WORK to redevelop Andrew Kerr Frail and Aged Care Complex in Mornington is set to start as early as July.

The much-anticipated start comes after almost four years of negotiations with Mornington Peninsula Shire as well as debate over the future of Glenbank, the 1875 Italianate mansion at the heart of the complex on the corner of Barkly St and Tanti Ave. The not-for-profit company initially wanted to demolish Glenbank but faced stiff opposition from the shire, neighbours, other Mornington residents, historical societies and the peninsula branch of National Trust.

It withdrew its demolition application in early 2013 and, encouraged by the shire, submitted new plans for a larger complex.

Andrew Kerr board vice-chairman Tony Sewell, also convener of the building committee, said the organisation was pleased the project was about to start after tenders closed in early May. “We will finalise negotiations with the builder in the next week or 10 days,� he told The News late last week.

The $28 million project of 2011 is now a $38 million one involving a mixture of refurbished and new buildings.

Mr Sewell said initial plans for 26 two-bedroom “independent living� units in two-storey buildings had been changed to 34 units in three two-storey

buildings with underground parking for 50 cars.

There will be four 30-bed aged care units, with underground parking for 48 cars of staff and visitors. The buildings accommodating aged care residents will be built or refurbished first and are expected to be ready by July next year.

All work will be finished by July 2017.

Glenbank will be renovated inside and become a hub for people in the independent units with a communal dining room, cafe, library and meeting rooms as well as two offices for staff.

Day care patients will be in a new building.

The mansion will also have an outdoor terrace and rooftop deck. “The tradeoff of retaining Glenbank and the shire allowing more units has worked out well. “There will be more people living at Andrew Kerr – up from a total population of 117 to 170 – which will allow a greater diversity of services,�

Mr Sewell said. “It will be good to see Glenbank better utilised because of the renovations.�

A 1960s addition to Glenbank will be removed and a new, less-intrusive and more compact addition built. Major work will be done on the mansion’s foundations. Mr Sewell said landscaping would highlight Glenbank and make it more of a feature of the site.

All new buildings will be within the 10-metre residential height limit.

Top mum took in ‘baggage and all’ Farm thieves meet

market demand

Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au A MORNINGTON woman has been named a Barnardos Mother of the Year 2015 national finalist at a recent awards night in Sydney.

Barnardos Australia is one of the leading child protection charities in Australia.

Dreena Lawrence-Gray was presented with her award by the Prime Minister Tony Abbott and his wife Margie. She was nominated by her daughter-in-kind Lana Guest.

Ms Lawrence-Gray was a single mum who already had a “lively, rebellious teenager” when she made the decision to invite another one into her home. Lana Guest, then 17, was a troubled friend of her daughter’s.

Born to heroin-addicted parents, Lana was just two when her father died and her mother abandoned her to a life of mental, physical and sexual abuse.

Lana, now 22, nominated her foster mum in the award for choosing to take her in and look after her as one of her own – “baggage and all”.

“I met Dreena when I was 17 after befriending her daughter, Rijana, who I had met out and about while I was living part time with my grandparents and part time on friends’ couches,” Lana said.

“I was also struggling with drug addiction and had just dropped out of school. I started spending more time with Rijana and Dreena asked me one day if I wanted to move in.

“I initially felt like a burden and wasn't too sure but, after much consideration, I decided I would and it

turned my life around. Dreena made me feel like I was a part of the family and to this day I introduce her as my mother.”

Under Ms Lawrence-Gray’s watchful eye, Lana cleaned up her act, got a job and discovered the simple joy of family. “Dreena has opened so many doors for me and I hold her responsible for the positive changes I made to my life,” she said.

“Without her huge generous heart and her beautiful family I would not be the person I am today - I might not even be here today at all.”

Ms Lawrence-Gray also works for the Heart Foundation and school crossings Victoria.

“She is an amazing woman who is always helping out those in need and struggling – young people, women who are down on life, anyone in trouble – even though she herself is a single mother and has struggled financially to raise her own daughter,” friend Therese Fletcher said.

“Her award for fostering young Lana is not the only time she has guided young people and help get them back on track in life.”

BURGLARIES at two farms in Tuerong have highlighted the risks residents take in leaving their property unguarded in unlocked sheds and garages.

Detective Sergeant Nick Vallas, of Mornington police, said “thousands of dollars” in handyman tools and equipment, including a generator, nail gun and sporting equipment, was stolen from the large rural properties on 21 May. These goods will make their way onto the second-hand market, where naïve – or unscrupulous – buyers will snap them up for unrealistically cheap prices, he said.

Last week police raided three Hastings properties looking for stolen goods, and, at one address, found a previously stolen chainsaw which the occupant reportedly had bought for $300 second-hand. He was the “innocent party” in the transaction but had to forfeit the chainsaw to police.

“Out of 80 burglaries we investigated last month – in Bittern, Safety Beach, Dromana, Red Hill, Main Ridge and Tuerong – a high proportion of goods had been stolen from sheds and holiday homes,” Det. Vallas said.

“There could be $20,000 worth of tools and equipment in them but the owner still leaves the doors unlocked

– and yet every tradie needs tools so there is always a ready market for thieves,” he said.

“We have got to get the message through. Owners must write down the makes, models, serial numbers and purchase details of all their equipment – and take photographs – so that, if anything gets stolen, we can return it.

“The details can be stored online, on memory sticks, in diaries – anywhere – but we need that information as proof of purchase so we can return stolen items to their rightful owners.”

Det Vallas said external movement lights, quality locks, chains and padlocks deterred thieves, who didn’t want their job made any harder. He urged those buying second-hand tools to get the names and addresses of sellers before agreeing to buy them.

“And, don’t just meet someone in the car park, or out the back of the pub,” he warned.

“Also, if the price is too cheap, or the serial number has been scratched off, then alarm bells should ring. Remember, if police catch up with you, you could be charged with handling stolen goods, as well as losing the items which, hopefully, will then be returned to their rightful owners.”

He said property owners should also check their insurance policies to ensure items and equipment are covered for theft.

SALE NOW ON! Books not tourists: The shire has leased a campervan to replace the mobile library bus as it undergoes supersizing at a cost of $285,000. Librarian Veronica Wright at Mt Martha on Friday. Picture: Yanni

Mobile library off for ‘supersizing’ THE shire’s distinctive mobile library has gone to the renovators for a $285,000 makeover that will include expanding its middle section.

It will away for about eight weeks and has been replaced by a more modest vehicle that will trundle around the shire’s 16 mobile library stops to keep far-flung readers happy.

The book bus was driven to a truck body specialist in Melbourne last week to receive a new expandable middle that will take it from about 2.5 metres wide to six metres, enough room for a small lounge area, according to the shire’s library boss Geoff Carson.

“The lounge area will have three computers – a PC and two tablets,” he said. “The bus will be repainted with a more eye-catching design.”

The renovation was supposed to occur last year but when the shire “went to market” its budget was short by about $70,000. The shire already had a state government grant of $125,000 from the 2013-14 Living Libraries program but had to wait for extra cash to take its contribution up to $160,000.

It is the first renovation of the bus since it was bought 15 years ago. The prime mover is changed every five years.

The mobile library holds about 4000 books, CDs, DVDs, magazines and other items.

Mr Carson said the mobile library was operated by two staff members.

The mayor, Cr Bev Colomb, said the refurbishment would allow “library users to access our collection with increased access to computers and in greater comfort”.

