Swimming, and running, into Classic history FOR a brief moment in time on Saturday, as swimmers leapt into the water for the 36th Portsea Ocean Swim Classic, the world’s pandemic woes were forgotten. Masks were off, at least in the water, and perfect conditions and the thrill of the competition dominated conversations. About 2000 entrants flocked to Portsea to try their luck. Defending champion Jesse Coulson, from Anglesea, won the shorter 1.5 km classic with a time of 14:01, while fastest female was Torquay surf life saver Sophie Thomas with 14:20. Thomas said it was great to see a club implement so many extra precautions to enable the event to go ahead. Continued Page 3

Call for probe of shire ‘democracy’ Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE Minister for Local Government Shaun Leane has been asked to investigate events leading up to the adoption last year of amended governance rules by Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors. The Nepean Ratepayers Association has told Mr Leane that differences among shire councillors had led to “a complete breakdown in the democratic process”. It wants Mr Leane to “ascertain if this council and its executive officers have exercised sound judgement and good governance practices and are fit and proper people to continue in their respective roles”. The association has told Mr Leane that some councillors were deliberately not told about the proposed changes

until asked to adopt them at a public council meeting in November. The association alleges that the flow of information was restricted to a bloc of six councillors because their five colleagues were not supportive of the amendments, which had also been discussed by shire CEO John baker and in-house lawyer Amanda Sapolu. The proposed changes were the subject of a series of emails sent over a period of at least three weeks between the then mayor Cr Despi O’Connor, Cr Sarah Race, Mr Baker, Ms Sapolu and four other councillors (“‘No-support’ councillors left out of email loop” The News 26/10/21). Current mayor Cr Anthony Marsh was one of the six councillors included in the email “communication circle”. Cr O’Connor has taken leave of absence from Briars Ward to stand as an independent candidate for Flinders in

this year’s federal election. There are 79 municipal councils in Victoria and The News has been told that about 25 per cent of complaints lodged with Local Government Inspectorate over the past year involve Mornington Peninsula Shire councillors. The inspectorate’s 2020-21 annual report said it had received 1164 complaints during the financial year, which resulted in 55 inquiries and the issuing of 164 warnings. Although the number of complaints was nearly triple those of the previous year, none led to prosecutions. The inspectorate investigates matters relating to council operations and possible offences under the Local Government Act involving councillors, senior council officers and anyone subject to conflict of interest electoral provisions of the Local Government Act. In its letter to Mr Leane signed by

its president Colin Watson, the Nepean Ratepayers’ Association claims factions had developed between “certain councillors and members of the MPSC executive management”. “It would appear that these ‘blocks’ [sic] were developed not specifically on political preferences or alignments, but more to do with an individual’s personality.” The long letter to Mr Leane covers the election of eight first-term councillors to the 11-member council and the revelations unearthed through a freedom of information (FOI) request leading to the adoption of the amended governance rules. “Disappointingly, the correspondence obtained evidenced that Cr Race’s motion was not a last minute proposal as she had stated, but rather a well contrived, deliberate action to bypass the reasonable, accepted democratic process,” the association

stated. “Indeed, Cr Race and the mayor, Cr O’Connor had, in collaboration with MPSC chief executive officer, Mr John Baker, and the manager - legal and governance, Ms Amanda Sapolu, spent the 12 days prior to the meeting, planning and orchestrating the introduction of the proposed amendment to the governance rules that would be introduced by Cr Race. “As much as six councillors clearly displayed a complete lack of ethical judgement and personal integrity in the process that they conspired and implemented, it also raises the question as to both the roles of [Mr Baker and Ms Sapolu]. “Clearly, all the emails and associated communication concerning Cr Race’s proposed motion should have been provided to all councillors, and not just those councillors that would be supportive of the motion.”

Portsea Classic, racing on land and sea Continued from Page 1 “It was a good race and great to have that sort of speed with the tide,” she said. Entrants were grouped into 21 categories, and events included a 2.5km swim, a shorter 500m distance for juniors, and a relay. In the inaugural Portsea Bay to Surf Adventure

Run on Friday night (above), Tom McFarlane was fastest over the nine kilometre course, with Eleanor Rapper the first female home. The event at Point Nepean National Park and finishing at the Portsea Surf Life Saving Club, included a shorter 4km distance won by James Hall, 8. First female over the line was James’ older sister Sophie, 10.

Planning protection ‘a step closer’ Liz Bell liz@mpnews.com.au ADVOCATES of protecting the Mornington Peninsula’s green spaces are celebrating a significant step forward in their fight for green wedge protection. In a pre-Christmas announcement, Planning Minister Richard Wynne authorised the shire’s proposed Planning Scheme Amendment C270morn to rezone 10 parcels of land - seven of which are outside the urban growth boundary - from special use to green wedge or public conservation and resource zone. A council statement said the rezoning aimed to protect the shire’s highly valued open spaces from development, resolve anomalies in the planning scheme, and ensure the zoning of the sites “reflects their intended use and location within the green wedge”. One of the sites earmarked for protection, part of the former Ansett estate at 60-70 Kunyung Road, Mt Eliza, has been the subject of a community battle to save it from being developed into a large-scale residential aged care facility and/or retirement village. While Ryman Healthcare’s proposal failed last year after being opposed by the shire and rejected at VCAT, the fight is far from over, with Ryman now planning to win approval for a smaller development of 104 independent apart-

ments, 35 assisted living suites and 82 care beds. But Save Reg’s Wedge campaign spokesperson Leigh Eustace, also a member of the Green Wedge Coalition, said communities around the shire could be cautiously optimistic that the minister’s authorisation of the council’s rezoning amendment would result in ultimate protection for the ten sites. “This is not a given yet, there will be a couple of sites within that list of 10 that will be heavily fought for by developers, but it’s a great step,’’ he said. “There is a lot of money involved to see developers walk away from some of these, such as the proposed Portsea Golf Course development. “But we are ecstatic that the minister has seen fit to put forward this amendment, it has given communities hope, it means it can now go through a formal planning scheme amendment process.” The fight to save the 8.9-hectare Kunyung Road site has been a long one, with the shire resolving in December 2019 to seek rezoning approval from the planning minister. A clause in the planning scheme schedule (51.02) had excluded the Kunyung Road property from the core green wedge provisions, based on the property being used as an education centre when it was owned by Mount Eliza Business College. Mr Eustace said the minister refused the council’s request but invited it to

submit a planning scheme amendment for authorisation to rezone the land, which it did, along with moving to correct other planning scheme anomalies for special use properties throughout the shire. He said the amendment had been brought up in parliament by Mornington MP David Morris, but had been “sitting on the minister’s desk’’ since 3 March 2021. Last year Mr Morris said the government often bragged about protecting the green wedge, and “it is about time those words were put into action’’. Council plans to exhibit the amendment for community feedback early in 2022. Other sites that would be protected by the rezoning are: Sunnyside Beach off Sunnyside Road, Mount Eliza; 50A McGregor Avenue, Mount Martha; 60 Hearn Road, Mount Martha; 19 Tallis Drive, Mornington (Mornington Golf Course); 46 London Bridge Road, Portsea (Portsea Golf Club); 35 Sunnyside Road, Mount Eliza (Manyung Recreation Camp); 3875 Point Nepean Road (Point Nepean National Park); 74-76 Marine Parade, Shoreham (Mentone Grammar Camp); and 62 Oakbank Road, Mornington (Padua College).

