With a song in their hearts PENINSULA Chamber Musicians will perform their final two concerts for the year at Rosebud and Mornington next month.

The first is 2pm Saturday 11 November at All Saints Anglican Church, Rosebud, and the second at their regular venue 2pm Sunday 12 November at Mornington Community Theatre.

The subject pieces are Britten’s Simple Symphony, Bernstein’s Waltz from Divertimento for Orchestra, Bartok’s Romanian Dances and Mendelsohn’s Italian Symphony.

PCM performs under musical director Andrew Hall (Melbourne Symphony Orchestra) and president Anthony Pope (Orchestra Victoria).

Formed in 2013, they provide an opportunity for classical musicians to play in a high-quality chamber orchestra, as well as providing classical music lovers an opportunity to hear live orchestral music.

The musicians see themselves as the southern peninsula’s “own” orchestra.

As well as performing twice a year at their regular venues, members also take part in smaller quality ensembles performing throughout the year at different venues.

Tickets for the performance are $25 adults, $20 concession with children free.

Beach ‘repairs’ could cost $4m Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au IT could cost up to $4 million to prevent further erosion of the cliffs and beach at Mt Martha beach north.

If not fixed, the crumbling cliffs will remain a threat to the stability of Esplanade and the beach. Already closed to the public, the beach will remain inaccessible and dangerous.

The problems and possible remedies are contained in a report prepared for the Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning by consultants, Water Technology.

The report recommends removing all boat sheds at Mt Martha north unless action is taken to stop further erosion of the cliff and beach.

Options contained in the consultants’ report include building rock walls and groynes across the beach or an

offshore breakwater to slow the loss of thousands of cubic metres of sand needed to “renourish” the beach.

Ironically, the report blames seawalls built to protect other eroding cliffs for stopping “sediment” being deposited at Mt Martha beach north.

“Extra stresses have also been placed on the beach due to sea level rise, meaning the beachface is adjusting to the higher water levels experienced during storm events, and hence extra

offshore transport of sediment,” the report’s executive summary states.

The report warns that by 2040 sea level rises “will make this a difficult location to maintain a beach”.

Mornington Peninsula Shire is unlikely to adopt a suggestion that some boat shed owners be offered sites towards Mt Martha South, where about $300,000 is seen as the starting price for the cheapest sheds.

Boat sheds at Mt Martha beach north

have been reportedly been put on the market for about $80,000, but if the consultant’s report is correct values will plummet.

The report says managing cliff erosion by extending the length and height of an existing rock wall is “critical”, but will require removing some boat sheds to either be reinstalled later or their owners offered "an alternative location to south”.

NEWS DESK

Watchdog barks - bite unknown Neil Walker neil@mpnews.com.au A REPORT released by the Victorian Ombudsman this month revealed 107 complaints about Mornington Peninsula Shire were made to the watchdog over a 12-month period but council and the Ombudsman’s office will not reveal how many of the complaints were investigated or substantiated.

The Ombudsman’s annual report released on Monday 16 October listed the number of complaints about each of Victoria’s 79 councils it received during the 2016-17 financial year.

Mornington Peninsula Shire was listed as the 9th most complained about council — up from 22nd in 2015-16 with 62 complaints — to the state watchdog that has the power to investigate state government departments and agencies, councils and statutory authorities.

The News asked the Ombudsman’s office how many of the 107 complaints about the shire were investigated and substantiated but it said the information could not be provided due to legislative constraints.

A statement provided from Ombudsman Deborah Glass said complaints about councils “range from issues such as parking infringements, rates and how complaints are handled, to improper conduct and poor governance”.

“We encourage councils to ‘learn to love complaints’ as each complaint is free feedback about what someone thinks,” Ms Glass said.

“We have also issued a good practice guide for complaint handling in local government to help local councils do it better as, all too often, we see complaints about how a council has handled

someone’s complaint.

“We have also recommended that the government change the law so it is easier for agencies to apologise without exposing themselves to legal action. Saying sorry is often the most effective way councils and other public bodies can resolve a dispute with a member of the public.”

Shire governance manager Joseph Spiteri said: “Council is unable to comment on the specific nature of the complaints, the degree of investigation undertaken by the Ombudsman’s office and the specific findings of the Ombudsman”.

“All questions relating to the substantiation of complaints, the relevant subject matter or department will need to be referred to the Ombudsman’s office for comment.”

Neighbouring Frankston and Kingston councils were more forthcoming.

The Ombudsman’s office received 71 complaints about Frankston in 2016-17 and 97 complaints about Kingston during the same period.

Both councils confirmed the Ombudsman’s office contacted the respective councils about 11 complaints each and all had been resolved with no further action needed.

“Mornington Peninsula Shire council takes all complaints seriously and has effective complaint management processes in place to investigate and respond in a timely manner,” Mr Spiteri said.

When releasing its 2016-17 annual report last week, the shire trumpeted it “is committed to transparent reporting and accountability to the community”.

Casey Council was the most complained about council to the Ombudsman’s office in 2016-17 with 139 complaints.

Wow factor: Beleura’s head gardener Richard Smith with his “delicious” lily flower. Picture: Supplied

Flower takes early cue to bloom A GIANT Australian lily flower in the palm garden at Beleura has been monitored over the past month by aficionados.

The gardens surrounding the elegant mansion, built in 1863 with interesting antiques and structural features, are open for tours and events.

Like an alien Triffid, the Doryanthus palmeri is related to the better-known Gymea Lily (Doryanthus excelsa), whose torch-like, red flower heads dominate many of Melbourne’s roundabouts.

Head gardener Richard Smith said the single flower head “just kept expanding” in size so that, now, several kilos of orange-red flowers are close to drooping on the ground under their own weight.

The mature plant was brought to Beleura a

decade ago and had not yet flowered, so this year’s emergence was unexpected. Winter rains may have worked to coax the first-ever flower head from a clump of huge, sword-like leaves.

Mr Smith said Doryanthus palmeri could take up to 13 years to flower. He said he tasted the nectar by inserting his finger and licking it. “It was perfect, divine nectar!” he said.

Beleura Garden volunteers work alongside Mr Smith’s small team to maintain what they say are the “extraordinary breadth and character of the garden rooms”.

Beleura benefactor John Tallis was inspired

by Italian garden design but the addition of Australian natives in recent years has added to the garden’s allure.

More tests for chemicals at Navy base Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au WESTERN Port residents are awaiting the results of the second stage of a detailed environmental investigation into the presence of carcinogenic chemicals in surface water at HMAS Cerberus, Crib Point.

If the tests prove positive to per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a health and ecological risk assessment “may” be required, a defence spokesman said.

“This assessment will evaluate potential risks to the human population and ecology, and inform actions to mitigate risks.”

The second round of testing follows the first stage which reviewed the historic use of firefighting foams at the base to identify PFAS sources, possible runoff routes and plants and animals that could have ingested it.

It is believed signs of PFAS contamination were found in surface water samples.

The latest testing will involve sampling and analysing soil, surface water, sediment, groundwater and vegetation on the base and at properties nearby.

Soil and groundwater samples have already been taken and bores are being prepared for sampling, the spokesperson said.

Further information was collected through a water-use survey of nearby residents and businesses within one kilometre of the base to learn how they used water.

“Once the sampling is complete and results are analysed a detailed report will be prepared and shared with relevant government and regulatory bodies as well as the community. The report is expected to be completed mid-2018.”

Defence was trialling PFAS management techniques, such as water treatments, drain maintenance, and soil solidification and stabilisation trials, the spokesman said.

It is also “monitoring research around the world to ensure that it is aware of new advances in technology and methodology”.

Top marks for project pick-up A SCHOOL project in which pupils choose a community problem and then decide on an action took Kunyung Primary School’s Nathan Beckley to the beach last week.

The grade sixer was on a mission: he enlisted the help of 18 family and friends and set about collecting litter – and boy there was a lot of it.

Nathan, 12, got the idea for his project: “Exhibition”, from a story in The News about the good work of a Dromana beach clean-up crew and thought the same could be done at Mothers and Shire Hall beaches, Mornington.

Nathan, a Cub at 2nd Mornington Sea Scouts, wrote: “My problem is the plastic waste being washed up on our beaches and entangling themselves in animals and rocks.”