“The refit will include a new body with an extended capsule to include public computers and wi-fi access. In addition, there will be new shelving, seating and a streamlined interior,” she said.

“The temporary van will provide an abridged service offering library members the ability to return items, place and collect reservations and access a selection of books and other items for borrowing.”

The revamped vehicle will be unveiled in late July.  Mobile library locations and visiting days: Monday: Somers, Crib Point, Baxter, Tyabb.

Tuesday: Blairgowrie, Portsea, Sorrento.

Wednesday: Flinders, Shoreham, Red Hill.

Thursday: Rye, Tootgarook, Dromana. Friday: Mt Martha and Mt Eliza. Saturday: Balnarring.

Mornington. The footpath has spent a long time on the wish list and has been needed even more since the popular skate park opened in early 2012.

Mt Eliza area councillor Andrew Dixon said Emil Madsen Reserve was the biggest in the shire when he was debating unmade car parks at a council meeting late last month.

He said Mt Eliza had the largest junior football club and that the reserve’s three ovals were used during the week and on weekends.

The new path will possibly encourage more walkers and joggers to use a popular route of about 10 kilometres that takes in Wooralla Drive to Tower Rd, down the hill to Emil Madsen Reserve, along the rail line to Mt Eliza Regional Park, up through the quarry reserve to Canadian Bay Rd and down to Mt Eliza Village.

Tender start for steep path NEGOTIATING steep Wooralla Drive in Mt Eliza by foot is to be avoided by all but the most experienced walkers but that’s about to change with the shire getting ready for the construction of a footpath between the Tower Rd roundabout and Emil Madsen Reserve.

Tender documents are being prepared and the shire is likely to call for prices from construction companies in about four weeks.

It is hoped work will start in August or September.

The long-awaited path will wind down the steep hill and have a bridge over Balcombe Creek. It will also cross the railway line, which is used by Mornington Railway Preservation Society about three Sundays every month for a tourist train between Moorooduc and Mornington.

It is hoped there will eventually be a shared path beside the rail line from Moorooduc to

Viva L’Italia: Lorenzo D’Alia, Cr Antonella Celi, Rye Italian Citizens’ Club’s Antonina Fazio, and Cr David Gibb, raised a flag to celebrate the 69thFesta della Repubblica.

Flag raised for Italy’s national day A CEREMONY recognising the 69th anniversary of the Italian Republic drew about 60 residents to the shire’s Rosebud office on Tuesday.

“Italians have made an important and long-lasting contribution to Australia as a nation for many, many decades,” Cr David Gibb said.

“Today, Italian Australians are prominent in politics, sport, journalism, law and the arts, and have considerable influence on the growth of Australia’s construction, food, wine, fishing and tourism industries.”

The Rosebud Italian Club’s Lorenzo

D’Alia said Italians were grateful “knowing that we have contributed to the development of this country, and consider ourselves fortunate to live our tranquil lives in our second home Australia – but never forgetting our motherland - Italy”.

Cr Antonella Celi, who has Italian heritage, spoke in Italian. “Today, we come together to celebrate 69 years of the Italian republic and, as Italians who have built a prosperous life in this great nation of Australia, we proudly remember our Italian heritage as we raise the Italian flag in honour

of this day.”

Festa della Repubblica – the Italian National Day and Republic Day - is celebrated on 2 June each year.

Shire communications manager Todd Trimble said the shire had been asked by the Rosebud Italian Club to stage the flag.

He said a similar ceremony had been held at the request of a Greek group in years gone by.

“If an English ex-pats’ group, or any other group, requests a similar service, I am sure we would assist them,” Mr Trimble said.

Now Search and rescue: Mornington resident Michael Turner has been recognised in the Queen’s Birthday Honours list for community work with Marine Rescue Victoria.

Queen’s nod for bay rescuer A MORNINGTON Marine Rescue Victoria volunteer has been awarded the Emergency Service Medal (ESM) in the Queen’s Birthday Honours.

The list recognises a diverse range of contributions and service across all fields, including professional endeavours, community service, Defence and Emergency Services personnel, and acts of bravery.

Michael John Turner, of Mornington, began his community work in 1990 with the then Mornington Community Bay Rescue Service.

He has taken a key role in provisioning and maintaining boats and equipment, as well as turning out and managing the vessels. Along the way he has taken a lead role in mentoring young members and supporting and training other members.

His citation describes him as “one of the mainstays of the service’s school education program, delivering safety talks and demonstrations with others to primary and secondary school groups over many years.

“His contribution has been in keeping with the finest traditions of volunteer service.”

Mr Turner, a former British merchant seaman, said he was “passionate” about the rescue service and was “fortunate to be able to work with

a great bunch of guys”.

Recalling his most exciting rescue came easily when he spoke to The News on Friday. “In the early 1990s we were out looking for a missing surf skier about 6am somewhere between here and Sandringham.

“Technology has come a long way since then because we didn’t even know where Sandringham was. I remember it was very rough and the water was cold.

“We were somewhere off Patterson River [Carrum] when, all of a sudden, he came over the top of a huge wave and we spotted him and I called out ‘Hard to starboard’. The skier kept disappearing in the huge seas but then we got him alongside and he was at the end of his rope because he’d been out all night. He was as grateful as we were to get him aboard.”

Janet Stuart Oliver, of Mornington, was awarded a Medal of the Order of Australia (OAM) for “services to conservation and the environment, and to the community of the Mornington Peninsula”.

Valerie Joan Wilson, also of Mornington, was awarded a OAM for “service to the community of Mornington as an historian”.

Hospice moves into new home PENINSULA Home Hospice (PHH) has launched a $5m campaign to pay for its new Mornington headquarters.

The building will provide the first permanent home for the 30-year-old organisation that supports people suffering from a terminal illness.

The service offers free palliative care, counselling and therapies to patients and their families in the municipalities of Mornington Peninsula, Frankston and Kingston (south of Mordialloc Creek).

Small charges may apply to care by the Royal District Nursing Service (RDNS) and the use of specialist equipment.

Directors of PHH bought 327 Main St, Mornington, in April after research and “years of coping with leases ending, moving, changes of address, operating out of crowded, separated premises and moving some of their team into commercially rented offices”, CEO Rachel Bovenizer said.

The money came from a community bank loan and PHH’s own cash reserves.

The $5 million raised through the appeal will pay for the building and modifications.

“Continued operation from multiple sites is not cost efficient, it causes an unavoidable level of professional disconnect between management, administration, clinical staff and volunteers who work in an emotional and complex field that requires optimal teamwork and cohesion,” Ms Bovenizer said.

“Finding a permanent home for the hospice will not only give the security that the organisation requires to take us comfortably into the future, but will allow for the forecast growth in client numbers and the increase in staff to meet that need.”

The PHH care team includes specialist palliative care nurses, RDNS nurses, a palliative medical consultant, counsellors and therapists, a spiritual care worker and client care volunteers.

The aim of the care team is to enable the ter-

minally ill and their families to live as actively and independently as possible and to spend their last days in the familiarity and comfort of home.

Support to the families continues for up to 18 months after the death of their relative.

Statistics show that on any single day PHH helps more than 190 people and their families.

The hospice foundation, established this year as a capital fundraising committee of PHH, will begin approaching potential donors and seeking public help in the next few months.

“We must be careful not to undermine the extraordinary work done by our hard working fund raising committees,” board director and foundation committee member Rosemary Redston said.