Wind a blow to safe landing RECREATION Aviation Australia is investigating an incident at Tyabb Airport on Thursday afternoon, when strong wind is being blamed for blowing a light aircraft off the runway. Neither the trainee pilot nor the instructor was injured when the aircraft came off the runway on landing. A report on the incident will be made by the RVA and Peninsula Aero Club. Club president Jack Vevers said televised media reports of the incident were surprising, given the plane had already landed safely and no one was injured. The two people helped from the damaged aircraft before emergency services arrived were later checked and cleared by Ambulance Victoria. Because of a small fuel leak, members from Tyabb Fire Brigade made the area safe and remained on scene until the plane was taken away on the

back of a truck. Mr Vevers said it was unfortunate it was being portrayed as a safety incident, adding that the club had an “impeccable’’ safety record. “Our pilots are subject to being retrained every two years, and we have a great safety record,’’ he said. “It literally had landed and simply rolled off the runway a few metres by a gust of wind.” The pilot was believed to be a novice pilot completing circuit training. “I think we have a fantastic safety record,’’ Mr Vevers said. Questions have been raised over why a training session had taken place on a day of strong, gusty northeasterly winds. One Tyabb resident said the inexperienced pilot would have had trouble flying such a small plane in the “challenging” wind conditions. Liz Bell

‘Virtual fence’ on trial to separate wildlife and traffic By Liz Bell “VIRTUAL fencing” designed to stop wild animals crossing in front of vehicles is about to be trialled along a two-kilometre section of a “hot spot” road in Boneo. Mornington Peninsula Shire has been working with the community, specifically the Mornington Peninsula Wildlife Action Group and Greens Bush Association and has already bought virtual fencing for the trial. The technology uses audio and visual alarms to deter wildlife from crossing the road when vehicles are passing. It is triggered by approaching headlights and creates a virtual barrier of sound and light. Victoria Carter, of the wildlife action group, applauded the shire’s recognition of the depth of the issue of wildlife being killed on the roads. “This is great because the incident rates on the peninsula are way too high, especially in holiday times when traffic increases,” she said. Ms Carter said if the trial was successful, she would like to see virtual fencing rolled out in a number of hot spots on the peninsula. “There are some roadways, such as Baldrey’s, Purves, Browns/Jetty and

Boneo, that have very high incident rates and I’d love to see more action to bring down the number of vehicle/ wildlife accidents there,” she said. The virtual fencing – which is relatively new technology to Australia - has been used in Tasmania, where a study between 2014-2017 showed a 50 per cent drop in roadkill following the installation of the virtual fencing. Peninsula wildlife carer and the founder of Crystal Ocean Wildlife Shelter, Brenda Marmion, hailed the trial as “fantastic”. “There are way too many wildlife getting killed on our roads, and it’s getting worse,” she said. “Over Christmas I’ve had people with injured wildlife queuing at my door, there are a lot of people of the roads at the moment and they just drive too fast. “If virtual fencing can reduce the road toll for wildlife and people it will be well worth it.” The trial fencing location will be made public once residents in the surrounding area are notified and will be installed early in 2022. Its effectiveness will be monitored to determine if it should be installed permanently in high wildlife accident areas.

KATE Freeland stops to discuss the Save Flinders Pier campaign on Boneo Road Rosebud.

Moving plea to save pier FLINDERS Community Association has stepped up its Save Flinders Pier campaign over summer and is towing a mobile promotional trailer through holiday destinations along the Mornington Peninsula. The Save Flinders Pier trailer with the iconic weedy seadragon pictured on the side has already attracted public attention in Rosebud, Rye and Red Hill; with Sorrento and Portsea next on the list. Association spokesperson Charles Reis said the intention of the trailer

was to raise awareness. He said the group is encouraging holiday-makers from other parts of the peninsula to visit the Flinders pier over summer to assess its condition for themselves. “Parks Victoria is too focused on demolishing the historic pier; while most people who visit the pier agree that restoration is the best option,” Mr Reis said. “Few people realise that Flinders has the only pier along the entire southern coastline of the Mornington Peninsula, and its historic and com-

mercial contribution to the peninsula needs to be preserved.” The association is campaigning to convince Parks Victoria that the pier, dating back to 1864, is a community and maritime asset that should be restored for future generations of Victorians. The pier is home to a unique species of the weedy seadragon made famous by Sir David Attenborough and attracts divers from around the world. Liz Bell

Help us keep our Peninsula litter-free

It is important to look after your mental health during the pandemic. We have all been affected and sometimes anxiety and distress can feel overwhelming. If you or anyone you know is struggling to cope, it is important to ask for help and talk to someone about how you are feeling.

Litter is an issue every summer as more people on the Peninsula means more rubbish. Unfortunately, a nationwide shortage of truck drivers has meant we can’t do our additional household recycling collection over summer. This had led to added pressure on our public bins.

Some organisations you can get help from include: • Beyond Blue 1800 512 348 • Lifeline 13 11 14 • 1800RESPECT 1800 737 732 • Headspace 1800 650 890 • Kids Helpline 1800 551 800

We’ve scheduled more frequent collections for public bins but sometimes bins still get full. If the public rubbish bins are full, please take your litter home with you – don’t leave it next to the bin. We all have a part to play in keeping our environment litter-free.

Shire makes ‘land grab’ list Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au THE illegal appropriation and locking up of public land could be costing Mornington Peninsula Shire millions of dollars. The shire’s “encroachment task force” is compiling and list of known breaches by private property owners and also appealing to the public to provide details of other instances. Some residents Kilburn Grove, Glenisla Drive and Elmie Terrace, Mount Martha are upset about a wire fence and “land grabbing” along an access lane in the Sir Walter Burley Griffin-designed subdivision. Other breaches have been identified throughout the shire, often where private properties adjoin reserves. Cr David Gill said the appropriation of public land “are together costing the public many millions of dollars in unusable assets”. However, at Balnarring Beach, Cr Gill says public access to the beach is being jeopardised by owners lawfully fencing their property boundaries. “Sometimes fences are not just fences. They can just sometimes represent values above individual property rights,” he said.” Cr Gill said the Esplanade at Balnarring Beach was washed away in storms in the 1960s, and the road reserve - theoretically in place - was now seen as part of the beach. “Property boundaries go to the edge of the old road reserve and also look like part of the beach and foreshore,” he said.

Cabaret at Sorrento

EROSION has seen the former Esplanade become part of the beach while property boundaries lie somewhere in the sand dunes at Balnarring Beach. Picture: Supplied “Most properties on this stretch have front fences set back to an old sea wall alignment rather than put fences out to their legal boundary on the sand dunes. “Boundary fences on or next to beaches may one day prevent access along and to beaches. Is this the future we wish to allow to happen?” Cr Gill blames the state government for ignoring the effect on the coastline of rising sea levels “perhaps because it is gradual and not seen as a priority”. Cr Gill’s analysis of the situation at Balnarring Beach followed a council

decision to reject his move for it to stop a fence being built on the sand dune. He said property boundaries along the sand-covered Esplanade represented the front of properties and pointed out that fences “are not always allowed, especially front fences in some suburbs and subdivisions, so there are plenty of precedents”. “My defeated motion at the last council meeting to keep a fence off Balnarring Beach was based on net community benefit including recreational values, landscape values and

planning for sea level rise in this environmentally sensitive foreshore area; already water levels reach the property boundaries occasionally along this section of beach and deter walkers,” he said. “The compromise decision by council to alter the fence permit application so that the proposed fence is set back some metres from the actual property boundary is still a brave and forwardthinking outcome that is an issue for us all to think about.”

