The life of Eve, one breath at a time Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A BABY girl from Mt Martha is suffering from a one in a million genetic condition affecting her lungs and heart which means she must breathe through a tube. Since birth, four-and-a-half-monthold Eve has been unable to breathe without her oxygen bottle. First-time parents Georgie and Shaun Doherty spent the first two months of Eve’s life in the newborn intensive care unit at the Royal Children’s Hospital while doctors scrambled to find out what was wrong. Eve was eventually diagnosed with interstitial lung disease (chILD) and severe pulmonary hypertension (PHA). The condition chILD in newborns is said to be extremely rare, with a diagnosed three cases a million. There is no known cure. The couple has launched a GoFundMe campaign to help pay for Eve’s ongoing medical expenses, such as portable oxygen tanks, medications and specialist appointments. Up until Thursday night they had raised $15,200 towards a $25,000 target, but the future costs the family faces are inestimable. Ms Doherty said she and Eve had been back to the RCH three times for treatment since Eve’s discharge 10 weeks ago. “It’s tricky to predict the future, but Eve’s outcomes will be unknown until she is at least two,” she said. “It’s all really new research as there are only a handful of cases like this worldwide. We’ve only read two case studies, both in the US, and over the past 20 years there have only been 21 case studies.” Eve’s genetic sequence is said to be unique. Ms Doherty said some of the affected infants do not survive, but others appear to grow out of the condition. “Eve’s lungs are still growing and at age two she is expected to be strong enough to withstand more extensive treatment. For example, similar cases have received heart and lung transplants, but these are enormously complex.”

Uncertain future: Georgie Doherty and daughter Eve safe at home in Mt Martha. Picture: Yanni

Ms Doherty said there was “no significant data on newborns and not really any upside”. Eve was able to “declare herself”” and signal acceptance of her various treatments or not. A worrying sign was an increase in the volume of oxygen Eve was breath-

Priest’s departure rocks parish Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

Pictures: Yanni

Sunny days a welcome return to jumpers at The Pillars AT the first sign of last week’s hot weather daredevil cliff jumpers were back at The Pillars. The fence erected by Mornington Peninsula Shire last year to stop public access to Mt Martha’s famous natural attraction was dismantled months

ago, but cold water and cloudy skies provided their own disincentive. But now, even with tougher parking regulations and the ongoing alcohol ban, The Pillars is back in vogue. On Wednesday night there were seven jet skis parked near the base of the

cliff and plenty of jumpers scrambling in and out of the clear waters. On Thursday, even as shire workers installed treated pine barriers and new signs, groups of youngsters were making their way along the Esplanade to The Pillars. Keith Platt

PARISHIONERS of St Macartans in Mornington are said to be reeling after the resignation of Fr Minh Tran in mid-October. The shock departure caught many by surprise with a notice in the parish bulletin saying an email was being sent to the Archdiocese “requesting an explanation as to the reasons for Father’s resignation”. The bulletin also said the resignation had “caused many of us to feel a range of emotions”. A letter to parishioners from Vicar General Joe Caddy on 17 October stated that “while Fr Minh is supported by many people in the parish there have also been a number of complaints over a period of time”. “None of the complaints are of a sexual or criminal nature, however, they are of a kind that are serious enough to warrant further investigation. “The Archdiocese and the Society of Jesus have determined that Fr Minh’s style of leadership has generated unnecessary division and that his role as parish priest is no longer tenable and so have accepted his resignation.” The Australian newspaper last week reported that bullying and harassment

Father Minh Tran

claims are believed to be being investigated by the church. The paper said Fr Minh had been barred from going within 30 metres of a woman who performed work for the parish who had complained about his behaviour. The rule would apply except when he was serving her communion. The archdiocese said it would appoint a new parish priest as soon as possible. “In the interim, we will ensure the maintenance of masses in the parish.’’ Fr Minh could not be contacted for comment.

BILL Philip realised every golfers’ dream of a hole-in-one earlier this month but admits he took a long time to achieve the honour – 91 years. “It was my first hole-in-one … and the last,” quipped the Mornington resident who has a 36 handicap and has been playing 70 years. Mr Philip and regular partner Brian Randall had teed off on the Peninsula Golf Club’s south course par-3 third hole of 145 metres when he achieved the “ace”. Sadly, he didn’t see the ball actually drop in. “We walked up but I couldn’t find the ball and was looking for it over the back of the green when Brian [who’s only 88 years old] said: ‘Oh, you’d better look in the hole!’ “It was a thrill of course. I’m not a good golfer so it must have been a fluke.” Son Andrew Philip says he did some “extensive Google research” and found only one other “senior’s” hole-in-one in Australia – in Melbourne last year. “However, that one was a woman only 90

years old who only drove the ball 97 metres,” Andrew said. “While it was very impressive it was not the record that Bill quietly achieved three weeks ago.” Andrew said his father was a “humble person who has made many contributions to the communities he has been associated with over his 91 years – and he never toots his own horn! “His response to my mother, Mary Lou Philip, when she asked how his game went that day was: “I didn't play that well overall ... but oh yes I did get a hole-in-one on the third”. “His is the typical dry wit of a humble man.” To celebrate his “ace” Mr Philip, who is also a member of the famed Royal Melbourne Golf Club, and Mr Randall shouted the bar whiskeys when they finished. “Golf is a fantastic game,” he said. “The handicap system means you can play with some really good players off even single-figure handicaps and still be competitive.” Stephen Taylor

Fast food fee rises hard to swallow Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au FEE hikes of 70 per cent for annual food registrations are being described as outrageous by a Peninsula Link fast food restaurateur. Barton Smith, who runs two Oporto outlets at the BP service stations on Peninsula Link, Baxter, said Mornington Peninsula Shire Council had demanded $650 for each of his food outlets, up from $388 each last year. “How does the council explain such a large increase?” Mr Smith, who has asked the Ombudsman investigate, said. “This is a rise of 69.71 per cent and must be a mistake or clearly there are grounds for this massive rise. “I have received no explanation or justification as my businesses have not been reassessed and remain Class 2 food outlets. “Inflation is averaging well under two per cent and, if this isn’t an error, then the council’s hefty price increase is outrageous.” “The Reserve Bank is trying to stimulate the economy and yet the shire is trying to strangle us,” he said. “We are a small business employing locals and to increase our fees just because they can, to cover some hole in their revenue, doesn’t pass the pub test. We are being crunched.” Mr Smith said he was prepared to pay a “reasonable increase” of about $400 a store. “This is blatant price gouging and an excessive tax increase on small business. It impacts all food outlets,

coffee shops and cafes. If [the council] was a company it would be fined by the ACCC.” The shire’s environment protection manager John Rankine defended the fee rises.