“While we receive some generous recurrent state government funding, it is our auxiliaries who raise the necessary additional funds required to maintain our services each year.”

Board Director, Tony Vaughan said the new building will enable PHH “to not only secure its future tenancy and accommodate the demand on its services, which will increase with the predicted future population growth, but also to embrace the latest best practice in palliative care and create a facility that will be considered a centre of excellence in its field”.

PHH Foundation ambassador Sue McCarthy said contributions would be sought from “philanthropic members of our community who value the wonderful work done by Peninsula Home Hospice”.

School readies for buildings but MP doubts funding MOOROODUC Primary principal Peter Quigley is getting ready to choose architects for a new teacher resource centre and administration block funded by a $1 million grant allocated in the recent state budget.

“The $1 million is certain,” he said.

“It is to be fully funded within the next months. We have done quite well.”

However, Mornington MP David Morris doubts that the full amount needed for the new buildings will come through.

“Promises have been made to a great many schools, the projects promised far exceed the funds available. Let’s hope Moorooduc is not one of them ... but the fact remains there is no money specifically for Moorooduc in the budget.”

Mr Quigley says Moorooduc Primary had been “neglected by governments for the past 50 years – now we are catching up”.

“We received $300,000 for a water treatment facility in 2012 and $759,000 last year to refurbish six classrooms and a library - work which will be finished in a fortnight. And now we have received $1 million in the budget to choose architects for the resource centre and administration block.”

The money was contained in the

state budget’s $207 million Education – School Upgrades fund to renovate, refurbish and rebuild 46 schools - with 19 other schools funded for maintenance and planning projects.

“Both Osborne Primary School and Mornington Primary School were promised rebuilds by the Brumby government, but they were never funded,” Mr Morris said.

“The tactic was to get architects in, get the plans drawn, but not fund the construction.

“I notice Mr Quigley says they have money for architects, I hope this is not an indication this government is going down the same path.”

Mr Morris said the previous Coalition government in 2014 announced funding of $759,000 to update the school’s ageing infrastructure.

“As this month’s budget papers clearly show, works to the value of $58,000 was undertaken in the current financial year, $571,000 is scheduled for 2015-16, with the balance of the project to be completed in 2016-17.

“There is no new project for Moorooduc Primary School, and the only existing project was funded by the Coalition in 2014. Not one additional cent has been allocated in the coming year.”

Taking control to change life for the better FORMER police officer turned business and life coach Ruth Cyster-Stuettgen wants women to know they can have a bright future no matter how dark the present can be.

The mother-of-three has turned her life around after leaving an abusive situation and has written a book called From Misery to Mastery: Journey to Freedom and Empowerment as a guide for anyone who has “ever felt lost, helpless or scared of what your life has become”.

She hopes the book can find an audience with “women who are suffering in silence behind closed doors” and give women tips and strategies to empower themselves to make a change.

“The reason why I wanted to write the book was to use it as a tool for myself to heal and to be a voice for other women going through the same thing.”

The book includes practical exercises to enable women to forgive themselves for tolerating abusive situations due to feeling isolated before seeking support.

The author’s own life has been a journey to seek freedom from oppression. In the early 1980s her family left South Africa and moved to Australia.

“We left to basically escape the Apartheid regime and have a better life in Australia,” she said.

After studying for a degree at La Trobe University, Ms Cyster-Stuettgen joined Victoria Police and spent time living in Germany after leaving the force.

Despite an outwardly happy disposition and life, she said appearances can be deceiving.

Strong advice: Ruth Cyster-Stuettgen has written a book she believes can help women navigate themselves away from unhappy and abusive domestic situations.

Picture: Yanni

“There are so many women out there in an abusive situation who don’t appear to be going through things like that and that’s a dangerous thing.

“Try to be strong enough to step out and create of seek help from support systems to not have to be scared of consequences of speaking out.”

Ms Cyster-Stuettgen used to attend domestic violence incidents during her time in the police force and she believes the way authorities in the legal system deal with such cases has improved since the 1980s.

“Decide that enough is enough, and take control of your life – move to-

wards one of peace, love and success, for yourself and your family.”

From Misery to Mastery: Journey to Freedom and Empowerment published by Busybird Publishing will be officially launched at Petersen’s Bookstore, 103 High St, Hastings on Sunday 14 June, 3-5pm with special guest Rose Batty, domestic violence campaigner and Australian of the Year.

Entry is free. Light refreshments will be provided.

Road safety message designed to save lives

Scenic living: Sales have breathed new life into Martha Cove water front project.

Latest sale a plus for marina development stagnating for a time, and the original developer collapsing. Three major receivers helped rejuvenate the project and, since 2013, more than 500 properties have yielded $200 million in sales.

Two of the last stages to be released - Waterside and The Waterfront - are at the southern end of the marina.

Surrounded by parkland, and only minutes from the Safety Beach Country Club, they offer premium houseand-waterfront lots and are tipped to sell quickly.

The Martha Cove sales office is open 11am-4pm Wednesday to Saturday.

Mt Eliza house fire A WOMAN in her 80s was taken to Frankston Hospital early on Wednesday morning suffering burns to her face, back and neck, and smoke inhalation, after fire gutted her Mt Eliza house.

Acting Sergeant Annette Reynolds, of Mornington police, said an electrical fault was being blamed for the Meribil Cl, fire, which was extinguished by Frankston fire brigade.

ANYONE needing to make or update their will can get help on Wednesday 29 July when the Red Cross brings its Wills for Life program to the Mornington Peninsula. Sessions will be held 10am-4pm at Bentons Square Community Centre, 145 Bentons Rd, Mornington. Visits are by appointment only.

Red Cross says wills are one of the most important documents we sign in our lifetime. They are the only way to be certain our possessions and assets go to the people and charities we care about.

Under the Wills for Life program, local solicitors are donating their time to prepare a simple will from $75 – making it a great opportunity to make or update your will.

“Writing a will is one of the most important things you will ever do in your lifetime, and yet just under half of adults do not have one,” Red Cross national bequest manager Ian Williamson said. “Most of us work hard to maximise our financial position for retirement, yet it is surprising how many fail to make a will. By not doing so, someone you don’t even know may end up controlling your estate and prized investments.”

For more information, or to make an appointment, call 1800 811 700 or email bequests@redcross.org.au

Birth ‘same for all’ RADIO 3AW caller comments suggesting Peninsula Health had different birthing suites for Aboriginal and Middle Eastern women have been denied by chief operating officer Jan Child. “No. All of Frankston Hospital’s birthing units are available to all women,” she said.

THE recent $40 million sale of 94-hectares of land earmarked for a commercial and retail precinct at Martha Cove, Safety Beach, has breathed new life into the waterfront development 15 years after it was proposed.

The Martha Cove sales office staffers say the dream of a thriving waterfront estate with direct bay access is now a reality.

The $650 million development was envisaged to encompass multiple housing developments, marina berths and a commercial project to draw residents and tourists to the peninsula.

However, the global financial crisis (GFC) took its toll in 2008 with sales

attending accidents involving young people, the trauma of telling families and friends that their loved one has been killed or injured, and the responsibility that drivers have in ensuring the safety of their passengers, other road users and themselves.

Later, surviving victims and relatives of road accidents tell of the lifelong effect of road trauma.

“We believe that if this program saves one life then we have achieved our goal,” Ms Last said. “We want young people to drive safely and responsibly but, more importantly, to Drive 4 Life.

