, instils discipline and carry out basic instructions. Ronins 6-12 years The Ronins program promotes these areas; fitness, discipline, dedication, determination, desire, self-confidence, self-esteem, self-development, selfdefence and leadership program as another benefit. Ronins all have the opportunity to compete at local, state, national and international levels. Teenagers - Adults Most teenagers enjoy participating in a variety of activities. This willingness to try new activities and meet new people builds their self-confidence and develops their social skills, by the time they become teenagers many give their
activities up and become unenthusiastic to try new ones. One reason for this is the onset of youth, which can quickly diminish a teenager’s self-confidence. Being a teenager comes with just being awkward in most social settings – at the dojo/school they do not have to compare themselves with anybody else they can be just themselves – their competitive nature will shine through, learning new skills like being an assistant teacher/ Sempai or role model to younger kids only improves their self-worth as human being. Karate has many benefits for adults
both women and men self-confidence, discipline, and development – you can do a short self-defence course, however, the skills unless very basic will not stand up in a real-life situation because of the intensity of the moment however karate is a unpretentious fighting art as in a real-life situation you either you fight (karate techniques are not complicated and do not require strength but accuracy, most basic techniques taught are simple and proven as effective and decisive, and practiced each week until they become reactive to an attack or in some type of counter. Once this automatic instinctive skill
is reached, more techniques are added to one’s repertoire) or flight (run, best option). THE YOGA DOJO – ‘the place to practice’ If you are looking for something that can help calm your mind and body, yoga is for you. Yoga is composed of a series of movements that can take good care of your overall health and well-being.

A new beginning …with a true local LOCAL solicitor Jimmy Lardner has taken on a new name and moved office for his long established and well known local firm, Jimmy Lardner and Associates. Now operating as Prudent Legal, Lardner says the move and change was triggered by his desire to service a broader segment of the local community in the Peninsula and importantly, to cater to its rapidly changing demands and demographics. With another new office in Rosebud, he says the firm has responded to the expanding needs of the community and demand for convenience. “Conservatism is steeped deep into the very lifeblood of our industry and whilst most of lawyers, particularly those of my generation, see great strength and virtue in practising law the conservative way, I felt it was also deeply important for my long established firm to evolve and meet the community’s expectations in our current day dynamic technology driven environment ” . “Prudent Legal embodies the fusion of decades of experience with advice that is holistic in its consideration of a client’s need and in the manner it is provided. Everything we do is about prudence for and focus on the client. Our name says it all”. He emphasised that whilst Prudent Legal will continue to innovate and mould its services through better utilisation of technology, it’s focus will never waver from deeply understanding it’s client’s needs foremost and advising them through good old fashioned friendly chats. “ I have been fortunate to have conservative work
ethics infused into me very early in my younger days by my father who was also a solicitor in Ireland”. He also prefers to resolve disputes through genuine negotiations and adopting a collaborative approach before resorting to litigation. “ Litigation is hugely expensive and sometimes, a greater unquantifiable and hidden cost for the client is the emotional toll it takes on them and their families. We advocate for parties to stay out of court as much as practicable and possible”. Avidly taking advantage of the outdoors fitness opportunities the Peninsula provides, he swims regularly in the bay, cycles, goes kayaking and plays tennis. “Maintaining a healthy and balanced lifestyle is so crucial in an environment that can often be challenging, stressful and incrementally rob you of quality in life. To be there for your family, to assist and support clients effectively and to enjoy the personal journey, I learnt a long time ago there was only one direction for me and that was to invest time into staying fit. It continues to pay dividends for me”. Lardner opened his first practice in Mt. Eliza in 1990and apart from operating in Mornington for a few years in the past decade, has remained locally here in order to cater to varying client’s needs from Frankston to the greater Mornington Peninsula area. “ I have lived here for over 20 years and simply love Mt.Eliza and the Peninsula”.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...