“The shire undertakes intensive assessments of food businesses in accordance with the Department of Health and Human Services’ best practice guidelines for food safety assessments,” he said.

“This is a requirement under the Food Act and has been in place for many years. [It] ensures the food served to customers is safe to eat. “Increases in the extent of the assessments and the obligations on the shire

have increased the cost of the program [and] this has been reflected in the increases in registration fees.” Mr Rankine said allergen awareness was an example of the increased requirements. “There has been a notable increase in the number of food complaints arising from allergic reactions to food,” he said. The basis of the fee is to provide the service, he said. This includes: assessment of the food premises, awareness and education programs such as the shire’s Best Bites program and allergen awareness, proactive testing of food quality and the investigation of complaints into food quality. “Benchmarking against other municipalities has shown the shire’s fees are on the lower end of the scale in comparison,” Mr Rankine said. The shire is already under fire from the Australian Taxpayers’ Alliance for attempting to ban single use plastic bags (“Taxpayer group opposes plastic bag ban” The News 22/10/19). The group says the ban would add to costs of small grocers who would be forced to buy reinforced bags – or totes. “They already have it hard enough competing with Coles and Woolworths,” the ATA’s Emilie Dye said.

Liberals wary of making preselection comment

It's time to pack your picnic!

COOLART COMMUNITY PICNIC DAY

Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au SENIOR Liberals are reportedly seeking to overturn a decision by their own federal seats committee that would require sitting MPs to face preselection. If the committee’s decision remains on the party’s books, Flinders MP Greg Hunt, a Cabinet minister, could face a challenge early next year from within his own party’s ranks. The committee recommended nominations for all Liberal-held seats open on 15 January next year, with party members voting in February or March and candidates selected by October. However, neither the chairman of that committee, Russell Joseph - who last November failed to win the former Liberal state seat of Nepean for the Liberals - or Mr Hunt would comment on the preselection decision. Mr Joseph told The News he was “the last person to start back grounding the media, much as I’d like to give you a great story”. He said that if he made a comment “all of a sudden it would be game on”, when the report recommending opening up preselections was “just a normal party role” of the committee “and not for the pages of a newspaper”. A report in The Age on Saturday 2 October said the report’s recommendations had “blindsided” the Prime Minister Scott Morrison and several federal Victorian ministers. The report stated that the party’s federal director Andrew Hirst would try to get the proposal overturned. Mr Hunt, who has held Flinders since 2001, was asked several times by The News to comment

specifically on the committee’s decision. However, his “media contact” Mathew Langdon, said a spokesperson for Mr Hunt could be quoted as saying: "The minister was honoured to have been nominated by the Liberal Party and elected by local residents as the Member for Flinders, as well as continuing in his role as Minister for Health in the Morrison government. “Matters relating to the timing of preselections are for the administration of the Liberal Party of Victoria to determine. “The minister's focus is on delivering projects announced in election such as upgrades to Jetty Road, a National Centre for Coasts, Environment and Climate at Point Nepean and improved mental health services on the Mornington Peninsula." The committee’s decision follows the forced resignations of six Victorian Liberal candidates in the lad-up to the May federal election for their right wing views and for failing to meet eligibility requirements under Section 44 of the Australian Constitution. On a two-party preferred basis, Mr Hunt retained Flinders with nearly 56 per cent of the vote despite a 1.37 per cent swing against him. The result led to the Australian Electoral Commission classifying Flinders as being a marginal seat (“Strong win for Hunt in ‘marginal’ Flinders” The News 18/6/19). Mr Hunt’s primary vote was down by 3.78 per cent, but much of this is likely to have been the result of former Liberal MP, Julia banks, standing as an independent. Primary votes were also down for Labor ‘s Joshua Sinclair (-2.8%) and the Greens (-4.18%) while Ms banks attracted 13.79 per cent of primary votes.

With Stephen Taylor

Backyard fight ends with stabbing and a punch SOMERVILLE detectives were last week investigating an alleged stabbing at Rosebud in which two offenders jumped a fence into the backyard of a house near the corner of Point Nepean and Boneo roads where they were confronted by two other men, 9pm, Thursday 24 October. In the ensuing struggle one of the victims received cuts to his hand from an unknown item – possibly a knife – while the other was punched in the face. Detective Acting Sergeant Peter Drake, of Somerville CIU, said the two offenders then ran to a car and were driven away. The victims are aged 51 and 52. The man who was stabbed later attended Rosebud Hospital for treatment.

on Thursday. The man was remanded in custody and the woman bailed. They will both reappear at the same court at a later date. Detective Drake said police would allege the pair seriously assaulted a man with a hammer at Rosebud on 11 October. The man received head injuries and is being treated at Frankston Hospital. He said the arson charges related to the burning of a stolen car at Rosebud. Detective Drake said the arrests formed part of Operation Night Eagle which targeted persons of interest.

Rosebud police are looking for the man, pictured, who took the new Apple iPhone 11 valued at $1720 which was still in its box, and drove off in a white Toyota Camry. The victim could not make out the registration number. The man is described a Caucasian, dark hair, dark eyes, and wearing a distinctive top. Anyone with information is asked to call Senior Constable Leanne Marshall at Rosebud Police 5986 0444 or Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

‘Erratic’ drivers charged A ROSEBUD pair whose car was reported driving erratically last week later faced Frankston Magistrates’ Court charged with a range of offences. Detective Acting Sergeant Peter Drake, of Somerville CIU, said witnesses concerned about the car called police, 7pm, Wednesday 23 October. Police intercepted the car in Rosebud and charged a man, 23, with assault intentionally causing injury, arson, theft of a motor car, evading police and possessing a drug of dependence. The car had been fitted with false number plates. A woman, 29, has been charged with assault intentionally causing serious injury and evading police. The pairHillview faced Frankston Quarries Magistrates’ AD.pdf 1 Court 18/10/19

Slow learner SOMERVILLE Highway Patrol intercepted a 38-year-old Rye man driving without headlights or taillights along Frankston-Dandenong Road, Seaford, 2am, Saturday 19 October. The man was driving the same blue Commodore sedan issued with a defect notice in August still with the same wiring extending from the battery up through the bonnet and in through the window to provide a charging port for his phone. The man returned a positive drug test and his car was found to have suspended registration due to his not complying with the previous defect notice. He allegedly told police he was driving to Seymour to drop off the motorbike on his trailer. The man was released pending summons for drug driving, unregistered vehicle and trailer, unsafe vehicle, no headlights at night and insecure load in the trailer. Senior Constable Greg Wolfe said a large four-wheel-drive bull bar had been thrown on top of his load to keep it weighted down.