“The program is very thought provoking and designed to open up many avenues of follow-up work within the curriculum. It is especially relevant to two areas of the Victorian Essential Learning Standard in Health and Physical Education at Level 6 and driver education programs.”

AROUND 2000 students from 22 schools will attend three Teenagers Road Accident Group presentations at the Peninsula Community Theatre this month. Victoria Police Assistant Commissioner Robert Hill will be guest speaker on Tuesday 28 July.

The first, on Monday 15 June, will host eight schools and 616 students; the next day (Tuesday) eight schools and 795 students and the third, on Tuesday 28 July, six schools and 589 students.

The message could save their lives.

Project manager Cindy Last said TRAG’s innovative program gives the students an insight into the dangers of modern driving.

Speakers consist of CFA, ambulance and police members, and those who have first-hand experience with road trauma. “Our goal is to raise the awareness of young adults as to their responsibilities when they get behind the wheel of a motor vehicle,” she said.

TRAG’s 45-minute presentation targets students in Years 10, 11 and 12.

A three-minute video places them at the scene of several serious accidents on the Mornington Peninsula.

An ambulance officer - usually the first to arrive at an accident scene - details the type of devastation he encounters. A CFA firefighter then describes spending sometimes hours cutting open twisted wrecks to release seriously injured victims. A police officer speaks about the ordeal of

LETTERS Nature’s way I was interested in Jenny Warf’s thoughtful article “Portsea erosion: laws of nature ignored” (The News 2/6/15) which brought out the continuing effects of changing the coastline with fixed structures.

Perhaps Jenny could write another article on what measures she proposes other than general comments of “no more projects that attempt to rearrange and push back against nature”.

From my limited experience nature will continue to erode coastlines and at times bring sand back, moving the coastline, while we establish structures to try and stabilise the coastline.

Some early records suggest the Eastern Sister at the 1803 Collins settlement site [Sorrento] has moved back at least 10 metres since 1803 and the cliff certainly shows a collapse of what was once a walkway to a boat shed in later times.

The large stone toe protection and Hume crib walling under what was the site of the previous visitors centre building seems to have stopped further collapse at that area but, as Jenny points out, you can’t beat nature in the long term. Keith Murley, Blairgowrie

Future planning A 2013 study shows that Rosebud and Keilor East have the highest number of persons aged 85 and above in the greater Melbourne region. When the findings of this study were extrapolated out to 2031, Rosebud remained in the top group, with Dromana and the other southern peninsula locations showing significant increases in the numbers of our most senior of citizens.

It then perhaps begs the following question of our councillors: Do we really need to have a warm water splash-about pool constructed within

the privately-owned and operated southern peninsula aquatic centre premises, or should the shire be examining the need for a professionally operated hydrotherapy centre?

If council considered favourably the latter option, then could we not envisage a scenario whereby medical practitioners would provide referrals for their patients to attend the hydrotherapy centre and, as importantly, with such services potentially being capable of rebates under medical health schemes?

A warm water pool that is colocated within an hydrotherapy centre would add to the suit of potential health benefits. However, having regard to the council’s recent request for a report on the subject, it should not be the driver for such an investment.

Let’s trust that our councillors can put aside populist politics for just a moment and devote their energies to examining and understanding what social infrastructure the shire’s population actually needs, and not wasting time and money looking at what they think would be a nice to have outcome.

Stuart Allen, Dromana

History lesson WITH the Hastings container port proposal back in the news via the Andrews government’s plans to privatise the Port of Melbourne, thereby possibly negating the need for a port at Hastings (“Port lease plans puts Hastings back 50 years”, The News 2/6/15), I thought it most relevant to reflect on the words of naval surgeon George Bass, the indomitable discoverer of Western Port.

His diary describes the bay thus:  “mud abounds so much that the greater part of the points, (on the land), are not approachable except towards the top of high water, and then at the risk of having your boat left

until the next tide, for the mud runs out far and flat, so soft, that there is no walking the boat over it”.  If Western Port had so much mud in it in 1798, perhaps those that still want to build the port (such as Hastings MP Neale Burgess) can explain how over 200 years later, it became a “natural deep water port”.  It’s worth noting that there are several references in books on this subject to the fact Bass did get up as far as Hastings, so his comments are very appropriate.

A modern statistic is also most relevant. Currently, Port Phillip hosts some 3000 ships a year and the same figure has been projected for “Wastings” (build Hastings and Western Port will be “Wasted), yet at low tide Western Port has 25 per cent of the surface area of Port Phillip. Port proponents may also care to explain how they ever expected to get all these vessels in without dredging our beautiful bay to death.

We poor souls on this side of the bay, who rely heavily on the combined several thousand existing jobs and $1.1 billion a year economic input from tourism and recreational fishing, never seem to get much of a go in the minds of those who want to build “Wastings”.

Kevin Chambers, The Gurdies

Port victory HASTINGS MP Neale Burgess (“Port lease plan puts Hastings back 50 years”, The News 2/6/15) has described the state government’s decision to halt plans for a container port near Hastings as a “disaster for Western Port”. On the contrary, the mega-port plans were the biggest disaster facing our bay since Premier Bolte’s multi-industrialisation plans in the 1970s. For those of us who campaigned against the mega-port, this

decision by the new Labor government is a victory for common sense and for those who have a vision for a sustainable future for Western Port.

The container port plans (if realised) would have destroyed the ecological and recreational values of the bay which we all love and put an end to an estimated 5000 jobs (Bass Coast Shire estimate) which are dependent on tourism, boating and fishing. In return, it would have generated a few dozen port jobs, at best – modern ports are mostly automated.

Granted, the construction would have generated several hundred jobs, mostly for specialised contractors from outside of Western Port. In addition, the mega-port would have clogged up our bay with 3000 gigantic ships a year, disrupting French Island ferry services and putting an end to the Hastings Yacht Club, fishing and boating in the western arm of the bay.

In addition. the mega-port would have resulted in 4000 trucks a day on the Western Port Highway – already bumper-to-bumper in rush hour – as well as demolishing hundreds of homes in South Yarra and Armadale to make way for a dedicated freight rail line to the west side of Melbourne.

This was never mentioned by politicians pushing for the port because they knew it was just never going to happen.

As Dr Hermione Parsons from Victoria University said, “boys have dreams of … my port is bigger than your port.” This was a politician’s dream, which made no economic sense - as the Victoria University study has clearly shown - that was going to destroy the most precious gift we have, a wonderfully diverse and vibrant wetland of international importance on the doorstep of a major city. The world-recognised value of our natural treasure, Western Port, will only increase as rapid urbanisation

continues to gobble up our green spaces and marine pollution continues to destroy the waters of Port Phillip (see “The bay is dying” by Tim Flannery on the WPPC Website).

Chris Chandler, French Island Port Stoppers (FIPS)

Super interest TO make it patently clear: the interest payments on the $10.45 million debt for [Mornington Peninsula Shire’s] super contribution over 10 years would be an additional $2,477,238.07 interest cost relative to the original motion of paying the loan off over three years (“Light falls on tenders in a dark, not stormy, night”, Council Watch, The News 19/5/15).

This additional interest would have, for 10 years, burdened Mornington Peninsula Shire $247,723.80 a year in additional fixed costs.

I cannot see how this would have, even slightly, complied with provisions of the Local Government Act relative to financial responsibility.