Brisk motor car business over Easter Compiled by Cameron McCullough The Peninsula Motor Garage Pty. Ltd. has added a Siddeley Densey motor car to its already fine flock of motor cars at the Mornington branch of the company. At the Frankston branch of the company during Easter week quite a number of visitors were daily noticed viewing the company’s superior 35 h.p. Itala. The general opinion was that no Victorian garage has a superior car plying for hire. Business was exceptionally brisk at the local garage, during Easter week. *** THE members of the Vestry of St Paul’s Church of England, Frankston had smiling faces after the Easter offering had been totalled. To use the secretary’s own words the response was excellent. *** FAREWELL to Major Conder. The public meeting held at Frankston on Thursday evening decided to entertain Major Conder at a banquet on the 8th May. Cr Oates was made Chairman of committee, and Cr. Mason secretary. It was also decided to arrange a social on a date to be fixed, and in another column the chairman invites the public to attend at the Mechanics’ Hall next Monday evening to arrange further details. *** MORNINGTON Peninsula Football Association. Delegates from Frankston, Mornington, Somerville, Hastings and Dromana Clubs met at Somerville on Wednesday evening.
The association was reformed and officers appointed for the year (A full report will appear in our next issue). The draw for the first round of matches resulted as follows: May 10 – Mornington v. Hastings; May 17 – Frankston v. Dromana; May 24th – Somerville, a bye. The games to be played on the ground of the first mentioned club. *** REV G. S. Lloyd, of Carnegie, will preach at Frankston on Sunday morning next, and at Somerville 3 and 7 p.m. in connection with the Sunday School Anniversary. *** FOR Children’s Hacking Cough Woods’ Great Peppermint Cure. 1s 9d and 2s 9d. *** DRIVER Hay returned home on Saturday night, and there was great rejoicing at Frankston House. Private E. Kinsman arrived home yesterday (Friday), and the town was beflagged in his honor. To celebrate the home-coming of Lieutentant W. Pentland, of the 46th Battalion, who has just returned from three years’ active service in Egypt and France, a week-end party was arranged at “The Ark,’ Frankston. Motoring was enjoyed during the day and music in the evenings, when Mr Lou. Murton (at the piano) was assisted by Mr. D. Kilgour and Mr Smitham. *** WE regret to learn that Mrs C. Tait of “Inverkeithing” Frankston, has been very ill, we are hoping for a speedy recovery.
*** MR S. Pearce, of “The Plaza” Frankston is able to be about again after several days illness which contained him to his room. *** PRIVATE Percy Darcy arrived by the Derbyshire on Tuesday after an absence of 3 years at the front. He is a brother of our townsman Mr G. Darcy who is also a returned man. Two other brothers of the same family have yet to arrive from which it will be seen that the Darcys took more than a small share in the great struggle. *** THE close of hostilities has brought about the demobilisation of many local soldiers among whom we note Lieut. W. Fisher, so well and favorably known to Frankston. With the single exception of Capt. Sherlock no local officer was more highly respected. For years he was a permanent member of the Frankston rifle club. His love for the profession of arms enabled him to fill the various positions from Private to Adjutant and in several occasions he was acting O.C at Langwarrin camp. He fought at Gallipoli and returned a commissioned officer badly wounded. *** TO raise funds for an Oakleigh family in distress, Miss Marion Montgomery and other horsewomen, assisted by members of the Melbourne Hunt Club have organised a gymkhana for Saturday, on the Oakleigh Cricket Ground.
The programme includes a number of novelty competitions. *** WORD has been received by Mr and Mrs J.Peebles of Frankston that their son, Private Peebles, is on his way to Australia and is expected to arrive in Melbourne early next month. *** PRIVATE Weller, nephew of Mrs Shannon of Frankston, who recently returned from the front, arrived in Frankston on Tuesday evening last. *** MR A. J. Tomas, of Petrie St, a resident of Frankston for some 30 years, has disposed of his property and intends removing inland for health reasons. He has we are informed procured a place in Shepparton where he intends entering into business in the nursery line. He has had nine years experience with the State Forest and Nursery branch. “Bob” was always to the fore in brass band work both here and in Melbourne and was recognised as one of the best players on the Peninsula in his particular line and his friends will wish him every success in his new sphere and hope that the change of climate will have the desired effect in improving the health of his family. *** THE expenditure contemplated for the Country Roads Board on its constitution under the act of 1912 was undoubtly affected by the financial stringency during the war and the drought period.