He drew a poster with details about the clean-up and “got as many people to come as possible”.

In one hour the group collected 28kg of rubbish, including “lots of cigarette butts, pieces of glass, bottles and plastics – and even the end of a skateboard”.

The haul will be displayed as part of Nathan’s project at the school on Wednesday 1 November. “We will show a poster and a slide show of all the things we did in the clean-up, what help was provided and what the future needs are,” he said.

Beach Patrol Safety Beach/Dromana’s Gary Robertson and Judy Newland posted online: “What an amazing effort and a huge congratulations need to go to Nathan and his school for this initiative.”

The clean-ups will become a regular part of the Mornington BeachPatrol3931 under Mornington Environment Association.

Almost sacrilegious: Football great John Schultz with the football jumper he used to wear in the surf - a “swap” with Graham “Polly” Farmer after an interstate carnival in the 1960s.

Picture: Keith Platt

‘Polly’s’ jumper makes its mark in the surf Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au JOHN Schultz knows a thing or two about football jumpers. He’s grabbed plenty as their wearers flashed past on the footy field. But he also knows they were once the best thing to keep you warm in the surf.

Young surfers of today wouldn’t know about the footy jumper-in-the-surf trick. They have the luxury of being able to choose wetsuits for summer and winter, or even a spring suit for the in-between seasons.

One of the footy jumpers former Footscray ruckman Schultz wore in the surf at Point Leo back in the early 1960s has a history.

The tradition of swapping jumpers with on-field adversaries saw Schultz in 1961 end up with the number 25 jumper worn by Geelong great Graham “Polly” Farmer. Schultz was playing for Victoria and Farmer for Western Australia at a football carnival in Brisbane.

In those days a jumper was a jumper, so Schultz saw Farmer’s black swan-decorated footy jumper as being useful in the surf. He couldn’t wear it on the field. Still able to wear it today, he estimates Farmer’s jumper could be worth $30,000-$40,000, money he’d like to see go towards cancer research at the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre.

His wife Elaine died from cancer in 2013 and Schultz believes it’s time for Farmer’s jumper to be put to another good use.

Schultz, who at 21 won the Brownlow Medal in 1960 while playing for the Bulldogs in the Victorian Football League, was also in the side when it lost the 1961 Grand Final to Hawthorn – its previous

finals appearance before winning the 2016 flag.

He and Farmer have both been inducted into the Australian Football Hall of Fame, Schultz in 1996 with the citation: “Rucking giant who never let the side down. Set the standard for the modern ruckman.”

He donned Farmer’s jumper earlier this month while visiting the Trigger Brothers shop at Point Leo to see the repairs to his 1960s George Rice surfboard.

The three-stringer 10 foot board (surfers still talk in imperial measure) weighs 18 kilograms and will be displayed during a Vintage Surf Day at the Point Leo foreshore 10am-3pm, Sunday 12 November.

Schultz says the dings are all the result of the rocks at Suicide Point, long regarded as the premier wave at Point Leo. “I was not a good surfer and I distinctly remember how well the board performed when I was not on it, as I watched it cruising in on the wave after I had fallen off,” he says.

“Of course the board always settled and crashed against the Suicide rocks, hence all the dings and it was always a long swim in to recover it.

“The boards were very heavy and the easiest way to carry them was two surfers one behind the other with the boards under their arms. Despite being very heavy they still flew up into the air if you were dumped, so you had to dive deep until you heard the board hit the water again.”

Schultz has given the board to fellow Shoreham resident Richard Stokes to add to his growing, historic collection.

Another swapped footy jumper came to Schultz from John Winneke after Footscray lost that 1961 Grand Final.

That was Hawthorn’s first premiership (after 46

years in the competition) and Winneke went on to be a Supreme Court judge.

Footscray had won the premiership in 1954 and, unknown to players and fans, faced a long drought before appearing in another Grand Final, let alone winning the flag.

Winneke’s jumper now resides in the Hawthorn club’s museum while the whereabouts of Schultz’s remains unknown - Winneke misplaced it.

Schultz said he took up surfing after his parents built a holiday house at Balnarring.

The family came from rural Boort, in northwest Victoria, and, although a keen swimmer, surfing had never been on his radar until the early 1960s.

“I surfed mainly in summer, not because of the cold water in winter, but because it was footy season and I was scared of being injured,” Schultz, who played 10 seasons for the Bulldogs, says. “I remember the swell was usually up around Easter, but that was also the start of the footy season.”

He can’t recall ever seeing other VFA footballers in the surf but says, “you used to see lots of the long-sleeved footy jumpers worn on building sites”.

Although he admits wearing Polly Farmer’s jumper in the surf “now seems sacrilegious”, Schultz says the Geelong player at that stage was seen as being “good, but not as highly regarded as he is today”.

Still close to the Footscray club, Schultz was invited to join the playing group at the 2016 Grand Final and then given the “tremendous honour” of presenting the premiership cup to Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge and co-captains Easton Wood and Bob Murphy.

These days, he’s awaiting a doctor’s all clear so he can “mother duck” a couple of his grandchildren as they surf at Point Leo or Shoreham.

Artist’s church installation A STAINED glass window by renowned artist David Wright has been installed at St John’s Church, Flinders.

The design by Wright, who has a studio and lives at Flinders, incorporates the emblem of St John, the golden eagle, and represents the Bun Wurrung people with indigenous plants.

Glass used by Wright in his windows is layered and moulded in the kiln to produce “rich colour and texture”.

The window can be viewed by the public in the Kings St, Flinders church on 4 and 5 November during the annual flower festival.

Wright, whose past commissions include work for the new Parliament House, Canberra and the Creation wall at St James, King St, Sydney, spent his childhood holidays on the Mornington Peninsula 60 years ago. “David’s exceptional skill and imagination in this rare art is shown brilliantly in the wonderful window in which he also expresses his profound and deeply spiritual understanding of theology,” St John’s vicar the Rev Jennifer Furphy said.

Some of Wright’s other major projects include 22 windows for Temple Beth Israel Synagogue in Melbourne and a commission for St Peter’s Cathedral, Adelaide celebrating women’s ministry.

Recent work for Caulfield Grammar School involves major windows for the Wheelers Hill campus and 12 panels for the chapel of St Paul in Caulfield.

Wright’s art is held in the collections of the National Gallery of Australia, the National Gallery of Victoria and the National Glass Collection and has featured in exhibitions in Australia, the United States, Europe and Japan.

Call to curb culls A Mt MARTHA-based animal rights group has protested to the state government over what it calls “unethical” kangaroo culls at a Cape Schanck property.

Australian Wildlife Protection Council secretary Eve Kelly wrote to Energy, Environment and Climate Change Minister Lily D’Ambrosio saying an Authority to Control Wildlife permit to kill kangaroos at a property on Patterson Rd was causing kangaroos to “injure themselves and die horribly fleeing the gunfire [while] trapped in sections of the land”.

Ms Kelly included photographs of large holes in fences – said to have been cut by vandals – which allow the kangaroos to access the land on which they are killed.

“We have serious concerns about the approval of this permit and the reasons given for why it was/is needed,” she said, referring to a Department of Environment, Land, Water and Planning statement that: “The owner of the property had tried other means to keep the kangaroos off the property, including kangaroo fencing, however, these were not effective.”

Ms Kelly said a neighbour told her that the holes “had been there for over a year”.

“Therefore, [DELWP’s] statement that kangaroo fencing was tried but ineffective, is untrue,” she said.

“A fence is not effective if there are large holes in it. The fencing is the landowner’s responsibility and the integrity of the fencing should have been assessed before a [cull] permit was issued.

“The holes are allowing the kangaroos to access to the land, then when the cull takes place they are injured, fleeing the gunfire, and die horribly trapped in sections of the land. This is unethical.

“Why was [the cull] permit issued before the

landowner made all reasonable attempts to fix the fence? Did a DELWP inspector attend the entire property and inspect the exclusion methods before issuing a permit to kill this native wildlife?”

The owner of the property, GSA Bloodstock, was called for comment.

DELWP’s environment, natural resources and fisheries regional manager Merryn Kelly said “all practical non-lethal control options must be exhausted before a lethal control permit is considered”.

She said an independent panel of experts (IPE) had considered a kangaroo management plan for the property in discussions with the applicant and neighbours.