From the public record, those who voted (by division) for the 10-year pay off were: “Cr. Dixon, Cr. Shaw, Cr. Garnock, Cr. Gibb and Cr. Celi”.

John Cain, McCrae

Charities beware THE inquiry on the tax free status of many green and environmental groups is a further step towards the silencing of very real concerns in the community about the unchecked wholesale attacks on our biosphere by the vested interests of big money.

Of course we wouldn't expect anything else from “Climate change is crap Tony” and his government.

I wonder if the charities who dare to speak out about our treatment of refugees are next in line.

Rupert Steiner, Balnarring

Couple leads the way HUSBAND and wife team Joe and Janine Hart have been elected president and vice-president of the Mornington Peninsula branch of the Disabled Surfers’ Association.

The couple was instrumental in forming the branch in 2010 and has been involved in planning and holding a series of surfing “events” for disabled surfers at Point Leo. The branch’s first Let’s Go Surfing “experience” was at Point Leo Beach on Saturday 17 March 2012.

Also elected to the branch’s committee at the Tuesday 26 May annual meeting were treasurer, Rebecca Lipsett; assistant treasurer, Jade Lipsett; secretary, Bill Hallett; and assistant secretary, Jenny Angliss-Goodall. Angus Tendall is honourary vice-president.

The DSA is a non for profit and recognised benevolent organisation that has been operating for more than 25 years throughout Australia.

While planning two more surf days for the disabled next year, the Mornington Peninsula branch is working on building a boardwalk for easier access to Point Leo beach, making its widewheeled wheelchairs available to the public and holding two surf contests.

Details: disabledsurfers.org/vic/morning-peninsula-branch

Beach duty: Blue rash vests are worn by the hundreds of volunteers who turned up to help at the Disablked Surfers Association’s Mornington Peninsula branch’sbeach day at Point Leo in March. With about 100 disabled surfers to look after, the teams are colour-coded to ensure all goes to plan.

Have a say on Coolart speed PUBLIC comment is being sought on a proposed speed reduction in Coolart Rd, between Baxter and Balnarring.

VicRoads is assessing a cut in speeds from 90kph to 80kph as “speed is a big contributing factor to the safety along this road”.

It says the possible reduction is supported by Victoria Police and Mornington Peninsula Shire.

The 17.4 kilometre stretch of rural road between Frankston-Flinders Rd, Baxter and FrankstonFlinders Rd, Balnarring has “a significant crash history”, VicRoads says.

In the five years from January 2010 to December 2014 it was the scene of 32 crashes in which people sustained injuries - including three fatalities.

Present road safety improvements along Coolart Rd include a number of roundabouts, the most recent at Bittern-Dromana Rd. A roundabout is being built at Hodgins Rd, Hastings.

VicRoads says a speed reduction would significantly improve safety along the road while only adding about 90 seconds travel time.

It says a speed reduction is the most effective short-term measure to improve safety, but that it will gauge the need for further infrastructure improvements in future.

VicRoads is seeking community feedback through a survey, which it says should take about five minutes to complete. The survey will close 5pm, 7 June.

See mornpen.vic.gov.au and search for ‘Coolart Road Speed Limit Reduction Survey’.

Hard copies of the survey will also be available from the Mornington Peninsula Shire Customer Service counter.

Safety concerns: Speed limits are under review in Coolart Rd from Baxter to Balnarring.

Club out to lunch for 21st anniversary MORNINGTON VIEW Club, which supports The Smith Family’s efforts to help disadvantaged children, holds its lunch meetings on the fourth Friday of each month 11am-midday at Mornington Golf Club.

The club’s next lunch on Friday 26 June will mark its 21st anniversary.

The lunch theme is "black and white and sparkly".

Mornington News 9 June 2015

Shed workers: Among the people behind the planned Mt Eliza men’s shed are, from left, neighbourhood house president Don Reeves, Mt Eliza Rotary Club’s community services director Linda Morris, and Mt Eliza Country Club president Ian Leslie.

Opening close for men’s shed THE establishment of a men’s shed in Mt Eliza is a step closer following a $1500 donation from Mt Eliza Rotary Club.

The shed is a partnership project between Mt Eliza Neighbourhood House and the Mt Eliza Country Club, which has offered the use of a garage which has been wired for use as a men’s shed.

Neighbourhood house president Dr Don Reeves predicted that “from little things big things grow”.

While progress to get the men’s shed up and running had been slow a planned working bee “will see the shed up and running”.

“We are hopeful that other local groups will throw their weight behind us to ensure this men’s health initiative thrives. It is a local do Mt

Eliza Rotary member Linda Morris said the club intended to be a strong supporter of the local shed.

The Mt Eliza men’s shed intends to work with both local organisations and other sheds to offer a varied program aimed at improving men’s health and well-being.

Dr Reeves said the shed differed from others on the Mornington Peninsula as it was on private property “so no help can be assured from the shire”.

“But this project is so important to men’s health and well-being that we are determined to do it ourselves for men in Mt Eliza.”

For more information about the Mt Eliza men’s shed call Dr Don Reeves on 0402 457 938.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Draft reinforcements needed Compiled by Melissa Walsh

MR S S. Price, dentist of Melbourne,

will visit Frankston for the convenience of patients on Sunday, June 13th, and may be seen at Garrood’s Prince of Wales Hotel. *** A mistake was made in last issue in reference to the raffle conducted by Mrs Rimmer. The amount received should be 8s 1d not 18s 1d as stated. *** SUBSCRIBERS for the raffle for the Eiderdown Quilt given by business people of Frankston are notified that the raffle will be drawn in the Frankston Mechanics’ Institute on Saturday evening, 12th June, at 8 o’clock. *** THE first of a series of special entertainments by the Somerville Musical and Comedy Company will take place in the Somerville Hall on Saturday, June 11th, at 8 p.m, A new feature in the programme will be the inclusion of a couple of sparkling comedies. Admission will be one shilling, club members sixpence. A bumper house will no doubt, as usual, greet the company. *** AT the meeting of the Cranbourne Shire Council held on Saturday two petitions were received from residents of Langwarrin asking that the name of Langwarrin township be changed to Carmona, and also a letter from Cr Lloyd (who was unable to be present) asking that the question be deferred for a month.

Messrs Clark and Berry spoke in favor of the change of names, and after a good deal of discussion the matter was deferred for further consideration. *** THE winning number in the Art Union promoted by Mrs Lewis and Miss Trenowth for the beautiful piece of English point lace in aid of the Belgian Fund was 26, and was held by Miss McGibbon, of Melbourne. The sum realised was £3 13s.

This amount in addition to £17 6s 6d already donated by Mrs Lewis and Miss Trenowth, makes up the handsome sum of £20 19s 6d’as the proceeds of the Continental Fete and art unions recently held at ‘Balmoral’ by these ladies in aid of the Fund. *** A very pleasant evening was spent at the local Mechanics’ hall on Saturday night last, when, at the invitation of members of the Mitre Camp a large number of young folk turned up to enjoy themselves.

The hall was nicely decorated and each one seemed bent on making the other happy. The musical items were excellent and very much appreciated.

For the majority dancing was the chief of amusement. Everything was done heartily, and the result was a most enjoyable evening. *** A miniature rifle club will shortly be formed at Mornington Junction, under the auspices and patronage of the local progress association, and a range erected on or near the Town Hall site. All

residents of the district over the age of 16 years are eligible as members, and will receive instruction gratis, also a hearty welcome.