SORRENTO Activity Centre starts the theatre part of its annual program in February with Paul Hogan and The She-Laas in The Golden Ages Cabaret Show. The four vocalists will perform three shows over 18 and 19 February. Hogan is a singer and actor impressionist of Frank Sinatra, Frankie Valli, Bobby Darin and Dame Edna. Along with the She-Laas he will present two hours of harmonies and comedy wrapped up in costumes from the 1960s. The Sorrento Portsea Senior Citizens Centre also known as Sorrento Activity Centre is a non-profit association that takes a non-ageist approach to the membership, and everyone is included, no matter what age or abilities. Activities at Sorrento Activity Centre, 823 Melbourne Road, include: art, cards, conversational Italian, exercise, mahjong, movies, needlework, photography, singing, and theatre, groups. Hogan and the She-Laas will perform The Golden Ages Cabaret Show at 11am and 6pm Friday 18 February and 2pm Saturday 19 February.

Community groups, businesses and other organisations throughout Victoria are being asked by Environment Victoria to sign an open letter calling for action on climate change. The Western Port Climate Alliance (WPCA) is one of five groups in the state seeking signatures on letters worded specifically for their region. Carmen Bush, spokesperson for the WPCA, said the signed letters would be delivered to all federal candidates, including current MPs. The open letter calls for “faster and

fairer Australian climate action”. As well as seeking a “legislated plan” to reduce Australia’s 2030 emissions to below 2005 levels, each of the letters want reductions in the burning of coal, oil and gas (“the biggest single cause of earth’s current climate crisis”); help. For households to switch to efficient electrical appliances; and the removal of “barriers to community renewable energy projects”. But, in concentrating on Western Port, as well as urging the rejection of “heavy industry development”, the WPCA’s letter wants action to. Ensure “Western Port continues as a viable place of recreation, agriculture and ecotourism by enhancing local

environmental services”. “Every Victorian community has a stake in moving our state and nation in a just manner beyond polluting fuels, to protect our natural world,” Ms Bush said. “We call on our federal political representatives and candidates to back our vision on behalf of the people around Western Port, by committing to an effective plan to reduce and end our reliance on polluting energy sources.” Ms Bush said alliance members would invite community groups, businesses and other organisations to sign the letter.

Cents a reason to ‘correct’ CEO’s $425,000 package MORNINGTON Peninsula Shire has corrected information released about CEO John Baker’s $425,000 salary package. The new figures do not change the total of Mr Baker’s remuneration but correct an “administrative error”. Council’s 14 December meeting was told that his new, increased base salary was $386,363.64, not the $382,500 as stated in an official news release following a council decision that his salary was not confidential. The corrected figures show his superannuation to be $38,636.36, not $42,500 as previously stated. Council agreed to give Mr Baker a rise at its 15 November meeting and ordered a news release on 7 December. “Given that council resolved the apportionment of the total remuneration package, it is appropriate that council resolve to amend,” legal and governance manager Amanda Sapolu said in a report to the 14 December meeting. “In preparing the media release, an administrative error was discovered in the apportionment of

base salary and superannuation.” In a bid to make sure a similar problem does not happen again, councillors vote unanimously “that all matters relating to the chief executive officer employment remuneration and contract be brought back to the council committee of the whole before any report is tabled at an ordinary council meeting”. The 9 December news release advising of Mr Bakers’s salary increase said: “When considering the sum of the remuneration package, council was advised on industry standards through benchmarking of similar sized and placed councils; and considered the assessment of Mr Baker's performance over each of the quarters, a previous two-year pay freeze and the CEO's self-initiated 10 per cent pay cut during 2021.” The mayor Cr Anthony Marsh was quoted as saying: “Retaining a high performing CEO is essential for ensuring the best outcomes for our community. This decision is a vote of confidence from council in the CEO to lead the shire into 2022 and beyond." Keith Platt

With Liz Bell

Rescue after paddlers swept out to sea TWO teenage paddle boarders who got swept out to sea on Tuesday were rescued at Mount Eliza by Frankston SES volunteers, Ambulance Victoria, the Police Airwing and marine rescue volunteers. The two girls had been on stand-up paddle boards when strong offshore winds prevented them from paddling back to shore and took them three kilometres out to sea. One of the teenagers used her Apple Watch about 9pm to call for help, and the Police Airwing was able to locate the stricken pair and drop a flare to guide rescue vessels which were conducting a training session nearby. A Volunteer Marie Rescue spokesperson said it was a great result involving multiple emergency agencies, but also highlighted the need to understand weather conditions before entering the water. He said if the alarm had not have been raised by the girl’s use of a watch or by people on the beach, it “could have been a very different outcome for the two and their families”. “Both VMR skippers and all crew were acutely aware that the light was fading and that getting to the area was critical,” he said. Last weekend emergency services were notified when a 12-year-old boy at Frankston beach drifted out to sea but was able to make it back to shore.

ROSEBUD police are seeking information about an accident on 25 November last where an elderly woman in a mobility scooter was hit by a car. At about 3.20pm a small red or orange hatchback was travelling east on Campbell Lane, Rye. As the vehicle approached the intersection of Campbell Lane and Lyons Street the driver is alleged to having failed to give way before colliding with the mobility scooter (there are clear signs to give way). The driver stopped and helped the woman

before getting back in the vehicle and driving away, failing to exchange details or ascertaining if she needed medical assistance. Anyone with information about the car or its driver should phone First Constable Towan at Rosebud Police Station on 5986 0444.

Man drowned A MAN in his 20s drowned at an unpatrolled Blairgowrie beach on Sunday morning. The man was seen swimming in the ocean about 9.20am and his body was found shortly after in the water off Koonya beach. Police will prepare a report for the coroner, but his death is not being treated as suspicious. It is unclear what caused the man to drown, but strong currents can be present at the beach where he went swimming.

Men’s shed wins 10-year lease hangar the Southern Peninsula Rescue Squad’s helicopter until it moved to the Blairgowrie Yacht Squadron in 2013. The building was unoccupied until the men’s shed moved in in January 2019. The original one-year lease was renewed in 2020 and again in 2021. The Men’s Shed is now seeking a longer-term lease in line with the lease at Stringer Road Reserve, Blairgowrie. “It was great news when we heard the shire had approved the 10-year lease and had gone out to public notice,” Point Nepean Men's Shed Association’s Terry Phippen said. “There is still a bit of time before we get that formal paperwork in our hands and can formally sign off but we are on our way,” he said. “A 10-year lease gives us a level of security for the 100 members and 70 social members. “The members have plenty of ideas on how to develop our home base. “The hangar is the perfect meeting place for men looking for social connection in our community, through many varied activities.” Other men’s sheds are on council land at Baxter, Blairgowrie, Capel Sound, Dromana and Mornington. The Point Nepean Men’s Shed also has a lease until 2030 over land at Stringer Road Reserve, Blairgowrie from where it runs its mobile workshop and outreach program. It also runs a bike restoration program, Repair Cafe and practical car maintenance program. The Hotham Road hangar is used for meetings, presentations, social gatherings, fundraising activities and regular Colourful touch: Men’s shed health and welfare presentamember Kit Bailey with the tions. new totems.