“The owner … had tried other means to keep the kangaroos off the property, including the fencing,” she said. “DELWP is aware of the holes … which have come about from repeated vandalism.”

She said the fence was “one of the options that was exhausted” before the cull permit was issued.

“The fence was cut before the permit was applied for, and the IPE did not recommend repairing [it] … on the basis of the high cost to the landowner and likelihood of repeat vandalism.

“Also, the IPE stated [that] repairing the fence would not resolve the broader issue of kangaroo displacement in the area.

“The kangaroos have grazed the pasture of the property to the extent that its capacity to hold stock has been greatly reduced and is causing the landowner serious economic loss.”

Ms Kelly said the panel of experts since 2012 had advised DELWP on “complex culling applications and wildlife management issues”.

But the Australian Wildlife Protection Council queried the granting of the cull permit because of “serious economic loss”.

DELWP did “not require the storing of culled animals for count confirmation due to the inherent health and disease risks of such a practice”, the department’s Merryn Kelly said.

Birds, a satirist’s ‘natural’ quarry Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au

LY

Still contributing: A calendar featuring photographs of birds taken by the late John Clarke is being sold to raise money for ABC Friends National and the Trust for Nature. Picture: Yanni

JOHN Clarke made a name for himself as a stalker of politicians and hypocrites. He managed to pour scorn with a twinkle in his eye and a half smile, leaving his target little choice but to respond in the same way.

Sometimes his barbed comments were so sharp his victim would be impaled before he or she had a chance to realise the space they now occupied.

But Clarke, who died Sunday 9 April this year, also enjoyed a sometimes-solitary pastime that also involved a great deal of subterfuge and stalking. The cutting comedian photographed birds.

He had a special soft spot for the birds that frequented the mangroves, mud and sand banks of Western Port, a sensitive ecosystem that Clarke tried to protect at every opportunity (“Defender of the bay dies while hiking in the hills” The News 11/4/17).

His prize was to capture a memorable image, one that in some way gave the observer an insight into the bird.

His public side - most notably in sketches over the past 25 years with his on-screen foil and long time friend Bryan Dawe that satirised politicians and the pompous - was also designed to leave a lasting image, but it would be one that could be referenced and gauged against the future actions of a public figure.

It is interesting to note the relevance of the weekly Clarke & Dawe “interviews” (now being re-screened by ABC TV), confirming the epigram of French author Jean-Baptiste Alphonse Karr (1808-1890) “the more things change, the more they stay the same”.

Clarke, 68, owned a house at Phillip Island and was a founding member of Western Port

Seagrass Partnership, which lobbies for the protection and restoration of Western Port and its catchment.

Images of birds taken by Clarke are now included in a calendar being released to raise money for two organisations which he backed: ABC Friends National and the Trust for Nature.

“John Clarke made us all laugh with his genius wit and satire, but he wasn’t your normal comedian,” ABC Friends National spokesman Ranald Macdonald said.

“He wasn’t prone to public display and overexposure, he was a deeply private person.”

Mr Macdonald said Clarke’s hobby of photographing birds enabled him to “clear his ever-ranging mind” as he took shots at Phillip Island, the Mornington Peninsula ands Bass coast.

“He was a natural photographer, though the photographs must have taken a great deal of time, patience, and concentration to achieve.”

MPs split over assisted dying bill Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au TWO of the four MPs whose electorates cover Frankston and the Mornington Peninsula voted against the Voluntary Assisted Dying Bill passed by the Victorian Parliament’s lower house.

The upper house is expected to vote on the bill in the next few weeks.

Mornington Liberal MP David Morris and Frankston MP, Labor’s Paul Edbrooke, voted for the bill. Mr Morris’s Liberal colleagues, Neale Burgess (Hastings) and Martin Dixon (Nepean) were against.

MPs of all parties were allowed a conscience vote for the contentious legislation proposed by the Andrews Labor government, which took four days to debate before it was passed 47 to 37.

Mr Morris said parliament had no right to deny long suffering, terminally ill patients “we know best how your final days will be spent”.

He said the words “euthanasia” and “suicide” were being misused when describing what the bill was meant to achieve.

Mr Edbrooke described his decades of dealing with death as a firefighter – not on religion or politics - to explain his support of the bill.

“Of course we always did everything within our power to save the lives of trauma patients, including terminally ill people who had made unsuccessful and botched suicide attempts, but regardless of the nature of the injury, the fact is that many times there was little we could do but comfort the dying person until they passed, and console their family,” Mr Edbrooke said.

“Perhaps what remained with me more than those trauma scenes were the many times when I held the hands of dying people and spoke softly to the patients, who were often in horrible pain, to ease them until they passed.”

He said family members always wanted to if their relative had suffered or was in pain.

Mr Edbrooke said the bill was not a “slippery slope” to abuse or one that would be “extended to vulnerable groups in our society”.

“The small percentage of people that this bill appeals to are already dying, their diagnosis is fatal and their prognosis is dire. They are not solely depressed individuals wanting to die. They often have full faculty, are required to make decisions and are no longer holding onto the chance that they might survive or a miracle

‘Patients simply do not wish to confront the pain and confront the suffering that many know await them’ DAVID Morris

might occur.

“These are people begging their families to help them die, starving themselves to death over a month, stopping their dialysis or hoarding tablets to take a lethal dose.”

Mr Burgess was concerned that the “euthanasia” option could be misused by people depression or that doctors would misdiagnose a patient’s life expectancy.

He graphically described “unexpected side effects” experienced by patients in the Netherlands and “one death in Oregon lasted 104 hours”.

Mr Dixon said his constituents had accepted that he would not say how he would vote until the legislation was before parliament, although one who demanded he vote yes hoped “I hope you, your friends and your family will die long and horrible deaths”.

Mr Dixon told parliament that he had been “at the deathbeds” of four close relatives: his daughter 30 years ago, his parents and, last year, his wife.

“All of them had peaceful, pain-free deaths,” he said.

Mr Dixon said he opposed the legislation because there was no guarantee “the legislation will not be weakened or extended in the future”.

“There are no guarantees that some people will die who really did not want to die or should not have died, but I also recognise that there are no guarantees of a pain-free death either.

But I always have to err on the side of life.”

Mr Dixon said six weeks previously he had been told there was an

‘There are no guarantees that some people will die who really did not want to die or should not have died...’

‘I do not think I have spoken to anybody who thinks a doctor … can accurately give a prognosis of death within 12 months.’

‘The small percentage of people that this bill appeals to are already dying, their diagnosis is fatal and their prognosis is dire.’

80 per cent chance he had cancer.

That “mind-numbing” shock had since proved incorrect, but it had not changed his mind about opposing the bill.

“I apologise to all those who have watched a loved one die a painful death and to all those who were relying on me to vote for this legislation.”

Mr Morris said the bill was historically significant and the conscience vote was a chance to see “legislation genuinely debated”.

While life expectancy had almost doubled since the 1850s due to advances in medical science “patients simply do not wish to confront the pain and confront the suffering that many know await them”.

If death is inevitable, then a desire to avoid further unnecessary trauma I think is entirely understandable,” Mr Morris said.

Mr Morris gave two graphic examples of people with terminal diseases committing suicide to avoid further pain and suffering.

“No-one should have to end their life hanging from a bridge. No-one should have to turn their nail gun on themselves. Yet that is the reality.

That is what is happening in Victoria in 2017, and in my view it needs to change.”

Mr Morris said those opposed to the bill often used the emotive words “suicide” or “euthanasia” but “neither accurately describes the framework proposed by the bill”.

He said euthanasia was “state-sanctioned” killing, where a decision was

made by a third party … “this bill is not about killing patients”.

With regard to suicide, Mr Morris said the bill would allow terminally ill patients to determine “the timing of their departure from the world” but that was “a vastly different circumstance to a physically healthy person deciding to end their own life”.

He would oppose the bill if it enabled suicide on demand.

“But that is not what is proposed.

What is proposed is that terminally ill patients — patients who will, without question, die within months, potentially suffer enormous pain and suffer undoubted indignities — be given the choice to depart this world on their own terms and in their own time.”

Mr Morris said it would be “untenable” to profess to believe in freedom of religion, speech, assembly, the press and free markets “and then to presume to impose through the law your own moral and ethical code”.