The amount of annual subscription will not exceed 2s 6d and may be fixed as low as 1s.

It is the duty of every youth and man not gone to the front, to make himself proficient in the use of the rifle. Intending members should give in their names at once. *** ST. Paul’s Club, Frankston, is holding a social on Tuesday evening next at 8 p.m. A farce, ‘Box, and Cox,’ will be staged, and a dramatic item ‘The Open Gate’.

The farce is a most amusing one, about the best this club has yet staged.

Other items will be given by Mr Cowan, who will give instrumental items accompanied by his sister. Mr Walter Cain, Miss Pearl McLean and others will help in the programme.

During the evening farewell will be said to Miss Myra Picking, who has been an active member of the club from the start, and a presentation will be made to her. Those who wish to subscribe should leave their money with Miss Reynolds or the Vicar. *** MR P. Dial is at present laid aside by an attack of his old complaint, asthma.

His friends all wish him a speedy recovery. *** MEMBERS are reminded that Wednesday evening next is the

meeting of the Frankston Progress Association. A public meeting will be held on Thursday evening next in the Mechanics’ Institute, Frankston, to devise some means of augmenting the local Red Cross Fund. A full attendance is requested. *** THE secretary of the Frankston Club wishes to acknowledge with thanks the following donations to wards the club’s funds: Langwarrin Football Club £1 1s, Mr Harley 10s 6d, and Mr Hartland 5s. *** MESSRS Alex Scott and Co will hold a special sale of 2000 sheep at the Tanti yards, on Wednesday next.

The sheep are in good condition, and the auctioneers can recommend them in every confidence. They are for absolute sale. *** THE 35th list of names of Australians killed and wounded has been issued.

Amongst the number wounded are: Privates S. G. Foster and C. C Stone, of Mornington, W. Fletham, Somerville, and D. Nicholson, Pearcedale.

We have been requested to bring under the notice of those who have any journals or other reading matter that they are willing to donate, that there is a large number of our soldiers invalided at Langwarrin, who find the time hangs very heavily on their hands, and would be very thankful to wile away the period of their convalescence by reading.

Any parcel may be sent through Dr

Maxwell or direct to Major Lloyd at the Camp, Langwarrin. *** RECRUITING FOR AUSTRALIAN IMPERIAL FORCE. Recruiting has shown a marked falling off lately. Although no new units may at present be under organization, it is vitally important that there should be no shortage of recruits for reinforcements. There may be some idea abroad that enlistment for reinforcements is not so necessary nor nearly so important as enlistment for a definite unit.

This is quite incorrect. It is far more necessary that reinforcements be provided at present than new units.

Reinforcements are urgently required to maintain units at the front at their normal strength. Men be forthcoming without delay to replace those fallen and to support and strengthen the gallant Australians fighting in Gallipoli.

Men enlisted for reinforcements must have at least three months training before embarkation.

Our draft of reinforcements is at present nearly 2,000 short of requirements, To maintain units now at the front Australia is pledged to provide each month 5,300 soldiers, the requirements in each State monthly being as follows: Queensland 700, New South Wales 1700, Victoria 1700, South Australia 500, Western Australia 500, Tasmania 200.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

Islands in the Soda Stream

By Stuart McCullough RESISTANCE is futile after all. In a surprisingly short space of time, we have officially transformed from inner city hipsters to regular everyday suburb-dwellers. Not that it was our idea. In fact, our journey began after we received a letter through the mail informing us that we were no longer cool enough to occupy the enclaves of the inner city and would need to leave.

To say that I was a little hurt is something of a catastrophic understatement.

According to the letter, we needed to make way for a couple in their twenties whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve never held a real job but own an Internet start up and work in amateur theatre. Naturally, I resisted, and pleaded our case by pointing out that after many unsuccessful attempts I had finally succeeded in growing a beard, but it was to no avail. Apparently, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not enough just to be able to grow facial hair. You need to be able to groom it to an appropriate standard also. As is the hipster way, this verdict was communicated to me in a tone that was one part sarcasm, two parts irony with the balance made up of general obnoxiousness.

So after more than a decade, we left the inner city environment of Elwood behind and headed ten minutes down the road to Ormond. In physical terms, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quite a short journey. But, in truth, we were doing so much more than just changing postcodes. We were changing our way of life. In fact, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d go so far that this was a monumental act of concession. One that admitted we were no longer young, hip urban professionals who spent evenings at po-

etry slams whilst watching films with subtitles and making bespoke pottery.

(Preferably all at once.) No sir.

Fact is, we have become the kind of people who, after a hard dayâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s work, collapse on the couch and binge watch Game of Thrones whilst sorting out some online grocery shopping. To some, this will sound irretrievably lame. But to others, what I have just described sounds like nothing short of heaven on a stick. Times change. People too.

At first, I was resentful. But given a

few weeks to reflect, I see things differently. After all, who was I trying to kid? I am not and can never be a hipster. Thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mostly because I can still recall a time before hipsters roamed the earth. Back then, the evolved modern man was referred to as a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sensitive new age guyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or, if you prefer, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;SNAGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. This was all well and dandy until a new generation of would-be sensitive new age guys completely turned the tables on us by rejecting the term â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;SNAGâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; on the grounds that it offended their vegetarian principles.

It was, frankly, a masterstroke. One that instantly made their predecessors look like meat eating, knuckle dragging Neanderthals. Part of me longs to go back to a time when hipsters wouldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have been called hipsters at all and, instead, were still labelled something more along the lines of â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;beardo â&#x20AC;&#x201C; weirdoesâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; or, more simply, â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;the unemployedâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. But itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time to concede defeat and make a small but, I feel, symbolic retreat. So long, inner city. Hello suburbia.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taken me some time to get used to it but there are some obvious positives. For starters, we are now a good distance from a major road. This means we no longer have to endure drunken nitwits staggering past our front door at three in the morning and deciding to push the intercom buzzer for a bit of a laugh. Those fools are unlikely to ever wobble their way out this far. Things at our new place are quieter, too. Granted, thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a neighbour over the back who likes nothing more than to crank up some pretty lamentable music on a Friday evening, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s all over by nine oâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;clock. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re unlikely to complain.

We now have a lawn. This means that, at some point, I will need to mow it. When I was kid, I used to mow the lawn all the time. But at Tyabb, the lawn was about an acre in size and all mowing was done on a ride-on. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not sure Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll be able to justify that kind of machinery for an area the size of a car parking space. But, truth be told, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m looking forward to mowing the lawn.

If nothing else, I can finally make my own crop circles. We also have a shed.

Ultimately, this is where Kate will set up her workbench. I, however, made the somewhat amateur mistake of telling people not only that we had a shed but that it was â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;for Kateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;. This, I would later learn, resulted in a misunderstanding where various relatives believed that my wife would be living in the shed, leaving the house to me.

No wonder they were looking at me funny.

Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll admit that it kind of snuck up on me. Without really trying, in a single week, I went to Bunnings, IKEA and Southland. Bunnings may be a great place to get rubber stoppers for chair legs or a sausage, but itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a long way from a poetry slam. So be it. Going to see an obscure indie-rock band play far too loud and way too late is fine for some people, but IKEA has meatballs.

Indie rock canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t compete with meatballs. There was a time when spending the evening at Southland is something I would only do at gunpoint, but now it seems like a night out. Besides, we needed appliances.

