Greek myth a lesson for modern minds

LITTLE did she know as she grew up, but it was probably inevitable that Alexandra Dellaportas’s artistic eye would see creative possibilities when learning about her wider family’s history. Talking with her grandfather while visiting Greece and learning about Greek mythology have led directly to her third dance production, Ariadne. Unlike the easy familial linking of the Mornington Peninsula-based director and choreographer to Greece, the story of the mythical Ariadne involves corrosive family relationships and her eventual escape from these bonds through a labyrinth built to hold the half man half bull Minotaur for her father King Minos. Dellaportas’s version of the slaying of the Minotaur on Crete by the Athenian Theseus and the pair’s escape through the labyrinth by following a thread is an opportunity to “open up discussions about mental health and how the Minotaur is a representation of our innermost self, the part we hide from the world”. “Ariadne learns that while she can escape an island, she cannot escape from herself,” she says. “I think it is important to talk about mental health and open up discussions with kids and adults as well all can relate to these issues.” Having started Spark Youth Dance Company three years ago, Dellaportas’s Ariadne follows The Nutcracker (2016) a war propaganda tale “where I decided to combine my history knowledge with love of dance” and Shatter, which brought the Suffragettes and women’s rights to the stage. Spark Youth Dance Company will perform Ariadne on 27 and 28 September at Frankston Arts Centre. Bookings: www.sparkyouthdance.com.au.

No great leap forward at The Pillars Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au DESPITE hours of meetings, speaking with residents, writing reports and to-ing and fro-ing with government departments, Mornington Peninsula Shire Council is almost back to square one with its management of The Pillars. The council last week moved to adopt its draft long term management plan for the contentious cliff jumping site at Mt Martha and asked the De-

partment of Environment, Land, Water and Planning for more support to help manage the area. The council will now concentrate on making it safe for visitors to The Pillars; controlling traffic and parking; and running an “education and enforcement campaign”. In 2016, the shire received money from DELWP to develop the plan which encouraged feedback from residents angry about overuse of The Pillars and the impacts caused by hordes of day trippers.

Lawyers & Advisers

Community meetings were held in 2016-17, with management options workshopped at an information session in February. The draft long term management plan finally went on public exhibition after this year’s 22 May council meeting. Over the following six-weeks 22 submissions were received, some of which have been used to develop action plans and possible management options for The Pillars during summer. Long term management options were developed in line with the four

principles of the Victorian Coastal Strategy: Ensure the protection of significant environmental and cultural values, undertake integrated planning and provide clear direction for the future, and ensure the sustainable use of natural coastal resources. The draft management plan also considered a cliff top boardwalk, banning jumping and fencing off The Pillars, the latter two suggestions were quickly abandoned. The boardwalk could still be an option, but not unless the state govern-

ment climbs aboard with some money. Other issues considered in the plan included the obvious ones of dangers faced by cliff jumpers and pedestrians walking along the Esplanade to The Pillars. But it is parking and traffic congestion in nearby streets, anti-social behaviour, erosion of the cliff face, loss of vegetation, litter and access for emergency services that most concerns nearby residents. The council has revoked a January 2017 decision to hand back management of the area to DELWP.

Time the essence in stroke treatment MORNINGTON father-of-three Ian Thompson felt his head go “cloudy”, couldn’t think straight and became disoriented; to make matters worse, he began to lose his vision. Although the 64-year-old did not know it at the time, he was having a stroke. “After meeting other stroke survivors I feel lucky, as if I had dodged a bullet,” he said last week. “Thankfully, the staff at Frankston Hospital’s emergency department recognised the signs and responded so quickly.” The stroke hit while he was working on his arrows at Frankston Archery Club. “I was using this new solvent to repair the arrows and it’s really volatile stuff,” he said. “It was after I’d had a whiff that my head started to go all funny, so I put it down to that. I knew something was wrong but I couldn’t even walk into the club house – I didn’t know where it was. I didn’t know how to use my phone to call my wife. All I could do was sit there.” At 4.30pm that day the clock had started ticking to save Mr Thompson’s life and limit the effects of the stroke. Mr Thompson’s archery club mates could see something was badly wrong, so they took him home to his wife Sandra. She took one look at him and brought him straight to the emergency department. By the time he arrived staff had just 45 minutes to diagnose the stroke, determine what had caused it and administer the lifesaving clot-busting medication. “They found I had two blockages – one on the right side,

Plant upgrade A $130 MILLION upgrade of South East Water’s Boneo water recycling plant will connect another 16,000 Mornington Peninsula properties to the Peninsula ECO scheme. The reticulated pressure sewer network is replacing septic tanks and mini-treatment plants which cause groundwater and waterway pollution on the southern peninsula. South East Water last week described the works upgrade as “pretty significant”. It will aim to provide for lowenergy nutrient removal and energy recovery processes to achieve emissions targets of 45 per cent by 2025. It is expected 160 jobs and 10 apprenticeships will be created for the design, build operation and maintenance of the plant.

which was the part that affects eyesight, and one at the top of the spinal cord,” Mr Thompson explained. “They were working really hard with the four-hour window to give me the clot buster. I ended up getting it with 20 minutes to go – so I was lucky.” After a few nights in hospital, Mr Thompson was able to go home and onto the stroke detours program. “My sight is still recovering so they taught me really practical things for coping with that, such as how to get my bearings back. For example, they’d drive

me down to the local shops and then I had to direct them home.” Frankston Hospital’s emergency department clinical director Dr Shyaman Menon said a stroke occurred when the blood supply to the brain was interrupted. “Blood is carried to the brain by arteries which contain the oxygen and nutrients brain cells need,” she said. “Without this, brain cells die.” Although brain cells usually die soon after the stroke starts, some can last a few hours if the blood supply is

not cut off completely. “This is why it is so important people get to the emergency department as soon as possible so medication can be administered to save these cells,” Dr Menon said. While still recovering from the effects of the stroke, Mr Thompson is back caravanning and spending time with his grandchildren. Peninsula Health is urging people to fast track access to emergency stroke care, close to home, by donating to donations.peninsulahealth.org.au or by calling 9788 1284.

Actor’s challenging, uphill road STEVE Bastoni’s often on call. He’s an actor and is ready to fit into a role at a director’s discretion. But his job also has a lot to do with timing and he knows “hurrying is just not worth it, especially if you’re driving”. Bastoni, right, has taken on the role of ambassador for next month’s Arthurs Seat Challenge, the 6.7 kilometre run/ walk that raises money to spread the Fit to Drive program’s road safety message in schools throughout the Mornington Peninsula and Frankston. “I’ve never been a participant before, but this year I’ll be giving it a red hot go, although it’s doubtful I’ll be breaking any records,” Bastoni said while filming on location in Geelong last Thursday. “Being asked to be ambassador for the challenge is a good opportunity to get involved in something that’s certainly been on my radar for some time.” The challenge has also been taken up by his basketball-mad children who are “keen to get involved”. “Anything that lends a voice to making our roads safer is worthwhile,” Bastoni says. “I remember being a P-plater and thinking I was bullet proof. Luckily, no one in my circle of friends lost their life, but I’m very aware of too many people driving too fast in residential areas. “There’s really no time to be saved by speeding. “The dangers of trying to get somewhere in hurry are just not worth it.” For details about the Fit to Drive program go to www.f2d.com.au; to register for the Sunday 11 November Arthurs Seat Challenge www.arthursseatchallenge. com.au Keith Platt