It was wrong for parliament to say to a terminally ill citizen, “We know best”.

Mr Burgess said “euthanasia just is not the attractive picture that is painted” even though that was a picture that enabled people to “end our lives when we want, on our terms, smoothly and with no pain and no trauma”.

“Can we say in Victoria that we have tried everything to reach a point where we can end the suffering of people in the late stages of their life without offering them the blunt solution of death?” he asked.

“I do not think I have spoken to anybody who thinks a doctor … can accurately give a prognosis of death within 12 months. If it goes out to 12 months, it might be five years. If it goes out to five years, it might not happen for quite a long time.

Mr Burgess said the government should have been prepared to “really boost palliative care” not just offering a “meagre” 16 per cent.

He said euthanasia “should be our last option. That should always be our last option”.

Mr Burgess used the example of people who “basically pulled themselves to pieces” during a fire in a European cinema to illustrate human “survival instinct”.

“When you have gone through enough suffering at the end of life, that survival instinct is hidden well and truly below the surface but it is still there, and that is the thing that we should be focusing on. It is something that is really important. It is a line that we should not cross,” he said.

Euthanasia was “somewhere we have not been before and not somewhere I think that this community wants to go”.

A “gaping hole” in the legislation was that “it does nothing to protect people when they have mental illness”.

“They might be suffering from a fatal disease that they are going to die of at some point, but that might be, as I have already pointed out, five years down the track, and yet they could access this legislation on the basis of their depression.”

Trio charged over man’s death

Racehorse raffle FIRST prize in Mt Martha Bowls Club’s raffle is a 10 per cent stake in racehorse, Fiesty.

The gelding has been donated by trainer Steve Cunningham, of Crestevia Racing Stables, with all costs over five years included.

Second prize is a year’s membership at Mornington Racing Club, and third is 30 bottles of wine.

Money raised through ticket sales will go towards paying for the bowls club’s new $50,000 kitchen. Half the renovation costs will come from Mornington Peninsula Shire.

The raffle (5000 tickets at $5 each) will be drawn at the club on Melbourne Cup Day, Tuesday 7 November.

Tickets will be sold at Bentons Square and Mornington Centro shopping centres.

Details: fundraising coordinator Chris Chaney 59710213 or 0427337821.

Beach cleaners MORNINGTON Environment Association wants to expand its role by starting Beach Patrol 3931 and is calling on volunteers to help.

President Jill McIver said those who cared about the environment and beaches were needed for one hour a month.

Beach Patrol 3931 will clean Fishermans, Royal, Mothers, Shire Hall and Mills beaches.

“Although we have Clean-Up Australia Day each year in March this would be a voluntary group meeting once a month to keep our coastline litter free,” Ms McIver said.

Those interested can call Ms McIver 0414 916 689 or email morningtonea@gmail.com

Battered: Few boat sheds at Mt Martha north beach have been left unscathed by storms and experts say they may have to go. Picture: Keith Platt

Boat sheds could go Continued from Page 1 Several of the boat sheds at Mt Martha beach north have been condemned

by Mornington peninsula Shire but have yet to be removed.

Others are being repaired, although the shire has closed access to the beach.

The presence of Aboriginal middens on the eroded cliff will also require a cultural heritage management plan before any work can be undertaken.

The cost of the options for preventing the cliff from collapsing further range from $600,000 for sand and a small rock groyne to $4 million for sand, a breakwater and several long groynes extending from the beach into the water.

It took three years for the sea to wash away 12,500 cubic metres of sand deposited at Mt Martha beach north in 2010.

The consultants report has been given to both the Mt Martha North Beach Users Group and Mornington Peninsula Beach Box Association.

A community meeting is planned next month (November) and beach

users will be surveyed “to gauge need for ongoing community access to the beach”.

Much of the affected beach is a leash-free area for dogs.

The report states that there is “presently” no money available for “any further works” and extra money is needed for “detailed coastal modeling” and for the “recommended remediation approach”.

As previously reported (“Beach closed for safety” The News 25/9/17) there are widening cracks in the cliff face and access stairs have been blocked or cut off before they reach the beach.

Cracks are also appearing in the bitumen on the Esplanade above the unstable cliffs that saw the beach closed in mid-September.

At that time, the shire said the beach was being closed to the public “for safety reasons” until further notice.

The closure effectively blocks access to 50 boatsheds and paths from the Esplanade leading to the beach near Augusta and Alice streets and Coolangatta Rd, Mt Martha.

A HASTINGS woman was charged with murder on Thursday (26 October) after a man’s body was found in a shallow grave at Tyabb last week.

Natalie Dalton, 36, faced Melbourne Magistrates Court on Friday and has been remanded to reappear on 23 March.

She is accused of killing Jade Goodwin at Hastings on 14-15 October. She did not apply for bail.

Police reportedly told magistrate Duncan Reynolds they would need extra time to prepare for the case which they said had several crime scenes and many witness statements and telephone intercepts to be transcribed.

A 52-year-old Crib Point man, Brendan Mcdowall, and a 34-year-old Hastings man, Shane Heiberg, were both charged with murder on Sunday (29 October) and faced Melbourne Magistrates’ court later that day.

Neither man applied for bail and both were remanded until their next court appearance on 3 November.

Mr Goodwin’s body was found at a vacant rural property on DandenongHastings Rd, 9pm, Sunday 22 October.

The next day, homicide Squad detectives called in 40 SES volunteers to line search the 11.7ha property.

Forensics police laid down yellow markers pointing to possible evidence at the scene, including a black glove in the driveway. A blue tent was set up at the rear, possibly to cover the body.

A source said police were paying particular attention to a locked steel gate.

The rundown property, with weatherboard house, machinery shed, steel

outbuildings and dam, had been vacant for about 12 months, with locals saying it was being used as a dumping ground.

Anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000 or file a confidential report at crimestoppersvic.com.au

Women’s murders

SIX rewards of $1 million will be paid for information leading to convictions in the murders of six women whose bodies were found in Frankston and Tynong North in 1980-81.

The rewards are part of Operation Lyndhurst and are the largest ever offered in Victoria. They relate to the disappearance and murder of six women – two from Frankston and four from other suburbs – between May 1980 and October 1981.

On 30 May 1980, Allison Rooke, 59, was seen leaving her home in Hannah St, Frankston North, 11am, intending to catch a bus to the shops. Her body was discovered by a man walking his dogs in scrubland near McClelland Drive, Frankston, 5 July, 1980.

On 9 October 1981, Joy Carmel Summers, 55, was seen at a bus stop at Chile St and Frankston-Dandenong Rd, Frankston, 1pm, intending to catch a bus to the Frankston shops. Her body was found in scrubland near Skye Rd, Frankston North, 22 November 1981.

The four other women – from Glen Iris, Berwick, Cranbourne, and Brunswick – were aged 14-73. Three of the women’s bodies were found at Tynong North, and a fourth at Tynong North.

Shire hypocritical with help for aged Having read Mornington Peninsula Shire’s invitation for residents to share ideas on how “to improve the peninsula for older people and make it an even better place to age well”, I feel compelled to finally expose the hypocrisy of Mornington Peninsula Shire Council as my medical specialists have been advising me to do since 2006 (“Ageing well on the Mornington Peninsula” The News 24/10/17).

We are in our mid-80s and have for the past 11 years experienced council’s treatment of the elderly.

Earlier this month, council gave an enforceable undertaking to WorkSafe of a commitment to safety after being charged with failing to protect members of the public from risks to their health and safety. Council has certainly failed to protect my health and safety and has contributed to destroying both.

Since 2003, council has refused to take action [against a neighbour]. On 25 October at least three noisy, heavy tractors emitting plumes of toxic exhaust were driven several times up and down our neighbour’s drive, three metres from the wall of our house.

The CEO and councillors going overseas to find ways to improve the environment on the peninsula need go no further than looking into the activities, or lack thereof, of their own donothing employees. No-one from council has monitored the number of tractors, heavy duty vehicles and agricultural machinery still on the quarter acre residential property since a direction was given in March 2016 to reduce the number of tractors to one, and that not be driven on the property. There are at least five tractors.

I believe this is a breach council’s undertaking to WorkSafe of a “commitment to safety” and could result in council’s prosecution, which ratepayers would ultimately fund. A more fitting penalty would be to sack the council and give back to the Western Port region its own council.