Up for the challenge Hold the phone

Phone snatched A MAN who answered an advertisement to buy a mobile phone from a Facebook Marketplace page snatched it from the seller, ran to a waiting car and 2:30 pm drove off, Sunday 22 September.

MORNINGTON police are keen to identify a woman after a mobile phone went missing from a shop last week. The phone, belonging to a staffer, was lost on Thursday 17 October. Police believe that the woman (pictured) can assist with their inquiries. She is Caucasian with dark hair and medium build. Anyone with information is urged to contact Mornington Police 5970 4900 or Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at crimestoppersvic.com.au

IT’S 25 years since council amalgamations throughout Victoria, which led to formation of a “super shire” on the Mornington Peninsula. The amalgamation of 1994 saw the peninsula run by three state government-appointed commissioners instead of elected councillors, who were effectively sacked by the Kennett Liberal government. The commissioners’ job was to create one council where there had been three: Flinders, Mornington and Hastings. In the lead-up to amalgamation, individual councils fought turf wars, staking their claim (through submissions to the government) to land outside their municipal boundaries. But the government stood firm on wanting one municipality for the peninsula. Surrounded by water on three sides, the only disputed boundary was in the north, where the former shires of Mornington and Hastings met the boundaries of Frankston in the west and the then City of Cranbourne in the east. Frankston, which had long described itself as the gateway to the Mornington Peninsula rather than being a part of the peninsula, was forced to give up parts of Mt Eliza and Baxter. However, it too was enlarged by being given land north of Carrum Downs. The amalgamation process was not

Board’s history a mystery IT was a random find, but one has sparked the interest of Neil Jansen. The hollow, yellow surfboard stood out at the recycling centre adjoining the Mornington waste transfer station and Mr Jansen decided it could be useful. However, before trying out or even given it a new paint job he decided to try and track down its history. “The only other boards I've seen constructed like this were 18 foot craft from my lifesaver days in South

Africa in the 1960s,” he said. Hollow plywood surfboards were made and ridden in the 1930s, with American Tom Blake acknowledged as the main innovator. Later nicknamed cigar boxes, the boards were much lighter than the solid finless boards of the time. Anyone who can help shed light on the history of Neil Jansen’s “find” can contact him by emailing: neilbenjaminjansen@gmail.com Keith Platt

Annual General Meeting & Community Forum

shire’ marks first 25 years

Please join us at our Annual General Meeting and Community Forum The 2019 AGM and Community Forum is an opportunity for everyone to provide feedback on our services and identify priorities for change.

always easy. Each of the peninsula’s three shires had its own staff, which meant positions being occupied by three people (even though some had different titles). Finding jobs for three CEOs was a priority. Forcing three into one was only achieved through numerous staff meetings, seminars and retraining programs. Some staff had difficulty adapting to the new culture and opted to take redundancies, while others suddenly found themselves lower in the pecking order. The generous superannuation scheme left the new super shire with a debt that took years to effectively manage. The amalgamation, or restructuring of local government, saw semi-autonomous business units set up within the shire and the introduction of compulsory competitive tendering. The exit of commissioners and the reintroduction of council elections in 1997 signalled the end of a tumultuous time in Victorian local government.

The number of councils had been reduced from 210 to 79, and newly elected councillors were paid. Two weeks ago (Thursday 17 October), the shire invited former shire presidents and past peninsula mayors to Mornington to mark the 25th anniversary of amalgamation of the three former peninsula shires. Among those attending the function at the Mornington council chamber were Bill Goodrem and Brian Stahl, former shire presidents who went on to become mayors of the newly-created municipality. The current mayor Cr David Gill was shire president of the former Shire of Mornington in 1984-85. They joined former Flinders shire president Keith Holmes, former Hastings shire president Sue Wilding and former Mornington shire presidents David McMillan and Paul Kelly. The gathering of about 30 retired community leaders also included former mayors Judith Graley, Tim Rodgers and David Renouf. “It was terrific to catch up with so many

people passionate about their community,” Cr Gill said. “The anniversary was an opportunity to reunite and recognise an old era of councillors who represented their community on a volunteer basis. Amalgamation brought in a board of directors model and councillors receiving a stipend for their services. “There was a fair degree of sadness and regret at the closure of the old shire councils, and the long period of no elected representatives forced on communities by the state government at the time. “Our shire now serves a resident population of more than 166,000. We provide more than 500 services to the community, have 1702 kilometres of roads, maintain 227 community buildings and care for 641 areas of public open space and much more.” Cr Gill said the anniversary was a good opportunity to take stock of what had been achieved so far and discuss the shire’s direction for the next 25 years “with so much wisdom in the room”.

Our Board, senior staff and community members will attend, as we celebrate the achievements of the last year, invite feedback, comments and suggestions and look ahead to our exciting future. WHEN: Tuesday, 12 November 2019 TIME: 1.45pm for a 2.00pm start The meeting will conclude at 3.30pm, followed by refreshments WHERE: Gunnamatta Room, Mornington Racecourse 320 Racecourse Road, Mornington FOR MORE INFORMATION please call Jenni on 03 9788 1501 or email corporate.relations@phcn.vic.gov.au

Morning tea honours awards winners A MORNING tea to honour Mornington Peninsula Shire’s previous Australia Day Awards Citizens of the Year was held at the Rosebud offices on Friday 25 October. The mayor Cr David Gill hosted the event to “recognise and celebrate the recipients’ significant contributions to the enrichment, improvement and advancement of the Mornington Peninsula community”. Special guest was the shire’s Citizen of the Year Josie Jones, who was last week awarded the 2020 Victoria Local Hero award at a ceremony at Government House. She was among about 20 previous winners representing all award categories at the event. A staunch environmental and litter prevention advocate, Ms Jones starts each morning by collecting rubbish on the beach. Since 2006 the

single mum has volunteered 10,000 hours to collect 5.3 tonnes of rubbish from the shoreline. Ms Jones, 46, devotes “every spare moment” to her cause by engaging the community, public speaking, social media, and consulting with local government, community groups, corporations, schools and businesses. Her work inspires others to care for the environment. The graphic designer’s The Only Butt campaign has helped reduce cigarette litter on streets. Her outstanding work has received recognition through awards, including the Dame Phyllis Frost Award in 2016 and Litter Prevention prize from Keep Victoria Beautiful 2017. Her commitment has made her a much-admired role model.