AGL reviews power discount offer Keith Platt keith@mpnews.com.au POWER company AGL is considering bringing forward its offer of discounts for businesses along a proposed gas pipeline between Crib Point and Pakenham. The pipeline is an essential part of AGL’s plan to moor a 300 metre long floating gas terminal at Crib Point to process imported liquefied natural gas (LNG). In June AGL “guaranteed” to discount power prices to small businesses along the pipeline route from Crib Point to Pakenham if the floating terminal is approved by governments and its own board (“Contracts ‘advance’ AGL’s gas plan” The News 12/6/18). AGL senior manager - project engagement Kelly Parkinson has told The News that the company “provides a community offer in every community where we operate”. “This is because we believe it’s important that our projects bring lasting benefits to the families and businesses in the communities in which we work,” he said. “In terms of Crib Point, the full details for the offer have yet to be decided. The offer would not usually be made available until a final investment decision is made but we are reviewing this to see if the offer can be brought forward.” Mr Parkinson said any offer by AGL “would need to consider the existing retail offers avail-

able to our customers. In the meantime, our focus is on continuing consultation with the community on our proposal for the gas import jetty.” The review of the discount offer comes as state planning minister Richard Wynne is deciding on the need for AGL and the pipeline layer APA Transmission to undertake full environmental studies into the effects of the gas terminal project at Crib Point. Crib Point resident Tina Bedford says businesses and community enterprises such as schools should consider the long term effects of industrialisation at Crib Point before accepting discounts from AGL. “Crib Point is recovering from past over industrialisation, both environmentally and economically. If the Crib Point Gas Import proposal goes ahead Crib Point will not be an attractive place to live, the town will not thrive, and schools, sporting clubs, and community organisations will continue to struggle,” Ms Bedford states in a letter to The News on page 33. Another resident, Ian Sharp (“Gas in the pipeline” Letters Page 33) blames successive governments for failing to ensure supplies to gas-rich Australia. He says there are gas pipelines being constructed which could supply gas to Victoria and that governments should renegotiate contracts to make sure Australia does not continue to be in “the ridiculous position of having to import gas from overseas”.

the community and Western Port’s fragile environment,” Mr Knowles said. “Serious concerns were expressed about the likelihood of a gas explosion affecting Crib Point and Hastings, similar to that which occurred in three towns north of Boston in the US last Friday (14 September) sparking such newspaper headlines as ‘It looked like Armageddon’ and ‘Towns on fire, dozens of gas explosions, and mass evacuations’. “The very vocal audience made it loud and clear that they were not going cop the same situation happening to our community by chanting Say no to AGL and Dump AGL, to encourage people who are signed with AGL as their energy providers to cancel it. Candy Spender van Rood said members of Save Westernport would show their opposition to the planned FSRU at AGL’s annual general meeting at the Recital Centre in Melbourne between 9.45am and 11am on 26 September. “A group of us in the community will be going together on a bus, and alongside Environment Victoria and Friends of the Earth,” she said.

REPRESENTATIVES of power company AGL on Saturday 15 September were met with chants and informed questions about their employer’s plans to moor a floating gas conversion plant at Crib Point. The 300 metre long floating storage and regasification unit (FSRU) – if allowed to operate at Crib Point – will use seawater to turn imported liquefied natural gas back into gas before being piped to Pakenham. Save Westernport member Rod Knowles said “emotions were running high” at the AGL-arranged information session held at the RW Stone Pavilion, Somers. “The drop-in session was seen by AGL as an opportunity to explain to the local residents the effects on the community and Western Port of their gas import project involving a floating storage regasification unit being moored at Crib Point and a 60 kilometre pipeline through residential and agricultural food growing properties to Pakenham,” Mr Knowles said. He said the estimated 70 people at the session “grilled” AGL representatives for more than two hours. “Most people present saw AGL’s project as an opportunistic move by them to further increase their already massive profits at the expense of

Call to ease the lot of rough sleepers will be calling on the major parties to adopt its recommendations, which includes adding 3000 social housing properties a year for 10 years, with 1500 being one-and-two bedroom houses for singles, couples or small families. Other recommendations include supporting renters by paying back rental arrears and providing more legal advice and support; helping those exiting prison and psychiatric units to move into housing rather than remaining homeless, and providing dedicated housing stock and intensive support for rough sleepers “like they do in Finland”. The council wants a greater focus on youth homelessness, which makes up 40 per cent of the figures in Victoria. It wants rent subsidies for young people leaving refuges, raising the age of young people exiting state care from 18 to 21, and more youth refuges. On census night, 410 people were counted as homeless in Frankston – with 46 per cent being women. Twenty-two per cent of Frankston’s homeless are under 25 and 25 per cent are aged 55-plus. “This data makes it clear that homelessness is not just a city problem,” Council to Homeless Persons acting CEO Kate Colvin said. “Skyrocketing rents and a lack of social housing is driving homelessness in every electorate in Victoria. “But there are solutions to overcome the crisis. With the right measures in place, we know we can prevent most homelessness, quickly rehouse people who lose their homes, and keep people housed long-term. “We’ve developed a blueprint for solving homelessness and now we’re looking for the political leadership to implement it.”

Stephen Taylor steve@mpnews.com.au

FRANKSTON is the third worst electorate for rough sleeping of all of the state’s 88 electorates, as well as the eighth worst for people living in rooming houses. The Nepean region – from Rye to Portsea – is the fifth worst regional electorate for “severe crowding” out of all 33 regional electorates. Severe crowding is defined by the Australian Bureau of Statistics as a house where at least four extra bedrooms would be needed to accommodate the occupants. Many have multiple families living under one roof, or multiple adults and children sharing sleeping areas. Mornington is the 29th worst regional electorate for rough sleeping out of all 33 regional electorates and the 18th worst for rooming houses, and Hastings is the 13th worst regional electorate for rough sleeping and 17th worst regional electorate for couch-surfing. The figures come from the Council to Homeless Persons. It has released a Homelessness Heat Map which reveals an emerging corridor of homelessness running from Melbourne’s west into the city and along the south eastern metropolitan corridor. It cites the electorates of Melbourne and Footscray as ranking first and second for rough sleeping. The council says that the 69 per cent increase in stamp duty collected by the state government over the past five years – “amounting to $2.8 billion” – could be directed towards solving Victoria’s “homelessness and affordable housing crisis”.

Shackleton now on show THE Escape from Antarctica exhibition being shown by the Hastings-Western Port Historical Society focuses on the life and work of British explorer Sir Ernest Shackleton, right, whose expedition to Antarctica turned out to be one of the greatest survival stories of all time. More than 100 years ago, Shackleton set out on a bold plan to cross the frozen continent from coast to coast via the South Pole. His quest was steeped in the grand traditions of the British Empire and the glories that would come to the first to achieve the epic feat. With his ship trapped in the ice and crushed, Shackleton’s party drifted on ice floes and sailed an open boat hundreds of kilometres over Antarctic waters to reach safety. His skill and courage in leading his men against impossible odds have led him to become a role model for leadership courses at institutions around the world. Visitors to the exhibition, being put on with the help of the Australian National Maritime Museum, will view a collection of first-hand accounts and dramatic images taken by Australian photographer Frank Hurley. The venue is the Hastings-Western Port Historical Society museum, corner of Marine

Ready to ride: Rhys Buzza, Hayden Fenn, Gregory Pratt and Scott Lovegreen are aiming to raise $5000 for rod safety programs by cycling 1200 kilometres in Western Australia. Picture: Supplied

On the road for student safety Parade and Skinner Street, Hastings. The exhibition runs until Saturday 20 October. Viewing times are 2-4pm Saturdays and Sundays and 10am-noon Wednesdays. School and group visits can be arranged at other times by calling 0416 121 791 or emailing hwphs@outlook.com . Admission: $3 adults, $2 concession and $1 children.