Name and address supplied Editor: The News has been given a copy of a letter to the mayor Cr Bev Colomb detailing activities on the writer’s neighbouring property and a history of correspondence with the shire, Hastings MP Neale Burgess and Flinders MP Greg Hunt. He says the shire took action, albeit unsatisfactory, only after the intervention of the MPs.

Investigate council Overseas trips by [Mornington Peninsula Shire] councillors should be a matter of concern for ratepayers. I cannot recollect any perceived benefit resulting from the [2016] Paris trip and I would expect this [latest] exercise to be the same.

Ratepayers are entitled to expect more from their rates than a slush fund for councillors to dip into whenever they have a though bubble. I believe it is time that this council’s operations were reviewed by the appropriate authority to

ensure its members are acting in terms of their mandate and, if not, appropriate action is taken, such as being put in administration.

Graham Lee, McCrae

Talk about tourism Mechelle Cheers is correct in being concerned about negative impacts of tourism on the natural environment (“Tourism can have downside” The News 10/10/17). It’s obvious that everything has its limits.

Farmers know they can’t overstock paddocks, pilots know their plane won’t get off the ground if there are too many people on board and trucks, cars, trains and buses all have upper limits for safe loads. It is elementary physics, and yet some people including industries reliant on growing the numbers think we can crash through these fundamental physical laws and keep expanding.

The world is governed by Newtown’s Third Law. Put simply, that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. Eventually, Planet Earth will start unloading the overload.

I had hoped that governments, bureaucrats and industry would have the sense to plan for a soft landing for humanity, but they are behaving like drunken sailors.

One day there won’t be anywhere nice for tourists to visit because we will have overloaded all our beautiful places. What will the tourism industry do then? Ms Cheers’ polite suggestion that we should start a conversation now is eminently sensible, isn’t it?

Jenny Warfe, Dromana

Future peril It is heartening to hear Michael Free admit that many of our world’s governments are firmly in the pocket of the carbon extraction industries.

It just shows the predatory behaviour of this corporate sector in full swing (“All ‘coal’ fired up” Letters 24/10/17).

Governments beholden to these leeches are putting the future of our children and grandchildren in peril in their never-ending quest for easy money. And many of our own politicians are following the same mantra of doing nothing about climate change if it inconveniences the carbon extraction industries.

It is high time Australia gets a federal corruption and crime commission to look at the influence of corporations on our political system.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Abbott is right So Rupert Steiner (“Attention Seeker” Letters 17/10/17) accuses ex-Prime Minister Tony Abbott of being “an irrelevant footnote to history” because he refuses to swallow the green lobby’s climate change charade hook line and sinker.

I can assure Mr Steiner that Mr Abbott is not alone in expressing a healthy scepticism about

Eclectic Sorrento Just had the best laugh at your article on Mitre 10 and the conditions the council has attached to its redevelopment (“Permit aims to preserve heritage” The News 24/10/17). The council certainly is making our street eclectic, just look at our ultra-modern visitor centre.

Armanda Sirianni, Sorrento

an almost religious movement which tends to disregard facts, such as the fact that the Earth’s warming has flat-lined or that more people die from the cold than heat or that a little warmth and extra CO2 produce bumper crops. Another fact ignored is that Australia’s billions of dollars contributed to alternative energy sources have had a negligible effect on the climate, while costing each and every Australian in taxes, power costs and reliability.

Self-serving green carpetbaggers should not be used as an authority when tying to justify our spending billions to make no difference. When the Bureau of Meteorology has its temperature data questioned for fudging, it shows that even the climate scientists have now gotten on the lucrative climate change bandwagon.

Mr Steiner’s claim that “the age of coal is truly finished” differs greatly from the fact that all over the globe hundreds of new coal-fired power plants are currently under construction with many more planned. No nation can currently supply all its energy needs using just renewable sources.

Rather than labelling people who question the rubbery facts of the climate change promoters as “uninformed, delusional, irrelevant, closed minded, desperate attention seekers”, Mr. Steiner should first consider the real facts.

Thanks Mr Abbott for your rational and timely input.

Chris Spillane, Blairgowrie

Australia ‘going broke’ Esther Gleixner thinks that instead of developing Australia’s coal wealth our government should be diverting that money into developing renewable energy and offering retraining packages to miners (“Back renewables” Letters 17/10/17).

Having sunk billions into renewable energy companies, she now thinks that we should shut down our coalmines, our coal export industry and our coal-fired power stations because “the polls constantly show the majority of Australians are against Adani and in favour of renewables”.

The facts.

1. Ms Gleixner can rest easy as the money allocated by the government for the development of the Adani mine is a loan, not a gift.

2. Australia is spending $2.2 billion a year on renewable energy subsidies (due to increase to $2.8 billion by 2030) resulting in a negligible and immeasurable impact on the climate.

3. Our contribution to global temperatures is miniscule and Australia’s chief scientist admits that our efforts will have negligible impact.

4. The Bureau of Meteorology’s figures have been found to be unreliable due to faulty or incorrectly positioned instruments and incorrectly collected and collated temperature data.

5. While we reduce our standard of living to phase out a handful of coal-fired plants, China has 299 under construction and India 132. Indonesia, Japan, Vietnam, South Korea, the Philippines, South Africa will add a further 621 plants.

This will lift their people out of poverty and provide their power needs, while we in Australia go in the opposite direction.

6. The polls should be asking: do you want Australians to lose their jobs? Do you want our mining industry decimated? Do you want Australian power prices to keep doubling every few years? Do you want Australia to go broke trying to solve the world’s climate issues? The outcome of such a poll may surprise even Ms Gleixner.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Cigarettes wanted for front line soldiers Compiled by Brodie Cowburn “PLEASE keep on sending us all the cigarettes you can”, was the message received the other day from a commanding officer at the front by the Over-Seas Club Southern Club Tobacco Fund.

“I write this on behalf of all the men under my command,” he continued, “and I can safely say that every other would write you the same thing, in the meantime, please accept my sincere thanks for the case of Australian made cigarettes. They are a boon and a blessing.” *** IT has been officially reported through the Red Cross Bureau that Pte Arnold R. Bartram, youngest son of G. A. Bartram, “Clare” Gould St, Frankston, (late Manager of Wine, Spirit and Tobacco Dept. Mutual Store) is prisoner of war in Germany.

He was previously reported died of wounds at 29th Casuality Clearing Station on 13th May 1917. *** DEAFNESS AND NOISES IN THE HEAD can now be must certainly cured by the newly discovered “French Orlene”.

Mr D. Borthwick, of Dalbeattie, N,D. writes. “Your new remedy which I received from you some time ago, HAS COMPLETELY CURED MY HEARING AFTER MORE THAN TWENTY YEARS’ DEAFNESS. I will be pleased to recommend it to all my friends.” *** THE vacancy for local correspondent of the “Age” caused by the lamented death of Mr J. Reynolds, has been filled by the appointment to the posi-

tion of Mrs M. H. Burton, widow of Private A. C. Burton. *** GLOOM was cast over the town when news came to hand that Private Denham eldest son of Mr and Mrs A. Denham was killed in action.

No particulars are to hand.

Lawrie was a general favorite and a good sport. Our sympathy is with the bereaved parents. *** QUITE a gloom was cast over Somerville last Friday 26th October, when the sad news of Mrs Ernest Croft’s wife’s death.

Mrs Croft was highly respected in this district and her death is deeply regretted by a large circle of friends. *** GENERAL regret was expressed also when it became known that Mr Arnold Toebleman of Moorooduc had been killed in action. *** A VERY successful ball was held in the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall, on Friday evening, October 26th, the proceeds of which are to be devoted to improving the sanctuary of the Roman Catholic Church.

Mrs E C Ryan was the energetic secretary and was ably assisted by a willing committee.

The Hall presented a very gay appearance, being most effectively decorated with flags and flowers. *** BIRD Day was observed on the 25th at the Tyabb State School.

The weather was all that could be desired. At 11 oclock the children were conveyed, accompanied by the parents and friends.

The committee had decided to lunch in the park but the heavy rains made it too damp.

After lunch had been partaken Mr G. Shepherd gave a very interesting address illustrated by stuffed specimens.