POINT Nepean Men’s Shed at Sorrento has been given a 10-year lease by Mornington Peninsula Shire Council. The shire’s senior property officer Kimily Clark told council’s 1 November meeting that there had been a rapid development in men’s sheds since 2000, with more than 1000 sheds representing 175,000 members in the Australian Men’s Shed Association. The non-commercial organisations are open to all men and provide a safe and friendly environment where men can work on meaningful projects, at their own pace, in their own time, in the company of other men. The Point Nepean Men’s Shed, in Hotham Road, has 98 members and 68 social members. The site was developed as a hub for social connection for older men facing retirement and health issues. The clifftop site was previously used as a

Totem welcome DECORATIVE totem poles have been added to the entrance of The Hangar, home to the Point Nepean Men’s Shed, Sorrento. The heavy timber posts were donated by the family of Blairgowrie resident Ron Emblin, who died recently, along with tools from his garage. Mr Emblin, who was in his 90s, began working on the totems for his front garden after being impressed by similar decorations on the Geelong waterfront. Shed member Kit Bailey said he gave the heavy timber totems a touch up with paint and they were “looking good” at The Hangar.

Finally, relief from your hip pain DOES this describe YOU? • You get hip pain laying on your side in bed, and just can’t get to sleep. • You place a pillow between your legs to help you get to sleep but laying on the painful side is still waking you. • You find yourself standing on one leg with your other hip hanging lower, or you sitting with crossed legs causes the pain • You are a runner worried your hip pain will get worse and stop you from exercising. If so then read on. The pain on the outside of the hip can be due to inflammation of the gluteal tendon, of Gluteus Medius and Minimus, where the gluteal muscles attach. It can also be where a bursa (a fat pad called the trochanteric bursa) can become inflamed. The hip pain may be associated with a stiff back. Physiotherapist Mark Charalambous, says that it is an injury affected by hip weakness and postural habits that place the tendons under stress. It requires a full analysis of the hip and lower limb, looking from the foot to the back biomechanics. It can require massage, and specific strengthening exercises for the gluteal muscles as well as improving core stability to control pelvic movement. In addition to the above solutions, there is a recent healing technology that is making a profound difference to outside of the hip pain sufferers. Practice owner, Paul Rowson says

Physiotherapist, Mark Charalambous “Shockwave Therapy is often useful, because the gluteal tendons are a connective tissue, not a muscle. It puts a significant shockwave through the tissues you apply it to. It is a pressure wave which brings blood flow to the area. Tendons and connective tissue do not have much blood supply and can take a long time to heal. Shockwave artificially stimulates the healing of the tendon.” Shockwave therapy can also be used on Achilles tendonitis, Plantar Fasciitis, golfer’s and tennis elbow, and rotator cuff tendon problems,

and is usually most effective on long term chronic problems, rather than acute injuries. Shockwave is not the first line of treatment for injured patients. Physiotherapy and graded exercise are more likely in the first instance. But for more stubborn conditions, shockwave has shown good results. “The evidence at the moment suggests between three to five treatments are required, but most people should see an improvement within three sessions. It has a success rate up to 90%” Mark says. The Shockwave therapy is administered for a three-minute period

to the affected area during consecutive weekly appointments. “It is a bit of an uncomfortable sensation” Mark says, “like most physio hands-on treatments, with a little discomfort during the treatment.” Paul says, “After each session, most people get a significant reduction of pain and symptoms. Long term it stimulates healing, short term it reduces pain. The best thing is, the effects are long lasting. It prevents a lot of people having more invasive things like surgery or injections. The treatment is considered safe, but can produce skin reddening or bruising, short term pain, and cannot

be used on people taking blood thinning medications or with bleeding disorders. “ “It is important to know that Shockwave has a long-term effect. Most of the time you have good outcomes, without having to have further treatments.” Shockwave is now available in Balnarring. Call the practice now and speak to one of our physios to see if Shockwave suits your condition. Back in Motion is at 6/2-8 Russell Street, Balnarring.

SATURDAY

DREDD

7MATE, 10.20pm

THURSDAY

BLOOD DIAMOND

SEVEN, 9pm

Leonardo DiCaprio (left) went two for two in 2006 with his great performance in The Departed followed by this equally striking action-drama. DiCaprio plays South African diamond smuggler Danny, caught in a crossﬁre of moral conﬂict in civil war-stricken Sierra Leone. Djimon Hounsou and Jennifer Connelly are part of his quest to possess a priceless stone. Blood Diamond has a lot in common with The Constant Gardener – also structured around the wages of war in Africa – but lacks its subtlety.

THURSDAY

MIRIAM & ALAN: LOST IN SCOTLAND

ABC TV, 8.30pm

In what seems like a rather odd but fascinating pairing, actors Miriam Margolyes (Call the Midwife) and Alan Cumming (The Good Wife) take to a campervan to explore their Scottish roots. But rather than an idyllic exploration of the landscape and culture of Bonnie Scotland, this threepart travelogue turns out to be a rather intimate and personal journey that warrants packing a box of tissues. The duo start things oﬀ in Glasgow, where they visit the street where Miriam’s Jewish family ﬁrst lived in Scotland.

MONDAY

BRITAIN’S SCENIC RAILWAYS

SBS, 7.35pm

Travelling by train can be one of the most enjoyable and relaxing ways to travel. In tonight’s ﬁnal in this four-part series, we explore the heritage railway that runs through the Severn Valley between Worcester and Shropshire, following the tracks of the old Great Western Railway. Celebrating its historical importance, we’ll learn how a group of volunteers revived the line 50 years ago so generations to come can marvel at the preserved locomotives.

From comic books to video games to Sylvester Stallone’s 1995 incarnation, the grimacing, helmeted cop Judge Dredd has been ruthlessly cleaning up the rough end of town with no fear of ﬁring his weapon. In this latest foray into the wild streets of Mega City One, Dredd (Karl Urban) is assigned rookie Anderson (Olivia Thirlby) who joins him on a mission to bring down the gang led by Ma-Ma (Lena Heady) before their drug inﬁltrates all corners of the downtrodden city. Dredd is brutal but with its sensational stunts, tons of tension and a body count you’ll soon lose track of, it’s exactly what you’d expect. Karl Urban stars in Dredd

Pest free vines

We did it: St Joseph’s Primary School students are celebrating their green space win. Picture: Supplied

School’s garden-grown award ST JOSEPH’S Primary School, Sorrento, has won the greatest improvement of green space award in 2021 Victorian Schools Garden Program. TV presenter Costa Georgiadis hosted the 44th annual awards online on 2 December. “This is a wonderful award as the indigenous medicinal, edible garden was created in 2019 through a grant by Junior Woolworths Land Care, with the support of Bunnings Rosebud and Point Nepean Men’s Shed,” the school’s sustainability leader Jane Byrne said.

WHAT DO YOU THINK?