Former gambler fights against pokies Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A SOMERVILLE woman honoured at last week’s Victorian Senior of the Year awards says state governments and large corporations must learn to wean themselves off relying on gambling revenues. Anna Bardsley received the Healthy and Active Living Award from the Governor Linda Dessau for her work in helping others beat their own gambling addictions since winning her own self-destructive battle several years ago. The awards are part of the month-long Victorian Seniors Festival and aim to celebrate older Victorians who support and inspire others through their volunteer work and efforts in their communities. After rising above her own troubles Ms Bardsley has become an advocate for addiction issues as a participant and leader in the Three Sides of the Coin project, as a Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation Lived Experience committee member, and as a speaker and trainer at ReSpin Speakers Bureau. “I was a ‘problem gambler’ from the early 1990s and I lost 10 years of my life to the pokies,” she said. “But I don’t like to use that term because when I emerged into recovery I began to understand that the language around gambling made it worse. “It was impossible for me to ask for help because I was the problem.” Her descent into gambling addiction began innocently when she and a group of friends started visiting hotels to play the pokies on nights out. “We’d spend $20 and have a drink and dinner and it seemed harmless and I had no problem

walking away,” she said. Family tragedies and a disintegrating marriage led to arguments with her former husband and one cold, wet night she got in her car and sought refuge in a hotel – playing the pokies. “I’d never been in a pub on my own before but, because I’d been there with friends I knew what to do; it was safe for women and it was a way to pass the time.” The pokies machines worked their magic, did what they were designed to do and “took me to another place” and, before long, Ms Bardsley was hooked. “I began making excuses to go more often,” she said. “I was lying to myself, my family, I lost my

self-esteem – it was appalling. I would try to stop and that would last a few days before I was back there. “It has taken years to retrain my brain to want to get out of that dark place. They are years I will never get back.” Ms Bardsley credits counselling and a writing workshop with Arnold Zabel in 2013 for giving her an insight into her plight that was not apparent to her before. She put herself back in the place of the gambler she had been and felt the loneliness and the futility. “I realised I was addicted to the machines and knew I had to stop. I wrote a chapter to a book of anthologies the group was writing called

Shame. I originally didn’t want to do it; it was really hard, but I had developed a sense of trust in the group and had to face myself. I recognised that the shame was not on the gambler but on the governments and the corporations who prey on the gamblers.” Shame has gone on to be a dramatised reading at the Melbourne Writers’ Festival as part of the Three Sides of the Coin project and is recognised as a powerful tool for recovery and education. Going full circle, Ms Bardsley accompanied shareholder activist Stephen Mayne and advocate for gambling reform’s Tim Costello to the October 2017 annual meeting of Crown Casino where she fronted former Crown chairman James Packer on the evils of gambling. “He was quite taken aback but handled it well, despite saying: ‘I am really sorry for your sad life’. “He then apologised for being patronising.” She said she spoke out because “tens of thousands of others can’t speak”. “[Gambling] is a shameful thing and I want to hold the industry to account.” Ms Bardley said local government was trying hard to curb the allure of the pokies “because it sees the pain first hand,” she said. Mornington Peninsula Shire has joined the national group Alliance for Gambling Reform. Local government is in a unique position because it doesn’t earn an income from pokies and so can put pressure on the state government to curb them, she said. Ordinary people opposed to the pokies should lobby their local members of parliament to put pressure on the industry, she said. “Incrementally we can get rid of pokies.”

Eagle Ridge Golf Course

TIME hasn’t dampened the enthusiasm of Mornington war veteran Alan Moore. He’s just been honoured with the Victorian Senior Achiever Award at the ripe old age of 98. Mr Moore, of Benetas Corowa Court Aged Care, was presented with his award at Government House last week for his outstanding community contribution over 40 years of voluntary service to the care provider. Four generations of family joined Mr Moore for the occasion, including his two daughters and several grandchildren. “It’s a great privilege to receive this prestigious award by the Victorian GovernorGeneral and I think I may just be the most senior here,” Mr Moore said. A Kokoda Track survivor from the 39 Battalion, Mr Moore spent a large part of his life presenting at schools across Victoria on his experiences during the war, and reinforcing his message of peace and collaboration. His commitment to the community hasn’t wavered with age: since 1980 he’s been an active Rotary member and spent 40 years volunteering for Benetas. “The most important lesson of all my volunteering and community work is to just get

along with each other and learn to better understand one another,” he said. “I’ve sat on many committees and volunteered for many years, and the inability of people to truly understand those they work with – and admit it when they don’t – is one of the biggest challenges many of us face.” After the event, Benetas CEO Sandra Hills OAM said Mr Moore had invested 40 years of his life on the betterment of Corowa Court Aged Care and its residents. “He has not only served as an integral member on the committee and been an active volunteer at the Anglicare Mt Eliza Op Shop, but at 98 he is now also a valued resident at Corowa Court. “We are incredibly grateful to Alan for his outstanding contribution to the lives of older Victorians on the Mornington Peninsula and are honoured to have such a dedicated volunteer with Benetas.” Asked how he’d celebrate his upcoming 99th birthday, Mr Moore said he’d be doing very little. “I told my grandson we’d be holding out for my 100th birthday in 13 months by inviting 100 guests and holding a big party.” Mr Moore said he hoped to continue to live an active life sharing the message that we “all just need to get along”.

ON THE COVER

HAMPTONS STYLE HOME READY FOR YOU TO MOVE IN AND ENJOY ABSOLUTELY brand new living awaits lucky new owners with this enormous country homestead, located just minutes drive from Hastings or Bittern. Available with vacant possession, the home is set on a 1.34 hectare block, in a relatively new rural-residential estate, with a shared driveway from the main road serving this and several neighbouring properties. The long drive comes to a double garage under the roof line of the home which in total measures an impressive 400 square metres. A fantastic formal entry with high pitched ceiling creates a fabulous first impression with plenty of space and light on offer, and to the right is an elegant formal lounge with richly carpeted floors. Across the hall is the master bedroom which boasts a walk-in robe and a large ensuite that features an eye-catching full length mirror above twin vanities. The wide hallway continues past a separate study and a guest bedroom that also has an ensuite and walk-in robe; with two more bedrooms zoned to the south wing sharing a full main bathroom plus powder room. Size is certainly a defining characteristic with this property and for the family seeking that much needed space both inside and out this property absolutely delivers with an enormous open plan zone and an expansive timber deck that will cater to the biggest family functions with ease. Nestled into the space is a wonderful kitchen with sleek black splashbacks and a wealth of cupboards and drawers. Stainless-steel appliances include a dishwasher and a 900-millimetre oven with gas cooktop, and adjoining the laundry is a good-sized pantry. From a birds eye view the block is largely undeveloped which would provide enthusiastic green thumbs the opportunity to create their own garden wonderland perhaps incorporating the lovely ornamental dam in the north corner.n