Mr Shepherd has an easy manner of imparting his extensive knowledge of bird life which appeals to young folk. *** SOMERVILLE Fruitgrowers Association - Annual show. Mr Twyford moved that a show be held this year.

Seconded by Mr C. Murray. Mr Murray moved and Mr Twyford seconded that the show be held on 13th of next March. Carried.

Mr Keast mored that a proportion of the profits be given to Patriotic purposes Seconded by Mr Unthank.

Carried. *** A MEETING of delegates chosen from the Branches of the National Federation, Womens National League and Peoples Party on the Peninsula was held in the Frankston Mechanics Hall on Thursday afternoon delegates being present from Frankston, Somerville, Tyabb, and Dromana.

Mr. E Dowers of the Frankston branch of the National Federation was voted to the chair.

It was essential that a young and vigorous man should be chosen one who would be able to cope with the money and serous situations that had arisen owing to the exceptional circumstances in which we were now placed. *** ALEX. Scott and Co. and Adamson Strettle and Co. conjointly report Dairy Cattle - A fair supply of both milkers and springers.

Fat cows to £16 5s choppers to £14 5s, store cows to £12 10s. heifers to £8 10s, yearlings to £6 10s, poddies to £5 5s. *** MR R. M. Anderson, one of the candidates for the seat held by the Hon. A. Downward for the Mornington Electorate, addressed a meeting of electors at the Frankston Mechanics’ Hall on Monday evening.

Dr Plowman occupied the chair, and in introducing the candidate, said the time had now arrived in which we could make a choice of candidates.

The past Parliament had been unsatisfactory, and at the present time we wanted new blood to stimulate the energies of our public men.

He had read Mr Anderson’s programme and he had no hesitation in declaring himself in favor of it.

Our Shire Councillors showed better business acumen than the late parliament.

Mr Anderson had spoken in Frankston at the time of the Federal election and had created a very favorable impression.

He had much pleasure in introducing the speaker, and asked that he be given a fair hearing.

Mr Anderson said that he intended to speak in a business way that evening.

The State is a business concern, and should be run by business men.

He was pleased to see so many present, and after he had expressed his views he hoped that they would be so favorably impressed as to determine to

return him at the head of the poll. *** A NUMBER of areas have under the Game Acts been proclaimed by the Governor-in-Council as localities in which, during the whole year, it is unlawful for any person to kill any species of Native Game (birds and other animals).

Full information of these localities can be obtained on application to the Chief Inspector of Fisheries and Game. *** On Friday night Oct 26th the Mount Eliza Church Hall was again the place in which the patriotic spirit was prominently brought foward in the form of a social evening, coin collection being taken at the door, This social was in connection with two important events.

First, to hold a meeting of subscribers to the Mount Eliza District, and scholars of the school Honor Roll which is in the form of a very large frame with the photos of all the brave men that hae left this district to fight for God and Country and Empire.

The meeting was to decide the day the unveiling should take place and the date fixed was on the Saturday, 10th of November at 3 in the afternoon when all well wishers are cordially invited to be present and in the evening a social is to be spent.

This social was also of a patriotic nature, the proceeds of which are to buy suitable gifts for a Bran Pie, to be held at the Mornington Flower Show, which should benefit substantially. *** From the pages of the Mornington Standard, 3 Novemeber 1917

Brad tons have Dogs primed PROVINCIAL

By IT Gully MORNINGTON’S Brad McDonald and Brad Wilson have placed their team in a commanding position in MPCA Provincial after both scoring centuries against Pearcedale.

Sam Wiese left the middle after making 33 of the first 49 runs, before McDonald joined Wilson at the crease.

What took place when the two came together was nothing short of a batting master class.

McDonald finished unbeaten on 150 after hitting 15 fours and two sixes, while Wilson was out for 101 when

enough to stop them being skittled in the 74th over.

Mt Eliza skipper Justin Grant was at his dominant best, snaring 4/27 from 23.5 overs, while Lyle House was also superb, picking up 2/27 from 20 overs.

Rob Maskiell took 2/14.

In reply, Mt Eliza has lost Damien Kent and will resume at 1/8.

Langwarrin has set Peninsula Old Boys 217 for victory after winning the toss and batting first in their game.

Matt Prosser was the key for Langwarrin, top scoring with 68, while Jake Prosser was next best with 38.

Jon Forrest was the pick of the POB bowlers with 4/56 from 24 overs.

the score was 290.

Mornington pulled up stumps with six overs left in the day, declaring at 4/298.

Shayne Gillings bowled 24 overs and finished with 2/88 for Pearcedale while Sam Frawley picked up 2/37 from just eight overs.

The Panthers survived the final six overs of the day thanks to openers Brad Trotter and Chris Dew and they’ll resume at 0/12 with a long chase to follow.

The woes of reigning MPCA Provincial champions Baxter continued on Saturday, smashed by Sorrento on the opening day of the first two-day

game of the season.

After winning just one of its first three one-day games this season, Baxter was looking forward to the traditional two-day form of the game.

However, its horror start to the season continued against the Sorras, rolled for just 133 in 60.3 overs.

Once again it was the middle and lower order that offered nothing.

Baxter lost its last six wickets for just 33 runs after being 4/100.

Daniel Warwick top scored with 33 while Todd Quinn came back into the side and opened with 27.

It was a superb performance from the Sorrento bowling attack.

CJ King bowled 12 overs and returned with 4/38, Chathupama Gunasinghe chimed in with 3/25 from 18 overs and Connor McMahon snared 3/34.

In reply, Sorrento will begin day two in a strong position, resuming at 1/47.

The Sorras lost Corey Harris for 15 in the final overs for the day. Jedd Falck will start on 27 not out.

Crib Point will need to produce something pretty special with the ball on the second day of its match against Mt Eliza after being bowled out for 123 on Saturday.

Skipper Matty Blake top scored for the Pies with 30, however, it wasn’t

ter Jayde Herrick took all three wickets for 28 runs off seven overs.

Pines has left Main Ridge with some work to do with the bat on the second day after scoring 234 at Eric Bell Reserve.

The Piners won the toss and batted first and opener Chris Bartczak got the home team away to a flier with 66. Harley Peace-Stirling continued his outstanding start to the season too with a high score of 72. A slight wag of the tale helped the home side over 200.

Oliver McEnroe was the pick of the Main Ridge bowlers with 5/56 from 24.1 overs, while Peter McNamara snared 3/67 from 15 overs.

Red Hill is in the box seat in its match against Delacombe Park after Glenn Collett tore through the batting line up, dominating with an impressive 5/26 from 17 overs, including eight maidens.

Brent Martin was also impressive

for the Hillmen with 4/38 from 30.2 overs, including 15 maidens.

The Parkers just couldn’t score, eventually bowled out in the 74th over for just 137 runs.

Jon Guthrie top scored for the home team with 44 while Nick Christides hit 26.

The Parkers at one stage lost 5/14.

Red Hill will resume this week at 0/4.

Moorooduc has left Flinders with some work to do in their match.

The Ducs batted first and looked to be in some real trouble at 9/104.

However, number 11 Kenny Cremen made 51 and number 10 Reece Cordeux hit 32 to drag the score to 192, a superb performance from those two.

Earlier, Max Royal (3/41) and Dwayne Field (2/32) did some early damage with the ball.

Flinders faced the final eight overs of the day and lost a wicket. They’ll resume at 1/14 this Saturday.

Too close: The Long Island and Somerville match will go down to the wire.

Islanders, Eagle go down to the wire PENINSULA

By IT Gully THE MPCA Peninsula match between Long Island and Somerville will go down to the wire after 13 wickets fell on the opening day of their clash at Ballam Park.

Somerville won the toss and elected to bat in the first two-day game of the season, a decision that didn’t work out too well for them.

It could have been a lot worse had it not been for the efforts of Bailey White (38) and Brenton Alp (22) after coming to the crease at number seven and eight.

At one stage the Eagles were reeling at 5/47. They finished with 136.

Stuart Swift was the Long Island bowler who caused all of the carnage, bowling 14 overs for a return of 6/39.

Long Island faced the final 14 overs of the day and lost three wickets for just 19 runs. They’ll resume at 3/46 af-

Brave effort: Baden Powell only lasted 70.2 overs, but got early wickets against Seaford. Picture: Andrew Hurst

By IT Gully HASTINGS is on the verge of winning its first game of the season after a good opening day against Rye in MPCA District.