We are now the proud owners of a Soda Stream. We use to make mineral water. In fact, Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d almost go so far as to say that the results are bespoke. As we made our way to the car park and prepared to head back to our quiet suburban street, I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t say I missed amateur theatre or subtitles. In fact, I can honestly say that I felt something close to content. Naturally, I have marked this change in situation in the only way possible under the circumstances â&#x20AC;&#x201C; by shaving off my beard. So long inner city. It was nice knowing you. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Music  Arts  Food THE RAT PACK ARE HEADING TO AUSTRALIA Direct from Las Vegas and following a sold out tour of the US and the UK, ‘The Rat Pack’ will be making their way to Australia in June. ‘Frank’ (David deCosta), ‘Dean’ (Johnny Edwards) and ‘Sammy’ (Nicholas Brooks) are back in town and will be lighting up stages across the country as they bring back the grand old days of those classic crooner hits that we all know and love.

Johnny Edwards brings the magic and charm of Dean Martin back to the stage. With that chiselled smile, charming ways and funny lines, Dean Martin is remembered as the King of Cool and America’s favourite leading man of the 50s. Expect to hear some of his great songs including Volare, Everybody Loves Somebody and That’s Amore.

David deCosta encapsulates the enigmatic Frank Sinatra. As the all-American iconic performer, Frank Sinatra, David brings to life some of the biggest songs ever recorded and forever linked to the memory of Frankie – including My Way, New York New York, Come Fly With Me and so many more.

Nicholas Brooks is the suave Sammy Davis Jr. Fondly remembered for his humour and impressions, Sammy Davis Jr was first and foremost a dancer and performer and had a long and envious career in clubs and theatres in Vegas and New York. Expect to hear some of Sammy’s big hits including Mr Candy Man, That Old Black Magic and Mr Bojangles.

Together they come together on stage as The Rat Pack. Delivering the timeless songs that we all love and sharing some funny stories and gags, this is one show that should not be missed.

Don’t miss The Rat Pack as they tour across Australia.

The Rat Pack will play at the Frankston Arts Centre on Thursday 25 June. Call 9784 1060 for tickets.

scoreboard Demons come from behind to win NEPEAN LEAGUE

By Toe Punt RYE came from 17 points down at three quarter time to beat Sorrento by the smallest of margins in Nepean League football on Saturday.

In front of a massive crowd that pushed beyond 3000 people, Toby Woodford copped a head high tackle with less than a minute on the clock and went back and kicked the goal from 20 metres out to seal the win for Rye 12.12 (84) to Sorrento 11.17 (83).

Rye then pushed numbers behind the football and made it an arm wrestle in the tense final moments of the game.

It was the second time in as many weeks that Sorrento has been overrun in the final term. Crib Point inflicted the same pain on the Sharks last week.

A jubilant Rye coach Josh Moore, a former Sorrento premiership player, revealed his team went into the match with some set plans they were able to execute.

“We thought we were close enough at three quarter time and you could sense a bit of a momentum shift at that stage,” he said.

“We were well aware of what Crib had done the week before and we were still full of running.

“It was a tight, high intensity game of footy. I think both sides played a

really good brand of footy and gave the supporters value for money.

“There was nothing in the match all day. Steve Ryan (the runner) came out to me in red time and told me that there was less than a minute left. At that stage we were five points down.

Then Woodford put us in front.”

Former Hawthorn ruckman Simon Taylor was the difference between the sides in the end.

“Squizzy was superb for us over four quarters but he really stood up and showed enormous leadership in that last quarter. He willed us over the line,” Moore said.

“Matt Dunn was also great on Leigh Poholke. ‘Polk’ kicked three goals in the first quarter and you wonder whether you should make a move, however, I had faith and he kept him goalless for the remainder of the match.”

Despite the win and being equal top on the ladder, Rye isn’t getting ahead of themselves.

“We set ourselves some short term goals and we are ticking all of those boxes off at this stage. We’ll set some more short term goals and start on them. It’s not a sprint,” Moore said.

League ‘misled’ Somerville, results in doubt

By Toe Punt THE MPNFL-appointed Independent Tribunal handed down its Somerville Players Points System verdict last Thursday night as promised, but the league failed to pass that information onto clubs.

The panel members - Geoff Dempster (Northern Football League Board Member, former member of the AFL Community Football Board), Bob Beazley (MPNFL PPS Implementation Working Party member) and Andrew Swales (Independent Tribunal Chairman) met as communicated with Nepean League clubs on Thursday night.

At this meeting, the tribunal determined that Somerville coach David Hirst was a two point player,

not a one point player.

It is understood that the league had advised Somerville Football Club in writing on two separate occasions in December 2014 and February this year - confirming Hirst was a one point player.

It is believed that communication came from former administrator Sue Jones and MPNFL general manager Jeff Jones.

As a result of the communication, Somerville has been playing Hirst as a one point player.

When Nepean League clubs called into league headquarters and made telephone calls to league offices on Friday, they were told that the tribunal had met but had not made its ruling.

However, a source close to the

MPNFL informed The News on Friday that the decision was made and Hirst was a two point player.

The source also said that the Independent Tribunal was asked not to communicate with the media on the matter.

With Hirst determined as a twopoint player, it means Somerville played with 40 points in its matches against Sorrento and Hastings. The PPS cap is 39 points.

Sorrento and Hastings now have the option to appeal the result of those game, which both lost.

Somerville is also expected to exercise its options of legal action, given they were given written confirmation that Hirst was a one point player.

This communication had significant impacts on their recruiting strategy.

Already, Somerville is forced to play key recruits in the reserves, given they go over the PPS. The latest ruling means that an additional recruit is forced to play reserves.

A Somerville source said that the league’s inability to know their own rules was going to have a significant impact on their club.

“We have to sit down with players now and talk through what options we and they have,” the source said.

The MPNFL told clubs they would inform them of the tribunal’s decision this Friday, eight days after they made their decision.

Gulls fight from ‘nowhere’ to win a thriller PENINSULA LEAGUE

By Toe Punt CHELSEA came back from nowhere to record a thrilling two-point victory against Langwarrin on Saturday in Peninsula League Football.

Looking down the barrel midway through the last quarter and trailing by three goals, Chelsea kicked five unanswered goals to wrestle back the lead and open-up a 10-point lead at the 27-minute mark of the quarter.

Hudson Thomas, who finished the game with four goals for the Gulls and was arguably one of the best players on the ground, put his side in front before Jayden Attard extended the lead with five minutes left in the game.

Langwarrin then dominated the last five minutes of the game, only to kick 1.2 and go down 16.17 (113) to 18.7 (115).

Langwarrin went into the game without Rikki Johnston for personal reasons while the coach, Gavin Artico, was in Fiji on a family holiday. It was a massive loss for the Kangas, who less than a month ago beat Frankston YCW. Langwarrin went from an opportu-

nity to be sitting comfortably in third place to dropping out of the five. They gave away a handful of 50m penalties in the painful loss.

Andrew Johnson played his first game for the season in the firsts for Langwarrin and finished with five goals while Blake Harkness was his team’s best player for the second week in a row.

Chelsea is now a game and a half outside of the top five and coach Brent Guerra believes he’s team is a chance to grab a finals spot.

“We were very competitive against Mornington and Mt Eliza but let ourselves down in one quarter of footy,” Guerra said.

“Our boys are still learning the art of winning and Saturday’s fighting victory will hold them in good stead for the rest of the year.