Homeless should be put before freeway sculptures While government bodies do not seem to be taking responsibility for the homeless, they are able to take responsibility for large art sculptures on the Mornington Peninsula Freeway. I wonder how much money is spent so we can all enjoy these marvellous creations as we speed along the freeway. I’m sure the homeless are grateful for this wonderful service, but would probably agree with me that the money spent would be more useful put to humanitarian use. So does it matter who is responsible? We all are, these are our fellow human beings and if a local council has enough money to buy giant chrome gnomes, maybe it can consider putting some money aside to help its citizens. In Canada, local councils are taking responsibility and building tiny homes for the homeless. Deborah Bennett, Hastings

Misleading name When you research the Australian Taxpayers Alliance (ATPA) which opposes the ban on plastic bags, you find that it is the parent organisation of Menzies House, a website for “conservative, centre-right and libertarian thinkers and activists” (“Taxpayer group opposes plastic bag ban” The News 22/10/19). I would be quite suspect about the agenda it has regarding banning plastic bags. My thought is that they should be banned and outlets should not be able to sell plastic bags. Rather, they should have to sell reusable non-plastic bags. One of the web domains registered by the ATPA is Reclaimaustralia.com.au (a far-right Australian nationalist protest group which is associated with nationalist and neo-Nazi hate groups). Menzies House in turn has founded other short-term websites, which it describes as “our sister sites”, including “Support Bolt”. The ATPA opposed the policy of introducing plain packaging for cigarette packets, opposed an increase in foreign aid from Australia, claiming that Ausaid money is used to support terrorist groups. Its “The ABC Is out of control” campaign pushed for reform of Australia’s public broadcaster, the ABC. The ATPA is just another misleading acronym for another ultra right wing group undermining our democracy under the guise of working for us all. Wish I had more words at my disposal to really out these guys and who the represent and get funding from (Koch Brothers, USA) Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Stop listening After coming across an article about a group of anti-environmental right wingers, asking to reverse the commendable stance by Mornington Peninsula Shire, of a meaningful ban on plastic products affecting our environment, I did a little research and found out that these concerned citizens have a very questionable history when it comes to the environment (“Taxpayer group opposes plastic bag ban” The News 22/10/19). Members of this ultra conservative group worship Mamon and let nothing get in the way of making a buck at the expense of every other

LOVE Flower has replaced the gnome sculpture (Reflective Lullaby) near the Cranbourne Road, Frankston overpass on Peninsula Link. The latest instalment of the $250,000 Southern Way McClelland biennial sculpture commission was created by artist John Meade, with Emily Karanikolopolous. The series alternates every two years between sites at Skye Road and Cranbourne Road and will result in 14 commissions over 25 years to 2037. After four years on public display the commissions become part of McClelland’s permanent sculpture collection in its eight-hectare sculpture park in Langwarrin.

citizen of the world. Their motto seems to be we want to do whatever we want without regard to anyone else. I don’t think we should listen to this lot when the environment is drowning in plastic rubbish from one pole to the other. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Removing ‘weeds’ Unfortunately, Patricia Parkinson has misunderstood the reasons for the removal of a substantial number of Pinus radiata and a Cypress macrocarpa along Browns Road by a local Landcare Group (“Landcare’s loss” Letters 8/10/19). Certainly, the pines and Cypress are trees and living photosynthesising plants; but they are also killers. Pinus radiata proliferate and dominate wherever they grow. They suppress and ultimately kill indigenous species such as eucalypts and understory plants which provide habitat and food for indigenous fauna such as koalas, possums, sugar-gliders, antechinus, bats, birds and insects which make up the biodiversity of this part of the Mornington Peninsula. Rather than increasing biodiversity, pines and Cypress markedly reduce biodiversity. As a gardener I would remove such infestations of nettles, thistles and ragwort which threatened the health of plants and vegetables in the garden; equally, as someone who cares about maintaining a biodiverse ecosystem including the indigenous animals, birds and insects which rely on it, I recognise the need to remove “weeds” which threaten its survival. So please don’t castigate Landcare when its members have the courage to take a tough decision to remove some large state-declared weeds in order to protect a biodiverse ecosystem where indigenous plants and animals can thrive. By protecting and re-establishing indigenous trees, shrubs and ground-cover species they will do more for the long-term survival of the planet than those who want to let the weeds take over. Bernie Schedvin, Main Ridge

Refugee tragedy Tragically, another refugee has died while in “Australia’s care”. The Australian Government needs to be held accountable by the International Court of Justice. I believe the government has blood on its hands and should resign. The whole offshore detention policy, in my opinion, is reprehensible and should end now. Shame, shame. Denise Hassett, Mt Martha

Time for Tyrone Owen Cain was born in 1798, in County Tyrone, Ireland. He migrated to Australia with his wife, Sarah, in the 1840s. Three children were born before arriving in Australia and another four were born here. Arriving on the Mornington Peninsula about 1842 they settled on a property (350 acres) bounded by Canterbury Jetty, Melbourne and Whitecliffs roads (approximately).

At the end of Flinders Street, their limestone homestead “Tyrone” is still standing. In nearby Sarazen Street Owen had his own lime kiln. Owen’s sons worked around “Tyrone” and in time John and James secured more land which saw the Cain family own most of the land bounded by St Johns Wood, Melbourne and Whitecliffs Roads. Joe Cain’s house is situated in Point Nepean Road between Murray Street and Canterbury Jetty Road. Another Cain property is in Cain Road. Owen died in the family home “Tyrone” aged 99 in 1897. The foreshore area from Whitecliffs to Canterbury Jetty Road is often referred to as the Tyrone Beach. We have the Tyrone boat ramp, Tyrone beach car park and Tyrone foreshore reserve. I believe a number of streets nearby have been named after the Cain family. In more recent years, Nelson Street was renamed Tyrone Avenue. Mostly residential, this two kilometre stretch along Point Nepean Road has a rich history. With the preservation of the Cain properties, and the name Tyrone promoting the camping ground, one feels that this section of Rye bordering Whitecliffs to Canterbury Jetty Road and back to Melbourne Road might be complimented with a name change to Tyrone.