On the back of some ordinary form, Hastings was justifiably sent into bat by Rye after the Demons won the toss.

Rob Hearn needed to get his side off to a good start and he obliged with a game-high 61, including eight fours.

Ryan McNamara contributed 33 and Sean Hewitt 20 in the middle order to help the Blues to a final score of 177.

Unfortunately for the Blues, they lost their final six wickets for just 12 runs.

The Blues had 18 overs at the Demons at the end of the day and made an impression, picking up 3/27.

Heatherhill opening batsman Sam Mullavey fell agonisingly close to a century on Saturday against Rosebud, losing his wicket on 99.

However, Mullavey’s sensational innings helped his side to a more than competitive total of 6/306.

Matt Bishop was solid at four with 65 and Brad Mur contributed a well-

timed 39 to push he home team beyond 300.

It was a long day for the Rosebud bowlers and fieldsmen, skipper Billy Quigley finishing with 3/95 from 25 overs to be the pick of the bowlers.

Baden Powell appears to be in a strong position against Seaford after the first day of their clash.

The Braves were sent in to bat by Seaford and lasted just 70.2 overs.

Andrew Sparks (57) and Rhys Elmi (50) shared a strong partnership in the middle order while Elia Carter opened with 30.

Dean Polson was the best of the Seaford bowlers with 4/34 from 17.3 overs while Dale Christie snared 3/44.

Seaford faced the final nine overs of the day and it didn’t go according to plan, losing 2/27 at stumps.

Seaford Tigers need a miracle to beat Mt Martha after being rolled for just 116. Anthony Joel top scored with 19 and Mackenzie Gardner scored 18 for the Tigers, who were rolled in the 64th over.

Steve O’Neill was the pick of the Reds’ bowlers with 4/26 from 16 overs.

In reply, Mt Martha is coasting at 1/38 with 80 more overs left to score 90 runs.

The Saints go marching on SUB-DISTRICT

By IT Gully BALNARRING’S dominant start to the season continued on Saturday against Frankston YCW in MPCA Sub-District.

The Saints have continued to march on, batting first and scoring 257 against last season’s grand finalists.

The visitors were shaky early, however 95 runs to Mark Walles and then some solid support to follow helped the Saints push 300.

Lachlan Barton scored 46 and Ben

King 35 batting at seven and eight.

The Stonecats faced the final six overs of the day and finished at 1/24.

Tootgarook is in the box seat to beat Carrum.

The Lions batted first on Saturday and were rolled for just 102 in 72 overs.

Scott Sterling was superb for the Frogs with 5/22 from 21 overs while Jaryd Millington and Adam Taylor picked up a couple of wickets each.

In reply, the home side got away to a solid start, scoring 29 runs without the loss of a wicket in eight overs.

Tyabb should pick up victory against Skye.

Skye won the toss and batted first but lasted just 74 overs for 142 runs.

Brodie Bennett was superb with the ball for the Yabbies with 5/47 from 25 overs. Matty Dimkos bowled just 1.1 overs but picked up 2/1.

In the chase, Tyabb will resume day two at 1/21 after Nick Taranto was dismissed for 12 just before stumps.

Carrum Downs has already won its match against Boneo on first innings.

The Pandas batted first on their

home deck and were rolled for just 73 in 42 overs. David Dervan took 3/10 from 10 overs and Mick Flahive 3/11 from nine overs for the Cougars.

Carrum Downs lost its first two wickets for just 17 before getting it together and finishing the afternoon on 5/79.

Boneo will be looking at bowlingout Carrum Downs quickly on day two and giving themselves the opportunity to pull off an unlikely reverseoutright win.

Dromana’s Jack Fowler and Jedd Savage have a lot of responsibility on

their shoulders as their side resumes at 3/15 against Ballam Park. Savage is unbeaten on six and Fowler is yet to get off the mark after their side lost the first three wickets after facing the final 15 overs of the day.

Earlier, Dromana’s bowlers had done the job for their team, rolling the Knights for 136.

Justin Moore top scored for the Knights with 39 while Zac Klan was the pick of the Dromana bowlers with 3/16 from 12 overs.

Mornington boss: ‘The buck stops with me’ SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie MORNINGTON gaffer Adam Jamieson has taken responsibility for missing out on NPL promotion and has vowed that he won’t make the same mistake again.

“We had a squad to do a lot better but you’re probably looking at complacency being an issue,” said Jamieson.

His side finished runner-up to Langwarrin by a solitary point in the race for the State 1 South-East title and while Lawton Park fans were celebrating there was a lot of soul-searching done at Dallas Brooks Park.

“You get ‘Patch’ (Ryan Paczkowski) back, then Scotty Millar then you get Josh Valadon and Aaron Root in and Simon Mur’s heading back and you think you’re getting Josh Hine (then with Salford City in England) and you still don’t get the job done.

“Probably the pre-season wasn’t as good as what it should have been and as for the training sessions well you’d think players know from two years back the style of football you want to play but it probably took until halfway through the season to start playing the way we wanted to.

“When you get done by a point you look back on these things and you wonder what might have been but I take full responsibility for what happened and as far as I’m concerned the buck stops with me.”

Jamieson also believes that the way he structured the team in the first half of the season contributed to the end result.

“We set up with three midfielders who are all good footballers – ‘Smarty’ (Craig Smart), Matty Wade and ‘Reidy’ (Chris Reid) – but there’s a same, same about them and they aren’t particularly quick and once we got Sammy Orritt in it changed the whole dynamic of the midfield.”

Wade and another import, Nathan Smith, are not expected to return for 2018 while Reid is rumoured to have attracted the attention of Richmond, which was recently relegated from NPL ranks.

Orritt turned out to be the club’s talisman in the back half of the season scoring regularly as Mornington went on a sustained winning run.

He’s re-signed for 2018 along with another English import, Jack Truelove.

“I think young Jack had a fantastic year and people forget that he’s only 21,” said Jamieson.

Goalkeeper Kris McEvoy also has re-signed and the club hopes to retain Millar, Valadon, Root, Mur, Smart, Keegan Ziada, James Laminski, Charlie Parker, Wayne Gordon,

Jack rejoins: Mornington defender Jack Truelove has agreed terms for 2018.

Danny Black, Stevie Elliott, Nathan Yole and Stefan Soler.

Jamieson sees striker Marinos Panayi as part of Mornington’s future but the youngster continues to be linked with Langwarrin as does Elliott while the rumour mill suggests that Smart has attracted the attention of another local club.

“I’m not anticipating a huge turnover and I think it’s pretty natural these days to lose four or five and bring in four or five.

“We’ve targeted a couple of players from other clubs, a central midfielder and a defender and we hope to announce another signing next week.

“We have a couple of overseas players in mind but it’s very early doors. They’re based in England and they both play up front.”

Mornington has not joined the throng of clubs circling Langwarrin and waiting to pounce on players it releases. Not yet anyway.

“If (Liam) Baxter was to become available and if they were to offer him to us then we’d definitely take him but we’re hearing that Casey

31 October 2017

Comets is interested.

“The same goes for Aaran Currie.

He’s a talent.

“But we’re concentrating on other players right now not Langwarrin players.”

Even before pre-season training has started Jamieson has to recover from the bodyblow of losing star striker Paczkowski who recently signed for NPL heavyweight Oakleigh Cannons.

“It was a huge disappointment losing ‘Patch’ but I completely understand why he’s joined Oakleigh.

“I mean when NPL clubs ring you every flippin’ week what can you do?

It is what it is.”

Off the field Mornington is on a sound financial footing and enjoys strong local community backing.

“We’re looking at around $150,000 a year in sponsorship and we operated under budget last season so we’ll maintain the same budget next season and we believe that it will be enough to mount a serious title campaign,” said president Matt Cameron.

“We’re going to invest $30,000 of

our own money into our pitches and our plan is to be NPL-ready.

“The council has over 200 sporting bodies to deal with in the Mornington Shire area and we’re working hard on developing our brand and putting our club at the forefront of council’s thinking when it comes to our sport.”

Few of those sporting bodies are as large as Mornington which fielded 28 junior teams this year including five girls’ teams.