None the less, members of the State Parliament, while insistently demanding economy from the Administration, in consequence of the public outcry against extravagance, showed little disposition to curtail the work of the board, having in view the great value of that work as a developmental factor. Every year since its formation the board has been enabled accordingly to carry out considerable sections of the roads on its original plans. During this year the contracts let since 1st. July last for permanent works carried out with loan money have involved the expenditure of £218,900, allocated among 89 municipalities. The contracts for maintenance work total £57,000. The board is also pushing on with work under the Developmental Roads Act, passed in March, 1918, and the contracts let since 1st. July, 1918, for the construction of developmental roads have reached £91,000. Up to the present 22 shires are involved in these contracts, and a large proportion of this number belong to the Gippsland and Otway Forest districts. During the year the board has investigated numerous applications for roads to be constructed under the Developmental Roads Act, and has inspected 140 different roads in 45 municipalities. *** FROM the pages of the Mornington Standard, 26 April 1919

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES
Democracy – A Quick Recap For Those Who Came in Late By Stuart McCullough IT’S a little known fact. Democracy was founded in Athens in about 500 BC during the ‘classical antiquity’ period when a fellow named Cleisthenes invented the world’s first lamb and rosemary sausage and had no idea what to do with it. To make matters worse, he’d also accidentally come into a large number of loaves of Athenian Tip Top and needed to use them before both the bread and the idea went stale. And so it was that the idea of bringing people together for a slap-up feed while voting was born. The first version of democracy was direct rather than representative. That meant that rather than elect someone to parliament, you could turn up and vote yourself. The other feature of the system at that time is that they filled important posts by selecting people at entirely at random. This, I feel, is a concept ripe for reconsideration. Imagine if, rather than tedious political campaigns, people were sent to Parliament all because of a miscellaneous Wonka bar. It would be sweet in more than one way, although not all that different to the recent results of ‘preference harvesting’. As for Cleisthenes, little is known of the man who started it all. He was the younger son of Megacles who, I can honestly say, was always my favourite Transformer; and he introduced democracy after the tyrant [it’s] Hipias [to be square] was overthrown. Not happy with having invented a system of government that would endure for more than a millennia, Cleisthenes also invented the concept of ostracism – which isolated those people who, having become a little too full
PAGE 38
Mornington News
of themselves, looked as though they wanted to overturn the democratic system and rule as a tyrant. The first victim of this form of punishment was Cleisthenes himself. It proved that democracy can be both an unforgiving and unpredictable beast. Poor old Cleisthenes was rolled by the very thing he created. It was a predictor of things to come. The term ‘democracy’ is a mash up of the words ‘demos’ meaning ‘common people’ and ‘kratos’ which, obviously, refers to sauerkraut; a kind of pickled cabbage concoction that some people prefer to onions. Each to their own, I say. Not that it was an instant smash. Some good ideas take a while to get going, so despite widespread
23 April 2019
acceptance that barbecues are vital to social cohesion, it took a while. In England, the Magna Carta (or, if you prefer, the Great Charter of the Liberties) was a document drafted by the Archbishop of Canterbury to settle a dispute between King John and a group of rebel barons about whether or not it’s always sausage first and onion second. These things, it seems, are important. In the seventeenth century, regular elections were enshrined in the Bill of Rights. In practical terms, it meant there were checks on the power of the monarchy who, despite having a massive backyard, are yet to throw a decent barbecue. A mere eight hundred years later and we have reached a critical junc-
ture. Were it not for the prospect of getting a sausage in bread for your trouble, there’s a very good chance that democracy as we know it could collapse altogether. With an election looming, I find myself looking forward more to the sausage that will follow than the act of voting itself. It raises the question as to whether we’ve become so sick of the whole exercise that the day is now one gigantic school fete with a vote tacked on, rather than the other way around. There are good reasons for this. Sausage sizzles are more reliable in the sense that you get what you order. In contrast, if the past decade has taught us anything is that the public might vote for one result and,