Pool’s costly delay Thank you Betty Preston for a historical record regarding the pool for the southern peninsula (“Ready for pool” Letters 16/10/19). I believe she was remiss in not also mentioning that some Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors were quite persistent that the pool be positioned on the Rosebud foreshore, despite being aware that such a proposal was not a coastal dependant activity and therefore in breach of Victoria’s Coastal Management Act. Council even paid for drilling works on the foreshore to identify and secure water table data and the necessary design alterations and costings for a pool. Due to certain councillors’ advocacy for the foreshore site, the shire lost out on a significant

federal grant for a regional pool. Frankston City Council applied and the result is P.A.R.C. Consequently we ratepayers are now responsible for the majority of the costs of this important project. I’m sure our federal MP can assist with confirming my latter statements regarding the “lost” federal grant, for the historical record. Jane Clarke, Rosebud

Learned opinions Clifford W Ellen reckons I present my opinions from a superior point of view (“That’s entertainment” Letters 23/10/19). I didn’t know it showed and, sometimes, my opinions are based on painstaking research and known facts. Occasionally I can reference my own lifetime’s technical expertise. And by the way, I did Caulfield Technical School and four others at night classes. Brian A Mitchelson, Mornington

Measuring polluters Don’t you just love spring, with the sun shining and the sheep wandering aimlessly through the Letters page of the The News. While it is easy to dismiss the usual ramblings of Cliff Ellen (who only criticises but can’t seem to form an opinion of his own) and Rupert Steiner (who would blindly follow the loopy left on any issue that is flavour of the month, such as Illegal boat arrivals (lost that one), the Adani coal mine (under construction) and now supporting super glueing climate changers blocking everyday Australians going about their business). The one that needs a comment though is the letter from Joe Lenzo (“Successful polluters” 22/10/19). He got off to a bad start with his assertion that Australia produces 1.5 per cent of the world’s emissions. Even a modicum of research would have given the figure of 1.3 per cent. As far as his assertion that Australia is a worse emitter than China, then let’s try a simple bar graph. There’s China looking like the Rialto on the left and there’s Australia looking like Bill Smith’s boat shed on the right. Remember 18 May guys, the majority had their say. Michael G Free, Mt Martha

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Seaford school to be proceeded with immediately Compiled by Cameron McCullough A DEPUTATION, introduced by the Hon. A. Downward, waited on the Minister of Education on Wednesday last. The school committee was represented by Cr. Armstrong and Messrs Klauer, Moffatt and H. J. McCulloch, while Messrs Hunter, Martin and Laing attended from the Progress Association. Cr Armstrong followed Mr Downward in making out a strong case for definite and prompt action, and all the other speakers ably supported. In reply the Minister said that instructions had been given to purchase Muntz’s site, and the school would be erected immediately negotiations were concluded. The deputationists warmly thanked the Minister for his decision to proceed with the building at once, as the school was an urgent necessity. *** MR J. McComb, having disposed of his property, “Pine Hill” Moorooduc is holding a clearing sale on Wednesday, 12th November, the auctioneers being The Gippsland and Northern Co-operative Selling and Insurance Co.

To avoid misunderstanding which it is found occasionally arises with advertisers, it has been decided to definitely announce the time of publication as Friday. Advertisers and contributors will therefore please note that the Standard is published every Friday evening and late advertisements cannot be taken after 12 noon on that day. *** THE Somerville St Andrew’s Ladies committee have organised a spring show to be held in the Horticultural Hall Somerville, on Friday 7th November. The show will be opened by Capt S. M. Bruce. M.H.R. at 7.30pm. The committee, with Mrs Geo. Shepherd as secretary, have arrangements well forward, numerous entries are expected for various awards to be offered for cookery, butter and eggs, vegetables, pot plants and cut flowers, hand needlework and schoolwork. On Saturday afternoon and evening a peace fair will be held. Mrs Chas. Murray is the President and Mrs Philbrick and J. S.

F.R.G.S., Home Mission Deputation will conduct both services at the Frankston Methodist Church on Sunday next. He will also lecture in the church on Wednesday evening next at 8pm on “The Burning Ship”. There will be no charge for admission, but a collection will be made for Home Missions. The lecture is full of thrilling incident, and it is to be hoped that the attendance will be large. *** EDWIN Carsin’s Comedy company will be touring the Peninsula starting at Crib Point, on Monday, November the 10th. Mr Carson has secured the rights for production of London’s latest live wire Topical Screamer “North East Lynne.” The farcical comedy is of four acts, and ten scenes, on the Somme and the “Rose of No Man’s Land” depicting realistic conditions which the boys were under while in action. The Comedy is claimed to be one of the funniest ever submitted and as the members have all been on active service a bumper attendance will have the opportunity of spending a night of mirth with this talented organization. *** A YOUTH named Jensen was arrested at Frankston this week by Senr Constable Bray on a charge of horse stealing. He appeared before Mr Lasslett J.P. on Thursday morning and was remanded. It is alleged that the accused annexed

a horse from the Dandenong district and sold it later for £5. *** AT last it seems likely that efforts to revive the Frankston Brass Band will prove successful. Mr C. Willox, who is a great enthusiast, has been negotiating with Mr Harry A. Blaskett who was bandmaster of one of the Military Bands in France, and is now a resident of Carrum Downs. Mr Blaskett possesses high credentials and is willing to assist in re-establishing the local band. A public meeting to consider the question has been convened for Wednesday evening next in the Mechanics’ Hall. It is to be hoped that the public will attend in large numbers and help the movement along. *** A MEETING of delegates to the Peninsula Cricket Association was held on Saturday evening last in the Hastings Hall. Mr Geo. Keast, Somerville (President), occupied the chair, and delegates were present from Frankston, Somerville, Tyabb, Hastings and French Island. Mr Austin, Frankston, was elected vice-president of the association, and acknowledged the honour done to him and the club be represented. A code of rules for the carrying out of a competition for premiership among the Peninsula clubs was arranged. It was decided that at the end of the competition the two leading clubs should play a final for the premiership, the original leaders having a right to demand another grand final if defeated. It was decided that all affiliation fees

must be paid before the play begins, and also players must be registered in the Association’s books before playing. Fixtures were arranged for the first round of play, Frankston having a bye on the first Saturday (Nov. 1st), and meeting Somerville on Frankston ground on 8th November. The President donated two trophies for batting and bowling averages respectively. It was decided that the winner of the former must have played in at least half the matches of the season, and that to win the bowling trophy a player must have delivered at least 50 overs. In view of the cost and scarcity of cricket balls, it was decided that varnished balls of quality and condition approved by both captains should be allowed in competition matches. *** NOTICE.

TIM FREEDMAN - WHITLAMS CLASSICS AND A FEW NEW SONGS gold albums in their repertoire. Tim’s solo performances are a mixture of charming cynicism and delicate piano, and have become as popular as his four-piece band shows. The Whitlams’ success has always been about the emotional core of his songs, and when the rock adornments are removed and the band left at home, that core is laid bare in the intimate atmosphere of a piano bar. Tim’s show will draw songs from across his entire career including “No Aphrodisiac”, “Blow Up the Pokies”, “Buy Now and Pay Later” and “Thank You (for loving me at my worst)”. The last few years have seen the band play their “Best of” with every state orchestra

around the country including seven nights with the Sydney Symphony at the Sydney Opera House. Their 1997 album, “Eternal Nightcap”, was recently voted No. 17 in the Hottest 100 Australian Albums of All Time on Triple J. In January 2019 The Whitlams were the house band on ABC’s ‘Australian of the Year’ telecast in which they mashed Baker Boys “Mr La Di Da Di” with their own hit “You Sound Like Louise Burdett”. More recently they completed a national tour playing their 1999 album “Love this City” which was given a four star review in the Sydney Morning Herald saying the album ”has held up as well as Freedman’s affecting tenor”.