Club and council work closely to target grants and one such State Government grant will be put to good use over summer when the main pitch becomes fully floodlit.

Winning has become the norm at Mornington and both Jamieson and Cameron are focussed on success next year.

“As a football club we’re obviously doing something right when we win two championships and come runner-up twice in four years,” said Jamieson.

“I think winning the title next year will be a lot more difficult than last season because clubs realise what it takes now.

“They’ve seen what Langwarrin did and how successful they were at it and I’m expecting a lot more clubs to have a lot more visa players.

“I think Richmond in particular will have a red-hot go and we’re already hearing that they’ve signed some very good players.

“I think Casey will bring in a couple of visas and I expect Eltham

and Beaumaris to be decent sides while Caulfield now knows what it takes then there’s Clifton Hill and Malvern.

“Yeah it’s going to be tough but this time we won’t take anything for granted and we’re going to make sure that we’re right up there.”

If stability is a key to success then Mornington can expect a big year as Jamieson will be surrounded by the usual suspects.

Dale White is assistant coach, Andy Mason is reserves coach while Martyn Ashton and Tony McKay are team managers.

The club is yet to appoint a goalkeeping coach but plans to talk to local legend Peter Blasby.

Meanwhile Peninsula Strikers have agreed terms with four UK-based players who are expected to arrive in January.

The club has also agreed terms with central defender Aaron Wilford and looks likely to retain goalkeeper Colin McCormack, midfielder Danny Brooks and striker Aziz Bayeh.

Four Altona City players and a player from Caulfield United Cobras are on Strikers’ radar while central defender Raphael Stulz is training with South Melbourne.

In other news Skye United assistant coach Billy Rae is likely to stay with the State 3 South-East outfit after being linked with the technical director’s job at Southern United.

Skye held its annual presentation night last weekend and defender Johnny Andrinopoulos did the double adding the senior best and fairest to his players’ player award.

Midfielder Marcus Collier was runner-up in the best and fairest for the second year running while Daniel Attard’s 11 goals clinched his fourth successive Golden Boot award.

Daniel Jones did the reserves double adding the best and fairest to his players’ player award with David Popa runner-up in the best and fairest and Lawrence Komba clinching Golden Boot honours.

Caitlyn Williams and Abi Johnston shared the senior women’s best and fairest award with Saskia Dekker runner-up and Amber Brierley and Madison Brooks sharing Golden Boot honours.

Zenai Cerda won the reserve women’s best and fairest with Alanah Gregory runner-up and Charlotte Galjar winning the Golden Boot award.

State 4 South outfit Baxter has officially appointed senior goalkeeper Francis Beck as head coach while Justin Brown has been re-elected club president for a third term.

Baxter hopes to announce a senior assistant and a reserves coach in coming weeks.

Experienced coaches take the reins at Mornington

By Ben Triandafillou MORNINGTON Basketball has appointed Darren Thomas to the position of Big V head coach for the Women’s Youth League 2018 season.

Thomas, who most recently was head coach of the Pakenham Big V Youth League Women, commenced his role a couple of weeks ago and has bought his wealth of experience to the club.

Thomas has worked his way through the ranks at the Ballarat representative program from coaching under-14s through to the SEABL head coach in 2013, including two seasons as Ballarat Rush Youth League head coach.

Thomas will work closely with Mornington Basketball’s Big V Women’s head coach, Steve Matthews to deliver a strong and cohesive women’s program working alongside their junior program.

The appointment is the third major change to the club’s Big V coaching staff in the last three weeks with Kenneth Brunner joining as head coach of the Big V Men’s Senior side and Chris

Horsbrough signing on as the head coach of the Big V Youth Men’s team.

Mornington Basketball operations manager, Sam Browne, said the club is thrilled to have the experienced coaches on board to help not only the seniors but also the junior development.

“We are really focussing on getting our juniors and seniors working side by side,” she said.

“The new coaches have a lot to offer not only for our senior’s teams but also as they offer a strong and clear pathway for our juniors to make their way up into the seniors.”

Brunner has travelled the world playing professional basketball and holds the most games played in California history with 137.

He has worked and played with Michael Jordan and held the top spot as the best streetball point guard in the world.

Brunner has recently coached three teams in Big V grand finals winning the Youth League Men’s in 2012 and Division 2 Men’s in 2016.

He was nominated for Big V Coach of the Year

in 2012, 2015 and won the award in 2016.

Brunner will now take up his new role at the Breakers and said he is excited to become a Breaker and with the structures currently in place, he’s very confident that the club will do great things.

“I have been very impressed with how professional and switched on the people at Mornington are and trust the process in place,” he said.

“I look forward to developing the players and working with the other quality coaches as we strive for greatness.”

Horsbrough, who has been assistant coach in the Big V Men’s team for several seasons, will now transition to coaching the Youth Men’s side and work alongside Kenneth Brunner to ensure the men’s program continues to improve.

The first open training session for under-20, Youth League and Senior Women’s was held on Tuesday 24th October with try-outs for the sides occurring at the moment in preparation for the season opener in early-2018.

Australian Diamonds netballer joins Edi-Asp

By Ben Triandafillou RECENTLY retired Australian Diamond defender, Julie Corletto, has joined EdithvaleAspendale’s Netball Club as a specialist coach for the 2018 season.

A member of the Australian Diamonds since 2007, Corletto concluded her injury-plagued career with a third world title in 2015 and has now entered a new phase in her career with Edi-Asp. Starting out as a “throw away comment” at one of the club’s luncheons, Edithvale-Aspendale netball president, Helen Hollis, said she was in disbelief when Corletto took up the opportunity to coach at the club.

“She was a guest speaker at our luncheon and she had the room completely entranced about her stories in the world championships and how she overcame a broken foot,” Hollis said.

“She was so inspiring, and we are always on the lookout for a good coach, so at the end I threw out a comment about coaching and instead of laughing like many normally do she sort of said yes.

“So, we decided to follow her up on it and now

she’s come from helping the Australian team work on their defence a couple of weeks ago to now helping us out with our pre-season.

“We are still in a little bit of disbelief.”

Corletto has represented Australia on 52 occasions, winning three world championships and a Commonwealth Games gold medal in 2014.

Now expecting her second child in February next year, Corletto will run pre-season for Agrade through to D-grade at Edi-Asp for the next six weeks.

She will also play a key role with helping the A-grade and B-grade teams work on their defensive side of the game before taking a break nearing February.

“She’s very down to earth and has injected a lot of enthusiasm into the club,” Hollis said.

“There’s a lot going on at the club at the moment and she’s created a real buzz since joining.”

The netballers are coming off the back of having all four grades make the finals last season and now with the recruitment of Julie Corletto, in unison with head coach Claire Houben, Edi-Asp are hoping to continue to improve off last season’s impressive results.

Sudoku and crossword solutions

By Ben Triandafillou THE Mornington Peninsula Athletics Club made their presence felt at last week’s School Sport Victoria track and field championships with six of their young athletes polling a total of 10 times.

The athletics club was represented by Jeremy Fraser (Frankston High School), Taj Davies (Mornington Secondary College), Hayley Silvester (Dromana College), Mehdi Hassani (Cranbourne Secondary College), Harry Phillips (Drouin Secondary College) and Will Hunt (Dromana College) on Monday 23 October at Lakeside Stadium, Albert Park.

Mornington Peninsula Athletics Club coach and secretary, Craig Mahony, said the results were great considering it is still early in the season for the young athletes.

“I think they all did really well, the results were generally pleasing and they will most likely continue to improve as the season goes on,” he said.

Hayley Silvester, 19, led the way for the club and her school, competing in five events throughout the day. Silvester won the 200m dash and the 400m run, where she broke her personal best time by three seconds. She also finished second in the 100m hurdles - again in a personal best time - third in the 100m sprint and third in the 4x100m relay.

“It was a big day for her and she did exceptionally well,” Mahony said.

Fellow Dromana College student, Will Hunt, 15, finished fourth in his 100m sprint while Mehdi Hassani, 19, finished third in his 100m multi-class dash.

“Mehdi did really well considering he’s a distance runner and had to compete in the 100m because they didn’t have a further event for him.

He just had to give it a go,” Mahony said.

Taj Davies, 14, was narrowly beaten in a photo finish for his 800m event while Harry Phillips, 17, was able to break the two minute