part way through, get something else entirely. In the sausage sizzle game, you’d never get away with snatching a snag back from a customer and replacing it with bowl of porridge. There’d be uproar. Anarchy, even. And yet that’s the experience we’ve had for the past ten years or so. It’s enough to make you lose faith in the whole exercise. Churchill once said that democracy was the worst form of government except for all the others. It’s a somewhat bleak observation that I doubt he’d have made had he been clutching a banger at the time. Still, he has a point. What other choice is there? Despite the somewhat uninspired circumstances, there’s nothing to do but to rock up and fulfill your civic duty. May 18 will come and go, but at least there’s the warm glow that may or may not be indigestion that comes with eating a sausage. I’m not on Facebook so I’m not sure how the Russians are going in the misinformation stakes. And, like a lot of people, I don’t watch a lot of free to air television, so I’m unlikely to see the dismal concoctions the various political parties want to inflict on an unsuspecting public who just trying to watch Bachelor in Paradise in peace. But even from this distance, the whole thing feels hysterical and uninspired. If Cleisthenes turned up tomorrow, he’d doubtless scratch his head to see what has become of creation. On the one hand, it’s become a putrid, bleating mess that is fundamentally disconnected to the way anyone lives their lives. On the other, it comes with a light lunch. Bon appetite. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Stonecats stop unbeaten start DIVISION ONE
By Brodie Cowburn DROMANAâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;S impressive start to life in the first division of the MPNFL has come to an end, after they were defeated by Frankston YCW on Saturday. The Tigers so far had an unbeaten start in 2019, but were bested by the powerhouse Stonecats at John Coburn Oval. YCW were decent to start with, but Dromana stuck in and stayed within reach. The hard fought contest saw both teams struggle to hit the scoreboard, with the Tigers behind by ten points at half time. After the main break YCW broke the game apart, getting the upper hand with a six goals to two third term. Frankston YCW ran away with it in the end, and claimed victory 16.18 (114) to 9.8 (62). Lachlan Street was best afield for YCW for the second week in a row, kicking four majors. At Eric Bell Reserve, Pines were able to stamp their authority with a comprehensive win over Mornington. The reigning premiers were on top the entire afternoon, and were most impressive in defence. The Bulldogs only kicked one goal each in the first three quarters of the match. Guy Hendry was in form in front of goal and kicked four, helping the Pythons to a 13.13 (91) to 7.7 (49) win. Jackson Calder kicked four for the losing side. Another of the premiership favourites
this year is Sorrento, and they proved their credentials with a massive win on the road against Rosebud. Leigh Poholke was in red hot form for the Sharks, kicking seven goals to help his side to a massive 90 point victory. Things were close up until half time, with Rosebud only behind by 14 points at the main break. In the second half it was an onslaught, with the Sharks scoring 14 goals and Rosebud scoring two. When the final siren sounded the scoreboard read Rosebud 5.6 (36) to 19.12 (126). Frankston Bombers had a worse day than their cross town rivals as they went down to Mt Eliza at Emil Madsen Reserve. A close contest up until half time, Frankston Bombers were in with a chance and only behind by less than a kick at the main break. The Redlegs ran away with it in the second half, with a five goals to one final quarter sealing the deal. Mt Eliza defeated the Bombers 13.13 (91) to 7.12 (54). The script read just about the same at Regents Park, as a contest that was close at half time ended up blowing out to a comprehensive win. Edithvale-Aspendale would have fancied their chances at home, and were behind their Bonbeach opponents by two points at the main break. Bonbeach were hugely impressive in the second half, and ended up securing the win 10.5 (65) to 16.24 (120). Tom Lamb kicked five for Edi-Asp.

Fevola kicks five in MPNFL debut DIVISION TWO
By Brodie Cowburn BRENDAN Fevola ran out for his MPNFL debut on Saturday in front of a big home crowd at Hastings. The Blues took on Devon Meadows, who were looking to spoil the occasion. Devon Meadows started well and led at quarter time, but were eventually made to pay for inaccurate kicking. Coleman medallist Fevola was getting plenty of the footy for the Blues, and ended up kicking five goals for the game. Had he been more accurate in front of goal, it would have been a lot more. Both sides struggled to convert on their chances, but eventually it was Hastings who came out on top, with Fevola celebrating his debut with a win. Hastings claimed victory over Devon Meadows 13.18 (96) to 5.19 (49). At Crib Point Recreation Reserve, it was Red Hill who proved to the rest of the competition that they are the team to beat in 2019. Travelling to take on Crib Point, Red Hill were absolutely dominant. Coming off a huge win last week, the Hillmen managed to put together an even more complete performance. Crib Point failed to kick a goal for the entire afternoon. The siren sounded to put them out of their misery with the final scoreboard reading 0.3 (3) to