“The art now is not to get ahead of ourselves. We play Karingal this week and we know they aren’t travelling as well as they’d like. We have Pines after that.

“It would be fantastic for the group to win a few in a row. That’s our aim.

Work hard on the track, stay focussed, keep doing the things we know we do well and the results will look after themselves,” Guerra said.

Mt Eliza full forward Justin Van Unen booted 12 goals in his side’s 25.16 (166) to 5.3 (33) victory against Karingal.

The Redlegs booted 10 goals in a blistering second quarter with Matt Lillie (three goals) playing extremely well in attack and through the ruck and Dave Barton continuing his outstanding season. Grant Goodall was superb in the ruck for the Bulls and Luke Van Raay worked tirelessly.

Mornington stuck its nose in front of Frankston YCW early in its home ground clash and was able to maintain that buffer for the rest of the match.

In a low scoring game, the Doggies held on to win 10.5 (65) to 5.13 (43).

Mornington ruckman Michael Gay was the best player on the ground, dominating the ruck, while Dale Nolan finished with four goals and Ben Wells saw a heap of the footy.

Tony Lester and Kyle Hutchison were the best of the Stonecats.

MPNFL ‘blatantly incompetent’: club president MPNFL clubs should be moving as quickly as possible to take control of their own destiny, according to the man who led the charge for Casey Cardinia Football League to defect from the MPNFL two years ago.

Narre Warren Football Club president and South East Football Netball League board member, Kahl Heinze, said if clubs wanted a future and to remain relevant in local football in their community, they needed to take action and break ties with the MPNFL immediately.

Heinze said the management of the league from a board and administration perspective was “blatantly incompetent”.

“These guys that run the league, seriously, are incompetent,” Heinze said.

“It’s astounding (to hear what’s going on the with the Player Points System debacle) but to be honest, it doesn’t surprise me in the slightest.

“They (the board and administration) are simply there for self-preservation.

They are there so they can swan around in their league shirts and get paid to do so.

“What I’m continuing to hear about the management of the MPNFL solidifies that what we have done is the best thing we could have done for the

future of our game.

“It was clear to us, as Casey Cardinia clubs, that as a service provider, the league just wasn’t giving us value for money. In fact, they were costing us enormous amounts of money – money clubs can’t afford to be losing.

“The MPNFL’s sole responsibility is to service the clubs and provide us with a strategic direction – we never did receive either of them, ever.

“Their responsibility is not to ignore clubs and simply hand out $50 fines for a player wearing black shorts instead of white shorts,” Heinze said.

South East Football Netball League is on track to show an operating surplus of between $50,000 to $100,000 in its first year.

“That’s a $150,000 to $200,000 turnaround for us.

“That’s more money, on the back of the clubs receiving better service and resources than they have ever experienced before. Every senior game is video recorded and provided immediately to the clubs after the game on USB. We have negotiated far better deals across a number of areas that have added enormous value,” Heinze said.

“With the MPNFL we had no focus, no direction, no strategic plan for the future, no growth plan, no financial

projections, no sponsorship plan – there was nothing.

“When we asked the questions regarding these fundamentals and even went down the path of audits, we were shut down.

“As a group of Casey Cardinia League presidents, we’d had enough.

“AFL South East provided us with an opportunity that we had never had in the past – some independent advice and a resource that we were able to work with.

“We’d never really had that in the past and after meeting with AFL South East General Manager Jeremy Bourke, who provided us with our options, it became a very obvious decision for us.

“Twelve months later and we have a wonderful board made up of experts in their field – legal, finance, community leaders, and football people.

“Together we are working on strategic plans. We are working with external consultants provided by AFL South East to ensure we are best practice in our planning and decision making.

“Our sole motivation is benefit to the clubs.

“The MPNFL are simply worried about their own backyard – surviving and keeping their jobs.

“Every decision we make is focused

on the clubs – financial, growth, sustainability,” Heinze said.

There is little question that MPNFL clubs have concerns about how their league will be managed if they choose to make a move.

Of the 80 senior leagues in Victoria, 75 of them are being regionally run with the support of the AFL. The MPNFL is one of the five that is independent.

Heinze said his league was “living, breathing proof of the benefits that come with being regionally managed”.

“The MPNFL tried to scare and worry us and try and highlight that we couldn’t do without them. They even kept information from us about the AFL that would have been of enormous benefit for us to know about and understand.

“The AFL South East relationship has been nothing less than harmonious.

They add to our value. It reduces our costs, our risks and provides best practice. We don’t have cash tied up into their losses.

“Like any president or secretary, I spend around 40 hours working for my club each week. I can tell you straight up, I am giving less time now, not more.

“I was really busy with helping to set up the new league from November to

January but I have a lot more time now.

“I get asked all the time ‘how do you cope?’ – I say ‘better than I ever did before’.

“It’s amazing to have a full and parttime administrator that actually runs the league.

“There has been zero impact on the clubs – absolutely zero.

“Finally, we are in charge of our own destiny. The hard work we are doing at club level is not being wasted or falling on deaf ears.

“For the MPNFL, the clubs are a thorn in their side. They don’t want to know about them or their issues. They simply want their money to keep them all in jobs.

“The management of the league should be transparent – not ruling with an iron fist.

“We are providing direction, pathways, viability and sustainability – that’s all a club wants from their league.

“My advice to the MPNFL Clubs is to refuse to put up with the now. Get together independently, talk to AFL South East and move immediately to a regional structure.

“Like us, they’ll never look back,” Heinze said.

Tough Hilux is Australia’s best seller TOYOTA’S HiLux was Australia’s best-selling vehicle in May as the rugged workhorse marked a significant milestone by passing 850,000 sales in this country.

Corolla also maintained its overall lead as Australia’s best-selling car in 2015 and now has a margin of almost 1,300 sales over its closest rival.

Continued popularity of HiLux and Corolla – the country’s most popular ute and passenger car – lifted Toyota to a total of more than 15,900 sales last month.

The market leader’s May tally was 82.7 per cent higher than any other brand and lifted Toyota to a 2015 total of more than 80,000 sales – a lead of more than 35,000 vehicles over its nearest competitor.

Toyota’s May total included 3,173 HiLux single, extra and double cabs – almost 300 sales ahead of any other vehicle in the market.

It is the 14th time HiLux has topped the monthly sales charts – and HiLux remains the only vehicle of its type to have achieved that distinction.

Early in the month, Toyota registered its 850,000th Australian HiLux customer since the

nameplate was born in 1968. The grand total now includes more than 478,800 HiLux 4x4 variants and 373,500 in 4x2 guise.

Other segment leaders for Toyota in May were Camry following the introduction of an upgraded range with bold new styling, the 86 sports car, LandCruiser 200, HiAce van and HiAce bus. LandCruiser Prado and Kluger were the top selling large SUVs. Toyota Australia’s executive director sales and marketing Tony Cramb said HiLux is a global and Australian success story with more than 16 million sold around the world.

“HiLux has been a long-time favourite in Australia with 850,000 sales and is now more popular than ever as confirmed by its best-selling status last month,” Mr Cramb said.

“Renowned for its ‘unbreakable’ tag, HiLux has delivered the size, capabilities and performance demanded by customers for more than 47 years,” Mr Cramb said.

“The current model line-up continues to outperform its rivals, which gives Toyota a great launching pad for introducing an all-new HiLux to the market later this year,” he said.