FOUR Mornington Peninsula cyclists will ride 1200km in Western Australia next month to raise $5000 for road safety programs for peninsula school children. Hayden Fenn, 35, of Frankston South, Scott Lovegreen, 43, of Mt Martha, Rhys Buzza, 42, of Mt Martha and Gregory Pratt, 48, of Mornington, plan to take 90 hours to complete the Perth-Albany-Perth ride, 1-4 October, organised by Audax Australia Cycling Club. The men are using the ride to prepare for the world-famous Paris-Brest-Paris epic next year. Fifteen peninsula students from 13 schools met up with The White Bike Foundation founder

Chris Savage last week to wish them luck. The foundation honours Mt Martha teenager Joel Hawkins who died after being knocked off his bike on Nepean Highway, Dromana, in June 2015. Its members deliver bike education to students at Peninsula Grammar and are designing a similar program for Boneo Primary School. “As a daily commuter and a father of teenagers on the Mornington Peninsula I have a keen interest in promoting that cause,” Gregory Pratt said.

False imprisonment A TEENAGER dragged into a car in Langwarrin late last month was lucky to escape injury. Frankston detectives said the 19-year-old Langwarrin man was walking along Tyrone Street, Langwarrin, towards the Warrandyte Road intersection when a light blue Hyundai hatch with three men aboard pulled up beside him, 6.45pm, Saturday 25 August. The two passengers jumped out and pushed the victim into the car and drove off. They made no demands and the victim said he did not know them. When they stopped at the intersection of Claremont Court and Lang Road the victim managed to jump out and the car drove off – with the car door still open. The front seat passenger is described as African, mid-to-late 20s, short, curly black hair, dark jumper and dark jeans; the rear seat passenger as Caucasian, mid-to-late 20s, stocky build, blond shoulder-length hair, short beard and wearing a grey hoodie. No description of the driver was given.

Mulcher raided OFFENDERS jemmied open the door to a large mulching machine on a Wedge Road, Carrum Downs, construction site and stole more than $10,000 in specialist tools, overnight 11-12 September. They had cut the lock to temporary fencing on the site at 4.30am before stealing the tools, as well as sledge hammers, spanners, socket set, die

grinder kit, and cordless drill. Anyone with information on either of these incidents should call Senior Constable Alex Metaxis-Belt, of Frankston CIU, 9784 5555.

Weapons, drugs DETECTIVES allegedly found a hand gun, ammunition, samurai sword, drugs, including methamphetamines, cocaine and steroids, Outlaw Motor Cycle Gang clothing, and what are believed to be stolen war medals, when they raided a Frankston man’s house earlier this month. A Range Rover was also seized. The detectives, members of the Echo Taskforce, arrested the man, 33, in Frankston, Wednesday 12 September. He was charged as part of the ongoing investigation into a home invasion in Hampton Park, 9 September. The charges included aggravated home invasion, intentionally causing injury, making threats to kill, unlawful assault, breaching a firearm prohibition order, possessing a firearm and cartridges, trafficking and possessing methamphetamine and cocaine and testosterone, possessing a prohibited weapon and committing an indictable offence while on bail. The man was also served with a Firearm Prohibition Order. The man appeared at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court last week and was further remanded to a date to be fixed.

Plate watching A NUMBER plate recognition camera, pictured, set up in Mornington-Tyabb Road, Mornington scanned 2506 sets

of plates, 10.30am-1.30pm, Monday 17 September. The operation, run by Mornington and Somerville highway police, detected plates which were unregistered or stolen, as well as registered owners who are unlicensed or required to have alcohol interlock devices fitted. It also advises if the vehicle, or owner, is linked to outstanding sheriff’s fines. Nine drivers were fined for unlicensed or unregistered driving and two will be summonsed to appear at court for driving while suspended. Acting Sergeant Sarah Blackmore, of Mornington police, was pleased with the results. “The public could expect more automatic number plate recognition sites throughout the area in coming months,” she said. “Please drive safely.”

Clue hunt after fire POLICE are appealing for information following a suspicious house fire in Blairgowrie this month. The blaze broke out about 5.30pm on Father’s Day, 2 September, completely destroying the Fawkner Avenue home. No one was inside at the time. Police want to speak to anyone who may have noticed suspi-

cious behaviour leading up to the fire, particularly around Fawkner Avenue, Langdon Avenue, Hughes Road and Point Nepean Road. They are also keen to speak to anyone who may have dash-cam footage between the hours of 5-6.30pm. Natalie Butler, of police media, said anyone with information is urged to contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 or submit a confidential report online at crimestoppersvic.com.au

Fires cause damage POLICE attended to three fires in the past week. A garden shed in Toorak Avenue, Baxter was destroyed when burning leaves set fire to an overhanging branch, 4pm, Wednesday 12 September. The owner tried in vain to extinguish the blaze before calling in the Langwarrin and Somerville CFA brigades. The contents of the shed were lost as was the neighbour’s fence. Emergency services were called to a fire at a house in Norfolk Crescent, Frankston North, 12.30pm, Saturday 15 September. The fire was caused by unattended cooking on the kitchen stove. Ambulance crews treated the resident at the scene for smoke inhalation.

Detective killed

THE policeman killed when hit by a car during a memorial motorcycle ride in Gippsland last week was serving at Somerville. Detective Senior Sergeant Vic Kostiuk, 59, was a member of the Mornington Peninsula family violence

unit based in Eramosa Road West. He died when his motorbike collided with a car on the Princes Highway, near Orbost, Friday 14 September. The driver of the car, Jesse Reid, 21, of Botanic Ridge, later appeared in the Latrobe Valley Magistrates’ Court charged with culpable driving and dangerous driving causing death. He was remanded in custody to appear at the Bairnsdale Magistrates’ Court in January.

Exploitation charges A 63 YEAR old man has been arrested in Seaford following a joint investigation into alleged child exploitation offences. Detectives from Frankston Sexual Offences and Child Abuse Investigation Team and the Joint Anti Child Exploitation Team arrested the man after a warrant was executed at a Seaford property. Police also seized electronic equipment at the scene. The man has been charged with procuring and grooming a child under 16 for sexual activity, using a carriage service to transmit an indecent communication, and breaching his sex offender registration obligations. He has been bailed to appear at Melbourne Magistrates’ Court on Friday 21 September. Anyone who may have any information about people involved in online child sexual exploitation are urged to call Crime Stoppers on 1800 333 000.

Woman injured in crash with police car A POLICE car responding to an “urgent job” last week collided with another car injuring an elderly woman. Both cars sustained significant damage. The Mornington-based Ford Territory police vehicle was travelling along Nepean Highway at the Bungower Road intersection when it ran into the woman’s car as it turned onto Nepean Highway, noon, Wednesday 19 September. Acting Senior Sergeant Brett Cooke, of Mornington police, said the patrol car, with “lights flashing and siren sounding”, had slowed as it entered the intersection. “The middle and right-hand-lane traffic had stopped but the elderly driver, in her 80s, may

not have seen the police car as she turned with the green light and it has run into her,” he said. “She was taken to Frankston Hospital with what we were told were non-life-threatening injuries.” A Mornington Fire Brigade pumper rushed to the scene and the four-man crew “assisted with the clean-up and made the area safe”, station officer Geoff Barker said. Frankston SES deputy controller Shane Double said crews used the Jaws of Life to cut the woman free and assist ambulance officers. No charges were expected to be laid over the collision.