Picture: Andrew Hurst
27.12 (174). Harry Larwill kicked nine goals for the Hillmen. Jonathon Ross and Sean Marchetti kicked four each. Another premiership favourite in Karingal also claimed a big win over the weekend, as they got the better of Seaford. The Bulls got started on the right foot, getting things kicked off with a six goals to one first term. Seaford were little hope of clawing their way back after that, and succumbed to defeat 15.12 (102) to 7.7 (49). Karingal forward Marc Holt kicked seven goals to take his total for the year to 23 from four games. With the Bulls flying to start the year, the recruitment of Holt looks to be a huge success. The closest match of the weekend took place at Lloyd Park, as Langwarrin hosted Somerville. The Eagles were on top early, and looked as if they would run out with a comfortable victory. They were up by five goals at three-quarter time, but Langwarrin worked hard in the final term to chip that back. Despite a four goals to one final term, Langwarrin were defeated 13.9 (87) to 16.10 (106). At RJ Rowley Reserve, Rye scored a comfortable victory over Tyabb. Tyabb led at half time but Rye ran over the top of them in the second half. Rye claimed the win over Tyabb 16.12 (108) to 6.14 (50). Mornington News

Crook steals it for Skye United SOCCER
By Craig MacKenzie WHAT Jonathan Crook did to Upfield last week was night-time robbery. The big man from Matamata Swifts effected a string of remarkable saves to keep Skye’s nose in front and keep Upfield’s onslaught at bay in a pulsating FFA Cup tie. Try as it might Upfield could not find a way past Crook and Skye held on for a 1-0 win that clinched one of 32 Victorian spots remaining in the 2019 national competition. This clash had to be replayed after a floodlight failure in the 70th minute at Aston Fields in Craigieburn had forced an abandonment a week earlier with scores locked at 5-5. Now both sides were forced to travel to Darebin on a Tuesday night thanks to a bizarre Football Victoria decision and Skye was staring down the barrel as injury had claimed Gerard Lawler, Daniel Attard and Harrison Michaelis. However the local side was the benefactor of Aaryn Rix’s brief flirtation with Baxter and the new signing featured in the starting line-up. Skye scored in the 8th minute when a precise Mark O’Connor free-kick was powered home by the head of Daniel Walsh, his fifth goal of the competition. This was the cue for a bombardment of the Skye goal but a string of Crook saves kept Skye ahead while a rare chance on the break saw Jason Nowakowksi miss an opportunity to double the lead. Nothing changed in the second half as Upfield laid siege to the Skye goal and Billy Painting, John Andrinopoulos, O’Connor, Walsh and Nowakowski all received cautions. Skye midfielder Jack Gallagher was red carded in the 70th minute and despite Upfield breaking through on a number of occasions Crook was unbeatable. Skye gaffer Phil McGuinness was still marvelling at his keeper’s display the following day. “I’ve never seen a goalkeeper put on a display like that at amateur level,” McGuinness said. “It was unbelievable and when you have the opposition supporters applauding your performance you know you’ve done something right. “He’s an excellent keeper and I’m just glad I got to witness a display like that.” Upfield later congratulated Crook on its facebook page describing his effort as “exceptional”. Last Thursday night a second local club reached the round of 32 when

Langwarrin took care of business against State League 2 North-West ladder leader Corio with a 4-1 win at Hume Reserve in North Geelong. Despite this being a potential banana skin for the visitors Langy head coach Scott Miller gave debuts to former Melbourne Victory youngsters Luke Goulding and Dionis Shabani with Goulding playing as a central defender in a 3-2-4-1 formation and Shabani joining Jordan Templin as an attacking midfielder. Although Langy enjoyed the bulk of possession in the first half it took an own goal to give it a slender half-time lead. Five minutes into the second period Corio striker Alessandro Stefano equalised with a header but three goals in six minutes sealed the home side’s fate. Roddy Covarrubias was gifted a tap-in in the 60th minute after Corio keeper Tom Banks mishandled. Two minutes later Johnny Kuol made it 3-1 when he rounded his opponent at the far post and slotted home from close range. A trademark David Stirton free-kick bent around the defensive wall in the 66th minute completed the scoreline. Langy head coach Scott Miller is keen to take the side deep into the prestigious competition while maintaining its promotion challenge in NPL2 East. “A good cup run gives the club great exposure,” Miller said. “It’s a brilliant tournament and having worked with Foxsports last year and seen a number of games I think it’s a great concept. “For Langwarrin to be potentially playing an A-League club within four games would be amazing.”