“Our green spaces have been challenging as we have 90 per cent hard surface. This year we increased our green space after receiving another Landcare grant which saw the school expand its planting for an indigenous butterfly and bee garden.” Ms Byrne said biodiversity at the school had “increased enormously”. “As a Resource Smart school we were also awarded two more stars by Sustainability Victoria – one of which was for our waste module,” she said.

HOW DOES IT MAKE YOU FEEL?

VINEYARDS on the Mornington Peninsula have officially been declared free of the deadly grapevine pest phylloxera. Agriculture minister Mary-Anne Thomas last week visited Montalto winery, Red Hill, to announce the region phylloxera-free. Phylloxera is a tiny, yellow insect that feeds on rooted vines, leading to a decline in their health and potentially their death. It is the main threat to grapevines in Australia and can decimate crops. The state government in 2017 provided $1.8 million to survey the region and enable it to transition from an undetermined status to phylloxera-free. “After four consecutive years of inspection of all commercial vineyards, we’re pleased this devastating pest has not been found in the region,” Mornington Peninsula Vignerons Association CEO Olivia Barrie said. “It highlights the responsibility we have to protect our vineyards to keep phylloxera out.” Nepean MP Chris Brayne said the ongoing efforts of grape growers in ensuring strong biosecurity practices had helped protect the peninsula’s wine industry. Over the past four years, survey teams have inspected 965 hectares of grapevines, but no evidence of the pest was found. Details: agriculture.vic.gov.au/tacklingphylloxera.

Australia Day a celebration for all ‘and what we represent’ I am sick of [Mornington Peninsula Shire] councillors saying our Australia Day is a day of mourning (“Shire flags changes for A-Day 2023” The News 11/1/21). It is a celebration of our country and what we represent. I thought our councillors are supposed to represent all their constituents. Everyone should celebrate living in a special country like ours; celebrate whatever we have and have learned, not promoting divisiveness. Our previous mayor [Cr Despi O’Connor] disgusted me when she would not March in our Australia Day celebration because of her beliefs. That is not representative of us all. People in the march are celebrating local services and having fun. Kaye Brown, Mornington

Sensitive move Flying First Nations flags half-mast on 26 January is simply sensitivity towards how Indigenous people may feel on the day. How can anyone call that being “divisive”? Maureen Donelly, Mornington

‘Discriminatory’ views Cr Sarah Race’s outspoken views should be kept to her inner sanctum and not smeared into the public arena (“Shire flags changes for A-Day 2023” The News 11/1/21). As she is a paid member in public office surely such views are unprofessional and incongruous with impartiality in her role? One has to wonder what her agenda is. Her comments are discriminatory towards non-Indigenous people and downright judgmental towards them. Australia is supposed to be a country with freedom of speech [and] Cr Race needs to be reminded in her paid role that she should not be driving such an inflammatory topic but, indeed, should be focusing on issues such as increasing public toilets on the peninsula. Her personal views are not welcomed nor tolerated. Maybe she needs to reconsider her role. T Seymour, Mornington Peninsula

Utopia goes missing

The furniture is in excellent condition, yet had we not raised our disgust at the council’s plans, the furniture was going to landfill. Surely a school, youth group, guide or scout troop, market stallholders or the food bank would gladly find a use for such items? Mornington Peninsula Shire Council claims to be a sustainable shire however, if this is an example of its policies, then it’s just another example of hot air. Wendy McKeown, Rosebud

A tip for the Mornington Peninsula Shire Council: If you are going to use real grass as part of the street “beautification”, it would be wise in future to plan to water it. The lack of water is clear for all to see. Jack Wheeler, Mornington

Band width overloaded

United we stand

Cut for Christmas Residents of Colstan Court, Mt Eliza are most appreciative of the reserve in their street and over the years have planted trees to enhance the area. In December each year they make a request to Mornington Peninsula Shire Council to cut the grass before the annual Christmas street party. However, due to the work load caused by storm damage in the shire in December, this did not happen. Seeing the very long grass the day before, six lady residents took their lawn mowers to the park and mowed the area needed. This was such an amazingly selfless act that I wish to give a “shout out” to those very thoughtful “not so young” ladies who assured us all of a very merry party on 12 December. Margaret McArthur, Mount Eliza

Water the grass

With the swollen population on the Mornington Peninsula for the next four to six weeks, would it be beyond the relevant communications providers to ramp up the available band width to cope. Waiting until 10.30am in the evening to get a reliable minimum two bars is unacceptable. David Martin, Mount Martha

Redesign reserve

Re-use hall furniture

Health connections

What a shock it was to be informed by Mornington Peninsula Shire hall officials that the furniture from the Flinders Hall (which is about to be demolished) was simply going to be discarded. No plans were in place for shire officials to consult with other community groups in the hope of finding another use for the more than 100 chairs and 10 large tables.

With visits not allowed to hospitals, families are relying on phoning staff for updates on patients. This has placed extra stress on them and us, with calls to emergency departments going unanswered for hours. My request to Peninsula Health for a “care call” as an attempt to hear of my husband’s condition also went unanswered. I fully appreciate

Southern Peninsula News

Candidates’ policies For the first time in a long time the campaign for Flinders in the upcoming federal election promises to be competitive. Previously, Flinders was considered to be a lock for the Coalition. And [Liberal] Greg Hunt would mark the beginning of his campaign by swamping the electorate with his signs and billboards, one of the benefits of incumbency, giving his underfunded opponents little opportunity to get their messages across. Greg Hunt is retiring and whatever the result, Flinders will have a new representative in Canberra, and we are already seeing a number of well credentialed candidates putting their names forward. Modern campaigns tend to be dominated by TV advertising and whatever the various party leaders are doing as represented on the evening news. Tip O’Neill the former speaker of the US House of Representatives is most often associated with the maxim “all politics is local”. It would be good if the 2022 campaign had some elements of that philosophy. Periodically, leading up to the election The News could nominate a topic and publish a response from the candidates. There is no shortage of topics, such as climate change, vaccine strollout, federal anti-corruption commission, sports rorts, NDIS underfunding and treatment of refugees. A vigorous debate in the pages of The News will ensure that, come polling day, we have a fully informed electorate, which is surely what democracy should be about. Geoff Hilton, Mount Martha

As a representative of ratepayers, I have some questions to ask of Mornington Peninsula Shire mayor, Cr Anthony Marsh. In his pre-election blurb, he dreams of a utopia that “provides a peninsula that attracts investment and a bigger slice of state and federal funding”. He also said this would reduce pressure on our rates. When is this going to happen? He has also promised to protect our landscapes, beaches and coastal villages. Well, on his watch, the Point Nepean quarantine station parade ground will be turned over to glamping. He also envisages facilities to enhance the health and wellbeing of our community easily accessible by our youths, growing families and older population. He went on promising much. Another question to him is how is he going to do all this while he, an inexperienced councillor, heads an inexperienced, toxic council? Why has the inexperienced council rejected council officer opinion at council meetings? Explain the “ruling group” of councillors that exclude the remaining councillors from decision making? Is he part of the “ruling group”? Who is leading the toxic “ruling group”? How close is this group to the CEO and other senior officers? Some advice for Cr Marsh: get rid of the factions and the so-called ruling group and maybe some of his dreams might come to fruition. Until then, ratepayers will suffer because of this nonsense. John Cain, president Mornington Peninsula Ratepayers and Residents Association