100 YEARS AGO THIS WEEK...

Mornington beat Frankston in football match Compiled by Brodie Cowburn A FOOTBALL match between Frankston and Mornington was played at Mornington on Saturday last, and resulted in a win for the home team by a substantial majority. *** A “BACK to Childhood” dance the proceeds of which will go to the Frankston Roll of Honor fund, will be held in the Frankston Mechanics’ on Saturday (this) evening. Tickets priced at 2s are selling freely, and patrons are assured an enjoyable time. Prizes for the best sustained character, lady and gentlemen, will be given. *** MR J. A. Cameron notifies in another column that he has commenced business as a horseshoer and general blacksmith, in Young street, opposite the station, and solicits a share of public patronage. *** A SALE of gifts in aid of the Frankston Methodist Church will be held in the school ball on Friday next October 4th The function will be opened at 3pm by the President of the shire, Cr. Murray. *** ON Saturday next, October 5th, Messrs A, Scott and Co will conduct a clearing sale on account, of Mr J. P. Stanley on his farm, Stumpy Gully Road, Bittern, when they will offer sheep, horse, buggy, farm implements, household furniture, etc. *** ON Sunday, 6th October, the Hastings Red Cross society and the gen-

eral public will entertain a party of returned soldiers at the Town Hall when it is to be hoped there will be a good attendance of the general public. *** MR and Mrs James Peebles have been notified by the Defence Department that their only son, Driver Roland Peebles who prior to enlistment resided at “Sunnydowns Farm,” Seaford, has been wounded in France and admitted to hospital. *** MESSRS Brody and Mason will hold an extensive cattle sale on Saturday, 5th October, at their yards, Bay street, when they will yard upwards of 100 head of dairy cattle, to the order of Mr T, Reeves (whose lease has expired) and other vendors. The attention of dairymen is directed to this sale, as it is a chance to secure some good dairy cattle that may not occur again for some time. The sale commences at 1.30 sharp. *** ARRANGEMENTS are in progress through the North riding councillors and leading ladies and gentlemen of Frankston, to give a suitable “welcome home” to Lance Corporal Charles Bunney, who has just returned to Frankston after continuous service at the front, of four years. A meeting will be held of all those interesed in making this function a worthy one on (this) Saturday afternoon, at 4 o’clock, in the Mechanics’ Institute. The date for the occasion is, we understand, fixed for Thursday, 3rd October, and the programme will take the form of a social evening. It is safe to assume that the meeting

on Saturday will be largely attended as also will be the very popular movement to give Charley an enthusiastic welcome to his native town after four years of continuous active service abroad. Permission has been obtained for returned soldiers of the district to wear their uniform for the meeting. *** THE Frankston Progress Association made its debut as a factor in the improvement of the town on Saturday, September 14th, by moving the old fence from the eastern side of the Mornington road. Seven workers lined up under the direction of Mr Frank Wells, and put in some solid work. Mr Millard came with his waggon and five-horse team, and moved two heavy loads of timber to the Shire yard where it was stacked for future use. Seven ladies, very thoughtfully, arrived during the work, well supplied with afternoon tea. They were disappointed to find only seven workers to consume their dainties but they soon found that each had a capable appetite. *** AT a meeting of the Returned Soldiers Association of South Australia the following resolution war passed: “The Red Cross, Trench Comforts, Y,M,C,A, Army Department & other like bodies controlling funds created for the purpose of providing those extra comforts which alleviate the hardships of the soldier and make his life more endurable are recognised as organisations which can legitimately and to the safety and welfare of the

A rooster hasn’t got a lot of intellect to show, but none the less most roosters have enough good sense to crow. The mule the most despised of beasts, has a presistent way of letting people know he’s around by his insistent bray. The busy little bees they buzz, bulls bellow and cows moo, and doves and pigeons coo. The peacock spreads his tail and squawks; pigs squeal and robins sing, and even serpents know enough to hiss before they sting. But man, the greatest masterpiece that Nature could devise, will often stop and hesitate before he’ll advertise. *** WANTED TO SELL - Potatoes, good Seed, 6s per Bag.

THE MEANING OF EXISTENCE... AND OTHER SHORT STORIES

The Man Who Knew Too Much About Dinner By Stuart McCullough IGNORANCE may not be bliss, but it can help keep your appetite. Although we live in an information age where almost anything is a keystroke away, it’s sometimes better not to know. Kind of like Marty McFly, knowing too much affects the choices you make. Last week, I made the fatal mistake of looking up the name of the restaurant I was going to be eating at and, as a result, knew so much that it threatened to disturb the space-time continuum to say nothing of the fact that it totally put me off my dinner. I love travelling through regional Victoria. There are wonderful things to see, great people to meet and the food, frankly, is often terrific. But there are exceptions. On this particular evening, I was booked into the local pub for dinner. Let me say that I’ve had some pretty wonderful meals at country pubs. Eager to know what I was in for, I made the fateful mistake of looking it up on ‘Trip Advisor’. When it comes to the Internet, there’s always the risk of a rogue review. However, in this instance there was a clear consensus that I was about to take my life in my hands. There were a lot of ‘one star’ reviews. As a general rule, any restaurant review that features the word ‘grubby’ in the title is not going to inspire enthusiasm. One review had the confidence-busting title ‘Avoid Unless Desperate’. Other reviews had titles the spanned the darker side of the emotional palette including pity, with one review entitled ‘Oh Dear’, through to despair (the somewhat to the point ‘Disgusting food’) and the downright pragmatic (‘If You Need a

PAGE 32

Southern Peninsula News

Meal’). These were just the titles. The content of the reviews were no more encouraging. It would be fair to say that they criticized everything. The décor (‘drab’, ‘rundown’), the distance to the front bar (‘miles away’) and the 25 September 2018

staff (variously described as either ‘untrained’ or ‘disinterested’) – nothing escaped the gaze of those who’d submitted a review. It’d be fair to say, however, that most of the vitriol was reserved for the food itself. Without going in to too much detail, it’d be

fair to describe the reviews as being on the harsh side. Oddly, though, one of the reviews that described the food as pretty much inedible, went on to praise the portion size. The general gist seemed to be that although the food was terrible, as least they weren’t being stingy about it; as though being served more food you’re not enjoying might somehow be a good thing. I am nothing if not agile. I might have had a booking, but it didn’t mean I needed to keep it. I could, so I reasoned, always go somewhere else. I quickly did a search for all the restaurants serving dinner in the local area. The results were, I have to say, somewhat underwhelming, to put it mildly. According to Trip Advisor, there were only three restaurants in town. One had garnered the reviews that had prompted my search in the first place. Another was closed. The third was a petrol station. The options, it seemed, were very limited. There was nothing much to do other than update my will and head out for dinner. Sometimes the Internet is an echo chamber, where lunatics go to spew bile and generally be obnoxious. Sometimes, however, it is eerily accurate. As I entered the hotel, something in my soul told me that the folks on Trip Advisor might have erred on the side of generosity. There must have been a dozen tables in the dining room. Two were occupied. Aside from the fact that it was sparsely populated, the other thing I noticed was how cold the room was. It was as though they’d decided there was no point in even turning the heaters on.