Somerville chase down Red Hill, Seaford Tigers just get across line By Brodie Cowburn

PENINSULA

SOMERVILLE have chased down Red Hill to claim an impressive win in their first two day outing for the season. With a target of 194 to meet, Somerville started poorly when they lost an opener for a duck. Their other opener Jayde Herrick did better, scoring 35 runs to give his team a little bit of momentum. A strong middle order performance sealed the victory for Somerville, with each of their batsmen from number three to number seven contributing with scores of over 25. Somerville ended up securing victory with five wickets and five overs to spare. At Ditterich Reserve, Main Ridge chalked up an easy win over Pearcedale. Pearcedale were sent packing for just 87 on day one. And with Main Ridge starting day two at 1/59, the result seemed a sure thing before a ball was bowled. Batsman Michael Holmes made the day his own for Main Ridge, scoring 84 runs. His tally alone was almost enough to topple their opponents. Main Ridge ended up declaring at 2/185, easily claiming a first innings win. Pearcedale came in for a second innings and batted out the day, finish-

Mornington News

ing at 8/118. Pines took out a win over Moorooduc thanks to a stunning performance from Damien Lawrence. He scored 95 runs, including 8 fours and 6 sixes, to help his side chase down Moorooduc’s total of 179. A weather hampered two day contest between Heatherhill and Long Island ended in a draw.

DISTRICT

SEAFORD Tigers just scraped over the line in a thriller against Delacombe Park last weekend. Delacombe Park made sure the Tigers would have their work cut out for them on day two, setting them a tough target of 232 to chase down. The Tigers’ run chase started off in shaky fashion, and at 4/78 they needed a big push from their middle order to get back on track. David James stood up for the Tigers, putting together a brilliant innings of 86 to give the Tigers momentum. James hit 6 fours and 4 sixes during his impressive innings. Once his wicket fell the Tigers looked wobbly again, and at 9/186 with 47 runs to go to win looked as if they would fall short. A brilliant last wicket partnership saved the day for Seaford Tigers, and they ended up getting the win in the final over with just one wicket in hand.

29 October 2019

Despite a spirited showing by Mt Martha, Rosebud were able to defend their total of 253 runs. Mt Martha’s first three batsmen fell cheaply, but a strong middle order performance put them back in contention. The mountain proved too tall for Mt Martha to climb though, and they ended up bowled out for 202. Dromana were able to lock up a win at home against Carrum, defending their first day total of 219. Carrum ended up all out for 181 runs. Zacc Klan took five wickets for the winning Dromana side. Hastings also wrapped up a win at home, chasing down Crib Point’s first innings total of 138. Robert Hearn was the pick of the batsmen, scoring 77 runs.

SUB DISTRICT

BALNARRING have secured an outright win over Skye with a thoroughly dominant performance. After scoring 320 runs on day one, Balnarring proved just as dominant with ball in hand on day two. Skye were sent packing for just 24 runs in their first innings. Their highest scoring batsman put six runs on the board, and five of their batsmen were dismissed for ducks. Skye were sent back in when the follow on was enforced, and the bad times continued. They were bowled

out for 46 off just 16 overs. When the sun set at Balnarring Reserve, the home side had claimed the win by an innings and 250 runs. Things were more competitive between Boneo and Tootgarook, as Boneo were able to hold on to defend their first day total of 176 runs. Tootgarook ended up falling 20 runs short of a good result, and were bowled out for 156. Cameron Williams and Jack Beale did the damage, taking four wickets each for Boneo. At Bunguyan Reserve, an electrifying century from opener Nick Taranto helped Tyabb chase down Ballam Park’s total. Taranto scored 110 not out, helping his side to a total of 2/200 and an eight wicket win. He hit 14 fours during his innings. Carrum Downs had little trouble reaching their target of 100 runs against Rye. They surpassed Rye’s total with seven wickets to spare. Frankston YCW’s clash with Seaford was rained off.

PROVINCIAL

BADEN Powell have held on by the skin of their teeth to claim a one run win over Baxter. Baden Powell did well on day one, scoring 171 runs thanks to a big total of 81 from Rhys Elmi.

Baxter’s run chase started poorly when they lost their opener for a duck, but a strong 84 run partnership between Travis Sawers and Chris Brittain got things back on track. Doing well at 1/85, Baxter quickly fell to 4/94 and their run chase looked in a little more trouble. None of Baxter’s other batsmen were able to go on to get a big total, and at 9/166 it was down to the final two batsmen to get the six runs needed to win. The tail order couldn’t finish the job, and Baden Powell ended up bowling out Baxter for 170, just one run shy of a tie. At Alexandra Park, Mornington did well to defend their total of 206 against Flinders. Michael Heib was impressive with the ball for Mornington, posting figures of 6/54 off his 23 overs. He helped his side bowl out Flinders for 144, 63 runs short of a win. At David Macfarlane Reserve, Sorrento were able to defeat Langwarrin by chasing down their day one total of 187. The Sharks got the win with six wickets in hand. Robert Wilson top scored with 65. Despite dominating on day one and setting a target of 300, Peninsula OB didn’t get a chance to defend their total against Mt Eliza. Their clash was rained off and declared a draw.

Stubley and Guy meet with Mornington boss Adam Jamieson this week and are part of an ambitious plan which the progressive State 1 club hopes will take it into the NPL. “Andy is a flying machine who works really hard at both ends of the ground and can go past players like they’re not there so I think he’ll complement us in the way I want us to set up but obviously I need to sign him first,” Jamieson said. Guy has tasted senior football with Langwarrin and is one of the most talented teenagers in peninsula ranks. The 17-year-old has been in the NPL under-20 system for the past two seasons having been signed from Bentleigh Greens by former Langy under-20s coach and current Frankston Pines boss Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor. Guy has played for Langy in FFA Cup matches and has come off the bench for the seniors. He was Langy’s top scorer in the under-20s last season with 17 goals and was runner-up in the best and fairest and player’s player of the year awards. Harrington is expected to train with Mornington next month. The teenager earned a reputation as an impact player at Strikers last season often coming off the bench and running riot down the right-hand side. Many at Strikers think that he could have been given more game time and Jamieson is keen to use him in a wide attacking role. Last week Jamieson fended off overtures from other clubs to win the race to sign striker Dejan Radojicic from Casey Comets. Skye United was among the clubs to have spoken to Radojicic but wasn’t confident of signing him. “Yeah we spoke to Dejan but there was a list the length of my arm chasing someone of his quality and we were probably at the bottom of it but it was well worth a shot,” Skye head coach Phil McGuinness said. Radojicic and Jamieson first linked at Frankston Pines years ago and the Dallas Brooks boss was keen to clinch his signature. “I’ve known Dejan for a long time and I’ve watched him over a number of years,” Jamieson said. “I think technically he’s a very, very good player. “He finds space that not many other