PAGE 32

that section maybe struggling, but I wanted to talk about solutions for others too. My husband (85 plus) has been transferred to a private hospital intensive care unit as a public patient, for which we are grateful, but I am wary of phoning and putting pressure on there as well (we don’t use mobile phones). Calls for a system, maybe of volunteers taking messages? Frances Henke, Hastings

I am just catching up with the proposed Flinders Reserve overhaul. It appears that the design is throwing the baby out with the bathwater. [Mornington Peninsula Shire’s] plans show that the current nature-based play equipment will be replaced by tacky plastic equipment, which is a retrograde step. Will the existing trees be cut down and replaced? The only thing that the reserve needs is a proper amenities toilet block. From a wheelchair user’s perspective, the current set up in the reserve is almost ideal; it is one of our preferred places to go because the grass is flat and accessible, while the playground and surrounds (including tables and benches) are well shaded. According to the proposed plan, this will no longer be the case after the “upgrade”. For example, the dedicated accessible table appears to be in full sunlight. Given that many people who require a wheelchair have difficulty with thermoregulation, the accessible table should be stationed under shade, otherwise it is useless. Finally, why is a changing places toilet not included? If the shire is genuine in its plan to create a more inclusive environment for its residents, then a fully accessible toilet and hygiene facility should be included as part of this upgrade. Bianca Felix, Bittern

19 January 2022

“Hoping for the best” did not work, and Voices of Mornington Peninsula was not prepared to “plan for the worst” when Despi O’Connor announced her campaign after not receiving the group’s endorsement [to stand for Flinders at the next federal election] (“Dumping ground” Letters 16/11/21). Interestingly, her website was quite developed when she announced her candidacy, leading me to think that she only joined VMP to get its endorsement. If having an independent elected genuinely motivated Cr O’Connor, she would not split the vote and funding. It is only by being united and working together that we can achieve our goal of an independent for Flinders. I suggest reading the article where Cr O’Connor admitted that she left five of [Mornington Peninsula Shire’s] 11 councillors out of an email discussion because she knew they would not support changes she wanted to council’s operating rules: “I knew I wouldn’t get their support” (“‘No-support’ councillors left out of email loop” The News 26/10/21) and “I stand on my integrity because there is nothing that I have done wrong, haven’t broken any governance rules. Not one” (“Shire’s damaged reputation” The News 2/11/21). Another piece questioning integrity: agedcarematters.net.au/having-a-bet-each-way-inflinders. Is this really an ethically/moral “independent candidate”, or someone feeding their own ego to the detriment of electing an independent and changing the dysfunctional government the two major parties offer? Only when independent candidates hold the balance of power can we expect anything to change and, hopefully, have a government held to at least the semblance of a moral compass. Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach

Greens warning It was Greens leader Richard Di Natale, who warned in an ABC interview that Dr Kerryn Phelp’s “medivac” private members bill “needs to be carefully worked through as it may have unintended consequences” (“Between parties” Letters 11/1/22). How prophetic. Of all those brought to Australia under this legislation, how many were admitted to hospital? Nil, none, zero. And what happened to them? Well, we know 33 are still

stuck in the Park Hotel in Carlton, with others at Preston, while those Dr Phelps left behind are either in PNG or the USA, getting on with normal lives. Wasn’t Julia Banks the Liberal MP who deserted the thousands of Coalition supporters who voted for her and put the Turnbull government into minority allowing the Phelps Bill to pass? As for GetUp, it funded four major campaigns in the 2019 election targeting [Tony] Abbott, [Josh] Frydenberg, [Nicolle] Flint and [Greg] Hunt. Despite spending millions on mis-information and thousands of cold calls, usually at tea time, only the Abbott campaign succeeded, but at least Julie Banks beat the informal vote. Michael G Free, Mount Martha

‘Facts’ about Hunt A very emotional tribute to [Flinders MP] Greg Hunt (which also claims writers of letters to The News are not stating facts), I would like to note that the only fact offered is the hours he has spent away from home (“Tireless Hunt” Letters 21/12/21). All federal MPs spend more than 100 hours away from their family. Here are some facts about Greg Hunt not mentioned: Not responding to Moderna and Pfizer’s approaches to clinch deals in the early stages of the pandemic and not addressing to any significant degree the need for federally-funded quarantine facilities (another issue the states had to deal with during this pandemic). The list goes on. I have only lived in the seat of Flinders for a few years and I can assure you, Greg Hunt as federal health minister, should have overseen some real investment into Rosebud hospital by now. Alice Bevens, Rye

Part of the job I would like to correct a few errors in Kay Grey’s defence of criticism of Greg Hunt (‘Tireless Hunt’ The News 21/12/21). So, what if he has worked 180 nights a year away from home. That was part of the job, he knew what he was getting into. How is this more meritorious than a truck driver who may spend even more time away from home and doesn’t have the luxury of a very generous living away from home allowance and limitless jet flights back home. I am not sure what the trio of Morrison, Frydenberg and Hunt are top of the class in, unless you consider the vaccine strollout, or washing their hands of quarantine, or perhaps saddling future generations with eye-watering debt or running eight consecutive budget deficits or seemingly endless pork barrelling of public money. As to the alleged stupidity of the State Labor governments it should remember that if it wasn’t for the state governments taking control of the COVID response from a dithering federal government then I shudder to think how bad things may have gotten in Australia. I agree that fact checking is always a good idea. Dr Ross Hudson, Mount Martha

Stumped by technology Test Cricket has been played successfully for many years, All during that time there has been human error from batsmen, bowlers, fieldsmen, commentators and umpires but despite these errors there has been great cricket. Now they want to introduce technology, which also has errors. Why make changes to a game that has thrilled the world for over a hundred years Also why make umpires like me lose our confidence? Geoffrey Lane, Mornington

Sub-branches praised As a member of the RSL state executive, I believe in visiting local sub-branches when I can and, in the past couple of weeks, I have done so yet again on the Mornington Peninsula. I am impressed with how hard sub-branches are working to stay open within COVID regulations and when many, such as the great Rye sub-branch, have lost quite a few staff due to COVID. You are all role models for businesses in general and your members have much to gain from their memberships, including internet access as well as great coffee, fabulous meals and the welfare support that is offered to those in need. Thank you all. Ange Kenos, RSL Victoria STEX member

Art show’s golden anniversary MORNINGTON Rotary Club is ready to open its 50th annual Mornington Art Show from 20-26 January. Since the first art show in 1972 opened by Dame Mabel Brookes, wife of former Victorian Governor Sir Dallas Brookes - the annual exhibition has grown from requiring a few hired stands to hanging 700 paintings on 125 boards. The scope of the featured works has also been widened to include glasswork, wooden sculpture, coastal art hangings and large wind sculptures. “For an art show to continue for 50 years is quite rare and the Mornington Art show is stronger now than it ever has been,” organiser John Renowden said. “The Rotary club is confident that this 50th anniversary art show will paint beautiful memories on the minds of all who attend. “This is now one of Victoria’s largest art shows with quality art work from local, Victorian and some interstate artists on display and for sale. “Over the 50 years, more than $1.3 million has been raised from the show, with about 60 per cent of this being spent on local Rotary community projects.” Mr Renowden said an “added feature” this year will see the art show go online enabling entries “to be seen, and bought, from home”. Visit: morningtonartshow.com.au “The 50th anniversary Mornington Art Show will be something special,” Mr Renowden said. “Chairperson Richard Vautier and his committee have worked hard to make this show one of the best