I ordered from the register, only to discover that to use the eftpos machine, I had to journey to the front bar. This was a voyage through labyrinthine passageways to a small, dim-lit room stuffed with men who were – by any measure – very, very drunk. Suffice to say, they were not three sheets to the wind so much as they were an entire Adairs superstore. That the sun had barely dropped out the sky made it seem all the more desperate. Upon returning to the dining room, I chose a seat next to the fireplace, even though there was no fire to speak of. Perhaps it was wishful thinking on my part. When my meal arrived, it was clear that this was something to be endured rather than enjoyed. The scalloped potatoes had congealed and tasted like rubber. The beans looked as though they had just been defrosted before being boiled until all the colour fell out. The chicken parmagiana was as stiff as a piece of cardboard. Were I to write my own Trip Advisor review, it would probably recommend giving the servo a try. As I was leaving, I noticed a plaque on the wall of the hotel, declaring that this was the site of the town’s very first medical clinic. It was hard not to think that this was in direct response to the menu. As unpleasant as it was, I survived the experience and lived to tell the tale. I haven’t posted my review on Trip Advisor yet; I’m taking my time. That’s because revenge is a dish best served cold and certainly not with a plate of congealed scalloped potatoes. stuart@stuartmccullough.com

Put Crib Point’s future before AGL ‘discounts’ Crib Point is recovering from past over-industrialisation, both environmentally and economically. If the Crib Point gas Import proposal goes ahead Crib Point will not be an attractive place to live, the town will not thrive and schools, sporting clubs, and community organisations will continue to struggle. For the sustainable growth of clubs, schools and town, maintaining and promoting environmental assets is what will attract families to Crib Point that have the ability to support sporting clubs and schools, and it will have a chance to grow and flourish. Clubs and schools should make a stand based on the project proposal and not AGL’s money, designed not to recompense for what they are taking but to buy your approval and silence. Schools and sporting clubs truly build a town’s social capital. They are pivotal to a community and should be supported, but please think long term and build upon the assets that attract real money to the area long term and not be hoodwinked by short term gain. It is imperative that schools model the environmental values we need our young people to adopt. Supporting AGL’s project by accepting AGL’s money sends the opposite message to young people and supporting fossil fuels is not their future. It is a school’s job to teach our kids that looking after our planet is a number one priority for humanity. Be the solution, not the problem. Please, schools and sporting clubs, do not engage AGL with dollars in your eyes and what they can do for you. Look at what AGL wants to do with Crib Point and decide if that’s what you want the town to become. You will never get it back if you sell it to AGL. Tina Bedford, Somers Editor: In June AGL announced that small businesses in Hastings, Crib Point, Bittern and towns along the 60 kilometre pipeline route Pakenham “can look forward to a community energy offer delivering guaranteed discounts on AGL’s electricity and gas prices, should the project proceed” (“Contracts ‘advance’ AGL’s gas plan” The News 13/6/18).

Gas in the pipeline At the AGL information session in Somers on Saturday afternoon (15 September) an environmental lawyer made the point that only one project has ever been knocked back in Victoria on environmental grounds (extending a gold mine under Stawell). Food for thought. Should we be considering this project in the still relatively pristine Western Port? What’s the need? The gas market and supply system in Australia is clearly mucked up. We are one of the largest gas exporters in the world, yet we have somehow got ourselves into a position where a critical domestic shortage of

gas is predicted by some in the next few years. In Victoria our offshore gas fields are reaching the end of their lives, and the Victorian government has banned onshore gas development. So why not get gas from other states? Unfortunately, the huge gas fields of Western Australia are not connected by pipeline to the east coast, so all the east coast states are facing a possible shortage. A similar floating gas plant is planned for Port Kembla, NSW. However, currently a pipeline is being laid from Tennant Creek to Mt Isa. Google “Australian gas pipelines” for maps that show this is a game-changer: NT gas will be able to be sold into the east coast gas grid. Surely there is potential here to ensure there will be no shortage of gas that warrants the AGL Western Port proposal. Finally, if all else fails, it comes down to political will. Our governments being prepared to renegotiate the contracts with the production and export companies to ensure we don’t finish up in the ridiculous position of having to import gas from overseas. Ian Sharp, Somers

Useful seaweed In the article “Shire rejects dog leash free beach” (The News 11/9/18) a beachgoer suggests Mornington Peninsula Council should clean up the beach of seaweed, rubbish, plastic, dead puffer fish, remove heavy rocks and attend to the foreshore shrubbery. If this idea was to include all the beaches where would the council - with more than 190 kilometres of coastline - start? Not to mention the cost to ratepayers. Studies show seaweed on the shore is part of a huge ecosystem. Tonnes can arrive on any beach, at any given tide (no matter how much front end loading and trucking away) and be gone on the next tide or it can hang around for a while. Here in Western Port it’s fascinating to see the various sea plants washed ashore and all the creatures that make the most of it while it’s laying there. The poor puffer fish is a wonderful creature to see underwater. Once on the beach, a natural cemetery, they decay gradually to feed the biodiversity of the shoreline. Our local beach is quite clean. A walk now would see me looking for rubbish, rather than looking at it, thanks to a number of silent unknown guerrilla-style beachgoers who clean as they walk, placing it in a bag and emptying to a bin. Some even take it home to recycle. Dog poo left behind by irresponsible owners can sometimes outdo the rubbish. Maybe if a foreshore friends group was started at Safety Beach, the shrubbery you have concerns with could be attended to and with huge support from council, as we have found. We, with or without dogs, are just visitors to any beach. It is home to everything else there

but us. We should all leave it as we found it and bring rubbish home. John Blogg, Somers

Shelter off the plan It is exciting news that the Premier Daniel Andrews has promised, if re-elected, that the state Labor government would spend $562 million extending Frankston Hospital (“Labor pledge for hospital” The News 18/9/18). As taxpayers we need to question: How does the government know that it is getting value for money? The $13 million spent on the new bus hub at Frankston station could not possibly be value for money. It has many failings. The bus shelters (mis-named?) are too small, seating just four people at the busy Bay D, thus not providing shelter from blazing sun or pouring rain. The new road is, in places, too narrow for buses to pass. Mornington MP David Morris has raised the question about the inadequacy of the shelters in Parliament and I regard Transport Minister Jacinta Allan’s reply as completely erroneous when she stated that it was “a safer environment for pedestrians”. Just the opposite is occurring as people take shelter under the shop awnings opposite and have to run across the road when they see their bus approaching. The opportunity was there for a state-of-theart covered bus station leading off from the new train station. The inadequacy of this bus station needs to be admitted to and improvements and alterations made. We live in hope. Brenda Rowlands, Mt Eliza

Fairness for refugees I wholeheartedly agree with Ann Renkin (“Bring refugees” Letters 18/9/18). These people have done nothing wrong other than trying to escape oppression from war-torn countries only to find oppression and incarceration at the hands of a so-called Christian Rudd, Gillard, Rudd, Abbott, Turnbull, Morrison federal governments. Yes, the refugees can return to their country of origin at the Australian taxpayers’ expense, but would the Michael Longs (“Sensible policies” Letters 18/9/18) of this world return their family into the possibility of having their families killed? I don’t think so. The disastrous and chaotic situation regarding refugees in Europe is purely in the minds of the racist extreme right. Most people throughout the world have empathy towards the plight of these pitiful victims of tyranny and terror. When I spoke out against racism some time back, I received an inane uninformed suggestion that I should leave the country of my birth of 76 years ago and go elsewhere if didn’t like racism. To these unfeeling people in Australia, I quote a couple of lines from our national anthem: Our land abounds in nature’s gifts of beauty rich and fair/ For those who’ve come across the seas, we’ve boundless plains to share. I for one prefer my grandkids be open and accepting, not narrow-minded insular individuals. May we never be put in the same position as a refugee. John Cain, McCrae

First responders With recent disclosure of the trauma emergency

service workers (paramedics, police, protective service officers, fire-fighters, SES workers magistrates, in fact any profession dealing with human frailty) perhaps they could after a limited time, say a year, take regular breaks and do other duties within their chosen profession. This work would be done without loss of seniority and pay. Also, when annual leave or long service leave is due it should be taken as soon as possible, so they have a real break from what must be sometimes shocking and inhumane behaviour they witness and deal with in the course of their professional duties. Both the state government and the opposition have announced sweeping reforms to workplace mental health claims and grants of up to $10,000 to Victoria’s first responders dealing with PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) are positive responses to the ongoing problems faced by these dedicated professionals. Denise Hassett, Mt Martha

Political amnesia I saw Flinders MP Greg Hunt on TV commenting on the royal commission into aged care (announced by the Prime Minister Scott Morrison on Sunday 16 September). Like, the federal government is on the ball and initiated this for the good of the people. I am sure these politicians cannot recollect the thousands of complaints they have received on this problem and the numerous newspaper articles on it and the petitions they have received. It took the good old ABC to get something done so is it any wonder why they want to shut down the ABC or sell it to News Corp? I wonder if they would be as willing to sell ABC to The Guardian? Joe Lenzo, Safety Beach Editor: Mr Hunt, who is also Health Minister, issued a news release last Thursday (20 September) saying the royal commission followed “intensified policing and inspections of the aged sector over the past year [and] information has come to light through the Aged Care Complaints Commissioner, the Australian Aged Care Quality Agency and the Department of Health that makes the case for a royal commission into the sector compelling”.