But Miller’s focus now turns to the club’s league campaign with a challenging away fixture on Friday night against Moreland Zebras. Jaiden Madafferi has recovered from injury and is available for Friday’s match while Wayne Wallace returns from suspension. In State 3 news Frankston Pines recorded its first win of the season when it downed Monash Uni 2-0 at Tatterson Park in Keysborough on Saturday. This home match for Monash was mired in controversy as it could have been played a few weeks ago but the university side refused to reverse the fixtures and play on a Friday night under lights at Monterey Reserve, an option offered when it became known that Monash playing fields would be unavailable. Football Victoria’s competitions department had allocated pitch three, a grass pitch, for Saturday’s clash but Monash successfully argued that it had booked the venue’s synthetic pitch with the local council and that the game must be played there. The heat made conditions oppressive and Pines had keeper Alfonso Cardinale to thank for a 1-0 half-time lead after Monash had fashioned the better chances. Winger Sarmad Nikakhter was a constant menace down the left and could have put Monash ahead from a tight angle in the 5th minute but Cardinale spread himself well and blocked at the near post. In the 19th minute Pines’ central defender Cedric Benza was caught in possession but Cardinale saved his teammate’s blushes when he effected a superb smother to deny Nikakhter in a one-on-one. Pines broke the deadlock five min-

utes from half-time with a superbly constructed interpassing move down the right involving Stefan Soler, Travis Ernsdoerfer, CJ Hodgson and Jason Bradbury with Bradbury’s low drive from inside the area beating Monash keeper Alex Grantham. Two minutes into the second half Nikakhter pounced on a defensive lapse from Bailey Atkinson and hammered a low shot that cannoned off the near post and in the 53rd minute there were howls of protest from the Monash bench after Cardinale charged off his line and clashed with Arnie Clever leaving the winger sprawling on the ground as the referee waved play on. In the 65th minute Pines constructed a flowing move down the left and when Soler was brought down the referee had little hesitation in pointing to the spot. Again Monash was unhappy and it was touch and go whether or not the offence was inside the area. Up stepped Hodgson who had no trouble converting and for the first time this season Pines were cruising. Serge Yanez had come on in the second half and his link-up play with Soler, Hodgson and Ernsdoerfer was a feature. Soler broke through in the 69th minute and should have put Monash out of its misery but Grantham did well to get a touch and send the ball out for a corner. A cheeky Yanez backheel in the 73rd minute sent the impressive Kevin Brown scooting down the left and his cross to the edge of the box was met by a superb diving header from Soler and Grantham was at full stretch as he parried. In the 80th minute Soler again broke clear into a one-on-one with Grantham only to shoot wide of the far post when he could have taken another touch. While Pines were good value for the three points no-one is getting carried away at Monterey Reserve with success against one of the poorer sides in the league.

Pines gaffer Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor used a different formation for this match with Bradbury and Hodgson up front and Ernsdoerfer freed up to play in behind them. “You could see the confidence of the players rise during the course of the game,” said Taylor. “I thought we were okay in the first half but lacked penetration however we trialled a new system on the Tuesday and Thursday and players were still adapting to it. “The win was important though to kickstart our season, very important.” Daniel Mota, Connor McAndrews and Alex Bevacqua were unavailable but will come into contention for this weekend’s away fixture against Brighton. In State 1 news Mornington defender Josh Valadon has had his suspension for being sent off against Casey Comets reduced from five to three matches. Comets midfielder Brodie Paterson was suspended for two years for his sending off in the same match. He was also directed to write a letter of apology to Mornington midfielder Sam Catherine. Paterson’s suspension starts after he completes a respect and responsibility course and should he wish to register to play after serving his suspension he must complete another respect and responsibility course. In State 4 news Seaford United is hosting a past members’ day for players and supporters at North Seaford Reserve on Saturday 4 May starting at 11.30am. The event is part of Seaford’s 50th anniversary celebrations and a past players’ match will take place before the reserves and seniors take on Keysborough.