players do, he reads the game brilliantly and he now scores goals. “He can play up high or in behind the front men so he presents us with different options.” Jamieson also is tracking a midfielder but remained tight-lipped when asked about his identity. In NPL2 news star Peninsula Strikers’ forward John Prescott is training at Lawton Park and will be joined by other triallists early next month. Prescott and Langy assistant coach Jamie Skelly worked together at Casey Comets and when Skelly switched to Strikers he took the big Englishman with him. It’s already been reported that Langy has lost striker Max Etheridge who has returned to England so Prescott is hoping to convince gaffer Scott Miller that he’s the man to fill the vacancy. In NPLW news Southern United player-coach Melissa Maizels has signed a contract with Melbourne Victory for the W-League season which starts next month. Southern prepared for such an eventuality by hiring two-time NPLW Coach of the Year Brian Roberts as its technical director and he’ll fill in for Maizels when needed to minimise disruption to the club’s pre-season program.

Southern’s trials have been completed at Monterey Reserve and the club will start training at its new facility at Casey Fields next month. In State 2 news Skye United wants to sign midfielder Kevin Duffy from St Kilda Celts. St Kilda is believed to be struggling with a considerable debt owed to Football Victoria and rumour has it that players are still owed match payments from last season. Duffy’s brother Stephen assists Phil McGuinness with Skye’s senior squad and played an important role in the club’s promotion from State 3 this year. “We are aiming high and trying to bring in the right type of players,” McGuinness said. “I don’t see us signing many so we definitely need to be precise in what we are looking for. “Kevin Duffy is a player I really like and can play in many positions so he would fit perfectly with our current squad of players. “We tried to get him last year but I was a bit slow off the mark and it also can be challenging trying to convince players to leave State 1 and join a club in State 2.” In State 4 news Somerville Eagles are in talks with former Rosebud Heart

youngster Zach Karolidis who played with Langwarrin under-20s last season. Somerville has secured most of last season’s championship-winning squad and work on upgrading the clubrooms at Tyabb Central Reserve started last week. In State 5 news Rosebud started preseason training last week and senior coach Pat Sabatino is “in the hunt for new players.” He can be contacted on 0406 795 078. Meanwhile the long wait for FV to organise State League best and fairest and Golden Boot award lists finally ended last week when the state federation posted the information weeks after the league season ended. There was little joy for local clubs but Mornington veteran Craig Smart was runner-up in the State 1 SouthEast best and fairest count while teammate Josh Hine finished runner-up in the Golden Boot award. Mitch Blake of Skye United was runner-up in State 3 South-East’s Golden Boot award while veteran Somerville striker Mark Pagliarulo was the second top scorer in State 5 South. FV continues to oversee an archaic information gathering system where-

by clubs are responsible for supplying information about top scorers. Referees are responsible for best and fairest votes and are expected to lodge that information on a match-by-match basis. It’s not unusual for FV to be forced to chase up both the best and fairest and scorer information after the season has ended contributing to the much criticised delay in publishing the final results. And sometimes the wrong winners have been announced. Take season 2014 for example when Daniel Attard of Skye United won the Golden Boot award for State 4 South. “I won the award on 12 goals but Marcus Roberts from Keysborough was filthy because he scored 15 goals that year and should have won,” Attard said. FV wrongly listed Roberts as only scoring 11 goals that season. Keysborough acknowledged the error in a facebook post on 14 October 2014 which read: “Congratulations to Marcus Roberts who took out second place in the FFV Golden Boot. Marcus is actually the FFV top scorer but due to a clerical error missed out on four goals being entered.” The federation was informed of the error but took no action.

Country Cups captured by Rawiller and McGill HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou UP-AND-COMING Morningtonbased apprentice jockey, Campbell Rawiller, scored the biggest win of his early career by taking out the St Arnauds Cup on Saturday 26 October. It was fitting that Rawiller took out his first country cup at the same track he won his first trial at earlier in the year. The now three kilo claiming apprentice made the most of his final meeting with his four kilo claim to lead all the way aboard the Kevin Corstens-trained Surreal Image. A late surge from the O’Sullivan-trained Patch Adams made it an interesting finish but the gutsy Surreal Image managed to cling onto the victory to win by a nose. Rawiller said it was such a thrill to reach what was a major goal for the young apprentice. “It was obviously very exciting with it being my main ride of the day,” Rawiller said. “To come back and win the Cup after winning my first trial there was great as that’s where it all sort of started. The only query was that the horse was stepping up to the distance for the first time but all honours to him - he was very tough in the way he won.” Having piloted the four-year-old gelding to a dominant four-length victory at Manangatang, Rawiller said he had a bit of confidence in the horse heading into the Cup. “He’s a horse that likes to get along with it and has to settle on his own terms - you can’t fight it. He looked like one of the main hopes as he wouldn’t

be challenged for the lead but it was really if he’d see out the trip,” he said. “We did do quite a bit of work early. He jumped and hit the gates and got firing, and then took a bit to bring back under me but once he got settled he really hit the lines strongly.” To follow on from Rawiller’s success, the apprentice’s master, Logan McGill, went on to claim a country cup of his own by taking out the $200,000 Listed Sale Cup on Sunday 27 October. Ridden by jockey Stephen Baster, the McGill-trained Gold Fields sat outside the leader before giving a kick in the straight to score by three-quarters-ofa-length over the Tasmanian-visitor, Mandela Effect. The Sale Cup win was the third country cup that the seven-year-old gelding has claimed in his 45-start career - the other two being the 2018 Wodonga Gold Cup and the 2017 Ballan Cup at Geelong. Mornington-based trainer Logan McGill said it was great to land a Listed race with such a consistent galloper. “There were a couple in the race that we were wary of but he’s just so honest,” McGill said “It was his first Listed win and he certainly deserves it! He’s been so consistent the whole way through and been racing in great form.” The $30,000 purchase has now taken his total prize money passed the $500,000 mark and bought up his 10th win with the victory in the Cup. McGill said the Kilmore Cup will likely be the next target before potentially attempting to defend his Wodonga Cup title.