Ageing disastrously The ABC TV program Four Corners revealed how disastrously our old are treated in many of our aged care facilities. The fact that our federal government, with a face full of egg, called a royal commission even before the program went to air, shows us all how badly the controls of this once mostly community run, but now mostly privatised sector, are. It seems profit is the main aim of this often rogue corporatised section of our care for the old. This whole sad affair confirms my suspicions that any privatising of public service can only lead to a deterioration of the service and lead to ever greater cost to the taxpayer, as we have seen with so many other public institutions. Contrary to the mantra of the free marketeers, every time our governments flog another of our institutions and infrastructure we, the people, pay more, and get less service. Rupert Steiner, Balnarring Beach

Division One: A season in review DIVISION ONE

By Brodie Cowburn Sorrento SORRENTO bounced back brilliantly from their early season dramas, which saw coach Tony Blackford replaced Luke Tapscott in rushed circumstances. The Sharks had an excellent home and away season and looked unbeatable at times, before running out of steam at the wrong time during finals. Despite a disappointing after the siren Grand Final loss, Sorrento can take pride in the fact that they proved themselves this season with their new Peninsula league opponents. In Mitch Hallahan, James Hallahan, and Luke Tapscott they boast an impressive midfield, who provided great service to their quality tall timber all year. Things went pear shaped towards the end of the season, as Chris Dawes injuries reared their head late in the game, with his impact in the Grand Final being minimal. Despite that, they got as close as possible to a premiership as any team can, and should be out for revenge next year. Mt Eliza HAVING finished second, Mt Eliza will be devastated to have not played on Grand Final day this year. An early matchup against a red hot Pines was always going to be a tough ask, but the Redlegs were completely outclassed in their first final. From there the Redlegs narrowly survived a big scare from the Stonecats before succumbing to Sorrento in a fairly comfortable preliminary final loss. Despite the anticlimactic finals series there was plenty of positives to be taken from the 2018 season. Jordan Moncrieff cemented himself as one of the best full forwards in the league, and Luca Goonan emerged as one the league’s most prominent youngsters. Blaine Coates also had a fantastic year for the Redlegs, while they were one of the best defensive sides in the competition. The Redlegs may find it difficult to bounce back next year, and will have to adapt to life under a new coach. Troy Shannon departed at the end of the season and Mt Eliza are currently assessing their options. Pines IT was the perfect end to a season that just got better as it went on for the Pines. Given their last 12 months it is hard to believe that Pines stood tall as premiers at the end of the campaign. The year started poorly for the Pythons, with off field dramas regarding their coaching position threatening to send their upcoming season into disarray. Coach Patty Swayn nearly found himself on the outer, but survived to fight another day. The popular figure proved any doubters wrong with a stunning season, which resulted with him lifting the cup on Grand Final day. After a narrow nine point loss to the Sharks at the beginning of the year, Pines well and truly had Sorrento’s number throughout the remainder of the season. A run of nine consecutive wins at the end of the year made them well and truly the form team in the competition by the time Pines’ final bout with the Sharks came about, and they proved just too strong in the end. Pines earned some more silverware off the field as well, as 40 year old Paul Scanlon claimed the league best and fairest award for 2018 to cap off a stunning year for his football club.

Walking away with the chocolates: Pines beat Sorrento to break a two decade long premiership drought. Picture: Andrew Hurst

Edithvale-Aspendale A FIRST week finals exit was a bitterly disappointing end to a strong season for the Eagles. Experienced campaigner Graeme Yeats led his team to second on the ladder going into the finals, before a few late losses saw them forced to face an elimination final. From there the Stonecats took them down, and their finals campaign was brought to an extremely premature end. A major issue for the Eagles was their lack of avenues to goal. Their highest goalscorer for the year was Michael Bussey with just 21, as their star goal kicker Tom Lamb spent the year playing at VFL level. With stars like Steve Mannix plying their trade for the Eagles, the side has just one missing piece left. To improve on their result this season the Eagles need to look to find a gun target inside forward 50. Frankston YCW IT’S been a complicated season of mixed fortunes for the Stonecats, who recovered from a horror run in the middle of the year to just scrape into the finals series. With the divisional football shakeup at the start of the year there was always going to be some teams that struggled worse than usual, but few would have expected the struggles of the Stonecats. The change hurt them, and the status quo they had established so firmly over the last decade was upset. Injuries were the biggest issue facing the Stonecats, as their big name players 25 September 2018

dropped like flies when they went nearly two months without a win. After a full preseason and with a clean bill of health, the Stonecats are very likely to bounce back up into premiership contention next season. Frankston Bombers IT was a decent year for Frankston in 2018, but ultimately the Bombers fell a game outside of a finals place. Faced with the extra challenge of moving over from the Nepean league, there were plenty of positives for the Bombers, but ultimately a finals spot would have been expected from last year’s Grand Finalists. One talking point of their year has been the form of star man Jarrad Grant, who has suffered from an up and down season. Grant has been used in a utility role throughout the year, and has rarely found himself settled as a pure forward or playing through midfield. At his best he is unbeatable, but he’ll have to find some more consistency. Jarrad Grant did not poll a single vote at the league best and fairest. Dale Sutton was the standout for the Bombers throughout the year, with his form putting him second on league best and fairest night. Four straight losses to end the year, although to tough opponents, will be the biggest source of frustration for coach Beau Muston. Bonbeach AFTER making it to the big dance in 2017, there would have been big expectation on the Sharks to bite back from

their bad Grand Final loss and make a splash in 2018. Unfortunately for Bonbeach the season got started on the wrong foot, and they found themselves out of touch with finals for most of the season. A late run at the end of the year was encouraging and put them in contention, but their chances were quickly scuppered. Trent Dennis-Lane was the shining light for Bonbeach, putting on some of the best individual performances of any player this season. His bags of goals gave the Sharks supporters something to cheer about, and Dennis-Lane will be continuing on next year with the additional responsibilities of being co-coach. If there’s a man you want to build your club around, it’s Trent Dennis-Lane.

Rosebud IT’S been a difficult year for Rosebud, but they managed to avoid last place. This means their spot in Division One for next season has been confirmed. Rosebud are the 2015 premiers, and were only a couple of goals away from another Nepean league Grand Final last season. Unfortunately this year they struggled to back up that form, and spent a lot of the season near the bottom of the ladder. Next year represents a strong chance to rebuild, with their biggest off season move already announced. Adrian McBean will depart from the head coach role next season, and club legend Nick Jewell will make his return.

Mornington FINISHING off in eight place, it’s been a big year of improvement from the Bulldogs. The year got started on a positive note when they announced that club legend Simon Goosey would be returning to coach after spending a season in charge at the Cranbourne Football Club. Goosey’s focus on youth saw his side play an impressive brand of football, and they even notched a win against Mt Eliza. The club put plenty of games into young players, and in Jackson Calder they have one of the premier forwards in the competition. They ran the best sides down to the wire in 2018, and only lost narrowly to Sorrento, Edi-Asp, and Frankston YCW. They could push on into finals next season.