Fairway to help JOHN Fisher has not chemotherapy get in the way of a round of golf, especially when it’s to raise money for a cancer-free future. Mr Fisher, who has been diagnosed with two different cancers throughout his life, completed 72 holes of golf last month as part of the Cancer Council’s The Longest Day fundraiser at the Sorrento Golf Club. He and his team raised $70,000, bringing his total fundraising efforts for the Cancer Council to $370,000 since he started playing in The Longest Day in Sorrento five years ago. Mr Fisher, who was diagnosed with non-Hodgkin lymphoma nine years ago, completed six months of chemotherapy in November before taking on The Longest Day. He was also diagnosed with melanoma 25 years ago. The Longest Day is an endurance golf marathon designed to test golfers’ skill, strength, and stamina by completing their chosen number of holes from dawn to dusk. “It was probably my toughest year out of the six years I have been a part of The Longest Day because I had just completed six months of chemo. I also have to start chemo again soon, but I rearranged it so I could still play,” Mr Fisher said. Golfers can still take part of The Longest Day during the new year, with fundraising closing on 28 February. Mr Fisher and his team hope to raise $80,000 by the end of January.

Century secures win for Red Hill, Pines still on top By Brodie Cowburn

PROVINCIAL

AN unbeaten century from Simon Dart was the difference between Red Hill and Old Peninsula on Saturday. Playing at home, Red Hill chose to bat first. Thanks in part to Dart’s knock of 106, Red Hill set Old Peninsula a target of 201 to chase down. Old Peninsula’s run chase got off to a rough start, with both openers falling cheaply. The middle order steadied the ship, but the run rate began to work against them. Old Peninsula ended up finishing their 40 overs at 8/172, 30 short of what was needed to win. Lincoln Toy was the pick of Red Hill’s bowlers, taking 3/18. Baden Powell fell just short of Long Island in an entertaining clash last weekend. Despite losing star batter Nick Jewell early for just three, Long Island had a good afternoon. Opener Aiden Mckenna’s half century helped his side reach a final target of 188. Baden Powell’s run chase was coming along nicely at 2/120, but once wickets started to fall they fell quickly. They lost their last eight wickets for just 55 runs, dooming them to a narrow

13 run defeat. Tom Boxell helped tear through the tail, taking four wickets to wrap up the game. Around the ground, Mt Eliza’s paltry total of 40 saw them defeated by Baxter, and Sorrento defeated Langwarrin by three wickets.

PENINSULA

PINES have cemented their spot on top of the Peninsula division ladder with a good win over Rosebud. Batting first, Rosebud couldn’t make much impact on the scoreboard. The bowling efforts of Pines’ Patrick Jackson hampered Rosebud. He posted figures of 3/17. Pines got their run chase started on the wrong foot. They lost their opening three batters for totals of zero, three, and one respectively. Billy Humphrey and Nicholas Christides dug their heels in for Pines. Their middle order partnership helped their side claim a six wicket win and go two games clear on top of the ladder. A good batting performance by Heatherhill got them a victory over Mornington. Heatherhill scored 189, a total which Mornington fell 39 runs short of.

Downs and Main Ridge, who defeated Dromana and Crib Point respectively.

Seaford Tigers joined the winner’s list with a four wicket win over Flinders. The Tigers passed their target of 137 with a few overs left to play. Moorooduc had a bad day at home on Saturday against Somerville. They could only score 94 runs, and ended up falling to a nine wicket loss.

SUB DISTRICT

A BRILLIANT century from Pradeep De Silva was the highlight of a high scoring clash between Ballam Park and Balnarring on Saturday. De Silva was awesome with the bat. The opener smashed 21 boundaries, including four sixes, on his way to a huge total of 111. De Silva’s efforts helped Ballam Park wrap up a hard fought win. They chased down Balnarring’s total of 206 to get the victory. There was a photo finish at Truemans Road Reserve on Saturday when Toogarook took on Skye. Batting first, Tootgarook was impressive. A knock of 66 from opener Travis French helped set them up for a final total of 173. Skye chipped away at their target, but the tail enders were the ones that had to finish the job. Skye scraped over the line to win in the final over with just one wicket to spare. Around the grounds Tyabb defeated Mt Martha and Boneo defeated Pearcedale. Seaford bested Rye at RJ Rowley Reserve.

DISTRICT

HASTINGS took home the win in a thriller against Carrum at Roy Dore Reserve last weekend. A good performance from the middle order saw Hastings set Carrum a target of 199 to win. Patrick Wilson was their top scorer with 46. Carrum’s run chase was elevated by a fantastic middle order partnership between Corey Hand and Matthew Boland. The two put on nearly 100 runs together. The two were dismissed with 15 runs left to score and four wickets left to spare. The tail end wasn’t able to finish the job, handing Hastings the win. Carrum were bowled out for 196, with no overs left to play. Delacombe Park scored a hard fought four wicket win over Frankston YCW on Saturday. Also victorious last weekend were Carrum

Nichols buys another Star? HORSE RACING

By Ben Triandafillou SHANE Nichols didn’t leave wondering ‘what could’ve been’ after forking out $800,000 to purchase the first foal out of his Group 1 winning mare I Am A Star. Nichols, who trained the mother to 10 victories, including 9 at Group class level, paid up for the Deep Field colt (lot 125) at Tuesday’s opening session of the Magic Millions Gold Coast Yearling Sale. The Mornington-based trainer said he expected a large price tag on the bold chestnut colt but was thrilled to see some similar characteristics to his brilliant mare I Am A Star. “He’s a pretty nice colt, she’s produced a good one first go (as a broodmare),” Nichols said. "He's got a few similarities to her. He's a different colour but I was looking at him and noticed that a couple of the angles and that sort of thing, and his head carriage was very, very similar to her. “She wasn’t a big horse so he’s going to be a more masculine version of her I suppose but a nice, neat horse and I’m pretty sure he’ll be

able to run.” The colt has already settled in well at Nichols’ Mornington stables and is currently enjoying some time out in the paddock with a stablemate. Nichols said there’s still some shares available in the colt with 25% remaining. “$800,000 is $800,000, it’s hard to earn with a pick and shovel but I knew we were going to get pushed a bit and I thought $600,000 to $800,000 was probably her range,” he said. “I’m relieved that it’s over and we were able to buy him, now I’ve just got to sell him.”