Written By signs off from racing By Ben Triandafillou CHAMPION two-year-old colt and Group One winner, Written By, has been retired to Widden Stud in the Hunter Valley on Monday 15 April. Trained by Mornington-based racehorse trainer Grahame Begg and raced by Hall of Fame trainer, and Grahame’s father, Neville Begg, the speedy son of Written Tycoon has been key to Grahame’s successful return to the training ranks. The former Sydney-based trainer of 25 years spent more than three years out of the game before returning and landing his first Group One victory back with Written By in the 2018 Blue Diamond Stakes (1200m). “He was the catalyst for us to kick off again,” Begg said. The homebred colt kicked off his career in perfect fashion winning his first four starts in succession highlighted by his dominant two and a half-length victory of the Blue Diamond Stakes. Sent to Sydney for the Golden Slipper, Written By was an easy winner of the Group Two ATC Pago Pago Stakes (1200m) and was then the first colt home in the Golden Slipper behind Estijaab, Oohood and Sunlight. The homebred colt went on to run some great races in his three-year-old season including a fourth placing in the Group One Coolmore Stud Stakes where he finished one and a half lengths off the victor, Sunlight. Having trained Written By’s sire, Written Tycoon, and raced his mother Yau Chin, Begg said there was always something a little bit special about

racing the colt. “There was a lot of synergy there,” he said. “He was pretty straight forward as far as soundness goes, he was just a full on two-year-old – he just got up and ran.”
“I would have liked his three-yearold runs to be a little bit better but in saying that he was beaten just under two-lengths in the Coolmore. Then in the Lightning Stakes he only got beaten about two lengths in that, so he really has been a very, very good
horse.” But for his career on the racetrack, Begg said it felt like the right time to retire his star colt. “If we waited another 12 months, he’d be four rising five and for us it was a good time for him to head to

The two year sponsorship deal reinforces Monash’s commitment to supporting and building relationships in the community. The club’s main oval will be renamed the ‘Monash University Oval’, while the university’s logo will be emblazoned on all match day footballs, hundreds of training balls and signage on the two home ground ovals. “The community sponsorship with Mount Martha Junior Football Club enables us to become more involved with the local community in the Peninsula region,” Professor David Copolov AO, Monash University’s Pro Vice-Chancellor, Major Campuses and Student Engagement said. “We are building strong relationships at a grass roots level, encouraging the development of our students’ skills by allowing them the opportunity to engage personally with members of the club, as well as helping to promote higher education aspirations and active lifestyles among young people and their families”. The sponsorship deal will create opportunities for Monash University students to practise their skills such as first aid and defibrillator demonstrations and training during selected home game days. MMJFC and Monash University will also develop a linked online presence, ANZAC Day Guernsey naming rights and clubroom signage. Mr James Barrett, President of Mount Martha Junior Football Club (MMJFC) welcomes the deal and is
excited to be working with Monash. “Monash University has a great reputation and I’m so pleased to be able to help drive awareness of the university throughout our club,” Mr Barrett said. “We have over 400 players with 21 teams male, female and mixed
and are growing every year.” “The sponsorship also means the Monash students can come along on a game day or training and help educate our players’ families on first aid and physical preparation.” “Junior football is a very active sport and good first aid skills are
very useful to have.” The MMJFC sponsorship deal also complements Monash’s other community development sponsorship with South Metro Junior Football Club in Melbourne that is now in the first year of a renewed two-year partnership.
Sponsorship win: Front row L -R: Samson (U9 Boys), Micky (U10 Boys), Chloe (U13 Girls), Charlotte (U11 Girls). Back row L-R: Emily (U13 Girls), Coen (U16 Boys), James Barrett (Mt Martha Junior Football Club President), Professor David Copolov (Pro Vice-Chancellor, Major Campuses and Student Engagement, Monash University), Noah (U16 Boys), Ben (U15 Boys).

Real recommendations from real people “Wow. The care and love received at Village Glen Mornington was amazing. I cannot speak more highly of the staff. Mum’s care was nothing more than exceptional and I thank Village Glen for giving us our mum back. Village Glen should be used as a template for how nursing homes should be run.” “I would sincerely like to give praise and thanks to all the staff that I have encountered. Everyone has made my visits to see my mum at Village Glen Mornington a regular occurrence and one that I look forward to everyday. My visits to Village Glen are sometimes the highlight of my day. I know my mum is in a very special and kind place, she is so well cared for. Thank you to all of you, you all deserve commendation from your superiors.”
“My husband entered Village Glen Aged Care Mornington in Memory Support, late September 2018 and I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for the fantastic care he has received. All areas of your facility are of a high standard and the carers are very efficient and always willing to assist. The food is of high quality and plentiful, the carers are always willing to make cups of tea or coffee whenever required and will help you in any way they can.”
The Village Glen Aged Care Mornington team, making our elder Australians and their families proud. 827-829 Nepean Highway, Mornington VIC 3931 1300 VILL GLEN (1300 8455 4536)