Seaford MPNFL have confirmed the makeup for next season, and with Cranbourne now confirmed as not entering the competition, the 10 team structure will be retained for next year. Seaford will be going down to Division Two with Dromana moving the other way. A year that started with a thrilling win over eventual premiers Pines quickly derailed, and Seaford were rooted to the bottom of the ladder for most of the season. Despite their tough year they are still a side of great quality, with Damien Rayson finishing among the top five in the league best and fairest. Their Division Two competition will be very wary of them in 2019.

Skelly in, Armour out, Morrison back SOCCER

By Craig MacKenzie THE silly season exploded into action last week with Jamie Skelly, Billy Armour and Scott Morrison taking a spin on the annual coaching merry-goround. And more local clubs will join in shortly with newly created coaching vacancies at Peninsula Strikers and Skye United, Baxter still searching for a senior coach and rumours of change at Frankston Pines. Skelly was appointed assistant to Scott Miller at Langwarrin last week. He is a former Langy player, reserves coach and senior assistant who has now finished a second stint as senior coach of Peninsula Strikers. “This is an opportunity to further my development as a coach and the chance to work under someone who has worked at a professional level,” Skelly said. “No (coaching) course is going to give me that experience.” Miller, Skelly and technical director Stephen Fisher will select an under-20s coach this week but the club already has settled on its other junior NPL coaching positions. Confirmed appointees are Francis Beck and Johnny Martin (two under-12 teams), Andy Duckett (under13s), Gary Brisbane (under-14s), Donn Delaney (under-15s), Dougie Hodgson (under-16s) and Michael Van der Zwet (under-18s). Former Baxter senior coach Beck has also been appointed junior goalkeeping coach. Langwarrin plans to be an active player in the transfer market and has aggressively pursued a number of targets recently with a series of announcements expected in coming weeks. The main talk last weekend was that former Langy midfielders Callum Goulding and Thomas Ahmadzai have agreed terms along with Dandenong Thunder keeper Fraser Maclaren and Bulleen winger Jordan Templin but Langy is yet to confirm these signings. Goalkeeper Robbie Acs was told last week that he was no longer required and many of his 2018 teammates could suffer a similar fate. One of the losing candidates for the Langy assistant position was Kevin “Squizzy” Taylor but the former Westgate senior coach and Bentleigh Greens under-20s gaffer is now one of the most sought after coaches on the market with three local clubs and Eastern Lions all keen to speak to him. In State 1 South-east news Morning-

ton has been busy pursuing players as recently returned senior coach Adam Jamieson plans to take the club into the NPL for the 2020 season. Hot on the heels of Amir Osmancevic’s signing comes news that the club is keen to bring Eastern Lions keeper Kile Kennedy and Langwarrin defender Andy McIntyre to Dallas Brooks Park. Mornington held its presentation night last Friday with Jamie Cummings winning the best player and players’ player awards in the seniors while Jack Heseltine did the double in the reserves. In State 2 South-East news Peninsula Strikers held their presentation night last weekend with Oscar Marsden named best and fairest while Alex Van Heerwarden won the players’ player of the year award despite only joining the club in the second half of the season. Ash Hupe did the double in the reserves winning both the best and fairest and the players’ player of the year awards. Opinion is divided as to whether or not Skelly’s departure will trigger a player exodus at Strikers but there is a strong rumour that Van Heerwarden and English striker John Prescott will try out at Langy. Strikers’ president Trevor Johnston

is yet to decide whether or not he will stand for re-election but the club will start the interview process for a new senior coach this week. In State 3 South-East news Skye United dropped a bombshell last week when it told Armour that he wouldn’t be reappointed as senior coach for the coming season. Armour was appointed in May 2015 and came out of retirement to save Skye from relegation that year. In 2016 he led the club to the State 4 South championship and has twice gone close to promotion from State 3 with a fourth-placed finish last year and third this year. Armour was unavailable for comment and Skye would not elaborate on the reasons for his sacking. “We parted ways amicably with Billy and we would like it known that we are extremely grateful for everything he has done for us and wish him all the best in his future endeavours,” vicepresident Stuart Lawrence said. Skye advertised the position last week and Armour’s assistant Billy Rae will not be applying although it’s believed that the club will hold talks with him about his plans for next season. Steve Babbage remains senior women’s coach with Lee Evans assisting. Armour already has been linked to

the vacant coaching position at another local club. In State 5 South news Somerville Eagles announced last week that Morrison and star striker Dave Greening will be joint senior coaches for 2019 with Stan Packer reappointed as an assistant. Morrison, Greening and Packer were involved in the success of Rosebud Heart and it comes as no surprise that they are again working together. Morrison stepped away from coaching at the end of the 2017 season and spurned overtures from Seaford United in the first half of last season to concentrate on his personal life. “The year off was a really enjoyable one. My son Archie played his first year of football for Langy under ‘Pooley’ and ‘Caff’ and it was great to watch him develop and love the game the way I do,” Morrison said. “I was able to watch lots of local games which was great but as the season progressed it really made me miss coaching and reignited the fire in the belly.” So when Greening approached him just over six weeks ago about becoming involved at Somerville the timing was perfect. “Since day one at the Heart Dave and myself had a great relationship.

He has an amazing football brain and obviously his record on the park is astounding. “Somerville has set some big goals for the next few years and some brilliant people are running the club so I can really see us going places quickly. “I’m excited about the challenge ahead and can’t wait to get stuck into pre-season. “Look we’ll be kidding ourselves if we think we can just roll up and it will happen for us because it’s going to take a lot of hard work to get out of State 5 but I think the players and the coaching staff will be up for it.” The only match involving a local club last weekend ended in heartbreak for Southern United when it went down 2-1 to Calder United in the NPLW under-14 grand final at ABD Stadium in Broadmeadows. A missed tackle inside Southern’s defensive third allowed Calder captain Olivia Anderson to open the scoring in the 5th minute. Five minutes later Southern winger Danica Vukcevic cut inside and played the ball to captain Sage Kirby whose first-time strike made it 1-1. In the dying seconds of the half a Tayla Gonzalez free-kick went straight through the hands of Southern keeper Candy Vakacavu for what was to be the decisive goal. Southern enjoyed the bulk of possession in the second half but despite an outstanding display by Kirby and fellow midfielder Alessandra Davis the 2018 league champion couldn’t find a way past Calder keeper Keara Calafiore. Meanwhile Thursday’s annual general meeting at Monterey Reserve is looming as one of the most important events in the history of recently relegated Frankston Pines. Hamdija “Boz” Osmancevic took over as interim president after Gary Hodgson stood down from the role a few weeks ago. Osmancevic is keen to remain president and has been busy organising a coaching and playing budget for next season. There’s one hitch though. Osmancevic wants to handpick his committee and with the exception of club stalwart Tommy Mitchell it is believed that he does not want to work with many of the current committee members. However some of the incumbents have an opposing view of how the club should be run. The main event gets underway at 7pm sharp.