Pricey purchase: Shane Nichols goes to $800,000 to buy the first foal out of his Group 1 winning mare I Am A Star. Picture: Supplied

Wallace on pandemic frontline SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie THE panic attacks are less frequent now but anxiety is a regular companion. Such is the lot of Tanya Wallace, 32, Langwarrin soccer club president and registered nurse who works in emergency at Royal Melbourne Hospital. Fear and uncertainty are ever present on the pandemic frontline and part of her everyday life. “The second lockdown in 2020 was the hardest one,” she said. “I couldn’t see my mum or my brother for three or four months and we had an outbreak in my hospital and mum (also a nurse) had an outbreak in hers. “Being forced into not being able to see them was very, very hard and it definitely weighed on my mental health. “I would go to work and be scared I was going to get COVID. “I remember getting a call from our infection prevention services telling me that I had looked after a positive patient and they went through all these questions with me. “That call came in the middle of my work day and I remember getting home that afternoon and was so panicked I couldn’t breathe. “I had to meditate then virtually talk myself down. “I got a test the next day and it came back negative so I was very fortunate they didn’t have to furlough me but every day it really weighed on me – is this the day I’m going to get it?” Wallace recognised the need for professional help and turned to a psychologist who treated her over the next six months. It was the first time since 2011 that she dealt with the sudden death of her father who was an icon of soccer at both Langwarrin and throughout the peninsula. “I think COVID forced me to take a good hard look at myself because I wasn’t as busy as I normally would be seeing my family and my friends and going down to the soccer club. “Suddenly all those outlets had been taken away from me and I couldn’t avoid what had happened any more. “Not only did the psychologist get me through the hard part of not seeing any one and only going to work then going home and having to start again the next day but she made me open up. “For the first time I was dealing with my best friend dying and changing my entire life when I was just 21 and my mental health is a lot better for dealing with that.” Royal Melbourne is a level 1 trauma centre and was always going to be at the coalface of our pandemic response. What Wallace has experienced has had a profound effect on her and a major impact on the emergency department. “Emergency is usually very intense but during the height of COVID we were seeing quite a few deaths which really changes the atmosphere and everyone is just so flat. “You don’t expect that volume of people to die in a week. “We’ve never seen anything like that before then you’ve got to deal with families not being able to come in and say goodbye to their loved ones. “That really hit me the hardest because I was allowed to have that time with my dad when he passed away so I can only imagine what it must be like watching on a bloody I-pad screen while someone you don’t know is holding the hand of your father, your mother, your sister … and as a nurse

you’ve then got to go back to your other three patients. “I watched my colleagues go through that day-in day-out and helped them when I could but emotionally it absolutely wrecks you.” It also casts doubt over your career choice. “I think I’m a different nurse now and I think I’m a different person having seen what I’ve seen. “We’ve been doing this for a couple of years now then a new strain comes along – it’s like you’ve got PTSD. “When we go through the lockdowns your anxiety goes through the roof because you’re thinking is this the day we’re going to absolutely get smashed with 300 patients and 50 of them are going to die. “That’s the sort of apprehension you have every day you go to work. “We’ve been short-staffed and we’ve essentially been working overtime for two years. “I’m burnt out and other colleagues are burnt out and it makes you question whether or not this is the profession for you. “But I just love helping people and that’s what keeps me doing it.” Wallace grew up on the peninsula and Lawton Park was a second home so her accession to the role her father 19 January 2022

had held with such distinction was no surprise. However finding the time to steer Langwarrin through the turbulence of the past two seasons given her job and living in Melbourne’s northern suburbs while also starting a post-graduate course in critical care emergency nursing is nothing short of remarkable. “I’ve lived in Glenroy now for almost a year and before that I had two years in Moonee Ponds. “I guess when COVID first started I felt immense pressure with my father’s legacy to the club and to the local game to keep the doors open, to keep it functioning and to look after the members in a climate that was forever changing. “I lost a lot of sleep. I broke down and cried a lot. “I still had to motivate 11 people on the committee some of whom were off work or their family was off work and it took a lot not to walk away but really I couldn’t leave people to fend for themselves. “It just wasn’t an option. “I had to rally myself and rally the committee I guess to stay committed to the 600-plus members. “I couldn’t have made it through without the close confidantes, the old guard I guess, that gave me the insight

and confidence from my dad that I was doing the right thing and we would get through this and the club would be okay.” And Langwarrin under Wallace has continued on its journey towards the realisation of a vision her father had championed many years ago. “We’ve just about completed our lights program and the lights on the main pitch will be fully operational this week. “That will give us two pitches with floodlighting up to NPL standard.” More grounds and a synthetic pitch remain on the wishlist while Wallace cites the implementation of more cohesiveness in various areas of the club as a priority for 2022. “I’d like to have a more cohesive committee unit and a more cohesive working environment between my coaches and my technical directors and the key people within the club who are running programs. “Obviously all of us are not going to be in our roles forever so I’d like us to inspire people within the club to want to join the committee or to want to get involved in a coaching role. “That’s the environment I’d like to have – it’s my number one goal this year.” But first things first.

The 10th staging of the annual tournament named in her father’s honour and a rallying point for the local game takes place on Saturday at Lawton Park. Here is the full draw for the 2022 Steve Wallace Cup: 12pm Game 1 Baxter v Mount Martha (main pitch) and Game 2 Rosebud v Somerville (top pitch). 1pm Game 3 Frankston Pines v Seaford United (main pitch) and Game 4 Peninsula Strikers v Skye United (top pitch). 2pm Game 5 Langwarrin v winner of Game 2 (main pitch) and Game 6 Mornington v winner of Game 1 (top pitch). 3pm Semi-final 1 (main pitch) and loser Game 1 v loser Game 2 (top pitch). 4pm Semi-final 2 (main pitch) and loser Game 3 v loser Game 4. Games will consist of 20-minute halves with a five-minute half-time break. Drawn games will be decided by a penalty shootout. Winners of Games 3, 4, 5 and 6 will qualify for the semi-finals and there are no seedings for the semi-finals (an open draw will take place 10 minutes before the first semi-final). The final kicks off at 5.15pm on the main pitch and the third place play-off which is optional for the teams involved can be played on the top pitch at the same time. Meanwhile pre-season preparations for many local clubs have been chaotic with coaching staff and players testing positive for COVID-19 and being forced to isolate. Baxter was particularly hard hit with senior and reserves coaching staff all testing positive recently while only five senior players were available for training last Thursday. State 4 rival Chelsea fared little better forcing coach Carlo Melino to postpone the start to pre-season training which finally gets underway on Tuesday next week. In State 3 news Frankston Pines have signed former Malvern City captain Ryan Ratcliffe. The defender has been in Tasmania for work reasons for the past couple of seasons and in 2020 won Launceston United’s best and fairest with 17 votes in 13 games. Pines take on Peninsula Strikers tonight (Tuesday) at Carrum Downs Recreation Reserve at 6.30pm. In State 4 Lee Barber’s Somerville Eagles are expected this week to announce the signings of left-sided player Adrian Pace from Aspendale Stingrays, striker Guil Riberio (Berwick City and Aspendale Stingrays), goalkeeper Nick Bucello (Ashburton), defender Ash Stokes (returning from Rosebud), midfielder Joel Wade (returning from Rosebud) and the return from long-term injury of Jack Wyer and Ronnie Krishnan. In State 5 Mount Martha has announced a busy pre-season schedule. Chris Sanderson’s outfit will play Somerville on 29 January, Shepparton South on 5 February, Old Melburnians on 19 February, Drouin Dragons on 26 February and HMAS Cerberus on 15 March. All games are at Civic Reserve and kick-off times are 1pm (reserves) and 3pm. On Sunday 13 March Mount Martha will play Mount Eliza at Civic Reserve for the Mental Health Safety Net Cup with the reserves kicking off at 1pm and the senior clash at 3pm.