Top finish: Moorooduc under-12s score the club’s first ever grand final victory on Saturday 8 September. Picture: Supplied

Moorooduc snap-up historic win MOOROODUC Junior Football Club celebrated their first ever grand final victory on Saturday 8 September as their under-12s enjoyed a strong win over Mt Martha in the MPJFL grand final. Moorooduc, who joined the MPJFL four seasons ago, had another three teams competing across the league, but it was the under-12s side which landed the historical moment. Having been defeated by Mt Martha in the second semi-final, Moorooduc had to play Red Hill in the preliminary

final before making their way back into the grand final. After scoring a victory over Red Hill, Moorooduc came up with a new game plan against Mt Martha who had beaten them previously, and it clearly paid off. Moorooduc led from start to finish and were never headed in the grand final, eventually securing a four goal victory. Moorooduc Junior Football Club president Wayne Holdsworth said it was a massive achievement for the

side and the club as a whole. “We had big celebrations back at the club on the Saturday night with a few videos of the game and the highlights from the day,” he said. “All the players from the team and many other juniors from some of the other teams came back with their families to celebrate the season. It was probably the busiest night we’ve had at the club.” Holdsworth said it had been a “good season” all-round for the under-12s side with three of their players, Oskar

McDermott (third), Mac Holdsworth (fifth) and Gabe Bieber (ninth), all polling in the top 10 of the league’s ‘best and fairest’ award. The under-12s coach David Cross was also awarded the MPJFL Coach Of The Year. Moorooduc, who had four teams competing this season, is hoping to have a further two sides competing next year. Other MPJFL grand final victors were: Under-11s Girls – Tyabb, Boys

Navy – Red Hill and Boys White Dromana ; Under-12s Boys Navy – Mt Martha and Boys White - Moorooduc; Under-13s Girls – Mt Martha, Boys White – Somerville and Boys Navy – Mt Martha; Under-14s Boys White – Rosebud and Boys Navy - Rye; Under15s Girls White – Pearcedale/Baxter, Girls Navy – Mt Martha and Boys - Beleura; Under-16s Boys Navy – Mt Martha and Boys White - Dromana; Under- 17s Boys – Pearcedale/Baxter; Under-18s Girls Navy – Mt Eliza and Girls White – Seaford.

Nichols follows right path with Star MORNINGTON-based trainer, Shane Nichols, has been rewarded for sticking tough with, I Am A Star, as the gallant mare dug deep to claim the Group Two Let’s Elope Stakes (1400m) at Flemington on Saturday 15 September. While plans of sending the mare to stud were contemplated following I Am A Stars plain autumn preparation, Nichols, with the persuasion of I Am A Star’s owner, Matthew Sandblom, decided to give her another attempt in the spring. Nichols was stoked to see the decision pay dividends. “It was an outstanding result,” he said. “She’s reached great heights and had some times where things weren’t easy. She didn’t come up in the autumn, but Matthew Sandblom was good enough to give her some time, so we turned her out and put her in the paddock. “We were run-to-run for the start of the prep but because we had time she could have a run or two and if she failed well then we could send her to stud, but that was a great result.” The win was the mares seventh at Stakes level and while I Am A Star lugged the top-weight (58kg) into

heavy winds, her determination pulled through once again, holding out the Team Hawkes-trained galloper Bella Martini in a photo finish. “I’m really pleased with her, she’s not big but she’s tough,” Nichols added. Jockey Ben Melham was also full of positivity following I Am A Star’s performance. “She jumped well and I knew she had the big weight and I was mindful of the wind,” he said. “It was quite ferocious so it was a good, tough win. They were terrible conditions but she’s a good horse and did the job well.” I Am A Star will head to the Group Two Stocks Stakes (1600m) at Moonee Valley on Friday 28 September, and Nichols was upbeat about her chances when dropping back to the same weight as the other mares. “She’s won a Stocks Stakes and the Sunline at Moonee Valley over the mile so I’d think on that she’s going to be pretty hard to beat again,” he said.

Scanlan hits fourth, lands Olympic quota FRANKSTON Australia Clay Target Club shooter, Laetisha Scanlan, has finished in fourth position at the ISSF World Championships in Changwon, South Korea on Thursday 6 September. The eagle-eyed shooter took part in a strong Ladies Trap competition which shot higher scores than the men’s competition did in the finals. In finishing fourth, Scanlan also secured an Olympic quota for Australia ahead of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. Frankston Australia Clay Target Club secretary Jane Vella said the Ladies Trap competition was “absolutely fierce”. “The ladies’ shot scores greater than the men, and that just goes to show how strong the women’s competition was over there,” Vella said. “Laetisha said that it was very hot and very humid over there, but she seemed to have enjoyed it quite a lot.” Scanlan also competed in the Mixed Trap competition alongside fellow Australian, James Willett, and just missed out on making finals after

going down in a shoot-off. Willett happened to also finish fourth in the men’s competition, also gaining an Olympic quota for Australia. While Scanlan has gained an Olympic quota, it doesn’t guarantee her a spot in the Australian Olympic Team. To try and secure her spot, Scanlan will prepare for several selection events which will be held by Shooting Australia next year. The first selection event for the Tokyo Olympics will be the Australian National Championships which get underway in January. Scanlan also has the option of competing in several selection events for the 2019 World Cup which will kick off in November. Ben Triandafillou

Pirates strike grand final glory MORNINGTON Pirates Baseball Club has topped off a thrilling season with two grand final victories on Saturday 1 September and Sunday 9 September. The Pirates’ Senior C2 side scored a narrow one-run victory over Berwick at the Bonbeach Bluejays ground in Chelsea on Sunday 9 September, while the under-16s Junior Pirates’ side landed a convincing win against Frankston Red to take out their grand final, the week prior. Mornington Baseball Club president Matt Hardie said it was a top effort by all five of their final’s sides to make it so far. “It’s the most we’ve had playing in the finals for a long time,” Hardie said. “To have four teams also playing in the grand final was awesome from the clubs point of view, and while the juniors are always consistent and competitive it was good to see our

senior teams also making it through.” In the seniors, the C2’s played out a nail-biter against Berwick where they made up four runs in the final innings to score the grand final victory, 10-9. The A1’s also played against Dandenong on Sunday 9 September for the championship flag but giving away an early lead was costly for the senior side. Having been down 12-1 at one stage in the game, the A1’s managed to fight back and end the game 12-9 but unfortunately it was a case of “too little, too late” for the Pirates’ side. Hardie said, “The A1’s did an amazing job to get back into the game after giving away big lead.” In the juniors, the under-16s led from start to finish to take-out their grand final match against Frankston Red, 6-2. The under-12s Pirates side also competed on Saturday 1 September and had a close game against Bonbeach but eventually finished runners-up with the final score being, 9-3. The Mornington Baseball Club celebrated their great season at their clubrooms in Mornington, following the A1’s grand final on Sunday 9 September. Ben Triandafillou

Mt Eliza celebrate 50 year growth MOUNT Eliza Netball Club have gone from strength to strength since they formed in 1968 and on Sunday 16 September the club celebrated their 50th anniversary at the Howard Parker Reserve, Mt Eliza. Working in unison with their presentation day, the Mt Eliza Netball Club had a turnout of over 550 people attending the family-fun day. Mt Eliza Netball Club president Holly Simmons said it was a great day to look back at the clubs history and celebrate the season just gone. “We had several of our life members there and there was a lot of reminiscing going on so it was a really great day over all,” she said. The Mount Eliza Netball Club,

which initially started out as the Mt Eliza Basketball Club with five teams to their name, has grown into the largest netball club on the Mornington Peninsula with 290 players and 29 teams under their care. This season alone, the Mt Eliza Netball Club had 29 teams competing in the FDNA, with 21 sides eligible for finals. Of those 21 sides, 15 of them made their way into the finals. Then on Saturday 15 September, Mt Eliza recorded seven grand final victories from their nine sides that competed in the “pouring rain and hailstorms” at Jubilee Park. Simmons said it was a massive effort from all involved but participation will always remain the main aim

for the grassroots club. “We are absolutely thrilled with our year,” she said. “We do need to remember that we are a grassroots club so a lot of it is about participation and we try not to focus so much on the end result, but there’s still lots of kids that want to have success so it’s great to have nine in the grand final and have seven come home on grand final day.” The Mt Eliza Netball Club will be updating their “history” page on their website, so if you want to find out more about the club’s history visit: www.mtelizanetballclub.com.au/ about-menc/history.
